Chapter 69: Into the Heavenly Prison
Unless it was Beiliuyun who revealed the news when he got the lily of the valley powder.
The fish on the side have been paying more and more attention to Chu Luoyi recently, and this attention has found that her whereabouts are uncertain and elusive.
And at this moment, in the Bibo Pavilion.
Beiliuyun leaned on a delicate soft couch, carved with reliefs of irises, bright Shu brocade dazzling and luxurious, on the side of the low table placed delicate fruits and pastries, a pot of plum wine exuded a faint aroma of wine.
The sun is slightly drunk, even if there is a gazebo to block it, but still a few strands of nostalgia sprinkled on the man's body, the man holds his head in one hand, his eyes are slightly closed, the soft hair passes through his fingers, scattered, the pale skin is a little unreal in the sun, the thin lips are slightly hooked, and from a distance it looks like a fairy who has fallen into the mortal dust, an indescribable charm.
On the ground outside the pavilion, Zhao Meiren was kneeling on the ground and was concentrating on embroidery, and her forehead was already covered with a thin layer of sweat.
Zhao Meiren looked at the peony that had just been completed in her hand, and then looked up at the cool sun overhead, only to feel that under this dazzling sunlight, her eyes were almost blind.
Looking up at Beiliuyun, who was pretending to sleep, he stopped talking, didn't dare to speak, and finally lowered his head and continued to move in his hands.
Zhao Meiren comforted herself, as long as she finished embroidering this embroidery picture, she would be able to prove that what she said was true, and Concubine Rou's was fake, and at that time, she would be able to escape death!
Thinking of this, Zhao Meiren bit her lip, took the slender needle in her hand, and quickly embroidered it again.
Beiliuyun raised his eyes slightly, glanced at Zhao Meiren who was kneeling on the ground, a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and pretended to sleep again.
Time passed little by little, Zhao Meiren only felt that she was pierced by the sun, everything she saw was white, and she couldn't see anything really, and because it was too dazzling, her tears always kept coming.
Zhao closed his eyes, gasped heavily, and buried himself in embroidery again.
The sky darkens little by little, when the moon hangs over the willow tops.
With the help of the lights in the distance, Zhao Meiren still couldn't see anything, looking at Beiliuyun, who was still pretending to sleep, and finally couldn't help but speak: "Your Highness the Nine.. It's getting dark, and I can't see anything..."
Beiliuyun woke up slowly, and said to the guards beside him: "Why are you so blind, why don't you hurry up and get a candle lamp." ”
Zhao Meiren wanted to speak and stopped, and the guards quickly set up a table in front of Zhao Meiren, on which a candle was lit.
Beiliuyun said: "I hope that Zhao Meiren will not blame this palace, after all, you once said that this embroidery was made by you after staying up for a few days and nights, if it is late today, this palace will never dare to be in the same room with you, so I can only grieve you to continue here." ”
Zhao Meiren nodded, her heart continued to be angry, but she never dared to attack, every time the man's glass-colored eyes looked at her, she felt cold to the bone, and her body was uncomfortable.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Meiren spoke: "Your Highness the Nine, I haven't eaten for a long time, and I'm really hungry, I don't know if I can send someone to send some food..."
"It's the palace that is negligent, Grandpa Su... Send someone to the imperial dining room to bring some meals to Zhao Meiren. ”
"Huh..."
Before Gonggong Su's words were finished, I saw Zhao Meiren continue: "I don't know if His Royal Highness the Ninth can invite a girl named Luo Yi to come, I have been eating what she has made these days." ”
Beiliuyun didn't break it, and turned his head to Su Gong beside him and said: "Go to the imperial dining room to find Luo Yi to come over, just say that Zhao Meiren has never eaten, let her come and serve." ”
Su Gongcheng was about to leave, but a man's voice came from behind him: "Oh, by the way, the palace has never eaten, let her send it together." ”
"Minions understand."
Zhao Meiren breathed a sigh of relief, Luo Yi must have a way to save her... Even Concubine Rou has suffered at her hands, she must have a way...
Beiliuyun took in Zhao Meiren's expression, and a sneer flashed in her narrow eyes.
Chu Luoyi put the meal in the food box, Father-in-law Su helped her carry a food box, and she took another food box, and followed Father-in-law Su all the way to Bibo Pavilion.
When I arrived at Bibo Pavilion, I saw Zhao Meiren kneeling on the ground and lighting a candle from a distance, her expression remained unchanged, and she walked over.
"Mother, it's time to eat." Chu Luoyi placed the meals in the food box on the table one by one.
When Zhao Meiren heard her voice, she was overjoyed, and grabbed her hand tightly and said, "Luo Yi.. Help me.. You must have a way, don't you..."
Chu Luoyi looked at the delicate jade hand that was holding him, and pushed it down with a chuckle.
Zhao Meiren was stunned for a moment, looked at the indifferent smile on the cheeks of the woman in front of her, and said in a daze: "Luo Yi.. You..."
"It's time for the mother." Chu Luoyi said in a deep voice, and then prepared to get up.
I didn't want Zhao Meiren to grab Chu Luoyi's hand again, and said with begging eyes: "Luoyi.. Think of a way.. Help me.. I know you're going to have a way..."
