Moonlight Allure

Chapter 188 Blood Stained Palace

Xiao Ziqi's eyelids were heavy and his mind was in a daze. He seemed to see that person from Tsinghua University looking at him.That pair of shimmering phoenix eyes contained complex emotions, including surprise, puzzlement, and guilt...

"Yanyan..." He called out with difficulty, with blood overflowing from the corner of his mouth, enchanting and glaring.He knew that he was exhausted.That sword had pierced through his heart, and even the Immortal Da Luo would not be able to save him.

"You don't have to do that." Luo Qingyan looked at him complicatedly, the last time Xiao Ningxuan forced the palace to rebel, Xiao Ziqi helped her find the gunpowder.At that time, she had already suspected that Xiao Ziqi was not simple.Xiao Moli didn't tell her everything until yesterday.While she was slightly surprised, she also lamented the coldness of the royal family's affection.Just like what Xiao Moli said, if Xiao Mingjing knew that Xiao Ziqi's dissolute appearance was all fake, then he would definitely want to get rid of it quickly.Therefore, he is not invincible, but has long since lost his chance.

He was already angry, but there was no trace of warmth in Xiao Mingjing's eyes, as if Xiao Ziqi was just a stranger to him.

There was a smile on Xiao Ziqi's pale face, and what was sent to his heart was no longer the usual naughty charm, but a pure smile from the heart.It seemed that at that moment, he let go of everything, all burdens and responsibilities.

"You saved my life, now, I will pay you back."

Luo Qingyan was shocked. She saved him at first, although it was a subconscious reaction, but it was more... because Xiao Ziqiu had saved her before, and she just wanted to give it back to him.

"I didn't intend to kill you." Damn Concubine Yao, and Yao Yuanzheng.But her two sons were not wrong, the only thing wrong was that they were born in the emperor's family and had a cold-blooded father.

Xiao Ziqi squinted his eyes and shook his head, "I know" he chose this path willingly.He knew that his father would find out about those people sooner or later.The Yao family fell, and the emperor's tolerance for the concubine mother had reached its limit.The father has always been cold-blooded, so he could attack the eldest brother and the seventh brother without hesitation at first, so he and the second brother can also attack him and the second brother in the future.

So, at that moment, he rushed forward almost without thinking.He also knew that he was bound to die.

Xiao Mingjing has been watching from the sidelines, his face dark and gloomy, he naturally knows a little about his own son.He naturally knew better what Xiao Ziqi had done in secret.The Yao family was too powerful, even though the two sons were not in court, he would not tolerate the slightest possibility of threatening the imperial power.It's just that he didn't expect that this son would take the initiative to expose him in the end, knowing that he couldn't save Yao Yuanzheng, but he would die to save him.

As an emperor, he is cold-blooded and ruthless. He has done anything for the sake of the heaven and earth.Force father to seek power, kill brother and son.Use concubines to abolish hair wives.But he didn't feel that he was wrong. In order to protect the heaven and the country forever, he could only be ruthless.But now seeing this dying son, he actually felt heartbroken.After all, blood is thicker than water, no matter how big a mistake his mother made, he was still his own son.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?
Concubine Yao Gui couldn't move after her acupuncture points were tapped, she looked at her pale son with tears streaming down her face.

Xiao Mingjing was irritable, seeing that the imperial physician hadn't arrived yet, a layer of anger burst from the bottom of his heart.Just as he was about to roar out the door, he saw several imperial doctors rushing in with medicine boxes.

"See Your Majesty..."

"Okay, let's take a look at Qi'er." Xiao Mingjing really cared about Xiao Ziqi at this time, and didn't care about those etiquettes anymore.

"Yes..." The imperial doctors quickly squatted down, looking at the heavy faces of the people around them, their hearts sank slightly.The head physician Jia Tai of the Imperial Hospital took Xiao Ziqi's pulse with a solemn expression, and as soon as his hand caught his pulse, his expression changed.

"How?" In fact, Xiao Mingjing knew in his heart that even Xiao Yuche and Luo Qingyan, who were descendants of genius doctors, could do nothing about it, let alone these imperial doctors.

really--

Imperial Physician Jia knelt in front of Xiao Mingjing, shook his head, his face was ashen.

