Chapter 099: Crying! Cry hard! (2/2)
"Go!"
"Erase Dou Ying's palace registration!"
"Don't let me see that bastard in front of my eyes again!!"
returned to the dormitory and sat on the couch angrily, and the Empress Dowager Dou only felt the anger in her heart surging up.
- Just one step away!
Just send the Son of Heaven Liu Dian Yin, and Liu Wu, the King of Liang, to become the prince of the prince's younger brother!
From then on, Empress Dowager Dou could no longer worry about not seeing Liu Wu and missing Liu Wu;
There is no need to rack your brains and think about what you should do in order to let your baby granddaughter Gillian marry the future prince smoothly.
Empress Dowager Dou naturally thought about what obstacles her plan would face, and what kind of methods would Liu Qi, the son of heaven, use to deal with it.
But after thousands of calculations, the Empress Dowager Dou did not calculate: her own nephew Dou Ying······
"Bastard!"
"Bastard !!"
The more you think about it, the more angry you get, and the more you think about it when you take a step back, the more you lose;
In a fit of rage, Empress Dowager Dou slammed the dove cane in her hand, learned from Li Ji for the first time, and began to smash the utensils placed in the hall;
But as a figure appeared at the gate of the palace, the maidservant beside her also hurriedly stepped forward to remind that the Empress Dowager Dou, who was wielding a dove staff to 'kill the Quartet', finally had to take a deep breath and grope her way back to sit back on the couch.
"Queen Mother······
A slight call with a weak heart provoked the Empress Dowager Dou to turn her head away angrily, and she didn't forget to snort coldly, and the face of Liu Qi, the son of heaven, couldn't help but swell with a touch of embarrassment.
With a slight wave of his hand, he signaled the palace people in the palace to retreat, and stepped forward lightly;
Just as he was about to sit down next to the Empress Dowager Dou, he heard an extremely cold tone sounding beside him······
"-Dou Ying's bastard, was arranged by the emperor?"
"Could it be that the emperor already knew that there was that edict, so he arranged Dou Ying in advance to do bad things at the palace banquet?!"
asked mercilessly, but the smile on Liu Qi's face froze on his face, and a touch of sadness quietly surged between his eyebrows.
But soon, Liu Qi adjusted his mood, chuckled and stretched out his hand, and lifted up the smashed oil lamp on the imperial case.
"Queen Mother, how can you think of a child so much?"
"That incident was originally brought up by the child himself······"
"—When will the emperor lie to me?!!"
"—Do you really think that if I'm blind, I can't understand anything!!"
didn't wait for Liu Qi's words to fall, but saw the Empress Dowager Dou turn around suddenly, her eyes were clearly scattered and unfocused, but it made Liu Qi even more angry in those sloppy eyes.
As soon as the movements in his hands stopped, the smile on his face stiffened, and Liu Qi, the son of heaven, couldn't help but be stunned in place.
After being stunned for three breaths, Liu Qicai continued to move on his hands, straightened the oil lamp, and the smile on his face quietly disappeared on Liu Qi's face with the re-lit light.
"Since the queen mother also knows that the child is coaxing Ah Wu, why did she take out that edict?"
"Does the queen mother have to force the child to pretend to be a real one, set a precedent for this brother to end up with his brother, and let the future monarch live in fear of his uncle and brother day and night?"
"If you really want to pass on this temple and Sheji to the third child, after the child dies, how can you face the questioning of Emperor Taizu Gao and Emperor Taizong Xiaowen under Jiuquan?"
asked three questions one after another, Liu Qi no longer pretended to be stupid, and his face sank quietly.
"It's too long ago for the child to talk about it;"
"Let's just say that in the past 100 years, because of the uncle and nephew competing for the throne, the tragedy that eventually led to the destruction of the country and the family, is there still less?"
"During the Warring States Period, were there still fewer countries that only cared about grabbing power with their families, but allowed Yingqin to become stronger and stronger, and eventually led to the subversion of the temple?"
"-Why doesn't the queen mother want to think about it, if the child really passes on the third throne, what will happen to the grandchildren of the queen mother?"
"The third child has succeeded to the throne, can he still accommodate those nephews?"
