The tyrant's father, Xiao Tianjiao, the most tyrannical treasurer in the whole dynasty

Chapter 142
Gu Ci sniffed, and finally stepped forward to help the imperial concubine peel the chestnuts, but she lowered her eyes and never looked directly at the emperor Chu and the imperial concubine, presumably because she didn't want to accept Ling Chi in the eyes of others, so as to maintain her last dignity.

It probably didn't occur to her that when she decided to help the imperial concubine peel chestnuts, her dignity had already been stepped on the ground, and she couldn't maintain it even if she wanted to.

She is already a head shorter than the imperial concubine, even though she has the status of a queen.

"Quick."

Chu Huang watched Gu Ci for a long time, and only peeled two chestnuts. Some of them couldn't wait and began to urge them.

The noble concubine persuaded the Emperor Chu in good faith, "Your Majesty, even though my sister has been with the prince for many years, she has never done this kind of rough work. It is understandable to be a little slower now, so don't rush. "

This sounded good-natured.

But whether it is true kindness or false kindness, only the imperial concubine knows.

Emperor Chu looked at the noble concubine with pity, "Didn't I want you to eat it quickly?"

The imperial concubine was moved, "Your Majesty, you are really kind to me."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Gu Ci was so sore that she was about to cry, but she didn't want to be underestimated or pityed by others, so she turned her sadness into efficiency and accelerated the speed of peeling the chestnuts in front of her.

After about a quarter of an hour, the peeled chestnuts in front of her were piled up into a hill.

She patted the crumbs on her hands, stood up, and said to Emperor Chu: "My lord, the concubine is ready."

Her fingertips hurt from peeling chestnuts hard, but she didn't show it on her face, she was still dignified and generous, like a graceful and luxurious queen.

However, what the concubine dislikes the most is Gu Ci.

This makes her just a favorite concubine, destined not to be a queen, without the dignified atmosphere of a queen, nor can she be on an equal footing with the queen.

She glanced at Gu Ci resentfully, and said coquettishly: "... Your Majesty, this concubine is in your arms, so I can't eat chestnuts myself."

"It's not difficult, empress, can you bring the peeled chestnuts for my concubine?" Chu Huang said.

Gu Ci: "..."

It's not like she is a human being!
"What are you doing? Hurry up? Otherwise..."

Before Emperor Chu finished speaking, Gu Ci stepped forward and brought the chestnut in front of the two of them, with a bit of resentment.

"That's right!" Chu Huang took a chestnut from Gu Ci's hand, and fed it to the noble concubine's mouth, "My concubine, open your mouth?"

The noble concubine opened her mouth and ate the chestnut contentedly.

But in a short while, the imperial concubine suddenly cried out, covering her stomach, her face was very hideous, "My stomach, my stomach, my stomach...it hurts..."

Gu Ci's heart skipped a beat.

"Aifei, what's wrong with you?" Chu Huang was anxious.

The imperial concubine stood up from Emperor Chu's arms crying, stumbled and took a few steps forward, walked up to Gu Ci, bent her back in pain, pointed to Gu Ci's nose and said, "It's you, it's all you, You poisoned me... I am, I am like this..."

Gu Ci was astonished, "I didn't, noble concubine, don't spout blood."

"...If you hadn't poisoned me, I...I...how could my stomach hurt like this?" The imperial concubine said with a painful expression.

The Emperor Chu stepped forward to support her, his face full of distress, "Aifei, please calm down first, let's ask the imperial physician to take a look first?"

"I don't even need to look to know, it was my sister who poisoned me." The noble concubine said pitifully: "My sister never likes my concubine, but today, my lord, you let my sister serve my concubine. My sister must have a grudge, so I treated my concubine like this." mine."

Gu Ci said: "Your Majesty, my concubine is not that stupid, she would poison the noble concubine in front of you."

"Let's talk about it first." Chu Huang glared at Gu Ci, and said, "Come here, call the imperial physician!"

After the imperial doctor came to see her, she confirmed that the imperial concubine hadn't been poisoned, she just ate bad food and had a stomachache. She prescribed two medicines, and she was fine after drinking.

no big deal.

But the imperial concubine still insisted that there was something wrong with the food that Gu Ci gave her because of her stomachache, and that Gu Ci tried every means to harm her.

Gu Ci feels aggrieved, but is it useful?Are rebuttals useful?
A man who is not on his side, she is about to be hanged, probably he thinks she is playing on a swing.

The Emperor Chu only cared about comforting the imperial concubine.

But the noble concubine couldn't listen, and kept making troubles, which made Emperor Chu feel a little tired.

"My concubine, tell me, what do you want?"

What the concubine was waiting for was this sentence, she said: "The concubine got sick after eating what my sister gave me, the concubine is not convinced, and the concubine wants my sister to apologize to the concubine?"

"Kneel down and apologize!"

"This……"

It is fine to ask Gu Ci to apologize, but Emperor Chu has no objection.

But if you kneel down.

After all, Gu Ci is a dignified queen.

"My concubine, look..." Chu Huang really cared about Gu Ci's face as a dignified empress.

The imperial concubine also knew that the emperor of Chu would definitely defend Gu Ci in this matter.

Therefore, she prescribes the right medicine and said: "My lord, this concubine didn't intend to make things difficult for my sister, but if my sister's way of apologizing today is too simple, who will take my concubine seriously in this palace in the future? Children born to concubines should be taken seriously."

