Chapter 407: One Corpse, Two Lives (1)
In the darkness of the night, the rain became more and more anxious, pouring down from the inky black clouds, crackling and smashing on the roof of the temple, resounding unnoticed. The dim palace lamp under the eaves was flickered on and off in the storm, like the gaze of Beishan Xiaoze, dark and dangerous.
He had already vaguely guessed something in the unjoyful voices of the Taiyi Wenpo and others, in this uneasy atmosphere, his patience had reached the limit, and he couldn't wait for Mama Tan to take the child out, and stepped forward and kicked open the door of the temple.
Bang! It instantly lifted everyone's hearts!
Mama Tan inside had the courage to wrap the child, and was so shocked by this that she almost threw the child on the ground. Seeing Beishan Xiaoze, she knelt down as soon as her legs were weak: "Your Majesty...... Child, this child ......"
Not to mention whether the queen's life can be saved, her life may be confessed tonight!
"Don't bring the child over to me yet!"
Lady Yuan glanced at the Queen Mother, stepped forward and picked up the child from the limp Mama Tan, turned around and walked towards everyone outside the hall, but stopped inside the door and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the slave and maid beg you to retire from the palace." ”
Beishan Xiaoze's pupils shrank slightly, and the hand in the sleeve of his robe couldn't help but tremble slightly, and he waved his sleeves fiercely: "Get out of the idle people!" ”
The palace people who were waiting around heard the rumors and wanted to grow four legs out of thin air and evacuate the queen's bedroom as quickly as possible. Even the crown princess subconsciously stood in the corner, and couldn't help but be frightened.
Yang Chengzhi was secretly horrified when he heard this, and immediately whispered to his apprentice: "Lock up all the people who have seen the child, and the others will be temporarily expelled from the Yuanhe Palace." ”
The little chamberlain didn't dare to hesitate when he heard this, and immediately went to do it, but he knew in his heart that the life of the person who had seen the child would be difficult to protect, but fortunately he had been following behind the master and cautiously did not step forward.
A thunderbolt in the air illuminated the heavens and the earth, and also illuminated the child in Lady Yuan's arms, and Beishan Xiao saw a face that looked very much like himself, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned. He walked a few steps and saw that although the child's cry was weaker, it didn't seem to be a big problem, but the shape of the swaddling clothes was a little strange.
Seeing this, Lady Yuan didn't care about the baby's ability to prevent the wind from blowing, and opened the small brocade embroidered with auspicious patterns slightly, revealing the child's whole body.
As if being pricked by a needle in the nerve, the moment Kitayama Xiaonori's eyes fell on the baby, his whole body trembled uncontrollably!
The baby boy who is crying faintly is clearly missing a hand and a foot! And in the position where it should have grown hands and feet, a long-dead baby grew firmly on him, like a monster parasitic on a human body! And it's half the size of another child! They grow together and are inseparable!
"Ahhh......h
The Crown Princess Yue couldn't help but let out a frightened scream! Immediately, the prince's hand tightly covered his mouth and nose! The screaming stopped abruptly, as if the living person suddenly lost his breath, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable! The heart, liver and lungs are all itching, and I want to scratch it immediately!
Beishan Xiao's face turned blue, his whole body trembled uncontrollably, he pointed to the deformed child in swaddling clothes, and was speechless in fright.
The Queen Mother's eyes widened, even if she lived at such an age, from the princess, to the queen, to the queen mother, and experienced the harem of three generations of emperors, she had never seen such a frightening thing!
Everyone froze in place for a moment, as if their feet were rooted in the ground, and they were pinched by something, unable to make a sound.
Even Princess Miao Zhen, who had been mentally prepared, stared directly at the child, full of horror and fear. She knew that the child in the queen's womb would inevitably not grow normally, and even if she could be born, she would not survive, but she didn't expect that she was really a twin in her belly, and she became what she is now!
The rain was noisy, and countless flowers and plants were broken in the mud. The wind blew the two open doors and shook slightly, making a soft noise, and the faint voice of a woman could be heard from inside, but it was insignificant in such a noisy rain that it was impossible to hear the contents at all.
Empress Wang's blood had been stopped, and Imperial Physician Zhu stood not far from the bed, hanging his head deadly, even if he was the only one who heard what Queen Wang said, he was indifferent, and stood there like a log. It seems that as long as he moves, he will be the first to be beheaded by Kitayama Xiaoze.
It seemed that because the hall had been silent for too long, the strange atmosphere finally attracted the attention of the queen and the queen, she had lost too much blood and was weak, but because of the weakening of the pain, she regained some sense, and her voice became more and more urgent: "What about the child? What about my child? ”
This urging finally brought everyone's nerves to life, and the horror on Kitayama Xiao's face gradually turned into hatred and disgust that penetrated deep into the bone marrow.
"Dispose of this monster immediately!"
In the dead silence, although Beishan Xiaoze deliberately suppressed his voice, it inevitably let the queen in the palace catch this only answer, and her eyes widened in disbelief: "Monster? What monster? ”
She struggled to get up, weakness and dizziness slowing her movements, but she struggled to get up from the bed.
If it was in the past, Mama Tan would have stepped forward to support Queen Wang, but she was only half-open at this time, slowly turning her neck, looking around in confusion, and the light curtain that was blown up in the hall was like a spirit flag, slowly beckoning to her.
