Among the corpses everywhere, the concubine still knelt quietly, as if none of this had anything to do with her.

Yun Zhao's gaze swept over, there was no one on the dragon chair, her gaze went down, and she saw the emperor sitting on the ground with a person in his arms.

"Master!"

She rushed over, ignoring etiquette.

Zhao Rufeng lay there dying, his armor cracked open a long slit, and blood came out, staining his clothes red.

"Master......" Yun Zhao went to shake his hand, he held her back with difficulty, spit out a mouthful of blood, and his voice was intermittent: "Good boy, be good." ”

Yun Zhao suppressed his crying, wiped his tears with one free hand, and his eyes were covered with blood.

She heard Master's voice: "It is an honor for the old minister to die for the emperor. Back then, Derong Laihou was promoted to protect the emperor closely, and the old minister lived up to his mission. ”

"Zhiqing, I can't stand you."

"Lao Chen only has one daughter, who is still young and has not yet married, so he can't rest assured. Please ask the emperor to call the shots and find a good person for her. ”

"Zhiqing, Yi'er is a good boy. I like it too. Today's marriage is decided, and she is the future crown princess. I and the prince must treat her well. ”

Yun Zhao was stunned, and the prince said, "Your Majesty! ”

The Emperor glanced at him only once, his eyes full of menace.

Yun Zhao wiped her eyes indiscriminately, and her palms couldn't make a clean place.

Zhao Rufeng smiled: "The old minister thanks the emperor for his grace." He turned his head to look at Yun Zhao: "Good boy, good boy." ”

He left only one sentence and went.

Yun Zhao stood up numbly. She only felt a flower in front of her, and a shadow flashed away, and an angry voice shouted in her ear: "I will kill you." ”

Her body reacted much faster than her brain, and by the time she did, she was already in front of the prince, and a long sword sank into her chest.

The crown prince came back to his senses from Fang Cai's marriage, caught Yun Zhao's shaky body, and kicked the ancestor of King Huai'an out. She only felt pain and didn't dare to gasp.

"Ah Zhao, Ah Zhao, don't be afraid, I'll call you the Imperial Doctor." The prince trembled and hugged her, his eyes reddening. He raised his head and shouted angrily: "Pass on the imperial doctor! ”

Hu Sanhai hurriedly ran out.

When Yun Zhao woke up, she was in the Hou Mansion, Yun Duo fell asleep lying next to her bed, and not far away, where the candle flame was faintly bright, Wang Yanshu also fell asleep with his head propped up.

She recalled the scene in the main hall, choked on her breath, and couldn't help coughing.

The clouds immediately woke up, and the gentleman came over.

"Sister Zhao, you're awake, you've been asleep for seven days, but I'm scared to death."

Seven days, so long.

Wang Yanshu looked at her and said softly: "The situation outside has been stabilized, don't worry." ”

Yun Duo ran out to call the doctor, and the gentleman stood by the bed and did not speak.

"You're scared." Yun Zhao pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled hard.

He lowered his eyes and said in a tight voice: "The emperor rewarded you for your merits, gave you a set of purple and gold robes, sealed the pillar country, and served as the left servant." ”

The left attendant is the same as the deputy prime minister, and such an official position makes Yun Zhao's heart weigh down a big mountain.

She sensed Wang Yanshu's concern, the court is not as good as the army, and the open gun is easy to dodge and the hidden arrow is difficult to defend.

Yun Zhao smiled slightly: "Yanshu doesn't have to worry, I can do it." ”

Imperial Physician Zhang checked her pulse and breathed a sigh of relief: "Master Hou is strong, but old injuries add new injuries, you have to recuperate for more time, don't be tired, don't use force." ”

"There's Dr. Lao."

"The minister prescribed a prescription, please take it on time every day."

"Okay."

The imperial physician wiped his sweat: "The marquis rests, and the minister will go to the East Palace to reply to His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"It's getting late, and there's no hurry for the doctor to go again tomorrow."

"Your Highness commands, if the marquis wakes up, he must report in time, and he is not allowed to delay the hour."

Yun Zhao restrained his expression and no longer stopped: "There is a doctor Lao." ”

The night was quiet, and although Yun Zhao looked tired, he didn't feel sleepy.

The clouds sat on the edge of her bed, talking to her excitedly.

"Sister Zhao, do you hurt?"

Yun Zhao shook his head.

"It's great that you're okay." Her eyebrows were met with the excitement of shock, and she whispered, "That old marquis has been imprisoned, and the concubine is also dead." ”

Yun Zhao looked at Wang Yanshu.

He nodded: "The Marquis of Yuling was captured, and the concubine didn't wait for the hair to fall, and she picked up her sword and killed herself." ”

The palace concubine committed suicide to punish the nine clans!

Yun Zhao's heart trembled, and then he sighed again. The Marquis of Yuling committed rebellion, and no matter what, he couldn't escape the fate of the Jiu clan.

It's just that there are still so many old and weak women and children who don't know what their husbands and sons have done, but they want to be innocently implicated.

The wound on her chest hurt slightly, reminding her not to be a woman. But I still can't help but feel sad in my heart.

"I think they deserve it, if they hadn't made trouble, Sister Zhao wouldn't have been hurt."

Yun Zhao touched her face and smiled softly.

Yun Duo came from Hu, but she was right, if it weren't for the two grandfathers of the Marquis of Yuling who intended to force the palace to rebel, how could they implicate the clansmen.

When Yun Zhaoneng went out, the two sons of the General's Mansion had already carried the coffin back to their hometown. When she came to the General's Mansion, she could only kowtow to Zhao Rufeng's tablet in front of the mourning hall.

Zhao Ruyi's eyes were red and swollen like walnuts, and her already weak body became more and more weak.

