Seventy, a moment of breath

Empress Wu was so angry at this time that she was carried away, and she brought people here to ask for guilt.

She was worried that she couldn't find Wan Zhen'er's fault, and now seeing that Wan Zhen'er was so arrogant and rude, she immediately scolded: "Okay, you are a noble person, this palace is still the lord of the six palaces, the mother of a country, and the queen of the palace." You are just a little nobleman, and what are you, you dare not to salute when you see this palace. Come on, drag Wan Guiren down and beat the twenty boards, so that she knows what the end is without distinction between dignity and inferiority. ”

The palace maids and eunuchs looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Empress Wu's voice was very cold and said, "Didn't you listen to what this palace said?" When you don't have this palace? ”

The palace maids and eunuchs saw that Empress Wu was angry, so they came forward to salute Wan Zhen'er and said, "Niangniang, I'm sorry." ”

After speaking, he dragged Wan Zhen'er out of the bed and took her outside the dormitory, and beat her with a board.

Empress Wu also followed.

Wan Zhen'er was triumphant, completely unexpecting that Empress Wu would suddenly rush in and torture herself.

When the board hit her body, she only felt a burst of pain in her heart, and shouted repeatedly: "Queen Mother, you, how can you do this?" If the queen mother and the eldest princess of the two palaces know about it, they will definitely be with you. ”

"Humph! What if they don't finish with me, before that, this palace must punish you heavily, and see if you dare to calculate others with a full stomach of conspiracy in the future. Come on, give me a heavy blow. ”

The palace maids and eunuchs didn't dare to slack off, and hit Wan Zhen'er one after another.

Because they had never seen Empress Wu with such a thunderous fury.

No matter what, even if the queen is now guilty, she is still the queen, and Wan Zhen'er is just a thirty-six-year-old nobleman.

Mo said that the emperor doesn't favor her now, that is, even the queen mother and the eldest princess of the two palaces don't treat her very much.

The people in the palace are all with rainbow color white and tend to be inflammatory, since Empress Wu ordered them to beat, of course they will be beaten severely.

Wan Zhen'er let out a terrible wail, and the wailing slowly weakened, and gradually turned into a weak moan.

The board hit her hard, making her feel like it was coming out of her bones.

The palace people didn't know how many boards they played, and they quickly beat Wan Zhen'er to the ground.

Bright red blood stained her crimson shirt, and she couldn't tell whether it was blood or the original color of her clothes.

Seeing this, Mama Chen hid aside and didn't dare to speak out.

She knew that if she came out to intercede for Wan Zhen'er at this time, she would definitely be reprimanded by the queen, so she was not so stupid.

Although she usually saddles the horse and gives advice to Wan Zhen'er, what she does is just her own glory and wealth, she can share happiness with Wan Zhen'er, but she must not share hardships with Wan Zhen'er.

Su Mei didn't expect that after Queen Wu came to Wan Zhen'er's bedroom, the first thing she did was to order someone to drag her out and beat her severely.

When she saw that Empress Wu beat Wan Zhen'er to a non-humanoid shape, she only felt that grief and anger rushed to her head.

She attached it to Empress Wu's ear and whispered to her: "Queen Mother, now you have made a big mistake. Since Wan Guiren has been beaten by you, you might as well just beat her to death. If you don't kill her today, it will always be a disaster for you in the future. ”

Queen Wu just wanted to teach Wan Zhen'er a lesson, and she felt very comfortable to see her being beaten, after all, Wan Zhen'er had done so many bad things to frame herself.

But when she heard Su Mei say this, she was still so shocked that she took a big step back, looked straight at Su Mei with her eyes, and said, "What did you say?" ”

Su Mei whispered in her ear again: "Niangniang, what the slave said is for the sake of Niangniang. Niangniang beat Wan Guiren today, this is a big crime, and there is no difference between beating Wan Guiren to a non-humanoid shape and the crime of beating her to death. If Niangniang doesn't beat Wan Guiren to death today and let the tiger return to the mountain, in the end, Wan Guiren will definitely bite Niangniang back, and it will be Niangniang who will suffer at that time. ”

Empress Wu heard that Su Mei was very reasonable, so she thought about it and nodded, "Maybe you're right." ”

Su Mei let go of her voice and said to the palace maid and eunuch: "Our queen mother said, you have to beat her hard, beat her to death, and kill her to be responsible." ”

Su Mei's words fell on Wan Zhen'er's ears, and she knew that she couldn't escape today no matter what.

