Emperor of Hongshi

Chapter 74 Showdown

When Yongzheng heard Hongshi talking about Yongshen, his brows immediately frowned. How could he have forgotten that Yongshen was ill recently, and Hongshi's bad mood is understandable.

He must be very anxious about Yongshen's matter now, but it turned out that he was still so angry with him, picking on his thorns, it was really not good.

"Although Yongshen's illness is serious, don't worry too much. Auspicious people have their own nature. I think Yongshen will get better!"

Yongzheng comforted Hongshi a few words, but the comfort was so pale even to him.

"Thank you Huang Ama for your concern. If there is nothing else, I will go to pay my respects to Er Niang first."

Hongshi responded with a low eyebrow and pleasing to the eye, and then asked Yongzheng to resign. He was fine at first, so he would know that Hongshi was anxious about Yongshen, so of course he would not do more to stop him.

After saying a few words casually, Hiroshi was asked to leave.

Hong Shi first went to the queen to greet Ann, and then walked to Concubine Qi's bedroom.

After arriving at Concubine Qi and inviting Ann, Hongshi raised his eyes and looked at the surrounding court ladies and eunuchs, "Emiang, I have some things I want to talk to you alone, can I let them go down first?"

"What's wrong? Why are you so serious today?" Concubine Qi was very puzzled by Hongshi's sudden solemnity today, but she waved her hand and waved away everyone.

Seeing that everyone had left and closed the door behind him, Hong Shi looked at Concubine Qi only after making sure that there was no one around.

"What's the matter with you? Just tell me if you have anything to say." Concubine Qi looked at Hong Shi with a blank face, not understanding why he kept staring at her so hard that she almost got hairy.

"It's nothing, I just feel that Er Niang has suddenly become so strange that I don't even know her!"

Hong Shi said lightly, these words made Concubine Qi confused for a while, a little confused.

"You child, what are you doing to say these words in a good manner? It's good. Why am I unfamiliar with it?"

Concubine Qi looked at Hong Shi with some amusement, and her smile deepened following the words on her lips.

"The poison in Yongshen has something to do with you, right? Or it was actually you who did it."

Hearing this sentence, the smile on Concubine Qi's face had a crack, and she couldn't hang on anymore, she quickly pulled her face down, "Is there someone who is gossiping in front of you, I told you earlier, this kind of person You can't tolerate it, you are too soft-hearted, that's why you protect them, this kind of person should be pulled out and killed."

Concubine Qi said in a panic, but she still tried her best to maintain a calm face. Although her heart was already turbulent, she still smiled on the surface, but this smile was too fake, and it was uglier than crying.

"Do you still need others to gossip? Isn't Er Niang's performance just now the best proof? You are guilty of pretending to be calm, but why are you guilty?"

Hongshi had a feeling of powerlessness, which made him more uncomfortable than not being able to get Yongzheng's attention, or being ignored by Yongzheng.

"Hongshi!" Concubine Qi shouted sharply, "Emiang knows that you have been in a trance recently due to Yongshen's illness, but you can't go on like this forever, you should go back and have a good rest!"

Hongshi didn't take her words seriously, "Son's body, the son knows it himself, I came here today to want Yongshen's antidote, give me the antidote!"

"I don't know what you're talking about!" Concubine Qi turned her face away and stopped looking at Hongshi, feeling a little angry in her heart.

"Okay, since that's the case, then let's talk about what Er Niang knows, sister Huai Ke's death was your fault, right?" Hong Shi continued to look at Concubine Qi's back, and when he heard Hong Shi talk about Huai Ke Concubine Qi's back visibly stiffened when she was taking a bath, and Hong Shi didn't miss it.

"Are you crazy today? What nonsense are you talking about here?" Concubine Qi turned her head angrily, and looked at Hongshi with an angry look.

There was a mocking smile on the corner of Hongshi's mouth, "Is it crazy, doesn't Erniang know? Why did you kill Sister Huai Ke? Is it because she knew about your shady deeds?"

Concubine Qi is not only angry now, she is more shocked, how did Hongshi know these things.

"What do you know?" Concubine Qi finally looked squarely at it, staring at Hongshi nervously.

"It doesn't matter how much I know, what matters is how much you have done, I don't want to discuss anything else with you now, give me the antidote, I want to save Yongshen."

Concubine Qi's eyes dodged a little. After a long time, she seemed to be struggling in her heart, and then she said to Hongshi, "It's not that I don't want to save him, but that I really don't have an antidote."

"Impossible, you are the one who poisoned, why don't you have an antidote?" Hong Shi stared at Concubine Qi coldly, as if he wanted to see through her from the inside out.

"I said that if there is no antidote, there is no antidote. That medicine was saved by a wandering Taoist priest when I was still in the boudoir. He gave me this medicine for self-defense!"

