Chapter 176: Concubine Liu's Misery, Qing'er Gets Married (1)
She defended him like this, and for him, she could endure the heartbreaking pain, but he betrayed her in order not to be affected by this matter.
For so many years, she has worked so hard, what is it for?
Originally thought that even if the emperor didn't love her, as long as the prince ascended the throne, she would be the empress dowager, who could enjoy the dignity of being under one person and above ten thousand people, but now, she realized that she was wrong, and she was wrong. It's too outrageous.
That man has no humanity at all. Even if he becomes the emperor, even if she is his real mother, he will never let her be the queen mother.
After all, she was born as a court lady. After all, what happened back then was not a glorious thing, so how could he let people know about what happened back then.
So, from the very beginning, he only used her at all, and never regarded her as a mother. Even if the emperor didn't find out about her crimes today and didn't deal with her, he would never keep her after the crown prince successfully seized the throne.
This is her sorrow, but she didn't understand until now.
It is impossible not to hate or complain. For a moment, she wanted to confess the prince, but she held back in the end.
He can be ruthless, he can not treat her as a mother, and he can sacrifice her at any time, but she can't do that kind of cruelty. After all, she is her own flesh and blood that fell from her body, how can she bear it.
The eyes were slowly closed again. At this moment, she did not cry out in pain. At this moment, the physical pain was nothing to her, and the most painful thing was the heart.
Hearing what the prince said, the emperor subconsciously narrowed his eyes. Deep in the eyes, there was a bit of thought, and the corners of his lips were slightly pulled. The prince's actions at this moment really puzzled him.
If Concubine Liu is really with the Crown Prince, wouldn't the Crown Prince's treatment of Concubine Liu at this moment make Concubine Liu give up and make Concubine Liu recruit everything?
Meng Fuying and Xuanyuan Ye were also stunned. Dongfang Shuo's brows raised slightly, and he looked into the eyes of the prince with a bit of inquiry.
"That's right, I did kill that guard." However, Concubine Liu opened her eyes again, but suddenly said in a deep voice. At this moment, there was a slight tremor in her voice, which should be because of the uncontrollable pain all over her body. The pain, but at this moment, she is enduring it forcefully, not even making a slight moan.
While speaking, a pair of eyes swept across the prince, and then landed on the emperor, the corners of his lips moved slightly, and he said word by word again, "I killed the guard. I quietly left the palace when the emperor was in the study. killed him."
"It's really you?" The emperor's eyes narrowed even more, but there was obvious suspicion in his expression. At this moment, he didn't believe her words at all. If she wasn't with the prince, there was no reason to do so.
Concubine Liu naturally guessed what the emperor was thinking, with a slight sneer on the corner of her lips, she said word for word again, "I just want to prevent the emperor from saving Concubine Rou. Before entering the palace, the emperor will definitely not let the national teacher use the method, as long as the time is missed, the emperor will not be able to save Concubine Rou. So I killed the guard who went to inform the minister."
Concubine Liu was trembling with pain at the moment, but there was a bit of awe-inspiring fearlessness in that voice.
She said the words in reverse at the moment, but judging from her tone and expression, she was determined, and she decided that she would never change again. Moreover, her rhetoric was also true. Somewhat possible.
And Xuanyuan Ye's eyes sank slightly, if it was true what Concubine Liu said, the bodyguard's body would not be discovered until the emperor asked someone to check.
Concubine Liu was obviously lying.
The prince lowered his eyes slightly, under that layer of cold, it seemed that something was hidden quickly, and the hands hidden under the sleeves also tightened slightly.
Just, but didn't say anything.
"Your Majesty, kill me. I did everything." Concubine Liu said again in a deep voice. At this moment, she just wanted to die quickly. She really couldn't stand the pain.
"I killed the first queen, and I also killed the concubine Ping. I also arranged for the fake concubine Rou. Originally, I wanted her to kill the real concubine Rou, but I didn't expect that she would go against my will." Order." Concubine Liu wanted to die at this moment, so she was not afraid of anything, and she did not hide her crimes.
The emperor listened to her words, but his face became more and more gloomy, especially when he heard that she had harmed Concubine Rou, his eyes were instantly gloomy, and the coldness in his eyes shot straight at her, as if he wanted to make her instantly Generally frozen.
"You vicious woman." The corner of the emperor's lips pulled slightly, he gritted his teeth and growled. Unexpectedly, she who was usually the most docile was the most vicious.
