Chapter 126, warn the Queen Mother
Three days later, the emperor took his concubines and princesses back to the Forbidden City.
After the mighty status of Luanyu, it is the queen's phoenix car, the concubine's Luanche, and the nobles can only take the ordinary carriage, according to the rank, the loud concubine Qingluan ceremonial car followed closely after the queen and the concubine, there are guards in front of the ceremonial car, standing melon, lying gourd each two, eunuchs holding red phoenix flags, golden umbrellas, golden festivals, whisks followed, a golden seven phoenix crank canopy is the most bright - this canopy is only on the concubine position, the concubine also has, the queen's canopy is a bright yellow nine phoenix crank canopy, a higher level.
All the way back to the palace in the afternoon, only the queen can follow the emperor to the south of the Forbidden City, the Suzaku Gate, the concubines go to the wrong door, this is not to mess with the rules of respect and inferiority.
As soon as he returned to the palace, the emperor went straight to the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace, and the queen who went to the back foot also specially called Concubine Xian and Ming to go to Cining Palace together to kowtow to the Empress Dowager.
Therefore, Cining Palace was quite lively for a while, and the queen knelt down dignifiedly: "The concubine returns to the palace, and specially brings the concubine and concubine Shu to the emperor's mother!"
The Queen Mother was wearing a daily purple Tuanshou pattern brocade flag dress, her old face was very cold, and she said: "The queen has a heart, let's be even." ”
"Thank you, Queen Mother. He thanked the queen after him, and then got up, but continued to bow his head as an invisible person. This Cining Palace, she really didn't want to come, but the queen suddenly called someone to Chuxiu Palace to send a message to her to go, and Hao Ming had to drive the ducks to the shelves.
The emperor came one step after another, and at this moment he sat next to the queen mother, and said with a look: "Since the queen is also here." Listen to it if you don't let it go, and talk about how to deal with it. - The emperor only said "deal with", which shows that he does not intend to dispose of Concubine Hui as the Queen Mother wishes.
The queen is a smart man. hurriedly smiled and said gently: "Since Sister Guo Jia is fine, the concubine naturally feels ...... You may wish to be lenient and lenient. ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, her old face suddenly sank: "Guo Jia's leg was bitten not lightly, but fortunately, the child in her womb is fine, otherwise the mourning family will never spare her life!!"
Ming's eyelids drooped, didn't the Queen Mother want to put Concubine Hui to death? Yes. When she heard about this in the Old Summer Palace, she felt strange, how could the Empress Dowager's city government bite Guo Jia's family with a dog? The Empress Dowager must have wanted to protect the child in her womb. But if it is kept, Concubine Hui's crime will be a big deal. Could it be that this is not the Queen Mother's action?
When the emperor heard the Queen Mother's words, he was relieved. Huang Eniang said so. How about a fine of half a year as a light punishment?"
The Queen Mother's face sank: "The emperor favors the Gao family, and there should be a limit!!"
The emperor's eyes were cold, and he asked, "What does the emperor want to do?"
The Queen Mother's face was straight, and she raised her voice: "The emperor only thinks that it was an accident caused by a brute, but the mourning family investigates carefully, this matter is not so simple!" Saying that, the Queen Mother ordered: "Bring the things up!!"
I saw Chang Shun, the leader of Cining Palace, come up with a small box of incense powder.
The Emperor frowned. "What is this?"
The Queen Mother said coldly, "The mourning family has already asked the imperial doctor to check it." The incense powder in it, it doesn't hurt if people smell it, but if the beast smells it, they will go crazy! Guo Jiashi was bitten by Concubine Hui's dog, and the mourning family felt puzzled, the cats and dogs in the palace have been carefully trained, how can they bite?! Unless they smell something that shouldn't be smelled!" After saying this, the Queen Mother paused, and then said: "This thing was searched from Chengqian Palace!"
The emperor let out a long sigh, and he looked deeply at the angry look on the queen mother's face, "Huang Eniang, this is the end of the matter." ”
"What?!" The Queen Mother was stunned, and there was a bit of disbelief in her eyes, "Does the emperor know what he will say again?!" Now that everyone has obtained the stolen goods!!, does the emperor want to protect the Gao family?"
The emperor raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, "Huang Eniang, Guo Jia's pregnancy is personally taken care of by you." How can Concubine Hui have such the ability to do such a thing under your nose?—" The Emperor pointed to the box of spices, "Who can guarantee that this box of spices is not someone to blame Concubine Hui?"
"Emperor!!" the Queen Mother's face turned a little blue, "What do you mean!"
The emperor smiled and said in a light tone: "Huang Eniang, I know that you don't like the Gao family, it's your son's, you shouldn't leave Concubine Hui in the palace, it will make you unhappy." But that's the end of it. ”
"Emperor, do you think that it is the mourning family who blames the Gao family?!! "The queen mother was already so angry that her hands trembled, and her wrinkled old face was already faintly tinged with iron blue.
The emperor's face was cold, and his voice suddenly rose a few degrees: "No matter who blames the Gao family, I don't want to get to the bottom of it! If the matter is big, it will be a scandal." Please also ask the royal lady to take care of the royal face and stop making trouble. ”
Hearing that the emperor's tone was already a little unkind, Concubine Xian couldn't help but feel aggrieved for her aunt, she hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, would you rather believe in Concubine Hui than believe in the Queen Mother?!"
The emperor's eyes instantly turned cold, and the cold gaze made Concubine Xian's body tremble, but she still held on: "The concubine is the lord of Jingren Palace, if Guo Jia's sister gives birth to a prince, she will be raised by the concubine as usual, Concubine Hui and the concubine have always been at odds, of course she doesn't want the concubine to have a child under her knees!"
