Chapter 162 One Word of Love
In the court, because of the quarrel about the third prince, Duan Muqing vomited blood on the spot, and then he has been cultivating in the Qianqing Palace. After the imperial doctor was declared in, he has not left, and he stayed outside with a very worried look.
The sixth prince Duanmu Lingrui and others were stopped by Gude when they wanted to invite An, saying that no one was seen by the emperor's order. I had no choice but to go to the Zhuanghua Palace of the seventh prince to guard it.
The ministers were even more uneasy. Logically, now that the emperor is critically ill, he should have been supervised by the prince, but he didn't expect that the prince didn't even have a trace. Many people jointly wrote a letter to invite Duanmu Lingyu out. Duke Hou did not dare to toss around because of the matter of the eldest prince, but it did not prevent him from gloating about the disaster. He maliciously guessed in his heart that it was better to die directly if Duanmu Lingyu was in poor health. However, before he could act secretly, Prince Zhuang directly surrounded the Duke of Hou's mansion with his soldiers. Before he could resist, he plotted The reputation of rebellion was raided, and hundreds of people were sent to prison overnight. Hou Yi hurried into the palace to ask the queen for help. He was beaten out by a random stick at the gate of the palace and was directly dragged to the prison. Hearing this news, the ministers were really trembling.
Pearl Princess got the news and smashed all the gorgeous decorations in the Weiyang Palace. Finally, she never came out of the Yang Palace and ran to the door of Queen Hou Xinlan's palace, but she was told that the Empress had gone to the Qianqing Palace.
"Mother, did the Queen Mother really go to the Qianqing Palace?" Duanmu Mingzhu looked at Mother Hai, who was guarding at the gate of the palace, and asked coldly.
"To reply to the princess, the queen did go to the Qianqing Palace."
Duanmu Mingzhu was happy, and a smile flashed in her eyes: "Is the mother going to plead for the eldest brother?"
"I don't know when I go back to the palace master."
"You..." Looking at Mother Hai's unchanged face, Duanmu Mingzhu gritted her teeth. This old mother entered the palace with her mother and was very favored by her mother. Even if she wanted to look at her face, hum, but don't worry. When the royal brother comes out, she will naturally teach the old mother the rules, "Let's go, We will also go to Qianqing Palace.
Mother Hai looked at the back of Mingzhu's departure and sighed deeply. She couldn't help looking at the direction of Qianqing Palace. Her slightly cloudy eyes flashed with a trace of heartache. She had been with the queen for decades and saw that she had grown from a girl who had just entered the palace to an unparalleled mother of the country. She knew the hardships in it clearly. Houxian Duanfang is indeed the second choice of the lord of the harem, but she is not cruel enough, not cruel enough to others, and not cruel enough to herself. Entering the palace wall of these four rooms, you can have everything. The only thing that can't be true. Within the high wall of red bricks and green tiles, the most unbearable thing is true feelings...
The news that the queen was summoned to the Qianqing Palace was soon spread. Duanmu Lingrui was shocked and hurriedly pushed the door and entered Zhuanghua Palace: "Seventh brother, you..." Seeing the scene in the hall, he was stunned and saw that Duanmu Lingyu had tidied his clothes and was pressing the corner of the quilt for Mu Qingya.
Hearing someone come in, Duanmu Lingyu turned around and said, "Brother Six."
"Seventh brother, how are you?"
Duanmu Lingyu gently raised the corners of his lips and raised a temperature-less arc on his lips: "Naturally good!" As a man, he was not even protected by his loved ones at the most critical moment. No one knew that at that moment, his heart was torn and painful, but no matter how painful he was, he could not go with Qingya. He was not only love, but also righteousness, and the whole Yuhan! He can't leave the whole country!
Qingya, without your company, the huge country is very lonely...
Standing in front of the gate of the Qianqing Palace, the prince's clothes were particularly conspicuous. The guards and palace people knelt on the ground and shouted that the prince was a thousand years old. Duanmu Lingyu slowly walked up the steps, and a clear footstep was not heavy but inexplicably pressed people to look up.
"I have met His Royal Highness." Good bowed and saluted.
"Gu General Manager, I want to see my father. Please report it."
Goode bowed his head: "To the prince, the emperor has just woken up and is now seeing the queen. He tells him to wait here for a moment if the prince and Prince De come, and the emperor will naturally summon him later."
Duanmu Lingyu narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold streamer flashed in his eyes: "Father, have you summoned others?"
"The emperor has just issued an edict and summoned Prince Gong, Prince Zhuang, Prince Ning and officials above the second grade to enter the palace." Good lowered his voice and whispered.
Duanmu Lingyu closed his eyes and said, "I know." At this time, several uncles and ministers were summoned into the palace. I'm afraid that my father's body has reached the limit.
In the sky, the red sun saw the westward, and the blood-red light dyed the sky of the whole imperial city red. The people in Kyoto came out one after another to look up at the scene they had never seen before. Many people have knelt down to the palace...
In the Qianqing Palace, Hou Xinlan stood at the door for a long time, and finally lifted the layers of the mantle and walked to the bedside of Duanmu Engine.
Duanmuqing lay down** and slowly opened his eyes when he heard the approaching footsteps: "Are you here?"
Hou Xinlan smiled, and her face without any trace of years smiled like a flower. She reached out and stroked the silver hook carving the lotus flower: "Your Majesty, the decorations here have not changed for a long time. I think it would be happy if Sister Zhenfei is lucky enough to see it."
