699 Betrayal (Second Shift)
,
Anping had just received the good news of the great victory in the south, so he temporarily decided to enter the palace.
Duanmu just pursed his lips and smiled, his eyebrows and eyes curved like a crescent moon.
It's been a good year, and it's been a lot of happy events.
An Ping's bright smile deepened on her face, the more she looked at the little girl, the more cute she became, she gently rubbed the top of her soft hair, and sighed in her heart: It seems that this is just a blink of an eye, and the little girl who used to be like glutinous rice dumplings has grown into a big girl, and she is about to die.
An Ping said solemnly: "Fei'er, if Ah Yan's kid can't come back before you and Lu, this palace will train him well for you." ”
Count the days, there are still seven months before the little girl and Lu, it should be in time!
When Ah Yan comes back, he can handle family affairs for them.
The more An Ping thought about it, the more she felt a little impatient, thinking that she had to prepare a big gift for the little girl's gift.
By the way, she also had to write to remind Ah Yan to prepare a gift for the little girl, and it is a once-in-a-lifetime event like getting married, so she can't be lazy.
Duanmu Fei was also counting the time with his fingers, and said in his heart: There are still seven months before he and Lu, so if you calculate it, the cloak should still be in time. Then, she still embroidered the peacock, the peacock is very good-looking, so she doesn't have to worry about changing other patterns.
Duanmu Fei silently decided that she still had a relationship with "Peacock".
Isn't it just a peacock, she doesn't believe she can't handle it...... Ahem, as long as there is enough time.
At this time, Ziyue served Duanmu a cup of warm flower tea, and took out a few snacks from the food box on the side, introducing them in the same way.
Anping likes to watch Duanmu Fei eat the most, and hurriedly beckoned her to eat, and said: "Fei'er, this palace has recently got some good blood swallows, this palace remembers that you and your sister love to eat bird's nest." Go back to the palace and let someone bring you some of the past. ”
The more An Ping looked, the more he felt that Duanmu Fei was still too thin, and he had to take more supplements to replenish his body.
She remembered that she should have some good ejiao, fish maw, and ginseng, and simply sent them all along. Hmm, she has to find a doctor to ask, what other supplements are good for the girl's family, the little girl needs to take care of herself at this age.
Duanmufei, who was drinking tea, shivered inexplicably, and the hairs on the back of his neck stood upside down.
Odd? Duanmu Fei raised his head, looked at Anping, and then at Ziyue, and blinked suspiciously.
At this time, the speed of the vermilion wheel began to slow down.
Zhongchen Street is only two or three streets away from the palace, and the Zhulun has already arrived at the palace gate.
Duanmufei wanted to enter the palace, but no one dared to stop her, and some people came forward to greet her enthusiastically, and led her and Anping all the way to the Heart Cultivation Palace.
From afar, the Jinyi guards guarding the door of the Heart Cultivation Hall saw Duanmu Fei coming, and someone immediately went in to pass through.
When Duanmu Fei and An Ping walked outside the main hall, Yuan Zhi happened to come out of the hall quickly, and greeted the two with a smile, "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, the fourth girl, please come inside." ”
Yuan Zhi smiled and stretched out his hand to the two to make a request, thoughtful and courteous.
An Ping crossed the high threshold of the main hall with his skirt and said, "Gonggong Yuan, this palace wants to see the emperor." ”
At the same time as she spoke, Wen Yongju happened to come out of the emperor's bedroom, frowned, and scolded An Ping angrily: "How can the emperor be seen if you say it?!" ”
Wen Yongju looked at An Ping gloomily, An Ping secretly raised the son of Emperor Chongming without telling the emperor, and he was really bold.
Yuan Zhi didn't look at Wen Yongju at all, and said respectfully to An Ping: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, the emperor is in the palace." ”
Yuan Zhi raised his hand and made a gesture, and let a small chamberlain lead An Ping into the dormitory, and Duanmu Fei stayed in the main hall outside.
"Stop! Don't enter ......" Wen Yongju wanted to stop Anping, but was blocked by two small chamberlains.
One of the little chamberlains smiled and said, "Father-in-law Wen, you seem to be tired, so just go back and rest." ”
Wen Yongju was so angry that his forehead was bruised, and he didn't want to reason with such a lowly little chamberlain.
He looked at Yuan Zhi angrily and roared, "Yuan Zhi, how can you just let Princess Anping in?!" Last time, the emperor said that the chief prince of Anping is going to rebel! A rebellious person like her, how can she be qualified to see the face of heaven! ”
Yuan Zhi still ignored Wen Yongju, and said to Duanmu Fei diligently: "Fourth girl, please take a seat." ”
"......" Wen Yongju was like a punch on cotton, and he couldn't do it.
Yuan Zhi asked the little waiter to serve tea to Duanmu, and then said flatteringly: "Fourth girl, two new peach blossom dim sum have recently come out of the imperial dining room, do you want to try it?" Our family looks pretty good. ”
Duanmu Fei knew that the dim sum in the imperial dining room had always been good, so he nodded in response, drank tea deliciously, and said in his heart: It's rare to enter the palace, do you want to stop by to see Hanxing later?
