Chapter 82: He Won't Ask Me Why
"You said that this fire was set by Sister A?" Su Linchuan sat in the outer hall and listened to the eunuch's reply.
The eunuch lowered his head, and rarely saw King Rong's face pale, and he didn't know how to respond for a while" The eldest princess said that revenge was difficult to achieve, so she thought ..... The whole cold palace ..... Comfort the former queen ......"
The knuckles of the hands under the sleeves turned white, and a deep sense of powerlessness enveloped him, and after a while, he said hoarsely, "Stand down, if there is a second person who knows about this matter, you know the consequences." ”
"His Royal Highness King Rong......"
"Get out." Su Linchuan picked up the tea bowl on the table, but he still didn't smash it down a few times, he lowered his eyes, and said in frustration, "That's it......"
He covered his eyes with his hands and leaned back in his chair tiredly, gasping for air like a stranded fish. "What should I do? What can I do? ”
Sleepless nights.
"Concubine An, here!" The gate valve was transmitted, and the eunuch led a woman with an indifferent face to go inside.
It wasn't until she stood still in front of Su Linchuan that he came back to his senses, breathed slowly and got up. The two looked at each other, and he realized that this was not Chu Wenbing but Chaoling.
She was wearing Chu Wenbing's usual blue clothes, which were extremely incompatible with those phoenix eyes, nor were she as dignified and gentle as Chu Wenbing, "What about the eldest princess?" ”
Chao Ling held the red rope tightly, and his feet were wet with water all the way, and the hem of his clothes was a little draggy. Still learning Chu Wenbing to be a young lady of a family, seeing Su Linchuan was in a hurry, and the last bit of temperament was ground to nothing.
He seemed to be crying.......
I have seen too many forbearant people in the world, and it is the first time that I have cried so flatly and directly, and Chao Ling is at a loss for a while. "Don't cry...... Su Linchuan....... Aren't people alive? ”
"Concubine Niangniang, His Royal Highness King Rong. Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess has woken up. Behind the screen, Chen Qi cleaned his hand and walked out slowly, "I applied needles to the eldest princess below, and now it is slightly better." ”
Chen Qi also saw Chaoling, the gods and demons recognized people and relied on the spirit, even if they couldn't recognize Chaoling's appearance, they could see that she was surrounded by fire-like spiritual power.
Chao Ling saw that he was soaking wet, and glanced at the hem of his clothes, if the merman encountered water in a crisis, he would turn into a merman's tail. He went into the fire to save people, and then it rained heavily, and he was still on human feet.
"Concubine Niangniang." Chen Qi reminded softly that he could move a few steps to Chao Ling and ask her to see it clearly as if provocatively. "The eldest princess hasn't fully recovered yet, but you're still ......"
"The main palace is waiting here." She raised her head and slanted at Chen Qi.
It was impossible for her to let Su Linchuan and Chen Qi stay together, it was too dangerous.
Chen Qi also noticed the red rope she was holding in her hand, and immediately guessed that she had gone to Lingming Mountain again.
The atmosphere was tense for a while.
"Chuan'er, Sister is fine." Su Pujia on the bed was angry, but this sound was too clear, and there was no madness.
Her eyes were clear and clear, and they were no different from when she met her in Lingming Mountain three years ago.
"Eldest Sister ......."
Chen Qi copied the pen and wrote down a recipe and handed it to the steward eunuch, "The eldest princess has been haunted by evil ghosts for many years, although in addition to this ghost, the princess's body still needs to be warmed, this recipe is divided into three pieces, it should be no big problem." ”
The list was handed out across Chaoling, and she hurriedly glanced at it, catching a glimpse of a few medicinal herbs that invigorated blood and dispelled blood stasis.
"Concubine An, His Royal Highness King Rong, if there is nothing to do, the poor road will retire first."
***
Jin Yuwei is in a dark prison.
The dark guards knelt on both sides of Jiuli, and the long road stretched from under their feet to the dark distance, and the narrow and deep silence enveloped everyone.
