She seemed to be pleading: "Your Majesty, I beg you, for the sake of King Yan, please don't hurt the princess. After all, the late emperor... the late emperor liked King Yan so much."
When she said this, she seemed to be very restrained, trying her best not to let her emotions flow out.
The emperor's expression also changed, and he said: "I know that you liked King Yan very much and took good care of him, not only for the sake of the late emperor, but also because..."
He suddenly paused and did not continue speaking. Instead, he looked at Concubine Li Hui, staring into her eyes, which were sharp and bright.
Li Huifei's eyelids jumped as she was stared at by him. She didn't even realize that her voice was trembling slightly, "Why?"
The emperor seemed to have changed. He was no longer that kind-hearted, but extremely shrewd. His voice was low, "You know why, Li Luhen! Don't think that I will never know. If you want others to not know, unless
Don’t do anything for yourself…”
There was a muffled thunder from somewhere outside. It was incredible that there would be muffled thunder late at night when midsummer was over and late autumn was approaching.
Outside the window, the autumn rain began to patter down at some unknown time.
The autumn rain is like drops falling on the heart, making people extremely melancholy.
Countless people in the spring boudoir dream are gazing at each other in the bleak autumn rain, but the prison of Dali Temple is still warm and sweet.
The two woke up, and Shen Mingzhu was still leaning on his shoulder, "Listen, it's raining."
Xiao Xian said: "It will be even colder tomorrow."
A layer of autumn rain and a layer of coolness, that's how it is. This is the law of nature, and no one can change it.
But the coolness in people's hearts is due to a lot of suspicion and rejection.
He felt a little cold, so he hugged her tightly.
Shen Mingzhu heard that all the guards around him had gone to sleep, and the other prisoners were also fast asleep. In the whole prison, there were only the sounds of crickets and the snoring of those people.
She asked softly: "Your Majesty, do you remember General Jie Jinwu?"
Xiao Xian was startled for a moment and asked: "Jie Jinwu?"
Shen Mingzhu nodded. She had written to ask Xiao Xian about this matter before. She wanted to ask him how much he knew about the Xie family and see if she could unify the information and deduce some new things.
Maybe this can solve her doubts.
Knowing the secret that Prince Yan used to threaten Concubine Xie may solve many problems, so that we can take precautions.
Xiao Xian thought for a moment and said, "I'm not very familiar with the Xie family. General Xie has disappeared since I was sensible, and the late emperor didn't seem to like their family very much. After General Xie's death, they stopped appearing.
I'm in the court, and I don't have the chance to enter the palace. So I rarely see him."
It is said that it is rare, but in fact it can be said that it has never been seen before. I only met the Xie family children by chance.
Moreover, some of the Xie family's children later started to engage in business or study, or even went south to develop, and did not move around in the capital at all, so there were really few opportunities for him to get to know them.
Shen Mingzhu felt that what he said was true, because if he had known something for a long time, there was no way he would not have mentioned it to her.
After all, Jie Jinwu is also a very powerful general.
The two of them were talking in a low voice. Xiao Xian suddenly remembered something and whispered in her ear: "I just remembered that Li Huifei came from the Xie family."
