Concubine Rou suddenly raised her head as if she was frightened, as if she hadn't heard Emperor Beiyan say anything more, but looking at the strange riding costume, she also understood what Emperor Beiyan meant, and said with some anger: "This riding costume was made in the palace, and the concubine doesn't know why this situation happened?" Could it be that Your Majesty suspects that this is the work of a concubine? ”

Concubine Rou's face turned a little paler, and her eyes were stained with a little mist, but she stubbornly refused to fall: "Your Majesty, if it weren't for the fact that the concubine was unwell that day, it was the concubine herself who wore this riding costume, could the concubine be so cruel to herself!" ”

Emperor Beiyan snorted coldly, and the atmosphere dropped to freezing point for a while.

Concubine Rou chuckled: "Now in the eyes of Your Majesty, I am afraid that there is no concubine for a long time, and the concubine's child has not come back yet, but Your Majesty ignores it, but asks if the concubine is the initiator of all this!" ”

"What did you say!" Emperor Beiyan couldn't believe it, and immediately turned his head to look at Beiliuyun.

"It's true that there is no news of the twelfth brother yet."

At this moment, the commander of the West Factory, who continued to search in the forest, reappeared: "Your Majesty, the servants have found the bodies of the twelve princes in the forest. ”

"What did you say!" The people present were stunned, and Emperor Beiyan crossed him and walked directly to the stretcher behind him, on which lay the twelve princes who had lost their breath, Bei Liuliang.

Chu Luoyi also frowned, things seemed to be getting more and more confusing, who did all this.

Beiliuyun has obviously saved him, and the guards who rushed have already arrived, why is the twelve princes who are arrogant and domineering, and who do not learn and have no skills, still die.

Concubine Rou looked at her son lying on the shelf, her whole eyes darkened, and she fainted directly.

Chu Luoyi's gaze fell on Beiliuyun, and finally shook his head, if he killed people in order to eliminate the disaster, he could have killed everyone when Beiliuliang was assassinated.

If not him, who would it be? Queen?

Chu Luoyi's eyes fell on the queen, this matter always seems to be the queen who has benefited the most, whether it is herself, Beiliuhai, Beiliuyun or Concubine Rou, they are all nine deaths and one life, and the damage is not small, only the queen is in the same vein, in this incident, it seems that it has not been affected at all.

This has to make people wonder if it is a good trick controlled by the queen and trying to catch everyone.

Looking at the crowded scenes in front of him, Chu Luoyi calmed down his chaotic heart a little bit, his eyes swept over Concubine Rou, who was pale and unconscious, and then looked at the queen with a complicated face, and straightened out her thoughts a little bit.

His eyes fell on the royal blue riding suit on the side, and he frowned, the sudden arrival of Concubine Rou's little day was a coincidence, or a well-designed trap?

If it is a coincidence, then the murderer is probably the queen, and the real purpose is to get rid of these powerful princes, who wanted to get rid of Concubine Rou by the way, but they didn't want to put on this riding uniform by mistake and be swept in. It's just that if it is the queen, it is a little too stupid to do this, all the princes are seriously injured, only the prince is safe and sound, and I really have to say that he is full of suspicion.

If it is carefully designed, then it is this killing in the forest carefully controlled by Concubine Rou. It's just that if it is really controlled by Concubine Rou, and there are guards all over the forest, how can she put her son's life on the line, you must know that once there is no prince, even if all the princes are eliminated, no matter how Concubine Rou fights for power in the future, it will be meaningless.

Chu Luoyi rubbed his temples, because of excessive blood loss, his eyes were a little black, and he wanted to call Xiao Liuzi, only to find that he didn't see a palace person from Luoyue Palace, and a bad premonition rose in his heart, and his thin nails printed blood-colored crescents in his palms.

Prop yourself up, sit in a chair, and watch the progress in front of you.

The mandarin duck and the other maids had already helped Concubine Rou aside, and Emperor Beiyan looked at the corpses of the twelve princes lying on the shelf with an ugly face, his chest rising and falling violently.

If it weren't for the fact that I was no longer close to women recently, my body had improved, and I was afraid that I would have fainted.

