Huang Qiong, who left Duan Jin's place, thought for a moment and understood Duan Jin's intention when he walked out. The eunuch waiting outside Duan Jin's room guided him to Er Liu's room. Entering the room, Huang Qiong immediately understood that Duan Jin was right when he saw Er Liu hugging each other and actually trembling a little. For them, this place has always been a nightmare.
When he chose Shanchanhou Mansion as his palace, he considered Duan Jin's feelings too much, but ignored their feelings. Huang Qiong stepped forward and held the two girls in his arms. Huang Qiong comforted them for a while before Er Liu's expression softened. Liu Ling, who was in Huang Qiong's arms, said softly: "Your Majesty, we also know that if we stay with Your Majesty, we will never experience the sufferings of the past again."
"I don't know why, but when I walked into this house again, the unbearable things in the past couldn't help but come back to my mind again. If the Guilin County Prince's Palace is just an unforgettable place for the two of us, Suffering. It is just a place we long for but cannot find. But for us, this is a nightmare that will never go away and a scar that is still bleeding."
"Your Majesty, you don't know how much torture the two of us have suffered here? He asked Concubine Duan not to get it, but he vented his anger on the two of us. Poor us, let alone never seeing each other at that time Duan Guifei, I don’t even know who Duan Guifei is. However, I don’t know why, whether it’s me or Xiao Min, every time he faces us, that one doesn’t work.”
"So, he replaced it with something else and tortured us in different ways at the risk of his life. He had a few things made of ivory, and he used those things instead of torturing us every time. He also forced us and held us in his mouth. That thing of his. If you don't do what he says, you will be beaten severely. Even though you force us to do that, we don't know why we can't hate His Majesty."
"And when he visited other women, he also forced us to kneel next to him. He was the best at it. So, no matter who he slept with, I couldn't put on my clothes. The maid forced me to hold her up and kneel on my back. In front of him. After Min'er entered the house, it became the two of us. At the beginning, I didn't know the relationship between us. I just felt that there should be a blood relationship between us. "
"Later, it was when he proudly said it himself that I realized how close the relationship between us was. But at that time, I was even more ashamed and angry. Every time he tortured us with substitutes, he was facing He even asked other concubines to torture us with that thing. The more painful our expressions were, the smoother he could visit other concubines."
"Even when we came to Yuexin, they didn't let us go. They didn't care whether we could bear it or not. We really couldn't stand the torture, so we looked for opportunities to escape. We blended in with the tribute mission that happened to be passing through Shanchan Prefecture. I arrived at Jingzhao Mansion. But I didn’t expect that I would accidentally come to His Majesty’s side again. Only then did I feel settled, and I no longer had to endure those endless tortures.”
"Although the two of us have become his main wife one after another, in this prince's mansion, even a concubine can insult us anytime and anywhere if he wants. When he doesn't need us, he will The two of us were locked up in a separate courtyard and were not allowed to go out of that courtyard. The maids and wives around him were all his confidants. They were not here to serve us at all, but specifically to look after us. "
Speaking of this, Liu Ling shed tears. Over there, Liu Min, who also thought of the extremely humiliating life she suffered here, also shed tears. Different from the Guilin County Prince's Palace, for them, there is more of the family love they long for. But for them, this place is a past where life is worse than death. This trip back to the old place brought up an embarrassing past for them.
Looking at the two sad girls, Huang Qiong felt heartbroken. It was the first time that Huang Qiong heard the two girls mention their past lives. He was shocked by what they said about their past. When Gao Zhisheng did this, wouldn't it mean that in his previous life, he became what ordinary people call the kind of person with mental obstacles, that is, what ordinary people call him? I sometimes go a little too far in certain things.
But compared to that guy, even the secret play in the boudoir is nothing. That's what he calls it, the real thing. How can anyone in this world torture his wife like that? These days, it is common for powerful men to have three wives and four concubines. With a mistress, there are not a few people who neglect the main wife, and there are also those who abuse her. But this was the first time I had ever heard of someone torturing his wife like this.
This guy did this because of his father-in-law. Or is he unable to love Duan Jin, so he transfers all the disappointment and anger in his heart to the two people who are somewhat similar to Duan Jin? Huang Qiong was a little puzzled by this. But there is one thing that Huang Qiong can imagine. If Duan Jin falls into his hands, the situation will probably become even more miserable.
He held the two girls in his arms, kissed their hair gently and said, "That bastard is now in my hands. I will punish him tomorrow, which can be regarded as revenge for you." Starting tomorrow, that person will never be your nightmare again. With me here, those nightmares in the past will never appear in your lives again. Believe in me, believe in your husband."
The two girls nestled in Huang Qiong's arms, feeling Huang Qiong's strong heartbeat, and said nothing quietly. For a long time, Liu Min, whose face was full of tears, suddenly unbuttoned her clothes, hugged Huang Qiong's neck, and kissed her crazily. From time to time, he murmured "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, take good care of me." Liu Ling also lowered his head to serve Huang Qiong while undressing him.
