princess come to my arms

Chapter 34 Identity Exposed

Gu Zixuan's heart is devoted to respecting the king, and he has no time to delve into the matter of cold arrows.But the emperor Li Jiayi was on the contrary, he was already extremely angry, and if he didn't find out the matter, it would be difficult to explain to the king and his wife, and it would be difficult to calm the anger in his heart.

On the second day of the prince's dust-cleaning banquet, the queen truthfully told the truth about Concubine Shu's assassination of Princess Yongle.He wanted to kill Concubine Shu, but it was the Queen's request, and finally decided to lock Concubine Shu in the cold palace and keep him under strict supervision.

There was no reason for her to be there, and she showed up.

When Jin Yiwei found Concubine Shu, she had lost too much blood and fell to the ground dead, that is, there was no proof of death.

"Report to the emperor, the eunuchs and maids from the cold palace will bring you here." The guard's voice interrupted Li Jiayi's thoughts.

He came back to his senses, glanced coldly at the door, and saw those people who had already shaken into a sieve.

"Bring it in!" Li Jiayi said.

"Yes!"

The guards brought in several eunuchs and maids who were similar to Concubine Shu.Then, as soon as they put their hands down, they knelt down with a plop, wailing incessantly: "The emperor has mercy——the emperor has mercy—"

His head hit the floor heavily with a dull sound.

"Who released Concubine Shu privately?" Li Jiayi roared angrily on the dragon chair.

The cowardly people below were all shocked by the fear of the dragon, and then stopped kowtowing, and began to cry and fight: "It's not a slave! The slave doesn't know! Your majesty, please spare me!"

"Still lying here! The Leng Palace is heavily guarded. If it wasn't for someone's help, how could she have escaped?"

"The slave doesn't know!"

Li Jiayi's patience has reached its limit, "I'll ask you again, who released Concubine Shu and who ordered it? Otherwise, I will be punished!"

"The slave doesn't know—the slave doesn't know—"

"I don't know! Jin Yiwei, drag them down and give them a fifty-fifty ban first! I have something to say first, if you confess, you can be exempted from punishment and deal with it leniently."

The brocade guards in bullfight uniforms moved out, their expressions were silent, but they scared the crap out of those people, knelt and curled up there, and were finally dragged away abruptly, with their hair disheveled and messy.

"Zeng Qing! Take the people from Dongchang to search the Leng Palace to find out about this matter."

"The slave obeys the order!"

The people in the main hall retreated one by one, and suddenly fell silent.Li Jiayi sat alone on the dragon chair, looking out at the dark night outside the gate with deep eyes.

He was lost in thought.

He thought of Li Yuqi's face that slowly lost his anger after being wounded by an arrow today.This child has been bullied by others since he was a child, but he always endures it silently without saying a word.While protecting his shortcomings, he showed rare fearlessness and perseverance.

He has many children, but he lost one a few months ago, injured two, and almost lost another one today.What about... what next?

As he got older, the throne had become a fatal attraction.Not only the prince, but also among the group of ministers below, there are also those who are ready to move, and there are some who want to do wrong in skins, which are unfathomable and hard to get rid of.

These people who covet the throne always pay attention to the disturbances in the palace, and arrange their eyeliner according to the stitches, so as to achieve their intentions.

Recently, he punished the prince and put him in prison, causing turmoil in the government and the opposition.They wanted to get in the way.

Going down... the prince is afraid that he is in danger!

Li Jiayi was astonished when he thought of this, the target of those thieves was not Princess Yongle, nor Zunwang and his wife, but Prince Li Yuxuan.

If this is the case, then the Great Jin Dynasty is really going to be in chaos!

Suddenly, Li Jiayi figured it out.He yelled outside Jinshen Hall: "Come on!"

"The minister is here!" Someone responded quickly, and then a guard walked in from outside the Jinshen hall, knelt down, and clasped his fists.

"Pass down my oral order to release the prince and bring him to the Jinshen Palace."

"Yes!"

"Ziyou, the prince is in prison, the seventh brother is injured, why are there so many changes in the palace recently?" On the bed, Li Weixi and Gu Ziyou couldn't sleep for a long time, so they chatted.

"There is a treacherous villain who secretly manipulates and wants to turn Chao Gang upside down."

