Sheng Shi Merciful Light

Although Wei Shi and Emperor Tianshou had a grudge against killing his brother and forcing his mother, and Emperor Tianshou also forced to death the people Wei Shi valued, all of these are not humane, so on the surface, it seems that Emperor Tianshou will do daily tasks every day—— Going back to visit Mrs. Wei, and pretending to be filial, it would be better to be mad at Mrs. Wei to death.

On this day, Emperor Tianshou went to see her, and found that Wei Shi was in surprisingly good spirits. He was wearing a formal gown and a tiara, sitting on a chair in the main courtyard of the Ciming Hall, as if he was waiting for Emperor Tianshou on a special trip.

As expected of a man of a lifetime, Wei Shi's face is already wrinkled, because of the recent physical and mental suffering, his face is yellow and covered with dark spots, but his expression is still cold and serious, his eyes are sharp, and he seems to be able to see through everything.She just sat so quietly, and the whole body was automatically surrounded by the aura of "nobility and reverence".

Tianshoudi watched his father being suppressed by Wei Shi since he was a child, and he felt somewhat psychologically shadowed. He felt a "thump" in his heart, and felt that something was wrong today.

It was rare for Wei Shi to speak clearly, and ordered Cui Zhongnian: "Director, you can go down."

In the past two years, Cui Zhongnian has been guarding the Wei family every step of the way, but he just shook his head when he heard this.

"Go, God has the virtue of good life." Wei Shi wanted to save Cui Zhongnian's life, so it's better not to know too much.

Cui Zhongnian still shook his head, showing a broad-minded smile of "finally freed": "I'm all alone, I have nothing to worry about."

Emperor Tianshou knew that Cui Zhongnian, even if he used threats from his whole family, he could not make him use the medical skills that were supposed to save people to harm others.When Emperor Tianshou came to the throne, even after the downfall of the Wei family, he refused to "vote for another enlightened master" as a "stained witness" and "report" Wei's poisoning of the prince.

Catastrophe is the easiest way to test a person's character. This person admits to death and is loyal enough. Although the object is not the emperor, he is still admirable.

Emperor Tianshou said: "If he can keep his mouth shut, I will let him die in peace."

Wei Shi didn't trust Mu Yu very much, but there was nothing she could do, and she knew that her time was running out.She sighed in her heart, insisted on Zhuang Su, and said: "You pursue the imperial edict to confer Luo Shi as empress dowager, you can do it alone, and order Da Zongzheng to agree, but the title cannot exceed the previous three empresses."

"Yes." Emperor Tianshou was sullen, but he was a little excited. Although he became the emperor, his will to make his mother Luo Shi the empress dowager was frequently rejected, and even some civil servants gave him deadly remonstrance. He wanted to kill someone.But I'm afraid that he will kill and kill, but he will not be able to subdue the stubbornness of his subjects, but will make his reputation.

Now that such a result can be obtained, Mu Yu is very happy and immediately agrees.

Wei Shi tried to be emotional: "Wu Lang, don't implicate the innocent anymore. Back then when your mother couldn't be crowned empress, your elder brother... died, you have to blame... only Gu, I don't want others to suffer for it."

"You finally admitted it!" Although the Emperor Tianshou knew that Mu Chun was poisoned, today was the first time he heard Wei admit it with his own ears, and the overwhelming hatred could not be concealed.

Back then, his elder brother was so amazingly talented and brilliant, but he was shamefully poisoned and died a miserable and worthless death, which is really sad and regrettable.

Even more wronged!

He is the younger brother who has been taken care of and guided by Mu Chun, and Mu Chun never hides from him what he thinks about things. The elder brother really has no intention of being on the throne, loves freedom, and intends to be a king of idleness to travel around and enjoy his life.If there is a brother with a generous heart who succeeds to the throne, he is also willing to contribute his strength to assist him wholeheartedly.

However, some people can't tolerate him!

Wei sighed: "Believe it or not, I really didn't intend to kill Dalang back then."

"People are already dead, so what's the point of saying this?" Emperor Tianshou asked coldly.

"Your elder brother is too good, I'm afraid that he...causing turmoil in the country...I just want Dalang to have acne and scars on his face, and I also want to protect all the children. I can't think of Dalang...Why is he so physically fit? Sensitive, just... gone?" Wei Shi was also unbelievable when he heard the news of Mu Chun's death.

