Chapter 108: Forced Kiss and Slap!

I want a ticket, I want a ticket, I want a ticket, I want a ticket......

------Off topic------

"With you, you are also worthy?"

His mind quickened, and he woke up. And the woman in front of him, with her chin raised high, like a proud little peacock, looked at him with disdain.

There was a "snap", and a crisp slap sounded.

"Bastard!"

He looked down, wanting to kiss her.

"Xia Chu, let's do it all over againβ€”"

His eyes were burning like fire, Zhao Mianze stared at her, his hands were clenched tighter and tighter, his mind was blank, and he suddenly held her shoulders and pushed the wooden pillars of the pavilion, and his body pressed up.

But it's also her, in front of him, who wants to marry someone else?

Yes, he knew it, knew that this woman was hateful and hateful. She obviously hates him, but she can use him without hesitation. But he is cheap, he likes to see the wit on her face that is completely different from the woman next to her, and even likes to see the hatred in her eyes, and likes to see that when she wants to be a whole person, the corners of her lips are upturned, and the little pear vortex that is pulled out is eager to melt into her smile......

Is it that she deliberately whispers softly with Qiu'er every time she comes to Qiu'er?

Was it the sweetness that swept through her nose when she tiptoed to gently rub his shoulders for him when she talked about the bird's character in the aviary?

It is the East Palace and his father Wang Zhi**a**Ben**Read. When the novel YBDU was sick, she was clever and unparalleled in medical skills?

The teenage Zhao Mianze hated Xia Chu very much, and the twenty-one-year-old Zhao Mianze hated Chu Qi even more, this woman named Chu Qi. He didn't know when he started to pay annoying attention to her nasty looks.

But his hand didn't let go, and his foot was one step closer.

He thought, he didn't have to be her, this woman had always been something he hated, and he didn't want it. Let her scold, as long as she scolds a little harder, he can turn around and leave. If she wants to marry Uncle Nineteen, she will be married, and the world will be him in the future, what does he want such a cheap woman to do?

Zhao Mianze's eyes were on fire, he really hated her.

"Zhao Mianze, you are a bad seed, you have a kind of robbery?"

With a light sound, Xia Chuqi smiled, slowly gave a thumbs up, and bent downward.

"Xia Chu!"

Zhao Mianze looked at her with hatred in his eyes.

Sure enough, she rolled her eyes and smiled disdainfully, "Okay, then don't let me go." Go and tell the whole world that the emperor gave you a wife, and your nineteenth uncle slept with him, and you go and tell the emperor that you want to marry me and marry the woman that your nineteenth uncle slept with. And ah, I promise you'll marry back only a corpse. But I'm going to die, Zhao Nineteen doesn't know what will happen to him, can you sit firmly? Even if the emperor likes you, what about it? Go, go, go, go, ......"

This is looking for cheapness, looking for scolding, he knows.

He said, "No matter what, I won't let you go." ”

Zhao Mianze hated her to death.

What kind of woman is this?

Disgusted with her, even more disgusted with herself. Disgusted that she was worthless by her, she was reluctant to walk away, and wanted to take her over and hold her in her arms.

Looking at her flamboyant expression, there was another wave of disgust in my heart.

Zhao Mianze's face was pale and uneven.

His eyes rolled a few times, Xia Chuqi glanced at him and smiled very evilly, "That's it?" That proves that Your Highness has too much to hate. I don't want to hate you, but I can't control my eyes. Isn't there a sin in this? ”

"You hate. Your eyes tell me you hate me. ”

"Do I hate you?"

With a "huh", Xia Chuqi raised his chin.

"Xia Chu......" Zhao Mianze stalked in his throat, "I never wanted to target you, I said it before." I'm wrong, but what about you? How do you do it? Why do you hate me? ”

In fact, what he hated most about her was that she hated him.

Closing his eyes fiercely, he was disgusted a lot, but finally found out.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and the hatred in his heart soared, and he felt disgusted with her, disgusted with her. Disgusted with her self-righteousness, disgusted with her difference, disgusted with her every move, disgusted with the pear vortex on her lips when she laughed, disgusted with everything about her......

He couldn't figure out this woman, didn't she like him very much? Isn't she doing anything for him? Why is it that now he has given her a chance, but she is unwilling?

"Xia Chu, you hate me so much?"

Zhao Mianze's face was obscure, and he grabbed her hand.

