[Qing Chuan] No pet little promise

Concubine De took out another letter, "Director Liang also left a letter, expressing his speculation about this matter."

In the letter, Liang Jiugong didn't speculate too much, but simply told how he saw the prince standing by the river when he found the emperor fell into the water.

"Absurd, absurd! Because of the one-sided words of these dogs, you even suspect that you are doing such a rebellious thing." The prince pointed at the ministers and complained all over his face. Branches and sticks. But in just a short moment, these people with ulterior motives will be used as criminal evidence."

As he said that, the prince fell down in front of Kangxi's coffin and burst into tears.

"Huang Ama, open your eyes and take a look. You have only been gone for a long time, and someone forced and tortured your son! Back then, when Oboi was a party, how could he be so arrogant?"

All the ministers hesitated. Even if the rescue was slow, the prince might have been petrified and could not prove his subjective malice.The scars on the hands may also be caught during the follow-up rescue.

There was silence in the hall, only the prince was crying in grief.

Suo'etu saw that the fire was almost ready, and was about to go up to appease the prince, and scolded these unruly ministers by the way.

Defei suddenly showed a smile.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, dare to swear before the spirit that the matter of the late emperor's falling into the water has nothing to do with you?"

The prince's howling paused, and immediately changed to: "God is above, if I have a lie, I am willing to go to the fiery hell and perish forever."

The officials were speechless, what use would such a thing be to swear?Concubine De is really a woman's opinion.

At this moment, a strange thing happened. There was no wind, and no one moved. The curtain hanging above the coffin suddenly caught fire.

The hall was full of people, because it was daytime, the lamps, candles and charcoal basins were all extinguished, and the flames burned for no reason, and along the curtain went straight to the front of the coffin, in the direction where the prince stood.

Everyone felt a chilling fear.

The most shocking thing among them was the prince himself. He stared blankly at the approach of the flames, which burned all the way to the hem of his mourning clothes.

He jumped to his feet screaming violently, throwing himself hard.

It was the two young eunuchs at the back who came forward to help and extinguished the flames.

The prince stood in the hall in a state of embarrassment, looked up, and suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

Everyone stared at him wrongly.

"I'm alone!" he said tremblingly.

Before he finished speaking, sparks rose again on the other side, which also appeared out of thin air without any warning.

Everyone in the hall trembled.Witness this supernatural phenomenon with your own eyes.

The prince collapsed directly. For so many days and nights, the guilt he was carrying surged up, and the tight string broke suddenly.

He fell to his knees with a plop, kowtowed towards the coffin, crying,

"Huang Ama, it's really not my fault. I really didn't do it on purpose. I just pushed you because I regarded you as the third elder brother."

……

***

Wei Rong was wearing a jade green cloak, standing at the gate of Changchun Palace.

The distant bells sounded with the spring breeze in the morning, melodious and far-reaching.

This is the bell for the ascension of the new emperor.

Presumably, this voice will spread throughout the capital and the whole world soon.

Since the day when Emperor Daxing was buried last month, Concubine Rong suddenly launched an attack, followed by Concubine De, after exposing the crown prince's guilt of killing his father, the situation has changed.

The prince collapsed in horror and confessed his guilt of killing his father.Although it was not intentional, it was just a coincidence.But the big mistake was finally made.Of course, such a person cannot inherit the great rule.

In the end, all the ministers agreed to abolish the crown prince's position and imprison him.

Emperor Daxing was buried as scheduled, and which prince will ascend the throne next has become the biggest focus.

The eldest brother and the third elder brother are both dead, and the crown prince has banned them. One of the fifth and seventh elder brothers is unlearned and incompetent, the other is disabled, and the remaining princes are still young children.

It was a matter of course that the fourth elder brother Yinzhen was able to inherit the great line, and it happened that Concubine De was promoted to Noble Concubine a few months ago, No. 1 in the harem, and in terms of mother's blood, she was also the most noble.

All work etiquettes for enthronement have already been prepared.Seven days after Emperor Daxing was buried, a grand ceremony was held in Qianqing Palace, and the fourth prince, Yinzhen, ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.

At the same time, Wei Rong was finally able to leave the palace.

Because the prince made a decree before, the candidate for the marriage became Sangege of Prince Yu's Mansion. She, the daughter of the Guo Luoluo family, was kicked out and returned home.

As the wheels of the car drove across the bluestone slabs, the regular sound came, which met with the long bell in the distance and merged into a special tone.

Finally reaching the palace gate, Wei Rong couldn't help but lift the curtains.

Looking at this palace that has been guarded since crossing, finally came the day of parting.

His eyes swept over the familiar pavilions, red walls and golden tiles, and he was fascinated by it. Suddenly, on the tower in the distance, a shadow in a silver-gray cloak flashed faintly, which looked very familiar.

Wei Rong rubbed her eyes, it seemed to be Yinzhen!

She must have misunderstood, today is the day of his enthronement, he should be very busy, there is no way he has time to come here.

It's just that the figure became more and more similar, Wei Rong's eyes widened.

The carriage moved quickly, passed the thick city wall in a blink of an eye, and left everything behind.

It took Wei Rong a long time to wake up from the shock, but she still couldn't tell if she was wrong.

***

Seeing that the carriage finally went away, Xiao Shengzi quietly reminded: "Your Majesty, hurry back."

There are still ancestor worship ceremonies waiting at the Temple of Heaven.Today's whole day of etiquette, there is almost no free time, but this courtier who left behind the solemn ceremony and the waiting in the hall, came here to see someone off.

Yinzhen responded and looked away.

What kind of mood did she feel when she left here, did she have nostalgia, or was she just purely happy?

Imagining her appearance at this time, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

But in the near future, she will still come back to her side.

