Han Yuchu snorted coldly: "Yes, this is the queen mother of Chang'an today." It's just that the two of you kidnapped and kidnapped the daughter of the Hou Mansion, but today you are so bold that you broke ground on the head of the queen's mother, I think you are full of evil, and you don't want to live. ”

The two knelt on the ground, dumbfounded, and were stunned. It took a long time to react, tears and begging.

"The mother spares her life, the adult spares her life, the villain kidnapping the lady is all instructed by someone, and the villain is wronged."

"Commanded? Joke, I have never gone out of the door, I have never offended anyone, who will instruct you to kidnap me? Chang Lingxi sneered and retorted.

"What we say is true, not nonsense!" Zhang San swore an oath, and told the truth: "The one who instructed the two of us to kidnap Mrs. you that day is the sister who is with you, we really don't know your identity, otherwise, even if we give us ten hundred dares, we don't dare to be so bold!" ”

"What did you say?" Chang Lingxi interrupted the two of them: "Who do you say instructed you?" ”

Zhang San seemed to suddenly see hope: "It's the girl who was with you that night." She found us in advance, and also gave us a sum of silver, and agreed that on the day of the Shangyuan Festival, she would trick you out of the house and go to the street to see the lights together. Let's wait for the opportunity to kidnap you, take you out of the capital, and sell you far away.

Later, there were many of you, and we couldn't find a chance to start, and we saw that the success was lost. She is looking for an excuse to quarrel with you and wants to discuss with us what to do. As a result, you happened to follow you, so we took the opportunity to pretend to be kidnapped by us and lure you over. You know everything that happened. ”

"Chang Lingyan!" After Ling Xi was shocked, he was furious and said hatefully: "You are so ruthless! No wonder after she returned to the Hou Mansion, her father asked her where I was, and she actually hid it. Am I just getting in the way of her eyes? ”

As shocked as Ling Xi, there was also Yuehua, who was also a little incredulous: "How could it be? You've never provoked her, and she can't be so vicious and wants to get rid of you. ”

"If it's not because of jealousy, it's because Ling Xi has hindered her plans, and nothing else." Han Yuchu pondered for a moment and guessed.

"I know why!" Chang Lingxi was stunned, and he was categorical.

"Why?"

"All she has been thinking about is wanting to enter the palace! When my father came back from the palace that day and told her that the Empress Dowager had exempted her from entering the palace, she became angry and cried for a long time, looking at me like an old enemy, and hated to eat me alive.

It just so happened that you entrusted your father to bring me a lot of rewards, and she kept scolding and scolding, saying that I must have curried favor with you behind my back, took away her way into the palace, and wanted to replace her. She has been targeting me for the past few days, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, endlessly. That's why she's so desperate to get rid of me. ”

"This Chang Lingyan is simply a ghost!" Yuehua shook her head angrily: "In order to enter the palace, the sisters are either stumbling blocks or climbing the ladder for her. ”

Sighing with emotion, Yuehua relieved her taste coldly, and asked Zhang San: "You said that the person who instructed you to release the snake knew you, and spoke softly, like a woman?" ”

Zhang San nodded hurriedly.

"How old is that man?"

"He doesn't look too young, about thirty."

"Is it smooth and without a beard?"

"Yes, yes, that is, I thought it was weird at the time, but as soon as you reminded it, the tone was like a eunuch."

"It turns out that it's Chang Lingyan again!" Yuehua said indignantly: "Is she trying to kill them all? ”

"Hehe, in order to enter the palace and betray her relatives, I will see, one day, when she deserves it, who will have mercy on her?"

Han Yuchu stepped forward and pointed to the two splashes on the ground: "I'll send the two of them to the official mansion and hand them over to Jing Zhaoyin for interrogation, right?" ”

When the two of them heard this, their faces changed greatly, and they kowtowed like pecking rice: "Niangniang, Niangniang, you promised to let us go, and we have all explained it clearly." ”

Yuehua snorted coldly: "For the sake of a little silver tael, the two of you actually acted for the tiger, doing all kinds of evil things, and it was a crime to think about it." Even if I am willing to forgive you, the people of Beijing will not be willing to keep you two to continue to do evil. I will be a wicked man who does not keep my promises, and I will eliminate the harm for the people, and I will keep this silver tael for the two of you to collect the corpses. ”

Yuehua gave an order, Chu Jiu found a rope, tied the two of them up, handed them over to Han Yuchu's people, and escorted them to the official mansion.

On the third day, Shao Ziqing heard about this and immediately went out of the city to visit Yuehua in the maple forest.

The entire bamboo house has been smoked with mugwort, Chu Mubai and Chu Jiu have also checked it closely, Shao Ziqing is still not at ease, and personally configured the medicine powder to repel snakes and insects, sprinkled it around the bamboo house and the place where Yuehua often moves, and gave a sachet to Yuehua, saying that it can drive away a hundred poisons.

Yuehua is also not polite, yesterday's incident really scared her, and hung the sachet on her body, like a treasure.

It was lunchtime, and Xiangshen stewed a chicken with tender ginger to replenish Yuehua's body. Shao Ziqing came unexpectedly, and Chu Jiu immediately added dishes and chopsticks, and took out a jar of mulberry wine, and poured and drank with Shao Ziqing, telling the story of yesterday's events.

