Chapter 127
As soon as the bronze medal landed, the young man patted his horse and jumped off, took a few strides, and jumped onto the execution platform before the beheading soldiers rushed over.He picked up the fallen bronze medal while running, and then stood in front of the supervisor, holding the bronze medal tightly and raising his arms to show, loudly: "The head of the personal guard in front of Princess Fukang's palace, come to deliver the emperor's oral order!" His face was solemn and haughty, and he had the confidence to convey the fate of the heavenly family: "The emperor ordered to keep people under the sword! Put Su Ying in prison, and the case will be retried immediately!" After speaking, he tied the bronze medal back to his waist, He turned around and mounted his horse, and ran back to the palace to return to his command.The soldiers who wanted to arrest the troublemakers were confused for a while, and then got the order from the prison officer to escort Su Ying back to the prison car, and return the same way after a while.
The executioner, who had sprained his back, was limped off the platform.Su Qing bent down and knelt on the spot, unable to move.The body is already stiff.Finally, the pulse of the heart was bulging for death, the teeth were clenched, and the knife that broke the neck did not wait.In one breath, he walked back from the gate of ghosts, and he couldn't find the brave decision he had been holding on all along.Tears jumped out of the eyes, and fell drop by drop into the dust on the hardwood of the execution platform, blurring his thoughts, leaving only the instinct to look back.
Komon...
Liang Jing'an, who was crying into tears, shook Cai Xiaowen's arm, jumping for joy, Ruo Kuang shouted: "The emperor ordered! The emperor woke up Xiaowen! It must be Yanting her...Su Fang is saved!" She cried Crying and laughing, with scars all over his face, he greatly lost his usual dignified and reserved Master Liang.Cai Xiaowen seemed to turn a deaf ear to it, just staring at Su Qing, seeing her head still there, watching her look back and weeping, watching her being arrested again in the prison van, watching her being taken away again... Finally, she could no longer see the distant figure , Cai Xiaowen's eyes dimmed, and he fell to his knees, spraying a mouthful of bright red in front of him...
The captain of the personal guard, Ma Kuai.The one who cried loudly hadn't wiped away his tears and the one who vomited blood hadn't gotten up yet, so he rushed back to the palace and returned to the emperor and princess.The emperor woke up from a serious illness, and was still very weak leaning on the pillow and drinking medicine.Zhao Yanling knelt by the side of the couch, and fed the soup and medicine that the imperial doctors and the third wife had made together into her father's mouth spoon by spoon.Her forehead was inexplicably swollen and red. Although it was not conspicuous, it could still be seen if you looked closely.But at this time, everyone can only see the emperor.The queen mother sat opposite Zhao Yanling, looking at the emperor with concern, just like a mother who loves her son, she couldn't see that another mother's daughter was almost killed by the guillotine because of her will.
"I made the queen mother worry." After swallowing the soup, the emperor said guiltily to the queen mother: "It's my son's fault."
The empress dowager grasped the emperor's hand tremblingly, choked with sobs and said, "My son, your body is the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is your mother's life. Take care of yourself."
"Yes, this time my son must be well taken care of, so that the Queen Mother won't worry about it anymore. You've worked too hard, let Fukang help you go back to the bedroom to rest."
"No, Fukang will stay and take care of you. Fukang, let your father rest earlier." Now that the emperor is awake, the queen mother has nothing serious in mind.There is no need to argue with Zhao Yanling about the trivial matter of one life and two lives of common people, and the emperor can make the decision.
"Yes." Zhao Yanling sent off the queen mother respectfully, turned around and knelt back beside the couch, lay beside the emperor's hand, and wept: "Father emperor..."
"Fukang..." The emperor lightly rubbed Zhao Yanling's forehead hair, and said with a weak smile, "I'm already awake, why are you still crying? Someone came back from outside the palace just now, your folk friend, have you been rescued?"
"Hmm..." Zhao Yanling nodded in the emperor's palm, her worries and heartache for her father melted into tears, and she couldn't stop for a while.Seeing this, the emperor was afraid that she would feel unwell, so he hurriedly asked, "Do you have a headache, should you call the imperial doctor?"