Compared with other princes who are extremely brave and brave in Wen Taowu, Beiliuliang may be the most stupid and stupid one, but even so, compared to those sons whose wisdom and power are even better than themselves, and who always calculate their lives and power, Emperor Beiyan may really prefer some sons who have no brains and only know how to fight bravely and ruthlessly, and are unscrupulous.

Little by little, the sun rises in the middle, and time passes imperceptibly, and things are still inconclusive.

Concubine Rou woke up little by little, standing next to the corpse of the Twelve Princes, no matter how she endured, tears finally burst out of her eyes: "Liangliang... Bright..."

Chu Luoyi has been paying attention to Concubine Rou's expression, but she has never seen the slightest clue, and the grief that comes out of her eyes is not like acting.

I want Xiao Liuzi to find the kapok of the Shanggong Bureau to investigate Concubine Rou's riding costume, and see what kind of bureaus have passed through in the process of rushing to make it, and what is abnormal in the middle.

Then he got up and said to Emperor Beiyan: "Your Majesty, the concubine will go back and wash up first, and then come over." ”

Emperor Beiyan looked at the embarrassed Chu Luoyi and said, "You go first." ”

Immediately, Emperor Beiyan asked Bei Liuyun to go back to rest, and he began to order people to carefully investigate all links.

Butterfly Wu watched Chu Luoyi leave, got up from the ground, and chased after him.

Chu Luoyi looked at the woman who stopped him in front of him, her expression remained unchanged, and she just wanted to hurry back to investigate Xiao Liuzi and the others.

When he returned, the palace people of Luoyue Palace did not show up for a long time, I am afraid that something really happened.

"Let me tell you, if something happens to Beiliuhai, I won't let you go, I must tell Your Majesty about your dog man and woman, and let you bury Brother Hai!" Butterfly Dance opened her hands, blocking Chu Luoyi's way, like a butterfly going to death.

"Okay."

Chu Luoyi spoke in a hoarse voice, and a faint word contained indescribable pain.

Butterfly Dance looked at the woman in front of her vaguely through tears, spread her legs and ran away.

With heavy steps and exhaustion, he walked step by step to his tent.

When the curtain was lifted, the tent was empty, and he trembled and reached out to pick up the teapot on the table, the tea was cold.

Opened the curtain again and walked out, and walked to the tent where Xiao Liuzi and the others were.

Standing outside the thick curtain, Chu Luoyi's outstretched hand suddenly paused, and he didn't move for a long time, just standing in front of the door, his expression stiff.

Smelling the heavy bloody breath, the trembling hand finally lifted the curtain of the tent little by little.

The wind blew, and the overwhelming bloody atmosphere was like a slaughterhouse, and it was like a blood-colored ocean, and you could vaguely see the bright red tumbling blood-colored waves, on which floated the severed arms and stumps, as well as the corpses with staring eyes.

As far as the eye could see, there were blood-colored people everywhere, their clothes were tattered and messy, and the blood flowing from the wounds gathered together and stained the blankets on the ground.

Stepping over these people, I don't know whether they were alive or dead, swept over those familiar faces one by one, and a cold teardrop rolled down from their faces.

With a 'click', cold teardrops seemed to turn into a hot flame and burst into the silent air.

took a few steps forward, but his ankle was grabbed by a bloodstained hand, and when he looked down, he could vaguely see that the person with blood blisters in his mouth was Xiao Liuzi.

Squatted down, held Xiao Liuzi in his arms, looked at the somewhat loose eyes, and choked up: "Live." ”

The corners of Xiao Liuzi's mouth laboriously hooked up a light smile, Chu Luoyi's face was lightly pressed against his cheek, feeling his temperature, Xiao Liuzi said softly: "Empress.."

Chu Luoyi's eyes flashed with a touch of murderous intent, he stood up, opened the curtain and walked out, and returned to the school grounds, at this time, except for Emperor Beiyan, no one could call so many imperial doctors and medicine children to come to treat a group of minions.

Walking through the noisy crowd, Chu Luoyi knelt directly in front of Emperor Beiyan.

"Luoluo, what's wrong?"

"Please Your Majesty send someone to treat the minions of Luoyue Palace." Chu Luoyi's voice did not fluctuate at all, but only she knew how deep the wave of hatred was in her heart.

