The days when I was imprisoned in the harem by the enemy monarch
Chapter 16 Jointly framed, please Your Majesty temporarily detain the Queen, to find out the truth.
In the Kingdom of Shang, the entire imperial city seemed to be under the sun, and the streets and alleys were covered with fiery red, and red silk decorations were hung all over the tall buildings and golden pagodas, down to the huts and huts.Every household is festive and lively, and the alleys are empty.
According to the old practice of the Shang Dynasty, the emperor and empress would meet the people on this day, and personally sprinkle gold, silver, pearls, flowers and fruits on the streets. Those who snatch them will have a blessed and healthy life, and are called "blessings from the heavenly family" by the people. ".
But it is said that the new empress is not in good health and cannot bear today's trip around the city, and today the empress does not see the emperor personally coming to bless her.Although it is a bit regretful not to see the emperor and empress, this program has not been cancelled, and will be replaced by An Lehou, who is deeply loved by the people, to come to reward blessings.
"Father, who is An Lehou?" On the side of the road, a little girl with a double bun and a red ribbon raised her head and asked the middle-aged man beside her.
"An Lehou, he is the son of Princess Wuyang, the cousin of our current emperor." The middle-aged man lowered his head and explained to his daughter beside him, "Today will bless us on behalf of the heavenly family."
"Wow! That's amazing!" The little girl jumped up happily, "Then I will definitely grab a lot of fruit from the emperor's cousin today!"
Before the little girl could finish her words, the ending was drowned in the sighs of the crowd.Cheers erupted from both sides of the street.
The middle-aged man quickly picked up the little girl and let her ride on his shoulders.
The little girl looked at the middle of the road with big eyes without blinking, and saw the guards in black clothes on the outermost periphery, and hundreds of palace people in fiery red palace costumes in the middle surrounded a gorgeous car with veils flying , surrounded by countless precious stones, dazzling in the sun, so dazzling that it is hard to see clearly.
Surrounded by red gauze and precious stones, one can vaguely see a figure wearing a purple dress embroidered with silver and a silver crown inlaid with precious stones on his head. Go up three points.
"Anlehou! Anlehou!..." On both sides of the road, the young woman's hoarse shouts could be heard from time to time, "Anlehou!"
"It's so handsome, woo woo woo..." By the road, a woman burst into tears, "I've heard that An Lehou is so handsome and unparalleled, but I didn't expect him to be even more handsome than I thought..."
A woman wearing a red silk flower in a bun and a sheer gauze cried: "Bai Lang, you are a heartless person, and you haven't come to Baihualou for so long. It's so hard to see each other, and you just ignore me while sitting in the car, woo Woooo..."
Bai Yixiao sat in the car, smiled and waved to the people around him, took the brocade bag from the attendant, grabbed a handful and sprinkled it on both sides of the street.
The small flower decorations made of gold and silver and some auspicious grains and small fruits drew a perfect arc in the air and were looted before they hit the ground.
Bai Yixiao turned her head and said with a smile to her entourage: "Last time I saw so many people chasing the car, or is it that the girls in the Jinling of the Liang Kingdom are going to marry Prince Lin Hongjian. Who would have thought that this Marquis would be so popular with girls?"
The corner of the entourage's mouth twitched: "The prince of Liang Guo is really good and has nothing to say. But here, there are many brothel women you have patronized, chasing you to be responsible. Did you hear that?"
"Shut up, shut up." Bai Yixiao said dissatisfiedly while sprinkling fruit on the road, "Bai has been with me for so many years, how can he grow others' ambition and destroy my prestige? Can Lin Hongjian be as good-looking as me?"
The entourage asked frankly: "Where do you have the courage to compare with him?"
"For a man, it doesn't matter whether he is good-looking or not." Bai Yixiao changed his words shamelessly, "The important thing is that I can be friends with the most beautiful person in the world, but Lin Hongjian will never be able to."
The entourage was ashamed: "...This, you really won."
Bai Yixiao finally compared Lin Jian, and happily grabbed a handful of fruits and threw them on the side of the road.
Beside the road, the onlookers were still jostling for gold, silver and fruits.
There was a child who didn't grab the fruit and was crying on the side of the road. The adult comforted him: "There are still many opportunities. The car will not go back to the palace until the bell of the Royal Great Mercy Temple rings."
As soon as the adults finished speaking, a small fruit hit the child's head.
The child's eyes widened, and suddenly he grinned.
……
"when--"
"when--"
"when--"
"..."
The bell of the Royal Daci'en Temple rang nine times, and the solemn and distant bell rang throughout the country.
In front of the Jingming Hall of the Imperial Palace, in the middle of the white jade steps leading to the main hall, there is a red carpet more than a hundred feet long, and the gold thread is woven into thousands of auspicious pattern patterns that do not repeat.
Hundreds of officials line up on both sides of the red carpet, and the white jade steps in front of the hall are just like the ranks of high and low in the court.Songs, dances and musicians stand behind the officials.
On both sides of the white jade steps, there are hundreds of court ladies holding guards of honor, and there are countless jewels and treasures.
The waiter said loudly: "Play "The Chapter of Qingping"."
With the sound of ceremony and music, all the officials lined up on both sides respectfully, not daring to look sideways.
Among the solemn and elegant rites and music, there is only the sound of the ring pendant ding-dong and the pearls and jades, gradually approaching.
Under the bright sun, Luan Yunye took Lin Jian's hand and walked towards the main hall step by step along the red carpet surrounded by tens of thousands of people.
The minister's eyes did not dare to squint, only when the emperor and empress walked in front of him could he seize the opportunity to take a closer look.
The emperor is dressed in a crown dress, the luxurious golden light flows on the black robe, and the pearls and jade on the crown reflect the sunlight and are brighter than the stars.
The queen next to the emperor wore neat dresses and dignified demeanor, but she was still stunningly beautiful.The shadows on the temples and the clothes are light, with a thousand shapes [1].Like a sharp sword buried in flowers, it can be seen in the colorful colors, but the vigor of the clank is infiltrated with the fragrance of flowers.
Suddenly, Lin Jian felt a looseness in his waist.
The previous experience of the breast-length skirt slipping off gave Lin Jian a premonition that this time the skirt tied around the waist was getting looser and looser as she walked, and was about to slip off.
Lin Jian was led by Luan Yunye with one hand, and quietly used the other hand to lift the skirt quietly.
Although it was covered by a coat so that nothing could be revealed, the skirt on the inside slipped so badly that Lin Jian couldn't look aside. When going up the steps, the toe of his shoe stepped on the corner of the skirt, tripped and fell forward.
Luan Yunye, who was beside him, noticed something strange, and squeezed Lin Jian's hand and pulled him towards him.
Lin Jian was caught off guard and fell into Luan Yunye's arms.
Luan Yunye glanced down at Lin Jian's skirt, leaned over and picked him up, and walked up the white jade steps without changing his expression.
The ministers stared at the empress who was loving and loving before them, and they couldn't take their eyes off it. They thought to themselves that if they wanted to have a long-term official career under the moody emperor, it seemed necessary to please the empress more in the future.
Waiting for the emperor to walk up the jade steps, he can be worshiped by all the officials, and the waiter said loudly: "All the officials kowtow."
All the officials faced the Jingming Hall, knelt three times and kowtowed nine times, their voices shook the palace.
"After the ceremony, please stop." The waiter said, "Please grant the queen's seal to your majesty."
Four maids in auspicious clothes held trays covered with red silk, and presented the Queen's seal to Luan Yunye.
Luan Yunye raised his hand, and was about to lift the seal from the plate, when he heard a loud shout from the steps below: "Your Majesty cannot canonize Lin Yue'er!"
The sound of ritual and music stopped abruptly.
All the officials turned their heads in surprise when they heard the sound, only to see a court lady who was supposed to be standing aside ran out from the crowd, stood on the red carpet in the center, and said loudly to Luan Yunye: "I have something to say! "
Luan Yunye frowned slightly, and said coldly, "Who are you?"
"Your Majesty, the concubine is Ruofei!" the palace maid shouted, "Don't your majesty know the concubine?"
"What do you intend to do to disturb Jiali?" Luan Yunye said coldly, "Come here, delay."
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Ruo anxiously pointed at Lin Jian and shouted as she struggled to get rid of the guards who tried to drag her away, "This Lin Yue'er's identity is unknown and her origin is unknown! The list of concubines in the Sangong Sixth Courtyard After checking, there is no such person! She is a palace maid in disguise! She also sneaked into the court with weapons! She must be..."
