Salted fish, he thought about it
Chapter 99 Want to Cook Salted Fish Day 99
After getting off the carriage, Jiang Juan and Xue Fangli were invited into the palace.
The palace was silent. Emperor Hongxing was lying on the bed. Compared with the last time Jiang Juan saw him, he was much thinner, and his whole body seemed lifeless.
Director Wang wiped away his tears, and leaned into Emperor Hongxing's ear and said something. Emperor Hongxing moved his fingers, his lips squirmed, and it took him a long time to utter two words: "Let go..."
Xue Fangli said slowly: "Royal father."
His expression was cold, and he had no sense of intimacy.
Emperor Hongxing stared at him for a long time, tears flickered in his cloudy eyes, and finally he just closed his eyes, "Come closer, let me take a good look at you."
"Nothing to see."
Xue Fangli smiled and said: "Father, you have seen it for many years."
Emperor Hongxing didn't think he was disobedient, he just looked at Xue Fangli for a long time, and then said with difficulty: "I'm sorry for you, and I'm sorry for Qingmei."
Putting him and Jiang Qingmei together, Xue Fangli just felt bored, he smiled lightly, but didn't say a word.
Jiang Juan keenly sensed that he was in a bad mood, turned his head to look at Xue Fangli, and then gently grabbed his fingers.
In the next second, Xue Fangli turned his back on the guest and took Jiang Juan's hand instead, rubbing his fingertips.
On the hospital bed, Emperor Hongxing started to cough again, and he said weakly: "Quickly, bring me the elixir."
Director Wang tried his best to persuade: "Your Majesty, don't take the pill, you should take it well."
Emperor Hongxing didn't listen, and even flew into a rage, "My elixir! Give me the elixir!"
Seeing this, Mr. Wang sighed silently, and had no choice but to fetch medicine for him.
Elixir...
Jiang Juan hesitated for a moment. Although he didn't like Emperor Hongxing, he still hinted to Xue Fangli in a low voice: "My lord, will the more you drink these pills, the worse your health will be?"
Xue Fangli glanced at him, and said casually: "Your husband is here, what do you care about other people?"
"I just……"
Jiang Juan wanted to explain, but there was no good reason, so he could only look at Xue Fangli helplessly.
"Understood, I will persuade you later."
Before Jiang Juan finished speaking, Xue Fangli lazily responded. Jiang Juan believed it was true, his eyes slowly rolled up, and he smiled happily, "Okay."
Xue Fangli's bright red lips also raised slightly, as if smiling, but his eyes were cold.
Persuade him?
How can it be?
Watching Emperor Hongxing grow old and his body was eroded by toxins was one of the fun things about him.
This is what his father deserves.
Isn't this what he did to him in the past?
Jiang Juan stayed with him for a while, and finally couldn't stay any longer.The doors and windows in the hall were closed tightly, and the air was not circulating. Jiang Juan felt a little uncomfortable. He said to Xue Fangli, "My lord, I want to go out for a walk. It's so stuffy inside."
Xue Fangli glanced at him, but he didn't force Jiang Juan to stay. After all, Jiang Juan was in poor health. He nodded and said, "Yes."
After saying goodbye to him, Jiang Juan walked out.
Compared with the imperial palace, the palace is still not worth mentioning, but it is also spacious enough. Jiang Juan looked left and right, and the maid standing by the side saw this and asked softly, "Crown princess, are you hot?"
"There is a water pavilion in the palace, with water flowing on three sides like waterfalls, it is very cool in summer."
Why is Jiang Juan not hot? When he heard it, he immediately became interested, "Can you take me there to have a look?"
The maid replied: "Come here, the princess."
Jiang Juan followed her all the way, and the sound of running water gradually approached. A water pavilion appeared in front of him. It was built near the water, and the windmill rotated, sending the water to the top of the water pavilion, and then slowly fell down.
"This water is spring water, quite sweet."
The maid said, and stretched out her hand to lift the veil. Jiang Juan hadn't followed her a few steps, and almost stepped on someone. He quickly apologized: "I'm sorry."
The other party had closed his eyes decadently, slumped on the ground in a big character shape, and was almost stepped on and remained motionless. Instead, Jiang Juan sat up when he heard the voice, "Brother Juan? Brother Juan, are you here?"
It turned out to be Xue Congyun.
I only asked about him in the carriage.
Jiang Juan nodded, "I came with the prince."
Xue Congyun crossed his legs and moved aside, patted the seat next to him, "Brother Tired, sit down."
Xue Congyun wiped it clean anyway, Jiang Juan sat down, Xue Congyun looked at him, and began to sigh again.
Jiang Juan asked him, "What's wrong with you?"
Xue Congyun muttered: "...not my father yet."
Xue Fangli had a bad relationship with Emperor Hongxing, but Xue Congyun loved Emperor Hongxing very much, otherwise Emperor Hongxing's condition would not have worsened, Xue Congyun immediately stopped fooling around and had to follow him to the palace to accompany him.
Jiang Juan thought for a while, and could only comfort him dryly: "I saw His Majesty just now, and I am quite energetic."
Xue Congyun shook his head, "But he..."
Emperor Hongxing's condition is really bad. Now it depends on how many days he can survive. When Xue Congyun thought of this, he became even more depressed.
Xue Congyun used to talk a lot and danced a lot, but today he was too lost, even more lonely than when he was lying on the railing last time, Jiang Juan looked at him and said, "Don't think about it."
"There is no candied haws for you to eat today, so I will comfort you with my hand."
Jiang Juan stretched out his hand and stroked his hair, "Snoring..."
The second half of the sentence is "I can't be scared." Jiang Juan thought about it and changed it himself, "Don't cry."
Xue Congjun said sullenly: "I didn't cry."
"Also, it's because the snoring and snoring hair can't be scared."
"What you say is what you say."
The hair was flipped, and the gentle touch came again and again. Xue Congyun looked at Jiang Juan, the boy's eyes were slightly bent downward, and his hands were stroking Xue Congyun's hair one by one.
There is not much verbal comfort, only gentle companionship.
Jiang Juan's smile was always inexplicably contagious, and Xue Congyun's melancholy dissipated a bit as he watched it, and he also laughed.
Seeing that Xue Congyun was finally getting better, Jiang Juan withdrew his hand and started playing with the water instead.
This water pavilion really cools off the heat. When the summer wind blows, the water drops are splashing everywhere. It is very comfortable, happier than the air-conditioned room.
If it is possible, Jiang Juan really wants to set up a bed here and sleep for a whole summer.
Happiness is always short-lived.
The accident came even more unexpectedly.
While the wind was blowing, suddenly someone ran all the way, screaming: "It's not good! It's not good——!"
"The Marquis of Anping led his troops into the palace!"
Jiang Juan was startled, but before he could understand the specific meaning of this sentence, Xue Congyun got up and ran away.
Jiang Juan subconsciously followed him.
Xue Congyun didn't go anywhere else, but the palace where Emperor Hongxing rested.
As soon as the door was pushed open, Emperor Hongxing was safe and sound, and Xue Congyun breathed a sigh of relief.
He ran too fast, and after a while, Jiang Juan came over. Xue Congyun was looking for Emperor Hongxing, but Jiang Juan wanted to find Xue Fangli, but he found that Xue Fangli was not here at all.
"Eunuch Wang, where is the king—the crown prince?"
"His Royal Highness has gone to see Marquis Anping."
Director Wang was sweating anxiously, "Why is it at this time, why is it at this time."
"General Jiang led the army to suppress the bandits, but he hasn't returned yet. The Marquis... Your Majesty treats him well."
Manager Wang waved his hand, "Oh!"
For Director Wang, this incident happened too suddenly. Jiang Juan knew the plot, but he didn't expect Anpinghou to do it so early.
