A basin of cold water poured Jiang Wanran to his senses.

Before she could react, she was slapped heavily in the face.

"Useless stuff." Zhong Yuxiu's eyes were full of anger, and he scolded sharply, "It's not that this palace doesn't help you, it's you who asked for it, and you can't complain about this palace." ”

Jiang Wanran looked in a trance, but there was no expression on her face calmly, she looked at Zhong Yuxiu in a daze, and looked at everything around her in confusion.

After a while, she realized that she was already in the cold palace. Everything here was even more difficult than she had imagined, withering everywhere, and even the cold wind coming from outside the door could drive straight in. At this time, she suddenly remembered Xiao Yu, and suddenly remembered the last moment, when he fell to the ground, so she looked at Zhong Yuxiu again, and said abruptly, "Niangniang...... Xiao Yu ...... Is he dead......"

Yuxiu glanced at her coldly, her eyes were full of disdain, "Sooner or later, don't remember him." ”

Wanran's eyes were instantly filled with tears, her body trembled slightly, and in a hurry, she grabbed Yuxiu's hand at once, and pleaded with her, "Please Niangniang, beg Niangniang to go and intercede with the emperor, it doesn't matter if I die, please let the emperor let Xiao Yu go......"

Wanran's dirt-stained hand grabbed Yuxiu suddenly, scared her into a fierce spirit, even the color on her face changed, and she hurriedly wanted to shake her off, but Wanran's strength was too great, Yuxiu couldn't break free after a few strokes, she was so anxious that her eyes widened, and she immediately called out, "Lanxiang, Lanxiang!" ”

Lan Xiang ran in with a few little eunuchs, and when she saw this scene, several little eunuchs immediately stepped forward and pulled Wanran down. Yuxiu still had palpitations, looking at the grief that fell to the ground gracefully, she couldn't help frowning and said, "This palace is kind enough to come to see you, don't expect this palace to help, concubine fornication is a big crime, the emperor left you a life is good, this palace itself still wants to save your life, where can I take care of saving you." ”

After that, she didn't look at Wanran anymore, turned around and walked away.

As soon as she got out of the cold palace, Yuxiu saw a group of people walking not far away, she caught a glimpse of the bright yellow, and immediately bent her knees and said, "The emperor is blessed with gold." ”

When the emperor saw Yuxiu, he was slightly shocked and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

Yuxiu was a little panicked, and hurriedly replied, "The concubine looked at Jiang's pity, so she wanted to come here to see her, so she ......"

"What do you pity her for?" The emperor interrupted her abruptly, his tone was cold, but his eyes were even sharper, "A woman who has lost her royal face and lost her mind, but you are very sympathetic to her?" ”

Yuxiu was flustered in her heart, and knelt down and said, "The concubines don't dare, the concubines don't dare, ask the emperor for forgiveness." ”

"Get up." There was a bit of indifference and distancing in the emperor's words, he stared at Yu Xiujiao's beautiful face, and said in a deep tone, "Put away your compassion and know what to do and what not to do." ”

Yuxiu's forehead was covered with cold sweat, where did she dare to say more, she hurriedly knocked a song, and said respectfully, "The concubine understands." ”

As soon as the words fell, the emperor stopped looking at her and walked straight to the cold palace.

When the emperor's figure disappeared, Lan Xiang dared to step forward to help her up, and said gently, "Is the master okay?" ”

Yuxiu's face was angry, and she spat fiercely and said, "It's all because Jiang Wanran, a slut, it's really unlucky." With that, she patted the dust on the hem of her clothes and turned her head, "Go back to the palace." ”

The cold palace is claustrophobic, and the dust everywhere is mixed with the slightest smell of blood. It's humid, it's stuffy, it's airtight.

Jiang Wanran was covered in water, and she curled up in the corner, looking at the group of people who came in with trepidation.

Cheng Dehai raised his chin and motioned to the two little eunuchs to send the chairs that had been prepared to the emperor, and said with a respectful face, "Your Majesty, don't go inside, you can sit here." ”

The emperor glanced at him, sat down uprightly, his eyes fell on Wanran's body slightly, tried to calm his tone, and said, "Just now, Yingxiang in your palace entered Shang Fangsi, and she couldn't stand the punishment, so she has already recruited all of them." ”

Jiang Wanran smiled coldly when she heard this, but her voice was extremely low, "Since the emperor knows everything, what are you doing here?" ”

The emperor frowned lightly, and a deep confusion appeared in his eyes, "There is only one thing she didn't do, and that is the matter of you testifying against the concubine." So I'm here to hear your explanation. ”

Wanran chuckled disdainfully, stared directly at the emperor, without a trace of evasion, "What does the emperor want to know?" ”

"I just want to ask if the matter between the concubine and the prince is true."

Wanran turned her face away, but the smile on her lips was warm and cold, "The emperor is so stubborn that he wants to pursue an answer, but he is also very afraid, the women around him betray you one by one, this kind of taste is not pleasant." ”

When the emperor heard this, his face gradually became ugly, and when Cheng Dehai saw this, he hurriedly rushed forward, and raised his hand to slap down, "Cheap girl!" When death is on the verge of death, you dare to speak wildly! ”

Jiang Wanran didn't know how many times she had been slapped in the past few days, both of her cheeks were high and swollen, and at this time, Cheng Dehai was unconscious.

