Chapter 124: Red Snow Falling from the Sky
The Egret Pavilion has been frighteningly quiet these days, and Zhou Jinhuan only thought about his own situation, but he didn't notice that the palace maids around him had changed.
"Have you eaten?"
Zhao Yu pushed the door in, there was no place in the entire palace that he couldn't go, not to mention that this Egret Pavilion was also a prison he specially prepared for her?
Zhou Jinhuan didn't seem to see him, just leaned quietly on the side of the bed, expressionless.
"Back to the emperor, the girl only drank some porridge today and didn't eat anything else. The one who answered was a little palace maid with an eye.
"Bring things up, and you all stand down. He didn't expect her to say anything, so he told Little Mencius to carry a full pot of snow into the room, waved his hand and let them go.
"Last time, you didn't ask me if Xiao Jingzhi was dead, I didn't tell you directly, but now I tell you plainly that he is dead. ”
There was a basin of snow between the two of them, as if they were separated from each other at the ends of the earth.
"You can't believe me, but you've seen this thing, right?"
Zhao Yu was no longer so angry about Zhou Jinhuan's ignorance, he took out a silk handkerchief from his sleeve, the blue silk handkerchief was too familiar to her, but she was still afraid that she was wrong, so she hurriedly got out of bed and snatched the silk handkerchief.
There will be no two identical leaves in the world, not to mention that the crooked three words embroidered on the silk handkerchief are from her?
"Zhao Yu, why do you have to kill him?" she put the silk handkerchief on her cheek, as if to sense his breath in this way.
"That's because he deserves to die. Zhao Yu suddenly showed a strange smile on her face, she couldn't say what she felt, but it made her very uncomfortable, he lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "Zhou Jinhuan, do you really think that Xiao Jingzhi loves you?"
"If you're okay, please go back, I want to rest. Holding the silk handkerchief tightly in her hand, she gave an eviction order, but Zhao Yu was willing to go, and grabbed her hand: "Why are you afraid of hearing something?"
"You're a madman, I'd be a fool if I believed your words, you let go of me, you scratched me!" She tried to shake off Zhao Yu's hand, but the strength was not enough, he ignored her resistance, hugged her in his arms, and wanted to drill into her heart like a poisonous snake: "He Xiao Jingzhi is a foreign minister, he hasn't come to this palace many times, so many palaces, how can he just run into you?"
"Zhao Yu, what you said is too boring, it was obvious that you deliberately let us meet in order to control him, this is just your plan, why do you insist on pushing it on Jing Zhi now?"
"My plan is later, and your first encounter has nothing to do with me. ”
Now that Xiao Jing knows that the others have left, naturally Zhao Yu can say whatever he wants, and splash dirty water on a dead man, but fortunately he can think of it.
"Okay, even if your several attempts in the Egret Pavilion are indeed inseparable from my encouragement, then what about the time I sent him to deliver the proton, the original person from the Great Liang State was Hu He, if there was no discord between them, he was a traitor, and he killed tens of thousands of Liang soldiers, how could Hu let him go, and let him come back unscathed to marry you?"
This is the most unacceptable to Zhao Yu, he obviously sent Xiao Jingzhi to death, and those Liang people would let him come back, which is unreasonable at all.
"There is also the siege of Zhangzhou City, it was clear that the battle situation was favorable to my Dayan, how could he let go of such a good opportunity to negotiate peace with them?"
Seeing that Zhou Jinhuan had not reacted, Zhao Yu listed another piece of evidence.
"Your original intention is to let Jing Zhi die, but you are afraid that others will say that you are the emperor is mediocre, so you want to use all kinds of unwarranted speculation to close him to a dead end, isn't it?"
If she continued to pretend to be dumb, Zhao Yu didn't know what kind of words would come out of her mouth.
"Zhou Jinhuan, you won't forget what you said, right?"
Those who are not of my race will have different hearts.
Regardless of whether these eight words are Zhao Yu's excuse or not, Zhou Jinhuan understands that Xiao Jingzhi's death is inseparable from himself.
"What's more, thousands of soldiers knelt outside Hongzhou City, shouting for him Xiao Jingzhi, do you think I can let him stay in this world?"
Seeing that Zhou Jinhuan's color was dim, Zhao Yu added, and that sentence made her almost spurt out a mouthful of blood: One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, unless there is a male and a female.
Maybe Zhao Yu really didn't have the intention of killing Xiao Jingzhi at the beginning, he just wanted to use him to calm the border, but he didn't want his martial arts to exceed his imagination. Kings like talented people, but they like talented people who can be controlled, and if that person is difficult to control, the more talented they are, the more dangerous they are, and the more they need to be eradicated, so as not to cause trouble.
"Zhou Jinhuan, you said that if it weren't for the red snow falling from the sky, you and I would be enemies forever, so what if it was red snow from the sky?"
Zhao Yu looked at her increasingly ugly face, naturally hugged her waist, reached out and pulled off the wooden apricot hairpin in her hand, her hair was scattered on her shoulders, and just as he was about to say something, he used the hairpin in his hand to cut his palm fiercely, and the red blood dripped down his fingertips little by little onto the basin of white snow, like a bewitching and amorous blood azalea.
