HBWnovel Chapter 20 Who Are You?
Chapter 20 Who Are You?
The Chamber of Internal Affairs has great authority, and most of the eunuchs and maids in the palace and some of the imperial troops are under the jurisdiction of the Chamber of Internal Affairs.
Therefore, there is a private prison in the inner court, which is called incompatibility, and detains those who are intolerant in the inner court.
In the middle of the night, Jian Lanyuan, who is the king of Yuanning, came to the cell alone. The guard at the door saw that the most powerful master in front of the emperor was coming. Without a word of nonsense, he quickly opened the door and let the prince in.
Jian Lanyuan ordered the guards to stand guard outside, and alone, holding a torch, she came to the prison where Qinglu was being held.
Qinglu was tied to a stake, and in order to prevent her from committing suicide, a ball of sackcloth was stuffed into her mouth.But judging by her appearance, Chen Xingning didn't make things difficult for her, at least she looked respectable.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Qinglu slightly opened her eyes, and when she saw someone coming, her eyes changed.
Just seeing the change in her eyes, Jian Lanyuan knew that Qinglu was familiar with the original owner.He opened the cell door and walked in.
Shoes stepped on the withered grass, making a soft rustling sound, echoing in the dark and silent cell.
"The medicine...why is it so heavy?" This is the safest way to ask questions that he has thought about along the way.
As he said that, he took off the sackcloth stuffed into Qinglu's mouth, Qinglu pursed her lips fiercely, and said with a sneer, "You said that I was too cruel, what's so strange about that?"
This sentence has a different meaning, a sour tone.
Jian Lanyuan sighed in response to her, but did not speak.
Seeing him like this, Qinglu was even more annoyed, and said in a very low voice: "You won't really be tempted by that foolish king, right? It's in our plan to help you separate the emperor and queen. Now I will help you get rid of her, and you will come back Come to Xingshi to inquire about crimes?"
Jian Lanyuan's heart seemed to be hit by a boulder. This idea had flashed in his mind, and it wasn't until this moment that it was confirmed that he felt a sudden depression in his heart—the struggle for power and position that killed people. Seeing it on novel TV, after all, it is different from what happened to me.
Even if he is not the king of Yuanning, let alone the one who started it, he still can't let go of it for a while.The girl in front of her was only in her teens, she was in her prime, and she was supposed to bloom to her heart's content, but the flowers had already been quenched by the venom.
The ruthlessness of a person's heart can never be judged simply by age.
After calming down, Jian Lanyuan said: "Except for this one, there is the next one. The back position is turbulent, the front is in chaos, and the whole body is involved. Why do you want to involve innocent people?"
After he finished speaking, Qinglu looked at him, dazed, with strangeness in his eyes, and finally burst into tears, and said after a while: "You have the government, the world, and the innocent queen in your heart, but... I will do it for you." After so much, you are about to die, and you will never have me in your heart...you can go."
Qinglu stabbing the queen to death was stupid, because of the limitation of her vision, and also because of her wrong love for the prince at a young age.It's a pity that neither the former King Yuanning nor the current one has any interest in her.
After massacring the queen, Qinglu could not live, and she would not die.According to the laws of the Yao Kingdom, she should be sentenced to 720 knives and scraped, which Jian Lanyuan couldn't bear.
Finally, he didn't put the sackcloth back into her mouth again.
Seeing someone die by scraping in the history books and knowing that the person in front of you is about to die by this punishment are two different things after all.
That night, the prince left the palace and returned to the palace in a state of confusion.Along the way, he tried his best to argue the two sides of this matter, until he finished grooming, he didn't say a word.
The jade man has been waiting on the sidelines.
"Master," Yuren finally couldn't stand it anymore, "Do you want to save Qinglu?"
Jian Lanyuan shook her head.
"You..." The chatter stopped, and the jade man stood in front of the prince, staring at his face.
No matter how confused Jian Lanyuan was, he would be able to see her back to her senses, and said: "This king wants to be quiet for a while, you can go and rest."
But the jade man didn't leave, his knees softened, and he knelt in front of him, still looking at him without speaking.
"What is this for?"
The jade man frowned, and kowtowed on the ground. Jian Lanyuan didn't know why, and just wanted to help him, but the young man suddenly burst into flames, and his right palm swept towards the prince's temple like a spring breeze sweeping a willow branch.
Jian Lanyuan was shocked, her body reacted before her mind, she stood up and gambled, dodged the jade man's palm, turned around and stood still, before she could say anything, the jade man's second move came, and she pointed at the prince's neck with both fingers place.
It was too fast to see how the young man's gestures changed.
In a blink of an eye, his fingertips had already touched the prince's collar, Jian Lanyuan turned her head, and the jade man's two fingers almost brushed against the skin of his neck, and the wind brought a biting coolness.
This kid didn't hold back at all, he made more than twenty moves in an instant, Jian Lanyuan naturally understood - the jade man doubted his identity!
He should have been suspicious on the way back to the capital from Beng'an County, and it finally exploded today.
If it is Yuanning Wang himself, his kung fu is probably higher than that of Yuren, but Jian Lanyuan's current ability is only [-]% to [-]% of the original owner's. He is a modern person, no matter how much he has learned fighting skills, he only learned moves. Compared with the extensive and profound Chinese martial arts inheritance, the method of breath adjustment alone is very different. It is very rare for him to realize [-]% to [-]% by himself. If no one guides him, it will be difficult to break through.
Seeing that the beauty was moving faster and faster, Jian Lanyuan's breath was already scattered.
If he doesn't move three more times, he will be restrained by the jade man, the jade man suddenly retreats, leaps a few feet away, and said coldly: "Who are you?"
The young man finally kept his hand. After all, he was young, and his mind was not as deep as that of an adult, but he felt that the man in front of him was not like the prince himself, but after getting along these days, he felt that he was upright and magnanimous.
