Slave to Queen: One Night Bride

Chapter 154 Self-Adjudication
Hua Rong said anxiously: "Your Majesty, you must not be discouraged. You should hand over this hairpin to the official family yourself."

Empress Xing smiled, holding the hairpin, her eyes gradually turned ashen.

Seeing that she was tired, Hua Rong helped her up: "Your Majesty, you can rest for a while, please relax, everything will be fine."

"Mrs. Yue, thank you very much! You saved me in two critical situations, and I can't repay you..."

"Don't worry, Ma'am, please rest assured."

Hua Rong helped her to lie down on the bed. In the cold night, she covered her with a rug like that of the Kingdom of Jin. However, as soon as the rug touched her body, she immediately brushed it away: "Take things away, don't..."

Her tone was too harsh, Hua Rong felt very uneasy, stood aside, waited until she closed her eyes, as if she had fallen asleep, then covered her with the felt blanket again, slowly closed the door and went out.

An hour later, Zhahe came back from the outside with a big bag of things, all cooked beef and mutton, and a big pot of boiling mastea.

Seeing Hua Rong standing at the door looking around, he said happily, "Little brother, are you hungry?"

Hua Rong shook his head.

He quickly put down his things, arranged them one by one, and poured two big bowls of boiling milk tea: "Brother, I'm waiting for someone to make the milk tea, so I'm late..."

Seeing his elation, Hua Rong felt a little guilty, and said in a low voice, "Zha He, I originally said that Empress Xing would be your wife, but... can you not touch her?"

..............................................................................

Zhahe opened his eyes wide, as if he didn't understand her words.

Hua Rong thought about it, and then said: "I mean, this...you, can you stop being a real husband and wife with her? In other words, you can't enter her room..."

Zhahe finally understood now, he was not interested in that skinny woman at all, and said happily: "It's okay. I married you for you, if you say you don't want to be a husband and wife, you won't be a husband and wife..."

Hua Rong heaved a sigh of relief, and took out another piece of silver to him: "Zhahe, thank you very much, in the future, I will marry a good woman for you."

"Little brother, no need..."

When the two were talking, Hua Rong suddenly felt a little uneasy, got up and said, "I'll get her to eat. Just wait for me."

"it is good."

Hua Rong got up and pushed open the door, the room was pitch black, deathly silent.

She came back with a weak lantern, and shouted as she walked, "Ma'am, it's time to eat..."

No one answered, she was stunned, and screamed: "Your Majesty..."

In front, a figure hanging upside down swayed. It turned out that Empress Xing actually tore the thin blanket on the bed and hanged herself.

Her screams startled Zhahe, and Zhahe ran in, the two of them ignored Empress Xing and untied Empress Xing together, only to see Empress Xing's face was blue, her eyes were wide open, she had already stopped breathing, and her whole body was cold.

Hua Rong sat on the ground in a daze, tears rolling down her face.

The life of a slave is poor, and I am ashamed of the love of the emperor!A golden hairpin, avenge me!

Empress Xing, when the opportunity to return to the south came, she resolutely put an end to her tortured body.

Hua Rong couldn't bear it any longer, and lay on top of her, crying loudly.

It was the first time Zhahe witnessed such a tragic situation, and he also stood aside in shock, before reaching out to help her: "Little brother, little brother..."

As soon as his hand touched Hua Rong's shoulder, Hua Rong suddenly raised his head and opened his hand like crazy: "Go away, you beasts, you devils, damned golden dogs, bandits, captives...you are better than devils!" And vicious..."

Zhahe didn't dare to say a word, just retracted his hand in a daze, and didn't dare to touch her again.

After a while, seeing her lying on Empress Xing, crying like hell, she couldn't help stretching out her hand to pull her: "Little brother, little brother, your condolences will change..."

Hua Rong wiped away her tears and stood up, covered Queen Xing with a big quilt, and sat on the chair blankly, motionless.Seeing that she was no longer angry or insulting him anymore, Zhahe felt a little desolate in his heart, and said cautiously: "Little brother, let me take care of it for you."

She didn't make a sound, Zhahe was about to reach out to uncover the cover, when she suddenly said sharply: "Stop!"

Zhahe took a step back in fright.

Before Empress Xing died, she didn't even want to cover the Jurchens with a blanket, so why would she let a Jurchens man bury her for her?
Zhahe saw that her face was still full of tears, and the deep hatred in her eyes was something he had never seen before.Although it was only a dozen days since he knew Hua Rong, when she was a "man", she was generous and bold, and when she was a woman, she was gentle, kind, beautiful and generous. He never knew that she had such eyes.

He was afraid in his heart, and he knew that she was like this because of the death of Empress Xing, and he vaguely understood that it was the Jurchen's joyful war to destroy the Song Dynasty that led to such a tragedy.

The war unexpectedly caused such a beautiful woman like Hua Rong to show such terrifying eyes.

Zhahe didn't dare to look her in the eyes, and took another step back, but he didn't know what to say, so he whispered: "Little brother... I, I have never been to Song Kingdom... I have never been to Song Kingdom to fight..."

Hua Rong ignored him, walked to the door, and whistled forcefully.

After a while, in the dark, Zhang Xian, Liu Qi and others came and hurriedly asked, "Is the Empress here?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Hua Rong's face covered with tears, and in a blink of an eye, he saw Empress Xing's body lying on the ground.

Both of them were miserable, shaking their heads, speechless.

Empress Xing's body was buried the next day. Although Zha He came forward, according to the customs of the Han people, he obeyed Hua Rong's instructions, found a piece of raw silk to wrap Empress Xing's body in, and buried her in the ground.

