"He is..." The moment Kuang Qingwu turned around, the soldier standing next to Kuang Shihan suddenly took out the Sebu from his mouth. Kuang Shihan wanted to remind his son without hesitation, but just then After saying two words, the soldier stuffed them back in again!
However, the short words had already made Kuang Qingwu look at him - the look was familiar indifferent and distant, but it turned complicated after a moment.
Holding Qiu Jinglan's sword, Kuang Qingwu can't decide who to take next
Is it his biological father who once abandoned him but still loved him and protected him for so many years? Or is he his father-like mentor who in his memory has always been cold-hearted and warm-hearted, teaching him earnestly for many years
Qiu Jinglan was waiting not far away with a smile, without any hint of urging, but full of malice...
The north wind blows across the high platform, the wind is like a knife. Cold sweat gradually broke out on Kuang Qingwu's forehead. His eyes took turns wandering between Kuang Shihan and Ren Ziyong. Finally, he slowly walked towards the latter!
"He is my son after all!" Kuang Shihan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that even if his son chose this way, Qiu Jinglan would not let them go, let alone let Kuang Qingwu kill Ren Ziyong - but , is it better than the son choosing to kill his father but letting Ren Ziyong, the traitor, go
He followed Kuang Qingwu closely, but saw him walking slowly to Ren Ziyong, staring at him for a long time, silent and motionless.
"I was blind. I didn't notice Ren Ziyong's ambition back then. I thought he was following Qingwu and could help my son... Oh, I'm afraid this kid is very sad now!" After seeing Kuang Qingwu's gaze, he suddenly felt He knelt down and kowtowed three times to Ren Ziyong seriously. Kuang Shihan felt quite uncomfortable in his heart, "It's just that such a vicious and treacherous person, why are you kneeling down to him?! This child recognizes him as one of his own, so much Relentless!"
Then he felt sour again, "I don't know if he regards me as one of his own at this moment?"
But that's not what made him sad the most - Kuang Qingwu, who stood up after kowtowing, had no intention of killing Ren Ziyong with his sword. Instead, he looked at Ren Ziyong again, turned around resolutely, and faced Kuang with his sword. Shihan is coming!
"You!" Kuang Shihan looked at his expressionless son, eyes wide open for a moment, "You hate me so much that you want to kill your father for a traitor?! Even if you don't know he is a traitor now, he is After all, I’m an outsider! I’m the one who gave birth to you!”
Qiu Jinglan's eyes were mocking, until Kuang Qingwu closed his eyes and pierced Kuang Shihan's chest with his sword, he coughed - the previous soldier took off Kuang Shihan's cloth again!
"..." Kuang Shihan opened his mouth, and blood gushed out, dripping along his beard and onto his clothes. It quickly turned dark brown in the cold wind, but he didn't say anything.
Kuang Qingwu has already made his choice. If he is allowed to know Ren Ziyong's true face again... Kuang Shihan thought sadly: "It would be easier if you didn't know anything, and it would be the last time I love you!" "
"It is natural that the father's debt should be repaid by his son!" As if aware of the huge resentment behind Kuang Shihan's pained silence, Kuang Qingwu turned pale and said in a hoarse voice, "No matter how nice Qiu Jinglan's words are, she will never let you go. My father and son. But Mr. Leshan is innocent... Since you and I must die, why bother Mr. Leshan?"
He felt that this explanation might make Kuang Shihan feel better - I still remember that you are my father. I don't really hate you so much that I want to kill you myself, but I just don't want to drag Mr. Leshan to die with our father and son - but I don't know that Kuang Shihan felt even more sad after hearing this!
Ren Ziyong's identity was almost blurted out!
But he could still endure it, but Qiu Jinglan would not give up this attack that had been brewing for a long time!
"Hurry up and get the hot soup. Sir, the wind has been blowing for so long. Don't feel the cold!" Looking meaningfully at Kuang Qingwu's stiff back, Qiu Jinglan said with a smile, her tone of voice caring and affectionate, "These It’s been really hard for you sir over the past few years... I still let you blow the wind here for so long today... "
"Although I gave up my martial arts skills in order to deceive Kuang thief, and my body is not as good as before, I have been pampered these years, and my foundation is still there." Kuang Qingwu has given Kuang Shihan a fatal blow, and Ren Ziyong no longer pretends After falling unconscious, Qiu Jinglan untied the rope for herself, and Shi Shiran stood up, "It's nothing if you just know how to do it, sir, don't worry!"
Kuang Shihan, who was on the verge of death, smiled miserably and closed his eyes. He couldn't bear to see his son's face after the truth was revealed -
On the high platform, the wind howled.
Kuang Qingwu turned his head in horror and looked at the so-called "Mr. Leshan" who was being supported by Qiu Jinglan himself! Ren Ziyong did not look at him, but looked at Qiu Jinglan with gentle and indulgent eyes, and said angrily: "You have been working very hard these days, remember to calm down and don't be too excited about the scene in front of you... When Mrs. Lian handed you over to me, she told me to protect you. If you fail, I will have no shame to see the princess in the future! "
That expression and words were like the pampering of an elder, with infinite expectations and care. Kuang Qingwu never thought that the person he regarded as his father and master would have such an amiable side!
At this moment, his world was turned upside down in an instant! ! !
On the occasion of Qiu Jinglan's wanton revenge, in the middle of the capital, in the imperial city.
