Chapter 48: The Death of the Envoy
After hearing this, Concubine Hua got up from the queen's bed and turned her back. smiled coldly, this smile contained her disappointment in Dongshengguo, more of her dissatisfaction with the government, and some irony.
Since Emperor Wu Wei ascended the throne, he killed ministers and brutalized Zhongliang. Every day, the wine and talk, singing and dancing are leveled in the palace. Ignoring the government not only caused the people in the world to ignore it, but also increased the taxes of the people. Large-scale construction works, labor and money.
Dongsheng has suffered natural disasters for many years, and the people are already miserable. He is the king of a nation. Not only did they not sympathize with the people, but they also brought them darkness that they could not see their fingers, so that they could not survive day and night, and they would not have enough to eat.
Such a faint monarch, how can a tyrant not make the people in the world feel cold, and how can he not let the world be in chaos, and now Guo Qiuyue is deeply favored by Emperor Wuwei. The national teacher has begun to install henchmen above the court, and there are signs of seizing power and hegemony.
Xiangguo, who has been loyal to His Majesty all his life, loyal to Dongsheng Country, and has made great contributions to Dongsheng Country, has been mutilated. Guo Qiuyue has extended his poisonous hand to the dragon in the queen's belly, if they let them control the military power again, then the world will suffer.
Guo Qiuyue was jealous of the queen Han Xueruo, and what scared her the most was not the queen's identity in the palace, but the queen's father, General Han Zhenbei, who was really jealous. Because of such a background, Guo Qiuyue did not dare to poison the queen.
If Guo Qiuyue cultivates henchmen in the palace in the future, he will then grasp the military power. If she had no fears, would the queen still be able to compete with her? Concubine Hua had already seen these truths clearly. So she didn't think that this time the Queen Mother decided to kill the envoy of the Western Regions to establish the majesty of the Eastern Sheng Kingdom.
Although the price is not hesitant to fight, if His Majesty sends He Bin to the northwest frontier, He Bin once again grasps the military power, the queen of the north and the south can have half of the military strength of the Dongsheng Kingdom, if the future is unpredictable, it is really as Concubine Hua said, rebel.
The queen did not agree with this, although Her Majesty was mediocre, she could not let herself or her father bear the infamy of being a thief. They are a Korean-style family, full of loyalty, how can they do such a rebellious thing.
Seeing that the queen had been hesitating, Concubine Hua was obviously a little anxious, and hurriedly said: "Sister, what are you hesitating about? Now that Dongsheng Kingdom is no longer the Dongsheng Kingdom before, we must plan for the future in advance in order to protect ourselves." ”
"Guo Qiuyue can attack the dragon in her sister's womb, and when she finds the opportunity in the future, she will naturally not let go of her sister. Since the Queen Mother did not hesitate to fight with the Turkish Kingdom, we should be opportunistic and consolidate our power. ”
"Sister, don't hesitate any longer, if Guo Qiuyue successfully gives birth to a dragon son, she will definitely become the prince in the future, what qualifications do we have to fight with Guo Qiuyue at that time, with Guo Qiuyue's means, we only have a dead end. Sister, don't you understand this truth?"
Although the queen agrees with what Concubine Hua said, she still doesn't want to be a traitor to Dongsheng Kingdom, even if she is brutalized by Guo Qiuyue in the future, she must remain innocent. They are a Guo family, and they can't let the people of the world scold them as rebellious ministers and thieves. ruined the reputation of her Guo family's loyalty.
So the queen said: "Sister, my sister will never betray Dongsheng Kingdom and His Majesty in this life, let alone use my father to collude with He Bin to rebel, my sister should not persuade my sister anymore." ”
Listening to the queen's words, Concubine Hua became even more anxious. Her anxiety was more of a helplessness for the queen's obsessive mentality, seeing that the queen was determined to do this, Concubine Hua was anxious, and reluctantly sat back on the queen's bedside.
With a look of helplessness, he said: "Sister, why do you think so much, the old ministers of the four dynasties of Xiangguo, for the immortal achievements of Dongsheng State." Follow the ancestral emperor and fight in the south and the north. What kind of martyr was he in his life? What happened to him? Didn't His Majesty gouge out his eyes, pierce his ears, and cut off his tongue because of his advice?"
