late night song

Chapter 285 Habits and Nature
Marquis Wu Cen was not surprised at all when he saw Gu Yuchu suddenly appeared outside the corridor of Tianzi Prison.

"General." He couldn't help but understand Gu Yuchu's temper. Even though they were already engaged, he still addressed him respectfully.

"How's it going?" Gu Yuchu deliberately asked an ambiguous question, sounding as if he knew the purpose of Ling Buhuo's trip.

"I heard that my daughter jumped off the city gate and has been pretending to be crazy for several days." Wu Cen replied.

It was obvious that Princess Helan only knew one thing about Yongcheng Lou Ji and her jumping off the building. Gu Yuchu understood most of it immediately. In order to confirm her guess, she continued to ask: "Is it true that no one told her that Ji He was not there?" die?"

"Who dares?!" Wu Cen laughed.

"The thousand-year-old fairy meets the fox ancestor." Gu Yuchu folded his arms and sighed, and Wu Cen couldn't help but nod in agreement.

"But how can we be sure that she is pretending to be crazy and not really crazy?" the woman continued to ask.

"Pretend to be crazy and ask for something, but if you are really crazy, you have nothing to fear." Wu Cen pointed out the key point.

Gu Yuchu patted his shoulder seriously, and then walked deeper into the prison.

The further she walked in, the more real the screams and laughter of a sharp woman could still be heard in her ears.

"I am the eldest princess of Beiling. Who do you think you are? Why don't you kneel down and salute! Hahahahahaha..."

"Although my Princess Helan Mansion is in decline, my He'er is getting married soon. She has royal blood, she is the most beautiful woman in Beiling, she is the princess conferred by the Holy Emperor, and she is the future concubine. She is extremely noble. , you little bastards, how dare you do this to me, be careful and keep walking around!"

"Gu Ying, you charming bitch, you seduced other people's husbands, you really will die badly! Hahahahahahaha..."

"Brother Sibu, I am sincere to you. I didn't use the glass pendant to force you to marry me! I didn't! It's my eldest brother. He couldn't see that I was haunted and shed tears every day. He was the one who forced your father Yuefu to go and ask for advice. Married...don't hate me, don't neglect me!"

"This room is too cold. Where are you, Queen Mother? I'm afraid..."

"He'er, He'er, you didn't listen to my mother's words? That's a wolf's den, a cold palace. There's something about being deeply in love and never regretting it. In the end, who will remember you and take pity on you?!"

"Brother, you promised your mother that you would take care of me for the rest of your life. Why did you regret it? Don't ignore me. I will listen to you in everything..."

Princess Helan told intermittently the story of her nobility, willfulness, and misery for half her life. Every sentence and every word was so sincere and heartbreaking. If there weren't dozens of accusations from innocent souls, who would believe it? This poor woman is a ruthless murderer with a butcher knife in her hand.

Gu Yuchu had experienced her painful lessons and felt that she was disgusting but not pitiful at all.

She stood at the corner at the end of the corridor, and could see Ling Buhuo's back facing the prison, without taking another step forward.

"Aunt Helan, have you done enough acting?!" Ling Buhuo stood with his hands behind his back and said coldly.

"Brother, what's wrong with you? I'm Helan. I don't want to stay here, I want to go back to the palace!" Princess Helan tightly grasped the railing of the prison and recognized Ling Buhuo as the old King Ling.

"I have ordered people to copy all of my aunt's crazy words and send them to Ziyan Palace verbatim. But my father just asked me to send this box of cakes and nothing else. I am afraid that my aunt's plan will be in vain. Sung."

Then, Ling Buhuo raised his hand, and the little palace official next to him passed a delicate food box through the prison window and opened it one by one.

The aroma of milk overflows, the pastries and fruits are all exquisite and picturesque, and there is also a bowl of swiftlet cheese. At first glance, it is for the royal family and nothing else.

"Aunt, please, how many days have you tasted the palace's craftsmanship? My father specifically asked me to watch my aunt enjoy it with my own eyes." Ling Buhuo took a step closer, stretched out his hand, waved his sleeves, and spoke in a pressing but polite manner. .

