Chapter 182 Forced to drink poison

Next.

The emperor summoned Lin Changtian into the palace, Lin Changtian knew what he was calling him for, with a smile on his face, and went unhurriedly.

Shen Yi turned his back to him, pretending to admire a pot of precious orchids, and Lin Changtian also stood there, without saying a word except for the sentence "The minister sees the emperor".

"Young Marshal Lin." Shen Yi called him lightly.

"The minister is here."

"I think you've been too idle lately, and I want to get you a good job." Shen Yi glanced at him lightly, "How about the bandits?" ”

A young marshal, let him go to suppress bandits, it is too overkill.

Lin Changtian hesitated for a moment, and set his eyes on Shen Yi's back, why didn't he just transfer himself away, he wanted to come to suppress the bandits, was it just to humiliate him?

"Didn't you hear me?" Shen Yi's originally warm voice suddenly carried a bit of a chill.

The emperor's will is irresistible, so he should order, "The minister obeys the will." ”

He wanted to retire after saying that, but he felt that Shen Yi called himself more than that.

Shen Yi said lazily, "What do you want to say?" ”

"It is the honor of the minister to serve the country, no matter how big or small the merit is, the minister will definitely treat it with all his might." After Lin Changtian said these words that were neither soft nor hard, Shen Yi snorted coldly in his heart, the atmosphere between them was cold and awkward, the class between the monarch and the minister was very distinct, and he would not say a word that was out of place.

"How is General Chu Minggang doing lately?" Shen Yi's voice was cold, and there was a bit of unbearability.

Lin Changtian said in his heart, do you think he will be fine?

"Weichen doesn't know, the emperor cares about General Chu, why not greet him personally."

Shen Yi was not annoyed when he heard his words mixed with sarcasm, and sighed in his heart, a wry smile, but no words.

Recently, when he was in the court, he paid more attention to Chu Minggang's eyes, his cheeks lost a little weight, and he stood on the court solemnly, full of the meaning of "don't get close, don't bother me".

Shen Yi wanted to soothe him, but he didn't know how to say it, let alone how to face him.

"If the emperor has nothing else to do, the minister will retire first and discuss the suppression of bandits."

"Let's go down."

"The minister retired." Lin Changtian turned around and strode away, he walked too fast, bringing a gust of wind and blowing past Shen Yi's side.

Shen Yi looked at his back and suddenly envied him.

I envy him for being able to live so freely, envy his position in Chu Ruojun's heart, and envy the affection between the two of them.

Shen Yi was just about to leave, but he heard the queen's maid hurriedly report: "Your Majesty, it's not good, the queen is afraid that there are signs of miscarriage, and the imperial doctor is diagnosing and treating her, please take a look at the emperor." ”

He was slightly startled, and immediately walked towards the queen's bedchamber.

At this time, Chu Ruojun sat alone in the room, looking at the candied pastries on the table without saying a word.

The palace maid didn't ask her, just stood not far away and guarded silently.

Empress Dowager Liu heard the palace maid's report that the emperor had already gone to the queen, and she would not be able to get out of her body for a while.

She sneered and walked towards the door, while the palace maid was stunned and followed the steps of Empress Dowager Liu.

Empress Dowager Liu stopped in front of the Snow Moon Palace and said with a smile: "What a wind and snow." ”

With that, he was about to go inside, but was stopped by the guarded forbidden army.

"The emperor has decreed that no one is allowed to enter."

"The mourning family knows that if you break in, you will not be forgiven." Empress Dowager Liu chuckled, "But do you think the emperor will kill the mourning family?" ”

There were a few drops of cold sweat on the guard's forehead, he naturally knew that the emperor would never cut off the head of the Empress Dowager Liu, but inside were the people on her heart, and if something happened, it was they who lost their heads.

"Please don't embarrass the Queen Mother." The guard's fingertips were slightly white.

"The mourning family is about to go in, and you dare to stop the mourning family." Empress Dowager Liu pressed forward step by step.

The guard's eyes darkened, "I am just carrying out the emperor's orders, and I won't let Niangniang in, so Niangniang should please go back." ”

Empress Dowager Liu glanced at him, her gaze cold to the bone.

She plucked the golden hairpin from her head and put it around her neck, and said coldly: "If you don't let go, the mourning family will kill yourself again." ”

As soon as the words fell, beads of blood slipped from under the golden hairpin.

The guards had already sent someone to report to the emperor, thinking that they could delay for a moment longer, but they didn't think that Empress Dowager Liu would force her to die, and she suddenly made a difficulty.

Seeing that the guard hesitated, the golden hairpin in her hand deepened a little deeper, and then raised her feet and walked inside, no one dared to stop her.

Chu Ruojun's existence has always been a thorn in the tip of Empress Dowager Liu's heart, and it is difficult to guarantee that she will wake up one day and attack the emperor.

She has good martial arts, and staying by the emperor's side is always a sharp blade.

If you kill the emperor's beloved woman, it is difficult to guarantee that the emperor will not hate him, and there is a gap between mother and son, but if her martial arts are abolished, making her the same as an ordinary woman, and not threatening her life, the emperor can't say anything.

"I've seen the Queen Mother." Chu Ruojun was still confused, so she was pulled down by the palace maid to salute.

The palace maid was suspicious, didn't the emperor order that no one should enter, why did the Empress Dowager Liu come in, when she caught a glimpse of the bright red on the queen mother's neck, it was immediately clear.

