Chapter 49: Confrontation in the main hall

Zhang Erzhen's hearing has always been amazing, although the emperor's voice is very small, the words "Qin Tianjian" and "Descending Porphyry" still drilled into Zhang Erzhen's ears, Zhang Erzhen thought of Bai Ruo's words that day, "Gu Xianqingfeng returns, Bliss Longbin returns to heaven", what does this sentence mean?

Zhu Youzhu stood up, knelt in front of the emperor with his hands in fists, and said slowly in a clear voice: "Before the big sacrifice, Master Bao Tianshi predicted that there would be a catastrophe in the palace. However, the great sacrifice involves all the people in the world and the dragon body of the father must be carried out, so it must not be interrupted, the big sacrifice ended smoothly, and the journey back to the palace was also smooth, but after returning to the palace, the imperial concubine had an accident, and the sons and daughters had the courage to ask the father to think deeply about the words of the heavenly master. ”

A look of pain and struggle appeared on the emperor's face, and after a moment of fierceness, he was stunned, "Call Master Bao Tianshi to me." The emperor thought of the tragic situation when his concubine died, and looked at Zhang Erzhen's gaze as if he had been quenched with poison, but when he thought of his body again, he became clearer for a moment. Zhang Erzhen saw the unpredictability on the emperor's face, and also understood Zhu Youji's plan, the people in this palace are really shrewd and meticulous and scary, and a tight Luomi net makes her little worm unable to struggle in the deep well of conspiracy, she feels that she can't be good today.

Bao Tianshi really lived up to his name, a strange and ugly black face was embedded with a pair of extremely large eyes, and Bao Tian's big mouth showed a mouthful of white teeth, Zhang Erzhen just glanced sideways at Bao Tianshi and was taken aback by his shocking appearance, sure enough, people can't look good, such a heavenly master is really very deceptive. The emperor stared at Bao Tianshi for a moment, but Bao Tianshi stood very calmly, wearing a gray robe with a long willow beard, giving people the feeling of a fluttering Taiyi real person. He held an ebony and white-bearded Buddha dust in one hand, rested on the bright yellow gourd on his waist with the other, and stood on Zhang Erzhen's side like a mountain, Zhang Erzhen guessed that he was about one meter nine tall.

"Master Bao, the person who appeared on the celestial phenomenon is her?Why did the imperial concubine suffer this catastrophe, tell me, is it through this experience, my ...... Can it be done?"

A touch of disdain and ridicule appeared at the corner of Zhu Youji's mouth, Zhang Erzhen saw it, she hurriedly lowered her head, and listened to Bao Tianshi's serious words: "A few months ago, the emperor's dragon body was abnormal, and Xiaodao began to observe the celestial phenomena and divination hexagrams, the long stars hit the moon, the dark dawn was faint, and there was a faint trend of the earthquake in Tai'an Prefecture that year. Since ancient times, the Ying confusion and guarding the heart are all from the call of the emperor, Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Han Cheng are all ruined, Xiaodao explained to the emperor the danger, Qin Tianjian after the hexagram divination to crack the method, that is, the great sacrifice is carried out smoothly, and the harem will be robbed, the emperor can be healthy and smooth. The imperial concubine is not dead, but went to the Western Heaven Elysium for the emperor, the emperor should not be sad, the imperial concubine has made great contributions. Congratulations to the emperor on the fortune of the country, and the immortal blessing will be enjoyed forever!"

After a lot of nonsense, Zhang Erzhen applauded Bao Tianshi from the bottom of her heart.

After listening to Bao Tianshi's words, the emperor nodded slowly, his deep eyes shot a sharp light, he looked at Zhang Erzhen and asked, "Tell me, why did you kill the imperial concubine? Was it a long-term plan, or a whim?"

