late night song

Chapter 80 The truth suddenly emerges
As expected, as Gu Yuchu expected, all parents in the world have long-term plans for their children, even Princess Chaoyang was no exception. She led a group of followers out of Prince Qin's Mansion and rushed to Zhengyang Gate without stopping.

This was very good. She was the late emperor's favorite eldest daughter. She had a noble status. She also held the royal orders of the late emperor and the Ming Emperor. She could enter the palace at any time without being summoned.

Ever since Nanxi became pregnant in ancient times, Princess Chaoyang has been coming to the palace every day. Gu Yuchu also thought about it for a long time before he came up with this idea.The palace was heavily guarded and she couldn't force her way in. She couldn't enter the palace openly, so she had to ask a giant Buddha to stand in the way and take the opportunity to sneak in.

Then, Gu Yuchu instructed Liansheng to go to the kitchen to supervise the medicinal diet. She changed into clothes similar to those of a maid, and quietly followed the eldest princess's attendants before entering Zhengyang Gate, and finally managed to sneak into the palace.

Now that we have entered the palace, everything will be much easier. Although no one except the personal maids can follow Princess Chaoyang into the harem, it does not matter.

She was very familiar with the Queen's Fulin Palace. She had shown the entire topographic map before opening the palace, so it was not difficult for her to sneak into the closed Fulin Palace without being discovered.

What's more, the palace that used to be lively and gorgeous is now extremely empty. The main door of the main palace is locked and the doors and windows are sealed. Except for the two maids who are serving, not even a wild cat can be seen.

Gu Yuchu quickly knocked out the two serving maids, stuffed their mouths and noses, and tied them together.After that, he opened the door lock with the iron needle he brought with him.

She pushed the door open and saw Qi Anran, neatly dressed and sitting in front of the bronze mirror, carefully counting the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes that could not be smoothed away, but the wind crown on her head was still as bright as new.

In the past, she was a dignified, virtuous, and graceful queen. Even if the beauties in the harem changed one after another, she never paid any attention to her. Even now that the power of Zhenxi King has been emptied out and she is in jail, she does not want to let others have the opportunity to look down on her. She looked dejected.

"The Queen." Gu Yuchu said unhurriedly.

Qi Anran turned around and saw her. He was surprised at first, but then quickly regained his composure.

"Why are you? Hehe, it seems that I underestimated you." She mocked.

"But I overestimated you." Gu Yuchu laughed that she couldn't see clearly what her fate was going to be like today.

"What are you doing here? Last time, you released Zhang Yuyuan's girl privately. What about this time? Are you here to rescue me?" Qi Anran was not angry, but started chatting with her.

"Exactly! I came here to rescue the empress from the palace on the order of the old prince!" Just as he was worried about how to say something, Gu Yuchu heard her say this and had an idea, so he made up such a lie.

"You lied. If you were really my grandpa's man, why didn't you just kill Qi Jian instead of looking far away to save me?!" Qi Anran was still calm and composed, twirling the white hair on his temples in front of the mirror, obviously not believing it.

"Ever since the assassination failed that day, the Prince of Qin's Mansion has been heavily guarded. Besides, King Qin's martial arts are superb, and it is impossible for me to succeed. Now the Queen is being held hostage in the palace, and the old prince's movements are restricted, so he specifically asked me to rescue you. Palace, we will make big plans later.”

Gu Yuchu explained matter-of-factly that she had thought carefully about it at home for a long time. If she directly questioned Yuchi about his past, the queen would not tell the truth and could only start from other directions.

"A big plan?" The Queen's jade fingers were frozen on her temples, and her eyebrows were slightly knitted. She had some hope in her heart, but soon became suspicious, "The Zhenxi army is no longer under the command of grandpa, so how can we have a big plan?"

"My Majesty, you underestimate the old prince. He has been on the battlefield for more than [-] years, and he still has a few loyal subordinates. It's too late, your Majesty, you'd better leave with me quickly." Gu Yuchu pretended to be anxious. He took a few steps forward, ready to pull her away.

But Qi Anran was not that easy to deceive. She stood up and took a few steps back, still not believing this woman.Gu Yuchu was the royal concubine of King Qin and Qi Jian's beloved, so how could she be easily used by her grandfather.

"The big plan? Come and listen." She pushed Gu Yuchu's arm away, sat down again calmly, and asked.

"Use Beiling's power to cause a coup." Gu Yu first thought about Qi Sheng's rebellion, so he made it up randomly.

"Beiling's power? Palace change?" Qi Anran suddenly laughed. He was already convinced that the woman in front of him was lying to her, but he had nothing to do, so he planned to have a good time with her, so he continued to ask:
"Why is Beiling willing to help us?"

"In the Eastern Continent, Dongqi is Beiling's strongest opponent. No big country can expect civil strife in Dongqi like Beiling."

"Selling out the country for personal gain and seeking glory? The old prince has lived an upright life, how could he fall into the footsteps of Qi Sheng?"

