There is a long way to go before returning the pearl

"Haha... Your Majesty... you are so ruthless."

The concubine was lying on the ground, crying bitterly, yelling and cursing loudly, listening to her too much, dissatisfied, several people looked at each other, fortunately the emperor had already left, and did not hear, otherwise, it would have been fine.

Several people surrounded the concubine Ling, and one of them held up the poisoned wine, "Come on, the emperor's order, the empress should stop doing unnecessary struggles."

The concubine Ling raised her head, glared at them, and looked at them bitterly, "Bah, what is the emperor, he wants to kill me, why can't I scold him to relieve my hatred?"

Lamei has been hiding aside since Qianlong arrived, not daring to show up, now seeing her concubine being forced to drink poisonous wine by the eunuch, she was even more frightened, turned around, ran back to the room, sat on the bed trembling helplessly, the next one would die Could it be her.

The concubine Ling didn't take the cup, the eunuch looked at each other, and several people stepped forward to hold her down, "Then don't blame us."

"You let me go, I am the mother of the fifteenth elder brother, you let go." Ling concubine struggled to break free from their control.

The eunuch clasped her chin with one hand, "Your Majesty, let's go, the servants can go back and report to Manager Wu." As he spoke, he unceremoniously poured the poisoned wine into the concubine's mouth, raised her head, and poured the poisoned wine into her mouth. Down the throat, into the stomach.

The concubine fell to the ground, slapped her chest with her hands, "cough..." she wanted to cough up the poisoned wine.

The eunuch gave her a last look, but didn't say anything. They knew about the toxicity of Hedinghong, so they didn't stay here and went back.

When the concubine looked at the huge palace, she was the only one lying on the ground alone, and she didn't know who to send her hatred to, "Your Majesty, I curse you for not getting true love for the rest of your life, because you are not worthy of love."

The sound of tearing lingered above the hall for a long time, carrying resentment, always trying to drown people out.

Qianlong on the other side didn't care about her life or death at all, so Wu Shu came to support her and went to Jingyang Palace.

At the entrance of the sleeping hall, Qianlong let go of Wu Shulai's hand, "Wait, I will go in alone." After that, Qianlong pretended to be struggling and walked in.

In the sleeping hall, the queen was lying on the bed, and Nanny Rong was waiting in front of her. Seeing Qianlong coming in alone, she quickly knelt down. The queen remembered what he had said in the Palace of Compassion, and became even more angry, "I am not feeling well, I can't Salute to the emperor, please forgive me."

If he was angry, Qianlong might be angry if he left it in the past, but today is different, Qianlong didn't seem to hear the anger in his words, he sat down beside the queen's bed calmly, and waved to Madam Rong, "Go down!" , I want to say a few personal words to the queen."

"Yes." Rong Momo glanced at the queen, and retreated with a group of court ladies.

The queen moved a little bit, half lying on the bed, "What does the emperor want to say to the concubine, if the concubine remembers correctly, the emperor Xie Yuhua should be the concubine Ling."

"There is no concubine in the palace, and the queen should not make mistakes in the future." Qianlong told the queen calmly.

The queen's eyes widened in surprise, "What, Your Majesty... this..."

"I have already given her a glass of poisoned wine, so she must not be in the palace now." Qianlong said it was very indifferent, he didn't care that it was a human life, and it was someone he had loved before.

The queen's nature is pure and kind, and she couldn't digest the news at all, "Your majesty, she is a concubine after all, it's not good if you don't tell the queen mother about this."

"I am the master of the palace, the queen mother is not in good health, you should worry about the affairs of the palace in the future." In a word, Qianlong told the queen very clearly that the queen mother has no real power in the palace. "In addition, you don't have to feel sorry, she deserves it. Do you still remember that Yongzheng fainted a few years ago, and it was found that he was poisoned?"

The empress gritted her teeth and nodded, how could she not remember, because of this incident, the emperor took Yongzheng to live in Qianqing Palace, so that she could not see Yongzheng for several days.

"She was the one who poisoned. I just gave her a glass of poisoned wine, which is already taking advantage of her."

"What, Concubine Ling is the one who poisoned Yongzheng. I never thought it was her." The queen was shocked. She thought about all the concubines in the harem, but she didn't think of Concubine Ling. Isn't there no prince, why do you want to kill Yongzheng?"

Qianlong sneered, "It's still Yong Qi who is useless and always follows her. If Yong Qi has no chance, Yong Qi's chances will increase. At that time, Yong Qi will not listen to what she says. This is a wishful thinking." There was a jingle, and I underestimated her."

The queen sighed, "The emperor came here not only to tell his concubine about this matter, right?" She still knew Qianlong well, and he would not come to him in person if there was no major matter.

Qianlong glanced at her, "I heard from the imperial physician that your health is not good, and you need to be treated with heart medicine for your heart disease. I am worried, so I have to come here in person." Qianlong said endlessly, and the queen was confused, "Yongxi is worried about you. He can't come to see you now, so I have no choice but to come here on his behalf."