Today, Emperor Xuanlin personally came to the secret prison to interrogate his henchman who had been with him for many years, Cheng Yu, the commander of Jin Yuwei.
Cheng Yu was by his side when he was still the prince, and it was not too much to say that he was the only confidant of Jiuli at that time, and later Jiuli ascended the throne, and he was the commander of Jin Yuwei to deter the court.
And the first thing Jiuli did after returning from Lingming Mountain was to put Cheng Yu in a dark prison.
The chair in the middle of the torture chamber had been sitting the black-shirted young man all the year round, and now he was hanging from the chain opposite, facing the master he had followed for many years.
"Master......" Cheng Yu has always called Jiuli the master, not His Majesty.
Jiuli smiled mockingly, even he almost thought that he was Cheng Yu's only master. He shook his head and sighed, "Cheng Yu, your master's voice is so sad." ”
"You know better than I know what's in the prison. I don't want you to die too painfully, I'll answer all your questions in a while. ”
Cheng Yu's butterfly bones pinned to the wall, forcing him to keep his head down, and he struggled to raise his eyes to try to glance at Jiu Li. "The host ......"
"You gave the order to seal up the Yunhua Water Pavilion?"
"Yes."
"You changed the drawings of Lingming Mountain?"
"Yes."
"Why?" Jiuli clenched the armrest of the chair, calming his shocked instincts. He should have thought that the only person who could carry the Holy Lord's edict to seal the Yunhua Water Pavilion was Cheng Yu.
Only he can, and only he dares.
Cheng Yu knew him too well, even if Jiuli was still sitting upright, even if his nervous hands were hidden under his long sleeves, Cheng Yu could read his panic from his flickering pupils alone.
"I thought the owner wouldn't ask me why, I thought the owner was a ......."
Jiuli has never been a person who likes to trace his roots, and he has never shown such strong emotional fluctuations to anyone except Chaoling over the years.
"He's a cold-blooded and ruthless person."
The secret guard next to him took out the red-hot soldering iron in the flames, and when he heard that Cheng Yu was disrespectful to the saint, he had already wisely stepped forward to prepare for punishment.
Jiu Li tapped on the table and motioned for him to stop. He stood up slowly with his arms propped up, his robe hanging down like a black waterfall, and he said word by word, "You, no, yes, Cheng, Yu." ”
He grabbed Cheng Yu's head, looked at the blood stains on his hair stained his fingers red, and his fingertips turned white hard, Cheng Yu let out a painful wail, as if someone had pinched his life, and he kept struggling.
It's not that he never asks Cheng Yu why, but Cheng Yu never asks him, no matter what kind of unbelievable order he gives, he never asks why.
How does Cheng Yu know Jiuli, but doesn't Jiuli understand Cheng Yu?
Jiuli said so definitely that Cheng Yu was unexpected. He struggled to break free from his confinement, and a gloomy voice spilled over his head, "You shouldn't have felt pain just now, but what about now?" ”
A puff of white smoke emanated from Cheng Yu's body, blinding everyone's sight, and only a sharp wail could be heard.
"Stand back." Jiuli's voice sounded, majestically ordering all the undecided secret guards.
The screaming shook everyone's eardrums and took a long time to stop.
Jiuli let go of "Cheng Yu" and asked the palace people to find clear water and clean their hands, and the person who was originally hanging on the wall has become a puppet.
A wooden puppet with a faint lychee fragrance all over its body.
Puppet illusion, the puppet is covered with a soul and can transform into anyone's form, except that it does not feel pain, it is no different from ordinary people.
The only way to kill is overhead.
Such a profound illusion can make Jiuli even notice. He smiled coldly and said in his heart: This world is too interesting.
"Tsubasaki." Within his divine sense, Jiu Li silently recited the name of the Pleiades Star Monarch.
In the interior scene of the great priest's life, into the Milky Way and the moon, the sea is inclusive. The Pleiades Star Monarch was wrapped in spiritual power and floated in front of Jiuli, this was the first time he entered the interior of Jiuli, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to move.
