"Your Majesty." Li Yu came to report, "The Empress is here, saying that she has something important to discuss."
"Announce her to come in." Hongli said, worried.
Yingluo was too impulsive, even if she wanted to deal with Erqing, she shouldn't use such drastic means. Just the same, how should this corpse with blood oozing from its nose and mouth be returned to Fucha House? Just send it back like this, I'm afraid it will cause an uproar.
So the first thing to do is to whitewash the corpse, at least on the surface, as if it had committed suicide, rather than being poisoned to death.
This needs at least one imperial doctor to help...
"Your Majesty." The queen came in, and there was an imperial doctor beside her. She hesitated, "I was ordered to deal with Mrs. Zhongyong, but I unexpectedly learned a secret... This matter is related to the concubine of Yanxi Palace. After thinking about it again and again, the concubine decided to report it to the emperor and let you handle it yourself."
Hongli sighed: "But what's the difficulty?"
In the end, he decided to cover up Wei Yingluo, the emperor who ruled the world, but in the face of the love between men and women, he was helplessly at a disadvantage.
The queen glanced at the imperial doctor beside her: "Doctor Liu, tell the emperor what you have verified in detail."
"Yes." Imperial Physician Liu said respectfully, "The minister was ordered to dispose of Mrs. Zhongyong's body, and a lot of medicinal materials were used for this purpose. Unexpectedly, many medicinal materials disappeared. After investigation, most of them were called by Ye Tianshi."
Hongli felt inexplicable, and even had a trace of unpleasantness. His finger wearing an emerald finger tapped the table lightly, and he said lightly: "Concubine Ling is not in good health, Ye Tianshi has been instructed to invite the Ping An vein for her, and the queen came over late at night. Are you going to tell me this?"
"Doctor Liu." The Queen said, "You haven't told the Emperor what medicine Ye Tianshi took."
"Ginseng, wolfberry, and, and..." Imperial Doctor Liu lowered his head lower, and finally gritted his teeth, "The concubine Ling has been taking Bizi soup."
boom—
A thunder swept through the window, illuminating Hongli's face with whiteness.
Yanxi Palace.
She took off the last hairpin and put it lightly in the makeup box. Wei Yingluo was wearing only a white tee and looked at herself in the bronze mirror quietly.
In the mirror, she was the emperor's favorite concubine. She was constantly favored and favored. She came to sleep almost every time.
But Wei Yingluo knew that this came at a price.
"The slave respectfully invites the emperor to be holy."
"roll!"
The door behind him was suddenly kicked open, and Hongli burst in angrily: "Everyone, get out of here!"
No one knew why he was so angry, and neither did Wei Yingluo, until he closed the door with his backhand, he suddenly rushed over and grabbed her wrist: "Wei Yingluo, the nourishing soup you drink every month, What kind of medicine is that?"
Wei Yingluo was shocked.
"It's Bizitang, isn't it?" Hongli gasped, he ran in all the way, his shoulders were wet, as if wet by rain.
Wei Yingluo looked at his shoulder, unable to say a word for a long time.
Hongli is not a fool, only because he loves her, so he lives blindfolded all the time, and now the queen arrogantly tore off his blindfold, forcing him to see her clearly. He said sourly: "You approached me to avenge the queen, right?"
Wei Yingluo was silent for a long time, and finally nodded once.
Sure enough. Hongli felt a pain in his heart: "Every time you go to bed, every time you talk to me, every time you please me, it's all to improve your status and gain the capital that can compete with pure noble concubine, isn't it?"
Wei Yingluo closed her eyes: "...Yes."
She was like an assassin, one was a word, the sharpest knife in the world, stabbed a hole in his heart, Hongli took a deep breath, as if he had lost too much blood, his lips began to turn white: "...Why admit it? Is it because Concubine Chung is dead, in your eyes, I have no use value, so I no longer hide it, and no longer please me?"
"I..." Wei Yingluo hesitated, "I..."
I just feel sorry for the empress.
Er Qing became her nightmare, as long as she closed her eyes, she would see Er Qing hugging her legs, holding up a bleeding face, smiling fiercely at her: "Wei Yingluo, I betrayed the Empress. The same is true for you! Don't forget, you personally promised her that you would never be good to the emperor, and you would never rob her husband!"
She seemed so embarrassed that Hongli misunderstood her meaning.
"... I'm really a fool." He let out a sigh, and laughed miserably, "What do you expect, you drink Bizi soup without telling me, why? It's not because in your heart, I'm nothing at all, it's just you You don't want to have a child with a tool at all."
In an instant, my heart died.
"... No need to drink in the future." Hongli slowly let go of his hand and turned his back, "In the future... I won't appear in front of you again."
It was still raining outside, but he broke into the rain without turning his head. Behind him, Wei Yingluo slowly slumped on the ground.
"Niangniang." Mingyu hurriedly came over to help her, and when she saw her dejected look, she comforted, "You are right, it is the emperor who is wrong, there are so many women in the world, but he wants to favor Erqing, she is the queen My sister-in-law is Fu Heng's wife..."
"I'm fine." Wei Yingluo interrupted her, her voice extremely exhausted, "I had expected this ending for myself, and I had been looking forward to this ending. I borrowed him to take revenge. , let myself fall out of favor, otherwise how can I be worthy of the queen?"
"But..." Mingyu looked at her worriedly, "Why are you crying?"
Wei Yingluo was stunned, raised her hand and touched her cheek, her fingertips were slightly hot, which were tears.
"Why am I crying?" She looked at the tears at her fingertips, feeling unbelievable to herself.
Obviously she has already got her revenge, she has already got what she wanted, why...she felt so uncomfortable in her heart
Mingyu looked at her with pity, took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears. The tears were like rain outside the window. The rain couldn't stop. She sighed. Putting his head on his shoulders, he said softly, "Cry if you want to. I will accompany you. Even if the emperor never comes again in the future, even if the Yanxi Palace becomes a cold palace, at least I will always be with you."
"What nonsense?" Wei Yingluo leaned on her shoulder and choked, "You still want to get married."
"Don't marry." Ming Yuguo decided.
"Then the forehead wipe that you gave to Hailancha a few days ago, isn't it for nothing?"
"Just treat him as cheap!"
Hatred gives people infinite power, and can make people do many things that they couldn't do before, but when great hatred is avenged, people lose their goals, and their hearts are empty, except for the ashes of lovers and the ashes of enemies, nothing is left. Down.
Some people couldn't make it through the night and looked for a short-term meeting.
Thanks to Mingyu's company, Wei Yingluo made it through.
After dawn, she summoned the palace servants of Yanxi Palace. Before the news of her falling out of favor spread, she used the remaining power in her hand to transfer this group of people to other places. Only Mingyu and Xiaoquanzi refused to leave.
Helpless to leave the two behind, Wei Yingluo looked back at Yuan Chunwang: "Brother, please accompany me to a place."
