Concubine Wu was stunned for a moment, then panicked, and said loudly, "Don't come out, go, go, and never come back!"
The first prince heard hostility in his eyes, and impatiently increased the strength of his hands.
"Aren't you coming out yet? Aren't you going to see Concubine Mu? You don't even know how much pain she is having now, listen..."
He grinned grimly and continued pressing hard.
The concubine Wu screamed in pain, her face turned pale immediately, she even had difficulty breathing, and couldn't speak at all.
Lianhua couldn't hide any longer, and fell gently from the beam.
He raised his hand and took off the cloak and hat covering his head, and looked worriedly at the blushing Concubine Wu, "I'm coming out, let go of Concubine Mother."
The eldest prince sneered, but he didn't let go of Concubine Wu as he said, instead he shackled Concubine Wu's neck and stepped back.
It was like a signal, countless guards poured in from outside, surrounding Lianhua.
"If you keep your hands tied, I can still let you spend your old age with mother and concubine for the sake of you and my brother."
As he spoke, he smiled again, with killing intent flashing in his eyes, "But if you are disobedient, I won't be able to keep you!"
Now that the public opinion is fermenting and people's complaints are boiling, the father has already acquiesced in giving up his seventh son, which is why he dared to be so presumptuous in the palace today.
Lianhua's eyes darkened, and his heart was filled with depression. He took a deep breath, and managed to control his murderous thoughts.
This elder brother who had always been gentle and generous to him seemed extremely strange to him. He had come here for the truth, but at this moment, he wished he had never known the truth.
"Why?"
"I have already converted to my Buddha, and it will not and cannot affect your great cause."
Lianhua couldn't figure out why he did this.
The eldest prince sneered, and looked at him with jealousy, "You have no intentions, you only want to be your monk, but other people have intentions!"
"You don't know it now, but it's hard to guarantee that one day you won't be persuaded, and you won't have thoughts that you shouldn't have. By then, I will have nothing, and it will be too late!"
The more the eldest prince thought about it, the more resentful he became, but the murderous intent in his eyes only flashed for a moment, and he hid it well. He still grabbed the concubine Wu's neck so that she could not speak, her face flushed from holding back, but her voice softened slightly, and said softly, "So I have to act first. Seventh brother, you won't blame me, will you?"
Lianhua couldn't take it anymore when he heard this, because of this, he had his master killed, slandered his younger brother, and now he is still cruel to his mother.
"You're in trouble!"
Lianhua raised her hand violently, and the rosary in her hand slowly lifted into the air.
He lowered his eyes and silently recited a few verses, and in an instant, the rosary that rose into the sky emitted a burst of golden light.
Everyone felt their eyes stabbed, and when they were about to make a move, they felt that the golden light seemed to have power. At the moment when the golden light was shining, they pushed everyone back a few steps.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lianhua raised her palm and grabbed Concubine Wu who was being shackled by the eldest prince.
How could the eldest prince return the hostage to him, grabbing hold of the person and hastily hiding behind him.
"ah… "
Concubine Wu was grabbed by the neck by him, and she staggered back involuntarily, suffering from pain and discomfort, tears streaming down her cheeks.
After all, Lianhua was worried about Concubine Wu, her weakness was in other people's hands, he couldn't see Concubine Wu hurt and crying, she was a little tied up, after several times, she already had more wounds on her body.
Concubine Wu felt distressed when she saw that the two children fell out of her stomach. They were supposed to be brothers who loved each other, but now they were brothers.
One of her sons threatened the other with her.
Concubine Wu was ashamed and remorseful, when she saw Lianhua intending to disarm and surrender because she was concerned about her, she felt the pain in her heart, and bit the eldest prince's arm fiercely.
"ah!"
The eldest prince was caught off guard and was bitten, almost biting off a large piece of his belt. He grunted in pain, and was about to raise his palm to strike, but Lianhua quickly pulled Concubine Wu to protect her behind her.
Just when the two sides were confronting each other, it was about to explode.
"Concubine Jing is here!"
The shrill voice of the little eunuch pierced the night sky like a fast arrow.
Concubine Jing Niao Tingting came slowly, looked at the two sides facing each other, she didn't panic, she was only slightly taken aback, and said with a smile, "Sister Wu Concubine, are you rehearsing for the big night?"
Concubine Wu twitched the corners of her mouth in embarrassment, and tremblingly blocked Lianhua behind her petite body, trying to hide it from her, "Why did my sister come here at this time?"
Here, only the eldest prince is confident.
He did this at the behest of Fu Cheng, otherwise he would not have dared to be so blatant and threaten Concubine Wu.
Concubine Jing's words immediately broke his composure.
