Volume 1 The End of the Dynasty Chapter 63 Harem Disputes, Clan Occupation
Queen Sun walked out of Huan Sheng's study, happened to meet the Empress Dowager Jing, stepped forward and bowed slightly, the two looked at each other, did not speak, and Sun left in a hurry. Empress Dowager Jing didn't stop her and ask anything. The eunuch trotted in and said to Huan Sheng, "The Queen Mother is here." ”
Huan Sheng got up and went out to greet him, "Erchen greets the queen mother." Why did the queen mother come over today? ”
The Empress Dowager Jing sat down and said, "I see why the queen left in a hurry, there are still tears on her eyes, and you are bullying her again?" ”
"How could her son bully her? She came to tell her son, Empress Dowager Qi, who often scolded her and asked me to call the shots for her. Has the queen mother ever heard of this? Huan Sheng brought the teacup and handed it to the Empress Dowager.
Empress Dowager Jing seemed a little helpless, "I have heard a little about this matter, but I think that the affairs of the harem are still taken care of by the Empress Dowager Qi, and you are always busy with political affairs, so I didn't tell you." The queen should have come to you...... Alas, that's it, don't talk about it, the harem is a place of right and wrong, and what I say will inevitably fall into my mouth, and let people say that I can't tolerate their mother and son. But you, it's better to plan early, after all, the harem is your harem, they are all female dependents, and there is a man living there, which will inevitably make people feel awkward. ”
"Yes, Queen Mother, the son-in-law has already asked the consul and eunuch to pass on the will."
"Okay, then I won't disturb you in dealing with political affairs, I think you have a lot of affairs now." After saying that, the Empress Dowager Jing got up and left.
Passing through the long blue brick corridor, it was the Anhe Palace where the Empress Dowager Qi had been living, and I only heard the sound of falling things from the palace. Empress Dowager Jing sneered, walked to the door, and a delicate porcelain vase flew out, rubbing Empress Dowager Jing's cheek and falling heavily to the ground, suddenly becoming sparse, frightening Empress Dowager Jing's face.
Empress Dowager Jing slowed down a little and walked in, only to see that the courtyard was kneeling full of maids and eunuchs, the ground was full of broken debris of broken things, and two maids had red slap marks on their faces, their delicate cheeks were swollen, and their eyes were full of tears.
"What's going on, sister? Could it be that someone else has made you angry? All you have to do is learn the lesson, so why drop things? Empress Dowager Jing picked up a hosta broken into two knots from the ground, "Oh, this is the white hosta that the emperor rewarded you, how could you be so careless." When the emperor favored you and rewarded you, my sisters didn't give it to the emperor. It's a shame that it's broken. ”
When the Empress Dowager Qi heard the voice, she rushed out, and was about to grab the Empress Dowager Jing, but the maid who followed the Empress Dowager Jing hurriedly stepped forward to hold her.
Empress Dowager Qi fluttered and scolded: "You slut, together with that little slut, you will harm our mother and son, send me to Yunxiang Palace, and my son will be sent out of the palace!" ”
Empress Dowager Jing was stunned when she heard this, she didn't expect the emperor to deal with it like this, her heart suddenly felt comfortable, and she slowly spoke: "Sister, don't talk nonsense, you and I have a deep sisterhood, how can I harm you?" ”
"You, and you say you didn't hurt it, do you think I don't know? The consul and father-in-law beside the emperor are my people, and he told me everything! ”
Empress Dowager Jing laughed after hearing this, "Sister, you said yes, that's it." By the way, the consular eunuch is still here. Come on, pull him out. ”
Two eunuchs walked out behind the Empress Dowager Jing and pulled out the consul eunuch who was kneeling aside. Empress Dowager Jing walked up, "It turns out that you are her person, no wonder she knows what the emperor does, how can I, as the emperor's mother, tolerate a ghost by his side?" Pull it down, break your limbs, cut off your tongue, and throw it into the latrine. ”
The two were about to pull the eunuch out, when the Empress Dowager Qi shouted: "You femme fatale-hearted woman, you will definitely not die well!" ”
After hearing this, the Empress Dowager Jing asked them to pull the eunuch who was already paralyzed over, "Let's do it directly here, let my sister take a good look." In addition, I will tell you that if someone reports to my sister in the future, this will also be the end. ”
Empress Dowager Jing walked to Empress Dowager Qi's side, "You have to look at it carefully, don't blink, if you blink once, I will concoct the rest of your courtyard according to the law." ”
The screams resounded throughout the Anhe Palace, and the kneeling people in the courtyard trembled. After a while, the screams gradually subsided, and finally only the sound of weak wails remained, and finally the sound was completely gone. I saw that the tortured eunuch was covered in blood, his mouth was still bleeding, his body was convulsed, and he slowly stopped.
"Mother, it's dead." One of the eunuchs who carried out the execution came over and said.
"If you die, throw the body in the back mountain." Empress Dowager Jing lightly covered her nose with the silk silk in her hand, frowned and said, and then looked at Empress Dowager Qi, "My sister is really hard, I didn't blink my eyes, but it was a lot less fun, it's just that my sister should follow the emperor's arrangement to live in Yunxiang Palace as soon as possible, and my sister's son should also go out of the palace as soon as possible, it is inevitable that there will be some mistakes in this harem, and I will inevitably make my sister angry again." My sister took her leave first. ”
Empress Dowager Jing left, and Empress Dowager Qi sat down on the ground, looking at the bloodstains left in the courtyard, her eyes were dilated, and her face was completely bloodless. The maids and eunuchs kneeling in the courtyard did not dare to come forward to help, so they kept kneeling.
