25 Burning paper in the middle of the night King Ning did not die
The third day when everyone arrived in Yuzhou.
Early in the morning, Ayu brought back a piece of news from outside——
"Huan Chengyao, King Ning of Dayuan, was demoted to Wangzhou to guard the border city for killing the King of Jin."
Yunzhi and Lu Yunsheng were both shocked when they heard this. Even Ayu, who had brought the news, exclaimed that he didn't expect it, but Pei Shun didn't have any look of surprise on his face.
Seeing him looking like he had everything under control, Yun Zhi's bizarre suspicion became more certain.
Ayu sighed: "I didn't expect that Emperor Dayuan was quite merciful. King Ning killed someone, and he just asked him to leave Luozhou. King Jin's death was too unjust."
Yun Zhishen agreed and nodded repeatedly.
The emperor didn't kill him, but he raised an army to rebel. No matter how you looked at it, he was repaying kindness with hatred. In the end, he ended up like that, and I'm afraid he deserved it.
"No!" Lu Yunsheng suddenly explained: "Your Majesty once swore an oath in front of the Huan family's imperial mausoleum that he would never punish Prince Ning for anything in this life! Prince Ning has never left the imperial city since he was a child. Wangzhou He may not be able to withstand the bitter cold in that place, I'm afraid the punishment this time is too severe!"
When Yun Zhi heard this, he couldn't help being shocked, and he suddenly realized that no wonder Prince Ning dared to harm the prince because he had the gold medal for immunity from death!
She sighed secretly. She was curious about why the emperor would swear such an oath, and was afraid that Lu Yunsheng would notice something strange, so she had to hold it in secretly.
Fortunately, Ayu asked for her.
Lu Yunsheng struggled for a moment and then said: "This matter is not a secret. Everyone in Luozhou City knows it, so it doesn't hurt to tell you."
"Actually, the emperor's current throne was given by King Ning, so on the day he succeeded to the throne, he swore an oath in front of the royal mausoleum of his ancestors. As long as King Ning did not do anything rebellious, no matter what mistakes he made, he would not do anything wrong. Investigate and reduce penalties.”
this……
Yun Zhi felt like his eyes were about to pop out of his head. It turned out that there was such a relationship between the emperor and Prince Ning!
But isn't Prince Ning the emperor's biological son?
Did the late emperor directly pass the throne to his grandson?
Yun Zhi was full of doubts, but A Yu stopped asking questions.
She could only continue to hold it in secretly.
After holding back for a day, September 30th arrived.
It was the day that Pei Shun said that King Ning was going to rebel and be executed.
For some reason, Yun Zhi couldn't fall asleep early in the morning before dawn. She got up and walked in the yard for a long time, but she couldn't help but think of Prince Ning.
Thinking of the only night I had contact with him.
There was no hint of cruelty in the figure who was completely nestled in the quilt. Didn't Shinsui also say that she slept in the front hall that night, and it was Prince Ning who carried her in.
Perhaps knowing that a person is about to die, he can't help but recall some of his good qualities.
She couldn't help but begin to wonder, had Prince Ning really rebelled?
After standing in the yard and thinking for a long time, Yun Zhi went out to find a candlelight shop and bought a lot of paper money. He planned to burn some paper money for her husband, who didn't even know his appearance.
She also specially asked the shopkeeper to write a sutra, which is used for salvation. It is said that people can become a good person when they are reborn in bliss.
Although this matter is superstitious, it is the only thing she can do at the moment.
In the middle of the night, after everyone fell asleep, Yun Zhi quietly went out carrying a baggage.
Sneaking around, Yun Zhi found a quiet and deserted riverside and laid out all the things he bought during the day.
After calculating the time, it was almost past midnight, so Prince Ning should have been executed in front of Chonghua Palace.
Yunzhi sighed silently and began to light the paper money.
