Chapter 20 is a sad sob
On the way back to Chenghui Palace, Cui Xuan has been thinking about what she did wrong.
After the incident of the saffron embroidery screen last year, the concubine ordered someone to visit the old maid of the Empress Dowager Liang outside the palace, and framed her son to kill and injure people's lives, and used this as a threat, so that the Zhang family did not dare not drive for themselves. About half a year ago, the concubine secretly stuffed Zhang's daughter Ying'er into the harem and deliberately arranged it into the Qiongxuan Palace.
A few months ago, Imperial Physician Shi reported to the concubine, saying that he had accidentally discovered a poisonous weed, and its poisonous appearance was very similar to the unique broken tail snake of the Zhou Kingdom.
As for the day of the birth of the emperor's eldest son, she specially asked Ying'er to pretend to murder the prince, deliberately discovered by others, and then committed false accusations, and bit the suspicion to death on the Holy Mother. Taking advantage of the chaos in Qiongxuan Palace and the absence of an owner in Jingci Palace, she made the palace maid of Jingci Palace, who had been bought in the morning, mix the poisonous weed powder prepared by Imperial Physician Shi into the daily hand washing medicine used by the Queen Mother.
Cui Xuan repeatedly thought about the master's plan, she watched from the side, and felt that the master had been cautious to the point of foolproof, and even on the night of the Queen Mother's death, the master also deliberately asked people to stare at Qiongxuan Palace all night, and made sure that Shi had slept early that night, and after deciding that no one would see her elsewhere, she asked the people in the imperial dining room to arrange the charge on her.
is so cautious, why did he still fail in the end?
Concubine Xian...... I don't know what the master is, she couldn't have imagined that Cheng Biting Jin, who was killed halfway, would be her.
But Concubine Xian...... Will she really be in cahoots with Concubine De? Haven't the two of them always been together......
Cui Xuan couldn't figure it out.
Outside the palace gate, she beckoned the palace people to help the mother into the inner hall, she looked at the sleeping master, and the fear in her heart was endless, and at this moment, the whole person was still trembling.
She didn't dare to think that if she was in Chongtian Palace, and the master didn't suddenly faint before Sun Zhifang said the mastermind behind the scenes, then at this moment......
"Ahem......"
Suddenly, a soft cough interrupted her thoughts. As soon as Cui Xuan came back to her senses, she saw that the master lying on the bed had already sat up.
Pan Ruohui's eyes are clear, and he is yin, not at all like he has fainted once.
"Ahh Master, you're not ......."
Cui Xuan came to her, and she also reacted at this time, eighty percent, this so-called fainting is just an expedient measure under the master's urgency.
Pan Ruohui was in no mood to explain to her, if she said that on the way back, Cui Xuan pondered all the way in fear and puzzlement, then the noble concubine Niangniang was already in Chongtian Palace, and when Concubine Xian said that Shi Jinyu had been to Xiancui Palace that night, she had already understood everything.
"Huh...... I thought I would be a yellow finch that caught a praying mantis, but I didn't expect it...... I really didn't expect it! β
As she spoke, she slammed her fist on the bed, and her knuckles turned red in an instant.
Cui Xuan snorted, and hurriedly held her hand over and gently said, "Niangniang, what are you doing!" You can't spoil your own body! β
Pan Ruohui snorted coldly and pulled his hand back.
"Xiang Min Dai, Yu Wenrou - this palace is really stupid! I thought that after the incident of the red flower, Jingci Palace, Qiongxuan Palace, and Xiancui Palace all hated each other, and this palace thoughtββ"
She thought that sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, at the right time, with a fire, she could get rid of all her enemies in this palace in one fell swoop.
"Okay...... Sympathy Dai, I actually underestimated her in the past! Pan Ruohui got up and paced, suppressed his anger, and murmured: "It's a pity that this palace prides itself on being smart, but today it is a knife in her hand......"
Like Cui Xuan, she never thought that Yu Wenrou and Xiang Mingdai, these two old enemies, would stand together in order to deal with themselves.
"...... Now, what are we going to do? Cui Xuan followed her, trembling: "Where is the emperor...... Although you are in a hurry, we have escaped a catastrophe for the time being, but Grandpa Sun, Grandpa Sun is bound to listen to all the truth of the trial, will it ......?"
Could it be that if tonight passes, there will be an oracle of condemnation from the Chongtian Palace?
Thinking of this, she shuddered violently and unconsciously glanced in the direction of the temple gate.
"What are you afraid of!" Pan Ruohui snorted, and the light in his eyes became heavier and heavier.
"You go," she closed her eyes and muttered for a moment, and she ordered: "You go to Chongtian Palace and ask the emperor to come over." β
Cui Xuan thought she had misheard.
"...... What are you talking about? She asked, "Your Majesty...... In this case, will the emperor still come? β
Pan Ruohui snorted coldly.
"How many benefits do you think there are to be emperors?" She said: "Do you think that when you become the emperor, you should really cultivate a body of copper skin and iron bones, and you are not afraid of anything?" β
Chongtian Palace pretended to faint, and what she asked for was not just a reprieve.
She didn't know why Xiao Zhu would indulge herself to take a breath, maybe he still had reluctance and feelings for him? Or maybe it's thinking about her daughter......
But in the end, she will let Xiao Chai know what this delay means to her.
Cui Xuan took the words of the master, trembling and trembling on the water trails, ran to Chongtian Palace, half an hour later, the door of Chenghui Palace opened and closed again, Pan Ruohui put down the teacup, looked at it leisurely, and sure enough, he saw the figure he wanted to see.
"The concubine asks Your Majesty for peace, Your Majesty will be happy for a long time."
