Chapter 26 Twenty-sixth white hair

Ticada neighs. The biling screens were closed tightly, the indoor curtains were drooping, and the candles in the white porcelain coiled dragon lanterns were burning vigorously, reflecting Jiang Chenyu's pupils as if they were on fire, becoming very, very bright. She lifted the crystal lampshade, clamped the wick with long-handled gold pliers, and then put the lampshade back, her movements were gentle, her eyebrows were half-closed, and she was careless and slow. And Jiang Zhong, standing in the middle of the hall a foot away, stared at her quietly. The room was quiet for a while. Until Huaijin came in with the tea in his hands, the fragrance of the best tea came along with the breeze, and his sweet voice broke the deadlock: "Master, this is the Daxi chrysanthemum tea brought back by Cheng Guo, please try it."

Jiang Zhong smiled and said: "Okay." After finishing speaking, he took a sip and said leisurely, "This taste is really nostalgic... I think it was more than ten years ago when I went to Cheng Guo to drink this kind of tea. ..." Jiang Chenyu pursed his lips and said, "My lord father wants to drink Cheng Guo's tea, but it's just a matter of one sentence. Could it be that the former city lord who was in power and made changes, didn't even bring some heartwarming gifts when he returned to Beijing to meet his teacher?" Will it?" Jiang Zhong was ridiculed by her, but he was not angry, but just smiled lightly: "Aren't you the most clear about whether he brought a heart-warming gift? In today's world, there is no gift that I like more than that."

Jiang Chenyu's hand holding the pliers stopped in the air, as if a fire was burning in the palm of his hand, it felt so hot that even the pliers would melt. The gift the father mentioned was—Ji Ying. It was clearly a crucial moment of negotiation, and any cowardice would become a reason for failure. However, Ji Ying was still her weakness.And Jiang Zhong undoubtedly knew this very well, so he was confident and confident. This person... turned out to be her father. This person...why is it her father? The wound deep in his heart cracked again, bleeding profusely, and Jiang Chenyu just suppressed the heart-piercing pain, looked at Jiang Zhong steadfastly, and said softly: "Then do you know, Daddy, your favorite This gift is a gift that can make your daughter - me, die?"

Jiang Zhong narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "You have grown up, Chen Yu. So, you know, you can die, but you won't die." Jiang Chenyu couldn't help laughing, but halfway through the laugh, he turned into anger, and finally put the pliers on the table, turned around and jumped up and hissed: "Because I won't die, so I can do this." Hurt me recklessly, destroy me and torture me?" Jiang Zhong raised his hand and slapped her without hesitation. Seeing this scene, Huai Jin was so frightened that the tray in his hand fell to the ground. Jiang Zhong ordered without looking back: "Huaijin, go out and watch the door, don't allow anyone to come in."

Huai Jin looked at him, then at Jiang Chenyu who was knocked to the ground by that slap, after some hesitation, he retreated. Once the door is closed, the entire room is completely isolated from the outside world.The sultry night, the twisted and dancing candles, and the icy ground.Jiang Chenyu stared at the ground unfocused, the burning pain on her right cheek reminded her that she had suffered the first slap in her life, and the person who slapped her was none other than her father. Jiang Zhong walked up to her and commanded condescendingly, "Raise your head." Jiang Chenyu raised his head slowly, because of looking up, his father's face looked extremely majestic.And this kind of majesty has never been seen in the past fifteen years.In other words, he never showed it to her.

Is this how he looks when facing his subordinates? Those emotionally numb but skilled killing machines were trained by such a person, right? How ridiculous, how ironic, she had watched him for fifteen years, but she hadn't seen his real appearance until today... "Chen Yu, is this the first time you have been beaten for your father?" Jiang Chenyu said dully: "It's the first time." "So, do you know why my father beat you?" Jiang Chenyu bit her lower lip: "Because... I'm disobedient." Jiang Zhong shook his head: "Wrong, I hit you because you can't see yourself clearly!"

