Spring Banquet Chapter 55: Weichen welcomes His Royal Highness
lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Spring Festival Banquet!
Li Huaiyu detoured to Mingshan Palace by taking a small path from his memory.
The moonlight is silent, giving this already deserted place a more gloomy layer. She stepped on the horizontal withered grass on the ground and gently opened the door of the inner palace.
Emperors of the past dynasties will have a secret room to store important objects and documents. Mingshan Palace is the secret room of Emperor Xiao.
When my father was dying, he told her that when Huai Lin was fifteen years old and could be alone, she could come here to find what he left behind.
On February 20 of the eighth year of Daxing, Li Huailin turned fifteen years old, and she came here as promised, opening the organs expectantly, thinking that the emperor must have left them some treasure.
Unfortunately, Mingshan Palace has no treasures, and some are just secrets that she can't afford.
At that time, Li Huaiyu couldn't accept it. After reading it, he went back to Feiyun Palace in a daze, forgetting to take the thing away or destroy it. Later, when Sima Xu died, she was imprisoned and never had the opportunity to come here again.
Now with a different look, standing in front of the bookshelf in this side hall again, Huaiyu thought, when this is done, she can be a Bai Zhuji with complete peace of mind.
"Crack!" The mechanism on the bookshelf was twisted with a soft sound, and then the entire wall was cut off in the middle and moved back to both sides.
Thinking of Jiang Xuanjin who was still waiting on the rockery, she curled her lips with jade, and smiled as she walked in. She had already figured out how she would tease this drunk person while she waited.
However, after looking up into the secret room, Huaiyu's smile was frozen on his face.
With candles burning in the secret room, Liu Yunlie, wearing a vine-green splendid robe, is standing in front of the book table ten steps away from her. It was a great shock.
My heart sank, and a coolness climbed up from his ankles, freezing Li Huaiyu's whole body to the ground, almost unsteady on his feet.
"Why are you here?!"
Subconsciously yelling out this sentence, Huaiyu felt that it was wrong, and hurriedly turned around to run.
"Stop!" Liu Yunlie came forward and grabbed her wrist, reacted very quickly to press the next mechanism, and closed the door of the secret room again.
The last wind that slipped in blew the candles on the table to and fro.
"Who are you?!" He screamed, his hands were so strong, his voice was a little trembling, and he was obviously shocked.
Huaiyu was stiff, looked at the person in front of him without blinking, and said for a while: "Master Liu didn't even recognize me?"
How could he not recognize it? Every time he saw her, he would feel uncomfortable. He thought it was a sequelae from the last fight, but now it doesn't seem to be the case.
"Bai Zhuji..." Liu Yunlie murmured and repeated her name, trying to suppress her struggle.
He checked Bai Zhuji. Before this man recovered his sanity, he had no friendship with anyone outside the house. Suddenly he knew Lu Jingxing and he was already very strange, and he actually appeared here right now.
Except for him and your majesty, only the princess knows.
Li Huaiyu felt that his heart was about to jump out of his throat. He twisted his wrist to break away from him, but he was not as strong as him, so he could only lean against the wall and wait for the opportunity.
She had fought him, and she knew in her heart that if she really let him go to fight with her hands and feet, Bai Zhuji would definitely not be an opponent.
Dispelling the killing intent in his heart, Li Huaiyu rolled his eyes and gave up the struggle: "Master Liu, what are you doing?"
"Want to pretend to be garlic?" Liu Yunlie returned to his senses, pressing her elbow against her throat and pressing her against the wall with a stern look in her eyes. , And suddenly learned martial arts. Lu Jingxing gave you a dowry, Xu Xian, Han Xiao, and Yun Lanqing gave you a maiden seat. Now you are here again."
"His Royal Highness, the ministers are not far away to welcome you."
Li Huaiyu was shocked, don't open his eyes and said: "What are you talking about? I don't understand."
Gradually increasing the strength in his hands, Liu Yunlie sneered: "If you don't understand it, you came here by yourself today. Since you like Mingshan Palace so much, you might as well sleep here."
