Chapter 365 The Dust Settles(1/2)

The cough came to an abrupt end.

Emperor Chengzhen, who was clearly still in a confused state, suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared at Concubine Pei with his lips moving, but he did not say anything clear.

Concubine Pei looked at him and suddenly burst into laughter. She straightened her waist and stood up straight. She didn't say anything, but just smiled, as if the things in front of her were ridiculous and unparalleled.

Amid the laughter, Emperor Chengzhen's sudden interrupted cough sounded again.

This time, the sound of blood was crying, almost coughing out of the mouth, which was really heart-wrenching.

But Concubine Pei was still laughing, with crystal tears on her eyes, and she still kept laughing. How could she not hold back her smile? After thinking for so long, who had thought about Princess Jianing?

That's His Highness the Princess!

It is the half-sister of Emperor Chengzhen!

No matter who is changed, he will not bring the tenth prince's life experience to Princess Jianing.

Sixteen years ago, Princess Jianing died in the year when the tenth prince appeared in the palace. She originally did not expect Princess Jianing to go to. But just now, she suddenly thought of a point that she had been overlooking. Princess Jianing never married for life and died in the palace. She was only nineteen years old when she died.

She has always lived in the palace, but Concubine Pei remembers that someone had whispered about Princess Jianing's suspected pregnancy.

How could a princess who has never married become pregnant in the palace?

Isn’t there only one man in this harem?

Of course, the rumors of that year were not even spread far away. At that time, Empress Xiao was still alive, and Dayue's harem was not as easy to be tossed. But a year later, Princess Jianing died.

But after more than ten years, Concubine Pei didn't know about those things. I'm afraid that there weren't many old people who were still alive and some things were not to be pursued. Moreover, if this matter was true, it would never be something that could be told at will.

Concubine Pei smiled and wiped away the tears from her cheeks. She remembered that for so many years, on the ninth day of the seventh month, Emperor Chengzhen must have been lucky.

Because she had never thought about Princess Jianing before, she did not contact Emperor Chengzhen's strange behavior. But now when she thought about it, she really had indescribable weird things. What did Emperor Chengzhen do on that day every year?

Fortunately, she had hope for Emperor Chengzhen, so she always paid attention to his movements.

Now she has used it all.

"Your Majesty, you really made me meet with admiration." Concubine Pei wiped away her tears, finally stopped laughing, and looked at him firmly.

Emperor Chengzhen's throat made a horrible sound, but he couldn't even say a word.

"I really hope you can say more at this moment." Concubine Pei showed a strange expression on her face, and she said with a little sadness, "If you don't say it, how could I think of it? You have always been thinking about Princess Jianing over the years."

She said, finally remembering something wrong.

Empress Xiao, the current Empress, and Concubine Yu... She herself, and even the countless women in the harem, could find more or less a place like Princess Jianing. She was not born like Princess Jianing, but she remembered that Princess Jianing was quite similar to her. This probably makes it clear that as the daughter of the Pei family, Emperor Chengzhen, who has not wanted to offend the Pei family at the beginning and offend Yong'an Hou, could also dote on her so much. Is it because of this?

It's a little similar in appearance, but if he has a similar personality, will he always feel that he is talking to Princess Jianing?

Concubine Pei felt as cold as a piece of ice, so cold that she didn't want to touch it.

In addition to these coldness, all she could feel was shocked.

Over the years, Princess Jianing's name has been almost a taboo in the palace and no one will mention it at all.

She never thought it was strange, it was a big mistake!

Is even Eunuch Cao unaware of this matter?

She suddenly thought of Eunuch Cao who was standing aside with them now, but when she thought about it, she was sure that Eunuch Cao must have been unaware of it. If he had known about it, how could he have been with Emperor Chengzhen for so many years, and for several years, he would have been so respected by Emperor Chengzhen? So Eunuch Cao must have not known it. If he knew it, he would have been as clean as those who served Princess Jianing back then.

Now that I think about it, there are doubts everywhere, but before that, she didn't notice anything.

Concubine Pei couldn't help but feel so incompetent and helpless...

"You...get out...get out!"

The person who had been lying on the sickbed for a long time and couldn't say a clear word suddenly started to scold him.

It’s a pity that he is extremely weak. Even if he uses all his strength to shout it out, he still seems so powerless.

Naturally, Concubine Pei would not have turned around and left just because she heard the words "Get out".

After tonight, Emperor Chengzhen was afraid that there would be no way to curse others, but she didn't care at all that he would curse a few more words at this moment. What's more, just now, she had just discovered a shocking secret, so why would she leave at this time?

After seeing Emperor Chengzhen finished saying that, Concubine Pei coughed heavily again, and she deliberately smiled sarcastically, "Emperor, how can you still have the face to tell me to get out now?" As she said that, she suddenly bowed her head and said sternly: "Even God can't see what you did! If you ignore human ethics and do such shameless and dirty things, how can you still have the face to live? Where did you come from to give that incest bastard to the throne?"

A pink face was so red that it was flushed. Concubine Pei spoke hoarsely and her eyes were red.

Emperor Chengzhen could only listen, listened to her yelling and listening to her insulting the tenth prince and his words.

He closed his eyes powerlessly, as if this would prevent Concubine Pei from scolding outside. But this was just a futile thing. He still heard a lot of words in his ears. Even though these things had been so many years, as long as he remembered them, he still couldn't help but feel dirty.