"I was sleeping with the Holy Majesty, and suddenly I had a dream. In the dream, I saw my sister's Buddha light shining brightly here, and the flowers were in full bloom. The Buddha smiled while holding the flowers. It seemed that there was a Buddha's command. Then I got the Holy Majesty's order to come here to see."
Concubine Wu's eyes were filled with joy, and before she could speak, the eldest prince's face suddenly changed, and he said gloomyly, "Msg Concubine Jing, are you trying to protect the demon monk?"
Concubine Jing smiled softly, her eyes were full of resentment, "I am a fairy of Nine Heavens who descended to earth, communicated with the heavens, and came here to receive the decree from heaven. The eldest prince's slander can make me feel uneasy."
"Ma'am!"
Eunuch Chen An came in a hurry. He wiped the sweat off his face, and handed over a rolled up imperial decree with a flattering smile, "You forgot this..."
After seeing the imperial decree, the eldest prince's face turned pale. He looked at Lianhua who was being protected by the concubine Wu unwillingly, twitched the corner of his mouth, and left with a flick of his sleeve.
When the eldest prince's people were completely evacuated, Concubine Wu's strong body softened and she was about to fall to the ground.
Lianhua grabbed her with a big palm and pulled her into his arms.
Concubine Jing came up hurriedly and anxiously, taking the opportunity to help Concubine Wu, her jade hand covered Lianhua's hand.
Lianhua's drooping brows and eyes were tinged with gloom, but in order not to annoy Concubine Wu, she didn't make any movements.
This immediately made Concubine Jing feel happy.
She pressed down a few times, fearing that Lianhua would be unhappy, she hurriedly released it, but her cheeks were slightly red, and she said softly, "Sister, for safety's sake, you and Lianhua should stay with me for a few days first."
Concubine Wu reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, "It's His Majesty's will, he should..."
"Concubine Wu." Chen An approached at the right time, and smiled worriedly, "You should follow Concubine Jing first, this... this is to save you and the Seventh Prince, this edict... is false..."
Concubine Wu's complexion changed drastically, and she looked at Concubine Jing in shock, seeing her eyes dodge, there was nothing she didn't understand.
She used to resent this woman who dotes on the harem for taking all of Fu Cheng's thoughts, but now it is the woman she hates the most, who does such treacherous things for her.
Concubine Jing is risking her life to help their mother and son.
"Thank you sister for your help."
Concubine Wu was moved beyond measure.
Concubine Jing hurriedly shook her head, and gently held her hands, "Sister first go to rest in my palace, that is Master Lianhua... I have to arrange another place to settle, when the Holy Majesty asks about the responsibility, it is impossible to do anything to you and me."
"Exactly exactly..."
Concubine Wu is in a turmoil right now, it's almost Concubine Jing who says what she says.
Lianhua, for the sake of Concubine Wu, naturally would not refute.
After Concubine Jing settled Concubine Wu properly, she wanted to take Lianhua to the secret room to settle.
Lianhua paused her footsteps, clasped her hands together, and gave a long sigh of the Buddha's name, "Amitabha, thank you for your help. There are many problems here, all because of this little monk, little monk..."
He showed his intention to leave, which made Concubine Jing feel great grief, she rushed over regardless, and hugged him tightly from behind, "No, don't go, you stay here, I can protect you, just like you used to protect me, Lianhua, I like you, I only have you in my heart, I..."
Lianhua frowned, raised her hand to press her arm and pulled her away, her face was slightly angry, "Empress Jing, please respect yourself!"
"How do you make me respect myself?"
Tears welled up in Concubine Jing's eyes, and there was resentment and love in her eyes, "It was you who broke into my heart desperately, it was you who made me fall in love with you, made me think of you day and night, tortured me..."
Lianhua only felt that every word and every word she heard was full of filthy words, her face flushed with anger, and she lightly reprimanded, "Your Majesty, you are stunned!"
He raised his breath and wanted to leave the place of right and wrong, but just as soon as he raised his breath, his heart suddenly crawled like insects and ants, his heart itched unbearably, his complexion changed slightly, he hurriedly sat cross-legged, the rosary beads between his five fingers shone slightly, coating his whole body with a layer of golden light.
Concubine Jing saw that beads of sweat were constantly dripping from his face and forehead, his face was already stained by lust, he had always been abstinent, and at this moment a person who was not stained with the world was infected with lust, it was so alluring.
She knelt down slowly on the ground, leaned over to touch his face, and said softly, "Don't struggle anymore. I heard that the medicine came to kill the gods. The Buddha blocked the Buddha. Lianhua, why don't you follow what you think in your heart and make friends with me? As long as you break the precepts, you will know that not being a monk is the best thing in the world..."
While Concubine Jing was speaking, she finally couldn't help it, she slowly approached him, wanting to kiss him...