"Brother Ning Wang... Although we have never met, we are still considered to be husband and wife... I still hope that you can be a good person in the next life... Actually... if you can be born in our time... I hope you can be a good person in the next life... People who contribute to society and the country..."
She was mumbling and burning up, when suddenly, someone fell from the sky and stamped out her paper money.
Yunzhi was stunned for a moment, then immediately raised his eyes and glared at the man.
But when he saw the man's appearance clearly, he was stunned.
"...Xiao Yi?!"
"Are you back from Luozhou?"
Yunzhi looked at the young man in white in surprise, and even had a slight suspicion that he was hallucinating.
She stood up subconsciously, and the paper money piled on her clothes scattered in the wind. The scene was extremely strange for an instant.
Xiao Yi picked up the corner of his clothes, looked down at the paper ashes at his feet, took two steps back, frowned, and looked over with curiosity: "Who are you...in the middle of the night to pay homage to?"
Yun Zhi Zhang picked up a few pieces of paper money and came back, then knelt down and stretched out his hand to pick up the paper dust that he had trampled away.
"Prince Ning." She whispered, then raised her eyes to look at him, suddenly feeling a little frustrated, "But you stepped on them all!"
Xiao Yi blinked twice, feeling extremely confused in his heart, "You... who taught you to burn paper money for living people?"
Yun Zhi saw that his face was full of confusion, and after thinking about it, he realized that it was right, Luozhou was thousands of miles away from here, and the news probably hadn't spread to Luozhou City yet!
Then she leaned close to his ear and whispered: "Prince Ning was killed by the emperor."
"..." Xiao Yi fell silent.
After a while, he asked again: "Who told you this?"
Yun Zhi thought that he and Pei Shun had always been on good terms and this matter was not a secret, so he answered honestly: "It's Mr. Pei."
Xiao Yi fell silent again, and after a long pause, he secretly gritted his teeth and put on a very kind smile, "He lied to you."
Yun Zhi was dubious, "You mean... Prince Ning is not dead?"
There was a hint of panic in her eyes. Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes slightly, "You... want him to die?"
"That's not true." Yun Zhi shook his head, "It's just that if he hadn't died..."
"I heard that he was demoted to Wangzhou. Princess Ning must go with him! I've probably been discovered. Maybe in two days the news of Anguo's punishment will come! In two days, maybe Someone is going to catch me..."
She frowned deeply and said sadly.
Xiao Yi sighed silently, suddenly and mysteriously leaned into her ear, and whispered: "Don't worry, when I came back I heard that Princess Ning had followed Prince Ning and his party to Wangzhou."
Yunzhi didn't understand what he meant for a moment, and just frowned and looked at him with confusion in his eyes.
Xiao Yi explained: "I heard that Prince Ning did not suspect that Princess Ning was fake. I think Brother Shenjun has made arrangements, so you don't have to worry about this anymore."
Yes, why did she forget that there is Lu Shenjun! He knew that she was not in Luozhou. As the second son of Duke Anguo, he would not just watch his family being implicated. Maybe he had arranged everything long ago.
It turns out that she has been worrying blindly these days.
My heart suddenly became enlightened for a moment.
The person suddenly became lively, and Yun Zhi couldn't help but raise his hand and patted Xiao Yi's shoulder twice, his eyes sparkling: "Xiao Yi, you are such a lucky star! You always bring me good things. information!"
Her compliment came out of nowhere.
The tips of Xiao Yi's ears turned slightly red. He raised his hand to touch his nose and coughed unnaturally, "It's not bad..."
A matter of concern was solved in this way, and Yun Zhi was free to really focus on the person in front of him.
"By the way, didn't you go back to Luozhou? How could you come back so quickly?"
She was a little curious about how he managed to travel thousands of miles back and forth in these three to five days.
Xiao Yi groaned, raised his hand to cover his mouth and yawned, his voice suddenly tired, "Maybe it's because I didn't stop much along the way."
Twelve lightning horses were destroyed in five days.
