Eunuch’s wife
passed away: I still remember that I was a princess of a noble family when
I was in love with Thrushcross, but I fell in love with this Dynasty for nine thousand years.
But he will be executed by Ling Chi.
But the world does not know that nine thousand years old is reborn this time.
I had a ridiculous dream. The scaffold was cast high, and the crown prince was in prison.
Kneeling on the stage, the prisoner looked fearlessly at the prince, with the corners of his lips raised, and said, “The common people are deceiving the throne.” It was taboo for
the prisoner to speak before the execution. As a rule, the tongue was pulled out. The executioner went down with a knife, and a large amount of blood gushed out of his mouth.
The prince suddenly turned pale and ordered the execution before noon.
I saw the stripped prisoner show his mutilated body to the world, and the executioner raised his knife and went straight to the vital part.
“The twenty-fourth crime is to meddle in the government as an eunuch and murder the crown prince. He should be sentenced to Ling Chi in order to pacify all the people in the world.” The official read the last sentence of the verdict and bowed to the prince.
Unlike Ling Chi in the past, the prince wanted his life as soon as he made a move.
I stood in the audience, surrounded by a crowd of curses, who scolded him for his good death, completely forgetting who earned the present Hai Qing He Yan desperately. The prisoner
on the stage is dead.
After that, it was Ling Chi with thousands of knives.
I saw the eunuch holding the bright yellow imperial edict, but only had time to see the blood all over the ground. He can’t wait for the decree of
mercy. In the paper money
all over the sky, I was dressed in sackcloth, holding the spirit tablet to the palace.
I saw the emperor on his sickbed get up and look at the spirit tablet at the gate of the palace with tears streaming down his face.
I saw the prince kneeling in front of the emperor with a winner’s smile on his face. In the dream
of Nanke, I remember that all the people in the dream could not see the face of the prisoner clearly. Who is
he?
I am the legitimate daughter of the General’s Office. After my mother died, the Empress Dowager issued a decree to bring me up in the palace.
They all say that I am the future Crown Princess, the son of the imperial concubine and the only prince of Your Majesty is my future husband. After
listening to this for a long time, I also think I will be a queen in the future.
It was not until I had that absurd dream that I actually lowered my status and held a wake for a eunuch who could not see his face clearly.
It’s ridiculous and terrible. I
am the Lord of Zhaoyang County. I was born noble. How could I marry a eunuch?
When I woke up, I cried for a long time. I can’t
say it’s because I’m afraid of marrying a eunuch, or I can’t get out of my dream.
In autumn, as usual, the Empress Dowager would go to the Buddhist temple outside the palace to burn incense. She would not return to the palace for nearly a month, but I did not go with her because I was ill two days ago. In the absence of
the queen mother, there was no one in charge of me in Palace of Compassion and Tranquility.
I think of my future husband, Ji Chengzong, the eldest son of the emperor.
He was the crown prince in my dream, but unfortunately I couldn’t marry him as the crown princess.
In a moment of fever, I went to the Minghua Palace without telling the palace people.
Ming Hua Dian is the place where teachers teach princes. Your Majesty attaches great importance to the eldest son of the emperor and invites the great Confucian to teach him. When I
arrived, I heard that the eldest son of the emperor had recently contracted an illness, and Your Majesty exempted him from attending classes in the Minghua Palace. When
I was about to sneak away, I heard the lady with a broken mouth say that your Highness had recovered from his illness today and would come to class. Turning around
, I slipped into the Ming Hua Hall and hid behind the screen.
It happened that there was a noise outside, and a group of little eunuchs came in to pack up.
Then there was a high drink at the door, and Your Majesty arrived. Inside the
hall, Wu Yang knelt on the ground.
I lay down behind the screen and didn’t dare to go out. If
Your Majesty knew that I had sneaked into the former court, he would certainly punish me.
The emperor stood in the doorway and looked around. Finally he stopped in front of a small eunuch and waved everyone back.
Li De immediately led a large group of people to retreat, leaving only the emperor and the little eunuch in the hall.
“What’s your name?” The emperor looked down at him.
“The maidservant is nameless.” The little eunuch knelt on the ground respectfully, and I was amazed by the standard of etiquette.
He was really different. He didn’t tremble at all when he met the emperor alone. He was much better than playboys I had seen.
“Unbridled!” The emperor seemed so angry that he pointed his finger at him and said,
“Everyone who enters the palace has a native place and a name. Why don’t you have one? You are guilty of deceiving the emperor!” When
the son of heaven was angry, he often bled thousands of miles, not to mention that he was only a slave in front of him.
The little eunuch straightened up respectfully to meet the emperor’s angry eyes. “The maidservant is an orphan. Outsiders call out a few times, but it’s not the name of the maidservant.”. A maidservant does not dare to go up to heaven to listen to anything other than his own parents.
This sounds ordinary to me, but your Majesty is strangely not angry.
He went to the table and unfolded a piece of rice paper.
The little eunuch immediately took the hint and came forward to grind the ink. His technique was very skillful. I don’t know if it was because he had been taught in the palace.
“Since you are nameless, I will give you a name.”
Your Majesty took up his pen and wrote two characters by hand. Smiling, he said to the little eunuch, “The mountains are high and the scenery is beautiful. I present you with the two characters of Jing Xing. I hope you will have noble moral character and behave in a standard way.”
Jing Xing respectfully took the calligraphy from the emperor, bowed his head and knelt down. “My maidservant thanks your majesty for giving me your name.”
I thought, this is really strange. The
son of heaven can also give a name to a maidservant.
“Li De.” The emperor shouted out, and when they came in, he looked at Jing Xing again. “I have given you this child to go to the inner school to learn something. You should watch him carefully for me. He doesn’t have to do the rest of the work. He should learn well first.”
Li De did not expect such a strange order, but he did not dare to hesitate, hurriedly answered.
The emperor stepped out, stopped again, and exhorted, “Take him there yourself.”
“Yes, the maidservant obeys the decree.”
When the emperor had gone, Li De got up from the ground and looked at Jing Xing several times. “I didn’t see how you were, except that you looked better. Why did the master look at you differently?”
He asked. “What the ancestors didn’t understand, the maidservants couldn’t understand.”
Li De had no intention of getting entangled in this matter, but thought that he was a good talker and had won the emperor’s green eye. “You’re still young, so take me for a godfather.”
This is really a step to the sky, I looked behind the screen, palm seal eunuch’s grandson, how many people want, even some officials of the former Dynasty have demoted their status, called Li De’s godfather.
Jing Hsing smiled. He looked up at Li De. “This is a dead end.”
Li De suddenly turned pale.
Without waiting for him to lose his temper, Jing Xing went on to say, “For our ancestors, this is a road to their own destruction.” With a snort,
Li De raised his hand and slapped him down. “Where did you get a cheap hoof? After a few words with your master, you don’t know what’s good for you.”
Jing Xing was beaten and fell to the ground, which showed that Li De’s slap was forceful.
He looked up, still smiling, and the red palm prints stood out on his beautiful white face.
He was also a madman. I looked at him coldly behind the screen and offended Li De. He was afraid that he would not have a good life in the future.
Li Teh frowned at him, wondering how his master could take a fancy to such an unruly little boy.
Jing Hsing clenched the rice paper in his hand and said carelessly, “Please wait for me for a few days.”
He glanced back at the screen and then looked at Li Te. “I have a gold medal to avoid death, but my ancestors didn’t.” When
Li De heard this, he raised his hand and put it down again. He looked at Jing Xing on the ground and said in disgust, “Get up. Our family will take you to the inner school.”
The inner school is the place where the eunuchs in the palace learn things. In
the Qi Dynasty, there was a ritual supervisor, and all the eunuchs in the ritual supervisor had to go to the inner school to read and write.
