Long Song Fenghua: The Demon Queen Confused the King's Heart

Chapter 426 Invite yourself into the Buddhist hall

"Everyone go out." The queen glanced at the people around her, and pressed her temples hard.

The imperial physician looked at each other, "My lady's body..."

"I asked you to go out, don't you understand!?"

"Yes Yes……"

Several imperial doctors hurriedly resigned, and when there was no one in the room except their mother and daughter, the queen said in a deep voice, "Kill him? I'm saving him! I'm saving you too!"

"Don't do this, do you think your father can let us go!? The three of us, I'm afraid all of us will die today!"

Qi Youran's eyes were already red from crying, "But Queen Mother, once Brother Huang is gone, Brother Seventh Emperor wants us to die, it's not easy!"

"It's not that simple! With Bengong here, how can he easily get his wish!? Why did you plan everything you did when you were Bengong!?" With a hard look at Qi Youran, the queen said fiercely, "If you have time to cry, Why don't you think about the way ahead for Ben Gong!"

Qi Youran was shocked, she didn't dare to cry anymore, she forced back her tears, "Yes, queen mother."

"You stay in the palace tonight, and tomorrow morning, accompany me to see your father."

"Then, the emperor's..."

Qi Youran wanted to ask what should be done with Qi Youyi's body, but when she met the queen's cold glance, she immediately shut her mouth and remained silent.But in her heart she was always worried. Her future was undoubtedly bound up with Qi Youyi. Once Qi Youyi died, would she really have anything to look forward to tomorrow?
In her anxiety, the night of Shangyuan Festival passed like this.

Early the next morning, the queen's confidant brought some things, and his face was a little ugly, "I want to report to the empress, the things that the empress wants have already been brought by people outside the palace."

Curious about what it was, Qi Youran stepped forward to look, and was startled, the bundle was stained with blood, and she didn't know what was inside, and there was a smell of blood.

"Mother, what is this?"

"Bring it, we'll go see your father."

The queen's face seemed to be covered with ice, she grabbed the bag without hesitation, and signaled Qi Youran to go to the emperor with her.

Although the prince who made a mistake died, according to the rules, the princes who got the news have already returned to the palace one after another.According to the custom, one must stay in the palace for a full month before leaving.

Logically speaking, as an outsider, Mu Changge shouldn't have stayed in the palace, because of Qi Jinzhi's pleading, she made an exception to stay by her side.

But at this moment, in the emperor's bedroom, Qi Jinzhi was at the desk, listening intently to the emperor's teachings, while Mu Changge was quietly waiting behind him without saying a word.

Hearing footsteps outside, Qi Jinzhi secretly glanced at Mu Changge, and nodded slightly at her.

The moment the two of them looked at each other, the person outside the door had already walked in, with an indescribable solemnity or sadness on his face.

"Changge has met the empress."

Mu Changge leaned over and saluted politely, but the queen passed her straight away, as if she hadn't seen her at all, and strode up to the emperor with tears in her eyelashes.

The queen held the bundle in her hands, her voice choked up, "Even if he has made thousands of mistakes, he is still the emperor's flesh and blood. This last look, you, the emperor father, should give him a favor."

In an instant, the expression on the emperor's face became extremely complicated, and after a long while, he motioned for the father-in-law beside him to come over and open the bag.

As soon as he opened it, a strong smell of blood immediately filled the room, and what was in the bag was exactly what Qi Youyi was wearing yesterday.

But now, they were already covered with traces of wild dogs biting and gnawing, and they were almost broken into strips of cloth. If you look closely, there are still bits of meat on them.The hosta that fixed the hair bundle was also broken into two sections, and a mass of hair was wrapped around the hosta with a large piece of scalp that had not been swallowed by the wild dog.

They are silent, but they tell the people in front of them clearly what their owners have just experienced.

The emperor is not a man with a hard heart, not to mention that it was his own son who was torn to pieces just now, he was speechless for a while, only his slightly aged lips were trembling with heartache.

After a while, the emperor suppressed the heartache again and forced himself to harden his heart, "Empress, you brought these to me to accuse me of failing?"

"The concubine didn't dare, let alone the intention. The concubine just thought, even if the emperor deserved it, he is also the concubine and the emperor's flesh and blood. The mistakes he committed have now been punished, the concubine I just want to ask the emperor to give him a tomb of clothes."

"Even if the mistakes he made prevented him from entering the imperial mausoleum, the concubine also wanted him to have a place where people could worship and worship, so that he wouldn't be alone on the road to Huangquan, lonely and helpless!"

There was another heartache in the emperor's eyes, and he waved his palm, "Yes!"

"The concubine waits for the emperor to thank the emperor!" The queen hugged the bloody clothes left by Qi Youyi, knelt down, and bowed to the emperor with the prince's etiquette, then slowly shed her tears and got up slowly.

