Chapter 153 Concubine Min's crime is unjust

Emperor Xia Jing was very strange, he found himself alone, walking in the blooming peach blossom grove, looking up, a piece of pleasant pink under the bright spring day, the petals fluttered without wind, but the peach blossom grove could not see the end.Suddenly, there was a clear and crisp laughter like a wind chime, which seemed to be in the ears and seemed to be ethereal and far away. Not only was it not scary but it was yearning.

This voice made him both familiar and unfamiliar, and an eager desire drove his steps towards the ringing of the bell. What was miraculous was that the originally endless peach blossom tree came to an end after only a few steps.

The place with a wide field of vision is a round stone table, but Xia Jingdi's eyes are firmly attracted by a woman in a light pink pleated palace dress, lightly applying makeup, smiling and looking around, against the brilliant peach blossoms, Like a fairy concubine.

She was holding a delicate medicinal pestle in her right hand, pounding all kinds of herbs carefully, her crystal and slender earrings swayed slightly with her movements, as if feeling a fiery gaze, she raised her head and stared in the direction of Emperor Xia Jing. , then put down the medicine pestle in his hand, Tingting stood where he was, with a bright and sweet smile, and called: "Your Majesty."

Emperor Xia Jing suddenly felt joy, he hurried forward, was about to answer, suddenly he stopped in his tracks, puzzled.

who is she?I like her so much, why can't I remember?Emperor Xia Jing became flustered.

Seeing Emperor Xia Jing hesitate, the woman's sweet and worry-free smile suddenly turned bitter and resentful, "Has the emperor forgotten his concubine?"

No, no, he didn't forget, what he should know, was on his lips, only...Xia Jingdi opened his mouth, but still couldn't call out that name.

The peach blossom grove in full bloom around him was suddenly in the distance, and the bright spring light seemed to be covered by a dark curtain. It was pitch black except for himself and the woman opposite, and the peach petals that came from nowhere were still flying and flying continuously.

Tears slowly fell from the woman's eyes, ran across her cheeks, and dripped down, like heavy stones hitting Emperor Xia Jing's heart.

"Why don't you believe me?" The soft and sad voice sounded, with endless sense of desolation and helplessness, "My family has practiced medicine for generations, just to save people. I have never thought of poisoning others. I don't know where the vicious poison comes from. , I am willing to personally try to find a solution, so that people will no longer suffer from its torment and hopelessness that cannot be cured, but I never thought that it would become a proof of criticism... Your Majesty, why don't you believe me, don't believe me!"

The woman's eyes showed sadness and despair, and she turned around and wept under the pain of her heart.

Xia Jingdi's depressed heart was followed by sadness.He believed her, how could she use "Lengmei" to harm others with her kind heart.

The doubts in his mind suddenly became more profound, why did he know that it was "Leng Mei", and who is this woman?

"No, Zhao Ye! You know I didn't do it, it was that bitch! She framed me, she murdered your child! Your concubine! Not me!"

A shrill and sharp voice came, and the white jade-like hands that covered the face were suddenly put down, and when he looked up, there were a pair of blood-red eyes on the soft and sad face, and the bright red and dazzling blood ran along the traces of tears. Downwards, flowing through the corners of the bright red lips, traces of black air gathered around her body, immediately turning into a hideous and distorted ghostly face.The elegant and elegant light pink dress was suddenly stained with blood...

"You killed me! You actually killed me!"

Emperor Xia Jing was shocked, his blood flowed back, his whole body was icy cold, he turned around and ran for his life with trembling lips, shouting as he ran in a panic, "Come on! Come on, come on! Help, help—"

He suddenly realized that no matter how hard he ran, he couldn't get out of this darkness. No matter how hoarse he was, no one else came. When he turned his head, he saw the female ghost tilting her head and mockingly looking at her panicked self. Her hands were bony and her knuckles were prominent. The nails were long and sharp, and the black fingertips gleamed with a faint light, and they rushed straight towards Emperor Xia Jing.

"Zhao Ye, let me be buried with you!"

Seeing that Fan Hei's fingertips touched his neck, Xia Jingdi was so frightened that he was about to spit out bile, he suddenly came to his mind and shouted: "No, Minmin—"

Suddenly, everything shattered and drifted away like a mirror surface...

"Emperor, Emperor!"

Suddenly, Emperor Xia Jing opened his eyes, the blur in front of his eyes gradually became clear, and he saw a bright yellow curtain above his head, then turned his face hastily, and saw the worried face of the Queen Mother.

The queen mother held a towel in her hand, as if she wanted to wipe it off for him, but now she stopped.

After a moment of stalemate, the handkerchief landed on Emperor Xia Jing's face, and he wiped it gently, "Emperor, you have a nightmare, and your face is covered with sweat."

In a word, Emperor Xia Jing, who was still holding his breath in horror, took a deep breath, and his stiff heart beat quickly, "Mother, I... I dreamed of Concubine Min... She hates me ..."

