Lady Changning

Chapter 203 The Manic Huangfu Shenqian

Zimu took Xi Changning's request and returned to the small courtyard hidden by their group. This courtyard was let out by a Hu merchant, and they pretended to be a Hu merchant to inquire about any available news in Hucheng.

"What did Chang Ning say?"

Xi Lin has been anxiously waiting for Zimu's news. They are here not only for Xi Changning, but also for the affairs of the Hudi in the Western Regions.

"Take her away. What is my brother doing now?"

Zimu suddenly fell into a dilemma, and the only person he could trust was Xi Lin.

Seeing Zimu's embarrassed look, Xi Lin couldn't say it out loud, Zimu, no, it should be He Lianhao's move.The fact that they appeared unexpectedly by Xi Changning was not because they were early, but because of something else.

The king of the Western Regions was dissatisfied with the tribute to the Central Plains court and the distribution of land, and even listened to He Lianhao's slander, and now he is eyeing the Central Plains.

He Lianhao is ten years older than He Lianmu. When he was still a teenager, he and his mother killed He Lianmu and her mother. Now He Lianhao's mother pleaded guilty for the child. He Lianhao regards He Lianmu as a thorn in his side.

This trip to the Central Plains was He Lianhao's words, saying that He Lianmu had been an official and businessman in the Central Plains, and he could sneak in to find out the news. Mother, Xing Xing and He Lianbao threatened their lives, forcing them both to submit.

"Didn't you tell Changning about the current situation?" Xi Lin worried about He Lianbao and his own country at the same time.

Whatever the reason, such a war is entirely avoidable.

Zimu shook her head, maybe Xi Lin didn't see Xi Changning's appearance, and when she saw it, she knew those words were not something she could bear alone.

"Take me to see Changning."

"Xi Lin can see her, but if you see her, you may be as speechless as I am. This matter involves the lives of too many people, and there is no need for her to bear it. As the son of the prime minister, you may be able to find your father."

Xi Lin is suspicious, Zimu's most trusted person can be said to be Xi Changning, that's why he hides in Hucheng for half a month and waits for the opportunity. Now that he meets Xi Changning, he actually intends to give up this idea.

It seems that Xi Changning must meet.

It was night, Xi Changning called Mo Lian, hoping that she could go to bed.

"Empress, what are you talking about?" Mo Lian was at a loss.

"I am very clear about the Hucheng mansion. The officials also came to tell me today that there is no other house planned, except for you and me."

That is to say, the emperor must live in the room of one of them. This is also a kind of flattery for officials, deliberately flattering.Xi Changning made an appointment with Zimu and Xi Lin today, and Huangfu Shenqian would definitely not be able to come.

As for Mo Lian, she has been unknown for a long time, presumably her position in Huangfu Shenqian's heart is no longer that of a court lady.

"Niang Niang, you clearly know that the emperor loves you so much and brought you here because of..." Your heart.

"Mo Lian, you have done enough, the rest is what you should do as a woman. He is your husband, and I have no intention or intention."

Xi Changning felt that he was not very old, so it was ridiculous to say such old-fashioned words, it was just that he had experienced too much.

Mo Lian looked at Xi Changning, who was still dressed in red.The color has never changed, flirtatious, her eyes are also conveying something to her, Mo Lian raised her trembling hand to hold Xi Changning's, hoping that Xi Changning can help her make a decision.

Xi Changning patted the back of her hand comfortingly. No one can accompany anyone on this road. It is enough for her to love him.

"There's a jug of wine on the table, and he won't drink it."

Mo Lian knelt down and kowtowed to Xi Changning three times. At the beginning, she also told Yan Xiufeng something she shouldn't have said, and let Xi Changning go because of a sudden thought. This step exceeded everyone's expectations.

She got up and took the jug of wine from the table.

As soon as Mo Lian left, Xi Changning summoned the maids outside the door.

"Tell the emperor, I'm really tired, go to bed first. I don't need to come here tonight."

The palace ladies are already used to seeing the emperor at such a time when the empress chooses a date. Anyway, as long as the empress behaves like this, the emperor will go to Concubine Lian to inquire about news, and most likely she will stay at Concubine Lian tonight.

