Chapter 88: Can't Help It
The spring breeze blows, rolling up the pink petals that fall to the ground.
In the rain of flowers, Lou Yue walked towards Su Liuying with firm steps. He described it as extremely dignified, and there was a strange light in his eyes, which made Su Liuying's heart tremble.
What would she do if he offered to him again to be together?
Refusal, or ...... Refuse?
As she had thought before, she had no choice but to reject him again.
However, these days when she was completely cut off from him, thinking about the cold light in his eyes when he looked at him when he was in Changxin Palace, stung her deeply.
That's just the heartache......
He got closer and closer, his tall body approaching, and Su Liuying couldn't help but retreat before he could think of the final answer.
However, where is she Lou Yue's opponent?
The next moment, Lou Yue was already standing in front of her, and as soon as her long arm stretched out, she grabbed Su Liuying's hand.
Her hand was clamped tightly, and before Su Liuying could come back to her senses, Lou Yue had already taken her hand and walked out together.
"The ...... of the Prince"
When Su Liuying came back to her senses, Lou Yue had already pulled her out of the distance, and the vast surroundings were full of peach forests, and the eyes were also scorching and open peach blossoms.
Lou Yue pulled her straight into the depths of the peach forest.
The layers of peach forests completely isolated the sound on the other side of the banquet, and the whole world was quiet, Su Liuying not only heard her own 'pounding' heartbeat, but also heard Lou Yue's powerful heartbeat.
"Lord Shizi...... You forgot the day we said we were good......"
Su Liuying, who came back to her senses, although she was attached to the temperature of Lou Yue's palm, but when she thought of the deep hatred of the sea of blood between them, her heart ached, and she finally opened her mouth with difficulty.
"Give me a moment!"
There was no room to interrupt Su Liuying's words, Lou Yue's eyes looked at her steadily, her dark eyes were full of different emotions, with a trace of unconcealable grief and entanglement in her description, but her tone was extremely firm.
"When I return from the expedition, I will give you an answer and a result for everything!"
With a shock all over her body, Su Liuying looked at him in disbelief.
She didn't understand what he meant, did he know the truth of everything?
Yes, with Lou Yue's wisdom, how can he hide his own thoughts.
What's more, since Concubine Ning's miscarriage, he has been tracking down the real culprit, and he has also found out A-Niang's identity, so I am afraid that he has found out the truth clearly.
Looking at him in a daze, Su Liuying had mixed feelings in her heart-
If he really knew that his aunt was the real murderer, what did he mean by that...... But do you want to kill your relatives in righteousness?!
However, if you want to investigate everything that Queen Lou has done, I am afraid that if she is not the only one who is convicted, the Lou family will be implicated.
Can he abandon the Lou clan and ignore it?
In an instant, Su Liuying's heart was already turning a thousand times, and she couldn't help but hesitate in her eyes when she looked at Lou Yue.
The hesitation in her eyes stung Lou Yue's heart.
Enduring the pain in his heart, Lou Yue said in a deep voice: "During the days when I went on the expedition, you don't do anything, protect yourself...... Stay away from that Prince Xiao! ”
Su Liuying wanted to ask him how he knew the truth. But when the words came to his mouth, he finally swallowed them silently, but the words he said couldn't hide his concern.
"Beixian is still cold and snowy at this time...... The prince must take care of himself when he goes......"
Thinking that he was about to go on the expedition, but he was still worried about his safety, Su Liuying's heart was sour, and the bitterly suppressed emotions in her heart and her deep affection for Lou Yue could no longer be restrained, and her red eyes couldn't help but say: "I'll be fine...... Waiting for you to come back! ”
Her simple words, but like the warm sun, instantly melted Lou Yue's cold heart, rescued him from this day when life was worse than death, and the emotions in her heart could no longer be suppressed and exposed.
In the next moment, Lou Yue's long arm stretched out and rolled her into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her on the lips......
All things in heaven and earth regained their colorful colors at this moment, the falling petals carried a sweet taste, and even the tears that slid down Su Liuying's dense long eyelashes were like sweet springs, no longer so bitter......
"I'll marry you when I come back from my expedition! You are already my man, and I will not allow you to run away! ”
On the other side, after Lou Yue took Su Liuying away, the entire banquet fell into a period of silence and embarrassment.
