Chapter 24: Decades of Poison

On the day of September 13 of the 29th year of Dayan Yonglong, a lot happened.

Yonglong Emperor Murong Zhao finally came to his senses after a few days of sudden illness and delirium. Although his body was still very weak, he had regained his former majesty, which made the queen Xia, who personally served the soup and the sick, panic in her heart.

"The queen has something on her mind?" After retreating, leaving only Fang Qing to wait, the emperor suddenly asked. The voice was soft and weak, but it was cold, emotionless.

"The concubine is worried about the emperor's dragon body." The queen replied, tears flashing in her eyes at the right time.

The emperor sighed, "Human destiny is determined, even if I am the Son of Heaven, the number of destiny is also determined." ”

"Didn't the emperor often say before that the fate of the Murong clan and even Dayan should be controlled by the emperor?"

"The queen is confused, where is before, when I said this, I was still young, and I had not yet become a great treasure." The emperor sighed again, "Now I finally understand that people should fight for what they should fight for in this life, and don't fight for what they shouldn't fight, otherwise they will have to pay back if they take too much before." ”

"The emperor's dragon body is not safe, and it is inevitable that he will feel depressed." The queen persuaded, "When the emperor is healthy, he will naturally resume his ambition and ensure that my Dayan will be prosperous for all eternity." ”

"Forever?" The emperor suddenly smiled, very desolate, and faintly threatening, "I'm afraid that behind me, something big will happen." Some people never have the patience to wait. It turns out that it is his, but it will fall into the hands of others. ”

The queen didn't dare to answer, so she only turned around to the table, poured tea, and served it to the emperor.

The emperor didn't look too far, "Queen, can I drink this tea?" ”

"Naturally, drinking is exactly what the emperor is used to." The queen was suspicious in her heart, but there was a gentle smile on her face, "If the emperor's taste changes, the concubine will ask someone to change the tea." ”

"After drinking it for decades, the taste will not change." The emperor's face was gloomy, and he said meaningfully, "Just like the ginseng tea that strengthens the body, the queen has concocted it by herself for decades, and I have used it for decades, and I still can't stand it with a slight change." ”

There was a soft click, but it was a crisp sound from the queen's hand trembling and the tea cups colliding.

The emperor's gaze was as cold as an ice blade, but he didn't say much, but leaned back tiredly. Fang Qing immediately put a cushion behind him and helped him pull the quilt.

"I'm tired, go down." The emperor closed his eyes slightly, his strength was very weak, "The queen doesn't have to do things in the east and west, although I am old and sick, everything is still arranged." ”

"Yes, the concubine retired." The queen kept her eyes down and slowly retreated.

Back in her bedroom, Mama Zhu was already waiting on the side. At this time, the sky was slightly bright, and Mama Zhu persuaded the queen to go to bed and rest for a while, so as to avoid the concubines' invitation. The queen nodded, and then Mama Zhu personally waited, washed up slightly, broke her hair again, changed into a middle coat, and crooked on the bed, but did not sleep immediately.

"Do you have anything to say?" Seeing that the queen didn't tell her to leave, Mama Zhu approached and asked in a low voice.

"The emperor's willpower and body are very tenacious." The queen said faintly, "I really didn't expect him to wake up so far." ”

"Niangniang, the emperor...... Do you know? Mama Zhu was shocked.

"He must be suspicious." The queen sneered, "So test me with words." If he knew the truth, with his temperament, I would not have come back. ”

"Does the emperor want to kill ......?"

"For the sake of face, he won't kill me, but it is possible to order me to 'get sick' and live in seclusion, or even slowly 'die of illness'. You forgot? That year, because of Jin Jingshi's daughter's affairs in the imperial village, the crown princess and I were both 'sick' for a long time. ”

"What then?" Mama Zhu was anxious. She is the queen's true confidant, a person with an absolute heart.