Concubine Ruo didn't finish her sentence, her eyes widened suddenly, two streams of scarlet blood flowed from her eyes.
But in a moment, the seven orifices bleed, and he fell to the ground and died.
Seeing the man bleeding from seven orifices on the ground, the officials were shocked and began to discuss quietly.
A guard stepped forward to check the situation, and reported to Luan Yunye on one knee, "His Majesty, Concubine Ruo has been poisoned and died."
Lin Jian looked down at the corpse on the ground and frowned slightly.
An old minister came out and said: "Your Majesty, this concubine Ruo just mentioned that the name of the queen could not be found in the roster of the Sangong and Six Courts. It must have been noticed when she went to the harem to check the roster."
"The man was afraid that Concubine Ruo would tell the truth, so he had planned to kill her long ago. It's just that she didn't expect that Concubine Ruo would have the opportunity to tell His Majesty the truth before she died - from this point of view, there must be enemy spies in this palace! "
All the ministers looked at each other knowingly, no one knew who this "enemy country spy" was referring to.
Lin Jian thought to himself, if he or his subordinates wanted to kill people and silence them, they would have taken her life without anyone noticing it, so why would they wait for her to "reveal" in this post-event ceremony.What's more, that person stepped forward to "reveal", and died of anger after only saying a few words, which just happened to make everyone point the finger at him, and the calculation should not be too obvious.
Such blatant planting and framing is because he has no power in the court, and most of the officials are dissatisfied with his humble status as a court lady.No matter how obvious it is to frame and frame at this time, the ministers will choose to be wise and protect themselves, and no one will stand up to speak for someone who has nothing to do with them.
Lin Jian's figure swayed slightly, and he vaguely remembered that night more than ten years ago, when the mother and concubine wept silently under the lamp alone, and fell ill within a few days.
The cause is like today, on the day when the first emperor was about to seal the empress, a court lady suddenly went mad and yelled out slander, bleeding to death from her seven orifices.Countless ministers attacked the mother and concubine, saying that the lowly princess of a foreign race was not worthy of being a queen.
Rumors are the cruelest murder weapon in the world.Once it starts, it is like a river bursting its bank. Although there is no blood, it can eat people without spitting out bones.Those who stand under this broken embankment, even if they try their best to spend their whole life, can only die in agony by the bone-chilling water erosion inch by inch, and eventually even their corpses are annihilated by the turbulent and turbulent waves.
No matter how much people trust each other, the three of them will eventually become tigers, become accomplices of rumors, and turn into the last huge wave that destroys those who stand in the storm.
They all say reincarnation.This scene is so similar.
Feeling the person beside him swaying slightly, Luan Yunye held Lin Jian's hand and whispered in Lin Jian's ear, "But are you tired? Can I take you back to the bedroom to rest?"
Lin Jian quietly pulled his hand out of Luan Yunye's palm, closed his eyes and said nothing, only the trembling long eyelashes betrayed the turmoil in his heart at the moment.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Ruo said before her death that the identity of the Empress was unknown. At that time, the dagger she carried in the hall was even more suspicious. Wouldn't it be extremely dangerous to leave such a person beside the pillow?" A minister came out and said.
Another minister came out and said: "The safety of the king is related to the stability of the country and the country. Please take more precautions, and don't trust others. Why don't you temporarily imprison the queen and ask the Secretary to investigate the matter carefully, and then do it after the truth is found out." It’s not too late to deal with it.”
"Report to Your Majesty." Another minister came out, "It is an indisputable fact that Concubine Ruo was murdered. Human life is at stake. Concubine Ruo testified against the Queen before she was alive, and now the only one who has the motive to kill Concubine Ruo is the Queen." .”
All the ministers knelt down and said in unison: "Your Majesty, please temporarily detain the queen and find out the truth."
Lin Jian regained consciousness from a trance and opened his eyes.
All the officials bowed before them, which was very similar to the scene where Liang Guo's officials killed people with empty words.
His mother was crying alone, Lin Jian's hands trembled uncontrollably, he calmed down, and secretly clenched the hands under his long sleeves.
Although it is true that their identities are false, if they are allowed to slander them as "enemy spies" and sit in the palace of the Shang Dynasty and install forces to wantonly kill concubines, they will be criticized by others, and it will definitely affect the peace talks between the two countries.
But Lin Jian couldn't stand up and say that this was framed.Even if there was one person present who stood up and questioned that this was a frame-up, he would find that the so-called killing and murder of himself as a spy was full of doubts.However, if you stand up and explain yourself, not only will no one believe it, but you will fall into the hands of those who are planning to frame you - the sophistry will become darker and darker.
What's more, when an ordinary woman encounters the situation in front of her, even if she doesn't faint from fright, she will be more or less confused. How can she calmly find out the loopholes in the incident to explain herself.The more reasonable and well-founded he explained at this time, the more suspicious Luan Yunye was.
Based on Lin Jian's understanding of Luan Yunye in the past few days, he was deeply thoughtful, and it was impossible for him not to see the problem with this kind of framing trick, and he probably didn't need to explain himself.The enemy country will not send a man without a chest to be a spy. The more unfavorable his reaction is at this time, the more stupid and naive he looks, the easier it is for him to believe that he is not a spy.
Luan Yunye didn't check his details before, as Bai Yixiao said, it was out of trust in his recommendation to enter the palace, so once he aroused Luan Yunye's suspicion, he would definitely implicate Bai Yixiao.
Right now, other things can be ignored for the time being, but Luan Yunye's trust must be won first, and other things can be slowly found a way to get back.
As a spy, at this time, fighting with reason or "declaring one's will with death" will hit the opponent's arms and make the opponent more interesting to do.
It's better to retreat and pretend to be self-defeating, firstly, to follow their wishes so that they can't continue to pursue, and secondly, to give Luan Yunye the "husband and wife love" that Luan Yunye wanted.
Lin Jian took a step back, knelt down in front of Luan Yunye, and his voice was soft and pleasant to hear, with a somewhat hoarse voice: "Although this concubine is suspected by thousands of people, it is not worth it, but since this concubine is married to His Majesty, I am willing to marry you with His Majesty." Life and death depend on each other, and the most precious thing in my heart is His Majesty's trust. If there is a rift between us and His Majesty at this time, my concubine will be very afraid."
"The concubine heard that there must be evidence for everything, no matter whether there are spies in the palace or not, but it is a fact that someone died, and the concubine is more concerned about the safety of his majesty. Since the concubine is suspected, I dare not justify myself with empty words and is willing to accept Review, rest assured His Majesty and all the adults."
Evidence is needed in everything, and the presence of spies in the palace is just speculation, and there is no factual evidence.Murder is also a false accusation, and the attitude of being willing to accept scrutiny is no longer insincere.
Besides, for a normal spy, at this time, the most important thing to fear is censorship, if not to argue hard, at least to die.It's better to have a "death to show one's will" to make His Majesty sympathize and feel guilty, and maybe give up the pursuit of the forces she has planted in the country.There is no spy who does not try to avoid censorship, which spy would take the initiative to ask His Majesty to censor himself?
Moreover, the queen has no influence in the court, so she naively thought that the review would definitely clear him up. It seemed that she was completely ignorant of court struggles. How could there be a plan for a person sent by the enemy to be a spy?
Some ministers began to secretly exchange glances, and seemed to have noticed the problem.
Lin Jian suddenly remembered the sour poem that Luan Yunye read to him that night, looked up at Luan Yunye and said, "I wholeheartedly believe that Your Majesty can find out the truth, and I only hope that your heart is like mine'."
Luan Yunye's eyes were only on the person kneeling in front of him from beginning to end.Hearing his last words, he narrowed his eyes slightly.
Grand Master Xu winked, and immediately a minister came out to report: "Your Majesty, since the Empress is willing to accept the review, that would be great. I beseech Your Majesty to investigate strictly!"
"Your Majesty." Prime Minister Lu stood up and knelt down on the steps and said, "Although the old minister opposed His Majesty's appointment before, after looking at it today, the old minister thinks that the empress's actions and words are open and aboveboard, and she is affectionate and righteous to her majesty. Because of one-sided words, I wronged the empress."
