A Collection of Old Sayings by Fourth Sister You

Chapter 80 Forbidden Court (80)
Give me back my people, now!immediately! (2)
She closed her sore eyes, her heart gradually burned to ashes, and even the last trace of light was extinguished.Her arms were tied behind her back, as if her shoulder blades were about to come off, she gritted her teeth and stepped back fiercely, almost a layer of skin peeled off her wrists, the pain was nothing.After working hard for a long time, I finally got rid of the shackles and tried to shake the door again, but unfortunately it still didn't move.She was holding on to the lattice on the door with both hands, hanging down slumped, as if she had reached the verge of collapse, she couldn't control herself, she was about to go crazy.Wide-open eyes looked around in panic, only darkness.This narrow cage can swallow people at any time.

Her heart was beating deafeningly, and she didn't know how to save herself. She covered her ears and knelt on the ground, crying heartbrokenly.

The moonlight was gloomy, and when he exited from the song and dance, his face was hot and his ears were hot, and when the cold wind blew, he shivered.

He staggered on his feet, drank drunk, it was rare for him to enjoy himself so much, and his mind stopped.Walking in the corridor between the palace walls with one foot high and one foot low, I relaxed my mind and seemed to drift with the flow.Lu Jing supported each other, and said with a smile: "The officials are happy today, and they drank a little too much."

He raised his hand, "Drunk is not drunk..."

Lu Jing hurriedly said yes, and echoed repeatedly, "I know that there are a lot of officials...the officials are careful with their steps, and they have to go back to the palace to rest. Tonight must be a good dream."

He hummed, his temper has softened a lot since he got Yunhua.A good lover can act as the best teacher in the world. Because of her, she becomes harmonious, which is a subtle change.It's no wonder that these servants all love her, her hostility has been polished away by her, and the lives of those servants in front of the imperial court are nine points easier.In the past, a wrong action would lead to beatings and scolding, but now it won't be the case. The officials are amiable officials, even if there are some conflicts, they can be tolerated.

He walked slowly, looked up at the moonlight in the sky, and asked blankly, "Where's the queen? Okay?"

Lu Jing smiled and said: "The officials forgot, the saint is in the Rouyi Hall! Today's big banquet, because she is no longer in the back seat, so I can't go with the officials. It's about time to rest, Qin Rang is here There shouldn't be any mistakes in serving you."

He nodded, raised his hand to touch the palace wall, the cold and hard edge on the wall made his palm hurt.When she entered Funing Palace, she saw that the lights of Rouyi Hall were half-burned, so she was expected to be asleep.

He stepped up the steps, and suddenly there was a thunderous sound of firecrackers in the city, overwhelming the sky and covering the sky, almost piercing people's eardrums.He looked back in surprise, and there were colorful fireworks in midair, illuminating half of the sky.He stroked his forehead, the time has come...

Pushing open the hall door and walking in, afraid of waking her up, he kept his movements as light as possible.I went to the side hall to wash up, changed into pajamas, and staggered into the apse. The curtain was so heavy that I couldn't see the inside.The incense was changed in the hall today, and it smelled a little uncomfortable, but I didn't take it to heart, I just searched in to find a bed, the lights in the hall were very dim, and I could barely see the way.In a haze, I saw her lying on her back, strangely wearing very little clothes, a thin velvet quilt, black hair spread on the pillow, her fragrant shoulders half exposed, she looked very attractive.

He smiled, sat up on the edge of the bed, and asked in a low voice, "Are you asleep? Have you eaten at night?"

She didn't answer him, she seemed to be sleeping soundly.He lay down beside her, his eyes were sleepy, but his hand couldn't help reaching over, stroking that exquisite shoulder lingeringly.The person in the palm shrank slightly, his interest was getting higher and higher, knowing that she was pretending to sleep, he moved down narrowly and covered her round breasts.The man leaned forward and stuck close to him, but something was wrong, he suddenly got excited and pulled him back, "Who are you?"

The light in the hall was too dim, and he had to squint his eyes to look hard.After seeing it clearly, he hurriedly backed up and got out of bed, most of the wine was sober.His anger suddenly ignited, "Why are you here?"

The imperial concubine stood up, she didn't expect to be discovered by him so soon, and she panicked for a while.Grabbing the obscene clothes, he called the official, "The official calm down..."