Jing Xing got up from the ground, low eyebrows pleasing to the eye, totally unlike the publicity just now.
I raised my eyebrows and saw ambition in his drooping eyes.
His initial goal was probably the position of the head seal of Si Lijian.
I came out from behind the screen, saw such a play, and had no intention of looking for the eldest son of the emperor, and slipped back to the Palace of Compassion and Tranquility while people were not paying attention. It was an afternoon when he
saw Jingxing again. He was sent out by a group of people to fetch water. It was hard for him to carry a bucket.
I sat on the steps not far from the well and waved to him. “Come here.” There was no surprise in his eyes when he
saw me.
“The maidservant has seen the county master.”
What a fierce villain! I wondered in my heart. Maybe it was a coincidence that he found me last time. If he knew who I was, he would not be an ordinary person.
I stared at him and said, “People in the open don’t talk in secret, and they don’t want the wealth and honor of the sky. I don’t understand this kind of thing.”
He got up from the ground, patted the dust on his robe, and sat down next to me. “Why does the county governor think I did this?”
I held my cheek and looked at him. “Do you think I know?”
He smiled. “Li De has great power, but he’s just a slave. It’s not worth my trouble.” Then he pointed to the palace wall. “Without Reed, your majesty doesn’t know what’s going on in the palace?”
I suddenly realized. “You want your majesty to know that Reed didn’t take care of you according to the decree.”
“Yes.”
I pursed my lips. “It’s no use. Reed has taken care of Your Majesty since he was a child. You can’t drive a wedge between them. This thing can’t even touch him.”
He’s still smiling. He really likes to laugh.
Finally, Jing Xing imitated me and held up his face to look at me. “I told you he was a slave.”
I want to refute him very much, are you also maidservant?
But when I see his smile, ask suddenly do not give a word.
This sentence is very hurtful.
King Hsing stood up and picked up the wooden barrel on the ground. “I told you I had the gold medal to avoid death. This is my biggest card, and Li De can’t violate it.” When I saw
him leaving, I asked him devilishly, “Are you the one in my dream?”
“I’m not.”
His body trembled, and then he looked back at me. “So much for a person to be humiliated to the extreme. Ah Li, I don’t want to be him.”
Glass is my word, no one shouted for a long time, when I heard it again, I lost my mind for a while. When he
came to his senses, he carried the barrel to the well, tied the rope with difficulty, and drew water from the well.
He told me that the dream was not a dream, but a fact.
I sat aside and saw him stagger out with a full bucket of water.
He is very hard to live.
As he said, Li De is just a slave, not worth his efforts to please, followed by bullying, he is also willing to accept.
This is his pride.
I think I underestimated him. He doesn’t want to be the eunuch of the inner court. He wants to be the prime minister of the world.
I immediately shook my head, to give a slave such a high evaluation, I am also silly.
I sat on the steps for a long time until the sunset, and then reluctantly got up. The man in
my dream, he said, the common evil deceives the throne. The
eldest son of the emperor was indeed a concubine, and he could not complain that after hearing this, he was executed ahead of time regardless of the holy order.
But Your Majesty has no legitimate son at present. Someday
in the future, does your majesty marry the queen and have a legitimate son? Is
Jing Xing a prince? Ling Chi was the end of the prince’s failure to fight for the throne?
But in front of the palace gate, why did the emperor cry so sadly?
Since he was sad to kill him, why did he have to issue Ling Chi’s imperial edict?
I don’t understand.
The third time I saw him was in the emperor’s palace.
He has won the favor of His Majesty. He is not very old, but he can serve in front of the emperor.
I heard that when Li De handled the memorial, he ignored the imperial order and was ordered by the emperor. Then, Your Majesty asked Jing Xing to wait on him. Sure enough,
he has a gold medal to avoid death. Half a month after
the Empress Dowager went to the Buddhist temple, the emperor summoned me to the Palace of Heavenly Purity. When
I paid my respects to Your Majesty, Jing Xing was finishing his tea and standing respectfully by his side.
“Zhaoyang is here.” The emperor put down the memorial in his hand, took the manuscript and handed it to Jing Xing. “This is the new policy of the former court. Take it to the emperor’s eldest son and let him write an article.”
“Yes.” Without waiting for your majesty to react, Jing Xing answered quickly and walked out. When
he passed by me, he gave me a shallow smile.
When His Majesty realized who the transcript had been given to, he was obviously stunned.
The most intuitive consequence was that he forgot me, and I knelt on the ground for a while before he thought of letting me get up.
“Your grandfather said he missed you and wanted you to go home. I’ve given him permission. Choose a day to go home.”
I knelt on the ground again and said, “Depend on your majesty’s heavenly grace. My daughter has been taught by the Empress Dowager for many days. It is difficult to repay your majesty and the Empress for ten thousand deaths.”
The emperor smiled and glanced at me. “Zhaoyang has learned these beautiful words, too. Get up quickly.”
I spoke to His Majesty again, and he asked me to step down.
I took the cloak from the palace and was about to leave when I saw Li De standing solemnly outside the hall. He was stunned for a moment before he came to salute.
“What’s wrong?” I asked.
“The imperial concubine passed on her staff and said she would kill a man with it.”
I looked back at the cascading doors.
One side is the mother of the eldest son of the emperor, and the other side is the maidservant that his majesty wants him to take care of.
Li De didn’t want to offend the imperial concubine, so he wanted me to be the scapegoat.
If it was someone else, I would leave, but it was Jing Xing, the eunuch with a smile on his face.
Look at Li De’s appearance, even if he was scolded by His Majesty afterwards, he did not want to go in and complain at this time. It’s not a big deal to kill a maidservant with a
stick. Even if you don’t report it to your majesty, what can you do?
To say the least, even if your majesty knows about it, who can guarantee that your majesty will protect the scenery and reprimand the imperial concubine?
I smiled coldly and turned to step into the hall again.
“Your Majesty.” I called him softly.
“What’s the matter?”
I took a breath and knelt on the ground to salute. “I heard Li Zhangyin say that the imperial concubine wanted to kill a palace man with a cane. Such a dirty thing should not have been heard by heaven, but I couldn’t bear it. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me.”
The emperor put down his pen and looked at me coldly. “Zhaoyang, do you want to intercede for him?”
“Yes.”
“You live in the palace and are a foreign minister. Who gave you the courage to come to me and interfere in the affairs of the court?” The emperor pounded the table and said angrily.
I looked into your majesty’s eyes, neither humble nor arrogant. “One moment I saw him serving tea for your majesty, and the next moment I’m going to see his body. I’m not a person with a heart of stone. I can’t bear to see him.”
“What did you say?” When the emperor realized who I was talking about, he lost his mind for a moment, then got up and shouted, “Reed, go to the Walter Palace.”
Jing Xing to do so, is really risky, if no one will be beaten to his majesty, he really will die.
Thinking about it, I smiled. He
believed in me. He believed in me without reservation.
I’m here. He’s risking his life.
I followed His Majesty to the Waldorf Palace.
His Majesty’s instrument was mighty, and the palace executioner knelt on the ground.
“The imperial concubine really has a good temper!” The emperor scolded and walked toward the hall. “Get in here!” Then
I stepped into the door of the Waldorf Palace.
Jing Xing lay on the stool, blood flowing down from his body, and soon there was a pool on the ground.
He laughed at me when he saw me coming.
I moved my lips and felt sour in my throat. I couldn’t say what I wanted to say, so I had to take off my cloak to cover his scarred body.
The maidservant was executed without clothes, and his discomfiture was all seen.
This time, the prisoner was the imperial concubine, who did not have the courage of the prince in her dream and failed to strike a fatal blow.
