Chapter 27: The Purpose of the Black Lotus
Takefu.
Xiang Yue washed the bath, took medicine, and sat down with a cup of hot tea in his hand.
It's almost dawn.
She still didn't feel the slightest bit sleepy.
Qingqiong put on a new incense and glanced at Xiang Yueqing who was stunned, "Madame, just now, you shouldn't have interceded for the slave maid." ”
Xiang Yueqing came back to his senses, "Why shouldn't it?" You saved me. ”
Qingqiong looked ashamed, "It was the slave's carelessness that caused the lady to be in danger." ”
Xiang Yueqing shook his head, "I was careless."
Obviously, Princess Heng reminded me.
There are signs of what happened tonight, but I wasn't careful. ”
Qingqiong was silent and said bluntly, "Lord Lang doesn't like people to intercede. ”
Xiang Yueqing thought for a while, "He doesn't like it...... But I like it. ”
Qingqiong: "......"
"Madam, Jiuxia is back." Nanxue's voice sounded outside.
"Let him in." Xiang Yueqing put down the teacup.
Jiuxia entered the door and saluted, "Lord Lang was ordered to investigate the case of the fire in King Yin's Mansion, and I am afraid that I will have to come back later in the past two days."
Master Lang asked the servant to explain to his wife, and he must rest well and recuperate from his injuries. ”
Xiang Yueqing nodded, and then asked with some confusion, "It's just...... Is there a fire in the palace? ”
Obviously, the fire is just the introduction, and Ke Yi's assassination of Yin Wang Bojun is the main topic.
Jiuxia glanced at Yueqing inexplicably, nodded, and then said, "Oh, and Princess Ling was slighted by the Yang family Goro last night.
This matter has been spread all over the world, and I heard that Princess Ling is very sad, and Yang Hongmin has also been imprisoned, and I am afraid that she will be punished severely. ”
Hearing this, Xiang Yueqing was stunned.
How could something like this happen?
Yang Hongmin is a lustful gallant, yes.
But on an occasion like last night, how dare you openly do it to Princess Ling?
It's incredible.
And...... She always felt that something was not quite right.
"Madame, don't think too much." Qingqiong spoke up, "Madame hasn't slept all night, let's rest early." ”
Xiang Yueqing looked at Jiuxia, "How is Madam Yan?" ”
Jiuxia replied, "I have been rescued, but the injury is a bit serious, and I am afraid that it will not get better for a while."
Regarding the secret passage of King Yin's mansion, Lord Lang said that Mrs. Don't worry, he has his own arrangements. ”
"Hmm." Xiang Yueqing lost interest and lay down on the couch, "I slept." ”
It seems that what she was calculated last night can only be put to rest.
Wu Chen didn't seem to have any intention of publicizing this matter.
I guess I'm planning for the future.
After suffering such a big loss for no reason, and she hasn't had time to vent, it's strange that she can be happy.
Alas.
Whoever makes the other party the villain.
Everything is about the villain's plans.
He didn't let Qingqiong leave him, and if he didn't save him, it would be considered merciful.
Seeing that Xiang Yueqing was in a bad mood, Jiuxia and Qingqiong glanced at each other and quietly retreated.
……
Yaoling Palace.
Wu Chen said to the monarch Bo Geng: "The cause of the fire in King Yin's Mansion has been ascertained.
A house slave named Ding Ji in the palace had a grudge against King Yin, so he arranged a fire in the small treasury in advance.
As soon as the time came, he took the excuse to go inside and light a fire, which caused last night's fire. ”
Bo Geng frowned, "A small slave of King Yin's Mansion can cause such a big fire?" ”
Wu Chen glanced at Jian Hong, who was kneeling next to him, "Wei Chen asked about the Chiwuwei and the guards of the Yin Wang's Mansion, and found that the defense of the small warehouse was lax. ”
"Humph!" Bo Geng looked at Jian Hong, "Jian Hong, how do you explain it?" ”
Jian Hong kowtowed, "The minister is guilty." ”
Bo Geng nodded, "Very good, I have repeatedly given you opportunities, but you have repeatedly disappointed me!"
I see that General Jian is old, and it is time to rest. ”
Jian Hong was shocked.
Bo Geng waved his hand, "Go down." ”
Jian Hong retreated with a dejected face.
Waiting for Jian Hong to walk away, Bo Geng looked at Wu Chen, "How could Ding Ji have a grudge against King Yin and not hesitate to commit such a crime?" ”
Wu Chen replied, "Ding Ji committed suicide on the spot and never told it himself.
