Chapter 150: The Cuckoo of Blood

The cry of the child "wow" in the Jade Immortal Palace, listening to the ears of the people waiting outside the hall, a few families were happy and a few were sad. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The Empress Dowager clenched her fists tightly in her hands, eagerly looking at the door of the temple that was about to open, waiting for the news of that misfortune to come out.

The emperor wanted to break in several times, but he couldn't help it. If you rush in at this time, you will lose the emperor's prestige, anyway, you have already heard the child's cry, what if you are one step late. However, it seemed that the more he waited, the more wrong it became, and not only did the closed door of the temple not open, but even the sound inside was gone, as if it were an empty temple inside.

The Queen Mother also felt that something was wrong, everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and wonder what the situation is in the palace. It stands to reason that after the child is born, everything that should be dealt with has been dealt with, and it should come out anyway, but it seems that there is no movement in the temple at all. Father-in-law Ma got the emperor's instructions and stepped forward and shouted: "Guifei Niangniang, Guifei Niangniang? There was no movement in the inner room, and he continued to shout: "Biyue, Tian'er, want to be tolerant?" ”

No one responded, nothing but the voice of Ma Gonggong. The Queen Mother got up slowly, walked to the emperor's side, and asked puzzledly: "What's the matter with this concubine, why is there no movement in the inner room at all?" ”

The emperor pointed to the door and said, "Open the door." ”

Ma Gonggong stepped forward and wanted to push the door open, but found that he couldn't push it open. Turning back to the emperor, he said, "Your Majesty, the door seems to be locked from the inside." ”

What do you do when you lock the door? The emperor was puzzled, took a few steps forward, and slammed the door a few times, "Moyu, Moyu?" There was still no response in the back room, and the Queen Mother's face was not much better, so she ordered, "Come on, kick the door open." ”

The emperor took a few steps back, and several little eunuchs hurriedly stepped forward and slammed the door hard. After more than a dozen bangs, the sturdy wooden door was finally opened, and several little eunuchs could not contain their momentum and fell into the hall. Tilting their heads and fainting for a while, when they came back to their senses, several little eunuchs were about to get up, but they were frightened by the scene in front of them.

The emperor outside the hall couldn't help frowning when he saw the expressions of several little eunuchs, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Gonggong Ma took the lead in walking into the hall, looked at the sluggish expressions of several little eunuchs, and asked, "What are you doing, don't you get up and go out?" ”

A little father-in-law raised his finger tremblingly and pointed ahead, but he couldn't say anything, and his frightened eyes were as white as seeing Bai Wuchang in the daytime. Ma Gonggong looked in the direction he pointed, and when he looked at it, his shocked expression was no less than that of a few little eunuchs on the ground. Cover your mouth with your fingers before your brain to avoid screaming.

"What?" The emperor frowned, why did even Grandpa Ma have this expression? He strode into the house, followed the line of sight of Gonggong Ma, and couldn't help but be so shocked by the sight in front of him that he couldn't find any words.

In the hall, Imperial Doctor Zhang fell in the corner of the outer room, and there were a few little eunuchs lying beside him. Ma Gonggong walked over, kicked them a few times, and shouted, "Get up, get up." But they didn't react at all, like a dead man.

This abnormal phenomenon shocked the emperor, and he hurriedly walked into the room, but when he saw the scene in front of him, his expression changed sharply. Moyu's personal palace maid Biyue lay on the side of the bed, Tian'er sat under the corner of the table with her head down, wanting to lie down, and some of the others were lying under the table, and the two midwives were lying on the floor on all fours. Everyone is unconscious as if they are asleep and having good dreams. As for Mo Yu, she was lying quietly on the bed, her hair was messy, she was sweating profusely, and the sheets on the bed were dyed blood red piece by piece.

The queen mother and the concubines who followed in saw everything in front of them, and in addition to being shocked, they didn't know what was going on. The emperor hurriedly walked to the edge of the bed, grabbed Moyu's hand and shook it: "Moyu, Moyu, wake up, wake up!" ”

Concubine Shu also stepped forward and shook Biyue beside the bed and said, "Biyue, wake up, think about it, wake up quickly, what's going on here?" ”

No matter how much they shouted, the sleeping man never woke up. The shouts were still rushing to the sky just now, and all of a sudden it became like it had experienced a catastrophe.

The Queen Mother looked around the room and asked in a cold voice, "What about the child?" ”

Only then did everyone react, yes, what about the child? From the time they entered the temple until now, they were all looking at everything in front of them in shock, and their attention was focused on waking up these people, but they forgot about it. What about the newborn little prince?

