503 Death to atonement for sin
Whenever the founding of the country, or the new emperor ascends the throne, even if there is no chaos, he must make a mess to kill a hundred people, Yuwen Xuanzheng just hit this pass, and he belongs to the faction of the king of Qingning, so he will be chased and beaten, and the courtiers can also use this to express their loyalty to the new emperor and break with the rebels.
Ministers jointly signed ...... couldn't help but remind her of the incident of poisoning the imperial heir. At that time, it was they who teamed up to save her. At that time, although they had a grudge against each other, they were at the same starting point, and now......
Xuan Cang, did you ask Xiao Xuzi to tell me about this on purpose? Do you want me to intercede for Xuan Zheng? But do my words have any effect? If it works, how can you send him to the Zongren Mansion that day? But if it does...... I am just a woman, and she actually refutes the ministers, how does this make them think? What does this make the world think? Do you want to give me a chance to "make meritorious contributions", or do you want to push me to a higher level?
However, for the sake of Xuan Zheng, this matter is because of me, no matter what, I have to save him!
Xuan Cang, this is the first time, you put me in a dilemma, but I have to do it?
She stepped up the steps, and as soon as she entered, the snow-colored figure pierced coldly into her eyes.
She bowed deeply to the ground and made a dignified salute: "I implore the emperor to open up to His Royal Highness." ”
There are no transitions, no empty words, straight to the point, and then they just bow to the ground and listen quietly.
The sound of kowtowing outside the door seemed to be the most monotonous accompaniment, stirring the silence of the room.
Yuwen Xuancang pinched the fold, looked at her for a moment, and seemed to say to himself: "You 'implore' me, in what capacity?" ”
"The concubine of King Yilie, the palace maid of Xueyang Palace, the maid of the former emperor, the former Wupin Yiren, the current royal sister-in-law of His Royal Highness, and the princess of King Qingning...... Come and beg the emperor. ”
Long......
"But what does this have to do with me?"
A "me", a "me" he used for the first time in front of her, finally separated the two of them.
At this moment, they are no longer former lovers with too many tacit intentions, nor are they comrades-in-arms who fight side by side, but ...... Monarchy. The king wants the minister to die, and the minister ...... Have to......
Su Jinling stared at the patterns on the red velvet brocade carpet blurred in front of her: "The concubine once received the emperor's favor, but she never repaid it. If the emperor can let go of His Royal Highness, the concubines ...... Let it fall. ”
It seemed that something was broken, and then the person behind the dragon case said angrily: "Are you threatening me? ”
"How is a concubine a threat? Concubinage is atonement. The concubines often thought about the scene when they first entered the palace, it was spring, and everything was the way it began. But because it's the beginning, it's the hardest because you don't know which direction to go and what you're going to encounter. Often one person, one thing, can change a lot. To this day, the concubine doesn't know what she did right or what she did wrong, and the concubine just did things with her heart. Perhaps this is why we are in the current situation. Therefore, the concubines were willing to atone for their sins. If someone must die to calm this turmoil, the emperor also heard it that day, the turmoil was caused by the concubines, so the concubines were willing to die to appease the anger of everyone. ”
"Boom".
The dragon case was smashed hard.
A cold, low voice came from overhead: "I remember you once said, live well, live well......"
Her eyes burned.
And the voice was also stunned, and suddenly there was a little eagerness: "Jinling, what's wrong with you?" ”
How could you suddenly think of dying? So many turmoil, so many ups and downs, even if you are in prison, even if you endure suspicion, you have never thought of giving up your life, how can you ...... now
How can this person say that he doesn't understand her? But even if you know her, how can you force her to such a point? Everything...... Xu Ruoxi...... If she was in the house, would she ......
Is it a test?
To whom is it tested?
She didn't want to go through this ordeal!
Don't want to!
"Your Majesty Thank you for your concern, the concubine is indeed sincere in accepting the crime and being punished, and I hope the emperor will fulfill it."
"You ......"
"Your Majesty, the concubines don't want to make the emperor angry. The health of the emperor is the blessing of all the people in the world. I hope the emperor will take care of the dragon's body! ”
"Do you think I'll let him go?"
"Your Majesty, although the law of the country is ruthless, the emperor is flesh and blood, and there is also human nature. Imagine whether the people of the world would like to see the emperor kill a brother who has not yet caused a huge disaster, or do they want to see the emperor magnanimous and brotherly? His Royal Highness was also worried about the safety of King Qingning, so he disobeyed the holy decree. A prince is still like this, why can't His Majesty, as the Ninth Five-Year Honor, take care of his brotherhood? And in the final analysis, this is just a misunderstanding between brothers, is it just a misunderstanding, and they want to kill? As everyone knows, the emperor's words and deeds affect the world and are emulated by all people. The concubine heard a story about an ancient monarch who liked to wear purple clothes, and soon after, he found that the purple clothes of the people were in short supply. The minister told him that it was because he liked purple, and the people liked purple with him......"
