Chapter 307: See You Again
Ten days after the emperor's funeral, the death knell of the capital rang for ten days, King Chao has rarely returned home, most of the time is in the palace to deal with the government, very few times back and Xiong Daishan also went to the backyard in a hurry, under the careful care of the doctor, Du Yiyi's injury is getting better day by day.
The initiator of that fire would often appear in front of her, and she would listen to Ning Chaoge talk about the hatred of the people of Dahe for Shen Ke now, and even more so listen to him talk about the concerted efforts of the imperial court and the military.
The day after tomorrow is the day of the emperor's funeral, the death knell has been ringing non-stop since early in the morning, the soldiers and horses of the Governor's Mansion began to assemble early in the morning to clean up the road, Du Yiyi is difficult to get out of this room, of course, she can't see the spring breeze of Ning Chaoge now, the only thing she cares about is the life and death of Shen Ke and Ning Zhiyuan, although Ning Chaoge is in power, Ning Zhiyuan is still alive, although the whole country is wanted, Shen Ke is still alive, they are all alive, she will continue to live, alive out of this room.
Early in the morning, Ning Chaoge came, now he is a day of great opportunities, the court began to return to one under his rectification and purge, from the cabinet to the six ministries have come to a big purge, and the military because of the emperor's death has no good impression of Shen Ke, in the process of this arrest is also very hard, the court and the military have reached unprecedented harmony, Ning Chaoge ascended the throne is just around the corner.
Just wait until the emperor's funeral, and Ning Chaoge will ascend the throne.
"Do you know why I kept your life?" In front of Du Yiyi, Ning Chaoge and Du Yiyi call themselves I, the throne is already in his pocket, and it is also a very pleasant thing to be able to show off his income in front of the women of his political enemies.
"I'm waiting to wipe out Shen Ke's party and everything!" Ning Chaoge was already accustomed to asking and answering himself in front of Du Yiyi: "Do you guess how the people who pushed you out at this time will treat you because of Shen Ke?" ”
Thinking of the perfect plan in his heart, Ning Chaoge laughed softly, no matter how deep Shen Ke hid, it was impossible to watch Du Yiyi die without saving, now that he had tried his best to destroy the beautiful image of Shen Ke stationed in people's hearts, as soon as Du Yiyi went out, there was absolutely no way to live.
Du Yiyi was still silent, Shen Ke was not an impulsive person, and she believed that Shen Ke had already launched an action in secret, if she really deserved to die, there would be no regrets if she died.
That night, some news spread from the palace and began to spread.
Shen Ke rebelled, the emperor ordered the whole country to be arrested, Shen Ke's sister Rui Princess Du Yiyi was imprisoned to cover Shen Ke, and the emperor ordered him to die, but he was sent by Shen Ke's party to steal peaches for Li, and Shen Ke, who learned of this, rebelled and broke into the palace to save his sister Du Yiyi, set fire to Ningyuan Palace, and killed the emperor. On the day when the emperor enters the earth, Du Yiyi will be corrected on the spot outside the noon gate to comfort the emperor's spirit in the sky.
This news spread quickly, and it reached Ning Zhiyuan's ears as soon as possible.
During the day, Ning Zhiyuan was in the palace to guard the emperor's spirit, and he would return to the Rui Wang's Mansion at night, and the news was learned by Qin Huai.
Ning Zhiyuan, who heard the news, rushed to the ice cellar shirtless, lifted the lid of the coffin, and saw the black, deformed, and stinky face, and was even more incredulous.
"Where did the news come from?" Obviously, the corpse had been parked in the Rui Wang's Mansion for so many days, and he didn't believe that the emperor, who was bent on putting Shen Ke to death, would leave Du Yiyi's life.
"From the Chao Wang's Mansion, I squatted outside the palace for a long time, and saw two prisoner carts covered in black cloth going to the palace." Qin Huai didn't believe it either, but a glimmer of hope is better than no hope, these days Ning Zhiyuan is getting more and more depressed day by day, and even the medicine has stopped, and he is bent on dying for what Rui Wangfu knows up and down.
"Follow me into the palace!"