"Hey, that's funny." Xia Chuqi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and smiled a little evilly, a little evil, "Your Highness, have you taken a fancy to me?" Or is there a lack of women? It's a pity that even if you look down on me, I may not look down on you. With me, you don't have to think about getting anything. I don't like to go around the bend, let's make it clear, I hate you, I hate you, I am disgusted when I see you, let me marry you, and you will not have a chance to be reincarnated in the next life. Got it? ”

Zhao Mianze's face was very ugly, "You won't get your wish." ”

"I'm sorry." Xia Chuqi raised his head, his eyes were full of smiles, "I am the county lord of Jingyi, the future princess of Jin, your imperial aunt, this is an unchangeable fact, Your Highness, are you doing well?" ”

Zhao Mianze looked at her for a long time before he said faintly, "If I sincerely want to marry you, don't you want to?" ”

"What about forcing you?" Xia Chuqi raised his chin and said easily, but he was nervous in his heart, "If you have the ability, you can do it, just kill me." ”

"You! Don't push me. ”

"Unless I die, you carry my body in, hehe......"

She slowly smiled at Zhao Mianze.

"Okay, that's easy."

She went and said it in person, what she ruined was not her marriage with Zhao Mianze, but her marriage with Zhao Zhu. Looking at the man in front of him who was as gentle as jade and polite, Xia Chuqi was annoyed, but he smiled.

Bullshit!

"Unless, you tell the emperor in person...... You're going to ruin your marriage. ”

Zhao Mianze's eyes were cold, he gritted his teeth, and there was a feeling of annoyance in his heart. He hated, hated, and he didn't know what he was hating, just another clenched fist, and his knuckles were already white.

"What? To use force? Xia Chuqi sneered.

Zhao Mianze stubbornly grabbed her again.

"Stop!"

Xia Chuqi laughed, "Okay, I'm leaving, so as not to be seen gossiping." ”

Zhao Mianze looked at her and didn't know how to answer.

Why bother?

"Come on, fortunately I'm not Xia Chu, otherwise I would have been angry to death after hearing this. See what I do? Just kidding you. Your Royal Highness, in fact, if you think about it, why are you so persistent, you have such a good relationship with Mrs. Fang, and the two of you are kind and loving, isn't it white? The child will have it, take the medicine I dispensed, it's just a matter of time or night. Why do you bother with all the trouble? ”

With a "poof", Xia Chuqi smiled.

"You're a wife, Qiu'er...... can only be a concubine, and I have no choice but to live with her. ”

Zhao Mianze was a little embarrassed and bit his lower lip.

"Your Highness is so infatuated, but I don't know, if I am really Xia Chu, you let me be your wife, what should you do with your Qiu'er?"

After closing her eyes for a while, she calmed down, and then raised her hand to pinch Zhao Mianze's hand, and in his surprised look, one finger and another finger, slowly broke him open, pursed his mouth and laughed lightly.

But she knew that this emotion did not come from herself, and the restlessness that surged out of her heart was all because of that Xia Chu.

Wife? Xia Chuqi's heart was sour.

"You're my wife."

"Why?" Summer Chuqi holds his chin high.

"I won't allow you to marry Uncle Nineteen."

Xia Chuqi squinted, looked at him puzzled, and made eye contact with him. Looking at his eyes, slowly, slowly, little by little, a layer of melancholy floated up.

Zhao Mianze didn't answer, just called her, "Achu......"

Xia Chuqi looked down at his hand, "heh", raised his chin, and sneered, "What do you want to do?" Grab someone? ”

Zhao Mianze was stunned for a moment and grabbed her wrist fiercely.

With that, she got up, turned around and left.

Xia Chuqi scolded in his heart, but his face was rare and dignified, "Okay, Your Highness, I'm leaving, are you going to tell the emperor, are you going to do it, it's all your own business, I will soon be the princess of Jin, I hope you don't do anything that affects the feelings of your uncle and nephew." ”

Chu Mao, Chu? I can't understand human speech.

"Xia Chu ......"

"Your Highness, although I am not Xia Chu, I know a thing or two about you and Xia Chu. Therefore, there is a word of advice, I hope Your Highness can listen to it, there are some things it misses, it is missed. In this world, the most irretrievable thing is the past. Who the is so sick that they've been there all their lives, waiting for you to come back? What about dreaming? ”

is born to be a hard-hearted master, and he looks down on the negative man the most in this life.

But who is she at the beginning of summer?

To be honest, if you change the infatuated and simple Xia Chu before, and see such an affectionate Zhao Mianze, I am afraid that I will be so moved that I will throw myself into his arms and cry to tell my heartfelt feelings, right?

Ouch hey! Xia Chuqi raised his hand and knocked on his head, thinking that this guy had hair in his brain? What was he thinking? At the beginning, he said that he would abandon it, but now he said that he wanted her to go back, how easy it was to say?

Go back with him?

"Xia Chu." Zhao Mianze shouted at her again, and the warm smell on his handsome and fairy-like face, mixed with the faint mist in the garden, made his whole person look unreal, "I was at fault with the previous things, and you were also at fault." Now that you're back, let's take a step back from each other, okay? What do you do...... I can act as if I don't know, you go back with me. ”

Why did he do it?

