Chapter Eighty-Eight: Surprise
As the twilight receded, the moon began to dim, and the cold and incomparable haze blue appeared on the horizon like a rendered canvas, as if connected with the secluded lake.
All night, they searched all night, but they still couldn't find Yu Xuanji's body.
Everyone thought that Yu Xuanji was dead, and the old prince also fell ill because of this, claiming that he wanted to see people alive and corpses when he died. Mo Chuye even sent more people to search, and even the dark river outside the city had guards who searched sleeplessly, but she seemed to have evaporated, and she couldn't find any traces.
If Yu Wanyin still thought that Yu Xuanji was hiding and preparing to fight back, now she is very sure that Yu Xuanji is dead, Shili Ping Lake has been searched, and the dark river is turbulent, and Yu Xuanji will not be able to wash water, and her body may not have been washed away by the current.
"Fourth sister, do you say that the third sister is still alive?" Yu Haotian's long, dark eyes looked straight at the turbulent water of the dark river, and asked meaningfully.
In fact, Yu Wanyin didn't want Yu Xuanji to die, because if Yu Xuanji died, there would be no one to deal with the Sun family, but that would be the general trend, if she didn't say that, maybe the people who died now would be her and Yu Xuanji.
Although Yu Haotian looks young, compared to the means, he is also worthy of himself.
"This water is a little faster, the third sister must be very cold!" Yu Wanyin lowered her eyes and said, although she stayed up all night and her eyes hurt badly, she still didn't feel sleepy.
"Hehe......" Yu Haotian turned his head to look at Yu Wanyin, and suddenly laughed.
Although there was such an incident as Yu Xuanji, even though Mo Chuye was unspeakably irritable in his heart, when the guards reported that Leng Tianche was approaching the outside of Kyoto, he still quickly restrained all his emotions, and after calmly ordering all the matters, he left the palace as if nothing had happened.
The Leng family of Zhenguo Mansion has served the royal family for many years, and he is a first-class loyal minister, Mo Chuye is a person who cherishes talents and loves talents, so he naturally wants to personally pick up Leng Tianche's dust.
The long street of Kyoto has already been bustling with crowds, in order to see the demeanor of this Leng Tianche general, Leng Tianche has learned martial arts since childhood, followed the old man into the barracks at the age of five, can go to the battlefield at the age of ten, became famous in the first war at the age of fifteen, and is now a famous general of Zhenguo at the age of twenty.
It can be said that Leng Tianche is a mythical figure in Western Sui.
The army holding high the banner of the Western Sui Army entered the city of Kyoto, and the cries of the people were raised.
Leng Tianche is not handsome, with wheat-colored skin and sharp eyes that always carry an unwarranted evil spirit, but the advantage is that the nose is high, and the whole facial features appear particularly three-dimensional and stylish, coupled with the righteousness of that body, people often ignore his appearance and are attracted by his spirit.
"The minister knocks to see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live long live. Leng Tianche turned over and dismounted, and respectfully clenched his fists and knelt down.
As soon as his words fell, the soldiers knelt down, and everyone shouted in unison, the scene was not spectacular, even shocking.
"General Leng, please get up. Mo Chuye smiled heartily, and then raised his hand to help him. However, he found that there was a small blue sedan chair in the middle of the army, and immediately smiled and quipped: "General Leng, what is hidden in this sedan chair!"
Leng Tianche's face stiffened, and it could even be said that it was not good-looking, which made Mo Chuye a little confused for a while, and Leng Tianche glanced back at the sedan chair that was not moving.
cleared his voice and said, "Come out!"
Suddenly, everyone looked at the blue sedan chair curiously. They all guessed which beautiful woman was sitting in this sedan chair, who could be carried back to Kyoto by General Leng.
However, when the person in the sedan chair came out, it surprised everyone.
Yu Xuanji glanced at everyone's different expressions, and couldn't help but smile in her heart, and then she moved lightly under Ruyi's support, and walked to Mo Chuye as if she was walking very hard.
"The courtiers knocked on the emperor. She was as difficult as Yingying Yifu, and faintly he heard her muffled snort in pain.
"Hmm. Mo Chuye looked at her for a moment, as if she had some flowers on her.
When she raised her eyes, her eyes collided with his, and all she could see was a wave.
Mo Chuye is the emperor, seventy-two concubines in three palaces and six courts, he can pamper all the concubines, but he will never fall in love with any of them, and he has the same attitude towards Yu Xuanji.
If any of the once favored palace concubines died, there would be the same wave in his eyes, Mo Chuye was amorous and infatuated, but his infatuation had already been poured into the woman who was called the crescent moon.
Both of them are indifferent people physically and mentally, he needs her to fill the void in his heart, she needs his grace to help her avenge her hatred, the so-called proximity is just to take what they need.
"The courtiers dared to ask the emperor to uphold justice for the courtiers. Yu Xuanji knelt on the ground as she said word by word.
Now that there are so many people, she has to strike while the iron is hot.