"So, it's still my elder brother's fault? Is he too unlucky, or is he too weak?" After many years, Emperor Tianshou still couldn't help but choke up, "Can you stop putting the blame on the dead? Brother, do you want to die yourself?"

Wei Shi was speechless.

Emperor Tianshou shed tears: "It's too good, is it also a sin?"

Emperor Tianshou couldn't accept that Mu Chun was killed, the biggest and most absurd charge - because he was too good!

Speaking of this, Wei Shi didn't have the face to continue talking.

Mu Chun's death was indeed because he was too good.

Although Emperor Yonghe had six legitimate sons back then, as the eldest son of a concubine, Mu Chun wanted to be the crown prince, and his name was unfair, but he couldn't help that the child was really intelligent, handsome in appearance, versatile in both civil and military affairs, open-minded, benevolent and selfless, and quite eloquent .He is comprehensive in government affairs, and is very popular with veteran officials; even in military affairs, he has shown his talent, and he is more tolerant.

No one who got along with him said anything bad about him.

Even with the harshest eyes of the heir to the throne, Mu Chun has almost no shortcomings.Soon someone said that Mu Chunsheng had a vision, that it was Concubine Luo dreaming of a dragon in her arms, that day the sun was shining brightly, the aura was full of auspiciousness, and she looked like an emperor.The ancients were superstitious, and many courtiers were inclined to Mu Chun in their hearts, rather than honest and honest, and their qualifications were relatively inferior to Mu Chun's Mu Jing.

In the end, the tragedy happened because of Wei's own selfishness.

Although they are both her own grandsons, even though she admits that Mu Chun is better than Mu Jing, but Erlang Mu Jing was brought up by her alone, so there is naturally a bias.She has controlled this country for decades, and she is too used to holding everything in her own hands and letting everyone listen to her.

The older she gets, the more paranoid she becomes, and because of old age, she becomes a little suspicious. She is always afraid that the concubine will succeed to the throne. She brought up the second prince, Mu Jing, and the other princes. There is only one emperor, and there is no place for anyone Those who are a threat to the throne.

Although Mu Chun has always expressed her ambition to put her love on the mountains and rivers, she is afraid that Mu Chun will hide traitors.If you don't hide adultery, how can you be so kind and considerate to everyone and never blush?Why do you make friends with so many people?And why, let everyone say hello?Don't you know how to avoid suspicion?

Wei Shi was a little worried. The better Mu Chun behaved, the more she felt that Mu Chun had great plans in his heart. Now that she was still alive, she could suppress her, so she didn't dare to show her true nature.

But she is already old, and Mu Chun is too young, and none of his younger brothers are wary of him, if one day Mu Chun tears off the gentle mask...

So Wei Shi is different...

But Wei knows that this is not a reason to shirk, people always have too many "involuntary" and "last resort".But when pushed to a desperate situation, there are some things that cannot be done or cannot be done, for example-seeking profit by shady means.

She should never, never should have used a conspiracy to hurt an innocent child, to gain benefits through a conspiracy, and to start this evil, which is why today's disaster happened.

Emperor Tianshou's face was frosty, and his voice was as cold as ice: "Wei Shi, others are deceived by you, but I know that you are just greedy for power, and you just want to control everyone and act according to your ideas. Brother and other brothers, which one is not a chess piece in your hands? Even the father, the emperor, has been held in the palm of your hand for the rest of his life, and he can play around in circles."

Wei Shi looked at Emperor Tianshou and tried to defend himself: "Gu didn't..."

Emperor Tianshou sneered: "Unfortunately, Empress Fengtian is not what everyone deserves."

"I do not……"

"You swear you haven't thought about it? Hmph, you're just not as cruel as Empress Fengtian."

"I……"

"Well, just pretend that you haven't thought about it, but who will believe you?"

Wei Shi: "..." She was short of breath, wanted to vomit a mouthful of blood but couldn't vomit, her chest heaved, and she let out "hoho".

Emperor Tianshou sneered: "How does it feel to be wronged? Besides, I may not have wronged you. Who of you believed what my elder brother said? In the face of power, who can guarantee that he will never be tempted?"

Wei Shi had nothing to say.

However, Emperor Tianshou tremblingly said with a crying sound: "I believe, I believe elder brother... Although he was afraid of being quiet and being discovered back then, he took the medicine without hesitation. Did that bowl of medicine seal the throat with blood?"

