Chapter Twenty-Eight: Overboard and Conspiracy
Chapter Twenty-Eight: Overboard and Conspiracy
The prince stepped into the imperial study with a panicked face, and when he saw that the emperor was unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Father, you are fine, great." β
The emperor snorted coldly: "Is the emperor worried about me, or is he worried about them?" The Emperor stretched out his hand and pointed at the dead assassin on the ground.
The prince's face changed, it was a kind of pain of misunderstanding: "Father thinks that the assassin was sent by a child? β
The emperor kept a calm face and remained silent. The prince pointed at Leng Yue and said sharply, "Is it this woman?" She is a demon girl, and she is grounded by the queen mother, and she flatters her father and the emperor......"
"Shut up, the concubine came because she was worried about me, and she never said a bad word about you after seeing me." The emperor was even more angry.
Leng Yue looked at the crown prince, and the way he looked at her was no longer completely possessive, but more hateful.
Leng Yue was sure that the assassin was not sent by the crown prince, so who was it? Who wants to kill the emperor? Could it be...... She? She did have this motive, but at this juncture, would she really do that?
Leng Yue didn't want to watch the quarrel between the father and son, so she made an excuse and returned to Huiyue Palace with a sad heart.
The loneliness of the night made Leng Yue toss and turn and couldn't sleep, missing, scurrying around her body like a mad dog, gnawing at her flesh and bones. Lin Wenlang, Lin Wenlang, why did you die? There are so many people around the emperor, why are you the ......
Leng Yue really couldn't lie down, and tears had soaked the pillow. She got up and went to the courtyard, looking at the night sky in a daze. Suddenly, she found that the palace door was open, and a dark shadow flashed outside the door, and Leng Yue hurriedly chased it out.
Leng Yue chased all the way to the pool where Xing'er drowned, but the black shadow was gone. Leng Yue was startled, and she turned around and wanted to run back to Huiyue Palace, but it was too late, a big hand quickly covered her mouth and nose from behind, a sweet fragrance rushed in, and her brain suddenly became confused, and even her body being pushed into the cold water did not make her sober, the only feeling was ...... Dark...... Cold......
Leng Yue thought she was going to die, but she didn't, she woke up weak and had a high fever......
"Mother, you're awake. Fortunately, Ling Tong will be able to swim in the water, otherwise Niangniang ......" Ruyi's joyful voice sounded in his ears.
Ling Tian? By the way, if Nian Jiuling went out of the palace to do errands, Ling Tian would definitely protect her in secret.
"Commander Ling said that because of the first aid mother, the traitor was not caught, and he had already gone to investigate." Ruyi said while helping Leng Yue up.
Ruyi poured Leng Yue a cup of tea and said: "There have been so many changes in these days, and Niangniang is almost alone. When you're out late at night, why don't you be careful? How much hard work have you gone through along the way? If something happens to you at this juncture, wouldn't it be in vain? There is also the king of pity, and the old man Long will naturally not be aggrieved, but how to repay Concubine Lan's revenge? β
Leng Yue asked in surprise: "Ruyi, when did you become so chewy?" β
Ruyi lowered his face coldly and said: "Niangniang, although Ruyi has not been in the palace for a long time, she has also experienced a lot, if she hadn't followed Niangniang, I'm afraid she would have died here a long time ago." Empress...... Ruyi has grown up, and he can't always live under the wings of his mother. From now on, the slave will enter this inner temple to serve the mother, and we will face any hardships and hardships together, and if necessary, the slave will be the death of the mother. β
Leng Yue looked at Ruyi in shock, his slightly immature face showed the vicissitudes and maturity that did not match his age, and those eyes were as solid as a rock! Yes, Ruyi, who she has always protected, has grown up......
"The emperor has arrivedβ" Grandpa Ruan's voice came from outside.
Leng Yue barely supported himself and stood at the head of the bed, the emperor's face was very bad, and he didn't step forward to help Leng Yue up when he entered the door, but just glanced at it lightly and said, "Get up." β
Leng Yue saw that the emperor was followed by Concubine Lin, and she was slightly uneasy for a moment. Seeing the slight sneer that the corners of Concubine Lin's mouth refused to hide, the uneasiness suddenly expanded rapidly. The heart also cooled with her smile.
After seeing the ceremony, Concubine Lin said hypocritically and softly: "I heard that Sister Guifei fell into the water, so the emperor was in a hurry to come over to see Sister Guifei." Commander Ling just grabbed the person who pushed you into the water, please take a look at the concubine sister to see if it is or not? β
Leng Yue was suspicious, and a person dressed in military general clothes was taken to the emperor's feet.
Concubine Lin said: "Sister Guifei, this slave said that you have been secretly in love with him for a long time, and you and he were in love for three lives when you were a palace maid - I don't know if there is such a thing?" β
Leng Yue was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "How can there be such a miracle? Your Majesty, the concubines have never seen this person. Please don't believe this minion's nonsense. β
The man squinted at Leng Yue and said, "Guifei Niangniang, how did you swear an oath with the slave mountain when you were the daughter of the palace?" You must be complaining in your heart that I pushed you into the water. If you hadn't promised the slave three lives, and gave the slave a lot of money, how could the slave buy the killer to intercept and kill the emperor? Didn't you say that as long as the emperor died, you could control the government and become the empress? It is even said that these rivers and mountains belong to our unborn children. You asked the slave to meet by the pool in the middle of the night, but I didn't expect you to kill the slave, so I accidentally pushed you into the pool, and the slave died not a pity, just want to ask the mother, can you bear to kill the child's father with your own hands? β
He spoke eloquently and clearly, and even Leng Yue, a criminal policeman, couldn't find a flaw.
Leng Yue peeked at Concubine Lin, the corners of her mouth were even more curved, it turned out that Concubine Lin was planning a chain. first found someone to push her into the water, trying to create the illusion that she had lost her footing and drowned, and seeing that she was not dead, he made a second move. Send out the dead and trap her for injustice. Buying a murderer to assassinate the emperor is the first crime, committing adultery with the military general, and secretly connotating the second crime, and coveting the holy dragon Jiangshan is the third crime. The three sins are one, and Leng Yue will die without a place to be buried.
Leng Yue is still in a complete body, and the fetus in her womb is also fake, but Leng Yue can't say that this dumb person is up to her. At this time, she must be calm, if she makes a mistake, she will lose the whole game.
Leng Yue said calmly: "Since you said that you swore an alliance with me, then do you know my privacy?" β
Unexpectedly, the military general knew everything about Leng Yue, including her birthday, time of entering the palace, hobbies, and even how many scars she had on her body.
Leng Yue's heart sank steeply. It seems that Concubine Lin has worked hard this time - to defeat herself, she is determined to win.
Seeing that Leng Yue was silent, the emperor began to frown. After taking a sip of tea, he said slowly: "Concubine, I am waiting for you to explain." β
Leng Yue couldn't hear the anger in his voice, Leng Yue decided to gamble once, looked at him and said, "Your Majesty, you know that the concubine has brought out a red birthmark from her mother's womb since she was a child. Therefore, the concubine now wants to ask him which side of the birthmark of this concubine is long? "The people who have seen their bodies are people who absolutely trust, and if that person can really answer, then the traitors are the ones around them. She's gambling their loyalty, but it's her own life.
