Chapter 1: Forefront
The big red court robe moved slightly behind the bead curtain, and a cold light flashed, and everyone was terrified.
"Ah Wan!"
"Evening Blossom!"
The roars of the two men shook the Nine-Fold Hall. Everyone's eyes were focused on the fallen figure on the ninefold steps.
Xu Li stepped forward and grabbed the fallen person. "Ah Wan!" The thick eyebrows were immediately twisted into a ball, and the originally handsome face looked extremely hideous, as if it was a god.
Black Blood! The dark eyes suddenly tightened, and he immediately shouted at Xu Ren, who was already stunned at the bottom of the nine-fold steps: "Brother Huang is still stunned!" Don't hurry up and save Ah Wan! ”
Being shouted like this, Xu Ren woke up from his fright, took a few steps to climb the nine-fold steps, and came to the throne. But before he could do anything, Xia Wanhua stretched out her hand to stop him.
"Big brother, don't waste your efforts. This dagger has been coated with poison by me, and even you are powerless. ”
"You!" Xu Ren punched the ground in annoyance, his eyes were red and shouted at Xia Wanhua: "Why bother! With the emperor and me, why do you have to be like this! ”
Xia Wanhua smiled indifferently, and her eyes stopped at a shadow hidden in the distance. After all, she Xia Wanhua was defeated. That woman has endured for more than ten years, without a name and no share, and she really admires this perseverance and patience. But this woman is all about the man who wants to take her, how can she give it up! Even if she loses, her Xia Wanhua will not make her opponent so happy!
She's going to keep that woman alive! Look at hope, but you can't get it! Just live like that!
That's her summer wanhua's man. I have been fighting for more than ten years, angry for more than ten years, and complaining for more than ten years, but I have also been happy for more than ten years, and I have supported each other for more than ten years. If you want to understand Xu Li, how many people in this world can understand her more thoroughly than Xia Wanhua?
Xu Xiu, don't say it's the back position, it's this back / palace, after today, it's destined to be lost with you.
Retracting her gaze, Xia Wanhua stretched out two weak hands and grabbed Xu Li and Xu Ren's hands and put them together. "I only ask you to have peace in the future."
"Ah Wan, how can I be safe without you? You're so ruthless, just leave me like this. Xu Li glanced at Xu Xiu, who was cowering in the corner, and held back a breath of anger in his heart.
It was only at this moment that he realized the unspeakable suffering of his Ah Wan. He was full of remorse, and pressed his face tightly against Xia Wanhua's face, with tears in his eyes, he had long lost the domineering spirit of the emperor on weekdays. Whether it's power or power, what is it to him Xu Li? At the beginning, he wanted to win everything just to be able to hug her, rule the world together, and build a peaceful and prosperous world together. Qingping is prosperous, this is their original intention to come together!
But now, as the king of a country, he has won the world and is admired by the world, but he has lost her alone!
Why would it be her! Has she sacrificed enough for this country, for this country, and for this world?
His dark eyes were full of anger, and he swept around the ministers who were kneeling on the ground at the bottom of the Ninth Order. I remember all of you! Ah Wan is dead, and you all have to be buried together! Without a beloved, what is the use of this country!
Several ministers under the Ninth Order, who strongly advocated the abolition of the post, immediately lowered their heads in a weak heart at Xu Li's angry gaze. In the face of the eyes that were eager to cut them off, these people were not afraid in their hearts, and they were still calculating what would happen after Lixin. But some people regret it.
Even if the new queen is abolished, the position of the new queen will not be the turn of the women of their family. Now that he has forced the queen to death, how can the emperor spare them. The emperor's favor for the empress is known to the world. What is the sixth house of the pet crown? There is only one palace in the harem of this Great Qi Kingdom, and that is Fengzao Palace! From the queen marrying the emperor, this great favor is all this woman's! His most beloved woman was forced to die, according to the character of this emperor, how could he give up!
Thinking about this at this time, these people can't help but feel remorse. It's too late to know! All you can do is save and let your family die less.
"Ahem...... I was a crippled life, and I didn't live for a few days, and it would be a good thing if I could rely on this crippled life to help you get through this. Without me, the demon queen, those old stubborns have no excuses, and they can't make any waves. Xia Wanhua tried her best to finish speaking, but as soon as she finished speaking, a mouthful of black blood spit out, all splashed on the bright yellow placket.
Xu Li's body stiffened, looked down, and suddenly whispered to himself. "I'm an emperor!" The bottom of his eyes is full of inexhaustible hatred. Hates herself, hates Xia Wanhua, and hates the courtiers who forced her to death!
"It seems that I made a mistake again, and the dosage was miscalculated again." Xia Wanhua looked at Xu Ren with a slight sideways face. "Big brother, Wanhua begs you for something."
"You say, big brother will help you do it. Even if it's the moon in the sky, big brother will help you complete it! "Twenty years later, the end result is still the same, is everything he did right or wrong? Perhaps, he shouldn't have brought her to the Xu family back then. In that case, she will not fall in love with Xu Li, she will not marry Xu Li, she will not become the queen, and she will not give up her life for the Xu family.
He is the cause of everything! He Xu Ren!
If God gives him another choice, he will never let her approach the Xu family again! I won't let her step on the ninefold steps again!
Hearing Xu Ren's sobbing, Xia Wanhua's heart turned a thousand times. She was only nine years old at the time, and it was this man who rescued her from the nightmare and took her little hand and walked into the door of Weiyuan Hou Xu's house. When she was fifteen years old, when Xu Li wanted to marry her, everyone stood up against it, but only he agreed.
