Chapter 141 The Death of Princess Yunyin
Seeing that it was Prince Lanling arriving, Xiao Xian smiled warmly and politely, then turned and walked towards the mansion.
Xiao Jinyu also looked at Prince Lanling and smiled slightly.
After entering the mansion, Xiao Jinyu took him to a secluded pavilion to rest.
"Is this the road you have paved for your relatives?" After a while, Prince Lanling looked at the girl's crystal clear face under the dusk light and asked with a smile, "Has it been paved?"
"Yes, I'm very sorry. I included the county prince in my scheme, and made you a bargaining chip for me to pave the way for the Xiao family and negotiate terms with Chen Xu."
"Don't say that, Xiao Jinyu, I know you are not such a person. It's just that Princess Yunyin's mouth is too vicious. Saying such words makes you the target of public criticism and makes the emperor of your Southern Dynasty even more afraid of the Xiao family. You have no choice but to It’s just a choice made.”
Having said this, he also looked into Xiao Jinyu's eyes and smiled brightly.
"But I'm very happy that you chose me at the last moment. It's precious to me that you can believe in me!"
"Xiao Jinyu, I am lucky to marry you!"
These words made her heart skip a beat, and unknowingly, a warmth surged into her heart. Even she herself didn't realize that her eyes were already sparkling with light.
King Lanling was disappointed.
"Thank you, Prince!"
After a pause, she asked again, "Is the prince leaving to return to Northern Qi soon?"
"Yes, I recently received a letter from the State of Qi. My grandmother, the Queen Mother Lou, is not in good health and is bedridden. I'm afraid..."
Lou Zhaojun?
Hearing this name, Xiao Jinyu felt a little respect in her heart. She had heard of Lou Zhaojun in her previous life. She chose a wealthy family with a well-matched family background and chose Gao Huan, who was just a soldier at the time. Regardless of her family's objections, she resolutely married him. After that, she fully assisted her husband in his pursuit of great success in the world, often working for him. Make plans,
Later, Gao Huan became the King of Bohai. In order to expand his power and marry Rouran, Lou Zhaojun even avoided his position in the royal family and submitted to Princess Rouran. When he gave birth to a child, he was in danger, and he also prevented his followers from sending messages to Gao Huan who was on the Western Expedition. , just so as not to add even the slightest burden or worry to her husband.
Having found such a good wife, what more could a husband ask for? Therefore, some people say that Lou Zhaojun, as his virtuous wife, played an important role in Gao Huan's great achievements!
Thinking of this, Xiao Jinyu nodded and said: "Okay, when does the prince plan to set off, I will go to Northern Qi with the prince."
Gao Changgong was very happy, and considering that she would be reluctant to leave her family soon, he said: "After you and Hairi!"
After a moment of pause, Xiao Jinyu still said calmly:
"Okay, I have agreed with Uncle Xian that the haircut ceremony will be held tomorrow!"
Gao Changgong nodded and planned to leave, but before leaving, he suddenly asked in a low voice:
"Xiao Jinyu, can I kiss you?"
His eyes were as bright as stars, full of teasing and expectation.
She also smiled slightly.
"Okay, come on!" she said.
Unexpectedly, she raised her head generously and closed her eyes. Gao Changgong smiled inwardly, held up her cheek, kissed her forehead, and then slid down the graceful curve of her nose. Between the bright red lips.
"Xiao Jinyu, I know that my home country is not a good place for you, but since you have chosen to believe in me, I will do my best to make you feel that as long as I am here, I can give you the beauty you want! "
"I will protect you with my life!"
After he whispered these words in her ear, he left quietly. When Xiao Jinyu opened her eyes, he was no longer there.
Xiao Xian also saw everything in the pavilion. After silently watching King Lanling leave, he also came to Xiao Jinyu and saw that she was still in a daze, as if she was still thinking about something.
He also stood with him for a moment and then said: "Ayu, he is indeed good, but the Northern Qi Gao family... people like him are in the minority after all, you still have to be more careful..."
Xiao Jinyu finally came to his senses and nodded.
"Uncle Xian, I'm going to see Princess Yunyin again. There's something I still haven't figured out!"
…
Princess Yunyin was imprisoned in the court. When Xiao Jinyu, led by the jailer, came to the cell where Princess Yunyin was, she couldn't help but feel familiar. It seemed that in that dream, it was the place where Han Zigao drank poisonous wine. That's it.
Seeing Xiao Jinyu's arrival, Princess Yunyin widened her eyes with great resentment and cursed: "What are you doing here, a little bastard? Are you here to watch my jokes?"
"Chen Jianchen, have you ever thought about why your imperial brother didn't care about you and didn't save you? Why did you change your identity and marry into the Xiao family as Princess Yunyin?"
"Haha...why should I tell you?"
"Xiao Jian has already confessed all the crimes he committed among the Tingwei. In fact, I can guess it even if you don't tell me."
Chen Jianchen's face turned pale, and suspicion suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"What did he say? What did he tell you?" "He said, back then, you fell in love with Han Zigao, and you sent him a poem as a gift. We made an appointment at Qinxiao Pavilion, and you wanted to have a night of pleasure with aphrodisiac wine, but you didn't. I think General Han left temporarily because of something, so he put the glass of wine you prepared for General Han on your table. After you drank it, you mistakenly thought he was General Han, so..."
