a pillow in autumn

Above the palace, the twilight has already dimmed.

The winter wind is bitter and cold, and the palace lanterns hanging from the corners of the eaves are stirred, and the shadows of people are shaking, and everything is depressed.

Two rows of guards with knives walked across from each other in the corridor. The two leaders looked at each other as if there was no expression on their faces, but there was a little panic in their eyes.

Quan Jingan, the head of the palace, stood outside the emperor's bedroom with his hands in his sleeves, listening to the movement inside quietly with his ears pricked up. He had no choice but to go from the gate of the bedroom to the inner hall, and there was a wide outer hall and flower hall in between. Naturally, there was no sound at all.

In the warm pavilion of the inner hall, Zhou Muyu sat sideways on the edge of the bed.

The emperor opened his eyes slightly, his face covered with a layer of decadent ashes.

Both he and he knew that this life might be just a breath away.

"Crown Princess." Zhou Muyu smiled and said, "Brother Huang still remembers her? It's not in vain that she treats you with deep affection."

Zhou Muchen turned his head sideways, and said word by word, slowly: "Whose way is she in the way? Is it Mu Ye, or you?"

Zhou Muyu's eyebrows twitched, took a deep breath, and replied: "Forget it. Let me explain it to you. It's just Yuxi, you promised me, and now you are still the emperor. You must know that you are not joking."

Zhou Muchen didn't move, just looked at him.

"That day in Jinyu Palace, Concubine Meng came to tell Father, Liu Debao heard rumors in the palace that you married the illegitimate daughter of the sinful minister, Prince Cheng, and accompanied her to Yizhou to honor her mother's filial piety. Father Ben was seriously ill and almost died of anger. But how did he know that Liu Debao had been bribed by Concubine Meng and Zhou Muye a long time ago, the palace couldn't see it, but his family was a chicken and a dog ascended to heaven, all thanks to the support of Lady Meng, mother and son , By the way, there used to be General Meng Xiang, and this time, they really are in cahoots." Zhou Muyu sneered.

The silver charcoal in the brazier had been burnt out, the earth dragon was not thriving, and gradually felt a chill, Zhou Muchen only felt that his body was getting colder, as if the darkness of that lifetime invaded without bounds, he half-closed his eyes tiredly.

Zhou Muyu didn't pay attention either, he thought of these things over the years, and his straightforward methods, and he was still a little complacent: "That night, my father passed out, and the whole hall was full of people kneeling, thinking that my father would not wake up, How could I know that the imperial hospital was not full of waste, and even revived the father again, wouldn't Concubine Meng Gui's thoughts be in vain now, how could she be willing." He tilted his head and continued with a smile: "So She got a little servant to report to me, and let me try to take care of the princess, but if it falls on you, the emperor will definitely get sicker and sicker, and your reputation will be ruined and ruined. This is really true Killing two birds with one stone. Hahahahaha!"

"What future did she promise you? You are the royal father's own son. As long as you don't make mistakes and can't escape the glory and wealth, Concubine Meng Gui can buy you off?" Although he was asking, Zhou Muchen's tone was cold. Not the slightest bit intense.

Zhou Muyu said: "She promised me a future. She said that as long as Zhou Muye ascended the throne, she would give me the honor of a jade-collared lord. Hehe, that stupid woman, do I really believe her? Zhou Muye's narrow-minded, if Let him ascend the throne as the emperor, there is no room for me."

"But you still helped them."

Zhou Muyu shook his head and said, "Brother Emperor, you are wrong. I have never helped Zhou Muye. Everything I did was just for my own sake. The Crown Princess took her unborn baby on the water in Cuiguang Lake And died, father was really mad at you. Both civil and military officials in the court criticized it. Zhou Muye and Concubine Meng even made a big fuss about this, and met you in battle. Brother emperor, do you know that I saw you two tigers facing each other How happy I was to fight. At that time, Zhou Muye led several times his troops against you, so why couldn’t he take you down? If he was the one who came back victorious, I wouldn’t have to worry about so many things later. People put Zhou Mubai in a few books, trying to think of a way to get your Imperial Physician Pei away, I spent so much effort, but you still didn't kill Zhou Mubai, her life is really terrible."

The more he talked, the more excited he got, slowly stood up, looking down at the dying emperor on the dragon couch.

"If it's Zhou Muye who came back from victory, do you think you can still live to this day? It's me, too soft-hearted, caring about brotherhood..."

"Hahahahaha! Brother, if I am not certain of victory, would I look forward to Zhou Muye's return to court? In the past two years, you have checked Liu Debao, Li Pei, and even a few court ladies around Concubine Meng. They are all dead. But there is one more person, an insignificant but vital person, Concubine Meng missed it back then, and you, too." Zhou Muyu sneered with determination: "Brother Huang But remember what I said just now, Concubine Meng sent a servant to report to me and asked me to take care of the Crown Princess. That servant has always been in my hands. I promised the wealth of his whole family, and perhaps the death of his whole family. There is no complete body, it depends on how he chooses. If it was Zhou Muye who won the victory and returned to the court, I just need to bring this person to the Chengjin Palace, and he will naturally confess that he killed the crown princess, and the person who caused him is Zhou Muye Mother and son, tell me, will Zhou Muye still be able to sit on this dragon chair by then?"

"So... Crown Princess... Wei Jincheng... was killed by you..."

This is hardly a question anymore, but a narrative.

