Rebirth: Houmen's Wife

Chapter 159: Suspicion ②

It seems that everyone has figured out what they should do and who they should meet at this moment, as if everything should be hidden in this dark world.

Night is always accompanied by blackness, it is warm and humid enough to grow anything, whether it is hatred, conspiracy, or betrayal...

However, everyone ignored it, and everyone didn't pay attention to it. The old emperor who paid attention to him didn't rest at this moment, and saw his eyes bursting out like sharp knives.

Under the service of Eunuch Liu, the old emperor drank a bowl of something dark, wiped the corner of his mouth, and signaled the person kneeling on the ground to answer with his eyes.

Eunuch Liu stood obediently by the side of the old emperor, looking at his own toes, and did not look at the person kneeling under His Highness.

"How is the matter going?" The old emperor's voice contained the peculiar oldness of his age.

The person kneeling at the bottom didn't raise his head because of the old emperor's question. He was still kneeling on the ground respectfully and honestly, with his head bowed.

"If you go back to the emperor, the matter has been done according to the emperor's instructions."

At this time, Su Shiwan, who was holding both hands by a person and was hiding on the beam in the old emperor's hall as a girl on the beam, frowned, "Is the matter over?"What is it?Wait... this voice, this voice is so familiar, I must have heard it somewhere.

Su Shiwan couldn't help but move her head down, wanting to see who the person kneeling on the ground was answering, but the masked man in black who grabbed her from behind tightly tightened her shoulders.

Looking back, there was a glimmer of warning flashing from the exposed eyes covered with black cloth.

Su Shiwan had no choice but to hide the fear in her heart at this time. Was the glimmer of light that shot out from the eyes of the person who grabbed her just now a killing intent?

The body trembled uncontrollably.

At this moment, the person kneeling on the ground with his head lowered seemed to have sensed something, and looked slightly towards the hiding place of Su Shiwan and the others, but he didn't look up.

Both Su Shiwan and the person holding Su Shiwan behind her couldn't help feeling nervous, don't be discovered.Obviously, this old emperor is not as useless and stupid as outsiders make him out to be!

This is a kind of intuition, the intuition makes Su Shiwan's palms sweat finely, damn it, why should I join in, I will avenge myself, and take the money I earned and go away, why? He wanted to run to look for Gu Lezhen, but before he and Gu Lezhen came to have a word, they were forcibly arrested here to listen to the corner.Still risking his life to listen to the corner, he is really crazy.

The so-called anger in the heart, so I don't feel so afraid of the people behind me, Su Shiwan turned her head bluntly, and glared angrily at the man in black who was grabbing her.

"Get up and talk."

After a long while, the old emperor spoke again. ,

The person kneeling on the ground who answered the question moved slightly and stood up. However, his head was still lowered and he did not raise his head. This made Su Shiwan's hope that had just been ignited once again dashed.

I couldn't help but murmured, "Why can't I still see my face!"

The man in black behind him was moved, and he freed his hand to cover Su Shiwan's mouth quickly. It was almost instinctive. Su Shiwan cried out in surprise because of the sudden movement of the man in black, and the voice was in her throat. Rolling back and forth, but was strangled in the middle of the road by the frightening light emitted by the man in black.

At this time, Eunuch Liu couldn't help raising his head slightly, his eyes casually wandering in every corner of the hall.

| "What's the matter?" The old emperor seemed to realize the difference between this Eunuch Liu and that person, and asked aloud.

Eunuch Liu looked at the person who had just stood up, shook his head with a smile, and said, "This old slave is thinking, it's getting late, the emperor should rest, and the emperor didn't rest well during the journey, or... "..."

The old emperor shook his head, indicating to Eunuch Liu that there is no need to talk, but his eyes stayed on the other person in the palace, "Where is the thing? Is A Le real..."

The man paused in his heart, took out a shrinkable box from his arms, held it high and handed it out, "The emperor will understand after reading this."

Eunuch Liu hurried down, but the box in the man's hand was opened, and the contents came out, walked to the old emperor, and displayed it in front of the old emperor.

Su Shiwan stared intently, her almond eyes narrowed slightly, so that she could see clearly what Eunuch Liu was coming out of.

Isn't that a portrait?

So familiar!

Following the movements of Eunuch Liu's hands, Su Shiwan also saw clearly what was on the portrait. It was a portrait of a woman, and the picture was very simple. It was just a picture of a woman holding a round fan and looking slightly into the distance. portrait.

