Chapter Nineteen Queen's Revenge
When Zhang Xi walked backwards out of the emperor's palace in Wangyi Palace, he happened to bump into a soft and fragrant body. This was not a good thing in the palace.
Sure enough, Zhang Xi looked back and was almost frightened to death. He turned his head and bowed: "Empress, Empress, the slave deserves to die, the slave deserves to die!"
The queen in costume.
Her hair was covered with gold and jade hairpins, her hair was tied up in a high bun, and her long black skirt touched the floor. There were three to five eunuchs and dozens of maids accompanying her. She looked sad and angry, her steps were staggering, and her voice was trembling.
"Zhang Xi, is your Majesty here?"
Zhang Xi lay on the ground, trembling: "Ah, your Majesty is taking a nap in the afternoon--"
"That's just right, Zhang Xi, I'm here to see you. Come to the palace with me." After the queen said that, she turned around and left, with a pair of charming eyes filled with evil spirits.
Zhang Xi was so frightened that he couldn't stand up. He was sweating all over his body and his scalp was tight and numb. It's over. Who must have leaked the news? The queen knew that I was the one who betrayed Liang Gang. It's over. My fate is finally settled!
"Yes, Queen!"
Zhang Xi gritted his teeth and stood up from the ground, stepped on cotton balls, and followed a group of eunuchs and maids in a daze. His mind went blank, and he only felt that his death was imminent.
After entering the Queen's 'Sishui Palace', the Queen sat majestically in front of the red bird screen, patting the table with bare hands: "Zhang Xi——"
Zhang Xi immediately fell to his knees and said, "My dear, please forgive me, this matter has nothing to do with the servant. The servant did not speak ill of my uncle in front of the emperor. It is all the fault of that Chu woman——"
The queen was horrified and moved: "Zhang Xi, when did I say that you were related to this matter? I ask you, who is that Chu woman, and why did she want to kill Liang Gang!" In order to save his life, Zhang Xi did not talk nonsense: "
Queen Qi, that woman is the concubine of the traitor Xiang Yu. She is charming and charming, with an outstanding charm. There is a seductive temperament between her eyebrows. Your Majesty - Your Majesty was fascinated by her, and then you believed the slanderous words and killed her.
It’s uncle Guo’s—”
"How can this be unreasonable?" Queen Liang Yu slapped the table and stood up, frowning: "Where is that woman now? Is she in the palace? You go and catch her with me, I want to ask her."
"What did the Queen say? She said that she is not in the palace. Even if she is really under our eyes, I don't dare to touch her. Your Majesty's beloved thing, I'd better not touch it. I said it from the bottom of my heart. Your Majesty doesn't want to-"
-" Zhang Xi regretted it again. He was afraid that the queen would hurt Yu Ji, and he would die even more miserably!
"No, my brother died innocently and tragically. How can I just sit idly by and ignore it? No matter what, I will make it clear to that foxy girl today. Either she dies or I die!"
Zhang Xi thought to himself, Liang Gang is not innocent, your sister is too protective of one's shortcomings. Moreover, if there is really a quarrel, you will die in shame. He knows the emperor who likes the new and hates the old all too well.
The queen doesn't think so. In any case, she is His Majesty's wife and is different from other concubines. It is not easy to deal with a lowly maid from Chu State.
"Zhang Xi, do you want to live or die?" the queen said with a sneer.
"I want to live, I want to live, I want to live!" There is no doubt about it.
"Well, go and catch Hu Meizi for me. I will reward you greatly. If you don't go, I will have many ways to kill you!" The Queen gritted her teeth.
Zhang Xi almost cried: "Yes, yes, my dear, I will do it now!" He said in his heart, you have ways to kill me, the emperor also has many ways, what should I do?
Zhang Xi came out of the Surabaya Palace like a crying father. When he was unlucky, he stepped on someone else's toes while walking with his head down in the corridor. Just looking at the gold shoes, he knew that they were not ordinary servants. When he looked up, he saw another one.
