Chapter 1042 The most cruel thing is to gouge out the heart!
"Yes, Your Majesty." Manager Yi responded quickly, quickly opened the door to the bedroom, pressed it somewhere under the bed, took out a small box, and quickly delivered it to the Emperor.
The emperor opened it himself and saw that there were a hundred sticks of incense wrapped in oil paper in the box...
The imperial concubine could no longer hold on and sat on the ground, her face ashen.
Manager Yi opened the palace door again and waved in one direction. Immediately, two guards came over dragging an old lady with gray hair.
The old grandma was dressed very decently, and she even had a gold hairpin in her hair, which showed that she was highly valued by the imperial concubine.
But at this moment, she was being held by the guards like a dead dog. Her face was still trembling, and her eyes were fierce, as if she was unconvinced.
"Your Majesty, the imperial concubine has a deep love for you and serves you with all her heart. You can't treat her like this just because of someone's false accusation! The imperial concubine must have been unjustly accused!"
The emperor laughed angrily, "Yes, she really does her best to serve me!"
After saying that, he threw the box directly in front of her and cursed, "That's how she serves me!"
The old nanny glanced at the box, and her bones immediately softened. She looked at the imperial concubine in horror, wondering how she was exposed.
You must know that she personally helped the concubine organize this matter, and there was absolutely no mistake!
Mr. Yi was afraid that they would make the emperor angry again. After all, the emperor was still drinking medicine before coming here.
At this moment, he stepped forward and said, "My Lady, as early as a long time ago, everything in Ronghua Palace was under surveillance. Where did the materials for making incense come from and whose hands passed through them? Chu.
"Don't think about excuses, just confess quickly and ask the emperor to deal with you leniently."
The imperial concubine was silent, her fingers clasping the cracks of the bricks fiercely, and her ears turned red at the sight. She didn't know whether she was angry or anxious.
After a long while, when she raised her head, her face had returned to calmness.
She raised her hands, arranged her hair, stood up and smoothed out the wrinkles on her skirt, and then sat on the chair opposite the emperor.
"Since the emperor knows everything, then I won't have to worry about it."
The emperor snorted coldly, "It has been like this for a long time. It saves me the embarrassment just now. The dignified concubine looks like a shrew in the market. What a shame!"
After saying that, he waved his hand, and Manager Yi immediately asked the guards to **** the old woman down.
Perhaps she still wanted to speak, but the guard quickly removed her jaw. She could only drool and make a sound in her throat, and she disappeared at the door with a face full of reluctance.
At that moment, only the emperor, the concubine, and Manager Yi were left in the room.
In order to prevent the imperial concubine from making any changes, Manager Yi stood behind the emperor.
The imperial concubine knew that she would not be able to escape the death penalty today, so she unexpectedly relaxed. She fiddled with the red gold and gem-set nail polish and asked casually, "When did the emperor discover that he was poisoned? If my concubine guessed correctly, it should be the third princess who had a night terror. times?
“I know that those two dead girls will do bad things, and I have always been on guard against them. Unfortunately, there is no way to get rid of them.
"Especially the girl from the Li family. The third princess was originally extremely stupid and it was too easy to scheme. But after the girl from the Li family entered the palace, she was taught a lesson! Well, good luck to her!"
The emperor suppressed his anger and responded, "Speaking of which, it's also your fault for being greedy. You gave too much medicine. You asked me to come to your palace every day, otherwise I wouldn't be able to find out.
"I'm afraid that one day I die, I don't know if it was the person next to me who did it. However, I treat you well and love you very much, and everyone in Tianwu knows it."
"Even the second prince, I love and care for you, and I have never been indifferent. But why do you have evil intentions and are so impatient?" "Hahahaha!" The imperial concubine actually raised her head and laughed after hearing this, and gradually became a little crazy.
She wiped away tears from laughter and asked sarcastically, "Yes, the emperor does love me in every possible way. But what is the purpose of that love? It's because I am close to the Queen Mother, and you want to use me to know the Queen Mother's movements.
"Also, you still have the nerve to mention the second prince! Since you love him, why don't you make him the prince? You even use him as a shield and puppet for others!"
The emperor was stunned for a moment, very surprised, "You actually know?"
"Of course!" The imperial concubine's expression became more and more resentful, "I have been in this palace for many years, and even if I have to survive, I always have some tricks. Suddenly there is a big living person in Xilong Pavilion, and the emperor doesn't know which wild woman he is dating. What a bastard, how could I not know!
“The Emperor is so scheming that he hid it from the Queen Mother, the courtiers, and Tianwu for so many years! Everyone has been deceived by you!
“Who knew that your son would have grown up and been taught by you to be so thoughtful!”
The emperor didn't speak for a long time, and finally sighed, "No wonder you are like this, it turns out you know about Xilong Pavilion.
“But that child was not born from me and some wild woman, he is...the eldest prince!”
“Impossible!” The imperial concubine was really surprised this time. “Isn’t the eldest prince dead long ago?”
A flash of pride and complexity flashed across the emperor's eyes, "Back then, the Queen Mother suppressed him and the government was in chaos. I couldn't keep the eldest prince from growing up safely, so I could only let him fake his death and live outside the palace.
“Fortunately, with the blessing of our ancestors, this child is smart and strong-tempered. He is not only well-read and sensible, but also has insight into world affairs. He is a rare talent.
"Now that Tianwu has unified the country and the country, and if he succeeds him, it will take less than two years, and a prosperous age can be expected!"
“Hahaha,” the imperial concubine thought of something and laughed again.
The emperor was very dissatisfied when his thoughts were interrupted. He frowned and scolded, "Why are you laughing? Aren't you afraid of people who are waiting to die?"
"Afraid, of course I am afraid of death. But I still can't help but want to laugh!" The imperial concubine looked sarcastic, "The Tianwu Horse unifies the rivers and mountains. That is the credit of Marquis Xinting. The eternal achievements are his, and the people are grateful to him!
“The great prince can be expected to prosper, and after he ascends the throne, he will definitely be an emperor who will leave a mark in history.
“Posterity will mention you as a waste who was suppressed by many people by the Queen Mother, and a coward who was driven to the south of the Yangtze River for many years by the barbarians!
“Hahaha, none of this has anything to do with you. I really don’t know why you are so proud!”
Manager Yi gasped when he heard this, and knelt down directly, burying his head on his knees. He really wanted to sew the concubine's mouth shut.
These words are not only piercing the heart, they are simply gouging out the heart. They are cutting the emperor's dignity into pieces and then throwing it into the frying pan until it becomes crispy!
The emperor's eyes were red, and the reluctance he had suppressed for a long time in his heart suddenly burst out at this moment!
These days, he has been persuading himself that his cousin has supported him since he was a child and has been loyal. He has also been on the war field for more than ten years. He has endured all the hard work and is praised by all people. It is fitting that he has achieved eternal achievements.
The eldest prince is his son and his successor. He will achieve prosperity and peace in the future, which is also the pride of his father. He also opened the door to the prosperity with his own hands!
However, only he knows how many dark nights he sat on the dragon bed like a wild beast and roared silently.
These should all be his!
He had endured humiliation and heavy burdens for many years, and finally wanted to feel proud, but he was harmed by the person beside him and only had a few months left to live.
It is almost a wish that is within easy reach, but it is only one step away and cannot be waited for...
