Chapter 389: Love is on the line, lovers should not abandon(1/2)
Lin Ruoxi has never seen other men besides her father, Pingyang Hou, who is so handsome at his middle-aged age, and who also has the unique masculine charm of his father.
Mrs. Situ reminded softly in Lin Ruoxi's ear: "Ruoxi, he is the man that Concubine Hui once loved, the King of Wins."
As soon as Lin Ruoxi heard this name, she suddenly remembered something in her mind. Tuobatian once mentioned to her that there was a man in Southern Xinjiang who was an outstanding painter and calligrapher. His name was King Ying.
Because Lin Ruoxi likes calligraphy very much, Tuoba Tian also found many beautiful and free-spirited calligraphy masters for Lin Ruoxi in Southern Xinjiang Kingdom to write calligraphy books. However, this King Ying Ao never liked to make friends with outsiders.
, about how Tuobatian asked him to write a few words or give her some calligraphy and paintings.
This winning king not only did not give it to Tuobatian, but instead sent him out of the palace. Tuobatian was not allowed to go in even half a step. Tuobatian was so angry that he almost went crazy. When Lin Ruoxi mentioned this matter in his ears, he almost became angry.
Gearing up.[
This is also the reason why Lin Ruoxi can remember this winner.
King Ying was dressed in gorgeous purple clothes, which made his facial features and whole body look so majestic.
Mrs. Situ and Lin Ruoxi were polite and saluted King Ying. When King Ying saw that Mrs. Situ was coming, a hint of indifference appeared on his handsome face.
"Isn't this Mrs. Situ? I don't know what you would do if you came to this poor prince's palace like mine?"
Mrs. Situ still felt a little guilty when she faced King Ying, because at that time, she had just joined the Pingyang Marquis Mansion and had witnessed Concubine Situ Hui and King Ying becoming friends, and the two of them had even decided to make a lifelong decision.
But at that time, Queen Wu's strength was getting stronger and stronger, and the Wu family was becoming more and more aggressive, almost completely suppressing the power of the Situ family.
In desperation, the old Marquis Situ and his wife asked Concubine Situ Hui for help. They thought Concubine Situ Hui would cry and refuse, but they did not expect that Concubine Situ Hui would agree to the matter and even tell King Ying personally.
She would not marry him, which made King Ying very sad.
From then on, King Ying never interfered in the government affairs. He lived alone in the palace without seeing anyone else. However, everyone knew that he was deeply hurt by Concubine Situ Hui, which is why he acted like this.
Mrs. Situ smiled softly and said, "Your Majesty's past affairs..."
Before Mrs. Situ finished speaking, King Ying had already begun to issue an eviction order: "Everyone, please leave. I don't want to see you Situ family members coming here to look for me."
Mrs. Situ was rejected, but she still had a pleasant look on her face. She smiled and said: "Your Majesty, what happened in the past is over, why do you have to be so worried about it?"
"You say I'm holding a grudge? Mrs. Situ, who gave me such a defeat today? Don't forget, it was your Situ family who harmed others first, and I don't want to say any more unpleasant words.
, if you insist on standing here, I will have to order people to beat you out."
Lin Ruoxi knew that when dealing with such a stubborn person, she must not be too docile and must use both soft and hard tactics. Lin Ruoxi said angrily: "Prince Ying, how can you talk to my mother like this? My mother and I came to you today with good intentions.
, maybe you don’t know now, but if you dare to reject my and my mother’s kindness, I think you will regret it for the rest of your life!”
The words Lin Ruoxi said were irresistible and stern.
King Ying was startled. He didn't expect to see a woman with a worse temper than him, with such a stubborn temper?
Lin Ruoxi knew that King Ying was hesitant now, so she said four words in a coaxing way, "She wants to see you!"
Just four short words, but Wang Ying really changed his mind.
He snorted coldly: "Let's talk about it after we enter the palace!"
He waved his long sleeves and walked in front, followed closely by Mrs. Situ and Lin Ruoxi.[
Mrs. Situ said in Lin Ruoxi's ear: "Ruoxi, I didn't expect you to be quite capable!"
Lin Ruoxi smiled: "Mother, don't you see the shadow of your daughter in him?"
Mrs. Situ suddenly realized that she saw the same arrogance and stubborn temper as Ruoxi in King Ying. No wonder Lin Ruoxi touched King Ying's heart with just a few words and made him change his mind and let them enter the palace. If
She also found out.
When they arrived in the hall, King Ying drove all the servants out, and then asked: "What is it? Tell me quickly!"
Mrs. Situ said: "King Ying, it's Concubine Situ Hui. She wants to see you!"
"She wants to see me? It's really ridiculous. Twenty years have passed since Huang Yanjian, and I haven't heard of her wanting to see me. How could she meet me so suddenly?"
When Mrs. Situ saw King Ying's sarcastic expression, she knew that after all these years, he still couldn't forget it. But at that time, Concubine Situ Hui really couldn't help herself, because she represented not only herself, but also the entire Situ family.
.
"King Ying, I came here this time with Concubine Situ Hui's wish, because Concubine Situ Hui..." Mrs. Situ choked up a little when she said this: "She can't live more than five days!"
King Ying was startled, but he still pretended to be nonchalant.
"Don't come and beg me to see her by pretending to be crazy or dead. I will never be soft-hearted again."
Mrs. Situ was a little anxious: "King Ying, how could you say such a thing? Don't you know that Concubine Situ Hui has always had you in her heart?"
King Ying sneered: "Mrs. Situ, please be careful what you say. She is a noble concubine. If the emperor hears what you say, what do you think the emperor will think? Not only will concubine Hui be punished, but even my emperor will be punished."