Xia Chuqi was shocked again.

Zhao Mianze didn't answer immediately, just carefully stuffed the sachet into his arms, and suddenly sighed, "I haven't reported this matter to the imperial grandfather yet, you can rest assured." ”

Xia Chuqi smiled sarcastically, pursed his lips and looked at him evilly.

"So what? What do you want? ”

Zhao Mianze looked at her and smiled, "It doesn't matter if you don't know, it's good if I know." This sachet was embroidered by you, and it was meant to be given to me, but I ...... Later, I gave it back to you, and you have always carried it with you. ”

"Excuse me, what's that? I don't know. ”

Grinding her teeth secretly, she smiled slightly.

He didn't agree to keep it a secret for her, and he didn't agree to her. Why did he do such a thing that night when he said yes?

But now that I think about it, that's really hateful.

Although she usually doesn't want to see Dongfang Qingxuan, she has always liked handsome men, thinking that he is so good-looking, his kung fu is so high, and he is also righteous, although he is hostile, he has not really done anything to harm her, not only that, but he also saved her life, and he will not hate him to the bone.

Thinking of this, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

Despicable! Oriental demons!

Xia Chuqi was stunned for a moment when he saw that thing. She remembered that when she was in Qinggang County, Dongfang Qingxuan interrogated her for the first time, and it was this sachet that she took out. At that time, he wanted her to confess his identity, but then he took the sachet away, and she never saw it again. Now that the sachet is in Zhao Mianze's hands, there is only one reason that can be explained - Dongfang Qingxuan gave it to him, and told Zhao Mianze her true identity, wanting to force her to comply.

"This is yours, right?"

"You know." Zhao Mianze looked at her face, looked at her eyes that were half sarcastic and half mocking, and his heart tightened inexplicably. After a moment's hesitation, he slowly pulled out a sachet from his arms.

"Your Highness, I really don't know what you're talking about."

Pulling her lips, she smiled wickedly.

If she hadn't known about his previous relationship with Xia Chu, she would have thought that he had missed her for a long time. The sadness and sadness in that tone were so real that she couldn't read the truth of this person's heart at all. But no matter what he thinks, can she admit this kind of thing? admitted, where is there still a possibility between her and Zhao Zhu?

His voice was inexplicable to Xia Chuqi.

"Xia Chu." Zhao Mianze frowned, and the two words were clear, "I'm so hard to find you." ”

"Where do you start?"

"Are you blaming me?"

Zhao Mianze didn't answer, his Adam's apple stalked, still staring at her.

"You look at me, do you look like I'm nervous?"

Hearing his words, Xia Chuqi snorted absently.

"You don't have to be nervous." Zhao Mianze looked around, and his voice was much slower, "This neighborhood is full of my people." ”

"Your Highness, what are you kidding?"

Zhao Mianze slowly sat opposite her and shouted in a low voice. But his position was backed by the light, and Xia Chuqi couldn't see his expression clearly, but the voice was too soft, so soft that it was like seeing a lover she hadn't seen for a long time, which made her stunned for a moment, before she came back to her senses and raised her eyebrows in alarm.

"Achu ......"

"What do you want to say? Go ahead! ”

Not far from Kunning Palace, there is a small secluded garden. Because Empress Zhang doesn't like to bother, few people come here. The two men stepped one after the other into the stone arch of the small garden. Zhao Mianze sent his guards to guard outside, Xia Chuqi glanced at Qinglan, didn't give anything, turned around, strode in, and sat on the stone bench in the pavilion in the garden.

Zhao Mianze pursed his lips, "Yes." ”

A few steps away, Xia Chuqi smiled lightly at him.

"Oh, that's interesting. It seems that if I don't talk to you, will I not be able to do it? ”

A sentence of "old man", Xia Chuqi understood what he meant. The word "old man" contains too much, not only her identity as Chu Qi, but also as Xia Chu's identity. This means that Zhao Mianze knows everything. In other words, there is actually a threat in his words.

"When you meet each other, you don't have to be taboo about that, right?"

Zhao Mianze frowned, glanced at the gilded plaque of Kunning Palace, and then looked at Qinglan beside her, and then turned his gaze to her face.

"Men and women are not kissed, and there is nothing to say between me and His Highness."

Xia Chuqi glanced at him, clasped his arms in his hands, and smiled disdainfully.

But what does this matter to her?

Could it be that because the queen gave a woman, he didn't want to be sorry for Xia Wenqiu?

Zhao Mianze's voice was very slow and warm, but for some reason, there seemed to be an extra layer of melancholy between his words today.

"It's not convenient here, let's take a step to talk."

Who wouldn't be sarcastic? It's up to whomever is more poisonous than whom.

"Emperor, Chief, Grandson, Your Highness."

Looking at his warm and smiling face, Xia Chuqi curled his lips coldly.