Soon, Li De came out of the hall and grabbed the eunuch Li Mao, who was accompanying him. “Go to the Imperial Hospital and ask the head of the hospital to come over. You, hurry up.” He moved to the side temple. When the executioner
next to him saw Li De’s attitude, he wept shakily, “Please tell our ancestors if there is any way for the maidservants to live.”
One of the eunuchs, who could not hold his breath, shouted, “The slaves saw the execution, and he was not cleansed. This is a capital crime.”
They did their best to excuse themselves, but Reed ignored them and coldly ordered, “Surround the Huade Palace, and don’t let a fly out.” At the
command, all the people present turned pale.
Jing Xing was moved to the side hall, Li De personally take care of him, look extremely anxious.
I stood in front of Jing Xing’s bed. His face was pale and his blood soon soaked the bedding.
“Li De.” Jing Xing spoke softly, his breath going gossamer. “Am I right? I was saving you that day.”
Li De shivered and remembered the palace secrets of many years ago. With a wave of his hand,
he shouted back all the palace people. Ignoring my presence, he knelt down and slapped himself hard. “The maidservant is outspoken..” Forgive me, sir.
Li De changed the name of Jing Xing from “he” to “Childe.”.
Jing Xing lay tired on the bed and had no strength to talk to him. When
the Imperial Physician was treating Jing Xing’s wound, there was a muffled hum from outside.
I looked through the window and felt blood all over the sky. I turned my head sideways and retched a few times. I closed the window immediately.
On this day, your majesty killed all the palace people in Huade Palace, even the palace people he brought, except Li De and Li Mao.
He buried the fact that Jingxing was beaten and enslaved with countless deaths. After the head of
the hospital took the medicine, the emperor came to see him.
The emperor looked at Jing Xing with very complicated eyes.
“This is the son of my benefactor, and he is living in the palace. I should take care of him. Now that the truth has come out, I should let him out of the palace.”
“I & # x2F; The maidservant understands.” Three people took the hint.
The emperor immediately put his eyes on me.
“I haven’t seen anything today, and I won’t tell my father and brother.”
“Very good.” Then the emperor turned and left.
“Your Majesty!” Jing Xing woke up and called him with all his strength.
The emperor paused. “What’s the matter?”
“That’s all you have to say?”
The emperor turned around and his lips moved. “Change your name after you leave the palace.”
Jing Xing smiled sarcastically. “May I ask Your Majesty, what is your benefactor’s surname?”
He glanced at Jing Xing and said, “Gu.”
Jing Xing instantly restrained his emotions and said respectfully, “My maidservant, may I ask if I can be named Gu Jing?”
“Yes.” The emperor did not want to waste his breath and turned away.
Ching Hsing smiles at Li Teh. “Li Zhangyin has been kneeling for most of the day, but it’s all for nothing.”
Li De did not dare to take his words, hurried to keep up with the emperor’s footsteps, followed by Li Mao.
I sat down before the bed and said to him, “I am also leaving the palace. On the day of my birth, I invite you to come and play.”
“Good.” Jing Xing should have a bright smile.
The next day, the emperor issued an imperial edict, saying that he had encountered an assassin when he was a teenager. Fortunately, the benefactor saved his life. Now he has found the son of the benefactor and named him Cheng Enbo.
The emperor found a mansion for Jingxing outside the palace, which was very close to my home and was in the golden section of Beijing.
I am very happy that I can find him every day if I am close to him.
Jing Xing was still convalescing, and every time I went there I could smell the strong smell of the medicine, and I complained casually, “The imperial concubine is so unjust, and you don’t see your majesty punishing her.”
He smiled. “The eldest son of the emperor is the crown prince in the eyes of your majesty. How can mother of the crown prince be so flawed?”
I skipped the subject and asked him, “Why do you love to smile so much?”
At first his smile froze, and then he replied to me, “The palace is full of nobles, and they fake smiles every day. This habit can’t be changed.”
I said to him, “I remember something. In the dream, or in the future, you are the eunuch in charge of the government and the public. You are even better than Li De.”
“I remember you and Gu Xiang fought very fiercely, one on the outside and the other on the inside, and all your moves were killing moves.” I took a sip of tea to moisten my throat. “Xiangye is a good man. Don’t do that this time.”
Jingxing didn’t smile this time. He said to me very seriously, “I won’t. I’ll treat the prime minister with courtesy.”
This time I smiled. I grabbed the candied fruit from my plate and shoved it into his mouth. “Your reward.” As soon as he bit his
teeth, the sweet taste filled his lips and teeth, covering the taste of bitter medicine and the misery of the first half of his life.
He was very happy and came forward to hold my hand. “Ah Li, I want to see your grandfather.”
I nodded, not surprised by his words.
His ambition far exceeds that of all the people in the world, which is very much to my taste.
My grandfather was granted the title of Duke of Zhenguo and was a famous general. When
Jing Xing went in with me, my father was talking to my grandfather. After
I saw the gift, my grandfather called me over and said, “Do you like the gift I gave you?”
“I like it very much, and my granddaughter even prepared a gift in return.”
Grandfather laughed and asked casually, “What is it?”
I leaned over to reveal the scenery behind me. When the
grandfather looked over, he was taken aback. “Uncle Cheng?”
“What nonsense!” The father stood up to greet him. “Cheng Enbo, please take a seat. My daughter is ignorant, and I hope the sea will forgive her.”
Jing Hsing made a solemn obeisance to his grandfather. “Jing Hsing has been pleased with the county governor of Zhaoyang for a long time, and when the county governor meets him, Jing Hsing wants to marry him.” As soon as
this remark was made, the whole room turned pale.
Grandfather frowned as if he were thinking about something. The
father, on the other hand, was taken aback and managed to pull out a polite smile. “My daughter is still too young to discuss marriage.”
I looked at Jing Xing and wondered how he would solve it.
Jing Xing bowed again. “Your Majesty calls me the son of a benefactor. There are too many kinds of kindness in the world, such as the kindness of saving life and the kindness of giving birth to a child.”. Even if the Duke’s wife gave birth to a legitimate son and continued the family line, she could be said to have been kind to the Su family.
Grandfather never understood and became surprised. Then he got up hurriedly and looked up and down at the scene. Finally, he pointed to the door and said, “Don’t spread the word today. You all go out.”
My father looked puzzled, and I was also confused.
“Husband and wife are one. The Duke doesn’t have to avoid my future wife.” The father who said
this was furious, and without waiting for the attack, he was severely gouged out by his grandfather, and could only leave with a dusty face.
I laughed, and I had the ability to frustrate my staid father.
Grandfather stood in front of King Hsing, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a sigh, “No wonder your name is Ku.”
Jing Xing retorted, “My surname is not Ku.” Both of
them have something to say. When the
grandfather heard this, he only said, “Ah Li is going to be the crown princess in the future.”
Jing Xing shook his head. “She’s going to be a queen in the future.” Stunned,
the grandfather clapped his hands and exclaimed, “Good spirit.”
Ching Hsing took out a map from his bosom and said, “Ching Hsing is not talented. Can you talk to Kuo Gong for a while?”
I could see that my grandfather was very happy. He sat down on a chair next to him and said, “Please give me some advice.”
“The Yenshan Mountain is a natural barrier. To the north are the nomads, who leap down from another plain and plunder year after year.” Pointing to the map, he said, “From here to the west, the Xiongnu have a strong army, which is a disaster for our court.”
“In your son’s opinion, how can you solve the problem?” My grandfather asks with great interest.
“Fight.”
“Who will be a general?”
“In ten years, Cao Ou will be a general.” Pointing to some areas on the western side of the island, he said, “This is a place to do business and open up a prosperous road. Ten years later, there will be a surplus of military expenditure.”
“Good plan.” Grandfather looked at him encouragingly.
