my love

Chapter 39


Zhu Minzhi kowtowed again and again, and said with tears: "Ten years ago, His Highness the Sixth Prince passed away, and Concubine Xian was given a three-foot white silk by His Majesty. His Highness must have thought that His Highness Six fell into the water by accident, and that the Empress and the Crown Prince were just helping to frame you. But servant girl, I saw with my own eyes that His Highness the Sixth Highness was indeed murdered by the queen!"

Li Yuanyu was taken aback, and stood up abruptly: "What did you say?"

"The Empress is in charge of the Sixth Palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in charge of the court, and the slaves are greedy for life. They never dare to tell anyone about this. Ten years ago, the emperor angered the Concubine De for not taking good care of the Sixth Highness. The empress is in Yinqiu Palace to fend for herself. The last time Miss Mu left the palace and asked her servants to take care of Yinqiu Palace. Seeing the miserable appearance of Empress De, the servants are really not at peace every day. They are condemned by conscience. Come to His Royal Highness King Su."

Li Yuanyu stabilized his mind, and hissed: "You tell the whole story in detail, and there must be no half a lie."

"Your Majesty dare not lie to Your Highness. Your Highness also knows that ten years ago, this servant was working beside the Empress. The Empress knew that you loved to go to the lotus pond to play with His Highness Sixth. As for you, that day in the lotus pond, the servants and servants saw His Highness the Sixth Prince drowning with their own eyes, but they did not dare to rescue him. The empress was cruel, jealous that the Sixth Prince was favored by His Majesty, and fearing that you would threaten the position of the Crown Prince, she did not hesitate to hurt the Sixth Highness’s life , Get rid of the two princes in one fell swoop. Poor Concubine Xian actually confessed the crime of mutilating the emperor’s heir in order to save His Highness. Your Highness, slaves deserve to die! The slaves are really afraid. Now that King Wenyang is plotting rebellion, he is about to attack the palace. , I am afraid that if I don’t say anything today, I will never have another chance. Your Highness, please give this servant a death penalty.”

"This king asks you, is Brother Da Huang involved in this matter?"

Zhu Minzhi replied tremblingly: "Since entering the East Palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has rarely come to the Queen's Yu Ning Palace except to say hello, but on the day of the accident, His Highness the Crown Prince was in the Yu Ning Palace all day long!"

Li Yuanyu's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "If you tell half a lie, you will be punished."

"Nurse Wang is still serving the Empress. Your Highness will find out when you check." Zhu Minzhi kowtowed respectfully and firmly.

Li Yuanyu sat slumped in the chair, everything that happened recently made him very dazed and at a loss. He also hated the queen before, hated her for using Yuan Min's death to plant himself and force his mother to death, but the truth was actually more important than what he knew Much more cruel, Yuan Min is such a lovely child, he is well-behaved and docile, everyone loves him, what's wrong with him?To say it wrong is to be born in the emperor's family by mistake.

Li Yuanyu smiled sadly, the most ruthless emperor's family.

King Xin 18 years ago, Yuan Min ten years ago, whose turn is it now?

Zhu Minzhi still knelt on the ground respectfully, Li Yuanyu waved his hand feebly, and said, "Eunuch Zhu, it's good that you know about this matter, you should step back first."

"Yes, I will take my leave." Zhu Minzhi performed the farewell ceremony and exited the hall. The red clouds in the sky were like fire, and there seemed to be the sound of wind and thunder rolling.

A faint sneer floated on the corner of the mouth of the chief steward, "His Royal Highness Su, what will you do now? I wish you good luck, servant girl."

The bleak and lonely autumn wind blows the dilapidated dead trees and weeds of Yinqiu Palace, and the dilapidated courtyard that has not been repaired for a long time has been completely forgotten by this golden tile and vermilion imperial city.

Li Yuanyu walked in slowly, and the fallen leaves rubbed against the soles of his feet, making a rustling sound. Two court ladies were sitting in the courtyard embroidering colorful butterfly sachets, and they both raised their heads when they heard the footsteps, slightly startled.

Yinqiu Palace had never been visited by outsiders, let alone a man, even though he knew the other party was a noble person, he had to bow down and salute, and asked politely, "I don't know why the nobleman came to Yinqiu Palace?"

Li Yuanyu glanced roughly at the Yinqiu Palace with his eyes, and said, "Li Yuanyu, the fifth son of the emperor, greet the concubine De."

Yurong and Xiaoshuang have never seen such a noble person before, and they were shocked when they learned that the person was the prince, and almost collapsed. In shock, they hurriedly knelt up and kowtowed, Yurong said in a trembling voice : "Your Highness, rest for a while, and wait for the slaves to report."

Just about to get up, they saw Concubine De came out of the hall slowly, she was wearing a plain shirt, her face was calm and clear, Yurong and Xiaoshuang were in a daze, they had never seen such Concubine De.

Concubine De signaled Yurong and Xiaoshuang to back down, stared at Li Yuanyu with misty eyes, and said slowly: "Yuan Yu, I haven't seen you in ten years, you have grown so big."

Li Yuanyu saluted, and said in a low voice: "Yuan Yu is useless, let the empress suffer!"

Concubine De's smile was a bit desolate: "I don't blame you, your father deliberately tortured me, if you plead for me, I'm afraid your situation today is more difficult than mine. You came to see me today, but you have unsolved doubts?"

"Yes, they all said that the empress does not distinguish between morning and night. Now it seems that the empress is clear-headed, so Yuan Yu is relieved. Today I want to ask the empress some old things. I hope the empress will forgive Yuan Yu for taking the liberty."