"Lord Jingyi."

I never thought that on the road outside Kunning Palace, Zhao Mianze was waiting for her.

Xia Chuqi was not polite, took the reward, and gave Mama Sun some medical advice, and only then came out of Kunning Palace under the relieved eyes of Queen Zhang, preparing to go to Yunyue Pavilion to see Zhao Ziyue, who had not been seen for many days.

"Xie Niangniang!"

"Hongu ...... Much more comfortable. Grandma Sun, reward! ”

After touching about half a cup of tea, Empress Zhang coughed and nodded.

Taking a breath, Xia Chuqi held his breath, took the needle, lifted, inserted, twisted, turned, pierced Baihui, Neiguan, chest area, wind gate, lung Yu, Dingchuan and Fenglongtu, the movements were smooth, calm and calm, without the gentleness of an ordinary woman, and the posture was not superior, not glamorous, but people couldn't take their eyes off.

Empress Zhang clutched her chest, her face pale with pain.

"Okay, okay...... Good boy ......"

"Niangniang, as the saying goes, 'if it hurts, it doesn't work, and if it doesn't hurt', acupuncture and moxibustion will be cleared, knotted, stasis, and qi, and Chu Qi will come to tie it for you every day in the future, which should be able to relieve some pain for you."

No matter how ruthless Xia Chuqi said, she was a healer, and she never forgot her duty. Whether it is "poison" or "cancer", she treats it seriously according to the methods she thinks should be used.

When it hurts, it can kill people.

Empress Zhang's lung cancer is at an advanced stage.

Xia Chuqi prescribed a prescription for Queen Zhang, and instructed Mama Sun to go to the imperial pharmacy to get the medicine back, and carefully read the medicine before she sent someone to boil it. After sitting for a while, she saw that Queen Zhang was in pain on the couch, so she took out the silver needle again and began to prick the needle for her to relieve the pain.

The prison of the Criminal Department is deeply cold, but the Kunning Palace is full of spring.

……

……

But looking at Zhao Zhu's cold gaze, Chen Daniu's eyes seemed to be on fire, "Also, after she enters, she must wear linen and filial piety for my daughter-in-law, kneel three times and knock nine times, and respect her as the main mother." Otherwise, my whole family would rather die than give in. ”

Prince Yide's concubine, how to be a concubine?

"Big Bull!"

Zhao Tuo squinted slightly, but heard him say, "Your Highness, you tell the Lord Long Live for me, and it is not impossible for me to agree to this family business." It's just that the county lord of Jinghua can only be my concubine, not my wife. ”

"Okay."

After being silent for a long time, Chen Daniu finally sat up.

Zhao Zhu's eyes were cold, and he sighed, "You don't know Your Majesty, what he wants to do, nine cows can't pull it back." Think about it. ”

Chen Daniu raised his head with a "whoosh", "You mean?" ”

"Big cow, people have to learn to take a detour. Hard top hard is not a big husband, that's a fool. Do you think Your Majesty really can't do anything about you? You're wrong! He has a way to rectify you, aren't your father and your mother still in Jingshi? ”

Closing his eyes, Zhao Jun slowly turned around, squatted down, and clenched his shoulders with his palms.

Chen Daniu, who was lying on his stomach, his shoulders trembled slightly, and there were tears underneath.

Zhao looked at the straw he had beaten, and there was blood on it.

"Even if I die, I will never do such a thing that ignores my conscience."

Then, slowly, he lay on the dry straw, and the dignified eight-foot-tall man curled up and whimpered.

As he spoke, probably sad, he slammed a fist on the ground.

Chen Daniu pulled a handful of straw, pinched it in his palm, shook it off again, and said in a low voice, "In my hometown, the land is too thin, and it is difficult to have a good harvest." My family has no livelihood on the side, so I can only rely on the sky to eat. Your Highness, you are from a wealthy background, and it is difficult to understand how the poor live...... O farmer, look forward to a good harvest so that you can fill your stomach. In my hometown, a bag of millet can be exchanged for a daughter-in-law. When I first joined the army, I didn't have any money to take back, and I heard my brother carry a letter to say, one year my family's harvest was not good, and there was no rice in the pot at home, it was my daughter-in-law who stole the rice in the jar from her mother's house, and sent it to my father and my mother in the middle of the night, saving my family's life, but she was tied to the beam by her father, and she was beaten so well that she almost lost half her life. My mother said it, and she thought that her daughter-in-law was good, so that I couldn't lose my conscience...... Your Highness, she is a good woman, do you say that if I marry the county lord now, will I still be a person? What am I? Am I still a man? I went to the battlefield later, how could I hold my head up in front of my brothers, what is the difference between that and eating soft rice? ”

Zhao was silent.

