The Ultimate Treatment of Righteousness and Scheming Under Heaven 2015
The king woke up when the night was deep, he didn't wake up the little Li Zi who was guarding outside, his eyes stared at the brocade pattern on the silk canopy above the bed without focusing.
At the time of his birth, the nine imperial brothers ahead of him were all adults. Although he was born with them as brothers, from the moment he was born, he was a fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others, without any power to fight back.
That imperial power struggle, he was too small, so small that he didn't even have the qualifications to compete with them, but they wouldn't let him go, determined to eliminate future troubles and put him to death!
These years, he has lived in so much suffering! He has so much hatred in his heart! But no matter how much pain and hatred? It still can't change the fact that he is at the mercy of others.
He had told himself countless times that he had the hope left by his father, and as long as he waited patiently, one day he would take his mother out, and then he would live a good life, so as not to disappoint his mother for what she had done for him, and not to disappoint Xiao Rui for saving his life.
But it wasn't until today that he discovered that all these years he had been deceiving himself, repeatedly deceiving himself.
His long-cherished hope was shattered!
What difference is there between life and death for him?
He was so weak and struggling, which was a betrayal of Xiaorui's lifesaving, and a betrayal of his mother living in that desolate tomb.
The king slowly raised his body, and in an instant, his eyes flowed with icy coldness and deep-seated hatred.
"Xiao Lizi, bring me King's medicine."
Xiaoli, who was guarding the medicine stove in the outer room, was dozing off when he heard King Huai calling and immediately woke up. He quickly took the medicine bowl and entered the inner chamber.
Huai Wang took the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp. Little Li Zi hurriedly handed over the honeyed fruit, Huai Wang glanced at it, coughed lightly a few times before calmly saying: "From now on, there's no need to prepare honeyed fruit for me, I won't be needing it anymore." Even the sweetest honeyed fruit couldn't alleviate the bitterness and hatred in his heart.
Xiao Lizi was taken aback, but only thought that Wang Ye was in a bad mood and didn't pay much attention to it. He just respectfully asked: "The kitchen is still preparing food, is Wang Ye..."
"No need, I want to rest, no one is allowed to disturb." King Huai interrupted Xiao Lizi's inquiry and ordered directly.
"Yes, Your Highness." Little Li only then felt that today's prince seemed somewhat different, but after a moment's thought he let it go. He was bestowed upon the prince by the previous emperor, and the prince was his master, his heaven.
Xiao Li closed the door and retreated, and the room fell silent again.
The king struggled to get up, put on the cloak sewn by Empress Gu for him, walked to the decorated rack, stared at a Buddha statue for a while, and resolutely moved it away. There was a rotating bolt there, and after turning it open, a hidden door appeared on the wall.
The king hobbled in, leaning against the wall, and entered through a secret door. As soon as he entered, the secret door closed instantly and returned to normal.
The walls of the dark corridor were inlaid with dozens of large and small night pearls, making it not dim inside. King Huai used a silk handkerchief to press down on his throat, suppressing the cough that kept rising up. Under the clear and cold light of the night pearls, which was like the gentle glow of the moon, his pale face could be seen clearly, with a flush rising due to the forced suppression of his cough.
He walked about four or five steps, and there was no way to go. He closed his eyes and felt the stone wall, then pushed open one of the stones. The stone gate opened, and in front of him was a dark room. In the dark room were piled ten large boxes and one small box.
The king walked forward, one by one opening those boxes. In an instant, golden and silver light flashed, reflecting the brilliance of the night pearls, taking people's breath away.
Ten large chests, eight chests of gold, two chests of silver. Just one chest of silver here is enough for an ordinary person to live a good life.
Looking at these gold and silver, King Hui held a silk handkerchief over his mouth, but his eyes were as cold as ice.
As an emperor, yet incompetent and useless, watching one's own children die one by one for the sake of imperial power. Father Emperor, you clearly know that this is not what I wanted, but it seems that until your death, this is all you can do for me.
Money can make a ghost grind a millstone.
Then I will use this life of worry-free that you left me to fight against heaven for an opportunity, change my situation of being a fish on the chopping board unable to do anything but wait for death!
Under the strong pressure, King Huai walked in front of the last small box and slowly opened it.
Inside the small box, there was only a dark-colored plaque that couldn't be seen in material and a palm-sized gold medal. The gold medal had no dragon pattern, no design, only two characters: "Da She".
The pale and slender hand slowly picked up the pardon gold plaque, King Hua's eyes flashed with the person he met in the cold palace during the day, his mouth hooked coldly, he wanted to see what kind of virtue and ability Yuan Wuyou had to get this gold plaque from him.
