Back To My Husband’s Youth - Chapter 158
The front of the imperial palace was surrounded by the Forbidden Army, but the back was very quiet.
Even the palace servants who used to be sweeping and waiting here are gone. I don’t know if it’s because they are too crowded and difficult to manage, so they are all locked up, or for other reasons… Indeed, no one came across.
She was stubborn when she was young. She always took Changping to play around, and relied on being favored by her uncle and aunt. This imperial palace… is often used as a place for them to hide and seek.
She knows that there are many kinds of pear trees in the imperial palace, and there is a small hole under the wall of the courtyard closest to the pear tree. This small hole has a unique shape, and because there are often palace people here, there is no need to worry about someone coming in. Emperor Riqingxi passed by and felt that this hole was a bit clever, so he left it, and no one filled it.
Now it is convenient for her.
Gu Wuyou held his breath and carefully walked through this small hole. After all, he has grown up and can pass through easily before, but now he has to shrink his hands and feet to pass through.
She didn’t dare to enter rashly for fear of someone inside.
After observing for a while, she was sure that no one was patrolling in the yard, and she quickly went through the small hole and stood up.
The moment she got up, she was dizzy again. She didn’t know if she hadn’t rested well, or she had eaten less recently. She had this problem all the time. She didn’t dare to delay at this time. She gritted her teeth and shook her head again. , When he was more clear-headed, he ran inside.
…
And in the bedroom at this time.
Wang and Empress are with Changping and De’an. Emperor Qingxi has not yet awakened, but is still lying on the dragon bed.
Cigarettes kept in the Boshan furnace. Dean came from outside with a bowl of soup medicine in his hand. His eyes were reddish, and he was still cursing in his mouth, “These bastards! They, how dare they?” , How dare you do such a thing?!”
Changping is still young, and now he is under house arrest here. His small face is pale. Hearing De’an’s words, his face is a bit more panic. A pair of small hands tightly hold the sleeves of the Queen and refuses to loosen it. open.
Queen Wang’s expression has always been very calm, neither panicked like Chang Ping nor angry like De’an. She raised her gentle hand and patted the back of Chang Ping’s hand gently, and then reached out with De’an and said lightly. :”give it to me.”
“……Yes.”
De’an respectfully offered the decoction.
Seeing that the Queen’s spine was straight, proud and unyielding, she looked down to feed the medicine for Emperor Qingxi, and her eyes were red somehow.
The empress empress in his memory seems to have always been like this. She was born arrogant and would rather not bend. At the beginning, she was separated from her majesty because of the concubine. For so many years… no matter what her majesty is, she never came to see her.
Let those newcomers and the old be spoiled.
But at this time, only the queen and the empress stayed here, taking care of your majesty. The concubines and masters had begged the king to detour as early as the incident happened, and all of them were hiding far away, for fear of injuring themselves.
Thought of this.
De’an felt hatred again.
He gritted his teeth and said: “Your Majesty treats King Jin so well, even…” He seemed to think that this was wrong, he paused, and then said, “How can he do such a jerk?!”
Chang Ping thought that the former gentle brother had turned into that Shura appearance. Not only did he not care about friendship and trapped them here, but he also called the imperial army to guard outside… They still do so, and I don’t know what the prince brother is like. Her eyes were reddish, her small hands tightly held the Queen’s arm, choked up and said: “Mother, I’m afraid.”
“Don’t be afraid.”
Queen Wang said softly, and then continued to look down to feed people the medicine, and said faintly: “He won’t deal with us so quickly.”
De’an questioned: “What is he waiting for?”
“Naturally, I am waiting for an opportunity to let him live in history and be upright…” The Queen’s voice was very low, but her eyes were a little dark. “Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone to great lengths to invite all the female relatives into the palace.”
“Female dependents…”
De’an stunned: “Isn’t he trying to threaten the ministers outside?”
Before anyone could answer, he himself reacted first. Yes, after so much effort, King Jin is naturally unwilling to bear the infamy of killing his father and brother. “But now the forbidden army in the palace is obedient to him, Wei Guogong and Li The generals are all going to fight Beidi again, he…”
The sound stopped suddenly.
Changping noticed the sudden freezing atmosphere in the hall, and raised his ignorant face, “What’s the matter?”
De’an looked at the figure of Queen Wang and muttered: “Could it be that Bei Di was also caused by King Jin?”
