Travel back to ancient times to play danmei

When Liu Juqi hurried back, he saw a group of people surrounded by the main hall of the East Palace. Emperor Fenglan sat in front of him with a displeased expression, sipping tea with a cup in his hand, Zhang Luxin knelt down tremblingly, Xuan Yiyu three The brothers stood behind the Fenglan Emperor's seat without saying a word, and the big and small palace people of Cunfang Hall also knelt in a row in the outer hall.

Emperor Fenglan saw Liu Juqi looking outside, and gave orders to the servants beside him, and Liu Juqi was immediately invited in.

"Father...my son was really wronged. A while ago, my son was stung by a bee and stayed behind closed doors at the Cunfang Hall. Where did the talk of a private meeting come from?" Zhang Luxin said aggrievedly.

"If it's groundless, why should I come here? Come and bring the corpse up." Emperor Feng Lan squinted at the calm Xuan Yixi. Xuan Yixi stabbed him here today. If the truth is true In this way, Zhang Luxin really can't stay with the prince any longer.

As soon as Zhang Luxin saw the emerald green clothes of the corpse, her face immediately turned pale, and her body went limp in disbelief, "Shuangbi...how could Shuangbi..."

Two days ago, Shuangbi disappeared in the evening, and she only received a report saying that Shuangbi was temporarily transferred to help elsewhere. corpse.

Lifting off the white cloth covering the corpse, everyone around gasped and vomited. Liu Juqi almost vomited out the snacks he ate at Si Lejian just now. Xuan Yichen gently held his hand, bringing the bamboo fragrance The handkerchief was stuffed into him, "Cover your mouth and nose, don't read if you don't want to."

Shuangbi's body was found in the depths of the lotus pond, it was fine to be soaked white, and her face was scratched badly, it was extremely miserable.

Zhang Luxin took a few steps back, not daring to take a second look at all, and kowtowed fearfully, "I beg father to be the master, Shuangbi is the dowry maid of my servant, she, she must have been murdered!"

As Zhang Luxin said, she glanced at Liu Juqi meaningfully, and Liu Juqi stared back viciously, but Emperor Feng Lan didn't take Zhang Luxin's hint to heart at all, and nodded to signal the corpse, who immediately picked up the corpse On the left sleeve, there are a few words engraved on that white and tender arm. After a rough recognition, it is actually: The empress has an affair, kill me to silence it.

The corpse guard broke the wooden hairpin tightly held by Shuangbi's right hand, compared the condition of the wound, and reported, "Your Majesty, this wound was indeed stabbed out by herself with the hairpin before she died. After checking her nose and mouth, it can be seen that this girl Died by drowning, probably wrote these words while Shentang was struggling."

Xuan Yiyu's body was on the verge of falling, Xiao Shunzi quickly stepped forward to help him, Shuangbi was smart and courteous, and often helped His Highness resist Zhang's verbal swords, no wonder Xuan Yiyu was sad when he heard the news of Shuangbi's death, "Your Highness , the dead cannot be brought back to life, Shuangbi, she..."

Liu Juqi approached Emperor Fenglan and whispered, "Uncle Emperor, let Yiyu go back first, he is not in good health, it's better not to be stimulated by this."

Emperor Fenglan promised, ordered two people and said, "You wait for the prince to go in and rest, and Xiao Shunzi stays."

Zhang Luxin just recovered from the shock at this moment, the lettering on Shuangbi's arm broke out in a cold sweat, "Father! My son did not kill anyone! No adultery!"

Xuan Yixi snorted coldly. He planned for half a month and weaved a net with no loopholes. No matter how much this woman quibbles, she can't wash away the suspicion on her body, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Xiao Shunzi , he is the personal eunuch of elder brother."

"Xiao Shunzi, is it true that the prince has never had a room with the princess?" Emperor Fenglan's tone was majestic, and Xiao Shunzi knelt down nervously and said, "Reporting to the emperor, the prince was not in good health at the beginning of his wedding, so he postponed the marriage. Zhou Gongli, later... Later, the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince were not on good terms, so there has been no..."

"I see, you go down to serve the prince." Emperor Fenglan's face was cold, and he asked an old woman to examine Zhang Luxin, but Zhang Luxin suddenly became flustered, crying endlessly, saying that this was humiliating her, and finally He was still carried into the room by a few thick maids, but when he came out again, his hair was disheveled, and he lost the momentum just now.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Princess is indeed broken, and she seems to be pregnant."

Emperor Feng Lan frowned, if Zhang Luxin was just aggressive and arrogant, it would be fine, but now she has an affair and is pregnant, it is really too much, Xuan Yiyu is a little too honest, doesn't it mean he doesn't know anything?

Zhang Luxin's expression was pale, and she was paralyzed there in a daze without saying a word. Even if she had never killed Shuangbi, since the adultery had become a fact, she would not be able to argue with it. I can't wait to grind his teeth and suck blood.

Liu Juqi hated her very much. He vaguely guessed what was going on. After all, this woman couldn't bear the loneliness and that imperial doctor... This time, Zhang Luxin will definitely not be able to continue to be the princess, Xuan Yi Yu was also relieved.

"Zhang Luxin, I think your father has made great achievements in government and was a clean official. I will give you a chance to explain yourself." Emperor Feng Lan put down the teacup heavily.

Zhang Luxin's mind wandered a few times, and it would not be good for her not to explain clearly now, so she murmured, "That man is Shang Sheng from the Imperial Hospital, who treated Erchen's face before..."

