Chapter 295 [Storm in the Imperial City] (I)
Hu Xiaotian's original intention was to let Xiong Tianba go first, so as to save this kid from staying in Yongdu and causing trouble, but Zhou Mo thought about it reasonably, except for Zhou Mo and himself, other people really couldn't control this kid, so it was more reassuring to stay by his side.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Then let Zhao Chongwu go with you." ”
Xiao Tianmu said: "Don't worry about this matter, I asked Gao Yuan to accompany them to Hailing County, this kid is clever enough, and he will definitely be able to arrange a qiē properly." ”
Hu Xiaotian said: "The rest of the people will return to Qichen Palace with me to see how things develop, and then see the opportunity to act." ”
After everyone left, Xiao Tianmu left Hu Xiaotian alone, Hu Xiaotian knew that he must have something important to say, and said in a low voice: "What do you have to say about the second brother?" ”
Xiao Tianmu said: "Third brother, in fact, there will be a battle between Dayong and Dakang sooner or later, even if that witch kills Xue Daoming, it is nothing more than igniting the war in advance." ”
Hu Xiaotian was shocked in his heart, he didn't think through this truth, Dakang is declining day by day, and has fallen from the former overlord of the Central Plains to the fat meat that everyone wants to swallow, this marriage may be postponed for a while, but it will definitely not play the role of eternal peace. Xiao Tianmu said it well, even if Xi Yan killed Xue Daoming, this account would only be counted on Dakang's head, and he didn't have much loss in this matter, as long as this marriage was successfully completed, then even if he completed his task, he would have an explanation for Dakang.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Even so, if she succeeds, Emperor Dakang will inevitably find a scapegoat." ”
Xiao Tianmu said: "I'm just talking about the worst step, if I can persuade her to change her mind, of course it's the best." ”
A dull spring thunder suddenly sounded outside the window, and the whole world seemed to shake for it, and the two stopped talking, and a heavy rain had fallen outside in an instant, and the dense spring rain instantly enveloped the whole world. Hu Xiaotian came to the window and stretched out his hand to close the window.
The night breeze mixed with rain and fog had sneaked into the room at this moment, wetting the table and blowing out the candles.
Xiao Tianmu walked over with ease, found the flint and re-lit the candle, for him there was no difference between light and darkness.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Second brother." You should have prepared to leave Yongdu earlier. ”
Xiao Tianmu said: "I will leave Yongdu tomorrow." ”
Hu Xiaotian didn't expect him to go so fast, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Xiao Tianmu said: "I want to return to Kangdu first, things here are confusing, if things change, Uncle Hu and they must have someone to take care of them." ”
Hu Xiaotian pursed his lips with some emotion, Xiao Tianmu was far more thoughtful than himself.
Kangdu is also raining, but it is not as imposing as Yongdu, and it is dripping, and Kangdu in the night is bathed in smoke and rain. The wind and rain are bitter, lingering and compassionate. It was almost midnight, and the Dakang Emperor Long Yelin still hadn't fallen asleep, sitting quietly in front of the bookcase, his face full of worry, and the files on the bookcase had already piled up, but he didn't have the heart to read it, because he knew it in his heart. There is not a single bit of good news in this mountain of memoranda and dossier.
The little eunuch Yin Yan knocked on the door and walked in, and Empress Jian followed his footsteps and walked in.
Long Yelin felt the difference. He hadn't been to Xinning Palace for a long time, and the queen rarely came to disturb him, but he didn't know what was going on with this late-night visit? Thinking of the matter that has troubled her recently, Long Yelin sighed in her heart, it seems that she is here for this matter this time.
Empress Jian picked up a bowl of ginseng soup from the tray held by the palace maid behind her, and slowly walked to Long Yelin. He said softly: "Your Majesty, the concubine just cooked a bowl of ginseng soup for you to replenish your body." ”
Long Yelin said indifferently: "Put it here." ”
Empress Jian sighed and said, "The concubine knows that the emperor is busy with state affairs all day long, but you also have to take care of your body." ”
Long Yelin frowned a little impatiently and said, "My body is very good. Go back and rest, and leave me alone. ”
Empress Jian made a look, and several palace people all withdrew.
Long Yelin raised his head, looked at Queen Jian coldly and said, "What? Didn't you hear what I said? ”
Empress Jian bit her lip and said gloomily: "Your Majesty, the concubine is just concerned about your body......"
Long Yelin's eyes looked at the bowl of ginseng soup on the table, reached out and picked it up, drank the ginseng soup in a few sips, and put the empty bowl on the bookcase: "Now you are satisfied, can you go?" ”
Empress Jane's heart seemed to be pierced by a needle, she shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, isn't there a place for concubines in your heart?" ”
Long Yelin looked at Queen Jane, and suddenly Long Yan was furious, grabbed the empty bowl and threw it to the ground, and immediately smashed it, and then Huo Ran got up and roared: "Are you not annoyed enough by me?" I am always working on the affairs of the state, and instead of worrying about me, you are annoying me. ”
Empress Jian knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The emperor is angry, the concubine just sent ginseng soup to the emperor to nourish the dragon body, and there is no other meaning......
