Staring a little? Isn't this just deliberately taking Zhao Rongxian away?

From the outside of the city to the palace, it will take a while, if the emperor is fast, I am afraid that when Zhao Rongxian comes back, I will already die.

But if I refuse to enter the palace now, it will be disrespectful.

The emperor can also ask for guilt!

I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down, "Second Emperor Sister, please help me go outside the city and tell the prince, the people of our Four Princes' Mansion, or the people around me, I'm afraid they won't be able to get out of the city." ”

Hearing this, the second princess was also a little anxious, and she worried, "Fourth brother and sister, is it feasible for you to enter the palace alone?" ”

"If I don't enter the palace, I will inevitably be blamed by my father, if you enter the palace with me, you will not be able to speak in front of your father in the future, and it will be even more difficult to save my life." I'm not talking nonsense, if the second princess enters the palace with me at this moment, she won't get any benefits.

Hearing my words, the second princess became even more worried, "But if you enter the palace alone, I'm afraid that it will be...... I'm afraid that there will be no return. ”

"Second Imperial Sister, I have always had a good relationship with you, if you go to help, my father will definitely scold you together." I thought about it, lowered my voice and said, "I bother the second imperial sister to send someone to Wei Guifei's palace, just say that I have a way to prevent the third princess from being in harmony, as long as she saves my life today, I will definitely protect the third princess to stay in the Northern Dynasty." ”

When the second princess heard this, she immediately turned around and left.

I immediately instructed Mama Chen, "Mama Chen, you go and tell Gonggong Li that we will pack up our things and leave." ”

After Mama Chen went out for a while, she entered the door again, and then deliberately turned the house into a mess and cleaned it up slowly.

It was close to the time of a stick of incense, and I hadn't gone out yet.

Seeing that I hadn't gone out for half a day, Gonggong Li suddenly became a little impatient, and shouted outside at his duck throat, "Fourth princess, what are you cleaning up?" There is everything in the palace, you don't have to pack up anything. ”

"Well, I don't like to use other people's things on weekdays, so I have to clean up everything I can pack, this is going to stay in the palace for a few months, and I ask Gonggong Li to wait a little." As I spoke, I carried the gadgets that Jiang Tang gave me, as well as some medicinal powder, maybe I could use it.

I don't know if I'll be able to escape fate in this life, but I'll always have to fight.

After another half a pillar of incense, Gonggong Li seemed to realize something, and simply rushed in directly, almost threateningly, asking me if I was unwilling to serve the queen.

Seeing that the time couldn't drag on, I entered the palace slowly.

Sure enough, as I expected, the emperor didn't even let me bring a personal maidservant.

Mama Chen wanted to follow me into the carriage, but was directly driven down by Gonggong Li, saying that the emperor only passed me on, but did not let others enter the palace.

It seems that the emperor really wants me to die.

And it's for me to die quietly......

I clenched my palms tightly and tried to calm myself down.

It was a bumpy ride, and when I arrived at the Queen's Palace, it was already an hour later.

At this moment, the queen sat upright on the main seat, her face was ruddy, and she didn't seem to have any problems at all.

The emperor sat beside her, also with a serious face.

Sure enough, the queen's illness is just a pretense, and it is true that she wants my life.

I knew it in my heart, but at the moment, I had to pretend I didn't know anything.

If I stab it directly, the emperor and queen will tell me about the righteousness of the country and let me sacrifice myself for the country.

Unfortunately, even though I am willing to sacrifice myself for my country, I am not willing to do so.

Besides, I have already died once, and I also understand that even if I really give up my life, it won't be long before Zhou Guo will find a reason to make trouble.

I stepped forward and looked very obedient and respectful, "My son and the queen mother, please say goodbye to my father and queen mother." ”

"Get up...... the emperor's face softened slightly, and his voice was deliberately kind.

I guess I want to be moved by affection and reason.

I pretended not to know, deliberately glanced at the queen, and stammered, "Didn't you say that the queen mother was sick?" ”

"The fourth family, my father invited you into the palace today, but in fact, I asked you for help with other things." The emperor said this very approachably, and he didn't have half a stand.

This is the king, he can fight fiercely on the one hand, but on the other hand, he can force a person to death with the overall situation.

