Chapter 518: Prison
The bed board in the prison was always hard and cold, she took off her shoes and sat on the bed, the cold iron wall behind her back, she reached out and hugged her knees, and couldn't help but think of the first time she met King Jin, when she was only fifteen years old, at the same age, she obeyed the wishes of her parents and married this much-loved prince.
Although she has expectations, she has never hoped for love, and she also knows that she has suffered unparalleled glory and wealth since she was a child, and naturally she has to pay the price for it.
On the wedding banquet full of high halls, she worshipped heaven and earth with him calmly, she was sent into the new house, he stayed to greet the guests, and it was very late at night, and the maid of the Jin Wangfu brought a plate of pastries.
"Princess, the princess said that he would come later, please eat something first." She stirred her sleeves, a little surprised, on the wedding day, she was not allowed to lift her hijab and not eat secretly, this is the rule, did he even call the maid to persuade her to eat?
Maybe it was just a method he used to use to buy people's hearts, but she took it seriously and moved her heart.
He came with the smell of wine all over his body, and after being picked open by Yu Ruyi, what she saw was a polite smiling face, and her tight string was finally broken, "Have you eaten it?" ”
She nodded, looking at him with some embarrassment.
"That's good." His eyebrows were crooked, and her heart palpitated.
She originally thought that he would marry her because he liked her, and if a person like him didn't want to, who could force him.
At that time, there were no other side concubines in the palace of the King of Jin, not even concubines, he asked people to send jewelry every once in a while, she took them one by one, thinking that it was because he had her in his heart, because he appreciated his intelligence, she knew the ambition in his heart, and also wanted to be the most qualified person to stand by his side, she tried to get close to the center of his power, and in the end she failed.
It wasn't until later that he married another woman, the daughter of the same high-ranking official, although she was a side concubine, but her status in the palace was comparable to her, she had always been a smart person, and knew that embarrassment of the side concubine could not get any benefit from him, so that she accepted the concubines generously in the future, and was willing to watch them fight like a peacemaker.
One day he would find out that she was no worse than any of his staff.
So on that day, when King Jin asked her to go to the princess's mansion to bring the princess out of Hades, she seemed to see the opportunity she had been longing for for a long time, and she couldn't wait to complete such a task for him, so that he would know that he was qualified to stand side by side with him.
But in the end, she still paid for her quick success, but she never regretted it, even if she failed, she was willing to give everything for him.
Now because of the matter of the Hades Princess, Nanfeng wants to use this to pry her mouth open, she can't help but sneer, how is that possible, if it really comes to that day, she would rather bear the charge of being a spy and will definitely exonerate him.
As Nan Zheng said, this may be a ridiculous humble love, if there is no warmth from his inquiry on the wedding day, if there is no care from him after marriage, she may also be like before marriage, this marriage is regarded as a transaction, she does her duty as a princess, he has nothing to do with her life and death.
However, what's the use of talking about these now, two people, whoever moves first will lose, King Jin has never lost in his life, and the same is true for her.
Even if he can't be a woman who can stand by his side and die for him, he will definitely not forget himself.
She never expected King Jin to pity her because of this matter, when she failed to return to the palace to greet her was endless scolding and resentment, but she was full of self-blame, it was she who was too conceited to mess up this matter, and he should be angry.
She had never hated him.
Even if like Nan Zheng said, who doesn't love him, he only loves himself, if she dies to save him, whether she feels guilty or moved, then at least he will remember her for the rest of his life, not a dispensable ornament in the Jin Palace.
In the following days, Nanfeng and Nan Zheng did not appear, and it was inconvenient for them to torture her, but other punishments always followed, or changing the quilt in prison, and in the cold winter night, she held her body and shivered, or she endured it all by not giving her water and food all day.
She never imagined that she would have such a resilient day.
Nanfeng saw that she was determined to take the blame herself, she was angry and helpless, I am afraid that the road of Princess Jin will be difficult to dig up, when Yun Jinglan asked her about the progress, Nan Zheng just shook her head, "I really didn't expect Princess Jin to be so stubborn, so what kind of ecstasy soup did King Jin give her, he has a lot of side concubines and concubines in the palace, and Princess Jin is still so desperate for him?" ”
What King Jin saw was only his arrogance, but he was able to accumulate so much power at a young age, and he didn't just rely on his identity as King Jin, but for the people he wanted to woo, King Jin was very patient and very good at working hard.
The same is true for Princess Jin, not to mention Princess Jin, isn't Nanmu deeply affected? Yun Jinglan lowered his head and fell into deep thought, if this Jin princess really bears the charge alone, in order to give Tianyue an explanation, Emperor Nanxun will not take the life of the little princess in his eyes.
Could it be that Princess Jin doesn't know about these?
"Can you show me there?"
"Absolutely." This matter was handed over to Nanfeng by Emperor Nanxun, and he was naturally responsible for it, and it was not a problem to open his mouth and let the clouds go into the criminal department.
led her to the prison of the Criminal Department, and when she saw Princess Jin again, this person no longer had the vigor and elegance of the day, but in just three or two days, she is now a lot haggard, and she has lost her brocade clothes, jewelry and jade hairpins, and there seems to be no difference from those ordinary people outside.
Yun Jinglan stood outside the prison door, and the person who was originally sitting on the bed raised his head to look at her, his eyes flashed with inspiration, she didn't believe that Princess Jin was the kind of person who was stupid enough to see her situation clearly.
On the contrary, this is a smart person, and she is right to see people.
Turning her head and glancing at Nan Zheng, she understood, beckoned the jailer to open the door, Yun Jinglan followed her into the door, Princess Jin still looked at her without saying a word, she and her, each gave everything for the person she loved, maybe in Nan Zheng's eyes, she was not worth it, but she herself just asked for no regrets.
"Why bother?" Yun Jinglan hugged her chest and looked like she was watching a good show, Princess Jin and her were only one side, simply speaking, her first impression of this Princess Jin was not bad, as for the later things.
