The emperor's favorite useless concubine

Chapter 34 Emperor He Lanchun

At this time, Yi Renfang saw He Lanchun for the first time.

Seeing this, Yi Ren was quite surprised—she had met He Lanqin, He Lanxue and He Lanyou, and the He Lan family had such a good lineage, so she always thought that He Lanchun, as the emperor, must also be a rare big man Handsome guy, but the man in front of him, although he is majestic, is not as outstanding as the rest of the Helan family, at most he can only be called upright and attractive.

He looks so ordinary, he is the type who can be caught in a lot on the long street.

It's just that the arrogance and coldness between the brows are unprecedented for people in the long street.

"Everyone's family is flat." With a slight flick of the yellow robe, he sat down and stretched out his hands flatly.

Everyone got up, Yi Ren was half kneeling but not kneeling, but this time he got up even more quickly.

Xia Yu didn't have time to return to her seat, so she stood behind Yi Ren, waiting for the Holy Master to speak.

He Lanchun didn't speak, but just inspected the audience indifferently, and then, Eunuch Zhu, who was beside him, asked for instructions without losing the opportunity: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is asking to see you."

"Xuan." He Lanchun raised his hand sparsely, and a tall and imposing middle-aged man in mended clothes walked quickly to the front of the hall, knelt down, and shouted long live three times.

Yi Ren looked at the well-known prime minister, thought that he was Pei Ruochen's father, looked sideways, and found that he was indeed a rare handsome man, especially at this age, he was even more handsome than Pei Ruochen.

"Let's get down." He Lanchun said without any fumes, "I don't know what's going on with Qing's family?"

"Your Majesty, I received a report saying that someone is buying food and grass privately." Pei Linpu stepped forward and handed a pamphlet wrapped in yellow cloth to He Lanchun via Eunuch Zhu: "This is the evidence that I sent someone to collect. , there are indeed people who privately manufacture weapons and hoard food, and they may have evil intentions."

Hearing this, everyone was startled. Although they were frightened by the emperor's prestige and did not dare to speak, the whispers rose to the surface.

The crime of treason is no small matter.

"Who the hell is it?" He Lanchun didn't seem surprised, he just picked up his fingers and flipped through the booklet leisurely.

Rongxiu, who was sitting on the side, glanced at the pamphlet, her face changed suddenly, she bit her lower lip tightly, so as not to lose her composure on the spot.

"Jingchen conducted the trial overnight, and it has been found out that Zhang Qian from the household department handled this matter alone. As for who instigated him..." Pei Linpu was a little confused: "He committed suicide in fear of crime yesterday, and the minister can only use his usual All the people who were acquainted with him were arrested and brought to justice, and interrogated one by one, but these people are all elders and dignitaries in the court, so I came here to ask for an order, and hope that His Majesty can give me a handbook, without being bound by official rank."

"Who are there?"

"The right general Lin Feng, the national teacher Rong Buliu, the servant of the Ministry of War Yuke..." Pei Linpu paused, and continued: "There is also King Xiaoyao."

When he said this string of names, every time he said one, Rong Xiu's face turned pale, and in the end, it was almost bloodless, leaving only the upbringing of the queen, who was struggling there.

"There's no need for an interrogation." Before He Lanchun could make an order, a clear and pleasant male voice came from the right side of the seat.

Rongxiu's expression relaxed.He Lanchun, on the other hand, sighed almost inaudibly, his pupils were darkened, and he couldn't guess his emotions.

After the voice fell, He Lanxue walked to the center of the venue, brushed up the hem of her clothes, and knelt down.

There are so many noble families present, so many people sitting and standing, but none of them can be taller than He Lanxue. That height is an indescribable feeling. At that moment, he occupied all the light , even Pei Ruochen couldn't match his brilliance.

He Lanxue just knelt in front of He Lanchun, in full view of everyone, his waist was straight, and his eyes were bright and firm.

"It has nothing to do with other people." When he said this, He Lanxue kept looking at Rong Xiu, without hesitation, "Everything like this was done by my younger brother. My minister—willingly accept the punishment."

"Do you know what kind of crime this is, and what punishment should you receive?" He Lanchun asked in a deep voice.

"Intending to treason should be punished with death. The men of the palace will be executed, and the women will be slaves." He Lanxue still looked at Rongxiu, and replied unusually calmly.

"Since that's the case, you still have to bear it?" He Lanchun's voice became deeper and deeper, almost terrifying.

Even Yiren, who is the most insensitive, feels out of breath, and the others are even more silent.

"Yes." The answer was decisive.

Rong Xiu's face was pale, and her hands under the table were shaking violently.

But that beautiful face still maintains the dignity and reservedness of being a queen.

"There is also one of your family members present here. Do you know that as long as you are convicted of the crime, she will immediately change from the status of a princess to the lowest female slave in the palace." He Lanchun reminded slowly: "What are you going to do?" Explain to her?"

"She is not my family member." He Lanxue smiled and said: "I have divorced her. In fact, at this time, every female family member in the palace will receive a letter of divorce, and every family member will also be dismissed. Dismissed Fees are enough for them to spend the rest of their lives—now, the palace is empty."

"...You have been absurd for five years. No wonder there is no one left in Xiaoyao Palace, which was once full of talents." He Lanchun sighed lightly, and was about to take advantage of the situation to convict, when Yi Ren, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood up.

