There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 303
"You know it all?"

Meng Yuyao paled in shock, and couldn't help but take a few steps back while hugging her stomach.

"Impossible, you can't know, this child is obviously yours, does the emperor still want to admit it?"

She looked at the bright words in Tong Shi again, and the intimate memories about the emperor instantly appeared in her mind, and she was sure again.

"Impossible, you can't possibly know, Xia Houjue, this Tongshi is fake, so don't think about letting it go. Could it be that the intimacy between us is all fake?"

"If this is the case, then why did you suddenly let me out of the cold palace, suddenly restore my status, and suddenly treat me like other concubines? Isn't this contradictory?"

Xia Houjue looked at her with a sneer.

"That's right, I just pardoned the world because the empress is about to give birth. Who would have thought that the concubine Xian would still be so crazy when she was out of the cold palace, and she even had an affair with others, and there was a dark knot in the womb!" Xia Houjue's eyes were extremely cold.

After all, he waved his hand.

"Come here, take Concubine Xian back and interrogate her carefully. You must find that man and come out. Finally, give me two cups of poisoned wine to fulfill this pair of fateful mandarin ducks."

When he mentioned the four words "Miserable Mandarin Duck", the corners of his slightly raised lips were full of sarcasm, and Concubine Xian looked at all of them seriously.

"Your Majesty!" She suddenly panicked.

"You can't arrest me, I am pregnant with the emperor's heir, the emperor spares my life, the emperor's concubines will never dare again, the emperor spares my life..."

The last moment Meng Yuyao was taken out, she looked at Dong Xianglan with begging eyes.

"Help, Xianglan, help, help, someone!"

The people around who controlled the palace were all members of the Meng family, why would they be indifferent when they heard their shouts.

Didn't you mean to support the child in your stomach to succeed?Why does everyone care about her life?Why is Dong Xianglan's face pale and cold? Is she determined to see herself die?

Sure enough, Dong Xianglan looked at herself viciously and laughed.

"There are so many healthy baby boys in the world, why must it be your child? It's good for those people to work for you, but what if you die? Hahaha..."

"If you die, the position of the future queen mother will be mine. Do you think I will save you or not?" She spoke more and more slowly, and finally even looked at her with a vicious sneer.

At the last moment when Meng Yuyao was pulled down, she gave her the most gentle and bright smile.

"Thank you, sister Yuyao!"

"Bitch! You bastard! Pfft!" Meng Yuyao spat out a mouthful of blood in anger, fell to the ground and let the eunuchs hold her down.

……

Soon there were only two people left in the tower, Dong Xianglan and Xia Houjue.

Seeing the people pouring into the palace from outside the palace walls, and seeing the Imperial Forest Army in the palace gradually losing ground and about to be unable to hold back, the most proud smile appeared on her face again.

"Your Majesty, have you seen it?"

"Although Meng Yuyao is useless, the people of the Meng family are really good at it. They only incite ordinary people, and the royal family does not kill ordinary people. You must remember?"

It means that although you have soldiers in your hand, you can't use a knife or a gun, okay?Those common people are full of resentment and anger, but it is not something that your body of the Yulin Military Region can resist.

So who will this country belong to? Everything is clear, right?
I am afraid that one day, the surname will be changed in this imperial city. Will it be Meng or Dong?Ha ha.

"Really?" Xia Houjue stood there calmly, not intending to stop him in a panic.

"From my point of view, you are still too happy. If I remember correctly, you have deceived those common people, right?"

"What's there to lie to?" Dong Xianglan suddenly felt flustered, but after looking at the gorgeous palace, she smiled again.

"There's nothing to lie to, your majesty, you just need to watch carefully."

Xia Houjue smiled lightly and said nothing, turned around and looked at the palace indifferently.

Dong Xianglan began to feel flustered, yes, she did deceive these idiots, she let those literati make up the luxury and luxury of the imperial palace in detail.

What is the floor paved with gold bricks, what is the hall full of gold and jade, what is the emperor's meal with delicacies from mountains and seas, what is the emperor's clothes only need to be woven with gold thread.

Those literati and scholars showed the fictional palace to all the people in the most easy-to-understand way.

And these common people just happened to be unable to eat enough because of natural and man-made disasters.

The strong contrast and someone secretly provoking them made them lose their last shred of reason, and then they expanded all the way from the south of the Yangtze River to the capital.

And along the way, the three of them became tigers, word of mouth spread the truth, and the truth went a long way. In the end, it was even rumored that the emperor drank human blood and ate elixir in order to live forever.

Oh, it's ridiculous and sad.

The ridiculous thing is that some people actually believe in these things. The sad thing is that the people who even believe in these things have never read any books.

Although most of the people of the Great Xia Dynasty had enough food and clothing, most of them were still illiterate and uncivilized all their lives. They could only listen to the words of those who had passed on through word of mouth. They didn't even have the right to choose the truth. nothing.

Thinking of this, Xia Houjue's heart was like a heavy stone, and his brows were furrowed.

Time passed by minute by minute.

The palace was quickly occupied by people from outside the palace, the concubines were tied up, and the eunuchs and maids were also tied up and thrown together.

Fortunately, the imperial forest army was guarding the periphery, so they could barely protect these people from being invaded by unscrupulous refugees.

After the refugees flooded in, one or two went crazy, and some would take off their clothes when they saw anyone. Don't you wear gold thread?I'll pull it off and sell it for you.

Some people desperately dig the floor tiles on the ground, don't you pave the floor with gold bricks?I'll poach it for you.

There are also those who are desperately scraping the glazed yellow bricks on the wall with knives. Don’t you paint the walls with gold?I'll scrape it all off for you.

It is said that this palace is full of treasures, even the daughters of the palace look like gods, wearing gold and silver, since you are so rich, why don't you know how to help our poor people?

Since you are not willing to help, then we can do it ourselves.

There is an old saying that is full of warmth and thinking of love, maybe these people have never even had enough food and clothing, they really don't have much idea of ​​these women in the palace, and they are all focused on these gold and silver.

Unfortunately, they were soon disappointed.

Because the palace is not what they heard. There are neither gold bricks on the floor nor gold powder on the walls. The clothes they wear are not made of gold thread, and most of the jewelry they wear is not gold or silver.

Most of the rooms in the palace are not as gorgeous as they imagined, and some of them are even old and dilapidated.

The maids are only wearing some better materials, they have all seen them before, and they can't afford to roll them into cloth, but they must be worthless if they are ripped off from other people's bodies.

Most of the headdresses pulled from the heads of court ladies are velvet flowers, which are beautiful but worthless.
