A happy event in a fertile field: the black-bellied husband is as beautiful as a flower

Chapter 920 He Has Emotional Fluctuations

Until the end, there was no more sound from the well.There are only rippling ripples left on the water surface, which also returns to calm circle after circle.

The queen didn't look at it, she took a deep breath, looked at the faint blood stains on the ground, and said, "Treat the ground."

The eunuch next to him bowed and said "yes".

The queen left here with the maids and mothers.

***
Xie Chuying's body was not found until two days later.

When Eunuch Huang came into the study, he saw that the emperor was reviewing the memorial, so he hesitated to speak.

The emperor looked up at him with questioning eyes.

Eunuch Huang knew that he had disturbed the emperor, if he didn't tell the reason, it would be because he was overstepping the rules and losing his sense of proportion.

And he has been with the emperor for so many years, the emperor also knows that there must be something wrong with his reaction.

So Eunuch Huang had no choice but to report the truth: "Just now I heard the report from the harem that Concubine Ying... drowned in the deep well."

The emperor was very surprised, and after a while he said in a daze, "Did you drown?"

Eunuch Huang said: "Exactly, one dead body and two lives."

The emperor continued to bury his head in reviewing the memorial.Eunuch Huang served quietly by his side.

After he finished approving all the memorials, he got up and said, "Go and have a look."

When the emperor went to Concubine Ying's palace, Xie Chuying's body was being fished out of the well in the backyard and stopped on the palace.

The white cloth covered it, but it couldn't hide the high bulging belly.

The queen is already in the palace, with a sad face.

After the emperor entered the palace, he stopped beside the corpse, looked down, looked uncertain, and said for a moment: "Open it and have a look."

The eunuchs didn't dare to show the emperor the body that had been soaked in the well for two days, what would happen if the emperor was shocked.

Eunuch Huang also hesitated and wanted to persuade him.

The queen then said: "Your majesty, Chu Ying would not want the emperor to see her in this state."

The emperor said: "Uncover it for me."

The queen's expression changed imperceptibly, but she still asked the eunuch to remove the white cloth.

The scene under the white cloth slowly appeared in front of the emperor's eyes inch by inch.

Xie Chuying's skin had already turned white and swollen from the blisters, leaving only a faint trace of the delicate and beautiful form it once was.The clothes and hair on his body were all wet, and the big belly stood upright quietly.

One dead body and two lives seemed too tragic.

After a long time, the emperor asked, "What's going on?"

All the eunuchs in Yingfei Palace knelt down, weeping and crying: "The palace was lively two days ago, and the empress sent the servants out to watch the excitement. Who would have thought that after the servants came back, they could not find the empress everywhere, and finally they were in the well. ... found the empress..."

There was no joy or anger in the emperor's expression.

The queen has been married to him for many years, and for a while she couldn't understand him.

In the end the emperor said: "You wait for the servant master to be unfavorable, and you only report the matter after two days. Come here and pull these slaves down and kill them with sticks."

The eunuchs begged for mercy one after another in the hall.

The queen moved her mouth, but she still didn't say a word after all.

The eunuchs were all executed with sticks, but there are still many maids in the palace.

The maids knelt outside the hall and shivered.

The emperor glanced at them, and said: "Bury Concubine Ying in the imperial tomb, and all the rest of the palace will be buried with her."

Some of the maids collapsed to the ground on the spot.

The emperor didn't stay long, and after giving these two orders, he left here.

Afterwards, the queen also came out from Yingfei Palace, and her face, which was always flattered by favor or humiliation, was rarely pale.

Until she sat in her bedroom, she still couldn't recover.

She thought that he didn't want Xie Chuying to give birth to a child, even if Xie Chuying suddenly fell into a well and died, he would not be moved.

But when he insisted on seeing Xie Chuying's appearance after death, the queen understood that he had emotional fluctuations.

She always thought that the reason why the emperor favored Xie Chuying was that he was greedy for her youthful beauty.But suddenly she discovered that it seemed to be more than that.

The emperor suppressed his anger and dealt with all the palace people in the whole palace.Those palace people were all sent by the queen, of course he knew.So although he didn't say it clearly, he gave her a heavy warning.

The queen was twisting the brocade cloth at the corner of the table with her fingers, her expression was gloomy.For so many years, she had no love between her husband and the emperor, but she never expected that a Xie Chuying would successfully insert her foot in the end.

The queen suddenly understood that if Xie Chuying hadn't died, the emperor planned to make an exception and let her give birth to the child.

Thinking of this, the queen smiled miserably.Then he lowered his head and flipped the armor on his finger nonchalantly.

She thought, fortunately she acted quickly enough, otherwise, leaving Xie Chuying behind might really be a disaster in the future.

The queen leaned lazily on the soft pillow, and murmured softly: "To receive such favor from the emperor, your death is worth it."

***
Although the imperial court quelled the rebellion by King Ping, it still consumed a lot.

The emperor first experienced an assassination, and then saw Xie Chuying's death with his own eyes. It was a victory in suppressing the rebellion, and there was not much joy left for the emperor.

Hearing the emperor's repeated sighs, Eunuch Huang seemed to have grown older all of a sudden.

The emperor finished dealing with the state affairs at night, subconsciously where he was going, but before he could speak, he remembered that the palace had changed, so he gave up the idea of ​​going to the harem.

For more than a month, the emperor never went to the harem.Even the days when I went to the Queen's Palace three times a month were stopped.

When Eunuch Huang saw this, he was also worried, and persuaded: "Your Majesty, why don't you choose a day for the draft. The young and beautiful women in the world..."

Before he finished speaking, the emperor glanced at him, and he quickly apologized: "This old slave made a mistake."

Then the emperor suddenly said: "Among my princes, who do you think is worthy of a big job?"

As soon as these words came out, Eunuch Huang quickly knelt down and said, "I don't dare to talk about important national affairs."

Once the emperor asked, he was moved to set up the crown prince.

After being assassinated before and finally saving his life, the emperor began to think about this issue.It's just that I was busy with business later, and I haven't been able to take care of it.

Now the emperor feels that it is time to put the matter of establishing a reserve on the agenda.

The emperor's tone was revealed intentionally or unintentionally, and the princes and the ministers behind them began to make preparations.

***
Meng Yan originally thought that King Ping's rebellion would cause the emperor to send Yin Heng to suppress the rebellion.This may be a good opportunity for the Wangfu family to withdraw.

However, the emperor asked Yin Heng to stay in the capital, and instead sent General Ming to lead his army.

But Meng Yan still told Xu Shenfang to step up preparations.Itinerary and route, to ensure foolproof, it will take some time.

After Xu Shenfang was safe, Meng Yan decided to send Xia and her two children out of the capital first.

Neither Meng Yan nor Yin Heng could leave Beijing, so Xu Shenfang had to take care of them outside Beijing.

In the twinkling of an eye, Meng Yan fixed the itinerary and date for Xia and the two to leave Beijing.
