Abandoned woman's glory

Chapter 168 Declaring War
Everyone in the room was taken aback. Looking at Nangong, Ling Shaoyu also opened his eyes wide in astonishment. He stared at me for a while without speaking, and then pulled Nangong's sleeve: "You, what are you talking about? She—"

Nangong didn't answer him, and his eyes stared at me, as if he wanted to see the truth from me.

After a moment of astonishment, the entire hall fell into a deathly silence.

……

I don't know how long it took before I heard a trembling voice, saying softly: "Gong——Congratulations to the Empress Dowager."

It was Yu Sui'er, with a joyful expression on her pale face, she knelt down in front of the bed and kowtowed to me. Immediately afterwards, all the court ladies and eunuchs knelt down again, kowtowing loudly.

"Congratulations, Empress Dowager!"

At this time, Ling Shaoyu seemed to have realized it, and hurriedly said: "Prince doctor, hurry up and call the doctor!"

The hall suddenly fell into a panic, some people had already started to remove the things in the room, so as not to affect the pregnant woman; In the chaos, there was only one person standing in front of my bed as if dead, without any reaction.

His complexion, at this moment, could no longer be described as pale.

After a while, the imperial physician finally came, and after apologizing for my sin, he checked my pulse and immediately congratulated me.

"Congratulations to the empress dowager, it's a happy pulse, it's a happy pulse!"

In fact, what Nangong said before made everyone understand that the imperial doctor came to give the emperor the most reassuring statement. At this moment, everyone knelt down to Ling Shaoyu again: "Congratulations, the emperor!"

At this moment, Ling Shaoyu seemed to be a little bit at a loss, not knowing whether to laugh or what to do, but there was a gleam of joy in his eyes, listening to the congratulations from the people around him, although the emperor died young, the empress dowager was pregnant Pregnant, it can be regarded as leaving this bit of blood for the Supreme Emperor, it can be regarded as the great joy in the great sorrow.

At this moment, the entire hall fell into ecstasy.

However, in the center of such a storm, I am the calmest.

I lay on the bed, with a pale face, stretched out my withered hands, and gently placed them on my flat belly—here, there was already a little life?
A child, my child?

"Congratulations to the Empress Dowager, this is the posthumous son of the Supreme Emperor, and it was also left by the Supreme Emperor for the Empress!"

"Yes, ma'am, this is God's will!"

"My lady, please take care of your body, take care of the blood of the Supreme Emperor!"

……

The hand on my stomach was shaking desperately.

No, it is not.

Everyone thought that this was Chu Feng's posthumous child, and everyone thought that the empress dowager's belly must be the emperor's flesh and blood, but only I knew it was not.

Chu Feng, never touched me.

I made love with him after Dongping Palace was injured, my body didn’t allow it, and he just hugged me to sleep every night; and in Juma River Valley, after he was backlashed by the medicine, I could only guard him every night. He, kissing him was the greatest comfort; until later——in front of him, he was raped by Ling Shaoyang...

On this bed, everything I encountered beside him has become my eternal nightmare.

I became afraid of being touched, afraid of the feeling of skin to skin, especially seeing him here, it reminded me of that horrible night, the kind of humiliation and despair followed, and even countless nights, I would wake up from the nightmare Come over, mournful cries resounded throughout the hall.

Chu Feng didn't ask a word about all this, but just endured silently. When I lost my mind and struggled madly, he held me tightly in his arms and let me beat his body to bruises. Bitten his shoulder until it was bloody, but he didn't let go at all.

But also, can no longer hug.

So, I have never had a relationship with him, not even once.

And this child——is Ling Shaoyang's!

It was what he left in my body that night!

As soon as I thought of this, my face suddenly paled like a dead person, the hand subconsciously tightened, exerting a little force on my lower abdomen, and at this moment, a cold hand stretched out, gently grasped my wrist, and pulled it open.

As soon as he looked up, he saw Nangong's face.

He didn't say a word, but I clearly saw the helplessness and hopeless inquiry hidden in his eyes——

is his?

I closed my eyes gently, and a drop of clear tears fell from the corner of my eyes.

And he seemed to have been hit hard, he staggered back a step, took a step back, backed up to a place far away from me, stared at me, there was no expression on that pale face, The whole person seems to have lost heat, like a statue.

After an unknown amount of time, he turned around dejectedly, and walked out without looking back.

Ling Shaoyu stood by and watched this scene. He couldn't understand, but he didn't seem to want to delve into anything further. He walked to the bed and sat down, gently holding my withered hand.

"Xingsi..."

……

"Whether it's the father or the second brother, they all hope to see you persevere. As long as you are alive, there are countless hopes, just like this child, right?"

……

"Give birth to the child well and raise it up, even if it's not for yourself, it should be for this innocent little life."

I slowly opened my eyes, met those clear tiger eyes, and looked at me with hope: "I will love him too. Okay?"

When I was pregnant, I kept thinking, why should I be pregnant with his child?
However, I was pregnant with his child.

