Chapter 714: Irreversible

When Chen Ying heard this, she sighed silently.

In such a chaotic situation, it was a matter of time before the country was destroyed, and Concubine Wu at that time must have felt very uncomfortable in her eyes.

After pondering for a moment, she asked softly, "After entering the cold palace, are you still reading history?" ”

"I want to read it." Concubine Wu said softly, as if she was tired, and her face actually showed a little old: "In addition to reading history, I also spent money to buy the inner servants, found a lot of medical books, and then bought almost all the medicinal materials on the market, and identified them one by one, in case of emergency." ”

Chen Ying nodded: "That's right." Since the six princes died of poisoning, you should be prepared to learn more pharmacology. ”

"That's exactly what I thought." Concubine Wu said, put the other hand on the case, supported it with both hands, and her expression became a little hollow: "Although I have lived a few more lives than others, I realized at that time that I still know too little, not to mention anything else, I don't know anything about the art of war marching, but at that time, the library was also burned down, and I wanted to find a book and nowhere to find it." At that time, I made up my mind that in the next life, I would protect the six princes to ascend the throne, pacify the west and the north, and solve this dilemma. ”

"So, what did you do in your sixth life?" Chen Ying asked, not asking her about the ending of her fifth life.

Several kings compete for hegemony, internal and external troubles, and breaking the country is almost a foregone conclusion, and then ask further, it is nothing more than to let Concubine Wu recall the scene when she died, what is the benefit?

Concubine Wu seemed to be quite interested in talking, and did not answer her words, but only said to herself: "Speaking of which, the way I died in my fifth life is also quite strange. You've always been smart, you might have guessed who killed me? ”

Chen Ying was stunned by her, and subconsciously wanted to say "I can't guess".

However, as soon as the words came to his mouth, a thought suddenly crossed his mind.

At that moment, a familiar face seemed to appear in front of me.

"Could it be ......" her voice was a little slow, and her tone was not very sure, she paused for a moment before spitting out three words:

"Eldest princess?"

"Gee, how can you guess every time." Concubine Wu said with a smile, and nodded again: "Hey, it's her." Xiao Zhaoyi was killed by the rebels when the imperial city was breached, but the eldest princess was angry with me and stabbed me before she died, saying that she was avenging her mother. ”

Chen Ying looked at her in amazement, and once again felt speechless.

has died and lived several times, and the trajectory of Concubine Wu's life has been confused to a strange degree.

And what surprised her even more was that in the face of a murderous enemy in a certain life, she was able to live a good life with the other party in this life.

This is no longer a state of mind, but a state of mind.

"I'm guessing you'll wonder why I didn't take revenge on their mother and daughter, didn't I?" Concubine Wu said a word, breaking through Chen Ying's thoughts.

Chen Yingzi would not deny it, nodded and said, "Yes, frankly speaking, I admire your mind. ”

Concubine Wu laughed "poof": "You kid, you are honest and funny at this time." Do you know I didn't retaliate? ”

When Chen Ying heard this, she instantly understood, and also smiled to herself: "It turns out that you took revenge when you were in your sixth life, right?" ”

"That's nature. Am I such a good man? If you are killed, you will naturally have to kill it back. Concubine Wu smiled Yan Yan.

Chen Ying did not comment.

Concubine Wu didn't need her to show her attitude, and still said: "After the sixth life woke up, I still followed the path of the previous life, first rescued the six princes and raised them by my side, and secondly, I wanted to kill Xiao Zhaoyi's mother and daughter, and I had to put them to death, so that I could dispel that breath." ”

At this point, she suddenly showed a strange expression on her face, as if amused and self-deprecating: "What is incomprehensible is that this mother and daughter seem to be blessed by God, and they can save the day every time, and there are times when I think they must die, but when I turn my face, they stand in front of me in a dignified manner." ”

She tugged at the corners of her lips and smiled with mixed feelings: "I was not convinced at first, but after only five times, I finally realized that something was wrong, and finally found a few nights when no one was disturbed, meditated, and thought about everything that happened in these six lives." ”

"So, you must have found some kind of pattern in it, right?" Chen Ying asked.

"Regularity?" Concubine Wu was slightly dazed, she probably didn't understand her words.

However, she understood the general meaning, so after a short period of confusion, she nodded and said, "Yes, I was just looking for that rule, and I really found a few." ”

She stretched out her tender fingers and counted them one by one: "First, the death of the first emperor cannot be changed. I've tried to remind, hint, and use all sorts of things before. But no matter how much I tried to prevent it, the first emperor would always catch a cold in the 37th year of Taikang, and then he became seriously ill and died; And this second rule is that I can't escape from this imperial city, and I can't escape from Huangjue Temple. ”

She smiled calmly, as if she had already been calm about the irreversibility of fate: "Since the second life, I will try to run out in every life, but whenever I start to arrange, there will always be something wrong, after trying no less than a dozen times, I finally die, knowing that this is God's will, I must always teach me to die in this imperial city or Huangjue Temple, so that I can be counted." ”

She shook her head, and her smile became more and more indifferent: "As for the third rule, it is that I am not allowed to interfere in politics." No matter the two lives when I was the queen mother, or the rest of the lives, all my abilities are only in the imperial city, as for the court, but whenever I move, there will be great ominous. I still remember the life of King Ning, I just wanted to remove a certain Shangshu, and the capital immediately moved, and there were many strange things, so I won't go into detail one by one. In short, I can only move around the harem, a palm-sized place, and I can't go to the place next to it, and I can't manage it. ”

Chen Ying said "um", and sighed very much for her: "The sixth life of the concubine Niangniang is not easy to live. ”

"yes, it's not easy." Concubine Wu also sighed, took a few breaths, and smiled again: "Let's go, let's go, let's go, it's all in the past, what to do with it." ”

She waved her hand, swept away the past, and continued the previous topic: "In addition to the three I said earlier, there is another one, which is also very interesting. Even if you don't deserve to die, I won't be able to die. ”

"Just like the Empress Dowager Xiao and the eldest princess?" Chen Ying said.

"Yes." Concubine Wu bowed her head slightly, and there was a smile on her face: "If you think about it, Empress Dowager Xiao's mother and daughter have lived to the end in every life, and they have accompanied me to death." In addition to Adong, there are not many people who can survive to the end in the sixth generation, and Empress Dowager Xiao's mother and daughter are two of them. ”

This shows that letting Empress Dowager Xiao's mother and daughter live is also one of the elements to break the curse of reincarnation.

Concubine Wu said at this time: "After thinking about these four articles, I never troubled the Xiao family again, but carefully raised the six princes, let him read history, read scriptures, read military books, and then often mentioned the great troubles of Xiyi and Northern Xinjiang, so that he knew what to expect." ”
