Chapter 542
"The Crown Princess! The son of the world killed someone in a brothel! Now he's in prison! ”
"You, what did you say?" When Gu Yuetong heard this, her face changed greatly!
"Mother, it's true! The prince is really in prison! Ruyi couldn't cry and said, "What should I do now?" ”
When Gu Yuetong heard this, she seemed to be stunned, and it took a long time to react, and she hurriedly grabbed Ruyi's shoulders and asked eagerly, "Who saw my eldest brother kill someone?" Who is it! ”
"Niangniang, I heard that the prince was the three prostitutes who were killed in public, and everyone saw it......" Ruyi said in a low voice.
When Gu Yuetong heard this, her face immediately turned a little pale: "Then in this case, is there ironclad evidence?" ”
Ruyi nodded with tears in her eyes.
"This murder is a great crime!" Gu Yuetong languished on the ground, and said with a desperate face: "With such a big case, how could the emperor easily spare my eldest brother?" He's in danger this time! ”
"Niangniang, let's think of a way to save the world's life!" Ruyi said in a low voice: "Otherwise, if the prince dies, the Hou Ye will make the second son the prince, and the lady is seriously ill, and the Hou Mansion is completely someone else's world!" ”
"I know what you're talking about! But the point, how do I save him? Gu Yuetong said with a face full of despair: "Last time, this palace has already threatened the emperor last time, this time, he may not be willing to listen to me!" ”
Ruyi heard this, and hurriedly persuaded: "Niangniang, the emperor didn't do it last time!" He still gave the second lady a marriage decree! ”
"That's right! That's it! Gu Yuetong hurriedly said: "I can go and beg him again!" ”
But Ruyi didn't agree, she shook her head and said, "Niangniang, the slave suggests that you don't go to the emperor about this matter!" ”
"Why is that?" Gu Yuetong's face was full of surprise.
Ruyi glanced at Gu Yuetong pleadingly, and said sadly: "Niangniang, the prince ignores you, everyone in this palace sees it, I don't know how many people want to step on you, some people want to seek your crown princess, and some people want to seek your life!" The slave said this, just to beg the mother, save this opportunity for later! In case one day you have a hurdle that you can't pass, and your life is in danger, can you come to the emperor again? ”
When Gu Yuetong heard this, she looked at Ruyi blankly, and said in a deep voice: "You mean that you want me to turn a blind eye to my eldest brother and keep that chance to save my life to myself?" ”
"Niangniang, people don't kill the heavens and the earth for themselves!" Ruyi lamented.
Gu Yuetong suddenly kicked her to the ground, kicked her to the ground, and said angrily: "But that's my eldest brother!" How can I turn a blind eye? The words landed, and the tears on her face fell in strings.
"Niangniang, with the Hou Ye here, she will definitely be fine! Why push yourself? Ruyi didn't seem to know the pain at all, she rushed forward, hugged Gu Yuetong's legs tightly, and begged: "Niangniang."
Now you have to think more about yourself! ”
Gu Yuetong just cried, and this time she didn't push her away.
"I can give myself a chance to live, but I also have to save my big brother!" After a long time, Gu Yuetong made up his mind.
Ruyi was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "Niangniang is wise! What do you want to do? ”
"You go and contact Prince Lian, I want to see him." Gu Yuetong said with a low and expressionless face.
Ruyi's eyes widened suddenly, she looked at Gu Yuetong in disbelief, shook her head violently, and said, "Niangniang!" You can't! You know that Prince Nariam has a different purpose for you, but why do you still ......?"
"Giggles!" When Gu Yuetong heard this, she suddenly burst out laughing.
Ruyi felt very weird, and couldn't help but stop.
Gu Yuetong smiled enough, and then raised his eyes to look at her, his eyes were full of smiles: "He has a different purpose for me!" However, this at least proves that this man has me in his heart! Look at the prince again! What has he done for me since my wedding? ”
Ruyi was speechless, but she saw that Gu Yuetong's thoughts had a tendency to deviate, and she hurriedly persuaded: "Niangniang! Wait! The slave believes that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will one day find out that you are good to him......"