"Taking advantage of the emperor's lack of energy, he has to make a move immediately. Otherwise, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to do it in the future, and I can only let others slaughter it. The queen groaned, her well-maintained face was white to the point of blue in the morning light, and the wrinkles were obviously deep, and with her gloomy eyes, the whole person was like a demon who had just crawled out of hell. Even Mama Zhu, when she saw the queen's face, she couldn't help but shudder slightly.

"Maybe it's because Niang Niang is too worried, let's be so careful about that matter, the game of decades won't be solved in an instant, right?" Mama Zhu persuaded, "This time I just added some ingredients to make the emperor lie down for a few days." ”

"Fool. If he is not suspicious, why should he tempt me with words? Kill the king, don't talk about you and me, the Xia family has to be buried. The queen sneered, "Now that I think about it, doesn't it prove that he is powerless to deal with me now?" Then I'm going to have to find a way to protect myself, instead of waiting for him to free up his hands and push me back into that situation. ”

"The emperor's body...... How's the recovery? Mama Zhu frowned and asked.

"After all, he is old, even if he is detained by the doctor to help him adjust his body, after all, he is not as old as he is. Moreover, for decades, he has often drunk my ginseng tea, and even if he finds it, he can't get rid of the toxins, and his life span is not far away. It's a pity that he has been sober all his life, but he can't see the situation clearly, and he plans to adjust his body and play a game of chess that concerns the world. ”

"There is an old monk who said that when people are in power, they never think that they will die. But does the queen regret it? ”

"What is there to regret?" The queen laughed fiercely, but also desolately, "When he was demoted to a concubine for the throne, I had already started to concoct medicinal tea for him, am I virtuous?" He thought I didn't know, he liked Chen Lihua's slut in his heart, and he treated me like this, hated him and wanted him to die, did he blame me? As for me, as long as I have survived for these decades, it is worth it, and I can fight for the Xia family and Changtian to get the most worthy thing, so why am I afraid?"

"So what to do now? Slaves and maids will follow their mothers. Mama Zhu gritted her teeth and said, "I just don't know such a secret thing, this poison has been slowly falling for decades, and the dose is so small that you can't even notice it every time, how did the emperor find out?" ”

"Although we are patient enough, the symptoms are like serious heart diseases, after all, doctors are not easy to deal with. Furthermore, if no one knows, they must not do it unless they do it. The emperor's mind is cautious and ruthless, and if there is suspicion, it is not impossible to find a clue. The queen said and waved her hand, "It's too late to say these words, so I have to do it to the end, he is weak, and he can't help me in the harem, but it's only a few days." And since he is suspicious of me, it will be difficult for me to shoot directly, so I might as well play a trick to kill people with a knife."

"Murder with a knife? Where to borrow a knife? ”

"Looking at Quan Dayan, is there anything sharper than that knife?"

"Niangniang refers to King Yu?"

"The emperor thinks I just want to frame King Yu in front of him? Hmph, he underestimated me too much. It's true that I'm a woman, but I'm not blind. He hates and loves Lao Qi, and because of Chen Lihua's relationship, he is reluctant to start. But he was afraid that Lao Qi was not a master who could stabilize the world, so he wanted to give Xihai to Lao Qi. But how can I let my grandson lose a corner of the country? How can Chen Lihua's slut's son get a good go? Therefore, everything I did looked like it was just done by a jealous woman, and the little family was very angry, in fact, I wanted to provoke their father and son to turn against each other. Only when Lao Qi is reversed, the emperor can deal with it ruthlessly, and we must put Lao Qi to death in order to justify it. Speaking of which, the emperor's favorite is only Dayan, only the throne and himself, and we just got a good card. ”

"The queen means naïve?"

"That's her." The queen's face suddenly became hideous, "Lao Qi, that demon, I didn't expect it to be the number one love species in the world." I can see that he will do anything for that little slut, even if he is angry and resentful, and is the enemy of the world. Heaven is pitiful, let me hold the naivety, whether last night's assassination is true or not, it is aimed at ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ］