Wei Shi also had a weeping face, she also knew and believed Mu Chun when Mu Chun drank the poison without hesitation.

But...it's too late to say anything now.

"I can't figure it out, what is the purpose of my brother's death? Is it for the stability of Daxing? He is willing, but I am not willing, I am not willing...I want everyone who has hurt my brother to die!" At this moment, Mu Wu's face was distorted like a ghost, and dark sparks flickered in his eyes.

Wei Shi was silent, and waited for the emperor to calm himself down, and then said: "There is a hidden compartment on the third row of bookshelves in Gu's study, and you can fetch something from it."

Emperor Tianshou didn't take it by himself, he was afraid of traps, and those who played tricks looked at others, and everything was full of tricks.Wei Shi signaled to Cui Zhongnian, and Cui Zhongnian went to get the hidden things.

Emperor Tianshou asked Cui Zhongnian to open it, and showed it to him... The more he looked at it, the more frightened he became. This is an investigation document, which describes how he and Ding Wang Mu Feiming arranged their arrangements, and how they bribed the horsemen so that Yuan Zong fell without a trace. Horse, to instigate the method of the prince to kill each other.

Although not complete, it scored seven or eight points.

Mu Yu broke out in a cold sweat. Even if there is no physical evidence, his accession to the throne is enough to attract suspicion. As long as this thing leaks out, it will definitely have a very bad influence.If it is suppressed, I don't know how much more blood will be shed... The "Five Kings Rebellion" has already hurt the vitality of this country, and it has reached its limit.

Although Mu Yu wanted to take revenge, he didn't want the country to be defeated by him.

Wei Shi saw Mu Yu's face was full of anger but his brows were slightly frowned, he looked very worried, obviously he was still worried about Wanli rivers and mountains and the people, and he also felt a little relieved.This young man reminded her of Mu Chun, a world-shattering genius. If this country is in Mu Chun's hands, she doesn't know what kind of good it will be.

Perhaps, Jing'er, who was raised by her alone, doesn't have to die with so many children.

Mu Yu, this younger brother who has been with Mu Chun since he was a child, is really either mediocre, or he has gone on a crooked path.She was the one who led this crooked path.

Except for Mu Chun, Wei's whole life, it can be said that he has no regrets for the Mu family and the whole family.It is really meaningless to say these things now, Jiangshan fell into the hands of Mu Yu, she wanted to make amends, resolve Mu Yu's hostility, it is good for the country and the people - it is the only place where she can make amends for her mistakes .

Wei's tone softened: "I've thought a lot these days, and I've been silently observing your actions. Although you're a bit more ruthless, you still have people in your heart. It's not like you've entrusted the country to you."

Emperor Tianshou calmed down, and Wei Shi asked him to read the investigations instead of finding ways to spread them, which meant that there was still room for negotiation.He asked: "Speaking bluntly, what conditions do you have? Do you want to pardon the members of the Wei family?"

Wei Shi's turbid eyes suddenly lit up, looking at Emperor Tianshou.

Emperor Tianshou sneered, extinguishing the faintest hope in the other party's eyes: "Impossible, don't force me to cut grass and roots, maybe Duke Wei changed the medicine back then."

Wei Shi had expected this answer a long time ago, she sighed in her heart again, lowered her eyes again, and the killing momentum around her weakened.For the Wei family, she is also ashamed. She clearly knows that her mother's family stands too high and will fall harder sooner or later, but she still has selfish intentions and does not want to weaken the family's authority.

The Wei family was praised too much by her, and finally paid the price.

What's more, the adults of the Wei family are already dead, and the underage children who were sold have already suffered the most tragic thing. Even if they are pardoned, those children will have no land, no land, and no one to protect them. Maybe there will be even worse things happen.

Emperor Tianshou is not a good talker, and he doesn't even need to do it himself, just a tendency, and someone will help him kill those children with the most cruel methods.

Wei could only beg with a hint of pleading: "I implore you, don't torture them any more, just save your life."

"Hmph, I'm not interested in a few little dolls."

Seeing that Emperor Tianshou's eyes were full of hostility, Wei Shi could not give in at all, so she murmured: "I have been lying in bed for a while, and I have been reviewing my life. I am old, and I can't remember the recent events clearly. , but I can remember the past more clearly. I... did something wrong."

