Chapter 501: A Fork in the Road of Fate
Erniang was lying in the carriage with her eyes closed, when she suddenly felt that the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and then someone came in. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Shen Wei.
Erniang quickly sat up.
Shen Wei's face was a little pale, and his face was also very tired, as if he was a little unwilling.
This is the first time Erniang has seen such a Shen Wei, in her impression, this husband of his, has always been dignified and personable, and even such a thing as wrinkles on his clothes will never appear on him.
"Husband...... You...... What's wrong? "Erniang originally wanted to call her husband, but she thought of the last time...... She swallowed the word.
Shen Wei suddenly raised his head and stared at Erniang tightly, Erniang was startled and leaned back against the wall of the car.
Shen Wei said with red eyes: "Your Majesty, he is not injured?" ”
Erniang was stunned when she heard this, and then nodded: "Although I have been pretending to be dizzy, I still pay attention to the surrounding situation." When the emperor was choked by the monk Nafahai, Sanniang's husband arrived and killed Fahai with an arrow. The emperor was unscathed. ”
"Xuan Shao?" In Shen Wei's bottomless black eyes, dark clouds rolled, and the hands under the sleeves were clenched into fists.
Erniang nodded: "There are also Sanniang and a palace maid, they tried desperately to stop the assassin, and in the end, the palace maid was seriously injured, I don't know if she died." ”
"Sure enough......" Shen Wei lowered his head and muttered, but his voice was too small, and Erniang didn't hear what he said clearly.
"You...... Okay? Erniang was a little worried, she naturally saw that Shen Wei's mood at this time was a little wrong. The Shen Wei in front of her made her feel very strange, and it also made her feel a little frightened.
Shen Wei closed his eyes, leaned against the wall of the car, and didn't say a word.
Erniang looked at him and didn't dare to speak.
In fact, she also had a lot of questions in her heart, but she didn't dare to ask Shen Wei.
Today, Shen Wei asked the maid to send her a message, saying that she should find a way to let Sanniang go to Yuquan Palace. She originally thought that Shen Wei had no love for Sanniang. I want to take the opportunity to meet. But what happened after that made her feel that something was wrong. Shen Wei asked the maid to give her a pill, saying that it would make her conscious and make her faint when she encountered chaos.
She thought that Shen Wei was going to calculate Sanniang. She was also happy in her heart, so she kept paying attention to Sanniang's expression, but she saw that Sanniang seemed to be no different from usual.
She was a little confused. And then something happened.
Although she didn't understand it at the time, there was one thing she understood, that is, she wanted to see Sanniang unlucky. So when Sanniang wanted to retreat, she saw Fahai take out a dagger to assassinate the emperor, so she pushed Sanniang towards the emperor who was about to dodge. thought that if the emperor could use Sanniang as a knife, it would be the best. It's a pity that things didn't go in the direction of her calculations.
It's just that she still hasn't figured out Shen Wei's intentions, if he wants to harm Sanniang, why hasn't Sanniang done anything? Erniang even suspected that Shen Wei had also let Sanniang take medicine in advance.
But she is not stupid, she naturally understands one thing, that is, Shen Wei is inseparable from today's assassination. At least she knew that the emperor would be assassinated in Yuquan Palace. And judging from his reaction just now, he should have hoped that this assassination would be successful.
Thinking like this, Erniang felt a little indescribable excitement in her heart. She felt that she already had some idea of what her husband wanted to do.
When the carriage returned to Shen's mansion, Shen Wei got out of the carriage when a person hurriedly ran over.
"Childe, there was news from the palace just now, and the third prince is a little bad." The man said hurriedly.
Shen Wei reached out to help Erniang's hand. Frozen in the air.
Erniang just wanted to hold Shen Wei's hand in the carriage, but Shen Wei had already withdrawn his hand, turned around and got on the horse of a squire behind him, turned the horse's head and left.
Erniang glanced at her outstretched hand in embarrassment, and Shen Wei couldn't even see his back.
The maid hurriedly went to help Sanniang get out of the car.
Mrs. Shen, who got off the car in front, came over and asked, "What's wrong with Wei'er?" What happened? ”
The messenger said it again.
