Chapter Seventy-Six: Confession

"Your Majesty, the eldest princess of Changning asks to see you."

Mu Xuanche paused and said, "Let her in." He had known that she was coming, and to be honest, he was really feeling a little sorry for his royal sister now.

"The royal sister is here, but it's for Ye Zichen's business?" Mu Xuanche asked.

Mu Ranyue immediately knelt down and said, "Imperial Brother Shengming, it's just that Ye Zichen, as the left minister of the Chu State, has always been conscientious, how can it be meticulous?" ”

Mu Xuanche smiled faintly, "I know you won't believe it, and I didn't believe it at first, but in the end, I couldn't believe it." The concubine was also meticulous, so I executed her, and she identified Ye Zichen to me when she was dying. And these things, you can take them and see them. ”

Mu Ranyue's heart was shocked, and she hurriedly stepped forward to take the things in Mu Xuanche's hand. There is a letter from Lin Jie, and there is also the result that Mu Xuanche has found.

Mu Ranyue looked at them one by one, her face became more and more pale, she stepped back step by step, and shook her head in disbelief: "No, this is impossible, it is absolutely impossible!" ”

"Imperial sister, the facts are in front of you, so you can't believe it." Mu Xuanche said coldly.

"No, these can be faked. Brother Huang, Ye Zichen was also identified as a fraudulent identity at the beginning, and it was originally conclusive evidence, but didn't it later prove that he was framed? Mu Ranyue argued.

"Imperial sister, these two things can't be compared at all. Now it doesn't matter what Ye Zichen's true identity is, I just need to know that he is a meticulous worker, a sinner who caused my Chu Kingdom to lose five cities in a row, and I can't let him go! ”

"Brother ...... Emperor" Mu Ranyue choked, but she couldn't say a word, and the tears in her eyes couldn't help but fall.

"Well, you don't have to say it anymore, this matter has been decided, and my holy decree has been issued, and there is no possibility of changing it."

Mu Ranyue saw that Mu Xuanche looked like he would never give in, and the case files he had just seen, he was in a trance for a while, "Ye Zichen, he is my husband, how can it be a work done by another country." ”

Seeing this, Mu Xuan was a little unbearable: "I know that this matter has hit you hard, but this is also a foregone conclusion." And you are my sister, so this matter will not be implicated in you. I have already ordered someone to take care of the princess's mansion for you, you should forget about him quickly, for such a man, it is not worth it. When the war is over in the future, I will choose a good husband for you. ”

Mu Ranyue's eyes were dilated, she was silent for a long time, and then raised her head and said, "Brother Huang, my sister wants to go and see him." ”

Mu Xuanche paused and nodded in agreement.

This is the second time Mu Ranyue has stepped into the prison.

Both times, it was because I came to see him.

However, the state of mind is completely different.

Although there was evidence that he was not innocent on both occasions, the first time, she did not hesitate to believe that he had been wronged; And this time, for some reason, she became uncertain. And there has always been a faint voice in her heart telling her that he really did those things.

Mu Ranyue followed the jailer all the way, it was dark all day long, and the people who were locked up here were all people waiting for death, revealing a strange and gloomy appearance.

In the drowsy cell, Ye Zichen stood there, no longer as calm as he had been in prison last time.

Seeing Mu Ranyue's arrival, his expression was even more sad, he knew that she would come, so he had been waiting for her, and now seeing her so haggard, the red lotus in the center of his eyebrows also seemed to have withered, eclipsed, and he only felt that his heart was like a knife.

"Dye, you're finally here."

Mu Ranyue walked up to him, looked straight into his eyes, and asked, "Brother Chen, are you really meticulous?" ”

She looked at him without blinking, expecting him to give her a negative answer, no matter what others said, as long as Ye Zichen didn't admit it, she wouldn't believe it.

Ye Zichen had already expected her to ask such a question, seeing her serious but expectant look, he really wanted to deny it, but after all, he slowly lowered his eyes and spit out a word: "Yes." ”

A "yes" made Mu Ranyue's face turn pale instantly, and she burst into tears, what the imperial brother showed her was ironclad evidence, but she still didn't believe it, she thought, as long as Ye Zichen said no, then she would still believe him as always, because his image in her heart had long been ingrained.

She muttered, "Why? Why is this happening? ”

The tears fell, and Ye Zichen felt that her heart was also dripping blood, and she involuntarily reached out and touched her face, wanting to wipe away her tears.

Mu Ranyue took a few steps back to avoid him, and her eyes seemed to be looking at a demon, "Don't touch me!" ”

Then she suddenly turned and ran out, she didn't want to stay here anymore, she didn't want to see him.

"Dye, I'm sorry......" Ye Zichen's hand froze in mid-air, looking at her departing back, her heart felt as if it had been cut by a thousand knives.

He had already expected everything today, and thought that he was ready to deal with it, but he still couldn't reach his heart after all.