“do not know.”
Queen Wang’s voice was very quiet and calm, “This palace just feels strange. Bei Di has never committed a crime for so many years, but now he has made up this reason for us to send troops… And as soon as Wei Guogong and Li Xiaojun left, the capital went out. It’s up.”
“Previously, the officials knelt down and asked your majesty to let him let go of the prince. This palace felt strange.”
“This was originally just a quarrel between the father and son because of political opinions, but someone insisted that his majesty and the prince renounced.”
Pity.
Although she was suspicious, she was a step too late.
otherwise……
She looked at the man lying on the bed, her eyes darkened again, otherwise she wouldn’t fall into this kind of field.
“This……”
De’an was a little panicked, paled, and muttered: “What the **** does King Jin want to do!”
He had a vague guess in his heart.
General Li Xiaoming had a good relationship with the prince because of the Leping princess. Now that his majesty was poisoned, some people outside said that the prince was dissatisfied with his majesty. After using the poison, he waited for his majesty to die and he could take the position.
Now the Jin dynasty put all the female relatives in the court in the palace.
If General Li Xiao came back at this time and happened to be convicted of collaborating with the prince inside and out, then King Jin could naturally take advantage of this upper position!
by that time……
These people who knew the truth are all dead, and to outsiders, King Jin is a great hero in clearing out the rebels and protecting the female family members. The courtiers outside will naturally support King Jin as the upper hand!
Thinking of this, Dean’s whole person became trembling.
Queen Wang finished feeding the decoction in her hand, holding a kerchief to wipe off the decoction that fell on the corner of her mouth for Emperor Qingxi. When she turned her head to the side, she saw Dean’s appearance, her expression remained unchanged, but her words sank, “Presumably at this time. , Someone has already delivered a letter to General Li.”
“What, what about this?”
De’an panicked: “If General Li Xiao really came back, wouldn’t it…” Before he could finish his words, he heard a noise from inside.
When the three people in the hall heard this sound, their expressions changed.
Chang Ping’s face turned pale, and the hand holding the Queen’s arm used a little more force, Dean’s face was even more sinking, he took out a blade from his sleeve, and slowly approached there.
But after the noise, there was no sound in Lima.
Just like they were jealous, Gu Wuyou did not dare to relax, for fear that there were other people in the temple, that not only could not save the uncle and them, but her own life was also in danger, and she walked out a little bit holding her breath, just showing up. Shadow, a knife stabbed at her.
Fortunately, Gu Wuyou kept raising his mind, and hurriedly went to the side to hide.
Without waiting for someone to stab him for a second time, she caught a glimpse of the visitor and hurriedly shouted in a low voice: “President De’an, it’s me!”
The fierce wind stopped above his head, followed by De’an’s startled voice that was a little unbelievable, “Princess Leping?”
“it’s me.”
Gu Wuyou breathed a sigh of relief. Just about to ask, he saw Queen Wang and Chang Ping appearing behind De’an. When they saw them, her eyes immediately turned red. Without waiting for her to speak, Chang Ping He ran over, hugged her tightly, and cried, “Cousin.”
Realizing that Chang Ping’s whole body was trembling, knowing that she must be frightened, Gu Wuyou patted her on the back while softly saying, “Hey, don’t be afraid.”
Queen Wang’s expression finally changed when she saw Gu Wuyou. She glanced behind her and saw that the door was closed tightly. She hurriedly took Gu Wuyou’s hand and walked aside, pressing down her voice and asked, “How are you? Will be here? Shouldn’t you be with those fateful wives?”
Changping also knew that it was a time to cry, and staying aside with tears, he also looked at Gu Wuyou with teary eyes, “Yes, cousin, surrounded by a lot of people, how did you come here?”
“I noticed something was wrong, so I sneaked over.”
Gu Wuyou thought of the forbidden troops outside, and his heart was still beating fast, “Auntie, what’s the matter? How could my uncle be poisoned? Why are you under house arrest here? Also, what’s the matter with those forbidden troops?”
“I’ll talk about these things later.” Queen Wang frowned, shook her hand, and whispered: “You shouldn’t be here, go back, go to Cheng’an Temple, and be with those fateful wives, so you have a chance to survive. .”
“aunt!”
