Yang Xuan was already waiting in the car, wearing the same black formal dress as the princess, surrounded by green beads and shining brightly. () Seeing Su Li's plain face and simple clothes, a trace of surprise flashed across her face. She looked at the two people's forbearing expressions with probing eyes. A playful smile appeared on her lips, but she said nothing.
The three of them were silent along the way, even Yang Xuan, who always talked a lot, actually didn't say a word. Soon we arrived at the palace.
The bright red carpet stretched from outside the palace gate to the golden palace, stretching for more than ten miles. The guards on both sides bowed their heads in a solemn and solemn manner. Dongfangze is majestic and steady, heading towards the position that will eventually belong to it. Su Li followed him, looking at the festive colors around her and the faces of the civil and military officials with different expressions. The expectations she once had in her heart have now turned into cold ridicule.
Above the Golden Palace, the emperor's face was gloomy, and he was sitting on the dragon chair, supporting his still-unrecovered body. Seeing Su Li entering the palace without makeup and clothes, all the civil and military officials were surprised. Su Xiangru's expression changed even more, and he was filled with doubts. He almost couldn't help but stepped forward to ask why, but because of this grand scene, he had to suppress his thoughts. of anger. He quietly raised his eyes to look at the emperor, and saw that the emperor's face had darkened, and the displeasure in his eyes was very obvious. Su Xiangru's heart sank, but Su Li seemed unaware and walked straight to the place that belonged to her but did not belong to her and stood there with an expressionless face.
If she came here today for no other purpose, she would never want to enter the palace to see this scene!
When the auspicious time comes, rituals and music are played, and after the official reads the prince's edict, the official court ceremony begins. The ceremony proceeds in an orderly manner. Dongfangze receives the prince's seal and receives congratulations from all the officials. Everything goes so smoothly!
Su Li watched all this with cold eyes, feeling unspeakable irony in her heart. She cast her gaze towards the supreme power in the Golden Palace. The emperor, who was obviously weak, and the Prince of the East Palace who stood under his Majesty Dan, formed a sharp contrast. Compared. Perhaps, in the near future, that position will be replaced.
He finally got what he wanted and had the country.
But her heart is so devastated that there is no way back
.
Suddenly, the chief of ceremonies heard a call: "Princess Zhaohua and Princess Mingxi come forward to listen to the order—"
Su Li gathered her thoughts for a moment, and before Yang Xuan could take a step, she was already kneeling respectfully in the center of the hall.
Dongfang Ze's face changed slightly. Seeing her pure and beautiful face, with a dead look on her face, an ominous premonition immediately arose in his heart.
The emperor took a breath and said in a deep voice: "Today's canonization ceremony, you did not dress according to the regulations, but you are dissatisfied with the canonization?"
Everyone knew that Princess Mingxi and the prince were in love with each other, and they went through life and death many times. Unexpectedly, Princess Zhaohua came out to steal their love. Although her status had not changed, it did hurt her face.
Everyone in the hall looked at Su Li, except Su Xiangru, as if they were waiting to watch a show to see how this first-class female official, who was higher than them, would respond to the emperor's accusations. If you dare to express dissatisfaction with the emperor's imperial edict, you are asking for death!
The corners of Zhan Wuji's cold and stern eyes slightly raised, and the cold light in his eyes flashed away. When he touched Yang Xuan, he immediately lowered his eyes, unable to see the look in his eyes.
Li Fengxian frowned. For some reason, looking at Su Li's calm but indifferent expression in white clothes, he suddenly thought of someone, a woman he loved very much but didn't even know her real name - Rong Xijin! I remember the first time he saw her. She was as young as Su Li, but she had gone through many vicissitudes of life. She looked indifferent and cold to the bone. She was clearly a sign of death! His eyes trembled slightly, Li Fengxian looked at Su Li, and he couldn't help but feel a twinge of pain. This woman is more like Xi Jin than Li Su!
Su Li raised her head, looked directly at the superior emperor, and said coldly: "Mingxi doesn't dare. Mingxi went to the palace in disguise, and for other reasons, I asked your majesty."
Dongfang Ze vaguely guessed what she was going to say, and his heart sank. His thin lips moved slightly, and he immediately said to her through sound transmission: "Su Su, I know you blame me in your heart. If you have anything to say, talk to me when you get back!"
