Chapter 42 The Emperor Personally Gives the Abortion Medicine
In the cold season, the sky is full of clouds, dark and unclear. The flowers are still flying, and there is ice and snow everywhere.
On the long street, when the cold wind was howling, I saw a short figure wrapped in plain clothes, with long hair spread out, walking with difficulty in the snow.
Every ten steps she would stop and kneel in the snow, bow down and stand up before walking.
The cold wind wantonly tore at her slightly gray hair, destroying her thinly clothed body. And she resolutely stepped forward, her old face flushed with determination and determination.
She was followed by two maids and two male attendants, carrying bamboo baskets wrapped in cloth on their shoulders, and from time to time took out food, gold and silver, and distributed them to the onlookers on the road.
"Oh my God, open your eyes, and bless my pearl! She's not pregnant with a calamity, she's pregnant with the emperor's child, the emperor, ask the emperor for mercyβ"
This person is the wife of Min Guogong and Gu Yunyao's biological mother.
That day, when he heard that his daughter was pregnant, Min Xing's family was overjoyed, and regardless of the painful experience of being abused by her in public, he clamored to go into the palace to meet his daughter.
Min Rui was also happy, and promised to take his wife to the palace banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve, but he didn't expect that a beautiful dream would turn into a disaster in the blink of an eye.
Hearing that her daughter had an accident in the palace and was accused of being pregnant with a demon fetus, Mrs. Min couldn't sleep all night and mourned all day long.
In the end, she could no longer stay in the palace with peace of mind, so she took advantage of the heavy snow to take off her robe and hairpin, and led her subordinates to march out on the streets, from the palace to the palace outside the noon gate, kneeling three times and bowing nine times along the way, one wall to pray to the heavens, and the other wall to distribute goods and goods to the people to do good deeds.
Min Guogong couldn't agree with his wife's extreme practices, but he knew that his daughter was obviously calculated by a traitor, and she was also rubbing fire in her heart, so she simply let her wife make trouble.
Some things are solved by women, and they may be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
In this way, on the first day, Mrs. Min led the people to the noon gate, but was stopped outside by the forbidden army. Min Xingshi knelt under the city wall for two hours before staggering away.
Early the next morning, Min Xingfu knelt outside the noon gate all morning, shouting "wronged." β
It wasn't until she knelt down again on the third day that some people who had lost their families in the plague threw eggs and stones at her, and cursed Concubine Yu and the child she was pregnant with.
However, Min Xing did not flinch, nor did he argue with those people, and then knelt under the imperial city for a whole day, until he fainted from physical exhaustion, and was carried back to the palace.
After learning of Mrs. Min's behavior, the emperor was moved for a while, and he was shaken by the statement that Concubine Yu was pregnant with a demon fetus.
β¦β¦
Yongning Palace, the night is quiet, and the candle shadow is red.
Wan Yuyao sat in front of the makeup mirror, the brocade clothes were faded, and the green silk was scattered. On his side, Lihu rubbed the gold hairpins with silk and carefully stacked them into the lacquer plate.
"Got something for him?"
Suddenly, the master asked, Lihu hurriedly put down his things, folded his hands and lowered his eyebrows, and said in a low voice:
"Back to the master, give it to him, and you can use it for the Lord of Long Live tonight."
"Hmm......" Wan Yuyao's lips moved slightly, cold and arrogant, and her bright eyes stared at herself on the opposite side of the rhombic glass:
"Just a little bit, the emperor will sleep peacefully tonight...... Hmph, this matter has to be kept secret, and Xiao Jiangzi must know that if he doesn't do it, he and his family will die. β
"Yes," Lihu raised his head lightly and sneered: "Niangniang is at ease, the slave and maid will not disgrace their mission." β
β¦β¦
In the Qinming Palace, Emperor Jingxiao was lying on the dragon bed on his back, drowsy.
A faint noisy sound came into the embroidered dragon tent, and the emperor was disturbed, twisted his brows and turned over to get out of bed.
Calling Gonggong Hu, no one answered, the emperor's chest was on fire, and he quickly pushed the door, and then was blinded by a white light.
The emperor involuntarily closed his eyes sideways, and after a moment of adaptation, he opened them again, and suddenly found that he was outside the palace.
The field of vision is wide in front of you, there is no one around, and there are only six or seven young children wearing flower jackets and pants on the straight and far-reaching official road, holding hands in a circle, humming and singing songs as they turn:
"The wind and snow are vast for one day, and the poor capital is full of plagues. The West bewildered the East Court, and did not believe that oolong was a misfortune. β
"Boldβ"
Emperor Jingxiao was furious, and he rushed forward with a roar. But in a blink of an eye, those children disappeared, and the dead bodies were strewn across the official road, and white bones were piled up everywhere.
The emperor exclaimed, but when he raised his eyes, he saw that the sky was stained with blood, but the nursery rhyme kept sounding, hovering and echoing in the air.
