Da Suining

Chapter 177
"I have evidence."

"Father, don't listen to her nonsense. I didn't kill those people at all. How can there be someone to prove it?" Guo Cheng was a little impatient. He was always impatient. Holding on, he seemed to have swallowed a piece of red-hot coals, only to feel white smoke rising from his mouth as he spoke: "Father, my son did not kill anyone."

The emperor was thoughtful.He bowed his head and was silent for a while.

None of the princes dared to speak.He just looked at Guo Cheng quietly.

The eldest prince had no expression on his face, but seemed to be docile.

The Fifth Prince had a gloating look on his face, as if he didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement.

"Second girl, you said that there is a witness for him to kill him. Who is he? Where is he?" The emperor raised his head, his gaze was like a torch.

"Her name is Rainbow, and she's just outside."

"Let her come in and talk."

"Yes."

Rainbow is really in Huguo Temple, but Lu Yu is taking care of it all the time.

After Lu Yu's recuperation, he gave her the baby black pill he hid, Caihong's body recovered quickly, her complexion became better, her face was rosy, her lips were not so pale, but the arrow wound on her body was deep , It takes time for the wound to heal, so she has to be careful when she moves, sits and lies, the wound will still hurt.

According to Prime Minister Suining, it was Guo Kai who arrested her child and killed her husband, Caihong wished she could tear Guo Kai up, but Guo Kai is the prince, how could she easily see him?If it wasn't for Xiang Suining's arrangement, maybe in this lifetime, Caihong would never meet Guo Kai again.

"You go to the emperor to testify against him for murdering his life, maybe the emperor will ask, and he will tell the whereabouts of the child." Xiang Suining explained Rainbow in this way.

So the rainbow got up before dawn, and the meal was useless. He just drank the soup and medicine to hang his spirits, and rushed to Huguo Temple.

Lu Yu was worried, so he personally escorted her, fearing that something might happen to Rainbow.

The two waited at the Huguo Temple, listening to the sound of Buddhist music, wooden fish, and chanting scriptures, watching the cigarette smoke rising into the air, mixed with the crowd of people participating in the water and land ceremony. Rainbow and Lu Yu are dressed in ordinary clothes, which are not eye-catching.

When the emperor and others went to the living room, Lu Yu was afraid that Rainbow would be tired, so he picked up a large flat rock and asked her to sit down.

"Master Lu, tell me, why did those people kill my man?"

"This..." Lu Yu is usually glib, but he can't answer this question. Guo Cheng is a strong man with no shape. If he goes hunting in spring, even a white fox that is pregnant and ready to give birth, he will shoot it to death with an arrow. To kill someone, maybe a random pinhead-sized reason is enough. Of course, maybe he is very poetic, and he can kill someone for fun without a reason.

It can only be said that the dead were unlucky.

"Master Lu, my fellow countrymen and those who fled with me are also dead."

"Oh."

"Mr. Lu, have you seen my little treasure? Do you remember Xiaobao? My little treasure is a good boy. When we didn't come to Qingcheng to escape, we lived in the country. When it rained in spring, we would There are mushrooms coming out of dead branches. There is a big temperature difference between day and night. There are several cracks on the top of the mushrooms. When the sky is bright, I will straddle the basket to pick mushrooms. My little treasure will not sleep or stay in bed. Picking up mushrooms, he didn’t go home until mid-afternoon, and he didn’t feel tired at all. If steamed buns were needed at home and a fire was needed, he would just sit in front of the stove and stuff firewood into the stove.”

"So nice."

"Sometimes he is also mischievous, for example, he wets the bed at night, afraid that I will see the joke, so I point to the big yellow dog in the yard and say that it is the dog that wets the bed. Sometimes the family improves their lives by killing an old hen and making soup to drink First, give him a chicken leg to satisfy his cravings, he opened his mouth to take a bite, but he couldn't take it, so anxious that he cried with the chicken leg in his mouth, his nose was bubbling from crying."

amount.

Talking about Xiaobao, it seems that Xiaobao is right in front of him, laughing and crying when the rainbow is happening, and he can't help himself.

Lu Yu took a deep breath. It was cold, and the treetops were covered with clouds and mist. This woman's heart should also be white and cold.

Lu Yu didn't know how to answer her words.

Follow her words and say that Xiao Bao is good, afraid that she will get deeper and deeper and unable to extricate herself.

He didn't say anything, as if he was cold-blooded again.

"Young master Lu, tell me, where will the second prince take my little treasure after taking him away?"

