Chu Jingxuan didn't speak, and it seemed that he acquiesced to Chu Hongzhen's question.

Seeing Chu Jingshuo's reaction, Zhao Guifei looked eager to try.

It seemed that she wanted to say something for Chu Jingshuo, but she couldn't find a suitable opportunity for a while.

"Do you think I could have known in advance that you would rebel, and let Wu Zhang cooperate with you on the spot, wouldn't I have made other preparations?"

Chu Jingxuan raised his head sharply and looked at Chu Hongzhen with wide eyes.

He stared at Chu Hongzhen's mouth, clearly not wanting to hear Chu Hongzhen's next words.

But whether Chu Jingxuan wanted to listen or not, Chu Hongzhen still spoke slowly:

"Didn't you notice that my Secret Guard hadn't appeared until now? Do you want to guess where they went? ”

After Chu Hongzhen's reminder, the sword in Chu Jingxuan's hand fell to the ground in a panic:

"Father, you ......"

"Yes, your soldiers should have been subdued by now."

Chu Hongzhen's hand knocked on the table again, intentionally or unintentionally, and nodded at Chu Jingxuan lightly.

It turned out that Zhao Guifei, who was pale, seemed to suddenly think of something, she looked at Chu Jingshuo from afar, her eyes were full of determination.

Chu Jingxuan in the center of the hall was still shaking his head in dejection, as if he didn't want to believe everything in front of him.

He is not a mainstream sad teenager, Cheng Xiaoxiao simply doesn't see it.

It's not a young man anymore, pretending to be the troubles of adolescent Werther.

Yes, Cheng Xiaoxiao thought that Chu Jingxuan was still pretending.

The main person Chu Jingshuo gives people the feeling that he is insidious and cunning, and she will not believe that Chu Jingshuo will really collapse at all.

Chu Jingxuan still looked like a chattering god, and Zhao Guifei, who had been silent for a long time, finally had a voice.

I saw her stumbling in front of Chu Hongzhen from behind the wine case, and began to kowtow frantically to Chu Hongzhen:

"Your Majesty, please spare you. Shuo'er is not sensible, today's incident is just that he was drunk and confused for a while, he is not intentional. ”

Zhao Guifei's eyes were full of tears when she ran over, which would drip everywhere with her movements.

Chu Hongzhen didn't speak, nor did he pay attention to Zhao Guifei's plea, as if he couldn't see Zhao Guifei.

knew that her words were very pale and weak, but Zhao Guifei still refused to give up, and she kowtowed to Su Guifei on the side:

"Sister, you have been the most kind-hearted in the past, and Your Majesty has always been very fond of you. Today, my sister begs you, please help my sister plead with Your Majesty, and beg Your Majesty to let us go. ”

Su Guifei wanted to hide but couldn't hide, she looked at Zhao Guifei lightly, and said vaguely in her mouth:

"Forcing the palace is a great crime of rebellion, my sister should wait for Your Majesty to decide!"

Zhao Guifei also knew that she was desperate now, otherwise she would not have gone to find her nemesis, Su Guifei.

Hearing Su Guifei's answer, she had no choice but to beg Chu Hongzhen again, but she couldn't speak again, and Chu Jingxuan, who had been standing in the center of the hall, suddenly shouted at her sadly:

"Mother, don't beg them! Not worth it! ”

When Zhao Guifei heard this, she cried even more, she staggered up, walked to Chu Jingshuo's side with her arms slightly open, and slapped Chu Jingshuo hard:

"What kind of bastard are you talking about? Get down on your knees yet! ”

Chu Jingshuo tilted his face to the side after being slapped, but he didn't get angry, but laughed lowly:

"Mother, you haven't beaten me in years."

Chu Jingxuan didn't even use the word 'son', which really had a bit of the feeling he had when he was a child.

Zhao Guifei's mouth opened, and she stood beside Chu Jingshuo without saying anything.

Her fingers moved, as if she wanted to reach out to touch Chu Jingxuan's face, but she didn't make the next move.

Chu Jingxuan still maintained the action just now, but he reached out and touched his cheek that he had just been beaten:

"The mother concubine wants me to kneel down and admit my mistake, where is the son's mistake?"

Zhao Guifei was stunned, and also followed Chu Jingxuan's words and muttered to herself:

"Yes, what's wrong with you, it's all Bengong's fault!"

Cheng Xiaoxiao has been looking at Chu Jingshuo and Zhao Guifei intently, and Zhao Guifei's tearful begging for mercy just now made her heart feel a little touched.

The rebellion is such a big thing, and it also involves Zhao Guifei as Wenchen's father, and I am afraid that the next three generations will suffer.

Zhao Guifei's seemingly exaggerated behavior should be more of a revelation of her true feelings.

At this time, it seems that it is not easy to maintain the only sobriety to beg for mercy and 'wipe the ass' for the bastard thing committed by his son.

What made Cheng Xiaoxiao even more dumbfounded was still behind, Zhao Guifei suddenly knelt in the center of the hall as she spoke, and she said to Chu Hongzhen very seriously:

"The concubines and ghosts were confused for a while, and forced His Royal Highness King Qing to die, and instructed His Royal Highness King Qing to rebel. and threatened the imperial historian Lord Zhao with a letter, forcing Lord Zhao to rebel together. The concubine deserves death, and please punish Your Majesty! ”

After Zhao Guifei finished speaking, she kowtowed heavily to Chu Hongzhen.

