Only seven days left to live? She goes crazy and kills
Chapter 98: Showing loyalty
Sheng Jing'an's face was pale, and he was curled up on the ground in pain. Even his lips were trembling: "Dong... Donghuang, why? Why do you do this to me?"
He couldn't understand, so he tried to raise his head, and looked at Yan Donghuang with eyes full of resentment and confusion: "We have been childhood sweethearts for many years, father...father used to love you so much, the emperor personally...personally gave you to me in marriage, I What did you do wrong? Tell me... tell me..."
He didn't know what he had done wrong.
Why did Yan Donghuang's temperament suddenly change?
Even if he said a few words that he shouldn't have said, even if he shouldn't have persuaded her to give up the chance to become emperor, and even if he shouldn't have spoken rudely to her, wouldn't unmarried couples not even be allowed to quarrel?
Why did Yan Donghuang treat him with indifference and disgust, as if he was her enemy?
"You want to know why?" Yan Donghuang raised the corner of his mouth slightly, but the smile did not reach his eyes, "I won't tell you. You can guess and think for yourself, but even if you try to break your head, you may not get it. Answer."
After saying this, Yan Donghuang stood up.
Looking down at him looking as embarrassed as an ant, he suddenly felt ridiculous when he thought of the imperial edict to cancel the engagement.
What is power?
It is supreme and cannot be resisted. It is up to you to kill and kill as you please.
Does she need an edict?
Just like this, Sheng Jing'an was lying here like an ant. Life or death could not depend on her words. Even if she killed him immediately, it could be claimed that he failed to assassinate the prince and was hacked to death by the guards.
Or to be kinder, she met an assassin, and he was eager to protect the crown prince, but was killed by the assassin.
In short, anything that happens in this mansion cannot be known by outsiders at will. Others can only know what she wants others to know.
And after she ascended the throne as emperor and lived in the palace, there were countless unknown things hidden in that huge place. One by one, how could people outside know about it?
Yan Donghuang glanced at Sheng Jing'an for the last time, then turned and left indifferently.
There is no airtight wall in the world.
What's more, what Pingyang Hou and his wife did today is not a secret at all.
After asking the servants of the Hou Mansion, several ministers did not get a clear answer, but they were at least certain that the eldest princess was deliberately placed in the warm pavilion in the East Garden. The warm pavilion is close to the high wall because of its advantage of being at a high place. , it is easier to hear the voices next door.
As for the maids who were responsible for entertaining the young masters, they trembled and recited their words criticizing the emperor's stupidity and the eldest princess word for word. Shilang Du was so frightened that his legs became weak, his face turned pale, and he kept wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
Chen Yunshan looked pale and frightened. He didn't expect that his son, who he always thought was cautious about his words and deeds, would actually say such filthy words.
Which man in the world is willing to share a wife with others?
Is this what he should say? Is it something he can discuss?
What a bastard.
Shen Yunshan felt angry and angry, but also felt scared.
But when I thought about my son becoming mute, I felt a sense of despair.
His daughter was the concubine of King Jing. It was originally thought that King Jing could become the crown prince and successfully ascend the throne as emperor. His daughter could at least be one of the four concubines. From then on, the Shen family became relatives of the emperor.
Unexpectedly, Yan Ming not only failed to become the crown prince, but was demoted to the county prince, completely missing the throne.
His son caused such a huge disaster again.
At this juncture, if you anger the eldest princess who seems to be possessed by an evil god, aren't you asking for trouble?
God is going to destroy the Shen family.
"Mr. Du, what do you think we should do?" Sheng Lanfu, who had always been the wisest one from beginning to end, obviously realized the seriousness of the problem and quickly sought a solution, "It is a capital crime for them to criticize the emperor. If we If you continue to refuse mercy, I wonder if the eldest princess will go on a killing spree?"
Du Shilang looked frightened and nervous, clenched his fists, made a decision in his heart, turned around and walked towards his carriage.
Sheng Lanfu asked urgently: "Master Du, what are you doing?"
