Chapter 460: Knowing Your Own Dead End
Concubine Shu glanced around and said, "Sister, why did Yingying suddenly hide?" Are you afraid that I won't make it? ”
Concubine Shu called her name directly, and did not call herself the palace, as if she was still a close friend in the boudoir.
Concubine De was shocked, bit her lip or appeared from behind the pillar, in the end, she was a friend who had known each other for many years, except for the days after entering the palace, the most companions before entering the palace were each other.
Concubine De stood ten steps away and said, "What are you doing here?" ”
Concubine Shu stared at her depressed appearance, and there was no bitterness between her eyebrows, she beckoned, "Come and eat something." ”
Concubine De thought about it, in fact, she knew that she had committed something, but she was unwilling, and she believed that her father would definitely save her. Now that Concubine Shu came with food, she comforted herself and said that in order to save her strength, it doesn't matter!
She looked at the concubine sitting on the chair, pretended to be calm and walked forward, and finally walked in front of the concubine and sat down by herself.
Concubine De looked at her hands before taking the chopsticks, there was no water in the cold palace, she not only did not wash but also washed her hands, she was still on the ground for a long time yesterday, and the dirt made her frown at this time. After more than ten years of good upbringing, she has no way to eat in such a dirty situation.
Concubine Shu saw it, handed the handkerchief in her hand to Concubine De and said, "Wipe it with a handkerchief first, and then find a way when you are full." ”
Concubine De raised her eyes and glanced at her, silently reached out to take it, and wiped it vigorously.
Concubine Shu couldn't look past it, Concubine De had been wiping it for a long time. He pushed the breakfast on the table and said, "It's important to eat breakfast when it's a big deal." ”
Concubine De didn't even have the strength to scold at this time, put the handkerchief on the table and picked up the chopsticks and ate slowly, even if she was hungry, she ate extremely elegantly, in the past, she poured these breakfasts on the palace maid, and today it tasted like a delicacy, she remembered the black steamed bun and the water at the palace gate.
finally looked at Concubine Shu, "Why are you here, aren't you afraid that the emperor will think too much, aren't you afraid that the slut of the concubine will deliberately smear you." ”
"I came here openly, and the guards outside didn't stop me, so the emperor and the concubine must have acquiesced." Concubine Shu still didn't say about the palace, she had a hunch that Concubine De would not live long. She felt a sense of desolation, from entering the palace to the few months in her heart, she seemed to have passed a few years, and the oath before entering the palace was wiped out without a trace.
Concubine De only recovered a little after eating a bowl of porridge, and continued to eat other foods, as if she was eating the last meal.
"You're here to ask, how did I come into the cold palace, right? Want to hear the truth? Concubine De smiled, full of desolation, and unwilling, she was very unwilling to let herself in because of Yang Fei's little trick.
Concubine Shu really wanted to know why, but she didn't speak, but just looked at Concubine De. It seems that Concubine De will definitely say it.
Concubine De said, "Yanzi, you always want to know like this but don't ask, just stare at others, and the meaning is clear." ”
Concubine Shu still didn't speak.
Concubine De looked at Concubine Shu, but in fact looked at the palace gate behind Concubine Shu, "Do you know why Concubine Guifei has been lying in bed for so many days?" I did it, but I didn't expect that slut to be so fatal, and he didn't die after being stabbed three times. ”
Concubine Shu was stunned along with Bi'er behind her.
"You, how could you do such a thing? No, you don't have any manpower, and you didn't leave the palace on the day of the flower party. Concubine Shu affirmed.
Concubine De smiled and did not say no. "On the night before the flower party, a man in black sneaked into my dormitory late at night, put a knife on my neck, and asked me for 3,000 taels of silver tickets to buy the life of the concubine. I gave. ”
When Concubine Shu heard the news at first glance, her heart turned upside down, and then she heard that Concubine De was threatened, her mind instantly calmed down, and she comforted, "It's not a big deal if you are threatened like this, and you will be fine when the investigation is clear." ”
"Nothing? Last night, I was dressed in black by General Yang, and my father was standing outside the dormitory of the emperor's concubine, and I heard with my own ears that I bought the life of the concubine for 10,000 taels. Concubine De laughed to herself and asked, "Am I attempting to kill?" Will this be sentenced? But my dad will save me. ”
She seemed so confident, but the look on her face couldn't even deceive herself. She knew what the end would be waiting for her.
She still has a lot of people who haven't cleaned up, and she won't be willing to die. Looking at Yanzi, who was full of astonishment, she smiled again. "Yanzi, it's the first time I've called your name after being in the palace for so long, not Concubine Shu. I forgot to tell you, I was still planning to harm you, but unfortunately that plan was bumped into by the little nobleman. Isn't An Meiren disrespectful to us, I wanted to find a male guard to commit adultery with her, and then control her, and let her go to your Shuyan Palace to make trouble, so that you can leave a bad impression on others. It's a pity. ”
Concubine Shu kept looking at her and didn't speak, but Bi'er changed her look of pity just now, and she was very disgusted. Concubine De even wanted to harm her master, and now she risked being suspected of coming to the cold palace to see her.
Concubine De didn't see the anger on Concubine Shu's face, and shook her head even more frustratedly.