Mrs. Shen was taken aback: "How is it possible?" When I had just come back from the palace. The third prince is fine, how can he say that he is sick when he is sick? Mrs. Shen didn't know that the third prince began to vomit milk as soon as she stepped out of Fengxu Palace in front of her.
Erniang had already recovered from the embarrassment just now, and she stepped forward to comfort Mrs. Shen and said, "Mother, the third prince is a prince, so naturally everyone is worried about a little problem. According to the daughter-in-law, the three princes are healthy and healthy on weekdays, how can they say that they are sick? Rest assured.
Mrs. Shen felt that there was some truth, so she didn't say anything.
Erniang returned to her yard and immediately ordered the maids to bring water in and take a bath. She fell to the ground today in order to pretend to faint, and she was still wearing that body, and she felt uncomfortable when she thought about it.
And for some reason, she felt that her body was so tired that she couldn't even walk. What made her feel even more strange and difficult to open her mouth was that there was some discomfort in the lower part of her body. Sometimes it hurts when you move. This symptom has appeared since she came out of the side hall of Ci'an Palace.
At that time, she was still startled, but she remembered that when she was in the side hall, she had been sitting there meditating, and the monks were also chanting scriptures on the side, and there were so many grandmothers and palace maids in the inner hall.
And when she came out, the maid sent by Shen Wei to find her was standing outside the side hall, and she asked the maid because she was a little uneasy, but the maid said that she only heard the chanting sound coming from inside. Erniang was relieved, thinking that it might be because of the secret arts.
The maid Zhen'er was waiting for Erniang to take a bath when she suddenly said "Huh".
"Young lady, you ...... Is the monthly letter in advance? ”
Erniang turned her head and saw a little blood stain on the profane pants she had just faded off, she wanted to say that it might have been stained when she was in Yuquan Palace, but the blood stain was only a little bit on the profane pants that were not easy to see. But there is no on the coat.
Erniang remembered the discomfort in her lower body, and suddenly became a little scared, she stood up from the bathtub, and hurriedly began to look at her whole body. But the skin on his body was white and delicate, and there was no other trace at all.
"Young lady, what's wrong with you?" Zhen'er looked at Erniang with some strange eyes.
Erniang frowned: "You go out first." ”
In the past, when Erniang was bathing, Zhen'er was served, and Zhen'er was a little strange. But I still took the clothes that Erniang had changed and went out.
Erniang saw that there was no one else in the clean room, so she came out of the bathtub and walked to the side of the pony and sat down. Holding back shame and looking under him.
She had never looked at her body like this, and she was inevitably a little ashamed, but she couldn't see anything. Just remembering the pain at the base of my thigh. She couldn't help but spread her legs a little, but she found that the hidden places on the inner thighs of both sides near the roots were a little blue.
Erniang suddenly felt like she was being drenched on her head by a basin of cold water, which made her tremble.
She didn't know what was going on, but she felt that she couldn't have been injured for no reason in that hidden place.
And she thought of the fact that those palace people were controlled when she was in Yuquan Palace today......
Although Erniang only had some doubts, this suspicion made her a little unbearable.
"It can't be...... I must have scared myself...... How dare they ......" Erniang comforted herself one by one.
********
After Shen Wei rode out of Shen's house on horseback, he stopped at the gate of the palace.
He pulled his horse and stood in the shadow outside the palace wall, looking at the majestic and solemn red palace gate in a daze.
He felt that something must be wrong, otherwise how could everything be messed up?
People who should have been seriously injured and died soon ago were unharmed. And it was supposed to grow up healthy and healthy. In the end, he became an ungrateful man who hated him so much, but suddenly he fell ill.
He longed for that man to die, but he didn't want him to die now. Because if he dies at this time, where will he have the opportunity to arrange those justifiably?
And the current emperor, he has never really paid attention to it. In his mind, Emperor Shunde was just a short-lived emperor with empty ambitions. Who's going to tell him, what the hell is going on?
"Could it be that this time it's also because of the Wang family's Sanniang and Xuan Shao?" Shen Wei clenched his fists, his face cold.
At this moment, a figure walked up to him.
Shen Wei looked up in a daze, but met a pair of familiar eyes.
"What's wrong with you?" Prince Li has just come out of the palace. was about to go home, but he saw Shen Wei standing on the side of the road with a dejected face, and he didn't even have an entourage by his side.
