Jingzhao Prefecture Prison.
Qu Li was staring at Lan Ting leisurely.
"You said you were pretty. As long as you could leave the palace, you could find an ordinary person who understands your feelings and marry him. Why did you let yourself be fooled by Xiao Ci?"
Lan Ting smiled bitterly.
She was hit on the head with a teacup by Emperor Kangdi that day. Because she was the murderer of the Queen Mother, her wound was only hastily bandaged.
She was imprisoned in the Jingzhao Prefecture prison, where the cell environment was very poor. The wound on her forehead became inflamed, causing her to have a fever, and she was extremely weak at the moment.
If Qu Li hadn't come, she would have died of fever tonight.
"I entered the palace when I was little, and I haven't seen many men."
"What you said is very interesting!" Qu Li put away the silver needles and medicine, "Prince Chen, the Fourth Prince, and the Emperor, aren't these men?"
In her opinion, Xiao Ci must have done something to move Lan Ting's heart, otherwise, how could she be willing to die for Xiao Ci?
Lan Ting pursed her pale and dry lips and said nothing.
"You loved him so much that you were even willing to give up your life for him, but what did he do? He was simply using you, didn't you know?"
"It is my great fortune that someone like me can help him!"
Qu Li:!!
She really hopes that there will be a fool like this who will do anything for her to help her!
Since no amount of persuasion would work, Qu Li didn't plan to waste any more words.
"If I could get you to marry him, would you be willing?"
Lan Ting suddenly looked up, and a gleam of light flashed in her dim eyes, but soon the light disappeared.
"This servant is not worthy of the glorious Second Prince!"
Qu Li curled his lips.
Xiao Ci's personality, which attracts both men and women and doesn't care about gender, really has nothing to do with Feng Guang Ji Yue!
Plus, she fell into the toilet yesterday. She wouldn't want this disgusting thing even if it was given to her for free.
Qu Li squatted down and looked into her eyes sincerely, "I just want to ask you, do you want to?"
Lan Ting supported her weak body and kowtowed solemnly to Qu Li.
"I thank Miss Qu for your kindness, but I have made up my mind."
"Do you know what two words I particularly want to give you?"
She suddenly remembered a saying - never try to wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep!
Lan Ting is like this now. She is determined to die and thinks that this is the best way to pay for the man she loves.
In fact, in Xiao Ci's eyes, everything she did was just stupid!
"idiot!"
After saying these two words, Qu Li took his things and left.
Mo Wenqing stood guard at the door, "Miss Qu, is she okay?"
Lan Ting is the key figure in the whole case, and nothing must happen to her, otherwise, Princess Ye Hua will never be able to clear her suspicion.
"Lord Mo should be more alert tonight. If any unexpected situation occurs, this thing may be able to meet the emergency needs." Qu Li handed him a red pill.
Mo Wenqing trusted Qu Li's medical skills very much and guessed that this pill would definitely be able to detoxify.
"Don't worry, Miss Qu!"
"Also, if something does happen tonight, I hope Lord Mo will follow what we agreed upon before."
"good."
As night fell, Qu Li stood in front of the window, picked up a pen and wanted to write a letter to Feng Yi.
However, although I have countless words in my heart, when I really start writing, I don’t know what to write.
Finally, she drew a picture, folded it, and found the deputy leader.
"Can you help me pass a letter to Feng Yi?"
The Vice Pavilion Master smiled like an auntie, "Of course! If the Fifth Prince reads the letter you wrote to him, he will definitely be very happy."
Qu Li smiled and said, "That's troublesome!"
The deputy leader did not choose those carrier pigeons, but chose an eagle.
Feng Yi rode non-stop all the way towards Southern Qi.
However, heavy rains have continued in the south for several days, causing mudslides and blocking the road. After several days of clearing and unblocking, the road is only now passable.
As he was riding at full speed, he suddenly heard the cry of an eagle in the sky.
Looking up, I saw a Saker Falcon circling in the air.
His fingers dropped to his lips and he whistled.
The Saker Falcon leaned over and rushed towards him, landing steadily on his shoulder.
He took out the secret letter, unfolded it and took a look at it, and his brows became unusually gentle.
There was nothing written on the letter, but there was a heart drawn on it and a red bean in it.
It is said that red beans represent lovesickness, and Li'er is thinking of him!
This realization dispelled the fatigue in his body and the depression in his heart.
If possible, he would like to be with Qu Li right now.
I don’t know what the situation in Beijing was like after he left.
After putting the red beans on his wrist, he dismounted and found a branch.
Due to the heavy rain for several days, the branches were very wet and difficult to ignite.
Feng Yi was so anxious to reply that his brows were almost twisted into vertical wrinkles.
Throwing the branch aside in annoyance, he took out a dagger that could cut through iron like mud and scratched his fingertips.
He dyed the heart drawn by Qu Li red, wrote a few words next to it, put the letter back in place, and touched Haidongqing's head.
With the cry of an eagle, the Saker Falcon spread its wings and flew towards the capital of Dagan.
…
Lanting started to have a fever again in the evening.
She hugged herself and huddled in the corner.
Suddenly she heard footsteps, she raised her eyelids and saw a jailer.
He opened his mouth, but because his throat was hoarse, no sound came out.
The jailer's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He walked towards her and suddenly grabbed her neck with his hands like iron clamps.
Lan Ting's breath was taken away and her face was full of panic.
"Is it... the Second Prince?"
She spoke these short sentences with great effort.
The jailer's voice was stern and cold: "Don't worry, the Second Prince will remember your kindness! From now on, every year on this day, the Second Prince will have people burn more paper money for you!"
Lan Ting was extremely weak at this time and was no match for the jailer.
He kept kicking with his feet, and gradually stopped struggling.
The jailer untied the belt from her waist and wrapped it around her neck, creating the illusion that she had committed suicide out of fear of punishment. After making sure that there were no loopholes around her, he quietly left.
Mo Wenqing rushed over with his men, and soon, the news of Lan Ting's death spread to the palace.
Emperor Kang could only temporarily postpone the marriage between Xiao Xian and Rong Yehua.
Rong Wei was furious and actually brought people with him, intending to break into the palace and take Rong Yehua back to Fanyi.
Emperor Kang was furious and ordered Rong Wei to be confined to the post station. Ostensibly, this was to make him reflect on himself, but in reality, he was worried that he would rebel, so he trapped him in the capital.
When Xiao Ci got the news, his heart finally settled down.
He looked at his attendant, his eyes tinged with doubt. "You said that the fourth brother has been going to the Taoist temple a lot recently. He wants to ask Taoist Xuanji to come out and pray for rain for the people in the north?"
"Yes! However, I heard that Taoist Xuanji did not meet the Fourth Prince."
"Oh! You've plotted against me, so I'll plot against you back!" His eyes were gloomy, and every word he said was as cold as the coldest days of winter. After a brief pause, he said, "Go prepare the carriage!"