***

Yufu's voice brought Wei Rong back to Fangfei's thoughts.

"I didn't expect the fourth elder brother to ascend the throne in the end. It's unbelievable." Yufu sighed.The prince has been the prince for more than [-] years, and everyone inside and outside the court and the public are used to this being the heir of Kangxi.

"Isn't it? Who told the prince...that one to commit such a crime." Yulian murmured softly.Thinking that she was no longer in the palace, her voice gradually became louder.

The two were taken away by the Prince's men last time, and they both suffered a lot, but fortunately they survived within a few days and were sent back to Wei Rong's side.

Out of the palace gate, Yufu spoke a lot more casually, and she pulled herself together: "I heard that it was the late emperor who appeared in person, scolded the crown prince in front of the coffin, and made him bow his head in defeat, and confessed guilty."

Yulian's eyes widened: "Didn't it mean that Concubine Degui and Concubine Rong found out the truth and discussed with all the adults before exposing this matter?"

Receiving Wei Rong's suspicious gaze, Yufu hurriedly elaborated, "I heard Xiao Shunzi, who was sweeping the yard outside, and Xiao Lizi talking in secret. I heard that on the day the late emperor was buried, the weather was supposed to be fine, and the prince knelt on his knees. When the spirit was crying, suddenly the situation changed suddenly, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and several thunderbolts struck in front of the spirit, directly hitting the prince.

"The weather was fine that day." Wei Rong questioned.

"Master remembers correctly, the weather outside is good, only the area in Qianqing Palace is covered with dark clouds, lightning flashes and thunder, isn't it the manifestation of the late emperor?" Yu Fu clasped his hands together, "I heard that the evidence of the two empresses is also the evidence of the late emperor. It was only in a dream that I asked them to find out. It can be seen that the laws of heaven are clear and people are at ease."

Yulian opened her mouth wide.

Wei Rong could only smile.

According to the statement made public by the court, Concubine Degui and Concubine Rong found out the truth and exposed the matter.But there were too many witnesses that day, and it was simply overwhelming.A vision occurred in front of the emperor's spirit, and God's will was directed at the prince!The evil deeds were finally exposed, and the latter statement is obviously more contagious than the former one.

Of course, no one knows the secrets of these "visions" better than Wei Rong.After all, she did it all by herself.

She didn't expect that the credible person Liang Jiugong said at the beginning that he had handed over the evidence turned out to be Concubine De.

What shocked her even more was that Concubine De knew more than Liang Jiugong. The so-called "some supernatural powers" actually asked her directly if she knew the secret technique of hiding her figure.

Did you believe what Big Brother said before?Wei Rong smiled wryly, in this palace, there really are no secrets.

Then Concubine De made that plan with her.Kangxi performed a good show before his death.

Finally revealed the true face of the prince.

Looking back afterwards, Wei Rong felt a little proud of witnessing history, and he didn't know how this day would be recorded in the annals of later generations.

Compared with her emotion, the two girls' thoughts are more practical.

"I wonder how Guo Luoluo's mansion is?" Yulian said anxiously.

Yufu comforted her, "Gege has the status of a country monarch bestowed by the emperor, she is different from ordinary girls, don't be afraid."

He spoke comforting words, but his tone was a little fluttering.Wei Rong understands very well that she is also worried about her future life.

It's ridiculous to say that Kangxi probably made his identity as a concubine of the Guo Luoluo family very realistic in order to conceal her identity as a concubine.

The third master of the Guo Luoluo family had been an official in the south for more than ten years, and his family lived in Jiangnan for many years.There are one son and two daughters, the son and the youngest daughter are descendants of the concubine, and only the eldest daughter is the concubine.

At the beginning of last year, he took his wife and children back to Beijing to report his duties. After passing through a local post station, he happened to encounter a seasonal epidemic. The whole family fell ill and died one after another within more than ten days.

The eldest daughter who died happened to be the same age as Wei Rong. Before the news of her death spread, the Ministry of Internal Affairs arranged for her to take over this identity and became an orphan returning to the capital.

"Anyway, our Gege is rich now, even if he is a concubine, we don't have to care about that." Yufu encouraged.

In the boxes of the first few carriages, there were many rewards.

These rewards were all arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The original plan for her marriage was changed, and some compensation was given for sending him out of the palace.

Wei Rong doubted that these things were prepared by someone.

There are not only the silver coins and hairpins she accumulated when she was a child, but also various daily necessities, which are complete, thoughtful, and exquisite.Fill the first five carts to the brim.

No matter what, she will face Xintiandi after all.

***

The cold wind howled.

A group of people galloped across the official road and headed straight for the capital.

The people who entered the city were driven away by the officials early and retreated to a distance. Even so, they were still shrouded in dust raised by the horses.

"Who is this person? Could it be that the border is expedited?" An old man said worriedly.

Hundreds of elite cavalry are all wearing armor, and they look like elite soldiers and warriors.

The officer in charge of maintaining order next to him sneered, "The late emperor pacified the world, why is there any rush at the border? This is the arrival of the envoys of the Zhungeer Khanate. I heard that this time their newly appointed King Khan came in person."

After entering the city gate unimpeded, Ce Wangcai reined in his horse, and the hundreds of fine riders behind him slowed down in unison.

A ceremony officer waiting at the gate of the city had already greeted him, and arranged them with various pillars.

Compared with the previous two infiltrations in secret, this time entering the court as the lord of the Junggar Khanate, the momentum is naturally different from the past.

Ride the horse and walk slowly on the empty royal road.Looking at the bustling and prosperous capital, row upon row.A smile appeared on the corner of Ze Wang's lips.

After years of separation, is that haunting figure still the same as before?
