Killing the King (3)
Chapter 182: Killing the King (3)
Some people outside heard the voice of Xichen and asked, "Is the emperor awake?" Is the emperor okay? ”
Chu Xichen said to the outside: "It's okay, it's a false alarm, everyone go back!" ”
Shen Wan heard the sound of her clothes, those adults must have retreated, right? It's just a moment of effort, but Shen Wan feels that half a century has passed.
Someone came in, Shen Wan raised her head and saw a small pebble.
"You!" Shen Wan stood up angrily, but Chu Xichen pulled her to sit down and said, "Don't be angry." ”
Xiaoshizi poured a cup of tea and put it next to the bed, and quietly retreated.
Shen Wan only felt sad, and she couldn't imagine that the person she should trust the most left by her sister had betrayed her.
"How does the emperor want to punish his concubines? Dethrone? Or is it just death? ”
Chu Xichen didn't answer and asked, "Don't you want to know what happened?" ”
Shen Wan looked at him, and he said: "Originally, Xiaoshizi did poison my wine, but when I picked up the wine glass, he knelt down and begged for death. Wan Wan, although he was left to you by Shen Yuan, you forgot that he has served me for so many years. ”
Shen Wan sneered: "Does the emperor want to say that Gonggong Shi's conscience has been discovered?" ”
Chu Xichen still didn't answer, but asked Shen Wan: "You hate me so much?" Do you have to kill me? ”
Shen Wan took a deep breath and said, "You should have guessed that I couldn't let go of my hatred!" ”
Chu Xichen nodded lightly and said, "I know, but you just said that I killed your family and took away the throne of the Xichao Dynasty and your ......."
Shen Wan hurriedly said: "Don't get involved in Xichao, he doesn't know about this matter!" ”
Chu Xichen looked at her and smiled sadly, and said, "I know. However, I only admit to killing your family and taking you away, and I am not willing to admit to taking away the throne of Xi Dynasty. ”
Shen Wan suddenly changed color, and said coldly: "Your Majesty, why bother? Things have come to this point, why don't you admit it? ”
Chu Xichen stared at her and didn't speak for a long time.
Shen Wan knelt down and said coldly: "If you become a king and lose a concubine, the emperor will have a happy concubine!" ”
Chu Xichen stretched out his hand, put it on the back of her cold hand, and said, "I said, I forgive you." ”
Shen Wan's heart beat suddenly, and she rushed to say, "But, I want to kill you!" ”
Chu Xichen smiled meaninglessly and said, "If you don't kill me, it will be difficult to eliminate your hatred for me, you kill me, forgive me." Well, I forgive you too. ”
Shen Wan's breathing was about to suffocate, as if a piece of lead was blocking her chest, and she couldn't speak. After a long time, she spoke: "What if, I still want your life in the future?" ”
Chu Xichen shook his head and said, "You won't." With that, he frowned and covered his chest with his hands.
Shen Wan exclaimed: "Cherish the dust! ”
Chu Xichen's face was a little pale, and he said with a forced smile: "That poison is really powerful, I only touched my lips slightly, and a skill like mine can actually be injured......"
"Cherish the dust......" Shen Wan lowered her head and cried again.
He gently lifted her face and wiped away the tears on her face, but his heart hurt again, he frowned, and his voice trembled: "I like it very much, you call my name......"
She cried more and more, and in the end, she could only be taken away from the Qiangong, and when she returned to the Chen Palace, she untied the sachet on her body that never left her body and threw it into the charcoal basin.
Cui Shanggong asked puzzledly: "Niangniang, this is?" ”
Shen Wan said softly with red and swollen eyes: "No need, I want to have a child of my own." ”
Cui Shanggong bowed, didn't say anything, and quietly retreated.
The lamps were still lit in the Qiangong, and the poison of the dust was not deep, so he forced it out a little by himself, drank a bowl of medicine, and felt much better.
Xiao Shizi hurriedly walked in and said, "Your Majesty, Chen Ronghua asks to see you." ”
Xichen frowned: "What is she doing at such a late hour?" ”
"Chen Ronghua is worried about the dragon body of the saint, so he has to see the saint."
Xichen just wanted to ask her to go back, but remembered that she was pregnant, so she had to say, "Let her in." ”
Chen Ronghua walked in, knelt down in front of Xichen, his eyes were full of tears, and he choked up and called: "Your Majesty, ......"
Chu Xichen doesn't like women to cry, if it was Shen Wan, he would comfort him, and change to another woman, he just frowned and said, "Don't cry, aren't I fine?" The woman, after all, was pregnant with his child, and he beckoned to her and motioned to come to him.
Touching the bulging lower abdomen, a long-lost warmth appeared on Xichen's face, and he asked softly, "How many months?" ”
Chen Ronghua wiped his tears and said in a low voice: "It's been five months, and the doctor has checked the pulse and said it's a boy." ”
Xichen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good." ”
Chen Ronghua knelt on the step and kowtowed, crying: "Your Majesty, the concubines have something to ask for!" ”
"What's the matter?"
"Concubine...... The concubine thought that this child was born and raised by herself. She cried and cried.
Xichen said in surprise: "No one said that you won't be allowed to raise children!" When you give birth to a child and your status improves, you naturally have the right to raise the child yourself. ”
Chen Ronghua cried even more and said, "But...... But the queen ...... She said that the child would come to her name. ”
Xichen frowned again: "Nonsense, won't the queen have a child herself!" ”
Chen Ronghua cautiously glanced at his face, and said in a low voice: "Queen, she doesn't want to have children, she has been using contraception......"
Xichen was stunned at first, and then said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about!" ”
Chen Ronghua hurriedly explained: "The concubine didn't talk nonsense, in fact, since she was in the palace, the concubine learned some spices, and knew that the sachet that the queen mother carried with her had cold spices, and the queen mother had studied spices so much, she must know what was inside!" Besides, she said that she wanted the concubine's child, and the concubine guessed...... Maybe, maybe it's the queen she doesn't want to give birth to a dragon son for the emperor. ”
Chu Xichen only felt cold, like falling into an ice cellar, for a long time, he waved his hand weakly: "You go down." ”
Chen Ronghua left and walked out of the palace gate, and immediately a little eunuch stepped forward and whispered in her ear.
Chen Ronghua raised his eyebrows and asked, "You heard it right?" ”
The little eunuch nodded hurriedly and said, "The slave won't hear it wrong!" The slave followed Gonggong Shi, and heard the queen say that she was going to kill the emperor, and asked the emperor to forgive her! ”
"Then what did the emperor say?"
"The emperor said that he forgave the queen."
Chen Ronghua was irritable in his heart, gave the little eunuch a piece of gold, and said coldly: "You have done a good job of spreading the news - the news of the queen's attempt to assassinate the emperor!" ”
"Minions obey! Niangniang gave birth to the dragon seed and became the prince, but don't forget the slave. ”
Chen Ronghua's small face flashed with a smile: "This is natural! Go for it! ”
"Xie Niangniang!"
