Chapter 576: The Truth Is Torn Layer by Layer
The ministers waited for a while, and finally looked forward to the emperor, only to see the emperor supporting the queen mother and walking to the dragon throne step by step.
And today there is a phoenix next to the dragon seat, it seems that the queen mother wants to go to court with the emperor. Also, no matter what the point is, the Queen Mother and the emperor are seated together, and they also say the past. Besides, today's handling is also a royal family matter, and the Queen Mother will definitely attend.
Today's Queen Mother is dressed up very grandly, as if she has been specially prepared for today, and the Queen Mother has an excellent complexion and a ruddy face. Compared with the Queen Mother, who has been in low spirits and sick on weekdays, she really doesn't look like a person.
It seems that the Queen Mother seems to be in a good mood, I'm afraid she has already figured out a way to exonerate the prince of Nangong! In contrast, the emperor's face was not very good, and his face was gloomy.
The ministers saluted the emperor and the queen mother in a regular manner, but their eyes swept to the prince of Nangong. The old prince glared at Nangong Ming fiercely, this son didn't know what kind of sperm to smoke, and he actually wanted to covet the throne. Others don't know, don't you know yet?
The emperor is vicious by nature, ruthless in face, and has many means? Back then, because of a few quarrels, I asked the Queen Mother why the throne was not her own, and asked the emperor to clean it up afterwards. I went to play on the rockery, but I was pushed down by the emperor and almost lost half of my life.
But at that time, he was young, and the old prince just wanted to seek justice, and he didn't have the ability. And the queen mother didn't pay attention to this matter at all, but the old prince himself accidentally fell down, and he was afraid of being punished, so he relied on the emperor.
Since then, the old prince has known that this royal brother has never regarded himself as his own brother, but as an opponent.
If he has a trace of appearance and wants to covet the throne, the emperor will definitely kill himself. But because of the old prince's awakening, he didn't mess around anymore, and he didn't dare to think about the throne anymore. So the old prince survived safely and became a rich prince, but he had no real name and no rights in his hands.
finally met the Lin family, which made the Lin family arouse his mind and began to surround the Lin family for most of his life. Now the old prince can't say what his feelings are for Princess Lin, maybe he just understands it!
So the old prince doesn't want Nangong Ming to fight, the emperor's vicious intentions, will he not be able to see Nangong Ming's thoughts, will he not be able to see the queen mother's intentions?
Even if the Queen Mother no longer looks down on the crown prince and the seventh prince, she can't encourage Nangong Ming to fight for that position, so that she will either lose her life or the entire Nangong Palace.
But the old prince knew that he was now an empty shelf, and he was not close to Nangong Ming, and this son would not listen to his own words if he was killed. The poisoning of the crown prince and the seventh prince this time can be regarded as making this contradiction clear.
I don't know who wins and who loses in the game between the queen mother and the emperor. However, the old prince still hopes that Nangong Ming can really get that position, and what he didn't get is difficult to rely on that rebel?
The Queen Mother looked at Nangong Ming lovingly, "Ming'er, are you okay these days?" ”
Nangong Ming smiled slightly, and said closely: "Grandmother Huang, don't worry, Ming'er is fine." ”
When the emperor saw that the queen mother was so close to Nangong Ming in public, his face was very ugly. "Mother, the ten-day covenant has arrived, I don't know if you can find out. Otherwise, I would have had to uphold the verdict! ”
The Queen Mother looked at the emperor coldly, "Is the emperor so anxious?" The mourning family cares about Ming'er, isn't the emperor happy?
This crime has not yet been confirmed, but when the mourning family saw the emperor like this, they decided that it was Ming'er. The mourning family doesn't know how the emperor's uncle behaves, the palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, and the emperor should not be too cold. ”
The emperor was already unhappy when he saw the queen mother mercilessly throwing her face to herself, but this is the queen mother, the one who helped herself all the way to the throne.
And she is the biological mother, if she treats the queen mother with half disrespect, in the eyes of the officials, it is unfilial piety and disrespect, and such an emperor will be criticized by the ministers and the people.
The emperor suppressed the anger in his chest and said with a dry smile: "Look at what the queen mother said, Ming'er is also my own nephew, and I naturally hope that it is not Ming'er's doing." Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked my mother to investigate this matter later, just to give Ming'er justice. Seeing the queen mother like this, she must find out about the poisoning of the crown prince and the seventh prince, right? ”
The emperor's tentative words were very uncomfortable in the ears of the queen mother, the queen mother didn't dislike the emperor, but since the emperor had a queen, the queen was so unsightly, and then the prince made mistakes one after another.
While the Queen Mother was disappointed in the queen's mother and son, she was also disappointed in the emperor. And in the heart of the Queen Mother, she shouldn't have favored one over the other, gave the throne to the emperor, and let the second child be wronged.
That's why the Queen Mother will love Nangong Ming, what she didn't expect was that Nangong Ming was so competitive, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that this throne belonged to Nangong Ming.
"This is natural, the mourning family really cares for Ming'er, and I don't want to see Ming'er being wronged, so I will naturally check it with my heart. When I was young, there were some things that the mourning family wanted to turn a blind eye to, but not only did it not fall for good, but both sides were offended.
