Sword Xia of the Shu Mountains Chapter 60: Assassination of Wei Zhongxian
Although Wei Zhongxian, with the help of Concubine Zheng, obtained his wish to control the military and political power within the court, he was not so enthusiastic about Concubine Zheng's desire to make Zhu Changxun the prince; whenever Concubine Zheng urged him to let the Wanli Emperor make Zhu Changxun the prince At that time, he always deliberately shied away from delaying the matter of letting Emperor Wanli change Zhu Changxun as the prince, which made Concubine Zheng doubt Wei Zhongxian's loyalty to her; so she secretly summoned Wei Zhongxian in Changshou Palace; when Wei Zhongxian himself After entering the Longevity Palace, I immediately knelt down and saluted Concubine Zheng
"The slave meets the noble concubine"
"Free Gift"
"Xie Guifei Niangniang"
"Come on, give a seat"
After Wei Zhongxian sat down, Concubine Zheng looked at Wei Zhongxian with a serious face and asked coldly
"Eunuch Wei, how do you think this palace treats you?"
"The maiden's kindness to the servants is as heavy as a mountain. The servants are today entirely because of the help of the maiden. Even if the servants die, they will never forget the kindness of the maiden to the servants"
"Since you still know the kindness of this palace, then why did you always refuse to let the emperor make my son Chang Xun the crown prince, but what do you mean by delaying it again and again? Are you loyal to this palace or to the emperor"
Hearing what Concubine Zheng said, Wei Zhongxian had already guessed why Concubine Zheng had summoned him in secret; so he pretended to be embarrassed and said to Concubine Zheng with a smile
"Oh my goddess, you have wronged the servant. The servant is always mentioning this matter to the emperor, but the emperor does not agree"
When Concubine Zheng heard this, she glared at her with an angry expression, and then slapped the table on her right and said angrily
"Damn, the emperor has clearly agreed to let my son Chang Xun become the crown prince, and that day in the council hall, Zhu Changluo himself expressed that he would give up the crown prince and give up the crown prince to Chang Xun, you Why do you have to argue?"
Wei Zhongxian handled this question from Concubine Zheng smoothly
"Noble concubine, you don't know that the reason why the emperor said that he wanted to change His Highness King Fu as the crown prince was to find an excuse to deal with those Donglin party members. To establish His Royal Highness King Fu as the crown prince, it turns out that the emperor has no such plan at all"
After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Zheng Guifei asked with suspicion
"Is it true?"
In order to let Concubine Zheng dispel her doubts, Wei Zhongxian raised his right arm and swore with a very serious and serious expression
"The slave's heart is always towards the goddess. If there is a half-sentence, the sky will be struck by thunder and I will not die."
And Concubine Zheng sneered and said
"Hehe, good, good, this palace believes that you are sincere; the emperor wants to deal with those Donglin party thieves, so the reason for killing the Donglin party on the grounds that he wants to change Chang Xun as the prince is also true. Fair enough"
The next sentence of Concubine Zheng made Wei Zhongxian's back break out in a cold sweat
"If you dare to deceive Ben Gong, Ben Gong will tell the emperor the secret that you are a fake eunuch, and then you will fall to the ground"
After listening to Concubine Zheng's words, Wei Zhongxian's face immediately turned ashen, and he was so frightened that he was speechless for a while; when he adjusted his state, he asked blankly
"How did the maiden find out about the slave's life experience?"
So, Concubine Zheng explained
"Your wife, Ke Yinyue, is someone close to this palace. She naturally knows everything about you. You are not Wei Zhongxian, but Li Jinyi, Wei Zhongxian's twin brother, because the real Wei Zhongxian was killed by Wei Chao. In order to cover up the fact that he killed your brother Wei Zhongxian, Wei Chao tricked you into the palace and made you impersonate your brother"
After she finished speaking, Concubine Zheng looked at "Wei Zhongxian", who was still expressionless, with a smile on her face.
"Am I right, Li Jinyi?"
In desperation, "Wei Zhongxian" had to admit this fact
"My lady is right, I am indeed not Wei Zhongxian"
"It's good to admit it, you have a handle in my hand now, if I find out that you are unfaithful to this palace, this palace will publicize your secret. However, this palace will not tell you this secret for the time being, because this palace will use you to persuade the emperor to let the emperor make Chang Xun the crown prince. This secret of yours is rotten in the stomach"
"Got it, ma'am"
After leaving Changshou Palace, Wei Zhongxian returned to his dormitory alone. After seeing his wife, he did not reveal her background, but pretended to know nothing and lived as usual.
Two days later, Concubine Zheng secretly summoned Ke Yinyue again. At this time, after taking the Broken intestine powder given to her by Concubine Zheng Gui, her body became weaker day by day. Her antidote, but because the toxicity of Broken Heart Powder is too violent and the side effects are too great, it will cause great damage to her body more or less, and every time she takes the antidote from Zheng Guifei, Zheng The imperial concubine will always use Wei Zhongxian's movements and situation as an exchange condition for getting the antidote. If Ke Yinyue doesn't tell her the real information or intentionally conceal the truth for Wei Zhongxian, she will not be able to get the antidote, and she can only endure the broken heart powder silently. That excruciating torture. This is the real reason why Concubine Zheng will grasp that "Wei Zhongxian" is a fake eunuch. In order to get the antidote and get rid of the torment of the poison attack, Ke Yinyue can only bear the condemnation of her conscience and betray her most beloved man.