"Hahaha..." Concubine Liu laughed out loud suddenly, but in that laugh, a few drops of tears slowly slid from the corners of her eyes, and there was a bit more obvious resentment in her eyes looking at the emperor. The slightly pale lips parted slightly, and he said slowly, "I am vicious? The emperor said that I was vicious. Since the emperor wanted me that time, he has never paid attention to me again. The queen has tried her best torture me, I am just a little maid, the most humble servant in this palace, if I don't try to protect myself, I can only wait to die..."
Speaking of this, Concubine Liu's words paused slightly, the corners of her lips showed a slightly sad and wry smile, she looked into the emperor's eyes, but seemed to be a little more mocking, and said again, "Fortunately, I... I am pregnant with the emperor's child, but after the empress found out, she did everything possible to kill the child in my stomach..."
Concubine Liu said, the resentment in her eyes became more and more obvious, with a hint of gnashing of teeth faint hatred, "Under such circumstances, it's hard to say, I still want to be slaughtered, my viciousness is also forced out by you .”
She didn't seem to finish what she said just now, so she suddenly changed it. Meng Fuying frowned slightly, as if she faintly felt that she seemed to be deliberately hiding something just now.
Moreover, she faintly felt that Concubine Liu seemed to pause slightly when she mentioned that she was pregnant with the emperor's child, and she didn't know if it was her illusion.
However, for a while, she couldn't think of what she could hide.
She believed that what Concubine Liu said at this moment could not be false. The queen knew that her court lady was pregnant with the emperor's child, so she would definitely not let Concubine Liu give birth to the child.
So, I heard that Concubine Liu's child seemed to die after birth.
So, Concubine Liu must have hated the former empress deeply, so there is really no reason to help the prince?
"Come here, let me take this woman into the dungeon." Hearing Concubine Liu's words, the emperor was slightly taken aback. He knew the dangers in the palace, so Concubine Liu's resentment was also normal.
However, thinking that a vicious woman like Concubine Liu not only killed the first empress, but also Concubine Ping, and Rou'er, how could he let her go.
However, he felt faintly that this matter still seemed a bit strange, and he could also see that Concubine Liu wanted to die with all her heart, so now, he didn't want to kill Concubine Liu immediately.
The prince raised his eyes slightly when he heard the emperor's words, and narrowed his cold eyes slightly. When he looked at Concubine Liu who was trembling in pain on the ground, he clenched his hands again.
He never expected that the emperor would still keep Concubine Liu under such circumstances, and he was a little worried in his heart, for fear that Concubine Liu would reveal his life experience.
Concubine Liu also couldn't help being stunned, her eyes quickly looked at the emperor, her face was full of astonishment and doubts, but she also thought that if the emperor didn't kill her at this moment, he must be trying to get something out of her mouth, so she said ruthlessly again, " I have already said what I want to say, the emperor should kill me."
But I don't know whether I said this to the emperor or another person.
"Take it down." The emperor's face darkened again, and he said in a cold voice.
"Yes." The guards, who dared to be a little slow, quickly took Concubine Liu and left.
The prince's eyes glanced slightly at Concubine Liu's back, and then lowered his eyes again, but there was a bit of obvious killing intent hidden in the slightly lowered eyes.
Keeping her, he is not at ease after all, and, she is living like this now, it is also a kind of painful torture, it is better...
"Your Majesty, can you let the national teacher go now?" Da Xiran saw that Concubine Liu had admitted everything, so he said again, but he was secretly a little puzzled, obviously this plan was discussed with the crown prince.
If that woman is not from the prince, why should she bear such a crime for the prince?
The emperor's dark eyes showed a bit of annoyance, but at this moment, there was really no reason to detain the national teacher, so he could only order the guards on the side, "Go and bring the national teacher here."
Da Xiran secretly breathed a sigh of relief this time, but Xuanyuan Che kept his eyes slightly lowered, didn't speak, and didn't know what he was thinking.
"Fu'er, where is your mother and concubine now?" The emperor's eyes slightly turned to Meng Fuying, and asked in a deep voice. Although there was still obvious expectation in the voice at this moment, it was gone. Excited, she seemed to have guessed that Meng Fuying did not bring Concubine Rou back.
Meng Fuying was slightly startled, and quickly glanced at the prince, slightly hesitant, but now that the emperor asked her, she had to say it.
