One hundred and forty
readx;
Jiang Yaoguang learned that the ins and outs of the matter had been settled after the dust had settled, and several days had passed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝU๏ฝEใ info Zhenguo Mansion and the Zheng family both sent people to let them slowly tell the eldest princess of Langya, the eldest princess's health is getting worse and worse, especially after the winter, but it is not easy to hide such a major event. In case the eldest princess of Langya was frightened when she heard it, it was better to let her be mentally prepared earlier.
Zheng Yu couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, and couldn't believe it, "The prince was locked up like this?" โ
Jiang Yaoguang took a sip of hot tea to suppress the shock, the reason for the queen's almost miscarriage was in the clothes she wore every day, the clothes were soaked in water with safflower, because after special treatment, no one noticed, until this almost miscarriage, the emperor strictly ordered a thorough investigation, and a group of imperial doctors took out a three-foot posture of digging the ground, and finally dug it out.
I found the maid who washed along the clothes, and then checked all the way down the vine, and found the big palace maid next to Xiao Qi's biological mother, Wen Guifei, in Hua'an Palace. But when the guards passed, the big palace maid had already committed suicide by jumping into the well.
The most terrible thing is that the person who checked the safflower line couldn't find a clue in the palace, so he started to go to the inner family of the court, Wen Guifei's maiden family is naturally the top priority, Wen Guifei's sister-in-law and uncle Fang's mother were found out to have bought safflower in private, the emperor was already furious at this time, where to care about the situation, directly let people torture Aunt Fang.
Under the punishment, Aunt Fang admitted that she did buy saffron and send it to the palace for Concubine Wen, but Concubine Wen didn't dare to ask for it, so she secretly stuffed it to the palace maid next to Concubine Wen.
Although Xiao Qi shouted that he didn't know anything about it, the emperor still grounded him in the East Palace.
Yaoguang felt that the most tricky thing was Aunt Fang, with Aunt Fang's personal confession, Xiao Qi couldn't tell clearly, even if he didn't know anything, the prince's mother wanted to be unfavorable to the queen's mother and son.
If there is no Uncle Fang, it is found on the palace maid of Hua'an Palace, and Xiao Qi can still defend that someone else planted the blame. Although there is still the possibility of framing the blame, all the evidence points to Hua'an Palace, and the biggest evidence is their own people. The crown prince is in a deep crisis of trust, and the matter of his peeping at the monarch's father has not completely passed! It is a bit difficult to make the emperor choose to believe him in the face of so much evidence, especially when Yikun Palace almost had an accident.
True and false, false and real, this Xiao Qi was really miserable.
Yaoguang privately felt that Xiao Qi really didn't know, without him, since he had the ability to let the queen wear clothes soaked in saffron for a month in Yikun Palace, where a needle couldn't be inserted, how could he not leave such a big failure as Uncle Fang, to ask for safflower, he had no less than a hundred ways, why use Uncle Fang.
Zheng Yu couldn't hide his worries, "The prince won't have an accident, right?" After asking, she suddenly remembered that she had just asked this sentence a few days ago, and it was not a good sign that it appeared so frequently.
Jiang Yaoguang paused before replying, "It's okay now." "The queen hasn't given birth yet, and when the little prince is ripe, Xiao Qi is really dangerous. The old man is already a little more painful, especially since the main palace is backed by big forces, and the emperor is now full of pity for Yikun Palace. As for the crown prince, he first peeped at his father, and then tried to murder his younger brother, and both things were full of turmoil in the city.
The prince's current situation is like standing on the edge of a cliff, as long as he pushes again, he will be doomed.
What outsiders can see, how can the East Palace be unaware. The air pressure in the East Palace is so low that people are breathless, and people who are high-spirited in the past have lowered their eyebrows and are like frosty eggplants. Since ancient times, a person has ascended to the throne of chickens and dogs, and the prince has gained power, and they have been courteous wherever they go, and the prince has fallen, and they are the feathered phoenix is not as good as the chicken.
Xiao Qi sat on the square chair with a gloomy face, looking out of the study without focus, it was already November, and the plums in the garden were blooming, one by one.
The cold wind wrapped in the cold fragrance came through the window, bringing a burst of coolness, and he remembered that when he knelt in front of his father, the bone-chilling coldness spread from the kneecaps and rushed straight to his head, but this was not as good as the disappointment and regret in his father's eyes.
