Twenty: Suicide

"That's good," Lu Yi calmed down slightly, remembering the news he had heard in the past two days, his heart was confused, and he reassured, "Ah Yan, don't worry too much, everything will be fine!" ”

Zhang Yan turned her head, looked at the girl with anxious eyes, pursed her lips and smiled, "Thank you, Sister Wuniang." She paused,

"I think my aunt will be fine!

Time in the Jiaofang Hall is as fast as a white horse, and as slow as soaking in water, flowing past little by little.

On this day, Liu Ying entered the palace and came to the Jiao landlord's hall.

Lu Yuansan rushed out in two steps, held his hand and asked hurriedly, "Brother, what did Brother Ao say?" ”

"Sister," Liu Ying made a silent gesture and smiled warmly, "Who do you think I brought here?" ”

Lu Yuan was stunned.

The guards in armor who followed the prince raised their heads, under the bright red tasseled helmet, their eyebrows were elegant, and their eyes were like jade, could it be Zhang Ao, the husband he had been thinking about for a long time?

Liu Ying looked at the couple and looked at each other, and the corners of her lips curled. Not wanting to disturb them, he quietly withdrew.

The March sun shines on the Jiaofang Palace, bright and warm, there is a row of swings under the wide trees in the court, and the girl in the goose yellow dress sits on the swing, the brocade silk shoes are slightly off the ground for three points, swaying leisurely, bright like an olive on the lips.

"Ah Yan," Liu Ying walked over to call her.

Zhang Yan raised her head and called, "Uncle." "The smile is empty.

Liu Ying looked at her eyes that were as silent as Qiuhu, and felt a slight pity in her heart, and comforted, "Don't be afraid, uncle won't let your mother go to the Huns like this." ”

"Hmm." Zhang Yan nodded, "I believe in uncle!" ”

Jiaofang Hall stood silent, solemn and majestic, in the window of the side hall, Lu Yuan and Zhang Ao looked at each other for a long time, crying and throating, and threw themselves into Zhang Ao's arms, "Brother Ao, I really thought I would never see you again!" ”

"Silly Manhua," Zhang Ao hugged her, stroked her hair with pity, "Why have you been raising for two months, and your body has not been raised, but it has been even more damaged?" ”

"Brother Ao, Brother Ao," Lu Yuan's eyes were flustered, and he said hurriedly, "Don't blame me, I don't want to be like this." You had an accident before, and I was afraid that you would resent me and hate me, so I didn't dare to go out of the palace to see you. But," she covered her face with her hands, tears rolling out of her fingers like beads, "if I had known that there would be today's disaster, I would have left the palace with you that day, and in any case, I would have been able to gather together for this last time!" ”

"Silly girl," Zhang Ao pulled her hand away and gently wiped away the tears under her eyes, "I never blamed you!" ”

Lu Yuan's eyes became hazy under her husband's affectionate gaze, and slowly her lips slowly approached, and finally stuck together, tossing and turning. Zhang Ao picked up his wife's delicate body and put it on the couch in the hall, and in a blink of an eye, the two of them were already disheveled and panting......

The couple were in a state of confusion, when they suddenly heard the eunuch's shrill and high voice coming from outside the hall, "I was ordered by His Majesty to take down the Marquis of Xuanping, and I don't do it yet!" ”

"He Guan," Prince Liu Ying's angry voice came from outside the hall, "You are so bold. ”

"Yo, it turned out to be His Royal Highness the Prince," He Guanpi smiled and said with a smile, "The slave maid is doing things on the orders of His Majesty, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has any objections, why don't you go to the Great Xia Palace and ask Your Majesty?" ”

"Youβ€”" Liu Ying was furious.

"Brother Ao," Lu Yuan covered his clothes and stumbled out of the hall, and said in a lost voice, "What are you doing?" Let go of my brother Ao! ”

"Princess Yuan stays," He Guan waved his breeze, stepped forward to stop Lu Yuan, and said with a smile, "Xuanping Hou broke into Changle Palace privately, and the slave maid was ordered to punish his subordinate court captain, don't let the slave and maid embarrass it!" After a pause, he added,

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Of course, Your Majesty is also thinking of Princess Heyuan's father-daughter relationship, as long as the princess listens to His Majesty's words, Xuanping Hou will naturally be fine! ”

"Trespassing into Changle Palace," Lu Yuan covered his face and smiled, "Fortunately, my father has no genius to add another piece of filthy court, otherwise, I will really not be able to stand the laughter!" ”

Empress Lu raised her phoenix eyes, "Your father is just using this to blackmail you and Zhang Ao into leaving!" He took his daughter's hand and asked softly, "Manhua, what are you going to do?" ”

"Queen Mother," Lu Yuan looked up at Lu Pheasant, "according to you?" ”

A fierce look appeared in Empress Lu's eyes, "You must know that only my daughter is here, I recognize Zhang Ao as a son-in-law, if you don't have it, I will care if he lives or dies!" ”

Lu Yuan smiled, looked at Empress Lu and said softly, "Queen Mother, you are willing to let him suffer, I am reluctant." Besides, after all, I have been involved with him so far, and I will always take care of him. ”

She sat up straight, her voice cold and hard, "Queen Mother, you help me pass a word to my father, so that my good father, the emperor, will come here to see me." After meeting, the daughter will go to the Xiongnu willingly! ”

"Man Hua," Empress Lu was shocked, "what are you going to do?" ”

"Queen Mother," Lu Yuan lay in Queen Lu's arms, and said coquettishly, "Don't worry, I'm just coaxing my father, and my daughter still wants to accompany her mother to grow old together!" ”

"That's fine." Lu Hou said, "Maybe if you beg your father, he will change his mind!" ”

"Well," Lu Yuan nodded, shed a tear, and fell into Empress Lu's arms, but Empress Lu didn't see it.

