After rebirth, White Lotus forced her husband to be a good man

Chapter 43: Stepping on the scorching fire, looking at the gods, your love for me is the most difficult thing for me to overcome
On the sedan chair leaving the palace, Xiao Zhen sat alone, his cold eyes extremely vicious.He squeezed his knees tightly, and the blood jade bracelet on his wrist swayed with the sedan chair. His pursed lips were slightly purple at the moment, and his face was ashen.

He recalled many things from that year.He returned to the capital and was granted the title of king and land. In order to lay a solid foundation, he used despicable means to possess Lan Qiu, the legitimate daughter of the Lan family.At that time, the Lan family held a hundred thousand military power, and with the support of the Prime Minister Lan Taijing, they were the leading ministers of the court. Lan Qiu was originally a woman the Lan family was planning to send to the palace, and she had already decided to become the queen in the future. Wei's plan was intercepted by Xiao Zhen.

Forced by desperation, Lan Qiu married into the Sixth Prince's Palace, and Lan Ji, a concubine of the Lan family, took her place and married into the palace. She won the favor of the emperor and was named Queen of Wude.Lan Qiu and Lan Ji were not pregnant at the same time, and Lan Ji was born two months prematurely, so Ye Niansi and Xiao Yancai were born on the same day, same year, and same month.

They are similar in age, but their lives are very different.Ye Niansi grew up with a golden key in his mouth. He was a legitimate son at birth and enjoyed all the glory and wealth. He was familiar with the four books at a young age and was extremely talented. Even the always serious Jiang Guanzhi praised him very much and said that he was an emperor's talent.

But the son Xiao Zhen he had acquired through his scheming could not speak at the age of three, could not count at the age of five, and could even pronounce the word 'father' at the age of eight.He also did not believe in evil and went to the palace to meet the fourteenth legitimate son, thinking what a young boy could do to others.

But at that moment, based on his years of understanding people, if this little thing is not eliminated, his son will definitely have no chance in the future.At that time, I wanted to get close to Ye Niansi, but it was extremely difficult. The emperor loved him so much that he was afraid of melting away even if he held it in his hands.

Mayor Xiao breathed a long sigh of relief, his eyebrows were sharp. These things seemed like yesterday. Who would have thought that many years ago, he could not kill Ye Niansi because of his protection. Many years later, he had already achieved great achievements, but he still could not kill him. This deposed the legitimate son.

He won't give up.He knows that his miserable life has always been due to the fact that he clearly has imperial connections and abilities, but allows people far inferior to him to control his life and death. This kind of being strangled by others and always worried about the emperor's favor. He would never let his son experience the feeling of dying again.

He must make his son king, no matter how dirty and insidious the road is, how many people need to be sacrificed, how many terrifying methods need to be done...he will definitely be able to do it.

Ye Niansi, he would never let this person live well.He will eradicate anyone who threatens Xiao Yan.But then, his heavy thoughts seemed to suddenly become clear. He had forgotten one of the most important things. Ye Niansi was a descendant of the traitor Lan family.

If you want to kill him, just saying a few words and repeating the same old tricks is the simplest and most vicious way.It's just that in this game of chess this time, Xiao Zhen won't think of playing as simple as playing the game. He will let all the old ministries related to the Lan family, those rats hiding in the dark, and the ants in the gutter, die in the sun, let them The death of filth paved the road to Mingjun for his pure and kind Xiao Yan.

At that time, in Qinmi Palace, Xiao Qin was sitting in front of the dressing table. The maid behind her had small and delicate eyebrows and alert eyes. She held a short sandalwood comb in her hand and slid it down from top to bottom on Xiao Qin's blue silk hair.

Next to the dressing table was a basin filled with blood and one or two square towels.However, there was no strong smell of blood in the room. Compared to the thrilling day on the third day of March, today was much calmer.

Xiao Qin's big round eyes looked sideways at her long hair, and a hint of impatience flashed between her eyebrows. She stood up leisurely, and the maid next to her came forward to help her, but she didn't need it, and she didn't walk for a long time. Stepping forward, he sat on the carved stool, raised his eyes and looked outside, and said in an arrogant tone, "Is he still standing there?"

The maid Qing Xiao had a sharp eye. She quickly stepped forward and took a look through the crack in the door. She turned around and knelt beside Xiao Qin and replied, "My queen did not help the wrong person. His Highness the Night King is standing over there." , I think the emperor was worried about the empress, so even though he knew that the assassin was not sent by him, he still didn't let him go lightly."

