Meng Xinran looked directly at Emperor Dingyuan and said, "I have something to say."
I didn't kill the man, I killed the lord of the county. ”As soon as the words came out, countless waves were stirred, and everyone looked at each other, and no one spoke for a while.Chu Huaiyu was the first to react, glaring at Meng Xinran: "You are talking nonsense!"
Obviously, you have the heart of stealing and want to make money and kill yourself.Now you're even going to blame me!
You despicable villain!
”Meng Xinran didn't even look at Chu Huaiyu, and continued: "The county lord killed because this father-in-law knew a secret, a secret about her unfortunate background. ”The unfortunate life experience, just a few words, made the hearts of several insiders beat hard.Especially Emperor Dingyuan, even his breathing was unsteady, and he clenched his fists and asked, "What secret?"
”Meng said happily: "About the eldest princess." ”As soon as the words fell, everyone was still stunned about the eldest princess, and they heard Emperor Dingyuan shouting: "Get out!"
”The people at the door were frightened for a while, trembling, and looking at each other.Under the intimidation of Emperor Dingyuan, no one dared to move."
Get it all out of here."
Emperor Dingyuan tried his best to calm down, but his anger did not decrease.The guards beside Emperor Dingyuan moved and invited people out.Those who want to stay and watch the excitement can only look inside with regret and curiosity, and they are very reluctant.In the end, there were only six people left in the cold palace.The door was shut, the candles flickered in the cold palace, the shadows cast on the ground swayed, and the faces of the people in the room were different.Emperor Dingyuan looked at Meng Xinran with a pair of red eyes, and his voice was hoarse, half threatening: "You, tell me everything you hear." ”Meng Xinran's mood was extremely calm at this time, she said: "Actually, the rest of the folk girls didn't hear clearly. ”"You lied to me?!"
Emperor Dingyuan was furious, "You dare to bully the king, believe it or not, I will punish your nine clans!"
”"Brother Huang!"
Chu Jingqi couldn't help but drink."
Shut up!"
Emperor Dingyuan's affairs for so many years were revealed in front of many people today, and he seemed to be trampled on in pain, and the whole person was furious.Shen Zizhi felt a sense of relief on the side, as if at this moment he had finally removed the shackles on his body and was able to let go and do what he wanted to do.But seeing Emperor Dingyuan's extremely intense emotions, he frowned, and his heart was faintly uneasy.Chu Jingrong on the other side seemed to stay out of the matter, as if the person Emperor Dingyuan and Meng Xinran were talking about was not her.Meng Xinran obviously didn't expect Emperor Dingyuan's reaction to be so intense, and faintly regretted his impulsiveness.But the matter has come to this point, and there is no way to undo it.She glanced at Chu Jingrong next to her, was very ruthless, and said to Emperor Dingyuan: "The folk girl was tied up and didn't hear the words clearly, but the county lord was by the side of that father-in-law, and she knew it clearly." ”Chu Huaiyu's buried head suddenly raised, glaring at Meng Xinran fiercely, and his jaw became tense because of the clenched teeth.Emperor Dingyuan turned his head to look at Chu Huaiyu and said, "Huaiyu, come, you come?"
”Emperor Dingyuan's tone was light, but it made people shudder.Chu Huaiyu was frightened by Emperor Dingyuan's hideous expression, she finally became scared and stammered her head: "No, I didn't, it's her, she's lying!"
”As she spoke, she stretched out her hand towards Chu Jingrong in a panic, "Mother, you help me, I didn't hear anything, you help me." ”Chu Jingrong looked at her indifferently and did not make a sound."
Enough!"
Emperor Dingyuan roared, his body shook for a moment, and he seemed to be a little unable to stand.Chu Jingqi was anxious, and as soon as he took a step, he was stopped by Emperor Dingyuan raising his hand, "Shut up, this matter is over!"
”"Huh."
Just when everyone was silent, Chu Jingrong suddenly laughed, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a mocking smile, mocking Emperor Dingyuan: "Why do you let people shut up?"
What, you're scared?
My good royal brother. ”Chapter 62 062 Emperor Dingyuan was stunned.Chu Jingrong kept smiling on her face, and said to Emperor Dingyuan: "Your Majesty, I'm not angry, why are you angry, why are you in a hurry?"
