It turns out that the emperor has come to the palace.
Luo Zhiyi thought for a while, gritted his teeth, and finally walked towards the "Sinking Water Pavilion" the two girls mentioned.
Shenshui Pavilion is a pavilion built in the palace on Jingshui Lake in the palace. It is a good place to go in summer, but it is a bit colder in early spring.
Luo Zhiyi was dressed in servant clothes and lowered her head, but this time no one noticed her appearance.
It turns out that sometimes bowing your head does not mean being cowardly.
However, Luo Zhiyi was still blocked outside. The emperor came incognito, and the surroundings were of course heavily guarded. With Luo Zhiyi's current status, it was of course impossible for him to get in front of the emperor.
Luo Zhiyi had no choice but to retreat and wait outside.
However, this wait lasted only an hour. Luo Zhiyi was still worried about Jinhe. Looking at the exquisite pavilion on the misty water, Luo Zhiyi gritted his teeth, turned around and left, found the Lingfu connected with Jingshui Lake, and gently slipped into the water.
The weather in February was still cold and the lake water was icy cold. Luo Zhiyi's body was already weak, and now the ice-like water made her body numb from the cold.
She took a deep breath and dived.
The Shenshui Pavilion was built so delicately that the entire pavilion seemed to be floating on the water. Luo Zhiyi dived under the pavilion and then surfaced, breathing carefully.
Above the head is the waterside flower pavilion of Shenshui Pavilion. It is a stretch of the attic. It is full of exotic flowers and plants. It is also an excellent choice for viewing the scenery. The emperor and the ninth prince Bai Ye are sitting on this waterside flower pavilion. We drank together, but the guards stood far away in the attic.
Luo Zhiyi gently clung to the pillar under the Linshui Flower Pavilion. The conversation between the Emperor and Bai Ye could be heard above his head. Luo Zhiyi listened intently, but he heard that the two people were talking about his second brother's Luo Shang Alliance. .
"You are sure that Luo Yunxi has already contacted Luo Zhiyi." The emperor's voice was solemn and majestic. Even with his closest brother, he naturally had the majesty and dignity of being the supreme king in the world. This is the temperament that an emperor, after being in a high position, will inevitably have after a long period of time.
"Yes, in this palace, every move of everyone is too objectionable to the eyes and ears of my brother. Your Majesty is determined that since your pardon has been issued, she will definitely hand over the Luoshang Alliance obediently. The two brothers and sisters cannot I can only watch my father and brother’s heads disappear!”
"Alas! As long as the Luoshang Alliance belongs to me, then the Luo family will truly fall." The emperor suddenly said quietly: "I have worked hard for you this past year, Ninth Brother."
"Brother, what are you talking about? It's your duty to share your worries with your brother." Bai Ye said with a smile, his voice sounded clearer and louder, with Luo Zhiyi's familiar yet unfamiliar kindness.
Under the water, Luo Zhiyi clung to the wooden stake tightly, her whole body was so cold that she could not help but tremble, but she could only grit her teeth. If she made any movement and was discovered, she would be dead.
"Luo Heng has been able to stand firm for two dynasties. He is by no means easy to deal with. It will not be easy for you to deal with him this year." The emperor suddenly said with seriousness.
Luo Zhiyi in the water was startled after hearing these words, Bai Ye, fighting with his father.
"Actually, before that punishment with the cane, Luo Heng still didn't trust my brother very much."
"It was just a coincidence that time. Lao Wu's trick actually fulfilled your plan."
The bitter meat scheme,.
These three words rang in Luo Zhiyi's ears like thunder on a sunny day.
The bitter meat plan, it turns out, was fake from the beginning.
The world seemed to be sinking into death at this moment. All the images and sounds around her were silenced. Luo Zhiyi felt that her eyes were completely white, with occasional twinkling stars, which made her dizzy.
The two people above had no idea what Luo Zhi meant anymore, and a voice in their mind screamed fiercely: "You stupid woman, you are fake, everything is fake, he was just using you from the beginning to the end. "
Luo Zhiyi could no longer control himself, and his breathing became heavier.