"Just now, the empress also said that everything should be based on evidence, and I think so. Although Concubine Ruo said that she could not be found in the roster in the palace, she is empty-handed. Why not adjust the roster to have a look? In addition, this Concubine Ruo died strangely. I have been testifying against the empress before, but there is no evidence to prove that the empress did it, and this matter still needs to be investigated."
"As for the spies, it can only be said to be speculation, and may not really exist. Don't abolish the gift of the empress because of some 'unfounded' remarks. Isn't this a family of generosity?"
Luan Yunye spread out his palms in front of Lin Jian: "What the Prime Minister said makes sense."
Lin Jian glanced at Luan Yunye's hand in front of him, and in front of so many people, he could only pass it over.
Luan Yunye held Lin Jian's hand and helped him up from the ground.
Lin Jian turned his head and glanced at Prime Minister Lu who was standing at the bottom of the stairs. He remembered meeting him in the court hall that day, and thought that Luan Yunye, a prime minister with a calm mind and the ability to speak up for justice, was a rare minister.
"Your Majesty!" Seeing that the momentum is not good, Grand Master Xu got up and said, "Although the spies are just speculations, they may not be groundless. Since the prime minister said that what Concubine Ruo said may not be true, then please ask the palace supervisor to submit the list of all palace personnel for investigation. Check if there is the name of the empress? If there is, then the lie will be self-defeating, and someone must be framing the empress."
"If not, then the old minister would like to have the courage to ask the empress to explain, where is the empress's home? How to enter the palace, how to enter the court hall, and why do you carry weapons on the court hall?"
"Grand Master asked a good question." Suddenly, a loud voice sounded from behind all the ministers, "I can testify for Grand Master that there must be no empress's name in the roster of palace personnel in the harem! And the empress must not dare to say who she is Family background, what origin!"
"The queen is a spy, please Your Majesty order the queen to be executed on the spot!"
Hearing the sound, all the ministers turned their heads and looked behind them in surprise.
I saw An Lehou wearing a silver crown inlaid with amethysts on his head, and wearing a purple embroidered silver dress, looking dazzling under the sun, walking calmly through the red carpet on the ground, and stopped beside Grand Master Xu.
"See Your Majesty, see the Empress. This minister has completed his mission and came back." Bai Yixiao saluted the Empress, looked back at Grand Master Xu and said with a smile, "Grand Master Xu, did this Marquis express what Grand Master wanted?"
An Lehou has always been idle and doesn't care about government affairs, but now he stands up to speak for him, could it be that he has the intention of wooing him?But listening to this tone, it seemed that he was here to trouble himself.Grand Master Xu asked with a fake smile, "Could it be that Lord Hou has long been suspicious of the queen, secretly investigated the queen, and found out that the queen's origin is unknown and she is suspected of being a spy?"
"Secret investigation, that's not true. Foreign ministers have no right to investigate the harem roster, and this Marquis is not some powerful and powerful man with all-hands and eyes, and he doesn't have a daughter who is convenient in the palace. How can I find this?" Bai Yixiao Looking at Grand Master Xu, he said with a smile, "Besides, why should Benhou bother to investigate his own sister?"
Grand Master Xu was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "What is the meaning of this, Master Hou?"
"It's true that the queen's name can't be found in the palace roster. That's because the Marquis hasn't had time to get him in. He was sent into the palace through the back door a few days ago." Ashamed.
This is indeed An Lehou's usual style.
A minister who has always claimed to be upright and upright has shown contempt.
"At first, I planned to slowly find opportunities for her to be included in the compilation. Who would have thought that Ben Hou's younger sister is so beautiful, beautiful, and intelligent, so she is lucky enough to be favored by His Majesty." Bai Yixiao raised her eyebrows proudly, "Your Majesty has such a unique insight. Hou's younger sister fell in love at first sight, and Ben Hou still feels so happy that he is dreaming when he thinks that he will be the uncle of the country in the future."
Lin Jian covered her face silently, as expected, Bai Yixiao would never forget to take advantage of her.
"Heh." Grand Master Xu said with a disapproving smile, "Master Hou, don't be joking. As far as I know, Master Hou is the only son in the family and has no brothers or sisters?"
"I didn't want to expose my family's ugliness to the outside world, and my sister doesn't like it to be known. Now that you all suspect him, I can only say it." Bai Yixiao glanced at Lin Jian and said, "You guys also Knowing that Benhou's father had a child outside more than ten years ago, and Benhou's mother had a scene, it's really embarrassing to say it."
"The old minister remembers that the first Marquis did have a child." Grand Master Xu winked, and an old minister came out and asked, "But he died before he was born?"
"It's just a lie. After all, you all know the temper of my late mother, Princess Wuyang. It would be troublesome for my sister to pursue it. At that time, it was only the woman who died in childbirth. Outsiders can only say that the mother and child were not saved because of the childbirth. Things are over.”
Bai Yixiao's story came out as soon as he opened his mouth, and he didn't even need to type a draft: "Benhou's younger sister has actually been living well. Benhou's father bought a courtyard in the suburbs, and Benhou's younger sister has been growing up in another courtyard. , no one else knows."
Half of the ministers present were skeptical, and half of them almost believed it. They nodded with enlightenment, feeling that they were lucky enough to hear the truth about the only surviving family scandal of the royal family.
"Alas." Bai Yixiao sighed while the iron was hot, and looked at Lin Jian with affection in her eyes, "Poor my sister was lonely since she was a child, and only my brother depended on her. She has never seen such a big battle, and she is not in good health. Can you stand being so scared?"
Lin Jian: "..." His acting skills are so good that I almost believe it myself.
"I don't know that you will listen to the wind and rain like this. You say he is a spy of the enemy country, but he is a spy?" Bai Yixiao glanced at the ministers and asked, "Then I want to ask, he has harmed you. What, what harmed the Great Shang Dynasty, and what benefits did it give the enemy country?"
For a moment, the officials did not dare to look directly at Bai Yixiao, and they were all speechless.
If Queen Hou was really An Lehou's younger sister, then everything would indeed make sense.There is no name or surname on the roster of the harem, but it is easy to enter the palace, and no one dares to search even when entering the court.Although it is a crime to bring a knife into the court, so what if His Majesty doesn't pursue it?
"But..." Grand Master Xu said, "Even if what Lord Hou said is true, the person who died here today is a human life, and the queen is also suspected..."
"If you want to handle a murder case, someday you won't be able to do it. You must spoil His Majesty's interest today? It will delay the auspicious time for His Majesty to become a queen, or scare the queen. Who will take care of it?" Bai Yixiao glanced at Grand Master Xu and asked, "Grand Master Xu, are you here to take care of me?"
Grand Master Xu felt ashamed and winked at the officials next to him.
He Shangshu was about to go out to argue for Grand Master Xu, when the king on the jade steps suddenly said in a deep voice, "Where is the King who holds the gold?"
A general in black armor came out and said: "The minister is here."
"Qing leads the Jinwu Guards, who have the task of guarding the palace city." Luan Yunye signaled the guards to drag away the body lying on the red carpet, and glanced at the blood stains left on the carpet, "From now on, who If you try to disturb Jiali and frame the queen again, before I make an order, Jin Wuwei will kill you on the spot."
Zhi Jinwu clasped his fists and said, "I obey the order."
Luan Yunye took a look at He Shangshu who came out of the queue, and said in a deep voice, "What do you want to report?"
Facing the unfathomable and cold eyes like a knife in the dark night, He Shangshu's back turned cold, he dared not speak again and touched Ni Lin, tremblingly said: "I want to ask Your Majesty to make an order, and the post-sealing ceremony will continue..."
Luan Yunye nodded slightly.
Grand Master Xu frowned, and retreated into the queue together with He Shangshu disheartened.
Bai Yixiao raised her head, raised an eyebrow at Lin Jian, and retreated into the queue.
Lin Jian smiled knowingly at Bai Yixiao.
Luan Yunye glanced at Bai Yixiao unkindly, stared at the person beside him, saw that the corners of his lips were still slightly raised, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
The attendant said loudly: "Let's be happy, please Your Majesty grant the queen's seal."
The sound of solemn ceremony and music sounded again, and Luan Yunye took a seal carved from white jade from the tray covered with red silk, and handed it to Lin Jian.
On the seal of the white jade seal, a phoenix flapping its wings and about to fly is engraved, with a bright yellow tassel underneath, elegant and solemn.
