Chapter 256, the Queen Mother's Kindness
"Queen Mother, that incident...... How did you think about it?"
The Queen Mother smiled bitterly: "What else? The crown prince is young, and the Qing Dynasty cannot live without the emperor! The mourning family cannot watch him follow in the footsteps of the first emperor!"
Hearing this, Su Malagu breathed a sigh of relief. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"When the emperor wakes up, the mourning family will go and tell him. The Queen Mother muttered.
"The Queen Mother is merciful. Su Malagu's eyes flashed with tears of excitement.
Hearing such a compliment, the Queen Mother smiled bitterly, "What kind of Virgin Love, the mourning family is the queen mother!" She looked at Su Malagu's withered and embarrassed face, "Su Ma, Su Ma, you can't make a decision yourself, so you have to push it to the mourning family!"
Su Malagu's face was full of guilt, "Old slave...... I'm sorry for the Queen Mother, and I'm sorry for the Queen Mother!" said, Aunt Su Mala burst into tears, "When the Queen Mother is sent back to Shengjing to be buried with Taizong, the old slave will go down to make amends to the Queen Mother!"
The Queen Mother shook her head: "After this battle, do you think that the emperor will fulfill the last wish of the Queen Mother and let her be buried with Taizong?"
Su Malagu looked up at the Queen Mother, and stammered for a while, "Your Majesty, he ......"
The Queen Mother sighed faintly. "The mourning family originally thought that the emperor was different from his imperial father, but he didn't expect that he was just better at forbearance. The Queen Mother's eyes showed a little bitterness.
This night, the Forbidden City had no sleep.
Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong arrived one after another, busy putting on gorgeous shrouds for the Empress Dowager. Because the Empress Dowager is not well ill this winter, in order to be happy, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has prepared longevity materials early in the morning, and now everything is ready-made, and you can use it when you take it.
The two concubines are all old men in the palace, and if the command is determined, they will arrange up and down, and finally at dawn, the mourning hall will be set up in the main hall of Cining Palace.
Concubine Yi stared at the bloodshot eyes and came to the main hall to ask for instructions, "Queen Mother, the emperor has not woken up yet." It is necessary to issue an order to let the relatives of the clan enter the palace to cry filial piety!" If there is a middle palace, you can still ask the middle palace to give an order. Although the fourth concubine holds the power of the middle palace, such a major event, but she does not dare to be specialized.
The Queen Mother pondered for a moment, and then said: "You go to prepare a decree and mourn the seal!"
"Yes!"
The Empress Dowager was funeral, and the concubines and princesses of the six palaces all rushed over, kneeling in Cining Palace and crying filial piety, and even the imperial concubine, who had been lying in bed sickly, was also dressed in filial piety clothes and was supported by the palace maids. Concubine Wen, who is not bone-chilled, cannot be absent.
In this inner palace, the only one who didn't come was Concubine Jia Zhao, who was still in a coma.
Soon, the Fujin, Gege, and women outside the palace also obeyed the Queen Mother's decree and rushed to Cining Palace in plain clothes to mourn.
For a while, outside the Cining Palace, there was a whimper.
A chief eunuch wearing a python suit stepped forward quickly, kowtowed, and said: "The queen mother, all the kings and civil and military officials have entered the palace to mourn, the prince is in charge of the situation, everything is safe, and the special servants have come to report to the queen mother, please rest assured." β
ββThe place of mourning, divided into the former dynasty and the harem, and the internal and external women gathered in the Cining Palace to cry and filial piety. Naturally, the courtiers were not allowed to enter the inner palace, so they arranged to mourn outside the Qianqing Gate. In the land of the outer court, even the queen mother is inconvenient to intervene, Kangxi is in a coma, and the only one who can preside over the mourning of the foreign court is naturally the prince.
"Amitabha!" The Queen Mother recited a Buddha name, and said: "Fortunately, the prince is young and old." Tell the crown prince that the emperor is no longer in trouble, and let him rest assured. β
"Huh!"
The eunuch, the leader of Yuqing Palace, kowtowed, and then retreated.
