Chapter 28: Brother Don't Be Black (28)
"In the seventeenth year of the Great Wei Dynasty, the emperor searched for witch Gu things from the East Palace, Long Yan was furious, and ordered the abolition of the crown prince Chu Changxun, locked up in the South Lane, and never came out."
After receiving the news from the system, Gu Yao was no longer surprised, there will always be some unlucky people in this world, it's too normal!
"Go on," Gu Yao didn't even raise her eyelids, waving her hand indifferently, "I can bear it." β
The system coughed lightly, it is lodged in the host's brain, and the host's emotions can be felt, and it seems that the host is really immune after hearing too many tragic stories.
Chu Changxun was deposed as the crown prince and imprisoned in Nanxiang, and it was the third prince who was favored by the emperor instead of him, and he also married Chu Changxunruo's original fiancΓ©e Xie Yan'er.
Three years later, the emperor learned the truth, the fact of witch Gu was framed by the third prince, and he regretted it, but Chu Changxun had suffered a lot in Nanxiang in the past three years, and he had already been desperate and numb, and even if he came out, he was already a waste. β
The system is very calm, because it has long been strange like the host, and there are too many unlucky eggs, so they need to save it!
"Let's get started!"
Gu Yao skillfully stood up from the chair and closed her eyes, and then a dazzling white light flashed, transforming from her cozy little bedroom to another space.
"How can there be such a big musty smell!"
Gu Yao stretched out her hand to cover her mouth and nose, and looked at this small dilapidated house with disgust.
Realizing that he was wearing a bright red wedding dress, he quickly covered his mouth and nose with wide sleeves as a face towel, and seemed to be wearing a heavy hair crown on his head, and reached out to touch all cold hair accessories.
"Host, this is the place where the waste prince was demoted to live, do you think it can be the same as the East Palace?"
The system smirked, but thankfully it didn't feel the smell.
"I seem to understand why Chu Changxun is desperate and numb, and suddenly falls from the clouds into the quagmire, living in such a broken place for three years, then everyone has to go crazy!"
Gu Yao frowned and looked at the only two tables and chairs in the room, the legs and legs of the table were uneven, and there were cracks when you looked closely.
The walls were so damp that they seemed to have moss, a strange smell, and the sheets and bedding were all black and shiny, and I got goosebumps all over my body when I saw them.
It seems that except for her wedding dress, there is not a single clean thing in the whole house!
"Ahh Oh, my God! β
Gu Yao covered her face in pain, even she, an ordinary person who is not rich in the 21st century, can't stand this environment, let alone the crown prince whose status in the feudal dynasty is second only to the emperor!
No wonder it's hopeless, no wonder it's going to slump...
"Host, please cheer up, then you will live here as Chu Changxun's wife, you have to revive his numb heart, and stay up until the emperor discovers the truth and regains the position of crown prince!"
The system clenched its little fists and encouraged.
"Wife? Didn't it mean that when the emperor ordered the door of the South Lane to be opened, only Chu Changxun came out alone? β
Gu Yao took off her wide coat and spread it on the bed, and then sat down on her clothes, so she didn't want to touch the black sheets!
"Before Chu Changxun was deposed, there was a quasi-crown princess, Xie Yan'er, the daughter of the prime minister, who was the sister-in-law of the host's current identity.
Xie Yan'er is now the third princess, to be precise, the host was sent in by the three princes and his wife as a show-off object! β
Gu Yao probably knew what was going on, life in Nanxiang was difficult, Chu Changxun could barely survive it, and the delicate Miss Xiangfu would definitely not be able to survive, I am afraid that she would die in Nanxiang.
"Does Xie Yan'er have a grudge against her sister-in-law? Sending people to the South Alley is clearly going to kill her rhythm! β
The system did a quick search, "Yes, that Miss Shuchu's deceased mother is quite loved by Prime Minister Xie Cheng, Xie Yan'er is avenging her mother!" β
"Ahh
Gu Yao fell on the bed in despair, Chu Changxun is the deposed prince, she is the concubine who has a grudge against her sister-in-law, this is simply a hell mode!
"Host hurry up, Chu Changxun is coming in."
Gu Yao hurriedly got up and tidied up her dress, after all, she was once a serious prince, so she didn't dare to fool around at will, but it was obvious that she was thinking too much.
The dilapidated door of the house was opened, and in came a lifeless living man, slender but ridiculously thin, with a hand holding a plate that could almost see the bones, and a desperate and numb look in his eyes.
Gu Yao blinked sympathetically, it was hard to believe that this prince, who was once above 10,000 people under one person, seemed to be destroyed and ruthless, and he was really completely desperate.
Chu Changxun sat on the wooden chair by himself, picked up the cold steamed buns on the plate and ate them one bite at a time, his eyes were still numb.
Gu Yao lifted the hem of her skirt and walked over, squatted down and looked at the steamed buns that had hardened and the porridge that had solidified, even these things would be a little difficult for her to swallow, and it was hard to believe that a person who was once a prince could still eat with relish.