In the original text, Marquis Anping invaded the capital after the floods in the south of the Yangtze River. After all, Marquis Anping also relied on the floods to gain popularity among the people and become the leader of the rebel army.
Now that there is nothing happening in the south of the Yangtze River, and there is no rebel army, where did the Marquis of Anping send troops to attack the palace?
Jiang Juan couldn't figure it out.
Jiang Juan started thinking about Xue Fangli when he couldn't figure it out.
Please don't have an accident, my lord.
Outside the palace.
Anping Hou was riding on the horse, he swept away the previous gloom and was quite full of ambition.
And behind Anpinghou, followed by a group of soldiers and horses, they looked alert, and the archers opened their bows and stretched their strings, aiming at Xue Fangli.
The same is true for Xue Fangli's side, at a moment of confrontation.
Xue Fangli smiled casually, "Marquis Anping, if I remember correctly, you shouldn't be in the capital right now."
Earlier, Su Feiyue escorted Marquis Anping to come to apologize, and Marquis Anping made a fuss about Prince Li's mansion. Su Feiyue promised to give Xue Fangli an explanation, and when Marquis Anping recovered, he kicked him out of the capital.
Of course, Xue Fangli scoffed at this.
What kind of confession is this?
But he couldn't be bothered to answer.
As for the soldiers and horses now...
Xue Fangli was thoughtful.
"Your Majesty is seriously ill, but you have trapped him in the palace. If the Marquis does not return to the capital, what will you do—" "Qing, Jun, Fang!"
He spoke righteously, but turned black and white, Xue Fangli just sneered, with a sarcasm on his face, "What a gentleman of Qing Dynasty, Lord Hou is really righteous."
Anping Hou said: "It's absurd."
He did go to the south of the Yangtze River once, and then trekked back to the capital overnight.
At this time, there were only a small number of people following Anpinghou, but even so, it was a vast area, much more than the imperial guards, and Anpinghou didn't think it was impossible to fight with them.
It's just—someone asked him to seek stability and deal with Xue Fangli for the time being.
Thinking of this, Marquis Anping said again: "Your Highness, you are cruel by nature, killing people like hemp, and you are unworthy of being a king. In this case, why not surrender early, lest you lose the battle and surrender again. Not only you will suffer, but your princess and concubine will also suffer. It's not good."
"Why do you want to mention him?"
Xue Fangli smiled slightly and said: "Marquis Anping, because of him, this king has dealt with you so many times, why don't you have a long memory? You miss others as long as you miss them, and you can miss my king's people too?"
After a pause, Xue Fangli said sympathetically, "Marquis Anping, if you miss me any more, he will only see this king in his heart, and he will not be able to leave him for a moment. This king is also very distressed."
"you……"
He clenched the rein tightly with his hand, Anpinghou didn't look very interested, he said in a blunt tone: "Your princess is so beautiful, you treat him as a treasure, so you can treat others like you, take a second look just to miss him? "
Xue Fangli asked with a leisurely smile: "Master Hou, did you just take another look?"
Marquis Anping annoyed him by asking, he gritted his teeth and said, "Of course!"
Xue Fangli smiled sarcastically again, "Then I just took another look."
He did not refute, but only made Anpinghou even more angry.
Marquis of Anping can clearly remember many things.
Xue Fangli threatened to take off his hands, forced him to kneel down in public to make amends, and humiliated him again and again!
Anger burned in his heart, almost burning out Anpinghou's reason.
"Speaking of which, there is one thing that I am quite confused about - where does Lord Hou's hostility towards me come from?"
Xue Fangli said casually again, "At first, this king only thought that Lord Hou was born with such a nature and hated evil like hatred. Later, I found out that Master Hou even bullied a weak woman, that's all. So this hostility is not only because of this Wang Pingsu acted insanely."
"Weak woman?"
It would be fine if Xue Fangli didn't mention this matter, but when it was brought up, Anping Hou was even more angry and gritted his teeth.
That day in the First Prince's territory, Marquis Anping broke his own jade pendant, but let the prostitute take Li Wang's badge and report to the government.
Also because of this incident, his previous reputation was lost, and he was ridiculed countless times!
Marquis Anping said bitterly: "Your Highness, you are really good at it!"
Xue Fangli smiled slightly, "Master Hou, have you ever thought that it's not my king's good tricks, but Master Hou—" "Too stupid."
As soon as these two words were spoken, Anping Hou was completely enraged, he immediately waved his arms, "Give it to me!"
"Catch the prince alive—!"
At this moment, Marquis Anping only had endless anger in his heart. He didn't want to seek stability, and he didn't want to deal with it anymore. Marquis Anping gave an order, and the soldiers and horses rushed forward one after another.
General Jiang is not there, but there are imperial guards in the palace.Emperor Hongxing came here to recuperate, but he brought a lot of imperial guards, but no matter how many there were, it was not as good as the soldiers and horses of Marquis Anping.
But Xue Fangli was still trying to provoke Anpinghou on purpose.
There is no other reason, the imperial guards are well-trained, and the troops led by the Marquis of Anping are probably just some recruited private soldiers. Compared with the imperial guards, they are very loose.
Sure enough, the two factions fought, and it didn't take long before the army led by Anpinghou was defeated. When Anpinghou pierced a man's body with his sword and raised his head again, the people he brought were all put to death. Not a lot!
waste!
Bunch of trash!
Anping Hou's complexion changed, and he stopped fighting. He stepped back, and immediately a cavalry stepped forward to cover him.
Xue Fangli raised his eyelids and laughed mockingly, "Come here, capture Marquis Anping alive."
The situation was turned upside down in an instant, the imperial guards chased after Anpinghou one after another, and Anpinghou retreated all the way until the cavalry was killed, so he had to flee in a hurry.
Xue Fangli asked him: "Master Hou, don't you want Qing Jun to side?"
Anping Hou Meiyu flashed a trace of regret, and then glared at Xue Fangli fiercely, no longer the forbearance of the past, and even seemed to have some blood feud with Xue Fangli.
"I will always take your life!"
"Master Hou, you are really ignorant of current affairs."
Xue Fangli raised his hand, and the archers aimed at Marquis Anping one after another, waiting for him to give orders.
"His Royal Highness, wait a minute."
At the very moment, someone stopped him, and his speech was neither too fast nor too slow, and he even had a smile on his face.
Xue Fangli paused, then turned around, Su Feiyue nodded to him with a smile, and there were many soldiers and horses behind him.
With Su Feiyue's look, the guards following him immediately let go of one person.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, it's bad—!"
Director Wang stumbled over and ran over, panicked: "The son-in-law, the son-in-law... took His Majesty and the Crown Princess hostage! His people are hiding in the imperial guards staying behind in the palace!"
Xue Fang lifted his eyelids.
He was still thinking about where the Marquis of Anping's soldiers and horses came from, and what role Su Feiyue played in it.
He really did his part.
Xue Fangli said word by word: "It turns out that all these years, your traveling around the mountains and rivers is a fake, and recruiting soldiers and horses is the truth. You have hidden it deeply."
Su Feiyue said helplessly: "Your Highness, I have no other choice. After all, I also have things I want to do. Besides... Didn't Your Highness notice it long ago?"
"My nephew, when he went south, he let His Highness's people follow him all the way, but he didn't know it, and almost fell short."
Su Feiyue sighed, "If he is half as intelligent as His Highness, I will be more at ease, but anyway, Your Highness, he is also my nephew, since I spared him the first time, I will spare him the second time." time."
Xue Fangli didn't respond, so Su Feiyue had no choice but to remind him: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is in the hands of the minister. You don't care, Your Majesty, the Crown Princess...you should be scrupulous, right?"
