Chapter 44: Rebellion Section 3: Despair

Xiao Hong felt extremely desperate at this time, he couldn't imagine that he was also poisoned, and after he calmed down, he didn't believe what Wu Shuyuan said, because he had no signs of poisoning, how could he just rely on Wu Shuyuan's few untrustworthy words to say that his life was not long?

"It's just nonsense, this king is standing here in a good manner, there is nothing at all, not to mention that the palace is heavily guarded, how can those who poison the people easily enter the palace?" Xiao Hong asked loudly. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Lord Wang, you don't believe what I said, if it is said by the person who poisoned it, do you believe it?" Wu Shuyuan was not in a hurry, but asked in a slow voice.

"As long as you call the person who poisoned him, and I ask him face to face, I will believe it. ”

"She's standing in front of you, why don't you ask?" Wu Shuyuan said coldly.

Xiao Hong took a step back in surprise, he couldn't believe what Wu Shuyuan said, she ------ she was actually the murderer that the imperial brother had been looking for.

"No way------ how can you poison your own son?" Xiao Hong asked tremblingly.

"To be free from his pain. "Wu Shuyuan sprinkled the pod in her hand on the ground," Since he was born, his life experience has plagued him, what scares me the most is that someone actually used him to blackmail me, forcing me to do what I don't want to do------ Lord, I have lived for others all my life, after marrying Xiao Baojuan, he doesn't do business every day, doesn't take care of political affairs, he knows that he does those things that are roosters and dogs, and he doesn't care much about me at all, because of him, I was forcibly put into the inner palace by Xiao Yan, and I don't have a good impression of him, but I was forced to follow him out of desperation; I was sent to the cold palace------ to whom did I tell the resentment of my life? The people I love the most in this world have left me one by one, what am I living for? I don't know myself------ if Zong'er dies, you can no longer use me to blackmail him, no more. ”

Xiao Hong couldn't imagine that the abolished concubine of the imperial brother in front of him actually saw through all her tricks, she used such an extreme method, that is, to destroy her decades of planning, he calculated for so many years, and he didn't expect to be ruined by her.

"What kind of poison did I get into?" Tell me quickly?" Xiao Hong asked angrily.

Wu Shuyuan laughed loudly: "The prince is in power, if you are poisoned, someone will naturally solve it for you, but your poison has been poisoned more than 30 years ago, how to solve it?"

"What do you mean by that? I was poisoned more than thirty years ago?" Xiao Hong asked in horror.

"Lord, you are poisoned by power, your poison of usurping the throne has been under the control of Emperor He as early as when you killed Emperor He------ you must have already begun to covet your imperial brother's throne at that time. ”

Xiao Hong snorted coldly: "You are really smart, but it's a pity that no matter how smart you are, what's the use, anyway, you will die soon." ”

The smile on Wu Shuyuan's face slowly faded, yes, on the holy decree that Xiao Hong came to send today, the emperor Xiao Yan has already made it very clear, Zong'er is dead, so what is the point of living in this world? The only thing she can do is to relieve her pain and follow her son.

"It's worth it to have the prince accompany our mother to die. Wu Shuyuan said in a low voice, "Pity my little uncle Baorong, who died in your hands at a young age, and also affected the lives of dozens of members of the queen and queen's family, and buried him with him------ but you can rest assured, I will make a decision myself, and I will send a killer to come without bothering the prince." ”

Xiao Hong gritted his teeth and said, "You can't die yet, you have to tell me what kind of poison I have." ”

Wu Shuyuan sighed lightly: "Lord Wang, after I die, you can go with peace of mind, the poison in you is a chronic poison, at the latest in half a year, you will bleed to death------ same as the poison in my comprehensive child, how he died, how you will die." ”

"You ------ you vicious woman!" Xiao Hong couldn't help but curse loudly.

"No matter how vicious I am, I can't compare to you people who kill people with knives, but it's a pity that I can only kill you alone------ if I have the ability, I will kill a few more!"

