252.The Pain of the Concubine (2)
The words were heavy, and in the end, my eyes fell on Concubine Lu. In the case that Ah Ping can't rush to the rescue, the only hope can only be her, others may not care about the child in my belly, but she is Ah Ping's mother, it is impossible not to care.
Concubine Lu and I looked at each other for a moment, her eyes flashed, and she turned to the concubine: "Concubine, it is better to investigate this matter carefully and then make a decision?" However, the concubine showed no mercy at all, and reprimanded Concubine Lu with a calm face: "Concubine Lu, it's not that you want to say that the harem should be in charge of you, but there is such a major incident in the palace and it is not strictly investigated, isn't this your dereliction of duty?" A dares to shout in front of the mourning family, it's all against the sky, what if she is pregnant with the grandson of the emperor? The mourners want to see what happens to you today! Pull this away for the mourning family, and the violator will be beheaded! ”
This time, the palace people didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and the two of them were about to drag me away, only to hear two muffled noises behind me, and then the palace people who pulled me also fell to the ground. When I turned my eyes, I saw that Yan Qi had already gotten up from the ground, and a dodge was in front of me, his eyes were sharp and vigilant, and he didn't let anyone get close to me. After Xiaotong got up from the ground, he also stopped in front of me and asked anxiously: "Sister, are you okay?" ”
His heart sank to the bottom, and it was obvious that Yan Qi couldn't hold his breath just now, and this move became unreasonable.
The concubine was so frightened by the sudden change that she retreated, and all the eunuchs and palace maids stopped in front of her, and some people shouted "protect the concubine Niangniang", "protect Concubine Lu" and "protect ...... Niangniang "In short, she is the master of various titles, and the concubine has seen a big scene in the chaos, she first calmed down and was furious: "Presumptuous!" It is really bold to dare to commit a crime, come to someone, take them all down for the mourning family, and those who dare to resist will be killed on the spot! ”
A eunuch was stunned, "They? Is it even the imperial concubine? ”
The concubine was so angry that she kicked the eunuch over, "The mourning family said that it was those two dog slaves!" ”
"Who dare?" At this time, I also let go, if I can't escape this catastrophe today, then I will definitely not let Yan Qi and Xiaotong suffer the shame of being examined on the spot, not to mention that the concubine has issued a death order.
Xiaotong is my younger brother, and Yan Qi has lived and died with me on the same battlefield, and neither of them is willing to give up.
met the angry gaze of the concubine, saying that I was unruly or not, in short, my attitude was no longer respectful, and said to her word by word: "This is Orchid Garden, which was the residence of Queen Ma back then, and was given to me by the emperor himself. ”
The concubine took two steps back in shock, her body trembled as if she couldn't stand, it was the old lady next to her who stepped forward to help her so that she wouldn't fall in embarrassment, she stretched out her finger and pointed at me and said in a trembling voice: "You... You... Dare to use Ma Xiuying and the emperor to press me? ”
"I'm not pressuring you, I'm telling the truth."
"Someone," the concubine looked around in a panic, "will... Tie up this slut to the mourning family, no, it's a cane! ”
"Concubine, please calm your anger." Concubine Lu finally pleaded at this time. But the concubine obviously couldn't listen to it anymore, it seemed that I had said the wrong thing, and Queen Ma's name had stimulated her to the point of being completely irrational. But at this time, how can I think about what to say and what not to say, and this inexplicable concubine is afraid that the original intention is not to check the harem, but to deliberately target me, intending to move the people around me to kill chickens and monkeys?
Someone surrounded me, someone was opened by Yan Qi, and someone grabbed my arm, Xiao Tong hit it desperately, and the moment the stick was swung down, I instinctively pounced on him. The pain spread from the back to the whole body, and when I raised my head, I only saw Concubine Lu's panicked eyes, the concubine's fierce expression, and the vast world, the strings in my brain were broken, and I am afraid that I will not be able to get over it today.
I regret it so much, I shouldn't have gone to find Xiaotong, if I didn't look for him, even if I was resentful and hateful, I could at least live on that mountain, and I thought about bringing him back but sent his life here.
There is also Yan Qi, no matter how high his martial arts are, he refuses to give up me, he has received many sticks on his shoulders and waist, and the corners of his mouth have overflowed with blood.
Ah Ping, why don't you come yet? Where were you when I was most helpless? Tears slipped from the corners of his eyes and stinged his eyes, but after all, he still lost to the government and this right.
