Chapter 203:-for-tat
After the loss of Concubine Wan, the first emperor was depressed all day long, and after more than a year, he contracted an illness and died. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info queen set up the little prince as the emperor, and she became the queen mother today. ”
Zhou Shaobai was emotionally moved when he heard this, shook his head and asked, "It's really embarrassing." ”
That Gonggong Xu ignored him, but suddenly squinted his eyes, looked at Mu Ningzhi carefully, and said in surprise: "Strange, why did our family realize that the more you look at it, the more you look like Concubine Wan back then! By the way, you still have that person's moves, what is the relationship between you and that person?"
Zhou Shaobai and Mu Ningzhi were stunned when they heard this, they didn't know who Gonggong Xu was talking about, but Gonggong Xu suddenly became frightened at this time, and his expression was extremely frightened, as if he had seen a ghost.
He shrank desperately into the corner, waved his hands desperately, and cried in a hoarse voice: "Don't ask me for your life! Don't look for me! I'll tell the truth, can't I tell the truth?"
Seeing that Father-in-law Xu suddenly looked like crazy, both of them were shocked, Mu Ningzhi just wanted to speak, Zhou Shaobai hurriedly said: "Wait, let him finish!"
"The Queen Mother! It's all the Queen Mother! She was jealous of the first emperor's favor for you, and it was the poisonous plan she came up with that hurt you! Don't look for me! It's all good things done by the Queen Mother and Chang Ning's slut who has nothing to do with me!" Xu Gonggong shouted hoarsely, and suddenly knelt down and kowtowed desperately to Mu Ningzhi, only to hit the ground with a "bang" of gold bricks, and his forehead was dripping with blood, but he didn't care, he just cried in fear.
Mu Ningzhi saw that blood was splashed on his forehead, and his skin was open, and he was very shocked to look at it, and couldn't help but say: "Don't kowtow anymore, just talk well!"
But that Gonggong Xu turned a deaf ear, and only tried his best to kowtow, as if the gold brick that hit the ground was not a human head made of flesh and blood, but a hammer that didn't know pain. Although he was now very weak, he had smashed the hard gold bricks to pieces.
Zhou Shaobai suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop Gonggong Xu sharply: "Stop, don't kowtow anymore!"
He pulled Father-in-law Xu up, but Father-in-law Xu suddenly rolled his eyes, foamed at the mouth, and suddenly collapsed to the ground, and his limbs began to twitch.
Zhou Shaobai hurriedly tested his pulse, only to feel that the pulse was very weak, almost like a ripple about to flatten, and couldn't help but say: "Oops!"
He hurriedly pushed the palace blood to Gonggong Xu, trying to pull this hateful and poor old eunuch back from the palace of the king of Hades, but after working for a long time, Gonggong Xu still closed his eyes and kicked his legs, and he was exhausted, and his life was whimpered.
This old eunuch went through two dynasties, stepping on the corpses and climbing upwards, until he won the trust of the queen mother, and he was in charge of the prison government for many years, and his hands were stained with countless blood.
Zhou Shaobai sighed secretly in his heart, shook his head and said: "I have tried my best to save you, but the king of Hades ordered people to die for the third watch, who dares to keep people until the fifth watch? I hope that after you are reincarnated, you will be a good person in the next life. ”
The two looked at Father-in-law Xu's gradually stiffened body and were speechless for a while.
Zhou Shaobai peeked at Mu Ningzhi, only to see that her eyes had been staring at the ground, and suddenly opened her lips lightly and said, "What is that?"
He looked at it as he said, and saw a small porcelain vase on the ground.
Zhou Shaobai and Mu Ningzhi squatted down to take a look, only to see that the porcelain bottle was labeled with a red label, with the words "Chiyuan Dan" written on it, and the bottom of the small porcelain bottle was burned with four characters.
The two glanced at each other, before Father-in-law Xu kowtowed, there was no porcelain vase on the ground, it seemed that it was when Fang Cai kowtowed fiercely, and the porcelain vase fell out of his clothes.
Zhou Shaobai squatted down, carefully examined Gonggong Xu's body, looked at the porcelain vase again, and said: "Gonggong Xu died of Neidan exhaustion and excessive blood loss, not from poison. It's just a good one, why did he have a depletion?"
Mu Ningzhi suddenly remembered the extraordinary bravery of Gonggong Xu last night, and hurriedly said: "Don't you think he was much more powerful last night than usual? I fought against him during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and he was not my opponent at all. Last night, when I was fighting, I wasn't as good as usual, but he was many times stronger than usual. ”
Zhou Shaobai nodded and said, "I also noticed that the jade girl also said the same thing." So ......"
He suddenly stretched out his hand to pick up the small porcelain vase and said, "The skyrocketing rise of Gonggong Xu's Inner Dan, as well as the subsequent decline, are inseparable from this Chiyuan Dan. It seems that there are still many secrets between Qixiashan and the Queen Mother's party. ”
Zhou Shaobai shook his head, put away the small porcelain vase, and said to Mu Ningzhi: "Gonggong Xu has said so much, what I care about most is the last few words he said. ”
"He regarded me as a concubine who came to ask for his life. Could it be that my appearance is so similar to that of Concubine Wan back then?" Mu Ningzhi couldn't help but touch his cheek, "However, whether it is the emperor or Gonggong Xu, they all said that Concubine Wan and the baby girl back then are long gone, how can I have anything to do with them......"
Thinking that his life experience was so confusing, Mu Ningzhi couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, just like this decaying and desolate palace.
Zhou Shaobai saw that her face was different, and hurriedly comforted: "It is not easy to get from a piece of jade to the point where it is now. As long as the investigation continues, there will be a time when the clouds will be cleared. ”
Mu Ningzhi listened to it and sighed in his heart: Why can his words make my heart dissipate and feel very relieved?
She looked at this gloomy luxurious palace again, and couldn't help thinking: Concubine Wan, who lived here back then, I don't know if anyone ever gave her such a feeling?
In the Shoukang Palace, the Queen Mother was lying on the bed, still carefully groomed, and she was obviously graceful and luxurious.
However, as long as you take a closer look, you can easily see that the original long hair that was nourished by various secret recipes and did not see half of the silver hair was already mottled in black and white, and it turned out that overnight, the Queen Mother turned white.
"The emperor has arrived!"
With a message, the emperor strode into the hall.
The Queen Mother turned a deaf ear and still reclined on the bed, as if she had not noticed the arrival of the emperor at all.
"Queen Mother, how can you see me and not even say hello?" the emperor smiled and walked closer, and someone had already brought a chair for him to sit down.
Hearing only the sound of "bang", the emperor shook off the folding fan, and under the sword eyebrows, two eagle-like sharp eyes looked directly at the queen mother, which seemed to be able to see people through.
The Queen Mother didn't look at the emperor either, the corners of her mouth didn't bend any arc, she just said lightly: "So far, the emperor and the mourning family, what else is there to say." The mourning family has long been in its last years, and in a moment, it may go to meet the first emperor. It's just that I don't know how he will count the mourning family when he sees what the emperor has done. ”
The face of the eunuch beside the emperor changed, but the emperor burst out laughing.
He laughed for a long time, laughing so heartily that he couldn't help but pat his thigh again and again, as if he had heard an extremely funny joke.
Finally, he was tired of laughing, stopped, put away the folding fan, held it tightly, and said with a smile: "The queen mother still has the face to see the first emperor?" )