"This……"

"I heard." Cai Caiqiang pulled himself together and said cautiously: "I heard that if the empress in the palace is unable to bear children and wants to have a child, she will forcefully hug a child from the folk to make up for it. There are also such cases on the stage. Stories, for example, the civet cat for the prince... Mr. Lu, you said that the second prince took my child, did he give it to some empress? Or sold my child to someone who has no children?"

Thinking of this, Rainbow has a glimmer of longing and hope.

Lu Yu sighed, but did not interrupt her.

But her idea obviously didn't work.

Changing the civet cat for the crown prince, and carrying a private child into the palace to be the prince, I guess you dare to act on the stage. You must know that once it is discovered, it will be a crime of deceiving the emperor. I will definitely not be able to keep my head. The heads of the whole family Whether it can be kept or not depends on the emperor's mood.

It is even more impossible to abduct and sell children to others. Ordinary people, who cannot afford a big price, do not need Guo Kai to abduct and sell them in person.It's just a humiliation of his prince's status.

And those who pay a lot of money, the wealthy families usually have no children, and they will blame their wives and concubines for not being able to have children. Anyway, there is a lot of money, so just marry a woman with a lot of money, even if you want to raise a child from outside , will also be sneaky, the quieter the better, how can you let Guo Wei abduct the child?Guo Kai has never been a man of words, if he is asked to do this, isn't that telling the whole world that the child is not his own?

"Master Lu, if someone announces that I will go to see the emperor, what should I say?"

This question, Lu Yu can answer.

"You just tell the truth, how Guo Kai killed those people, how did you arrest your child, and tell the emperor in detail, of course, the more you speak vividly... I mean, the more you speak Miserable, the worse you say about Guo Kai, the more moved the emperor may be, and when the time comes, you will show mercy and your little treasure will come back."

"Is that so?"

"Of course it's true. After you find Xiaobao, you will live with him and raise him well. He will respect you when he grows up. It's a pity, alas."

"What a pity?"

"It's a pity that Xianger, Xianger is really getting more and more beautiful the longer she grows. You don't know. When I first met her, she was with a silly girl. She was very fierce. Now it's really a big change for a girl, but her fate It's hard enough."

"Why did Mr. Lu say that? Isn't Miss Xiang the first daughter of the Xiang family? Father is the second rank of the dynasty?"

"Yes, her father is the second rank of the dynasty, and she was born as a concubine daughter, but the concubine daughter rides on her head all day long? It's easy to be favored by the emperor, good guy, I'm going to promise her to Guo Kai Well, just wait until the emperor is in a good mood, and when he opens his mouth, he will be Guo Kai's daughter-in-law. Do you think it's scary or not? The place seven or eight miles away from the palace is now building a mansion for Guo Kai. When it's finished, Guo Kai has also reached his age, so Xiang Er will have to weep and marry him."

"No way?"

"Why not? People often say that flowers are planted on cow dung. It's a pity that Xiang Er's flower is gone. If Guo Kai is cheaper in the future, do you see Guo Wei, who is like a person who loves fragrance and cherishes jade? Xiang Er always Go against him and marry him one day, wouldn't you fall into the pit of fire? Guo Wei wants to avenge both old and new hatreds."

The draft blew in.

Rainbow shuddered.

She was not wearing thin clothes. Because of her frail body, Ah Shui specially brought a jacket for her to wear.

Maybe it's a cold heart.

Rainbow lowered her head and grabbed her loose trouser legs, and stopped talking.

A little eunuch came from the direction of the living room, and the one following the little eunuch was Mingzhu.

"Let's go along." The little eunuch's face was flat, and he couldn't see joy or sorrow.

Mingzhu nodded towards Rainbow.

"I'm going to see the emperor." Rainbow gave Lu Yufu a blessing: "Thank you, Doctor Lu, for treating me."

Rainbow was so polite, Lu Yu became cautious, quickly stood up and took a step back, bowed his hands and bowed his head: "It's just a little effort, don't take it to heart, you go to the living room, I'll wait for you here, I will take you back to Lu's mansion to drink medicine later. "

living room.

I thought that Caihong, a civilian woman, was very timid, and when she came in front of the emperor, she would be frightened and her legs would go weak.

Unexpectedly, she entered the living room neatly and walked towards the emperor, but it was Lu Ying who was beside the emperor who stopped her: "Whoever is, just kneel there and don't approach the emperor."

Rainbow knelt down with a "plop".

She was wearing a jacket, and her body was a bit bulky. She tried her best to straighten her body, as if she came with great faith.

As soon as Guo Cheng saw the rainbow, his forehead began to sweat.The knife hanging from his waist trembled.

