054 Nourishing the Heart Palace, killing the father and forcing the king
Emperor Xuande grabbed the edge of the bed with both hands, desperately stabilized his violently shaking body, and couldn't help but regret it: "At the beginning, I took into account your young age, so I showed mercy and spared the lives of your mother and son. ”
Wen Xuan's dark eyes were always filled with a cold chill, his gaze indifferently swept over the excited Emperor Xuande, and the corners of his mouth curled up with a hint of ridicule: "You will show mercy to your subordinates, it does not mean that you are a compassionate heart, that year you issued an edict to hang the queen, and demoted the eldest brother who had just become the prince to a concubine, and was imprisoned to death. ”
Emperor Xuande's face changed, and after a while, he closed his eyelids and sighed lightly, as if he had filtered out a bit of guilt.
"Back then, I really didn't have anything to do with you!" As he spoke, he slowly opened his two deep-set eyes, and in his cloudy dark gray eyes, there was deep and sad: "But then I didn't make you the king and knight, what are you not satisfied with?" ”
"Title the king and knight, sneer!" Wen Xuan's eyes crossed the corners of his eyes with sarcasm, and he said contemptuously: "After the crown prince is deposed, I should be the prince of the crown prince, but you are bent on making the fourth brother the prince, so you have repeatedly connived at the concubine Xian to harm our mother and son, and the tiger poison does not eat the child, and you, the faint king, do not miss the relationship between father and son at all."
If it weren't for the fact that I have forbearance and retreat everywhere over the years, so that you and Concubine Xian have eliminated their vigilance, would your old man still use the prince to compensate me?
Hmph, it's not so much to compensate for me, but to compensate for the guilt in your heart and the guilt for your eldest brother, mother and son! ”
Emperor Xuande was told by Wen Xuan about the central matter, and his face was ashamed for a while, Concubine Hui saw this, and immediately interrupted Wen Xuan, her eyes fell on Emperor Xuande's old body obsessively, and she persuaded in a soft voice: "Your father and son don't quarrel, the matter has come to this, the mourning family has an idea of both, as long as the emperor is willing to edict Xuan'er as the new emperor, the mourning family will order Xuan'er to leave you alive, and officially canonize you as the emperor, and will accompany you to spend your old age in Cining Palace. ”
Concubine Hui came from Xichu and her relatives thousands of miles away, she was excluded and neglected, hated for so many years, and finally could trample on the man who hurt her, but suddenly found that the endless hatred in her heart had turned into a thousand strands of love, when she saw that the man she longed for was no longer the unattainable emperor of the past, calling for wind and rain, she germinated the idea of keeping him by her side and monopolizing the grace, but unexpectedly in exchange for Emperor Xuande's contempt and rejection!
"Humph!" Emperor Xuande looked at him coldly, and said ruthlessly: "Concubine Hui, don't be delusional, I will not set up a person with half of the blood of Western Chu to be the monarch of my Dajin Dynasty, Xuan'er He is not only not of the right blood, but also treacherous and obedient, you are even more ruthless and vicious, I would rather die, than hand over the Jiangshan Sheji to your mother and son!" ”
"Why? Why would you rather die than accept our mother and son? Concubine Hui suddenly became a little hysterical, clutching her chest and crying bitterly: "You named me to come and kiss, even if I did something wrong when I was young, but the cold treatment and torture in the past ten years are not enough for me to endure?" ”
Emperor Xuande turned his face impatiently, and seemed to be very disgusted with Concubine Hui's face. "When I ascended the throne at a young age, the foundation was unstable, external worries and internal troubles, marrying you was just to get the help of Xichu's soldiers and horses, originally I still had a trace of guilt for you at that time, so I treated you differently from other concubines, but you are a femme fatale, not only united the queen to separate the feelings of me and Shen Rou, but also after Xian'er entered the palace, she was embarrassed everywhere, I Nian did not give you death by the grace of the soldiers, and also retained your position, which is already a great grace!"
