Chapter 187: The Bitter Prince

The Queen Mother rested in the Golden Palace.

Wei Qian stood in the hall, listening to the crying outside, and stepped forward to touch the coffin, and his heart was complicated.

Another elder left, leaving around and staying, and in the end he was left alone.

Although my mother faked her death and fled overseas, she is afraid that she will not escape death in the future. Although the younger brother and younger siblings are young, a hundred years of cultivators have passed in the blink of an eye, and how many people will accompany them at that time?

"The avenue is vast, and walking alone, this is the disease of cultivation." Wei Qian was dressed in plain clothes, closed her eyes and meditated, adjusting her mood.

Suddenly, Hongchun hurried over: "Niangniang, Concubine Chen has arrived." ”

The queen mother stopped the spirit, Situ Yun, the prince and Wei Qian took turns to guard the spirit, and the concubines also took turns to fight.

"Isn't the next round Concubine Wen and the second prince?" Wei Qian turned her head to squint, and Hongchun was also dressed in white, with long hair and white flowers on her head.

"Concubine Chen hugged the third prince and wanted to give the old queen mother an extra ride."

Wei Qian thought thoughtfully: "That's it, since they are coming, let them come, after all, it is the last time in the world." Besides, Niangniang took care of the Chen family before her death, how should the Chen family express it. ”

Wei Qian ordered someone to let Concubine Chen in, and Concubine Chen hugged the third prince and cried.

Concubine Xiao Chen is not the biological mother of the third prince, but a daughter of the Chen family who entered the palace after Chen Mengyu died of illness. She has not been subjected to any trouble since she entered the palace, and has been protected by the Queen Mother, this cry is sincere. In addition to being the queen mother, she is also sad for herself and the Chen family.

Without the queen mother, the Chen family is in decline, how can it compete with other descendants?

Queen Wang's maternal family has Wang Zheng to support the field and the prince to take care of her over the years, and gradually occupy the right to speak in the court.

The Wei Mansion has the eldest princess of Yihe and Concubine Ningde to help him, and the Marquis of Changping is also a meritorious general, these two families are loved by the emperor, where is the place of the Chen family?

Since the Chen family helped Situ Yun subdue the Wu family, the value of the Chen family has lost most of it, although Situ Yun did not cross the river and demolish the bridge, but he did not let the Chen family occupy too many official positions. Most of them are pension and leisure positions, clean and rich without real power.

Wei Qian came out of the palace and saw the second prince Su Min coming.

The second prince was provoked by the crown prince and turned back to ask the old man in the palace. Those people in Jia Yuanchun's palace didn't say much good things about Wei Qian. Moreover, the Qingbian Hall is still standing, and many people suspect that Wei Qian did it at the beginning. This suspicion lasted for hundreds of years, and it was not until later generations turned out the smallpox case in the history books that it was truly whitewashed.

When everyone said this, the second prince had doubts in his heart, and his relationship with Wei Qian gradually drifted apart.

The two nodded, the second prince entered the guard, and Wei Qian took the two palace maids to Ningshou Palace.

Situ Yun sat in the palace of the Queen Mother and remembered his biological mother Chen.

Concubine Chen was raised by the harsh environment surrounded by concubines in the palace. The mother and son struggled to support and finally reached the top. Later, they supported and resisted the pressure of the Emperor Taishang and Concubine Zhen together.

The relationship between mother and son is deep, and there is rarely a red face.

Wei Qian came over, saw Situ Yun's haggard face, and persuaded him to take care of his body in a low voice, and then asked, "Can Niangniang's nickname come down?" ”

"Empress Zhuang Rencigong."

Zhuang Ren is his title, Ci is given by Situ Yun, and Empress Gong refers to serving the Emperor Taishang, and she is the queen who is seriously worshiped in the Taimiao.

"Fortunately, my imperial mausoleum is almost completed, and I will let my mother enter the imperial mausoleum first." After a pause, Situ Yun explained to Wei Qian: "After all, there is no one on my father's side. ”

Emperor Taishang faked his death and is currently practicing outside. His imperial mausoleum was empty, with only a few concubines buried.

Wei Qian nodded to show that she understood: "It's deserted over there, or it's on His Majesty's side, and it will also make the whole mother and son friendship in the future." "The burial of the Queen Mother is nothing more than two ways to follow her husband and son, and there are not many Queen Mother Mausoleums that are truly independent.

There are queens and concubines next to Situ Yun's imperial mausoleum, and now that the queen mother is going again, think about it, and you will know that the underworld will definitely be very lively in the future.

The Queen Mother was mourned for a long time, and the war in the south was delayed because of this matter, giving Tongyuanjiao a chance to breathe. After attacking Jinling City for a long time, it allowed it to recapture several important towns.

In this regard, Situ Yun didn't have much of a seizure, and remembered the judgments of those masters in the past: "Sure enough, the ten-year southern expedition is heaven's will?" ”

After a little reprimand, Situ Yun prepared for the third southern expedition.

