Chapter 123 There is a Punishment Called Punishment
Imperial Palace, Cuizhuyuan.
"Be quick with your hands and feet. Your Majesty has ordered that the Cuizhu Garden be renovated. All expenses will be in accordance with the princess etiquette. Don't neglect it!"
"Yes Yes Yes!"
After Xiao Junze left, Cuizhuyuan became lively. The eunuch of Shangshanfang came with people to clean it, replacing what should be replaced, clearing out what should be removed, and adding what should be added.
"Princess..." Chunlan helped Chaoyang treat the wound and sighed. "It seems that Your Majesty still has old feelings for you."
Chaoyang sneered and said nothing.
"Princess Chaoyang, Your Majesty has ordered that the Cuizhu Garden will be repaired tonight and you will be temporarily accommodated in Qingshan Pavilion."
Chaoyang's hand holding Chunlan stiffened, Qingshan Pavilion... that was the residence of the sixth prince Xiao Minyan.
Xiao Junze was warning her that he could even kill his brothers...
"Princess?" Seeing that Chaoyang's expression was not good, Chunlan quickly helped her up. "Are you okay?"
Chaoyang shook his head and smiled, she was fine...
…
Queen, Kunning Palace.
Shen Yunrou finally moved into Kunning Palace as she wished, even though Xiao Junze had not yet officially made her the queen.
"My father, what do you say?" Shen Yunrou walked around Kunning Palace with a smile.
After going around in circles for so long, she finally got her wish and sat on the position of queen.
This Fengtian, this world, is the only mistress.
"The Prime Minister is ill..." the maid said nervously.
Shen Yunrou frowned. "Father is sick? Why did you just tell me now?"
"It's the Prime Minister. He didn't let us tell you because we were afraid that you would be worried." The maid spoke again. "The Prime Minister lets you make your own decisions."
Shen Yunrou was silent for a moment and sat on the bed. Her father was often sick during this period. What happened?
Or is the vixen trapped in the secret room by her father dead?
Narrowing his eyes, Shen Yunrou asked the maid to come over. "Have someone go back to the mansion and check your voice."
"yes!"
Shen Yunrou relied on Shen Qingzhou. Shen Qingzhou gave her her noble status and stable and noble life, but she was too ambitious and wanted too much.
She would never allow her father to suddenly decide to retire at this time.
The previous dynasty and the harem complemented each other. If she wanted to occupy the dominant position in the harem and survive, she absolutely needed Shen Qingzhou's power and blessing from the previous dynasty.
Otherwise...how long can she stand firm in this deep palace?
…
Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Sir, you haven't come out for a whole day, will something happen?"
"What should I do? Do you want to go in and take a look?"
Several people looked at each other, no one dared to approach the study.
Shen Qingzhou didn't come out for a day, something must have happened.
Secret room.
Shen Qingzhou curled up on the ice bed, holding Bai Li's body tightly in his arms.
Even if she dies, she is still his, Shen Qingzhou's.
"Ali... this time, you really made me angry..." Shen Qingzhou spoke in a hoarse voice, stood up and sat on the edge of the bed, his face turned pale.
"Ali...what you owe me, let Chaoyang pay it back for you." Shen Qingzhou stood up, and the air pressure around him condensed to the extreme.
The study door was opened, and the servants waiting nervously outside were startled and did not dare to approach Shen Qingzhou.
"Prime Minister, are you okay?" the butler said nervously.
"Let Xifeng come to see me."
His eyes darkened, and Shen Qingzhou spoke coldly.
"Prime Minister, there is a letter from the envoy of Dayu..." The subordinate placed a letter in Shen Qingzhou's hand.
"Back off." Shen Qingzhou's fingers began to tremble as he opened the letter and took a look.
What the envoy of Dayu sent was a letter written by Emperor Dayu himself.
Yin Cheng told Shen Qingzhou that the reason why Bai Li followed Mu Jingyan back then was because Emperor Long wanted to let them go... Everything was Emperor Long's plan to use a woman to get rid of Mu Jingyan and control him, Shen Qingzhou.
"Xifeng, thoroughly investigate when Bai Li and Mu Jingyan rebelled. I want to investigate every detail..." Shen Qingzhou's voice was trembling. What was he afraid of?
After so many years, he never thought about going to find out the truth. He just wanted to hear her explanation from Bai Li.
But Baili never explained, only that she fell in love with Mu Jingyan.
Xifeng lowered his eyes and knelt straight on the ground. "Prime Minister, please, let Xifeng bury Miss Baili safely..."
Shen Qingzhou slowly clenched his fingers and breathed heavily.
"Prime Minister, please give her the last bit of dignity..." Seeing that Shen Qingzhou was silent, Xifeng kowtowed heavily.
After a long time, even an ice bed cannot preserve the dead body.
Shen Qingzhou moved his fingers and finally compromised. "Let's bury him under the pear tree in the backyard..."
He still remembered that Baili liked pear blossoms.
…
Imperial Palace, Qingshan Pavilion.
Chaoyang walked into the inner hall and looked around.
The room was very clean and there was a damaged kite that needed to be repaired.
The ornaments on the table are still there, and it is not difficult to see Xiao Minyan's childlike character.
Her eyes were a little red, Chaoyang knew that Xiao Junze punished her deliberately.
I deliberately let her live here to make her feel guilty and blame herself.
It makes her conscience uneasy...
Originally, this child was supposed to be the future emperor of Fengtian.
But because she falsely conveyed the imperial edict, he was killed.
"Princess, slave... I am the little eunuch of Qingshan Pavilion. Please keep me by your side." Outside the palace, a ragged little eunuch who was often bullied ran in and knelt in front of Chaoyang in fear.
.
Chaoyang was stunned for a moment and looked around. "You..."
"Slave, slave is the personal eunuch of the sixth prince. The prince died suddenly...slave..." The little eunuch's voice was hoarse and he stuttered badly.
"Princess, he seems to have been hiding behind the rockery. It should be that the eunuchs from other palaces bullied him after the Sixth Prince left." Chunlan explained in a low voice and gave the young eunuch a pitiful look.
In this palace, slaves who have lost their master are regarded as unlucky people and will be bullied to death.
Chaoyang obviously knew it, and looked at the trembling little eunuch in front of him with numbness in his heart. "What's your name..."
"Slave...slave, Xiao Guizi."
"Xiao Guizi, please follow me for the time being..." Chaoyang thought, Xiao Junze would not disagree with keeping this little eunuch, right?
What's more, the little eunuch's current miserable situation is all because of her...
Even if she felt guilty, she would protect him as much as possible.
"Thank...Thank you, Princess!" Xiao Guizi quickly crawled to the ground, trembling all over.
"Chunlan, take him to wash up and change into clean clothes."
"yes!"
The little eunuch followed Chunlan tremblingly and left. Before leaving, he glanced at Chaoyang meaningfully, with a trace of resentment flashing in his eyes.
Chaoyang's heart felt a little empty, so he sat in front of the desk and helped Xiao Minyan repair the half-pregnant kite.
The cruelest punishment in the world is called heart-killing...
From the moment Chaoyang falsely conveyed the imperial edict and killed Xiao Minyan, her conscience had to be spent in condemnation and suffering.
Emperor Long played a big game of chess, and his death was not the end, but the beginning of the conspiracy he left behind.
Chaoyang's ears twitched slightly as he concentrated on repairing the kite.
somebody is coming……
Chaoyang expected that many people would come to kill her during this period.
At least those who support the Sixth Prince will not let her go.
Chaoyang smiled bitterly and put down the pen in his hand.
What is coming is unavoidable.
After the death of the late emperor, every day he lived was earned.