The maid agreed, Xi Changning blew out the candles in the room, hid herself in the darkness, waiting for something.

Not long after the maid left, footsteps sounded outside the door, Xi Changning knew who it was, looked at the figure reflected on the window paper, hesitated, and finally chose to leave.

Why didn't Huangfu Shenqian understand that he couldn't keep her, but he was too afraid of losing her, so he would rather play the most humble role in this relationship, giving her what she asked for.

After most of the night, two familiar figures walked out of the room.

It was only under the dim moonlight that Xi Lin understood what Zimu said. Why was a person tortured like this?Although Xi Changning was indifferent before, at least he still had the posture that a young girl should have. Now the person he sees seems to be nothing but a skeleton in clothes.

"Long time no see, big brother."

"Changning." Xi Lin choked up.

Now is not the time to be sad, Zimu stepped forward and pushed Xi Lin, and Xi Lin reacted, no longer sad, but to discuss things.

Because He Lianhao is a matter of Zimu's family, there is no way to be as normal as Xi Lin said.

After talking about the cause and effect of the incident, I didn't notice any movement on Xi Changning's face. After everything was finished, the whole room fell into silence again, and the slight breathing sound seemed even heavier.

"Why didn't you tell me clearly?" Xi Changning was the first to break the silence.

Xi Lin was not talking, apparently Xi Changning was blaming Zimu.

Zimu didn't say anything, which was in line with his character, but it would be wrong not to speak now.Xi Lin couldn't stand it anymore, so he went up and pushed Zimu.

"No matter what, I'll take you away."

Xi Changning shrank back and hid himself in the darkness. The three of them pondered for a long time but couldn't think of any connection between these two things, and they didn't know how to solve them.

"It's not difficult."

Xi Changning had long been prepared to smash the jar, and now that such an emergency happened, it might not be a bad thing.
Zimu and Xi Lin glanced at each other, since Xi Changning could say such a thing, it was reasonable.The two of them stopped talking and listened to Xi Changning's explanation.

"Looking at our identities alone, we really don't know what to do, but if the three of us work together, this matter can be done."

Xi Changning briefly talked about her current situation, and she also told her all the plans she had been planning to complete alone, and then asked Zimu to talk about their thoughts, and it was easy to find a connection. Those people brought into the game.

"Then what should we do?"

"I have already disclosed the matter of Xi Hanxue to Xi Lingyan. It won't be long before the Empress Dowager will know. Xi Lingyan will not let such a credit fall on me. I will definitely investigate it myself. You should investigate Yan Xiufeng and separate Yan Xiufeng and Xi Hanxue."

"Do you know how much crime Yan Xiufeng will bear if he succeeds? Will he let it go?"

Xi Changning took a look at Zimu, he would only go to the point of no return if he was not good at giving up, and he would be able to relieve the hatred in her heart.

Xi Changning stayed in Hucheng for two days before returning to the palace.Mo Lian has also truly become the emperor's woman, which can be seen from Mo Lian's face.

Xi Changning didn't feel guilty about this matter, but Huangfu Shenqian felt guilty towards Xi Changning, because some things were not what he wanted, and for Mo Lian, he didn't want to hurt her, so he kept the initial distance , now that he woke up from her side, he was inexplicably at a loss, but it was Mo Lian who comforted him in the end.

Many things have been changing beyond expectations in the later time, such as the impact of Yan Xiufeng's words on Huangfu Shenqian.

Yan Xiufeng hasn't been to the small courtyard for so long, so long that Xi Hanxue can only stare at the surrounding world of the courtyard to spend the day. Occasionally, she will switch identities with Xi'er and go out for a walk, but she is still not herself, and she is not seen.

On this day, Yan Xiufeng came to the lower courtyard again. Although he brought bad news, he was about to get married. The woman was just a young girl from a merchant's family. In this way, her status was not comparable to her at all. Unfortunately, she was no longer what she used to be.

On the other hand, he also told Xi Hanxue about the affairs in the palace, which was unbelievably peaceful, but the only thing that seemed to be uneasy was the marriage between Princess Jing and Huangfu Zimian, which had not been decided for a long time.

