Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

After an hour, the husband and wife had the opportunity to sit and talk together.

Qingmei served the tea and consciously exited the small study.

Brother Yu is already asleep, and the two can talk quietly.

Gu Jiu nestled on Ruan Tuan, holding Ruan Ruan's pillow and a cup of tea, and asked, How are things busy?

It's almost there, and you can force the truth out with one more push.

Forcing it? Gu Jiu was a little surprised, Forcing who?

Liu Zhao's eyes flashed a stern look, and then he said, Naturally, it is to force Uncle Yan, Uncle Zhao, and Concubine Xue Gui.

Oh!

Gu Jiu understood.

Are you sure they were involved in the plan to kidnap me?

Even if you don't participate, you must know the truth. Even the father-in-law was taken into custody at Dali Temple, I'm afraid it has nothing to do with them.

Gu Jiu snorted, I thought so too. I heard that the reason why King Yan participated in King Zhao's plan and helped King Zhao seize the power of Jingxiying was to avenge Concubine Li De's humiliation of his mother?

Exactly! Uncle Yan is not on the throne, but revenge. Concubine Xue Gui took advantage of this to convince Uncle Yan to help Zhou.

Liu Zhao told the story in a straightforward manner, but he could hear a little regret and unbearableness from it.

Gu Jiu looked at him, Are you pity King Yan?

Liu Zhao sat down next to her, King Yan is not bad for our juniors.

He didn't say how good it was, and Gu Jiu didn't delve into it.

I have wronged you these days, and I want you to find a way to deal with those rumors. Liu Zhao felt a little guilty.

He was busy investigating the case, pressing for the truth, and just thinking about dealing with those rumors when he was done with his work. He thought that by protecting Gu Jiu under his wings, their mother and son would not be hurt by rumors.

Now he realized that he was wrong.

Gu Jiu laughed, I'm not wronged. From the beginning, I knew what I was going to face, and I figured out how to solve it. The reason why I didn't discuss it with you is because I really enjoyed you acting for me. The feeling of being in charge. You are in charge of everything, I just need to eat and wait to die, it doesn't feel bad.

Liu Zhao: Xiaojiu's thoughts are so strange.

Completely incomprehensible.

Yet he was happy.

Because of his protection, he did not bring any burden to Gu Jiu.

Eat and wait to die, it doesn't sound good. But how many people in this world can eat and wait for a lifetime?

Blessed are those who can eat and wait for the rest of their lives without worrying about everything.

Even if it's not a big rich, it's a small rich family.

Are you really happy? he asked.

Gu Jiu nodded.

If that's the case, why do you have to work hard to deal with the mother-in-law. The mother-in-law has a rather grumpy temper, gets angry, and speaks very unpleasantly. You must have suffered a lot.

Gu Jiu laughed, Because I'm born to work hard. It's okay to rest for a few days, but I can't do it for the rest of my life. I can't do it. I'm idle anyway. I came forward to settle the matter. It can also be considered to lighten the burden for you.

Liu Zhao said solemnly: It's not to lighten a little burden for me, but to lighten a great burden for me.

Gu Jiu laughed, I'm very capable.

I know.

My little Jiu is the most capable woman.

He hugged her tightly.

How do you convince your mother-in-law to stand up for you?

I told her that if you want to be the emperor, you have to show courage, and you must not sit on the ground and continue to spread rumors.

Liu Zhao was surprised. Did the mother concubine also think about that position?

He also thought that the concubine hadn't thought about that position in the palace.

Gu Jiu bit her lip, It's all at this point, in the middle of the game, who can't be careful. Is it possible that you men are allowed to be ambitious, and women are not allowed to be ambitious?

Of course not. I just never considered the position of the mother and the Weiyang Palace together.

You can start thinking now.

Father's odds are not great.

It doesn't matter. It's a way of life for the king to get that position. It's a way of life if you can't get that position. No matter which way of life, my goal will not change, and I will continue the project outside the South City Gate. Do it.

Liu Zhao nodded.

Xindao Xiaojiu is not only ambitious, but also very free and easy, better than him.

Sometimes he just can't see it.

...

Xingqing Palace.

Chen Dachang dragged his wounds and came to serve in the palace.

He bowed and stood at the head of the bed, Report to Your Majesty, Concubine Xue wants to see His Majesty. She said that only after seeing His Majesty can she tell the truth. At that time, she will know everything and say everything.

The emperor raised his hand, and several servants stepped forward, helped him up, and sat on the head of the bed.

The emperor coughed lightly, She wants to see me, what does she want to say?

She didn't say anything, she just offered to see His Majesty.

The emperor frowned, What's the situation with King Zhao now?

King Zhao was ordered to cut off his right hand by the son, and the imperial physician saved his life, but he was depressed and begged for death.

The emperor smiled coldly, Forcing the palace to rebel, and dare to kill the king. It's not that easy to want to die. I ordered to go on, hang King Zhao's life, and don't allow him to die. Before I let him die, he can't die. I will tell him this.

Old slave obeys. Where is Concubine Xue?

Bring her to see me. I also want to know what she wants to say.

Chen Dachang bowed and took orders, and sent people to arrange item by item.

