After coming out of the Yangxin Hall, the queen suddenly wanted to take a walk. He was raised for several months without being able to leave the main gate of Jingren Palace.
I don't know whether it was because of the serious illness that weakened her vitality, or because she was getting older. The queen felt that she was really old.
Let the others follow far behind, leaving only Jianqiu.
The queen couldn't help but cough twice as the cold wind blew with biting chill.
But when she saw that the dead branches next to her were already stained with green, the queen felt much better.
Jianqiu advised, "My dear, the wind and cold are blowing hard right now, and you can't bear it. My servant will help you go back."
"If you want to see the new green on the branches, Jingren Palace also has it. Or I can ask the flower house to send more. You can see it anytime you want."
The queen waved her hand and said, "No, I am in a good mood right now."
"The sky in the harem is originally square, but Jingren Palace is even smaller. It is the well where you can sit and look at the sky."
The queen walked slowly and carefully looked at everything in the imperial garden.
Suddenly a deer jumped out from the side and walked to the queen's feet. He raised his head, stuck out his tongue, and licked the queen's hand as if to please.
The queen touched the deer's head. The hair was thin and soft. It would become hard after a few months of growth.
"The rare and exotic animals in the Royal Garden were originally supposed to be born in the mountains, but now they can only be kept in the garden for people to watch and enjoy."
"Just like this deer, it can be kept in the imperial garden when it is young, and when it grows up, it will be sent to the imperial kitchen."
"The antlers are sawed off to make antler glue, the deer blood is drained to make deer blood wine, and as for the venison..."
Jianqiu said, "If the queen can't bear it, just tell her to take good care of her."
The queen said, "I don't have any heart. I just think about people like me who do all kinds of evil."
"Will he be thrown into the beast lane in the next life, just like this deer, to be slaughtered to atone for the sins of the previous life?"
Jianqiu said in a panic, "No, no, you had no choice but to do it."
"Besides, you have already regretted it, and now you are trying your best to make up for it. They say that if you put down the butcher's knife, you will become a Buddha immediately. Madam, you have already put it down. The Buddha is compassionate and will definitely forgive you!"
"Besides, there is..."
Besides, there is Brother Honghui, who has been trying to atone for her sins.
Jianqiu's words stopped abruptly and she lowered her head with a guilty conscience. Although she didn't say it out loud, she knew that the queen would definitely understand what she meant.
Deep pain flashed through the queen's calm eyes. She was not worthy of being Honghui's mother-in-law.
"You said you were letting it go, but I just discovered that I have never been able to let it go?"
"I didn't know before that the one I should hate the most is the emperor, but I can't do it."
"And for his own selfish desires, he vented all this on innocent people."
"Now I can do it. I can hate him, but I can't attack him."
The queen also thought that dying together with Big Fat Orange would not only be revenge, but also end their years of love as husband and wife. Let these grievances be settled.
But she also knows that once Big Fat Orange does something bad, the world will be in chaos. I don’t know how many people will die from this by then.
She is not afraid of retribution, but she is afraid that retribution will come to Honghui. That child is too stupid.
What the hell does this useless queen do?
The queen wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. Although she couldn't do it, wouldn't it be okay if someone else did it?
Jianqiu shivered and looked around several times.
Fortunately, the people following him were far away. The trees, flowers and plants nearby were still withered branches, and there were no rockeries or other things to hide people.
Jianqiu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Empress, this is not our place after all. We should talk about some things when we go back."
The queen said, "You have a clear view here. You can't even hide a rabbit within twenty steps. What's there to be afraid of?"
"Walking openly on the road, even if someone sees you from a distance, they won't be suspicious. On the contrary, in the palace, the doors and windows are closed, but you have to worry about the ears on the partition wall."
Jianqiu said, "Your Majesty is wise, but this slave is stupid and didn't expect this."
"Didn't your Majesty say that reciting Buddhist scriptures can make you feel better? If you feel uncomfortable for the Emperor, would you like me to accompany you in reciting Buddhist scriptures a few more times?"
"Your Majesty, he..."
Jian Qiu really didn't know what to say. The Queen threw all her sincerity to the blind man. Did the Emperor really not see it or did he not want to see it?
Jianqiu said firmly, "You still have a slave, and I will always be with you."
"Whatever you ask me to do, I will do it. If, if you really can't swallow that breath, I am willing to do this extremely difficult thing for you!"
The queen held Jianqiu's hand tightly and said, "Thanks to you for staying with me all these years."
"How could I be willing to let you take risks? Don't worry, I promised Honghui that I would never do anything harmful to others again."
"There are many extraordinary people in the palace. We just need to watch from the sidelines. If anyone asks for help, just tell the truth."