”Without waiting for Emperor Dingyuan to react otherwise, Chu Jingrong turned her gaze to Shen Zizhi, who had always been calm.The ridicule on her face faded in an instant, and Chu Jingrong even looked at the person in front of her who she had loved for more than ten years with infatuated eyes.But what she said didn't make people feel her love, but showed a strong resentment: "Lord Shen, Prime Minister Shen, you didn't expect that there would be people who would remember what you and the emperor did back then."
Accidental?
Surprise?
”However, Shen Zizhi's expression was flat, and he said tepidly, with deep meaning: "The princess is also not reckless, and the things she will do are even more countless."
Shen sighed to himself. ”Chu Jingrong's face froze, then she laughed wildly, and then suddenly withdrew her expression, fiercely and gritted her teeth: "What did I do?
Didn't you force it out?
”She took a step forward, approached Shen Zizhi, and said, "If it weren't for you, how would I have become the crazy person I am now, and let everyone see the jokes?"
You are the culprit. ”When Chu Jingrong mentioned the events of the year, Shen Zizhi finally had some expression, he closed his eyes, and said with a complicated expression: "If it wasn't for the princess and you being aggressive, it wouldn't have ended like this in the end."
Princess, my mind has never changed, it is you who are obsessed with it, and ultimately harm others and yourself. ”"You blame me?!"
Chu Jingrong shouted in disbelief, "If it weren't for you and that slut who had to be together, would I have wanted to get rid of her?"
Why do you have to choose her, what am I not as good as her?!
”Chu Jingrong's voice was hoarse, her face was distorted and struggling, and her eyes were full of pain and resentment.How could she not hate.She loves Shen Zizhi so much that she can't help herself, obviously she is the same as Lin Qi'an, she grew up with him together, and as a princess, her status is noble, why Shen Zizhi still chose Lin Qi'an in the end.What is there about her that is not as good as her?
Chu Jingrong has never touched a wall since she was born, but she has eaten a closed door on Shen Zizhi, and she doesn't hit the south wall or look back, and if she hits the south wall, she has to fight to break the net.Shen Zizhi didn't like her, the more Chu Jingrong wanted him.used to be a girl's simple love, but later, seeing Lin Qi'an and Shen Zizhi's affectionate eyes, this relationship slowly deteriorated.For Shen Zizhi, Chu Jingrong became extremely paranoid.Chu Jingrong chuckled sadly: "I wanted to destroy her except for her, but I didn't expect that in the end, I stepped into my own trap."
An Shiping is something, heh, but in the end, only he got what he wanted. ”Chu Jingrong laughed out of tears, her eyes were red, as if crying blood, and said: "I'm not doing well, then don't think about it."
I can't get it, and no one else can think of it!
”Shen Zizhi seemed to have expected these things, and only looked at her indifferently, unmoved.The secret had been revealed, and Meng Xinran felt that he had spied on the hidden secrets.His fingers tightly grabbed Chu Jingqi's sleeve and subconsciously exerted force.The sleeve was falling down by a force, Chu Jingqi lowered his head, and then silently clenched Meng Xinran's hand, giving her a stable force.Meng Xinran felt the temperature in his hand, and his five fingers tightened.Chu Huaiyu was still kneeling on the ground, maintaining this posture.In this cold palace, only her place has been carved out of a corner, as if she is a completely forgotten person.She is in a very calm mood now, so calm that she just wants to laugh, laugh at this group of noble and high-ranking people, laugh at her ridiculous birth and life, laugh at everything.The fingers attached to the cold floor were slowly grasped, and the sound of fingernails scraping was fine.She stared blankly at the floor, listening to the conversation of the people in the room.Emperor Dingyuan gasped heavily, his anger