Although the emperor is selfish and ruthless, and now he is addicted to pedantic, but his IQ is still online, Zhang Erzhen did not dare to fool him at will, and replied honestly: "Erchen has always lived in seclusion, rarely goes out of the East Palace, and it is the first time to take the initiative to go to Fengzao Palace." That day, for some reason, there was a force in the dark that drove the ministers to visit the imperial concubine. Erchen was frightened, but he still went to see the imperial concubine who was lingering on the sickbed. At that time, the imperial concubine's face was as pink as a young girl, and the princess was shocked and broke the glass cup on the table, the imperial concubine was very angry, and she didn't know where to get a knife to kill the son, the princess was shocked, and when the son-chan reacted, the imperial concubine had fallen in a pool of blood...... The emperor has always been timid, why would he have the courage to kill people......" Zhang Erzhen's eyes slowly turned red, that scene was really shocking, she felt that she would remember the white hair of Wan Guifei who was dyed red by blood and the cry of Wan Guifei before she died.

Zhang Erzhen's body shook uncontrollably, and her slender little body looked so helpless in the palace. Zhu Youzhu happened to see Zhang Erzhen on his side, and his heart felt as if he was blocked, and he said to the emperor: "Father, do you still remember the earthquake many years ago? When Erchen was ordered to go to Tai'an Prefecture, he saw Zhang Erzhen, who was only 12 years old at the time, and she was carrying food and clothes with her housekeepers and servants, regardless of the epidemic and danger in the disaster area. At that time, Qin Tianjian had said early on that there would be nobles to help him in natural disasters, and now that he thinks about it, will that nobleman be Concubine Zhen? Concubine Zhen has always been timid, but if a servant is gone, she will be sad for a long time, where does she have the courage to kill the imperial concubine? Why did she want to kill the imperial concubine? Father Emperor Mingjian!"

While gently helping the emperor to calm down, Queen Wang said: "Your Majesty, what Concubine Zhen said is the truth. On that day, the concubine and Concubine Shao's sister took Concubine Zhen to visit the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine suddenly went crazy, and shouted while stabbing at Concubine Zhen, and the concubine was so frightened that she almost fainted. The concubine knew what kind of person the imperial concubine was, and she couldn't believe that such a crazy person was the imperial concubine. The concubine didn't notice it for a while...... If you didn't have Zhang Erzhen by your side at that time, and you happened to enter the imperial concubine's room at that time, wouldn't you ...... The concubine was terrified when she thought about it, was all this arranged by God, Zhang Erzhen also saved you...... "Queen Wang played a very good acting role, frightened, happy, sad, and panicked emotions were vividly expressed on her face one by one, she even fell on the emperor's knees, crying out in grief, and the suppressed voice flowed out of her closed mouth.

Zhang Erzhen silently shed tears, raised his head and looked at the emperor to exonerate himself: "Erchen doesn't dare to invite credit, it is all arranged by God in the dark, Erchen was only arranged by God to do what he should do at the right time, the emperor is the pride of heaven and the person who is blessed by God." The sons were frightened, and the sons blamed themselves very much, but the imperial concubine's state at that time did not allow the sons to think too much......"

The emperor pinched the Buddha beads again, and put his left hand on the bright yellow dragon robe and pinched his fingers. Zhu Youzhu watched the back of the emperor's hand gradually become green, knowing that this was a precursor to his father's anger, and took the first step and said: "Father, Qin Tianjian is for the sake of the common people in the world, for the sake of his father, doesn't my father know the omen of Ying's confusion and guarding his heart? ”

“...... Hehe, what you said is true, but the death of the imperial concubine was done by her. If I don't act, how can the imperial concubine feel at ease? Qin Tianjian divined the celestial phenomena, and since he could save me from a calamity, why couldn't he avoid the calamity of the imperial concubine? Zhang Erzhen's death crime can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped, and he will immediately press to the high wall of Fengyang, and he will not be able to come out unless he is summoned. ”

Zhu Youzhu exclaimed: "Father, what is the Fengyang high wall, she is still a woman!"

"Prince, don't you understand what I said?" the emperor smiled after saying gloomily, "My beloved concubine is gone, Prince, what do you think?"

