Chapter 669: The Emperor Dies
When Liu Yue returned to the Dingbei Hou Mansion from the palace, she only felt that her whole body was out of strength. The Emperor Taishang estimated that he would not have many hours to live, but the Empress Dowager let herself stimulate the Emperor.
The Empress Dowager has reached the last step, and she has not forgotten to mend the knife. It's too ruthless, but unexpectedly, the Emperor Taishang is actually willing to hand over the Imperial Forest Army in his hands, which is also the effect that the Queen Mother wants.
Of course, there is also hope for the Dingbei Hou Mansion, and the Empress Dowager directly took the emperor's orders and asked the Imperial Forest Army to draw some people to guard the Dingbei Hou Mansion.
In this way, even if the emperor and Xu Ge really come to Dingbei Hou Mansion to arrest people, it will not be so easy, and Dingbei Hou Mansion will be guarded by the Imperial Forest Army, and the emperor should be in a hurry.
Neither Madame nor the old marquis thought that this would be the result, but with the presence of the Royal Forest Army, the Dingbei Marquis Mansion had an extra layer of protection. As for the things of the secret path, we must also be prepared, and it is better to rely on people in this world.
It's just that if the Emperor Taishang is really going to die, I am afraid that Liu Yue and Mrs. Hou will enter the palace to cry at that time, how can the two children be in the house?
The old marquis must also enter the palace, and there will be no master in the house at that time, isn't this an opportunity for people to take advantage of?
The question raised by the old Hou Ye still gave Mrs. Hou and Liu Yue a headache. This is something that must be faced, what if there is a Royal Forest Army, there is no one in charge of the house, only two five-year-old children, what can they do?
If a master really enters the house and arrests the two children at that time, isn't it fatal?
"Daughter-in-law grand, do you really see that the emperor is no good? How long do you think the emperor can last? The old marquis asked seriously.
Liu Yue thought for a while: "Grandpa, I'm sure that the emperor will take a breath." I'm afraid that it won't be able to do it until it gets dark. ”
The old marquis actually heard that the Emperor Taishang has been very sick these days, in fact, before the Emperor Taishang forced the emperor to abdicate, the emperor's health was very bad.
Now it's really just a breath, listening to the meaning of the granddaughter-in-law, it is that the emperor made the emperor sick and vomited blood. If that were the case, maybe it would have been dark and he would have died.
Only when the death knell in the palace is sounded, all the officials and women must wear filial piety clothes and enter the palace to cry. And you must cry for three months, there are no adults in the house for these three months.
The two great-grandchildren are in the house, is it safe? The Xu family was eyeing the tiger, the emperor was ruthless, the old marquis sighed, and finally nodded to Mrs. Hou.
Mrs. Hou looked out the window, it was very quiet outside, and she couldn't hear any sound. "Yue'er, in fact, Yu'er didn't die. Yu'er's death back then was originally a plan of our family, but we didn't want Yu'er to continue to suffer in the East Palace.
Yu'er suffered too much, and her mother couldn't bear to look at Yu'er, so she continued to stay in the hell of the East Palace for the safety of the Hou Mansion.
That's why my mother discussed with your grandfather and used the Mo family's secret fake death medicine to help Yu'er escape. And there is a secret passage in Mofu that leads directly to the outside of the city.
That's why your grandfather and I never wanted to tell it, because the more people who know about it, the more dangerous it is.
Especially if the royal family knows about this, it is the Mo family to bully the monarch, and bullying the monarch is a big crime in exterminating the nine clans. Yue'er, don't blame your mother for being good, let alone Mo Li, Mo Li is also thinking about the overall situation. ”
Liu Yue's heart was first happy, then angry, and then calm. Glad that Yu'er didn't die, Yu'er was so pitiful, really pitiful.
It is indeed unfair to God to let Yu'er die, there is still fake death medicine in this world, it is difficult for Yu'er to be the same as if she was really dead at that time. And Prince Renxiao,
It was indeed for the Mo family to put it together, and in the whole capital, no one believed that Yu'er's death was not his doing. And Mo Li has never told himself, and Yue'er is not angry anymore, although such a concealment will be unhappy when he hears it at first, which is also too distrustful.
But this matter is very important, and the fewer people who know about it, the better. Presumably this is also the result of Mo Li's discussion with his mother-in-law and father-in-law!
And the Mo family has a secret way, so that the two children can be sent out of the house unconsciously, and it is best to find a place to live outside the capital, and it is not known to everyone.
In this way, no matter what bad intentions the emperor and Xu Ge Lao have, even if they really enter the mansion to search for people, they will return in vain.
"Mother, I'm not angry, and I don't blame Mo Li. It's just that Yu'er can be safe, it's really good, but I don't know if Yu'er is living well outside, has she suffered any grievances? "It's not easy for a girl to live alone outside the home.
The old marquis pinched his beard, and when he saw his daughter-in-law's reasoning, the old marquis was very satisfied: "Yu'er has been in northern Xinjiang, and when I received that Nangong Ming and Li'er were going to northern Xinjiang, I went directly to southern Xinjiang."
With the protection of our Mo family's army, Yu'er has a good life in the army, and she may not be able to live the life of an eldest lady like she eats and wears in the house.
