Two, three, two, the monarch is surprised
Wan Zhen'er nodded slowly: "The reason why I didn't go to see the emperor today is because the emperor had a misunderstanding about me. If Bengong goes to see him again now, the emperor still thinks that Bengong is talking nonsense, so Bengong will tell you these things, making it clear that you can get this benefit. ”
Gu Lengyi hurriedly made a big salute to Wan Zhen'er and said, "Then what should I do, and ask my mother for guidance." ”
Wan Zhen'er nodded and smiled: "Actually, this matter is very simple to say, the love Gu on the emperor's body is because he was shocked by Tang." As long as the emperor can kill Tang Jingran, then the love Gu poison on his body can be lifted, and the emperor will not only live for three years. ”
"Huh?" After Gu Leng heard this, he was taken aback by Wan Zhen'er.
While examining Wan Zhen'er, he couldn't take his eyes off her, he wanted to see whether Wan Zhen'er was telling the truth or a lie.
Because Wan Zhen'er is really a scheming person, Tang Jingran offended her before, and it is not impossible for her to want to retaliate against Tang Jingran now.
Wan Zhen'er saw that Gu Lengyi didn't seem to believe herself, so she smiled and said, "What's wrong?" Father-in-law Gu, you have been with this palace for so many years, don't you even believe what this palace says? ”
"It's not that I don't want to believe my mother, it's just that this thing is too unbelievable. If there is really such a thing in the world, then why did the eldest princess tell the emperor that there was actually no antidote to her love Gu? ”
"Don't you have the brain to think about it? What is the relationship between the eldest princess and Tang Jingran? The eldest princess and Tang Jingran were originally people along the way, how could she be willing to sacrifice Tang Jingran to save the emperor? Unless it is a last resort, and now that there are still three years left before this, of course she will not be able to tell the emperor. If she told the emperor, with the emperor's character, maybe Tang Jingran would be killed now. So I'm right when you say this? ”
Gu Leng Yi heard Wan Zhen'er say this, and felt that what Wan Zhen'er said seemed to be reasonable.
Jian Huaizhen and Tang Jingran do have a very good relationship, and Jian Huaizhen will definitely not sacrifice Tang Jingran to save the emperor unless he has to.
If this is the case, then most of what Wan Zhen'er said is true.
Wan Zhen'er continued to say to him slowly: "Father-in-law Gu, this is a great opportunity to make meritorious contributions. You think that if the love Gu on the emperor's body can be lifted after he kills Tang Jingran, then you have made a great contribution. If after the emperor killed Tang Jingran, the love Gu on his body could not be lifted, he could only live for three years, and he would be dead by then, how could he blame you. It was three years later, and of course no one was pursuing the matter anymore. Of course, Shi Liqing told me that the love Gu on the emperor's body could be solved as long as he killed Tang Jingran. If the emperor doesn't believe it, he can ask Shi Liqing. ”
As soon as Gu Lengyi thought of the strange-looking old woman Shi Liqing, the whole person felt shuddered.
Because this Shi Liqing is really terrifying, he has never seen anyone peel off human skin, embroider human hair into a mural for embroidery thread, and hang it in his house every day, and he doesn't feel terrifying.
When he heard Wan Zhen'er say this, it seemed that Wan Zhen'er had already been prepared.
He thought for a long time, then nodded and said, "Okay, since this matter can have the best of both worlds, and it will fulfill both the slave and the mother, then the slave will take the risk." ”
After speaking, he walked into the palace to see Zhu Jianshen.
Zhu Jianshen saw that Gu Lengyi had come in, so he opened his mouth and asked, "I heard some noise outside the palace just now, what is going on?" ”
Gu Lengyi hurriedly saluted and said to him respectfully: "Emperor Qiqi, there is nothing going on outside, it's just a few little palace maids and eunuchs making noise there, and they have been reprimanded by the old slave just now." ”
Zhu Jianshen nodded and said, "Okay, that's fine." ”
Na Gu Leng thought about it, knelt down in front of Zhu Jianshen, and said: "Your Majesty, the old slave heard about something, and he didn't know whether it was true or false, and the old slave really couldn't make up his mind, so he wanted to tell the emperor and ask the emperor to decide." ”
"What did you hear?" Zhu Jianshen frowned, slightly impatient.
Gu Lengyi hurriedly said: "The old slave remembered that the emperor had told the old slave in the past that the emperor was also poisoned by Gu because of the love Gu of Concubine Tang Shu for Tang Shu, and he also said that he couldn't live for three years. It's just that the slave heard a method that can untie the love Gu on the emperor's body. ”
"What do you say, what you say is true?" When Zhu Jianshen heard Gu Leng say this, his eyes suddenly radiated light.
There is a thirst for life and greed in that light.
