Qingchuan History

Chapter 158

After leaving the gate of the cold palace, Gu Xinglang didn't pause, and went straight towards the imperial garden.After walking for several miles, he suddenly found that the person following him was Ruan Xueyin.

He was taken aback for a moment, then turned around to see that Shen Ji, Di Yan, and Yun Xi were all following a few feet away.

So he stopped, looked at the other party and said, "What are you following me for?"

The implication is that after watching the play, they went back to their respective homes.

"Why did you tell her to die when she wanted to? There are still many doubts that have not been resolved. If she really died, who would you ask?"

"this one?"

Ruan Xueyin was made guilty by the tone of his question, and replied embarrassingly, "That's it."

Gu Xinglang was speechless, thought for a moment and said: "She doesn't want to die as much as you think. She was heartbroken by the so-called family relationship, but so far, those words were all said by Shangguan, and she didn't get any information from her parents. Hearing it with her own ears. So she was hesitant in the final round and left the result to God. She was not reconciled. She still had a glimmer of hope. Most likely, she wanted to save her life and go back to Cangwu to question her face to face Parents. After asking, I will be completely discouraged, and it will not be too late to die."

Ruan Xueyin was stunned when she heard this, and said for a while, "What if your guess is wrong? People want to kill themselves, sometimes it's just a thought, I just saw her heart ashamed, what if—"

"I seldom guess wrong. It should be said that so far, as long as I have guessed, I have not guessed wrong. Even if I am wrong, she really wants to die, and this sentence can be regarded as a pull for her." Seeing Ruan Xueyin's always Minghui's face showed a dull look, he wanted to laugh a little, he took two steps closer and said in a low voice:
"A person who wants to die is most afraid of others to persuade her to live. But if you let her die, or even encourage her to die, her self-awareness will be restored, and she will start to doubt whether she deserves to die, whether she can die, or not. I don't really want to die." That snow-white and delicate face was really cute at the moment, he couldn't hold back and raised his hand to gently pinch her chin, "You went down the mountain too late, you saw too few people, you still have a lot to learn. little girl."

After finishing speaking, he ignored her panic, turned around and left.Shen Ji and Di Yan were stuck in place, hesitating whether to follow quickly, but Ruan Xueyin reached out and grabbed Gu Xinglang's sleeve, and said something again.

They were far away, so naturally they couldn't see the blush on her face clearly.Even so, her speech is still coherent, but her articulation is not as clear as usual: "Also, and,"

"and also?"

"When did you start to suspect her? Everything has been investigated? What about the six people?"

Gu Xinglang took a deep breath, turned his head to look at the sky, and said solemnly: "Come here at night. I have to deal with some things right now."

"Are you going to cook the Rain Palace?"

He frowned slightly: "Let's talk at night. You showed up today without permission, and I haven't asked your guilt yet." Yibi raised his hand again to pinch her right cheek, "I can hardly pinch it anymore. Go back to eat quickly. Dr. Cui Didn't they prepare a bunch of medicinal food for you?"

Ruan Xueyin was finally a little annoyed, she turned away her face and wanted to reprimand him for talking, why did she do it when she spoke, and even moved twice!The other party didn't give him a chance at all, and he had already walked several steps away with his hands down.

Shen Ji and Diyan were sure they should follow at this moment, so they hurried to catch up.Yunxi also walked quickly to Ruan Xueyin's side, helped her by the arm and planned to go back, but saw that her face was pale and red, she couldn't help laughing, but she didn't dare to laugh, she clenched her teeth and held back.

Seeing her funny look, Ruan Xueyin was even more annoyed, Yunxi hurriedly apologized and said with a smile:
"Madam should be annoyed! With all these people watching, Your Majesty should pay more attention. But Madam is too thin-skinned, but it's just," she said shyly, using hand gestures to hint at pinching her face, "that's all. It's all—yes Come on. What's the matter?"