Xiao Mo wanted to catch up, but he thought about the purpose of his trip to Dayong, so he finally gritted his teeth and endured it, and returned to the banquet to drink alone.
And Hu Yingying, who was already full of confidence, thought that she would be in the eyes of the queen and Lou Yue today, and she was very hopeful of marrying into King An's mansion, but she didn't expect that the result of her hard work was that Lou Yue ran away with a palace maid, leaving her color stripes lonely and desperate to hang on the high branches......
Among all the people, only Princess Lishu was happy.
After all, Su Liuying was pulled away by Lou Yue, so she no longer had to surround Prince Xiao to be an eyesore.
After the last incident, Lishu not only completely lost her heart to Lou Yue, but also disappointed in her imperial brother Yin Ming, plus without her mother, Lishu thought that it would be better to marry Hu Di with Xiao Mo if she stayed in this indifferent and ruthless harem, at least he was Hu Di's crown prince, and if he married him, he would be the crown princess, the future queen of Hu Di.
Thinking like this, she brought the wine to Xiao Mo with her own hands.
Xiao Mo, who usually drinks an amazing amount of alcohol, was slightly drunk today, and looked at Princess Lishu standing in front of him with confused eyes, and actually saw her as Su Liuying.
Hooking his lips and smiling evilly, he put down the wine glass in his hand, staggered to his feet, stretched out his hand to her, and said, "Little fool, it's too boring here, send Prince Ben back!" ”
Looking at his outstretched hand, Lishu's heart trembled, hesitated for a moment, and finally reached out excitedly and grabbed Xiao Mo's hand.
Xiao Mo staggered, Lishu couldn't help but have some difficulty supporting him, and the second-class palace maid Liuli beside the queen greeted him and said enthusiastically: "Princess, it's better to send Prince Xiao to the back room to rest before leaving." ”
Like on the edge of Huaqing Pond, in order to let the guests of the banquet rest and change their clothes, there is a courtyard wing room built on Yunmengtai.
Lishu glanced at the high steps leading to the bottom of the stage, and then at the drunk Xiao Mo, thinking that if he fell down the high steps, he would be in trouble. So he followed Liuli's suggestion and helped Xiao Mo to the back room with Xiu'er......
From the jade plate that Xiao Mo took out just now, to the color bar that Lou Yue shot down Su Liuying, everything was beyond Queen Lou's expectations.
Terrible thoughts flashed in her mind, and Queen Lou had a headache, and she didn't have the heart to stay anymore. was about to drive back to Yongkun Palace, but Yingluo stepped forward with a white face and whispered something in her ear.
Listening to it, Queen Lou's face turned pale, and she turned her eyes and glanced at Yingluo, who looked panicked, and said hatefully: "...... you"
Before he finished speaking, the man hurried to the back room.
However, as soon as she walked halfway, Xiu'er, the palace maid beside Lishu, had already run over with a white face, and when she saw Queen Lou and her party, she was about to speak, but Queen Lou had already restrained her with a loud shout, and said coldly: "Don't say it, this palace knows everything!" ”
With that, his footsteps became more and more hurried towards the wing.
When Queen Lou and her entourage arrived there, there was already a commotion in the wing.
Xiao Mo was lying on the bed with a flushed face, disheveled, unconscious.
But Princess Lishu's description was even more unsightly, the clothes on her body were torn into a mess, and many places were exposed, and she was wrapped in a futon and crying.
Queen Lou was trembling with anger, but she gritted her teeth and calmed down, and repeatedly ordered the palace people to bring clothes for Princess Lishu to change into and send them back to the Scarlet Palace, while strictly ordering the people present not to pass on a word about the things here.
After Princess Lishu was sent away, Xiao Mo hadn't woken up yet. Queen Lou looked at the mess and had a headache -
This happened during the banquet in her palace, and the prince of Hu Di and the princess of Dayong were involved, and the spread not only made people around the world criticize and joke, but even caused people to speculate, saying that everything was deliberately done by Dayong.
Then, everything that happened in the wing room today was indeed deliberately done by Queen Lou, but her original plan was to make something happen between Su Liuying and Xiao Mo, so that Lou Yue would completely die to her.
Empress Lou had keenly felt that Lou Yue had already noticed what had happened before, although he didn't say anything on the surface, but Empress Lou was worried that Su Liuying, who knew all the truth, had told him something.