The neck was too cold to breathe, Huaiyu frowned in pain: "Wait...wait! You want me to die, let me know it anyway!"
After a pause, Liu Yunlie glanced at her and slightly let go of her hand.
"I really don't know what your majesty." At the opportunity, Huaiyu hurriedly said, "I just walked here at will..."
"Then opened the mechanism here?" Crudely interrupting her lie, Liu Yunlie's hand was pressed tightly again, "If you just want to say this, then the minister will send it to your Highness."
This doesn't work.
Liu Yunlie really planned to kill her, and he didn't show any mercy.
Li Huaiyu panicked, and while still vocalizing in his throat, he shouted with difficulty: "Liu...Liu Yan!"
Hearing his name, Liu Yunlie sneered: "His Royal Highness is finally willing to admit it?"
Don't admit it when you die? She is not stupid! Huaiyu nodded repeatedly, beckoning him to let her go first.
With a half-inch loosen his hand, Liu Yunlie's eyes were sharp and authentic: "So the weird behavior of Jun Ziyang for so long is that you are bewitching in secret!"
Taking a quick breath, Li Huaiyu looked up at him: "Who is Monarch Ziyang? Can I confuse him? He is just doing what he thinks is right."
"Heh." Liu Yunlie shook his head, "His Royal Highness is humble. Without your hard work, how could he find Qi Han so quickly."
The progress of Jiang Xuanjin's overturning the case happened to be stuck with Qi Han, and Li Huaiyu almost felt that Qi Han was the murderer behind the scenes. But now when she heard Liu Yunlie's words, she understood.
He is the one who hides the deepest.
She was tight, Huaiyu lowered her eyes, and whispered weakly: "Anyway, I have fallen into your hands. Why sit down and talk?"
"Don't dare." Liu Yunlie's eyes were deep with his hand still between her throat, "The princess has learned a lot about the methods of the minister. If you want to talk, just talk like that."
Don't give me a chance? Huaiyu's heart sank hard.
Liu Yunlie seems to have suspected her early in the morning, so now knowing the truth is more like recalling and checking what he knows than shocking, and one by one, she is verifying her identity.
After a while, the eyes that fell on her face were no longer panic, and people calmed down a lot.
Seeing that he seemed to have nothing to ask, Li Huaiyu asked him: "Why do you know this place?"
When the father was dying, she and Huai Lin were the only ones by her side, and even Jiang Xuanjin was standing outside the hall. It stands to reason that no one else would know this, not to mention Liu Yunlie was a foreign minister.
The person in front of him seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "His Royal Highness already has the answer in his heart, so why bother to ask the Weichen?"
Except for her, the only people who know here are...
Huai Lin.
Frowning deeply, Li Huaiyu shook his head: "It is impossible that he told you."
Let’s not say that Huailin was only seven years old when his father died. Even if he remembered, there was no reason to tell Liu Yunlie.
This person is telling her.
"Since your Royal Highness doesn't believe it, there is nothing we can do about it." Liu Yunlie half-closed his eyes, "The Minister also has questions to ask Your Royal Highness."
"You ask." Li Huaiyu was very sincere in earning more time to live: "I will answer what you ask!"
"How did you survive?" This is what Liu Yunlie wants to know most.
People can’t come back from death. This is a word passed down from our ancestors, but why is the person in front of him clearly dead, but can stand here and talk to him again through someone else’s body?
With drooping eyelids, Huaiyu said: "You won't believe this if I say it."
"Let's talk."
The usual lie can't pass Liu Yunlie's ears, Huaiyu thought about it seriously, and suddenly got an idea.
"I got a treasure before I was alive, which can keep people's souls and bring people back to life." She lowered her voice, and she said, "It's all thanks to that treasure that I have a chance to come back."
Treasure? Liu Yunlie looked at her coldly: "Want to fool me?"
"No, no!" Li Huaiyu stomped, "I really didn't lie to you! Do you remember when Daxing visited the Northern Wei Dynasty in the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the fourth year of Daxing? Among the treasures offered by Baihuajun was a jade pendant with an odd shape! I didn't know at the time. Use, but after I die, the soul will be absorbed by it, and then Miss Bai Si drowns and I am on her body."