In the current situation, no matter how ingenious Jian Lanyuan is, it will be difficult to recover. His past knowledge of the original owner is only limited to the narration in the past few words in the daytime, and the scrutiny he has made to the people around him in recent days.
Too many details are blank, nowhere to know, once questioned, they are all flaws.
Jian Lanyuan was not hypocritical, she simply took a gamble, and ignorantly penetrated into the body of this prince, wanting to survive in an unfamiliar land, walking alone was too difficult.
He looked at the jade man seriously, and said: "This body still belongs to your lord, but... I am indeed not him." The matter was too unbelievable, and he didn't know how to explain it to the jade man.
"Where's your lord?"
Jian Lanyuan shook her head.
The young man frowned and tilted his head to look at him. After a while, he walked up to him, said "offend", pulled his left arm, pushed up the sleeve, and exposed his arm. There was a scar on his elbow, which should be old. The color of the mottled scars on the skin has faded, but it can still be imagined that the injuries must have been serious.
Looking at the scar on the prince's elbow, the jade man frowned slightly, and a layer of sadness climbed up the brows of the young man. At this moment, he didn't know why, but he had already believed in Jian Lanyuan [-]% to [-]%.
This scar was caused when he first arrived at the palace, he violated the taboo of the old lady in the mansion, and was thrown over by her mouthful of boiling soup.At that time, he was still young, and he was almost scared to death. If King Yuanning didn't protect him in his arms, his face would be completely destroyed.
From then on, he made up his mind to repay the prince well.
Afterwards, when he waited for the prince to take a bath, he did not know how many times he secretly looked at the scar on his arm, until he closed his eyes, and he was able to describe the shape of the scar.
It is easy to fake a cut, but it is almost impossible to make two sets of scars the same for a burn.
Jian Lanyuan saw the decline of the young man, and said: "I don't want to be like this today, maybe I will find a way to go back in the future, and he will be able to come back."
Unexpectedly, the jade man suddenly smiled. There are many kinds of smiles. The smile on his face at this moment lacks the spirit of a young man, but it is full of the Zen of knowing destiny.
The jade man looked at the prince in front of him, and said: "He... If he can get out of the right and wrong nest, he will be fine elsewhere, and it will be fine if he doesn't come back."
When Jian Lanyuan heard it, she followed the words and asked, "Why do you say that?"
The jade man shook his head and said dully: "Since he came to Chaoyue City four years ago, he has changed. He has been planning something secretly, but he doesn't let me interfere, saying that the less I know, the better."
Unexpectedly, the original owner protected him so much.Jian Lanyuan raised her hand and patted the jade man's shoulder, and said with a faint smile, "He protects you, and you are also very open-minded."
The young man raised his head slightly and looked at Jian Lanyuan, "Your temperament is more like the prince four years ago."
Jian Lanyuan smiled wryly, now that he was bearing the identity of King Yuanning, and even holding his script, just now he was suddenly changed, and he couldn't tell whether he was Jian Lanyuan or King Yuanning in a daze.
After being disturbed by the jade man, the sullenness in his heart gradually dissipated.
He asked the jade man what made him sure that he was not the king of Yuanning. After thinking about it for a long time, the jade man said: "Since the prince came to Chaoyue City, there has always been a ruthless spirit in his bones." , but you don't."
Maybe the original owner won't be bored all night because of the empress.
With a calm mind, Jian Lanyuan secretly laughed at herself, she was lost in the authority just now.If the emperor had brains, he would not have made the queen's assassination public, so even if Qing Lu paid her life, she would not have died of torture.
Qinglu may have seen through this point a long time ago. On the second day, there was no news of her committing suicide in the middle of the night.
On the contrary, in the afternoon, Chen Xingning's booklet was presented to the emperor's imperial book case. The queen's servant girl, Qinglu, confessed that she had committed quarrels with the queen, and committed four crimes:
First, spied on the news in the army and passed it on to the queen, causing her to be restless, miscarried, and then instigated the queen to fake pregnancy and compete for favor;
Second, spread the goodwill between the emperor and Yuanning Wang Longyang, instigate discord between the emperor and the empress, causing the empress to become depressed and seriously ill;
Third, when the queen was sick, she first pretended to be a ghost in the imperial garden, trying to blame the queen, and then poisoned the eunuch Xiaoji in the palace, slandering the queen to go crazy and hurt others;
Fourth, stabbing the queen to death.
During the day, I took the notebook and thought for a long time.Apart from a few serving eunuchs, he was the only one in the hall, which seemed extremely empty.
He always thought that the person who spread the truth about the queen's fake pregnancy to fight for favor in the palace was King Yuanning, but he didn't expect to be someone close to the queen...
It was his fault.
I haven't seen him since this morning, Bu Ge said, the prince went out of the palace overnight and returned to the mansion last night, and he hasn't entered the palace today.
This person has always been around in the palace, why did he suddenly hide in the palace, and he didn't even say anything?
This is how people are. Some people are attentive all day long, and suddenly one day they feel a little bit cold, which is very obvious, and their hearts are full of confusion, as if there is a small hand scratching their hearts.
What's more, that man looks the same as Dr. Jane.
"Would you like... the slave Prince Xuan to enter the palace immediately?" Bu Ge's eyesight has always been strong.He could tell that the emperor had been thinking about King Yuanning since he woke up in the morning.
"No need, I will go out of the palace and go to the prince's mansion."
Bu Ge agreed, and said in his heart: It's always been the prince who chased the emperor to be courteous, but now the prince's trick of playing hard to get is done?The empress is dead, the emperor is calm on the surface, and he must feel uncomfortable in his heart. The prince picked such a time to start, but it is really...
An expert who moves with the camera.