"Mother, do you have to let her grandson, my Liu family's bloodline, be slaughtered by the third child after the succession because of the child's fault?"
"——Does the queen mother want the third child to become a cruel and tyrannical person like the Empress Dowager Lu?"
"It's still the queen mother herself, who wants to be the next Empress Dowager Lu······"
Impulsive!!!
As Liu Qi's tone became more and more low, Empress Dowager Dou only felt that her anger was getting stronger;
When she heard the last sentence of 'Does the queen mother want to be the Empress Dowager Lu', the anger in the chest of the Empress Dowager Dou could no longer be suppressed, and it was vented to Liu Qi, the son of heaven, without reservation.
"—Is this how the son blames the mother?!!"
"I was pregnant for nine months, and at the risk of losing my life, I gave birth to the emperor for the Liu family, is it my fault!!
"I opened branches for the Liu family, is it to listen to my son and teach my mother and the queen mother of the Han family here!!!!!"
slapped his palm on the imperial case in front of him, and saw the Empress Dowager Dou get up from the couch, full of pottery anger, and threw the dove staff in her hand aside.
"When did I say that I would let the third generation sit on the throne for generations?!"
"Isn't the emperor's son young?!"
"Isn't it okay to let the third child take over the emperor's throne and return the throne to the emperor's son in the future!!"
After a few more roars, Empress Dowager Dou's tone became a little choked, and tears couldn't stop falling;
The face that was crossed by tears was already full of grievances.
"I have served Emperor Taizong for nearly thirty years, but I only have two sons and one daughter left."
"In order to let the emperor sit firmly in the storage position, I have to endure the face of Shen Ji, and I have to be scared by Liu Yi's little child, and I am scared all day long!"
"Emperor Taizong is gone, I lost my husband, but I can only endure the pain of losing my husband and tell myself: Finally, when the emperor inherits the throne, I don't have to worry about the emperor's throne anymore;"
"The result?"
"——Since you succeeded to the throne, emperor, have you ever been to this Changle Palace to see my blind old woman?"
"In the past two years, the third child has handed over hundreds of notes, and he wants to come to Chang'an to see me, the emperor, have you ever agreed?"
Asked with sad eyes, the Empress Dowager Dou was already in tears, and she sat back on the couch with her strength off, wiping away her tears miserably.
"I'm getting old······"
"Useless ······"
"I know that the emperor is busy, and I can't block the emperor's ······"
"But I want to see my son, I want him to be with me, and I want to be served by my son for a few more days before I go into the ground;"
"Is that wrong?!"
"——The emperor himself could not fulfill the responsibility of filial piety to his mother because of the responsibility of the temple and the society; I don't blame the emperor, and I don't dare to blame. ”
"But why did the emperor stop his own brother from fulfilling his duty of filial piety to his mother, so that I, a blind old woman, could feel the joy of my children by my side?"
"Isn't it true that if you are the queen mother, you don't deserve to enjoy the family fun of your children and grandchildren around your knees?"
"Could it be that if you become an emperor, you can use the name of 'Zongmiao Sheji' to coax the younger brother of a mother's compatriot and give birth to his own mother·······
In a mournful tone, she said something that seemed to be a question or an accusation, and the Empress Dowager Dou couldn't cry anymore, and her already sloppy gaze was even more stunned to an unknown place;
Only the hot tears, one drop after another, slipped from the sockets of the eyes, and in a moment, they soaked the placket of the clothes······
And beside the Empress Dowager Dou, listening to her mother, complaining about her crimes with tears in her eyes, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, had already red eyes.
With his hands propped up on his side, he looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, and Liu Qi, the son of heaven, had to get up with bitterness and slowly knelt down in front of the Empress Dowager Dou.
"Child, even if there are all kinds of mistakes, it is still for the sake of the temple and the community ······"
"The sheji left by Emperor Taizong Xiaowen to the child is too heavy and too heavy·······"
"The child can only use such despicable means to coax his half-brother, so as to barely ensure that the society left by the emperor will not be lost in the hands of the child·······"
"The mother's reproach, child, dare not refute;"
"Tears after provoking the mother, child, sin deserves death!"
