Regent's Palace.
Wen Qingzhu finally waited until Wen Mingliang came back.
"Mingliang."
Wen Mingliang looked at the memorial tablet in the mourning hall and slowed down.
It wasn't until he reached the magic case that he touched the name on the table with trembling hands: "Xin'er, it's my brother's fault for not being able to stay by your side."
"It's my brother who's wrong, it's my brother who's wrong, it's wrong..." Wen Mingliang burst into tears, knelt down in front of the memorial tablet, held his face in his hands, and kept mumbling.
When he had cried enough, Wen Qingzhu helped him up, pointed to a mahogany box next to him and said, "This is what Xin'er left behind. I have already read it. There is a letter left for you in it."
Wen Mingliang woke up suddenly, walked over quickly, and opened the box.
The various daily things that came into view were actually things he had bought for his sister before.
Picking up these things one by one, Wen Mingliang saw a letter without a wax seal at the bottom.
He picked it up and took out the letter, and as he read line by line, the tears flowed more violently.
Time passed slowly, and when Wen Mingliang calmed down, Wen Qingzhu accompanied him to the mountain behind Fengguo Temple.
Standing in front of the tomb, Wen Mingliang's mood completely calmed down.
Along the way, Wen Qingzhu had told him what happened that day.
"Sister Qi is not to blame for this matter. Xin'er has actually said long ago that her life will be returned to Master Huixin. I have asked her countless times to let her live well. Master Huixin will be fine. Now it seems , but it was Xin'er who was right, and I was always the one who was wrong."
Wen Qingzhu felt very distressed: "Ming Liang, what if that day -"
"There are no ifs!" Wen Mingliang turned around and looked at her intently and said, "Sister Qi, there is no need to blame yourself. I have always known that Xin'er would have made this choice today. It's just that under the emperor's feet, who has the courage to confront the emperor?" How about taking action?"
Wen Qingzhu said nothing. After the past twenty days of investigation, the matter had become very clear.
Wei Lin's appearance that day was not accidental, and she finally understood why Huixin said she didn't want to implicate her that day.
That person wants to kill him. If it doesn't work this time, there will be another time.
The two people looked at each other and knew in their hearts who had done it, but they had no evidence and could not question him at this time.
"How is the regent lately?" Wen Mingliang suppressed his sadness and tried to analyze the current situation as calmly as possible.
Wen Qingzhu looked at the door: "It's not good, but it's not bad either. All the emperor wants is to kill Fu Lie and me."
"Seventh Sister!" Wen Mingliang had previously thought that the relationship between the Regent and the Emperor would be in a stalemate, but he never expected that Wen Qingzhu would be implicated.
Wen Qingzhu turned around and smiled: "No one in this world is the same, not even me. You should have heard about the Emperor's illness."
Wen Mingliang nodded: "I know this. Xin'er said it many times in her letters."
After a while, Lu Tao walked in and reported: "Princess, there is news from the palace that the queen is awake."
"Are you awake at this time?" Wen Qingzhu thought for a moment and asked Lu Tao to go to the warehouse to select gifts and send them to the palace.
Looking back at Wen Mingliang, she said solemnly: "Since you are back at this time, you can just act in a play with me!"
"Seventh sister, just ask." Wen Mingliang agreed.
That evening, the news that the door of the Prince Regent's Palace had been broken into quickly spread throughout the streets.
The Princess Regent was stabbed, but still ordered the guards not to attack the assassin.
At night, Bai Di quietly came over to visit Wen Qingzhu. When he saw Lu Tao changing Wen Qingzhu's dressing, he was stunned for a moment.
"The princess is really injured?"
Wen Qingzhu's expression was a little downcast: "Ming Liang lost his only biological sister. He already showed mercy to me for my injury."
"But Miss Wen's death is not your fault at all!" Bai Di couldn't help but feel angry, and hurriedly came over to help Lu Tao deliver the gauze.
After bandaging the wound, Lu Tao put away the medicine box and retreated.
