I rely on the collapse of people to set my life in the hands of the male protagonist

Chapter 214

Seeing that Chu Lishu was in a good mood, Lin Qingyang breathed a sigh of relief. The original text also explained the reasons why the three major clans dealt with Chu Lishu. At that time, Lin Qingyang only felt very angry when he read it, but Chu Lishu also reciprocated. He was stimulated by memories and enraged by the people of the Wang family. All the people in the house were killed by Chu Lishu himself. No one was left alive. The first to kill was the eldest prince. He also took the head of the eldest prince and the letter he had spoofed, and returned to the palace to continue defrauding the imperial concubine.

But now, Chu Lishu briefly explained the situation afterwards, and Lin Qingyang was stunned. He didn't expect that Chu Lishu would really let the eldest prince and Wang Tongen go, and he couldn't help being moved. Now Chu Lishu The book means really kindness too much.

but then...

"Are you going out tonight?" Lin Qingyang couldn't help asking.

Chu Li wrote: "Are you looking for the imperial concubine? It depends on when the emperor orders her to be killed, but I have to rest first."

Lin Qingyang was a little surprised that Chu Lishu took the initiative to ask for a rest, but he quickly realized, "Are you sick?"

Chu Lishu nodded. The medicine given by Mu Huichun was not bad, but the body was very tired, as if it was rapidly consuming energy, making people want to sleep.

Lin Qingyang immediately said: "Then let's sleep together tonight! Come on, go to my room, I'll watch you, in case something happens, I can still handle it."

It was not the first time Mu Huichun had taken the medicine, so what could happen, but seeing Lin Qingyang excitedly dragging him to the room to sleep, Chu Lishu definitely couldn't say no.

When the two were lying down, Chu Lishu found that Lin Qingyang didn't lie flat as usual, but took the initiative to look at him sideways. It was a bit strange, but after leaving for an afternoon and a night, he became so fond of him. up?

With a smile on the corner of Chu Lishu's mouth, he also turned sideways to meet Lin Qingyang's gaze. "What's wrong?"

While talking, he stretched out his hand to rub Lin Qingyang's cheek, and then placed it on his waist, bringing the two of them closer. When talking, it seemed as if they could breathe out to the tip of each other's noses.

Lin Qingyang didn't realize that the distance was too close, and he probably got used to it.

"Well, can you take me with you when you go to see the imperial concubine? I'll be your guard at the door. It's not safe after all. You need to prevent people from discovering you."

The system didn't give the task until now, so forget it, anyway, he has to follow, he can't let Chu Lishu go to see the imperial concubine alone.

Chu Lishu was slightly taken aback, not sure if Lin Qingyang wanted to cling to him, or if he was curious about his series of behaviors, and finally wanted to explore.In fact, he was willing for Lin Qingyang to find out the truth, and he didn't care to let Lin Qingyang know, but Lin Qingyang had always been very obedient and trusted him, and would never question any of his decisions, so he maintained the status quo.

Chu Lishu thought for a while, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you there."

Lin Qingyang immediately became happy, and now he feels relieved, no matter what happens, he should be able to stop it.

But seeing Chu Lishu's gradually peaceful sleeping face, Lin Qingyang was so infected that he wanted to sleep, and fell asleep without knowing it.

I don't know how long it took, Chu Lishu suddenly opened his eyes, quickly took out a dagger from under the mattress, sat up neatly, and protected Lin Qingyang who was sleeping inside behind him.

When the familiar code sounded, Chu Lishu breathed a sigh of relief and came to a window.

"My lord, the emperor just issued an order to bestow poisoned wine, and Director Hai has already followed the order."

Chu Lishu knocked on the window twice, and the people outside disappeared. Chu Lishu looked at the sky outside, and it was already past midnight.

Back at the bed, Chu Lishu tried to wake someone up, but Lin Qingyang was sleeping soundly, as if he had been dreaming.

Chu Lishu could only lean closer and yell softly, and suddenly heard Lin Qingyang chanting his name, this behavior made Chu Lishu's heart soften, do you like him so much?They were all lying beside him, but in the end they still haunted him in their dreams.

Couldn't help leaning forward and kissed, Lin Qingyang groaned, but there was no sign of waking up, Chu Lishu also felt sorry for him, and said to forget it, and give him a chance to follow in the future. Get dressed and leave on your own.