"It's a pity. General Jiang is still suppressing the bandits, and he hasn't rushed back to the capital, and the imperial guards are really limited. His Royal Highness wants to save the princess... but he has no power."
Xue Fangli looked at him expressionlessly, his expression was so cold that it was almost icy, and the chill all over his body was even more shocking.
After a long time, Xue Fangli's voice was cold, "Retract the arrow."
The archers lowered their hands one after another, Marquis Anping patted the dust on his clothes, and rode to Su Feiyue, Su Feiyue didn't say anything to him, but said to Xue Fangli with a warm face: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your noble hand. "
Xue Fangli just said indifferently: "Your request."
Su Feiyue whispered softly: "Someone will inform His Highness the Crown Prince later."
After finishing the words, Su Feiyue cupped her hands and walked into the palace.
Inside the hall.
Jiang Juan was dumbfounded.
He sat on the side, holding the armrest tightly with his fingers, and his breath was filled with the smell of blood. Jiang Juan hated this smell very much, so he lowered his head and didn't dare to look around.
Outside the open temple door, corpses were piled up, and blood flowed profusely.
Just now, just now, Jiang Juan was still waiting for the news. Suddenly, there were screams and the sound of swords clashing. Not long after, the door of the palace was kicked open, and many people in the costumes of the Imperial Guard held swords Walking in, drops of blood rolled down from the tip of the knife.
Jiang Juan had never experienced such a scene, but he roughly knew what it was like.
They seem to have been captured.
Knowing that Jiang Juan was timid, Xue Congyun asked him, "Brother Juan, are you okay?"
Jiang Juan reluctantly nodded, "It's okay."
In fact, Jiang Juan was not used to this kind of environment, but he also wanted to save face, so Jiang Juan had to try his best to stay calm.
Xue Congyun: "That's good, I'm afraid you will be scared and cry again."
Jiang Juan: "...not at all."
After saying a few words, there were footsteps outside the hall, Jiang Juan's eyelashes moved, and he immediately fell silent, feeling quite nervous.
"I told you earlier, I only deal with him, and you want to fight him."
"uncle……"
Su Feiyue stepped in first, followed by Marquis Anping.
Jiang Juan: "???"
Consort?Why do you still have the role of a son-in-law?
Forget Anping Hou, Jiang Juan is not surprised, after all, this is a plot, but Su Feiyue also got involved, Jiang Juan was at a loss.
"Princess."
Maybe because she noticed Jiang Juan's gaze, Su Feiyue lowered her head and nodded to him, her expression was as gentle as ever, as if she was still a gentle elder, and now it was not a scene of a palace change, but a banquet.
Jiang Juan: "What are you, what are you..."
He was so shocked that he ran out of words, but it was Xue Congyun who, after a moment of astonishment, cursed, "Good for you, Su Feiyue, and you—Marquis of Anping, you two are harboring evil intentions!"
Xue Congyun shouted, Su Feiyue seemed to have just noticed his existence, and then said: "Sixth prince, you are here."
Xue Congyun asked him: "How did my father feel sorry for you? Why did you take advantage of his serious illness to rebel? He values you so much, you..."
"Sixth Prince," Su Feiyue interrupted, "Your Majesty himself once said that he was sorry for this minister."
Xue Congyun was taken aback, Su Feiyue raised her hand, and said: "Come here, this is not the place where the sixth prince should stay, take him down."
He gave the order, and the "Imperial Guards" took a few steps forward, held down Xue Congyun and pushed away, Xue Congyun struggled and said, "I won't go, Brother Juan is here, I want to stay, I will be a hostage with Brother Juan! "
He wasn't afraid alone, he was just worried about Jiang Juan, and wanted to stay with Jiang Juan and talk with him.
Su Feiyue said tactfully: "Sixth prince, you'd better go."
Xue Congyun didn't think much about it, "I volunteered to be a hostage, and I will be your hostage together with Brother Juan."
Seeing that he didn't understand, Su Feiyue had no choice but to sigh: "Your Highness, you are not the princess, you stay as a hostage, it's useless and you can't threaten anyone."
Xue Congyun: "?"
Grass.
It is not very harmful and extremely insulting.
Unexpectedly, he was not worthy of being a hostage, Xue Congyun was dumbfounded, he was worried about Jiang Juan, and Jiang Juan was also worried about Xue Congyun, Jiang Juan asked anxiously, "Where are you taking him?"
Even in this situation, Su Feiyue always had a gentle attitude towards Shangjiang Juan, he explained: "Don't worry, Crown Princess, I won't attack the sixth prince, just let him rest in another place."
"Then I'll be with him."
Su Feiyue shook her head, "Princess Concubine, you are very important, here is heavily guarded, it is safer, you can stay here."
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to the sixth prince, let alone you. After the matter is completed, I will let you go away safe and sound."
Jiang Juan finally found a chance to ask him, "Why are you...planning to force the palace?"
Seeing Su Feiyue appearing here, Jiang Juan was surprised, but after the surprise, he felt that it made sense.
Where did the soldiers and horses of Marquis Anping come from?He has been staying in the capital, this is the foot of the emperor, if he dares to recruit troops, he will definitely be discovered.
And all along, Marquis Anping has been really brainless, Jiang Juan doesn't think he can do this.
——Having been dormant for many years, quietly replaced the imperial guards, and then sent out troops in one fell swoop when Emperor Hongxing was seriously ill and General Jiang was not in the capital.
Marquis Anping can't, but Su Feiyue can.
Just... why?
Isn't he the favorite student of his grandfather?
Isn't he going to clean up all the injustices in the world?
Wait a moment.
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Juan remembered something, and Su Feiyue also said, "Crown Princess, do you still remember that I talked with you about "The Story of Peach Blossom Spring"?"
Jiang Juan hesitated and said, "Yes."
Su Feiyue looked yearning, "How wonderful would it be if I could live in the Peach Blossom Spring?"
"you……"
Jiang Juan belatedly realized one thing.
He comes from modern times, which is a fair and just world, and there is a set of order to restrain everyone. Jiang Juan read "Peach Blossom Spring", what he read was the yearning of the ancients. After all, in ancient times, a strict hierarchy was the norm.
The son-in-law was full of praise for "The Story of Peach Blossom Spring", and he also affirmed that he saved the groom, but after Gu Puwang heard about it, he couldn't express it.
Why didn't he react then?
Even if Gu Puwang is like this, the son-in-law would agree, it's really strange.
"You want...to create a paradise?"
Jiang Juan asked Su Feiyue in shock.
Su Feiyue nodded lightly, "Under power, there must be oppression. I want there to be no more power and no oppression in this world."
Then you are pretty good.
This was Jiang Juan's first reaction.But the next moment, he turned his eyes and saw a severed limb outside the door. Jiang Juan's eyelashes trembled, and he found the biggest problem.
"Are you scared?"
Seeing this, Su Feiyue didn't take it seriously, "It's really shocking. Even when I wrote to the teacher and asked his opinion, the teacher not only stopped talking to me, but even stopped seeing me when he visited me last time. "
Jiang Juan remembered this, but it wasn't the point. He shook his head and said, "I'm not scared, it's just..."
"You said that there would be no more power in the world, and no more oppression, but you let people kill all the way in and killed so many people. To them, aren't you also oppressing them?"
Su Feiyue sighed: "Crown Princess, sacrifice is inevitable, as long as the final result is good, that's enough."
Jiang Juan couldn't understand, "If they are like you, they all hope to build a peach blossom garden and are willing to sacrifice their lives for it, that would be considered a sacrifice, but they are not, your people suddenly broke in and killed them, this is not a sacrifice , this is killing."
After hearing this, Su Feiyue just shook her head and said in disappointment: "Crown Princess, I thought that you, like me, have a paradise in your heart, but you don't want to..."
"You are no different from them."
