Why are the women in the harem tearing up

***

Thinking about it later, I feel stupid.

If Xiao Wuyang has the ability to kill His Highness the Crown Prince, why does he have to borrow me to kill the Emperor?

It's also my fault that I got confused when I heard the name of the prince.

Then, I became the actor Ah Chu.

That Xiao Wuyang was impeccable in his work, and gave me another medicine before leaving.

I think it is of great use for me to keep this life. I can't blame me for being spineless. Even if I am spineless, I will admit it. In short, I choose to live.

After that, I studied singing in a garden for half a month.

The one who followed me was a little girl named Yuan Ya.

According to the girl, she was in charge of feeding the fish in the palace before, but because the former queen had a habit of strangling the fish to death, no live fish could be found in the whole palace, so she also Then I was free, and was later sent by the empress to do this errand.

This little girl is good-looking, but she doesn't have much brains.

I calmly pretended not to hear anything, but actually silently remembered in my heart that this important matter of slowly poisoning the current Holy Majesty was instigated by the empress.

One day, it was said that two distinguished guests had come, and I was preparing to sing an opera for them, and it happened that I also came on stage to get acquainted.When I was spinning around in the background getting ready, I happened to catch a glimpse of two women sitting by the pool in the garden.

The two of them crackled the melon seeds together.

One of them said: "This opera singer is indeed similar to General Wei, but when you think about it carefully, the opera singer is always too weak, I am afraid that the Holy Majesty will not take it too seriously."

"You don't know something, the so-called softness around the fingers is the most capable of deceiving people."

"That's true, but there is one thing I don't quite understand. This opera singer is originally from the Eastern Palace, and the empress has always been on good terms with Concubine Fang Fei. I still don't understand the key to this." She said as she spoke. While knocking on melon seeds, "Rong'er, you see everything clearly, maybe you can talk about it."

"Then I'll tell you what I said last time. However, I didn't care about these things at first. I just heard about them when I was free. I wonder if you still remember the guard who eloped with the eldest princess? The guard has now joined the army. According to reports, As far as I know, I have made some achievements now. From this point of view, the empress is very likely to stand on the side of Concubine De, and most likely she supports His Highness the Crown Prince."

I was startled when I heard the words His Royal Highness the Prince.

"did you mean?"

"Yes, what I mean is that the empress and the crown prince probably worked together on this matter. They are afraid that the Fang family will lose their composure now that they have a little prince from Concubine Fang Fei."

"But...you know, I don't care about this matter, but I can't help but hear a few words in the palace. The empress and the former empress Fang have a very personal relationship. Of course, we can't speculate randomly, but, in my opinion Why doesn't the Empress support the Fang family?"

The man named Rong'er on the opposite side smiled slyly and said: "This is because you can't see through it. According to me, the death of Empress Fang was half due to the Holy Majesty, and the other half... I'm afraid it has to go to the Fang family. The empress's resentment towards Fang's family is no less than her resentment towards the emperor."

The woman eating melon seeds pondered for a while, and suddenly "Goose" laughed, and after laughing for a long time, she suddenly said: "Fortunately, we are not involved now, just watching the fun."

When I heard this, I quietly stepped aside.

It turns out that the noble prince tied me back for this reason.

Let me tell you earlier, you don’t have to shut me up for so long first, and then start talking about using it after you have developed a relationship.

Isn't this superfluous?

Now that I think about it, I'm afraid I'm being self-indulgent.

Well, at that time, because of the bargaining chip of His Highness the Crown Prince, I agreed to Xiao Wuyang's request without hesitation. I am afraid that, in the ears of others, I must be a fool.

***

Xiao Wuyang picked a sunny day and sent me to the old emperor.

The old emperor was a fat man with squinting eyes.

It looks harmless from a distance, and even feels a little gentle and easy to bully.

But after following him for a long time, I realized that this person is actually very shrewd when he squints his eyes.

I guess, it's not that he didn't realize the chronic poison I gave him, but he still didn't leave me for a moment.Probably, the emperor wanted to die, and if he could be killed by someone who looked like General Wei, he probably couldn't wish for it.

After staying in the palace for a long time, I can occasionally meet the legendary empress.

That Empress Zheng is indeed beautiful, but I always feel that she is a little less dignified, probably because the day I saw her, she was asking for pea yellow from Sapo, a palace daughter named "Wen Sunzai", at the gate of the former Empress's palace. eat.

She was wearing a bright pink robe, pouted at the gate of the hall, and said, "It's so good that Wensun is smashing, why don't I just take a bite?"

"No." Wen Sun replied with a cold face.

If other people were wearing bright pink, they would definitely fall into the cliché, but for some reason, this dress was surprisingly not out of place when worn on Empress Zheng.

I looked at it from afar, turned around and left.

I have to say, just looking at it like this, I feel that this seemingly stupid queen is actually more difficult to deal with than I originally imagined.Her level is too high, anyway, I think I should not have the chance to sing with her face to face.

Are the people in this palace all monsters?

The emperor is like this, and so is the queen.