Jiang Chenyu's heart trembled. "Look here, Chen Yu, look around." Jiang Zhong stretched his arms and turned a small half circle, "Look at this carved glass dressing table, look at this embroidered phoenix jade pillow, and this gold tassel, horn Carillon... This is the imperial palace! Chen Yu, this is the imperial palace, not the boudoir of the daughter of your Jiang family! And the reason why you are here is because you are the emperor's concubine, this is an unchangeable fact! Can you reconnect with Ji Ying? Let me tell you, stop dreaming, from the moment you step on the ground of the palace, you can no longer have anything to do with Ji Ying, or any other man! But you obviously forgot In this regard, how much right and wrong did you cause me during the trip to Chengguo? Ji Ying is fine, what happened to He Yi? Do you think he is treating you with a pleasant face at this moment, because he really doesn’t mind at all? What is it that blinded you? My daughter! I am most proud of Chen Yu!"

Jiang Chenyu's eyes immediately turned red, and she said word by word: "Daughter asks herself to be open-minded, and she is worthy of the world." "What about Ji Ying?" Jiang Zhong's pupils were shrinking, "Do you dare to say that you have no regrets for him?" Jiang Chenyu was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly started to sneer. While sneering, she staggered to her feet: "I'm ashamed of Ji Ying...why? Why? I already liked him. I liked him before, no, since I knew what love is, I have only seen him..." "You... have no shame!"

"No matter how unworthy I am with his identities, even if I cannot marry him because of the family and the emperor, even if I, as the emperor's woman, cannot have two hearts... But I still have to say, I have no shame! Because, Ji Ying is different from you!" "You!" Jiang Zhong blushed with anger. On the other hand, Jiang Chenyu became more and more calm: "Look at yourself, father, look at yourself. You have been in power for thirty years, as the parents of the people, as the pillar of the country, what have you done? Look at your political achievements: the Kui River was flooded, Xue Huai personally led the soldiers to rescue the disaster, and lived with the people in a straw hut for three full months; Ji Ying was in charge of logistics, sending money, food and clothing over... How about you? What are you doing? You are busy training your dead soldiers. The plague in Huaibei is pervasive, and it is Ji Ying who cures it; …When the country is in trouble, when the people are helpless, what do you do? You are still training your dead soldiers. Yes, you have trained the best dead soldiers in the world today, but those dead soldiers came from Where did they come from? They were supposed to be children loved by their parents and cared for by their relatives, but they were whipped and beaten at a young age, and trained in the cruelest way. , is nothing more than a walking dead killing machine. I know you have done a lot for the Jiang family, and you have paid a lot, but there is not only one family in the world..."

Jiang Zhong was choked up by the long string of words. "Father, I was born in an official and grew up in the prime minister's mansion. Since I was a child, I have mostly seen the greedy, selfish side of the law. Even an idiot like my brother, because he is the son of the right prime minister, can be mixed with power in the hands of the ruling and opposition parties." ... But one day I saw such a person, you said, why can't I like him? How can I not like him? What's wrong with liking beautiful things? What's wrong with liking men with outstanding moral character?" Jiang Chen When Yu said this, his lips trembled, and it turned into sadness in an instant, "But...Father, you killed him. You killed Ji Ying with unscrupulous and despicable means."

Jiang Zhong was silent for a long time before he opened his mouth and said, "I have to kill him." "I have to... so I have to." Jiang Chenyu sneered, "Back then, you had to abandon Du Juan because she was blind; later, you had to kill Du Juan's adoptive parents because you were afraid of leaking the news; and later , you had to drug Huayue to make her infertile for life, because she was not your biological daughter; and later, you had to send me into the palace because you wanted a queen... Every step of the father I have to..." "Chen Yu," Jiang Zhong suddenly called her name, in an unusually serious way, "I can understand that you hate me; it doesn't matter if you don't forgive me. However, in this life of being a father, maybe The country has no achievements for the people, but it is worthy of the whole family, worthy of the ancestors." Jiang Chenyu turned her head away, stared at the candlelight on the table, and said lightly: "Yes, this is the difference between you and me. You are for the title of Jiang Shi, for the brilliance of the lintel. And I..." She