The slave family is not a disaster

Chapter 174
"Then what should I do, I can't let him die, can you understand? Your Highness Mo please help me, as long as I can save him, I am willing to spend any money." Ye Anran was anxious, seeing Lian Nishinomiya lone I am afraid that the emperor is not joking if he talks about this matter so seriously.

"An Ran, this matter... is not a matter of money. It's not like a small case where you can bribe the Dali Temple to hear the case. This matter is related to the relationship between the two countries, and the person who wants to kill him is the Empress Dowager. You can't bribe the Empress Dowager either." Jue Nishinomiya smiled helplessly.

"But I really can't watch him die, is there any other way?" Ye Anran asked unwillingly, Xi Gongmo was the last straw she could ask for help, if this matter even Xi Gongmo couldn't handle it , then it is difficult.

Because Xigongmo is the queen mother's favorite prince, this is well known, not only because Xigongmo's sweet mouth can please the queen mother, but also because Xigongmo's biological mother, Concubine Luo, is the queen mother's younger sister. The status of the imperial palace should not be underestimated, but now even he said that there is nothing he can do about it, so what should Ye Anran do?
Do you really want to watch Jia Luo die here?
"Other ways... I haven't thought of it for the time being, I'm sorry An Ran, I really can't do anything about it, otherwise... you can ask Jue and try, there is nothing he can't do in Tianmu Kingdom." Xi Gongmo said slowly.

Hearing Xi Gongjue's name, Ye Anran's eyes suddenly darkened: "He won't help me. Back then, he didn't dare to help Fang Xiucai with such a small matter in the imperial examination. In the end, you helped me solve it. He won't help me with such a big matter. How can you help me, just stand by and watch."

"No way, aren't you husband and wife?" Xi Gongmo was a little puzzled.

Ye Anran sneered: "What about husband and wife, it's just a name, you should know, our relationship has never been good."

Xigongmo remained silent... He knew that Xigongjue had never been very gentle towards Ye Anran, and he was afraid that Xigongjue would not help with such a big matter this time.

And he has no way to help, as the mighty Ryan King of Tianmu Kingdom, what if he helps Dugu Jialuo escape?How would the people of Tianmu see him?Traitor?Collaboration?

"Anran, don't worry, I'm thinking of other ways to do this, right?" Seeing Ye Anran's distraught appearance, Xi Gongmo softly comforted her.

"Well, I understand." Ye Anran replied weakly, now that even the last ray of hope has been shattered, what should she do?

Tianxuan Palace

Empress Dowager He sat firmly on the imperial concubine, and the woman kneeling below was weak and trembling slightly: "Empress Dowager, the mission of the minister's daughter has been completed, can I arrange for the minister's maid to serve the emperor?"

It turned out that although the queen mother promised not to use Yao Ying on the surface, she still encouraged her to get close to Dugu Jialuo in private, because she wanted to kill the hostage, she needed an excuse, an excuse for him to have an affair with the concubine, and Yao Ying was the problem key.

"Well, you did a good job, but... why didn't you know about his escape?" The Queen Mother asked sharply, fiddling with her slender armor.

"Empress Dowager, you can't blame the courtiers for this matter. Dugu Jialuo never believed in the courtiers, so I didn't know anything about this matter." Thinking of this question, Yao Ying became angry and told Dugu Jialuo Luo has been hanging around for so long, but he still can't get into his heart. Except for that time when he kissed her forcefully, he didn't bother to look at her at all, let alone tell her such a secret plan to escape.

"Oh? Are you really ignorant? Or are you pretending not to know?" The queen mother is not sure if this Yao Ying did not report it, because she now feels that this Yao Ying is a bit duplicitous, and she naturally said to help her in front of her. , but in front of Dugu Jialuo, I don't know what kind of rhetoric it is?

And this woman is very greedy now, what she wants is to serve the emperor?Empress Dowager He sneered, such a pawn to be used has been stained, even if she has an innocent body, she is no longer suitable to serve the emperor, it is nothing more than her whimsy.

"The empress dowager, my servant really doesn't know, I beg the empress dowager to enlighten me." Hearing the empress dowager's tone, she doubted herself, Yao Ying knelt down and kowtowed to express her innocence.

"Okay, get up, since you are innocent, then the Ai family will not make things difficult for you, you go with Nanny Chang to freshen up, and the Ai family will arrange for you to meet the emperor." The queen mother bowed her hands and told her to step down.

Yao Ying immediately beamed with joy: "Thank you, Empress Dowager."

"Let's go." Nanny Chang led Yao Ying out from the back door of Tianxuan Palace.

Yao Ying was a little puzzled: "Nurse Chang, where are you taking me? Isn't the bathing pool over there?"

Nanny Chang turned her head to look at Yao Ying coldly, and suddenly shouted: "Come on, take it down."

Immediately, two little eunuchs came over and grabbed Yao Ying tightly, Yao Ying struggled desperately but to no avail: "Nurse Chang, what do you mean?"

"This... is the meaning of the Queen Mother. I am only following orders. I can't blame anyone. Take it away." Chang Nanny ordered.

"Nurse Chang, what are you doing? I want to see the Empress Dowager, she promised or mine..." Yao Ying's voice got further and further away.

Nanny Chang looked at Yao Ying's back and sarcastically said, "What a stupid woman."

After a while, Nanny Chang returned to Tianxuan Palace and reported back in a low voice: "Empress Dowager, then Yao Ying has been locked in the secret room, everything has been done according to your instructions, what should we do next?"

"The next step is to wait for the emperor to issue a killing order. As long as the imperial decree is issued, then...the death of Yao Ying and Dugu Jialuo is not a small crime for the empress and concubine. It is an unforgivable crime." A cold light flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes. She had already figured out what to do, now that everything was ready, she was only waiting for the emperor to nod, then the time for Dugu Jialuo's death would come.