Gu Wuyou’s eyes reddened anxiously, “It’s all this time, where can I go back? The palace man must have talked with him just now, and it’s useless for me to go back!”
Queen Wang also knew that it was not safe to let her go back now, but it was even more insecure to let her stay here.
Listening to the sound coming from outside, her expression changed, and she quickly pushed Gu Wuyou into the room, then took out something from a secret grid in the room and handed it to her, suppressing the voice, and said in a solemn voice: “Take it. This thing, immediately went out of the palace to find Li Qinyuan and told him that King Jin had rebelled.”
“what?”
Gu Wuyou was struck by lightning, his face pale, and he was dazed in place.
King Jin’s rebellion, this…
how can that be? !
The sound from outside was getting closer, and the Queen Wang couldn’t ask anything more, and pushed her again, then dropped the curtain and led Chang Ping to walk out.
When Jin Wang Xiao Ke came in.
The hall returned to the previous appearance. De’an was at the side. Wang Huang sat on the dragon bed at the back, while Chang Ping still held the Queen’s arm and buried most of her body in her arms. She seemed to be frightened by the approaching footsteps, and even her body shook slightly.
“Father is not awake yet?”
Xiao Ke glanced at the man on the dragon bed. He probably felt that the man had been drowsy for a long time. He curled his eyebrows and asked Zhao Chengyou behind him, “Didn’t you say there is nothing wrong with this medicine?”
Zhao Chengyou said warmly: “Your Majesty, don’t worry, the minister has tried this medicine before, and it is indeed no problem. The toxins in your majesty’s body have been cleared, and it will probably not take long to wake up.”
Hearing this, Xiao Ke finally let go. He hates his father, but again, the father-son friendship of more than 20 years is not fake. He just wants this position. As long as the father does not hinder him, he just lets He solves the people who shouldn’t exist, he will naturally regard him as the Supreme Emperor and serve the elderly with respect and filial piety.
“President De’an.”
Xiao Ke’s gaze swept across Wang Empress and Changping, then looked at De’an, “A person who knows the current affairs is a brilliant man, and you are not bad to this king. As long as you give the jade seal to this king, this king will naturally treat you well.”
When Dean heard this, his whole body trembled with anger.
He was not afraid of offending Xiao Ke, and said sharply: “My lord, what on earth is your Majesty sorry for?! You even colluded with foreign ministers to treat your majesty like this!”
Xiao Ke’s expression changed slightly, and when he spoke again, he was no longer mild, and said coldly, “What can I sorry for this king?!”
“How did my mother and concubine die? Don’t you know the most?!” When he spoke, he turned his gaze to the Queen and Queen, as if he was about to strip her alive, his hands were squeezed into fists, and the whole person was furious. She gritted her teeth and said: “If it weren’t for this woman, if it wasn’t for the royal family behind her, how could that old godly woman send someone to kill my mother and concubine!”
“My father and the emperor love my mother and concubine the most. If it weren’t for this woman, I should be the prince, the next Da Zhou emperor!”
Queen Wang frowned when she heard this.
She didn’t mean to say more, just patted Changping’s back lightly to relieve her fear.
But Dean, after a moment of stunned, trembled: “You, how did you know this? Who said it to you?” Now it doesn’t make much sense to say this, he said anxiously: “Master, this is all the same. It was the empress dowager’s own intention. When the incident happened, your majesty and the empress were not in the palace. They didn’t even know about it. If they knew it, they would definitely not let this happen!”
“Think about the love your Majesty has for so many years, you, how can you bear it?”
“It’s the Queen Mother, I have never been sorry for you for so many years!”
Seeing Xiao Ke’s expression shifting slightly, De’an took a few steps forward, knelt before him, and cried with his sleeves clutched: “Master, while there is still room for recovery, please stop. Your Majesty will take care of you, as long as If you are willing to look back, he will definitely not blame you!”
Xiao Ke looked at De’an, then went over to look at the man on the dragon bed, as if thinking of the past, his face showed some struggling expressions.
But as soon as his mind got up, Zhao Chengyou’s plain and gentle tone came from behind him, “His Royal Highness, there is no turning back arrow in the bow, and your Majesty’s body… don’t you know the best?”
Yup……
There is no turning back arrow!
And even though he kept his father’s life, he was afraid that things would be revealed and allowed Zhao Chengyou to do that… He gritted his teeth, and despite how Dean was crying, he still said in a cold voice: “I don’t want to be crushed anymore. .”