At this moment, the guard who went to search the house also came back, and handed over a stack of flower notes hidden at the bottom of the makeup box. Inside were all love poems. Although they were not signed, they were clearly written by a man.

Emperor Fenglan's face became more and more difficult to look at. Shang Sheng came in not long after, looked at Zhang Luxin who was kneeling on the ground and weeping inexplicably, and said respectfully, "My minister Shang Sheng, long live my emperor, long live .”

Xuan Yixi glanced at Shang Sheng lightly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, Xuan Yichen saw it, but just stood silently without saying a word.

"Shang Sheng, is it possible that you cheated on the Crown Princess to mess up the palace?"

"My minister is terrified!" Shang Sheng said in astonishment, "My minister only helped the princess look at the wounds on her face a few times, and every time he kept the ceremony, the prince's maid, Shuangbi, was also watching, she was very innocent."

"Shang Sheng, you coward!" Zhang Luxin was terribly annoyed when she heard him write it cleanly, "You obviously made those poems for me, why don't you recognize them now!"

"Shang Sheng, Shuang Bi is dead, how can you testify for me?" Emperor Feng Lan threw the stack of flower notes in front of Shang Sheng, "You have to recognize it before you speak, I don't want to hear any prevarication."

Shang Sheng picked them up one by one and flipped through them, then burst out laughing, took out his medicine booklet and presented it, "Your Majesty, you can compare it, this is not the handwriting of a humble official at all... I don't know why the Crown Princess said yes My humble minister, maybe it's just to help that adulterer escape."

"Shang Sheng, you are lying!" Zhang Luxin burst into tears, "You have a red mole on your right shoulder, and you are left-handed, aren't you?!"

Shang Sheng smiled lightly, "This is even more nonsense... Your majesty can go to the imperial hospital and ask, where did the humble minister get this problem of being left-handed." As he spoke, he also widened his clothes to expose his right shoulder, where it was smooth and fair, and there was nothing wrong with it. There is no red mole that Zhang Luxin mentioned.

"It's none of your business, let's go down." Emperor Feng Lan was thoughtful, this Shang Sheng was too considerate, it seemed that no matter what Zhang Luxin said, he could handle it freely, such courage and courage were put on an imperial doctor. A little too much.

"Shang Sheng! Shang Sheng, you are not human—" Zhang Luxin was enlightened, and then realized that she had been plotted against by someone. Shang Sheng had deliberately approached her from the beginning, but now she couldn't tell her adulterer, and Shuang Bi died again. I can only bear the blame alone!What a ruthless and delicate mind!

"The matter has come to this, are you still unwilling to tell who the other party is?" Emperor Feng Lan asked.

"Father... Your Majesty, it's really Shang Sheng, I dare not hide it!" Zhang Luxin struggled to explain, but no one would believe her words, only thinking that she was a ghost obsessed with her heart, and she was determined to help the adulterer hide her identity, The matter of adultery was a foregone conclusion, Emperor Feng Lan ordered Zhang Luxin to be sent to the cold palace first, and then deal with it later.

After some confusion, Emperor Feng Lan stood up tiredly rubbing his forehead, Xuan Yixi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I will send my father back."

"No need, you're no less "laborious" than me today, just take care of yourself." Emperor Feng Lan looked at Xuan Yixi fiercely, Xuan Yixi lowered his head and dared not argue, "Forget about Zhang's business, let's go Don't mess around again."

"...Yes, my son knows."

When Emperor Feng Lan and Xuan Yixi had left, Xuan Yichen sent Xiao Luan away, and went for a walk in the garden with Liu Juqi. The more Liu Juqi thought about what happened just now, the more he felt something was wrong. Everything was so logical, as if It was... exactly as planned.

"Why, don't you hate the princess, aren't you happy that she's gone?" Xuan Yichen pinched off the fallen flowers on his shoulders, and tenderly stroked Liu Juqi's cheeks.

"That's not true. I'm very happy in my heart, but I always feel that things don't seem to be simple... That Shang Sheng is especially strange. I saw him a few times before talking and laughing with the princess, but today he came here and looked at him coldly. The princess is not familiar at all."

"Little idiot, can't you see through such a simple scheme?" Xuan Yichen said, "Shang Sheng has been Xuan Yixi's person from the very beginning. Drop Zhang Luxin."

Liu Juqi suddenly realized, no wonder Emperor Fenglan said so strangely before he left, "Since the emperor knows, why is Zhang Luxin still being wronged?"

"It's hard to say I'm wronged. After all, it's true to have an affair." Xuan Yichen sighed. Turn a blind eye to things, Zhang Luxin is arrogant and domineering, and it will be a matter of time before she is deposed."

"The imperial palace is really scary." Liu Juqi murmured, and was suddenly hugged by Xuan Yichen, "Don't be afraid, Liu Er, I will never let you suffer any grievances in one day."

Liu Juqi's heart became hot, he hugged Xuan Yichen back, and heaved a long breath, no matter whether he was plotted against or not, Zhang Luxin would not be taken advantage of by others if she kept herself clean. , being a victim of other people's struggles for no reason, even if there is only a few encounters, Liu Juqi can't help feeling sympathetic, this is the reality - sacrificing others to protect oneself, in order to achieve the goal, no matter how dirty the means can be used - hearty For example, Xuan Yixi also harms people's delicate thoughts, let alone this extremely intelligent man who is hugging her man at the moment...

"Xuan Yichen, promise me, don't disregard human life. Xuan Yixi's actions...I don't like it."

"If it wasn't a last resort, I would definitely not." Xuan Yichen didn't say death, leaving half a way out, Liu Juqi felt regretful in his heart, but he could also understand him.
