Chapter 139: The Death of the First Empress
On the way here, Jing Shengwu had already thought about it. If Rong Chu insisted on refusing to let go, then it could only be like this.
"Are you using your life to force me to agree to your request and leave Jing Zhengming's life?" I don't know when, Rong Chu was already standing in front of Jing Shengwu, looking at him coldly.
There was an indifferent cold aura on his body, which made Jing Shengwu frown. Although she has already learned medical knowledge from the doctor, she has made up for her own physical deficits. But Jing Shengwu is a boudoir girl after all, and she doesn't have any internal strength.
Now that Rong Chu is urging his internal force with all his might, the aura released is something that Jing Shengwu can resist. Under this, she felt that her breathing was a little difficult. Even so, she tried to look at Rong Chu with great effort.
"Well, you can go back to the palace by yourself." After looking at Jing Shengwu for a while, Rong Chu suddenly waved his hand tiredly, handed a small box to Jing Shengwu, and said.
Hearing this, Jing Shengwu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that Rong Chu agreed with her, and when the time came, she would be able to leave Jing Zhengming alive. Of course, it's just a life.
Quietly opened the box and looked at it, and it was those pills inside. Jing Shengwu quietly covered the box and put it in the embroidered gold thread elastic ink mandarin duck brocade purse that he carried with him.
Waiting for Jing Shengwu to leave, Wu Liang Gongzi Fang Cai looked at the disappearing soft voice, and then looked at Rong Chu, who was standing in place stunned, sighed, and continued to refine his own pill.
After handing over the pill intact to Chu Heng, who was looking forward to wearing it in the Fengtian Palace, Jing Shengwu breathed a sigh of relief. Chu Heng, who was overjoyed, wanted to reward her with something, but was politely rejected by Jing Shengwu.
"Father, the son doesn't want any reward. Now that the affairs in this palace have been almost dealt with, Erchen wants to go back to the Qi'an Marquis Mansion to take a look. After the day of the snow and the moon. The retainers have not yet come to her spirit to worship one or two. ”
Chu Heng was looking at the pill in his hand and smiled happily. When he heard Jing Shengwu's words, he waved his hand and directly agreed to Jing Shengwu's request.
"In this way, I will allow you to return to the Qi'an Marquis Mansion for two days. But watch the time, don't delay too much. I still need you to supervise this pill. ”
I heard the emperor say so. Jing Shengwu knelt down at the moment. He bowed to Chu Heng again. There was a cold smile on her leaning face.
Jing Zhengming, you forced Xue Yue to death that day. How about a taste of what it's like for me to force you?
Jing Shengwu is a neat person, and after receiving the emperor's holy decree, she packed her bags in less than an hour. took Leng Yu and Xue Yue back to Jingfu. Looking at the vermilion lacquer gate of Jingfu, the two stone lions are still the same as in the past. It hasn't changed at all.
"I didn't know that the princess was coming, I didn't welcome it from afar, and I hope that the princess will atone for her sins." Jing Zhengming took Jing Shengyu and some concubines in the mansion to kneel at the door of the mansion and said respectfully.
Jing Shengwu didn't bother to entangle with him too much. He only indifferently ordered them to get up, and then walked towards the east courtyard with Leng Yu's support. Jing Shengyu watched her noble shark bead yarn lightly spun snow moon gauze skirt dragging a trace on the ground, and followed with small steps.
Seeing Jing Shengwu, he didn't care where he was. Jing Shengyu sighed at the moment and respectfully prepared to retreat. Now the identities of these three sisters are different from the past. She also wanted to come and stammer. None of the serious heroines in this house are gone, she is just a concubine from the Sun family.
If no one comes to help her, I'm afraid that Jing Shengyu will just be casually married by Jing Zhengming in the future, and it will be difficult to become a wife. I don't see that Jing Shengyan, although I married Chu Yu at that time, didn't I lose the title of a side concubine?
"Sister, there is no one in charge of this mansion, my sister sees that you are smart and clever in your heart, why don't you let you be the head of this Jing Mansion?"
Just when Jing Shengyu wanted to retreat, Jing Shengwu's cool voice sounded in the main hall, as if the music played by the best Jiao Yeqin made people feel calm. Hearing this, Jing Shengyu was overjoyed, and he was respectfully blessed by Jing Shengwu at the moment, and then retreated.
