Chapter One Hundred and One
The palace maid immediately knelt down, lowered her head and said timidly, "If you go back to the concubine, it is the slave maid, it is the slave maid who accidentally took the wrong bad meal, the slave maid must be careful next time, and she will never make such a mistake again." ”
Luluo only glanced at Zhou Guifei and didn't say anything and refused to kneel, although she was a slave, she was also a slave who was loyal to her master, Zhou Guifei had harmed the queen, so Luluo hated her to the core.
Concubine Zhou's sharp eyes moved to the palace maid, "Raise your head." ”
The palace maid raised her head slightly, but before she could fully lift herself, Zhou Guifei immediately slapped her, and the palace maid covered her face and continued to beg for mercy. Zhou Guifei is not a master to be messed with, so she waved her hand and said firmly, "Come on, drag this sinner out and behead it!" ”
"Fake!" Pothos whispered.
Zhou Guifei didn't want to be as knowledgeable as the pothos, but what kind of climate can a maid become, she wants to catch all the masters inside.
Zhou Guifei dragged her bewitching figure into it while saying in a strange manner: "Today is my sister's birthday, why does my sister have a sad face?" ”
The queen looked at her disdainfully, and said coldly: "What does my birthday have to do with you? ”
"I haven't seen my sister for a few months, and my sister is still so sharp-toothed, do you know why the letters she wrote to His Majesty are gone?"
The queen did not secretly sneer: "I expected that you must be the one who is the obstruction!" ”
Seeing that the queen didn't say secret words, Zhou Guifei became even more angry, and leaned into the queen's ear and said softly, "Your Majesty has ordered the whole city to be wanted by His Royal Highness King Yi, and your old friend may die soon!" ”
The queen's sharp eyes flashed, and she directly looked at the evil eyes of the concubine last week, "You framed me and caused me to fall to this point, I can understand that you have Your Majesty in your heart, so you want to get rid of me, but why do you want to embarrass His Royal Highness, what is your purpose?" ”
"Does Niangniang remember Xiao Wu?"
The queen was puzzled: "Xiao Wu? ”
Perhaps because of the sad matter, Zhou Guifei became more emotional, and her tone became much heavier, "Niangniang is really a noble person who forgets things, a year ago, Tianyue sent troops to Xiliang, and he died in the hands of your Xiliang people."
Speaking of Empress Xiliang, she immediately recalled, and said thoughtfully, "Are you talking about Commander Xiao?" ”
"My sister finally remembered!"
"I grew up with Xiao Wu, we are in love, we have already made a private agreement for life, we agreed that he will propose to my father after returning from this crusade against Xiliang." Zhou Guifei straightened up as she spoke, pacing back and forth in the hall, "Later, everyone came back, but he couldn't come back, I know that he is strong in martial arts, how can a mere crusade against a Xiliang die?" I spent all my connections and finally learned from the soldiers who fought that he had gone to the king's tent in Xiliang to spy on the military and died outside the king's tent. You Xiliang are all shameless people to bully more and less, if it weren't for you Xiliang, I would have married Xiao Wu a long time ago, it was the Xiliang people who ruined my happiness, and now that Xiliang has been destroyed, I have to seek revenge from you! ”
The queen was stunned as if she was listening to a play, listening to Zhou Guifei tell her words and words about experiences similar to her own, speaking of which Zhou Guifei, who was arrogant and domineering, and seemed to have everything, was just a person who couldn't be loved, thinking of this, the queen smiled unconsciously.
This was originally a story that made people want to cry, but she laughed, Zhou Guifei was a little angry and puzzled, and asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”
The queen said: "I laugh at the injustice of this world, I laugh at this fate to make people, I laugh at you for being more pathetic than me." Do you know that Commander Xiao didn't die at the hands of our Xiliang people at all. He had a bad character, colluded with the Huns while colluding with Xiliang, leaked the Tianyue military information to Xiliang but ignored the Huns, and finally was killed by the Huns with a bowl of water, and finally threw his body outside the tent of the king of Xiliang to slander our Xiliang. ”
"Do you think I will believe you just by your words, you are a Xiliang person, of course you help the Xiliang people speak, who doesn't know that the Xiongnu and Xiliang formed an alliance at that time, they were grasshoppers on a rope, and the allies who plotted to kill themselves were not good for the Xiongnu."
"Xiao Wu is a native of Tianyue, if he dies outside the king's tent in Xiliang, Tianyue will definitely not let us go Xiliang, Xiliang is decadent, even if the Xiongnu are defeated, half of the territory on the border of Tianyue is also the Xiongnu, this is a business that does not break the price. I am from Xiliang, and I know everything about Xiliang clearly, and His Majesty is afraid of King Yi, so he always sends people to monitor every move in the barracks, and I will know some news more or less when I follow His Majesty all year round. Now that I've fallen so far, it's hopeless to return to the palace, why do I want to lie to you? ”
I have to say that what the queen said is indeed reasonable, the words are closely linked, Zhou Guifei and the queen are not all the way, but Zhou Guifei can only count all the grievances on the queen's head, she calculated all this carefully, but in the end it was a failure. She seemed to begin to understand the smile on the queen's face, and seemed to understand what fate was in her mouth.
Zhou Guifei's expression was undecided, and the hatred for the queen in her eyes did not decrease at all, but her tears fell and she thought, "Could it be that I hate the wrong person, it was the Huns who killed Xiao Lang, it was the Huns, the Huns......"