"Has Wei Zhongxian communicated with the emperor recently?"
Ke Yinyue arched her arms and replied
"If you go back to the mother, Wei Lang will be secretly summoned to the bedroom by the emperor every night, and he will not come back until late at night after chatting with the emperor"
"Did he tell you what the emperor was talking about?"
"Hui Niangniang, I asked Wei Lang once, and he said that the emperor had recently become obsessed with Go, so he always had to find someone to play Go every night before he could fall asleep. Wei Lang is proficient in chess and has superb skills. So the emperor doesn't like to find others, he likes to find him"
"I don't think it's that easy to play chess"
Zheng Guifei said coldly, with a suspicious attitude on her face
"I guess there must be something elusive between the two of them that makes one have to wonder"
After speaking, Concubine Zheng poured out an antidote from the porcelain bottle and put it in the palm of her hand, and then handed it to Ke Yinyue, saying
"You take this antidote first, and then sneak into the emperor's bedroom tonight to see what's going on?"
After taking the antidote, Ke Yinyue responded
"Yes, madam"
That night, Wei Zhongxian asked Emperor Wanli to see the palace again, while Ke Yinyue, following Concubine Zheng's instructions, put on a set of black clothes and veils and performed light work under the cover of the night, just like falling leaves She flew over the Wanli Emperor's palace without making any sound. After Wei Zhongxian entered the Wanli Emperor's palace, Ke Yinyue secretly lifted a tile, and through the gap after the tile was lifted, she Seeing that Emperor Wanli was sitting on the right side of a chessboard, Wei Zhongxian was sitting on the left side of the chessboard, and the two were chatting while playing chess.
"Zhongxian, do you feel wronged because you play chess with me every day for the past few days and you can't sleep well?"
"The servant doesn't feel wronged at all, as long as the emperor likes it, the servant is willing to accompany the emperor until dawn"
"Hahaha, you really are loyal to me"
When Wei Zhongxian dropped a sunspot, he reminded Emperor Wanli
"Your Majesty, it's your turn"
"Good"
As a result, Emperor Wanli dropped a white stone on the chessboard. After dropping this chess piece, Wei Zhongxian dropped a black piece to seal off the direction of Emperor Wanli's white son. At this time, Emperor Wanli couldn't help but admired
"Okay, Zhongxian, your chess skills are really good. I'm afraid no one in the palace can be as good at chess as you are"
"The emperor has won prizes. The minions' chess skills are far less than that of the emperor. Otherwise, you won't always be the emperor every time you win."
"Do you think I can't see that you let me?"
After listening to Emperor Wanli's words, Wei Zhongxian bowed his head shyly and said embarrassingly
"Let the emperor show it"
"Hahaha, how can you hide your sweet things from my eyes? Today you will follow me with your true abilities. If you win, I will reward you."
"The slave will be ugly today"
Next, the two of them showed off their skills on the chessboard; after seeing this, Ke Yinyue closed the tile and said silently
"It looks like they're really playing chess"
After he finished speaking, he jumped off the roof of the Wanli Emperor's palace like a black cat and disappeared into the dark night; after Ke Yinyue left, Wei Zhongxian pointed to the roof with his finger The tile that had just been closed said to Emperor Wanli
"Your Majesty, go away"
At this time, Emperor Wanli put down the chess piece in his hand and opened the secret room in the bedroom to tell Wei Zhongxian
"Let's go, if you have something to say"
After Emperor Wanli and Wei Zhongxian entered the secret room, the masters of disguise who were hiding behind the screen and dressed up as Emperor Wanli and Wei Zhongxian quickly sat on both sides of the chessboard pretending to play chess. At this time, Emperor Wanli and Wei Zhongxian had already come to a cell in the secret room; at this time, Emperor Wanli asked.
"Is there anything new about Concubine Zheng?"
"Back to the emperor, Concubine Zheng Guifei blamed the servant for not persuading the emperor to make Chang Xun the crown prince. It seems that she really doesn't know what happened between us"
After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Emperor Wanli said angrily
"It's unreasonable, this **** is still not giving up, still wishing to make Chang Xun the crown prince, I will never agree to her"
"Of course the emperor does not have to agree to her, not only is the emperor not agreeing, but the servants will never help her to make His Royal Highness Fu Wang the prince"
"This **** relied on my favor for her, and she wanted to make her child a prince, and then the mother would find a chance to get rid of me by virtue of the child, and wait for Chang Xun to become the new king before becoming the queen mother. I have already seen through her ambitions, so you have to find a way for me to force her to take action and let her reveal her ambitions"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the slave will find a way to force Concubine Zheng to take action"
At this time, Emperor Wanli suddenly wanted to know how Wei Zhongxian dealt with Concubine Zheng
"By the way, how did you answer that bitch?"