Suddenly, there was a splash of water, followed by a pain in the back and a tightening in the neck. Before Luo Zhiyi could even cry out in pain, he was lifted out of the water and fell hard onto the wooden floor of the waterfront pavilion.
"There are assassins." With a shout, the emperor and the guards from the Nine Princes' Palace rushed forward. While guarding the emperor, they drew their swords and stood on guard. The other guards quickly started searching around.
"There's no need to look for her, she's the only one." Bai Yeqing's more pleasant voice sounded, but when it fell in Luo Zhiyi's ears, it felt colder than a thousand years of cold.
Luo Zhiyi was lying on the floor in a miserable state, his back hurting like bone marrow, and when he touched it, it was full of blood.
Looking up, he saw Bai Ye's soft sword in his hand. A line of blood dripped from the tip of the sword, soaked into the wooden floor, and disappeared instantly.
"Who is this?" The emperor saw the embarrassed woman on the ground, and when he saw the horrific scars on her face, his heart jumped: "Luo Zhiyi." His face was shocked and angry, and he was about to have an attack.
Without saying a word, Bai Ye grabbed the whip wrapped around one of the guards' arms and whipped it hard.
Luo Zhiyi was shocked and subconsciously raised his hand to block it. Burning pain hit him along with the shadow of the whip.
The sound of whips resounded in Linshui Flower Pavilion: there was a "crack" sound, accompanied by the flying shadow of the whip, blood spattered, clothes torn to pieces, but the tumbling woman did not make a sound.
After twenty lashes, the woman on the ground had become a bloody person. Even though these guards were used to seeing bloody scenes, they all showed unbearable expressions at this time. Bai Ye dropped the whip in his hand and said coldly Look at the woman on the ground.
The pain all over his body had become numb. Luo Zhiyi bit his lip and looked at Bai Ye fiercely with a pair of deep beautiful eyes. The thick hatred in his eyes shot towards Bai Ye so nakedly.
"Come here, pull down this woman who has evil intentions and disturb the Holy Master, and put her in a water prison." Bai Ye looked at her resentful eyes and said calmly.
The surrounding guards all looked at the emperor. With the emperor's presence, even the guards of the palace did not dare to act rashly according to Bai Ye's order.
Bai Ye finally came back to his senses, looked at the emperor, and knelt down on one knee: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have overstepped my bounds."
The emperor waved gently to the surrounding guards: "Do as the prince says."
Luo Zhiyi was held up by the guards, but a pair of beautiful eyes were fixed on Bai Ye: "Bai Ye, it was you who framed my Luo family." Luo Zhiyi's voice was weak, But Bai Ye was startled. He looked at Luo Zhiyi, his face was as dark as water, but he didn't say anything.
After everyone retreated, the Linshui Flower Pavilion returned to tranquility. However, the splattered blood on the ground, the blood that penetrated like water, dyed the bottom of the Linshui Flower Pavilion a faint pink.
"Save her." The emperor's voice was cold and strange at the moment, and he turned his back to Bai Ye.
Bai Ye suddenly knelt down on one knee: "Your Majesty, forgive me, it was my brother's people who did not do things well that made her run out and startled the Holy Master..."
"It is a capital offense to disturb the Holy Master." The emperor's voice was calm, but Bai Ye, who knew him well, knew that the emperor was angry.
"My brother is also thinking about the emperor. The Luoshang Alliance has not yet been completely obtained. If she dies at this time, who knows what Luo Yunxi will do. The emperor wants her life, so there is no rush to do it at this time. Yes." Bai Ye quickly explained.
"Ninth brother is still thoughtful, but the emperor brother is too worried." The emperor's voice returned to the friendly friendship, patting Bai Ye on the shoulder: "Then she will be left to you, but no more mistakes can be made. "
"Brother, I obey." Bai Ye nodded and said with a smile,