A lot of people were killed that night, blood flowed like a river, only this woman, she ran away.

After chasing for more than ten miles, I still couldn't find it, as if it disappeared out of thin air.

I didn't expect her to be fatal and still alive.

Sure enough, if you kill someone, you have to cut the weeds and get rid of the roots, otherwise there will be endless troubles.

Beads of sweat flowed down Guo Cheng's neck.

Fifth Prince Guo Yi stared at him and laughed at him softly: "Second Brother, what's wrong with you? Second Brother is sweating profusely in such a cold day, but is he sick?"

Guo Cheng ignored him.

"Second brother, you seem to be very afraid of this woman. Why, do you two know each other?"

"How do I know her? Don't talk nonsense."

The emperor adjusted his robe, sat there upright, and asked the kneeling Rainbow: "I heard that you are a witness? What happened, please tell me in detail, and I will make the decision for you."

"Your Majesty's lesson." Rainbow prostrated himself on the ground: "I was originally a refugee from a foreign country. I lived with a group of relatives hiding under a bridge hole outside the city. Sometimes I begged for things, sometimes I begged for some money, and I also went fishing. , grow vegetables, life is passable, but a few days ago, a group of people rushed in front of us, killed my relatives, and killed my man... They also robbed my child... Until now I have not Seeing my child, I don't know whether he is dead or alive..."

"Is there such a thing? How did you survive in the first place?"

"I...they thought that if they caught the child, I would catch me without a fight. They didn't want me to run away from the grass...I was also injured, and I was shot in the back, and almost died." Rainbow said, He unbuttoned the jacket, turned his back to the emperor and loosened the clothes, revealing the wound on his back, the bloody wound made the emperor frown: "Put on your clothes."

"The life of a civilian woman is cheap, and it is not a pity to die. It is just my child. He is still young. He has not lived a good life for a few days since he was born. He ran around with me, hid in Tibet, and now he is in the hands of others. , I don’t know if I can eat enough, wear warm clothes? Will I be beaten? The woman begged the emperor to find the child for the woman. Even if the woman died, she could close her eyes.”

"Then do you remember what the person who captured your child looked like?"

Rainbow nodded.

Guo Kai's heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of his throat and was about to jump out of his mouth.

"Xiang Suining, where did you find this woman? Did you do it on purpose?" Guo Cheng whispered to Xiang Suining beside him, "If you tell her to shut up now, I can still spare you."

Xiang Suining ignored him.

The fifth prince, Guo Yi, smiled and ate a piece of snack brought by the little novice, his mouth full of candy: "Second brother, what are you whispering to Miss Xianger, let me listen too."

"roll."

"You really want to get out, but looking at your posture, you can't get out." Guo Yi pinched another piece of snack and put it in his mouth: "Second brother has the kung fu to kill me, why don't you think about it, how will you deal with the father in a while."

Guo Cheng's back was drenched with sweat.

He had never felt so scared.

"Come and see, which one here is the murderer."

Rainbow raised his head, a pair of red eyes staring at everyone in the room.

Some people are calm and composed, some are curious, and some are waiting to see the excitement.

When seeing Guo Cheng, Rainbow couldn't help but clenched his fists.Her nails were so long they almost penetrated into her flesh.

She saw Xiang Suining, and she looked at her gratefully.

"Rainbow, tell the emperor exactly."

"The woman...the woman doesn't know what to say to the emperor."

Xiang Suining was taken aback.

Thought she was too cramped.

The emperor was also a little surprised: "What do you mean by that? Who here killed your fellow countryman?"

"The person who killed my fellow countrymen is not here."

"Oh? Really?"

"really."

"You read it right? You don't have to be afraid. I am the emperor. With me, no one dares to do anything to you. Just tell the truth."

"Back to the emperor, the women are not mistaken, the people here are not the ones who killed my fellow countrymen, nor the ones who took my children away."

"Can you see clearly?"

"I see clearly." Rainbow fell to the ground and kowtowed heavily to the emperor.

Xiang Suining stared blankly at Rainbow's back, and suddenly felt that he didn't understand this woman a little bit.

She didn't understand why Rainbow said that.

The murderer was clearly in front of her eyes, why did she avoid talking about it?
Guo Yi was obviously disappointed, "cut" and threw the dim sum back on the plate.

Guo Kai was sweating profusely, so he had the time to take out his handkerchief to wipe his forehead. Seeing Guo Yi staring at him, he breathed a sigh of relief and smiled and said, "Old Five, are you disappointed? You, you can't miss me." Order, but I don't care about it with you, what's so delicious about the dim sum here, I'll ask you to have wine with me next time."
