The First Empress - Chapter 331
Chapter 331 The Death of Lan Shuyu
Two days later, Linglong went back to the prison to look at Lan Sou Yu. These jailers all looked at Linglong and acted. The Lan Sou Yu Clan was already empty. A Elder was also killed after failing to revolt, so naturally no one cared about Lan Sou Yu. Not only did Lan Sou Yu’s prison life become even more miserable, Ling Long went to the prison of the Ministry of Justice. The jailer had already come over. As he talked, he looked at Ling Long in a flattering manner.
Linglong casually gave the jailer a few golden melon seeds. The jailer was already very happy and smiling. It was as if he was extremely close to Linglong. Hearing these people torturing Lan Sou Yu, Linglong couldn’t help but feel a little uncomfortable. Lan Sou Yu shouldn’t have died like this. She should have left it to herself. Linglong had already petitioned the Emperor. They had already made arrangements for Lan Sou Yu’s death. These arrangements were malicious and logical. A person who failed to subvert the regime would often have to be responsible for the fruit he had planted. This was the rule of the Dali Dynasty, and it was also a principle that was universally applicable in the world.
Linglong had dressed up carefully. Lan Shuyu stood coldly outside the cell with a furong-like eyebrow. It was as if she could feel it. She raised her head slightly from the ground. Because she was severely bound by shackles, Lan Shuyu could only lie on the ground. In the broken bowl in front of her, there were two rats looking at Linglong with mung bean eyes. They also looked at Lan Shuyu and ran away. Standing outside the cell, Linglong said softly, “This palace has come to see the Empress off.”
Lan Sou Yu was still breathing softly just now. Hearing this, he immediately turned around and said, His eyes were filled with disbelief and an inexplicable mockery. “This palace doesn’t need Your Highness to personally come and see me off. This palace … This palace will leave by itself. Besides, this palace is still around the emperor. The emperor didn’t let this palace die. This palace will live until the last moment, until the last moment.” Lan Sou’s eyes, which used to be even more charming than peach blossoms, had long since lost their luster because of the prison disaster. The mouse beside him suddenly drilled into Lan Sou Yu’s clothes. If she gently embroidered the silk on the clothes, Ling Long knew that these Shu embroideries were made of high-grade Shu brocade and cocoons. Naturally, it could make the mouse drool. Linglong instructed the jailer to come over. The jailer opened the door of the cell and took an officer’s hat chair and placed it inside. Linglong reached out and held the cooked ginseng in her hand. She asked coldly, “Did you save money and not properly take care of the empress?”
One old mountain ginseng was worth ten taels of silver. Linglong did not feel distressed. There were many imperial dining rooms in the Grand Hospital. Linglong’s voice was undoubtedly very exciting. After she finished speaking slowly, the jailer walked over and said, “Every day, not only the old mountain ginseng, but also the black chicken and snow lotus were stewed into soup for Concubine Lan to enjoy.”
Linglong nodded in satisfaction. She gently held the spoon in her hand. “You are the first prisoner of the Dali Dynasty to enjoy such regular food, You should have died sooner because of your evil deeds. Take a look at how this palace treats you. This palace did not let anyone hurt you, nor did I pull out your hair and fingernails. This palace just wants to remind you that one day this palace will defeat you and avenge Princess Yu Lai … ”
A woman who once had skin like snow, She was already unkempt. Her black hair had long since fallen off her bun. She was crawling on the ground like a dead dog. Linglong smiled softly and continued, “Ben Gong came to Zihua Palace from the hidden mansion with you. At that time, Ben Gong did not know what kind of person you were.” And then you showed up, Several times I almost fell into your hands, Fortunately, I have my own Heavenly Form and I don’t seem to be able to survive anymore. I want to tell you that this palace is invincible here. Your life is like a headless fly in this palace’s hands. If you are well, this palace can keep you alive for ten to eight years. If you are not well, this palace will immediately let you die. ” Linglong walked gently to Lan Sou Yu’s side. The shoes under the flower shed knocked on the rough ground with a dull sound. Her head was full of pearls shining brightly under the light of the torch. Her bright red lips rose slightly. “Are you right? Ninth Concubine Lan-oh, no, you should be called Lan Sou Yu now, right? Lan Sou Yu?”
“I … I …” Lan Sou Yu was out of breath. “I should have killed you a long time ago, but I didn’t …”
“I won’t reprimand you. Let bygones be bygones. Do you not understand this logic at all?” Linglong smiled and gently stroked her fingernails. She pushed away the hair covering Lan Sou Yu’s face. Her face was revealed again. Linglong smiled and bent the spoon slightly, pressing it against the corner of Lan Sou Yu’s mouth. “Drink up, this palace is here to send you to your death.”