made him feel dizzy, his vision became blurred, and he saw that there was a layer of phantom in the people and things around him.Among the six people, the only one who was not surprised by this matter was Chu Jingqi.Earlier, he had already sent Chu Dao to investigate this secret buried in the palace.Although the emperor killed all the insiders back then, there were so many people in the palace that it was impossible for him to prevent it from being airtight.The gossip between the palace people finally survived.It took Chu Jingqi a lot of effort to find out the old news in the palace fifteen years ago.Fifteen years ago, on the birthday of the first queen, all the relatives of the family were invited, and there were also young ladies and sons from various mansions.Chu Jingrong was the most favored child in front of the emperor and empress at that time, even more favored than the crown prince at that time and the current Dingyuan Emperor.is not only beautiful in appearance, but also noble in status, which has attracted all the sons of the family to have a good impression of her.However, the princess with an incomparably noble status fell in love with Shen Zizhi, who had a heart.The confession was rejected all, and Chu Jingrong looked at Shen Zizhi and Lin Qi'an in and out of each other, and looked red-eyed.The demons entangled her, and she lost her reason.On the day of Empress Xian's birthday, Chu Jingrong had Lin Qi'an tricked out and locked up in an abandoned and remote palace in the harem.Chu Jingrong has prepared everything, wine, medicine, and a man, and she is ready to give people to An Shiping, the famous prodigal son of Kyoto.But she did a lot of calculations, but she didn't calculate anything, she was listened to by someone who was interested when she explained to the palace people to act, and the matter of turning her head reached the ears of Shen Zizhi and Emperor Dingyuan.Shen Zizhi knew that he was furious, and the young man's temperament made him angry, and he wanted to teach Chu Jingrong a lesson.Emperor Dingyuan, jealous that his sister had taken away his favor, and his accumulated dissatisfaction made him agree to Shen Zizhi's intentions.The two little young men just wanted to teach Chu Jingrong a simple and excessive lesson, but they didn't expect that they would eventually push people into the fire pit.Lin Qi'an was not deceived by Chu Jingrong, but Chu Jingrong went to the cold palace.Shen Zizhi and Emperor Dingyuan just wanted to scare her, but they didn't expect that by mistake, An Shiping entered the palace by mistake and drank the glass of wine with ingredients in advance, and when Chu Jingrong entered, it was when the effect of the medicine occurred.Chu Jingrong's ending can be imagined.The first emperor originally wanted to hide this matter, but he didn't expect Chu Jingrong to be pregnant, so she could only be forced to marry An Shiping.Chu Huaiyu's existence is the mark of Chu Jingrong's shame, and she has been reminding her of her insults all her life.Especially after getting married, An Shiping's unknown bad behavior, it is no wonder that Chu Jingrong's temperament changed greatly in the end, and she became what she is now.Chu Jingqi frowned and looked at Shen Zizhi and Chu Jingrong.It is not clear who is right and who is wrong, but it can only be said that creation makes people and intertwines their destinies.Just when Chu Jingqi thought that Chu Jingrong and Shen Zizhi were about to spread out the past, they heard a bang and the sound of heavy objects falling.Looking at the source of the sound, I saw Emperor Dingyuan lying on the floor with his eyes closed, motionless."
Brother Huang!"
Chu Jingqi exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly ran over to probe his snort.Feeling that there was still breathing, Chu Jingqi's heart fell for the most part, and then he yelled outward, "Someone!"
Shouting the Imperial Doctor!
”Emperor Dingyuan's coma interrupted all his memories and past, and he looked at it one after another."
Your Majesty?"
