Chapter 221: The Determination to Die
Finally dealt with all the abrasions on the emperor's body, Wang Dequan found that the clothes behind his back were all soaked with cold sweat.
"The Emperor's ......"
Tang Shiliang, who followed the doctors to the Tai Hospital, walked a little messy: "Queen...... The queen mother is dying, and now she is in the hospital, shouting that she must see you before she dies. ”
The emperor gave Jiang Xinyue's hand to fix her hair, and after a long silence, he smiled at Jiang Xinyue: "Go to bed early tonight, don't wait for me." ”
Regardless of whether the queen can survive tonight, the emperor has to prepare many things in advance and discuss them with his henchmen.
Jiang Xinyue pressed the hem of the emperor's clothes with a tightly wrapped palm, and looked up at him pitifully: "Your Majesty, when the fire broke out today, the beam of the house should have been pressed on the concubine, it was the queen mother who saved the concubine, and she also gave the water-soaked handkerchief to the concubine, no matter what the queen mother did to the concubine before...... Concubines...... Forgive her. ”
As she spoke, tears already flowing: "So...... So the concubines have the courage to beg the emperor to give the mother the last bit of decency, okay? ”
The sick and weak beauty blinked her clear eyes, and Emperor Xuanwu bent down and kissed her on the tip of her nose: "I know, don't worry about these things, I know how to do it." ”
In the Tai Hospital, the wounds on her face had been bandaged, she knelt beside the queen's small bed, crying until the wounds were oozing blood, desperately trying to arouse the queen's desire to survive: "Queen Mother, look at it, the fifth prince is here!" The fifth prince is still so young, he can't live without his mother! Open your eyes and look at the Five Princes! ”
The fifth prince, who was already one and a half years old, was led by an elderly grandmother and staggered over.
He didn't know why the queen mother was lying here, but the queen mother's face was wounded, and her aunt's face was bleeding.
He knew that the queen mother was injured.
The fifth prince pursed his mouth and cried loudly: "Mother...... Mother...... Rise...... Rise...... Woowoo...... ......"
The queen's hand moved, and with great effort she opened her eyes, and she looked at the fifth prince and smiled weakly at him.
Then he looked at Fanyu: "Take good care of the five princes, and take care of the ...... Don't go against Concubine Xian, this palace has this fate today, it's all this palace...... It's the palace that doesn't know people clearly. Believe in people who shouldn't be believed, love people who shouldn't be loved, this palace ...... Confessed. ”
Fen Xiao lowered his head from crying, and was reluctant in his heart: "Niangniang, you survive, and the slave and maid will take care of the five princes with you." ”
Tears flowed down from the corners of the queen's eyes: "The palace is not done, you take the five princes to Hexi Palace to wait!" ”
She can always see her two sons in the five princes, and she sincerely hopes that the five princes can live a healthy and happy life.
"When the fifth prince grows up, don't teach him hatred...... Don't let him be provoked, thinking that it was Concubine Xian who killed this palace. The main palace is only ...... As long as he's alive and well, you know? ”
She knew that she was loyal to herself, and she was afraid that she would be unwilling, and she would use the five princes to avenge herself in the future, and endure the pain: "Even if it is...... Even if you want to take revenge, the enemy of this palace is also Concubine De, and it is she who makes this palace lose the opportunity to be a mother, and there are many ...... The only thing this palace hates is her. ”
He cried so much that he was about to faint, and nodded again and again while holding the five princes: "Queen Mother, the slave will take care of the five princes, and the slave will not let anyone harm him." ”
This is the last thought of her master in this world, and she will never let her master down.
Not only was the queen hopeless, but she also rejected the doctors' plan to renew her life and drove all the doctors out.
She was showing the Emperor her determination to die in a resolute way.
The lights in the hospital were dim, and the pharmacy where the queen was located was empty.
Under the flickering lamplight, the queen lay quietly on the bamboo bed, as if she had died.
But when Emperor Xuanwu walked to the side of the bamboo bed, she was aware of it and opened her eyes.
The horrible face had been wrapped in silk, revealing only half of the face intact.
The emperor was silent and didn't speak, but the queen smiled softly: "The concubine is about to die, the husband and wife have been married for more than ten years, and the emperor doesn't have anything to say to the concubine in the end?" ”
Emperor Xuanwu raised his hand, arranged her newly changed clothes, and combed her messy hair with his fingers, but from beginning to end, he didn't say a word.
The queen understood his silence, looked at the emperor's gaze, gentle and reluctant: "Your Majesty, the concubines have been in the palace for fifteen years, and have given birth to the first prince and the second prince for you, but they may not want to be royals, so they gave up their concubines early, and now the concubines are going to look for them......"
She couldn't say any more, and choked up: "Your Majesty, the concubine only wishes you a healthy body, a long life, and a happy life with your beloved." ”
Those who are about to die are also good in their words.
The emperor took a deep breath and held her hand: "Don't say so much, why don't you let the imperial doctor continue your life?" ”
Isn't it good to live longer?
The queen shook her head: "The concubine doesn't want to look at this face in the mirror every day, and the concubine is afraid that she will die with resentment towards this palace." ”
How long can you live?
Three days? Five days?
Or three months, five months?
What's the point?
It is better to take advantage of the emperor's guilt and use his death to fight for the greatest interests of the five princes and the virtuous concubine.
"The concubine has strictly abided by the rules and responsibilities of being a queen in this life, and has never embarrassed the emperor, the concubine can marry you in this life and become your queen, and the concubine has never regretted it. Can be a concubine...... There is only one thing for concubines, and they regret not being ...... at the beginning."
The emperor looked at her: "Is it for the fifth prince?" ”
The queen nodded with tears: "The concubine shouldn't go to the mother to keep the son, take away the fifth prince from Lan Cainu, he is still so young and has no mother, the concubine ...... The concubine begged the emperor...... Is it okay to ask the emperor to let Concubine Xian raise the five princes? ”
She used her best strength to hold the emperor's hand, and the half of her intact face was already covered with tears: "In this harem, only Concubine Xian is the one who really loves her, and only she will really be good to the five princes, the emperor...... The concubine can hand over the evidence of the Zhu family's intention to rebel in Chang'an, and only ask the emperor to agree to the only request of the concubine. ”
The Zhu family intended to rebel, and this news exploded in the heart of Emperor Xuanwu like a thunderclap on the ground.
He knew that the Zhu family had always been unruly and did not listen to the dispatch of the imperial court, but they could always find a suitable reason to prevaricate the emperor, so the emperor did not have a confrontation with them head-on.
He never knew that the Zhu family not only wanted to be the head snake of Chang'an, but also wanted to be the lord of the world.
The queen didn't have the heart to explain why the Zhu family could hide from the world and avoid the impenetrable surveillance of the imperial court to plot a rebellion.
But she is the daughter of the Zhu family, and she has solid evidence in her hand, and it is impossible for the emperor not to want it.