"The sword is like a three-pointed heart, it's already..." He dared not say the words Huitian Weili, fearing that the emperor would kill him in a fit of anger.

"Bastard!" Xiao Mingjing flew into a rage when he heard these words, he swung his sleeves abruptly, with a cold expression on his face, the imperial doctors knelt on the ground trembling with fright, and cold sweat broke out frequently on their foreheads.

"What do I want from you?"

"The emperor forgives the sin, the emperor forgives the sin" Those imperial doctors were frightened by Xiao Mingjing's anger and begged for mercy one by one, their heads hit the floor with a bang bang sound, and the blood stained the ground.Seeing this, Xiao Mingjing was annoyed for a while, "Get out of here!"

"Yes... yes..." Those imperial doctors scrambled out, feeling lingering fear.

Xiao Mingjing turned around and looked at the crowd around him, but none of these people paid any attention to him.For a moment, he only felt sad, as if... he had betrayed his relatives.Bitter in his heart, he stepped up and walked out.The bright yellow figure disappeared into the night, infinitely desolate and lonely.

Xiao Ziqi looked at the direction where Xiao Mingjing was leaving, and then his eyes fell on Xiao Moli.

"Fourth brother!"

Xiao Moli squatted down, with a painful expression on his face.

"Third Brother!"

Xiao Ziqi smiled slightly, "Fourth brother, you did not disappoint me." He has known for a long time that the fourth brother is talented and intelligent, and his political and military skills are no longer inferior to anyone, and he has always been keeping a low profile.Now, at last, he's fighting back.No, since he survived from the cliff, he has been fighting back.

The decision of the father and the emperor's grandmother was right, and the fourth brother was the most suitable candidate to inherit the throne.He has strategy, he has the arrogance of an emperor, he has the forbearance and endurance that ordinary people lack, and he has more strength.

Xiao Moli closed her eyes, her brows were full of desolation.

"What are you doing..."

"You understand, don't you?" The fourth brother probably has already seen his thoughts.

Forget it, anyway, when others are about to die, nothing matters anymore.

"Fourth brother, actually...I envy you very much." Yes, he is very envious of fourth brother.Born in an emperor's family, family affection is really extravagant.Although the fourth brother lost his mother since he was a child, Concubine Yan loved him in every possible way when he was alive, and his father loved the house and Wu, and he also loved the fourth brother like a treasure.And he, although he has a strong background and a distinguished status.But when the concubine mother was young, she only knew how to compete for favor and consolidate her status.He didn't spend much energy taking care of the two brothers at all.Not to mention the father, because of the huge influence of the concubine's family, the father has been very indifferent to him and the second brother since he was a child.

However, these are not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the fourth brother can stay with the woman he loves forever and grow old together.And he, who died young, was also a lonely life after all.

In the past, he was not qualified to seek the so-called love, but when he finally found the love in his heart, she had already found her lover.But he could only watch her marry his own brother in a bright red wedding dress.How cruel and unfair is God?However, he has no right to complain.

"The most ruthless emperor's family, I hope in the next life...I'm just a commoner...washing my hands to make soup, idle clouds and wild cranes..."

"Fourth Brother..."

"Third brother..." Xiao Ziqiu also felt sorry for each other, from childhood to adulthood, because of the prominent family background of his mother and concubine.In the palace, the two brothers seemed to be the most beautiful, but they were actually the loneliest in their hearts.In the end, fall in love with a woman at the same time.But that woman fell in love with their own brother, and they had to quit if they couldn't even fight.Because, they owed that person...

"Second brother, don't be sad... Actually, this ending is... the best for me..." The corner of his mouth overflowed with blood again, and his breath became weaker and weaker, almost unable to hold on.

"Third brother..." Xiao Ziqiu's eyes were flustered, and he hugged Xiao Ziqi tightly.

Xiao Ziqi half closed his eyes and shook his head, taking advantage of his last breath, he looked at Xiao Moli.

"Fourth brother, I know...I know that you have always suspected that Concubine Mu killed Concubine Yan...but...but you were wrong, no...not Concubine Mu..."

Xiao Ziqi's words surprised everyone around.

"What did you say?" Xiao Moli clenched his fists tightly. Could it be that the third brother knew something.Ling Jueshang, who was standing by the side, also had a look of shock and expectation.