Lin Jian took the jade seal with both hands, and solemnly placed it on the table beside him. The seal was facing the officials in the audience.
With a wave of Luan Yunye's hand, the maid holding an empty tray stepped back immediately, and another maid stepped forward holding a tray.
Lin Jian looked at Luan Yunye.I only heard that the canonized queen needs to give the queen's seal, but I don't know what else to give later?
There was a jade box on the tray in front of Luan Yunye, and a maid opened the box.Luan Yunye reached out and took out a ring from the box.
The gold backing is inlaid with a piece of light blue icy jadeite in the middle. The blue color is unique to the greenness in the mountains and forests covered by haze and mist when the sky is blue. Solemn dragon pattern.
Luan Yunye took Lin Jian's hand, solemnly put the ring on Lin Jian's left index finger, and held Lin Jian's hand to show off to the officials.
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
All the ministers knelt down and bowed, and the sound shook the palace.
Lin Jian didn't know the origin of this ring, but for him to put it on himself at the emerald ceremony, it must not only be that the jadeite is rare and valuable, but also have some special meaning, maybe in the country of Shang Similar to the queen's seal, it symbolizes the role of the queen's power status.
The waiter said: "All ministers salute again."
"The Empress is a thousand years old, a thousand thousand years old!"
"The ceremony is over." The waiter said loudly, "Retire."
The officials retreated from both sides in an orderly manner, leaving only the palace servants and guards standing on both sides.Luan Yunye glanced at Lin Jian and put his arms around Lin Jian's waist.Lin Jian was startled, and backed away slightly. Just as he was about to refuse, his waist loosened a little more, only then did he remember the skirt that was about to fall off his waist.
Although all the officials have retreated, there are still so many palace officials present.It would be even more embarrassing if it fell in public.
Lin Jian had no choice but to say in a low voice, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Luan Yunye remained silent, leaned over and picked Lin Jian up, and walked to the bedroom.
Eunuch Gao followed beside him, hurriedly following along, and cautiously reminded Luan Yunye: "Your Majesty, tonight we will give you a banquet at the Jiying Hall. Please take a rest in the bedroom after your majesty and empress have lunch. Gotta get ready to go."
Luan Yunye gave an indifferent "hmm" and didn't talk to Eunuch Gao again.Walking into the bedroom, put Lin Jian down, let him sit on the stool, and asked, "Are you tired?"
Lin Jian raised his hand to support the phoenix crown on his head, and replied, "My neck is about to break."
Luan Yunye raised his hand, supported the phoenix crown with one hand, pinched the gold hairpin on Lin Jian's head with the other, and carefully removed the nine gold hairpins used to fix the phoenix crown from his hair one by one.
After taking off the phoenix crown, the long black hair fell loose, Luan Yunye took one of the gold hairpins, and tied Lin Jian's long hair together.
The moment the phoenix crown was removed from his head, Lin Jian felt as if he had transformed into a fairy and soared into the sky, and he raised his hand to press his sore neck.
Lin Jian took a quick step with one hand, just pressing down on the sore spot on the back of Lin Jian's neck.
Lin Jian snorted comfortably, and felt the hand rubbing the back of his neck pause, and immediately realized his gaffe, and quickly stopped talking.But the way the people behind him rubbed and kneaded was really comfortable. Lin Jian could control himself from making a sound, but he couldn't control his heavy and chaotic breathing.
Disturbed by Lin Jian's chaotic breathing, Luan Yunye leaned over slightly, and lightly touched Lin Jian's reddish pinna with his thin lips.
The warm breath rushed to the ear, and something soft touched the pinnae of the ear. Lin Jian suddenly stood up from the stool. He was a little dazed when something happened. The skirt around his waist finally couldn't support it and fell apart. down.
Lin Jian hurriedly grabbed the skirt with one hand, blushed and said to Luan Yunye, "Can your majesty go out first and let me change clothes?"
Luan Yunye stared at Lin Jian's hand holding the skirt: "I'll change it for you."
Due to the presence of other people, Lin Jian couldn't avoid it, smiled awkwardly at Luan Yunye, and said, "I'm a little hungry, Your Majesty will help me see if lunch is ready?"
Eunuch Gao stood aside, sweating secretly, this man is really brave, it's not worth refusing His Majesty, but he dares to order His Majesty to do this or that.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, Luan Yunye answered "Okay", turned around and went to the imperial dining room.
Eunuch Gao hurriedly followed and ordered the palace guards to close the door tightly.
This complicated dress was really uncomfortable. Lin Jian unbuttoned the gorgeous robe, took off the loose skirt, all the complicated and layered middle clothes were removed, and put on a red embroidered gold gown casually. Fasten your belt.
Just when the door was pushed open with a "squeak", Luan Yunye walked into the bedroom, and the palace people who followed closely behind him put the food on the table one by one.
Lin Jian walked out of the tent, and saw two sets of bowls and chopsticks outside. The dishes were mostly light vegetables, and meat, eggs, fish and shrimp were boiled in clear water.In other words, Luan Yunye had to accompany him to eat these meals that were so pale at first sight.
A trace of doubt once again appeared in Lin Jian's heart, a little suspicious that Luan Yunye knew his identity in the first place.There were many suspicious things about him before, but he didn't ask, but when such a big thing happened today, he still didn't ask a word, it seemed that he never had the slightest doubt about himself, and he treated himself as carefully as before.
Even if it is out of trust in Bai Yixiao, what kind of emotion can make him trust Ai Wu and Wu to such an extent because of Bai Yixiao?
Moreover, the talk of love at first sight is obviously untenable, let alone a plain-looking man pretending to be a woman, even if he is as beautiful as a fairy, Lin Jian does not believe that a person like Luan Yunye will lose his mind just because he looks at his face.
But thinking about it carefully, if he knew everything, it wouldn't make sense for him to be so concerned about himself.I have met him frankly twice before, and every time he either imprisoned or threatened himself, his attitude towards "Lin Yue'er" was completely different.
He was considerate and considerate to Lin Yue'er, he could even be called pampering and indulgent. It seemed that he treated Lin Yue'er sincerely, and there was no flaw to be found. Lin Jian couldn't think of any ulterior motives for him for the time being.
Lin Jian thought to himself, even so, he still had to be careful of prying, so as not to be manipulated by him without knowing it.
Luan Yunye looked at Lin Jian, and saw that the fiery red tent was half-hanging on the golden hook. The person under the tent was dressed in red and had a long body, with long black hair reaching his waist, and a golden hairpin half-tied up. The skin and the golden red clothes complement each other, and the beauty is like jade, which is incomparable.
Luan Yunye's eyes were firmly locked on Lin Jian, and he was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses, seeing Lin Jian was also standing there looking at him, not coming over for a long time, and asked, "Aren't you hungry? Come over for dinner. "
Lin Jian nodded and walked forward silently.As soon as I sat down at the table, I fed a spoonful of soup to my lips: "Drink this first."
Lin Jian only said that it was medicine again, turned his head and ignored Luan Yunye, and went to pick up the chopsticks on the table and prepare to eat.
Luan Yunye said: "Sweet."
Lin Jian paused while holding the chopsticks, and glanced back quickly. Seeing that the color was light and did not look like medicinal juice, he put down the chopsticks, lowered his head and drank the soup that Luan Yunye fed to his lips.
Really sweet.
Lin Jian hadn't had sweet soup for many days, Lin Jian's eyes lit up, and he was about to drink again, when he heard Eunuch Gao's voice outside the door saying, "Physician Zhang is here, please come inside."
It's Doctor Zhang again!
Before waiting for Doctor Zhang to come in, he quickly took Luan Yunye's hand with one hand, lay down on Luan Yunye's hand and swallowed the soup in one gulp.
Last time, it was because of Dr. Zhang that half of what I ate was snatched from my mouth. This time I will preemptively strike and see how he snatches it.
Luan Yunye was slightly taken aback when he looked at the person drinking soup lying on his hands.
"See Your Majesty." Doctor Zhang was stunned when he saw Lin Jian lying on Luan Yunye's hand, and said with a smile, "This soup moistens your throat and relieves cough. Your Majesty said that you caught a cold in the morning and had a fever and coughed badly. He asked the old minister not to let you in at noon." It took half a day for the old minister to concoct this medicine that does not affect your drinking, but also allows you to eat a sweet formula."