He took a deep breath, and then slowly said, "Go back to the emperor, Concubine Rou... she has returned to the Wind Clan."
"What? What did you say, Rou'er has returned to the Wind Clan?" Hearing Meng Fuying's words, the emperor suddenly exclaimed, his eyes widened even more suddenly, and his face was filled with unbelievable panic.
"How is this possible? How is it possible? How could she return to the Wind Clan?" The emperor's body was completely frozen, but the slightly raised hand was trembling uncontrollably. Panic and fear.
Rou'er returned to WindClan, then she returned to that man's side, right?
Xuanyuan Ye couldn't help being shocked when he heard Meng Fuying's words. He also didn't expect that the concubine mother would return to the Wind Clan.
"She, who did she go back with?" The emperor thought for a moment, then suddenly looked at Meng Fuying again, and asked in a deep voice. Earlier, Meng Yuntian once said that Feng Yuehen returned to the capital with him.
Originally, he was afraid that Feng Yuehen would come to the palace to make trouble, but he didn't expect Feng Yuehen to appear in front of him at all. Originally, he thought that Feng Yuehen had given up his mind.
But he didn't expect that he had brought Rou'er back to the Wind Clan long ago.
The emperor's words that Meng Fuying heard were questions, but she already knew the answer. Seeing the gloomy expression on the emperor's face at the moment, Meng Fuying slightly lowered her eyes and did not speak.
Meng Fuying's silence let the emperor know that her guess was correct, and she felt a little more scared in her heart. She slowly looked at Xuanyuan Ye with a little disappointment and anger on her face. The concubine secretly took her out of the palace, away from Zhen's side, and then sent her to that man's side?"
His deep voice was full of pain, it was the pain of losing Concubine Rou, and also the pain of Xuanyuanye treating him like this.
"Father, we didn't hand over the mother and concubine to that man, he found the mother and concubine himself." Meng Fuying couldn't help saying when she heard the emperor's accusation against Xuanyuan Ye.
The emperor has no reason to blame Xuanyuan Ye at this moment. It was because he hurt Concubine Rou time and time again, which made Concubine Rou completely give up, and had to leave the palace.
Facing the news of Concubine Rou's death, the emperor believed it, so he just immersed himself in the pain.
However, after Feng Yuehen heard the news, he didn't believe it at all. As soon as he returned to the capital, he went to look for Concubine Rou, and he even found her.
To be honest, if she were Concubine Rou, she would leave with Fengyuehen.
"How dare you say that?" The emperor turned his eyes to Meng Fuying again, and roared in a low voice, "If you hadn't brought her out of the palace, how could Feng Yuehen have the chance to bring her back?"
Meng Fuying was slightly stunned, and felt a little more disappointed. The emperor is still selfish after all, and until now, he has not realized his fault.
They even blamed them for taking Concubine Rou out of the palace. If they hadn't brought Concubine Rou out of the palace, Concubine Rou would have been murdered to death by now, and even if she hadn't been killed, she might have died of grief.
Xuanyuan Ye's eyes narrowed slightly, and when he looked at the emperor, a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips, and he said slowly, "Up to now, you still don't understand, for so many years, the concubine mother In this palace, how much suffering I suffered for you, originally, I felt a little guilty because of this incident, but now, I really feel very lucky, glad that I brought my mother and concubine out of the palace."
"You?" The emperor was angry, and the slightly raised hand trembled even more, and the eyes looking at Xuanyuan Ye became more angry.
"Your feelings for mother and concubine are not true love. Even if you are sad and regret it now, it is not because of true love, because you don't know what true love is at all." Xuanyuan Ye said to the emperor With the anger on his face, he didn't flinch in the slightest, but said in a cold voice again.
In contrast, he hoped that his mother and concubine Fengyuehen would be together, because he knew that Fengyuehen's true love for his concubine was without any impurities.
He has already decided to give up the throne, so he doesn't have to pay attention to those secular etiquettes and royal rules in the future.
In the future, he will take good care of his woman and hope that his mother and concubine can get real happiness.
"You, you..." The emperor was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, pointed his hand slightly at Xuanyuan Ye, and roared angrily, "Do you think I really dare not deal with you?"
Xuanyuanye's eyes dimmed, his face was a little more disappointed, and he sneered slightly, "Is there anything in this world that the emperor dare not?"
There was obvious sarcasm in that low voice.
"Okay, very good." The emperor's anger rose even more, and he said ruthlessly again, "I will decree now to take away your military power, and I want to see how rampant you can be."
