Concubine Xiang's adultery can be said to be the biggest event in the beginning of the year, it happened for only half a day, not only the people in the palace have heard of it, but the streets and alleys are also lively.

After all, the adultery of concubines and the secret of the court is always the favorite anecdote of some good deeds, and some people even want to compile it into a book.

Qiu Lianke already knew less than half an hour after the incident, it was Ling'er who came out of the palace to tell him, and at this time he was sitting in front of the desk in the imperial study, lowering his eyebrows and lowering his eyes without saying a word.

"What do you think about Concubine Xiang?" Cang Linchen looked down at him and asked, no joy or anger could be heard in his words.

"But at your Majesty's disposal." Qiu Lianke arched his hand, still looking up shamelessly, what else could he say now, it had already caused a storm in the city, and it was useless to say more, so he could only let Cang Linchen dispose of Concubine Xiang.

Even if he is the second rank of the official residence of the doctor, he can't help Concubine Xiang speak, the adultery is too serious, and he also harbors a bad seed, and it is a blessing not to die.

"Since you also said so, I will save her from death for your sake, but the death penalty can be avoided and the living crime cannot be escaped, and she will be sent to the cold palace as soon as the injury is healed." Cang Rinchen originally planned to execute Concubine Xiang, and it was Xia Yinhuan's intention to send Concubine Xiang into the cold palace.

Saying that death is too cheap for her, leaving a glimmer of life, and torturing in the cold palace is the best punishment for her, of course he has to listen to Xia Yinhuan's words, after all, Xia Yinhuan is still angry with her now.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen!" Qiu Lianke hurriedly knelt down and bowed, Qiu Yue's immortality was already the best result, and he was still worried that Cang Linchen would execute her on the way to the palace.

"That's it, Concubine Xiang can't hold her face when she does this kind of thing, so I can only let this matter pass as soon as possible, and settle the matter." Cang Rinchen sighed a little helplessly, it was also a dangerous move to get to this point, although he sanctioned Concubine Xiang without moving Qiu Lianke, but he smeared a pot black on the face of the royal family.

Qiu Lianke had nothing to say, he sat honestly in front of the desk, and he felt sorry for Qiu Yueyu at the moment, and he also understood that now was not the time to save her, and he could only find another way to save her when he had an unshakable position in the court in the future.

"Your Majesty, there was news from Fengle Palace, saying that Concubine Xiang had a miscarriage and that she was fine." Ander cautiously walked into the temple door to report.

"Let Doctor He prescribe more tonic medicine so that she can raise and have children." Cang Linchen's face was expressionless, and a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes, and it was time for her to enter the cold palace when Qiu Yue was still well-nourished.

The matter of Concubine Xiang has become a foregone conclusion, Qin Hao was escorted to Zongzhengsi, and this adultery case was established, and even Qiu Lianke did not complain at all.

Concubine Xiang had already confirmed the name of the water-based Yanghua, and at this time, Ye Xinghuan had just entered the palace, and she was going to find Xia Yinhuan, but she heard about such a thing.

It was not far from Fengqi Palace, but he was standing outside the hall of Fengqi Palace, not knowing whether to step forward or stay in place. The moonlight was shining that night, and her appearance was still lingering in front of her at this moment, and she said she wanted to leave!

For her words, she can abandon everything, and her reputation and status can be abandoned, just to be able to accompany her.

But, now, things have come to light, is she still willing to go with her?

Squatting outside the palace, the drizzle was still lingering, wetting her eyes, blurring her vision, not retreating or advancing, just in place, hoping to stand outside the hall and see her shadow flashing inadvertently.

"His Royal Highness King Lian?" Liuli went to Fengle Palace to inquire about the news, and happened to return to see Ye Xinghuan standing in the rain curtain, looking at Fengqi Palace with inexplicable sadness, and called out suspiciously.

Ye Xinghuan was slightly startled, and when he came back to his senses, he saw the glass behind him, so he smiled lightly and nodded in agreement.

"Is the prince here to find Niangniang, why don't you enter the palace?" Liuli looked at him suspiciously and asked, it was really strange that it was raining and waiting outside the palace gate without entering the palace.

Ye Xinghuan lowered his eyes, raised his steps and walked towards Fengqi Palace, he didn't know why he had to enter the palace to see her even though he knew the result, and he didn't understand why he had to get a result.

Xia Yinhuan has not had a good night's sleep in recent days, and then the weather was wet and rainy, and the osmanthus fragrance in the hall leaned on the beauty leaning and squinting and napping.

The palace doesn't have to leave, her purpose is Concubine Xiang, and now Concubine Xiang has determined that she will enter the cold palace in a few days, she has nothing to worry about, she can sleep comfortably in Fengqi Palace.

As soon as she closed her eyes, she heard the sound of footsteps entering the hall, she didn't care at all, now that she was without Concubine Xiang, she was much more relieved, presumably at most it was glass or fallen leaves.

However, I heard a familiar voice ringing out: "Are you okay?" ”

Xia Yinhuan opened her eyes when she heard the sound, and saw that the person standing at the door of the hall was actually Ye Xinghuan, and couldn't help but stand up in surprise, completely sleepy: "Why are you here?" ”

"Come and see you, and by the way, what are you going to do." Ye Xinghuan smiled far-fetched, and immediately lowered his head, he already knew the answer in his heart, but he still stubbornly wanted her to say it in person.

