The autumn rain was cold and cold, and the dark sky made people feel breathless. Ye Zhen stood at the bottom of the steps, the rain wet her hair, and the black hair fell down on her cheeks, making her face more beautiful. Pale and fragile.
"Princess, you'd better wait in the house, my lord... the emperor will definitely send someone to take you into the palace." The maid anxiously persuaded her beside her. The princess has moved into the middle palace, why is there no news yet.
Ye Zhen felt uneasy. She married Murong Zhan when she was thirteen years old. Except for seeing him once in the bridal chamber, it has been two years since she met him. He doesn't even know what she looks like. Now that he has usurped the throne, he will take her in Palace
"Princess!" The maid who went out to inquire about the news came back and said pantingly, "Princess, the emperor took Miss Lu into the palace yesterday in the chariot of a noble concubine, and this morning he gave an order..."
Ye Zhen's heart rose, her face became even paler, and she asked in a trembling voice, "What did you order?"
"The Ye family has been ransacked, and it will be executed tomorrow, Wangfei, Your Majesty... Your Majesty is going to ransack the entire Ye family!" The maid cried out.
"Why..." Ye Zhen staggered and almost fainted, but the maid next to her supported her shoulders.
Even if the Ye family helped the first prince, didn't they try their best to assist him later? Why did Mo Rongzhan want to liquidate the Ye family
"Go, go and find Lu Lingzhi, no, I'll go find him myself!" Ye Zhen pushed the maid's hand away and started running in the rain.
Outside the gate of the palace, there were more than a dozen guards standing at some point. They stopped her and said that no one was allowed to go out under the emperor's order.
"Ye Zhen!" Lu Lingzhi walked in from the outside, looking at her gently, "Where are you going?"
"Lingzhi, you want to help me, you said you would help me, right?" Ye Zhen grabbed his arm. In the past two years, Lu Lingzhi has helped her with many things, and even sent letters to Mo Rongzhan for her. Yes, she treats him as a close friend, and he will definitely help her.
Lu Lingzhi smiled slightly, "Say, I will help you."
"Help me take this to the emperor, as long as he sees this jade pendant, he will come to see me." Ye Zhen took out the jade pendant that she had worn for eight years, it was a phoenix jade pendant with the color of flame .
"Okay!" Lu Ling's eyes flickered slightly, "It's just that the emperor is busy with business, so he may not come to the palace."
"I don't ask him for anything. I saved his life back then. He said that as long as he has this jade pendant, he will promise me one thing. I just ask him to let the Ye family go!" Ye Zhen choked up and said, she She no longer dared to expect to grow old with him, and now she only hopes to save the Ye family.
Lu Lingzhi's eyes flickered slightly, and he took the jade pendant in her hand, "Okay! Wait for me."
Ye Zhen went back to the house to wait, this time, she waited for a glass of poisoned wine.
"Why?" Ye Zhen looked at Lu Lingzhi puzzled. When Mo Rongzhan saw her jade pendant, he would know that she was the girl who saved him back then. Why didn't he come to see her
"Ye Zhen, the emperor always thought that Shuang'er was the one who saved him back then, even if you take out the jade pendant, it won't change anything." Lu Lingzhi said lightly.
Ye Zhen suddenly raised her eyes to look at Lu Lingzhi, "Shuang'er? Lu Shuang'er is your sister? You clearly knew that I was the one who saved the emperor, why didn't you explain to the emperor?"
"Ye Zhen, I owe you this life." Lu Lingzhi whispered, "You can go on your way with peace of mind."
Ye Zhen didn't have time to ask any more questions, the most trustworthy girl beside her had already grabbed her jaw, and poured wine into her mouth when she was caught off guard.
Lu Lingzhi's voice whispered into her ears, "Ye Zhen, I'm sorry, if there is an afterlife..."
Ye Zhen felt pain in her heart as if thousands of arrows were piercing her heart, her soul flew out of her body lightly, floating in the air watching Lu Ling order to slaughter all the servants in the palace, including the maid who just fed her poisoned wine .
A fire burned down the mansion where she used to live, and all traces of her, Ye Zhen, were erased.
Ye Zhen's soul lingered, she followed Lu Lingzhi into the palace, and came to the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, Mrs. Ye knew that you were going to put her under house arrest in the palace, and she was unwilling to set fire to the palace. No one survived." Lu Lingzhi knelt in front of the man and said respectfully.
Ye Zhen floated past the pillar, and now there was nothing that could stop her body, she landed in front of that man, staring at him blankly, the bright yellow clothes set off his dignity and majesty, that handsome face Familiar yet unfamiliar, she felt her heart tremble when she saw it.
I haven't seen him for many years. He is no longer the young man in fresh clothes and angry horse in her memory. He has become more handsome and tall, with clear and indifferent eyes, making people daunting.
"Morong Zhan, why did you kill me? Why didn't you keep your promise, why didn't you come to see me?" Ye Zhen asked, but no one could hear her.
Mo Rongzhan's eyes fell coldly on Lu Ling who was kneeling in front of him, "Is Mrs. Ye dead too?"
"Yes!" Lu Lingzhi replied in a low voice.
"Forget it, an insignificant person, let him die when he dies." Originally, because she and him were married, even if she didn't want to take her into the palace, she could still live and let her live in the palace without worry. , since she is not willing to do this, it is worthwhile to die.
Lu Ling's eyes flashed, "Yes."
"Go on, tomorrow I will make Shuang'er a noble concubine. If Shuang'er hadn't saved me, I wouldn't be where I am today." Murong Zhan said in a low voice, although she no longer remembered the secret words she said back then, but, She was only seven years old at the time, and it was normal not to remember.
Ye Zhen suddenly had the urge to laugh out loud. Her waiting, her deep affection, and her reluctance to turn back only got him a glass of poisoned wine, and his words were irrelevant. She didn't know the truth until after she died. She screamed, "Morong Zhan, if there is an afterlife, I, Ye Zhen, will renounce you, and I will avenge you in this life!"
She turned around and wanted to escape from the palace, she wanted to see her father, but no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't break free.
Her soul breath was trapped in this palace for some reason.
This hardship lasted for two years.
"Your Majesty, look, do you still remember this jade pendant?" Lu Shuang'er, who had become a noble concubine, took out a phoenix jade pendant with a color like flames, and asked him with a charming smile.
Murong Zhan glanced at it, showing a doting smile, "I gave it to you back then. I want you to come to me with the jade pendant. Unfortunately, I waited for you all day, but you didn't show up."
Lu Shuang'er leaned in his arms and said something.
It was the jade pendant that Ye Zhen had given to Lu Lingzhi. It turned out that he didn't give the jade pendant to Mo Rongzhan, but to Lu Shuang'er, and asked Lu Shuang'er to take her place.
Ye Zhen never knew that there was even more hatred than hatred.
She reached out to snatch Lu Shuang'er's jade pendant, suddenly, the jade pendant glowed like a flame, she only felt that the palm holding the jade pendant seemed to be on fire, and she actually felt burning pain.
"Ah..." Lu Wushuang screamed, and the jade pendant fell to the ground and broke into two halves.
As the invisible flame gradually disappeared, Ye Zhen finally broke free from the palace.
