Chapter 194: The End of Selfishness
Xia Xiaoxuan had been observing their expressions, and now that she saw Ah Zi's face crimson and running in a panic, she was even more sure of her guess in her heart.
It seems that this temptation is worth it, not only to test the true feelings of Ah Zi and Chu Yuanhao, but also to give Baili Qianfeng a shock. It's just that what she didn't expect was Yun Qing, in case that person couldn't put away the sword, in case she didn't make a timely move, Yun Qing might really die, then wouldn't she have to feel guilty for the rest of her life?
Chu Yuanhao was right, she couldn't ignore Yun Qing anymore, he must have been frightened a lot this time, she should go and see him.
"Ah Zi, you help me go to Yehou Mansion, help me bring a message to Ye Ziyu, and arrange for Li Wanrong to leave the palace." Time is running out now, and she has to arrange everything so that she can give it her all.
After Ah Zi left, Xia Xiaoxuan was about to go to Fengyi Palace to have a look, but she ran into a eunuch from Cining Palace who came to pass the word, saying that the Queen Mother wanted to see her.
This old woman, it's not good to recite scriptures to atone for her sins, why are you seeing her?
Although she was very disdainful, she didn't kill her with her own hands for this woman who turned her back on her husband and stole people, and killed her mother, but just wanted her to watch her succeed in revenge step by step and let her die in pain.
But she also came to Cining Palace, but she didn't see her for a few days, and the Queen Mother seemed to be more than ten years old in an instant, and the hair on her head was already gray. It's a far cry from the one she's seen before, a woman with still charm.
"What is the Queen Mother looking for me?"
Xia Xiaoxuan sat uninvited, without rules, and even the chief eunuch in Cining Palace couldn't get used to it.
But the Queen Mother didn't get angry, just waved her hand and told them all to go down.
There were only two people left in the room, Xia Xiaoxuan and the Queen Mother, and they didn't need to be polite.
"Everybody's busy, can you just say something?" Xia Xiaoxuan said very politely.
The Queen Mother kept looking at Xia Xiaoxuan for a long time before she spoke, "You are really similar to her." ”
"You said that last time." The implication was that she left without anything else.
The Queen Mother is not arrogant or impatient, and it seems that her whole person has changed.
"I know you're here for revenge, and I know I can't stop you."
Xia Xiaoxuan couldn't help but pick at her, didn't even say anything about the mourning family, and directly called herself me. If you put your posture so low, you must have something to ask her, right? Let's hear about it.
"It is a sin that I have done on my own, and I always have to pay my debts, which is a matter of course. Don't you really want to know the truth of the matter? I'll tell you the truth right now. ”
"Human nature is good, and I used to be a pure and kind girl. With a dream, I want to marry someone I like. As long as I can be with him, I can do anything. I don't care if he is a son of heaven or a pauper, as long as he is by my side, I am satisfied. ”
"The person I like is your father, when I met him, he was not the emperor, not even the prince, just an unfavored prince. People are excluded and framed everywhere. There were several times when he narrowly escaped death before he had the idea of seizing the throne. ”
It seems that the struggle for the throne has never stopped since ancient times.
"In order to help him take the throne, I begged my father to agree to marry him, and I persuaded Baili Crane to help him. Because I know that Baili Crane likes me, he will not refuse me. That's what I was at the time
I'm selfish, I didn't think about whether this would hurt him, I just wanted to be with Bailimu. So much so that later, your father and emperor trusted Baili Crane too much, so he didn't have any precautions against him. ”
The Queen Mother sneered when she said this, "Maybe I'm really a selfish woman, right?" For the sake of one's own happiness, I don't care how many people are sacrificed. I thought I would be happy in this way, and in fact I did be happy for a while after I married your father.
That was before he ascended the throne, and there were no other women around him except me. At that time, we were really affectionate, even if I didn't come out after two years of marriage, he never asked for a concubine. ”
"But the good times didn't last long, and soon he ascended the throne and became the Son of Heaven, and I became the envy of all women in the world, the head of the Six Palaces.
But they only saw my scenery, but they didn't see the bitterness in my heart. Because he is the emperor, in order to stabilize the country, it is impossible to have no concubines, let alone no heirs. ”
"Soon one after another women entered the palace, all of them were as beautiful as flowers, and they would please the emperor, and I was very jealous. Especially when I saw that they gave birth to dragon sons, I was even more jealous and crazy. ”
"So you killed all those dragons?" A jealous woman who really does anything.
"I didn't do it at the time, because I knew that no matter how wronged I was, I had to think about the emperor and his country, and it was impossible for him not to have an heir to the throne.
