Chapter 22 The organs are exhausted
Two days later, Wei Qing was really led into the palace by Han Yan and entered the Zhaoyang Palace. I haven't seen each other for two years, and when they suddenly reunited, the sisters and brothers couldn't help but wet their eyes with tears.
"Qing'er..."Wei Zifu was speechless, she hadn't seen her for two years, her younger brother had grown a lot taller, heroic and upright like a proud poplar.
"Sister..."Wei Qing is also uncontrollable, time is like an arrow, since the Hou Mansion has been farewell, her sister has accompanied Jun, and now there is his little nephew.
"Zifu, now you are at ease!" Liu Che walked into the hall with a spring breeze on his face.
"Qing'er, this is Your Majesty!" Wei Zifu wiped away his tears, pulled Wei Qing to kneel down and thanked him, Liu Che laughed and said, "Hurry up!" Today is really auspicious, your sister and brother are reunited, and I also have a happy event, you should get drunk and have fun! ”
Han Yan couldn't help but smile when she heard this, and said, "Your Majesty, but the Dongou Rebellion has been settled?" ”
Liu Che looked bright, and said loudly: "Exactly! I ordered the doctor to help the Jiejie levy and send the Huiji County army to the rescue, but before the Huiji reinforcements arrived, Minyue got the news and led the troops to retreat by himself, which is really God help me! ”
Han Yan leaned over and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty!" ”
Liu Che patted Han Yan on the shoulder and smiled: "Thanks to you by my side, if you hadn't reminded me to use my talisman to mobilize the local army for reinforcements, how could this matter have been done?" ”
Han Yan said humbly: "The enemy retreats without a fight, which is a blessing for Your Majesty!" Han Yan didn't dare to take credit! ”
"Hahaha!" Liu Che smiled, "In the future, I will rely on humerus ministers like you, come, Wei Qing!" After saying that, he waved to Wei Qing, "This is Doctor Han Yan, who is my best friend, and the two of you will be closer in the future." ”
Wei Qing stepped forward and bowed to Han Yan, and said respectfully: "Wei Qing is stupid, please ask Lord Han for more guidance!" ”
"Wei Gongzi is serious!" Seeing this, Han Yan hurriedly returned the salute.
"Hahaha! I'm so happy today! Come, drink with me! Liu Che laughed and pulled the two into the table together, and Wei Zifu smiled lightly as he watched from the side.

It was a scorching summer, and the cicadas chirped during the day, but at night, they disappeared one by one, and no sound could be heard. Within the quiet palace walls, Gongsun Ao walked slowly, the moonlight sprinkled a clear light under his feet, and Gongsun Ao felt more and more lonely and lonely in his shadow.
Shu Yu's words were still echoing in his ears, "Gongsun Guard, Zifu is no longer in the Fang Palace, she is pregnant with His Majesty's dragon descendant, and has been taken to Weiyang Palace by His Majesty..."
What else Shu Yu said, Gongsun Ao couldn't remember, he only knew that he nodded his head and left the Chuan Fang Palace. The moonlight was still soft, and Gongsun Ao's loss was beyond words, so he could only swallow it secretly step by step with his head down.
In all fairness, Wei Zifu was so favored, and he was really happy for her, but for some reason, when he thought of her gentle smile, Gongsun Ao couldn't help but feel sad. He really hated himself, he couldn't protect her well, but he still had delusions about her, so he was entangled all the way, Gongsun Ao didn't know how long he had been walking, and suddenly a familiar voice came from his ears, "Brother Gongsun!" ”
In the sound of surprise, Gongsun Ao raised his eyes and saw that the person standing in front of him was Wei Qing, who he hadn't seen for a long time, and couldn't help shouting with joy: "Brother Wei Qing!" ”
"Brother, I heard my sister say that you are also in the palace, and I was thinking about going to look for you in the next few days, but I didn't expect to meet here." Wei Qing was very happy, his eyes full of surprise.
"Brother Wei, when did you enter the palace?" Wei Qing's sudden appearance swept away Gongsun Ao's depressed mood, and he couldn't help but ask.
"Yesterday, Your Majesty issued an order to let Lord Han Yan and Han lead me into the palace, and now I am on an errand in my sister's Zhaoyang Palace." Wei Qing responded.
"That's great!" Gongsun Ao Lang smiled, "In the future, you and my brothers can get together often!" ”
"yes!" Wei Qing's jaw responded, remembering his melancholy appearance when he met Gongsun Ao just now, Wei Qing couldn't help but say with concern: "Brother Gongsun, I just saw that you are preoccupied, but what are you worried about?" ”
Wei Qing's words couldn't help but cause Gongsun Ao's heartache again, but in the face of Wei Qing's sadness, he couldn't speak, so he quickly smiled and covered it up: "There are some annoying trivialities, but it's okay!" Brother Wei, where are you going? Seeing that Wei Qing's direction was not Zhaoyang Palace, Gongsun Ao couldn't help asking.