It should be that the painter drew with his own imagination, not on the spot when he saw the woman with his own eyes.

However, these are not the main point, but the main point is the portrait, Su Shiwan is 100% sure that she has seen it, and she even touched it with her own hands.

Finally, Su Shiwan also knew who the man who kept his head down was who answered the old emperor's words, no wonder she was so familiar with his voice.

Isn't that person the one who protected him for a while?

Isn't he the protector that Dongyang Rui arranged for him before his death?

And isn't the woman in that portrait the one that Yu Danman said Dongyang Rui had loved deeply for a lifetime, and even the one who looked for the similarities of that woman in all the women she married?

It is said that she is the current concubine of the Holy Majesty, Concubine Shuying.

Why did the emperor do everything possible to ask Miao Chuan to steal the treasures of Dongyang Rui in Dongyang Mansion?Could it be that he already knew that Dongyang Rui liked his concubine?

In the quiet hall, Su Shiwan could clearly hear her own rapid breathing gradually due to nervousness and doubts, and the person who grabbed her seemed not surprised at all, as if she had known it for a long time. At this time, her heartbeat, breathing Nothing unusual.

tick tock...

Where is the sound of water coming from?

Su Shiwan couldn't help but retract her squinting eyes to see the gaze of the man in black who was holding her behind her. She looked down again, only to see crystal clear tears flowing out of the old emperor's old eyes.

The tears were like the beginning of a rainy day, dripping drop by drop.

As if realizing that tears would wet the scroll, the old emperor moved the scroll away in a panic, but held it in front of him again as if reluctant to part with it.

"Xiaoying, my Xiaoying, I didn't expect that I would still see you. Are you a cruel picture scroll? Everything about your memories was burned, and I didn't leave any thoughts for me. Are you still alive?" You are blaming me!"

As the old emperor said, he held the scroll tightly to his heart, his voice hoarse with tears.

Eunuch Liu knelt down with distressed eyes, "My lord, my condolences, the dragon's body is important!"

"My Xiaoying is still blaming me. What use is this dilapidated body for me? Come and meet my Xiaoying sooner. I want to tell her about my difficulties. I didn't do it on purpose. I really didn't. On purpose... I really love her too!|"

"Yes, yes, yes... The emperor has a lot of difficulties. Presumably, the empress will also understand the emperor, but the emperor's daughter must not talk nonsense. This country needs you, and this little master still needs you. Cultivate your help!" Eunuch Liu said as his eyes turned red instantly, and there were still tears in them.

"Yes, yes, yes, I still want to pave a road of peace for my and Xiaoying's children, remove all obstacles in front of him, and let him be a real wise king, don't be like me, who is oppressed all over and cannot be free to do what you want to do.”

The emperor and Concubine Shu's child?Which prince is that?Why did I hear that Concubine Shuying never left a child for the emperor?During the period, he was criticized by all the officials because of the Seven Departments. How come he has a child again?

Su Shiwan's eyes flashed suspiciously.What exactly is going on?It seems that the old emperor is going to take some action to remove the obstacles in front of him?for whom?

There are too many things Su Shiwan can't know, it seems that she saw a little tail, but when Su Shiwan wanted to grab the tail and investigate it, it seemed to be her own illusion, as if she didn't know anything. ,

However, it never occurred to him that Miao Chuan, who had followed Dongyang Rui for many years and gained Dongyang Rui's deep trust, was actually the emperor's man.

When I used to read books, there were some miscellaneous essays on it, which said that some high-ranking people like to install their own people in the homes of ministers, and want to know the whereabouts and thoughts of each minister, anytime and anywhere. Have that rebellious heart.

Could it be that the old emperor is also such a person?

However, this doesn't seem to be the case. Obviously, all of this has something to do with the woman in the portrait, the concubine Shu who was all the rage in Beijing.

Just when all kinds of guesses and thoughts were flashing in Su Shiwan's mind like a large number of fireflies by the pond at night, the man in black who was holding Su Shiwan moved Su Shiwan to the beam, and he himself He let go of Su Shiwan's hand.

Su Shiwan hugged the beam with both hands nervously, afraid that if she fell down at this time, even if she didn't fall to her death, she would be found guilty of eavesdropping on the conversation between the emperor and this subordinate, and she would be implicated in the nine clans.

After all, the old emperor is a person who has seen the storm, and he was born in a high position since he was a child, so he quickly controlled his emotions.

At this time, the old emperor changed from the sad and fragile just now, and his face seemed to be engraved with the coldness of a blade...
