The Marquis Is Innocent

Unlike Zhu Shi, when the grandmother said these words, the tone of voice was not much different from usual, and she did not look as excited as she should be.

If there was anything different from usual, it was that Xiao Qiao showed an almost proud look in the light from her single eye.

These heroes or heroes have created this troubled world, and this troubled world has also made new heroes and heroes.

Wei Shao's grandmother really deserves to be proud. With Wei Shao, a grandson who became a hegemon in a weak year, Xiao Qiao thought to himself, not to mention that he has captured Jinyang now. From a military point of view, Jinyang is by no means just a city. The incorporation of Jinyang into Wei Shao’s hands does not mean that he is only truly uniting the north and becoming a veritable northern hegemon. Most importantly, he has obtained This treasure land has the title of the granary of the world.

Having sufficient food supply guarantee is the biggest guarantee for plotting the Central Plains hinterland in the future. Chen's father and son are sitting on the treasure land, but in the end they make wedding clothes for others, and they can only blame themselves for their incompetence.

The future, which can be called a nightmare, has been haunting her repeatedly since the first day she came to this world. With the appearance of the woman named Su Ehuang and Wei Shao's unification of the north, it is following the predetermined trajectory. , step by step into reality.

If nothing else, her husband Wei Shao should still be the emperor in the end.

This conclusion is not just based on her own nightmare or the mysterious destiny, but after she arrived at the Wei family, in Wei Shao, a man, she saw with her own eyes the vigorous ambition, abundant energy, The arrogant abandon of me, and the perseverance to advance step by step.

Such a man can never reach the end in the turbulent times, because of accident.

Therefore, Xiao Qiao's heart is inevitably more doubtful. The wife of Wei Shao in this life is no longer Da Qiao. Wife Jiyi, Su Nu, who finally appeared alive in front of her with this trip to Zhongshan, will still follow the trajectory of her previous life, as she knows, and finally stand side by side with him and become a woman. The founding emperor of this beautiful country?

All his knowledge of his previous life came to an abrupt end after Wei Shao proclaimed himself emperor, Da Qiao committed suicide, and Su Nu was established.

She suddenly wanted to know that Wei Shao in the previous life, after becoming emperor as he wished, joining hands with his lover, and finally destroying the Qiao family he hated so deeply, when he accidentally remembered the one who had been treated coldly all his life by him, even The poor woman who can't enter the Wei family's mausoleum even after her death, will there be such a trace of pity and guilt in his heart of stone?

What will be his final outcome?

…

(Past life.)

Three months ago, Wei Shao's army invaded Luoyang and forced into the Suzaku gate of the imperial palace. Xing Xun, who had previously abolished the last emperor of the Han Dynasty and declared himself emperor by facing the south, was surrounded on all sides and had no way to escape, and finally ended up in the North Palace.

The fire in the North Palace burned for three days and three nights before it subsided.

Half a month later, Wei Shao sacrificed to the northern suburbs and told the Queen of Heaven that he would be enthroned in the Hall of Long Lives of Qianqiu and built the name "Yan".

This year, when he was in his early thirties, he became the new owner of Luoyang, the imperial capital with a population of one million.

He set up the ancestral temple, the ancestral hall, and the provincial bureau, rewarding merit and punishing crimes, but the harem remained vacant.

In his current harem, there are two women.

One is Da Qiao, the first wife he married ten years ago.

The other one is his favorite girl Su who has been with him for many years.

He had unified the north many years ago, and now the Central Plains and Luoyang's warlords have all been wiped out, leaving a few fish that slipped through the net, but he didn't take it seriously.

The only piece of territory that could get into his eyes, but had not yet entered his hands, was Yong Lao.

Two years ago, in order to resist the tyranny of Xing Xun, some courtiers loyal to the Han Dynasty welcomed Liu Yan, the son of the former Prince of Langya, to Yongdu, and established a small Han Dynasty court with the capital in Yong.

As long as the small court of Yong is taken down, the whole world will be in the hands of Wei Shao.

In fact, a few days after Wei Shao had just invaded Luoyang and Xing Xun*, the messenger brought the will of the small court, named him the Great Prime Minister, the Great Sima, and invited him to go to Yongdu to welcome the emperor and drive back to Luoyang, and serve the orthodox Liu Yan is the emperor of the world.

Wei Shao laughed at that time, and everyone could see his contempt and arrogance.

He said that if God does not take it, he will be to blame.

Half a month later, he launched an army to attack the small court.

Before he sent troops, he still didn't make Da Qiao as his queen, nor did he change his favorite Su Nu as his queen, as others had guessed.

He only did one thing. The Su woman was named Mrs.