Shao Ziqing didn't use chopsticks, just drank on an empty stomach. Yuehua gave him a bowl of chicken soup, and he frowned and waved his hand: "It's so pungent and choking, doesn't it spoil the charm of the wine?" ”

Ginger is added to the chicken soup, the taste is relatively strong, and Shao Ziqing doesn't like it very much. Xiang Shen got up and fried a few golden eggs with green onions.

The two of them were already slightly drunk, and they couldn't eat anything by pushing their glasses and changing their glasses.

Yuehua had something in her heart, and she was worried that Shao Ziqing's drinking on an empty stomach would hurt her stomach, so she persuaded each other politely, and the two put down the wine glass in their hands as they said, ate two mouthfuls of food hastily, and cleaned up the table.

Only Yuehua and Shao Ziqing were left in the room, and they were still full of wine.

Yuehua had the opportunity to ask how the case of Zhang San and Li Biao was heard. Shao Ziqing talked about him left and right, and kept avoiding it.

The more vague he was, the more strange Yuehua felt, and after asking repeatedly, Shao Ziqing said euphemistically: "Those two gangsters deserve their crimes, and they have been punished." ”

This is not what Yuehua is most concerned about: "Isn't there a good trial of the case?" What about Chang Lingyan? Continuing to get away with it? ”

Shao Ziqing hesitated for a moment and said: "After all, this matter is about the royal face, after Jing Zhaoyin's interrogation was known, he didn't dare to make his own decisions, and directly reported to the emperor, it was the emperor's decree that beheaded Zhang San and Li Biao." ”

Yuehua was very surprised by such an ending, but she felt that it was reasonable, and smiled gloomily: "In other words, it's over, right?" ”

Shao Ziqing was silent for a moment: "Don't take it too seriously, good and evil will be rewarded in the end, probably just before the time comes." ”

Yuehua was indifferent, but her heart was turbulent, and she was stabbed.

Once, Mo Guhan also favored himself so inexplicably, but now, the old man has been replaced by the new person, and the palm of his hand has been replaced by Chang Lingyan. No matter what wrong thing she did, in Mo Guhan's eyes, it was all right.

As a generation of emperors, he disregarded the law and discipline, whitewashed black and white, and buried his crimes for Chang Lingyan.

In particular, the victim of this incident is still her Chu Yuehua. If he hadn't found it in time and had the protection of Chu Jiu, he would have died now, would he still be so lighthearted?

The last glimmer of hope in her heart was annihilated, her hands couldn't help but tremble slightly, her nails sank deep into her palms, and her knuckles were a little white.

Shao Ziqing, who was on the other side, looked at her with a sad expression, and slowly stretched out his hand towards her, held her fist in the palm of his hand, and broke it one by one, and the pinching marks in the shape of several months of teeth were deeply imprinted in the white palm.

"Why bother?" Shao Ziqing sighed slowly, mixed with a faint aroma of wine.

Yuehua lowered her head to hide her gradually hazy teary eyes.

"You still can't let him go, can you?"

Yuehua bit her lower lip tightly and was silent.

Shao Ziqing gently straightened her shoulder, frowned, and stared at her with extremely serious eyes: "Yuehua, do you really plan to stay here alone for the rest of your life, pretending that he is wasting his years in your heart?" ”

Yue Huase shrank his shoulders: "This is the path I chose myself, there is nothing to complain about." ”

"But you're being forced to do this! was forced into desperation by them, so he had to do it. ”

Shao Ziqing's eyebrows twisted into a pimple, the burning heat in her eyes poured unabashedly on Yuehua's face, and her hands secretly exerted force, making her a little painful.

The wine is getting stronger.

Yuehua smiled sadly: "Yuehua is just a country weed at best, and she has no ability to fight against fate, but she has the indifference of peace." I was powerless to change my fate, and I had to go with it.

I don't like the palace, but I can make myself fall in love with the emperor, love the house and the black, and enjoy the prosperity of that side; I am now disliked, but I enjoy this rare peace of mind, and it is also rare to have no need to cheat, intrigue, eat and drink, and be leisurely. ”

"You're a liar!" Shao Ziqing ruthlessly exposed her disguise: "Can you really let go of the past and be without desire, without desire, without contention?" So why are you always depressed? Always thinking about him? ”

"Some people can let go, but they don't have to forget."

"But you can't forget!"

Yuehua broke free of his hand and forced the little starlight in his eyes back to his eyes: "Has Lord Shao forgotten Yuehua's identity?" ”

"You Chu Yuehua is definitely not a person who is willing to be arranged by fate! This kind of life is not what you want. Chu Yuehua, you can deceive others, you can deceive yourself, you can't deceive me Shao Ziqing! ”

Shao Ziqing stood behind Yuehua and persuaded aggressively word by word: "Let's go, Yuehua, the end of the world, watch the lonely smoke of the desert, the sunset of the Yellow River, the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, you can do it anywhere, just don't stay here, bind yourself in the cocoon, if you don't want to break through, you can never transform into a butterfly." ”