Yun Zhao remembered that day in the Chaoyang Palace, Zhao Rufeng entrusted Emperor Gu.

According to the filial piety, you are not allowed to marry for three years. But it is like a life destined to die, and all the struggles and the charity of time seem meaningless.

"Yi'er, mourning." Yun Zhao walked up to her and sighed deeply.

Zhao Ruyi bent his knees: "Master Xie." ”

She is so polite, Yun Zhao can't just treat her as an orphan girl after all.

"If you have anything, come to the Hou Mansion to find me at any time. Even if the master is not there, the Ronglai Marquis Mansion will always be your backing. ”

She raised her eyes and looked over, and her red and swollen eyes were full of sadness and despair: "Master Hou is kind, Yi'er understands it." ”

Yun Zhao was speechless. They are actually not acquainted, Yun Zhao is a cold person and does not like to deal with people. But because of Zhao Rufeng's relationship, she occasionally had contacts with several sons and girls in the General's Mansion, and she has always been friendly and close.

Zhao Ruyi took a deep breath, slumped her shoulders, she turned her head to look at her father's tablet and said, "I don't complain about my father, this is my life." Daddy has his responsibilities, and I, as his daughter, should do so. ”

Yun Zhao also looked at Zhao Rufeng's ranking, remembering what he said to her before he died, "Okay." Master's heart towards her is pure and sincere.

The voice of King Huai'an sounded in his ears again, like a demon who locked his soul: in order to marry you, he did not hesitate to risk his life to go to the east to investigate the corruption case, and almost died there.

The emperor once said that the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet must come, and the prince died nine times in the east...... Ruyi's best destination is not the East Palace, and the master is not a person who covets fame and fortune.

What lingered in Yun Zhao's heart was the trembling that had come out of the ground and been stepped on by her again and again.

Was she the crown princess that the prince was going to marry?

Yun Zhao lowered his head, and Zhao Ruyi said lonely: "I'm sorry." ”

Yun Zhao walked out of the General's Mansion, only to feel that his heart was overwhelmed. When he returned to the Hou Mansion, he had to report to the old five: "Little master, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come down." ”

She shuffled like a corpse carrying a mountain.

The crown prince sat in the main hall, and Yun Zhao leaned over and saluted him: "His Royal Highness the prince Gui'an." ”

He walked over in three or two steps, picked her up, and led her to sit down.

"You're not in good health, don't talk about these rules."

Yun Zhao didn't respond, he said to himself: "Since the palace change, Your Majesty's health has been not good, and I am in charge of the country these days, so I really can't spare time to see you." ”

"His Royal Highness Prince Lao remembers, and the minister is already at ease."

The prince glared at her condescendingly: "Can you speak well." ”

Yun Zhao sighed, looked up at him, and softened his temper a little: "I really have something to entrust you." ”

"You say." He had an idle and gentle look.

"Yi'er is a good child, and you grew up seeing her grow up. From now on, she will be your crown princess, and you must take good care of her. ”

The prince pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled: "You just want to tell me this?" ”

She lowered her eyes: "Yes." ”

The prince leaned over suddenly, clasped his hands on the armrests of the circle chair, and stared at her with his body pressed over. sneered: "Since she is the lonely crown princess, she has nothing to do with you." Lonely's family affairs don't have to worry about Rong Laihou. ”

"Well, what Your Highness said is that it was the ministers who trespassed." She kept her head down, turned her face away, and confronted him with a quiet compromise. The room was quiet, and Yun Zhao heard his own heartbeat, each screaming with anger.

After a long time, the prince propped himself up, looked at her indifferently and said, "You are really a heartless person. ”

This sentence seemed to touch Yun Zhao's unaware taboo somewhere, and made her churn all of a sudden: "Of course I don't have a heart, if I have a heart, I won't be able to live today!" ”

Ji Xingyan looked at her in shock, her eyes were red, her eyes without tears were like a dry well, and her angry appearance was like a little leopard, showing her fangs and claws, but she restrained herself from taking a step forward.

She was so angry and so far away from him.

At this moment, Ji Xingyan suddenly felt that in a few years, they had been separated for a few years, and Ah Zhao was no longer his Ah Zhao. She was as far away as a cloud in the sky, and no matter how much he chased her, he couldn't catch up.

"Zhao!" He called out to her in a deep voice.

"Am I wrong?" Yun Zhao raised his eyebrows and looked at him sarcastically, "Born in the Hou Mansion and my parents died early, I have been destined to follow this path of a supreme minister since I was five years old. The minister is willing to be loyal to the minister, and he is willing to be a friend, but many people who have been implicated by me will let me take what to return! ”

The prince suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her shoulder: "Ah Zhao, we have known each other for thirteen years, it turns out that you know everything, you know my ......"

"I don't know anything." Yun Zhao opened his mouth to intercept his words, "It's just that the teacher has passed away, and the little sister can only rely on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be saved in the future." ”

"You know, she's not the crown princess I want."

"She's your crown princess."

Yun Zhao is like a defeated rose. It turns out that she has taken on such a love, and it is better for her to face all this by herself.

"The minister is destined to be on the battlefield in this life, with a meager body, and a horse leather shroud. The crown princess is destined to be assisted by the monarch in her life, in order to support Dacheng. ”

"I never believed in predestined. Just like I don't believe that the fourth brother is destined to be the prince. He let go of Yun Zhao and said indifferently, "You have received the imperial position, and you don't have to go back to the frontier again." ”

Yun Zhao didn't even know what expression to face him, she wanted to cry but didn't have tears, she suppressed all her emotions, and finally just lowered her head in the end: "The minister obeys the order." ”

The prince left angrily. Yun Zhao looked at the sunlight shining in outside the house, dazzling. She felt her eyes get a little wet, closed them slightly, and lost consciousness.
