Chapter 550: For Your Good
"Your Majesty, please give an order to punish your concubines, if you don't give an order, then ...... The concubines could not kneel for a long time. Crystal tears slid down the corners of Ye Anran's eyes, and no one could bear to look at it.
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty did not expect that at this moment, this key woman would be so knowledgeable and take into account the overall situation, even Ning Guogong had nothing to say.
The emperor looked at Ye Anran who was kneeling on the ground distressedly, and said softly: "Enran, why are you so troubled, why are you persecuting me?" ”
"Your Majesty, the concubines just don't want the emperor's reputation to be damaged, and they don't want the emperor's country to be innocently implicated. Ye Anran said, and his head fell to the ground.
The emperor only felt an incomparably painful heart......
Seeing this, Xigong Jue spoke: "Your Majesty, since even the noble man himself has realized his mistake, it is better for the emperor to put the noble man in the prison and wait for the fate." ”
Xigong Jue's mind turned quickly, he saw that the situation had come to this point, so naturally he couldn't excuse Ye Anran, it was better to find an excuse to lock Ye Anran up first.
Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother was not happy and retorted: "That can't be done, even if you are imprisoned in the prison, then you should give an explanation to the people outside the city gate first, otherwise how can they be easily pacified." ”
The emperor thought for a moment and slowly spoke: "Someone is coming." ”
"Yes." The guards immediately responded.
"Spread my word, but the noble man was at fault, pushed outside the noon gate, punished thirty boards in public, and then put him in the prison and waited for his fate." The emperor naturally understood what the queen mother meant.
I'm afraid that today, it is impossible to be safe and thoughtful in Baoye, the board is to be beaten, and it must be beaten openly, so that those people can see it clearly.
And the prison also has to be closed, because things have reached this point, and there is no way to end it.
"Yes." Then the guards dragged Ye Anran out.
Before leaving, Ye Anran smiled at the emperor, as if telling the emperor, don't worry about me.
The emperor couldn't bear to look at it, turned around, and shouted tears in his eyes, he felt for the first time that even if he was the emperor, there were times when he was helpless.
Even though he is the king of a country, he still can't protect the woman he loves, this feeling is really painful.
After Ye Anran left, the audience was silent......
Guo Yucheng just wanted to speak: "Your Majesty, ...... this matter?" ”
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the emperor's angry roar: "Shut up, you all shut up with me, now that Ye Anran has been disposed of by me, are you proud?" I don't understand, how can An Ran, a homeless woman, offend you when she enters the palace to serve me, and you still claim to be old ministers one by one, do you still take care of my family affairs in addition to the country? It's like An Ran, she has a hatred for killing your father and taking your wife, you all want her to die, but if she dies, what good do you have? ”
In the face of the emperor's roar, everyone didn't even dare to breathe, they knew that forcing the emperor to punish Ye Anran this time seemed to cut the emperor's heart, which really hurt him.
Otherwise, the emperor won't be mad easily......
"Your Majesty, you also extinguish the fire, and the ministers are all for your own good......?" At this time, except for the Queen Mother, no one seemed to be facing the wind.
The emperor turned his face away, and said unhappily: "Today's matter is over in the end, and it is as you wish, but noble, I am closed, and the punishment is also punished, if anyone dares to make a mistake and does not let her go, then just wait to be punished by the nine clans, the queen mother, I am tired, I want to rest, retreat." ”
Without waiting for the Queen Mother to speak, the emperor turned around and left......
The queen mother knows that the emperor is really angry with herself this time, and the grief is more than death, if he is not even too lazy to argue, then it will be really sad.
But even if he hurts his own son, it's better than watching him lose his mind because of a woman.
"Retreat." The Queen Mother turned around and waved her hand, and the ministers from all walks of life reacted.
Xigong Jue didn't say a word, and when he left the court, the civil and military officials also followed.
Outside the noon gate
A weak woman was pressed there like that, with the board behind her back, one after another, but she didn't even frown.
The people who were making trouble outside the city gate were also dumbfounded, and after the emperor gave the message, they all cheered so much that they couldn't wait to set off firecrackers to celebrate.
But when they really beat up this demon concubine in their mouths, they lost their previous joy.
Some are just the sympathy that an ordinary person should have, and that woman, just like that, was watched and tortured.
When each board fell, her back was dripping with blood, and those who watched it were shocked.
But she didn't open her mouth to argue for herself, nor did she cry out, let alone cry, just a pale face, a beautiful face, and a silent calm.
Every time the board fell, Xigong Jue felt a twitch in his heart, if he could, he really hoped that the person who was tortured was him, not An Ran.
Ye Anran raised his head, and suddenly smiled at the expression of pity and pity for the West Palace Jue, and the smile was very contemptuous.
She may be thinking in her heart, Xigong Jue, you are less pretending, if you really care about me, why did you poison my dearest sister and harm my Ye family?
Seeing Ye Anran's contemptuous smile, Xigong Jue didn't dare to look at it anymore, the more he looked at it, the more cold his heart became, but turned his head and left with difficulty.
In the crowd, it seemed that someone began to talk again.
Passerby A: "Actually...... This woman is not so hateful, and she has not done anything hurtful, isn't it just to deal with a few palace maids and eunuchs? In the harem, which lady has not punished her subordinates, and we don't need to do this. ”
Passerby B: "Yes, but the noble person can be regarded as a poor person, after marrying the prince of Ruian, he was demoted to a concubine, and now the Ye family is full of beheadings, she is a woman who is also helpless, and there is no way to enter the palace." ”
Passerby A: "Isn't it, the red face is thin, but I pity this woman's beautiful face, it looks sad." “
Passerby B: "This time, the emperor was forced to beat her under pressure, but I am afraid that if the thirty boards go down, she will already have her skin open." ”
Passerby A: "It's a trivial matter to open the skin and flesh, didn't the emperor order her to be imprisoned?" I'm afraid that there will be no entry or exit from the prison, and when the time comes, there will be more and less luck, and it seems that the last living mouth of the Ye family will also be lost. ”
In the crowd, there were gradually more such voices, and the hearts of the people were full of sympathy and pity for Ye Anran, and they all forgot about the demon concubine, and then after the execution was completed, the people dispersed.
Ye Anran was dragged into the prison by the guards......
A purple tulle was stained with blood, and it turned a dazzling red, which looked extremely terrifying.
Ye Anran lay in the prison, dying......
I don't know how long it took, when I heard a voice, Ye Anran raised his head, it turned out that the person who came in was Gonggong Zhu.
"Ran, are you okay?" Gonggong Zhu asked worriedly.
"I ...... It's okay. Ye Anran replied with difficulty.