turned her head, looked at her father, and said word by word, "Compared with the family character, I value the character more. Dujuan, Huayue, so many people, there are so many people who could have a happy life. It was you, father." Destroy them. I am your daughter, my surname is Jiang, and I cannot change this surname, but I am also Chen Yu. As Chen Yu, I am a person, so what I ask for is—justice. A body As a human being, he is better than heaven, geography and law, and he should be fair." Jiang Zhong was shocked by the perseverance and determination revealed in her eyes. For a moment, the daughter in front of her, who had watched her grow up little by little since she was a baby, looked very strange. She clearly stood there, only three steps away from her, but she seemed to be standing on a height that he could never reach in his life, looking down on him with a cold gaze. Actually, in the final analysis, Jiang Chenyu didn't understand him, so why did he ever understand Jiang Chenyu? Jiang Zhong's hands trembled uncontrollably. And Jiang Chenyu turned around, and said slowly: "It's late at night, it's not right for father to stay here for a long time, please go back." Jiang Zhong couldn't help calling out: "Chen Yu..." "Also," Jiang Chenyu said in a calmer and more indifferent tone, "Next time, please father call me your empress." Jiang Zhong was completely stunned, stared at her blankly for a long time, finally turned around, opened the door and left without saying a word. The door was not closed, Huai Jin poked her head timidly, and seeing Jiang Chenyu sitting with her back to the door, she walked over worriedly and said: "Miss..." She called out and there was no response, so she went to the front to help her by the shoulder: "Little..." He only said one word, and the following word "sister" was stuck in his throat and he couldn't pronounce it.Because, what she saw was—— Jiang Chenyu opened a pair of big black eyes, two lines of liquid slipped down from the eyes, shocking on the snow-white cheeks. That's not tears. but... Blood. That night, apart from Concubine Shu crying blood, another major event happened in the palace.That was Mrs. Xihe who seemed to have calmed down. When the palace maid opened the palace door to wash and change her clothes the next day, she suddenly found out that she hadn't slept all night! The first ray of morning light gently covered her body. She was sitting on the ground, holding Ji Ying's white robe in her hand, and her long waterfall hair was loose. The hair is the same color as the robe. "...What a crime, why did her hair turn white overnight..." Holding Yu, who heard the gossip early in the morning, combed Jiang Chenyu's hair, and murmured, "And I heard that she doesn't know anyone anymore, Seeing her like that, the maids hurriedly asked the imperial physician to show her, but as soon as anyone approached, she screamed furiously, biting whoever she saw. It is said that three people have been bitten this morning." Jiang Chenyu frowned, and said: "Then the imperial doctor has gone to see it?" "I went, but I can't get close. Among the three people who were bitten, there was Jianghuai Jiang Imperial Physician." Jiang Chenyu thought for a while, and said, "Send someone to invite Marquis Dong Bi." "Oh... good." "As soon as Lord Hou arrives, take him to Baohua Palace to find me." After Jiang Chenyu finished speaking, she put on her clothes and got up. Holding Yu opened his eyes wide and asked, "Miss, is she going to Mrs. Xihe's place right now?" Jiang Chenyu stared at the gloomy sky outside the window, and said leisurely: "If my guess is right, the emperor won't go to court early today." She guessed right. The early court was canceled after Zhaoyin heard about Xihe.And when Jiang Chenyu rushed to Baohua Palace, Zhao Yin was angrily scolding the maid: "How do you take care of Madam? You didn't know she had gray hair until morning?" More than a dozen court ladies knelt on the ground trembling, and the leader choked up and said: "Madam never let us stay overnight. So last night we saw that she seemed to be fine, so we all retreated...how did we expect her to stay?" , She actually..." "A bunch of useless trash!" Zhao Yin kicked her down, angrily walked up to Xi He who was curled up beside the dressing table, grabbed her arm, and tried to pull her up, but the result was met without exception. Here comes the revolt. Xihe opened her mouth to bite, biting hard on his hand. Zhao Yin did not back down, dragged her up forcefully, and said sharply: "Bite! Just bite! I want to see how far you can bite, how crazy you are!" Saying this, he forcibly pulled her away. Going to the mirror, he grabbed her by the hair and forced her to look in the mirror, "Look, show me a good look! Do you think it's okay to be crazy? Do you think it's okay to have gray hair? Tell you Ye Xihe, it's not that easy! You're still my