537, I will die with you!
readx;?Zhu Chuyu? Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows, looked down through the gap in the half-open window, and sure enough, he saw two people standing in the corner downstairs, and Zhu Chuyu's hand had not had time to take it back. www.biquge.info The beautiful face that was always smiling in the past was also gloomy, and even the carefully depicted scars were a little more hideous and distorted.
The woman standing across from her had her face half-down, revealing only a graceful chin. The voice was gentle and kind, as if it had a bit of a taste of resignation, "Sister, what are you really talking about?" I don't understand. ”
Nangong Mo was a little more surprised, she also knew this woman. Even if you are not familiar with it, you still remember that this is Zhu Chuyu's sister-in-law, Xiao Qianye's original concubine, and now the side concubine Zhufei. Zhu Chuyu obviously didn't feel her sister's obedience, but such a voice seemed to stimulate her, and sneered: "Don't understand? How can you not understand if you are so smart? Do you want to ruin the Zhu family? Even if you want to destroy the Zhu family, do you want to destroy yourself too? Don't forget... You still have a son! ”
Concubine Zhu slowly raised her head, one hand caressing Fang Cai's cheek that had just been slapped in the face. The smile on his face was still faint, but his eyes were as cold as frost. Seeing this, Zhu Chuyu couldn't help but feel a slight chill in his heart, and couldn't help but take a step back. I only heard Concubine Zhu smile and say, "Yes, I still have a son." Zhu Chuyu calmed down, a little annoyed by being frightened by the sister he hadn't looked at all along, but his face was still calm, and he said in a deep voice: "It's good that you remember." ”
Concubine Zhu laughed lowly, "Hehe... Of course I remember, I was only afraid of... Sister, you can't remember me. Do you remember... What have you done to my child? ”
Zhu Chuyu's face changed slightly, and she looked at Concubine Zhu fixedly without speaking. Concubine Zhu sneered: "Forgot? My child is still alive, have you always wondered? But you know what? The doctor said... He didn't live more than two months. Do you remember... What did you get people to do to him last year? Zhu Chuyu's eyes flashed slightly, clenched his palms slightly, and said calmly: "I have never done anything to your son, you misunderstood." ”
Concubine Zhu raised her eyebrows, looked at Zhu Chuyu with a smile and said, "For so many years, it's the first time I've seen your sister talk to me in such a low voice." Of course you don't have to do anything to him personally, you just need to hint at the people of the Zhu family, isn't it? Mrs. Zhu, my good mother-in-law will naturally do everything you want to do but can't do for you. Hasn't it always been like this since I was a child? Laughing and laughing, a line of tears fell from the corners of Concubine Zhu's eyes, and Concubine Zhu looked at Zhu Chuyu with hatred, "Do you know that since the day my child was poisoned, I swear... You must let your Zhu family bury my child! The prince has lost the throne, and our family just wants to live the rest of our lives in peace. I just want my child to grow up safely, why don't you let me go? Because I was afraid that His Majesty would be jealous, my child was poisoned but could not go to a famous doctor, so I could only ask a doctor to see him as a sick doctor. The doctors... Where can those doctors be saved? These days, he is in pain every day, and every time I see him lying in bed in pain, I hate... Why don't you people from the Zhu family die! ”
"You are also from the Zhu family!" Zhu Chuyu's face turned pale and he shouted in a low voice.
Concubine Zhu raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Yes, I am also from the Zhu family." So... I will die with you. Sister, are you happy? ”
"What the hell did you do!" Zhu Chuyu was very remorseful at this time, how could he ...... in the first place
Before the Youzhou army broke through Jinling, the Zhu family killed by Concubine Zhu was almost empty. also made many of Zhu Chuyu's plans stillborn, and the Zhu family has not fully recovered until now. was ruined by the sister-in-law he looked down on, how could Zhu Chuyu not hate? But since His Majesty ascended the throne, Concubine Zhu has lived in the county king's mansion, and even if Zhu Chuyu is a princess, it is impossible for Zhu Chuyu to come to the door to find trouble with a county king's side concubine. In anger, Zhu Chuyu instructed the Zhu family to try to attack Concubine Zhu's son. Even the reason is ready-made, now that His Majesty has sat firmly in the country, one of the Zhu family is the grandson of the son of the previous emperor who was ousted from the throne. How could His Majesty not have a grudge against the Zhu family?
It happened that the Zhu family was snubbed by Emperor Taichu at that time, so they naturally thought that what Zhu Chuyu said was very reasonable. Although the Zhu family's money is gone, most of the connections over the years are still retained. If it is in the palace, it is naturally useless, but Xiao Qianye was driven out of the palace and just built a mansion, and all the forces were cut clean by Emperor Taichu, and it was easy for the Zhu family to put a few people in. It's just that the child has been alive and not dead, at the beginning, Zhu Chuyu still blamed the person who started it for being incompetent, but after Zhou Xiang's mention, Xiao Qianwei began to think about Xiao Qianye's remnants, so it was naturally difficult to move this child again.
