Chapter 389: Aunt Du Fu Returns Home
br>
The queen mother in the palace was seriously ill again, the emperor personally sat in the queen mother's Cihe Palace, and the imperial hospital envoy and the court judge led the imperial doctors, discussing the queen mother's condition without sleep, followed by bowls of bitter medicine juice, boiled and sent to the dormitory, and the dormitory was either the queen or Concubine Yang and others personally fed the medicine.
The queen mother said that she was seriously ill, and her eyesight was good, and she knocked over the medicine bowl three times and twice, and the end was fast and accurate, splashing the queen, Concubine Lan and others all in a wolf, and only Concubine Yang and Princess Huai survived.
If it was usual, the queen and the queen were made difficult by the queen mother, and Concubine Yang couldn't be happier!
But that's usual, today the emperor is sitting outside, the concubines in the harem from the queen down, everyone is splashed with the medicinal juice, except for the two of them, Concubine Yang is twisting a handkerchief in her hand, and she scolds in her heart, the queen mother is pulling hatred for their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law!
The emperor heard the exclamations of the queen and others, and ordered the attendants to go in to investigate, and learned that it was the queen mother who frequently knocked over the medicine bowl, so he hurriedly got up and entered.
As soon as he entered the dormitory, he didn't wait for the queen mother to speak, he first opened his mouth to reprimand the queen and others, and then knelt down to plead guilty, "It's all sons and daughters who are not filial, thinking that they are useful, but I don't want to let the queen mother be wronged. ”
The emperor sat on the edge of the bed, personally fed the queen mother, the queen mother opened her mouth to say no, the emperor held the spoon of the medicine has arrived, a slight force of the medicine into the throat, the queen mother swallowed the bitter and spicy medicine into the throat, the heart is angry.
The Queen Mother knows that she is not sick, I don't know if it will be an obstacle if she eats this medicinal juice? The Queen Mother was very annoyed at this time. Why did Fang Cai deliberately splash the medicinal juice so that the queen and the others were wet!
Don't think it's a good thing to let the emperor condescend to feed the medicine by hand, you must know that the emperor has been raised by gold and jade since he was a child. How many times have you waited for someone! Let him feed the medicine, he doesn't know how to blow cold and then feed it, scoop up the spoon and send it directly to the mouth of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is not proficient in martial arts, the emperor will be martial!
The Queen Mother didn't open her mouth, the room was full of people watching, was she embarrassed not to open her mouth to take Qiao? You must know that the emperor is accompanied by the historians. The queen mother was not the emperor's biological mother, so the emperor served the decoction with her own hands. She dared not to open her mouth, the historian is not a vegetarian! This is not his own son, it is enough to be able to do this part! The Queen Mother wants to make things difficult again. That's it! The emperor wants to give in again, and the courtiers won't let it either!
The Queen Mother was depressed and died!
Obediently drank the medicine, the emperor was satisfied, and asked the hospital to come and ask for a pulse, everyone knows that this medicine is not an elixir, how can it be effective so quickly, not to mention that the queen mother's illness is pretended, and the medicine boiled for her to drink is just a soup recipe for replenishing the body. It's just a joke!
The emperor, the imperial doctor, and the concubines all know that the queen mother is pretending, but everyone is struggling with their acting skills, and the court judge can sit firmly in the position of the court judge of the Tai Hospital. Naturally, he is also a master, I saw that he asked the Queen Mother for a serious pulse, got up and returned to the emperor about the Queen Mother's illness, nothing more than the emperor's filial piety touched heaven and earth, and the Queen Mother's condition improved greatly.
The Queen Mother closed her eyes and endured the pain of her tongue being burned, as well as the numbness and spiciness. Listening to the court judge pat the emperor, I almost gritted my teeth. I'm afraid that I will open my mouth to curse as soon as I open my eyes.