She never dreamed that Empress Wu usually looked so weak and had such a strong side.

At this moment, the pain spread all over her body, and she didn't have the strength to think at all, she just subconsciously begged for mercy: "Queen Mother, please let it go, I won't dare to do it in the future." Queen Mother, I know it's wrong, we sisters, can't you give me a chance? ”

Wan Zhen'er's voice of wailing and begging for mercy fell in the ears of Queen Wu, who felt a little unbearable when she saw her so pitiful, covered in blood.

She glanced at Su Mei, with a look of pity on her face, and said to Su Mei: "Su Mei, you see that we have almost taught her a lesson, I think she will never dare to do so many bad things in the future, we might as well let her go." ”

Su Mei shook her head very resolutely, and persuaded firmly: "Niangniang, if the queen mother and the eldest princess of the two palaces come after a while, do you think that Wan Guiren will still say that?" When the time comes, she will definitely bite back on Niangniang, saying that Niangniang wants to kill people and kill her mouth, and then Niangniang can't escape even if she wants to. Now that she was beaten to death like this, there will be no proof of death at that time, and the mother can say whatever she wants. ”

Empress Wu listened to what Su Mei said very reasonably, she knew what kind of person Wan Guiren was, if she let the tiger return to the mountain, she would have endless troubles.

Thinking of this, she sighed and nodded and said, "Okay, keep fighting." ”

Wan Zhen'er's voice became weaker and weaker, but she kept begging for mercy.

Her cry for mercy became more and more sorrowful, and Queen Wu heard the sound of the board hitting her again, only to feel that her ears were full of poignant sounds.

Seeing that Wan Zhen'er was beaten to a different human shape, she finally couldn't help waving her sleeves and said, "That's it, that's it, let's teach you a lesson here today, Mama Chen, you help your master down, go and ask a doctor to take a look at her." ”

After Empress Wu finished speaking, she turned around and left.

Su Mei followed closely and followed closely, she stomped her feet and asked Queen Wu: "Queen Mother, why do you want to let go of such a great opportunity, why do you still want to let the tiger return to the mountain?" Didn't the slave have already persuaded you just now? ”

Empress Wu glanced at Su Mei and said earnestly: "Su Mei, you don't know, although Wan Zhen'er can do anything to achieve her goal, this palace has never been able to do it. If Hongu does the same, what difference does it have with her? ”

Su Mei persuaded again and again, but Empress Wu just refused to comply.

In the end, there was no way, Su Mei had to let out a long sigh and said, "Niangniang, if you don't get rid of this person today, she will definitely take revenge in the future." ”

Empress Wu forced a smile and said, "Aren't there still two palaces in this harem, the queen mother and the eldest princess?" Maybe they'll call the shots for me. ”

After speaking, Empress Wu took Su Mei back to Kunning Palace.

Let's say that after Jian Huaizhen and Ling Luo returned to Wan'an Palace, they discussed who killed Xiangmei and who performed the technique of disgust.

After several discussions, they always felt that this matter was not so much involved with Empress Wu, and they always felt that with Empress Wu's character, they would never do such a fierce thing.

On the contrary, as for Wan Zhen'er, Jian Huaizhen and Scattered Luo no longer have a good impression of her.

They felt that Wan Zhen'er's thoughts were getting deeper and deeper, maybe all these things were planned by her.

And Jian Huaizhen made up his mind to talk to the emperor in order to keep Empress Wu's throne.

When she was about to go to the Qianqing Palace, suddenly a little eunuch outside broke in in a panic, and when she saw Jian Huaizhen, she bowed: "The eldest princess, something is wrong." ”

Jian Huaizhen saw that the little eunuch rushed in in a hurry, and he didn't report it, so he looked at him with some disgust and asked, "What happened?" Why is the panic like this? ”

The little eunuch knelt on the ground and said in a loud voice: "The eldest princess, the servant just got the news outside, and I heard that Empress Wu led a group of people to the palace of Wan Guiren and beat Wan Guiren. ”

"What? Empress Wu beat up Wan Guiren. ”

When Jian Huaizhen heard this, his face was suddenly covered with a layer of frost.

