Extra: Shen Xiao Chapter 5
Before ascending the throne, the eldest brother who had been dormant for a long time entered the palace and caught Xichang off guard.
The West Factory narrowly won, but suffered a big blow.
Before Jiang Liu could deal with the Zhenguo Mansion, he was impeached by Cao Xiang Meng Dasima and the military generals of Wenchen and the military.
He was roasted on the fire. There was something indescribable in my heart.
It didn't take long for Cao's Meng's efforts to bear fruit, and Jiang Liu was sent to Dali Temple pending trial.
I dragged my tired body back to the dormitory and saw Jiang Qingyue lying naked on my dragon couch.
It's alive and fragrant, and it's pitiful.
Not indifferent.
I haven't seen me for half a year, but she can still make me lose control, mentally, including physically.
But her father used me and forced me.
She abandoned me and left me just because I wanted to be emperor.
These are secondary.
But the situation in the DPRK did not allow me to make any other choice.
It's not that being an emperor can make a final decision on everything, at least I, the emperor, can't for the time being.
-
It is clear that as long as Jiang leaves a word, Jiang Qingyue can understand my difficulties, and understand that I am not unwilling to save his father, but I am helpless.
But in that cramped cell, Jiang Liu said to me: "Since you are still at the mercy of others and have no ability to protect her, there is no need to explain to her. Send her out of Jinling, and let her die for you. ”
He had enough truth to convince me to shut up.
But I didn't want to accept my fate: "I will send her out of Jinling, but she doesn't have to die for me." ”
I believe that as long as she understands my plight, she will be willing to wait for me for at least two or three years, when I can protect her.
Jiang Liu glanced at me: "You don't have to. ”
He was reluctant to let his daughter wait for an unknown outcome for me, but I was not reconciled.
"You have also experienced what it is like to lose someone you love," I said sincerely, "I have listened to your step by step to this day, and I want to live with her for the rest of my life." ”
I don't expect much, that's all.
Jiang Liu was silent for a moment, and said: "If you are as favored as Concubine Chen, you will also end up being assassinated to death." If Qingyue's mother is still there, she doesn't want her to be trapped in the palace for the rest of her life. ”
I get it.
"You never intended to give her to me, did you?"
"Originally, I sincerely hoped that you two would be well," Jiang Liu said frankly, "The matter has come to this, so forget it." ”
He probably thought that if I was only the Nine Emperors or the Nine Kings, and he, as the Governor of Xichang, could protect his daughter for a lifetime, I would not dare to bear her.
But if I were the emperor and he became a prisoner, things would be different.
He and his wife were persecuted by the powerful, so much so that he rebelled against his daughter.
I jerked to my feet.
"You made me emperor!"
"Yes."
"In that case, then tell me, what have I come to this point for?"
I stared at him with tears in my eyes.
Jiang Liu said lightly: "In order to be the emperor." ”
The world thinks so, including her.
-
After Jiang Liu's loss of power, Meng Zhen was especially mean to Jiang Qingyue.
She actually stopped Jiang Qingyue in the palace, asked the two subordinates to kneel down according to Jiang Qingyue, and talked nonsense to Jiang Qingyue.
"The emperor said that he was disgusted when he saw you, disgusted when he remembered your identity, he used to be with you, but it was just an expedient measure, he never liked you at all."
Jiang Qingyue ridiculed her: "You mean, the emperor is a villain who is false and wronged? Do you dare to say that? ”
Meng Zhen raised her hand to hit her in the face.
Jiang Qingyue smiled: "Annoyed and angry? ”
Meng Zhen's hand finally fell, and she was pressed to death and slapped again and again.
Until her mouth was full of scarlet, Meng Zhen pointed to the scar on her forehead and said coldly: "If you dare to enter the palace to see the emperor again, I will not only leave you this scar, I will ruin your face." ”
And I could only let her in after late at night when the guard at the entrance of the dormitory had changed shifts.
