Chapter 54: Russell (31)
I saw that Yuqing used my words to persuade her to block me, so I had to write this sentence with a clear conscience:
- Qing'er, this is not what it used to be, and many things should be treated differently.
The shoe is on the other foot......
"Huh...... What a different thing it used to be! I and Qing Cang have experienced life and death, and in his most difficult time, it was I Murong Yuqing who carried everything with a woman's weakest shoulders! ”
When Yuqing said these words, she was extremely unwilling.
In Yuqing's heart, she is the one who takes care of the emperor, she is the one who takes care of the children, and even at the critical moment, she is the one who turns the tide for the Tanglin Kingdom!
She thinks that not only has she done nothing wrong over the years, but she has fought side by side with the emperor and done her best! Even if there is really something different in the world, she shouldn't be like this now!
Left out in the cold, alienated, abandoned by those who were once closest to you.
I listened to all Yuqing's complaints, and for a moment I felt that everything I was doing was wrong. I hid it from her and deliberately fabricated so many false "facts", which simply made her more uncomfortable and heartbroken.
However, whenever I have this thought, I want to simply tell her what the emperor has done for her. In my mind, the king who was supposed to be alive and well, relying on life-sustaining pills at the moment, was struggling to survive, and was struggling to support himself.
He also has hardships and last resorts. But he is willing to wronged himself like this for Yuqing. I'd rather put myself in the position of a negative person, but also protect Yuqing thoughtfully.
I felt that I could not fail him in my life.
Even if......
He killed his father and Yuqing's sister, and I didn't have the home I had worked so hard to get.
- You don't make any mistakes, and all the starting points are for his good. But the emperor is a man after all, and your strength to turn the tide has relieved him of a temporary dilemma. However, it also made him look down on himself more and more......
"You mean the Meritorious Lord? What I did, not only did not make him proud, but also thinned his face? As a woman, I should be obedient in managing everything in the harem, right? ”
Yuqing looked at the words I wrote and felt ridiculous.
When she said these words, there was a lot of sarcasm and despair between her words, as if everything she had paid for had been swallowed by a dog.
- That's just my guess.
I have a clear conscience, and I should.
"Heh......"
Yuqing sneered, and the atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing.
I looked at her strong face, with a deep loneliness. Although he was extremely unbearable in his heart, he still followed the emperor's instructions and used a trick to retreat.
I generously admit that I have indeed avoided her for all this time. It's just that after I arrived at the palace to serve, I saw the emperor's heart more and more clearly.
I was talking serious nonsense and said the most hurtful words to provoke the relationship between her and the emperor.
I said that although the emperor still treats her on the surface, he reveals a very deliberate alienation in his bones. I even, in order to make her believe in me. began to shamelessly exonerate himself, began to talk about Qiaohui, and began to say such things as empathy.
The implication is just to let her understand that as a woman, she is still overstepping her authority. And the emperor, as an emperor, is protected by a woman, so naturally he will not feel good.
I know that such words are not fair to Yuqing. I also know that the emperor has never had these bastard thoughts in his heart. But what can I do? In order to allow them to centrifuge as a couple...... I didn't have a choice.
"I always thought that all my efforts were due to my love for him. He is a generation of kings, and I can sacrifice everything to be his helper. Unexpectedly, in the end, I became a burden on his face. ”
Obviously, Yuqing finally believed my words. also completely, fell into the trap of the emperor's love.
She was in great pain, and I felt guilty.
After a long, long time, I slowly wrote:
- Qing'er, it's me who can't stand you.
I'm sorry.
Someday, the true truth will come out. I hope you can forgive me for what I did today.
Yuqing raised her eyelids slightly, her expression was dull, "I'm sorry?" How can you not stop me! If it weren't for you to persuade me today, I'm afraid I would still be struggling with Qingcang's cold treatment. ”
Struggling......
These four words are very soft, and they lack to reveal helplessness and despair.
- Do you want to take the pulse?
I don't know how to continue this conversation...... Because my mission, it has been accomplished.
As long as she believed me, I would be worthy of my trip today.