Such a scene is a little bloody and a little demonic.
She watched as the white snow melted and infected by the warm blood, slowly turning into blood, but her face was expressionless, as if everything had nothing to do with her.
Zhao Yu heard her slight sneer, the bloody hairpin continued to face upward, and it was another fierce one at her arm, this time it just scratched the artery, and the blood trickled out like a spring, and in an instant, the snow in the entire basin turned red, and the bloody gas filled the whole room, this smell she smelled too many times on the battlefield, which aroused her thoughts about Xiao Jingzhi even more, and pushed away Zhao Yu, who was going to continue to abuse herself, and said coldly: " I'm talking about red snow falling from the sky, and if you take a basin like this and put some blood, even if it is red snow, you take me for a fool?"
"Zhou Jinhuan, this is already the biggest concession I can make, you don't have to make an inch. "The blood on his arm was still there, and it smelled of disgusting blood.
"No one told you to do it, if you really care about what I said, 'red snow from the sky', go and put your arm in the snowdrift to dye the white snow red, don't fool me with such a small basin!"
Zhou Jinhuan naturally didn't believe that Zhao Yu would do this, so she said it so confidently that she kicked the blood-stained basin aside.
"Aren't you afraid that I will let people make the wild seeds in your stomach?" Zhao Yu was also angry with her, and pushed her onto the bed, with a raging fire in her eyes, and suddenly with an evil smile on her face: "Or I don't need others to do it at all, I can let you have a miscarriage!"
His words were already obvious, coupled with the eyes staring at her lips, she felt that she was trembling all over, thinking of Xiao Jingzhi, who was already dead, she smiled: "You are the emperor, do whatever you want, the child in my belly has been more than three months, he can't live, I can't live, I should thank you for giving me a chance to become a ghost and don't let you go......"
"Bang bang" three times, before her words landed, his fist hit the wall hard, the blood on his arm flung on her fair cheeks, a little red lined her cheeks more and more white, and he stared at her for a long time, and finally got out of bed, the front of the beaten left a trail of blood, which was extraordinarily seeping.
"Zhou Jinhuan, maybe I really should have killed you. He looked at the blood basin at his feet, straightened his clothes, and walked out of the room seemingly calmly.
"Zhao Yu, who the fuck are you scaring about, what's so terrible about dying, it's the most disgusting thing for you in the whole day!" she threw the blood basin rolling back and forth out of the room, and in one sentence it seemed to exhaust all her strength.
"Girl, girl, ...... you" As soon as Zhao Yu left, a little palace maid came in, and what she saw was the blood stains all over the house, and she was so frightened that she couldn't possess her body.
"Get out, get out!" she was still emotionally unstable, throwing out the pillows and sheets on the bed: "I don't want to see you, don't see you!"
The little palace maid was so frightened that she trotted all the way to Gonggong Meng, and Gonggong Meng let her go back after a few perfunctory words.
"Your Majesty, the palace maid of the Egret Pavilion has come to report, Miss Jinhuan ......" Xiao Mengzi piled up a smile, and was interrupted by Zhao Yu angrily as soon as he said two sentences: "Is she dead or alive, what are you doing, get out!"
Xiao Mengzi didn't know what happened in the White Egret Pavilion, he only blamed himself for following the emperor for so many years without a little eyesight, and he couldn't see the resentment in his eyes.
Resentment? This word made Xiao Mencius a little incredible, you must know that it was the first time he and the emperor had seen him so angry in so many years, angry, yes, angry.
The one in the White Egret Pavilion must have lived for a short time, right?
was thinking about it, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the main hall, he heard Zhao Yu's voice: "Come back, say, what did the palace maid of the White Egret Pavilion say?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the little palace maid said that Miss Jinhuan seemed to be injured, and the house was full of blood, and she was worried about ......"
"Go and ask the imperial doctor to show her, I won't be going to the Egret Pavilion these days, and you are not allowed to mention those three words in front of me, understand?"
The blood was all his Zhao Yu's, but he couldn't say that, so he could only ask the imperial doctor to go to cover it up.
"By the way, you tell the imperial doctor to prepare some soothing medicine for her, the amount should be sufficient, preferably the kind that can let her lie in bed for a month or two. ”
Xiao Mengzi was surprised at first, and then seemed to understand something, and was about to retreat after receiving the will, but Zhao Yu felt that his expression was not quite right, and called him back: "I said that the imperial doctor should give her some calming medicine, but she is not allowed to hurt the child in her belly, understand?"
Xiao Mencius broke out in a cold sweat, but fortunately the emperor added this sentence, otherwise he might really do something wrong.
"Also, ask Su Wan to come in. ”
"Yes. ”
Su Wan was dressed as a palace maid and walked in from outside the hall, her face was a little pale, she was recovering from a serious illness.
"The slave and maid knocked to see the emperor. ”
"Zhou Jinhuan is a nostalgic person, I sent you to the Egret Pavilion, my request is for her to give birth to the child safely, can you do it?"