Zhou Muyu was still stunned, his heart was beating very fast.He has many lives on his hands, but that's what he ordered his men to do.Only this one, only this ex-princess who was innocent to him and everyone else, was killed by him himself.

He murmured for a while, seeing that there was no one else in the room, he finally gritted his teeth and squinted his eyes, and said solemnly: "Yes! I pushed her into Cuiguang Lake and watched her drown. She still wants to call someone, but I can't help it." I had no choice but to jump down and smother her to death. Brother Huang, don’t blame me. I couldn’t do anything at the time. If I didn’t kill her, Concubine Meng Gui would kill me. This is the only way to do it!"

He had finished speaking, but Zhou Muchen remained silent.He stood there for a moment, then suddenly realized that he rushed over and grabbed Zhou Muchen's collar with the sea dragon pattern, and shouted in a panic and sullen way: "Brother Huang! Don't rush to die. If you say you have to listen to the truth, you have to listen to the truth." I’ve told you everything I know, where’s Yuxi?! Take it out!!”

Zhou Muchen's eyes were closed, his face was lifeless, Zhou Muyu became more and more panicked, he shook him vigorously, his voice changed: "Brother Huang, brother Huang, where is Yuxi? Give it to me, I won't kill your son. "

"Cough, cough, cough." Zhou Muchen coughed for a while after being shaken by him.

Zhou Muyu was so frightened that his back felt chills, he didn't dare to use force, he let go of his hand slowly, and said in a low voice, "Brother Huang, where is Yuxi?"

The emperor's eyes were already blurred, and his voice was intermittent. Zhou Muyu lowered his body and heard his anger go loose, "Fifth brother, you killed my first wife and angered my father to death... You kill your father and king, death is not a pity... "

Zhou Muyu's face changed color, and he pushed the emperor away violently, only to see the emperor laughing, with a strange expression on his face, and his voice increased: "Look, father is calling you... look... father Emperor..."

The carved door of the Nuan Pavilion in the inner hall was suddenly pushed open, Zhou Muyu jumped up in shock, turned around, and saw Quan Jing'an running in, jumping at his feet and screaming : "Your Highness! Prince Rui! Prince Rui led troops to kill!"

"Impossible!" Zhou Muyu was terrified in his eyes, but he forced himself to calm down and said, "Where did she get the soldiers? When she entered the capital, she obviously didn't bring troops with her, so how could she bring soldiers into the palace?"

Quan Jing'an cried: "It's the three hundred soldiers from the Princess's mansion! Prince Rui also brought the palace's personal guards with him, they have already killed the palace gate!"

"Zhou! Mu! Song!" Zhou Muyu gritted his teeth, took two steps in a panic, and said to himself: "Three hundred soldiers, don't be afraid, the lonely king also has three hundred guards, guarding the palace, enough to resist. Hurry up! Quickly call the Teng Snake!"

"Master Teng is in the side hall, this servant will pass him on." Quan Jing'an stumbled and ran out.

After a while, Teng Snake knocked on the door and came in.

Zhou Muyu stood in the outer hall, staring at him and said: "Tengshe, you just returned to the capital yesterday, and the matter here is urgent, and I can't prepare for it. The matter entrusted by the lonely king to you is related to our country and society."

"His Royal Highness saved Teng Snake's life. If His Highness has something to do, just follow orders."

"Okay! You have also seen that Prince Rui has brought people into the palace gate, intending to kill the king and seek rebellion! The lonely king ordered you to lead the twelve personal guards of Prince Wen's mansion, and guard the outer hall of the palace to protect His Majesty!"

"My minister takes orders!" Tengshe knelt on one knee and cupped her hands in response.

"Your Highness! Your Highness!!" Just as Teng Snake went out, Quan Jing'an quickly ran in again.

Zhou Muyu stood in the carved door, with one hand on his heart that was beating fast.

Quan Jing'an knelt down in front of him and said with a mournful face: "Your Highness, I heard that the ministers are also here. Are you following?"

Zhou Muyu's face paled in panic, "Zhou Muge actually has such a great ability?"

"No, this time it's not the eldest princess, but...it's Prince Rui." Quan Jing'an almost prostrated himself on the ground, and said with a trembling voice: "The palace people who came back to spread the word said that Prince Rui has an imperial decree in his hand. , Your Majesty invites her back to the capital, to consolidate the country, and to be on the side of Qing Jun!"

"Imperial decree?!" Zhou Muyu swayed and murmured, "Imperial decree... By the way, the lonely king also has imperial decree... Jade seal... Jade seal of the lonely king!"

He turned around, ran across the flower hall in a few steps, rushed to the dragon couch, and grabbed Zhou Muchen's pajamas: "Brother Emperor! Where's the jade seal?! Give me the jade seal!!!"

Let him shake again and again, Zhou Muchen never opened his eyes again.

Zhou Muyu yelled for a while, and suddenly realized something, he tremblingly stretched out a finger, and put it under Zhou Muchen's nose, where it was quiet and there was no life at all.

"Ha..." Zhou Muyu shook his hand, let go of the bright yellow skirt, and shrank back.

Quan Jing'an knelt a few steps away, looked at his expression, and understood a little bit.With a trembling voice, he said, "Your Highness... Your Highness..."

Zhou Muyu turned around in a daze.

The silver charcoal in the brazier had disappeared at some point.Outside the cold bedroom, there was a loud killing sound.