Her eyes were still on the patterns on the brocade carpet, and her tone was low but firm: "Does the emperor want to see his people obey the law or is he willing to see them affectionate and righteous?" When a person has affection and knows how to care for others, all the laws and regulations will fall into place. Please think twice......"
"Do you know what the ministers would have thought if I had let him go as you had been?"
"So the concubine is willing to accept it on behalf of His Royal Highness, and all this is the fault of the concubine......"
"You ......"
"Your Majesty, Concubine Ning knelt outside all night, and begged so far, can you let her rest first? She has a strong temperament, if there is anything bad, how can the emperor bear it? ”
"I told her to leave a long time ago, but she refused to obey!"
"Your Majesty, why does Concubine Ning refuse to obey the emperor's orders, doesn't the emperor know what's going on?"
Yuwen Xuancang was silent for a moment, and beckoned Xiao Xuzi: "Tell Concubine Ning that I will suppress the fold and let her go back first." ”
Xiao Xuzi took the order and hurriedly went.
Hearing Ning Shuangshuang's crisp voice: "Thank you, Emperor!" ”
Then there was an exclamation outside.
Ning Shuangshuang fainted.
When the powerful spiritual support collapsed, she couldn't hold on any longer.
Shuangshuang, how deep is your love for Xuan Zheng? Xuan Zheng may not admit it verbally, but you have been "competing" for so many years, and this time, he lost......
Su Jinling bowed deeply again: "Concubine Xie Emperor!" ”
She respectfully retreated.
Yuwen Xuancang watched her disappear at the door, his palms always clenched tightly.
A ribbon from a purse slipped out of the fingers.
The ribbon had long since faded, but the pale of the knuckles was as red as a drop......
————————————————————
Along the way, it was still snowy.
Xiao Xuzi seemed to be very excited, the tip of her nose was red from the cold, but her mouth did not stop, and the hot air sprayed her eyebrows and eyelashes with a layer of white frost.
He craned his neck, crossed his arms, and the dust was stuck at his elbow, and he didn't know how many times he opened his mouth to the carriage next to him.
The doors and windows of the carriage were closed so tightly that even the wind could not stir the curtains, and I wondered if the people inside could hear his noise, and the people inside ...... He seems to be sleeping deeply.
“…… The princess is so powerful, and in just a few words, the emperor changed his mind. The princess didn't know that yesterday the group of ministers besieged the emperor, and the emperor had to approve the fold. The emperor held it down. Our family knows that it is difficult for the emperor to be many, and now one is against many, so ......"
He rubbed his ears that were red from the cold: "When the emperor says the princess's words, see what those ministers dare to nag." We heard that the princess persuaded the emperor to stop the war back then, and this time our emperor has the backbone......"
It doesn't matter if anyone listens or not, Xiao Xuzi muttered to himself.
The wind swept the snow through the branches and scattered them all over the group.
Xiao Xuzi was continuing to sing praises for Su Jinling, and he was shocked by his feet.
The group stopped in unison and looked at the few black-clothed people in front of them who seemed to fall from the sky.
Snow white and black clothes, the brakes are distinct.
Xiao Xuzi, who has been talking non-stop, seems to be scared stupid, and the people accompanying him are probably frozen and slow to react because the weather is too cold, or they are stunned by the sudden event, or they don't think about what the people want to do for the time being, and they are all stunned and don't say a word.
The wind howled overhead.
Xiao Xuzi quietly stepped back, grabbed the handle of the carriage tightly, and suddenly screamed heartbreakingly: "Escort ......"
At this sound, the maid wanted to flee in panic, and the guard also drew his knife...... And at this sound, the man in black who seemed to be a sculpture also pounced......
They were on the bridge, the road was narrow and slippery, and it was extremely difficult for them to escape and to face the enemy.
Some of the maids slipped under the bridge, some rolled to the side of the road, and the fists and feet of the guards were also greatly affected, and a man in black slashed and killed.
There was chaos outside, but there was still no movement in the car, as if the man inside had made up his mind to die.
The man in black rose up and suddenly rushed to the side of the car.
There was a loud bang, and the carriage flew up and smashed straight into the ice.
"Princess......
Everyone watched as a large hole was cracked in the snow-covered ice, and the carriage was stuck at the mouth of the hole.
It's a blessing in disguise.
They hurriedly jumped off the bridge.
However, due to the sudden increase in force on the ice surface, the cracks that had been hidden or cracked by the impact just now suddenly cracked and increased.
Not only did the man on the ice fall into the water, but the hole opened like a spider's web.
Hearing only a few cracks of "click", the ice suddenly spread cracks like lightning, and in the blink of an eye, the ice floe flooded, hugging the carriage, floating and sinking all the way away......
"Princess......
————————————————————
"What?"
In the Zhaoyang Palace, Yuwen Xuancang lost his fold, and his face was as pale as ice.
Although there is the sound of folds of clothes around and the sound of teeth trembling, it makes the hall even more silent.
The candle flame sang silently, swaying with charming warmth, but it couldn't melt the icy look, and even the breath it spit out was cold, as if it was going to condense the entire hall into an iceberg.