"Yes."
Gu Lengyi gritted his teeth and said: "I heard what Master Shi Liqing Shi said, she said that as long as the emperor kills Concubine Tang Shu, then this love Gu will naturally be lifted." At that time, the emperor will not experience the poison of the past three years. ”
"What do you say? Let me kill Tang Shufei? ”
Zhu Jianshen couldn't help but shudder when he thought of this, he interrupted Gu Leng a little irritably, and said, "Are you sure what you said is true?" Are you sure that Shi Liqing really said such a thing? ”
The old slave was not sure, so the old slave hoped that the emperor could summon Shi Liqing to ask if there was such a thing. If that's the case, make a plan. ”
Zhu Jian thought deeply for a long time, and his hands trembled a little.
He shook his hand and said, "Okay, let's think about this again." ”
Gu Lengyi then retreated.
After Gu Leng retreated, he secretly wondered what Zhu Jianshen thought.
He felt that with Zhu Jianshen's character, he would never sit idly by and ignore this matter, but he didn't know that Zhu Jianshen would be able to endure it for a few days.
Sure enough, on the second day, Zhu Jianshen summoned Gu Lengyi over again and asked him, "Gu Lengyi, are you sure you have heard the method of lifting the love Gu from Shi Liqing yesterday?" ”
"Yes, the old slave really heard about it. If the emperor doesn't believe it, the old slave can invite Master Shi Liqing Shi over now. ”
As soon as he said that he was going to invite Master Shi Liqing, he involuntarily shrank a little.
Because he felt very uncomfortable when he thought of that Shi Liqing.
When Zhu Jianshen heard him say this, Zhu Jianshen nodded and said, "That's fine, then you first summon Shi Liqing into the Qianqing Palace, I want to ask her in person." ”
"Yes."
Gu Leng Yi said: "The old slave is now serving the emperor, why don't you let others pass it on." ”
Zhu Jianshen felt that he was a little strange, why did he do more, but Zhu Jianshen did not deny his request, so he said: "You can arrange it yourself." ”
So, Nagu Lengyi sent two little eunuchs to the harem to invite Shi Liqing over.
And Shi Liqing has already been instructed by Wan Zhen'er now, and she has been waiting for a long time.
Suddenly, when she saw someone saying that they wanted to invite her to the Qianqing Palace, she immediately understood what the emperor was looking for her.
So when he stood up and followed the two little eunuchs to the Qianqing Palace.
When he walked to the door, Nagu Lengyi was waiting at the door.
Gu Leng shuddered when he saw Shi Liqing passing by his side.
Because Shi Liqing exuded a bewitching aura, which was frightened by Gu Lengyi.
After Shi Liqing walked in, she saw Zhu Jianshen crouching on top of the dragon case to review the chapter.
So, she stepped forward to salute the emperor and said, "The old woman Shi Liqing knocked on the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." ”
When Shi Liqing said these words, there was a very strange look in her eyes.
Zhu Jianshen glanced at her lightly and said, "Shi Liqing, I sent you here today to ask you something, you must know everything and say everything, otherwise I will not easily forgive you." ”
"Please tell the emperor, no matter what the emperor asks, as long as the old woman knows, she must make it clear to the emperor."
"Okay, then I'll ask you. When I heard Gu Leng say before, as long as I killed the woman who was surrendered by love, then I could recover, and the Gu poison on my body could also be lifted, is there such a thing? ”
Shi Liqing had already received Wan Zhen'er's instructions, so she immediately replied without delay: "Your Majesty, there is such a thing. The old woman helped the emperor give Concubine Tang Shu a love Gu before, but the old woman didn't know that there was such a thing. Recently, after the old woman consulted the classics, she found that the person who killed her love Gu could completely remove the Gu poison on her body. ”
"You mean that if I kill Concubine Tang Shu, I don't have to live for only three years, and my life can last for thousands of years, right?"
There was a hint of ecstasy in Zhu Jianshen's eyes.
"Your Majesty, that's true. As long as the emperor kills Concubine Tang Shu, then the emperor's life will be immortal for thousands of generations. ”
That Shi Liqing had been instructed by Wan Zhen'er before, so she was also extremely flattering when she spoke.
After Zhu Jianshen heard what she said, he raised his hand and said, "Okay, I know, you can go down." ”
So, Shi Liqing said goodbye and went down.
When she passed by Gu Lengyi's side, she glanced at Gu Lengyi with pity, and Gu Lengyi couldn't help but have the hairs on her body stand up.
Gu Lengyi, the big eunuch, is usually not afraid of anyone in the palace, but the only person he is afraid of is Shi Liqing.
He felt that Shi Liqing was really a weird person, he had seen that the mural that Shi Liqing hung on the wall was actually made of human skin and human hair, and he felt that there was no stranger person in the world than Shi Liqing.
