Empress

It has been half a month since I received Sun Ting's reply.

Sun Ting said in the letter: Yu'an has been placed in a safe place, please rest assured.There is also the seal of the second prince on the back of the letter.

This was deliberately left by Rong Cheng when he asked Sun Ting to reply to the letter, in case something went wrong on the way to deliver the letter and someone dropped the package.Now Rong Cheng's heart finally fell to the ground.

He burned the letter and looked at the burning flame in the stove with complicated eyes.That night, Guan Hongfeng came.

He pushed open the door and walked into the room, and saw that he was sitting at the table, the candlelight shrouded his side face, as if covered with a layer of hazy veil, his lips were bright red, and his eyebrows were soaked in the smoke of fireworks.Guan Hongfeng's heart was itching more and more. The person he had missed for so long was finally able to stay by his side again.Guan Hongfeng said indifferently: "My people have already sent Yu'an to Yang County." Rong Cheng nodded, "I see."

Guan Hongfeng looked at the dilapidated house, and didn't want to stay any longer, "In that case, I will go back to the palace with you now." Rong Cheng looked out of the house, and saw seven or eight guards guarding outside, each of them tall and burly. The yard is surrounded like an iron barrel.Guan Hongfeng took great pains to take him back.

Rong Cheng calmly said: "You wait for me outside, I will pack up my things and go with you."

Guan Hongfeng frowned, "What else are you packing, there are all these things in the palace, it's better than this." Rong Cheng shook his head, "I'll go back with you after I take it away."

Seeing Guan Hongfeng's ugly face, he joked, "Are you still afraid that I will run away?" Guan Hongfeng snorted, "It's up to you?"

"Okay, I'll give you some time to stick to the incense stick. If you procrastinate and refuse to leave, don't blame me for doing it." Guan Hongfeng turned and left, returning to the carriage.

He was not afraid of Rong Cheng's escape, let alone whether he could escape from the courtyard, even if he escaped by chance, he would not be able to escape very far.This time, Guan Hongfeng came here after taking all precautions.

Rong Cheng got up and went to the box, opened the lid, and took out the white silk that he bought in the shop that day.Lingluo was rough, rubbing the palm under the palm.

Rong Cheng walked under the beam, threw the white silk in his hand over his head, passed through the beam, and landed in front of him in a long way, with a knot tied at both ends.He turned his head and looked out the window, but he couldn't see anything. He put his feet on the pole, held the knot with both hands, and stuck his head in.After a while, the sound of a hard object hitting the ground sounded in the silent night.Guan Hongfeng in the carriage heard it and frowned, "What's the sound?" Eunuch Yang hesitated and said, "It seems to be coming from the Dragon House."

Eunuch Yang looked curiously at the half-closed door, and saw a figure hanging on the beam, with his toes off the ground, his face turned pale with fright, and he said in a panic: "Your Majesty, no...it's not good, the dragon trick hanged himself from the beam! With a buzzing sound in his head, Guan Hongfeng threw open the curtain, jumped out of the carriage without thinking, and rushed towards the house. He kicked open the door, only to see Rong Cheng hanging on the white silk, shaking slightly.

Guan Hongfeng's heart seemed to be suffocated at that moment, he quickly ran over to hug Rong Cheng, and rescued him from the white silk.Rongcheng was put on the ground, there was a clear red mark on his fair neck, his eyes were closed tightly, and his breathing was very weak.Guan Hongfeng turned his head and yelled at Eunuch Yang: "What are you still doing, call the imperial doctor!" Eunuch Yang responded frightened, stumbled and ran away.

Guan Hongfeng patted Rong Cheng's face, gritted his teeth and said, "Wake up for me!"

After an unknown amount of time, Rong Cheng slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were blurred, and the white silk was still shaking left and right.Guan Hongfeng's eyes flashed with anger, and he roared angrily: "You are crazy, how dare you...how dare you kill yourself!"

Rong Cheng's eyes were out of focus, he tried his best to look at the person in front of him, and said in a hoarse voice: "Guan Hongfeng, I will not go back to the palace with you." Guan Hongfeng's eyes were bloodshot, and he finally heard the words he didn't want to hear the most.

His voice was hoarse, as if his throat had been torn, "Then you were lying to me when you said that you would go back to the palace with me after I sent Yu An away?" Rong Cheng said hoarsely: "Yes."

Guan Hongfeng's heart was bleeding.

It turned out that Rong Cheng was so obedient and came back with him just to use him to save Yu'an.Guan Hongfeng gritted his teeth and said: "How dare you lie to me, believe it or not, I will catch that dog slave back and cut him to pieces!"

Rong Cheng laughed bitterly, "It's late, Yu'an has been sent to a place that no one knows, and you can't find him." Guan Hongfeng's face suddenly changed, he stretched out his hand, but he was grabbing Rong Cheng's neck At that moment he hesitated.

The ashes on his face could not be concealed, like a coquettish flower blooming from inside, withered and died, "If you want me to go back to the palace, then take my corpse back." Guan Hongfeng clenched his teeth, "I promised to treat you well, Isn't that enough?"

Rong Cheng's eyes were red, and he laughed in a snarky voice, "Guan Hongfeng, I don't believe you, you never treat me as a human being, one day if I don't feel happy, I will fall back to the same fate as before." The only reason to back down is to bring him back to the palace, and when he is with Sheng Jia again, Guan Hongfeng will definitely reveal his true nature.At that time, he will only die worse.

Guan Hongfeng's eyes were complicated, "You have been by my side for so many years and you are unwilling to die, now you can't bear it anymore?"