Whether Ning Chaoge spread false news in order to attract Shen Ke or whether it was true, Ning Zhiyuan had to take a look at it clearly, trotted all the way back to Huai Yuju, put on his coat, and he rushed to the palace in a sedan chair.
In order to facilitate the handling of the government, Ning Chaoge has lived in the palace, Ning Yuan Palace is being repaired, and the original appearance has been framed on the ruins in ten days, Ning Chaoge lives in Shejian Palace, hundreds of meters away from Ning Yuan Palace.
Since the emperor's funeral, Ning Zhiyuan has not had much intersection with this second brother, even when Ning Chaoge dismissed Yan Xinglu and others from their official positions, he didn't snort, but today he couldn't suppress the eagerness in his heart, half a moon, he didn't think about the half moon that couldn't sleep all night, he had to know whether he was having a nightmare or a sweet dream.
Ning Chaoge was dealing with today's troubles, and his people had been filled in after the purge of the officials of the cabinet and the six departments of the Imperial Procuratorate, but due to his lack of experience, the government was twice as complicated as when the emperor was alive.
When the news was released, Ning Chaoge knew that Ning Zhiyuan would find him, and Ning Zhiyuan was also his henchman who could get rid of it, and when the people of the whole country complained about Shen Ke, he didn't mind taking advantage of Du Yiyi's disaster to pull Ning Zhiyuan off the throne of the prince and become a prisoner.
Faced with Ning Zhiyuan's question, he directly asked Ning Zhiyuan to take him to see Du Yiyi.
Still in the damp and gloomy prison, Ning Zhiyuan unexpectedly saw Du Yiyi, who he thought was dead.
At that moment, he almost cried bitterly.
can really see Ning Zhiyuan to confirm that he is safe and sound, Du Yiyi is also a mixture of flavors, only after life and death, do you know the preciousness of reunion, although this reunion is very close to death.
The day after tomorrow is her death, he doesn't want Ning Zhiyuan to do anything stupid because he sees her side, she actually hopes that he doesn't know this, he won't be sad again if he doesn't know, and he won't lose it again if he doesn't know.
But what she didn't want to see was exactly what Ning Chaoge wanted to see.
Therefore, Ning Chaoge gave a great gift, and Ning Zhi had a far-sighted view of Du Yiyi.
Look at each other without words, never get tired of looking at each other.
The two of them, who both thought that the other party had gone one step ahead of them, met each other in the prison, and it was like a dream.
"Your hands?" Du Yiyi's right hand was wrapped in layers of white cloth, revealing that there were scars on several fingers that had healed, and what she had experienced in the past half a month Ning Zhiyuan didn't know, but he knew that it was the hardest thing for her to survive.
"Burned by fire, it's fine!" Thinking of the stupidity of begging for death at that time, Du Yiyi chuckled and opened the messy hair in front of her eyes and looked at the person in front of her carefully.
Half a month has not seen, Ning Zhiyuan has lost a lot of weight, the already thin cheeks and cheekbones have been highlighted, the scarlet eyes and crystal moist tears are swirling in them, this is not the ruthless and cold-blooded Ning Zhiyuan in her impression, and when they reunited after half a month, she found that she had seen a new him.
In the past, he could do whatever it took for his own interests, he could smile at the life and death of others with disdain, he was strict with himself and cruel to the people around him, and he was so cold that he was like a demon from hell, she always looked at this man in her impression, when he was knocked unconscious by him in Aicheng and brought back to the Rui Wang's Mansion and was not free, when he threatened himself with Yan Xinglu again and again, he threatened Shen Ke with himself, this was her husband and her enemy.
Now he is haggard and sad as if he will die at any time, she heard Ning Chaoge say about him and understands that he may really have let go of his power in desperation now, without that unattainable goal, Ning Zhiyuan's ruthlessness and cold-bloodedness in his bones have faded a lot, he has never seen him cry, and when she sees him in tears today, Du Yiyi probably understands.
While she was missing him, there was still someone in this world who was missing herself.
