Chapter 70: Yesterday, today is endless (1)
I looked up again and looked at him calmly, "You are dead, let alone no one can wash your family."
He smiled long and said, "What's the use of washing or not, they are no longer there. As long as I kill you and the Liu concubine, my revenge will be avenged."
I shook my head feebly and said, "If you killed me here today, it is impossible to go out again. Concubine Liu, how can you move?"
There was a smug on his face: "Since I did it, I didn't think I could go out alive. As for Concubine Liu, as long as I insist that it is her master..."
He didn't finish, because he knew I understood what he meant.
I saw him take out a sharp blade from his sleeve, the cold light illuminates my face, and I don't have any strength to persuade him.
In fact, I want to tell him that I will help his family clean up the grievances and remove Concubine Liu, but the severe pain on my body came again, and the pain almost fainted.
I just looked at him like this, watched him raise the sharp blade high, watched the cold light flash down, and closed my eyes.
With a sound of "clang", followed by a shout of "Oh," I opened my closed eyes and saw a silver-gray figure, a familiar face to me.
On the ground is a white jade flute broken in half, tied with a green silk ribbon.
The silver light flashed in the air, it was the sharp blade, but it hit the air. He turned around and avoided, and flew a foot on Xiao Guizi’s wrist. Xiao Guizi yelled "Oh," and the other hand couldn’t help. She covered her injured hand and stepped back again and again.
Xiao Guizi had a good skill, and at this time, he had already ignored his life, and quickly adjusted and rushed forward. I don't know when another knife appeared in his hand and came straight towards me.
Another figure suddenly appeared in front of me and blocked me, Xiao Guizi hesitated for a moment.
At this point, the silver-grey figure caught him from behind, and with a sudden flick, Xiao Guizi landed a few meters away.
The flower stand there was knocked down, and the precious porcelain on it fell all over the floor. Xiao Guizi did not move for a long time. A large number of guards rushed in and surrounded him, and a bright long sword was placed on Xiao Guizi's head.
I stood up with the help of Hui Ju who had just entered, and said weakly, "Don't kill him, keep his life."
Lying back on the bed, Xiao Guizi was kicked out. Shen Xiyao specifically ordered to prevent him from committing suicide. The Dongnuan Pavilion was full of attendants in the Kunning Palace, bowing their heads, waiting for the emperor's punishment.
I looked at Shen Xiyao sitting on the side of the bed and Xi He standing on the side. Their faces were full of anxiety and concern.
Xi He was almost about to step forward to me, but he just took a foot, regained his life, and restrained.
I saw his clenched fists, the knuckles were faintly whitish, and the silver-gray clothes showed signs of fighting. The frightening murderous in his eyes disappeared without a trace, but now it is a deep worry and concern.
Shen Xiyao also looked at me. In addition to worry and extreme anger in his eyes, I could see that he was about to explode.
"Come here." He exclaimed angrily, and Zhang Dehai knelt down beside him carefully. He didn't look at him, nor did his eyes fall on my face.
But I saw the murderous in his eyes. The difference from Xi He's before was that the murderous in his eyes was so heavy that it made me fear from the bottom of my heart.
"All the attendants in the Kunning Palace," he said word by word, each with hatred: "Don't keep one."
My heart sank, and I didn't keep one, I grasped his hand tightly, and he looked back at me, his eyes immediately became tender.
"The emperor, no." My eyes couldn't bear it.
He looked at me, and Xihe also knelt down at this moment: "Brother Huang, no."
His gaze turned towards Xi He: "Why not? The order I ordered yesterday made a mistake in one night. All these minions deserve to die." His voice was cold.
I shook my head: "The emperor, always ask why, it is not too late to convict."
"Who is the night watch maid last night?" Shen Xiyao's gaze swept across the kneeling attendants coldly.
Hui Ju knelt and moved a step forward: "Slaves are damned, they are slaves."
Shen Xiyao waved his hand: "Pull it out and cut it."
Hui Ju was trembling with fright, tears kept dripping on the ground, but she did not dare to say a word.
I stretched out my hand to the guards who wanted to come forward, "Slowly." Then I looked at Shen Xiyao: "The emperor, always have to ask clearly, you can't rush to life."
Shen Xiyao looked at Hui Ju coldly, "Say!"
Hui Ju tremblingly said: "Back to the emperor, there was a scent of fragrance coming from nowhere at the dawn of this morning, and the slave servant fell asleep and woke up here..."
Before Hui Ju finished speaking, Shen Xiyao's gaze fell on the guards behind her, and the one headed hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, there was a burst of fragrant fragrance coming, and we fell asleep..."
Shen Xiyao lowered his head and did not speak. I pulled his sleeves and quickly glanced at Xi He who was standing aside. There was a layer of confusion on his face, but he still looked at me and looked at me as Shen Xiyao was pulling me. His hand is sad.
After a while, Shen Xiyao slowly said: "Take these minions to the prison, and convict them after the matter is found out."
His voice was tired. I glanced at him and said, "The emperor, so it seems that Concubine Liu has also been wronged."
Actually, he didn't want to say such a thing, but I knew that it was better for me to say it than he said.