“Apart from trade on land, we should not neglect trade on the sea.” He pointed to a long river, pointing down the course of which he said, “Building water conservancy projects and building canals will make a great contribution to the future.”
I stood in front of the map and looked up. To be honest, I don’t think this is all Jingxing’s ability. In the
dream, he was a powerful eunuch in charge of the world, and also a general on the horse to expand the territory for thousands of miles.
But now, after all, he is only fourteen years old.
He is a boy who has never seen the scenery beyond the Great Wall and the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers.
Jing Xing said a lot, but his grandfather sat down and bowed to him, saying, “How lucky it is to have a son in the Qi Dynasty.”
Jing Xing talked with his grandfather at night, and I fell asleep on the chair when I was sleepy.
Jing Xing got up and put the fur coat on me.
I didn’t sleep too well, so I grabbed his hand at random, and then I felt sleepy.
I dreamed a lot.
There is me, there is him, there is the emperor. The emperor in the
dream accused him of being an eunuch and harming the country.
I saw him raise the corners of his lips sarcastically. “Maidservant, please ask, who made the contribution to the foreign submission?”
The emperor was silent, and then there was a long silence. It was I who
broke the silence. I said, “If I don’t marry Jingxing, I won’t marry in this life.”
I was stunned, the picture was dark in an instant, and I woke up.
Jing Xing had already left, and I went back to my bedroom. When Xiao Tao, the
maid, saw that I had woken up, she said to me with red eyes, “The next time the county governor spends the night at the Guogong’s, send someone to tell the maidservant that she didn’t see the county governor last night, and she was so frightened that she almost came to her wife.”
I comforted Xiaotao, and then I remembered that he was also called Jingxing in my dream.
Is it a coincidence or an accident?
I went to see Jingxing with this doubt.
“In a previous life, when did Your Majesty give you a name?”
He snorted. “Jing Xing was named by myself. Your Majesty was warning me that he was also born again.”
I see.
His Majesty knows his identity and is willing to save him.
Jing Xing knew this, so he was willing to put his life on the line.
The emperor named him, called his surname Gu, also warned Jing Xing, don’t think too much and don’t think too much.
I asked him, “What are you going to do?”
He sneered, “How dare you, the son of the evil concubine, deceive the throne?”
It was a very long and sad story.
Your Majesty’s Empress of the yuan Dynasty collapsed on the Winter Solstice, with the posthumous title of Empress Mingduan. The case of the pulse buried in the
dust records a fact that can make people tremble with fear.
The queen is one month pregnant.
When the emperor was on a tour of inspection to the south, she gently stroked her belly and said, “Your father and I are looking forward to your birth.”
The Imperial Physician knelt on the ground to congratulate him. “Congratulations to the Empress! Congratulations to the heir of the Qi Dynasty!”
Qi Chao Li Di Li Chang, the eldest son of the empress was born as the crown prince.
The empress smiled and motioned to the maid of honor to grab a handful of gold red melon seeds and put it in the hand of the imperial physician. “Father has been looking forward to his grandson for a long time. Xu Taiyi, you go and tell father that he should be relieved.”
She wants to give this joy to her husband personally.
Just a long way, the emperor went hunting in the forest, she met the former counterattack on the way, since then disappeared. When the
officials found the empress a few months later, it was already a corpse. The emperor sighed and burned the pulse case in his hand, and ordered the empress to be buried.
Her child, Jing Xing, who was supposed to be the favored son of heaven, drifted among the people. When he was
ten years old, he was sold into the imperial palace. When he was twenty years old, he sat in the position of the eunuch in charge of the seal. He was in power. When he was twenty-two years old, he was executed by Ling Chi in front of all the people.
I sighed and held Jing Xing’s hand tightly. “Your Majesty has given us a banquet Lunar New Year’s Eve, but I may not invite you. My family will hold a banquet for my colleagues in the court after the New Year. I invite you to come.”
He smiled again, and his eyes lit up at me. “Ah Li, I’m glad he’s been reborn. He spent most of his life trying to figure out whether or not I’m of royal blood. He came back with the answer, and I didn’t have to bother to get him to believe me.”
He smiled and straightened my crooked hairpin. “He won’t want to see me until I crown him.”
This is true, after the emperor named him Cheng Enbo, he turned a blind eye to him.
Lunar New Year’s Eve, he invited many people to the feast, but he avoided the son of his benefactor. When I came back
from the palace, I slipped away to his house, and that night, we talked about past life memories from juvenile anecdotes.
Years later, my family held a banquet as usual, and I took him to the front of everyone.
All of a sudden, everyone’s eyes turned to me.
I’m not afraid of that.
In a previous life, when he was a slave, I dared to hold his hand and tell the world. In this life, why is it so difficult?
I said, “Grandfather, I want to marry him.” The faces of all the people
present were stiff. Everyone knew that I was the Crown Princess of Your Majesty. This was the reason why the Empress Dowager put me in the palace.
My father’s face was blue, and it took him a long time not to beat me again.
Grandfather looked at me cheerfully. “Since ancient times, parents’ orders, matchmakers’ words. My child, what about yours?”
I raised my face. “Xiaojing has no father or mother, so he can make his own decisions. If Grandfather agrees, it’s the order of his parents.
My words amused a lot of people, and some of them whispered to each other that a lady from a good family should not be so indifferent in her words and deeds.
I don’t care what they say. I’m a child, and I always have a lot of reasons to fool around.
Ku Hsiang-wei narrowed his eyes and spoke for me in a rare way. “The county governor has ambition, but I don’t know how Cheng En-bo could hire him.”
“I’m 14 years old today, and I’m already a Jinshi. This year, I’ll be the new Number One Scholar.”
Gu Xiang burst out laughing. “If you enter the official career because of me, you will be half my apprentice. One day, I will visit you in person.” As soon as
Jing Xing bowed, he said, “Student Hsieh Hsiang-yeh.”
I led him away, this banquet, the court officials eat is not the taste, they always feel strange, but can not say.
A few days later, the officials in the court took the eldest son of the emperor as the eldest son, and asked him to set up the crown prince, but his majesty did not send it. When
Jing Xing was fourteen years old, he won the Number One Scholar in one fell swoop at the beginning of the imperial court, and was appointed by His Majesty as the first in the first class. During the
palace examination, he saw the emperor again, sitting in a high position with a smile on his lips.
Today, the emperor is in a good mood.
He kowtowed with Bangyan and Tanhua.
The emperor walked up to him and said, “You are the youngest Number One Scholar in the history of this Dynasty. There are many talented people in the world. I am very relieved. What do you want?”
“I am very happy to see the face of heaven.”
The emperor laughed and pointed to Jing Xing. “You shouldn’t learn how to coax me. You should learn how to help me.”
Jing Xing knelt on the ground and bowed his head respectfully. “I thank Your Majesty for teaching me.”
The emperor changed the subject and said, “I have heard that you have attacked the eldest son of the emperor by deceiving the emperor.” As soon as
this remark was made, the hall was silent, and the two Jinshi, who had just seen the emperor’s face, were so frightened that they broke out in a cold sweat that they could barely kneel down.
“Your Majesty should have heard that I had promised the position of Number One Scholar to marry the head of Zhaoyang County.” Jing Xing raised his head and looked into the emperor’s eyes for the first time.
The emperor burst out laughing and said, “I have drawn up a decree that I will marry my benefactor to the head of Zhaoyang County.”
The emperor went on to say, “I will draw up a decree again. The imperial concubine will serve you respectfully. She has rendered meritorious service in giving birth to the eldest son of the emperor. Now she is registered as the empress, and the treasure of the register is granted. The eldest son of the emperor should abide by the ancestral rites and make him the crown prince.”
Jing Xing bowed deeply to the ground and said, “I thank Your Majesty for your kindness, and I congratulate Your Majesty on having a successor.”
