Chapter 385: Impermanence

With this one more, the people of the grassland can be regarded as wholeheartedly talking about cooperation with Chu State.

Since the general direction has been decided, things such as calculating expenses and time, counting people's husbands, etc., do not need to be done by Sister Yan herself, but the people of the grassland are not willing to let her go back first, and want her to wait for the specific plan to be released in the grassland, and then stamp the great seal of the God Master, so that they can rest assured.

In order to appease people's hearts, Sister Yan was not in a hurry to leave.

The accompanying officials performed their duties, and even the students were sent by Sister Yan to study along.

In addition to the manpower on the surface, before the departure of Sister Yan, she sent the capable people in the school palace to survey in advance, and they will not show up until the agreement between the two sides is reached, but their results will be sent to the emperor at any time to speed up the efficiency.

Ten days have passed, and the plan is about to be reformulated.

There was a big incident on King Ling's side, and the queen was assassinated and died.

It turned out that after King Ling arrived in the fief, Shang Guo also thought that he could use King Ling to deal with the crown prince, in addition to the remnants of the original lurking in King Ling's fief, he sent many people to plot against King Ling.

King Ling did not have a firm foothold in the fiefdom, and the officials were respectful on the surface, but they did not think so of the prince who had lost power.

At the same time, he was afraid that if he didn't get rid of those fine works now, they would be difficult to deal with when they became climate, so he designed to lure them to appear, and then catch them all.

The Shang State learned a lesson, had already taken precautions, and was ready to plan to go out to the king of Ling, blame the prince, provoke the dissatisfaction of the Chu people against the prince, and then take the opportunity to get rid of the prince, and finally cause civil unrest in Chu.

After the last time King Ling was in danger, but he broke one eye, the queen knew the danger of this matter, so she used the excuse to support King Ling, replaced her own people, and then deliberately showed up, so that the fine work lost its judgment, replaced the king of Ling, and led to the fine work.

In the melee, because the queen herself was understaffed, the guards could not fully protect her, and these outlaws found a hole and stabbed her in the chest with a poison dart.

King Ling only had time to come and see her one last time.

King Ling saw that she was guarded in the middle, with two bloody holes in her chest, her head buzzed, and he rushed forward regardless of the danger.

The guards who came with him hurriedly joined the melee, which was considered to be the bottom of the bottom to stop the Assassins' offensive and gain the upper hand.

King Ling picked up the queen and ran to the palace doctor.

The queen looked at her son's resolute chin and felt that life was leaving her.

"Huang'er, the queen mother is really going to die this time, you two children, I always protect you more, and the queen mother will no longer be in the future, you have to protect Yining, Luo'er, and the child, don't get into danger again, okay?"

"Queen Mother, you will be fine, you will be here soon, you save your strength and don't speak, I will save you. ”

"Then you promise me first. ”

"Yes, yes, promise you. ”

The queen's eyes were gradually unable to see clearly, but she still looked at him strongly, and it was impossible to close it.

King Ling lowered his head to look at her from time to time, but he couldn't bear to meet her eyes.

Several palace doctors also hurried at this time, and they didn't care about anything else at this time, so King Ling put the queen on the ground and sat on his knees to lean on her.

Seeing the color of the blood flowing from the wound, the house doctor had a bad heart, and was busy kneeling to call the pulse, and the queen's consciousness had been dissipated.

After finishing the pulse, he opened the queen's eyes and looked at it, knelt down and took a step back, kowtowed, and said, "Lord, madam, she is poisonous, and she can't be saved." ”

Only a few people in the palace knew the identity of the queen, and everyone else was called a lady, but they also knew the status of this lady, so everyone present was also trembling.

King Ling held her hand tightly and roared, "Impossible, impossible, find me another doctor, go quickly." ”

The queen no longer had the strength to speak, and with all her strength, she could only gently shake King Ling back twice, and then fell into his arms and died.

King Ling held her tightly in his arms and wept bitterly.

None of the people present thought that King Ling would be so sad and looked at each other, as long as his guards knew that it was the prince's mother who had gone to get rid of irrelevant people.

When Gong Luo felt that this was the scene she saw, she staggered to the front, knelt down and stretched out her hand, trembling and sent it to the queen's nose, and her tears could no longer hold back her eyes, "Auntie, aunt-"

Wave after wave of doctors came, all sentenced to lynching, and King Ling's hopes were dashed again and again, and finally his heart was like ashes.

After crying for a long time, King Ling was still immersed in grief and couldn't extricate himself, Gong Luo also cried and swollen her eyes, reason told her that she couldn't go on like this, and said, "Your Highness, don't be like this, there are still many things waiting for you to preside." ”

Seeing that King Ling ignored her, she continued to persuade, "My aunt is no longer here, we still have to arrange for her, do you want her to lie here so ugly?"

King Ling looked up at her, and then without saying a word, he picked up the queen and walked towards the queen's courtyard.

Gong Luo followed silently with tears in her eyes.

Drove out the weeping subordinates, and the king of Ling put the queen on her bed.

Gong Luo said, "My aunt is the queen of Dachu, and she should be buried in the imperial mausoleum and enjoy the honor of the queen, but the road is so far, how can we take my aunt back." ”

King Ling finally spoke, "Then I won't go back, it's just a mausoleum, and those honorable mothers don't care, so they bury her in my fiefdom, and with us with her, she won't be alone." ”

Seeing him like this, Gong Luo could be regarded as letting go of her heart, "Okay, then we'll accompany my aunt." ”

She is a princess, no matter how sad she is, she has to deal with the aftermath.

