Lord Quan teases Houmen's poisonous wife
Chapter 209
Chapter 209
"Father!" Helian Shuang had been crying for a long time. He stumbled to the front and knelt down, his eyes were red and swollen from crying, "You can't be so arbitrary. The crime of the ancestors, the second cousin can't be so stupid." Kowtow, "I also ask the father to be merciful!"
Emperor Yonglong's eyes were bloodshot, and he was exhausted physically and mentally in just this moment, looking down at his beloved little daughter, his heart felt as if someone had stabbed him back and forth with a knife, the pain was so painful that it was difficult to breathe.
"Shuang'er, go back and sit." Empress Luo obviously disapproved of Helian Shuang's pleading at this time, not to mention that there is no room for maneuver in this matter, just because it is so cold outside, even if it is warmer inside the hall, the floor is still It's cold, she kneels like this with her body in her arms, what should she do if she wants to kneel down?
"Mother, my son will not leave." Helian's tears rolled down, "The mother believes in my son, and this matter will definitely turn around. It is impossible for the grandfather's family to rebel, and the second cousin is upright, let alone for the sake of I don’t care about my family’s selfishness.”
Empress Luo's eyes were calm, and she didn't comment on He Lianshuang's words, not even saying that she believed in the Luo family's words.
Emperor Yonglong watched Empress Luo the whole time. No matter how frightened and angry the courtiers reacted, no matter how the two princes, He Lianyu and He Lianxun, attacked the Luo family, he seemed to have never heard of it. At this moment, what he wanted most was What I know is Lan'er's attitude.
He was praying that even if she shed a tear or yelled a wrong for the Luo family, he could find a reason for himself to turn the Luo family back.
But no.
From the time of the accident to the present, his favorite queen has been very quiet.
"Concubine, I have nothing to say." These words were still lingering in his ears, it was more like a sharp knife piercing his heart so bloody.
There was nothing to say... She pleaded guilty in an absolutely quiet manner.
Lan'er, what do you tell me to do?
"Mother!" He Lianjin and He Lian both shouted in unison.
I've never seen the empress mother so calm, so calm that it makes people feel chilling, she doesn't hesitate to speak, and she can't see that she has anything to hide. All expressions and reactions indicate that she is pleading guilty.
The voices of civil and military officials, He Lianyu and He Lianxun attacking the Luo family kept coming, and He Lianjin couldn't bear it anymore, "Shut up!"
With a stern shout, he was filled with overwhelming anger.
The civil and military officials were frightened into silence, and He Lianyu looked at He Lianjin with a half-smile.
This time, no matter how hard you try, you won't be able to save the Luo family!
Concubine Xiao Huanggui's face was full of ambition, although she didn't make a sound, the faint flash of light in her eyes had already betrayed her happy mood.
After being stepped on by a woman for so many years, I finally have a chance to stand up, Luo Lan, this round, it's up to you how you can escape!
The Empress Dowager, who had been silent all this time, suddenly slapped the table heavily, "The emperor ordered the convict woman Luo to be thrown into limbo, are you all deaf?"
The criminal woman Luo.
He directly took off Luo Lan's title of queen in a few words.
Emperor Yonglong gritted his teeth, and gave Empress Dowager Xiao a bitter look.
Empress Dowager Xiao turned a blind eye to his gaze, it was already at this time, the emperor still wanted to protect that woman, what she said in the early years, if she continued to favor her like this, sooner or later the country of Nanliang would bring disaster to the country and the people because of this A woman is going into decline, and today's great opportunity to abolish the empress is in front of her eyes, but the emperor is still so confused. Since the emperor can't bear it, let her be the surgeon. The Luo family rebelled, and the evidence is solid. There are ministers standing on the side of Guozhang's mansion.
The queen mother's voice fell, and a large number of imperial forest soldiers poured into the outside immediately, and raised the queen Luo who was kneeling on the ground three or two times.
"Lan'er..." Emperor Yonglong's heart was shaken before he murmured.
"Emperor!" The Empress Dowager yelled angrily, and forcibly pulled his eyes back, "Are you going to shield the rebels and traitors in front of civil and military officials?"
Emperor Yonglong pursed his lips tightly, his chest rose and fell sharply.He wanted to protect Lan'er, but the evidence of the Luo family's rebellion was solid, so he had nothing to say.
"Jin'er, Shuang'er, you brothers and sisters, take care, the queen mother is leaving now." Empress Luo looked at the two children, no matter how calm her face was, she had to admit that the moment she really wanted to separate was like a knife cutting her heart.
"Mother's queen..." Helian grabbed Empress Luo's sleeves to prevent her from leaving, crying until she couldn't utter a word.
"Jin'er, take your sister down."
When the catastrophe came, she was still a high-ranking queen, her emotions were not flustered, and her appearance was not compromised.Seeing this scene made Concubine Xiao's teeth itch, she wished she could pour the wine in the cup directly on that bitch's face.
He has already fallen into the opponent's trap, if he messes up again at this time, then this round will be completely lost, He Lianjin suppressed his anger, and dragged He Lian Shuang back to his original position and sat down.
Empress Luo was escorted to the Leng Palace by the Imperial Forest Army.
Emperor Yonglong watched the fiery red figure, and his hand on the dragon chair almost crushed the whole chair.
No one expected that the originally joyful New Year's Eve banquet would unexpectedly change suddenly. Luo Shuxuan's collusion with the enemy and treason were so hard to prove. Sigh.
Empress Luo has been favored by the emperor since she entered the palace, and she has already caused a lot of dissatisfaction among the concubines and former ministers. Now that the Phoenix has fallen, there are naturally many people watching the show.
At the end of the palace banquet, He Lian Shuang cried so hard that he wanted to go to the Foreign Minister of Yugan Palace to kneel and beg for mercy, but in the end it was the son-in-law who persuaded her to go back.
Consort Xiao graciously supported the Empress Dowager and left first.
Immediately afterwards, all civil and military officials also brought their families to leave the banquet one after another.
The entire Jade Fu Temple was left empty and silent.
Emperor Yonglong sat on the dragon chair, his eyes were lifeless, dead silent and empty.
Eunuch Zhang couldn't bear it, "Your Majesty, it's late at night, you should go back to the palace for bed."
"Go to bed?" Emperor Yonglong sneered coldly, how could he sleep peacefully without Lan'er?
"Excuse me, I'm going to see Lan'er in Lenggong." Even if it's only for a short while, he still can't rest assured that she won't be used to the dilapidated Lenggong, or she won't be used to being alone.
"Your Majesty!" Eunuch Zhang hurriedly stopped him with a solemn expression, "The empress has just been escorted there. At this time, I think there are many people around the Leng Palace who are the empress dowager and the imperial concubine. Even if the emperor wants to visit the empress, he should wait a little longer. A few days, otherwise, if you go now, you will inevitably lose your tongue, and you will harm the empress instead."
Only then did Emperor Yonglong wake up. Indeed, Eunuch Zhang was right. If he insisted on going to the Leng Palace at this time, the Empress Dowager would definitely feel that he was too biased. Shi can use any means at will to put Lan'er to death.
Seeing that Lan'er was missing, he felt uneasy.
"Let's drive to Weiyang Palace, I'll stay there tonight." It's good to feel her breath without seeing anyone.
Eunuch Zhang sighed softly, throughout the ages, there is probably only one emperor who can be so emphatic in love and righteousness.
Knowing that Emperor Yonglong was in a bad mood, Eunuch Zhang was very cooperative and didn't say much, and directly drove to Weiyang Palace.
Emperor Yonglong stood at the door, looking at the empty and silent hall, and suddenly felt a sense of sadness in his heart. An hour ago, he had embraced her in this place, thinking in his heart that she could spend the 97-year-old New Year's Eve with him. It can be expected that after an hour, it will still be an extremely familiar place, but the tea is already cold.
"Lan'er." The usually clear and bright eyes suddenly faded like a flower in the epiphyllum, and he stretched out his hand, but he couldn't touch her again.
Eunuch Zhang felt uncomfortable, he knew that when the emperor came to Weiyang Palace, it would be impossible to sleep peacefully again, because this place is missing that person!
Can't persuade, dare not persuade, he can only be a deaf-mute, watching the sad back of the emperor silently from the corner of his eye.
This night, the Weiyang Palace was brightly lit, people were still awake under the lights, their eyes were bloodshot red, the whole night was mournful, and the hall was filled with sorrow.
That night, the cold wind blew the decayed window lattices in the cold palace, and people sat alone under the windows, their hair buns flying in the cold night, losing their former luster, like withered weeds.
