Chapter 966: Attack
Snow fell in the sky again, and after getting this will, the Li family was also preparing court clothes and preparing to enter the palace to worship.
The eldest wife of the Li family was in Fushoutang, while waiting for the old lady to change her clothes, she couldn't help but worry: "My mother has a cold these days, and it is a difficult time, so it is better to take a leave from the emperor and don't go into the palace to work again." It's enough for me and Miao Sheng to enter the palace, you are so old, @ηδΈζ»θ―₯δ½θ° δ½θ° ζ¨ηθΊ«ε. β
The old lady of the Li family didn't think so, she only held on, stood up, and let the eldest lady of the Li family sort out her clothes, while saying: "A few days ago, Miao Sheng was reprimanded by the emperor because of the affairs of Prince Zhuang's mansion, and now the women inside and outside the Manchu Dynasty have to enter the palace to worship the queen mother, and do their filial piety for the queen mother. β
The grandmother of the Li family, who was also helping on the side, couldn't help but complain: "I really don't know what the emperor thinks, it's not his own grandmother who died, he is here to show up something, it costs money and hurts his spirits, and he also takes us to suffer together." β
She didn't know the reason, but the old lady and the eldest lady of the Li family knew it, and the old lady immediately changed her face and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense! You dare to talk about the emperor, you don't want to die? If you dare to talk nonsense like this, don't follow me into the palace!"
The grandmother then kept silent.
Now that Li Qi has been awarded the title of the Ministry of War, she has been stained with the light and has been ordered, and today she will also enter the palace with the old lady and the eldest lady to pay tribute to the queen mother. The eldest grandmother was full of happiness in her heart, after the people sealed the decree, they all followed to participate in some banquets, and she was good, she had just sealed the decree, and the first thing was to follow to suffer.
On this day, the sacrifice that exceeded the rules and etiquette was extraordinarily lengthy, and after the winter, it was a winter snow and a cold, kneeling in the empty hall of Cining Palace, although there were many people, but after all, the old lady of the Li family was old, and her knees could not stand it.
The eldest lady of the Li family saw that the old lady was unhappy, and quickly leaned forward to help the eldest lady, and the eldest lady narrowly stabilized her body and almost lost her honor in front of the emperor.
Xiao Dezi, the chief eunuch standing on the side, saw it, but gently pointed to the one or two little eunuchs beside him, and whispered a few words in the ear of the little eunuch, and the little eunuch hurriedly stepped forward lightly and said to the old lady of the Li family: "The old lady has worked hard, if the body is really unbearable, you might as well go to the side hall to drink a cup of hot tea and rest, and come back later." β
The old lady of the Li family hurriedly said that she didn't dare, and accused herself of being unruly.
The little eunuch said with a pleasant face: "The emperor is kind-hearted and filial, and he is even more lenient to an old lady like the old lady. Lord Li has repeatedly performed miraculous feats, which is also a reward from the emperor. β
Hearing the little eunuch say this, the old lady breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but as long as she could hold on, she would never go to rest, otherwise it would inevitably be true.
The old lady still insisted, repeatedly told her loyalty to the Empress Dowager, remembered the Empress Dowager wholeheartedly, and praised the Empress Dowager. The old lady's sincere appearance made the little eunuch speechless, so she could only go back to Xiao Dezi to report it.
Xiao Dezi blamed him for kicking him incompetently, and was about to reprimand, when he suddenly heard a commotion inside, saying that the old lady of the Li family remembered the Empress Dowager and grieved so much that she fainted from crying.
Xiao Dezi glanced at it, and hurriedly sent someone to talk back to Wei Yanxian, while looking at the unconscious old lady inside, he admired her thoughts, and would rather endure herself fainting, coupled with the dexterous tongue of the eldest lady of the Li family, she would not be disappointed in her great achievements.
Xiao Dezi hurriedly ordered someone to pass on the imperial doctor, and several little eunuchs also hurriedly stepped forward to carry the old lady of the Li family to the side hall, and the eldest wife and grandmother of the Li family also hurriedly followed along.
In the Qianqing Palace, Wei Yanxian knelt in front of the Empress Dowager's spirit, and saw the little eunuch Xiao Luzi who hurriedly ran over from a distance, Xiao Luzi and Wei Yanxian looked at each other, did not speak, but nodded at Wei Yanxian from a distance, Wei Yanxian's originally worried and sad eyes became clear.
Wei Yanxian raised his hand slightly, Xiao Luzi had already stepped forward to help Wei Yanxian up, and all the ministers and princes and princes were still kneeling here to guard, but those older princesses and princes had already dispersed to rest by themselves.
There was also a meal in the imperial dining room, but they didn't understand it. In this winter, what is the reason why the little emperor gathered all their heads and faces in the palace and did not let them go home?
It was already dark outside.
Everyone was chattering and whispering in the side hall, only to see Wei Yanxian leave, and everyone dared to be lazy for a while, and relax their numb legs that were already kneeling.
Wei Yanxian left, and suddenly a little eunuch with a face came in, and gently greeted Li Miaosheng who was kneeling on the side, and motioned for him to come out, Li Miaosheng twisted his eyebrows and was a little puzzled, and the little eunuch only whispered in his ear: "The old woman of the Li family fainted when she was mourning the Empress Dowager, and the imperial doctor is treating her, the emperor is gracious, please go over and take a look." β
When Li Miaosheng heard this, he was also shocked in his heart, and he didn't dare to be ambiguous, so he quickly got up to leave, Li Qi looked at his father with an anxious look, and he was also going to get up and ask carefully, but Li Miaosheng waved his hand, and did not speak, only asked him to kneel well, and did not have to follow.
Li Qi looked forward to it, but he only watched his father follow the little eunuch out of the hall quietly, and he felt a little more apprehensive.
The little eunuch led Li Miaosheng all the way to the harem, today's memorial and mourning, the ministers are in the Qianqing Palace outside, and the women inside and outside are in Cining Palace.
However, looking at the little eunuch leading him farther and farther, it didn't seem to be the direction of Cining Palace. Li Miaosheng sighed in his heart, even if the others didn't know, he still knew the etiquette of avoiding suspicion in the palace. The plaque of Yikun Palace in front of me came into view, this is obviously the queen's palace, no matter how noble the old lady of the Li family is, it is a great luck to be able to go to the side hall to rest, Duan Duan did not come to the queen's palace to rest.
Li Miaosheng stood still and asked: "This father-in-law, is it really the emperor who ordered you to bring me here? If not, you are falsely preaching the holy decree and are guilty of deceiving the king! You should be punished for your crimes! You can think clearly, who sent you? Why did you lead me to the queen's palace? Why did you invite me to the palace?