Now, with a random order from Jing Shengwu, isn't he the most noble heroine in this Jingfu, except for Jing Zhengming and Mrs. Tai? Thinking of this, Jing Shengyu couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.
"Sheng Wu, you are really different."
In Jing Zhengming's study, Jing Shengwu and Jing Zhengming were sitting opposite each other. After Jing Shengwu made a report for a long time, he took Leng Yujing to this Jing Zhengming's study. Moreover, she did not give a private salute to Jing Zhengming when she returned to Jingfu before.
Seeing Jing Sheng Wujing sit down on the red sandalwood carved vermilion lacquer spring stool that he likes the most, take the tea on the table and pour it by himself, Jing Zhengming stroked his beard and said.
When Jing Shengwu heard this, the corners of his lips were raised, revealing a cold smile. Now that she has been in this palace for a long time, and she has become a princess who holds the power of the six palaces like the deputy queen, where is she still a little girl in the Jingfu that day?
At that moment, Jing Shengwu put down the teacup of the delicate celadon pisces playing lotus leaf in his hand, and said to Jing Zhengming with a smile, "Father, don't sell Guanzi anymore, Sheng Wu doesn't understand." In the past, my father was not as timid as he is now, and he beat around the bush about Sheng Wu. ”
"You!" Hearing Jing Shengwu mocking himself like this, where could Jing Zhengming bear it, he slapped the table and said coldly. Jing Shengwu was not afraid at all, and only raised his face to look at Jing Zhengming, as if waiting for him to get angry.
Jing Zhengming's raised palm couldn't fall in mid-air no matter what. He looked at Jing Shengwu's delicate face and was stunned for a long time before he sighed and put it down.
This me, now out of his control.
"That's it, Sheng Wu, if you have anything to say, just say it." Jing Zhengming seemed to be two years old all of a sudden, and only picked up the white jade teapot and poured himself a cup of tea. Feeling the bitterness of the tea rolling in his mouth, the corners of Jing Zhengming's mouth moved slightly.
"Father, don't be alarmed, I'm here to know a piece of news. Back then, Leng Xiang once sent a bottle of medicine to his father at the behest of the queen. ”
Jing Shengwu just said this. Jing Zhengming's muscles tightened slightly. Seeing this scene, Jing Shengwu keenly captured the panic in his eyes. At that moment, she no longer hesitated, and only continued.
Not long after the medicine reached his father's hands, he immediately went out of the harem, and the news that the first queen and the former prince were both dead. Now that I think about it, the first queen is the concubine of Rong Wangfu, and she is good at fist and foot kung fu. The bones of the body are not weak. How could it be so easy to not even escape from the dormitory? ”
As she spoke, Jing Shengwu gently put her fingers on her jet-black hair, and the white hosta was gently played under her fingers.
Speaking of which, in the end. Jing Shengwu's eyes were already cold. "I hope my father can tell me in detail about what happened back then. Otherwise...... she didn't say much, but the finger left the white hosta.
Looking at the hairpin on her head, Jing Zhengming's heart was shocked. He knew the origin of the hairpin. The treasure of the dignified Rongwang Mansion has always been only awarded to Princess Rongwangzheng of the Rongwang Mansion. Now. It turned out to be on Jing Shengwu's head.
Could it be that this Rong Wang Rong Shizi Rong Chu has already been interested in Jing Shengwu? Thinking of the rumor that he heard that at the Qianqiu banquet that day, Rong Chu single-handedly held Jing Shengwu to the princess. Jing Zhengming's heart became more and more flustered.
Rong Wangfu has always held heavy troops, and now Chu Heng, the emperor of Chu State, is old. When the time comes for the change of thrones, the world will definitely be unstable. At this time, Rong Chu's words. It can even determine the ownership of the throne of the emperor.
Only now that this scene is in the palace, even the queen mother does not dare to plunder its edge. What's more, add a Rong Chu? I'm afraid that the front and harem are all their world!
But at that time, there were too many things involved. Jing Zhengming didn't dare to open his mouth lightly to prevent himself from being burned.
"Father doesn't have to think too much about anything, Jing Shengwu only assured his father that if his father and Pan Confession, the piece of land that his father likes in the future will be passed down from generation to generation in our Jing Mansion." Seeing that Jing Zhengming's face was still so uncertain, Jing Shengwu gave him the last dose of reassurance.
