Shoulong (extra)
This is the third day after Emperor Ming knelt down outside the gate of the cold palace in front of everyone, welcomed out a concubine of the cold palace, and tried his best to crown her as the queen mother. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Above the court, the conservative and stubborn old ministers who disobeyed the new emperor made a big fuss about this matter, and their words showed that the emperor did not respect the first emperor and queen. Because according to the rules of the Dali Dynasty, Emperor Ming's identity should be to respect his mother as the queen mother, not a woman in the cold palace, and this woman's previous position was low, how could she be respected as the queen mother.
Emperor Ming didn't care about how the courtiers admonished, and even for the sake of a wall of the ministers' mouths, he also directly issued an edict of guilt, which stated his own mistakes in the document, but he didn't mention anything about the removal of the palace maid and the title of Queen Mother.
To put it bluntly, Emperor Ming's attitude is that if you say that I did something wrong, then I will apologize to you. But I want me to correct my mistakes, sorry, don't talk about it!
That's how capricious!
The courtiers insisted on the emperor, although they still felt that the emperor should not be, but after a few useless spitts, they were still defeated, and there was no other way.
In the harem, that is, Lian Yin was crowned as the queen mother, and became the biggest hostess of the harem. Ji Cairen was also named the imperial concubine. He lived in Xingqing Palace with Lianyin.
And the son of Emperor Ji's concubine was also crowned Prince An and enjoyed privileges.
The princess Kexin was also crowned as the eldest princess, and she was more than the princes.
Originally, Lian Yin and Rui Shen promised Emperor Ji the concubine, but now they have done it all.
Early in the morning, Emperor Ji's concubine couldn't sleep, and after the palace maids waited to get up and freshen up, and put on the imperial concubine's clothes, she walked slowly to the main hall of Xingqing Palace.
It is the residence of the Empress Dowager Lianyin, and today is also the day when the Empress and the palace concubines of Emperor Ming came to see the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager for the first time.
When Emperor Ji's concubine arrived, Lianyin had just risen, and she was being served by someone in the clean face. has been with her in the cold palace for so many years, and she has nothing to shy away from, and directly watched Lianyin dressing on the side.
While looking at the clever palace maid curling her hair for Lianyin, Concubine Ji couldn't help but wonder if Lianyin shouldn't be dressed so darkly at this age. After all, compared to herself, Lianyin, the big girl with yellow flowers, is really young.
But as the palace maids decorated Lian Yin little by little, Lian Yin also showed the momentum that the queen mother should have.
After wearing the black and gold embroidered Jiufeng Feitian robe, Lian Yin's tall temperament had to be impressed. Even Emperor Ji's concubine brought respect.
When it was almost over, a palace maid came to report, "The queen mother, the imperial concubine, the queen and the concubines of each palace are waiting outside the palace to meet the queen mother and the imperial concubine." ”
"Hmm." Lian Yin stretched out the sleeves of his robe and said to Emperor Ji's concubine, "Then let's go out, don't let the juniors wait." ”
"That's right." Concubine Ji came up with a smile, stretched out her hand and directly supported Lianyin.
Lian Yin smiled faintly, and did not push away Emperor Ji's concubine, the two of them went to the main hall together like two sisters.
The two sat on the top together, and then went to invite the queen and the concubines into the palace to meet.
Emperor Ming's ascension to the throne was still short, so the concubines in the palace were all accepted when he was a prince. The number of people is not large, and there are only eight people in total with the queen.
The queen came from the Yuan family of Dali Temple, and she had a good reputation before she left the cabinet.
Now that I see it, it's really different.
Empress Yuan was also full of curiosity about the sudden appearance of the queen mother, and as soon as Emperor Ming came out of the cold palace one after another, the queen asked someone to probe it. I asked a lot of people, and finally I got vague information. It is only said that the former emperor's Lian Changzai offended the first emperor as soon as he entered the palace and was sent to the cold palace. The years in this palace have always been spent in the cold palace.
Such a woman can become the queen mother, what kind of story exists in this, everyone wants to know. But all the people didn't know about it.
It seems that the only people who know something inside are the eldest aunt Magpie next to the emperor, as well as Prince An and the eldest princess. But these three are all strong-mouthed people, and they are loyal to Emperor Ming, and it is even more difficult to get news from them.
After Empress Yuan saw Lianyin today, she only felt that this queen mother was really extraordinary, and just looking at it made people can't help but have respect.
Empress Yuan has color, and others are naturally more colorful, and all the concubines are obedient like little sheep in front of the queen mother.
After Lian Yin saw the queen and the concubines, she only left three teas before letting them all disperse.
