It was the New Year, and the emperor was worried that the queen mother would not be able to survive this winter, and dysentery was very vicious.

On this day, the emperor ordered someone to burn all the utensils used by the Queen Mother, and the Li family saw it and reported it to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother invited the emperor to enter Cining Palace.

"Emperor, the mourning family has heard about his condition." The Queen Mother said faintly, "Now that the mourning family knows that they will die soon, please ask the emperor to let the mourning family go to the West Palace." ”

"The queen mother's body has not recovered and she can't go to the West Palace," the emperor dipped a handkerchief in water and carefully wiped it for the queen mother, "The queen mother's condition is so severe, how can she be tired." ”

Seeing that the emperor disagreed, the queen mother held the emperor's hand, and her eyes were full of love: "Now that the mourning family is not in good health, I can't do something for the emperor, the emperor has grown up, and the mourning family has gone to see Sister An and the first emperor." ”

Seeing that the queen mother said so sentimentally, the emperor's face softened, and comforted: "The queen mother's illness will be fine, I have ordered the imperial doctor to find Mr. Shenghua Gugu, his old man was saved by the first emperor, and the queen mother has a disease, presumably Mr. Huagu will definitely come to Beijing when he gets the news." ”

"Emperor, the mourning family knows that their body is not good. After so many years, the mourning family has long been tired of it, and it would be good if they could go to see the first emperor earlier. It's just that the mourning family can't rest assured that you and Lan'er, Lan'er has been connected to the palace since she was a child, and she is loved by the mourning family, if the mourning family goes, Lan'er has no one to support her in the palace, and the mourning family is worried about her," the queen mother said, a pair of eyes were both worried and expectant, the emperor faced these eager eyes, but his heart was cold like an ice cube stuffed in, cold to the bone.

"The queen mother, the sons have their own arrangements, and the queen mother can recuperate with peace of mind." The emperor pulled out his hand and tucked the queen mother's quilt tightly.

The Queen Mother may have thought of something, sighed, and said in a vicissitudes of tone: "The mourning family knows that the emperor likes the Ling family's girl, and the mourning family does not object." But Lan'er entered the palace earlier than the Ling family, just because the Ling family gave birth to two princes, she had to be crowned imperial concubines, and now that Lan'er is pregnant, she should be promoted. ”

The emperor nodded, and glanced at the Plantagenet next to him without a trace, but it was very familiar, and when he picked it up, it turned out to be a brand new one.

"Back to the emperor, this goldfinch is a tribute from Meizhou, the last time the goldfinch of Cining Palace was broken, the queen mother ordered someone to send a new one, this thing is very exquisite, the queen mother likes it very much, so it was used not long ago." Aunt Li interjected.

Really? The emperor looked at the crystal clear cup suspiciously, a golden peacock on it spread its colorful tail, fluttering and flying, exquisite workmanship, a rare treasure, only the queen and the queen mother in the world are worthy of this gorse.

The emperor squinted slightly, as if he had discovered something, Aunt Li beat a small drum in her heart on the side, although she was calm, but the cold sweat had already wet her clothes.

"Aunt Li has worked hard, this gorse will be kept by Aunt Li for her mother in the future, thank you Aunt Li for serving her mother, I will be rewarded." The emperor said that he would reward Aunt Li with some gold and silver.

Aunt Li felt that the gorse in her hand was heavy.

The next day, the emperor blocked Cining Palace, and no one in Cining Palace was allowed to leave, and the news spread, and Concubine Lin almost did not collapse on the ground.

On this day, Concubine Lin burned incense in her newly established small Buddha hall to pray for the Queen Mother, hoping that the Queen Mother would recover soon.

I only heard a little palace maid come over to report: "The emperor's former chief steward, Father-in-law Lu, came over and said that there was a will." ”

So Hongqiang and Luping reacted, dressed up for Concubine Lin, and welcomed the holy decree.

"The emperor has an edict, and Concubine Lin Qiao will receive the edict." When Gonggong Lu saw Concubine Lin come out, he took out the holy decree and said.

Concubine Lin knelt on the ground, only listening to Gonggong Lu's sonorous voice read the holy decree, it was the emperor who canonized herself as the imperial concubine, and gave her the title of Yuan.

My heart was shocked, and I received the holy decree in a trance. He also instructed Lu Ping to take some of his own silver and give it to Lu Gonggong, but Lu Gonggong insisted on not accepting it, so he gave up.

The news spread quickly in the Four Corners Palace, the most shocked Queen of the Six Palaces, the queen in the Kunning Palace almost didn't break her nails, Aunt Ning helped the queen onto the chaise longue and served Sydney white fungus porridge: "Niangniang, take a sip." It's going to be the New Year, and now that the Queen Mother is sick, the Six Palaces still need to be taken care of by the Queen. ”

The queen was furious in her heart, and she couldn't wait to tear Qiao Molan immediately, how could she be in the mood to use this white fungus porridge, and she was about to have a seizure, seeing that it was Aunt Ning, she also suppressed the monstrous anger in her heart, and restrained her demeanor: "You put it there, this palace really can't eat it, this little slut Qiao Molan is about to take away the phoenix position of this palace, how can this palace feel at ease." ”

Aunt Ning understood, gently pounded the queen's thin shoulder with her hand, and said softly: "Master, have you forgotten that if Qiao's family can save the child, I am afraid that my life will not be guaranteed." What's more, with Concubine Ning, what are we afraid of, she volunteered to take care of Qiao's body. ”

The queen nodded: "So, can we attack and retreat?" ”

Aunt Ning nodded: "Niangniang is smart." ”

The queen held her forehead, she was really angry with Qiao's.

"Niangniang, although Qiao's power is now, the initiative is still in the hands of Niangniang. No matter how she is promoted, can the emperor give her the position of queen? Just the Lin family, the emperor should also weigh it. Aunt Ning said, and picked up the pear white fungus porridge with her own hands, "Niangniang, if this porridge is cold, it is not good for the spleen and stomach, you have to drink it while it is hot." ”

As soon as Aunt Ning was enlightened, the queen suddenly felt enlightened, and she couldn't help but praise Aunt Ning: "You really understand the heart of the palace, send a letter to Chengqian Palace, and say that the emperor is preparing to make Qiao Molan the queen after giving birth." ”

Aunt Ning was stunned: "Niangniang, what do you mean?" ”

The queen picked up the porridge and sipped it gently: "It's not interesting, stirring up this pool of muddy water, making the emperor even more disgusted with Qiao Molan, this palace believes that Chengqian Palace will not sit idly by and let Qiao's family grow." ”
