As soon as the queen mentioned her son, Taohua became alert: "I borrowed the good words of the mother." But the birth of children and daughters is arranged by God, who can say for sure? The prince and I want a daughter, but we are more well-behaved than our son. ”

Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng hurriedly said: "My brother and sister are not good. Naturally, sons should have more children. The prince of the county said this, that is considerate of his younger brothers and sisters, in fact, how can a man not want a son, and having a few more children can make people prosperous. I see that my younger siblings have the luck of a son, and they will definitely be able to get a man. ”

Although the topic of this son was brought up by the queen, Princess Cheng's son luck made the queen's expression a little distorted when she heard it - after all, not only did she not have a son, but she also had no daughter, and there had been no good news for more than ten years. But today's purpose is not here, although the corners of the queen's mouth twitched, she still maintained a smile: "What the princess said is." Speaking of which, whether this is a male fetus or a female fetus, the medical skills passed down by Doctor Zhou's family have some experience. I think, would it be good to send him to the princess of the county for a consultation? ”

Taohua is a little unsure of what kind of medicine is sold in the queen's gourd. Could it be that he asked a doctor to diagnose the pulse, and then said that she was pregnant with a male fetus, so that he could mention the matter of passing on Brother Xu'er? But this is not reliable, after all, giving birth to a boy and a girl always has to wait for the landing to be counted, can a doctor decide to succeed such a big thing? And even if it is passed, it must be agreed by Shen Shu, at this time Shen Shu is far away in the northwest, she only needs to come up with this reason to delay, the queen's trick is useless.

Thinking in her heart, Taohua still said perfunctorily: "It's not necessary." Both men and women know when they are born. In case the doctor made a mistake in diagnosis, it would damage his prestige if it was spread out. "Imperial Physician Zhou is the one who succeeded the envoy of the Zheng Yuan in charge of the Imperial Hospital, and is naturally the party of the Queen Mother and the Empress, but his medical skills are really not the top among these imperial doctors, and he does not have the prestige of the original envoy of the Zheng Academy.

The Queen Mother listened to it and couldn't help but glance at Taohua. The Jiang family is really sharp-toothed, and the queen can't say anything about her at all. However, today is not here to quarrel, and it doesn't even matter if Imperial Doctor Zhou comes or not, the important thing is something else. It's just that she didn't expect that the queen's idea really worked, and the Jiang family hid in the county king's mansion for more than two months, and actually entered the palace today.

Is this really annoyed by Prince Cheng's princess, or is it because he was afraid that the queen would make something about her pregnancy, so she entered the palace to find the emperor to be the master? Or, are you here to inquire about the news from the Northwest? The Queen Mother looked at Taohua carefully. Although Shen Shu went to the northwest, the Jiang family has never been without ideas, and the little tricks of Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng should not have been taken to heart by her, and entering the palace today, is it just a coincidence?

The queen didn't think so deeply as the queen mother. She really didn't expect Taohua to really enter the palace today, but since she came, if she didn't seize such a good opportunity, she might not have it next time. What's more, this time there is Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng in front of the shield, Taohua will not be suspicious, if the matter of succession is solved, and then want to persecute the Jiang family, I don't know what reason to find.

Thinking so, the queen glanced at Prince Cheng. Prince Cheng immediately said: "It's just a diagnosis here, how can it be spread?" I see that my younger siblings are pregnant with a male fetus, and it was diagnosed earlier, so I can give the fourth brother a good news, right? ”

This was said in a nondescript manner, and Taohua simply didn't want to pay attention to her: "The military situation in the northwest is urgent, how can you use such a trivial matter to disturb?" If the queen mother is safe, I will retire first. ”

"Wait." When the Queen Mother arrived here, she had to speak, "Fourth daughter-in-law, speaking of which, I really have something to tell you." ”

The Queen Mother has never called Taohua by this kind of folk name, it sounds like she is very affectionate, but she has goosebumps all over her body when she hears it: "What's the matter with the Queen Mother?" ”

Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief. Although the Queen Mother is not considered to be courteous, it is definitely not a good thing.