Chu Luoyi kowtowed deeply, his bloodstained forehead touching the ground, solemn and reverent.

Emperor Beiyan helped her up: "Hurry up, I can't think about this matter." ”

"If it weren't for His Majesty's generous treatment, these palace people would have to wait for death, so why would Your Majesty say this?" Chu Luoyi's mood was not high.

It's ridiculous to be in the emperor's house, knowing that it was this man who indulged Xiao Liuzi that would end up like this, but he still had to come and beg him to save their lives!

Chu Luoyi didn't go back this time, his eyes fell on the queen, and his expression was blank.

The queen has always been uneasy, and she is even more shocked by this pair of empty eyes, and now it seems that she has benefited the most, but she can't say what, her heart is always up and down, and she is even more worried that Emperor Beiyan will be suspicious of herself.

A pair of black eyes, with a little red bloodshot, but numb and no focus, as if looking at the queen, but I always felt that my eyes did not fall on her, which made people feel creepy.

The queen retracted her gaze, and a touch of coldness flashed in her eyes, she couldn't imagine that this Chu Luoyi was really fateful, Beiliuhai and Beiliuyun were injured like this, she was still alive!

Concubine Rou's eyes also looked at the queen, her face was pale, but she seemed to have been enduring something, and the hatred was indescribably strong?

Chu Luoyi walked towards Beiliuliang's corpse, looked at it carefully, and began to analyze the pros and cons.

In the end, I thought of one person again, Wang Zhi.

Because of this vicious battle, it seems that the queen wins, but in fact, the queen is also full of suspicion from Emperor Beiyan, unless she plans to break the cauldron, she should at least let Beiliuye pretend to be attacked.

If the queen and Wang Zhi cooperated, Wang Zhi would count the queen in the end, and all the people of the royal family would be greatly damaged, not only would there be no loss for Wang Zhi, but it would be a great benefit.

Chu Luoyi's mind flashed again the scene of Concubine Rou saying that she could not participate in the hunt that day, at first she surrendered this riding costume to the queen, and wanted the queen to participate on her behalf, but was refused. Or is it that Concubine Rou wanted to design the queen, but in the end she was involved in it because of a sentence from Emperor Beiyan, and the death of the twelve princes was another conspiracy.

All kinds of fragments and ideas kept changing in his mind, almost bursting Chu Luoyi's brain.

Beiliuyun stood in a place in Beiliuhai, quietly looking at the thin back, letting the wind and rain blow her hair, watching her swaying in the wind, that straight back was sad.

Luo Luo, when can I hug when I want to hug, kiss when I want to kiss, can I not stand behind you silently like this, can I not look at you again and again cold heart, cold love, can tell you, I love you, I love you deeply, I love you so much.

Beiliuyun retracted his gaze and looked at Beiliuhai, who had always closed his eyes, and said lightly in his heart, when he couldn't hug, he could only be strong.

And just when everyone was in a hurry, the queen walked to Beiliuhai's side and asked the imperial doctor who was guarding the side, "How is Hai'er's injury?" ”

Butterfly Dance was cautious about the queen, and she didn't care about any dignity.

"Back to the queen mother, the fourth highness's injury is extremely serious, the ministers have tried their best to treat it, if you can't wake up within three days, I'm afraid it is... I'm afraid that I will be powerless. ”

Listening to the words of the imperial doctor, Butterfly Dance's tears fell again, gently shaking Beiliuhai's body: "Beiliuhai, don't die, don't die, if you hate me, I won't pester you anymore in the future, but please don't die." ”

The queen swept Butterfly Dance's little face and said softly to her: "Butterfly Dance, about the Fourth Highness, this palace has something I want to say to you." ”

Butterfly Dance was hesitant, but when she saw that it was related to Beiliuhai, she followed the queen to the side, and her little face was a little red because of the tears blown by the wind.

"I heard that you have been with Concubine Luo yesterday?" The queen withdrew from the crowd.