"Self-defense?" Hongshi thought it was a little funny, "You defended yourself so much that you were going to kill your sister, but now you want to kill Yongshen?"

"I admit that I killed Huai Ke, but I didn't intend to kill Yongshen. What good would it do me if I killed a child like him?"

Concubine Qi saw that Hongshi could no longer hide this matter, so she simply admitted that there was no one around.

"You may not have done Yongshen's poison yourself, but you have nothing to do with it. To be precise, he suffered this catastrophe because of you."

Concubine Qi's face immediately turned pale, Hongshi was right, the reason why Yongshen behaved like this this time was indeed because of her.

It can be said that Yongshen was indeed implicated by her.

"Yongshen's poison this time was originally intended to be administered to Hongli, but unexpectedly, he and Concubine Xi counterattacked it, and instead got it on Yongshen."

For Yongshen to change like this, although Concubine Qi is unwilling, but it is already like this, and there is no other way.

"The matter that harmed Hongli this time was a conspiracy between you and the queen. You have a clue in her hands, so you were used as a spear by her." Although Hongshi had a questioning tone, he said it with absolute certainty, which is of course true. .

"She knew that I killed Huai Ke, so..."

"It's not just your sister who killed you, even brother Honghui. Otherwise, you wouldn't be so obedient to listen to the queen and let her dictate. On the contrary, she killed the two brothers Hongyi and Hongyun, right?"

"You...how did you know these things." Concubine Qi opened her eyes wide in shock, took a few steps on her hind legs, and sat down on the stool.

"These things you do are not clean. People with a little brain, even if there is no evidence, can come up with a reason if they think about it carefully. I just never thought about it, but I don't understand. What the hell are you doing all that for?

Does it really make sense to do so?You killed Brother Honghui, and you got involved with Brother Hongyi and Hongyun. My sister knew about it, and you killed her again. Now that I know, do you still want to kill me? "

Concubine Qi was sitting in front of the table, the teacups in her hands were clinking, she was frightened by what Hongshi said.

"Why did you two want to kill Hongli?" Hongshi asked with a sigh.

"If he doesn't die, the throne will never be your turn." When Concubine Qi said this, a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes.

"Me?" Hong Shi looked disapproving, "You are really good at wearing a high hat."

"You think the empress has known for so many years that I have harmed Honghui, why can she tolerate me? Because she has no son, but concubine Xi has one, and concubine Hua has occupied the emperor's favor for many years. He wants to keep the queen's position. , that's why she cooperated with me, otherwise, with her temperament, she would have wished to kill me a long time ago."

When Hongshi thought about it, he knew why the empress and the others wanted to target Hongli. Some time ago, the anniversary of Huang Mafa's death was held by Hongli. It is self-evident what this represents.

But when he didn't know, the Queen and Concubine Qi actually pressed the treasure on him, which made him a little unacceptable.

"When you tried to plot Hongli, did you ever think about what I think and what kind of life I want to live? What's more, are you really the opponent of the mother and son?

Let me tell you, I don't want that seat, all I want is that the people I care about can live safely and happily, but you killed two at once. "

Hongshi lowered his head, and said decadently: "You'd better hope that Yongshen is fine, otherwise I will never forgive you for the rest of my life. As for the dirty tricks of you and the queen, put them away, don't harm others when the time comes. Lost myself!"

After Hongshi finished speaking, he didn't care about the surprised Concubine Qi, turned around and walked out. When he reached the door, he stopped again, "If you do many unrighteous acts, there will be no good end. You can do it yourself."

Seeing the back of Hongshi leaving, Concubine Qi became even more angry. What does it mean not to want that seat? It is something that many people dream of, but they still don't like it.

What is unrighteousness? Who in this palace does not have blood on their hands, and that person does not have many lives in his hands. If there is retribution, the first one who should be retribution is the one sitting on the dragon chair today. It's ridiculous to have stained a lot of blood for the sake of being superior.

Hongshi didn't know what Concubine Qi was thinking, he was just walking numbly on the way to Yongshen's courtyard alone.

Yongshen's condition is getting worse and worse, but he has nothing to do. Concubine Qi's appearance just now is indeed not a lie, she really has no antidote.Perhaps a person can lie and deceive others, but some small details cannot deceive others.

It was because of this that Hongshi became even more irritable, which made him scold the Taoist wanderer who gave medicine to Concubine Qi several times. Why would a Taoist wanderer give such poison to a woman? Taoists themselves are not good things to be able to do such things.

When Hongshi passed by the rockery in the Imperial Garden in a trance, he suddenly heard the voices of a man and a woman, the man was low and the woman was excited.

Although Hongshi was not good at those things, he was married and had a child after all, so how could he not know what that voice was?
