Her left hand was resting on her lower abdomen.
Pregnant people should not drink alcohol.
But Li Yuanda urged her: "Drink it, you can't keep it anyway, why do you still care about it?"
Deng Linlang's already heavy heart was even more frightened: "What do you mean? Tiger poison can't even eat its seeds -"
Her tears, which had been temporarily stopped due to fear, broke out again. Her voice trembled, with a hint of pleading: "This is your child too."
Li Yuanda said indifferently: "I don't lack a son."
Deng Linlang stared at him and said nothing.
Li Yuanda asked her: "Do you still want to return to the palace?"
Deng Linlang looked hesitant, showing a bit of thinking.
After all, Ji Yunzhao is not her enemy who destroyed her family...
However, before she could finish thinking about it, Li Yuanda laughed mercilessly and said, "Are you really thinking about it? Stop dreaming. I don't want you to go back if you want to! What if you go crazy and kill me one day?" I’m so bored, where can I go to reason with you?”
Deng Linlang: "..."
The fist is hard!
After Li Yuanda said this, he became serious: "The Deng family is in trouble because the royal family owes it to the Deng family. Now that I only have you left alive, there is no need to be too unkind."
"I will not allow you to enter the palace again, nor will I let the royal heirs wander outside. You can choose for yourself. Abort the child. Remarry if you want. You can be alone if you want. If you have lived enough, I will not commit suicide if you want. Stop it."
Deng Linlang rubbed the corners of her clothes with her fingers and said hesitantly: "Prince Yong, and Zhang Liu..."
"Oh, they are dead," Li Yuanda said succinctly: "Is there anything else?"
Deng Linlang knelt down and said, "They committed all kinds of mistakes because of me. If you really want to kill me, just kill me and let them go..."
Li Yuanda said: "This is not the same thing. It has nothing to do with you. Just get up, kneeling is useless."
He had a smile on his face, but there was an unquestionable air in his brows.
Deng Linlang couldn't help but stand up, put her hand on her lower abdomen, and said reluctantly: "Maybe it's a daughter..."
Li Yuanda asked her back: "If he were his son, could you be so cruel as to strangle him to death? The long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain."
Deng Linlang closed her eyes, tears streaming down her face.
She said: "I know."
Li Yuanda pushed the wine glass in front of her again: "Drink it, it's a farewell drink. We will never see each other again."
A drop of hot tears suddenly fell into the wine glass, and Deng Linlang quickly raised her hand to cover it up and drank it all in one gulp.
She asked with red eyes: "Is he gone?"
Li Yuanda smiled and nodded. After having enough wine and food, he stood up and said, "Then, let's say goodbye."
Just when he was about to walk out, Deng Linlang suddenly stopped him.
Li Yuanda turned back to look at her.
Deng Linlang looked a little embarrassed and asked him uneasily: "I want to know, I want to know if he has..."
Liu Che evil-mindedly encouraged her in the space: "Say no and let her give up! Really, how come all of these people take their feelings so seriously!"
At this moment, Li Yuanda thought a lot.
I think about the emperor as the original owner, Deng Linlang as a person, the past between the two people that can come to mind, and the words I said to Deng Linlang today.
Finally, he nodded.
I laughed at his stupidity and his naivety, but I couldn't deny his sincerity.
Even if it's stupidly sincere.
So be it.
Li Yuanda turned his back to Deng Linlang, waved his hand casually, and strode away.
Chapter 76
Li Yuanda left, but Deng Linlang still stood there in a daze.
He is no longer here...
After learning the so-called truth from Concubine Shu, she was depressed about it and did not show her face for several days. He once put down his government affairs and went to visit, but she always refused because he was not feeling well. In the end, he just said it through the curtain. After a few words, he was fooled and left.
She didn't know at that time that that was actually the last time she saw him.
Not even a farewell!
Deng Linlang fell to the ground and cried bitterly.
At this moment, the door opened again from the outside, and it was not Li Yuanda who came in, but the attendant who had served him before.
He did not rush Deng Linlang, nor did he show any impatience. He waited until she had finished crying, and then said politely: "Mrs. Deng, please, the Holy One has arranged a place for you. Stay here until now." I will send someone to take you away from the capital. My wife has been wandering for many years. It has been a long time since I went to pay homage to my relatives at the grave."
Deng Linlang remained silent for a long time, and finally said: "If you are interested, please thank the Holy One for me."
The attendant responded with a smile.
…
When Li Yuanda returned to the palace, he sent people to the Queen's Palace to deliver the decree, deposing Concubine Shu as a commoner and moving her to the cold palace.
As an emperor, he doesn't really care about the intrigues in the harem, but if the concubine extends her hands to the emperor, this is absolutely not okay!
Concubine Shu secretly ran to tell a concubine who was extremely favored by the Holy Spirit that the emperor was your exterminator and enemy - what did this stinky bitch want to do? !