His voice woke up all the people present, and they all congratulated him. After
I heard the news from the court, I went to Cheng Enbo Mansion.
He is sharpening a knife in the yard.
Hearing the noise, he turned around and said, “Grandfather can’t come to see me because Your Majesty won’t allow it.”
“It’s all right for him to abandon me, but now he’s going to abandon my mother.”
“But the last thing he should do is admit me to court.”
I heard Xiaojing say a lot, and finally, he buried himself in my arms and cried.
Obviously, he should be the favored son of thousands of people, but now he is going to be crushed into mud.
Why?
I had my first fight with my grandfather.
“Just because I’m willing to bet on him doesn’t mean I’m willing to give him the whole Su family!” My grandfather looked at me with hatred. “Your Majesty has given you and him a marriage because you don’t want to trust the Su family any more. He has exchanged this marriage contract for the empress and the crown prince.”
He stood up angrily and raised the ring board in his hand. “Who allowed you to go to Your Majesty and cry out to marry him?” “Grandfather,”
I said, “I just want to marry him. That’s my wish. I’m afraid it’s too late.”
He sighed. “Your Majesty clearly thinks he’s a civilian, and his blood is in doubt.”
I laughed. “The last thing Your Majesty should do is allow him to enter the court.”
They don’t know.
They thought that Jing Xing became an official in order to get Gu Xiang’s support.
Only me and him know that it’s just a cover.
When Xiaojing was sixteen years old, he became a minister of the Ministry of Personnel and became the youngest second-grade official.
This year, I was fourteen years old. I counted on my fingers. Next year, I will marry him. When
I was fifteen years old, Xiaojing was ordered by the emperor to relieve the disaster. When I returned to Beijing, all the people along the way wept bitterly.
This year, I married him in a bright wedding dress.
That night, when the stars were shining brightly, I drank wine with him and closed the curtain with a smile.
A good night’s sleep. When
I was sixteen years old, I was pregnant, and Xiaojing was ordered to send troops outside the pass. Before I
left, I held him tightly. “I’ll wait for you.”
He rested his chin on my shoulder. “Four more years.”
Yeah, four more years.
I stood on the wall, watching him ride to war, the sunset will pull his shadow very long, for a long time, he finally disappeared.
I wiped the tears from my face and went down the wall.
A few months later. The night
I gave birth, Xiaojing was not by my side, and when I gave birth to a pair of children, he could not see one side. When the
child was one month old, Gu Xiang sent a jade bracelet, not for the child, but for me.
The emperor also issued a decree on the same day that if Xiaojing won, he would add the title of Marquis and allow my family to inherit the title.
The prince himself came to deliver the gift, and looking at the two children carved in powder and jade, I smiled. “Can I choose a name?”
I said. “Even if I don’t have a name, it’s not your Highness’s turn to choose one.”
He frowned and then relaxed. “It’s lonely and confused. It’s up to the father himself to name it.” Then
he took out the gold bracelets and put them on the two children.
I teased the child, “Thank you, uncle.”
The prince’s face stiffened.
“I forgot that your Highness did not know about it.” “My husband is the son of the late Empress yuan,” I said with a smile. His face was white with
fear, and he half shouted at me, “Nonsense.”
“If not, why does your Highness have to be guarded by others when he sees the queen?”
He looked at me in disbelief. “Su Li, you are guilty of talking nonsense about the family affairs of Gu Tian.”
“Xiao Jing is the son of yuan Hou yuan. Now he holds the military power and has the support of our government. Your Highness feels that. On the side of the civil servants, Gu Hsiang-hui doesn’t support his own grandson. Besides, Hsiao Ching was a civil servant, and his former students are all over the world. I laughed. “Your Highness is the one who stole the throne.”
When the prince finally walked out of the door, I bent down, took off the bracelet between the child’s wrists, and threw it on the ground.
In this world, the most difficult thing is the human heart.
Outside the door, the maid called me, “There will be a feast ahead.”
I took one look at the two babies and smiled. Soon, soon.
Prince is also a wise man, I do not have to say clearly, he will go to investigate. The most unconcealed person in
this investigation is Your Majesty.
The prince has been dependent on the son of heaven since childhood, and it can be said that his power comes from your majesty.
Jing Xing is fighting in the front, and there is no chaos behind him.
The emperor found a reason to rebuke the prince for his incompetence and ordered him to reflect in the East Palace.
Half a month later, when the news of victory came, Your Majesty was overjoyed and hosted a banquet for Jing Xing in person.
The prince was still imprisoned in the East Palace at this time. He listened to the festive music and sneered. The beauty beside him handed him a glass of wine, and the prince drank it down.
Three days later, the minister of the Ministry of Rites released the ban on the crown prince, saying that the crown prince was the foundation of the country and should not be moved lightly.
The emperor read the memorial and said nothing.
The next day, he went to the East Palace in person, but saw the prince playing in the flowers, and the emperor was furious.
I snuggled into Xiaojing’s arms and said, “Soon.”
He smiled and kissed my hand. “I told you, Ah Li will be a queen in the future.” On the New Year’s Eve of
this year, Your Majesty finally invited Xiaojing, but he said he was ill. Xiaojing and
I cooked mutton in the mansion.
He took hold of my hand and said to me, “Why should I enter the palace again as a guest?”
Yes, my little Jing should be the master of the palace.
I heard that at the New Year’s Eve banquet, the prince wrote “The Untamed Ode” and handed it in. Your Majesty cried when he saw it and released him from the East Palace. When
I was seventeen years old, the queen died and the prince was in great sorrow.
I really did not think that the prince could be so stupid that he could not wait to break away from his majesty’s control.
In recent days, the prince’s words and deeds have no shape, many have contradicted your majesty, and his ambition is obvious. The death of
the empress was a warning to him from the emperor.
Father and son no longer trust, and our chance has come. On the day of
my birthday, because the queen’s funeral was not held in a big way, the family gathered together for a meal. In the middle of the
meal, the officers and soldiers surrounded Hou Fu, and the leader said that Your Majesty had issued an imperial edict, saying that my husband had rebelled and would be brought to justice immediately.
I peeled a shrimp, put it in my husband’s bowl, and asked him, “Are you ready?”
“I will put the phoenix crown on Ah Li’s head.”
He raised his eyebrows, and all the servants in the house took off their cloth clothes, revealing the armor of the outer room. The eunuch who
came to announce the decree turned around and stabbed the dagger into the leader’s belly. As soon as
the leader died, the soldiers behind him were in a mess and were captured by the government soldiers.
Li Mao knelt down and said, “The maidservant knocks down to see your Highness.”
Xiaojing was able to escape the clean body, but also rely on him. After
the yuan Dynasty, there were many people in the palace who were grateful to him.
That night, the city was in flames of war.
Finally, Xiaojing led his troops to put down the rebellion and saved the emperor.
At that time, the emperor’s eyes were complicated and the prince was crazy.
The next day in the court, the emperor issued a letter to abolish the prince as a commoner, and said that Xiaojing had made contributions to pacifying the chaos, and added the title of the Duke of Guogong.
At this time, Gu Xiang came out, and the old man burst into tears. “I am old, and my only wish in this life is to find the posthumous son of the empress. Thanks to Your Majesty’s protection, I finally found him.”
He asked someone to show him the case of the upper pulse, saying, “This is the record of the doctor Xu’s visit to the empress. I have also found a witness and are waiting outside the hall.”
The emperor took the case, he knew it was false, but he had to admit that it was true, he had only one son.
“Chuan.” The second son of the emperor identified by the
witness was Jing Xing, who was the prestigious Lord Protector in the government and the people.
Gu Xiang’s witnesses were very neat and interlinked, and all the people present covered their faces and sobbed, lamenting the rough life of their legitimate son.
After all, they have no other choice.
