Chapter 123 Ma Qianzi 4
As soon as night fell, the maid of honor came to report that Changsun Wuji and Li Shimin had discussed important matters in the study. Nian'er put on the robe of early spring for me. Although the May season was warm, there was still a weak chill from my body, which made me feel warm all day long.
I drove down the maid of honor and slowly walked to Princess Qin's bedroom with the help of Nian'er. Every step is extremely heavy, as if it is as difficult to move forward in deep water, hard and tense, very panicked. Her hall was bright and brilliant. Standing at the door and looking at the dozens of candle lights, she felt her eyes bloom. After recovering for a long time, the maid of honor at the door bent her knees and blessed herself: "Mo Zhao teaches all blessings."
Princes Qin was trimming the flower branches in the hall with scissors. The red petals fell to the ground, and the petals of the branches were pitifully thin. Princess Qin turned her head when she heard the maid asking for Fu, with a gentle smile on her face and waved to me. And I always kept my face silent and left Nian'er outside the hall. Princess Qin touched my smileless and indignant expression, but she also retreated the maid of honor in the palace without mind. Until I was in front of her, I watched her gentle smile and speechless for a moment, and my heart was entangled. The scene in my mind has been echoing from beginning to now. I bit down and knelt down and said, "Princes Qin, please let me go."
Princess Qin was shocked, leaned over and pulled me and asked, "What does this mean?"
I raised my head, looked at the woman I respected, and smiled bitterly: "After my Highness and I came back from Luoyang, Princess Qin wanted to get rid of me, right?" I spread out my palm and showed the soft skin. "The scar on the scar-faced maid's face is fake at all. It's all arranged by you."
Princes Qin looked at the soft skin on my hand, then closed her eyes and sighed. When she opened her eyes again, she was fierce that she had never seen in her eyes: "Oh, you still found it. You shouldn't have stayed in the palace. If you don't leave, you can only drive you away!" My heart was tight. Did Princess Qin hate me so much? I smiled stiffly and asked as if comforting myself, "Why is this?" Princess Qin led the concubine of Chengqian Hall, who was generous and kind-hearted.
She smiled and pulled me up and stood in the hall: "Don't make me so perfect. I'm just an ordinary woman." She suddenly turned around, looked at the hazy night outside the open window, and said quietly, "I laid the poison of your first child, and the astragalus is also mine. The astragalus of the second son is what I want to frame you. Later, I added horse money to your meal and inquired about you to help the little eunuch who sent tea to Mu Fengyi get medicine. I secretly asked someone to add an extra horse money to frame you. But so many times, I had to send you another tonic wine, so that you can die of poison after drinking!" She suddenly turned around, and the beads of the jade hairpin on her hair jingled, which shocked my heart. Her hateful eyes were mixed with inexplicable helplessness and stared at me and said, "However, your first child is dead, the second son is dead, and Mu Fengyi can't have children. Why are you still alive?"
I grabbed a word and was shocked: "What did you say, Yaner... can't have children?"
Princes Qin smiled and took it for granted and approached step by step: "It's not just Ma Qianzi in the tea, it's contraceptive tea. The root of the disease left by her poisoning is infertile. Look, you have killed so many people, why haven't you disappeared, and why do you still mess up the world!" The sharp roar shook back in the hall, and I only felt that thousands of layers of black clouds were sunk down on the top of the hall, which made my eyes suddenly dark and I didn't dare to clear what happened. I shook my head and retreated and muttered unbelievable, "I don't believe you will be like this. The Princess Qin I know is not like this! I don't want to hurt those people, not at all!"
Princes Qin has always been profound and righteous. How can it be because I have done so many terrible things! A thought flashed in my mind, and I seemed to be a little clear. I grabbed her shoulder and asked, "It's the emperor, right?"
One moment, Princess Qin was stunned, and I immediately got the answer from her face, and I felt a little relieved. If everything is planned by the emperor, then Princess Qin is not sincere to deal with it, so the emperor wants to get rid of me, which means that he still attaches great importance to Li Shimin. Princess Qin pulled away my hand, smoothed the wide sleeves that were wrinkled by me, shook her head with a sarcastic smile, and joked, "Not only the emperor, but also the king of Qin, whom you love deeply!" The stable heart suddenly stunned, and his footsteps retreated to a seat. Suddenly, he softened his heels and sat down. He looked up and looked at her lips closed one by one, saying words that were heartbreaking: "The emperor wants to kill you, how can your Highness not know? But can you believe that he also loves you deeply in everything he has hidden from me?
No, it won't! He used to be so good to me! My heart was pounded to my throat and my eyes fluttered, and I covered my ears and didn't want to listen anymore. Princess Qin pulled my hand, leaned down and leaned down close to my ear. The breath of speech fell behind my ear, which made me shiver uncontrollably and begged again and again. Do you remember the way he looked at you in the past? And you know better than me what it looks like now. He doesn't love you at all. Why do you still want to die here? And those who died and hurt because of you, how should you face them? Even if you die 1,000 times and 10,000 times, it will be difficult to eliminate all your sins!"
