Chapter 278: I want Concubine He's head
He Angelica's phoenix eyes widened, what did the man in black say? Don't forget the pride of "our" Mongols, forget the shame of the ruined country!
What did he mean by his words, Zhu Quan is also a Mongolian? How is it possible, Zhu Quan is Zhu Yuanzhang's son, there should be no doubt about this, from his complicated feelings for Zhu Yuanzhang, from the ruthlessness and ruthlessness that he is as unique to Zhu Yuanzhang, his extreme contempt for women, and his ruthlessness in destroying flowers at every turn, these are all similar to the Ninety-Five Emperor in the imperial city. How could Zhu Quan be a Mongol?
Zhu Quan frowned and said: "Gao Shenjun, don't go too far, even if you are an old minister of the former dynasty, you have to weigh it and then talk to this king, which is more important than the country and the woman, and the king will be divided at the age of three, so you don't need to preach here!" ”
The man named "Gao Shenjun" sneered: "I see, the prince's wings are stiff, and there is no need for his subordinates, so I have nothing to say, but I want to ask the prince for something before returning to his hometown. ”
"What's that?" Zhu Quan asked as he looked out the window.
Gao Xianjun also looked out the window, where a golden pole was hanging, and a green-haired and red-beaked parrot was tied to it, and he shouted in a deep voice: "He Concubine's head! Your Majesty wants the head of He Concubine! ”
The parrot was a clever little thing that learned to speak, and when he heard it, he immediately called: "I want the head of He Concubine!" I want the head of He Concubine! ”
Zhu Quanjian frowned and asked, "Why?" Didn't you just say you never knew her? Why do you want her head now? I have my own conclusion on this matter, you don't need to interject much, and I don't mean to put you aside, our great cause has a long way to go, and this king still has a lot to rely on you. ”
Gao Xianjun's voice carried a sneer: "Lord Wang, speaking of which, you just refuse to kill Concubine He, I remember that nine years ago, Lord Wang was still a ruthless character who acted decisively and never left any troubles. Your subordinates slaughtered the village in order to find the rebel general, killing many old and weak women and children, and you sent him down on the surface, but secretly replaced him with other death row prisoners, and transferred him to Wu Ying Pavilion, and relied on him even more. It can be seen that you are also a person who knows how to kill and decide, and admires people who have the courage to kill and decide, why can't you do it to a concubine now? ”
Zhu Quan was silent for a long time and replied: "She has my child in her belly, and the tiger poison does not eat children, so I can't kill her and the child." ”
"Whether the child is yours or not has to be seen for another day," Gao Xianjun said sinisterly, "Look at her belly is not small, and she will be born soon, right?" The prime minister stayed in the palace for a few more days, and waited for the prince's concubine He to give birth to a child, and then asked the prince for her head. ”
At this time, the parrot outside the window was still shouting: "Ga! Rattle! I want the head of He Concubine! I want the head of He Concubine! He Concubine's head! ”
Zhu Quan slowly refused: "The child is born and needs to be taken care of by his mother to grow up, and no one takes care of her more thoughtfully than his mother, so I can't give you her head." Feeling the anger bursting from the men around him, Zhu Quan turned to say, "However, if it is found out that she has really betrayed this king, this king will eradicate this scourge and prevent her from ruining our plans. ”
"Oh?" Gao Xianjun asked curiously, "What is the better punishment for the prince?" This is a good way to go back to the Jinyi Mansion to show off. He Angelica raised his eyes and stared at this man in black on the ice surface, it turned out that he was Jinyiwei?
Zhu Quan put the citrus in his hand to his nose, sniffed lightly and said: "This king said, the child can't live without his mother, so her life should be recorded for the time being, the death penalty can be avoided and the living crime cannot be escaped, if she changes her mind, this king will burn her throat with hot coals, so that she can't speak, and can't leak the news; and smoked her eyes, so that she could not read the letters; In the end, the king will personally pinch her tendons and tendons, so that she will not be able to hold a pen from now on. In this way, our secrets will not be leaked. ”
He Angelica heard the hatred in her heart, and the pain that was poured through her throat with hot coals appeared again, making her shudder. So vicious Zhu Quan, I was born and died for you, how could I ever be half sorry for you?!
But Gao Shenjun was not very satisfied with what he heard, sneered twice, and said, "It's just like this? I thought the prince was having some new way to play, but I didn't expect it to be a trick that I was tired of using in my own face, which was disappointing. Lord Wang, your method sounds ruthless, but you are merciful to her everywhere, and you still keep her flower and moon appearance and warm fragrant nephrite, and continue to raise it in the palace, do you still want to live with her? The original appearance is to ask for the head of He Concubine, and the prince will not give it! ”
"I want the head of He Concubine! Rattle! I want the head of He Concubine! "Outside the window, the parrot flapped its wings, jumping and barking.
Zhu Quan's eyes shrank suddenly, and the citrus in his hand was thrown out, and he didn't even see the trajectory in the air, and the green-haired parrot outside the window had no head, falling from the golden shelf, hanging a thin anklet dangling in the air. Zhu Quan gritted his teeth and said: "You don't want to inch in, forget about humility, you are just a dog of my mother's concubine, why do you want me to love the concubine's head!" ”
Gao Shenjun let out a sharp laugh, which sounded like the cry of some kind of animal, and he nodded: "It turns out that the prince still remembers Yang Hua, the lord of Xiye County, who abandoned her husband with the infamy of 'water-based Yang Hua' and followed Zhu Yuanzhang, and served Zhu Yuanzhang that old bastard with a devouring attitude, and finally broke up in order to protect you, pinning the hope of recovering the country on you, to this day, is she not as good as a concubine?" "He Angelica's eyes are wide open, Yang Hua, the lord of the fine leaves? Hope for reinstatement? Could it be that Zhu Quan's mother, Concubine Yang, was Mongolian?
