Chapter 2017: Killing the Son
"Scattered?"
The emperor actually answered the queen's question: "It is a miracle medicine from the Western Regions, which has a strong pain-relieving effect, but taking it in excess will lead to confusion, hallucinations, and even death from exhaustion." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"How can there be such a thing?" The queen looked at the emperor in disbelief.
The emperor sneered: "I once swore that I would never stretch my hands and eyes to Tianyi Cliff, so I'm afraid that only King Sui can answer this question." ”
But King Sui wouldn't say it.
"Then quickly stop the medicine and let the imperial doctor diagnose her!" The queen was in a hurry.
"I can't break it. This drug is addictive, and once the drug is suddenly stopped, I am afraid that she will die faster. Besides, the imperial doctors we sent, do they dare to accept them? ”
Xue Ying was a little confused: So the matter of not sending the imperial doctor is the emperor's stinginess and refusal to send it, or is the king of Sui mind and refuses to ask for it? Why is it that the two sides are not very different?
The queen suddenly turned her gaze to her and asked hopefully, "Do you know medical skills?" ”
Xue Ying hurriedly shook her head: "No, no, it's just that sometimes I dig herbs with people, and then I learn a little bit of fur." On this point, I mentioned it last time when I reported to the emperor about the situation of Ganxiao Temple, but the emperor still raised questions:
"Just learn a little bit of fur to know how to concentrate and scatter?"
"The master who took me to dig herbs once traveled to the Western Regions."
The emperor did not pursue this question again: "How long can their remaining concentration be scattered." ”
Xue Ying replied: "It's not much, and the later it gets, the greater the amount of concentration will be." ”
The emperor asked, "If she stops the medicine, how long will she live?" ”
"This ......" question, Xue Ying couldn't answer. First, she was not a doctor, and she only knew a little about the concentration of the mind, and second, she hadn't even properly diagnosed and treated the woman, but only in a hurry, and there was too little information she could get.
The queen suddenly came over and took her hand: "Can you find the concentration of the gods?" ”
Xue Ying hurriedly shook her head.
"That'...... How long will she live? Decade? Five years? The queen asked in a trembling voice.
This speculation was too outrageous, and Xue Ying had to correct it euphemistically: "If you are very addicted, I am afraid that you will not live for a month after stopping the drug." "Actually, a month is already an optimistic estimate.
"A month?!" The queen's face turned pale. The emperor behind the desk also suddenly cast a sharp gaze.
"No......" The queen stumbled and almost fell.
"The Queen?" Xue Ying hurriedly supported her.
But the queen pushed her away, walked a few hurried steps in the direction of the emperor, and asked, "So you are going to kill the hidden king now?" You want to torture her, you want to make her miserable, so you want to kill her child, right? ”
"Queen!" The emperor scolded sharply.
"The child is innocent, you can let him go!" The queen pleaded.
"He's not a kid anymore." The emperor's voice was gloomy, "Such a calamity, I have let him live for so many years, it is merciful enough." ”
"He's your flesh and blood, how can you bear it?" The queen shook her head in disbelief.
"Queen!" The emperor took the case, "I have made a decision." ”
"You don't!" The queen suddenly shouted, "I don't believe that you have really become so cold-blooded, and your heart will hurt if you kill the hidden king." ”
"I won't." The anger and hatred in the emperor's eyes flashed, and then they were quickly replaced by coldness, and a few words were squeezed out from between his teeth, "I will definitely not." ”
Xue Ying, who had been confused, finally clarified a little bit of thinking: the woman next to King Sui was really the one that the Queen Mother said, the woman who originally belonged to the emperor, but went to King Sui's side with the intervention of the Queen Mother, and the hidden king kneeling outside was the child of the woman and the emperor.
A child born to a woman who betrayed herself will naturally not be favored by the emperor.
Now that the woman is dying, the emperor's anger has not yet been vented, so he wants to kill the woman's child before she dies as revenge.
It's just that the hidden king is obviously also his child, how can he bear it?
No, he can, because he, like Xue Qi, treats his own flesh and blood more cruelly than his enemies.
Although she had never seen the Hidden King, Xue Ying's heart suddenly rose with a sense of sympathy. Abandoned by his mother, disgusted by his father, and finally put to death by his own father, such a fate is a huge tragedy no matter who it is placed on.
Even under his foil, Xue Ying began to feel that she was lucky. At least she still has friends from Jiuquan Bezhuang and Ganxiao Temple, but what about him? He was born in the royal family, and he has a father like that, so I'm afraid there is not even a person around him to speak, right?
If you die like this, then this life is not just a "tragedy" that can be described by the word "tragedy".
The queen knelt down slowly: "In this case, please ask the emperor for permission and let the concubine cut him off with her own hands." ”
The emperor frowned slightly: "What are you talking about?" ”
The queen said softly: "Don't let the emperor do it, and don't let him die outside your palace." If he must die today, let me do it. ”
"Nonsense!"
"The emperor can harden his heart now, but what about later? There will always be a day when you will regret and feel guilty, in this case, it is better for this sin to be borne by the concubine. ”
"In your eyes, I've always been that hard-mouthed and soft-hearted wretched wretch."
"The concubine believes that the emperor is not the kind of person who can kill his own children and remain indifferent." The queen's tone was firm.
The emperor sat down slowly, and after a while, he said tiredly: "You are wrong, I am that kind of person." ”
"The Emperor's ......"
"That's it!" The emperor waved his hand, "You go back." ”
The queen didn't move, and the emperor raised his voice: "Come on, send the queen back to the palace." ”
The queen's shoulders shook a few times, and suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood with a "poof". The emperor was so frightened that he hurriedly ran down.
"Queen?"
"Your Majesty," the Empress fell into the Emperor's arms, grabbing his sleeve, her pale face looking sad, "You have done too many things that make you miserable, so, let him go, let yourself go, just this time, I beg you, okay?" ”
The emperor gritted his teeth, and there was a slight flicker of water under his eyes. Finally, he finally turned to the guard outside the door and said, "The king is derelict in his duties, and he will be fined for one year and three months of reflection." ”
Hearing this, the queen finally showed a relieved smile, and then tilted her head and fainted.
"Queen? Empress! The emperor was shocked, "Quickly pass on the imperial doctor!" ”
There was chaos in the palace for a while, but Xue Ying didn't see much, because she was quickly sent back to the Jian'an Hou Mansion. It's just that although the person is back, his soul is still immersed in the shock just now.
If there is no queen mother, I am afraid that the hidden king will die today, right? However, after kneeling in the snow for so long, I don't know if his life is still there?
When she almost died, it was the third lady Liao Yunxi who rescued her. The father wants to kill the child, but the mother-in-law who is not his own is trying her best to save the child, this world is really strange.