Shen Zizhi knew that he had been friends with the emperor for many years after all, so he hurriedly walked over to check.The people waiting outside the house flocked to it, Wei Hai anxiously urged the imperial doctor, and for a while, the cold palace was noisy and panicked, and he was a little at a loss.Chu Jingrong stood at the back of the crowd and looked coldly at the scene in front of her.Regarding the life and death of Emperor Dingyuan, she seemed indifferent.When Chu Jingqi shouted, Meng Xinran suddenly realized.She didn't expect Emperor Dingyuan to fall unconscious without warning.For a moment, there was chaos in the cold palace.Emperor Dingyuan suddenly fell into a coma, and everyone didn't know the reason, and no one dared to move the emperor.Chu Jingqi brought the imperial doctor in and hurriedly asked him to take the pulse.The imperial doctor was stunned for a long time, and was about to speak, but was suddenly stopped by Chu Jingqi.Those who can be officials in the court are human spirits, and the imperial doctor immediately understood, and did not directly say the emperor's illness, but picked up a few points and said.Chu Jingqi ordered Emperor Dingyuan to be sent back to the dormitory.The cold palace was cold, and Emperor Dingyuan continued to stay here for fear that he would aggravate his symptoms.The mermaids gathered around the palace poured out.Emperor Dingyuan was sent back to the palace.Chu Jingqi needed to stay in the palace, so he arranged for Wei Hai to send people back.Meng Xinran knew that Chu Jingqi couldn't get out of her body at this moment, and she also knew that if she stayed in the palace, she was afraid that something would happen, after all, she not only angered the emperor, but also had a new enmity with Chu Jingrong's mother and daughter.Everyone left, leaving only Chu Jingrong and Chu Huaiyu, the cold mother and daughter.Chu Huaiyu still maintained that posture, hanging her head, half of her face buried in the shadows, and she couldn't see the expression on her face at this time.Chu Jingrong glanced back at her daughter, sneered, and left without looking back.The chill in the room was even heavier, but Chu Huaiyu felt that his heart was colder than his body.She closed her eyes heavily, and when she opened them again, she was lifeless, like a pool of stagnant water, undisturbed.The palace banquet of the Lantern Festival ended with the coma of Emperor Dingyuan.The news of the emperor's unconscious did not last long, and it spread in the middle of the court, which made the already muddy water of Kyoto even more chaotic.Chapter 63 063 Emperor Dingyuan's coma made the situation in Kyoto suddenly grim.As if there was no monarch in the court, Shen Zizhi, who was the left minister, and Chu Jingqi, who was the prince, began to deal with the affairs of the court and China.However, this move naturally aroused the opposition of the ministers below, as well as the resistance that was secretly absent, and there were more things in the court.For Chu Jingqi, the ministers of the court did not dare to say anything, the identity of the prince was there, and he was the most favored younger brother of Emperor Dingyuan, even if the minister was dissatisfied, he did not dare to show it.But Shen Zizhi knows that it is different, he has only been in the court for a few months, but he has already achieved the position of the left minister, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is above everyone under 10,000 people, and now he is in charge of the court, which makes some people secretly start to jump.The backlog of affairs of Emperor Dingyuan had already been decided, but the edict had not yet been issued.Now that the emperor is unconscious, this matter has fallen on Shen Zizhi's head.However, these decrees were frequently obstructed, which made Shen Zizhi, who had been spinning for several days, also irritable, a little more annoyed, and issued several orders in a row, openly and secretly severely punished many officials who made mistakes.For a while, the court became hot and watery, but it was faint.Unlike the court, the harem is extremely lively.The emperor was in a coma, and the people who were already running diligently became more and more diligent, and the three noble concubines ran to the emperor's bedroom with the decoction.The pear blossoms on their faces are rainy, and the sorrow between their eyebrows is thick, and they are pitiful when they see it.However, Wei Hai looked coldly at these ladies and actresses.The words of the Imperial Physician were still in his ears.That day, Chu Jingqi stopped what the imperial doctor wanted to say, and it was not until he was in the dormitory, surrounded by confidants, that Chu Jingqi asked the imperial doctor to say what he had not said."
Judging from the pulse, the emperor is afraid that he has been poisoned."

As soon as the words came out, the whole house was shocked.Chu Jingqi's face was gloomy, and he asked in a low voice, "Poisoning?"
What poison is there?
”The sweat on the imperial doctor's forehead leached, and he said carefully: "This poison seems to be related to food intake, originally there will be no problem with one ingredient alone, but the emperor's poison seems to be a mixture of several ingredients, so that the non-toxic food becomes poison, and over time, it is latent in the emperor's body, and it has not broken out until today."
Moreover, in addition to the ingredients, there seems to be something else that catalyzes the toxins in the emperor's body. ”Hearing the two words of ingredients, Gonggong Wei trembled first, and when Chu Jingqi turned his gaze, he knelt on the ground with a puff: "Please be aware of the prince, although the emperor's meal is controlled by the slave, but even if it is borrowed from the slave's bear heart and leopard gall, the slave will not dare to start in the meal of the Long Live Lord." ”Chu Jingqi looked at him."
