Chapter 115. Dark Arrow

The emperor opened his eyes and looked at King Guojun: "But there are many relatives and nobles in the court, and I hope that Yun is the last person who has the heart of rebellion, and all kings can keep to themselves in peace from now on." ”

King Guojun's heart trembled, and against the emperor's almost penetrating sight, the hairs on his back stood on end, he stabilized his mind, and pretended to speak easily: "Others dare not say it, but the younger brother is the first person to be the first to do it, but I ask the imperial brother to protect his wealth and wealth, and don't let his younger brother do these thrilling things in the future." At this moment, he thought about all the horses and feet that could be exposed.

"You've already said that, can I not fulfill you?" The emperor smiled faintly.

King Guojun tugged at the corners of his stiff mouth and laughed: "Brother Emperor Xie." ”

After walking out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, he found that he was in a cold sweat, and when the wind blew, he shivered with cold. Looking up at the cold full moon, King Guojun tidied up his clothes, and gestured to a corner without a trace before leaving.

After solving the great problem in his heart, the emperor instantly relaxed, he leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes, and enjoyed this moment of tranquility.

An Lingrong walked out from behind the screen, took off his armor and stepped forward, reaching out to rub the acupuncture points for the emperor: "The emperor will go to sleep after resting, the night is already deep." ”

"Rong'er, go out for a walk with me." The emperor held An Lingrong's hand, his face was full of exhaustion, but his eyes were terrifyingly bright.

"Okay." An Lingrong nodded.

The emperor took An Lingrong up to the high-rise building of Qianqing Gate, and overlooked from here, the entire Forbidden City was in full view, and it was indescribably magnificent and magnificent.

"Rong'er, I've never brought anyone here, you're the first." The emperor held An Lingrong in his arms, pointed to the distance and said, "You see, the people are about to start a new day again, they don't know what happened last night, they have done nothing all their lives, but the world I want to keep is the ordinary life of these ordinary people." There may be many things that some people don't understand and misunderstand me, but I still have to do it, just for me to be alive and well. ”

An Lingrong looked at the emperor's side face, her heart was extremely touched, at this moment, she felt more intuitively that the man in front of her was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, not only with supreme power, but also with a responsibility comparable to a thousand catties.

"Your Majesty ......" An Lingrong's voice was a little tight, an impulse that she had never had before was driving her, and at the moment when the words were about to be spoken, a small cold light suddenly flashed the corner of her eyes.

An Lingrong's cold hair stood erect suddenly, she looked up suddenly, but she saw a vague man in black raising a bow and pulling the string, and the trembling sound of the wings at the end of the arrow fell into her ears very clearly at this moment, An Lingrong's eyes widened, and before her brain turned around, her body had already reacted first: "Your Majesty!" ”

"Poof!"

A splash of blood exploded in front of the emperor's eyes, and the pitch-black arrow pierced An Lingrong's heart, and she stood in front of the emperor and fell down like a broken butterfly.

"Rong'er ——!!" The emperor only felt that the blood in his whole body coagulated for a moment, and he roared and reached out to catch An Lingrong, and his eyes were scarlet blood.

An Lingrong opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak, tremblingly reached out and grabbed the emperor's clothes, and slowly closed his eyes.

Su Peisheng heard the movement and hurriedly brought someone to find him, took a look, and suddenly his scalp was numb: "There are assassins!" Protect the Emperor! ”

In an instant, the entire Forbidden City was plunged into a whirlpool of panic.

"Smack!"

The book in Zhen Huan's hand fell suddenly, and Fang Chunyi, who was drowsy playing with dice on the side, was also awakened, rubbing his eyes and looking over: "Sister Guan, what's wrong?" ”

Zhen Huan suppressed the restlessness in her heart, reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled: "It's okay, I'm just a little sleepy." She glanced at "The Change of Xuanwu Gate" that fell on the table, and her eyes were filled with sorrow.

"Sister Guan always reads books, and I don't even know what books are good about." Fang Chunyi seemed to have returned to the past with Zhen Huan, intimate, and said nothing, "Alas, it's all autumn, has the emperor forgotten us?" ”

"I told you not to come, you have to come along, do you think you came to Penglai Zhou to become an immortal? If you come with me, the future in the palace is ruined. Zhen Huan looked at Fang Chunyi, she was still vigilant in her heart, and there was a sense of temptation in her words.

Fang Chunyi's eyes flashed, remembering the words that Su Peisheng said to Zhen Huan when he came to deliver the autumn clothes and futons some time ago, she knew that the emperor punished Zhen Huan to come to Penglaizhou not to make a promise to her, but to protect her. Fang Chunyi suddenly realized, and his heart became more determined to make friends with Zhen Huan.