man even if you're crazy, and you're still my wife even if you're ugly. Your life is far from over!" When he pushed hard, Xihe fell limply, tears and snot flowing down together, and burst into tears. Jiang Huai on the side looked terrified, and hurriedly stepped forward to check Zhao Yin's hand, only to see two rows of tooth marks deep on the wrist, which had begun to ooze blood.That bite was really not light. "Please ask Rong Chen to bandage the emperor." Jiang Huai knelt down and hurriedly took out gauze and ointment from the medicine box to bandage Zhao Yin. Zhao Yin pushed him away, and walked in front of Xihe again.This time Xihe learned his lesson, and before he came close, she tried her best to hide back, kicking while hiding, not letting him approach. Jiang Chenyu saw all this in her eyes, and couldn't help but sigh deeply in her heart: so ugly... Zhaoyin and Xihe in this appearance are too ugly... At this time, the eunuch outside the hall shouted loudly: "Dong Bihou has arrived—" The next moment, Jiang Wanyi hurriedly appeared at the door. Seeing the scene inside the house, he was also dazed for a while, but he quickly reacted and stepped forward to say: "Your Majesty, don't be like this, Your Majesty..." "Let me go!" Zhao Yin pushed his hand away and continued to grab Xi He's feet, while Xi He kicked and cried, his screams were almost deafening. Jiang Wanyi bent her legs, fell to her knees, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, please give me three days to let my wife return to her original state!" Zhao Yin's movements stopped immediately, and he gave Jiang Wanyi a sideways glance. Jiang Wanyi kowtowed desperately, his forehead sweating profusely. Zhao Yin snorted coldly, put his hands back and straightened up and said, "Okay, I will give you three days. After three days, if Mrs. Xihe can't recover, you know what the consequences will be." Jiang Wanyi bowed deeply. Zhao Yin glanced at Xihe again, facing Jiang Wanyi's rescue and his threats, Xihe still didn't feel anything, just huddled in the corner and kept crying, with tears and snot all over his face, he didn't know how much he looked like. ugly. His face became more and more serious, he turned and left without saying a word, and when he passed by Jiang Chenyu, he said expressionlessly: "Come with me." Although Jiang Chenyu really wanted to stay and see how Jiang Wanyi healed Xihe, but hearing what Zhao Yin said, he could only follow closely. The sky outside is getting darker and cloudy, and it seems that a heavy rain is inevitable.The wind was also strong, blowing my sleeves and hair straight back.Jiang Chenyu couldn't help but raised his hand to brush his hair, and at the same time, Zhao Yin raised his foot and kicked away a pot of peonies that had been placed neatly on the side of the road without blocking the way. With a "clang" sound, the flowerpot shattered. The guards and eunuchs saw that the emperor was in a bad mood, so they hurried away. Jiang Chenyu glanced at the pot of unlucky peonies, sighed lightly, ignored Zhao Yin's gloomy gaze, stepped forward to find an empty pot, moved the crooked peonies back into the pot, and buried them carefully. This move took half a cup of tea, and during this half cup of tea, Zhao Yin watched coldly from the side without saying a word. It wasn't until Jiang Chenyu finished everything, just when he was about to get up, he took a few steps forward and kicked the flower pot, breaking it. Jiang Chenyu raised her head, Zhao Yin half-closed her eyes and looked at her provocatively, as if saying: "See what you can do?" Jiang Chenyu didn't say anything, and silently took an empty pot to transplant peonies again, and after finishing the matter, she raised her head and said softly: "Your Majesty, are you still kicking?" Zhao Yin's eyes flickered a few times, then suddenly turned around and left. Jiang Chenyu quickly patted the dirt off his hands, got up and followed. Zhao Yin walked quickly, and arrived at the study in a short while. Luo Heng stepped forward to open the door. After he entered, he ordered: "Chen Yu, come in, and everyone else stay outside." "Yes." Luo Heng carefully closed the door. In the huge study room, there were only the two of them left.The wind was blowing outside, rustling the window paper, making the room even more deserted.Because there was no light on, the light was dim, from Jiang Chenyu's perspective, he could only see Zhao Yin's side face, which looked more gloomy in the faint light and shadow. "You are not afraid of me...why?" In the loneliness, Zhao Yin finally spoke first. Jiang Chenyu thought for a while, then asked: "Does the emperor mean the peony pot just now?" Zhao Yin let out a "hum" as an affirmation. "Probably because...compared to the anger when the emperor kicked it over, I also saw the pity that flashed in the emperor's eyes after it fell." Zhao Yin turned around in