So when he saw Shi Liqing, he felt shuddered.
After Shi Liqing retreated, Zhu Jianshen looked at her back and let out a long sigh.
Gu Lengyi stepped forward and asked the emperor repeatedly: "Your Majesty, can't you make up your mind now?" ”
Zhu Jianshen was a little dazed and said, "What did you say?" ”
"Actually, the old slave asked if the emperor wanted to save his life. The emperor only has three years to live now, if he kills Concubine Tang Shu, he can save the Gu poison on his body and remove it, and then he can be immortal for thousands of generations. Isn't it true that the emperor still can't make up his mind? ”
Zhu Jianshen heard him ask, and was stunned for a long time before saying: "It's not that I can't make up my mind, it's just that the Gu poison on this Tang Jingran's body was also given to her by me, so if this matter is to be held responsible, I will always bear most of the responsibility, and Tang Jingran is innocent." If I had to deal with such an innocent woman, I would have felt unbearable. ”
"Your Majesty, you are too benevolent, but if you don't deal with Concubine Tang Shu, then fate will come against you. Your Majesty, you are the son of heaven and the Ninety-Five, as the saying goes, you can't go without a king for a day, if you don't heal yourself quickly, no one can say what will happen next. ”
Thinking of this, Gu Leng paused again, and said alarmistly: "The old slave also heard Shi Liqing say before, Shi Liqing said that if the emperor quickly resolves this Gu poison, it will be difficult to remove it in the future as time goes by." ”
Zhu Jianshen was stunned for a moment when he heard him say this, and asked casually, "What you said is true?" ”
"How dare the old slave deceive the emperor, if the old slave has a place to deceive the emperor, he would rather be killed by thunder."
Zhu Jianshen waved his hand and said, "I'm not asking you to swear poison. It's just that I still feel unbearable, so you can let me think about this again. ”
"Your Majesty, it's not that the old slave is urging the emperor, it's just that the emperor's life is more important than anything else. If Concubine Shu Niangniang can die for the emperor, if she knows about this matter herself, she will definitely be willing to sacrifice her life. After all, the emperor not only represents the emperor himself, but you also represent the whole country. ”
Zhu Jianshen listened to Gu Lengyi's words of encouragement, and he fell into deep thought for a while.
He remembered many, many things that had happened before, and Tang was shocked to go through many, many things with him.
In the past, all he tried his best to think about was to get Tang Jingran into the palace, and after Tang Jingran entered the palace, he once ignored him, so he impulsively placed a love general for Tang Jingran, so that Tang Jingran could surrender to himself.
But when Tang Jingran really followed him, he felt that everything was so greasy.
Tang Jingran became exactly the same as all the women in the palace, not the heroic and sassy Jianghu woman Tang Jingran, which made him a little uncomfortable.
So his mood at this moment is also very contradictory.
Zhu Jianshen heard Gu Lengyi's words of encouragement, and thought of his uncertain future.
When he thought about it, he felt that one person had to die anyway, and if one person had to die, that person would definitely not be himself.
After all, Gu Lengyi is right, he is the king of a country and the respect of the Ninth Five-Year Plan.
If he dies, what should he do in this world, he doesn't even have an heir now, and he won't even have anyone to inherit his throne in the future.
Zhu Jianshen comforts himself like this every time.
On the second day, the more Zhu Jianshen thought about it, the more he couldn't bear it.
So, he summoned Gu Lengyi and said to Gu Lengyi: "Father-in-law Gu, I have already considered the matter you proposed to me yesterday, and what you said is not entirely wrong. If someone has to die, I hope that person is not me. ”
"Your Majesty, it's good that you can figure it out. In that case, what does the emperor want to do now? Should we hurry up and deal with Tang Shufei now? ”
Zhu Jian thought deeply and said, "I think this matter is still done quietly." Father-in-law Gu, you go and prepare a pot of medicine, and we will go to Yonghe Palace to see Concubine Tang Shu now. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
So, Na Gu Leng agreed, went to prepare a pot of crane top red, and then went to see Tang Jingran with Zhu Jianshen.
Tang was bored writing and painting in the palace, and suddenly heard the palace maids come in to report, saying that the emperor was coming.
She was taken aback, happily greeted out, helped Zhu Jianshen in, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you haven't been here for some days." ”
Zhu Jianshen saw that Tang Jingran's complexion was much better than before, and the whole person seemed much brighter, clearer and more refreshing, which made him feel a little strange.
He saw that Tang Jingran was still dressed in white like jade, and the whole Jean was still like a shock, very beautiful, just like the person in the painting, and his heart swelled with a trace of unbearable color for a while.
