Chapter 43: The Death of the Song Empress (2-in-1 Super Chapter)
In the sixth year of Xiping, August 14, Changqiu Palace.
Queen Song's original name was Song Yu, but now many people have forgotten her name, because of the back crown on her head, everyone only remembers her as Queen Song.
"Queen Mother, Yan'er will dress you up today, and then put on your best-looking hairpin for you! Holy Lord! Maybe I'll come to see you today! ”
A little palace maid about fourteen or fifteen years old, with white skin, playful and cute, was standing behind Queen Song, so diligent that she was dressed up and put on makeup.
"The most beautiful hairpin in the mourning family? Little Swallow, which hairpin is that? ”
Queen Song smiled slightly, responded to the little girl behind her, and also raised her head to look at herself in the mirror.
The face of the goose egg, the snow-white skin, the small bridge of the nose, and the jet-black hair delicately coiled a small mustache on the top of the head.
Although she can't be said to be one in a million beauties, she is also a graceful and luxurious lady.
The only fly in the ointment is that there are already thin, silky wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
"Queen Mother! That must be the hairpin that His Majesty gave you when he made you queen! “
The little maid named Swallow pouted and responded playfully.
A hairpin from His Majesty?
That seems like seven years ago......
Empress Song looked at herself in the mirror and slowly fell into the memory.....
What kind of scenery did you once have? At the age of sixteen, he was already a nobleman by the court.
In the following year, she was favored by God and became the queen of the world!
It's just that she was too stupid at the time, and her mind was full of becoming a woman who was a mother in the world.
I want to teach the harem with etiquette, and I want to be famous for my kindness.
But he who forgot all this to himself was the one on the throne of the dragon.
However, his introverted and gentle temperament really can't deliberately please and cater to that man, but I'm afraid that he is the Ninety-Five.
So, that one doesn't like himself more and more.
Maybe he never liked himself!
"Then put on that hairpin!"
Today, Empress Song has something very important, she wants to meet the person on the dragon throne in person.
Therefore, the ghost sent the gods, and Queen Song really wanted to wear that hairpin again.
Hearing this, the little girl began to hurriedly look for it in the jewelry box on the side.
After a while, the maidservant girl named Yanzi said with a little embarrassment:
"Queen Mother, didn't you put that hairpin here?"
Queen Song smiled, did not blame Yanzi for her faux pas, she was still as gentle as ever, and she didn't even call herself a mourner anymore, and said empathetically:
"Little girl, look at your memory! That is, I am easy to talk, if I change to another mother in the future, don't lose it again! Otherwise, you will be punished, and the hairpin should be in the ornament box where I am sleeping, and you will find it. ”
Yanzi pursed his mouth, but suddenly stopped, looked like he wanted to say and stopped, kept pinching his little hand, and hesitated for a long time:
"Queen Song, otherwise, we won't wear that this time! Swallow, Swallow will help you find a few other good-looking ones..."
"Little Swallow, can't you just take my hairpin and buy money!? If you really take it for money, then it won't work, I'm nothing, until I let Your Majesty know, I'm going to cut off my head! I still have some money here, so you can take it and redeem it!" ”
Queen Song looked at the little girl with an anxious face and asked kindly.
When Yanzi heard this, he was also taken aback, and suddenly knelt down:
"Your Majesty! Don't worry, swallow, swallow is here to find it, you wait. ”
After that, he didn't wait for Queen Song to reply, and trotted all the way to the house.
"Report, Your Majesty and Concubine He have arrived!" Suddenly, there was a sudden announcement from outside the door.
Your Majesty hasn't taken the initiative to come for a long time, I don't know why you came with Concubine He today?
A hint of discoloration flashed in Empress Song's eyes, and she got up and went to the Changqiu Palace to greet her.
Outside the palace gate, a person with a face like prostration, wearing a yellow coat is naturally Liu Hong.
And another woman, dressed in red, dressed in gorgeous clothes, under the slender jade neck, a crisp chest like clotted white jade, half-covered and half-hidden, a bundle of plain waist, not even a hand, a pair of long and well-proportioned legs are exposed, and even the beautiful lotus feet are silently enchanting, very gorgeous! This is His Majesty's new concubine, Concubine He.
The last person, Queen He, is even more known, is the Zhongchang servant Wang Fu, and I think this person is also on duty today.
"Oh, my sister is so beautiful today!"