I don't know if I'm afraid that Chu Hongzhen won't want to believe her words, she also added conclusively:

"His Royal Highness King Qing and Lord Zhao have asked their concubines to stop several times, and they have also advised their concubines many times. The concubine not only did not listen to the advice, but coerced and enticed the two of them many times, forcing them to obediently obey the words of the concubine. ”

Chu Hongzhen and Chu Jingxuan looked at Zhao Guifei almost at the same time, Chu Hongzhen frowned and asked:

"Oh? How do you explain the matter of leading troops to force the palace? ”

"They are all instructed by the concubines, and the soldiers are also raised privately by the concubines. Including the orchids in the families of those ministers, they were also selected by the concubines. ”

Zhao Guifei hurriedly spoke, for fear that someone would rob her, and said a lot of words quickly:

"There is also the 'beauty incense', Your Majesty also knows that the nurse of the concubine used to know witchcraft, so the concubine knows how to raise these incense. What else? And those rumors, aren't they? ”

Zhao Guifei seemed to be reminiscing for herself, and she couldn't wait to take all the blame on herself, she shed tears as she spoke, sniffing to maintain a smooth voice:

"Those rumors were also revealed by the concubines to the ministers of the court, and without the concubines in the harem to pass on these news, how could they spread quickly in the court?"

Zhao Guifei is reasonable, the makeup on her face has long been cried, but the red and swollen eyes are so bright.

She looked straight at Chu Hongzhen like this, her gaze was firm and natural.

"It's quite decent, but why did the concubine do this?"

Chu Hongzhen did not clearly say that he believed Zhao Guifei, nor did he say that he did not believe it, on the contrary, he seemed to be a little puzzled by Zhao Guifei's behavior.

Zhao Guifei smiled sadly, she took out the silk handkerchief in her arms, wiped off the rouge gouache on her face little by little, and opened her mouth slowly with a plain white face:

"Your Majesty's question is so interesting, is it possible that the concubine was born to be such a ruthless person?"

She straightened the bun that had been messed up just now, trying to restore her original noble and graceful appearance.

"The concubine is the noble eldest daughter of the family, her father and mother are affectionate, her grandfather and grandmother are spoiled, and the brothers are obedient. Why do you insist on staining those filthy things and doing those filthy things? ”

Zhao Guifei didn't count the broken hair, and went to smooth the wrinkles of the clothes on her body, as if she was performing some pious ritual.

"At that time, Your Majesty, you had not long ascended the throne, and you were unstable in the court. The concubine's family has a huge power and can help His Majesty to stand on a solid foundation, so His Majesty married a concubine. ”

Zhao Guifei suddenly raised her head and smiled at Chu Hongzhen: "The concubines all know." ”

"Not really."

Chu Hongzhen looked at Zhao Guifei and explained with a guilty expression.

The inquiry in his eyes gradually dissipated, and his gaze was deep and long-term, as if he had fallen into some kind of memory.

Zhao Guifei didn't care what Chu Hongzhen said at all, her smile gradually faded:

"But Your Majesty, at that time, the concubines had everything, but they only lost your heart."

As she spoke, the tears on Zhao Guifei's face rushed down again.

She didn't reach out to wipe it away, but just said to herself: "Later, Your Majesty welcomed Concubine Su into the palace, and I knew that in Your Majesty's heart, the concubine was just a chess piece. ”

Chu Hongzhen's fingers moved, and the thin lips that were the same as Chu Jingshuo pursed into a line.

Zhao Guifei suddenly raised her hand and wiped her face, and then looked at Su Guifei with a smile: "Sister Su is very smart, she knows how to weigh the pros and cons, and she also knows how to please Your Majesty." But at the end of the day, she's just a replacement......"

Chu Hongzhen's expression suddenly changed, as if he wanted to stop Zhao Guifei from continuing to speak, but Zhao Guifei stopped talking with interest.

Zhao Guifei's topic ended too strangely, and Cheng Xiaoxiao, who had been listening to the story, didn't understand it.

She wanted to relive it, but she was attracted by the slight noise around her.

When she looked at the source of the sound, she found that Chu Yunshen, who had always had an indifferent face, clenched the wine glass in her hand at some point.

The soft sound just now was nothing else, it was the sound of Chu Yunshen crushing the wine glass.

The wine glass that was split in half was put on the table by Chu Yunshen, and he also recovered his indifferent face in an instant, as if the gaffe just now was just Cheng Xiaoxiao's illusion.

"Why do concubines who are so proud have to endure these hardships in vain?"

Zhao Guifei's voice sounded again, and Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't want to delve into Chu Yunshen's matter anymore, so she just wanted to ask after she went back.

"Your Majesty must think that the concubine is crazy, it has been like this for so many years, why can't you bear it now."

Zhao Guifei suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly, and seemed to be asking herself this question.

"That's because Your Majesty is going to hurt the concubine's child again!"

Zhao Guifei smiled with teary eyes, and she stubbornly raised her head and looked directly into Chu Hongzhen's eyes:

"The concubine no longer has you, does the emperor still want the concubine to lose her son?"

"When did I say that I was going to hurt Shuo'er, Shuo'er is your child and my prince!"

Chu Hongzhen seemed to have listened to Zhao Guifei's words and tried to persuade Zhao Guifei.

His expression was so sincere, there was no trace of a king's arrogance.

"Yes!"

Zhao Guifei's voice suddenly raised a lot, and her voice was sharp, like some sharp weapon scratching the glass:

"Your Majesty is right! Shuo'er is also your prince! ”

The smile on his face slowly widened, and the eyes of Danfeng, who were still full of tears, were full of sarcasm:

"But Your Majesty has many princes, but the concubines only have one child!"