At this time, Han Sheng suddenly appeared and said, "Lord, you have already seen Madame, can you go?" ”

Ye Zichen frowned and looked at him: "Why are you here, there are ...... around"

Han Sheng said: "Rest assured, the Lord has put them down, enough for them to sleep there for two days, and they won't remember anything when they wake up." ”

Ye Zichen said, "Don't worry, wait, isn't there still two days?" ”

Han Sheng couldn't figure it out, and he didn't know what the lord was waiting for, he had already found a death row prisoner to disguise himself as the lord, and the lord could escape at any time if he wanted to, but why was the lord not in a hurry at all? Doesn't he want to see his mother soon?

However, although he was puzzled, he would never question Ye Zichen's order.

And when Mu Ranyue ran out in despair, Yun Sheng was waiting for her at the gate of the prison, and Mu Ranyue stopped when she saw Yun Shang.

Seeing Mu Ranyue's face like dead ashes, and running in such a hurry, Yun Sheng asked worriedly, "Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" Did Master Hou say something to you? ”

Mu Ranyue looked at her, but her eyes were empty, and she said softly: "It's okay, let's go back." It's over. ”

Seeing that she refused to say anything, Yunshang was worried, but she still stepped forward to help Mu Ranyue, and suddenly, her arm fell into the air, and Mu Ranyue fell down without warning.

Yunshang was shocked and hurriedly helped her up: "Your Highness, Your Highness......"

Mu Ranyue fell into Yunsheng's arms, her face so pale that she didn't have any life.

Yun Sheng hurriedly asked people to help Mu Ranyue into the carriage with her, and then instructed the coachman: "You send His Highness back quickly, and I will go to ask for a doctor." With that, he sprinted in the direction of the palace.

Seeing this scene, Liluo, the left protector of the Infinite Palace, who was hiding in the shadows, sighed in his heart, if he let the lord know that his wife fainted because of his affairs, he didn't know how to be sad.

Since Ye Zichen entered the prison, he sent Liluo to Mu Ranyue's side, and the Boundless Palace let the right protector Qingye take care of it alone.

When Mu Ranyue woke up, it was already the early morning of the second day, Yunshang had been keeping watch by her bedside all night, and Mu Qingyi also came over last night, since she heard that Ye Zichen had an accident, she was worried that Mu Ranyue would not be able to bear it.

Mu Ranyue slowly opened her eyes, saw Mu Qingyi beside the bed, was slightly surprised, and then turned her eyes to look at the room, there was no familiar taste, no familiar layout, and no familiar ...... That person.

She blinked, "Where is this?" Why is the royal sister here? ”

"Yue'er, this is the princess's mansion given to you by your father when you got married, and now that the Houfu has been raided, the emperor let you move here. And I'm here to accompany you. Mu Qingyi explained.

"Houfu is being raided?" Mu Ranyue asked with a surprised expression, as if she didn't know anything.

"yes, you forgot what happened yesterday?" Mu Qingyi exclaimed.

Mu Ranyue closed her eyes and said, "Naturally, no." ”

It's just that when she woke up, she still thought that everything was just a dream yesterday, Ye Zichen was not meticulous, they were still together well, it turned out that she was just deceiving herself.

Mu Qingyi saw what she was thinking, and said with relief: "Yue'er, my sister knows that you must be heartbroken now, and I also know that whatever I say can't reduce the damage you have suffered." But as a sister, I still have to say a few words, things are already like this, it is Ye Zichen who is sorry for Chu State, and even more sorry for you, you can't be angry for such a man. You are still young and the eldest princess, and you will definitely find a good man in the future. ”

Yunshang also echoed: "Yes, the eldest princess of Yangle is right, Your Highness, you have to relax."

Mu Ranyue's face was still pale, and she said, "You guys go out first, I want to be alone and quiet." ”

Yunshang looked at her worriedly: "Your Highness......"

"Get out!" Mu Ranyue suddenly raised her voice, and her tone was unquestionable.

Seeing this, Mu Qingyi hurriedly said, "Okay, let's go out first, don't be angry." ”

After speaking, he took Yunshang out, and it should be better to let her be alone at this time.

In the house, only Mu Ranyue was left.

Mu Ranyue leaned back on the bed, her mind full of things about Ye Zichen.

When they first met, Ye Zichen staged a heroic rescue for her, and she fell.

Later, she chased and he hid, but he still fell under her pomegranate skirt.

At the time of the wedding, he spread ten miles of red makeup and married her, and for a while, the good story of the princess's talent spread all over the world, and how many people in the world were envious.

After marriage, the cinnabar between her foreheads bloomed, and she even recognized him as the love of her life, and swore that she would never be separated in this life.

Now that she thinks about it, she is infatuated, for him, maybe it's just a joke, Mu Ranyue laughed at herself.

When she saw him yesterday, she saw guilt in his eyes, and there seemed to be love, but who knows if it's true or not?

And the dream she had that day, I think it was also known by her father, and the dream reminded her, but she didn't take it to heart, so now she ended up like this.

Mu Ranyue was lying on the bed thinking about these things, her eyes were empty, and her heart was like ashes.