"The Seventh Prince is here too. Presumably the emperor has already made plans when he will appoint a new crown prince. Now in the emperor's heart, there must be a gap between the courtiers and concubines. The ministers and concubines have indeed committed unforgivable mistakes before. In order to make the emperor feel at ease, and also to let the seventh prince succeed to the throne with peace of mind, the concubine invites himself to bring the eighth princess to live in the Buddhist hall of the harem, and never take another step in this life."

The queen said every word and every word with incomparable resoluteness. From her calm tone, there was no hint of anger.

Qi Youran who was at the side was stunned for a moment, and took a deep breath, "Mother!? My son, don't go to the Buddhist hall!"

Well done, why go to the Buddha Hall! ?If they don't step out of the Buddhist hall in this life, what's the difference with their mother and daughter living in the cold palace! ?

This is what the queen mother thought! ?Just use evasion as an excuse to avoid Qi Jinzhi and the others! ?

Mu Changge glanced at Qi Jinzhi, Qi Jinzhi immediately understood, put on a very sincere look, and persuaded: "Mother, life in the Buddhist hall is hard, if mother wants to pray for the emperor's brother, it's all right to stay here temporarily. , I won’t leave the Buddhist hall in this life, but I still have to bring the Eighth Emperor’s sister with me, isn’t it...too extreme?”

The emperor didn't say a word, and looked at the queen's expression, but he was obviously suspicious.

The queen shook her head, "In order to help the prince win the throne, I have taught him too many things that I shouldn't have taught him. If I hadn't taught him those things, he would not have come to where he is today."

"I want to live in the Buddhist hall to eliminate his karma, and to atone for my own sins. As for Youran, she must go!"

Speaking of this, the Queen's tone sank, "Don't think that I don't know, until now, you still have the idea of ​​avenging your imperial brother. But your imperial brother is doing it on his own, it's no wonder your seventh imperial brother My head! If Bengong went to the Buddhist hall by himself and left you outside, you will definitely be confused for a while and make irreparable mistakes!"

"My son won't!" Qi Youran was so stunned that he couldn't even speak, "I will never do anything again, please don't let my mother stay in the Buddhist hall for the rest of my life! My son, my son I don’t want the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha to be alone for the rest of my life!”

"If you don't go, you have to go." The queen gave her a cold look, then turned to face the emperor, and there was already a trace of inexhaustible oldness in her voice.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to doubt anything. This decision of my concubine is sincere. If I continue to stay outside and let my concubine see that the position that should belong to the emperor is taken by someone else, my concubine will definitely find it hard to let go. What will be done, even I can’t guarantee it.”

"Bringing Youran to live in the Buddhist hall is the greatest determination and redemption of the concubine. It's just that in the future, the concubine will no longer be able to take care of the emperor. The emperor also takes good care of himself, and the concubine has resigned."

After finishing speaking, the queen no longer showed any nostalgia, grabbed Qi Youran's wrist, and strode out of the hall.

Staring at the back of the queen leaving, the emperor's eyes were filled with mixed feelings, he shook his head, as if he wanted to feel something, but he felt dizzy for a while, fortunately, Qi Jinzhi supported him, so he didn't fall to the ground.

"Father, do you want to invite the imperial physician?" Qi Jinzhi asked worriedly.

"There's no need to see the imperial physician." The emperor waved his hand, "I have been suffering from dizziness for no reason since a few days ago. I asked the imperial physician to see him, but he couldn't say anything. It must be because I am getting old and my bones will inevitably decline. .”

Glancing at Qi Jinzhi, the emperor sighed softly, and swallowed everything he wanted to say, "You should go back first, and let me be alone."

"My son retire."

Carefully helping the emperor back to the seat, Qi Jinzhi and the two also quietly exited the room.

The queen said that she wanted to live in the Buddhist hall. It was not a joke. On the same day, she brought Qi Youran who was reluctant to live in the Buddhist hall, and set up guards. No matter what Qi Youran said or did, she would never allow it. Release her from the temple.

Ever since they moved in, for many days in a row, they have never left a single step.

"Your servants have inquired clearly. The queen and the eighth princess are living the life of ascetic monks in the Buddhist hall. They worship day and night, and the daily meals are only one porridge and one dish. Apart from contacting the nuns who deliver meals, There will be no one else."

The sun was just right that day, and while waiting outside the imperial study, Suyu whispered this to Mu Changge.

"Are you really not even touching people?" Mu Changge asked, glancing at the closed door from time to time.They had all been waiting outside for half an hour, during which time no one else came in or out except for the eunuch who delivered the medicine.

Suyu responded in a low voice: "It is true that I have never been in contact with other people. It seems that the death of the prince this time has dealt a great blow to the empress. Otherwise, how could the empress who has always been pampered and pampered willingly live in the Buddhist hall?"

Mu Changge just smiled lowly, "You said it all, it just 'looks'."

He could hear that there was something in her words, but Suyu couldn't understand what she wanted to say, "Miss, why can't this maid not understand?"

"I'm just talking casually. Whether it's true or not, it won't be long before the truth will naturally come to light."