In the small kitchen of Zishen Palace Beique Palace, Qiu Yilan was cooking vegetables helplessly: "I told you that I shouldn't have been soft-hearted in the first place!"
I don’t know whether the food she cooked really made the emperor appetizing; or whether Princess Yongfu coaxed her well; or the emperor did not dare not show respect when he heard that the cook was the queen’s direct nephew-in-law. In short, in just a few days, she had already This is the fifth time Princess Yongfu has brought her into the palace to cook!
"I'll let Nineteen go talk to the queen later and arrange some concubines for the emperor to serve him. Maybe this way he won't be picky about his diet..." When the dishes were done, Qiu Yilan rubbed her sore arms and asked the palace to People went to Sheng, and while walking towards the side hall where they bathed and changed, they thought angrily, "Yongfu is so unlovable! Unlike Chunxiao, she also wants to honor her parents, but they know how to learn cooking from me, not her When my parents want to eat, they call me over to cook it!”
Who would have thought that she had finished washing up in the side hall, and had just opened the door to bid farewell to Queen Jiang and leave the palace, when Ni Jin ran over in a panic and grabbed her arm: "Young madam, come quickly with your maid!!!" "
"What's wrong?" Ni Jin suddenly pulled, almost causing the unprepared Qiu Yilan to fall. She quickly stood up and asked in surprise.
"Your Majesty is not well!" Nijin gritted her teeth and whispered, "It was because I ate the food you cooked - I asked you to come over immediately!"
Qiu Yilan was shocked and then furious: "It must be Queen Mother Gu who did it! I want to see how they frame me!"
Although the Funing Palace where the emperor lived also had a kitchen, in order to avoid suspicion, Qiu Yilan used the small kitchen in the Queen's Palace to cook for him when he entered the palace. Inspections, delivery of food, food tasting... are all handled by the Queen's side. She doesn't care about anything except cooking. Not to mention that Empress Jiang's impression of her is getting better and better these days, but even if her impression is not good, the empress cannot be stupid enough to frame the crime of regicide on her niece-in-law - is this different from saying that the Jiang family has committed regicide? !
It is conceivable that this is clearly a thief shouting to catch the thief!
Qiu Yilan followed Nijin to the outside of Beique Hall and saw the phoenix chariot waiting for her.
After entering the palace, Queen Jiang thought that it was Empress Dowager Gu who did it: "That old woman is so anxious that she jumped over the wall! Yilan, don't worry, Fourth Aunt, I will definitely seek justice for you!"
The Queen's face was extremely ugly, and it could be said to be ferocious and distorted - no wonder, although she had all kinds of resentment towards Queen Mother Gu, she never expected that Queen Mother Gu would be so cruel as to kill her son!
You must know that although Empress Jiang is very cruel to her enemies, she can always ignore her nephew's daughter-in-law, her natal sister-in-law, etc., but she can't get enough of her own flesh and blood, Princess Yongfu! For a person like the Queen who regards her children as her life and death, and a person like Queen Mother Gu who sacrifices her own son for her own glory and wealth, it is light to break her bones and spread ashes!
"Fourth Aunt, what's going on in Funing Palace now? How is Your Majesty?" Although Qiu Yilan had a clear conscience, she didn't dare to take it lightly. After all, this was obviously the death struggle of the Queen Mother's party. This was the moment of the final blow. , What can’t the Queen Mother’s Party do? So even though Empress Jiang gave her a guarantee, she still hoped to know the specific situation and think about the countermeasures by herself, "I remember Yongfu is over there?"
While Empress Jiang asked Ms. Lin to put on the phoenix crown for her, she sneered and said, "It was Yongfu who managed to send the news! The old woman of the Gu family is still blocking the news and will wait until all the civil and military officials arrive at Funing Palace before she will summon her." You and me... I hope that old woman is not stupid enough to touch Yongfu, otherwise I will not let go of her even in front of all the civil and military officials!"
Following the Queen's phoenix chariot, when they arrived at Funing Palace, sure enough, most of the courtiers had already arrived - outside the palace, they were listening to Jiang Tianqi's angry question: "Since Your Majesty said that the dish cooked by your nephew was not good, Then why haven’t the Queen and her nephew, who are making meals in the Queen’s Palace, arrived yet! But you, the Queen Mother, and the Imperial Concubine arrived first, and even called us, but haven’t sent anyone to invite them yet? The Queen and your nephew are here!"
"Hmph!" Queen Mother Gu said coldly in a voice that was obviously much older but still majestic, "Why are you so anxious? The Queen and the Qiu family are both in the palace now, so it doesn't take much effort to call them over! And your Jiang family How prominent he is now, but if all the ministers are not gathered together, what happened to the emperor today will not spread to this Funing Palace!"
"What the mother said is really a big joke!" Queen Jiang, who had just got off the phoenix chariot, immediately went into battle mode after hearing this, walked into the palace with her head held high, and started with one sentence, "If your daughter-in-law's natal family is so prominent, your majesty's every move can be prevented from spreading. After leaving Funing Palace, as my daughter-in-law’s brother said just now, why is it that my wife is late because she is ill and anxious, but it’s you, the queen mother, and the Gu family... "
Glancing at the silent Concubine Gu beside Queen Mother Gu, she asked solemnly, "It's rare to come to Funing Palace in normal times, but today, it's such a coincidence?!"
