After Xiao Youxi opened his mouth, the two people sitting opposite never spoke again. These past events are too salted, like a piece of rotten meat that has been put for a long time, and then dug out at this time, stinking and disgusting.
She didn't even dare to look at Xiao Zhige's eyes again. She arched her back slightly and continued to tell the story of the past that haunted her conscience for many years.
"Li Pin After his death, the prince was flustered. He was still young at that time, so he went to ask the queen. The empress has been in charge of the harem for many years. She immediately disposes of the palace people who follow the prince, and then disposes of Li Pin's body. She takes the prince to find her mother and plead guilty. "
The crown prince is the bargaining chip of the Zhao family. The Empress Dowager has supported the emperor and the empress these years, and then cultivated the crown prince. In the final analysis, all these are to protect the glory of the Zhao family. Although the crown prince has done it well, the mother and son kneel down in front of the Empress Dowager and cry, and the Empress Dowager's heart softens.
After all, she was not willing to do anything to her only grandson. What's more, Jiang is old and spicy after all. She quickly came up with a set of words and asked people to scold the prince. After that, he decided to call his son-in-law Cai Xiang to take people to bury the body of Li pin.
All this was done behind Xiao Youxi's back at that time, but she was smart since she was a child. She learned from the extremely tense atmosphere in the palace and the few words of the palace people that something had happened. Out of curiosity, she followed empress dowager Zhao to sneak into the inner hall, overheard the conversation of the three people, and learned the truth.
It was her husband Cai Xiang who buried Li Pin's body. Cai Xiang could not refuse her request. She made an excuse to go out of the palace to find Cai Yu and saw Li Pin's body.
Li pin was a beauty in her life, but after she died, her face was blue and gray, with purple and black pinching marks around her neck. A pair of dark and lifeless apricot eyes were wide open. Xiao Youxi once heard that it was not easy for Li pin to live in the cold palace after she was out of favor, but now seeing her body with her own eyes, he thinks it's too absurd.
The prince killed the concubines in the harem, her mother, Huang Sao, and her husband, but he took care of one person's life and worked together to cover up the truth. Just to save the prince's reputation!
The crown prince of a country, however, cares about human relations and despises human life. How to be the king of a country?
“…… Later, when he came back from Chunshan palace, his mother called him to have a secret talk. I don't know what they said. In a word, the emperor believed them and didn't intend to make a big deal of it. Finally, the palace unified its words and declared that Li Pin could not bear the hardships of the cold palace and killed herself. "
Qifeng palace didn't serve the palace people, but it saved the sealing. The palace people around the prince have long been cleaned up. They are the only people who know. Everyone wants things to settle down as soon as possible.
Only nine year old Xiao Zhige didn't believe it and secretly investigated the truth. It's just that he's young and nobody has to use him. All the people in the palace knew about it, but they kept silent. They watched him search for the truth in vain, and they asked the palace people to say something in his ear like "Li pin has given up his heart".
Over time, he finally gave up looking for the so-called truth.
"It's ridiculous, isn't it?" Xiao you hissed, and his eyelids drooped dispiritedly I couldn't bear to tell you the truth. But my son-in-law stopped me
There was a slight tremor in her voice: "he knelt down on the ground and begged me to take care of the 82 lives of the Cai family as if it had never happened..."
"I said yes." At this time, she just raised her face to look at Xiao Zhige, looking relieved after liberation: "they are all murderers, why am I not?"
These years, she moved out of the Cai family and separated from her husband's son-in-law. She wanted to care about Xiao Zhige and make up for him, but when she saw him, she always thought of her eyes. Guilt and guilt haunted her all the time, making her restless.
"This may be retribution..." Xiao Youxi said, "that's what I know."
When she finished, she bowed her head. She was still in full bloom, but her whole body was full of decadence. An Changqing thought of the last life. After her husband's death, she was also an ancient Buddha with green lights. She just didn't know whether to make atonement for herself or for her husband. Or Both.
Xiao Zhige had no words from beginning to end. From the moment the eldest princess told the truth, he was very calm.
Slowly looking up at the princess, he got up without saying a word, pushed the door and strode out. An Changqing chased after him and called him. He just stepped forward, turned around and said to him in a very gentle tone: "I'll do something. You go back first."
His eyes clearly burning flame, just need a chance, can start a prairie fire.
An Changqing shook his head: "where are you going? I'll go with you. "
Xiao Zhige took a deep look at him and said, "it's OK. I'll take you back first."
They got on the carriage in silence. Xiao Zhige sat quietly on one side. His eyes were calm and deep, but an Changqing felt uneasy for no reason. He grasped his hand subconsciously: "don't do anything stupid."
Xiao Zhige moved his lips and said, "don't be careful."
After going back, Xiao Zhige is the same as usual. An Changqing follows him every step of the way, but he doesn't do anything unusual.
They usually have dinner, watch the children, take a bath, and then hug each other to sleep.
An Changqing was not allowed to sleep, but somehow, her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, so she went to sleep. By the time he awoke, it was midnight. The bedding on the side of the body is cold - Xiao Zhige is no longer here.In a hurry, he put on his robe and got up. However, he saw that the guard in the palace was very strict, and the Guard commander was setting up the defense. In an Changqing's heart, he had a premonition: "what are you doing? What about Wang Ye? "
The Guard commander's eyes dodged, and Gu talked about him. Obviously, I was told.
Seeing that she couldn't come out, an Changqing simply went back to her house to change her clothes, and she wanted to ride her horse out to find it, but she was stopped by the commander at the door: "princess, the prince ordered me to protect you and the princess in the mansion."
An Changqing was even more uneasy. He pushed his horse forward with a cold look: "get out of the way!"
