Chapter 2652 Life and Death
Emperor Jingyuan smiled, and lay down behind the dragon chair with his thin body, his chin raised, his eyes full of contempt, looking at Wei Qi: "You are so cowardly, you are so afraid of even lies without evidence... You It's okay for such people to pretend to be benevolent and righteous, and to raise an ignorant and reckless team, but to be the emperor...that would really disgrace God, yuck!"
He was so excited that he vomited a large mouthful of blood. Wei Qi, who wanted to strangle him to death, was so disgusted that he took several steps back and sneered: "Emperor Sin, as the old saying goes, people who are about to die can speak kindly. You are sick." It's so serious, so I should say more kind words, otherwise I'm afraid I'll be punished by God before I die."
"Wei Qi, shut up!" Mr. Feng couldn't bear it anymore. He stood under the throne and glared at Wei Qi: "Emperor Jingyuan was at fault, but he gave up the country to the Wei family, allowing the soldiers and civilians of the world to avoid a war, and saved many people. His life, you and everyone in the world must accept his love, and you shouldn’t utter sarcastic words!”
Wei Qi was scolded angrily by Mr. Feng in public, and felt a little embarrassed for a while.
It was Emperor Jingyuan who opened his mouth to relieve his siege: "I mistakenly killed the families of Qin, Luo, Yu and other loyal ministers, and was unable to provide disaster relief. On impulse, I also went on to destroy the army, imposed exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and plunged the soldiers and civilians of the world into dire straits. , for ten years, I really deserve to be punished by God... Today, I will die to apologize to the world."
He looked at Wei Qi again and said with a smile: "It's just that some living villains should be careful, because God's Punishment will come to him at any time and kill him!"
After Wei Qi heard this, his face turned pale again.
Wei Xiao listened to Emperor Jingyuan's words and looked at Wei Qi's face, and couldn't help but become suspicious... From the beginning to the end, Emperor Jingyuan said that he killed the Qin family and the Luo family by mistake, and never said that he killed the Wei family by mistake and let Jiangshan's The first condition is to let them investigate the murder case of Wei Guogong and his family that year, making it look like he was deceived and led to the tragedy that year.
Could it be that the person who harmed Wei Guogong and his family was...his uncle?
impossible!
At that time, my uncle was just an ordinary second son of the Duke of Guo. Apart from being somewhat famous, loving to honor several elders, and having a wide circle of friends, he had no other great abilities. He was incapable of doing anything to frame Duke Wei and his family. Things come up.
But Wei Xiao was wrong.
Wei Qi doesn't have the ability, but as long as he has the heart, someone will help him.
As for who helped him?
In addition to the thieves lurking in Chu territory, there are naturally aristocratic families... There are many people who want Chu to be destroyed. If these people join forces and harm Emperor Jingyuan several times, they can always hit the target of Emperor Jingyuan. Let a despicable and incompetent villain drive the heir to the throne who is praised by everyone completely crazy.
Although Wei Xiao felt that Wei Qi was not capable of framed Wei Guogong and his family, he had grown a lot in the past ten years. He no longer only looked at the surface when things happened, he buried this suspicion in his heart and waited for the Wei family to After taking complete control of the country, he sent people to check Wei Qi.
If Wei Qi really did it, he would definitely chop him into pieces!
"Zhong Huan, bring me my armor-piercing gun!" Emperor Jing Yuan's words interrupted Wei Xiao's thoughts.
"Yes." Zhong Huan brought the armor-breaking spear and handed it to Emperor Jingyuan: "Your Majesty, the armor-piercing spear is here."
Emperor Jingyuan took it, but now he was struggling to even speak. He couldn't hold the armor-piercing gun steadily, and he was almost knocked off the dragon chair by the armor-piercing gun. Zhong Huan cleverly helped him hold the armor-piercing gun and let him He could stand with a gun and look down at Wei Qi who wanted to see his joke.
