Chapter 243: Questioning
Gao Jian is not only very powerful, he can scold people so much that he can't lift his head, he has a dead heart, he is also very elegant, good at calligraphy, music theory, and good at playing the piano. He is a eunuch who is very favored by the fat emperor, and the fat emperor once commented that he is "cautious and simple, and practiced to be old", and he belongs to the person who does things to make the fat emperor particularly relieved. He is already in his fifties, and he usually does not serve in front of the palace, but has another residence outside the palace. After Empress Zhang gave the order, the chamberlain of Kunning Palace hurriedly received the order, left the Forbidden City, and went to Gao Jian's house outside the palace to pick up people.
It was going to take some time.
Empress Zhang couldn't help but be a little sullen, "Why is it so slow?" "His Majesty the Emperor is gone, I can't do whatever I want, and it takes so much time to summon a small eunuch.
Who do I want to die, and he dares not to come by galloping, and let me deal with it?
I have been aggrieved in the position of the queen for so long, and it is easy to survive until His Majesty the Emperor Bintian, I am about to become the queen mother, and there are still problems that go well? It doesn't make sense.
Qiu Guifei lay on the ground weakly, her eyes wide open, and her expression was painful. "You're still angry." Empress Zhang glanced at Qiu Guifei in annoyance, and found it interesting, the female official asked whether to carry Qiu Guifei down, but Empress Zhang refused with a smile, "Don't worry, let her lie down." ”
Watching Qiu Guifei, who had been against him for many years, die miserably, his heart was extremely comfortable. What to carry away? Wouldn't it be a pity not to be able to watch her breathe.
"What happened to the Qianqing Palace?" Empress Zhang called the female officer on duty and asked.
"I haven't mourned." The female officer replied with sincere fear.
A sneering smile appeared on the corner of Empress Zhang's mouth.
Don't you want to mourn, Xiao Shi, you're so stupid.
"In that case, I'll wait quietly in the Kunning Palace." Empress Zhang said idly.
It's good not to mourn, I can calmly execute Qiu to death, and I can wait for Gao Jian to arrive, and watch him lay down with my own eyes. If I start to mourn, it will be difficult for me, the surviving person of the emperor, not to show up. Of course, I can instruct the chamberlain to get this done properly, but if I hadn't seen Qiu and Gao Jian die in front of me with my own eyes, how could I be willing.
There are still many people I have to deal with, but these two are the most hateful, I can't wait for a day, and today I want them to die in Kunning Palace! ――
Anyway, I won't live in this Kunning Palace in the future. Empress Zhang looked at Qiu Guifei who was struggling on the ground, looking at the little blood on the ground, and her eyes were full of smiles. This palace that has died, this unlucky palace, I don't live in it, let it go.
I hope she can live here with peace of mind and peace.
I hope she'll live here for a long time.
Empress Zhang smiled slightly, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were full of pride.
Empress Zhang sent out to arrest Gao Jian's chamberlain surnamed Huang, Huang Neishou was a warm-hearted person, bent on currying favor with Empress Zhang, and he would rise step by step. He was worried about what Empress Zhang had explained, and he just wanted to hurry out of the palace to improve Jane, and he didn't notice that the guards in the Forbidden City were extremely tight, with three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and all the guards were in bright armor, holding waist knives, as if they were ready to fight at any time.
When he was about to leave the palace, he was interrogated by Jin Wuwei. Huang Neishou was very angry, "It's the opposite! You dare to interrogate the people of Kunning Palace! Doesn't this take the queen in your eyes? The leader of the Jin Wuwei smiled and said politely, "I have been ordered by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to guard the gate here, and all people who come and go must be searched, without exception, please understand." As he spoke, his subordinates kept doing it himself, and searched all the Huang Neishou and several small attendants accompanying him, and only after seeing that there was no prohibition before he was released.
"You don't have long eyes, wait for me!" Huang Nei Shi angrily threw down a cruel word, took the little inner servant, and went straight to Gao Jian's residence.
The leader of Jin Wuwei looked at the backs of Huang Neishou and the others, thoughtful.
He called a few soldiers and quietly commanded a few words, and the soldiers understood, and followed Huang Neishi and the others away, responsible for monitoring.
He called another soldier and said, "Report to the commander." The soldier received the order and hurried away.
On this day, the guards in charge of Miyagi's guards were all like enemies. But if there is any abnormality, it must be reported immediately.