I continued to pretend to be confused, respectfully, "What does my father have to do with his sons?" The sons and daughters must do their best. ”

Hearing this, the emperor sighed deliberately, "Actually, this matter is not difficult, it's just ...... The cost is somewhat large. ”

"The fourth family, do you know that now the Zhou State and our Northern Dynasty are at war every year, and there are more and more refugees who have fled to Chang'an City in the past two years."

Is this going to start talking to me about the national disaster? And then put on a merciful face and let me die?

Oh, if he is really merciful, he can let me cheat to death, or let Zhao Rongxian divorce me.

But the emperor wants me to die, I know, because I once pointed a sword at him, because of Yang Suxin's incident that day, my existence is a thorn in the emperor, a thorn that makes him feel ashamed.

On the one hand, he is for the overall situation, but on the other hand, he is also looking for revenge, after all, being pointed at with a sword and saying that he is not is an insult to an emperor.

Thinking about it, the queen also blew a lot of pillow wind in his ears.

Now the emperor will definitely try his best to persuade me to die.

I have to drag it if I can.

I nodded slightly, and sighed with him, "Erchen heard that now there are wars every year, and it is really hard for the people." ”

"Father, but do you need your son's help to raise donations?" I asked again pretendedly, pretending to be naïve, "Erchen's mother's family is a merchant, and there are many merchants who are familiar with each other, if my father needs the help of my son, Erchen will immediately go back to his parents' house and tell his father." ”

"No, the current war cannot be solved by fundraising." The Emperor frowned, as if he wanted to speak.

At this time, the queen really opened her mouth.

Her face was diametrically opposed to the emperor, serious and cold, "The fourth family, in fact, the palace and His Majesty sent you into the palace today, hoping that you can leave the fourth family." Now for the sake of a truce, the two countries need to be peaceful, and our Northern Dynasty has planned to send the three princesses to the Zhou Kingdom, and the Zhou Kingdom has sent their Princess Yunxiu. ”

"Now the candidate for this kind of family has chosen the fourth. But the fourth child has already married, and he can't let the princess of Zhou be a concubine. Therefore, this palace and your father, I hope you can sacrifice yourself so that my northern border will be peaceful from now on. ”

"Does the queen mother mean that she wants me to die?" I was deliberately frightened, looked at her in disbelief, and instantly burst into tears, "Erchen doesn't know what he did wrong, he must die." If the princess of Zhou Guo was unwilling to be a concubine, and the retainer asked to abandon the cold palace, why did she have to take the life of the retainer. ”

When I asked me this, the faces of the emperor and the empress were a little ugly, and both of them were a little unable to answer for a while.

I looked at the queen silently, and said again with a crying voice, "Besides, isn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still unmarried?" has never been married, why do you have to let the prince and kiss? ”

"Bold!" As soon as the queen heard me mention the crown prince, she immediately became angry, "The fourth family, are you questioning Your Majesty?" ”

Oppugn? Am I more than questioning? I want to curse directly.

I sneered in my heart, and I still pretended to be aggrieved on the surface, "Queen Mother, the sons don't dare, the sons just ...... I just feel that the crown prince is more suitable and sincere than the prince. ”

"What do you think? What do you know? The queen glared at me angrily, her mouth full of bitterness, "You are a merchant, it is your honor to marry into the royal family, and it is your honor to sacrifice for the Northern Dynasty, but you are so prevaricated, but you have put this palace and Your Majesty in your eyes." ”

"Queen!" Before the empress could finish her words, the emperor immediately called out to her, and then pretended to reprimand her, "How can you talk like that? The fourth family married the fourth, that is the royal person, no matter what her background was, now she is the fourth princess of the dignified and upright. ”

After saying that, the emperor sighed again and said softly, "I don't want to do this anymore, but what has become of the border now?" It's not that I didn't want to make peace with the crown prince, but the prince is the future king, and he will inherit the throne in the future. If he really let him marry the princess of the Zhou Kingdom, will our Northern Dynasty fall into the hands of aliens in the future? ”

"So, this person can only be the fourth. At this moment, only the fourth child is the most suitable, the fourth child is the most prominent among the princes, if he marries the princess of the Zhou Kingdom, it also shows the sincerity of our Northern Dynasty. ”

"There's no way around it, the fourth family, my father doesn't want you to die, but if you think about the people of our Northern Dynasty, you can't always watch them suffer."

