The Legend of Nanshan Jun

Chapter 58

In a blink of an eye, it has been more than four years since I entered the palace.

"Your Majesty, someone from Sixiufang said that the newly made dresses will be delivered in a few days." After Dieyi finished speaking, she saw Su Jinyue walking over and said, "Just as she was talking, she came."

I greeted Jinyue slightly, and sighed, "Yeah, it's almost Mid-Autumn Festival."

"My lord, this servant has been rushing to work these few days, and the dress has been made in advance, why don't you try it first, if there is any difference, I can change it when I go back."

I took the gown, unfolded it, and couldn't help but marvel at Jinyue's embroidery, "It's hard for you, but I'm not in a hurry, it won't be worth it if you burn out."

Jin Yue smiled shyly, but grabbed the corner of her clothes with her hands, as if she was a little worried.

"What's wrong?" I couldn't help asking.

Under my guidance, Su Jinyue is now in charge of the Embroidery Office and the Manufacturing Office at the same time, and I am planning to promote her to Shang Gong after a while.

But she seemed to be a little thin, and she didn't know what made her so worried.

Su Jinyue raised her head to look at me, her red lips parted slightly, and she was about to say something when she yelled, "Young Master, be careful!"

Then he pushed me aside violently, and stretched his arms out in front of me.

Her sudden push made me take a step back, and before I could react, I saw a bright white dagger stab into her chest.

It all happened in an instant, she whimpered, and her body went limp.

I hastened to catch her fallen body. I couldn't believe that the woman who was holding the newly embroidered brocade dress and smiling sweetly just now was dying.

There was a large red blood flower on her chest, which was still flowing out, staining my robe and hands red.

But no matter how I pressed the wound, it still couldn't stop the bleeding.

The assassin missed one hit, and when he tried to stab me again, he was already taken down by the guards on the side, who pressed his shoulder tightly to prevent him from moving.

I patted Su Jinyue's cheek lightly in a panic, and said in a deep voice, "Jinyue, are you okay? Hold on!"

Then he turned his head and said to Dieyi, "Prince doctor, hurry up and call the doctor!"

At the same time, I looked at the guard in front of me, my eyes were cold, "Take care of him, don't let him die."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

When I turned my gaze to Su Jinyue again, there was no trace of blood on her face, her body was much colder, and her breathing became weaker and weaker.

"Jinyue, hold on, the imperial doctor will be here soon."

She who was weak actually smiled slightly at this time, because the wound was affected, the smile was torn and deformed.

She reached out with difficulty to grab mine, but couldn't lift it up.

I quickly stretched out my hand, and wrapped my palm around her cold hand.

"My lord, Jinyue won't be here anymore, you have to be careful..." Her voice became softer and softer.

My nose couldn't help but feel a little sore, but I forced myself to remain calm, and I just replied to her lightly, "Don't talk nonsense, you will be fine."

"Master...Mo Cairen is also known as Shangguan Yingzhu."

"I know," I took a deep breath, but said lightly, "Stop talking, the wound will hurt."

"My lord... I can't bear to part with you." She smiled slightly, as if she had thought of something beautiful, her eyes were peaceful.

"But to die in the arms of the young master, Jinyue... die without regret..."

A tear fell down the corner of her eye, I stretched out my hand to help her gently wipe it away, and when I looked into her eyes again, there was no sound.

Such a bright life has withered like fallen leaves at this moment.

I hugged her for a long time, as if hundreds of millions of years passed.

"Silly Jinyue." I sighed lightly, brushing her flowery cheek with my hand.

I will avenge you.

The Imperial Physician arrived late, although I knew they had arrived as quickly as possible.

Dieyi panted and ran to my side, worried, "Your Majesty, how to solve today's matter?"

I hugged Jinyue's cold body, her body was as light as a feather.

I walked slowly step by step, and my voice was as cold as hell Shura, "Mo Yingzhu, I want her to die."

Zhongzhao Palace.

I came here for the first time, but it was accompanied by wind and rain.

Concubine Wang was sitting in the hall, beside Mo Cairen, next were Ye Meiren, Wang Jieyu and several other concubines.