surprise and looked directly at her. "The emperor's favorite flower is the peony. Those pots were carefully planted and taken care of by the gardeners day and night. In the heart of the emperor, he naturally knew that it was not easy for them to bloom. So the emperor kicked it, but felt distressed... Since the emperor I feel distressed, and it is right for the concubines to rescue them, so, what is there to be afraid of?" At this point, Jiang Chenyu smiled, and said slowly in a different tone, "However, the flower is broken, you can Again, if a person is broken, it will be difficult to heal... Your Majesty, please think again." Zhao Yin's face softened a little while listening to the first half of the paragraph, but immediately sank again when he heard the last sentence: "Are you teaching me a lesson?" "The concubine dare not." Jiang Chenyu lightly lifted the hem of her skirt, Yingying knelt down, and when she raised her head again, tears glistened in her eyes, as if she was about to cry, "The emperor knows that Cheng Guo and his party give the concubine the greatest feeling, except Is there anything beyond the vastness of the world?" "what?" A wry smile floated on the corner of Jiang Chenyu's lips, adding three points of melancholy, four points of desolation, and five points of sadness condensed into twelve points of softness: "That is—life is small." A certain emotion flashed in Zhao Yin's eyes, and he fell silent. "The person you thought was omnipotent and very powerful will die a miserable death in a blink of an eye; you think that the world is peaceful and peaceful, and the next moment, there will be swords, swords, swords, and wars... What you hold in your hand at this moment, the next moment Maybe it will be broken; the one who smiled at you yesterday has become a shell today... There is an old saying that we all know, but we will never pay attention to it until we experience it ourselves, that is-cherish the people in front of us .” In the dim light and shadow, her soft and dust-free voice, and the deep and long-term emotions contained in the voice, make people feel moved and sympathetic.Therefore, after being silent for a long time, Zhao Yin didn't say anything, but just stretched out his hand in front of Jiang Chenyu again. Jiang Chenyu grabbed it respectfully. He retracted his arms and pulled her up from the ground.After Jiang Chenyu stood still, Zhao Yin let go of his fingers, turned around and walked to the window, pushed the window open, and the stuffy air flowed in immediately, thunder roared outside the house, and the bean-sized water droplets hit the ground leaving watermarks one by one— — It’s raining. It’s falling. "Chen Yu..." Zhao Yin looked at the thick black clouds in the distance, and said in a low voice, "I heard that you and your father... broke up." Jiang Chenyu's blood color quickly faded from his face. Sure enough... in the palace, there is nothing that can be hidden from the emperor's ears...? Zhao Yin turned back to look at her, his eyes were piercing, and they were surprisingly bright: "Jiang Zhong wanted to push you to the queen's position, but he didn't expect that it would go against his wish, and instead aroused your rebellious heart." Jiang Chenyu bit her lip, her face was pale, and it took a while before she said: "My life...is my own." "Okay!" Zhao Yin clapped his hands and laughed, "What a 'my life is my own'. Jiang Chenyu, I have decided! I want to reward you for your actions. And the reward I give you that is--" bang—— A thunderbolt pierced the sky. Jiang Chenyu stared blankly at Zhao Yin in front of the window. Behind him was the raging heavy rain, and the sleeves embroidered with the five-clawed golden dragon totem were bulging with the wind. His face was a little clear and a little fuzzy... What did he say? Zhao Yin, what did he say just now? ? Since the original queen Xue Ming was abolished, for a long time, the courtiers were very worried—fearing that Zhao Yin would make Xihe his queen.In fact, Zhaoyin's series of behaviors since then are very similar to making Xihe the queen: first let Jianghuai and Xihe recognize their relatives, then make Jiang Wanyi a marquis, and then send Jiang Wanyi to make contributions to Cheng Guo... ...Seeing that Jiang Wanyi has returned smoothly this time, and that he will be promoted to an official position just around the corner, but at this critical juncture, Mrs. Xihe has gone crazy! The rumors about why Xihe went crazy are naturally echoed by others, and the more they say it, the more outrageous they become, but it is still unknown what the emperor thinks of her.At this moment, the emperor suddenly said that he wanted to be crowned queen, and the queen was not Xihe, but Jiang Chenyu, whom no one had thought of before. ——This whole incident has become weird. Half of the courtiers held a wait-and-see attitude to protect themselves wisely, and half