Moreover, the last time he was in Changxin Palace, he saw himself being burned, but he didn't care at all, and he didn't visit Yongkun Palace afterwards, which was too different from Lou Yue, who was close to her before.
Before, even if she was a little uncomfortable, Lou Yue visited her for the first time, and she was like a mother and son.
Therefore, Queen Lou, who promised to protect Su Liuying's thoughtfulness, could no longer kill her in a short period of time. But in order to avoid having too many dreams at night, Queen Lou finally found a way to separate Lou Yue's feelings for Su Liuying.
As long as Su Liuying's innocence is taken up by other men, Lou Yue will die.
And as soon as he dies, he won't care about her life or death anymore......
Queen Lou painstakingly planned everything, and first added a small amount of fan to Xiao Mo's wine jug. medicine, let him think he was drunk, let Su Liuying send him back to the side room to rest.
And the incense in the wing room also quietly added aphrodisiac incense, Xiao Mo, who was not very conscious, was stimulated by the aphrodisiac incense and would definitely not be able to control it......
Queen Lou saw that Xiao Mo was interested in Su Liuying, so she specially arranged for Su Liuying to serve Xiao Mo today.
Everything was planned seamlessly, but he didn't expect Lou Yue to come out of the middle of the way and take Su Liuying away abruptly.
Queen Lou was immersed in the shock of the jade plate that Xiao Mo took out, and she was even more shocked by Lou Yue's actions later, and she had a headache, but she didn't have time to notify Yingluo to cancel the plan, but she didn't expect Lishu to accompany Xiao Mo into the wing......
It's only been a few days since Lishu committed suicide before, and now it's coming out again, I don't know how she will make trouble in front of Emperor Huicheng?
And this Prince Xiao Mo Xiao is not a good stubble, what will he think if he finds out that he has been used? If it is not handled properly, I am afraid that this matter will turn into a major event between the two countries!
Dayong was at war with Beixian at this time, and both countries were courting Hu Di, so at this time, Dayong could never offend Hu Di......
The more she thought about it, the more panicked and headache Queen Lou became, looking at the palace people who were so frightened that she knelt on the ground, she gritted her teeth with hatred, and immediately ordered to beat to death the glass stick that led Lishu and Xiao Mo to the wing room.
Liuli is the sister of Yingluo's fellow villagers, and after entering Yongkun Palace on an errand, she has been supported by Yingluo and has become a second-class palace maid next to Queen Lou.
This time, Liuli also listened to Yingluo's instructions and was responsible for luring Xiao Mo to the wing, but she didn't know the conspiracy behind it, so when she heard that Queen Lou wanted her own life, she was so frightened that her buttocks urinated, and she rolled forward and hugged Yingluo's hand and begged her to save herself.
There was such a big incident today, Queen Lou was furious, Yingluo herself could not be protected, even if she couldn't bear it in her heart, she didn't dare to plead for Liuli again, and let her be dragged down and beaten to death.
Listening to Liuli's screams, the cold sweat on Yingluo's body trickled down, and her body trembled like chaff.
After a while, no sound could be heard, and the eunuch who executed him came, and Liuli was dead.
Queen Lou's face was as cold as frost, and her phoenix eyes looked at Yingluo on the side even colder, and said coldly: "How do you say this matter will end?" ”
As soon as her knees were weak, Yingluo knelt in front of Queen Lou and said in a trembling voice: "Niangniang, the slave maid has asked clearly, the fifth princess was just a little frightened, but she didn't ...... Didn't lose ...... And Prince Xiao was drunk and didn't wake up, so he must not have remembered what happened to Qing when he woke up. If asked, just say...... Let's just say that he slept in the wing room after getting drunk, and it was just a small palace maid in the same room as him...... Niangniang comforted the five princesses and let her ...... Let her stop making a noise, and the matter can be revealed......"
Queen Lou's phoenix eyes widened slightly, her tone softened for half a minute, and she said coldly: "What handle do you have left?" ”
When Yingluo heard this, she knew that Queen Lou had accepted her proposal, and she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and said, "Niangniang, don't worry, the incense in the room and the wine on Prince Xiao's table have all been replaced......"