"In order to hold her back, the servant told her that it was the emperor who did not want to make His Royal Highness King Fu the crown prince, and the reason why the emperor said in the council hall that he wanted to make Zhu Changxun the crown prince was to find an excuse to deal with Donglin Party members, not from the emperor's original intention"
"And what did she say?"
When Wei Zhongxian heard Emperor Wanli's question, he suddenly fell to his knees inexplicably, and his actions really made Emperor Wanli jump
"Wei Zhongxian, what are you doing?"
Emperor Wanli looked at Wei Zhongxian kneeling on the ground with a look of surprise and doubt
"The slave is guilty, the slave is guilty!"
"What's wrong with you being loyal to me?"
"The slaves committed the crime of deceiving the king"
"The crime of deceiving the king?"
"Yes, Your Majesty"
Looking at Wei Zhongxian's sincere expression with a hint of guilt at the moment, Emperor Wanli wanted to know what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd, so he said while supporting Wei Zhongxian, who was kneeling on the ground
"Wei Aiqing, get up and talk"
After Wei Zhongxian stood up, Emperor Wanli asked
"Tell me what the **** is going on? Why do you suddenly say that you have committed the crime of deceiving the king?"
Wei Zhongxian adjusted his emotions and then summoned up his courage to slowly say to Emperor Wanli at the risk of being beheaded
"The slave, in fact, is a, a fake eunuch"
After hearing Wei Zhongxian's words, Emperor Wanli became even more surprised. He looked into Wei Zhongxian's eyes with surprise and thought he must have heard it wrong just now, so he asked again
"What did you say?"
At this time, Wei Zhongxian no longer wanted to let Concubine Zheng take hold of him in order to make him do things he didn't want to do, so he decided to reveal his true identity to the emperor
"I said I'm a fake eunuch, and I'm not Wei Zhongxian, because the real Wei Zhongxian died a few years ago, and I'm an impostor"
Next, he explained how he let the **** Wei Chao bring the **** Wei Chao into the palace in order to conceal the fact of killing his brother Wei Zhongxian, and how he planned to frame Wei Chao, continue to mingle in the palace as Wei Zhongxian and let Concubine Zheng Guifei The whole process of holding his handle was told to Emperor Wanli one by one; after listening to Wei Zhongxian's narration, Emperor Wanli not only did not cure his crime of bullying the king, but smiled and surprised with his fingers. Said by Wei Zhongxian
"It turns out that you are really a fake eunuch!"
"Yes, that's right, the sin of slavery deserves ten thousand death, please forgive the emperor"
"What are you guilty of, have I said you are guilty?"
After listening to Emperor Wanli's words, Wei Zhongxian looked into Emperor Wanli's eyes with surprise and asked tentatively
"Your Majesty, won't you punish slaves for deceiving?"
"You helped me take back the imperial power from the Donglin party members. I am grateful that you are too late. How can you still have the heart to cure your sins; but your legendary stories are very bizarre, and they can be faked. The **** has been in the palace for so many years without being noticed, and even I feel a little strange; it is not important to me whether you are an **** or not, the important thing is that you are loyal to me, and I will never be because of this. It's hard for you"
Emperor Wanli's words filled Wei Zhongxian's heart with gratitude at this moment. He couldn't help shedding tears of excitement from his eyes, and then knelt on the ground again and said to Emperor Wanli
"The servants thank the emperor for his forgiveness. The servants will do their best to be loyal to the emperor from now on, and go through fire and water. They will never give up and never give up."
"Get up first!"
Emperor Wanli once again helped Wei Zhongxian, who was kneeling on the ground, and said
"Since you are not a eunuch, then when you talk to me alone in the future, don't call yourself a slave anymore, you should call yourself a minister. But in order to stabilize your position and power as the **** party leader, you still You must assist me in the identity of Wei Zhongxian, and I will always conceal your true identity from the ministers"
After a period of time, Emperor Wanli and Wei Zhongxian left the secret room and returned to Emperor Wanli's bedroom. When they returned to the ground floor of the bedroom, they saw the two people who were in accordance with Wanli Emperor and Wei Zhongxian's He instructed the master of disguise who pretended to be the two of them to leave the seat where they were playing chess, and stood side by side on the right side of the Go table, bowing their heads and bowing to the two of them, Wanli Emperor and Wei Zhongxian
"See the Emperor, see Eunuch Wei"
At this time, Emperor Wanli said to them both
"You two did a good job, I will reward you well"
After speaking, Emperor Wanli took out two banknotes from the storeroom from his sleeve and handed them to one of the masters of disguise who pretended to be Emperor Wanli himself
"You take this to the warehouse to exchange money"
The faces of the two masters of disguise who saw the money immediately showed a greedy expression, and said with a smile
"Thank you, Your Majesty, and Eunuch Wei"
After speaking, they changed their clothes and left the palace of Emperor Wanli
At this time, Ke Yinyue had already returned to the Changshou Palace where Concubine Zheng lived, and reported everything he had just spied on the roof of Emperor Wanli's palace to Concubine Zheng in detail
"Niang Niang, Wei Lang is indeed playing chess with the emperor. He and the emperor did not talk about anything other than the exchange of chess skills"
"Is it true?"
