Liu Qing was still a little scared, and hugged Zhong Yanyu’s arm, “My lord, my servant is not hungry, but… But how do you know this secret path, will it be dangerous?” “Don’t worry,
this secret path is left over from the previous dynasty Your young master just found out about it by accident, and now only the two of us know about it, so please don’t let it slip.”
Zhong Yanyu looked around, and the secret way was the same as in her previous life.
In the last life, my father wiped out a small rebel army. The leader of the rebel army claimed that he was of the orthodox blood. My father searched him for the architectural plan of the palace, and secretly gave it to him.
There are pavilions and palaces built in the palace every year. Although there have been many changes in the past few hundred years, they are generally similar. He learned from the city defense map that the leader of the rebel army is most likely an orphan from the previous dynasty. The city defense map is from the Wu Zhou Dynasty three hundred years ago. drawings.
And in this blueprint, there are several secret passages, which he didn’t even know about when he asked Jing Guhan.
Presumably the former emperor left blood because of them. Liu Qing only felt that her young master was really powerful, and instantly turned into a little girl, “Don’t worry , young master,
this servant will never tell this secret!”
Gu Han could only see a sea of ​​flames.
“Report to Your Majesty, the Qianqing palace is full of kerosene, the fire burns too fast, I tried my best, but… still failed to rescue the empress…” The disgraced leader knelt down on the ground, too scared to raise his head.
Surrounded by dead silence, only the crackling of the fire, the eunuchs and maids filed in, carrying buckets of water to the Qianqing Palace, but this is fire oil, fire oil that cannot be extinguished by floods…Jing Guhan
‘s His Adam’s apple was sliding, his facial features were as stiff as ice, he was trembling all over, and he could only look at Qianqing Palace with red eyes.
Suddenly, he suddenly wanted to rush into the sea of ​​flames, but was firmly stopped by the leader!
“Your Majesty, this fire will not be extinguished for a while! You have to take care of the dragon body!”
“Get out! Yanyu will not die!” He will never give up if he can’t see the other party’s body!
He groaned in pain, his eyes were red, he didn’t understand why fire oil appeared in Qianqing Palace? ! But just overnight, how could something happen to his Yanyu? !
His Yanyu!
Yanyu…
the empress dowager rushed over when she heard the sound, and she was startled when she saw Jing Guhan who wanted to rush into the sea of ​​fire, and she immediately shouted: “Come on! Hold the emperor!”
Zhong Yanyu died as soon as he died, and the emperor can’t do anything!
The guards also understood this truth, and the leader grabbed Jing Guhan’s leg tightly.
The sky was dyed blood red by the fire, and the dark clouds were reflected on the buckets. The thick smoke smelled like a medicine barrel about to explode, and the whole palace seemed to be shrouded in a shadow.
The people in Qianqing Palace worked hard all night before they managed to extinguish the fire.
Jing Guhan stayed up all night, his eyes were red, the blood in his body seemed to be clotted, and his heart seemed to be pinched and twisted by a vise.
He looked at the two unrecognizable corpses brought up by the leader, and dared not lift the shroud.
“Doctor Liu, you have treated the queen for so long, go and see if it is the queen…” The queen mother couldn’t bear to see him, and her eyes fell on Liu Zhi who was kneeling on the ground.
Liu Zhi groaned in his heart, he finally understood why Zhong Yanyu begged him for two corpses similar to theirs.
Zhong Yanyu is indeed not dead! But the palace guards are so strict, can the other party escape?
He pretended to look at the two charred corpses, “My Majesty, the Empress Dowager, one of these two corpses is a male corpse, and the other is a female corpse. The male corpse is roughly similar to the empress…” He dared
not He said the words to death, but Jing Guhan still smashed the teacup and grabbed his collar.
“You quack doctor! How could this be a kind of jade?!” He looked at the corpse below like a raging beast, and felt a sharp pain in his heart.
How could his Yanyu die? !
“Your Majesty, everything this old minister said is true… dare not… dare not lie… cough cough cough!” Liu Zhi said intermittently, almost out of breath.
Jing Guhan threw him down and shouted to the side, “Duan Jianping, Xu Pingye
!
“
Clean up the palace! No one is allowed to leave the palace until the truth is found out!”
He forced himself to calm down, “Even if the palace is turned upside down, I have to find him. Fire oil is a tribute from the Western Regions. Why is there such a thing?” So many are in the Qianqing Palace, and whether there are servants who disappeared in the palace recently, find out the identities of the two corpses, control the servants around Zhong Yanyu and torture them, and find out the truth!” There are many doubts about the fire
.
First, all the servants of the Qianqing Palace were dismissed, then the fireproof tank outside the Qianqing Palace ran out of water, and finally kerosene, and it was precisely chosen on the day of the farewell banquet, when the guards were relaxed.
Jing Guhan narrowed his eyes, he firmly believed that Zhong Yanyu must still be in the palace, after the farewell banquet was over, he was still arguing with himself, it is impossible to leave the palace mixed in with the foreigners.
Then there is only hiding, but where can he hide? Although the palace is big, the guards are even stricter. He sent all the imperial guards and imperial troops to look for it. He didn’t believe that the other party could hide for how long!
“Your Majesty, won’t the blockade of the palace make things worse?”
