Chapter 641: Scramble
Chapter 641: Scramble
The fluttering butterflies rested in his heart, and the waves of the sea beat against him, completely igniting the fire that he had been pressing under the lava in his heart.
"Huanhuan ......"
She had never treated him so proactively and explicitly!
Hesitation, hesitation, caution...... To hell with it!
He turned his head, found her petal-soft lips, and kissed it fiercely!
Wei Wan had been sitting at the emperor's bedside for a day, and the emperor was still asleep in his dreams.
The Imperial Physician had prescribed the medicine and was already under house arrest, waiting for the Emperor to wake up and decide whether he would live or die - who let him know this worst secret?
In order to save their lives, no one dared to tell the truth at all, and they only said that the emperor was okay, and as for the heir, they didn't dare to say more than half a word.
Fang Handong took the important ministers of the six departments and three departments, as well as Liang Guogong, Wei Beihou, Anxi Junwang, etc., all waiting outside the Zhaoyang Palace, and even Xi Taishi, who had long been disappointed in the emperor, entered the palace in the second half of the night.
But the emperor didn't wake up, everyone could only wait outside the hall, and no one dared to come to the emperor - the last time the emperor was unconscious, the king of Jin was the closest, but the emperor opened his eyes and first suspected the king of Jin and the ministers who were close, let alone this time...... If the emperor really can't have any more children, then what do they have to be suspicious of these ministers?
It's better to stay away and stay in the palace, not only to show loyalty, but also not to become cannon fodder for the emperor to vent his anger when he wakes up!
Wei Wan's hand gently brushed the corners of the emperor's eyebrows and eyes, feeling that he was so handsome when he was asleep.
The deep imprint on the center of the eyebrows stretched out because of the deep sleep, but it was tightly wrinkled, and the emperor who was in his prime but had gone through vicissitudes didn't know what kind of nightmare he was doing?
When it was dark, someone from the palace came in to light the lamp, and was sent out by Wei Wan with a wave.
When she heard the diagnosis of the imperial doctor, the emperor obviously couldn't accept such a blow, and didn't she feel that it was dark all of a sudden?
Those ambitions, those dreams of being the queen mother, were completely extinguished before they were ignited, such a great change in the world is enough to make people have no love in an instant.
"So, Your Majesty, from now on, we are the ones who can rely on each other, right?"
An emperor who cannot have an heir, an empress who is manipulated by others, are all prisoners of this fate.
She muttered to herself against the emperor's face, but heard the faint sound of footsteps in her ears.
"Didn't you say you weren't allowed to come in?"
She looked up, her gaze sharp.
The palace maid who walked in snorted and lit the flint with a "snort".
Under the dancing candlelight, what appeared was the calm face of the palace maid beside her.
"Queen Mother, Concubine Shu has been waiting outside for a day, don't you want her to come in to see the emperor? At this time, what you have to do is to come forward to preside over the overall situation in the palace, instead of sitting here and waiting, what do you think?"
The anger in Wei Wan's eyes was extinguished by these words.
Yes, Concubine Shu has been waiting outside for a day, what is she waiting for?
said that Concubine Shu cared about the emperor, Wei Wan didn't believe it - in the harem of all dynasties, even if they were mothers and sons, they might not be able to be sincere to each other, not to mention that Concubine Shu had no blood relationship with the emperor, the so-called elders were just face-saving, and the only meaning of Concubine Shu to the emperor was only Xu Chenghuan's aunt.
What she is drawing, I'm afraid it's the phoenix seal in her hand, right?
If the news that the emperor can no longer have an heir spreads, the throne will be shaken like never before, and she, the queen who is destined to never have an heir again, who will pay attention to it?
"Let's go, I'll meet her when I go out to this palace!"
Wei Wan stood up and cheered up.
At this time, whether it was for her status as the queen or for the planning of the Qin Palace, she could not show weakness to anyone.
Concubine Shu waited outside for a day, at first she was uneasy, but the more she waited, the more calm she became.
If anyone is suspicious of her, then she must not be able to stand here properly at this time.
And since she came, there was no reason to go, Concubine Shu quickly calculated in her heart, at this time the emperor was unconscious, in this harem, who would come forward if she didn't come forward to preside over the overall situation?
As for Wei Wan, a fake, as long as the emperor doesn't wake up to protect her, Concubine Shu won't take her seriously.
So when Wei Wan accompanied the unconscious emperor and followed the emperor in despair and grief, Concubine Shu first talked to the waiting ministers.