That night, Shou Renbo's mansion was charged with "collaboration with the enemy and treason". The entire family, including Luo Shuxuan, was imprisoned, and no one was spared.
Some are happy and some are sad.
When Su Yan returned to the Duke's Mansion, Yun Chuwei had already fallen asleep because he couldn't wait. Her petite body was huddled under the velvet quilt, her shoulders shrank a little, and her breathing was weak. She looked like the last piece of autumn on a dead tree that was about to wither. Ye, people can't help feeling pity from the bottom of my heart.
"Wei Wei." Su Yan gently caressed her side face with his fingers, but his mind was a little distracted, like a wounded little animal, only from her could he find some comfort.
Yun Chu fell into a drowsy sleep, vaguely heard a few whispers in his ear, and smelled the familiar fragrance of orchid orchid, turned over and subconsciously arched in his direction, but did not move to the warm embrace he expected In her sleep, she inadvertently frowned, then opened her eyelids.
He sat under the soft candlelight, his facial features were so handsome and exquisite.
Yun Chu, who was half asleep and half awake, smacked his lips slightly, "Master Jiu, are you back?"
Su Yan nodded lightly, "Yes."
"I'm too sleepy." She rubbed her eyes, and with his help sat up with her waist supported, her head rubbing against his arm, apologetic, "I didn't mean to wait for you."
"Sleep if you're sleepy!" Su Yan said softly, "You can watch the fireworks any day."
"Don't you blame me?" Yun Chu slightly raised his eyes to look at him.
Su Yan shook his head, then laughed, "Why are you to blame?"
Yun Chu sniffed slightly, then rubbed against his arms, "Is the palace banquet tonight lively?"
"It's very lively." Su Yan was fascinated by the tassels swinging back and forth on the bedpost, and unconsciously his tone was a little lonely.
"Come up and tell me quickly." Yun Chuwei moved towards the wall, lifted the velvet quilt with one hand, and signaled him to lie down on the couch.
Su Yan didn't refuse, lying beside her in his clothes, he naturally stretched out his arms to make her a pillow to lean on.
Yun Chu took a close look at him, "Master Jiu, I can tell that you are upset because I didn't wait for you to come back to watch the fireworks together?"
"Silly girl." Su Yan tilted his head, showed her a warm smile, and rubbed her head again, "Am I such a stingy person?"
"But Master Jiu said that the palace banquet was very lively, but he was unhappy in his heart. There must be something wrong!" She smiled, her eyelashes fluttering, and behind her slyness was the hope that he could share his thoughts with her.
Su Yan closed his eyes and said slowly: "The Luo family rebelled, the entire family was imprisoned, and Empress Luo was thrown into limbo."
The smile on Yun Chuwei's face suddenly froze, "Master Jiu is joking, right?"
With a backstage supporter as big as the queen, the Luo family's status will only rise steadily in the future, how could they rebel?
"The evidence is solid." Su Yan said again.
Yun Chu's breathing froze for a moment, "Can't Master Jiu save them?"
Although she didn't have a good impression of Luo Yushan, she didn't have such a deep hatred for the Luo family. What's more, because of Princess Yongchun, she had some kindness towards the Luo family. Being imprisoned made Yun Chuwei feel uncomfortable.
Su Yan said meaningfully: "Wei Wei, not all frontal shots are called redemption, there is another kind of redemption, which is called death and rebirth."
Yun Chuwei seemed to understand, she didn't know why Master Jiu said this to herself, but no matter what he did, she would support and believe him unconditionally.
There is such a person in this world, no matter how heinous he is in the eyes of the world, she will never doubt that that person is her husband, who tied his hair on the day of marriage, drank Hentai wine, and confessed to her many times Heartfelt husband.
She believed him only because he was Su Yan, the only person in this world who could make her give her heart.
"Hey, go to sleep!" he said softly, patting her on the back like a pet.
Yun Chuwei slowly closed his eyes.
In the room on a winter night, the light gauze is warm, the thick curtain and the warm earth dragon inside the room cut off all the cold outside. She nestled in his arms and slept soundly.
-
With such a big incident happening to the Luo family, He Lianjin could only come to find Su Yan, an underground military adviser, but no matter how many times he came, Su Yan would avoid him, either playing chess in the teahouse, or staying with Yun Chu Wei, he seemed to be planning to just let go and ignore He Lianjin anymore.
These days, He Lianjin has exhausted his manpower and financial resources, emptied his mind and could not find any evidence that is beneficial to the Luo family. Being able to knock on the door of the Duke's Mansion over and over again, but Su Yan never saw him again, He Lianjin was just a little skeptical at first, but after being rejected a few times, he became more and more convinced that there must be something behind the Luo family to come to this point. Su Yan's handwriting, otherwise, if you look at the whole of Nanliang, you will not be able to find a second person who is so calculating. For a person like He Lianyu, he can't afford to hire a high-ranking adviser.
So, are the so-called "evidences" that accuse the Luo family of rebellion all planned by Su Yan, who he considers to be his brother-in-law?
hatred!He Lianjin hated it so much, why did someone whom he trusted so much in two lifetimes betray him?
What is the charm of He Lianyu? In the previous life, Han'er was willing to sacrifice her body. In this life, Su Yan hibernated by her side to set up such a big murderous situation. The scene of the palace banquet night is still vividly remembered head.
His self-confidence all the time, in Su Yan's eyes, is just a big joke, right?
Being turned away again, He Lianjin looked at the plaque of the Duke's Mansion and laughed wildly. The brotherhood of the past was shattered into pieces with his distracted gaze, and it stabbed his heart, causing his heart to convulse in pain. After being exhausted for many days, a mouthful of blood spewed out, and he passed out.
Even after receiving the news that He Lianjin passed out in front of the gate of the Duke's Mansion, Su Yan did not move. He just ordered someone to send him back to the mansion safely and there was no further follow-up.
-
The verbal criticism from the civil and military courts of the Manchu Dynasty and the intimidation of the Empress Dowager Xiao brought Emperor Yonglong's spirit to the brink of collapse.
It's all for one thing, to kill the Luo clan and abolish the queen.
Emperor Yonglong didn't want to, didn't want to, but he couldn't withstand the attack of so many people, he was exhausted physically and mentally, and his whole body was about to fall apart.
Anxiety, worry, hesitation, uneasiness.
After seven days of lovesickness and suffering, he finally decided to go to Lenggong to see her.
In the cold palace at that time, Empress Luo sat in front of the window, staring at the white snow outside in a daze.
It's the seventh day, the Luo clan has been exterminated long ago, right?The decree of the abolished empress has not yet come, is the emperor still deadlocked?
"The Emperor is here—"
The eunuch's voice came through the cold wind.
Empress Luo was shocked, this day finally came.
What else is prepared for her besides the imperial edict to abolish the empress, poisoned wine, white silk, or a dagger?
After a while, it should be her desperate situation in this life, right?
Empress Luo unhurriedly took out the kit Su Yan had prepared for her from her sleeve pocket.
When she was sitting in front of the bronze mirror at the palace banquet that day, she really wanted to take it out to see what was hidden in it, but in the end she held back her curiosity and came to the cold palace to change into the queen's big attire. Hide this thing quietly.
Pale fingertips gently opened the kit, and there was a ball of paper and a pill inside. Empress Luo opened the ball of paper and saw a few lines written on it.
The more she went down, the more shocked the expression on her face became, so much so that she almost forgot to react after reading the whole letter.
The footsteps outside the door were getting closer, Empress Luo stood up suddenly, put the ball of paper on the candlestick and burned it to ashes, then stuffed the pill into her mouth and swallowed it.
The heavy door with mottled and peeling paint was pushed open with a "squeak".
Empress Luo immediately knelt down, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the bright yellow corner embroidered with dragon patterns.
"The criminal woman has seen the emperor."
Kneeling on the ground, Empress Luo's voice was slightly hoarse, but she couldn't distinguish between emotions and anger.
Emperor Yonglong lowered his eyes. In the past, the queen who was pampered by him as a peony, now she was in a mess and knelt down in front of him with a haggard appearance.
He suddenly felt pain like gouging out the heart and scraping the bone, and his eyes showed deep sadness.
"Lan'er, get up quickly."
Luo Lan didn't say anything, but subconsciously flinched when he was about to reach out to support her, and then stood up by herself, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Looking up, he saw that Eunuch Zhang was empty-handed, without imperial decree, poisonous wine, white silk and dagger, he was surprised.