However, last night, the wife of General Yan Lang of the Red Guard disappeared inexplicably, and was later found in the secret passage under the small storehouse.
When he was found, he was scarred and unconscious.
What the truth is, I'm afraid we won't know until Madam Yan wakes up. ”
Bo Geng was stunned for a moment, "Yin Wangfu, secret road?" ”
Wu Chen said: "Yes, there are three places in the Yin Wang's Mansion where the defense is lax, which is where the secret passage passes.
General Jane failed to be thorough, probably because he had other difficulties. ”
"Bastard thing!" Bo Geng patted the book case, "Summoning King Yin to see me!" ”
As he was talking, the inner attendant hurriedly entered, "Your Majesty, the Changle Hall has spread the word, Princess Ling doesn't eat or drink, and she still wants to ...... Commit suicide. ”
Wu Chen's eyes flashed.
"What?" Bo Geng stood up anxiously, "This girl ......"
After speaking, Bo Geng hurriedly rushed to the Changle Palace.
……
Changquan Palace.
Bai Guifei paced a few steps in the main hall, and said in a faint voice: "This Changquan Palace is too concise, and Sister Shufei has really worked hard all these years." ”
Concubine Ye Shufei bowed her body and lowered her head, "Princess Ling's matter, Ah Zhi is not sensible, please forgive me." ”
"Forgive me?" Bai Guifei chuckled, "How could I blame it?"
If there is no Princess Quan, my daughter will be wronged in vain, and she will be taken advantage of by Yang Hongmin's family.
I want to thank Princess Tsuen for not being able to do it yet. ”
Concubine Ye Shufei closed her eyes and knelt down, "Please also ask the concubine to look at Ah Zhi's young age, and if she wants to punish anything, she will come to the concubine." ”
After speaking, Concubine Ye Shufei bowed her head towards Bai Guifei.
Bo Zhi, who was kneeling outside the hall, looked at this scene, her eyes were red, and she wanted to step forward to say something, but she was held down by Liu Zhangshi.
"Princess, if you really want to be for the good of the concubine, don't make trouble for her at this time."
Bo Zhi's tears overflowed her eyes, and her voice choked, "Aunt Liu, I obviously didn't do anything wrong."
Obviously, it was the second sister who asked me to make a big fuss.
She was fine last night......"
Liu Zhangshi sighed lightly, "The princess is too young, and she doesn't know that she has been used."
Let's see.
The old slave didn't believe that Princess Ling would behave his reputation in order to punish a Yang Hongmin. ”
Saying that, Liu Zhangshi sighed, "Now, the concubine and the princess have offended the queen and the concubine at the same time.
In the future, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult. ”
Hearing this, Bo Zhi couldn't help but burst into tears, and felt remorseful.
……
"Jiao'er, what's wrong with you?"
The monarch Bo Geng stepped into the Changle Hall of the Spirit Princess Bo Jiao.
I saw that the hall was empty, and my daughter's favorite ornaments and ornaments were all gone.
Bojiao was wearing a plain dress, her hair was scattered, her eyes were red and swollen, and there were still tears on her face.
Seeing his daughter's appearance, Bo Geng was distressed, "My Jiao'er, what's the trouble?"
Didn't my father promise to re-govern Yang Hongmin and give you anger?
How can you not eat food or drink water, and still seek death?
If something happens to you, what will your father do? ”
"Father......" Bo Jiao threw himself into Bo Geng's arms, crying so desolately.
"What if the father kills Yang Hongmin? The daughter's reputation is gone.
What's the point of having a daughter alive? Why don't you let your daughter go like this......"
Bo Geng's heart was broken when he heard this, and he hurriedly comforted, "Silly Jiao'er, what's the matter with a mere reputation."
The most important thing is that you're okay.
Listen to your father's words and don't think too much.
The father has already issued an order that the palace people are strictly forbidden to mention this matter again.
After a while, it will be fine. ”
Bo Jiao shook his head, "Father, my daughter has no love, and she has no shame to face her beloved again......
In the past, daughters could indulge in indulgence, even if they knew that Wu Lang would marry a wife, they could still smile at him and dance for him.
But now? Daughter even qualified for this fantasy...... It's gone......"
When Bo Geng heard this, he hugged Bo Jiao tightly, and sighed after being silent for a long time: "It's okay."
As long as my daughter rejoices, my father will fulfill you. ”
Bo Jiao whimpered, but there was a look of triumph in his eyes.