Mo Chuye's face changed suddenly, and he secretly said that it was not good in his heart, so he stepped forward and whispered in Mo Chuye's ear: "Brother Huang, it's not good to be on the street." ”
Leng Tianche glanced at Mo Chuyun deeply, and then bowed slightly and said: "Your Majesty, my cousin was persecuted and washed out of the Ten Mile Forest by water, if it wasn't for the ministers who happened to save my cousin, I'm afraid my cousin would have died in Huangquan, and I asked the emperor to uphold justice." ”
In fact, Yu Xuanji waited in Shili Lin early, threatening her words, saying that if she didn't help her, she would listen to her grandfather and marry him alive.
Leng Tianche's words made everyone seem to smell a smell of conspiracy, so the onlookers and the ministers couldn't help but prick up their ears.
Leng Tianche spoke, and Mo Chuye was naturally not good at what he was saying. On the other hand, Mo Chuyi's face froze completely.
"Tell me who is persecuted, and I will surely do justice to you. ”
Yu Xuanji's afterglow swept over Mo Chuyi, and the corners of her mouth curled up with a touch of arc, and she recovered in just a moment.
"Yesterday, the courtiers and His Royal Highness King Yan, the fourth sister Yu Wanyin, the fifth brother Yu Haotian, and the Miss Yuyan of the Shen Mansion swam together in the lake, and they were happy, but when they arrived at the center of the lake, they scolded the courtiers as if they were a different person. ”
She shook her body, her voice trembling and choking, as if the memories of the memories frightened her.
"Yu Xuanji, you don't want to spew blood. Mo Chu couldn't help yelling.
"Ahh My body trembled all the time.
"If Cousin Xuanji is spewing blood, why is His Royal Highness King Yan so manic?" Leng Tianche's hand gently patted her back to show comfort. The implication is that Mo Chuyun is a thief.
His cousin was born with good acting qualifications, and he couldn't forget how she smiled and "threatened" him last night.
Mo Chuye glanced at Mo Chuye coldly, and he restrained himself. Then he opened his lips and motioned for Yu Xuanji to continue.
According to the nature of the courtiers, they naturally couldn't bear it, so they asked them for an explanation, but they were angry and pushed the courtiers out of the lake, fortunately, the courtiers were ...... dead" The words fell, and she couldn't cry, her eyes were red, and she choked up: "Ask the emperor to uphold justice for the courtiers, otherwise it is not a pity that the courtiers will die here." ”
Regardless of whether what Yu Xuanji said was true or not, but because of the scene, Mo Chuye had to show his own attitude.
"Ask the emperor to be clear, my sister is gentle by nature, how could she do such a vicious thing?" Shen Tianze glanced at Yu Xuanji viciously, then paced out and knelt on the ground.
"Listen to Shen Yuma, what does it mean that Cousin Xuanji has made something out of nothing?" said Leng Tianche coldly.
"I didn't say that, I just begged the emperor to investigate this matter, so as not to wronged good people. Shen Tianze held back the anger in his heart and replied in a strange way.
"Your Majesty, the minister swore to the sky, and the minister did not push Yu Xuanji into the water. Mo Chuyun took the opportunity to say. The words fell and glanced at Yu Xuanji even more defiantly.
For a moment, things seemed to get confusing, and people didn't know who to trust.
Seeing that Mo Chuye's brows were furrowed, and there was still a trace of suspicion, Yu Xuanji turned over and knelt on the ground, and said in a sonorous and powerful tone: "Your Majesty, the courtiers don't dare to say half a lie, if it weren't for what the courtiers said, how could the courtiers come back with their cousins?
Her words are well-founded, and people can't hear a flaw.
Seeing that Mo Chuyong still wanted to say something, Yu Xuanji preemptively said: "The courtiers still have the wounds left by the cane punishment, if the emperor doesn't believe it, you can ask the doctor to check it." ”
What! Mo Chuyun instantly suffocated all his words back into his stomach, he had never hit her! It seems that she came prepared? In an instant, Mo Chuyun was a little depressed.
Shen Tianze was even more speechless on the spot...... Why didn't Yuyan mention the cane?
"What about the courtiers and the witnesses?" she chuckled suddenly.
"Witnesses?" Mo Chuye frowned.
Yu Xuanji glanced at Ruyi, nodded knowingly, and beckoned to the crowd, and then Hongdou walked out tremblingly.
It was the final blow, and she wanted them all to be speechless. The moment Mo Chuyun saw the red bean, his face turned pale instantly, isn't this the maid next to Yu Wanyin?
Hongdou glanced at Mo Chuye timidly, and knelt down as soon as her hands and feet were weak, how could she have seen such a big scene?
"Tell me what's going on?" Mo Chuye asked.
Hongdou shuddered, and then slowed down: "The slave maid is the personal maid of the fourth lady of the Jade Mansion, and yesterday the slave maid who traveled to the lake saw the third lady being punished with a cane and being pushed down the lake. ”
"Why would you help Yu Xuanji testify?" Mo Chuye glanced at Yu Xuanji meaninglessly.
This sentence can be said to be asking the point, Yu Xuanji held Ruyi's hand and subconsciously tightened, obviously she didn't expect Mo Chuye to suddenly ask like this, if Hongdou said a wrong word, it would be a failure.
Grunt......
Yu Xuanji heard the sound of her own saliva, and she was nervous like never before.
But Mo Chuyong seemed to see hope......
Cold sweat continued to slide down Hongdou's forehead, and a handful of cold sweat was pinched in the palm of her clenched hand, what should she do?