She bowed her head slightly, bit her lower lip lightly and said aggrievedly: "Sister Guan and I have been estranged for so long, I'm afraid I haven't paid attention to Chun'er for a long time." Once I was favored, I suddenly fell out of favor, and the people in the palace laughed at me, saying that I was treacherous, but the bamboo basket was empty. Everyone is trampling on me, and all the palace maids and slaves dare to give me a look, Sister Guan, I am really having a hard time, every time I go to look for you, I am stopped at the door, so many people look at me eating behind closed doors, it is really embarrassing and sad. I can't figure it out, how did I offend my sister, and my sister never gave me a chance to defend myself, if it's for the emperor, everyone in this palace is the emperor, why can't I? ”

She looked at Zhen Huan sadly: "Sister, do you know, this time I was favored, I was humiliated by Miao Promise three or four times, even if my position is above her, she relies on her grace to treat me as a lowly person, how ugly and ugly I can speak, I have no one to confide in, I can only swallow it myself." Instead of wandering in the palace, it is better to come to this Penglai Island with my sister, which is also pure. ”

Zhen Huan's eyes moved slightly, Fang Chunyi hurriedly got up and knelt in front of her, crying: "Sister Guan, do you really want Chun'er?" Chun'er was with her sister when she first entered the palace, and she always thought about her sister and thought about her sister, Chun'er just wanted to ask, what is the reason why my sister doesn't want to see me like this? ”

Looking at Fang Chunyi's tear-stained face, the line of defense in Zhen Huan's heart slowly loosened.

Penglaizhou is remote and lonely, and the days here are also calm and lonely, so Fang Chunyi and Zhen Huan don't pay much attention to makeup most of the time, and only simply groom every day.

Today, Fang Chunyi's face was not powdered, and her round almond eyes were watery, like a lost deer, cowardly and aggrieved, just like the night when Xin Chang was imprisoned by the Yu family in the Shen Penal Division, she ran to Broken Yuxuan with the cold of a snowy night, and plunged into Zhen Huan's arms to cry, just like the first time she saw her.

"Chun'er, you ......" Zhen Huan hesitated for a moment and met her eyes, "You get up first." ”

"Chun'er doesn't get up." Fang Chunyi cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, "Sister told Chun'er, what did Chun'er do wrong, Chun'er must change, if my sister doesn't like the emperor's favor Chun'er, Chun'er will not see the emperor in the future, just ask my sister not to want Chun'er." ”

Her stacks of nicknames claimed to have touched Zhen Huan's memories, and she sighed heavily: "Chun'er, I'm not angry that you are favored by the emperor, but angry that you are hiding from me, if you are favored, I will be happy, why do you secretly learn to dance behind my back?" After a pause, he said again, "That's it, why did the silk fan you gave me infected with purslane juice?" After I had a miscarriage, why did you replace the aromatherapy ball on the silk fan that Rong'er gave me? Thinking of the child who died in vain, Zhen Huan's eyes were misty, "It was because I often used the fan you gave me during pregnancy that my mother was weak, and I had a miscarriage after kneeling in Yikun Palace for less than half an hour." You used purslane to harm me first, and you intended to blame Rong'er later, what else do you have to say? ”

Fang Chunyi cried for a moment, with a blank and helpless expression on his face: "Why does purslane hurt my sister's body?" Isn't that for mosquito repellent? ”

"Concubine Guan, I really wronged my little master!" Su Yun on the side knelt on his knees and cried, "Purslane can repel mosquitoes is what the slave told the nobleman, the slave maid used this recipe at home before, that day the little master said that the silk fan he made was not as good as the concubine Rong Niangniang, so he thought of moving some other ingenuity, and the slave maid came up with this idea, never thought of harming your child!" She sobbed and wiped away her tears, "As for the aromatherapy ball, it has nothing to do with the nobleman." That night, the slave accidentally dropped the brocade box containing the fan, and the chain of the aromatherapy ball was broken, and the slave was afraid of being punished, so she took it upon herself to tie it back again, maybe the night was too dark, and it was unknown if the tie was wrong, after all, the three fans were placed in one box. But this matter really has nothing to do with the little master of my family, and the noble man doesn't know about it at all. ”

Zhen Huan never thought that the truth of the matter would be like this, and for a while, she didn't know who to blame.