This is the highest-ranking concubine under the queen in the harem.

Then he left Luoyang and went to Yongdu himself.

The day after he left, Su Ehuang came to the Chongde Hall in the North Palace.

…

The Luoyang Palace is magnificent, divided into two palaces, the north and the south.

The fire that Xing Xun ignited half a month ago destroyed most of the palace in the North Palace, and now only some of the remaining buildings remain. Wei Shao was eager to destroy the small court, so he did not order repairs immediately. He only ordered the few palaces left from the fire to be cleaned up and used as temporary residences.

Su Ehuang lived in the most gorgeous Yanxiu Hall. Xing Xun and the concubines and palace maids who survived by chance in the former Han emperor's harem were all placed in Zengxiguan in the east, while Da Qiao was placed in the most remote place, Chongxi. De Temple.

She has been sick for a long time. There was only an old woman beside her who served her medicine.

A long time ago, before she got married, in her hometown of Dongjun, together with her younger sister Xiao Qiao, she was called "Shuang Qiao" by the people of the time because of her beauty.

Now that she is twenty-five or six, she was supposed to be the most beautiful time in a woman's life, but she is thin and out of shape. The hand resting on the bed had only a layer of skin on the back of the hand where the blue blood vessels crawling like a cobweb could be clearly seen inside. Only when he opened his eyes, from the light in those eyes, he could still vaguely find a trace of the remaining beauty of the past.

Big Joe felt very thirsty. She has been thirsty for a long time. She knew that the old woman was unwilling to serve her, and just wanted to struggle herself to pour water. But she couldn't get up. All the strength in her body seemed to have left her inch by inch.

She called the old woman again in a low voice. The old woman finally walked in, and her footsteps made a harsh pattering sound on the light brick floor.

The old woman poured a cup of ice-cold water and brought it to the front of the bed, where it slammed heavily on the edge of the bed.

Half of the water splashed out, wetting the bedding.

"The maid is busy decocting medicine for you! If it's not a big deal, it's better not to cry."

The old woman muttered angrily, turned around and left.

Although the woman who had been assigned to serve her was nominally the direct wife of Emperor Dayan, everyone knew that the emperor had never seen her.

It was even said in private that the emperor not only didn't look at her, but also never touched her finger at all for so many years.

It's a shame to live as a woman to do this.

…

Big Joe struggled to sit up slowly.

Body is too thin. Sitting up like this, I can feel the pain.

When she stretched out her hand to hold the water that she had finally summoned, she suddenly felt as if a light was shining in front of her eyes, and the dim and dull palace was suddenly illuminated by something.

It was a woman who was walking towards her bed.

The woman is in her thirties, but she is well-maintained and her skin is smooth and plump, which is in stark contrast to Da Qiaozheng on the bed. She wears a complicated and delicate nine-ringed bun, with a clear phoenix swaying in her hair, and the glazed jewel string hanging down from the phoenix's mouth follows her steps, making a slight and pleasant rustling sound. For this bun alone, it took two maids to comb her for half an hour at the same time; she was wearing a gorgeous kesi purple dress with flowers and phoenixes. This kind of kesi brocade has complicated patterns, and it is very precious today. Only one of the 20 female reds can be woven in a year. Men of status are usually only used as a belt decoration. She used it to make a whole dress. The pair of embroidered shoes on her feet, the soles are three inches high, they are made of gold thread, and the uppers are covered with pearls that are the same as the smiles. The left and right toes are decorated with a lifelike golden jade butterfly, which moves with her footsteps and has butterfly wings. It trembled slightly, making it hard to look away.

She is Su Nu, Wei Shao's favorite concubine, and now the lady in the harem, and the only woman by Wei Shao's side for so many years.

Seeing Madam Su, the old woman immediately showed a flattering look on her face, and knelt down and kowtowed.

Emperor Su E asked the old woman to go out. The old woman withdrew. Only Da Qiao and Su Ehuang were left in the palace.

Su Ehuang walked to the bed, sat down, picked up the ice water with her own hands, and delivered it to Da Qiao's mouth, smiling: "I heard that you are seriously ill. Your Majesty Zhengyong, you and my sisters It's a fate, I'll come and see you."

Big Joe didn't move.

Su Ehuang glanced at her chapped lips and frowned slightly.

A woman in her thirties, although she is well maintained, this small inadvertent movement still caused several fine lines of different lengths on the skin between her eyebrows and the corners of her eyes.

She said, "How do these slaves serve! You have the guts to bring such ice water to you to drink in winter!" After speaking, she threw the cup. The bamboo-carved cup was slammed on the ground, making a strange sound of bone and rolling forward, and a pool of water was also sprinkled on the blue bricks on the ground.