"Your Highness, I won't tell you that my daughter-in-law is a farmer, sincere, and has no crooked eyes, although she has not passed the door, but her father and mother treat me wholeheartedly......"

Chen Daniu pulled his mouth, swallowed his saliva, and looked at the wooden fence of the cell, with a slight choking in his tone.

Looking back, Zhao Zhu snorted at him coldly, but did not speak.

Chen Da Niu looked at his back, and suddenly his eyes turned red, "I'm not stupid!" How did my daughter-in-law who didn't pass through the door die? I know it all in my heart. ”

"Your Highness......"

Zhao Tuo got up, glanced at him, and was about to leave.

"Stubborn!"

"Then I won't go out, it's good to eat and live here, and I don't have to fight, I don't have to work, how good is it?"

"I don't have that idleness!" Zhao Jun snorted coldly, "Da Niu, what are you thinking, do you think this king doesn't know?" But you have to think about it, your parents are old and worry about you all day long, don't they look forward to you marrying a wife and having children? Now that you are fighting with Your Majesty, can you beat him? Your Majesty's temperament, this king knows best, if you don't let go, don't think about going out in this life. ”

"Your Highness, are you here to be a matchmaker for me today?"

Tilting his head, Chen Daniu licked his dry lips and hugged his arms.

"If you think so, that's great. Big cow, Jinghua girl, people are good. ”

Zhao Zhu's eyes sank, and his voice was also low.

But now......

Chen Daniu's voice was low, in this cold prison, it sounded like a kind of coldness to the bone. Think of him fighting all his life, stepping through the wind and sand in the north of the desert, rolling through the dust in the south of the desert, walking through the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, passing through the sword and sword shadow, a hero and righteousness, how much hard work and horses have he made for Dayan, in order to be crowned a marquis?

"Your Royal Highness, my father and my mother are both croppers who have suffered all their lives, and they want to marry a county lord and come back to provide for them, who is the eldest in the family? I don't want my mother to be angry with her when she is old, eat her head, don't even think about it! I'm away all the year round, and I want to find an honest daughter-in-law who can wait for my father and mother......"

"Huh?" Zhao Jun snorted coldly, "Tell the truth! ”

"I'm a rough person, I don't dare to climb high!"

"Since there are so many thoughts, why shouldn't Your Majesty give you a marriage?"

After a pause, he looked at Chen Daniu's swarthy face.

didn't go to pick up his things, Zhao Zun said lightly, "Your daughter-in-law who has not passed the door, the funeral was handled by Shaohong for you." Your parents are fine, but I miss you. ”

Chen Daniu exhaled and smiled bitterly, "I haven't saved any money over the years, and all my belongings are in the drawers of my room, not locked." Your Highness, please do all this for me. Also, my daughter-in-law is unblessed, and I can't do anything after her death......"

Zhao Jun looked at him and did not speak.

"But I didn't pick them up, Your Highness, you can help me give this to my mother, just say that my son is not filial and failed to honor her and my father, in the future, I will entrust it to my brother and sister-in-law......"

Wiping his eyes, he lowered his head and sniffed.

"These jewels were originally given to my mother and daughter-in-law that day, but ......"

Chen Da Niu drooped his head and looked at him for a long time without saying a word. Needless to say, he could also imagine how many things would be implicated in a mutiny, and how many innocent brothers would be transferred or punished. After thinking about it for a while, he fumbled for a long time before he took out a small cloth bag from his waist, frowned and handed it to Zhao Zhu.

"This king doesn't understand."

"Your Highness......" Chen Daniu's expression changed, "You understand me." ”

"You miss them, why don't you go out and see them yourself?"

With another happy sound, Chen Daniu didn't have the consciousness of being a prisoner at all, and leaned over, "Your Highness, the brothers are all right, right?" My father, my mother and my brother and sister-in-law, are they all right? ”

Zhao Tuo glanced at him and snorted coldly, "It's not out of luck!" ”

Chen Daniu opened his eyes, "Huh", patted the straw on his body, and smiled, "Eat enough!" ”

"Master Hou, how do you feel in prison?"

The door of the cell was a little low, but Zhao was too tall, and he had to bow slightly to get in. Stopped, he looked at the guy who was cross-legged on the straw, his graceful posture paused, he picked a comfortable position and sat down, and joked lightly.

Zhao stood outside the cell for a moment before the jailer opened the door.

You're going to threaten someone like that? It's just too hard.

He said, "Your Highness, I will not be a prisoner, I have come back!" ”

Zhao Zhu was on the horse, he dismounted, and knelt on one knee.

He stood at the door of the barracks with a bloody knife.

That was the first time Zhao had seen him.

