Slave to Queen: One Night Bride

Chapter 394 The World of One Man 2
Yue Pengju let go of his wife's hand, and Hua Rong handed him the packed package, which contained some winter clothes and toiletries: "Pengju, it's cold in winter, and these are all useful. This other , it was brought to Zhang Xian by Senior Sister Gao..."

A package was so heavy that Yue Pengju could barely hold it, so he put his arms around his wife: "Sister Seventeen, you must live well..."

Hua Rong couldn't bear it anymore, and burst into tears.

Outside the door, Yang Yizhong saw that Yue Pengju hadn't come out for a long time and couldn't drink anymore. He was not afraid that Yue Pengju would run away, but he was afraid that Yue Pengju would commit suicide.If Yue Pengju committed suicide, how could he turn to Qin Hui and Zhang Jun?He stood up and asked Ma Chao, "Why hasn't Mr. Yue come out yet?"

Ma Chao bowed, but he didn't answer, only heard a faint voice behind him: "Thank you, Brother Yang, waiting for a long time. I will follow Brother Yang on the road."

Yang Yizhong heaved a sigh of relief, seeing Yue Pengju walking towards the empty sedan chair, he couldn't help following and lowered his voice: "Mr. Yue, why don't you follow the example of Mr. Han?"

Yue Pengju shook his head: "Thank you, Brother Yang, for your kindness."

Yang Yizhong let out a long sigh, Yue Pengju fought against the Jin people in the north, went to Dongting in the south, and Yang Wei died in the north and south. However, he died before he left the army. Can it last?

Yue Peng lifted the car curtain and sat down firmly.Yang Yizhong waved his hand, and the sedan chair set off.

After walking a few steps, he quietly opened the curtain, only to see behind him, his wife staggered after her, and fell down on the snowy ground crying. A ball of white snow, walking a long way, she still knelt down on the snow, but the crying was no longer heard...

"Sister Seventeen, I have failed you in this life, and I will never fail you in the next life!"

He clenched his fists tightly, his burning eyes almost shattered and melted all the bones in his body...Sister Seventeen, little tiger head...I have spent half my life as a soldier, loyal and courageous, in exchange for my wife and children. Can't keep it.

Knowing this earlier, what's the use of loyalty?Who should you be loyal to?

If there is an afterlife, one's own destiny must be grasped by oneself, and it is definitely not in such a position to be slaughtered by others.

As soon as Yue Pengju entered Dali Prison, he was locked in a room alone.There are not many prisoners here, and those who can enter Dali Temple Prison are all political prisoners.Next door to him, Zhang Xian, Yu Peng, Sun Ge and other six or seven deployments have already experienced severe torture, and saw the coach imprisoned. Under this heavy psychological blow, Zhang Xian, who was tortured the most, has already Unable to hold on, he climbed in front of the iron window and wailed: "God doesn't bless Da Song, God doesn't bless Da Song..."

He screamed three times in a row, and finally passed out due to the unbearable pain from his injury.Yue Pengju ran to the window and looked at his subordinate brothers who were going through life and death. The strong anger in his heart was getting deeper and deeper, almost breaking through his brain and breaking through this prison behind bars.

Yu Peng looked up to the sky and sighed, without saying a word.

Yue Pengju stretched out his hand and shook the bars, but didn't say a word.

The official in charge of the presiding trial is called He Zhu. They have long admired Yue Peng's name, and they actually held some sympathy in their hearts, and their attitude was very polite: "Yue Xianggong, now I am accusing you of three crimes. , The third is to accuse the king. Can you plead guilty?"

Yue Pengju said in a deep voice: "You can tell Qin Hui that I can confess my guilt, but Zhang Xian and others must be released first. The day they are free is the time for me to confess my guilt and bring justice to justice."

He Zhu looked at this untenable "criminal evidence" and couldn't continue, so he couldn't bear to do something wrong, and secretly paid out of his own pocket to improve the food for Yue Pengju and others.

At the other end of the prison in Dali Temple, there is a special female relative, Princess Tianwei.This is the first woman imprisoned in Dali Prison for many years - a fake princess.

Zhao Deji's edict has been issued, and within three days, the fake princess will be killed in the Wumen vegetable market.When the edict came out, the world was in an uproar.Because of the great involvement caused by this matter, people have suspected: If it is a fake princess, why can't the eunuchs recognize it?She was already fifteen or sixteen years old when she left the palace. It is impossible for a girl of this age to have a fundamental change in appearance. Why can't the emperor recognize his own sister?

The common people rushed to tell each other, talking a lot, the female family members in the palace couldn't sit still, even Zhang Yingying, Wu Jinnu, etc. were all trembling, as if in a dark circle.

However, none of them dared to intervene in the emperor's order. As long as they wanted to stay in the palace and be favored by the emperor, the most important thing was to be wise and protect themselves.Didn't you see that Xiao Liu, who is so beloved and trusted, was kicked by Zhao Deji for some reason until his whole body was covered in bruises and purples.

At this time, the three favorite concubines were eating with Zhao Deji. Zhao Deji caressed his heart and kept sighing: "Oh, I think I am magnanimous, why are these people all white-eyed wolves? A high-ranking official is rich and rich, but she still has to be rebellious. When Tianwei returns, I treat her closer than my own sister, but she is a counterfeit..."