"Do you think the old minister came to snatch food from you again? The old minister was ordered to see if you are better now."
Lin Jian blinked, then lowered his eyes to look at the empty bowl in Luan Yunye's hand, and hurriedly tried to get out of Luan Yunye's body.
According to the old practice of the Shang Dynasty, the emperor and empress would meet the people on this day, and personally sprinkle gold, silver, pearls, flowers and fruits on the streets. Those who snatch them will have a blessed and healthy life, and are called "blessings from the heavenly family" by the people. ".
But it is said that the new empress is not in good health and cannot bear today's trip around the city, and today the empress does not see the emperor personally coming to bless her.Although it is a bit regretful not to see the emperor and empress, this program has not been cancelled, and will be replaced by An Lehou, who is deeply loved by the people, to come to reward blessings.
"Father, who is An Lehou?" On the side of the road, a little girl with a double bun and a red ribbon raised her head and asked the middle-aged man beside her.
"An Lehou, he is the son of Princess Wuyang, the cousin of our current emperor." The middle-aged man lowered his head and explained to his daughter beside him, "Today will bless us on behalf of the heavenly family."
"Wow! That's amazing!" The little girl jumped up happily, "Then I will definitely grab a lot of fruit from the emperor's cousin today!"
Before the little girl could finish her words, the ending was drowned in the sighs of the crowd.Cheers erupted from both sides of the street.
The middle-aged man quickly picked up the little girl and let her ride on his shoulders.
The little girl looked at the middle of the road with big eyes without blinking, and saw the guards in black clothes on the outermost periphery, and hundreds of palace people in fiery red palace costumes in the middle surrounded a gorgeous car with veils flying , surrounded by countless precious stones, dazzling in the sun, so dazzling that it is hard to see clearly.
Surrounded by red gauze and precious stones, one can vaguely see a figure wearing a purple dress embroidered with silver and a silver crown inlaid with precious stones on his head. Go up three points.
"Anlehou! Anlehou!..." On both sides of the road, the young woman's hoarse shouts could be heard from time to time, "Anlehou!"
"It's so handsome, woo woo woo..." By the road, a woman burst into tears, "I've heard that An Lehou is so handsome and unparalleled, but I didn't expect him to be even more handsome than I thought..."
A woman wearing a red silk flower in a bun and a sheer gauze cried: "Bai Lang, you are a heartless person, and you haven't come to Baihualou for so long. It's so hard to see each other, and you just ignore me while sitting in the car, woo Woooo..."
Bai Yixiao sat in the car, smiled and waved to the people around him, took the brocade bag from the attendant, grabbed a handful and sprinkled it on both sides of the street.
The small flower decorations made of gold and silver and some auspicious grains and small fruits drew a perfect arc in the air and were looted before they hit the ground.
Bai Yixiao turned her head and said with a smile to her entourage: "Last time I saw so many people chasing the car, or is it that the girls in the Jinling of the Liang Kingdom are going to marry Prince Lin Hongjian. Who would have thought that this Marquis would be so popular with girls?"
The corner of the entourage's mouth twitched: "The prince of Liang Guo is really good and has nothing to say. But here, there are many brothel women you have patronized, chasing you to be responsible. Did you hear that?"
"Shut up, shut up." Bai Yixiao said dissatisfiedly while sprinkling fruit on the road, "Bai has been with me for so many years, how can he grow others' ambition and destroy my prestige? Can Lin Hongjian be as good-looking as me?"
The entourage asked frankly: "Where do you have the courage to compare with him?"
"For a man, it doesn't matter whether he is good-looking or not." Bai Yixiao changed his words shamelessly, "The important thing is that I can be friends with the most beautiful person in the world, but Lin Hongjian will never be able to."
The entourage was ashamed: "...This, you really won."
Bai Yixiao finally compared Lin Jian, and happily grabbed a handful of fruits and threw them on the side of the road.
Beside the road, the onlookers were still jostling for gold, silver and fruits.
There was a child who didn't grab the fruit and was crying on the side of the road. The adult comforted him: "There are still many opportunities. The car will not go back to the palace until the bell of the Royal Great Mercy Temple rings."
As soon as the adults finished speaking, a small fruit hit the child's head.
The child's eyes widened, and suddenly he grinned.
……
"when--"
"when--"
"when--"
"..."
The bell of the Royal Daci'en Temple rang nine times, and the solemn and distant bell rang throughout the country.
In front of the Jingming Hall of the Imperial Palace, in the middle of the white jade steps leading to the main hall, there is a red carpet more than a hundred feet long, and the gold thread is woven into thousands of auspicious pattern patterns that do not repeat.
Hundreds of officials line up on both sides of the red carpet, and the white jade steps in front of the hall are just like the ranks of high and low in the court.Songs, dances and musicians stand behind the officials.
On both sides of the white jade steps, there are hundreds of court ladies holding guards of honor, and there are countless jewels and treasures.
The waiter said loudly: "Play "The Chapter of Qingping"."
With the sound of ceremony and music, all the officials lined up on both sides respectfully, not daring to look sideways.
Among the solemn and elegant rites and music, there is only the sound of the ring pendant ding-dong and the pearls and jades, gradually approaching.
Under the bright sun, Luan Yunye took Lin Jian's hand and walked towards the main hall step by step along the red carpet surrounded by tens of thousands of people.
The minister's eyes did not dare to squint, only when the emperor and empress walked in front of him could he seize the opportunity to take a closer look.
The emperor is dressed in a crown dress, the luxurious golden light flows on the black robe, and the pearls and jade on the crown reflect the sunlight and are brighter than the stars.
The queen next to the emperor wore neat dresses and dignified demeanor, but she was still stunningly beautiful.The shadows on the temples and the clothes are light, with a thousand shapes [1].Like a sharp sword buried in flowers, it can be seen in the colorful colors, but the vigor of the clank is infiltrated with the fragrance of flowers.
Suddenly, Lin Jian felt a looseness in his waist.
The previous experience of the breast-length skirt slipping off gave Lin Jian a premonition that this time the skirt tied around the waist was getting looser and looser as she walked, and was about to slip off.
Lin Jian was led by Luan Yunye with one hand, and quietly used the other hand to lift the skirt quietly.
Although it was covered by a coat so that nothing could be revealed, the skirt on the inside slipped so badly that Lin Jian couldn't look aside. When going up the steps, the toe of his shoe stepped on the corner of the skirt, tripped and fell forward.
Luan Yunye, who was beside him, noticed something strange, and squeezed Lin Jian's hand and pulled him towards him.
Lin Jian was caught off guard and fell into Luan Yunye's arms.
Luan Yunye glanced down at Lin Jian's skirt, leaned over and picked him up, and walked up the white jade steps without changing his expression.
The ministers stared at the empress who was loving and loving before them, and they couldn't take their eyes off it. They thought to themselves that if they wanted to have a long-term official career under the moody emperor, it seemed necessary to please the empress more in the future.
Waiting for the emperor to walk up the jade steps, he can be worshiped by all the officials, and the waiter said loudly: "All the officials kowtow."
All the officials faced the Jingming Hall, knelt three times and kowtowed nine times, their voices shook the palace.
"After the ceremony, please stop." The waiter said, "Please grant the queen's seal to your majesty."
Four maids in auspicious clothes held trays covered with red silk, and presented the Queen's seal to Luan Yunye.
Luan Yunye raised his hand, and was about to lift the seal from the plate, when he heard a loud shout from the steps below: "Your Majesty cannot canonize Lin Yue'er!"
The sound of ritual and music stopped abruptly.
All the officials turned their heads in surprise when they heard the sound, only to see a court lady who was supposed to be standing aside ran out from the crowd, stood on the red carpet in the center, and said loudly to Luan Yunye: "I have something to say! "
Luan Yunye frowned slightly, and said coldly, "Who are you?"
"Your Majesty, the concubine is Ruofei!" the palace maid shouted, "Don't your majesty know the concubine?"
"What do you intend to do to disturb Jiali?" Luan Yunye said coldly, "Come here, delay."
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Ruo anxiously pointed at Lin Jian and shouted as she struggled to get rid of the guards who tried to drag her away, "This Lin Yue'er's identity is unknown and her origin is unknown! The list of concubines in the Sangong Sixth Courtyard After checking, there is no such person! She is a palace maid in disguise! She also sneaked into the court with weapons! She must be..."
