"Why are you not spending time with Aning in the Prince Consort's Mansion at this time? Why did you come to me?" Nian Wanniang said coldly to Gu Qingtang, "I still think the maids in my Taiwei Mansion are pretty, so I want to take one back to have **** with me." Concubine? ”
Gu Qingtang smiled lightly and said, "What Sister Wan Niang said is terrible. How can I be that kind of person?" After saying that, she stood up and said seriously, "I came here today to invite Sister Wan Niang. Help me with something."
"Help you take the blame?"
"You can't stand this."
After Gu Qingtang finished speaking calmly, he cupped his fists and bowed respectfully to her, "Now that Aning knows that I have left the house, he will definitely go to the imperial city to beg His Majesty. I just want to ask Sister Wan Niang to help me stop her. Now Don’t let her negotiate with His Majesty face to face.”
"It's really ridiculous. She is the princess, how can I stop her?"
"As long as you think about it, there is nothing you can't do."
"You..."
"Sister Wan Niang has always been smart, and she must be able to do many things better than me." Gu Qingtang said with a smile, and bowed to her again, "I believe you will protect her well these days."
Nian Wanniang was stunned, "Are you entrusting me with your trust?"
Gu Qingtang shook his head and smiled, "The Taiwei Mansion must not be involved, lest His Majesty take advantage of it. For the sake of your reputation, sister Wanniang, you must pretend that nothing happened and keep the Taiwei Mansion from this matter. The first half of the relationship."
Nian Wanniang was distraught when she heard this, "What about you? If you take the blame, you will probably die. If the Taiwei Mansion doesn't take action, how can you survive? If something happens to you, what will An Ning... An Ning do? ”
Gu Qingtang stretched out and said: "Anyway, my life is just a cheap one. If I have something, Sister Wan Niang might be a little happier, right?"
Nian Wanniang heard the sting in her words, "What do you mean by that?"
"I ran on the wrong mountain road today, does it have something to do with you?" Gu Qingtang got straight to the point, "If sister Wanniang spends less of her thoughts on me and more on Aning, I believe she will be happier. Some.”
Nian Wanniang looked at Gu Qingtang quietly, "How much do you know?"
"It's not absurd to love someone. Maybe I'll feel more at ease if you protect her." Gu Qingtang said something like this, and looked at the sky, "It's not too late now, so I It’s time to enter the palace.”
"Gu Qingtang..."
"Let me be a hero for once, okay?"
Gu Qingtang turned around and smiled, the pear swirled, it turned out to be so beautiful.
Nian Wanniang said solemnly: "You can't be a hero alone. I won't lose to you."
"Then...Qingtang will be waiting quietly in Tianlao for the good news of Sister Wan Niang." Gu Qingtang bowed his hands again, turned around and walked away gradually.
Nian Wanniang had to admit that Gu Qingtang's thoughts were indeed powerful. Today, she retreated in order to advance. Although she was entrusting Yin Ning, it was more like tempting Nian Wanniang to say the last words step by step.
The person who died was the Prince of Dache. Even if he was at fault in the first place, there is no way to avoid paying a life for a life. If Nian Taiwei took action in the open, it would indeed be a big mistake. If Nian Wanniang ignored her reputation and told the story that she was almost insulted, Nian Taiwei would indeed have sufficient reasons to exonerate Gu Qingtang. However, Nian Wanniang was still unwilling to sacrifice her reputation to save a person. Her hated "love rival".
But if Nian Wanniang doesn't come forward, then Yin Ning will definitely blame her, and the deadlock that was finally resolved will return to the beginning, even worse than before.
What Gu Qingtang said just now is right. The focus should not be on getting rid of Gu Qingtang, but on Yin Ning. If she can let Yin Ning know that she saved Gu Qingtang without sacrificing her reputation, then the gap between her and Yin Ning will disappear even more, and maybe she still has a chance to get to the end with Yin Ning.
After all, life has just begun. How long Gu Qingtang can live in the future depends partly on God, but the other half is in her hands.
Yin Ning has always been simple, so how could she doubt that a person who once saved Gu Qingtang would set up a trap for Gu Qingtang in the future? In other words, every time Gu Qingtang gets involved in a situation, Nian Wanniang will have an opportunity to get closer to Yin Ning and let Yin Ning know her importance.
So, Gu Qingtang should be saved. As for how to save him, let her think about it carefully.
When Gu Qingtang walked out of the Taiwei Mansion, he looked up at the cloudless sky and thought to himself: "An Ning, I will not let him have any chance to blackmail you."
As long as the little princess does not go to the palace to intercede for the consort and shows that she does not care about the life or death of the consort, and the eldest prince violated the little princess first, Yin Changan has no reason to force the little princess after killing Gu Qingtang. Marrying far away is a big deal, and there is no way to coerce the little princess into marrying far away.
Once the eldest prince dies, Yin Chang'an's plans for marriage will probably be shelved for a few years. These few years will also be precious time for Gu Qingtang to plan a career.
This situation is already in chaos, and the more chaotic it is, the better.
As a result, the incident of the prince consort Gu Qingtang killing the prince in a rage became the most explosive incident in the capital of Daling that day. Within a moment, it spread throughout the streets and no one knew about it.
After Gu Qingtang entered the palace to plead guilty, he was immediately thrown into prison by the angry and frightened Emperor Yin Changan.
That night, Taiwei Nian hurriedly summoned hundreds of officials to enter the palace and forced the emperor Yin Chang'an to enter the palace. The ambassador from the carriage also carried the unrecognizable body of the eldest prince into the palace, clamoring for Yin Chang'an to give an explanation to the carriage. .
