Chapter 144
"When you say that, I'm really interested." Ye Rui used his sword to pick up the chin of the fragrance of flowers, "Who the hell are you?" ”
"If I knew, would I still ask you?" Hua Xiang glanced at him, "If you help me once, I can promise you a condition." ”
"How do I know if your identity will help me? What use can I do for you if you are just a beggar on the streets, or an orphan without a father or mother? ”
Hua Xiang took a deep breath, "Judging from the charm in me, how can it not be something that ordinary people can have, right?" ”
"What? Have you been poisoned too? So, what is your relationship with Ye Feng? Ye Rui seemed to be really moved, picked up Huaxiang's wrist and looked at it carefully, and threw it down again, "Hmph, I'll believe you for the time being." It's best not to play any tricks on me. ”
He withdrew his sword and turned to sit down, "You can leave this charge uncharged." First of all, how do you want this king to help you? ”
Hua Xiang let out a breath, and the stone in her heart finally landed, "You don't have to help me much, just check it truthfully, instead of coping with it." ”
Ye Rui flipped through a pile of case records on the table and said: "The death of the little princess was due to the fact that her face was exposed to severe poison, and the poisonous powder entered her body with her breathing, causing her qi and blood to surge and suffocate to death. ”
"But did you find this poison in me? If not, what evidence can be used to determine that I did it? Hua Xiang is determined to clear her innocence, "On the contrary, if you go to search for Li'er's body, you will definitely be able to find clues from her." ”
Ye Rui nodded, "The king's people did find the powder left over from the poison from her. ”
"Then Li'er's previous testimony that I killed the princess is not true."
"But it's also possible that she was instructed by you, and that she was just helping you hide the poison." Ye Rui said.
"You don't need to worry about this." Hua Xiang said lightly, "You just need to act impartially and truthfully present our confession." ”
"Murong Yunyan, Rong Shizi, and Princess Qingning all want you to die, if I am fair and upright and disobey their will, how should I gain a foothold in the court in the future?"
"As a dignified son, if you dare to bend the law for personal gain, covet power and wealth, and murder people's lives, once it is exposed, how should you gain a foothold in the court and speak in front of your father in the future?" Hua Xiang said patiently, casually making up a lie, "On the contrary, let me live, it is the best proof of their crimes, you are equivalent to taking their handle, and you will come in handy in the future." And Beiqing Ci already knows the truth, if you are willing to help me, after he informs Brother Ye Feng, Ye Feng will look at you differently, and he will naturally give back to you. ”
Hua Xiang couldn't help but admire her nonsense skills. Ye Feng is still lying on the sickbed, giving him back a ghost.
Ye Rui narrowed his narrow eyes and flashed with fine light, "You girl, what you said makes some sense." ”
The fragrance of flowers felt a sense of danger for no reason. The person in front of him is cunning and unprofitable. Although they have formed a cooperative relationship temporarily, there is no guarantee that he will not defect one day, and it will be troublesome.
But the weight of Rong Aotian, Murong Yunyan, and Ye Qingning combined, may not be as heavy as Ye Feng and Beiqing. This is also why Ye Rui chose to let her go.
"And the conditions I promised you, as long as it is not murder and arson, you can ...... anything" Hua Xiang said timidly. She had to explain in advance that she had limited abilities and could not afford to do things that violated her principles.
"Just like you, this king doesn't expect you to kill people and set fires." Ye Rui said unhappily, "With your appearance, it is simply wishful thinking to make a promise with your body." ”
"That's good." Hana breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Rui was even more displeased, even if she killed people and set fires, wouldn't it be a thing for her to be glad if she didn't promise herself?
"You can send a few soldiers to guard in the dark, or directly ask the emperor to come over." Floral offer.
"Father doesn't have time to deal with your affairs right now. The country of flowers sent people to kiss him. Ye Rui said, "The two countries are at war, Yasukuni is obviously weak, and there have been assassinations of officials in the capital, which has caused panic. Baihua is planning to win with mental tactics. ”
"How could Baihua take the initiative to make peace?" At such a time, shouldn't you take advantage of the victory to pursue? Harmony is a sign of weakness, although it brings a short-term peace, but this is not like what a strong country will take the initiative to do.