Concubine Ruo didn't finish her sentence, her eyes widened suddenly, two streams of scarlet blood flowed from her eyes.
But in a moment, the seven orifices bleed, and he fell to the ground and died.
Seeing the man bleeding from seven orifices on the ground, the officials were shocked and began to discuss quietly.
A guard stepped forward to check the situation, and reported to Luan Yunye on one knee, "His Majesty, Concubine Ruo has been poisoned and died."
Lin Jian looked down at the corpse on the ground and frowned slightly.
An old minister came out and said: "Your Majesty, this concubine Ruo just mentioned that the name of the queen could not be found in the roster of the Sangong and Six Courts. It must have been noticed when she went to the harem to check the roster."
"The man was afraid that Concubine Ruo would tell the truth, so he had planned to kill her long ago. It's just that she didn't expect that Concubine Ruo would have the opportunity to tell His Majesty the truth before she died - from this point of view, there must be enemy spies in this palace! "
All the ministers looked at each other knowingly, no one knew who this "enemy country spy" was referring to.
Lin Jian thought to himself, if he or his subordinates wanted to kill people and silence them, they would have taken her life without anyone noticing it, so why would they wait for her to "reveal" in this post-event ceremony.What's more, that person stepped forward to "reveal", and died of anger after only saying a few words, which just happened to make everyone point the finger at him, and the calculation should not be too obvious.
Such blatant planting and framing is because he has no power in the court, and most of the officials are dissatisfied with his humble status as a court lady.No matter how obvious it is to frame and frame at this time, the ministers will choose to be wise and protect themselves, and no one will stand up to speak for someone who has nothing to do with them.
Lin Jian's figure swayed slightly, and he vaguely remembered that night more than ten years ago, when the mother and concubine wept silently under the lamp alone, and fell ill within a few days.
The cause is like today, on the day when the first emperor was about to seal the empress, a court lady suddenly went mad and yelled out slander, bleeding to death from her seven orifices.Countless ministers attacked the mother and concubine, saying that the lowly princess of a foreign race was not worthy of being a queen.
Rumors are the cruelest murder weapon in the world.Once it starts, it is like a river bursting its bank. Although there is no blood, it can eat people without spitting out bones.Those who stand under this broken embankment, even if they try their best to spend their whole life, can only die in agony by the bone-chilling water erosion inch by inch, and eventually even their corpses are annihilated by the turbulent and turbulent waves.
No matter how much people trust each other, the three of them will eventually become tigers, become accomplices of rumors, and turn into the last huge wave that destroys those who stand in the storm.
They all say reincarnation.This scene is so similar.
Feeling the person beside him swaying slightly, Luan Yunye held Lin Jian's hand and whispered in Lin Jian's ear, "But are you tired? Can I take you back to the bedroom to rest?"
Lin Jian quietly pulled his hand out of Luan Yunye's palm, closed his eyes and said nothing, only the trembling long eyelashes betrayed the turmoil in his heart at the moment.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Ruo said before her death that the identity of the Empress was unknown. At that time, the dagger she carried in the hall was even more suspicious. Wouldn't it be extremely dangerous to leave such a person beside the pillow?" A minister came out and said.
Another minister came out and said: "The safety of the king is related to the stability of the country and the country. Please take more precautions, and don't trust others. Why don't you temporarily imprison the queen and ask the Secretary to investigate the matter carefully, and then do it after the truth is found out." It’s not too late to deal with it.”
"Report to Your Majesty." Another minister came out, "It is an indisputable fact that Concubine Ruo was murdered. Human life is at stake. Concubine Ruo testified against the Queen before she was alive, and now the only one who has the motive to kill Concubine Ruo is the Queen." .”
All the ministers knelt down and said in unison: "Your Majesty, please temporarily detain the queen and find out the truth."
Lin Jian regained consciousness from a trance and opened his eyes.
All the officials bowed before them, which was very similar to the scene where Liang Guo's officials killed people with empty words.
His mother was crying alone, Lin Jian's hands trembled uncontrollably, he calmed down, and secretly clenched the hands under his long sleeves.
Although it is true that their identities are false, if they are allowed to slander them as "enemy spies" and sit in the palace of the Shang Dynasty and install forces to wantonly kill concubines, they will be criticized by others, and it will definitely affect the peace talks between the two countries.
But Lin Jian couldn't stand up and say that this was framed.Even if there was one person present who stood up and questioned that this was a frame-up, he would find that the so-called killing and murder of himself as a spy was full of doubts.However, if you stand up and explain yourself, not only will no one believe it, but you will fall into the hands of those who are planning to frame you - the sophistry will become darker and darker.
What's more, when an ordinary woman encounters the situation in front of her, even if she doesn't faint from fright, she will be more or less confused. How can she calmly find out the loopholes in the incident to explain herself.The more reasonable and well-founded he explained at this time, the more suspicious Luan Yunye was.
Based on Lin Jian's understanding of Luan Yunye in the past few days, he was deeply thoughtful, and it was impossible for him not to see the problem with this kind of framing trick, and he probably didn't need to explain himself.The enemy country will not send a man without a chest to be a spy. The more unfavorable his reaction is at this time, the more stupid and naive he looks, the easier it is for him to believe that he is not a spy.
Luan Yunye didn't check his details before, as Bai Yixiao said, it was out of trust in his recommendation to enter the palace, so once he aroused Luan Yunye's suspicion, he would definitely implicate Bai Yixiao.
Right now, other things can be ignored for the time being, but Luan Yunye's trust must be won first, and other things can be slowly found a way to get back.
As a spy, at this time, fighting with reason or "declaring one's will with death" will hit the opponent's arms and make the opponent more interesting to do.
It's better to retreat and pretend to be self-defeating, firstly, to follow their wishes so that they can't continue to pursue, and secondly, to give Luan Yunye the "husband and wife love" that Luan Yunye wanted.
Lin Jian took a step back, knelt down in front of Luan Yunye, and his voice was soft and pleasant to hear, with a somewhat hoarse voice: "Although this concubine is suspected by thousands of people, it is not worth it, but since this concubine is married to His Majesty, I am willing to marry you with His Majesty." Life and death depend on each other, and the most precious thing in my heart is His Majesty's trust. If there is a rift between us and His Majesty at this time, my concubine will be very afraid."
"The concubine heard that there must be evidence for everything, no matter whether there are spies in the palace or not, but it is a fact that someone died, and the concubine is more concerned about the safety of his majesty. Since the concubine is suspected, I dare not justify myself with empty words and is willing to accept Review, rest assured His Majesty and all the adults."
Evidence is needed in everything, and the presence of spies in the palace is just speculation, and there is no factual evidence.Murder is also a false accusation, and the attitude of being willing to accept scrutiny is no longer insincere.
Besides, for a normal spy, at this time, the most important thing to fear is censorship, if not to argue hard, at least to die.It's better to have a "death to show one's will" to make His Majesty sympathize and feel guilty, and maybe give up the pursuit of the forces she has planted in the country.There is no spy who does not try to avoid censorship, which spy would take the initiative to ask His Majesty to censor himself?
Moreover, the queen has no influence in the court, so she naively thought that the review would definitely clear him up. It seemed that she was completely ignorant of court struggles. How could there be a plan for a person sent by the enemy to be a spy?
Some ministers began to secretly exchange glances, and seemed to have noticed the problem.
Lin Jian suddenly remembered the sour poem that Luan Yunye read to him that night, looked up at Luan Yunye and said, "I wholeheartedly believe that Your Majesty can find out the truth, and I only hope that your heart is like mine'."
Luan Yunye's eyes were only on the person kneeling in front of him from beginning to end.Hearing his last words, he narrowed his eyes slightly.
Grand Master Xu winked, and immediately a minister came out to report: "Your Majesty, since the Empress is willing to accept the review, that would be great. I beseech Your Majesty to investigate strictly!"
"Your Majesty." Prime Minister Lu stood up and knelt down on the steps and said, "Although the old minister opposed His Majesty's appointment before, after looking at it today, the old minister thinks that the empress's actions and words are open and aboveboard, and she is affectionate and righteous to her majesty. Because of one-sided words, I wronged the empress."
"Just now, the empress also said that everything should be based on evidence, and I think so. Although Concubine Ruo said that she could not be found in the roster in the palace, she is empty-handed. Why not adjust the roster to have a look? In addition, this Concubine Ruo died strangely. I have been testifying against the empress before, but there is no evidence to prove that the empress did it, and this matter still needs to be investigated."
