Chapter 465: Why Do You Want to Unify the Four Kingdoms?
"Hey!" Emperor Chu let out a long sigh, "I really can't bear to be married for more than 20 years!" Well, give you three more days, and you can think about it. In addition to that evil seed, our family enjoys a happy family. Or will you and all your children die well? You've figured it out......"
Empress Chu smiled bitterly at Emperor Chu: "How can your sons and daughters compare to me and his son." He and I are true love! You're just a fool! ”
Emperor Chu had already planned to leave, but when he heard Empress Chu say that he was with him, he couldn't help but smile: "What a good one!" Then I will fulfill you, go to the underworld and continue your true love! ”
"Someone! Take the queen to Chuhe Palace! ”
Chuhe Palace is the place where the Queen Mother lives, and no one has entered it except for the palace people and eunuchs who serve the Queen Mother.
Even Emperor Chu's own son, Yu An, only saluted in the palace.
The Queen Mother also replied from afar through the screen.
The Queen Mother, who was the concubine of the year, had a difficult birth when she gave birth to Emperor Chu and fell ill.
After Emperor Chu ascended the throne, the queen mother's confinement disease broke out, and she couldn't see the wind or the sun.
Even at night, the courtyard of Chuhe Palace was covered with a layer of black cloth.
Emperor Chu's imperial chariot and the soft sedan chair of the Empress Chu stopped at the gate of Chu and Palace.
Seeing that Emperor Chu was coming, the gatekeeper stepped forward and saluted: "The Queen Mother said, it's okay to put people at the door, and Your Majesty can come to pick it up tomorrow." ”
"You go and pass it on to me, I want to see the Queen Mother."
The gatekeeper shook his head: "The Queen Mother said, people can be put at the door, and Your Majesty can come to pick it up tomorrow." ”
"I also said it, you go and spread it! I want to see the Queen Mother! ”
The gatekeeper shook his head: "The Queen Mother said, people can be put at the door, and Your Majesty can come to pick it up tomorrow." ”
"Bastard!" Emperor Chu pushed the guard away and stepped forward to push the door.
The guards hurriedly stepped forward to block the palace gate: "Your Majesty! The small one is responsible for guarding the door, and if it can't hold it, the small one will die! I also beg Your Majesty to let go of a small way to live! ”
The queen half lay on the soft sedan chair and said with a smile: "Hahahaha, you are so pitiful, what are you talking about in the world, even a gatekeeper doesn't listen to you, you emperor is really pitiful." ”
"Shut up!" Emperor Chu roared, "It is forbidden to make noise outside the harem. ”
"Come in!"
The palace door opened from the inside, and a palace maid said coldly, "The Queen Mother said, since Your Majesty has met the Queen Mother, let's see it." However, this woman can only be at the palace gate. ”
Emperor Chu was stunned for a moment, turned around and glanced at the queen and said to the accompanying palace people: "Take care of her!" Don't let her die! Otherwise you'll all die! ”
"Yes!"
Emperor Chu raised his legs and entered the palace gate.
Entering the courtyard, there was not even a wind lamp lit in the courtyard, and the black cloth covered the glimmer of the crescent moon, making it even darker.
Fortunately, it was bright in the main hall.
Emperor Chu walked into the main hall quickly.
In the past, he stood at the threshold of the main hall and asked for peace against a screen.
Inside the screen, there is still the queen mother he met when he first ascended the throne.
In these years, only the fifteenth day of the new year, he came to say hello once during the New Year's holidays. When you say hello, you just ask a word through the screen.
Coming in this time, Emperor Chu habitually stood outside the screen and stopped: "Queen Mother! Give my son three more days. The son can persuade the queen. ”
"There's no time!" A gloomy female voice floated over from the other side of the screen, "Don't you understand the truth of the speed of soldiers?" Now that they have occupied most of the Chu State, if you delay any longer, you can only be more passive! ”
"Queen Mother!" Emperor Chu lifted his robe and knelt down, "The Qi State side will send troops soon, and the Queen Mother of the Great Zhou side didn't say that she had already scored two chess pieces?" ”
"One is wasted, and another is wobbly! Ma Xu must be removed as soon as possible, otherwise the queen mother will have no way to help you! ”
"Scrapped?" Emperor Chu hurriedly said, "I haven't heard that the crown prince and the third highness of the Great Zhou have an accident." None of them are dead, how can they be abolished? ”
"Don't ask again!" The female voice was displeased, "That medicine man is invincible, and his kung fu is extremely high, so it's not so easy to deal with." Last time there was such a good opportunity, the bunch of rubbish under your command actually let him escape. If you want to get rid of him, you can only start with the people around him! ”
"Queen Mother......" Emperor Chu asked uneasily, "My son just wants to ask, can the person who has been cast by you with a secret technique still recover his senses?" The son actually has a queen in his heart, and the son ......"
"If you are long-winded, this palace will give you a secret technique!"
"Queen Mother...... Emperor Chu stopped when he wanted to say something, knelt on the ground and kowtowed and stood up, "Queen Mother, can my son see you?" ”
After a long time, a long sigh came from behind the screen: "The queen mother is already sixty-three, and her life is coming to an end, so come in if you want to see it." ”
Emperor Chu straightened his robe and slowly bypassed the screen.
Everything behind the screen is the same as when he ascended the throne.
His queen mother was wrapped in a thick cloak and sat cross-legged on a futon.
His hair was scattered, his face was gray, and his delicate face was full of wrinkles.
Twenty years ago, his mother was still in her prime, and her face was like a silver basin.
How did you get old all of a sudden?
Emperor Chu threw himself in front of the Queen Mother and knelt down: "Queen Mother...... How did you get to this? ”
Empress Chu stretched out her hand: "Look! ”
The pale, skinny, bony fingers were crooked and completely deformed.
"The queen mother has confinement disease, not all of them are caused by that slut. It was a bitter winter when the queen mother gave birth to you. That slut actually made the palace people open the doors and windows. The queen mother spent the entire month in the cold wind. Nothing when you were younger. When I get old, all the confinement diseases will come out. Even though the queen mother has paid attention to every care over the years, she can't withstand birth, old age, sickness and death after all! The queen mother has no time......"
As the Queen Mother spoke, two lines of tears flowed from her white and greasy face: "The Queen Mother wants to watch the world unify in her lifetime." The queen mother really doesn't have time! ”
"Queen Mother......" Emperor Chu crawled forward, hesitated again and again but still didn't dare to touch the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, don't you know secret arts?" Why can't you save yourself! What kind of body do you want, my son will help you find it! ”
"It's useless!" The Queen Mother let out a long sigh, "The number of lives is coming to an end, and the secret technique is useless to the palace!" ”
"Queen Mother...... Emperor Chu couldn't help but look up at the Empress Dowager, "Can my son ask a question?" ”
"Just ask!"
"Queen Mother, when my father was dying, I confessed, unite Korea and Qi to check and balance, and keep Dachu. Why did the queen mother rule the four kingdoms? There is a huge disparity in national strength, and Da Chu is no match for Da Zhou. They also sent half of their troops, and Da Chu was already in danger. Even if that evil seed is removed, the soldiers of the Great Zhou will not be able to retreat. If the queen mother had made peace with Da Zhou Yan according to her son's previous plan, Ma Yufeng would have been removed, and Da Chu would not have fallen into such a predicament......"