"When? Waiting for my gray hair and my teeth to fall out? Gu Yuetong said sarcastically: "Or, wait until I die?" Haven't I been wasting my time all my life? Is it worth it for him? ”
"Why isn't it worth it? He is the crown prince, and he may be the future king......" Ruyi was still trying to fully serve Gu Yuetong, but even she felt that these words were very empty and hypocritical, and there was no substance at all.
"Hehe......" Gu Yuetong laughed lowly: "Since that day when he treated me like that, I have already sobered up, Prince Xuanyuan Yan, he is not the lover of my life at all!" I waited, waited, and suffered for so long, but in the end, I got such a result! From then on, I decided to forget about him! ”
Ruyi looked at Gu Yuetong smiling more and more, and the tears on her face flowed, her heart was extremely uncomfortable, at this moment, she knew that she should dissuade her, but she couldn't say a word at all.
his prince! Let their crown princess live in such pain, he should have gotten out a long time ago!
"Where was he when I was defiled by the emperor? Where was my eldest brother when he was imprisoned? Gu Yuetong shook her head and said, "Let's go!" This is the last time he will be mentioned, and it won't be in the future, Ruyi, you go! Send a message to Xuanyuan Shu, be secret, don't let people find out the traces! ”
"Yes, sis!" Ruyi said as if he had made up his mind.
Gu Yuetong wiped away her tears and smiled at her: "Okay, you go." ”
Ruyi nodded, turned around and walked out.
Gu Yuetong seemed to lose her whole body
Suddenly he lost his strength and lay down on the magnificent carpet of the palace.
Those words were not so much for Ruyi as for herself.
But the strange thing is that at this moment, there is no trace of tears in her eyes.
Soon, Ruyi came back, and when she saw her master lying on the carpet, she was startled, and hurriedly ran over to help her up: "Niangniang! How are you? ”
"I'm fine." Gu Yuetong let Ruyi help herself up, looked at her with a smile, and said, "What's the matter, has the letter been sent?" ”
Ruyi nodded and said, "It's sent out." We domesticated so many pigeons, but we didn't raise them for nothing. ”
"That's good." Gu Yuetong said in a low voice.
Ruyi said in a low voice: "Niangniang, in order to prevent the pigeon from being hunted away and the information is leaked, the slave maid did not write your name on the information, nor did she write Prince Lian. ”
"Good." When Gu Yuetong heard this, she smiled slightly and said, "You are very thoughtful. ”
Ruyi glanced at her in a low voice, and asked in a low voice: "Niangniang, do you really not regret doing this?" In case one day the prince changes his mind and ......, "Tusheng Shengba."
"Even if he changes his mind, I am still insensitive to thanks." Gu Yuetong glanced at Ruyi expressionlessly, and her tone was a little calm: "Ruyi, you'd better remember not to mention the prince's name in front of me in the future!" Otherwise, I'll punish you severely! ”
"Yes, sissy! The slave will never dare again! Ruyi was startled and hurriedly whispered.
Gu Yuetong's tone softened at this time, she sighed and said, "Okay, you don't have to blame yourself, just remember the words of this palace." Saying that, she paused and said, "This palace wants to take a bath, you go and prepare fragrant soup and bathing and other things." ”
"Yes, sissy." Ruyi replied in a low voice, turned around and retreated.
That night, they received a reply from Xuanyuan Shu.
Gu Yuetong was in a good mood, and hurriedly instructed Ruyi to take the paper roll that was untied from the pigeon's leg, and looked down for herself.
I saw a few words written on it with the traces of the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing: The letter has been received, and I will do my best to save it.
"He agreed!" Gu Yuetong smiled very happily.