"You've suffered all these days!" He didn't want to ask her how she came back from the dead, in the face of this hard-won happiness, he didn't need to ask anything, when he came to the prison, Ning Zhiyuan was unprecedentedly frightened, afraid of disappointment and forced himself to believe, the person in front of him had not been cleared for half a month, but he would not admit that he was wrong with the familiar eyes and familiar face, at this moment, he just wanted to open this prison door and touch this face with his own hands, the real face.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Father-in-law Chang, who had been watching from behind, respectfully walked to Ning Zhiyuan's side and reminded him to leave.
finally reunited, how could Ning Zhiyuan be willing to leave, he wanted to be with her, even if he walked into this prison door.
"His Royal Highness King Rui, don't embarrass the minions, Du Yiyi is a felon, and His Royal Highness King Rui can come to visit is already an extrajudicial grace to His Royal Highness King Chao!" Chang Gonggong has been by Ning Chaoge's side after the emperor's funeral, compared to Shu Ruhai, who is still running outside, he is the second big man in the inner prison has been one step ahead of the high branches, Shu Ruhai has always been loyal to the emperor, and it is difficult to make a breakthrough in the face of the emperor and Shu Ruhai for more than 20 years. In the future, the person who can walk as the emperor's spokesman in the palace and outside the palace is very father-in-law, and his words are much heavier than the words of Ning Zhiyuan, who has no power in his hands.
Now that the palace is in charge of Ning Chaoge, as long as Ning Chaoge doesn't let him stay here, the people in the palace have thousands of ways to take him out.
Ning Zhiyuan held the iron railing motionless, Chang Gonggong's patience was slowly exhausted, and when he waved his hand to signal the guards to step forward, Du Yiyi and Ning Zhiyuan, who held the fist on the iron railing, shook their heads and began to persuade: "You go back!" Don't worry about me, you still have what you have to do! ”
Ning Chaoge rebelled and killed the king, Shen Ke needs to be innocent, she also needs an innocence, and thousands of people in the world need a truth.
A year of husband and wife, although Ning Zhiyuan has never had intimate actions with Du Yiyi like an ordinary couple, but getting along day and night has already made them develop a tacit understanding, he has come out of the nightmare, he can't let this nightmare ruin his life again, Du Yiyi is not dead, he can't die, and he won't let Du Yiyi die the day after tomorrow.
He still has a little bit of patience with the emperor, and he will not give in to his brother, and at the moment when they look at each other, he already has other plans in his heart.
Ning Chaoge wanted to use Du Yiyi to trick Shen Ke into taking the bait, and Shen Ke would definitely appear that day, no matter whether Shen Ke really rebelled or not, he was willing to join hands with Shen Ke to do something earth-shattering.
It is late at night, the lights of Yan's mansion have been bright, it has been nearly half a month since Yan Liu disappeared, a few days ago Yan Xinglu was also dismissed from his official position by the court because of his unfavorable affairs, and Yan Xinglu, who was free, was not idle for a day, but this is not the country controlled by the emperor, in the capital controlled by Ning Chaoge, the power of the youngest scholar in his cabinet is very small, and a cadre of ministers related to Ning Zhiyuan has been removed one after another, Ning Chaoge is about to turn the court into an iron plate in his hand, these Yan Xinglu don't care, This is not in his area of interest.
Yan Liu has been missing for many days, Mrs. Yan is worried about becoming ill, she is sick like a mountain in her old age, and Mrs. Yan has been unable to get off the ground after a few days, Yan Xinglu is an only son who can't get out of her body, and the progress of the search has slowed down all of a sudden, and she is filial piety in front of the bed every day, and Yan Xinglu has not heard the ups and downs of the outside world for a long time, but tonight, he was very surprised to learn a news, the news is that a family member died on his own initiative and ran to the study to talk to him.
In this world, there are three people he cares about the most, his father Yan Liu is nowhere to be found, his mother is sick in bed, and now even Du Yiyi is in danger, fortunately, he has already learned to deal with chaos in the court in the past few months, and when he heard the news, he grabbed the robe on the chair and hurried to the Rui Wangfu.
He needs to be sure that the news is true or not, and if it is true, he needs to do something.