"Didn't I give you a letter?" Xia Yinhuan never expected that Ye Xinghuan would actually enter the palace for this matter, turned his head and glared at Liuli and asked, "Did you not deliver the letter?" ”

"She delivered." Ye Xinghuan's voice was flat and couldn't hide the deep loss, and the distance from her was ten steps away: "It seems that you don't plan to leave." ”

For her sake, he could divorce his newlywed wife with a letter of resignation, and for her, he could give up the throne and flee with her, but she could write a letter to him not to interfere again.

"No, it's not ......" Xia Yinhuan didn't know how to explain it, she was at a loss for a long time, and remembered what Liu Yan said to her that day, and now she already felt his deep affection for Ye Xinghuan, but in the end, she could only say: "I'm sorry." ”

She can't respond to Ye Xinghuan's feelings for her, and she can't respond, not all Lan Yan can be converted into a couple relationship, she just hopes that they can be friends well and stop at the dividing line of love.

"It's okay, I thought about it too." Ye Xinghuan smiled bitterly and shrugged his shoulders seemingly relaxed: "Since that's the case, then I'll go home." ”

After that, he turned to look at the gray sky outside the hall, raised his steps and walked out, his clothes were already soaked by the rain, Xia Yinhuan hurriedly called Liuli and said, "Hurry up and get an oil umbrella!" ”

Liuli hesitated for a moment, immediately understood, and panicked to the cabinet in the hall to take a brand-new tung oil umbrella, the umbrella surface is bright red plum blossoms, outlined vividly.

Xia Yinhuan snatched it from his hand, stretched out the umbrella as he walked, and followed Ye Xinghuan out of the hall, a few steps apart, she hurriedly stopped him: "Xinghuan, wait!" ”

As she spoke, she ignored the rainy steps and ran down with her skirt, the tung oil umbrella in her hand covered the top of his head, and the wind was too strong to blow her eyes: "You hold the umbrella, how can you go back if you don't take the flash?" ”

She always thinks that she is always like this at night, and she remembers that when it snows in the cold winter, he often walks without an umbrella and walks in the fine snow, and the road is white.

"Well, it doesn't matter." Although Ye Xinghuan said this, he still raised his hand and held the handle of the umbrella above her hand, held the umbrella in his hand and said to her calmly: "The wind and rain are strong, be careful of typhoid fever, you go back to the palace, don't worry about me." ”

Xia Yinhuan held the handle of the umbrella and didn't let go, was stunned and carefully observed his face and asked, "You, are you okay?" ”

"What can I do, you're thinking too much." Ye Xinghuan smiled calmly, forcibly pulled out the handle of the umbrella from her palm, and turned around with a gentle smile on her face, like spring light under a clear sky.

He turned and walked down the steps, step by step, his heels were stained, and step by step, the rain became heavier and heavier, hitting the surface of the umbrella, and pooling into droplets of water hanging on the corner of the umbrella, and dripping to the ground with his movements.

Xia Yinhuan opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she couldn't say a word like a fish thorn in her throat, he wanted to say sorry, but she had already said it, she knew that she had ignored his intentions for so long, trampled on his feelings at will, and no matter how many times she apologized, it was useless.

Even if she no longer draws a line with her now, she doesn't have the courage to take another step towards him, she only hopes that he can find his own life, and she can become his friend in the future.

"Mother, it's raining heavily, let's go back." Ruri followed worriedly, holding her hand and letting her go to the hall.

Xia Yinhuan turned her head and looked at it twice, until Ye Xinghuan's figure disappeared at the gate of the courtyard, she withdrew her gaze, but she was more worried about Ye Xinghuan.

Returning to the night of King Lian's Mansion, he rushed into the West Chamber, he didn't know how he walked back to King Lian's Mansion on foot, his feet were so sore that he was numb, and it almost didn't look like his own.

The oil umbrella was placed at the door by him, and the crystal water beads dripped down the umbrella page to the ground, forming a small pool of water stains.

His eyes touched the plum blossoms on the umbrella surface, and suddenly remembered the scene when he, Cang Linchen and Xia Yinhuan were boiling plum blossom tea in the imperial garden.

I don't know when it started, no matter what he saw, he could almost think of the days with Xia Yinhuan, it was the happiest and most fulfilling time in his life.

"Bang bang ......bang" There was a knock on the door, the door was half-hidden, and the little maid outside the door bowed to him respectfully and said, "Lord, early in the morning, the princess, no, it's Miss Liu, has gone back to the Shilang Mansion." ”

"Hmm." He responded weakly, his wet clothes sticking to his body in discomfort, and he was nestled in his chair, looking up at the ceiling and sighing.

She still left, with a slight pain in her heart, not severe and not negligible. In the end, he hurt her, such a good woman, willing to wait silently by his side, but in the end she got a letter of resignation.

Actually, he didn't want to drive Liu Yan away, although it was a royal marriage, Liu Yan was indeed a good person, and they were also very compatible, but he wanted to take Xia Yinhuan away, so it was better to let Liu Yan find someone more suitable for him.

However, providence makes people, all this has changed dramatically, Concubine Xiang's adultery with the child is not clear, Xia Yinhuan changed his mind, and who knows how much he has put into it for her words!

He didn't hate Xia Yinhuan, because he had no position, everything was voluntary, how could he hate it, and now he was the only one in this Lian Wangfu.

In the past, when Liu Yan was there, he would subconsciously know that there was another person in this mansion who accompanied him, although they had never lived together.

Now that he is gone, he suddenly feels empty in his heart, as if he has lost something and can never find it again.

"Miss, are we coming back like this, and you won't do anything?" In the Shilang Mansion, Dong'er's brows were twisted into a dead knot, and she watched Liu Yan sort out her clothes back and forth like no one else, and folded the dresses in the baggage brought back from Lian Wang's Mansion one by one neatly and put them into the closet.
