One hundred and sixty-six, bitter entanglement
Tang was stunned as if she had gradually fallen into the fog, she sorted out her thoughts there, and it took a long time to clear the layers of fog and come out.
She shook her head and said to Jian Huaizhen, "I don't have anything to say to my master and Uncle Ji and Uncle Jiang, thank you, Aunt Princess." ”
Jian Huaizhen nodded and said, "Okay, then you can go back first!" ”
So, Jian Huaizhen gave Zero a look, and Zero took her back first.
After Jian Huaizhen took Tang Jingran away, Jian Huaizhen sighed there for a long time, she felt that Tang Jingran must have been stimulated by something, and she was overstimulated to become what she is now, or the inconvenience is that she has suffered a lot of blows in the past few days, so this situation has appeared in her spirit.
Jian Huaizhen only felt very sighing, after she left the Forbidden City, she went straight to Huaiming Garden.
Jian Huaizhen hadn't come to Huaiming Garden for several days, and Jiang Shaoheng, Fang Xiao, Ji Qihan and others missed her very much.
But seeing her coming, Jiang Shaoheng hurriedly stepped forward, welcomed her in, and said to her: "Sister princess, has there been something big in the palace recently, why haven't you been here for so long?" ”
Jian Huaizhen looked worried, raised his head and said solemnly to Jiang Shaoheng: "Brother Jiang, what you said is right, there are indeed a lot of things going on in the palace, so I came this time to discuss with you." ”
"Yo, what the hell is going on?"
Jiang Shaoheng saw that what she said was very serious, as if something big had happened, and hurriedly let her in.
After Jian Huaizhen came in, he sighed and said, "This matter has nothing to do with others, but it has something to do with shock." ”
"Ah, shocked, shocked, what's wrong?" Fang Xiao asked anxiously.
Tang Jingran was Fang Xiao's apprentice, and Fang Yu treated her the best on weekdays, so he was most concerned about Tang Jingran's affairs.
Jian Huaizhen sighed helplessly, and told them everything that had happened in the palace in the last few days, and after finishing speaking, Jian Huaizhen couldn't help but sigh and said: "In fact, this matter is said to be my fault, it is I who didn't look at the shock, and it is she who has changed so much." ”
Jian Huaizhen's eyes had a faint watery look, and in Jiang Shaoheng's eyes, Jiang Shaoheng couldn't help but feel distressed.
Jiang Shaoheng pulled Jian Huaizhen to sit down and said to her: "Princess, these things are not something you can control, you don't blame yourself too much, as for the shocking matter, let's slowly find a way to solve it." ”
Jian Huaizhen only felt a little aggrieved in her heart, for so many years, she has supported several generations of emperors, she has done her best to help the emperor govern the country, she has tried her best to take care of the affairs in the harem, but she herself has always been unsatisfactory.
So when Jian Huaizhen said these warm words, she felt very moved, but she has always been a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, and she has not shown anything unusual because of this.
She said to Jiang Shaoheng: "I've been worried about shock, I don't know why she became the way she is now, Brother Ji, Brother Jiang, Brother Fang, what do you say about this?" ”
Jiang Shaoheng and Ji Qihan glanced at each other, and the two of them thought of one thing in unison.
Jiang Shaoheng looked at Jian Huaizhen, and he said to Jian Huaizhen in an inquiring tone: "Sister Princess, do you remember an incident that happened in the palace at the beginning?" ”
"What's the matter?" Jian Huaizhen asked.
Jiang Shaoheng said slowly: "I remember when you came to Huaiming Garden, you said that someone was performing witchcraft in the palace, I don't know if you remember?" ”
"Witchcraft!" The four big characters of the witch Gu technique suddenly slashed at Jian Huaizhen's heart like an ice blade, and she was out of breath in panic for a long time, and then asked Jiang Shaoheng: "Brother Jiang, are you saying that the reason why Shocking Ran has become the way she is now is because someone used witchcraft on her?" ”
"I think that's what it is, you want to be surprised that you are a smart and clever person, why did you suddenly become like this? Even though she was deeply hit, with her personality, she would never become what she was now, and the only explanation was the mysterious witchcraft. ”
After Jian Huaizhen listened, he only felt layers of anger surging in his heart.
Her eyes were like a sharp blade, and she said firmly: "Could it be that Wan Zhen'er made this matter again?" ”
"Whether Wan Zhen'er did it or not, we don't know, the only thing we can be sure of is that if this situation occurs, it must have been tricked by witchcraft."