Ruan Xueyin couldn't understand what she was saying at all, what about "already"?Think of the phrase "little girl", she is only a few months younger than him.Besides, Ah Ji's true identity must have been discovered by her.Who is not good at learning?

For a while, the chin and the cheek pinched by him were burning hot, and the temperature cooled down a little when they were approaching the gate of Zhexue Palace.

The unitary hour is about to pass, cook the rain hall.

"Your Majesty is coming for dinner, why didn't you greet someone in advance? You should prepare carefully."

It's still that sweet and glutinous voice, which sounds particularly greasy today.

Gu Xinglang picked up chopsticks and mixed cold okra, chewed it carefully, and said in harmony: "This is very good. Let me tell you in advance, the taste of this table full of dishes is not right."

Shangguan Concubine didn't understand this sentence, she felt that it was not a good word, she was a little apprehensive for a moment, she silently scooped a spoonful of shrimp custard and put it into her mouth.

"Before I came, I went to Lenggong to meet your sister."

The custard has not had time to swallow.

A small spoonful that obviously melted in the mouth got stuck in the throat, and it was a dilemma, forcing the person to almost choke.

But she is the daughter of Xiangguo.The upbringing she received did not allow her to cough or spit out the soup at this moment.Her face was flushed from holding back, she exhausted all her strength, and finally swallowed the foreign object in her throat.

"Your Majesty, what did you just say? The courtiers and concubines are dull and didn't hear clearly."

Her breathing was not smooth, and the two short sentences were cut into incoherent words by the uneven breath.

"If I had known she was your older sister, I would have forgiven you that day when you came to Wanlan Hall to plead for mercy. It's a pity you didn't tell me."

Shangguan's mind went blank.It's not that she hasn't imagined this scene, she even rehearsed it with Xi Wu, how she will tear herself apart when the incident happens in the future.

But at the moment she couldn't cry.Gu Xinglang was too calm and determined, she didn't have the confidence to implement any strategy——

The atmosphere is totally wrong.He was not annoyed, nor did he feel disappointed in the slightest.

Totally calm.and sure.

"Your Majesty, forgive me!" She stood up abruptly, knelt down in front of Gu Xinglang, and pulled the hem of her dragon-pattern uniform in mourning: "Your concubine concealed the fact that my sister-in-law is my own sister, and concealed the fact that Sishu Zhan and those plants belonged to her." The purpose is to tell her what she saw and learned in the Qi Palace, and let her send letters back to Cangwu every month. Apart from that, there is nothing else!"

Gu Xinglang didn't like being dragged by his clothes, so he frowned and said, "Get up and talk."

"Your concubine dare not! Your Majesty forgave her this time, so she got up!"

"Let go. Speak well."

Shangguan's concubine was stunned, and Nuonuo let go, only then realized that she had lost her manners, and hurriedly corrected her kneeling position, and answered delicately: "Yes. Your Majesty will know everything you want to ask."

"You just said that there is nothing else, what happened to the Xiling hut?"

Shangguan concubine trembled all over, almost unable to kneel.She thought that Gu Xinglang just discovered the identity of Ah Ji, and she didn't know the whole story of Xiling——

According to Ah Ji's analysis beforehand, the situation is flawless, even if there are doubts, there will be no evidence. Those six people are dead men!
"My lord can't understand what your majesty said." Her voice trembled slightly, but she tried her best to maintain her composure.

Gu Xinglang leaned forward and looked at her with dark eyes: "Those six people, didn't they follow your orders to go to the hut? Phoenix cry, didn't you teach them to use it? Was it you who murdered Mrs. Yu?" ?”

Phoenix Cry was discovered!
That's right, Ruan Xueyin appeared out of nowhere, and things didn't work out. The medicine didn't lose its effect when Ji Wanling was rescued, so it can be seen naturally.

But for the sake of the country, the family, and herself, Ah Pei will not just tell the truth.So at this moment, Gu Xinglang is probably just deceiving himself.
