Chapter 183

At midnight, Hua Yang fell asleep in Chen Jingzong's arms.

Her long eyelashes were still wet, her head was resting on Chen Jingzong's strong arm, and she was holding the hem of his shirt.

The long princess is usually so particular, but tonight she doesn't mind the smell of tung oil on his head, and she doesn't have the extra strength to ask him to help clean up her body.

The light in the inner room was still on, and Chen Jingzong silently looked at the person in his arms.

Qi Jin framed him, but he was not in danger. It has been three years, and it is normal for her to be angry, but she would not cry so sadly.

Chen Jingzong had already guessed that there were some secrets hidden in her body, and she probably could predict some things in advance.

Therefore, in her prediction, he should have died in Wuduo Mountain.

She had seen that scene before she went out with him tirelessly, and she was so sad and frightened when she relived that ambush.

A thousand sweet words, ten thousand times of tenderness and consideration, can't compare to these tears she shed for him.

Chen Jingzong didn't like romantic things, and he never wanted a gentle and caring wife.

He just likes this little royal princess who is on a blind date with him, likes being stared at by her and scolded by her, likes how she obviously shows disgust and is willing to do those happy things with him in the end.

Willingness is because of affection, it is enough to understand each other, it is not necessary to speak out.

When Hua Yang woke up, it was already bright outside the window.

Chen Jingzong was gone, and there was a faint smell of tung oil in the tent, but she was clean and comfortable, and her middle coat was changed.

On August 26th, there will be a court meeting this morning, perhaps my younger brother and all civil and military officials are discussing a thorough investigation into the case of Qi Jin collaborating with the enemy.

Qi Jin did such a thing, how much did the uncles, aunts and grandmothers know?

Hua Yang was in a complicated mood, so he went into the palace after eating something casual.

When he arrived at the Palace of Heavenly Purity, Hua Yang learned that his mother had actually moved to the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

The younger brother grew up gradually, and the Compassionate Ning Palace has already been renovated, as long as the palace people are asked to move the utensils used by the queen mother, people can live in it immediately.

Hua Yang went to the Compassion Palace again.

Empress Dowager Qi just came back from the morning court not long ago, and she just changed into regular clothes. Her look was a bit haggard, which was enough to prove that she didn't sleep well last night.

"Pan Pan is here, come and sit."

Empress Dowager Qi was sitting on the warm couch by the window, beckoning to her daughter.

The palace people retreated respectfully.

Hua Yang held the queen mother's hand: "The son-in-law told me last night, are you sad?"

Empress Dowager Qi: "The main thing is to feel sorry for your grandmother and uncle. They are all honest people. They have divided their duties all their lives, but when they grow old, they are burdened by your cousin."

Everyone praised her as a virtuous queen, and Empress Dowager Qi has always demanded herself and restrained the people around her. She was strict with her son, and the same was true for her natal family.

For the past twenty years or so, her mother and elder brother have kept themselves safe, and her nephew, both civil and military, has brought honor to the family, but she never expected to become a disaster for the family.

Hua Yang was silent for a moment, and asked, "How do you and your brother plan to deal with this matter?"

Empress Dowager Qi looked out of the window: "The head of a family collaborating with the enemy and treason is a serious crime for punishing the nine clans. Your cousin colluded with the enemy alone, and the family didn't know about it. Sentencing him to Ling Chi, and the Marquis's deprivation of his title and demoting him to a commoner, is enough to thank the world."

There are many kinds of death penalty, choose the most suitable punishment according to the crime committed by a person, a glass of poisoned wine, three feet of white silk is considered decent, beheading is common practice, beheading in half and lingering are felonies.

Hua Yang's body felt faintly cold.She had only seen Ling Chi's death penalty in books, but she never thought that the first real example of it was her own cousin.

Hua Yang was only terrified of this kind of death, but he didn't sympathize with Qi Jin.

Not to mention that in his previous life he killed Chen Jingzong and almost the entire Daxing Zuowei's more than 5,000 soldiers, even the more than 5,000 sons of Jin Wu Qianwei who died unjustly under his hands in this life, Qi Jin should also be punished by Ling Chi.

No matter how painful he is, the dead soldiers will never come back to life, and the wounds in the hearts of thousands of blood relatives behind them will never heal again.

Jin Yiwei's death row.

Qi Jin calmly cooperated with the interrogation by Commander Liu Shou of Jin Yiwei.

Liu Shou asked him if he had evil intentions because he was jealous of Chen Jingzong's limelight, and Qi Jin understood that both the Queen Mother and Emperor Yuanyou wanted to take Hua Yang out.

Qi Jin paused, and answered yes.