She hesitated for a while, and then she came to her senses and said to the little eunuch: "You continue to go out to inquire about the news, and come back to tell me any news." ”

"Yes."

The little eunuch agreed, got up, and ran out. ”

After a long while, the little eunuch came back and said to Jian Huaizhen: "Emperor Qiyu, the eldest princess, the servant has inquired about the news clearly, and the news is conclusive. It was indeed the queen who beat the nobles. ”

Jian Huaizhen asked in astonishment, "Isn't the queen grounded in Kunning Palace?" Why did he suddenly run to Wan Guiren's side to beat her? ”

"This slave is not very clear, but the slave heard that it was the queen mother who went to the palace of Wan Guiren, and Wan Guiren leaned on the bed and refused to get up, which angered the queen mother. The queen ordered someone to drag her out to fight 20 boards, who knew that the more she fought, the more she would fight, and in the end, Su Mei also said that she would beat Wan Guiren to death. ”

"And in the end?" Jian Huaizhen asked eagerly.

She didn't want to see Empress Wu bear the responsibility of murder.

"In the end, the slaves didn't know, but I heard that Empress Wu took people back to Kunning Palace, and everything on Wan Guiren's side was taken care of by Mama Chen."

Jian Huaizhen nodded, with a very angry look on her face, and she said, "Okay, you go back, this palace has its own disposal." ”

After the little eunuch retreated, Jian Huaizhen sighed heavily and said, "Empress Wu, this kid has always been very smart, why did she do such a stupid thing this time?" ”

Scattered said disapprerovingly: "Niangniang, have you heard a word?" The so-called dog jumps over the wall when he is in a hurry, and the rabbit bites when he is in a hurry, not to mention that it is such a big person as Queen Wu, she was framed by someone, and she was so angry for no reason, and she has nowhere to vent her anger in her heart, I am afraid it is inevitable. ”

Jian Huaizhen sighed infinitely and said, "Despite this, she shouldn't do this. In this way, Bengong just wants to protect her, but he can't protect her. ”

Seeing that Jian Huaizhen still wanted to protect Empress Wu, Ling Luo asked, "Princess, is your heart still on Empress Wu's side now?" The slave was curious. ”

Jian Huaizhen said slowly: "Can't you see the scattering? Empress Wu was just angry with Wan Zhen'er, so she wanted to punish her, she didn't mean to kill Wan Zhen'er. If this is the case, Wan Zhen'er will have a life. ”

"Oh?" Ling Luo was very surprised, and continued to look at Jian Huaizhen, hoping that she could explain clearly.

Jian Huaizhen said slowly: "Empress Wu scolded Wan Zhen'er, the queen mother of the two palaces and the palace were not present at that time, it is reasonable for her to beat Wan Zhen'er with the respect of the queen, she just beat Wan Zhen'er to death, and no one can control it." And if Wan Zhen'er was beaten to death by her, everything would be much easier, but she didn't do it, but let Wan Zhen'er go, which shows that she is a kind-hearted person, and being beaten is also a momentary will. Seeing that Jian Huaizhen thought exactly like herself, she said with a smile: "The slave maid thinks the same way, the slave maid always feels that the queen doesn't look like a violent person no matter how she looks at it." ”

"Alas," Jian Huaizhen sighed infinitely.

"No matter what kind of person the queen is, she will definitely not be able to keep her position this time. The Empress Dowager Zhou already had a grudge against her, and now that so many things have happened, how can the Empress Dowager Zhou easily forgive her, the palace just wants to explain her, and I am afraid that she will not be able to find an excuse. ”

As Jian Huaizhen was talking, another little eunuch came to invite her, saying that the emperor, Empress Dowager Qian and Empress Dowager Zhou were already waiting for her in Qianqing Palace.

Jian Huaizhen had long expected that what should come would definitely come.

Therefore, he changed into a shirt and walked towards the Qianqing Palace with his scarlets.

The emperor was sitting on the dragon chair, and when he saw Jian Huaizhen coming, he greeted her.

Jian Huaizhen also greeted the emperor and sat down on the side.

The Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces and Zhu Jianshen both looked solemn.