How could he not be angry?He took two steps back and looked around, but there was no sign of Rong Hua.The lingering smell of alcohol was shattered by this sudden accident. The panic in his heart expanded to infinity, and he asked sharply, "Where's the queen? Where did you get her?"

The imperial concubine was terrified by his appearance, and murmured: "Tonight, my concubine serves the official family..."

He stared at her so fiercely that he nearly crushed her to ashes.Thinking of being so close to her just now, I almost feel sick.It's just that I don't have time to settle accounts with her right now, so I called Lu Jing loudly, Lu Jing quickly came in from the outside, and said with his hands down through the curtain: "The minister is here, listen to the instructions from the official."

He struggled to open the curtain, "Where's the queen? Where did Qin Rang's killing go?"

Lujing's heart skipped a beat, and he looked into the curtain in surprise, the room was dim, and he could vaguely see a figure, it wasn't the queen, who was that?He shivered in fright, turned around and ran out, calling out all the people on duty at night, and asked Qin Rang's whereabouts, but no one could tell.

Missing?Qin Rang was crucified in Rouyi Hall, how could he disappear for no reason?He looked at the bewildered faces of those under the steps, and his voice was distorted in shock, "Idiot! Idiot! Hurry up and look for it!" After drinking, a few words came to his mind - something big is going to happen!

Entering the hall again, the officials are in a hurry to get dressed.He trembled his legs and went in to report that Qin Rang was gone. Sure enough, he slapped his face and slapped him across the face. Today he was furious, "That's how you do things? What about the queen? Where did you go? What year will it be? Searching all the time, but no one can be found, no one inside or outside Funing Palace will survive!"

He was going crazy, just because he was careless during the festival today, and the guards in the palace had been replaced by Xingyue. He didn't expect such a thing to happen.He was so anxious that his internal organs burned up, and he heard the sound of skin being ripped open in a trance.This time, the person was taken away from his bedroom. It's a great irony that he, the emperor, did this!

His eyes were red with anxiety, and he stepped forward and strangled the imperial concubine's neck. The slender neck was fragile and could be broken without any effort.He gritted his teeth with hatred, he had never hated a person like this.Tightening her five fingers, the imperial concubine's face was flushed under the candlelight, her facial features twisted, she stood on tiptoe, and there was a gurgling sound in her throat.

"Where is the empress?" With a frenzied and terrifying expression on his face, he picked up the noble concubine and shook it like a rag, "Say it or not, it will kill you right now!"

The noble concubine couldn't make a sound, but struggled to resist.Seeing this, Lu Jing hurriedly advised, "Official, you can let go of Mrs. Liang so you can talk, if this continues, she will die, official..."

He was quite clear-headed, knowing that the clues would be completely cut off when she died, so he pushed her aside.She fell on the ground and coughed again and again, and when she recovered, she burst into tears.He didn't have the patience to listen to her howl, so he kicked her over, "Say it while I'm patient!"

She was terrified, trembling out of tune, "I don't know...I don't know anything."

After hearing this, he silently picked up the sword on the wall, pulled it out slowly, and slashed at her.

Lujing turned pale with shock, this sword strike was nothing short of amazing.Before he had time to think about it, he knelt down and supported Jinshang's arm, turned his head and said, "Miss Liang, are you tired of working? If you don't talk about it, you won't have a chance!"

Only then did the imperial concubine realize that she couldn't hide, she screamed and moved back, crying: "The officials spare me, this is not what the concubine meant. The concubine is following the Queen Mother's order. The concubine really doesn't know where Concubine Jing is now." .”

He squeezed the scabbard hard, and the embossed dragon pattern made his palm numb.If it's really the Queen Mother again, he doesn't understand why she always has trouble with Yonghua, is it just because of her background?He is the emperor, so he doesn't need to rely on the influence of the queen's mother's family, so what is the reason for the queen mother?With such a soft temperament, it is impossible for Zihua to have any grudges with her. Why does she want to break them up so hard?

He raised his sword and went straight to Baoci Palace.On New Year's Eve, the palace gardens are brightly lit, and the courtyard is just outside the imperial city.The geisha's soft singing accompanied the music, like a spell calling for death in the middle of the night.

