A bolt of lightning swept through the dark clouds over Kyoto, and after an instant, a muffled thunder sounded, shaking the entire imperial palace and trembling, and the heavy rain fell, wetting the imperial city, and the rain gathered under the palace in a very short time, flowing down along the gap between the glazed tiles, and the sound was very loud.

When this fashion is chūn, if there is thunder, it should also be dry thunder, and like this kind of thunderstorm, it will inevitably seem a little abrupt and weird, I don't know if the heavens are angry, or the Son of Heaven is already angry.

The emperor walked into the gate of Guangxin Palace, turned around and slowly closed the palace door, then took off a hairband from his wrist, and meticulously tied up his wet hair, meticulous and meticulous, not as good as his mood at this time.

The eldest princess was half-leaning on the low couch, looking at him and suddenly laughing.

At this moment, there was a burst of silver bell-like laughter in the empty Guangxin Palace, and the laughter echoed in the wind and rain, although it was light and brittle, but it could not be concealed, and it was passed around, which seemed extremely weird.

The emperor's face remained unchanged, and he walked slowly forward, and walked in front of the couch, in front of the eldest princess.

Behind him, there were straight wet footprints, the distance between each footprint was so even, and the lines formed by the footprints seemed to be drawn straight up.

Not silent for a long time, the emperor looked at Li Yunrui indifferently and asked word by word, "Why?"

Then the eldest princess Li Yunrui fell silent.

She frowned beautifully, her green fingers gently tapped the low couch beside her, and her watery pupils flashed with doubt and innocence like a young girl.

She seemed to be thinking, she seemed to be confused, she seemed to be at a loss.

However, she finally raised her head, turned her face up, and looked at the most powerful man in the world in front of her with a calm face.

At this time, a long time had passed since the emperor asked those three words, and the emperor seemed to be very patient to hear the answer.

Without waiting for the emperor to continue to ask, Li Yunrui suddenly gasped, blinked his big eyes, covered his lips with his hands, and said, "You are asking why?"

"Why?"

She suddenly laughed, stood up, stood opposite the emperor without showing weakness, stared at him sharply with those two resentful eyes, and asked word by word: "Brother Emperor, do you ask why your sister is in her thirties and has not yet married? Or why did your sister shamelessly seduce Zhuang Yuanlang when she was fifteen years old? Or why did your sister raise so many faces?"

She bit her lip lightly, took a step closer to the emperor, stared at his eyes, and asked in a cold tone to the bone: "Why? Why does the eldest princess Li Yunrui have to take care of the inner treasury for the imperial court for so many years, why does she, a fool, forcibly suppress her disgusting and accept talents for the emperor of Qingguo? Why does she have to work hard to deal with the kingdom next to her?" Why did she secretly form a Junshan Society, to kill some people who were inconvenient for the emperor to kill, and to engage in some yīn schemes that would make the imperial court lose face?"

"Why?" Li Yunrui stared at the emperor seriously, flicked his cloud sleeves, and said sharply: "Brother Emperor, why do you say why? Why am I so stupid? Why are you the most glorious horn in the whole world, but I am willing to be the darkest horn behind you? Why do I have to bear these reputations?"

The emperor was silent, indifferent, and looked at her pitifully.

The eldest princess suddenly laughed nervously: "Isn't this all for you, my dearest brother, if you want to make a name for yourself, those dirty things must be borne by others...... But have you thought about it, what about me?"

"What about me?"

The eldest princess grabbed the emperor's dragon robe angrily and said hatefully: "I also want to ask you why! Why do you take away everything that belongs to me? Why don't you have any affection? Look at your bastard child...... You took all of my qiē and gave it to him...... I know that all the qiē will not be there, and I am willing to do so, as long as you are willing...... But it can't be him! Why is it him?"

Li Yunrui gasped twice, then quickly calmed down, glanced at the emperor with a pitiful gaze, and said slowly: "It's a pity...... Your illegitimate child is still only willing to be surnamed Fan. ”

............ The emperor looked at her in silence, and after a while, he said slowly, "You are crazy. ”

"I'm not crazy!" Li Yunrui screamed angrily: "I was crazy for more than ten years before! But today, I'm not crazy!"

"You're crazy. The emperor said indifferently: "You have asked so many whys, it seems that the root of this qiē is in me, but have you thought about it, your preference for power has reached a deformed stage." ”

"Deformed?" Li Yunrui frowned, flashing a contemptuous expression, "A woman wants power is deformed, so what are you, the most powerful person in the world?"

"Presumptuous!" the emperor squeezed out a very low voice from his throat and waved his hand.

The eldest princess looked up at him indifferently, looked at his palms, and didn't care at all.