Yan Leng Palace, Tai Hui Hall.
Yu Zhu and Yu Cui were shocked to see Xiao Huazi carrying a food box, involuntarily looking at their own master. Although they were delighted in their hearts, they wouldn't show it openly again.
Yu Worry looked at Xiaohua's hands holding the lunchbox and smiled faintly.
Xiao Huazi coughed lightly, trying to calm down, but the joy in her eyes still leaked out: "Princess, this is what Wei Gonggong asked me to bring. From now on, your food and clothing will be specially arranged by the Nei Wu Palace." In other words, Princess lived in You Leng Palace, but was not under the control of the You Leng Palace manager. In this You Leng Palace, no one could bully or take advantage of the princess anymore.
Although she had expected it in her heart, Yu Cui still couldn't hide the excitement and tears in her eyes when Xiaohua said it out loud. The emperor finally remembered the princess, and the princess wouldn't have to suffer with them anymore. If things went on like this... maybe one day the emperor would pardon the princess.
"Princess." Yu Zhu heard this exciting news and couldn't help but look at Yuan Wu You with agitation.
Yu Wu nodded, and Xiao Huazi quickly took out all the dishes from the food box and placed them on the table.
Exquisite and delicate dishes, each dish is not much, but there are two meat dishes, two vegetarian dishes, two dim sum, and a bowl of sweet soup, which is not as good as the treatment enjoyed in the Worry-Free Palace, but also can't be compared with the cold palace.
According to this style of food and clothing, it can be compared with the treatment of those princesses who have not been granted a title.
"Princess, I'll serve you dinner."
This was ordered by the Duke, and it's clear that the people in charge of these dishes in the Imperial Palace would never dare to poison them! But who knows how many masters have planted their own people in the Imperial Palace?
In case someone worries that the princess would turn over, it's not impossible for the master of which palace to take the lead and make a move. Before the princess eats, naturally there must be a palace person to test the poison first.
The princess now has only her and Yu Zhu by her side, so it's natural that they would be the ones to taste the poison.
The unequal origin was worried about making a sound, and the little flower next to him moved his mouth silently, wanting to say something but ultimately didn't make a sound.
Yu Worry smiled slightly: "No need, Xiaohua has already tried them all."
Yu Zhu Yu Cui looked at Xiaohua Zi in surprise, and Xiaohua Zi looked at Yuan Wuyou in surprise, blurting out: "Your Highness, how did you know?" The inner palace servant reported that after the New Year, two miscellaneous eunuchs would be dispatched from the imperial kitchen to serve in the Cold Palace, specifically responsible for the princess's meals. Before the New Year, these days the princess's meals were sent by the inner palace servant, and since Shu Gonggong and Fu Gonggong had avoided the princess after she played the zither, they simply ordered him to deliver food to the princess.
According to the rules of the palace, as a princess, it is necessary for someone to taste the food first. He was also afraid that someone would take advantage of the opportunity to harm the princess, so he took the initiative to try it himself. Thinking that if something went wrong, he could block it and the princess wouldn't have the chance to eat it.
He didn't think the princess would know? He had secretly tried it out, and no one was supposed to see.
Yu Worry glanced at Xiaohua and sighed softly: "Fool, don't do this again. If you're really worried about me, just use a silver needle to test it."
Xiao Huazi's eyes felt hot, and she couldn't express the taste in her heart. She wanted to say something, but her throat was blocked.
Yu Zhu Yu Cui looked at Xiaohua in shock for half a moment, then the two of them tacitly stepped forward and solemnly bowed to Xiaohua: "The slave is representing the princess to thank Master Hua for his sincerity towards the princess."
Xiao Huazi was young and had always been called Xiao Huazi. No one called him Master Hua because he didn't qualify for that title.
Now Yu Zhu and Yu Cui were so solemn and grateful that for a moment, his pale face turned red with anxiety and embarrassment, and he waved his hands nervously: "Two sisters are being too polite to me, I'm not worthy of it."
Xiao Huāzi's face turned red with a thin layer of skin, almost bursting with blood. Yuzhu and Yucui were stunned at first, then couldn't help but cover their mouths and giggle.
Yu Worry smiled and lowered her eyes, without breaking the wings of expectation in the hearts of the three people. The treatment she received from Emperor Qing was already the ultimate treatment in his heart.
She wasn't disappointed because she had never placed her hopes on Emperor Xian.
Jiang Shangyu hangs his fishing rod, waiting for a willing bite, quietly observing the changes, and waiting for an opportunity to make a move.
She began to look forward to what King Hua would do!
