Chapter 173: Luan Wen's Dog Belt
Mama Yu was bold and moved her eyes to the face of the ghost outside the window again, although the long hair and white clothes were terrifying, but the face was extraordinarily beautiful, and the two pairs of curved eyebrows and eyes were like a crescent moon in the sky, exuding soft eyes.
Mama Yu blinked, and when she was sure that it was not a hallucination, the face outside the window suddenly changed, the eyelids, the tip of the nose and even the whites of the eyes, red rashes were everywhere, there was no good meat on the face, and then a crack like a turtle shell appeared on the face, revealing bright red flesh inside.
This appearance is very similar to the picture of the tragic death of Concubine Xian back then.
Mama Yu also participated in the incident back then, and now she saw the unjust soul asking for her life, and she fell to the ground with a roll of her eyes, unconscious.
By the day of the second day, Fengyi Palace was already filled with a strange atmosphere, the palace maids and eunuchs didn't dare to say a word, there was deep horror hidden in their eyes, and everyone bowed their heads like walking corpses to do their own things.
Keeping their mouths shut is the only thing they can do. They wouldn't tell anyone that they had seen a terrifying face yesterday, like a ghost crawling out of the eighteen layers of hell, and as soon as they closed their eyes, a strange smile appeared in front of their eyes.
Even if Empress Chu wanted to block this news, she couldn't bear the ghost of Concubine Xian who would appear every night. Some of the timid ones had been frightened into catching a cold and fever, and one of the frightened palace maids and Fleur had been fed poison and thrown into the dry well.
Empress Chu was frightened as early as the first haunted night, her silver teeth clenched, and she said hatefully: "Someone must be pretending to be a ghost and trying to scare this palace, who in this palace has clean hands, why are they all safe and sound?" You all guard it well, and if you can find out the person who is playing the ghost, this palace will be rewarded. ”
Every night, the guards are on standby, guarding all over the Fengyi Palace, but no one can catch this ghost, even if they catch the sleeves, the other party can easily break free, as if it is really a ghost outside Liuhe.
Paper can't hold the fire, Concubine Lian's people have been staring at Fengyi Palace, and they can know it when the wind blows, let alone such a big thing.
……
"You did that." Jiang Cailing pushed open the door of the study of Range Rover Academy, and a pair of swarthy eyes looked at Su Qingcheng half-squinted.
Su Qingcheng put down the pen in his hand, "Since you want to force Luan Wenzhi to rebel, the method you mentioned is nothing more than a trivial matter for him, not unbearable." And even if he can endure the ghost of Concubine Xian, his father can't bear it. ”
"That's not what I'm asking."
Jiang Cailing's eyes suddenly turned cold, and her voice couldn't hear the slightest bit of temperature, "Pretending to be a ghost is just a little fur in the eyes of Empress Chu, you can make her so convinced, unless the person who pretends to be a ghost looks very similar to Concubine Xian, unless it is a disguise." ”
Su Qingcheng's eyebrows didn't move, "The witchcraft of the Chu State is the best among the five kingdoms, and there are so many people who are good at disguise, why are you so surprised?" ”
Jiang Cailing said, "A junior disguiser can only change a person's face slightly, and only a senior disguiser can completely dress up a person as another person." Although there are many people in the Chu State who learn to change their appearance, there are really not many people who can achieve the latter's technique, and that person should be related to the owner of Penglai Island. ”
Su Qingcheng raised his eyebrows, "As you said, you are a disciple of Penglai Island." ”
Her conjecture was confirmed to be a reality, and Jiang Cailing's tone was full of anxiety, "Where is that person?" ”
Su Qingcheng's thin lips spit lightly, "Kill." ”
These two words are like two blades of scissors, lightly cutting off the clue.
Jiang Cailing did not doubt Su Qingcheng's words, in her opinion, getting rid of all human and material evidence that was unfavorable to him was his usual means.
The room fell silent, the green smoke from the red sandalwood rose incense burner on the ivy table slowly soared, and a few poppies were inserted in the blue and white glazed flower bottles.
Su Qingcheng's eyes were gloomy, and there was no sadness or joy in his voice, "You seem to be very interested in Yi Rong." ”
Jiang Cailing's eyelashes covered her eyelids, "I read about disappearance in a book, I thought it was a lost ancient technique, but I didn't expect that someone could really change his face." ”
Su Qingcheng nodded, hiding the expression between his eyebrows, and his tone revealed casual concern, "You have become more and more energetic recently, I will ask Shoufu to come over tomorrow to show you." ”
Jiang Cailing shook her head, and when she looked down, she happened to see the white rice paper on Su Qingcheng's table, which depicted a woman with bright eyebrows and eyes.
Jiang Cailing's eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and she looked up at Su Qingcheng with a complicated gaze.
Su Qingcheng didn't dodge either, his slender fingers lifted the rice paper, his eyes lingered between Jiang Cailing's face and the portrait on the paper, and a gorgeous poppy-like smile rose on his lips, "Do you feel like you?" ”
Jiang Cailing said lightly, "What do you want to do?" ”
"Within three days, Luan Qingcheng will force the palace, and I will lead the troops in the name of quelling the chaos, and I will directly let my father abdicate."
"And then?" Jiang Cailing didn't understand what this had to do with the portrait.