Zhu Quan's upper and lower teeth fought, and he said coldly: "What are you doing with all this?" Who allowed you to call my mother by her first name? ”
"What's the point of calling her by her name," Gao Xianjun said with a smile, "Your concubine He Concubine also made a puppet and cursed your mother to have no peace underground, this kind of poisonous woman, you actually spoiled her to the sky?" The son of the lord of the county of Hosoha is really filial! ”
Zhu Quan jumped up and grabbed Gao Xianjun's collar, and shouted in a deep voice: "What nonsense are you talking about, Concubine He has never seen my mother at all, and she has no grudge against her, why should she curse my mother concubine!" Mingyue is right, you are here to sow discord and destroy our husband and wife relationship, what are your intentions! Who sent you! ”
Gao Shenjun took back his collar, smoothed his clothes, and said unhurriedly: "The hero is sad to pass the beauty pass, the prince, you are not exempt from vulgarity, it really disappoints people, and now you don't even believe in your closest people, but defend a lowly born adulteress......" He threw an object on the bookcase and sneered, "Lord Wang, look at what this is?" ”
Zhu Quan picked up a closer look, a witch puppet, the stitches are fine and exquisite, very similar to He Concubine's craftsmanship, and the eight characters of birth written on it are the eight characters of his mother Yang Hua, the most incredible thing is that the handwriting is clearly ...... He Concubine's handwriting!
Zhu Quan pulled out dozens of thin silver needles on it with one hand, broke them, and then twisted them into broken silver chips. He grabbed the doll and walked out the door, saying as he went, "I don't believe this thing came from her, I'm going to ask her personally!" ”
"Wait!" Gao Xianjun stopped, "You are holding a witch puppet like this, and you run to ask her aggressively, she saw the incident, and it was too late to prevaricate, how could she obediently admit the crime?" ”
"So what do you say you should do?" Zhu Quan frowned and turned around and asked, "Do you have a way?" ”
Gao Xianjun attached his ear and said like this, Zhu Quan nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it." Then the images on the right wall are all gone.
The image on the left wall continues, the silhouette of a pair of teenagers and girls is very beautiful under the reflection of the sunset, a leaf falls on the girl's delicate bun, Qi Xuanyu raised his hand to take it off for her, handed her the rhombic glasses, and said with a smile: "The mask of the fairy is put on, take a look, do you look like this?" ”
The girl turned her back to He Angelica, but the face reflected in the bronze mirror was wearing a "fairy mask". It was clearly He Angelica's face, the face she saw in the mirror when she looked in the mirror every day.
The girl was stunned for a long time, then stroked her face in surprise and cried out incoherently, "I...... This is my face! How...... Brother Fairy, what's going on? ”
Qi Xuanyu smiled softly, and said proudly: "Didn't I tell you, I have a pair of heavenly eyes, I can see your true face through scars, I drew your face according to memory, found another immortal, and asked him to make you a mask, with this, you will never have to wear a hat in the future." Xiao Shi, if you don't believe me, you can go outside and see if anyone can laugh at you for being ugly. ”
He Angelica approached and took a closer look, it was a human skin mask, vivid. There are only one "immortals" in the world who can make this thing.
The girl first smiled happily, then covered her face and cried, "Can I only live with a mask in my life?" ”
Qi Xuanyu comforted her: "This mask is light and breathable, you won't feel stuffy when you wear it all day long, it's almost the same as not wearing it, and it won't be bad if you can last for half a year, you can wear it with peace of mind, this is your true appearance, you don't have to feel ashamed." ”
The girl still cried sadly: "What about half a year later?" The mask is a mask in the end, even if you give me ten or eight brothers, there will be a time when it runs out, and there will be a day when you have to face the world with your true face, from extremely beautiful to extremely ugly, and the taste of being ridiculed before and after people, I don't want to taste it a second time, Brother Fairy, you just let me be so ugly all the time, hide in the corner and don't see people. ”
Qi Xuanyu was silent for a moment, and said: "You wait, I will go to the north and south of the river to find famous doctors to apprentice, learn the best medical skills, cure your face, become as beautiful as before, you wait, at most a year, I will be able to cure your face, as long as you use up the two masks, you can have your former appearance again." ”
The girl immediately believed it, and she burst into tears of gratitude and smiled: "Thank you, when I get better, I will sing to you every day." ”
Qi Xuanyu pressed the girl's head into his arms and said with a smile: "Finally stopped crying, what a crybaby." ”
Looking at the two little guesses of the two embracing each other, He Angelica was thinking about the witch puppet that Gao Shenjun took out just now, and the puppet was indeed from her hand, but it was the fourth year that she became Zhu Quan's favorite concubine, and she did it when she was nineteen years old. At that time, Shangguan said tomorrow that a certain operation needed a prop, and asked her to complete it on her behalf, and also explained all the details of the puppet and asked her to do it for comparison. Then how did the witch puppet run into the hands of Gao Shenjun? Could it be that Shangguan will be with him tomorrow?
It was terrible, it turned out that when she was nineteen years old, Shangguan would take something from her tomorrow in the name of official business that was enough to kill her. He hated her like that, but he kept that thing for nine years before taking it out to harm her, which was really forbearing. But why did he endure it for so long? Why did Gao Xianjun designate her head?
It turned out that Gao Xianjun and Shangguan Tomorrow were also among the people who killed her.