"Let you adults wait for a long time, the queen mother is young and ignorant, this palace has to take care of more, you adults will go to the West Hall to rest for a while, right?"
Although Concubine Shu's words were a bit suspicious of slandering the queen, in such a situation, it was quite decent, except for Wei Beihou who looked at his sister coldly and guessed her intentions, the other ministers were quite moved.
After all, the weather in May is now in the middle of summer, and the sun can heat people to death, and the ministers are exposed to the gold bricks in front of the Zhaoyang Palace, which is really worse than death.
With a slight sweep of the concubine's eyes, she saw the intention of the ministers, so she smiled and ordered the chief eunuch in her palace to step forward:
"Li Deshou, go and help Taishi Xi to the West Hall to wait for the emperor, Taishi Xi is highly respected, when the first emperor is there, the most respected person is Taishi Xi, if you let Taishi Xi suffer such a crime, even if the first emperor is here, you can't bear it. ”
Li Deshou answered, and walked forward to support Xi Zeyan.
Xi Zeyan, who was in his old age, really couldn't withstand such a scorching heat, he had reached this age, so naturally he didn't have so many taboos, and after glancing at Concubine Shu, he was helped by Li Deshou to go to the West Hall.
The other ministers were persuaded by Concubine Shu to say a few words such as the emperor would not bear to wait so hard for the lords, and they all followed Master Xi to walk away.
Only Liang Guogong and Wei Beihou, as well as Zhen Guogong, did not leave.
Wei Beihou saw that his sister had brought out the style when she was the emperor's favorite concubine, and naturally knew what she was going to do.
There are many people, and he can't say anything, so he can only warn her with his eyes, letting her know that Wei Beihou will never be her support again.
Zhenguo Gong has another taste in his heart - he has an intuition that if the emperor is really gone, with the relationship between his Zhenguo Mansion and Weibei Houfu, Zhenguo Gong's life in the future will definitely not be better, but he really hopes that the emperor is gone.
Otherwise, they will have to obey the holy decree and marry such a slut-like princess Huiya!
Zhen Guogong loved his son and daughter in the past, otherwise he wouldn't have made them look like one by one, but at this time, he really hated it in his heart!
The daughter instructed An Zhulin to kill Mrs. Wei Beihou that time, and as a result, she was innocent, and even the Liangguo Mansion and the Zhongyi Bo Mansion were offended, and the son was better, if he went out to flirt with himself, he could also bump into the eldest princess!
Now, the dignified town of the Guogong Mansion is simply a loss of people in the noble circle of the capital!
At this time, Liang Guogong and Weibei Houdu are not leaving here, and he doesn't dare to go, if the emperor suddenly wakes up, at least he can behave a little, right?
But who knows, after such a wait, he actually waited until sunset and didn't wait for the emperor to wake up!
Seeing the ministers who walked away sitting in the West Hall one by one, full of food and drink, the intestines of the Duke of Zhenguo were all repentant!
When Wei Wan walked out, she happened to look at Shangzhen Guogong's angry eyes, although she quickly retracted after seeing her, but it still made Wei Wan feel uncomfortable - what did he mean by this?
Especially when the main hall was empty before, she felt even more unspeakably angry, the emperor was unconscious, these people were actually nowhere to be seen?!
Under the brilliant lights, the ministers waiting in the west hall rushed out as soon as they saw Wei Wan coming out.
"The queen mother, but the emperor is awake?"
These ministers did not have the tiredness and sleepiness on the faces of Liang Guogong and the three of them, but they were all in good spirits, and some even wiped the pastry crumbs from the corners of their mouths while running.
As soon as Wei Wan saw them like this, her anger immediately turned into a sharp voice that echoed in front of the Zhaoyang Palace:
"The emperor is unconscious, you still have the heart to eat and drink? Are you worthy of the emperor?"
The ministers were speechless for a moment, and they all lowered their heads - they were indeed a little sorry for the emperor......
But the emperor, is he worthy of them? Who did all those court staff scold before?
The ministers' guilt flashed away, silently opposing Wei Wan's questioning.
Wei Wan instantly understood the emperor's anger in the past!
"You people ......"
"Queen Mother, these ministers are the pillars of the country, even if they go to eat and drink, they are to continue to guard the emperor, is it possible, the queen mother wants them to faint from hunger in order to show their loyalty to the emperor?"
Concubine Shu stepped out of the shadows and interrupted Wei Wan's angry rebuke.
She raised her head and looked at Wei Wan:
"If the queen is to blame, then blame the palace, it is the palace that allows the adults to take a rest. ”
As soon as these words came out, the ministers immediately cast grateful eyes.