But when he left, Lin Qingyang on the bed seemed to be in a nightmare, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and he couldn't wake up.

Chu Lishu went to Lenggong alone, and when he went, he happened to meet Huo Luo and Yuechen. They also heard the news and knew that Chu Lishu would definitely come, so they guarded Chu Lishu here.

With Huo Luolai and Chu Lishu's familiarity with the palace, it was easy to avoid the group of guards and eunuchs outside the cold palace, they followed the emperor.

Entering the cold palace, they hid their whereabouts and came to a corner outside the palace, where they could see the emperor talking to the imperial concubine.

At this time, the imperial concubine was already crazy in the face of the news of the eldest prince's death. Her hair was loose and she was wearing a white dress, as if she was wearing sackcloth and filial piety. However, she was holding a jug in her hand, and she kept pouring wine into her mouth. He looked like he didn't want to wake up.

"Don't you have anything to tell me?" The emperor stood in the hall and watched coldly.

"Haha... married couple, but that's all. Our Wang family has come to this point. Your Majesty, can you say that it wasn't your fault?"

"It's a joke, it's my fault that you form a clique for personal gain and want to rebel!"

The imperial concubine laughed twice, staggered a few steps, "Then let me ask you, why did you marry me in the first place? After marrying me, why did you treat me so coldly, making me lose the dignity and face of a concubine. I gave birth to you Shuo'er, you thought of him as your eldest son for a moment, did you want to train him well? You don't like me, and you don't like him, how cruel you are to us, what right do you have to question us now. "

The emperor's veins twitched when he was said, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, "Mr. Wang, although I have not treated you favorably, I have not treated you badly either. It is because of your lack of greed. After all, you have failed me. Shuo'er has already gone down. You It's time to go with him."

After the emperor finished speaking, he left Director Hai and planned to leave.

Suddenly, the imperial concubine said coldly: "I'm dead, and there will be one less person who knows the emperor's secret. I'm afraid the emperor thinks that he can sleep peacefully tonight, but the emperor, it's very lively below, and Shuo'er and I shouldn't be the only ones." I am waiting for you, right? We are waiting for your arrival at any time, and how many grievances will be settled by then."

The emperor paused, and suddenly felt the blood rushing up. He didn't know if he was so angry, or his body started to fail recently.

He turned his head and gave the imperial concubine a cold look, without the slightest emotion in it, "Director Hai, stare at her and drink it, and report back after watching her die completely."

Director Hai immediately knelt down to accept the order.

How ruthless the emperor is.

He really never loved this woman at all, and he only married her for Wang's sake.He came to see her for the last time because he cared about her dignity.

After the emperor left, the imperial concubine's smile lingered for a long time. After drinking the last sip of wine, she smashed the jug heavily, wanting to come and get the poisoned wine in the hands of Chief Hai.

But as soon as he passed by, Director Hai took a step back.

The imperial concubine shook her head and said with a wry smile: "Could it be that I'm really drunk?!"

Suddenly, another voice sounded in the hall. "Don't you want to know the whereabouts of your son?"

The imperial concubine trembled all over, and turned her head to look over, "What did you say? You...you're not..."

Chu Lishu went forward to hand over the letter. The imperial concubine didn't believe it at first, but the moment she got the letter and saw the writing on it clearly, the imperial concubine burst into tears, and she grabbed Chu Lishu's arm in disbelief and asked, "My empress I'm still alive, I'm still alive!"

"Yes, but we didn't help for nothing." Chu Li wrote.

"What do you want? You are from Prime Minister Li, tell me, what else can I give you, as long as my emperor is alive, I am willing to exchange anything." As if a death row prisoner saw the hope of living, the imperial concubine Excitedly pulled Chu Lishu and shouted.

Chu Lishu narrowed his eyes slightly, suppressing his emotions, "We want to know what King Ning did during the death of the first emperor and empress?"

Regarding the past, most of Chu Lishu already knew it. The only thing he didn't know was what happened in the palace. He wanted to know how his father, queen and queen died. Don't want to miss one.