Empress Lou sighed heavily and said, "You personally go to Prince Xiao's side to guard, if he wakes up and asks something, you tell him as he just said, and you must appease him." This palace will go to the Scarlet Palace to meet the five princesses now! ”
The master and servant acted in two ways, and then, before Queen Lou arrived at the Scarlet Palace, Princess Lishu had already gone to Chengqian Palace to see Emperor Huicheng.
Although Lishu is pampered, she is not stupid, so after all this happened, after the initial panic, she understood that this was an opportunity for her to marry Xiao Mo.
Therefore, when Lishu cried to Emperor Huicheng, she couldn't help but exaggerate the matter and cry so much that she couldn't help herself.
Although the emperor's daughter is not worried about getting married, Emperor Huicheng still has to worry about her marriage, and now when he hears that her innocence is gone, he suddenly became angry. In a fit of anger, let people arrest Xiao Mo, who had defiled Lishu.
However, without waiting for the guards to arrest people, Xiao Mo rushed into the Chengqian Hall with an angry face. Why did you frame him? Why should he be obsessed with the wine he drinks? Medicine? Why light aphrodisiac incense in his chamber?
Hearing this, the anger on Emperor Huicheng's face changed to a look of shock, and he couldn't believe what he heard.
The prince of a dignified country was drugged and aphrodisiac, at least in a small way, but in a big way, it was a major event that caused war.
Shocked back to his senses, Emperor Huicheng instantly felt the seriousness of the situation, and gave an order, ordering a strict investigation of the matter!
At that time, Queen Lou also chased Princess Lishu to Chengqian Palace, and when she heard that Xiao Mo had discovered all the conspiracy, she was already white-faced. When he heard that Emperor Huicheng ordered a strict investigation, he was even more frightened.
And before, Queen Lou clearly strictly ordered that the matter of the wing room was not allowed to be spread outside, but in less than a moment, everything that happened in the wing room was spread, and finally it reached the point where everyone knew about it.
When Lou Yue sent Su Liuying back to Changxin Palace, the two naturally heard this rumor.
And when it came to them, it had evolved into Prince Xiao and the fifth princess looking at each other on the Shangsi Festival, and they couldn't help but do something in the wing......
Su Liuying was shocked, she never expected that Xiao Mo and Lishu would get together, and she didn't believe what she heard.
Lou Yue looked indifferent.
For him, except for Su Liuying, other people and things are floating clouds, and they don't take it seriously.
What's more, in his selfish heart, it is a good thing that Prince Xiao, who is pestering Su Liuying, and Princess Lishu, who is pestering him, can get together.
However, when he heard Nanshan's message, his face changed instantly, and his softened face was instantly covered with frost......
On the other side, Su Liuying, who had just returned to Changxin Palace, was immediately called to the dormitory by Concubine Ning.
Su Liuying's heart was worried.
She had clearly said to Concubine Ning before that there was no possibility between her and Lou Yue, but today......
Thinking of everything that happened in the peach forest, Su Liuying's heart was still pounding, her lips were swollen and numb, and her face was even more red and dripping blood.
She thought in a panic that Concubine Ning must have blamed her for going back on her word, so she asked her to go in and question.
If Concubine Ning asked about her relationship with Lou Yue again, could she still say that there was no relationship between them?
I was in turmoil and panic. After entering the hall, she was about to kneel down to plead guilty, but Concubine Ning couldn't wait to speak-
"Do you know that if Lou Shizi hadn't pulled you away today, you would have been the one who was innocent by Prince Xiao at this time!"
As soon as Concubine Ning said this, Su Liuying's face turned white in an instant!
Seeing her look of shock and disbelief, Concubine An smiled coldly, gritted her teeth and said hatefully: "If I guessed correctly, Queen Lou arranged all this to get you and Prince Xiao together." In this way, you will fall into a seduction. The crime of, even if you are not executed, will be disliked by Lou Yue, and it can be regarded as a separation between you and Lou Louyue! ”
Hearing this, Su Liuying's whole body was cold, like falling into an ice cellar.
It turned out that when Princess Lishu accompanied Xiao Mo to the wing room behind Yunmengtai by Liuli, Concubine Ning was walking behind them, and when she saw this, she couldn't help but have doubts in her heart.
After taking care of it, Liuli saw the drunken Prince Xiao, but she couldn't let him stay in the palace anymore, let alone let him go to the back room with Princess Lishu.
