Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 659 Death (2)

   In the middle of the night, I was awakened when I was sleeping soundly.

   Empress Dowager Zhao was full of anger and unhappiness, and asked angrily, "Didn't the messenger say what happened in Wenhua Palace?"

  The palace staff replied tremblingly: "The person who delivered the letter is the personal soldier beside the Crown Princess. He only said that the Crown Princess invited the Queen Mother to go immediately, and said nothing else."

  Princess?

   Empress Dowager Zhao's sleepiness suddenly disappeared, and her eyes were full of surprise.

   In the middle of the night, Lu Mingyu was not staying in the East Palace, why did he go to the Wenhua Palace?

  What happened in Wenhua Hall?

   Empress Dowager Zhao's temples jumped up suddenly, she was suddenly out of breath, and her face turned pale. The palace servant stepped forward and patted the back of the Queen Mother Zhao.

   Empress Dowager Zhao took a few deep breaths: "Serve Ai's family to change clothes, Ai's family will go to Wenhua Hall to have a look."

   Compared with Empress Dowager Zhao, Queen Qiao trusts Lu Mingyu wholeheartedly. As soon as the message was delivered, Queen Qiao woke up immediately and left the Jiaofang Hall without a word.

  The palace staff was holding the palace lantern in front, Cailan supported Queen Qiao. Queen Qiao frowned, the bad premonition in her heart was getting stronger and faster, and her pace was getting faster and faster.

   Queen Qiao hurried all the way and arrived at the Wenhua Hall one step earlier than the Queen Mother Zhao. It happened that Liang Dalang, whose eyes were flushed with tears, came out.

  Empress Qiao glanced, and a heart suddenly raised in her throat: "General Liang, what happened in the Wenhua Palace?"

   Liang Dalang, an eight-footed man, thumped to his knees, his hoarse voice trembling: "Qi to the Empress, the Emperor... is dead!"

   Queen Qiao's eyes turned dark and her body shook.

   Cailan also turned pale in an instant, and her men supported Queen Qiao's shaky phoenix body with all her strength.

   Queen Qiao leaned on Cailan's body, breathing rapidly, wanted to open her mouth, but couldn't say a word. Tears welled up in Cailan's eyes: "Niangniang! Niangniang's condolences!"

  Queen Qiao closed her eyes hard, covered her heart with her hands, gasped sharply, opened her eyes slowly, and squeezed out a few words: "What the **** is going on?"

   Liang Dalang choked and reported in a low voice: "It was the first prince's unexpected hand. His highness fascinated my father with a drug, killed Eunuch Liu, and then attacked the emperor..."

   Before he finished speaking, the Queen Mother Zhao also went outside the hall.

Empress Dowager Zhao hurried over all the way, her face was very ugly, and then looked at the guards of the royal forest who were kneeling on the ground, Empress Qiao, who was about to faint, and Liang Dalang, who was tearful, and the tight string in Empress Zhao's head buzzed. Cut off.

   "What happened?" Empress Dowager Zhao thought she was calm, but she actually shouted hysterically.

  Liang Dalang gritted his teeth and repeated what he had said before: "The Empress Dowager, His Highness the eldest prince had a bad heart, and took the drug into the bedroom and killed his father. The emperor, has died!"

   Empress Dowager Zhao suddenly laughed as if she was listening to some funny joke: "You are quite courageous. How dare you make fun of the emperor's safety."

   "Li Yi's child was raised by Aijia's family. He is just a little bit more arrogant, and he likes to be strong in everything. However, he is also a filial child. How could he do anything to his own father?"

   "In the middle of the night, you dare to joke about such things, Aijia won't spare you."

   and said to the pale Queen Qiao: "Queen, the emperor has a long blessing, and nothing will happen. Don't have the virtue of being a widow."

   Although he is laughing, the laughter is worse than the cry.

   Empress Qiao and Empress Dowager Zhao have been in-laws and daughters-in-law for more than 20 years. At this time, seeing Empress Dowager Zhao's refusal to believe the appearance of forced calm, Empress Qiao's heart was extremely painful.

   Queen Qiao tried her best to open her mouth: "Daughter-in-law and mother-in-law go in together."

   Emperor Yongjia is dead or alive, you can tell at a glance.

But Empress Dowager Zhao refused to enter: "It's so late, and the Aijia is very sleepy, so I have to go back to sleep first. Don't go in either, go back to the Jiaofang Palace. When it is dawn tomorrow, Aijia and you will come to see the emperor again. "

   After saying that, he took a trembling step. Before taking two steps, he fell straight down.

   The palace servants beside him exclaimed and supported the Empress Dowager Zhao.

   Empress Dowager Zhao fainted.

Queen Qiao's nose was full of sourness, she wiped her eyes hard, and whispered: "Helping the queen mother into the palace, Xuan Tai doctor came over, and immediately gave the queen mother acupuncture. When the queen mother woke up, she helped the queen mother into the emperor's bedroom. "

   Then, with the help of Cai Lan, he entered the Wenhua Hall.

   The closer you got to the bedroom, the heavier Queen Qiao's footsteps became.

   She and Yongjia Emperor have been married for more than 20 years, and they have never had any affection. He doted on the Meng family for many years, and later he fell in love with the young Wang Jieyu and Su nobleman Yang Concubine, and became more indifferent to her, the queen.

   She also thought about it. The relationship between husband and wife is weak, so don't read about the relationship between husband and wife. Just make do with it!

   No matter how angry or angry she was, she never expected him to die early.

   Outside the dormitory door, the cries of everyone came clearly into the ears. The disgusting **** smell also drifted into the nostrils.

   Queen Qiao went into the bedroom slowly with a pale face.

  Lu Mingyu had been waiting for a long time. He stepped forward and held Queen Qiao's cold hand: "My father has passed away, and my mother, please mourn."

   Queen Qiao looked at Lu Mingyu, tears pouring out uncontrollably. She whispered almost begging: "Mingyu, are you lying to me? Is your father not dead at all?"

  Lu Mingyu was ruthless, and helped Queen Qiao behind the screen: "Queen Mother, see for yourself!"

   Queen Qiao's gaze fell on the dragon couch.

  Emperor Yongjia has been dying for more than an hour, the corpse has gradually stiffened, and his face is glowing with death blue. The bruises on the neck have turned blue-black.

   Queen Joe's body shook again.

   "Queen Mother!" Lu Mingyu grabbed Queen Qiao's arm and whispered quickly, "Now the Queen Mother must stabilize the overall situation, and the Queen Mother must support her."

  The emperor died suddenly, and the only person in the palace who could take charge was Queen Qiao.

   No matter how powerful she is, she has suffered from the loss of her status. The father-in-law is dead, and there is no reason for a daughter-in-law to be the head of the family. Therefore, Queen Qiao must not fall. At least, it has to last until Li Jing returns to Beijing.

  Queen Qiao's lips kept shaking, unable to squeeze out a word at all, and tears kept falling.

  Lu Mingyu was heartbroken, and her eyes were red.

   After some time, there was movement at the door.

   Empress Dowager Zhao, who was rescued by acupuncture, came in with the help of the palace servants.

Empress Dowager Zhao walked tremblingly to the side of the dragon couch and sat down, leaned over and hugged Emperor Yongjia's corpse into her arms, murmuring: "Ayuan, they are all blind, you are fine, they insisted that you died already."

   "I know, you are tired. Over the years, you have led troops to fight everywhere, and after that, you have worked **** political affairs every day. You haven't had a happy birthday."

   "You have a good night's sleep. Wake up after dawn. Mother is watching over you, and no one wants to touch you with a finger."