"Bring the guilty minister Gu Qingtang here!" Yin Changan rubbed his temples, drank, then hesitantly glanced at the displeased Captain Nian, and said in a low voice, "Bring Gu Shaofu Bring it up."
Lieutenant Nian smiled coldly, turned around, and watched worriedly as the palace guards escorted Gu Qingtang in.
The official uniforms during the day had turned into prison uniforms. The moment Gu Qingtang stepped into the main hall, he felt very at ease because there was no figure of the little princess in the main hall. That was the best thing about this calamity. start.
"Young Master Gu!" Yin Changan said the name in a trembling voice with a livid face, "Do you know that you have caused a big trouble!"
Gu Qingtang knelt down in front of the emperor on the dragon throne calmly, cupped his fists and said, "I'm a humble minister, please see your majesty."
"Qingtang, get up quickly. My foster father is here for this, so you don't have to..." Taiwei Nian glared at Yin Chang'an coldly, and then came to help Gu Qingtang up.
Gu Qingtang quickly pushed Taiwei Nian's hand and said with a smile: "Father, don't worry about Qingtang. Qingtang is responsible for this matter, and Qingtang should take full responsibility for it! You must not... implicate the righteousness Father."
After hearing the meaning of Gu Qingtang's words, Nian Taiwei could only sigh in a low voice and glanced coldly at the sad and angry faces of Dache Imperial Master Ye Na and the third prince Anba, "This matter is related to I, the princess of Daling, am honorable, and the eldest prince was the first to be rude. After all, it is the fault of Dache. What else do you want from me, Daling?”
Anba is the biggest beneficiary of this matter. He naturally understands that Taiwei Nian's words are for him to mediate and make this matter trivial and hastily resolve it.
However, the deceased was his biological brother after all, and some scenes still had to be acted out. "Even if Brother Wang did something wrong first, he did not deserve to be killed like this. Gu Qingtang, you are too cruel!"
Gu Qingtang glanced at Anba lightly, and slowly moved his eyes to Ye Na, "I did stab the eldest prince, but I will never admit that the other wounds on his body were caused by me." After a pause, she seemed to warn Ye Na, "Looking at the world, is there any man who can see his wife being humiliated and remain indifferent? The little princess is my wife. The people in the capital today can testify that the eldest prince kidnapped my wife out of the city in broad daylight. Is it wrong for me to stab him in a fit of rage if he behaves badly? Master, do you think so?"
Ye Na had no idea that the secret guards sent out would send Yin Ning to the eldest prince Antu, which would cause the following incidents. Although the death of the eldest prince was indeed a mistake, if she didn't ask for some explanation, she might not be able to completely deal with the aftermath even if she returned to the cart.
"I only know that it is only right to kill someone to pay for life." Ye Na replied without any confidence, "The eldest prince did die in your hands!"
Gu Qingtang smiled bitterly and said: "Master Imperial Master, I didn't say that I killed the eldest prince. I only admitted that I stabbed him from beginning to end." As she said that, she suddenly shook her head, "Someone must have done it on purpose. After I rescued the little princess, he killed the eldest prince to death, and then blamed me. The purpose was to sow discord between the two countries. His heart is so cruel!"
"Strong words!" Anba shouted pretendingly.
Gu Qingtang said seriously: "The eldest prince is the envoy of the carriage, what is his status? How could I be ignorant? Even if I am extremely angry, I will only dare to stab him once, but it will never be fatal. You keep saying it is me He killed the eldest prince, I dare to ask, is there anyone who can bear witness?"
"..."
Nian Taiwei took advantage of the situation and said: "Yes, what Qingtang said is absolutely true!" As he said that, his sharp eyes stared at Yin Chang'an, "Your Majesty, why don't you quickly issue an order to Tingwei to investigate the case thoroughly? ? ”
Yin Changan clenched his fists tightly and stammered: "Nian Taiwei...what Taiwei said is extremely...accurate..."
Tingwei Lord Li Kun immediately bowed and said, "My lord, take your orders."
Lieutenant Nian snorted coldly and helped Gu Qingtang up with his own hands, "Since there are so many doubts about this matter, Qingtang does not need to be imprisoned in the sky prison..."
"Lieutenant Nian...wait a moment...according to law...Gu Shaofu cannot leave the prison..." Yin Changan said in a low voice.
"What if I want your Majesty to be lenient?" Taiwei Nian asked with a livid face.
Yin Changan took a breath and said: "Lieutenant Nian...there are some things...if they are too much...a historian will write them down..."
"Your Majesty has indeed made great progress, and you came to threaten me today?"
"Father, those who are pure will be pure themselves. Qingtang admits that he did not harm the eldest prince. Your Majesty will definitely restore my innocence." Gu Qingtang shook his head and looked at Yin Changan, "Your Majesty, do you think so? ?"
"Young Master Gu should know better...here comes someone...take Mr. Gu back to Tianlao." After Yin Changan ordered, he explained to Lieutenant Nian, "I...will give Lieutenant a Satisfactory answer."
Gu Qingtang nodded and smiled, and whispered as he passed Taiwei Nian, "Father should be careful, lest someone secretly use this matter to slander Taiwei's house, so Qingtang accepted his good intentions."
Nian Taiwei felt very relieved. He did not expect that Gu Qingtang would be so considerate of the Taiwei Mansion. He also gave Gu Qingtang a promise, "Don't worry, Qingtang, your adoptive father will not sit back and watch you being bullied."
"Thank you, foster father."
