Regarding Empress Xiao's sudden diagnosis of joy, Empress Dowager Chen's heart was more uneasy than joyful.
Although she has passed Emperor Yongding to her name, although she is now the queen mother, she knows in her heart that there is still a layer between her and Emperor Yongding. She was not born and raised, but in the end she was separated from herself.
Besides, Concubine De's matter is also a thorn in her heart.
Now she only has a daughter like Huihe, and since Huihe has moved this mind, she has to fulfill it. Moreover, this proposal is also beneficial to herself and to the Chen Guogong Mansion.
If Emperor Yongding only has one son, Zheng He, or only Zheng He is from the Middle Palace, it would be even better.
But now that Queen Xiao is pregnant again, things have changed a little. No one can say for sure what will happen in the future, especially the royal succession.
Empress Dowager Chen was uneasy, and she didn't have much thought to comfort Gu Qingwan, so she only said: "The queen mother knows that you are just upright, and the queen is pregnant, which is something that no one expected." After speaking, his face turned pale, "It's just that no matter what the reason, you shouldn't talk to the queen like this." The queen is about to recuperate, and in these two months, you should not enter the palace again, and reflect on it. ”
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Gu Qingwan saluted, her face was bitter, but she had already snickered in her heart.
What she is most impatient on weekdays is that she is summoned into the palace by the Empress Dowager Chen and the eldest princess Huihe from time to time, either talking with them, or accompanying them to eat tea and watch plays, and she is annoyed to death.
Now that there is a fair and honest reason not to enter the palace to deal with the two of them, Gu Qingwan is very happy. And Empress Dowager Chen just said that she should not enter the palace. It's not like you're going to be grounded in King Rui's mansion.
Gu Qingwan pretended to be reluctant and worried, and only wept and said: "I don't know what happened to the imperial sister-in-law, she must also complain about me, and I hope that the queen mother and the imperial sister will explain more." In the past two months, Qingwan has not been able to accompany her mother. Forgive Qingwan for being unfilial, and when the imperial sister-in-law's anger subsided, Qingwan came to greet the queen mother again. ”
Empress Dowager Chen had no choice but to respond, and sent Yun Xin to prepare a soft sedan chair to send Gu Qingwan out of the palace.
"Anyway, you just sent the queen and Princess Rui out, what happened?" Wait to wave away the crowd. Empress Dowager Chen only left Liu Yi alone to question.
Liu Yi lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment. This is clear.
It turned out that just out of the inner hall, Queen Xiao couldn't bear this breath, so she said to Gu Qingwan: "I just heard about it before, but now I really see it." To change the Japanese Palace, I have to ask Old Madam Gu and Second Mrs. Gu. How did they raise their children and grandchildren so well? ”
Gu Qingwan, who was already a little wilted, was stimulated by this sentence. Without thinking about it, he stabbed back: "If it's about upbringing, how can Qingwan compare to the queen." After all, isn't the queen like this today just to prevent me from talking about it? Actually, I've never figured it out. Huer and Shuanghua are cousins and brothers, it would be great if they were close to each other, why wouldn't the queen mother. ”
Gu Qingwan smiled, as if she hadn't seen Empress Xiao's face, and continued: "The queen mother doesn't agree with this matter, just tell the queen mother and the imperial sister, why hide it and complain in your heart." The queen mother is a reasonable person, and she must not be strong. ”
"Shut up!" Empress Xiao glanced at Liu Yi with a shocked face, and she couldn't wait to seal Gu Qingwan's mouth.
However, Gu Qingwan's voice was not small, and Liu Yi was afraid that she would listen to it. Empress Xiao was ruthless, and only turned her head to Mama Yang and said, "Seal her mouth and take her out." ”
Gu Qingwan shook off Mama Yang, and at this time, there was a wave of anger in her heart, and she dared to say anything.
"However, Hull and Shuanghua have grown up together, and it is inevitable that they will have a friendship with each other in the future. The queen mother took precautions, and it was not a way to detain He'er in the Yongyan Palace all the time. After that, she "tsk" twice and continued, "Even if I don't have a tutor, I feel that Niangniang's work is biased. If the queen mother and the royal sister knew, they would definitely be sad. ”
The queen mother was so angry that she couldn't speak for a long time, and suddenly fainted. If it weren't for Mama Yang's quick hand to block the queen's mother, I'm afraid today's matter would not be so easy. Liu Yi sighed with palpitations.
Who would have thought that Queen Xiao is a double body now, if she fell to the ground today and bumped it, so that the child in her belly had a chance to happen, even everyone who was waiting in Ci'an Palace would not be able to escape.
After hearing this, Empress Dowager Chen and the eldest princess Huihe didn't speak for a long time, but the eldest princess Huihe couldn't hold her breath a little, and grinded her teeth and said: "Queen Mother, I said it before, don't look at Xiao Suyun's kind appearance on weekdays, in fact, the bones are very hard." She doesn't agree with Shuanghua, I still don't like Zheng He's stunned boy. If it weren't for the situation, I wouldn't be willing to hand over Shuanghua to Xiao Suyun for training. ”
Empress Dowager Chen frowned, but did not speak.
"I think Xiao Suyun is like this today, it's really retribution!" Megumi and the eldest princess clasped their hands together and laughed.
