Chapter 147: Empress and Queen Kill

Gu Jiu followed Zhang's family, Xie's family returned to the side hall.
She was a little disturbed.
A dazzling one, unexpectedly saw Pei Yun.
Has Bae Yun returned to the capital?
Before he could think about it, they had already entered the side hall.
Zhang looked at Gu Jiu, thinking that Gu Jiu was afraid, so he comforted her quietly, "Don't worry, it's okay."
Gu Jiu nodded slightly, "Thank you auntie."
Xie's brows furrowed slightly, and after sitting down, he couldn't help but look back, looking at Gu Jiu frequently.
She couldn't figure out why the Empress Empress was so attracted to Gu Jiu alone.
Very strange.
Could it be the old lady Wei's credit again?
The Xie family whispered to the Zhang family: "Sister-in-law, what do you think the old lady would say in front of the mother?"
"Naturally speaking auspicious words."
Xie paused, and asked again: "The Queen Empress asked Xiao Jiu, it should be the old lady."
Zhang said softly: "You don't have to think about it, just wait quietly."
Xie felt boring.
To be honest, Zhang's family also didn't know what was going on in the main hall? Not sure about the thoughts of Queen Cui.
You can only wait for the palace banquet, and find an opportunity to ask some sister-in-laws in the Hou Mansion, maybe they know.
The queen empress was tired and used the fastest time to finish interviewing the imperial wife.
Then, he was helped by the palace.
Everyone moved to Chenghui Hall.
The palace banquet will be held in Chenghui Hall.
When the empress is not there, the atmosphere in Chenghui Hall is much more lively.
Finally, everyone didn't have to sit on their chairs and could move around in the group hall at will, gathering together to talk in twos and threes.
Gu Yue was anxious, she had been holding it for a long time, and she could not hold it anymore.
She pulled Gu Shan, "Four sister, you accompany me to the toilet, okay?"
Seeing her in a hurry, Gu Shan hurriedly said to Xie and Zhang.
Xie frowned and whispered, "I told you during the New Year's Eve dinner last night, eat and drink less, and don't drink water after getting up. Did you forget it again?"
Gu Yue was about to cry in a hurry.
Zhang hurriedly said, "Don't worry about younger brothers and sisters."
She called a little palace lady, gave a purse, and let the little palace lady lead Gu Yue to the toilet. Gu Shan accompanies Gu Yue to go there together.
Xie urged Gu Shan: "Take a good look at your third elder sister, and come back as soon as you are done, and you are not allowed to stay outside."
Gu Shan leaned forward and hurried to catch up with Gu Yue.
Zhang said to Gu Jiu: "Xiao Jiu, if you are in a hurry, just tell me."
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern. I'm fine."
For today's morning congratulations, Gu Jiu abruptly endured it, and had not drank a sip of water for five or six hours. Now she just feels thirsty, not in a hurry.
Zhang met the three sister-in-laws of the Hou Mansion and hurriedly greeted them. Xie also followed, wanting to inquire about the news.
Gu Jiu got into the crowd and walked towards Pei Yun.
Pei Yun also saw Gu Jiu, smiled at Gu Jiu, and then walked towards her.
"Sister Pei, it's really you!" Gu Jiu looked happy.
Pei Yun looked around, "Hush, I just returned to the capital for a few days. Sister Gu, I've heard about everything. I didn't expect my mother to go to your house to propose a marriage, and then turn back again, don't be angry."
Gu Jiu smiled sweetly, "Sister Pei is too worried, I have forgotten if you don't mention it."
Pei Yun took Gu Jiu's hand and said, "I will persuade her mother to change her mind and invite the matchmaker to your house to propose marriage again."
"Don't."
When Gu Jiu heard this, he was anxious, "Sister Pei, the marriage revolves. Now that the wife has given up, let this matter go, no need to mention it."
Pei Yun was a little confused, "Is Sister Gu angry? Still look down on my third brother?"
"Neither. I just don't want to make a marriage so early, and I want to stay at home for two more years."
Pei Yun suddenly realized that Gu Jiu's thoughts were similar to her previous thoughts.