of them secretly belonged to Jiang Zhong's private party, so they naturally strongly agreed with this move. Because of this, the act of sealing the empress was so smooth and unimpeded. In stark contrast to the Jiang family's Fengshengshui is the Jiang family who finally took the plunge. Although many people have confidence in Jiang Wanyi's medical skills, but this time, he disappointed everyone—— After the three-day period expired, Mrs. Xihe not only did not recover, but became even more insane.Originally, it was just seeing people bite, but now, they can't even see the light.As long as there was a little light on her, she would howl violently and tremble all over. The maids had no choice but to block all the glass windows and cover them tightly with black cloth.This was not enough, and in the end she was stimulated whenever she heard footsteps, so the palace servants who were originally serving could only withdraw and tune in, and only a few people were left to guard the gate. "...It's more than that!" While combing Jiang Chenyu's hair, Ju Yu continued to report the news she heard from the outside, "Now she hugs Qi Aohou's clothes all day long and curls up in the corner humming, her face He didn’t wash or eat, and when he was hungry, he grabbed whatever he could and ate all his shit and urine.” At this point, Ju Yu showed a sad expression on his face, “My God, can you imagine? But Mrs. Xihe, the lady who is known as the most beautiful woman in the Four Kingdoms. This morning I went to Baohua Palace to take a sneak peek. Before I reached the entrance of the palace, I smelled the stench from inside... " "Then have you seen anyone?" Huai Jin asked. "As soon as I was smoked by the smell, I ran back and vomited. How could I bother to go in and have a look..." Huai Jin sighed lightly: "It's so pitiful..." Holding Yu snorted, and said disapprovingly: "I think, this is her retribution. It is said that she instigated the emperor to let the young lady into the palace at the beginning, and made the young lady suffer so much. In addition, the one she offended on weekdays There are too many people, and now everyone sees that she is crazy, and they applaud her." Jiang Chenyu frowned: "Juyu, there is no basis for it. From now on, you are not allowed to mention the words 'I entered the palace because of Xihe's instigation'. What kind of person is the emperor, how can you use it?" Instigate' two words to describe?" Holding Yu was reprimanded, and he flattened his mouth and said: "Yes, I know... But, the emperor really dotes on Mrs. Xihe... You said she has become like this, dirty and smelly, even the servants who serve her The maids and eunuchs could not stay in Baohua Palace, but the emperor still went to see her every day. Mrs. Xihe became even more mad when she saw the emperor, crying and making noises, so the emperor had no choice but to stay away every time. Look at it from a distance for a while before leaving. Hey... It is said that the emperor is ruthless, but our emperor is really an infatuated emperor. It is a pity that if the object is that Xihe, it will really make other concubines envious Also jealous to death." Jiang Chenyu listened to these right and wrong remarks, did not express his opinion, but smiled coldly in his heart—those concubines envied Xihe, but they didn't know that the most pitiful person might be Xihe. Her Jiang Chenyu's suffering was due to the fact that love was not available; while Xihe's suffering was really caused by love and hatred. Comparing her heart with her heart, she, Jiang Chenyu, has never had a son before. When she lost him, she was already so uncomfortable, let alone Xihe who had obtained it, enjoyed it alone, and even was still tied to him all the time? Xihe hated Ji Ying as much as she loved her, and the deeper the hatred, the more she loved.Love and hate are intertwined, forming the most important person among all living beings in heaven and earth, and suddenly one day, that person died—— How could she bear that kind of blow? Therefore, Mrs. Xihe's madness is inevitable. Actually, there's nothing wrong with being crazy. At least, if you are crazy, you don't have to think about anything, don't care about anything, just immerse yourself in your own personal world. Speaking of it, I'm really a little envious... Holding Yu pretended to sigh for a while, and continued: "Madam Xihe, that's all. Poor Dong Bihou, it's unlucky to be with her." Only then did Jiang Chenyu remember the three-day agreement, and said in shock: "By the way, what's wrong, senior brother?" "What else? Mrs. Xihe was not cured, so he can only be punished. He is quite self-conscious, and went to kneel outside the emperor's study early this morning to beg for sin." Jiang Chenyu got up quickly, holding Yu and shouted: "Miss! Wait! The hairpin is not finished yet!" "No more. Come on, tell them to prepare a sedan chair." In order to