The palace people led Qiu Ruyi to the side hall. ~with~dream~small~say~щ~suimеng~lā

Qiu Ruyi was silent for a moment and said, "Don't bother the Imperial Doctor. The Empress Dowager, the concubine has indeed been pregnant for more than five months. ”

"This is the reason why your husband and wife are in a hurry to flee the capital. "The Empress Dowager's tone is cold, how kind of kindness the first emperor treated you Lu Guogong, this is how you repay the first emperor?

Qiu Ruyi kowtowed: "It is precisely because I am grateful to the first emperor that I am full of liver and brain, and I don't want to be blamed by future generations for harming the first emperor because of this incident." The concubine was conceived before the collapse of the first emperor, although she would be born in the period of national filial piety, but thinking about it, with the benevolence of the first emperor, she would rather have one more person in Da Chu than take away an innocent little life. The concubine's family also decided to keep this child after several thoughts, because this must be what the emperor was willing to see. As for concealing it in many ways, it is also afraid that this matter will arouse the empress dowager's pain, which must be what the first emperor does not want to see. ”

"What a sharp-toothed girl, in order to repay the kindness of the first emperor, your family is really well-intentioned, even the mourning family has to thank you for your intimate consideration!" The Empress Dowager suddenly laughed, and her words pierced Qiu Ruyi's heart like a sharp arrow wrapped in ice ballast: "What do you say, but you can't even give up a fetus, you can accompany the first emperor, that is his creation! Although the first emperor is benevolent, it is not an excuse for you to lose your duties as a courtier." Give it up, with the protection of the first emperor, he will be blessed in the next life. ”

"No!" Qiu Ruyi hurriedly protected his stomach, and he didn't care about etiquette, and looked up at the Empress Dowager.

It's only been a year, and the Queen Mother is already very old. The gorgeous clothes and gold beads and jade chuan can't hide her old state: her temples have grown gorgeous hair, her forehead has added a few wrinkles, her cheeks are no longer rich as before, they are sunken, her cheekbones are high, and she looks ten years older than her previous life, but her eyes are more sharp than before.

Qiu Ruyi lowered his head and said: "The same mother, the pain of the Empress Dowager, and the concubines feel the same way. The concubine dared to persuade the empress dowager: The first emperor is the descending of the gods, and now although he has returned to the right position, the first emperor is pure filial piety, and he will not give up his relationship with your mother and son, and he will still pay attention to you from time to time in heaven. He wants to see you get out of your grief as soon as possible, take care of his country, and take care of his people. The concubine implored the mother to obey the benevolence of the emperor and spare the fetus in the concubine's womb. ”

At the mention of her son, the Empress Dowager's heart softened, and her tears almost flowed again, she forcibly suppressed her tears, and said to Qiu Ruyi: "He is a benevolent person, and he has always been kind to others, and the ministers and the people do not praise him! You ask yourself, did this fetus exist before the collapse of the first emperor? I am also a mother, and I know that you are reluctant, but he came at the wrong time. If you force him to come, what kind of face will your Guogong Mansion have in the future to meet the gracious emperor?"

Qiu Ruyi's heart skipped a beat.

At the beginning, it was for this reason that Lu Guogong and his wife hesitated whether to keep the child.

It was only because of the persistence of her husband and wife and the people-oriented view of her grandfather's family that the family worked together.

But this point was admitted in front of the Empress Dowager.

As the Empress Dowager said, if you blindly have the idea of loyalty, this child should not be kept, but she is not wrong, this child is even more innocent, she can only do ~ things according to her mother's nature.

The Empress Dowager's behavior is already extreme, as long as she is caught in the slightest mistake, she will definitely not forgive.

Qiu Ruyi made up his mind and was just about to open his mouth to deny it, when someone from the palace came in to report: King Qi and several royal relatives invited the empress dowager to see him.

The Empress Dowager swept towards Qiu Ruyi, and a sneer bloomed on her face: "I just asked you to come in and say a word, look at them nervously, you are the daughter-in-law of the An family, and you are a descendant of the An family in your belly, can I still force you to take medicine? If I am really Lu Huo and the like, I am afraid that they will have already eaten me alive by now. ”

"Regardless of his great affairs, the mourning family is gone, but I want to see where they can go. The Emperor ordered the palace people to go back, and said to the imperial doctor: "Give the Qiu family a pulse." ”

Qiu Ruyi knew that the rescuers were coming, and his heart was really relaxed, but he didn't dare to say more, for fear of saying too much and making mistakes, which would arouse the anger of the Empress Dowager, so he got up and sat aside, and then stretched out his wrist to cooperate with the imperial doctor to take the pulse.

After the imperial doctor took the pulse, he got up and played: "Mrs. Shizi's fetus is more than four months and less than five months. ”

The Empress Dowager's eyes were as if they were quenched with poison, and she stared fiercely at Qiu Ruyi's abdomen.

Her son was lying in the coffin cold for half a month, and her husband and wife still had the heart to rejoice~ love, even if the news could not be transmitted, they deserved death.

Although Qiu Ruyi didn't raise her head, she could feel the empress dowager's eyes like ice and snow, so she hurriedly stepped forward and said: "The concubine went through the collapse of the first emperor, her husband's life was in danger, she couldn't eat, she couldn't sleep, and then she ran all the way, vomited for a month, and was as thin as bones. Since the mother's body is damaged, the fetus in the womb will naturally be affected, and it is also possible to be weaker than ordinary children. It is also the reason why the fetus cannot be diagnosed even though it has passed five months. ”

The mother is damaged, and the fetus is weaker than the average person.

The Empress Dowager closed her eyes painfully, how naïve she was when she was young, she mistakenly believed in her father and brother, and mistook her husband as a lover, so she fell into his way and was drugged.

Liu An fought for power, and her son was harmed, this hatred, she could not eliminate it for the rest of her life, and she could not help but repay this hatred. Whether it's Liu or An, these people deserve to die!

It's just that this fuse can't be her. Liu could have treated her as a waste chess back then, but now it will be even worse, and An's hatred is not enough, because they still have hope.

The Empress Dowager gritted her teeth: "The mourning family will believe you this time." ”

Qiu Ruyi was overjoyed and hurriedly kowtowed: "The Empress Dowager is wise." The concubine thanked the Empress Dowager. ”

"You need to thank you in a hurry, you swear by the fetus in your womb first. ”

Qiu Ruyi looked at the Empress Dowager's mouth opening and closing in a trance, and her heart was at a loss.

How could the Empress Dowager do this? The fetus in her womb was more important than her life, and it was her heart and soul, so how could she swear such a poisonous oath to him?

"Since you don't dare, it means that you have a ghost in your heart, since this is the case, the mourning family announced that they came in, and gave ~ medicine clearly, so that even you can't say a word. ”

Qiu Ruyi knew that he had no choice, and tearfully repeated the words of the Empress Dowager word by word: "The fetus in my womb was conceived before the death of the first emperor, if it is not true, the emperor is above, and the gods testify, this fetus will die with thousands of arrows through the heart in the future." ”