Su Feiyue said: "Today we only sacrificed thousands of people, but in the future tens of millions of people will be benefited!"
"But the Taohuayuan you want, isn't it fair and free?"
Jiang Juan said, "You said you wanted to create a paradise, and then killed them without explanation. What's the difference between you and the power you hate?"
Su Feiyue was startled, and after a long time, she smiled slightly and said: "The Crown Princess is so eloquent."
This is not eloquent, Jiang Juan really thinks so.
Contrary to each other, Su Feiyue stopped talking with Jiang Juan, but said softly: "The princess should rest here, all this will end soon."
He walked past Jiang Juan and walked towards Emperor Hongxing who was lying on the bed and fell into a coma again. Jiang Juan asked him again: "You are like this...does the eldest princess know?"
Su Feiyue's eyes moved slightly, but she didn't speak, she just stared at Emperor Hongxing with a complicated expression.
His obsession for many years is finally coming to an end here.
Outside the palace.
The silk unfolded slowly, and the handwriting was strong and powerful.
——Killing himself before Youshi.
Xue Fangli glanced at him, his bright red lips parted slightly, and he smiled dangerously.
Lai Shi lowered his head in fear, but still tremblingly told Su Feiyue's confession, "Master Su said... I hope His Highness the Crown Prince will think more about the Crown Princess."
"It's good that Mr. Bai is his teacher, and he doesn't want to hurt the princess, but if His Royal Highness refuses, then Master Su has no choice but to..."
"roll."
Xue Fangli closed his eyes, his eyes were bloodshot, like a ghost.
The words have been brought, and the envoy dared not stay any longer when he saw the situation, and ran out on soft feet.
Tapping the table with his fingers, Xue Fangli was full of hostility, but he had to think quietly.
Jiang Sentao is still on his way back, and he won't be there until tomorrow.
The imperial guards in Beijing have already been transferred, but Su Feiyue's troops are also arriving one after another. Unlike the battle with Marquis Anping, the chance of winning the battle is not high if they are forced to fight.
What's more—even though he has thousands of troops, he only has Jiang Juan's weakness, and he worries and fears him, which makes him hesitate to move forward.
"Your Highness, the eldest princess is here."
The guards escorted the Eldest Princess Xue Fuying into the room, along with Gu Xiang, Gu Yunzhi and Gu Puwang.
Xue Fuying was dressed in fine clothes, her temples were disheveled, and she looked exhausted. She seemed to be crying all the way, but she tried her best to maintain the majesty of the daughter of the Tian family, "Let go..."
Gu Yunzhi said: "Your Highness, when the minister and Wang Pu led people away, the eldest princess was almost taken away."
After finishing the words, he sighed, "Why did he go astray."
It was fine if Gu Yunzhi didn't say anything, but when he said it, Xue Fuying began to cry again, "How could Feiyue do such a thing? There is still time. They, they..."
"For so many years, I thought he was traveling with me, but I didn't know that he was recruiting soldiers in private. I got along with him day and night, but I never found out that he harbored evil intentions. He..."
Xue Fuying was choked with sobs, she picked up the handkerchief and wiped away her tears, she became more and more haggard.
Xue Fuying said in a daze: "The number one scholar in this palace, how did he become a traitor today?"
To this day, Xue Fuying still remembers that year, the peonies in the capital bloomed really beautifully.
She sneaked out of the palace, originally to admire the flowers, when suddenly, she heard the voice of a young man.
"Teacher, the student's aspirations have never changed. In this life, I only want to - go to the turbid and clear, and clean up all the injustices in the world!"
Xue Fuying thought, who is it, what a big tone.
She opened the curtain and looked out. The young man in red rode forward, his robe fluttering, his brows were full of vigor and chic that belonged to a young man.
Maybe it was because of looking at it for too long, Xue Fuying was discovered, the young man glanced at it, and then he stretched out his hand, and picked off a peony flower, when passing by Xue Fuying, he raised his hand, and this peony flower was pinned to Xue Fuying's ear just like that back.
Xue Fuying was taken aback, she should have scolded Deng Tuzi, but she blushed all over, and in the end she just stared blankly at him going away, her heart beating non-stop.
Her number one scholar has the broadest mind in the world, and also has grand ambitions. He has been depressed and frustrated, but in the end he just laughed it off and let it go.
It turned out that this was what she thought, and it was only what she thought.
It turned out that he didn't laugh it off, nor did he let it go.
He—has a grudge in his heart and has been planning for years.
Even the person next to him doesn't know anything.
When did her number one scholar become like this?
In that year, he was entrusted by someone to clear up his grievances. As a result, the local government and businessmen colluded with each other, forced by the power, and the entrusted person bit him back. He was imprisoned and lynched.
But in the end, the person who bit him back, her number one scholar, was also rescued!
In the same year, he tried his best to escape, told Bai Xuechao about the matter, and finally got the emperor's password to thoroughly investigate the case. As a result, he went through a lot of hardships, and even on the way back to Beijing, he was shot several times with arrows and almost died. , His life is hanging by a thread, and the witnesses and material evidence will always be brought to him, only to wait for the emperor's brother to order to punish the officials of the facility.
But the result?
The emperor's foundation is not stable, and this matter has been involved in a lot, so he finally chose to set fire to the account books, and said to him-"When the water is clear, there will be no fish. Feiyue, this time, you just turn a blind eye and close your eyes." Come on, don't meddle in this matter."
At that time, her No. [-] man was drinking every day, and he couldn't get down. The young man who used to be proud of his life, fell into her arms and cried bitterly: "Fuying, I can't save anyone, I can't do anything."
"Fu Ying, am I wrong?"
Her number one scholar should not be like this.
He should be high-spirited, full of ambition, and his brows are full of romance.
Thinking about the past, Xue Fuying was even more sad, she burst into tears, and for a while, she was a little unstable, and she was on the verge of falling. Xue Fangli looked at her for a long time, and only told others: "Help aunt down and rest."
The guards obeyed the order and brought Xue Fuying down, Xue Fangli said slowly, "Master Gu, what do you think?"
Gu Yunzhi thought for a moment, "The eldest princess and the son-in-law have been deeply in love with each other for many years, and this cry is quite sincere, as if they were really deceived, but..."
"To be on the safe side, it's better to make people look after the eldest princess."
After a pause, Gu Yunzhi asked again: "Your Highness, did the son-in-law send someone here? What is his request?"
Xue Fangli knocked on the silk on the table. Gu Yunzhi looked over and his expression changed drastically, "You hour? It's getting late now, there are only two hours left!"
"Just now, General Jiang sent a letter from a pigeon. The army has already arrived in Lu'an County. If you go straight, General Jiang still has a chance to arrive. You can go to Panshui County because the palace is next to the mountain. He will never be able to come back before you. of!"
Xue Fangli said indifferently: "The meaning of the son-in-law is to make a quick decision."
For now, there is only delay.
But——Jiang Juan was still in their hands.
Xue Fangli looked into the distance, under the majestic mountains, the palace was splendid, the flowing water passed through the palace, and finally converged into a river, flowing into the distance.
His expression moved.
"Your Highness, water."
Walking in with Gu Yunzhi, Gu Puwang, who had never said a word, also discovered this point. He has only been in Dali Temple for one month, but he has solved many cases, relying on his meticulous insight.
Xue Fangli was about to speak when another guard hurried in.
Holding the picture scroll in his hand, he presented it to Xue Fangli, "Your Highness! Your Highness! This is a portrait that Yang Liusheng commissioned by His Highness some time ago based on the characteristics he dictated. He sent someone to send it to Your Highness immediately."
Xue Fangli took the scroll, opened it expressionlessly, and the person in the painting was——Hou Anping.