"No need," Yuqing replied to me lightly, "I'm in good shape." ”
- Okay, I think you look good, you should be fine.
I'm so scared of such Yuqing!
The reason why she has such a sad face and bears such pain in her heart is because I have turned against others. So, I don't want to face her, I don't want to stay in Kunning Palace for a minute or a second.
……
After I repeatedly said I was sorry, we were silent with each other. To avoid embarrassment, I picked up the medicine box on the side and got up to leave.
However, after only two steps, Yuqing's voice came from behind him, "Brother Russell......"
She opened her mouth to call me, "Aside from it, it seems that the distance between me and you is getting farther and farther away. However, no matter how far we are, you are still the most trusted person in my life. ”
After that, she paused, and then continued, "I and you, I have the knowledge to draw sisters, and I have Qiaohui. We have common memories, we have common secrets, and we have people we miss together.
If you ask me what I still wish to this day, I think the last thing I want is for you to hide it. ”
- No matter how far apart we are, you are still the person I trust the most in my life.
- If you ask me what I wish to this day, the last thing I want is for you to conceal it.
I listened to Yuqing's words, but there was no response in the end. I just feel that my heart is being pulled and hurt.
I'm sorry, Qing'er.
The person you trust the most is me, and I don't deserve your trust.
You say, "Your wish in this life is not to be concealed by me." I'm afraid I won't be able to fulfill your wish.
Since I have accompanied the emperor to this point, there is no reason to stop.
……
On the way out of Kunning Palace, I watched the Forbidden City become more and more depressed. So, I can't help but feel that I am very ridiculous.
In the past, for Yuqing's happiness, in order to make her feel better. I tried my best to persuade her and tell her the emperor's heart for her from a man's point of view.
Now, it is still for Yuqing's henchmen, in order to make her live a stable life for the rest of her life. I lied desperately, instigated the relationship between her and the emperor, and told her the emperor's intentions for other women.
People are always changing, aren't they?
……
With the gradual passage of time, Yuqing's true fall from grace has finally come.
In stark contrast to Yuqing, it was the Wuxian Concubine Niangniang who once followed her.
Today's Wuxian Concubine Niangniang is full of grace and is a hot figure in the harem.
At first, I thought that the emperor deliberately favored Concubine Wuxian in order to completely hit Yuqing and make Yuqing die. Because only in this way, when it is time to leave, will she leave completely.
After all, anyone who gets the emperor's favor is not as good as Concubine Wuxian. Infinite Concubine Niangniang, that's the person around Yuqing.
But later, an accident happened, and I understood the real reason why the emperor favored Concubine Wuxian.
Concubine Wuxian treats Yuqing coldly, not really for status and glory. Instead, like me, put yourself in Yuqing's shoes.
It was at that moment that I really felt that Yuqing was actually a very rich person. She has ...... In addition to General Murong, Yu Sheng, and Zhihua's sister, she sincerely treats her lover, brother, and friends.
And this so-called accident was that Yun He, who was His Royal Highness the Prince, ordered someone to slap the harem concubines.
The emperor, who has always loved children, disregarded the love of father and son, and ordered the rod to scold Yunhe. After the rod is reprimanded...... What happened was beyond my expectations.
……
On this day, in the Temple of Nourishing Hearts.
I came to give the emperor a life-sustaining pill.
"This time, I'm going to trouble you again." He looked at me and said.
I raised my head slightly, waiting for him to continue.
"Is there a medicine in this world...... Can it poison people, seem to be terminally ill, and there is no cure, but it can minimize the damage to the body? If so, go find some immediately. ”
After that, he said, "It's best, you can apply it directly." Yunhe suffered so many boards, his skin must have been opened. I...... Someone should bring some medicine to this child. ”
My eyes widened suddenly, I dropped what I was holding and rushed straight to the emperor.
- What are you going to do with Yunhe?
I opened my mouth to ask, but I couldn't make a sound.