A moment after noon, Liu Bang's Xuandi Panlong embroidered silk shoes appeared outside the Jiaofang Palace, Lu Yuan smiled slightly, folded his hands and bowed, "See Your Majesty." "The gesture is as elegant as ever.

"Man Hua," Liu Bang stepped forward to hug her with a smile and said, "Where did our father and daughter come from to be so unfamiliar and polite?" ”

Lu Yuan stubbornly refused to get up, Liu Bang gradually lost his smile, straightened up and said, "Are you refusing?" ”

"Father Emperor went to ask the palace up, "Lu Yuan raised his head and said lightly, "Which woman is willing to leave her hometown and go to the desolate and ignorant Xiongnu grassland?" ”

"Man Hua," Liu Bang softened his voice and looked sincere, "Don't blame your father, your father can't help it for this Han world." From the public, you are the princess of the Han Yuan Dynasty, and you should be loyal to the country; From home, you are my daughter, so you should be wronged for your father! ”

Lu Yuan raised his head and looked directly at his father, and suddenly asked, "If Manhua agrees to marry and pro-Xiongnu, my father is willing to swear that it will not be easy for him to become the crown prince for the rest of his life." ”

Liu Bang frowned and was displeased, "These are two different things, how can they be mixed up?" ”

Lu Yuan didn't hear it, and forced him step by step, "Is my father willing to send Mrs. Qi away and never see each other again?" ”

"You ......" Liu Bang shook his sleeves and was furious, "Don't be unreasonable!" ”

Lu Yuan sneered, "My father himself is not willing to be wronged for the Han at all, so why should I, as a daughter, suffer this grievance?" ”

"Liu Manhua," Liu Bang saw that Huairou could not succeed, so he simply tore off the veil of warmth and affection, and said scoundrelly,

"I don't care if you should or not, I am your own Aweng, a child, marriage depends on the life of your parents and the words of the matchmaker, since I am the master, you can also be allowed, and you can be allowed if you are not allowed. It really annoyed me, and I tied you up and sent you to the car of the Huns. ”

"Who am I?" Lu Yuan Huoran got up and glared at the man named Father who was close at hand.

"From the time you pushed me and my brother out of the car, the Ah Weng in my heart was dead." She roared, tears dripping from her red eyes, "The tiger still knows that if you don't eat your own children, you only have your country in your heart, only the woman and his son in the Immortal Palace, how can there be half a point between our mother and son?" ”

"Rebel girl", Liu Bang slapped Lu Yuan hard with a "snap", "What kind of evil wind have you eaten?" How dare you speak to me like that? "β€”don't forget," he said coldly,

"Zhang Ao is still locked up in Tingwei at this time!"

Lu Yuan's face was beaten to the side, covering the finger marks that gradually surfaced and laughing miserably, "If you have the ability, my father will force our family of four to death, and my heart will be pure!" He turned his head, ran to the screen in the hall, grabbed the bronze sword on it, drew the sword out of its sheath, and brushed it across his neck.

"Aren't they the parents of the body? My daughter gave them all back today. If my father is really capable, he will take my bones to the Huns and give them a real princess Yuan! ”

She sliced the sword in her hand with all her might.

Zhang Yan screamed, "A-Niang," ran out from behind the screen, wanting to pounce to block Lu Yuan's self-killing movements, but because she was too flustered, she tripped her feet and fell down hard, and she desperately rolled to Lu Yuan's feet and grabbed the sleeve of her sword.

The blade of the sword slashed through the neck, and a puddle of blood erupted in an instant.

With a "clang", the blood-stained sword ** fell to the ground. Lu Yuan closed Ning Xin's eyes. Because the blade of the sword was deflected a little by Zhang Yan's strength, it was far from the fatal place, but it still cut its neck and slowly fell to the ground. The blood under his neck instantly meandered into a river.

It was as if the picture suddenly turned black and white, and the palace people in the palace were frozen in an instant. He Guan shouted sharply, "Hurry up and announce the imperial doctor!" ”

"What are you guys doing stupidly? Don't bandage the princess's wounds yet. ”

The palace people who reacted hurriedly curtled their knees and responded, "No." "Hurriedly stepped forward.

Liu Bang stood in place, looking at Princess Yuan, who was surrounded by people in the central palace of the palace, her face was pale and haggard, she was lying there quietly, if it weren't for the fact that her chest was still rising and falling slightly, she could hardly see the breath of life.
