Chapter 90: The Feast of the Hung Gate (1)
Jiang Ruihou sneered and said sarcastically: "If I were you, the first thing I would do after I came out was not to come to the cold palace to see the jokes of the old man, but to go to Your Majesty first to see if this person's old Zhuhuang and ruined appearance can still win Your Majesty's favor again." Hehehe-look at you, it's clear that you're a few years younger than me, and I'm still full of green hair, but you're already full of gray hair, and you look much older than me, hey......"
Xu Guiren didn't care, and said with a sneer: "Aren't these all thanks to you?" In these years of deep palace, how proud you are, how painful and sad I am, you are alive, I am boiled out, can I compare with you? However, the only thing I can compare to you right now is to see who dies first. Haha-"
Bitter and mournful laughter filled this night of lightning and thunder.
Jiang wasted a cold snort, and said without shock: "I know that you came today to kill me." But if you kill me, how can you live? ”
Xu Guiren stopped laughing and said word by word: "I came to kill you today, so I didn't expect to live by myself." It's been more than 20 years, and the grievances between you and me will end tonight. ”
I don't know when, there was already an extra dagger in her hand that was shining with cold light, she looked at the sharp dagger, and poured out the words: "Jiang Fengjia, can't you think of it?" I have endured humiliation for 20 years, and today I can do whatever I want to you, this is the fastest thing in my life! ”
"Haha-" Jiang laughed after the abolition: "I thought that the most alive thing for you was when you were under Your Majesty, otherwise you wouldn't be willing to be lonely, and you hooked up with Your Majesty while I was pregnant, and you were pregnant with the cheap seed of King You!" ”
Xu Guiren's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he said hoarsely: "After so many years, you still refuse to believe me!" It wasn't me who intentionally climbed the dragon and the phoenix back then! Rather, how many lives do I have to refuse Jun'en? Later, I gave birth to Yao'er, but I was cornered by you, I was helpless, so I hurt my appearance and avoided you! also let his son come to be ridiculous, just to prove to you, I Xu Lanfang has no intention of fighting with you, and my son is not good enough to be a big responsibility! It's been in your hands for twenty years! ”
"You deserve it! Back then, you hooked Your Majesty under my nose, do you think I can swallow this breath? It's just that you are from my palace, if something happens to you, the first person to suspect will be me, if I don't want to avoid suspicion, you think you can live to this day? But even if I let you live, I won't make you comfortable! What do you think? Your Majesty, you also hooked, you also gave birth to the dragon seed, but I ruined everything, you must be heartbroken day and night, your son is better than dead, right? That's why I boiled my hair gray early, haha-" Jiang said with relief.
"Poisonous woman!! Do you dare to mention my son's business? Slut! Today I will pick your skin, eat your flesh, and drink your blood. Die! When you die, no one will know about it again! As she spoke, she pounced like a ghost.
On this stormy night, no one saw the scene in the cold palace, and no one heard the screams in the cold palace, the screams were terrible and piercing, as if coming from hell, full of inhuman and terrible suffering.
……
Early the next morning, the wind and rain stopped. The palace people who went to the cold palace to deliver food to the waste queen saw the scene in the room, and fainted in fright after screaming. This scream was like a thunderclap before a storm, and after the boom, it was ushered in by a raging storm. The entire palace was swept up in stormy waves.
The news that shocked the whole country soon came out: the prince's biological mother, Jiang Wu, was brutally killed and died. And next to her miserable corpse was the corpse of Xu Guiren, the biological mother of King You. The former was brutally killed, and the latter committed suicide.
The reason why it is said to be a tragic murder is because one of Jiang Gui's arms was bitten off by Xu Guiren one by one, a piece of flesh and blood is blurred, pitted, and in some places you can still see Sensen's white bones, which is very terrifying.
Overnight, the two concubines in the harem and the biological mothers of the two princes died together, which shocked Nanqian for a while. This royal case was hurriedly reported to Emperor Qiandi in the early dynasty of the ministers, and Emperor Qiandi was shocked when he heard it, and immediately retreated to the cold palace.
Just asked and asked, no one in the cold palace could explain anything, no one knew, how did Xu Guiren, who lived in the depths, come to the cold palace unconsciously, and then kill himself after killing him. Emperor Qian's anger was nowhere to vent, so he put them all to death.
The bodies of the two concubines were covered with white cloths, and the grievances of the two women came to an end, but what was left to the world was endless suspicion and speculation, what kind of grudge was this, which allowed Xu Guiren to resolutely come to the cold palace to kill her after the Jiang family was abolished, and put an end to this unknown deep palace grudge in a way that the fish died and the net was broken. And when Xu Guiren gnawed on Jiang Waste's arm one by one, was Jiang Waste alive or dead? No one knows.
There was silence in the cold palace. Huo Jingcheng knelt beside Jiang Guiren's corpse and gritted his teeth and wept, and Huo Jingyao knelt beside Xu Guiren's corpse and wept bitterly.
Emperor Qiandi looked left and right, the green tendons on his forehead jumped, and he was full of sadness and helplessness. Ever since he read Lian Xiang's letter, he knew that there was a grudge between the two women, but he never thought that Xu Guiren hated Jiang to the point of eating meat and drinking blood. Is there another side behind this?