But the identity of the queen cannot be known to outsiders, and this funeral is a little difficult.

King Ling is a prince, and he can't just keep filial piety for outsiders.

Poor queen of a country, she can only worship in the backyard of a mourning hall, and she can't notify the guests, she is lonely and deserted.

He ordered people to find a treasure on the high mountain behind the palace that could see the palace, and first secretly built a small mausoleum, buried the queen in it, and then overhauled it.

King Ling wrote a letter to Jingzhong, and when he wrote it to Yining, he couldn't put pen to paper, and I don't know if Yining would hate him.

The husband and wife guarded the mourning hall for the queen for seven days, and they both lost weight.

After the queen was buried, Gong Luo fainted from overwork, and the house doctor diagnosed her with a happy pulse.

Accidents really come one after another.

King Ling, who was blaming himself and couldn't forgive himself, looked at the haggard Gong Luo, heard the good news, and suddenly remembered the last words left by the queen mother.

Protect them.

stepped forward and held Gong Luo's hand, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"It's not hard, you have to cheer up earlier, lord. ”

"Don't worry. ”

After Gong Luo fell asleep, King Ling left.

When he arrived at the study, King Ling asked his cronies, "How is the female assassin who was captured a few days ago?" ”

"According to the king's orders, if she is not allowed to die, she cannot die, and she is still locked up in the dungeon. ”

"Well, she must not be allowed to die. ”

"Lord Wang, this assassin is from the Xie family, why don't you ask the Xie family about their responsibility?"

"What's the use of being happy for a while, accountability also depends on the time, can a little girl bring them down?"

"The prince is wise, and the prince still thinks long-term. ”

"Sister Xie is still on the grassland?"

"Yes, she is still discussing the matter of the canal in the grassland, and she is afraid that she will not be able to leave for a while. ”

"Then play the value of this assassin. ”

As he spoke, King Ling wrote a letter, "Send it to Sister Xie Yan, you can't make a mistake." ”

"Yes. ”

"Let the general Qingshu speed up the progress, and within three days, the military power will be received by the king. ”

"The subordinates understand. ”

In the middle of the night, there was no moon, it was dark outside, my sister Yan had just fallen asleep, and Seventeen suddenly said that there was something to report outside, and my sister Yan sat up in her clothes.

Seventeen brought someone in, and it turned out to be thirteen.

Sister Yan said in disbelief, "Thirteen, why are you back, you're all fine, right?"

"Miss Nine, it's a subordinate, it's true, the master and the dusk son are still alive, don't worry. I'm back to deliver the letter. ”

As he spoke, he took out two letters from his bosom.

Sister Yan looked at the envelope and had a sour nose.

After opening the letters, Sister Yan hugged them to her chest, and finally showed a smile.

Thirteen waited for her mood to calm down before saying, "Master, they have long guessed that the Shang Kingdom will not let them go easily, so they have been prepared for a long time. Our soldiers are divided into two ways, I and Fourteen lead people to attract killers, and the master and Dusk Gongzi return as soon as possible, but the Shang and Jin countries joined forces, they had too many people, and it was really difficult to resist, and they found that their subordinates and Fourteen were not the target, so they shifted the direction, so I and Fourteen had already escaped death, and the master and their side were in crisis.

I and Fourteen and the rest of the people secretly searched for a long time and couldn't find them, and then the master sent someone to find us, it turned out that they also escaped from death, so they planned to contact the hidden piles in the Shang Kingdom, to find out the real situation of the Shang and Jin countries, and after completely escaping from the control of the enemy, they immediately sent someone back to report the news, in order to reassure Miss Nine, the master and Dusk Gongzi specially asked Thirteen to come and report to Miss Nine. ”

Sister Yan muttered, "Okay, that's good, that's good." ”

Seventeen was also very excited, but he didn't bother much.

After sitting like this for a while, Sister Yan suddenly remembered, "Reply, yes, reply." ”

Seventeen was busy grinding ink.

After writing the letter, my sister carefully dried it and folded it carefully.

Thirteen reached out to take it, and Sister Yan saw the knife wound on his hand.

Yes, how can it be so easy to escape from death, Thirteen is covered with bruises, and the Seventh Brother and Tian Shen are probably the same, "Thirteen, thank you for your hard work." ”

Thirteen hurriedly took the letter and withdrew his hand, scratching his head again, "These are Thirteen's duties. ”

Sister Yan frowned and said, "Seventeen, quickly bring all the medicines that Qingyue prepared for us. ”

He said to the thirteenth again, "There are a lot of medicines here, enough for everyone to use, don't be reluctant, and don't say anything to keep for the seventh brother and them, just use what should be used, and then I will have someone send you a batch, have you heard?" ”

Sister Yan got up, opened the big box placed at the head of the bed, took out a new fan, hesitated for a moment among the two swords tied with the blue and red sword spikes, took out the red sword spikes, and handed them to Thirteen.

Seventeen took a piece of brocade cloth beside him and helped him wrap his sword so that he would not be recognized.

Thirteen collected his things and wanted to leave, but his sister Yan said, "Seventeen, help him get good medicine and let him go." ”
