Chapter 178: Resolving the Misunderstanding
Jun Shitong didn't believe it, she continued to bow her head and put on her shoes, completely ignoring Song Yan's sad face.
Song Yan stared at Jun Shitong tightly, and he bent down and grabbed Jun Shitong's wrist.
"Your father is dead, and I killed him." Rong Han gritted his teeth and yelled at Jun Shitong.
Tears of bean size slid down her cheeks, and Jun Shitong's heart was as uncomfortable as if she had been cut by a thousand knives.
"Smack!"
Song Yan's head tilted to the side, and he only felt a hot pain in his cheeks.
"What about the Third Emperor Brother?" Jun Shitong looked at Song Yan.
She trembled all over, and looked at Song Yan's gaze more and more like she was looking at a stranger.
"Ruyu was arrested by the eldest prince." Song Yan frowned slightly, and he raised his eyes to meet Jun Shitong's eyes. "Because he killed the emperor."
Jun Shitong's legs were paralyzed, and she sat on the bed, her eyes were extremely hollow.
The meaning of these words Jun Shitong suddenly understood that Jun Ruyu had helped Song Yan bear the guilt.
"Do you still have a heart?" Jun Shitong questioned Song Yan. "My father raised you and made you an equal to the prince since you were a child. The Third Emperor Brother treats you like a brother, do you feel pain in your heart when you treat them like this? ”
Jun Shitong's eyes were red, and her fair face was already a little red at this time.
She was a little choked up when she spoke, and Jun Shitong was very disappointed in Song Yan.
"My father and mother were killed by your father, and you asked me to be grateful to him?" Song Yan felt funny. "As for Ruyu, I also feel extremely guilty."
When it came to Jun Ruyu, Song Yan's tone was obviously low.
"How much else are you hiding from me?" Jun Shitong couldn't help frowning when she heard Song Yan's words.
"Don't you want to hear it, okay, I'll tell you now, why I killed your father, why I poisoned you."
In the sixteenth year of the Great Xingguo calendar, the first emperor was defeated and killed himself in the glacial lake outside the city. And the fifteenth prince ascended the throne and became the youngest emperor of Daxing.
Song Yan's father is the right-hand man of the emperor's side, Wen can arrange troops, martial arts can dominate the storm, the emperor can successfully ascend the throne, and he has made great contributions.
He accompanied the emperor to fight against people's doubts, and also helped the emperor calm the war.
But at the celebration banquet of the emperor's accession to the throne, he was brutally killed by the emperor.
That year, Song Yan was not yet born.
Song Yan's mother stood by the window, watching the sword stab into her husband's body and watching him lie in a pool of blood. He looked at Song Yan's mother at the last moment and asked her to leave quickly.
After the death of the head of the family, the Song family lived up to its past glory. The emperor treats the Song family very well, especially after Song Yan was born, it can be said that he regarded it as his own.
So everyone in the world said that the emperor was kind-hearted and grateful. But only Song Yan's mother knows what kind of hypocritical person the emperor is.
In order to survive, and even more so that Song Yan can live safely, Song Yan's mother can only swallow her anger and pretend to be very grateful to the emperor.
"Fortunately, I didn't live in vain in the palace, and I met you and Ruyu." The corners of Song Yan's mouth rose slightly, "It's also some of his debts." ”
Jun Shitong's face was solemn at this time, she leaned on the bed as if she had lost her soul, opened her mouth to comfort, but she didn't know what to say.
What reason does she have to comfort Song Yan, after all, she is the daughter of Song Yan's father and enemy.
"When I was eight years old, I was juggling with Ruyu in the imperial garden, and I accidentally bumped into the emperor pulling and pulling at my mother, and my mother didn't obey and told me why my father died. Your father was so angry that on the third day he beheaded my family on the basis of finding evidence that my father had committed adultery with the enemy. ”
"Ruyu knocked his head outside Zhengyang Palace and begged him to let me go." Song Yan's eyes flashed with tears.
That was also the first time Song Yan felt that Jun Ruyu really regarded him as a friend.
Jun Shitong's eyes fluttered, and the guilt in his chest was like a turbulent wave.
"So I killed him with my own hands in Zhengyang Palace, avenging my father and mother, and hundreds of unjust souls up and down the Song family, where was my mistake?" Song Yan was emotional and questioned Jun Shitong.
Jun Shitong pursed her lips tightly, unable to say a word.
"Why did I poison you?" Song Yan chuckled. "I'm afraid you already knew that you were the body of Jin Yuan, and your heart had the miraculous effect of curing all kinds of poisons. Your father was poisoned by the queen, and he only wanted to raise you well, so he took your heart and cured you. ”
Jun Shitong couldn't bear it anymore, she covered her cheeks with her hands, and actually lowered her head and cried.
In the past ten years of the long palace, Jun Shitong's heart is like a mirror, but she has to pretend to be the most confused person in the entire palace. was used as a medicine primer by his father, and was used as a tool to threaten his father by his eldest brother. Jun Shitong doesn't look like she is in a rolling purgatory at all times.
"You only remember that I poisoned you in order to survive and not be executed by your father, so that he could keep me to treat you, but you forgot why you have survived until now." Song Yan grinned.
If he hadn't poisoned Jun Shitong, Jun Shitong would have been killed by the emperor ten years ago.
"Your poison has long been cured."
Song Yan said that Jun Shitong only felt five thunders hit the top, she raised her head and looked at Song Yan with teary eyes.