Thanks to the disagreement between these two, if the two of them really work together, there may not even be a scum left in this reactionary in the court.

On the day of General Wei's death, the Holy Majesty had no time to talk to me, and I temporarily escaped from the status quo of "the emperor will not go to court early" for a day, and finally I can take a rest for a while.

I wanted to take a stroll at night to see the scenery in the dark night of the Imperial Garden, but I bumped into our honorable Highness the Crown Prince.

I immediately stopped, and wanted to turn around quietly to find another way, but unfortunately, His Royal Highness also saw me, he walked quickly, grabbed my shoulders, and held me in place.

"Greetings to His Highness the Crown Prince." I turned around and saluted.

In fact, I don’t know how to salute myself. Although there are many rules in the palace, but because of my special status and the shadow of General Wei’s face, I have never saluted anyone, not even the Holy Majesty. Excuse me.Therefore, my etiquette is actually imitating the etiquette given to me by the eunuchs in the palace, I don't know if it is right.

It doesn't seem right.

Because our honorable prince's face is really not very good-looking.

"Why do you humiliate yourself in this way to disobey me?" he said.

Really wronged.

I've gotten to this point today, no one dares to make a sound when I walk sideways, vertically, or obliquely in the palace, why bother to embarrass myself just to scare you off?

I really just want to be considerate and courteous.

I'm afraid, you feel a sense of urgency, but it's still because you feel that you can't live with me.

But actually, I don't really hate it.

Really, after all, everyone has a position.My position is that I live in a comfortable life, but our honorable prince's position is that of the world.

Naturally, it is understandable for those who stand in the world to do anything.

I said: "His Royal Highness, I am not the kind of person who is willing to humiliate myself, you can rest assured. Besides, I really don't like to hold grudges. We have known each other for a long time. I have the right to say that my current situation has nothing to do with you."

Just as he was about to say something, I hurriedly added, "I'm really not a man of integrity, I'm just a Penghao generation, so don't think that my promise is for you, you can think about it, I'm just It’s just for the sake of my humble life.”

I turned around after I finished speaking.

He suddenly walked up quickly, squeezed my chin and kissed me.I didn't avoid it, and after a while, he pried my mouth open, and then slid into a cool little ball.He held the back of my head and didn't let go until the thing melted in my mouth and I had to swallow it all before he let me go.

Mouth is bitter.

He said lightly, "The antidote."

I was dumbfounded.

It's an antidote, not a drug, so give it to me, will I refuse?Why do you have to use this method of forcing me to eat?

"Thank you, His Royal Highness."

I said this, because I don't know how to salute, so I can't do it.

***

The fat emperor is dead.

The sudden death without warning shocked me.

Before he died, his eyes were not clear, and he clasped my hand and shouted "Ayan Ayan".

The narrow-eyed fat emperor curled his mouth and closed his eyes.

My eyes are inexplicably a little soggy.

Ah Yan is so lucky.

In the whole world, I am the only one who knows that the Fat Emperor is dead, so don't I let me do whatever I want?

***

When I walked to the door of the Queen's bedroom, I heard the familiar aura, Xiao Wuyang was undoubtedly there.

Only that person can bypass so many guards and appear in the palace without anyone noticing, and he can hide his breath so well, although, from the beginning to the end, he has not escaped my insight.

Forgot to mention, in fact, I still have some martial arts foundation.

Maybe I shouldn't be so humble. If I were a little more arrogant, then I can indeed say that I am stronger than Xiao Wuyang.

But I don't hold grudges very much, so I pretended I didn't notice anything, and let him go.

Sure enough, after I entered, Xiao Wuyang had already left.

After the door was pushed open, there was no light on the main hall in the Queen's Palace, and a small layer of dust was still flying, making it not very prosperous.

In the middle, there is a big iron cage, in which our honorable prince is locked up.

I smiled at him at the door, knelt down on one knee, touched my head to the ground, and said respectfully, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

His Royal Highness leaned in a corner, half-closed his eyes, and lazily said, "Are you here? Why?"

"Yes, I'm here." I said, "However, it's not just because of the small print that I deceived His Highness the Crown Prince. I'm really ashamed."

His Royal Highness laughed.

"Chu in the lower part, go to the thorn in small characters." I touched the iron railing a few times and said, "I was born in the outer room, and I have been living in the south of the Yangtze River for these years. Although my father never personally taught me, he always regarded me as the last of the Fang family. My mother named me Chu, but my father thought it was too sharp, so he chose the word "Quji" as my nickname."

I calmly explained the origin of my name, and mentioned my life experience in passing.

"Because of this, this word is very good." His Royal Highness said, "Believe it, let it go, be unrestrained, the name and the word suppress each other, it is always better than icing on the cake."

"I also feel that this word is very good, but it is a pity that it is a vision without restraint."

Since I was a child, I never thought that I would have a day of freedom.

Because, since I was a child, I have existed for the Fang family.

This power struggle is nothing more than the Fang family's faction and the queen's faction.The queen embraces the crown prince, and the Fang family clearly embraces Concubine Fang Fei's son, but in fact, it is the Fang family themselves.

