A cold dream is not a dream come true

When I rushed back to Prince Xi's mansion, the mansion was already surrounded by the empress' guards.I showed my waist card and entered the gate of the mansion, rushed into the house, and immediately saw Prince Xi and Concubine Li kneeling in front of the emperor.At this moment, Concubine Li's clothes were disheveled and her hair was disheveled.She folded her arms around her chest, her face was full of tears, and she had a pitiful expression on her face.Prince Xi was expressionless, staring at the emperor coldly.

The empress turned her back to me, and I couldn't see her expression.But I can guess that she was very angry.

"Prince Bold Xi!" the empress roared, and the other people in the room knelt down and kowtowed in fright, and I quickly knelt down too.

"Emperor..." Concubine Li clutched her clothes tightly with both hands, crying in a low voice, "The concubine was only ordered to visit Prince Xi, who knows... woo woo woo... Emperor, you need to find out the truth... ..."

I knelt opposite Concubine Li, and I could see Concubine Li's expression clearly.There was a little smugness in her eyes, and there was no sign of being wronged at all. It seemed that those so-called "truths" were all false.

Meng Xun actually used this trick to provoke Prince Xi and the Empress, I felt a cold sweat in my heart.It seems that this time Prince Xi is really doomed.

I was on my knees, quickly running through the worst possible outcome and the best solution in my mind.But what happened in the past few days was too disturbing, and I couldn't think about anything other than tears and sadness.

"Prince Xi, what do you want to say?" the empress asked sharply.

Prince Xi didn't look up, and replied coldly: "No."

I looked at Prince Xi in astonishment, and kept shouting in my heart: Prince Xi, why did you say no?Quickly argue with the emperor, you say you were wronged, you were set in a trap by Concubine Li!You don't touch women other than me, do you?Even if something happened between you and dimple, I won't blame you, but you can't admit it in front of the emperor, Concubine Li is the emperor's favorite concubine, if you touch the emperor's woman, you will die !

But Prince Xi couldn't hear my heart, so she said lightly: "That's it."

"Okay, Su Luobing!" The female emperor pointed at Prince Xi and yelled, "Drag it out and chop it up!"

Beheaded?When I heard this, my mind went blank.I almost forgot what fear is, and immediately screamed and rushed to the emperor's feet and shouted loudly: "The emperor has mercy, the emperor is merciful, please don't kill Prince Xi, Prince Xi is your own sister, please Let her live!"

The empress was taken aback by my sudden appearance, she looked down at me blankly on the ground, and then resumed her frightening expression: "Prince Xi's mansion is full of robbers!"

"No! The emperor is merciful!"

"The emperor, please forgive me..."

Hearing the word "slash all the families", the maids and servants of Prince Xi's mansion burst into tears.Jun'er and several younger maids all fainted when they heard this.I could only sneer and let go of the empress' legs, and knelt aside.Now, "death" is the best ending the emperor gave me and Prince Xi, because we will die together.But it's a pity for my daughter Wanxia, ​​she is not yet two years old, and she will be reunited with her biological parents.

"Thank you Lord Long En." Prince Xi kowtowed to thank him.

I also followed Prince Xi's example and kowtowed with a smile: "Thank you, the emperor for your kindness."

After thanking the emperor, the whole room fell into silence.The female emperor's anger still persisted, Concubine Li saw the opportunity and crawled to the emperor's side, grabbed the corner of the emperor's clothes and shook them, showing innocent eyes.

The empress squinted her eyes at the people below her, but said nothing.

"Auntie Emperor!" At this moment, a hurried shout suddenly sounded outside the door, and then Su Zimo broke in.I saw her kneeling in front of the emperor respectfully, and solemnly said to the emperor: "Please forgive me, Aunt the Emperor!"

This matter had nothing to do with Su Zimo, but she suddenly pleaded for mercy, and the emperor would definitely take his anger out on her.Sure enough, as I expected, the empress frowned and said sharply, "Zimo, don't get involved in this matter!"

"Auntie of the Emperor," Su Zimo kowtowed again, "Although Zimo doesn't understand government affairs, Zimo knows what Qigu is like, and Qigu will never betray the Emperor's aunt!"

The emperor sneered, and asked sharply: "What kind of person? I naturally know what kind of person Prince Xi is. I already knew about Prince Xi's secret investigation of Muhai City and Xifeng County. Then how to explain her secret collusion with the King of the Great Southern Kingdom and the Crown Prince of the Eastern Zhu Kingdom?"

When did Prince Hee collude with King Da Nan Guo and Prince Dong Joo?Could it be that the empress knew about our escape?Could it be that we really have the emperor's eyeliner around us?

Concubine Li, who was still crying just now, has recovered her noble status.She snuggled into the emperor's arms and said softly: "The emperor calm down, what happened to the concubine, your dragon body is more important..."

The empress wanted to get angry at Su Zimo, but when she saw Concubine Li's charming appearance, she immediately felt better: "As the king of a country, it is only natural for me to punish a subject. Concubine Li, don't worry about me. body."