The queen mother was worried, but what she was worried about was not Zhong Yanyu’s death, but the interests behind it.
Seeing Jing Guhan’s unprecedented loss of composure, she was very worried, “Your Majesty, whether Zhong Yanyu is dead or alive, you are the king of a country, and you must not lose your mind because of him.” Jing Guhan understood her thoughts, but he is full of emotions now
. His mind was filled with the shadow of Zhong Yanyu.
“Mother, if I don’t investigate this matter thoroughly, how can I explain it to the Zhong family? Both Zhong Chuxun and Zhong Yanqing are not people who can be dismissed casually.” Hearing what he said, the queen mother sighed and could only let her go
. Let him go.
But in the harem at this time, everyone only knew that there was a fire in the Qianqing Palace, and they were gloating.
In the Xulan Pavilion, Concubine Xi and Concubine Kang chatted while admiring the flowers.
Concubine Xi’s eyes flickered, “It really is a male empress, even God can’t stand it anymore, it looks like we don’t need to do anything, this retribution will come.” Concubine Kang smiled mockingly, “Sister is right
, The body of a man will not last long in this harem. The queen has been in the palace for so long, and she looks glamorous on the outside, but after so many years, the emperor doesn’t even give her a title.” “I heard that the empress was seriously injured.
Now I live in Tiangan Palace, and the outside is heavily guarded, but my palace sent people to inquire, and His Majesty didn’t go over to take a look.” Xi Ting couldn’t help laughing, with a vicious gleam in her eyes.
“If you want me to tell you that if you live like this, you might as well just die.”
Concubine Kang lowered her eyes when she heard the words, and gently brushed the floating leaves on the tea, “I heard that His Majesty lost his beloved cat yesterday and is filling the palace. I’m looking for it, I don’t think I have the time to visit the empress.”
The meaning in the words, in Jing Guhan’s heart, Zhong Yanyu is even worse than a cat.
Killing and killing people—
but they were surrounded by their personal maids, so the two of them did not shy away from speaking, but because of Zhong Yanyu’s disappearance, there were many hidden guards in the palace, and Jin Yiwei almost turned the palace upside down.
These remarks were naturally heard by others.
In the imperial study room, Jing Guhan couldn’t finish the memorial, he couldn’t imagine that Zhong Yanyu was really dead.
“Your Majesty.” Xu Chen was holding a box in his hand, a little frightened.
Jing Guhan raised his red eyes and looked at him, “What’s the matter?”
“This is the maid of the empress’s body last night, and the slaves gave it to His Majesty early in the morning…” Xu Chen lowered his head, not daring to meet her gaze.
A companion is like a tiger, not to mention that the other party is a violent lion.
“Bring it up!” Jing Guhan immediately stood up upon hearing this.
Xu Chen put the box on the desk. The lock was locked and there was no key, but Jing Guhan couldn’t help it. He immediately took a dagger and easily pried open the simple lock.
Inside was a strand of broken hair, a ruby ​​ring, and a letter…
There must be clues to Yanyu!
He was almost sure, and immediately opened the envelope in a hurry, but what he found were two big bright red characters, Xu Chen who was standing behind him also saw it, and with just one glance, a turbulent sea was set off in his heart!
Divorce book!
It turned out to be a divorce letter!
He gasped, not daring to look any further!
Jing Guhan’s hands that had never trembled began to tremble.
How dare Zhong Yanyu? ! How dare you divorce him? ! He is the king of Dasong, no one in this world dares to go against his wishes!
“Being married when I was young, I was a husband and wife, I once embraced the love of being together, and I cherished the joy of being together; You once made a vow of white head, promised one person with one heart, you once vowed never to be separated, but once the palace gate enters deep like the sea, Since you have two opinions, so you will never meet each other, you are willing to die as an apology, and from now on, you will never miss each other again, and you will never see each other again!” ——Therefore, this
letter of divorce is made, and there will be no disputes between each other after marriage. Fearing that there is no basis for the future, I voluntarily made this article as a photo.
——Contractor: Zhong Yanyu, March 20th, the twenty-sixth year of Xizheng.
…
He knew every word on it, but when combined together, it was like a sharp knife piercing into his heart, Jing Guhan immediately tore up this and Li Shu.
Zhong Yanyu! You bastard! ! !
If I catch you, I will cut off your hands and feet!
I’m fat! You bastard!
But his heart seemed to have a big opening, and the cold wind kept pouring into it.
Could something really happen to Zhong Yanyu? Such an obvious desire to die in the divorce letter… Is this what Zhong Yanyu said to him last night? Why is he so extreme, what can’t he say properly? !
At this moment, the leader of Jin Yiwei came to report, “Your Majesty, Wanan.”
“How is the investigation going?” He spoke with difficulty, his voice was hoarse since he hadn’t had a sip of water since last night.
“I found out that the Empress sent someone to take away all the kerosene tribute from the Western Regions on the grounds that the lights of the Qianqing Palace were dim and needed to be lit, and the fireproof tank outside the Qianqing Palace was also because the Empress ordered the servants to use it for watering the flowers. That night, It was also the queen’s personal maid who transferred all the maids and eunuchs…” The man’s voice gradually dropped.
Because when it comes to this, smart people understand that the empress is largely suicidal.Â