As soon as He Guiren saw Queen Song, before Liu Hong could speak, he took the initiative to greet him, and Liu Hong smiled and didn't care about He's transgression at all.
"Sister, my sister has been missing her sister so much these days, I don't think about tea or food; Today, fortunately, His Majesty came to rest in my palace and saw that I had lost some weight, so he took me to meet my sister and relieve my lovesickness! ”
Empress Song looked at the beautiful woman in front of her, and responded lightly:
"He Guifei, if you want to come to me, you can come here at any time!"
"Oh, sister, it's just me! Your Majesty wants to see you, too! After all, His Majesty also has .. Two months? There will be a period of time in the future of this Changqiu Palace! ”
I don't know why, Queen Song suddenly felt disgusted by this noble person.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Cheng has asked you to say goodbye!"
Queen Song gave Liu Hong a dignified salute!
"No excuses! Today, Concubine He said that she wanted to see the queen, and I didn't come over for a while, so I came over to see you. ”
Liu Hong said casually, and then took He Guifei's hand and walked straight inside.
"Your Majesty."
Empress Song didn't say much, and followed Liu Hong back to the Changqiu Palace.
Wang Fu, on the other hand, stood respectfully outside the Changqiu Palace and waited.
"Niangniang, Niangniang, the hairpin has been found!"
At this moment, the swallow trotted out again with a hairpin.
When everyone heard the reputation, they saw a little maid holding a green hairpin in her hand, the hairpin body was carved with a lifelike colorful phoenix, a snow lotus bloomed quietly on the hairpin, and a lotus flower-like pendant, which was elegant and dusty.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...."
The swallow seemed to be frightened, and stood there resignedly, not daring to make a sound.
"Why is this little maid so rude?" Seeing this, Liu Hong also frowned.
Seeing this, Queen Song immediately stepped forward, blocked in front of Yanzi, and said to Liu Hong:
"Your Majesty, it's all concubines who don't teach well, if you want to punish them, just punish the concubines."
At this time, He Guifei also suddenly walked in front of Queen Song and knelt directly in front of Liu Hong:
"Your Majesty! Please forgive Your Majesty Empress Song, after all, Empress Song is the main mother of a country, ruling the harem, how can she have time to manage these small things! ”
Saying that, He Guifei even had tears in the corners of her eyes, and she delicately begged Liu Hong:
"Please beg Your Majesty to bypass Queen Song, Your Majesty wants to punish, it is better to beat the concubines!"
Seeing He Guifei worshipping at her feet, blinking her big eyes, Chu Chu looked pitiful, where could Liu Hong be willing to give up! I saw Liu Hong take a step forward, take He Guifei into his arms, and said gently:
"Guifei, how could I beat you? Don't say it's you, even Queen Song, I won't punish it! ”
Then, Liu Hong raised his head and looked at Queen Song on the side:
"That's it, take care of your own handmaiden! It's okay to learn from He Guifei, and I know the general situation like He Guifei, and I am also pleased! ”
Before Queen Song could answer, Concubine He Guifei was panting again, broke free from Liu Hong's embrace, walked to Yan'er, picked up the hairpin in Yan'er's hand, pouted and looked at Liu Hong:
"This hairpin is really beautiful, Your Majesty, you haven't given me such a beautiful hairpin!"
Hearing this, Liu Hong responded helplessly:
"Concubine! How can there be less pearls and jewels in your palace? I gave you so many beautiful hairpins, how can you not remember my goodness! ”
"Your Majesty! Uh-huh~ The concubine wants this! ”
As he spoke, He Guiren held a hairpin in one hand, and upstairs Liu Hong in the other, and began to be coquettish.
Liu Hong was hugged by He Guifei and giggled, and then looked at Queen Song:
"Queen, as the head of the first palace, why don't you give this hairpin to He Guiren? I'll send you a few more in the future! ”
Queen Song was stunned suddenly, looked at Liu Hong, and did not speak.
"Queen, don't you want to?" Liu Hong's tone was suddenly a little cold.
The two stared at each other for a few seconds, and the temperature around them seemed to drop.
After a long time, Queen Song sighed inaudibly, bowed her head, and said softly:
"Your Majesty is interested, how can the concubine not obey!"
However, just when Queen Song just agreed, Concubine He Guifei took another slender step and walked in front of Queen Song, regardless of Queen Song's surprise, she directly took a hairpin and stabbed it on Queen Song's hair!