Before Chu Ruojun got up, Empress Dowager Liu sent Chu Ruojun's personal maid out, and a palace maid she brought stepped forward with a tray in her hand and placed it on the table next to Chu Ruojun, "This is given to Miss Chu by the Queen Mother, as long as you drink this bowl of medicine, you will be able to be with the emperor in the future." ”

"What kind of medicine is this?" Chu Ruojun looked at the bowl of black juice in the white porcelain bowl and asked puzzled.

"It's just an ordinary medicinal juice for clearing heat and detoxifying, but there is scattered gong powder in this medicinal juice." The palace maid said as usual.

"Sangong powder?" Chu Ruojun exclaimed in surprise and immediately got up: "Why did you give it to me?" ”

Scattering Gong Powder, as the name suggests, is the martial arts that dissipate the whole body, Chu Ruojun has long known that he has martial arts these days.

Empress Dowager Liu sighed, stroked her cheeks with cold fingers, and said leisurely: "The emperor has done too many foolish things for you, the civil and military capital of the Manchu Dynasty said that you are a red face and a scourge to the emperor, to this point, everyone has taken a step back, as long as you drink this decoction, the mourning family will never come to you again in the future." ”

Chu Ruojun stared at the bowl of decoction, bit her lip, and didn't move.

"Miss Chu, don't let down the emperor's hard work." Empress Dowager Liu continued: "You see, the emperor has set up so many forbidden armies for you, what kind of assassin can't be caught, what is the use of your kung fu, in the end, it will only become a mustard in everyone's hearts." ”

When Chu Ruojun heard this, she muttered, "Who does this mean?" ”

"Who does it mean, as long as you drink it, it's good for the emperor and you, the emperor loves you so much, I can't wait to spend all my time with you, and you don't want the emperor to become a faint monarch in everyone's mouth."

Chu Ruojun nodded, "I don't want to." ”

Then he stretched out his hand and picked up the bowl of decoction, I am afraid that not only will the martial arts be lost, but also those things engraved in the flesh and bones of the meridians will also disappear together.

That feeling must be as painful as insects and ants gnawing every inch of the body.

She bit her lip and brought the decoction to her lips, and she could even see the anticipation overflowing in Empress Dowager Liu's eyes.

In the next second, her hand shook, and the white porcelain bowl fell to the ground with a clatter, smashed into pieces.

"Oops, I'm too scared to hold it." Chu Ruojun shook the decoction in her hand and smiled lightly at Empress Dowager Liu.

Empress Dowager Liu was angry, and she hated so much that the roots of her teeth itched, this woman was so cunning, she should have expected it a long time ago.

How could she obediently drink that bowl of medicine!

Empress Dowager Liu hated herself for being really confused, and hated Chu Ruojun's cunning.

The Zhu Gate was vigorously kicked open from the outside, and Shen Yi came quickly, carrying the icy wind and scorching gaze of October.

Chu Ruojun shrank back and threw herself into his arms in a panic, and everyone knelt on the ground, including the Empress Dowager Liu, who knelt in front of him in the same posture.

Shen Yi stretched out his hand to brush away the slightly messy hair on her forehead, Chu Ruojun shrank in his arms, telling the grievances and injuries one by one, without any disguise, with a grievance cry in her voice: "Your Majesty, she brought me a bowl of poison and forced me to drink it, and I almost never saw the emperor again." ”

Shen Yi's eyes sank, and he looked coldly at the broken porcelain bowl on the ground, as well as the medicinal juice flowing all over the ground, "What a good queen mother." ”

Empress Dowager Liu was not wronged, she quietly glanced at the woman lying in Shen Yi's arms, "What the mourning family brought is not a poison, but it is just added to the powder of sangong, the mourning family did not want to take her life, but they were worried that she would have an accident to the emperor, if the emperor does not believe it, he can let the imperial doctor test it, and he will know whether the mourning family's words are true or false." ”

Chu Ruojun trembled slightly, and cried out quietly, "Your Majesty, I don't want to drink that, I don't want it." ”

Shen Yi finally couldn't bear it, held her hand soothingly, and coaxed softly: "Okay, it's all up to you, don't drink that." ”

The gorgeous and wide robe couldn't hide the trembling of Empress Dowager Liu, and the fat powder on her face couldn't hide her cheeks that slowly faded in color.

Shen Yi glanced at her and said coldly: "The queen mother misbehaved, let's go back to the palace to recuperate, don't appear again in the future, if there is a next time, I won't be so polite." ”

Empress Dowager Liu held the table with one hand, shaking violently, she looked at Chu Ruojun tightly, and said with difficulty: "Yes, the mourning family is confused, confused......"

After that, I didn't want to stay for a second and turned away.

Shen Yi looked at her deeply, his eyes were full of love and guilt, "I'm late, I'm sorry......"

The corners of Chu Ruojun's lips hooked, and met his ink-like eyes, "I didn't drink it either." ”

Shen Yi gently held her hand, and also smiled, there was unspeakable sourness in the smile, but also a hint of relief, "It's good that you are smart." ”

Looking at her little face, which was a little pale from fright, with a forced smile on her face, the man's eyes were gloomy and he felt guilty.

He leaned down slowly and placed a light kiss on the corner of her lips, "As long as you're okay, it's okay......"