“For so many years, I have experienced enough of the taste of living under people!”
“As long as Xiao Jingxing is not there, I will be the prince of Da Zhou, the emperor of Da Zhou, and my father will always forgive me.”
Dean didn’t expect Xiao Ke to be so crazy. He wanted to say that, but the man had already spoken first, “Even if there is no Yuxi, this king can still ascend the throne!” After he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left, and Zhao Chengyou still looked down , Follow people’s steps to go out.
Just about to cross the threshold, he suddenly stopped and glanced behind him.
In the dark cyan curtain…
It seemed that something was guiding him.
His eyes were slightly deep, and his steps stopped like this. Just as he was about to go there, he heard Xiao Ke say: “Chengyou, what’s the matter?”
“It’s okay.”
Zhao Chengyou retracted his steps and followed Xiao Ke out.
On the way out, Xiao Ke frowned and asked him, “Are you sure Li Qinyuan will come back? He is not a fool, but we will know what we intend to do after investigation.”
He was quite worried. If Li Qinyuan did not return, Xiao Jing’s crime of conspiracy would not be so decent.
But Zhao Chengyou was very sure, “He will come.”
Xiao Ke stopped and turned to look at him, “Why are you so sure?”
Zhao Chengyou smiled, and then stopped. He stood beside Xiao Ke, holding his hand behind him, while his eyes were looking at the blue sky above his head…because that man was General Li who served the country and the people.
Thinking of other people’s evaluation of him in his previous life, Zhao Chengyou’s mouth raised a touch of ridicule.
Xiao Ke didn’t wait for his answer, but still asked. A soldier came to report in a hurry, “Master, Master Zhao, Princess Leping is gone!”
When Zhao Chengyou heard this, his face changed slightly.
Thinking of the cyan curtain just now, regardless of Xiao Ke’s reaction, he turned and walked towards the imperial palace, but De’an and the others were shocked when he came back, “You, what do you want to do?”
De’an was scared in his heart, but he was still holding on, and scolded: “You are just a running dog next to King Jin, and now the prince hasn’t spoken yet, you…”
Zhao Chengyou didn’t even look at him, waved De’an’s obstruction, walked forward quickly, holding his breath and raised the cyan curtain.
But there is only a half-open window, where is there anyone?
Only a trembling pearl flower fell on the ground, like a little pitiful being left behind by the owner.
On the official road.
The army is still moving in the direction of Beidi.
They have been walking on the road for a few days, and the days of trek make everyone’s face look bad, lest they all fall down before they get there, Li Qinyuan asked everyone to rest for a while, holding water and dry food. Go to visit Li Cen Shen.
Seeing his ugly face, he said solemnly: “If you are not allowed to come, you have to come.”
Li Cen Shen took the things and smiled, “I’m not going to the battlefield, it’s okay.”
He knew that he was not in good health now, and he didn’t force it, so he helped with the plan. Naturally, there was also some worry and distress for Li Qinyuan. He was afraid that he would have an accident on the battlefield, so he always wanted to take advantage of his being alive. Help a bunch.
Li Qinyuan knew that he was a stubborn temper, so he didn’t bother to talk about it. He just wanted to discuss the battle situation sent from the lower north.
Fu Xian came in with a sullen face. He is now Li Qinyuan’s lieutenant. This will greet Li Cencan, and then he said to Li Qinyuan in a deep voice, “Qilang, something has happened in the capital.”
Seeing his expression on Li Qinyuan’s face, his heart sank.
He didn’t speak, but took the note in Fu Xian’s hand, and saw the line “The King Jin rebelled, come back quickly” on it.
Li Cen saw the look of the two juniors and asked, “What happened?”
Li Qinyuan did not answer immediately, but looked at the note in his hand for a while, then took the wine bag and poured it directly on the paper. Soon, the blank back of the note revealed a dense line of words, and the three of them saw the book on it. The content and look are all changed.
Fu Xian trembled: “King Jin, this is to force Qilang to go back and kill Qilang and the prince in the name of treason!”
After he finished speaking, he looked at Li Qinyuan with an ugly face, and said solemnly: “Qilang, you can’t go back! Since King Jin and Zhao Chengyou have set up this round, it can be seen that the capital is already in their pockets. If you go back now, you will die. undoubtedly!”