After the funeral was over, it was already dusk, and the Jurchens who were helping had already dispersed.

Zha He returned to the temporary hut, saw Hua Rong was about to go out, and whispered: "Little brother..."

Hua Rong's expression was very cold, and he said lightly: "Zhahe, I'm leaving."

"where are you going?"

She doesn't answer.

Zhahe suddenly realized that this beautiful woman used to help her marry Queen Xing by himself, but now that Queen Xing is dead, he will never talk to him again.

There was a panic in his heart, and he whispered: "Little brother, where are you going?"

She did not answer.

Zhahe couldn't bear it, and followed her step by step, his voice became softer: "Brother, I'm sorry..."

Hua Rong stopped.

"Little brother, I won't harm you, I really will never harm you, little brother..."

Hua Rong turned back, and said lightly: "Zhahe, thank you for helping me these days. I'm leaving..."

He was flustered, and suddenly realized that he would never see her again, so he hurriedly said, "Where are you going? Are you going back to Song Dynasty?"

"Not yet."

He breathed a sigh of relief: "Can I meet you again in the future?"

She said nothing indifferently, Zhang Xian and others were waiting for her in front, and when they saw her come out, the three of them walked forward.

Zhahe stood alone at the door, looking at the distant sky, had just gone through a funeral, and after these days of friendship, at this moment, Fang felt a kind of helplessness in life for the first time.

However, he couldn't express this feeling, and he didn't know the reason. He simply muttered to himself: "I haven't attacked Song State before, so why blame me?"

The mansion of Jin Wushu.

As soon as it fell into the night, there were lights and festoons, as if a happy event was being held.

Wang Junhua commanded the house full of servants to sweep and prepare delicacies, all of which were prepared according to the customs of the Southern Dynasty.

She didn't know who the fourth prince would invite to dinner tonight, but seeing the solemn order of the fourth prince, she didn't dare to neglect at all.She didn't know when, she had already been devoted to Jin Wushu, even if he asked her to kneel down and lick his toes, she would not hesitate to do so without hesitation.

What surprised her the most was that the fourth prince ordered to tidy up a courtyard, and the furnishings inside were all the customs of the Song Dynasty, purple screens, gray carpets, bright and clean windows, and a roomful of ancient books were displayed.

And in the closet, there are full boxes of silk embroidered clothes taken out of the spoils in Kaifeng.These clothes are all from the court, and they are the new clothes of the empress and concubine. Even Wang Junhua, the wife of the champion, has never seen such exquisite and luxurious clothes before.

She picked up one and couldn't help gesticulating on her chest for a while, but remembering how the fourth prince scolded her when she saw her wearing Hanfu that day, she didn't dare to do anything wrong, so she put it back.But I couldn't help but feel more and more jealous and resentful. Who wants to live in this place?

Could it be Yelu Guanyin?

But Yelu Guanyin is a Khitan?
Could it be Hua Rong?
But Hua Rong hasn't seen each other since the Willow Shooting Festival, and she even thought that she was detained by Zong Han together with Yu Wenxu and others.

She secretly said: "I hope God will bless you, it would be best if the eldest prince detains that bitch and never comes out again."

After tidying up everything, she saw a long red carpet rolled out at the door, and saw Jin Wushu walking out, she was even more surprised, because the fourth prince was actually wearing a Hanfu.

She had never seen Jin Wushu like this before, she smiled coquettishly, stepped forward to salute, and said softly: "Fourth Prince, everything is packed..."

"Okay, just wait for the distinguished guests to come to the door. You must be careful in serving you, and you must not be negligent." After he finished speaking, he added, "Tonight, you and Staff Officer Qin will accompany you."

She was overjoyed that she and Qin Hui could also accompany her?
The fourth prince treats guests, and he is also a guest?

You must know that there is a big difference between a guest and a maid. No matter how much you are favored, you are still a maid, but once you attend, your status will change.

Surprised and delighted, she said repeatedly: "I will never neglect the fourth prince's honored guest."

She agreed repeatedly, and then went to see the preparations in the kitchen, fearing that there would be a little bit of uncleanliness, so as not to make the fourth prince angry.

Jin Wushu has been pacing in the room, looking around, very contented.Suddenly there was an announcement at the door: "Mrs. Yue has arrived..."

He hurriedly greeted him, at the door, Hua Rong was standing, followed by Zhang Xian and Liu Qi.

He hated the name "Mrs. Yue", and even more hated Zhang Xian and Liu Qi, because when he saw them, he always thought of Yue Pengju, as if Yue Pengju was standing beside him.

He was about to open his mouth to chase the two away, but he was startled, only to see Hua Rong's eyes were red and swollen, and a kind of angry flame was burning in his eyes.Why is Hua Rong crying?And why are you angry?According to his information, Zong Han only put Yu Wenxu and others under house arrest, and there was no other bad news. Even after the agreement and Zong Wang's repeated mediation, Song Huizong and others still had the hope of returning to the south. Shouldn't she be happy?

Hua Rong forcibly suppressed the flame of anger in his heart, and said lightly, "Why is the fourth prince entertaining?"

He forced a laugh, but still couldn't continue to be polite, and whispered: "Hua Rong, what's wrong?"

Hua Rong didn't answer, just walked in.

As soon as he sat down, he saw a tall woman in Luoru come in. She has a plump body and a long and beautiful face. She looks like the Avalokitesvara in the temples of the Liao Dynasty. It is the Yelu Avalokitesvara who is known as the most beautiful woman.