Ordered someone to invite Pei Erye, and asked Xiao Shen and Xiao Xie to him, "Dad, the four big ones are somewhat sensible, these two little ones, I'm always afraid of scaring them." "A four-year-old cannot be expected to understand such a tragic matter as life and death.
Pei Erye gently agreed, "Nan, daddy, you just have to rest assured." ”
Nodding with tears, "Yes, I can rest assured that you are here." ”
It's nice to have a dad.
Pei Erye has often taken care of the children with the Fat Emperor over the years, and he is also very sad about the departure of the Fat Emperor. He is a man in the end, although he is sad, he is not willing to be emotional, and he has asked carefully, "How are the palace guards?" What happened to the funeral rites drawn up by the ministers and the Ministry of Rites? Nan, these major events, no matter how sad they are, they must not be ignored. "The filial sons and grandsons of ordinary families only need to be sad when they encounter their father's funeral, but you and the crown prince can't, the safety of the palace and the stability of the court cannot be ignored.
Tell Second Master Pei, "Jinyi Wei, Jin Wuwei, Yulin Wei and other guards have been under the command of the tenth brother in the past two years, and the palace is heavily guarded. The ministers of the court have already discussed the funeral etiquette, but the tenth brother is very stubborn and will have to wait. ”
He probably knew in his heart that the emperor's father had already left and would not come back, but he still refused to admit it clearly, and wanted to lie to himself.
Second Master Pei felt miserable, "It's really pitiful." ”
said in a low voice: "This is the time when Brother Ten is the most vulnerable and needs his relatives the most, and I have to accompany him." Daddy, the children are here. ”
"Go ahead." Second Master Pei nodded.
thanked my father, kissed the children one by one, and reluctantly left.
The tenth brother who guarded his father's body and refused to leave needed her.
Since I met him at the age of four years and four months, he has brought a lot of joy, countless surprises, warmth, and affection, and the two have been close to each other for so many years, and they have long become a necessity in each other's lives. He can't do without her, and she can't do without him.
When he was in pain, she wouldn't leave him alone.
She'll be there for him—
Huang Neishou returned to Miyagi with Gao Jian, but he was still strictly interrogated, and he did not relax at all. Not only Huang Nei, but also Gao Jian, who was brought back by Huang Neihui as a prisoner, was also carefully searched by the soldiers to confirm that there was no entrainment, and then let them into the palace.
Huang Neishou was very dissatisfied, and shouted a lot of cruel words, but he said that his, the guards should be checked, and he refused to relax for half a minute.
Not only did they refuse to relax, but I am afraid that the time to check on their group will take longer than the normal investigation.
"You did it on purpose, right?" Huang Neishou glanced at these Jin Wuwei and gritted his teeth with hatred. You don't have long eyes, wait for Lao Tzu! When the Queen Mother speaks, none of you will die well! Huang Nei snorted angrily, took Gao Jian, and went in the direction of Kunning Palace.
The Jinwu guards quickly reported up.
Jin Wuwei commanded Chen Lingyun to be a little uneasy that day. Empress Zhang summoned Qiu Guifei and Gao Jian! Concubine Qiu, Gao Jian, these are all people that Queen Zhang dislikes very much......
Originally, Chen Lingyun and other guard commanders reported something directly to the crown prince, but the situation on this day was different, the crown prince was in extreme grief and needed to report something to the crown princess. Chen Lingyun reported all the changes that Jin Wuwei saw to the crown princess, "...... The chamberlain of Kunning Palace went to catch Gao Jian outside the palace. Gao Jian was almost caught like a prisoner, describing him as embarrassed. ”
Standing behind the bead curtain and listening to Jin Wuwei's return, his anger rose with anger.
The tenth brother is already grieving, Queen Zhang, you are his own mother, you don't care about anything at this time, you want to take revenge first?! Gao Jian, that is the eunuch that the first emperor admired and loved during his lifetime, just because he scolded your baby daughter by order, the first emperor's bones are not cold, do you want to toss Gao Jian. The tenth brother's feelings for his father are so deep, on the day of the death of the first emperor, you tossed the eunuchs that the first emperor loved so much, how can the tenth brother's love be embarrassed!
"Go to Kunning Palace." Order.
"Obey the order!" Chen Lingyun outside the bead curtain was overjoyed.
Guifei Niangniang, the crown princess is going to Kunning Palace, you have been saved......
