Chapter 51

Xie Qingyun never thought that these past events would see the light of day again.

She had a cold expression, trying hard to suppress herself on the verge of breaking out.

The next second, he was pulled into his arms.

"You are not wrong." Tianseng said.

"You don't need to torture yourself."

"Since Xue Chuan chose to end his life when he was fully capable of killing everyone in the royal family, it means that he has given up from that moment on."

"Your father and brother will not blame you."

Tian Monk's gentle words hit his ears, like the spring breeze thawing, and the expression on Xie Qingyun's face gradually began to break.

Revealing the vulnerability and pain beneath the coldness.

Tears finally fell down.

She cried for a long time, as if she wanted to vent all the pain that had been accumulated for ten years.

The monk didn't stop him, he just held her tightly.

Xie Qingyun finally got tired of crying, so she raised her head and looked at him with tearful eyes.

"Is it really too late to let go?" she asked.

"Yes." The monk nodded affirmatively.

Then he held her face with his hands and kissed her gently.

Xie Qingyun was stunned for a moment, but when she came to her senses, she quickly turned her back and pinned the Heavenly Monk beneath her.

As the kiss gradually deepened, lust began to spread between the two of them.

Tianseng maintained his last shred of rationality, kept his head away, and avoided Xie Qingyun's further offensive.

His evasive action also helped Xie Qingyun regain some sense.

He wasn't angry at being rejected, he just pinched Tianseng's face.

"Be my royal husband, Issei."

"I promise not to kill indiscriminately in the future." She said seriously.

Tian Monk looked at her, the lust in his eyes had not completely faded away, and his eyes were deep.

"Give me some time."

Xie Qingyun showed a gentle smile: "Okay."

Then he let go of Tianseng and got out of bed to change clothes and go to court.

Tianseng sat by the bed and looked at her: "What do you plan to do with the Xue family?"

Xie Qingyun paused slightly, and then said after a while: "The Xue family is dead."

"What if not?"

Tianseng had no intention of hiding anything and quickly informed Xie Qingyun about his meeting with the descendants of the Xue family in prison and his subsequent illness.

After listening to this, Xie Qingyun was silent for a long time, and then asked in a hoarse voice: "You tell me this, are you not afraid that I will kill that Xue family member?"

The Heavenly Monk looked at her quietly: "If the poor monk doesn't tell me, he may not be able to continue to live."

Runliu said that the man was in a very bad condition and could die at any time.

So whether he said it or not, there would be no worse consequences.

Xie Qingyun nodded: "Okay, I'm going to court."

did not answer him.

The Heavenly Monk looked at her leaving back and stood with his eyes lowered, as quiet as if he was integrated with the heaven and earth.

..................................................................

After two months, Xie Qingyun finally went to court again.

But because the ministers had been beaten the day before, the morning meeting on the second day was not as lively as expected.

Only Liu Yan from the Ministry of Household Affairs frowned and complained that the Gu family and his son were spending a lot on military pay and were suspected of being deducted.

However, it was not the first day that everyone knew that the Gu family and his son were as fond of money as their lives, so no ministers agreed with this matter.

Only Liu Yan still chattered endlessly, complaining about the empty treasury.

Xie Qingyun comforted Liu Yan with a few words and left the court early.

She said she wanted to meditate, and then avoided the palace people and took Runliu to the imperial prison.

When they arrived there, several Jin Yiwei on duty were playing cards.

The emperor had not killed people for a long time, and even the prisons were deserted. They had no prisoners to try, and they were really idle.When Xie Qingyun came, the few Jin Yiwei who were playing cards had not yet reacted, and they had not stopped playing and touching cards. It was not until one of them saw the panic on the face of Mr. Qianshi running over in front of him that he realized that something was wrong.

A person who was about to lose quickly stretched out his hand and knocked down the cards on the table, and pulled the others who wanted to scold him to their knees.

"See Your Majesty." They said in unison with their heads lowered.

Xie Qingyun hummed, not taking these people to heart, and walked inside.

He just took a few steps and turned back.

He looked at the Jin Yiwei who had just pushed the card: "I'm willing to admit defeat, you have to give me money."

"..."

Yunyang, who hurried over, heard this nonsense.

Xie Qingyun looked back at Yunyang and asked, "Where is that person from the Xue family?"

Yunyang was startled. He didn't know if His Majesty remembered it or if the opportunity had arrived as Eunuch Run had said earlier.

However, seeing that His Majesty's expression was the same as before when he was ill, he still spoke cautiously: "In the prison, if Your Majesty wants to see other people, I can lead the way."

After getting the affirmative answer, he took Xie Qingyun and Runliu to the imperial prison.

The imperial prison has four floors, divided into two floors above ground and two floors underground.The further down you go, the more important prisoners are locked up.

Yunyang took them directly to the deepest part of the second underground floor, a dark cell.

This floor is almost empty.

Because the prisoners locked here usually don't live long.

Yunyang ordered people to light up a few more lamps, and the cell was gradually illuminated.

The person locked inside was unkempt and sitting in the corner with his knees in his arms. He didn't know whether he was asleep or awake.

He didn't even look up when he heard the sound.

As if dead.

A jailer wanted to step forward to wake up the young man, but was stopped by Xie Qingyun.

She didn't allow anyone to make a sound and just stood quietly outside the cell, staring at the young man.

After a long time, he asked Yunyang: "Is he a descendant of the Xue family?"

Yunyang responded: "It was born in the second room's outer room, so it was missed during the house raid and later searches, and it was only discovered recently."

Xie Qingyun nodded and continued to look back at the young man.

The prison is dark and lightless all year round, and it is easy for people to lose their sense of time here.

Xie Qingyun was not in a hurry, waiting for the young man to wake up on his own.

I don't know how long it took, but the boy finally started to move slowly.

Dark eyes slowly emerged from under the messy hair, and then chapped lips.

His eyes were unfocused, probably because the light in the cell was too bright today, and he was squinting slightly.

"What's your name?" Xie Qingyun asked.

The boy was a little confused, but he still remembered that he couldn't say his name to others, so he shook his head gently.

"Do you want to go out?" Xie Qingyun asked again.

The young man glanced at her, flinched, and did not answer. He only subconsciously hugged himself tighter.

Yunyang said: "Your Majesty, he is a little mentally disturbed right now, and it is very possible that he cannot understand what you are saying."

Xie Qingyun didn't seem to hear her: "Open the door."

Yunyang did not dare to disobey the emperor's order, but this matter involved the emperor's safety, and he was afraid of something happening.

While hesitating, Xie Qingyun already took the key and opened the cell door.

"You go out and wait for me." She said.

"Your Majesty!" Yunyang was anxious and wanted to persuade him.

Although the young man is now weak, no one can tell how much offensive power he still has.

They are all out, who keeps the emperor safe?

But before he could speak, Runliu had already walked out first.

Even Runliu left, so Yunyang naturally didn't dare to say anything more.

After a worried look, he finally led the people out of the cell.

 I’m so tired, so I’ll do more for today.Let’s work hard to update twice tomorrow…