Concubine Yi was a little puzzled: "Queen Mother, the emperor hasn't ...... until now"
The Queen Mother immediately glared at Concubine Yi, and Concubine Yi immediately swallowed back the unfinished words. Kangxi has not woken up yet, and the imperial doctor said that the emperor vomited too much blood and injured the dragon's body.
The Queen Mother said quietly: "The prince is already sixteen years old, and he has to guard against his family." β
Concubine Yi understood the meaning of the Queen Mother's words, and couldn't help but be surprised, and her face turned half white. The emperor is in a coma, if the crown prince takes the opportunity to have thoughts that he shouldn't have, it will be very bad! When the time comes, the queen mother can still be the queen mother, but what about her? She doesn't want to be a concubine yet! Concubine Yi can't help but pray in her heart to let the emperor wake up quickly!
Concubine Rong was barely calm, "The Queen Mother is too worried, the prince has always been filial, and he will not live up to the emperor's love." β
The Queen Mother muttered: "I hope it's just the heart of the villain." β
At this time, Mama Rui, who was next to the Queen Mother, ran in, "Queen Mother, it's not good!
Concubine Rong sighed: "Another dizzy." β
The Queen Mother couldn't help but feel a little disgusted, "Carry it back to her own palace!"
"Huh!"
The high-ranking concubines and princesses in the palace are all kneeling in the main hall, although they can't cushion the futon, but the front of the palace is at least warm, and they only knelt for a short time before fainting, which shows that the body of the imperial concubine is really bad.
The crying and choking sound in the Cining Palace continued, and a group of women whimpered, like ghosts crying wolves, which made people upset when they heard it.
Concubine Yi Rong Concubine Hui had several body bones, and it was okay to fall on her knees, but Concubine Wen Guifei knelt for a while, and her face turned pale and her body was shaky. Everyone only thought that she was too tired from serving the Empress Dowager before, so she contracted the disease.
But the Empress Dowager is dying, even if she is sick, she has to kneel and cry.
The Queen Mother is a person who knows the inside story, so she can't help but feel pity, so she ordered: "Cook a bowl of ginseng soup for the concubine and send it, her body is ...... I'm afraid it won't be good in the future. β
Mama Rui hurriedly answered, and went down to boil ginseng soup.
Although the queen mother doesn't pay attention to the affairs of the harem on weekdays, when it comes to the critical time, the fourth concubine can't control the scene after all, and she has to preside over the overall situation.
The Queen Mother also carried a heart, and sent a decree to call the imperial doctors who came to treat Kangxi were all detained in the side hall and were not allowed to go out of the palace gate. On the other side of the front, people are also asked to keep an eye on the prince all the time, just in case.
Fortunately, Kangxi was still in his prime after all, although he vomited a mouthful of blood, but after all, his body was strong, and he had a desire in his heart to support him, so in the evening, he regained consciousness.
When he woke up, the Queen Mother and the third concubine almost cried with joy.
Concubine Hui burst into tears, his son is not on good terms with the prince, if the prince ascends the throne at this time, where will there be a way for her eldest brother to live!
Cining Palace side hall.
The Queen Mother burst into tears, "Emperor, the Queen Mother is gone, you have to take care of your body!"
Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong hurriedly brushed and knelt down, and comforted with tears: "Please ask the emperor to take care of the dragon body!"
Kangxi stood up, "I ...... Ahem!" He got up quickly, pulled his heart, and coughed twice.
The Queen Mother hurriedly soothed his heart with her own hands, and said to the third concubine: "Okay, you all step down, there is a mourning family here." β
"Yes, Queen Mother!" As long as Kangxi wakes up, Concubine Hui, Concubine Yi, Concubine Rong, and Concubine Rong will have the backbone, and one heart can be regarded as stable.
The three of them pushed out the side hall, and Kangxi saw that there were no outsiders in the inner room, so he couldn't help but ask: "Huang Eniang, ...... concubine Jia"
Li Dequan, who was waiting next to him, hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, Zhong Cui Palace specially left the imperial doctor to guard it." Although Concubine Jia is in a coma, she has no worries about her life for the time being!"
The Queen Mother frowned, a little displeased that this minion interjected.
Kangxi breathed a sigh of relief.