Finally, Gu Xiang said, “Your Highness has a birthmark on his shoulder. I hope Your Majesty will examine it.”
The emperor took one look at Jing Xing and took him to the inner room.
Jing Xing kowtowed to the ground and asked, “Can I call Your Majesty Father?”
The emperor waved his hand wearily. “I have never forbidden you.”
The emperor recognized him with golden words, and the matter was settled here. When
I was eighteen years old, the emperor conferred the crown prince on the second son of the emperor, and I became the crown princess.
I often take a pair of children to see the Empress Dowager. She is old and loves to hold her grandchildren.
Xiaojing sometimes goes there with me.
The queen mother sighed to him first and then felt distressed.
Sigh his blood in doubt, love him for many years in the folk. It was
also in this year that Xiaojing was twenty years old. His Majesty crowned him and gave him the word Junhao. When
I was nineteen years old, the emperor was seriously ill and the prince was in charge of the country. When
I was twenty years old, the emperor died and the crown prince ascended the throne. That year, Xiaojing was twenty-two years old. I wore a phoenix crown on my
head and stood with him on a high place to receive the congratulations of the officials.
His first imperial edict was to make me queen.
His second imperial edict was to make our son a crown prince and our daughter a princess.
Our eldest son’s name is Ji Yuze, and our daughter’s name is Ji Yuling.
They are all favored and loved by God. Xiaojing and
I love him and Yuling very much.
Then, ten months into my stay at the Palace of Earthly Tranquility, I fell ill. An avalanche
of memories came over me. No one
has ever asked me why Xiaojing was reborn.
In a previous life, Xiaojing was humiliated by his death. I held his ashes and worshipped Lingshan, exchanging my remaining life for his rebirth.
A life for a life. It’s
time for me to go. In the
first year of Chongde, the empress died and the emperor mourned. I’m Gu,
the man’s side story
. No, Ji Jingxing. Before
I saw the prosperity of the world, I was sent to the palace. Before I entered the palace, even the jade pendant left by my mother was taken away by human traffickers. The little eunuchs who
entered the palace had to do the dirty work in one place, and I was no exception.
The first time I saw Ah Li, I made a mistake and was beaten.
I was ordered to send clothes to the emperor’s eldest son, but I didn’t know that someone had accidentally dropped ink on it and wanted me to take the blame. The people of
the Waldorf Palace were not as easy to fool as I was. When they found out about this, the eldest son of the emperor ordered me to be beaten.
It happened that the head of Zhaoyang County came to look for the emperor’s eldest son. Naturally, she also saw me. She had never seen this scene before. She was stunned for a moment and then said to the emperor’s eldest son, “Your Highness, don’t fight.”
They all say that the head of Zhaoyang County is the future Crown Princess. The eldest son of the emperor naturally wanted to listen to the words of the
future Crown Princess, and he let people stop the punishment.
I limped back.
At that time, I did not know that I would be entangled with the two people in front of me for a lifetime, and I could not extricate myself.
Obviously they are masters, I am a slave, but I walked into their future.
After being punished in the Huade Palace, I understood the way of life in the palace, put down all the pride I could have, and tried my best to please the eunuch in charge.
I was so sweet that I won the favor of the master. Naturally, I knew who I had taken the blame for. But I couldn’t retaliate against him. He had a godfather who worked as a servant in the ceremony supervisor. Even the master eunuch couldn’t afford to provoke him.
Si Lijian, right? I also want to see what it looks like inside.
That year, when I was fourteen years old, I worshipped Si Lijian as my godfather. After the eldest son of the emperor entered the East Palace, I was sent to serve him.
Your Majesty has only one son, the eldest son of the emperor must be the future emperor, serving him is a very good job.
I am a eunuch in charge of purchasing in the East Palace. Once I went out of the palace and saw a jade pendant in a shop.
I stopped and looked at it for a long time and recognized that it was a jade pendant left by my mother.
The boss told me secretly that this was a thing in the palace, and it was not for sale unless it was twelve thousand.
But my mother is just a commoner, how can there be things in the palace?
I was determined to step into the quagmire.
I went to find my godfather and knelt on the ground to hand over the jade patterns that had already been painted.
I know it’s a dangerous thing, but it’s the fastest way for me to know the answer.
I had to do it.
Li Mao did not unfold the pattern drawings. “Do you want to know the source?”? Then do something for our family.
“My son listens to his godfather.” I answered respectfully.
He glanced at me and said, “Leave the Lord of Zhaoyang County. That’s your future master.”
I clenched my hands.
I met with the Lord of Zhaoyang County more than once.
The second time we met, she was standing in the light while I was fetching water.
She waved at me. “I remember you. What’s your name?”
I knelt down. “Qi’er.”
She giggled. “That’s not good. It sounds like a random name. If you have another name in the future, let me know.”
The second time we met, the second time, the third time and even countless times, I even fell in love with this girl.
In order not to give her trouble, but also want to protect the small friendship between me and her, I hid myself, do not want to attract the attention of big people, involving her.
Li Mao is my godfather, such a thing can not hide from him, but perhaps Si Lijian’s big man already knows, only I am still deceiving myself. When
Li Mao saw that I didn’t respond, he sighed, “You’re a smart kid. Why are you being such a jerk about this? Who are they and who are you?”? We are a group of slaves who have lost our roots, and we have lost our descendants. Why should we dare to be as noble as the county magistrate?
He handed me the pattern again. “Think about it. If you are willing, Godfather will guarantee that you will sit where I am now.”
I released my palm, took the drawing, put it in the heater, and burned it clean.
I just want a chance to see her in an open and aboveboard way. Godfather is right. It’s all a delusion. When
I wanted to leave, my godfather stopped me.
“If you want to protect her, how can you protect her?”
I took a deep breath and understood what my godfather meant.
I turned around and said, “Godfather, the mountain is high and the scenery is good. The maidservant can’t be a clean person, so I want to have a clean name. The maidservant wants to be called Jingxing in the future.”
Godfather promised me, and from that day on, I changed my name to Gu Jingxing. I
chose Gu because my surname has always been Gu. I used to be Gu Qier, but now I am Gu Jingxing. The head
of Zhaoyang County still has a few years to live. She was taken home by her family and went to the palace less. I haven’t seen her for a long time. It’s a good thing for me
not to see her. I can’t bear to destroy such a good girl.
From the time I was eight to fourteen, every time she saw me, there were endless snacks and gadgets in her cloth bag, and she liked to give them to me.
She said to me, “There are too many people in this world who can’t help themselves. You have to live well.”
She brought me books that I could not see. I used up all my spare time to read. Suddenly, I found that the outside world was too big, but I had no chance to see it. I was doomed to die of old age in the court of the four directions.
A few days later, when she came to pick up the books, she would ask me what I wanted to read next time, and sometimes we even talked about the people and governing the country.
These are the taboos in the palace, only in front of her, I dare to mention.
She told me not to salute her in private and to tell me what the outside world was like.
I am very envious of those who can take the imperial examination. At least they can come to ask for marriage and compete with the prince.
And I only dare to hide in the dark corner and bathe in her light greedily.
Desirable.
Having made up my mind, I joined Si Lijian.
I no longer asked my godfather to tell me where the jade patterns came from. After thinking for a long time, I still didn’t let go of this road.
The jade pendant involves my mother, which is likely to involve my life experience, and I can use it to ascend faster.
In the name of Si Lijian, it was very convenient to go out of the palace. I did several important things for my godfather. After I succeeded in attracting the attention of several Si Lijian dignitaries, I began to go to the store frequently.
This year, I was sixteen.
Ten thousand taels of jade pendant is really not easy to buy, the shopkeeper saw me every day, came over and said it could be a few hundred taels cheaper, I did not agree.
But I didn’t expect that my godfather would come in person.