"It's true, my lady"
However, Concubine Zheng's eyes still revealed a little distrust in her eyes
"I hope you didn't lie to me"
After she finished speaking, she waved her hand and called a middle-aged man in black from outside a door at the screen in the palace. This middle-aged man was named Zhang Chai and was under the command of Concubine Zheng Gui. A martial arts expert, who used to be a Jin Yiwei under Hai Ning, because of his outstanding feats, Concubine Zheng kept him by her side to serve as her eyes and ears. When Zhang Chai came to Concubine Zheng, Concubine Zheng asked him
"Zhang Chai, is what she said true?"
Zhang Cha arched his arms and replied to Concubine Zheng
"Hui Niangniang, what Ke Yinyue said is true. Wei Zhongxian did play chess with the emperor in the bedroom just now and exchanged chess skills. He didn't talk about other things"
After listening to Zhang Chai's answer, Concubine Zheng said to Ke Yinyue
"You are really loyal to Ben Gong, and you did not disappoint Ben Gong"
After listening to Concubine Zheng's words, Ke Yinyue felt a cool breeze blowing into her heart, which made her feel disheartened,
"Why does the lady still refuse to believe my loyalty, and she has to send someone to monitor my every move. Since the lady doesn't want to believe me, the lady just poisons me to death"
After listening to Ke Yinyue's words, Concubine Zheng said to her apologetically
"I'm sorry Yinyue, I really did wrongly blame you, I believe in your loyalty now, and I will never doubt you in the future"
After speaking, Wei Zhongxian's figure appeared in her mind again, which made her feel a burst of anger
"The odious Wei Zhongxian didn't listen to Ben Gong's words, and went to persuade the emperor to make Chang Xun the crown prince, and only care about playing chess with the emperor. This palace will definitely make you look good”
The next morning, Wei Zhongxian came to Changshou Palace alone and met with Concubine Zheng in secret; at this time, he was arching his arms to greet Concubine Zheng
"The servant greets the empress"
Concubine Zheng Guifei stared at Wei Zhongxian, who was standing beside her on the right, and said with disdain
"You also know that I would like to greet Ben Gong. I am afraid that Ben Gong's kindness to you has already been forgotten by you. If you did not have this palace's support, you would still have the opportunity to gain the emperor's trust, and then you will be able to control it. Does the government cover the sky with one hand?"
After listening to Zheng Guifei's words, Wei Zhongxian said
"What the **** are you talking about? Of course the slaves did not forget the kindness of the goddess. If it weren't for the support of the goddess, the slaves would never be today"
"Then, since you know Ben Gong's kindness, why don't you listen to Ben Gong's words, persuade the emperor to change Chang Xun as the crown prince, and only focus on playing chess with the emperor all day long, instead of talking about business affairs? After the palace gets a little benefit, will it cross the river and demolish the bridge?"
"It's not that the servants refuse to help the empress to persuade the emperor, but the emperor has already decided to make Zhu Changluo the crown prince. No matter how much the servants persuade, it's useless"
"Can't you think of a solution for this palace?"
"It's not that the servants don't think of a way for the mother, it's just because the servants are inconvenient to intervene in the emperor's own affairs. If the servants intervene, wouldn't the ministers say that I am plotting to usurp the throne and intending to rebel. Such a sinful crime is a servant. I can't bear"
After hearing what Wei Zhongxian said, Concubine Zheng immediately turned around and pointed at Wei Zhongxian's nose and yelled loudly
"Damn, you actually..."
However, when she talked about this half, she couldn't speak anymore, and the next paragraph Wei Zhongxian said next made Zheng Guifei's nose crooked
"Niangniang, you don't need to be angry, the servant is looking for you today to cut off the cooperative relationship with you. The servant has already helped you kill those Donglin party members and returned the control of the court to the emperor. The servant is now gone. As for the matter of making His Royal Highness the Prince of Fortune the crown prince, the servants have no way to help the goddess, so the goddess should find someone else."
And Zheng Guifei is not a fuel-efficient lamp, after all, she still holds the handle that Wei Zhongxian is not a real eunuch, but unfortunately she is too naive
"Don't think I don't know, the emperor loves to listen to you. As long as you persuade the emperor a few words in front of the emperor, the emperor will agree to establish Chang Xun as the prince. But you have no intention of helping this palace to persuade the emperor, but you can Don't forget, you have the handle in my hands. As long as I disclose that you are a fake **** in front of the emperor, the emperor will definitely ask you to move your head. If you are smart, just follow what this palace says, and persuade the emperor to make Chang Xun the prince. Otherwise, don't blame Ben Gong for turning his face"
At this time, Wei Zhongxian boldly admitted his identity as a fake **** after risking his death in front of Emperor Wanli yesterday. Relying on Emperor Wanli's understanding and forgiveness, he was even more unafraid to threaten Concubine Zheng. He looked up to the sky and said with a loud laugh /
"Hahaha, the noble concubine's tricks can't threaten the slaves, no matter if I am a real **** or a fake eunuch, as long as I can gain the emperor's trust, the emperor will definitely not kill the slaves because of this"
After he finished speaking, he smiled gloomily, arched his arms indifferently and continued to say
"The Minions Say Goodbye"
After he finished speaking, he turned around, walked out of the hall of the Longevity Palace without looking back, and walked away. Seeing Wei Zhongxian's arrogance and domineering arrogance, Concubine Zheng really wanted to slash him with a thousand swords; however, it was precisely because of this hatred in her heart that Concubine Zheng wanted to get rid of Wei Zhongxian at this moment. idea.
