dim lights

Qi Shiyu went to the palace to meet Yu Hanyi.

Yu Hanyi was lying on the couch, looking very weak, and his complexion was not very good.He has been ill for the past few days, and he can't even handle government affairs, let alone worry about Qi Shiyu's family affairs.

"Your Majesty, I will pay homage to Hua'er tonight. What else do you want to tell me?" Qi Shiyu smiled and knelt in front of the couch. He took the bowl and fed it to Yu Hanyi spoonful by spoonful.

Now that the Mobei army is ready to go, the little emperor doesn't know how long he can stay on the dragon chair. Qi Shiyu cherishes the opportunity to give Yu Hanyi medicine - after all, no one will give it to a precarious prisoner in the future. Feed medicine.

Yu Hanyi drank the medicine, his mouth was bitter, his brows were frowned, he didn't have much energy to control Shiyu, he just said: "What else can I say? I just advise the prince to be more cautious in his words and deeds in the future , don’t let me catch you in the wrong place, otherwise I’m afraid I’ll be a concubine the next time you enter the palace.”

Yu Hanyi didn't understand why the person he had loved for so many years, even though he tried his best, still didn't seem to understand him, let alone win any favor from him beyond the monarch and his ministers.

The eldest brother who died under his sword because of seizing the first son said that he mutilated his brothers and feet, had no emotions, was a naturally cold-blooded monster, and was destined to live a lonely life.But Yu Hanyi felt that no matter who experienced those destructive methods, they would not be as innocent as before.

"Your Majesty has defeated the evil minister. How can I get such a blessing." Qi Shiyu handed the empty medicine bowl to the palace man, and knelt down in front of Yu Hanyi's bed again, pretending to be diligent, but the words he said were not So obedient, "Is there anything else you want to explain, Your Majesty? If not, I'm still in a hurry to go back to the wedding room."

Yu Hanyi coughed a few times, and called Nuan Yan: "The pair of jade ruyis in the warehouse, give it to King Xuan, it's my congratulations to the prince's wedding. I have known the prince since childhood, even if the prince married a cat or dog Son, I can't be left in the cold."

Yu Hanyi's reply was really ugly, but Qi Shiyu still smiled and didn't care about it.Anyway, they are all people who are going to die, so what if they let him get three points?

Qi Shiyu took Ruyi and asked Cang Ming to hold it. Yu Hanyi ordered Nuan Yan to send him out of the palace, watching Qi Shiyu get into the carriage.

"When does the prince plan to tell the princess about that?" Cang Ming asked tentatively on the way back.The wooing of the courtiers has been quietly unfolding since the old prince was there, and now the civil and military courts are full of suspicions against King Xuan, but in fact many of them are loyal to the Qi family.

Qi Shiyu opened the brocade box and glanced at the pair of carefully carved emerald ruyis lying in the box. He saw that they were priceless treasures.He said: "Don't worry, take your time, say everything at once, and I'm afraid he will do something bad."

"The prince is so kind to the princess, what can the princess do wrong?" Cang Ming said with a smile.The prince is always suspicious of people, even the people next to him are not spared

"Who knows." But his intuition told Qi Shiyu that there are some things that should not be said too early.

The gate of the Prince's Mansion was wide open, and there were servants standing at the gate, all of them with different faces, waiting for the prince.

"What's going on?" Qi Shiyu got out of the carriage and asked the housekeeper.

The butler trembled all over, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "My lord, just now came the news from Qianlin Courtyard, my wangfei, my wangfei..."

--

Shen Tingyun collapsed on the roof, staring at the broken railing.

The servants in the courtyard were in a mess, and the steward also came, rushing to call the imperial doctor.

Shen Tingyun's mind was in a mess, and he couldn't remember what happened just now.

Obviously not long ago, it was the scene of reuniting with brother and brother Gong after a long absence. Xiao Ai hugged herself and called her brother affectionately, but after that... what happened after that? !

Why did Xiao Mi fall down?Why?

Shen Tingyun panted heavily and held his head tightly.All the memories seemed to be sucked away by some kind of terrifying force at the moment Fang Ai fell, Shen Tingyun couldn't remember anything, but anyone who tried to recall what happened at the moment Xiao Ai hugged him tightly would be I started to have a splitting headache, and even felt the tearing of my soul.

There was constant noise in the yard, and Shen Tingyun heard the voice of the prince among the voices.

"The king has only been out for a few hours, how did the princess become like this?! Where is Tingyun? What about Shen Tingyun?! Bring Shen Tingyun to see this king!"

