Chapter 722 Unrepentant

Chu Junlan hugged Xiao Xujian's thin waist and thought for a while and said, "Although the emperor ruled the world with kindness, the more important thing is face. Today's affairs are also royal scandals after all. The best way to eliminate the scandal is to let those who are gossiping. What kind of people will completely stop?"

Xiao Xu was silent for a moment when he heard this, nodded and said, "We thought of one place. I think not only Wang Shitong, but also others, I am afraid that those who can silence them one after another will have to silence them."

Chu Junlan also rubbed his face against Xiao Xu's shoulder, took a deep breath, and the refreshing breath in his body was filled with his breath, which also relieved the anxiety in his heart a lot.

"The emperor has always been like this, so the emperor's face is naturally more important than the lives of ordinary people." Chu Junlan's voice was sarcastic.

After hearing this, Xiao Xu just smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I don't want to become such a person as well. If I stand in that position, I don't even want human nature..."

As if he knew that he had made up his words, Xiao Xu didn't say anything more, but Chu Junlan could understand his thoughts.

"This kind of thing may vary from person to person. Moreover, the reason why we can say that we are not going to be like this is because we have not yet stood at such a high position. We may one day get to the high position and we will do more excessive things, which is unknown." Chu Junlan couldn't help but sigh,

Not only in this life, but also in the past life, she has seen too many bloody scenes and power struggles. When people have no power and wealth, they can still retain their original intentions. However, once some people have these, their code of conduct will completely change.

Now I swear to swear that I will not know what I will say, it is completely empty talk, because once I am in that position, in order to survive, I sometimes have to do something that I could not do before.

The two of them took a break after washing up.

The next day, I didn't hear anyone outside making random talks about what happened last night, as if nothing had happened.

Chu Junlan only focused on taking care of Rusheng for the next period of time, and during this period, he even sent a food box to the Duke Maoguo's mansion outside the palace.

Two days later, when Xiao Xu came back, he told Chu Junlan about something.

"The emperor is preparing to kill Wang Cairen at dusk today."

Chu Junlan raised his eyebrows and nodded and said, "The emperor's methods are really clean. He used to be so pampered, but now he just said he would let go."

Xiao Xu sighed a little, "What if you don't let go? The emperor seems to have already determined that Wang Cairen seduced the Sixth Prince."

"It's just to punish the Sixth Prince. Just a woman, it's not important to have a son." Chu Junlan put down the small clothes sewn for Rusheng, moved his neck, and smiled, "Since he is going to kill Wang Cairen today, His Highness Qin also told me when he left that I must go and send her a gift."

Xiao Xu nodded and said, "I'll go with you."

"Silly words." Chu Junlan couldn't help pinching Xiao Xu's face, and then pinched his hand, "It's a cold palace, what are you going to do, as a prince,? You only take a look, and you'll be back after a trip."

Xiao Xu had no choice but to nod, turned around and ordered Haitang to take two little eunuchs and follow Chu Junlan, and also instructed: "Don't let someone hurt your master."

Haitang and the eunuch both hurriedly saluted, and their eyes looked at Chu Junlan with a little more admiration and ambiguousness.

Chu Junlan has now become a legend in the eyes of all of them. This is the real capable woman. She has experienced so much plumpness and can still make the eldest prince devote herself to her. I am afraid that even Concubine Shu and Concubine Ying in the palace can't learn this ability.

Chu Junlan did not pay much attention to places like the Cold Palace, but the palace was the emperor's home. If it was to move the capital, it would definitely be restored according to the original emperor. The concubines in the Cold Palace were also the emperor's people, so they would naturally follow him.

All the way to a remote courtyard in the northwest corner, the new palace walls and the light that scattered on the golden tiles under the slanting sunset still cannot bring any vitality to the courtyard.

With a creaking sound, I saw the empty courtyard and several scattered palaces, and a few little eunuchs were gathering together and whispering.

Seeing Chu Junlan coming, the little eunuch did not recognize her, and did not dare to act rashly. He only saluted respectfully.

Chu Junlan asked: "Where is Wang Cairen?"

"It's here, you come with me." The little eunuch led Chu Junlan to the corner and pushed open the door of a wing room.

With a creaking sound, Chu Junlan stepped into the house. Because he could not adapt to the darkness in the house, he could only squint his eyes at first.

After a moment, she saw the furnishings in the house and the extremely embarrassed person.

There is a table and two chairs in the house, and there are wooden beds and Gong buckets in the corner of the wall. There is no window in the house. The only light source is the door behind Chu Junlan.

Wang Shitong's face was pale and close to the white robe on her body. When she heard someone coming, she stood up excitedly, but when she saw Chu Junlan coming, she had unconcealed disappointment in her eyes.

Chu Junlan felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Wang Shitong like this. Although Wang Shitong had done many excessive things before and even framed her for chastity, she said that Rusheng was born with Xiao Xu and Fu Zhiheng on her back, but she was about to die now, and Chu Junlan didn't want to worry about the hatred.

"Wang Cairen, are you okay in the past two days?"