"Father knows you're a good boy."

These two couples, one with a red face and the other with a white face, wanted to persuade me to die.

Naturally, I didn't want to die, but after being persuaded by them for a while, I was a little puzzled.

This emperor has already tricked me into the palace, he can directly ask for my life, but why is he persuading me to die?

It seems that I must have died of my own free will.

I looked at the emperor and queen in front of me in a daze, and the tears in my eyes were even worse, "Do you have to die?" ”

"I don't want to ......do this," the emperor said, and instructed the queen, "Queen, go get a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and let the fourth family leave a letter for the fourth child, so that their husband and wife don't have time to say goodbye." ”

Goodbye?

He obviously forced me to write a suicide note, telling Zhao Rongxian that I died voluntarily, so that Zhao Rongxian couldn't blame him.

Is he afraid that Zhao Rongxian will rebel?

So, if I didn't admit that I died voluntarily, he wouldn't dare let me die easily, but might put me under house arrest or threaten me with something else.

But if he threatens me, I won't leave anything, just die, Zhao Rongxian may still rebel.

Otherwise, the king of a country wants my life immediately, so why bother talking so much nonsense with me.

So, as long as I don't write, he won't kill me right away.

Even if someone imitates my handwriting, if my death is a little weird, Zhao Rongxian may be suspicious.

In short, if I don't want to die by myself, I can still delay it for a while.

So I shook my head, pretending to be very aggrieved and said, "If you can sacrifice for the Northern Dynasty and your sons are fearless, there is no need to keep this suicide note, and the prince of the province will feel uncomfortable." It's just that before he died, Erchen wanted to make another Buddha jumping over the wall for the prince, and the prince liked to eat the Buddha jumping over the wall made by Erchen on weekdays. ”

Hearing this, the emperor's and queen's faces darkened, this Buddha jumping over the wall is not an ordinary dish, it takes time to prepare the ingredients, and it takes three hours to stew with a simmer, and when I finish it, it will be almost four hours.

If I rub it out any longer, Zhao Rongxian will have time to come back.

"Your Majesty, according to what the concubines see, it's better to ......"

"Your Majesty, Niangniang, Concubine Wei asks to see you." Before the queen finished speaking, the voice of Gonggong Li suddenly came from outside.

The queen's face changed suddenly, and she said in a cold voice, "The sun is about to set, what is Concubine Wei here for?" ”

"Wei Guifei heard that Niangniang was sick, so she made some chicken soup and wanted to give it to Niangniang."

The queen's face was even darker, she and Wei Guifei had always been at odds, and this Wei Guifei gave her chicken soup, in her opinion, she was uneasy and kind, or she was deliberately flattering the emperor.

Sure enough, when he heard Concubine Wei Guifei send chicken soup, the emperor's expression looked a little better.

After Yang Suxin fell out of favor a few days ago, this Wei Guifei gradually regained her favor, and she changed her previous style and pretended to be very kind.

Because, the emperor has been quite fond of Wei Guifei recently. If it weren't for the queen deliberately praising Wei Guifei's daughter, the third princess, for being smart and sensible, she would still be able to get information when she arrived in the Zhou Kingdom, and with Wei Guifei's favor recently, this kind of kiss might have to be the fourth princess from the queen.

Xu thought of the third princess, the emperor felt a little sorry for Wei Guifei, and saw that Wei Guifei was so 'understanding. ’

He glanced at the queen shallowly, and said unhurriedly to Li Gong outside, "Take it in." ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Concubine Wei said that she would personally serve the queen." Gonggong Li was a little embarrassed.

The queen's hand trembling a little as she touched the table, and said coldly, "Gonggong Li, you go and tell Wei Guifei, just say that the palace has rested, and let Wei Guifei come to serve tomorrow." ”

Gonggong Li answered, and after a while, he came in again, his eyes full of embarrassment," Wei Guifei said...... I want to see Your Majesty, and I cry and cry. ”

Heh, I really didn't find the wrong person when I looked for Wei Guifei.

