Chapter 480 The Collapse of the Su Family

In the moonlight, Yue Xilou had quickly led people of Imperial Guards to Ruyi Gallery.

Behind them, Liang Zhen and Commandery Princess Jingle were respectively on the sides of Huanan Xin's sedan, seriously following them.

Huanan Xin squinted his eyes and appeared serious when his heart violently beat.

At that time, he still couldn’t believe that Gu Yunxi, who had just been occupied by him, would carry on a clandestine love affair on such an important day.

She could never be a silly woman!

But it was the truth indeed.

After all, she hadn't appeared. She was just to make up, which could never make her not be able to come back after the second round of firework.

While thinking and pondering, Huanan Xin was anxious and serious, so he ceaselessly pushed people holding his sedan and Yue Xilou to be quicker.

At that time, Yue Xilou was a little nervous.

By means of his instinct, he could speculate that Commandery Princess Jingle must be tricked by Gu Yunxi.

The same as Huanan Xin, Yue Xilou also thought Gu Yunxi could never be so silly.

If she could betray Huanan Xin and make a clandestine love affair, in the world, there was only one man being able to make her do so. That was, the Ninth Prince, Huanan He.

But now the Ninth Prince was at the banquet and greeting those envoys of Ying State.

Now that Huanan Xin had made the order, he just came to Ruyi Gallery and took the people.

When the team rushed to Ruyi Gallery, the sedan was put down.

Yue Xilou said nothing and gestured to his members.

Then four persons of Imperial Guards were divided into two groups and quickly slid into the yard.

Out of the yard, Huanan Xin was serious and cold in his handsome face. He lowered his head and fiddled with the jade thumb ring on his finger. Then as a crack occurred from the yard, a woman astonishedly screamed.

"What are you doing? I am a concubine in the second rank! How could I be provoked by you those servants? Let me go! Don't be so rude!"

The voice came from Concubine Liang Su Mao.

Suddenly, Huanan Xin raised his eyebrows, directly shifting his blade-like eyes to confused Commandery Princess Jingle.

Feeling the depression from Huanan Xin, Commandery Princess Jingle was a little nervous. She hustled to turn around and look at Yue Xilou.

Yue Xilou raised his purple lips and sneered, turning around and particularly avoiding her helpless eyes.

Soon people of Imperial Guards dragged Concubine Liang Su Mao in disheveled hair there and pushed her down in front of Huanan Xin's sedan.

There were remained tears in Concubine Liang's face as she raised her wet and red eyes and rushed to the sedan. But then her shoulders were violently refrained by Imperial Guards and she couldn't move anymore.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I just have a rest after being drunk! Why do you treat me so violently?"

"B*tch, you still dare to cheat me!"

Huanan Xin anxiously leaned and flapped her, which almost gave her a dislocated jaw.

"Who is the man? Tell me!"

He strictly shouted, but that couldn't touch Concubine Liang.

She crawled and covered her cheeks with hands, ceaselessly mocking and sneering.

Huanan Xin had already been impatient, so he tightly closed his mouth and rubbed his forehead with two fingers.

"Drag the b*tch away. Don't let her spot my imperial harem."

"I am a b*tch? I spot your imperial harem?"

Instantly, Concubine Liang was like a crazy woman, leaning back and violently laughing. She turned to say something sharp.

"Your Majesty, where is your imperial harem? Since the day we came into the Palace, we, those poor women, have been regarded as something for fun, being put in the halls? In your imperial harem, there is only Concubine Yun."

"You just ask yourself. Have you ever treated other concubines with a little love and patience the same as Concubine Yun?"

Huanan Xin appeared angry and serious, anxiously rebuking.

"You still dare to say those ridiculous words? Aren’t you afraid that I will kill you immediately?"

Concubine Liang sneered again.

"You just kill me! Today I betray you, and you kill me. Tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, there would be other concubines betraying you. You also kill them."

"Do you think as long as you try to please Concubine Yun as a servant, she would put her heart to you?"

"Eventually, there would never be a person sincerely accompanying with you. You will be a lonely man! Ha-ha!"

Huanan Xin stared at Concubine Liang laughing as his face slightly convulsed.

"Take her to a vacant place, beat, and kill her! Prison the vice assistant of the cabinet, the bachelor Su Changxuan. After the envoy of Ying State leaves, I will seriously deal with all people in the Su Family."

"No! You let the Su Family go! I beg you!"

Hearing that, Concubine Liang's pupils suddenly shrank. As her face became pale, she was excited and shouted.

"I tell you who the man is! You just let my father go! You let the Su Family go! Whatever you want to know, I will tell you..."

Huanan Xin slowly closed his eyes, just smiling.

"Although you want to say now, I don't want to hear. Take her away!"

Concubine Liang was dragged by Imperial Guards along the way when her excited and anxious voice gradually disappeared in the night.

"Your Majesty, I also know Noble Concubine Hui once framed Concubine Yun! She has been framing Concubine Yun..."

Huanan Xin's eyebrows slightly moved as he looked around.

Yue Xilou hustled to salute and wait.

"Let her clearly say what she should say. You could never let the thing tonight be known by other people."

"As Your Majesty command."

Yue Xilou led his members who grasped Concubine Liang in the long and quiet path. In a flicker of fragrance, some people's figures showed up.

