Chapter 195: The Chamber of Secrets
Since this is the case, then His Royal Highness should make a full remorse now, not only for the emperor but also for the people. ”
The prince rubbed the beard on his chin and was very embarrassed: "But there has to be a reason!" It's been so long since the matter of Guiyifang, and now it's suddenly brought up again, wouldn't it be a bit presumptuous? Mishandling could lead to renewed public resentment and backfire. ”
"Yiwang's aftermath resettlement is nearing completion, and the deed for filling in the household can be issued after a while, so it's a good time to have the icing on the cake at this time. The crown prince did things decently, the emperor had a reason, a holy decree was issued, and the people would not have anything to say. ”
"Then it doesn't seem like it's a gamble!"
"If you don't do anything, Your Highness wants to get out of this Chenyang Palace, there is only one possibility of being abolished! King Yi will definitely not let go of this great opportunity easily! As far as the minister knows, the emperor has been teaching the king the way to be the king recently! ”
When he heard Dong Zheng say the words "the way of the king", his heart was even more angry, and he had already made up his mind as soon as his heart was horizontal.
"Dong Zheng, I need you to help me prepare something, although this thing is easy to get, but now King Yi's eyes are tight, I have to let you bring it from outside the palace!"
"What does Your Highness need?" Dong Zheng knew that there would be fewer days of scolding after that, so he felt comfortable and his face was a lot lighter.
"It's the same thing that makes people can't die, but it's hard to live around." The prince's eyes were fierce, and he leaned over Dong Zheng and muttered a few words, but Dong Zheng only sweated on the top of his head when he listened.
"Your Highness really wants this?"
"Of course it has to be like this, didn't you tell Gu to make Gu have to do enough tricks?"
Dong Zheng had no choice but to pay attention to himself, so he kowtowed on the ground and said, "The minister will go back and prepare." ”
Dong Zheng was about to leave, and several ministers behind him hurriedly followed out of the Chenyang Palace, and the wind outside the hall blew on everyone's body, and they found that they were all sweating profusely.
The glazed pavilion in the east palace was originally the place where the prince stored books and antiques, and its interior decoration was simple and elegant, not as dazzling and luxurious as the Chenyang Palace, but it had the calmness of the scroll itself. Under the eaves of the four corners, there are glass lamps and glass-made wind-dividing priests, and the sound of fine jingles in the wind is endless.
Above the glazed pavilion is a three-story wing, and Qianqian was arranged to live here when she came, but there are still two secret rooms from below.
The secret room is surrounded by stone walls, the gate is made of an inch-thick iron door, the outside is locked with iron chains, and there is a movable iron plate on the door, and even the head cannot be stretched out, let alone a person can escape from it.
There was nothing in the chamber except a bed made of wooden planks and two quilts with exposed cotton.
It is unguarded, and there is no light of day, except for two wrist-thick blowholes hidden under the rockery on the ground.
When the sun is good, there will be a trace of golden light falling, and the secret room that shines is finally brighter, when the sky is dark, you can only faintly see the figure in the secret room, if it rains, the secret room will be dark and damp, and it will be cold and refreshing.
Qianqian, Su Wenxue and Qiao'er have been locked up here for several months, three meals a day are sent in from the window above the iron door, every ten days the iron chain outside the gate is taken down, and only a gap is opened for one person to pass through, and the masked man dressed in black sent in two buckets of warm water and a change of clothes, and it is at this time that the candle flame shines into the secret room, and as soon as the person leaves, the candle flame is also taken away, and the secret room is soon dark again.
If Qianqian, Su Wenxue and Qiao'er on the Liuli Pavilion had seen the scenery of the entire Yongcheng alone, then they had tasted the darkness, loneliness, and pain in this secret room.
I don't know what the situation is outside, but the three girls have lost a lot of weight in the past few months, and their once bright eyes have dimmed.
Su Wenxue is no stranger to this kind of environment, compared to Rashotang, I don't know how many times better it is, and she firmly believes that his brother will not give up on them, she must be patient and wait, so she has not changed much in the past few months.
Qiao'er was born as a maidservant, and she suffered a lot before entering the Nangong Marquis Mansion, and she can still endure the environment here, except for the fact that she has lost a little weight, her face is a little pale, and her spirit and others are fine.
And Qianqian's situation is not so good.
She is everyone's best girl, she has been raised in the boudoir since she was a child, how can she ever encounter such a situation, and she can barely support herself in the first month of being locked up with the help and persuasion of Su Wenxue and Qiao'er, but the psychological defense line collapsed, and the situation became worse and worse.
Qianqian has always blamed herself for causing everyone to be tired, she is the thinnest of the three, almost out of shape, and the belt has to be wrapped around her twice to be tightened. The once thick black hair has become yellow and easy to break, like the dying grass in autumn.
What's worse is that recently Su Wenxue found that Qianqian's spirit also seemed to be wrong, often huddled in the corner alone and cried, and sometimes muttered to herself.
Su Wenxue had heard Qianqian sometimes shouting her mother, sometimes shouting her father, but more often she was sobbing and shouting, "Wenxi." ”
Every time she sees Qianqian like this, Wen Xue's heart is like a knife, what a good woman has been ruined because of the grievances of the previous generation.
Qiao'er knew that her persuasion had no effect, so she could only turn around helplessly and cry herself.
Su Wenxue knew that her brother was not there, and the only one who could take care of Qianqian was herself.
Every time Qianqian was like this, Su Wenxue gently grabbed Qianqian and let her lean on her chest, stroked her rough and dry hair and whispered comfort: "Qianqian, you have to hold on, you have to believe that my brother will not give up, and he will definitely save us." When we get out of here, it will be the time of the Prince's destruction. ”
Sometimes Qianqian didn't react at all, so she jokingly coaxed her and said: "You and my brother have visited the church and entered the cave room, you can't call me by my name anymore, you have to call me sister-in-law." ”
It is also at this time that Qianqian's deep-set eye sockets have a hint of brilliance, and the lips that have lost color can outline a shallow arc.
There are also some sounds occasionally coming from the air holes of the secret room, most of the time it is just a few footsteps, which should be the attendants of the East Palace passing by. Sometimes it was the sound of Suo Suo's rummaging, and Su Wenxue stopped when she coughed slightly, it was the sound of a mouse.
Sometimes Su Wenxue will tell Qianqian and Qiao'er: It seems that the life of the prince of the East Palace is not easy. There are rats in this courtyard.
At this time, Qianqian and Qiao'er finally nodded hard, and seemed to have the courage to wait again.
However, in recent days, there seems to be some differences, the sound outside is obviously a lot noisy, and sometimes you can even hear the voice of the crown princess Yilan. On this day, I don't know when the voice of the crown princess Yilan sounded outside again: "Be careful, don't break it, if you don't look good, it will depreciate a lot." ”
Su Wenxue was shocked in her heart, and she kicked on the ground with internal force, and then clicked twice on the wall of the secret room, and the whole person turned over, climbing firmly on the stone wall like a gecko.
