Chapter 82: Palace

On the seventh day of July 977, the emperor congratulated Li Yu on his birthday in the imperial garden, and the courtiers congratulated him one after another, which was the first time since the founding of the Song Dynasty to celebrate the birthday of officials in the palace, and everyone said that Li Yu was deeply valued by the emperor. At the end of the banquet, Zhao Guangyi once again left me in the palace in the name of the queen, he said that he had not seen me for a long time, and he missed me very much.

I didn't say anything, silently poured wine and ate the good food on the table in front of me.

"I don't want to keep Li Yu anymore." Halfway through the wine, Zhao Guangyi suddenly spoke.

"He is not a threat to the emperor."

"But if he's there, you won't fall in love with me."

"If he is not there, the courtiers will not fall in love with the emperor."

"Why? I am the Son of Heaven. ”

"The emperor is the Son of Heaven, what kind of woman do you want you to get?"

"I think only of you."

"The family is broken, the country is ruined, the women are scattered, and the friends are ......dead," he said slowly with his hands folded.

"So, you're hating me?"

"Don't dare, all the piles mentioned above are all things that the courtiers can't keep by themselves."

"I can give you a better life."

"But, Your Majesty, your cage is too big, and you can't be trapped after all......"

"If Li Yu goes, will you look back?"

"Then I'll follow."

"Do you love him so much?"

"The emperor is drunk ......"

"I don't have ......"

Zhao Guangyi has always been suspicious by nature, even the harem attendants are inspected layer by layer, and they can't bring a silk scarf, and now they are drunk in my arms, which really surprises me.

Kill him, and all vengeance will be avenged;

No, he can't be killed, and once he dies, no one in the house will live;

If he does not die, the people in the house will not live;

But he saved your life several times;

I held the bracelet in my hand, and two conversations kept popping up in my head, I thought that I would not show mercy as long as I had the opportunity, but now that the opportunity is really in front of me, I can't do it.

"When you entered the Song Dynasty to negotiate, I wanted to protect your health for the rest of your life." Zhao Guangyi in his arms was still muttering to himself.

"What?"

"When the imperial brother wanted to kill you, that was the first time I quarreled with my brother for a woman."

"She begged me for help in the death of the lady, and I also had her buried back in Jinling afterwards."

Lady of the Kiln, what do you mean, wasn't Lady Niang forced to death by him?

"I know you hate me, but I've never hurt you......"

"It would be nice if you weren't a Tang person."

"It would be better if we met when we were young."

"I really can't figure it out, I can't figure out why you hate me......"

Yes, but after all, I returned to this world with hatred after the death of the country.

I didn't continue to pay attention to the drunk Zhao Guangyi, just threw a blanket at him and went to bed by myself, tossing and turning until midnight.

Early the next morning, the queen came to the palace, and he said that the news of the emperor's stay in my room last night had spread throughout the palace, and it would soon reach the former court.

"What kind of person is the emperor, doesn't Niangniang know best?"

"It's clear that I don't want you to ruin the emperor's reputation."

"Niangniang is really good at laughing, Qingyu, has the emperor ever had it?"

"Bold." I didn't expect that the queen, who was gentle and virtuous a second ago, would suddenly get angry. "The emperor has not been close to women since he was a child, and he has always been mature and steady, until you appear, you will ruin him."

Ruined him? I do.

"Niangniang laughed, it's not certain who ruined whom."

"You ......" The queen was speechless for a while, and fainted.

When the accompanying maids saw that the queen was dizzy, they immediately lost their attention, and could only shout, which attracted many palace people and guards after a while.

"Hurry up and help the queen to the bed and ask the imperial doctor to go." Looking at the group of people in front of me who were at a loss for what to do, it made me anxious.

Zhao Guangyi soon got the news and rushed over, the queen was still in a coma, and I, as the main culprit who hurt the queen, was temporarily detained in the side hall.

It wasn't until the evening that Zhao Guangyi made time to come and see me.

"How's the Queen?" Although I don't know the queen, she happened in my room, and I can't get out of it anyway.

"The doctor said she was pregnant, and she would just fall asleep."

"It's okay."

"Have you eaten it?"

"Nope."

"No one to deliver food?"

"No, it's because I don't want to eat it, and I can't eat it without news from the queen." In this situation, more is better than less, and I have taken the responsibility on myself.

Zhao Guangyi asked people to pass the meal, there was no wine on the table tonight, it seemed that he was afraid that what happened last night would happen again.

"You said yesterday that the lady begged you by herself?"

"Did I say that? I don't remember, let's eat first. ”

"Hmm."

Soon, the news that the queen fainted in her room also spread throughout the harem, and everyone was talking about my jealousy of the queen and deliberately pushing the queen to, and the queen almost lost the fetus in her womb.

The former courtiers have played one after another, and they want me to give the queen justice, is it fair? Who should pay for my justice?

"How to pay it back? Do you use your life? ”

"You don't have to listen to this, I will protect you."

"How to protect it? Let me bear the title of the Holy of Confusion? ”

"What do you want?"

"What does the emperor want?" I stood up and yelled, completely oblivious to my previous image.

"You know what I want."

"The courtiers don't know."

"Then you can think about it until you know it."

Zhao Guangyi forcibly suppressed his anger and went out.

From the moment I came in, I was an enemy of this palace, and Zhao Guangyi had not come over for several days since the last quarrel.

The emperor's favor is gone, and I have nothing, and when the people saw this, the food sent to my room became worse and worse, and in the end there was only a bowl of porridge......

On the fifth day, the porridge was gone, and everyone thought that the emperor had chosen to abandon me, so no one was willing to pay attention to me.

On the seventh day, I didn't even have the strength to get up, and I didn't eat water and rice for three days, and I counted the days, and now I was afraid that I would become the first official wife to be starved to death since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty.

"No, I can't die in such a mess."

I struggled to my feet, ready to hang myself on the beams, to leave the last bit of dignity for myself.

Of course, I didn't die, Zhao Guangyi pushed the door in when I just stuck my neck in, and for a while, I looked at each other, and I was so nervous that I was put down without even kicking off the stool.

"Why kill yourself?"

"Because I'm going to starve to death."

"Starving?"

"Yes, don't you just want me to starve to death in this palace?"

I fainted just when I was about to give Zhao Guangyi a roll of the eyes, I must have been hungry for too long.

The next day, the people in my courtyard were replaced, and I heard that the people who were originally serving were given imperial wine by Zhao Guangyi's order, and no one in the palace dared to mention my existence at will.

Zhao Guangyi's mood got better for some reason, he released my captivity, and began to follow my ass all day long, and he followed me wherever I went, completely ignoring the eyes of others.
