Palace

"Guifei Niangniang, this is the new tribute pill from the Holy Temple, please take it." The chief eunuch brought a small box with black pills on it.

Xiao Guifei frowned slightly, she had always hated this smell of medicine, and Princess Lanling was like that back then. Soaking in a medicine jar all day long, the smell of herbs on my body can be smelled from the street.

She picked up the pill between her two fingers, stared at it for a long time, and then quickly swallowed it.

Xiao Guifei seemed to be choked on the pills, and Mama hurriedly brought her a bowl of water.

"Slow down." Mama smoothed her down, "Niangniang, the queen has been saying that she wants to come to see you." ”

"Nope!" Concubine Xiao said impatiently, "The queen has no heirs for many years, and when she sees that the palace is pregnant with a prince again, she doesn't know what jealousy has become." ”

"The queen won't do anything on her face, just rest assured." Mama persuaded the concubine, "The New Year is approaching, Niangniang always shirks the queen, and outsiders don't know that they think that Niangniang has a grudge and refuses to see the queen." The queen fell into a good reputation for no reason. ”

Concubine Xiao raised her forehead, "This palace just can't get used to the queen's fake appearance." ”

Mama ordered someone to add charcoal and continued: "Niang Niang knows that she has no queen, what do you have to do with her? When Niangniang's heir wins the throne, she is just a paper tiger, and there is nothing to be afraid of. ”

"That being said, this palace always feels that the queen is holding back her bad heart." Xiao Guifei has always been less concerned about others when she speaks, "When Yan'er was named a general, the queen didn't go to the palace to rush to the palace. Bengong can see it clearly, she just can't see others better than her! ”

The more Xiao Guifei spoke, the more excited she became, and her face turned red as she held her stomach.

"Mother, be careful that the wall has ears." Mama said.

"This palace is still afraid that they won't succeed? A group of minions who see the wind and steer the rudder. The concubine scolded bitterly.

Seeing that the concubine was drowsy, Mama waved her hand to hold back the slave who played the pipa, lowered her head and pondered for a moment, sighed slightly and did not mention it again.

Lu Xihe was still a step too late.

Even though she didn't stop for a moment, it was still difficult to change the result.

That is enough to make the Xiao family collapse and change the current situation.

"My lord, today's pill was sent to the palace in the future, and the ladies must have already taken it." So said the people of the temple.

Lu Xihe's heart seemed to have been hit hard, and she felt that she could not breathe.

The calculation of the human heart, the dispute between the former dynasty and the harem, has to be paid by an unborn child.

She walked out of the temple in a daze, the setting sun swaying in the west, the guards changing sentry posts, and the vendors slowly cleaning up their stalls and preparing to return home.

"Everything in the world has cause and effect, and those who harm others will eventually be harmed, maybe this is her fate." Ning Yi comforted.

Lu Xihe was silent for a moment, "No matter what she has done, her child is innocent." ”

Ning Yi sent someone to lead the horse over, and when she saw that her hair was a little disheveled, she raised her hand to sort it out for her.

"I told you a long time ago not to be a female officer. The human heart you see is far more terrible than in the house. He paused, "But you don't listen, you have to see it with your own eyes before you believe it." ”

Don't hit the south wall, don't look back, don't cry when you don't see the coffin.

Persistence is a good thing. But being too persistent will hurt a person.

"Before I knew them, I thought I was one of the few wicked people in the world." Lu Xihe engraved the name Ziyangjun fiercely in her heart, she longed to break his bones, cut off his flesh piece by piece, and throw it into the wilderness, where the beast could eat it.

"I understand your feelings, you must hate Ziyangjun very much, and you can't wait to divide his five horses, and I will do the same. But Ruan Ruan, the more he hates a person, the more he must remain calm and reasonable. If you can't calm down, it's giving your enemies another chance to take you down. ”

Lu Xihe nodded, turned over and got on the horse without a sound, "There is still something to do, the lower official will go first." ”

"Go ahead." As soon as Ning Yi's words fell, she had already walked away neatly.

He stood in front of the magnificent gates of the temple, immersed in the shadow of the setting sun.

"Ruan Ruan, do you know that there is no pure land in the world. The world you are looking for is nothing but a dream of yellow sorghum. He thought silently in his heart, "But as long as you want, I am willing to go to the soup and go to the fire to seek it." Even if I go up the sword mountain and down the sea of fire, I will not back down. ”

The thin back is getting farther and farther away, and there is only boundless loneliness in response to him.

"Oh no! Oh no! The mother has a miscarriage! Come on, it's not good! A panicked voice broke the silence of the palace at dusk, and the palace of the concubine immediately became agitated.

The palace maids came in with water basins and other things, and the people in the house did not dare to come out.

The concubine lay on the bed, her face was pale, her head was sweating, and she cried weakly: "Child, my child..."

The sweat on the forehead of the imperial doctor dripped down, and when he saw the bright red on the bed, he knew that the concubine was not safe.

"Mother, I can't keep it."

The concubine's eyes widened suddenly, and two lines of tears flowed from her coquettish eyes, "Bao, I can't keep this palace and kill you to accompany the funeral!" ”

No one dared to respond.

"It must be the queen, it's her! Hongu promised to see her today, and something like this happened! She had premeditated..."

The king of Chu came in a hurry, but was stopped by the palace maid in charge.

"How's it going?" He asked.

