Chapter 414: The heart is cold
Hearing this, the woman in white slowly raised her head and stared at Han Qingsheng.
The heart of the king is unpredictable, and the companion is like a tiger.
Under the faint moonlight, the palace lamp is still bright.
The young emperor's face was not sad and joyful, and his eyes were like ancient wells in a secluded pool, unfathomable.
Everyone said that he was weak and deceitful, but he was just a puppet emperor supported by the second prince, and there were many actions that violated the yang and the yin.
But she knew that Han Qingsheng was thoughtful and eloquent.
He endured humiliation and burden, pretended not to know the depths, carried all kinds of infamy, and obeyed the words of the second prince, but in fact, he took retreat as advance, and planned as planned.
The second prince relaxed his vigilance, thinking that he would soon be able to replace him, but as everyone knows, Han Qingsheng has already secretly taken precautions
She pondered for a long time and knelt on the ground, "The last general He Mei implored His Majesty to take back the emperor's order and let my He family live." ”
Han Qingsheng sighed: "I guess you will ask for something, but I guess you won't say it......"
"Before, His Majesty was walking on thin ice because he was constrained by the second prince. Now His Majesty is as stable as a mountain, holding the power of life and death, and he dares not to disobey every word! He Mei ...... Don't want to be homeless......"
"You have a strange ability, all these years to protect me, I am not cold-blooded, or I will take revenge, it's just that you just said that I can sit back and relax, it's really wishful thinking. The second prince is not worried, but the crown prince is not dead, and his father is still in Dachen, and he may be sent back at any time, and my throne is still in jeopardy......"
After Han Qingsheng finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the crooked moon, his expression was lonely, and his eyes were lonely and cold, "Everyone scolds me for deceiving the world and stealing my name, and my six relatives don't recognize it, but if it weren't for this, I would have been in a different place and died in Huangquan." If you say that there is a mistake, you are born in the emperor's family......"
He Mei burst into tears.
"Everything is a last resort. Tonight's fox demon is Chen Xinyi, the seventh princess of Da Chen, who is the prince's person. Up and down the Dachen court, no one knows it, and I have heard it for a long time. I didn't expect them to come to the door so quickly. ”
Han Qingsheng was worried, turned around and helped He Mei up, hesitated for a moment, hugged him in his arms, and patted Xiang on the shoulder to show comfort.
He Mei's heart was like a knife, "My sister was killed in the Taoist temple halfway through, and her body was gone. I made a secret visit and knew that it was this fox demon and the prince who did it, and I hated to break it into pieces. But my sister died with hatred, it is already a great grievance, if I bear the charge of murdering His Majesty again, and I will be beheaded all over the house, won't all the more than 300 members of my He family be unjustly killed? Is there any reason for this? ”
Han Qingsheng's face was like frost, and he was silent for a long time.
He Mei wiped her tears, "The last general...... I don't mean to offend the Holy Face, it's just that they are all the last general's closest relatives......"
"He Mei, you Bingxue is smart, you should know the purpose of Princess Da Chen's impersonation of your sister. She bewitched the Lord, and then the mother of the world set me in the air, and what might happen in the future was even more terrifying...... Fortunately, you told me in advance, and I asked Master Mingkong to hide behind the purple brocade tent for many days just in case. Seeing that the success was lost, Chen Xinyi deliberately dropped your sister's waist, wanting to blame others and hide people's eyes and ears in order to get out. But for me, this is not a good solution to the aftermath. First, my foundation is not stable, and I must try to avoid making enemies with Da Chen or Da Zhou; Second, your father He Xiang has been secretly supporting the second prince, and this time he wants to send Helan into the palace as a concubine, so as to serve as an eyeliner for the second prince...... You are you, your family is a different matter. ”
Speaking of this, Han Qingsheng's tone had become cold and hard, and it was imperative for the He family to behead all the doors.
"Your Majesty wants to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys and establish a monarch's ......"
He Mei was sad and complained, and tears fell like rain.