Sure enough, before the Queen Mother could speak, she sighed deeply: "I was hesitant to say anything about this, because I knew that your body had not been very good since you were pregnant-but today you have entered the palace, and the second daughter-in-law is also there, I think about it, it is better to say it." Just a few days after you were diagnosed with pregnancy, I dreamed of the first emperor. ”

What the hell is this! Taohua bet that the Queen Mother would probably not be able to remember what the first emperor looked like in the past ten years, and this time she suddenly said that she dreamed of the first emperor, and it was really a ghost to believe it.

However, Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng immediately said respectfully: "The first emperor was thinking about his mother, so he came to visit in a dream." ”

! What kind of dream visit, if the first emperor really has a spirit in the sky, it is true to hook the soul in a dream, right? Taohua sighed in her heart and didn't say anything.

The Queen Mother glanced at Prince Cheng lovingly, the expression was so vivid as if Prince Cheng was her daughter, God knows that since Princess Cheng married into the royal family, except for entering the palace during the New Year to see the Queen Mother, the rest of the time even Shouxian Palace can not enter, the Queen Mother has issued a decree to her, saying that Prince Cheng is weak, so it is important for her to take care of Prince Cheng in the house, and she does not have to enter the palace to ask for peace.

When this kind of talk goes outside, naturally everyone says that the Queen Mother is compassionate, but who still doesn't understand it when she says this-The Queen Mother just doesn't want to see Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng at all, so this edict is tantamount to telling her not to enter the palace to ask for suspicion. is in such a relationship, at this time she is loving again, the acting skills of the Queen Mother, put in Taohua's previous life, she is definitely a good hand in the entertainment industry!

Taohua was expressionless here, and the Queen Mother had already sighed to Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng: "Where is it for me, the first emperor is for Zheng'er." ”

Zheng'er, that is, Prince Cheng, is known as Shen Zheng. To be honest, except for the time when he came out of the funeral, Taohua really rarely heard this name, and only after thinking about it could he understand who he was talking about.

Prince Cheng was also obviously stunned for a moment, and it seemed that she didn't remember her husband's name for a while, and paused before picking up the Queen Mother's words: "For my lord?" ”

"Not really." The Queen Mother was able to hold it, and her expression did not change because of the disconnection of Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng, "The first emperor told me that Zheng'er is an heir, and he is not at ease underground." ”

The Queen Mother said, and showed a sad expression: "Although Zheng'er was not born to me, but I also watched grow up, the emperor's heirs have been thin over the years, only he has two sons, I thought he was a blessed one, and in the future, I went underground and saw his biological mother and had an explanation." Who knows......"

Although the Queen Mother is acting, when she mentions her two dead sons, she really stabbed Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng. Prince Cheng's tears suddenly welled up, and she didn't care about acting anymore, so she whimpered: "It's me and the prince Fubo......"

The Queen Mother sighed, patted her hand and said: "The first emperor loved Zheng'er very much when he was alive, but it was not good to beat him for him, and he still remembered it when he went underground. ”

Prince Cheng slipped from her seat crying and knelt down in front of the Queen Mother's knees: "Emperor Xie Xian is worried about it, and I ask the Queen Mother to be the master......"

Taohua looked at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law coldly. Is this the first emperor to press her? What kind of dream of the first emperor, she dared to use her head to vouch for this is the queen mother's nonsense. However, in this era, I still believe in this, not to mention that the dream is ethereal, even if you know that the Queen Mother is talking nonsense, you can't prove it.

