The news of Duanmuchen's madness spread like wildfire in the harem, followed by the sad news of Zhen'er. Everyone thought that he couldn't accept the death of his daughter, and it was only after he was hit. Handed over to Zhen'er, she was directly killed.

Duanmuchen didn't attend Zhen'er's funeral, and I wouldn't let him come. He doesn't have the qualifications, so let him spend his whole life in the Laiyi Palace.

After Zhen'er passed away, a large number of officials came to persuade me and comfort me, saying that the emperor should take care of the dragon's body, and they also tried to persuade me to appoint a new crown prince as soon as possible.In addition, they also began to discuss in private, standing, it seems that I am afraid that I will not be able to withstand the blow, and if I fall ill, what if I fall down without a new crown prince, so what should I do?

How can I be so weak, they are too worrying.

In front of Zhen'er's mourning hall, I stood there. Today is her first seven days. I hope that when she comes back, she can see her father. This is enough.

Normally, when there are concubines in the palace, or the prince has passed away, other concubines come to offer incense, just visit and visit, but Zhen Er, I have been guarding her coffin, how dare those concubines leave early, They all followed and stood there.

The mourning hall, which was supposed to be cold, was overcrowded. Everyone stayed silent and stayed with me.

I was afraid that there would be too many people, and Zhen'er would not dare to come back tonight, so I ordered them all to go back, and I will stay here alone with Zhen'er.

Stay quietly, stay there, looking at Zhen'er's spirit seat, thinking silently in your heart, it's the father's fault, he didn't protect you well.

Originally, everything was under control. I would not be surprised any time Duanmuchen knew the truth about the destruction of the Duanmu clan, and I would guard against him, but I never thought that Duanmuchen would use his own daughter for revenge. .

Take a step back and say, even if Zhen'er boiled that bowl of medicine for me, I wouldn't drink it, but who knows that Zhen'er will try the medicine by herself.

With a creak, the door of the mourning hall was pushed open.Jia Wanru walked slowly to my side, and she stood with me, and after a long time, she murmured: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. You are so sad, Zhen'er will not go safely."

"Well," I replied, still looking forward, looking at Zhen'er's tablet, "I want to accompany Zhen'er on the last journey."

"The concubine will also accompany you."

How caring, always considerate, the person I loved the most in my previous life, Jia Wanru.

Wanfu didn't come to me until it was almost dawn, and reminded me in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it's already midnight, and Princess Zhen'er has left..."

"Well, just go with peace of mind." I nodded and said.

I glanced at the mourning hall again, then turned and left.

Jia Wanru followed me respectfully all the time, and when I walked out of the mourning hall, I stopped and asked, "Concubine Wan, why are you looking for me?"

"The emperor is not feeling well recently, and my concubine went to visit several times, but was blocked out of the door. Now that I see you, my concubine feels at ease." Jia Wanru looked at me affectionately, as if tears would well out of the corner of her eyes the next moment Come.

On the surface, it seems that he has a deep affection for me.If you listen to this kind of insincere words too much, your ears will become cocooned, so I asked casually: "Then it took you several years to see King Rui, isn't it every day that you worry about it?!"

What is the loss of color in Huarong, can be best expressed on Jia Wanru's face, "You..." At this moment, her mind is in a mess.

I gave her a cold look and walked straight forward.

"Your majesty... Your majesty..." Jia Wanru followed me, trying to stop me, "Why did you say this suddenly? My concubine... I don't understand, what is King Rui?"

"You know it well." I sneered and said, "Why pretend to be stupid?"

"Your Majesty!" Jia Wanru would not accept her fate so quickly, she knelt down in front of me, shook her head, and defended herself, "Your Majesty, how did you get involved with King Rui?! If you have anything to say, just say it clearly, Even if you die, the concubine must die knowingly!"

"It's a good one to die clearly." Jia Wanru pretended too much, and the pitiful look of being wronged by others really made people feel distressed, "Touch your conscience and tell me, is it the morning you provoked me?" Concubine? Let Concubine Chen poison me?"

"What?" Jia Wanru shook her head quickly, denying it categorically, "No, this concubine didn't do that! Someone must be spreading rumors!"

"But you don't know, I wasn't poisoned to death, it was Zhen'er who died!"

The cause of Zhen'er's death was announced to the outside world as a sudden death. No one knew that she was poisoned. When Jia Wanru heard this, she was also greatly astonished, but what does it have to do with her? "Your majesty, this concubine knows that you love Princess Zhen'er and wants to find the real culprit as soon as possible, but... but the concubine is not the real culprit. You have wronged this concubine!"

"Concubine Chen told me personally that you told him about the destruction of the Duanmu clan and gave him a pack of poison."

"No! Concubine Chen, he is framing! He is framing! No concubine! Your Majesty, please trust this concubine!" Jia Wanru's mind was spinning fast, she had to get rid of the crime for herself.