She secretly ran to the northwest, also to avoid marriage.
But after spending more than half a year in the northwest, things did not develop as she expected.
And she was too old to delay any longer.
Pei Yun thought it over, so she returned to the capital, ready to accept this fate.
Pei Yun said to Gu Jiu: "Sister Gu, let me say a few more words, don't you bother me, okay?"
Gu Jiu nodded, "Sister Pei, please say."
Pei Yun said: "I can understand Sister Gu's feeling that she doesn't want to marry too early. But if she encounters a suitable marriage, Sister Gu should also firmly grasp it.
There seem to be many young talents in the capital, but the ones that suit them are actually very limited, and sometimes they don't even meet them. If you are lucky enough, don't miss it. "
Gu Jiu blinked and then laughed, "Thank you Sister Pei for the mention, I will remember what you said. It's just that I haven't met a suitable marriage right now."
Pei Yun smiled clearly, it seemed that Gu Jiu didn't want to marry Luhou Mansion. Perhaps it was what the elders of the Gu family said to Gu Jiu, such as saying that Luhou Mansion is not a good match.
Now that Gu Jiu showed his attitude, Pei Yun would naturally not be too difficult.
"I hope Sister Gu can achieve what she wants."
"Thank you Sister Pei, and I hope you can get what you want and marry a wishful man."
Pei Yun bowed her head with a sad expression, "What kind of man is considered a wishful man?"
Gu Jiu deliberately said: "Everyone has their own standards, and this varies from person to person."
"Then what is the Ruyi Langjun in sister Gu's heart?"
Gu Jiu smiled shyly, "I haven't thought about this problem seriously. Generally speaking, it means that the character is good, reasonable, and the family situation is simpler and better. I guess I can't meet it."
Pei Yun teased: "Just because of a simple family situation, ninety-nine percent of the people have been rejected. The remaining few people, I am afraid, will not meet the requirements of character and reasonableness. It can be seen that sister Gu's request is not Generally high, but very high."
Gu Jiu smiled, eyebrows crooked, "So my idea is too naive. Marriage matters, let it happen."
Pei Yun smiled bitterly, with sad eyes, "I really envy Sister Gu, you think so."
Gu Jiu thoughtfully, "Did Sister Pei encounter something difficult?"
"Is it difficult for someone I like, but the other person doesn't like me?"
Oh!
Gu Jiu suddenly realized.
She comforted Pei Yun: "There are tens of thousands of men in the world, why sister Pei hanged on a tree with a crooked neck. The other party did not look at you, it was the other party's loss, which can only prove that the person has no eyesight and is lame."
Liu Zhao, who was in Tai Chi Palace at the moment, felt a bit itchy nose and couldn't help but want to sneeze.
He rubbed his nose and held back.
Haha...
Pei Yun covered her mouth and laughed, "You said he was crooked neck tree, puff... If he heard it, he would be angry."
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "Sister Pei will definitely not tell each other, right?"
Pei Yun nodded, "Of course not. Sister Gu, your comfort is really ingenious. Listening to you, my mood has improved a lot. He is not alone in the world, so why should I hang on him."
"That's right. Where there is no fragrant grass in the end of the world, why just love a grass."
Pei Yun couldn't help laughing again, "Sister Gu, you are so funny. It is appropriate to compare a woman to a flower and a man to a grass. Thank you for your sister, I am in a much better mood. Time is limited today, another day. I’ll post you a post. Let’s find a place to sit down and have a good chat."
Gu Jiu's eyebrows curled, "Sister Pei doesn't want me to be indifferent."
"You worry too much, you are a weird voice."
The occasion was limited, and the two fell apart after talking.
Gu Shan accompanied Gu Yue back to the main hall, and Gu Yue regained his energy with a comfortable expression.
Xie didn't let her go, and beat her hard.
Gu Yue was wronged and almost cried.
"Don't look at what the occasion is. If you dare to cry, I will break your leg."
Gu Yue put away her tears, "Daughter dare not cry."
Xie snorted coldly, "Follow the rules, don't walk around, follow me."
