It was almost dusk. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Chi'er stood in the doorway, eagerly awaiting Uncle Bardazi's return. But the left waited and the right waited and didn't come, which couldn't help but make her heart sink and have a premonition that something bad had happened.

"Mother, I'll go out to inquire, and I'll be back before dinner." Before the woman could say a few words, Chi'er ran out of the house.

"Hey, this kid." The woman sighed softly, she was really a little monkey who couldn't control it. It's no wonder that a child of about fourteen years old is just the time to get to heaven, and no matter how much she has the heart to restrain her, I'm afraid she will be lacking in skills.

The woman looked at herself in the bronze mirror, who was getting old and old, smiled self-deprecatingly, and shook her head. When I first saw the child, he was just a babbling baby.

Time flies, and the white horse flies.

In thirteen years, this child has been polished to a white jade slender willow waist and a clear water hibiscus fairy face. Elegant and staggering, the body is soft and graceful like a dragon.

Look at yourself again,, although there are still some moving points. But compared to the pretty eyes that can be described as a glimpse back then, and the light body can dance in the palm of his hand, the gap is obviously too big. I can't imagine that the best years have been given to this child. However, this child is still competitive, a natural beauty embryo. Wait another year or two, I'm afraid it's going to be the Imperial City.

Thinking of this, the woman sighed heavily. It seems that this small side of the world will not be able to keep her, like a pearl forgotten under the fine sand, sooner or later someone will find it blooming again.

"Mother! Mother! Something is wrong! ”

Chi'er's shouts came from the door, accompanied by violent panting.

"Look at you like this, speak slowly, don't be in a hurry." As she spoke, the woman took a clean square towel from the back room and sweated Chi'er's back.

"Uncle Bardazi, he ・・・・・・ him・・・・・・" In the middle of his words, a pair of dark and shiny eyes burst into tears.

"What's wrong with him?" The woman was also a little anxious.

"He's killed!"

Chi'er yelled, then buried her head on the table and began to cry. "I heard from the guys in the shop on the street outside that Uncle Bardazi killed the prostitutes of the Smoke Moon Building in front of everyone! Uncle Tian An was also present at that time, and now he has been escorted to the Yamen. ”

"Impossible! He couldn't kill anyone in his life! The woman tightened her grip on the hem of her clothes, she had known Bardazi for nine years, and she believed that he would not kill. And how could he go and kill someone?

"But everyone said that Uncle Tian An saw it with his own eyes, so he was kidnapped and sent to see the official." Chi'er said and cried again, she had no father since she was a child, and it was all thanks to the gentle, open-minded and righteous Uncle Bardazi who brought her a trace of fatherly love. But now, this man who is like a relative not only did not come back safely to tell him stories and tell what he had seen and heard. But they were taken away without even saying a final goodbye, and maybe they would leave them forever.

It's really changing, and the world is unpredictable.

"Chi'er, don't cry. Let's go to the Yamen early in the morning to find the prefect. The woman wiped the tears from Chi'er's face and helped her back to her room to rest.

Say the other way.

The boss of the Black Shadow Organization, the sixth uncle, is the sixth master in the mouth of the shadows (i.e., killers). Under the order, the shadow who received the order did not dare to delay for a moment, and hurried to work day and night. Straight to the flower capital.

Speaking of this dark shadow organization, it can be regarded as a big deal. It was created by King Qi's mother, Concubine Li, for the purpose of protecting the mother and son of King Qi in the palace.

Concubine Li was originally a strong woman, she was born in a poor family, and naturally there was nothing around her to help her family power. So before she was favored, she lived a hard life for a long time. Those days were gray, painful, and even unwilling to recall. She is often bullied and teased by the concubines who have powerful family powers, even the queen of the lord of the six palaces does not like her, and she has to eat behind closed doors every time she asks for peace.

But she still lived so forbearantly until she became pregnant with King Qi. Life started to look up a little bit. However, the struggle in the harem was originally intensifying and endless. It's easier said than done if you want to stay out of it.

She wants to settle things like before, and I'm afraid it's impossible to settle down for a lifetime.

Mother is expensive by virtue of her son, because of the birth of King Qi, she was promoted two levels in a year, and sat on the top of the five concubines. (Because it is an overhead text, the author of the hierarchy of the harem here intends to follow the Song Dynasty) but also because of the birth of King Qi, the contradiction between her and the queen was pushed to the extreme.