He is the eldest son of the Xu family and should have inherited the throne. He felt that he was not suitable for fame and fortune, so he gave up the position of the prince and was succeeded by Xu Lilai. But Xia Wanhua knew that he wanted to give her a stable guarantee. In the future, the Xu family will win the world from the Zhou family, and Xu Li will inevitably be the emperor. In the end, she will be the most noble woman on the ninefold order.
He's really doing it for himself! But he never thought about his own happiness. He is over forty years old this year, but he is alone. How could Xia Wanhua not know his own thoughts. But he already has Xu Li, and he only has respect for him.
"Big brother, Wanhua just asks the eldest brother to help Ah Li more. He wanted to be a good emperor, and Wanhua begged his eldest brother to help him. ”
"Ah Wan." The tip of Xu Li's nose was sour, and he couldn't control it anymore, and the bean-sized tears fell down.
Even now, she doesn't forget to plan for her future. The guilt in Xu Li's heart was much more. After twenty-one years of acquaintance and fifteen years of husband and wife, Xu Li knew that he owed this woman too much. The world says that they spoil her to heaven, but what about the truth! Only I know it in my heart.
"Okay, big brother promises you." Xu Ren choked and held Xia Wanhua's hand. As long as it is what she asks, he Xu Ren will not live up to it.
"With you two by my side, ...... Good. It's been more than 20 years, ahem...... I can't even remember what my grandfather looked like. It's time for me to go to him. Xia Wanhua looked at the sky outside the Nine-Fold Hall, her eyes wandering. I don't know what else I'll be like if I die this time. ”
The last time she died, she traveled into this world. And this time? I hope that everything will return to dust, and the dust will return to the earth. She's tired, so let her sleep with the beauty she has now.
Soon, the bell of the Palace of Saints struck the sky. Empress Xushi, for a time, the imperial capital Kunze City was covered in white.
Thousands of miles away in Yueshan, the officers and soldiers who reported the funeral galloped by. After a long sigh came from the ridge next to him, he picked up the hoe and left. But the burly body is still strong, keeping the promise of the year.
The people of the entire Great Qi Kingdom know that the current empress has been married to the emperor for fifteen years and has nothing to do. And the current emperor has no other concubines, so naturally he has no heirs. Then, everyone's eyes were on the Shangyang Gate of the Imperial Palace. I want to know who will make the mourning flag for the queen on the day of the funeral. It is very likely that this person will be the future crown prince and the future emperor of Great Qi.
Surprisingly, this person is not Xu Xin, the fifth emperor who most people think of, but Xu Jinrui, the son of King Xiao. did not pass on the throne to his younger brother, but passed on the throne to his brother-in-law's eldest son, which made many people confused. But the more incomprehensible things are to come. The emperor of a dignified country actually sent a spirit to the queen in person!
For a while, there were many women's infatuation and envy in this world. I feel that my man is not half a star, and I envy the queen's good life!
But once the big-hearted careerists smelled something different. This emperor's move is to tell them, you all hurry up and wash your necks and send them over for me to cut off! What a bad thing!
Sure enough, within half a month after the national funeral, a book of impeachment of corrupt officials was placed on top of the dragon case. Soon, an old man of Jiuqing Pavilion was dismissed, and three Shangshu were sent to the prison to be beheaded, and there were not many petty officials involved. All the ministers knew that this was the emperor's revenge. Even if you destroy this Great Qi country, you have to take revenge!
In the following year and a half, the Great Qi court carried out a major purge, which was the most powerful purge in the six years since the Xu family took over the country from the Zhou family. It is precisely because of this that the dynasty of the Great Qi State has completely changed and cleaned up the bad habits left by the Great Zhou.
Xu Ren sat in the study, his fingertips lightly tapping a booklet on the bookcase. It's time to close the last net! The same dark eyes as Xu Li flashed with a touch of ruthlessness. He doesn't want to be the emperor, but it doesn't mean that he is willing to let others destroy their Xu family! These people want their people to sit in the back seat, and they dare to attack his late bloom, then they should be ready to die!
The two brothers, Xu Ren and Xu Li, quickly cut through the mess, that is, to avenge their beloved, and to eliminate the threat of Daqi's domestic threat.
Three years later, Xu Li made Xu Jinrui, the emperor's nephew, the crown prince. Two years later, Xu Li was seriously ill and abdicated, and lived in Fengzao Palace to recuperate. Xu Jinrui even invited a high priest from Nanwu to heal Xu Li. But two and a half years later, Xu Li still died depressed.
And Xu Ren, after Xu Li's death, assisted his nephew Xu Jinrui with peace of mind until Xu Jinrui was able to support the Great Qi country alone.
Five years later, on a snowy day, Xu Ren left the Inwang Mansion alone and never returned.
Xu Jinrui sent people to search everywhere, and finally found Xu Ren, who had been frozen, on the side of a cliff on the east side of the imperial mausoleum, facing the imperial mausoleum, his eyes kept open. Holding a painting in his hand, the painting was broken, and only two words were clear on it: Xiahou.
In the early morning, a ray of morning light shone in, and a pair of dark eyes in the bed curtain slowly opened.
It seems to have been a long, real dream.
A bright smile suddenly appeared on the childish face, but the tears in the corners of the eyes wet the pillow towel.
