Chapter 120 Chapter 120 Because From the Same Place

Xiao Shunzi knelt down for him when he heard the words, and thanked him: "Thank you godfather for saving me, Xiao Shunzi is very grateful." Li Dequan helped him up, lightly flicked the ashes on his clothes, and sighed in a low voice: "The imperial palace is so big, I only have you as a family member, who will not help you? But son, listen to godfather's advice, go Mountains and mountains will eventually meet tigers, even if you have an exquisite heart, you will be caught sooner or later." Xiao Shunzi avoided his gaze, lowered his head and said, "My son understands."

Li Dequan said again: "Miss Qingchuan is still relentless about this matter, and godfather has no other way to teach you. There is only one sentence, which you must remember. Change what you should eat and what you should eat." Drink, don't worry about what other people say, just pretend it's nothing, understand?" Xiao Shunzi hurriedly replied, "Yeah." Li Dequan sighed again, and walked away slowly, leaving only Xiao Shunzi standing there alone for a long time, then he came back to his senses, saw that there was no one around, and went to Chuxiu Palace secretly.

As soon as they entered the Chuxiu Palace, the concubine greeted them in a panic, dismissed everyone, and said to Xiao Shunzi in a panic: "Do you know? Qingchuan soaked those hairs in water and placed them on the imperial court. In the garden, it is said that hair has a smell, and different shavings make the hair smell different. If you soak your hair in water for a day and then fish it out, the shavings will dissolve in the water, and when you smell it, Then pair up with the list of supplies in the palace, and you will know who is the most suspected." Xiao Shunzi nodded and said, "When I came here, I deliberately walked around the imperial garden and saw that glazed bottle."

The concubine was even more flustered when she heard this, and shouted: "What should I do? Li Dequan handed over the hair he had collected from me as a good concubine, but it was still stained with my shavings. What if it is true? If you find me here, what else do I have to do?" She was so anxious that she turned around and read: "No, I can't just sit and wait for death. When it gets dark, I will change into a court lady's attire and secretly change out that hair!" Xiao Shunzi stopped her in a hurry, and persuaded: "Don't worry, my godfather said, the best way now is to keep things unchanged!"

Jubilee was already in a state of confusion, and said angrily, "If it doesn't change, it's over. Don't worry, my solution is very good. I'll put the sweat medicine into their wine in a while, and when they fall asleep, I will secretly drink it." Change your hair." As she spoke, she pushed Xiao Shunzi away and walked forward.Xiao Shunzi hurriedly knelt in front of her to stop her, and shouted in a low voice: "No, I won't let you go." Xi Concubine tightly held his shoulders with both hands, "If you go, there may be a glimmer of life, if you don't go, you will have to wait for death."

But Xiao Shunzi was very determined, hugged Jubilee's legs with her hands, and insisted: "If you must go, unless you step over my corpse." Xi Concubine asked him to let go several times, but he just refused to let go. In the end, Xi Concubine became a little hysterical, punched and kicked Xiao Shunzi, and cursed in a low voice: "This is my life, you Why do you care about me? Get out of the way, out of the way..." But he remained motionless, only hugging her and refusing to let go. This night is so long, it is so for Jubilee and Xiao Shunzi, and it is also for Qing Chuan and Eighth Prince.

In the hidden place of the imperial garden, Qingchuan leaned gently on the eighth elder brother, and asked in a low voice: "Do you think that thief will be fooled? Will you come back to steal these hairs?" Eighth Brother was silent for a moment, then replied, "I don't know either." Qingchuan was also silent for a while, and said a little dejectedly: "It's because my thinking is too simple." Brother Ba smiled lightly and shook his head, reached out and stroked her hair gently, and said in a low voice: "No, thanks to your bravery, you have won us a day so that I can arrange , now, even if the thief doesn't show up, I still have a way to save you and Er Niang."

Qingchuan heard it strangely, turned to look at him, under the moonlight, his handsome face was calm but resolute, as if everything in this world was under his control.Qing Chuan was a little absent-minded for a while, until the eighth elder brother gently raised the corners of her lips, and then she came back to her senses. In order to cover up her gaffe, she hurriedly asked: "What can you do?" Brother Ba smiled and said: "I have asked Lao Jiu to bribe the dead man. If the thief does not show up, the dead man will pretend to be a thief and steal his hair. At that time, all the blame will be put on him."

Qing Chuan was silent for a long time, and finally said softly after a while: "I still hope to catch the real thief, so that no one will be victimized because of him." Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard a loud shout from not far away: "Grab her!" With a jolt, Qingchuan immediately stood up from the ground, dragged Eighth Brother and ran into the gazebo where the glazed bottles were placed!Seeing Brother Jiu and several imperial guards besieging a person who looked like a court lady, the "court lady" ran towards Qing Chuan in a panic, and happened to meet Qing Chuan face to face.