Seeing that the eldest princess Huihe was getting more and more outrageous, Empress Dowager Chen immediately shouted: "Huihe, how many times have I told you, you can't be so temperamental." ”
In the end, just like when she was young, she has not suffered setbacks, she doesn't know the hardships of the world, and she doesn't know that disasters come from her mouth.
Empress Dowager Chen sighed, and thought of today's "culprit" Gu Qingwan, and felt a headache. She rubbed her eyebrows with her hand, and said a little tiredly: "That girl of the Gu family is too, she is too bold, her temperament is too much, you will stay away from her in the future, so as not to burn yourself one day." ”
The eldest princess of Huihe felt that what Gu Qingwan had done today was very relieved, but she also knew that Gu Qingwan, who even Queen Xiao dared to contradict, would not make a mistake on her head in the future.
It was the time for Empress Dowager Chen to show grace to Gu Qingwan, but it was she who suffered at that time. Therefore, when he heard Empress Dowager Chen's admonition, he lowered his eyebrows and said: "Erchen knows the truth, but he is only kind on the surface, and he will not have a deep friendship with her." ”
"If only you knew." Empress Dowager Chen sighed, "Today's events, big and big, small and small, it depends on the queen's attitude." Besides, Ah Rui is still in the middle, and I am maneuvering in it, Qingwan's girl must not be able to suffer any losses. ”
"Of course." The eldest princess Hui and the eldest princess continued, "The third brother still has a compatriot friendship with the fifth brother, the fifth brother is stupid, and the third brother is also very pitiful." Now that the fifth brother is obedient to Gu Qingwan's words, Xiao Suyun is not easy to move her. Besides, Xiao Suyun probably didn't want too many people to know about this matter. ”
Thinking of Emperor Yongding and Zheng Rui, and thinking of Empress Xiao's attitude, Empress Dowager Chen's face became a little colder. She is afraid that Queen Xiao will not make trouble, if Queen Xiao makes this matter bigger, she can use Zheng Rui to separate the feelings between the emperor and the queen.
"What about Frost Bloom?" The eldest princess of Huihe suddenly remembered her original intention, "When I mentioned it last night, Xiao Suyun had a lot of excuses, and today it was even broken by Gu Qingwan, maybe she will openly oppose it." ”
Empress Dowager Chen frowned: "This matter will be discussed later." Anyway, Hull and Shuanghua are still young, so it's not too late to wait. ”
The eldest princess Huihe suddenly became anxious: "Queen Mother, now is the best time, it will be too late to miss it." ”
Emperor Yongding has not yet sat firmly in the position, the military power in the northwest is in the hands of the Chen Guogong Mansion, and the military power in the southwest is still in the hands of General Zhenwei, and several generals with heavy troops are not people of Emperor Yongding. There are still the remnants of King Ke and the Zhiguo Mansion that have not been eliminated, and Emperor Yongding is in a hurry, and now the only one who can rely on is the Chen Guogong Mansion.
When Emperor Yongding sits down in his seat, it will not be so easy to discuss this matter again.
Empress Dowager Chen also knew this truth, but when she saw her daughter's anxious appearance, she inevitably had to persuade her: "As long as your grandfather is here, this matter is not difficult, wait a while." ”
"Why do you have to wait, the queen mother just let the fifth brother make a direct order, why bother so much." The eldest princess Huihe was used to doing whatever she wanted, at least from beginning to end, she never took Queen Xiao in her eyes.
"Nonsense!" A trace of a smile on Empress Dowager Chen's face disappeared, "Why did Xiao Suyun faint today, you can't seal it." She is now a double body, and the doctor said that she can no longer be stimulated. If anything happens to the child in her womb, it's all our fault. ”
The eldest princess opened her mouth, but when it came to her mouth, "What is my business", she never said.
Empress Dowager Chen saw that she was still unwilling on her face, and her words were a little serious: "Anyone has a temper, you can't force it too much, the rabbit will bite when it's in a hurry, let alone the Son of Heaven." ”
Saying that, Empress Dowager Chen's face showed a trace of remorse, she shouldn't be used to Huihe everywhere, even if she has the same character as she is today. She hasn't learned a lesson, and her temper is even worse than the girl of the Gu family, at least the girl of the Gu family still has scruples, and Huihe has no scruples.
After a hundred years, no one will follow her to clean up the mess for her, but how can it be good.
And Gu Qingwan, who was worried about Queen Xiao, finally returned to King Rui's mansion at this time. Rao was in cahoots with Queen Xiao in advance, and she couldn't help but be shocked.
If Queen Xiao didn't know that she was pregnant, Gu Qingwan was the first one not to believe it.
At the beginning, she felt that if she only relied on the scene played by herself and Empress Xiao, it would be impossible for Empress Dowager Chen not to mention this matter for the time being.
After all, in the middle, there is also a hot and eager princess Huihe.
If you just delay time, you can only have a moment of respite. After ten days and half a month, Empress Dowager Chen brought up the matter again, could she still perform another scene.
Now Gu Qingwan understands that Queen Xiao is so confident because she already knows that she is pregnant.
The imperial physician has already stated today that Empress Xiao cannot be stimulated, and Empress Dowager Chen will not press forward step by step.
It's just that ten months is also very short, whether you can push off the marriage with the princess's mansion depends on how far Emperor Yongding can do in these ten months. (To be continued......)
