"What do you mean, some officials in the imperial court are from the Shadow Pavilion?" Li Qingqing asked.

Red Aya nodded, "That's right. ”

The corners of Li Qingqing's mouth raised slightly, if this was the case, it gave her inspiration.

"Now, can you spare my life?" Red Aya asked eagerly.

Li Qingqing glanced at Gongsun Fu, Gongsun Fu's face was serious, and he didn't want to spare her.

Li Qingqing looked at Hong Aya, "See, it's not that I don't want to let you go, it's that Mr. doesn't want me to let you go!" ”

"You, you, you don't believe in your word!" Red Aya was shocked and angry, and wanted to tear the two apart.

However, her skills are not as good as others, where are other people's opponents, so Hong Aya has no time to worry about them, so she turns around and has to run.

Li Qingqing threw a stone over, in the middle of the joint, Hong Aya stumbled and fell to the ground, was captured by Li Qingqing on the spot, captured back to the palace, and was taken care of by Mama Zhang.

……

There is news from the palace that the empress is getting weaker and weaker, and I am afraid that she will not survive tonight, so she wants Li Qingqing to go.

Li Qingqing drove to the palace overnight, and when she arrived, the empress was already angry.

The prince of Dongping took the first step to accompany him, and Li Qingqing took a step back to catch up, the empress was already weak at this time and didn't even have the strength to open her eyes, so she closed her eyes and felt that Li Qingqing was coming, and she wanted to say something but couldn't say it.

Dongping knew that their mother and daughter had something to say, so they took the first step to retreat.

Li Qingqing held the empress's hand and looked at her worriedly.

The empress's fingers moved slightly, but her eyes remained closed, and she did not speak.

The mother and daughter stayed with each other silently until late at night.

At this time, Li Qingqing suddenly realized that the mother emperor would die soon, should she call her father, although the mother emperor said before that she didn't need her father to come, but no matter what the reason, the two of them are dying and they don't have so much hatred.

Even if two strangers see one of them die soon, out of kindness, let's take a look at the assembly.

Thinking of this, Li Qingqing stood up, and the empress's hand in her hand moved slightly, as if she wanted to stop it, but because of her lack of strength, she couldn't stop it.

Li Qingqing didn't notice it, but quickly put her mother's hand into the quilt, then got up and went to write a letter in front of the imperial case, and then called Gonggong Feng.

"Quick, send someone to deliver this letter immediately!"

"Yes!"

"Wait!"

Li Qingqing thought about who should send this letter to be safer?

Originally, Xue Guang, as the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard, was the closest to her, and he expressed his loyalty, so it was most suitable for him to go. But Xue Guang had already been eliminated by Emperor Mu Zhengjun. Although the current palace guards are all credible people, she is not at ease after all.

The deputy commander Xue Guang died, and the commander Cao Xun is now transferred to his own general's mansion, Gongsun Fu, Ren Fei and others are all in the palace, too far from the palace, and the envelope was changed on the way from the palace to the palace.

After thinking about it, Li Qingqing remembered someone.

"Let Brother Dongping go."

The prince of Dongping knows martial arts, is cautious, and knows how to adapt to situations should not be a problem.

Gonggong Feng nodded and immediately sent the letter to the prince of Dongping.

Li Qingqing came back to the front of the collapse, holding her mother's hands tightly, but at this time, Li Qingqing found that her mother's hands were a little cold, and suddenly her heart was scolded, and an ominous premonition came to her heart, "Mother Emperor, Mother Emperor!" ”

Li Qingqing didn't know what to do, so she could only scream over and over again, but tears came out of her screaming, "Mother Emperor, Mother Emperor!" ”

With the movement of her fingers, the empress opened her mouth with difficulty, "It's noisy, I'm not deaf, why are you so loud!" ”

Li Qingqing was stunned, her emotions were about to toss and turn between extreme sadness and joy, she almost didn't cry, she hurriedly covered her crying, and looked at her with a smile.

"Aren't I afraid that you will fall asleep and not play with me!"

"You're such a big person, do you want your mother to coax you like a child?"

"It's okay, you didn't coax me when I was a kid anyway, and now it's time to make up for the regrets of my childhood."

The empress sneered, her voice was very weak, but it was very in line with her character, "I'm tired, sleep, you can retreat." ”

"I have a surprise for you, don't you want to see it?" Li Qingqing was afraid that her mother would never wake up again from this sleep, so she desperately came up with various ideas to drag her.

However, the empress was too tired and sleepy, and after a while, she said that she would really fall asleep.

"Mother!" Li Qingqing called her softly, but the empress did not answer.

Li Qingqing's fear just now came up again, "Mother Emperor, I sent someone to call my father, don't you want to meet him?" ”

The empress did not respond.

Li Qingqing suddenly felt that something was wrong, raised her hand tremblingly, and when her fingers touched the empress's forehead, the cold feeling made her heart skip a beat, and she subconsciously withdrew her hand, this time the tears could no longer be held back, and the tide struck.

"Mother, Dad is on his way here, take a look at it when you arrive. Mother Empress! ”

"Imperial Doctor, come here, quickly pass on the Imperial Doctor!" Li Qingqing staggered to his feet and opened the door to call someone.

The palace people waiting outside the door didn't wait for Li Qingqing to open the door, and they had already rushed to pass the imperial doctor.

By the time the imperial physician came with the medicine box, the empress had already died, and after the imperial physician took the pulse, she knelt down directly and did not speak again for a long time.

Li Qingqing knew that the mother queen was gone, and two lines of tears fell again.

In this life, her feelings of love and hate for her mother seem to have turned into regrets from this moment on. I regret that I didn't accompany her well, I regret that I didn't solve the relationship between mother and daughter, and I regret that I didn't have time to ask the answers to many things I wanted to ask, and people couldn't come back.

The empress died, and according to the national law of the Great Qi Kingdom, the new emperor usually succeeded to the throne first and then ascended the throne.

The so-called first succession is to deal with all kinds of affairs as the emperor first, first let the hundred officials kneel and bow to the ministers, and then choose a good day and auspicious day to hold the enthronement ceremony.

The empress died, and the news spread out of the palace one after another and to the mansions of various officials. The civil and military officials rushed to the palace overnight, first to investigate the first emperor, and then knelt down to worship the new emperor.

Li Qingqing stood outside the hall where the empress's coffin was placed, and the civil and military officials knelt down one after another, "The ministers will meet the new emperor!" ”

"Wait for the new emperor to meet the new emperor!"

The figure fell in the moonlight, dragging out a long shadow.

Li Qingqing's face was expressionless, his eyes kept staring at the front blankly, and there was no focus.

It was a little inappropriate for the ministers to kneel down for a long time, and Gonggong Feng cautiously came up to remind, "Your Majesty, it's time to shout flat." ”

Li Qingqing came back to his senses and raised his sleeves, "Flatten." ”

The ministers stood up.

At this time, the prince of Dongping and brought people in, hesitated and anxious, the two did not stop along the way, although the palace stipulates that horses cannot be ridden, but at this time can only make an exception, the guards guarding the door still want to block, and Dongping flicked his sleeves and threw out, leaving a sentence, "What is the matter, I will bear it alone!" ”

And the guard did not hinder him.