Wen Qingzhu was ready to ask: "Have you found out about the beauty who is hiding in the Emperor's golden house?"
"I have a clue. It was the news sent by Linlang, saying that the back looks very similar to the princess, and even the expression and behavior are exactly the same." Bai Di said, feeling more and more frightened by the emperor in his heart.
This incident happened almost a month ago, and Wen Qingzhu had not inferred this possibility in his mind, so it was not a surprise.
Lu Tao brought tea. Wen Qingzhu picked up the tea cup and took a sip before putting it down: "It seems that I need to see the emperor."
"But the emperor won't tell you to hand over that beauty, right?" Bai Di didn't know the name of the beauty, let alone the others.
Wen Qingzhu stood up: "I don't need him to teach that beauty, I just need to make sure that the beauty is not who I thought she was."
At the entrance of Qianyuan Palace, Wen Qingzhu was stopped by the Imperial Army.
Bai Di's face was cold: "This is the regent princess. If you want to see your majesty, even if you don't let anyone in, you should at least let us know!"
"Mr. Bai! This is the emperor's order! Anyone can pass it on, except the Princess Regent!" the captain of the Forbidden Army replied in a very rigid manner.
Bai Di still wanted to speak, but Wen Qingzhu raised his hand to stop her, then glanced at the forbidden troops and said calmly: "It is not difficult to get rid of the people I brought here."
The commander of the Forbidden Army turned blue. He knew very well the weight of Wen Qingzhu's words. He held it in for a long time before saying: "I understand the princess's strength, but this is the emperor's order..."
The main hall of Qianyuan Palace.
Jiang Yuanhan was looking at the person in front of him with a smile. He was being escorted by secret guards, kneeling on the ground, raising his head and staring at himself unyieldingly.
"The person who is favored by my sister is really proud!"
Wen Mingliang looked at the emperor in front of him and tried his best to hold back his anger and said: "I have clearly told the emperor that I will solve my own affairs by myself! I don't need the emperor's help!"
"But I need your help!" Jiang Yuanhan smiled cruelly and coldly, raised his hand, and the person holding Wen Mingliang pressed his head down.
Looking up, a woman who looked exactly like Wen Qingzhu walked out of the door.
She saluted respectfully and whispered: "Your Majesty, the princess is here."
I don't know if it was her words or her appearance that angered Jiang Yuanhan.
Jiang Yuanhan who was sitting immediately stood up, walked quickly to her, pinched her chin, and said viciously: "Didn't I tell you! You are my sister! Look at you, except that you look just like my sister. !Nowhere is she the same as my sister!”
"Another trash!" Jiang Yuanhan threw the woman aside fiercely.
The woman fell to the ground, feeling excruciating pain everywhere in her body.
But she didn't dare to make any sound, because Wen Qingzhu would never cry out in pain no matter what the situation was.
Someone from the palace hurriedly helped the woman up and led her away.
Jiang Yuanhan looked at the palace entrance. The people over there, my sister was outside, what if I didn't see her
At this moment, Wei Lin appeared behind him and suggested: "Weichen thinks it would be better to meet the princess."
"Oh? Why does Aiqing think that I should see her?" Jiang Yuanhan looked at him sideways, with a dark look in his eyes, vaguely filled with murderous intent.
Wei Lin has become more and more accustomed to the emperor's moodiness, and said very calmly: "It's nothing. The main thing is that the princess has been quiet for too long, and most of her actions have been exposed. According to her character, she will never Just sit back and wait for death, after all, You Duan is the one who knows the best about what happened that day at Fengguo Temple."
"You're right." Jiang Yuanhan nodded thoughtfully, and then told Xiao Fangzi to invite Wen Qingzhu in.
At the gate of the palace, the imperial guards and the Fu family's secret guards almost took action, but luckily Xiao Fangzi arrived in time.
"Wait! Your Majesty calls! Your Majesty calls!"
Wen Qingzhu looked up and found that Xiao Fangzi's hat was tilted because he was too anxious.