She used to be a favorite concubine from above, but now she has been slapped by a minion, but she can't feel this kind of shame at all.

Wanran just smiled stupidly, and the smile was also sudden, "Although you are the emperor and the ninety-five emperor of the world, what you lack is human emotion." There are so many women around you, but none of them are sincere to you. It's pitiful that you have supreme power, but you lose the love you should have. ”

Jiang Wanran's words drilled deep into Chu Luo's eardrums like a pinprick in the eye, and the pain in his eyes spread clearly and acutely, it was really a bone-crushing pain.

At this moment, Chu Luo suddenly remembered Li Shushen who was lingering on the sickbed, and she had always been sincere from beginning to end. But love is such a thing, how can it be so happy without two loves?

He is thirty-two years old this year, and before he knows it, he has been the emperor for eleven years.

In the past eleven years, there have been too many changes for him.

Twenty-one-year-old Chu Luo, with mountains and rivers in his heart, never thought that he would ascend to the main hall. And the thirty-two-year-old Chu Luo can no longer do without the glory brought to him by this throne.

Since ancient times, those who occupy high positions must be lonely in their hearts. Come to think of it, he hasn't felt a little warmth in many years.

Chu Luo's eyes contained thin tears, he stood up, didn't want to say more to her, only said slowly, "You can do it yourself." ”

Jiang Wanran saw that her words had completely stimulated Chu Luo, and a happy smile appeared on her face. She's going to die, and inevitably, she can't escape it. But she watched the man in front of her who had been with her for ten years in pain, and her heart was also happy.

Her youth, her love, and even her life are buried deep in this palace.

A graceful smile condensed at the corner of her mouth, but there was a slight light in her eyes, and she slowly spoke, "Your Majesty, Yingxiang may not have told you one thing yet." ”

The Emperor looked back, "What? ”

Wanran smiled sadly, and immediately turned the cold tears in her eyes into self-contained calmness, "Your child, the child who is only four months old, was killed by me. ”

When the emperor heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her hand, and said angrily, "What did you just say? ”

"Our child died at my hands, and I didn't want him anymore, so I drank the abortion pill."

Before the words fell, Chu Luo's heart was already filled with indescribable grief, that kind of pain gradually spread from the atrium, and even his voice trembled like a collapse, "The child is not wrong, how can you ......"

"Because that's your child." Wanran raised her head suddenly, and her eyes flashed with hatred, "You made it impossible for me to be with Xiao Yu, so I will definitely not keep your child." ”

In an instant, a dull pain filled Chu Luo's entire heart.

At this time, he was no longer angry, heavy, all pain.

Finally, without saying a word, he let go of Jiang Wanran's hand and walked outside step by step, heavy and slowly.

Suddenly, he heard the sound of tiles breaking behind him, and before he could turn around, Cheng Dehai had already rushed forward, grabbed Jiang Wanran's shoulders tightly, and snatched the tiles from her hand.

Chu Luo quietly looked at the bloodstained rubble, and sighed and said, "Are you going to die?" ”

Wanran's heart twitched slightly, and she unconsciously contained a little sadness, "I don't want to live anymore for a long time, don't you trap me in this place, don't you also let me die?" After that, she suddenly raised her head, with a wave of emotion and emotion in her eyes, "I have only one request, I know that Xiao Yu can't escape death, but can I beg you to exchange my life for his life?" ”

Chu Luo frowned tightly, "Your life is no longer worth mentioning. ”

"But Xiao Yu didn't do anything wrong, after entering the palace, he kept persuading me to abide by my duty, but I couldn't let go, so I ......"

"Don't talk about it." Chu Luo interrupted her coldly and said abruptly, "I have already ordered that Xiao Yu fornicated with the concubine, and the crime is unforgivable." Tomorrow will be executed. ”

As soon as she heard the word "Ling Chi", Jiang Wanran suddenly lost all her strength, and the whole person fell to the ground, unable to return to her senses for a long time.

Although she had long thought that Xiao Yu would not survive, she never expected that it would be Ling Chi. How much the emperor hates him, he has to cut it with a thousand knives to get rid of his hatred. Or perhaps, he didn't hate Xiao Yu, what he hated was just that he had lost the majesty of the emperor.

"Can you ask the emperor, open your grace, please......"

Jiang Wanran lay at his feet, pleading in a low voice, but Chu Luo remained silent, as if he hadn't heard. Cheng Dehai couldn't see it, so he hurriedly pulled Jiang Wanran aside, lowered his voice and persuaded, "You can save your energy, you can't save yourself, and you still want to save others......"

Jiang Wanran was crying, trembling all over, and a chill was involuntarily forced on her body.

She watched as everyone slowly left her side, taking away all the tools she could use to hang herself, and just like that, once again threw her into the bottomless Chen Yuan.