Indeed, it has nothing to do with Hua Yang. From the beginning to the end, she didn't know anything, didn't understand his intentions, and never fell in love with him.

It was he who wanted to marry her, it was he who resented his aunt's power to control the entire Marquis Mansion, it was he who was dissatisfied with the marriage that his grandmother and mother had arranged for him, it was he who kept holding his breath in his heart.

He couldn't take Hua Yang by force, he couldn't defy his aunt openly, he could only attack Huayang's son-in-law.

Whether Chen Jingzong or other men, whoever marries Hua Yang, whoever gets what he can't get, will become his eyesore.

But in the end, he still had to submit to his aunt's power.

He honestly cooperated with Liu Shou's cross-examination and did not reveal his ambitions for Hua Yang, so the fate of everyone in the Qi family would be better.

He is doomed to die, so why bother his family.

Qi Jin just had a little extravagant hope, he was going to die, would Hua Yang come to see him?Even if it's just to scold him, it's always good to have a look at her before dying.

Qi Jin has been waiting.

He waited for the scolding and tears from his grandmother and parents, waited for the night to fall and the sky to brighten again and again, waited for the Jin Yiwei to take him away to be tortured, and waited for the knives that fell on him one after another, but he didn't wait until the end.The person you want to meet.

Hua Yang didn't feel sorry for Qi Jin, but that was her cousin she had known since she was a child. After Qi Jin was sentenced at the end of August, her grandmother's family moved to Qi's hometown.It's like nothing happened, not affected in any way?

Chen Jingzong asked for leave on purpose and accompanied her to live in Hongfu Temple for two days.

Hua Yang didn't want him to worry, so he pretended to let go, and asked Chen Jingzong to work in the guard first.

But as soon as Chen Jingzong left, Hua Yang became depressed again.

She also learned from Chen Jingzong that the empress mother also went to the court meeting on August 26, and issued an edict of guilt in front of all civil and military officials, because she and the Qi family failed to teach their nephews and nephews well, and caused trouble.Thousands of soldiers died unjustly on the battlefield.Since she has sinned against herself, the queen mother has no face to listen to the government on behalf of her younger brother. From now on, the younger brother will be in charge, and she will move back to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to cultivate her self-cultivation, and will no longer interfere with the affairs of the court.

Hua Yang felt sorry for his mother, except for being too strict, her mother had almost no shortcomings, but being implicated by Qi Jin stained her reputation!

"Long princess, the big long princess sent someone to deliver the invitation card."

Wu Run found the garden, and saw his own long princess lying listlessly on the bench next to a field of rose bushes that had mostly withered.

Hua Yang glanced at him lazily: "You read it."

Wu Run nodded, opened the invitation, read it quickly first, and then imitated the tone of Princess An Le, smiled and said: "Good niece, my aunt knows that you are not happy recently, and specially asked the theater troupe to arrange a good show, hurry up."Come here quickly, my aunt has prepared tea, fruit and wine for you."

Don't look at Eunuch Wu not being angry and pretentious when controlling the servants of the eldest princess's mansion, but when he needs to make the eldest princess happy, Eunuch Wu is also very good at playing tricks.

Hua Yang: ...

Chaoyun and Chaoyue both laughed and booed, "It's still the Eldest Princess who loves people."

Hua Yang was infected by this joyful atmosphere, and because he didn't want to disappoint his aunt's kindness, he set off.

Princess An Le sent a little eunuch to wait for her niece at the door. As soon as Hua Yang arrived, the little eunuch nodded and bowed and led her towards a water pavilion.

Hua Yang didn't think much about it until she saw a piece of white gauze hanging in the water pavilion from a distance, gently blowing with the autumn wind in early September, and her aunt was sitting behind the white gauze in a gorgeous long dress, enjoying and listening to the music,Happiness is like a fairy in the sky.

Some memories from his previous life flooded into his mind, and Hua Yang suddenly felt like retreating.

Eldest Princess An Le ran out with a smile, grabbed her niece and went to Shuilila: "It's already here, why do you want to leave?"

She was also a little puzzled, her good show hadn't started yet, could it be that the niece could predict the future?

Hua Yang was pushed by his aunt onto the rosewood carved Arhat bed behind the white gauze.

Princess An Le clapped her hands, and two strong guards with their upper body exposed came in.

Hua Yang is not interested in this kind of good show, but at this time, she doesn't want her aunt to watch her jokes.

Therefore, Hua Yang became generous and calm instead, and casually watched the two guards start to fight.

