Chapter 118: The Underground Palace
"The poison you used is so ruthless, but only three cups will kill the mother concubine, but I can only drink a small sip, but let me live under the control of this poison for the rest of my life, do you know how I survived to this day? Do you know that when the poison method, the feeling of 10,000 ants drinking blood and destroying bones in your body together? I rely on human blood! Those subjects, those who embrace me, all say that I am the Ninety-Five, the incarnation of the Heavenly Dragon, but the most sacred true Son of Heaven in their mouths has to live on human blood.

"The mourners know. "When Empress Dowager Pei just said, she always called herself me, she always felt that when it came to the things of the year, she always had no face to call herself mourning, as Mu Yuanan said, everything she had was snatched from her sister's hands, if there was no her, it should be Mu Yuanan's biological mother who is now sitting in this Shoukang Palace and enjoying the honor of the Queen Mother.
"Do you still have the face to call yourself a mourner?" Mu Yuanan was also dissatisfied with Empress Dowager Pei's subconscious self-title, and the strength in his hand also increased a little, he did have a desire to understand Empress Dowager Pei in front of this Buddha, so that the Buddha could see how his most loyal believer mutilated human life back then, but he still held back.
Empress Dowager Pei had a fearless expression, as if she had been waiting for this day for a long time, when Concubine Shu just died, and when Liu Changyan's family also died on the battlefield because of Dashun's troops going north, she used to think that she was the most uncomfortable and the most painful time, but no, the most uncomfortable thing is these years, it is the years that seem to bury all the stories in the depths, but she can still wake up from her dreams, and when her heart is condemned, it is her most difficult.
"Jiaguan, do you know, you are not born to kill people, you always retain the last trace of humanity in your heart, so you are destined to be used. This is what my sister said to her back then, and now that I think about it, at that time, my sister had already seen that sooner or later she would be reproached by her conscience.
"The matter has come to this, some of the truth has been revealed, if the emperor wants to mourn the life of the family, mourn the family, and have no regrets. ”
"Take your life?" Mu Yuanan suddenly let go of his hand, with a vicious and playful look on his face, "Isn't this too cheap for you? ”
Empress Dowager Pei was silent, she understood that Mu Yuan'an, his people must have a purpose in doing things, Mu Yuanan did not detour around the corner, and said directly: "But you have to take out his words, the time of the Yuan family's incident is a little strange, but I have checked all the records related to Prince Su's palace in and out of the capital, but I have not found the corresponding clues, this must be someone outside the capital to help him, I want you to set out his words, I must know, in this court, who else is his lackey." ”
Empress Dowager Pei sneered: "The emperor is too proud of the mourning family, what the emperor can't ask, how can he ask just an old woman from the mourning family?"
Mu Yuanan turned sideways, half of his face was hidden in the shadows, looking extremely gloomy: "I said, I don't like you to call yourself a mourner again." ”
Empress Dowager Pei suddenly crawled out of the loss and guilt just now, if she said that she had only been unloading all the armed hedgehogs before, but at this time, when it came to Mu Qinyi, she was like a woman general who was ready to respond to the enemy at any time, because she was poured into the soup of the child, she could not have children for the rest of her life, she could not take Mu Yuanan's own biological son, if it wasn't for her sister who was pregnant with Mu Yuanan, she would not have been forced into the palace by her father, so she resented Mu Yuanan.
As for the little prince of Concubine Jing, who is a good sister, although she likes it, she doesn't dare to be too close, after all, the biological mother of the little prince is Concubine Jing, and she can't beat her.
But when Mu Qinyi came to the National Temple, he was like an outcast, he was sent out because of bad luck as soon as he was born, and he was very grateful to the Empress Dowager Pei for giving him a little kindness, in the National Temple, in the most difficult days, they already had a mother-son friendship, including later, Mu Qinyi went in and out of the battlefield, killing the enemy left and right, and the Empress Dowager Pei would miss it day and night like a mother worried about her son.
Empress Dowager Pei raised her head slightly, and an unpredictable smile appeared on her face: "But the mourning family, after all, it is still the mourning family, everyone in the world knows that the mourning family is the queen mother, doesn't it?"
"That's what you snatched from your mother!" Mu Yuanan was completely enraged by Empress Dowager Pei, but he quickly calmed down, he knew that he had almost fallen into Empress Dowager Pei's trap, he turned his head, no longer looked at Empress Dowager Pei's face, and just said coldly: "Later, blindfolded, I will take you to see Mu Qinyi, you better do what I tell you to do honestly, after all, you must know that Mu Chenghuang's life is still in my hands." ”
Empress Dowager Pei wanted to try to keep her face calm, but she couldn't help but purse the corners of her lips, and when Mu Yuanan saw this, she said seductively: "I think you should have guessed it, that's right, Mu Chenghuang is not the daughter of Concubine Ru at all, she is the medicine man I brought back from Tianchi Country at a great price, and she is the daughter of the emperor and Empress Liu Lumei of Tianchi Kingdom, in other words, she is the granddaughter of your old lover Liu Changyan, you are so affectionate to your old lover, there is no reason to risk his granddaughter's life." ”
"You, despicable!" This is the only thing that Empress Dowager Pei can come up with to describe Mu Yuanan, Mu Yuanan listened to it, but did not show a trace of dissatisfaction, as if this was admiration, nodded frequently: "Then thank you aunt for giving me this despicable opportunity, come on, take the Queen Mother blindfolded and take away." ”
Empress Dowager Pei was obviously pushed out by two people under Gao Yuan's hand, and Mama Gu, who was guarding the door, saw this and immediately greeted her, and she subconsciously protected Empress Dowager Pei: "Your Majesty, what is this going to do?"