"That's good!" Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "With his help, presumably, the hope of the son of the world being rescued will be greater." ”
Gu Yuetong nodded and said, "Who said it wasn't?" You don't know my father's stubborn temper, the eldest brother committed such a big murder, and if you want him to intercede with the emperor, it is simply impossible! Although Prince Lian is not of much use, but at least one person dares to intercede for him in front of the emperor, the palace is already satisfied, and what the final result is, after all, it depends on the emperor's own will. ”
"It's hard to be a mother, I think it's so open." Ruyi sighed and said.
When Gu Yuetong heard this, she laughed at herself and said, "In this deep palace, if you can't open it, someone will force you to open it." ”
The man you're talking about is the crown prince, right? Or add the emperor. Ruyi thought silently in her heart, looked up and looked at Gu Yuetong quietly, and sighed deeply.
What the hell is this palace? He persecuted a chaste martyr like this!
Ruyi thought, no matter what Gu Yuetong did in the future, she thought, she would not be too surprised. Because, in her heart, all this is not the fault of her master, it is all forced by these people!
……
The brothel of the Jinye Houfu Shizi murder, this case is too serious, and the next day, the emperor personally asked Liu Yuanshan, the secretary of the criminal department.
"Gu Shizi grew up under my watch, this child has a very gentle temperament, how could he suddenly make a murderous move? Lord Liu, have you checked carefully? ”
When Liu Yuanshan heard this, he was startled, and hurriedly explained: "Back to the emperor, the lower officials have checked, the reason why Gu Shizi killed people in public was because those prostitutes insulted him in public, and he ...... on a whim."
"Lord Liu, I heard that your own son was also injured, right?" At this moment, the emperor suddenly interrupted Liu Yuanshan's words and said lazily.
When Liu Yuanshan heard this, his heart froze, and he hurriedly replied: "Yes! The child's life-root was destroyed by Gu Shizi's own hands! Poor old minister, he has to be such an only son! By the end, he was crying.
"Oh. Then you're pathetic. When the emperor heard this, he asked in a light tone, "But why did Gu Xiaoye do this?" What is the reason, Lord Liu hasn't told me yet! ”
When Liu Yuanshan heard this, his face turned pale, but he said hesitantly: "Go back to the emperor, minister, I don't know ......."
"Not clear? If you don't know well, you dare to come and tell me that you have found out the truth of everything? With a roar, the emperor slapped the imperial case heavily and said angrily: "Liu Yuanshan, I see that you are sitting too comfortably in the position of the secretary of the criminal department, right?" You don't even know how to investigate the case, and you dare to come to see me? ”
Liu Yuanshan was frightened by the emperor's words and that action, and hurriedly said: "Weichen knows his mistake!" Wechen knows his mistake! ”
"Get up! Go back and investigate it well, and then go back and forth, if there is a lie. Be careful that I have removed your position as the secretary of the Criminal Department! The emperor leaned back in his chair and said coldly: "By the way, there is also Gu Xiaoye, after all, he is the son of Jinye Hou, for his sake, you should be merciful to Gu Xiaoye's subordinates, if it is not necessary, those big punishments will not be used." ”
"Yes! Your Majesty, Weichen obeys the order! Liu Yuanshan wiped the cold sweat from his head. A full mouth should be lowered.
"Go down! If you don't investigate and come up with a result, you won't be allowed to see me. The emperor waved his hand, closed his eyes, and said.
"Wechen obeys." Liu Yuanshan responded
With a bang, he immediately turned around and exited the imperial study.
But wait for the cold wind outside to blow. A sudden resentment welled up in his heart.
Obviously, Gu Xiaoye was angry and brutalized, and his son became a eunuch, after their Liu family was wiped out, the emperor wanted to remove him! Still do everything possible to maintain Gu Xiaoye's kid, why?
Is it just because his father is a brocade leaf?
Liu Yuanshan's heart immediately became angry, and at this moment, his heart was full of strong resentment towards Jinye Hou's father and son.
These two people are the emperor's favor, so they are so unscrupulous, right?
It's a pity that he has to clamp his tail and be a man now, and he can't offend them, after being an official for so many years, Liu Yuanshan feels so aggrieved for the first time.