After staring at the picture scroll for a long time, Xue Fang suddenly had a guess in his heart. He swung his sleeves and wrote a letter, "Send it to General Jiang immediately."
The palace was silent. Emperor Hongxing was lying on the bed. Compared with the last time Jiang Juan saw him, he was much thinner, and his whole body seemed lifeless.
Director Wang wiped away his tears, and leaned into Emperor Hongxing's ear and said something. Emperor Hongxing moved his fingers, his lips squirmed, and it took him a long time to utter two words: "Let go..."
Xue Fangli said slowly: "Royal father."
His expression was cold, and he had no sense of intimacy.
Emperor Hongxing stared at him for a long time, tears flickered in his cloudy eyes, and finally he just closed his eyes, "Come closer, let me take a good look at you."
"Nothing to see."
Xue Fangli smiled and said: "Father, you have seen it for many years."
Emperor Hongxing didn't think he was disobedient, he just looked at Xue Fangli for a long time, and then said with difficulty: "I'm sorry for you, and I'm sorry for Qingmei."
Putting him and Jiang Qingmei together, Xue Fangli just felt bored, he smiled lightly, but didn't say a word.
Jiang Juan keenly sensed that he was in a bad mood, turned his head to look at Xue Fangli, and then gently grabbed his fingers.
In the next second, Xue Fangli turned his back on the guest and took Jiang Juan's hand instead, rubbing his fingertips.
On the hospital bed, Emperor Hongxing started to cough again, and he said weakly: "Quickly, bring me the elixir."
Director Wang tried his best to persuade: "Your Majesty, don't take the pill, you should take it well."
Emperor Hongxing didn't listen, and even flew into a rage, "My elixir! Give me the elixir!"
Seeing this, Mr. Wang sighed silently, and had no choice but to fetch medicine for him.
Elixir...
Jiang Juan hesitated for a moment. Although he didn't like Emperor Hongxing, he still hinted to Xue Fangli in a low voice: "My lord, will the more you drink these pills, the worse your health will be?"
Xue Fangli glanced at him, and said casually: "Your husband is here, what do you care about other people?"
"I just……"
Jiang Juan wanted to explain, but there was no good reason, so he could only look at Xue Fangli helplessly.
"Understood, I will persuade you later."
Before Jiang Juan finished speaking, Xue Fangli lazily responded. Jiang Juan believed it was true, his eyes slowly rolled up, and he smiled happily, "Okay."
Xue Fangli's bright red lips also raised slightly, as if smiling, but his eyes were cold.
Persuade him?
How can it be?
Watching Emperor Hongxing grow old and his body was eroded by toxins was one of the fun things about him.
This is what his father deserves.
Isn't this what he did to him in the past?
Jiang Juan stayed with him for a while, and finally couldn't stay any longer.The doors and windows in the hall were closed tightly, and the air was not circulating. Jiang Juan felt a little uncomfortable. He said to Xue Fangli, "My lord, I want to go out for a walk. It's so stuffy inside."
Xue Fangli glanced at him, but he didn't force Jiang Juan to stay. After all, Jiang Juan was in poor health. He nodded and said, "Yes."
After saying goodbye to him, Jiang Juan walked out.
Compared with the imperial palace, the palace is still not worth mentioning, but it is also spacious enough. Jiang Juan looked left and right, and the maid standing by the side saw this and asked softly, "Crown princess, are you hot?"
"There is a water pavilion in the palace, with water flowing on three sides like waterfalls, it is very cool in summer."
Why is Jiang Juan not hot? When he heard it, he immediately became interested, "Can you take me there to have a look?"
The maid replied: "Come here, the princess."
Jiang Juan followed her all the way, and the sound of running water gradually approached. A water pavilion appeared in front of him. It was built near the water, and the windmill rotated, sending the water to the top of the water pavilion, and then slowly fell down.
"This water is spring water, quite sweet."
The maid said, and stretched out her hand to lift the veil. Jiang Juan hadn't followed her a few steps, and almost stepped on someone. He quickly apologized: "I'm sorry."
The other party had closed his eyes decadently, slumped on the ground in a big character shape, and was almost stepped on and remained motionless. Instead, Jiang Juan sat up when he heard the voice, "Brother Juan? Brother Juan, are you here?"
It turned out to be Xue Congyun.
I only asked about him in the carriage.
Jiang Juan nodded, "I came with the prince."
Xue Congyun crossed his legs and moved aside, patted the seat next to him, "Brother Tired, sit down."
Xue Congyun wiped it clean anyway, Jiang Juan sat down, Xue Congyun looked at him, and began to sigh again.
Jiang Juan asked him, "What's wrong with you?"
Xue Congyun muttered: "...not my father yet."
Xue Fangli had a bad relationship with Emperor Hongxing, but Xue Congyun loved Emperor Hongxing very much, otherwise Emperor Hongxing's condition would not have worsened, Xue Congyun immediately stopped fooling around and had to follow him to the palace to accompany him.
Jiang Juan thought for a while, and could only comfort him dryly: "I saw His Majesty just now, and I am quite energetic."
Xue Congyun shook his head, "But he..."
Emperor Hongxing's condition is really bad. Now it depends on how many days he can survive. When Xue Congyun thought of this, he became even more depressed.
Xue Congyun used to talk a lot and danced a lot, but today he was too lost, even more lonely than when he was lying on the railing last time, Jiang Juan looked at him and said, "Don't think about it."
"There is no candied haws for you to eat today, so I will comfort you with my hand."
Jiang Juan stretched out his hand and stroked his hair, "Snoring..."
The second half of the sentence is "I can't be scared." Jiang Juan thought about it and changed it himself, "Don't cry."
Xue Congjun said sullenly: "I didn't cry."
"Also, it's because the snoring and snoring hair can't be scared."
"What you say is what you say."
The hair was flipped, and the gentle touch came again and again. Xue Congyun looked at Jiang Juan, the boy's eyes were slightly bent downward, and his hands were stroking Xue Congyun's hair one by one.
There is not much verbal comfort, only gentle companionship.
Jiang Juan's smile was always inexplicably contagious, and Xue Congyun's melancholy dissipated a bit as he watched it, and he also laughed.
Seeing that Xue Congyun was finally getting better, Jiang Juan withdrew his hand and started playing with the water instead.
This water pavilion really cools off the heat. When the summer wind blows, the water drops are splashing everywhere. It is very comfortable, happier than the air-conditioned room.
If it is possible, Jiang Juan really wants to set up a bed here and sleep for a whole summer.
Happiness is always short-lived.
The accident came even more unexpectedly.
While the wind was blowing, suddenly someone ran all the way, screaming: "It's not good! It's not good——!"
"The Marquis of Anping led his troops into the palace!"
Jiang Juan was startled, but before he could understand the specific meaning of this sentence, Xue Congyun got up and ran away.
Jiang Juan subconsciously followed him.
Xue Congyun didn't go anywhere else, but the palace where Emperor Hongxing rested.
As soon as the door was pushed open, Emperor Hongxing was safe and sound, and Xue Congyun breathed a sigh of relief.
He ran too fast, and after a while, Jiang Juan came over. Xue Congyun was looking for Emperor Hongxing, but Jiang Juan wanted to find Xue Fangli, but he found that Xue Fangli was not here at all.
"Eunuch Wang, where is the king—the crown prince?"
"His Royal Highness has gone to see Marquis Anping."
Director Wang was sweating anxiously, "Why is it at this time, why is it at this time."
"General Jiang led the army to suppress the bandits, but he hasn't returned yet. The Marquis... Your Majesty treats him well."
Manager Wang waved his hand, "Oh!"
For Director Wang, this incident happened too suddenly. Jiang Juan knew the plot, but he didn't expect Anpinghou to do it so early.
