Chapter 2 Killing the new emperor for the power of the son, the emperor wants to dominate the industry with a pot of wine
The male attendant who opened the curtain to change his clothes whispered that the queen mother was ready, and the queen mother was not yet well, so she would not attend the new emperor's enthronement ceremony. He listened, but his mind was not on these things, and he was still reminiscing about the dream. He did not forget that in the end he fell from the high platform with palpitations, and he failed.
Won't today's ceremony go as smoothly as expected? The waiter tied his belt with the dragon, but when he looked up, he saw his hideous smile, and he was stunned, but he didn't dare to talk more, and still lowered his head.
When I went out to pedal the car, a lantern was already lit in a smaller carriage, and although the sun was out, the sky was not bright. He is a real dragon, and he doesn't even dare to shine with the sun. The carriage shook for a while, the wheels began to roll, and when it arrived in front of the Khitai Palace, it was replaced by a sedan chair carried by sixteen people. The white veil on the queen's face was blown by the wind, leaking a silhouette. He pulled it, and the emperor and queen rode to the rooftop together.
Everything at the beginning was like yesterday's dream, only this time he could see Mei Shu and see her body trembling all the way because of nervousness. He comforted Mei Shu softly on the sedan chair, but it didn't seem to have much effect.
However, such a ceremony, for a woman who is about to be a mother of the world, a little nervousness is not too much. Holding Yugui in his hand, he climbed up step by step, and he counted nine steps, no more, no less.
In front of him was the eighth step that he had fallen from in his dream, and he stepped on it with one foot, with great force, it was so real.
"Ahh Stop it! "The last thing he heard was a woman shouting, was it Mei Shu? Or is it the Liu family who is about to become the queen mother? He was still thinking about giving Liu's title "Shuwen", and he was praising Liu's virtuousness and talent.
But his heart ached. The hand holding Yugui freed up one and touched the heart, it was an abrupt arrow.
It's not like this, he is the Ninth Five-Year Honor, the new emperor. It must have been a dream, and he wanted to wake up. He began to struggle, but he fell to his knees, and the more he struggled, the more he felt his body rolling down a little bit. Blood oozed from his chest, staining the bricks red. The moment he closed his eyes, he saw clearly that the woman who was shouting was the queen mother.
She was neatly dressed, but her face was pale. tightened her son in her arms, and the golden hairpin on her head shook step by step, loosening and falling with her movements. A gust of wind ruffled her long hair and lifted her robe. People looked at her body and trembled, but they couldn't hear the cry, they couldn't see the tears.
The people who followed caused an even greater commotion, and the hundred officials no longer cared about the newly dead prince, and knelt down and shouted three long live to their former emperor. King Xia and King Guang walked step by step with him in their arms, approaching the eyes of the hundred officials, he waved his arm and asked his two sons to step back, he wanted to prove that he was not only alive, but also all right.
The overwhelming "Long live my emperor" brought tears to his eyes.
"No one can plot against my Great Wei Jiangshan, not my son, let alone my wife and concubine!" The old minister, who is over half a hundred years old, has wet sleeves. At this moment, everyone realized that there were no Liu's father and son by their side, and the officials who followed them on weekdays.
originally thought that the Liu family was hit even by the new emperor's fear of his relatives, but now it seems that everything is not like this.
A silver light flashed, and with the exclamation of "escort", Empress Liu pulled out a sword and stabbed straight at Emperor Wei. But he was stopped by a soldier who was close to him and took away the sword in his hand.
The Liu family looked up to the sky and shouted: "My Liu family has shed blood for your country, but you don't trust us after all, and even your own son can't get your trust!" Beside her finger lay the body of the Prince.
These are crazy words, no one listens, she became a crazy queen, torn and dragged down. It's not that Emperor Wei doesn't trust her, it's just that she wants too much, so much that she loses what Ben promised her.
Emperor Wei lingered on the bed for nine months, and it is rumored that for the first three months, the empress had his medicinal diet added a medicine of restraint every day. Later, he was noticed by the chief envoy who knew a little about pharmacology, and secretly told Mrs. Hui to break the queen's trick.