It wasn't until I gave birth to Chen'er that my mentality completely changed. I can't let anyone else take away what belongs to my son, this throne can only belong to him. ”
"Then have you ever wondered what karma is? You're always thinking about yourself, killing anyone who might be a threat to you. Don't they have the right to live? And by doing so, you are not only accumulating sin for yourself, but it will also make your husband hate you even more. "So she got to this point, and it was all caused by herself. Xia Xiaoxuan felt that if she killed her, she would be dirty with her hands.
Zhu Yujuan couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then laughed and laughed out of tears.
"Yes, I have suffered retribution, my son is dead, and even my daughter hates me. The only person I trust is the one who caused me to lose everything, hehe......"
"Maybe you're right, I've done too much evil. But I'm a woman after all, if it's you, can you tolerate other women around your husband? It's hard to tolerate, but I tolerate it. Because I know that he is the emperor, for the sake of the stability of the country, it is impossible to have only one woman by my side. But what I can't tolerate is that he fell in love with your mother. Do you know what that means? Spring is bitter and short, and the day is high, and the king is not early in the dynasty from then on. The six palaces have no color, and the three thousand are pampered in one.
The emperor did not go to other concubines for her, and promised the world that he would never accept concubines again. Since then, there will be nothing in the harem except you. I'd rather him be wet with rain and dew than he dotes on your mother.
Where did he end me, the queen, like this? The harem concubines cried to me one after another, asking me to persuade the emperor. Even the ministers, who were not used to it, came to me.
But when I went to persuade the emperor, what did I get? He told me that if I had any more trouble, the queen's position would be given up and your mother would do it. Think about it, how can a proud person like me stand it. He even made a fox a queen. Isn't it just that you can play the piano?
will attract butterflies, isn't it just this way to charm the monarch? I thought that if I looked good, I would have capital, I was also young, and I was also favored, but I was not reconciled, and all this was taken away by your mother. Speaking of this, the Queen Mother was emotional, as if Xia Xiaoxuan standing in front of her was the spirit concubine of the year, and she couldn't wait to step forward and tear her apart.
"So you hate not only my mother, but also those who dot on my mother, even your husband!"
Compared to her excitement, Xia Xiaoxuan's heart was like a knife, and her sharp gaze shot at the woman in front of her. It was her, this selfish woman. If it weren't for her, the father and mother would not have died, and Baili Zihuang would not have become an orphan and suffered so much.
"You always feel that you have been wronged, and your efforts have not been rewarded. But have you ever thought that others have also paid, why can't you respect others? ”
Although she said very aggrieved, Xia Xiaoxuan did not sympathize with her at all. It's not just that her mother is a victim, because this woman doesn't have anything to do with it.
"Do you think that my father is really a mediocre emperor? Do you think it's really just my mother's beauty that he has a crush on? If you think so, you couldn't be more wrong. Beauty can attract a man's eyes, and the heart and soul can truly make him fall in love with you.
Don't you suspect my mother's demonic religion? Actually, you're right in your suspicions, my mother is indeed a demon. ”
After saying this, Zhu Yujuan's face suddenly changed. From the anger just now, it turned into horror. Originally, she was just suspicious, but she found that no matter how much she bullied her, she didn't fight back, so she dispelled her suspicions. Because it was impossible for the people of the Demon Sect to let her be bullied casually, she finally framed her as a witch.
But listening to Xia Xiaoxuan tell the truth, the shock in my heart is beyond words.
"You know you're scared, right? I'm sure you've heard of the methods of the Demon Cultists, right? Do you think my mother can only play the piano to attract butterflies? Then you are wrong. She can kill people invisibly, you don't know how you died. Seeing that her face was getting paler and paler, Xia Xiaoxuan sneered in her heart.
"Do you know why my father dotes on her so much? Not because she is a witch, but because she is obviously a member of the Demon Sect, and she has a unique skill that can run rampant in the world. But she chose mediocrity, restrained all her edges, and was willing to be one of the three thousand beauties in his harem. No matter how much she was wronged, she endured it and regarded herself as an ordinary woman. Obviously, she can fight back, but for the sake of her husband, for the sake of the children, and for the sake of the peace of the world, she endured everything. ”
The most important thing is that if she really kills people with her stunts, she will definitely be discovered by the people of the Demon Sect, and then the consequences will be unimaginable.
"You killed your father and wronged her. She didn't kill you because the person she loved the most left, and she no longer had the meaning of survival. Do you think you've won? In fact, you lost completely, because in the end it was my mother who was with my father, not you. ”
At this time, Zhu Yujuan's face completely turned earthy gray, and she sat on the chair dejectedly. She always thought she was the winner, but in the end she realized that people didn't bother to fight with her at all. It's like from beginning to end, he is a clown who jumps off the beam, singing a one-man show.
Hehe, it's funny, she did lose, and she lost badly. I'm afraid that if she dies, her husband and son won't forgive her.