Emperor Jingxiao fell to the ground in despair, covered his ears and shook his head in pain:
"No, noβ"
Standing up, Emperor Jingxiao roared and woke up from his nightmare, his forehead covered in sweat. The smooth yellow silk bedgown clings to the cold skin, and it feels very uncomfortable.
"Your Majesty...... What's wrong with you, Your Majesty? β
Gonggong Hu pushed the door in, stopped in front of the dragon bed, and looked at the weak and limp black shadow on the curtain with trepidation. In the middle of the night, the emperor's dull and tired voice came from inside:
"Pray for the Messenger of the Chuan Tai Hospital."
At the same time, by the lotus pond, Zhao An arrived at the agreed place with a palace lantern in his hand, and saw the man in the python robe and high hat as promised.
"Lord Leng Overseer."
Zhao An bowed, his face humble, with a hint of caution.
Leng Qingtang turned around to face Zhao An, and there was not much expression on Jun's face:
"The Governor wants you to do something......"
ββ
Early in the morning, Gu Yunxi saw South China Ji Yan rushing into Chuxiu Palace with King Chen, and Lu Qiange was with him behind him, his complexion was blazing.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Yunxi grabbed the princess and asked, and her whole heart was raised.
"I want to see Xu Niangniang, my father is going to attack Concubine Yu!"
South China Ji Yan's expression looked even more anxious than Gu Yunxi:
"Tu Duxue, why don't you go and pass it on to the master!"
There was a "boom" on Gu Yunxi's head, and the world was spinning a little, and his face was pale:
"How could it be...... That's the emperor's own flesh and blood! Didn't it be rumored the day before yesterday that he would no longer pursue the matter, how could he ......"
King Chen blinked, with an innocent expression:
"I've heard them all say that my father has a nightmare, and he doesn't like my yet-yet-born little brother anymore...... Oh, I want my brother to play with me, I don't want my brother to die......"
Gu Yunxi pondered for a while, then turned around and walked through the door. Seeing this, South China Ji Yan stopped her:
"Hey, why are you going!"
"Go find someone to help."
"Tu Duxue, you shouldn't expect the eunuch from Dongchang to come forward to rescue Concubine Yu, right?"
Lu Qiange's clear purple eyes instantly saw through Gu Yunxi's thoughts, and his arms were folded on his chest, his face full of disdain.
Gu Yunxi glared at him without speaking, turned around and ran out.
ran all the way to the celebrant supervisor, but fortunately Leng Qingtang was here.
When she saw Gu Yunxi breaking in, and her expression was sad and her temples were messy, she knew what she was for.
When the attendants retreated, Gu Yunxi grabbed the sleeve of the overseer and cried:
"Overseer, overseer, save your sister, Sister Yun Yao was framed as soon as she was pregnant with the emperor's child, please go to Xiaoyexuan quickly and stop the emperor."
Gu Yunxi believed in the Overseer from beginning to end, and he said that he came to him when he was not sure about everything. Now that it is a hundred thousand times of emergency, she believes that the only person who can save Gu Yunyao and the fetus in her womb is the Overseer!
After listening to what Gu Yunxi asked, Leng Qingtang smiled lightly and gently, and stretched out his arms to support her shoulders:
"Girl, Yun Yao will be fine."
Gu Yunxi was appeased, his mood stabilized, and he looked at the overseer with teary eyes, and doubted:
"You, what kind of way have you thought of to clear your sister's grievances?"
"Anyway, you believe me." The Overseer's eyes were rippling, as if he was confident.
Gu Yunxi was moved by this, and unconsciously his ears were hot, and he nodded ignorantly.
Leng Qingtang smiled when he saw this, patted her back, and sounded a little anxious in his tone:
"Okay, I still have something to do, you go back to Chuxiu Palace first, and remember my words well."
ββ¦β¦ Take care, then, Overseer. β
Gu Yunxi returned to Chuxiu Palace with a lot of concern, and was passed into the main hall as soon as he entered the door.
Concubine Xu was putting on a cloak, and when she saw her, she slashed her head and covered her face and scolded her:
"Where did you go? Something big happened to Xiao Yexuan, why don't you go with the palace quickly-"
Gu Yunxi didn't dare to slack off, cleaned up, and went straight to Xiaoyexuan with Concubine Xu's guard of honor.
Just now, Ji Yan from South China came to report that the emperor woke up from a dream last night, immediately changed his mind, and summoned the envoy of the Tai Hospital overnight to prescribe an abortion prescription for Concubine Yu.
Just after breakfast, the emperor came to Xiaoyexuan with the decoction medicine, intending to personally give the medicine and kill the fetus in Gu Yunyao's womb.
Just when South China Ji Yan ran out of Kunning Palace, Empress Qian also drove Xiao Yexuan, trying to prevent the emperor from making a big mistake.
Concubine Xu's sedan chair was almost trotting to Xiao Yexuan.
