Sure enough, after stepping into the depths of the bamboo forest, the guards behind Luo Wei and Emperor Xingwu shouted, "Someone!"
Luo Wei has also seen a vague figure shaking in the bamboo forest ahead.
The lights were lit, and two guards with knives held him on the ground was an old palace man.
"Your Majesty," Zhao Fu, the eunuch in charge of the Changming Palace who was on the side, only glanced at the old palace man, and said to Emperor Xingwu, "This is the old palace man beside Liu Guifei."
At this time, the old palace man was so mixed with leaves in the wind that he almost fainted.
"What's in that basket?" Luo Wei pointed to the bamboo basket beside the old palace man, "Could it be that she wanted to dig bamboo shoots to eat?"
Emperor Xingwu pointed his hand.
A guard stepped forward to check the bamboo basket. After he opened the black silk package in the basket, the guard backed away in fright.
Under the lights, everyone present saw a dead fetus lying in the black silk opened by the guards.
Luo Wei shouted, then covered his mouth with his hand, and looked at Emperor Xingwu with a look of panic.
"Don't be afraid," Emperor Xingwu only said Luo Wei was startled, took Luo Wei in his arms, and instructed the guards behind him: "You guys escort the third son back to Changming Palace."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?" Rowe's voice changed.
"Don't be afraid, it's alright," Emperor Xingwu's face was gloomy, but he still comforted Luo Wei in a soft voice, "Weier, you go back and wait for me first, okay? Be obedient."
Rowe was escorted away by guards.
Only then did Emperor Xingwu look at the old palace man lying on the ground with his hands behind his back.
Zhao Fu asked the palace servant, "What's going on here?"
However, the old man was speechless. A guard had already blocked her mouth with a cloth, fearing that she would seek death.
"Go back," Emperor Xingwu said, and after thinking about it, he added another sentence: "This matter cannot be shared."
"The slaves obey the order," Zhao Fu took the order.
Luo Wei did not see Emperor Xingwu that night. He knew that the emperor must be in the prison cell of Changming Hall. If he guessed correctly, the old palace servant in Eying Palace should return to Eying Palace. Go to Yingdian and tell Concubine Liu that everything is done. As for why he went all night, the old man would find an excuse to say that he heard someone outside the bamboo forest, so he hid all night before coming back. Emperor Xingwu would want to see how Concubine Liu would go on to perform this play. This is a very patient emperor, so he would not be angry on the spot, but was prepared to watch a play that showed the ugliness of the deep palace again.
After dawn, Emperor Xingwu came to Luo Wei's resting room, sat beside the bed and asked Luo Wei, "I heard you haven't slept all night?"
Luo Wei looked like he wanted to ask something, but he didn't dare to ask.
Emperor Xingwu sighed, and said softly to Luo Wei, "Weier, you shouldn't have seen what happened last night."
Rowe nodded immediately.
"Weier," Emperor Xingwu put Luo Wei in his arms, "this matter has nothing to do with you, in fact, the affairs of the harem have nothing to do with you, so you will be by my side in the future, and you will not care about what happens in the harem. Do you understand?"
Luo Wei said obediently: "The little minister obeys the order. In the future, the little minister will not go anywhere except Changming Hall."
"Scared you?" Emperor Xingwu hugged Luo Wei tightly, "Weier, I will show you."
"Look at what?" Rowe asked.
Emperor Xingwu said, "I will show you all the ugliness in this world."
Rowe shook his head vigorously.
Emperor Xingwu said, "Weier, your father protected you so well, but you always have to grow up."
Last night, the old palace man in the Eying Hall was examined. Emperor Xingwu was almost furious, but he didn't realize that he was surprised. He had never seen any conspiracy or conspiracy in the past few years as the emperor. But when the sinister nature of human nature appeared in front of his eyes again, Emperor Xingwu suddenly figured out one thing. He couldn't protect him and Zhijin's son forever, nor could Luo Zhiqiu. Luo Wei must have the ability to protect himself. Luo Zhijin hopes that their father and son will never recognize each other. Yes, this harem is a bloody slaughterhouse. Why did she let her son sink into it and never be born? "But Zhijin," Emperor Xingwu said to his deceased lover in his heart, "Weier always has to grow up. He doesn't know the dangers of the world. How do you want him to survive in the world? Is the Zuo Xiangfu just beyond right and wrong? ?"