At this time, Zhu Chuyu only hated why he was so soft-hearted and killed Concubine Zhu directly, so there was not so much to do.
Concubine Zhu covered her lips and smiled, and said in a low voice: "It's nothing, I just asked people to tell my father that our prince resents His Majesty and refuses to let go of even a child, and is willing to help His Royal Highness King Zheng win the crown prince, or even the throne." My father probably thought that I didn't know that the Zhu family was doing it to my child. He also said that as long as His Royal Highness King Zheng can ascend to the throne of the crown prince, he will forgive me for almost harming the entire Zhu family in the first place. It will also help our prince to intercede with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so that our family can live a better life in the future. You say, is my father becoming more and more innocent as he lives? ”
Zhu Chuyu gritted his teeth, "What do you want to do?" Why didn't my father consult with the prince? ”
Concubine Zhu smiled and said: "It's very simple, Your Majesty has been staring at His Royal Highness King Zheng so closely, where can it be done after discussing with His Royal Highness King Zheng?" When we do that, His Royal Highness King Zheng will also be very happy, and His Royal Highness King Zheng will definitely rely on it even more. What's more, it's just to help His Royal Highness King Zheng get a little connections and place a few people. A little thing, why bother to mobilize the people? ”
Zhu Chuyu only felt dizzy in front of him, leaned against the wall behind him a little weakly, and said in a deep voice: "You... What do you want to do? Two days ago... The assassins of the Hundred Clans Conference, you sent them? ”
Concubine Zhu smiled and nodded, as if she was very happy. Zhu Chuyu closed his eyes, remembering that when he returned to Zhu's house yesterday, his father and brother looked dazed. They clearly don't know anything, but everything is clearly through their hands. And she! I don't even know what these people are going to do!
For the first time, Zhu Chuyu really felt a trace of despair, and for the first time began to resent the stupidity of his father and brother.
"The eldest sister has always been so smart, did you guess?" Concubine Zhu said with a smile. Zhu Chuyu gritted his teeth and said, "You want to assassinate your father?" You're crazy, aren't you? This is a great sin for the Nine Clans! ”
Concubine Zhu sighed: "It's not that we want to assassinate Your Majesty, it's His Royal Highness King Zheng... I want to kill the king and kill my father. ”
"You madman!"
Concubine Zhu looked at her with a smile, "Since the eldest sister thinks we are doing something wrong, why don't you go and tell the truth?" Now go and tell Your Majesty, maybe, Your Majesty will spare your life for the sake of your merit. Zhu Chuyu's expression was stiff and his face was pale, staring at Concubine Zhu's eyes, eager to stare her out of a few holes. Active? Bypassing her life? What's the use of that? If what Concubine Zhu said was true, if something like this happened, Xiao Qianwei's life would be over, and she... Even if he survives, this life will be over.
Looking at Zhu Chuyu's appearance, Concubine Zhu smiled more and more happily, "Eldest sister, I know that in your heart, only Princess Chu is your opponent. Pity... Princess Chu doesn't want to pay attention to you at all. Today, my sister will teach you to be a good person and not take yourself too seriously. You've never looked at me in your eyes, so did you ever think that one day the little people you looked down on would ruin everything for you? ”
"You don't want to live anymore!" Zhu Chuyu trembled with anger.
Concubine Zhu nodded and smiled: "Yes, I'm not afraid of death, eldest sister, are you afraid?" It's a pity, I probably don't see your Zhu family crying and grabbing the ground, wailing and begging for mercy. ”
Zhu Chuyu stretched out his hand and wanted to slap it again, but as soon as his hand was raised, it stopped in mid-air. Seeing Concubine Zhu meet her faint smiling eyes, she only felt chills all over her body. After a long time, he finally turned around and left quickly. Watching her leave, the smile on Concubine Zhu's face gradually faded. just looked at the back of Zhu Chuyu, who stumbled away, with a blank face, and burst into tears.
Concubine Zhu stood downstairs in a daze for a while, then touched the tears on her face and turned into the small building behind her. Slowly walked up to the second floor, and saw Nangong Mo sitting at the window looking at her calmly. Seeing Nangong Mo, Concubine Zhu didn't seem to be surprised at all, she just walked over and knelt down in front of Nangong Mo.
"What is this doing, concubine?" Nangong Mo stood up and asked in a deep voice.