The queen pinched a handkerchief beside her and wiped the corners of her eyes, and comforted: "Don't cry, princess." is also blessed by the first emperor, isn't the princess of the county pregnant again? As long as this child gives birth to a son, it can be passed on to you. ”

"Exactly." The Queen Mother turned her head to look at Taohua, and said earnestly, "Fourth daughter-in-law, I know you are reluctant, after all, it is the meat that fell off your body when she was pregnant in October." But your second brother and sister-in-law have no incense, can you see it? What's more, that's what the first emperor meant—"

"What does the first emperor mean is that my child must be a son, and I can pass it on to Prince Cheng?" Momoka couldn't help it. I don't know if the temper will always change during pregnancy, or if the mother will react differently when talking about the child, in short, she can't suppress the anger in her stomach at this time.

The Queen Mother choked. What did she say about that? If it is said that it is, once Taohua gave birth to a son who is not a son, wouldn't he be beating his own mouth, and he also debunked the dream of the first emperor? After all, Taohua has only been pregnant for three months, who can tell if it is a man or a woman?

The queen said on the side: "The dream of the first emperor, is it still fake?" The princess of the county must be a son this time! At that time, no matter whether it is big or small, it will be passed on to Prince Cheng, and the first emperor will be satisfied. ”

The Queen Mother's lips moved slightly, and she first wanted to stop the queen from talking so much, but then she suddenly understood, if this thing is done today, who can care about giving birth to a boy and a girl in the future? Not to mention the princess, even the first emperor is useless.

As soon as she thought of this, the Queen Mother felt that the queen's words were very good, so she also nodded: "That's what the first emperor meant." ”

Did the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law lie without blinking? Taohua was a little surprised at first, and then felt a wave of anger rushing to the top of her head - when did the queen mother and the queen care about Prince Cheng, but now they have come to make a mother and son filial piety, and the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, just to take revenge on her, she must be separated from the child!

"In that case, then I'll wait to have a son." Taohua threw down a sentence stiffly, got up and saluted, "The courtier's body is a little unwell, since the queen mother is fine, she will retire first." "She has also been sitting in the Shouxian Palace for a long time, the emperor should know that she has entered the palace, she should come over at this time, why hasn't there been any movement until now? Waiting for her on the road, perhaps?

The queen smiled, saw Taohua stand up, and said as if she suddenly thought of something: "Does the princess of the county have news from the northwest these days?" I don't know what happened in the court in front of me, but I heard that the battle in the northwest is strangely difficult, and the household and military departments are urging for food. King Anjun is in the northwest, so I want to know what the battle situation is? ”

She said with a chuckle in her heart. Naturally, someone in the Yu family was staring at the Anjun Palace, of course they knew that the Anjun King only brought a letter to Taohua when he first arrived in the northwest, and during this time, the northwest had not sent anyone back at all, so it would be strange if Taohua was not worried.

Glancing at Prince Cheng, who was wiping her face with a handkerchief, the queen only felt an indescribable contempt and hatred. She has never liked Prince Cheng, and the reason is simply because the latter has two sons, and she has never even been pregnant. But this stupid woman actually tossed her two sons to death. If this is the case, why would God give this kind of fool two, if he could give her one, how good it would be!

Now that the child is gone, the fool has come to the palace to cry again. Do you really think that she and the Queen Mother will bother to become the heir of the prince? If the Queen Mother hates Shen Shu, she also hates Prince Cheng Shen Zheng, but because Shen Zheng is too weak and has no competition for the dragon chair, the Queen Mother hid that hatred.

What's more, Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng have rarely even entered the harem over the years, and she has never been to her and the Queen Mother to offer a courtesy, and she has not even done any work to save face, and she is counting on the palace to help her? It's hopelessly stupid. In this case, such a fool is simply sorry for himself if he doesn't take advantage of it.

The queen thought maliciously. God is really helping the family. Originally, the Anjun Wangfu was like a turtle with a shrunken head, with a hard shell on all sides, and there was nowhere to start. Who knew that the military situation in the northwest was together, Shen Shu went to fight, but Jiang stayed in the capital because he was pregnant. If the Northwest military situation is not urgent, it is difficult for her to start. If the Jiang family followed him to the northwest, it would be even more out of reach. Now that the situation is so favorable, what is it that God has promised the Yu family success?