"I was really confused before. Fortunately, a few days ago, a little maid who looked very much like Yuan Min came to Yinqiu Palace. She was very cute. She was in the lotus pond that day, holding a lotus in her hand and smiling like Yuan Min. It was exactly the same when Min was picking lotus when he was young." A loving smile appeared on the lips of Concubine De: "Later, I gradually sobered up, but I just didn't want others to know, so I continued to pretend to be crazy, and that little girl named Yun Sheng was as innocent as a child. , there was no doubt at all, and since she was implicated in the death of the Northern Qi Prince, I have never seen her, and I was relieved to hear that King Wenyang treated her very well."

Mu Yunsheng was the one who hurt Li Yuanyu the most. When she mentioned her, he couldn't help but shook his head and smiled wryly: "She is always like this, letting others have feelings for her and then walking away. It's too self-willed and arrogant."

Concubine De smiled slightly, and said: "Since you came to ask me today, you must have a good idea."

Li Yuanyu said in a deep voice: "Yuan Yu wants to know all the truth, and even more wants to know whether the sixth emperor brother was killed by others. You know something from what your mother said, right?"

"Yes, Yuan Min did not just fall into the water accidentally as you thought. I remember the day when the accident happened, Yuan Min said that he lost to you in the cricket fight the night before, and he was going to you to find you to win it back. How could he run alone? To the lotus pond? It must be that he was on the way to find you, someone tricked him to the lotus pond. You and Yuan Min have had the best relationship since childhood. Concubine Xian is even more gentle and kind by nature. Even if she takes all the blame on herself, I also believe that the murderer is someone else."

Although Zhu Minzhi had already believed what Zhu Minzhi said, but at this moment Defei's confirmation still made him extremely angry. How could they do such a cruel thing to their flesh and blood relatives? listen.

"I know you won't be depraved all the time. If you want, the prince is definitely not your opponent. I just hope that you will have the opportunity to give him justice in the future because of the brotherhood you have with Yuan Min."

Concubine De's trust made Li Yuanyu extremely ashamed. For so many years, he didn't think about it, didn't go into it, and deceived himself that it was an accident.

He was afraid of touching the darkest part of human nature. He didn't want to believe that someone would personally hurt his siblings for the sake of power. Even if he was wronged, he thought it was because he was too aggressive. They just followed the trend.

But now he just felt that the former self was too ridiculous.

"Concubine De, please rest assured, Yuan Yu will seek justice for my concubine mother and sixth brother today!" Li Yuanyu's eyes suddenly revealed a murderous look, he retreated, turned around and strode out of Yinqiu Palace.

Concubine De panicked, and hurriedly shouted: "You must not be impulsive."

Li Yuanyu didn't turn his head, and walked away in a hurry.

In Yuning Palace, the empress paced back and forth restlessly. Although she was almost fifty years old, her hair was still black and thick, and her gold-studded emerald phoenix swayed and swayed with her hurried steps, charming and charming. And colorful.

It's just that the prestige that has been deliberately cultivated over the years cannot hide her anxiety at this moment.

Although the palace is heavy, she can still hear the sound of gold and ge outside the imperial city. She prays secretly, hoping that God will bless the prince to repel the rebels smoothly. After so many years, she has tried all kinds of tricks to keep her child's position as the heir apparent. But now, King Wenyang has rebelled against him, and it is unknown whether the imperial city can be kept.

Wang Momo's slightly angry voice came into the palace: "His Royal Highness Su, how could you trespass on Yuning Palace?" Immediately after the palace people screamed again and again, Wang Momo shouted in panic: "Come on, protect the queen!" Empress!"

Immediately there was a loud sound of swords clashing, and soon Li Yuanyu broke into Yuning Palace with a sword in one hand and Wang Momo in the other.

The guards who followed closely hesitated to come forward to take him, so they had to stand in front of the queen and prevent him from getting close to the queen.

Seeing Li Yuanyu's menacing approach, the queen yelled angrily: "Yuanyu, you trespassed on the queen's bedroom. Do you know that this is a capital crime?"

"Capital crime?" Li Yuanyu sneered: "This is not the first time you charged me with such a crime."

The queen's face was ashen, and she said: "If it wasn't for Bengong's mercy, do you think you can still live till now?"

Li Yuanyu laughed long and loudly: "If I hadn't been unknown all these years, you would have attacked me long ago, right? Empress Empress, have you forgotten how the sixth emperor brother and my concubine mother died?"

The queen was shocked, forced herself to sneer and said: "Your mother and concubine murdered the emperor's heir, it's a blessing for your majesty not to implicate you, now you have come to this palace with a knife, what are you going to do?"

"Listen, the sound of fighting outside the palace is getting closer and closer. You must be very flustered and worried about His Highness the Crown Prince and your power and wealth, right? Actually, I never cared about these things. Since I was a child, I have always thought that the Crown Prince's elder brother is the eldest son and will inherit the throne in the future. Datong is a matter of course. But what about you and the prince? Jealousy, suspicion, and the sixth brother and I are regarded as stumbling blocks for the prince, if you want to get rid of it, hurry up!"

"You are talking nonsense, maliciously slandering Zhonggong, Li Yuanyu, this time you will see whether your father will spare you or not!" The queen scolded sharply.

Li Yuanyu snorted coldly, swiped his sword and cut off half of Wang Momo's ear, and asked darkly: "If you still dare to hide it for the queen, this king will cut you into pieces!"

Under the severe pain, Wang Momo screamed and cried out with tears, "Your Majesty, save this servant!"

The fierceness in the queen's eyes became more and more fierce, and she ordered the guards around her in a deep voice: "Su Wang Li Yuanyu is disobedient and unfilial, he took hostages and trespassed in the palace, kill him immediately!"