Xiao Qin chuckled lightly, with a cold look in her eyes. She stretched out a hand to lean on the table, raised her hand to pinch her belly slightly, and a trace of unwillingness flashed in her eyebrows.When she got up three days ago, she accidentally missed her footing and fell to the ground. The baby in her belly was already unstable, and this fall almost killed her.

The child that was shed was a premature baby girl who had lost her breath. Thanks to Xiao Qin's body being strong enough, there was no other problem.

She thought about it and felt that something was wrong, so she sent Qing Xiao to investigate secretly. She learned that Lin Shu frequently entered the palace, claiming to be involved in government affairs with the Imperial Council, but he was also seen and Yuan Zhan has a close relationship with Taiyuan Hospital.

When she was six months old, she learned that the child in her belly was not a prince. Although she was depressed, she couldn't bear Xiao Zhen's eager eyes. She wanted to see how he would act and scheme, so after the child was gone, she made excuses She wanted to eat the imperial concubine plum, but the emperor doted on her, so he led his troops out of the suburbs, giving her a chance to cultivate and regain her health.

The child was gone, and she didn't feel much sad.When she first entered the palace, she was well aware that the emperor's favor was weak. Looking at the difficult lives of the princesses and princesses in the palace, the Night Emperor mostly admired brave women on horseback. For these ladies in the palace, even his own daughter would not A bit of a good look.Since even those who are born may not have a good life, she doesn't have to be obsessed with the child who has no chance to come into this world.

But she didn't want to suffer this physical pain in vain. If the emperor knew that she accidentally hurt the emperor's heir, Long Yan would be furious, but her soft role would no longer be able to stand up in his heart, so She made a random design. Originally she just wanted to find someone to pretend to assassinate, so that she could have the opportunity to create the illusion of being forced to have an abortion.

But she had heard about Ye Niansi's fall into the lake, the assassination of the emperor's mausoleum, etc. There was no one else who would torture a deposed legitimate son in such a boring way.Although with Xiao Qin's mind, she couldn't figure out why Xiao Zhen was targeting Ye Niansi so much, but killing two birds with one stone and ruining his good plan was a satisfying thing.

No, seeing his surprised and deflated look today, she almost couldn't contain the pain on her face.Counting this time, Ye Niansi owed her two favors. This poor orphan was also pitiful. She sighed deeply, but she didn't expect him to be grateful for anything. After all, her plan was just... Even with his limited brain, he would not be able to figure it out even in 800 years.

She just hopes that this matter will never be noticed by the emperor. In this way, she can firmly sit in the position of the concubine and always hold the happiness of glory and wealth.

She raised her hand and said, "Let the king of that night kneel down, kowtow three times to me and admit his mistake, and then get out." She didn't want an unlucky person to stare outside all night, and it happened that the emperor would not be there these days. She would stay overnight, so she had to catch up on her sleep and recuperate.

The moonlight gradually became colder, and bright white light shone on Ye Niansi's tall nose, leaving a bright shadow on his thin cheeks.He stood alone in the yard. Before long, his broad shoulders were covered with white plum petals.

His dark eyes were slightly lowered, his hands were hanging by his sides, and his face was cold and indifferent. Several eunuchs holding lanterns passed by outside the side door of the palace. Some of them were the ones who made things difficult for him in the cold palace at that time. Now they saw what was inside. The scene made his body tremble uncontrollably.

They lowered their voices——

"Have you heard that the Night King sent an assassin today, causing the imperial concubine to have a miscarriage!"

"Your Majesty, won't you kill him? This is not a small matter!"

"What was I talking about at that time? Whoever gets close to the fourteenth prince of the emperor will be unlucky and unlucky!" They discussed all the way, and a little of their voice reached Ye Niansi's ears. His black eyes slid aside with disdain, and his expression did not change much. .A palace maid walked out of the luxurious palace with carved railings and jade in front of her. Qing Xiao lowered her waist slightly in front of him and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Night King, your health is no longer serious. You can kowtow three times in front of the door and then you can return to your palace." .”

A coldness flashed in Ye Niansi's black eyes, and he said unhurriedly, "Since there is nothing serious, Concubine Qin doesn't want to come and see what I, the assassin, look like."

