Xuan Lili got back on the sedan chair, but did not go to Guan Sui Palace, but went directly to Cining Palace.

"The emperor came just in time to have dinner with the mourning family." The Empress Dowager Xiaoren was also very happy to learn that the sacrifice was very smooth, and specially asked the Sishan Palace to make a table of vegetarian dishes to show her sincerity.

Xuan Lili happily sat down, had dinner, and chatted with his mother.

"Since the beginning of this year, it has been smooth sailing, and now I have been drawn again, thanks to God's blessing." The mother and son sat on the brocade throne on the left and right, and the queen mother held the teacup presented by Laixi and sighed.

Xuan Lianli took a sip of tea and smiled: "Exactly, just wait for Qin Tianjian to observe the celestial phenomena, if it is the same, you can rest assured." ”

"In this case, it is better for the emperor to wait with the mourning family for the son." The Empress Dowager Xiaoren was in a good mood, and she had no intention of sleeping peacefully because she was concerned about the society, so she made this mention.

When the child is in power, the heavens and the earth are reincarnated, and it is a good time to observe the heavens at night.

Xuan Lonely has a reason not to agree: "It's so good, I'm afraid that the queen mother's body can't bear it, why don't you go to sleep for a while, your son stays here, and as soon as it comes out, he will wake you up." ”

The Queen Mother waved her hand, "I'm getting old, and I'm getting less and less sleepy every day." ”

Xuan Lonely no longer insisted, accompanied the old man while gossiping and waiting, it was not difficult to pass the time, and as soon as the time passed, the mother and son invariably stopped talking.

After a while, someone came to report: "Lord Qintianjian Wang has something to report." ”

"Invite him in." The Queen Mother couldn't wait, and then the little eunuch led someone in.

Lord Zhengwang, the chief supervisor of Qin Tianjian who specializes in observing celestial phenomena, stepped forward to salute in a hurry, and replied with a very surprised expression: "Weichen watched the sky at night, originally the moon and stars, I don't want the moon to suddenly be blood-red, as if it was stained with blood, as soon as the blood moon eclipse comes out, there will be a big demon in the world." ”

"Blood Lunar Eclipse?" The Empress Dowager Xiaoren screamed out loudly, if she remembered correctly, the first emperor also appeared once when he was there, and many people died.

Xuan Lonely had heard people talk about it, and he couldn't help but gaze: "Demon? Are you sure? ”

"Can you determine the specific location of this demon?" The Empress Dowager Xiaoren was convinced.

"Weichen measured the direction, this demon is located in the first city of Jinxiu, the southeast, the only thing to be thankful for is that it has not yet been born." Lord Wang replied with a worried face.

The Empress Dowager Xiaoren muttered about the celestial phenomena: "The first city of splendid beauty should refer to the imperial palace, which is located in the southeast and has not yet been born?" That's not ......"

The palace lives in the southeast, and there is no one else except Dou Lianyi who is pregnant with a fetus.

"Impossible." Xuan Lili also realized it, and denied it.

The prince of the dignified Xuanyue Dynasty, how can he be a demon, it must be nonsense from these people.

"Emperor, don't lie, otherwise you will anger the heavens and you will be punished by heaven." The Empress Dowager Xiaoren was so bluffed that she immediately reprimanded, and then asked: "Is there a solution?" ”

Lord Wang nodded: "There are two ways, one is to prevent it from appearing in this world, which is the root cause; The second is to move to its mother, leaving the suitable ground qi, hoping to reduce the demon qi, but whether this method can work or not, we have to continue to observe. ”

"Do you understand the celestial phenomena, if you don't understand, change the person and test again." The demon said that he had not fully believed it, and it involved the woman he loved deeply, and he felt ridiculous.

Lord Wang hurriedly knelt down and defended himself in fear: "Weichen has been observing the heavens for more than 30 years since the first emperor, and he has never looked away. ”

"Bastard, you dare to be alarmist, believe it or not, I really got rid of you." Xuan Lili was annoyed, and reprimanded loudly in court.

Lord Wang fell to the ground and did not dare to say anything more.

"This kind of thing would rather be believed than believed, emperor, decide." The Empress Dowager Xiaoren is old, and she is a person who has experienced it once, so she is convinced of this.

Xuan Lonely departed from his body, and Wen Yan said his thoughts: "It's better to do this, take a look first, wait for the next full moon night, and then send others to re-observe the celestial phenomena, if it is still like this, it is not too late to make a decision." ”

"What do you mean, Lord Wang?" The Empress Dowager Xiaoren knew that he was reluctant, so she asked the people in the hall for advice.

Lord Wang replied: "It is estimated that there is still some time before the birth of the monster, and I believe that the danger will not appear immediately, for the sake of prudence, it can be done according to the emperor's will." ”

"Then do it, you get up, go back and pay close attention, this matter must not be publicized, if it spreads out and disturbs people's hearts, be careful of your black yarn." Seeing that there was room for maneuver, Xuan Lili breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart was very chaotic.

"Yes, Weichen retired." Lord Wang was relieved, quickly got up from the ground, and retreated.

The Empress Dowager Xiaoren couldn't let go, and her brows were tightly wrung together, "Emperor, okay, how can this be, the emperor and grandson who the mourning family has been looking forward to are really the reincarnation of demons?" ”

"No, please believe the sons, they must have seen it wrong, don't worry too much." Xuan Lili hurriedly comforted him, and said, "It's late at night, let Aunt Laixi help you to rest, and my son has also retired." ”

"Go ahead."

