"What Jing Niangniang said is not unreasonable, there is indeed a difference between the folk and the palace, but the concubines think that filial piety is not divided into high and low, and a palace wall cannot distinguish two filial piety words!"
Hearing this, Concubine Jing sneered, what could such a pale explanation change? Xia Xue'er naturally knew this truth, so she paused for a moment before asking: "According to what Jing Niangniang said, can the concubines be understood as having bad intentions, but all the princes who enter the palace without being summoned by the emperor tonight have bad intentions?"
After she finished speaking, she also glanced at the other ladies present, most of them were also people who had princes or princesses, and they were naturally a little unconvinced when they heard Xia Xue'er's words, but Concubine Jing was the one who was driven into the corner by Xia Xue'er, so she had to follow her own words, and she also had the courage to say this!
"There is such a suspicion!"
Hearing these resounding words, Xia Xue'er did not refute, but shrugged her shoulders, looking very confident, and did not mess up at all. Just when the others were puzzled, a palace maid came in to report.
"Qi Yu Niangniang, the fifth prince, please see you!"
Hearing this, not only other people sighed, but even Concubine Jing couldn't help frowning, she had also asked someone to pass the news to her son, but after knowing that Concubine Sun had already asked people to inform King Qi, she wanted to take the opportunity to trample on Concubine Sun's mother and son, and find the people who were sent out again!
Just as he was wondering why Qin'er came, his eyes inadvertently bumped into the corners of Xia Xue'er's smiling mouth and the slightly provocative eyes that looked at him, and he understood everything in an instant! No wonder she was so confident, it turned out that she was guarding against such a hand!
Damn, since she could guess her intentions in advance and set up the game, she underestimated this little girl!
Immediately afterwards, another palace maid came in and said: "Qi Yu Niangniang, His Royal Highness King Ning and His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, please meet!"
Sun Guifei smiled slightly, glanced at the people of His Royal Highness, and then turned her head to look at Jing Guifei again, and said, "It can be seen that there is no difference between the palace and the people!"
Concubine Jing was slapped in the face in public, but she dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, the corners of her mouth twitched a few times, and she didn't speak. ćć
Several princes came in to greet them, and the queen didn't keep them much, waved her hand and said, "Go to the apse and see your father!"
Not long after leaving, I heard a rumor outside: "The Queen Mother has arrived!"
The concubines sitting in the room all stood up, "Welcome to the Queen Mother!"
After the queen mother came in, she didn't care about them, and just walked towards the queen in a hurry: "What's the matter?" What did the Imperial Doctor say? ā
No one told her about this, if it weren't for the old grandmother who served her when she got up at night and found that the palace was not quiet, and many places were brightly lit, and after inquiring, she learned the news that the emperor was seriously ill!
The queen hurriedly supported the old man, and while pulling her to sit down, she comforted: "Don't worry, the queen mother, the imperial doctor is treating inside, it will be fine!"
After a while, the doctor came out, and sure enough, as Xia Xue'er guessed, it was undoubtedly a stroke! It's just that the diagnosis and treatment are timely so that it doesn't continue to deteriorate, and the consciousness is already awake, but half of the body can't move, and it will have unstoppable convulsions, and the words are not very neat.
The Queen Mother went in to take a look, and when she came out, her eyes were a little moist, but she was a lot calmer, and she was a little upset when she looked at the beauties in the hall who couldn't stop falling pear blossom tears.
"Don't cry here, what kind of system!"
If you really have seen the wind and waves, your emotions are adjusted quickly, even if you have red eyes, but this exit is still majestic, and no one dares to cry out, either retracting her tears, or sobbing dumbly.
sighed lightly, and then said: "The emperor needs to recuperate, let's go back separately, stay in Yuehua Palace tonight, and make plans tomorrow, if you want to visit in the future, you will either tell the queen to choose, or wait for the emperor to summon you, don't rush over!" Got it? ā
"Yes, Queen Mother! The concubine retired. ā
Qi Qi knelt down, Concubine Jing was really a little unwilling to leave, but with the queen mother's decree, she didn't dare to say much, so she had to look at Xia Xue'er and Sun Guifei hatefully and left.
In the originally lively hall, only the three princes of the apse and the four people of the front hall, Sun Guifei, the queen, the queen mother and Xia Xue'er were left.
After calming down, the Queen Mother moved her eyes to Xia Xue'er.
"Princess Qi is about to give birth, right?"
Hearing this question, Xia Xue'er bowed slightly, and said, "If you go back to the emperor's grandmother, there are less than three months."
"Hmm." The Queen Mother nodded, didn't say much, but looked away, took the hands of the queen and Sun Guifei, put them together, and said: "Now that the emperor is sick, you need to work together, don't let people with bad intentions take advantage of loopholes and disturb the harem unpeacefully!"
"The teachings of the queen mother/queen mother, the concubines keep it in mind!"
The queen and Sun Guifei said in unison, and the queen mother nodded when she saw this. Although she is old and dazzled, her heart is bright! The division of power in this harem and the struggle for power in the previous dynasty, none of them can escape her eyes. The queen has a gentle temperament, never fights for the wind and is jealous, and there is no prince who can inherit the unification, so there is no conflict of interests between Sun Guifei, and Sun Guifei, who has been a concubine for so many years, has prestige, and the two of them govern the harem together, and she is an old woman who is at ease!
The Queen Mother sighed and said, "Now that the emperor is sick and state affairs cannot be ignored, it is time to appoint a crown prince to supervise the country!"
Xia Xue'er stood aside, naturally she heard this, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous in her heart, King Yan and King Ning were eyeing each other, and the other courtiers were not aligned, if it weren't for the crown prince who was personally ordered by the emperor, I am afraid that he would not be able to convince the public!
Sent away the queen mother and the queen, Xia Xueer and Ou Xuanlong stayed in the Yuehua Palace that night, the emperor was moved back to the Chang'an Palace after dawn, the early dynasty was presided over by the queen mother, and after the emperor's illness was explained, the ministers discussed the prince candidate, and the quarrel was inextricable, and it was not finalized until noon.
Sun Guifei stayed awake all night, and waited anxiously in the Yuehua Palace early in the morning, and sent batches of eunuchs and palace maids to inquire about the news, but they all returned in vain. At this time, Qin Zhen, who was beside the emperor, came, saying that the emperor had summoned Xia Xue'er to Chang'an Palace.
A sedan chair has been prepared outside the door of Yuehua Palace, and Xia Xue'er was carried to the Chang'an Palace, Qin Zhen sent her into the apse and then retreated, and there was only one emperor in the whole hall, half-lying on the bed, like a broken puppet.
Xia Xue'er stepped forward and saluted, he trembled his hand to signal Xia Xue'er to come closer, and then pointed to her stomach, saying something bits and pieces. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