Rongcheng laughed weakly, "If you have been tortured and seen the good outside, you won't be willing to go back to the tomb of the living dead again."

Guan Hongfeng suddenly shouted: "This is not you! You should live on, just like before, let others trample on you and don't want to die!"

Rong Cheng laughed tremblingly, "You are the Son of Heaven, I can't beat you." Guan Hongfeng's heart was like a knife.

At this point, how dare he insist on it, Rong Cheng is determined to die, even Bai Ling was prepared early.If he pushes Rong Rong again, I am afraid that the person who will accompany him in the future will really be a corpse.

Guan Hongfeng stood up staggeringly, stared at Rong Cheng for a while, left a sentence "You are not allowed to leave the imperial city even if you stay here", and then slammed the door and left.The room fell silent for a moment.

Rong Cheng looked at the blurred back, he let out a long breath, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, struggled to get up from the ground, a few locks of hair scattered in front of his eyes, looked at the ground, and suddenly raised the corners of his mouth.He won the bet.

Rong Cheng stroked his neck, looked up at the white silk above his head, and felt the pain of suffocation at the moment when he hanged himself, as if he was still on the scene.Naturally, he will not die, he still has to live to see Guan Hongfeng die with his own eyes.

Rong Cheng stood up and pulled Bai Ling off the beam, the knot seemed to still have his warmth.For several days, Guan Hongfeng did not appear again.

Rong Cheng knew that the emperor had compromised this time, he didn't have to go back to the palace, but he couldn't leave the imperial city either.

But he had already seen through it. With Guan Hongfeng's stalking nature, even if he fled to the ends of the earth, he would still be found by the emperor.Rather than living in an uneasy life outside, it is better to be under Guan Hongfeng's nose and find a little freedom under his surveillance.On this day, Rong Cheng went to the town to buy vegetables, planning to cook to celebrate his escape from the sea of ​​suffering.He was picking vegetables when he suddenly heard someone beside him talking about King Shaonan.

"I heard that King Shaonan went crazy and killed several servants in his house last night. It's scary."

"King Shaonan has always acted prudently on weekdays, but he has been erratic in recent days. I don't know if he has bumped into something unclean." Only Rong Cheng knew why King Shaonan went crazy.I'm afraid it has something to do with Yu'an's "death" in the hunting ground that day.

The corpse of the fake "Yu'an" suddenly appeared in Rong Cheng's mind. If he was the King of Shaonan and saw Yu'an's death in a miserable state, he might become like this.

However, King Shaonan was not sad for Yu'an, it was just because the substitute of his beloved younger brother died, and he couldn't find a similar person to replace him for a while, so he was just sad.It really deserves it.

Now this end, it is cheaper for King Shaonan.

When Xu Shi heard that King Shaonan was having a bad time, Rong Cheng felt even happier, and extravagantly bought a few extra pieces of pork belly, and went home to make meat dishes.

After Rong Cheng bought the groceries, he went home with a full load of things, and saw a figure standing outside the door with his back turned to him from a distance. That figure was somewhat similar to Guan Hongfeng's.By the time Rongcheng realized who that person was, it was too late to leave.

King Shaonan turned around slowly, his eyes were bloodshot, like a mad beast, staring straight at Rongcheng.Rong Cheng's back tensed, and he subconsciously took a step back.King Shaonan stepped forward and approached him, "Where's Yu'an?" Rong Cheng's palms were sweating, and he said calmly, "He's dead."

These words seemed to pinch the sore spot of King Shaonan, and he roared angrily: "He's not dead!" Rong Cheng looked at him expressionlessly: "Didn't you see the corpse? Why do you deceive yourself and others?" King Shaonan stretched out his hand to grab Zhu Rong showed his clothes, "Don't you try to lie to me, that's not him, he must not be dead."

Rong Cheng tightly grasped the food in his hand, he knew that King Shaonan would notice sooner or later, but he never expected to find him so soon.Rong Cheng said calmly: "It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, he is dead, and he will never come back to life."

"Do you think I will believe your nonsense?" King Shaonan's face was twisted, and he smiled, "You have never seen Yu'an's body, how can you be sure that person is Yu'an?" Rong Cheng frowned slightly , did not speak.

King Shaonan approached his face, stared at Rong Cheng, his eyes were as cold as ice in February, and said gloomyly: "Is it you and my brother who planned it?"

Rong Cheng's heart skipped a beat, but his face remained calm, "I believe Yu'an died because he was wearing the jade pendant I gave him, if it wasn't him who died, then why did the jade pendant appear on the corpse? Shao Nan Wang laughed coldly, "Do you think I will believe your words? A few days after you came back, Yu An was killed in the paddock. He is a slave, why did those assassins kill him?" Rong Cheng's eyelids twitched , not wanting to waste words with him, he raised his legs to leave, but the King of Shaonan suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed Rong Cheng under his body, pinching his neck tightly, his eyes were red like blood, "Tell me, where is he!

Rong Cheng's face was flushed red, he was almost out of breath, and his legs kicked on the ground indiscriminately.

King Shaonan seemed to be insane, and the strength in his hands was so strong that his veins burst out, "You tell me, or I will kill you!"

Rong Cheng closed his mouth tightly and did not open his mouth. His consciousness became weaker and weaker under the suffocation. Just when he thought he was going to die, he heard a muffled sound. King Shaonan froze in place, and then fell heavily to the side.

The moment he fell, Guan Hongfeng's face appeared behind him.