The Imperial Guards all moved out of the way, and Xiao Fangzi quickly rushed to Wen Qingzhu, panting and saying, "Princess, please come in."
Wen Qingzhu had a very good attitude towards Xiao Fangzi. While following him in, he asked, "How is the emperor doing recently? He hasn't done anything extreme, right?"
"It's okay, okay, princess, don't worry, the emperor spends most of his time on government affairs." Xiao Fangzi couldn't bear to see the relationship between the two people reach this point.
Wen Qingzhu understood Xiao Fangzi's intentions, but some things couldn't be changed with a few words.
She followed up and asked, "What about that small amount of time?"
Xiao Fangzi hesitated for a moment, but then replied: "Isn't it time to rest in Qianyuan Palace for the rest of the time?"
Wen Qingzhu smiled and followed him in without asking any more questions.
As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the main hall, she smelled a strange fragrance.
Different from fragrance perfume, this fragrance seems to be emitted by a rare medicinal material.
Seeing her pause slightly, Xiao Fangzi was worried that she would see something, so he quickly asked: "What's wrong with the princess?"
Wen Qingzhu looked away and continued to follow him in: "Nothing, just a little curious. I heard that the emperor favored a beauty, but no one has ever seen her."
"This... is indeed true." Xiao Fangzi didn't know how to explain it.
Wen Qingzhu thought for a while and said, "Speaking of which, it's time for the emperor to draft."
Before Xiao Fangzi could answer, Jiang Yuanhan's cold voice came from the front: "The princess seems to be very free, otherwise how could she have time to take care of my harem?"
Looking up and looking ahead, Jiang Yuanhan saw silver light flowing in his dark eyes.
After not seeing each other for a long time, Wen Qingzhu found that the person in front of her felt more and more strange.
Jiang Yuanhan stepped forward to salute, but Jiang Yuanhan did not embarrass her, but directly offered her a seat.
He turned around and asked: "I wonder if the princess comes to see me at this time. What's the matter?"
Wen Qingzhu covered her lips and smiled, her eyes moving with all her charm and tenderness.
Not to mention Jiang Yuanhan, Xiao Fangzi subconsciously stopped breathing when he saw this kind of woman's softness that was deliberately released.
Seeing their reactions, Wen Qingzhu was very satisfied. He touched his belly and said, "Your Majesty, I am pregnant and may have to stay in the palace to raise the fetus. If something happens then, I may not be able to help the Emperor."
"You're pregnant!" Jiang Yuanhan stared at her belly closely, and instantly thought of the time when his sister stayed in Xuanzheng Hall.
The hands under the sleeves clenched tightly, Fu Lie deserved it!
Damn it! Damn it!
Wen Qingzhu saw the murderous intent growing stronger and stronger on his body, and smiled: "I heard that the emperor has a beauty hidden here, why don't I help the emperor take a look, and if she is suitable, give her a place."
"The princess doesn't need to worry about this matter!" Jiang Yuanhan flatly refused, got up and left without giving her a chance to explain.
Wen Qingzhu stood up, looking at his retreating back, frowning: his illness was getting worse.
Xiao Fangzi followed closely and Bai Di frowned, not quite understanding why Wen Qingzhu mentioned this matter.
Is it possible that the beauty presented by He Zhuan was really allowed to enter the harem
Just when he reached the corner of Xuanzheng Hall, Wen Qingzhu saw Fu Lie waiting in front.
She walked up quickly, looked at his thin eyebrows, and said with great distress: "You have worked hard these days."
Seeing this, Bai Di stepped back sensibly, and Lu Tao and Yang Liu also stepped back ten steps away.
Fu Lie held her hand and said, "Are you pregnant?"
Wen Qingzhu couldn't help laughing and said: "You got the news so quickly, could it be that you really have people in Qianyuan Palace?"
"Just an excuse?" Fu Lie was not disappointed at all and breathed a sigh of relief.
He was actually very worried, after all, they didn't take any protective measures that time.
The capital is still in a whirlpool, and it is not suitable for Qingqing to get pregnant at this time.