"Ahem...fourth brother...that's right, Concubine Mu really wanted to kill Concubine Yan..." He opened his eyelids hard, and with the last bit of strength, he said everything he knew, "At that time...I was still young...but But I remember it clearly..."

His eyes drifted away, and his pupils were covered with a layer of mist, as if he was remembering something.

"That night...it rained heavily...the entire palace was quiet...I couldn't sleep that night, I got up and passed by the inner hall of the concubine...but I heard someone talking in the room...cough cough...I was lying on the window... Saw... I saw a man in black handing Concubine Mu a bottle of medicine... Looking at Concubine Mu's expression... I probably don't know the identity of that person. I only heard something vaguely... Hundred Day Drunk... Just give Concubine Yan the Hundred Day Drunk , Concubine Yan will definitely die..."

Luo Qingyan and Xiao Yuche were terrified.

"Impossible." Xiao Yuche said in shock, "Hundred Day Drunk is a chronic poison. If you take it every day, your body will gradually become weaker, as if you were infected with a cold. It won't be until a hundred days later..." He suddenly thought of something, and looked at Xiao Mo dripping.

I saw Xiao Moli's complexion of pain and clenched fists, as if he had already guessed the ending.

"And then?" He asked hoarsely.

"Concubine Mu...Concubine Mu was a little hesitant at first...but...but the man in black secretly bewitched Concubine Mu...I...I wanted to go in and stop...Unfortunately, that person found out...I ran away in panic...the next day... Concubine Yan passed away the next day...cough coughcough...I know...that's all I know...I've been hiding this secret all these years...I'm sorry, fourth brother...she...no matter how bad she is...she is also my mother..." These For many years, he has been ashamed of his fourth brother because of this matter, but even if the mother and concubine have committed a heinous crime, she is also the mother who gave birth to him and raised him. How could he have the heart to expose her?
"The Imperial Physician Zhang who took the pulse of Concubine Yan...I always thought it was the concubine's mother...so...all these years...I...I have been chasing him..."

Xiao Moli bowed her head indifferently and did not speak.

"Fourth younger brother" Xiao Ziqi grabbed Xiao Moli's hand tremblingly, looked at the silent Luo Qingyan, with a trace of tenderness and reluctance in his eyes.

"Treat her well..." There was a clear and innocent smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes were clean and pure, like a newborn baby.

Luo Qingyan trembled, her long eyelashes drooped, her pink lips were tightly pursed, she didn't know what she was thinking.

Xiao Moli squeezed his hand tightly, "I will."

"Then I... I can leave with peace of mind..." He blinked, his smile was crisp and clear.

Looking at Luo Qingyan with her head down again, "Yanyan, you... you don't have to blame yourself or... feel guilty... this kind of ending... I am willing..." To die at the hands of the woman I love is not a kind of feeling. happiness.

Luo Qingyan's body trembled again, and her long eyelashes fluttered.

"Yanyan... Yanyan's dance is very... very beautiful...I will...will always remember..." There was a comfortable smile on the corner of his mouth.The scene in front of him slowly blurred, and he looked into the distance with wandering eyes.

In a trance, in the deep black night sky, arrow feathers pierced the sky and shot at his heart.The worried and anxious female voice rang in my ear.

"Be careful"

A white shadow swayed past, and the arrow feathers sank into her shoulder, and the blood instantly stained the white clothes red.Enchanting is like the other shore flower in hell, dazzling and dazzling.That soul-stirring scene deeply shocked his heart, and it was forever engraved in his mind, deep in his heart...

In a blood-red world, he closed his eyes peacefully, with a faint smile of relief on his face...

"Third Brother" Xiao Ziqiu let out a cry of pain as the hand fell limply.

"Third Brother..." Xiao Yuche and Xiao Junyi also had expressions of great pain on their faces.

The resplendent and resplendent hall was instantly filled with deep sorrow, and everyone's face was filled with deep pain.

—thunderbolt—thunderbolt—

Booming lightning and thunder hit the windows, howling winds blew wantonly, and the candlelight in the hall shook violently.After a while, the sky suddenly rained heavily.

It seems that God also knows the sadness in the hearts of this group of people, and is crying for such a fresh life...