Facing her delicate face, Emperor Yonglong was heartbroken, "I'm sorry Lan'er, I... can't protect you." It has been seven days, even if he dispatched the most efficient Jinyiwei, the result was the same, the Luo family rebelled, and it was a certainty.
Expecting such an ending, Empress Luo smiled wryly, "Your Majesty, you don't have to blame yourself, the Luo family rebelled, and this concubine deserves what she deserves."
These words were undoubtedly to sprinkle more salt on Emperor Yonglong's bloody wound. His face was full of pain, and the struggle in his eyes made his whole body tremble slightly.
"I have a wish, can the emperor fulfill it for me?" Empress Luo's eyes were firm, and there was a burst of pleading in the firmness.
Not to mention one, he is very willing to have ten or a hundred, "Lan'er, tell me."
"The guilty concubine implores the emperor to set up a son and kill his mother."
After Luo Lan finished speaking, she knelt heavily on the ground again.
It's not like Nanliang didn't have such a precedent. In order to prevent foreign relatives from becoming big, they implemented the policy of "establishing sons and killing mothers" and punishing foreign relatives together.
"Lan'er, you are forcing me." His brows were full of tangles, and his scarlet eyes were full of pain.
She knew that he would not let her die, but she wanted to draw a line with him in this way?
"I hope the emperor will make it happen." Luo Lan's sonorous and forceful voice echoed in the dilapidated hall, and it sounded desolate.
All the discomfort of Emperor Yonglong was blocked in his throat, "Lan'er is so cruel."
If she died, it would be equivalent to dissecting his soul, leaving only a walking corpse in this world.
Even if he raised his head, he couldn't force back the tears. The wise and mighty emperor burst into tears in front of his favored queen at this moment.
Luo Lan turned his eyes away and got rid of all distracting thoughts in his mind so as not to be infected by Emperor Yonglong's emotions. Not long after, a glaring blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
"Your Majesty, I don't have much time to be a concubine." Luo Lan slumped to the ground, the blood on her face decreased sharply, and she gradually turned pale.
"Lan'er!" This scene burned Emperor Yonglong's eyes, he opened his eyes violently, bent down and hugged her into his arms, his voice trembling, "Have you taken poison?"
"Should the emperor be a concubine?" She raised her head, her beautiful eyes were wet and dewy, perhaps due to the effect of the medicine, her voice was incomplete.
"Yes, I just accept you." Emperor Yonglong hugged her tightly, "Isn't it just to make Jin'er the crown prince? Even if there is no such thing as the Luo family, even if you will not leave me, I will hand over the country to him sooner or later The one in your hand is Lan'er, how could you be so stupid, why did you take poison without saying a word, where did you put my heart?"
There was a desolate smile on the corner of Luo Lan's mouth. She always knew that the emperor loved Jin'er in his bones, but Su Yan was right, even if Jin'er was her own son and was favored by the emperor, he couldn't easily sit on the crown prince. Because she is the "demon queen" who favors the sixth palace, she has caused a lot of dissatisfaction, because Jin'er's unruly style in the early years has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Officials' support cannot firmly grasp the hearts of the people.
Under such a stalemate, only a dose of strong medicine can break it.
If there is no Luo family and no halo of the "demon queen", He Lianjin is just a prince who can only rely on himself, and his hidden true ability can be slowly discovered.
"Concubine, thank you, Your Majesty." After finishing speaking, Luo Lan slowly closed her eyes, her arms drooping weakly.
"Lan'er, Lan'er—" Emperor Yonglong hissed and roared, and the tiles on the roof of the cold palace seemed to be shaking.
In the winter of Yonglong's 21st year, the Luo family was abolished after committing a crime, and the Luo family was pushed to the execution platform. On that day, the river of blood flowing outside the Meridian Gate stained half the sky.
If the halo of a queen fades away, one cannot be buried with the ceremony of a queen. Originally, in Luo Lan's situation, it is very possible to be murdered in the wilderness, but how could Emperor Yonglong allow his beloved woman to be treated like this, even if he could not give the ceremony of a queen? , but also to organize the funeral neatly.
On the day when Luo's coffin was buried, the imperial decree to enshrine the crown prince arrived at Prince Jin's Mansion. Everything went against what He Lianyu had expected in advance. He was so angry that he accidentally killed several servants all morning. With a thick layer of haze, everyone acted and spoke with extra caution.
After receiving the prince's seal and changing into the prince's python robe, the first thing He Lianjin did was not to enter the palace to meet the emperor, but took a sword and rode on a fast horse to the Duke Xuanguo's mansion aggressively.
This time, without him needing to knock on the door again, the door of Duke Xuan Guo's Mansion opened, and Su Yan had already been waiting outside the door for a long time. , wearing ribbons, white socks and black shoes, and the eight-beam crown on the head symbolizes the status of the duke, the standard royal court dress.
Only when he heard the sound of horseshoes approaching, Su Yan knelt down slowly and made a big salute, "My minister, I greet His Highness the Crown Prince."
He Lianjin's eyes were already red with hatred, turned over and jumped off the horse, the long sword in his hand came out of the sheath with a "shua", and the point of the sword that was shining with cold light directly touched Su Yan's chest.
"Su Yan, I trust you so much in vain, is this how you repay me?" Leaving aside his status as the prince, he just wants to talk about brotherhood with him, and wants to cut off his robes and justice, and that is today.
"Congratulations to His Highness the Crown Prince for entering the East Palace." Su Yan continued to speak in an official tone, but the expression on his face did not change a bit because of He Lianjin's actions.
"Why do you want to kill the Luo family and my mother!" He roared, and the tip of the sword moved forward an inch, directly cutting Su Yan's flesh, and a dazzling blood flower bloomed on his clean court clothes.
Blood gurgled from the wound and smeared on the front of his chest. Su Yan didn't seem to feel the pain, but his voice was a little low, "The Luo family and Empress Luo are the main reasons why His Royal Highness can't get the Prince's Seal. Your Highness is kind. , I couldn't bear to move them, so I let this humble minister be the eternal sinner. Even if later generations know the word "true **** minister", it will only fall on the humble minister. Your Highness, you will be the eternal emperor in the eyes of everyone. If you point the country, you will be invincible, and your great achievements will go down in history."
Sure enough it was him!
He Lianjin's eyes were so red that they were about to bleed.
Originally, he still held such a glimmer of hope, thinking that he would hear a different explanation from Su Yan, and he also hoped that he would explain that those things had nothing to do with him, even if it was a lie, he wanted to hear it.
However, Su Yan admitted it so frankly and generously.
The blood in the chest and abdomen kept surging, and there was a fishy-sweet taste in his throat. He Lianjin swallowed it forcefully, and then looked at Su Yan with a determined and cold gaze. With a tightening of his hand, the sword pierced directly into Su Yan. In Yan's heart, the sound of a sharp weapon piercing his flesh made his scalp tingle.
"嗤——" He drew out his sword with a sound, and regardless of Su Yan's bleeding profusely in his chest and his pale face due to excessive blood loss, Helian Jinju looked down at him coldly, "Su Yan, from now on , You and I will cut off the righteousness." What he wanted was Su Yan's wholehearted help, not based on the sacrifice of his biological mother and maternal grandfather's family, even if he later found out that Su Yan was not partial to He Lianyu, He just used extremely dark and extreme means to send him to the position of prince, and he couldn't forgive Su Yan.
He was very unhappy being such a prince.
"My minister, I would like to thank His Highness the Prince for your kindness." Even though he was seriously injured, Su Yan still maintained his kneeling posture until He Lianjin's horse left the street completely, and he closed his eyes because of exhaustion Passed out.
"Jiuye!" Panic exclamations suddenly sounded from all around.
-
East Palace, Chonghua Palace.
He Lianjin leaned crookedly on the soft couch, surrounded by empty wine jars, some broken, some with half a jar left, the whole hall smelled of alcohol.
"Your Highness." When Xu Han heard the news and rushed over, he saw such a scene. Even if he couldn't help but get wet eyes, he ran over to stop him, "Why do you humiliate yourself like this?"
"Han'er, you're here." He Lianjin's hoarse voice contained heart-piercing pain. He buried his head in her neck and said after a long time, "I'm uncomfortable."
Overnight, the grandfather's family was condemned for "rebellion", and the birth mother also passed away. Such a heavy blow would be unbearable to anyone who changed it. Xu Han understood him and wiped his tears, "If your Highness is uncomfortable, the concubine will I will be here with you, if you want to cry or do something else, the concubine will be with you."