"I want Aqing to hate and poison me, and I want Yunhe to hate and poison me." The emperor understood the shape of my mouth, and closed his eyes in despair, "Imperial Doctor Luo, my time is running out." The effect of your life-sustaining pill is not as obvious as it was some time ago.
You once said that this life-sustaining medicine will not last long. Once the effect gradually decreases and the physical strength is much lower than before, it means that I have begun to reject this pill. ”
After saying that, he smiled bitterly again, "The person who A-Qing has been waiting for came to look for me a few days ago." I knew I couldn't fight him, so I made a pact with him to fight to the death.
At that time, I will let Orsie bury the gunpowder and die with him. Therefore, I must rush before that and send Ah Qing and the child out of the palace safely. One...... And no less. ”
After speaking, he turned his eyes to look at me who was angry, "Imperial Doctor Luo, hurry up and find medicine!" Let Yunhe poison, and then find a way to make him fake his death. Let's send Yunhe out first, so that I don't have to worry, and Ah Qing doesn't have to worry.
If my plan succeeds, I will perish with that man. Then you will take my holy decree and bring Yunhe back to the throne! If I am defeated, I am not afraid. Anyway, Ah Qing will be out of the palace at that time, and Yunhe will not be here.
All over the world, they can live freely. And as for my death...... Scold...... As long as their mother and son hate me very much, there is nothing to be sad about. ”
The anger in my body gradually dissipated in the emperor's words.
It turned out that he had calculated everything early. He knew that he was not the opponent of the eldest prince, so he had to die together. He knew that after doing so, Yuqing and the child would hate him for the rest of their lives. But in order to keep their mother and son alive, he never cared about all this.
He wants to defend the country, eradicate the thieves, and let his wife and children have no worries. However, I also want them to avoid the fear of their lives.
And I, from beginning to end, just had to do it.
I gradually withdrew my clenched fists and sighed. Then, he nodded weakly to the emperor.
That's it, that's it.
I don't have any other way.
……
When it comes to Yuqing and the child, I have always been very positive.
Therefore, the matter ordered by the emperor was quickly completed.
I'm curious, although Kunning Palace has fallen out of favor, it is impregnable. What method will the emperor use to poison Yunhe. Until...... The emperor instructed me to personally hand over the medicine to Concubine Wuxian.
I realized that the purpose of the original concubine was here.
In an instant, I felt that I was not alone.
yes, where is the loneliness?
Since I worked for the emperor, I have always been unable to sleep at night, and my heart is full of guilt for Yuqing. Now it seems that Concubine Wuxian is no different from me.
……
Concubine Wuxian did a very good job of the errand assigned by the emperor!
When the crane became ill, it was Laba.
When Kunning Palace invited me over, I pretended that everything had nothing to do with me.
I watched Yunhe lying on the bed with his eyes closed, his face as pale as paper, his eyes and lips black and purple, and he looked very strange. His breathing was weak, and to the naked eye, he looked like a dead man.
I know that as long as I give Yunhe an antidote, I will be fine, but in front of Yuqing, I still lock my brows deeply, probe my breath, and check my pulse.
I opened Yunhe's eyes, broke Yunhe's beak, and used a slender silver needle to pierce Yunhe's ten fingers and ten toes one by one. While I was doing the movements in my hands, I silently thought in my heart: He'er, don't blame your uncle, uncle is not a heart.
Until...... The dark green blood was squeezed out of Yunhe's body before he stopped.
"How's it going?" Yuqing asked me tremblingly.
I pretended to look very serious, and while taking out a jet-black pill from the medicine box, I forcibly stuffed it into Yunhe, and at the same time, I shook my head helplessly.
Yuqing saw me like this, and she couldn't support it anymore. One stumbled, and fell to the ground.
At this moment, I suddenly felt like a drama singing on stage.
Look at the extremely smart Yuqing, who was also fooled by me, she was stunned.
I shook my head, the meaning was very vague, and there was no clear answer. However, it gave Yuqing a fatal blow.
And the pill I just stuffed Yunhe into is an improved antidote with weak medicinal properties.
He is my nephew and Yuqing's child, how can I let him suffer so much.