The corner of Su Li's lips curled up slightly, but she turned a deaf ear and said loudly: "Mingxi implores Your Majesty to terminate the old engagement between Mingxi and His Highness the Crown Prince."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was startled, and all the officials were in an uproar, and they all looked at the new crown prince of the East Palace who was in high spirits just now. Dongfang Ze's expression changed, his eyes were cold, and he stared at Su Li who was kneeling on the ground, his handsome face tense.
Su Xiangru's face was even darker. He had been planning for half his life, waiting for Dongfang Ze to step onto the throne of Jinluan one day and rise to prominence from then on. Unexpectedly, Su Li proposed to terminate the engagement at such a critical moment.
! Is she out of her mind?
The emperor looked at her in shock, and the mysterious destiny flashed through his mind, and he shouted hastily: "You and the prince have always had a good relationship, why do you want to terminate the engagement?"
Su Li said calmly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise and wise, and Princess Zhaohua is extremely intelligent. The two of them are a match made in heaven. Mingxi, however, feels shameful and does not dare to climb high. Please forgive me and take back your fate."
"impossible!"
Before the emperor could speak, Dongfang Ze had a sullen face and categorically refused. He strode to Su Li's side and said in a deep voice: "The wedding date has been announced to the world for a long time, how can we take it back for no reason? Princess Mingxi does not need to belittle herself. You will always be the best in my heart! Your identity is the Crown Princess, and this will never change!" Suppressed anger surged in his chest. His firm and domineering tone, which was completely undeniable, resounded coldly through the hall, instantly suppressing all comments.
All the officials were as silent as cicadas, quietly looking at Su Li.
Su Li heard the hint of warning in the words, smiled coldly, and said decisively, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your love. Mingxi is very frightened. But Mingxi has made up her mind, please take back your life." After that, she felt deeply. Kowtow, leaving no room for discussion.
Dongfangze suddenly frowned, his heart was blocked, and he couldn't hide the pain in his eyes. He repeatedly hinted, why did she still insist on having her own way? Did she really want to break up with him in public? Suddenly he remembered that on the day Dongfang Zhuo forced the palace, she had broken up with him in public. Although it was just a show, it had already made him heartbroken. This time, he could clearly feel her irreversible determination, as if the trust that was once indestructible And affection is gradually fading away.
Dongfangze gritted his teeth, his face became darker and darker, and he stared at her, speechless.
The emperor rubbed his forehead, but his eyes narrowed. Princess Mingxi insisted on breaking off the engagement. Could it be that... Dongfang Ze had violated destiny? If it was just because of Yang Xuan, she should have broken off the engagement when she found out she was pregnant. It can be seen that she didn't seem to feel dissatisfied at that time. What was it that changed her mind
After a change of mind, the emperor said in a deep voice: "How can the royal decree be changed at will? This matter is a serious matter. Let me think about it and discuss it later."
"Your Majesty!" Su Li's eyes darkened and he said coldly: "When Ming Xi chose her husband, the whole world was paying attention. His Highness the Crown Prince once promised Ming Xi that he would never betray me. Unfortunately, now he betrays me first, and Ming Xi dares to do so. , I beg your Majesty to issue an order to terminate the engagement between Ming Xi and His Highness the Crown Prince. We will marry separately in the future and have nothing to do with each other anymore.
! "
The cold female voice, decisive and firm, reaches everyone's ears clearly. Everyone was in an uproar again. Su Xiangru could hardly hold it back and started to teach him a lesson. Yang Xuan suddenly took a step forward and said with a smile: "The princess said that the prince betrayed you, I am afraid that it is an exaggeration! The prince has a heavenly appearance and will be the master of the Sheng Kingdom in the future. He will marry more concubines to spread the branches of the Sheng Dynasty. Inheriting a legacy that lasts for thousands of generations is a major orthodox event, how can we talk about it as a negative?"
She stared at Su Li closely, as if she wanted to see her true thoughts.
Su Li smiled coldly, "What the princess said is true. It's just that I, Su Li, am not lucky enough to do my best for the Sheng Kingdom. Su Li hopes that the princess will give birth to a grandson for our Sheng Kingdom as soon as possible to fulfill her responsibility."
Yang Xuan was slightly startled and subconsciously covered her stomach.
The emperor became angry and shouted: "Mingxi! How can marriage be a piece of cake?!"
Su Li prostrated and said resolutely: "Ming Xi and the Crown Prince are no longer in love. I hope your Majesty will make it happen!"
The affection is over!
Every word was like a knife cutting into his heart. Dongfangze was shocked all over and looked at her with wide eyes, as if he didn't want to believe that this was what she said!