The belly is not big yet, except for the nausea from time to time, there is not much reaction, this child seems to be cautious, he is afraid of disturbing others, afraid of disturbing his mother, afraid that his mother will abandon him in a fit of anger because of his drag .

In fact, even if the child is really born, it may not be a happy thing.

The union between me and that man has no love, only humiliation and hatred, and now, he has died for me, but I want to die for his father.Is this a joke from the heavens, or a prank?How can a child born under such circumstances have a normal family and be happy?
Maybe only death can wipe out all kindness and resentment, love and enmity.

However, I am a little hesitant, after all, it is my own child.

Flesh and heart, these days I have been feeling bursts of heartache, it seems that he is begging me.

Subconsciously dragging on like this, time quickly passed.

Two days later, the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor was officially held.

When he was still in Yin, Ling Shaoyu had already arrived at the Yanfu Palace. This is the rule in the palace. He must first kowtow to the spiritual thrones of the ancestors, and then come to greet me, the "elder", and pray for blessings. I watched him wear Putting on a brand-new dragon robe, the whole person is still childish, but the righteousness on the young face and brows makes people feel at ease.

This young man, from the first time he saw him, he could feel the straightforwardness and innocence of him, he seemed to be the purest and purest soul in this land, but now, with the addition of a yellow robe, he became the master of the Jiuzhong Sandian, he What will happen to the future?

"Thinking."

He walked up to me and looked at me with a kind of uneasy light on his face.

"Your Majesty," I looked into his clear eyes and stood up: "Congratulations, Your Majesty."

"Exemption."

He stretched out his hand to support me, as if he was afraid that my weak body would not be able to hold on, and helped me to sit back on the bed slowly, but he did not leave. I looked up at him suspiciously, and saw him slowly He leaned down: "Xingsi."

"Ok?"

"Are you willing to go to the enthronement ceremony with me as the Empress Dowager Yongjia?"

As the Empress Dowager Yongjia, go to the enthronement ceremony?

I glanced at him, this child——is still so innocent, he still remembers what was written in Chu Feng's imperial decree, and the impact of the seal of the Empress Dowager Yongjia on his future governance, he hopes that I can also stand by his side.

but--

I hesitated for a while, but still just smiled lightly and shook my head lightly.

There was a look of disappointment in his eyes, but he said immediately: "It doesn't matter. In fact, I am relieved that you can persist until today. Xingsi, from now on, Qinglong Kingdom will be your real home. I hope you can forget all the unhappy things and live a good life.”

Looking at his face full of hope, I never opened my mouth to say anything.

Ling Shaoyu didn't stay in Yanfu Palace for too long, he still had a lot of things to do before the enthronement ceremony, after Yu Sui'er came in and greeted me, he led the emperor to another place, but I also know that although Ling Shaoyu left , but the number of guards staying outside has more than doubled.

Although he was blunt and reckless, he was not a silly boy.

Time passed little by little, and I could faintly hear the sounds of ceremonies and music coming from a distance. I could think of the grand scene of civil and military officials worshiping in front of the main hall, and also the beautiful scenery in the entire palace. Only here, it is still as quiet as before.

I saw that the maids were a little bit excited, they couldn't help but look out, but without the permission of me and the emperor, they can't go anywhere, looking at those young faces full of expectations, I can't help but think of myself when I was a child, I often looked at the sky outside Wangyun Temple in a trance.

So, I said to them: "I want to sleep for a while, you don't have to serve here anymore, go out and don't disturb me."

The maids couldn't wait for it, they served me on the bed, and then ran out happily one by one.

I smiled bitterly. After all, they are children. In fact, they are also very dedicated on weekdays. They always try to make me drink more soup and eat more food, lest it will affect the fetus in the womb.

Because everyone knows that with this baby, I can survive.

But can I really go on living?
Every night since Chu Feng left, here, I will recall the feeling of lying next to him, and that night, I found the plain silk with the name of the antidote on the bed, until now, I still remember that Time to feel ecstatic.

But I didn't expect that it was me who pushed Chu Feng into that hopeless despair, and it was me who pushed myself to this day.

No - maybe not me!

It's the one who left the prescription!

When I think of him, the faint hatred in my heart rises again, and my thin body seems to be unable to bear the hatred, trembling slightly.

At this time, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a maid came in holding a tray. Seeing my pale face and sweating profusely, she immediately closed the door and walked in, came to my side and helped me: "Queen Mother, are you okay?" Bar?"

"fine."

"Are you feeling unwell again?" She asked with concern, and hurriedly picked up the medicine bowl on the tray and brought it to me, which contained more than half of the bowl of brown medicine soup, which was still steaming: "Your Majesty, drink some medicine first." .”

I took the bowl, but didn't drink it immediately, but looked up at the maid: "Why haven't I seen you before?"

She smiled, her eyes flickering: "This servant is new, the emperor sent me to deliver medicine for the empress."

"Really? Why didn't you go to see the emperor's enthronement ceremony today?"