He Lianjin took a deep breath and asked her: "Han'er, is that position destined to be paved with blood, or is it destined to be a lonely person if you sit in that position?"
He turned against He Lianyu in his previous life because he wanted to take Han'er back from him, so at that time he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his Emperor Road.
But in this life, he sacrificed his biological mother and maternal ancestral family just to become the crown prince. If he wanted to sit in that position, he didn't dare to think about how many people he would have to sacrifice. Will Han'er become his emperor one day? Funeral objects on the road?
It's really hard for Xu Han to answer this kind of question. Otherwise, people in that position call themselves "lonely" and "widowed". "Your Highness, you have just started, don't think too much, no matter what happens in the future, I will always be by His Highness's side."
"Han'er, you are not allowed to leave me." He suddenly hugged her tightly, "I don't have a mother anymore, and I don't want to lose my beloved wife again."
Knowing that he was suffering, she solemnly nodded her head to comfort her, "Well, I will not leave Your Highness."
-
He Lianjin's sword stabbed very deeply, Su Yan's heart was hurt, and Fang Qiqi ran for half a month in the Duke's Mansion before he managed to wake him up.
"Jiuye." On the side of the bed, Yun Chu blinked his wet eyes slightly, wanting to cry the moment he opened his mouth.
"Wei Wei, don't cry." He covered her eyes first, "I won't die, I promised to accompany you to grow old! I haven't fulfilled my promise, how dare I leave you alone."
After speaking, my throat was itchy and I couldn't help coughing.
"Master Jiu, lie down quickly." Yun Chuwei suddenly became nervous, "It's just gotten better, Qiqi said you can't walk around yet!"
Su Yan waved his hand, "I'm fine. It's probably because I've been lying down for too long and I can't get used to it. I'll be fine in a while."
Yun Chuwei held his cold fingers with both hands, "Why didn't you resist then?"
The corner of Su Yan's mouth raised, "Thunder, rain and dew are all the favor of the king. He is the king, and I am the minister. If he rewards, I have to thank him, and if he punishes, I have to thank him too."
"You're stupid!" Yun Chuwei's eyes were filled with tears, "If I hadn't forced Xiao Ji and Xiao Mu to question, I wouldn't have known that you have carried so much alone. Who is the emperor has nothing to do with us. Is it really worth it for him?"
Su Yan reached out and scratched the tip of her nose, "Didn't you always hope that I could assist He Lianjin?"
"That was in the past." Speaking of this, Yunchu felt regretful, "You should have known that the price you paid for standing in the faction was so high, and I wouldn't push you down this road no matter what I said."
"It's all over." Su Yan smiled, "Although I can't really retire, at least I'm half successful."
"What's the use of half of it?" Yun Chuwei felt distressed, "He has cut off your robes."
Su Yan lowered his eyelashes, "Wei Wei, call Xiao Mu for me, I have something to ask him."
"Jiuye." Yun Chuwei frowned, "Can't you take a good rest for a day?"
Su Yan shook his head, "I don't feel relieved if I don't hear about those people with my own ears."
Yun Chuwei was helpless, got up and went to the outer court to call in Xiao Mu, who was in charge of intelligence from other places.
"Jiu Ye, how do you feel?" Seeing Su Yan's injury, Xiao Mu wished he could drag He Lianjin out and cut him into pieces. What his master did for him was to cut off his robe and judge him?
The emperor is ruthless, that's all!
"Have they all left the capital safely?" Su Yan couldn't help coughing twice, panting slightly.
"Well, I left." Xiao Mu told the truth, "Don't worry, Jiu Ye, the new identity has been arranged, and it is impossible for anyone to find out in this life."
"Just leave." Su Yan nodded and asked again, "So, what about her?"
Xiao Mu paused, "She is safe and sound, and has entered the inner court according to the arrangement of Master Jiu, and now she is waiting for the people in the palace to respond."
Su Yan nodded, "That's good, I've completed my merits and virtues."
Xiao Mu gritted his teeth, "But the prince..." It's really hateful that he is so heartless!
Su Yan raised his hand to stop his next words, "It's none of your business, step back."

On the official road leading to Guangping Mansion, an inconspicuous carriage moved forward slowly, as if it was afraid of people bumping into it.
The light coming in through the window stung Luo Shuxuan's eyes, he frowned uncomfortably, opened his eyelids, and met Jiang Fan'er's calm eyes.
"Miss Jiang?" Luo Shuxuan rubbed his eyes, was he dreaming?He had clearly gone to the execution ground, and if there were no accidents, he should be in Yan Luodian at this time, but how could the person beside him be Jiang Fan'er, could it be that she was also in an accident?
Seeing that Luo Shuxuan finally woke up, Jiang Fan'er felt an inexplicable joy in her heart, but her expression was calm, "Don't look, you're not dead yet!"
Luo Shuxuan froze all of a sudden.
Jiang Fan'er said again: "Not only you, your father, your mother, but also your grandparents and your cousins are all still alive."
"What's going on here?" Luo Shuxuan got excited and grabbed Jiang Fan'er's hand, completely forgetting about the male and female defense, and his eyes were very anxious.
"Before you go to the execution ground, you will be put on a hood. Your whole family is very lucky to have been protected by Duke Xuan, and you will take this opportunity to be replaced by death row prisoners. However, from now on, there will be no more Luo Shuxuan and no Luo family in this world." Now, would you like to come with me?"
Luo Shuxuan looked at her in disbelief, "Then where are we going?"
Jiang Fan'er said: "I'll take you home, back to Guangping Mansion."
Hearing these words, Luo Shuxuan's nose turned sore for no reason, "Miss Jiang, thank you."
"You don't need to thank me, I just cooperated with Duke Xuan Guo a little bit, if you want to thank him, you should also thank him." Jiang Fan'er said: "For this situation, he was promoted to King Jin, oh no, now he should be called Prince, Prince Misunderstood Duke Xuan, stabbed him with a sword, and cut off his robes since then, and this misunderstanding may not be solved for the rest of his life."
Luo Shuxuan was shocked, "Don't His Royal Highness know this?"
"Of course I don't know, and it's impossible to let him know. From the very beginning, Duke Xuan planned to be the sinner himself. Even if he misunderstood the prince for a lifetime, he would use the hands of the virtuous king to destroy the Luo family and make Luo The clan has completely disappeared from the eyes of the world, forcing the emperor to 'make the son kill the mother', although the tactics are extreme, but it cannot be denied that this is the only way for King Jin to enter the East Palace earlier."
"Then my aunt..."
"The title of Empress Luo no longer exists, but there should be an extra court lady in the inner court. As for whether the emperor can find her, it depends on whether the fate between them is deep or not."
Luo Shuxuan once again opened his mouth wide in surprise, "So, all of this is just an illusion, none of the members of the Luo family died, even my aunt..."
"Well, it's all set up by Xuan Guogong." Jiang Fan'er nodded, "You, after you arrive in Guangping Mansion, follow me to work in the yamen obediently, and don't disappoint Xuan Guogong's painstaking arrangements." Growing up so big , has examined countless corpses, seen countless cases and all kinds of people, she has never admired anyone, but Xuan Guogong is the first person she admires so much, if not for that person is still alive, she Had to cut open his brain with a knife to see what was inside.

Imperial City, Changxin Palace.
"Imperial Concubine, the latest batch of palace servants is here. Do you want to choose by yourself?"
Imperial Concubine Xiao lazily leaned against the beauty. Luo Lan's death made her feel quite happy recently, and she even became interested in these small things, "Well, let someone come in!"
As soon as the words fell, a group of palace servants who had just been trained by the inner court walked in from outside, wearing light-colored clothes.
Concubine Xiao's eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, and finally landed on the second one.
I don't know why, I have never seen this person before, but I feel that he has a good face.
"You, raise your head." Concubine Xiao Huanggui pointed to the palace maid, "What's your name?"
"Go back to your mother, servant girl Qiulan."
Qiulan?
Concubine Xiao Huanggui's face sank, "I will change my name to Mallow from now on." This means that she is going to be kept.
Turning her gaze to the grand lady, Imperial Concubine Xiao ordered: "From now on, no one in Changxin Palace is allowed to have 'Lan' in their name, even homonyms."
The palace maid who was renamed "Mallow" lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes. At an angle where no one could see, the corners of her mouth curled up, revealing a hint of coldness.
Recommendation: "Medical Woman in Charge: Mountain Man, Don't Be Too Pampered" Farming + House Fighting + Space + 1v1 + Shuangjie】Author: Xueyan
A modern agricultural graduate student traveled through ancient times, was raised as a grandson by his grandfather, and was coveted by a fat woman. He took off his pants for a body check. How did he get away with this tone?
