Rebirth after waste

Chapter 92

The emperor turned his head away, not wanting to take another look at the limp woman on the ground, but unexpectedly, his eyes just bumped into a painting and calligraphy hanging on the wall.

It was the New Year of the first year of Yongjia, and the Empress Dowager and Gu Yunxian made it together.

The Empress Dowager was good at Danqing, and painted white snow and red plums with her own hands, while Gu Yunxian inscribed a four-line poem about plums with a beautiful and thin stroke of hairpin flower in lower script.

At that time, he used to stand by the side, admiring with a smile.

Closing his eyes tiredly, he smiled bleakly, "The queen mother was not killed by you, but by us together. I was really a son of man in vain, and I actually lured wolves into the house and caused a catastrophe..."

There was deathly silence in the hall.

After a long time, he slowly turned around and looked down at her with no emotion in his eyes, "I still have one last question to ask you.

"How much does this matter have to do with Ning Wang Ji Pei?"

Ning Wang Ji Pei?

Gu Yunxian's heart skipped a beat, and he felt that he was going to hear something great soon.

Jing Fushu was silent for a moment, "It has nothing to do with him, it's all done by my concubine alone."

"You don't need to cover up for him." The emperor sneered, "If it wasn't for him to help you behind the scenes, you alone might not be able to collude with Zhang Xian."

Seeing that Jing Fushu was silent, he continued: "I have checked, and when King Ning was in Yudu, he had a very good personal relationship with Zhang Xian, and he once gave his family a life-saving grace. So this time, it should be him. Zhang Xian who helped you win over. Otherwise, I believe that Zhang Xian would not be willing to take such a big risk and come to gamble with you.

"I thought that after so many years, King Ning should let go of his former hatred for his mother, but he never thought that he would harbor evil intentions to such an extent. Anyway, since you are like-minded, I will give you a chance to walk together on the road to hell... "

"No! He was really forced by me!" Jing Fushu suddenly broke free from her ashen face, and explained eagerly, "He didn't want to murder the Queen Mother. It was me, and I told him that even if he didn't help I, I will also do it. If it is found out in the end, it is my fate. He had no choice but to contact Zhang Xian for me. All the crimes are on me alone. Please forgive King Ning! "

"What do you think you are! Did your life pay for my mother's life!" The emperor's barely maintained calmness disappeared again, and his tone was extremely sharp and indifferent, "No, not enough. All those involved in this matter, There will be a price to pay for everything. I will not let any one go."

Jing Fushu bit her lips tightly with her teeth, and there were bloodshots.

The emperor walked slowly to the tall table beside him, where a dagger was offered on a golden nanmu shelf.Gu Yunxian remembered that the Empress Dowager had told her that this dagger was left behind by Empress Duanyi when she lived in Changle Palace.

The emperor took the dagger from the rack and drew it out of its sheath with a blank expression.

The knife is an excellent knife, the blade is white and cold, and the hair will break if you blow it.

Jing Fushu looked at his movements and smiled lightly, "That's fine. I have no regrets if I can die in front of you."

The emperor ignored her.

A cold light flashed, and the emperor raised his right hand, but instead of throwing the dagger to her as she expected, he stabbed hard into his left arm!

Jing Fushu opened her eyes wide in horror, and let out a short scream from her throat.

She almost crawled to his side, stood up tremblingly, and wanted to check his injuries, "Your Majesty, why are you doing this? You hate me, so you kill me! Why do you want to hurt yourself?"

The dagger pierced too deeply, and the bright red blood rushed out, staining their clothes red.

The emperor's face was pale, "I didn't know the person, and my mother died. Such a big mistake is irreparable. I shouldn't have kept this life. If it wasn't for the community's trust, I would have gone to the Nine Springs to plead guilty to my mother! "

After speaking, he endured the severe pain and pulled out the dagger, throwing it to the ground.

Without the obstruction of the dagger, the blood flowed faster and faster.Gu Yunxian looked at the deep wound, and knew in his heart that if he didn't treat it, this arm might be useless.

But Jing Fushu didn't seem to realize this.She stared blankly at his wound, then looked at his face, her tone was distressed and helpless, "Is this how you punish me? You know that I care about you so much, but you do this in front of my face." To myself..."

"Your care makes me sick." The emperor's tone was very flat, as if the words had already taken root in his heart, and it was only when he said them so naturally, "I only have one wish now, that is, never to meet you in this life."

Jing Fushu stared at him in a daze for a long time, and then let out a mischievous laugh out of madness, "Yeah... It's good that we didn't meet... It's good that we didn't meet...."

She just smiled for a while, and her eyes suddenly became firm.Before Gu Yunxian could react, she saw that she had picked up the dagger on the ground and pressed it against her chest.

The emperor's expression remained unchanged, and he looked at her quietly.