But being free in the army is also what Yu'er wants. Yu'er has been writing letters back home, but the letters must be destroyed immediately, so I can't show them to you. ”
Liu Yue smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, as long as you can know that Yu'er is safe and you're doing well now, that's enough." It's just that now to send Zihua Zifan out of the capital, you still have to find a safe place. ”
Mrs. Hou refilled the tea for the three of them: "The position mother has already discussed it with your grandfather before, and it is in a small village fifty miles away from the capital.
It was full of our old subordinates of the Mo family, who had nowhere to go after retiring due to injury and illness. Your grandfather will give you a Zhuangzi and let them run their own business and be self-sufficient.
It is not the Mo family's property, and no one will know about it. And it is full of subordinates of the Mo family, who are loyal to the Mo family, and there will be no problems. Your grandfather will also send cronies to escort the two children, Yue'er, don't worry! ”
Yue'er nodded, since her mother and grandfather have discussed it, it must be an extremely safe place. I don't have anything to worry about. Just send Zhi'er and Ye'er away together, and follow the two children.
It's just that these two maids have just gotten married, so let them go away like this, I don't know if they are willing. "Mother, since you have discussed it with your grandfather, it is not too late, let the children go now! For a day in the capital, we have to worry about it for a day.
I want Zhi'er and Ye'er to follow the two children, Zihua Zifan also listens to them, and I don't worry about others. However, since they were going to be sent to take care of Zihua Zifan, I was afraid that I needed to explain it to them. Mother, do you think it's feasible? ”
The people who serve the two grandsons are naturally loyal. Mrs. Hou is also relieved of Zhi'er Ye'er. "Okay, the two of them will accompany Zifan to draw Zifan.
You go and make it clear to the two of them first, if they take good care of Zihua Zifan this time, they will be the heroes of our Dingbei Hou Mansion. ”
"Mother rest assured, the two of them have always been loyal to me, whether I was just a businesswoman at the beginning, or now Mrs. Shizi, I have never abandoned or changed my mind.
If I trust these two people the most, but I still need someone to escort them, I won't understand this month, so I will let my grandfather and mother decide who will be 1"
The old marquis has already decided on the candidates, "I will escort them by a team of soldiers close to me, these ten people are the dead soldiers of our Mo family, and they will protect the Mo family to the death." ”
Now that it has been discussed, several people will act separately, and the movement must be very small, and no one in the palace will know about it. No matter how it is cleaned, there will still be scrutiny, and there must be.
Yue'er told what had happened, and what was going on, and what was going on with the branches.
The expressions on the faces of the two changed from surprise, to worry, to solemnity. Mrs. entrusts such an important matter to herself, she must be extremely trusted, and she must not live up to Mrs.'s trust, this is the biggest idea of the two.
The two of them all knelt down for Liu Yue, "Rest assured, the two slaves and maids have always been trusted and reused by the lady, and they have never been able to repay them."
Now that there is finally this opportunity, the slaves and maids will definitely take care of the two sons and will not let the little masters suffer any harm. Even if we want our lives, we will save the life of the little master. ”
Liu Yue helped the two of them up one by one, her eyes flashing with tears, "I naturally believe in you, and now I rely on you, this is the hope of the Mo family." I'll hand over Zihua and Zifan to the two of you!"
The Mo family is arranged in an orderly manner, and the palace is not peaceful compared to the outside.
The Empress Dowager was guarding the Emperor Bed, looking at the Empress Dowager who closed her eyes tightly and never opened her eyes again. The Empress Dowager finally burst into tears, the mother and son were afraid that only this moment was peaceful, there was no mutual calculation, no mutual suspicion, no hostility to each other. Just like the most ordinary mother and child, sit quietly together.
The emperor and the queen finally arrived, and when they received the death of the emperor, the two of them rushed to this side. Maybe it's because the place where the emperor lives is too far away from the adoptive palace, so the emperor hasn't arrived until now. The Empress Dowager looked at the emperor dressed in bright yellow, raised her eyes, and her old face was extremely indifferent.
"The emperor is really filial, and before the emperor dies, you can't come to see him for the last time. The mourning family has seen what filial piety is. ”
The emperor looked embarrassed, the emperor really died. I thought that when I heard the news, I would be happy and excited, but when I really saw the body of the emperor, I still felt a little sad.
Empress He looked embarrassed, and Fu Fu: "Queen Mother, the concubine is late!"
The Empress Dowager just stared at the emperor, "Don't you want to kneel down for your father?" ”
The emperor was reminded by the Empress Dowager, and knew that he had to kneel. In fact, the emperor has not been on the throne for a long time, but he feels as if he has not knelt down to ask for peace for a long time.
The whole palace is the only one, and I am the only one! "Why did the Empress Dowager say this, I just lost my heart for a while!"
The cold laughter spread all over the quiet palace, making the already deserted Ninghui Palace even colder, there are not many palace people to serve here, and there are not many exquisite furnishings, if people know that it is actually the emperor's bedroom, I am afraid that the emperor's son will not be able to hang his face.
"I'm out of my mind, I'm afraid that the emperor hasn't saluted people for a long time, and he even forgot to salute the emperor! The emperor is really a noble man who forgets things, you can't be in a hurry when the emperor returns to heaven, but this one doesn't even want to do filial piety. Your Majesty, are you so ruthless and have no filial piety to the Emperor? ”R1152