At this time, Huo Jingcheng said in a fierce mood: "Xu Guiren has not come out for twenty years, and now he has come to the cold palace to kill his mother, and I hope that my father will investigate this matter deeply!" ”
When Huo Jingyao heard this, he also said stiffly: "What is there to check?" The grievances of the previous generation have been settled by themselves, even if my mother is killed and abolished, she has already died, and the sixth brother does not forgive who else wants to pull out who will eat the crime? ”
Huo Jingcheng looked at him sideways and gritted his teeth: "Huo Jingyao!" Shut up! The initiator has no aftermath! What good things you have done with Huo Jingxiao, this palace knows it! If it weren't for you, neither you nor my mother would have died! Naturally, you have caused the trouble of wanting the ship to pass without a trace! ”
Huo Jingyao stood up suddenly, and shouted with red eyes: "The trouble we caused? This scourge was planted many years ago! Now it's borne fruit! Sixth brother! You were born noble, as the concubine of the main palace, you are only shrouded in the sun, how can you ever be clothed in darkness? You never know who owes whom, and who's sorry for whom! ”
Huo Jingcheng also stood up and asked angrily, "What do you mean?" Say!! ”
Huo Jingyao's words were clear, and he landed soundly: "I mean, plant the cause first, and then get the effect!" Now that you have only seen the fruits of the waste, how can you ever know the cause of what she planted in the first place? ”
"Shut up!!" Emperor Qian scolded angrily, seeing that his two sons were tense, and the flames were burning more and more.
The two were reprimanded, and then they each stopped.
Emperor Qian's tone was tired, and he sighed: "Don't fight, the grievances of the previous generation will stop at the previous generation, don't continue to the next generation." Jingcheng, Lao Jiu, you are brothers, and this will not change because of anything. ”
After that, Emperor Qian lowered his head and looked at the two pieces of white cloth left and right, and said: "The abolished queen was already a concubine before his death, but for the filial piety of the whole prince and the face of the prince, Gu Prince's face, he was registered as the concubine and buried in the concubine's mausoleum." As for Xu Guiren, it is difficult to evaluate his merits, but he thought that he gave birth to a son, so his name was not changed and he was buried in the concubine's mausoleum. ”
"Let the Ministry of Rites take care of the matter. Scattered, scattered. Emperor Qian muttered and left alone.
Although Jiang was only a concubine in the end, he got the word "Yuan" as the nickname, and the word Yuan, for the concubines, is the most beautiful, which is the original and the beginning, and the metaphor of the original wife. She is the biological mother of the prince, and even Emperor Qian looked at Huo Jingcheng's face after passing and gave Jiang family dignity and mourning, and the Ministry of Rites treated the matter solemnly, and mourned in the palace for two days, and finally buried in the concubine's mausoleum. Huo Jingcheng was grieved and invited himself to go to the imperial tomb to guard the tomb for a month to fulfill his filial piety. Emperor Qian agreed, so on the day of the concubine's entry into the mausoleum, Huo Jingcheng personally sent his mother to the mausoleum, and followed the team to the imperial mausoleum in the western suburbs.
And it is also a blessing in misfortune that Xu Guiren can keep his name and be buried in the concubine's mausoleum. Emperor Qiandi may have seen Huo Jingyao's face, or perhaps, after twenty years, the moment he saw her full of white hair, he felt a little guilty in his heart. After all, what kind of years can make a woman in her early forties full of gray hair? The sorrow behind it is self-evident.
The royal event could not be concealed at all, and this tragedy was not only recorded in the history of Yongxi for 23 years, but also talked about it in Beijing for a while, and everyone sighed and smacked their tongues.
Next, just when everyone thought that the relationship between His Royal Highness the Prince, Princess Roufu, King You, and even King Yu Cheng would inevitably continue to deteriorate, who knew that Huo Jingrou and the two kings of "Xiaoyao", these three people actually got together calmly.
In the banquet hall of the princess's mansion, the three tables of vegetarian banquets have been filled. The three of them sat at each table, and the atmosphere was relaxed.
Huo Jingrou is still filial piety, and she also knows that Huo Jingyao is the same, so the banquet is full of vegetarian dishes, but the wine is still prepared. Huo Jingrou raised her wine glass and said with a sad expression: "Starling, ninth brother, sixth brother has gone to the imperial tomb, I feel uncomfortable but have nowhere to say, so I have to invite the two of you to come to the mansion to get together, after all, I and the ninth brother are the same fallen people at the end of the world, and the starling's mother, the lady lady, has already passed away, the starling brother should be the best able to understand our feelings, so today the three of us sisters put aside the grievances of the previous generation, and hold the wine here, and share the weal and beyond." ”
Huo Jingyao's expression was also depressed, compared to the life of the past, at this time he was like a change of soul, sitting there and saying nothing, it was unprecedented and calm.
Huo Jingxiao also put away his usual evil smile and comforted: "Sister Rou, Jingyao, I hope you two will mourn." As for the sixth brother, if he can leave government affairs and go to the imperial tomb to guard the mausoleum, it can be seen that the grief and when the sixth brother returns, let's get together again. ”
"That's what Starling said. Come, please. Huo Jingrou raised a glass to invite, and the two catered to each other and drank a glass together.
Huo Jingrou put down the wine glass and asked, "Starling brother, ninth brother, this pear wine is made by me personally, I don't know how the wine tastes?" ”
Huo Jingyao said: "This wine ......"
"This wine is not wine at all!" Huo Jingxiao suddenly interrupted Huo Jingyao's words and added, "Is Sister Rou teasing us?" It's not pear wine at all, it's just plain water. ”