A companion is like a tiger. The concubines know that he is acting, but who dare not go along with him?Zhang and Wu were saddened by the death of a rabbit and a fox. They witnessed Wanwan's tragic death, and now they are Tianwei again, and they wanted to ask for a favor. Ask politics.The two of them didn't dare to talk too much anymore, not only that, but they also had to blindly praise the officials for their wisdom and justice, see through the true face of the fake princess, and return the palace to peace.

The continuous rain and snow weather made the prison as frozen as an ice cellar.There were screams and screams from the next door, all of which were the sounds of eunuchs and palace servants being tortured.

These people were all eunuchs who had served Tianwei or welcomed Tianwei back.When Tianwei returned, these old people naturally came forward to identify the authenticity of the princess.Especially Feng Yi, he had served Tianwei's mother in the early years and was familiar with Tianwei's mother and daughter, so when Tianwei came back, he thought that rare goods could be lived in, and he respected Tianwei very much.

With a thunderbolt from the blue sky, Tianwei suddenly became a fake princess. He naturally refused to admit it desperately, and found a lot of evidence to prove that the princess was real.However, the more evidence is found, the more severe the punishment will be.Zhang Quwei and others had always been at odds with him, and didn't mention him.When Feng Yi was beaten to pieces, he was suddenly blessed, and secretly bribed a young eunuch who came to visit him to find out what the officials said.

When he found out the news, he immediately changed his words, and at the beginning of the next torture to extract a confession, he kept kowtowing: "The little one deserves death... the crime deserves death... the princess is fake... the little one was greedy for the princess Bribery... and she gave a false testimony for her, this is a fake princess... a fake princess..."

As soon as Feng Yi changed his words, all the palace people immediately changed their words one after another, accusing them of accepting bribes from the "fake princess".

The officials in charge of the review were very satisfied with the result, took their paintings and confessions, and immediately reported to Zhao Deji.

Tianwei lay on the straw mat, without water or rice for three days, in a daze, she heard the screams from the next door, and then the screams subsided, she understood that next, it was her turn.During these three days, she didn't know whether it was morning or night. In her dream, it was her mother and concubine, her best sisters, and even little Lu Wenlong.Vaguely, he thinks of Ma Su, that pirate, but does he still remember that there is such a person as himself?Tears continued to flow, and in the end, the eyes were completely swollen and could not be opened.

With a "squeak", the cell door opened, two eunuchs lit lanterns, and a jailer in front had two large bowls of dishes, a bottle of wine, and a bowl of rice on a tray in his hand.Tianwei barely opened her eyes, her heart was shocked, she realized that this was the "last supper", and after eating this meal, she was about to step on the door of hell.

The jailer yelled: "Food is here..."

Tian Wei sat up, her eyes dimmed, she stretched out her trembling hands, tightly grasped the hot rice bowl, but immediately put it down, picked up the flagon on the ground, put it to her mouth, and drank it in one gulp.As soon as the spicy wine entered her throat, she coughed a few times, but her body became much warmer.

A person came in without a sound, and everyone retreated, leaving only two bright lanterns, which clearly illuminated everything in the cell and the people on the opposite side.

"Tianwei."

Tianwei raised her head and looked at him indifferently.In this world, I have no father, no mother, no relatives, no reason.The son-in-law has already been implicated, and the whole family has been demoted to common people and ridiculed by others. In order to avoid further embarrassment, they dare not come to visit again.Before he died, no one visited him!Even the person in front of him is not considered his "relative"—not anymore.

"Tianwei!"

"What else does His Majesty order?"

Zhao Deji sat down in front of her, suddenly stretched out his hand, and rolled up her sleeve, revealing the scar on her wrist.Tianwei, this is the real Tianwei!

He let out a long sigh: "Tianwei, you know, I have no other choice. The Queen Mother insists on your death. I can't disobey her..."

What is this?Tell the truth?But what is the use of this truth?
She replied indifferently: "Your Majesty, the prison is filthy and must not tarnish His Majesty's nobility. Please leave."

He said eagerly: "Tianwei, I didn't want to kill you. Not at all, you are my only sibling..."

Tianwei stared at his eyes, trying to see from his eyes how much sincerity and how much was false.

"Tianwei, if you want to survive, you can rely on brother Jiu..."

"What chance do I have of surviving?"

"As long as you persuade Rong'er to follow me and give birth to a prince for me, you will be a great hero. I will settle down with you... Although your princess status is not guaranteed, I will definitely agree to another Settle you down, let you hide your name, and live a life of prosperity and wealth..."

Tears flowed from Tianwei's red and swollen eyes again, and the last extravagant hope in her heart disappeared.Just staring at the person opposite, Brother Jiu, how could this devil be his brother?

Zhao Deji thought she was moved, so he asked, "Tianwei, have you thought it through?"

"Think clearly!" Tianwei's voice has gradually become hoarse, "Jingkang disaster, the ancestral temple city is broken, the last words of Taizu's official family are announced to the world, and the ministers and scholars who wrote the letter are not allowed to be killed. Your Majesty, can you still return?" Remember?"

Zhao Deji was very displeased: "So what?"

"If you kill Yue Xianggong, you are violating the oath of the Taizu's official family. If you disobey your ancestors, you will definitely be punished by heaven."

Zhao Deji said in a deep voice: "Tianwei, you should think about how you can live one more day! How can other people's lives be as precious as your own?"

Naturally, in his eyes, the lives of all the people in the world are less precious than the life of Zhao Deji alone.Life and death are up for grabs, the clouds are turned upside down, it's the turn of the despicable, who is his opponent?