Ji Kai said with a chill: "Do you remember the transverse flute? Later, he also practiced the art of witchcraft, so I knew a lot about the art of witchcraft. ”
Ji Kaihan said with palpitations, he generally said, his mind ran back to many years ago, and ran back to the beautiful woman named Jing Hengdi, but soon he was pulled back to reality.
Jian Huaizhen nodded and said: "You say so, I think of one thing, before, Wan Zhen'er used witchcraft to confuse the emperor in the palace, and now, Shocking Stain has also become delirious, there is only one possibility, it is because of Wan Zhen'er's witchcraft technique, but why did Wan Zhen'er use witchcraft on Shock?" ”
Jian Huaizhen thought about it, but she still couldn't figure it out, logically speaking, Wan Zhen'er originally hoped to be favored by the emperor, so she should have obtained Jian Huaizhen's hair and asked Shi Liqing to help her use witchcraft to confuse the emperor.
But instead of doing this, she also helped Tang Jingran get the emperor's favor, what is the reason for this?
Jian Huaizhen couldn't figure it out after thinking about it, and Fang Xiao, Jiang Shaoheng, Ji Qihan and others couldn't figure out what the reason was.
I talked about it for a long time, and before I knew it, it was a little late, and I didn't know when it became gloomy, and there was an inky cloud floating in the sky.
Jiang Shaoheng said to Jiang Shaoheng: "Princess, you might as well stay in Huaiming Garden tonight, looking at it like this, it's going to rain." ”
Jian Huaizhen saw that Jiang Shaoheng was courteous and wanted to agree, but she always remembered Tang Jingran's comfort in her heart, so she shook her head and said: "When I come back to Huaiming Yuan in a few days, I have to go to the palace first, I want to find out if Wan Zhen'er used witchcraft on Shock, so she made Shocking Ran what it is now." ”
After Jian Huaizhen finished speaking, he was about to stand up and leave, but who knew that Ji Qihan stopped her and said to her: "Princess, you don't have to worry first, if you really practiced the witchcraft of Shock, then things will be much easier, I am afraid that this witchcraft is not performed by Wan Zhen'er, but by the emperor." ”
"It's the emperor, how can the emperor understand this?" When Jian Huaizhen said these words, he felt a little empty in his heart, because the current emperor is no longer the wise and martial emperor he used to be, he now has his own selfishness, unscrupulous means to achieve his goals, and often does some despicable things.
Therefore, if this witchcraft is performed by him, it is not impossible.
Ji Qihan pulled Jian Huaizhen to sit down beside him, and said to her in a serious tone: "Princess, it doesn't matter who performed the witchcraft as for it, the most important thing is that if the witchcraft is broken, then the person who performs the witchcraft will bleed to death from seven holes." ”
"What did you say?" After Jian Huaizhen listened, the whole person jumped up from the chair at that time.
She has rarely been so excited, she has always been a person who is not very happy and angry, but Ji Xianhan's words really shocked her.
Because she didn't think in her heart, this matter was done by the emperor, if it was really the emperor who performed the witchcraft on Tang Jingran, then if she helped Tang Jingran break the witchcraft technique, in the end, the witchcraft would backfire, and the person who was going to die would be the emperor.
Yes, Ji Kaihan said firmly, what I said is true, you also know about the transverse flute, and the transverse flute has also taken a break from practicing this witchcraft technique, so I know this witchcraft very well.
Jiang Shaoheng didn't know that the witchcraft was so powerful, and all his opinions on the witchcraft were seen from books, so after hearing Ji Qihan say this, he was also slightly stunned.
And Fang Xiao was even more nervous, and the green tendons on his hands burst out, he looked at Ji Qihan, as if asking Ji Qihan, and as if he was asking himself, and said, "Can you only let Shocking Ran stay in this witchcraft and have no way to help her untie it?" ”
Ji Kaihan shook his head with a wry smile, and said: "So far, I don't know how to lift the witchcraft technique, if the princess sister can ruthlessly watch the emperor being eaten and killed, there is nothing to worry about, but if the princess sister doesn't want to watch the emperor be killed by the backlash, then this matter may take a lot of time." ”
Jian Huaizhen's face was pale, as white as a white cloud in the sky, and she stood there without saying a word.
