"I said that you are my son. Since we are mother and son, no matter what you say, I will not care. What's more..." Nala raised his head and wiped away the tears that appeared in his eyes, "Then
This matter is indeed my fault, and it is natural for you to hate me."
After a moment of silence, Nala took advantage of Hongshi's daze, pulled out his arm from his hand, put down his sleeves and said: "Okay, you can go back. Huang's mother is fine. Also, you must remember to take medicine, otherwise it will be bad."
My body is full of regrets. Xiao Ningzi, help your second brother out. As for Jade..." Looking at Jade who came in behind Hong Shi, Nala's eyes suddenly turned cold, "What did I tell you?
?”
Jade panicked and quickly knelt down and said: "I know I was wrong, but it was because the second elder brother refused to allow the master to continue sending medicine to the house. I had no choice but to tell the truth and beg the master for forgiveness."
.”
Nala slapped his palm on the rosewood table and said with hatred and pain: "I have already told you that no matter what the circumstances, you are not allowed to tell the second elder brother about this matter, but you actually told me what I said
Is there a wind in your ears?" Under the sleeves, there was blood flowing down, but it was Na Lashi who used too much force and burst the wound on his arm, causing the blood to flow out again.
Hearing this, Feicui became more and more panicked and kept kowtowing: "Master, please be merciful. I really didn't mean it."
"Since you have made a mistake, you should be punished!" There was endless pain in Nala's eyes, and she felt uncomfortable in punishing Jade, but it was unjustifiable not to punish him. In the palace, the most important thing is to have clear rewards and punishments.
Sanfu, who was originally standing behind Nala, felt anxious. He boldly walked to Jade and knelt down and said, "Please master, for the sake of Jade's loyalty, please spare her this time."
"Bold, who allowed you to intercede for her? Do you want to be punished along with her?" Nala scolded him. Seeing that Sanfu was still kneeling on the ground motionless, he became angry and said repeatedly: "
Very good, it seems that I have really indulged you in a bad way. Someone, come here, drag them both down and give them twenty canes!"
"Master, have mercy!" Feicui and Sanfu begged for mercy loudly. Nala turned his head and did not look at them, obviously afraid that seeing them would make him soft-hearted.
A few strong and rough eunuchs rushed in from outside. Before they could catch Sanfu and Jade, Hongshi, who had been standing in the palace and had not left, had already shouted: "Back off!"
The movements of the rough eunuchs were stagnant, and they looked at each other left and right, not knowing what to do. It was true that Nala was the master, but Hongshi was also the master in Kunning Palace. Which one should they listen to?
"Hongshi, what are you doing?" Nala looked over in surprise, confused.
After standing for such a long time, Hongshi felt very frustrated and signaled Xiao Ningzi to help him sit down on a chair covered with soft brocade cushions, "I think Feicui did not make a mistake, and the emperor should not punish her..."
"How can it be true that Feicui didn't obey my order to tell you about Yao Yinzi?" Nala glared at Feicui who was lowering his head and weeping, with a rather displeased look on his face.
"Even if this is the case, Huang's mother has always been merciful, and a few words of punishment is enough, let alone using the palace rules and sticks to make them suffer more. Besides, Jade and Sanfu have been with them since they were young.
Even the children and ministers who are beside Huang'e Niang have watched them grow up, and even if they have no merit, they still have to work hard." Hongshi persuaded earnestly, but he tried his best to excuse them.
"Be compassionate..." Nala murmured and repeated these four words, and a bitter smile slowly escaped from the corner of her mouth, "You are wrong, I regard human life as nothing, and I am basically a snake, scorpion, and poisonous woman.
.”
Hongshi was stunned for a moment before he remembered that these were the words he said after he woke up from poisoning. He looked gloomy and said, "Is the Queen still complaining that I didn't use my words at that time?"
"No!" Nala took a deep breath and said, "You are right, I am indeed ruthless and as poisonous as snakes and scorpions. After killing Jiamo, I have not slept peacefully for a single day.
With your eyes open, you will see Jiamo and the unborn child asking for their lives. The grandson, that is my first grandson. Just because of my mistake,
He didn't even have a chance to look at this prosperous and prosperous world." She raised her blood-stained palms and said with a smile and a cry: "Look at these hands, they are all stained with blood. No matter how much I wash them, I can't wash them away.
!Hongshi, whether you believe it or not, I can tell you that the pain I endured by killing Jiamo and the child will definitely not be lighter than yours."
Listening to her words, Hongshi's eyes were already red, his body was trembling slightly, and unspeakable sadness spread throughout his body. But this time it was a little different from the past. He felt that Nala had a strong feeling.
The words of deep regret, seeing the blood she shed because of him, the hatred faded away little by little, until even he couldn't tell whether he still hated or complained.
In such silence, Xiao Ningzi said softly: "Second brother, the empress did not lie to you. She really regrets it. A few days ago, she asked her servant to go to Wanshou Temple to perform rituals for Jiafujin and the young prince. She hopes that they can be reincarnated as soon as possible.
Go to a good home!"
"Shut up, who told you to talk too much!" Nala scolded unhappily. Xiao Ningzi shrank and quickly knelt down without saying a word.
"Take them down!" Nala waved weakly at the rough eunuchs, but Hongshi's voice rang out again, pleading: "Please be compassionate and forgive them!
"
"Hongshi, you..." Nala seemed a little shocked and a little sad, "You know that I am not a compassionate person, so why are you saying these words deliberately? Are you deliberately making me feel more uncomfortable? I
I know that I owe you that thing, and no matter what I do now, I can't compensate you."
"Huang'e Niang is wrong." Nala didn't know if he had misunderstood, but Hongshi's "Huang'e Niang" was different from the coldness on the surface before, as if there was a touch of emotion in it.
"I didn't want to make you sad." Hongshi lowered his head, not knowing where to start. After a while, he continued, but he said: "Let Feicui get up, don't punish her."
"Okay." Seeing that Hongshi wanted to plead for Feicui, Nala would not dissuade him. He raised his face to signal Feicui to get up. Feicui was overjoyed and quickly thanked Nala and Hongshi.
"Go and get medicine and gauze." Hongshi ordered Xiao Ningzi. Xiao Ningzi guessed his intention after a moment's thought, and quickly agreed, and soon brought clean gauze and gauze to stop bleeding and promote muscle growth.
, and a basin of clean warm water. Hongshi walked to Nala silently and said, "Stretch out your hand."