Butterfly Dance raised her eyes to look at the queen with a peaceful expression, and did not rush to answer: "Didn't the queen mother say that she wanted to talk to me about the Fourth Highness?" ”

The queen smiled and said: "It is indeed related to the Fourth Highness, seeing that the life of the Fourth Highness is dying, the palace is worried, thinking of a thousand-year-old snow clam in the Guozhang Mansion, maybe it can save the life of the Fourth Highness." ”

Butterfly Dance's eyes suddenly lit up: "The queen didn't lie to me?" ”

"How could Bengong lie to you, but can you tell Bengong now if you were with Concubine Luo all the time last night? Or, did you see who she was with? A gleam flashed in the Queen's eyes.

Butterfly Dance involuntarily recalled the scene of the two naked bodies hugging each other, and nodded.

"What do you see?" The queen asked.

"I saw His Royal Highness the Ninth and Concubine Luo naked together." Butterfly Dance said tentatively.

The queen's face, which had been frowning, finally showed a smile: "When it comes to today, this palace will send this snow clam to you, but if Your Majesty asks later, don't forget to answer truthfully."

"What does the queen mean?" Butterfly Dance's eyes flashed with brilliance, the thousand-year-old snow clam did have the possibility of saving Brother Hai.

"It's nature."

After getting the queen's promise, Diewu returned to Beiliuhai's side, a glimmer of hope ignited in her eyes, and she said lightly in her heart: Brother Hai, you say, should I tell Your Majesty about Concubine Luo and His Royal Highness Jiu.

In another place, several servants carefully examined Bei Liuliang's corpse, and after about half an hour, they said to Emperor Beiyan: "Back to Your Majesty, there is nothing unusual about the body of the Twelve Princes, and they did die of assassination. ”

"What did you find?" Emperor Beiyan's voice was very tired.

He respectfully handed over a pearl the size of a soybean and said: "This was found in the gap between the shoes of the Twelve Princes, but there is no such pearl on the Twelve Princes, and there are no such pearls on the surrounding guards and minions, which is a little strange." ”

Emperor Beiyan played with the pearl in his hand and said: "Immediately send an edict to Wang Fugui and ask him to thoroughly check the records of the Internal Affairs Office to see where this bead came from and who has been distributed." ”

The prince immediately ordered to go down, and Emperor Beiyan sat on a wide Taishi chair, his face ugly.

The ministers of the court and the central government are also in a mess, some people are happy and some are worried, this hunt, the Northern Yan royal family has suffered heavy losses, and it has undoubtedly become the biggest laughing stock.

After drinking some tea, Emperor Beiyan's eyes fell on Die Wu, who was guarding Beiliuhai's side, and sure enough, he asked, "You have been in the forest all the time yesterday?" ”

Empress Roufei and everyone's eyes fell on Butterfly Dance, knowing that this was an inquiry about Bei Liuyun and Chu Luoyi.

The rumors of the two fornicating were spreading before, presumably Emperor Beiyan wanted to collect evidence in front of everyone.

"Yes."

Butterfly Dance's voice was a little listless, and the resentment in her eyes when she looked up at Chu Luoyi was clearly visible.

"Then you've been with Concubine Luo yesterday?" As soon as Emperor Beiyan's words came out, countless pairs of eyes fell on Butterfly Dance.

Butterfly Dance stood in the eyes of everyone, and could clearly feel the scorching gaze, as if she was a piece of fat now, everyone was waiting to eat her into her belly earlier, those eyes with all kinds of desires, hot, or for love, or for power, or for survival, without exception, all stared at her tightly.

Beiliuyun clenched the dagger in his hand, nervous, and began to regret why he didn't kill her directly.

The queen's eyes were scorching, and her eyes were like jewels, blooming with an inconvenient light.

Concubine Rou, who was pale, also raised her head slightly, even though she did not come out of the pain, she was also paying attention to the progress of the matter.

Even the ministers who were watching with them were thinking about their own thoughts, hoping that they could finally say different answers from the butterfly dance.

Butterfly Wu's gaze fell on Chu Luoyi, and on the pair of dark, without a trace of panic, she finally spoke slowly: "Back to Your Majesty, that's right, last night the courtiers saw that Concubine Luo was assassinated and her life was in danger, so she sneaked up on a few guards, and pulled Concubine Luo Niangniang all the way, and after not wanting to step on the air, they fell into the cave together, until my father found us this morning." ”

Beiliuyun's hand holding the dagger slowly loosened, and the straightened body gradually relaxed, and the queen's eyes widened, because of the huge anger, her eyes were a little bulging, and she looked particularly hideous.

