Chapter 286: Stealing Beams and Changing Pillars
"I didn't drink any medicine."
"You're back...... Sister Qige, is Sister Qige also back? I'm going to see her......"
The quiet side hall, the abrupt dialogue seems to be a little inexplicable, the two people who talk are lying on the bed, the other is standing on the side of the bed, one looks evasive, and the other looks calm.
In the face of Su Yan's stubbornness with softness and hardness, Su Buqi was helpless or helpless. Seeing that her clothes were thin and loose, it was obvious that she had lost a lot of weight during the time he was away, but Su Yan asked not him, but the woman who was favored by a group of people and stars.
"She went to the Emperor's side." Picked up the medicine bowl on the table and touched it, it was cold, Su Buqi squinted slightly, Su Yan was uncomfortable with him, and lowered his head half-weakly.
"Drinking this medicine makes my body more uncomfortable, so I put it there." Su Yan explained weakly, and two crimsons gradually swelled up on his face. During the time that Bai Qige went to the south, Su Yan had been sick, and the wind and cold came and went, and it never got better, most of which were caused by worry, and the rest were the reasons why even she was ashamed to say it.
I miss someone, and I don't think about tea and dinner.
Suddenly there was silence as always, and the two men who were not good at words wanted to speak but did not want to speak, and even the caged birds outside the room were anxious for them, chirping. In the end, Su Buqi opened his mouth first, and his tone was so flat that what he said was a very ordinary thing: "Is the prince here?" I'm going to ask for someone. ”
Su Yan was already prone to blush when she was with him, and when she heard the word "important person", she immediately remembered that Su Buqi had said that she would take her out of the palace before leaving, her face was even more red like blood, her head hung lower, and she spoke incoherently with her lips.
"Your Highness is here, you ...... You'd better not go...... It's not good now, it's all messed up......"
There was no refusal in these words, and although the voice was soft, it made Su Buqi rarely show a faint smile. Su Yan finally mustered up the courage to look up, and when she saw him looking at her and smiling, she forgot what she wanted to say for a moment, and only remembered the gentle expression on her delicate face that was enough to make heaven and earth lose color, and at the same time, she was also sluggishly surprised that the man who always thought about her was so good-looking, and she was so beautiful from Su Jinyan.
Such a perfect person, why do you love her?
Full of doubts was interrupted by messy and hurried footsteps, the smile on Su Buqi's face was like a flash in the pan, fleeting, and when Su Yan hurriedly pushed him to signal to leave, the shocking face had returned to its usual indifference.
In order to facilitate the meeting between the two, Bai Qige specially arranged for Yu Che to take care of Su Yan, but the footsteps outside were obviously not Yu Che, if it was someone else, Su Buqi should naturally avoid it.
Yu Che anxiously pushed Su Buqi again, but Su Buqi didn't move or move, as if he didn't care who was coming, but instead grabbed Su Yan's hand and held it tightly in his palm.
What he meant was that sometimes things should be put on the bright side, and there was no need to hide them.
"Su Yan, Su Yan, it's not good," the figure who broke into the room and exclaimed abruptly stopped at the moment he saw Su Buqi, and Jin Zhaoyi, who was out of breath, was stunned at the door, and it took a long time to react, "Su Gongzi." ”
Seeing that it was Jin Zhaoyi, Su Yan somewhat lowered half of her heart, withdrew her hand shyly, and her face was slightly red: "Why is Sister Jiang so anxious." ”
A sentence woke up the stunned Jin Zhaoyi, her eyes were red, and she couldn't cry when she landed.
"Your Majesty...... The emperor has issued an order to execute Sister Qige,"
The heart that had just been warmed was frozen instantly, and the shy expression was frozen on his face before it faded, Su Yan stiffly stretched out his hand, subconsciously grabbed Su Buqi's sleeve, and moved his lips, but his voice couldn't come out, only tears flowed silently on his face.
The woman she envied and longed for, after all, couldn't escape her life.
"Where to go." Sensing that Su Yan was trying to move his body and wanted to get out of bed, Su Buqi frowned slightly.
"Queen, now only the queen mother can save Qige......" Su Yan struggled out of bed, her weak body was shaky, but fortunately, Su Buqi and Jin Zhaoyi supported her.
Jin Zhaoyi probably guessed what she was going to do so she didn't stop her, and the expression on her face was a little similar: "This matter can't let the prince force his head anymore, the ban is still there, and if he leaves the East Palace, it will be against the emperor's order, and it will not be Sister Qige who will be punished at that time." Jin Zhaoyi's courage in the critical situation was even better than Su Yan's, wiped away her tears, and held Su Yan's hand a little harder: "Su Yan, the queen mother has always liked you, the two of us will go to beg her together, until the queen mother agrees to plead with the emperor,"
Su Yan nodded, the two of them just wanted to leave, but they were blocked by Su Buqi: "She's still sick." ”
Su Yan, who was originally pulling, was snatched away by Su Bu without a trace, Jin Zhaoyi had no idea for a while, although she saw that there seemed to be affection between the two of them, she still couldn't help but ask Su Yan for help, after all, it was a matter of Bai Qige's life and death, and it would be a little selfish to drag on the relationship between children and daughters at this time.
"I have to try, I can't watch His Highness and Sister Qige suffer." The feeling of being protected behind Su Yan is the first time to feel it, stable, warm, and greedy. However, she knew that she didn't have time to enjoy it for a moment, so she gently pushed Su Buqi's back, pleading, and like coaxing: "You...... When I get back, I'll give you an explanation. ”
Whether to continue to be silent and die alone in the deep palace, or to turn her back on Yi Chenjing's identity as the wife of the side room and go away to the end of the world with Su Buqi, she understands that one day she will have to make a choice.