Qing Xiao was stunned for a moment, then tightened his grip on the tiger's mouth, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, wondering if there was something wrong with this person's brain?Everyone spared him this time and gave him a chance to live, both inside and outside his words. How come he still didn't know what he was doing?

She was about to say a few more words and give him a heads up when the two doors to the left and right of the bedroom in front of her suddenly opened. Xiao Qin was sitting on a chair and was carried out by four eunuchs on the left and right. She was wrapped in thick mink velvet and had a complexion. It was as white as dust. Seeing that Qing Xiao hadn't gone in for so long, she asked impatiently, "What's going on?"

Qing Xiao stepped forward and whispered something in her ear. Xiao Qin frowned slightly at first, but after hearing this, his eyebrows became more serious. She raised her eyes to look at the legendary legitimate son of Leng Gong, and saw him standing there alone. She was not dejected, nor panicked. She originally thought that he would kowtow in a panic and then crawl away from the Qinmi Palace, but he was completely different.

Xiao Qin glared at him, "Night King, you hired someone to assassinate me. Now I don't care about you, but do you know your guilt?"

The corners of Ye Niansi's lips trembled slightly. He raised his eyes, looked straight at Xiao Qin with his black eyes, and said slowly, "The generosity of Concubine Qin is indeed beyond my expectation. Since ancient times, tiger poison cannot eat its seeds, and birds and beasts cannot eat their seeds." , cherish the things you have given us, and if you make one or two mistakes, you will not be willing to sacrifice your life to seek justice and let the culprit lose [-]% of his soul."

He paused and then said, "My dear concubine, your concubine only ordered me to kowtow three times. I wonder if your concubine is too vicious and far more powerful than a tiger, or is her calculation too shallow and her life is in jeopardy?"

Xiao Qin's eyes were stunned, and her hands wrapped in mink velvet trembled slightly.Yes, Ye Niansi reminded her, if she lost her child due to someone else's fault, how could a mother let it go?Although she aborted the baby because of her own fault, her heart was still in pain for a long time. If she hadn't forced herself to think of some comforting reasons, she would have been blaming herself so much now.

She can't act too fake, otherwise no one will be able to hide it. As Ye Niansi said, the day is at stake.She couldn't help but look at the helpless man in front of her in surprise. His calculations were so deep. Could it be that he had even figured out that she was taking this opportunity to cover up the fact that he accidentally injured the emperor's heir?
Xiao Qin took a few breaths, thinking that she could climb to where she is today despite Guan Shuliang's tigress's knife, and she couldn't be scared out of her wits by just a few words. She slammed the chair and shouted sternly. Pointing at Ye Niansi, he cursed angrily, "I only wanted to be nice to you because of His Majesty's face, but now I am shameless! Come on, get on the fire blanket!"

The fire blanket punishment was a punishment used by the harem to punish disobedient slaves.After Xiao Qin gave the order, the maids came forward with the brazier and spread a strip of red-hot coals three feet wide and nine feet long on the ground. The person who was to be tortured had to walk from one end to the other with bare feet.

The charcoal fire was burning brightly, with the ground turning red and purple, and billowing smoke.

Ye Niansi looked at the long road paved with charcoal, his face expressionless, and the orange firelight reflected in his black eyes, but was quenched by the endless darkness in his eyes.If what he guessed today was correct, Xiao Qin deceived him and saved him from a disaster. However, the person who harmed him behind the scenes, the person who wanted to kill him in the Jiayu Emperor's Mausoleum, whoever saw this Even if there is even one clue, he cannot escape the slander of colluding with Xiao Qin.

The emperor asked him to stay and wait for Xiao Qin to deal with it, not because of the so-called compassion of the holy heart and he couldn't bear to hurt his own blood, but because he had unexplainable doubts in his heart. He wanted to see Xiao Qin's reaction to guess this matter. Once Ye Niansi walked out of Qinmi Palace so easily, the emperor had no reason to tolerate his suspicion and anger.

The more seriously injured he is, the more relieved the Night Emperor will be. He will continue to favor Xiao Qin and hate Ye Niansi, and the person behind him who challenges the emperor's power by scheming against Ye Niansi will sooner or later be unable to help but take action again. , at that time, the emperor can use the reason of protecting the prince to kill dissidents and establish his authority.

