At this time, everyone in Kyoto knew about it, and even storytellers were talking about it.
In the small teahouse, the storyteller knocked on the case and said seriously: "Not long after the new emperor ascended the throne, unexpectedly such a big thing happened. Prince Chun killed Concubine Liang. I heard that Concubine Liang died with her eyes open.
, the old lady stuck her tongue out. Originally, others just thought that Concubine Liang had committed suicide, but the autopsy examiner found something in Concubine Liang’s throat! Guess what it was!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people sitting and listening to the book were already talking about it.
The storyteller chuckled twice, looking mysterious: "Unexpectedly? This is a key object!"
"This must be evidence against Prince Chun!" someone suddenly said.
The storyteller banged the table with his board and made a sound: "Brother, I would like to say that what the autopsy took out from Concubine Liang's mouth was Prince Chun's jade ring! I heard that this jade ring is
The late emperor gave it to Prince Chun when he was crowned king, so everyone in the palace recognized it at a glance. There was also a rumor in the palace that the Fourth Emperor requested an order to kill Prince Chun in order to avenge his mother.
.”
"This matter is in doubt. Why did Prince Chun kill Concubine Liang..." Someone asked.
"Oh, this must be a feud between brothers, so Prince Chun killed the fourth emperor's mother and concubine to relieve his anger!"
"No, no, I have a relative who works in the palace. I heard that Prince Chun had hated Concubine Liang for a long time, so he killed her."
For a time, various rumors spread.
At this time, there was a woman standing outside the main entrance of the imperial city. It was snowing in Kyoto now. She raised her head and a beautiful face was revealed.
She has finally arrived. I heard that Wen Yimo is still in prison. I hope she can make it in time.
Ci'an Palace.
Su Wan'er leaned on the imperial concubine chair and just lightly tied her hair into a bun, but her black hair was mixed with a few silver strands.
She closed her eyes and didn't know if she was asleep or not.
Smoke rose from the incense burner with entangled peonies and green leaves, blurring Su Wan'er's face.
There was a faint fragrance filling the palace, but Su Waner's brows were tightly knitted together.
She seemed to hear the baby's voice, and the loud cry kept echoing in her ears.
Su Waner murmured: "Child... child..."
Slowly, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on Amelia Su's forehead.
The baby's voice did not stop. Su Waner felt as if there was a knife stabbing into her heart. She stretched out her hand to hug the baby, but someone beat him to it. She could only watch helplessly.
Watching the child getting further and further away from me.
"Child!" Su Waner suddenly screamed and opened her eyes suddenly.
What came into view was still the magnificent palace. Not far from her, there was a charcoal stove.
"Empress Dowager, what's wrong with you?" A palace maid hurried over and asked worriedly, "Did you have a nightmare? You should ask the imperial doctor to prescribe a tea for the Queen Mother to calm the panic. Recently, the Queen Mother has been haunted by nightmares."
Su Wan'er's heartbeat was beating heavily. She slowly sat up and waved her hand: "No need, the Ai family is just worried about something."
She sighed. Indeed, she was always unable to sleep peacefully now, and she was always thinking about someone.
"Aunt!" A cry came from outside the palace. Su Waner didn't notice it at first, thinking that she was hallucinating because she missed her too much.
"Aunt! Aunt!" The voice came to Su Waner's ears again. Su Waner immediately stood up with a look of surprise on her face: "It's Dai'er's voice!"
Sure enough, a figure rushed in, her clothes fluttering, she was like a fairy floating in, her steps were light.
"Dai'er!" Su Waner recognized Su Dai at a glance. She couldn't help it any longer and hurriedly stepped forward and took Su Dai's hands, "It's really Dai'er!"
Su Wan'er reached out and touched Su Dai's cheek. It was indeed true. Her tears welled up in her eyes in a flash.
Su Dai was startled, and the warm tears fell on the back of Su Dai's hand, like a brand, making her feel hot.
"Aunt..." Su Dai could only utter these two words. The fine lines at the corners of Su Waner's eyes also became worse. With just one glance, Su Waner's silver threads were also visible.
Su Waner seemed to have aged ten years overnight!
Somehow, Su Dai's heart ached.
"Dai'er, my aunt misses you so much..." Su Waner said in a trembling voice, "You have lost your temper. Did Wei Tangze treat you badly?"
When Wei Tangze was mentioned again, Su Dai felt severe pain in her chest, and even her own body was shaking.
"It turns out that my aunt also knows that it was Wei Tangze who kidnapped me. Did my aunt also agree to the agreement?" Su Dai couldn't believe that Su Waner treated her so well and would actually take advantage of her.
"Dai'er, listen to aunt." Su Waner suddenly became anxious, "Actually, aunt only found out later, and aunt didn't know that the emperor would do this. If aunt knew, she would definitely stop it. Dai'er, you are
My aunt's darling, it's good that you are back now, my aunt will not let anyone hurt you in the slightest."
Su Dai felt anxious, but she had no time to dwell on these things now. She asked directly: "Aunt, did Wen Yimo really kill Concubine Liang?"
Su Waner's hands tightened and her expression became serious: "Yes, this matter has alarmed the government and the public, and now Prince Chun has been imprisoned."
"How will aunt deal with him?" Su Dai asked anxiously.
Su Waner raised her head slightly, without any emotion in her words, and said: "He killed the concubine, so naturally he cannot be forgiven easily. The emperor has already issued an order, and Prince Chun will be executed tomorrow to commemorate Concubine Liang's spirit in heaven.
Also give an explanation to the Fourth Emperor."
"Execution..." That means, will Wen Yimo really die?
These words were like a sharp knife stabbing into her body without any mercy, until the blood flowed out and her flesh and blood were blurred.
"Is it really him?" Su Dai stared at Su Waner blankly, "Is it really him who killed Concubine Liang?"
Su Wan'er's expression changed. She sensed something sensitively and turned around and said, "Step back first."
The eunuchs and concubines in the palace quickly retreated, leaving them alone in the huge palace.
Su Wan'er slowly turned around and said softly: "Dai'er, he has ruined your life. Auntie will not let him go easily."
Her life? She has lost her own life a long time ago. Living in this body, she has to suffer different tortures, but she has survived them all, but now...she is reluctant to let that person die.
"In other words, Concubine Liang was not killed by him, right?" Su Dai only thought of this possibility in her mind.