In the end, it was the concubine that the first emperor valued back then, and she was much more knowledgeable than the young queen's mother!
"Concubine Shu, are you going against the palace and the emperor?"
Wei Wan had already guessed the truth without asking-sure enough, she was taking advantage of her absence to invite people to buy people's hearts!
She's a step late!
Concubine Shu was silent and silently expressed her attitude, but in the eyes of the minister, Concubine Shu was reprimanded by the queen and wronged!
Zhao Shizhen couldn't help but speak out angrily:
"The queen is cautious! The lady lady is just sympathetic to her subordinates, how can she be against the emperor? Besides, the lady concubine is also your elder, and the queen mother is really disrespectful and unfilial to speak like this!"
Wei Wan suddenly felt as if someone had choked her throat, and she couldn't say a word - the Great Qi Dynasty started with Emperor Xiaozong, and she advocated ruling the world with filial piety, she didn't put Concubine Shu in her eyes, but she didn't expect Zhao Shizhen to dare to put this bright hat on her head!
Without waiting for Wei Wan to speak, Taishi Xi's old voice came from behind the crowd, although weak, it attracted everyone's attention:
"The old minister didn't wait for the emperor to wake up, so he went to rest privately, is it the old minister's, when the emperor wakes up, the old minister will accept the guilt, but please ask the queen to tell the emperor, what happened to the emperor at this time?"
The ministers suddenly realized, yes, at this time, the emperor's situation is the most important!
Wei Wan looked at the gaze that stared at her with a pair of eyes, and felt helpless like never before - the emperor had fallen, and sure enough, no one took her in her eyes anymore!
Wei Wan suppressed the anger in her heart and was about to speak:
"The Emperor's ......"
I heard hurried footsteps behind me, accompanied by Liu Defu's surprised shrill voice:
"The emperor is awake, the emperor is awake, looking for the queen!"
The emperor woke up?
Wei Wan's anger and grievances suddenly couldn't be taken care of, she turned around and ran towards the hall, and the long skirt under her feet made her stumble all the way and disappear in front of everyone's eyes.
Concubine Shu's heart was tight-at this juncture, the emperor woke up, what a coincidence!
The ministers had already rushed forward, but were stopped by Liu Defu:
"Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor is only looking for the queen's mother, everyone wait!"
How noisy and lively outside the hall was, the people in the hall could no longer hear.
Wei Wan looked at it at a glance and noticed that the emperor was different.
The look of dead silence like a walking corpse actually appeared on his face, and his slightly narrow eyes, even under the bright lights, there was no light that could reach, and it was so dark that it was like a cold pool that chose people to bite.
"The Emperor's ......"
She walked gently to his side.
The emperor who was sitting on the dragon bed raised his head and looked at her, his voice was stiff and hoarse-
"Cheng Huan, will we never have children again?"
Wei Wan endured the stinging pain in her heart and sat down beside the emperor, held his cold hand, and slowly squeezed out a smile:
"Your Majesty, it's just that the imperial physician said this alone, it's not true that there will never be any more, there are so many famous doctors in the world, the emperor can find someone to take a look again. ”
"Really?"
The emperor seemed to be persuaded by her words, and turned his head to look at her.
Wei Wan's heart settled down a little, and continued:
"Even if there will be no more children, the concubine will never say anything. The concubines will always accompany the emperor......"
It's just that before she finished speaking, she was thrown away by the emperor, and the emperor's eyes were completely shocked:
"What do you say? You don't care? You don't care that we don't have children?"
Wei Wan intuitively felt that she had said the wrong thing, and stood up at a loss:
"The emperor, the concubine, the concubine doesn't mean that, the concubine is just afraid that the emperor will be sad......"
Isn't this comforting him? Otherwise, what could she do? Can she quarrel with the emperor and cry bitterly with the emperor?
"Haha, you don't care, you don't care!
The emperor didn't seem to understand Wei Wan's painstaking efforts at all, laughed and stood up, ran barefoot on the cold floor tiles, and went around every corner of the Zhaoyang Palace, shouting like crazy, as if calling for someone:
"Cheng Huan, Cheng Huan! We have had children, obviously we have! You come back, you come back!"
Wei Wan, who had just gotten up to catch up, sat back on the bed in shock, what was the emperor talking about?
The Emperor ran around for a while, and then wept bitterly into the empty curtain.
"I was wrong, I was wrong...... From the beginning, I was wrong......"