As soon as I arrived outside the gate, I saw a team of magnificent ceremonial guards, and the bright yellow imperial chariot with five dragon embroidered curtains was placed in the most conspicuous place, showing that the owner of the honor guard was extraordinary.
Concubine Xu was frightened, it was indeed the emperor who arrived first.
Gu Yunxi's heart tightened, was it still timely to come to Xiaoyexuan at this time?
When a waiter saw Concubine Xu at the gate, he bowed down and bowed first, and immediately shook the dust to prevent the people of Chuxiu Palace from entering.
Concubine Xu's expression was very entangled, and she didn't make a sound, her eyes widened as if she had experienced an unprecedentedly fierce ideological struggle, and finally gritted her teeth and said to herself:
"That's it, this palace is also a mother, how can you not know the pain of being pregnant for ten months? For the sake of sisters, this palace is out today. Come on, break into the palace! β
With an order, Gu Yunxi stepped forward and flicked away the interception of the chamberlain, allowing Concubine Xu and her party to enter the palace smoothly.
When I arrived at the corridor of the main hall, I heard Gu Yunyao's miserable voice:
"Your Majesty, you have made up your mind for the Ninth Five-Year Honor, how dare your concubines disobey? It's just that you have to remember this day, it's you...... Kill your emperor with your own hands......"
"What my emperor? Hmph, he is the reincarnation of the demon star, and he is a disaster in the human world before he was born, and I can't tolerate him as the true dragon emperor! Drink this medicine quickly, and you will still be my concubine from now on! β
The emperor's cold words shocked Concubine Xu, and she was about to pick up the curtain when she was stopped by the chief manager Hu Gonggong.
His face was full of nervousness, and he was already sweating profusely under the corridor in the cold season of Sanjiu, and waved his hand to Concubine Xu again and again:
"Niangniang, listen to the old slave's advice, the emperor has made up his mind about this matter, and you can't control it!"
Concubine Xu was righteous and awe-inspiring, pushed him away and rushed in. The main hall was full of kneeling people, the emperor's face was gloomy and iron-blue, and at his feet was the sobbing Queen Qian, Songqin knelt in the corner of the wall and splashed tears, Zhao An was disheveled, and was being held on the ground by two chamberlains with his arms cut upside down, his face was full of grief and resentment, and he saw that the situation was to protect the master, and he had just fought fiercely with others.
Concubine Xu saw Gu Yunyao sitting at the table with a white jade bowl in her hand, her temples were loose, her eyes were wet and red, and she suddenly felt a pain in her eyes, and rushed forward in a few steps to grab the bowl.
When Emperor Jingxiao saw it, he pointed at Concubine Xu and roared:
"I see how dare youβ"
Concubine Xu's body trembled, and she suddenly stopped her steps. With tears in her eyes, she knelt on the ground with a soft knee:
"Your Majesty, there is truth and falsehood in the heavenly statement, don't be gullible, does the emperor want to strangle his own children just for Qin Tianjian alone? This is not the wise thing that a king of a kingdom should do! β
"Presumptuous! Are you referring to me as a faint kingβ"
Emperor Jingxiao was furious, and his round eyes were scarlet, as if blood burst out.
"The concubine doesn't dare!"
Concubine Xu trembled in fright, lowered her eyebrows and pleaded:
"Your Majesty, Concubine Yu has always been weak, and this is the first time she is pregnant, and she is afraid that a forced abortion will be harmful to the mother's body, so please think twice!"
Emperor Jingxiao was angry, how could he listen to these remarks, and only cared about shouting:
"Shut up! Don't I know that I feel sorry for my woman? There are imperial doctors in the palace, and when the demon fetus falls, I will find the best imperial doctor to regulate Concubine Yu's body. I have made up my mind, so I don't need to say more! β
"The Emperor's ......"
Concubine Xu raised her face in shock, and two strings of tears rolled down.
On the side, Gu Yunyao quietly raised the bowl, her smile was shallow and bitter, and her expression seemed to be a relief:
"Queen Mother, Sister Xu, you don't have to say it anymore, the concubine has thanked you for taking care of you outside. The concubine knew that this child should not have come to this world, and everything was providential......"
"Yao'er is obedient, drink the medicine quickly, I will have children with you in the future. Now that you are a concubine, you still need to know everything, and I don't want those people outside to hurt you. β
The emperor stood with a long body, his eyes were warm, and his voice was cold.
Gu Yunyao smiled, looked at the emperor with sparkling eyes, as if looking at a stranger, and then put the bowl to his mouth without saying a word......
"!"
"Sister!"
The scene was dead for a while.
Several pairs of eyes were opened to the limit, and Gu Yunyao looked up in a daze and swallowed the whole bowl of medicinal soup, and then broke the medicine with ten fingers, and laughed at the broken jade all over the ground with tears:
"Haha...... Hahahaha......"
