Chapter 102: The Storm Rises in the Dark
The flying dragon soars into the clouds, and the dragon robe with auspicious clouds seems to weigh a thousand gold, framing the body and the heart. It sounds good, everyone is afraid of it, and they don't dare to speak out, but they disobey it in private. Hongli had to admit that the taste of a red-hot soldering iron burning on his heart was really uncomfortable.
This son, a touch of tenacity flashed in his mind, and Hongli couldn't help but think of Concubine Xian. If she really planned to kill the Fucha clan, why did she provoke Shengyan to fight against herself? She can show her softness, show weakness in every way, and be coquettish and stupid, how can she not arouse her pity?
A palace concubine like her who is not afraid of angering the holy face and falling out of favor may be full of harem, and there will be no second person to be found.
Although Lan Xin didn't know what Hongli was thinking, she knew the stakes of this matter. The imperial heir is the foundation of the country, and if you don't really get rid of the people who cause trouble, I'm afraid that there will still be palace concubines who will lose their dragon wombs in the future. When I think of this, my heart hardens again, as if it was cast with molten iron, and it is indestructible.
"Your Majesty, the sinners of the Chen family have bribed the palace people one after another, and conspired to poison the dragon fetus of the Zhongcui Palace nobleman Suo Yuluo, and the evidence is conclusive. The concubine thought that such an unforgivable sin and a decree of execution was really fulfilling her wish. What is so difficult to die, but to live and endure, and to repent of one's sins every day is the best punishment. Lan Xin said with great hatred, and even the green tendons on his forehead were slightly raised, all of which were usually generous and peaceful.
This is also an indispensable move, if you don't want to save Chen Qingqing's life first, then this matter will never come to light. Lan Xin had doubted Chen Qingqing's motives from the beginning, but now that he looked at it like this, it seemed that the person who was secretly hiding couldn't help but surface.
After all the effort has been put into place, it has not been in vain. Hongli understood Lan Xin's thoughts best, and was determined: "I also make such a sound, only by beating this sinner woman into the cold palace and copying scriptures and repenting every day can I reap the effect of shocking people's hearts." There will never be such evil in the future. "The grim gaze swept back and forth over the faces of all people, and everywhere they went, they saw nothing but obedience and humility." Does the queen feel good? ”
"Don't, Your Majesty, the concubine begs you, give the concubine to death. Committing such crimes, Qingqing has no face in the world, please remember the love in the previous years, give the concubine to death, Qingqing only wants to die quickly. Chen Qingqing kowtowed again and again, wishing that he could smash the heavenly spirit and die on the spot.
Gao Lingxi saw through the emperor's thoughts, and said in a daze: "Your Majesty, the concubines think that the Chen family is guilty and there is no need to punish the relatives. Chen Yanzhang, the father of the Chen family, is also a conscientious official who serves the imperial court. Not only that, but the concubine suggested that there was no need to demote the Chen family to a concubine, and to give her a permanent position.
Let her always remember that life is a royal person, and death is also the soul of the royal family. If you do something contrary to the will of heaven, you will be atoned for in the rest of your life. Of course, there is also a deep meaning here, the Chen family is hanging on the lives of her mother's family and relatives, if she dares to kill herself, the nine clans will be inevitable. Whether to live and repent or die quickly, it is up to her to choose. ”
Xiu Guiren only knew hatred, and after listening to Hui Guifei's words, her eyes were full of tears, and she was very resistant: "Hui Guifei's words, the concubine really doesn't dare to agree, killing people pays for her life, doesn't the concubine's daughter have to pay for her life?" "Lan pointed a little, I can't wait for a sword qi to shoot out from my finger, penetrating Chen Qingqing's body." She killed the daughter of her concubine, why did she let her live, why? ”
The body is already weak, coupled with the viciousness in his heart, the poignant voice of the noble man and the miserable white face, it is really unbearable to look at.
Lan Xin was afraid that she would mess around and hinder the deeper scheming in her heart, so she hurriedly called Jinlan: "Xiu Gui is weak, and she can't be stimulated anymore, you help her to rest in Suishou Hall first." ”
On the surface, the queen cares about the nobles, but in fact, she must have other plans. Su Wanrong immediately understood, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab Xiu Guiren's hand that was still pointing at Chen's family, and persuaded her widely: "Sister, don't be too sad, the emperor and queen will definitely seek justice for you." Let's go to Suishou Hall with the main palace to rest. You know, it's come to this, and taking care of yourself is the most important thing. ”
Su Wanrong held Xiu Guiren's hand and used full strength, although her face was still docile and soft, she had no intention of letting Xiu Guiren break free at all. "The concubines and others retired first." The respectful emperor was blessed, and Su Wanrong summoned the maid to help, and helped the noble man to slowly retreat in front of everyone.
Xiu Guiren still couldn't let go of the hatred in his heart, and turned around several times to stare at Chen, who was kneeling and crying, and really wanted to pounce on her and tear her apart.
Chen Qingqing ruined not only an innocent life, but also a good future for her Suoluo Yitong. Who knows, this time the damage to the fetus will not hurt the body, if in case......
Then what else does she have to rely on, and then fight with the beautiful women in this hall.