Leng sweat: "Prime Minister, slave - I didn't mean it on purpose!" Young Master Ying waved his hand and asked anxiously: "Where is your Majesty?"
Zhang Xi said: "On lunch break!"
Young Master Ying thought for a while and said, "I'm going to see His Majesty!" He ignored Zhang Xi and walked away, swinging his sleeves. Zhang Xi saw a thick roll of bamboo slips in his hand.
Zhang Xi thought to himself, he won’t let me report it either.
He was not in the mood to care about this matter now, and walked straight out of the palace. As he walked, he was thinking about how to settle this matter without offending both parties.
There are so many good things in the world, and what he is facing now is either to fall to the emperor or to the queen. But Zhang Xi also thought that the emperor may not value that woman so much. Maybe after she died, His Majesty would forget about it. But the queen was extremely offended.
No wonder. After thinking it over, I still felt that it would be more appropriate to bring Yu Ji.
Young Master Ying broke into Wang Zhu's dormitory door without being informed: "Your Majesty, the military situation is urgent. It's extremely urgent -" Wang Zhu didn't sleep, and was practicing writing alone in the room. After being here for so long, he didn't know a single big character.
, I don’t even know if someone cheated me that day.
"Come in." Wang Zhu put down his brush and shouted outside the door.
"Your Majesty, something serious has happened. Touman Chanyu's son, Mao Dun, sent his troops out of Yinshan. Yang Duan and his men underestimated the enemy and rushed in. They were ambushed and returned seriously wounded. Mao Dun's troops were approaching Yanmen. The situation is extremely critical." Young Master Ying was very anxious.
Sweating profusely.
One wave comes after another.
Wang Zhu knew about Mao Dun, and it was in the hands of this man that the Xiongnu Khanate emerged. He was an extremely powerful and sinister character. It was understandable that Yang Duanhe was no match for him.
Seeing that he was not in a hurry, Gongzi Ying immediately said: "Yanmen Pass is in danger. If it is attacked by the Xiongnu, Jiuyuan Yunzhong and even the entire Hetao area north of the Yellow River will no longer be owned by the country."
Wang Zhu muttered: "String control warrior, string control warrior——"
Young Master Ying asked curiously: "Idle time, how can I have free time now? In such troubled times, how can I have free time?"
Wang Zhu knew that he didn't understand, so he muttered: "Send a horse to notify Yang Duanhe and ask him to stay on guard and not fight. He will hold on for at least three days. Reinforcements will arrive soon."
Young Master Ying said: "Who can I appoint as my general?"
Wang Zhu said: "Meng Duo! Let him seize the title of Meng Tian and command the troops in Yuzhong! I will go with him to conquer in person!"
Young Master Ying said: "What should we do if the Central Plains rebels?" Wang Zhu had already thought about it: "The battle report said that Tian Rong captured Pengcheng, but was defeated by Xiang Yu. He fled back to Linzi in embarrassment. Xiang Yu marched eastward and vowed to take revenge.
King Bao of Wei surrendered to Lu Pheasant, and Han Xin attacked Zhao with an orthodox army. Xiang Yu appointed Yingbu as the king of Jiujiang to guard six cities and guard against Wei Bao. This was a way to bring disaster. There has always been a saying in the Chu army, "Xiang Yu is first and Yingbu is second."
'The theory is that Xiang Yu made the king Yingbu, and Yingbu would inevitably rebel after a long time. So it is said——"
Young Master Ying said: "Your Majesty, what you want is that we sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. We can watch the wind and clouds surging outside the pass, and watch the princes annex each other and kill each other. When they are tired, the imperial court will send troops to defeat them one by one, and great things can be done."
Wang Zhu said, "So the most important thing right now is to stabilize the border fortress. For a while, no one will dare to come to Hangu Pass again for the bandits from the Central Plains."