"Enough!!" the emperor suddenly roared, "You are living the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain!!"
Concubine Xian was yelled at by the emperor, she was angry and aggrieved, she pointed to the spice on the plate and said, "Although the concubine is not a gentleman, but the evidence is here, Concubine Hui is a villain!!"
The emperor slapped a slap on the desk next to him, shaking the tea cup and the fragrance of tea permeating.
"Concubine Xian, shut up!" It was not the emperor who shouted this sentence, but the queen mother, "As a concubine, how can you be rude to the emperor?"
Concubine Xian hurriedly lowered her head, she choked and said, "If Concubine Hui is really gentle and kind, the emperor will just believe her." Has the emperor forgotten the incident of Yi Guiren's Bai's miscarriage at the beginning? It was clearly Concubine Hui who plotted to kill the emperor's heir, but the emperor actually believed her, and now Concubine Hui has murdered the son of Guo Jia's womb, and the evidence is conclusive, but the emperor still wants to protect her!" Concubine Xian was aggrieved, but she yelled, and she didn't notice that the emperor's whole face had gradually become gloomy.
As soon as Concubine Xian's words fell, the emperor grabbed the tea cup beside him and threw it directly at Concubine Xian!!
With a bang, the tea cup exploded on the forehead of Concubine Xian! !
"Ah!!!" Concubine Xian covered her forehead covered with blood and fell to the ground, fortunately the tea was not too hot, otherwise Concubine Xian would not have just been stabbed on her forehead by broken porcelain.
Concubine Xian didn't know that her undoubted words just now had angered the emperor's heart for many years of hatred, the emperor's eyes were already flushed red, and a thunderous voice of anger resounded through Cining Palace, "I saw your ignorance and forgave your arrogance again and again!!
The emperor roared angrily, turned his head and glanced at the queen mother coldly: "The emperor's mother knows better than me in her heart!"
The Queen Mother's heart tightened, and she suddenly grabbed the Buddha beads in her hand, and she pretended to be calm: "What does the emperor mean by this?"
"Huang Eniang thinks that I am busy with government affairs, so I can't see the affairs of the inner concubine?" The emperor sneered, "Actually, Huang Eniang is wrong! I know everything!! I know the cause and effect of Concubine Zhe's death! I know better why the Bai family had a miscarriage! Therefore, in the future, I will ask the Huang Eniang to live a good life and take care of the whole year, don't be so troublesome anymore, I will be filial to the emperor as usual." ”
The Queen Mother's face couldn't help but turn a little pale. The emperor's words were clearly a warning to her!!
Leaving these words, the emperor strode away directly.
Only a group of women in the palace remained, with different complexions. But when she looked at it, not only the face of the Queen Mother and Concubine Xian was pale, but even the queen's face was not very good, and even the fist under her sleeve was already trembling faintly.
Hao Ming secretly thought, since the emperor even knew the secret things that the queen mother did, the queen did what he was afraid that the emperor knew better. That's why the queen is afraid!!
Hao Ming laughed secretly, the emperor is actually really unlucky, the old lady and the wife have their own calculations, they each think they are clever, but now the emperor tells them that he knows everything, but he just doesn't want to tear his face. At the same time, he also warned the Queen Mother, don't make any more trouble, don't always think about letting Concubine Xian be the queen. Otherwise...... The emperor didn't say what would have happened otherwise, but with the wisdom of the queen mother, she must have guessed the consequences.
The Queen Mother sat upright for a long time, and suddenly her body became weak, and she held her forehead with both hands, revealing a look of pain.
"Queen Mother!" Concubine Xian didn't care about the injury on her forehead, and hurriedly ordered: "The Queen Mother has a head wind, go and get the medicine!!"
The Queen Mother took a deep breath, waved her hand and said, "It's okay...... , mourning the family...... It's okay......"
But Ming listened to the voice of the Queen Mother, but she didn't think she was fine, this time the Queen Mother no longer had the momentum of Fang Cai, and she was already a weak old man who was tormented by illness.
Changchun Palace.
When the queen came back from Cining Palace, she sat down on the chair, her hands were already trembling again, "The emperor even knows what the queen mother does, what the palace does...... He must have known about it!!" The queen's face was pale, and her eyes were full of panic, "No wonder, the emperor is becoming more and more indifferent to the palace, and he no longer has the affection when he first entered the palace!!He knows everything!!The matter of Concubine Zhe! The matter of the premature birth of the third elder brother!There is also the fact that Concubine Xian can no longer be pregnant, and the palace controls the belly of the harem concubines...... The emperor must know about it!"
Mama Chen hurriedly comforted: "Niangniang, you should be calmer! You still have the second elder brother and the second princess! The emperor will give you dignity no matter what!"
When the queen heard this, she seemed to have caught driftwood, "Yes, there is still Yonglian in this palace! There is a son in this palace, and the emperor will give this palace a decent one!!"
Chuxiu Palace.
Hao Ming slanted at the sunset outside the window, and the emperor's words and warnings also shocked the queen mother and the queen, which should be a good thing for her. But Concubine Hui's dog bit Guo Jia's family, the emperor didn't believe the queen mother, and after thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly thought of a story, the wolf came.
The child who lied in that story and suffered greatly was the Queen Mother. And Concubine Hui took advantage of this.
Concubine Hui's purpose was not to murder Guo Jia's son, but to further destroy the mother-son relationship between the emperor and the queen mother.
As a result, Concubine Hui succeeded. The emperor didn't believe in Concubine Hui too much, but he didn't believe in the Queen Mother too much. Therefore, the more conclusive the evidence of the crime seemed, the more the emperor thought that the empress dowager had designed the frame.
Concubine Hui's trick is calculated by people's hearts. The plan is the best plan!(To be continued.) )