"I think that although Xi Changning seems to be helping them, in fact no one wants them to fail more than her. If the emperor understands this matter, I am afraid that neither of them will have good fruit."

Xi Hanxue is an outsider and a former player in the game. There are many things that you only need to listen to to understand the main points.

"I don't need you to say this, I understand it, otherwise why did the emperor ask me to monitor them? He must have understood this, but he didn't do anything, he must be reluctant to bear Xi Changning."

Xi Hanxue doesn't understand what's so good about Xi Changning, why all the men surround her, her indifferent appearance keeps all emotions away, if she were a man, she wouldn't want to get close to her, but those people just treat her Love is added.

The more Xi Hanxue thought about it, the more she couldn't swallow this breath. She glanced at Yan Xiufeng. Now that he is the emperor's confidant, he naturally doesn't care about these things.

After thinking about it, she couldn't vent her anger on him, because many things needed Yan Xiufeng to do, so her body and tone softened.

"This Xi Changning will be a disaster sooner or later. We didn't get rid of her before, but now we have something to do?"

"What idea did you come up with? Now that I'm living a peaceful life, don't cause trouble for me." Yan Xiufeng said to Xi Hanxue that this was just lust for beauty, and there were some things that the palace couldn't figure out, so he found someone to find a solution, but Not trying to get into trouble.

"Young Master Yan, General Yan, are you really not worried? You have seen things in the palace. Xi Lingyan must find a way to get rid of Xi Changning. Why? Because Xi Changning can influence one person, that is the emperor. If she I didn't like you that day, so you..."

Xi Hanxue touched Yan Xiufeng's chest, with clear intentions. Yan Xiufeng was easy to be fooled by this point. He cared too much about his position with the emperor. After all, he followed this humble third prince without anyone at the beginning. Now he is in the palace with great difficulty. There is no way that Xi Changning can gain the upper hand by mixing up and down.

What's more, he himself understands that Xi Changning hated him when he first saw him. In the past few years, he hasn't seen any movement from her, so he let down his vigilance. After all, what can a woman in the harem do.

But with Xi Hanxue's mention, plus all the previous things, even if Xi Changning has nothing to do, this alone is enough to kill many people.

He looked at Xi Hanxue, this woman still doesn't know what it means to keep her own place, she only wants to take revenge on Xi Changning, if she continues like this, she can't stay by her side anymore.But now he still needs her advice, because at the same time, the sisters of the Xi family naturally know more than this man.

"Since Hanxue is thinking about me so much, then can you tell me what to do?"

"If you can solve the emperor's worries and problems, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone? Break up Xi Changning and Huangfu Zimian, and if Xi Changning still says what he wants, you won't be willing. Do you understand?"

Yan Xiufeng didn't understand what he heard, so Xi Hanxue leaned up and whispered in his ear.

The two of them were too focused on calculating others, so they didn't realize that a pair of brown eyes on the roof were looking at them coldly. They could only hear a little bit of their plot, but not enough to know everything.

Huangfu Shenqian sent away all his entourage and stumbled to Zhongcui Palace alone. He was a little helpless, but he didn't know who to tell was the right one. He was the emperor, and there was nothing the emperor couldn't get.

Mo Lian saw Huangfu Shenqian appearing in Zhongcui Palace without any notification, she saw his distraught appearance and his hands dripping with blood, she sent away the palace servants around him and hurried up.

Whether she was a court lady or a concubine, she had never seen such a embarrassed Huangfu Shenqian.

"What's the matter with you, Your Majesty?"

She dug out the medicine box in the palace and bandaged it up for him, but she didn't get any response to her questions.

Without warning, one hand pinched Mo Lian's jaw tightly, his eyes were full of distrust and betrayal, as if he was about to swallow Mo Lian alive.

She trembled and didn't dare to say a word, and looked at him with tears in her eyes, with a clear conscience for him.

"Why did you help Changning betray me? Why did you find him?"

Huangfu Shenqian's words made Mo Lian's whole face turn pale. She thought that this matter was covered up very well, but she didn't expect to be found out.

She trembled her lips, afraid to look at him again.But such a default made him unacceptable. He trusted these two women very much, and now he was betrayed like this, he really couldn't accept it.