"Why, can you really do that?" Hearing Jing Shengwu say this, Jing Zhengming's eyes were full of surprise.
"Don't worry, my surname is Jing. Besides, this fiefdom is not a difficult task for me now. Seeing Jing Zhengming's heart, Jing Shengwu only smiled softly and said.
Hearing this, Jing Zhengming was pleasantly surprised, and secretly stroked his beard. Yes, he forgot about it. Sheng Wu is now so favored in front of the emperor, and even the harem is given to her jurisdiction. I think it's not too difficult to ask for such a fiefdom.
"Well, since you insist on asking, you will sue your father for you. It's just that there are too many people involved in this matter, and what the Father knows is only a little bit the size of a mustard seed. Stroking his beard, Jing Zhengming finally made up his mind.
What can I do after talking about the old past, can Jing Shengwu still be able to avenge the Rong family? Besides, with the person above, he Jing Zhengming didn't need to worry about this matter at all. Even if Jing Shengwu sued Rong Chu, Rong Chu did it, and it had nothing to do with him Jing Zhengming.
With Jing Zhengming's narration, Jing Shengwu slowly figured it out. Back then, Jing Zhengming was just a minor official, and he was the third grade household in this court. Although the official position is small, Jing Zhengming can enter and exit the palace freely, which is more convenient than the current official position of Qi Anhou.
Later, by chance, he met Leng Xiang by the queen's side. After a while, Jing Zhengming was on the line with the queen, and the queen said first, if he left the king and became the emperor in the future, the Hou Mansion of Qi'an would be indispensable.
"That day, Leng Xiang brought a bottle of medicine to his father, saying that it was something ordered by the queen's mother." Speaking of the past, Jing Zhengming's eyes had a strange look.
Hearing this, Jing Shengwu quietly took a cup and drank the tea, but his heart was silent. She knew that now that she had said this, business was coming.
Sure enough, when Jing Zhengming said this, his expression also changed. I wanted to open my mouth to say something, but I didn't say it. Finally, he looked at Jing Shengwu and sighed and stood up.
After walking around the study, Jing Zhengming stood in front of his long-sky goshawk figure. This drawing Jing Shengwu had already explored it when he was still in the house. However, no matter how she looked at it, there was no clue.
Jing Zhengming lightly rolled up the drawing, revealing the empty wall behind it. Then, he touched the purple dragon jade belt of his own, and pulled out a silver needle about two inches long. In Jing Shengwu's surprised eyes, he slowly inserted the needle into the wall.
Seeing this scene, Jing Shengwu's pupils contracted. She could see that this was an organ of Jing Zhengming.
It seems that this key is on Jing Zhengming's body, so that he can get what is behind the wall. Otherwise, he wouldn't have carried it with him like this.
If it weren't for Jing Zhengming's permission, if he thought of getting this secret object, he would have to smash this wall open. But not to mention that the movement of smashing open the study is too big, when Jing Zhengming is not in this study, Ximo Changnian and others are staying here all day long.
"Sheng Wu, this is what I have hidden for my father for about eighteen years, and the queen asked Leng Xiang to bring it to my father that day, this is it."
The wall was inserted by the silver needle, making a "click" sound, and soon, it opened. Jing Zhengming reached out and took out the small jade bottle inside and put it in his hand.
Jing Shengwu immediately stood up, regardless of Jing Zhengming's face, and directly took the bottle in his hand and pondered it carefully. This is a jade bottle made of the best Tianshan Han jade heart, which can keep the contents from rotting for thousands of years. Jing Shengwu took the bottle and shook it lightly, and pulled out the cap.
As the cap was removed, the liquid inside was also revealed in front of Jing Shengwu. It looks like a pool of clear water, and there is nothing unusual. Jing Shengwu was very puzzled, and pulled out a silver hairpin on his head, just to stretch it into the liquid.
"Why are you dying? You can't touch this thing, so don't you put it away! Seeing Jing Shengwu's movements, Jing Zhengming was startled. He hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Jing Shengwu, and stuffed the bottle again, before he breathed a sigh of relief.
"What is this, that makes you so afraid, could it be some kind of strong poison?" Seeing Jing Zhengming's actions, Jing Shengwu also knew his recklessness, and immediately asked softly, not daring to touch the jade bottle again.
Jing Zhengming sighed, held the jade bottle in his hand tightly, and there were more memories rolling in his eyes, as if he saw himself back then. (To be continued.) )
