Mid-Levels Zhai.

Chen Houyun stood in the pavilion, facing the direction of the imperial city, silently counting the heavy bells.

“…… Forty-eight, forty-nine......"

The emperor of Daqing, Chinese New Year's Eve, reigned for eleven years, and the dragon drove Bintian.

Chen Houyun knelt solemnly and waited for a few breaths.

got up again, changed into a gray robe, and said softly: "Someone." ”

Long walked over immediately.

"Pingwu Hou and his wife were robbed of their titles and imprisoned...... Send people to closely monitor the movements of the servants in the house. As soon as they had contact with any outsiders, they immediately reported it to me. The stakes are very high, you must monitor them heavily, and you must wipe out all the forces and manpower in the Pingwu Houfu! No sin can be left behind! ”

"The little one understands!" received orders for a long time and walked into the wind and rain.

Chen Houyun stood quietly in the pavilion for a moment before opening an umbrella and walking slowly.

The house has put away the festive and taboo things, everyone has changed out of bright clothes and jewelry, and in the wind and rain, there is a mourning.

Chen Houyun walked to the main courtyard, and saw that Mrs. Chen was instructing the housekeepers with a serious face, so she didn't bother, and walked to the wing room to see Xiao Chengfang.

Xiao Chengfang was raised very well, and he no longer had the thin and sick state he had when he was born. Although he is not a fat boy, he is also ruddy, very healthy, and does not appear shorter than his peers. What's more, his mind is developing well, although he can't say how smart he is, but there is absolutely no sign of stupidity!

In this way, the whole Chen Mansion is very satisfied. Nothing more!

After all, at the beginning, Huang's body was seriously damaged, and later it was inevitable that he used a lot of decoction to maintain his life, and no one could guarantee that the child would be born, so it must be a good game!

"Daddy!" Xiao Chengfang was already walking very steadily, and when he saw Chen Houyun coming, he immediately put the hydrangea and ran over, opened his arms, and let Chen Houyun hug him.

Chen Houyun squatted down and picked up Xiao Chengfang. Put it on the kang and put it down. Let him do a good job, and smile: "Is Chengfang playing with the ball?" Is it fun? ”

"Okay, good ......" Xiao Chengfang didn't learn to say much.

Chen Houyun was not impatient and asked people to pick up the hydrangea. Very patiently accompanied Xiao Chengfang to play with the hydrangea on the kang again. While playing, he casually coaxed children. Played for about a quarter of an hour. Mrs. Chen also finished her housework and walked over, doing it by the kang, and after laughing with Xiao Chengfang. sighed lightly and said to Chen Houyun: "Someone from the palace came to report the funeral just now...... It's really the emperor's guest. He's just ......"

He was only thirty-five years old.

Always in good health.

In the past eleven years, there have not even been a few early dynasties.

At first, he was sick and didn't go to court, and most people didn't pay much attention to it, just thinking that it was just a minor illness of wind chill and fever. It wasn't until he didn't go to court for many days that the ministers panicked and became suspicious. But that's it, it is estimated that no one could have imagined that in just a few months, he would pass away!

Who would have thought!

Who would have thought!

Mrs. Chen's eyes were red, and she sighed for a while.

Chen Houyun said softly: "The so-called blessing and misfortune are like this. He is the Son of Heaven, and he cannot be immune to all diseases. Not to mention poisoning. ”

Mrs. Chen glanced around and asked Chen Houyun in a low voice: "Houyun, in your opinion, is it really the remnants of Beijin?" "Why didn't she believe it?

Chen Houyun glanced at his mother strangely, and then whispered: "It's Queen Liao." ”

Mrs. Chen was suddenly startled, and the hydrangea in her hand suddenly fell onto the kang, dumbfounded and speechless.

Chen Houyun threw the hydrangea to Xiao Chengfang, watched him crawl quickly to pick it up, and said softly: "Mother, come back to your senses, don't scare your eldest grandson." Besides, it is estimated that there will be changes in the palace at this time...... I tell you, you have to know in your heart. ”

Mrs. Chen was stunned: "There are still changes in the palace?" What could happen! Didn't you make a prince? The Queen Mother is also in charge! "She immediately thought of a coup d'état and usurped the throne.

A trace of helplessness flashed in Chen Houyun's eyes, and he shook his head and said, "It's not what you think." It's the Empress Liao...... Think about it, since the Queen Mother and King Ying know that the queen has poisoned the emperor, no matter why, they will not leave the queen Liao again! Now that the emperor has died, I am afraid that after a while, there will be a round of mourning in the palace. ”

In other words, the queen will also die.

Mrs. Chen was in a trance and didn't come back to her senses for a long time. After thinking about it carefully, I felt that Chen Houyun's speculation was very reasonable, and I couldn't help but sigh and said: "The Liao family was also a very good girl's family back then, and she was quite talented......

Chen Houyun said softly: "So, that palace is really not a good destination for the girl's family." ”

Mrs. Chen nodded silently.

She remembered Old Man Chen's persistence again, Chen Junyi back then, Concubine Shun who had passed away not long ago, and finally Shen Rouning and sighed lightly.

Palace.

The queen mother walked out of Kunning Palace with a pale face. She didn't let anyone hold an umbrella, and let the rain quickly drench her clothes. She stepped on the rain step by step, dragged the heavy skirt, step by step, from Kunning Palace to Qianqing Palace.

She walked slowly across the dry ground of the Qianqing Palace, leaving a long mark of water.

"The concubine knocks on the emperor!" The queen knelt down in front of the dragon couch and wept bitterly.

The Queen Mother sat on the side with red eyes, there were no tears in her eyes, she just stared at the queen's body, cold and bitter. King Ying stood behind the Queen Mother with a cold face.

The crown prince and the second prince knelt on the ground, tears streaming down their faces, heavy grief, but they didn't make any sound.

The whole palace only heard the sound of the queen's mother's howl.

Some palace concubines and nobles rushed over, but they were stopped by the eunuchs and did not allow them to get too close. These people were still in their youth, and when they suddenly heard that the emperor had died, they were a thunderbolt and were dazed and panicked. At this time, they naturally didn't dare to make any trouble, so they found a place to kneel a little outside and wept in a low voice.

When the crown princess came over, she was also cautious when she saw this, but she knelt in front of the palace concubines and did not step forward.

Liao cried for half an hour before he stopped.

She stood up, looked at her two emaciated sons, showed a trace of reluctance and guilt in her eyes, and whispered to the prince: "Prince, you are the elder brother, you will take care of your younger brother in the future." ”

The prince knelt there, looking up at the queen, his lips twitching to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

The queen mother didn't look at the prince again, turned to look at the queen mother, smiled sadly, then knelt down, and said in a low voice: "Son, say goodbye to the queen mother!" ”

"If you don't want to die, the mourning family will announce what you have done, abolish the crown prince after the abolition, and support King Ying to ascend the throne! I believe that after the ministers of the DPRK and China learn the truth, they will only spit on you and condemn you together with the mourning family! And you, the abolished queen, will also affect the Liao family! If you die simply, you're still the queen! The crown prince will be able to ascend to the throne as usual! ”

"The choice is yours!" (To be continued.) )