Zhu Youji's nails sank deep into the palm of his hand, and blood dripped to the ground, and after a long time, Zhu Youzhu buckled his head and said, "Erchen...... Compliance. ”

The words "Fengyang High Wall" are very unfamiliar to Zhang Erzhen, but the two words Fengyang Comrade Zhang Erzhen is very familiar, "Anhui Fengyang", Zhang Erzhen, who was kneeling on the ground, raised her head suddenly, the disbelief in her eyes was deeply pierced into Zhu Youzhen's eyes, Queen Wang grabbed the dragon robe with one hand trembling, wanted to speak but didn't say it, turned her head to look at Zhang Erzhen, her eyes were full of determination and coldness, she said what she could say, the emperor insisted on this, but she didn't blame her.

Bao Tianshi repeatedly wore a long beard, looked at Zhu Youzhu sideways, and said to the emperor: "The emperor thinks twice, the great calamity has passed, the sky is stable, and it is time for amnesty." ”

"I am desperate, Qin Tianjian failed to save the life of the imperial concubine, and the tragic death of the imperial concubine is also for the common people in the world, Zhang Erzhen can go to the Fengyang high wall to pray for the imperial concubine for the rest of his life is also a merit, Bao Tianshi, can I say right?" The emperor slowly looked at Zhang Erzhen, his eyes as sharp as a hook were tentative and determined, Zhang Erzhen actually began to break out in a cold sweat, the emperor's vicissitudes and ruthless eyes seemed to have traveled far when looking at her, and looked behind her fixedly, at that moment, Zhang Erzhen replied: "Erchen...... Compliance. ”

Originally...... Wan Guifei's death is not the end, but the beginning of a new nightmare...... This dark beginning is an insurmountable obstacle for Zhu Youji, for Zhang Erzhen, and for many people. At that moment, Zhang Erzhen finally realized the allure of the monstrous power, if she complained about Zhu Youji's ruthlessness and calculation before, she suddenly understood at that moment. The only umbrella that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can have who grew up in lovelessness and calculation is this supreme throne and power.

Since ancient times, it has been like this, the one who becomes a king and loses a king, and who can ascend the throne with a smile is the writer of history.

The emperor has not recovered from a serious illness but is still a man of action, quite the courage of the cross-horse southern war, and immediately called Yao Yuan, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, with a large team of people to personally watch over him, and sent the prince's side concubine Zhang Erzhen into the Jing'an Temple outside the palace to pray for the imperial concubine, and sent to the Fengyang high wall ten days later, and was not allowed to return to Beijing for life!

The emperor stood with his hands behind his back, watching the emaciated Concubine Zhen being pressed out of the hall by the soldiers in armor, Zhu Youzhu knelt on the ground for a long time and did not get up, did his hand hurt? It didn't hurt, it didn't hurt compared to the pain in his heart as if it had been dug up. He tried his best to restrain his trembling, he was afraid that as soon as he raised his head, he wanted to strangle the seemingly tall man in front of him, he was afraid that he would hurt Zhen Zhen as soon as he made a move, he just lowered his head, his long hair fell to the ground, and he couldn't hear the sound for a long, long time, until the Imperial Forest Army left the main hall, and he heard the emperor's hoarse and weak voice: "Prince, there are many beauties, this draft, I will pick a few more for you." Queen, help me to sit in Fengzao Palace, the imperial concubine is about to call me, I want to go and see. Master Bao, you should step down too...... This time, it can be regarded as a credit and a demerit. ”

Zhu Youzhu responded, a disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, watching the emperor's feet leave his field of vision, and the group sent the emperor and the queen away, Bao Tianshi looked at Zhu Youji, Zhu Youzhu slowly shook his head, and Bao Tianshi also withdrew, when only Zhu Youzhu was left in the hall, the fierceness in his eyes gradually thickened, this confused and old emperor is simply a disaster in this world!