"Mr. Nanshan, why did you enter the palace without notification?" Concubine Wang Guifei saw me appearing suddenly, accompanied by a group of guards and attendants, her face darkened.

"I am a male concubine of the first grade. I have the right to walk in the harem without notification. Even if you are in the Zhao palace, I can do it if I want to." I have never spoken in such a cold tone. It was gentle and polite, never had such a gesture, it really shocked Wang Guifei and others.

But I no longer want to wear a mask, I am who I am.

Dragons have inverse scales, and the wrath of touching them, since they caressed my inverse scales, they have to bear the corresponding price.

"Mr. Nanshan...you..." Wang Guifei looked at me and was so surprised that she couldn't say a word for a long time.

Ye Meiren and Wang Jieyu were the first to react, and bowed to me and said, "Your Majesty is a thousand years old."

Only Mo Cairen, standing beside Wang Guifei, said provocatively in his eyes, "Your Majesty, even if you are the head of male concubines, this is the imperial concubine's bedroom, there is absolutely no reason to force your way."

The corners of my lips raised an arc, and I said coldly, "Come on, slap your mouth."

Two guards came out in response, grabbed Mo Cairen and began to wave their hands and mouths.

What you say is what you say, and the speed is so fast that Wang Guifei was shocked, and then she seemed to realize something, and stopped her sharply, "Stop, in my palace, how can I allow you servants to mess around."

But her words did not stop the two guards, only the sound of applause and Mo Cairen's screaming and crying in the quiet hall was heard.

Wang Guifei winked at the people around her, and then said, "Mr. Nanshan, why do you beat Mo Cairen?"

I said coldly, "Such a talented person who speaks disrespectfully to me, shouldn't I hit him? Even if I am a male concubine, I am also the Emperor of Nanshan personally appointed by the emperor. If I teach a lowly maid who doesn't know how to behave, I still need to ask the concubine for instructions." ?”

The noble concubine nodded, but she smiled at Yan Yan, "Even if Mo Cairen is wrong, please forgive me on the Internet, if you damage her face, the emperor may feel distressed."

"In this way, there is no need for the imperial concubine to worry about it. I am here today to take Mo Cairen's life, and no one can stop me."

"Oh? Then I have to ask, how did Mo Cairen offend the monarch, and the monarch wants to put her to death?" Wang Guifei no longer had the anxious look just now, and returned to her usual graceful and calm, leisurely asked.

"Intent to assassinate this gentleman deserves ten thousand deaths."

"Oh? Your Majesty, do you have evidence? Mo Cairen has been with me in Zhongzhao Palace, how did you assassinate Your Majesty?"

I said in a deep voice, "The assassination of Mo Cairen's cronies is equivalent to her presence."

Concubine Wang Guifei chuckled, "I'm afraid that's inappropriate. How can the fault of the slave be blamed on the master, and please don't blame Mo Cairen, otherwise Mo Cairen will be really wronged."

"Grieved? Su Jinyue, who died in vain, is really wronged."

"It's a little palace, so what if he dies?" Mo Cairen snorted disdainfully and shrugged indifferently.

My anger was instantly aroused by her again, and I couldn't bear it anymore.

My icy voice sounded, "Come here, pass on the decree of my lord, Mo Yingzhu, die with a stick!"

As soon as these words came out, Mo Cairen was so frightened that his face turned ashen, and he quickly threw himself at Wang Guifei's feet, "Your concubine, empress, save my concubine."

Concubine Wang also stood up abruptly, and said with a sneer, "Mr. Nanshan, you have no right to kill Mo Cairen. She is a concubine and is out of your control."

I also said coldly, "I want him to die today, no one can stop me."

I confronted Wang Guifei with a tough posture for a long time, but suddenly I heard a familiar voice behind me, "What is making such a fuss?"

"Your Majesty, you are finally here." Seeing that the savior had arrived, Mo Cairen hurriedly threw himself into Li Zhenrui's arms, sobbing, "Your Majesty, please be the master of your concubine, because a palace servant died unexpectedly, Lord Nanshan suspected that his concubine did it, so he wanted to kill him with a stick."