He didn't nod or shook his head: "Wait until you find out."
I stopped talking, and Xi He stepped forward and said, "Brother Emperor, now that the murderer has been caught, Brother Emperor should stop worrying. Now that the Queen’s injury matters, that person must know what the antidote is."
Shen Xiyao raised his head, his face looked awake from dreams, he nodded and said to Zhang Dehai who was aside: "Go, try the antidote first."
I lay quietly, the sun had already risen outside, and the doctors surrounded me.
Shen Xiyao sat beside me, Xihe sat on a chair from a distance, watching Shen Xiyao and me all the time. I can't read his eyes.
Zhang Dehai carefully reminded Shen Xiyao on the side that the early hour had arrived.
"Today it is free." Shen Xiyao didn't even look at him.
I blinked: "The emperor, it won't cost you a day earlier, let alone your concubines cannot bear such guilt."
He looked at me: "How can I rest assured if you are like this?"
I smiled hard: "Since the emperor became the throne, he has not avoided the premature reign, even if you are ill, how can you not go because of the little things like your concubine today? The emperor think twice."
Xihe also stood up: "Yes, Brother Huang, you can't help but go."
Shen Xiyao's brows furrowed together, and he murmured, "But no one here can reassure me."
He looked at the eunuchs who were discussing with him, and looked outside the door. The who went to the prison to interrogate Xiao Guizi's antidote has not yet returned. I can see that Shen Xiyao's heart is deeply contradictory.
Suddenly, his gaze fell on Xi He, and I saw him hesitate and hesitate, but Zhang Dehai next to him once again reminded him in a low voice that the early morning time would be up soon.
He clenched his fist and walked to Xi He's side: "I am here now to rest assured that you are alone. Although it is unruly, there is no other person. You stay here until I come back. "
His eyes were firm, Xihe considered for a long time, I looked at his face, and my heart throbbed hard.
Finally, Xi He nodded.
In the Dongnuan Pavilion, the imperial physicians stood at the table in the corner of the outer room and discussed quietly.
I half leaned on the pillow, and through a heavy curtain, I could only see the furnishings inside. But I know, he is sitting not far from me, there are only two of us in this small house.
Although I can't see each other, my heart is warm. This is the only time we can live in the same room.
"Xi He," I called out softly, but I was taken aback by myself.
I heard his steps approaching, "What's wrong? Where is it?" There was concern in his voice, and a little bit of excitement.
I closed my eyes: "Xihe, I'm really afraid that I will die."
"Don't talk nonsense, no, the doctors are discussing it." He said quickly, as if he didn't want to touch this topic.
I smiled shallowly and helplessly: "Since that person is going to kill me, since he is poisoned, then how can he come up with the cure?"
My voice is so calm: "If the doctor could really find the antidote, wouldn't I be fine?
He was silent, but his eyes were clearly sad and sad.
I sighed and said: "In fact, now, I really want to leave soon, so that I don't have to endure the pain anymore. Why did he not kill me just now and let me endure it for another three days."
My tears fell silently. Suddenly a light came into my eyes, and he opened the curtain. I saw his nervous and scared look.
"What are you talking about, what torture? What three days?"
I turned my face away, not wanting him to see my tears, I said very lightly, "Nothing, it's just that the pain of this wound is getting worse and I can't support it anymore."
"Then what are three days?" His tone was peaceful and strange, just like the tranquility before the wind and rain.
I said disapprovingly: "Xiao Guizi said, it only takes three days from the poison to the death."
His figure shook, I quickly wiped away my tears with the quilt, turned my head and looked at him with a smile, my smile was so pure, but my heart was sad.
He looked at me for a long time: "No, you won't die, I won't let you die." His eyes were determined.
I smiled: "If I die, then I hope you can be happy."
My gaze crossed him and looked at the new furnishings in the Kunning Palace, how festive the red color is.
Except for this Kunning Palace, other places can only have so much red on festive days.
I slowly said: "I want you to have a virtuous princess, a few gentle side concubines, and have many sons and princesses, and beautiful and beautiful..."
As I spoke, my voice choked up, and the colic in my heart surged like waves.
He fixedly looked at me: "Is this really what you expected?"
I looked at him with tears.
He suddenly laughed: "No, if you die, then I will never live alone..."
There was warmth and heartache in my heart: "No, no, I want you to promise me that you have to live happily, whether for yourself, for your emperor brother, for this country, you have to live."
I turned around and stopped looking at him: "I want you to promise me. Even for me."
He did not answer, but I heard his footsteps go away, the door was closed, and the voice of him talking to the imperial doctor came from outside.
I covered my head and started crying.
After an hour or so, Shen Xiyao returned, and I stopped crying. Although the pain has been eroding me, I still pretended to fall asleep.
I heard the voice of him talking with Xihe in a low voice, occasionally a few words came into my ears, I didn't listen carefully, and didn't want to listen.
The door was closed gently, I looked at the bright sky outside the window, when I could be in the flowers again, when I could blow the purple jade flute, when, when I could Then discuss poems with him, when, I can...
However, it seems that there will not be such a moment.
