Chapter 142: Premature Death
Chapter 142: Death
Running was a group of palace people, panicked, saw them, stopped and said, "Say hello to Niangniang!" ”
Sui Erqi said: "Look at you guys are panicking, but what's the urgency, you have also seen it, it is someone from the Ma Gong Palace, but what happened?" ”
"Thank you Niangniang still remember the slaves and maids, back to Niangniang, it is Shujun Changgong who is sick, has been suffering from a high fever, and does not eat milk, but has been crying, and the imperial doctor is helpless, my mother asked us to go to the emperor and the queen, and I met the noble lady Niangniang without coming here."
Sui'er has never been out of the West Palace, and she is too lazy to listen to the affairs in the palace, so she only knows about the little princess, and she is also anxious, "Then go quickly, I'll go and see what I can do to help." ”
"Then thank you, mother!" Several palace people saluted again and disappeared around the corner.
Sui'er was just about to leave, but Sun Jue stopped her, "Niangniang, go at this moment, if something happens, I'm afraid it's not good for Yu Niangniang!" ”
"What's the disadvantage?" Sui'er stopped and looked at Sun Jue's eyes, revealing a strange look.
"Niangniang, think about it, Ma Gong is a very thoughtful, and jealous person, Niangniang has always been favored by His Majesty, she is not comfortable in her heart, and now she has given birth to a princess, I heard that the emperor is going to crown her a nobleman. If the little princess has three long and two short, isn't it self-inflicted trouble for the mother to enter her palace? If she bites back, saying that the mother killed the little princess, it is a hundred mouths! So please think twice, it's better not to go. When the little princess is better, it's not too late to see it. Sun Jue lowered his head and said word by word, but every word was reasonable. Every sentence made Sui'er frightened. But if I went to see the sick child, I felt that I couldn't go away.
Su Lan'er said: "Niangniang, the slave has a way. Niangniang can also go to the palace of the Su palace people, and then go. After a while, the emperor and the queen were allowed to visit, and the mother had not seen the emperor for a long time, so she also took this opportunity to meet the emperor. Everyone was there. No one can say whose is not! ”
Sui'er shook her head: "I don't want to see the emperor, even if he doesn't want to pay attention to Sui'er, it's just embarrassing to see him." That kid might as well let Yu'er take a look. I, I'm not going. Several people glanced at each other and understood that she said that it didn't matter whether the emperor came or not. I don't want to think about it, but I actually have a grudge in my heart. It's just as it is today. I have to let her go, if you don't go, you won't go!
Sui'er thought for a while and said to Zhao Yu: "Sister Yu, you don't have to enter the palace gate when you go." Just let me ask you if there's anything you need help with. If you say anything, just come back and let me know! ”
Zhao Yu agreed, and walked towards the Qingyan Palace of the Ma Palace people.
Zhao Yu came to the door. I felt strange to see that there was no one. But she remembered that the palace people had gone out to invite the emperor and the queen, and there were few people in the palace, and no one took care of them, which was also a matter of course. So he leaned sideways and poked his head in. But I saw that there was still no one in the empty courtyard. She felt even more strange, didn't there be anyone waiting for water and rice and serving the decoction? Where are the doctors? She was hesitating to go in when she heard a soft cry from inside the main hall. Zhao Yu was startled, and regardless of whether there was anyone or not, he rushed out of the window in three steps and two steps, but heard a cry from inside, and heard the voice of the Ma Gong people: "Why is there no breath when you are so good, is this my life?" ”
Zhao Yu didn't know whether to enter or not, so he had to walk to the door and said stubbornly: "Palace Niangniang, I am Zhao Yu in Deng Guiren's Palace, the noble man asked me to ask Niangniang, if there is anything you need to help, please Niangniang just speak." ”
"Smack!" I don't know what it was that fell to the ground, but I heard the people of the palace shouting hysterically: "Get out, what kind of fake kindness do I use from you, if my child is gone, what is the point of my life, get out, get away." ”
Zhao Yu knew that she was in a bad mood, and she knew that she couldn't please her when she came, so she was relieved. I was secretly glad in my heart, thanks to Sui'er not coming, otherwise I wouldn't have suffered her humiliation in vain. Then he said: "Slave and maid, get out, Niangniang is angry, Niangniang, please take care of your body, my nobles are still this sentence, where it is useful, please talk to Niangniang!" ”
"Get out!" There was a long scream, followed by a howling cry. Zhao Yu shook his head, reluctantly withdrew from Qingyan Palace, and saw Liu Zhao's honor guard coming from a distance, so he hid behind a rockery to watch.
Liu Zhao got off the sedan chair and almost trotted into the Qingyan Palace, only to hear a miserable cry from the palace, and sympathized with the people of the Ma Palace, the child had not yet reached the hundred days, and the emperor had won the princess's celebration not long after, and something happened, was it the will of heaven Another gust of cold wind blew, she couldn't help but shiver, turned around and left the Qingyan Palace and walked towards Su Zhao'er's Huayang Palace.