"Your qiē is given to you by me. The emperor slowly put away his palm and said coldly, "I can easily take this qiē back. ”

"My qiē is something I have worked hard for. The eldest princess looked at him indifferently, "If you want to take Yi Qiē back, unless you kill me." ”

There was another thunder outside the hall, and the wind and rain seemed to be stronger, and the emperor looked at his sister, and suddenly laughed, but there was a very cold taste in the laughter: "Could it be ...... Do you think I'm ...... I can't bear to kill you?"

............ "Of course you will." The eldest princess Li Yunrui's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of mockery, "Is there anyone in this world who you are reluctant to kill?"

The emperor, who had been calm, was suddenly stung by this look somewhere deep in his heart.

Li Yunrui looked at his eyes coldly and said, "Brother Emperor, wake up...... Don't always disguise yourself as the most affectionate and righteous person in the whole world, you must have been to the East Palace, and you seem to be hurt deep in your heart...... But who to lie? Don't deceive yourself, you've been waiting to get rid of me, you just feel indebted to me deep down, so you need to find a reason to convince yourself. ”

She said causticly, "yes, just convince yourself...... So that you can feel that killing your sister with your own hands, the sister who has been by your side since childhood and has paid for you for countless years when she grows up, is not your problem, but just me...... Damn!"

When he said the word damn, Li Yunrui's voice became sharp.

And when the emperor heard the words Donggong, he had already closed his eyes, and said slowly after a while: "You are my own sister after all, and the most distressed person of the queen mother...... You mess with the dynasty, bury private soldiers, use the Ming family, and form a Junshan Society, which is not a major crime of bullying the king, but what are these...... After all, you are my own sister, the sister I have loved since childhood, and if I don't sin you, you are not guilty...... In the past few years, whether you betrayed Yan Bingyun's kid or wanted to assassinate Fan Xian, I don't blame you, because ...... I don't think these things are a big deal. ”

He opened his eyes, and his eyes had calmed: "But you shouldn't get involved in your nephews...... The dick has been led crooked by you, although it is still well covered up on the surface. ”

Li Yunrui interjected with a sneer: "Your own son was driven crazy by yourself." ”

"What about Cheng Qian?" the emperor stared at Li Yunrui's eyes fiercely, "Do you know that he is the crown prince! He is the next emperor cultivated by my heart! I am about to lay down a big country, so I want this child to protect me for ten thousand years...... If you help him, I will only be glad, but you will be deceived by him!"

There was another muffled thunder in the sky, the sound was not very loud, but the palace of Guangxin Palace was buzzing, but in the power of heaven and earth, the emperor's angry voice was still so sharp, piercing into the ears of the eldest princess.

The electric light seeped in through the window, shining brightly in the Guangxin Palace for a moment, and in this moment, the emperor stretched out his steady right hand, choked the throat of the eldest princess, pushed forward, stepped on the low couch all the way, pushed through the screen, and put the most beautiful woman in Qingguo against the palace wall, the green tendons between her fingers were exposed, and she was exerting force!

The eldest princess had some difficulty breathing, but she didn't call for help, she didn't beg for mercy, she just looked at the angry middle-aged man in front of her indifferently and pity, her white swan-like neck was choked by that hand, and the blood flow was not smooth, which made her face redden, but it revealed a trace of charming and moving beauty.

"I ...... Never thought about changing heirs...... All the qiē is just for the future of Cheng Qian, because I need a generous and powerful monarch to inherit, and this qiē ...... It's all ruined by you!" The Emperor roared angrily: "Why!"

A trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of the eldest princess who was flushed, and then she smiled, gasped and said, "It turns out ...... This qiē is all you playing, it turns out that Fan Xian is also being played by you, presumably he will die worse than me in the future. ”

Her body was strangled against the palace wall, and her two toes were reluctantly tiptoeing on the ground, looking very desolate, but at this time, she laughed very difficultly: "It's just that you definitely won't let Cheng Qian succeed to the throne again, are you going to let Fan Xian be the emperor...... No, Brother Emperor, I know you, you will not let Fan Xian come out if you die. ”

When the emperor heard this, his hand softened a little.

The eldest princess looked at him, interestingly, playfully, and gasped and said, "Brother Emperor, you are too suspicious, you are too good at disguise...... You want to temper the prince, but you scared the prince into a mouse...... He thinks he can be removed by you at any time, how can he not be afraid, how can he not need a reliable embrace like me?"

Bosom...... The eldest princess Li Yunrui didn't seem to be afraid of death at all, and she stimulated the emperor's eardrums vigorously.

The Emperor stared at her and just asked, "Why?"

............ "Why?" Li Yunrui suddenly struggled under his palm, but the result only increased the pain, and she screamed angrily: "Why? There is nothing why! He likes me, that's why...... Hongu likes to play with him, playing until it makes you sad and makes you despair......"

She nervously ate and laughed: "I only learned today that your desperate pain is greater than I imagined, and I am satisfied." ”

The emperor looked at her blankly and said slowly, "He likes you?"