The Emperor Tianshou waited for many years, and finally waited for this "acknowledgement", but he was unmoved, what's the use if a person is already dead?He stood quietly without asking questions.The old woman in front of her didn't need his response either.

She was magnificent all her life, and she used to be like a mountain on the heads of his father, Emperor Yonghe, and his biological mother, and now...he finally defeated her.

The mountain collapsed in front of her—she was dying.

Wei's eyes were cloudy and lifeless, but his utterance was exceptionally clear, and he said, "What's the opinion of the family, who is born high or low? Count up, your ancestors were carpenters, and the ancestors of the Wei family were just peddlers. They are all low-class...your mother's The thing is that I am too persistent.”

Wei often thinks: If he raised his hand back then, even if Luo Shi was not allowed to be the queen, and he didn't manipulate Emperor Yonghe to tell him to marry three queens, would everything be different?Dalang's beautiful child, as well as the few children born on the same day, don't they need to die?

Unfortunately, there is no turning back.

She planted the cause, and she was about to swallow the poisonous fruit after her hands were stained black.

Emperor Tianshou just watched indifferently, showing no mercy to the woman who had controlled the country for more than 60 years.She has indeed contributed a lot to the fortune, but she is old and faint, greedy for power, arrogant and conceited, and plays with the Mu royal family between applause-when she uses methods to control the emotional marriage of Emperor Yonghe, when she uses conspiracy to poison By the time her obstacles were cleared, she had already become the enemy of the Mu royal family.

Compared with Empress Fengtian, she only has one less enthronement ceremony.

There was a flash of sternness in Wei's eyes, and he said: "Twelve Lang has been raised by my side, no different from my own grandson..."

"Shut up!" Mu Yu interrupted Wei Shi, and said coldly, "I will not separate myself from my own brother just because of your few words, put away your useless provocative tricks, you are really old."

Wei Shi suddenly laughed...

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha..."Wei Shi suddenly felt that this was not funny, so he stopped laughing and took a breath before continuing, "I didn't hurt you later, I couldn't cut the weeds, Even with today’s disaster, since it’s all done now, then… simply… keep you to the end.”

Suddenly Wei looked at Cui Zhongnian and said, "Director, please bring a brazier and burn all these waste papers."

Cui Zhongnian didn't dare to hesitate, so he did.

Emperor Tianshou didn't know which act Wei Shi was going to play, so he had no choice but to keep silent, with a cold face so that no one could see his thoughts, and stared at the dancing fire that engulfed the thick stack of investigation files.

Maybe the old woman has something behind her and is paralyzing him now?

A sarcastic sneer floated on the corner of Wei's mouth: "Wu Lang, Gu has no backup. This tragedy should end here, and this country can no longer stand the wind and rain. Every word, deed, and action of the royal family should become the protection of all people." Set an example. So I don’t want your virtue to suffer.”

The Wei family is also helpless, Mu Yu has already become the heaven-sent emperor, and there are only two young princes left under him, one is Mu Qing, a younger brother who is a compatriot with Mu Yu, and is named the King of Shou; the other is Emperor Yonghe who died in Luoshi Later, Da Da came to the harem, and the posthumous child left by the maidservant of the first palace is currently less than six years old.

She no longer has any choice.

If there is a problem with the emperor's virtue on the throne...if the officials don't agree, Mu Yu will not back down. In the end...the country she has worked hard for all her life, dedicated her youth and all her enthusiasm, will fall into civil war, blood will flow like a river, and become a hell on earth .

"So, everything was Dongxing Wei's conspiracy, and Gu also got the punishment he deserved." Wei endured the pain in his heart, and put the blame on himself and his family, and told Mu Yu, "Never tell the truth to others again. .Do not let the world think that success can be achieved by intrigue and cruelty, by trickery and poison."

Emperor Tianshou sneered, is this pointing at Sang and scolding Huai?But he has done it, there is nothing he dare not admit, he only sneered: "Fifty steps laugh at a hundred steps."

"Goro, I'm not blaming you. I don't have this position. I started it first, so I'll end it, okay?" She hoped to untie the knot in Mu Yu's chest and reduce his cruelty.

Mu Yu thought about it for a while, then nodded: "I will not kill the descendants of the imperial brothers... If they are still peaceful, I will treat them kindly."

On Wei Shi's usually solemn and cold face, there was a kind smile.