After Wei Zhongxian left Changshou Palace, Concubine Zheng Guifei secretly summoned Ke Yinyue to Changshou Palace and said to her
"Kekyinyue, this time I want you to help me with something"
"Excuse me, madam, what's the matter?"
After listening to Ke Yinyue's question, Concubine Zheng deliberately slowly popped out a few words from her mouth
"Kill Wei Zhongxian for Ben Gong"
And the words she said made Ke Yinyue stunned and stunned when she heard it
"Miss, what did you say?"
In order to confirm that what she just heard was correct, Ke Yinyue asked Concubine Zheng again; Concubine Zheng repeated with a cold expression
"Ben Gong wants you to kill Wei Zhongxian for me"
Hearing what Concubine Zheng said, Ke Yinyue was even more unwilling to accept this reality. She shook her head like a conditioned reflex and said emotionally to Concubine Zheng
"No, it's impossible, I won't kill Wei Lang"
But Concubine Zheng's attitude is still so determined
"If I want you to kill you, kill you. Ben Gong married you to Wei Zhongxian to act as an undercover agent by his side, not to make you and her a loving couple. You are just one of Ben Gong's side. Pieces of chess pieces are not eligible for conjugal love"
After speaking, Concubine Zheng took out a medicine bottle from her arms, put it in the palm of her hand and said to Ke Yinyue
"If you help Ben Gong get rid of Wei Zhongxian, Ben Gong will give you this. This bottle contains all the antidote for Broken Heart Powder. After you get this bottle of antidote, you will no longer have to be controlled. In Ben Gong, Ben Gong will never embarrass you in the future; but if you are unwilling to help Ben Gong get rid of Wei Zhongxian"
Speaking of this, Concubine Zheng took back the bottle full of antidote, and continued with a smirk
"Then this palace will destroy this bottle of antidote and make your life better than death. You only have seven days left. If you can't take the antidote after seven days, the toxicity of Broken Heart Powder will occur. As soon as the medicinal properties of the drug attack, you will bleed from the seven orifices, and your liver and intestines will die.”
After a while, in the Longevity Palace, there was a sharp laughter that was almost crazy and perverted
After leaving the Longevity Palace, Ke Yinyue lowered her head and returned to her residence with a blank face; when she opened the door and returned to her residence, she suddenly smelled the aroma of food; so she followed the food The smell drifting over to take a closer look, it turned out that Wei Zhongxian prepared a table of sumptuous food for him; at this time Wei Zhongxian was saying to her with a smile
"Yinyue, you're back, take a look at this table, I asked the chef of the imperial kitchen to cook it for you, including your favorite braised carp, spiced beef, and sour fish lips, you are now Hungry; come, come and sit down here"
After speaking, Wei Zhongxian moved a stool to the side of the table and motioned Ke Yinyue to sit down. When Ke Yinyue sat down, Wei Zhongxian took a chopstick and put it in Ke Yinyue's bowl and said
"Yinyue, you have to eat this meal well. You have had a hard time taking care of your grandson at the East Palace. You should eat well to have strength"
At this time, Ke Yinyue said to Wei Zhongxian
"Xiang Gong, sit down and eat together"
Wei Zhongxian waved his hands quickly and said
"No, I just ate it, I'm not hungry, these dishes are specially prepared for you, eat it while it's hot"
Wei Zhongxian's words made Ke Yinyue feel a burst of warmth in her heart. She held back the tears that were about to flow from her eyes, and ate this delicious and loving meal in front of her. No matter what, she couldn't bear to kill Get rid of the man in front of her that she loves so much.
In the middle of the night, when the two were lying on the bed, Ke Yinyue couldn't sleep, while Wei Zhongxian, who was beside her, slept very hard and snored; He was holding a dagger and was about to assassinate Wei Zhongxian, thinking silently in his heart
"Duanchangsan's poison cannot be tolerated by ordinary people. I can't give up my chance to live because of her. Wei Lang, I'm sorry"
However, when she was about to stab the dagger into Wei Zhongxian's chest, she heard another voice
"No, absolutely no, Wei Lang has a lot of love for you, I can't be so ruthless"
So, Ke Yinyue took the dagger back again; however, she let her determination be bound again
"No matter what kind of affection he has, he has been stabbed for a hundred times. If I don't kill him, then the person who will die will be me. Just give him a little pleasure. Then I go to the concubine to ask for the antidote, and finally I myself Going away alone"
So, she once again raised the dagger to stab, but her conscience protested her ruthlessness again
"Ke Yinyue, you are a beast. You are ungrateful and murdered your husband in order to survive. You are not worthy of your conscience. Do you still have any humanity?"
