Chapter 485, Qing Dynasty Chapter (2) Sacrifice to Tailing
"Your Majesty, I ask to see the Prince. Wu Shulai bowed in and reported.
The emperor coughed twice before calling for a summons.
He came with the prince in court clothes, saluted, and said: "Your Majesty, the death day of the imperial examination is coming, you ......"
When the emperor heard this, he suddenly remembered this important matter, "This matter ...... Ahem!"
Wu Shulai couldn't help but remind: "Your Majesty, the imperial doctor has told you, you have to recuperate carefully for a while." β
The emperor gasped twice, and then said casually: "You just go for me, anyway, it's not the first time!" "Earlier, the emperor's sons were young, and the only ones who were qualified to worship the emperor's Tailing on behalf of the emperor were the royal brother and the prince Hongday.
But as soon as these words were spoken, the emperor frowned, and added: "Call Yonghuang to go with him." β
Hongtian was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it for a while, his heart beat hard, does the emperor want to set up a big brother? There is a grandson, but there is no grandson,ββ but Yonghuang's killing of his brother is a stain for a lifetime, and I am afraid that it is not appropriate to choose him......
But the matter of the reserve, Hongtian really didn't want to talk too much, let alone get involved, so he obediently agreed. In short, as an uncle, he should take care of his nephew more, right? No matter who he appoints as the prince, he will not treat him badly.
But where did Hongyang think that the emperor and Yonghuang would go together, it didn't mean that at all, it was purely wary of Hongyang. The emperor thought that if he was not the concubine of the first emperor's middle palace, he would be inseparable from Hongtian, and if he did not protect Hongday, he would have thoughts that he should not be born! Naturally, he couldn't get it back, so he added Yonghuang easily.
The holy decree descended on the eldest brother's mansion, and Yonghuang's heart was surging when he ascended. Even Hongtian couldn't help but wonder if the emperor wanted to be long. Yonghuang, the person concerned, couldn't help but think about it more.
This time to worship Tailing, the uncle and nephew have their own thoughts.
Guo Shu cried urgently, he thought that on the day of the emperor's death, the emperor would definitely come, but he didn't expect a prince and an elder brother to come.
Gotta wait another year.
And this year, the emperor concentrated on checking the whereabouts of Mingming. was also impatient with the harem, and finally promoted Concubine Xian to Concubine Xian and ordered her to take charge of the affairs of the Six Palaces. and Jin Chun Concubine, Jia Concubine, Yu Concubine, and Yi Concubine are all concubines, filling the positions of the four concubines.
In the blink of an eye, it was the death day of the first emperor in the fourteenth year of Qianlong, and the emperor issued an order to order Prince Hongyu and the third elder brother Yongzhang to go to Tailing to pay tribute to the first emperor.
Now. made the eldest brother, who had been active for a whole year, suddenly extinguish the fire.
The emperor also saw that this son had a mind that should not be born. Therefore, the emperor, who originally planned to sacrifice the first emperor in person, changed his mind and let his younger brother Hongyi go with his third son Yongzhang, which also made Yonghuang sober up.
In the same year, Hongyang saw the emperor's defense of him, so he resigned from the errand of the Zongren Mansion and the Lifan Yuan on the grounds of physical discomfort, and only concentrated on the trivial matters of the Internal Affairs Office. became a leisurely rich and idle king. - This is also the meaning of Concubine Yugui.
In a blink of an eye, it was the fifteenth year of Qianlong.
Guo Shu, the eunuch in charge of Tailing, who has been waiting for almost three years. Finally, His Majesty the Emperor is here!!
Guo Shu took the opportunity, holding the old rosewood box in his hand, and knelt down with a puff, "Eunuch Su's relics before his death were handed over to the slaves a few days before he died, and he personally told the slaves that if they want the slaves, they must be handed over to the emperor by hand!"
