Corrupt official in the Red Chamber

Chapter 469: Collapse

After hearing what the imperial doctor said, Jia Rui sighed, then turned out of the screen and came to Jia Yuanchun's bed.

At this time, Jia Yuanchun's face had a hint of blush, and she looked more energetic, but the flush on her face was a little abnormal.

Jia Rui gently knelt in front of the bed and said, "Sister Yuanchun."

When Jia Yuanchun saw Jia Rui, he twitched the corners of his mouth as if he wanted to smile, but it was also related to his injury, so the smile on his face was ugly.

"You...you're here..."

Jia Yuanchun said something intermittently.

Jia Rui looked at the dying Jia Yuanchun and didn't know what to say, so he could only respond in silence.

"Is the child okay?" Jia Yuanchun's tone became much smoother, as if a force was suddenly injected into him.

Jia Rui nodded gently, "The little prince is very healthy."

There was a hint of relief on Jia Yuanchun's face. She took a few breaths and then said: "I know that this child will not have a good end in the future, but for the sake of you and me being of the same clan, I hope you will leave a life for this child." Life."

After hearing this, Jia Rui felt a little sad. No wonder some members of the royal family had sworn an oath: they would not be born into an imperial family in the next life.

At this time, Jia Rui also had a fierce ideological confrontation in his heart. Intellectually speaking, he could not agree to Jia Yuanchun's words.

Because this child is a curse. After he ascends the throne, those old and young will still resist in the name of this child.

But emotionally speaking, Jia Rui was somewhat unable to refuse Jia Yuanchun, a person who was about to die.

So Jia Rui fell into silence again, and he wanted to respond to Jia Yuanchun with silence.

At this time, Jia Yuanchun stared at Jia Rui closely. Seeing that he didn't speak, he continued to beg.

"Give him a bowl of food and imprison him in the palace. As long as you don't kill him, anything will do."

"If that doesn't work, give him a castration. As long as he keeps his life, sister, I will work hard to repay you in my next life."

Listening to the cuckoo's cries of blood, Jia Rui's eyes were a little moist.

In the end, Jia Rui couldn't bear to reject Jia Yuanchun. He sighed, and then said: "Sister, don't worry, he is your flesh and blood after all. I will keep him safe as long as I live."

After hearing these words, Jia Yuanchun finally relaxed, his eyes filled with gratitude.

But perhaps due to being too excited just now, Jia Yuanchun now once again has no strength to speak, and can only express his gratitude to Jia Rui with his eyes.

Jia Rui sighed, stood up and exited the room.

After a while, Siqi's cry came from inside. It seemed that Jia Yuanchun had collapsed.

Jia Rui stood in the courtyard of Kunning Palace for a long time, and finally sighed and said to Lao Li who was following him: "The Queen has passed away, and all etiquette must be done solemnly without any deviation. "

"My slave understands."

Jia Rui nodded and then continued: "The little prince has just been born and cannot be left without someone to take care of him. Now he is sent to the Yangxin Hall to be raised by Baochai."

This is Jia Rui's plan for this child!

Since he promised Jia Yuanchun, he would not make a mistake. If he were to leave him to a random concubine in the harem, the child's fate would not be much better in the future.

But if he is given to Xue Baochai to raise, then the people from the outer dynasty will at least look at Xue Baochai's face and won't pursue it too closely.

And in the future, if he passes away and Xue Baochai's children inherit the throne, they won't go too far to kill them all because of their little love with Xue Baochai.

After making these arrangements, Jia Rui left Kunning Palace in a hurry.

When passing by the Qianqing Palace, Jia Rui stopped, then slowly got off the chariot and walked into the Qianqing Palace.

He first came to the main hall of Qianqing Palace and looked at the magnificent throne above, feeling a little melancholy in his heart.

From ancient times to the present, many heroes have fought to the death for this throne.

And the time traveler myself is no exception.

In order to sit on it, I can say that I have exhausted all my efforts and done a lot of good and bad things. Now think about it, who can I tell you about the feeling!

After sighing for a long time, Jia Rui walked to the side hall and came to a small palace with heavy security.

The person locked up here is Emperor Xiaokang.

When the guards guarding the small palace saw Jia Rui coming, they quickly knelt down and saluted.

Jia Rui went forward and helped several guards up as before, patting them on the shoulders and saying a few words of encouragement.

These guards were deeply moved by what Jia Rui said, with flushed faces and tears in their eyes. If Jia Rui asked them to die now, these people would not hesitate at all.

Then Jia Rui asked Lao Li to wait outside, and he entered the room alone.

After entering the room, Jia Rui saw the emperor still sitting at the table writing something?

"It's so late, why don't you rest?" Jia Rui asked casually.

The emperor raised his eyes and glanced at Jia Rui, then lowered his head and continued writing, ignoring Jia Rui.

