"Speak!" Faced with Hongli's cold words, Xiao Wu said bravely: "The disaster they are talking about refers to...the Queen!"
"Absurd!" Hongli said in a cold voice, brushing his sleeves: "The queen loves the people like her son and is a mother to the world. How can she be a disaster? Those people are just talking nonsense. Let them retreat immediately, otherwise they will be severely punished!"
Xiao Wu said helplessly: "Prince He and Master Fu are ordering them to retreat, but the people are going crazy and refuse to retreat. Prince He has already sent guards with guns to prevent the people from rushing up; Master Fu and the servants
He said that he found someone deliberately provoking the people, probably for the Queen, but unfortunately the situation was too chaotic and the instigator could not be caught!"
Hongli's pupils shrank and he said coldly: "I understand." With that said, he turned to Xianyue, whose cheeks were flushed from the sun and said: "You have been standing for a long time, so you should go to the Zhai Palace to rest for a while, here.
Leave it to me to handle."
Xianyue endured the dryness in her throat and said: "If I leave, I'm afraid the situation will be even more chaotic; in addition, please send an order from the emperor and the prince not to harm any common people!"
Hongli snorted coldly and said: "They dare to break into the Temple of Heaven, which is already a capital crime, not to mention that they keep calling you a disaster star!"
Xianyue sighed and said: "Master Fu said that they were instigated by others, I really can't blame them!"
"Whether you instigate it or do it yourself, since you have committed a crime, you should be punished!" Before Xianyue could say anything else, Hongli already said: "Qi Kuan, help the empress to go to the Zhai Palace to rest. In addition, let Fu
Heng has sent people to guard the Zhai Palace. If the Queen makes any mistakes, I will only ask him!"
Before Qi Kuan could respond, Xianyue already said: "I will not leave. Now that I am here, I will definitely stay here with the emperor to ask for rain! As for the common people..." She scanned the bottom and gathered more and more.
The common people glanced at each other and said in a solemn voice: "The Temple of Heaven must not be stained with blood. This is a rule handed down from our ancestors. How can the emperor make an exception!"
Hongli's eyes were cold and authentic: "But if we don't kill some people, those people will not know how to be afraid and will not retreat!"
"In fact, they are all poor people. If they were not forced to have no choice but to live without hope, how could they do such a heinous thing? As for accusing the concubine of being a disaster star, they were fooled by others. Even if they are guilty,
Not guilty
Damn it!" Seeing that Hongli didn't speak, she said sincerely: "There is also the emperor. If the emperor kills them today, the history books in the future will say that the emperor is cruel and cruel and massacres the people. How can I have the heart to let the emperor become my concubine?
Take the infamy on your back!”
"You can't bear to let me be stigmatized, and I also can't bear to put you in any danger!" Hongli said solemnly: "Xiaoyue, you have done everything for them, and you should never suffer such insults and abuse again;
You are the Queen of the Qing Dynasty, and if they scold you, it is equivalent to scolding me and the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty. I will not allow it, let alone condone it!"
"Your Majesty..." Before Xianyue could continue, Hongli once again asked Qi Kuan: "Why don't you help the Queen to rest quickly?"
"Master, let's..." Before Qi Kuan finished speaking, Xianyue knelt down towards Hongli and said earnestly: "Please forgive these poor people!"
Hongli looked at Xianyue sadly, pointed at the people who were still shouting to get rid of the disaster star, and said: "They scold you like this, but you plead for them. Is it worth it, Xianyue? Will they accept your mercy?"
"
"I don't need their gratitude!" Xianyue shook her head and said: "From the moment the emperor appointed me as his queen, I am the mother of the people in the world. I wonder which mother would argue with her children?
?The ones who really should be killed are those who incite the common people, and they deserve to die!"
There was both relief and pity in Hongli's eyes, "All they think about is themselves. For their own selfishness, anyone can be sacrificed. Is it really worth it?"
Xianyue did not answer his words, but just said: "No matter how bad they are, they are still the subjects of the emperor and his concubines. How can the emperor have the heart to kill them!" Without waiting for Hongli's words, Xianyue kowtowed and said: "Please have mercy on the emperor."
!”
"You..." Hongli didn't know what to say. For a long time, he sighed and said: "If I don't agree, will you keep kneeling like this and be willing to get up?" Seeing Xianyue not speaking, he said helplessly: "
That’s all, I promise you, get up!”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xianyue thanked her gratefully. After holding Qi Kuan's hand and trying to stand up, her abdomen suddenly felt tight. Ever since she got older, she would occasionally have this condition and then loosen up without any problems. She was once pregnant.
After Guo Changle, I knew that this was a normal situation, but this time it was a little different. My abdomen was as tight as a stone, and there was no tendency to loosen up. Instead, I felt a little painful.
Seeing Xianyue suddenly freeze there, Hongli supported her and said nervously: "What's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?"
Just as Xianyue was about to speak, the slight pain suddenly intensified, and her abdomen sank, as if something was about to come out from underneath, making her both painful and panicked. Finally... she still couldn't get through it?
She held Hongli's hand tightly and said with difficulty: "The child... I'm afraid it's about to be born!"
Hongli was most worried about this incident, but he didn't expect it to happen in the end. He hurriedly picked up Xianyue and said sternly: "Tell Dr. Xu to the Zhai Palace immediately!"
After Sixi hurriedly went down, he also ran down the Circle Mound Altar towards the Zhai Palace with Xianyue in his arms. However, he was stopped by the red-eyed people before he took a few steps. It was the first time for these people to be so close.
Seeing the emperor from a distance, he felt a little timid for a moment and did not dare to look at him.
Deep disgust flashed across Hongli's eyes, and he said with a stern tone: "Get out! Get away from me, everyone!"
Those people subconsciously took a step back, but soon stood firm again, pointed at Xianyue who was suffering severe pain, and said with a trembling voice: "She is a disaster star. If she doesn't die, there will be no rain!"
"Disaster star?" Hongli said with a ferocious smile: "I think the disaster star is not the queen, but you. It is because of your selfishness that God has been refusing to rain!"
Hearing this, those people boldly said: "No, she is the disaster star. Otherwise, how could so many things happen in just a few months? Imperial Concubine Yi Min, Ninth Brother and the severe drought. She
Damn it!"
"Do you know why Imperial Concubine Yimin died, and why Brother Jiu died? You don't know anything, so you are just talking nonsense here!" Hongli's eyes were as cold as a bite, "I will give you one last chance.
, if you don’t get out of the way, all of them will die! Hong Zhou! Fu Heng!”
Hearing Hongli's shout, Hong Zhou and the two men immediately rushed to Hong Li's side. Dozens of spears appeared with them!