This incident happened to be bumped into by a beautiful man in Xinghua Village. Did he kill her to silence her, or drag her back to be a 'wife' and give birth to a litter of cubs? PS: If you like it, you can move to the text, meme chirp
(End of this chapter)
"Father!" Helian Shuang had been crying for a long time. He stumbled to the front and knelt down, his eyes were red and swollen from crying, "You can't be so arbitrary. The crime of the ancestors, the second cousin can't be so stupid." Kowtow, "I also ask the father to be merciful!"
Emperor Yonglong's eyes were bloodshot, and he was exhausted physically and mentally in just this moment, looking down at his beloved little daughter, his heart felt as if someone had stabbed him back and forth with a knife, the pain was so painful that it was difficult to breathe.
"Shuang'er, go back and sit." Empress Luo obviously disapproved of Helian Shuang's pleading at this time, not to mention that there is no room for maneuver in this matter, just because it is so cold outside, even if it is warmer inside the hall, the floor is still It's cold, she kneels like this with her body in her arms, what should she do if she wants to kneel down?
"Mother, my son will not leave." Helian's tears rolled down, "The mother believes in my son, and this matter will definitely turn around. It is impossible for the grandfather's family to rebel, and the second cousin is upright, let alone for the sake of I don’t care about my family’s selfishness.”
Empress Luo's eyes were calm, and she didn't comment on He Lianshuang's words, not even saying that she believed in the Luo family's words.
Emperor Yonglong watched Empress Luo the whole time. No matter how frightened and angry the courtiers reacted, no matter how the two princes, He Lianyu and He Lianxun, attacked the Luo family, he seemed to have never heard of it. At this moment, what he wanted most was What I know is Lan'er's attitude.
He was praying that even if she shed a tear or yelled a wrong for the Luo family, he could find a reason for himself to turn the Luo family back.
But no.
From the time of the accident to the present, his favorite queen has been very quiet.
"Concubine, I have nothing to say." These words were still lingering in his ears, it was more like a sharp knife piercing his heart so bloody.
There was nothing to say... She pleaded guilty in an absolutely quiet manner.
Lan'er, what do you tell me to do?
"Mother!" He Lianjin and He Lian both shouted in unison.
I've never seen the empress mother so calm, so calm that it makes people feel chilling, she doesn't hesitate to speak, and she can't see that she has anything to hide. All expressions and reactions indicate that she is pleading guilty.
The voices of civil and military officials, He Lianyu and He Lianxun attacking the Luo family kept coming, and He Lianjin couldn't bear it anymore, "Shut up!"
With a stern shout, he was filled with overwhelming anger.
The civil and military officials were frightened into silence, and He Lianyu looked at He Lianjin with a half-smile.
This time, no matter how hard you try, you won't be able to save the Luo family!
Concubine Xiao Huanggui's face was full of ambition, although she didn't make a sound, the faint flash of light in her eyes had already betrayed her happy mood.
After being stepped on by a woman for so many years, I finally have a chance to stand up, Luo Lan, this round, it's up to you how you can escape!
The Empress Dowager, who had been silent all this time, suddenly slapped the table heavily, "The emperor ordered the convict woman Luo to be thrown into limbo, are you all deaf?"
The criminal woman Luo.
He directly took off Luo Lan's title of queen in a few words.
Emperor Yonglong gritted his teeth, and gave Empress Dowager Xiao a bitter look.
Empress Dowager Xiao turned a blind eye to his gaze, it was already at this time, the emperor still wanted to protect that woman, what she said in the early years, if she continued to favor her like this, sooner or later the country of Nanliang would bring disaster to the country and the people because of this A woman is going into decline, and today's great opportunity to abolish the empress is in front of her eyes, but the emperor is still so confused. Since the emperor can't bear it, let her be the surgeon. The Luo family rebelled, and the evidence is solid. There are ministers standing on the side of Guozhang's mansion.
The queen mother's voice fell, and a large number of imperial forest soldiers poured into the outside immediately, and raised the queen Luo who was kneeling on the ground three or two times.
"Lan'er..." Emperor Yonglong's heart was shaken before he murmured.
"Emperor!" The Empress Dowager yelled angrily, and forcibly pulled his eyes back, "Are you going to shield the rebels and traitors in front of civil and military officials?"
Emperor Yonglong pursed his lips tightly, his chest rose and fell sharply.He wanted to protect Lan'er, but the evidence of the Luo family's rebellion was solid, so he had nothing to say.
"Jin'er, Shuang'er, you brothers and sisters, take care, the queen mother is leaving now." Empress Luo looked at the two children, no matter how calm her face was, she had to admit that the moment she really wanted to separate was like a knife cutting her heart.
"Mother's queen..." Helian grabbed Empress Luo's sleeves to prevent her from leaving, crying until she couldn't utter a word.
"Jin'er, take your sister down."
When the catastrophe came, she was still a high-ranking queen, her emotions were not flustered, and her appearance was not compromised.Seeing this scene made Concubine Xiao's teeth itch, she wished she could pour the wine in the cup directly on that bitch's face.
He has already fallen into the opponent's trap, if he messes up again at this time, then this round will be completely lost, He Lianjin suppressed his anger, and dragged He Lian Shuang back to his original position and sat down.
Empress Luo was escorted to the Leng Palace by the Imperial Forest Army.
Emperor Yonglong watched the fiery red figure, and his hand on the dragon chair almost crushed the whole chair.
No one expected that the originally joyful New Year's Eve banquet would unexpectedly change suddenly. Luo Shuxuan's collusion with the enemy and treason were so hard to prove. Sigh.
Empress Luo has been favored by the emperor since she entered the palace, and she has already caused a lot of dissatisfaction among the concubines and former ministers. Now that the Phoenix has fallen, there are naturally many people watching the show.
At the end of the palace banquet, He Lian Shuang cried so hard that he wanted to go to the Foreign Minister of Yugan Palace to kneel and beg for mercy, but in the end it was the son-in-law who persuaded her to go back.
Consort Xiao graciously supported the Empress Dowager and left first.
Immediately afterwards, all civil and military officials also brought their families to leave the banquet one after another.
The entire Jade Fu Temple was left empty and silent.
Emperor Yonglong sat on the dragon chair, his eyes were lifeless, dead silent and empty.
Eunuch Zhang couldn't bear it, "Your Majesty, it's late at night, you should go back to the palace for bed."
"Go to bed?" Emperor Yonglong sneered coldly, how could he sleep peacefully without Lan'er?
"Excuse me, I'm going to see Lan'er in Lenggong." Even if it's only for a short while, he still can't rest assured that she won't be used to the dilapidated Lenggong, or she won't be used to being alone.
"Your Majesty!" Eunuch Zhang hurriedly stopped him with a solemn expression, "The empress has just been escorted there. At this time, I think there are many people around the Leng Palace who are the empress dowager and the imperial concubine. Even if the emperor wants to visit the empress, he should wait a little longer. A few days, otherwise, if you go now, you will inevitably lose your tongue, and you will harm the empress instead."
Only then did Emperor Yonglong wake up. Indeed, Eunuch Zhang was right. If he insisted on going to the Leng Palace at this time, the Empress Dowager would definitely feel that he was too biased. Shi can use any means at will to put Lan'er to death.
Seeing that Lan'er was missing, he felt uneasy.
"Let's drive to Weiyang Palace, I'll stay there tonight." It's good to feel her breath without seeing anyone.
Eunuch Zhang sighed softly, throughout the ages, there is probably only one emperor who can be so emphatic in love and righteousness.
Knowing that Emperor Yonglong was in a bad mood, Eunuch Zhang was very cooperative and didn't say much, and directly drove to Weiyang Palace.
Emperor Yonglong stood at the door, looking at the empty and silent hall, and suddenly felt a sense of sadness in his heart. An hour ago, he had embraced her in this place, thinking in his heart that she could spend the 97-year-old New Year's Eve with him. It can be expected that after an hour, it will still be an extremely familiar place, but the tea is already cold.
"Lan'er." The usually clear and bright eyes suddenly faded like a flower in the epiphyllum, and he stretched out his hand, but he couldn't touch her again.
Eunuch Zhang felt uncomfortable, he knew that when the emperor came to Weiyang Palace, it would be impossible to sleep peacefully again, because this place is missing that person!
Can't persuade, dare not persuade, he can only be a deaf-mute, watching the sad back of the emperor silently from the corner of his eye.