Zhao Zhu remembered that when Chen Daniu was still a captain of the Jin Wei Army, he was taken captive once when he fought against Beidi. The Beidi people arrested him and wanted to extract information from his mouth, and the sharpened knife was on his neck, and he could still chew on steamed buns calmly without blinking his eyelids. When he had eaten the steamed buns to his heart's content, he snatched the knife alive, single-handedly fought his way out of the enemy's camp, snatched the horse and rushed out of the enemy camp, but he didn't even snort when he was covered in scaly wounds.

Of course, for a person like Chen Daniu, punishing him will not only not make him succumb, but will definitely drive the executioner crazy.

Under the pine oil lamp, Chen Daniu sat cross-legged on the hay, although his body was embarrassed, his back was straight, and he had not been punished at first glance.

Since beating him and asking him to be imprisoned, today is the first time Zhao Zhu has come back to visit him. The damp and dimly lit area of the prison seemed to smell of paint in the air after it had been burned again, and after it had been renovated.

Chen Daniu has a special identity and lives in a single room.

The prison of the Criminal Department.

……

……

It seems that this Empress Zhang, she must be treated well.

If you make a small move, you can kill her.

Sure enough, you have to be a bad guy.

The room was filled with the sound of Queen Zhang's sobbing, Xia Wenqiu lowered his head, his shoulders trembled slightly, and Zhao Mianze's back was stiff but he didn't dare to resist. At the beginning of the summer, the tip of the seventh pen wrote the recipe on the paper, and sat expressionlessly, thinking about the sour taste of Xia Wenqiu's heart wanting to kill, dark cool, dark cool.

"Good grandson, I know that you are the good grandson of this palace......" Empress Zhang trembled her hand and stroked his face.

"Grandma Huang, my grandson knows."

Seeing that she was coughing out of breath, Zhao Mianze lowered his head.

"Mianze." Empress Zhang looked at him, her eyes were red, she choked, and grabbed his arm, "There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest." Before the imperial grandmother closes her eyes, if she doesn't get your good letter, she won't be blind! Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem......"

"Grandma ...... Emperor"

The corners of Zhao Mianze's lips pursed into a line.

"That's it, this palace can see it, pointing at you, this palace is afraid that he won't be able to hold his great-grandson even if he is dying. Ming'er's palace will send someone to pick a few good concubines for you to send over, how to do it, you can do it yourself. ”

Snorted, she no longer looked at Xia Wenqiu, as if she hated Zhao Mianze for not being angry, trembling her fingers, pointing at Zhao Mianze's face, and coughing heavily a few times before sighing helplessly.

Empress Zhang looked at her, coughing again, and sighed heavily, as if she was a little out of breath, "If you are really sincere, you should know the general situation." It's not that you don't know, Prince Yide is in the same vein, and he is already thin, but now that Prince Yide is gone, Mianhuan is an unconscious person, but you ......"

"Sincerely?"

"Niangniang, the concubine has no ability to do it, only a sincere heart is left."

Xia Wenqiu pursed her mouth, she always felt that Empress Zhang's expression was wrong when she looked at her today, and she was a little frightened, seeing that she mentioned that she had no children twice in a row, she only felt cold all over her body.

"Mrs. Side has a heart! Buddha, you don't have to bless the palace, as long as you can add a great-grandson to the palace early, the palace will be content. ”

Empress Zhang smiled, her lips a little cold.

Xia Wenqiu glanced over, shook his hand with a handkerchief, and suddenly felt a little panicked, and knelt on the ground firmly, "The queen mother said with a smile, you are deeply blessed, and you will get better soon." These days, the concubine can't sleep all night, chanting sutras and worshipping the Bodhisattva every night, praying for the blessing of the queen, the Buddha will definitely protect the ...... of the mother."

But at a glance, he saw the "sarcasm" on the corner of her lips.

Zhao Mianze frowned, but his eyes were aimed at Xia Chuqi.

"Grandma ...... Emperor"

"Mianze, look at your age, Mrs. Fang has been in the East Palace for two years, right? I didn't crawl out of my stomach, your imperial grandmother, this is dead, I didn't hold my great-grandson, and I couldn't close my eyes......"

After that, she glanced at Xia Wenqiu before beckoning to Zhao Mianze, and when he sat on the edge of the bed, she held his hand tightly, and choked with a sigh of sorrow.

"You don't have to worry about it. This palace can't die at this moment. ”

Glancing at the two of them, Empress Zhang coughed twice.

From the moment he entered the hall, Zhao Mianze's eyes did not leave the woman who was sitting there writing prescriptions. He came here today, for what? She felt cold in her heart, hoping that it was just her own delusion.

Xia Wenqiu smiled and agreed, but his fingers tightened the hem of his skirt.

"Yes, Queen Mother, Your Highness, he thinks about you all day long."

"Grandma Huang, I heard that you are not in good health, and your grandson is worried about it every day, and she has long wanted to come. But the emperor's grandfather doesn't allow us to disturb your rest casually, and my grandson finally got the opportunity to come over today. ”

Zhao Mianze's gaze swept over Xia Chuqi and smiled lightly.

