Emperor Tongzhi suddenly said the words that had been suppressed in Yixin's heart for decades today, Yixin didn't know how many times he said it in his belly, and he didn't know how many times he had figured out and measured it in his heart. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In the imperial box, the first father still passed the throne to the fourth elder brother, although he was very angry, but he also knew the care and love of the first father, and stored two copies of the edict in the same imperial box, which is unique since the ancestral system of the Qing Dynasty.

In order to compete for the throne, the elder brothers turned against each other, so that their descendants were affected and became troubles.

Could it be that my father didn't take this into account? Two copies of the edict in one box show good intentions. Perhaps his father took into account the benevolence of the fourth elder brother and let him inherit the unification, so that he kept the throne and has been reused and held heavy power in the court.

On the contrary, if my father gives this imperial power to himself, can I Yixin accommodate the fourth elder brother? Besides, he has been haunted by Xianfeng for a period of time after his accession to the throne, and occasionally, there are some non-part thoughts, which is really his own, and today the emperor mentioned this thing that no one dares to say, how can he not be shocked?

Prince Gong knelt on the ground again and cried with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty, why are you still mentioning these old accounts? The minister was really ashamed that he had failed to fulfill the duties of an auxiliary prince. ”

"Sixth uncle, please, I heard that when the first father emperor was in the sky, he also entrusted Gu, although the first father and the emperor were suspected of competing for the throne when they were young, but the first father has always respected the sixth uncle."

"Your Majesty, don't say it, just say anything directly, the old minister lives up to his holy hopes!" Prince Gong said with tears in his eyes.

"I think about it again and again, this Qing Dynasty foundation for hundreds of years can only be inherited by you, although it is not in line with the ancestral system, but this is a foolproof strategy."

Prince Gong never dreamed that what the emperor entrusted to him was actually this, so he was so frightened that he fell to his knees again, and said tremblingly:

"Your Majesty, by all means! The ministers didn't dare to think about it even if they died. With the emperor's trust in the minister, the minister must do everything possible to choose a cure for the emperor, and in case of failure, the minister must also assist the son born to the queen to inherit the throne. ”

Emperor Tongzhi bothered himself and waved his hand to him and said: "The queen is generous and benevolent, and her temperament is also weak, and she has always had a close relationship with the Empress Dowager of the East.

"Once I die, there are still doubts about whether the queen mother can tolerate the queen, let alone the inheritance of the son in the womb."

Prince Gong couldn't imagine that the emperor would vomit his words today, how did he not know the personality of the Empress Dowager Cixi of the West, and he understood the relationship between the emperor, the empress and the empress dowager of the two palaces.

Prince Gong knelt on the ground and was already in tears, he wiped the tears from his face with the sleeve of his robe and said:

"Your Majesty, even if the Queen Mother does not allow the Queen Mother, how many more years can the old minister live? The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty and the Empress Dowager of the West only had scruples about the Empress Dowager of the East and her ministers, and the ministers had to keep the emperor's flesh and blood even if they died. As for the matter of the emperor's entrustment, the ministers really can't accept it, so please think twice. ”

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside, and the imperial eunuch came to report, saying that the queen mother had come to serve the emperor with medicine. Emperor Tongzhi waved him down, and Yi Xin felt that he had talked with the emperor for a long time, which would affect the emperor's rest, so he took his leave and returned home.

The Empress Dowager Cixi was resting against the stove, and Li Lianying came in a hurry and hurriedly let him in.

From Li Lianying's mysterious look, Cixi knew that this investigation must have gained a lot, so she hurriedly retired from the palace maid and left him alone. At this time, Li Lianying stepped forward, bowed down and said to Cixi: "Master, the big thing is not good, the emperor he-"

Cixi was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with him, Your Majesty?" ”

"The emperor is ready to pass the throne to Prince Gong!" Li Lianying said close to Cixi's ear. "What?" Cixi shuddered and said, "Impossible! ”

"This is what the minions have heard, and it is absolutely reliable!"

"Humph! This rebel didn't want to get better, and the mourning family worked hard to raise him in vain! Cixi muttered to herself.

Cixi asked slowly, "What is Prince Nagong's reaction?" ”

He pushed back.

"Is it a true prevarication or a false prevarication?"

"The minion couldn't see his expression clearly, but from the voice, the minion felt that he might be really prevaricating?"

"Didn't the emperor try his mind and have other plans?"

"Master, what do you mean by that?" Li Lianying asked puzzled.

"The emperor first tried whether Prince Gong had the ambition to peep into the throne, and when he said this, even Prince Gong had to suppress his heart and assist the emperor's unborn orphan with this ambition.

On the other hand? He entrusted such an important task to Prince Gong, firstly, to make Prince Gong feel that this was the special grace and trust of the saint, and he could rely on the infinite trust of the emperor to die for the emperor.

At the same time, this also broke the idea of the queen mother of the two palaces to listen to the government again. ”

"This-the slave really doesn't understand, if it is the emperor's orphan to inherit the unification, so young and ignorant, wouldn't he need the queen mother's curtain to listen to the government?"

Cixi scolded: "Why are you so stupid? At that time, the mourning family was not old and had to be old, and became the queen mother, and the queen mother who hung the curtain and listened to the government could only be that slut, and I don't know where to throw the mourning family? ”

"Oh, so that's the case, the slave understands, is this the emperor using Prince Nagong Yixin to serve her?"