Wei Qing said with a smile: "I just came to the palace, and I am not very familiar with the terrain, so I take advantage of the night to walk more." ”
"Then how about letting Gongsun take you to familiarize yourself with the terrain in the palace?" Gongsun Ao asked.
"That's great!" Wei Qing bowed his hand and said with a smile: "Brother, please!" ”

The weather in August is scorchingly hot, and Gillian is frowning and planning a new plan. The last assassination failed, although Liu Che didn't say anything, but he was obviously estranged from her, although Gillian was resentful, but thought that once Wei Zifu was cut off, Liu Che would still obediently return to his side, and all his anger turned into a fighting spirit.
Since the founding of the Han Dynasty by Gaozu Liu Bang, it has been passed to Liu Che for the fifth generation. When Gaozu and Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, were competing for the world, Xiang Yu had set up a Hongmen banquet to invite Liu Bang, wanting to use this banquet to eradicate the fierce enemy in one fell swoop, but Liu Bang escaped during the banquet, which led to the Han Dynasty founded by Xiang Yu Wujiang and Liu Bang.
This period of history makes Gillian not without inspiration, if she also puts on a Hongmen banquet, invites Wei Zifu to Jiaofang Hall in the name of the banquet, and then poisons the wine and food, and waits for Wei Zifu to die violently, no matter how angry Liu Che is, there is no proof of death. In addition, with the Empress Dowager and her mother pressing the formation, no matter how clean and neat your hands and feet are, you shouldn't be able to fall into any tricks.
Thinking of her seamless plan, Gillian's lip line unconsciously turned up.
-----
"Wei Ji, the queen sent Da Changqiu to pass on and invite you to the Jiaofang Palace for a banquet." The new personal palace maid Cai Xi owes a report.
Wei Zifu was sitting under the corridor, and after the last assassin, she was much more vigilant in her heart, and asked, "Did Da Changqiu mention anything to invite?" ”
Cai Xi replied: "Da Changqiu said, the queen has been talking to Wei Ji since she entered the palace, but Wei Ji was frightened some time ago, so the queen specially waited for Wei Ji to calm down for a while before inviting each other to get together. ”
Wei Zifu sighed softly, thoughtfully.
Cai Xi continued: "Da Changqiu is already waiting for Wei Ji to go with him in the front hall, and asked when Wei Ji will move?" ”
Wei Zifu frowned slightly: "Why are you in such a hurry?" ”
Cai Xi said: "The slave maid also felt a little anxious, and then Da Changqiu urged the slave and maid to come to report, saying that the queen was waiting for Wei Ji to have a banquet!" ”
When Wei Zifu heard this, he secretly guessed that he was afraid that the person who came was not good, and asked after a little thought: "Your Majesty is in the palace?" ”
Cai Xi said: "I heard Wei Qing say that His Majesty has just left the palace, and he should go to Shanglin Yuan." ”
"What a coincidence!" Wei Zifu couldn't help but be secretly anxious, as soon as Liu Che left the palace, this Chen Ajiao invited someone to the banquet, and she was so urgent, she was afraid that she had other plans.
"Let Wei Qing...!" As soon as the words came out, Wei Zifu felt that it was inappropriate, everyone in this palace knew that Wei Qing was her younger brother, if he went out of the palace to find Liu Che, and the other party really harbored evil intentions, he was afraid that he would be targeted before he left the palace.
Thinking of this, Wei Zifu said to Cai Xi: "Cai Xi, you quickly let Gui Changhai, the steward of the palace, quickly whip out of the palace to catch up with Your Majesty and inform Your Majesty of this." Then drag it out for a while on the grounds of your abdominal pain, and then go back to the front hall to go back to Da Changqiu, and ask him to wait for a while, and then I can go after I change my clothes. ”
"No!" Cai Xi replied in a deep voice, and retreated.
-----
In the Jiaofang Palace, the silk and bamboo orchestra and the sheng song burst. Wei Zifu has never set foot in the Jiaofang Palace after entering the palace, and there are gold bricks and blue tiles everywhere, carving dragons and painting phoenixes, and there are splendid and gorgeous everywhere, highlighting the dignity of the owner here.
"Wei Ji can appreciate her face and come to the Jiaofang Palace, it is really an honor for this palace!" Gillian greeted her with a smile.
"Concubine Wei Zifu, I have seen the queen, the queen Chitose Jin'an!" Wei Zifu leaned over and saluted.
Gillian smiled: "Wei Ji is pregnant with a dragon descendant, so there is no need to make this big gift, and besides, you and I should be closer to Your Majesty." After that, he glanced at Wan Lu, "Wan Lu, why don't you help Wei Ji to take a seat?" ”
Wan Lu took a step forward to block in front of Cai Xi with understanding: "The old slave is waiting for Wei Ji to eat!"
Wei Zifu smiled slightly, didn't push back, and sat down with Wan Lu.
