Chapter 426: Threaten with her son
When Heshuo entered the bedroom of Chengqian Palace, the emperor was wearing a bright yellow middle robe, leaning his head against the low-collar one, his eyes closed, his brows frowned, and his expression was gloomy.
After she entered, the eunuchs and palace maids around the emperor retreated one after another, leaving only hers in the room.
"You're here."
Heshuo's heart trembled, he bent down and bowed, then walked forward, lifted up the cloak that had been worn on the emperor's body and put it on again. "It's autumn, and it's getting colder every day, especially at night, the emperor's brother is busy with state affairs, so he has to take care of his own body."
Emperor Wu opened his eyes, his expression relaxed a little, and he patted Heshuo's hand, "I'm still thinking about the emperor's brother."
Heshuo took a step back, "Heshuo's heart always thinks about the emperor's brother, towards the emperor's brother."
Emperor Wu smiled, stood up again, walked out of the bedroom, walked to the gate of the main hall, looked at Han Lin, kneeling under the steps, and then looked up at the night sky.
"It's late at night."
Heshuo followed behind, "Yes."
A cold look flashed in Emperor Wu's eyes, "He has knelt down one day and one night, right?"
Heshuo lowered his head and did not answer this.
"I used to trust him very much." Emperor Wu sighed, "I still want to trust him now."
"Brother..."
"The same is true for you, I want to believe you."
Heshuo hurriedly knelt down, "Emperor Brother, how he Han Lin has nothing to do with me. I said I was only loyal to the emperor."
The emperor showed a look of surprise on his face. He thought Heshuo was here to plead for Han Lin, and would use the past to touch him or threaten him.
"Don't you love him?"
"I choose the latter of the honor of men and eldest princess, and only the emperor can give."
The emperor was stunned and then smiled, "It's worthy of being Yanyan, and his heart is indeed cruel."
Heshuo lowered his head and clenched his hands tightly under his sleeves into a fist.
If possible, she wanted to retort loudly: I am not Yanyan.
When Yanyan died, she died on the night when she was bullied by Emperor Darong Dog.
Now she is Heshuo. She is the cruel one, the cold-blooded one is the cold-blooded one, and the sinister one is the sinister one, and what Heshuo did has nothing to do with Yanyan.
At this time, the leader of the Imperial Guard strode with his wide back knife on his waist, walked to the emperor, saluted first, and then looked at Heshuo, who was standing beside the emperor, without speaking for a moment.
"Tell me." The emperor said.
The leader of the Imperial Guard then reported: "We searched the General Wuwei's mansion three times, but we couldn't find the booklet."
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Han Lin outside, his eyes were extremely cold, "He hid it deep enough."
After saying that, the emperor shook his sleeves and turned back to the bedroom.
Heshuo followed him back to the inner hall. Seeing that the emperor was not dark, he didn't dare to speak for a moment.
After a long time like this, the emperor exclaimed, "By the way, why did you come to the palace?"
Heshuo calmed down and said, "For my rebellious son, he made the court uneasy, and made the emperor brother so worried and asked the emperor brother to kill him!"
The emperor lowered his head and laughed, "What crime is it for?"
Heshuo pursed his lips. Is it necessary for the emperor, especially the one in front of him, to kill someone?
Unless, he doesn't want to kill.
"He killed Qin Zhenzhen."
"There are still doubts in this case."
"Brother..."
"If you talk about things in the court, don't call yourself the emperor."
Heshuo's heart trembled, and then said, "Han Lin..."
"You want to plead for him?"
Heshuo hesitated and shook his head, "No, I just want to make a stand to the emperor, I'm on your side."
The emperor looked up at Heshuo, with a sharp look in his eyes, and kept staring at him for a long time, "Can I believe you?"
Heshuo sighed deeply, "The emperor is right. I love him, but after so many years, he has not given me a title, so I can't help but think, does he love me? Maybe, don't you love me, you have never loved me. Why should I stand on his side unconditionally, and even he is on a path of no return."
The emperor nodded, "It's rare that you are sober."
He silent again and asked, "Han Lin has told you about the matter about Fire Qilin?"
Heshuo pursed his lips: "He doesn't tell me many things, so I don't know."
The emperor may believe it or not, but he did not say anything, but said: "This fire qilin is a powerful gunpowder. Han Lin ordered Xie Shengmao to develop it in the mountains of Yuzhou, but after three years of development, he had no gains. Instead, Yan Mu knew the method of refining this gunpowder, so Han Lin detained him in the prison of the Ministry of Justice with the case of Qin Zhenzhen, tortured him and forced him to tell him the method of refining it. Yan Mu could not bear the heavy punishment and gave him a booklet that recorded the refining of the Fire qilin. I sent the Imperial Guard to search the General's Mansion. You just heard it, and searched it three times, but I didn't find it."
Heshuo said carefully: "Yan Mu is very treacherous. Maybe he doesn't have any booklets, nor does he hand over the refining method to Han Lin. He just wants to provoke the relationship between you monarch and minister."
"He is in my hands. If what he says is fake, it's okay. I have ways to force him to tell the truth. But if Han Lin really got the booklet and didn't hand it over to me and hid it privately, then..." The emperor looked at Heshuo, his eyes suddenly sharp: "That means that my left and right arm has no longer obeyed my orders. The Fire Qilin is a sharp blade in his hand, which may... stab my heart at will."
Heshuo lowered his head, knowing that the emperor was very suspicious, so he didn't dare to mention Han Lin and say something more.
"Didn't you say that your heart is on me? Then I will order you to find that booklet."
"If Han Lin really doesn't..."
"That child Zhuoer has been living with you in the Princess's Mansion since you returned to Jin'an?"
Heshuo's heart trembled suddenly, and the emperor changed his voice and mentioned her son. How could she not understand what he meant?
"yes."
"This kid used to come to the palace to play, and I like him very much."
“…”
"Let me do this. I send someone to the eldest princess's mansion with you, take Zhuo'er into the palace, stay in the palace for some time, wait for you to complete the task I assigned you, get the booklet, and then take the child home."
Heshuo panicked, and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead, "Zhuo'er is timid, and she still wants me to accompany her when she sleeps at night..."
"Then it's just a good opportunity to practice courage. As a boy, you can't do anything big without any courage. Besides, you went to Darong before. This child was placed in the General's Mansion. Han Lin didn't ask him. Han Zhao didn't like him, so he was fine."
Heshuo knelt down and opened his mouth several times to plead, but he also clearly knew that pleading was useless. "Although he is Han Lin's flesh and blood, what Han Lin does has nothing to do with him, and the child is innocent."
"Heshuo, what are you afraid of? I will naturally treat Zhuo'er well."
"I just..."
"I am tired, so you go back first. When you get the booklet, it will naturally be when you are reunited by your mother and son. Yan Mu is also your son, but it's a pity. To be honest, if he is my son, then my country will have successors. But he is the son of Emperor Darong, and no matter what, I will not let him leave Beijin alive."