When the people retreated, the temple fell into a deathly silence. Except for Chen's faint sobbing, there seemed to be no sound. The palace gate of Xu is Changchun Palace was locked, and even the wind couldn't get in.
At such a time, everyone's mood is extremely heavy, unless it is the real murderer who is hidden behind the scenes.
Hongli pondered for a moment, and spoke first: "I feel that Concubine Hui's proposal is very good. demoted the Chen family to a permanent presence, entered the cold palace, copied scriptures and repented every day, and sent them to the fire for incineration, which should be the right to ...... The child who has not yet opened his eyes prays. ”
Huang Rui'e obviously panicked, the emperor didn't execute Chen. Why is this happening? Could it be that he can also be lenient to the palace concubines who brutalized the emperor's heir? No, this is not like the emperor's ruthless style. Unless, it was he who suspected that Chen was not the culprit.
Secretly hating wanton, Huang Rui'e's eyes flashed with a strange light, but she cleverly hid them with burning tears. took the silk silk and wiped it on her face twice, she said slowly: "When the concubine thinks of the child of the noble person, she doesn't feel good in her heart. This Chen is too ruthless, and it is impossible to exaggerate how many times he has died. It's just that since the emperor has a will, the concubines can only obey it. ”
Qi Qige glanced at her coldly, it seemed that there were many unbelief, and it was really difficult for her to pretend to be so similar. It's just that because of his identity, he still didn't say anything. What makes her unable to let go of her is whether this matter will be related to the Queen Mother. After all, this is not the first time that the Queen Mother has attacked the emperor's heirs.
"Since the emperor has a will, Xue Guining, without further ado, you can immediately put Chen Changzai in the cold palace." Lan Xin frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart: "This palace really doesn't want to face such a femme fatale anymore, find someone to serve her well, and the sun rises and the sun sets, and there is no slack for a moment." ”
Xue Guining responded, immediately summoned the guards, mercilessly set up the Chen family, who had collapsed to the ground, and dragged the person out without the slightest delay.
At this time, Chen Qingqing's heart is already like stagnant water. She can't just cry out for injustice, she can't even die. Why did fate torture her so much? Yes, she didn't have a good heart, she was not convinced that Gao Lingxi was promoted from a humble handmaiden to "Wang Fang Fujin", she was not used to seeing her high, but pretending to be smiling and gentle.
Only then did he become a prisoner, and Chen Qingqing suddenly realized that everything was carefully arranged by the concubine. She just wants to borrow her own hand to eradicate the thorn in her eye. At the beginning, she thought that she was more capable of being a concubine, but it turned out that she was actually in the way of a concubine.
Please ask him to get a dragon robe and enter the Treasure Prince's Mansion, the purpose is to blame Gao Lingxi, which is a heinous capital crime. The dragon robe was sent in through his hand, once it was investigated...... How innocent is he?
It's really embarrassing for this Huang Rui'e, who calculated so carefully step by step. I expected that I would rather die than confess my sweetheart.
has really come to this last step, Chen Qingqing is not afraid of hatred. It seems that fate has arranged all this early on, and there is really no need to affect others. Okay, if she enters the cold palace to make the concubine feel at ease, she is willing to copy the Buddhist scriptures in the cold palace for a lifetime to repent. If Concubine Yi can't allow her to linger, even if she doesn't kill herself, she can always find a suitable way to die quietly, right?
The life of the ant, what a worry. Even if the emperor doesn't fulfill his wish to die now, he won't keep her in his heart every day. Chen Qingqing closed her eyes and was dragged away by the guards, her knees and insteps rubbing against the hard ground, cutting through the clothes, but there was no pain.
"What should I do with Shui Lan?" Gao Lingxi inadvertently saw Shui Lan's wound again, and a stream of sour water almost spurted out of his mouth: "And that Zhilan?" ”
Hongli glanced at Lan Xin and motioned for her to arrange it. After all, the affairs of the harem are more appropriately arranged by the queen.
"Send it to the Punishment Division, do what you have to do." Lan Xin was afraid that he hadn't made it clear, so he had to add: "The mourning period for the first emperor has not yet passed, and there shouldn't be too much killing in the harem, pick some hard work, and do it well." ”
This is more like an explanation of why Chen was not executed.
Huang Rui'e was finally relieved when she heard this, and her face did not show too much joy, but kept her head calm and did not say a word. For her, if she thinks about it a little more, killing Chen Qingqing will really be a lifelong disaster. As soon as Chen Qingqing died, there was no need for these people who were bribed by her with money and silver.
"Erxiang, get up." Hongli saw that after the queen finished speaking, he softened his tone but still frowned: "I blame you for my mistake." ”
Zhang Chang burst into tears when he heard the words, shook his head again and again, and said: "The concubines are fine, the emperor doesn't have to worry about the concubines." It's good that things can fall into place. ”
"Zhang Changzai has been wronged, go back to the palace and rest, and then talk to you in the palace in a few days." Lan Xin understands the key to shocking people's hearts, that is, to pay equal attention to grace and power.
"Thank you, Queen." Zhang Erxiang exhaled a long breath, but it was silent, it was so dangerous, she almost couldn't see the sunrise tomorrow again. Danger lurks and walks on thin ice, probably such a situation.