"Your Excellency."
"Go on, Cheng Yu get it back for me."
"Huh?" The Pleiades Star Monarch was dumbfounded, and the Great Priest ordered that this was to use the Celestial Hall to find a mortal who might have died. "Are you going to send him to Lethe?"
"You go quickly, he's going to enter Lethe River when it's late."
"Huh?" The Pleiades Star Monarch was silent, did the great priest mean to save this Cheng Yu and return to Yang?
Jiuli slanted Ni and said, "Ah, what? ”
"Your Excellency, if this man is dead....... Does Xiaoxian want to return the yang for it? ”
"......" Jiu Li was rarely silent, and only said after a while, "That's it, just lead him to the Si Ming Palace." If it's not the undead, find an opportunity to bring him back. ”
He knew very well in his heart that this person could unknowingly place Cheng Yu's puppet beside him, and most of Cheng Yu's deity was dead.
The hands are white when soaked in cold water, and the blue-purple blood vessels are abnormally obvious. He inhaled softly and took his hand out.
It seems that after following Chaoling for a long time, there is even more compassion for the heavens.
"Do you want to get a job for him in the Si Ming Temple?"
"Let's leave it alone, I should be back soon." Jiuli said calmly, "Fu Nian is back, and he is looking at her...... Should be killing me soon. ”
***
"Your Majesty Xuan'an Guifei is here." Sun Ji took a turn in the harem with an umbrella before he saw that he had found Chaoling. He made a big salute and hurriedly said, "Niangniang, why are you still here, Your Majesty is asking you about the Dao Cultivation Heart Palace." ”
Chaoling didn't change her identity for a while, she is now pretending to be Chu Wenbing, wearing a blue skirt with water sleeves and a heavy headdress, pretending to be five points similar.
The key is that few people in the vestibule have seen Chu Wenbing, and Jiuli said that Chaoling is, so it is difficult to be debunked.
Several people surrounded Chaoling, holding an umbrella for her in front and back, and crossed the long steps. Sun Ji reminded: "Your Majesty, please be careful when you ask. ”
"But something happened......"
"This minion doesn't know, His Majesty usually carries Cheng Commander, and the minion doesn't dare to talk about it."
Chao Ling was relieved, mostly because of Cheng Yu's affairs.
Sun Ji said again, "Your Majesty is not very good when he comes back from the Shang study, the slave asks more, you ......"
Shang Shufang......
"Chu Wenbing is lost?"
The first Shangjiuli rubbed his temples and looked at Chao Ling, who stood up from his chair in surprise. "Yes."
"Yes? Su Jiuli, I'm embarrassed to say yes. Your concubine is lost, why are you so calm? ”
"She's not a concubine."
"That's not what I'm talking about!" Chao Ling took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. "Have you ever found out who is here in the study?"
"Nobody."
"Sue! Nine! Black! ”
Jiu Li's expression was calm, "But I brought you this." ”
Chao Ling saw a box in the corner, covered with a white cloth, and a large lock fell on it.
Jiuli pretended to know nothing, and asked suspiciously, "General Lin, help me see what this thing is." ”
The lid of the box was opened, and the tragic situation inside startled Chaoling, a wooden puppet covered in blood. She naturally saw at a glance that this puppet should have been pretended to be Cheng Yu.
She secretly doubted the doubts in her heart, and remained silent, "This is ......"
"Chaochao, I'm not sure if Jin Yuwei still has the eyeliner installed in the Golden Feather Guard, and the only one I can rely on now is you. Tomorrow, I will order the border guards to temporarily take over the defense of the imperial city, and I need you to help me find out Chu Wenbing. ”
Jiuli Zhengse said, "The palace has long been leaking from all sides, and now we are in the light, and the enemy is in the dark." The news of Chu Wenbing's loss will spread in three days at the latest. You are now in the palace with the identity of Chu Wenbing. If you want to, you can always pretend to be Chu Wenbing, but who will play Lin Wanqi? ”
