Chapter 86: Liang Ruoxue's death
Gritting his teeth, Shu Yiling pretended to be deeply sympathetic, and said: "It's okay to speak for you, but whether my father will listen or not, then I don't dare to say it." If you want me to say, you should also think of your own way, such as letting Princess Lanling enter the palace and begging Liang Meiren for mercy. You also know that even if you have nothing to do with Liang Ruoxue's death, as long as Liang Meiren thinks that there is, the result will be very unfavorable to you. ”
Nangong Jingchen made a serious thought appearance, and then said quite approvingly: "Indeed, women communicate better with each other, sometimes if we can't say it, it will be much more convenient for women to communicate in private." ”
Seeing that Nangong Jingchen showed signs of loosening, Su Yiling's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he took advantage of the victory and said: "Since King Ling also agrees with this idea, it is better to ...... it tomorrow."
"Oops," Before Su Yiling finished speaking, Nangong Jingchen slapped his head suddenly, pretending to have a suddenly realized expression, "Look at my memory, I only remembered when I mentioned the princess, tomorrow is the day when we get married for half a year, we have to celebrate, let's wait a few days!" King Ling came from the capital, I didn't have a good treat last time, this time I came to Lanling, I must do my landlord's friendship! As he spoke, Nangong Jingchen slapped his palms, and then two clever servants stood behind Shu Yiling, and followed suit with Su Yiling.
"No, I'm not here to ......"
"Why are you still standing stupidly, don't you wait soon! First take the prince to visit the famous lotus pond in our Lanling, the lotus seeds at this time are the most delicious, and then go to the Wuxiang Academy to see, there is the largest brush in Kyushu, quite novel. In short, if you can't accompany King Ling to have fun, I'll ask for you! ”
"Yes!" The little guys replied in unison, and then left and right, holding Su Yiling and leaving half-dragged and half-dragged.
After Shu Yiling left unwillingly, Bai Lilan walked out from behind the screen and said in a cold voice: "Hmph, I really came up with something." ”
"It's just not good news!" Nangong Jingchen threw the bloodstained handkerchief to the ground, frowned and said, "How could Liang Ruoxue die?" It stands to reason that after returning to the capital, the effect of the medicine should disappear, and she will return to normal, how could she stumble and fall into the river? ”
"That's not easy, because someone wants her dead!"
Nangong Jingchen frowned slightly, and said, "You mean, Liang Meiren killed Liang Ruoxue?" No, Liang Ruoxue is also her sister no matter what she says, so she shouldn't be able to slash her relatives. ”
Baili Lan snorted coldly and said, "It is said that there is no poison and no husband, and women are ruthless, and they are not far behind." Besides, it can be seen from Liang Meiren's marriage of her sister to Lanling that Liang Meiren is not ambitious, but also ruthless enough. Since it is hopeless to cling to Lanling, and Liang Meiren has noticed that the Emperor of Beining has already moved her mind about Lanling, she naturally wants to use it as the sister of the abandoned son to completely break with Lanling, so as to become a bargaining chip for her to find the next follower. ”
Following what Baili Lan said, Nangong Jingchen rubbed his chin and said, "This woman's heart is really ruthless. But Emperor Beining is not stupid, he will be willingly used by that woman? ”
"This is a mutually beneficial matter for both sides, why should the Emperor of Bac Ninh refuse?" Baili Lan sneered and said, "The Beining Emperor came to attack Lanling in two ways, one bright and one dark, and Liang Ruoxue's death was that clear road. It is estimated that it will not be long before Emperor Beining will announce me to the palace by investigating the cause of Liang Ruoxue's death. If you agree, I will control your bargaining chips, if you do not agree, it will be a blatant disobedience to the emperor's orders, and the emperor of Bac Ninh can send troops to attack Lanling and capture you, a rebel. ”
"Hmm, if Emperor Beining really does this, it will be really difficult to deal with."
"What's so hard about that! The Emperor of Bac Ninh will make excuses, and we can follow suit. announced the death of the old princess, and took this opportunity to make trouble and put the first army of the emperor of Bac Ninh. At that time, Lanling will be able to unite the virtuous people in the world, and wave the army north under the banner of eliminating the faint king! ”
According to what Bai Lilan said, Nangong Jingchen thought for a long time, and said with a sad face: "The mother concubine has been dead for many years, and I really don't want to bother her old man because of this, can't we have any other way?" ”
Bai Lilan sneered and said contemptuously: "When your mother died, did Emperor Beining control what means he used to violate her?" And it's ridiculous that you are now thinking about these things instead of saving you! If you are really kind, then you can endure this matter, or obediently offer Lanling both hands, and everyone will be happy! ”
Seeing that Baili Lan was angry, Nangong Jingchen hurriedly patted her on the shoulder, and said with a flattering smile: "Let's not discuss it now, let's see if there is a better way to deal with Emperor Beining, and it is not to retreat, Lan'er should not be angry." ”
"Revenge is your own business, what am I angry about." Shaking off Nangong Jingchen's palm, Bai Lilan put her hands around her chest, and said indifferently, "Please remember, you are going to take revenge, the death of the enemy is your victory, and your mercy can only kill yourself and the people around you!" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Lilan suddenly felt dizzy and couldn't move when she stood there. Nangong Jingchen noticed Baili Lan's strange appearance, hurriedly slid his wheelchair over, held her arm, and asked in horror: "Lan'er, what's wrong with you, is there something uncomfortable?" ”
Bai Lilan frowned and shook her head, barely opened her eyes, and said in a low voice: "I'm fine, maybe I haven't had a good rest these days, and I'm a little dizzy." ”
Hearing this, Nangong Jingchen blamed himself and said: "It's all my fault, I haven't taken good care of you during this time, and I want you to work hard for me." I'll send you back to your room to rest first, and then I'll order He Che to find a doctor for you. ”
Bai Lilan shook her hand, and after taking a few breaths of relief, her eyes regained clarity and said, "It's all a little problem, it's okay to rest for one night, you don't need to find a doctor." But you, you need to strengthen your recovery training and get back up before the incident to cheer up the army, you know? ”
Seeing Baili Lan's tired appearance, still working for herself, Nangong Jingchen felt extremely distressed, and at the same time secretly swore in his heart that he would let Bai Li Lan enjoy the most honorable glory in the world!
