Yichun Ji: Years Voiceless

Chapter 36 "Hidden Heroes"

After being released from death row, Luan Yu has been having trouble sleeping and eating. Usually, Qianying carefully prepared three meals, but now that gentle and well-behaved person is locked in a cold and damp prison by himself and tortured... Although Luan Yu was deeply angry with Qianying because of the Helanxiang incident, how could such a long time of favor and affection disappear so easily?

Luan Yu was tossing and turning on the bed, suffering from a splitting headache. While wondering whether Qianying was really the culprit, he also vaguely hoped that this was just a big coincidence. These two things had nothing to do with Qianying. If so It is only necessary to lock up Qianying for a few days, impose a slight punishment, and block the mouths of civil and military officials, and then bring Qianying back.

The moon and stars are scarce, and the black magpies fly south.Luan Yu was disturbed by the deep-rooted sorrow and loneliness so that he couldn't sleep at night. He put on his robe with a sullen face, and walked out of the bedroom calmly. He turned to a dark corner and said in a deep voice, "Come out."

Immediately, the dark guard, who was dressed in night clothes, walked silently, and could barely detect his breath, walked up to Luan Yu, knelt down and replied, "What is your majesty's order?"

Luan Yu gathered his loose robe, and his long hair was let down carelessly. He looked quite embarrassed, but he did not lose the majesty of the emperor at all: "Go and follow Liu Sheng secretly, and find out who is behind the Helanxiang incident. , Does it have anything to do with Zhang... Qianying?" The dark guard, who had been trained for a long time, said calmly, "Yes, Your Majesty."

After ordering the secret guards, Luan Yu stood alone in the deserted palace courtyard, recalling Qianying's tenderness and consideration, talking and laughing at Yanyan, even though he once regarded him as Zhang Er's substitute, but now... I can't tell what kind of feelings I have for him.Luan Yu's face was as dark as water, and he frowned and whispered, "Qianying...what should I do with you..."

The dark guard had undergone the most rigorous training in the Yongqi Dynasty, and after several rounds of selection, the current one was selected. He usually secretly protects Luan Yu and is inseparable.It was the first time to let one's hidden guard leave for the sake of others. It can be seen that Qianying's position in Luan Yu's heart is already extraordinary, but it is a pity that Luan Yu himself still can't see it clearly.

After three difficult days, Luan Yu, who was still poisoned and suffered from insomnia all night, was already extremely depressed. He braced his exhausted body to go to court every day, and listened to Liu Sheng's report on the latest progress of the Helanxiang case, but he was secretly thinking about planning , How can Qianying be cleared of suspicion.

After the morning court was over, Luan Yu went back to the study with a heavy heart, looking at the mountain of memorials, but he didn't have any intention of dealing with them at all.Suddenly, the dark guard who had disappeared for three days quietly turned into the study from the window.

The dark guard was busy with travel and dust, but his tone was still calm and indifferent: "Return to Your Majesty, according to Mr. Liu's clues, I have checked the footprints and traces of the scene, and squatted to investigate the patrolling of the palace and Mr. He's mansion for a few days. I can confirm that , Mr. Qianying has never been out of the palace, let alone Mr. He's mansion."

Hearing this, Luan Yu felt relieved, and then frowned again. He was very glad that Qianying didn't want to harm him, but he also felt extremely guilty for the suffering Qianying had suffered these days.Luan Yu's tone was still serious, but there was some joy in it: "Go, go to the prison."

The atmosphere in the death row was weird, and the guards in charge of guarding Qianying all looked panic-stricken. When the eunuch informed King Yongqi of his visit, everyone was so shocked that their legs went limp.As soon as Luan Yu entered the prison, he noticed the very abnormal atmosphere, and asked coldly, "What's going on?"

The guards felt cold sweat pouring out of their backs, they knelt down one after another, lowered their heads not daring to look at King Yongqi's face, and said in trembling voices: "Go back to Your Majesty, the prisoner... ...he died......"

Luan Yu suddenly felt a "buzz" in his head, as if there was a stormy sea, lightning and thunder, which cut off all his thoughts. He rushed to the prison where Qianying was crazily, but only saw a man in tattered clothes and messy hair. , lying lifeless on the haystack.

Luan Yu walked into the prison in disbelief, brushing away the hair that covered Qianying's face, the face that was supposed to be smart and handsome was lifeless at this moment, Luan Yu sniffed Qianying's breath with the last hope, but didn't. To the slightest breath.He hugged Qianying desperately, only to find that Qianying's body was as light as a piece of paper, soft as if there were no bones, and the person who was originally alive was lying softly in his arms...

The majestic and stern emperor burst into tears like a child at this moment, and the scene from many years ago was repeated again, Luan Yu cried frantically, and said to himself: "Qianying...Qianying! How is it possible! Aren't you a Lingshi, how could you die...why...why!"

The guards and eunuchs stood aside silently, not daring to see the madness and collapse of a generation of emperors.Luan Yu held Qianying's pale face, cried and said: "Qianying, wake up, don't sleep, I'll pick you up. Let's go back to the palace. I'll buy you whatever you want. Candied haws? Sweet-scented osmanthus cake? Didn’t you say that you want to make peony cakes when the peony blooms? It’s still half a month, and the peony will bloom soon. Wake up, don’t you like watching peony the most... ..”