Qi Anran initially guessed that Gu Yuchu was following the instructions of Emperor Ming and Qi Jian to trick her. She must not let them get any unfavorable leverage, so she rejected it outright.

"How do you know your grandpa is not that kind of person?"

Gu Yuchu knew that he had been seen through, so he simply stopped pretending and mentioned old things.

"In order to compete with the Northern Qi Dynasty, strengthen the power of Zhenxi, and to support you and Qi Yinan to win the world, he did not hesitate to frame Concubine Yi for conspiring to defeat the rebellion, and he even went to his mother's house. What do you think he is like? people?"

Qi Anran remained silent, as if he didn't hear anything.

"Is he very good to you? Just because he trained you to be Queen Dongqi? Yes. The little Queen Yuchi refused to let the prince marry you, so he forced you to marry the current emperor. He also spent all his efforts. How can you be a mother? The world should indeed thank him."

Qi Anran remained unmoved. Gu Yuchu felt a little anxious, so he continued to stimulate her with words.

"But if you didn't have uncles, lost your parents, and had no brothers, would the old prince still choose you? Just like now, you are imprisoned in this dark and cold palace and have become an abandoned son. Does he care about you at all? "

"What a big joke."

Qi Anran suddenly laughed. Her expression was ferocious, as if she had heard a really funny joke. She had been carefully raised by her grandparents since she was a child. The two of them worked hard for her. This kind of kindness cannot be instigated by others with just a few words.

When Gu Yu first saw that this move was useless, he realized that he was going in the wrong direction, so he started to directly touch the pain point of this virtuous queen.

"Actually, you are not destined to be a mother to the world, but you have to go against the will of heaven. One of your two sons died of illness, and the other was a wanderer and an idiot. This is God's punishment for you."

"Who do you think you are?! What nonsense are you talking about? My Feng'er was killed by that bitch Chang Xinyi! My Nan'er is just young and ignorant. They are all the best children!"

Sure enough, her two sons were Qi Anran's biggest weakness. She loudly scolded the younger generation in front of her who didn't understand the difference between respect and inferiority, and began to lose her composure.

This was also the first time she heard someone belittle her son in person. She could suffer all the insults, but she would never allow others to slander them at all, especially the smart eldest son who died young, which was the most difficult thing to let go of in her heart.

"Does this make any sense? One has been dead for a long time, the other has no one to rely on and his future is uncertain."

Killing people first kills the heart. Gu Yu Chujian found a breakthrough, so he stimulated her even more jealously.

Although Qi Anran was furious, even so, she refused to reveal the slightest truth about that year because she was not sure of Gu Yuchu's intention, let alone who she was instructed by, and just looked at her fiercely.At this moment, Gu Yuchu unhurriedly took out the jade bell stolen from Prince Rong's Mansion from his arms, waved it in front of Qi Anran's eyes, and continued to threaten:

"The Queen doesn't recognize this, does she?"

When Qi Anran saw this thing, his expression changed like a bolt from the blue, and he rushed forward to grab it, but missed it.

She was very familiar with this jade bell. It was a relic left by her mother to her. Later, she passed it on to her eldest son. After King Rong was born, he always wore it with him and never left her body.

How could it fall into Gu Yuchu's hands now?Could it be that Prince Rong's Mansion has been controlled by Prince Qin? !The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she shouted angrily with red eyes: "What on earth do you want to do?"

"Don't you understand, the Queen, that although you have maintained this false reputation, you are still in danger, let alone Prince Rong's Mansion? What I took away today is this jade bell, but I don't know what I will take away tomorrow."

Gu Yuchu raised his eyebrows, smiled slightly, and threatened every word.

"Qi Zhan is so courageous. Nan'er is the only legitimate son of the Holy Emperor. How dare he be so arrogant? This world is not his yet!" Qi An angrily smashed the glazed rouge box on the dressing table to the ground, and put the phoenix crown on his head. The hanging pearls and jade trembled with her pounding pulse.

"It seems that the empress still hasn't understood the situation. If father and son weren't connected, how could they easily recruit the West-Suppressing Army without spending a single soldier or harming a single plant or tree? How did you end up like this? And it is even more impossible for me to walk into your Fulin Palace with such arrogance today."

"Qi Yanzhao! What does he want?!" Qi'an suddenly realized that at this time, she did not care about the courtesy of a monarch and a minister and called Emperor Ming by his name.

"The Holy One wants you to write a letter of guilt in your own hand and explain clearly how you framed Concubine Yi and Yuchi Lin." Gu Yuchu used Emperor Ming's holy emperor as an excuse to force Qi Anran to submit.

"Since he has already obtained a confession and evidence, why does he need me to write an incriminating statement?!"

"Only if you, the Queen, tell the truth yourself, can you silence the world and save the royal face, right?"

Qi Anran's eyes widened with anger, his eyes were moist, and he was speechless.

