Rong Lan

Chapter 41 The Empress Dowager

"Hai Hu sent troops ahead of time, the general who attacked our army was caught off guard, and Hukou Pass was almost lost. Do you have anything to say about this?" Chong Yi asked calmly, pinching the fox's tail and holding the little fox in his palm.

"No." Rong Lan shook her head, pouted and laughed at herself: "The border guards are well-prepared, and Beijue's treacherous plot failed. I thought you were here to ask me what happened to the military supplies that were secretly collected? So you just came to doubt mine."

Rong Lan really didn't expect Beijue to strike first, and the battle broke out so suddenly.He asked the Empress Dowager to help him conceal the matter of military pay and armaments, and he didn't expect to be able to hide it, but he wanted to persuade the Empress Dowager to issue the decree to abolish the Empress sooner.It is obvious that things will be exposed when the war suddenly breaks out.

Zhong Yi said in a deep voice: "Lan'er, I think you already know what the antidote to heart-burning water is. Qian Yutai will not be willing to marry her daughter to you again. You stay with me, and I will make it up to you. Regret the marriage." You don't have to worry, after the victory, Qianyu Zhuang will get [-]% of Beijue's salt trading rights, and there is no loss."

Rong Lan blinked when she heard the words, and laughed even more self-deprecatingly: "The Emperor dares to know everything! The two conditions of marriage proposal and Yansha are not fulfilled. If the Empress Dowager and Cheng He didn't run to tell the emperor at the same time, it must be Qian Yu The people in Zhuang said it themselves."

Chong Yi nodded: "It's Qian Yutai."

Rong Lan understood, and thought to himself, he really can't play Chong Yi.

Thinking about it, he, the Minister of the Household Department, sold himself. Although Qianyuzhuang is in the Jianghu, he will never offend the court easily. Besides, his real identity may have been found out with the connections of Qianyuzhuang.

If Qian Yutai dared to give the dowry, he must have asked the emperor what he meant in advance.

Back then Chong Yi casually told him that he had sold him for a good price, but he thought he was smart and thought he had a good way to make money, so he worked hard at the household department to increase his value so that Qian Yu Zhuang would pay more money to "buy" Once he went back to be the son-in-law who made money, he was proud that he was better than Chong Yi and sold himself to be more valuable.

In the end, he was still sold by Zhongyi!

Thinking back now, maybe Zhong Yi designed Fucheng's game from the very beginning. He was naive enough to be a fool at best!

This feeling made Rong Lan very unhappy!So he decided to win the round!

So he said: "Chongyi, you know exactly what I'm seeking from the beginning to the end! Your life is not far away, and I have nothing to help you. We will return from this bridge after you are dethroned." Return on the bridge. You are not in the same world as me, even if I don’t marry Qianyu Suxue, and you accept the gift of my breakup, I won’t stay and I still have to go.”

Chong Yi's face became darker and darker with Rong Lan's words. Rong Lan shut up, and he squinted and sneered: "Really? Since you don't want to stay, why are you so persistent in asking me to destroy Haishu? You deny that Haihu The early dispatch of troops has something to do with you, so you must not know the reason for his sudden dispatch of troops."

Chong Yi approached step by step, Rong Lan kept backing away, feeling inexplicably panicked.

"There are rumors that I am about to abolish the queen. Haihu sent troops just after hearing the rumors, and the person who delivered the news should be familiar to you."

Rong Lan looked up in surprise: "Who is it?!"

"Bring the person up." Chong Yi ordered softly, and Mo Xuan stepped forward and threw a person into the prison.

Rong Lan looked down at the man for a while, blinked and wondered: "Um... are you sure I'm familiar with this man?"

It's good that he didn't speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the man who was thrown in, tortured, and covered in blood and blood grabbed his clothes and said, "My lord! Are you here to save Quan Hai?"

Rong Lan frowned: "I don't know you."

The person Rong Lan said he didn't know was none other than Quan Hai, the purchaser's father-in-law who was robbed from the dungeon before.

Besides, after Quan Hai got out of the sky prison, he hid all the way to Beijue and went to Beijue to report the news. Only then did Beijue Shanyu Haihu realize that he had been deceived, and decided to immediately send troops to attack Dazhou.

Moxuan sent people to search for Quanhai for a long time, and finally captured him in Beijue territory. With Quanhai's arrest, Zhongyi knew that Haihu's plan to send troops had changed a few days ago, and Ji Penghe rushed back to northern Xinjiang. , Da Zhou is not completely defenseless.

Chong Yi originally thought that Quan Hai was the person Hai Hu placed next to his younger sister Hai Shu, but after extorting a confession through torture, the truth was far beyond his expectations!

This room, Rong Lan said that he didn't know Quan Hai, Quan Hai was excited when he heard the words, and tried his best to prove the facts.

"How could the prince not know the young one?! The young one has taken refuge in Beijue, and everything he has done so far has been obeyed by the prince!"

"Ten years ago, the prince drowned in the lotus pond. It was the little one who helped you plant an opportunity to get close to the emperor! At the time in Qi County, it was also the little rumor that you entered the palace as a favor and sent General Rong back to Miaonan. The princess called Miaonan." The assassination of the emperor by a dead man gave you a chance to defend the emperor and gain the trust of the emperor!"