The Empress Dowager was still awake, and she brought all the ladies to watch the new year. After the twelfth birthday, she sat around the stove and ate soup cakes. As soon as he arrived at the steps, he heard the sound of laughter.He was furious in his heart, and at the same time hoped that Yunhua would be there, even if he suffered some grievances, as long as he was there, everything would be turned around.

He left in a hurry, and couldn't wait for Shang Gong under the eaves to report back, so he broke into the palace.All the ladies in the hall turned to look at him, and seeing him holding a sword in his hand, they were so frightened that they couldn't even invite An.He looked over one by one, carefully identifying each face, but there was no Song Hua, and his queen was not here.

The queen mother was very surprised by his appearance. I heard that he was almost drunk, why is he suddenly sober now?In fact, I had a hunch for a long time that the matter was not as easy as imagined, and it was also the fate of the noble concubine. It seemed that it had nothing to do with him.But what does it mean that he raised his sword into the temple?The Empress Dowager frowned and said, "What's wrong with the officials? In the new year, it's not auspicious for us to meet each other in the palace?"

His eyebrows were stained with light frost, and he waved the sword in his hand, "Go out."

When those concubines saw his menacing approach, they scattered like birds and beasts immediately after receiving a word from him.There was only the Empress Dowager left in the palace, he took two steps forward, without any extra words, he just asked, "Where are my people?"

The queen mother was very annoyed, "What about your people? The official's family drank too much today, and they came to Laosang's place to drink and go crazy." He raised his voice to call Lu Jing, "Fuguan's family go back to rest, have a good New Year's Eve, don't waste it. "

Lu Jing glanced at the Queen Mother, lowered his hands and said: "Concubine Jing in Rouyi Hall disappeared, and the official family was at a time of great arrogance. Just now, the noble concubine wanted to pretend to be a fortune, but was found out by the officials, and the noble concubine confessed...it was ordered by the Queen Mother , That's why the officials will break into the Baoci Palace at night, please forgive me. If the Queen Mother knows where Li Niangzi is, please inform the minister, and the minister will immediately take Li Niangzi back to the palace, so as not to worry about the officials."

The queen mother naturally knew it well, but it would trigger such a big reaction from the officials, which was a bit beyond her expectation.She looked coldly at the sword in his hand, and the servant who was tyrannical, her face turned pale with anger.While nodding, he said: "What a son, you plan to kill your mother for a woman, the heavens are watching you! I want to be strong all my life, and I used to be like this in front of your father, but now that it is in your hands, do you actually want to force me to bow my head? I don't know where Li Yonghua is, and I won't tell you if I know it, but if you have the ability to kill me with a sword, I'll get on with it and complain to your father."

But he sneered, "My mother dares to look for my father, I am afraid that my father's ghost will not dare to see you. At that time, my father begged you not to hurt Queen Xianren, and my mother gave her the cane in front of my father. My mother probably already Forget it! Dad was seriously ill at that time, but I was in the prime of life. If my mother insisted on forcing my son to disobey, then my son would have to obey her benevolent orders. Tell me the whereabouts of the queen. After today, my son will still respect my mother. If you don't tell me..."

The queen mother took the case, "So what if I don't tell you? Don't be afraid that God will take you in. You just want to kill me."

He was so angry that he didn't care about anything.My mind is full of her, I don't know where she is now.She was afraid of the dark and lonely, and when he thought of these things, his heart broke.He knew how the Queen Mother would act, and when she became the Holy Mother, she began to work hard, keeping a low profile.But other people don't know the means in her bones, but he, the son, knows it best.He was afraid, afraid that she would embarrass Yunhua, and even afraid that she would kill her.The more I thought about it, the more anxious I became, my eyes were almost bleeding, and I said word by word: "The queen has something wrong, so I will kill all the people in this forbidden place and bury her with her." Ru Mu, in the blink of an eye, cut the food table in front of her into two pieces.

The queen mother was frightened and fell back to the low couch.Seeing that the situation was not good, the two Shang Gong who were close to her called her in a low voice, and winked at her, signaling her to give up.Anyway, they didn't do anything to Li Ronghua. The officials are so anxious and pale, it seems that they will not give up until they achieve their goals.At worst, return the person to him, don't hurt the relationship between mother and child too much, please ask for peace.

She knew it was powerful, but she couldn't bear it.The Taoist said that after marrying a daughter-in-law, he forgot his mother, but now it is good, and after marrying a daughter-in-law, he still has to kill his mother!

