328 After the Seal (2)

Shen Wu'an has been on the throne for more than four years, and the ministers in the court are very clear about his temper, when he loses his temper and scolds, he is actually not the most terrifying, and every time he speaks lightly like this, it shows that he is really angry.

Although they have only seen this situation a limited number of times, it is enough to be impressive, so after hearing his question, the entire court is silent, and everyone lowers their heads and looks at the ground in front of them, believing that if there is a crack in the ground at this time, they will definitely get in!

And Lin Xu, who was kneeling in the center of the main hall, because he did not have the help of his colleagues, became an isolated boat in the sea, ready to meet the upcoming storm.

But to everyone's surprise, Shen Wu'an did not continue to make trouble, but rarely had the patience to explain to everyone: "In fact, the truth of this matter is not what you see on the surface. At the beginning, Qu Wuwu colluded with the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital to drug me, and afterwards put me under house arrest in the dormitory in the name of me having a head stroke and needing to recuperate. ”

As soon as he said this, he heard a sound of inhalation in the temple.

Neither Qu Wurong nor Qu Wurong had told the public about his true illness before, but at this moment, in order to restore Qu Wurong's innocence, he didn't mind letting these people understand.

Shen Wu'an didn't care about the reactions of the ministers, but continued to say to himself: "Later, it was the concubine who appeared in time, which saved my life, if it weren't for her, then I wouldn't be sitting here now!" ”

"I know that some of you have a lot of criticism about her, not only because she and Qu Wuwu are sisters from the same family, but I also know very well what these people have in their hearts, but I will clearly tell you today that the noble concubine is my wife and the biological mother of the crown prince, and her loyalty to me and Daliang is firmer than any of you, what qualifications do you have to doubt her?"

After hearing his words, the court fell silent again.

Everyone knows very well in their hearts that Shen Wu'an is not deliberately protecting Qu Wurong so much, what she has done over the years, everyone has seen it, whether it is to voluntarily go to the royal temple to pray for blessings in order to prevent Shen Wu'an from attracting criticism, or for the stability of Daliang and take the initiative to ask for peace in Bailiao Kingdom, her starting point has never been to seek anything for herself.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Shen Wu'an turned his gaze to Lin Xu, who was kneeling in the center of the hall, and asked, "Does Lin Aiqing have anything else to say?" ”

Lin Xu shook his head lightly and bowed down, "Weichen, as a doctor of imperial history, failed to find out the truth, and listened to and believed it, so that he abruptly surprised the concubine Niangniang, and asked the emperor to surrender!" ”

"That's it!" Shen Wu'an waved his hand generously, "It is also the benevolence and righteousness of the noble concubine, in order to protect my reputation, she is unwilling to announce this secret to the world, which makes you misunderstand her, now that the matter has been explained clearly, I believe that all Aiqing should no longer have any objections to my decision, right?" ”

The ministers shook their heads in unison.

"In that case," Shen Wu'an said, glancing at Xiao Shunzi next to him, "Then let's announce it!" ”

Xiao Shunzi cleared his throat, unfolded the holy decree in his hand and read it: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: Concubine Qu has no tolerance, gentle and virtuous, show off wisdom, solve the danger of the country, save me from fire and water, I miss its love as deep as the sea, and I am specially named Qu as the queen, and I am allowed to favor the harem alone, and I admire this!" ”

As soon as this holy decree came out, there was another gasping sound at the bottom, but the courtiers did not oppose Shen Wu'an's canonization of Qu Wurong this time, but were surprised by the contents of the holy decree.

Especially the last sentence "Allow the harem to be alone", which clearly shows his determination not to accept other concubines into the palace in the future, and only favors Qu without allowing one person, which has never had a precedent in this dynasty!

Some people felt that this move was inappropriate, and they wanted to say a few words of comfort, but as soon as they raised their heads, they saw the father and son sitting on the dragon chair, and they unanimously threw displeased glances at him, and the expressions of the two people were extremely similar, inexplicably giving people an invisible pressure of "If you dare to object, you will die", so that the courtiers who originally wanted to say something could only obediently close their mouths in the end.

In this way, no one in the Manchu Dynasty dared to raise objections, Shen Wu'an was quite satisfied with this result, he glanced around on everyone's faces, and finally fixed on Zhai Qinglian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, "From now on, the Ministry of Rites will begin to prepare for the post-sealing ceremony, Zhai Aiqing will come to the imperial study after the dispersal of the dynasty later, I have some things to explain to you." ”

Zhai Qinglian, who was nominated, walked out of the queue and said, "Weichen obeys the order!" ”

"Okay, it's not too early, let's disperse if everyone Aiqing is fine." Shen Wu'an said, put the son in his arms on the ground, and then took his hand and walked out of the court.

Shen Li listened to the court meeting for nearly half an hour, and he knew nothing about most of the things, only the last thing about the canonization of Qu Wurong, he understood it from beginning to end.