"But why does the queen mother turn a blind eye to the child's suffering······"
said with a sad expression, and on Liu Qi's face, there were already a little tears on it;
Kneeling down in front of his mother, his hands carefully on his mother's knees, Liu Qi looked at the Empress Dowager Dou's gaze, and he became more and more aggrieved, sad, and a lingering pain.
"The queen mother also said that at that time, the father was unwilling to pass on the throne to the child;"
"In this great position, the child fights for himself, and also for the queen mother."
"Big seat, the child has already fought for it."
"But the weight of this temple and the community is heavy, but the child is becoming more and more unable to carry it······"
"In order to shoulder this heavy weight and the expectations of the world, the child can't care about visiting the queen mother at all;"
"Not only the queen mother, but even the child's own heirs, and even the child himself, the child, have long been unable to take care of ······"
Speaking with a choked voice, Liu Qi did not forget to raise his hand and carefully wipe away the tears on his face, only that sad gaze could no longer fall on his mother, Empress Dowager Dou, who was also full of pathos.
Like a criminal who accepted his fate, kneeling in front of the Empress Dowager Dou, Liu Qi continued to tell the pain in his heart.
"Prince Wu, it was the child who killed him by mistake;"
"But the "Xu Min Chi Shan Ze Order", which made the Wu State more and more rich and powerful, and finally threatened the Zongmiao and Sheji, was issued by his father;
"And "Cutting the Domain" is also the edict of the father and the emperor, and the child had to implement it······"
"Now, the old thief of King Wu is ready to move, and the princes of the Qi family are eyeing him;"
"The child looks around, in the whole world, there is only one child, who can help the child a little······"
"Is the child willing to deceive this only brother?"
"Is a child a hard-hearted person who has to coax his younger brother or even his mother in order to achieve his goal?"
"-Obviously the biological mother who gave birth to the child!"
"Queen Mother, why can't you understand the child's suffering?!"
"Obviously she is the wife of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, why can't the queen mother focus on Zongmiao and Sheji!"
"Help the children, and shoulder the weight of the world together·········
In an almost heart-wrenching tone, the four words 'the weight of all equals' were uttered word by word, and Liu Qi, the son of heaven, could no longer control the sadness in his heart, and cried softly in front of his mother like a three-year-old child.
And on the royal couch, looking at her son like this, Empress Dowager Dou's tear-stained face was even more sad·······
"That's your own brother······"
"I was moved by the big position, but in the end I couldn't sit in the big position······"
"-The third child will die~~~"
In just three sentences, it was the Empress Dowager Dou who used all her strength to shout with the sound of a shout;
And when these three sentences came out of the bloody heart, they only caused Liu Qi, who was in grief, to shake his head slowly and bow his head in grief······
"If you don't do this, the child will die~~~"
"My Liu clan will die~~~"
"In this world, this temple and community will be catastrophic·······"
"Queen Mother's ·······"
"Queen Mother's ~~~~~~"
With this last hoarse wail, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, finally bowed his head in front of the Empress Dowager Dou, put his forehead on the floor at his mother's feet, and no longer suppressed his brother's grief, crying and wailing loudly.
Looking at the son who was already the son of the Han Dynasty, but at this moment he was kneeling at his feet, crying uncontrollably, Empress Dowager Dou finally closed her eyes in despair, raised her head, and let out a lament.
——This scene in front of him made the Empress Dowager of the Han Dynasty, Dou's heart, like a knife······
"That's it······"
"That's it·········"
"This imperial brother, the third child, don't do ······"
Forcibly endured the pain like the blunt knife stirring in his heart, squeezed out such a sentence, and saw the Empress Dowager Dou slowly stand up;
Spread on the ground, groping and picking up the dove staff that was thrown out by herself, the Empress Dowager Dou turned around sadly and looked at Liu Qi, the son of heaven, with a dull expression.
"Since this imperial brother was provoked by "Cutting the Domain", then don't cut this domain······"
"The emperor continues to command the world in Weiyang Palace, and my son King Liang will also continue to be in Suiyang and be his own King of Liang······"
"When the emperor has made up his mind, I will issue an edict and make the crown prince;"
"Who sits on the throne of the crown prince is also up to the emperor·········"
Saying these words in an incomparably vicissitudes of tone, Empress Dowager Dou turned sideways with dull eyes, took difficult steps, and walked in the direction of the apse.