A figure in the distance flashed, glanced at her, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, turned around and disappeared into the layers of palaces.
Hearing the news of the little princess's untimely death, Sui'er was silent for a long time, and she said to Su Zhao'er: "Sister, such a child, still so young, died young, it's really pitiful." The people of the Magong don't know how to be sad! ”
Su Zhao'er took a sip of tea, the expression on her face couldn't tell whether she was happy or worried, she said lightly: "I don't care about the people here, the things here." I don't care if the child lives or dies. I'm glad I'm alive, where would I have thought so much. ”
Her words made Sui'er tremble, she didn't expect Su Zhao'er to say such heartless words, but her words hurt her heart like a thorn. Su Zhao'er has a point! In an instant, her face became unusually pale, these were true, she had no tears, but her vision had become blurred, and the pain in her heart was magnified in an instant, magnified to the extent that there was no way to control it.
Hasn't she thought about it? Isn't she sad? Doesn't she have an emperor in her heart at all? That day, she absolutely went to see Zhao Yu and left him, she really didn't expect that he would be so angry that he left her, and ignored her for more than a month. And he actually pampered all the concubines in the palace, but there was no her. Is it revenge on her? Are you mad at her? Or did he not care about her feelings at all. So she chose to bury her heart, buried it deeply, and did not dare to turn it up easily, she was afraid that after turning it up, the pain would swallow her whole body and mind, and she would fall into the hell of pain.
But Su Zhao'er's words turned this pain out, and she vowed not to let herself become haggard, but at this moment, she suddenly felt that everything was lost.
Su Zhao'er smiled bitterly, took her hand and said, "The emperor has come to me!" But he didn't touch me! There was a clogging feeling in her voice, but there were no tears in her eyes except hatred.
Sui'er moved, looked into Su Zhao'er's eyes and asked, "Why?" Why didn't he touch you? ”
"He just came to me to play chess, and to bathe and change clothes, and to sleep in the same bed with me, but he didn't touch a finger of me."
"I ask you why?" Sui'er held her hand tightly, and there was a sharp pain in her voice.
"I don't know!" Su Zhao'er broke away from her hand, giggling, her body shaking, her face twisted in pain.
"I don't know, when I came to this palace, it was like entering a hell, and the emperor's favor was like a gift. In ordinary homes, how loving husband and wife are, but we have to come here to suffer this sin that never has the sun. The queen, the emperor, the queen mother, anyone can point fingers at us, and they can put us to death anytime and anywhere. And we have no reason to fight! What are we, that is, the emperor's dog in the palace, he can do whatever he wants, so it is a kind of luck to be able to live, what else can we ask for? When you go to be demanding, demanding love, and demanding sincerity, you will only end up bruised and heartbroken! The more she spoke, the louder she became, until at last she was as miserable as a cry.
Sui'er was shocked by her words, her expression was sad, her eyes were full of tears, she held Su Zhao'er's hand and said, "Good sister, at least we still have sisters." At least you still have Sui'er! ”
Su Zhao'er turned her head, she didn't have a tear, she just smiled stupidly, "Okay Sui'er, you are luckier than me, Your Majesty, don't touch me, I know it's for you!" ”
"For me?" Sui'er blinked a pair of bright eyes and asked puzzledly.
"When the emperor and I were playing chess, he once said that sometimes people have to make some sacrifices when they have to, for the sake of their beloved, they can endure for a while and will have a lifetime. He's saying you're not, isn't he? I know how to play chess, give up a corner, you may win a full game, although the emperor does not look at you, but his heart is always with you! Do you know why the queen has never been able to find your evidence? That's because as long as the people who are sent will not come out alive, who will do this? Only the emperor, only the emperor can make all the evidence disappear invisible. So Sui'er, you are luckier than me, after all, the emperor really likes you. She sighed, staring at the faint sunlight outside the window, her face had regained its calm, but those words made Sui'er's heart tumble again, is all this true?
Suddenly, there was chaos in the courtyard, and Sun Jue came in with an anxious face to say, "Two mothers, something happened, the queen sent someone to arrest Miss Zhao Yu, saying that she was the murderer of the little princess!" ”
"What?" Sui'er stood up, "How can there be such a thing, I just asked Sister Yu to ask, how could I kill the little princess!" ”
Zhao Yu was also stunned: "But I didn't enter the inner hall, just outside!" ”
Sun Jue frowned and said, "Now, we have no other way but to listen to the queen, first imprison the jade girl in Yongxiang, and then we will find a way." It is said that someone saw the jade girl poisoned with his own eyes, and the evidence is conclusive, and now the queen is thundering, and the jade girl must be cured. ”
"What about the emperor, didn't the emperor also go to see the people from the Ma Palace? Isn't there a way to say this? Su Zhao'er glanced at Sui'er, whose face was like earth, and asked.
"This minister doesn't know, and he wants to let the minister inquire slowly. Many things in the palace are unclear, I'm afraid that the jade girl will be more auspicious this time! (To be continued)