Anyway, no one else has died, who can tell the truth from what she said?
The living facts are in front of him, and Liu Yunlie can believe even if he doesn't believe it, a strange light flashes in his eyes.
"Where is the jade pendant now?"
People are afraid of death, and the more powerful people are, the more fearful they are. For the superiors, longevity and resurrection are precious treasures that are hard to find.
Huaiyu saw the vitality and finally smiled: "My lord, my life is now in your hands. You really killed me. I have to rely on that baby to live again. How can I tell you its whereabouts? ?"
Live once, can you live again? If you get that thing, won't you never die?
Liu Yunlie frowned, half-closed his eyes, as if thinking about something.
"Actually, I live this time, but I just want to clean up my grievances for myself." Huaiyu sighed, "Who do you think I killed? Those who went to jail and convicted, which one has not received retribution? You don’t have to kill me. When the case is turned over, I will stay by Jiang Xuanjin's side and won’t hinder you any more."
"Do you still want to go back to him?" Liu Yunlie sneered, "Tell him to know who you are, do you think you can live?"
His greatest enemy in the past, resurrected his life and became his wife, calculating, using, and loving him in order to reverse the case for himself.
If Jiang Xuanjin knew about this...
His eyes moved slightly, and he suddenly let go of her.
"Cough, cough, cough!" The pressure on her neck was gone, and Huaiyu coughed when she bent over.
"Make a deal." Liu Yunlie said, "I will let you go, and you will give me the treasure."
Secretly hooked his lips, Huaiyu said: "My lord is talking about it?"
"The agency is right next to you. You can open the door and go out now." Liu Yunlie said, "But if I can't find the jade pendant, I will definitely expose your identity and let you be given another poison. Wine."
How is it possible? Once she went out, the old case was reversed and the charges were eliminated. Huailin knew her identity, and it was too late to be happy. How could he still give poisonous wine?
Secretly hooked his lips, Li Huaiyu stood up straight and said: "I will leave here first, and when it's safe, I will send the jade pendant to the adult."
Liu Yunlie stood with his hand in his hand, watching her touch the mechanism on the wall, and said in a meaningful way: "Your life is hard to come by, your Highness can cherish it, so don't play any more moths."
"Don't worry, my lord." The wall cracked, and the clear wind blew in from outside. Huaiyu took a deep breath and walked out calmly carrying her skirt.
Mingshan Palace is still very quiet, but the banquet in the Joy Palace in the distance seems to have scattered, and the previous lively sound has disappeared.
The hands trembled a little, and the footsteps were a little vain. Li Huaiyu didn't dare to look back at all. As he walked faster and faster, he rushed desperately as soon as he left Mingshan Palace.
It was like a nightmare. No, she never dreamed that she would see Liu Yunlie in the secret room! What should we do now? Knowing her identity, Liu Yunlie could tell Jiang Xuanjin at any time that everything would be over.
He released her today just because he wanted the treasure. What about after the treasure is given to him? Her secret is in his hands, and he is the one who has always wanted her to die. What the outcome will be is self-evident.
Can't let Liu Yunlie live.
Aware of this, her mind turned quickly.
Go back to Mingshan Palace along the palace road, Huaiyu has a good look, and wants to pick up Jiang Xuanjin who is waiting for her on the rockery.
However, she seemed to have been delayed for too long, the palace banquet was over, and there was no one on the rockery.
I felt a little flustered, she stopped the people passing by and asked, "Did you see Mr. Ziyang?"
Coincidentally, this person turned around and it was Yun Lanqing. He glanced at her in surprise: "Mrs. Jun? You have been waiting for you for a long time, but he has been here and refused to leave. , But he was very drunk, and several Jiang lords took him back to the mansion."
When she saw him, Huaiyu's eyes were very complicated, she squeezed her fist and opened her mouth to say something, then swallowed back.
Looking at her expression, Yun Lanqing's eyes were slightly deep: "I always have a question to ask Madam."