This night, the Weiyang Palace was brightly lit, people were still awake under the lights, their eyes were bloodshot red, the whole night was mournful, and the hall was filled with sorrow.
That night, the cold wind blew the decayed window lattices in the cold palace, and people sat alone under the windows, their hair buns flying in the cold night, losing their former luster, like withered weeds.
That night, Shou Renbo's mansion was charged with "collaboration with the enemy and treason". The entire family, including Luo Shuxuan, was imprisoned, and no one was spared.
Some are happy and some are sad.
When Su Yan returned to the Duke's Mansion, Yun Chuwei had already fallen asleep because he couldn't wait. Her petite body was huddled under the velvet quilt, her shoulders shrank a little, and her breathing was weak. She looked like the last piece of autumn on a dead tree that was about to wither. Ye, people can't help feeling pity from the bottom of my heart.
"Wei Wei." Su Yan gently caressed her side face with his fingers, but his mind was a little distracted, like a wounded little animal, only from her could he find some comfort.
Yun Chu fell into a drowsy sleep, vaguely heard a few whispers in his ear, and smelled the familiar fragrance of orchid orchid, turned over and subconsciously arched in his direction, but did not move to the warm embrace he expected In her sleep, she inadvertently frowned, then opened her eyelids.
He sat under the soft candlelight, his facial features were so handsome and exquisite.
Yun Chu, who was half asleep and half awake, smacked his lips slightly, "Master Jiu, are you back?"
Su Yan nodded lightly, "Yes."
"I'm too sleepy." She rubbed her eyes, and with his help sat up with her waist supported, her head rubbing against his arm, apologetic, "I didn't mean to wait for you."
"Sleep if you're sleepy!" Su Yan said softly, "You can watch the fireworks any day."
"Don't you blame me?" Yun Chu slightly raised his eyes to look at him.
Su Yan shook his head, then laughed, "Why are you to blame?"
Yun Chu sniffed slightly, then rubbed against his arms, "Is the palace banquet tonight lively?"
"It's very lively." Su Yan was fascinated by the tassels swinging back and forth on the bedpost, and unconsciously his tone was a little lonely.
"Come up and tell me quickly." Yun Chuwei moved towards the wall, lifted the velvet quilt with one hand, and signaled him to lie down on the couch.
Su Yan didn't refuse, lying beside her in his clothes, he naturally stretched out his arms to make her a pillow to lean on.
Yun Chu took a close look at him, "Master Jiu, I can tell that you are upset because I didn't wait for you to come back to watch the fireworks together?"
"Silly girl." Su Yan tilted his head, showed her a warm smile, and rubbed her head again, "Am I such a stingy person?"
"But Master Jiu said that the palace banquet was very lively, but he was unhappy in his heart. There must be something wrong!" She smiled, her eyelashes fluttering, and behind her slyness was the hope that he could share his thoughts with her.
Su Yan closed his eyes and said slowly: "The Luo family rebelled, the entire family was imprisoned, and Empress Luo was thrown into limbo."
The smile on Yun Chuwei's face suddenly froze, "Master Jiu is joking, right?"
With a backstage supporter as big as the queen, the Luo family's status will only rise steadily in the future, how could they rebel?
"The evidence is solid." Su Yan said again.
Yun Chu's breathing froze for a moment, "Can't Master Jiu save them?"
Although she didn't have a good impression of Luo Yushan, she didn't have such a deep hatred for the Luo family. What's more, because of Princess Yongchun, she had some kindness towards the Luo family. Being imprisoned made Yun Chuwei feel uncomfortable.
Su Yan said meaningfully: "Wei Wei, not all frontal shots are called redemption, there is another kind of redemption, which is called death and rebirth."
Yun Chuwei seemed to understand, she didn't know why Master Jiu said this to herself, but no matter what he did, she would support and believe him unconditionally.
There is such a person in this world, no matter how heinous he is in the eyes of the world, she will never doubt that that person is her husband, who tied his hair on the day of marriage, drank Hentai wine, and confessed to her many times Heartfelt husband.
She believed him only because he was Su Yan, the only person in this world who could make her give her heart.
"Hey, go to sleep!" he said softly, patting her on the back like a pet.
Yun Chuwei slowly closed his eyes.
In the room on a winter night, the light gauze is warm, the thick curtain and the warm earth dragon inside the room cut off all the cold outside. She nestled in his arms and slept soundly.
-
With such a big incident happening to the Luo family, He Lianjin could only come to find Su Yan, an underground military adviser, but no matter how many times he came, Su Yan would avoid him, either playing chess in the teahouse, or staying with Yun Chu Wei, he seemed to be planning to just let go and ignore He Lianjin anymore.
These days, He Lianjin has exhausted his manpower and financial resources, emptied his mind and could not find any evidence that is beneficial to the Luo family. Being able to knock on the door of the Duke's Mansion over and over again, but Su Yan never saw him again, He Lianjin was just a little skeptical at first, but after being rejected a few times, he became more and more convinced that there must be something behind the Luo family to come to this point. Su Yan's handwriting, otherwise, if you look at the whole of Nanliang, you will not be able to find a second person who is so calculating. For a person like He Lianyu, he can't afford to hire a high-ranking adviser.
So, are the so-called "evidences" that accuse the Luo family of rebellion all planned by Su Yan, who he considers to be his brother-in-law?
hatred!He Lianjin hated it so much, why did someone whom he trusted so much in two lifetimes betray him?
What is the charm of He Lianyu? In the previous life, Han'er was willing to sacrifice her body. In this life, Su Yan hibernated by her side to set up such a big murderous situation. The scene of the palace banquet night is still vividly remembered head.
His self-confidence all the time, in Su Yan's eyes, is just a big joke, right?
Being turned away again, He Lianjin looked at the plaque of the Duke's Mansion and laughed wildly. The brotherhood of the past was shattered into pieces with his distracted gaze, and it stabbed his heart, causing his heart to convulse in pain. After being exhausted for many days, a mouthful of blood spewed out, and he passed out.
Even after receiving the news that He Lianjin passed out in front of the gate of the Duke's Mansion, Su Yan did not move. He just ordered someone to send him back to the mansion safely and there was no further follow-up.
-
The verbal criticism from the civil and military courts of the Manchu Dynasty and the intimidation of the Empress Dowager Xiao brought Emperor Yonglong's spirit to the brink of collapse.
It's all for one thing, to kill the Luo clan and abolish the queen.
Emperor Yonglong didn't want to, didn't want to, but he couldn't withstand the attack of so many people, he was exhausted physically and mentally, and his whole body was about to fall apart.
Anxiety, worry, hesitation, uneasiness.
After seven days of lovesickness and suffering, he finally decided to go to Lenggong to see her.
In the cold palace at that time, Empress Luo sat in front of the window, staring at the white snow outside in a daze.
It's the seventh day, the Luo clan has been exterminated long ago, right?The decree of the abolished empress has not yet come, is the emperor still deadlocked?
"The Emperor is here—"
The eunuch's voice came through the cold wind.
Empress Luo was shocked, this day finally came.
What else is prepared for her besides the imperial edict to abolish the empress, poisoned wine, white silk, or a dagger?
After a while, it should be her desperate situation in this life, right?
Empress Luo unhurriedly took out the kit Su Yan had prepared for her from her sleeve pocket.
When she was sitting in front of the bronze mirror at the palace banquet that day, she really wanted to take it out to see what was hidden in it, but in the end she held back her curiosity and came to the cold palace to change into the queen's big attire. Hide this thing quietly.
Pale fingertips gently opened the kit, and there was a ball of paper and a pill inside. Empress Luo opened the ball of paper and saw a few lines written on it.
The more she went down, the more shocked the expression on her face became, so much so that she almost forgot to react after reading the whole letter.
The footsteps outside the door were getting closer, Empress Luo stood up suddenly, put the ball of paper on the candlestick and burned it to ashes, then stuffed the pill into her mouth and swallowed it.
The heavy door with mottled and peeling paint was pushed open with a "squeak".
Empress Luo immediately knelt down, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the bright yellow corner embroidered with dragon patterns.
"The criminal woman has seen the emperor."
Kneeling on the ground, Empress Luo's voice was slightly hoarse, but she couldn't distinguish between emotions and anger.
Emperor Yonglong lowered his eyes. In the past, the queen who was pampered by him as a peony, now she was in a mess and knelt down in front of him with a haggard appearance.
He suddenly felt pain like gouging out the heart and scraping the bone, and his eyes showed deep sadness.
"Lan'er, get up quickly."