Wei Qi failed to see the joke and was looked down upon by Emperor Jingyuan. He was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Emperor Jingyuan glanced at the two ministers and generals in the Jinluan Palace and said: "The country is given to you... I only hope you can make it prosperous for thousands of years~"
After saying this, he began to lose his temper and was about to raise his gun to commit suicide. Doctor Wu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, wait a minute, the Queen is waiting outside the palace. She wants to see you. Are you willing to see her?"
Emperor Jingyuan held the gun for a moment, just for a moment, and did not reply. Instead, he continued to raise his spirits and prepared to kill himself... He knew that Tiaohua would come, but he had failed her too much, and he really had no face to see her. So be it, they have missed it for a lifetime anyway.
However, this time, it was no longer him who had the final say.
"Since you don't want to see me, then I will come in and see you myself." The queen walked in from outside the palace wearing the phoenix crown and harem she wore when she got married, holding a riding crop in one hand and a jug of wine in the other. Although she is old and sick, she has an air of ease and comfort that is familiar to Emperor Jingyuan, just like the teenage girl who was dressed in bright clothes and angry with horses decades ago.
"Tiaohua~" Emperor Jingyuan burst into tears and fell heavily on the dragon chair, all his toughness vanished at this moment.
"It's me." The queen came up, knelt down in front of the dragon chair, looked up at him and smiled, put down the wine bottle, took out the handkerchief, wiped his face, and said, "In the blink of an eye, you are old."
Then he asked him: "Are you done with your work now? Can you fulfill the promise you made when you asked to marry me and take me to the northwest for a swim?"
Emperor Jingyuan lowered his head, looked at her, and shook his head: "I'm afraid I have to wait ten years before the tomb can be moved to the Longshan Mountains... Are you still willing to wait for me?"
The Queen smiled: "I've been waiting, and I've never changed my mind."
After hearing this, Emperor Jingyuan could no longer hold on. He covered his old face with his palms, cried repressedly, and said tremblingly: "I'm sorry~"
He had owed her this apology for most of his life, and now he finally said it to her face.
The queen still smiled and said: "Since you know you are sorry for me, then use your next life to make amends to me."
She knew that his body couldn't hold it anymore, so she didn't say anything more... There was no need to say too many words between her and him.
The queen gave him the riding whip: "Brother Yuan's things, please get them, otherwise if you wait any longer and he asks you for them but you can't take them out, he will be angry."
After hearing this, Emperor Jing Yuan held the riding whip tightly... This was Brother Yuan's seventh birthday. When he started learning martial arts, he and the queen made it with their own hands and gave it to him as a birthday gift.
Seeing that he was sure of his grasp, the Queen poured two glasses of wine and handed one of them to him: "Today, I will wear a wedding dress and marry you again. After we drink this glass of Hexin wine, we will go down to reunite with Brother Yuan. From now on, things in this world have nothing to do with us anymore. We, a family of three, can live a good life and live the life we want."
There were no more wars, no more court disputes, no more compulsions and compromises, there were just the three of them.
Marry him again?
Tears welled up in Emperor Jing Yuan's dry eyes again: "Thank you, I will never let you down again... Let's go down to find Brother Yuan. He has been waiting for us for many years. We cannot let him wait any longer, otherwise It’s time for him to really piss us off.”
After that, he drank the Hexin wine first.
The queen smiled and drank it all.
The wine contained a highly poisonous substance that the Empress had asked Aunt Wu to prepare. It took effect quickly without causing much pain. After a while, Emperor Jingyuan and the Empress lost their breath.
Zhong Huan knelt down towards their corpses and shouted: "Your Majesty and the Queen have passed away. All the kings, ministers and generals will kneel down to see off their Majesty and the Queen."
There was a roar, and everyone knelt down, including Wei Qi. Even if he won the throne, he still had to kneel to Emperor Jingyuan and wear mourning clothes for Emperor Jingyuan!
