Chapter Ninety-Eight: Adoption

The imperial doctor was scolded and hurriedly went to prescribe medicine to feed the six princes, some of the Taiping prescriptions that were not hindered, although the cause has not been found out, but why do you have to prescribe medicine first, first appease Your Majesty.

Qi Zongwen ordered someone to interrogate, beside the six princes, Concubine Yao, and the queen, but anyone who has dealt with the six princes must ask clearly, and before the trial, they will play five boards first, and then ask again.

But in the end, no one harmed the six princes.

The six princes were drugged and fell asleep crying tired, and the air pressure in the main hall of the Ditai Palace was still terrifyingly low. "So, the sixth prince is sick today?"

"Yes. ”

"Let's go down. ”

Only then did the queen say with grievances, "Your Majesty can't trust the concubines in this inspection." ”

"Didn't you see that everyone of us checked?" Qi Zongwen said, "The child is so decent, how can he be sick." "How can one not be suspicious.

"Your Majesty said that if the matter of illness could be decided by people's will, then there should be no sickness in this world a long time ago. The queen said, "Isn't it normal for a child to have some minor pain and illness?" ”

"Hello, with the six princes. Qi Zongwen said to Concubine Yao, "Let the new secretary transfer a few nurses to come over, I don't know whose reason it is, always be careful." ”

"Yes. Concubine Yao's crying eyes were like walnuts.

"Your Majesty, the child was tossed back and forth when he was sick, so let's stay in the Ditai Palace. The queen proposed.

Concubine Yao raised her head violently, "Niangniang-" The voice was so sharp that it startled everyone present.

"What's your reaction?" the queen said, covering her chest, "This palace is also for the good of the six princes." ”

"You mother, I don't know that I feel sorry for him tossing back and forth, and this palace is still distressed. ”

"Niangniang, let the concubines take the six princes back to take care of it. Concubine Yao said in a sneering voice, "Niangniang's palace affairs are busy, and Duke Lijia is mainly taking care of her, so don't let the six princes make trouble here." ”

"The people taken care of by Ditai Palace are sufficient. The queen said, "If the imperial doctor says a good word, the palace will let you take the six princes back." ”

". Concubine Yao begged.

"Let Concubine Yao take it back and take care of it. Qi Zongwen opened his mouth and said, "After all, she is the biological mother, mother and son are connected, if you let the six princes live with you, she is afraid that she will not go back." ”

"Concubines can't live in Ditai Palace. ”

"The imperial doctor will follow, and I will report the situation of the six princes tomorrow morning. Qi Zongwen said. Concubine Yao hurriedly kowtowed to thank her, she was helped up, and hugged the figure of the six princes retreating, as if she was fleeing from the tiger's den.

"Your Majesty, look at Concubine Yao's demeanor, as if the concubine wanted to harm her. The queen said, "Can the concubines be convicted?"

"You can't do it, what do you always call the six princes to come to the Ditai Palace?" Qi Zongwen said, "It's no wonder that such a young child, on such a cold day, runs back and forth like this every day, and doesn't get sick." ”

"Your Majesty. The queen looked at Qi Zongwen and said, "The concubine just looked at the cuteness of the six princes, and she liked it in her heart, so she wanted to see him more." ”

"The concubine is a blessed one, she failed to give birth to a prince for His Majesty, looking at the prince born by others, I want to see more, hug more, did the concubine do something wrong?"

"The concubine is the queen and the mother of all the harem princes, shouldn't the concubine be good to them?"

"What you are thinking, you know in your own heart. Qi Zongwen shook his sleeves and said, "I don't want to say it too clearly, it's to save you the face of the queen." ”

"Your Majesty makes it clear, what is the concubine's mind?" the queen suddenly knelt down and said, "Killing people is not enough, Concubine Yao's affairs back then, the concubine did something wrong, for so many years, the concubine has not taken a wrong step, didn't Your Majesty see it? The concubine really didn't work hard at all." ”

"Your Majesty now wants to accuse the concubine of having ulterior motives, yes, the concubine has ulterior motives. ”

"The concubine is also afraid that she will become the next Empress Dowager Wu, even if she ascends to the position of the Empress Dowager, her life is still boring. ”

"Your Majesty, shouldn't the concubines be afraid?"

"At your age, why do you think about the future?" Qi Zongwen said with a headache, "Besides, you still have Lijia, and you are also a person with a daughter, if someone else takes your daughter away, will you not remember it?"

"But the concubine is a mother-in-law. The queen said, "The palace is full of concubines' children, Your Majesty keeps talking about the decency of the queen, have you really given the decency of the queen to the concubine?"

"No one's housewife can hold a concubine and have children. ”

"There is no such thing in the etiquette of any dynasty. ”

"Royal is different from elsewhere. Qi Zongwen patted the table and said, "It's the queen mother, and she didn't say that she wanted to support the prince of the palace." ”

"The concubines didn't want to hug the princes of the palace, the concubines, the concubines just wanted to see more of the six princes. The queen cried, "Why doesn't Your Majesty satisfy your concubine even this little request?" ”

"Your Majesty, if the concubine reaches the age of thirty and has no children, has Your Majesty thought about the future of the concubine?

"Your Majesty, have you ever thought about how to justify yourself for the concubine?"