"I never thought of poisoning you, you vomit blood a lot, it's all caused by the deep depression in your heart." Song Yan explained with Jun Shitong.
So when Jun Zhiyao brought the divine doctor over to treat Jun Shitong, Song Yan would be so excited. Because if Jiangnan was really a so-called medical skill, it would be impossible not to find out, and Jun Shitong's body would have healed a long time ago. can find out, Jun Shitong will not be able to escape death.
In this game, Jun Zhiyao just wanted to gain attention in front of the emperor, but he almost took Jun Shitong's life.
"I'm sorry." What she wanted to say was in her heart, Jun Shitong opened her mouth and could only say these three words.
finally said what had been held in his heart for a long time, and Song Yan was relieved.
"You can rest for a while, now that the palace has been turned upside down and the new emperor is about to ascend the throne, you can stay in the Three Emperors' Mansion with peace of mind. At least the territory of your third emperor brother is much safer than Yongle Palace. ”
The atmosphere around him was gloomy, and Song Yan guessed that Jun Shitong must be extremely uncomfortable now. He didn't bother much, and turned to leave after greeting.
"Song Yan." Jun Shitong suddenly called out to Song Yan.
Song Yan was stunned, and then stopped.
The two didn't know how long they were silent, Song Yan suddenly turned his head, rushed forward and hugged Jun Shitong.
Feeling the warmth of the person in his arms, Song Yan felt stable for no reason.
He was at a stalemate for three years because of a misunderstanding with Jun Shitong, and his former close lovers became enemies who never got along with each other in the blink of an eye, and Song Yan was not in pain.
Jun Shitong sobbed, and Song Yan's eyes were also slightly red.
Shangguan Mansion.
The first emperor died, and the news of giving the position of prince to the eldest prince was rumored.
For a while, the people were boiling, and the palace was busy with the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor.
"Yu'er."
When Lord Shangguan saw Shangguan Yu coming in, he struggled to sit up.
Now Lord Shangguan is weak and emaciated, and he is no longer as tough as before.
"Dad, you lie down." Shangguan Yu hurriedly stepped forward and carefully supported Lord Shangguan.
"There is such a big thing in the government today, have you been affected?" Lord Shangguan leaned against the head of the bed, his voice low and low.
As he spoke, he coughed several times in quick succession.
"Not really." Shangguan Yu sighed helplessly. "Shangguan Mansion didn't have a grudge with the eldest prince in the past, not to mention that I just got a small official position as an errand boy, and he won't target me."
"It's just that the third prince is ......" Shangguan Yu was also very worried when he knew that Jun Ruyu was arrested and put in prison.
Murdering the emperor is a capital crime, Shangguan Yu didn't believe that Jun Ruyu would do such a stupid thing, he always felt that there was something hidden in it.
"I'm just going to tell you about it." Lord Shangguan nodded. "The three princes are kind to us, when I was still on an errand in the imperial court, it didn't help to crowd out the three princes, I was almost sent to the frontier, and he and Lord Yun worked together to save me. The third prince is cold and ruthless on the surface, but his heart is kinder than anyone in the court. We can't forget our kindness! ”
"Dad, I know." Shangguan Yu was also very touched when he heard Lord Shangguan's words.
"I'm sick and useless now. I have to ask you, I must find a way to rescue the three princes. Lord Shangguan got up and patted Shangguan Yu on the shoulder.
"Okay." Shangguan Yu's face was firm, and he solemnly agreed.
He originally had the idea of saving Jun Ruyu in his heart, and when he was mentioned by Lord Shangguan, Shangguan Yu was even more determined. Even if he only has a meager strength, as Lord Shangguan said, he can't forget Jun Ruyu's kindness.
After coming out of Lord Shangguan's room, Shangguan Yu prepared to leave the mansion without saying a word.
"Where are you going?"
happened to bump into Qiu Yi in the back garden, Qiu Yi was strange that he was in a hurry, and hurriedly stopped in front of Shangguan Yu.
"I'll go to the Prime Minister's Mansion." The corners of Shangguan Yu's mouth rose, and he barely pulled out a smile at Qiu Yi. "Now that the three princes are in prison, I plan to discuss with Lord Yun to see if there is a way to rescue the three princes."
Shangguan Yu could only think of Yun Shichang for help.
"Are you crazy?" Qiu Yi frowned tightly. "The third prince committed a capital crime, do you think that if you and Lord Yun go to the eldest prince to intercede, the eldest prince will be able to let him go?"
"At least we can discuss it together." Shangguan Yu's face was heavy.
"Think about it, the eldest prince has announced at the tributary meeting that he wants to establish the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yun Xiaoxiao. Now that the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Great Prince are all the way, maybe Lord Yun can really ignore him and the entire Prime Minister's Mansion because of you? Qiu Yi patiently explained to Shangguan Yu.
What Qiu Yi said was reasonable and well-founded, Shangguan Yu hadn't thought that it was mentioned by Qiu Yi now, but it was indeed the case.
"So what should we do now? You can't see death without help. Shangguan Yu's brows furrowed.
This matter is really tricky, and looking at Jun Ruyu horizontally and vertically is a dead end.
"Don't panic yet, the canonization ceremony has not yet been held, I don't know what plans the prince has in the future. It's better to wait, as long as the third prince is still alive, there is hope for rescuing him. I just don't want you to die, the consequences outweigh the losses. ”
Shangguan Yu felt that what Qiu Yi said was reasonable, so he obeyed her first and did not take action.
In prison.
"Didn't expect that, did you? The three princes became prisoners. ”
