HOG _ Chapter - 62
Love hate
It's been three days since Xiang Honghui came out of the East Palace, and the palace is very silent. With a light smile on the corner of his mouth, he calmly walked into the queen's palace under the weird eyes of the guards. Then, seeing that she was the only one inside, he closed the door, leaving everyone outside the door looking at each other.
The queen had expected him to come, and she didn't fall asleep. The palace was brightly lit. She sat on a luxurious chair in the main hall, wearing the queen's formal dress, and said softly: "You know everything.”
"Do you mean my mother's business or theirs?”
"Both.”
Xiang Honghui nodded: "Then I know everything," He had just drunk a lot of wine with the crown prince, the light in his eyes fainted slightly, and he couldn't see the slightest emotion. He whispered, "I'm in a bad mood now."
"I know.”
"I don't like being calculated like this.”
"I know too.”
Xiang Honghui looked up at her, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and his expression was almost demon: "When I came here, I poisoned the crown prince. There is only one antidote. No one knows where it is except me. Are you satisfied?”
The queen's expression changed slightly, and finally returned to business as usual, with a faint sigh: "I will be happier if you poison him to death. You will definitely not survive if he dies. I will go with you. What I owe you in this life will be paid back to you in the next life.”
Xiang Honghui let out a sigh of relief: "You really hate my father.”
The most ruthless emperor's family, the only affection that the father had was given to his mother, but it was a pity that his mother had a weak life.
He was still young at the time, and he couldn't see many things thoroughly. He only knew that his mother had dystocia and the child she gave birth could not be saved. His aunt was also pregnant at the time. She was shocked when she heard about this. She gave birth in a hurry before she was full term, but due to premature birth, there were originally two fetuses in the abdomen. Only one survived, which is now the crown prince.
The aunt was not favored, but at that time, his mother went away, the youngest son was raised by her, she herself because of the mother's affairs, the loss of a child, his father had to come here, she is the mother's own sister, naturally, there is a bit of a resemblance between the eyebrows, not to mention that she knows a lot of interesting things in childhood, and can talk to the father a lot of words.
It was then that my aunt gradually became favored.
It's not that Xiang Honghui doesn't miss her upbringing, but some things become heart disease when he thinks too much. He always wonders if there is another secret about the death of his mother, but he has never been able to find the insider, but in the past few days, he suddenly became concerned, and he knew that his aunt was ready to let go.
After he returned to Zenan, his aunt's eyebrows became gloomier. He could understand it. After all, even he could tell that there was a problem between the crown prince and his father. In addition, on the day of the banquet, he saw a bright yellow dress at the corner where the prince left. This further confirmed what he was thinking, and for a moment he felt that it was extremely absurd.
Even he thought so. His aunt didn't have to say it. He thought she wanted to pick apart the events of the year. Anyway, his father didn't love her. It's better to let him hate her. With the crown prince in the middle, his father couldn't really kill her, but it wasn't until those people confessed that he found out that he was wrong.
Those people knew that their fate was not long away, and they quickly recruited in order to avoid the suffering of flesh and blood. An old story surfaced. He was mentally prepared, but when he heard something unexpected, he finally couldn't control it: "What did you say?”
"Back to your highness, when Li Guifei (his mother) really difficult to birth, but not to the point of death," the old eunuch kneeling on the ground straight shivering, "and Li Guifei gave birth to not dead baby. That dead baby is from outside the palace, the Queen's abdomen is only a fetus, premature birth is also intentional, your highness, you want to think, back then, if you don't say that it is dead baby, according to the Emperor's affection for Li Guifei, Li Guifei to go to the little prince will certainly have to be personally raised in the side, by the time the Empress's son will not be able to meet His Majesty's eyes. ......"
"This king know," Xiang Honghui whispered,, "so she deliberately gave birth to two children early, but after all, they are not really twins, and when they grow up, they will be able to see the flaws, and she wanted to kill the mother's child, but unfortunately, the sky did not meet the wishes of man, and her own son really died because of the premature birth, is not it?”