He took an excited look at the jade pendant, did not steal or rob, paid the money and dragged me away.
Subsequently, the soldiers of the East Factory surrounded the store.
I knelt in his room again.
He held the jade pendant in his hand and looked at it for a long time. Then he asked me in a hurry, “Is this the pattern you said you would show me last time?”? How did you meet it? What does it have to do with you?
If the first person to ask me about this is my godfather, I’m going to tell the truth. After staying
in the palace for a long time, I naturally realized that the origin of the jade pendant was extraordinary, and it was probably a gift from the emperor.
“This was brought by the maidservant when she was a child. It was a relic of my mother’s. I lost it before I entered the palace.” As soon as
he pounded the table, he stood up and looked incredulous. This is the first time
I’ve seen him lose his temper like this.
But I don’t have to think much about it. Li De is the eunuch with the palm seal.
He looked at me first, and after receiving Li Mao’s gift, he took the jade pendant and left.
Godfather looked at me, that look is too complicated, with my years of experience, unexpectedly did not understand.
“Chi-er, when you get to the emperor, whether it’s your mother’s or not, don’t say it’s your mother’s.” I understand what
he said, but I’m not going to do it. The thing that
can disturb the master is either splashing wealth or death.
I don’t want to wait for Li De to die, so I have to gamble.
I saw the emperor.
He sat in the Imperial Study, rubbing the jade pendant with his fingers, unable to see whether he was angry or not.
Li De accompanied him.
I knelt down and made a big ceremony. “The maidservant knocks down to see the master, and the master is in peace.”
“Who are you?” The king spoke.
“My maidservant’s name is Ku Ching-hsing. Her mother died early, and she went to the palace when she was young.”
He smiled and asked me, “Do you know the origin of this jade pendant?”? I heard that you specifically asked Li Mao, “Gu Jingxing, what do you think of this jade pendant after so many years in the palace?”
I replied, “a son would not dare to talk about his late mother’s belongings.”
The emperor suddenly turned pale, and Li De was so frightened that he knelt directly on the ground.
“Well, you’ve learned to deceive me!” He knocked on the table with the jade pendant and said, “Take it out and beat him until he tells the truth.”
I was taken out, and this time no one could beg for me, nor for me. Inside the
hall, the emperor rubbed his forehead wearily. “Li De, where is his palace book?”? I want to hear the truth.
Li De hurriedly handed it to the emperor. “The maidservant has been checked out for three generations. She was an orphan. When she was young, she was picked up and raised by an old man. Later, when the old man died, she was captured by human traffickers and sold into the palace.”
He handed over the testimony of the man who had tortured the shopkeeper in the East Factory. “The shopkeeper bought the jade pendant from the black market, and the maidservant had sent someone to check it as soon as possible.” With a sneer,
the emperor said, “At the foot of the emperor, in an important place in the imperial palace, there are still cases of human traffickers. Let me investigate. If I find out, all of them will be beheaded. I’d like to see who dares to touch their young children!”
Li De should be frightened, this matter does not allow him not to report the truth, jade pendant involves the queen and the royal blood of the people, even if he does not tell the truth, the master will send the rest of the people to verify, when the time comes the same finished. Outside the
temple, I was knocked unconscious.
And I bet right, I didn’t die in the end, and I was locked up in the East Factory. The officials of the
East Factory interrogated me over and over again about the origin of the jade pendant. I told them all when I knew it. I had no reason to lie.
I gritted my teeth and lived in the East Factory for half a month, and your Majesty’s case was already full of evidence.
Li De knelt down with trepidation and told me that the fact was almost the same as what I said.
Traffickers sold me into the palace and then sold the jade pendant, which was transferred to the shopkeeper several times.
Fortunately, the trafficker was still alive and was locked up next door to me after he was caught in the East Factory.
I was lying on the ground covered in blood, and I felt that I couldn’t go on.
On this day, your majesty came to the east factory.
I knelt on the ground. The emperor frowned when he looked at me, but he didn’t say anything.
“If I let you go, it will be enough for you to spend a lifetime of splendor and wealth outside.”
I shook my head. “The maidservant heard that the Huns had invaded the border. The maidservant wanted to be a pawn.” “Gu Jingxing,”
he said coldly, “do you take yourself too seriously, or do you think there is no one in my court?”
I didn’t say anything. I just cried. Tears mixed with blood fell to the ground drop by drop.
His eyebrows furrowed and furrowed.
I said, “I’m already like this. I want to live. I don’t believe the prince doesn’t know about the jade pendant.”
I do not call myself a “slave,” but “I.”.
He looked at me for a long time, so long that I thought he would not promise me. Then he got up and left me only one sentence: “I am ashamed of your mother.”
I knew I was right. When I
walked on this road, my goal was to seal the palm of Si Lijian. When I really walked on this road, I found that I was too stupid.
My godfather was in charge of the East Factory. Although he couldn’t speak in my case, he still secretly handed me a note. There is a sentence written
on it that the owner of the jade pendant is Empress Gu of Ming Duan.
That day I was hit by a stick. I opened the note shivering and looked up and laughed.
It turned out that the master who punished me for the first time was only a concubine. It should have been me who
married Ah Li. The tears of
my laughter came out, and I felt no pain all over my body.
The officer thought I was crazy and dragged me out and beat me again. After I
swallowed the note, I didn’t say anything.
I can’t be a palm seal eunuch. The prince will try to kill me. I can only find another way.
The emperor finally agreed to my decision, but I am not the commander in chief, but sent to supervise the army.
I’m not afraid of death. I’m afraid I don’t have a chance. During the
recovery time, Ah Li came to see me many times, but I stopped her outside the door and did not see her.
She took out the prefect’s airs and knocked on the door, crying. “I’m the prefect. This is an order. Xiaojing, open the door for me. I just want to see you.”
I turned her down and didn’t see her until I went to war.
Two years later, when I came back triumphantly, Ah Li was still waiting for the word boudoir. When
I went to the Palace of Heavenly Purity to express my gratitude, I happened to meet Ah Li, who stood beside the emperor and looked at me quietly.
I knelt down and saluted His Majesty.
She even opened her mouth before Your Majesty, “Your Majesty always asks my daughter because of who is not married, and my daughter now tells Your Majesty that it is because of him, Gu Jingxing.”
Your Majesty pointed his finger at me and said with a sneer, “It is a great crime for you to interfere with the commander in chief in the capacity of a supervisor of the army. It is really an eunuch who harms the country.”
In the past two years, there were too many people who scolded me and impeached me. After all, the emperor forgot how he had promised me and believed the slander.
I sneered, “My maidservant, please tell me, who has done the work of a foreigner?”
The emperor was silent.
Finally, Ah Li said, “If I don’t marry Jing Xing, I won’t marry in this life.”
This contempt for the royal family, the emperor may be finally remembered that I am also his son, and did not blame down. When Ah Li and
I left the Palace of Heavenly Purity, she said, “Xiaojing, I will accompany you. Even if I die, I will accompany you.”
She’s really brave, but I’m not brave. In the Palace
of Heavenly Purity, I saw Your Majesty’s intention to kill.
My grandfather is Gu Xiang, if the support of the Su family, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not threaten the prince.
I lowered my head and whispered in her ear, “Ah Li, go. I’m going to die soon.”
Officials and eunuchs are irreconcilable contradictory groups.
Li didn’t listen to me. She took my hand and said with a smile, “I’ll accompany you.” I have been with him for
four years. When
I was twenty years old, Your Majesty punished Li De on trumped-up charges and made me a eunuch, which aggravated the contradiction between me and my courtiers.
I know. Your Majesty wants me dead. The night
I sat on the palm print, the prince condescended to see me.
I knelt and kowtowed to him.