Concubine Ning, who had been immersed in the harem for many years, immediately felt that the situation was unusual, and immediately took Fei'er to quietly follow.
Later, when I saw everything that happened in the wing, and then heard what Queen Lou said to Xiu'er, as well as the panicked movements of Yingluo and others in the back, and finally saw what Fei'er brought back secretly, my heart was already bright, and I understood that Xiao Mo's drunkenness was actually a trap specially set by Queen Lou.
But seeing that Queen Lou tried her best to suppress the wing room and not make a noise, Concubine Ning couldn't help but have doubts in her heart - since she painstakingly set a trap, why did she finally suppress the wing room?
In the blink of an eye, she understood—
There is only one reason, that is, Princess Lishu is not the one who Queen Lou wants to end up!
This discovery made Concubine Ning's heart tremble - who is the person Queen Lou is going to murder today?
In the harem that day, the biggest enemy of Queen Lou was herself, and she must be the one who murdered her.
Immediately afterwards, Concubine Ning thought of Xiao Mo's affection for Su Liuying at the banquet today, and then thought that Su Liuying was called to serve Xiao Mo for no reason, and her heart sank with a 'groan', and then she realized that the person Lou Yue wanted to deal with was Su Liuying by her side......
Listening to Ning Concubine sort out and analyze things from beginning to end, Su Liuying's cold sweat spread out layer by layer, and she also recognized Ning Concubine's guess in her heart.
Hands trembling uncontrollably—
If Lou Yue hadn't appeared to take her out of the banquet, then, after Xiao Mo was 'drunk', as the palace maid who was waiting for him, Queen Lou would definitely let her send Xiao Mo to the wing. Then after getting there, Xiao Mo was urged. The poison of love fragrance will definitely make things more and more to her uncontrollably. And when the time comes, Queen Lou will definitely send someone to appear 'at the right time' and catch herself and Xiao Mo in bed......
Coldly, Su Liuying's whole body was cold, she couldn't stop trembling, and her face was terrifyingly white!
Looking at her appearance, Concubine Ning's voice was cold without a trace of warmth, "That poisonous woman is vicious, it's not something we can dodge if we want to." ”
Ning Concubine had been looking for an opportunity to deal with Queen Lou before, and now that she has such a good opportunity in front of her, how can Ning Concubine let it go?
Looking at the surging excitement in her eyes, Su Liuying's heart sank, and she exclaimed, "What are you going to do?" ”
Concubine Ning was so excited that her hands trembled, her sharp apricot eyes flashed with excitement, and she sneered: "This kind of opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. This time, although the poisonous woman cannot be killed, the palace wants to take back the power of the palace from the poisonous woman. ”
Thinking of what Lou Yue had said to herself, and then thinking that this matter involved the crown prince of Hu Diguo, Su Liuying was worried in her heart, and she didn't persuade herself: "Niangniang, this matter is small or small, but it can involve major matters between the two countries...... Mother, slave advises you not to interfere......"
"It's late!"
Concubine Ning smiled coldly, her expression was unparalleled, and she said coldly: "I have asked Lishu to go to the emperor to ask for justice, according to her temperament, she will not be dumb and silent." ”
"As for Prince Xiao, the palace also told him that everything today is a conspiracy, but I'm afraid that the noble Prince Xiao is even more unwilling to be used as a monkey, so he can hold his breath!"
"However, just now, the emperor has ordered a strict investigation of this matter, so if she opens the bow and does not turn back, the evil things that the poisonous woman has done by herself should let her taste the evil consequences!"
Looking at the ruthlessness in Concubine Ning's eyes, Su Liuying's heart sank, and she actually had a bad premonition in her heart.
But when I thought about it, Queen Lou did a lot of evil and harmed countless people, which is indeed unforgivable. And this time is definitely a good time to deal with her.
She worried: "But I just heard from Niangniang that the queen has let people destroy all the evidence, what if she refuses to admit it?" ”
Hearing this, Concubine Ning hooked her lips and smiled proudly, pointed at the things on the side with sharp armor, and said with a smile: "This is the residual wine that Prince Xiao drank that Fei'er got from the banquet, and there is incense in the chamber." With these two things, look at how that slut quibbles!? ”