Wen Yongju saw that Yuan Zhiquan completely ignored him, and he was angry and hateful, but he was helpless.
His chest rose and fell violently, and he turned his head to look at the curtain that led to the dormitory, his eyes gloomy, and his gaze almost penetrated the curtain.
At this moment, An Ping on the other side of the curtain had already come to the dragon couch, looking straight at the emperor lying on the couch, looking at the familiar and strange person in front of him.
"You...... You ......" The emperor widened his cloudy and gloomy eyes in disbelief and looked at An Ping a few steps away in shock.
The emperor's eyes almost bulged out, without blinking, staring at An Ping like a cold poisonous snake, eager to tear her apart.
Of course, the two imperial doctors and the two little chamberlains in the dormitory also saw An Ping, and lowered their heads one by one.
"Brother Huang." An Ping called indifferently, his expression cold and detached, and a cold smile hooked up at the corner of his mouth.
This was the first time Anping saw him after the emperor's "illness".
The emperor has been so thin that only skin and bones remain, and the current emperor is just a wasted man.
Deserve.
The smile on the corner of An Ping's mouth deepened, and there was disgust, pleasure, and contempt in his heart...... The only thing that is not there is compassion.
Mu Jianming's fate is that he deserves it, and the worse he is, the better.
The royal brother and sister-in-law have spirits in the sky, but they can see what happened to Mu Jianming at this moment? !
"You ......," the Emperor said with difficulty with all his strength, intermittently, "how do you ...... Will be ...... Over here? ”
Anping took another step closer to the emperor and said with a smile: "This palace has come to see you, see how miserable you are, and see if you have received retribution......"
An Ping said almost word by word, his chin slightly raised, and he looked down at the emperor in a condescending manner.
"You ......" The emperor was so angry that the corners of his mouth trembled, his chest felt as if it had been run over by a carriage, the pain was unbearable, and he had more difficulty speaking, "Anping, you have been ...... In the ...... of hate I. ”
As if he had heard some joke, Anping sneered, and admitted calmly: "Of course." You killed your brother and seized the throne, you let the blood flow in this palace, shouldn't this palace hate you, Mu Jianming? ”
The little chamberlain and the two imperial physicians lowered their heads when they heard this.
The emperor's crooked lips trembled even more, his face turned pale, and his voice trembled hoarsely: "I ...... I really regret it. I ...... It shouldn't be ...... I am soft-hearted and let you go...... And that...... Evil seed! ”
He was too merciful, thinking that Anping was just a woman, and he couldn't make any splash, so he generously spared her life, but he didn't expect him to raise a tiger for trouble!
He should have cut the grass and eradicated the roots, and he should have killed Anping, a slut!
At this moment, the emperor really regretted not being at the beginning.
Just by saying this, the emperor's breath became even more rapid, like a remnant leaf in the wind and rain.
"Hypocrisy." An Ping's eyes were even colder, directly piercing the emperor's hypocritical mask.
"You are not letting this palace go, but you have a good face, and you don't want to be said that you are exterminated, and you are not willing to attract the suspicion of the world because of the extermination."
"You are afraid that others will say that you killed your brother and seized the throne, you are afraid that others will say that you have not taken the right position, and you are afraid that you will leave a stench for 10,000 years and be spurned by the world."
"You, you've been like this before, both to be a bitch and to set up a torii!"
Anping's words are sharp, every sentence is like ice, and every sentence pierces the emperor's heart.
The emperor only felt as if he had been stripped of his clothes, and as if he had been slapped and slapped by An Ping, his face was so hot that it hurt, his whole body trembled violently, and he couldn't breathe.
"You...... You ......"
The emperor's eyes breathed fire, and he couldn't help but think of the past.
A long, long time ago, before he ascended the throne, Anping reprimanded him from above; Now, almost twenty years have passed, and Anping is looking down on himself like this, as if he used to be.
The face in front of her seemed to overlap with the proud girl she once had, the elegant posture, the bright face, the proud expression, and the flaming eyes, as in the past, it seemed that the years had not left any traces on her.
And what about him?!
But he lay here so weakly, he couldn't even speak clearly, he couldn't even lift his hands, and he didn't even have the strength to slap her.
The emperor only felt that his heart was burning with pain, and he was angry and anxious, and said angrily: "Hurry up...... Give me ...... Chase her...... Get out! After saying that, the emperor gasped even harder.
However, there was a dead silence in the dormitory, and only the sound of the emperor's rapid and heavy breathing echoed in the air.
No one moved, no one answered, as if no one else existed.
An Ping sneered mockingly, raised his hand and gestured.
The two little chamberlains silently bowed to An Ping, and then bowed their heads and silently withdrew from the dormitory.
The two imperial physicians looked at each other, and the older old imperial physician nodded slightly, so they also followed behind the inner servant with each other.
"......" The emperor couldn't believe his eyes, and his mouth opened and closed. He wanted to scream, but he felt as if an invisible hand had grabbed his neck.