I won’t let go, I haven’t lived enough yet, so please let me live!” 13v.
Mrs. Situ was furious. She stood up and pointed at King Ying and said, "I never thought that Concubine Hui would miss her. How could she meet such an ungrateful person like you before she died, Ruoxi..."
Mrs. Situ took Lin Ruoxi's hand and made a gesture to leave the hall: "Let's go, we don't want to waste time here, and we don't want to let Concubine Hui know that the man she liked was such a loving person."
Lin Ruoxi glanced at King Ying indifferently, but when she stood up, she dropped a blood-stained handkerchief on the tea table.
King Ying raised his eyes and saw the blood-stained veil. His heart trembled and he understood immediately.
He hurriedly called Lin Ruoxi and Mrs. Situ.
"Wait a minute, I have something to ask you?"
Mrs. Situ was not surprised, but asked coldly: "If King Ying has anything to say, please tell me!"
"Is she...really sick? And very seriously ill, with only five days to live?"
After King Ying said these words, he didn't even notice that his heart started to tremble. He was really scared and afraid that he would hear such a thing. He really hoped that all of this was false.
Fake.
Mrs. Situ nodded: "Yes, Concubine Hui is really seriously ill. Besides, how can I make fun of someone's life?" [
King Ying clenched his fists, pursed his lips, and smiled bitterly: "Why doesn't this fool know that he loves himself?"
Lin Ruoxi and Mrs. Situ looked at each other. Unexpectedly, in King Ying's heart, Concubine Hui was still very important. Even though he pretended to be indifferent on the surface, he was so hot in his heart and treated Concubine Hui so much.
The empress has deep feelings of love.
King Ying took a deep breath and raised his eyes with tears already swirling in his eyes: "Thank you, Mrs. Situ, for coming to tell me this. I will go to the palace to see her right away!"
Mrs. Situ hurriedly stopped her and said: "No, Concubine Hui's status does not allow you to meet like this. However, Concubine Hui has already asked the emperor to see you. She wants to return to Pingyang Hou Mansion to live the rest of her life.
I want to be there and let you accompany her through the last part of the journey."
When King Ying heard this, tears rolled down his handsome face.
A man's tears will never be shed when he is weak and vulnerable, because men bleed but never shed tears.
But it was only when he was most hurt that he would shed tears. This was not cowardice, but a man who was really emotional and heartbroken. It seems that King Ying was strong and proud on the surface, but he finally resisted.
Just a word of love.
King Ying waved his sleeves to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then bowed deeply to Mrs. Situ: "Thank you, Mrs. Situ. It's getting late, so let me take you back to the Hou Mansion!"
"No need, King Ying, Ruoxi and I can just go back."
"Well then, Mrs. Situ and Miss Situ, go away!"
After Mrs. Situ politely refused, she took Lin Ruoxi's hand, and the two of them walked out of Prince Ying's Mansion, got on the carriage and returned to Pingyang Marquis Mansion.
As soon as they arrived at Pingyang Hou Mansion, Pingyang Hou Situ Yu couldn't help but asked: "Madam, you and Ruoxi went to see Concubine Situ Hui today. How is she?"
Seeing the expressions on the faces of Mrs. Situ and Lin Ruoxi, he actually guessed that they were pretty close.
Mrs. Situ couldn't help but choked up again: "Concubine Hui, I'm afraid she won't survive five days."
"What?|" When Pingyang Hou Situyu heard this sentence, he was shocked and felt as painful as being hit by a heavy hammer.
Brothers Situ Zhan and Situ Bin were equally surprised, and it took them a long time to close their mouths.
Situ Yu clenched his fists angrily and asked, "But Queen Wu in the palace did something to Concubine Hui?"
Mrs. Situ was so choked that she couldn't explain clearly. Only Lin Ruoxi answered: "Yes, father, Empress Wu took advantage of Concubine Hui's mourning at home to add spices to the charcoal of Concubine Hui's hand stove. This spice is highly poisonous.
But because the fragrance is too light and difficult to detect, Concubine Hui was plotted by Empress Wu, and now that the poison is in her body, she may not survive for long."
Situ Yu raised his hand and shook the wooden table in half: "Seeing that I was about to go to the border to guard, Empress Wu suddenly caused such a scene again. Did she not want me to leave? She also wanted to take the opportunity to kill her.
Has the power of the Situ family been weakened? This vicious woman deserves to die."
Lin Ruoxi gritted her teeth and smiled: "Father, you don't have to worry too much, because Empress Wu is also suffering retribution. She will probably be poisoned soon and will not survive for a few days.
Everyone in the Situ family was shocked by Lin Ruoxi's words, but Lin Ruoxi looked calm and ordered Luoxue to bring the real Fengwu Cangqiong Qin in front of everyone. Only then did everyone know that Princess Izuyun presented it to Empress Wu.
The Baoqin is indeed fake.
If my guess is correct, there may be poison on the strings!
In the Fengfang Palace, Queen Wu's slender fingers were as beautiful as white onions, caressing the strings of the ice cicada silk, the scarlet blood kite jade piano surface, and the five valuable gems on the piano surface.
Suddenly there was a burst of wild laughter, and the laughter lingered in the hall, like a magic sound, lingering in the ears and heart, and it sounded creepy.
At this moment, a virgin official in plain clothes stood outside the palace and asked to see him.
Empress Wu's laughter stopped, she pretended to be indifferent, put away the Fengwu Cangqiong Qin, and then ordered someone to announce the virgin official.
With a veil on her official face, Shi Shiran came to Queen Wu and bowed to her.
