After Tian Kun finished speaking, his whole figure was hollowed out and he fell slumped on the couch.
Lu Yi couldn't bear it at all costs, turned her head to the side, and cried softly.
When Tian Kun heard this desperate and sad cry, his heart felt like a knife.
He struggled to get up and held Lu Yi's hand firmly. This time, Lu Yi did not let go of his hand, looking at him with eyes full of reluctance and pain.
"Lu Yi," Tian Kun's eyes were red and his voice was hoarse: "I originally thought that next year, you would be old enough to leave the palace. I would marry you in an eight-carat sedan chair and let you be my first wife for the rest of my life.
We have fine clothes and fine food. It is not a waste of time for you and me to have a good relationship."
"Unfortunately, I am not so lucky."
"I have confessed my crime, and I cannot escape death. Don't worry about me, and serve me well. When the Ghost Festival comes, burn some paper money for me, and your dream of being a couple will be fulfilled."
"Tian Lang!"
Lu Yi shed tears like rain and cried out sadly: "If you die, I will not live alone. On the day you go to the execution ground, I will end this life with white silk in the palace and go to hell with you. In the next life, we will
Be husband and wife again.”
This sincere farewell gave Tian Kun a hint of joy in his despair.
It probably feels like drinking a bowl of honey before dying!
Tian Kun was so excited that he hugged Lu Yi.
Lu Yi took two steps back and cried sadly: "The time has come, I have to leave now. Tian Lang, we will see you in the next life."
After saying that, he left with one step and three turns.
Tian Kun fell down and sat on the edge of the bed, looking like he was crying and smiling. Finally, he burst into tears.
…
This crying sound came out of the dark passage and reached the ears of "Lu Yi" who "went away crying bitterly".
"Green Ripple" put on her weft hat again, with no tears on her face and the corners of her mouth raised.
She quickly walked out of the dungeon and all the way out the door.
There, a carriage is waiting.
There was a corner lantern hanging in the carriage, and Eunuch Yang, who was dressed as a wealthy businessman, looked over calmly: "Miss Feng San, did things go well tonight? Did Tian Kun see any flaws?"
Feng Shaojun took off his hat and put it on "Lu Yi's" face. His voice was the same as "Lu Yi's": "Fortunately, I have not insulted my fate. I have persuaded Tian Kun to plead guilty."
Eunuch Yang's brows relaxed, and his eyes showed joy: "Tian Kun really didn't realize that you were an imposter?"
Feng Shaojun raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled: "No. My old lover sent him off in person for the last time. Tian Kun was so moved that he wanted to be husband and wife with Lu Yi in the next life!"
The look, appearance, and tone of voice were exactly the same as Lu Yi's.
Not to mention Tian Kun, even if Lu Yi was here, she would think that she was looking in the mirror.
Eunuch Yang was amazed and couldn't help but praise: "Back then, Hu Tian's disguise skills were amazing. However, if you look closely, you can still see some clues. You are like a natural. I know you are not Lu Yi.
.When you spoke just now, you couldn’t see any flaws in it.”
The light in the prison is dim, and Tian Kun's mind is agitated. How can he tell the truth from the lie?
Feng Shaojun said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Yan set up a clever plan, and Eunuch Yang secretly took action to capture Lu Yi and hide her in the house. I just took the last step. Most of the credit for this must go to His Highness and Eunuch Yang."
Tonight's trip to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice seemed simple, but in fact it was tense and dangerous.
Once the flaw is discovered, Tian Kun will not plead guilty at all. When Tian Kun is released from prison, the news about someone pretending to be "Lv Yi" will definitely reach the ears of King Zhao and Tian Shufei, and then it will be a disaster.
Everything is going well now, which is the best.
Eunuch Yang was in a good mood and said with a smile: "You don't have to be humble. When Tian Kun pleads guilty and the case is settled, our family will remember you for your great contribution."
After a pause, he whispered again: "This case has not really been solved yet."
"You should enter the palace now and go to Concubine Shu..."
The voice becomes lower and lower.
Feng Shaojun nodded.
After Eunuch Yang finished speaking, he added: "Our family has properly 'disposed' Lu Yi. After you complete the task, you will leave the palace quickly. If something goes wrong in the palace, you will be dead."
Feng Shaojun's expression did not change: "Don't worry, Eunuch Feng, I will definitely be cautious."
He is truly a natural talent for internal response.
Eunuch Yang once again secretly praised in his heart.
"The outside of Yuehua Gate is heavily guarded. After it is locked, the palace gate will usually not be opened again." Eunuch Yang whispered: "You have Luyi's badge, and the guards guarding the gate will not stop you."
"After you enter the palace, go all the way to Cuiwei Palace. Remember to avoid the masters in the palace."
"You are the maid in charge of Cuiwei Palace. When you enter Cuiwei Palace, someone from the palace will surely greet you. Don't rush to see Concubine Tian Shu. Spend the night first."
"If nothing unexpected happens, His Royal Highness King Yan will enter the palace tomorrow morning and report the case to the Emperor. Before that, scare Concubine Tian Shu and ask her to take the initiative to reveal Tian Kun's evil deeds to the Emperor."
…
The carriage moved forward slowly in the darkness and stopped after more than half an hour.
It was dark at this time and the night sky was full of stars.
Feng Shaojun got off the carriage, turned a corner, and walked through the long alley. His eyes suddenly brightened, and he saw the tall palace walls. The thick red palace door had been locked.
There are imperial guards guarding both inside and outside the palace gate.
This is Yuehua Gate.
There are four gates in the imperial palace, and Yuehua Gate is the only place to go in and out of the harem.
As soon as Feng Shaojun's figure appeared, the imperial guards immediately became alert.
Clang Clang Clang!
More than ten imperial forest guards drew their swords from their waists and shouted sternly: "Who is coming?"
Feng Shaojun stepped forward and took out his waist badge from the secret pocket in his sleeve: "I am Lu Yi, the palace maid of Cuiwei Palace. I am out of the palace on errands as ordered by Concubine Shu. I have to go back to Cuiwei Palace now. Please make it convenient for all of you."
In Nuo's large palace, there are nearly a thousand internal servants and about two thousand palace residents. No matter how good the memories of the guards are, they cannot remember so many people. Access to the palace depends on the palace badge.
Losing your belt is a capital offense.
Because of this, the people in the inner palace regard waist cards as more important than their eyes.
These waist badges are all specially made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They are about two inches long, one inch wide and half an inch thick. They are black in color and gold in color. The texture is neither wood nor gold, and it shines with a dark luster.
The waist card in Feng Shaojun's hand belongs to Lu Yi and is genuine.
The guards carefully checked the waist badge, and after confirming that it was correct, they opened the Yuehua Gate... Of course it was impossible. How could a palace man be qualified to open the palace gate.
About ten meters to the left of Yuehua Gate, there are two side entrances. On weekdays, palace servants or imperial guards would use the side entrances to enter and leave the palace.
After Feng Shaojun entered the side door, his waist badge was checked again.
According to the rules of the palace, you have to carefully check whether you have any sharp weapons on your body.
Feng Shaojun stuffed the prepared purse into the palace attendant who was checking his waist badge. The palace attendant quickly weighed the purse and was very satisfied. After looking at it in a pretentious manner, he let Feng Shaojun in.