After a long time, Empress Dowager Qi suddenly stood up and staggered out in the direction of Yunxiang Palace.
Since the Empress Dowager Daqi came to Yunxiang Palace, she slammed the door shut. On the second day, Huan Ling was pushed to say goodbye to his mother, and after entering the house, the Empress Dowager Qi asked someone to bring a cup of tea, and the door of the house was closed.
Two hours passed, and the guards who sent Huan Ling out of the palace were a little impatient, and came forward to knock on the door, but no one answered, and the guards had no choice but to stand in the courtyard and wait. From time to time, a palace maid brought a meal, gently pushed open the door, and the scene inside shocked everyone.
I saw Huan Ling's head tilted, still sitting on the four-wheeled vehicle, his eyes closed, and his lips black. The guard hurriedly stepped forward and sniffed, but he had already died of anger. Everyone looked at the back of the hall, and the Empress Dowager Qi committed suicide with the silk scarf on her body. Everyone hurriedly put her down. I saw a roll of cloth on the ground, which read: Death is unwilling, and the soul always lives here.
Everyone had palpitations, and hurriedly ran to tell the Empress Dowager Jing, who scolded and hurried to Yunxiang Palace. I saw that everything in Yunxiang Palace had been almost dealt with, only the courtyard was covered with two corpses with white cloths.
Empress Dowager Jing stepped into the courtyard gate, saw this situation, and looked at the cloth handed over to her by the guards, pointed at the Empress Dowager Qi and scolded: "You seek death yourself, and you have to harm others, people like you who disturb the harem, and still want to enter the mausoleum of the emperor, don't even think about it, I will ask someone to chop up your body and your son together and feed it to the dogs!" ”
"What did the Queen Mother say this?" Empress Dowager Jing hurriedly turned around, it turned out that Huan Sheng had already walked into the gate of Yunxiang Palace and stood behind her.
"The person has already died, so let's bury it well, and bury it next to my father's mausoleum."
"Your Majesty ......" "Okay, that's it." Help me find out where the poison came from in the harem. Huan Sheng was about to go out after speaking, "By the way, Queen Mother, the rest of the affairs of the harem will be handed over to you, I am very tired." ”
Huan Sheng went out and left, Empress Dowager Jing couldn't believe it, this was the first time he didn't listen to his own words, could it really be that he did something wrong? Isn't it all about solving his worries? Jing Empress Dowager's heart was a little sad.
The bodies of Empress Dowager Qi and Huan Ling were carried out, and Yunxiang Palace was completely closed by Huan Sheng's order.
Besides, Su Ang and Qi Sheng hurriedly entered the territory of Tianzhou from Zizhou. On this day, passing through a small market, the two planned to go to a teahouse to rest, and by the way, let people feed the horses.
The two walked into the teahouse, chose a window seat and sat down, and Xiao Er brought them tea.
Su Ang drank a cup of tea and said, "I will be able to reach the Imperial City in five days, what are the plans of the sir?" I don't know if Mr. is going to go to the Imperial City with me or ......"
"Me? I was instructed by your teacher to go to the Imperial City to help you solve some affairs, and after you settle down, I want to go to find the immortals. Qi Sheng looked at the mountains in the distance, as if he was a little yearning.
"Isn't my teacher just a 'fairy', where else is my husband going to find immortals?"
Qi Sheng retracted his gaze, pouted and said, "If your teacher is called 'an immortal', he is still a mortal, that is, a mortal, then he will be born, old, sick and die." The immortal I want to seek is an immortal who is detached from the world and is happy and happy, practicing the elixir and commenting on books every day, isn't it comfortable? ”
Su Ang smiled: "Is there really such an immortal in this world?" Isn't it someone who made it up at random to deceive people, and besides, who has really seen an immortal? ”
"If you haven't seen it, it doesn't mean that you don't have it, there are no wonders in the world, how many journeys have we only walked."
While the two were talking, there was a commotion in the street, and I saw a young man dressed as a son of a family walking down the street with a group of domestic servants, whose eyes were sunken, the bridge of his nose was deeply sunken, and his lips were thick. He wore a luxurious silk gown and held a gorgeous folding fan made of silk, on which were painted two half-naked ladies.
Su Ang didn't have a good impression of this kind of family boy at all, and after taking a look, he retracted his gaze, "People like this can also be clothed and fed, it's really ......" Su Ang shook his head.
"Hey, this kind of person can be domineering, but he is well-dressed, even court officials dare not do this." Qi Sheng sipped his tea.
Suddenly, someone on the street shouted: "Dead man, dead man!" ”
The two hurriedly turned their heads to look outside, only to see a white-haired old man lying on the street, blood gushing out from the corner of his mouth, and the young man with a folding fan in his hand spat at the old man, "I don't know what to do, you were originally a servant of my family, and later gave you a little land, and you still want to kick your nose in the face." Now that your backer Uncle Yang is dead, your family's field has not been handed over obediently, I really don't know whether to live or die. ”
Su Ang glanced at Qi Sheng, Qi Sheng shook his head, "It's too late, the government doesn't handle it properly, so the matter of re-occupying the land will become more and more serious, and it may even be more serious than before." ”
Su Ang didn't respond, raised his feet and walked out of the teahouse, came to the old man's side, touched his nose, and turned out to be gone, the old man's eyes were wide open, as if he was unwilling. Su Ang got up, Qi Sheng walked over and patted Su Ang on the shoulder, "Let's go, let's go to the Imperial City as soon as possible, you saw it, so you have to seize all the opportunities." ”
