Chapter 522 For some reason, old things
"Knock knock knock .."
"Master, the emperor is asking to see you outside?"
The third princess's pupils constricted, can she be so urgent, I am afraid that she has been suppressed for a long time, and I can't see her last time so peaceful.
"Don't welcome the emperor yet."
Hou Hongwen stood at the door of the room, listened to the words of the third princess very clearly, a smile hooked up at the corner of his mouth, and said:
"Grandmother doesn't need to be so respectful."
As he spoke, someone from the palace welcomed Hou Hongwen in.
The third princess immediately stood up to greet her, but she did not have the low state of being a courtier.
Hou Hongwen looked at the Empress Dowager Taizu lying on the bed, and said to the third princess:
"I have a few intimate words with my ancestors, and I hope that my aunt and grandmother will avoid them first."
The third princess glanced at the Empress Dowager Taizu, and obviously saw a trace of fear and prayer in the eyes of the queen mother.
The third princess knew that the fear in the queen's eyes was fear of Hou Hongwen, and the meaning of prayer was to pray that she could stay, but the situation had happened since then, and it was time for the queen mother to repay the debt.
At that moment, the three princesses withdrew, leaving only the Empress Dowager Taizu and Hou Hongwen.
Hou Hongwen sat on the bed, and then the work of the third princess continued to wipe the cheeks of the Empress Dowager Taizu.
The water was warm, but it made the Empress Dowager Taizu cold.
"Ancestor, I can have this day all thanks to the spur of my ancestor, if it weren't for the ruthlessness of my ancestor to make me step by step towards the throne, how could I become the emperor. But Ancestor, why do you want to make me a lonely person, is it possible that if I am a widow for a lifetime, the ancestor will feel at ease. β
said that the movements of his subordinates increased their strength, and directly wiped the bright red of the side cheek of the Empress Dowager Taizu.
"I have been taught by my ancestors since I was a child, and I have learned all about conspiracy and cold-bloodedness, I have watched the people arranged by my ancestors to replace my mother and concubine, and I have seen with my own eyes how my ancestors turned my father into a puppet step by step, and how I lost my humanity step by step, and only knew how to intrigue and calculate people's hearts. I am like a killer who has no feelings, only knows endless killing, but why do you want to send away even the last trace of warmth from me, the old ancestor. β
Slowly, Hou Hongwen's hand grabbed the neck of the Empress Dowager Taizu, and there was hatred in his eyes.
"All this is what you taught me, if you want to control the world, you must learn that the six relatives do not recognize cold-blooded and ruthless, and now the ancestor is going to die in my hands, but regret teaching me like this."
The hand was slowly tightened, and there was no remorse in the eyes of the Empress Dowager Taizu, and some were relieved and happy.
Hou Hongwen couldn't see the success of the Empress Dowager Taizu, she had already calculated to let him kill her, the ancestor, with his own hands, if he really did it, he would really become a beast that the six relatives did not recognize.
"Why do you want to force me, one of my right-hand men escaped from me, and the other is incompatible with me, all of this is caused by you, my heirs, my beloved concubines, are all forced away by you, when Jing'er and Yuhui made a big fuss in Chengfeng Palace, I watched from the sidelines, but I didn't expect them to disappear as soon as they left, no matter how I searched, there was no trace of them, but you killed them."
As soon as Hou Hongwen said this, the Empress Dowager Taizu directly closed her eyes, this is how similar her bloodline is to her, she is obviously ruthless, but she wants to blame all the faults on her.
Seeing this, Hou Hongwen was even more angry in his heart, even though the Empress Dowager Taizu had become a prisoner, he was still defeated in her hands, how ironic, a dynasty has been controlled by a woman for decades, and every emperor lives like a puppet, and all that remains is endless torture.
If it weren't for the Empress Dowager Taizu's age, he might still not be able to fight her, if it weren't for the help of the third aunt, he would still be in her hands now.
"Ancestor, it's time for you to die!"
The corners of Empress Dowager Taizu's mouth rose, waiting for Hou Hongwen to strangle her to death with her own hands.
But what I never expected was that an old voice suddenly came out of the room, and the Empress Dowager Taizu suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the old lady of Jin Guo, who had already died of a stroke.
The old lady of Jin Guogong had mockery in her eyes, sat on the wheelchair, looked at the shocked Empress Dowager Taizu, and said:
"But I didn't expect that people who were already dead would appear here, and now that you and I are going to die, I want to kill me."
Hou Hongwen had already withdrawn from the room, and the three princesses outside the door frowned, looked at Hou Hongwen and said:
"The emperor promised me that he would let her die in the palace unharmed, why did the emperor go back on his word."
Hou Hongwen's eyes were cold, and he looked at the third princess and said: "I never said that I would kill her with my own hands, but I also never said that I would not let others kill her. β
The third princess already knew that she had lived most of her life, how could she be so naΓ―ve, just let her mission be completed, if the queen mother went, she would go with her, this sin was caused by her, and it was she who should be repaid.
The old lady of Jin Guo plucked a hosta between her hair, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in her eyes.
"Do you remember this hairpin, which you secretly gave me when I was in peace, and I didn't know that this hairpin was exchanged for ten boards by you. Even if I hate you so much, I have never destroyed this hairpin, because it is the best memory of my adult life when I was young. β
Empress Dowager Taizu looked at the hosta in the hands of the old lady of Jin Guogong, how could she not remember that she and her were more intimate than her sisters, this hosta was ordered by her grandmother for the eldest sister, but she felt that only she was worthy of this hosta back then, so she stole it and gave it to her as a gift, at that time the two of them were eager to embed each other in their lives, but they never thought that since his appearance, the two of them would turn against each other, and in the end they wanted to kill each other.
The old lady of Jin Guo looked at the moist eyes of the Empress Dowager Taizu, and couldn't help but leave a line of tears.
"You and I have fought for him for decades and harmed the people of the world, but I don't know that it was that person who deceived you and me in the first place."
The old lady of Jin Guo spit out these words, and she couldn't help but leave tears of remorse, and the eyes of the Empress Dowager Taizu were full of surprise, why did she say this.
The old lady of Jin Guo looked at the longing eyes of the Empress Dowager Taizu, and her voice was soft and as when she was young: "Ah Qing, not only did that person not die, he also married a wife and had children, everything was because he and the Holy Queen joined forces to muddy the court, but now I know about the conspiracy of the year, Ah Qing, you and I are really stupid, and we have become the wicked people in this world in the midst of being fooled and applauded." β
The Empress Dowager Taizu was obviously very excited, and the old lady of Jin Guo reassured:
"Aqing, listen to me, you and I are going to die today, I will let you die clearly, and let me alleviate the resentment in my heart for many years."
"Aqing, his real name is Li Changren is a person from Jinan Mansion, at that time he entered Beijing but was summoned by the Holy Queen, at that time the Holy Queen wanted to be in charge of the world alone, she was at the mercy of everyone, I didn't expect you to hate so deeply, I will be out of her control, you and I will fight the world. The Holy Queen didn't succeed after all, and you took control of the dynasty she wanted."
