Clear and Muddy Loss of Love

Chapter 258

He Yan is heartbroken today

Qi Yan still looked at the Youzhou soldier who was talking, his amber eyes were filled with dead silence, seeing that the other party was at a loss, he took the initiative to soften his tone, and called out "My lord."

Then he said: "This letter... you can put it away, don't make it difficult for our brothers."

Only then did Qi Yan raise her hand to take the divorce letter, and the handwriting in front of her was familiar yet strange. Compared to not long ago, her writing skills have improved a lot.

The content of the letter of divorce is only a few words, but it is clearly written, and the explanation is clear and plain: one is different from the other, each lives a happy life, has nothing to do with the king, and will never see each other again.

It's just a content that can be scanned at a glance, but Qi Yan stared at it for several breaths.

Qi Yan obviously didn't do anything, but several battle-tested Youzhou soldiers felt a burst of inexplicable pressure. They were so pressed that they couldn't breathe, and their feet seemed to be rooted. Qi Yan couldn't move if he didn't speak. of.

Qi Yan raised his head, but there was no expression on his face, his eyes were calm and empty, and he did not know how long it took to gradually regain focus, his lips, which had been covered with a layer of hoarfrost for a long time due to illness, moved: "Does she have anything else to say?" "The voice is also extremely calm, neither sad nor happy, nor mixed with a trace of anger or resentment, like an ordinary inquiry, a sigh rose in the hearts of several Youzhou soldiers: You are really a gentleman like water , How could such a person be a traitor?How could it be a woman?

The two leaders looked at each other, maybe it was Qi Yan's reaction that gave them a lot of goodwill, so they replied: "There is nothing left for you, but Your Majesty ordered us brothers to escort you to a safe place, Then go back to Youzhou directly without returning to Beijing to reply, and a password is issued, we are not allowed to mention it to anyone again."

Qi Yan was silent, the man hesitated for a moment and then said: "Actually something happened in the capital."

Only then did Qi Yan raise her head and asked, "What happened?"

Youzhou Army: "Li Qiaoshan, the former servant of the Ministry of Industry, sounded his grievances and beat drums on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, and surrendered himself in court in court. At the behest of the former princess, he did many evil things that endangered the country... Li Qiaoshan admitted: The person who cooperated with him was you..."

The expected answer came sooner than expected. It seems that what I did in Huainan angered the former princess...

The Youzhou soldier pondered for a while, seemingly hesitating, while still looking at Qi Yan, as if he couldn't believe what Li Qiaoshan said...how could this handsome and handsome Pian Pianlang in front of him be a woman?

Youzhou soldier: "Li Qiaoshan also stole her private seal and many letters from the former princess's study, most of which are... your correspondence with the former princess."

Seeing Qi Yan's painful expression, the Youzhou soldiers who were licking blood couldn't bear it, so they changed the topic and said: "Your Majesty rejected it completely at first, and fought hard with those court elders, Taiwei Gongyang and the Ministry of War The assistant minister and others all came forward to help, but Li Qiaoshan had sufficient evidence. The Inner Court Secretary found the writings and inks of the former princess from the Hongwen Museum, compared the seals to confirm that they were correct, and they brought out your calligraphy from the past... including Jing Jia The papers of the eight-year scientific examination and other documents have been identified, and the handwriting has been identified to confirm that the letters and calligraphy are from the same person."

Qi Yan clenched her fists and asked, "What else did Li Qiaoshan say?" Qi Yan was not afraid of her identity being revealed, nor was she afraid of being revealed to the world as a woman. She was most afraid of...only one thing.

Youzhou soldier: "...Well, Li Qiaoshan said that your real identity is the orphaned princess of Beijing Kingdom, Qiyan Agula. You once secretly served as the third prince Nangongwang's staff, and advised him, burning Nangong's ancestral tomb and The burning of the Weiming Palace was all written by you. Li Qiaoshan even said: The case of embarrassing victory that involved a lot of people back then was also your idea. You killed... and the courtiers speculated that the eldest prince Nangong Ping and King Jing may have been killed by you. As for King Yu Nangongda, your original intention was not to defend the court but to take revenge. The crime of murdering the late emperor is heavy , His Majesty didn’t agree, so some courtiers suggested...suggestion, to open the coffin for autopsy. However, His Majesty rejected it again, the imperial mausoleum has been closed, and it is impossible to open it again. So we can only..."

Qi Yan's body swayed, the blood on her face had long since disappeared, the divorce paper was tightly held in her hands, and the corners were already wrinkled.

The Youzhou soldier sighed heavily: "Actually, I don't know much about it, but many people in the inner court have heard about it. The rumors spread more and more evil, and it is said that you are a demon star who is destined to suffer from cholera. All over the world, this pair of alien eyes is the best proof. Li Qiaoshan has been interrogated and beheaded, and this case is considered closed. We are clearly ordered to arrest you and return to Beijing for trial, Li Qiaoshan The crimes mentioned...Your Majesty admits it all. Let's go, go as far as possible, don't disappoint His Majesty's painstaking efforts. Even... Even if you have grievances, the evidence is solid, and the opinions of the courtiers are almost one side Actually, the day before His Majesty made the decree, Lord Gongyang and Lord Qin had said that they were sick and unable to leave the house. If they hadn't taken into account the emperor's husband and the father of the country, they would have lost the face of the court... Those ministers would like to punish you on the spot ...This is already the best result. Your Majesty has endured a lot of pressure to... Hey... The underside of the car is filled with gold, which is enough for you to spend the rest of your life without worry. Don't embarrass us, let's go Bar."