"Ahh The pain of her hair being pulled by the hairpin made Queen Song can't help but cry out.
"Ahh Did my sister hurt my sister? It's just that my sister saw that my sister liked this hairpin so much, and I couldn't bear to take away my sister's love, so my sister apologized to my sister here. ”
As she spoke, Concubine He gave a salute to Queen Song, and then continued as if inadvertently:
"As the mother of a country, my sister has to lead the harem well, and now many people have said bad things about my sister behind my back! Sister doesn't care, but she can't hurt His Majesty's face! ”
As soon as Liu Hong heard this, he immediately asked He Guifei seriously:
"Who dares to talk about me behind my back? Also, what was the content of the discussion! ”
When He Guifei heard this, she took two steps back in panic, and stammered in response to Liu Hong:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Concubine Cheng said the wrong thing! Please forgive your majesty for becoming a concubine! ”
Liu Hong heard this, of course he did not forgive, in this world of the Han Dynasty, who dares to provoke the majesty of the Liu family!
At that moment, Liu Hong took He Guifei's arm and asked again:
"Aifei, you need to be honest with me about this! How can Queen Song say that she is also the master of the harem, how can she allow others to criticize? ”
He Guiren suddenly shook off Liu Hong's palm, knelt on the ground again, and said as if choked:
"Your Majesty, who said it at the beginning, the concubine really didn't see it clearly, but this content, this content ....."
Liu Hong frowned and said:
"Say!"
He Guiren suddenly cried, and actually lay at Liu Hong's feet:
"Your Majesty, the concubines and concubines heard that someone slandered Queen Song and cursed her for often making witches in the palace! And the cursed one, the cursed one .... Your Majesty, you! ”
When Queen Song heard this, her face changed instantly, and she hurriedly knelt down:
"Your Majesty! The concubine was wronged! How could a concubine curse Your Majesty! ”
Liu Hong looked coldly at the soles of the two of them, and after a while, he said:
"Let Wang Fu come over outside the door!"
........
"Your Majesty! Do you have something to do with the old slave? ”
Wang Fu bowed his waist very low, like an old dog lying on the ground.
"Are there any rumors about me and the Empress in the palace recently?"
Liu Hong asked coldly!
"This, Your Majesty, this ....."
Wang Fu stammered, but his eyes turned to Queen Song who was kneeling on the ground from time to time.
When Liu Hong saw it, he immediately understood three points, and immediately threw up his sleeves and walked straight to the house.
"Humph! Wang Fu, follow me into the queen's room to have a look! ”
Wang Fu naturally didn't dare to disobey, and followed Liu Hong inward, but when he passed by He Guifei, the two looked at each other, and a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of Wang Fu's mouth.
Empress Song's bedroom is very simple, everything is meticulously placed and neat.
Liu Hong looked around and saw a box, with four or five layers of silk scarves underneath, neatly spread out, which was obviously wrapped layer by layer and just opened today.
It was Liu Hong's first gift to Queen Song at that time, and it was the jasper hairpin outside.
I didn't expect her to keep the gifts she gave so seriously, and remembered that Queen Song usually treated him with a meticulous heart, gentle and tactful, and there was no big mistake so far.
Liu Hong's anger seemed to be alleviated a little.
Perhaps, I have neglected her too much over the years!
Liu Hong took two steps forward and gently rubbed the box with his hand, as if he didn't plan to rummage through this bedroom anymore.
"Squeak." Liu Hong gently opened the box.
The corners of Liu Hong's eyes were suddenly exposed! The two eyes were suddenly full of bloodshots! Hideous like a devil!
Inside the box is a little man in a royal coat full of needles!
"Bang dang!" Liu Hong struggled to slam the box to the ground!
"Song Yu, you get me in!"
When Queen Song heard this, she was also shocked, and quickly got up and ran to the house.
However, when she saw the broken box on the floor and the little man who seemed to be laughing on the side, her face turned pale instantly.
"Plop!" Empress Song fell to the floor.
How so? How could there be this!
She, Song Yu, has never cursed His Majesty with a witch Gu! Why did she curse Your Majesty as the mother of a nation!
She suddenly thought of something, and looked back at the slave named Yan'er.
Yan'er's face was full of tears at this time, her head was lowered, and she didn't dare to look at her.
At this moment, Song Yu seemed to understand everything.....