Only then did the emperor react, looked around, and didn't see the child's figure, so he shouted: "Don't look for it soon." Then the people dispersed and began to look for the children in every corner of the room.

The Queen Mother walked slowly to the edge of the bed, squinting slightly at the person lying on the bed, seeing that she was sleeping deeply, as if she had lost her breath. She couldn't help but reach out and slowly approach her snort, trying to prove her conjecture.

"What are you doing, Queen Mother?"

A cold drink behind her scared her hand, she slowly straightened up, and said, "What is the emperor anxious about, the mourning family just wants to take a good look at her." Then he turned around, looked at the cold emperor opposite with a smile, and said, "What does the emperor think the mourning family wants to do?" ”

He walked past her, walked to the edge of the bed, and caged the cup on Mo Yu's body, brushed away the fine strands of hair stuck to her mountain, and gently wiped the fine sweat on her face with his sleeve. said: "Don't worry, the queen mother, Moyu just fainted." He saw it very clearly just now, the Queen Mother didn't just want to see her, was she sure that Moyu was dead?

"Ah......h

This voice came from Concubine Xian. Everyone followed her line of sight, and on the dresser under the window of the house, a pot of blood-red flowers bloomed in the light. The petals are as bright as blood, and the direction in which the flowers bloom is exactly opposite the head of the black jade. Like a bloodthirsty ghost, it opens its bloody jaws and tries to swallow its prey.

Someone lost his voice and said, "Azalea? ”

Rhododendron is a flower that grows in the mountains and fields, and the flowering period is between March and April. It's September, why is this azalea blooming again?

The Queen Mother walked over to the dresser, stood still in front of the dresser, looked coldly at the pot of delicate blood-red cuckoos on the table, and said in a deep voice: "Is this the legendary blood-cripping cuckoo?" ”

"Bloody Cuckoo ......."

Legend has it that there is a bird called the cuckoo, the twilight of the spring cry bitterly, its voice is sad and sad, touching the heart, causing the mouth to bleed, the ground falls on the petals, the petals are dyed red, called the blood cuckoo, is an ominous flower.

The cuckoo cries blood, which looks so weird and terrible on such a good day as the birth of the prince.

Concubine Xian exclaimed, "Why is this ominous flower here? ”

In the end, although the Queen Mother was shocked, it was only after a while that she found her voice and roared: "Whatever is it called, shut up the mourning family." Gonggong Wan, block the Jade Immortal Palace, and no one is allowed to step out. ”

A thick, calloused finger gently twisted a cuckoo on the table, put it under the wing of the nose and sniffed it gently, and the faint fragrance came out. But he threw it on the table in disgust, and asked in a cold voice, "Has the prince found it?" ”

Ma Gonggong looked around the hall inside and out, but still didn't see the shadow of the child, so he stepped forward and reported: "Your Majesty, the prince didn't find it." ”

The look on the emperor's face became more and more ugly, "Keep looking." ”

Concubine Xian muttered softly without thinking: "The child can't be found, it won't be ......"

After two "bang" and "hmm" sounds, the blood-red blood cuckoo on the table instantly split apart, and the red petals were scattered all over the ground. The majestic voice of the emperor came, "Didn't you hear the child's cry just now? If someone comes, the entire palace will be sealed off immediately, and no one will be allowed to enter or leave, even if this palace is turned upside down, the child must be found. ”

Ma Gonggong got the order and went out to do things.

The emperor walked over to Moyu's bed again and began to slap Moyu's cheek again, trying to wake her up. But Mo Yu not only did not wake up, on the contrary, his face became more and more pale, and his breath became weaker and weaker.

But no matter how he screamed, Moyu on the bed still didn't move. Not only her, but everyone in the room, no matter what others called, they couldn't wake up. The Queen Mother instructed the Father-in-law Wan beside her, "Go, call all the imperial doctors of the Imperial Physician's Department to the mourning family, quickly." ”

"Yes, Queen Mother." After Gonggong Wan answered, he hurriedly ran in the direction of the Imperial Medical Department. But I know in my heart that in this harem, I'm afraid there will be a river of blood again.

Renmyeongjeon.

