Chapter XXXVIII

"Moreover, in your other holy decree, the son of such a poisonous woman is not worthy of inheriting the throne at all, and the crown prince will be abolished immediately!"

And hearing the emperor's words, the queen lying on the ground seemed to be stung by something, and she woke up almost instantly, she heard that the emperor was going to abolish herself, and she was unmoved, but when she heard that she was going to abolish her son together, she couldn't help but shout heartbreakingly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the concubines have been wronged, the concubines have never poisoned the first queen's mother, the first queen took the concubines, like sisters, concubines, how could they poison the first queen's mother!" Your Majesty! Moreover, Your Majesty, although you and your concubines don't have much affection, there are also concubines who have helped each other for half their lives, what kind of people are concubines? Your Majesty, don't you know? ”

Speaking of which, the queen looked at the emperor, her face was still cold, she ignored herself, but she didn't continue to give the order, that is, there was still a place for this matter to turn around, and she quickly knelt up and walked a few steps west, knelt in front of the emperor, and said sadly: "Your Majesty, you are recovering from a serious illness today, you must have been blinded by a traitor, the emperor thinks, if the death of the first queen is strange, then why did these two grandmothers come today, and when they come, they have to choose, the emperor, when you are seriously ill?" ”

"As for ...... As for these hibiscus ointments, as well as these so-called poisoned murders, the concubines don't know at all, although the concubine's brother said that he was in Linqi, but the concubine herself has not had a relationship with her brother for many years. ”

"First, in order to avoid suspicion, he is also afraid that the emperor will think too much, the concubine and the elder brother have not been together for ten years, why did they come here to "sleep for a thousand days"? ”

When the queen said this, she secretly looked at the emperor, and saw that the emperor's expression softened, don't add more oil and vinegar, and made persistent efforts to say: "Besides, the person behind the scenes, now saying this, must be to see the emperor's illness, to provoke the relationship between our husband and wife, and actually pull the prince off the horse, what this person did, the timing of the seizure is so appropriate, and the person who is careful and vicious!" ”

And the emperor has gradually become suspicious and suspicious in the queen's complaint, and the queen is in her own sophistry, more and more confident, more and more ideas, as if what he said is true, after all, if there are too many lies, it feels like the truth, whether it is others or himself, they will think that it is true.

So the queen's next words are even more in one go: "Today, the prince is not allowed to attack outside the palace because of something, help the emperor, you go to deal with the government, and the concubine has been in the Buddha hall, for the emperor, you sincerely pray, and there is no time to come to the emperor in your palace, if it is not for the emperor's urgent call, the concubine is still in the palace for you to copy the Buddhist scriptures, sincerely pray for it, so the person behind the curtain of this design, the timing of the grasp can not be said to be unfortunate, I and the prince are not by the emperor's side, which is on the merits, can only let others add fuel to the vinegar to smear the concubines and the prince! ”

"Besides, these two grandmothers, they were indeed the palace people around the first queen, but they were not the first queen's personal palace maids, they were just two rough girls who swept the yard, how could they know such intimate things? Besides, the emperor, you also know that when the first queen died of illness, you buried all the palace maids and ordered the first queen to be martyred, and how did these two grandmothers escape? If they escaped and were not buried with the former queen, they were guilty of resisting the decree! ”

"As soon as the concubine entered the palace at that time, her face changed greatly when she saw these two maids, and she thought of this, the emperor ordered the person to be buried alive, but appeared alive in front of him, isn't this questioning the emperor's majestic order?"

The queen can not be described as a clever tongue, the emperor heard the queen's words, the suspicion in his heart expanded, looking at the two grandmothers on the ground, he couldn't help but sway a little, is the truth of the matter really as the queen said, someone deliberately wants to slander and frame the queen today?

And the queen on this side saw the emperor's expression, and still continued: "Besides, the medicine in this bottle, the emperor, you and I both know that this bottle was given to the first queen by you, and this bottle of medicine has been properly kept by the first queen, except that she cares that others can be approached, so how can the concubine He De poison this hibiscus ointment?" ”

"The most important thing is that this is already after the former queen has died of illness, the whereabouts of this bottle of medicine have been unknown, no one knows, and today it appears in this palace, who knows, this poison is already in it before the first queen was alive, or someone is just to slander the concubines, so they re-poisoned it, all of this is unknowable, the emperor, you must be aware of everything, and you must not wronged the concubines."