By the time Duan Yan'er and the other three were pushed in by Duan Jin, the three of them had already started to go crazy. But that night, the crazy energy of the two Liu daughters even surprised Duan Yaner. No matter how tired she was, she was unwilling to leave Huang Qiong's arms. And until the early morning of the second day, after returning here, Er Liu, who had become extremely fragile, still clung to Huang Qiong's arms and refused to get up.
It was so rare to see the two girls lying in his arms. However, Huang Qiong was reluctant to let go. He patted the two girls' buttocks gently and said with a soft smile: "If I don't get up again, will I become a faint king who never comes to court early from now on? You will also become a beauty who confuses the king. Trouble. Today I have to deal with the people in the Shanchanhou Mansion, so I can’t delay. I will accompany you when I have time."
Although the two girls were reluctant to part with this body, which gave them a chest that they had never felt safe in before. However, knowing the importance of government affairs, they finally let go of Huang Qiong's hands. He forced his exhausted body to help Huang Qiong change clothes. The two girls looked a little tired. Huang Qiong stopped them and asked them to lie down and continue to rest, while he got up and put on his clothes.
Before leaving, he kissed the two girls one by one and said, "I'm going to handle government affairs, and you guys have a good rest. When Gao Zhisheng is dealt with, if you are willing to go and watch the execution, I will send someone to inform you. If you are not willing, , just have a good rest and gather enough energy to serve me again tonight. However, those people who bullied you in the Marquis Mansion can be left to your own devices."
After Huang Qiong left, Liu Min and Liu Ling looked at each other and smiled in unison. But at this time, the faint sadness in the eyes of the two people could no longer be seen. It's endless, almost unprecedented relaxation and happiness. However, the two of them barely slept all night last night. Unable to bear the fatigue left by the tossing anymore, they snuggled together and fell asleep deeply.
After having breakfast with Duan Jin, Huang Qiong returned to the study leisurely. At this time, the list of the captured men and women from the direct and distant branches of Shanchanhou's house, as well as their status in the house, and detailed memorials have been placed in this room that was temporarily used as a study room. Picking up the memorial, Huang Qiong read it in detail. From this excerpt, we can see that Guo Chen put a lot of effort into it.
The children of the Gao family, those whose deaths in battle can be confirmed, those who were captured, and those whose whereabouts are missing are all clearly marked. Moreover, the distance between these people and Gao Zhisheng and their status in the Hou Mansion are clearly marked. Putting down the memorial in his hand, Huang Qiong picked up his pen and tried to collude several times. But I picked up the pen several times and put it down several times with slight hesitation.
After hesitating for a moment, he sent someone to summon Gao Zhilian. After Gao Zhilian behaved and kowtowed according to Daqi etiquette. Huang Qiong handed the memorial in his hand to him and said: "The crimes Gao Zhisheng committed alone are enough to destroy your whole family. But I am not that kind of cruel king. , knowing that many of them are also innocent, at least not guilty enough to die."
"So, please carefully screen the list on this brochure for me. Those people should be killed, and those people can be spared. Those people can be used by me. Although those people can be pardoned, they cannot continue to stay in Dali Kingdom. . I hope that you can uphold justice and not just use personal grudges to sort out this matter for me. You don’t have to worry, think about it carefully before replying."
Listening to Huang Qiong's words, there was another hidden meaning. Gao Zhilian broke into a cold sweat instantly. He knew that this master had Duan Jin by his side, and now he also accepted Duan Yan'er, so he would definitely not know anything about the Shanchanhou Mansion. If you really blindly identify these people according to your own preferences. It is estimated that when the screening is completed, not only will the title of Marquis Shanchan be lost to me, but also whether I can keep my head will be uncertain.
I have been wallowing in Shanchanhou Mansion for so many years, and I have been hiding for so many years. He knew deeply that in front of the Emperor of Qi Dynasty, he had to be a loyal dog even if he was a dog. Because no powerful person in this world is willing to keep a half-hearted dog. Therefore, he looked at it honestly and made fair opinions on everyone on the list.
It's just that in these years, Gao Zhisheng has been trying to suppress him, and he has never been reused. His status is not low, but he has never had much real power. It seems that his status is quite good, but in fact he has always been unpopular. There was too much resentment and anger accumulated in Gao Zhilian's heart. His comments, in his opinion, were fair, but they were also mixed with a lot of private information.
After receiving the memorial from Gao Zhilian, Huang Qiong picked up his pen and listened to his evaluation of the people on the list. This Gao Zhilian lived a miserable life in Shanchanhou's mansion, but he was indeed a talent. Although he only read the list once, he could clearly describe their abilities, character, relationship with Gao Zhisheng, and what he knew those people had done.
While he was talking, Huang Qiong stood with a cinnabar-filled brush. While meditating, he kept checking the names on the list. And if he makes this move, it means that a person will lose his head. The conversation between Huang Qiong and Gao Zhilian lasted all morning. But for Gao Zhilian's words, even if he acted extremely sincere, Huang Qiong still only believed half of them at most.