Chu Luoyi looked at Zhao Meiren who was begging in front of her, lowered her head and whispered in Zhao Meiren's ear: "Niangniang doesn't want to know how the lily of the valley powder can be found in the Xitang Palace?" ”
Zhao Meiren was stunned there, looking at the woman in front of her with shocked eyes, and then anger rose in her eyes: "It's you... It was you who put it in my room. Right.. And the embroidery thread you gave me... You who eats inside and out... I'm going to kill you..!"
As soon as the words fell, Zhao Meiren rushed at Chu Luoyi, Chu Luoyi stood still, letting the crazy woman flutter on her body, looking at the crazy woman in front of her, her eyes were full of indifference.
She has never been a good person, she will do whatever it takes to get what she wants, if she wins, she will trample on the dignity and life of the enemy at all costs, trample on it fiercely, and if she loses, she will bear all the cruel torture and contempt of the spider without saying a word.
She will be retribution, ruthless, this is her.
Beiliuyun frowned, and the guards on the side quickly pulled Zhao Meiren away, Zhao Meiren was embarrassed, her gorgeous hair bun was messy, and she looked at the woman in front of her with angry eyes, eager to kill her as soon as possible.
"Your Highness the Nine. She's the murderer.. She's the one who wants to murder the queen...!" Zhao Meiren said to Beiliuyun excitedly.
Beiliuyun spoke: "Let's listen carefully."
"She gave me the embroidery thread for the embroidered picture, and she has been in and out of my room in the past few days, and she also put the lily of the valley powder in my room..."
"The embroidery thread is made by the Shanggong Bureau, she is not your maid, why do you accept it gladly when she takes the embroidery thread for you? Besides, how can she, a palace maid in the imperial dining room, easily enter and exit your room? Beiliuyun said lightly, and Gonggong Su put the meal in the food box on the table.
Chu Luoyi stood aside, lowering his eyes and listening to Zhao Meiren's testimony.
"That day. That day, Concubine Rou sent me a golden hairpin..."Zhao Meiren's voice became smaller and quieter as she spoke, because she found that no one knew about the fact that Concubine Rou sent her a golden hairpin, and if she asked Concubine Rou, Concubine Rou would definitely not admit it.
But she had clearly said before that this golden hairpin was made by her father, if that was the case, then how could Chu Luoyi have any contact with her...
Isn't this preface and afterword all contradictory, Zhao Meiren is really anxious to cry at the moment, and there are words of suffering.
Beiliuyun soothed: "Zhao Meiren, don't be anxious, this palace will find out the truth." ”
Zhao Meiren nodded, picked up the chopsticks and ate something without knowing anything.
Beiliuyun said to Chu Luoyi: "You come to serve the palace for dinner." ”
Chu Luoyi walked into the Bibo Pavilion with lowered eyes, and stood on the side of Beiliuyun to prepare vegetables for him.
Bei Liuyun raised his eyes to look at the woman beside him, and when he saw that she still refused to look at him, he was annoyed: "Look at me." ”
Chu Luoyi just scooped a bowl of soup and put it aside as if she hadn't heard it, Beiliuyun pinched her wrist and said coldly, "Why don't you look at me?" ”
Zhao Meiren was coming up with an excuse at this time: "Your Highness the Nine. The slave remembered."
Beiliuyun let go of her hand and looked at Zhao Meidao: "Let's take a look." ”
At the moment of danger, Zhao Meiren also made up a reluctant reason: "That day, I was enjoying the flowers on the path by the imperial garden, kicked a stone, and almost fell, and it happened that Luo Yi passed by, and kindly helped me up and sent me back to the West Hall, so I am grateful to her and invited her to come and go often, and I have been in contact since then."
Beiliuyun bowed slightly, which made Zhao Meiren's eyes rise with a glimmer of hope, and continued: "Now that I think about it, since then, she has been in contact with me purposefully... What a shameless bitch.."
Beiliuyun took a sip of tea, and his lips and teeth were fragrant: "Zhao Meiren's words are also reasonable, it seems that this matter really needs to be investigated." ”
Zhao Meiren's eyes flashed with a bright light, and she glared at Chu Luoyi viciously, and then looked at the embroidery that had just been partially completed, and then lowered her head and ate something.
When the cup of tea was exhausted, Chu Luoyi picked up the teapot and poured it for the man again.
The man looked at the woman's plain white fingers and said faintly: "Luo Luo.. You say, should this palace listen to Zhao Meiren? ”
Chu Luoyi's fingers trembled slightly, but not a drop of tea was spilled.
"The slave doesn't know."
"Really? I don't know..."Beiliuyun's voice became extremely faint, and his eyes were full of self-deprecation.
"Come on, Chu Luoyi participated in the poisoning of the queen and went to the prison.." The man's tone was sharp for a moment.
Chu Luoyi finally raised his eyes and stared at the man in front of him.
Looking at those cold eyes, Beiliuyun only felt a sudden pain in her heart, it turned out that this was the only way she was willing to look at him... Hehe... A faint smell of blood spread from the man's mouth.
After Chu Luoyi was taken down, Beiliuyun sat heavily on the chair, his mind was full of those cold eyes, caressing his chest, and he only felt that the pain made him want to cry.
Luo Luo, since you want to go to Concubine Rou so much, I'll help you go.
