Chapter 56: Russell (33)
But the emperor said that this was an extremely weighty move.
He didn't want Yuqing to resent Concubine Wuxian, but he wanted to arouse Yuqing's hatred for him. And the dancing concubine is just one of the mediums.
He wanted to tell Yuqing through the mouth of Concubine Wuxian that the real killer of Yunhe was him himself. He wants to arouse Yuqing's anger, and even, at all costs, wants Yuqing to make a big mistake.
Because only in this way did he have an excuse to abolish the queen and send Yuqing out of the palace.
In fact, I know that the emperor has no need to explain these things to me, he is an emperor. However, he now informed me of his plan. To be honest, I just don't want to worry about it.
When I heard these words, my heart was extremely uncomfortable.
On the road of guarding the country and protecting Yuqing, although many people have been sacrificed. But among them, he is the one who pays the most.
……
The rumors in the harem really entered Yuqing's ears, and on this day, Kunning Palace sent someone to invite me over.
I put down everything I was doing and came to Kunning Palace as fast as I could. After entering the hall, I didn't have the courage to look at Yuqing more. just chose to kneel down with a puff and kowtow to Yuqing heavily.
"What are you doing here?" Yuqing frowned slightly and asked.
- Qing'er, I'm sorry.
I moved my lips.
Yuqing was slightly stunned when she heard this. Suddenly, his eyes turned red and he cried, "What's worth it, I'm sorry?" In the end, it's all a child's life! ”
My body shook involuntarily:
- Qing'er, do you blame me?
"I don't blame you...... I only blame myself for not being able to find out what was wrong with my child early. It's just me who blames myself for not being able to take on the responsibilities of a mother. ”
- Yunhe ...... I've done my best.
Qing'er, I hope you really don't blame me. Even if you know the truth in the future, and know that all the pain you are suffering now, it is because I hide it from you...... I hope you don't blame me.
Everything I do is for your own good.
"I know," Yuqing nodded, "How much you love this child, I know better than anyone else, you won't die for him." ”
I listened and sighed:
- I didn't mean to put sleeping pills on you, I just ......
"I know" Before I could finish what I wanted to say with my mouth, Yuqing interrupted me, "Brother Russell, thank you." ”
A word of thanks, for some reason, really made my heart panic.
It's just that the pain of being clogged with something in my heart hasn't lasted long. Yuqing took out three delicate bottles and explained the reason for inviting me to come this time.
And sure enough...... Doubted......
I took the three bottles, opened the two silver bottles and smelled them. It wasn't until I found that there was no problem that I started to look at the golden bottle.
This golden bottle is the most familiar to me. Because the poison was put into it with my own hands. Now let me be a thief and shout to catch a thief, although I feel sarcastic in my heart, but in the face of Yuqing, I can't have any drastic performance.
It's just that the whole person gradually became serious. even turned self-irony into anger.
"What's wrong?" Yuqing asked tremblingly.
I listened and looked up at her, my eyes full of affirmation.
Although I didn't speak, I didn't even nod, but with the firmness in my eyes, Yuqing could clearly understand what I meant.
I saw that her originally straight body softened in an instant. The whole person was paralyzed on the phoenix chair, and his expression was gloomy, "These three are medicine bottles containing trauma medicine. The silver two-handed Yunyan and the golden one used by Nian Yi are Yunhe. ”
Yuqing said it so obviously, I don't need to ask more. just held the golden bottle in his hand tightly and slowly wrote four words: poison enters from the skin.
The thing was given by Concubine Wuxian, and the poison entered from the skin, and the murderer was obvious.
……
In front of me, Yuqing sent someone to Wuxian Concubine Niangniang to spread the word, saying that she was going to step on the snow and enjoy the plum blossoms. And I know that my mission is temporarily accomplished.
After coming out of Kunning Palace, I didn't go back to the Imperial Hospital, but went straight to the imperial study and explained to the emperor what happened today. Subsequently, he left the palace and returned to Luofu.
"Why did you come back so early today?" Qiaohui was teaching her children how to write, and she was very happy to see me come back.
I smiled softly at her and didn't say anything. I just touched the children's heads and went back to the study alone.
I sat alone at my desk, and the helplessness in my heart was exactly the same as when my sister lost the fetus in her womb.
