Chapter 132: Palace Gate Change (2)
When she came this time, even the personal maid was retreated by Ouyang Zhen, not to mention that she didn't bring any of her belongings, and she was even more bottomless in her heart, if it weren't for Ouyang Zhen's continuous comfort, she would have cried all the way.
The carriage was very bumpy, and Lin was so happy that he couldn't help but vomit.
The night breeze whistled, and the curtain of the car door poured in, and after an unknown time, there was suddenly a sound of shouting, mixed with the sound of blades, and Su Yanqing's horsewhip swung more urgently.
Ouyang Zhen closed her eyes, as if she had returned to the ambush on the post road that day, and the lingering smell of blood filled her heart again, and she almost wanted to vomit.
Lin Xiang is well-behaved, she doesn't cry or make trouble, Ouyang Zhen hugged her tightly to her chest, her small body was like a warm fire, comforting her and making her heart gradually settle down.
Suddenly, Su Yanqing shouted: "Sit down!" The long whip in his hand swung violently, and several black shadows rushing in front of him were immediately stopped by him and thrown out.
The horses were a little frightened, neighed, and began to gallop.
Ouyang Zhen's head hit the carriage hard, and he exclaimed. Lin also bumped into his back and was crying mournfully.
Su Yanqing stood on the horse and struggled to control the frightened horses, gradually, the mountain road gradually widened, the carriage became more and more stable, Ouyang Zhen peeked at it, and the big city gate was gradually approaching.
The night was like ink, even the stars in the sky had disappeared, and the silent and silent night was like a monster in the wilderness, opening its big mouth, ready to choose someone to devour.
The curfew in Chujing made the entire Shangjing as quiet as an empty city with no people, and the sound of the rapid car rolling forward, but it seemed to be crushed in the heart, which became more and more unsettling.
Ouyang Zhen turned his head and looked back from outside the swaying car curtain, the huge palace city stood coldly like a cold and lifeless tomb.
She was about to escape from the city, but her heart was still heavy, and a sense of foreboding came over her again.
And the lights at the city gate are shaking, and the figures are longing, how to rush over?
……
In the Chu Palace, the "Yuande Palace" of the Chu Emperor's dormitory was lifeless, and the night wind passed through the main hall, bringing a strange and ominous atmosphere outside.
The marigold glass lamp hangs on the walls on all sides, the candlelight flickers, illuminating the entire inner hall as if it is an illusory realm, and like the underworld, the bright yellow dragon bed is covered with layers of curtains, a bloated body lies on it, coughing from time to time, his chest rises and falls, proving that he is still a living body, and the bronze tripod of the golden dragon beast burns the incense of calming the gods, fluttering and misty, adding to the emptiness.
The hall was silent, and the pins could be heard. Suddenly, there was a hurried sound of slamming the door outside, and the inner prisoner Sun Gonggong, who did not know where to hide in the hall, almost jumped up, but his old body seemed as agile as some kind of animal at this moment.
He opened the corner of the temple door and shouted softly, "Little rabbit, die." The emperor is asleep, if you disturb the emperor, you won't be able to cut off ten heads. ”
The little eunuch who passed the message wiped his cold sweat and stammered: "Slave maid...... The slave and maid can't help it, the queen has to come in, the slave and maid ...... The slave and maid can't stop it. ”
As he was talking, the palace lanterns that moved from afar were all the way, and he could almost see the golden phoenix crown shining with a compelling cold light under the lamplight.
The cold light flashed in Grandpa Sun's eyes, and he waved away the little eunuch with a cold face.
The group walked quickly, and in the blink of an eye they had reached the gate of the temple.
Father-in-law Sun knelt down to greet him and said, "The queen is a thousand years old, the emperor has drunk the decoction and is lying down to rest." The emperor said, no one will be seen tonight. Please go back. ”
The queen didn't look at him, and said coldly: "There is an urgent matter in the palace to discuss with the emperor, and you can see it if you don't see it." ”
Sun Gonggong stood up and blocked the door with suppressed anger in his feminine voice: "The emperor has an order, I won't see anyone tonight, please go back to the palace to rest." ”
The queen raised her eyes, and slapped him firmly so that he staggered to the ground: "Did the palace tell you to get up?" Damn slave, this palace wants to see the emperor, and you dare to stop it, you don't want to live?! ”
Before Grandpa Sun could struggle, the attendants on the left and right sides of the queen had already swarmed and led him to hold it down, and the rest were busy opening the palace door to let her in.
The heavy door of the temple opened quickly, bringing a strong smell of medicine, and the soothing aroma could not be concealed, only making people feel disgusting.
The queen covered her mouth and nose, her eyes showing extreme disgust, but she stepped in anyway.
The opening of the door of the temple brought the fresh coolness of the night, and the people on the dragon collapsed coughing more and more violently, one by one, as if they were about to cough out all their hearts.
"Who's coming, Queen?" Emperor Chu's old voice came, tired and helpless.
"The concubine knocks on the emperor." The queen lowered her body slightly, and said slowly, and the long phoenix dress dragged away, with an indescribable grace and luxury.
She walked to the couch, lowered her head, and looked at Emperor Chu's face carefully. Suddenly, he said softly: "How does the emperor feel about his body?" Can I ask the doctor for another treatment? ”
"No need...... I know this disease in my heart. Emperor Chu closed his eyes and said slowly: "Is there anything important for the queen to break in?" ”
"Your Majesty, can't the concubines come to see the emperor if they don't have anything important? Or is what the emperor wants to see is a virtuous concubine, not a concubine? The queen smeared rouge, and her bright red lips pulled out a strange smile, but her voice became softer and softer.
"Ahem...... You came here so late, didn't you just want to see if my health is good, and I can survive tomorrow and the day after tomorrow,...... Isn't it? Emperor Chu finally opened his eyes, and a trace of pain flashed in his cloudy old eyes.
When the queen heard this, she half-hid her face, as if she was wronged: "Does the emperor treat his concubines like this?" The emperor and his concubines have been married for more than 20 years, and in the end, does the emperor really no longer like his concubines and no longer believe in his concubines? As he spoke, his shoulders shook as if he were crying.
Emperor Chu let out a long sigh and struggled to prop up half of his body: "If you had cared about me, you wouldn't have come now." I know that with your temperament, you will never be able to endure tomorrow. You're afraid...... I'm afraid that if I suddenly make a holy decree, all your hard work will be wasted, right? ”
When the queen heard this, she slowly put down her long sleeves that were half-covered, and there was no trace of sadness on her delicate makeup. Her slender and charming eyes showed bitter hatred, staring at his old face.
"Yes! The concubine couldn't help it, the concubine couldn't help but come to see the emperor, for fear that the emperor would be seriously ill and confused, so she would send our great Chu country to the hands of that cheap woman, let her son become the prince, and let her trample the palace on the soles of her feet! ”