The eunuch seemed to have seen a ghost: "Your Highness...how do you know that the crown prince is the parent-child of Li Guifei?”
Xiang Honghui didn't answer and asked, "Does the crown prince look like his mother?"
The old eunuch was taken aback and nodded: "Your Highness said that is true. The crown prince is more like the Princess Li of that year than you.”
Xiang Honghui closed his eyes, his hands trembling slightly with anger. He quickly got rid of these people and went into the palace to find the crown prince for a drink. Then, without surprise, he found that the woman had told the crown prince the truth.
"You know that if I learn that my brother has been ruined by my father, I will definitely not give up, and if I offend my father, it is a capital crime, so you tell the crown prince the truth," Xiang Honghui said softly, "Not to mention the brotherhood between him and me for many years. Now that I know that I am his own brother, I can't let my father kill me. In this way, the father is caught between the two of our brothers. There is really no good life. You tortured our father and son with one plan.”
The queen didn't answer, so she took the knife in her sleeve and cut her wrist open: "But do you still have something to ask?”
"Now that you have calculated it, why did you send someone to stop me in the first place?”
The queen sighed: "I didn't want to be like this. I knew about them before you went to Shenghua. You are so smart. You will find out after a long time. I am afraid that you will annoy your father one day. Instead of letting him order you to be killed, it is better for me to bear this crime. I stopped you twice and wanted you to stay in Shenghua. Who knew you came back," She paused, sighed again, and murmured, "I was discovered by your father when I moved too much. He said I was too nosy and took the Phoenix Bead away by the way. Yes, if he wants to be nice to one person, he will never see other people again. I knew it before, but I was too stupid at that time, thinking that he would one day put his mind on me, and now..."
Xiang Honghui couldn't help but answer: "I completely gave up on him.”
The queen was silent.
Xiang Honghui looked at her: "After so many years, you still can't beat my mother after all..."
The queen was not annoyed either, and smiled faintly: "Sister, she is good at everything. She treats people tenderly and is a talented woman. Everyone likes her. My sister loves me. She knows that I also have feelings for the emperor. Sometimes she deliberately pushes the emperor towards me. If it weren't for her..., How could I be pregnant, sister, she is kind-hearted..." As she said this, tears rushed out of her eyes, she gently wiped it off with her sleeve, her left hand was still resting on the armrest, blood slowly overflowed from her wrist, quickly soaking the carpet, her face turned pale and said softly, "My sister is actually not suitable for living in the palace, and neither am I. I wanted to find a beloved, a husband and a son, but unfortunately, I didn't have this life..."
She murmured in a low voice, and the next words were quickly inaudible. She slowly closed her eyes, leaned back, and did not move for a long time, as if she was asleep. The queen dress was dressed on her body, noble and inviolable.
This person has only been gentle and cruel twice in his life, and they are all for a man, one is to get him, and the other is to retaliate.
Xiang Honghui looked quietly, knelt down and kowtowed her two times respectfully to thank him and his brother for their upbringing. He opened the door and went out. There was a eunuch standing outside. When he saw him, he respectfully said, "Your Highness, the emperor invites you to the imperial study.”
He sneered, raised his feet and left. When he stepped into the study, the guards in the palace happened to be ordered to surround Hongyang's palace. He couldn't help but chuckle: "What does this have to do with him?"
The monarch of Zenan took a sip of tea: "He is a restless person. He must come in and have a look when he hears that something happened in the palace. I want to be clean and clear, and I surrounded him. The little ones below didn't dare to make trouble casually after seeing it.”
Xiang Honghui responded and stood in the center of the study, unable to even salute. The monarch didn't care either: "Did you poison your second brother?”
"Yes.”
"Where's the queen? Dead?”
“Yes.”