His father really believed that he would harm the fetus in the queen's womb, he hated him and doubted him, but he never thought of harming him in private. Even for the sake of the royal family's reputation and the emperor's face, he has always planned to deal with the queen's stealing incident in a low-key manner.
Heh~ With the youngest son in mind, his eldest son really has to step aside.
But he didn't know that the youngest son he pinned his hopes on was a wild seed, his favorite queen was a โกโก, and his most trusted eldest sister was bent on robbing him of his country.
The emperor's health is in danger, so the eldest princess Taiping can't wait to make a move. Once the mountain collapses and he ascends the throne, the eldest princess Taiping has the prince, and it is not easy to pull him off the throne. Then she had to pull her father down while he was still on the throne, preferably if he was still dead. The little prince is too young, and the old ministers will not be happy to see the young lord ascend the throne, unless the young lord is the only choice.
Fight a good hand!
There was a knock on the door. "Your Highness." Hearing that it was the crown princess, Xiao Qi asked people to open the door.
The crown princess entered with a tray and said softly, "It's cold, I made wolfberry mutton soup, Your Highness tastes a little." Seeing that he was not interested, he responded absentmindedly.
The crown princess said, "It's not easy for the guards guarding outside, so I asked the kitchen to boil a pot of mutton soup and send it to keep them warm." โ
Xiao Qi's gaze slowly moved from the old plum tree outside the window to the face of the crown princess, took the small bowl she handed over, and bowed his head, "You have a heart." โ
He should be glad that his father was not confused to the end, and the old prince was also shrewd enough to let Jiang Jin be in charge of guarding the East Palace, if it was someone else, I was afraid that he would die inexplicably in a few days. Compared with the painstaking arrangement of one drama after another, Aunt Taiping probably wants to kill him with one sword.
The crown princess smiled gently, "It's all my duty." Seeing Xiao Qi's eyebrows knotted, her heart was astringent, "Your Highness, don't worry too much, Your Majesty is just being deceived by traitors for a while, and you will understand Your Highness's intentions." โ
Xiao Qi smiled meaninglessly, I was afraid that it would be a lifetime.
"Grandfather and Daddy sent a message, they have united many ministers and plan to go to Your Majesty to investigate this matter thoroughly, the important people are dead one by one, and there is no proof of death to convict His Highness."
The corners of Xiao Qi's mouth moved, and he stirred the spoon and spoon, "Let my grandfather and father-in-law worry about it." He knew that he would definitely go out, but the difference between morning and evening, and he wanted to do what he should do to repay Aunt Taiping for her love after he went out.
The husband and wife were sitting opposite each other, and the little eunuch ran in, saying that Jiang Liangdi had made soup and sent it with his own hands. The dignity of the main wife allowed the crown princess to reach the door of the study directly, while Jiang Yaohui could only wait outside the courtyard gate.
The crown princess, who unconsciously pinched her handkerchief, comforted herself so much, "It's a coincidence, Sister Yaohui and I thought of going together." She stood up and said goodbye, inadvertently letting Xiao Qi see the forbearance on her face.
Her wife, the front foot, came to deliver the soup, and the back foot of her concubine followed, which was too rampant.
Xiao Qi's eyes paused, and asked her to send her out.
During Laba, in the intercession of King Wucheng and a group of old ministers, Xiao Qi finally lifted the ban. However, the Wen family, which finally relied on Concubine Wen and Xiao Qi, was cut into a blank slate, and one of the Wen uncles and aunts involved was exiled for 3,000 miles, and the other was given death. Even Concubine Wen was also punished, and she was demoted from a concubine to a concubine, and the relationship between father and son was no longer the same, and the fall in the East Palace fell very hard.
Concubine Wen was depressed, and she was also infected with wind and cold, and she couldn't afford to get sick. However, the rest of the moon is skinny, and it is described as withered.