She had always thought that she was such a smart and sensible person. Based on the trust between them and her understanding of him, even if he didn't explain, she wouldn't have made such a fuss about Yang Xuan! His chest couldn't help rising and falling, and he could no longer hide his inner anxiety and shock! It was unimaginable that this woman really wanted to break up with him! Even if he had hidden something from her, she had also hidden it from him! He had suppressed the fact that she was the leader of Shen Clan and thought of every possible way to protect her, but she wanted to leave him at all costs! Dongfangze couldn't help but wonder, if he insisted on disagreeing, what would she do next? Do you want to tell the world that you are the master of Shen Clan
He took a step forward and almost grabbed her arm. Yang Xuan's figure flashed in front of him like a ghost!
Dongfang Ze paused slightly and looked at Yang Xuan's back in front of him. The gloom in his eyes was like a dark cloud, disappearing into the invisible depths in just a blink of an eye.
Yang Xuan looked at Su Li and smiled coldly: "The princess is so eager to break off the relationship with the prince. I'm afraid... there is another reason?!"
Everyone around was stunned, and the emperor's cold eyes looked back and forth at these two equally outstanding women.
.
Su Li looked directly at her and smiled expressionlessly: "What do you think, princess?"
Yang Xuan smiled, but today her smile that was always cheerful contained a bit of mystery. Su Li's heart sank, and Yang Xuan turned to the emperor, "Your Majesty! Zhaohua also has something to report." Yang Xuan suddenly spoke up, she said today Dressed in the solemn attire of a woman from the Sheng Kingdom, she was very elegant and beautiful in her movements, but a sharp light suddenly appeared in her beautiful eyes, sweeping over Su Li's figure.
"Say." The emperor frowned, vaguely feeling that there were many troubles today, which was not a good omen.
Yang Xuan said loudly: "Zhaohua discovered that someone stole the secrets of the Sheng Kingdom with evil intentions."
The officials were in an uproar. The emperor was taken aback and sat upright immediately, "Is this happening? Who is so bold?!"
Yang Xuan said: "Your Majesty, it is Princess Mingxi."
Dongfangze's eyes suddenly became sharp and he looked straight towards Yang Xuan, his eyes filled with clouds. Yang Xuan smiled sweetly and said: "Prince, there is no need to glare at me like this. Originally, I thought that she and His Highness were of the same mind, so she would not act deviantly. But today she broke up with the prince in public, and Yang Xuan saw that she had bad intentions, so she had to say Yes." She said it seriously, as if it really happened.
Su Li sneered: "As a princess of a country, don't talk nonsense! You say that I have evil intentions, what evidence is there?"
Yang Xuan said proudly: "There is a secret hidden in your room, which His Royal Highness has always wanted to know. Do you dare to find it?"
Su Li's heart skipped a beat, and he stared at her and said, "If you want to incriminate someone, why bother?"
Yang Xuan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Whether I have wronged you, we will find out once we investigate!" She turned to look at Dongfang Ze with a smile, "His Royal Highness, you can send someone to investigate immediately. You will definitely find what you want in the princess's room." thing."
Dongfang Ze's expression changed several times, his eyes darkened, and he heard the emperor yell angrily: "Zhan Wuji, take people to search immediately!"
"Yes!" Zhan Wuji's lowered eyes flashed slightly, and he quickly took the order and left.
The hussar general moved quickly, and soon the men turned around. Evidence is presented.
Dongfangze was shocked, that was not something from Shenmen, but an extremely exquisite tip bag! At the husband-choosing banquet, she once made a topic with the brocade bag, ordering the four princes to put it in something that could conquer the world.
! The tip bag she presented was exactly the same as the one in front of her!
"Your Majesty, this item was found in the princess's room. Please take a look at it." Zhan Wuji handed over the brocade bag. Su Xiangru sneered: "There is such a thing in the boudoir, why is it strange?!"
Zhan Wuji had no expression on his face. He flipped his hands and mixed the bag, and two things fell out of it!
Not spices, not dried flowers, just a carefully drawn drawing and dark, thick iron material!
Dongfang Zedeng's eyes were shocked. This object was actually a secret that he had been pursuing without success! At that time, he was guarding the city gate to investigate, but because Su Li accidentally hid in the coffin, he failed to catch Lang Chang in the end.
He had always suspected that Su Li had this kit, but he could never find any evidence. Unexpectedly, it was discovered by Yang Xuan. She lied to him again! With her intelligence, she must have guessed the reason. She didn't hand it over to Lang Chang, so she naturally had no intention of collaborating with the enemy. But she kept it and didn't hand it over. What on earth did she want to do? Or... want to leave strong trading conditions for Shen Men? His heart suddenly hurt, and he looked at her in confusion.