facilitate her going to the Baiyan Hall to listen to the government every day, Zhao Yinte assigned a sedan chair to her, but at this moment, no matter how she felt, the sedan chair was not fast enough.In particular, when she hurried to the imperial study room, but found that the hall was empty without Jiang Wanyi's figure, she became more and more worried, and hurriedly found Luo Heng and asked secretly, "Eunuch, where is Marquis Dongbi?" "Yo, Concubine Shu is here, and this slave kowtows to her..." Luo Heng gestured to bow, but Jiang Chenyu came to his senses, took off the bracelet from his hand and stuffed it over. "Yo, how dare you make your empress spend money..." Luo Heng pretended to accept the gift, and then said with a smile, "Dong Bihou is fine, your empress can rest assured." Only then did Jiang Chenyu let go of the big stone in his heart. Luo Heng explained the process concisely. It was roughly that Marquis Dongbi knew that he could not complete the three-day agreement, so he came to kneel from Yinshi, and Zhao Yin did not express his opinion immediately after learning the news that he was kneeling outside. Just let him kneel for two hours.It was not until Chenshi that the Taoist decree was issued, saying that he was not good at doing things, that he was removed from the position of marquis, and reduced to a commoner, and he would choose the sun to leave the palace, and he would not be allowed to enter the capital again for life. Jiang Chenyu was taken aback, just about to say something, when a little eunuch came out from inside and said: "The emperor invites Concubine Shu." It turned out that Zhao Yin knew she was coming. Jiang Chenyu took a deep breath, stepped into the study, and before he reached the middle of the room, Zhao Yin, who was wearing simple clothes, had already put on a coat under the eunuch's service and said: "You and I go to Baohua Palace." "...Yes." It seems that today's morning court will not be up. Zhao Yin didn't sit in a sedan chair, but just walked quickly, so Jiang Chenyu had to follow behind with lowered eyebrows and eyes, and saw Jiang Huayue from a distance on the way, just about to say hello, Jiang Huayue turned around and walked another way. Jiang Chenyu opened her dry mouth, very embarrassed. Zhao Yin on the side saw it, but didn't say anything, and quickened his pace.Among the three palaces, Baohua Palace is the closest to the emperor's bedroom, so the group arrived in front of the palace very quickly. The door of the palace was tightly closed, and two court ladies were standing outside the door chatting, seeing Zhao Yin and the others, they were both taken aback and hurriedly knelt down. A trace of anger flashed in Zhao Yin's eyes, and he said coldly, "Open the door." A court lady timidly said: "Your Majesty, madam does not allow you to see the light..." Before she could finish speaking, another court lady stopped her and motioned her not to talk nonsense, and obediently opened the door. After the door opened, an unpleasant smell came. It was a damp, rotten smell mixed with stink and essence. The fragrant ones are all kinds of decorations in the hall, and the smelly ones are naturally Mrs. Xihe. I saw Mrs. Xihe curled up like a shrimp in a dark corner where the sun couldn't shine, her hair was like straw, her clothes were so dirty that she couldn't see the original color, exuding a disgusting smell. Sour smell. With her eyes closed, she seemed to be asleep, so when the palace door suddenly opened, she shrank slightly and curled up even tighter. Everyone thought that seeing her like this, the emperor would definitely be angry again—just like the previous few times, but this time, Zhao Yin's expression was unexpectedly calm. He stood at the door and quietly looked at Xi who was three feet away. He, deep and complicated emotions surged in his eyes.And those emotions finally precipitated into sadness and rippled away. Jiang Chenyu saw the series of subtle expressions in his eyes, sighed in his heart, and then, without waiting for Zhao Yin's order, walked in gently and step by step. The maid opened her mouth, as if she wanted to stop her, but after seeing Zhao Yin's reaction, she gave up. And Zhao Yin also quietly shifted his gaze to Jiang Chenyu, exploring and looking forward to it. Jiang Chenyu's approach made Xihe, who was sleeping soundly, finally opened his eyes vigilantly, his face was panicked, and he was about to scream subconsciously, Jiang Chenyu hurriedly took the first step and sang: "The moon rises, the water is Yiyi, like Bixi, like Qingyi..." She sang the same song that Xihe sang the day she went crazy, and the effect was still obvious——Xihe stopped shouting immediately, and her panic expression gradually softened. When Jiang Chenyu sang "There are tears in the sea, and the rain never stops", Xihe's bloodshot, red and swollen eyes were covered with a layer of water vapor.
