rich little concubine

A woman's exclamation and a man's scream sounded in the private room. Hearing this sound, those who passed by did not dare to go in to persuade them, but walked faster instead.

Gu Tao beat him up hard, the things he sent were probably already in the hands of the other party, he left the restaurant and asked the waiting boy to contact Zhang Zhiyuan's people.

Although it's an afterthought, it's better to know than not to know. I don't know if what Fu Qu said after drinking just now is true or not. I was annoyed for a while, so I didn't ask any more questions.

In the imperial city, the Queen's Palace has been guarded by the Forbidden Legion. On the surface, they are thinking about their mistakes in the palace behind closed doors, but in fact they are under strict supervision and disguised as house arrest.

The subordinate who the queen ordered to do things before bribed a guard and sneaked into the palace pretending to be an imperial army.

The originally bustling palace is now only served by the queen's personal servant girl, and there is no one else. Once she loses her power, the family is left in the cold, that's how it is.

"How is the investigation?" The queen was sitting in the side hall, with only a simple bun, her face was haggard, and she finally had the old look she should have at this age, holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand.

Originally, she didn't believe in these things, she only believed in the power she should have in her hands, but now she was somewhat helpless and somewhat understood the state of mind of the man who eats vegetarian food and recites Buddhism.

The investigators knelt down below, and respectfully reported the news they had inquired over the past few days.

"Really?" The straight back went limp, barely supported by this chair.

"The subordinates have checked, and it is indeed the case."

There was no warning about the eldest prince being imprisoned. The emperor ordered a siege, and rumors began to spread in the city that day, as if it was to pave the way for this arrest.

Whether it was Zhang Liao, who was arresting people, or Lin Ting, an official who was interrogating, they acted vigorously and vigorously, and they did not form cliques in private. They presumably were the emperor's confidantes, so they would not stand in line with the princes' reserve position.

That day, as soon as the dragon robe was found, the eldest prince was taken away. Zhang Liao didn't even ask about those who ordered it. According to common sense, there should be a few people to correct him, and the emperor didn't care at all. He didn't intend to summon the eldest prince, and threw him to the Ministry of Punishment with one sentence.

Arresting, imprisoning, refusal to meet, the queen's loss of power, all things are analyzed in a coherent manner, and smart people can guess who did it. If the emperor wants to kill someone, who will stand up and be the first bird in a foolish way.

Those who had secretly supported the eldest prince wished they could get rid of them immediately. The officials the queen asked them to contact all had an attitude of avoiding them.

The queen closed her eyes, the beads in her hand broke and rolled all over the ground.

But Mo Ling is going to kill her son himself 1

In the end, after thousands of calculations and painstaking efforts to conceal it, he finally got a dead word, but it happened too suddenly, but it was also a strange thing.

"Who did my son meet before that day?" The closed eyes opened again, but there was peace amidst the grief.

"It's all the ones I'm used to in daily life, and there's nothing wrong with it."

"Okay, you go down."

The Empress looked gloomy, and she was still sitting in the chair, closing her eyes to rest her mind. After a while, the servant girl realized that the Empress was not asleep, but passed out. This was unbearable grief and excessive worry.

The time given by the emperor to Lin Ting is limited, today is the deadline, Lin Ting really did not expect that the Eldest Prince's bones are so hard, and he still refuses to let go after so many days.

Under the severe torture, Ran Yanjue had broken several ribs, and the bones of his hand were also seriously damaged. A few days ago, he would shout a few words of grievance, but now he can't pry his mouth open.

Although it is dead support, but in the end still have to support it.

Lin Ting sent everyone out, leaving him alone with Ran Yanjue.

"Eldest Prince, you will die in the end, why should you suffer so much?"

Ran Yanjue kept silent, but looked at the other party with an unusually vicious look in his eyes, and his eyes were even more vicious under the weak breath. Lin Ting's expression was not good, and he was just obeying orders.

"Eldest Prince, I know what you are waiting for, but it is a pity that your mother is imprisoned now, and General Nangong is too far away to save the near fire, and those cronies you once wooed are now completely abandoned by you. can save you?"

"I...I don't believe..."

"If you don't believe it, you have to believe it. Do you think why the Forbidden Army is guarding the outside of the Ministry of Punishment so that no one can get close to you?" Lin Ting continued to add fire, his meaning was already obvious.

Although he works for the emperor, he can directly give the eldest prince a good time, but after all, there are the empress and Nangong Hu behind the eldest prince. Therefore, it is best for the eldest prince to confess himself. After finishing the errand, his hands will not be stained with blood. .

Ran Yanjue's eyes flickered slightly, even though he had already guessed it, but the audience confirmed it again, and his heart was even more ashamed.

"Besides...the emperor is going to kill you, who can save you?" Lin Ting slowly knelt down and whispered in the ear of the other party, speaking clearly, except for the last hope of the eldest prince for being rescued. straw.

Seeing the look in the eldest prince's eyes gradually dimming, Lin Ting knew that this matter could be settled today, so he was not in a hurry and quietly waited for the elder prince's reply.

After a long time, a cool voice sounded: "I can make a bet, but I am unwilling to die. Can Master Lin do something for me?"