The wrinkles on Empress Zhang's face eased a little, and her expression was exactly the same as when Xia Chuqi first saw her, as if she didn't know anything about the candlestick at all, she just asked with a smile, "This little couple, who haven't seen each other for a few days, is still so affectionate and envious of others." Mianze, why did you think of coming to see this palace today? ”

"Get up!"

Xia Chuqi sat on the stool on the side of the desk and glanced at it as if nothing was there. Zhao Mianze is still wearing filial piety for Prince Yide, there are no accessories on his body, he is dressed in pure white filial piety clothes, which looks a little less clear than usual, but his face is still warm. When she looked at him, he also looked over, and his eyes seemed to light up slightly.

"The concubine body is ...... the queen's mother"

"Grandchildren see Grandma."

Soon, Zhao Mianze and Xia Wenqiu went around into Queen Zhang's bedroom from behind the screen that depicted "Flowers Bloom and Wealth", and bowed to the ground.

"Let them in."

Her "nervous and scared" appearance pleased Empress Zhang. After a few heavy breaths, Queen Zhang patted her hand, hinting that she "don't worry", so she straightened her chin and asked her to sit on the side of the desk to go up to prescribe the prescription, and then asked Grandma Sun to come over, help her get up and lean on the pillow, and instructed lightly.

"Niangniang, the Duke of Wei is powerful, and the second grandson of the emperor is a person valued by His Majesty, I, what I just said ......"

Squinting slightly, she looked at Empress Zhang.

Heh, it's really a narrow road?

At the beginning of the summer, he was stunned.

"Niangniang, the second grandson of the emperor and Mrs. Fang came to greet Niangniang and waited outside the palace."

Maybe she didn't finish saying anything, and the eunuch Hu He came in to report.

"What a good boy, it's weird and distressing. Why didn't this palace announce your entry into the palace earlier? If it had been earlier, I might have ......"

The corners of Empress Zhang's lips trembled, and she smiled softly.

After thinking about it, Xia Chuqi clenched her hand, sat on the edge of her bed, and followed her back, "Niangniang, there is a 'struggle' relationship between the human body and poison, if you are weak, it will be strong, and if you are strong, it will be weak." Niangniang, you have to keep your feelings soothed now, don't get angry, don't get depressed, Chu Qi will find a way to relieve Niangniang's pain, try to detoxify, think about it, it can ease some ......"

"So it's not cured?"

Closing her eyes, Empress Zhang smiled and coughed.

Xia Chuqi frowned, "Niangniang, Chu Qi is a healer, and he must tell you the truth." If it had been detected earlier, there would have been hope for a cure. Only now your 'poison' has spread to the lungs and formed tumors in the lungs. Now you have started hemoptysis, it should be that the tumor has ruptured and soaked into the bronchial and pulmonary blood vessels......"

"Child, can this poison in this palace still be cured?"

Empress Zhang shook her head and tightened her hand.

"Niangniang, don't worry, this poison can't be ......"

She shouted, and Xia Chuqi went over and squeezed her hand.

"Kid ......"

Pulling at the aching chest, Empress Zhang's face became more and more pale.

The old emperor attached great importance to Zhao Mianze, cultivated Zhao Mianze, and wanted to make him the prince to inherit the unification, how could Empress Zhang not know? Zhao Mianze attaches great importance to Xia Wenqiu, and attaches great importance to her as a woman in the entire backyard, how could Empress Zhang not know? She thought: Xia Tingde's old thief is really good, when Zhao Mianze sits firmly on the throne, who will he let be the queen, then he has the final say? One mountain can't tolerate two tigers, can the harem accommodate two women? For the sake of his daughter, he actually counted her early?

But Empress Zhang heard the sound outside the strings.

On the surface, there is no serious conflict.

She's a loss, a real loss!

With her head down, she slowly walked to the bedside, she pretended to be nervous and said, "Niangniang, this matter, too, maybe Wei Guogong is also unaware of it." After all, there is no profit and you can't afford to be early, and you don't have any serious conflicts between Wei Guogong and Niangniang, so you won't be so ......"

As a wicked person, she has to continue to be a "good person".

Don't talk about "radioactive elements", the "disaster star" alone is enough for Xia Tingde to drink a pot. I just wonder if his butt that was beaten to the point of blooming is better now? Still can't stand it?

Xia Chuqi looked at her worriedly, and her heart couldn't be more happy.

"This Xia Tingde, what a bold ......"

Empress Zhang's face was pale, and her throat was "whirring", but her mood was much calmer than Xia Chuqi expected, neither angry on the spot, nor angry shouting "take people", just looked at her sharply, and her voice was hoarse.

