Chapter 131 The Death of Emperor Guangxu
Emperor Guangxu thought for a moment. He wanted to hold Zhenfei's hand, but was rejected by Zhenfei.
"Well, what do you want? If I can satisfy you, I will find a way to give it to you. Emperor Guangxu said.
A concubine, what can she want? Gold jewelry and fame and status are nothing more than that. Therefore, Emperor Guangxu blurted out without even thinking about it.
Zhen Xing slowly raised her head. Emperor Guangxu looked at her handsome face and suddenly felt that he had been fooled. Because he read a kind of perseverance from Zhen Xing's eyes that he had never seen before.
"Your Majesty, my concubine, I want to be free." Zhen Xing said word by word.
Emperor Guangxu was shocked, and he looked at Zhen Xing in a daze. The person in front of him is still the little girl around him. How to find something more interesting all day long?
No, she's not. She's definitely not! The person in front of him was not the little girl who pestered him every day and became a little eunuch and he played chess in Qianqing Palace.
I haven't seen her for a few years, and she has changed. It has become that he doesn't know her. To be precise, she is no longer the princess of the past.
Emperor Guangxu looked at Zhen Xing, and Zhen Xing also looked at him.
"Why?" Emperor Guangxu asked.
Zhen Xing squeezed her lips. Why? Because she has others in her heart, because she has her own home in Yili, because she now has her own life and doesn't want to be destroyed by others. But does she dare to say? To tell the truth, you are going to lose your head. Zhen Xing's mouth became smaller and smaller. Xiao De looked aside and wanted to remind her to speak carefully.
Zhen Xing kowtowed respectfully to Emperor Guangxu, but she didn't say why. When Emperor Guangxu saw Zhenxing kowtowed, the thin and weak hands suddenly clenched his fists.
"Are you... are you... are you determined not to go back to the palace?" Emperor Guangxu asked.
Zhen Xing took a deep breath and said softly, "It's my concubine's fault. My Majesty, please give my concubine the death penalty!"
"I don't want you to die now. I want you to go back to the palace!" Does this Forbidden City hate you so much? Do I hate you so much?" Emperor Guangxu was furious.
Zhen Xing lowered her head. It's free to live or die. At this point, what else is she arguing about? At this time, what else can we do except let go of fate? The monarch is heaven. God wants you to die. Can you live?
Emperor Guangxu's tears fell down. Xiao Dezhang knelt down and cried and said, "Your Majesty, take care of the dragon body. Madam, Madam, she definitely doesn't mean that!"
"Your Majesty, my concubine, my life is very good now. I have my own business and my own house. I don't want to go back to the Forbidden City and endure the suffering. Has the emperor forgotten? In those years, how painful was it for my concubine to be locked in the west courtyard behind Jingqi Pavilion? I don't want to fight with the queen, and I don't want to look at each other unpleasantly with my sister. Ask the emperor for a gift and let my concubine live some ordinary days. Zhen Xing said.
Emperor Guangxu looked at Zhen Xing's body in a daze and was sad for a moment. Did you leave to come back or to leave? I haven't seen her for just a few years. Why did she change her mind?
Zhen Xing knew in her heart that according to the character of Emperor Guangxu, she was probably going to die. The emperor's woman followed other men. What else could happen except death? This is a patriarchal society. What is the status of women in this world?
Emperor Guangxu has a bad temper, and naturally he will not let her go. In his heart, she drew an equal sign with dependence and pets. In this deep palace compound, the only person he can trust is her. And she is cute and cute, like a little hamster. He held her hamster in his hand, but if the hamster bit him, he would immediately clenched his fist and crush her to death.
Zhen Xing and Xiao De Zhang both knew what was going on at this time, and Xiao De Zhang was sweating in his head. If Emperor Guangxu found that Zhenxing had married with Qi Boxong outside, after removing these two people, the next person to die would be his master Cui Yugui. This matter is handled by Cui Yugui inside and outside, so who will die if he doesn't die?
Xiaode Zhang kowtowed repeatedly and said with a half-crying voice, "The emperor is angry, the emperor is angry. Jane must not mean that. Jane is angry with you. In the past few years, Xiaozhu Zhen has been wronged outside, and his heart is aggrieved. In addition, little Lord Zhen is afraid. She is afraid that when she comes back, the Empress will not let her go!"
Emperor Guangxu listened to Xiao Dezhang's words and looked at Zhen Xing. It can be seen that he is willing to believe in Xiao Dezhang, which is simple, and he does not want to believe the fact that Zhen Xing has changed her mind. Zhen Xing can understand this. Xiao Dezhang said so precisely because he grasped the weakness of Emperor Guangxu.
Zhen Xing was grateful to Xiao Dezhang from the bottom of her heart and did not hesitate to commit the crime in order to save her. However, what she wants is freedom. She has made up her mind not to return to the Forbidden City. Unfortunately, she can't die with Qi Boxong, so this may be the biggest regret in her life.
