Luo Qingyan frowned and stared at Xia Houjing for a long time. Fang shook his head: "Before I came, I just felt that after so many years of fighting between you and me, there should be an end. Now that I'm here,
But I discovered that you don’t need me to end it at all.”
When Xia Houjing heard this, he became a little excited, with obvious mania in his eyes: "What did you say?"
Luo Qingyan shook his head, pulled Yun Shang and walked out. Xiahou Jing held on to the iron railing tightly and shouted at Luo Qingyan: "Luo Qingyan, come back here, don't you want to end it? I
Let me end it for you, I sent people to assassinate you, your wife is sterile, and your child is mentally retarded, all because of me, come back, Luo Qingyan!"
Luo Qingyan paused, but did not stop.
After leaving the dungeon, Yun Shang raised her eyes and looked at Luo Qingyan, her eyes full of doubts: "Why did your majesty let Xia Houjing go so easily?"
Luo Qingyan turned his head and glanced at the entrance to the dungeon. The secret guards were covering the entrance to the dungeon. Luo Qingyan looked a little thoughtful in his eyes, and after a while he turned his head to look at Yun Shang: "You also saw Xia Houjing just now.
Now, if we kill him easily, it will be a relief for him. Letting him live like this may be the greatest torture."
Yun Shang lowered her head and pondered for a long time. Fang nodded and responded with a smile: "What your Majesty said is absolutely true."
Seeing everyone, Yun Shang raised his head and looked at the sky. It was still early in the sky. Yun Shang blinked and said with a smile: "Since you finally got out of the palace, your majesty, please accompany me for a walk."
Luo Qingyan looked at the secret guards around him, nodded slightly in agreement, and the two of them left the princess mansion together and walked slowly along the street.
Although it was already afternoon, there were still many vendors carrying burdens selling on the street. Yun Shang picked out a few hairpins and saw several people selling various children's toys in front of her, so she took Luo Qingyan's hand and left.
past.
"This bamboo dragonfly..." Before Yun Shang could finish her words, she heard someone behind her ask: "How can I sell this rattle?"
This voice was very familiar to Yun Shang. Yun Shang held the bamboo dragonfly in her hand, but her ears perked up involuntarily.
"Sister, don't buy it. It's unclear whether your husband will live or die now, and there are many places to spend money. It's better not to waste money on these gadgets. And I'm still far away from giving birth. I'm afraid it's too early to buy these.
Come on." Another person's voice came, softly and softly.
"A rattle is less than one tael of silver, so what does it matter?" The woman who asked about the rattle earlier responded in a low voice: "Your belly is already pregnant, it's getting late. Boss, help me wrap it up."
Yun Shang had been standing with the bamboo dragonfly for some time. The businessman carrying the load in front of him became a little impatient and hurriedly urged: "Madam, do you still want this bamboo dragonfly?"
Yun Shang shook her head, put the bamboo dragonfly back, and turned around. The two women who were buying rattles behind Yun Shang also turned around at the same time, and their eyes met, but Yun Shang couldn't help but frown.
She frowned. Why did she look like this now? She looked much haggard, and there were shallow wrinkles on her face.
When the woman saw Yun Shang's face, the rattle she was holding fell to the ground.
"Sister, what's wrong?" The belly of another woman beside her had obviously protruded. She was startled when she saw this. She pulled the woman's hand and bent down to pick up the fallen rattle.
"Let's go." Before his hand could reach the rattle, he was pulled by the woman beside him and hurriedly ran forward.
"Sister, sister, what's wrong?" The pregnant woman didn't know what was going on, so she had to leave immediately.
Luo Qingyan withdrew his eyes from the two women, looked at the rattle on the ground thoughtfully, and said in a dark tone: "Today's one is a coincidence. The one just now is Hua Yutong?"
Yun Shang nodded, and the smile on her face disappeared: "It's her, why did she go back to Jincheng?"
Looking at this situation, even a rattle of money has to be carefully considered, and life is not easy. No wonder, in this world, it is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to provide charcoal in the snow. Xia Houjing has become like this now, as he
The princess cannot escape.
Luo Qingyan's eyes were filled with contemplation: "I'm a little curious about the identity of the woman following Hua Yutong."
"Following Hua Yutong?" Yun Shang was stunned. She had just paid attention to Hua Yutong and had no other ideas. Yun Shang turned her eyes and looked at Luo Qingyan: "What's wrong with that person?"
Luo Qingyan pulled Yun Shang forward and explained in a low voice: "As far as I know, Hua Yutong has no sisters, but the woman called her sister, and she was dressed as a woman. I heard that Xia Houjing was in Liu
When I was in Cang, in order to win over some famous local people, I took in many concubines and concubines."
Yun Shang paused for a moment before she understood what Luo Qingyan was referring to: "Your Majesty suspects that the woman is Xia Houjing's side wife or concubine?"
Luo Qingyan nodded: "I see that her belly is not small anymore, and I am afraid that the month is not small either. Most likely, she is Xia Houjing's child."
