Chapter Ninety-Five: Mourning

Maybe he hadn't seen his queen mother for a long time, Zhao Mu almost couldn't recognize the woman lying on the phoenix bed at this moment. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The queen mother, who has always been graceful and luxurious, is now lying weakly on the phoenix bed, her delicate face is no longer beautiful, and she is full of sadness and paleness.

"Queen Mother!" Zhao Mu didn't know what was wrong, and the voices in his throat were all hoarse.

Zhao Mu knelt beside the phoenix bed, held the queen mother's hand tightly, and shouted softly: "Queen Mother, wake up quickly!" Mu'er is back, back to see you. ”

The queen mother's face was as withered, and her eyes were closed as if she were asleep.

"What the hell is wrong with the queen mother? What did the Imperial Physician say? Zhao Mu looked at his mother bitterly, feeling miserable.

Wanqing stood aside, sighed, and said, "The Queen Mother is worried and sick, and she can't eat. Imperial Doctor Li once came to see it and said that the Queen Mother had a heart disease, and he couldn't cure it. ”

Secret trouble? Zhao Mu was stunned, and held the Queen Mother's hand tighter.

"Queen Mother, can you hear your son's words, please wake up?"

Perhaps hearing Zhao Mu's call, the Queen Mother's eyelashes, who had her eyes closed, blinked slightly.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is awake?!" Wanqing found out and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Mu'er?" The Queen Mother's eyes opened, and it was her own child in her eyes, which made her pale cheeks can't help but show a hint of anger.

Zhao Mu saw that the Queen Mother had woken up, and hurriedly responded to her excitedly, "The Queen Mother is me, and she is a son!" ”

The Queen Mother was very weak, she looked at Zhao Mu with wide eyes, and made sure that the one in front of her was really her son, and couldn't help but be a little happy, "Mu'er, it's good that you're back, it's good to be back!" ”

"Queen Mother!" Zhao Mu couldn't speak anymore, so he could only lie down beside the phoenix bed and cry.

The Queen Mother wanted to get up, but found that she was already weak, so she could only smile dryly, and comforted Zhao Mu: "You kid, why are you crying when you're so old?" Don't be ashamed of the truth, if your father knows about it, he will punish you again. ”

Zhao Mu choked, but didn't dare to cry anymore.

Because his father, the emperor, is no longer there. But the queen mother didn't know, Zhao Mu didn't dare to confide the truth, so he could only listen quietly to what his mother said.

"By the way, how is your father's illness?" As she spoke, the Queen Mother anxiously struggled to get up.

Zhao Mu held her down, didn't let the Queen Mother struggle to get up, and hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, if you are inconvenient, don't get up." ”

"How do you wear a dragon robe?" Although the queen mother was physically weak, she was not blind, and then she saw Zhao Mu's sleeves, which turned out to be the dragon robe that symbolized the emperor's supreme, and asked in great surprise.

"Huh?" Zhao Mu's heart tightened, and he hurriedly explained: "It was my father who asked me to wear it, let me wear a dragon robe to deal with the government, and I was happy." ”

"That's right!" The Queen Mother smiled happily, touched Zhao Mu's cheek, and complained softly: "Your father, the emperor, is finally willing to be idle, she is busy all year round, now you will come to help her, I will be much more worried." ”

"Yes, yes!" Zhao Mu only kept nodding, while quietly crying, he covered it with his sleeves, and hurriedly explained, "Why is there still wind and sand in this dormitory, it has all run into the eyes of Erchen!" ”

The Queen Mother was amused by Zhao Mu's words, and couldn't help but reward him, and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, where did the wind and sand come from in this palace!" ”

Zhao Mu also laughed with his mother, he took the queen mother's hand, and said wetly, "That's the son's dazzle." ”

The Queen Mother patted the back of his hand, lying flat on the phoenix bed, and looked at it.

"Actually, I heard it all...."

Zhao Mu shook his head and said with a smile: "What did the queen mother hear?" ”

"Funeral, and death..."

Zhao Mu was silent, and the hand holding the Queen Mother became tighter.

"Your father and the emperor are gone, and I am also the queen mother..."The queen mother looked lonely, Zhao Mu saw it in her eyes, and her heart felt a pain.

Zhao Mu hurriedly interrupted her, "Don't leave me anymore, now that my father is gone, Mu'er doesn't want you to leave too!" ”

For Zhao Mu's foaming feelings, the Queen Mother smiled very gratefully, but she was full of bitterness.

"Mu'er, you have grown up, and now you are the emperor, you have to learn to bear it."

"But Mu'er doesn't want the queen mother to leave me, I'm too lonely!" Zhao Mu couldn't hold back his tears, choked up and begged his mother.

"Really?" The Queen Mother smiled, gently touched Zhao Mu's head, and said softly: "You still have that child in Qiwu, and that Qin Ya, how can you be lonely?" ”

"I...."Zhao Mu didn't say anything hurriedly, but found that his mother had closed her eyes peacefully, as if she was asleep and made no sound. In the dormitory, on the phoenix bed, it is full of silence and blank coldness.

Wanqing suddenly fell to her knees and buried her head in tears.

"The Queen Mother?" Zhao Mu was paralyzed for a while, unable to move.

Empty eyes, looking at his mother who was sleeping peacefully.

Zhao Mu was sad from his heart, and his eyes were black and fainted.

.....

.....

"How is Your Majesty?" Shen Qiwu looked at Zhao Mu on the dragon bed, sighed, and asked softly.

After Dr. Li finished diagnosing his pulse, he glanced at Zhao Mu.

"Back to Niangniang's words, Your Majesty was just sad in his heart, and it was unbearable for a while, so he fainted, and there was no big problem. The minister prescribes a few prescriptions to regulate and recuperate. ”

Shen Qiwu nodded, exchanged glances with Qin Ya, and said to Imperial Physician Li: "It's hard work, I'll tell Huan'er to get the medicine later." ”

Imperial Physician Li nodded, and Fu Shen withdrew.

"The Empress Dowager went on the same day, and I think Your Majesty should admit that she can't stay." Qin Ya was already an imperial concubine at this time, but she was still dressed plainly.

Originally, the two of them were still waiting for news in the East Palace, but they didn't expect the news that the new emperor Zhao Mu had fainted, so they hurried back to the palace. After learning what happened from Wanqing, the second daughter couldn't help but sigh a little.

Shen Qiwu frowned and glanced at Zhao Mu, whose eyes were closed.

"I just hope he can cheer up, after all, he is already an emperor."

Qin Ya let out a "grace", and then hesitated.

Shen Qiwu glanced at her, knew what she had to say, and said, "Since you have something to say, let's go out and say it." ”

The two came to the outside of the hall, and there were no palace maids and eunuchs around at this time.

"He's not a prince now." Qin Ya said in a low voice, she glanced at Shen Qiwu, and there was something strange in her eyes.

Shen Qiwu was stunned, she didn't know what Qin Ya had in mind when she said this, but she still followed Qin Ya's meaning and asked, "Then what?" ”

"The hardest thing to figure out is the emperor's mind."

Shen Qiwu nodded.

"From now on, we will have to be trapped in this palace."

Shen Qiwu was silent.

"Zhao Mu may also change."

Shen Qiwu shook his head and affirmed: "He won't change!" ”

I don't know if it's because of the lack of qi, Shen Qiwu repeated it a little flusteredly.

Yes, Zhao Mu will not change. This is what Shen Qiwu has always told himself in his heart.

Even if he is already an emperor! (To be continued.) )