Concubine Li smiled, stretched out her hands and straightened the emperor's collar and said, "Since the emperor you want to punish is a courtier, and this Princess Xi is not a courtier, the emperor must not hurt innocent people."

Now I was kneeling on the ground, and I couldn't help being surprised to hear Concubine Li pleading for me at the risk of being punished.But in addition to being surprised, I was deeply moved.But I don't thank her at all, because she is my biological sister.

The emperor frowned and thought for a moment, then finally sighed and said: "Forget it, since Concubine Li has spoken, then Shenshi will seize the prison and remove Prince Xi from the throne today. The eighth day of the first lunar month in the sixth year of Yong'an will be distributed to the frontier. The punishment for others Delay execution."

"Thank you Lord Long En." Prince Xi kowtowed immediately.The other maids and servants in the room also knelt down and kowtowed. Seeing that the emperor spared Prince Xi's death penalty, I was overjoyed and knelt down to express my gratitude.

After the empress finished speaking, she coughed again and again, it seemed that her body couldn't hold on anymore.Concubine Li beat the emperor's back in a panic, and at the same time asked the guards to help the emperor back to the palace.

I was relieved when all the guards in the house left.I looked at Su Zimo, who was still in shock, and quickly helped her up, thanking her: "Thank you, Sir, I really don't know how to repay you this time..."

Su Zimo stood up, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said with self-reproach: "I didn't do anything to help, Qigu still has to distribute Xinfan, and even your life was saved by Concubine Li. It's useless!"

I shook my head to comfort Su Zimo and said, "Don't blame yourself, son, you have done your best."

I looked back at Prince Xi, she was still kneeling on the ground and did not get up.In less than half an hour, Shen Shi was coming, I walked over with some despair, and stretched out my hand to hold her.Prince Xi raised his head and did not speak, allowing me to hold her.

"My lord, I want to accompany you to Xinfan." I said firmly.

Prince Xi shook his head and said coldly, "No."

I didn't expect that Prince Xi would refuse my request.Originally, I planned to live and die with Prince Xi, since the emperor spared her the death penalty, of course I have to bear the living penalty with her.

"Why?" I asked, we have already experienced fleeing together, and I have already disregarded life and death, why did she not agree with me going to Xinfan with her?

"Take good care of Wanxia." She said softly.

"No, I can't live without you." I almost cried, "It only takes ten years to be distributed to the frontier, and I want to be with you!"

"No." She said firmly, "Remarry and take good care of Wanxia."

Not only did they not allow me to go to Xinfan, but they also asked me to remarry. I shook my head desperately, "I will wait for you to come back!"

Prince Xi shook his head, "Don't wait for me, I won't come back."

What is "I can't come back"?I looked at Prince Xi in disbelief, shook my head and said, "What do you mean?"

"Chuhan, live well." Prince Xi slowly stretched out his hand and stroked my face, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Seeing Prince Hee's smile brought tears to my eyes instantly.I grabbed Prince Xi's hand and cried: "Don't go, don't leave me alone, don't go..."

Prince Xi didn't say anything, she hugged me slowly and patted my back gently.

At this moment, the father-in-law's decree came from outside the door: "The application time has come, arrest the guilty minister Su Luobing!"

My spirit collapsed in an instant, and I stood up crying and howling, raised a bench at random and blocked the door.But how can my weak body resist the strength of the palace guards? With a little force, the wooden door of the room was kicked open, and they flew out together with the bench.

I lay on the ground, my abdomen was in severe pain from being hit by the bench, I only felt my throat was hot and burning, I coughed hard, only felt a pungent smell in my mouth, and vomited a mouthful of blood.

"Chuhan!" Su Zimo anxiously ran over to help me up, and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth for me.Enduring the pain, I got up and saw two guards rushed into the room and quickly handcuffed Prince Xi's hands. A guard behind pushed Prince Xi hard, and Prince Xi staggered forward. Almost fell.Another guard pulled the chain in front and dragged Prince Xi out of the room.

"Luo Bing!" I cried and crawled out of the house, only to see the palace courtyard surrounded by guards.

I stood up reluctantly, wanting to be imprisoned with Prince Xi, but the guards swarmed up and stopped me: "The emperor has ordered that everyone in Prince Xi's mansion must not leave the palace for half a step, otherwise they will be executed." !"

Well, you empress, you actually used this trick to separate me from Prince Xi.I pushed the guards vigorously, but they didn't move at all. I could only watch helplessly as Prince Xi was carried out of the palace by the guards, but I couldn't do anything.

My voice is hoarse from crying, I just feel extremely difficult to breathe, the things in front of me start to become double shadows, I don't seem to know who I am anymore.When I was about to lose consciousness, Prince Xi suddenly turned his head and said firmly to me: "Live well."

Live well.This was the last word I heard, and then, I "plopped" and fainted on the ground.