Xiao Hong was anxious to go back to find an antidote, he didn't care about the nonsense of the crazy woman in front of him, stomped his foot hard, turned around and hurriedly left the cold palace.

Wu Shuyuan sat alone in the courtyard, until after the sunset, she slowly returned to the house, the house was extremely cold, Wu Shuyuan untied the ribbon around her waist, and threw it hard to the beam, she tied the hanging ribbon in a dead knot, and stretched her head into the dead knot, she closed her eyes slightly, and went through her life in her heart, she can finally end her embarrassing life today, and no one in her ears will use her son to threaten this threat that, thinking of this, she showed a serene smile on her face,

She muttered, "I'm like this, I'm worthy of you, Brother Baorong------ After muttering to herself, she stepped on the small stool under her feet------

The night breeze blowing in outside the house still carried a heavy coolness, but Wu Shuyuan, who was hanging in the air, could no longer feel it------

In the early morning of the next day, in the meditation room in Tongtai Temple, Xiao Yan was speechless for a long time after hearing the news of Wu Shuyuan's death.

The ministers who were on the left and right were also silent, and no one dared to say a word at this time, and who dared to guess the emperor's thoughts at this time? Then Shen asked Lord Shen to tell a big truth, after returning from the imperial expedition to the north, then Lord Shen was demoted several levels in a row, and was demoted to the city gate division, and he was not worthy of official positions and was only idle in the division.

As soon as the officials in the room thought of Lord Shen Yue's situation, they all felt cold in their hearts, thinking that Lord Shen Yue was the person who contributed the most and contributed the most when the emperor was in trouble. But because of a son who is not his own at all, the emperor does not remember Lord Shen's past merits and demotes him to an official, so if he says a few more words because of Wu Shuyuan's death, wouldn't he be guilty of killing his head?

Xiao Yan was naturally prepared for Wu Shuyuan's death, and the moment he issued the holy decree, he knew that Wu Shuyuan was certain to die. It's just that after hearing the news of her hanging herself, he suddenly remembered the scene when the two were together in the past, Wu Shuyuan at that time, there was far less anger in her heart, and her attitude towards herself was also extremely gentle, that Zong'er was lively and cute, very likable, the most unexpected thing for him was that after he became a monk, Wu Shuyuan's temperament also changed greatly, and Wu Shuyuan, who could not get his favor, actually told Xiao Zong of his most private things, resulting in the death of the mother and son one after another today, Xiao Yan didn't expect that because of that thought, they would cut off their lives-------- now that she is dead, those rights and wrongs in the past, There is really no need to continue to delve into it, thinking of this, he raised his head and ordered: "Lord He, draft the holy decree for Lian." ”

He Chen didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly knelt down to accept the order. Xiao Yan was silent for a while before he spoke: "Nian Na Shuyuan has followed Lian for many years, although she has been in the cold palace in recent years, she has also kept her own sake, and Lian has allowed her to be buried as Shuyuan. ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers obey the order!" He Chen received the order in a low voice.

Xiao Yan looked around at the official kneeling down, he didn't see the sixth brother Xiao Hong, so he asked with concern, "Why didn't Lian see the six kings today?"

He Zheng, who was standing beside him, hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, the sixth prince is unwell today and cannot come to the temple to listen to the decree for the time being. ”

Xiao Yan didn't say anything more after hearing this, but just waved his hand and ordered the officials to retreat. After the officials retreated, Xiao Yan asked He Zheng in a low voice: "General He, how long does it take for Lian to return to the palace?"