He said, “What if he is the legitimate son of Nakamiya?”? In the end, they are only slaves at my feet.
I can’t annoy him. The life of Ah Li’s family is still in his hands.
I am willing to be bullied by him, and I just want him to protect my girl. I lost the game
with him from the beginning.
In order to protect my grandfather, I didn’t dare to let him know my identity. I fought him to the death in the court, so that your majesty could rest assured. When
I was twenty-two years old, someone wrote “Twenty-Four Crimes” to impeach me, and Your Majesty wrote an imperial decree and sentenced me to Ling Chi.
That day was the first time I spoke my mind. Son of the
common people, how dare you deceive the throne? After
my death, my soul floated into the sky, and I saw a lot. The emperor had white hair overnight, and seemed to regret his punishment of me.
I died in the capital, can not leave the capital, I do not know what a glass holding my ashes to do. When I opened my eyes
again, I was already in the clean room in the palace.
Incredibly, I was born again.
I found Li Mao when they weren’t looking.
I told him my story and asked him to help me.
He told me that before the queen left the cabinet, she would give him money to bury his father. Whether I was a prince or not, he decided to help me.
I entered the palace.
Unlike my previous life, I went to the Minghua Palace as soon as I came, but I met the emperor.
According to the timeline of previous lives, I did not say the name of Jingxing, but he offered to give it to me.
The emperor is telling me that he is also reborn. Now that
he has spent his whole life verifying my identity, it is time for him to pay some interest. I took
the job on my own initiative, and when I arrived at the Huade Palace, I asked the imperial concubine, “Does the empress still remember Empress Mingduan?”? Were the events of that year man-made or accidental?
This is the truth that Your Majesty said he was ashamed of my mother.
She panicked and tried to kill me.
But I know that a Li will not let me die.
I bet right.
The emperor was kind to me. Instead of killing me, he helped me cover up my identity.
It’s just that he didn’t recognize me. The prince of
folk origin, after all, he still dislikes my blood is not clean.
I’m not afraid he won’t recognize me, but I’m afraid I’ll lose this game from the beginning.
God favors me, let me be a good person, then I will live for him to see. Young man
with fresh clothes and angry horses, this is what Ah Li said to me.
I should live like this. When I was
fourteen years old, I won three yuan in a row, and Your Majesty mentioned in front of me that the common people were deceiving the throne.
He moved the heart of the reserve, I follow his wish, not at this time to announce my identity, as a deal, he is also willing to marry me and Su Li. The experience of my
previous life tells me that if I want to sit firmly in my seat, I can’t do without the help of the forces in Korea.
I chose the Ministry of Personnel, Your Majesty is also willing to satisfy me, and did not let me go to the Imperial Academy, but directly to the Ministry of Personnel.
The Ministry of Civil Affairs is in charge of the appointment and removal of officials, which is a good job for me.
I became an official in the Ministry of Personnel, and at the age of sixteen, I finally became a minister of the Ministry of Personnel. The first step of
my plan has been achieved.
Later, I took the initiative to leave the Ministry of Civil Affairs and took the job of disaster relief.
I have been gone for more than half a year.
Back to Beijing, the people cried along the way, this is the reputation of the people. When I
returned to the capital, I had already passed more than half of my seventeen years old. Li and
I finally married, your majesty did not bless me, I do not need his blessing.
Eighteen years old, the Huns attack, I led the troops again.
Your Majesty knows in his heart that no one is more suitable to lead the troops than me.
This time, I made a quick decision, sealed Wolf Ju Xu, and made a great achievement that I didn’t have in my previous life.
Unfortunately, I didn’t get to see the birth.
I couldn’t wait to see my wife and children, so I packed light and brought a small group of people back to Beijing.
On the way, I encountered an assassination.
As early as in the previous correspondence, a Li told me that the plan of Jingzhong had begun. Although
the assassination was unexpected, it was not entirely without response. I was wounded
, but I didn’t die. I went back to the capital alive.
I have the support of civil officials and military officers. The prince can’t assassinate me in the capital regardless of his face. Once I catch the evidence, it’s too ugly.
Your Majesty wanted to invite me on New Year’s Eve.
I don’t know what he’s thinking now, but if he can’t keep the prince, he can’t stop me.
As I expected, Lunar New Year’s Eve that night, he released the prince. After
the prince and courtiers, I gradually found that my power was intertwined and had reached the point of affecting most of the court.
He was afraid that after I told his life story, the courtiers would support me to succeed to the throne. From the patriarchal ethics, I should be the most orthodox prince.
He was not sure of the emperor’s mind, completely lost his reason, he began to seize power with his majesty.
But your majesty spring and autumn is prosperous, can’t tolerate this matter, many times reprimand prince, hope prince at this convergence, he good smooth crown prince.
Finally, Your Majesty even secretly executed the queen to warn the prince.
This act completely ignited the string between him and the prince.
The prince didn’t understand that the emperor wanted to protect his heart.
The emperor did not understand the prince’s fear.
Under the instigation of my military commanders, the prince rebelled, and I had a reason to take back everything I had.
I led my soldiers into the palace and saved His Majesty.
He looked at me blankly. “What did I do wrong?”
I sneered, “You are a failed father, both to my brother and to me.”
By this time, he had to recognize me. In
the court, he conferred the title of Lord Protector on me, and my grandfather, who had already been in contact with me, came forward to tell me about my life. When
the courtier saw that the protagonist was me, the heart that wanted to shout was silent.
My years of prestige have finally come into play.
I followed the emperor to the inner room, I want him to admit me, so that I can better sit in the seat. At the age of
nineteen, I became the second son of the emperor and the only heir to the throne. Li and
I held the child in our arms and worshipped the mother’s mausoleum.
I avenged my mother and got back what I wanted. I
chose the year when I was twenty years old to ask Your Majesty to make me crown prince. After
the deposed prince rebelled, your majesty handed over the government to me on the grounds of serious illness.
His Majesty later attended my coronation ceremony and crowned me personally.
His energy is really not what it used to be.
I asked Your Majesty, “What do you remember from your past life?”
He said, “I remember that after years of investigation, the final result was that you were my son. It’s ridiculous that my prince should be a eunuch.”
“And then?”
“Later, I will defend the royal family and the scenery. When you sit in my seat, you will understand my pains.”
Twenty-two years old. Your Majesty, the year I died in a previous life, you can abdicate. I said that to him.
But I didn’t think that at the age of twenty-two, he really died.
I took care of his funeral and ascended the throne. What
I didn’t expect was that Ah Li was also dying. The night
she died, I vomited blood and fainted. A pair of
our sons and daughters were crying in front of my bed. When I
woke up, I touched my son’s head.
I personally carried the coffin and sent Ah Li to the imperial mausoleum. When I
came back, I began to paralyze myself with politics.
When Yuze was crowned at the age of twenty, I passed the throne to him.
I went to the imperial mausoleum to accompany Li. I don’t want to die for
her life.
I stood in front of her coffin and whispered to her every day. The wind in the
imperial mausoleum is too cold, and I am alone again.
I watched a person’s life. When he was
ten years old, he was sold into the imperial palace. When he was twenty years old, he sat in the position of the eunuch in charge of the seal. He was in power. When he was twenty-two years old, he was executed by Ling Chi in front of all the people.
And I, holding his ashes and kowtowing to Lingshan, exchanged my life for his life. When he was
thirteen years old, he won three yuan in a row and was appointed by His Majesty as the new Number One Scholar. At the age of sixteen, he was appointed Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. At the age of eighteen, he led his troops to war and was granted the title of Wolf Juxu. At the age of nineteen, he was found by His Majesty and became the second prince. At the age of twenty, he was in the East Palace. At the age of twenty-two, he was enthroned as emperor.
And I, his wife, accompanied him to the highest position and was worshipped by all the people in the world.