"Prime Minister Li wants to know this? That's right...knowing this can threaten that bastard. Well, I'll tell you all, and it's considered revenge for us!" The imperial concubine smiled proudly, and slowly recounted the events of the year, In fact, she knows more than Concubine Pei and the others, because he was Princess Ning back then, when something happened in the palace, both Prince Ning and Princess Ning were going to be there, and Prince Ning did not hide anything from her, after all, the Wang family was also involved in it from beginning to end of.

"At that time, I realized that the good prince whom everyone praised, the good brother of the late emperor, had been conspiring to usurp the throne. The three major clans and border countries all joined hands to deal with my Excellent nephew Yuan Ran, I really admire him. He used to love Yuan Ran so much, even more than his own son. He even unknowingly developed a rebellious heart, and his acting skills made people invisible. At that time I'm still jealous of his love for his nephew, but my silly son has always worshiped Yuan Ran, and after he succeeds to the throne, he will protect the border territory for him..." When the imperial concubine mentioned the eldest prince, she deviated from the point.

"Tell me something else." Chu Lishu frowned and said, "What I want to know is the death of the emperor and empress."

The imperial concubine was a little surprised and said: "Well, at that time, the first emperor was seriously ill, and there was news that Yuan Ran was dead outside, so King Ning went in and told the first emperor, but... the first emperor was not killed by Yuan Ran as rumored by the outside world. I was pissed off by the burning news. But... I was pissed off by the truth."

Chu Lishu's face changed slightly, he raised his head slowly, clenched his fists involuntarily, and heard the imperial concubine continue to speak with a sneer.

At that time, the three cities had been destroyed, and the situation was quite bad. In Funing Hall, the emperor was recuperating in the main hall, surrounded by many people.

King Ning said that he had something to report to the emperor alone, so he let everyone leave.

The queen mother was the first to leave, and she went back to her palace directly, but the queen was worried, and stayed in the side hall with her sister Xiaocheng and the prince's fiancée.

Concubine Ning was supposed to stay in the side hall, but recently she learned a lot of things and felt uneasy, so she went to take a peek at King Ning and the emperor.

As a result, I heard that it was King Ning who told the truth about his murder of Yuan Ran with his own words, as if he had imposed some punishment. The emperor was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot. After he fell down, he could no longer make any sound. When he called people over, he was already powerless, and after a while, the emperor left.

Hearing this, Chu Lishu gritted his teeth, suppressed the roiling anger, his face was already quite ugly, the cause of his father's death was so unexpected, it turned out that he was not mad at him, not by him...

The imperial concubine continued to narrate, and then it was like a rehearsal in the Palace of Funing. When the imperial physician announced the emperor's death, someone came forward and asked King Ning to take the throne and preside over the overall situation. The Queen Mother calls the shots.Then he went to the side hall alone, saying that he would personally inform the emperor's wife.

As a result, at this point, the imperial concubine suddenly smiled strangely at Chu Lishu. It was not a real smile, but a wry smile of fear emanating from a mood that she could not describe herself.

"At that time, King Ning took a white silk to the side hall and told the three people inside that the emperor had passed away. Then he left the white silk and said, 'The queen dies for love.' He sent his confidants to guard the gate of the hall, Leave. To the outside world, he refused other people's inquiries on the grounds that the queen was sad, and two days later... the rumors of the queen's death spread all over the palace, and he went to collect the corpse himself."

Chu Lishu took a step back suddenly, his pupils shrinking continuously.

He already knew that the death of the queen mother was strange, and it was not the martyrdom that outsiders said, because the strangle marks on the wound were different, and it was impossible for her to be hanged.So he had already been mentally prepared, knowing that someone else might have strangled his mother, whether it was a eunuch, a maid, or King Ning himself, he must know clearly, he didn't want to not even know who killed his mother and enemy.But...but...

Director Hai, who seemed to understand something, immediately knelt down in fear, trembling all over, not daring to raise his head.

Yuechen and Huo Luo, who were guarding the door, hadn't recovered from the shock of the last news, and it felt like they were struck by lightning right now.

Huo Luo looked at Yue Chen, as if he wanted to ask something, but seeing Yue Chen's pale face, he couldn't ask a word.

"Seeing how shocked you are, you should have guessed it. Indeed, the empress did not die for love herself, she was strangled to death, and the person who strangled her... was her own sister, and her chosen son. daughter in law."

A sentence hit Chu Lishu like a thunderbolt, and his mind went blank for an instant.

