Yuwang Mansion.
In the Herui Hall, the concubine had just finished breakfast, sat cross-legged on the kang with her eyes closed, twisted a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, and chanted words in her mouth.
Suddenly, the Buddha beads spilled, and the concubine's chest was heart-wrenching.
The concubine's face turned pale, her hand pressed her chest, and she hurriedly went down the kang to pick up the Buddha beads.
The Buddha beads cannot be scattered, they cannot be scattered, and if they are scattered, they are unknown, and it is the Buddha who is warning them......
Seeing this, the maid hurriedly squatted down and picked it up with the concubine, the concubine counted, and there was one less, she was anxious, scolded the maid for being useless, and rummaged around.
Why is it gone?
At this time, Hu Qingyun came in from outside, looked at the busy master and servant in the house, and showed a mocking smile.
Buddha? Who can the Buddha bless again?
She bent down and picked up the beads that had rolled to the edge of the threshold.
"The concubine is looking for this?"
She held the beads in her palm.
"Yes!" The concubine's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly walked over to get it, breathing a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, you picked it up Yun'er, and I will string it up again." โ
Hu Qingyun closed his hands and covered the Buddha beads.
"Yun'er?" The concubine was confused.
"This kind of thing, I'm afraid the concubine won't need it in the future." Hu Qingyun smiled.
As soon as the words fell, a group of guards rushed into the courtyard outside the house, not the house slaves of the palace, but the Hu family slaves brought back by Hu Qingyun from the northwest, and they couldn't help but tie up the concubine's hands.
The beads were scattered all over the place.
"Hu Qingyun!" The concubine shuddered.
"The concubine is dissipated, and the concubine will take you to a good place." Hu Qingyun glanced at her with a smile, and the afterglow finally turned to disgust.
She finally didn't have to, and she couldn't please this old woman anymore.
"Let's go." The voice gets colder.
*
The palace of the king of Yu is now besieged by elite soldiers, and Fu Miao summoned all the guards to meet it with all his might, but he never expected that there was civil strife in the mansion.
When he heard the news that the concubine was kidnapped by Hu Qingyun, the whole person was shocked, shocked and angry, and immediately turned around and ran to the inner courtyard.
He would rather die himself than protect the concubine.
He must not let the prince suffer the pain of losing his loved ones again.
Never.
Hu Qingyun was waiting in Xirong Courtyard, thinking that a group of people would come, but he didn't expect it to be Fu Xuan.
She curled her lips mockingly.
Just by him, he also wants to save the concubine from her.
Is it that he is too arrogant, or that he is underestimating her?
Fu Miao was not polite to her, a sword pointed directly at her, and there was still blood on the sword, which was left by the enemy he had just killed.
"Hand over the concubine!"
Hu Qingyun shook his head and smiled, "Master Fu, why are you so excited. โ
Fu Xuan's hand holding the hilt of the sword tightened, he really wanted to kill this woman with a sword, but obviously, this was not a rational move.
If he kills her, the concubine will die too.
Moreover, he may not be able to kill her.
"Is the side concubine trying to rebel!" Fu Miao asked sharply.
"How so?" Hu Qingyun seems to be true and false: "I'm just protecting myself." โ
Captive?
Fu Miao was stunned, remembering what the prince had said.
Concubine Hu's purpose in coming to Beijing is complicated, first, to find out the movements of the capital, and second, if Concubine Hu is killed in the capital, then Hu Xian will definitely cause trouble in the northwest.
But if Concubine Hu confirmed that the prince had a motive to kill her, how could she be willing to die?
She will have to fight.
It's just that she's really stupid.
Fu Miao sneered, "If the side concubine wants to protect herself, she only needs to keep her duty." kidnapping the concubine, not forcing the prince to do it to you! โ
Hu Qingyun stared at him for a while, then suddenly smiled, "It turns out that you still don't understand." โ
Fu Miao was annoyed, "Understand what!" โ
"Now, do I still need to look at the prince's face and act?" Hu Qingyun felt that he was ridiculous, "Look at it, it's changed outside." โ
Hu Qingyun's eyes turned out of the window.
Fu Miao seemed to suddenly understand something.
But he didn't want to think about it.
Impossible...... How could it be!
Hu Qingyun looked at his increasingly pale face, and felt a little happy in his heart.
Their Hu family has long abandoned the darkness and followed His Majesty.
She came to the capital to cooperate with His Majesty.
Of course, she had a little extravagant hope in her heart, if the prince had her in his heart, even if it was only a little bit, she would swear to follow the prince to the death and never turn her back.
But what is the prince...... She was disappointed.
For so many years, from the throbbing of her youth to the company of husband and wife, she should have fed the dog. From today onwards, she lives only for herself.
Zhao Zhen, if you knew that you had today, would you regret it?
She lowered her eyelashes, and her gaze finally became cold and silent.
*
It is rare for the Qianqing Palace to burn such a large amount of spices, the incense mist lingers, and the doors and windows are closed.
"Mama, don't you feel choked by your majesty's use of so many spices?"
"Don't talk nonsense, keep your mouth shut!"
โโฆโฆ Oh. โ
Experienced old people in the palace know that this is not a spice, but a fragrance.
A fragrance that can keep people asleep all the time.
If you want to enter, you must first take a fragrant pill in your mouth to avoid being miserted by the incense mist.
The price of this incense is very expensive, a spoonful is worth a gold ingot, and the smoke is light and does not choke on the body.