In the original text, Marquis Anping invaded the capital after the floods in the south of the Yangtze River. After all, Marquis Anping also relied on the floods to gain popularity among the people and become the leader of the rebel army.
Now that there is nothing happening in the south of the Yangtze River, and there is no rebel army, where did the Marquis of Anping send troops to attack the palace?
Jiang Juan couldn't figure it out.
Jiang Juan started thinking about Xue Fangli when he couldn't figure it out.
Please don't have an accident, my lord.
Outside the palace.
Anping Hou was riding on the horse, he swept away the previous gloom and was quite full of ambition.
And behind Anpinghou, followed by a group of soldiers and horses, they looked alert, and the archers opened their bows and stretched their strings, aiming at Xue Fangli.
The same is true for Xue Fangli's side, at a moment of confrontation.
Xue Fangli smiled casually, "Marquis Anping, if I remember correctly, you shouldn't be in the capital right now."
Earlier, Su Feiyue escorted Marquis Anping to come to apologize, and Marquis Anping made a fuss about Prince Li's mansion. Su Feiyue promised to give Xue Fangli an explanation, and when Marquis Anping recovered, he kicked him out of the capital.
Of course, Xue Fangli scoffed at this.
What kind of confession is this?
But he couldn't be bothered to answer.
As for the soldiers and horses now...
Xue Fangli was thoughtful.
"Your Majesty is seriously ill, but you have trapped him in the palace. If the Marquis does not return to the capital, what will you do—" "Qing, Jun, Fang!"
He spoke righteously, but turned black and white, Xue Fangli just sneered, with a sarcasm on his face, "What a gentleman of Qing Dynasty, Lord Hou is really righteous."
Anping Hou said: "It's absurd."
He did go to the south of the Yangtze River once, and then trekked back to the capital overnight.
At this time, there were only a small number of people following Anpinghou, but even so, it was a vast area, much more than the imperial guards, and Anpinghou didn't think it was impossible to fight with them.
It's just—someone asked him to seek stability and deal with Xue Fangli for the time being.
Thinking of this, Marquis Anping said again: "Your Highness, you are cruel by nature, killing people like hemp, and you are unworthy of being a king. In this case, why not surrender early, lest you lose the battle and surrender again. Not only you will suffer, but your princess and concubine will also suffer. It's not good."
"Why do you want to mention him?"
Xue Fangli smiled slightly and said: "Marquis Anping, because of him, this king has dealt with you so many times, why don't you have a long memory? You miss others as long as you miss them, and you can miss my king's people too?"
After a pause, Xue Fangli said sympathetically, "Marquis Anping, if you miss me any more, he will only see this king in his heart, and he will not be able to leave him for a moment. This king is also very distressed."
"you……"
He clenched the rein tightly with his hand, Anpinghou didn't look very interested, he said in a blunt tone: "Your princess is so beautiful, you treat him as a treasure, so you can treat others like you, take a second look just to miss him? "
Xue Fangli asked with a leisurely smile: "Master Hou, did you just take another look?"
Marquis Anping annoyed him by asking, he gritted his teeth and said, "Of course!"
Xue Fangli smiled sarcastically again, "Then I just took another look."
He did not refute, but only made Anpinghou even more angry.
Marquis of Anping can clearly remember many things.
Xue Fangli threatened to take off his hands, forced him to kneel down in public to make amends, and humiliated him again and again!
Anger burned in his heart, almost burning out Anpinghou's reason.
"Speaking of which, there is one thing that I am quite confused about - where does Lord Hou's hostility towards me come from?"
Xue Fangli said casually again, "At first, this king only thought that Lord Hou was born with such a nature and hated evil like hatred. Later, I found out that Master Hou even bullied a weak woman, that's all. So this hostility is not only because of this Wang Pingsu acted insanely."
"Weak woman?"
It would be fine if Xue Fangli didn't mention this matter, but when it was brought up, Anping Hou was even more angry and gritted his teeth.
That day in the First Prince's territory, Marquis Anping broke his own jade pendant, but let the prostitute take Li Wang's badge and report to the government.
Also because of this incident, his previous reputation was lost, and he was ridiculed countless times!
Marquis Anping said bitterly: "Your Highness, you are really good at it!"
Xue Fangli smiled slightly, "Master Hou, have you ever thought that it's not my king's good tricks, but Master Hou—" "Too stupid."
As soon as these two words were spoken, Anping Hou was completely enraged, he immediately waved his arms, "Give it to me!"
"Catch the prince alive—!"
At this moment, Marquis Anping only had endless anger in his heart. He didn't want to seek stability, and he didn't want to deal with it anymore. Marquis Anping gave an order, and the soldiers and horses rushed forward one after another.
General Jiang is not there, but there are imperial guards in the palace.Emperor Hongxing came here to recuperate, but he brought a lot of imperial guards, but no matter how many there were, it was not as good as the soldiers and horses of Marquis Anping.
But Xue Fangli was still trying to provoke Anpinghou on purpose.
There is no other reason, the imperial guards are well-trained, and the troops led by the Marquis of Anping are probably just some recruited private soldiers. Compared with the imperial guards, they are very loose.
Sure enough, the two factions fought, and it didn't take long before the army led by Anpinghou was defeated. When Anpinghou pierced a man's body with his sword and raised his head again, the people he brought were all put to death. Not a lot!
waste!
Bunch of trash!
Anping Hou's complexion changed, and he stopped fighting. He stepped back, and immediately a cavalry stepped forward to cover him.
Xue Fangli raised his eyelids and laughed mockingly, "Come here, capture Marquis Anping alive."
The situation was turned upside down in an instant, the imperial guards chased after Anpinghou one after another, and Anpinghou retreated all the way until the cavalry was killed, so he had to flee in a hurry.
Xue Fangli asked him: "Master Hou, don't you want Qing Jun to side?"
Anping Hou Meiyu flashed a trace of regret, and then glared at Xue Fangli fiercely, no longer the forbearance of the past, and even seemed to have some blood feud with Xue Fangli.
"I will always take your life!"
"Master Hou, you are really ignorant of current affairs."
Xue Fangli raised his hand, and the archers aimed at Marquis Anping one after another, waiting for him to give orders.
"His Royal Highness, wait a minute."
At the very moment, someone stopped him, and his speech was neither too fast nor too slow, and he even had a smile on his face.
Xue Fangli paused, then turned around, Su Feiyue nodded to him with a smile, and there were many soldiers and horses behind him.
With Su Feiyue's look, the guards following him immediately let go of one person.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, it's bad—!"
Director Wang stumbled over and ran over, panicked: "The son-in-law, the son-in-law... took His Majesty and the Crown Princess hostage! His people are hiding in the imperial guards staying behind in the palace!"
Xue Fang lifted his eyelids.
He was still thinking about where the Marquis of Anping's soldiers and horses came from, and what role Su Feiyue played in it.
He really did his part.
Xue Fangli said word by word: "It turns out that all these years, your traveling around the mountains and rivers is a fake, and recruiting soldiers and horses is the truth. You have hidden it deeply."
Su Feiyue said helplessly: "Your Highness, I have no other choice. After all, I also have things I want to do. Besides... Didn't Your Highness notice it long ago?"
"My nephew, when he went south, he let His Highness's people follow him all the way, but he didn't know it, and almost fell short."
Su Feiyue sighed, "If he is half as intelligent as His Highness, I will be more at ease, but anyway, Your Highness, he is also my nephew, since I spared him the first time, I will spare him the second time." time."
Xue Fangli didn't respond, so Su Feiyue had no choice but to remind him: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is in the hands of the minister. You don't care, Your Majesty, the Crown Princess...you should be scrupulous, right?"
"It's a pity. General Jiang is still suppressing the bandits, and he hasn't rushed back to the capital, and the imperial guards are really limited. His Royal Highness wants to save the princess... but he has no power."
