Chapter 226: Cold Spring Night (1)
The guards on both sides fell to their knees.
Surprise flashed in Ouyang Zhen's eyes, and he quickly knelt down.
The queen walked very fast, and in a short time came to her. A strong smell of medicine spread on her body, and Ouyang Zhen hurriedly said: "The queen mother is a thousand years old, a thousand years old." Concubine ......"
Before she finished speaking, suddenly the queen sneered, leaned over and "snapped", and slapped her in the face: "You came just in time, I haven't gone to settle accounts with you yet, you sent it to the door by yourself." She slapped her very hard, and five paw prints suddenly appeared on Ouyang Zhen's snow-white face.
Ouyang Zhen was beaten by her, and there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. She looked up at her in surprise. Under the bright and extinguished palace lights, the queen's face was filled with great anger, and she looked very hideous.
Wan Hui exclaimed, and hurriedly knelt in front of Ouyang Zhen, and kept kowtowing to the queen: "The queen spares her life, the queen, Fangyi Niangniang is just worried about the emperor's injury, so I came here in the middle of the night, please ask the queen to see my family's loyalty......"
Before she finished speaking, the queen raised her foot, kicked Wan Hui and said angrily: "Get out!" Just! Come on, drag her down and beat her! ”
Ouyang Zhen's heart suddenly fell into the abyss when she heard this, and seeing that the guards beside the queen dragged Wan Hui down fiercely, she screamed and hurriedly knelt down in front of the queen: "Queen Mother, the concubine is wrong...... Queen Mother...... If you want to punish the concubine, don't beat her, don't beat her, don't beat her......"
At this time, Wan Hui had already been erected, and the guards on both sides raised their scabbards and laid them down on the spot.
Wan Hui only felt that it was like pumping her muscles and bones, and she couldn't help but cry out. Ouyang Zhen was shocked, and then saw that the queen's face was expressionless, she had to stagger and pounce on Wan Hui, shouting: "Queen Mother, if you want to beat, kill the concubine, the concubine is sorry for the emperor, she can only die to apologize......"
When the guard saw her pounce, he had to stop his movements.
Ouyang Zhen was full of tears, and couldn't help crying, she was too stupid and stupid...... This time, she actually hurt Aunt Wanhui, who was the best for herself. Now the emperor is still injured, the situation is not clear, the entire harem is the queen's world, and he can only come to find death.
Wan Hui was beaten a few times, only to feel that her soul was about to fly away, and her body was in pain, and she couldn't say a word anymore.
The queen didn't speak, and in front of the wide hall, there was only Ouyang Zhen's terrible cry, one by one. The queen waited for her to cry almost, and then slowly stepped forward and sneered: "How about it, Rou Fangyi Niangniang, it's enough to go to the 'Jingguo Temple' for such a big battle, right?" After this, I will call you arrogant, and see how long you are arrogant! Now if the emperor has three long and two short, you can wait for the three-foot white silk hanging beam to commit suicide. Hmph, don't say that you are pregnant with the dragon seed, even if you have a gold medal for avoiding death, you will die an ugly death in the future. ”
Ouyang Zhen looked through her teary eyes, the queen's face was very distorted, she shivered all her life, she actually wanted to die by herself!!
Her mind was racing, and she quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "Queen Mother Mingjian, the concubine went to 'Jingguo Temple' just to ask for blessings and didn't dare to think about him...... The queen mother is a concubine, who has the courage to have the slightest disrespect for the mother. Niangniang, please see, the concubine went to ask Rongde Zen Master to add blessings and longevity to Niangniang, and Rongde Zen Master also ordered the concubine to dedicate the Buddha beads in his hand to Niangniang...... The Queen, please see ......"
Ouyang Zhen shook the rope, took out the string of Buddhist beads from his arms, and put his hands on the top of his head. God willing, this Buddha bead was not lost, and it was still in the hidden bag in his arms.
When the queen heard what she said, she couldn't help but "snort" and took the Buddha beads in Ouyang Zhen's hand to look at it. Under the dim palace lamp, the string of beads that would not have shone was faintly shining, and it also exuded a peaceful atmosphere.
The anger between the queen's eyebrows faded a little, she looked down and saw Ouyang Zhen trembling all over, thinking that she was very scared, and then thought that if Chu Huotian woke up and saw that something had happened to her, then what if she was to blame......
She thought about it, although she was unwilling but couldn't, and suddenly sneered: "In this case, I will spare the minions below you when I think of you sincerely...... But...... Aren't you worried about the emperor, you just kneel here and pray for the emperor, the longer you kneel, the more sincere your heart will be, and you will praise your loyalty to the emperor another day. ”
After she finished speaking, she sneered a few times and stared at Ouyang Zhen's face.
Ouyang Zhen trembled, and when he saw that she had spared Wan Hui, he had to say: "Yes, the concubine will definitely pray for the emperor to recite Buddhist scriptures." With that, he kowtowed heavily.
When the queen saw that she answered, she smiled coldly, turned around and left. The cold night wind of April blew again, and the cold penetrated the bone marrow.
When Ouyang Zhen saw her leaving, he hurriedly helped Wan Hui up and ordered the frightened palace maids to quickly carry her back to treat her injuries. Seeing them gone, he knelt on the cold ground and slowly recited the Buddhist scriptures with tears in his eyes.
In the dark night, I don't know how many pairs of eyes were staring at her, so she could only read and read......
The April day in Chudi was still cold, not to mention that in the middle of the night, although Ouyang Zhen had a cloak on her body, the chill from her knees still made her tremble.
But her heart gradually calmed down at this moment. What makes the queen so angry? Would it be better for Chu Huotian to wake up and ask for the crime than to punish her? Is it because Chu Huotian was injured because of her?
But one thing is already clear, the queen can no longer tolerate her presence.
Ouyang Zhen shuddered, closed his eyes, and kept reading in his mouth. The Buddha is talking about no sorrow and no joy, no love and no hatred, but now she clearly only has that hatred in her heart.
It was only at this time that she really understood that she did not have the status and power of the queen in the Chu Palace, and she was like the most humble grass, trampled in the soil by her, and she could never turn over.
If you can let her survive tonight, if you can let her survive tonight...... Ouyang Zhen watched steadily at his gradually trembling, numb knees little by little.
Swear by the sky! Swear by the sky!
One day, she wants to let the queen know that she Ouyang Zhen is not the fish and meat that waited for her to slaughter!
……
"Queen Mother......" called softly and carefully, waking up the queen who was napping with one hand on her jaw. The queen raised her eyes to see that it was Ziye, the personal palace maid beside her.
She rubbed the corners of her forehead, and her face was deeply tired: "What's wrong?" But has the emperor woken up? ”
Ziye knelt down in front of her and said cautiously: "The emperor is not sleeping well, just calling a person's name......" She said carefully, constantly looking at the queen's face.
The queen snorted graciously: "So what's the matter?" Just feed the emperor some water, what does the imperial doctor say? ”
