Chapter 541: The Promise I Made at the Beginning
"I'll take a look." He Lanyue and Hua Xiyan whispered, obviously saying hello to Holland Ze.
"I'll go with you." Huaxi smoke pondered after the interface.
He Lanyue didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement.
"Just now, I was wondering, is there anything wrong with this Helan Hong's proposal to welcome her sister-in-law back today, it turns out that she is building momentum for the departure of Concubine He and He Lanli!" Out of the palace, He Lanyue had no fears, and her voice became louder.
"Helan Hong and He Lanli are not siblings of the same mother, but the relationship is so good, which is really surprising." Hua Xiyan blinked.
"Obviously there is a stake." He Lanyue really didn't believe that in this deep palace, there would be an intimate relationship for no reason.
That's true. The Pei family needs to find a support for themselves in the palace, and Concubine He is indeed the best choice.
The two of them left the Xiling Palace like this, and one of them came to tell Helan Yue something about it, and pointed in one of the directions.
He Lanyue nodded, and got on the two horses that had been prepared long ago with Hua Xiyan.
"Concubine He and He Lanli went in the direction of the outside of the city."
Hua Xiyan nodded, and suddenly reined in the horse's reins.
"What's wrong?"
Hua Xiyan didn't answer and asked: "Now the people of Xiling don't know that Helan Li is daughter, right?" "
He Lanyue nodded.
"Why didn't you tell the world?"
He Lanyue pursed her lips slightly, but the natural upturned curvature of her lips made her still look so kind and peaceful, she sighed and said softly: "Sister-in-law, I can promise you other things, but I can't do this matter." "
Hua Xiyan suddenly straightened his face: "What? "
"Helan Li's position as the crown prince was established by his father. When Concubine He gave birth to twin sons, her father immediately made him the crown prince. Among them, of course, there is the tradition of Xiling Lichang, but it is undeniable that there is also the father's affection for Concubine He. He Lanyue sighed softly, "It doesn't matter what means Concubine He has used, or the Pei family helps her." But since she is in the palace and is the favorite concubine of her father, she has feelings for her father. "
"After He Lanli was made the crown prince, Concubine He also had a condition with her father, that is, as long as He Lanli did not commit the heinous crime, it could not be abolished! So, sister-in-law, you can see that. Although I am the third emperor brother on the throne now, He Lanli is still the crown prince. No matter what mistakes she made before, even if her father had the idea of abolishing the throne, but after all, it was thunder and rain, and she still wanted to be her king. "
"Sister-in-law, once we make He Lanli's identity public, she will no longer have a reason to sit in that position. Although she can no longer have any storms in that position now, it doesn't matter, what matters is what her father promised Concubine He, and what matters is that her father and emperor make every promise! "
Hua Xiyan understood, because it was Emperor Zeyou who made a promise, as the prince and daughter, Helan Ze and He Lanyue had to help his father of the Son of Heaven fulfill the obligation of this promise.
Because once He Lanli's identity is made public, after causing an uproar, not only He Lanli and Concubine He are not tolerated, but even Emperor Zeyou, the emperor, will leave people with the impression of being too hasty.
It is no exaggeration to say that once the conspiracy of more than 20 years is made public, how much turmoil will it cause? Even the good reputation left by Emperor Zeyou who has worked hard all his life is afraid that it will be ruined because of "carelessness in establishing the reserve".
Seeing Hua Xiyan falling into deep thought, He Lanyue sighed again: "Sister-in-law, do you think I don't want to disclose it?" Once it is announced to the world, not only will Concubine He and He Lanli finish playing, but the Pei family's two rooms and three rooms will not escape responsibility, and a group of princelings in the past will not be able to eat and walk around! How can we not know what a benefit this should be for my newly enthroned Third Emperor Brother? The reputation of my father, over time, I and the three emperor brothers and the eight emperor brothers always have time to slowly recover, as children, we naturally can't let our father's eternal wisdom have a little bit of stain! "
"So what are you waiting for? Just make it clear to the emperor? Hua Xiyan was a little confused, since his son and daughter could slowly restore their image, was there anything he couldn't accept?
He Lanyue chuckled and shook her head, with a little bitterness: "Sister-in-law, we are the children of our father, but that He Lanli is also the flesh and blood of my father!" "
That's it, as an emperor, the most unsightly thing is cannibalism. Emperor Zeyou's people value love and righteousness, which is in stark contrast to Emperor Tianlong back then. Naturally, he didn't want to see his eldest son killed like this.
So Hua Xiyan also understood that the current Helan Ze and He Lanyue just needed a reason, a reason that could make all this public, but made Emperor Zeyou helpless and could not blame.
Promised? Hua Xiyan smiled suddenly, a pair of bright eyes were shining, and the brilliance of the bright moon in the sky shone into her eyes, reflecting countless brilliant and charming bits of broken light, even the stars in the sky.
He Lanyue can also be regarded as knowing Hua Xiyan, every time she shows such a smile, it is when she has an idea.
The curvature of Hua Xiyan's eyes was almost flying, and she looked sideways at He Lanyue, smiling even more.