Just thinking about it, when I first learned that my sister had a miscarriage, I couldn't understand the pain she went through. Now that Yuqing has "lost her beloved son", I can't comfort her and tell her the truth.
……
After spending some time in the study, I ordered food to be prepared for me under the pretext that I was hungry. Then, taking advantage of Qiaohui's time to play with the children, he secretly opened the door of the secret room.
After the effect of the fake death pill had passed, Yunhe had already woken up. However, due to the excessive medication of the body during this time, it is very weak.
At this moment, he was sitting on the table in the center of the secret room, holding a copy of "Zizhi Tongjian" and reading it with relish. I saw that he was not in good health, and he was so studious, and my heart was happy and at the same time I couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
So, carefully placing the food plate in front of him, she gently snatched the book from his hand.
Yun He, who was fascinated by learning, saw that there was no book in his hand, and then he came back to his senses in a trance. Seeing that it was me, he grinned, "Uncle Russell, you're back." ”
I nodded, pointed to the delicious food on the plate, and motioned for him to eat it quickly.
"Uncle Russell, how long is He'er going to stay here?" Yunhe pulled the food in front of him and asked as he ate.
I didn't know how to reply to him, so I tried to answer him with a smile.
However, Yunhe has been bored here for several days, so naturally it is not so easy to get rid of, "Uncle Russell, you said that you would let me out when I got better." Now that I'm almost in good shape, you can't keep me locked up, can you? ”
When I saw him like this, I couldn't help but shake my head. Then, pull out the pen and paper:
- You are still weak and need to recuperate.
"I eat well and sleep well now......"
- I'm a physician and an uncle, you have to listen to me.
"Uncle Russell...... I read the queen mother and my younger siblings......"
- You raise it for another half a month, and when your body is almost better, Uncle Russell will tell you everything.
I'm soft-hearted, and I can't listen to others being coquettish. In particular, the person who coquettished me was the crane who had always been as cold as frost. So, I had to find a way to delay, and one day at a time.
Sure enough, Yunhe is a sensible child. After hearing me say this, he only said yes, and then hung his head to eat, and asked no more questions.
I saw with my own eyes that he was well fed, and I checked his pulse and told him to take medicine. Then, he left the secret room.
Alas......
It was the emperor's decision to arrange Yunhe in Luofu.
It's just because, after my Luo family is down, it's not as good as before. Later, I was left behind, but I was just a doctor. Now sitting at the top, he is only the head in charge of the Tai Hospital. Roche, there is no longer the scenery of the year. So there are not many people who come to visit, and it is quiet enough.
In addition, my father once dug a secret room in the study and set up countless mechanisms. Whether it is imprisoning Yunhe or fighting against foreign enemies, it is a good choice. Luofu is also a safe place for Yunhe.
So when the emperor told me that he wanted to drop the cloud crane and place it in Luofu, I didn't refuse. After all, Yunhe's body is still poisonous, and I have to take care of it by my side.
What's more, it is not suitable for him to leave the capital at this moment.
The emperor said that the eldest prince would definitely not believe that Yunhe would die so easily. Therefore, in the few months when Yunhe was "dead", he would definitely send people to guard the city gate. If you act rashly at this time, you will only lose all your previous achievements.
I think it makes sense, so I cooperate with the emperor's arrangement even more closely.
It's just that Yunhe, a child, has been smart since he was a child and followed Yuqing. So fool around...... It's so hard!
……
When I entered the palace early the next morning, I got the news.
said that Yuqing's assassination of the emperor caused trouble to the Ouyang family. All of a sudden, after becoming a sin, he was put in prison.
I know that soon, the emperor will issue a decree to depose the queen. Everything is planned.
As long as Yuqing leaves the capital, everything will be much easier.
……
Sure enough, the holy decree after Yuqing's abolition soon came down.
Although she assassinated the emperor and killed the Ouyang clan. But because the emperor tried his best to protect Yuqing, he saved her life.
……
On the day she and Nian remembered leaving the palace, the snow was flying.
I took Qiaohui and personally waited for Yuqing at the gate of the palace.
Qiaohui was very happy when she saw Yuqing and Nian Yi. After only a while, he mingled with Nian Yi. And Yuqing and I were silent, looking at each other, falling into each other's eyes.