Wang Shitong narrowed her eyes and looked at Chu Junlan who was kind to her. She turned her heart a few times, raised her chin proudly and said, "It's okay, it's just a little quiet here. After all, the emperor can't bear to let me be cold and hungry."

Seeing that she was still in this way, Chu Junlan couldn't help but sigh, it seemed that she was still obsessed with it.

Seeing that Chu Junlan was just silent, Wang Shitong became more and more confident that Chu Junlan was here to surrender.

She thought to herself that it might be the limit for the emperor to lock her up for two days. Now Chu Junlan is still here to visit him, and his attitude is still eased than before. She laughed at her without opening her mouth. She thought that the emperor would let her go out soon.

Thinking of this, Wang Shitong slowly adjusted her dignified sitting posture on the chair, smiled proudly, and showed the demeanor of the concubine: "Tell me, why do you think about me today? Is the emperor planning to let me go? You are thinking about coming to me now and showing off your best performance?"

Chu Junlan shook his head and laughed, "Wang Cairen, I'm just kind to see you."

"Good intentions? Do you have kind intentions?" Wang Shitong raised her voice and stood up, saying coldly, "Don't think I'm committing suicide. Although you promised Your Highness Qin to take care of me, you didn't want to care about me at all, right? That day, something big happened in the imperial garden, and I didn't see you willing to say a word to me. Are you pretending to be a good person in front of me now?"

Chu Junlan shook his head and said helplessly: "Whatever you think, I just want to ask you, you robbed my medicine that day and slandered me for adultery with Fu Zhiheng. Who was instructing me?"

Wang Shitong said sarcastically: "Instruction? You are so charming, you seduce so many men, and you hate you too many people. Do you still use instruction? You seduce my King of Qin, I have long wanted to kill you!"

Chu Junlan originally saw that Wang Shitong was going to be executed, but she was sorry for her to come to see him. Unexpectedly, Wang Shitong had such a good face, no matter how good the patience was, she would be exhausted at this time.

"Since you can't learn to speak well, that's fine. If you say there is no behind-the-scenes instruction, then you will be able to write off your grudge after you die. For the sake of His Highness the King of Qin, if you have anything to explain, you can tell me now and I can help you convey the King of Qin."

After hearing what she said, Wang Shitong's eyes widened, her eyebrows were rising, and she was completely gentle and Chuchu, as if she was angry, as if she was angered female beast: "Chu Junlan, you have such vicious thoughts! Do you dare to curse the emperor's concubine? You are so rude, and the emperor knows, and he will definitely punish you severely!"

"Don't you understand?" Chu Junlan looked at Wang Shitong so angry, and her mood suddenly became very good.

"You can't go out of the cold palace anymore, the emperor wants to kill you. Because you are a concubine, you are unpretentious and seduced the Sixth Prince. You will have to do something ridiculous in the future."

"You're talking nonsense! You obviously saw it that day, but the Sixth Prince rushed over. I'm just a weak woman. What can I do?"

"Yes, you are a weak woman, you can't do anything about it, so you are pursuing His Highness the King of Qin and expressing your heart, while hanging your sixth Highness, and playing with the prince as a fool.

"You even took the initiative to serve the emperor, but you were smart enough to act in front of His Highness Six. You have no choice but to have feelings for His Highness Six. Do you think you can really hide it from the emperor's eyes? His Highness Six will always be kept in the dark?"

Wang Shitong was stunned by the words, and felt that her little thoughts seemed to be invisible in front of Chu Junlan, just like she was stripped of her clothes and paraded in the sun in the summer. Not only was the sun shining, but her eyes were burning, but even her own face was burning.

"You are slandering me!" She couldn't help but defend herself.

Chu Junlan nodded and said, "Okay, I won't ask you anymore. Anyway, you deserve it and you can't end up with a good end. What else should I care about with you?"

As he said that, he turned around and wanted to go out. After walking two steps, he stopped again: "If you have any words to bring to the King of Qin, you can tell me. It can be regarded as my last favor, and be kind and righteous."

Chu Junlan's indifferent attitude completely angered Wang Shitong. She arose in anger and screamed.

"You poisonous prostitute, you dare to curse me? Be careful, I will tell the emperor! Let the emperor punish you heavily!"

Hearing that she was so petite, Chu Junlan just thought that this person was already crazy. He shook his head helplessly and refused to stay for a moment.

As soon as they came out, they met Li Defang, the eunuch beside Emperor Jing Hong, with people coming. The palace servant behind them was holding a tray in his hands, and there were white silk, daggers and poisons in the tray.

Seeing Chu Junlan there, the three of them saluted: "I have met the eldest prince's concubine."

Chu Junlan nodded slightly and said, "I heard about today's incident. I thought that we had met one another, so I wanted to come and see you off. Without delaying the job of Eunuch Li, I will say goodbye first."

"Greatly send the eldest prince's concubine." Li Defang saluted respectfully and then brought the people into the house.

Before Chu Junlan could walk out of the cold palace, he heard Wang Shitong's scream coming from the room: "Let me go, the emperor cannot bear to kill me! You eunuchs..."
