Chapter 126: The Faint King
For Li Yinhong, Liao Qingyu has been stupid for so many years. Now that Li Yinhong gave up on her first, Liao Qingyu will no longer allow herself to be stupid.
From now on, she will plan for her future.
On the second day, there was news in the city that Concubine Ya from the feudal state was sent by the feudal state to plot against the emperor. At the time of the last dynasty, many officials raised this matter, asking the emperor to stop spending the country's manpower and material resources in order to save Maya's life.
The emperor listened to these officials saying that they wanted Maya to die, and his face became more and more ugly: "Which of your eyes saw that Ya'er was going to kill me?"
He knew in his heart that Maya had no intention of harming him. If she had, she wouldn't have turned herself into what she is.
"Your Majesty, this woman is from the feudal country. The feudal country has been at odds with our dynasty for a long time, and has invaded the border many times, and this woman suddenly came to make peace, which must be uneasy and kind. He also asked the emperor to give death to Concubine Ya for the sake of national stability. ”
As soon as these words came out, all the officials in the court seconded the proposal. The emperor sat on the dragon chair, looked at the people kneeling in front of him, and was furious: "You guys, it's really getting more and more powerful!"
After saying this, the emperor got up and strode away. Seeing this, the father-in-law on the side hurriedly stepped forward and shouted at the top of his voice: "Retreat." ”
The things in the court also spread in the harem, and naturally it also spread to Maya. Maya saw the palace maid beside her whispering something, and then opened her mouth: "But what happened?"
Several palace maids looked at each other, and then spoke: "Niangniang, you still don't know about this matter." ”
"You guys are getting more and more presumptuous, why are you in this palace, is there anything else I can't know?" Maya was a little angry and coughed lightly.
The palace maid hurriedly stepped forward and brought tea: "This matter is like this, today in the court, I don't know what's wrong, the hundred officials impeached Niangniang in front of the emperor, saying that they wanted the emperor to give Niangniang to death, so as not to mess up the court." But the mother can rest assured, no matter what the officials say, the emperor did not agree. ”
When Maya heard this, her face froze slightly: "You mean, the hundred officials want the emperor to give me death?"
"That's how it was rumored, but you don't have to worry about Niangniang, the emperor loves Niangniang so much, naturally he won't listen to those officials. Seeing this, the palace maid hurriedly explained.
Maya slowly closed her eyes and showed a self-deprecating smile: "Those officials, what did you say?"
was asked by Maya, and the palace maid was also a little flustered: "Niangniang, the slave maid is just a palace maid, I don't know these things, Niangniang ......"
"Say!" Maya lost her patience and her face turned very ugly.
The palace maid was yelled at by Maya, and immediately knelt down on the ground, and said the words tremblingly: "Those officials said that if the emperor keeps his mother, it is harmful to the country and the king." ”
"Harm the country, faint king. Maya's eyes were slightly red, and she laughed a few times, "Why, there is no place for me?"
Maya stood up and lay down on the bed: "I'm tired, you all go out." No one should come in unless there is something urgent. ”
"Yes, that lady has a good rest. The palace maid responded to Maya's words, stood up, and withdrew with the rest of the people.
After retreating, the palace maid avoided everyone and hurried to a corner of the imperial garden, where she saw Liao Qingyu, who was waiting there early: "Miss Liao, the matter has been told to Concubine Ya Niangniang as you said, and the life of the slave maid after leaving the palace depends on Miss Liao." ”
"Don't worry, if you do things for me, I will naturally arrange it for you. You're going to leave the palace next year, and I'll arrange this house and UnionPay for you. Liao Qingyu pursed her lips and showed a smile.
When the palace maid heard this, she was very happy: "Thank you, Miss Liao." ”
"You don't have to thank me, you should thank yourself. Okay, you can go back with me. Liao Qingyu smiled and walked forward.
The palace maid didn't think much about it, so she followed Liao Qingyu out. As soon as she walked to the edge of the pond, she felt someone push her behind her, and she didn't have time to react, so she fell into the pond: "Help!"
Liao Qingyu stood by the pond and watched the palace maid call for help, without any intention of saving her: "It's remote here, no one will come to save you." However, I will arrange for your body to be found. The life you want to live will be fulfilled in the next life. ”
"Save ...... ......" The palace maid watched Liao Qingyu turn around and leave, feeling that she was becoming more and more unable to breathe, and then lost consciousness.
Liao Qingyu left quickly, leaving no traces: "Wait for the news of Concubine Ya's death to come out, and then let people find the body of this palace maid." ”
"Miss, although there are not many people coming to this pond, there will still be palace people who will come to take care of it. The slave and maid are afraid, and they can't hide it for a few days. ”
When Liao Qingyu heard this, she snorted coldly: "In a few days, Concubine Ya won't be able to live for so long." ”
Sure enough, that night, the news came that Maya was critically ill. Xue Ning got the news, and desperately, begged Li Yinhong to take her into the palace.
After entering the palace, Xue Ning saw Maya lying on the bed with a pale face: "Maya, why are you ......?"
Seeing Xue Ning, Maya tugged at the corners of her mouth and showed a pale smile: "Your Majesty, I want to talk to Ning'er alone for a while, is it okay?"
The emperor was always by her side, his expression was very solemn, he nodded, and got up to leave. The other people present also left with the emperor.
Waiting for everyone to leave, Xue Ning walked up to her and sat down: "Haven't you been drinking medicine to relieve it? Why, it suddenly became like this?"
"Ning'er, I like the emperor, and I also miss the emperor for being so good to me. But Ning'er, I can't be a drag on the emperor and let him be spurned by everyone because of me. ”
When Xue Ning heard this, his brows frowned, and he remembered what was happening in the city today, and immediately understood: "Maya, why are you so stupid? Those officials are talking nonsense, you haven't harmed the emperor at all, you don't have to care about them." ”
"I don't have to care, but the emperor has to face it. I don't want to hear them say that the emperor is a faint king because of me. Ning'er, I don't want to be a burden to her. ”
Hearing this, Xue Ning already understood that Maya was seriously ill today because she was bent on dying and did not drink the medicine prepared by the imperial doctor: "Maya, why are you so stupid? How can you be so stupid? Do you think that if you die like this, the emperor will be happy?"
"At least I won't be scolded unconscious, as long as I don't drag him down, I'll be at ease. As she spoke, Maya stretched out her hand and held a letter in her hand, "Can I trouble you and give this letter to the emperor when I die?"
Looking at the letter in front of him, Xue Ning shook his head heavily: "I don't do this kind of thing to send letters, if you really want to give it to the emperor, just give me a life and hand it over to the emperor yourself." ”
A tear flowed down Maya's eyes: "Ning'er, I have been poisoned into my lungs, and there is no way to do anything except the antidote." But now there's no antidote, isn't it?"