He Zheng replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, there are still two months left before your personal expedition, and after two months, the emperor can return to the palace." ”

Xiao Yan didn't know why at this time, he really wanted to go back to the palace to see the harem concubines he had snubbed for many years, he had not been fortunate to them all these years, presumably the resentment in their hearts was no less than that of Wu Shuyuan. It's just that after returning to the palace, the most important problem he faced was not the women in the harem, but his princes, who had all grown up at this time, and they were all staring at his throne. In the early years, he originally wanted to set up his eldest son Xiao Tong as the crown prince, but because the rest of the princes, relying on the power of their mothers, regarded Xiao Tong, whose mother died early, as a thorn in their side, and often excluded his eldest brother, Xiao Yan often heard of it, but most of the time he was quiet, he just wanted to see how the eldest son of the emperor endured and kung fu? If it is a person who loses his mind as soon as he suffers a setback, then the country of this Liang is handed over to his hands, and those royal brothers join forces, and there is a great tendency to bring him down, Xiao Yan has watched the battle between the princes coldly over the years, he does not favor anyone and does not want anyone, for Xiao Tong's patience and the grievances he has endured, he sees it in his eyes, and he also understands in his heart that this country will eventually be left in Xiao Tong's hands, and he has to put these things in his heart for the time being, once others know about it, I don't know how much wind and waves will rise.

"Where is Fan Yu now?" Xiao Yan suddenly remembered the child who followed him to become a monk in Tongtai Temple.

"Back to the emperor, the abbot arranged for him to copy the scriptures in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. He Zheng replied.

Xiao Yan sighed lightly: "Spread the will of the union, let that Fan Yu come to see me." ”

He Zheng didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly sent someone to find that Fan Yu. Xiao Yan unfolded the "Diamond Sutra" sent by the abbot, according to the abbot, this scripture was copied by Nadharma himself, and every word was the authentic work of Bodhidharma. It's just that the Sanskrit of this book is copied, which makes Xiao Yan extremely headache, thinking that Fan Yu stayed with the patriarch during the time when the patriarch of Bodhidharma came to Tongtai Temple, and he must know a little about this Sanskrit.

That Fan Yu followed He Zheng and came to the outside of Xiao Yan's meditation room, waiting for Xiao Yan's summons. Fan Yu's heart went up and down, he didn't know what the emperor was going to ask when he saw him, and how to answer if he asked about his own things? He suddenly felt that he was a little bit of a godless, so he could only take one step at a time.

Xiao Yan ordered someone to bring Fan Yu up, he looked up at Fan Yu, who was a child a few years ago, now he has grown taller, his face is slightly thinner, and his face is no longer the kind of baby fat he had when he first met him. Xiao Yan didn't know why, when he saw this child, he suddenly remembered the dead Xiao Zong, and he coughed lightly: "Fan Yu, you come forward and get closer to Lian." ”

Fan Yu took a few steps forward when he heard it, but he stopped very measuredly, did not continue to walk forward, and kept a certain distance from Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan handed the scripture in his hand to him: "This is the scripture left by Patriarch Bodhidharma, I wonder if you can understand the Sanskrit?"

Fan Yu stretched out his hands, took the scroll of scriptures, opened it and looked at it carefully, and replied in a low voice: "If you go back to the emperor, these Sanskrit Ziming also know a little, and there are many places where you still need to consult the scripture copying masters in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion." ”

Xiao Yan said gently: "That couplet will allow you to take this scripture to the Scripture Pavilion, and together with all the masters, copy this scripture again. ”

"Ziming obeys!" Fan Yu hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"You ------ stand down. Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment and ordered.

Fan Yu had just stood up and wanted to leave, when Xiao Yan suddenly asked, "I heard that your eldest brother has returned from the north, Fan Yu, do you want to go home and see your eldest brother?"

Fan Yu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and at this time he suddenly understood what the emperor's real intention was in ordering him to come, and the emperor must be testing himself. At this time, he was very grateful to his eldest brother for coming to meet him a few days ago, and suppressed his inner desire to go home, if there was no persuasion from his eldest brother, when the emperor just asked this, he would have rushed out and said that he wanted to go home.

Fan Yu lowered his head and replied in a low voice: "Go back to the emperor, Ziming will not go home, Ziming will always accompany the emperor and become a monk in this temple." ”