Ye Niansi took a deep breath and was about to take off his boots when a woman suddenly appeared behind him, grabbed his arm and pulled him behind him.

Tan Yuwang just saw them at the palace gate talking here for a long time, but not only did they not reach an agreement, but they also brought out such punishments. Suddenly she couldn't sit still anymore. She first saluted Xiao Qin, and then stared straight into her almond eyes. Staring at her, "My dear concubine, my husband was wronged. He has been with me all the time. There is no way he has time to arrange these things. I hope you will understand!"

Xiao Qin leaned back on the chair and sighed slightly. She raised her chin and narrowed her eyes, "It turns out she is the noble daughter of the Qin Mansion. I have already found out this matter, and the Night King also admitted it. I advise you "Don't be so presumptuous with me. I'm not a virtuous concubine. Go out and ask around. I'm the one with the most vicious methods in the palace." She glanced at the door and said, "Get out!"

Xiao Qin didn't want to cause trouble in this matter. This was not the first time she had met this little girl. Su Wen was a unruly and domineering noblewoman who was able to run around in the palace relying on the power of the Qin family. It was just the man beside her. But with a snake, a scorpion, a dragon and a tiger in one body, why should she be protected?

Qin Yuwang didn't think too much about it at the moment. She only knew that the person must have been framed. In her eyes, what she saw was that Ye Niansi had been wronged again and had no way to defend himself. Now he was forced to walk away from the fire. past.

Xiao Qin glanced at Ye Niansi inadvertently, and saw that the man who was cold and arrogant just now was standing close to the woman, but there was a complicated meaning in his eyes. She actually saw a trace of dependence on his face. The expression comes.

She calmed down for a moment, raised her eyes and looked at Qin Yuwang, who had a solemn look on his face and refused to let Ye Niansi get on the fire blanket. She said unhurriedly, "But since you are so insistent, I also have other ideas." ," she raised her hand, with long and beautiful nails on her delicate fingers, and pointed around the main hall, "If you feel sorry for him, just go around my Qinmi Palace and bow three times. Then I am. You can reluctantly consider it so that your husband will not be tortured too ugly."

Xiao Qin expected that Tan Yuwang would not agree.It's not like she hadn't heard of her before. Her biological mother was a direct descendant of Emperor Gaozu Xiao Jue, and she held military power in the family. Such a noble status. In addition, she seemed to be someone who was not easy to mess with in the palace. Isn't the loss of face worse than killing her?
Qin Yuwang clenched her fists slightly, and after a while, she raised her almond-shaped eyes and asked, "If I can do it, I hope Concubine Qin can let my husband go."

The joking in Xiao Qin's eyes disappeared, her expression became cold, she raised her hand a little, and the four eunuchs around her carried the sedan back to the palace. She only said one sentence, "You can do it before you say it!"

A cool breeze blew in the courtyard, gently blowing over Tan Yu's eyes. Her expression became serious for a while. She felt the gaze from behind. She calmed down and turned around. There was a trace of lightness and carelessness in her eyebrows, and the corner of her lips He gently held his hand, stepped forward, tiptoed slightly, and said in Ye Niansi's ear, "Your Highness, don't worry, I will finish kneeling soon. When the time comes, I will take you home, don't be afraid."

After saying that, she took a deep breath and was about to turn around when she was held by a man's big hand behind her waist. Ye Niansi's black eyes swept across her face, and there was no complicated look in his cold eyes. He wrapped one hand around her He untied the moon-green belt around her waist. Under Tan Yuwang's doubtful eyes, he gently raised his hand, covered her eyes with the long, thin gauze belt, and tied a knot on the blue silk behind her head.

Ye Niansi let go of his hand, a cold light flashed in his black eyes, and there was no fear on his face. He leaned close to her ear, the ends of his eyes were slightly red, and said slowly, "Second Miss, when people feel pain, they will scream. I made a sound. The coals of fire are not painful, I can prove it to you. This is my calamity, and you don’t need to bear anything for me. If you really help me, it will deepen my calamity."

Qin Yuwang seemed to understand. She only felt Ye Niansi's long fingers drifting slightly on the tip of her nose, and then left a trace of orchid grass fragrance just like him. Then she fainted deeply, with the ringing in her ears all the time. She frowned at the sizzling sound, and unconsciously, two lines of clear tears soaked Na Ye Niansi's belt, and her beautiful features were reflected in the moonlight.