In the middle of the night, everything is quiet.

The sky and the earth are shrouded in darkness, and most of the people have fallen into a dark dreamland.

In the palace, Xiao Huangmen flew forward with a person.

Looking closely, the man's limbs were tied and he couldn't move.

The person with the lantern in front led the way to Xingqing Palace. After checking the password, he was put into Xingqing Palace.

Inside the palace, the lights are bright.

The emperor has not fallen asleep yet, he is waiting for a person, a woman.

It was brought and thrown on the carpet.

It was Concubine Xue Gui.

How could Concubine Xue be so arrogant during the rebellion, tortured for days, now she is a gray-haired old woman.

The emperor looked at her, as if not recognizing it.

After taking a closer look, I saw a familiar side from the old facial features.

The emperor hesitated for a moment, and said, Untie her.

The two little Huangmen stepped forward and released Xue Guifei.

The emperor did not deprive her of her title, and now she is still Concubine Xue, but she is a concubine who is inferior to being a prisoner.

The word noble concubine is a great ridicule to her.

Once she was free, Concubine Xue rubbed her sore arm. Being bound for a long time, the limbs have become rigid.

She sat on the ground with her head lowered, her body no longer healthy and upright. Now, she is a poor old woman. But it also comes with a snake heart.

You want to see me, and now that you see me, why don't you speak? The emperor asked aloud, with a rare calm.

No hatred, no fury, no killing.

Only calm.

Concubine Xue Gui was obviously surprised by the emperor's reaction, so she raised her head and looked at him.

Hehe...hehe...

Xue Guifei let out an incoherent laugh.

What are you laughing at? Tianzi asked.

Concubine Xue rubbed her red and swollen wrist, I'm laughing at how old we are.

Tianzi frowned, If you just want to say this, you can go.

You killed him, right?

Concubine Xue Gui's turbid eyes instantly became unparalleled, as if a rebellion in the imperial palace. An unsheathed sword, even if the blade is cut off, still possesses terrifying lethality.

In the palace, from Chen Dachang down, everyone is like a great enemy.

The emperor pretended to be stupid, Who are you talking about?

Concubine Xue Gui sneered again and again, I'm asking you, did you kill our eldest son? Is it because he was smart since he was a child and was highly valued by the minister of civil and military affairs, so you became jealous. You took advantage of the cold of the child to kill him. .

The emperor narrowed his eyes, You believe in Empress Cui, but you won't believe me?

Concubine Xue Gui smiled indifferently, Because she is already dead, the dead will not harm me.

The emperor sighed, That was an accident.

Concubine Xue Gui angrily said, What accident? You clearly killed my son, my eldest son, the smartest prince. You have such a vicious heart. Now, are you still unwilling to admit it?

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, What do you think? His life was given by me, and I want his life, who would dare to say no.

Concubine Xue Gui laughed, Then I want your life, it is only right and proper.

You are presumptuous! The emperor scolded angrily.

Concubine Xue Gui smiled contemptuously, I have nothing to say about success and failure. It's just God's eyes that allow you to live until now.

The emperor's anger rose, I only let you live to this day by thinking about the old relationship. You don't want to know what's good or bad.

Concubine Xue Gui looked indifferent, pursed her lips, and looked serious.

Your Majesty, let's make a deal.

You are not qualified to negotiate a deal with me. Don't forget your identity, you are just a prisoner now.

Concubine Xue Gui laughed, her eyes wandered, and she could still see her past demeanor vaguely.

Your Majesty doesn't want to know who is behind the kidnapping case? Don't you want to know how many people Empress Ruizhen Cui left behind to hide in the dark? Don't you want to know how the prince died?

The emperor's expression changed drastically, and the atmosphere in the palace suddenly became suffocating.

The air seemed to freeze.

you know?

Although I don't know everything, I can guide your Majesty, the right way.

What do you want?

Let alone King Zhao, let go of the Xue family. The Xue family did not participate in the palace change. The Xue family was just implicated by me innocently.

The emperor sneered, Without the secret help of the Xue family, King Zhao couldn't even take a single soldier from the Jingxi battalion.

Then how are you going?

Tell me everything you know, and I will deal with it as appropriate.

Concubine Xue slowly shook her head, Unless Your Majesty decrees that the Xue family and Zhao Wang's family will be exempted, the courtiers and concubines will not say a word. I might as well tell your majesty that in this world, the only people who know these secrets are the courtiers and concubines. If I die, these secrets will also be taken underground and become unsolvable secrets.

Are you threatening me?

I'm just negotiating conditions with Your Majesty. Letting go of the Xue family and Zhao Wang's family is just a trivial matter for His Majesty. As for me, after telling all my secrets, I will cut myself off from your world.

The Son of Heaven gave her a deep look, You must know that I have countless ways to force you to speak.

Concubine Xue Gui moved her brows and eyes slightly, Your Majesty can try it and see if you can take out a truth from my mouth. You can come to Jinwuwei and Shenxing Division again.

you……

Concubine Xue held her head high, and she was arrogant at this moment.

Even if you are a prisoner, you must be a prisoner who controls the overall situation.