How could Li Qinyuan not know?
He holds the note in his hand, and now there are only two ways, one, according to the original plan, to quell the Beidi war, many things in the capital have nothing to do with him, he can still be his general… and the other is to rush back immediately. Capital.
“Shichiro!”
Fu Xian grew up with him since he was a child, how could he not know his temperament? Seeing him curling his eyebrows and thinking, he knew that he had a plan in his heart, “Do you know what the crime of treason is?! If you go back now, you…”
“I can’t help but go back.” Li Qinyuan raised his eyes and looked at him, pursing his lips, “As you said, the capital has become the possession of King Jin and Zhao Chengyou, which means that those people in the capital are now in a very difficult situation. Danger.”
His family, his friends.
especially……
He’s pretty brutal.
Li Qinyuan thought of Gu Wuyou, and tightened his hand holding the note. They all stayed in the capital. Now their life and death are uncertain. If he doesn’t go, what should they do?
Looking at Li Censhen, before he opened his mouth, his father looked at him and said, “Now you are the coach, and I respect all your choices.”
When Li Qinyuan heard this, he took a deep breath, “You continue to lead your troops to Beidi, and I will bring people back to the capital.”
Fu Xian had to open his mouth, but Li Censhen stopped him and looked at Li Qinyuan and said, “Go, Beidi has us, you don’t have to worry, you…” He paused, and his voice suddenly became a little dumb, “Safe journey. “
Li Qinyuan nodded heavily.
When something like this happened in the capital, he didn’t dare to delay wasting time. After he went out, he found his cronies to talk about the matter, follow their opinions, whether to leave or stay, and finally chose 3,000 people.
When he was about to leave, he turned his head and glanced deeply at his father.
Seeing the man standing under the tree and looking at him, he didn’t say anything in the end. He directly raised his whip and beat his horse towards the capital.
…
Gu Wuyou didn’t know that he had been running on the road for a few days.
It was dark and bright, and bright and dark. She didn’t dare to stop, because she was afraid that once she stopped, she wouldn’t be able to get up again, and she was also afraid of chasing soldiers behind her. Since leaving the imperial city through a small hole in the palace that day, she dared not go home, dressed up, bought a horse and drove out of the city with the jade seal.
She didn’t even dare to choose official roads, she could only choose remote paths.
When she was hungry, she would pick some fruits to eat, and when she was thirsty, she would drink some dew and river water. The string in her mind had been tight, and she knew that her mental state was very poor.
But she still gritted her teeth and hurried to the north.
The vision in front of her was getting blurred, Gu Wuyou gritted her teeth and shook her head, but her condition was really bad. For fear of falling down at this time, she gritted her teeth and pulled out the hairpin on her bun, and then pierced her arm. go with.
The blood gushed out immediately.
She screamed in pain, but the vague sight was finally clear.
Just like this, she held the reins in one hand and the hairpin in the other. Whenever she couldn’t hold it any longer, she stabbed her arm with the sharp hairpin.
“General,”
The cronies handed Li Qinyuan the news that people had asked to inquire earlier, “Now that the fateful wives have been invited to the palace, the specific situation is unknown, but the people sent by the Weichen inquired… Zhao Chengyou had sent a few days ago. People go out of town secretly, it seems they are looking for someone.”
Find someone?
Li Qinyuan frowned. As soon as he was about to speak, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of a fast horse coming up on the trail not far away. All the cronies around him naturally noticed that they took out their sabers to protect Li Qinyuan’s body.
The horse was rushing like crazy, and the man on the horse, with his shaggy head, could only tell from the delicate figure that she was a woman.
The man seemed to be at the end of his mental breakdown. He wanted to stab his arm again, but he didn’t even have the strength to raise his hand. The whole person was faltering. At this moment, Li Qinyuan sitting on the horse seemed to perceive something.
He stared attentively, and when he saw half of the woman’s cheek, he shouted in surprise: “It’s brutal?!”
When Gu Wuyou heard this familiar voice, she raised her tired eyes. When she saw Li Qinyuan’s figure, she wanted to raise the corner of her lips and smile at him, but found that such simple actions could not be done.
But she was finally relieved.
she was,
Found him.
Gu Wuyou let himself close his eyes and fell into a coma.