Ji Qihan, Fang Xiao and Jiang Shaoheng, the three of them all looked at her quietly, in fact, Jian Huaizhen already had an idea in her heart.
Although the emperor has become unkind and unrighteous now, he is still the king of a country, and he is a wise and martial emperor to his subjects in the world.
But do you have to watch Tang be shocked by the witchcraft of his whole life, and he doesn't know who he really is for the rest of his life?
In her heart, it was like two people were fighting fiercely, and finally reason prevailed over emotion.
She said to Jiang Shaoheng, Fang Xiao and Ji Qihan fixedly: "I'm sorry, I think if I really have to sacrifice one, I will choose to sacrifice Shock, because even if I don't touch her witchcraft, she won't die, but the emperor is different, if the Shocking Witchcraft is lifted, the Witchcraft will backfire, and the emperor's life will be gone." ”
"Princess, sister, how can you be so selfish, I used to misjudge you." Fang Xiao was furious when he heard this.
Fang Yan is also a person who is not moody on weekdays, and he has a deep affection for Jian Huaizhen, and he is reluctant to say a word to Jian Huaizhen on weekdays.
But when he heard Jian Huaizhen say this, he still couldn't help but blame her.
Because Tang Jingran was like his own daughter to him, although in the past, Tang Jingran did a lot of wayward things without his consent, which made him very sad.
However, when things come, he will still stand on Tang's side without hesitation.
Jian Huaizhen glanced at Fang Xiao apologetically, and she said to him in a low voice: "Brother Fang, I'm sorry, it's me who is not good, it's me who is selfish, but the emperor is still the emperor of the country, if the emperor has any three longs and two shortcomings, then the world will be in chaos, and it will be the people of the world who will suffer at that time, the emperor has done so many wrong things before, why I didn't punish him, it's all because I don't want to watch the subjects of the world suffer." ”
"But is it up to the shock to bear the pain? If it weren't for the emperor who used witchcraft on Shock, then how could Shocking Stain become so delirious as he is now, this is the cause of the emperor's planting, of course, he has to bear the result. ”
Fang Yu said with some righteous indignation, Fang Yu didn't have a good impression of the people of the Zhu family's royal family.
After Jian Huaizhen listened to him, he didn't speak for a long time.
Indeed, Fang Yu is right, since this evil was created by the emperor, because it was planted by the emperor, then of course the consequences must be borne by the emperor, if the emperor does not bear it, then should this innocent person be borne?
Jian Huaizhen sat there, not knowing what to say for a while, her eyes were empty and long-term, as if she could never see the camera.
Jiang Shaoheng only felt a little distressed when he saw her like this, he stepped forward and said softly to Fang Xiao: "Brother Fang Xiao, don't blame the princess sister, the princess sister is still the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty, she has to put the community first, she still has the people of the world in her heart, she is different from us." ”
Fang Yu heard Jiang Shaoheng say this, and felt that he had indeed had too much attitude just now, so he said to Jian Huaizhen warmly: "I'm sorry, I was too impulsive just now." ”
Jian Huaizhen shook her head, Jian Huaizhen's eyes had a deep look of despair for a while, she looked at Jiang Shaoheng, Ji Qihan and Fang Xiao, and it took a long time to spit out a sentence, she said: "Brother Jiang, Brother Ji, Brother Fang, you teach me, what should I do?" ”
"Teach me what I should do?" This sentence was like a hammer, hitting the hearts of the three people hard.
Jian Huaizhen was in the high position of the eldest princess, what should she do at this moment? Should she help the emperor, or should she watch the horror suffer? What would he do if he stood in the position that Jian Huaizhen was?
At the end, Fang Xiao flicked his sleeves, sat down, and said to Jian Huaizhen: "Princess, I'm sorry, I spoke too seriously just now, I think what you said is also reasonable, after all, if you change the emperor again, it will definitely cause riots in the world, changes in the courtiers, and it will be the people of the world who will suffer at that time, and since she chose this road by herself, then she will bear it without hesitation." ”
When Jian Huaizhen heard Fang Xiao say this, his heart was moved, but there was even more endless pain mixed with it.
She raised her head and looked at Jiang Shaoheng, and said to Jiang Shaoheng as if asking for help: "Brother Jiang, you have read a lot of books about witchcraft before, is there no other way in the book?" ”
Jiang Shaoheng was speechless for a while, not knowing how to say it, and Jian Huaizhen looked at Ji Xianhan again, Ji Xianhan stood there, pondering for a long time without speaking.