When she thought of this, she put the dagger back again, but when she thought of the terrible toxicity of Broken Heart Powder, she had to think about assassination again
"It's the most important thing to save your own life, no matter how human beings are"
So, she aimed the dagger at Wei Zhongxian's chest again, but this time she heard another voice
"Ke Yinyue, if you kill him, even if you live, you won't feel at ease for the rest of your life. Wei Lang loves you so much, you can't be so heartless"
In desperation, she put the dagger back again; it went on and on, and she struggled again and again in her heart, so she had to temporarily put down the idea of assassination.
On the next morning, Ke Yinyue woke up and found that Wei Zhongxian was not lying beside her, so she walked off the bed and looked around in the bedroom; after a while, she saw Wei Zhongxian carrying a three-tiered meal The wooden box walked into the bedroom and said to Ke Yinyue with a smile
"You're awake!"
At this time, Ke Yinyue looked into Wei Zhongxian's eyes and asked
"Where have you been?"
Wei Zhongxian replied
"I went to the imperial pantry to get a breakfast. You wash up for a while. After washing up, we will have breakfast together. After breakfast, I will take you to play outside the palace and buy something at the market"
After the two had breakfast, Wei Zhongxian left the palace with Ke Yinyue and Ke Yinyue in the prepared carriage with the exit token given by Emperor Wanli; At a market, Wei Zhongxian and Ke Yinyue got off the carriage, and after instructing the coachman to wait at a certain stop, accompanied by several guards, the two walked towards the more lively direction of the market. .
When the two of them were walking at a stall with a face-shower, Ke Yinyue, who was very curious, couldn't help but stepped forward to take a look, then picked up a stick of Guan Gong's face and looked at it carefully. , I felt a burst of happiness in my heart, and a faint smile soon appeared on my face. After seeing the situation, the hawker quickly smiled and said to Ke Yinyue very politely
"Girl, buy one if you like it"
At this time, Wei Zhongxian walked to Ke Yinyue's side and took out a certain amount of money and put it in the hawker's hand and said
"This girl will let her take whatever kind of face person she likes, so there's no need to look for the extra money"
After receiving the money, the hawker said to Wei Zhongxian with great gratitude
"Thank you for this uncle, if you like it, you can just look at it and pick it up. If you have so many silver taels, you can even buy my stall"
At this time, Wei Zhongxian looked at Ke Yinyue in front of him with love and said to her
"Yinyue, you can take as much of these noodles as you want, and then let the boss pack it"
Ke Yinyue looked into Wei Zhongxian's eyes gratefully and said
"Good"
Therefore, Ke Yinyue carefully selected five kinds of her favorite small noodle people, and let the small vendor and Wei Zhongxian continue to walk on the streets of the market with a happy mood after packing; When the two of them passed by a fabric shop, Ke Yinyue took a fancy to a few pieces of fabric that she saw on the street, while Wei Zhongxian generously bought all the fabrics she saw.
In this way, the two passed by many shops on the street. As long as it was anything Keyinyue liked, Wei Zhongxian would buy it for her without hesitation; At that time, Ke Yinyue had already given up the idea of wanting to assassinate Wei Zhongxian, and she had completely abandoned the huge temptation to get the antidote for heartbreak. She would rather sacrifice herself than hurt the one she loved in her heart. man. After visiting the market, Wei Zhongxian and Ke Yinyue ordered a few tables of good wine and food in a restaurant. When the food was all ready and the wine was on the table, the two began to eat. In the middle of the meal, Wei Zhongxian suddenly thought that he had something he didn't buy, so he greeted Ke Yinyue
"Yinyue, wait for me, I forgot to buy something"
"Okay, Xianggong, you go, be careful on the road"
"Don't worry, I'll be back when I go"
After speaking, Wei Zhongxian hurried down the stairs by himself. After about half an hour, Wei Zhongxian finally returned to the restaurant. Out of breath, he took out a red box from his sleeve and put it on the dining table. After his breathing became steady, he said to Ke Yinyue
"Yinyue, do you know what day is today?"
Ke Yinyue scratched her head and asked with great doubt
"What day is it today?"
After listening to Ke Yinyue's question, Wei Zhongxian replied with a smile
"Today is your birthday, didn't you say that the seventeenth of every month is your birthday on the day we got married?"
After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Ke Yinyue suddenly realized the truth
"Ah, if you don't tell me I forgot, it turns out today is seventeen"
"Yes, I just ran downstairs and bought this for you because I suddenly thought that today is your birthday"
After speaking, Wei Zhongxian pushed the red box in front of Ke Yinyue and said to her affectionately
"Happy birthday, Yinyue, open this box and see what's inside?"
So, Ke Yinyue opened the box in front of her. When she opened the box, it turned out that it contained a string of black pearls; this made Ke Yinyue feel a surprise in her heart
"What a beautiful pearl"
Keyinyue said this with great pleasure
"Do you like it?"