The monarch was silent for a moment: "I only recently learned about the events of that year. Do you know everything?”
"Yes.”
"He is your own brother.”
Xiang Honghui smiled: "If he was not Erchen’s brother (Erchen: Xiang Honghuai have to represent his title as Erchen when he speak to his father), he would have wanted to avenge his mother's death, and Erchen would have exchanged the antidote for a chance to live, but he is, so Erchen won't give him the antidote, and instead of letting you spoil it, Erchen would rather kill him myself."
The monarch stared at him for a long time and then suddenly asked, "Did he take the poison voluntarily?"
Xiang Honghui was slightly startled, and then returned to his senses: "The poison was given by Erchen. He knew that Erchen was going to settle accounts with the queen, so he took it by himself, lest the queen die. You killed Erchen, who knew she killed herself, and who knew what happened back then. You actually know that he was really wronged by this poison..." He let out a sigh of relief, "She said she doesn't regret your affairs, but what about you, who do you think of her as? My mother died early. You treated her like this. How would my mother feel if you knew it, huh?”
"Your second brother is not anyone's stand-in, but your mother. I can't remember what she looks like. I said that... You are afraid that you will complain to me the same.”
Xiang Honghui did not answer and was silent for a long time.
The monarch asked, "Xiao Xi has just seen it, there is only one antidote?"
"It's okay to tell you, there is a dark pavilion in Shenghua Palace, and the antidote was thrown there by Erchen. If you have a way to find it within ten days, go.”
Not to mention that Shenghua Palace is not easy to enter. He doesn't know how long it will take to find that dark pavilion alone, let alone how many dark pavilions there are. The monarch didn't hold back for a while: "You..."
"Are you going to kill Erchen?”
"What do you want? This dragon chair?”
Xiang Honghui suddenly smiled: "Erchen thought about this chair for a while at first, but then Erchen was bored with the facts of the palace, so I gave it up. Erchen himself didn't want it. If you let the second brother, go... Would you like it?”
The early morning sun shone on the land again, and Genius Long stretched out his waist: "Six days..."
The corner of Yun Xian's mouth twitched: "Brother, I sympathize with you.”
Genius Long sighed faintly: "When will they come to save us?"
"I don't know, wait.”
Genius Long continued to sigh: "I don't have time to wait..." His gaze turned, and when he saw Tai Wenkuan sitting in a chair and looking at the door blankly, he couldn't help but ask, "You really never thought that he was killed by a bandit?"
Tai Wenkuan stiffened and said in a trembling voice: "He will definitely come to save me!”
Genius Long nodded: "Well, well, this kind of thing is sincere and spiritual.”
Tai Wenkuan bit his lip: "Anyway, I still have time to wait, so you don't have to.”
Yun Xian chuckled, Genius Long stared at him gloomily, and Tai Wenkuan shrank back silently, still unconvinced: "When the time comes, you will be poisoned to death, and I will see how you will bully me in the future.”
Yun Xian laughed even more happily: "Brother, the rabbit bites people when he is in a hurry. That's true.”
Genius Long was startled, unexpectedly not annoyed, but turned around Tai Wenkuan: "I suddenly have a way to try..."
Tai Wenkuan's heart throbbed with relief, and he subconsciously clutched his still painful stomach: "I don't believe you!”
"Really, it's absolutely reliable this time, but I don't know if you can be ruthless.”
Tai Wenkuan still didn't believe it, but Yun Xian was surprised: "What is it?”
"Bite your tongue and pretend to be sick and vomit blood. Do you think they will call a doctor? If they go to shout, they must send someone out. The secret guards are all strolling around at this moment, maybe they will meet.”
Yun Xian thought for a while: "But brother, what if there are medical skills among the bandits? Hmm?”
Genius Long shrank back silently.
Yun Xian smiled very beautifully: "My dear brother~ You are poisonous. Even if they have a doctor, they can't treat you. You must call another doctor, right?”