The news that Ye Huawan cried and brought back to the East Palace shocked everyone, and an hour later, the official imperial decree spread throughout the palace, causing another uproar. Knowing that Emperor Yao not only did not listen to Bai Qige's explanation, but directly issued a killing order, Yi Chenjing was furious and overturned the book case and was about to break into Ziyun Palace, but fortunately, Fu Chu was still sober-minded, and asked the war court to knock Yi Chenjing, who was like a crazy lion, unconscious, as soon as possible, otherwise he would not be able to escape the charge of disobeying the holy decree.
"Didn't His Highness always suspect that the emperor was coerced to make these decisions. Since we are suspicious, we should be more cautious, now we can't see the emperor, we don't know what the situation is in the Ziyun Palace, and His Royal Highness's rash intrusion can't solve the problem at all. In case the situation of the emperor being coerced is true, in desperation, he issued another holy decree saying that Your Highness, you have disobeyed the holy will, and the result will only be that you can't save Sister Bai but put yourself in the trap, whether it is good or bad, Your Highness, take a good look at it,"
After listening to Fu Chu's persuasion, Yi Chenjing, who only woke up at night, didn't say a word for a long time, and his dejected aura and silence were almost unrecognizable, this was the prince general who was on the battlefield in the past and shining brightly.
The battlefield is ruthless, he can point to the world with a sword, and stop killing with killing; In the struggle for power, he was constrained everywhere and was powerless.
After a long time, a wry smile was weak: "Now." I can only wait for Qige to ask for a cut. Breaking into the Purple Cloud Palace is against the holy will, and if you don't break in, you will sit back and wait, and now I hope that Ye Zi really robbed Qige that day, and the farther away the better, and never return to this place for the rest of my life. ”
"Didn't Lady Su Yan and Jin Zhaoyi already go to see the Queen Mother? As long as the queen is willing to come forward to intercede for Sister Qige, the emperor will not allow it, no matter what, Sister Bai is a member of the harem, even if she wants to be punished, it should be decided by the queen who is the head of the six palaces. Although he knew that there was little hope, Fu Chu still tried his best to comfort Yi Chenjing, "Now His Royal Highness must be as stable as Mount Tai, whether it is a conspiracy or the emperor insists on going his own way, Sister Bai has already committed the dragon's anger, and His Royal Highness must not add fuel to the fire again." Didn't the emperor set a date for execution? Then before that, we still have time and opportunity to think of a way, His Royal Highness is most concerned about Sister Bai, so he is also the person who should cheer up the most, if even His Highness gives up, then Sister Bai will really have no power to return to the sky. ”
Yi Chenjing was still a little depressed, but his anxiety and anger were greatly reduced under Fu Chu's guidance, and when he closed his eyes, his mind was full of Bai Qige's shadow, and he smiled and smiled, lingering.
"Your Highness," Yu Che suddenly pushed the door in, and looked out of the door cautiously, "Gonggong Tao has something to say to you." ”
Grandpa Tao. How could the people around Emperor Yao come to him at this time. Yi Chenjing barely cheered up and waved his hand: "Please." ”
The door opened and closed, but it was not only Gonggong Tao who came in, but also the little eunuch that Yi Chenjing had arranged in Ziyun Palace before. Fu Chu and the others avoided suspicion and wanted to leave, but Gonggong Tao hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop the people: "A few people stay, and the things that the slave wants to say still need a few help." ”
Fu Chu and the others looked at each other, no one knew what kind of medicine was bought in Gonggong Tao's gourd, and sat down nervously, but saw that the little eunuch took off his coat neatly and handed it to Yi Chenjing with both hands.
"Father-in-law Tao, this is ......." Yi Chenjing was quite surprised and looked at Gonggong Tao in confusion.
"Time is pressing, and the minion is long and short." Grabbing the tea on the table and raising his head to drink it all, Gonggong Tao took a deep breath and looked at Yi Chenjing with deep meaning, "The slave has followed the emperor for more than 20 years, and he knows everything about the emperor, not to mention everything. Recently, the emperor's every move is really strange, although the slave can see the emperor sitting in the palace every day, but he always feels that there is something wrong, as if ...... It's as if that person is not the emperor, but someone else. ”
What Gonggong Tao said coincided with Yi Chenjing's previous speculation, and he glanced at Fu Chu, Yi Chenjing frowned and asked, "Did Gonggong Tao see his father with his own eyes?" Is it possible that someone is pretending, or that the father was coerced by someone. ”
"The slave saw the emperor with his own eyes, not only did he see it, but even those holy decrees were conveyed by listening to the emperor's orders with his own ears." Gonggong Tao shook his head and took out a scroll of holy decrees from his sleeve, "Your Highness, look at it, this is indeed the emperor's handwriting, and it shouldn't be fake." ”
The old eunuch who had served for many years couldn't see that there was a problem, and what could he, a son who had an estranged relationship, see. Yi Chenjing didn't go through the holy decree, and his tone was a little impatient: "Since my father doesn't have any questions, what is the matter with Gonggong Tao." Is it related to Qige. ”
Gonggong Tao took the coat from the little eunuch's hand, stepped forward and handed it to Yi Chenjing, and before he could speak, the little eunuch behind him couldn't help but speak first.
"Your Royal Highness, Gonggong Tao thinks that Princess Qi'an has been wronged, so he specially called the slave to want to 'steal the beam and change the pillar', Gonggong Tao has already taken care of it over there, and before tomorrow morning, the slave will pretend to be the prince in the East Palace for one night, and His Royal Highness will hurry up and meet with Princess Qi'an."