"Of course I like it, thank you for giving me such a good gift"
"Take it if you like it"
"Good"
So, Ke Yinyue brought this string of pearls; when Ke Yinyue brought this string of pearls, her beautiful appearance and her charming temperament were greatly enhanced by the combination of this string of pearls, making her She looks more like a daughter from a wealthy family. At this time, Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but praised
"Bring this string of black pearls, you are really like a fairy in the heavens, as the saying goes, a sword is given to a hero, pearls match a beauty, and this string of beautiful pearls should match my beautiful lady"
After hearing Wei Zhongxian's compliment, Ke Yinyue felt elated, she was very moved and said happily
"Really? I haven't been complimented like this for a long time, thank you husband"
"Since we are husband and wife, we will love each other forever, so don't say those kind words"
When Ke Yinyue heard the words "to grow old", a sad expression appeared on his face.
In the evening, Wei Zhongxian and his wife, who had been shopping at the market for a day, returned to the palace accompanied by guards. After returning to the palace, due to being tired all day, the two quickly lay on the bed and prepared to fall asleep. Before going to bed, Ke Yinyue secretly took a packet of poison and did not let Wei Zhongxian find out. When the two were about to fall asleep, Wei Zhongxian yawned and said to Ke Yinyue
"Yinyue, you should rest early, you should be tired after a day's shopping in the market today, rest early and refresh your spirits so that you can take care of the emperor's grandson tomorrow"
After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Ke Yinyue held back the sadness and grief in her heart and said
"Wei Lang, can I hold you?"
"Why?"
"Because I'm afraid I'll never have the chance to hold you like this again"
"Silly girl, how could it be? We want to be a good couple for life. If you are tired today, you can rest, and it will not be too late to hug tomorrow"
But Ke Yinyue held back the tears she wanted to shed and said this
"Wei Lang, just let me hug you"
"Alright then"
After Wei Zhongxian finished speaking, he stretched his left hand under Ke Yinyue's head and embraced Ke Yinyue in his arms, while Ke Yinyue leaned on Wei Zhongxian's shoulder and gently hugged him with his right hand, silently feeling the Wei Zhongxian's body temperature also felt the happiness and warmth of the conjugal love between the family. In the process of lying in Wei Zhongxian's arms, the poison in Ke Yinyue's body had begun to erode her whole body and slowly devoured her soul. Wei Zhongxian said
"Wei Lang, I, the guest Yinyue, being able to marry you in this life is a blessing from my previous life, but unfortunately my life is too hard to be a husband and wife with you for the rest of my life. We have to continue the relationship in the next life."
The words of Ke Yinyue made Wei Zhongxian immediately alert, and he asked in surprise and doubt
"Yinyue, what are you talking about"
But Ke Yinyue didn't answer him, so he slammed his head to the left and saw that Ke Yinyue was closing his eyes at this time, a mouthful of red blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth, and the skin on his face had already turned pale; He stood up abruptly, and already understood what was going on in his heart, so he shook Ke Yinyue's body forcefully and shouted in pain and anxiety in his heart
"Yinyue, why are you so stupid, if there is something you can't think of, just tell me, why do you take poison and commit suicide because you can't think of it?"
After a period of time, Ke Yinyue finally woke up, she found that her body had miraculously returned to normal, and the toxicity of Broken Heart Powder had completely disappeared; while she herself was lying in a secret room, Wei Zhongxian He Wanli Emperor was standing beside Ke Yinyue's bed at this time. Besides the two of them, there was an old man wearing a blue long gown, brown hairpin and white beard.
"Where am I?"
When Ke Yinyue woke up and saw this strange environment in front of her, she asked in a conditioned reflex
"You are in the secret room under my bedroom"
Emperor Wanli replied, and after answering, Emperor Wanli asked again
"Young lady, there is something you can't think about, why do you want to kill yourself by taking poison? If you have something that you can't think of, just tell me, and Wei Aiqing and I can decide for you"
At this time, Wei Zhongxian said
"Yinyue, why are you so stupid, not only taking the poison of Duanchangsan, but also taking arsenic, if I hadn't used the detoxification formula in "System Cheats" in time to get rid of the poison for you for three days and three nights , you have already died in Huangquan, our husband and wife are so affectionate, why do you want to kill yourself, what are you doing this for, do you know that if you die, then I, Wei Zhongxian, will never be secretly born in the world, Do you have the heart to let me die with you?"