"Mistress, your body is important."

I glanced at her and smiled: "You are such a good boy."

After finishing speaking, I raised the bowl to my mouth, and blew lightly twice, the young face was barely reflected in the cloudy soup, it was still very calm, but the eyes were staring at the bowl tightly. .

I gently put down the bowl that I had brought to my mouth, and a disappointed expression flashed across her face.

"Why don't you take the medicine, your empress? It will be good for the fetus if you drink the medicine."

"is it?"

I looked at her with a smile: "What is in this medicine, how can it be good for the fetus?"

She froze for a moment, she obviously didn't expect me to ask such a question suddenly, and said falteringly: "In it, um—of course, of course it's a miscarriage medicine, er——for the body—"

I smiled and said: "Since you can't tell clearly, let me tell you. There are safflower, Glauber's salt, and a little musk in it. I don't know if it is good for your health after drinking it, but my child will immediately drink it." Die in front of you, right?"

Her face changed suddenly.

Seeing that she immediately turned around and was about to run away, my face darkened, and as soon as I stretched out my hand, I grabbed her by the throat and grabbed her abruptly. The maid struggled desperately in my hand, making a whimpering sound .

After all, my physical strength was exhausted, and the palace lady struggled out of my hand and fell to the ground. The guards outside immediately rushed in after hearing the movement inside.

"Miss!"

"Someone is going to assassinate the empress, be careful to protect her!"

Seeing that they were going to arrest the panicked maid, I slowly stood up, walked in front of her, looked down at her, and waved my sleeve lightly: "No need, don't arrest her."

The people around were immediately stunned: "Your Majesty, why is this?"

I sneered and looked down at the maid, she was so frightened that she kept shrinking back.

"Go back and tell the person who sent you here that he wants Ben Gong to die, and Ben Gong is waiting for him; but if he doesn't have the ability—" There was a needle-like cold thorn in my eyes suddenly: "The one who did it , this is the palace!"

Everyone looked at me in astonishment, as if they never expected that I would say such a thing, but I waved my sleeves, and the guards didn't stop me, the maid got up and stumbled out.

As soon as I turned around, I responded to the maids who rushed over, "Change!"

They were all stunned, and looked at me blankly: "Queen Mother, where are you going?"

"Enthronement Ceremony!"

When I walked to the front of the Qinglong Hall where the enthronement ceremony was held, the wide square was already full of civil and military officials, and waiters from foreign nationalities came to congratulate. Jiuxiao.

In front of the main hall, a tall figure looked down on all the people of Li.

Ling Shaoyu, the monarch of the largest country in the east, the king above ten thousand people.

He was wearing a glittering golden dragon robe, which seemed to gild his whole body with gold, making him look extremely noble, and that face full of heroism was also dignified at the moment. At that time, I clearly saw a complex look on his face.

joy?sad?have no choice?firm?
And everyone will feel at a loss when facing the supreme power.

Then, he waved his sleeve lightly, and the master of ceremonies immediately said loudly: "The ritual of offering sacrifices to heaven begins!"

There is a high altar in the center of the square, on which there are various grains, cattle and sheep sacrifices, and a lot of dry firewood piled up below. Ling Shaoyu slowly walked down from the hall, took the torch handed by others, and walked towards the altar. That dry pyre a little--

Just hearing a bang, the flames immediately shot up high and straight into the sky!
All civil and military officials knelt down and shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

The congratulatory sound echoed in the Jiuzhong Palace, straight into the sky, like countless voices shouting long live, and amidst such congratulatory sounds, I walked out step by step.

At this moment, everyone opened their eyes wide, watching my appearance in disbelief.

Ling Shaoyu didn't seem to believe his own eyes, he watched me slowly walking in front of him in astonishment, and after a long while, he tried: "Okay——Queen Mother?"

I walked in front of him and said: "The emperor is enthroned today, and I congratulate the emperor."

He seemed to realize something, and looked at me with burning eyes.

I stood up straight, and said solemnly: "Now the five mountains are full of energy, the three lights are shining brightly, the wolves are still stalking, and the world is still in peace. I hope that the emperor and the ministers of the world will work hard to bring order to the future, and the world will share the same virtue, and the world will return to its heart."

"The four seas share the same virtue, and the world will return to its heart?"

Ling Shaoyu looked at me with a bright light in his eyes: "Empress Xie Yongjia!"

Then, under the astonished gazes of everyone, I slowly came back to my senses and looked at the multitude of beings under my feet. There was a face among them, although it was still very calm, but when those eyes looked at me, there were clearly needlepoints. Like a thorn, vicious and piercing.

I smiled proudly and walked slowly towards him.

The courtiers on both sides seemed to have realized something at this moment, and retreated one after another, and I walked up to him step by step, and there was a familiar figure standing behind him, when he looked at me at this moment, that pale face With a nervous look on his face, he took a step towards me.

And at this moment, I have already spoken.

"Lord Nangong."