"After the enthronement ceremony, I will give you what you want."
Jiang Cailing calculated the days in her heart, and in half a month, Gu Jiming should be able to reach Nan'an City.
What happened next, Jiang Cailing was not worried.
She could imagine what kind of emotions the Chu Emperor should have in his heart once he learned the truth about the death of his beloved woman. For so many years, he has always regarded the murderer as a person who can be trusted, which is how mocking it is for the undead of the virtuous concubine.
After such a blow, Emperor Chu is bound to be greatly injured, and once the tiger declines, it is the best time to catch it all.
Jiang Cailing no longer paid attention to why Su Qingcheng painted her portrait, and looked at him deeply with a pair of swarthy apricot eyes, "Whether you want to kill your brother and father, I won't be nosy, but you can't hurt Xie Cheng's family." ”
The corners of Su Qingcheng's lips raised, he looked up and looked back at Jiang Cailing, looking at the familiar facial features on the face of the woman opposite, but he felt that he had become unfamiliar, his eyes fluttered for a moment, he didn't know whether it was a conversation or talking to himself, and said softly, "It turns out that you have a heart." ”
"What?"
"It's nothing, you go back and rest first, I will arrange things for the next few days, you don't need to worry about it."
Listening to the sound of pushing the door and the footsteps fading away, a trace of disappointment appeared in Su Qingcheng's eyes.
If you really have a heart, why would you lie to me?
A bewitching dark red look flashed under the eyes of the amber pupils, which made Yanyun, who had just come in to tell the matter, see it, and the latter couldn't help but shudder.
……
What Su Qingcheng said was indeed true, and when Emperor Chu learned that the woman he loved that year was killed by the queen and others, he was very emotional, and even turned the queen and the prince into commoners regardless of the obstruction of the ministers.
Luan Wenzhi was unwilling to give up the hegemony at his fingertips in a ghost that he didn't know whether he was a human or a ghost, and immediately united General Wu and other battalions of the old subordinates to try to force the palace at night.
The palace was full of blood, the sound of swords colliding, the shouts of soldiers, and the screams of women and children were endless, and the firelight reflected the sky like a red curtain stained with blood, and panic and killing and plundering shrouded the night sky of Nan'an City and even the entire Chu State.
Du Nianyu came to the courtyard for the first time that night, with a soft smile on his face, as if he heard not the sound of bloody fighting, but the most beautiful orchestral music in the world.
He Xiaoxiao wanted to get rid of her, but saw Jiang Cailing shake her head and asked the others to retreat.
There were no candles lit in the room, but the light of the fire in the palace was like a huge sun, reflecting every grass, tree, person and scene in the Ten Princes' Mansion very clearly.
Du Nianyu walked to Jiang Cailing, who was standing by the window, the corners of her lips gradually raised, but there was a compassionate emotion in her voice, "Sister Cailing, in order to get the snow dragon ginseng that saved your life, now your life is ruined, can it be as you wish?" ”
The corners of Jiang Cailing's lips pursed into a straight line, and she looked at Du Nianyu's face coldly.
There was no half of emotion on that face, only a high smile, and soft eyebrows and eyes were the same as back then, but it made her feel very strange.
She is no longer the Linglong who will protect her and persuade her to endure everything.
A trace of sadness appeared in his heart, and he sighed and said, "Linglong, how did you become what you are now?" ”
Hearing this, Du Nianyu suddenly laughed and tore off Roushan's mask, "After so many years, haven't you changed?" How good you were when you first entered the palace, you looked like a born calf who was not afraid of tigers, and followed me and called me Sister Linglong.
But now, the human life on your hands is no less than mine, so why do you accuse me of change? I really regret it now, why didn't I poison you at that time, otherwise, my own brother would not have been killed by you! ”
Thinking of the scenes that happened in the palace of the Zhou Kingdom, Jiang Cailing's eyes flashed with pain, "You used all the mandala flower poison, I don't know if you didn't have a soft heart at that time, what method would you want to use to kill me?" ”
The two of them can't go back to the beginning, and the two good sisters who snuggled up to each other to warm up through the difficult nights in the palace seem to be the beautiful dreams they weave together.
Now that dream is shattered.
No, it was already in tatters a long time ago.
Without speculating for more than half a sentence, this conversation did not continue.
That night, Xie Hou led the Xie family army to storm the palace to protect His Majesty. The battlefield for seizing the throne was not only in the imperial palace, but also in other parts of the Chu State, and the troops under Xie Cheng and Su Qingcheng were cutting off the reinforcements of Luan Wenzhi's army under their subordinates on the border.
By the time there was more news in the palace, it was already a day and a night.
The great eunuch beside Emperor Chu led everyone into the Ten Princes' Mansion and read out the holy decree:
"The Ten Princes Luan Qingcheng, Jiuye Xiangfu, Su Zhangqi Table, Tianzhong Shenwu, Zhiyun Deep. The political turmoil of the prince forcing the palace to seize the throne before the peace of the peace, the emperor is located in Qingcheng, and the priest prepares the ceremony, and the time is awarded. Hundreds of officials, down to the people, should be known only to be respected, in order to praise me. [note 1]
Jiang Cailing knelt down to accept the order, and her fan-like eyelashes covered the look in her eyes.
Emperor Chu has finally passed on the throne.