"Childe!" Yan Qi's shout shook my gradually blurred consciousness, and I slowly turned my eyes and saw the white-clothed figure walking slowly, my misty vision could no longer see my face clearly, and I only felt that the hot tears flowed.
When the familiar breath enveloped me, I thought I was trembling from the pain, and when my body was picked up, I realized that it was the person holding me who was trembling. Listen only to the suppressed, painful, and cold voice that sounded overhead: "Behead all those who have done it here." I grabbed him by the hem of his shirt: "Don't! ”
And the concubine's angry voice overshadowed me: "Ping'er, you dare to be presumptuous to the mourning family!" ”
"Concubine Li Shu, people must first insult themselves and then others insult them." There was no trace of warmth in that voice, "Since you have escaped into the Buddha Gate, you should not come back to stir up this troubled water." The Li family was once glorious because of you, and it is bound to disappear because of you. ”
Plum! I finally found the reason, it turns out that the concubine is the force behind Li Lin! When it is really a causal cycle, Ah Ping borrowed the power of the Qin and Li families to consolidate the regime, and suppressed the Qin and Li families in the air when the power was in their hands, and the daughter of the Li family seemed to be beaten into the cold palace, so the concubine of the Li family came to the door.
Suddenly I felt very sad, is this called being fooled by fate? And fate has never favored me, and this time is no exception.
It was Xiaotong's terrible voice and shouted: "Sister! It shook my heart, thinking that something had happened to him, and grabbed Ah Ping's arm and begged: "Save Xiaotong." But the voice that came out of me was like an ant, and the little one was afraid that he couldn't even hear it closely. In the next moment, I heard a trembling voice echoing in my ears: "Lan, you can't be fine, please can't be okay." Called the Imperial Doctor...... Call the Imperial Doctor! ”
The last three words were shouted out, which almost deafened my ears and blurred my consciousness.
Only then did I feel a piercing pain spreading from my body to the nerve endings, because my back was so painful from being pumped with a stick that my whole body was numb and even my nerve senses were interrupted. Suddenly, a strong bad feeling came over me, and the pain in my body came from ...... Alvine?
Ah Ping... Ah Ping... Tell me it's not true!
After feeling that her body was carried away for a few steps, she paused, and Concubine Lu's voice floated: "Bing'er, don't be impulsive!" But what he got was Ah Ping's unscrupulous roar: "If something happens to her today, I want everyone present to bury her together!" ”
He's crazy!
My heart crossed this cognition, but at this time, I couldn't open my eyes anymore, only to feel that the breath of my body was knocked away as soon as I was flattened, followed by Xiaotong's cry: "You get out, you hurt my sister." What palace, what concubine, what imperial grandson, it's you, it's you who killed my sister! ”
No, Xiaotong, I'm not dead......
There was gravity buried in me, and Xiaotong was crying in pain: "Sister, I will take you home, I will definitely take you home, you can't leave me anymore, I already only have you." ”
Xiaotong...... I'm sorry, it's Sister who can't stand you and makes you suffer humiliation and fear.
"Pull him away." After a deep order, only Xiaotong's hysterical roar was heard, but it gradually pulled away. Instead of a familiar breath, he gently picked me up in his arms, and the sad sobs twitched into his eardrums: "Lan, don't leave me." ”
My heart is so compassionate, even if I don't want to annihilate my consciousness and let fate dominate it, how can I ever make a decision? In the end, his mind was withdrawn and he fell into darkness completely.
Ups and downs, like a ship floating on the sea. It was the feeling I felt after I had been in the dark for an unknown amount of time when I was awakened by a voice that stopped making a sound and had to sense my surroundings with what little sense I had.
I don't know how long I was floating on the sea, but I was finally able to hear more, and I realized that the voice that woke me up before was in my consciousness, not in my ears. In addition to the sound of the waves, I heard a wisp of sound, which was nearby, and I thought I couldn't open my mouth to ask, but I found that I could hear my own voice after just turning around: "Who are you?" ”
A light sigh came, as if from a very distant place: "I thought we wouldn't meet again." ”
I paused, this voice was very familiar, and after thinking for a long time, I finally remembered who it was. The voice that once dreamed of me through history and recognized reality, no matter how much I dreamed again, never appeared.
In such a long time, it is not that this voice has not been interpreted and analyzed, vaguely guessed but not certain.
I repeated, "Who are you?" ”
There was a long silence, but I could feel that it was still around, and I had no idea of time at this time, so I didn't feel bored waiting, and I was sure that the voice would come up again.
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is that you're back here."
Come back...... When was the last time you "met" him? And what is this place? Underworld?