The queen mother did not speak, but sighed deeply, gently wiped off the fine cold sweat on his forehead, and did not rush to call the imperial physician in for diagnosis and treatment.

How could the events of that day escape the Queen Mother's ears.

There are many unjust cases in the harem, countless unjust souls, and only one voice is Amitabha.

"Mother, how long have I been in a coma?"

"Two days."

Seeing that the Empress Dowager didn't look anxious and anxious, it was obvious that everything inside and outside the palace was fine, Emperor Xia Jing also felt relieved.

The emperor's prestige gradually recovered, and Emperor Xia Jing summoned his father-in-law to come in, and said coldly: "The noble concubine has failed in her duties, took the position of noble concubine, demoted to concubine, bestowed the title of good, received the right to supervise the harem, and was temporarily managed by Concubine Shu. Xianfei... "

Emperor Xia Jing's voice was as cold as ice, "If you are thrown into the cold palace, you will never be pardoned for life."

"Yes." Eunuch Lai immediately knelt down on the ground, regardless of Concubine Xian or Zuo Meiren, in short, there will be no more empresses in Lizheng Palace from now on.

The queen mother called out, "The emperor..."

After Xia Jingdi finished speaking, he seemed to have exhausted his heart, and just waved his hands, "Mother, this is for the sake of the fifth child, otherwise a white silk will be enough."

"Just as long as you don't regret it." A soft voice made Emperor Xia Jing almost burst into tears. Eight years ago, he was blindfolded by anger and fear, and he was in the same situation, and he refused to listen to advice and insisted on going his own way.

In the end, I found that the most stupid person was myself.

"Minmin..."

Emperor Xia Jing was so angry that he vomited blood and fell into a coma, which really shocked everyone. Fortunately, the Empress Dowager was in charge of the harem and guarded by the imperial guards, so there were no major disturbances.

As for the capital, Zhao Jingyi was sitting in Prince Rui's mansion and did not see anyone, although he did not move at all, but his sharp eyes were fixed on people, naturally no one dared to move.

Finally, two days later, the emperor woke up, but what was surprising was that the first thing he did was to dispose of the highest-ranking concubine in the harem. Even the status of the two princes has obviously changed.

The King of Liang hardly moved, and the King of Shu never even saw his mother and concubine for the last time.He knelt outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation and begged for two days. Lie Lie lost water in the summer and passed out. He passed out and did not see his father. Instead, he was sent back to the Shu Palace, and then he was banned for three months. all possible.

When he woke up, the Anpinghou Mansion had collapsed and was sent to prison. By the time he was able to get out of the palace, a new floor had been repainted at Caishikou, and everything had changed overnight.

Concubine Shu's poison was not serious at all, and she gradually recovered after being treated by Lin Xi and the Ninth Prince.

It was also a blessing in disguise, a serious illness just happened to give the power of the harem to the hand, and in the blink of an eye, this woman who was not born high because of the emperor's whim, gradually became the most noble woman in the harem besides the queen mother.

Yijing Palace immediately raised their eyebrows and became the target of fawning, even the palace servants who were sweeping Sasa seemed to be superior to others.

And Lin Xi's task is also completed, it's time to leave the palace.

Zhao Jingyu sent him back, but stopped ten steps away from the palace gate.

"Uncle Lin."

Zhao Jingyu stopped Lin Xi, and suddenly said: "My concubine mother was wronged."

Many people knew about the unjust case eight years ago, and the harem was a place where people could hear it from all over the world. The next day, it would spread to every corner, until it was rumored that the palace became a topic of conversation in teahouses in the capital.

Although Zhao Jingyu is no longer the subject of controversy, it is inevitable that he will be affected.

Since he was a child, he has struggled in the harem bearing the name of Concubine Concubine Sin, and has become accustomed to all kinds of overt contempt and sarcasm, insults and beatings in secret, and silently endures who calls him the son of Concubine Sin!However, someone suddenly told him that his mother was wronged and innocent, so what is the humiliation he has suffered in the past eight years?

Emperor Xia Jing was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted, and called him to come to him within a few days, euphemistically calling him a sick man, but in fact it was to show the emperor's deep fatherly love.

The suddenly much older face, looking at the medicine bowl that Zhao Jingyu sent lovingly made him terrified.The cold gaze that had always ignored him was now warm, and he told him all kinds of kindness, beauty, tenderness and consideration of Concubine Min like memories, all of which made Zhao Jingyu embarrassed and uneasy, and couldn't help feeling resentful.

Zhao Jingyu was six years old when Concubine Min feared crimes and restrained herself. If she really thought his concubine mother was gentle and kind, why didn't she believe her and gave her the death penalty?Who is this affectionate gesture shown to after death?He ignored him for eight years, let him struggle to survive, what is this fatherly love now?

Zhao Jingyu wanted to ask, wanted to shout, but he couldn't say anything after all. He just listened silently to the emperor's rambling memories, quietly accepted any rewards, and obediently acted as a dutiful son in front of the hospital bed.

