Rebirth of a famous family: Mala's first wife

Chapter 183 Winning and Losing ([-])

The twelfth lunar month of the tenth year of Yanxi is the season when a drop of water turns into ice.

On the ninth day of the lunar new year, the Dasheng Northern Expeditionary Army, which returned triumphantly, stopped fifty miles away from the capital.On the open ground, clusters of brightly colored flags fluttered in the wind.Coach Huan Peng gave an order, and the army played triumphantly.The generals of the three armies headed by Huan Peng, Gao Yang Bo, and Gao Yang Qi, led five thousand elite soldiers with golden helmets and angry horses, and rushed to the imperial city at full speed.

Under the gate of the city, crowds of people waiting for labor with delicious food and wine had already crowded both sides of the official road, and everyone's faces were filled with joy.Laughter and admiration filled my ears, which was a scene of prosperity and peace.

Emperor Yanxi, dressed in a bright crown, stood high on the tower, smiling and looking into the distance.Beside him, two beauties in palace costumes stood on one left and one on the right.One is the queen dressed in vermilion, and the other is Rong Guifei dressed in purple.

Concubine Rong's gentle face was full of joy, and she looked at Emperor Yanxi with a smile from time to time.

The queen's eyes were fixed on the front, her face was stiff, and her hands in her sleeves were clenched tightly.Her cheeks were much thinner, and two deep nasolabial folds appeared at the corners of her mouth.

At this moment, the Queen's heart was full of resentment.On such a grand occasion today, the lowly maid was proud of her, but she seemed like a superfluous person.Just because, my Qi'er lost!The one who won was Gao Yangbo, the son of that lowly maidservant.

What is hateful is that the emperor, knowing that his heart is pierced by a knife, still forces himself and Qi'er to act in this play together.In the scenery of others, it becomes a ridiculous foil.

In front of her eyes, the bloody scene appeared again.

On that day, Cui Duo, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, and Cao Ren, Minister of Dali Temple, led people to arrest her, and searched her Jingren Palace again.

She sat idly, watching with cold eyes. In fact, she was not nervous at all, and even looked forward to it.

As she wished, they found several secret letters in her secret jade box.

These few letters are extremely precious, and they are the most important gains from Changxin Palace for Qi Luo, whom she sent to lurk beside Concubine Rong.

At that time, she thought with emotion that Qi Luo was a very useful pawn, but unfortunately, in order not to implicate her master, she chose to commit suicide.But Lan Yan's lowly maid was different.Lan Yan was indeed poisoned to death by herself because she knew too much and became more and more self-assertive.However, the expert Cui Duo invited from nowhere actually found out such a colorless and odorless poison!Even if Lan Yan, that lowly servant girl, died, she would still drag herself down...

In the past two years, his status in the eyes of the emperor has plummeted.The old men Cui Duo and Cao Ren also swept away the respect they had in the past years, and they were very arrogant in her Jingren Palace.

She told herself to endure.Whoever laughs last will laugh the best!
Cui Duo unfolded the secret letters in front of her, and after a few glances, his face turned pale with shock.He pulled Cao Ren and muttered a few words, Cao Ren also changed his expression, after reading the secret letter with his own eyes, they invited the emperor together.

She was still thinking triumphantly at that time, Gao Yangbo, this time you are doomed!
After reading the secret letter, the emperor was so angry that his hands were shaking.Throwing the secret letter directly on her face, pointing at her nose and cursing angrily, "Gao Zitong, you have raised a good son! Sinister! I will kill this evildoer!"

"The emperor calms down, the emperor calms down!" Cui Duo and Cao Ren knelt down to persuade them.

She was completely bewildered.The secret letter was clearly written by Gao Yangbo.She purposely waited to be discovered by them, just to see what would happen to Concubine Rong and Gao Yangbo, that bitch mother and son!
However, when she slowly unfolded the secret letter that she had read no less than ten times, she only felt a "boom" in her head, and all the blood in her body rushed to the top of her head.

In front of my eyes, it is clear, unexpectedly, why it is Qi'er's handwriting!

She can be sure that no one has touched this jade box.The location of the jade box is extremely secret, only she knows it.Even during the search just now, Cui Duo and Cao Ren would not have been able to find out if she hadn't intentionally exposed her flaws.

If no one changed it secretly, then how did Qi'er's handwriting clearly appear on it? !
She was shocked and hated in her heart, but she couldn't figure out which link went wrong.The hot blood slowly receded from the top of the head, turning into a bone-chilling ice cold.It was as if all the winter snow had fallen on her alone.Looking at the cold and merciless eyes of the emperor, she realized very clearly that Qi'er's life, her life, was over.

But she was still struggling to die, and rushed to hug the emperor's thigh like crazy, "Your majesty, your majesty, please be careful! These letters were clearly written by the fourth son of the emperor, Gao Yangbo! The concubine has seen it with her own eyes. You can recite every word! Please trust Chenqie, this is completely deliberate design by Gao Yangbo! He must have used a strange ink, and in just a few days, he was able to write The characters in the words disappeared, and the fake Qi'er's handwriting emerged!"

The emperor shook her hand away angrily, with unprecedented contempt in his eyes, "Gao Zitong, what other ways do you have to slander and frame, use them together! Concubine De, Concubine Rong, Bo'er, you will not let anyone go!" Do you think I’m a dead person? I said long ago that this is the last chance I’ve given before! It’s a pity that you still don’t want to repent, you ruined my Qi’er, and you also ruined yourself!!”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Please listen to my concubine's explanation!" she cried unwillingly while she was shedding tears.

"Come here, pass on my oral order to imprison Gao Zitong in Jingren Palace. He will only be provided with coarse food and clear water every day, and no one will serve him close to him!" The man who had been with her for more than twenty years threw down this ruthless sentence. The words, flung his sleeves away.

After that, Jingren Palace fell into a deathly silence.She stood up unsteadily, and walked in the empty hall, laughing loudly.Those exquisite and gorgeous furnishings, the brocades as beautiful as haze, all opened their mouths wide, laughing at her failure and embarrassment.She tore them all off, fell to the ground, and stomped on them like hell.

She decided to go on a hunger strike.In Jingren Palace, he didn't eat or drink, and knocked all the fresh water and coarse grains to the ground.

When she finally passed out as she wished, she heard the panicked cries of the palace guards in secret.

She smiled smugly.

When she woke up again, she saw the queen mother.

The empress dowager's motherly demeanor is still the same, and her compassionate expression is still the same.She sighed faintly, "Queen, do you really want to die on a hunger strike? The Ai family is the emperor's mother and knows the emperor's temperament. If you continue to seek death, no one will save you."

"Mother, please read that I have served you wholeheartedly for more than ten years, save my son, save Qi'er!" She lifted her haggard face, fell at the queen mother's feet, and wept.

The queen mother just shook her head, "The Ai family can't help you."