"As for the spies, it can only be said to be speculation, and may not really exist. Don't abolish the gift of the empress because of some 'unfounded' remarks. Isn't this a family of generosity?"
Luan Yunye spread out his palms in front of Lin Jian: "What the Prime Minister said makes sense."
Lin Jian glanced at Luan Yunye's hand in front of him, and in front of so many people, he could only pass it over.
Luan Yunye held Lin Jian's hand and helped him up from the ground.
Lin Jian turned his head and glanced at Prime Minister Lu who was standing at the bottom of the stairs. He remembered meeting him in the court hall that day, and thought that Luan Yunye, a prime minister with a calm mind and the ability to speak up for justice, was a rare minister.
"Your Majesty!" Seeing that the momentum is not good, Grand Master Xu got up and said, "Although the spies are just speculations, they may not be groundless. Since the prime minister said that what Concubine Ruo said may not be true, then please ask the palace supervisor to submit the list of all palace personnel for investigation. Check if there is the name of the empress? If there is, then the lie will be self-defeating, and someone must be framing the empress."
"If not, then the old minister would like to have the courage to ask the empress to explain, where is the empress's home? How to enter the palace, how to enter the court hall, and why do you carry weapons on the court hall?"
"Grand Master asked a good question." Suddenly, a loud voice sounded from behind all the ministers, "I can testify for Grand Master that there must be no empress's name in the roster of palace personnel in the harem! And the empress must not dare to say who she is Family background, what origin!"
"The queen is a spy, please Your Majesty order the queen to be executed on the spot!"
Hearing the sound, all the ministers turned their heads and looked behind them in surprise.
I saw An Lehou wearing a silver crown inlaid with amethysts on his head, and wearing a purple embroidered silver dress, looking dazzling under the sun, walking calmly through the red carpet on the ground, and stopped beside Grand Master Xu.
"See Your Majesty, see the Empress. This minister has completed his mission and came back." Bai Yixiao saluted the Empress, looked back at Grand Master Xu and said with a smile, "Grand Master Xu, did this Marquis express what Grand Master wanted?"
An Lehou has always been idle and doesn't care about government affairs, but now he stands up to speak for him, could it be that he has the intention of wooing him?But listening to this tone, it seemed that he was here to trouble himself.Grand Master Xu asked with a fake smile, "Could it be that Lord Hou has long been suspicious of the queen, secretly investigated the queen, and found out that the queen's origin is unknown and she is suspected of being a spy?"
"Secret investigation, that's not true. Foreign ministers have no right to investigate the harem roster, and this Marquis is not some powerful and powerful man with all-hands and eyes, and he doesn't have a daughter who is convenient in the palace. How can I find this?" Bai Yixiao Looking at Grand Master Xu, he said with a smile, "Besides, why should Benhou bother to investigate his own sister?"
Grand Master Xu was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "What is the meaning of this, Master Hou?"
"It's true that the queen's name can't be found in the palace roster. That's because the Marquis hasn't had time to get him in. He was sent into the palace through the back door a few days ago." Ashamed.
This is indeed An Lehou's usual style.
A minister who has always claimed to be upright and upright has shown contempt.
"At first, I planned to slowly find opportunities for her to be included in the compilation. Who would have thought that Ben Hou's younger sister is so beautiful, beautiful, and intelligent, so she is lucky enough to be favored by His Majesty." Bai Yixiao raised her eyebrows proudly, "Your Majesty has such a unique insight. Hou's younger sister fell in love at first sight, and Ben Hou still feels so happy that he is dreaming when he thinks that he will be the uncle of the country in the future."
Lin Jian covered her face silently, as expected, Bai Yixiao would never forget to take advantage of her.
"Heh." Grand Master Xu said with a disapproving smile, "Master Hou, don't be joking. As far as I know, Master Hou is the only son in the family and has no brothers or sisters?"
"I didn't want to expose my family's ugliness to the outside world, and my sister doesn't like it to be known. Now that you all suspect him, I can only say it." Bai Yixiao glanced at Lin Jian and said, "You guys also Knowing that Benhou's father had a child outside more than ten years ago, and Benhou's mother had a scene, it's really embarrassing to say it."
"The old minister remembers that the first Marquis did have a child." Grand Master Xu winked, and an old minister came out and asked, "But he died before he was born?"
"It's just a lie. After all, you all know the temper of my late mother, Princess Wuyang. It would be troublesome for my sister to pursue it. At that time, it was only the woman who died in childbirth. Outsiders can only say that the mother and child were not saved because of the childbirth. Things are over.”
Bai Yixiao's story came out as soon as he opened his mouth, and he didn't even need to type a draft: "Benhou's younger sister has actually been living well. Benhou's father bought a courtyard in the suburbs, and Benhou's younger sister has been growing up in another courtyard. , no one else knows."
Half of the ministers present were skeptical, and half of them almost believed it. They nodded with enlightenment, feeling that they were lucky enough to hear the truth about the only surviving family scandal of the royal family.
"Alas." Bai Yixiao sighed while the iron was hot, and looked at Lin Jian with affection in her eyes, "Poor my sister was lonely since she was a child, and only my brother depended on her. She has never seen such a big battle, and she is not in good health. Can you stand being so scared?"
Lin Jian: "..." His acting skills are so good that I almost believe it myself.
"I don't know that you will listen to the wind and rain like this. You say he is a spy of the enemy country, but he is a spy?" Bai Yixiao glanced at the ministers and asked, "Then I want to ask, he has harmed you. What, what harmed the Great Shang Dynasty, and what benefits did it give the enemy country?"
For a moment, the officials did not dare to look directly at Bai Yixiao, and they were all speechless.
If Queen Hou was really An Lehou's younger sister, then everything would indeed make sense.There is no name or surname on the roster of the harem, but it is easy to enter the palace, and no one dares to search even when entering the court.Although it is a crime to bring a knife into the court, so what if His Majesty doesn't pursue it?
"But..." Grand Master Xu said, "Even if what Lord Hou said is true, the person who died here today is a human life, and the queen is also suspected..."
"If you want to handle a murder case, someday you won't be able to do it. You must spoil His Majesty's interest today? It will delay the auspicious time for His Majesty to become a queen, or scare the queen. Who will take care of it?" Bai Yixiao glanced at Grand Master Xu and asked, "Grand Master Xu, are you here to take care of me?"
Grand Master Xu felt ashamed and winked at the officials next to him.
He Shangshu was about to go out to argue for Grand Master Xu, when the king on the jade steps suddenly said in a deep voice, "Where is the King who holds the gold?"
A general in black armor came out and said: "The minister is here."
"Qing leads the Jinwu Guards, who have the task of guarding the palace city." Luan Yunye signaled the guards to drag away the body lying on the red carpet, and glanced at the blood stains left on the carpet, "From now on, who If you try to disturb Jiali and frame the queen again, before I make an order, Jin Wuwei will kill you on the spot."
Zhi Jinwu clasped his fists and said, "I obey the order."
Luan Yunye took a look at He Shangshu who came out of the queue, and said in a deep voice, "What do you want to report?"
Facing the unfathomable and cold eyes like a knife in the dark night, He Shangshu's back turned cold, he dared not speak again and touched Ni Lin, tremblingly said: "I want to ask Your Majesty to make an order, and the post-sealing ceremony will continue..."
Luan Yunye nodded slightly.
Grand Master Xu frowned, and retreated into the queue together with He Shangshu disheartened.
Bai Yixiao raised her head, raised an eyebrow at Lin Jian, and retreated into the queue.
Lin Jian smiled knowingly at Bai Yixiao.
Luan Yunye glanced at Bai Yixiao unkindly, stared at the person beside him, saw that the corners of his lips were still slightly raised, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
The attendant said loudly: "Let's be happy, please Your Majesty grant the queen's seal."
The sound of solemn ceremony and music sounded again, and Luan Yunye took a seal carved from white jade from the tray covered with red silk, and handed it to Lin Jian.
On the seal of the white jade seal, a phoenix flapping its wings and about to fly is engraved, with a bright yellow tassel underneath, elegant and solemn.
Lin Jian took the jade seal with both hands, and solemnly placed it on the table beside him. The seal was facing the officials in the audience.
With a wave of Luan Yunye's hand, the maid holding an empty tray stepped back immediately, and another maid stepped forward holding a tray.