It's just that no one can tell about this grievance. Today when Lin Xi left the palace, he finally asked Emperor Xia Jing, "Uncle Lin leaves the palace today, and my son wants to send him off."

"Lin Xi?" Emperor Xia Jing thought for a while, as if recalling this person, and then he smiled, "That's okay, this kid can become an official, and he can go to the court to seek medical treatment. He is a rare talent. Bad things, especially his teacher, Master Bai Rusong, I will visit him more often when I have time, if I can learn from him, it would be great."

"Yes, my son knows." Zhao Jingyu bowed his eyebrows and stepped back respectfully.

"Wait." Emperor Xia Jing suddenly called him, Zhao Jingyu raised his head puzzled, and saw Emperor Xia Jing called his father-in-law to come in, and ordered: "You go to the House of Internal Affairs to find some good things for Xiaojiu, and I will give you a golden hundred Two, ten bolts of silk and a set of the four treasures of the study will be given to Lin Xi together."

Zhao Jingyu left the Hall of Mental Cultivation with the reward, picked up Lin Xi, and sent him to the palace gate. Before parting, he couldn't help telling Lin Xi anymore.

"Then do you hate it?"

Lin Xi turned around and looked at Zhao Jingyu quietly, with pity in his eyes that even he didn't know.

Who do you hate?Concubine Xian?

But now she has been imprisoned in the cold palace, and she will never get out. He knows that when others don't know about the cold palace.He couldn't forget that when he was a child, he slipped into the cold palace to escape the bullying of the servants, and he saw the hopeless eyes of the women imprisoned inside, as silent as a walking corpse.There is no day in the sky, there is no end in sight, lonely and lonely, and slowly dying, it is simply torture.

Life is worse than death, what else can he hate?The relevant palace servants and maidservants had already killed batch after batch, people died like lights went out, he didn't know which one to hate.

Perhaps as long as the emperor who insists on ruling the imperial decree...

Zhao Jingyu's pupils shrank.

Seeming to see through his thoughts, Lin Xi stepped forward, facing the young man who was already like him, showing a youthful silhouette, and said lightly: "If you really feel guilty, will the emperor give Concubine Min a vengeance?"

Gently, within a few steps, Zhao Jingyu shook his head.

The most ruthless is the emperor.

Lin Xi looked back at the most majestic palace in the palace, and asked again: "What is the crime of the Lizheng Palace?"

Interfering with the government and assassinating the concubine.

This concubine is not the two pregnant concubines who suffered disaster eight years ago, nor is it Concubine Min who has become a scapegoat, but Concubine Shu who has a cold plum in her body.

Obviously, Emperor Xia Jing did what the emperors of all dynasties would do, making amends but not overturning the case.

Even though everyone knew that Concubine Min was wronged, the emperor would never be wrong.

Zhao Jingyu smiled, but it was uglier than crying, "Mother concubine hanged herself not because of fear of crime, but because she died to show her will."

Lin Xi suddenly felt a twinge in her heart, and blurted out, "Do you want to avenge her wrongdoing?"

"Think!" Zhao Jingyu said firmly.

Lin Xi looked at this young man who believed in him, concealed the sadness in his heart, suppressed the guilt in his heart, and said calmly and solemnly: "Then be a filial son first, and with the grace of Concubine Min, let the emperor's guilt and love be forgiven." The love is infinitely magnified, absorb power and status as much as possible, and plump your own wings, just remember not to touch the bottom line of his supreme imperial power, the rest is irrelevant, now you can easily get his favor and tolerance. King of Shu Now, the king of Liang cannot dominate, the emperor will entrust you to stand up and balance with the king of Liang. Only in this way, you will have endless possibilities."

Zhao Jingyu stared blankly at Lin Xi's handsome face, his dark eyes were like the light of dark stars, he just stood there with his arms folded, his tone was cold, but it was like the sound of thunder blasting in Zhao Jingyu's head.

"Uncle Lin, do you think I can..." Zhao Jingyu also forgot the highest hall in his eyes, and the restlessness under the pressure, the calm expression he tried to maintain appeared a little distorted.

Lin Xi looked down at Zhao Jingyu's secretly clenched fists, and still said coldly: "Although I have offended you, I still want to say that now is indeed the best time. I will give you the cards one by one, and you will be able to grasp it." Owning everything. Concubine Min is the eternal pain in the emperor's heart. With a casual stab, he can give you things you dare not think about, and with the wind blowing by Concubine Shu's pillow, you can firmly hold those things you dare not think about. hold."

"But apart from the harem, I don't know any of the officials above the court, unlike the two princes who have their mother's family and wife's family outside to help, my eyes are darkened as soon as I leave the palace."

Hearing this, Lin Xi suddenly smiled softly, "There is nothing to worry about. When you are able to leave the palace and open the palace, His Majesty the Emperor will always prepare for you. Isn't it justifiable to develop on this basis?" ? Now all you lack is time."

Zhao Jingyu's eyes lit up, and he suddenly looked at Lin Xi and asked happily, "Uncle Lin, are you willing to help me?"