"Oh! Yes! Also! It's the little one who deliberately informed the Queen Mother about the identity of the Empress Dowager's son, so that the Empress Dowager sent someone to kill you, and then missed the arrow that was aimed at you, so as to eliminate their doubts about the identity of the son!"

"Even the prince sent someone to rescue the young one, and ordered the young one to tell Shanyu of Beijue the news that the emperor is about to abolish the empress!"

Rong Lan's expression didn't change much during Quan Hai's convincing testimony, he turned to look at Zhong Yi: "I don't know him, and none of the things he did was ordered by me."

Chong Yi only looked back at Rong Lan coldly.

But I heard Quan Hai say again: "My son! Quan Hai will be your ox and horse to help you complete the great cause of restoring the country. You can't turn your face against others! As long as you hand over the real token of the Southern King, the emperor will let you go. You, too, will let the little one go! The little one doesn’t want to die! I beg you to show kindness for the sake of Quan Hai’s doing so much for you, and save the little one!”

Rong Lan took a step back, pulled out the hem of the clothes held by Quan Hai, and denied it for the third time: "I don't know him, and I have never thought about restoring the country, and I have never heard of the Nanwang Token."

Chong Yi waved his hand, and Quan Hai was dragged away. Before he left, he was still shouting at the top of his lungs: "My lord! You can't just leave him alone! My lord——!"

"You say you don't know Quan Hai, so how do you explain that there is another person?" As soon as Chong Yi finished speaking, Mo Xuan threw another person into the prison.

Rong Lan looked down, waiting to see who the tortured and comatose person was, she couldn't help being surprised!

"Mier?!"

"Are you surprised?" Chong Yi asked with a smile, there was no warmth in his stern eyes, only sarcasm, "You drove her away not because she couldn't play the song well, nor because her breasts were not big enough. Mier's identity It was revealed that you were using your mother's sword to kill people! But you didn't expect Mo Xuan to secretly prevent the mother from cleaning up the waste children, let alone Ying Yi, right?"

Rong Lan remained silent. The main reason why he drove Mi Er away was not to send a message to the queen mother, but the first night he entered the palace. He was careful about Mier.

He had thought before that Chongyi's assassination on the way back to Beijing from Miaonan was because someone had leaked the emperor's whereabouts, and he and Mi'er were the only two outsiders who were most suspected.

He is naturally not so boring, Mi Er is the queen mother's secret agent, and it is impossible to frame Chong Yi.He originally thought that Mo Xuan would find out the third suspect. Who would have thought that Mier, who was a pleasing passer-by from the beginning, bought Chu Ye just to invite a doctor to the brothel, and his identity would be so complicated. !

Obviously, with Quan Hai's testimonial, Chong Yi thought that Mi'er's real master was him, not to mention...

This misunderstanding is a bit difficult to explain now!

Rong Lan raised her eyes in silence for a moment, her expression calm: "Chongyi, believe it or not, I sent Yingyi to follow her to save her, not to kill her. My principle of doing things is never to make things difficult for women."

"Save her?" Chong Yi smiled even colder: "So, are you reluctant to part with your own sister? So you changed your mind and wanted to save her!"

"My younger sister...?" Rong Lan subconsciously asked, and saw Mo Xuan tearing away Mier's skirt, raising his sword and slashing open his palm, dripping blood on the lower left three inches of Mier's collarbone, where human blood appeared immediately A golden cicada imprint.

Rong Lan was surprised, but he didn't want his clothes to be torn apart in front of him.

Chong Yi raised his sword and dropped his hand, dark red blood dripped from his palm onto the fair skin of the person in front of him, and the same golden cicada imprint was reflected in the blood color, which was extremely eye-catching!

Rong Lan lowered her head, completely dumbfounded!

Although he didn't know why he had this mark, he still knew what the same mark as Mi'er's meant.Now he is really speechless!He has been feeling for a long time that Mier's identity is complicated, and he never thought that Mier would be his sister!

Close blood relative, if he was Chong Yi, he would also doubt that Mier obeyed his orders.

Mo Xuan led Mi'er to disappear, Zhong Yi looked at the imprint in front of Rong Lan and was silent for a moment, pinching Rong Lan's jaw, forcing Rong Lan to look at him: "How is it? What else do you have to say now? ?!"

Chong Yi's hand was so strong that Rong Lan felt that his mandible was crushed in an instant, and tears filled his eyes in an instant.

He didn't speak, just waiting for the tears to return, but he couldn't restrain his normal physiological reaction, and there were still small drops of water hanging on his long lower eyelashes.

The autumn water cuts the pupils, and the waves ripple, it looks so pitiful.

Chong Yi let go of his hand slowly, as if to wipe Rong Lan's tears: "Lan'er, as long as you hand over the token of the Southern King, give up the restoration of the country, and choose to stay by my side, I can act as if nothing happened."

Rong Lan tilted her head to avoid the touch of Zhong Yi: "No need! Mo Xuan used Mi'er to test my elder brother. My elder brother was fooled by you because he didn't know anything. He came to remind me to be careful about Mier. You want me to I recognize it, I recognize it, you kill me! I just ask you to let go of my sister and the Rong family, and... even if you pity me, you can abolish the queen before killing me, okay?"