Yun Shang was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Luo Qingyan: "Could it be that your Majesty wants to attack that child?"
When Luo Qingyan heard Yun Shang's question, he stopped, turned his head and knocked Yun Shang's forehead and said: "What are you talking nonsense about? Although I have been a little violent, I still won't be so cruel to a person."
Let's attack the child in the belly. I'm not as ruthless as Xia Houjing, but if this child is used well, it will be of great benefit."
Yun Shang didn't understand what Luo Qingyan wanted to do, but after such a fuss, she no longer wanted to go shopping, so she simply returned to the palace with Luo Qingyan.
After returning to the palace, Yun Shang had been thinking about Hua Yutong, and she always felt a little knotty in her heart. Seeing this, Qianliu and Qianzui paid attention to it for most of the day, and finally said: "Your Majesty, there is something wrong with me today.
What's on your mind? You've been uneasy since you returned to the palace earlier, but what happened to Xia Houjing?"
Yun Shang shook his head and murmured to himself: "What can happen to Xia Houjing?" After a pause, he raised his eyes to look at Qianliu, and then said: "You have spent a lot of time in Liucang before, right?
?”
Qianliu nodded and waved his hands: "Although I have stayed in Liucang for a while and met Xia Houjing a few times, I have never betrayed your empress..."
Yun Shang couldn't laugh or cry: "I didn't say you betrayed me. I saw Hua Yutong outside the palace earlier."
As soon as Yun Shang finished speaking, Qian Zui reacted a little loudly: "Why did that ungrateful woman come back? Aren't you afraid that the empress will cut her into pieces?"
"How can I be so cruel?" Yun Shang glanced at her and sighed softly: "It's just that when I saw her appearance, she didn't seem to be living a good life, so I wanted to ask how she was doing in Liucang City.
situation?"
When Qian Liu heard this, he was stunned. He didn't expect Yun Shang to ask about this matter. After thinking about it, he said: "From what I can see, when Hua Yutong was in Liu Cang, the Seventh Prince treated her better than when he was in Jincheng."
Much better, perhaps because of Hua Yutong's natal family. Hua Yutong's father is still somewhat famous in Liucang. People from wealthy families in Siyang, Liucang, will listen to Hua Yutong's father.
Therefore, the Seventh Prince can still be considered as respectful to her as a guest."
"It's just..." Qian Liu paused, and then continued: "It's just that if you say how good it really is, I'm afraid it's not necessarily true. The seventh prince is in Liucang, and his concubines and concubines are coming in one after another. After hearing that Hua
Yutong also made trouble at first, but then she gradually compromised. When I saw her later, she looked more dignified and generous like a princess, but it was a pity that she looked lifeless and disappeared in Jincheng when she was not married.
The aura.”
"She wanted to betray the empress herself in the first place." Qianzui curled her lips and said dullly.
Yun Shang sighed lightly, feeling a little emotional: "She chose this path by herself, and I gave her a chance, but she didn't choose the one I arranged for her, and now she ends up like this.
, but you can’t blame me. Just as His Majesty said, looking at her appearance today, perhaps living like this is the biggest punishment for her. And now that Xia Houjing is trapped, her life is even more difficult.
It’s difficult, so why should I add insult to injury?”
The master and servants were talking when they saw Liu Wen'an hurried in with a letter in his hand. Seeing this, Yun Shang said, "Mr. Liu looks like he is in such a hurry, but what happened?"
Is the important thing going to happen?"
Liu Wen'an sighed and nodded repeatedly: "Empress, where is Your Majesty?"
Yun Shang glanced into the room and responded, "You're in the study, what happened?"
Liu Wen'an sighed repeatedly and took a quick breath before saying: "Did something happen? His Highness the King Xian handed a letter to the palace, and his attendant said that he left the letter and ran away."
Yun Shang was startled and startled: "What? Leaving a letter and running away?"
Liu Wen'an nodded and hurried towards the study. Yun Shang frowned and stood in the hall for a while, then quickly walked out of the main hall and followed Liu Wen'an into the study.
Liu Wen'an had already handed the letter in his hand to Luo Qingyan. Luo Qingyan opened the envelope, took out the letter paper, looked at it carefully, dug through the envelope again, and then took out another
The letter came out and was handed to Yunshang: "This letter is for you."
Yun Shang was startled, then hurriedly took it and unfolded the letter.
Ayun.
I'm sorry to say goodbye to you in this way. I have been carrying some secrets for so long that I can no longer bear them. Now that these burdens are finally lifted, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Mother
My brother and I made many mistakes, and I knew them all, but in the end I couldn't bear to watch them suffer the consequences, so I chose to escape in embarrassment.
I have no intention of seeking power in the country, and prefer to travel among the mountains and rivers. As far as being a king is concerned, speaking lightly is more suitable. I have thought about it for a long time, and I have broken the promise I made before.
There is no need to look for each other, just send my thoughts from afar, I just hope that we are both safe. (To be continued)