Big Joe remained motionless.

Su Ehuang looked at Da Qiao for a moment: "Before your Majesty left the imperial capital, you made me your wife, you should know that?"

Da Qiao naturally didn't know. No one told her. She doesn't care about that either.

"Your Majesty should have done one more thing. He made you a queen. But he didn't. Your Majesty can't make you a queen. But as long as you are alive for one day, I can't be your majesty's queen."

In the end, she sighed and looked at Da Qiao with sympathy and pity: "So, I really don't understand, why are you still lingering on and refusing to die?"

…

Yes, why are you still lingering and refusing to die?

Big Joe also asked himself.

At this point, the one who still supports her to live may be the moonlight that still lingers in the back garden of Dongjun's house and the man with one green eye who watched him leave under the moonlight.

…

Seeing that Da Qiao should not respond, Su Ehuang stared at her.

"Qiao Nu," she said in a tone of gossip, "in this world, everyone has what they want. Men are high-ranking officials, honor their ancestors, and women's husbands and wives are honored. Marry a good husband. But I don't think you should know that there is nothing in this world that you can get at your fingertips. Even if God gives it, you have to get it yourself. I know you must hate me very much in your heart, but you don't know, what I got today How can everything come so easily?"

Her red lips slowly revealed a smile, and then she sighed softly, sounding a touch of self-pity.

"Originally, I never had a chance to talk to anyone about these words in my entire life," she said, "but for some reason, I suddenly want to talk to you now."

She was silent for a moment, as if caught in the memory of the past.

"I was born in the Houmen of Zhongshan, and I have known His Majesty since I was a child. I am two years older than him. When I was fourteen, I already knew in my heart that he would become my husband in the future. It is a pity that the heavens did not go according to people's wishes, and the Wei family suffered a change. When I was seventeen, my parents married me to Liu Li. I was naturally reluctant. I only knew that even if I disobeyed my parents, His Majesty would marry me, but the Wei family would not accept me because I could not Your Majesty's grandmother is happy, but Your Majesty has great respect for her grandmother..."

When she mentioned "His Majesty's Grandmother", there was a bit of a weird expression of disgust on her lips, and then disappeared.

"After weighing, I listened to my parents and married Liu Li. This incompetent Liu family man, I devoted myself to him for nearly ten years. In the end, not only did he not ascend to the throne of God, but he died uselessly. I became a new widow and became the master. The old man Xing Xun of Luoyang was greedy for my beauty and wanted to accept me, but I would not commit myself. At that time, when I returned to Zhongshan, after many setbacks, I finally saw His Majesty's face again..."

She stared at Da Qiao: "When we met, His Majesty asked me in amazement, why was my voice destroyed? I said, I know His Majesty loves my singing voice. Before I got married, I poisoned myself with drugs. Even if I had to marry someone else, I couldn't. I can keep my body for His Majesty, but I can keep my voice for His Majesty. His Majesty touched it at the time. He didn’t know that my throat was only caused by illness that year and I took medicine by mistake…”

"Qiao Nu, from that moment on, I knew that His Majesty was aroused by me. When His Majesty married you, he was twenty-two years old. There was no concubine in the room. Dao, why does a man in the world have a beloved woman and still have three wives and four concubines, but a woman has to be her husband alone like a jade? I have cut off contact with him for many years, why is he not close to women? It should be because I remembered my unintentional love back then. Speaking of words, this is how women in the world are treated like a broom..."

Su Ehuang laughed, with a slightly smug look in his eyes.

"Even if I shared things with him back then, so what? He was only a teenager at the time, and in his heart, he will never forget what my sister, who is two years older than him, left him for the rest of his life. What's more, he was seriously injured and his mother was sick. I stayed with Wei's family for half a year and worked tirelessly to take care of his mother and son every day? Just because of this kind of affection, I committed a serious crime. However, he can't be cruel to me either."

Da Qiao looked at her blankly.

However, Emperor Su E's eyes gradually turned cold.

"Qiao Nu, your life is also sympathetic. With your current state, I didn't want to do anything to you. It's just unfortunate that if you don't die, your majesty's post will probably hang in the air forever. I'm not impatient. I can't wait that long. But do you know that the post is vacant, but I was named Mrs. This is a kind of humiliation to me? I have tried my best for today. What have you done, the enemy of the Wei family? As the daughter of your majesty, you will occupy your majesty's wife for ten years? It's just because your majesty's grandmother married him in the door! Only when you die, majesty will make me queen."

"So, why are you still unwilling to die?"

Finally, she stood up, looked down at Da Qiao with cold eyes, and said slowly again.