Duanmuqing wanted to get up, but he couldn't get up. A trace of pain flashed on his face, and his eyes were fierce: "Don't touch Zhen's things!"
"Ha ha, Jane? Your Majesty, do you feel guilty when you call Zhenfei's sister? Hou Xinlan's smile deepened, and her beautiful face reflected the red sun outside the window, which was particularly cold.
Duanmuqing coughed twice and frowned tightly: "Don't talk about her!"
"Ha ha, why does the emperor have to be so angry? Speaking of which, Zhenfei's sister has never entered the emperor's dream since she left, right? I remember that at that time, Zhenfei's sister's body was completely broken, her body was full of abscess, and she lay in cold sweat, and her face was ugly..."
"Shut up, you shut up!" The cold light in Duanmuqing's eyes almost made the queen late, and the low voice seemed to be a roar squeezed from the depths of her throat.
"Shut up? Why should my concubine shut up? Oh, I forgot that the emperor has never seen the last tragedy of Zhenfei's sister. What was the emperor doing at that time? Let me think about it, oh, the emperor banned Zhenfei's sister, because you suspected that Zhenfei had harmed the child in Wanfei's belly..."
Duan Muqing closed his eyes, and the blue veins on his forehead were exposed, which was his most unbearable memory. When he dreamed back at midnight, he asked himself countless times why he treated Zhen'er like that at the beginning. If he hadn't banned her, would the final result be different?
Seeing Duan Muqing's appearance, the queen laughed in a low voice, and the cold laughter echoed in the empty hall: "Your Majesty, you don't know that the child in Wanfei's belly was deliberately killed by herself. Ha ha, at that time, she was trapped by Qin Concubine, and the child in her belly was originally I can't keep it. That child is worth it. He can't help helping Wanfei get rid of her biggest enemy and help her ascend the throne of the favorite concubine in one fell swoop. Ha ha, emperor, every time you spoil Concubine Wan, do you feel the injustice of Concubine Zhen's sister?
Duan Muqing grasped the sheets under her tightly and could almost tear the sheets. Wanfei... Wanfei... The scene of Wanfei's death flashed in front of her eyes. At that time, she knelt in front of Zhenfei's coffin and almost hit her head on the coffin, saying that she couldn't think of it because she was implicated. It was hers hers. Sin, I saved her because of temporary pity. Later, because she became more and more like Zhen'er to spoil her. If the murderer who framed Zhen'er was really her, then she had been...
Hou Xinlan made it to the bedside, and her voice slowly lowered: "Red and withered bones... Among the sister of Zhenfei is red and withered bones... Within seven days, the beautiful face will slowly wither, and finally rot into a piece of mud... Ha ha, emperor, don't you spoil her? Why didn't you go to her?"
Duan Muqing opened his eyes, stared at Hou Xinlan, and roared in a low voice, "How do you know what poison is in Zhen'er?"
"Ha, my concubine knows that it is naturally that Zhenfei's sister told me that Zhenfei's sister is from the world and has a lot of knowledge. Naturally, she knows something that others don't know..." He slowly lowered his voice, "Your Majesty, if it was the concubine who died at the beginning, you would miss your minister as much as you miss Zhenfei's sister. Concubine?"
Duanmuqing was stunned and frowned more: "You..."
"Ha ha, emperor, do you know how jealous I am of Zhenfei! When she entered the palace, I married you for five years. In the past five years, I have dealt with things in the palace, became a qualified queen, and gave birth to children for you. Why didn't you see a concubine? What's good about Zhenfei? Why do you want to treat her like a pearl? How can I be inferior to her? How can I not compare with her? Hou Xinlan clenched her fist tightly, and her nails fell into the palm of her hand. There were a little tears in her beautiful eyes, but the rolling and rising did not fall down.
"Queen..."
"Ha ha, queen, do you still know that I am the queen? Then do you still know that I am your wife and the only wife you are marrying into the palace? Zhenfei got your love, and Wanfei got your favor. What did you give me as a queen?
Duan Muqing closed his eyes and didn't want to see the beautiful woman in front of him: "When I married you into the door, I also thought about taking you well. Unfortunately, the Hou family is too big. For the sake of the previous dynasty, you can only be the queen..."
Hou Xinlan was stunned and looked at **'s Duanmuqing, and her body trembled slightly: "Your Majesty, do you think it's because of the Hou family?"
"After I ascended the throne, the throne was unstable, and the Hou family was held hostage everywhere. At that time, I was young and vigorously, but it implicated you... When the country is stable, I really forgot to ease the relationship with you. After all, I'm sorry for you..."
"Wow..." Hou Xinlan sobbed, and tears still fell down, "Your Majesty..."
"The world is unpredictable and wrong, who can expect what is going on now? It's just that I'm sorry for you. Why did you kill Jane's life?
"Your Majesty, I'm not a concubine, too..." Hou Xinlan said half of a sentence and was stunned on the spot.
Duanmuqing suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Hou Xinlan: "It's not you, who is that?"
"Haha, ha ha, Duan Muqing, I didn't expect you to be counting me until now? Do you want to know who harmed Princess Zhen? I just won't tell you, and I will never tell you! Do you want to avenge the princess? Unfortunately, she can only die for the rest of her life!"