Lin Jian looked at Luan Yunye.I only heard that the canonized queen needs to give the queen's seal, but I don't know what else to give later?
There was a jade box on the tray in front of Luan Yunye, and a maid opened the box.Luan Yunye reached out and took out a ring from the box.
The gold backing is inlaid with a piece of light blue icy jadeite in the middle. The blue color is unique to the greenness in the mountains and forests covered by haze and mist when the sky is blue. Solemn dragon pattern.
Luan Yunye took Lin Jian's hand, solemnly put the ring on Lin Jian's left index finger, and held Lin Jian's hand to show off to the officials.
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
All the ministers knelt down and bowed, and the sound shook the palace.
Lin Jian didn't know the origin of this ring, but for him to put it on himself at the emerald ceremony, it must not only be that the jadeite is rare and valuable, but also have some special meaning, maybe in the country of Shang Similar to the queen's seal, it symbolizes the role of the queen's power status.
The waiter said: "All ministers salute again."
"The Empress is a thousand years old, a thousand thousand years old!"
"The ceremony is over." The waiter said loudly, "Retire."
The officials retreated from both sides in an orderly manner, leaving only the palace servants and guards standing on both sides.Luan Yunye glanced at Lin Jian and put his arms around Lin Jian's waist.Lin Jian was startled, and backed away slightly. Just as he was about to refuse, his waist loosened a little more, only then did he remember the skirt that was about to fall off his waist.
Although all the officials have retreated, there are still so many palace officials present.It would be even more embarrassing if it fell in public.
Lin Jian had no choice but to say in a low voice, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Luan Yunye remained silent, leaned over and picked Lin Jian up, and walked to the bedroom.
Eunuch Gao followed beside him, hurriedly following along, and cautiously reminded Luan Yunye: "Your Majesty, tonight we will give you a banquet at the Jiying Hall. Please take a rest in the bedroom after your majesty and empress have lunch. Gotta get ready to go."
Luan Yunye gave an indifferent "hmm" and didn't talk to Eunuch Gao again.Walking into the bedroom, put Lin Jian down, let him sit on the stool, and asked, "Are you tired?"
Lin Jian raised his hand to support the phoenix crown on his head, and replied, "My neck is about to break."
Luan Yunye raised his hand, supported the phoenix crown with one hand, pinched the gold hairpin on Lin Jian's head with the other, and carefully removed the nine gold hairpins used to fix the phoenix crown from his hair one by one.
After taking off the phoenix crown, the long black hair fell loose, Luan Yunye took one of the gold hairpins, and tied Lin Jian's long hair together.
The moment the phoenix crown was removed from his head, Lin Jian felt as if he had transformed into a fairy and soared into the sky, and he raised his hand to press his sore neck.
Lin Jian took a quick step with one hand, just pressing down on the sore spot on the back of Lin Jian's neck.
Lin Jian snorted comfortably, and felt the hand rubbing the back of his neck pause, and immediately realized his gaffe, and quickly stopped talking.But the way the people behind him rubbed and kneaded was really comfortable. Lin Jian could control himself from making a sound, but he couldn't control his heavy and chaotic breathing.
Disturbed by Lin Jian's chaotic breathing, Luan Yunye leaned over slightly, and lightly touched Lin Jian's reddish pinna with his thin lips.
The warm breath rushed to the ear, and something soft touched the pinnae of the ear. Lin Jian suddenly stood up from the stool. He was a little dazed when something happened. The skirt around his waist finally couldn't support it and fell apart. down.
Lin Jian hurriedly grabbed the skirt with one hand, blushed and said to Luan Yunye, "Can your majesty go out first and let me change clothes?"
Luan Yunye stared at Lin Jian's hand holding the skirt: "I'll change it for you."
Due to the presence of other people, Lin Jian couldn't avoid it, smiled awkwardly at Luan Yunye, and said, "I'm a little hungry, Your Majesty will help me see if lunch is ready?"
Eunuch Gao stood aside, sweating secretly, this man is really brave, it's not worth refusing His Majesty, but he dares to order His Majesty to do this or that.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, Luan Yunye answered "Okay", turned around and went to the imperial dining room.
Eunuch Gao hurriedly followed and ordered the palace guards to close the door tightly.
This complicated dress was really uncomfortable. Lin Jian unbuttoned the gorgeous robe, took off the loose skirt, all the complicated and layered middle clothes were removed, and put on a red embroidered gold gown casually. Fasten your belt.
Just when the door was pushed open with a "squeak", Luan Yunye walked into the bedroom, and the palace people who followed closely behind him put the food on the table one by one.
Lin Jian walked out of the tent, and saw two sets of bowls and chopsticks outside. The dishes were mostly light vegetables, and meat, eggs, fish and shrimp were boiled in clear water.In other words, Luan Yunye had to accompany him to eat these meals that were so pale at first sight.
A trace of doubt once again appeared in Lin Jian's heart, a little suspicious that Luan Yunye knew his identity in the first place.There were many suspicious things about him before, but he didn't ask, but when such a big thing happened today, he still didn't ask a word, it seemed that he never had the slightest doubt about himself, and he treated himself as carefully as before.
Even if it is out of trust in Bai Yixiao, what kind of emotion can make him trust Ai Wu and Wu to such an extent because of Bai Yixiao?
Moreover, the talk of love at first sight is obviously untenable, let alone a plain-looking man pretending to be a woman, even if he is as beautiful as a fairy, Lin Jian does not believe that a person like Luan Yunye will lose his mind just because he looks at his face.
But thinking about it carefully, if he knew everything, it wouldn't make sense for him to be so concerned about himself.I have met him frankly twice before, and every time he either imprisoned or threatened himself, his attitude towards "Lin Yue'er" was completely different.
He was considerate and considerate to Lin Yue'er, he could even be called pampering and indulgent. It seemed that he treated Lin Yue'er sincerely, and there was no flaw to be found. Lin Jian couldn't think of any ulterior motives for him for the time being.
Lin Jian thought to himself, even so, he still had to be careful of prying, so as not to be manipulated by him without knowing it.
Luan Yunye looked at Lin Jian, and saw that the fiery red tent was half-hanging on the golden hook. The person under the tent was dressed in red and had a long body, with long black hair reaching his waist, and a golden hairpin half-tied up. The skin and the golden red clothes complement each other, and the beauty is like jade, which is incomparable.
Luan Yunye's eyes were firmly locked on Lin Jian, and he was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses, seeing Lin Jian was also standing there looking at him, not coming over for a long time, and asked, "Aren't you hungry? Come over for dinner. "
Lin Jian nodded and walked forward silently.As soon as I sat down at the table, I fed a spoonful of soup to my lips: "Drink this first."
Lin Jian only said that it was medicine again, turned his head and ignored Luan Yunye, and went to pick up the chopsticks on the table and prepare to eat.
Luan Yunye said: "Sweet."
Lin Jian paused while holding the chopsticks, and glanced back quickly. Seeing that the color was light and did not look like medicinal juice, he put down the chopsticks, lowered his head and drank the soup that Luan Yunye fed to his lips.
Really sweet.
Lin Jian hadn't had sweet soup for many days, Lin Jian's eyes lit up, and he was about to drink again, when he heard Eunuch Gao's voice outside the door saying, "Physician Zhang is here, please come inside."
It's Doctor Zhang again!
Before waiting for Doctor Zhang to come in, he quickly took Luan Yunye's hand with one hand, lay down on Luan Yunye's hand and swallowed the soup in one gulp.
Last time, it was because of Dr. Zhang that half of what I ate was snatched from my mouth. This time I will preemptively strike and see how he snatches it.
Luan Yunye was slightly taken aback when he looked at the person drinking soup lying on his hands.
"See Your Majesty." Doctor Zhang was stunned when he saw Lin Jian lying on Luan Yunye's hand, and said with a smile, "This soup moistens your throat and relieves cough. Your Majesty said that you caught a cold in the morning and had a fever and coughed badly. He asked the old minister not to let you in at noon." It took half a day for the old minister to concoct this medicine that does not affect your drinking, but also allows you to eat a sweet formula."
"Do you think the old minister came to snatch food from you again? The old minister was ordered to see if you are better now."
Lin Jian blinked, then lowered his eyes to look at the empty bowl in Luan Yunye's hand, and hurriedly tried to get out of Luan Yunye's body.