Qi Yan: "... Please both of you go out first, I want to be alone for a while, is that okay?"

The two turned around and left, and closed the door of the carriage. Qi Yan sat slumped in the carriage, opened the carriage and saw the gold covered in the mezzanine...it was so golden that it hurt people's eyes.

Among the gold, there are a few things that are particularly eye-catching: Qi Yan kneels on the gold and crawls over.

An ingot of old ink, a hairpin that was broken by the jolt of the carriage, a puppet whose fabric has faded, and a rolled paper tube. Open it...there are a few calligraphy treasures left in the world by the shepherd layman , It was all collected, not one piece.

The puppet is a small gadget that Qi Yan gave to Nangong Jingnv in the early years. It was bought on the street, and it cost only three Wen.

Old Mo was the last birthday gift I gave to her as a princess...

The first hairpin was bought in a small shop in the capital city. The style is good. It cost 15 taels of silver at the beginning. After I gave it to Nangong Jingnv, she was immediately recognized as a fake by the other party. Qi Yan wanted to throw it away, but was caught by Nangong Jingnv. While complaining about her poor eyesight, she took it away.

Qi Yan remembered that Nangong Jingnv had never worn it before, thinking about it too: she is the only one favored by the emperor, there are too many rare treasures to enumerate, how could she wear such a shoddy and low-grade hairpin on her head to make people laugh?

Qi Yan almost forgot the existence of this hairpin, until the memories between Nangong Jingnv and Nangong Jingnv flooded back at this moment, looking at the broken part of the hairpin was even more painful than seeing the letter of divorce.

Qi Yan picked up the hairpins and tried hard to put them back together, but every time it was in vain, the hairpin was missing a piece at the break, and it couldn't be put together no matter what.

Looking at the gap, Qi Yan felt very much like herself and Nangong Jingnv, who should have existed as one, but could never go back.

Tears blurred his vision, Qi Yan held the hairpin to his chest, knelt on the coveted gold, and cried sadly and helplessly.

It has been a few months since she confessed, during which Nangong Jingnv revealed several hints of disregarding previous suspicions, but Qi Yan never dared to accept it.

Because Qi Yan knew that he hadn't confessed everything when he was sorry, and he hadn't confessed the most serious and irreparable things.

Qi Yan had long expected that this day would eventually come, and she practiced various rehearsals in her heart almost every day, over and over again...

But when that day really came, it was worse than death.

Qi Yan is not afraid of death, as long as her younger sister and An Da can live well, she is not afraid of death...

Since you are not afraid of death, why haven't you confessed for so long?

Qi Yan herself couldn't figure it out, but at this moment she finally understood, her two fists were pressing on her heart, and inside was an untouchable, unconsolable pain.

It turned out that what she was subconsciously worried about was this kind of ending. She was afraid that Nangong Jingnv would regard her as a stranger. She was afraid that once she said it, she would not only hurt the other party's heart, but also...lose her forever, forever.

Qi Yan's cries were depressing and shrill, leaking out of the carriage, reaching the ears of Youzhou soldiers, and their sadness also reaching their hearts, the sound was moving.

One of the Youzhou soldiers whispered to the people beside him: "Brother, look at her crying so sadly, could she really be a traitor? I don't think so from her reaction just now."

The other person lowered his voice and replied: "Where is it your turn to think that this kind of thing is your turn? Your Majesty has convicted, and the fake is also true."

"But... Didn't Your Majesty ask us to send her away, and rewarded so much gold, maybe it was to protect her? After all, there is so much pressure in the court, and the crowd is so angry, it is possible to avoid the edge for a while. We will take her back after the case is settled."

The other person sighed heavily and shook his head: "I don't think so. How can such a crime of treason and regicide be rehabilitated? Even if there are other secrets behind sending her away, once convicted, there is no possibility of her being convicted again." rehabilitated."

"That's right, it's a pity... Hey, tell me, is she... a man or a woman?"

"Say a few words less, what does it have to do with you?"

……

Qi Yan had cried enough, her knees were so painful that she lost consciousness, she sat on the gold and rested for a long time, wiped away her tears, folded the letter of divorce and put it in her arms, Qi Yan didn't dare to take a second look for fear of her own death. Tears burst again.

After straightening her appearance, Qi Yan pushed open the car door.

Youzhou Army: "Dian... Is there a place you want to go, my son? We will escort you to the destination. If you are not feeling well, you can take a rest first."

Qi Yan sniffed, beckoned and called Qian Tong over.

Qian Tong: "Master."

Qi Yan grabbed the saber at Qian Tong's waist, drew it out and laid it across his neck.

She knew that she couldn't grab the Youzhou Army's weapons, but Qian Tong's would always be able to.

Everyone panicked and gathered around one after another: "My lord!"

Qian Tong: "Master?!"

Qi Yan grasped the handle of the knife with both hands, and lowered an inch to her neck: "I want to go back."