Zhan Wuji said coldly: "Your Majesty, this drawing is for a special weapon recently developed by our Sheng Kingdom, called 'Flying Rain'. By improving the manufacturing of new hidden weapons of the martial arts family, ten arrows can be fired simultaneously, and ten bows can be fired in succession. .Because this kind of weapon is extremely powerful and needs to be made of special iron material." As he said that, he raised the dark iron material, and everyone sighed.
The emperor's face visibly darkened, his eyes as cold as a knife.
"More than half a year ago, His Highness the Crown Prince discovered that the secrets of new weapons had been stolen. He pursued it all the way, but to no avail. Unexpectedly..." He turned and glanced at Su Li, his eyes extremely gloomy.
"I didn't expect that Princess Mingxi was so capable that she could keep this secret in her pocket. If this princess hadn't overheard her secret conversation with her maid, she wouldn't have discovered this huge secret!" Yang Xuan continued in a cold voice. .
Su Li couldn't help but laugh. This man and woman were actually cooperating perfectly, pressing forward step by step. They vowed to take her down today? She couldn't remember when she discussed this with Wan Xin, and Yang Xuan could hear it! No wonder there is no such thing among the things in Shenmen. It turns out that it has already been in Yang Xuan's hands!
All the officials couldn't help but talk about it. Su Xiangru's face was livid at this moment and he was completely speechless.
Princess Mingxi has been bold and arrogant more than once, and now she dares to hide the secrets of the Sheng Kingdom. This move cannot escape suspicion no matter what. The emperor was so angry that he wanted to protest, but he was not strong enough. He was so angry that his head was dizzy. He shouted with trembling fingers: "Preach the decree."
! To deprive Su Li of the title of Princess Su Li Mingxi, this girl was so bold that she committed the following crimes many times and dragged her down..." Before he could finish his words, his eyes suddenly darkened, and with a loud bang, he fell forward and rolled down Danbi.
"Your Majesty!" Everyone in the palace was shocked and rushed up in unison. Dongfangze immediately called for someone and carried the emperor back to the palace with all his hands and feet.
Su Li knelt down, watching everyone busy, and stood up with a sneer without saying a word.
There is no doubt about Su Li's ability to deal with the crime, but the decree to punish him was unexpectedly interrupted. But no one knew what the second half of the sentence the emperor had left unfinished was.
Is it imprisonment, beheading or something else? Everyone was at a loss, and no one dared to move. Finally, someone couldn't hold it any longer and carefully replied: "Your Majesty's decree has not yet been announced... Then what should I do with Princess Mingxi...?"
Dongfang Ze glanced at him and the man immediately fell silent.
Su Li looked forward, expressionless. After a long while, his usual deep and melodious voice was heard coldly: "Crown Princess Su Li, I am quietly thinking about my past in the Guandong Palace Forbidden Garden. I will wait until the truth is found out before I make my decision."
What a closed forbidden garden! What a quiet time to reflect on your past! The emperor had fainted, and his words were imperial edicts, and no one dared to refute them.
Su Li raised her eyes slightly. Bright white light, like snow through the window, reflected the luxurious interior of the palace, with gorgeous yet cold colors. She couldn't help but sneer. Anyone in the world might suspect her of collaborating with the enemy and treason, but he would not! Dongfang Ze wanted to use this excuse to imprison her in the Prince's Mansion, thinking that she would be able to submit obediently. He really underestimated her, Su Li!
"Su Li! Why don't you thank the Crown Prince for your kindness!" Su Xiangru's low-pitched scolding sounded in his ears. It was really the tone of a father's lesson. However, this person is not qualified!
Su Li raised his head coldly. His black eyes were like mirrors, reflecting the cold light. He looked past Su Xiangru and smiled at Dongfang Ze: "It's time to thank the prince for his great kindness! The evidence is conclusive for collaborating with the enemy and treason. This is a major crime against the nine tribes. His Highness the prince only wants to It's really kind of you to shut me up in the forbidden garden to meditate on my mistakes!" She smiled softly, with dazzling mockery in her eyes.
The sentence "The great crime of killing the nine tribes" made everyone around him take a breath. Is this woman crazy
Su Xiangru's face changed suddenly, and he was sweating like rain. He stared at her with angry eyes, as if he wanted to slap this unfilial daughter to death who would harm him!