The queen took a heavy breath and looked at Butterfly Dance resentfully, feeling indescribably flustered in her heart, always feeling that something big was about to happen.

Emperor Beiyan nodded, looked at the Beitang Demon and said, "How was Yun'er doing last night?" Why didn't you come back until it was dark? ”

Beiliuyun lowered his eyes and explained: "Erchen was always with the fourth brother last night, and later suffered an assassination to defend against the enemy, the enemy is strong and I am weak, the fourth brother covered Erchen to stand out from the siege and came to ask his father for help. ”

Emperor Beiyan nodded, Chu Luoyi didn't look at his expression, there is no conclusive evidence at the moment, Emperor Beiyan will not have a seizure, after all, if he really confirms the evidence of his adultery with Beiliuyun, it will be the emperor himself who will be laughed at by the world again.

What's more, if he really disposes of himself, I am afraid that Emperor Beiyan will also worry that Longyang's inaction will be leaked out.

Seeing this, Butterfly Dance spoke again: "Your Majesty, just now the queen mother mentioned to her courtiers that there is a thousand-year-old snow clam in the Guozhang Mansion, and she is willing to take it out for the treatment of the Fourth Highness." ”

King Xiangjiang stood aside and frowned disapprovingly, but he also knew that he couldn't help himself, sighed, and finally didn't speak.

When the queen heard this, her face turned green, and in the face of Emperor Beiyan's gaze, she finally smiled and said: "The concubine has this intention, and she has already sent someone to fetch it, and I hope Hai'er can recover as soon as possible." ”

Emperor Beiyan hummed heavily, but he didn't give the queen any good looks.

After Butterfly Dance got up, she returned to Beiliuhai's side, looked at the person who was still asleep, and smiled and shed a string of tears.

Beiliuhai, you use your life to protect her, how can I be willing to let you fall short, is it if you are awake at this moment, you will also tell me with a cold face to prove her innocence.

The warm breeze of spring, blowing the woman's red gauze skirt, the neon dress dances lightly, covering the red sun on the mountain, through the tulle, I see the distant mountains ups and downs, the sky is vast, the north flowing sea, you brought me from the temple hall, to this wide world, I follow your footsteps, but you never want to look back.

After waiting for a long time, the queen presented the thousand-year-old snow clams sent by the Guozhang Mansion to the imperial doctor, and a group of white bearded imperial doctors began to discuss new treatment methods, and put the snow clams into medicine, in an attempt to leave a glimmer of life for Beiliuhai.

As the sun sets, another day passes, and everyone is tired of these things, good or bad.

"How? What is the situation with Haier? "After Emperor Beiyan saw the snow clam in medicine, he asked about the situation of Beiliuhai again, if he lost two sons in one day, it would be a big pain for Emperor Beiyan, who would never have children again.

"The situation of the Fourth Highness has improved slightly, but whether he will wake up or not depends on the creation of the Fourth Highness, and the ministers can only say that they are doing their best and obeying the destiny of heaven."

The words of the imperial doctor trembled and trembled, but they were also sincere.

Chu Luoyi swept over the man who was still unconscious, and sighed lightly, all he could do was pray for him to wake up.

Before Wang Fugui, the deputy chief of the eunuchs, arrived, Emperor Beiyan sent a message to let everyone disperse, which is indeed good news for Chu Luoyi, who has been running around for two days and is hungry, not to mention that the tigers and wolves here are looking around, and it is difficult to distinguish between the enemy and me, and it is good to be able to avoid everyone and have some respite.

I went back to the camp tent and went directly to visit Xiao Liuzi and others, the camp tent had been cleaned up, and the palace people of Luoyue Palace had also been treated, and the bloodstained ground had been washed out many times, and it was replaced with a new blanket, but it was still difficult to hide the tragic cub that disappeared in the air.

The injuries of the palace people in the outer courtyard are lighter, and those who can get up are helping to do everything, and as for the cronies in the inner courtyard, the closer they are to Chu Luoyi, the more serious the injuries will be.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at the sleeping little Liuzi, his expression was dark.