Luo Lan didn't say anything, but subconsciously flinched when he was about to reach out to support her, and then stood up by herself, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Looking up, he saw that Eunuch Zhang was empty-handed, without imperial decree, poisonous wine, white silk and dagger, he was surprised.
Facing her delicate face, Emperor Yonglong was heartbroken, "I'm sorry Lan'er, I... can't protect you." It has been seven days, even if he dispatched the most efficient Jinyiwei, the result was the same, the Luo family rebelled, and it was a certainty.
Expecting such an ending, Empress Luo smiled wryly, "Your Majesty, you don't have to blame yourself, the Luo family rebelled, and this concubine deserves what she deserves."
These words were undoubtedly to sprinkle more salt on Emperor Yonglong's bloody wound. His face was full of pain, and the struggle in his eyes made his whole body tremble slightly.
"I have a wish, can the emperor fulfill it for me?" Empress Luo's eyes were firm, and there was a burst of pleading in the firmness.
Not to mention one, he is very willing to have ten or a hundred, "Lan'er, tell me."
"The guilty concubine implores the emperor to set up a son and kill his mother."
After Luo Lan finished speaking, she knelt heavily on the ground again.
It's not like Nanliang didn't have such a precedent. In order to prevent foreign relatives from becoming big, they implemented the policy of "establishing sons and killing mothers" and punishing foreign relatives together.
"Lan'er, you are forcing me." His brows were full of tangles, and his scarlet eyes were full of pain.
She knew that he would not let her die, but she wanted to draw a line with him in this way?
"I hope the emperor will make it happen." Luo Lan's sonorous and forceful voice echoed in the dilapidated hall, and it sounded desolate.
All the discomfort of Emperor Yonglong was blocked in his throat, "Lan'er is so cruel."
If she died, it would be equivalent to dissecting his soul, leaving only a walking corpse in this world.
Even if he raised his head, he couldn't force back the tears. The wise and mighty emperor burst into tears in front of his favored queen at this moment.
Luo Lan turned his eyes away and got rid of all distracting thoughts in his mind so as not to be infected by Emperor Yonglong's emotions. Not long after, a glaring blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
"Your Majesty, I don't have much time to be a concubine." Luo Lan slumped to the ground, the blood on her face decreased sharply, and she gradually turned pale.
"Lan'er!" This scene burned Emperor Yonglong's eyes, he opened his eyes violently, bent down and hugged her into his arms, his voice trembling, "Have you taken poison?"
"Should the emperor be a concubine?" She raised her head, her beautiful eyes were wet and dewy, perhaps due to the effect of the medicine, her voice was incomplete.
"Yes, I just accept you." Emperor Yonglong hugged her tightly, "Isn't it just to make Jin'er the crown prince? Even if there is no such thing as the Luo family, even if you will not leave me, I will hand over the country to him sooner or later The one in your hand is Lan'er, how could you be so stupid, why did you take poison without saying a word, where did you put my heart?"
There was a desolate smile on the corner of Luo Lan's mouth. She always knew that the emperor loved Jin'er in his bones, but Su Yan was right, even if Jin'er was her own son and was favored by the emperor, he couldn't easily sit on the crown prince. Because she is the "demon queen" who favors the sixth palace, she has caused a lot of dissatisfaction, because Jin'er's unruly style in the early years has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Officials' support cannot firmly grasp the hearts of the people.
Under such a stalemate, only a dose of strong medicine can break it.
If there is no Luo family and no halo of the "demon queen", He Lianjin is just a prince who can only rely on himself, and his hidden true ability can be slowly discovered.
"Concubine, thank you, Your Majesty." After finishing speaking, Luo Lan slowly closed her eyes, her arms drooping weakly.
"Lan'er, Lan'er—" Emperor Yonglong hissed and roared, and the tiles on the roof of the cold palace seemed to be shaking.
In the winter of Yonglong's 21st year, the Luo family was abolished after committing a crime, and the Luo family was pushed to the execution platform. On that day, the river of blood flowing outside the Meridian Gate stained half the sky.
If the halo of a queen fades away, one cannot be buried with the ceremony of a queen. Originally, in Luo Lan's situation, it is very possible to be murdered in the wilderness, but how could Emperor Yonglong allow his beloved woman to be treated like this, even if he could not give the ceremony of a queen? , but also to organize the funeral neatly.
On the day when Luo's coffin was buried, the imperial decree to enshrine the crown prince arrived at Prince Jin's Mansion. Everything went against what He Lianyu had expected in advance. He was so angry that he accidentally killed several servants all morning. With a thick layer of haze, everyone acted and spoke with extra caution.
After receiving the prince's seal and changing into the prince's python robe, the first thing He Lianjin did was not to enter the palace to meet the emperor, but took a sword and rode on a fast horse to the Duke Xuanguo's mansion aggressively.
This time, without him needing to knock on the door again, the door of Duke Xuan Guo's Mansion opened, and Su Yan had already been waiting outside the door for a long time. , wearing ribbons, white socks and black shoes, and the eight-beam crown on the head symbolizes the status of the duke, the standard royal court dress.
Only when he heard the sound of horseshoes approaching, Su Yan knelt down slowly and made a big salute, "My minister, I greet His Highness the Crown Prince."
He Lianjin's eyes were already red with hatred, turned over and jumped off the horse, the long sword in his hand came out of the sheath with a "shua", and the point of the sword that was shining with cold light directly touched Su Yan's chest.
"Su Yan, I trust you so much in vain, is this how you repay me?" Leaving aside his status as the prince, he just wants to talk about brotherhood with him, and wants to cut off his robes and justice, and that is today.
"Congratulations to His Highness the Crown Prince for entering the East Palace." Su Yan continued to speak in an official tone, but the expression on his face did not change a bit because of He Lianjin's actions.
"Why do you want to kill the Luo family and my mother!" He roared, and the tip of the sword moved forward an inch, directly cutting Su Yan's flesh, and a dazzling blood flower bloomed on his clean court clothes.
Blood gurgled from the wound and smeared on the front of his chest. Su Yan didn't seem to feel the pain, but his voice was a little low, "The Luo family and Empress Luo are the main reasons why His Royal Highness can't get the Prince's Seal. Your Highness is kind. , I couldn't bear to move them, so I let this humble minister be the eternal sinner. Even if later generations know the word "true **** minister", it will only fall on the humble minister. Your Highness, you will be the eternal emperor in the eyes of everyone. If you point the country, you will be invincible, and your great achievements will go down in history."
Sure enough it was him!
He Lianjin's eyes were so red that they were about to bleed.
Originally, he still held such a glimmer of hope, thinking that he would hear a different explanation from Su Yan, and he also hoped that he would explain that those things had nothing to do with him, even if it was a lie, he wanted to hear it.
However, Su Yan admitted it so frankly and generously.
The blood in the chest and abdomen kept surging, and there was a fishy-sweet taste in his throat. He Lianjin swallowed it forcefully, and then looked at Su Yan with a determined and cold gaze. With a tightening of his hand, the sword pierced directly into Su Yan. In Yan's heart, the sound of a sharp weapon piercing his flesh made his scalp tingle.
"嗤——" He drew out his sword with a sound, and regardless of Su Yan's bleeding profusely in his chest and his pale face due to excessive blood loss, Helian Jinju looked down at him coldly, "Su Yan, from now on , You and I will cut off the righteousness." What he wanted was Su Yan's wholehearted help, not based on the sacrifice of his biological mother and maternal grandfather's family, even if he later found out that Su Yan was not partial to He Lianyu, He just used extremely dark and extreme means to send him to the position of prince, and he couldn't forgive Su Yan.
He was very unhappy being such a prince.
"My minister, I would like to thank His Highness the Prince for your kindness." Even though he was seriously injured, Su Yan still maintained his kneeling posture until He Lianjin's horse left the street completely, and he closed his eyes because of exhaustion Passed out.
"Jiuye!" Panic exclamations suddenly sounded from all around.
-
East Palace, Chonghua Palace.
He Lianjin leaned crookedly on the soft couch, surrounded by empty wine jars, some broken, some with half a jar left, the whole hall smelled of alcohol.
"Your Highness." When Xu Han heard the news and rushed over, he saw such a scene. Even if he couldn't help but get wet eyes, he ran over to stop him, "Why do you humiliate yourself like this?"
"Han'er, you're here." He Lianjin's hoarse voice contained heart-piercing pain. He buried his head in her neck and said after a long time, "I'm uncomfortable."
