Chapter 464 (2/2)
The sky and the earth are shrouded by night, and most people have fallen into a dark dream.
In the palace, xiaohuangmen, with a man, galloped forward.
On closer inspection, the man's limbs were bound and could not move.
People with lanterns in front led the way to Xingqing palace. After passing the password, he was put into Xingqing palace.
In the bedroom, the lights are bright.
The emperor is not asleep, he is waiting for a person, a woman.
People come in and they're left on the carpet.
It's Xue Guifei.
Xue Guifei, who was arrogant and tortured for several days when she rebelled that day, is now an old woman with gray hair.
The emperor looked at her and didn't seem to recognize her.
After a careful look, we can see the familiar side from the old facial features.
The emperor hesitated for a moment and said, ”untie her.”
Two little yellow men came forward to untie Xue Guifei.
The emperor did not deprive her of her title. Now she is still Xue Guifei, but she is not as good as a prisoner.
The word ”imperial concubine” is a great irony to her.
Once she was free, Xue Guifei rubbed her aching arm. After being bound for a long time, the limbs became stiff.
She sat on the ground, head down, no longer healthy and straight. At the moment, she is a poor old woman. But with a snake and scorpion heart.
”If you want to see me, why don't you speak?” The emperor asked in a voice, a rare calm.
There was no hatred, no anger, no killing.
Only calm.
Xue Guifei was obviously surprised by the emperor's reaction and could not help looking up at him.
”Ha ha Ha ha... ”
Xue Guifei let out an incoherent laugh.
”What are you laughing at?” Asked the emperor.
Xue Guifei rubbed her swollen wrist. ”I laugh that we are all old.”
The emperor frowned. ”If you just want to say this, you can go.”
”You killed him, didn't you?”
Xue Guifei's turbid eyes became sharp and incomparable in an instant, as if she were rebellious against the imperial palace. A scabbard sword, even if the blade is cut off, still has terrible lethality.
In the palace, from Chen Dachang down, all of them were facing a formidable enemy.
The emperor pretended to be stupid, ”who are you talking about?”
Xue Guifei sneered, ”I'm asking you, did you kill our eldest son? Is it because he was intelligent and respected by the Minister of civil and military affairs that you became jealous. He even took advantage of the child's cold, and killed him. ”
The emperor narrowed his eyes. ”You believe in empress Cui, but you don't believe me?”
Xue Guifei sneered coldly, ”because she is dead, the dead will not harm me.”
The emperor sighed, ”it was an accident.”
Xue Guifei angrily rebuked, ”what accident? It is clear that you killed my son, my eldest son, the cleverest prince. You have a vicious heart. Do you still refuse to admit it
The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, ”what do you want? I gave him his life. I want his life. Who dares to say no? ”
Xue Guifei ha ha ha a smile, ”then I want your life, is also a matter of course.”
”You are presumptuous The emperor denounced.
Xue Guifei sneered, ”I have nothing to say. It's just that God doesn't open his eyes, and even allows you to live to this day. ”
The son of heaven's anger rose, ”I will allow you to live to this day with my old love in mind. Don't be ungrateful. ”
Xue Guifei's face was cold, her lips were pursed and her expression was serious.
”Sire, let's make a deal.”
”You are not qualified to deal with me. Don't forget who you are. You're just a prisoner. ”
Xue Guifei laughed, her eyes moved, and she could still see her old style.
”Your Majesty doesn't want to know who was behind the abduction? Don't want to know how many people and horses are hidden in the dark? Don't you want to know how the prince died? ”
The emperor's expression changed dramatically, and the atmosphere in the bedroom suddenly became suffocating.
The air seemed to solidify.
”You know?””I don't know all of them, but I can show your Majesty the right way.”
”What do you want?”
”Let go of the king Zhao and the Xue family. The Xue family didn't participate in the palace change. The Xue family was just implicated by me
The emperor sneered, ”without the help of Xue family, the king of Zhao can't even take a soldier from Jingxi camp.”
”What do you want?”
”Tell me what you know, and I'll take care of it.”
Xue Guifei slowly shook her head, ”unless your majesty orders to exempt Xue family and Zhao Wang's family, my concubine will not say a word. I might as well tell your majesty that the only one who knows these secrets is my concubine. If I die, these secrets will also be taken to the underground and become the secrets that cannot be solved
”Are you threatening me?”
”I'm just negotiating terms with your majesty. To his majesty, it is just a trivial matter to let go of the Xue family and the Zhao Wang family. As for me, when I tell you all the secrets, I'll give myself up to you. ”
The emperor took a deep look at her, ”you know, I have countless ways to force you to open your mouth.”
Xue Guifei's eyebrows and eyes moved. ”Your Majesty can try to find out a truth from my mouth. We can do it again
”You...”
Xue Guifei held her head high. At the moment, she was very powerful.
Even if you are a prisoner, you should be a prisoner who controls the whole situation.