Speaking of this, the queen even shed a few tears, and continued to sobble and said: "And the emperor, you must also know, these days, the prince has been serving in front of your bed, food and clothing are not changed, not only do you not think about tea and food, how can you ignore the heart of the fist and the son?" ”

Hearing this, the emperor couldn't help but remember, when he just woke up, there were no other relatives around him except the prince, and he couldn't help but understand that his behavior of angering the prince just now was really inappropriate, after all, the prince really admired and admired himself, and what the queen did just now just showed that there were many doubts about this matter, and he was so angry just now, it really shouldn't be.

But just when the emperor was thinking like this, the queen continued: "Moreover, the mastermind behind this scene must be very hateful, they know that the emperor has been ill for a long time, and now they deliberately reveal this matter, framing the concubines, causing the emperor to be very angry and lose his mind, and this anger will definitely be very harmful to the emperor, your body can be described as very harmful, the people behind the scenes not only want me, but also the prince's life, but also want to plot against the emperor!" ”

The emperor was originally a little remorseful, he had just lost his mind in anger, and he didn't distinguish the doubts and strangeness, but now that the queen said this, he undoubtedly gave the emperor a good step, so he went down the steps: "What you said is not unreasonable, and the mastermind behind this scene is also very suspicious." Tell me, who do you think is behind this? ”

When the queen heard the emperor ask, she knew that the emperor had believed what she said, so she closed her eyes and said slowly: "Who is this?" Your Majesty, the concubines don't dare to speculate, but I think Mu Guifei went forward, the emperor didn't come to visit when you were seriously ill, but today you came over, and the timing of the rush is so coincidental, and the emperor also knows that the concubines and Mu Guifei have always been at odds, so the concubines also have a lot of reason to suspect that everything today was done by Mu Guifei. ”

When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help but hesitate a little, indeed, she had always known that the queen and Mu Guifei were not in harmony, but he did not adjust or stop it, after all, for the emperor, if the people below are harmonious, it is fatal.

Therefore, he not only supports the queen in the harem, but also supports Mu Guifei, that is, to see the two forces fighting each other, restraining each other, and balancing each other, so that he, the emperor, can do a solid job.

However, now that I heard the queen say that Mu Guifei just did all this, and the mastermind behind all this did things so calmly and grasped it so coincidentally, it was seamless, and the emperor not only had a trace of jealousy about this Mu Guifei beside him.

Thinking like this, the emperor turned his head, stared at Mu Guifei next to him and said, "Guifei, is there such a thing?" ”

Mu Guifei was still lying in the emperor's arms just now, delicate and weak, looking at a big drama in front of her, but the wind direction suddenly changed, and the queen just relied on these few words, and she transferred this disaster to herself, and she couldn't help but be shocked.

And seeing that the emperor turned his head and looked at himself unkindly, Mu Guifei shouted in her heart, so she hurriedly got out of bed, knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, your Mingjian, the concubine has come to serve the emperor since she got up today, when will you have the opportunity to arrange these ten things, besides." Besides, the concubines entered the palace later, whether it was the first queen, the queen or the emperor, they didn't know anything about the affairs between you, and where to find the workers and two grandmothers next to the two queens? And even this kind of thing like hibiscus cake is also the boudoir pleasure of the emperor and the former queen, and the concubines never know it. ”

When the emperor heard Mu Guifei say this, he couldn't help but nod secretly, indeed, although Mu Guifei said that she could fight with the queen today and set up a country alone, but he also knew that Mu Guifei entered the palace very late, and he really didn't know these entanglements between himself and the former queen and the queen, and the emperor thought of this, and glanced at Mu Guifei lying on the ground, Mu Guifei has always been delicate and frail, although she has always relied on her own favor to fight against the queen, in the end, she has always relied on her own favor, and she is used to being coquettish in front of herself. It's really hard for him to do such a thing.

"What's more, the emperor doesn't know anything, didn't the concubine forget the emperor a few days ago, and the wolf-hearted don't come to see the emperor, the concubine really can't come in!" That Mu Guifei was even more tearful and full of grievances at this moment, and the queen next to her couldn't help but tremble in her heart when she heard this.

"What do you mean by that? Why can't you get in! When the emperor heard this, he hurriedly asked, I don't know why, the emperor felt that a few terrible things were about to erupt, and this one thing would shatter the peaceful world in front of him!