That day, Concubine Ning secretly stayed behind and looked at the situation in the side hall. Although she knew that King Ning would definitely kill the queen, she did not expect such a situation.Probably because they were afraid that other people's actions would eventually leak out, only the two inside would never dare to speak out, so they did so.

Concubine Ning saw Xiao Cheng holding the queen crying on the first day, Jing Rouyin was trembling in fear, on the second day she heard Xiao Cheng urging the queen to do it herself.But the queen didn't do it, she was not afraid of death, she was more in love with the emperor than Jin Jian, how could she be afraid of dying together, she just couldn't bear Yuan Ran, she didn't believe that Yuan Ran would die until she saw Yuan Ran's body, she thought Her son is proud, and believes that Yuan Ran can survive all difficulties and come back here. She also understands that no one in this palace will stand by Yuan Ran. She cannot leave Yuan Ran to face the predicament alone. Wait for Yuan Ran to come back, help him, and tell him the truth.

The queen didn't want to die, and tried to escape, but how could she escape.

If she does not die, the door of this side hall will never be opened.

When Concubine Ning went there again that night, she saw her unforgettable nightmare. She saw Xiao Cheng holding the two ends of the white silk while crying and saying sorry, while strangling the queen's neck fiercely. A woman wanted to It's still hard to strangle someone, but it's easy if there are two... one left and one right.The queen struggled, and Xiao Cheng could only shout at Jing Rouyin to help if she wanted to get out alive, and finally Jing Rouyin took the other end... and pulled hard.

She heard that the queen was still crying Yuan Ran's name before she died, and stretched out her hand to grab the door weakly... She was so scared that she vomited directly aside.

The queen is dead, with a mess of strangulation marks on her neck, her eyes are glaring, and she can't stand her eyes.Only she noticed that Xiao Cheng's hands were covered with red marks, and Jing Rouyin's nails were also broken several times. Both of them were shocked, they were carried out, and they didn't come out to see anyone for several days and nights.

So the current imperial concubine still doesn't understand why that empress Cheng can still live as she should...it's really hard to judge by appearance.

After the imperial concubine finished speaking, she looked at Chu Lishu, thinking that he would express shock and contempt, but the other party did not respond at all, and the whole person stood there rigidly, with no expression on his face.

After a long time, he raised his head and asked in a trembling voice, "No...is she her own sister?"

She doesn't like his son, he understands, after all, they have no feelings, but he is the sister who loves her the most...

The imperial concubine was a little confused why Chu Lishu reacted so strangely, she sneered, "Have you never seen the ugliness of the royal family, and there are even uglier ones. Let me tell you the last secret..."

The imperial concubine walked towards Chu Lishu slowly, as if sharing some amusing secret, she pressed his shoulder and said, "In fact, everyone in the palace can see that the emperor and Empress Cheng have an ambiguous relationship. You should have noticed it after you have been here for so long. After all, it is already a well-known secret. But no one knows, they have not been clear about it since more than ten years ago, when I discovered their adultery not long after I was pregnant."

"Do you know why Empress Cheng is so cold-blooded and ruthless to her sister and her son Yuan Ran? Because she also has her lover and a son who lived with her lover. In fact, Yuan Ye is not the seed of the former emperor, but him and that bitch My son, that's why we have to bother to fight for the position of crown prince. Everyone tells us not to worry, the emperor will not hand over the throne to his nephew, hehe, how can he not be in a hurry, of course he will! Because of that It's his own son!"

After the imperial concubine finished speaking, she laughed, and suddenly another louder laughter came out.

Chu Lishu laughed wildly, his eyes were scarlet, and the air pressure around him seemed to be compressed into a dangerous state.

Finally, the imperial concubine realized something was wrong, and Yue Chen and Huo Luo who were at the door also rushed in at the same time.

Huo Luo saw that Chu Lishu's internal energy was out of control, and today happened to be the day when his Tianxuan Pill broke out, and he was about to go mad, so he hurried forward to channel his internal energy.But he was shaken away by Chu Lishu's palm.

Chu Lishu turned around and left, unknowingly holding a dagger in his hand, the murderous aura lingering around him almost solidified.

He's going to kill, he's going to kill everyone who gets in his way, everyone who gets close, everyone.