Princess Helan hesitated for a long time, then raised her voice, pointed at Ling Buhuo Yi and started to yell: "I hate you ignorant rats the most. I am the most noble eldest princess of Beiling. Even if I want the moon in the sky, , my father, monarch, mother, queen, emperor and brother would all pick it off for me, hahahahaha..."

Then she started dancing to herself, pulling the silk, baring her teeth and claws, and spinning in random circles. Suddenly, she lost her footing and knocked all the food boxes and snacks in front of her to the ground.

Knowing that this would be the result, Ling Buhuo raised the corners of his mouth slightly.He stepped forward, picked up a piece of pastry that had not been knocked over, and ate it himself.

Princess Helan seemed to calm down instantly and looked at him silently.

"Auntie thinks that I want to poison you for my own selfish desires, right?" Ling Buhuo said calmly, "I really don't need to do that. Even if Auntie can walk out of here alive without guilt, it won't be the slightest threat to me. .”

Seeing that Princess Helan was still speechless, Ling Buhuo continued:
"I have something to tell my aunt. Ji He is not dead. She is unscathed except for being frightened. In addition, the female assassin that my aunt hired from Meng Xiuran will soon die under the spy warrant."

Princess Helan hid in the darkness, frowned, and finally said: "You set me up?!"

"You can say that!" Ling Buhuo admitted generously, "But Ji He did jump from Yongcheng Tower, but she was lucky enough to be rescued. In order to change your life, she did not hesitate to break off the engagement afterwards, and she also loved you. Tried my best.”

"Stupid thing!" Princess Helan couldn't help but cursed. "I think you are the most confused one! My aunt is thinking that by sending some beautiful girls, she can control the officials, control the court, have banquets and private gatherings, and raise the status of the princess palace. Little does she know that as long as she abides by Duty, you are still the most noble princess in Beiling. My aunt is thinking that a hundred years from now, my father will only marry Ji He into the Ziyan Palace in order to continue the glory and hold great power. However, little does he know that even without this marriage plus Dear, Ji He and Ji Huan can still marry into a wealthy family that has been passed down for generations, and they will be rich and worry-free throughout their lives. When the Dongchuang incident happened, my aunt did not hesitate to stimulate Ji He in every possible way, thinking that if Ji He seeks death, you will go crazy with grief, and your father will miss his old love. If you feel guilty, you will be spared. However, after many years of injustice, my brother's patience with you has reached its limit, and there is no turning back." Ling Buhuo slowly told Princess Helan that Princess Helan's wishful thinking had failed.

"If you hadn't interfered with this, why would I be here today!" The woman in the cage scolded her nephew's nose.

"It seems that my aunt is still unwilling to reflect on her mistakes."

"The blood debt in your father's hands is thousands of times more than mine. Has he ever thought about himself? For so many years, I have been his pawn and tried my best to test and blackmail officials for him, but he has been ruthless and unkind. You’re going to kill me in the end, shouldn’t you feel guilty for me?!”

"Since my aunt says he is unkind and unkind, isn't it ridiculous to place her hope in his guilt and intolerance?"

Ling Buhuo sneered at her strong words. He knew very well that his aunt had been pampered by her father and brother since she was a child. She was willful and domineering. She only had herself in mind and did things regardless of the consequences. But the root cause was the doting of her parents and the love of her brothers. Indulgence was her original sin for half her life.

Princess Helan was speechless and remained silent for a long time. She hid in the dark and cursed: "Under imperial power, people's hearts can change at any time. Don't get too proud too early. Ling Ziyu is not a good man. He wants a beauty today." If you don’t care about the country, there’s no telling what the future will bring. It’s only a matter of time before your brothers turn against each other, and even the same mother cannot escape this fate.”

"Auntie seems to be hoping that we will have bad feelings and fight against each other! But if Ling Ziyu is interested in the country, I really can't ask for it. Why don't you go and persuade him?" Ling Buhuo spread his hands and said sarcastically.

"Hmph, who can say for sure what the future will bring?!"

