Penglai Pavilion is the largest palace in the harem, when the Wei Shu people lived here, it was repaired, so although the Daming Palace has been established for many years, Penglai Pavilion is still brand new. It is called a pavilion, which stands on a high platform and has two floors. In the summer, when you live on the second floor, you only need to open the window to feel the cool breeze blowing away the heat brought by the middle of summer.

Li Longji likes to climb high, but he is not heat-tolerant, and in previous years, he liked to come here in the summer.

Coming here today, he felt cold from the inside out—what he feared most had finally happened.

He clutched the thunderbolt wood and runes tightly in his hands, and his anger made him unable to speak, and he sat loosely on the throne, looking down at the kneeling crowd in the center of the main hall.

The hall was silent, and only the sound of the robes of the enlightened master could be heard as he shivered. Princess Qingyang, Wang Shouyi and all the palace eunuchs all knelt down, but Queen Wang raised her head slightly, standing upright, facing Li Longji with a calm expression.

She thought she would be afraid, plead for sin or beg for mercy, but when the real thing came, not only did she not have any emotional fluctuations, but she also felt relieved.

- This long torment has finally come to an end.

As soon as Wang Shou saw that his sister didn't speak for a long time, he didn't even want to kneel, he didn't feel angry and hateful, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Li Longji shout angrily: "You shut up for me!" ”

Immediately afterwards, Li Longji did not listen to any excuses, raised his hand and sent everyone down: all palace people and eunuchs related to this matter will be removed from all official positions, punished with eighty rods, and punished by the court; According to the relatives, such as the palace is such a personal servant, directly cane to death; Princess Qingyang immediately separated from her husband Wang Shouyi, and went to live in Yuzhenguan, and was not allowed to go out without an edict; As soon as Wang Shou was demoted to Tanzhou, he could get out of Chang'an; Queen Wang's ......

Li Longji was silent, first asked Xiao Jiangyuan to deal with the matter of the eunuchs of the Penglai Pavilion Palace, and then ordered someone to escort Princess Qingyang directly to Yuzhenguan, and Wang Shouyi immediately drove out of the palace.

The hall immediately became noisy, filled with panicked cries. Xiao Jiangyuan came prepared, and immediately ordered a team of guards to drag everyone out of the palace, and he left last, and closed the palace door for Li Longji and Queen Wang very intimately.

In Penglai Pavilion, only the husband and wife were finally left.

said that they were husband and wife, but at the moment they were like strangers.

Li Longji walked up to Wang Jun, raised the rune with one hand, pointed to the words on the rune with the other, and stopped talking several times, he really didn't know where to start, so he said, "Do you have anything else to say to me?" ”

Wang Jun raised his eyes and could see Li Longji's angry and somewhat hurt expression. She understood his anger, but she couldn't figure out where his injuries came from. Didn't he want to abolish her a long time ago, and now that she gave him a chance, he should be happy.

Her gaze turned to the runes, and she suddenly lowered her eyes and smiled self-deprecatingly: "The concubine has nothing to say." ”

Provoked by Wang Jun's such an understatement, Li Longji casually threw the thunderbolt wood. The sound of breaking suddenly sounded, stinging Wang Jun's ears.

She frowned, turned her eyes to look at the broken wood, and sighed, "San Lang wants to hear what the concubine says?" said that the concubine just wanted a child, if it was not a last resort and desperate, how could she do such a stupid thing that was rebellious? Even if the concubine said it, would San Lang believe it? Even if Saburo believes it, will he let me go? ”

"Look at what is written on this rune? Do you just want a child?! ”

"It turns out that I wore this rune, and I intended to subvert Saburo's power and country? So Saburo was not only angry, but also a little hurt and sad...... I wonder if Saburo was disappointed in the queen's infidelity or his wife's dissensibility? And I, should I be ashamed of my trust in the monarch, or should I be grateful to Saburo for still having some husband and wife feelings for me? ”

Li Longji was stunned by Wang Jun's question: "You and I are both emperors and queens, and husbands and wives for many years, so naturally we have both loyalty and affection. ”

"Really?" Wang Jun looked into Li Longji's eyes, "It wasn't until today that I finally understood why San Lang insisted on abolishing the queen - I'm afraid that since the day I was banned, San Lang already had such thoughts, right?" ”

As if he had been poked in the heart, Li Longji avoided Wang Jun's gaze.

