"Wei Lang, what did you say?"

The emperor's voice sounded slowly in the main hall.

"Your Majesty!" The concubine cried bitterly, knelt down and sat on the ground, almost fainting, "The concubine is willing to die..."

The cry broke the stagnation in the temple, but it caused everyone's hearts to fall into the ice cellar.

It's finally about to begin....unstoppable...

The king of Jin'an looked at him, took a step forward and was about to open his mouth, when there was a sharp passage from the inner servant outside the door.

"The Queen Mother has arrived."

It seemed that the thousand-pound door was opened by the chamberlains, and the queen, who had not been out of the door for a long time and got out of bed and walked, slowly walked in with the support of the two palace maids.

The queen was wearing a dress, and the phoenix crown looked more and more thin, as if a gust of wind could blow it down.

After a moment of silence, the concubine wept and saluted the queen.

"The concubine is guilty."

Voices rang out in the main hall.

The concubine couldn't help but cover her mouth, with a little panic, she actually said this, how could she say that she was guilty?

"Jing Rong, what are you doing here? Get up. The Queen Mother said.

"The concubine is guilty." The queen said again.

The concubine breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that the queen said it, but she immediately became nervous again, the queen confessed her guilt, did she refuse to give up?

The Queen Mother obviously didn't think about it anymore, and her face was a little complicated.

"Stand down." The Emperor spoke.

Everyone in the hall rushed out in a swarm of flocks as if they were pardoned and didn't care about the Son of Heaven, and everyone who walked out of the hall was pale and sweating, as if they had walked around the ghost gate.

Only the family of the Son of Heaven was left in the main hall, and the hall became more and more empty, and the door of the hall was closed. The sun doesn't seem to shine in. Dusky.

"Jing Rong. Get up quickly, you're not in good shape. The matter of the sixth brother...."

The Queen Mother said, her voice trembling, she looked at the queen, her eyes sad but with a little determination.

The hall froze again for a moment, and everyone's breathing seemed to stop.

"It was an accident."

In just four words, the verdict of this incident was announced, and it also showed the attitude of the Queen Mother.

As soon as this statement came out. The concubine still hid her face and wept, and the emperor sat on the couch expressionlessly.

Once again, the room froze.

A smile slowly appeared on the face of the king of Jin'an, standing in front of the couch, the young man's silent laughter looked very weird.

"It's not an accident."

The king of Jin'an, who opened his mouth but had not yet spoken, was stunned and looked at the queen who robbed him of his words.

The queen who was kneeling on the ground raised her head when she said this, stretched out her hand to take off the phoenix crown, and the bundle of hair suddenly fell apart, and the white hair spots in the scattered hair were clearly visible.

The concubine couldn't help but reach out to cover her mouth, and almost exclaimed.

The empress was younger than the emperor, and although she had been ill for a long time, she was well maintained. has good hair, but I didn't expect it to be so white at this time.

It's these days that are already in vain. Or did you suddenly turn white when you heard the news?

The queen pushed the phoenix crown forward, and the palace maid on the other side also pushed out the queen's seal.

"Huo's Jingrong, please resign as queen." The queen leaned over and said.

The Queen Mother's expression became gloomy, and the emperor was still expressionless and could not see joy and anger.

"Jing Rong, what do you mean by that?" The Queen Mother said slowly.

The queen raised her head, and smiled miserably on her sick, withered face.

"Niangniang, it's Jing Rong's fault." She also said slowly, "It's not an accident, it's Jing Rong's fault, if it weren't for Jing Rong's praise and coaxing the sixth brother to be pure and filial, how could he be on the mountain in winter to please me, he wouldn't fall and fall and get hurt, he is a child, he doesn't understand anything, he is a child, and a child raised by me after his biological mother died early, Niangniang, he is a little child, but he understands everything, he wants to please me, please people, Niangniang, Your Majesty, he is just a child, I am an adult, I didn't raise him well, coaxed and indulged him, in fact, Actually, I don't like so plum blossoms, I don't like it at all..."

The queen stretched out her hand to caress her heart and patted her heavily, her speech became faster and faster, and her expression became more and more excited, on the contrary, the queen mother's expression relaxed, and the resoluteness in her eyes disappeared, replaced by compassion.

"Jing Rong, Jing Rong, don't talk about it, this has nothing to do with you, it's an accident..."

"It's not an accident!" The queen let out a sharp shout, reached out and grabbed her shirt, her eyes widened, "It's me, it's me who hurt him!" I hurt him! I don't like those plum blossoms, and I don't like to be served by him to take medicine, I don't like it, but I pretend to like it, I want everyone to see that I like it, I hurt him! If I had told him earlier and reprimanded him, he wouldn't have gone to fold plums, how could he have gone to fold plums! He is still a child, but I coaxed him to fold the plum with his own hands, only in this way can his filial piety be shown, he is still a child, I hurt him, I hurt him..."

The queen's voice reverberated in the hall more and more sharply, reaching out to tug at her clothes and grab her hair.

"Hold her, hold her!" The Queen Mother finally got up and shouted.

The concubine also cried and rushed over, hugged the queen's hand and shouted Niangniang.

The emperor was no longer expressionless, and as the empress spoke, his expression was depressed and sad.

"No, it's my fault," he said, "overkill, honey is arsenic, he's still a child, he has a pure heart, I praise him for his pure filial piety, he respects me and pleases me, I hurt him..."

The Queen Mother stamped her feet.

"Your Majesty, don't make trouble! It was an accident! In this life, who can guarantee that it will be good? Drinking water will choke to death! How can it be said that it is the fault of the person who made him drink water? Is it the water's fault? She shouted.

The queen over there was already grief-stricken and almost crazy, and the concubine couldn't hold it back.

The temple was filled with weeping and shouting.