"Oh? Really?" Li Zhenrui turned around and didn't look at Mo Cairen, but looked at me with deep eyes, "Mr. Nanshan, what's going on?"

I knelt down, "Your Majesty, Mo Cairen intended to assassinate this official, but accidentally killed Su Jinyue who was in the embroidered room. This official came to seek justice for Su Jinyue."

Li Zhenrui took a few steps in the hall, turned around and said, "Mo Cairen, is what Mr. Nanshan said true? If there is half a lie, I will not spare you."

Mo Cairen lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then Qi Qiran said, "The concubine didn't intend to assassinate Nanshan Lord, and the concubine didn't know that assassin, I just had a few words with him after listening to the play in Liyuan the day before yesterday."

"The assassin has contact with your brother outside the palace, how to explain it?" I looked at her coldly.

"The assassin was originally an opera singer. It is well known that the concubine brother loves to listen to operas. How can it be said that the concubine instructed him?" Mo Cairen replied with a straight body unyielding.

"Your Majesty, do you still need to listen again?" I turned my gaze to Li Zhenrui and looked at him deeply.

This is my reverse scale, this is my bottom line, I hope he supports me.

I am not a person who gets angry easily, but at this moment I am really angry.

Li Zhenrui seemed to have sensed my strong emotions, he was slightly taken aback, and then said, "Mo Cairen, I said that if there is even half a lie, I will not forgive you. It seems that you don't have a long memory."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please forgive me!" Mo Cairen turned pale, tremblingly climbed to Li Zhenrui's feet, grabbed his robe and begged, "This concubine only wants Su Jinyue's life, not to assassinate Mr. Nanshan! "

"Come here, put Mo Cairen in the cold palace, and you will never take a step out of the cold palace." Li Zhenrui gave the order, but it was not what I wanted.

"Your Majesty, I want her to die." I looked straight at Li Zhenrui and repeated, "I want her to die."

Li Zhenrui was silent, with a displeased expression on his face.

Concubine Wang knelt down at Li Zhenrui's feet, "Your Majesty, is it too hasty to deal with Mo Cairen before the investigation is clear? Besides, it's just a palace servant who died, and there is not much loss, leaving Mo Cairen in the cold palace Is it too harsh."

"Wang Guifei, you are not good at managing the East Palace, and I haven't punished you yet."

Concubine Wang straightened up, and said calmly, "The concubine's disciplining is unfavorable. But as the emperor said, Mo Cairen is a member of the Eastern Palace. No matter how big a mistake he makes, he should be disciplined by his concubine. How can outsiders do that?" Intervene?" She glanced at me after speaking, with obvious meaning.

I said coldly, "Wei Chen is the victim, how could it have nothing to do with Wei Chen?"

"Your Majesty, Mr. Nanshan wants to kill Mo Cairen! He is a male concubine, and it is exceeding his authority to meddle in the concubine's affairs. Please be judged by the emperor."

Concubine Wang Guifei knelt down again and smacked her head heavily.

Li Zhenrui rubbed his temples a little irritably, and said slowly, "This is not the fault of a talented person, Nanshan Lord is justifiable for being angry. But it is just like what Wang Guifei said, Nanshan Lord, you have exceeded your authority."

His voice was soft, and his accusation was not obvious, but I knew he was biased towards Wang Guifei.

I know that I shouldn't be so excited, maybe I have been tricked by others, but when people are most emotional, they will really burn all their reason.

And I thought that no matter what, Li Zhenrui would stand by my side and support me unconditionally.

But now it seems that he is on the side of Wang Guifei.

Yes, even if I overstepped my authority, I am far above Mo Cairen, and it is not unknown to deal with her. Why is Li Zhenrui unwilling to stand by me?

I didn't look at Li Zhenrui again, but my hands were trembling violently under the wide sleeves.

I took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "Even if the humble minister oversteps his authority, Mo Cairen must die."

I admit that I am not as smart and prudent as usual today, and I even disdain arguments. I only care about whether Li Zhenrui cares about me and supports me unconditionally.

Is the promise he made lightly to me that day effective now?

"Why do you want her to die? Give me a reason"

"One life for one life, this is the price she has to pay."

"A palace is so important to you?"

