Chapter 35: Thank you for letting me live and let me die
As soon as Akai cried, Queen Gu glanced at Akai, frowned, snapped, and slapped the chopsticks in her hand on the table. was so frightened that all the nurses and maids in the house knelt down
Wan Ru trembled, knelt directly on the ground, the broken porcelain pieces on the ground pierced her knees, and her painful facial features were twisted together, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Queen Gu looked at the people kneeling all over the ground, and asked the nurse to quickly hug Akai down and coax her. The nurse quickly got up from the ground, picked up Akai, patted him on the back, and retreated.
Queen Gu's newly dyed nails knocked on the eaves of the bowl one after another, and this tinkling sound hit Wanru's heart one after another, she understood that the queen was going to drop her.
Since knowing that Empress Gu and Murong Linshuang were going to deal with Qinmei, Wanru had the consciousness that "one day she will be killed by the queen". They calculated step by step, and Wanru knew more and more about these things.
Every day when she went to sleep, she would worry if someone would ask for her name silently in her sleep. When I wake up in the morning, I think, "Ah, it's been another day." ”
Compared with other palace maids, she is undoubtedly outstanding. Before entering the palace, she was the daughter of a high-ranking family, and she was well-educated, and she was used to seeing the intrigue in the mansion.
The previous calculations and tricks have been applied to herself now, and she knows that she will not live long.
Finally, they succeeded, and Miss Qinmei was imprisoned in the palace, waiting for Luo Chi and Qin's team to come and leave.
As soon as Qinmei leaves, Murong Linshuang will also leave.
It's time to unload the mill and kill the donkey!
She understands that for Queen Gu, the two people who know the inside story are gone, and only hers is the only one left in the palace who knows this calculation in detail.
Her existence is undoubtedly a great threat to Queen Gu.
So, she ...... Must die!
So today, the knife that has been hanging over the head is finally about to fall.
"You are also an old man, how can you be so rough in doing things?!" Queen Gu asked word by word. Every word is clearly visible, as if it is in a circle, tying a dead knot with white silk.
"Slaves and maids should die!" Wan Ru knelt on the ground, and her heart was like ashes. The knee was punctured by a porcelain shard, and the bleeding wound didn't seem to hurt at all. She didn't kowtow, she didn't beg for mercy, she just said this.
She wanted her dead...... She had no choice but to die.
Even death is a gift.
"Die, why did this palace let you die?" Queen Gu squinted her eyes and said to Wanru with a smile: "But you shocked the prince...... For the sake of your dedication to serving the palace, I will spare you the death penalty!"
Empress Gu spoke in a loud voice. As if to speak to everyone inside and outside the temple.
What?Avoid death?Wanru raised her eyes undoubtedly and looked at Empress Gu.
How is it possible, she won't leave herself to do the aftermath, there must be a hindhand behind her, what is her hindhand?
"However, capital sins can be avoided, but living sins cannot be escaped. Before Wanru could figure it out, Queen Gu's back hand came.
"Drag it down, rod fifty!"
All the kneeling in the hall turned pale with fright. Fifty ...... What's the difference between this and a cane? Not to mention a delicate girl's family, even if it's a man, it will be difficult to survive after the cane is fifty.
Wanru was still kneeling.
The upper and lower teeth trembled uncontrollably, and sure enough, it was a dead move.
She's going to confess here today.
Queen Gu didn't move, she was still sitting dignifiedly. With the posture of the superior, wait for grace to be grateful.
The two of them were at a stalemate. This time is very short for Queen Gu, just a few breaths, but for Wanru, it is very long...... How long is it? It's like a lifetime.
The Praetorian Guards received the order, and a small team ran into the temple at a brisk pace to take Wanru away.
The roaring armor and the bright weapons took away Wanru's last breath of anger.
She raised her eyes again without focus, and looked at Empress Gu, who was looking down at her.
Why is the queen smiling at the corners of her mouth?
Huh, why does the queen have a light in her eyes?
Why can't the queen hide the joy on her face?
Oh...... That's right......
I'm going to die, and if I'm dead, the world will soon be quiet.
Yes, I was originally the daughter of a criminal minister, and I was going to die when I raided my house. However, I was still young at that time, so the royal family exempted me from the death penalty and let me enter the palace as a maid.
I have changed from a lady who has no worries about food and clothing, and whose fingers do not touch the spring water, to the most inferior palace maid in the palace.
My knowledge, my pride, from that moment on, no longer had any meaning.
Thank you, at least, I'm still alive...... At least that time, alive.
Thinking about it the other way, it's okay to die, let's die, at least I can go down to reunite with my father and mother, and I can enjoy my family with them.
Oh, by the way, she said that from now on, my life will not be mine, but that of nobles.
If you let you live, you will live, and if you die, you will die......
Thunder, rain and dew, all are Jun'en!
Thank you for the gift of the queen.
Niang Niang Wan Fu Jin'an.
Mother's wish came true.
Niangniang fairy blessing will be enjoyed forever, longevity and Tianqi!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chen Xiaotian has been in a good mood lately. Very good
Finally, they repelled Wang Jingluo's coalition army, stabilized the recovered city, and finally returned to the dynasty!
But just received news that there were still enemy workers wreaking havoc in the city, assassinating courtiers and burning granaries. It seems that we need to catch these details as soon as possible.
Standing on the tower, he looked at the freshly extinguished flames and the black smoke rising to the sky on the side of the barn, ordered that the rice grain that could not be used be disposed of and fed to the livestock, and began to discuss where to transfer grain to maintain the people's livelihood.
At this time, someone led a man dressed in gray to the city tower to meet Chen Xiaotian. Seeing that everyone was discussing important matters of food and grass, he asked the people to wait.
Half an hour later, Chen Xiaotian summoned someone to come.
"Huh, why do you look so familiar, are you ......" The person who came looked very kind, but Chen Xiaotian couldn't remember where he had seen it.
"Back to Your Majesty, the slave is with Gonggong Feng. The man fell to his knees and humbly replied.
This person is the little eunuch who slipped away from the palace.
After sneaking out of Murong Linshuang's convoy, he came to find Chen Xiaotian non-stop.
"Oh, I remembered, you are ......" Chen Xiaotian remembered, this person is Xiao Fengzi's person, he appeared here, he must have been sent by Xiao Fengzi.
"Your Majesty, the servant brought a letter from Gonggong Feng to Your Majesty, please take a look at it. As he spoke, he carefully took out the letter that Father-in-law Feng had written earlier from his close-fitting backpack.
This letter is too important, and I didn't dare to leave it along the way.