"Isn't it okay?" the eldest princess's beautiful cheeks, full of crimson, looked particularly tempting in the electric light that lit up from time to time, she gasped, and said proudly: "I don't like the men of this palace in this world...... Is there one?"

She looked at the emperor's face close at hand, and was suddenly stunned, and raised her weak right hand a little stupidly, stroked the emperor's face, and said in a tone full of fascination: "Brother emperor, you also like me." ”

"Shameless!" the Emperor slapped her hand down.

Li Yunrui didn't get angry, just gasped and said firmly: "You like me...... It's just that I'm your sister, but ...... So what? Like is like, even if you hide your mind at the foot of Dadong Mountain, hidden in the sea, but you will still be found by yourself, and your mind cannot be lost. ”

"Not all men are as emotional as beasts. The emperor looked indifferently at his sister, who was breathing more and more rapidly, "Not all men will bow under your skirt, women, never think that you will stand on top of men." ”

"You mean Ye Qingmei. Li Yunrui suddenly spat him viciously, "I'm not her!"

"You'll never be as good as her. The emperor suddenly leaned into her ear and said, "Even if you toss for so many years, you will never be as good as her, and you will never be as good as her place in my heart...... You know this yourself. ”

A trace of dead ashes suddenly flashed on Li Yunrui's face, as if he had been hit by this sentence in the deepest vulnerability.

A hint of cruelty flashed in the Emperor's eyes, and he continued to whisper in her ear: "You can only follow her forever, but...... But you will never be able to catch up, and now she and my son are about to receive your qiē, aren't you in pain?"

Li Yunrui struggled and stared at him with a fierce look.

"You're not even as good as my bastard. The thunder rumbled outside the window, and the words whispered by the emperor in the ear of the eldest princess fell on the ears of the eldest princess, but it was more terrifying than the thunder outside the window: "You said earlier that you can play with all the men, why don't you go and play with him?"

Li Yunrui's gaze gradually calmed down, and he said with great difficulty but calmly: "He is Wan'er's father-in-law." ”

The emperor looked at her with mocking and vicious eyes: "You even dare to do it with your own nephew, and you still know the word shame?"

The eldest princess looked at him with pity without showing weakness: "We are three brothers and sisters, but there are two crazy people of us, I don't know, do you know? If you really knew, you wouldn't have snatched your subordinates' sweethearts into the palace as concubines!"

The wind and thunder outside the hall suddenly stopped, and there was a deathly silence inside and outside.

The emperor's palm was resolute and unmoving, holding the eldest princess's fragile throat, and he did not speak for a long time.

"During the Northern Expedition, you were seriously injured, and your whole body was stiff and unable to move. The eldest princess coughed, and said viciously and happily: "It was Chen Pingping who raided thousands of miles and rescued you from the mountains in the north at great risk...... But what do you do with these two benefactors? Do you know that Chen Pingping likes Ning Cairen, and Ning Cairen also admires Chen Pingping, but you, the master, stabbed Ning Cairen sideways and robbed Ning Cairen...... Brother Emperor, don't think that I didn't know about this matter when I was young, why was the queen mother so angry? Was it just because of Ning Cairen's identity? Why did you put her to death? If it weren't for Ye Qingmei's intercession, Ning Cairen and the eldest prince would have been dead for a long time...... Do you know such a thing as shame?"

"Don't say that Chen Pingping is a eunuch!" The eldest princess said viciously: "You think you are cleaner than me?"

............ However, to Li Yunrui's disappointment, the emperor didn't seem to be so shocked and uneasy, just looked at him indifferently.

The emperor slowly increased the strength of his palm, and said word by word: "Before I died, I still didn't forget to pick up the relationship between me and Dean Chen, Yun Rui, I really appreciate you, so I ...... Can't keep you. ”

――――――――――――――――――――― the East Palace, the poor mother and son were still panicking, but the prince with a pale face was much better than the queen, although he knew that he was about to face an extremely terrible end, but after all, he was the son of Emperor Qingguo, and he had been cultivated as the next emperor, and the terrible composure and calmness in his blood played a role at this moment.

If he wants to save himself, he must first save the eldest princess, and the crown prince knows that there is only one person who can save people under the knife of his angry father in this palace.

Moreover, it is impossible for the emperor to tell that person the truth, and it is impossible for the mother to be filial to hurt the old man's body.

So the prince knew that he still had a chance to live.

However, the East Palace had already been surrounded by the people brought by Eunuch Yao, and it was impossible to get in touch with the people outside the palace at all, even if it was the cronies of the Empress and the Crown Prince that they often cultivated in the other palaces, they could not approach here in the thunderstorm at all.

"Set fire to the palace. The prince turned around, looked at his waste mother, who had already had no six gods, and said fiercely: "Even if it rains, this palace will be burned!"