Seeing Jian Huaizhen, Empress Dowager Zhou glanced at her coldly and said, "The eldest princess, the mourning family said that the matter was resolved, but you didn't have to drag it out, so now it's going to be dragged out." ”

Jian Huaizhen knew that Empress Dowager Zhou took the opportunity to provoke her, so she didn't reply to her, but just asked, "Your Majesty, how do you plan to deal with this matter?" ”

Zhu Jianshen held his head in his hands, with a look of embarrassment on his face, and said, "Don't come to ask me, I don't know how to deal with it." I always felt that Empress Wu was not like such a person. ”

"What does it matter if it is like or not, the facts are there. Empress Wu was annoyed and angry, and led people to make trouble in the palace of Wan Guiren, beating Wan Guiren to a non-humanoid shape, and now she is still lying on the bed and can't even say a word. The queen is really bold, is there any queen mother of our two palaces in her eyes, is there still an emperor, and is there an elder like the eldest princess? Empress Dowager Zhou looked very resentful.

Zhu Jianshen raised his head, glanced at Jian Huaizhen deeply, and said, "I don't know what the eldest princess thinks in her heart?" ”

Jian Huaizhen shook his head and said: "So far, this palace just wants to say that this matter may not be the fault of Queen Wu, the so-called dog jumping off the wall in a hurry, rabbit in a hurry to bite people, Queen Wu must have suffered some great grievance to do such a thing." ”

"So far, the eldest princess, you are still so partial to Queen Wu, is there any royal law in our harem and our country?" Empress Dowager Zhou asked in a loud voice.

Obviously, she was very angry about this matter, and she continued to ask: "Originally, this matter could be solved quickly, but the eldest princess said that she would delay it for the time being, and then find a way to solve it tomorrow." It was because of the delay in this day that she almost lost one of the names of Wan Guiren, which was a good thing done by the eldest princess. ”

Jian Huaizhen saw that Empress Dowager Zhou's words already had the intention of blaming herself, and she was angry for a while, and she sat there for a long time without speaking.

Empress Dowager Qian saw that Empress Dowager Zhou and Jian Huaizhen were very stiff, so she opened her mouth and persuaded her: "The eldest princess is an elder, Empress Dowager Zhou should not collide with her, not to mention that now is not the time to investigate whose responsibility it is, let's think about how to solve this matter." ”

Empress Dowager Zhou stood up angrily and said: "What else is there to solve this, this slut of the Wu family has done such an outrageous bad thing, if she is still kept, what kind of face will our royal family have to face the world." Your Majesty, if you don't dispose of the Wu clan, then your mother and I won't live. ”

With that, she stood up and slammed into a nearby pillar.

In fact, Empress Dowager Zhou likes to behave coyly, and is good at crying, making trouble, and hanging herself, all of whom have seen it, but at this moment, Zhu Jianshen is indeed angry in her heart.

He couldn't understand why he was so good to Empress Wu, and she had to do so many things to embarrass herself.

Therefore, he said to the little eunuch and the palace maid: "Hurry up and hold the Empress Dowager Zhou." ”

When the eunuch and the palace maid finally pulled the Empress Dowager Zhou back to her seat, Zhu Jianshen turned his face and said to the Empress Dowager Zhou: "Since the queen mother is pressuring, the sons have nothing to say. Now, let's abolish the throne of Empress Wu. Zhu Jianshen said this sentence with great difficulty.

After saying this, his throat ached, and he only felt very hesitant in his heart.

Seeing this, Jian Huaizhen knew that it took him a lot of effort to say his own plan, so he persuaded him from the side: "Your Majesty, it's better to think twice." This matter has never been investigated, if everything before was planned by Wan Guiren to frame the queen, the queen can still be justified if she scolds her now. ”

Zhu Jianshen hesitated for a long time, then turned his face to Jian Huaizhen and said: "What the eldest princess said is not unreasonable, but how can a dignified country allow a person with a heart like a snake and a scorpion and a vicious heart to do it?" Therefore, I have decided to abolish Empress Wu as empress. ”

Jian Huaizhen and Empress Dowager Qian saw that Zhu Jianshen had already made a decision, so they had no choice but to stop talking.

Because all the people have already seen this matter, if the emperor doesn't do anything, it will be really difficult to block the mouths of the world.