Lord Wang, the slave has never done anything to harm the emperor."
Wei Hai panicked, "Please check the prince!"
”Wei Hai is an old man in the palace, he has been with him since Emperor Dingyuan was the crown prince, saying that he is a palace man who serves closely, but after all, he is also the emperor's confidant, Chu Jingqi has also watched him serve by the emperor's side since he was a child, and he is also clear about Wei Hai's personality.He didn't dare to say it to others, but for Emperor Dingyuan, Wei Hai was loyal.Chu Jingqi looked away, and Wei Hai suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.Poisoning the emperor is a big crime to kill the head and punish the nine clans, although Wei Hai has never done it, but he is afraid when he thinks about it, and his heart palpitates.Chu Jingqi asked the imperial doctor: "Do you know what kind of ingredients poisoned the imperial brother?"
”"This ......"
The imperial doctor was embarrassed, and his heart was worried, but he didn't dare to hide a lie in the situation in front of him, so he had to say with a heart, "Weichen doesn't know, there are many kinds of ingredients, and Weichen is only shallow in learning, and he didn't find out what the emperor is." ”Chu Jingqi's eyes turned cold a little: "Can't see it?"
”The imperial doctor became nervous, his back bent down a little more, and his voice was tense: "Weichen, I can't see it." ”Chu Jingqi was silent, but the people in the room felt that their breathing was heavy and they were about to lose their breath.After a while, Chu Jingqi waved his hand and said, "This matter should not be publicized at will, and besides, you immediately find a way to find out what kind of poison is in the emperor, if you can't find out, don't want your head." ”The Imperial Doctor responded tremblingly.Chu Jingqi turned his head to look at Wei Hai again: "Father-in-law, take strict care of all the people related to the emperor's meal, but don't alarm them, check them secretly." ”Wei Hai nodded hurriedly.A day later, Wei Hai really caught someone in the imperial dining room.The arrested little palace maid was transferred from Huanyi Ju to the imperial dining room half a month ago, Wei Hai secretly arrested the person and tortured him, the little palace maid couldn't stand it anymore, and confessed to the person who transferred him.Father-in-law Wei followed the confession of the little palace maid and found that on the day of the palace banquet, Meng Xinran killed the eunuch in the cold palace.Wei Hai told Chu Jingqi about the matter.As soon as I heard that the person was not only related to the emperor, but also related to Meng Xinran, he thoroughly investigated the matter overnight.After Emperor Dingyuan fell into a coma that day, no one paid attention to the corpse lying in the corner.The guards hastily covered themselves with a white cloth and waited to take the time to throw them into mass graves.As a result, he forgot about the person in the end, and the corpse was always in the cold palace.Chu Jingqi led people over, and before he got close, he smelled a faint smell of corpses.Fortunately, the temperature in winter is low, and the corpse does not decompose as quickly as in summer.Chu Jingqi covered his nose and entered the cold palace and asked someone to lift the white cloth.The stiff, cold corpse lay on the ground, a pair of cloudy eyes staring up blankly.The blood that flowed out had long since dried up, leaving mottled marks on the ground, and the five fingers were bent and stretched, fixed in the action before death, looking quite strange and hideous.As soon as Gonggong Wei saw it, he couldn't help but take a breath, and then looked at Chu Jingqi, although his brows kept frowning, he took a step forward.Father-in-law Wei thought about it and followed.Chu Jingqi looked at the corpse for a long time, so long that Wei Hai looked at him several times in confusion, and couldn't understand why Chu Jingqi stared at the dead man for so long.Chu Jingqi's frowning brows became tighter and tighter, and suddenly he spoke: "Turn his head over." ”The guard behind him stepped forward and turned the dead man's head to the other side.Chu Jingqi took a closer look and said, "Something is on his face, tear it off." ”The guard did as he was told, rubbing his fingers against his chin and neck.It didn't take long for his fingers to stop, as if touching something, and as soon as he exerted his strength, he heard a slight tearing sound, and a thin human skin mask was removed from the dead man's face.An old and familiar face appeared in front of Gonggong Wei and Chu Jingqi.Grandpa Wei exclaimed in surprise the moment he saw the person: "Grandpa Zhang?