Prince Gong's Mansion, he paced back and forth in the study alone, thinking about the conversation with the emperor just now, and analyzing the emperor's intentions.

Today, the emperor put his heart in his heart and said some heartfelt words, which had the meaning of entrusting orphans in danger. In case the emperor dies, what should he do?

Although I, Yixin, am the emperor's uncle, but due to some estrangement from the Empress Dowager Cixi, I and the emperor do not have a good relationship, and sometimes they guard against each other in their hearts. I remember that when I rebuilt the Old Summer Palace, I had a conflict with the emperor, and I almost lost the prince.

Prince Gong reviewed what happened during this period of time with Emperor Tongzhi, and carefully thought about this conversation with Emperor Tongzhi, and decided to go to Zhongcui Palace to discuss with Empress Dowager Ci'an.

The Empress Dowager Ci'an is also restless, since returning to power, although she has lived in the palace to recuperate for a long time, but some recent events can not help but make her heart burn.

Although this Tongzhi Emperor is not his own biological son, he is indeed emotionally better than her biological mother Hou Cixi.

The Empress Dowager Ci'an has always loved Tongzhi, cared about his life, cared about his health, was considerate of his difficulties in politics, and completely loved Tongzhi with a sincere maternal heart, but it was different from Cixi's majesty to let Tongzhi accept her care.

This month, Emperor Tongzhi couldn't afford to be ill, not only did his condition not lessen at all, but on the contrary, it worsened, how could she not be anxious? Especially the disease of the emperor Tongzhi, he was embarrassed to open his mouth to the outside world, which was really distressing and hateful.

When the Empress Dowager Ci'an was pondering, the palace maid came to report that Prince Gong Yixin had knocked on the Empress Dowager. Ci'an immediately ordered someone to let him in, and after Prince Gong finished bowing, he saw Ci'an's teary eyes red and swollen, and comforted: "The queen mother is relieved." ”

"The emperor's condition has not improved in any way, and it has a tendency to deteriorate, how can this not make the mourning family worried?"

"Queen Mother, the minister has a word, please think about it?"

"Prince Gong, please have something to say."

"The emperor has reached this point, what are the plans of the queen mother for the continuation of the unification?"

"What do you say?" Empress Dowager Ci'an asked.

"According to the minister's opinion, the queen Arut is pregnant, and she may give birth soon, and at that time, if there is a prince, even if the emperor is in the sky, there will be someone later."

"What if the emperor drives before the queen gives birth?"

Prince Gong pondered for a while and said: "In case of that, it can be kept secret to the outside world, only saying that the emperor is sick and does not see outsiders, and when the queen gives birth, if it is the elder brother, he will be the person who continues the unification, if it is Gege and then consider it separately, what does the queen mother think?" ”

The Empress Dowager Ci'an nodded, "May God bless the emperor with a healthy dragon body, and may God bless the queen to give birth to an elder brother!" ”

"It's just that we're talking about it, but the Empress Dowager Xi doesn't know what she thinks?" Prince Gong Yixin asked tentatively.

"Her emperor is her own flesh and blood, how can she not think about the emperor's bloodline, and the mourning family thinks that she will handle this matter properly."

Prince Gong said goodbye to the Empress Dowager Ci'an and returned home.

That afternoon, the emperor's illness changed drastically and he fell into a coma. Rong Lu hurriedly sent people to inform them separately that the relatives of the close branches, the minister of military aircraft, the minister of the imperial front, the master of the Hongde Hall and the south study Hanlin arrived one after another.

Li Deli rushed in and out, sweating all over his head.

Suddenly, a famous eunuch hurriedly flashed out and announced in a low voice: "The Queen Mother summons." ”

Entering the Xinuan Pavilion, the princes and ministers who knelt on the ground, the queen mother of the two palaces were already in tears, covering their mouths with handkerchiefs, not daring to cry, only to hear Li Deli saying: "No! No one recognizes it! ”

"How?" Empress Dowager Cixi stammered and asked, looking at Prince Gong with a glance, almost pleading.

Prince Gong, who was kneeling in front, raised his head, looked at Li Deli, and asked loudly, "Why don't you use 'Huiyang Soup'?" ”

"Useless?" At this time, Zhuang Shouhe rushed in, knelt on the ground, and cried and said, "I can't pry my teeth open!" ”

Hearing this, no one cared about the etiquette of the temple anymore, and they all stood up and staggered to the Dongnuan Pavilion.

When I entered the room, I saw that the emperor was sitting with a eunuch holding him, his eyes closed, and there was an imperial doctor holding a medicine bowl with a bright yellow colored dragon, and another imperial doctor holding a pair of silver chopsticks, all standing on both sides of the imperial couch as if they were stupid.

Seeing this, they were all stunned.

When the ministers meet each other, there are all kinds of different situations, whether they are in the palace or in the court, they all know how to deal with themselves, but they only do this, but they don't know what to do? Some knelt down and kowtowed, some wanted to inquire about the truth, and only one person rushed forward to look at the royal appearance, and this person was Prince Gong.

At this look, a heart hung up, he stretched out a trembling hand, held his breath and probed between the emperor's mouth and nose, and then knelt down, with a crying tone, and suppressed the excitement in his heart with difficulty, and said: "The emperor is in the sky." (To be continued.) )