"The more you talk about it, the more you lose it. Qi Zongwen broke the tea cup on the table, "This matter has nothing to do with the concubine, how can it be involved with her." ”

"Is it in the eyes of His Majesty, what the concubine does is wrong. The queen sat on the ground and said with an extremely desolate smile, "The concubine knows, and the concubine will not do anything that bothers His Majesty anymore." ”

"Concubine, send your majesty. ”

Qi Zongwen said no, didn't say no, got up and hurried away.

Mama Cui came to help the queen up, "My mother, what you just said is too bold, what if Your Majesty is really angry?"

"Your Majesty will not. The queen pressed the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief, Fang Cai really cried, her eyes hurt a little, "Your Majesty is a soft-hearted person, even if you don't like this palace, this palace is also his wife, the mother of his daughter, this palace has said that she is so miserable, and your majesty is not good to be strict with this palace." ”

"Since it has come to this point, the six princes, this palace is a must. ”

"Then will Your Majesty agree?" asked Mama Cui.

"If Qin Yunyi can't have another child, what do you think Your Majesty will do? Your Majesty will definitely raise a child for her. The queen sighed and said, "What's wrong with that palace wanting to raise a child." ”

Qi Zongwen walked to Ronghua Palace, until he reached Ronghua Palace, the depression between his eyebrows did not dissipate, Qin Yunyi looked at him, "Could it be that the illness of the sixth prince is very serious?"

"It's not serious, I've already asked Concubine Yao to take it back to the palace to take care of it. Qi Zongwen said, "It's just that the incident happened suddenly, and I was a little surprised." ”

"Then why is Your Majesty still so worried?" Qin Yunyi reached out to press his brow.

"Yun'er. Qi Zongwen took Qin Yunyi's hand, "In the future, if a low-level concubine gives birth to a prince and a princess, I will bring it over to you to raise, okay?"

"Not good. Qin Yunyi looked at him squarely, "What's wrong with Your Majesty, why did you suddenly talk about this?"

"How bad. Qi Zongwen grabbed her waist and said, "Raise a prince for you, and when he grows up and opens a mansion, he can take you out to live." ”

"I know. ”

"You said you were going to die with me. ”

"But how could I be willing to let you die with me. Qi Zongwen smiled and said, "I think you can live a long life." ”

"Your Majesty's heart is good, but Your Majesty has not thought about it, when the time comes, I want to die, and no one can stop me. Qin Yunyi said.

"So, I'm going to give you a child. Qi Zongwen said, "You watched him grow from a meat ball to a handsome young man, and you have a concern for him, and you have a concern for the world." ”

Qin Yunyi was stunned when she heard this, she looked down at Qi Zongwen, it turned out that he thought the same way, just like her cowardly thoughts, worried that if she had a child, she would be concerned about the world and didn't want to die.

Qi Zongwen's eyes looked directly at her, "I want you to live well." ”

"If there is no you in the world, I don't want to live. Qin Yunyi put his hand along his eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty is good for me, I know." ”

"But Your Majesty, it's Your Majesty. ”

"The son of the much-loved concubine, will his existence really not cause oppression in the hearts of the princes?

"Your Majesty loves me, doesn't he love children?"

"Of course I won't be a bad adoptive mother, but I can't guarantee that I really love that child as much as my biological mother. Qin Yunyi said, "Low-level concubines have always had meritorious births, and they also want to be promoted." Does Your Majesty want to leave a mother and a son for me?"

"Of course not. Qi Zongwen hurriedly said, "I want to give you a support, not to create a murder for you." ”

Qin Yunyi smiled, held his face and kissed him twice, "Your Majesty is the best." ”

"So what are you going to do? Qi Zongwen sighed.

"I have Your Majesty. Qin Yunyi said, "Your Majesty accompanies me, better than any child, and is reliable." ”

"I'll Someday,"

Qin Yunyi covered his mouth with his hand, "Your Majesty is prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, don't say unlucky words." ”

"Anyway, I just hope to live one day less than Your Majesty. ”

The sixth prince slept peacefully all night, and the imperial doctor couldn't find any symptoms, so he said okay, Concubine Yao held the child all night and didn't let go, and the palace maid looked at her worriedly, "Niangniang." ”

When someone from Ditai Palace came to ask how the six princes were doing, Concubine Yao was even more nervous, hugged the child tightly, and the palace maid persuaded her, "Niangniang, Niangniang, the queen just asked, didn't say that she wanted to bring the six princes over." ”

"No, she just wants my baby. Concubine Yao said in horror, "She just wants my child, she just wants my child." ”

". ”

"If the Ditai Palace still wants to take the six princes in the future, continue to feed the six princes to eat goat milk powder. Concubine Yao made a decision and said that the six princes would cry when they ate goat milk powder, but eating goat milk powder is not harmful to people's bodies.

"But the six princes are pitiful when they cry. The palace maid said.

"It's better than our mother and son being separated. Concubine Yao said, "If the queen doesn't give up, I will never let go." ”

"Your Majesty will not come by the Empress. The palace maid said, "Don't you see that Your Majesty asked Niangniang to bring back the six princes?"

"But don't you know if the Empress will convince Your Majesty?" said Concubine Yao, "Your Majesty will not have a clear statement for a day, and the Empress will still work like this now." ”