"Yes. Although your father is only a Taishou, Xiyuan is an important town in Western Chu, he supports the army and respects himself, hegemons the party, and gangs up in the DPRK and China, and various forces are intertwined. You should also know that Han Bing and He Xiang are the Western Chu East Dragon and the Western Tiger, and the royal family is afraid of it, which is an indisputable fact. I have courted your father many times, but he and I have made false promises, but I have secretly helped the second prince. He deserved it this time, and as for the other people, ......"
Before Han Qingsheng finished speaking, He Mei flashed away from his embrace, Qingli's face was full of alienated coldness, "The other clansmen are even more fateful, not worth mentioning." It's the people who have trespassed. The women of the people are soft-spoken, and they should not have the luxury of asking His Majesty to open up the net. ”
"Hemei! It's not what you say. I told you so much just now, you should know that the prince and Chen Xinyi have already called the door, if I don't make a decision at the opportunity, I will definitely be doomed! ”
Han Qingsheng looked at He Mei's appearance, and was inexplicably a little panicked.
"Your Majesty's catastrophe is fate, but Mei'er is about to be beheaded by the whole family, and it is no longer a catastrophe!"
He Mei wiped away her tears, turned around and left.
"Where are you going?"
"I rushed back to my house overnight and lived and died with my family. Isn't Your Majesty going to behead all over the house? Naturally, the women did not dare to resist the decree. ”
"The widow said, they are them, you are you! You have always been loyal to the widow, how can the widow bear to kill you? ”
"Can't bear to kill me? If you destroy my door, how is it different from punishing my heart? How can you demand that I remain loyal to you? He Mei turned around and held back her tears, "Ambush on all sides, you are like a frightened bird, and you can't sleep at night, I feel the same way, and I am not afraid of death to protect you." But Your Majesty wants to punish me all over the house! In fact, very few people know about tonight's events, and Your Majesty does not need to do so. There are many corrupt officials in the DPRK and China, which one of your majesty's knives can't be used, but you want to be so cruel to me? Ten years of reading, ten years of love, nothing more! ”
Speaking of this, He Mei burst into tears again, and was just about to leave, when Han Qingsheng hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her, "You, you can't go!" ”
"You ......"
He Mei is angry.
"You think, now that I have killed the second prince, even if I don't kill your father, he will embarrass me with the other henchmen of the second prince! and the prince and Chen Xinyi are not good at stubble. If I am soft-hearted, and they are flanked by both sides, I will have no power to fight back! You can't go back, leak the news, won't you waste your efforts? ”
Han Qingsheng's eyes were furious, but they were also full of endless sadness.
Human affection is like paper, and people's hearts are cold.
Looking at the world, no one can believe it, no one can rely on it!
Master Mingkong and He Mei can be regarded as his dearest people.
Master Mingkong was a poor monk he brought back to the palace from the cold rain when he was a child.
Later, because Mingkong cured his father's cold disease, he was respected as a national teacher.
Although He Mei is the daughter of He Xiang, because of her outstanding talent since childhood, she was selected to be his companion maid in the palace.
He never treated her as a maid, and spared no effort to cultivate her, and asked strange people and strange people to teach her martial arts and Qimen Dunjia.
He Mei is smart, she has learned a little, and she has sworn allegiance to him......
But in reality?
In Venerable Mingkong's mind, the supreme thing is the self-contradictory rules of the Dharma.
What are the six roots pure, all beings are equal, just ask how to be completely pure when you are born as a human being, you have seven emotions and six desires?
If it is really pure, how is it different from a pig or a dog, and how can it be called a human being?
All living beings are born into three, six, nine and so on, noble and lowly, some people are clothed and fed, and some people are hungry and cold, how can it be possible to sit on an equal footing?
His good deeds when he was a child brought honor to Mingkong I, but Mingkong was proud and proud, and there was no dust under his eyes and no obstacles in his heart.
Even if he knew that he was almost killed by the second prince and Chen Xinyi just now, Master Mingkong refused to let go of the rules and precepts, and went on a killing spree to protect him.