"Princess, is that so? If so, you don't have to worry. I promise you that she will never dare to touch your hair! As long as I re-enther, I will spend money on her immediately!" Emperor Guangxu said.
Concubine Zhen immediately shook her head, tears were in her eyes, and she began to think about Qi Bolan again. The more she faced Emperor Guangxu, the more she missed Qi Boxong and her home.
"Your Majesty, that's not the case. My concubine, what I just said, every word is true. Concubine, I don't want to go back to the palace. I just want to live the ordinary life of some people. Please ask the emperor for your approval. Zhen Xing said.
Emperor Guangxu knew that this was true, and his face was full of disappointment. He turned his head and a tear slipped down. I have been waiting for many years, but I have been waiting for this result.
"If so, what if I don't agree?" Emperor Guangxu turned around and said coldly.
Zhen Xing closed her eyes and kowtowed deeply to Emperor Guangxu. Your Majesty, please give me a blessing to my concubine, and take it as a reward for the emperor's kindness to my concubine. Zhen Xing said.
Emperor Guangxu's eyes widened, pointed to Zhen Xing and said angrily, "You... How can you say such a thing? Is the days of the people more attractive to you than being a queen?
Zhen Xing shed tears and raised her head and whispered, "Your Majesty, you haven't experienced the joy of being a commoner. There are schemings hidden everywhere in the cold palace, but the people are different. I like to live the life of the people. It's really comfortable to be busy every day. You won't be afraid to say something wrong, and you don't have to worry about breaking the rules. Life is in the palm of my concubine's hand, and I can arrange it as I want. My concubine also has a kitten. The kitten is very naughty and often scares my concubine with a mouse. This kind of happiness can't be experienced in the palace. Today, my concubine said a lot of rebellious words. Please forgive me and forgive my concubine for talking too much.
Emperor Guangxu took a deep breath and turned his head in pain. He closed his eyes in pain. Did the past concubine die a few years ago? Is it another person he sees now?
"You...you go..." Emperor Guangxu cried.
"Thank you, Your Majesty..." Zhen Xing kowtowed, and the stone in her heart suddenly put it down.
"Wait, I'm not asking you to go back to Yili. In the past few days, the emperor's father is in poor health. I'll call you again in a few days!" Emperor Guangxu added a sentence.
With a sw of Zhen Xing's heart, she fell into the ice cellar. Dare, Emperor Guangxu did not intend to let himself go! Hey... She knew that Emperor Guangxu didn't let go so easily. Nowadays, how is it good?
Zhen Xing knew that she had no intention to say more at this moment, so she followed Xiao Dezhang and left. As soon as the two went out, Xiao Dezhang complained about Zhenfei. Zhen Xing wiped her tears without excuse and followed Xiao De Zhang to the lake.
Suddenly, Xiao Dezhang's eyes widened. Zhen Xing followed his eyes and saw that there was an additional boat on the lake at some point. The ship has reached the shore.
"Who is it?" Zhen Xing asked.
Xiao Dezhang waved his hand, quickly pulled Zhen Xing and hid. After a while, Li Lianying walked up the steps. Zhen Xing and Xiao De Zhang looked at each other. Li Lianying did not take the little follower, but carried the food box by herself. This is not like Li Lianying's character!
As soon as Li Lianying came, the eunuchs immediately greeted her. The mouthful little eunuch came forward to report, but Li Lianying waved her hand to make them retreat. Without saying a word, Li Lianying broke into Emperor Guangxu's bedroom with a basket.
At this moment, Emperor Guangxu was still sitting on his ** covered with golden bedding, recalling the scene just now. Hearing that the door was pushed open, Emperor Guangxu thought that Zhenxing had changed her mind. But who knows, it was the big donkey face that came in. Emperor Guangxu hurriedly turned his head to wipe away his tears. The big donkey face was the empress dowager!
Li Lianying came in and immediately kowtowed to Emperor Guangxu.
"Your Majesty, this is a tonic for tribute from the imperial pharmacy. The Empress Dowager said, please take it." Li Lianying said.
Emperor Guangxu turned his head and scolded sharply, "Don't you know what my habits are? Go back to the emperor's father and say that I'm in good health and don't need those tonics!"
Li Lianying smiled and waved her hand. Several little eunuchs suddenly came forward and held down Emperor Guangxu. Emperor Guangxu was shocked. It was the first time that he had been subjected to such behavior since he was under house arrest! Anyway, he is also an emperor!
"You! What do you want to do!" Emperor Guangxu shouted!
On the contrary, Li Lianying looked calm and slowly took out the bowl of boiled medicine from the food box. With a faint smile on the donkey's face, Li Lianying was careful, as if what he touched was not medicine, but a pearl!
Li Lianying turned around and looked at Emperor Guangxu gently. That look, where does it look like a eunuch looking at the emperor? It's obviously an elder looking at the newborn baby! Emperor Guangxu was shocked by his eyes!