"Like this faint king, why should we be loyal to him all our lives? Sooner or later, our fate will be like Xiangguo, who was brutally poisoned by Guo Qiuyue. Maybe Guo Qiuyue has already started to plan how to deal with us. ”
"We must not hesitate at this time, if we don't strike first, what will we do to fight Guo Qiuyue in the future? My sister once said that it is better to strike first and find an opportunity to get rid of the dragon in Guo Qiuyue's belly, but my sister is unwilling to do this because of her kindness, and as a result? Guo Qiuyue poisoned the dragon in her sister's belly. ”
"Sister, don't be so stubborn anymore, taking advantage of the Queen Mother's decision to kill the envoy of the Western Regions this time to establish the majesty of the Dongsheng Kingdom, we must find a way to join forces with General He Bin to consolidate our power, and we can also protect everything in the future. ”
The queen still shook her head and said, "Sister, don't say anything more about this matter, I have made up my mind." Guo Qiuyue has done a lot of evil, as long as we master her handle, we can naturally eradicate it. To do such a rebellious thing, this palace can't do it, let alone a father. ”
Concubine Hua still wanted to say something, but as soon as she opened her mouth, the queen stretched out her hand, signaling that she didn't have to say much: "Sister, this palace is tired." Sister, let's go back to the palace first!"
Concubine Hua saw that the queen was hard-hearted and unwilling to do this, so she finally shook her head helplessly, got up and said: "Since this is the case, my sister will not bother my sister, my sister is good at cultivating her body, my sister will come to visit my sister another day, and my sister will retire." ”
After that, Concubine Hua left Qingning Palace with some loss, and after the Queen Mother returned to Jianing Palace, the first thing she did was to arrest the envoy from the Western Regions, and after the envoy from the Western Regions was taken to the Queen Mother's bedroom, she looked ignorant. Kneeling down with His Royal Highness, he said, "I don't know what the Queen Mother's intention is to arrest the foreign ministers here today?
The Queen Mother played with a string of Buddhist beads in her hand and sat on the top of the main hall. There was a murderous aura in his eyes, and he said unhappily: "Have you paid tribute to Your Majesty with grapes?
Upon hearing this, the messenger looked innocent. Although it is true that the grapes are his tribute, how can there be five elements scattered among these grapes, and he doesn't know that the queen is pregnant, let alone that these grape queens have eaten them. Even if she eats it, it will not harm her body, how can it cause her to miscarry.
So he was a little wronged: "Queen Mother, how can there be five elements scattered in the grapes that the foreign minister paid tribute to His Majesty, and how could the foreign minister poison the dragon in the queen's belly, there must be a misunderstanding." Please also ask the Queen Mother to investigate and return the foreign minister's innocence!"
The Queen Mother smiled coldly, and continued to play with the string of Buddhist beads in her hand and said: "Misunderstanding? The imperial doctor personally verified that the queen had a miscarriage, which was indeed caused by eating the grapes you paid tribute to, could it be that you suspect that our imperial doctor of Dongsheng Kingdom is not proficient in medical skills, and laugh at me Dongsheng Kingdom is incompetent?"
The envoy of the Western Regions hurriedly kowtowed and said: "The foreign minister does not dare, the foreign minister should be ordered by the king of the earthfang country to pay tribute grapes, and he has no intention of harming the queen." The king hopes that the foreign ministers can ease the friendship with the Dongsheng Kingdom here, how can they do anything harmful to the Dongsheng Kingdom?"
"There must be some misunderstanding in this matter, and I ask the Queen Mother to investigate this matter and return the foreign minister to a clean slate. Dongsheng is full of talents, and the ministers believe that the queen's miscarriage will definitely be able to find out. The foreign minister was also deeply saddened by the queen's miscarriage, and the queen mother's incident was definitely not done by the foreign minister, and the foreign minister was wronged. ”
The Queen Mother got up from the top of the main hall, put the Buddha beads on several cases, waved her cuffs, and stared at the envoy from the Western Regions kneeling under Her Highness very unfriendly: "Hmph! My Dongsheng Kingdom is indeed full of talents, and there is no doubt that the imperial doctors of my Dongsheng Kingdom are exquisite. He has no grievances with you, so how can he frame you? Could it be that the old man wants to frame you?"
After hearing this, the envoy of the Western Regions hurriedly said: "The foreign minister does not dare to doubt the medical skills of the imperial doctor of Dongsheng Kingdom, and he does not dare to suspect that the queen mother has the intention of harming the foreign minister, but the foreign minister is really wronged in this matter, and the queen mother is asked to be the master of the foreign minister!"