The queen at that time was the mother of the late emperor, and she was originally a person who liked to eat fasting and recite Buddha. For the battle of the harem, you can close one eye and close one eye. But the sudden promotion of Concubine Li really made her a little flustered.

It is understandable that for a woman who has not yet given birth to a man and a woman for the emperor, it is indeed too difficult to face all this calmly.

"Give Qi'er to me to raise." She remembered that she said to Concubine Li so coldly at that time.

"Can the queen be gracious?" Concubine Li, a hard-working woman, has no relatives, and now she wants to take away her only child, she really can't stand it. Even if she has always emphasized to the queen that she has never had the heart to seize the throne, she has never let the emperor make her child the crown prince.

But how could the queen believe it?

The queen has passed the year of her establishment, if she could have given birth to a child, she would have given birth a long time ago, and she is still guilty of robbing the child with her.

So the queen was ruthless and went to ask the emperor for Qi'er to raise. The emperor was lukewarm to Concubine Li, but because this was his only incense, he treated Concubine Li very well. Now that the queen is dignified and virtuous, and her mother is the world, there is naturally nothing wrong with cultivating her next heir with her own hands. Besides, the ministers of the previous dynasty all spoke for the queen mother one-sidedly, so it was agreed.

Concubine Li looked at the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, who were all cronies and henchmen of the queen, and was naturally so angry that she couldn't speak. At this moment, she bit her lip and handed the child out. But he also secretly vowed to establish an assassination organization that would always be loyal to him, just to kill the dog queen one day and take back his Qi'er.

But the wheel of fate is always a bit unexpected.

Although the Shadow Organization is not yet very powerful, the assassination network has not yet been fully constructed. But the King of Qi was sent back.

The reason is: the queen is pregnant with a dragon son!

This middle-aged woman did not lose her fertility, and she came back to life to help her get back the most important game of her life.

Could it be the result of bowing down all day long to send the son Guanyin? Or did the king of Qi please people and help the queen bring another younger brother?

I'm afraid no one can say the reason for this, but the only reliable explanation is that the arrival of King Qi did make the queen feel very comfortable, and it also made the emperor frequent to visit the queen's bedroom. I'm afraid this is the real reason for the pregnancy, but no matter what, the queen really likes King Qi in her heart, which is why in the end, after Concubine Li's usurpation failed, King Qi was pardoned and kept his fief.

In the twenty-fifth year of the Dragon Era, the emperor who had reigned for twenty-five years died of illness.

The forty-five-year-old queen and the fourteen-year-old crown prince, the concubine Li, who was just in her early thirties, and the sixteen-year-old King Qi were left behind.

Concubine Li, who has endured humiliation for more than ten years, has changed, she has a son, she has status, she still has the Black Shadow Organization, what else does she need to be afraid of? Will she still be the snub concubine who was alone, cold or cold, hot or hot?

Isn't snatching the throne the best gift for his son's suffering childhood?

Yes, she thought so, and she did. At the beginning, he swore that he would not compete with the queen for power for the rest of his life, and it became bullshit. What she was afraid of was not the thunder and thunder of breaking her oath, but why she had shown weakness back then, but in the end, no one was willing to leave her a way to live.

It can be seen that this is the human heart, how can the people standing on the shore know how cold the lake is.

But the queen has been entrenched in the palace for twenty-five years, and her power cannot be underestimated at all. The forces of the former dynasty and the harem colluded and became entangled, and a small assassination organization alone could not be dismantled.

Failure is inevitable.

The king of Qi witnessed the death of his mother and the ascension of the new emperor.

He had to tidy up his clothes and kneel down to be a minister.

The queen granted him a pardon, and still retained his title of King of Qi, but moved out of the imperial city and never returned to Beijing.

Maybe he had a hint of hatred, but he didn't show his face, and he neatly packed his bags and left the city the next day.

Everyone thought that he should be satisfied with the queen's arrangement, because it was already a great blessing that he did not kill him and cut the grass and eradicate the roots. Unexpectedly, the sixth uncle, a backbone member of the Black Shadow, quietly caught up with his horse heading west.

This chase is bound to do something big. This chase is destined for decades of absolute loyalty. This chase also strengthened King Qi's heart to win the emperor for his mother.