The palace maid in charge said in a low voice: "The concubine has a miscarriage." ”

"How can a good person have a miscarriage?"

The palace maid said: "A queen mother has been here today, who knows that half an hour after the queen mother left, the mother began to have abdominal pain. ”

King Chu's face became more and more ugly.

The emperor has been looking forward to the fetus in the concubine's womb for many days, and the concubine is also counting on this child to bring her another honor.

Now, dreams are shattered and people wake up.

"Lord Wang, you can't go in! Rajah! The palace maid couldn't stop the king of Chu, so he broke into the house.

The overflowing smell of blood announced the end of a life.

The concubine cried bitterly: "This palace is going to kill you!" Kill you to bury the prince of this palace... Your Majesty, why hasn't the Emperor come yet..."

It was already the time to hold the lamp, and the solemn palace added a sense of desolation.

The emperor's tall back is reflected on the endless bluestone slab, he is the Son of Heaven, the emperor who shakes the light.

But he couldn't save his child, he couldn't bring him back to life.

He came to the concubine's room, heard the concubine's cry, and the palace maids went in and out with a basin full of blood.

That child, after all, still failed to come into this world.

"Your Majesty! The emperor saves the children of his concubines! "The concubine grabbed a life-saving straw, and her hands trembled.

The emperor asked, "Why did the concubine have a miscarriage?" ”

The room full of people fell to their knees.

"I'm asking you."

The palace maid and the grandmother buried their heads deeply, and the palace maid said: "Back to the emperor, the queen came at noon today, and sent a bracelet to the mother, saying that it was begged from the temple to keep the mother safe." The mother was overjoyed and accepted it. Who knew that at dusk, the mother began to have abdominal pain..."

The Emperor asked Mama, "Is that really the case?" ”

Before Mama could speak, Concubine Xiao struggled to get up, "Your Majesty, this matter is clearly the queen's mother harming the concubine, the emperor, you must be the master of the concubine, he is not only the concubine's child, but also your child." ”

Mama's head lowered, "The old slave doesn't dare to say anything." ”

"The Queen Mother has arrived!"

A sick woman walked in, dressed in plain palace clothes, smelling the heavy smell of blood, and her brows furrowed almost inaudibly.

"See the Emperor." She saluted.

"Do you know what happened today?" The emperor's expression was serious, and the empress seemed to be taken aback and hurriedly knelt down.

"Your Majesty, the concubine also just heard that Sister Xiao had a miscarriage, it was the concubine's poor care, and the concubine's dereliction of duty, please ask the emperor to punish the concubine!" The queen's eyes were hazy, as if there were tears overflowing.

"Sister, why do you want to hurt me..."Xiao Guifei didn't finish speaking, and she fainted from crying.

The queen's thin body trembled, and there were tears in her eyes, "Concubine, concubine has never harmed her sister, your majesty, concubine has never wanted to harm people." ”

The high emperor did not answer her words, and his heart turned a thousand times.

How to deal with it, how to take the opportunity to remove the thorn in the eye, this is a sloppy thing.

However, what has just passed away is his flesh and blood after all.

"Report!" A little eunuch walked in with his head bowed and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Lu of the Criminal Department sent someone to send an urgent letter. ”

The chief eunuch saw the opportunity and said, "Why don't you submit it soon?" ”

The emperor opened the letter and was looking at it, when suddenly Long Yan was furious and overturned the small table with one hand.

"Reversed them!"

The King of Chu stood aside, his gaze sweeping over the letter sent by Lu Xihe.

Seeing the puzzled look of the King of Chu, the emperor threw the letter to him, "Look at how my people repay me." ”

The king of Chu opened the letter and read it carefully.

It turns out that today's events were premeditated. They mixed poisons that even the imperial physicians could not identify into the pills of the temple and poisoned the people in the palace.

"I want to investigate this matter to the end. I want to see who dares to be so presumptuous! ”

King Chu closed the letter, "How did Lord Lu know about it?" ”

The emperor's expression was slightly cold, "I underestimated her." ”

The king of Chu only knew that it was wrong when he said it, the emperor was already a suspicious person, and the meaning of his words was that he doubted her.

He tried to defend her, but he couldn't say a word.

Lying unconscious in bed today is his mother.

It was his relatives who turned into blood.

What if he believed her? Isn't the previous lesson enough?

Her appearance was just to use herself to bring the Lu family back to the capital.

Now that her purpose has been achieved, she has no use value.

People who have no value deserve to be kicked away.

He didn't say a word for her after all, not even a word.

Land House

Lu Xihe faintly felt that something was about to happen, so he simply waited in the yard.

The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, stopping at the gate.

Yu Shengwan knocked on the door, and when Luluo saw that it was her, she hurriedly opened the door.

"My lord, something is wrong." Yu Shengwan said hurriedly.

"Is it a matter of the palace?" Lu Xihe asked knowingly.

"My lord, the concubine in the palace has slipped the fetus, but I am afraid that it will not be able to get rid of the pill of the holy temple." Yu Shengwan worried, "It has nothing to do with us, but the case of Chunxitang has been handed over to us." We didn't catch the murderer, which gave him the opportunity to make waves everywhere and harm the concubine Niangniang and the unborn little prince. My lord, if you think like this, we must take countermeasures. ”

"What countermeasures? If they really think so, we can't do anything about it, even if we have three heads and six arms. Lu Xihe said, "People only believe in what they want to believe, and it has always been like this." ”