"The concubine is asking for a bargain with His Majesty, so I'm going." Jing Fushu smiled and said, "The concubine knows that your majesty must think it's too cheap to die like this. You may want to cut the concubine into pieces. But this world is too gloomy and terrifying, and I can't wait for a moment. Therefore, please forgive me for the last disobedience. As for after I die, Your Majesty will whip the corpse of my concubine, or shatter my bones and ashes. Your heart."

Glancing at him one last time, she used her right hand forcefully, and Queen Duanyi's dagger pierced deeply into her chest, and quickly dyed a bright red color on the plain dress.

Gu Yunxian's eyes were also covered by the blood red, and the surrounding scenery was covered in it, and he couldn't see anything clearly...

She opened her eyes.

She was sleeping on the gum bed of Hanzhang Hall, with an autumn green curtain above her head, and gilded and carved smoked balls dangling, making her dizzy for a while.

She broke free from that terrible dream.

After taking a deep breath, she realized that her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and her whole body was also icy cold.

All of this was due to that dream, which really shocked her too much.

It turned out that in the last life, Jing Fushu's affairs were exposed not long after his death.She worked so hard and suffered so many resignations, but in the end she couldn't get the man she longed for.Not only that, but she also made him hate her to the bone and cost him his life.

The reincarnation of heaven, this is retribution.

This thought just flashed, as if cold water had been poured on her head, another thought suddenly came to her mind.

If in the last life, Xue Changsong was able to detect the problem within a few days of the queen mother's death, why did he not detect it this time?Even after careful investigation, he still found nothing.

What is wrong with this?
The words of Liu Shanggong just now sounded in my ears again, "You suspect that Zhen Guiji murdered the Empress Dowager, but the root of your suspicion is just because you had a dream. Apart from that, there is no basis for it. In fact, The servant has been speculating a long time ago whether such a thing will not exist at all..."

Maybe, she's right.

Jing Fushu's murder of the Queen Mother was a matter of the previous life.After I had that dream more than a year ago, I firmly believed that she would do this again in this life.

But she has been ignoring one point, that is to live a new life, and many things have changed.For example, this time, Xing Wan's child was not aborted, nor was she executed.

So is it possible that Jing Fushu didn't poison the Queen Mother?
She tried her best to calm herself down and analyzed carefully in her heart. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that there were many doubts that she had ignored before.

In the previous life, she was the deposed empress who made a big mistake, and the empress dowager was furious because of this, and His Majesty was also busy dealing with Xing Wan's loss of her son.In this chaotic situation, Changle Palace's vigilance will naturally be relaxed, and it will be much easier for Jing Fushu to poison the Queen Mother.And after the queen mother passed away, Zhang Xian was able to logically blame her for the matter, saying that the queen mother was pissed to death, which caused the emperor to vent his anger on her.

But this life is different.

Not only did she not fall into her trap, she even had the hope of becoming a queen again.Everywhere in Changle Palace is orderly, without a trace of panic.Under such circumstances, Jing Fushu's chances of tampering with the Queen Mother's meal were really slim.

Could it be that this time the Empress Dowager really died due to excessive mental exhaustion, as the imperial doctor said?

She felt a pain in the head, and a thousand threads were tangled together, and she wished she could cut it open.

Liu Shanggong heard her muffled hum from outside, hurriedly opened the gauze curtain to come in, and asked with concern: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Gu Yunxian grabbed her hand, "You go to the imperial medical office now and send Xue Changsong to come! Immediately. Immediately."

After two cups of tea, Xue Changsong knelt and sat in the Hanzhang Hall, facing the dignified Gu Yunxian.

"Bengong invites Master Xue to come here at this moment, because I want to ask for the last time, is there still no result for what I asked you to do a few months ago?" Gu Yunxian looked calm, but his heart was tense.

Xue Changsong's expression was slightly apologetic, "Of course. I didn't find anything."

Unexpected result.

She took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Then, may I ask my lord, is there any Aconitum mixed with the medicine that the Empress Dowager took during her lifetime?"

Xue Changsong was a little surprised when he heard the words, "It turns out that the empress is also familiar with the prescriptions of the Queen Mother." Nodding, "Indeed. Aconitum can dispel cold and relieve pain, which is good for the Queen Mother's body. But..."

"But what?" Gu Yunxian looked at him intently.

"However, since January of the third year of Yongjia, the Queen Mother's condition has changed, and the pain is no longer so obvious. In addition, Aconitum aconiti is also slightly poisonous, and it is useless to take it for a long time. Therefore, after discussing with the ministers, I removed it from the prescription. .”

Gu Yunxian never expected that he would give her such an answer, and was stunned for a moment.

Seeing this, Xue Changsong felt a little strange, and asked tentatively, "Your Majesty?"

Gu Yunxian tried his best to control himself, and said in a calm tone: "So, in the two months before the Queen Mother passed away, she never took Aconitum aconitum at all?"