Jia Rui walked over without getting angry and looked behind the emperor. What on earth did the emperor write?

It turned out that the emperor was writing about his experience in governing, which was mixed with many inspirational words. "Why are you writing this?"

The emperor put down the pen in his hand, rubbed his numb wrist, and then said: "Leave a lesson for the child, maybe he can put things right in the future."

This is simply calling him a bald donkey in front of the monk, and calling him a rebel in front of Jia Rui.

But Jia Rui was not angry, but pulled up a chair and sat opposite the emperor.

"The Queen gave birth to a prince just now."

After hearing this, the emperor was not happy at all, but had a hint of sadness on his face, "Am I going to see the Emperor soon?"

Jia Rui didn't lie to him and nodded gently.

After seeing this, the emperor stood up and laughed loudly. The louder he laughed, the louder he laughed, and in the end he became a little crazy.

Jia Rui just sat there and looked at the emperor who was venting.

After a while, the emperor's laughter finally subsided. He supported the wall for a while, sat back, stared at Jia Rui and asked, "When did you want to rebel?"

At this time, Jia Rui was no longer ready to hide anything from him, and at the same time, he was also ready to vent the depression he had suppressed in his heart over the years.

"From the time you asked Ruyang Hou Zhang Ji to my death."

The emperor also nodded after hearing this. He seemed to have traveled through time and space and returned to that time. "Back then, I was still high-spirited and in control of the overall situation. I never thought that you would force me to this point."

Jia Rui looked at the emperor in front of him, complaining about his misfortune in his heart.

If he were a time traveler without a golden finger, the emperor would not necessarily lose by relying on the general trend. Who asked him to carry a golden finger? He could only admit that he was unlucky.

"What do you think I have done poorly in these years as emperor?" The emperor was a little confused. Where did he go wrong? The Supreme Emperor always distrusted him.

Jia Rui turned his back on the emperor, and then said: "Sometimes in order to fight for power, you have ignored the loss of the country, and you are a little too naive, betting your treasure on those scholars, but do you know that these people Just a wallflower."

After listening to this, the emperor pondered for a moment, finally nodded and sighed, "I now understand that these scholars can only share wealth and wealth, but cannot share hardships. If I control the general trend of the world, these scholars will naturally be ruined. Once I If they lose power, they will also draw a clear line with me for the sake of the family behind them."

After saying this, the emperor added regretfully, "The emperor's control of military power was too strict back then, and I couldn't get involved at all."

Then the emperor fell in love with Jia Rui and asked, "Why did the Emperor let you intervene in the military?"

Jia Rui smiled slightly and said nothing. Did he tell the emperor that he used the soul-destroying talisman to control the emperor?

When the emperor saw that Jia Rui did not answer, he did not continue to investigate further, but said: "After my death, will my ancestral temple continue to be popular?"

Jia Rui nodded lightly, and then said: "The Supreme Emperor has a great debt to me, how could I let the incense in his ancestral temple become cold?"

The emperor was satisfied. You must know that in this world where gods and ghosts exist, the continuation of incense is related to the future after death.

"For my princes and relatives, please leave some roots for them. Don't catch them all. This is the last thing I ask you to do on behalf of the Supreme Emperor."

The emperor's tone was very calm when he said this, as if he was talking about other people's affairs.

Jia Rui looked at the emperor, then lowered his head and said, "I only promised the Queen to protect her bloodline. I can't help the others."

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and then a sincere smile finally appeared on his face, "Okay, okay, I really saw you right."

The emperor was not only happy that he could retain a bloodline, but also happy that he had not misjudged Jia Rui.

Retaining a bloodline shows that the emperor's line can continue to extend.

And he was right about Jia Rui, because Jia Rui was not merciful and wanted to kill all the royal family. This also shows that the emperor, who is Jia Rui's opponent, did not lose unfairly.

"You should have a good rest." After Jia Rui said this, he stood up and walked out.

However, the emperor stopped Jia Rui at this time, "Wait a moment, I have something else to say."

Jia Rui did not look back, but stood at the door waiting for the emperor to make the final explanation.

"Please don't bury me and Jia Yuanchun together."

After hearing this, Jia Rui's eyes became sharp, and he turned his head and stared at the emperor fiercely.

The emperor meant that he hated the Jia family and did not want to sleep with the women of the Jia family after his death.

But this would be a great humiliation to the Jia family.

The emperor looked at Jia Rui stubbornly, this was his last insistence.

Jia Rui stared at him for a long time, and then said: "Etiquette has always been paramount since ancient times. Even though you are the emperor, you are no exception."

After saying this, he left.

But the emperor sat slumped on the chair, and finally lay on the imperial desk, crying silently.

This is a cry for one's own future destiny, and a cry for the imminent end of a dynasty.

Until now, the emperor has not figured out why Jia Rui controls the world's military power.