”Chu Jingqi and Father-in-law Wei both knew this face, and even became more familiar with the owner of this face.Although Gonggong Zhang was an old man beside Chu Jingrong, he let Emperor Dingyuan touch it more than a year ago because of the embarrassment of the county lord Chu Huaiyu, and he sent people into the cold palace.Chu Huaiyu's life was not satisfactory, in the end he was still the county lord, and it was not his turn to be eunuchs.Emperor Dingyuan made a big deal about this, Zhang Gonggong's death crime can be avoided, and the living crime is inevitable, if it is not impossible to say that he has a grudge against Emperor Dingyuan.It's just that if that's the case, then even if there is no mastermind behind him.But this doesn't seem to be reasonable, Grandpa Wei always feels something weird.Gonggong Wei looked at Chu Jingqi again and again: "Lord Wang, this, you see ......"
Chu Jingqi didn't want to say more, his face was ugly and said: "Pull people away and bury them." ”With that, he left.The poisoning of Emperor Dingyuan seems to have been interrupted.In the courtyard of Litang, Rou'er was in a hurry, pushed open the door, looked out carefully, closed the door, and walked towards the house."
Princess, Mobei has sent a letter."
Rou'er took out a thin bamboo tube and handed it to Chu Jingrong.Chu Jingrong took it, took out the note in the bamboo tube, looked at it a few times, and let Rou'er burn it.The flames instantly sparkled the paper and burned it to ashes."
You go down first."
Chu Jingrong said.Rou'er answered and retired.Chu Jingrong sat at the table, wrinkling her eyebrows and pondering.The one who came to the letter was Luo Yu, the general of Zhenyuan.Chu Jingrong's correspondence with Luo Yu has never been broken, and it has become more frequent recently.Luo Yu has always loved Chu Jingrong, even if she married An Shiping, Luo Yu left Kyoto angrily, but his feelings for Chu Jingrong have never faded, but with the exchange of letters in the past few years, it has become more profound.Luo Yu vaguely proposed on the note, wanting Chu Jingrong to leave the palace quickly.Emperor Dingyuan was in a coma, Chu Jingqi and Shen Zizhi knew that they would inevitably find clues on her, for the safety of Chu Jingrong, Luo Yu proposed to let Chu Jingqi secretly leave the palace and go to Mobei.Mobei is Luo Yu's territory, and he will definitely be able to protect Chu Jingrong's thoughtfulness.In fact, Luo Yu's proposal to let Chu Jingrong go to Mobei was proposed a few years ago, not long after An Shiping passed away, Luo Yu heard that Chu Jingrong had returned to the palace, so he wanted to get people to his side.But at that time, Chu Jingrong had not let go of Shen Zizhi, so she naturally refused.Now that the old things are brought up again, although Chu Jingrong is still worried about Shen Zizhi, there is a slight loosening in her heart.Emperor Dingyuan fell into a coma, which was part of Chu Jingrong's plan.Concubine Li did not disappoint her.If she is not wrong, Emperor Dingyuan may not live for a few days, if she does not leave, I am afraid it will be difficult to leave the palace after that.Chu Jingrong wrinkled her brows, wanting to leave but reluctant to let Shen know that if she didn't go, she might die.After pondering for a while, Chu Jingrong pursed her lips, and there was a decision in her eyes.The author has something to say: Thank you to the reader for the nutrient solution irrigated by "Ziyu Purple Taro" Chapter 64 064 Chu Jingqi in the palace was in a hurry, Meng Xinran saw him and hurriedly got up to meet him, and asked, "How is the emperor?"
”After Emperor Dingyuan fell into a coma that day, Chu Jingqi and Shen Zizhi suppressed the matter in the cold palace, so no one continued to pursue the entanglement between her and Chu Huaiyu, and even Chu Jingrong did not move, and stayed in the Litang Courtyard and never came out.Chu Jingqi shook his head, his face was not very good, and said, "I haven't woken up yet." ”Meng Xinran chuckled in her heart, and said worriedly: "Has the imperial doctor found out the cause of the emperor's illness?"
”Chu Jingqi's face was solemn, and he wrinkled his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "The imperial brother is poisoned." ”"Poisoned?"
