Xiangxiang knew that Concubine Li would be sentenced to death with a cane, and watched the living being beaten to death, I don't know if she had experienced too many cruel things in the palace, and when she came to greet Shen Yan at night, she was much calmer than Mr. Shen.

Shen Yan said: "The emperor specially reminded the prince that he wanted to take you, did he want to give you the title of princess?" ”

Xiangxiang didn't understand either, she only knew that the emperor seemed to be interested in her, but even if she didn't have the identity of the princess, she was already a woman of Qi Hui, and she was watching countless pairs of eyes in the Mingde Hall that day, what else did the emperor want?

"I haven't even spoken to him." Xiangxiang sighed, "It's really strange that the emperor is like that. ”

"You're likable, you know it, right?" Shen Yan smiled and whispered, "My aunt told me that she felt that Jian Feng seemed to have some regrets, he was the first person to meet you, but he missed it. Of course, don't think about it, maybe Jian Feng just thinks that he hopes to meet a woman as good as you in the future. He has a deep brotherly relationship with the prince and Pang Gongzi, and since he knows that you are the prince's person, he will no longer think about it. ”

Although Xiang Xiang was a little surprised, if you think about it, it would not be strange if Lord Jian had this thought, but he did miss it with himself, Xiang Xiang said: "Even if Lord Jian was interested at that time, I didn't dare to accept it, he is a child of a family, I am a lowly dancer, how is it possible?" Seeing that Mr. was puzzled, obviously referring to Qi Hui, Xiangxiang smiled, "At that time, he was a person who was abandoned in the cold palace, I feel that I am a good match for him, and now I am a little inferior, so I just study more." ”

Shen Yan couldn't cry or laugh, but sighed that if the red line was held by two ends, it was doomed, and it couldn't be wrong.

The topic diverted to Jian Feng, Shen Yan's panic was also reduced a lot, and persuaded Xiangxiang not to stare at it as much as possible, his ears couldn't be blocked, and the screams would inevitably be unable to shake off for several days, Shen Yan said that she would take Xiangxiang to chant and meditate to eliminate sinful karma.

When Xiangxiang returned to the bedroom, he saw Qi Hui laying out the futon, he did all these things by himself when he was in the cold palace, and he didn't have to do it after Xiangxiang. Somehow, when Xiangxiang saw it at this moment, he was a little distressed, and stepped forward and said: "You now have a daughter-in-law and a servant, and you are not allowed to do this kind of thing in the future." ”

Qi Hui didn't say much, only obediently agreed: "Got it." But he was very uneasy after all, and asked Xiangxiang, "If you don't want to go the day after tomorrow, I can find a reason for you to shirk it, and you can just ignore that kind of thing." ”

Xiangxiang closed his eyes peacefully to sleep, and said seriously: "He really came to rob me, you will not let him succeed, so what else am I afraid of?" I just want to be able to stand behind you better, so I follow my husband, and I don't want to be hidden at home by you. ”

Qi Hui held her hand under the quilt, but Xiangxiang said: "Be honest tonight, I'll be there in a few days, what if I have a child?" ”

Qi Hui asked, "Do you know these things?" ”

Xiangxiang turned over and left Qi Hui's back: "My mother taught me, my mother said that we are young and strong, but we must be temperate and don't hurt our bodies." ”

Qi said sullenly: "My mother still told you this." ”

Xiangxiang struggled for a while, pushed her husband away and covered her head and fell asleep, covered herself in the quilt and said: "I'm studying now, clear and lacking desires, you have to be considerate of me." ”

This night, Qi Hui tossed a lot, but the fragrant and soft people couldn't touch it on the side, they were all in the best years, they were full of endless energy, they couldn't sleep over and over, and they weren't in a good mood the next day.

Xiangxiang said earnestly: "They are all adults, you can't be childish, you have to take care of your body." After leaving her husband and going to the study, she wanted to hurry to say good morning to her husband, although she and Shen Yan were almost sisters, but the etiquette of respecting teachers must not be sloppy.

Qi Hui was not angry, and seeing that Xiangxiang was so energetic and fulfilling, his heart was even more comforted, so he also cheered up and continued to deal with General Wang's affairs, and must collect all the evidence and petitions within today. If you help General Wang this time, General Wang and his cronies will become their own people in the future. As for the embezzlement of military spending, grain and grass, with Jian Feng's abacus here, everything can be investigated. Although he is only a small man, the gold and silver of the entire empire are in his heart, and those who think they are hiding people's ears and corrupt the law cannot escape his eyes.

Another day passed, and the petitions for General Wang came one after another, and the accounts of the military expenses of the firearms battalion were clear, and even if the emperor could not understand them, he knew that if they dared to present them, there would be no mistake. He sat in front of the table in a daze, staring at the piles of twists and turns, his eyes were scarlet and his hands were clenched into fists, and the eunuch in front of the door saw this posture, took a breath, turned around and said to Pang Jun: "Prime Minister, the emperor doesn't seem to be very happy, you see ......"

Pang Jun glanced in front of the palace and saw the emperor sitting alone on a high place, he understood in his heart that what the prince had learned in the palace for 20 years was how to survive under the authority of the first emperor. But another person, who has learned in the past 20 years, is really the ability of how to govern the world, if it was Qi Hui who was sitting in the main hall at the moment, Pang Jun would never stand here.