The emperor smiled and looked at the queen mother who closed her eyes on the bed, and asked the hospital envoy to ask for the pulse, and then asked all the imperial doctors who went to the Cihe Palace to listen to the dispatch to ask for the pulse one by one, the emperor was very patient to listen to the imperial doctors report the queen mother's condition, and saw that the queen mother's face was getting heavier and heavier, and the hand twisting the futon was bulging, so he finally got up and led the concubines to leave, and said before leaving, "The queen mother is resting, and after lunch for a while, she will come and serve the decoction with her own hands." ”
The Queen Mother opened her eyes sharply, and her gaze was like lightning shooting at the emperor, but unfortunately the emperor had turned around and went out, and the Queen Mother only saw the back of the heads of the people who were following in the harem.
"Emperor, they're gone?" The Queen Mother asked in a hoarse voice, Female Official Su was held tightly by the Queen Mother, she had to ask the palace maids standing by the door, those palace maids seemed to be scared stupid, and Female Official Su asked twice before coming back to her senses.
"Back to my aunt, the emperor has left the Cihe Palace." Standing outside the door, a clever palace maid came in.
The Queen Mother patted Lady Su's hand, "Help me up, bring the basin over, I'm going to spit it out." ”
The clever palace maid hurriedly ran to the washstand to bring the copper basin on the shelf, and the female official Su looked dumbfounded, she really brought the basin! There are special spittoons for spitting in the Queen Mother's palace.
The Queen Mother grabbed Lady Su's hand with her left hand, put her right hand into her mouth, and slashed her throat to spit out the medicine she had just drunk, but she retched for a long time and it didn't work, but she tossed herself enough.
"Mother, don't pick it! There are our people in the hospital, and the medicine sent in is fine. Female Officer Su persuaded with an unbearable face.
After the emperor fed the queen mother, he asked the imperial doctors to take turns to ask for pulse, and the medicinal juice had already been swallowed in the stomach, so how easy was it to spit it out? If the Queen Mother is ruthless to herself, it may be possible to spit it out if she is desperate to pick it out, but unfortunately she was born delicate, and she can't be ruthless to herself, and she is so sad that she dies after picking a few times, but she can't spit out the medicine.
"Go to the hospital to get medicine, the tongue of the mourning family is hot, it hurts!"
Female Officer Su received the order and hurriedly instructed someone to go to the imperial doctor to get medicine.
The Queen Mother was tired and leaned on the pillow of Qingdi Tuanfu, the female official Su finished the order, poured a cup of tea, the Queen Mother took over, the tea cup with a moderate temperature floated with the fragrance of elegant tea, the Queen Mother couldn't help but take a deep breath, let the tea fragrance around her nose, and her cold hand warmed up with the tea cup, she was a little more energetic, and noticed that Concubine Yang and Princess Huai were not present.
"What about Concubine Yang and Princess Huai?" The Queen Mother asked wryly.
"Concubine Yang saw that Princess Huai's complexion was not good, so she took people back to the palace."
The Queen Mother snorted coldly, "The mourning family is sick here!" It's good for their mothers and sons, they don't wait here at the mourning family, they all retreat back to the Linhua Palace, what about King Huai? Followed? ”
The Queen Mother felt that since she became married to the king, Concubine Yang had an estrangement with her, and she wanted to talk to Concubine Yang several times, but Concubine Yang reacted coldly, which made the Queen Mother extremely unhappy, the white-eyed wolf who was not grateful. I don't want to think about it, if it weren't for her insistence, she Yang Yuanxue would have been able to enter the palace? It can please the emperor. Did you give birth to three sons and a daughter?
Yuan Lu's life is hard, she passed by the queen, and she didn't even have the opportunity to enter the palace as a concubine, her aunt felt sorry for her marriage and let her daughter marry King Huai, could she still be wronged by King Huai? When the Queen Mother thought of this, she suddenly felt empty-hearted, King Huai was indeed wronged! The Hou Shizi of Xiangcheng does not learn and has no skills. The Marquis of Xiangcheng has no achievements, such a Yue family is for King Huai, who intends to compete for the crown prince. Not only did it not help, but it also pulled its hind legs.
Princess Huai has not yet entered the door, and Princess Cheng has only been in the door for a long time, and the good news has already been spread!
and Yang Yanxi. Thinking of this enemy, the Queen Mother felt panicked!