In front of the imperial couch, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, continued to cry for a while before being helped up by the eunuch he brought.
"Your Majesty take care ······"
Helped Liu Qi up from the ground, and was about to say two words like 'don't be too sad', when the eunuch seemed to see some terrifying picture, and was suddenly stunned in place!
After repeatedly making sure that it was not his own dazzle, the old eunuch hurriedly lowered his head;
Even though he had seen a lot of strong winds and waves in the palace, the old eunuch at this moment was still trembling violently in horror······
——I saw that Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, stood up straight, the tears on both sides of his cheeks were not dry, and the expression on his face was no longer the slightest sorrow!
stretched out his hand nonchalantly, grabbed the handkerchief handed by the old eunuch, and wiped the tears from his face at will;
Looking gloomily at the direction of Empress Dowager Dou's departure, Liu Qicai turned around indifferently and walked in the direction of the palace gate.
Outside the palace gate, Liu Qi did not leave in a hurry, but deliberately stopped for a while as if he was waiting for someone.
After a while, sure enough, a black shadow that made Liu Qi feel so familiar appeared from an unknown corner and quickly came to Liu Qi's side.
"Your Majesty······"
"I decided on the previous incident."
"Let's do it as soon as possible."
The harsh command made the man in black who still didn't forget to hide half of his body in the dark for a moment!
When he reacted to the 'incident' that Liu Qi said, he saw that the man in black was also like the old eunuch who was just like Fang Cai, and his body trembled······
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty······"
"The eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven do not enter the Changle Palace, this ······"
"This is the rule set by Emperor Taizong Xiaowen himself······"
"If this matter gets out, won't Your Majesty ·········?"
The secret reminder did not shake Liu Qi's determination at all.
saw that the Son of Heaven turned around indifferently, looked at the man in black meaningfully, and looked around casually;
When the man in black knelt on the ground in horror, the deep voice of Liu Qi, the son of heaven, reached the ears of the man in black again.
"Just do it."
"I must let me know at any time: who the Queen Mother met and what she said;"
"And King Liang's side, keep an eye on me!"
"—don't say what you said or did;"
"What you eat, what you drink, which lady you sleep with, and what dreams you say, you have to present it word for word!"
The sudden fierce tone provoked the man in black to subconsciously shrink his neck, and hurriedly kowtowed on the spot!
It's just that at an angle that no one can see, the tooth sockets of the man in black are making a high-frequency impact sound······
"Your Majesty······"
Feeling the footsteps of Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, hurriedly raised his head and knelt forward;
"In the past, in the Changle Palace, there has never been an ear and eye ······"
"Especially by the side of the Queen Mother······"
In just two sentences, I saw that Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, frowned, and the man in black trembled again!
When I caught up with it, I subconsciously changed from 'I'm afraid it will take some time' to ······
"I don't know what Your Majesty wants, when will the minister ······?"
"Immediately!"
Without waiting for the man in black to speak, he saw that Liu Qi, the son of heaven, suddenly became angry!
After reacting, and seeing Liu Qi looking left and right without a trace, to make sure that within a range of fifty steps around him, there would not be any 'ears of the wall', Liu Qicai glanced at the man in black again.
"There are things that can be done, but you can't say ······"
"Don't let Fang Cai's rebellious words come out of my mouth for the second time······"
The meaningful sentence woke up, causing the man in black to break out in a cold sweat, and he only anxiously buckled his forehead on the stone bricks.
Not only did he stumble for a long time, but he felt that his head was knocked into paste, and the stone bricks in front of him were also dyed a little scarlet;
raised his head, but saw that the figure of Liu Qi, the son of heaven, had already appeared next to the imperial chariot under the long steps······
"It's broken!"
With a bad cry, the man in black got up from the ground and disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.
In today's Han family, the words of other people, the man in black can not listen.
But only the confession of Liu Qi, the son of heaven, the man in black, must be done without discount!
- Because of the years of getting along day and night, the man in black has long understood clearly: Liu Qi, the son of heaven, will never use any rhetorical techniques in his explanation to himself······
Today's 10,000 words are completed.