But he couldn't do anything!
But the strange thing is that several days have passed since this incident. Jin Yehou has never been to the Criminal Department once, he even took leave, and he didn't go to court for a few days, and it was very obvious that he looked like he didn't care, which made the officials feel incredible.
But on the contrary, the emperor still likes to give condolences to this case in public, Liu Yuanshan was always frightened when he went to court, but Gu Xiaoye was very honest and confessed to everything when he asked him, but every time Liu Yuanshan handed his testimony to the emperor, he would be reprimanded by the emperor.
After a few times, Liu Yuanshan gradually understood that the emperor was blatantly trying to protect Gu Xiaoye! committed such a murderous crime, but the emperor didn't want to condemn him!
This shocked his heart!
At the same time, people of all stripes in the DPRK and China have maintained a high degree of concern about this matter.
The only one who doesn't care about it. Probably only Gu Ruoxi is alone.
On that day, Ren Jiaying ordered someone to send a letter to ask her to meet her in the teahouse, she noticed that something was wrong, so she didn't go, and sent Yun Duo and Liuli to Ren's house, but the news she brought back surprised her.
"Miss! Miss Ren said, the invitation was not handed to you by her! Mrs. Ren has been a little uncomfortable in the past two days, Miss Ren has always served her around, and she has never even invited a few girls who play well on weekdays, let alone you, Miss? Liuli said indignantly: "I don't know who it is, under her banner, deliberately deceived Miss You!" ”
Hearing this, Gu Ruoxi pondered for a moment and asked, "Liuli, the person who sent the invitation in at that time, but the person next to Miss Ren?" ”
"Back to Miss, the slave didn't see it, and the letter was sent in by the porter." Liuli said in a deep voice: "Later, the slave maid asked the concierge, and said that the person who came to deliver the letter was a maid, who looked very delicate and not tall, when she was in the Ren family, the slave maid specially looked carefully, and Miss Ren was indeed surrounded by people who echoed this condition. ”
"That is to say, that person is most likely the person next to Jiaying." Gu Ruoxi said in a deep voice.
Liuli said again: "However, when the slave maid took out the invitation card and showed it to Miss Ren, she said it on the spot
, The invitation was not written by her, and took out the calligraphy she practiced daily, and the slave maid read it, and the handwriting was indeed different. ”
When Gu Ruoxi heard this, her eyebrows raised: "This matter should have nothing to do with Jiaying, but it may also be related to other people in the Ren family." ”
"Miss, do you mean ......" Liuli's eyes lit up and she couldn't help asking.
Gu Yuetong shook her head and said, "I don't know what it is, I just have an intuition." ”
"By the way, Miss Ren said, she is indeed very grateful for the chair that Miss ordered someone to send over, but now that Miss is engaged, it is absolutely impossible for her to openly bring her brother to see Miss You." Ruri said.
Gu Ruoxi smiled slightly and said, "I naturally believe this. ”
"By the way, Miss, Miss Ren said that she was very busy during this time and didn't have time to get together with Miss, how about waiting for another half a month? She will personally send her maid Liuying to deliver an invitation to the young lady, I have seen that Liuying, and this time it will never go wrong! The clouds said in a deep voice.
When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he looked at her fixedly, and said in a deep voice: "I always feel that there is a person behind this matter that you and I don't know is calculating, what is the purpose of him pretending to be Jiaying to send me a letter?" None of this is known, but I think the person behind the scenes won't give up easily! ”
"Miss, in that case, don't go to see Miss Ren in the future!" When Liuli heard this, she became anxious.
Gu Ruoxi shook his head and said with a smile: "What if this is also the plan of the person behind the scenes?" He just doesn't want me to meet Jiaying? ”
When Liuli heard this, she was stunned.
"Miss, this is too dangerous anyway." Liuli on the side frowned.
"It's dangerous." Gu Ruoxi nodded and said, "I know, but I have made up my mind as a friend of Jiaying!" ”