The queen sat up straight in surprise. Does the emperor mean that Yongzhen is in the palace?

Facing the empress' expectant eyes, Qianlong nodded stiffly.

"Really, that's great, the concubine is going to see him." Saying that, the queen lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed.

Qianlong hurriedly stopped her, "Although the queen mother ordered Yongzheng to be released, he was not allowed to stay in the capital. I took him over secretly, and now everyone doesn't know. Yongzhen doesn't want you to stay in such a bad state. Thinking about it, it’s okay to tell you, and you won’t harm him.”

"What are you talking about? Yongzheng is the son of the concubine, how could the concubine harm him."

"Then take good care of your body. When you recover, it won't be too late to see Yongzheng. Now that I am recuperating, you are also sick. How could you go to my place?" What will the world say about the Queen.

The queen also calmed down, and anxiously asked Qianlong, "Is Yongzhen okay? The concubine is watching at the queen mother's place, and Yongzhen is haggard again. She is always injured and has not been properly raised. What should I do?"

Qianlong was a little embarrassed now. He didn't know how to face the queen. He turned sideways and coughed twice, "Don't worry, no one disturbs me. I have seen a lot of rosiness in the past two days. I think about it in two days." It would be safer to send him out of the capital, although it is safe there, but I am afraid that there will be some accidents, and it will be difficult to handle at that time."

"Well, yes, as long as Yongzheng can do well, everything will be easy." The queen has no objection.

"Also, if there is a chance in the future, I will let him come back to see you. Don't worry, the jade butterfly of fifteen is also here with you. Take good care of him." Qianlong finally ordered a few words, stood up and wanted to leave.

The queen became quiet and did not reply, but when Qianlong walked a few steps, she suddenly asked, "Why is the emperor treating Yongzhen so differently?"

Qianlong stopped, did not turn around, and was silent for a while, "He is my child."

The queen shook her head, apparently dissatisfied with the answer, "He is not, why?" The queen somehow wanted to know.

Qianlong stood there, stroking the wrench on his thumb, and raised his head, "I remember, he let you eat longevity noodles on your birthday, and I was just thinking, whether the relationship between me and Huang'enniang is deep or shallow." Qian, at this age, I never thought that my son's birthday would be a difficult day for the Queen's mother, let alone spend this day with the Queen's mother, but he did it; I know that he is naughty, playful, well-behaved, Taking care of Shisan, although I don't see him very often, I still know that every time I see Huang Erniang and Hong Zhou, they will always talk about what Yongzheng did again; Care about him, let him live in Qianqing Palace, and let him enjoy different treatment. It was also at that time, when I got in touch with him, that I really began to understand him. He would visit the third child who no one cares about, and care about him He even took the initiative to find the imperial doctor because of his illness. This is something that no prince can do. Even Concubine Chun doesn’t care about the third child. What other princes don't have, the third, fourth, eighth, and Yong Xing are all willing to stand by his side. I once asked him if he wanted to be emperor, and he said no. He said that the emperor is the most tiring and the hardest. He just wants to be good, only thirteen is good. I have asked myself, I am afraid that he is the only one who can not be tempted by the throne. This child has the ability to make people feel pampered. Otherwise, how could Hong Zhou be so caring for him? .”

The queen was silent. Even if she killed her, she wouldn't believe it came from the emperor's mouth. She could only stare at Qianlong with her mouth wide open in shock.

"He is an elf in this world, I think, it must be God's preference, so that I can have him." The soft voice is the most terrifying curse in this world.

The queen closed her eyes, she couldn't believe it, and she also wanted to believe it. Is what the emperor said true? That was Yongzheng. He has just grown up, and he still doesn't understand anything. After so many years, she, the queen What did Er Niang miss, "Yong Xin is indeed a good boy, and I am proud of him."

Qianlong listened to her words, and his heart was very calm. This passage should have been said to Yongzheng, but when the queen asked, he also regarded the queen as his future "mother-in-law", so he said such a passage talk.

"Naturally." Two words, even more endless pride.

"The concubine is tired. The emperor should go back to rest earlier. When he is healthy, he will be able to watch Yongzheng get married. I don't know what kind of woman he will marry." The queen spoke very slowly, word by word. Passed to Qianlong's ears.

Qianlong left without saying anything.

The queen watched his figure disappear, and then she fell down on the bed exhaustedly. Nanny Rong walked in, looked at the pale face of the queen, and asked worriedly, "What's wrong, ma'am?"

The queen pulled back the quilt, covered herself tightly, and said weakly, "Go out, I will be alone in peace."

Nanny Rong walked out worriedly, and closed the door, the queen was the only one in the hall.

"How can the emperor...how can..." The queen's forced composure in front of Qianlong just disappeared without a trace, and she could only repeat it repeatedly in fear. She never dreamed that Yongzheng would cause even greater troubles with Qianlong , the queen was lying on the bed, not knowing what to do.
