Chapter 086: Accountability
Cats are docile animals, if it is in the spring, it may be manic, but autumn is not the season for cats to go crazy, and no one pounces on this cat, but goes to pounce on the beauty, if there is no cat greasy, no one believes it.
Moreover, Ru Xuan has heard since she entered the palace that Queen Guo has been a queen since she was thirteen years old, but she is arrogant and has no heirs, so she has always been disliked by the emperor. And Ru Xuan also heard that before the wedding, the emperor had always wanted to make the current Zhang Guifei the queen, but the queen mother insisted on making Guo the queen, so the emperor's attitude towards the queen has always been light.
But the queen is unwilling to be left out all the time, relying on the support of the queen mother, she is often jealous of her, and punishes the young and favored concubines for no reason.
All, the emperor's attitude towards the queen became more and more cold, and he even had the idea of abolishing the queen for a while.
Of course, these are just rumors in the harem, and there is no conclusive evidence.
However, as for whether it was the queen's hand, it is difficult to determine.
Shang Meiren had an accident in the queen's palace, and the queen must be unavoidable. There has been no good news in the harem for a long time, and finally Shang Meiren is pregnant with a dragon species, and suddenly there is a change, and the emperor will definitely be furious and blame the queen for taking care of it.
The queen would not be so stupid to do it right under her nose and find herself a series of troubles, as for the others......
Ru Xuan couldn't guess, and she didn't dare to guess.
The harem battles in the past dynasties are no less than the court seizing power, and they are also bloody and unscrupulous, and the favored concubines will often become the target of the public and will not be tolerated by others.
Who did it still needs to be verified slowly.
"What about Sister Pan Xia, Aunt Feng, and Yu Ling?" Ru Xuan swept around the courtyard and didn't see the three of them, so she asked.
"Sister Pan Xia is inside, the beauty keeps shouting pain, Sister Pan Xia can't rest assured, Aunt Feng and the imperial doctors are thinking about stopping the bleeding, and Yu Ling has gone to boil the medicine." Qiu Ling said: "Now the queen mother, Zhang Guifei, Chang Zhaoyi and others are inside, and I have also sent someone to invite the emperor over." ”
"Yes." Ru Xuan nodded.
"Ru Xuan, the beauty and the little prince will be fine, I just saw that the beauty left a lot of blood......" Qiu Ling said with a whimper, a face that was usually full of smiles, full of tears and sadness.
"No, the beauty is a good person, and she is blessed by the gods." Ru Xuan comforted Qiu Ling and reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of Qiu Ling's eyes.
Qiu Ling nodded, but still paced in place uneasily, holding the handkerchief tightly in her hand, and her fingers were white.
"Don't worry, the beauty Jiren has her own natural appearance." Ru Xuan saw that Qiu Ling's anxious face turned pale, and continued to speak of relief, but having said that, Ru Xuan's heart was also in her throat.
Shang Meiren, born of a closed moon shy flower, a fairy-like person, kind and amiable, but also a full filial daughter, if such a person has to suffer such a pain, it is really a sigh, the sky has no eyes.
While speaking, a eunuch outside shouted loudly: "The emperor has arrived!" ”
When everyone in the courtyard heard this, they gave way so that the emperor could pass through guò, and when they saw the emperor and his party enter the door, they knelt neatly on both sides of the road and shouted: "See the emperor!" ”
The emperor was worried about the situation of Shang Meiren, and ignored the palace maids and eunuchs kneeling at his feet, and just hurried to the room.
However, the eunuch who served the emperor cleared his throat and said slowly: "Get up." ”
"Emperor Xie!" Everyone stood up cautiously and cautiously stood aside.
Ru Xuan, together with Qiu Ling, took two steps back to make way for the emperor's entourage and others.
The emperor, the king of a country, the so-called true dragon son of heaven, is the most powerful and highest ruler of the entire dynasty.
Anyway, it is also a crossing, although you don't want to climb the dragon and the phoenix, at least you have to see the true face of the emperor, otherwise, it will really be a trip in vain.
With this in mind, Ru Xuan raised her head slightly while taking a few steps back to see the emperor's true face.
The contours of the facial features are extremely distinct and deep, and the angular face is handsome and abnormal, especially the dark and deep eyes, which seem to be able to see through people, wearing a yellow dragon robe, which sets off the aura of the whole person extremely powerful, making people dare not look directly.
After glancing at it, Ru Xuan quickly lowered her head, secretly not only admiring the emperor's young and handsome, but also deeply impressed by his great aura.
is worthy of the Ninety-Five, and always has an indescribable aura that oppresses others.
It's just that the emperor's eyebrows and eyes just now always make people feel inexplicably familiar.
Ru Xuan wondered why she had such a strong sense of familiarity with the emperor's appearance, and she always felt as if she had seen it somewhere, but she couldn't remember when and where.
Could it be in a dream?
Ru Xuan laughed at herself for her somewhat suspicious sixth sense, lowered her hands, and quietly waited for the news of Shang Meiren.
In the room, there was a mess at the moment, on the one hand, the medicine woman kept wiping the blood that kept oozing from below for Shang Meiren, and on the other hand, the imperial doctors were discussing how to treat it.