She changed into warm clothes, slowly went up the wall, and bowed to Yingying, with a comfortable attitude, just like a thousand shots in the Chongtian Palace, which had never happened at all.
Xiao stood with his hands down, staring at her silently, and he was not called rude. Pan Ruohui didn't care, he got up, and first said to Sun Zhifang who came with him with a smile: "Father-in-law Sun will go down first, Cui Xuan will also go down, this palace and Your Majesty have some private words to say between husband and wife, so you don't need to serve here." β
Sun Zhifang's face was very ugly, he glanced at Xiao Zhu, and saw that the emperor did not say anything else, so he frowned, bowed, and slowly retreated.
"Husband and wife......" There was no one else, Xiao Zhufang sneered and said: "Why do you think that after tonight's incident, I and you can still be husband and wife?" β
Pan Ruohui smiled and personally went to serve him a cup of tea, but Xiao Zhu didn't take it, so she put it aside.
"Your Majesty's intentions, the concubines have always understood." She smiled lightly: "You said that you want to set up a concubine as the successor, but this matter has been delayed again and again, and it has not been implemented so far, the concubine privately guessed, thinking about it, there is no such thing as tonight, the Changqiu Palace...... Your Majesty doesn't plan to let the concubines live in it, right? β
Xiao Chai gave her a silent answer.
Pan Ruohui smiled and lowered his head, covering another emotion that flashed in his eyes.
She said: "The concubine understands His Majesty's heart. Never mind. Since you don't want to give, the concubine earns it herself, and it's the same. β
"What do you mean?"
"Didn't she already tell you when she went to Chongtian Palace to invite you? The concubine has done too much evil in her life, and she has some secrets, so instead of taking them to the coffin with hatred, it is better to tell you about them before she dies. β
She said, the deeper the meaning in her eyes gathered more and more, "Maybe you listen to it, sympathize with the concubine, and you can't bear to give the concubine the death penalty." β
Xiao Chai looked at her beautiful eyes, and in a trance, her heart felt like she had been licked by a poisonous snake's letter, and she didn't dare to move for a while.
He had a faint hunch that most of the secrets Pan Ruohui said were ...... It won't be her own secret.
"Ruohui, whose secret are you trying to say?"
He approached her, but his face was relaxed: "Is it me?" β
When his 'Ruohui' shouted out, Pan Ruohui felt momentarily dazed in his heart.
He has a palace full of concubines, and he will gently call 'love concubine' to any one, from beginning to end, only one person is different-
Pei Yao.
He rarely called that person Empress or Zitong, only when he was angry. He would call her by name, her little letters. In the past, Pan Ruohui listened to it for many years, and she always felt that calling out this name was a sign that he was really moved, moved, and vainly trying to get close to him.
From the second year of Yan Ping to the ninth year of Yan Ping, she waited for seven years, and at this moment, he finally called himself like this, but ......
It's not the same, it's not the same.
At this moment, she suddenly understood - even if she was able to stand up and be in Changqiu, in his heart, she and Pei Yaowei were incomparable after all.
"yes."
After a while, she took a deep breath and said with a light smile: "Your Majesty, your secrets, the concubine really remembers too much in her heart, and when she thinks about it at this moment, she really doesn't vomit unpleasantly......
Facing Xiao Zhu's approach, she was not afraid, and asked with inadequacy: "The concubine sometimes thinks about it, but she really doesn't understand-" She stretched out a slender finger and pointed it at his heart, "A person as suspicious as you, how dare you let the concubine help you do so many things and let the concubine know so many secrets about you for so many years?" β¦β¦ Could it be that you expected that your concubine would have a deep love for you, even if she was forced to the edge of the cliff, she would still be determined to you? β
After a pause, Xiao Chai suddenly raised his hand and locked her throat.
"I'm forcing you?" His eyes lit up, and he snorted, "Did I force you to poison the Holy Mother?" Or did I force you to be greedy and covet the next position? β
He came up with a lot of strength, Pan Ruohui's brain was swollen, and in an instant, the flower was already red.
She thought he was going to kill herself.
Xiao Zhu really wanted to kill her like this.
But when he met her eyes, he suddenly became timid.
The moment Pan Ruohui was slammed to the ground, he suddenly understood what it meant to be in a desperate situation.
She laughed stupidly for a long time, put her hands on her neck, and turned her head to look up at him: "Your Majesty doesn't dare, doesn't you?" β
The fierceness in his eyes was revealed, and at this moment, all disguises were completely torn.
Pan Ruohui propped up the ground and struggled to get up.
"Your Majesty don't be afraid, as long as the concubine is by your side, you will never have to be afraid." She said: "Between the emperor and the queen, one and the same. As long as the concubine sits in that position, your secret will always be safe. If the concubine protects you, it also protects the concubine herself. β
It's not enough to live, and at this time, does she dare to ask for a posterior?
Xiao Chai was surprised, and he didn't know what to say.
He asked, "If I kill you now, wouldn't those secrets be safer?" β
Pan Ruohui lowered his eyes and smiled: "But why doesn't the emperor do it?" β
"How did Empress Renyi die back then, and why did so many unborn children in the harem be stillborn...... In this way, if Your Majesty is not afraid to let the people of the world know, especially the Beilin Zhao family, then Your Majesty can kill the concubine at this moment - as soon as the news of the concubine's violent death comes out of this imperial palace, someone will relay the concubine's last words to the people of the world and to the Duke of Yasukuni. β
She said as she took his hand and put it against her neck.
"If you can die at your hands, the concubine will have no complaints."
Xiao Zhu moved his palm and slapped her hard.
The gate of Chenghui Palace, as soon as it opened and closed, the noble concubine in the palace stroked the slap marks on her face, turned her eyes, and slowly looked at Changqiu Palace.