"Slut! What do you think I don't know? It's nothing more than wanting me to make your son the crown prince! ”
"Your Majesty, Tingsheng is also your son."
Long Yelin sneered: "So what? How can he be worthy of the position of prince? Dakang is in danger and the country is declining, what is his ability to save the people from fire and water? ”
Empress Jian raised her head: "Your Majesty, the young and the old are orderly, and this has been the rule since ancient times. ”
Long Yelin glared at Queen Jian and walked towards her step by step and said, "Rules? You don't know that the rules are set by people, my words are holy decrees, and my words are rules! ”
Empress Jian said with tears: "In your heart, you have always preferred the third child, and you have never looked at Tingsheng with your eyes." ”
Long Yelin said: "Yes! I have made up my mind and decided to make Liting Town the prince of Dakang, what about it? What's your grievance? ”
Empress Jian burst into tears in her two lines, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, you are too unfair to Ting Sheng. ”
"There is no such thing as fairness in this world."
"Your Majesty, how have I treated you all these years, there is no credit and hard work, how did you promise me back then? Have you forgotten all about it now? ”
Long Yelin smiled and said, "Speaking of which, it's not that you are worried about your position. How do you treat me? After all these years, why did you treat me as your husband? What do you care about? Now that you fully understand, you can go! ”
Empress Jian nodded and said, "The concubine is leaving, since the emperor doesn't treat the concubine as your wife, how can the concubine treat you as my husband?" ”
Long Yelin couldn't help but be furious when he heard this, raised his hand and slapped Queen Jane in the face, making Queen Jane's cheeks swollen, and roared angrily: "Slut! Daring! Believe it or not, I have abolished you? ”
Empress Jian slowly stood up, and she laughed and said, "Letter! Of course, I believe that there is anything in this world that you can't do? Even your father, you dare to abolish me? ”
Long Yelin was completely enraged by her, and rushed towards her like an angry lion: "Bold ......" suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, he subconsciously covered his chest, and couldn't help but stumble under his feet.
Empress Jian looked at Long Yelin: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" ”
A familiar feeling poured into Long Yelin's body, he shook his head vigorously, struggled back to the bookcase, and wanted to return to the chair to sit down, but his hands and feet suddenly trembled, his hands grabbed the edge of the bookcase, and said in a trembling voice: "You...... You ......"
Empress Jian took out a medicine bottle from her sleeve, unscrewed the cork, and a faint aroma of herbs filled the air in the room.
Long Yelin closed his eyes hard, held his breath, and tried his best not to smell the tempting smell, but his nose moved uncontrollably, and finally he inhaled hard, as if he wanted to inhale all the smell of the air into his lungs. Then he felt a cramping pain in his chest, and he could barely stand on his feet, and his legs fell to his knees with a pop. Long Yelin covered his chest and screamed loudly, "Someone's coming...... Rescue ......"
There was no one to answer outside, and Queen Jian looked at him coldly, without the slightest emotion in her eyes, and she couldn't even find any mercy, all that was left was resentment and hatred.
Long Yelin screamed, "You...... What did you put in the ginseng soup? ”
Empress Jane looked at Long Yelin proudly, for the first time in her memory, she looked down at Long Yelin, looking at her husband, this Dakang Tianzi was prostrate at her feet, and there was an inexplicable pleasure in her heart, Queen Jane slowly came to Long Yelin's front and said softly: "There is only one hour left in your life." ”
Long Yelin pounced and wanted to catch Queen Jane, but just halfway through, he fell to the ground because of the sharp pain in his chest, and he screamed: "Poisonous woman! You poisonous woman, I will put you to death, and I will destroy your nine clans......"
Queen Jian sighed and said: "I don't want much, since I married you, I have accompanied you through so many ups and downs, sharing weal and woe, life and death, when you are frustrated, who will not leave you?" I don't ask you to never give up on me, I just ask you to support Tingsheng well and fulfill your promises in the past, but you can't even agree to such a simple request. ”
Long Yelin gritted his teeth and said: "Slut, I want to kill you and your evil seed all ......" Before she finished speaking, Queen Jian bowed down, raised her right hand and slapped him hard, causing Long Yelin's eyes to burst into gold and blood from the corners of his lips.
Queen Jane's willow eyebrows were upside down, and her phoenix eyes widened: "He is not a bad seed, he is your son, the tiger poison does not eat children, are you human?" Speaking of this, she shook her head and said: "You are not human, you can usurp the throne of your biological father, you can kill your siblings, how can there be the slightest family affection in your heart?" ”
Long Yelin said in a trembling voice: "You slut, do you know what you are doing?" ”
Empress Jian smiled and said: "I know, of course I know that everything in this world will have retribution, I will give you a chance, what should you do, you don't need me to teach you, right?" ”
