Chapter 117: Concubine Wan is in the scheme
Emperor Yun was originally dealing with government affairs in the imperial study, but suddenly heard a report that it was Concubine Wan who had kidnapped the queen's mother.
Hurried to the cold palace, and when he saw the bleeding neck of Empress Chu, he was instantly furious.
"What are you doing, don't you let go of the queen quickly!"
When Concubine Wan Guifei saw Emperor Yun coming, she was overjoyed, and immediately threw down the hairpin in her hand and threw herself in front of Emperor Yun.
"Your Majesty, you are finally here, please be the master of the concubine, the queen wants to kill the concubine!"
"Mother, are you alright?" Hong Feng hurriedly stepped forward to support Queen Chu.
Empress Chu shook her head and looked at the crying Concubine Wan, "Concubine Wan's ability to sue the wicked first is really jaw-dropping, just now it was obvious that you were going to kill the palace." ”
Emperor Yun also frowned, "You are so bold, you dare to hold the queen hostage!" ”
"Please also ask the emperor to see clearly, it is the queen's mother who is ruthless and wants to kill the concubine, and the concubine really has no choice, so she will make this decision and wait for the emperor to come." Concubine Wan cried so much that it rained, "If it weren't for the concubine's urgency and wisdom and the hostage of the queen's mother, I'm afraid that what the emperor saw now would be the corpse of the concubine." ”
"Heh, this palace wants to kill you?" Empress Chu sneered, "Good and dignified, why did this palace kill you, don't say that you have been beaten into the cold palace, even if you showed off your power in front of this palace before, how could this palace ever care!" ”
"Your Majesty, what the concubine said is true, and the queen is just denying it now. She was afraid that after the Dongyang envoy left, the concubine would be released from the cold palace, so she made the first move and wanted to poison the concubine! By the way, the poisonous wine and food are still in the cold palace, and if the emperor doesn't believe it, he can send someone to check it. ”
"Come on, let's take a look." Emperor Yun looked at Queen Chu, he did show a little bit of wanting to let Concubine Wan go in front of the queen before, could it be that the queen really had a murderous intent in her heart?
Soon, a imperial doctor came to inspect the wine and food, and Concubine Wan looked at Queen Chu with a smug smile on her face.
Seeing the imperial doctor come out, Concubine Wan immediately asked, "What is the result?" ”
The imperial physician arched his hand, "Emperor Qiqi, Weichen has already checked them one by one, and there is no poison in the wine and food." ”
"How is that possible!" The expression on Concubine Wan's face froze, "The queen, she clearly wanted to poison me just now." ”
"Concubine Wan's acting is really good enough." Empress Chu's expression was cold, "Your Majesty, the concubine just wanted to visit Concubine Wan today, and kindly sent wine and food, but she didn't expect to be not only held hostage by her, but also slandered by her and wanted to poison people, and I hope that the emperor can make decisions for the concubine." ”
"Just now, it was clear that you wanted to poison me, how could you ......" Halfway through the words, Concubine Wan was suddenly stunned, and the whole person understood.
"I see, you're trying to frame me, you designed it!"
Concubine Wan immediately looked at Emperor Yun, "Your Majesty, this is all the poison of the queen's mother, she deceived the concubine first, and the leeks were poisonous, which caused the concubines to hold her hostage, and then gave the concubines an charge of holding the queen hostage." This kind of thinking is really vicious, ask the emperor to be the master of the concubines! ”
"It's just a joke, not to mention that Concubine Wan is already in the cold palace now, if the queen really wants to harm you, you don't have to come in person at all. What's more, according to what Concubine Wan just said, isn't the queen taking her own life at risk. If Concubine Wan Guifei jumped over the wall in a hurry and really killed the queen's mother, what should you do? Red Maple spoke angrily.
"That's right, Your Majesty, do you really believe Concubine Wan's words? Think the concubine will risk her life and let Concubine Wan be charged with holding the queen hostage? Empress Chu's tone was very cold, mixed with a bit of ridicule and grievances.
"Your Majesty, the concubine really didn't lie, the queen knew that the concubine's brother had made a meritorious service, and she also knew that the emperor would immediately issue an order to release the concubine from the cold palace in a few days, she ......"
"Who told you that I had decided to release you from the cold palace?" Emperor Yun interrupted Concubine Wan's words unhappily, "You have made all kinds of big mistakes before, even if your brother has made meritorious contributions, I have indeed moved to forgive you, but everything has not yet been decided, let alone I will make an order soon!" ”
Concubine Wan was stunned, just now Empress Chu clearly said that the emperor had decided to release her from the cold palace, was it a lie to her?
In an instant, Concubine Wan completely understood, Queen Chu must have been worried that the emperor would really order her to be released from the cold palace, so she would make such a show today to lure her to make a mistake.
"Your Majesty, the concubine really knows that she is wrong, please see that the concubine's brother is loyal to the country and has made so many contributions, just spare the concubine this time!"
"You were originally wrong, but you didn't repent in this cold palace, and today you are holding the queen hostage, such a big mistake, how can I still let you out of the cold palace!" Emperor Yun looked at Concubine Wan coldly.
He did hesitate before, but Concubine Wan's move today was too confused, if she was released, it wouldn't be a slap in the queen's face!
"Your Majesty, all this is the queen's trick. You can't be fooled! Concubine Wan panicked, "All of this is her calculating concubines, and it's all her design!" ”
"The queen has presided over the harem for so many years, and she has never taken the initiative to calculate others, not to mention that now that you have been beaten into the cold palace, how can she risk her life to make a bet!"
"The Emperor's ......"
Concubine Wan still wanted to continue to plead, but Emperor Yun obviously didn't give her a chance, and sent someone to bring Concubine Wan back into the room of the cold palace.
"Queen, why did you come to this cold palace today?" Although Emperor Yun believed that this matter had nothing to do with Empress Chu, it was still a little strange that she suddenly appeared in this cold palace today.
"Is the emperor suspicious of his concubines?" Empress Chu looked into Emperor Yun's eyes and smiled bitterly.
"Of course not, it's just that I'm a little curious." Emperor Yun looked away and softened his tone to speak.
"The concubines came here today because of the emperor."
"Because of me? What do you mean by that? ”
"What the emperor said in the palace of the concubines a few days ago, the concubines understood, and the emperor wanted to release Concubine Wan, but the concubines had to worry about the harem after Wang Guifei left the cold palace, because of the previous incidents, the harem made waves again. The concubine was really tired, so she brought wine and food today, wanting to reconcile with Concubine Wan, and saving the concubine from being involved in all kinds of twists and turns after the emperor released Concubine Wan. ”
The wry smile on Empress Chu's face became a little more obvious, and there was a hint of tiredness in her tone.
"Empress, you ......" Emperor Yun heard this, his heart was mixed, "You are the queen, the lord of the six palaces, why take the initiative to come and reconcile with her." ”
"But Concubine Wan is the emperor's sweetheart after all, if it weren't for the conclusive evidence this time, presumably the emperor would not have sent her to the cold palace. The concubines are really tired, and they really don't have the confidence to gamble on the emperor's trust in the future. ”