This Wei Guifei, knowing that the queen was not sick, deliberately came to serve, but now that she heard that the queen had rested, she said that she wanted to see the emperor, and she was crying.

On the surface, it seems that she has come to beg the emperor not to let her daughter go to the marriage in the name of serving the empress, but in fact, she is helping me stall for time.

The emperor and empress must not want others to know about this kind of thing, at least until I die, they are not willing to leak the news. Naturally, Wei Guifei couldn't let him know.

Now the queen first said that she had rested, and Wei Guifei said that she wanted to see the emperor.

At this hour, it would not be reasonable for the emperor to say that he had rested.

Besides, they couldn't let Wei Guifei know that he actually forced me to die and asked me to write a suicide note.

Wei Guifei is so smart, you can immediately guess that he is afraid of Zhao Rongxian, how embarrassing it is.

The emperor was a little embarrassed for a while, he paused, waved his hand and said, "Go and tell Wei Guifei that I am busy reviewing the recitals and have no time to see her." ”

"The concubine said that she must see Your Majesty today, otherwise she will kneel outside." Gonggong Li came in again and passed on a word.

"Then let her kneel." The emperor's face suddenly looked a little unsightly.

Gonggong Li became trembling when he spoke, "The concubine said, just ...... The third princess committed suicide by cutting her wrists, and she was still in a coma at the moment......"

"What!" The emperor was slightly shocked, but quickly calmed down again, "What's the matter with the third princess?" ”

"I've been rescued, but I'm still trying to die. The concubine said that the queen was sick and should not have been disturbed, and she wanted to come to the Lizheng Palace quietly to invite Her Majesty, but now Her Majesty avoided it, so she had to tell the truth. ”

"The concubine also said that if Your Majesty didn't want to see her, she would have to break in!"

The queen was immediately annoyed, "This Wei Guifei is really ignorant. ”

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, I beg you, the concubine, please don't let Han'er and kiss! Before the queen finished speaking, Wei Guifei's cry suddenly came from outside, and then the cry became louder and louder, and the palace people outside were busy stopping her, saying that she couldn't break in.

But where was she willing to listen, shouting that if she was not allowed to see the emperor, she would die in the hall.

This trouble frightened the emperor, and the emperor immediately agreed to go out to see Wei Guifei.

The queen's face was blackened with coal, and her eyes were full of jealousy.

She gritted her teeth, pretended to be nothing, and looked at me again, "The fourth family, today you are willing to be willing, and if you are not willing, you must be willing." The Northern Dynasty suffered from the enemy on the back and abdomen, and it was helpless to make peace with you, and it was also helpless to ask you to die. You don't have to procrastinate, poison wine and white silk, you choose your own path. ”

Hehe, helpless?

They knew they could have tricked me to death, but they wanted me to die.

It was also said that it was helpless! It's all selfish, first, to achieve the goal of harmony, and second, to make me, the person who has seen their jokes, disappear forever.

An emperor, a queen, nothing more than that.

I looked at her aggrievedly and said what I had said before, "Queen Mother, Erchen has already said it, Erchen wants to do another Buddha jumping over the wall for the prince." ”

"You're just stalling for time!" Because of the arrival of Concubine Wei, the queen was suddenly a little irritable.

I frowned, my face full of innocence, "What is the Queen Mother talking about?" Why did Erchen stall? Erchen has already said that as long as he does the Buddha jumping over the wall again for the prince, Erchen can die! ”

"You...... Someone's coming......"

"The fourth prince arrives at the ......" The sky outside was already dark, and with the shouting of a duck, the queen's voice immediately stopped abruptly, and a pair of phoenix eyes glared at me angrily.

Zhao Rongxian is no better than Wei Guifei, those palace people can't stop him at all, and before the queen has time to give orders, he has already broken in.

"Didn't you say that the queen mother was sick and dying? Look, you're in good spirits. Zhao Rongxian held a long sword in his hand and looked at the queen coldly.

Without waiting for the queen to speak, he looked at me again, and suddenly realized, "Erchen knows, the queen mother must have been blessed by Ah Huan, and it took less than half a day to drive away the evil spirit!" ”
