Ning Xing is restless tonight. [Reading novels with correct chapters,]

The south gate is wide open, and there are crowds of people at the top of the city. From time to time, you can hear people shouting and asking questions.

On the streets, cavalry were galloping back and forth.

"Two traitors are found here!" someone shouted, and then a group of cavalry rushed over. Amid the miserable howls, they dragged out two corpses in a short while.

"Close the door tightly and don't go out!"

the cavalrymen shouted in the streets.

"Is this someone plotting rebellion?"

In Chengguo's mansion, the steward leaned behind the crack in the door to look out, but was kicked by Mrs. Zhang and said, "Go up the wall."

Ma asked standing behind the door.

Zhang was dressed in military uniform and said: "Most likely, the eldest princess has gone out with the army, and the few remaining people are not enough to suppress the rebels. I'm afraid something bad will happen tonight!"

She turned around and said, "All the men in the mansion have gathered together. Who will lead the army? Who?"

No one said anything.

Someone behind raised their hand, and Mrs. Zhang was overjoyed and said, "Come out."

The man came out, but it was Wang Laoer.

Only then did Mrs. Zhang remember that her silly son-in-law was known as the Man-Headed Devil, the type who could scare people to death just by virtue of his reputation.

"Mother-in-law!" Wang Laoer smiled stupidly, "But you want to kill someone?"

Zhang, "..."

"I'll go out and take a look."

Sooner or later the second child will drive this family crazy...the old thief got out.

Come back later.

"There is a rebellion in the palace, and the eldest princess is back."

…

"You put lead in copper utensils and cook food in copper pots every day, and the lead poison is scattered in the food. If you eat in copper bowls and cups, the lead poison is everywhere."

Wang Ju waved his hand, and several servants came over with burdens, which were all filled with copper utensils.

"I don't know anything right now. My father was kind to you, and the late emperor was not kind to you. Your Majesty is young and is quite kind to you. Why?"

Changling asked.

Since discovering this matter, Changling has been thinking about this issue.

He Lianfeng was really good to He Lianhong, and using a woman to take charge of the Eagle Guard was an unusual reuse.

But what she got in return was poisoning.

He Lianhong looked calm. "I was the commander of Yingwei at the beginning. After Emperor Xiaode ascended the throne, he wanted to change the commander of Yingwei."

Like the Mirror of the Tang Dynasty, before Emperor Xiaode, every emperor would change the commander of the Eagle Guard after he ascended the throne.

"In terms of qualifications and ability, I can be ranked third at most in Eagle Guard."

At that time, the Eagle Guard was more powerful than it is now, and there were many good players and talented people in it.

"At that time, my family was preparing for my marriage, and I refused. However, the previous emperor passed away, and the new emperor ascended the throne to replace the commander of the Eagle Guard. So, I pretended to endure the marriage."

Wang Ju thought of what happened on He Lianhong's wedding night.

"On our wedding night, I personally killed the man who liked me."

He Lianhong said very plainly, "To the outside world, I say that I don't want to get married in this life."

Since then, He Lianhong has remained single.

"Your Majesty likes cold and loyal people the most. Not only did he pardon my death penalty, but he also allowed me to lead the Eagle Guard."

"Why?" Changling asked.

"Incorporating lead into copperware, whether it is for drinking wine, water, or soup, it is quite sweet. So I asked someone to find a way to send it to the harem. Some concubines used it, and they really liked it. Emperor Xiaode

I tasted it once I saw it, and then I sent someone a copper bowl and a copper cup..."

Wang Ju said: "That copperware maker was just captured by my men. His confession was your instigation."

"He didn't know why he added more lead. Why did you take him down? Incompetent!" He Lianhong sneered, "Just like this, I watched Emperor Xiaode gradually become terminally ill, and the same happened when I watched the late emperor..."

"Why?" Changling asked again.

"I want to get married. I want to marry the person I love, have children for him, and wash my hands and make soup for him."

He Lianhong's words shocked everyone.

"I have someone I like!" Helian's red eyes were gentle, "I agreed to get married back then, firstly to seek the position of commander of the Eagle Guard, and secondly because I wanted to use that person's life to inform those who coveted me. Don't think about marrying me."

"Who is that person?" Changling asked.

He Lianhong smiled, her expression becoming gentler.

"Lin Ya!"

…

Changling's body shook.

"Lin Ya!?"

Suddenly all the clues connected together.

"It was Lin Ya who ordered you to seek the position of commander of the Eagle Guard."

"No, I did it voluntarily."

Wang Ju was greatly shocked, but a question arose from this, "But Lin Ya is already dead, why do you still want to rebel?"

yes!

Lin Ya's bones were poked and her ashes scattered, and she was left outside to feed the dogs.

Helian Hong said warmly: "But it is his lifelong wish to rebel and change the dynasty. He is gone, but I am still there. I will do it for him!"

Wang Ju suddenly raised his eyes, "You actually wore your hair in a married woman's bun!"

Only then did everyone realize that Helian Hong, who had always had waist-length hair, actually wore her hair in a woman's bun tonight.

He Lianhong nodded. "Tonight, I come as his wife. It's a pity."

Changling suddenly asked: "Then why don't you attack me?"

Changling and Helianhong were on good terms, so it would be too easy for him to attack.

"I have never had children in my life, but I also long to be a mother. When you were young, you liked to follow me and say, Aunt Hong, when will I grow hair as long as yours? At that time, your eyes were so innocent that My heart is trembling." Helian looked at Changling with red eyes.

Changling sneered: "You betrayed your father, but you have to atone for your sin by not poisoning me?"

"Yes! I betrayed Emperor Xiaode." He Lianhong said: "I will also be confused and suffer in pain. When I dreamed back at midnight, I thought of Emperor Xiaode's trust in me. I also..."

He Lianhong raised his hand, his long sleeves slid down, and there were scarred knife marks on his arms.

"Whenever I couldn't bear the guilt, I cut myself."

He Lianhong smiled and said: "Actually, I have been living in pain and suffering these years. I have also thought about atonement. Before the death of the late emperor, Lin Ya once asked me to do something to you. I have almost obeyed his words in this life, but that time , I rejected him."

If He Lianhong had been poisoned at that time and lost Changling's control, and once He Lianchun died, the little emperor would definitely not be able to control the situation. Lin Ya rebelled...

Wang Ju felt a chill running down his spine and was extremely frightened.

"That time, he and I had our first quarrel, and he made a move." He Lianhong covered her face and smiled, "Want to know why I didn't make a move on you? Changling."

Changling nodded.

"Come here!" He Lianhong waved.

"No, Princess!" Wang Ju walked out.

Changling slowly walked over.

He Lianhong put her hands on her lower abdomen and watched Changling approaching.

Changling walked up to her and said, "Can you tell me?"

He Lianhong stretched out his hand, but Changling did not avoid it.

The hand gently touched her cheek, which was a little moist.

The smell of blood permeates the air.

Changling lowered his head and saw a short knife stuck in Helianhong's lower abdomen, and blood was pouring out.

"Because, I have always regarded you as my own child! Changling!"

…

The night is getting darker, and the sound of horse hooves is still heard in Ningxing City.