"The time for the first emperor's mourning is coming, you should remind the emperor. Wait for Concubine Li's execution, in case the time is delayed, it will not be good to miss the auspicious time. Pang Jun coldly ordered the attendant, and then turned around and left.

The eunuchs brought pale filial piety clothes and carefully sent them into the Mingde Palace, before they reached the table, but when they saw the emperor violently push the folds to the ground, they were so frightened that the attendants fell to the ground and confessed, and the folds crackled all over the ground, he got up angrily and trampled them under his feet, he didn't expect that there would be so many people who were not afraid of death, and would rather offend the emperor than save a general.

"Emperor, Emperor, everything is ready outside Chonghui Gate, after Concubine Li's execution, she will mourn for the first emperor, and the time has come." The eunuch on the ground held up his filial piety clothes and said tremblingly, "Please also ask the emperor to move outside the Chonghui Gate." ”

The emperor frowned, almost attacking these minions, but suddenly remembered someone and hurriedly asked, "Prince Shuo...... Couples are coming? ”

The word "couple" made him angry, but he had to mention it like this, and he didn't necessarily have to ask directly, did the one named Xiangxiang come, but when he heard the satisfactory answer, the emperor strode out, and the eunuchs were so frightened that he asked him to change his filial piety clothes.

When he hurried to Chonghui Gate, the royal officials bowed to the ground, and he stood high on the top, eager to find Xiangxiang's figure in a crowd of white flowers.

But everyone was wearing plain filial piety clothes, bowing to the ground, and they couldn't tell for a while, the emperor said anxiously, but it was so coincidental that he saw Qi Hui get up, and he reached out to help his wife next to him, Xiangxiang, who was dressed in snow-white filial piety clothes, was beautiful.

When her mother died, outside the Mingde Palace, Song Jingshu came in plain clothes, but she took off layer by layer, and finally appeared naked in front of the emperor and him, so that the emperor would have a faint nausea when he saw the plain clothes now, but looking at Xiangxiang at this moment, it made him pious.

Outside the solemn Chonghui Gate, the torture instruments have been set up, I have never heard of the emperor executing in the palace, but the first emperor was assassinated by Concubine Li, and the emperor wants to give an explanation before the funeral of the first emperor, which seems to be reasonable, but there are already female relatives in the queue who can't bear it, and they can't wait to cover their ears and blindfold them.

Concubine Li has not been brought, but there is a child's cry first, the third prince was carried by several eunuchs, he was not treated and humiliated, he still lived in the palace in pampering, but the emperor asked him to face the cruelest reality, let him watch his biological mother being beaten to death. The child's cry pierced people's hearts sharply, Concubine Li had not yet been punished, and everyone could no longer look directly at the cruelty of the new monarch.

It turned out that the first emperor died, but this absurd world still did not change, and the new monarch used all legitimate reasons to do the same thing as the first emperor.

"Mother ......" The child's screams made people realize that Concubine Li was brought, only to see Concubine Li, who was embarrassed in prison clothes, was dragged up, she had been tortured when she was tried in prison, and there were blood marks everywhere on her prison uniform, she was unable to stand up straight, and after being thrown down, she fell to the ground and could not get up again.

"Mother! Mother! The third prince struggled to pounce on his mother, but the eunuchs sent him to Concubine Jing's side, Song Jingshu sat on the shoulders wrapped in snow-white clothes and did not come down, this is the emperor's permission, because her foot injury has not healed, and the person who is being tortured today is the person who broke her toe in the past.

Concubine Li heard the child's cry, looked up with difficulty, and saw Song Jingshu pinching the back of the third prince's neck to prevent him from running around, that hideous smile was the face she used to treat Song Jingshu, and in a blink of an eye, they changed their identities.

"She has killed many people, cruel and cold-blooded, blinded my mother's eyes, and tortured me and my mother." Qi Hui heard Xiang Xiang muttering these words very softly, he glanced at it slightly, covered it with his wide sleeves, and secretly took Xiang Xiang's hand.

"I shouldn't have had pity on her, I shouldn't have sympathized with her, she deserved it." Xiangxiang continued to chatter.

"Don't be afraid, you don't have to look at it." Qi Hui finally spoke up.

"But the kid...... The third prince was only six years old. Xiangxiang felt uncomfortable when he didn't say it.

"When I was so old, I saw my mother's eyes being incense, maybe he could survive like me." Qi Hui said softly, "Don't tell what is right and wrong at this moment, there will be a clear world in the future, just get through this moment." ”

"The emperor's ......" suddenly heard a terrible voice, everyone was shocked, the dying Concubine Li seemed to have exhausted all her strength, raised her head high, looked at the emperor on the seat, her eyes were like copper bells, and her voice was sharp, "Your Majesty, this is not your brother, the third prince is not your brother." ”

The emperor was shocked, suddenly realized something, and motioned to the guards to stop Concubine Li's mouth, but she shouted louder and louder: "You three brothers, you don't know where you came from, the first emperor can't give birth at all, he can't give birth to children......"