It was useless to say more, the Empress Dowager Xiaoren waved her hand, signaling him to rest for a good time, and she walked to the dormitory with the support of Laixi.

As a result, before the day of the full moon of the next month, the emperor's desk received an urgent letter, saying that there was a sudden earthquake in Hedong last night, countless houses collapsed, and countless people were killed and injured.

The emperor urgently summoned all the ministers into the palace to discuss countermeasures, and the Yixin Hall was lit up all night.

And the celestial phenomena of the demon in the world in the palace are not far away, not half a moment, it will spread throughout the harem, for a time, everyone is in danger, just imagine the same neighborhood with the demon, who does not feel terrible.

The Queen Mother urgently summoned the members of the harem to gather in the main hall of the Queen Mother, and even the ladies of low status also came, except for a chair that was empty, everyone glanced at the empty chair from time to time, and exchanged glances with each other tacitly, and there was a tense atmosphere in the air.

"Queen Mother, what can I do?" The queen looked worried.

"What else can I do, this demon can't stay." The interface is Du Wanying.

"Didn't the emperor say that he would wait until the next full moon night to watch the sky and make a decision at that time, what are you anxious about?" As soon as Xia Ruotong heard the news, she pinched a handful of sweat for her good sister, and now she couldn't help sneering when she saw that someone was in a hurry.

"Yes, after all, he is a prince, so he can't act rashly." Yang Ningzhi helped on the side.

Empress Dowager Xiaoren waved her hand irritably: "I called you here to come with ideas, not to quarrel, queen, you are the head of the harem, you say it first." ”

"The queen mother, the concubines have no idea, if they let it go, they are afraid of angering the heavens and inviting greater revenge; If you really take out the fetus in the womb of the concubine, and the concubine can't bear it, Fang Caitong is right, after all, he is the prince. ”

As soon as the queen's words landed, An Jingliang immediately asked: "If you continue to make decisions, you will suffer from it, but the queen is kind-hearted, but where is the Jiangshan Sheji and the people of Limin?" ”

The words caused the Empress Dowager Xiaoren to nod her head, and the rest of the people were used to seeing the wind and the rudder, and they echoed it, Xia Ruotong sweated in a hurry, it seems that the child in Dou Lianyi's womb is more auspicious and less auspicious, and she only hopes that the emperor can hold up a protective umbrella for her.

It's just that it's about the people of the country, I'm afraid that he will also be in a dilemma.

"Queen Mother, Dou Lianyi asks to see."

Hearing the announcement, the people who were discussing the left and right sentences suddenly stopped, looked at the upper seats together, and the hall was suddenly so quiet that they could hear a pin drop.

"Well, let her in." Under the eager gaze of everyone, the Queen Mother groaned for a while and finally agreed.

Immediately, Dou Lianyi was brought in, and with her appearance, everyone in the seat held their breath, looking at her like a flood beast, and the more timid ones didn't dare to look at her, for fear of being contaminated with demonic energy, or accidentally being harmed by her or the demon in her belly.

"The concubines knocked on the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, Emperor An, and Concubine Xiao Shu." She asked the upper authorities one by one, and bowed to the rest of the women, and then came straight to her meaning: "Shocked by the celestial phenomenon, the concubines were shocked, and they disturbed the queen mother and the mothers, and the concubines were terrified, sorry." ”

The sincerity of the attitude and the sadness of the face are enough to move the hearer.

"You are also a victim, why blame yourself, for the sake of the future, you want to think about it." Empress Yueshi looked at her sympathetically and spoke comfortingly.

Seeing the truth in adversity, Dou Lianyi looked at her gratefully: "Queen Xie is compassionate, but this matter is very important, the concubines dare not take it lightly, and they can solve the danger as long as they move elsewhere, and the concubines specially ask to move out of the Guansui Palace, and also ask the Queen Mother, the Queen and the ladies of the palace to agree." ”

This celestial phenomenon, no one dares to be sloppy, even if the emperor has the heart to protect her, he may not dare to bet on the country, and now that the earthquake has occurred, it is even more evident that she has thought about it carefully, although the whole thing is strange, it may be a game, but now the time is in a hurry, only to save the child first, and then it is not too late to think in the long run.

"Then how can it be done, Lord Qintian Supervisor Zhengwang can say, this method is just an expedient measure, this time it is an earthquake, I can't keep it next time, this demon must not be left." Du Wanying was the first to object.

The rest of the people nodded yes, and the Queen Mother seemed to have made up her mind, "That's ......."

"No, you can't."

Dou Lianyi and Xia Ruotong spoke at the same time, and the former even bent his knees, regardless of the fact that he was pregnant with Liujia, his body was clumsy and heavy, and he bowed down for a long time: "Queen Mother, the concubine is pregnant with your own grandson, and the concubine is willing to live for ten years in exchange for his life, and I implore the Queen Mother to open up." ”

"This ......"

finally got a grandson, and the queen mother was reluctant.

"Queen Mother, Hugh wants to listen to her quibbles, this matter is related to the livelihood of the society, is it possible to become a demon, will put so many people in danger, now the earthquake is still far away from the capital, if it endangers the capital in the future, and even harms the imperial city, it will be regretted." In view of the lessons learned from the past several times, Xiao Shufei, who had not spoken, finally couldn't help but jump out.