"Ahem...... The mother concubine is useless, she will drag you down all her life. โ
Xiao Qi was about to interrupt, but Concubine Wen stopped her eyes and said in a dumb voice, "If I had told you about your aunt earlier, I wouldn't have caught you off guard in the dark." It's me who is stupid, I think it's okay if I refuse, I don't want you to worry, and I'm afraid that you will have a mind that you shouldn't have. โ
Unconsciously, Xiao Qi, who was full of tears, shook his head again and again, "They are plotting to harm us, and there will be others without my aunt." โ
Concubine Wen's eyes gathered huge tears, stroked her son's face, and choked up, "How can they be ruthless, that is their own flesh and blood." We never wanted to hurt anyone, why did they want to hurt us. โ
"Mother, your son will protect you, and your son will make no one dare to underestimate you." Xiao Qi rubbed Concubine Wen's shriveled hand gently, and his tone was sonorous.
A light smile appeared on Concubine Wen's cheeks, her yellow-haired face gave birth to a different kind of brilliance, and her cloudy eyes brightened, "I want to meet Your Majesty." She is soft-spoken, but she has been with the emperor for at least 20 years, and the emperor misses the old days, and he can always help his son before he dies.
The emperor came in a hurry, who could be ruthless, even in the saffron case, he already felt that Concubine Wen was not as gentle and harmless as he imagined, but when he heard that her time was short, he still couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, and his throat was blocked. When he rushed to Hua'an Palace, seeing Concubine Wen's weak breath, his heart suddenly became sad, and he said in a trembling voice, "Why are you so sick?" โ
Concubine Wen smiled lightly and sent everyone out, and even Xiao Qi was driven away.
Xiao Qi bowed with tears in his eyes, and left with a deep and shallow foot.
Xiao Qi stood outside the door, and heard the faint sound of whimpering inside. remembered that when he was a child, the emperor was only the crown prince, and his biological mother was only Liangdi, and the crown princess Mu had passed away, and no one would pick his mother's eyes and nose again, and he didn't have to carefully keep his distance from his mother. When the father went to rest in the mother's yard, the family of three could sit together for dinner, and after the meal, the family strolled to eat, and then under the candlelight, the father listened to his endorsement, and the mother did needlework on the side.
Now they are still a family of three, but he is about to lose his mother, and his mother is still interceding for him on her deathbed, and the culprit of everything is his father.
The little eunuch gently pushed Xiao Qi's arm, "Your Highness, Your Majesty called you." โ
Xiao Qi woke up and walked into the room.
Concubine Wen's face bloomed with a strange brilliance, she held Xiao Qi's hand and pressed it on the emperor's hand, and said softly, "Your Majesty, the concubine has entrusted Ah Qi to you, he is young and ignorant, what he doesn't do well, you can scold him and beat him, but you can't ignore him, he only has you as a father." โ
The emperor's tears flowed down in an instant, and the hand she held trembled violently. The old men beside him walked one after another, and even Concubine Wen was leaving.
On the twenty-first day of the lunar month, the emperor crowned Concubine Wen as the imperial concubine of Rong'an, and on the twenty-third day of the lunar month, the Chinese New Year's Eve, the imperial concubine of Rong'an, and the imperial concubine of Rong'an.
After the funeral of the imperial concubine, the emperor fell ill, and on Chinese New Year's Eve, he came out to preside over the illness, and after a hasty appearance, he handed it over to the crown prince Xiao Qi.
This year has been very depressing, even with the good news of the party's great victory. If there is anything else to be happy about, it is that the relationship between the emperor and Xiao Qi's father and son has warmed up. But this can only be said to make some people happy.
King Wucheng was happy, after fighting for half a year, he finally forced the party to be sleepy, and achieved a big victory in the sneak attack at the end of the year, and completely pacified the southwest is just around the corner, so that he can free up his hands to solve the internal troubles.
Why did he watch Taiping step by step separate the father and son of the heavenly family and delay in exposing the queen's private affairs. Because he was afraid of startling the snake, Yu He and the eldest princess Taiping had been operating in the northwest for decades, and at present, their eldest son, Yu Sinian, was guarding the northwest border pass, holding 400,000 soldiers and horses in the northwest.
Last year, Taiping sent his eldest grandson to his father in the name of experience, which may not have been the worst plan.
It is not difficult to take Taiping, but the difficult thing is how to prevent Yu Sinian in the northwest from rebelling. As a last resort, he never wanted to see the Central Plains fighting in all directions, fighting in the same room.
King Wu Cheng was thinking about how to do it slowly, and some gossip appeared in the palace, which completely disrupted his plan.
