Comprehensive film and television: Extreme reversal and inevitable death
Chapter 12: Yixiu trapped in the trial of Chunyuan's death
"Zhen Huan... Rou Ze... You are all the same. I should have known this long ago..."
The emperor suddenly became a little bored. Looking at the flickering suspicion in Zhen Huan's eyes, he stood up, took the handkerchief handed to him by Gao Wuyong, wiped his hands, and then threw the handkerchief casually on the ground.
"Gao Wuyong, pass on my order: Xi Guifei Zhen has violated palace rules and lost the virtue of a concubine. The golden seal and golden book are taken away from you and you are demoted to a commoner. As for the Sixth Prince and the Fourth Princess——"
"Your Majesty, please let Hongzhou and Lingxi go! I know I am guilty and dare not argue any more. I only ask Your Majesty to show mercy and forgive the two children! They are just two children who don't know anything yet!"
"Oh, you still have the nerve to say that. Gao Wuyong, listen to my orders! The commoner Zhen, who committed treason, shall be beaten to death immediately! The Sixth Prince Hongzhou and the Fourth Princess Lingxi have suddenly contracted a serious illness and passed away tonight."
"emperor!!!"
Zhen Huan knelt on the ground trembling all over, but the emperor suddenly stopped. Seeing that Zhen Huan had a glimmer of expectation in her eyes again as he moved, he couldn't help but pull up the corners of his mouth and revealed a slightly cruel smile.
"I forgot to tell you just now that I will send someone to convey the order later to call Old Seventeen back from the border. Zhen, guess what will happen to him?"
"Your Majesty! Prince Guo did nothing wrong, Your Majesty! Please let him go! I beg you! I am at fault, I will take the full responsibility, please let the innocent man go!"
"Innocent? What an innocent one! I almost forgot that all members of the Zhen family will be imprisoned. There is no need to choose a date. They will be executed tomorrow."
"Your Majesty! My mother's family did nothing wrong! My father was dedicated to his duties, loyal to the emperor and patriotic. You cannot let this chill the hearts of loyal subjects! Your Majesty - a tyrant! A tyrant!!!"
Amid the desperate and painful cries of the commoner Zhen, the emperor walked out of the Yongshou Palace, swinging the string of eighteen pink beads in his hand.
Only the wailing and blood in Yongshou Palace were left in the late autumn wind.
I think the maple leaves this year will be very red.
……
After dealing with Zhen Huan and the two bastards, the emperor was still furious. He didn't even take a sedan chair and walked angrily along the palace road for a long time. Suddenly, he turned around and headed towards Jingren Palace.
When the emperor arrived, Yixiu was still kneeling in the small Buddhist hall, silently reciting the Green Tara mantra with her eyes closed.
Even though she heard the emperor walking behind her, Yixiu had no intention of standing up to salute.
This was one of the rare times that Yixiu behaved impolitely since she married him, but the emperor just looked at her silently, and at this simple and quiet little Buddhist temple.
His gaze slowly fell on the small tablet that seemed to be protected by the statue of Guanyin. After a long time, he asked in a hoarse voice.
"Why are there only two words, Honghui, and no Ping'an?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Yixiu, who had been as quiet as a dead person before, suddenly opened her eyes. She turned to look at the emperor, her eyes trembling, revealing the turmoil in her heart.
"Your Majesty...you, you actually know Ping An? That's the nickname I gave Hui'er...I thought...you didn't know..."
Upon hearing this, the emperor clenched his hands behind his back into fists.
Yes, it was impossible for the him in the past to know, after all, he had never paid any attention to the child who passed away early.
But when he saw that Yixiu's tearful eyes finally showed a little light, the emperor felt guilty and a strong sense of guilt surged again.
"I... naturally know this. In those years, I indeed treated you and your son badly. That's why I decided to posthumously confer the title of Honghui and give him the dignity and honor he deserves."
Thinking of the imperial edict that posthumously conferred the title, Yixiu's face suddenly showed a hint of joy.
"Your Majesty has not forgotten my child. I am already very grateful."
After saying that, she stretched out her hand and lovingly stroked the two characters "Honghui" on the tablet, and said softly:
"Hui'er passed away early, and he was not included in the imperial genealogy, nor did he have a great name. Originally... there was no incense offering... I was afraid that he would be bullied by the people below, so I privately used the royal generation order to make a spirit tablet for him. I hope the emperor does not blame me for taking the initiative."
Having said that, even the usually cold-hearted emperor couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat. He recalled the three years he spent with Yixiu while possessed by Honghui.
He knew too well how much Yixiu loved this child.
So, how could he have the heart to blame her?
The emperor stretched out his hand, and with a little force, he lifted Yixiu up from the ground.
"I know that you have a kind heart, so why blame me? I have already decided that when Hongli and his family have children, you can choose one and adopt it to Hui'er."
"emperor……"
The corners of Yixiu's eyes were red, and her excitement was beyond words.
She wanted to bow and kowtow to thank the emperor for his grace, but the emperor held her back and would not let her kneel.
"You and I are husband and wife, there is no need to be so polite."
The couple, who had been separated for decades, held hands and looked at each other at this moment. Yixiu shed tears silently and the emperor's eyes were rarely red.
They seemed to have finally gotten closer to each other, but Yixiu knew very well that this was just a temporary illusion.
She was sure that as soon as the emperor walked out of this door, he would immediately turn back into the mean and ungrateful dog emperor.
So, we can’t relax yet!
After the emperor left, Yixiu put her handkerchief to her eyes again, pretending to wipe her tears, while giving Xiuxia a new order under the pretext of covering up.
"Let all the spies in the palace stop their actions first, and then find a way to have the court officials remind the emperor that he has a son who is raised outside the palace. Remember, these words cannot come from the mouths of our faction."
"The slaves obey."
Watching Xiu Xia turn around and leave neatly, Yi Xiu slowly picked up the cup and drank a sip of tea.
She had just spent a long time crying with the emperor and was almost dehydrated.
