Chapter 079: The Secret Told by Empress Jia Before Her Death
"Why? I've promised you everything you want, why would you join forces with them to betray this palace? Empress Jia asked hatefully.
"No why? The queen still remembers, I once said to the mother that if you want to be the lord of the world, the mother still lacks two things, one is the time of the day, and the other is the ......" Le Ning paused and continued, "Destiny! You don't have this life after all! ”
"Destiny?" Empress Jia muttered and suddenly laughed, "Mandate of Heaven, what is Mandate of Heaven?" Le Ninghao, didn't you tell this palace that fate is never determined by heaven, but is in your own hands? ”
"Yes, I said that fate is up to you, but the queen mother, you still lose, don't you?"
"Bengu can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out, why are you doing this? Is the story you told to Hongu about the Empress false? ”
"No, what I said is true, in the long river of history in the future, there will indeed be an empress, and there will be a talented female strategist by her side, but after all, this is the only one in history, and this one is not you, not your empress."
"So, what you said about the time of day, will it really appear?" Jia asked again.
Le Ning's hazy eyes sank, pursed her lips for a long time, suddenly raised her long eyelashes, looked at Jia Hou and said categorically: "Yes, it will definitely appear, but the queen mother may not be able to wait!" ”
"Hahaha......" After listening to Jiahou, she smiled bitterly again, she sighed again and again, "Ridiculous, ridiculous, this palace has always thought that you would be a woman with great ambitions, but I didn't expect it to be so, you let them depose me today, it is also equivalent to ruining your own future, Le's Ahao, without this palace, you can only be a lowly concubine in this life, even if you are beautiful and intelligent, in this era of strict doors, you can only become a plaything in the hands of these men." ”
As she spoke, she pointed to King Qi standing outside the door, and King Zhao and Sun Xiu, who were hurrying here.
Le Ning's face turned slightly pale, and her heart almost ached, she knew that what Empress Jia said was not wrong, in this era of male power, women are just vassals who can be discarded at will like clothes, beauty and intelligence are not enough to become a weapon for her to stand out from this era and defeat worldly concepts, just like in her previous life, she worked hard to manage everything, and in the end she did not lose so completely.
Empress Jia promised her the right to surpass the family and sit on an equal footing with men, with this power, she can no longer take care of the identity of the family, and do what she wants to be, which is indeed a great temptation for her, she is moved, and even has the ambition to open up a new prosperous era with Empress Jia, and change the fate of the Eight Kings Rebellion, the Yongjia Rebellion and the future Wuhu Chaohua, but she still failed to do so after all, she still succumbed to her heart after all.
"Queen Mother, the unification of the regime has never been suppressed by brutality, you know how to weigh the art of the emperor, know how to appoint meritocracy, but the punishment is tyrannical, and the people are prey, this is not the way I want to see the country, yes, you have this ability, and even I believe that you can do no worse than the empress I said, but I don't believe that you will be a good empress."
"And what about your ideals? In order to depose me, you have even buried your own ideals? ”
"People are born free, and everywhere in the shackles, no one can do what God can do after becoming a god, in fact, the queen mother said well, in this era of strict doors, it is indeed difficult for me to change my identity and family, but fate is this thing, never determined by identity and family, ideal is a real action, as long as you are willing to do it, it will always exist, disappear because you gave up it, but I will never give up!"
After listening to this, Empress Jia was stunned for a moment, and then praised with a smile: "It's so good, it's so good!" If people have no illusions, how can they live again, my fantasy is going to stop today, anyway, this palace is a death today, it is better to tell you a secret about your mother before you die! ”
As soon as he mentioned his mother, Le Ning's hazy expression froze.
Jia Hou said: "You have been looking through the classics in the library for the past few days, and you must be very curious about your mother Ning's past and identity, right?" ”
"Your mother Ning was originally not surnamed Ning, she was the daughter of a famous general in Eastern Wu, after Emperor Wu invaded Wu, he ordered someone to select five thousand beauties from Wu to serve in the palace, and your mother was among them, your mother is the same as you, she is a proud and temperamental sister-in-law, and she will never be willing to be a woman in the emperor's harem, it was she who turned to the palace for help and let the palace save her."
"However, the state of Wu was destroyed, your mother had a hatred of shame for the country, and finally asked me to recommend her to enter the palace with her talents, and approached Emperor Wu as a priest, at the beginning, she was also a woman dressed as a man, and stayed in the palace for two years, and offered a disaster relief strategy for the country, Emperor Wu rewarded her very much, and gave her great respect, but then I don't know why, after Emperor Wu found out that she was a woman, he insisted on taking her in the harem, your mother naturally refused, Emperor Wu saw that she was smart, so he did not force it, But for her to build a lot of buildings, not only built hundreds of golden pavilions, but also built a star observatory as high as twelve zhang, your mother was also played by the ministers, as a **disaster country, Emperor Wu can't, so he released her out of the palace, after your mother left the palace, Emperor Wu sent people to recall her several times, but I don't know what happened, those who were sent out went to your mother into several pursuits! ”
"You always thought that your mother Ning's death was the work of this palace, didn't you? Yes, Bengong did have this kind of thought, wanting to recruit her in the palace, but she has a stubborn personality and refuses to cooperate with Bengong, although Bengong forced her, but she didn't touch her in the slightest, why she committed suicide by taking poison, Bengong doesn't know. ”
"However, Hongu knows one thing. Emperor Wu seemed to have heard someone say that if the imperial heir is born to your mother, he will be the son of heaven of the prosperous Jin family, so Emperor Wu once wanted your mother to sleep in the emperor who was still the prince at the time and gave birth to the imperial heir, but your mother asked Jiang Meiren to go to the prince's bedroom instead of herself. ”
"Emperor Wu was very angry when he found out and forbade your mother to marry for the rest of her life, but later, on the way to find your mother, they found that she not only married, but also gave birth to a son and a daughter."
"You should be able to think by now, why was your eldest brother assassinated? And you'll ...... later I'm afraid it will repeat your mother's similar fate! ”
After listening to Empress Jia's words, Le Ninghao could not be shocked, she had indeed seen a record of her mother in the classics of the Library Pavilion, and even a page in the emperor's living record was dedicated to her serving Emperor Hui, but she didn't expect it to be such a fact.
So who is involved in the mother's death? If it weren't for Empress Jia, who would have forced her mother to death?
Seeing her expression, King Qi hurriedly ordered the people around him to pour a glass of gold dust wine and force Empress Jia to drink it, but Empress Jia didn't drink it, so the two eunuchs broke her mouth vigorously and forcibly poured it down.
The poison attacked, and in a burst of abdominal pain, Empress Jia laughed loudly, suddenly looked at Le Ning Hazy and said: "Le Ning Ahao, this palace will not be mistaken, you are an ambitious woman, and you are unwilling to cooperate with this palace, is your ambition far more than that, hehehe...... This palace can imagine that the world will be in chaos because of you in the future, it's a pity, this palace can't see the day when the mountain and river cave Kaisheji overturned! ”
Empress Jia's last sentence was proud, Le Ning couldn't help but clench his fists, his nerves tensed, and at this moment, King Zhao suddenly stepped forward and said to King Qi: "Empress Jia is right, this sister-in-law is scheming and beautiful, it will definitely be a disaster for the country and the people in the future, this palace change, you and I were almost calculated by her, it is hard to guarantee that she will not use this to deal with us in the future, it is better to kill her to prevent future troubles!" ”
After that, he ordered the guards around him: "Come on, release the arrows, and kill her!" ”