"Probably everyone will think that courtiers and concubines are not important. In your heart, my lord, your sister is the most important."

"But Your Majesty, you have clearly said that in your heart, the concubine is the most important thing, and the concubine has always remembered it. If you favor your sister today and treat her preferentially, the concubine will not believe your words anymore."

"Aifei..."

No man wants his beloved woman to distrust him, but, but...

Emperor Chu was very embarrassed.

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..." The noble concubine started to cry, and the pear blossoms were crying with rain. I felt pity for it, so as to put pressure on the emperor of Chu.

Emperor Chu looked at Gu Ci, then at the concubine, and was in a dilemma for a long time, but finally couldn't resist the concubine's crying, and chose to compromise.

Looking at Gu Ci, he said: "Queen, I will wrong you today, kneel down and admit your mistake to the noble concubine?" After a pause, he didn't know whether he was comforting himself or paving the steps for Gu Ci, he said again: "It's just to kneel down and admit your mistake. It's not a big deal that hurts your muscles and bones. Just do it? Huh?"

What do you mean it's not a major event that hurts muscles and bones?

She is the queen of a country!

How can you kneel to a concubine?

What is it like to spread the word that she is a queen?They were all stepped on by the concubine, and the queen's glory existed in name only.

Gu Ci's heart was broken.

She doesn't want to kneel.

The imperial concubine cried harder, not only harder, but she also wanted to commit suicide, saying that she had suffered such humiliation today and had nothing to live for.

"My dear concubine, my dear concubine, calm down!" The Emperor Chu hugged the noble concubine anxiously, and held her in his arms, and said with heartache: "If you die, dear concubine, there is no need for me to live. "

The imperial concubine scolded, "My lord..."

"Okay, don't cry, don't make trouble anymore." Chu Huang wiped away the tears for the noble concubine, and then looked at Gu Ci with a look that you really don't know how to flatter and wink at others. Angrily said: "You, quickly kneel down and confess to my beloved concubine? Otherwise, I won't let the prince out."

Gu Ci: "..."

Threatening her with this matter again?

Gu Ci clenched her fists tightly, her nails sank deep into her palm, her palm was pinched, and there was a faint smell of blood that spread from her palm.

The palm hurts, but the heart hurts even more.

However, the Emperor Chu was still forcing her, regardless of her life or death.

"Hey, don't cry. Gu Ci, are you kneeling or not?"

"...Concubine, concubine, kneel..."

Gu Ci struggled for a long time, but still knelt down to apologize to the imperial concubine and admit her mistake.

The noble concubine was satisfied and was willing to let Gu Ci go.

Gu Ci wanted to take the opportunity to let Emperor Chu let Dijiang go, but Emperor Chu sent her away for the time being on the grounds that he wanted to take care of the noble concubine, and let her talk about it in two days.

...

When Di Jiang knew about Gu Ci's grievances at the imperial concubine's place, he was at Mu Wan'er's place, delivering food to Mu Wan'er. Several guards outside were discussing the matter, and he just knew about the grievances his mother had suffered for him.

He put down the food box in his hand, and slammed his fist hard on the wall in front of him, with a sullen expression on his face, "Queen Mother, it's useless to be a servant."

"Brother Dijiang, how is your hand?" After hearing the noise, Mu Wan'er hurried forward, holding Dijiang's hand that just hit the wall to check the situation.

The knuckles on the back of the hand were bruised and purple, which was shocking to watch.

She was so worried, "Brother Dijiang, I'll give you medicine."

Di Jiang didn't say anything, and let Mu Wan'er fiddle with him.

After Mu Wan'er helped Di Jiang apply good medicine, she looked at his wound and warned displeasedly: "Brother Di Jiang, you are not allowed to hurt yourself like this in the future, otherwise, you will never come to see Jiu Jiu again. "

"Nine nine..."

Di Jiang was in a hurry, he didn't want to lose sight of the little girl.

He is very rare for little girls.

"Then promise me that you will not hurt yourself in the future."

"I promise you, it's just..." Di Jiang said sadly: "It's just about my mother's empress. As a son, I can't help her, and I will make her grow old, because I have been wronged like this. me……"

"Brother Dijiang, it's not you who's wrong, it's your father..." Mu Wan'er pointed out with a burst of blood, "If he didn't favor the noble concubine so much that he didn't know right from wrong, and didn't ask right from wrong, how could he There are these things today?"

"I understand the truth, but I still don't want my mother and concubine to suffer these grievances."

"It will get better." Mu Wan'er said firmly, "Brother Dijiang, don't be anxious, and don't be disappointed... In this life, people will not always have sad days, nor will they always be unlucky."

...

Di Jiang also held the idea that everything would get better slowly, waiting for a miracle to come.

But he didn't wait.

Three months later.

He waited for a message.

After his mother was humiliated several times, not only did he not get the Emperor Chu to let go and lift his confinement, but she was humiliated, abused, and stepped on the ground again and again.

Finally she couldn't take it anymore, and in a rage, she pulled out the hairpin on her head, and a hairpin pierced the noble concubine's throat, killing her.

The Emperor of Chu has always regarded the noble concubine as a treasure, and he will let the noble concubine want whatever she wants, wishing to pluck all the stars from the sky and give it to the noble concubine.

But now, his mother killed the imperial concubine?
