Chapter 726: Am I still unable to tolerate a child? (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival~)
Looking at the broken porcelain pieces on the floor, the Prime Minister breathed a sigh of relief.
In the view of King Xiang, Emperor Wu was still willing to get angry at him, which meant that Emperor Wu did not really want to kill him and his family.
But what Emperor Wu said next really surprised King Xiang.
The Emperor Wu was sitting cross-legged on a low platform. When she heard the Prime Minister say that the daughter of the Gao family had already been executed, she became so angry that she raised her hand and threw the tea cup in front of her to the ground.
Emperor Wu had chosen the right place and tried to throw the porcelain as far away from the king as possible, so as not to injure the king who was kneeling on the ground with the broken porcelain pieces.
But Emperor Wu was still very angry with the Prime Minister's words and his treatment. Emperor Wu got off the short platform and didn't even have time to put on his shoes, so he walked to the Prime Minister in two or three steps on the floor. before.
Emperor Wu looked down at the Prime Minister who was kneeling on the ground. She suppressed her anger and asked word by word: "Am I still unable to tolerate an unborn child?
That is what I have said. Your woman, that is your blood, you just deal with it like this?”
Emperor Wu was sad and angry at King Xiang’s self-assertion, but King Xiang, who was kneeling on the ground, listened to Emperor Wu’s words. The words really hurt my heart.
There was a surge of anger in his chest. King Xiang wanted to raise his head and ask Emperor Wu: "If you can tolerate others, then why did my eldest brother (Li Hong) and second brother (Li Xian) die?
The third brother (Li Xian) is still imprisoned in a small space. Can you tolerate a child? "
But now you have the power to command hundreds of thousands of guardsmen? Emperor Wu, who had the Forbidden Army and the bad guy's sword, was no longer the one who wanted to compromise and discuss with the courtiers.
Prince Xiang is afraid. He is afraid that the words he blurts out will destroy the entire palace of Prince Xiang and hundreds of people will be buried with him.
The Prime Minister raised his head and looked at Emperor Wu's questioning eyes looking down from above. He bit the base of his tongue fiercely with his teeth. Even though there was already the rusty taste of blood in his mouth, he still had to grit his teeth. , never utter a single word.
Emperor Wu saw the red eyes of King Xiang, with tears already in them.
Not to mention that Emperor Wu's body is really good. Not only can she get up early every day and be a good swordsman at her age, she also has clear ears and eyesight without any signs of aging.
So, she naturally saw the hatred in the eyes of King Xiang.
Emperor Wu did not find it difficult to understand. According to what she thought, when she woke up, she was already faced with that situation. All she could do was to ascend the throne as emperor.
This emperor, she really had to do it.
She meant what she said to Du Qinghui.
(Chapter 684 Plot)
Power can really alienate a person!
They are biological mother and son, but they are also monarchs and ministers, and more importantly, they can only be monarchs and ministers.
But the world seems to be more harsh on mothers. Since ancient times, in the royal family, there have been many cases of fathers killing sons, sons killing fathers, brothers killing brothers, and brothers killing brothers?
How many emperors' positions are not stained with blood and human lives?
But Emperor Wu in history, a woman and a mother, seemed to be the only one who couldn't do this.
Emperor Wu rolled down his sleeves. She turned her back to the Prime Minister who was looking up at her on the ground. After a pause, she calmed down and spoke: "The Prime Minister has violated the rules before the emperor. I will punish you." He closed his door and thought about his mistakes. "
Emperor Wu closed his eyes and his heart.
"Da Xun, send the Prime Minister to the side hall and leave the palace tomorrow morning."
After saying this, Emperor Wu slowly opened her eyes. There were no other emotions in her eyes. She was still the arrogant and aloof emperor who held supreme power!
Emperor Wu still didn't wear shoes and walked towards the long bench where he usually reviewed memorials. Wang Dajue heard Emperor Wu's words and dared to move.
The palace maid came in and carefully picked up the teacup that was broken by Emperor Wu. Wang Dajuan also stepped forward and shouted to the Prime Minister in a low voice, "Your Majesty? Get up, I will take you to the side hall."
Prince Xiang had been kneeling on the ground for a long time, and his kneecaps were painful and numb. He finally stood up with Wang Daxuan's support, staggered for a moment, and spit out a mouthful of blood on the floor.
“Your Majesty!”
This mouthful of blood frightened Wang Dajuan, and his voice when he called the Prime Minister became much louder. Emperor Wu, who was already sitting on the dragon chair, heard this voice and resisted himself from looking at the Prime Minister. Finally, Wang Dajuan called two powerful eunuchs to drive the Prime Minister out. As soon as he left the hall, Wang Dajuan quickly ordered someone to find a doctor.
Wang Dajue understood that even though Emperor Wu scolded the Prime Minister and punished the Prime Minister to shut up and think about his mistakes, this was Emperor Wu's son after all. How could Emperor Wu not care?
In the side hall, watching the doctor on duty at the Imperial Medical Office put down his hand to diagnose the pulse today, Wang Daxuan quickly stepped forward and looked at the doctor nervously and asked: "How is it? Is it serious?"
The doctor nodded first, then shook his head, and finally led Wang Dajuan out and away from Queen Xiang. Only then did the doctor dare to say: "I was so frightened and angry that I bit my tongue. Now I'm done." It's nothing serious, but the injury on the tongue will probably take about seven or eight days to heal.
Before that, I had to eat liquid food. "
The doctor explained a few words, and then said: "The ointment has been put on. I will make a bowl of soothing soup in a while, feed it to the prince, take it, and have a peaceful sleep. I should be fine tomorrow. A lot. "
"Hurry, prescribe the medicine quickly. "
Wang Dajue watched the doctor give the Prime Minister some medicine, and the Prime Minister also fell asleep in a daze, and then returned to Xuande Hall with the pulse record and prescription written by the doctor.
In the Xuande Hall, Emperor Wu was at his desk writing and reviewing the memorial. From a distance, Wang Dajuan saw that Emperor Wu was not wearing shoes. He quickly went to get the shoes and helped Emperor Wu put them on. Then he took out the doctor's letter from his sleeve pocket. The pulse record and prescription are out
"Everyone, we have let the doctor take a look. The prince is fine and has gone to sleep now."
Emperor Wu carefully looked at the pulse chart and prescriptions placed on the table by Wang Dajuan by candlelight, going back and forth. After reading it two or three times, Emperor Wu let out a long sigh.
“How old are you, how can you still be so angry?
I just said a few words to him, but look at him, he can actually bite his tongue to bleed?
Da Xun, he is hurting my heart on purpose!”
Wang Dajue lowered his head and said nothing. He knew that Emperor Wu just wanted to complain at this moment, and did not really want you to agree with her.
Looking at the words "frightened and angry, attacking the heart" written by the doctor on the pulse case, Emperor Wu slowly said softly: "Call Zong Zheng tomorrow and follow what the Prime Minister said and let Gao Gao Let the daughter go to the Li family grave.”
As for the King Xiang, at least on the surface, it seems that the King was really tricked by Mrs. Side’s natal family, and it was a big trick.
But is the truth of the matter really like this?
Of course, no matter what, this is what Emperor Wu was sure of. King Xiang is innocent, and the pregnant daughter of the Gao family is dead. That's how it is.
But this is just for the Prime Minister, the matter is over, and others still have things to settle.
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Lao Tang wishes everyone a happy family reunion and great fortune~
On the way home, I looked up at the moon in the sky. Although it was hidden in the clouds, it was still It is very round~