As Baili Lan expected, within ten days, a message was sent from the capital, claiming to investigate Liang Ruoxue's death, and ordering Bai Lilan to go to the capital to cooperate with the investigation.
Because he had received the news from Shu Yiling before, the Lanling Royal Mansion did not mess up, but used the excuse that Baili Lan had not recovered from his serious illness and could not travel long distances for the time being, and implored the Emperor of Beining to send an envoy to Lanling to investigate the case.
Upon hearing this news, the Emperor of Bac Ninh was furious, but because Baili Lan had indeed suffered from the plague and was weak, the Emperor of Bac Ninh had nothing to do. In order to gain a good reputation, the Emperor of Beining had no choice but to order Su Yiling to continue to stay in Lanling to find evidence of Liang Ruoxue's "murder" in Beining.
During this time, Su Yiling's days in Beining are really worse than death, every day by two little guys half dragged and half dragged through the streets and alleys of Lanling, forced sightseeing, and irregular consumption, every day tired half to death not to say, can not refuse, because as long as Shu Yiling shows a discanny look, the two little guys will report to Nangong Jingchen, and then the sightseeing incident will evolve into a political hostile issue, so that Shu Yiling can't cry or laugh, thinking that there is nothing to do every day anyway, and it is good to carefully observe the geographical location of Lanling, so that he will know when he captures Lanling in the future.
Although he comforted himself like this, but every day from sunrise to sunset, Su Yiling was still miserable, and when he learned that he was ordered by the emperor to investigate Baililan, he was almost happy to cheer. With the excuse to investigate the case, not only can he get close to Baili Lan, but it will also be convenient for him to frame Nangong Jingchen at any time and treat him for murder!
Without those two little guys around her, Shu Yiling felt that the air around her was fresh, and she came to Lanling Wangfu with brisk steps. Su Yiling waited for Baili Lan in the living room, thinking that she could get along with Bai Lilan day and night through the introduction of the investigation, and she felt a burst of enthusiasm.
"Lord Ling!"
Shu Yiling was fantasizing about how to coax Baili Lan into his hands when he heard someone calling him behind him. Turning to look at the maid in Tsing Yi behind her, Shu Yiling asked, "Where is your county lord?" ”
"The county lord is drinking tea in the back garden, and I invite you to go with me."
It just so happened that Su Yiling was thirsty and thought that drinking tea with the beauty was also a good thing, so he happily went with him. Standing outside the flower garden, Shu Yiling looked at Bai Lilan, who was wearing a white dress, leaning on the reclining chair, her face was quiet, and her beautiful face seemed to be able to shine under the sun.
"Lord Wang?" Chunfeng took a few steps ahead, and found that Shu Yiling had not followed, and turned to look at him with a suspicious face.
Hearing the conversation outside, Baili Lan looked sideways and found the figure of Su Yiling, and couldn't help but smile at him. It was this smile with the wind, which shocked Su Yiling's mood to stir, and his eyes were full of strong possessiveness.
"It turned out to be King Ling," slowly stood up from the recliner, Bai Lilan looked at Shu Yiling and said, "But I haven't seen him for a few days, and King Ling seems to have lost a lot of weight." ”
Every day from morning to night, I can't even drink saliva, and it's hard to lose weight!
Although she complained in her heart, Shu Yiling did not show these expressions on her face, and said politely: "I'm sorry for disturbing the princess's Yaxing." ”
"There is no such thing as Yaxing, it's just a vassal elegance." Bai Lilan pointed to the seat opposite and said, "King Ling, please take a seat." Recently, the Lanling Palace's mansion is in an eventful autumn, and there are still many places to trouble King Ling. Then, I will replace the wine with tea, and first toast the prince with a cup. After finishing speaking, Baili Lan raised the teacup in front of her and drank it all in one gulp.
Staring straight at Baili Lan, Su Yiling seemed to want to see something in her eyes, but Bai Lilan's smile was bright and clear, and it was impossible to blaspheme. The corners of her mouth were hooked, and Su Yiling drank the tea handed over by Baili Lan, and said in a light tone: "You have changed a lot." ”
"Have I changed?" Stretching out her hand to pour tea for Su Yiling, Bai Lilan smiled, "But why didn't I find out, it can't be that King Ling misunderstood something." I didn't have much contact with King Ling before, and King Ling didn't know much about me, so I had such an illusion. ”