Xue Fangli looked at him expressionlessly, his expression was so cold that it was almost icy, and the chill all over his body was even more shocking.
After a long time, Xue Fangli's voice was cold, "Retract the arrow."
The archers lowered their hands one after another, Marquis Anping patted the dust on his clothes, and rode to Su Feiyue, Su Feiyue didn't say anything to him, but said to Xue Fangli with a warm face: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your noble hand. "
Xue Fangli just said indifferently: "Your request."
Su Feiyue whispered softly: "Someone will inform His Highness the Crown Prince later."
After finishing the words, Su Feiyue cupped her hands and walked into the palace.
Inside the hall.
Jiang Juan was dumbfounded.
He sat on the side, holding the armrest tightly with his fingers, and his breath was filled with the smell of blood. Jiang Juan hated this smell very much, so he lowered his head and didn't dare to look around.
Outside the open temple door, corpses were piled up, and blood flowed profusely.
Just now, just now, Jiang Juan was still waiting for the news. Suddenly, there were screams and the sound of swords clashing. Not long after, the door of the palace was kicked open, and many people in the costumes of the Imperial Guard held swords Walking in, drops of blood rolled down from the tip of the knife.
Jiang Juan had never experienced such a scene, but he roughly knew what it was like.
They seem to have been captured.
Knowing that Jiang Juan was timid, Xue Congyun asked him, "Brother Juan, are you okay?"
Jiang Juan reluctantly nodded, "It's okay."
In fact, Jiang Juan was not used to this kind of environment, but he also wanted to save face, so Jiang Juan had to try his best to stay calm.
Xue Congyun: "That's good, I'm afraid you will be scared and cry again."
Jiang Juan: "...not at all."
After saying a few words, there were footsteps outside the hall, Jiang Juan's eyelashes moved, and he immediately fell silent, feeling quite nervous.
"I told you earlier, I only deal with him, and you want to fight him."
"uncle……"
Su Feiyue stepped in first, followed by Marquis Anping.
Jiang Juan: "???"
Consort?Why do you still have the role of a son-in-law?
Forget Anping Hou, Jiang Juan is not surprised, after all, this is a plot, but Su Feiyue also got involved, Jiang Juan was at a loss.
"Princess."
Maybe because she noticed Jiang Juan's gaze, Su Feiyue lowered her head and nodded to him, her expression was as gentle as ever, as if she was still a gentle elder, and now it was not a scene of a palace change, but a banquet.
Jiang Juan: "What are you, what are you..."
He was so shocked that he ran out of words, but it was Xue Congyun who, after a moment of astonishment, cursed, "Good for you, Su Feiyue, and you—Marquis of Anping, you two are harboring evil intentions!"
Xue Congyun shouted, Su Feiyue seemed to have just noticed his existence, and then said: "Sixth prince, you are here."
Xue Congyun asked him: "How did my father feel sorry for you? Why did you take advantage of his serious illness to rebel? He values you so much, you..."
"Sixth Prince," Su Feiyue interrupted, "Your Majesty himself once said that he was sorry for this minister."
Xue Congyun was taken aback, Su Feiyue raised her hand, and said: "Come here, this is not the place where the sixth prince should stay, take him down."
He gave the order, and the "Imperial Guards" took a few steps forward, held down Xue Congyun and pushed away, Xue Congyun struggled and said, "I won't go, Brother Juan is here, I want to stay, I will be a hostage with Brother Juan! "
He wasn't afraid alone, he was just worried about Jiang Juan, and wanted to stay with Jiang Juan and talk with him.
Su Feiyue said tactfully: "Sixth prince, you'd better go."
Xue Congyun didn't think much about it, "I volunteered to be a hostage, and I will be your hostage together with Brother Juan."
Seeing that he didn't understand, Su Feiyue had no choice but to sigh: "Your Highness, you are not the princess, you stay as a hostage, it's useless and you can't threaten anyone."
Xue Congyun: "?"
Grass.
It is not very harmful and extremely insulting.
Unexpectedly, he was not worthy of being a hostage, Xue Congyun was dumbfounded, he was worried about Jiang Juan, and Jiang Juan was also worried about Xue Congyun, Jiang Juan asked anxiously, "Where are you taking him?"
Even in this situation, Su Feiyue always had a gentle attitude towards Shangjiang Juan, he explained: "Don't worry, Crown Princess, I won't attack the sixth prince, just let him rest in another place."
"Then I'll be with him."
Su Feiyue shook her head, "Princess Concubine, you are very important, here is heavily guarded, it is safer, you can stay here."
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to the sixth prince, let alone you. After the matter is completed, I will let you go away safe and sound."
Jiang Juan finally found a chance to ask him, "Why are you...planning to force the palace?"
Seeing Su Feiyue appearing here, Jiang Juan was surprised, but after the surprise, he felt that it made sense.
Where did the soldiers and horses of Marquis Anping come from?He has been staying in the capital, this is the foot of the emperor, if he dares to recruit troops, he will definitely be discovered.
And all along, Marquis Anping has been really brainless, Jiang Juan doesn't think he can do this.
——Having been dormant for many years, quietly replaced the imperial guards, and then sent out troops in one fell swoop when Emperor Hongxing was seriously ill and General Jiang was not in the capital.
Marquis Anping can't, but Su Feiyue can.
Just... why?
Isn't he the favorite student of his grandfather?
Isn't he going to clean up all the injustices in the world?
Wait a moment.
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Juan remembered something, and Su Feiyue also said, "Crown Princess, do you still remember that I talked with you about "The Story of Peach Blossom Spring"?"
Jiang Juan hesitated and said, "Yes."
Su Feiyue looked yearning, "How wonderful would it be if I could live in the Peach Blossom Spring?"
"you……"
Jiang Juan belatedly realized one thing.
He comes from modern times, which is a fair and just world, and there is a set of order to restrain everyone. Jiang Juan read "Peach Blossom Spring", what he read was the yearning of the ancients. After all, in ancient times, a strict hierarchy was the norm.
The son-in-law was full of praise for "The Story of Peach Blossom Spring", and he also affirmed that he saved the groom, but after Gu Puwang heard about it, he couldn't express it.
Why didn't he react then?
Even if Gu Puwang is like this, the son-in-law would agree, it's really strange.
"You want...to create a paradise?"
Jiang Juan asked Su Feiyue in shock.
Su Feiyue nodded lightly, "Under power, there must be oppression. I want there to be no more power and no oppression in this world."
Then you are pretty good.
This was Jiang Juan's first reaction.But the next moment, he turned his eyes and saw a severed limb outside the door. Jiang Juan's eyelashes trembled, and he found the biggest problem.
"Are you scared?"
Seeing this, Su Feiyue didn't take it seriously, "It's really shocking. Even when I wrote to the teacher and asked his opinion, the teacher not only stopped talking to me, but even stopped seeing me when he visited me last time. "
Jiang Juan remembered this, but it wasn't the point. He shook his head and said, "I'm not scared, it's just..."
"You said that there would be no more power in the world, and no more oppression, but you let people kill all the way in and killed so many people. To them, aren't you also oppressing them?"
Su Feiyue sighed: "Crown Princess, sacrifice is inevitable, as long as the final result is good, that's enough."
Jiang Juan couldn't understand, "If they are like you, they all hope to build a peach blossom garden and are willing to sacrifice their lives for it, that would be considered a sacrifice, but they are not, your people suddenly broke in and killed them, this is not a sacrifice , this is killing."
After hearing this, Su Feiyue just shook her head and said in disappointment: "Crown Princess, I thought that you, like me, have a paradise in your heart, but you don't want to..."
"You are no different from them."
Su Feiyue said: "Today we only sacrificed thousands of people, but in the future tens of millions of people will be benefited!"