The sturdy bodyguards are actually similar in body. Hua Yang tried to identify the faces of the two, only to find that she didn't remember the faces of the two guards arranged by her aunt in her previous life. Naturally, she couldn't be sure if the two in front of her were the two she had seen before..

"How about it, looking at such a beauty, have you forgotten all the bad things?" Princess An Le approached her niece, teasing with a smile.

Hua Yang: "Can this be called beauty? My aunt's vision is getting worse and worse."

Princess An Le: "It's not my job, it's because you were spoiled by Chen Silang's face, but then again, no matter how handsome he is, you've been watching him for almost seven years, and you still haven't gotten tired of it?"

Hua Yang has always been stubborn, and according to her past temperament, she would probably say that she didn't pay much attention to her son-in-law at this time.

It's just that in her previous life she could only sit next to her aunt, fantasizing about Chen Jingzong in front of two strange guards, but now, Chen Jingzong is still fine, she can watch whenever she wants.

After a moment of silence, Hua Yang smiled: "I will never get tired of watching it in this life."

An Le big long princess: ...

She held her niece's shoulder in disbelief, and pinched her slick face: "Are you our family's pan? You must not be possessed by some spirit, right?"

She watched her niece grow up. Apart from making the elders happy, when would she ever say sweet words to her peers?

Hua Yang just pushed his aunt aside in disgust: "Don't block me from watching the show."

In the evening, when Chen Jingzong came back from the guard, he found Hua Yang sitting by the window, holding a scripture book in his hand, and beside him was a palm-length brocade box.

Seeing that he noticed the brocade box, Hua Yang said, "My aunt gave it to you."

Chen Jingzong: "Why did you suddenly think of giving me something?"

Hua Yang lowered her eyes. The aunt's exact words were that she invited her niece to watch the guards. She felt a little guilty for her niece and son-in-law, so she gave a small gift.

Of course, Hua Yang couldn't tell Chen Jingzong, he just said: "I also gave it to me, you just took it with you."

Chen Jingzong understood that she was in a bad mood recently, and the eldest princess loved her so much, so she sent some gifts to make her niece happy.

Chen Jingzong sat next to Hua Yang, opened the brocade box, and found a dagger inside.

Hua Yang moved some distance away.

Chen Jingzong smiled while taking out the dagger: "Can I still hurt you?"

Hua Yang snorted: "Clumsy, who can rest assured."

Chen Jingzong stepped back a little, and pulled out the dagger from the scabbard. Before he could check whether the blade was sharp, a folded letter paper fell out of the scabbard.

Both husband and wife were stunned.

Chen Jingzong's expression was complicated: "What is it?" The Princess Dachang is very rude, so don't make trouble for him!

Hua Yang had already taken the letter paper, unfolded it, and after looking at it for a while, his entire face was flushed red!

Chen Jingzong's heart moved, he put away the dagger and threw it aside, and snatched back the letter before the long princess tried to tear it up.

Hua Yang rushed over, Chen Jingzong put his arms around her to keep her immobile, held the letter in the other hand, and stretched out to look.

It was written on the letter paper: Nephew and son-in-law, Panpan is not happy, and your serious methods don’t work, so I arranged for two handsome and strong guards to take off their shirts to show her the masculine beauty of a man, but I’m sorry for you, give you a precious dagger that cuts iron like mud, so don't blame your aunt.

Chen Jingzong: ...

Handsome, muscular, with his shirt off, masculine beauty!

Clutching the letter into a ball with one hand, he looked down at the long princess who had given up struggling.

The long princess's face was red, she didn't know if she was angry with her aunt, or she felt ashamed that her son-in-law broke her good deeds outside.

Chen Jingzong smiled but said: "Okay, no wonder you are in a good mood today, so you stole the meat outside."

Hua Yang glared at him: "I just glanced at it a few times, don't make random arrangements."

Chen Jingzong: "How many times did you look? Where did you look? Am I not as good-looking as them, or are you tired of looking at others and insist on seeing others?"

Hua Yang closed his eyes and mouth, and ignored him.

Chen Jingzong took off his outer robe in twos and threw away the unlined clothes inside, then pulled back the escaped long princess, pressed her into his arms and faced his chest: "Look, if you think something is not good-looking, I will change it."Not yet?"

Hua Yang hit him.

Chen Jingzong couldn't force the long princess to open his eyes, so he had to lift her up and hug her, gnashing his teeth next to her ear: "I'm sorry for your unhappiness these days, I didn't touch you, you're lucky, you actually ran outside to flirt with me behind your back!"

Hua Yang hit him on the mouth.

Chen Jingzong grabbed her wrist and pressed her onto the couch. After a while, the long princess could only let him talk nonsense, and she could no longer speak complete words.
