Gong Fei Ji

Chapter 370

He sat on the chair moved by the palace man, and then waved to the jailer next to him.The jailer next to him understood and went forward to release Qi Rong, pushing her to kneel on the ground.

The emperor looked at Qi Rong and said, "I heard that you are not willing to confess? You are tough enough. The Ministry of Criminal Justice has used torture on you once, but you can't even pry your mouth open."

Qi Rong gave a bleak smile, and said: "What is the sage anxious? It's not that the concubine doesn't want to confess, but the concubine just wants to talk to the sage before confessing. The concubine knows that she can't escape death after all. my only wish."

The emperor said: "What do you want to tell me?"

Qi Rong smiled coquettishly at the emperor, then relaxed his whole body, knelt down on the ground, straightened his messy temple hair and clothes, and said: "The concubine wants to talk to the Holy Majesty alone, the Holy Majesty might as well let other people all out."

An official next to him reprimanded: "You are presumptuous, the body of the holy daughter..."

Qi Rong looked at him and interrupted: "What are you afraid of, I am a defenseless woman, and I was injured, can I still be harmful to your sage?"

The emperor stared at her for a while, and finally winked at the people next to him, telling them all to go out.Eunuch Zhang called out worriedly: "Your Majesty..."

The emperor said: "You go out first."

Eunuch Zhang had no choice but to retreat out together with others to salute, but he didn't dare to go far, so he stood guard at the door.

Qi Rong didn't care too much, and then asked the emperor, "Actually, regardless of whether the concubine was thrown into the cold palace, the Holy Majesty pretended to be infected, and the concubine stole the defense map and handed it to the king of Shu, so that the king of Shu, the king of Wu and others could dispel their worries and rebel. , these are all in the Holy Majesty's calculations, right?" Her eyes darkened, and she laughed at herself: "I think that even if the Holy Majesty doesn't love Chenqie, he will at least have a little affection for Chenqie, so Chenqie Only then can I easily deceive the Holy Majesty, I didn’t expect that everything was caused by the concubines.”

The emperor looked at Qi Rong and didn't speak.For this woman, because of her natal family, and because of her ruthless behavior, he has always only hated her, but until today he finally developed a little pity for her.No matter how much the Qi family oppressed him, making him a wimpy emperor, and no matter how many bad things she did, at least her feelings for him were sincere.Because she really loved him, she fell into his trap so easily.

She looked at him, and there was still a tiny spark of expectation in her eyes. He heard her call him "cousin" affectionately, and heard her ask him: "Have you ever loved me, even once, even once... A little bit, even if it's just tempting?"

The emperor asked her back, "What do you think?"

Qi Rong covered her face, with tears seeping from between her bloody fingers, she murmured: "So stupid, I know the answer, but I have to ask it again, and hurt me again." She let go of her hand , continued to despair and sadly said: "But cousin, I love you. I have liked you since I was a child, and I like you so much that I don't want to die."

The emperor said: "Qi Rong, I don't owe you anything. Based on what you have done in the harem these years, my children and concubines who died for no reason, as well as the disabled eldest prince in the hands of you and the queen mother, I will Even killing you a hundred times is not enough."

Qi Rong suddenly stood up from the ground, looked at the emperor and said sadly: "No, I'm not wrong, no woman in the world can bear the man she loves standing next to other women and their children. They all You deserve it, cousin thinks that if I don’t kill them, they won’t come to harm me? I’m just better than them.”

She looked at the emperor sadly, and continued: "Cousin, you have forgotten that I should have been your wife. I was the wife chosen by the late emperor and queen mother for you. They should not rob you from me."