"She is Su Jinyue, she is not just a palace servant, she has the grace to save my life."

"You knew her before?" He changed his expression and looked at me suspiciously.

"Yes." I nodded without hesitation.

I don't want to lie to him, Jinyue is dead, if I can't even admit to her, is it a man's doing?

"There are laws and regulations in the palace, and the execution of Mo Cairen is justified."

"The emperor doesn't want to execute Mo Cairen, does he?" I took a deep breath, but couldn't help laughing, "I'm just a lowly servant girl with mediocre appearance. If the emperor thinks it's a pity, I will pick ten or hundreds more for you. ,how?"

As soon as the words fell, Li Zhenrui looked at me with anger in his eyes, "Mr. Nan Shan, be presumptuous."

But when I saw his anger, I smiled even wider, and even showed a determination that was not afraid of death at all, "Your Majesty, no matter Mo Cai's surname is Mo or Shangguan, she must die. If you don't want to deal with her openly, I will Make her live in a hundred ways."

"She must die." I solemnly repeated it for the last time, with the determination in my heart as unshakable as Mount Tai.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Nanshan disregarded the law, killed his concubines, and even threatened you. You can't agree!"

"Your Majesty, although Mo Cairen is usually a little arrogant because of his talent, he is not guilty of death!"

"Your Majesty, I beg you to be the master for my concubine, Lord Nanshan is blatantly trying to kill this concubine, I will not let my concubine die with peace!"

Li Zhenrui looked at me and Concubine Wang who were kneeling on the ground, silent, his brows were tightly knitted, and his face was dark and scary, but Concubine Wang and I did not relax at all.

He stood with his hands behind his back facing us for a long time.

Finally, he sighed a little tiredly, and said, "Come here, Mo Yingzhu, die with a stick."

"Your Majesty, how can you execute Mo Cairen so hastily based on the words of Mr. Nanshan alone?"

"Your majesty... don't! The concubine is wronged... The concubine is wronged..."

"Mr. Nanshan, I curse you, I curse you that one day you will be abandoned by the emperor, I curse you not to die well..."

The vicious curse disappeared at the end of the palace gate along with her screams.

There was a faint uneasiness in my heart, but I was forced to hold it down by myself.

I didn't believe in fate at first, but when I think of the past signatures and the constellation charts I observed these days, I always feel that the future is not good.

I wanted to try my best to avoid it, but I didn't know where to start, so I just shook my head and told myself not to think too much.

I tried my best to take a deep breath, and looked up at Li Zhenrui, but I saw that there was no emotion in his eyes when he looked at me, calm and indifferent, as if he was looking at a stranger.

My heart throbbed instantly.

I slowly bent down and whispered, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

He didn't say excuse me, he didn't look at me or Wang Guifei, his eyes seemed to be looking far away, and then he slowly pulled back to look down at us kneeling.

"To the end of today's matter, no one is allowed to mention it again."

"Mr. Nan Shan, don't come to the East Palace again from now on."

"Yes." I bowed my head respectfully, closing my eyes and not daring to meet his eyes again.

I know, I shouldn't force him like this, he is the emperor after all.

Mo Yingzhu is from the Shangguan family, and two people in the Shangguan family died because of me.

If I were me on weekdays, I would never do what I do today.

But people always lose control, and I am unreasonable when I lose control.

I exchanged my stubbornness for his compromise.

I didn't know it at the time, that is, at this moment, there was a rift between me and him.

"I'm tired." He left with some heavy steps.

When I could no longer see his back, I stood up and took a last look at Wang Guifei.

The resentment flashed in her eyes, but I didn't take it to heart.

That night, Li Zhenrui did not come to my bedroom, but turned over Shangguan Wenya's signboard.

Although Donghua Pavilion is far away from Shangguan Wenya's bedroom, I seem to have heard the sound of wind chimes from the imperial chariot ringing in the quiet night, and the jingle bells rang in my heart all the way, as if they were whipping my heart, pain after burst .

Zixuan, do you still like me?Or do you prefer a truly gentle and kind person like Shangguan Wenya?

Before I knew it, my face was covered with tears. It was windy tonight, and thick clouds covered the sky, but I still watched the stars all night.