She clutched her chest and pointed at him fiercely, "Let your servants see what their majesty looks like. They are fascinated by the appearance. He is not filial or fraternal. He is comparable to Jie Zhou!"

He said: "I am determined to be a good emperor. If one day I have no way, I will be forced by my mother. Give me back my people!" He took two steps forward, "Give me back my people!"

His appearance made her feel strange, and she almost didn't recognize him.This is her son?She looked at him incredulously, "Satisfied, you are really crazy."

"Whether I'm crazy or not depends entirely on your mother's will." He repeated over and over again, "Give me back my people, now! Immediately!"

Lu Jing couldn't see it, knelt down and kowtowed upwards, "Mother and child are united, Queen Mother, do you have the heart to see the officials suffer like this? It is the critical moment of the siege, and the Queen Mother distracted the officials, which led to the failure of success. The Queen Mother is the big axe The sinner of the ages. The minister is utterly loyal to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother must think twice."

In fact, more than half of the stubbornness of the officials is to follow her, and they will never look back even if they hit their heads and bleed.It seems that there is no way to avoid it, but fortunately there is room for it. If Li Yonghua had been killed at that time, I am afraid that there will be a catastrophe in the next ban.

She sighed, and was about to let go when Qin Rang crawled in from the palace door and wailed, "The officials, please save the saint, it's the minister who is incompetent, and was tied up and thrown in the enclosure. Break free...the officials seized Zheng Lu and the two nobles, they led the people here. They must know where the saint is."

He turned his gaze around and stared at them like a beast.Four squadrons rushed in from the door, and detained them before they asked for mercy. The two palace officials turned their heads and begged the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother knew that this farce could not go on, so she waved her hands and said, "I don't know what evil I did in my previous life." , let me have such a son! Take him and return his treasure to him."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, well, nothing will happen if they are found, otherwise these people's lives may have to be confessed today.

The two Shang Palaces hurriedly took orders, "The officials are invited to come with the maidservants. Lady Li is safe and sound in Yongxiang. The officials can rest assured."

He hasn't seen anyone, so it's too early to talk about reassurance.Throwing the sword, he cupped his hands and bowed to the Queen Mother, "Please go with me, Your Majesty, to appease the Queen."

The appeasement was just a polite word, he wanted her to apologize to Empress Li, after this incident, she would have no face to interfere again, and his empress could rest easy.

The Queen Mother gritted her teeth, but she was helpless, seeing his half-mad and half-crazed appearance, it was really scary, so she had to call someone to bring a cloak, put it on, and they went to Yongxiang together.

There was a fog at night, and the fog was so heavy that people could not be seen clearly three feet away.The servant led the way with a lantern, but the more he walked, the more chilling he felt.He had never been to Yongxiang before. It turned out that this alley was so deep, as if it led to the deepest part of hell. The darkness and gloom flowed over his head like a river, making it suffocating.He was so anxious that even his breathing was trembling, he couldn't imagine how scared and helpless she would be locked up in this kind of place.He couldn't touch her fear, and he couldn't make up for her in his whole life.

A man can't beat his head to the ground, but a woman's cruelty is heart-warming and extremely terrifying.He secretly made up his mind that when he found her, he would give her an explanation.He has been thinking about the military and political gains and losses, and made her suffer for no reason. Looking back now, he regrets and hates it.What were those things compared to her?His majestic man actually depends on her sacrifice to fulfill him, so what if such a state is in his hands?So what about King's Landing?
All kinds of burdens were discarded one by one, and after thinking through it thoroughly, he wanted to give her back what she had lost.No matter how the Manchu civil and military objected, he could not change his determination.tomorrow!At dawn tomorrow, it will be announced to the world that he will restore her as queen, and no one will dare to separate them from now on.

But no matter how well planned it was, it was just his delusion.When they arrived at the dark room where she was detained, there was a person lying on the ground in the alley, which was the yellow gate that was ordered to guard.Ban Zhi squatted down to check, Huang Men's body was stiff, and he had died for a long time.Hearing this, his brain exploded with a buzzing sound.Panic ran into the door to see, where there are people!A silk ribbon quietly fell there, like a hole in the center of the earth being cut open by a knife.Zonghua has long since disappeared, leaving only a room of desolation.