After Wei Zhongxian finished speaking, two lines of crystal tears immediately flowed out of his face; while Ke Yinyue said to Wei Zhongxian apologetically
"I'm sorry"
After she finished speaking, she suddenly thought of the book "The Secret Book of Drug Production" that Wei Zhongxian had just mentioned, so she asked
"What is "Drug Production Cheats""
The old Chinese doctor standing beside Wei Zhongxian answered the question for Wei Zhongxian
“The Secret Book of Drug Making” is a work written by Ouyang Feng, the owner of the White Camel Villa in the Western Regions, an ancestor of the Southern Song Dynasty, with his lifelong efforts. It not only records more than two hundred kinds of drug making methods, but also records the The method of detoxification of more than 200 kinds of poisons. Ouyang Feng was called Western poison in the Southern Song Dynasty. He was not only excellent in the method of making poison, but also in martial arts. Southern Emperor Duan Zhixing, Northern Beggar Hong Qigong, and Zhong Shentong Wang Chongyang are also known as the Five Judes. When he fought with Beibei Hong Qigong on the top of Huashan Mountain until the oil ran out, he and Hong Qigong both died in Huashan at the same time. , and later let his adopted son Yang Guo be buried in a cave on Mount Huashan on his behalf. And the "Method of Making Drugs" written by him was also buried with him, which has been lost for more than 300 years; but fortunately, , Mr. Wei accidentally discovered Ouyang Feng's tomb in a cave while visiting Huashan, and only in the tomb did he find the long-lost "The Secret Book of Drug Making" and the poison of broken heart powder in the girl's body. It is a kind of folk spread, let Master Wei find the way to detoxify in this "Drug-Manufacturing Secret Book", so that you are lucky enough to live, girl."
And what he said next made Ke Yinyue at this time hear the iceberg that has no nostalgia for life in her heart like it was melted by lava, and let her renew the desire to live on the gas
"Guess, Master Wei is so kind to you, I can't help but feel a little moved in my heart. You can marry him. It's a blessing that you have cultivated in several lifetimes. In the detoxification secret of Broken Heart Powder, there is a kind of dragon called dragon. A special plant of hornwort, but this plant can only be found in Wan Yaoguo, so it is very precious. Master Wei just ran all over the capital in order to find out about this plant in the past two days, and finally learned that the old man has collected it. This kind of plant; at the beginning, Mr. Wei brought his subordinates with a lot of money to buy this dragon's horn grass from the old man, but this dragon's horn grass is the old man's heirloom, and the ancestors stipulated that it could not be sold Go, but in order to save your life, Master Wei knelt down in front of the old man, and let the old man be moved by Master Wei's love for you, so he made an exception to donate the dragon's horn grass"
When the old Chinese doctor finished saying this, Ke Yinyue felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. She fell into Wei Zhongxian's arms and burst into tears, while Wei Zhongxian gently patted Ke Yinyue's back comforted
"Don't cry, don't cry, as long as you don't do stupid things in the future"
After comforting, Wei Zhongxian put on Ke Yinyue's shoulders and looked into Ke Yinyue's eyes and asked
"Yinyue, tell me quickly, what's going on? Why do you want to see yourself short?"
After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Ke Yinyue immediately wiped away the tears on her face, and explained how she was poisoned by the broken heart powder given to her by Concubine Zheng Gui, forcing her to act as an undercover agent beside Wei Zhongxian to monitor Wei Zhongxian's every move. He also used the antidote of Broken Heart Powder as a bait to force her to assassinate Wei Zhongxian in detail. After listening to Ke Yinyue's narration, Wei Zhongxian couldn't help being taken aback. He never imagined that Concubine Zheng would attack him; he sighed deeply and said to Ke Yinyue
"Yinyue, you are so stupid, since you are unwilling to kill me, you don't have to take your own life to send business to Concubine Zheng"
Speaking of this, Wei Zhongxian's mind suddenly flashed in the mind of the assassin who was in the emperor's bedroom last time to monitor him and the emperor playing chess, so he suddenly realized to Ke Yinyue and said
"It turns out that the assassin who climbed up the emperor's palace that day and peeked at me and the emperor playing chess turned out to be you"
After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Ke Yinyue said in surprise
"So you already know"
Wei Zhongxian said in disapproval
"Yes, that's right, I knew for a long time that Concubine Zheng would send someone to monitor me, but I didn't expect this person to be you,"
At this time, Emperor Wanli said to Wei Zhongxian
"It seems that this wicked woman has already started to attack you Wei Aiqing, you should be more careful in the future"
After speaking, Emperor Wanli said to Ke Yinyue
"Girl guest, you are now on our side. Don't be afraid of Concubine Zheng, I and Wei Aiqing will decide for you"
Wei Zhongxian followed the words of Emperor Wanli and said to Ke Yinyue
"Yes, Yinyue, we husband and wife will live and die together in the future, and we will follow each other. As long as I am here, no one can hurt you"
After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Ke Yinyue said nothing. She fell into Wei Zhongxian's arms again and enjoyed the love and warmth that Wei Zhongxian gave her to her husband and wife. At this time, Emperor Wanli said again
"Wei Aiqing, how are you going to deal with her in the future, she has already attacked you, you have to find a way to force her to show her true colors"
And Wei Zhongxian is very sure about this matter
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Concubine Zheng just wants her son to be the crown prince. Wei Chen already has a way to make Concubine Zheng show his true form"
"What's the solution?"
Wei Zhongxian smiled and said to Emperor Wanli
"Is it right?"
On the other hand, Emperor Wanli didn't know the meaning of Wei Zhongxian's words like a monk who was confused, so he looked into Wei Zhongxian's eyes with a puzzled expression and repeated his words
"Is it right?"
"That's right, as long as Concubine Zheng falls for my trick, she will definitely reveal her true form"
