Chapter 316: Interweaving (2)
After Huang Zhengjing went to rescue Zhaozhao, Feast Ling and Ning Shuo both received the news and breathed a sigh of relief and relieved.
Feast bell: "Fortunately, the prince put people in Moqing Alley this time - he really did it, and he used it to settle Zhaozhao in such a place." β
Ning Shuo sighed, "He's gone mad." β
Then he paused and said, "The house in Moqing Alley was bought by me and him." At that time, the two of us didn't have too many worries, but we felt that no one knew each other, and it was different from many rules in the palace, so we also liked to go. β
"The things in Moqing Alley were still bought together when we were young, and we didn't dare to tell Sister Yingniang, so I guess the princess didn't know that place."
Feast Bell understood, "Because the crown princess doesn't know, the prince dares to put people there." β
Ning Shuo nodded, but shook his head again: "Not only for this reason, but also because it is a place where I have also had traces, and if the prince wants to trap Zhaozhao, he has to use feelings." He has no feelings to speak of in Zhaozhao now, so he can only talk about me, or my father. β
Once again, Feast Bell was outraged by the prince's shamelessness and said, "I always underestimated his meanness. β
Despicable people never think they are despicable, so even if the crown princess told the prince everything as it was, she didn't dare to fully believe that the prince would let Zhao Zhao go.
So, she had to drag the crown prince.
She chose to do something big. It's something she's been wanting to do lately.
She asked to see His Majesty.
She went to see the emperor without telling the prince, and by the time the prince knew, it was too late. He walked around the East Palace, unable to calm down at all, and there was no way to take care of Zhao Zhao.
As the crown princess thought, as long as his own interests were involved, he was in no mood to care about other people.
Even if he said he couldn't do without Zhaozhao.
The prince lost his temper.
The emperor was very pleased. He didn't misunderstand the child Yingniang, she has been a purer girl than everyone in the world since she was a child.
She can be regarded as the one he grew up watching. As soon as she entered the hall, she didn't have to speak, he could know what she wanted to do from her eyes.
Still, he wanted to hear it. There are not many people in this world like the crown princess. He likes to listen to people like that.
The emperor looked at the crown princess kneeling on the ground and said with a smile: "So solemn, but what's the big deal?" β
The emperor actually wanted to pretend and act, and the crown princess was also willing to accompany the pretend.
She solemnly kowtowed, raised her head, looked at the emperor sitting on top of the Ming Hall, and said, "Your Majesty, you know about my father, right?" β
The Emperor nodded, "Yes." β
Although the crown princess had already guessed, when the emperor said the word "know" lightly, she still felt a chill all over her body.
After a long while, she continued to ask, "Did Lord Buyuchuan also know the truth before he died?" β
The Emperor bowed his head again, "Yes." β
The crown princess's eyes were red, "Can I know what His Majesty said before he died, so that he could use a dagger...... Without hesitation, he stuck it in his chest. β
The emperor said quietly: "I told him that he insisted on his morality before, so he didn't go to save Lan, but now, he has to insist on his morality and send Yingniang away?" β
The crown princess actually guessed some.
But the emperor said these words as they were, but it made her feel extremely disgusting.
She felt like she was carrying a human life.
I don't kill Beren, but Beren dies because of me. She choked up and asked the emperor, "Even so, if he dies, hasn't His Majesty thought of avenging him and Taifu?" β
The emperor sighed, "Yingniang, you are still young, and you don't understand that there is not only right and wrong in this world, but also a lot of concerns. β
The crown princess said loudly: "But Your Majesty, there are always eyebrows and eyes in this world, and good and evil are rewarded, Your Majesty is not afraid of retribution if you do this?" β
The emperor's face was difficult to see. But he didn't get angry, he was always patient with Yingniang, and said: "The word retribution is for ordinary people in this world, not for me." I am the Ninety-Five, I have long been separated from right and wrong, if I am doing things, I still need to take care of right and wrong, then this emperor has already done it. β
The crown princess shook her head, "Your Majesty exonerated himself, using the Ninety-Five Honor." Then what did Your Majesty use to exonerate my father? β
The emperor said, "Your father always has merit, and he is not a bad man." β
When the crown princess heard this, she was in a trance for a moment.
- It turns out that in the emperor's heart, his father killed so many people, is he not a bad person?
She smiled bitterly, only to feel that the teachings she had received for so many years were suddenly gone.
She asked, "When I was a child, Your Majesty taught me, my father taught me, and Taifu taught meβI learned everything that all of you taught me." β
"I think about it carefully, these days, I've been thinking about it for a long, long time, day and night, and I still haven't remembered whether you taught me hypocrisy."
"Didn't teach me the word wickedβdid you, Your Majesty?"
The emperor sighed, but was willing to say something truthful, and said, "Yingniang, I didn't think about killing you. However, Bo Ying's death, I am indeed not sentimental, he died on the morality he wanted to adhere to, it is not tragic. Although your father laid a net, he didn't want to kill him from the beginning, it was Bo Ying who hurt the interests of your family, so he had to kill him. β
"Your father was jealous of Bo Ying, but apart from the last fatal blow, he didn't do anything to hurt him."
The emperor sat in this position and was used to seeing ugliness, so he was more tolerant. He sincerely felt that although Zhen Guogong's sin could lead to death, in many things, it was not a great evil.
The crown princess suddenly said: "Your Majesty is so appreciative of my father, is it because of ......?"
She met the eyes of the Supreme Emperor, "Is it because Your Majesty has done the same thing as your father, so you don't dare to call your father a person of inferior character?" Do you think that in this way, you can clear your name? β
The emperor was originally peaceful, as if everything was under control, but he was aroused by this sentence and countless angers, so the teacup in his hand smashed directly at his feet, "Presumptuous! β
"Yingniang, I have always spoiled you, indulged you, and treated you as my own daughter, even if your father committed a heinous crime, in order to protect you and Ahri, I also minimized this matter, so worrying, but you will take revenge, then you can tell yourself, I killed your whole family, okay?"
The crown princess muttered: "So Your Majesty, even for me and Ahri, should be able to secretly let my father die violently, why didn't Your Majesty do this?" β
She smiled bitterly, "It's nothing more than that Your Majesty thinks that Taifu's life is not a life, Lan Shi's life is not a life, and the lives of innocent people who die are more like ants." β
"So, as long as my father doesn't do anything that endangers His Majesty, you can still forgive."
"After all, you think that your father has been good to you for so many years and is willing to do anything, but now he just killed a Taifu, which is really nothing."
"Let me think about it, Your Majesty said, and then before your lord died, you said that you left your father for me and Ahri, but Your Majesty didn't dare to tell him - Father may have promised you as a target - as your target to defeat Jiangnan."
The emperor's face turned pale again, and the crown princess understood. A lot of things have also opened up.
She exhaled a breath of turbidity, "Father killed Taifu for Jiangnan." Taifu is unwilling to compromise for His Majesty for the sake of Jiangnan. But my father was willing to let Jiangnan compromise for the sake of His Majesty. β
"I see...... I see...... Then why didn't Your Majesty dare to let the old man of Buyuchuan know? β