Concubine Hui's face turned blue and white when she heard this, her eyes looked at him resentfully, and after a long time, she gritted her teeth and asked, "The mourning family is asking you once, are you willing or unwilling?" ”
Emperor Xuande's eyes were angry, and he said: "I will not issue an edict, even if you have completely controlled the imperial city, even if this rebel son will ascend the throne in the future, it will always be a chaotic minister and thief who kills his father and forces the king, and plots to usurp the throne. ”
The dying voice echoed in the silent empty hall, and the air suddenly became strangely terrifying, and after a long time, Wen Xuan finally let out a bloodthirsty and cruel sneer: "Li Yu, the emperor is talking nonsense, why don't you bring his old man's medicine quickly!" ”
"Wow!" Li Yu walked out from behind the golden curtain with his head down, came to Emperor Xuande and knelt down, and respectfully offered a gold-painted porcelain bowl with both hands, which contained a bowl full of black medicine, exuding a sour and bitter smell.
"The slave respectfully asks the Emperor to use medicine!" Li Yu buried his head lower as he spoke, and he didn't dare to look at Emperor Xuande's face with a weak heart.
"Good slave, it's a shame that you still grew up beside me since you were a child, it's really good, this is the person I have favored for many years and made it, haha......" Emperor Xuande sneered a few times with tears in his eyes, and reached out to take the bowl of medicine.
But just when his fingertips were about to touch the edge of the bowl, he was suddenly stopped by Wen Xuan: "Wait!" ”
Suddenly, everyone looked at Wen Xuan in surprise, thinking that his conscience had found that his heart was soft-hearted when he thought of the relationship between father and son, but everyone was wrong!
I saw him standing with his hands in his hands, half-squinting his eyes, brushing aside Ming Shen who was silent in the corner, and the corners of his lips raised wantonly: "Concubine Shen, as a daughter-in-law, don't hurry up to be filial to your father, after tonight, there will be no chance!" ”
When Ming Shen heard this, his body and mind were terrified, and he quietly raised his eyes to look at him, but he seemed to be aware of it, so he simply turned his back directly, leaving her with a stiff and resolute back.
Seeing this, Ming Shen couldn't help but sigh in his heart, sure enough, he would be willing to drag her into the water, it seems that this charge of killing the king, he has to be forced to deduct it on the head of the Nalan family to be finished!
Anyway, now that the situation is pressing, even if she knows that this is a trap he has set for her and the Nalan family, she has to drill into it, if she doesn't give this bowl of deadly medicine to Emperor Xuande, then she and her unborn child are likely to die in front of the emperor who is at the end of the hero.
So, Ming Shen no longer hesitated to step forward, took the medicine bowl from Li Yu's hand, slowly knelt down in front of Emperor Xuande's bed, and bowed his head to offer medicine: "The daughter-in-law Nalan respectfully asks my father to use medicine!" ”
Emperor Xuande glanced at Ming Shen who was kneeling under the bed with disdain, and his cloudy eyes suddenly converged and fixed on the night pearl pendant with concentric knots on her waist.
He was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, laughing wildly and wantonly. "The cycle of cause and effect, retribution is not happy, it's not that you don't report it, the time has not come, Huyan Jueluo family can actually have a daughter-in-law like you, it can be regarded as half a blessing and a curse, in short, with you to send me on my last journey, I am also a blind eye!"
Ming Shen lifted his eyes and looked at the heroic emperor in puzzlement, only to see that he drank the bowl of poison without hesitation, spit blood from his mouth and fell on the dragon couch, and the gold-painted porcelain bowl fell from his prostrated hand!
With a sharp sound of broken porcelain, Emperor Xuande's revenge in his life, his pride and domineering in the world, and his deep attachment to Shen Rou all ended the moment he closed his eyes, and his soul returned to the loess, and his once brilliant political achievements and mean life finally turned into a few pages of thin yellow paper and went down in history!
Ming Shen slumped to the ground, like a ragdoll that had lost his life, staring at his hands that killed the monarch in a daze, his face was like a gloomy dark cloud, getting denser and denser.
Although she had used a knife against Jin Yanjiao before, it was just to take revenge, and Emperor Xuande was so innocent? But in order to protect herself, she killed the killer, what kind of face should she face Wen Hao's questioning and investigation in the future?