It's not that they don't know that Yanxi's dead girl likes King Cheng, speaking of which, Shiyi Lang is willing to contribute to deal with the Fan family, and it is also because Yanxi heard that Concubine Lan intends to hire Fan Anyang as the main concubine for King Cheng, Yanxi is not angry, and she is crying with Shiyi Lang, so she instructed Shiyi Lang to make a move.
But Yanxi is the daughter of the Yang family, how can she marry King Cheng. Concubine Lan is Mrs. Fan's niece! The Queen Mother hated Mrs. Fan deeply, if it weren't for him, how could the first emperor not agree to Yuan Lu marrying the emperor? Years of hope have come to naught. It's that she herself can't bear the blow, let alone Yuan Lu!
Unable to enter the East Palace, she had no chance with the back seat, and the Queen Mother and the Marquis of Fuyang had to marry her hastily. Who knew that guy was an embroidered pillow, but he was bright on the outside but full of poisons on the inside.
Mrs. Xiangcheng Hou was extremely reluctant to let her daughter-in-law enter the palace. After all, Yang Yuanlu was the candidate for the crown princess supported by the Queen Mother, and after entering the Zhu family, the Queen Mother felt distressed when she saw her niece once, and often supported her niece, and anyone who was a mother-in-law did not want to have a daughter-in-law who was difficult to handle, especially a daughter-in-law who was a backer of the Queen Mother's aunt.
Mrs. Xiangcheng Hou is not a stepfamily, she is a yuan match, she wants to take a daughter-in-law who is not in good health, that is more than a means, Yang Yuanlu only gave birth to a daughter and no son, and her husband naturally accepted a concubine to collect the house.
Even if the Queen Mother knew that Yang Yuanlu was wronged, she couldn't do anything.
Mrs. Xiangcheng Hou is Yang Yuanlu's serious mother-in-law, she wants to rub her daughter-in-law, even if she is the queen mother, she can't meddle in the courtier's house.
The Queen Mother thinks about the Yang family wholeheartedly, and always feels that she owes Yang Yuanlu, when she begged for her only daughter to come to her for life, how could the Queen Mother ignore it?
After retiring from waiting for the people, the Queen Mother pulled the female official Su to complain about Concubine Yang's ignorance and Princess Huai's frailty, "When the mourning family promised to Huai Princess and her mother and give her the position of concubine, I didn't expect her to be so weak that she couldn't even make a round house, is this the fault of the mourning family?" ”
Female official Su secretly slandered herself, the queen mother only has the Yang family in her heart, don't blame Concubine Yang for being estranged from her, Yang Yanxi escaped marriage and shouted that she wanted to marry the sixth prince, clamoring not to be a side concubine, to be a concubine, isn't she dissatisfied with the marriage arranged for her by the queen mother? It's all slapped in the face like this! The Queen Mother also protects the Yang family.
Today, the emperor has set the queen mother in front of everyone! It's a pity that the Queen Mother, who has always prided herself as smart, hasn't reacted yet! Female official Su lowered her eyes to hide the sympathy in her eyes, and when she raised her eyes again, it was already clear.
"Niangniang, the aunt and wife of the Yang family, mother and daughter, did you have a conflict with something? You see, before they got married, they were very spoiled in their parents' family, but after they got married, this luck weakened, and the body of the eldest aunt and wife weakened all of a sudden. ”
The Queen Mother nodded, "Dehui was also physically strong when he was a child, how could he have an accident on the day of marriage, and this body is so bad that it can't even be a round house!" ”
"Yes! Oh, yes! Do you want Mrs. Fuyang Hou to go to the temple, or go to the Taoist temple to pray for their mother and son? Female official Su patiently persuaded and led the Queen Mother's mind to the topic of gods and Buddhas.
After the queen mother is old, she has to recite the scriptures every day to calm the nerves, why the first emperor is only the current emperor's son, the queen mother is indispensable.
