Chapter 825 He doesn’t want to die!
Bu Shengyan: "I also think they are very similar. Sometimes I even suspect they are the same person."
Luo Yechen couldn't believe it.
"That's impossible. Even though they look somewhat similar, there are still huge differences between them. They can't be the same person no matter how you look at it."
Bu Shengyan: "There are always some things in this world that ordinary people cannot understand. Maybe Concubine Xiao is not dead, maybe she just changed her identity and appearance."
As Luo Yechen listened to her words, many plots that could only appear in storybooks immediately emerged in his mind.
He couldn't help but say, "You have a point. Maybe Concubine Xiao is a ghost who has returned to life! According to the story, she must have been unwilling to die, and her soul lingered for a long time. By chance, she got into the body of Princess Nanfeng. In order to resolve her obsession, she traveled across mountains and rivers to Dasheng and reunited with the emperor again. So, the imperial concubine is not a human, but a ghost!"
Bu Shengyan: “…”
Luo Yechen suddenly realized: "No wonder, the imperial concubine not only eats a lot, but also has great strength. She is also very good at fighting. Ten of me can't compare to her. I thought she was a hidden master, but it turns out she is a ghost!"
Bu Shengyan: “…”
Luo Yechen: "Does the emperor know that the imperial concubine is a ghost? After all, humans and ghosts are on different paths. If they continue like this, there will be no good result!"
Bu Shengyan: “…”
Luo Yechen looked at her worriedly: "Now that you know the true identity of the imperial concubine, what if she wants to harm you? The female ghosts in the storybooks like to find scapegoats. What if she sees that you are beautiful and wants to use you as a scapegoat? You'd better not go to the palace."
Bu Shengyan held her forehead and sighed, "You should read less storybooks in the future."
Luo Yechen: "I am worried about you. I would rather believe it than not believe it. Do you understand?"
Bu Shengyan: "Your worries are totally unnecessary."
She walked towards the backyard.
Luo Yechen quickly followed: "How can it be redundant? What if I'm right?"
Bu Shengyan: "You said it was just a possibility, but in fact, it is very likely that we guessed wrong, and she has nothing to do with Concubine Xiao."
She walked into the bedroom, leaned on the couch, and rubbed her forehead with her hand.
Maybe it's because of spring sleepiness, she has been feeling sleepy recently.
Luo Yechen sat beside the couch, took her hand and said, "This is a simple matter. Let's just give it a try and see if the imperial concubine is Concubine Xiao?"
Bu Shengyan yawned and responded casually.
"How would you like to try?"
Luo Yechen leaned over and said something like this in her ear.
Bu Shengyan put down her hand, tilted her head slightly, raised her eyebrows and asked.
"Are you sure this method will work?"
Luo Yechen: "Just give it a try. It doesn't matter if you're wrong. We won't lose anything anyway."
Bu Shengyan thought about it and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I'll give it a try when I enter the palace tomorrow."
Luo Yechen was looking forward to the results of tomorrow's test.
If it weren't for his status that made it difficult for him to enter the harem to meet the concubines, he would have wanted to go to the palace himself to test the imperial concubine.
At this time, someone from the Dali Temple came and said that in the case of Duke Hongguo, they needed to ask the King of England to come over and help give a confession.
Luo Yechen agreed readily.
Bu Shengyan wanted to get up and see him out, but he pushed her back.
Luo Yechen said as he asked the maid to help him change clothes.
"I noticed that you haven't been very energetic these past few days. I'll ask the court doctor to check you out later."
Bu Shengyan felt that she was fine, she was just feeling sleepy. It was normal to feel sleepy in spring, and she used to feel sleepy often. However, she still responded.
"Yes, I will. Be careful on the road and come back early."
Luo Yechen changed his clothes and waved his hand to send the maids away.
He leaned over and kissed his princess on her red lips.
Before she could react, he quickly backed away, pretending to be frivolous and grinning evilly.
"What a sweet mouth you have!"
Bu Shengyan picked up a soft pillow and threw it at his face.
"Get lost."
Luo Yechen caught the pillow, put it back on the couch, and then rolled out quickly.
When he passed by the Mansion of Duke Hong, he deliberately opened the car window and looked outside. He saw that the gate of the Mansion had been locked, and there were soldiers from Jingzhao Prefecture guarding outside, so no outsiders could get close.
After entering the Dali Temple, Luo Yechen finished recording his confession and went to see Duke Hong.
Duke Hong had a special status and was imprisoned in a cell alone.
He was obviously very unhappy about being arrested, and kept shouting and swearing, interspersed with various threats.
Luo Yechen stood outside the prison door, looking inside through the iron window.
"Uncle, long time no see."
As soon as Duke Hong saw him, he rushed to the door and shouted excitedly.
"Your Majesty, you came at the right time. Please let them let me go! I was wrongly accused!"
Luo Yechen smiled and said, "It was the Emperor who ordered your arrest. No one except the Emperor can release you."
Duke Hong: "I want to see the Emperor!"
Luo Yechen: "You can't see the emperor just because you want to."
Duke Hong said again: "Then I want to see the Grand Empress Dowager! She is my sister, she will definitely save me!"
Luo Yechen: "If the Empress Dowager wanted to see you, she would have sent someone to pass on the message. She hasn't shown up yet, which only means that she is powerless. Who made you so bold to collude with the Blood Rain Tower? Did you also know that the Blood Rain Tower sent assassins to assassinate me?"
Duke Hong's eyes flashed: "I don't know what you are talking about. I have nothing to do with Xueyu Tower. I was wronged!"
Luo Yechen: "It's already this late, and you still refuse to admit your guilt. It's up to you. Anyway, the evidence is irrefutable. Even if you don't admit your guilt, you will still die."
When he heard the last four words, Duke Hong suddenly panicked.
He doesn't want to die!
The murderers were done by Xueyu Tower, and the ones who deserved to die were the killers in Xueyu Tower. He just took some money.
At worst he can just return the money.
How did it come to the point where he had to die?!
Duke Hong could not accept this reality. He pounded on the door and shouted at the top of his lungs.
"I want to see the Empress Dowager, I want to see the Empress Dowager!"
He was the only younger brother of the Empress Dowager, and he didn't believe that the Empress Dowager would just watch him die without helping.
Luo Yechen stopped looking at him and turned away.
Inside Changle Palace.
The Empress Dowager has woken up.
She was leaning against the couch, covered with a blanket, the pearl hairpins on her head had been removed, and her long hair was scattered behind her.
There are a few strands of white hair mixed in with the black hair.
Coupled with her pale and haggard face, she seemed to have aged several years in an instant.
Lu Xinyao took the medicine bowl from the palace maid and carefully fed the medicine to the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager only drank two sips and refused to drink any more.
Lu Xinyao advised: "You are sick now, you must take medicine, so that you can get better quickly."