She also knew that Emperor Ming had always been ruthless. Even if he saw Chang Xinyi being forced to jump into a well, he would remain unmoved. But what she didn't expect was that his ruthlessness and indifference were only towards her. Even if she was... He gave everything he had, but never got even the slightest pity or trust from the beginning to the end.

"The lives of Prince Rong and the old prince and his wife are now in the hands of the queen. It is up to you to decide whether to write or not. Anyway, I will go back to report to the Holy Emperor in an hour, so this job can be considered completed."

Gu Yuchu had already taken the initiative by threatening the life of the person she cared about.

It only took a few minutes for Qi Anran to go from angry to calm. She knew Emperor Ming's temper very well and knew that she was at the end of her rope. But for the sake of Qi Yinan's life and the reputation of Zhenxi Palace, she could only choose to bear all the responsibilities by herself. , even if he is reviled by the world and criticized by history books, he will not hesitate.

She silently walked to the book desk, spread out the queen's royal silk, picked up the brush, and started writing quickly.After a while, she wrote the confession and threw it viciously to the woman in front of her.

Gu Yuchu scanned it briefly and found that the handwriting described the frame-up of Concubine Yi in great detail, but did not mention anything about Yuchilin. This made her heart start to tremble, and she knew that she was close to the truth. .

But she still had some illusions and asked:

"Why didn't you mention the Yuchilin case?"

"I have never regretted anything I have done, but I have no regrets about anything I have never done."

"It's not relevant to you, but it doesn't mean it's not relevant to Old Wang Zhenxi. Since the Holy Emperor has acknowledged it all, I advise you not to resist needlessly."

"What if I don't write it?" Qi Anran responded with a cold eyebrow and was very tough.

"Then I'm sorry. If I don't handle the first errand assigned to me by the Holy Lord, how will I be able to secure my position as Prince Qin's concubine in the future? I think the empress also knows very well that I have the skills to do it." , and it’s not just a matter of showing off your skills and embroidering your legs. If your Majesty doesn’t let me have an easy time, I will give you back your precious son twice as much.”

Gu Yuchu turned his wrist and rubbed the jade bell, looking provocatively at this once infinitely beautiful mother of all peoples.

She actually wants an answer more than this handwriting, but if there is never an answer, then this handwriting is her last bargaining chip to clear up Yuchi's grievances, so she must let the queen write down the charges in her own hand, even if she is wronged How about it, everyone is selfish sometimes, right? !
"You are shameless! He is even more shameless!" Qi Anran's chest heaved and he cursed loudly, and then he questioned with dark eyes: "The Yuchi case has been concluded for a long time, why do you have to bring up the old matter again and let me take the blame!"

"My wife has committed many crimes, so this extra offense is nothing. Besides, you are so smart, you will definitely be able to figure it out."

Gu Yuchu remained calm and continued to lie: "The case between Concubine Yi and Yuchilin is very involved. If Concubine Yi is wronged, but Yuchilin is still guilty, this is unreasonable and rumors will spread. With all the hard work and hard work the empress has saved over the years, With his reputation as a virtuous and virtuous man, people in the world will probably think that the Holy Emperor is ignorant and was instigated by the King of Qin to unjustly accuse the virtuous Emperor for the sake of his beloved concubine’s posthumous reputation. Do you think our Holy Emperor would let such a thing happen?"

"Has he done something shady? Don't you know it in your heart? But he still wants to be the wise king and holy master of this world?! Hahaha." Qi Anran's eyes were sharp and he sneered while gritting his teeth and continuing to write. Keep writing.

Speaking of which, it couldn't be more obvious.

Gu Yuchu clenched her fists tightly and her palms were moist. Her suspicions that she had denied countless times had now come true. The enemy of her Yuchi family was none other than the biological father of her beloved!

After another period of time for adding incense, the queen finished writing the second confession and threw it on the ground.

Facing the queen's humiliation, Gu Yuchu was not satisfied. She bent down to pick up the silk and checked it carefully.Very good, in this way, the Yuchi family's grievances can be considered to have another way out.

"Thank you for your hard work, my wife, please resign!"

Gu Yuchu put away the silk and turned to leave, but before taking two steps, he turned back, looked at the queen who was sitting in front of the desk in a daze, and asked the question that had been lingering in her mind but had no answer.

"I'm very curious. Do the old prince and the Yuchi clan really have no hatred at all?"

The queen didn't answer. Time was running out, so Gu Yuchu had to give up. But when she was about to leave, Qi Anran laughed crazily, as if nothing mattered.

"Yu Chihong harmed his ancestors and grandpa due to the epidemic. This is the sin planted by Yuchi's family, and it should be repaid by his descendants. Hahahaha..."

"What about the sins you have committed, my dear wife?"

When Gu Yuchu saw the lost queen, he frowned deeply, put down the question and turned away, leaving Qi Anran, who was crying and laughing, crazy and frightened, alone in this majestic, gorgeous, ruthless and cold palace. All sanity and hope were wasted in it.
