"Sakura, are you willing to leave the palace?"
Xiaoying hurriedly shook her head: "I don't want to. Xiaoying will always serve the queen."
"What's so good about the palace?" Wen Yuan sneered. Trapped in a small place, the sky he could see when he looked up was also confined to a square frame.
Not to mention traveling around the beautiful mountains and rivers of the motherland, she couldn't even go to the Buer Porridge Shop on the main street of Beijing.
"Hello, Your Majesty. You are the best." Xiaoying lay affectionately on the head of Wen Yuan's bed, her eyes sparkling with her beloved Imperial Concubine.
This silly girl, I don’t know when she will be sold.
Wen Yuan touched her face helplessly and thought, forget it, I'll find a chance to send her out of the palace.
It was late at night and the candle in the bedroom had gone out.
Wen Yuan: [System.]
System: [Host, I am here.]
Wen Yuan: [Use Dream Weaving Reward.]
System: [Okay, dear host, what kind of dream would you like to weave, and for whom?]
Wen Yuan raised his lip. [Target: Su Jinyun. Dream Requirements: Place Ji Xingyao's 3D scanned remains at Su Jinyun's bedside, so she can see them immediately. No matter how hard she tries to avoid them, she won't be able to escape until the next morning.]
Until dawn means that once Su Jinyun enters the dream, she will not wake up halfway, and the torture of the nightmare will last for the whole night, even if someone tries to wake her up in reality.
The system shuddered: [Host, your move is too cruel.]
Wen Yuan: [I'm cruel? Don't you know better than me what Su Jinyun has done?]
The system sneered: [Hehe, hehe... This system is very tight-lipped, host, don't try to trick me~]
Wen Yuan also laughed: [Then can you get rid of the baby in my belly quietly?]
The system evaded the question and changed the subject: [Host, the dream is complete. The deadline is one month. When is the release date?]
Wen Yuan: [After Xingyao is buried.]
System: [Received. Goodbye, host. Have a sweet dream.]
The electronic panel shut down and the system crashed again.
Wen Yuan slept too much during the day, so he didn't feel sleepy at this time.
She habitually touched the jade bracelet on her wrist and opened her eyes in the darkness.
I don't know how long it took, but I heard footsteps in the house, neither fast nor slow, and then I heard the sound of cloth rustling, and the person took off his clothes.
Li Zhao did not ask anyone to light the lamp. He took advantage of the dim night and came to the bed with ease.
Suddenly, he chuckled softly, with a hint of pampering: "Why are your eyes open? Are you awake?"
He had excellent night vision and could accurately meet Wen Yuan's eyes.
"I can't sleep until Xingyao's body is cold."
It is not difficult to hear the condemnation in these words.
Looking at the entire Taifeng Dynasty, the only person who could accuse Li Zhao so openly was Wen Yuan.
Three years ago, the old emperor Li Taiming passed away, and the struggle for the throne among several princes became fierce. After several battles, a number of people died, including the former queen and three princes.
After Li Zhao ascended the throne, there was only one concubine, Wen Yuan, in the harem, and the calls for Li Zhao to expand his harem never stopped.
Li Zhao always ignored these advices.
Until the envoys from southern Xinjiang came to the emperor and proposed a marriage alliance.
Wen Yuan thought that one day Li Zhao would fill his harem, but he never expected that Li Zhao would make someone else his queen.
In this case, Wen Yuan can abort the baby without any burden.
Because Li Zhao could have children with the future queen, their child would not only be the first prince of the Taifeng Dynasty, but also the bond of the southern border.
Li Zhao was an ambitious emperor who wanted to expand the Taifeng Dynasty's territory, achieve great achievements, and leave his name in history. The Princess of Southern Xinjiang arrived at just the right time.
When Wen Yuan married Li Zhao, there was a fierce struggle in the inner court and the Prince's Mansion was on the verge of collapse.
Wen Yuan's mother's family was already close to the prince, and was implicated in the court struggle. Wen Yuan did not want to get involved in the muddy water of the Grand Tutor's Mansion, so he sent a letter to his father, politely persuading him to retire and return to his hometown, Yangzhou City.
The Grand Tutor listened to her and moved his entire family to Yangzhou City.
After Li Zhao ascended the throne, he sent people to Yangzhou to invite the Grand Tutor to return to Beijing, but the Grand Tutor politely declined.
Now, in the capital, Wen Yuan has no one behind him and is weak and powerless.
Even the title of imperial concubine was given by Li Zhaoshang.
If a queen with a powerful family came into the palace at this time, one can imagine Wen Yuan's situation.
Call her narrow-minded or jealous, she couldn't accept this result.
chapped.
The palace lantern beside the table was lit by Li Zhao.
The dim candlelight illuminated the bedroom. Half of Li Zhao's face was hidden in the darkness. His eyes were deep and fell heavily on Wen Yuan.
"The prefect has found the shop where Madam Li bought the Aconitum. The shopkeeper said that Madam Li goes there once every two weeks and has not missed a visit for three years."
Wen Yuan listened quietly. Li Zhao had said he would give her an explanation, and he kept his word.
"and then."
"The prefect is still investigating. Anyone who has any connection with Madam Li has been detained, awaiting trial."
"Are Su Jinyun and Li Heng under interrogation?" Wen Yuan stared at Li Zhao motionlessly, pressing him step by step.
"Not here." Li Zhao replied.
This result was within Wen Yuan's expectations.
"The Su family's pharmacy is the largest in the capital. Some small shops that don't have all the ingredients will go to Su's pharmacy to get them. Why not ask the prefect what the relationship is between the pharmacy that Madam Li often goes to and Su's pharmacy?"
Wen Yuan thoughtfully pointed out the direction to Li Zhao.
"Why are you so familiar with Su's Pharmacy?" Li Zhao asked.
"I asked the secret guards to investigate." Wen Yuan answered openly.
Li Zhao assigned the secret guard to Wen Yuan to protect her safety. However, Li Zhao did not expect that the secret guard would obey Wen Yuan's arrangement and go out of the palace to investigate Su Ji Pharmacy.
The secret guard has been helping Wen Yuan for several years, and this is the first time Wen Yuan has made it clear to Li Zhao.
She no longer cared about her relationship with Li Zhao. At most, she could endure another month, when the dream weaving took effect and she witnessed Su Jinyun's end, and then she would be free of worries.
Wen Yuan looked at Li Zhao provocatively, waiting for him to become angry and embarrassed.
After waiting for a long time, Li Zhao did not respond.
"Tomorrow I will send someone to tell the prefect to check Su Ji's Pharmacy."
uninteresting.
Wen Yuan turned over and stopped looking at him.
After a while, the palace lanterns went out, the corner of the quilt was lifted up, and Li Zhao got into bed.
An arm stretched out from the waist, and the broad palm was placed on the flat belly. The warmth of the palm warmed the belly, which was very comfortable.
Li Zhao's force was very gentle, as if he was afraid of scaring her, and even his breathing was very light.
"You can do whatever you want. Don't be afraid. I'll cover you. I'm sorry about Xingyao's death. It was so sudden. I can't change the ending."
Li Zhao's nose was against Wen Yuan's neck, and when he spoke, his breath sprayed on her hair, making it feel tingling.
"Ah Heng failed to protect Xingyao, and he lost an arm, which is what he deserved. But, he would never hurt Xingyao, I believe him on that."
Wen Yuan's voice was calm: "I only believe in evidence."
"Okay, I'll show you."