In other words, Deng Linlang is extremely talented and his brain circuit is different from ordinary people. If it were a normal person, he would kill me in a matter of minutes? !
I only deposed you as a commoner, but did not give you death, which is already very kind-hearted!
The queen was shocked when she heard this decree. After all, Concubine Shu was able to become one of the fourth concubines, so she was obviously favored. But now she was thrown into the abyss...
After pondering over and over again, the queen went to Xuanshi Hall in person to ask for an audience.
Li Yuanda summoned her.
But I heard the queen say softly: "After I received the order, I was shocked, but I don't know what my sister did wrong to make the Holy Emperor so angry? If I don't know the reason, I will be punished." , Firstly, I’m afraid that Concubine Shu will not be convinced, and secondly, it will also make many concubines in the harem uneasy.”
Li Yuanda spoke concisely and comprehensively: "Concubine Shu was involved in a lot of things in the recent fire in the palace."
The queen stopped and stopped asking further questions. Instead, she added: "It's just that the concubine was deposed as a commoner. This has never happened in this dynasty. It's not that I want to plead for sinners, but that I am a lady." A concubine gives birth to a prince, and even if she is rude, she still has to take the prince's face into consideration..."
Oh, Concubine Shu also has a son!
No wonder they secretly get involved and cause trouble.
Li Yuanda pressed Ruyi against his cheek, with a hint of contemplation between his brows, and sighed inaudibly: "Concubine Shu is guilty and must not be punished. As for the prince - he is also my son and heir. Naturally, I won’t treat him badly. Forget it, don’t rush to belittle Concubine Shu, let me think about it for a while.”
Seeing that he was undecided, the queen stopped persuading him and talked about some palace affairs before standing up to leave.
…
The Imperial Prison, which used to be deserted and solemn and where officials were forbidden to enter, is now more lively than a vegetable market.
Led by Prime Minister Yan Chong, all the officials arrived at the gate of the imperial edict. After recording their names, they went to the cell where King Yong was imprisoned.
Imprisonment and imprisonment refers to cases that can only be investigated with the emperor's order. Those who are lucky enough to be imprisoned are all high-ranking officials. Officials of low rank are not qualified to enter!
With such a premise here, the conditions of the cells in the imperial prison are of course much better than those in ordinary prisons, not to mention that King Yong is the younger brother of the current emperor, and it is even more impossible for Li Yuanda to treat his younger brother harshly on his own territory. , leaving a talking point to the outside world.
Yan Chong and Taifu Liu came to the cell where King Yong was staying one after the other. They glanced at the decorations inside and frowned in unison. Without saying a word, they retreated outside and joined the officials waiting outside. Started to mourn for King Yong.
King Yong didn’t realize what was going on at first——
When he was first imprisoned in the prison, he was not in a panic. He just saw that the days passed by and he was never accused of any crime, which made him feel at ease. Then he looked at the people in the prison. He was served with delicious food and drinks, and he knew that he had received orders from his royal brother.
In this case, what else does he have to fear?
At this time, the two old men named Yan and Liu led the people outside to cry so much that King Yong realized that something was wrong. Just thinking about it made me break into a cold sweat.
This is a story imitating Emperor Wen’s killing of his uncle!
These two old men wanted to force him to commit suicide with words!
Even if he doesn't commit suicide, I'm afraid he will become a joke and a bug in the eyes of the world, and he will never be famous again!
King Yong was shocked and angry, and he had some unconcealable fears in his heart: "I am the legitimate son of the late emperor. How dare you, my younger brother, dare to do that?!"
No one paid any attention to him.
There was loud crying outside the prison.
King Yong shouted a few more times, but still no one paid attention. After several repetitions, King Yong became cold all over.
He felt that he was not in prison at the moment, but lying in a cold coffin sleeping peacefully.
Listen, isn't there someone crying for him outside the coffin? !
King Yong was like a prey caught in a trap, roaring anxiously and uneasily in the predicament of certain death. He had a vague premonition, and tried desperately to comfort himself in his heart:
Will not!
Brother Huang will definitely protect me!
We are brothers. Before my mother died, she repeatedly told him to take good care of me!
The mourning lasted until the third day, and King Yong stayed in the prison for three whole days with almost no sleep, until his eyes were black and bloodshot. The handsome and graceful prince in the past was now ferocious. Like evil spirits.
In the end, the jailer who went to deliver meals did not dare to talk to him. He carefully put down the lunch box and ran away as if running for his life.
This dog slave actually dares to look down upon me like this!
King Yong stood up and staggered towards the lunch box - he was not actually hungry, but he felt that he had to do something.
Otherwise, you will really be driven crazy!
It was already evening, and the mourning officials had already dispersed, but even so, the cries full of curses and ridicule seemed to be ringing in King Yong's ears.
He covered his ears in pain. At this moment, he heard the sound of the key hitting the lock...
somebody is coming.