"Who is it?" Li Weixi asked.

"We don't know for the time being. It depends on whether the matter of Concubine Shu can catch him."

"Well, tomorrow morning, we will go to Qianqing Palace."

"it is good."

"Princess, son-in-law, are you asleep yet?" Just as they were chatting, Ma Lin's knock came from outside the door.The two turned their attention to the door.

"I haven't fallen asleep yet, Uncle Ma, what's the hurry?" Normally at this time, the servants of the Princess Mansion would not disturb them unless there was something urgent.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been released from prison. He is currently in the main hall. He wants to take Miss Si Mao back to the East Palace, so he ordered the younger one to come and inform her."

"Father really released the prince?" Li Weixi was startled from the bed with disbelief in his tone.

Gu Ziyou beside him also sat up, "Put on your clothes and go out to check if it's all right, seeing is believing."

"Okay!" Li Weixi couldn't hold back anymore, after putting on her clothes, she hurried to the main hall.

"Brother Huang!" Li Weixi recognized the figure of the prince from a long distance away, and called out loudly.

"Xi'er, Ziyou." Li Yuxuan was wearing a green shirt, holding Jiang Simao's hand, smiling lightly, his face was a lot thinner, "I made you worry, thanks to your care of Simao these days, If she is alone in the East Palace, she will inevitably be bullied. The child in her womb will also be in danger. Thank you all."

"Brother Huang, please be polite, as long as you are safe and sound."

"I heard that the seventh brother was injured today?" Li Yuxuan changed the subject and chatted about the assassination of King Zun today.

"Being hurt by Concubine Shu, I'm afraid there is someone behind the scenes."

"You have to be more careful today. We are in the light, and they are in the dark. You need to be on guard."

"Well, it's late at night, and the emperor has to go back to the East Palace? It's okay to stay in the princess mansion for one night."

"Now that the East Palace is in a mess, Gu still needs to go back to deal with some matters, so I won't stay here for a long time. I'm leaving now."

"Be careful on the road."

After seeing off the prince in the howling wind, Li Weixi's hanging heart finally fell.This could hardly be regarded as a blessing in disguise, Gu Ziyou rarely had a smile on his face.

"It's windy at night, princess, let's go back to the bedroom."

"it is good."

**

On the outskirts of Nanjing, a man in night clothes walked out from the broken wall, wearing a bamboo hat and a black veil on his head.The shoes made a strange sound when they stepped on the broken leaves.

He walked under two embracing camphor trees, circled his index finger and thumb, put them in his lips, and whistled.After the whistle sounded for three seconds, a black hawk came in the air.

The man in black raised his arm with his back facing upwards, and the black eagle landed on his hand.The man in black stroked the eagle's feathers twice, then took out a bamboo tube from his bosom, and tied it to the black eagle's leg.After the bamboo tube was tied firmly, the arms were raised upwards, and the black eagle fluttered away.

The man in black disappeared into the night and disappeared in the blink of an eye...

In the early morning of the next day, Gu Zixuan, who hadn't slept all night, opened the door of the inner room, and called his servants to find a carriage.

After a while, the servant returned and reported: "Princess, the carriage is ready!"

"Okay." Gu Zixuan responded softly, and came to the bed, wrapped the wound on her back with gauze to prevent wound infection, and then she covered Zun Wang's body with a tunic, tied a knot, and made the tunic Will not fall easily.Then wrap it in a thin quilt to avoid catching cold.

After all these preparations were made, she carried the burden she had packed this morning, which contained poison healing utensils, herbs and the cloth strips that had been removed from Zun Wang's body.

With the burden on his back, Gu Zixuan picked up Li Yuqi in his arms, got into the carriage, and returned to Zunwang's Mansion.

After returning to the familiar bedroom and closing the door, Gu Zixuan relaxed.She placed the king on a soft bed, opened layers of protection, and checked whether the wound was open due to the bumping of the carriage.Fortunately, that didn't happen.

Gu Zixuan checked Zun Wang's pulse again, and checked the healing status of Zun Wang's back.She predicted that the king would not wake up until tonight at the earliest, so she planned to wash up.

The clothes on her body were still stained with blood, and every drop was from Zun Wang's body, which made her very uncomfortable.