Qing Chuan was taken aback for a moment, and exclaimed involuntarily, "Miss Jubilee?" In the Qianqing Palace, Xiao Shunzi threw herself in front of Li De's body, crying and begging: "Godfather, please save the Empress Xi, please save her!" Li Dequan kicked him angrily, and said angrily: "It's this time, how can you save her if you call her a godfather? You are told to adapt to all changes without change, have you listened?" Xiao Shunzi rushed forward again, crying: "My son has listened, my son has listened. It's just that the Jubilee concubine panicked, she promised her son not to change that hair, but when her son left, she She went secretly. Godfather, please save her life, the son entered the palace for her, if something happened to her, the son would not survive."

Li Dequan sighed after hearing this, and said in a low voice: "Now that the matter has been exposed, it will be difficult to keep her position. I will try my best to save her life." Just as he was talking, the eighth elder brother, Qing Chuan and others had already entered from the outside. Li Dequan saw him and hurriedly told Xiao Shunzi to hide, while he led the eighth elder brother and others into the warm pavilion. When Kangxi heard the report, he was furious immediately, and said angrily, "Shut that bitch into the clan mansion, and choose a day to execute him there." Li Dequan hurriedly stepped forward and whispered: "Your Majesty, Gege is still young and cannot live without his mother. For Gege's sake, please give your mother a way out." Kangxi paused, and also thought of that frail and sickly little Gege, a flash of compassion flashed in his heart, so he nodded and said in a cold voice, "Then let's go into limbo first." With just such a simple sentence, a woman's life has come to an end.Qingchuan was chilled when he heard it, and lowered his head, not daring to make a sound. The eighth elder brother asked: "Huang Ama, everything has come to light, can you let Erniang go back?" Kangxi snorted coldly, and said: "Although your mother is not a hair-eating monster, she behaves strangely and rebelliously, which is really puzzling. You ask her to give me a reasonable explanation, and then return to Qiangong." Even though he said this, the meaning in the words was obviously that he no longer pursued the matter of Concubine Liang going to the fire scene in the middle of the night.The eighth elder brother was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly responded: "My son obeys the order." Eighth elder brother took Qingchuan out of the Qianqing Palace and went straight to the fire scene. He told Concubine Liang how to catch the murderer, and said, "It's Concubine Xi. Let her hair be used as a wig." He said, looked at Qingchuan proudly again, and said to Concubine Liang: "It's Qingchuan, she begged Huang Ama to give her a day with her life, and help you find out murderer." Concubine Liang couldn't help being a little surprised when she heard that, she turned her head to look at Qingchuan, and asked, "I don't treat you well, why did you do this?" Qing Chuan thought for a while, and replied: "Because of the eighth elder brother, and also because my empress and I are from the same place." Concubine Liang was taken aback for a moment, looked at Qingchuan carefully, and said softly, "So that's how it is." Qing Chuan only smiled faintly, and said: "The emperor said, as long as the empress explains to him your strange behavior the night before, I will let the empress go back to the palace." Concubine Liang fell silent again. The eighth elder brother asked helplessly: "Emiang, what can't you say?" Concubine Liang was silent for a moment, looked up at Brother Ba, and said, "Baby, Er Niang wants to talk to Qing Chuan alone, can I?" Brother Ba didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said angrily, "Emiang, I'm your own son. Is there anything I can't listen to?" Concubine Liang paused, then smiled, "It's best for men to avoid women's topics." Since she said such words, the eighth elder brother had no choice but to get up and leave.Concubine Liang saw him walking away, so she looked at Qingchuan again, looked at her carefully for a moment, and asked her, "You also came from the 21st century?" Qing Chuan nodded, and then heard Concubine Liang ask again: "Do you know why I would rather die than tell the emperor our real situation?" Qing Chuan shook his head puzzled. Concubine Liang smiled bitterly, and said: "Because history cannot be changed, one less person who knows about it will be less dangerous, otherwise, once something goes wrong, the consequences will be disastrous..." "I do not understand." Concubine Liang thought for a while, and explained to her: "Think about it, we are all passed down from generation to generation to this day. If the ancestors of a certain generation suddenly died, wouldn't the descendants and grandchildren after that not exist? , the people and things related to it will also change, and in the end it will be a problem whether the time and space we exist in is still there, let alone us?" Qing Chuan was originally a smart girl. Hearing Concubine Liang's words, she immediately understood, and couldn't help asking: "So, we can only go forward according to the direction of history, even though we know it's a tragedy, we can't change it?" Concubine Liang nodded and said, "Yes." Qing Chuan felt suffocated in his heart, and asked in a voiceless voice: "The eighth elder brother..." Concubine Liang nodded slowly, and said with a bitter smile: "This is the reason why I have stayed in the cold palace for so many years and failed to fulfill my mother's responsibility, because I have seen the consequences of changing history with my own eyes." She said, turning her gaze to the towering palace. Beyond the wall, the distance gradually became distant. That secret had been pressed in her heart for decades. It used to make her toss and turn in pain, and it made her feel almost crazy, but now she slowly said, It's like someone else's story.