"Doctor, doctor!"

The Queen Mother shouted urgently.

The door of the main hall was opened, the sunlight poured in again, and the palace maids and physicians also poured in, and the noise filled the palace again, although it was noisy and chaotic, but it dispelled the cold and suffocation of the right talent, and filled it with the freshness of human life.

The King of Jin'an County stood motionless as Fang Cai, looking at it with a blank expression, watching the vicissitudes of life change in the blink of an eye.

He didn't look back. Slowly retreat like this until you hit the couch and sit down slowly. The child behind him slept quietly.

The day is fine. The wind rose at night, and the night wind shuttled through the palace, whistling high and low like a ghost crying.

The door was pushed open, and the chubby figure huddled in the innermost part of the couch began to tremble.

Are you going to kill him?

Is it a man or a ghost?

"Fourth brother..."The female voice sounded outside the tent, the curtain was lifted, and the concubine walked in.

The palace maid lowered her head and lit the palace lamps on both sides, and the room became bright, shining on the tired face of the concubine.

Lift the bed tent. Looking at the person who was trembling in the quilt, a trace of impatience flashed in the concubine's eyes, she glanced around, and the palace maids immediately bowed their heads and retreated.

The concubine sat on the couch and reached out to lift the quilt.

The eldest prince wanted to run away as if he had seen a ghost, but was pulled by the concubine's hand.

"What are you afraid of?" The concubine shouted.

This kind of reprimand overwhelmed the fear in the heart of the eldest prince, and he didn't dare to move anymore.

The concubine took a deep breath, reached out to grab the eldest prince, and patted his back with one hand, while lowering her soft voice.

"Okay, okay, it's okay, it's okay." She said reassuringly. "Sixth brother is not dead..."

When these words came out, the eldest prince, who was originally more relaxed, suddenly tensed up. was about to crawl away in an instant, but the concubine held him down, and the mother and son looked at each other, and the horror on their faces was quite equal.

He's not dead... He's not dead....whether someone else has to know that it was he who let him go....

The eldest prince's face was pale and trembling.

To be so scared, to hear that you are not dead and not to be happy and afraid, that means....

The turbulent waves in the heart of the concubine Niangniang.

What the hell is going on...

"The two princes left from the emperor, passed by the imperial garden, and went to pick plum blossoms...."

In the queen's palace, a chamberlain knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice, and then raised his head to add.

"This is still proposed by the second prince, and the eldest prince was reluctant at first, but then he was said by the attendant next to him, and then he followed...."

The empress, who was carried back from the second emperor's womb, remained motionless and seemed to have fallen asleep.

The chamberlain did not dare to look up again and continued.

“… Later, they went up the mountain together, the eldest prince asked the attendants to pick it, and the second prince picked it himself, and then the second prince talked to the eldest prince, and asked him to see the plum blossoms, and then... Then the soil and rocks over there were loosened, and the second prince accidentally stepped on the air...."

"No, he was pushed down by the eldest prince."

A voice interrupted him.

The chamberlain lowered his head and didn't even look at it.

In the shadow of the couch, the figure of the king of Jin'an is shallow.

At that time, the servants who were serving had been killed with a rod, and there were few people in the world who knew the specific passage, but the king of Jin'an actually knew, what did this mean?

Either there is no secret in the palace leaking from all sides, or this county king's hands and eyes, which were originally dispensable and just an ornament, have been all over the palace.

Either way, it's not a good thing.

"Go on."

The queen's voice came, breaking the stagnation in the room.

"The second prince stepped on the air, the eldest prince reached out and grabbed it, but in the end, he didn't have enough strength, and it was too late for the others to rush over..."

There was silence inside, except for the howling of the night wind outside.

"Go down." The queen said.

The waiter hurriedly kowtowed, and when he closed the door, his already soaked back was blown by the cold wind, but he was still relieved, and looked left and right and disappeared into the night with his head down.

The indoor lamp was like a bean, and the queen on the couch had already sat up, although her face was still yellow and her hair was hanging down, but her face did not have the madness of Bai Li, and there was not even a trace of sadness.

"How many years you have been in the palace, and you have lived so well, I thought that no matter what happened, you didn't need help from others."

The queen's voice echoed faintly.

The king of Jin'an County knelt in front of the couch, his head hanging down to hide his expression.

"I really didn't expect you to kill yourself today." The queen continued.

The kneeling King of Jin'an, who was sitting at his side, clenched his hand tightly.

"What do you think is the point of you doing this? In addition to giving away your own life? ”

The queen's voice then fell from the top of her head, because the voice of the queen who had been sick for a long time was not beautiful, especially after a cry and screaming during the day, hoarse and weak.

The second prince was injured, this is a fact that everyone knows, no one will take the initiative to question how a prince is injured, especially when the queen mother has announced that it was an accident.

In this case, the king of Jin'an still had to ask, and the words of the question were so terrifying.

What did the eldest prince say?

What he was questioning, everyone knew in their hearts.

Kill your brother.

No matter what the final result is, this sentence alone is enough to mess with the world's mouth and send the eldest prince to the forefront of the limelight, not to mention whether the Empress Dowager will spare him, even the emperor will not spare him.

How could he not know, of course he knew, he had lived so long with trepidation and caution, read so many history books, and carefully watched the ups and downs of the fighting between the officials of the DPRK and China, what else did he not know.

He knew that if he opened this mouth, he would become an unforgivable person, and the desire to be free would come to naught when he had planned step by step to get out of the palace safely.

He also thought that as long as he knew the things and understood the truth, he could see through them and let them go, but it turned out that it was not, it was not.

Some things are really...

"Unwilling"

The king of Jin'an leaned over and kowtowed, his voice hoarse and choked and spit out three words.

Unwilling! Unwilling! Unwilling!
