In the room, which was so quiet that one could even hear breathing clearly, the silence lasted for a long time in the bloody light. Finally, the silence was broken by an occasional long breath.
"Hurry up and put things away. Arrange them as you promised before, and try not to leave any mistakes."
After all, Shen Junfang was young and had never seen such a bloody scene. Even though he had acted calmly and calmly just now, he could not help but tremble slightly when he stood in front of Yao Junxian's corpse: "Is this okay? He...is already dead?"
"It hurts my heart, and even Daluo Jinxian can't help it." Ou Suiliang hesitated for a moment, then gently patted Shen Junfang on the shoulder, "Are you not used to it? I'll clean it up. You go sit next to it for a while and watch your face.
It’s all white.”
Shen Junfang was a little embarrassed. He looked up and saw Ou Suiliang's gentle smile, which was much more comfortable. He shook his head lightly: "General I and the emperor have come all the way with bloody killings. If you want to protect the distant mountains and rivers, this little thing doesn't matter.
?Since I vowed to follow the emperor, I must adapt as soon as possible."
The expression on the young face was stubborn and serious. This expression was familiar to Ou Suiliang. It was the same when he was full of enthusiasm. He smiled and said nothing more. With the help of Shen Junfang, Ou Suiliang quickly packed away the dining tables and chairs, leaving only
Under Yao Junxian's body and a pool of dazzling blood, it seemed as if nothing else had ever happened here except death, and no one had ever had a drink or a heated argument here.
"Yao Junxian would never have thought that the trap he designed with all his brains would actually become his coffin." Shen Junfang sighed with emotion as he wiped the blood off his body.
"He imagines everyone to be like him, thinking that everyone in the world is like him and can abandon everything, family love or loyalty in pursuit of fame and fortune. He never understands."
"So he will never understand that General I will never betray the emperor's heart, right?" Shen Jun relaxed a lot no longer looking at the corpse. He sat in a clean chair with his chin in his hands, and the bright smile unique to the young man reappeared,
"Don't say that this series of events was arranged by the emperor. Even if the emperor really alienates General I, General I will still devote myself to the emperor without any complaints. It is because of this that the emperor dares to let General I do it. Only
Only people who trust each other can do this.”
Do you trust me? Ou Suiliang is noncommittal.
The most indispensable thing between him and Yi Huaiyu is trust, which has remained the same for many years and has never changed. However, the invisible gap is still widening quietly.
I have long thought that this day would come, and I have known for a long time that there is no way to go back to the past.
"If you've had enough rest, let's continue with the next play. Your Majesty is still waiting in the palace." He took a deep breath to drive away the fatigue. Occasionally, Suiliang used a dagger to cut a wound on his arm. He didn't know if it hurt or not. Anyway, he was calm and used to it.
There was no trace of emotion on his face.
Shen Junfang naturally understood the meaning of the next scene. Seeing Ou Suiliang cut himself without changing his expression, the handsome young man showed a trace of unbearability. He lowered his head and thought for a long time before speaking softly.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty has been very troubled recently because General I have something on my mind but refuses to tell him. Several times when I was discussing things with the Emperor, he would lose his mind and call me by General I's name. After that, the Emperor would smile bitterly, as if
I am very unaccustomed to not having General I around..."
"I understand what Master Shen means." Before Shen Junfang could finish speaking, Ou Suiliang interrupted with a wave of his hand, "I have nothing to hide from your majesty, but there are some limits that I cannot cross as a minister, and I don't want your majesty to be busy with state affairs at the same time.
We have to worry about these small things again." After a pause, Ou Suiliang suddenly turned around to face Shen Junfang, with a hint of sadness in his eyes: "Master Shen is young and promising, and has great intelligence. He has made great contributions in making suggestions for His Majesty's implementation of the new policy, but there is a saying
Hua Suiliang had to remind Master Shen that the king is the king and the ministers are ministers. There is a difference between the king and his ministers. Even if we are like-minded, we must not forget our identity, otherwise... I don't want to see your majesty's disappointed expression again."
Shouldn't people who trust each other talk about everything and be as close as a close friend? Even the emperor has all kinds of emotions and needs a friend with whom he can hold a bottle and drink together and talk about his concerns. How can being so close to him disappoint the emperor?
Shen Junfang was extremely talented in governing the country, but he was just an ignorant young man when it came to people's feelings. He originally planned to stop Ou Suiliang and continue questioning, but when he regained his composure and raised his head, the determined but lonely figure had disappeared outside the door.
In the past two years, Yaoguo has been in constant turmoil, and numerous human anecdotes have been staged one after another. Logically speaking, the people should have been accustomed to it. However, the news of Yao Junxian's assassination still caused an uproar as soon as the news of Yao Junxian's assassination came out.
Shen Junfang had an argument and developed a grudge. After going to court, the two met by chance at General Ou's house and started arguing again. The furious Yao Junxian lost his mind and pulled out a dagger with the intention of killing General Ou and Shen Guoshi, but was stabbed to death by General Ou instead.
No one dares to question whether this statement is credible. Some people are busy mourning the death of rabbits and foxes, while others are busy secretly celebrating. Only General Sima's palace has a somewhat sad atmosphere, but the death of such a powerful minister does not
They came to mourn, and even banned the queen from going to General Sima's mansion. Anyone with a little discernment could see what this meant.
Compared with the new emperor Yi Huaiyu who brought prosperity and stability to the distant country, the traitor Yao Junxian has a stronger sense of existence. Not to mention how many poor people hate him and want to tear his bones and eat his flesh.
The officials who had been persecuted by him submitted memorials that were three feet high, not counting the blood letters written on cloth or papyrus. In addition, Yao Junxian's death also became a watershed in the personnel changes of this dynasty. Those who cling to Yao Junxian
Except for a few powerful officials who had the foresight to resign and return home, most of them were dismissed under Yi Huaiyu's iron fist and investigated. Once the evidence of the crime is confirmed, no one can escape the death penalty.
A series of reactions to the death of Yao Junxian kept Yi Huaiyu busy. Fortunately, with the help of Shen Junfang and Ou Suiliang, many things could be saved. However, the harem, which had always been well organized, began to be chaotic at this time.
After Yao Junxian's death, Sima Tulan no longer managed the affairs of the Sixth Palace.
"After all, Mr. Yao is the queen's uncle. Even if he has made mistakes, how can he forget the kindness of raising her over the years? If you get rid of one of her closest people without saying a word, she will have to bear the pain of bereavement and have to
If you endure all kinds of comments from others, you will definitely become unbearable after a long time."
When Yi Huaiyu went to Lianchenxuan, Su Shiyun, who had been reluctant to talk to him, took the initiative to speak. I don't know whether it was the persuasion that worked or because Yi Huaiyu was looking for her face, and finally agreed to go to Huanqing Palace to see Sima the next day.
Duran.
"That's right. After all, you have to take care of a child after becoming a country. There is nothing wrong with paying more attention to the queen." He stretched out his hand to gently rub Yi Huaiyu's forehead. Su Shiyun's gentle nature was fully revealed, and her cautious tone was as before.
, "Actually, the mistakes made by Mr. Yao should not be blamed on the Queen. You know that she is willing to endure hardships for you, so how can she join forces with others to plot against you? This is really unfair to her.
.”
Yi Huaiyu caught Su Shiyun's fingertips and put them to his lips. His movements were gentle, but his eyes and tone were indifferent and silent.
"She never plotted against me, but everything I lost was all because of her."