"Go to the eldest princess's mansion to plead guilty."
When the other three heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other, with fear and anxiety on each other's faces.
Shilang Du ignored the other three people and quickly arrived at the eldest princess's residence in a carriage.
It was getting dark, and the lights of the Princess's mansion were already on.
As soon as Yan Donghuang came out of the execution room, he heard a report from his servants that Shilang Du had come to plead guilty and ask for a favor from the eldest princess.
Yan Donghuang said: "Bring him here."
Du Shilang tremblingly followed the guards to the main courtyard. As soon as he saw Yan Donghuang's face, he knelt on the ground: "The guilty minister Du Mingfu, please see Your Highness the Crown Princess, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"
Yan Donghuang said nothing.
Du Mingfu did not wait for her to speak, and spoke hurriedly: "The guilty minister did not know the situation today, and he came to the eldest princess's house to ask for someone after being instigated by others. It is the guilty minister's fault, and the guilty minister deserves to die! The guilty minister failed to teach his son well. Let him talk nonsense outside... But please understand, Your Highness, I have never had any treasonous thoughts..."
"Today's incident must have been deliberately instigated by someone. Enyang fell into the trap and was plotted by others. The guilty minister is willing to accept any punishment! If His Highness is interested in Enyang, it would be an honor for him to have Enyang serve His Highness. He only hopes that Your Highness, please train him well, and the guilty person will go through fire and water for Your Highness in the future without any hesitation!"
Du Mingfu spoke very quickly, eager to express his loyalty and apology. He only hoped that the eldest princess would see his sincerity, spare Du Enyang's life, and spare the Du family.
Yan Donghuang naturally heard what he meant.
Minister Du is willing to be loyal to her and willingly let his son stay in the Princess's mansion to serve her, hoping that she will help him and give him the opportunity to show his loyalty.
Yan Donghuang smiled faintly: "Minister Du, don't you think that this palace is heretic and shameless?"
"No! I will never have this idea." Du Mingfu bowed his head and knelt on the ground, "Your Highness is the crown prince, the future emperor, and all the people in the world are your subjects. They should be proud to serve your Highness!"
Yan Donghuang raised his eyebrows slightly: "I am very satisfied with Lord Du's attitude."
Du Mingfu breathed a sigh of relief and continued to express his loyalty: "I will definitely work hard in the future, and I will only obey your orders and will never do anything that will displease your Highness."
Yan Donghuang nodded: "I believe you. As long as Lord Du is loyal and capable, the Ministry of War will be under the control of Lord Du. It will definitely get better and better. "
Du Mingfu kowtowed repeatedly: "Yes, I will do my best to serve Your Highness."
Yan Donghuang turned around and told Changlan: "Arrange two servants to take Master Du to clean up, apply medicine on the wound on his face, help him wash and change clothes, prepare a few light dishes, and let him have a good rest tonight."
"Yes."
"Thank you, Your Highness, thank you, Your Highness." Du Mingfu breathed a sigh of relief and kowtowed repeatedly to express his gratitude. "I dare not continue to bother Your Highness, I will take my leave first."
Yan Donghuang said: "Master Du, take care."
Du Mingfu saluted again and again to express his gratitude, bowed and retreated to the outside of the courtyard, and then dared to turn around and leave.
Feng Yaoguang stood aside: "Minister Du is a man of few words. He is obviously afraid of death, so he quickly swore allegiance to Your Highness. Your Highness believes him?"
"There are countless officials in the court. Do you think all of them are honest and loyal?" Yan Donghuang said in a light tone, "Benefits are the fundamental factor that drives people to be loyal. As long as he is capable, I don't care whether he is doing it for the benefit of the family or because he is afraid of death."
Du Mingfu is a smart man who can immediately distinguish the pros and cons. He changed direction at the critical moment and declared his loyalty because he was afraid of death, but he also set his sights on the position of the Minister of War.
Before he becomes the Minister as he wished, he will definitely do his best to show his ability and loyalty.