"How did Madam know that there is a problem with the Luohua River dyke?"
He was upset, Huaiyu didn't even have the strength to go around with him, and said with a blank face: "Do you also suspect that I am Danyang?"
Such a direct sentence made Yun Lanqing dumbfounded.
"I don't have time to talk to you too much now." Huaiyu looked down, her voice trembling, "Lan Qing, please tell Lu Jingxing for me, so that Jiwu and the others are ready, and I have someone to kill. "
I have someone to kill.
This rampant and arrogant tone instantly caused Yun Lanqing to return to the Feiyun Palace six months ago, and suddenly saw the person in the palace costume but not sitting in the slightest, and said to them with his legs folded:
"I have come to work, adults, catch a moth, think of a way to kill him."
……
"His Royal Highness?" Yun Lanqing tentatively called out the person in front of him, with surprise and doubt in his eyes.
Huaiyu nodded, his legs softened and squatted on the ground: "You do as I... do as I say."
Han Xiao at the back was looking for people everywhere. He walked over and saw his back and shouted carelessly: "Lanqing, I have been looking for you for a long time..."
As soon as he finished speaking, I saw Bai Zhuji hidden by his back.
"Hey, why is Madam Jun also here?" Han Xiao was surprised, "The Jiang family is looking for you everywhere."
Huaiyu looked at him helplessly, no longer had the strength to explain, shook his head and stood up on his knees. Just about to turn around and walk, he saw Liu Yunlie coming back.
After breathing, she stopped opening her eyes and froze in place, not daring to move at all.
"What's the matter?" Han Xiao didn't know anything, looked at her curiously and said, "Mrs. Jun is also drunk? His face is so ugly."
Liu Yunlie came over step by step, with a smile on his face. He stood not far away and said, "How many adults are going to leave?"
Yun Lanqing sensed Li Huaiyu's anxiety, and stepped forward to protect her behind her, bowing her hands in return: "The palace banquet is over."
"Way slowly, everyone." Liu Yunlie raised his eyes, looked at the person behind Yun Lanqing, and chuckled, "Mrs. Jun also walk slowly."
After finishing speaking, I will continue to the palace of joy with my negative hand.
Han Xiao frowned and looked at his back, and muttered: "Why is this person so yin and yang today?"
Yun Lanqing turned around, looked at Huaiyu and asked, "Is something wrong?"
Huaiyu shook his head and said softly: "Excuse me, can you give me a ride?"
"Okay." Yun Lanqing agreed without thinking about it.
Han Xiao stunned: "This... Lanqing, are you okay?"
Isn't he always nosy?
He pulled him over, Yun Lanqing said: "When I have time, I will explain to you, first send the palace...First send Mrs. Jun back to Jiang Mansion."
Looking at his solemn expression, Han Xiao also knew that there was a reason for the matter, and hurriedly followed Mrs. Jun with him, without asking more questions.
Back to Moju, Huaiyu went to Qingsi first, and whispered: "I need your help."
Looking at her pale face, Qing Si was startled, and she looked up and down around her, and she was relieved when she saw that there was nothing hurt, and nodded to her.
Go to the makeup box and find a piece of jade at random, Huaiyu said: "I was found out by Liu Yunlie, and he must be killed right now. You take this to Lu Jingxing, and he will help you arrange manpower."
The expression in Qingsi's eyes became cold when she heard the first half of the sentence, and when she heard the task at the end, she got up and put the jade pendant into her arms.
"Be careful." Huaiyu urged.
"You'd better go and see your lord first." Qingsi curtsed her knees, leaving such a sentence when she left.
What happened to Jiang Xuanjin? Huaiyu settled down and left the wing to the main building.
It was quiet in the main building. Chengxu and Yufeng both stood outside the door and did not dare to enter. When they saw her coming, the two immediately pushed the door open, beckoning her to enter quickly.
Thinking that it would be difficult for that person to cope after being drunk, Huaiyu is ready to put him to sleep.
However, when he entered the door and raised his eyes, the person sitting in the room had clear eyes, and he was sober up.