"The daughter listens to her mother."
Gu Jiu saw the atmosphere stiff, so he didn't step forward.
She found Gu Mei in the crowd, "Sister Mei, thank you for your hard work today."
"Sister Xiao Jiu worked hard."
The two smiled at each other.
For today's morning greetings, everyone actually worked very hard.
This will also be strong in the spirit of entertaining all parties.
Gu Jiu asked quietly: "Sister Mei, in the main hall of Weiyang Palace before, the Queen Mother called our sisters to come forward and speak, do you mean nothing else?"
Gu Jiu has been worried about this, for fear of accidents.
Gu Mei said: "The queen empress should only be on a whim, and there is no other meaning."
"That's good, that's good."
Gu Jiu felt relieved. As long as it is not targeted by the Queen Empress.
...
Inside the Weiyang palace, there was a cough, as if the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys were about to cough up, making the hearts of the palace people tighten.
The lady of the court hurriedly walked into the sleeping hall with a bowl of soup medicine, "Niang, the medicine is here."
"Cough...cough...poof..."
The blood was gushing, and the palace maids and eunuchs seemed to collapse.
"Manny, do you matter?"
"The empress vomited blood, let the doctor Wang come in soon."
"Manny, you lie down quickly."
For a moment, Empress Cui looked at the blood on the carpet blankly.
She vomited blood, and even vomited blood.
"Why panic! My palace is not dead yet."
Queen Cui scolded the palace people angrily.
The palace people were quiet instantly.
Queen Cui took the handkerchief from the maid and gently wiped the corners of her mouth.
The corners of his mouth are full of blood.
The dark red blood makes people frightened.
Empress Cui laughed at herself, "It seems that there is not much time left for this palace."
The Royal Physician Wang came in carrying the medicine box, and saw the blood on the ground, he was also frightened.
"Please stretch out your hand for Niang Niang, and the Weichen will diagnose Niang Niang pulse."
Empress Cui stretched out her right hand and said, "You don't need to be nervous, take your time."
The cold sweat on the forehead of Doctor Wang came down.
He checked his pulse blankly, and his heart jumped suddenly, too frightened.
After the pulse diagnosis, Doctor Wang bowed and said, "The previous prescription has to be changed, and the Weichen re-prescribes it."
Empress Cui stared at Doctor Wang, "Let's talk about it, how is the health of this palace? How long can I live?"
The doctor Wang was pale, and knelt on the ground with a thud, "Please forgive your mother, please forgive her..."
"To tell the truth, this palace spares you not to die. Otherwise, you know the harem." Empress Cui stared at Doctor Wang gloomily.
The sweat bead on the forehead of the doctor Wang fell drop by drop.
"Weichen, Weichen..."
"Let's say, no matter what the consequences, this palace can afford it."
Physician Wang gritted her teeth and said, "Niang Niang's body has reached the point where the oil is exhausted, and it is possible at any time..."
"How long can you keep the house alive?"
Empress Cui didn't want to hear words that might die at any time, she wanted a specific time.
Doctor Wang was frightened and looked up at Queen Cui.
Queen Cui sternly scolded, "Say, how many days can I live in this palace?"
"Niang Niang, life-saving medicines are all tiger-wolf medicines. After taking them, they will feel painful."
The Queen Cui said calmly, "I haven't suffered anything in my life. I just want to know how many days I can live now?"
The doctor Wang said courageously: "If you follow the prescription, you will still have five days at most. If you take the life-saving medicine, supplemented by acupuncture, it will only take half a month at most."
"As long as half a month, time is really pressing."
Empress Cui sighed with emotion.
In the sleeping hall, all the palace members knelt down.
The air was suddenly quiet, no one spoke, and even the atmosphere did not dare to breathe.
Empress Cui smiled coldly and said: "Go and invite His Royal Highness, the palace has something to say to him."
At this time, a court lady came in from outside and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, your majesty, and your Royal Highness, and all the princes and grandsons."
Empress Cui smiled softly, "Clean up the ground, and let your Majesty and them come in."