Young Master Ying nodded repeatedly: "I understand, I will order the troops right now - do you want to set out tomorrow?"
Wang Zhu said: "Start tomorrow!"
"Pa!" Just when Wang Zhu and Gong Ziying were talking about military planes, the queen's bare hands clapped on the case again: "Bastard, do you recognize me?"
Yu Ji was brought into the palace by Zhang Xi in confusion. She recognized the queen there, but she guessed it from Liang Yu's demeanor and dress: "Could it be that you are the queen?" "You humble servant, you still have some knowledge. I ask
You, why did you slander me and kill my own brother?"
Yu Ji suddenly realized: "The little girl did not slander. Liang Gang's death was caused by his corruption and perversion of the law!"
The queen looked at Yu Ji and felt very uncomfortable, not only because of Liang Gang's relationship, but also because of Yu Ji's appearance.
This woman is so beautiful that even I, a woman, am attracted by it, let alone Your Majesty. If I don’t get rid of her today, she will become a serious problem in the future. The Queen thought to herself, even if there is no problem with Liang Gang, I will never let it go.
Get over this foxy guy.
"Bold, it is clear that you used your seductive skills to confuse His Majesty, framed Zhongliang, and conspired to hollow out our Daqin talents so that the Chu army could march straight in. You still dare to quibble. I am the head of the Sixth Palace and am in charge of the punishment of the inner court. I have always known that you have
You are so charming and evil, I must not spare you today, Zhang Xi, take me out and kill you!"
Zhang Xi was so frightened that he almost became incontinent: "Queen, you can't, Your Majesty——"
When the queen saw that Zhang Xi was disobedient, she ordered the two eunuchs beside him: "Quick, drag him down."
Zhang Xi saw that he couldn't stop him and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, you should be a slave, pull it out, pull it out." Two warriors came in from outside the palace, pulling Yu Ji's delicate and fragile body, and walked out. Yu Ji glared at the queen, and continued
Not even a single shout was made.
When he got outside the door, he happened to bump into Young Master Ying again. Zhang Xi almost jumped up: "Prime Minister, help me, Prime Minister, help me -"
Young Master Ying took a look and saw what was wrong with Zhang Xi today. He was so rash and careless. "What are you shouting about? How dignified is it!"
"Prime Minister, there are a lot of inappropriate things happening today! The Queen wants to kill Yu Ji, please save her quickly!"
Young Master Ying was stunned. He couldn't save her. The queen hated him to the core. How could you ask him to save her? But Young Master Ying and Yu Ji were at loggerheads. Yu Ji was dead, and it wasn't his turn yet.
Young Master Ying drooped his eyelids: "You go and call the emperor, I will delay here for a while."
Zhang Xi said: "Then Mr. Lao will be here!" He trotted straight to Wangyi Palace.
After hearing what Zhang Xi said, Wang Zhu's eyes widened: "What did you say?"
Without waiting for Zhang Xi to repeat himself, he quickly rushed out of the palace gate.
Wang Zhu had to run, and it took about three sticks of incense to reach the Surabaya Palace. In this time, it was enough to cut off fifty heads. Wang Zhu was worried while running. Yu Ji, don't let anything happen to you, my idol! "Queen
Madam, we have no choice but to execute Liang Gang. You have to blame me, and I have nothing to say. However, this matter has nothing to do with Miss Yu Ji——" As soon as Wang Zhu stepped into the door, he heard Young Master Ying negotiating.
"Young Master Ying——" the Queen said: "Your Majesty is bewitched by the temptress, are you also smitten? This woman is a spy of the Chu State, and I must kill her today. This is a matter for the harem and has nothing to do with you.
Get out of here!"
When Wang Zhu saw Yu Ji being pressed and standing at the door, he felt relieved and raised his voice: "Who is the temptress and who is bewitched? Queen, are you talking about me?"
"Your Majesty!" The queen's face turned pale.