The other side stopped at the door.
An Changqing's eyes were cold. He pulled out the long sword from the commander's waist. The point of the sword was facing him and said harshly, "I'll say it again, get out of the way!"
The commander was surprised and didn't dare to stop him again. With this hesitation, an Changqing got into the air and galloped out.
At this time, it was late at night, and the street was very quiet. An Changqing drove his horse straight to the prince's east palace. However, in the empty silence of the palace gate, I didn't see Xiao Zhige's figure as expected. He wandered restlessly in the same place, trying to calm down and think, in addition to the East Palace, where Xiao Zhige would go.
He stood in front of the palace gate in imitation of hesitation. A patrolling guard came from a distance. An Changqing was about to avoid him, but he was covered and pulled into the dark lane.
"I didn't ask you to stay in the mansion?"
Familiar voice in the ear, but also some hoarse.
An Changqing relaxed, broke off his hand, turned and glared at him angrily: "what do you want to do? Take these people to the East Palace and kill the prince? "
Maybe there was darkness, Xiao Zhige didn't disguise calmness any more, he coldly lifted his lips, the corner of his eyes and the tip of his brow were full of fierce color: "why not? I will take his head and pay tribute to his mother's death. "
An Changqing looks at him stupidly. This is not Xiao Zhige he is familiar with. It seems that he has changed back to the evil spirit of Taisui when they first met.
He clenched his fist and filled his chest with anger: "the prince's life is not worth money. In order to kill him, is it worth bearing the reputation of murdering his brother and treason? If she knew, she would not be happy! "
"I say it's worth it." Xiao Zhige was close to him, and his hand behind him was full of strength: "come here, I'll send someone to take you back. After tonight, I'm afraid there will be chaos in Yejing. You go back to pack up first. Tomorrow night, someone will come to pick you up and send you back to Yanzhou. "
An Changqing shook his head, stepped back and looked at him warily: "I won't be fooled by you. If you go back with me, the prince has so many hands that any one of them can make him never turn over. It's not worth catching up with yourself, he doesn't deserve it
Xiao Zhige was helpless. He took out his hand and said in a warm voice, "OK, I'll listen to you. You come here and we'll go back. "
An Changqing just showed a smile and walked toward him as if she were not on guard. Xiao Zhige reaches for his shoulder, but an Changqing reacts faster than him. Without waiting for his hand, his hand hidden in his sleeve covers his mouth and nose quickly, and his eyes apologize: "I'm sorry..."
His mouth and nose are covered by a soft handkerchief, and a sweet and greasy fragrance is inhaled. His hand is going to fall on the back of an Changqing's neck. Xiao Zhige tries his best to open his eyes, but he can only vaguely see an Changqing's cold eyebrows shaking, and then there is darkness.
Looking at the Prince being drugged face to face, the remaining soldiers were in a dilemma. Xiao Zhige's trip brought only 30 elites. These people not only fought in the battlefield, but also knew how to assassinate. At this time, these people looked at each other and did not know what to do.
An Changqing supported Xiao Zhige, who was in a coma, and said in a cold voice, "send the Lord back to his house!"
His eyebrows were as cold as frost and snow. At this time, he looked even more terrible than Xiao Zhige. Now the master had fallen, and they did not dare to disobey their orders, so they had to escort them back to the palace quietly.
When Xiao Zhige is sent back to settle down, an Changqing is not at ease. He calls Yu Xiao over and asks him to look at Xiao Zhige: "before dawn, I will never let the king wake up."
This time back to Yejing, Hu stayed in Yanzhou, only Yu Xiao followed. He followed Hu Shifei to study medicine for a long time, and an Changqing asked for Xiao Zhige's fragrance.
Yu Xiao was very obedient. She moved the pony to sit beside the bed and tied several silver needles to Xiao Zhige's acupoints: "as long as you don't pull out the silver needles, you won't wake up."
An Changqing let go and told him to see good people. Then he rode out of the house in a hurry.
At this time, it was still late in the night. He rode his horse to Ji's house and called the sleeping Ji Anmin. After a secret talk, they reached a consensus. He rushed back to Xiao Zhige in a hurry and set off fireworks in the dark lane where they were ambushing.
After a while, Kui Er, who was wearing the eunuch's clothes in the East Palace, appeared quietly. Seeing that the summoner was an Changqing, he was stunned: "does the princess have something important to tell you?"
This fireworks is a signal of emergency communication between detectives.
An Changqing told him the plan, arranged it all, and then went back to the palace in the dark. After going back, he was unable to rest, and sent a team of soldiers to get people outside the city.
He did not close his eyes for a moment that night, but sat anxiously in the room waiting for news. On the bed behind him, Xiao Zhige is sleeping.
He can stop Xiao Zhige once, but not twice or three times. The only way is to poke out the prince's guilt before he starts.At dawn, Kui Er came back
"how?" An Changqing rose abruptly
"yes, the twin sisters have been taken to Chongzheng Hall by Mr. Ji."
this move has been deployed for a long time, waiting for the right time to turn it out. Last night, after an Changqing's arrangement, he asked Kui Er to help the twin sisters escape from the east palace guard. The two sisters are fierce, and they refused to give in when they were locked up in the east palace. They suffered a lot of beatings and insults. They have been vicious to the prince. Now with Kui er's help, their younger sister ran into Ji Anmin, the imperial historian of the imperial court
twins are as like as two peas. You can guess women's identity without asking questions. Now one is still kneeling on the drum outside the hall, while the other is on the verge of dying. Even if the eunuch wanted to turn around, he could not turn back
as a result, the case of the crown prince of Donggong being suspected of abducting, trafficking and forcing the death of a good family woman was finally spread out and put under the eyes of the public