And Gu Leng said on the side: "Concubine Shuniang, the emperor heard that you are a little unwell, so he specially prepared some medicines for you to calm your mind, I hope that Concubine Shuniang can drink these medicines." After the lady concubine drank the medicine, she would definitely be able to recover mentally as soon as possible. ”
"Ah, who said that Hongu is uncomfortable? Your Majesty, there is no such thing, the spirit of this palace has been very good recently, and there is no need to drink medicine. ”
Tang was shocked and immediately refused.
Of course, Tang Jingran didn't know that those medicines were poisonous, she just said so.
And Zhu Jianshen was a little embarrassed when he heard her say this.
In fact, he didn't want Tang Jingran to die in his heart, because Tang Jingran was still a very important person to him.
After all, Tang Jingran was the woman he loved with all his heart.
Gu Leng Yi saw Tang said this, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Niangniang, this is the emperor's kindness, you still don't want to live up to it." If you live up to the emperor's kindness, the emperor will probably feel distressed. ”
Gu Leng Yi spoke so presumptuously, which made Tang Jingran feel a little surprised.
Despite this, Tang Jingran still frowned and said to him: "Your Majesty, I don't want to drink medicine at all, so don't force me to drink it anymore." ”
Zhu Jianshen was slightly stunned, he personally brought the medicine over, brought it to Tang Jingran, and said to her: "Concubine Ai, in fact, these medicines are specially prepared for you, these medicines have a good effect on your body and can regulate your body." If you're really thinking about me, then drink this medicine. ”
After finishing speaking, he looked at Tang with anticipation.
Tang's frightened eyes were as bright as a lake full of autumn water.
She thought for a long time before she said to Zhu Jianshen: "Okay, the emperor, I didn't want to drink these medicines, but since the emperor wants me to drink them, then I'll drink them." ”
After saying that, she took the bowl of medicine.
After taking it, he was about to drink, and at this time, Zhu Jianshen's heart involuntarily "chuckled".
Zhu Jianshen suddenly thought of the first time he and Tang Jingran met, at that time, Tang Jingran fluttered down from the city wall, and the whole person was as beautiful as a fairy in Yaochi.
At that time, she had an ethereal figure, flowing hair, and looked like a person in a painting.
And now Tang Jingran is still the same complexion, why is Zhu Jianshen's love for her not as good as before.
Zhu Jianshen even did not hesitate to sacrifice his life for himself, and all this was the result of Zhu Jianshen's own planting.
So Zhu Jianshen only felt gloomy in his heart at this time.
Without thinking about it, he stretched out his hand to stop Tang Jingran.
He said to Don, "You can't drink it." ”
Tang was suddenly taken aback by Zhu Jianshen's words.
She stopped drinking the medicine, turned to look at Zhu Jianshen, and asked clearly, "Your Majesty, why can't you drink it?" Obviously you just asked me to drink this medicine, and now you say you can't drink it, what happened? ”
Zhu Jianshen shook his head a little embarrassed and said, "Nothing happened, the reason why I stopped you just now was because I suddenly remembered that this medicine was to be taken after meals." Let's go and prepare some side dishes for dinner. ”
So, Tang Jingran immediately agreed: "That's fine." ”
She instructed the palace maids and eunuchs to prepare all kinds of refreshments and side dishes.
Zhu Jianshen and Tang Jingran sat in the palace and drank each other, Zhu Jianshen sighed and said, "Unconsciously you have been in the palace for two or three years. ”
Tang smiled and said, "It turns out that the emperor still remembers it so clearly. ”
Zhu Jianshen also smiled and said, "Yes." I know from you that I remember every move, word and deed clearly. I'd like to ask you something. ”
"Your Majesty, if you have anything you want to ask Shock, just ask, Shocking will tell you if you know." Tang said with big innocent eyes.
Zhu Jianshen looked at her eyes like a wave of autumn water, and asked her: "Shocked, if one day I do something sorry for you, what will you think of me?" ”
"The emperor did something sorry for his concubines?"
Tang shook his head, thought for a long time and said: "Your Majesty, you are the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, and there are many times when you can't help yourself to do something. If one day you really do something sorry for the concubine, then the concubine will definitely choose to forgive the emperor. ”
"Will you really forgive me?" When Zhu Jianshen heard her say this, the guilt in his heart immediately decreased a lot.
Tang nodded again and again, and said, "Of course I will forgive the emperor, will I still lie to the emperor." Your Majesty, don't worry, why do you suddenly ask so many questions today? I've always felt like you're a little weird today. ”
Zhu Jianshen hurriedly smiled awkwardly, covering up his emotions just now, and said: "I didn't suddenly become like this, I have always been like this before, haven't you noticed?" ”
Tang was shocked and smiled silently.