I touched her red and swollen face, she avoided my hand and I hugged her tightly.
She was as motionless as a lump of wood, and I held it tightly.
"Don't be stupid again, don't enter the palace again, if you believe me, I'll go back and wait. Trust me, okay? ”
Don't beg me again.
There are some things that I can't promise in the moment.
With tears in her eyes, she asked me, "How can I believe it?" You asked Meng Zhen to accompany Wang in the imperial study, you gave her a bracelet, and everyone saw you holding her hand...... Anyone can do it, why is it her, her father wants my father's life? Why should you like her? ”
How could I possibly like her?
is clearly for Meng Zhen, it is a complete hypocrisy and wrongdoing.
I kissed the tears in the corners of her eyes, and my heart ached, "No one but you." ”
-
Meng Zhen didn't just do that.
She also forced Jiang Qingyue to die.
She said to Jiang Qingyue: "As long as you die, I will ask my father to let your father go." ”
Jiang Qingyue plunged headlong into the moat without hesitation.
-
After sending Jiang Qingyue to Gusu.
I made Meng Zhen a concubine and asked her to wait for me in the Qianyuan Palace.
In the dark of the night, when I couldn't see my fingers, I told her to lie on the dragon couch, and then let the death row prisoners who had been prepared for a long time go into battle.
In advance, I told this death row inmate not to have mercy.
Through a screen, I heard her whimpering and calling my name, crying and begging me to be gentle.
With a scream, I reflected on whether my actions had been a little more cruel.
Then I remembered how she slapped and humiliated Jiang Qingyue.
I thought of Jiang Qingyue being forced to jump into the moat, and crawled out of the river in embarrassment in front of everyone's eyes, soaking wet, and it was a cold winter moon.
I can't be soft.
I pretended to care for Meng Zhen and asked the imperial doctor to give her medicine, but I refused to give her a chance to recuperate.
On the second night, he was replaced by another more spiritual death row inmate.
It's just that I can't help but think, when the news of Meng Zhensheng's favor reaches Gusu, how will she think of me?
She had asked me to promise that she was alone, just as her father loved her mother.
At that time, when she heard my promise, she bent her eyebrows, the breeze blew, the crimson skirt floated, and her voice was like a silver bell: "A gentleman's words, the horse is difficult to chase!" ”
I laughed and high-fived her: "A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase." ”
-
I frequently summoned death row prisoners to "pamper" Meng Zhen, but the Meng family thought it was a pampering and was extremely proud.
I deliberately treated Cao Qing, the queen, coldly.
caused Meng Cao and the two clans to hate each other.
Their alliance slowly disintegrates and turns against each other.
-
I was so engrossed in state affairs that I didn't let myself be idle, so that I had less and less time to think of her.
I no longer ask how she is doing in Gusu.
Then, suddenly, she appeared in front of me again.
She knelt in front of me, lowered her eyebrows, and said that she had sent the poisoned stew pot to Weiyang Palace.
Scold.
I tried to speak, but I couldn't stop coughing.
She was not obedient at all, she didn't stay in Gusu honestly, Qin Gu was also abusive, and he didn't say a word about such a big thing.
That's it.
I didn't pursue it anymore, and went back to the Qianyuan Palace, but I couldn't settle down.
"Call that palace maid over." I ordered.
Here she comes.
I couldn't help but ask her, "Don't you have anything to say to me?" ”
She deliberately answered the question.
I suppressed the surging emotions in my heart and asked, "Even if you enter the palace by the queen's order, you are willing to be a concubine, are you or not?" ”
I want to hear her say yes.
Just like you were willing to marry me.
She said: "Serving the emperor is a blessing that slaves and maids dare not think about, how can they be reluctant? ”
Good, good.
She still pretended not to recognize me.
I thought about it for a while before I asked her to live in Huguang Pavilion.
When she was young, Concubine Chen treated her well, and she often followed Concubine Chen to watch plays in Huguang Pavilion.
This place to stay, she should love.