Hearing this, Lan Sou Yu’s entire body trembled and she quickly shut her mouth. “Bu Ling Long, if you want to poison the food, I … I can still go out one day.” Linglong’s fingers cooled slightly. The bowl fell to the ground and broke into two pieces. Linglong watched the bright yellow juice slowly flow on the ground. She walked away slightly and continued to sit on the chair opposite her.
“You are good everywhere, but one thing is that you are not pleasing. You can do whatever others ask of you. You like to go against the will of others. Those who go against the will of others in the imperial palace have no good results.” Linglong did not look at Lan Sou Yu but at her sleeves. The golden phoenix on her sleeve shone brightly. No matter where it was, as long as it had a little luster, this phoenix would flap its wings and fly away. Linglong reached out and gently stroked the phoenix’s eyes. Her fingers slightly froze as she said, “I sent you off when I came here today. The Emperor asked me to do this, saying that I was afraid that I would have a long dream.”
Lan Sou Yu got up from the ground in disbelief and climbed to Ling Long’s feet. The jailer hurriedly came over and whipped Lan Sou Yu. Ling Long’s heart ached. She looked at the jailer and scolded him discontentedly, “Go down. There’s nothing for you here.” The jailer retreated embarrassedly. “It’s the emperor, the emperor …” Linglong said.
“Whether it’s Concubine Mude or the Empress or you, everything is the Emperor. If you want to blame yourself and the Emperor, then blame yourself. You …” After Linglong finished speaking, she smiled. “There are some things that you need to take responsibility for, don’t you?”
“Bu Linglong, you lied, you lied-the Emperor had a night out with this palace. The Emperor that this palace served was extremely comfortable. The Emperor won’t. Bu Linglong must be lying …” Lan Sou Yu’s small cherry suddenly grew up. Linglong looked at the slender waist crawling over like willow willows and smiled faintly as she turned into a bloody mouthful that was truly worthy of her name.
“Your Majesty approached your father for a lot of things. Also, I thank you for your gold medal. If it weren’t for this gold medal, you wouldn’t have died so quickly. I thank you.” After Linglong finished speaking, her bright eyes and bright teeth seemed to start laughing happily. The radiant smile radiated around her. Lan Sou Yu looked at Linglong’s still delicate face in a puddle of water. Her slender fingers dug gently on the ground for a while. Linglong saw that Lan Sou Yu had written the word “hate” on the ground. Her eyebrows curled up slightly, and there was a slightly curved arc on her eyebrows like Mo Dai. “Your Majesty has never loved you sincerely, No is no, If it weren’t for the fact that you still have some value in this palace, “You must know that the Emperor approached you for his own benefit. You are despicable and filthy people. With benefits, you will naturally have the same fate. The benefits are gone. Haven’t you had enough of the life of a dream-like woman in the palace?” Linglong’s knuckles trembled slightly.
Lan Shuyu raised her head, tears already flowing down her cheeks, and said, “Are you telling the truth?” Linglong actually wanted to say that whether it was Lan Sou Yu or herself, she was also a tiny part of the circle. But when it came to her mouth, she couldn’t say anything. Linglong looked at Lan Sou Yu as if she was looking at herself. In the future, er, she suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing over from the fontanel into her own spinal cord. It was an indescribable chill. Linglong tried her best to keep herself dignified.
‘”You can’t drink seriously. If you’re serious, you’ll get drunk. It’s not like you don’t understand. Someone has tolerated you for many years because of your pampering. You should have gotten lost earlier. The Emperor didn’t touch you these years, not forever, but there will be time afterwards. If you’re drunk, your soul will faint. You should have understood this earlier.” After Linglong finished speaking, she glanced at Lan Sou Yu once again. She felt that Lan Sou Yu must be disheartened this time. It had been three months since she had been here. Lan Sou Yu’s desire to survive had always been very strong. But suddenly, Lan Sou Yu was tired. The color on her skin slowly turned into a kind of silvery white, almost transparent appearance.
Linglong couldn’t bear to look closely and said, “This palace won’t lie. If it wasn’t for the royal decree, neither Concubine Mude nor the Empress would die like that. The Emperor has always been a good person, but bad people always need someone to do it. The Emperor hates you more than I do. You already understand that it’s just that you aren’t willing to admit it, right?”
“Is that so?” Lan Sou Yu also started to doubt herself. She couldn’t help but smile. She slowly climbed to the puddle in front of her and reached out to grab the broken porcelain. Qin’er quickly threw the porcelain away. She didn’t succeed and just giggled. When she raised her head, Linglong saw the dust on Lan Shuyu’s face. The dust was already dirty and yellow under the faint water stain.
Linglong handed the imperial edict in her hand to Lan Sou Yu and said, “Take a look for yourself. See how your life ended, so that you can be clear.” Lan Shuyu caught the decree. Seeing that the tears on her face had turned into two strands of rope, thick and hanging on her chin, Linglong used her crystal armor to gently tap a vermilion-painted tray in front of her. Inside the tray was a knife, a small bright yellow medicine, and a white silk.