What's more, even if the Jiang family stays in the capital, if she always doesn't enter the palace in the name of raising a fetus, she can't personally go to the county king's mansion to pull her out, but she doesn't enter the palace early or late, and she enters the palace today, it must be God's arrangement. Probably, only the fool of Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng thought that he was really here to mention something about succession today......

Thinking of this, the queen couldn't help but glance at Prince Cheng again, and when she saw her crying her nose and eyes were red, and her yellow face was particularly ugly, she couldn't help but twitch the muscles at the corners of her mouth and eyes uncontrollably at the same time. This is both disgust and thinking of herself - now she occasionally looks at the Western glass mirror, and she sees that her face is similar to that of Prince Cheng, but she is a few years younger than Prince Cheng.

Old age and decay...... The queen only felt bitter in her heart. Although she has never been favored by the emperor, and she has never tasted the gap of "color decay and love relaxation", but the two words of color decay alone are enough to make her miserable, not to mention that there is a young and beautiful Jiang next to her? However, when this thing is done, no matter how young and beautiful the Jiang family is, it still has to fall under her hands!

Taohua listened to the queen's words, but her heart was a little relieved. In this way, the queen did not know that the first day of the new year returned to Beijing, although the Yu family may not tell the queen about something, but if the queen did not know, the Yu family was also hidden from the first day. And as soon as the queen said this, it was logical for her to go to see the emperor again.

The queen watched Taohua go out of the Shouxian Palace, glanced at the confidants and palace people around her, and saw that the palace people nodded, then smiled with satisfaction, turned her head to the queen mother and said, "Queen Mother, everything is arranged." ”

The Queen Mother hurriedly glared at her - Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng are still there! Even if you don't take her seriously, you don't have to say these things in front of her.

Sure enough, Prince Cheng was wiping her face, and said in a daze: "What did Niangniang arrange?" ”

"You don't have to." The queen was not polite to her, "The queen mother is also tired, you can retire." "If this is done today, this fool will be useless, and who will be in charge of the prince when the time comes.

Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng now have a request for others, even if it is a cold face, she has to bear it, although she still wants to ask a few more words in her heart, but seeing the impatient appearance of the queen, she has to get up and salute, and respectfully retreat.

Here the queen couldn't sit still, and the princess Cheng withdrew, so she got up and walked a few steps in the hall, and said impatiently: "Why haven't you heard any news yet?" ”

Counting by the hour, the Jiang family is not far from the Shouxian Palace at this time, where is the news so soon? The Queen Mother was dizzy by the queen, and said impatiently: "You sit down, it's so fast." "I'm getting impatient to do things!

Speaking of which, if the princess and princess hadn't been on the side to help get involved, it might not have been possible. Sure enough, the person who became a mother, once it was about his children, that square inch would be messed up. With this, although Prince Cheng doesn't need it for the time being, there is no need to cross the river and tear down the bridge like this, as if people won't be able to see it. The queen always cares about her head and doesn't care about her head when she does things, and she never knows the truth of being a man and leaving a line.

The Queen Mother thought in her heart, only to see the queen's buttocks just touch the chair, and after a moment she stood up again, she couldn't sit still like a monkey, and she couldn't help but feel anxious: "What are you going to do!" Walking around makes me upset. If you can't wait, let's go back to your Fengyi Palace. ”

At the end of these words, the tone was a little harsh, if it was a different time, the queen would definitely be alive. But today, for some reason, the Queen Mother has talked about this, and the Queen still didn't sit down, but barely stood still, and instructed the palace people around her: "Go and see, what's going on?" ”

Qingyu was waiting beside her, seeing that the queen mother's face was dark, and she was thinking about how to make a round, but fortunately, an inner attendant crept in and whispered a few words to the queen's henchman, and the palace person's face showed joy: "Niangniang, I have already brought people over." "Fortunately, the news came at this time, otherwise if the queen and the queen mother were unhappy again, what would it matter.