Everyone looked at this unlucky 'princess', not knowing whether to sympathize with her or stop her.

He Lanxue also stood up and looked at her.

Xia Yu, who was fighting with her for wine, had been standing next to her, but at this moment he tugged at Yi Ren's sleeve, hoping that she would be wise and safe, and not fall into the trap of herself.

Yi Ren just turned his head and glanced at him lightly, then continued walking forward.

Xia Yu looked at her inexplicably, and gradually, his expression became extremely complicated, and he didn't know whether it was admiration or regret.

"You don't need to ask me why. As a princess, but you like someone else, this king will naturally want to divorce you." He Lanxue passed the initial shock, and before Yiren could speak, she quickly uttered words to stop her.I was quite annoyed in my heart: others were afraid to avoid it, but she was so stupid that she couldn't even protect herself.

Yi Ren couldn't refute him, but she didn't realize what a strong reason this was. Her thought was simple: "I don't want to rely on being your princess, but I just think that I should bear something with you."

The figure of He Lanxue just now was so lonely, as if she wanted to use her own power to bear the loneliness of the entire sky.

Stand alone.

Yi Ren is a person who understands kindness. Even a dog will stand by his master's side in times of difficulty, let alone a person?
Yi Ren is not smart and doesn't know how to balance, but she knows what should be done and what should not be done.

That is the principle of being human.

He Lanxue didn't expect Yi Ren to answer like this, she was startled when she heard the words, her eyes flickered, it was extremely quiet and fierce.

What is morality?

There are so many sons of sages and sages who have read poetry and books, but how many of them can do it?
Yi Ren got closer and closer.Finally, it stopped in front of He Lanxue, shoulder to shoulder with him.

It was strange, standing beside such a magnificent He Lanxue, Yi Ren didn't feel a bit inferior by comparison.They seemed so well matched.

"Ruochen, Yi Ren will leave it to you." To everyone's surprise, He Lanxue suddenly turned her head, looked at Pei Ruochen, and confessed.

Pei Ruochen was not surprised at all, but just nodded lightly, "Don't worry."

The promise between people, sometimes three to five years, still can not be at ease.Sometimes, just a few words can save life and death.

He Lanxue and Pei Ruochen had been friends and enemies for many years, but at the last moment, he was the one he could trust.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, a little confused about the situation.

Interested people can't help guessing those rumors in the past, combined with the current situation, so many rumors have been derived.

At this moment, He Lanyou was terrified by his third brother's affairs, and couldn't care about other things, just stared blankly.

But Yiren quit, still stubbornly standing where he was, refusing to speak or leave.

Pei Ruochen hesitated for a moment, and resolutely stepped forward, ready to pull her away, but unexpectedly, Yi Ren suddenly raised his head, looked at He Lanxue, and said, "I won't abandon you."

Because, you are my tree.

Others don't understand this sentence, but He Lanxue understands it.

He Lanxue showed off his face and smiled. It was the first time he smiled since he stood up. The smile was so sincere and brilliant, "Fool."

He said, and then he shot like lightning, quickly hitting Yiren's acupuncture points.

Pei Ruochen stepped forward and supported Yi Ren's limp body.

He Lanxue didn't talk to Yiren anymore, he knew that Pei Ruochen had already taken over, so he was relieved.

Then, he turned around casually, bowed his hands to He Lanchun on the stage, and waited for him to deal with it.

The loneliness on his face has been swept away, replaced by a pride that no one looks at.

After all, he was not betrayed by everyone.

"King Xiaoyao intends to rebel. I have decided to sentence him to exile in the northern part of the country and never return to Beijing." He Lanchun watched the drama in front of him expressionlessly, and then stated his verdict.

He Lanyou's face changed when he heard the words, and he was about to get up to intercede for his third brother, but he happened to meet He Lanxue's gaze - a blocking gaze.Calm, calm eyes.

Then, He Lanxue took a last look at Rong Xiu.

Rong Xiu remained calm, but her face was as white as a ghost.

He Lanxue nodded at her, her eyes were gentle, but no longer affectionate as before.

His love for her had already turned into a demon, and now, he had sacrificed everything he had, even his life, to commemorate this love.

He Lanxue has a clear conscience.

When she left, He Lanxue didn't look like a prisoner at all, she was still the king and grandson playing in the world, with a beautiful face and a rainbow-like aura, strolling leisurely in the courtyard, wearing white clothes, and the unintentional amorous feelings from the corners of her eyes, which made everyone present A lady of every family is crazy about it.

In a daze, there was only a little turned up robe left at the gate of the garden, and He Lanxue, who was no longer the Xiaoyao King, disappeared.

He Lanchun also stood up, his cold expression was not touched at all, "Go ahead."

Before the words were finished, He Lanchun had already left the banquet, followed by Queen Rongxiu's departure, He Lanyou followed closely.

The members of the royal family left one after another, and the people below naturally couldn't sit still, and they all retreated. The royal garden, which was still so prosperous just now, was left in a blink of an eye, leaving only the leftovers and the maids who tidied up in twos and threes.

The bright moon hangs high, silent and silent.shine.

And the once prosperous and powerful Celestial Kingdom fell into an unprecedented predicament on that day.