The emperor was stunned, he checked his biological mother for three years, but unfortunately all the old people were dead, so nothing was found at the sticky rod, which made the emperor quite annoyed.
Now, the sentence "Eunuch Su's relics before his death" made the emperor's heart jump suddenly, the emperor took a look, saw that there was a lock on it, and asked: "Where is the key?"
Guo Shu hurriedly said: "Back to the emperor, when Gonggong Su gave the slave, he didn't have a key! Because this keyhole has long been rusty, and having a key means not having a key." If the emperor looks at the things inside, I am afraid that he can only open it with brute force. β
The emperor was busy taking a closer look, and the keyhole was indeed a patina, and it really couldn't be opened, so it can be seen that I don't know how many years it has been put away, ten or twenty years?
Thinking of this, the emperor was stunned for a moment and couldn't wait, so he directly pulled out the dragon sword of the Son of Heaven he was wearing, slashed it down with a sword, and cut off the copper lock.
Finally, the box opened.
Lying quietly inside was a letter with a white corner, which read: "Yuanshou personally opened!!"
Motoju!!
The emperor was shocked, and even he almost forgot his childhood name!!
The emperor's name is "Hongli", but this name was really given to him after the first emperor ascended the throne, originally he was called "Yuanshou", and Hongday was called "Tianshen" - Yuanshou Tianshen, which sounded like a pair of brothers.
Later, when he was twelve years old, the first emperor changed the names of both him and Tianshen according to the order of the princes.
He is Hongli, and the fifth brother Tianshen is Hongday.
The emperor's hands trembled, and the name was enough, but the important thing was the word...... That stroke, such as an iron painting silver hook, is undoubtedly the emperor's own handwriting!!This kind of handwriting, he is extremely familiar, and has copied countless times, although in recent years, he has not copied, but he will never admit mistakes!!
The Emperor trembled and opened the envelope, which contained a piece of stationery, also with yellowed corners.
There is only one sentence written on it.
"I'm ashamed of Niu Hulu's family. β
The emperor's hand shook, and the letter almost fell to the ground!!
Niu Hulu's family, Concubine Xi's Niu Hulu family, is really his biological mother!!Otherwise, the imperial examination would not have left this sentence!!
Why is he ashamed, because the emperor watched the queen mother kill his biological mother!!
Su Peisheng ...... Before his death, did he devote himself to taking care of the affairs of Tailing?" the emperor asked.
Guo Shu hurriedly said: "Gonggong Su is very dedicated, and even the concubine tomb of the first emperor often goes to worship!"
"Concubine, who is he going to worship?!" the emperor asked eagerly.
Guo Shu said: "Concubine Xi's mausoleum, the slave has seen Gonggong Su go several times." β
Xi Taifei Mausoleum!!
The last trace of doubt in the emperor's heart collapsed!!
The Emperor clutched the piece of paper tightly, then lit it with the candle on the altar and set it on fire.
The lock was rusty, and no one had seen the contents of the letter before him.
I am the concubine of the first emperor, except for the position of the queen mother herself, no one else knows.
"Guo Shu, from now on, you will go back to the palace on an errand. The emperor said lightly.
"Thank you for the emperor's grace!" Guo Shu trembled with excitement, he had waited for so many years, and finally waited for this day! !
The emperor had a strong murderous intent in his heartβsure enough, it was the Queen Mother who killed my biological mother!!My biological mother died young, but she enjoyed all the glory!!The hateful imperial examination even connived at her!
I...... Going to kill her!!
The emperor has only one thought in his heart at the moment!!
However, you can't do it openly!!
He can't lose his identity as the concubine of the first emperor's middle palace, and his throne can't be shaken in the slightest!!
In this way, it can only be assassinated!!
It's just that the Queen Mother's city is very deep, and it is not easy to assassinate her, so I am afraid that I have to think carefully of a proper method.
A ghostly fire appeared in the emperor's eyes. (To be continued.) )