And Shang Meiren, her face was already pale from pain, her lips were a little chapped because of lack of water, and a dense layer of sweat oozed from her forehead because of the pain coming from below.
"Beauty ......" Pan Xia looked distressed, one hand tightly held Shang Meiren's already weak palm, and the other hand picked up a handkerchief to wipe the sweat beads on Shang Meiren's forehead.
The queen, Zhang Guifei, Chang Zhaoyi and others waited silently for news in the outer hall, and from time to time they got up anxiously and walked two steps. Especially the queen, fidgeting, slender and white fingers, desperately pinched the handkerchief in her hand, and broke a nail alive.
"The emperor has arrived!" A shrill and loud voice sounded, and the emperor's figure had already appeared in the outer hall.
"Participate in the emperor!" The queen and all the concubines knelt down to greet the holy driver, and the imperial doctors and the medical women also knelt in a room.
"Get up." As soon as he entered the door, he smelled a strong smell of blood, and the emperor's face suddenly sank, and he asked the imperial doctor headed by him, "How is Shang Meiren?" ”
Imperial Physician Zhang lowered his head, trembled like chaff, and replied tremblingly: "Shangmei's fetal qi is not very stable, and now the abdomen has been hit suddenly, and there are signs of slippery tires......"
This means that it is very difficult for the child to be saved.
The emperor's face became more and more gloomy, his palms were tightly clenched into a fist, his thick eyebrows were twisted together, and after a long time, he replied: "You must keep Shang Meiren's mother and son safe!" ”
"Yes, the ministers will do their best." The chill behind Imperial Physician Zhang was even stronger, and he couldn't help but shiver.
The emperor did not say anything, and sat down in the outer hall with a gloomy face.
"What happened to Shang Meiren, you can tell me." The emperor asked in a gloomy voice with a gloomy face.
In fact, before coming, the palace maid of Chunhui Hall had already told the emperor about the situation, but he still wanted to hear what the concubines present, especially the queen, had to say.
"Your Majesty, is it ......" Zhang Guifei replied first, but when she saw the queen's cold eyes, she stopped and retreated.
The emperor didn't like the queen to be domineering in the harem, but now he saw that his favorite Zhang Guifei looked at people's faces and looked infinitely aggrieved, coupled with Shang Meiren's incident in the queen's palace, the anger in his heart became more and more vigorous, and he glared at the queen fiercely, and said: "Zhang Guifei, you come." ”
"Yes." Zhang Guifei stood up and said unhurriedly: "Today, the queen mother held a banquet in the palace, and the concubines and others were invited to enjoy the flowers, but it was so decent, the white cat raised by the queen mother was playing, but suddenly pounced on Shang Meiren, who was frightened and fell off the stool, so she ......"
Zhang Guifei said the truth, but the words were also clear.
A cat, no one pounces, but pounces on the pregnant beauty, of course, there is something strange.
The emperor understood the meaning and hated the queen more and more.
"Where's that beast?" Before Zhang Guifei finished speaking, the emperor was furious and asked the queen for the "culprit", but the emperor's face was full of anger and his eyes were red, obviously attacking the queen.
"Concubine, concubine doesn't know ......" The queen was startled, and her eyes suddenly turned red.
Decades after marrying the emperor, no matter what mistakes the queen made, the emperor turned a blind eye to the face of the queen mother, and did not punish him severely, but now for the sake of Shang Meiren, she ignored the majesty of the queen and attacked her in front of all the concubines, and the queen naturally felt infinitely wronged.
"I don't know?" The emperor sneered and said angrily: "The order is passed down, the queen is the head of the six palaces, but she failed to protect the royal heirs, and the blame cannot be escaped. ”
You can't go out without an edict, because you want to ban the queen's feet. Obviously, this is the emperor's belief that this matter has nothing to do with the queen, and of course, this is also the heaviest punishment ever given to the queen by the emperor.
As soon as the emperor's words fell, Zhang Guifei and Chang Zhaoyi looked at each other and smiled. However, the queen was extremely unconvinced, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, the concubine is wronged!" ”
"Whether the queen is wronged or not, I will find out, if the queen is indeed wronged, I will make amends to the queen!" The emperor snorted coldly and stopped looking at the queen's face.
What the emperor said was absolute, and there was no room for refutation.
If there is no ghost in the heart, it is natural to wait for the water to come out, and if it is forcibly quibbled, I am afraid that it will make people feel that there is a problem.
The queen understood this truth, and felt that she had to take the opportunity to find the queen mother to cry again, and then let the queen mother persuade the emperor, so she obediently thanked her and left the Chunhui Hall with her entourage.
After the queen left, the emperor's face softened a little, and because he was worried about Shang Meiren's condition, he said, "I will go and see Shang Meiren." ”
Seeing this, Concubine Zhang greeted her: "The concubine will accompany you." ”
The emperor was relieved and patted the palm of Concubine Zhang on his arm.
Zhang Guifei also felt warm in her heart, lowered her head slightly, and smiled lightly. R1152