The sheng drum is melodious, the dishes are exquisite, and after a dance, Gillian picked up the wine bottle, and fulfilled the friendship of the landlord: "Wei Ji, you share the worries for the palace and serve Your Majesty. ”
Wei Zifu smiled lightly and said: "Thank you for the queen's kindness, the son-in-law is pregnant and can't drink alcohol, please allow the son-in-law to return to the queen with tea instead of wine!" After that, he turned around and instructed Cai Xi: "Cai Xi, go and make a pot of tea for me." ”
Seeing this, Gillian put down the wine bottle and said, "What Wei Ji said is extremely true! It's the negligence of this palace, Wanroku! ”
Wan Lu hurriedly responded: "Queen! ”
"Why don't you make a pot of tea for Wei Ji?" Gillian looked at Wan Lu and said meaningfully.
Wan Lu bowed and said, "No! ”
Seeing Wan Lu go down to make tea, Wei Zifu was faintly uneasy in his heart, looking at this situation, he was afraid that he would not be able to drag on for too long, I don't know what happened to Gui Changhai, whether he caught up with Liu Che. While thinking about it, I saw Wan Lu come over with the brewed tea, and Gillian smiled charmingly, "Wei Ji, don't live up to the heart of the palace, please!" ”
Although there is a small cup of tea in front of him, but in the eyes of insiders, it is like a thousand pounds, Wei Zifu is secretly anxious, Gillian is both soft and hard, if he pushes it again, he is afraid that she will not be so good at talking, so he can only slowly pick up the tea cup in desperation.
"Your Majesty has arrived!" At this moment, the voice that Wei Zifu had been thinking about for a long time finally came from outside the hall.
"Why is Your Majesty here?" Gillian was secretly surprised, her eyes glanced at Wei Zifu, only to see her hand holding the teacup and put it down again, Gillian couldn't help but sigh aggravated: "Wei Ji, this palace kindly invited you to come to Jiaofang Hall for a banquet, why don't you even want to drink a cup of tea, but there is still this palace in your eyes?" Seeing Liu Che's sudden arrival, disrupting her overall plan, Gillian couldn't help but press forward step by step.
"What kind of good tea does the queen have here, I don't know?" Liu Che followed the sound and walked into the hall.
"I've seen Your Majesty!" The cadres of Jiaofang Hall and others all bowed down to worship, and Gillian could only salute and say: "The concubine has seen Your Majesty!" ”
"Excuse me!" Liu Che said and approached Wei Zifu and said, "How could the queen be so Yaxing today that she personally feasted Wei Ji?" ”
A smile appeared on Gillian's face and said: "Wei Ji has been in the palace for a long time, and she was assassinated again, and the concubine thinks that since she is in the harem, she naturally wants to be closer." ”
"The queen has a heart!" Liu Che said, "It's just that Wei Ji is pregnant with Liujia, so I think it's better to go back to the palace to rest early!" After that, he pulled up Wei Zifu and said, "Zifu, go with me!" ”
"Wait a minute!" Seeing that Liu Che cherished Wei Zifu so much, Gillian couldn't help but stand up and say to Wei Zifu: "Wei Ji came to my palace for the first time, and she didn't even drink tea, so she didn't take this palace seriously!" ”
Gillian's face was as cold as ice, since she could force Wei Zifu to drink that tea, she naturally planned it in her heart, even if Wei Zifu died violently in the Jiaofang Hall today, who could prove that it was her Chen Ajiao's poison? Besides, it's okay for Liu Che to be in front of him, just let him watch this little slut die in front of him, what a happy thing is this?
Unexpectedly, Liu Che heard the words and said: "Wei Ji's tea, I drank it for her!" After that, he looked at Wan Lu and said, "Bring it!" ”
Wan Lu naturally didn't dare, and looked at Gillian timidly, Gillian smoked angrily, and said hatefully: "Send off!" ”
Liu Che snorted coldly, led Wei Zifu and walked out of the Jiaofang Hall quickly, looking at their departing backs, Gillian was dumbfounded.
-----
After the banquet in Jiaofang Hall that day, Liu Che ordered people to guard it strictly, and took care of Wei Zifu's daily life. Gillian had no chance to take advantage of it for a while, seeing that Wei Zifu's belly was getting bigger day by day, but she had nothing to do, and she couldn't help but be annoyed.
Wan Lu saw that Gillian was impatient, and stepped forward to ask flatteringly, "The queen is worried about Wei Zifu?" ”
Gillian glanced at Wan Lu and said angrily: "Nonsense! If this person is not removed for a day, the palace will not be at peace for a day! ”
Wan Lu's eyes rolled, and he gave birth to a poisonous plan, approached and said, "The old slave has a plan, I don't know if it's feasible." ”
Gillian said coldly: "You say it! ”
Wan Lu whispered in a low voice: "Your Majesty is now strictly guarding Wei Zifu, but Wei Zifu has a younger brother, named Wei Qing, who is currently on an errand in Zhaoyang Palace, and the queen can be like this..."
Gillian nodded again and again when she heard this, and couldn't help but smile: "It's still you old dog who is clever, this palace is going to do this for you, you go to my mother's mansion immediately, and ask her to find a few capable warriors for me." ”
Wan Lu sneered: "No! ”