Zhao Yanling quickly shook her head, raising her hand to cover the redness and swelling on her forehead.Before Su Fang was waiting to be executed on the execution platform, she wanted to save her, but she couldn't.There was only a knock in front of the emperor's bed.Finally, after getting up and bending over for the first time, what touched his forehead was not the hard couch, but the soft palm of his father.
"Fukang...what are you doing here?"
The emperor ordered to keep people under the sword.A thousand gold promises, never break your promise.
Although Su Yang is not dead for the time being, the case needs to be investigated and cannot be suspended.After listening to Zhao Yanling's ins and outs, the emperor nodded and said: "It is indeed very strange, it is not possible to convict a crime hastily. Let Ah Li go to Yufeng for investigation?"
Zhao Yanling's heart skipped a beat, and she said without changing her expression, "She's sick and can't go."
"Is Ah Li sick? Is it important?"
"I heard...it's not very important, just rest at home. You see, she can't come to see you today, and I'm afraid she won't be able to go to Yufeng."
"That's it...you remember to call the imperial doctor to Ouyang Mansion to show her."
"Yes." Zhao Yanling took the order, and took over the topic: "How about letting Liang Jing'an go? She is cautious, fair, and has knowledge of the case, so she is a more suitable candidate."
"Liang Jing'an...well, yes." The emperor immediately agreed, and said to Zhao Yanling: "If someone else investigates, it will inevitably involve you. She is your person, so naturally there will be no trap against you. Let her hurry up." Find out the truth and give the Queen Mother an explanation."
Since the emperor has orders, Liang Jing'an will hurry to Yufeng.Su Ying was also interrogated again, but it was only an interrogation without torture, and Mrs. Youqin was entrusted by the Princess Mansion to treat her injuries.Cai Xiaowen naturally followed Liang Jingan back to Yufeng to assist in the investigation.She doesn't know how to ride a horse, so she can only shrink on the horse's back, hugged by Liang Jing'an, and the two of them gallop to Yufeng together, the pain is indescribable.After traveling day and night, I finally arrived at Yufeng.Liang Jing'an was appointed by the emperor, like an imperial envoy, who had the highest authority in the investigation of the case, and immediately took all the eyeliners of the imperial envoys in the capital who were monitoring the people, and all the people she brought took over and took over. Cooperate with the Yufeng County Government to investigate the case.
The Su family is still under house arrest. With Liang Jingan here, the detention is still there, and the treatment is much more relaxed.All the lotus builders had scattered away long ago, only Qin Boshan stayed behind to help Master Cai take care of the Su family.Cai Xiaowen met his father, senior uncle, and senior brother, and they were at ease with each other.With Liang Jing'an again, Cai Xiaowen was able to easily see Mrs. Su, and told her that Su Ying's life was not in danger for the time being, so as to comfort her.As the sun was sinking and the moon was rising, Liang Jing'an did not dare to slack off in the slightest. She searched through the files overnight to understand the details of the investigation, and she didn't care to ask everyone in the Su family.Cai Xiaowen slipped into the Taohui again with the glutinous rice balls, at least to have a peace of mind meal with Mrs. Su.
Cai Xiaowen led the wind chime glutinous rice balls into the kitchen to cook.Mrs. Su sat alone in the shabby room, thinking of her daughter in a trance.The family was undergoing drastic changes, and the life and death of the flesh and blood were on the line. Mrs. Su's face did not show any signs of collapse, but her temples turned white with two handfuls of frost.She was in a trance, suddenly there was a spark in the corner of her eye, and she turned her eyes, slightly surprised.
"Small glutinous rice balls?"
Tang Yuan stood at the door holding a candle, her expression was vague and unpredictable under the candlelight, and then turned serious and condensed on her immature face.
"Ma'am. I have something to tell you."
Mrs. Su hurriedly invited her in, took the candle and stood it on the table, and replied with the same serious attitude, "Is it your master who wants you to send a message?"
"No."
"Xiao Wen?"
"No. Master and Miss don't know, I want to say it myself."
Mrs. Su nodded, frowned and said, "Say it."
Tang Yuan blinked, pursed her lips, scratched her nose, her small face was tense, and finally said, "It's about Young Master Meng."