Queen Wang's middle clothes were covered with blood, and she staggered out of the inner hall, and saw that Lady Yuan was holding the swaddling clothes in her hands, and she didn't know where she got the strength, so she walked quickly to the front: "Give me the child!" ”
Female Officer Yuan didn't have time to react, and she snatched the baby boy from her hand, but in the next moment, almost at the same time, when her eyes fell on the child's deformed body, her face suddenly turned pale, and suddenly her body trembled, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. Sprayed the baby in his arms all over his face!
Seeing this, Beishan Xiao finally couldn't bear it: "Yang Chengzhi! What are you waiting for! ”
Yang Chengzhi was startled and hurriedly stepped forward, she thought that Queen Wang would struggle, but she didn't expect to easily snatch the child from her hands. And the queen's gaze suddenly became stunned after the child took off his hand, his body stiffened, and he fell straight backwards, the prince was the first to react, he couldn't care about anything else, and rushed up with an arrow step, which could be supported, "Queen Mother!" Queen mother! ”
At this time, everyone present couldn't describe the mood at the moment, and Beishan Xiaoze's complexion couldn't be described with difficulty, Yang Chengzhi didn't dare to delay, wrapped the baby boy in his arms, and retreated quickly.
No one spoke out to stop them, because no one knew what to do with such a child if they stayed.
The Queen Mother closed her eyes, spit out a breath of turbidity, and said, "The Imperial Doctor hasn't come over to treat the Queen in a hurry!" ”
The imperial physician who was trembling in the corner finally couldn't hide, and crawled to the queen to investigate, but the next moment, the imperial doctor Zhu said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, the queen mother, she ...... It's gone! ”
In the North Hell Palace, in the Yuanhe Palace, it became dead silence again! Queen Wang, it's just gone?
The prince gasped a few times, glanced at the silent queen mother in his arms, and scolded loudly: "Imperial Doctor Zhu, don't talk nonsense, the queen mother just stopped breathing for a while!" Why don't you hurry up and let the queen wake up! ”
Imperial Physician Zhu was already scared of death, but when he was scolded by the prince like this, he was almost a master of the six gods: "Your Highness, Weichen doesn't dare to bully the king!" The queen mother, she ...... It's really lifeless......"
The prince said sadly: "Queen Mother! What's wrong with you, Queen Mother, wake up and look at your sons! You'll be fine, Queen Mother! Erchen is guarding here, you will be fine! ”
If this weren't in the royal family, everyone would almost really be moved by the prince, but unfortunately, this is the royal family, and there is no real flesh and blood affection. He was made the crown prince by virtue of his identity as a concubine, but in fact he didn't have many outstanding talents, and the forces around him all relied on the planning of the queen, if she was gone, what would the prince do? !
Imperial Physician Zhu stubbornly glanced up at Beishan Xiaoze, and saw that he was staring straight at the corpse of Queen Wang, so he said: "When Queen Fang Cai gave birth, she had already lost the blood she was looking at, and Fang Cai just stood up for a while, and she couldn't help but stimulate ......."
The sudden death of the mother of a country is already a major event involving the imperial court.
What I thought was a good day was a joke from the beginning! What kind of heavenly man was born, it is simply a disaster from heaven, if people know that the queen is actually left with such a freak, and it spreads, it will damage the reputation of the saint at the least, and it may be detrimental to the state affairs at the worst!
The crown prince seemed to have only now realized the fact that the queen was powerless to return to heaven, and his face was full of sadness. Beishan Xiaoze's face became more and more cold, and he said coldly: "Queen Wang can't bear the auspicious aura of heaven and man, and unfortunately one corpse and two lives!" His gaze swept over the people in front of him one by one, and said word by word: "Yang Chengzhi, you go and arrange it immediately, today's matter, no words will be allowed to circulate!" ”
The imperial physician and Wen Po and others who delivered the baby for the queen immediately understood what he meant, and immediately wept and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, spare your life! The villain must be tight-lipped as a bottle. ”
"Your Majesty, the slave will never confide half a word! Your Majesty's life! ”
However, Beishan Xiao only had a cold face, and raised his hand weakly, Yang Chengzhi immediately understood, and asked someone to take them all down.
"Queen Mother, the queen has suffered this misfortune, the harem has no owner, and she can only hand over the follow-up funeral to Concubine Jia, if you think there is anything wrong, you must supervise one or two."
The Queen Mother nodded silently, and looked at Princess Miao Zhen, who looked slightly stunned, afraid that she didn't expect things to come to such a point, and everything could only be prepared from now on.
Outside the palace, the rain continued unabated, almost to cover the sky and wash away all the filth, and the news of the death of the queen spread throughout Kyoto overnight. Tonight, many will have a sleepless night, and many forces will be reunited and dispersed.
There is Jiang Mama in the Gongsun Mansion, so she can naturally know the situation more realistically than others, and at this time, almost all the people who have the right to speak in the clan are gathered in the Songtao Pavilion, and the atmosphere is unprecedentedly depressing.
"I didn't expect Queen Wang to be so sudden...... It's not expected. Gongsun Qifeng looked at the old man and said, "Lan Yatou's family affairs can't be delayed any longer." ”
