第172章 密信
苏轻宛说,“皇上如此步步紧逼,我们又有何选择?西南向来忠心耿耿,却被您无端猜忌,如今更是拿父王的性命相要挟,您这是要把我们逼上绝路!”

皇上看着苏轻宛,既有着上位者的威严和审视,又似乎带着一丝对局势的掌控欲:“朕也不想走到这一步,只要你们乖乖听话,朕自然不会为难你们。”

陆璟站在一旁,听着两人的对话,心中暗自思量。他深知这局势已然到了千钧一发的时刻,稍有不慎,便会引发一场大乱。他抬眸看向苏轻宛,暗示她要冷静。

苏轻宛深吸一口气,她必须冷静。“皇上,既然您如此笃定,那我也不再多言。只是我想见见父王,至少我要亲眼确认他是否安好。”

皇上微微挑眉,似乎对苏轻宛的要求有些意外。这时,一直沉默的陆璟上前一步,轻声说道:“皇上,让郡主去见见西南王吧,也好让她安心。”

皇上思索片刻,终是点了点头,应允了此事。

苏轻宛心急如焚,恨不得立刻飞到父王身边。陆璟在前面带路,两人朝着地牢的方向走去。通往地牢的阶梯阴暗潮湿,每下一级台阶,寒意便更重一分,苏轻宛冻得瑟瑟发抖,可脚步却愈发急促。她满心都是父王受苦的模样。

苏轻宛一眼便看到了那个蜷缩在角落里的身影,正是她心心念念的西南王。西南王还穿着除夕宴上的朝服,只是如今已血迹斑斑,狼狈不堪,手脚被粗重的铁链紧紧拷着,形容憔悴。

“父王!”苏轻宛悲呼一声,泪水不受控制地滚落。

西南王缓缓抬起头,看到苏轻宛的那一刻,非常惊喜,这便是他在这黑暗地牢中唯一的慰藉。

陆璟见状,轻轻挥手,地牢中的禁军鱼贯而出。

苏轻宛快步上前,蹲在西南王身边,想要抱住他,却又怕弄疼他满身的伤口。西南王颤抖着伸出手,想要摸摸女儿的脸,却被铁链限制了行动。

西南王张了张嘴,本想和女儿说些西南的事,可目光触及一旁的陆璟,话到嘴边又咽了回去,只是轻声说道:“平安就好,平安就好啊……”

苏轻宛强忍着泪水,说道:“父王,我在陆家别院,一切都好,没有受罪。皇上要如期给我和陆璟举办婚礼,定在三月,还让兄长们上京参加婚礼。”

西南王一听,脸色骤变,急切地说道:“绝对不可以!他们上京,那是死路一条!只有活着,才有希望啊!”他激动得声音都有些颤抖,“我没有杀皇子,皇上就是想逼迫我们谋反!”

陆璟在一旁默默听着,这时接口道:“小皇子本就回天乏术,刺激到了皇上。如今皇上膝下只有大皇子,若大皇子遭遇不测,这皇位大概率会落在西南王身上,所以皇上才想尽办法要铲除西南王一脉。”

西南王闻言,冷笑一声,目光如刀般射向陆璟,突然问道:“当初本王上京,曾经收到密信,劝本王不要上京,难不成是陆大人所为?”