After a long time, a long time, he said: "It seems that I am going to go to Miaojiang in person." ”
"What, you want to go to Miaojiang, but if you go to Miaojiang, it is really dangerous to go, and the same people of the transverse flute will definitely not let you go?" Jiang Shaoheng said to him on the side.
Ji Qihan smiled bitterly and said, "What is the way to do it now? Shocking is also my nephew, can I just watch her suffer and ignore it? What's more, Hengdi died because of witchcraft in the first place, should I watch Shocking Ran repeat her old path? ”
When Ji Kaihan said these words, there was a deep sadness in his eyes, and his sadness spread slowly like a flood, making everyone's hearts feel wet.
Jian Huaizhen thought about it, and then said to him: "Okay, if Brother Ji wants to go to Miaojiang for a trip, I will compensate you, right?" ”
Jiang Shaoheng shook the folding fan on the side and said: "Since Ai Han and the princess and sister are planning to go, then Brother Fang and I are definitely not willing to be left behind, in this case, let's go to Miao Jiang together, I have walked through a lot of famous mountains and rivers in my life, but Miao Jiang has not been there yet." ”
Jiang Shaoheng acted relaxed when he spoke, he did this just to hope that Jian Huaizhen and Fang Xiao and the others would not be heavy-hearted.
Jian Huaizhen thought for a while and said, "Okay, since that's the case, without further ado, let's leave tomorrow, I'll go back to the palace now to explain things clearly, so that Ling Luo can be optimistic and shocked, if there is anything, she can find someone to ask for help." ”
Everyone agreed, so Jian Huaizhen went straight to the Forbidden City.
After Jian Huaizhen returned to Wan'an Palace, he ordered someone to call Lingluo over, and Lingluo heard that Jian Huaizhen had come back from Huaiming Garden, and couldn't wait to come to find her.
When she saw Jian Huaizhen, she hurriedly saluted and asked, "Princess, you went to Huaiming Garden today, do you know what caused the frightened girl to become like this?" Is there any way to cure her? What can a slave do? ”
Scattered asked so many questions in a row, and Jian Huaizhen didn't know how to answer.
She pointed to Scattered and said, "You girl asks so many questions, how can I answer you for a while?" Yes, I did go to Huaiming Garden today, and I know why I became like this, so listen to me slowly. ”
Jian Huaizhen told Zero that Tang was shocked by the poison of witch Gu to Zero, and after Zero listened to it, she only listened to it staggeringly, and she asked Jian Huaizhen for a while: "Is what you said true, Princess?" Is there really such a strange poison in the world? ”
Jian Huaizhen nodded and said: "That's true, I didn't expect it from this palace before, but at that time, Wan Zhen'er poisoned the emperor with witch Gu, which once made the emperor infatuated with her, and now she has become so delirious, naturally because of the poison of witchcraft, and in the past, the woman Jing Hengdi, whom Brother Ji liked, has also been victimized by witchcraft, and the palace will soon go to Miaojiang, in these days, you must be optimistic about the shock, if something happens to her, You must go to the Empress Dowager Qian for help. ”
Hearing Jian Huaizhen say this, it took a long time to react, waved his hand to Jian Huaizhen, and said: "Princess, you can't go to Miaojiang no matter what, you have to go to Miaojiang, no one in this harem can be the master, won't it become Wan Zhen'er's world?" Besides, if the emperor wants to do anything to Concubine Shu again, then we, who are slaves, can't stop him, and Empress Dowager Qian may not be willing to listen to the emperor's persuasion. ”
When Jian Huaizhen heard this, she was not worried in her heart, but she still said very resolutely: "If this palace does not go to Miao Jiang with Brother Jiang and them to find a way to cure the shock, then the shocking will become what it is now." ”
"So, why don't you find out the person who did the witchcraft, as long as you can find that person, you will definitely be able to contact the witchcraft poison for the frightened girl at that time."
Jian Huaizhen shook his head and said, "In fact, it's not as simple as you think, this palace has also raised this question, but Brother Ji said that if the poison of the witch Gu comes into contact, the person who is poisoned by the witch Gu will be counterattacked, and he will bleed to death through seven holes." ”
"Does the princess think that the poison of witchcraft is, yes, yes?"