Now the mourning family is half of the people who have entered the coffin, and the mourning family has nothing to scruple about, and the mourning family will not save the grandson and the mourning family, and the mourning family will be the emperor's grandmother in vain. ”
The ministers watched the Queen Mother and the emperor fight, and they all knew in their hearts that the emperor really angered the Queen Mother this time. If the queen mother doesn't have something in her hand, how to spend her old age in the harem, she is really filial to the queen and the emperor, but it's just a show.
Who doesn't know the queen's domineering temperament, and the emperor is used to the queen, forcing the queen mother to retire. The queen mother is cold to the emperor and disgusted with the queen and the crown prince, so she naturally supports the prince of Nangong.
When the emperor heard the Queen Mother mention the events of that year, his face was very ugly, what happened back then. The emperor is angry in his heart, is it possible that the queen mother still regrets letting herself be the emperor?
The second brother's virtue is not the material for the emperor, and even the backyard is not good at cooking, how to govern national affairs. "What the queen mother said is that since the queen mother has found out, it is just right to solve the doubts for the ministers, and it will be fair."
The Queen Mother motioned to the eldest grandmother beside her, and immediately the grandmother brought two little eunuchs up, and the two little eunuchs kept their heads down from beginning to end.
The two slowly walked to the hall and knelt down directly. The Queen Mother said coldly: "Say it, make it clear that the mourning family will leave you alive!" The majesty of the Queen Mother made the ministers mention the spirit of the twelve, and I have to say that such a Queen Mother seems to let the ministers see the queen of the year, the queen who was amazed in the harem.
The two eunuchs were not injured, but their faces were pale, "Back to the Queen Mother, the two slaves and maids will definitely be truthful." The two slaves and maids were originally the little eunuchs who served in the prince*, but since the emperor grounded the prince, His Royal Highness the prince suddenly became very irritable, and he also liked to torture the concubines in the East Palace.
Because of this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly fell ill, and the queen invited the imperial doctor to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the middle of the night, but the prescriptions prescribed by the imperial doctor after the consultation were all prescriptions for tonifying the body, and they were also the medicine that the slaves and maids went to boil, but for some reason the prince was poisoned at dawn.
The queen mother has been guarding the prince's side, and the two of them drove out all the servants in the palace, and only His Royal Highness the prince and the queen's mother are in the palace. The slaves and maids didn't know anything, but they just boiled medicine for the prince's body according to the rules.
However, the next day, the queen ordered the big eunuch who served the prince to be beaten on the board, and there were dozens of eunuchs in the palace, all of whom let the queen beat the board. Because the slave and maid were not in front of the prince, they only did some chores, so they were spared from being beaten. ”
In fact, what these two people said, the ministers who have some eyeliner in the DPRK have long known. That is to say, the prince and the queen were in the palace in the middle of the night, and there were no other servants in the palace.
So why was the prince poisoned, according to the meaning of these two eunuchs, that is, when the queen came, the prince did not report that he was poisoned, so it was the queen and the prince who were locked up in the palace, and only then did they find out that the prince was poisoned, which is easy to make people think more.
The emperor's face was a little unbearable, the prince brutally beat and scolded the palace people, and the emperor also knew that the prince tortured the concubines of the East Palace, and the emperor also knew, although he was disappointed in this son in his heart, but he let people say it in public, and the emperor still felt that his face was gloomy.
And these two little eunuchs bit to death, the prince was not poisoned before, it was after the queen and the prince stayed together, and it was only at dawn that the prince was found to be poisoned, there must be something wrong with this. It seems that there must be greater evidence in the mother's hands, otherwise the queen mother would not be so confident.
The Queen Mother took in the eyes of everyone and looked at the two little eunuchs, "Go down!" ”
After the two retreated, someone came in again, this person was the great eunuch who served the prince closely, and the emperor's eyes darkened.
The Queen Mother obviously didn't do anything, why did these eunuchs all say everything obediently, and it seemed that they didn't suffer any injuries on their bodies. Could it be that the Queen Mother really has a lot of eyeliner in the harem, which she will never be able to find out?
Back then, the emperor knew that the queen mother and the queen did not deal with each other, so he was used to the queen, hoping that he could borrow the queen's hand to encroach on the queen mother's power step by step, until the queen mother was completely overhead, so that the queen mother could really only spend her old age in peace, and she could no longer point fingers at herself.
Of course, the result is also very satisfying, the queen mother really let the queen voluntarily retire, and completely handed over the palace power to the queen, although the queen mother was unwilling, but she also handed it over. The emperor was secretly happy in his heart, but he would make a kind appearance on his face, and he didn't go to the queen's palace for several days.
Then continue to pretend to be a filial son, a good husband. In fact, only the Queen Mother knows that her son has a lot of eyes and the most hard-hearted. Therefore, although the queen mother retired on the surface, she did not ask about the harem, nor did she let the concubine go to ask for peace.
But secretly he is still developing his power, and step by step, under the noses of the emperor and queen, he has replaced the most important places in the harem with his own people. This is also why the big eunuch beside the prince will come out to testify so lightly.
And the Queen Mother seems to have no action, but in fact, it is just because the Queen Mother does not need to check at all, and there is nothing to do in this harem, which can escape the eyes and ears of the Queen Mother.
The important thing is whether the Queen Mother wants to know or not. For the first time, the emperor felt that he had always been too underestimated against the enemy, and he didn't care about being the queen mother, and the queen mother was just making a fake appearance to show herself. If it weren't for Ming'er this time, maybe the Queen Mother would still pretend! R1152