Gu Zixuan lowered the curtains around the bed, blocked the sight of entering the door with a screen, closed the door of the main hall, and came to the side hall.She called the maid, replaced the bath with hot water, then took off her clothes and submerged in the water of the bath.

On the bed, Li Yuqi was lying on his side, still sleeping with his eyes closed, but he slept uncomfortably and peacefully.Suddenly, a mosquito and fly that got in from nowhere came to her ear, buzzing continuously.

Originally, she was weak and slept soundly, so she didn't even notice the chirping of mosquitoes and flies.Then the flies flew closer and closer, lingering and reaching her ears, and she became restless.

When this irritability accumulated to a certain peak, she woke up unexpectedly.The body shook slightly, frightening the mosquitoes and flies, and they flew away.

The ears were clean, but Li Yuqi couldn't sleep anymore.She blinked her eyelids, and slowly opened her eyes a crack, accepting the light coming in from the window paper.After sleeping for too long, his vision is still blurred, and the scene in front of him is hazy.She closed her eyes again, opened them again after a short rest, and finally adjusted the focus.And the drowsy head gradually woke up.

She tried to recall everything that happened yesterday.I remember that someone put a cold arrow on the back mountain to harm the princess, I remembered that she blocked the arrow for the princess, and I also remembered that after drawing the arrow, she woke up and begged the princess to let her take the medicine herself.But I can't remember anything after that, the memory is broken by taking the medicine.

She rolled her eyes and looked at everything around her.The familiar curtains and furnishings made her immediately recognize that this was the bedroom of the Prince Zun's Mansion.At this time, there were no servants in the room, and the princess was nowhere to be seen, only her.

They have come out of the palace.How did they come out?And what about your injuries?

Li Yuqi moved his numb fingers, and after his wrist was flexible, he slowly stroked his body.The delicate skin rubbed against each other, and she was actually naked under the quilt!

His eyes looked down in disbelief, and what he saw was exactly what he thought, the wrapping cloth on his chest had long since disappeared.

From yesterday to today, the only person beside me is the princess.

Then explain...or explain...

The princess already knows the secret!

Li Yuqi's expression froze on his face, like ashes.The body began to shake slightly, and suddenly tears came down.

Now that the princess knew her identity as a woman and her deception, she would not treat her as usual.The relationship between them will also come to an end.

Li Yuqi's tears flowed more fiercely, blooming one by one on the snow-white quilt.The princess treated her so well, but she lied to her so deeply.The matter has come to this point, and there is no way to recover.

She bit her lower lip and propped herself up on her elbows.Now that the princess knows the truth, she will not stay by her side, and she will do one last thing for her.

After bleeding so much, I don't know where the strength came from.Li Yuqi ignored the pressure on his back and propped up his body, but his legs were a little weak, so he could only hold on to the bed frame and stood up tremblingly.She picked up the clothes she had put aside and put them on.

Step by step, he slowly moved to the desk and sat down.

She rubbed the ink with trembling fingers, then unfolded a piece of rice paper, took off the brush, and began to write on the paper with difficulty.

The two characters at the end of the pen are the words "Shuo Shu".

The wound on her back opened due to her actions, and the bright red blood flowing out was reflected on the white shirt. She didn't realize it, and all her attention was focused on the small piece of paper in front of her that was far from her sincerity.

Every time she writes a word, her heart will be cut bloody.Tears welled up in his eyes, blurred his vision, and were mercilessly wiped away.It pops up again, gets wiped off again, and so on.

The breathing in the nose became more and more rapid, and she couldn't catch it anymore. She had to open her mouth and take a big breath.When the pen fell on the last place of her name, she couldn't hold it anymore, she clenched the pen tightly, her fingertips turned white, and she took a quick breath.

Seeing that there was only two o'clock left, but there was no ink in the inkstone, she anxiously stretched out her hand, wanting to take the ink stick and grind the ink.But the action was too hasty, and he accidentally knocked over the inkstone and fell to the ground, making a loud noise.

Gu Zixuan in the bathtub of the side hall was startled by the sound and stopped moving.When she judged that the voice came from the main hall, her expression changed suddenly, and she hurriedly got up from the bath.

Randomly grabbed a piece of clothing and draped it over his body without even tying a knot, Gu Zixuan hurried to the bedroom.