It's good to come out.
No matter what her status is now, Mo is still the sister I need to protect with my life.
It is my responsibility to take care of you.
And also......
I'm sorry, Qing'er. You have today, after all, I didn't protect you. Therefore, you need to obey the emperor's orders and use such extreme means to protect you.
In fact, I know that no matter whether I succeed or fail in the end, I can't stand up to you after all.
It's done, I made you lose the last chance to be with your husband. If you lose, you will live in misunderstanding for the rest of your life.
……
Along the way, Yuqing and Qiaohui chatted very happily.
"What about the kids?"
"They're waiting for you at home."
"Are they still obedient?"
"The big ones are very naughty, but the small ones are very calm."
"Girl, it's time to be quieter."
"But boy, it's too active."
"It is a great blessing for children to be in pairs."
It's just that no matter how Qiaohui pleaded, Yuqing refused to follow us back to Luofu to live after all. Instead, he chose to take his child and returned to the once invincible General's Mansion.
Actually, about letting Yuqing go to Luofu to do it, I don't want to do it in my heart. After all, Yunhe is in the middle of the house, and I'm worried that something will happen.
It's just that Qiaohui was afraid that Yuqing would suffer, so she insisted again and again. I had no choice but to nod my head in agreement.
Anyway, I know that Yuqing will not defect to me no matter what.
First, because she is proud and unwilling to trouble others. Second, I was afraid that the people in the court would laugh at me.
……
When he entered the palace the next day to check the emperor's pulse, the emperor was already getting weaker and weaker.
Looks like I'm going to have to work on some new drugs quickly. Otherwise, he really won't be far from death. We have worked hard for so long, and we will survive until the day when we will confront the eldest prince no matter what.
"I heard that you went to pick up Aqing yesterday, thank you for your hard work." He looked at me and said.
I shook my head slightly, in response to him.
"Where does she live? Are you okay? ”
Hearing this, I raised my head and moved my mouth:
- General's Mansion.
"It's okay......" the emperor nodded, "As long as you don't live in Luofu, you can live anywhere." She is so smart, if she lives in Luofu with you, I am afraid that she will already discover the truth before the day of confrontation between me and the eldest prince comes. ”
After that, he said, "However, now that she is out of the palace, she usually has to bother you to take care of her." When she left the palace, she didn't have silver taels on her, so you can help her more on the premise of not hurting her self-esteem. If it's not enough, I'll ask for it. ”
I nodded, in clarity.
Then, after thinking about it, he informed the emperor. said that Yuqing and Nian Yi don't even have a person around them now, so I don't know if I should arrange a few people to serve in the past.
As soon as these words came out, the emperor immediately responded, "With my understanding of Aqing, she will not stay in the capital for a long time." So at such times, the person you arrange she will not accept. ”
- That's ......
"I plan to find a reason to send Xiao Yunzi and Hua Rou Huajing out. At that time, you will answer them outside the palace, and after making them suffer, you will take them to the General's Mansion and arrange them to be by Aqing's side. After all, they are old people, no matter where A-Qing goes in the future, she will take them with her. ”
The emperor's voice fell, and Concubine Wuxian, who had been waiting beside him, suddenly opened her mouth, "The concubine knows a little about the people next to the queen, so it's better for the emperor to accept one for his own use."
Fair and loyal, not easy to impress. Hua Rou is cautious and not easy to start. And Huajing, although smart, is easy to be emotional. The emperor can make her our eyeliner for the sake of the queen's mother.
In this way, no matter where the queen mother goes, whether she is doing well or badly, we are all clear. In this way, the emperor does not have to worry. ”
"You have some truth in what you say, so let's do it," the emperor thought for a while and responded.
And I, listening to the words of the two of them, also felt that there was nothing wrong with it. Therefore, there was no objection.
In the silence, Concubine Wuxian called me again, "That's right, Imperial Doctor Luo." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now in your mansion, so you have to be very careful.
Mrs. Luo used to be the person next to the queen, and she accompanied the queen to experience life and death together, and her feelings were deep. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is known to Mrs. Luo, it is equivalent to being known by the Queen's mother. ”
I knew the scruples of Concubine Wuxian, so I looked at her firmly:
- Don't worry, I've been hiding Qiaohui's affairs from Yunhe to this day.