As the days passed, the Queen Mother left, and the Chen family declined, but Situ Yun remembered a love, and a year after the Queen Mother was buried, the Chen family was promoted to the throne.

The Chen family has two more Cheng'en dukes, and Concubine Chen was promoted to the position of Concubine De by Situ Yun, and the treatment of the three princes was improved, and she was directly named the future king of the county by Situ Yun.

Clear-eyed people understand that this is Situ Yunnian's way of preserving the Chen family after his mother. As long as the Chen family does not die, there will be a county king and a concubine to take care of them in the future, and the glory will not fade.

And Concubine Chen's change brought about changes in the harem situation.

Concubine Wen was promoted from Zhaoyi to Concubine Shu, while Wei Qian was promoted from Concubine Shu to Concubine Hui.

Wei Qian and Situ Yun sat in the palace to seal and write an edict, Wei Qian smiled: "Guihui Shude is the ranking of the four concubines of this dynasty. The concubine body has changed from Concubine De to Concubine Shu, from Concubine Shu to Concubine Hui, and she is only one step away from the ultimate goal of the concubine. What's the matter, His Majesty is really ready to let the concubine go through the four concubines step by step? ”

"Why, that's a record, isn't it?" A year later, the two of them suffered a lot less, Situ Yun smiled gently: "After all, you can't seal the queen, step by step through the four concubines, it can be regarded as my compensation for you." ”

The pattern of Wei Qian's rule over the six palaces remains unchanged, and there is no way to change it. The status is stable and virtuous, and the interests of a group of courtiers and even the East Palace are involved.

Donggong and Wei Qian are bound too deadly, and they don't give others the possibility to come out at all.

"Then the nine concubines, who does Your Majesty want to take the throne?" Wei Qian listed a few names and circled Xue Baochai: "How is Concubine Xue?" ”

"Concubine Xue?" Situ Yun remembered his mother's dislike for Concubine Xue, thought about it, and only gave him the position of full yuan.

"The queen mother has always disliked Concubine Xue, but now let her be a full mother, which can be regarded as a friendship with me." Situ Yun thought for a while, and then said: "At the beginning, you entered the palace as a full yuan, and now that she is sitting in this position, let her stay for the rest of her life." ”

Wei Qian was stunned for a moment, unable to understand who Situ Yun's words were biased towards.

Situ Yun remembered that he had contradicted his biological mother for Concubine Xue, and regretted it in his heart. And Wei Qian has always been favored by his mother, so his behavior is a remembrance of his mother.

Xue Baochai's highest position in this life is just the lowest position for Wei Qian to enter the palace, so as to comfort his mother's ancestors.

Then, the positions of the concubines behind him were advanced by two points one by one, and one of the Jieyu was selected to become the mother of Chongrong.

So far, the four concubines account for three, the nine concubines are complete, seven Jieyu, eleven talents, and twenty Baolin, this is Situ Yun's harem.

Catching up with the loss of the Emperor Taishang and the Queen Mother, there are not many people in Situ Yun's harem.

The direct line has been filial piety for three years, but after a year, there is no longer a ban on sexual intercourse in the palace. The prince's marriage was also put back on the agenda, and the auspicious day of the zodiac was selected two years later.

This time there is time, and everyone is ready to proceed slowly, and arrange the big joy after filial piety.

The concubine in the palace was carried out in a low-key manner, and the Ministry of Rites made various arrangements for the crown princess ceremony.

Outcome...... As a result, two months later, the future crown princess died.

That's right, dead!

Occasionally, he felt a cold and died of illness.

Wei Qian personally went out of the palace to visit, without any trace of outsider interference, just a natural disaster*, helpless.

The crown princess died of illness, the prince felt aggrieved, half of the three-media and six-employment process, he did not advance or retreat, and he became the most noble "widower" in the world.

The angry prince held back in the East Palace for a few days and did not see outsiders.

Wei Qian inquired about the news, shook her head and smiled bitterly: "When I wanted to manage the marriage before the old lady, I was afraid of this step. ”

The grandson has been filial piety for three years, and there are too many things that can happen in these three years. There was really a bad accident, and the rest of the things were blocked.

Wei Qian looked up and suddenly saw a female officer next to her. This female official's surname is Li, and she has the same surname as the crown princess. Originally, Wei Qian saw that she was noble, and she liked to write poems, so Wei Qian took her with her to serve.

Now that she saw it, the green clouds above her head gave birth to purple qi, and the image of a phoenix spreading its wings loomed, and she felt something in her heart.

I'm afraid that the crown princess is a chariot for the king, but she is just opening the way for the main lord. The female official on her side is the real candidate for the crown princess.

After thinking about it, Wei Qian instructed Li Feiya: "The prince has been in a bad mood for the past two days, you go to the treasury to get some fruits and send them to him." ”

Seeing this, the marriage was set, and the crown princess ceremony continued.

And Wei Qian quietly came to the Jade Turtle Platform in Penglai Island, summoned the dragon that was sealed that year, and ordered someone to send it out of the palace and bring it into the New World to seal the gods.