"As long as I die, the biggest beneficiaries will be your Concubine Wan and the Crown Prince." I snorted coldly and said with a smile, "There is nothing to justify."

"Yes! Concubine Chen is crazy, how can you believe what a lunatic says?! Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please think about it for yourself," Jia Wanru analyzed and said to me: "At this juncture, the crown prince's position is at stake. I am her concubine mother. , if something unexpected happens to you, the concubine and the crown prince are the first to be suspected, how dare the concubine do something that harms you?!"

What Jia Wanru said is right, this is what I suspect, but Duanmuchen doesn't need to lie to me, I would rather believe that Jia Wanru is in a hurry, as long as I die, even if I am suspected by everyone, Jia Wanru will have the support of King Rui behind me, it will be the same The prince can succeed.

It's a pity that King Rui has already been captured by me, but Jia Wanru is still kept in the dark.

"Your Majesty! Please trust me, I really love you!"

Hearing this sentence, there was no wave in my heart. When I first met Jia Wanru, she said she loved me, and I was overjoyed. When I was reborn, she said she loved me, and I despised him. But now , I feel nothing at all.It is said that the opposite of love is not hate, but indifference from the heart, so it is true.

"Concubine Wan, let me introduce you to an acquaintance, the one you love the most."

Jia Wanru looked at me tremblingly, her eyes were terrified, as if she was looking at a stranger who threatened her.

"emperor……"

"Let's go to Chenghuan Palace." They were in Chenghuan Palace in the previous life, hugging each other and appearing in front of me, "The guest is waiting in Chenghuan Palace."

Without any explanation, Jia Wanru, surrounded by several eunuchs, followed me towards Chenghuan Palace.

The Chenghuan Hall was empty, with only a few internal eunuchs guarding it, as well as Prince Li Yi who had been waiting there for a long time, and Prime Minister Jia Fan who was ill.

"Father Emperor..." Li Yi saw me, his eyes shone with a dazzling light. I sent someone to call him yesterday. Wouldn't he think that I still have hope for him?

"Cough cough cough... old minister... old minister sees the emperor..." Jia Fan coughed violently without saying a few words.

"Father..." Jia Wanru stepped forward quickly and supported the old man.

"The emperor asked the old minister to come, cough cough..., what is the so-called matter?" Jia Fan's face was pale and blue, his lips were chapped, and he was afraid that if he didn't take a good rest, he would die soon, but his resignation memorial was still being suppressed by me. .

"Prime Minister Jia, do you know your daughter?" I asked first.

Jia Fan froze for a moment, not understanding the meaning of what I said.

I don't know when Jia Wanru in the previous life let Jia Fan know about King Rui's existence, and persuaded Jia Fan to help King Rui rebel, so the only thing I can do in this life is to prevent Jia Wanru from showing off against Jia Fan.Up until now, Jia Fan didn't know anything, and he wholeheartedly assisted me and strengthened the power of his Jia family.

"Your daughter and King Rui are in love with each other, don't you know?" I questioned.

"Your Majesty! Please be careful with your words!" Even though Jia Fan is a courtier, he is my elder after all in age, so he naturally has his own backbone. If you just want to abolish the crown prince, there are a lot of things you can impeach, why bother to attack the concubine Wan, how important is fame to a woman!"

"Father emperor! Father emperor! How can you say that about mother and concubine?!" Li Yi was unwilling when he heard the words, and argued with me: "Empress Zhou also used this matter to frame mother and concubine, and you were seen through by you at that time Well, now how do you..."

"At that time, I dug a trap for Zhou Ling to jump into. If I want to abolish the empress, I have to make some excuses, don't I?" I followed Li Yi's words and explained the matter clearly.

"I know about King Rui from the beginning to the end, and Yi'er," I said, looking up at Li Yi, and said in an unprecedented indifferent tone: "You are not my son, but King Rui's..."

"Father Emperor..." Li Yi couldn't accept this fact at all. He smiled reluctantly, trembling, and cried: "You lied to Erchen, you lied to Erchen, right? You love Erchen so much, why don't you Li Erchen is the crown prince, how could..."

"Your Majesty, this old minister doesn't believe that his daughter would do such a disgraceful thing," Jia Fan said to me hysterically, "This old minister... uses..."

"What else can you use as a guarantee?" I seemed to have heard a big joke, and asked him sarcastically: "I have just made a guarantee for the crown prince, and then I was dragged into the water. I am afraid that if you make another guarantee, you will lose your life! "

"Your Majesty!" Jia Wanru couldn't bear to see her elderly father being involved again, so she hurriedly took a step forward and stood in front of Jia Fan, "Father has worked hard to assist you for many years, and he has worked hard even if he has no credit. Please forgive him, Your Majesty." .”

spare him?Just because he has not been bribed by King Rui in this life, and he only thinks about me, should I spare him?Does he feel wronged?feel outraged?Think I shouldn't do this?In the previous life, without my knowledge, when he turned against King Rui and encouraged me to become a foolish king and eradicate dissidents, should I suffer?