The last file was engulfed by flames, Cui Zhongnian stood up, walked to Wei Shi, and respectfully said: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to rest."

Wei Shi was startled.

"Are you tired after talking so much? Take a rest." Cui Zhongnian said.

Tired, yes, not only tired of talking now, but in her life, she has never been tired.

Wei Shi closed his eyes and relaxed his body.

She wants to rest.

Everything is irreparable, but the dust has settled, and I can finally have a good rest.In an instant, like a mountain collapsing, she quickly decayed...

Wei Shi let out a "He Chi He Chi" breathing sound, and tried to utter the last sentence: "Wu Lang... find a way... solve... King Ding..."

When a person is about to die, his words are also good.

Wei closed her eyes, she didn't know how much hatred she could get rid of by bowing her head, and hoped that he could let go of his obsession and be a good emperor.This is also the best way to save as many people as possible and the country.

Hope, everything ends here.

In the end, Wei Shi had lost his mind, and in a daze, he could only murmur, "Jun's...Jun's...Lin'an...Lin'an..."

At the last moment of this all-powerful woman's life, what she missed most was her husband who had passed away for many years, and her daughter who broke with her because she learned that she poisoned Mu Chun and never wanted to see her again.

Emperor Tianshou looked at it coldly, expressionless, and did not intend to let someone inform Princess Lin'an.

Cui Zhongnian thought for a while, but in the end he didn't plead, but calmly said to Mu Yun, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is going to rest."

With a sneer on the corner of Tianshoudi's mouth, he turned and left without hesitation in the attitude of a winner.

That night, he reminded Zhongnian to report: Mrs. Wei passed away.

Emperor Tianshou didn't feel the pleasure of revenge in his heart, but was a little dazed that he had lost his goal.He thought of the pile of investigations that had been engulfed in flames. If Wei Shi was still young and not paralyzed by a stroke, would he have won?

he does not know.

——Maybe I didn't defeat her after all, but time has not spared anyone.

But soon Mu Yu calmed down, opened the memorial in his hand, and calmly ordered: "The death knells are ringing, and the whole country mourns."

Cui Zhongnian made a salute to the emperor, knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times, expressing his very, very respect and his very, very sincere request.

"Your Majesty, please give me the burial."

Emperor Tianshou: "..." This is the first time he has heard of such a bizarre request.

"Since I promised to save your life, don't even think about committing suicide. Keep your mouth shut and go to the imperial hospital to take care of you until you grow old."

Emperor Tianshou didn't intend to save Cui Zhongnian's life, but after thinking about it for a long time, he felt that after all, the Wei family had controlled the country for decades, and some words still made sense.A stable country is also conducive to his rule, so he decided to be a generous and good emperor.Cui Zhongnian was indeed worthy of the word "loyalty", so he escaped.

But it's like a murderer who wants to pick up an embroidery needle... Emperor Tianshou is much tougher than the previous emperors, and he is very good at playing tricks, and there is basically no limit to his innocence, and the opposition is always unknowingly defeated. He played to death, and he was so aggrieved that he couldn't defend himself.

Emperor Tianshou is very clever at playing tricks, he is very good at letting the truth stand on his side, and it will always be others who have no reason.

……

History is written by the victors. After Wei's death, all the insiders died and scattered. Wei burned the file, Cui Zhongnian shut up, and all the truth was buried in the dust and will not be mentioned again. .

Cui Zhongnian was saved from death, he was very knowledgeable about current affairs, and he would never go out of the imperial hospital again to poke the emperor's eyes.He never married a wife or had children in his whole life, and was alone. He had been drying medicinal materials in the backyard of the Imperial Medicine Department, never stepped out of the gate of the Tai Hospital, and rarely spoke, which was equivalent to life imprisonment.When he was old, he would be registered in the Tai Hospital, dozing off full-time, and waiting for his old age to die.

Unfortunately, in the case of the Ninth Princes, the emperor showed his long-hidden but still sharp claws, and Yuan Zhan was unlucky.Everyone in the Tai Hospital was frightened. It was the first time they saw the emperor show his power. For the safety of his life, and he didn't know the past, they pushed him, an old guy, to top the tank. Anyway, he used to be an envoy of the hospital. Qualifications are enough.

Cui Zhongnian: "..."

He has been self-imprisoned for so many years, so the emperor can rest assured and forget about him, is it easy?

This rough life of lasagna and tears will not make people feel safe when they get old.