"Just riding a horse?" Yunzhi was surprised and a little disappointed at the same time, "I thought you could fly!"
Just like the heroes in martial arts movies, one step can make a leap half a mile.
She asked again: "Then how did you find Yuzhou?"
Xiao Yi's eyes drifted away and said, "That's all thanks to Brother Pei."
It turned out that Pei Shun secretly sent him a message.
Yun Zhi said something and started packing his things to go back.
Xiao Yi looked at the scattered paper money with complicated eyes, and couldn't help but persuade: "Otherwise... just don't ask for it..."
These were originally burned to the deceased, but now that we know that the person is not dead, it is naturally unlucky to keep these.
Yun Zhi hummed and became a little angry again, "It's all that Mr. Pei's fault! I wasted so much money!"
These things are not cheap!
Xiao Yi nodded in agreement and began to fight, "Let's go and settle the score with him!"
Yun Zhizheng had this intention.
That day when she heard Pei Shun speak so confidently, she actually believed what he said. She was about to ask him why he lied to her!
But it is already late at night, and Pei Shun may have already gone to bed, so we have to wait until tomorrow!
Yun Zhi took Xiao Yi to their residence. On the way, he thought about Qingyi Villa again and asked him, "Have you ever returned to Qingyi Villa during this journey?"
Xiao Yi seemed very sleepy, yawning again and again, and even walking unsteadily.
Hearing this, he replied casually: "Not yet."
Yun Zhi only knew that he didn't know anything happened at home, and he suddenly felt guilty and guilty, and didn't speak again for a while.
Xiao Yi glanced at her secretly, and seeing that she looked uneasy, she stopped yawning, coughed lightly, and said, "But my uncle sent me a message..."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his waist and handed it to her.
"Well, don't worry about it."
Yunzhi took the piece of paper, and there were indeed a few words written on it. She read it carefully for a long time and let out a long sigh of relief.
"That's great!"
She finally laughed. Fortunately, nothing happened, otherwise she wouldn't know how to face him.
It seems that Pei Shun has been lying to her!
While talking, the two of them had arrived in front of a courtyard.
It was late at night, and Pei Shun was still awake.
He was sitting alone in the yard, with a jug of wine in front of him and two wine glasses in his hands.
He raised his glass to the moon far away, as if he was mourning someone.
At this moment, two white figures pushed the door open and came in.
Pei Shun looked up and was stunned.
"Master Pei!" Yun Zhi ran over as soon as he saw him, "Xiao Yi said that Prince Ning is not dead! Nothing happened to Qingyi Villa!"
Pei Shun put down his wine glass, looked over her shoulder, and landed on the face of the young man who was walking towards him, and suddenly smiled with a low eyebrow.
He nodded, "Yes, he is right."
Yun Zhi frowned, "Then you...were you really lying to me before?"
But why?
Yun Zhi couldn't figure it out.
Pei Shun didn't know what to explain, so he just said: "I'm sorry."
Yun Zhi wanted to continue asking him why, but Xiao Yi stopped him.
"Zhizhi." Xiao Yi stood behind her and called softly, but his eyes fell on Pei Shun's face, "Brother Pei and I have something to say. You should go back to your room and rest first."
There is a secret between Pei Shun and Xiao Yi. Yun Zhi has known it for a long time. She is not interested in their secret. Since Xiao Yi doesn't want her to hear it, she is naturally sensible.
But I still couldn't help but muttered: "It's too late, we can't talk about anything tomorrow..."
Xiao Yi heard it and smiled gently, as if coaxing her: "It will be over soon."
Yun Zhi said oh, turned around and walked towards the room.
Before closing the door, she heard him shout again: "No peeking!"
Who cares?
Yunzhi snorted and closed the door.
Pei Shun watched the person enter the room, frowning slightly before he could look back.
A soft sword suddenly wrapped around his neck.
"Su Pei, is there nothing in this world that you can miss?"
