Chapter 124: What About the Lonely Woman?
Sikong Yanfei first went back to the dormitory to bathe and change clothes.
The Magi soon received news that the king was to summon them to the council chamber.
But the king wants to ask Mrs. Yue about it? Still is...... Discuss military affairs?
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and they all feel bottomless in their hearts.
However, since the Lady of the Moon has died, and the King has returned safely, it shows that the signs of the "Moon Calamity" have indeed worked, and they can only comfort themselves like this.
Sikong Yan strode into the courtyard, with a joy and expectation in his steps that even he could not have expected.
He had escaped death before, but for him the dormitory was just an ordinary place for him to rest, no matter where he was, he could sleep peacefully.
This time, however, he realized that something had changed, and he promised a cunning little woman that he would return.
After so many days without hearing from him, would she be in a hurry?
As soon as she sees him, she will definitely show her pitiful face again, or really hug him and cry non-stop......
Pushing open the door of the dormitory, there were maids on both sides who had already heard the news and rushed to serve.
Sikong Yan glanced around, cold and deserted.
Something seems wrong......
After taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped.
"King, do you want to take a bath?" The maid asked in a low voice.
"Yes." Sikong Yanfei replied, but his eyes fell on the couch by the window.
In the past, every night Hanyue would lie there after bathing to cool off, and the fans were often thrown everywhere by her.
Now the couch is empty.
"Where's the moon?" Sikong Yanfei took off his dusty cloak outside.
The maids all bowed their heads and remained silent.
"Lonely questioning!" Sikong Yanfei couldn't help but raise his voice.
The maids knelt on the ground in panic, "Yue...... Lady Yue's body was taken away by Zhong Rangong, and he said that he could not tolerate the insult of his body......"
Sikong Yan's body stiffened, and the clothes in his hand fell to the ground.
"Corpses? …… Whose body? ”
"Mrs. Moon's." The maids' heads were buried even lower.
Sikong Yan stood there dumbfounded, forgetting to breathe for a few breaths.
It wasn't his hallucination, he heard it right, the cunning and beautiful little woman...... Actually dead?
He rushed back in the dust, and even when he was calculated by the city lord of Maocheng and trapped in the city and could not get out, he never forgot his agreement with her.
Wait for him to come back, wait for him to come back!
Unexpectedly, but in the end, it was she who didn't keep the agreement......
"King!"
He heard the exclamations of the maids beside him.
When he came back to his senses, he found himself slumped on the ground.
Several attendants came over to help him up, but they didn't succeed, Sikong Yanfei's legs seemed to have suddenly lost their strength, and they couldn't use their strength at all.
"Go and call the doctor!" I don't know who shouted.
"Come back." Sikong Yan snorted.
The people had to stand there honestly and wait for the dispatch.
Sikong Yanfei took a while before he stood up and slowly moved to the couch on the side.
"All out." He said coldly, in a completely unquestionable tone.
No one dared to say anything, and the subordinates all quietly retreated.
Sikong Yan sat there dumbfounded, smiling suddenly.
The laughter was low but a little bitter.
It's just a beautiful woman, he hasn't done a big thing, how can he be greedy for women and make mistakes.
That's right, there are so many women in the world, even if one dies, as long as he wants it, there is not as much beauty as he wants.
Thinking of this, he let out a long sigh of relief and got up and went to the clean room.
Happily cleaning the dust off his body, he also had to go to discuss with the sages.
As he put on his robe again, he caught a glimpse of a woman's plain satin tunic hanging from a nearby shelf.
For a moment, it was as if something heavy had fallen on his heart, making him breathless.
He reached out and took the tunic off.
He knew it, and sometimes in the evenings when he was happy with her, she wore it, its white garment shining silver in the moonlight, and the red mole between her brows added to her strange beauty.
How could he forget......
There was a faint fishy sweetness in his body.
Front yard, chamber.
Everyone sat there quietly, and waited for almost an hour before they saw that their king was late.
Sikong Yan's face turned pale, and he walked through everyone to the top position and sat down.
Everyone bowed down and saluted, but after waiting for a long time, they didn't see Sikong Yan speak.
Without the permission of the king, no one dared to raise his head without permission.
But this posture of saluting is really tiring, lowering your head and pouting your buttocks, and after a while, someone's head will be sweaty.
Finally, Sikong Yan's voice came from his head, stiff as if with ice ballast: "Who can tell Lonely, when Lone's life and death are uncertain, who forced Lone's woman to death." ”
As soon as these words fell, a chill ran behind the backs of everyone present.
Someone raised his head with courage and peeked at Sikong Yanfei sitting on it.
In the dim light, Sikong Yan half-hung starry eyes, and his thick eyelashes cast a shadow in the light.
Everyone knows that he loves the concubine, but for a noble man, the concubine cannot be regarded as his wife, so even if he loses his favored concubine, the man will not make a big deal about it, let alone question everyone.
Because admitting that he dotes on his concubine is a very humiliating thing.
So someone told me about the fire that hit the house before.
The sages defended: "The moon calamity is a warning from the sky, and we have to let him move to the old courtyard to live in order to ensure the safe return of the king. ”
In other words, they are not wrong at all.
Sikong Yanfei sneered.
Everyone looked up, the corners of Sikong Yan's lips were pursed, and the two hands placed on his knees were slowly clasped together, and then opened...... Then close it again...... The joints rattle.
"King! We had to do it for the sake of the king, and it was our luck that the king could return safely! ”
"So there's nothing wrong with you?" Sikong Yan looked around at everyone.
"The one who harmed Mrs. Yue is Princess Puyang, and she does not abide by women's morals, has an affair with the prince of the Yichang Marquis Mansion, and is bumped into by everyone, and now she is being sent by the king in the courtyard!"
"Princess Puyang and Qin Zhengjing?" Seeing Sikong Yan's surprised look, someone immediately told him about the events of that night.
In the end, someone said: "It must be that Princess Puyang is afraid that the matter will be revealed, so she wants to escape, so she seduced the prince of Yichang Houfu, such a bad woman is really a shame for the king, and I hope the king will be punished strictly!" ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone looked at Sikong Yanfei awkwardly, as if waiting for him to fall.
Sikong Yanfei suddenly burst out laughing.
The laughter was shrill and piercing, and the eardrums of the people were painful.
The most frightening thing is that although Sikong Yanfei is smiling at this moment, there is not even a trace of a smile on his face.
