The queen listened to her words, and her eyes were slightly moved. In fact, how could she not know that Concubine Jing was telling the truth? They have been married for 20 years, and she can remember every word and deed of the emperor, every subtle expression, for her, the emperor is not only the emperor of all the people in the world, but also her husband, her God, in this regard, she is no different from ordinary women. In the harem, she is neither the most beautiful nor the smartest, but she is definitely the most sincere to the emperor, but unfortunately, the emperor is destined to do great things, and she has no time to experience small love, so her sincerity has become less important.

"Actually, why bother? You are generous, you are virtuous, he does not have you in his heart, all he loves is power. When Concubine Jing said this, she sneered: "Once, I thought he loved me the most, so I was willing to risk the world's disapproval, just to have a moment of joy with him." But pleasure is short-lived, pain is long-lasting, and I have exchanged three years of affection and courtesy for thirty years of dungeon life, can you imagine?"

The queen looked at her in shock, and could not imagine what it was like to be imprisoned for thirty years. She originally thought that Concubine Jing must have been hidden by the emperor's golden house over the years, so she disappeared, unexpectedly...

"Now you see, the man you love is like this. Concubine Jing looked at the queen who was about to collapse, and hit mercilessly.

"No, no, no! it's not true!" cried the queen hysterically, and at this time she had no more dignity to speak of.

Concubine Jing no longer paid attention to the self-deceiving queen, only to see her return to her seat and sit down, the little palace maid next to her immediately brought her new tea, she took a sip of tea, looked outside, and said to herself: "Count the hour, the emperor should also come." ”

Sure enough, not long after saying this, the emperor really came. I saw him looking at everyone with a smile: "I have something, I have delayed for a while, you continue, don't be formal." The queen is well arranged, and I am very relieved. He looked around, only to feel that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and said: "What's the matter, Queen, you say..." He saw that the queen's eyes were hollow, and her face was mottled with tears, and he couldn't help frowning: "What's going on?" The queen didn't answer, and she didn't get up to salute. The Emperor felt that something was wrong, and asked the others, "Can anyone tell me what is going on?" and there was a hint of anger in his voice. A good banquet should be a happy one, but this look like a mourning woman makes people angry when they see it.

"Your Majesty, don't blame, they have just learned the truth of some things, and they haven't eased up yet, so let them take a moment. Jing Concubine sat in the corner, with a blooming white chrysanthemum in her ear, and the whole person was tranquil and elegant, forming a strong contrast with the surroundings.

"Is it you who did it?" Xia Yunping, my patience has a limit, you don't want to make an inch!" the emperor said angrily, he was really fed up with this woman! A barbarian is a barbarian, and he really doesn't know what to do with him by virtue of some unseemly means.

"Your Majesty said yes. It is true that I have to make every inch, but how can I be so scheming in order for Your Majesty to be able to inherit the great unification, endure humiliation and burden, and compromise and seek perfection, what is a woman, and what is worth dozens of hundreds of lives?"

"You are presumptuous!" The emperor said angrily: "Xia Yunping, I shouldn't have spared your life back then, not only did you not repent all these years, but you dared to slander me in front of so many people." Come on, take this demon woman down to me!"

Concubine Jing looked at him and smiled silently, and the emperor couldn't stand her contemptuous gaze, and shouted again: "Someone!"

"Your Majesty, it's better to save the province, your people won't come. ”

"What do you mean by that?" the Emperor did not believe that she was capable of such a thing.

"Your Majesty, don't you believe it?" Before she finished speaking, a person who looked like a guard walked in and saluted Concubine Jing: "What do you command?"

"You, you dare to betray me!" the emperor looked at his chief of guard incredulously, "Zhang Lang, I am the true son of heaven, and you still have time to atone for your sins." As long as you take down this witch, I will forgive you for your sins of disrespect. ”

"Your Majesty, Zhang Lang's original surname is Xia, he could have gone through the imperial examination, and he had no worries about food and clothing, if it weren't for His Majesty's sudden order to kill the Xia family thirty years ago, I wouldn't have changed my name and surname and hid in Tibet. Abandoning literature and martial arts is to protect himself and seek justice for the Xia family. Zhang Lang said solemnly.

"Justice?" the emperor sneered, "What kind of family is your Xia family, do you still use me to say it? Witch doctors and witch medicine are taboo, and they are also the foundation of your Xia family, when the ancestors were tolerant and favored your Xia family, but you did not repent, and secretly played witchcraft, did you want to rebel?"

"The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty. Brother Lang, I told you a long time ago, the emperor is incompetent and suspicious, you don't believe it, and now you are still talking to him about what he is doing, kill him directly, so as to comfort the souls of the people in the sky. Concubine Jing's tone was careless, as if there was no difference between killing the emperor and killing a chicken.

Zhang Lang held the scabbard as if hesitating, and Concubine Jing said again: "Don't forget how your father died?"

