Chapter 358 One Heart ([-])
(PS: I suggest that you go back and read Chapters 288, 289, and 290 "The Successor" after reading this chapter. Superimposed viewing effects are better^_^)

On such a night, since the emperor returned to the palace, he has not slept all night.

In his hand, he held the finger wrench that Yide had given her since he first entered the palace, and he was still in mourning.

After all, he was the one who couldn't stand this fiery woman.

Perhaps it is precisely because Yide's every word can poke the most hidden pain in the emperor's heart that he does not want to be known to others, that he is so disgusted with Yide.

As she said in her mouth, the imperial power of the country is better than the friendship of a beautiful woman. Since ancient times, emperors have never been able to have both.

For these, he betrayed Yide.

However, only by defeating Yide can he preserve the Qing Dynasty without the slightest possibility of being shaken by his relatives.

Facing his ancestors and ancestors, he had a clear conscience.

But facing Yide, he didn't want to see him again.

Things in this world, not everything can have a result, if the ending is destined to be unsatisfactory, avoiding fear is the only good way to suspend the feeling of guilt in my heart.

The emperor always thought that by abolishing Yide's succession and raising her in the palace for a good life, and never seeing her again in this life, he had avoided the gap like a gap between him and her.

But even an emperor, how can everything go smoothly?
Getting up this morning, Liang Jiugong waited on him to change the court clothes. When he left the palace, he slowly uttered a sentence: "Declaration of my will, Xiaoyu Sixth Palace, the empress Niu Hulu, has a lack of virtue and a surly nature. In the palace, there is no slack in power. Now, take back the golden book and seal of the Empress Dowager, and relegate her to Concubine Yi. All affairs in the six palaces will be handed over to the noble concubine Tong's assistant."

Liang Jiugong was terrified when he received this letter, and his hand holding the clean whip couldn't help trembling: "Your Majesty, this... are you going to abolish the Empress?"

"It's not that I want to abolish her, it's that she hates me and no longer wants to be married to me."

After saying this, the emperor hastily entered the Qianqing Palace, where the imperial gate was in charge of the government.

In the previous dynasty, the war between Yunnan and Guizhou was tense, and the ministers and the emperor were discussing state affairs, so time flew by without realizing it, and more than an hour passed.

When Sishi was approaching, he saw Liang Jiugong's face was pale, and he almost rolled and crawled to the side of the emperor.

He had a sad face, tears streaming down his face, his body couldn't help shaking, and he knelt down with a 'plop' sound.

When the emperor is in charge of the government, how can a eunuch interrupt at will?

For a while, there was a lot of civil and military discussions in the court, and the emperor looked worried, and said angrily: "Liang Jiugong, are you looking for death?"

"Your Majesty." Liang Jiugong wiped away his hot tears, and cried out sadly, "Empress Empress, collapsed!"

"what?"

The emperor was so shocked that he fell backwards as soon as he leaned over. Fortunately, Liang Jiugong was quick-witted and got up quickly to help him stabilize.

When all the courtiers heard the bad news, they knelt down and wept bitterly.

The emperor suppressed the analgesia in his heart, lowered his voice and asked Liang Jiugong: "How could this be? But you declared that decree, she."

"The slave didn't announce the decree." Liang Jiugong sobbed in a low voice: "When I went to Kunning Palace, the palace people only said that the empress was still asleep. The slave waited outside, but after waiting for a long time, there was no movement inside. The concubine who greets you has already arrived at Kunning Palace, and the palace servants have called for a long time but still can't hear anything. It was the concubine Wan who ordered the servants to break open the palace door, and then entered. I never thought about it, man."

His shrill crying stopped abruptly, and he looked at the emperor's expression from time to time, only to get an angry reprimand from the emperor, he boldly said: "The empress wrapped the roof of the beam with imperial phoenix satin, and hanged herself to death on the beam! When he was rescued, he was already completely cold.”

The emperor's face was full of horror and his eyes widened, but he couldn't say a word.

Such news spread throughout the Six Palaces, the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Renxian were shocked, especially the Empress Dowager felt that she and the emperor gave Yide the finger pull that made her infertile in the past, which made her violent today Desperate suicide, even more grief.

She wanted to mourn before Yide Ling, but was repeatedly dissuaded by the emperor to return to the palace.

Just because the appearance of a person's death is too ugly, how can a person of the empress dowager's age see it?

On the other hand, Empress Dowager Renxian, because she had received Yide's life-saving grace, broke in regardless of the emperor's dissuasion. Seeing that half of Yide's neck was strangled, she almost fainted from fright.

The accompanying imperial physician brought menthol oil, and it took her a long time to smell it before she regained her composure.

Although the man regained his senses, he was sad and weeping endlessly, pointing at the emperor and cursing: "Yide is your first wife! She is the empress of the Qing Dynasty! You actually forced your own empress to death. This matter will make Ai Xinjue feel ashamed." Luo Shi's face is completely lost! Emperor! Aijia is watching how you explain to the people of the world!"

At that time, apart from the Empress Dowager Renxian, only Fu Zhuo and Liang Jiugong, the judges of the Imperial Hospital, were present, and the rest of the concubines were blocked from entering.

The emperor suppressed the grief in his heart, and calmly ordered Liang Jiugong: "Let the world know that Queen Niu Hulu died of a serious illness and died in Kunning Palace!"

The Empress Dowager Renxian was even more sad when she heard the words, she rushed to Yi Deling and cried, "Is it worth it? It's not worth it, my child!"

The emperor shouted angrily: "Come here, the Empress Dowager is too worried, send him back to the Palace of Mercy immediately!"

Several palace servants supported the Empress Dowager Renxian and walked out, but they didn't know where she got the strength to break away from the crowd, and slapped the emperor heavily on the face with great strength: "Emperor! Patriarchs! Zong Ke is watching! You can fool the world, how can you fool your own heart?"

After receiving this slap in the face, the emperor's expression became clearer, and he sighed needlessly: "Emperor Niang, let's go back to the palace and rest first, don't worry too much."

After this sentence, the Empress Dowager Renxian was dragged and dragged by the palace people, and moved back to the Palace of Mercy.

At that time, the emperor retreated to the left and right, and stood alone in front of Yidezi Palace.

He tremblingly stretched out his hand to caress Yide's cold cheek. She was so beautiful in her life, and she was proud of her appearance.

But now, in the end, he chose such an unseemly way of death.

Just to embarrass yourself.

"Yide." The emperor said with trembling lips and tears, "Why are you doing this? I'm sorry for you. If I knew you would be like this, how could I?"

His throat tightened, and he could not utter a word.

The whole person collapsed in front of Yidezi Palace, crying bitterly.

At Sishi on February 17, 26th year of Kangxi, Empress Niu Hulu died in Kunning Palace. ②
Because of the mourning, the palace was mourned and the court was stopped for five days.

The next day, Empress Daxing's coffin was enshrined in the main hall of Kunning Palace, and the concubines wept bitterly. All the funeral ceremonies were even worse than that of Empress Renxiao.

On February 28, the Palace of Empress Zi of Daxing was transferred to Wuying Hall.

That day seeing the elder sister's death, Wannao fainted before she had time to cry.

After being moved back to the palace, he developed a high fever, and became unconscious every day, as if he had been boiled dry, and he was no longer as sane as before.

In a coma, Rong Yue and Lin Lan stayed by her side every day, hearing that she would call Yide by name every time, tears could not help but fall down.

Seeing this, the emperor felt sorry for him, and even ordered the Taiyuan Hospital to put all its strength to ensure that there is no danger.
