When they arrived at Cining Palace, Hongli walked in without waiting for the palace people to announce it. Ling Ruo was having a meal. When he saw him coming in, he smiled and said, "Is the emperor here to have dinner with Ai's family?"
Hongli didn't have time to salute, so he said to Yang Hai: "Go find a rope immediately, the thicker the better; besides, except Shuixiu, if everyone else goes down."
Ling Ruo was confused by him and said: "What is the emperor doing?"
"Son, I'll explain it to Huang Eniang later." Seeing Yang Hai still standing there, he shouted: "Go quickly!"
Yang Hai glanced at Ling Ruo, and after the latter nodded, he took a hemp rope about the thickness of a child's arm. As for the palace people, they all followed Hongli's words and with the exception of Shuixiu, all retreated.
go out.
After Hongli sat down in the chair, he said to Yang Hai: "Come here and tie me up."
Hearing this, Yang Hai was so frightened that he dropped the rope in his hand. After coming to his senses, he hurriedly knelt down and said, "The emperor is a man of ten thousand gold. How dare I disrespect the emperor?"
The soreness like ants eating the body had already begun to appear. Hongli was afraid that if he delayed any longer, he would be tortured, so he went to eat the powder in Xiao Wu's hand, and immediately said: "Sixi, do it."
"Hey!" Si Xi responded, took the rope from Yang Hai, and tied Hongli up tightly. He had already guessed a bit of Hongli's thoughts. Although it was a little cruel, this... was indeed the only one.
method.
After it was tied up, Hongli said again: "Xiaowu, give the medicine to the Queen Mother."
Ling Ruo couldn't tell what kind of medicine it was, so she looked at Hongli, whose face was slightly distorted, and said, "Emperor, can you tell the Ai family now?"
Hongli felt it obvious now, and began to yawn non-stop. He reluctantly cheered up and said: "Sixi, tell the Queen Mother about the matter. In addition, Huang'e Niang, no matter what your son asks you to do, you can do it later."
Never give your son the medicine in your hand!"
After Si Xi explained the matter in detail, Ling Ruo became furious and slammed the table, causing the dishes to jingle, and said sternly: "What a remnant of the Yehenala clan, he not only hid it from everyone"
came to the emperor and colluded with Fang Jian to drug him and asked him to kill him.
Later, with the twelfth elder brother, and that Gao Bin... Even if Gao Ruyu was killed by the emperor, she deserved it. Has the emperor given him too little honor and favor over the years? It's just that he doesn't think about the importance of the king's kindness.
He actually colluded with that Qiao Yan'er and harmed the emperor's life, he really deserves to die!"
"The emperor has sent a secret agent to bring Gao Bin back secretly. But the most important thing now is the emperor's body. I don't know whether the emperor can survive this." As he said, he said with some reluctance: "Your Majesty, this kind of thing
Is there really no antidote to medicine?”
Ling Ruo let out a long sigh, caressed Hongli's shoulder sympathetically, and said: "If there was an antidote, there wouldn't be so many people addicted to it. This is the case with tobacco ointment, let alone something more domineering.
The emperor knows that it is difficult for him to give up this drug on his own, and you don't dare to stop it too much, so you can only come to the Ai family and let the Ai family help him." After a pause, she said: "In this way, before you go
Is the argument between the emperor and the empress fake at night?"
"Yes, the Emperor was afraid that Qiao Yan'er would hurt the Queen, so he deliberately said those hurtful words. However, Qiao Yan'er was not satisfied and insisted on the Emperor issuing an order to kill the Queen and the twelfth brother. When she came to see the Emperor today
, He said that he would wait for another seven days at most. After seven days, if the emperor does not issue an order, he will no longer provide this medicine."
The night wind gently knocked on the carved window lattice, and there was a soft "whirring" sound. Ling Ruo knelt down, looked at Hongli's distorted face, and said with loving eyes: "You are doing the right thing, you are the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
How could the late emperor's proudest son be controlled by others? Don't worry, the Aijia will definitely help you get rid of your drug addiction. After you recover, the Aijia will work with you to recover this debt from them. No one can harm the Aijia.
son!"
For Ling Ruo, Hongli was more important than herself. Whoever dared to harm Hongli would have to spit out ten points from that person!
Hongli could no longer listen to Ling Ruo's words at this moment and was trying his best to endure the discomfort in his body. Every minute and every second at this time was torture for him. The most terrifying thing was that he didn't know the purpose of this torture.
Where is the end? It may be coming soon, or it may be... far away.
After an unknown amount of time, Hongli could no longer bear the pain of being eaten by thousands of ants, and hoarsely said: "Give me the medicine, give it to me quickly!"
His words made Ling Ruo's hands tighten suddenly, and she clutched the packet of medicine tightly. Hongli's pleading kept ringing in her ears. In the past, not long after Hongli felt uncomfortable, he asked Xiao Wu to get the medicine. Unlike this time, it was really strange.
Better to die.
Hongli burst into tears and said: "Empress, my son, please give the medicine to your son. It's really... it's really uncomfortable. You are my son's biological mother, can you bear to see your son being tortured?" Seeing Ling.
If Ruo still ignored him, he began to struggle desperately. He even ignored the red mark on his wrist and tried desperately to struggle. When he got to the back, he actually fell to the ground with the chair. Even so, he used
Try your best to move in Ling Ruo's direction.
Seeing Hongli in such pain, Yang Hai and Shui Xiu couldn't bear it. They could almost be said to have watched Hongli grow up. They had treated Hongli very well since they were young, and Hongli also remembered this kindness. After he ascended the throne,
, they were rewarded with honors and possessions that ordinary palace people could never achieve in their lifetimes. It can be said that now that they have left the palace, they can live a prosperous life until they die.
Shuixiu and Hongli had a particularly deep relationship. She walked over to support Hongli and said, "Your Majesty, you don't want to be like this. Just be patient and it will get over soon."
"I really can't bear it anymore..." Hongli was trembling and crying, and begged: "Aunt Shuixiu, you have loved me the most since I was a child. When the Queen reprimanded me, you always helped me to speak. You helped me."
I beg the Queen Mother, let her give me the medicine, please, I am going to die from the pain."
"No, that medicine will make you more and more addicted, Your Majesty..." Before Shuixiu could finish her words, Hongli hit her head on the ground. She was so frightened that she quickly stretched out her hand to block it, and anxiously advised: "Your Majesty, you
Just be patient and hurry up..."
Hongli kept crying and said in a trembling voice: "I can't help it... I can't help it for a moment. Either give me medicine, or... you will kill me!"
"How could you say such a thing..." Shui Xiu felt really uncomfortable and couldn't help but raise her head and said, "Queen Mother, why don't you... let it go for now and ask the emperor to stop taking medicine tomorrow?"
"If you can't bear it once, there will be a second and third time. If you do this, you are not helping the emperor, but harming him!" Seeing his favorite son being tortured like this, Ling Ruo felt more anxious than anyone else.
Everyone would be sad, but for the sake of Hong Li, she could only force herself to be cruel.