"Sister Guan, you scold me and beat me, it's because I was smart and did bad things with good intentions, so I hurt my sister's child." Fang Chunyi cried loudly, grabbed Zhen Huan's knees, tears and snot fell down together, crying like a child, "I also gave a gift to my little nephew, waiting for her to call me aunt, how could I harm him!" Sister Guan, it's Chun'er's mistake, don't be angry with Chun'er, okay? ”

"Guan Concubine Niangniang, it's all the idea of the slave maid, if you can't be angry, the slave maid will pay for the life of the unborn little brother." Su Yun wiped his face, turned his head and got up to hit the pillar.

Cui Jinxi was so frightened that she immediately threw away the simmered taro in her hand, blocked Su Yun's momentum with her body, and Liu Zhu and Ju Qing were pulling behind her, and finally stopped her.

The hall was suddenly in chaos, Zhen Huan's mind was confused, listening to Fang Chunyi's crying, and looking at Su Yun's determination to die, after all, her heart softened and relieved: "Chun'er, get up." She stopped her tears, took out a handkerchief and wiped Fang Chunyi's crying face, and said in a choked voice, "It's all over, forget it." ”

Fang Chunyi sobbed and got up, and shrank to Zhen Huan's side: "Sister Guan, what if we can only be here for the rest of our lives?" ”

"No, it won't." Zhen Huan said in a low voice, holding Fang Chunyi and coaxing gently, "Wait a few days, the emperor will be relieved, and he will send someone to take us back to the palace, don't worry." She always remembered the emperor's entrustment, even if her heart was not defeated at this moment, she did not let go.

Fang Chunyi leaned on Zhen Huan's shoulder, and his eyes were as secretive as deep.

After another two days, Liuzhu and Ju Qing took advantage of the good sunshine and took the quilt out to dry, Zhen Huan sat on the stone under the tree as usual, looking at the lake from afar, and suddenly saw a boat slowly rocking over, and suddenly stood up nervously, and her hand subconsciously reached into her sleeve and firmly held the dagger that the emperor handed her for self-defense.

There is no complete certainty in everything, the matter of survival, fear of life, this is not a blessing or a curse, if it is evil and invades the good, she will never live.

"What are you doing?" Cui Jinxi looked at Zhen Huan holding the dagger, and was suddenly startled, and reached out to grab it.

Zhen Huan hid and had the will to die: "If this ship is sent by Prince Dun, if I live, I will definitely suffer all kinds of humiliation and torture, it is better to die than this." She trembled and grasped the handle of the dagger, "The emperor is everything to me, my dignity, life and death, honor and disgrace are all given by him, if he is defeated, I should go with him." ”

Raising her eyes, Zhen Huan seemed to have made up her mind, and took two more steps towards the lake.

The ship slowly leaned against the shore, and the guards on the ship did not move, only Xiao Xiazi walked out from behind and knelt ashore in front of Zhen Huan: "Niangniang, it's done." ”

Zhen Huan's body was weak, the dagger in her hand fell off, and she slammed on the ground with a "dang" sound, she cried with joy, and couldn't help crying: "Is the emperor okay?" ”

"Yes, the emperor is all right, and the dragon is healthy." Xiao Xiazi had no joy on his face, and his expression was heavy, "Prince Dun ordered someone to assassinate him secretly, and Concubine Rong was seriously injured when she blocked the arrow for the emperor, and she has not been out of danger so far." The emperor is concerned about Niangniang, and he sent a special message to let the servants come to pick up Niangniang and the nobles back to the palace, and Niangniang hurry up. ”

Zhen Huan's face changed suddenly: "What?!" ”

Xiao Xiazi talked about the specific details with Zhen Huan on the way back, and in just a few words, it was still clear that the situation was dangerous, and Zhen Huan couldn't help but hang her heart.

"Concubine Rong was too seriously injured, the arrow penetrated the heart, stuck between the bones, and one inch of deviation will hurt the heart and lungs, and it is difficult to return to the sky." Xiao Xiazi said, "Because of this, no one dared to pull out an arrow to treat his injuries, and the emperor was furious and had been guarding Concubine Rong for three days." ”

Zhen Huan's heart slowly sank, and for a while, she didn't know whether to worry about An Lingrong or be sad about the emperor's reaction.

Xiao Xiazi continued: "After the Queen Mother learned about it, she asked Aunt Zhuxi to go out of the palace to invite Duchess Meng, but Duchess Guogong worshipped the Buddha and did not ask about mundane affairs, and before the slave left the palace, she had not heard the news of her entering the palace. ”

"Duchess Meng?" Zhen Huan was a little puzzled.

"Yes, Duchess Meng Guo used to be a national female doctor." Xiao Natsuko said.