Meng Xinran was taken aback, "How could the emperor be poisoned?"
”And Emperor Dingyuan didn't have news of his health before, how could he be poisoned for no reason?
Chu Jingqi held her hand and gave an answer: "It's someone from the harem." ”"People in the harem?"
Meng Xinran's first thought was Chu Jingrong, she said, "Is it the eldest princess?"
”I didn't want to, but I saw Chu Jingqi shaking his head: "She is suspicious, but there is no direct evidence." ”"Do you remember the eunuch who was killed in the cold palace?"
Chu Jingqi asked.Meng Xinran was stunned: "Father-in-law Zhang?
”Chu Jingqi frowned: "Do you know him?"
”Meng Xinran shook his head: "I don't know him, it's Chu Huaiyu who knows him." ”Meng Xinran saw Chu Jingqi's puzzled face, so he told him what happened that day.Chu Jingqi fell into deep thought after hearing this, and after a while, he said: "In this way, I'm afraid that the imperial sister is using the glory and wealth of Gonggong Zhang to bewitch him, but in this matter, the imperial sister has suspicions at most, and Gonggong Zhang is dead, there is no proof of death, and there is no direct evidence pointing to her."
Unless you find someone who really did the poison. ”Meng Xinran hesitated: "That......
Is it the lady in the palace?
”Chu Jingqi nodded: "The imperial sister has been secretly cultivating spies, and she has placed these people in the minister's backyard to find out the news.She has been moving a lot recently, and she has been pulled out a lot by me and Shen Xiang, but only the palace ......"
Chu Jingqi's fingers clasped the table, which meant that it was self-evident.Meng Xinran understood: "You mean, in the harem, there are spies of the eldest princess?"
”"Hmm."
Chu Jingqi said, "The imperial brother has been indulging the imperial sister's actions because of guilt, as long as it is not excessive, the imperial brother will turn a blind eye to these things."
It is not surprising that there are spies of the imperial sister in the palace, but unlike in the minister's palace, the spies in the palace are hidden deeply. ”Meng Xinran couldn't help but recall the reaction of all the harem people in the palace on the day of the Lantern Festival palace banquet.She thought about it carefully, but found nothing out of the ordinary.Except for those who were selected to enter the palace within three years, the rest of the ladies in the harem were all old people in the palace, and Meng Xinran was familiar with them.But......
Meng Xinran frowned, the only thing that made her feel strange that day was Concubine Li.In her memory, Concubine Li was a low-key person who rarely got involved in palace affairs.But that day at the palace banquet, Concubine Li seemed to be a different person than before.I don't know if she is too careful, she always feels that on the day of the cold palace, Concubine Li seems to be targeting her?
Meng Xinran thought for a moment and said, "Isn't it, Concubine Li?"
”Chu Jingqi didn't want to implicate Meng Xinran in the water.Although he was also suspicious of Concubine Li in his heart, he didn't say it.He swept away all his emotions and said, "The situation is not clear yet, and I dare not jump to conclusions." ”Meng Xinran understood, after all, it was about the harem, although Chu Jingqi was a prince, but the ladies of the harem were all the emperor's concubines, and the emperor was ultimately needed to speak.Chu Jingqi and Meng Xinran talked for a while, and Wei Hai suddenly came to the palace with an anxious face."
Lord Wang!"