After all, there is another poor person in the world, and the deep palace is a palace that devours people after all, and the delicate women who are in their prime walk in happily, and when they go out, they have already been gnawed to the point that there are no bones left.
We disguised ourselves as ordinary people and hid in Tibet all the way, tossing and turning, and before we could get close to Huancheng, we were attacked by many people, but fortunately, we were not injured because of Chu Mu's protection.
Now the walls of the city are full of Chu Muxiu's wanted notices, the city gate is heavily guarded, it is not feasible for them to break through with many people, and the Yiwang Mansion will definitely not be able to go back, so they stayed in an inconspicuous inn nearby.
Qian Che didn't come back, we knew that he must have been exposed, and now that his life and death are uncertain, we are anxious.
We cautiously stayed at the inn, and did not dare to go out except for some food. To be honest, I was scared in my heart, this kind of hiding and hiding days was really difficult, but I didn't dare to ask or complain, Chu Muxiu must have been anxious in his heart.
There are all kinds of dishes on the table, but I don't have any appetite, Mo'er doesn't move chopsticks, who knows what we will face after eating this meal, maybe this is our last reunion dinner.
Chu Muxiu put a piece of snowflake chicken in my bowl and said, "It's been a long time since I have eaten properly, eat quickly, I will take care of things outside." ”
I muttered and smiled at him, and then stuffed the snowflake chicken into his mouth, he was always so calm and calm, not shaken by anything, but he was unusually calm when he should be in a hurry, although it was so, but the result was satisfactory every time.
Chu Muxiu sat in the guest room and drank tea leisurely, as if he was waiting for someone, and every time he was bored, he liked to drink tea to pass the time.
Sure enough, after a while, a black-clothed masked man looked left and right, cautiously groped his way into the guest room, and Chu Muxiu also seemed to be waiting for him, as soon as the person came in, Chu Muxiu subconsciously stood up, I don't think he looked like a bad person, he pulled down his mask and knelt down on one knee and said, "See Your Highness!" ”
"General Luo doesn't have to be polite." Chu Muxiu hurriedly stepped forward to help the man up.
I haven't seen General Luo Chuan before, but I occasionally heard that he came from a cold family, Chu Muxiu used to value him very much, and he had the grace to promote him, and then he relied on his own efforts little by little to sit down to today's general of the country.
"What's the situation in Huancheng now?"
"Your Majesty sent troops all the way to attack the north of the south, although many cities were recovered, but the soldiers fought bitterly, even if the people were angry in their hearts, they dared not speak out. His Royal Highness is a dragon and phoenix, brave and wise, quite a general, such as today's turbulent situation in the Vietnamese Dynasty, His Majesty's governance of the country and mediocrity, the generals in the army look forward to the return of His Royal Highness day and night, and the ministers swear to follow His Highness to the death, and implore His Highness to come back and preside over the overall situation! ”
General Luo is affectionate and has the world in his heart, Chu Muxiu felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and asked, "How many of our own soldiers are in the army?"
"Except for the royal Feather Forest Army, half of the camp is our men."
Chu Muxiu hid his hand behind him, pacing thoughtfully as he paced, "Half the chance?" With my understanding of Chu Hanyuan, he knew that I would come back sooner or later, and he must have already designed all this, and the road ahead was another bloody storm, and I was afraid that this battle would not be easy to fight. ”
"Although the road ahead is dangerous, for the safety and livelihood of the people of Tianyue, he is willing to go to the soup!" General Luo's words are emphasized, and he looks like he is at home.
Mo'er and I were both listening on the side, and when they heard half of it, Mo'er couldn't hold back any longer, and her tears were almost falling, and she asked anxiously, "Has the general ever seen Qianche?" ”
"I won't tell you that Qianche's identity has been exposed, and now he has been imprisoned, but although you have suffered some flesh and skin, you have no worries about your life for the time being."
"Chu Hanyuan wants to use Qian Che as bait to lure me forward."
"Your Majesty has been increasing taxes year after year, and is only concerned about expanding the land, the people are struggling to make a living, and their lives are miserable, and the ministers really can't bear it, so I implore Your Highness to send troops to preside over the overall situation!"
They said a lot of general things about politics, which I barely understood, except that the situation was not optimistic. When he couldn't make a decision, Chu Muxiu glanced at me, and his eyes seemed to be waiting for my answer, in fact, I knew that he had already made a decision in his heart, but he just owed me an affirmation.
I nodded solemnly at him, it was probably the most certain and correct decision I had ever made in my life.
"General Luo listens to orders!"
"Your Highness, please."
"My current identity is incapacitated, you go back to the barracks to secretly gather the officers and soldiers of our army and pay attention to Chu Hanyuan's every move at the same time, if he has any movement, inform me as soon as possible, I still have some close friends who share my wishes in the rivers and lakes, if there is no change, you will wait for me at the South City Gate with your brothers in three days, and you should understand so much hatred for so many years."
Looking at his resolute appearance, I think I should be happy, I want to hide the secret in my heart forever, if he knows that my life is short, he will definitely drop everything here to help me find an antidote, he has the world in mind, for the welfare of the people is his life's desire, he has his ambitions, how can I be willing to let him give up his good future for me? I just want to live a little longer, I want to see the day he wins, I want to enjoy the joy of that moment with him, I always think that this is not too much.