"Where have you been?" he asked coldly.
With a heartbeat, Li Huaiyu hurriedly greeted him and sat in front of him and said: "I'm lost. I wanted to pour tea for you, but when I walked, I lost my way, or Master Yun and Master Han ran into me. Sent me back."
Dark eyes staring at her motionlessly, Jiang Xuanjin said: "You lied to me again."
She was tight, Huaiyu thought he had found something, and the blood on her lips disappeared completely.
However, what this person said next was: "I waited for you for half an hour at the rockery. If you get lost, you can forget it?"
Stunned for a moment, Huaiyu laughed: "You said this?"
"Do you have anything else to lie to me?" Jiang Xuanjin raised her eyebrows.
"No no!" Huaiyu quickly took his hand and said softly, "How could I lie to you? It's not my intention to get lost. Don't be angry, okay?"
Jiang Xuanjin was very upset, with a gloomy face, just looking at her like that.
I have just experienced a frightening escape, and seeing him now, Huaiyu feels a bit sore in his nose. When he flutters forward, he hugs his waist, hoarsely saying: "Don't be angry..."
It sounds like crying.
Jiang Xuanjin was startled and felt that her body was trembling slightly, and the anger in her heart disappeared. She stretched out her hand to pat her back and said: "The bully, did you cry first?"
"I didn't bully you." Huaiyu choked.
"..." Holding her shoulders and raising her head, Jiang Xuanjin frowned and looked at her red eyes, "What happened?"
Huaiyu shook his head, hooked his hand to his neck, and hugged him tightly.
"Shall we go out in Beijing to play for a while?" she asked in a low voice.
Jiang Xuanjin thought for a while, and said: "Qi Han will return to Beijing tomorrow, I will take him to confront his Majesty. When the old case of Sima Xu is closed, I will ask Xiu to take you out for a walk."
Huaiyu shook his head: "I want to leave immediately."
She has a bad feeling in her heart, if she can take Jiang Xuanjin out of Kyoto...
"No," he said, "I am the case chief and cannot leave until the case is closed."
Tears came up, and Huaiyu looked at him blankly.
"Don't be capricious." Jiang Xuanjin stretched out her hand and wiped her tears, "I have something I must do."
What he has to do is naturally much more important than her small temper. Li Huaiyu nodded her head obediently, but the tears kept falling.
"Okay." He hugged her, changed her bedding and unknotted her hair, and put her to sit on the bed.
Huaiyu grabbed the quilt under her and looked at him, opening her mouth to ask something to make her feel at ease, but she was afraid of making him suspicious, so she fell silent.
After the light went out, as soon as Jiang Xuanjin lay on the bed, the person next to her was pressed up.
"Jiang Jie." She whispered, "I really like you."
Slightly taken aback, he was a little uncomfortable not to start: "What do you say about this suddenly?"
"I'm afraid you don't know, so I must tell you." Apricot eyes sparkled in the darkness, Huaiyu lowered his head against his forehead, and said seriously, "I want to give you Have a baby."
The hand on her waist suddenly tightened, and when the person under her moved, he turned over and pressed her back against the pillow.
He stretched out his hand and rubbed the outline of his face, Huaiyu grinned: "You look so beautiful, I want to peel you all the sweetest oranges in the world."
I used to say that this sentence was to tease him, just to see his face flushed with anger. But right now, she said this sentence sincerely. If this catastrophe can escape, she will definitely not lie to him again, she must... peel him big and sweet oranges.
Jiang Xuanjin only regarded her as a greasy tongue. With a light hum, she lowered her head and bit her mouth, licked the tip of her tongue lightly, and said annoyed: "The sweetest orange has already been eaten by you."
Otherwise why is she so sweet?
Huaiyu laughed, hooked his waist and wrapped it around.
In the good middle of August, it rained unexpectedly in the middle of the night, and the patter of rain was blown into the main building by the wind, dampening the clothes hanging on the screen.
The bare skin felt Qiu Yu's fresh air, Huaiyu pulled the quilt together and shivered gently.