Concubine Pei did not scold him wrong, he was dirty! He was both shameless and vulgar and extremely dirty!

Jianing is his favorite sister.

From the beginning, he liked Jianing the most.

No one knew that he had watched Jianing in the corner countless times, watching her grow up day by day, like beautiful flowers blooming day by day. Pink, purple, red, white, layer by layer, fragrant. It was so easy that people could no longer move their eyes when they just looked at it. There was only one thing in this world that he could not let go of.

When he was a prince, he was inconspicuous, but he was quite inconspicuous.

The brother despised him, and the younger brothers despised him. The sisters also disliked him because he obviously could not be the emperor. Fascinating such people would be of no use to them, princesses. But Jianing was different, and only she would call his brother in a fragile voice.

It was precisely because of these brothers that he couldn't help but covet the dragon throne.

He wants rights, many, many rights!

Everything is fake, only the right is true with Jianing!

But when he really waved his sword and cut off the heads of his brothers, finally stepped onto the dragon throne with his corpses all over the ground, and then stretched out his blood-stained hand to hold her, she turned around in panic and ran away.

Why run away?

Why?

He couldn't understand why she was running away?

It’s obvious that all this is the best, right? Why doesn’t she seem to be happy at all?

So he locked her up.

As if he was raising a bird that was adorable but disobedient, he forced her to trap her in a gold-painted cage that belonged only to him. It was cold but magnificent. He liked her, how could she not like him?!

He is the emperor, and if he wants her, she can only give it to her obediently!

But Jianing is dead.

Just after she gave birth to their baby, she died.

He still remembers what she said when she was dying. She said that even if she was a ghost, she would not let him go... Even if she went to hell, she would have to drag him down to the ground before she could be willing to...

But he waited hard, and after waiting for more than ten years, she had never appeared. He even refused to give him a dream. He was still waiting for her to drag herself to hell, but why did she seem to have forgotten that words?

He could only look at Lao Shi secretly.

But the tenth brother was born with Jianing and his temperament was not similar at all...

He tried to find a shadow of Jianing from Lao Shi countless times, but in the end he was just futile...

"Cough..." Emperor Chengzhen coughed with difficulty, and blood foam came out of his mouth, dirtying his chin and front.

Concubine Pei held her hands, her eyes were cold and cold, and she said, "Let's live, at least live for a long time tonight. It would be a pity if you can't watch a great scene with your own eyes."

The last "some" flipped long and passed through the empty palace and floated out.

It was midnight, and the palace gate that had already fallen into the key was wide open.

The newly promoted Rong Guo Duke Rong Fan led a team of soldiers to the Taixi Palace where the fifth prince was located.

Half an hour later, the fifth prince's body and head were different, and blood stained the Taixi Palace.

"Sir, what should we do now?" The deputy general who followed Rong Fan into the palace looked at the fifth prince in the pool of blood and asked frowned.

He always felt that this matter was inappropriate. He had been enduring it for so long, but he was about to send Princess Liu Zhu to Amobi to get married and deal with the fifth prince. The most important thing is that he actually asked them to take action in the palace. Isn't that strange? But Rong Fanye did receive the emperor's order, and the matter was indeed arranged like this.

However, it was not just the people who felt uneasy, but Rong Fan also felt uneasy.

Moreover, what Emperor Chengzhen ordered was to let them enter the palace tonight and kill the fifth prince in Taixi Hall. He did not instruct the next order, but just let them wait and see.

Although he felt something was wrong, the palace gate was indeed wide open tonight. If it weren't for Emperor Chengzhen's intention, Zhu Xun's imperial guards would have been unable to make a living, how could he let them come into the palace with their weapons?

"Wait a minute." Rong Fan kicked the fifth prince on the ground, feeling extremely disgusted. Following such a person, he was so lazy that he felt disgusted when he thought about it. Fortunately, the matter was finally over, and it didn't take long to continue playing with the wife who married to gain the trust of the fifth prince.

Thinking of his wife who looked delicate and stupid, he couldn't help but think of Ye Kui.

The second lady of the Ye family in the past and Pei Changge's wife are truly unforgettable...

He couldn't help but think that Pei Changge is dead now. Ye Kui is just a widow, and has lost a man at a young age. If he really doesn't dislike him, there will probably be no major difficulties. After all, the Pei family will be able to support it in a few days. When the Pei family collapses, Ye Kui will be even more lonely and helpless. At that time, things will only be easier than what he thought.

But when I thought about it, it seemed that things were not as easy as he thought.

The Ye Kui he knew was definitely not an ordinary ignorant woman. Otherwise, he would not have met only a few times, and he could not help but miss her.

I never forget it... but I really never forget it...

When Rong Fan thought of this word, he felt a little ridiculous inexplicably, so he really planned to smile.

But the curve of the corners of the mouth was not wide enough, and it froze.

Isn’t the figure standing next to Zhu Xun at the gate that was suddenly opened? Isn’t it Pei Changge?!

If it weren't for being so familiar with that person, and the red tears mole under the corner of Pei Changge's eyes, he would almost think that the person he saw was Pei Changge's twin brother Pei Changning! But how could that be? Pei Changge was obviously dead in Cangcheng!
To be continued...