"Uncle Wang and my father are brothers from the same mother. Now they are more than sixty years old. Even if Uncle Wang has been unwilling to do so, he has no intention of disobedience. The title of 'Fucheng' says it all. But you, my aunt, have two parents." Ling's most powerful brother takes care of you, and you have all the honor and glory, but you still have to dig your own grave without knowing how to advance or retreat. Compared with the emperor's uncle, do you have bad intentions or bad luck?"

"Even if I am in prison, it is not the turn of a junior like you to teach me a lesson!" Princess Helan rushed out of the darkness, clasped her hands on the iron railings of the prison, and shouted angrily with a ferocious face.

"I don't dare, I just don't understand. Even if my aunt thinks that brotherhood is fragile, what about the relationship between mother and child? Even if Ji He is not your uncle's flesh and blood, he is still a child you gave birth to in ten months of pregnancy. You use her life as a stepping stone. , to protect his safety, he even ordered a killer to ambush him, are you really so heartless?"

"You're talking nonsense!" Princess Helan shook the prison bars vigorously and roared.

"Is it nonsense about Ji He's life experience, or is it my aunt's murderous intention?"

Ling Ziyu sneered and continued to expose the secret that Princess Helan had hidden for many years and was most reluctant to mention.

"Back then, in order to stimulate my uncle, my aunt did not hesitate to have an affair with a domestic servant, but my uncle had already given up all hope. You were pregnant out of shame and anger, and to protect your reputation, you did not hesitate to poison Ji He's biological father and uncle one after another. Have you forgotten? ? If my father and Uncle Wang hadn’t protected you and appeased the Ji family back then, I’m afraid my aunt wouldn’t be alive now.”

"Shut up! Shut up! It wasn't me who did it. He'er is Brother Sibu's child, it's his!"

Princess Helan lost control of her emotions and cried when she mentioned the past that she least wanted to look back on.

"Auntie has taken too many wrong paths over the years, and she should wake up now." Ling Buhuo sighed deeply. He actually didn't want to provoke this dying person, but she was too persistent and extreme. Only in this way could she Face the sins you have committed.

"As far as we are concerned, no matter who Ji He's biological father is, as long as it is an aunt's child, it is a collateral bloodline of the Ling family. Both I and Ling Ziyu will treat her well in the future. The same goes for Ji Huan."

He didn't want to say any more unnecessary words, so he left these words and turned to leave.

"Before I die, there is no need for them to come to see me. Tell my elder brother that I want to be cremated and my bones will return to heaven and earth and never enter reincarnation."

"Okay." Ling Buhuo turned around and promised.

After Princess Helan finished explaining this, she slowly walked into the darkness again, murmuring: "I won't see you again, I won't see you again..."

Gu Yuchu listened to everything silently in the corner. He did not feel the pleasure of revenge. Instead, his heart was extremely heavy. He just felt that all living beings were suffering, regardless of status.

She leaned against the wall of the corridor in a daze, and it wasn't until Ling Buhuo stood in front of her silently that she came back to her senses and smiled nonchalantly. However, as she expected, the man walked around her with a cold face. Go outside.

The woman didn't care, and followed him leisurely, not too many steps, not too many steps, until she arrived at the entrance of Dali Temple. She saw that there were only two horses, and Ling Buhuo got on the horse alone without caring about her, so she turned around Deliberately teasing Wu Cen who was at a loss at the side.

"Xiao Wucen, my legs hurt, why don't you give me a ride."

Wu Cen broke out in a cold sweat. He glanced at the gloomy young master nervously and quickly replied, "No, no, let the general ride the horse. I'll walk back."

"That's not okay. I'm not heavy. Do you dislike me?"

"Don't you dare!" Wu Cen waved his hand quickly, put the reins into Gu Yuchu's hand, and started to run away, but she caught him back.

Wu Cen's face turned red and he didn't dare to take a breath. Ling Buhuo couldn't stand it anymore, so he stretched out his hand in front of the woman.

Gu Yuchu raised her eyebrows triumphantly and smiled to herself. She put her hand up without hesitation. The man pulled hard and she fell steadily into the familiar embrace.