The palace people hurriedly changed the carpet and cleaned up the traces.
The maid said: "But your majesty has already arrived at the gate of the palace.
The queen urged her eyes to stare, "Tell Your Majesty, if he doesn't want this palace to die today, don't rush in."
The palace lady's face was pale, she bowed to take her orders, and hurried out.
When Emperor Kai Yao heard that the empress was unwell, even his wife Chaohe hurriedly finished. So he left his courtiers and led the princes and grandchildren to visit Weiyang Palace.
As a result, he arrived at the sleeping hall, but was stopped by the palace man.
"The mother said, please come in later."
Emperor Kai Yao frowned, "It's absurd, even I dare to stop it."
The palace people all knelt down, "Please atone for your sins, this is what the empress meant. The empress said, if your majesty doesn't want her to die today, don't rush in."
Kai Yaodi's face changed, his face was sullen and silent.
His Royal Highness paled, and hurriedly asked: "How is the mother's queen? How about the royal doctors? Go and call all the doctors from the hospital."
Immediately there was a maid leading the order and went to the imperial hospital to call the imperial doctor.
"Stop yelling, come in. The palace will not die in a while."
Empress Cui's voice came from the bedroom.
Kai Yaodi let out a cold snort and led the princes and grandchildren into the bedroom.
The interior of the sleeping hall was completely renewed, the carpets were replaced with new ones, the bed was cleaned, and the bedding was replaced with new ones.
Queen Cui's court clothes were changed, and they changed into light home clothes.
She was sitting on the head of the bed with an unhealthy flush of red on her face.
"Please forgive me, your concubine cannot get out of bed."
"Don't care about these fake gifts."
Emperor Kai Yao stepped forward, sat on the head of the bed, and held Empress Cui's hand.
Kai Yaodi was in his early sixties, old fat, with a beard, and when he saw it suddenly, he mistakenly thought he was a kind elder.
But he didn't know that Emperor Kai Yao, from the prince to the emperor, to the elderly emperor, stepped on the sea of ​​blood all the way.
There are many bones under his feet, and how many aristocratic families that have passed on for a hundred years have been destroyed in the hands of Emperor Kai Yao and disappeared in the long river of time.
Kai Yaodi's more than a dozen brothers were all dead and abolished.
There are only three or two of the brothers who are still alive. Others have become cannon fodder on his road to imperial power. Nothing is spared.
Such an emperor is kind and non-existent. Cruelty and paranoia are the most profound portrayals of him.
As long as it is the person he hates, it is absolutely to death. It is not enough to die one person, and the whole family must die.
As long as it is someone he trusts, even if the treasury is emptied, everyone from the people to the court will still enjoy glory and wealth.
But once he loses his trust, it will die worse than other officials.
Empress Cui looked at Emperor Kai Yao and smiled.
The two young couples have gone through decades of ups and downs together from youth to old age.
Empress Cui can't remember whether she has ever fallen in love. Those were all decades ago. Who remembers the sentiments of the teenage years.
But Empress Cui was sure that she had tried to kill Emperor Kai Yao countless times.
I believe the other party thinks so too, and has tried to abolish her as a queen countless times.
The husband and wife killed each other for decades, and now they are both old, but they still can't let go of those knots.
Empress Cui said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for coming to visit your concubine. Your concubine's body is unbelievable, so your Majesty has bothered.
"We are a husband and wife, it's too strange to say this."
Empress Cui lowered her head and smiled. Both husband and wife are used to acting and have forgotten how to speak sincerely.
"Your Majesty, the concubines are going to die soon, I guess they won't survive this year."
When the prince heard this, his body couldn't help but shook, looking helpless.
Empress Cui glanced at the prince gently, ignoring him.
Emperor Kai Yao comforted Empress Cui, "The empress still has to relax and take good care of her body. I also hope that the empress can always be with me."
"The concubines also want to be with Your Majesty, but time waits for no one."
"Don't think about it. If the doctor is incompetent, I will call a world-renowned doctor to treat the queen."
Empress Cui smiled, "Your majesty's heart is accepted by the concubines."