"Yes." Nanny Chang lowered her head in response.

In the study of Prince Rui'an

"My lord, the wangfei met His Royal Highness Heng Wang and Huai Wang today, and she seemed to be asking for help, but both lords refused, and the eyeliner secretly checked by the subordinates reported that the princess was still very depressed when she left the teahouse. It seems that this is the matter. It didn't work." Nie Tian said word by word.

"Hmph, it's strange when it's done. Xigong Jin and Xigongmo are not fools. They can eat and drink normally, but when it comes to life and death, who is willing to take this kind of shit on themselves? This time it's the queen mother who wants to kill Dugu Jia Luo, the emperor seems to be hesitating. Although he doesn't know the reason, but if the queen mother insists on killing, and for the sake of our long-term consideration, this Dugu Jia Luo must be killed. Otherwise, if he goes back, we will plant a tree for ourselves. A strong enemy, the only prince that Liuyun Kingdom can deal with is such a prince, do you think the Queen Mother can let him go? A joke, Ye Anran is too naive, this kind of thing, let alone a friend, even a life-and-death acquaintance Find a way to help her." Xigong Jue seemed to have expected that Ye Anran would go to Xigong Jin and Xigongmo for help, but those two were completely speechless.

The only one who has some weight in front of the queen mother, Xi Gongmo, is not wading into this muddy water. He is a smart person and is very good at protecting himself. How could he be so stupid as to intervene even though he knew it was impossible?
"My lord, are you going to help the concubine?" Nie Tian saw that the lord was very concerned about this matter recently, and sent him to follow the concubine, thinking that the lord wanted to help.

Xi Gongjue raised his eyebrows: "I help? Am I crazy? This is not a joke. It is related to the two countries. Liuyun Kingdom is an enemy. If I help him, is it not collaborating with the enemy? How many pairs of eyes are staring at me? Doing so is undoubtedly digging one's own grave, and besides, that Dugu Jialuo is annoying to look at, why should I help him? Life is a matter of life, and death counts as bad luck for him, so what does it matter to me?"

"It's my subordinate who made a slip of the tongue. This subordinate just thinks that if Dugu Jialuo dies, the concubine will be very sad." Nie Tian also knew about Ye Anran and Dugu Jialuo's past, so he didn't hide his words.

Jue Nishinomiya's eyes moved slightly, and he said slowly: "That's something that can't be helped, I won't interfere, I can only watch with a cold eye."

Evening
The entrance of the study room in Prince Ruian's Mansion
Ye Anran walked over in a snow-white long dress, but walked back and forth nearby, not daring to approach the door of the study. Seeing this, Xiu Lei on duty couldn't help asking: "My lord, what's the matter?"

"Ah, I want to ask, um...is the lord busy?" Ye Anran actually thought about it many times before coming, she knew it was impossible, he would not help herself, but for Jia Luo, she was still willing to give it a try, What Xi Gongmo said is right, in the Tianmu Kingdom, apart from the Queen Mother and the Emperor, only King Rui'an, who has the power to overwhelm the world, is the most capable. Xi Gongjue also said before that he can do what others can do, and others cannot. He can still do whatever he wants. From this, it can be seen that Jue Xigong is indeed omnipotent in Tianmu Kingdom. He may be able to help with this matter, but the important thing is whether he is willing to help.

"Well, the lord is inside, so he shouldn't be very busy. If the concubine has something to do, the subordinates should report it." Although Xiu Lei didn't like Ye Anran, he didn't dislike her very much, and there was no problem with normal communication.

"Well, then there will be Lao Xiu's guards." Ye Anran has always been polite to his servants.

"My lord, you're welcome." Xiu Lei turned around and entered the study room. After a while, he came out and said, "I'm sorry, my lord, my lord said he's very busy now and doesn't want to see anyone."

Obviously, Jue Xigong issued the order to close the door, he had expected Ye Anran to come to him, so he never saw her at all.

"Ah, that's it. Then I'll wait here. When the prince is done, I'll look for him." Ye Anran didn't seem to give up. Although he knew that Jue Nishinomiya did it on purpose, he refused to leave. Wait here.

Xiu Lei was in a bit of a dilemma, looking at the sky, it was already very late, and the cold wind whizzed by from time to time, if the concubine princess stood here all night, she would definitely get sick, so Xiu Lei couldn't bear to comfort him: "My lady, you Why bother? You should know that there is a reason why the Lord doesn't want to see you, so don't mess with your body, go back and rest. "

"It really doesn't matter to me, Xiu Huwei, I must see him, even if he refuses me, I have to listen to him personally." Once Ye Anran becomes stubborn, it is very scary, even if nine cows Can't pull it back.

In the early morning, Xi Gongjue opened the door of the study, and was immediately dumbfounded. Ye Anran was standing straight in front of her. A thick layer of snow had fallen on her hair and even her eyelashes. The snow in the morning seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, and she was standing there , like a statue.

"Why are you here?" Xi Gongjue asked with a frown.

"My lord, my concubine...has been waiting here for you all night." Xiu Lei said unbearably.

"Bastard, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xi Gongjue was furious, he thought Ye Anran had gone back last night, so he simply lay down and went to sleep early, but he didn't want this woman to wait silently at the door all night.

"It's not about Xiuwei, I have to wait for myself, I just want to see you." Ye Anran's voice was very soft, her breath was very weak, and it could be seen that she was about to freeze.

"If it's that matter, you don't need to speak up, I can't do anything." Although Nishinomiya felt sorry for her, but thinking of that matter, he had to refuse.

"I beg you..." Ye Anran fainted before finishing speaking.

Xi Gongjue rushed over and hugged her: "Ye Anran, wake up, don't pretend to be dead for me."