Overnight, the grandfather's family was condemned for "rebellion", and the birth mother also passed away. Such a heavy blow would be unbearable to anyone who changed it. Xu Han understood him and wiped his tears, "If your Highness is uncomfortable, the concubine will I will be here with you, if you want to cry or do something else, the concubine will be with you."
He Lianjin took a deep breath and asked her: "Han'er, is that position destined to be paved with blood, or is it destined to be a lonely person if you sit in that position?"
He turned against He Lianyu in his previous life because he wanted to take Han'er back from him, so at that time he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his Emperor Road.
But in this life, he sacrificed his biological mother and maternal ancestral family just to become the crown prince. If he wanted to sit in that position, he didn't dare to think about how many people he would have to sacrifice. Will Han'er become his emperor one day? Funeral objects on the road?
It's really hard for Xu Han to answer this kind of question. Otherwise, people in that position call themselves "lonely" and "widowed". "Your Highness, you have just started, don't think too much, no matter what happens in the future, I will always be by His Highness's side."
"Han'er, you are not allowed to leave me." He suddenly hugged her tightly, "I don't have a mother anymore, and I don't want to lose my beloved wife again."
Knowing that he was suffering, she solemnly nodded her head to comfort her, "Well, I will not leave Your Highness."

He Lianjin's sword stabbed very deeply, Su Yan's heart was hurt, and Fang Qiqi ran for half a month in the Duke's Mansion before he managed to wake him up.
"Jiuye." On the side of the bed, Yun Chu blinked his wet eyes slightly, wanting to cry the moment he opened his mouth.
"Wei Wei, don't cry." He covered her eyes first, "I won't die, I promised to accompany you to grow old! I haven't fulfilled my promise, how dare I leave you alone."
After speaking, my throat was itchy and I couldn't help coughing.
"Master Jiu, lie down quickly." Yun Chuwei suddenly became nervous, "It's just gotten better, Qiqi said you can't walk around yet!"
Su Yan waved his hand, "I'm fine. It's probably because I've been lying down for too long and I can't get used to it. I'll be fine in a while."
Yun Chuwei held his cold fingers with both hands, "Why didn't you resist then?"
The corner of Su Yan's mouth raised, "Thunder, rain and dew are all the favor of the king. He is the king, and I am the minister. If he rewards, I have to thank him, and if he punishes, I have to thank him too."
"You're stupid!" Yun Chuwei's eyes were filled with tears, "If I hadn't forced Xiao Ji and Xiao Mu to question, I wouldn't have known that you have carried so much alone. Who is the emperor has nothing to do with us. Is it really worth it for him?"
Su Yan reached out and scratched the tip of her nose, "Didn't you always hope that I could assist He Lianjin?"
"That was in the past." Speaking of this, Yunchu felt regretful, "You should have known that the price you paid for standing in the faction was so high, and I wouldn't push you down this road no matter what I said."
"It's all over." Su Yan smiled, "Although I can't really retire, at least I'm half successful."
"What's the use of half of it?" Yun Chuwei felt distressed, "He has cut off your robes."
Su Yan lowered his eyelashes, "Wei Wei, call Xiao Mu for me, I have something to ask him."
"Jiuye." Yun Chuwei frowned, "Can't you take a good rest for a day?"
Su Yan shook his head, "I don't feel relieved if I don't hear about those people with my own ears."
Yun Chuwei was helpless, got up and went to the outer court to call in Xiao Mu, who was in charge of intelligence from other places.
"Jiu Ye, how do you feel?" Seeing Su Yan's injury, Xiao Mu wished he could drag He Lianjin out and cut him into pieces. What his master did for him was to cut off his robe and judge him?
The emperor is ruthless, that's all!
"Have they all left the capital safely?" Su Yan couldn't help coughing twice, panting slightly.
"Well, I left." Xiao Mu told the truth, "Don't worry, Jiu Ye, the new identity has been arranged, and it is impossible for anyone to find out in this life."
"Just leave." Su Yan nodded and asked again, "So, what about her?"
Xiao Mu paused, "She is safe and sound, and has entered the inner court according to the arrangement of Master Jiu, and now she is waiting for the people in the palace to respond."
Su Yan nodded, "That's good, I've completed my merits and virtues."
Xiao Mu gritted his teeth, "But the prince..." It's really hateful that he is so heartless!
Su Yan raised his hand to stop his next words, "It's none of your business, step back."

On the official road leading to Guangping Mansion, an inconspicuous carriage moved forward slowly, as if it was afraid of people bumping into it.
The light coming in through the window stung Luo Shuxuan's eyes, he frowned uncomfortably, opened his eyelids, and met Jiang Fan'er's calm eyes.
"Miss Jiang?" Luo Shuxuan rubbed his eyes, was he dreaming?He had clearly gone to the execution ground, and if there were no accidents, he should be in Yan Luodian at this time, but how could the person beside him be Jiang Fan'er, could it be that she was also in an accident?
Seeing that Luo Shuxuan finally woke up, Jiang Fan'er felt an inexplicable joy in her heart, but her expression was calm, "Don't look, you're not dead yet!"
Luo Shuxuan froze all of a sudden.
Jiang Fan'er said again: "Not only you, your father, your mother, but also your grandparents and your cousins are all still alive."
"What's going on here?" Luo Shuxuan got excited and grabbed Jiang Fan'er's hand, completely forgetting about the male and female defense, and his eyes were very anxious.
"Before you go to the execution ground, you will be put on a hood. Your whole family is very lucky to have been protected by Duke Xuan, and you will take this opportunity to be replaced by death row prisoners. However, from now on, there will be no more Luo Shuxuan and no Luo family in this world." Now, would you like to come with me?"
Luo Shuxuan looked at her in disbelief, "Then where are we going?"
Jiang Fan'er said: "I'll take you home, back to Guangping Mansion."
Hearing these words, Luo Shuxuan's nose turned sore for no reason, "Miss Jiang, thank you."
"You don't need to thank me, I just cooperated with Duke Xuan Guo a little bit, if you want to thank him, you should also thank him." Jiang Fan'er said: "For this situation, he was promoted to King Jin, oh no, now he should be called Prince, Prince Misunderstood Duke Xuan, stabbed him with a sword, and cut off his robes since then, and this misunderstanding may not be solved for the rest of his life."
Luo Shuxuan was shocked, "Don't His Royal Highness know this?"
"Of course I don't know, and it's impossible to let him know. From the very beginning, Duke Xuan planned to be the sinner himself. Even if he misunderstood the prince for a lifetime, he would use the hands of the virtuous king to destroy the Luo family and make Luo The clan has completely disappeared from the eyes of the world, forcing the emperor to 'make the son kill the mother', although the tactics are extreme, but it cannot be denied that this is the only way for King Jin to enter the East Palace earlier."
"Then my aunt..."
"The title of Empress Luo no longer exists, but there should be an extra court lady in the inner court. As for whether the emperor can find her, it depends on whether the fate between them is deep or not."
Luo Shuxuan once again opened his mouth wide in surprise, "So, all of this is just an illusion, none of the members of the Luo family died, even my aunt..."
"Well, it's all set up by Xuan Guogong." Jiang Fan'er nodded, "You, after you arrive in Guangping Mansion, follow me to work in the yamen obediently, and don't disappoint Xuan Guogong's painstaking arrangements." Growing up so big , has examined countless corpses, seen countless cases and all kinds of people, she has never admired anyone, but Xuan Guogong is the first person she admires so much, if not for that person is still alive, she Had to cut open his brain with a knife to see what was inside.

Imperial City, Changxin Palace.
"Imperial Concubine, the latest batch of palace servants is here. Do you want to choose by yourself?"
Imperial Concubine Xiao lazily leaned against the beauty. Luo Lan's death made her feel quite happy recently, and she even became interested in these small things, "Well, let someone come in!"
As soon as the words fell, a group of palace servants who had just been trained by the inner court walked in from outside, wearing light-colored clothes.
Concubine Xiao's eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, and finally landed on the second one.
I don't know why, I have never seen this person before, but I feel that he has a good face.
"You, raise your head." Concubine Xiao Huanggui pointed to the palace maid, "What's your name?"
"Go back to your mother, servant girl Qiulan."
Qiulan?
Concubine Xiao Huanggui's face sank, "I will change my name to Mallow from now on." This means that she is going to be kept.
Turning her gaze to the grand lady, Imperial Concubine Xiao ordered: "From now on, no one in Changxin Palace is allowed to have 'Lan' in their name, even homonyms."
The palace maid who was renamed "Mallow" lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes. At an angle where no one could see, the corners of her mouth curled up, revealing a hint of coldness.