"But the Taohuayuan you want, isn't it fair and free?"
Jiang Juan said, "You said you wanted to create a paradise, and then killed them without explanation. What's the difference between you and the power you hate?"
Su Feiyue was startled, and after a long time, she smiled slightly and said: "The Crown Princess is so eloquent."
This is not eloquent, Jiang Juan really thinks so.
Contrary to each other, Su Feiyue stopped talking with Jiang Juan, but said softly: "The princess should rest here, all this will end soon."
He walked past Jiang Juan and walked towards Emperor Hongxing who was lying on the bed and fell into a coma again. Jiang Juan asked him again: "You are like this...does the eldest princess know?"
Su Feiyue's eyes moved slightly, but she didn't speak, she just stared at Emperor Hongxing with a complicated expression.
His obsession for many years is finally coming to an end here.
Outside the palace.
The silk unfolded slowly, and the handwriting was strong and powerful.
——Killing himself before Youshi.
Xue Fangli glanced at him, his bright red lips parted slightly, and he smiled dangerously.
Lai Shi lowered his head in fear, but still tremblingly told Su Feiyue's confession, "Master Su said... I hope His Highness the Crown Prince will think more about the Crown Princess."
"It's good that Mr. Bai is his teacher, and he doesn't want to hurt the princess, but if His Royal Highness refuses, then Master Su has no choice but to..."
"roll."
Xue Fangli closed his eyes, his eyes were bloodshot, like a ghost.
The words have been brought, and the envoy dared not stay any longer when he saw the situation, and ran out on soft feet.
Tapping the table with his fingers, Xue Fangli was full of hostility, but he had to think quietly.
Jiang Sentao is still on his way back, and he won't be there until tomorrow.
The imperial guards in Beijing have already been transferred, but Su Feiyue's troops are also arriving one after another. Unlike the battle with Marquis Anping, the chance of winning the battle is not high if they are forced to fight.
What's more—even though he has thousands of troops, he only has Jiang Juan's weakness, and he worries and fears him, which makes him hesitate to move forward.
"Your Highness, the eldest princess is here."
The guards escorted the Eldest Princess Xue Fuying into the room, along with Gu Xiang, Gu Yunzhi and Gu Puwang.
Xue Fuying was dressed in fine clothes, her temples were disheveled, and she looked exhausted. She seemed to be crying all the way, but she tried her best to maintain the majesty of the daughter of the Tian family, "Let go..."
Gu Yunzhi said: "Your Highness, when the minister and Wang Pu led people away, the eldest princess was almost taken away."
After finishing the words, he sighed, "Why did he go astray."
It was fine if Gu Yunzhi didn't say anything, but when he said it, Xue Fuying began to cry again, "How could Feiyue do such a thing? There is still time. They, they..."
"For so many years, I thought he was traveling with me, but I didn't know that he was recruiting soldiers in private. I got along with him day and night, but I never found out that he harbored evil intentions. He..."
Xue Fuying was choked with sobs, she picked up the handkerchief and wiped away her tears, she became more and more haggard.
Xue Fuying said in a daze: "The number one scholar in this palace, how did he become a traitor today?"
To this day, Xue Fuying still remembers that year, the peonies in the capital bloomed really beautifully.
She sneaked out of the palace, originally to admire the flowers, when suddenly, she heard the voice of a young man.
"Teacher, the student's aspirations have never changed. In this life, I only want to - go to the turbid and clear, and clean up all the injustices in the world!"
Xue Fuying thought, who is it, what a big tone.
She opened the curtain and looked out. The young man in red rode forward, his robe fluttering, his brows were full of vigor and chic that belonged to a young man.
Maybe it was because of looking at it for too long, Xue Fuying was discovered, the young man glanced at it, and then he stretched out his hand, and picked off a peony flower, when passing by Xue Fuying, he raised his hand, and this peony flower was pinned to Xue Fuying's ear just like that back.
Xue Fuying was taken aback, she should have scolded Deng Tuzi, but she blushed all over, and in the end she just stared blankly at him going away, her heart beating non-stop.
Her number one scholar has the broadest mind in the world, and also has grand ambitions. He has been depressed and frustrated, but in the end he just laughed it off and let it go.
It turned out that this was what she thought, and it was only what she thought.
It turned out that he didn't laugh it off, nor did he let it go.
He—has a grudge in his heart and has been planning for years.
Even the person next to him doesn't know anything.
When did her number one scholar become like this?
In that year, he was entrusted by someone to clear up his grievances. As a result, the local government and businessmen colluded with each other, forced by the power, and the entrusted person bit him back. He was imprisoned and lynched.
But in the end, the person who bit him back, her number one scholar, was also rescued!
In the same year, he tried his best to escape, told Bai Xuechao about the matter, and finally got the emperor's password to thoroughly investigate the case. As a result, he went through a lot of hardships, and even on the way back to Beijing, he was shot several times with arrows and almost died. , His life is hanging by a thread, and the witnesses and material evidence will always be brought to him, only to wait for the emperor's brother to order to punish the officials of the facility.
But the result?
The emperor's foundation is not stable, and this matter has been involved in a lot, so he finally chose to set fire to the account books, and said to him-"When the water is clear, there will be no fish. Feiyue, this time, you just turn a blind eye and close your eyes." Come on, don't meddle in this matter."
At that time, her No. [-] man was drinking every day, and he couldn't get down. The young man who used to be proud of his life, fell into her arms and cried bitterly: "Fuying, I can't save anyone, I can't do anything."
"Fu Ying, am I wrong?"
Her number one scholar should not be like this.
He should be high-spirited, full of ambition, and his brows are full of romance.
Thinking about the past, Xue Fuying was even more sad, she burst into tears, and for a while, she was a little unstable, and she was on the verge of falling. Xue Fangli looked at her for a long time, and only told others: "Help aunt down and rest."
The guards obeyed the order and brought Xue Fuying down, Xue Fangli said slowly, "Master Gu, what do you think?"
Gu Yunzhi thought for a moment, "The eldest princess and the son-in-law have been deeply in love with each other for many years, and this cry is quite sincere, as if they were really deceived, but..."
"To be on the safe side, it's better to make people look after the eldest princess."
After a pause, Gu Yunzhi asked again: "Your Highness, did the son-in-law send someone here? What is his request?"
Xue Fangli knocked on the silk on the table. Gu Yunzhi looked over and his expression changed drastically, "You hour? It's getting late now, there are only two hours left!"
"Just now, General Jiang sent a letter from a pigeon. The army has already arrived in Lu'an County. If you go straight, General Jiang still has a chance to arrive. You can go to Panshui County because the palace is next to the mountain. He will never be able to come back before you. of!"
Xue Fangli said indifferently: "The meaning of the son-in-law is to make a quick decision."
For now, there is only delay.
But——Jiang Juan was still in their hands.
Xue Fangli looked into the distance, under the majestic mountains, the palace was splendid, the flowing water passed through the palace, and finally converged into a river, flowing into the distance.
His expression moved.
"Your Highness, water."
Walking in with Gu Yunzhi, Gu Puwang, who had never said a word, also discovered this point. He has only been in Dali Temple for one month, but he has solved many cases, relying on his meticulous insight.
Xue Fangli was about to speak when another guard hurried in.
Holding the picture scroll in his hand, he presented it to Xue Fangli, "Your Highness! Your Highness! This is a portrait that Yang Liusheng commissioned by His Highness some time ago based on the characteristics he dictated. He sent someone to send it to Your Highness immediately."
Xue Fangli took the scroll, opened it expressionlessly, and the person in the painting was——Hou Anping.
After staring at the picture scroll for a long time, Xue Fang suddenly had a guess in his heart. He swung his sleeves and wrote a letter, "Send it to General Jiang immediately."