Although Chen Lingyun was not sure that Qiu Guifei must be in danger in Kunning Palace, there was no doubt that Empress Zhang would definitely not be good if she summoned the two "enemies" of Qiu Guifei and Gao Jian.
Chen Lingyun couldn't wait to rush over and rescue Qiu Guifei.
In Chen Lingyun's life, there are very few elderly women who care for him very much, and he is very grateful to Qiu Guifei for taking care of him.
With the palace maid guard, the group went to Kunning Palace.
When she arrived, Empress Zhang was sitting on top and angrily reprimanded Gao Jian, "...... Whatever His Majesty tells you to do, you will do it, yes and no? Since you are so loyal to Your Majesty, go with Your Majesty! ”
Gao Jian knelt on the ground, his body was full of sadness, and his voice was full of pain, "It is Gao Jian's supreme honor to follow Emperor Daxing underground!" ”
When an emperor goes, the eunuchs he once favored will be given death and burial, how common it is in this palace. As a eunuch trusted and admired by the emperor, Gao Jian did not plan to live in peace after the emperor's death.
Empress Zhang smiled arrogantly, and the female official beside her brought a cup full of poisonous wine to Gao Jian.
"Stop!" Broke in with someone.
The female officer's hands trembled and hesitated. Why did the crown princess come? Not only is she here, but the crown princess looks very scary, there seems to be a fire in her eyes, and she looks very angry? Niangniang is her mother-in-law, but she is not half submissive and domineering towards Niangniang.
The crown princess is nothing in front of the queen, but such a crown princess makes the female official afraid.
Empress Zhang's face sank, "Crown Princess, is this your courtesy as a daughter-in-law?" The Pei family really taught a good daughter! ”
As soon as this reprimand came out, Queen Zhang really felt that her limbs were all comfortable. I've wanted to train you like this for a long time! Your Majesty is alive, I have been putting up with you, I can't bear it anymore, and I will endure it again. Now that Your Majesty is gone, and there is no one to protect you, I can finally raise my eyebrows and be proud of my majesty as a mother-in-law!
It's a good feeling. Queen Zhang was comfortable and moved.
I have today.
Qiu Guifei, who was lying on the ground, raised her head with difficulty, "Too, the crown princess ......"
The wine she drank was so poisonous that she should have died a long time ago. But Queen Zhang's words made her feel cold all over her body, and she thought that her three sons would be plotted by Queen Zhang after her death, so she was unwilling to swallow this breath.
Seeing Qiu Guifei's appearance, what else don't you understand?
"Queen Zhang, she actually ...... "cold hands and feet."
Concubines with sons are not martyred, this is the rule in the palace. But Qiu Guifei obviously has three sons, and Queen Zhang will actually attack her.
The rules are no longer binding on Queen Zhang.
Chen Lingyun saw Qiu Guifei who fell to the ground, and his heart sank. "She loved me, she really planned for me, but at this moment, I was powerless in the face of her in a desperate situation!"
Even if you are not a doctor, you can see that Qiu Guifei is no longer good. Her life, Hua Tuo can't save it in her life.
She probably only had her last breath left.
"I, I don't want to, die here......" Qiu Guifei said intermittently and with great difficulty.
Compassion.
This is Kunning Palace, the queen's bedroom. Soon, this will become the bedroom of her future queen, Qiu Guifei held on and refused to die here, because she didn't want to defile this place, right? After all, where people have died, it is always unlucky and disgusting. She was going to die, not for herself, of course, but for her son, her relatives.
"I, my son......" Qiu Guifei looked at it with the last of her strength.
The dying woman in front of her used to be very hateful, she was sorry for Lin Youhui, and brought a lot of trouble to Pei Erye and Lin Youhui. After marrying into the East Palace, she has made trouble more than once, which is annoying. But she is a mother in the end, she can't let go of her son, she doesn't dare to die in Kunning Palace, she is also pleading for her son when she is dying.
"The crown prince is benevolent and filial and will treat his brother well." Said solemnly.
Brother Ten doesn't like his three half-brothers, but he definitely won't treat them lightly. Because, they have the same father.
A flash of ecstasy flashed in Qiu Guifei's eyes.
The order said: "Carry Qiu Guifei back to Guangfu Palace." ”
She has lived in Guangfu Palace for decades, so let her breathe in a place she is familiar with.