The pink oval face was alternately blue and white, and the two plump, fiery red lips moved slightly, and said absently and aggrievedly: "Your Majesty—concubine—"
Wang Zhu waved his hands and said with a smile: "Queen, Queen, I know what happened to you. If you want to blame you, just blame me. Your brother is really shameful. He has committed corruption, bribery, and forced buying and selling. There is nothing I can do about it.
Mr. Xiangguo has absolutely nothing to do with Miss Yu Ji, so don’t blame the wrong person!"
The Queen had already relaxed a lot, but when she heard what Wang Zhu said, her eyes immediately turned bright and pointed: "Your Majesty, this enchantress from the Chu State knows sorcery and specializes in bewitching men."
Wang Zhu said: "It's okay, she is not a temptress. Besides, she is Xiang Yu's wife. I still need to rely on her to recruit Xiang Yu to surrender. The queen must not use her personal expenses for the public, or make a small gain for a small gain."
The queen's face turned gloomy: "What your Majesty said is wrong. Xiang Yu rebelled in the Chu region. His family members who caught him should be killed without mercy in order to set the record straight. How can we tolerate it? If this continues, everyone in the world will rush to rebel first."
Sharp teeth and sharp mouth!
Wang Zhu said: "I am doing this to tell the rebellious princes that I am magnanimous and do not care about past grudges. If you kill Yu Ji, who among the princes in the world will dare to surrender!"
The queen said angrily: "Anyway, he killed my biological brother, and I want her to pay for it with his life." Wang Zhu was a little angry: "Your brother brought it upon himself, and it is none of other people's business! If you want revenge, why not kill him with a knife?"
I!"
The queen panicked and walked out with her long skirt in hand. She knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, father and concubine, I am loyal to the country and the country. How dare you have the intention of assassinating me? My brother committed suicide and died."
Although I feel distressed, I dare not complain at all to Your Majesty. Your Majesty, please do not misunderstand me."
Wang Zhu didn't want to embarrass the queen too much. He sighed, helped her up and said, "No matter what, this matter is my intention and has nothing to do with the Prime Minister and Yu Ji. From today on, you can't have any complaints."
The queen said sadly: "Have I really committed an unforgivable crime?" Wang Zhu smiled bitterly and said: "It's enough to kill the nine tribes." The queen cried and said: "I have nothing to say, what happened today is all.
At this point, I am tired, please leave!" Dragging her long skirt, she walked towards the inner room.
Wang Zhu looked back at Yu Ji and Gong Ziying: "Come with me!"
As soon as Wang Zhu sat down, Young Master Ying stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please make a decision immediately and abolish the Queen!"
Wang Zhu almost shouted out, this is a big problem of whether we should be separated or not. Young Master Ying was dizzy.
Gongzi Ying is not confused, he is risking his life. The queen's performance today leaves him with no other choice. Either you die or I die. Gongzi Ying has always known that the queen is a person who must take revenge when she has a grudge -
Wang Zhu didn't know that what he saw was the queen's gentle side.
"Young Master Ying, I know your concerns, but don't worry, as long as I live for one day, the queen will never hurt you at all. Even if I die, the future king will treat you well. As for deposing the queen, I think it's too much to make a fuss about.
——”
Young Master Ying said, "The queen has taken advantage of her personal power and is too narrow-minded to be a mother to the world. Your Majesty kills her brother and keeps her sister. There is no guarantee that Xiao Qiang will not be brought into trouble one day! Although I have selfish motives, I also plan for your Majesty. Moreover,
Fortunately for me, I am at least one of the three nobles and a descendant of the First Emperor. But Miss Yu Ji is alone. Tomorrow, His Majesty will send troops to conquer Yuzhong. If the Queen wants to kill her, it would be like killing an ant."
These words reminded Wang Zhu.
Wang Zhu thought to himself, what should he do? Send her back to Chu State. That would be a sign of weakness to Xiang Yu. People outside thought I was afraid of him!
