Chapter 140: Knowing the Times
After the imperial doctor finished prescribing the prescription and instructed him about the decoction and medicine, Aunt Liang asked him to send him away. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Only Jiang Yu, Cui Chongyi, Aunt Liang and the two palace people she brought were left in the cold palace.
Aunt Liang waved her hand to let the two palace people behind her go down, and said to Cui Chongyi: "Chongyi Niangniang, please also go out to avoid it, the Queen Mother has a few words, and I want the slave maid to tell the concubine Niangniang alone." ”
Cui Chongyi nodded, and then went out.
After everyone went out, Aunt Liang came over, stood by the bed and looked at Jiang Yu with a smile, and said, "The Queen Mother asked the slave maid to ask the concubine Niangniang, can the concubine Niangniang understand it?"
Jiang Yu said: "I understand it, and I think about it." ”
Aunt Liang nodded and said, "It's good that the mother can figure it out, so the queen mother will be very happy." ”
Saying that, he sighed again, sat on the chair next to the bed, looked at Jiang Yu, and said with a smile on his lips: "The matter of Concubine Shu's miscarriage, the emperor knows who loves and protects whom in his heart, at a glance." Concubine Shu is such a simple calculation, how can the emperor not see through it, the emperor knows that Niangniang is innocent but still severely punished Niangniang, but because Concubine Shu lost her child and was angry with Niangniang, and secondly, it was still for Concubine Shu. The emperor can't tell others that it was Concubine Shu who framed her own child, which made Concubine Shu's reputation dusty, so he could only follow Concubine Shu's wishes to let Concubine Guifei suffer this injustice. But in this case, where did the emperor put Niangniang. The reputation of the concubine is important, isn't the reputation of the concubine important?"
Jiang Yu's eyes were slightly red, and his face was heartbroken, and he said: "Aunt Liang doesn't need to say it, these palaces have already seen it, and I don't dare to have any hope for this man." ”
Aunt Liang said: "Don't worry, as long as the mother can figure it out, the queen mother will naturally find a way to save the mother out and help the mother clear up her grievances." The promise made by the Queen Mother is still valid. "If you can't figure it out, you will naturally have to die of old age.
Jiang Yu hung his head and didn't speak, but there was an expression of love and hatred on his face, and the hand on the quilt was clenched into a fist.
Aunt Liang stood up again and said to Jiang Yu: "Then Niangniang should take good care of her illness and wait for the good news of the Queen Mother." After speaking, he went out of Jiang Yu's room.
After going out, I saw Cui Chongyi standing under the locust tree and didn't know what he was thinking, so he walked over and said to Cui Chongyi with a smile: "Cui Chongyi, you have been wronged in the cold palace for the past two months, and the Queen Mother has always remembered you in her heart." ”
Cui Chongyi smiled lightly and said, "Yes, thank you aunt for remembering." ”
Aunt Liang said again: "This time, the Queen Mother will take Chongyi out of the cold palace together, I think these two months can make Chongyi understand that it is not Chongyi who is in the harem, and the emperor will forget that you are a girl from the Cui family." Since Chongyi has the surname of the Cui family, she should also shoulder the responsibility of being the woman of the Cui family. Can't write two 'Cui' in one stroke, the Cui family, one is prosperous and the other is lost, and no one can escape. ”
Cui Chongyi said: "Yes." ”
Aunt Liang said again: "A few days ago, the slave maid went out of the palace to Cui's house and saw the fifth aunt. The fifth aunt is very good, so that Chongyi doesn't have to remember, and let Chongyi listen to the words of the queen mother in the palace. ”
Cui Chongyi knew that her aunt would never say such a thing to her, but she didn't argue and said to Aunt Liang: "Yes." ”
Aunt Liang didn't say anything more, and then left the cold palace with the palace people.
When she returned to Jing'an Palace, Empress Dowager Cui was sitting on the couch and looking at the figure of a Xuan-colored porcelain Guanyin on the table, and when she saw Aunt Liang coming back, she hurriedly beckoned her to come over, and said, "How about you come over to help the mourning family take a look at this Xuan-colored porcelain Guanyin?"
Aunt Liang walked over and bent her knees first, and then carefully looked at the statue of Guanyin on the table, and said with a smile: "This Guanyin looks compassionate and pure, and the slave seems to see the Buddha's light on the face." But the one that Niangniang specially asked people to burn for His Royal Highness King Qi?"
Empress Dowager Cui nodded, carefully picked up Guanyin and touched it, and said: "Jiong'er was sick two months ago, and the illness lingered for half a month before he recovered. When firing, the 7749 monks of Foguang Temple continue to chant and bless until the firing is completed. The mourning family hopes that this Guanyin can bless Jiong'er with peace and health. ”
Aunt Liang said: "The Queen Mother sincerely respects the Buddha, and she will be able to be blessed by the Buddha and His Royal Highness the King of Qi." ”
Empress Dowager Cui said: "I hope so." He said: "Our mother and son haven't seen each other for three years, and when the emperor forced Jiong'er to become a vassal, Jiong'er was only fourteen years old. Said and hated again: "In the years that the emperor has been on the throne, he has found various reasons to prevent the vassal king from returning to Beijing, and has separated our mother and son for so many years. ”
Aunt Liang comforted the Empress Dowager Cui and said, "All the hardships endured by the Empress Dowager and His Royal Highness King Qi for the future are worth it. He also said: "In two months, it will be the emperor's birthday festival, and this is the first birthday after the emperor ascended the throne." When all the countries come to the court, the eight directions will come to pay tribute, and the vassal king will inevitably enter Beijing to celebrate. No matter what this year, the emperor can no longer have a reason to stop it, otherwise the face of the court will not be good-looking, and then Niangniang will be able to meet His Royal Highness King Qi. ”
Empress Dowager Cui nodded, and she was also looking forward to seeing her son as soon as possible.
Then he pointed to the palace people next to him and said: "Let the Bodhisattva's appearance be carefully escorted to the Foguang Temple, and the incense is constantly offered every day, and a high monk continues to chant and pray for His Royal Highness King Qi in front of the Bodhisattva every day." ”
Gong Dao said, and then carefully went out with the Bodhisattva statue in his hand.
Empress Dowager Cui waved her hand again and asked the other palace people in the hall to go out, and then asked, "What, what did Meng Yuyu say?"
Aunt Liang smiled: "The slave maid sees that the concubine is aware of current affairs, and she can take it for her own use." ”
Empress Dowager Cui nodded and said, "You did a good job." ”
Empress Dowager Cui asked again: "How did you do other things?"
Aunt Liang said: "It's also done." ”
Empress Dowager Cui nodded and said no more.
It's just that Aunt Liang still didn't understand a little, and asked the Queen Mother: "The slave is stupid, and there is nothing unclear." After this incident, I am afraid that the emperor may not still believe in the concubine, if so, is it still useful for you to win over the concubine? Recently, Zheng Cairen has been quite favored, and she has become friendly with Concubine Shu, and the emperor may have given up on the concubine and used Zheng Cairen instead. ”
Empress Dowager Cui said: "Whether it is useful or not, it depends on the concubine's own ability." If she doesn't even have the ability to regain the emperor's trust, it's not worth my effort. As for Zheng Cairen, she went out of the mourning palace, and the emperor would not trust it. ”
Aunt Liang said yes.
Empress Dowager Cui said again: "It seems that the mourning family should also invite the emperor to sit in the Jing'an Palace of the mourning family." ”