"Niangniang, this meteorite, in fact, there is another saying, the common people also call it a comet, a broom star, that is, a kind of disaster star, you should have heard of this, right?"

Of course, it is true that the meteorite contains radioactive elements, but what it is, and whether it is the real cause of Empress Zhang's cancer, is not a question she has to consider. She believes that according to the level of the old ghost of Naxia, I am afraid that he still doesn't know this, but he is unlucky to meet her on the seventh day of the first summer. To put it bluntly, she sincerely wants to frame a false accusation, no matter whether it is a meteorite candlestick or a comb she encounters today, she can also weave a flower for him.

The meteorite used in this candlestick, which she had seen in the East Palace, was the parrot stand of Xia Wenqiu. At that time, for the sake of the red-billed green parrot, she specially observed. This kind of meteorite is rare, Xia Wenqiu likes that parrot, and the parrot frame will naturally be carefully prepared, she only guessed that it would be related to Xia Tingde, so it was really accurate.

Xia Chuqi's heart was secretly refreshed, and he didn't guess wrong.

Empress Zhang glanced at her, withdrew her hand and put it on her lap, rubbed it gently, and said lightly, "The one that Wei Guogong presented to the palace is a rare Tongtian Divine Stone, and the craftsman specially built it for the palace." This stone is rare, and I like it when I look at it, so I have been using it. ”

"Mother, where did this candlestick come from?"

Xia Chuqi observed her complexion, deliberately hesitating and wanting to speak.

"I see."

Empress Zhang went from being surprised to stunned, and hesitated for a long time before exhaling.

Her words are very different.

Xia Chuqi pursed his lower lip, "Tongtian Stone? Oh, back to my mother, this thing is called a meteorite in our place again. It is inherently non-toxic, and it is not so harmful to human life. But there is a radioactive substance hidden deep in this stone, which we call it a radioactive element. This kind of radioactive elements are not harmful to the human body for a short period of time, but if you are exposed to it for a long time, and it is made into a candlestick, when you set off the candle every day, the candlestick will be heated, which will accelerate the invasion of radioactive elements to the human body, and over time, radioactive elements will cause your body to produce cell mutations, this poison, unlike the poison next to it, is not easy to be detected, and it is more difficult to treat......"

Empress Zhang thought for a while, "It is said that it is a kind of thing called 'Tongtian Stone', which can be produced in the world. Isn't that right? ”

Seeing her stunned and obviously incredulous, Xia Chuqi smiled slightly, "Niangniang, do you know what this candlestick is made of?" ”

"Candlesticks? Candlesticks are poisonous? ”

Empress Zhang's face changed slightly.

"Mother, it's poisonous."

The candlestick is very exquisite, up and down a large and a small two jade plates, the outside is embossed with the exquisite word "longevity", the base is set off with a lotus petal pattern, and the candlestick body is carved with a phoenix pattern, which can be seen to be specially made for the queen.

Step by step, she approached the candlestick and reached out to touch it.

She said that it was "poison", and there had to be an exact explanation. Otherwise, how can you convince this shrewd queen mother? Xia Chuqi stroked the bun on his head, got up calmly, and from the pillow, bedding, and feet used by Empress Zhang to the tea cup, dressing table, flower table, coffee table, cabinet, stool, ink table, Bogu frame, and incense burner, he saw a phoenix-patterned candlestick carved with the word "longevity" on the rectangular table in the corner of the wall, and then squinted slightly.

"Niangniang, Chu Qi is still not sure, let me check it carefully."

A woman who looks down on life and death is not simple.

Looking at her quietly, Xia Chuqi admired.

Empress Zhang calmed down, and her tone was warm and indifferent.

"How long? What kind of poison is it? ”

Before saying "poisoning", she had already thought about it, in a place like the harem, eating people without spitting out bones, even if no one harms her, a woman who is the queen can give birth to "murder paranoia", not to mention such an intricate court situation? She believes that Empress Zhang would rather believe that it is "poisoning" than may be able to accept a "cancer" that she has never heard of.

Empress Zhang seemed to suddenly feel a little cold in her body, pulled the quilt over, and slowly covered her waist, the action seemed unhurried, but the slightly trembling fingers still did not escape Xia Chuqi's eyes.

"Niangniang, Chu Qi has the courage to speak clearly, and asks Niangniang to forgive her sins."

But Xia Chuqi didn't sit down.

A mouthful of "hanging air" finally fell.

"Sit down and talk."

The two looked at each other for a long time, and Queen Zhang's gaze docked, examined, pondered, and doubted her in the air several times...... Slowly, little by little, it gets complicated. Until her expression finally eased up, and she raised her hand slightly.

Empress Zhang didn't speak, and Xia Chuqi didn't speak when she looked at her.

As soon as the word "poison" came out, the hall fell silent.