The Emperor suddenly realized that the people he served around him were no longer under his control!
In other words, he is isolated and helpless in this temple of heart cultivation, so that the heavens are not spiritual, and the earth should not be.
This thought made the emperor feel cold all over, as if his whole body was soaked in ice water, and his eyes were stunned to the extreme.
Wait, it's Cen Yin!
As if he had been struck by lightning, the emperor's heart instantly brightened and he figured it out.
Since the day he woke up, no one had come into the Heart Cultivation Hall to see him, and everyone was stopped outside the Heart Cultivation Hall on the grounds that he was going to recuperate.
Therefore, Anping can come to the Heart Cultivation Palace to see himself, as if he is in a no-man's land, it must be because of Cen Yin.
Therefore, Anping can make these chamberlains and imperial doctors dare not speak, it must be because of Cen Yin.
Now in this palace, only Cen Yin has such a deterrent.
"You...... You and Cen Yin ......"
The emperor's face was even more ugly, pale as paper, and he tried to raise his right hand to point at An Ping, his fingers trembling almost twitching, not knowing whether he was more angry or more afraid.
There is no doubt that Cen Yin, An Ping, Mu Yan's mother and son have formed an alliance.
Cen Yin betrayed himself and picked another master!
When did this happen?!
Could it be that during his coma, Cen Yin had been bought by Anping's mother and son, so he ignored his order to let him take down Anping's mother and son that day......
Just in the snap of his fingers, the emperor was already in a hundred thoughts, his eyes were shining, and his chest was rising and falling.
The Emperor took several deep breaths in quick succession, trying to calm himself down.
After a while, his breathing calmed down a little, but his face was still pale and blue.
He wasn't going to just lie here and be caught, he had to do something.
The emperor said to himself in his heart, his eyes getting deeper and darker, more and more gloomy.
"Anping," the Emperor said slowly, staring deeply at Anping, "I ...... Trust Cen Yin, he can ...... Betray me, in the future, if you ...... No...... Give it to him...... Adequate...... interests, he will also ...... Treachery...... You guys. ”
In the past few days, the emperor has been trapped in the Heart Nourishing Palace, in addition to recuperating from his illness, he is repeatedly thinking about his current situation and how he should get out of this predicament.
Now Cen Yin firmly controls the government, he is sick again, and it is difficult to even get up, with his current dragon body, it is too difficult to regain the government from Cen Yin's hands.
What he should do now is to recuperate the dragon body while appeasing Cen Yin, he must make Cen Yin regain his allegiance to him, so that he can use Cen Yin to control the government.
It's Cen Yin who has now formed an alliance with Anping's mother and son, so what?
Their alliance is fragile, he only needs to find a way to stir up one or two, Anping will naturally be suspicious of Cen Yin, and there will naturally be a rift between them, and he can benefit from it.
The emperor stared at An Ping without blinking, he didn't believe that An Ping would fully trust Cen Yin, and if a person would betray once, there would be two, three times......
An looked at the emperor calmly, but smiled silently, and the corners of his slightly curled lips had a hint of mockery.
Even if she couldn't read minds, she could guess what the emperor was thinking.
She, the royal brother, has been like a day for decades, narrow-minded, suspicious and selfish, and will only do it to herself.
The emperor stared at the smile on the corner of An Ping's lips, and repeated again as if cursing: "He must ...... Will betray ...... You guys. ”
The emperor sneered in his heart: An Ping just made a look of indifference on her face, she must have doubts about Cen Yin in her heart, he wants to see when the alliance between them will collapse!
One day, he will make Anping and that evil seed kneel at his feet and beg for mercy!
The Emperor swore in his heart that this time, he would never show mercy to his subordinates.
The room was quiet for a few breaths, and the incense burning in the corner had gone out at some point, and the smell of medicine in the air had become stronger.
An Ping was too lazy to say anything to the emperor about betrayal, and changed his words: "Mu Jianming, this palace came to the palace today to tell you something, Ah Yan went to the south, and all the lost land in the south has been recovered." ”
The emperor was stunned and frowned slightly.
What is Anping talking about, how did Mu Yan's evil seed go to the southern border?! When did he go to the South, and why didn't anyone tell him?!
An Ping carelessly stroked his sleeve and continued unhurriedly:
"Mu Jianming, you have reigned for eighteen years, and you have broken this once prosperous Dasheng, internal and external troubles, and the country is in danger, but you are still boasting of what is the prosperity of Xuanlong, as if you are blind to the thousands of holes under the prosperous appearance, turning a blind eye."
"From the emperor's grandfather to the father and then to the emperor's brother, it has been nearly a few decades of hard work to make Dasheng prosperous step by step, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and the hardships of several generations are almost destroyed by your hands, and almost let Dasheng country ruin!"
"Ah Yan is different from you, he is the son of the emperor's brother, he will let Dasheng return to prosperity!"
An Ping's expression was firm, and his eyes were shining, as if he was swearing something.
She obviously just stood there motionless, exuding a pride and domineering aura like a raging flame.
