King Chu Yang did not drive those women out of the palace. After all, they were all women who had been with him, and they had not done anything to feel sorry for him or hurt Qi Xiaoyu. Therefore, he did not
He doesn't intend to let them leave. He can't let these women live outside.
Qi Xiaoyu looked at King Chu Yang's reaction and knew his decision. After waiting for several days, he still had no intention of letting those women leave. Qi Xiaoyu began not to believe in love again.
She was always like this. One moment she was carried away by King Chu Yang's love, and the next moment King Chu Yang forced him to no longer believe in love. Although she also hated her own capriciousness, she couldn't control herself even at this time.
, she couldn't force herself to leave King Chu Yang and King Chu Yang's Mansion. In her heart, she still had some illusions about King Chu Yang. She knew that he loved her, but he didn't love her enough yet.
Forget the patriarchal thoughts in feudal thought. King Chu Yang also knew that she loved him, but he didn't understand that since she loved him, why couldn't she be more tolerant and generous?
Now, Qi Xiaoyu and King Chu Yang have started a cold war again. They obviously have each other, but they can't break their principles for each other. Two people with such strong self-esteem are unwilling to make compromises. They both feel that
It is the other party who should make compromises
After the new emperor ascended the throne, the situation gradually stabilized. The empress dowager, no, I should say the current empress dowager, was about to take action. She would never let the person who killed her son have a good end. Since
If she can't kill Prince Quyang's Mansion openly, then she can do it secretly.
The Queen Mother recruited King Quyang into the palace. King Quyang was still proud that his daughter finally became the Queen Mother. From now on, the world belongs to their Qi family. He came to the palace excitedly. After seeing the Queen Mother, he immediately
Saluting, "Old minister, see the Empress Dowager!"
"No gift!" The Empress Dowager turned her back to King Quyang and faced the exquisite screen specially made for her by Zhu Jin.
"Thank you, Queen Mother!" King Quyang stood up
"King Quyang, is it easy for the Ai family to take care of you?" The Queen Mother suddenly turned around, looked at King Quyang, and asked him slowly
"Yes, the Empress Dowager, you have been extremely kind to me, Prince Quyang. Even if I die, I will never be able to repay the great kindness you have shown to me, the Empress Dowager!" King Quyang knelt down again.
The Empress Dowager ignored his hypocritical gratitude and said directly: "Your daughter, the Ai family made her the queen. She killed the emperor's concubines, and the Ai family also protected her. She killed the emperor's child. I'm sorry.
The family has not punished her, but she is the royal grandson of the Ai family!" The Empress Dowager said calmly to King Quyang
"The old minister did not teach his daughter well, so that she got into such a big disaster, and I cannot escape the blame for her death!" King Quyang didn't know what the Empress Dowager meant by these words, so he could only kneel down and confess his guilt.
"King Quyang, Aijia, please take a look at what this is!" The Empress Dowager took out the letter given to her by King Chuyang and threw it in front of King Quyang.
After King Quyang saw the letter, he was dumbfounded. How could this letter fall into the hands of the Empress Dowager? He clearly ordered the messenger to get rid of the letter. How could he let the letter fall into the hands of the Empress Dowager?
"Does King Quyang know this thing?" The Empress Dowager threw another small porcelain vase in front of King Quyang. If King Quyang still had any luck when facing the letter, then this small porcelain vase completely defeated his final thoughts.
line of defense
"I deserve to die for my crime!" King Quyang just wants to avoid bringing harm to the family.
"Even if you die ten thousand times, you can't make up for your sins. That is the biological son and grandson of the Ai family. You are so cruel!" The Queen Mother said sadly. No matter how strong she is, she is still a human being.
A woman of flesh and blood, she also longs for the happiness of having children and grandchildren, and also wants to enjoy the fun of playing with her grandchildren.
However, they were all ruined by King Quyang and his daughter. She hated them both, father and son, and she must let them bury her son and grandson together.
"I am willing to die to apologize. I only ask the Empress Dowager to let go of the guilty minister's family!" King Quyang knew that this was a crime to punish the nine tribes. He also knew that the Empress Dowager could still summon him today, not
Announcement to the world shows that the Queen Mother still has scruples in her heart, and she wants to use this to protect her family
The Queen Mother said coldly, "King Quyang, King Quyang, you still want to threaten the Ai family at this time!"
"The guilty minister dare not!" King Quyang thought that he could still threaten the Empress Dowager. He thought that he and his daughter had killed the late emperor, and asking him to die to apologize would be a relief to the Empress Dowager. She
He should let the people from his palace go for the sake of the Qi family.
"If the Ai family won't let your family go, what will you do?" The Empress Dowager was not angry but threatened.
King Quyang knelt in front of the Empress Dowager, "Isn't it enough for me to pay for my sin with death?"
"Is your life comparable to that of my royal son?" the Empress Dowager sarcastically said.
"My life cannot be compared with that of the late emperor, but my life is related to the Qi family. You..." King Quyang was really anxious, and he said the words to threaten the Queen Mother without thinking.