The Queen Mother still has vicious eyes, she doesn't mean to let him go at all, and she doesn't want to prove his innocence, even if he is wronged, he has to be killed, only by killing him can he stop his tongue.
The queen's miscarriage, if General Han Zhenbei asks about it, it is good to explain it. Although Guo Qiuyue has done some vicious things, she is now pregnant with Emperor Wuwei's dragon species, the queen has miscarried, and this Dongsheng country cannot have a successor in the future, so the queen mother may know that this matter is likely to be related to Guo Qiuyue.
But she also decided to protect her, so she would be indomitable to the envoy of the Western Regions and put all the blame on him, first, to quell the queen's miscarriage, and second, to give an explanation to Han Zhenbei, the queen's father who has a heavy army. In the future, Han Zhenbei's displeasure can also be avoided.
In addition, the Turk State often harassed the Northwest Frontier and often sent envoys to negotiate peace. The Queen Mother has long been a little dissatisfied with this matter, how could she forgive the envoy of the Western Regions while taking advantage of this matter. Only by killing him, the Queen Mother thinks it is the most preferable.
So he said coldly: "The old body is discerning, so he will not believe any of your quibbles, you poisoned the old body Longsun, the crime is unforgivable." How can the old man spare you, come and drag this envoy out and cut off his head. Hung outside Chang'an City for three days. ”
As soon as the guards outside the door heard the queen mother's order, they hurriedly entered the hall with a knife and put the knife on the neck of the envoy from the Western Regions. ”
"The foreign minister asked the queen mother to think clearly about the consequences of killing the foreign minister before killing the foreign minister, and the two soldiers fought and did not kill the envoy, what prestige and credibility will the queen mother's move have in the future?
As soon as she heard this, the Queen Mother was extremely angry, no one in Dongsheng Country dared to speak to her like this, the Tufang Country was just an inconspicuous small country, and the Dongsheng Kingdom did not take it into account at all, and never sent troops to teach them a lesson, just because Emperor Wu Wei drank and had fun all day long and did not ask about state affairs.
The rebellion on the frontier, although some people want to admonish it. But they were all rejected by Emperor Wu Wei, and the ministers were afraid of Emperor Wu Wei's cruelty, so they had no choice but to avoid the affairs of the earthwork country.
But the Queen Mother is different, she is very concerned about the state affairs of Dongsheng Kingdom, and naturally she is very clear about the turmoil in the Northwest Frontier of the Tufang Kingdom. If he hadn't killed the envoy of the Turkato Kingdom this time, how could he have attracted the attention of Emperor Wu Wei.
Only by killing him, the earthwork country will do more excessively, if it really leads troops to attack, the million-strong army of the Dongsheng country can be leveled in an instant, maybe the territory of the Dongsheng country will be wide again, which is also the first great achievement that can be written into the annals of history since Emperor Wu Wei ascended the throne.
So the Queen Mother is not worried about this, on the contrary, this is what she has always wanted to see, no matter how you kill him, it will be harmless, which makes the Queen Mother bent on killing him.
Seeing the envoy of the Western Regions talking to herself, the Queen Mother immediately became furious, slapped a few cases, and stared at the envoy of the Western Regions viciously and said sharply: "What a bold man! You dare to threaten the old body? ”
After that, the Queen Mother turned around and waved her hand and said, "Come on, quickly drag him out and behead him!"
Immediately, the guards set up the envoy from the Western Regions, and the envoy from the Western Regions scolded angrily while struggling: "You old woman, old eyes are dizzy. Indiscriminately, kill the envoys at will, you will not die a good death, the king of our country will definitely not let you go, and you will be cut with a thousand knives. ”
The envoy of the Western Regions cursed while being dragged out of the hall by several guards, and soon a miserable scream came: "Ah~"
After Concubine Hua left Qingning Palace, the more the queen thought about it, the more inappropriate it became, and hurriedly dragged her weak body, regardless of Yulan's persuasion, she insisted on going to Jianing Palace to stop the Queen Mother from killing the envoys, and when she came to the outside of Jianing Palace, she was still a step too late. At this time, the envoy was already in a different place, and his head rolled to the side.
Seeing this scene, the queen's legs weakened. A little fainted, Yulan hurriedly supported Queen Han Xueruo, and said with a worried face: "Queen, queen, what's wrong with you?"
Then he shouted almost frantically: "Come on, come on." The queen fainted......"