Wei Hai saw that Chu Jingqi didn't have time to salute, so he hurriedly said, "Lord Wang, come into the palace and take a look, Your Majesty, the Emperor can't even drink the decoction now." ”Chu Jingqi was taken aback, didn't care about thinking, explained to Meng Xinran, and went straight to the palace with Wei Hai.At the same time, Shen Zizhi also received news from the palace, not from Emperor Dingyuan, but from Chu Jingrong.Chu Jingrong wrote a letter to him.The letter described in detail the time they spent together when they were children, and the memories of laughing and playing together.The words in the article are earnest and the emotions are sincere, if it weren't for Shen Zizhi knowing Chu Jingrong's personality, I'm afraid I would really be moved by her.Shen Zizhi didn't dare to be interested in Chu Jingrong's memories, but he cared about the last sentence on the letterhead: Lin Qi'an left an object before he died.Shen Zizhi put away the letter, and there was no emotion on his face.But there were already countless emotions surging in his heart.He will always remember the night Shen Ru was born, he received the news of his wife's premature birth and rushed back to the palace overnight, he thought that the last thing he would see would be his long-missed wife and newborn child, but he didn't expect that what he was waiting for in the end was the child's loud cry, and Lin Qi'an, who was sleeping forever.Lin Qi'an's departure is a lifelong pain for Shen Zizhi.But he didn't expect that one day, the culprit who killed her wife and daughter would remind him again.Shen Zizhi crumpled the letter, and he locked himself in the study for a long time.It wasn't until the father-in-law who delivered the message in the palace was in a hurry that he changed his clothes and went to the palace.Chu Jingrong had already sent people from the Litang Courtyard to guard at the gate of the palace, and she was relieved to see Shen Zizhi.Chu Jingrong urged Shen Xiang several times when to come over, if Shen Xiang didn't appear today, his head would be hanging.The little eunuch ran up with joy and said, "Lord Shen, you can come, the eldest princess has been waiting for you for a long time, please come with the slave." ”Shen Zizhi nodded slightly, but did not speak.The eunuch led the way in front, and Shen Zizhi walked behind with a facial expression.It wasn't until a palace called "Xian Ya Ge" appeared in his sight that Shen Zizhi's face suddenly cracked, revealing a little emotion.The eunuch stopped when he brought Shen Zizhi to the door of Xian Yage: "Lord Shen, the princess is waiting for you inside, and the slave will not go in, please." ”Shen Zizhi's eyes were heavy, and he pushed the door open.The familiar scenery in the palace was coming into view, and Shen Zizhi's lowered hand slowly clenched.He stood at the door for a long time, then turned around and closed the door, and in his eyes, he already had a plain face.Chu Jingrong was already waiting in the Xian Ya Pavilion.When Shen Zizhi entered, his eyes narrowed slightly, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Chu Jingrong wearing a bright red wedding dress, with pearlescent embellishments on her head, delicate makeup, a smile at the corner of her mouth, gentle eyebrows and eyes, and her hands were quietly prevented in front of her lower abdomen.She sat high on the first place, dignified and gorgeous.However, Shen Zizhi only glanced at it and looked away.He didn't salute or make a sound, just stood quietly below.Chu Jingrong's smile stiffened for a moment, and the fingers placed in front of her lower abdomen pinched into the flesh fiercely before she could maintain the smile on her face."
You're here."
With a sigh, Chu Jingrong faded away from her previous paranoia and madness, as if she had returned to the age of Shaohua and innocence.Chu Jingrong got up and walked down.Step by step, slowly walked into Shen Zizhi.The footsteps are firm, more like stepping into Shen Zizhi's heart.Shen Zizhi's always cold expression finally revealed other meanings, and the disgust in his eyes flashed, and he took two steps back.Chu Jingrong paused, then lifted it again, walked a little faster, and walked towards Shen Zizhi's side.One of the two retreated, and the other advanced.After a short distance, until Shen Zi knew that there was no way to retreat, he finally looked at Chu Jingrong and said, "Princess, please respect yourself." ”Just one sentence made Chu Jingrong stop.She looked at Shen Zizhi with some confusion.Princess, please respect yourself.After a lapse of several decades, she didn't expect to hear this sentence from Shen Zizhi's mouth again.Chu Jingrong thought in a trance, but now it seems to be different from before, the pain is still there, but the love is not so deep, as if she has been persistent for so many years, she only has this only little affection left for Shen Zizhi.The feelings of the once girlish disappeared, and Chu Jingrong seemed to wake up from a dream.Chu Jingrong smiled faintly at Shen Zizhi, stretched out her arms, and spun around in front of him, her skirt was flying, and the red wedding dress was extremely gorgeous.She tilted her head and asked expectantly, "Am I good-looking?"
I've been hiding this dress for years, and today I can finally wear it to you. ”Shen Zizhi had no words.His gaze fell on Chu Jingrong's face and body.Chu Jingrong, who was in front of him at this moment, looked a little like Lin Qi'an, and even with a smile, he was imitating Lin Qi'an's habits.