My back clung to the chair and my whole body trembled, and my eyes were astringent. I tried to open my eyes to prevent tears from flowing down. I couldn't help rejecting: "I don't believe it, I didn't mean to, I'm not!"
Princes Qin pressed my shoulder and lowered her eyes on the chair with sharp eyes: "If you don't believe it, you just don't accept the cruel reality. Look at what this is!" She pulled out a letter from the grid under the next desk and threw it to me. I held it up and looked at it. Tears suddenly fell first-class, and her hands gradually tightened, and a few ferocious wrinkles suddenly appeared on the letter. Princess Qin pulled her face coldly and revealed my pain as if it was her greatest happiness at this time. She raised her eyebrows proudly and smiled: "When your first child died, Song Fengyu came, and Your Highness happened to be absent. I used my identity to ask him for the letter, and Your Highness didn't know there was this letter at all. Do you understand now that even how much Your Highness loved you in the past, as long as I don't like it in this temple, it won't be better!"
"But you are just... just a pawn of the emperor." I put down the letter and tried to calm my emotions. "The emperor wants to make his majesty invulnerable, so it is difficult to act clearly. And you are different. If you really want me to die, just execute me directly under a charge. Such a great effort to delay my life is because you are also hesitant and struggling more! You said that you didn't like me to appear in the palace, saying that Your Highness no longer loves me, just to give up and ask me to leave this life-and-death struggle!"
Yes, it must be like this. I don't live in the bottom of my heart to shout. She is just a favorable pawn of the emperor in Chengqian Hall. As long as Chengqian Hall and the East Palace are stable, the brothers will not turn against each other, and there will be no civil war in the court.
"Don't think your insights are true. Don't guess anyone's thoughts and purposes. You must not know too much in the palace!" She retorted, then took my hand and took a gold medal from my waist and put it on my palm. "I'm either dead or leave." He doesn't love you, and there is no room for you here. I ask you never to come back and don't bother us again!" Her eyes were painful and forbearable, and her fierce eyes flashed with a trace of water. She clenched my hand and closed the gold medal: "From now on, hide your name and find your freedom."
In my mind, the gold medal was frighteningly cold in my hand, and my heart suddenly trembled. I pushed it back and bent down, pulled Princess Qin's robe and mourned, "Princes Qin, I can't go. I promised him to stay by his side no matter what, life and death. I don't believe that he will forget. I don't believe that he abandoned my life and death. I don't believe it at all! I beg you!"
Princes Qin opened her hand and pushed it away. I turned to the ground and felt numb all over. I couldn't find a real feeling. Her anger swayed in my ears and burst into tears. She was angry in her eyes and almost roared, "If you don't leave, you won't blame my concubine!"
Your Highness's maid couldn't help listening to the sound inside and knelt down at the entrance of the palace and asked Princess Qin to calm down her anger. Nian'er rushed to the hall and knelt beside me and knocked on Princess Qin's head heavily. She looked up with tears in her eyes: "I beg Princess Qin to take Mo Zhaoxun back to the hall!" Princess Qin stuffed the gold medal into Nian'er's arms and ordered angrily outside the palace: "Go quickly to find the driver, and the rest take Mo Zhaoxun to the backyard of Chengqian Hall. No matter what you do, you can't be found!"
In the past, no matter who wanted to kill me, it was easy, let alone Li Yuan. Now, as Chengqian Hall Zhaoxun, I am a person beside Li Shimin. Li Yuan is not willing to kill me randomly, so he asked Princess Qin to design me. He wants me to die. Who dares not obey? Princess Qin now speaks to this, and it is clear that she wants to let me out of the palace and leave this fear.
As for Li Shimin, I don't know if he still cares about me, and I don't know if I will continue to hold that persistence. Maybe it was a mistake for me to be with him, or maybe I should have been killed three years ago. It's just that the god of fate reversed this end, but now he has to return to the origin. Who is responsible for the pain? God has created joys and sorrows. Why should we bear the results?
And I am so persistent that even if I disobey the heavenly master, I will fight to the death.
I pushed away the maid in front of me, waved my sleeves and patted them left and right to keep them away from approaching. Nian'er knelt down and cried with tears, begging me not to be so angry and hurt her. How can I calm down? How can I disdain? I want to leave him forever. I have never received an explanation. Without asking a word "why", how can I be willing to be calm!
Suddenly, my chest was breathless, and my mind was stuffy, and the palace girl in front of me suddenly turned into a ball of ashes. Somehow, the two ears buzzed in the second, and there were chaotic screams in the hall in my ears. Finally, I couldn't even provoke my index finger, and I lost consciousness.