Concubine Shu spoke, "Take care, tell me if you have anything missing, I will definitely help if I can." ”
"Do you know you're looking at a dead man right now?"
"Don't you think so yourself? There is no living hope in the heart. Concubine Shu said lightly, stood up and prepared to leave.
Concubine De sat on the chair in a daze, still holding chopsticks in her hand, and saw Concubine Shu go out of the palace gate, sweeping the plates on the table, and there was a cracking sound. Concubine Shu's footsteps did not stop.
When he walked to the door, he saw the steamed buns on the side and the muddy water, his eyes flickered for a moment, and he still walked out of the gate of the cold palace without hesitation.
Concubine De is really guilty of death this time, concubine. This must be inseparable from the concubine, even if there are many doubts, she has no way to solve them one by one.
In Huayan Palace, the palace maid informed Nalan Lan'er of the news that Concubine Shu had gone to the cold palace. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, surprised in her heart, she didn't expect that the two concubines of Shude really had a little affection, and she ran to visit as soon as she learned about it this morning, whether it was to inquire about the news or simply to visit, Concubine Shude was impressive.
The emperor was in a hurry to interrogate Concubine De, but she stopped her, she thought that the cold palace had such a good environment, how could she not let Concubine De appreciate it? I have to extinguish her majesty.
Cai Lian looked at her master and seemed to be in a very good mood, and stepped forward and said, "Master, is Concubine De going to die this time?" ”
Nalan Lan'er shook her head, "Look at what the emperor means." ”
She still has something to ask Concubine De, and she always has to get useful information from the emperor's mouth before her interrogation. Find a suitable time to visit Concubine De.
Wan'er lowered her head and waited on the side, the corners of her mouth raised a triumphant smile, and the whole person looked so weird. The time is ripe, can't wait!
Nalan Lan'er didn't pay attention to Wan'er and only said, "Tonight, we will go to the cold palace to visit Concubine De." ”
Cai Lian was full of joy, and seemed to have seen the fate of Concubine De, but Nalan Lan'er was a little stunned, and she still stepped into the cold palace once.
There was silence for a while, and she didn't sleep well last night, Nalan Lan'er waved them away and entered the dormitory alone.
What will the emperor's verdict be? For the sake of the prime minister, will you let Concubine De go? Her mind flashed back to Concubine De, who knelt on the ground last night and asked the emperor to be lenient, and heard that the prime minister was the most clear about right and wrong, and this time he knew that his daughter was at fault, but he still resolutely took the fault on himself. It's just that Concubine De's reaction is so disgusting.
However, she didn't care much about Concubine De's life and death, not to say that she forgave Concubine De, but that the death penalty could be avoided, and the living crime could not be escaped. Death is a relief. She is even more devoted to keeping Concubine De in the cold palace for the rest of her life.
Thinking like this, she fell asleep, and over there in the imperial study, Ye Wushuang looked at the prime minister and Yang Fei, even after a night he was still angry, she hated the concubines in the harem who were restless and guarded to herself, and she was even more angry that someone had put the idea on Lan'er's head, over the years, he rarely chose a show girl, and last time it was held after the queen mother urged him many times, but he didn't expect that Concubine De, who had only been in the palace for a long time, would dare to be so bold! If you don't kill chickens and monkeys, how can Lan'er's life safety be guaranteed?
"Prime Minister, what else do you have to say? If it's for Concubine De's business, there's no need to say it. Ye Wushuang sat at the table, his hands on his knees, and he looked very unwelcome.
Seeing this look, the prime minister knew that there was no hope for intercession, he knew that his daughter's crime could be punished, the state had national laws and family rules, and he couldn't change it, so he had to suppress the despair in his heart. "Back to the emperor, the old minister has nothing to say, he just wants to know how the emperor will deal with that rebel. Please also let the old minister ...... The old minister saw her for the last time. ”
Yang Fei looked at the prime minister's sad appearance, and felt uncomfortable, but Concubine De not only had the intention of harming Lan'er, but also dared to really harm people, and this person must not stay.
Ye Wushuang's face softened a little, and he sighed and said, "It was the noble concubine who was hurt, and I have already handed Concubine De to her disposal, as for the result, I don't know what the result will be." ”
After speaking, I remembered that Nalan Lan'er looked at the prime minister's unbearable appearance, and added, "The lightest punishment is also to treat others in the way of others, the concubine received three knives that day, and she also gave Concubine De three knives, and she is no longer Concubine De." ”
After hearing this, the prime minister felt a sigh in his heart, three knives! That didn't kill her, but now she can't live by her own sin, and if that's the case, there is still a glimmer of hope for his daughter.
Yang Fei glanced up at the emperor, if he let someone with a heart stab, he could kill him with one knife and see the prince of Yama with three knives.
Of course he wouldn't tell the prime minister about this, but now that Concubine De has been decided, Lan'er said that let Concubine De reflect and reflect in the cold palace, so as not to have too many dreams at night, and should have been dealt with earlier.
The prime minister knelt on the ground and thanked him repeatedly, Ye Wushuang sighed, "I just said this, it's up to her to decide what the concubine wants, after all, Concubine De owes her a life and should pay it back." ”
The prime minister still kowtows and bows, he understands this truth, he can't look down on this old mother, and it doesn't hurt if he sees it for the child.