"It's winter now, and you're so thin, eating these cold things is not good for your stomach..."
Before the words were finished, Gu Yao suddenly wanted to slap herself, if there was anything else delicious, who would want to eat these!
"System, do I have any things to dowry when I get married, do I have any food or anything like that, my prime minister's father can't really let me die, right?"
"I'm sorry, but yes!" The system helplessly spread his hands, "Xie Yan'er is now the third princess, and the third prince is the most trusted person by the emperor at the moment, so the prime minister chose Xie Yan'er and gave up on you!" β
Gu Yao immediately gasped, her face full of despair.
"The holy decree of the abolished prince has been issued half a year ago," Chu Changxun swallowed a mouthful of cold steamed buns, "I'm sorry to let you get involved and suffer." β
"Huh? It's okay, it's okay, don't get me wrong! β
Gu Yao hurriedly waved her hand, this Chu Changxun's heart was fragile enough, she couldn't make it worse!
Then fell into a long silence, Gu Yao squatted on the ground and watched Chu Changxun finish eating, no, he also left two steamed buns, and then watched him take off his shoes and clothes and lie directly on the dirty bed without taking off his clothes.
But I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and left the side where she laid out her clothes.
Gu Yao really couldn't stand it, she felt that every pore on her body was resisting, she was a person with a habit of cleanliness, and she had already felt unwell since she appeared in this room!
He took a deep breath, then got up and walked to the side of the bed and lifted up the person lying on the bed, because the other party was too lean, so he was easily grabbed by the arm and lifted up.
"No matter what kind of suffering you have suffered, life has to go on, not to mention that you were once a prince! The East Palace you live in is thousands of times better than this dilapidated house, are you so desperate to give up just because of a failure? β
Gu Yao persuaded bitterly, she couldn't reveal the development of the incident, she couldn't directly say that the emperor would find out the truth after waiting for another three years, so she could only persuade first.
But obviously the effect is not significant, Chu Changxun is still confused, and the numbness in his eyes has not decreased for half a minute.
"Does that mean you know you're still alive in South Lane?"
"Shut up!"
Gu Yao rolled her eyes in her heart.
"Hmm..."
Chu Changxun nodded slightly, it was amazing, he really knew how to make the mattress just now, and he did it himself.
Until the moment he lay back on the bed, he still couldn't believe it, and he turned his head sideways to look at the person sleeping next to him, and couldn't tell what it was like.
Xie Yan'er is gentle and dignified, why is her cousin so elf and eccentric?
Gu Yao was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, the purpose of her coming to this world was to complete the task, and she would leave when the task was completed.
The next day, when it was dawn, Gu Yao got up, and of course he got up so early to warn the palace people who were waiting in Nanxiang.
In Chu Changxun's three-year life in Nanxiang, these palace people who served were cheating and cheating, and they were deliberately negligent because they were ordered by the third prince.
And Chu Changxun fell one step by the pride of the sky and left himself to fend for himself, so his body was completely wasted in the past three years.
"Chu Changxun is not the concubine of the late queen, and he still has some affection with the emperor, even if he is relegated to the south lane, and some palace people are arranged to serve the basic food, clothing, and daily life."
The system saw the environment of South Lane through Gu Yao's eyes, and shook his head.
"The more delicate and ornate the porcelain, the easier it is to break."
Gu Yao rubbed her hands vigorously, now is the time when it is cold, I still feel that the bedding is too thin when I slept last night, fortunately, there is a system, otherwise I would have frozen.
There are several palace houses on the west side of the South Lane, they are not allowed to come out for life, and half a year ago, when they heard that the famous Royal Highness the Crown Prince was demoted to the South Lane, they were all dumbfounded.
At first, I was trembling to serve, but later I could see that the abolished prince might not have the possibility of going out, so he simply didn't care.
If there is something to use first, just let the waste prince not starve to death, if something really happens, there will be three princes!
A group of palace people were drinking hot white porridge around the table when the door was suddenly kicked open.
"What time is it! Hot water breakfast is not delivered yet! β
Gu Yao didn't wear a wide-sleeved long skirt anymore, but changed the style and tightened the sleeves, she was not in the East Palace now, she was going to work herself.
A group of palace people were stunned and didn't know what to say, they all knew that the Prime Minister's Mansion had sent a young lady over, but they also got an order from the third prince, saying that they didn't need to take it seriously.
But how can you look at it, this young lady seems to be a little difficult to mess with?
After finding out the Book of Witch Gu and the dragon robe from the Prince's East Palace, Emperor Long Yan was furious and abolished Prince Xiuwen.
When King Cheng was ordered to arrest him, Prince Xiuwen refused to return to the case, squinted in resistance, broke his right hand, and was confined in the alley of the West Ancestral Hall outside the palace, and there was no longer a sound.
The magic of witchcraft is really terrible for the emperor who is now gradually declining.
He no longer remembered that this was his proud eldest son, but he only knew that Prince Xiuwen was known for his benevolence and righteousness, and he won the hearts of the people.