After leaving the court at this time, he didn't have any taboos, pulled the hem of Shen Wu'an's clothes and asked, "Father, don't those people like the queen mother?" ”

Seeing that he was a little reluctant to follow his footsteps, Shen Wu'an simply picked him up, and then had time to answer the question he just asked, "It doesn't matter if they like your queen mother or not, as long as the two of us like it!" ”

"Hmm!" Hearing him say this, Shen Li suddenly remembered something, and nodded his little head heavily, "In this case, no one will rob us of the queen mother, right?" ”

"yes, they won't rob us." Shen Wu'an said, gently pinching his little face, thinking that others are not worried about robbing me, as long as you kid don't rob me!

It's a pity that Shen Li can't read minds, and there is no way to perceive the thoughts in his heart, and in the days to come, he will change his tricks to compete with him for favor, regardless of this is a later story.

The canonized decree was not only announced to the public in the court, but also sent to Qu Wurong's hands.

Since Shen Wu'an's body recovered, Qu Wurong ignored his every means to keep him, and insisted on moving out of the Qinzheng Palace, after all, it was the place where the emperor worked and rested, and it was not suitable for her to live there as a concubine.

After thinking about it again, Qu Wurong still moved back to Xiangxue Palace, after all, she was used to living in this place, and there were still traces of her and Shen Wu'an's life here, these were all things she was unwilling to give up.

When Xiao Shunzi came to read the holy decree with someone, Qu Wurong was sitting in the courtyard with Huahua basking in the sun, although he hadn't seen her for three years, but Huahua didn't recognize her at all, and rushed up excitedly when he saw her, rubbing her calves affectionately, and the happy appearance was not much different from people.

Several girls moved back with her, even Yangchun and Bai Xue were no exception, in their own words, anyway, the emperor would definitely stay in the Xiangxue Palace every night in the future, and they could only better serve the two masters if they moved back.

Because there was no relationship between people for too long, a few girls decided to clean the entire Xiangxue Hall thoroughly after discussion, which is a time-consuming and laborious man, and it is impossible to complete it anyway with just a few girls, so all the palace maids and eunuchs in the Xiangxue Palace were called to work by them, and the only free Qu Wurong was "driven" out to tease the cat, and bask in the sun by the way.

Xiao Shunzi walked in with the holy decree, and at a glance he saw the person sitting next to the stone table in the courtyard, he stepped forward and saluted, and said softly: "Niangniang, the holy decree has arrived!" ”

Hearing his words, Qu Wurong put the flower that was napping in her arms on the ground, and then stopped all the work that was busy in the hands of all the people, and asked them to gather in the courtyard to prepare to receive the order.

The content of the holy decree is the same as what was announced earlier, Xiao Shunzi finished reading the holy decree familiarly, rolled up the bright yellow brocade silk and handed it to Qu Wurong and said: "Congratulations to Niangniang, congratulations to Niangniang!" ”

"What's there to congratulate you on this?" Qu Wurong said indifferently, she actually didn't care if she had the title of queen, it was Shen Wu'an who was obsessed with it, and she had to make such a big battle to tell the world, she really felt helpless in her heart.

"Of course it's worth congratulating!" Xiao Shunzi replied with a smile, "Isn't it a great joy that Niangniang and the emperor have gone through so many hardships, and now they are finally able to get together?" ”

Hearing him say this, Qu Wurong also felt a little emotional, but she didn't continue the topic, but asked, "Is the emperor still busy at this time?" ”

"Hmm." Xiao Shunzi nodded and replied truthfully, "After the emperor went down to the early court, he called Lord Zhai of the Ministry of Rites into the imperial study, and I am afraid that he is still discussing things at this time." ”

This answer was within Qu Wurong's expectations, so she didn't show a disappointed expression, "Okay, I know, you can go and get busy with yours too." ”

"Then the minion will retire first!" Xiao Shunzi said and saluted again, and then left the Xiangxue Hall with people.

Watching their figures gradually disappear from sight, several girls glanced at each other, and then led everyone to collectively bow to Qu Wurong, and said pleasing words in their mouths, "Slaves (slaves) congratulate Niangniang on her ascension to the queen's throne!" ”

Qu Wurong was startled by the sound of their mountain shouts, and after a while, he stroked his chest and said angrily: "You want to scare me to death, don't you?" ”

"Niangniang, we are all congratulating you, how can we be scaring you?" Yang Chun replied with a smile on his face, "From today onwards, we are going to change our words to call you the queen mother!" ”

Hearing her words, Qu Wurong glanced at her angrily, "You didn't know about this matter on the first day, what kind of mess are you adding to it?" Is the house all packed? ”

"It's almost over, but a few side halls in the east haven't been cleaned up." This time it was a good fate who answered her, "Miss, if you are tired, go into the dormitory and rest." ”

These days, in order to take care of Shen Wu'an, Qu Wurong has hardly rested properly, and several of them have persuaded them a few times, but unfortunately it is useless!

Now that Shen Wuan's body has completely recovered, and Qu Wurong has finally become idle, Liangyuan feels that the most important thing she should do now is to rest more.

"I'm not tired." Qu Wurong shook his head gently, "Li'er should be back soon, the rest of the place can be cleaned later, you guys go to the kitchen to prepare, when he left this morning, he said that he wanted to eat butterfly cake and water chestnut cake." ”

"Yes!" A few girls agreed, and they went to prepare.