After Fu Jinhuan heard the news that his palace maid brought back from the Jade Immortal Palace, he asked suspiciously, "What does it mean that the child is missing?" ”

The little palace maid is the palace maid who married into the palace with Fu Jinhuan, called Siyu. Siyu replied: "The slave doesn't know exactly what the situation is. I only heard that the Queen Mother asked people to go to the Imperial Doctor's Office to invite the imperial doctor, and the emperor asked people to block the palace gate, as if they were looking for the little prince. The slave maid inquired with a little eunuch in the Jade Immortal Palace that the little prince who had just been born to the noble concubine had disappeared inexplicably. ”

Drizzle fanned the queen and said, "Niangniang, how could the child disappear inexplicably? Could it be that someone stole it? ”

The queen frowned and said: "In this palace, there are either palace maids or eunuchs, who has the ability to steal a child in full view of everyone?" It's really weird. ”

"Could it be that there is something hidden in this?"

As for what the secret is, it is unknown. The queen gently stroked her stomach with her hand and said to the drizzle: "Tomorrow, you go out of the palace and tell Uncle Guo to let him check the whereabouts of the child outside." ”

"Yes. What about the mother, after you find it? ”

The queen looked down at her already bulging belly and sighed: "If you find it, let him get rid of this muddy world as soon as possible!" In the afterlife, cast on an ordinary family, there is no worry about it. ”

Drizzle nodded slightly and said "yes".

"Tell me to go down, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful in the palace these days, and the people in our palace had better not go out, so as not to cause trouble to our Renming Palace."

"Yes."

Kifu.

Old Madam Ji, like the queen, was shocked after hearing the same news: "What, what is the prince missing?" ”

Standing in front of him was a small servant, and today he was waiting outside the palace, waiting for the news from the palace. But he didn't expect the news that he was waiting for turned out to be that the emperor blocked the entire palace, and after inquiring, it seemed that the prince who had just given birth to the concubine had disappeared, and he felt that something was wrong, so he hurried back to report.

Today is a time of retirement, and Ji Gangyang does not have to deal with official business. He asked anxiously, "The palace is heavily guarded, how could the child be missing." What's more, the emperor and the queen mother were still standing outside at that time, and the concubine was a person who knew martial arts, who had such a great ability to take the child away? ”

The little guy replied: "I heard from the imperial doctor of the Imperial Doctor's Department, it seems that the incense was lit in the Jade Immortal Palace at that time, and everyone fainted. ”

Old Madam Ji nodded and said, "If you order the incense, the concubine has just finished giving birth, and her body is still weak, but it makes people take advantage of the weakness." But who has nothing to do to steal a child? ”

"Mother, do you think it will be the Queen Mother?"

"The Queen Mother just arranged for the concubine to die unexpectedly after giving birth, but she didn't want to steal the child! Besides, it's useless if the Queen Mother hides the child? ”

Ji Gangyang seemed to think of something, and said, "Mother, shouldn't she have been born next month?" How did it get ahead? ”

"We don't know why." The old lady instructed the little servant in front of her and said, "You continue to keep an eye on the movements of the palace, and report as soon as there is news." ”

"Yes."

Since the Yuan family was picked up, he has restrained a lot, and he doesn't dare to speak so sharply. At this time, she said: "Why is the daughter of the Ji family so miserable? Jade's child is gone, and now even the concubine's child is gone, which is really worrying! "Actually, she has it in her heart? Her daughter's child is gone, Ji Moyu's child is gone, and no one can get cheap.

The old lady said: "The concubine's child is just missing, you should be careful when you speak in the future." ”

Yuan said with interest: "Yes, mother, daughter-in-law knows." ”

The old lady turned to her son and said, "You also send someone to look for the newborn child in Tokyo, and if there is anything suspicious, take care of it, and wait for the emperor to confirm it before making a decision." ”

"Yes, Mother."

Yuan said unhappily: "Mother, her child, why are we going to look for it?" Naturally, the emperor is looking for it himself! ”

"Don't think I don't know what's going on in your mind." The old lady said with a look of hatred: "Now, our relationship with the Queen Mother has to be maintained by the children in Moyu's hands. Although the strength of the Guo clan is not as good as before, the emaciated camel is also bigger than the horse, and we can still use them when we are useful. If there is no Moyu's child, the Queen Mother will lose a bargaining chip on the way to power, which is also not good for us. Moyu's child may be the prince in the future, and Moyu may become the queen, and at that time, the glory and favor of our Ji family will last for a long time. ”

"But what if, I mean, what if, if the concubine's child never finds it?"

"Then the Queen Mother is afraid that she will cultivate another jade. This is also the last thing we want to see is please. ”

Ji Gangyang said: "Queen Mother, the Queen Mother shouldn't do this!" ”

The old lady clenched the cane in her hand and said, "She will." I know the style of this queen mother best. If the Ji family is useless to her, she will choose the next reliable family. ”

So, may God bless you find that child. (To be continued.) )