Xuanyuan Che raised his eyes slightly, and when he looked at the emperor, what was hidden in the depths of his eyes?
Although he was a little surprised by the emperor's impulsive decision at the moment, but thinking that Xuanyuan Ye not only took Concubine Rou out of the palace, but also sent Concubine Rou to the arms of other men, it's no wonder the emperor is not angry.
Which man can watch a woman he cares about fall into the arms of another man?
There was a slight sneer in his cold eyes. He never thought that there would be such an unexpected harvest tonight.
It's just that when he looked at Meng Fuying, his eyes quickly disappeared a little bit. Similarly, he couldn't bear to see the woman he cared about but had to accompany other men.
No matter what, he will take her back and let her stay by his side.
"Whatever you want." Xuanyuan Ye didn't take the emperor's words seriously, but there was a little more coldness in his eyes, and he snorted in a low voice.
"Come here, take his soldier talisman." The emperor was even more annoyed, and shouted loudly to the guards around him,
The guard couldn't help being stunned, his expression was a little more hesitant, he didn't know whether it was the emperor's angry words or it was true.
"No need, I'll hand it over myself." But Xuanyuan Ye took out the soldier talisman on his own initiative and threw it into the guard's hand.
Then he ignored the emperor, but quickly left with Meng Fuying.
The emperor looked at Xuanyuan Ye's leaving back, the anger in his eyes rose even more, and he roared angrily again, "Nizi, this Nizi."
Turning his eyes slightly, when he looked at Xuanyuan Che and Da Xiran who were still standing aside, it seemed that he realized that they hadn't left yet, his face became more gloomy, and he said coldly, "What are you still standing here for?"
"My son leaves immediately." Xuanyuan Che closed his eyes again, and said with a little respect, but there was a little more sneer in his heart.
The emperor and Xuanyuan Ye had a dispute at this time, it was really God helping him.
As soon as he finished speaking, he left quickly with Da Xiran.
"You said, is it true that the emperor took Xuanyuan Ye's military power at this time, or is it false?" Da Xiran asked Xuanyuan Che in a low voice as he walked.
Xuanyuan Che's footsteps faltered slightly, but a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips, and he said slowly, "Whether it's true or not, I will definitely not let him go this time."
This time, not only for the Xuanyuan Dynasty, but also for that woman, so he can only succeed, not fail.
After the emperor saw the prince and Da Xiran leaving, the anger on his face faded slightly, and the obvious pain quickly appeared in his eyes.
Standing upright, he shook slightly, as if he was a little unstable.
Rou'er has returned to WindClan, is he afraid that he will never see her again?
He knows how powerful Fengyuehen is. At the beginning, if Rou'er hadn't chosen him, he would never be able to bring Rou'er back, but now, Rou'er chose to leave him and give up on him.
So, now, he has no chance at all.
He also wants to go to the Wind Clan to find Rou'er, but now the court is in chaos, and tomorrow is the day when Qing'er gets married, how can he leave?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." At this moment, Eunuch Liu hurried over, seeing the Emperor standing in the yard safe and sound, finally heaved a sigh of relief, hurried forward, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, you I'm fine, the servant has been waiting in the study, and I haven't seen His Highness the Seventh Prince, the imperial decree..."
"Prepare for the morning court." The emperor quickly concealed the emotion on his face, his eyes sank slightly, and interrupted him with a cold voice. After tossing all night, it was already time for the morning court.
Now, if he wants to bring Rou'er back, he can't let the Xuanyuan Dynasty have anything to do.
Eunuch Liu was slightly stunned, but he responded again and again, quickly preparing for the emperor.
"Did you do it on purpose just now?" After leaving the palace, Meng Fuying looked at Xuanyuan Ye and said in a low voice.
Xuanyuanye should have said that to the emperor on purpose just now, probably because he was afraid that the emperor would be too impulsive for a while, put down everything in the Xuanyuan Dynasty, and go to Concubine Rou. If that was the case, the entire Xuanyuan Dynasty would really be in chaos.
It's just that she doesn't know what happened to the emperor's seizure of Xuanyuan Ye's military power?
"Let's go." Xuanyuan Ye didn't answer her directly, but hugged her tightly, and said softly, "It's getting late, go back early and have a good rest."
He knew that with her intelligence, she must have guessed something. Yes, he did intend to provoke the emperor on purpose just now.