After much deliberation, Wang Zhu felt that there was only one way: "Don't mention the matter of deposing the queen again in the future. I will keep it a secret for you. The queen is a virtuous and virtuous queen, and she is a hero. How can she be deposed without a big mistake? Yu Ji will be deposed tomorrow."
If you go out with the army, I will protect you."
The young master is sweating on his forehead, what? The queen is virtuous and virtuous?
What happened to the emperor today? He lost his memory? It made him dumbfounded!
Wang Zhu also didn't think about it. If the queen was really virtuous and virtuous, would Zhang Xi and Young Master Ying be afraid of this?
Yu Ji knelt on her knees and said softly: "The daughter of the people has a heartless request!"
"Tell me, do you want to return to China?"
Yu Ji bit her lower lip and hummed: "If your majesty lets me go back to the country, I will persuade Xiang Yu to surrender to your majesty, so that your majesty can save a lot of trouble and bring peace to the world."
Are you naive, or is that guy an idiot?
Such pure girls are really rare!
Wang Zhu thought to himself, it's only your fault that you were born in troubled times, but don't blame me.
Yu Ji's pitiful look made Wang Zhu unable to harden his heart and refuse, so he said calmly: "Now is not the time!"
Wang Zhu knew that Yu Ji had a fierce temper, and he wanted to see her often, but he didn't want to rob her. It seemed that he couldn't eat the meat he put on his lips. But the more this happened, the more interested he became. Whenever he thinks about this these days,
A woman who is gentle, graceful, generous and kind will have her heart beat faster.
Why don't you let me time travel to Xiang Yu?!!
Yu Ji said: "Your Majesty, as the king of a country, trembles all living beings and controls the world, why do you need to make an issue of me, a little girl?"
Porridge factory, acting vigorously and resolutely, what a sage. The daughter of the people thought that as long as your majesty is diligent and loves the people, and governs with clear and bright officials, in less than two years, the princes of the world will surrender without a fight, so why send out big soldiers and go to war. If your majesty lets the little girl go, the little girl will
Isn’t it beautiful for a woman to be grateful and spread virtues for His Majesty and to influence all living beings? In other words, if Your Majesty holds this little girl captive, he will definitely be ridiculed by the people of the world. The princes will think that Your Majesty’s behavior is flawed and treacherous. Your Majesty has done a great disservice to my daughter.
People’s hearts are worth the loss!”
Wang Zhu was delighted: "Miss Yu Ji is very sharp-tongued and intelligent. She is much more powerful than ordinary lobbyists. I only want to ask you one question, and you must answer it carefully——"
"Excuse me, Your Majesty, please, Your Majesty." Yu Ji's face was filled with joy.
"Do you miss Xiang Yu?" Wang Zhu felt a little bitter in his heart!
Yu Ji's face turned red: "Your Majesty - this little girl is really worried about her, please grant her permission -"
Wang Zhu closed his eyes: "Go down first and set off with the army tomorrow. Take your maid with you - no one will hurt you - I promise -"
"Your Majesty, did you say that after the little girl answers the questions, you will let me go back to the country?" Yu Ji shouted in disappointment.
Wang Zhudao: "What I mean is that you can stand up and go back to your room after you answer the questions. I didn't say I would let you go back to the country. You can't blame me if you heard wrong!"
Yu Ji's face was livid with anger: "Your Majesty, you have not kept your word, and this little girl feels so contemptuous!" Wang Zhu rolled his eyes: "You have no conscience, but I just saved your life?"
"But, you are the king of a country, and you can never take back what you say!" Yu Ji bit her red lips, waiting for Wang Zhu to fulfill his promise.
Wang Zhu was still trembling all over when he looked at her.
In this state, how can you return it to Xiang Yu? No one will do it if you change it!
"Go down, go down, someone, take her down -"
Chapter completed!