For so many years, several generations of the Fang family have gained a firm foothold because of "conglongzhigong", but until today, it is impossible not to see through the end of the cunning rabbit and lackey, so it is not impossible for Jiangshan to change his surname.

Concubine Fang Fei is really stupid, she is just a side branch of the Fang family, how could she work the entire family to risk her life for her son?

"Mr. Fang, congratulations." His Royal Highness said.

***

I met the Empress Empress in the main hall of the court.

Sure enough, the empress is still majestic.

She smiled at me and said, "Ah Chu."

"Greetings to the empress," I said.

The little mosquito father-in-law was gone from the empress's side, and Yuan Ya was added.

Today is the day of siege.

The Fang family's main family and the kept-in-the-dark Fang Feifei's main family's northwest family live in the capital, and the queen is just a paper tiger.It's hard for her to dress up and come to the hall to challenge me.

"Young people, never be too conceited." Empress Zheng spoke lightly, not at all like she was when she was slapstick and asking for pea yellow.

She took small steps, walked up the steps step by step, and stood face to face with me in front of the dragon-patterned chair at the top, as if to compete with me.

I dared not sit in that chair.

Who knew, the empress took a look at me and sat in that position with her head held high.

She said: "I heard an interesting story a few days ago. Of course, I don't care about this, but I just happened to be there."

When I heard the way this was said, I was afraid that I had stayed in the same place as the two sunflower seed eating women I met when I was still in the opera garden.

"At that time, the eldest son of the emperor—oh, that is, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, went out to play with me in the palace, and happened to be invited by an old friend in the world to go to the small courtyard he set up in the capital. People, but this is just speculation, speculation, but he really has a unique way of rectifying people, I guess, the devil's religion is probably inseparable."

The empress was sitting upright on the dragon chair, but because she was dressed up today and had such a three-jin phoenix crown on her head, she moved slightly and changed her posture.

"It stands to reason that this palace can't see these bloody things. After all, you have to have a bodhisattva heart. However, if you are invited by an old friend, you can't help but look at it a few times. But to be honest, the method of the devil's religion is really unusual, you know Chili water?" She pursed her lips and asked with a smile.

Just hearing the three words chili water, I felt my stomach, throat and nose hurt.

"This is not the strangest thing," Queen Zheng continued, "the most strange thing is that the chili water is too choking, just standing and looking at it from a distance, our eldest son of the emperor shed tears all over his face, are you ...Is this strange?"

I can't speak.

I reached out and touched it, my face was full of tears.

It turned out that he saw the pain I suffered that day.

Although, from the beginning of the meeting, I was plotting against him, but there was a period in the middle, indeed, I was also moved by true feelings, even if he approached me with a purpose, I always thought he still took me seriously of.

Especially when he gave me the antidote.

It turned out not to be.

At that time, he was actually watching.

My conviction and sense of superiority for so long was gone.

It turned out that he was not the only one who was stupid.

I am not the only one who is hypocritical.

Come to think of it, I'm not qualified to ask him to be sincere to me, but isn't that how people are, they always demand more from others than from themselves.

Suddenly there were footsteps outside the hall.

The empress smiled slowly, and said, "Probably, none of you can beat me."

"When you know that this palace is still called Concubine Lian, what did you become famous for?" The empress rubbed her neck, "At that time, this palace changed the blood of the harem that was full of talents, and even the former empress Call me a palace fighter. So, you, the Fang family, the emperor, all of you who have harmed the empress, must be defeated by me, let me watch you with my own eyes, and go to be buried with the empress."

When Empress Zheng said this, it was clearly in a vicious tone, but her complexion was normal, and her tone was gentle, without any resentment.

But she clearly resented the person who she said killed the first queen.

Footsteps approached, and it was Prince Donggong who came in.

At that moment, I knew that I lost.

The entire Fang family lost.

Behind the prince was a dark man with a round face.At this time, I suddenly remembered the guard who eloped with the princess mentioned when the two women eating melon seeds were talking.

It turned out to be the case.

The Fang family lost here.

To be honest, don't complain.Lost in the hands of such a woman.She had already guarded the Fang family from the very beginning.

"I lost."

I say.

***

The new emperor ascended the throne.

The first emperor was buried.

The actor was buried with him.

The Fang family is destroyed.

Fang Fei was imprisoned.

The empress, the current empress dowager, decided to move Empress Fang's card, at least far away from the emperor, so don't be afraid of anyone.

Wensun stood under the tree in Queen Fang's bedroom, listening to the disturbing cicadas on the tree, and muttered to himself: "Ma'am, it's been another year. Concubine Lian hasn't asked someone to stick the cicadas down this year, I'm afraid she deliberately wanted to Let these cicadas make the empress uneasy, so that you can come back to see her, even if it is to scold her. In fact, these years, slaves and maidservants have often made mistakes, so empress, if you really come back to reprimand Concubine Lian, Can you, together with your servants, also scold a few words?"