It was Gu Yunxi and her maid.

"Your Grace, I salute you."

In spite of anxiety, Yue Xilou had to cautiously stop and salute as a courtier.

Gu Yunxi, the v*xen in front of him, was not a simple woman. So, the thing tonight shouldn't be none of her business.

Yue Xilou clearly knew the truth, but he had no concrete evidence.

"Sister Yun, I know who wants to frame you! I always know! You just intercede with His Majesty to let my father and the Su Family go! You intercede with him..."

Being violently dragged by Imperial Guards and coming across Gu Yunxi, Concubine Liang struggled to turn around, sadly shouting to her.

"What happened?"

Gu Yunxi pressed her chest with her hand holding a handkerchief, pretending to be astonished.

Yue Xilou indifferently answered.

"Concubine Liang offended His Majesty, and I am ordered to take her away. Your Grace, if you have no other thing, I just leave first."

"You work hard. Please go to work."

When they went far, Gu Yunxi quietly raised her mouth. With her delicate fingers, she slowly rubbed her hair accessory's long fringe made of coral.

As the silver finger stall ornamented with gold scratched the beads as red as blood, a clear sound occurred.

It was Great! The former Ritual Minister, the son of the head of the cabinet fell from power. The vice assistant of the cabinet also fell! The next object was Commander-in-chief of the Eastern Depot and Shi’s Mansion...

Gu Yunxi hadn't gone far when she came across Huanan Xin's sedan.

Seeing her, Huanan Xin's refrained anger eventually burst out. He violently beat the sedan's barrier, fiercely rebuking.

"Where did you go? I can't find you anywhere..."

"Your Majesty..."

When Gu Yunxi wanted to answer him, Commandery Princess Jingle said on one side of the sedan. She pointed at Gu Yunxi and violently said.

"His Majesty, she must frame Concubine Liang. Just now I followed her all the way, and I saw her going to Ruyi Gallery. You just say! Have you ever let someone purposely tempt...?"

"Shut up!"

Huanan Xin was much too anxious and shouted, which made Commandery Princess Jingle stop.

Gu Yunxi and Zhiqi hustled to kneel.

Gu Yunxi lowered her head and sadly frowned.

"Your Majesty, I don't understand what Commandery Princess Jingle has said. My garment was spotted by the meal, so I came back to the palace and changed into a new one. It is the quickest way to walk through the path beside Ruyi Gallery."

"I once came across Ruyi Gallery indeed, but I have not framed anyone!"

"Take the sedan down."

Huanan Xin stepped on the ground, holding delicate Gu Yunxi up in person. Then he took her in his arms.

"I believe you."

He said in a deep voice. Huanan Xin appeared serious and anxious, which seemed that he still minded the thing about Concubine Liang.

Although he didn't love Concubine Liang, he couldn't bear that another man casually touched her.

Now he was evidently cuckolded, and the fact was found by so many people. How could he as a supreme Emperor be elegant?

Gu Yunxi helplessly bit her lip, raising her watery eyes and looking at Huanan Xin. The soft and delicate appearance was so charming.

"Your Majesty, I came across Master Yue just now and knew Concubine Liang had offended you for her rude words. Now that you have punished her, please don't be angry. It is important to take care of your body."

Gu Yunxi rubbed the dragon pattern in his garment, softly comforting him.

After being blank for a while, Huanan Xin raised his mouth. He excitedly smiled with appreciation.

"You are the best woman. Now the opera in Imperial Garden has started, so I go to the opera together with you."

Then he turned around and ordered.

"You take 20 steps backward and follow us."

At night, beside the wall, Huanan Xin held Gu Yunxi's hands and quietly walked for a long time.

After slightly sighing, the young Emperor suddenly asked.

"Do you remember? When Father was still on the throne, I held your hands all the way, walking around the Palace and streets of Jing City..."

The words reminded Gu Yunxi of the past things. Although she was blank for a while, her brain was in the clearest time.

She always knew though she could remember the past things, time couldn't be backward. Those who in the past couldn't come back to the original place forever.

"Yunxi, do you believe? Maybe I am not a great Emperor, and I am also not a good husband for those concubines. But I really love you…"

Huanan Xin said in a slight voice, which couldn't let Gu Yunxi distinguish his emotion.

Gu Yunxi softly smiled.

"I believe you, Your Majesty. I really thank you for your love."

"I don't need your appreciation."

Huanan Xin pressed his lips and smiled as a flicker of coldness occurred in his eyes.

"Previously in the Palace, you protected me and looked after me. Now I am on the throne, so I will achieve my former promise."

"Yunxi, whatever you do, I will tolerate and forgive you. You can also not love me, as it is adequate for me to love you."

In the air overhead, the third round of firework burned out. The scene was so splendid and great.

The two people on the ground subconsciously stopped and looked at each other.

Different colors ceaselessly changed on Huanan Xin's handsome face, which still couldn't cover his cold and gloomy appearance.

"Don't betray me. It is the only requirement I ask of you."

As the cold finger rubbed Gu Yunxi's delicate face, he said in a gloomy and warning voice.

"If I know you have betrayed me, I will not directly kill you as I treat Concubine Liang. I will let you be alive and extremely bitter."

"You don't try to leave me. I once said wherever I went, I would take you with me."