Generally, only when His Majesty is restless and can't sleep, he will take it out and use it.
But it won't be used so much.
"Go and open the windows and bring out the incense burner." Grandpa Cui beside His Majesty held up the dust and dusted it off into the air.
"Yes."
*
When Yixuan woke up, it was late at night, the moon and stars were scarce, the doors and windows in the hall were open, the breeze was warm, and there was a dark fragrance floating in the air.
Her head hurts.
She felt like she had been asleep for a long, long time, completely unconscious, just a deep sleep.
Where is this?
She looked blankly for a while, trying to sit up, but because she had slept for too long, her limbs had not moved, and she felt a sour feeling, and she couldn't use it.
Tossed for a while before sitting up.
Little by little, the memories of before she fell into a coma came to her mind, and she remembered that she was having dinner with Li Concubine...... Yes, breakfast. After eating, they should go to Dali Temple to see Zhang Qianyuan's case go to trial.
But when it was time for breakfast, she was inexplicably ...... Fainted?
Yixuan touched her forehead, strange, she didn't have a fever.
Yixuan put on her shoes and walked outside. This should be the palace, but it doesn't look like the Chuxiu Palace of Li Concubine, so where is it?
Yi Xuan walked to the outer hall and saw the dragon chair facing the door, and her mind was blank for a moment.
Qianqing Palace?
How could she be in Qianqing Palace?
In order to confirm her guess, she walked a few more steps, looked around, and found that she had indeed walked out of the inner hall of the Qianqing Palace.
That is, Zhao Yan's dormitory.
โฆโฆ
Yixuan was stunned for a while, and couldn't help but look down and check her clothes, they were still the one in the morning, and she hadn't changed them.
As for the body...... There is nothing unusual either.
Zhao Yan's personality is a little stubborn, but he will not take advantage of others.
She breathed a sigh of relief and continued to walk outside.
Usually, there should be a lot of people and guards inside and outside the Qianqing Palace, but I didn't see a single one today.
It's weird.
"Are you awake?"
Someone spoke to her right.
Yixuan turned her head and saw Zhao Yan with her back against the pillar, looking at her with a shallow smile. Under the moonlight, his eyes were as calm and gentle as jade.
Yixuan subconsciously took a step back.
Zhao Yan watched her movements, pursed her lips, and didn't say anything.
"Why am I here?"
The girl's voice was cold.
"You fainted in the morning, and I brought you here just to give you a good rest."
He was sincere in every word.
But Yixuan didn't believe it.
She has never fainted for no reason, and it is too much of a coincidence that she fainted inexplicably in the morning and woke up and was lying here again!
"Concubine Li, I want to see her."
In the morning, she must ask Concubine Li to ask clearly.
"Concubine Li is in Chuxiu Palace, and she should have fallen asleep by now. You want to see her can be tomorrow. โ
Yixuan bit her lip, okay, anyway, I'm not in a hurry at this time.
"I'm going out of the palace." She said.
The other side was silent for a while, and said, "The palace gate has already given the key, tomorrow." You haven't eaten all day, so you can't go on like this, so let's eat something first, okay? โ
"Your Majesty, what the hell do you want to do?" Her voice trembled slightly.
She must have missed something very important.
She panicked and wanted to know what was going on, but the other party always avoided it perfunctorily, which made her feel more and more uncertain.
What went wrong with Zhang Qianyuan's case?
Zhao Yan looked at her for a while, then suddenly stood up straight and approached her, and whispered, "I want to protect you." โ
Yixuan almost blurted out "no", but suddenly felt that something was wrong.
A person only needs protection when he is in danger.
She didn't.
Or rather, she didn't know what danger she was in.
"What's wrong?" Instead, she calmed down.
Zhao Yan smiled bitterly, "Zhang Qianyuan, that chaotic minister and thief, is really vicious. He hid a dagger with him, and when King Yu went to prison to take him in prison, he pulled out the dagger and ...... King Yu"
He was silent for a long time, and Yixuan was anxious: "What's wrong with him, prince!" โ
Zhao Yan lowered his eyes and said bitterly: "He died." โ
Yixuan's breathing stagnated, and the sky shook in an instant, tearing her heart and lungs.
No, he is so powerful, he won't die, how could Zhang Qianyuan kill him with just one Zhang Qianyuan......
"You lied to me!" The girl was full of tears, staring at Zhao Yan with hatred, gritting her teeth.
Zhao Yan nodded: "If you feel better like this, just think I'm lying to you." โ
โฆโฆ
Yixuan's face was bloody.
It was as if all life was drained in an instant, and it turned into a soulless stone statue, crumbling and trembling violently.
She hugged herself because she suddenly felt so cold.
She slowly squatted down, tears falling to the ground one by one, and her whole body was curled up, looking extremely pitiful.
The phrase repeated, "Impossible." โ
Zhao Zhen, I don't allow you to die.
Aren't you, powerful?
Nothing will overwhelm you, nothing will bring you down.
It's just a Zhang Qianyuan, if you are killed by him, won't it make people laugh?
Yixuan's crying voice became louder and louder, covering her face with her hands, crying hoarsely, and her liver and intestines were broken.
She had never cried like this in her life.
She never knew she had so many tears.
Zhao Yan looked at the girl's trembling shoulders silently, stretched out his hand and patted her comfortingly.
Yixuan raised her head, her vision was blurred, and her voice was hoarse and unpleasant:
"If he dies, Zhao Yan, you killed him."