When he mentioned this, Zhang Lang was immediately sad and indignant, he no longer hesitated, pulled out his long knife, and strode towards the emperor.

Seeing this, the emperor hurriedly retreated, and said: "Zhang Lang, you have to think clearly, I treat you well, you are doing this is a great crime of killing the king, and you will punish the nine clans!"

"Nine Clans, do we still have Nine Clans, weren't we punished by you thirty years ago?" Jing Concubine's tone was sharp, and there was bitter hatred in her eyes.

Zhiying and Concubine An glanced at each other, did they care about this matter or not, but before they could make a decision, things changed again.

At this critical moment, a young man in brocade clothes led his troops to break in.

"Father, the son is too late to save the car, and I hope that my father will forgive my sins. "Here came the crown prince, the eldest son of the emperor and the former empress.

"My son is good!" The emperor saw the crown prince and immediately had confidence, "Emperor, quickly put these two rebellious ministers and thieves to death on the spot!"

"The prince is really good, but it's a pity that it's still too tender. Concubine Jing didn't panic, but turned her head to the air and said, "Third prince, the play is almost over, it's time to come out and end it." ”

"Hahaha, wonderful, really wonderful!" the third prince said, and behind him were a large number of Praetorian Guards.

"Rebel, you dare to collude with them to murder me!" the emperor was furious. He could never have imagined that he was a wise man, but in the end it was his own son who rebelled against him.

"Father's anger," the third prince pretended to salute, "The son-in-law is also forced to do so, seeing that the father-in-law is declining and the eldest brother is in his prime, what can the son-in-law do? ”

"You!" the Emperor was speechless.

"Didn't my father succeed to the throne by murdering his brother back then? Erchen is the son of his father, so he should naturally act like his father. Big brother, don't blame the younger brother for being ruthless, there is only one throne, but there are many brothers, if you want to blame, blame being born in the emperor's family. ”

"Third brother, how can you do this? Father..."Before the crown prince could finish speaking, he saw the emperor suddenly fall to the ground, looking extremely painful.

"Father, what's wrong with you?Third brother, what did you do to your father?" The crown prince hugged the emperor and looked at the third prince, his eyes full of shock and puzzlement.

"My father is old and excited, and I can't blame him. The third prince didn't care.

"You are talking nonsense!" The crown prince knew that the emperor's health had always been healthy and that he would never fall ill suddenly, and he must have done something.

The third prince understood what the prince meant, and saw him leaning into the prince's ear, and said in a low voice: "Yes, it was my hands and feet, and it is thanks to the cooperation of Concubine Jing Niangniang that we can work together to create this situation today." Big brother, since you are so filial, why don't you go with your father. ”

The prince felt a pain in his abdomen, and looked down to see a dagger stuck in it, "You..."

The third prince stood up and said to everyone present: "What you have seen today, what should be said and what should not be said, are you clear? Your Majesty suffered from an old disease, heart failure, and died. The crown prince was too sad and could not let go of the relationship between father and son, so he went with His Majesty. This king obeyed the mandate of heaven and chose a day to ascend the throne. ”

Everyone was silent under the gaze of the three princes, they had been frightened by today's events, even if they were asked to say it, they couldn't understand it.

Zhiying and Concubine An secretly said that it was not good, the three princes killed their father and brother, they were cruel and unkind, such people were destined to be disasters when they were emperors, and they couldn't let this kind of thing happen.

The third prince was about to instruct the forbidden army to clean up the mess, when the emperor suddenly struggled to his feet.

"I really don't want to give up. The third prince shook his head helplessly, and was about to kill the emperor with a knife, when the emperor suddenly said: "Rebel, there is no jade seal, your seat will not be long in your seat!"

The third prince thought for a while and said with a smile: "Could it be that my father wants to help his son? You have also seen that the eldest brother is no longer good, and only I can take on the big responsibility." ”

The emperor no longer paid attention to him, but turned to Zhiying and Concubine An and said, "You have all seen today's events, do you also want to be in the same stream?"

Zhiying couldn't hold back, "Your Majesty, it's not that we want to die or not be saved, as long as you tell me the whereabouts of my fellow disciples, I will definitely help." ”

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "It's really self-inflicted." ”

"What do you mean?"

"I don't understand yet, my father must have killed them all, how did the dead people come back?" said the third prince.

"Impossible, impossible!" Zhiying became excited, "Your Majesty, tell me the truth, are they still alive?" Concubine An was also shocked, and pulled Zhiying and said, "Don't worry, maybe they'll be fine." ”

The emperor was speechless. The poison under Concubine Jing is really powerful, and the imperial doctors are helpless, and they don't dare to speak out, so they have done their best to drag it out to this day. When he was dying, he looked at the prince beside him again, and finally slowly closed his eyes and slept forever.