When Yan Xiufeng told him such news, he was even more restless than now. He crushed the teacup with his bare hands, and the shards pricked his hands full of blood. He hurried to ask for confirmation, just for a comfort, but it was in vain.

"Even you think he is the only one who is worthy of her?"

Mo Lian shook her head quickly, now she didn't know what to say, she couldn't even speak.

Huangfu Shenqian ignored the wound on his hands, grabbed her shoulders with both hands, almost lifted her up, and then threw her heavily on the soft couch.

hiss--

Mo Lian looked at the crazy man in front of him in horror. He would never treat Xi Changning like this, because he was reluctant and too afraid that this would make Xi Changning stay away from him, so he could only vent his anger on her. body.

The clothes on her body had been turned into pieces, and Mo Lian's tears were streaming down her cheeks. She acquiesced to his insult, as long as it could calm him down, she would do it no matter what.

"Aren't you still willing to talk? Why do you want to?"

The blood seeped through the gauze, dripping onto Mo Lian's bare skin, and then he touched it brutally, as if the blood had ooze from Mo Lian's body.

"what!"

The rough treatment made Mo Lian feel that she was being torn apart. She cried, but couldn't break free. In the end, she could only bite her lip and bear it.

After venting, Huangfu Shenqian sat beside Mo Lian helplessly with his upper body bare, covered her with a quilt guiltily, and patted his head in distress.

"Don't do this, I don't blame you. But please don't treat the empress like this. She can't bear so much anymore."

He smiled wryly. He didn't know that Mo Lian was so loyal before. When she got up, the quilt slipped to her chest and was held tightly. The bruises on her shoulders showed how rough he was.

"I will never give up what I want, and it will be the same this time."

He withdrew his pitiful eyes, looked into the distance indifferently, got up and put on his clothes, and walked out of the palace.Only Mo Lian was left crying in the hall.

Huangfu Zimian has always wondered why so many people are so concerned about the matter between him and Princess Jing, as if he and Princess Jing get married, everything can be solved easily.

Even the emperor urged him so impatiently, and there was some irresistible air in his tone.

"Zi Mian, you are the older brother and now you are not sure about the marriage, why is that?"

Although the atmosphere of the conversation was the same as before, Huangfu Zimian felt extremely depressed, and couldn't even utter negative words from before.

"Your Majesty, I thought we had reached a conclusion before. It is impossible for Princess Jing and I."

Huangfu Zimian still firmly rejected the matter, but as the emperor, Huangfu Shenqian stared at him without blinking, as if he wanted to see something from him.

Huangfu Shenqian got up and walked in front of him. The person in front of him was the closest person who accompanied him in childhood. He had already been hurt by Huangfu Zimian once, and finally brought him back on the edge of his conscience. He always wanted to give him the best. Okay, so we've made him the best lie ever.

But in the end, a fork appeared on the issue of Xi Changning, and a difficult choice appeared.

"What if I have to ask you to marry Princess Jing?"

Huangfu Shenqian's attitude was tough, even with a threatening tone, he was trying to force Huangfu Zimian to accept this fact.But he didn't expect Huangfu Zimian to be so hard.

Huangfu Zimian knelt down and was still unwilling to accept such a marriage. Based on the emperor's point, all this happened is definitely related to his real memory.

"Please think carefully, Your Majesty, Princess Jing will not be happy."

"You are still you. You could disappear before, but now you can't go anywhere. In the end, you can only accept it willingly."

Huangfu Shenqian turned his back and didn't look at him, as if declaring war, he didn't dare to look at Huangfu Zimian too much for fear that his heart would soften.

Huangfu Zimian said his farewell and left, but his heart reminded himself over and over again to be careful, he is not a person without feelings, and he has seen through how many lies are full of lies in Nuo Da's palace.

But what Huangfu Shenqian said to him before leaving still rang in his ears, or the warning was closer.

"Don't try to find out your so-called memory. It may not make you feel better than the one you have come here now."

It turned out that Huangfu Shenqian already knew that he had been searching for his real memory. It seemed that he was already being watched, but he didn't feel it at all.

But at the same time, it also explained one thing, what is Huangfu Shenqian afraid of, afraid that he will recall everything, what kind of past does that memory have?