The attendant in the East Palace was about to step forward, but Queen Zhang's face turned blue and slapped the table, "Crown Princess, do you still take me in your eyes?" ”
In my Kunning Palace, you dare to make your own decisions without asking me? It's too domineering.
glanced at her contemptuously and commanded, "Do it!" ”
Empress Zhang shouted at the same time: "Don't carry her away!" ”
The waiter in the East Palace agreed, and stepped forward to carry Concubine Qiu. The chamberlains and female officials of Kunning Palace wanted to step forward to stop them, but they had no choice but to have Jin Wuwei in front of them, and when it came to force, they were not opponents at all.
Qiu Guifei was still alive and was carried out of Kunning Palace.
Empress Zhang's angry seven orifices smoked, "It's reversed, it's reversed!" "The daughter-in-law brought someone to argue with her mother-in-law, when will there be such a thing in the palace? It's the other way around.
Empress Zhang pointed at Chen Lingyun and said sharply: "Look at the costumes, are you the commander of Jin Wuwei?" How dare you disobey the Queen's orders and obey the orders of the Crown Princess? ”
Chen Lingyun was saddened by the tragic death of Concubine Qiu, full of hatred for Empress Zhang, and said in a deep voice: "Jin Wuwei is loyal to the emperor, not the queen mother!" ”
Don't think that if you are going to be the queen mother soon, you can order Jin Wuwei. Jin Wuwei is His Majesty's personal guard, and he only obeys His Majesty's orders, not His Majesty's mother!
Put the queen of the chapter angry. Of course, I know that you are loyal to the emperor, not the queen mother, but is there an emperor standing in front of you at this time?
If Xiao Shi is here, Jin Wuwei listens to Xiao Shi and doesn't listen to himself, Queen Zhang still thinks it's acceptable. However, this is in front of me, and I am about to become the queen mother, and I can't compare!
Empress Zhang was already out of anger.
This is a great insult to her.
"Crown Princess, you are so uneducated." Empress Zhang was heartbroken, "Do you know how to write the word filial piety?" ”
Looking at Queen Zhang's wrinkled face, her heart was full of disgust. Empress Zhang and the Fat Emperor are almost the same age, the Fat Emperor was so loving and gentle during his lifetime, and she, from head to toe, was full of malice, which really made people unable to respect her.
"The crown prince stayed at the bed of His Majesty the Father and refused to leave." Slowly, word by word, he said: "He said, maybe Dad is just asleep, maybe Dad will wake up soon." ”
Empress Zhang shuddered. Alive? He's been in a coma once before.
And if he really came back to life? Empress Zhang shuddered.
looked at Empress Zhang quietly, "The crown prince is very filial to his father, His Majesty, but do you say the queen mother?" He didn't believe that his father was gone, and he was full of hope that his father would come back and continue to protect his children and grandchildren and enjoy the joy of family. Mother, do you say that the crown prince is filial? ”
The words were very slow and clear, and Queen Zhang was intimidated by her momentum, and she was a little weak-hearted.
This is also too calm.
How did the Pei family teach her.
sneered, and his voice suddenly turned high-pitched, "He is so filial, what about you, how did you do it?" All you want is to take revenge and vent your personal anger, and you have never put yourself in the shoes of the crown prince, what kind of mood is he in at this moment! ”
"You secretly executed Qiu Guifei, have you ever thought about how the crown prince would feel? The crown prince's most beloved father has just died, and you have killed the concubine that his father once favored, the mother of his three half-brothers! The crown prince will feel heartache, guilt, and feel sorry for his father, have you ever thought about it? ”
Brother Ten is already grieving, and you will only make him more uncomfortable by doing this, you know?
Brother Ten was already very guilty, and he thought back to the place where he was ignorant since he was a child, "...... If I had been obedient, maybe my father wouldn't have gone so early. "If you do that, you're going to make him feel even more guilty!
If you do this, it also means that Brother Ten will use thousands of Jinyi guards to spy on his three half-brothers - the biological mother was killed, eleven, twelve, and thirteen, how can you not hold a grudge? If they want to rebel, the government and the opposition will be shaken. Therefore, the tenth brother has no other way but to keep a close watch on his younger brothers.
How embarrassing these things are for Brother Ten, have you thought about it?
Although the tenth brother is a legitimate crown prince, he should not encounter any obstacles to the throne, but the transition of power is always risky and should be careful. He hasn't ascended the throne yet, his throne is not secure, and you are his mother, shouldn't these be your first considerations?
Are you his own mother?