Shen Wei looked at Prince Li for a long time, but his face was still expressionless.
Prince Li was a little worried: "Wei'er? What the hell is wrong with you? He couldn't help but whisper out what the two of them called in private on weekdays.
These two words seemed to make Shen Wei come back to his senses from his own world, he opened his lips, but only said two words: "It's nothing." ”
It was the first time for Prince Li to see his lover in such a fragile appearance, and he couldn't help but feel a little distressed. He looked around and saw that the sky had darkened, and there were only a few of his henchmen around, so he pulled Shen Wei into his carriage, he didn't dare to let Shen Wei stay here by himself.
"I'll send you back." The carriage went up, and Prince Li sighed.
Shen Wei suddenly pounced on Prince Li's body and bit his lip. He really did it with a bite.
Prince Li screamed and wanted to push the person away, but when his hand touched his waist, he held back, and finally could only sigh, lie on the carriage on all fours, and let Shen Wei gnaw.
When Shen Wei reached under him, Prince Li smiled bitterly and grabbed his hand: "Wei'er, this is the carriage." I'm going to send you home. ”
Shen Wei glanced at Prince Li fiercely, with a beast-like light in his eyes. Prince Rangli couldn't help but swallow his words.
It's just that Shen Wei himself stopped and sat up straight.
Prince Li also sat up and touched his head: "What's wrong?" Today you ...... That's not right. ”
Shen Wei leaned on Prince Li and closed his eyes.
Prince Li glanced at Shen Wei in surprise, he felt that Shen Wei seemed to be more fragile today than usual, as if he would be broken if he touched it.
"What would you do if you knew someone was in your way?" Shen Wei said with his eyes closed, his voice tired and calm.
Prince Li frowned: "It depends on what it is, it doesn't matter...... Forget it. ”
"Is life and death at stake?" Shen Wei then asked.
Prince Li was silent for a long time this time, but said: "Wei'er, although you also serve in the imperial court, you are just an idle position, and you just chant the wind and the moon every day. I can't think of anything that could happen to you that would befall you...... As for your father's ...... Wei'er, you are different from him, why should you be involved? ”
Shen Wei opened his eyes, but he still didn't look up, he pulled the corners of his lips and smiled, but there was some irony in this smile.
"Lord Wang, what do you want to say?" Shen Wei didn't look at Prince Li, and said softly.
Prince Li said seriously: "I have told you many times, the Shen family is the Shen family, and you are you." Even if one day, the Shen family is in trouble, I will protect you! ”
Shen Wei finally raised his head this time, and the sarcastic expression on his face was undisguised: "And then? Should I be held under you incognito for the rest of my life? Not even those prostitutes of yours? ”
Prince Li frowned: "Why do you always misinterpret my good intentions? You know I didn't mean that. ”
Shen Wei smiled: "The prince just said that even if one day, the Shen family is in trouble, you will protect me...... You are so sure that it is because the emperor plans to do something to the Shen family? ”
Prince Li's words stopped.
Shen Wei looked at Prince Li steadily: "If I say it, I will live and die with the Shen family...... Lord, what should you do? ”
Prince Li's brows furrowed: "This king has said many times......"
"The Shen family is the Shen family, I am me!" Shen Wei said casually, and then he chuckled and looked at Prince Xiangli, "Lord Wang, why don't you say that the royal is the royal family, you are you?" ”
Prince Li's lips moved, but he didn't know what to say.
Shen Wei looked at Prince Li for a long time, but shook his head, leaned on Prince Li's arms and closed his eyes and said, "I'm not going back, I'm going to you." ”
Prince Li was stunned, he looked down at Shen Wei, and saw that Shen Wei was just a little tired and lying in his arms, with no expression on his face, and he couldn't see any angry look.
He also thought that Shen Wei would quarrel with him this time, but he didn't want to stop here.
Thinking of Shen Wei's fickle nature, Prince Li smiled bitterly, except for helplessness.
It's just that today's words have made Prince Li entangled for a long time.
He felt that what he had thought about before was indeed a little unkind, if the Shen family was gone, what was Shen Wei's identity? He knew the pride of the man in his arms. If that day really comes, he and Shen Wei are afraid that they will also come to an end.
He didn't see it, but the person in his arms opened his eyes, and his eyes were very cold.