"You just go and spread the news, and the outside world will say that I spread it."
He Lanyue frowned, thinking about what's wrong with this? The father will definitely ask the third emperor brother and why she didn't stop it...... There will definitely be a group of people in the court who will force her and the Third Emperor Brother to put pressure on Senior Brother Yun to punish her sister-in-law, in that case...... But it's really a dilemma.
Hua Xiyan looked at her embarrassment, her voice suddenly became distant, and she looked at her with her eyes raised: "Mingyue, do you remember that you owe me a condition." "
He Lanyue was stunned.
"As long as it does not violate the ethics of the program and does not violate the morality of the state, you must promise me any conditions. At the beginning, we were allied with high-fives. "
He Lanyue's breathing became lighter, and the hand holding the reins of the horse involuntarily tightened again and again.
She......
Yes, she owes Hua Xiyan a condition, and this condition, when the two of them swore three high-fives, many people have witnessed it with their own eyes, although many witnesses are no longer in the world.
"Your father is not to move He Lanli for a promise, and you can also not interfere in this matter for a promise. I'll do it this time, you have to go back and tell your royal brother that you can prepare for the aftermath. "
After all, the chain reaction brought about by this incident is not so easy to solve.
Helan Yue was overjoyed, nodded again and again, kept applauding, and hurriedly asked, "Sister-in-law, is there anything you need my help with?" "
"Close the gates!" Hua Xiyan hooked his lips and smiled: "Let's go to the city first, close the door and beat the dog!" "
——
When Concubine He and He Lanli went out of the palace gate, they unexpectedly found that the palace gate was closed.
"Mother, what's going on? Didn't you say you were going to take us out? He Lanli was a little panicked, and even her voice was trembling faintly.
Helan swallowed her saliva and looked up at the closed palace door, her heart almost jumping out of her throat.
"Li'er, don't panic yet, don't panic yet!" Concubine He hurriedly comforted He Lanli, and she looked at the surrounding scene very vigilantly.
Before, Pei Yonglai told himself that all the preparations had been made, and they would naturally have someone to answer them when they left the lake in the capital, but now that they are like this, they are naturally exposed.
It's just how to fail?
Now that there is no effort to pay attention to so much in this situation, Concubine He thought about it and immediately decided: "Go to Xiangguo Temple!" "
Xiangguo Temple is located in the northwest of Yancheng, and it is the national temple of Xiling. At night, it is still full of people.
Concubine He and He Lanli cautiously walked all the way, beware of some strange-looking people, towards the inside of the temple.
Since Qixi Festival is coming, there are many people who come here at night to seek blessings and marriages, and there are even more children of some high-ranking families, and most of them have entered the palace and know the appearance of Concubine He and He Lanli.
The two of them picked a place with few people and entered a Guanyin hall, and a little novice came out, and when he saw the two, he hurriedly said, "Please two of you!" My third master is waiting for the two of you inside! "
As soon as Concubine He heard that it was Pei Bo, she immediately pulled He Lanli in.
"What's going on? Didn't you say foolproof? As soon as Concubine He saw Pei Bo, she couldn't help but complain.
Pei Bo closed the door tightly, looked at the situation outside, and then said: "Who knew that Princess Mingyue had been sending someone to keep an eye on it, staring so closely!" You go on the front foot, and she gets the news on the back foot and leaves the palace! I didn't enter the palace today, thinking that you might come here in case it was revealed, so I came to wait for you! "
Concubine He knew that it was useless to talk about this now, so she had to ask, "What now?" "
Pei Bo sighed: "It is estimated that martial law will be imposed in Beijing in the next few days, you are staying in this Xiangguo Temple now, and I will send you out if I find an opportunity." "
This is indeed the only way, and Concubine He has nothing to say.
"The way now is to protect the identity of the crown prince, and don't let others know!" Pei Bo advised, "Otherwise, the people will definitely say that the prince is a demon who disturbs the Xiling Dynasty, and everyone will be punished when the time comes, but it will be really troublesome!" "
Listening to Pei Bo's words, He Lanli's whole person began to tremble, and his face became extremely white, without half a trace of blood.
Concubine He comforted He Lanli, nodded and said, "I know, no one else knows about this matter except us, and it will be fine." "
"No...... Don't ......" He Lanli shook Concubine He's arm and shook her head with a sad face.
"What's wrong with you?" Concubine He was inexplicably written by He Lanli.
"Someone knows, mother, someone knows!" He Lanli said, her voice already carrying a crying tone, "Huaxi smoke...... She, she knows! "
Concubine He felt as if a thunderbolt had exploded overhead, and everything began to become so unreal. At this moment, she would rather be deaf!
"You mean, Hua Xiyan knows that you are a daughter?"
"Hmmm! She...... Ah~" Before He Lanli could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a violent sound.
Someone rushed directly into the house and said in a panic to a few people: "Third master, the people are rioting, and they are all rushing towards Xiangguo Temple, saying that they want to arrest the demon of cholera Xiling!"