Wang Jun smiled lightly: "San Lang can't help but exalt me too much, and he will be worried that I will follow closely and become the second Empress Zetian?" San Lang clearly knows that although I am the queen, I am also San Lang's wife, but unfortunately after so many years of understanding and affection, I can't afford a false suspicion. Today, it just confirms Saburo's worries and suspicions. ”

"After all, in the end, I am no longer Wang Jun, and San Lang is no longer San Lang, I should have ...... clearly" Wang Jun sighed slowly, "As early as when San Lang was the prince and wanted to kill Xiao San Lang in Yang's womb to protect himself, I should have known...... What I really want to do is always just the wife of Li Sanlang, the king of Linzi. ”

As for the Mother of the Nation, the Queen? If it has nothing to do with Li Sanlang, who is rare?

Wang Jun had never said so much to Li Longji, and Li Longji's heart was shaken for a while, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

But that's about it. As early as when he decided to abolish the queen, he was already doomed to today's ending, and now the overall situation has been decided, and there is no room for turnaround.

Wang Jun knew it in his heart, so he took a deep breath and finally knelt down: "The technique of overpowering, the great rebellion, the concubine is willing to accept the guilt, please abolish the saint." The fate of the folk husband and wife is thin, and they can still be separated from each other, and the concubine has nothing else to ask for, but I hope that the saint can look at the husband and wife for many years and leave some dignity and dignity for the concubine. ”

At this point, Li Longji satisfied Wang Jun. Although he abolished Wang Jun as a concubine, he let Wang Jun live in the Gangji Temple, and the queen was treated as before, and there were people who served.

As for the others, they didn't have such a good fate - Wang Shouyi was caught up by an edict from Li Longji on the way to his demotion and died on the spot.

At this time, Wang Jun didn't know about it, she was dressed in white, her long hair was thick, and she was standing in front of Penglai Pavilion without decoration, looking up at this palace steadily. As soon as she shook her head, and turned to leave, she heard a familiar voice coming from behind her:

"The queen stays!"

She turned around, it was Concubine Liu De, with the eldest son and the sixth son of the emperor, hurriedly chasing after her, her eyes were full of tears, and the tears were full of reluctance. Since Concubine Liu Defei spoke out, Zhao Zhaoyi, who was ill, was also helped out by the prince, and the third son of the emperor, who had been raised in front of Wang Jun, went straight to Wang Jun and knelt down, hugged Wang Jun's leg tightly, and cried bitterly.

The rest of the concubines also gradually appeared in front of Penglai Pavilion, surrounding Wang Jun, or like Huangfu Zhaorong endured not to cry, or wiped tears with cuffs like Liu Jieyu, most of the princes and princesses were loved by Wang Jun, and they all pulled Wang Jun's clothes and didn't let them go.

Wang Jun first helped the third prince up, wiped the tears on his face, and then touched the heads of the other children caressingly, although he kept smiling, his eyes couldn't help but become wet. As soon as she raised her head, wanting to force back her tears, she saw that not far away, Concubine Wu Xian, dressed in a red dress, had arrived.

Seeing Wang Jun staring at one place without speaking, everyone followed Wang Jun's gaze, and the sad but warm atmosphere suddenly closed, like dust on the street, which was compacted to the ground by a sudden drizzle.

Concubine Wu Xian was the last to arrive.

She hesitated, but still decided to come over to see Wang Jun, so she had known each other for many years, and it was also a bit of a sisterhood. She knew what kind of exclusion she was about to face in the palace - she didn't care, and she could bear it completely, but she didn't know how Wang Jun would react when she saw her.

She first saluted Wang Jun as before: "Your Highness is well." ”

"I'm already a servant, so you don't have to bow to me." Wang Jun said as he walked towards Concubine Wu Xian step by step.

The concubines and princesses immediately got out of the way, and saw that Wang Jun's steps were getting faster and faster, and when she was about to arrive in front of Concubine Wu Xian, she turned her direction and walked towards the guards on the side.

She pulled out the guard's ceremonial knife, turned over and danced, like a peach blossom on the branches in spring because of the wind, like a pouring rain in summer, like the wind galloping in autumn, and like the snow falling slowly in winter, sometimes moving and sometimes quiet, sometimes slow and sometimes urgent, sometimes soft, sometimes fierce.

Although the concubines knew that Wang Jun knew martial arts, except for the old men who served with Li Longji during the Linzi Dynasty, no one else had seen them, and this was the first and last time. Concubine Wu Xian was also seeing it for the first time, so she looked very focused and serious.

Although Wang Jun's movements are not rusty, her body is not as soft as before, and she will even feel a slight throbbing pain because she exerts too much force. But no matter what she frowned, her lips always smiled.

When the movement stopped, the ritual knife in her hand was pointed right at Concubine Wu Xian!