Lin Ting frowned, obviously thinking whether it was worth it to do things for a dying person.

"Lord Lin, don't worry, this matter is not against the emperor's will, and will not embarrass you, just bring me a word."

"it is good."

The eldest prince committed the heinous crime of treason, and the evidence is conclusive, and he has confessed to the charge. As soon as Lin Ting reports back, the emperor can order the execution ground to behead him, and announce to the world that the eldest prince's status will be demoted to a commoner, and the ancestral hall will be removed.

On the day of the beheading, the common people gathered to watch. Once the royal prince was in trouble, he was worse than ordinary people. His head fell to the ground, wrapped in a straw mat, and was carried by the guards to a mass grave outside the city for burial.

The letter of advice that Nangong Hu sent people to the city just sent was one step too late. In fact, this step was superfluous.

It is a foregone conclusion that the emperor wants the eldest prince to die.

This incident caused an uproar among the people in the imperial city. After all, the eldest prince was usually gentle and kind, and treated the people well.

However, the matter has gradually calmed down in a few days, because someone has suppressed it secretly, no one dared to mention the death of the eldest prince, and if they gossip after dinner, they will be questioned.

The pros and cons of the current situation, as well as the death of the eldest prince, Ji Ziyang has sent someone to send the news, but Mofeng also fully knows that it is the prince of a country, and the person who is most capable of taking over the position of the prince has died. The spies from other countries who were lurking in the Ruitian Dynasty also sent news to return home.

Although there are many small countries around the mainland, all of them look up to the Ruitian Dynasty and let it be called the emperor, but they can only be called the lord of the country, but who will be willing to submit wholeheartedly, they are also paying close attention to every move of the Ruitian Dynasty.

The death of the eldest prince must have been caused by civil strife. They were optimistic about the show, so they secretly instigated the surrounding barbarians to harass the Ruitian border. Even if the foundation of the emperor cannot be touched, it is good to add some obstacles to him.

However, this was just in line with Mo Feng's intention, and it would not be abrupt to disturb Jialin Pass.

After marching for several days, the army had already left the border of Canglan. Because of sufficient food and grass, many suffering and hungry people were recruited along the way to join the army.It even directly suppressed many green forest parties, and expanded the army while doing so, killing two birds with one stone.

At sunset, the army set up camp on the spot, Yijing lifted the curtain of the main tent and came in: "My lord, I will pass through Jialin Pass in a few days, does my lord have other arrangements?"

The man standing with his hands behind his back slowly turned his head, and looked at Yijing with a smile: "Don't ask, your prince has escaped." This suit of armor is heroic, against the opponent's monstrous Wushuang face, it does not violate the harmony.

"Where... is the prince? And... the prince, why are you here?" Yijing looked around, and there was no other person in the tent except Fu Cangruo and him. He had seen the prince just now when he was marching. Woolen cloth.

"I see that your lord is about to miss him, and he can't wait to go to the imperial city first. Nuo, this is for you and the generals."

Fu Cangruo threw a scroll to him, on which were some things arranged by Ran Mofeng, all of which were comprehensive, without any flaws, and sat down leisurely on the side: "As for me, I naturally want to stir up the muddy waters." gone."

The corners of Yijing's mouth twitched: "Prince...you are so elegant."

A cunning light flashed in Fu Cangruo's bewitching eyes, he had already found out where the person he was looking for was, so, could he not follow Ran Mofeng back to Ruitian Dynasty.

But he wasn't in a hurry, so he let the other party bounce around for a few more days, and the prey had to be caught slowly to be fun.

Zhenbei Wangfu.

However, Mo Feng rushed back all the way, and only quietly entered the mansion after nightfall. Although the eldest prince's dead Ji Ziyang was cleverly calculated and there was nothing wrong on the surface, he was still a little worried, and as soon as he got the news, he made up his mind Check back.

Ji Ziyang's safety has become his greatest weakness.

However, when Mo Feng returned to the mansion, he would naturally alarm Xuehe, and he also intended to let him know.

As soon as he entered the palace, Xuehe sent people to secretly investigate around the palace, and he was relieved after confirming that no one was following or spying secretly.

The courtyard was dark, Ah Wu and Ah Liu took turns guarding the door of Ji Ziyang's house, when Ah Wu saw the figure of the prince, he wanted to kneel down in surprise, but was blocked by Ran Mo, and said softly: "Don't disturb me!" Let the princess rest."

"Yes," Ah Wu replied with a very low voice.

However, Mo Feng was about to push the door open, Ah Wu suddenly thought of something, and boldly stretched out his hand to block it, and said cautiously: "My lord, why don't you go in and let me know?" It is indeed inappropriate for a subordinate of his to enter the princess's room, but...he is thinking of the prince's jealousy.

However, Mo Feng's eyes were extremely dangerous, and he dared not speak for a moment.

Ji Ziyang's thin quilt has already been replaced by a thick quilt. When the door was pushed open, a gust of cold wind came in, and a small face shrank back into the quilt, as if the whole A person is wrapped into a cocoon.

The tall figure sat down by the bed, looking at the sleeping person tenderly with loving eyes, but the quilt behind the sleeping person suddenly raised a piece, this is... there is another person sleeping in the bed?The man's gaze was instantly icy cold!