At this moment, Taohua was following a palace person on the path in the palace.

Just now when she left the Shouxian Palace, a palace person came out of nowhere, and said in a low voice: "The princess of the county, please come with the slave maid, the emperor is waiting for the princess in the Nuanchun Pavilion." ”

Taohua, a person in this palace, has never seen it, and it looks like she is serving in the Mingguang Palace. However, the emperor always sent Du Neijian to come, and what kind of place was Nuanchun Pavilion, Taohua had never heard of it at all, so he stood up and said cautiously: "Who are you?" ”

"The slave maid is served by the emperor's side in the Mingguang Palace." The palace people lowered their heads, and their attitude was extremely respectful, "The emperor is in a bad mood today, and Du's father-in-law can't leave, so he ordered the slaves and maids to come over." The princess come with the slave and maid, don't let the queen mother and the queen mother see it. ”

Momoka frowned. She was going to see the emperor, but she couldn't follow everyone when she came. Not to mention anything else, she now carries the letter sent back from the northwest by Shen Shu in her arms, and she also carries a bun in her stomach, either of these two things is extremely important, she doesn't dare to take risks.

When he was hesitating, he only heard the chaos in front of him, and a fifty-year-old inner eunuch ran over along the path with two little attendants, panting as he ran: "Quick, chase quickly, it's so easy to train the starling, if you lose the New Year, what will you do?"

After the inner eunuch finished speaking, he looked up and saw Taohua in front of him, and hurriedly came over to salute: "The slave maid asks the princess for peace." The two little chamberlains beside him didn't stop, and one of them slammed into the strange palace man and knocked her to the ground.

"Hey, you damn thing!" The inner eunuch hurriedly went over to kick the little chamberlain, but when he walked past Taohua's side, he whispered, "The princess should follow, don't worry." As he spoke, he flipped his wrist, and something appeared from his sleeve and shook it towards Taohua.

Taohua could see at a glance that it was a secret token of the Dingbei Hou Mansion.

There are two kinds of tokens in Dingbei Houfu, one is known to outsiders, and the other is known and can be held only by the most confidants, Taohua has also seen it once in Shen Shu's hand, and it is like a waist ornament, and outsiders don't even know the existence of this token. If this inner eunuch can hold this, it must be someone from the Dingbei Hou Mansion or Shen Shu in the palace.

The inner supervisor said this low and fast, and the token was only brightened and put into the sleeve, if it weren't for the special appearance of this token, Taohua might not be able to see it clearly. As soon as he finished saying this, he immediately ran over and kicked the chamberlain who hit the person hard, and said to the palace man with a smile: "Miss Hongyan is not on duty in the Mingguang Palace today?" I'm really sorry, a freshly trained starling, ready to take it out for the fun of the Queen Mother during the New Year, when taking a bath, one didn't look good and flew away, no, I was busy coming out to catch it, and this stupid thing couldn't hold back. ”

As he spoke, he kicked the little waiter again: "There is a princess here, you dare to be so disrespectful, go back and see if you don't peel your skin!" ”

Although the palace people were hit, it was not very heavy, not to mention that what the inner eunuch said just proved that she was indeed serving the emperor in the Mingguang Palace, which was very beneficial to her, so she was not angry, but said: "I didn't see any birds flying over, I'm afraid that you are chasing the wrong place, so let's go elsewhere." The princess of the county is pregnant, if she is shocked, how many heads do you have! ”

The inner eunuch seemed to be shocked, and he didn't dare to kick the little inner servant, so he hurriedly pulled the person up and retreated to the side of the road, respectfully getting out of the way. Hong Aya straightened her sleeves and said to Taohua: "Princess, let's go?" "This princess of the county is very shrewd, if she really refuses to follow her, then she has to call out the people next to her, and a bully will bow hard.

Taohua glanced her up and down, and nodded slowly: "Okay." "Now that the emperor has arranged it, it seems that she is afraid that she will enter the palace today, but she wants to see what kind of play the queen plans to play.