After everyone left, Lian Yin said to Emperor Ji, "After waiting for so many years, do you want to meet the Empress Dowager Duanjing?" ”
Concubine Ji didn't even hesitate, and nodded very simply and said yes.
"Then let's go meet now."
Concubine Ji smiled.
The Empress Dowager Duanjing lives in Shujing Palace, and compared to the queen and concubines who went to visit Lianyin, no one came to Shujing Palace at all.
Therefore, the arrival of Lian Yin and Emperor Ji also frightened the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace.
When Empress Dowager Ji saw the Empress Dowager Duanjing again, she almost didn't recognize it, the former emperor and empress, who was originally high-spirited and energetic, is now just like the word "Queen Mother", an old woman.
After the Empress Dowager Duanjing saw Emperor Ji's concubine, her eyes like stagnant water suddenly burst into sharp light, and she opened her mouth to call her, "Concubine Ji." ”
Empress Ji was amused by her title, "Queen Mother, you are wrong." Now the concubine is also the imperial concubine, but she is not the little concubine she was at the beginning. After a pause, he said, "At the beginning, the Queen Mother said that she would think of letting me out of the cold palace, and I also looked forward to it on the left and on the right, but as a result, the Queen Mother was still disappointed as a concubine." ”
The Empress Dowager Duanjing pursed her mouth and looked at her without saying a word.
However, Emperor Ji's concubine was unwilling to let go of the Empress Dowager Duanjing, and deliberately provoked and said, "So the concubine has no choice, so she has to change her way to save herself." Only then did he finally get out of the sea of suffering. ”
"It's you!" Empress Dowager Duanjing suddenly jumped up, her eyes were red, and she shouted in a pistling voice, "You killed my Rui Zhen!" ”
"The Queen Mother, don't laugh." Concubine Ji staggered a step and did not confront her, "The murderer who killed your son is yourself." ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" The Empress Dowager Duanjing shouted.
Lian Yin, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but interject, "What Emperor Concubine Ji said is right. If you hadn't tried to do something to Prudence, how would you have lost your own son? ”
Empress Dowager Duanjing quickly looked at Lian Yin, "Who are you!" She really didn't recognize the legato at all.
Lian Yin smiled, "I'm the one who robbed you of your honorable title." ”
The Empress Dowager Duanjing's eyes widened, this is the Empress Dowager crowned by Emperor Ming? She is from the cold palace like Concubine Ji. Who the hell is she? Why was she named the queen mother by Emperor Ming? What role did she play on the road to becoming a prudent emperor?
Just when the Empress Dowager Duanjing asked one question after another, Lian Yin seemed to see through her questions and took the initiative to answer, "I don't have any enmity with you, and I don't want your son to die, it's just that you always want my prudence to die." So, I have to make you pay some painful price. ”
Empress Dowager Duanjing looked at Lian Yin dumbfounded, as if she didn't understand her words.
So, was she really the one who killed her son?
When he didn't say much, a eunuch outside the hall suddenly sang Emperor Ming. This is the first time Emperor Ming has come to Shujing Palace. Just when the Empress Dowager Duanjing thought that Emperor Ming was also deliberately here to provoke and ridicule her, Emperor Ming did not come in, and now the extremely honored Empress Dowager left, leaving only Emperor Ji Concubine to continue to catch up with her.
Lian Yin stepped out of the inner hall, Rui Shen was standing in the main hall waiting for her, and when he saw her coming out, he hurriedly greeted her, "Queen Mother, the son is here to pick you up." ”
"Emperor Lao has gone on this trip, and I have nothing to do." Lian Yin knew that he was afraid that something would happen to him, so he specially ran to pick her up. She didn't delay, and walked out directly with a cautious hand.
The two walked out side by side, paying attention to Lianyin's pace from time to time, and after walking for a while, he asked Lianyin, "Queen Mother, the queen can go and greet you this morning." ”
"Well, it's been here."
"Then ......, do you think you are satisfied with your daughter-in-law here?" Rui Shen looked at Lianyin, his marriage was given by the first emperor, and Lianyin at that time was not opposed. But Lian Yin had never seen Queen Yuan's face, so Rui Shen always wanted to hear Lian Yin's opinion.
Lian Yin looked at him when he heard this, pursed his lips and smiled, "The important thing is not that I am satisfied, but that you are yourself, whether you like it or not." Maybe I shouldn't say this, I just hope that the person next to you is what you like, and the other party is also wholeheartedly devoted to you, that's good. ”
Rui Shen looked at Lianyin silently, nodded after a while, and whispered, "I like and like my person, and I am willing to offer her the most honorable position in the world." And then he said not a word. (To be continued.) )