"The princess doesn't seem surprised?" Concubine Zhu looked at Nangong Mo's expression and said, "It seems... The princess already knew what was going on. Nangong Mo shook his head and said, "I guessed some of it, but I didn't expect that there would be something about you in this." Concubine Zhu smiled bitterly and said, "Once something happens, even if it really doesn't matter to the prince at all, who will believe it?" ”
Nangong Mo was noncommittal, and just asked, "In that case, what is Concubine Fang doing?" ”
Concubine Zhu said in a low voice: "Since the princess has known for a long time, presumably His Royal Highness the King of Chu and His Majesty have also known about it for a long time, right?" As a result... The concubine knows that she deserves to die, but this matter really has nothing to do with our prince. I also beg the princess to say a few good words for our prince in front of His Majesty for the sake of the first emperor. ”
Nangong Mo sighed, looking at her with a little more pity in his eyes, "You also said... As long as something happens, the first person to be suspected is Xiao Qianye. If you were serious about him, you shouldn't have been involved in these things in the first place. ”
Concubine Zhu wept, "The prince is really disheartened, but there are people who refuse to let him go." The prince refused them before, but those people still refused to give up, if I didn't agree, the prince was afraid that he would really be involved. The concubine was born with a miserable life, and although the prince was not a good emperor, he was the best person for the concubine. It's just that... The concubine is a selfish person, and after all, His Majesty is still not as good as my child in my heart. The Zhu family caused him to be in pain at a young age, and he couldn't even save his life, I want them to die without a place to bury! Concubine Zhu's voice was low, but her voice was as cold as the cold wind of winter.
"I don't know if I can help." Nangong Modao.
Emperor Taichu is not a magnanimous person, he kept Xiao Qianye for fame, but if Xiao Qianye looked for death by himself, he would send the handle to him, and he would be sorry for himself if he didn't kill him.
Concubine Zhu kowtowed respectfully and said, "The princess is full of words, I can trust it." Naturally, the concubine didn't dare to ask the princess for help in vain, and I would tell the princess everything I knew. ”
"Thank you." Nangong Mo said lightly.
When Nangong Mo came out of the small building, it was already evening. Walking through the palace meeting, the palace maids who passed by stopped to salute from time to time. The faint slanting sun shone on his body, but Nangong Mo couldn't help but shudder. Reaching out and wrapping his arms, he sighed softly as he looked at the remnant sun that seemed to be like blood in the sky.
"Princess!" Two palace maids who were very familiar with each other hurriedly greeted each other, and when they saw Nangong Mo, they were immediately overjoyed, and they were busy with blessings.
Nangong Mo recognized them as the palace maids who were needed by the queen's side, and said with a smile: "But there is something wrong with the queen mother?" ”
The palace maid nodded, and said a little anxiously: "Princess Qiyu, several princesses suddenly fell ill in the Niangniang Palace, and the imperial doctors were helpless. The mother asked the princess to come over and take a look. Nangong Mo frowned slightly, "How many princesses?" What about the Queen Mother? ”
The palace maid shook her head and said, "The queen is fine, the imperial doctor said that several princesses are... I ate something I shouldn't have eaten by mistake, so I ......"
"!" Nangong Mo said in a deep voice, "On a day like today, the food in the palace has been strictly inspected, how can there be something that shouldn't be eaten?" The two palace maids shook their heads again and again and said, "The slave maid doesn't know, the queen mother has ordered that all those who have come into contact with these things be taken down first." Nangong Mo sighed and said in a deep voice: "Let's go over and have a look first." ”
"Yes, Princess, please."
hurriedly entered the queen's palace, and sure enough, several princesses in the side hall were sitting in chairs with pale faces. The eldest princess of Jin was the most serious, lying directly on the soft couch, her face was pale and her breathing was weak. Nangong Mo's face sank, and he walked in quickly. The queen was in a hurry, and Sun Yan'er was also anxious when she was on the side. Seeing Nangong Mo coming in, he hurriedly said, "Flawless, you're here." Quick, come and see what's going on with them? ”
Princess Zhou, who was leaning on the side, sneered, gritted her teeth and said, "What's the matter?" Imperial sister-in-law, we are all poisoned in your palace, what else can it be? You and the third brother want our lives to say yes, why use such a subordinate method? ”
As soon as he said this, the faces of several other princesses also changed. When such a thing happened, the queen was well, and it was impossible to say that they had no suspicions at all.
Hearing this, the queen suddenly fell down in anger, "Sixth brother and sister, what are you talking about?!" "She is a dignified queen, she has nothing to do in her palace to poison the princesses and concubines in her palace?
Princess Zhou also knew that what she said was unreasonable, so she snorted lightly and turned her head away, muttering in a low voice: "Who knows what you think?" ”
"You ......"
"The queen mother is angry." Nangong Mo hurriedly walked over and helped the queen and persuaded softly.