"Then Xiao Yun came along. At that time, the Queen Mother Zhang felt that this matter was detrimental to the royal family's face, so she simply said that you were dead, and then changed your identity and married you into the Xiao family, right?"
Chen Jianchen's expression changed suddenly after hearing this.
"What did you say? It was he who changed that glass of wine, not Han Zigao? Was he the one who changed it?"
She seemed unwilling to believe it, and seemed to recall the humiliation of that day. When she woke up, she was naked and still lying in the arms of a man, surrounded by whispers, contempt and ridicule.
Laughing at her, a princess was having fun with men in the Qin Tower and Chu Pavilion like a concubine!
At that moment, the humiliation made her lose her mind, and she killed all those who laughed at her. This incident caused such a sensation that even the censor wanted to take a copy of her and condemn her to death!
So she attributed all her hatred to Xiao Luan and Han Zigao. Originally, she asked Xiao Luan to write a letter to Han Zigao on their behalf, but in the end the two people had a secret affair behind her back. When they met in Qinxiao Pavilion, Han Zigao discovered that the person he met was not Xiao Luan but Chen Jianchen, so he found an excuse and turned around and left.
If he hadn't exchanged that glass of wine...she wouldn't have ended up like that, being ridiculed by a group of despicable common people!
Therefore, she also wanted to let that woman who was always aloof and inviolable fall into the dust, just like her!
She also wants Han Zigao to live in the pain of hurting the woman she loves most forever!
Let them be ridiculed by the world and never be allowed to meet again!
This is her revenge!
But now... he was not the one who made her drink that glass of wine by mistake? But... Xiao Jian!
"Why are you telling me this? Why?"
Xiao Jinyu let her roar hysterically. After she calmed down, she asked:
"Chen Jianchen, who taught you the art of disguise? Why did you collude with Lord Lu of Northern Qi? Did you and Lord Lingxuan conspire to kill my mother?"
This series of questions made Chen Jianchen, who was laughing crazily, suddenly calm down. She sneered a few times, and a few strands of her hair hung down to cover her eyes.
Smiling, she looked at Xiao Jinyu and said proudly: "Yes, I conspired with Lord Lu, so what?"
"If you have the ability, go to the land of Northern Qi and kill Lord Lu!"
After saying that, she laughed even more crazily.
Xiao Jinyu felt compassion and walked out of Tingwei's office with a cold face. Just after she walked out of the office, the emperor Chen Xu came to the prison.
Chen Jianchen, who was originally a princess of a country, did not have to be in Tingwei's prison. Even if she died, she should die with dignity, or a glass of poisonous wine, or a white silk ribbon.
But Xiao Jinyu has already announced all her crimes in front of many scholars. If he is still biased, he is, as "Xie Zhen" said, a foolish king who favors the royal family and enforces the law unfairly!
This will chill the hearts of all the scholars in the world!
He is a person who knows how to make choices and is the king of a country!
Seeing Chen Xu, Chen Jianchen was overjoyed and climbed out of the prison.
"Brother Emperor, you are here. Are you here to let me out?"
"You know, everything I do is for our Chen family. Ask these people to let me out. I'm going to kill that cheap maid!"
Chen Xu had a cold face and didn't say anything for a long time. Finally, he just said lightly: "Achen, you are out of control!"
"Okay, I'm calm, I'm calm!" She tried her best to suppress her fearful and uneasy mood, and stretched out her hand from the iron bars, "Brother, believe me, the death of King Shiheung must have been caused by that cheap maid. She bewitched the queen, who sent her to the palace to treat you. No one knows what she told the queen.
This lowly maid is as popular as her mother, and she is also good at scheming. No, she is even more terrifying than her mother. She has been in Jiankang for only a few months and has turned her hand into clouds and rain. If you don't kill her, It will be a disaster in the future! "
Chen Xu's expression changed, but he remained calm.
Seeing that he seemed unmoved, Chen Jianchen added: "Otherwise, if you let her go to Northern Qi, give her to Gao Changgong, the king of Lanling. The king of Northern Qi is cruel and debauched. If you let her go there, someone will deal with her and kill her." No burial place!"
At this time, Chen Xu replied calmly: "She has asked herself to marry Gao Changgong, the King of Lanling in Northern Qi!"
"What?"
Chen Jianchen was stunned for a moment.
Then I heard Chen Xu change the subject inexplicably: "Achen, this is the place where Han Zigao died."
Not knowing why he said this, Chen Jianchen suddenly felt a bad premonition in his heart, and the crazy and excited look on his face suddenly dimmed.
"What does the emperor mean by saying this?" she asked.
"Before you die, I can grant you one wish! Keep your son safe for the rest of his life!"
Chen Xu said, and then raised his hand to signal Wu Wu to bring a glass of wine.
"This is the same glass of wine he drank at the beginning."
In Chen Jianchen's shock and fear, he added solemnly:
"Golden wine!"