"I don't know. But my father couldn't ask for it. Do you know who is going to marry a hundred flowers tomorrow? ”
Hua Xiang thought for a moment, and thought of the gentle and beautiful woman, "Yun Yun." ”
"That's right. Her father wanted to make her the lord of the county, so that she could marry on behalf of Yasukuni. ”
In fact, there are not no princesses who have reached the age of marriage, and Ye Ziyue is one. But the emperor has already made a marriage for Yun Yun and the Prince of Hundred Flowers, and the king has no jokes and cannot be changed. What's more, Ye Ziyue is quite favored, and the emperor can't bear to let his daughter marry Baihua far away, so it is logical to let Yun Yun replace her.
In the afternoon, the ethereal sound of music floated over the entire palace, solemn, solemn and cheerful. The words were recited in the mouth of the celebrants, and the sacred scriptures fluttered. Even in the prison, a trace of beautiful music can penetrate in, looming. It should be Yun Yun's sealing ceremony.
Hua Xiang can imagine that Yun Yun, who was dressed in gorgeous red, was kneeling on the red blanket, bowing to the emperor who was sitting on the golden chair on the high floor. The ceremonial officer, dressed in cyan or blue, slowly led her to worship the heavens. The eunuch of the inner court held a bright yellow silk silk and read the decree aloud. Two columns of civil and military officials knelt down and prostrated on the ground, congratulating in unison on the birth of a new lady of the sky.
But what Yun Yun thinks in his heart, will anyone know? Would she rather marry alone to the ends of the earth? Is she dissatisfied with her future husband?
Although they are far away, the fragrance of flowers can still deeply feel the vague helplessness and the bright and dark sadness in Yun Wan's heart.
The silence of the night wears away the time.
The iron door of the "squeak...... cell was pushed open, and the sound of decay and cracking echoed in the empty cell, which was particularly harsh.
It's Murong Yunyan again.
She looked haggard, her eyes were red, she shook Huaxiang's shoulders fiercely, and shouted, "What's wrong with Ye Feng!" Say it quickly! Don't play dead here! Why didn't he let me go to see him, not even the door of the house? ”
It turned out that he was hurt again.
"What are you doing badly, you have to frame me with such indiscriminate means. The little princess you killed is also his little sister, do you think he may forgive you? Hua Xiang tried her best to think of vicious words to stimulate her, "You are so ugly, it makes him feel disgusting, you are not qualified to defile his palace." ”
Murong Yunyan sat on the ground with a sad expression, muttering to himself, "No, it's impossible." He won't know ......"
"Do you remember what you did? If you don't want people to know, you can't do it unless you do. Hua Xiang said with a cold face.
Murong Yunyan is ruthless and fickle, but her weakness is also obvious, she is too obsessed with Ye Feng, so she also exposes her weakness.
Murong Yunyan laughed almost madly, and staggered to his feet, "Yes, that's right, what's wrong with what I did?" I bought off Li'er to let her do things for me, but that's because you're an idiot, and you can't even manage your own maid's heart, so you left a loophole for me to drill. What happened to the poison I concocted? I hate you, and I just want you to feel my pain! I have been sought after by thousands of people since I was a child, I abandoned those nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine people, humbly came to pray for the love of that person, but was swept away by that man's guards like a beggar, do you know the feeling of being unbearable? Murong Yunyan pinched Hua Xiang's shoulder fiercely, and cursed in a gaffe and resentment, "It's all because of you!" If it weren't for your presence, I wouldn't be so miserable. I can't wait to throw you into hell right now, and you won't be a human forever! You robbed my people, why can't I use the means to get them back? Why does he hate me, disgust me! ”
Hua Xiang looked at the woman in front of her who was crazy because of love, and her heart was mixed.