"......"
"Brother, you don't have much time to wait~"
Genius Long was suddenly resentful.
So, when the bandits came to deliver the meal, they saw one of them suddenly start to nibble, blood spilling out of the corners of his mouth, and the blood turned dark. He was suddenly shocked: "What's wrong with him?"
Yun Xian looked panicked, and he helped him and roared at the bandit: "Go and call the doctor. I am afraid that the poison has developed. Go quickly. If something happens to him when he is late, you can't get the money!”
The bandit didn't want to kill anyone, so he hurriedly went to find the leader. The latter was shocked when he heard the words and hurriedly came. The corners of Genius Long's mouth were still bleeding out. The color of the blood made people feel unknown. He was still waiting to exchange these people for a lot of money. Naturally, they couldn't let them have anything to do, but just in case. The man who knew a little medical skill in the village looked at it and: "Boss, he is really poisoned.”
The leader made a quick decision and hurriedly asked someone to call the doctor down the mountain. He paced back and forth in the room: "Will he be, okay?"
Yun Xian was upset by his shaking and said with a patient temper: "As long as he can calm the medicine within one day, he will be fine.”
"One day?" The leader couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and stayed for a while. Feeling that he couldn't help here, he asked someone to guard outside and left by himself.
Genius Long was lying on the bed dying, his tongue hurt so much that he couldn't even speak. He stared at the two people in the room angrily-I hate you.
Yun Xian hurriedly comforted: "Good boy, the doctor will be here in a while, you can bear it again, then, the blood is no longer flowing, what if the leader comes back, you can take another bite.”
"......"
There are many small roads outside Jianye City. A pair of man and woman walked slowly on one of the forks. The woman held a book in her hand and glanced at it occasionally, while the other hand was affectionately holding the man's arm. The man looked at the woman's face from time to time, his eyes complicated.
The woman smiled softly: "Xianggong (My husband), you have watched this slave all the way.”
The man was annoyed at the moment: "Don't speak in that voice!”
"Why? This slave is now in women's clothing, you used to like it, right.”
"..." The man gave up struggling and changed the subject, "Look at your map, are you sure there is something on this road?"
These two people are naturally Xiao Chong and Bai Lian. There are too many forks in the vicinity, and the secret guards can only find them separately. Xiao Chong chose one of them with many years of experience in bandits and pulled Bai Lian over. He glanced at the map sandwiched in the book and looked around again: "I'm not sure, I'm just guessing like this, let's take a look again.”
The two of them took another hundred steps forward. They raised their eyes and saw three people walking quickly in front of them. They couldn't help but be startled. The three of them were also startled when they saw them. Just about to ask why they were here, one of them suddenly exclaimed: "Medical book!”
Xiao Chong waited and looked at the book in his hand. He took it casually in the palace before leaving. Xiang Hongxi was proficient in medicine, and most of her books were medical books.
The man was overjoyed: "This lady is a doctor?”
Xiao Chong blinked and said lightly: "My ancestors practiced medicine for generations.”
"That's it, madam, can you let us save someone, he has been poisoned.”
Before Xiao Chong could answer, Bai Lian pulled him behind him and looked at them vigilantly: "Who are you?”
His reaction was completely reasonable. Even if the three of them had doubts in their hearts, they should be eliminated. They knew that they didn't look like good people, but they didn't care about anything else at the moment. If it was still impossible to persuade each other, they would just tie them up to the mountain.
Xiao Chong restrained Bai Lian: "Xianggong, my father once said that doctors put virtue first, how can they see death without saving them?”
"But they......"
"It's just that, let them go and have a look," Xiao Chong said, looking up, "Let's go."
The people were immediately grateful, and secretly said that this person was not good-looking, but he was a kind-hearted lord: "Thank you, madam.”
Bai Lian was still unwilling, but after all, he couldn't help him, so he had to follow.