From Yang Yuanlu's mother and daughter to the thin heirs of King Huai's mansion, the Queen Mother was determined to add beauty to King Huai, and Lady Su smiled and said: "The Queen Mother really loves her grandson, and the two eldest princesses must be jealous!" ”
"What are they jealous of?" The Queen Mother said angrily, "The mourning family is seriously ill, and the two of them have never even shown up!" ”
Don't look at it, the two eldest princesses live far away, and when they get the news and rush into the palace, you will be fine here! You didn't send people to greet you, they didn't hand over a sign to enter the palace, how could they get in?
"You can wronged the two eldest princesses! As soon as you fell here, the slaves and maids sent someone to inform them, but you also know that they live far away, not as close as King Huai, and this back and forth is naturally much slower. ”
"Alright! How much did the two of them give you good things to say good things for them in front of the mourners? ”
Female official Su smiled and said, "The conscience of heaven and earth! The slave knows that the Queen Mother is hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, after all, you are the daughter who was conceived in October and gave birth to it with great difficulty, how can you not hurt them? However, you should have let the two eldest princesses know that they are your daughters! You see, the emperor is waiting for your decoction with his own hands! If the two of them didn't even come to the palace to visit, wouldn't they make the emperor annoy them? ”
"What you said is that then order someone to wait at the palace gate, and when someone comes, hurry up and welcome them in."
"Yes, the slave maid will arrange it, looking at this hour, I am afraid that I will leave the two eldest princesses to eat in the palace?" The Queen Mother nodded, and Lady Su hurriedly retired and handed over to the fat eunuch to make arrangements.
Not long after, Cihe Palace picked up the queen mother's daughter, the two eldest princesses took the children into the palace together, the queen mother leaned on the bed and asked, "Where are you horses?" ”
"He's gone to see the emperor!" The ninth eldest princess said in a low voice and said to her two daughters, "Why don't you hurry up and say hello to the Queen Mother." ”
"No need!" Seeing that the two cowardly daughters of the ninth eldest princess couldn't even do a good job, the queen mother couldn't help but be depressed. "How do you take care of your children, how old are you, you can't even do the etiquette."
The ninth eldest princess gritted her teeth and said with red eyes: "It's the daughter who is not angry and doesn't teach the child well, which makes the queen mother angry." ”
The Queen Mother was stunned, and she didn't know how to deal with it for a while, and the female official Su hurriedly reminded the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, you are really a noble person who forgets things, last time the Ninth Eldest Princess mentioned to you, I want to ask you for two nurturing grandmothers, you have found a good grandmother, but you forgot to let them go to the princess's mansion." ”
In fact, the Queen Mother doesn't remember such a thing at all!
The Queen Mother smiled and explained to Lady Su, and when the Ninth Eldest Princess went back for a while, she asked Mama to go back. When I turned around and saw that the seventh eldest princess was dressed in a gloomy dress, I couldn't help but be angry, "The mourning family is sick, so you wear this body into the palace to visit the mourning family, it's really unlucky!" ”
The seventh eldest princess smiled lightly, "Erchen is a widow, do you want to wear red and green?" The Queen Mother was annoyed by this widow, and felt that her daughter was mocking her, although she was the Queen Mother, she was also a widow!
Female official Su persuaded on the side, not wanting the queen mother's mother and daughter to be incompatible, and soon broke up unhappily, female official Su had to send the two eldest princesses out of the palace on behalf of the queen mother.
The two eldest princesses took the same car, handed over the children to the nurse and the maid to wait, after getting into the car, the two sisters have been silent, suddenly the convoy stopped, the seventh eldest princess ordered someone to check, and soon the palace people reported, "Back to the two princesses, the front of Du Xiang's mansion was blocked by the convoy." This may not be a moment and a half. ”
"What's going on?" The Ninth Eldest Princess asked.
"I heard that Du Xiang's sister-in-law went back to Beijing to visit relatives, because there are many children and grandchildren in the same company, this road is blocked!"
Du Xiang still has a sister? The two eldest princesses didn't know much about the court, and the daughters of the Du family rarely walked around in the social circle, so they listened to it, "Let's go back home by another way." (To be continued)