Shen Tingyun had never heard such a hysterical voice from the prince, and was trembling with fright.The prince handed Xiao Ai to him, but he actually let Xiao Ai fall down the building under his nose.If the prince asks, how should I answer?

Tell the truth, tell the prince that you don't remember?

But will the prince believe in himself?

When Qi Shiyu found Shen Tingyun on the top of the east building, the little guard was curled up by the gazebo, staring at the direction of Yuehua's fall with blank eyes.

"It was you who pushed Hua'er down?" Qi Shiyu grabbed Shen Tingyun's front collar, pulled the sluggish little guard up, and pressed him against the pillar of the gazebo.

"Shen Tingyun, tell me!"

Shen Tingyun's spine was pinched by the cold stone pillar, and his entire back was almost numb.

He used to like the prince's hands very much. He thought the knuckles were slender and well-defined, which was very beautiful.But now, these hands were firmly pressed against his neck, as if ready to kill him at any moment.

"Subordinate, subordinate...don't remember..."

"Shen Tingyun, tell me the truth!"

"Really, really... I don't remember. My lord..." Shen Tingyun's eyes were already dizzy, and his vision became blurred, but the lord didn't intend to let go at all. He really wanted to kill himself...

"Shen Tingyun, you're lying..."

Qi Shiyu could no longer control his behavior.If Yuehua was just Yuehua, his wife who hadn't paid homage to him yet, maybe he could still retain the last sliver of reason to listen to the defense of the loyal little guard.

But Yuehua is not only the savior he has been looking for for many years, but also an indispensable pawn on his way to seize power.

That year, he was released from the woodshed by Fang Meng, and he fell seriously ill after returning home. When he recovered and finally had a chance to find him, Fang Meng had already killed him, and the two children of the Fang family were nowhere to be found.

At that time, the little son still had some innocence and enthusiasm, he knew how to repay his kindness, dared to love and hate, knew that Fang Meng's life would be even more difficult after losing his stepfather, so he quietly begged the master of the dark pavilion to help find him. them.

The old pavilion master failed to find anyone, so he went to check the life experience of the two children by the way, thinking that if he could find out where they came from, he might know where Fang Meng went later.As a result, what was found later was beyond everyone's imagination.

In his later years, the first emperor favored a dancer named Suyu, who was afraid of the empress, who is now the empress dowager, and hid her in the palace.When the first emperor was seriously ill, Suyu was afraid that her two children would be discovered by the queen, implicated, and wiped out, so taking advantage of the turmoil in the court, she managed to escape from the palace and remarried with a man named Shen with her two newborn children. scholar.

Shen Shusheng's family was poor, but he was very kind to Suyu, treating the two children as his own. However, Shen Shusheng was weak since he was a child, and died not long after getting married.Suyu is a woman, the world is not good, and she is not from a good family. There is no way to support her two children, so she has to marry Fang Tukuai again.

After digging out the news of the late emperor's illegitimate son, neither the dark pavilion nor the old prince at that time paid much attention to it at first.The former emperor had many princes, and now His Majesty also has many children. Whether there are two illegitimate children or not, Qi's ambition does not benefit much.

It wasn't until later that the emperor died suddenly, the prince who had always been well-behaved and docile changed drastically, and the battle for succession became dangerous. of puppet.

only……

Now that the little emperor is seriously ill, Mobei soldiers have already waited for an order, and the puppets who can inherit the throne are all under his control, but because of a change in Shen Tingyun, the most critical link was interrupted.

He has a full family, and he is a loyal minister and good general who saves the court from danger, not a rebellious minister and thief who commits treason!

Right now, there is no other royal family that can be replaced in a short time. Yue Hua must be there.

Obviously only the last step is missing!

"Shen Tingyun, I know that you like me, so I hate Hua'er. But I don't know, you hate him so much..." Qi Shiyu's eyes were bloodshot, and his lips were pressed against Shen Tingyun's ear, Said panting.

Shen Tingyun opened his mouth, wanting to defend himself, wanting to tell the prince that he did not, that he had never hated Xiao Ai, but his neck was tightly strangled, and even breathing became a luxury for him, let alone saying it any words.

"It's up to you, worthy? Today, if Hua'er is fine, this king can let go of the old relationship. If something happens to Hua'er, this king will definitely let you taste that life is worse than death."

The author says:

The first emperor refers to Yu Hanyi's grandfather, that is to say, Shen Tingyun is Yu Hanyi's uncle.