"He said he was not threatening the Ai family!" the Queen Mother said calmly, and then ordered the people outside, "Come here!"
"Yes!" The eunuch and grandma who had been guarding the door came in.
"The Empress Dowager has established a new master and has made great contributions to the country. The Ai family will reward her with a pot of Donghai tribute wine!" the Empress Dowager told the mothers beside her.
"Yes!" After receiving the order, the nanny immediately went to get the wine.
"The Empress Dowager!" King Quyang hit his head hard on the ground, "I am willing to bear the blame alone!" King Quyang also knew what stupid thing he had just done. He actually dared to threaten the Empress Dowager. He was so stupid and naive.
"Wait!" the Queen Mother said to the nanny.
"Yes!" The nanny stopped, turned around and respectfully waited for the Queen Mother to continue her instructions.
"Pick up that bottle on the ground!" said the Empress Dowager
"Yes!" Grandma picked up the bottle
"The things inside are good things prepared by the Queen Mother herself. You can also add some to the tribute wine!" the Queen Mother ordered calmly.
"Yes!" Everyone knew that it was poison, and the Empress Dowager wanted to poison the Empress Dowager to death.
"Go and find Marquis Qi Yin for the Ai family!" The Empress Dowager ordered another eunuch.
"Yes!" The eunuch went to Qi Yinhou Mansion to convey the order
The nanny came to the palace of the Empress Dowager with the tribute wine gifted by the Empress Dowager, "The Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager has a reward!"
At that time, Empress Qi was now the empress dowager above all people. How could she take the reward from the empress dowager seriously anymore? However, she could not completely break up with the empress dowager, she just said it lightly.
A voice: "Put it there!"
"The Empress Dowager has a decree. The Empress Dowager supports the new king, and her contribution is to the country. She will give you a pot of Donghai Tribute Wine!" The mama said expressionlessly.
"The Aijia said you can just put it there!" The Queen Mother was annoyed. Who does this old nanny think she is?
"The Empress Dowager ordered the slaves to watch the Queen Mother drink the wine with their own eyes!" The grandma's face was expressionless.
"The Ai family just won't drink. What can you do?" The Empress Dowager thought that she had the final say in everything in the palace. She didn't even take the Empress Dowager seriously, and she dared to hit a little servant.
Give orders under the banner of the Empress Dowager
"I advise the Queen Mother, you should drink it yourself!" Mammy is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the Queen Mother gave her a very clear meaning, that is, the Queen Mother must drink it.
"The Ai family just won't drink!" The empress dowager wanted to show her status, and now she has the final say.
"Then don't blame the slaves!" the old mama said coldly. She waved her hand, and a row of tall and burly guards walked in. Two of their guards came forward to arrest the Empress Dowager. Naturally, the Empress Dowager's people wanted to
Wanting to save their master, however, the group of guards pulled out their long swords, and the shining sword light scared them so much that they did not dare to move.
"What are you going to do?" the Empress Dowager said fiercely, "Ai Jia is the Empress Dowager and the master of the harem. How dare you do anything random?"
"The Queen Mother, the Queen Mother has sent a slave to take you on your way!" The old woman held the tribute wine and poured a glass of wine for the Queen Mother. "This servant is also following orders, and please go on your way with peace of mind!"
"On the road?" the Queen Mother asked urgently, "Which way?" The Queen Mother struggled, unable to break free from the restraints of the two guards.
"Your Majesty, you have never been favored by the late emperor during your lifetime. The empress dowager sympathizes with you and allows you to go and bury the late emperor. It will not be in vain for you and your husband!" The old woman said to the empress dowager, and walked to the emperor with wine.
In front of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother waited in horror for the glass of poisonous wine. She shook her head, not wanting to drink the poisonous wine. The old woman ruthlessly pinched the Queen Mother's chin and poured the poisonous wine into the Queen Mother's mouth. She
After he finished pouring it, he said to the Empress Dowager, "This is the medicine you prepared for the Emperor, and the Empress Dowager has given it to you again!"
"No..." The Empress Dowager shouted weakly and helplessly. However, there was no way to save her life. The old mother watched the Empress Dowager gradually lose consciousness. In the end, she even lost her breathing and heartbeat.
The old nanny knelt down, and everyone around her knelt down as well. She kowtowed to the Queen Mother, and then, pretending to be sad, she shouted: "The Queen Mother has passed away!"
Then, the old woman went to report to the Queen Mother. She knelt in front of the Queen Mother and said: "To report to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother also followed the late Emperor because she missed the late Emperor too much!"
Hearing the words of the old nanny, the Queen Mother was angry, but she would not spare King Quyang's family so easily. However, when King Quyang heard the words of the old nanny, he was already paralyzed.
Sitting on the ground, the Empress Dowager looked coldly at King Quyang, who was ten years older, and said, "Arrange for King Quyang to live in the side hall." In fact, the Empress Dowager put King Quyang under house arrest.
Leng looked at the desperate back of King Chu Yang, and the Empress Dowager sneered, "It was you who ruined the princes of the Ai family. It was you who made the Ai family so sad. The Ai family must pay you back ten times and a hundred times!"
