Chapter 26: The Remnants of the Former Dynasty
The word shock can no longer describe Su Lengjiu's feelings.
His uncle, Su Shiquan, was standing among the courtiers, neatly dressed, and the three-grade black gauze hat was particularly conspicuous. He looked at Su Lengjiu without any emotion in his eyes.
He was not arrested, nor was he imprisoned, let alone beheaded.
Hua Chenghan continued to hug Su Lengjiu, and the force in his hand was so heavy that it seemed to crush Su Lengjiu's shoulder.
"You let go of me......" Su Leng wanted to ask for a long time. However, the arm on the shoulder still clung to her, not moving.
Su Shiquan took a step outside and saluted the man in the hall.
"Previously, Chao Yu stabbed the prince, there was no desire to return to him, and he was hopeless, and asked His Majesty to put him to death." Su Shiquan's tone was extremely calm.
"Su Shiquan, what are you talking about......" Su Lengjiu couldn't believe that he would say such a thing, and his whole body trembled.
It turned out that she did not marry the crown prince as the daughter of the Su family, but as a remnant of the previous dynasty, and returned to the current dynasty.
Su Shiquan lied to him from beginning to end. She remembered Su Shiquan's pretended kind face before, and sighed earnestly. "Xiao Jiu, you want to avenge your parents." She was obedient and obedient, almost obeying him, and became a pawn at his mercy in the palace.
And now, Su Shiquan didn't even look at her.
"Someone!" The Emperor of Qi in the palace ordered. "The remnants of the previous dynasty will be sent to the heavenly prison! Behead the public on the same day! ”
After saying that, there were swordsman guards swarming.
Su Leng stared at Su Shiquan's back for a long time, as if he wanted to see through a hole.
"Wait." Hua Chenghan said to the guard who pulled out the sword from its sheath.
"Father, the son has something to ask for." Hua Chenghan knelt down towards the emperor, "The son and this daughter still have personal grievances that have not been settled, and I implore my father to hand over this daughter to the son to deal with." ”
"What? Is this true? Cheng Han, did she hurt you? "The unscrupulous emperor cared deeply about his son.
"I beg my father to grant my son's request." Hua Chenghan repeated.
Su Leng stood in the center of the court for a long time, his face was pale, he was dressed in red, and his black hair was messy. She stared directly at the monarch of Qi in the hall, her eyes were terrifyingly bright, like a terrible ghost from hell.
"Daring fanatics, kneel!" Next to him was Zhou Zhixuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.
Su Lengjiu still stood still, his head slowly turned, and he looked at the person who spoke.
Zhou Zhixuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was frightened by her eyes, and trembled all over his body.
"That's it!" The man in the palace spoke, "Han'er, this girl will be left to you to dispose of. In three days, I want to see the head! Retreat! ”
Su Lengjiu suddenly collapsed to the ground.
"Come with me." Hua Chenghan helped her up.
Su Lengjiu's body was weak and boneless, like a lifeless puppet.
didn't go far, Su Lengjiu suddenly pushed him away, took out the dagger in his sleeve, and slashed straight at Su Shiquan.
Su Shiquan looked at her, shaking his head, actually laughing.
Hua Chenghan knocked off the dagger in her hand with the palm wind, and then ignored Su Lengjiu's desperate resistance, picked her up and walked out of the palace quickly.
"You let go of me! It's none of your business!" Su Leng beat Hua Chenghan's chest for a long time, and his eyes were red. "I'm going to kill Su Shiquan!"
"Jiu'er, don't make trouble." Hua Chenghan frowned, his face was painful, and a thin layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Su Lengjiu noticed that his face was abnormal, and he immediately left behind the matter of killing Su Shiquan.
"What's wrong with you! You put me down! ”
"You promise me not to run." Hua Chenghan's voice was so soft that he couldn't hear it.
"I promise you!"
The moment Hua Chenghan put her down, he immediately covered his chest.
Su Lengjiu almost subconsciously supported him. "You lean on me, don't move!"
"I'll be fine in a while, I'll be fine."
"Is there a wound in your chest?"
Hua Chenghan didn't answer her, but said something irrelevant, "Let's go fishing the day after tomorrow." ”
Fishing? What kind of fish do you catch in winter? What nonsense is this man talking about!
"Good. We're going to go fishing the day after tomorrow, but you'll have to heal your injuries first. ”
"Then say it, don't regret it when the time comes."
"Well, that's it."
Little by little, the two of them walked forward.
When they returned to the carriage, the attendants immediately stepped forward to check on them.
"Lord Wang!"
"No problem. Let's go back. "Flowers become Han Road.
"Good. Lord Wang, please get in the car. ”
There is a stove table in the carriage. Hua Chenghan leaned on the seat, tilted his head slightly, and wanted to take off his gloves.
Su Lengjiu stretched out his hand to help, "I'll help you." ”
Taking off his gloves, Hua Chenghan put his two slender hands on the stove and baked, and his side face was a little more gentle in the orange-yellow firelight.
"I can make brown sugar ginger tea, which can ward off the cold." Su Leng said for a long time.
"Then Jiu'er will help me cook a bowl, okay?" Hua Chenghan asked her softly.
This smile is like the first snow in the world, like the warm sun in winter, and like the flowers blooming in March in the world.
"Okay." Su Leng said for a long time.