"Your Highness, please don't listen to her nonsense. Su Li...she's crazy!" Su Xiangru shouted urgently, "Someone come quickly and take her down."
! "
Sheng Qin and Sheng Xiao glanced at Dongfang Ze's complicated expression, and both stepped forward to respectfully say: "Princess, please."
Crown Princess... What an ironic title! Well, it might be more beneficial for her to live in a forbidden garden without being disturbed by anyone! Su Li laughed mockingly, stopped looking at Dongfang Ze, turned around and strode out with head held high. I didn't see the gaze cast from behind, it was so complicated that it felt like my heart was hurting!
A trace of displeasure flashed across Yang Xuan's face, and Dongfang Ze saw it all in his eyes. His eyes were cold, and he hugged her waist suddenly, whispering: "Are you unhappy?"
His sudden closeness made Yang Xuan startled, and she looked away unnaturally. She subconsciously glanced at the cold-faced general Zhan Wuji, who was standing quietly aside, and saw his thick eyebrows furrowed and his eyes quickly lowered. A cold smile immediately flashed across the corners of Dongfangze's lightly pursed lips, and it disappeared in an instant.
Yang Xuan lowered his head and said, "Zhaohua doesn't dare."
Dongfangze smiled faintly, his deep eyes were dim and unpredictable, and his slender fingers gently touched her unswelled belly. Yangxuan couldn't help but tremble slightly. He said without emotion: "Being angry is not good for the fetus. Be careful. " His tone seemed serious but not serious, as if he had no other intention, and he seemed to just say it casually.
A trace of doubt flashed in Yang Xuan's eyes, and she hurriedly said: "I know."
A canonization ceremony finally came to an unhappy end.
Su Li, the princess of Mingxi, was publicly exposed on the day of the prince's canonization ceremony for stealing the secrets of the Sheng Kingdom with evil intentions. The emperor was so angry that he deprived her of the title of princess and was imprisoned by the prince Dongfangze in the East Palace Forbidden Garden to await his fate. As a result, the emperor fell ill again. After discussion by the Ministry of Rites and hundreds of officials, Dongfangze decided to marry Princess Zhaohua ten days later to celebrate the emperor's happiness.
Nowadays, the East Palace is the busiest place in the entire palace, and everyone is busy preparing for the prince's wedding. Only the Plum Garden of the Forbidden Garden was deserted, and not a single person could be seen for a long time.
Su Li, dressed in white without makeup, sat quietly at the table. The branches swaying in the cold wind in front of the window cast shadows on her face through the window. The half-dark light made it difficult to distinguish the expression on her face. In her hand was the news that Qin Hengxin had inquired about. She quickly browsed it and threw it into the brazier, where it turned into ashes in an instant.
Wan Xin whispered: "Everything has been prepared according to the lady's instructions. Qin Heng discovered something strange in the water of Lancang River, which may help our plan."
Su Li's face was cold, but his eyes were resolute, "I'm going to pass on the order and let Qin Heng find out everything. There must be no mistakes in this operation."
"yes
. "
Her black eyes looked into the distant blue sky, and in the depths of her eyes that no one could see, a trace of cruelty flashed through her eyes. Su Li said silently in her heart: She will never let go of anyone who owes her a debt!

A few words:
I have been sick for several days, and today is the worst. I am even more uncomfortable than the high fever of 39 degrees Celsius the day before. I can't eat or take medicine. I vomit when I drink water. Now I have a low fever and I am in a state of collapse at any time. I am not saying this to gain sympathy, I just want to tell everyone my true situation now.
Maybe I'm really not suitable for writing serialized articles. The speed is too slow and all I have to deal with is time and body. As a result, I ruined myself like this. If I didn't love these stories so much, I don't think I would persist like this.
Although I shouldn't, I did have the thought of giving up when I was most uncomfortable. I knew this was irresponsible, so I felt very ashamed when I was awake. At the current update stage, there is only the last chapter left in the first part (Shengguo Chapter). Dongfang Ze’s wedding and Su Li’s jumping into the river. All the hatred, misunderstandings, and conflicts will have a preliminary end here, including Su Li’s. The fact that it is Li Su will also be revealed.
This article is quite long, and as long as I still have a life left to fight for, and as long as you don’t mind my slowness, I will finish it well. If you think it's too slow, you can just watch the ending of the first part as the final ending. The ending of the first part is 20,000 to 30,000 words long. I still need to revise it. Please give me about half a month! Thank you so much!