"It's none of your business, step aside. ”
Mama Gu refused to retreat, and Empress Dowager Pei also lightly ordered: "Huanzhi, you go away." ”
"Queen Mother. Mama Gu shook her head, she had served Empress Dowager Pei for so many years, and she had never seen Empress Dowager Pei like this.
"Huanzhi, wait for me to come back. Empress Dowager Pei smiled slightly, as if she wanted Mama Gu to rest assured, this action was seen by Mu Yuan'an, but it was just a mockery: "The Empress Dowager is really optimistic, plateau, blindfolded the Empress Dowager." ”
A thick layer of black cloth was stacked and stacked, repeated several layers to ensure that no light could penetrate at all, Empress Dowager Pei was "invited" into a carriage, although she was blindfolded, but Empress Dowager Pei could still feel that the carriage was deliberately going around the bend, and the continuous seven turns and eight turns were just to make Empress Dowager Pei unable to remember the road.
Thinking about it, Empress Dowager Pei has spent decades in this palace, she is very familiar with every grass and tree in this palace, if this carriage does not leave the palace, then Mu Yuanan must take her to a certain place in the palace, but although this palace is large, if you want to hide a person quietly, and you are also an important minister, a prince, it is indeed a little difficult.
The carriage suddenly stopped in a very cold place, and the Empress Dowager Pei couldn't help but shiver when she got off the carriage, Gao Yuan supported him beside him, and reminded: "The Empress Dowager is careful, there will be cold times later." ”
Empress Dowager Pei stepped on this soft and loose land, she tried hard to recall, where would there be such soft land in the palace, but immediately, she was greeted by Gao Yuan on a soft sedan chair, because she couldn't see it, Gao Yuan had been supporting her very carefully, so that she didn't even have a chance to pretend to fall down and delay time.
I have to admit that Mu Yuanan is a very cautious person, not only the carriage is going in circles, but the soft sedan chair is also going in circles, I don't know how long it took, the sedan chair stopped, and someone immediately came over to carry the Empress Dowager Pei, Gao Yuan motioned to the Empress Dowager Pei to let the person carry it in, but the Empress Dowager Pei's hand suddenly stopped, and said lightly: "The mourning family can go by themselves, without being carried by others." ”
Gao Yuan's tone was flattering and smiling: "The Queen Mother, this is also what the emperor ordered, the emperor was afraid that the Queen Mother's phoenix body would be tired, so he specially instructed the slave to do so, the Queen Mother, don't embarrass the slave." ”
Empress Dowager Pei came all the way without touching the ground, and she couldn't even capture the last information.
However, the only thing that makes Empress Dowager Pei sensitive is the temperature, as Gao Yuan said, it is colder here than the place where the soft sedan chair was before, Gao Yuan saw that Empress Dowager Pei shivered very exaggeratedly, and said: "Come on, pick up a fox fur cloak for the Queen Mother." ”
Empress Dowager Pei frowned slightly and said: "No, the temperature is still okay now, but no matter how cold it is, the mourning family may not be able to stand it, is it going to be even colder later?"
Gao Yuan didn't answer explicitly, but just smiled: "It's always good to be prepared." ”
The footsteps of the person carrying the Empress Dowager Pei are very steady, and the Empress Dowager Pei almost can't feel going up and down the stairs, but as Gao Yuan said, the Empress Dowager Pei only feels that the surroundings are getting colder and colder, and she feels as if she is underground, the gloomy and cool feeling that comes from the center of the earth is different from standing outside to blow the wind, always with a damp breath.
I don't know how long I walked, Gao Yuan suddenly stopped, signaled the eunuch who was carrying the Queen Mother on his back to stop, and then said to the Queen Mother: "The Queen Mother, it's here." ”
Empress Dowager Pei took off the black cloth that was blindfolded, but she didn't think that her eyes would be uncomfortable with the sudden light, because here is the same as the effect of covering the black cloth, it is also very dark, this is a long corridor, there are some reliefs carved on the stone wall, and there is a candle every five zhang, flickering and jumping in this obscure corridor.
Gao Yuan made a gesture towards the end of the corridor, signaling Empress Dowager Pei to step forward, Empress Dowager Pei slowly moved her steps, and at the end was a circular arch, and the candle flame in it seemed to be brighter, setting off the entire doorway to shine.
But the closer she got, the more Empress Dowager Pei smelled a bloody breath, she suddenly sped up and walked a few steps, and rushed to the arch, but what caught her eye was Mu Qinyi, whose arms were hung up by iron cables, and who knelt on the ground on her knees, covered in blood. ...