Is there such a coincidence?
In the deep palace, there has never been a root cause to follow. In any case, Mrs. Hui and King Guang have made meritorious contributions, naturally one holds the real power of the harem, and the other has become the prince of the country.
Shortly after the death of the former crown prince, the East Palace was raided, and when Mei Shu's body was dragged out from under the bed, it caused an exclamation. She was disfigured in front of her, she already looked horrible, and she had been dead for several days before she was found, and her body was already stinking.
Back in time, three days before the crown prince ascended the throne, Shen Meiren's mother and son had a dispute in the palace. The palace maids and eunuchs were all sent out, and people faintly heard the scolding of Shen Meiren, it seemed that King Xia had accepted a concubine that Shen Meiren was not very satisfied with. The ugliness of the family should not be publicized, so it is natural to send the palace people out. However, this is not the case, and they argue while writing on slips of paper.
"The queen is gone, Mrs. Hui is alone, we have close contact with her on weekdays, and today's affairs are inseparable."
"You, I, mother and son, can please leave."
"The world is so big, where can I settle down? Obey her mind first, and then the child will make plans. ”
Everyone saw King Xia slamming the door and leaving, and the fireworks woman was brought into the palace on the same day. However, the woman infiltrated the East Palace the night before the crown prince ascended the throne. When Mei Shu called the maidservant, she entered her room to kill people and hide the corpse, all in one go.
Then, she put on Mei Shu's gown and put on her veil, with a wide sleeve large enough to hide a crossbow and a poisoned arrow.
The crown prince died at the enthronement ceremony, and everyone had long ignored this woman, and she still returned to the Xia Wangfu to be his concubine. Three days later, he died of poison ingestion, and King Xia's face was apologetic rather than sad.
Many years later, King Xia, who was sitting on the dragon chair, would think of her from time to time, and then posthumously crowned her a concubine, until he died, he did not forget to ask his heir to be buried with her. As for where she came from and what kind of background she has, it will always be a mystery.
Of course, at this moment, King Xia didn't expect such a distant future, and he didn't even expect that he would plunge the long sword into Ji Honghua's chest. However, when his mother was almost chopped up by the Empress Dowager Xiaohui, he had no other choice.
Although Emperor Wei saved his life, he was still sick, and after another two years, he was buried underground. The crown prince Guangwang naturally ascended the throne with a testament, and respected his biological mother, Mrs. Hui, as the queen mother of filial piety.
Before Shen Meiren could accompany King Xia to leave, she received a glass of wine from the Empress Dowager Xiaohui.
"The first emperor dreamed that he was lonely underground, and let Sister Shen go down as a companion." Shen Meiren never thought that Mrs. Hui would become what she is today.
She didn't want to die, she had waited for so many years just to stay away from her son, she resisted and struggled, and roared: "Have you forgotten who you did for you when you poisoned the first emperor and blamed Empress Liu?" Forgot how you persecuted King Xia? If these things are known to the officials, do you think your son will be able to sit on the throne again? ”
A dense layer of cold sweat oozed from the forehead of the Empress Dowager Xiaohui, of course she was afraid, she was also worried for nearly ten years, and the moment Hongduo returned to Shen Meiren, she began to be afraid. is afraid that her son will become a stepping stone for others, and she is afraid that she will die in the dispute of the harem. Therefore, she has always pretended to be virtuous and pretended to be indisputable. Today, she won, how can she allow others to snore on the side of the couch? She's going to get rid of the last threat.
"Stop!" It was King Xia who pushed the door in, he knocked over the wine, helped his mother up, but knelt down himself: "The queen mother has raised her children for five years, and she also has the love of mother and son, her son has never begged you for one thing, today I only ask you to spare the life of the concubine, and we will leave here forever." ”
Empress Dowager Xiaohui gently touched his face: "Why isn't the son of the mourning family you?" Tears overflowed her eyes, but she couldn't agree to Hongduo's request: "Don't worry, she's gone, and the mourning family will send you on your way." ”
King Xia twitched the corners of his mouth, laughed, and then burst into tears, he couldn't escape the arrangement of fate.
