Whether it is the Queen Mother moving to the Qianqing Palace or moving the emperor to the Qingning Palace, it is not too small a change. ωωω.? ωχ?. σяg Are you still watching today? (Pro, ()) The Queen Mother also has to consult the old man's opinion, after all, the easing of the relationship between the two palaces, that is, the matter of the past two years, if it is for this matter, what kind of waves and knots will be self-defeating.
Now she often goes to Renshou Palace to say hello, and it is not a big deal, after thinking about it for two or three nights, the Queen Mother did not invite Xu Xun and went to Renshou Palace alone. - I ran into the sedan chair of the Jingci Immortal Master halfway down, and the two of them happened to go all the way to Renshou Palace.
Although Ah Huang's marriage is going on recently, it is inconvenient for Jingci Immortal Master to come forward, and most of them are handed over to the noble concubine to do the work, she still concentrates on taking care of the empress dowager, which can be regarded as exempting the two career-oriented women from worries. After all, she has been doing this job for more than ten years, so she is naturally the most proficient. For most of the past six months, the immortal master has gone to Renshou Palace almost every day to accompany the old man, often after breakfast, and only returned to Chang'an Palace in the afternoon when the sun was about to set.
"Old lady." The Queen Mother saluted the Queen Mother, and she was also a little concerned. "How are you doing these days?"
"It's fine." The Empress Dowager nodded, her speed of speech was getting slower and slower now. "Are you all okay? Is the plug good? ”
This man grows old very quickly. The Empress Dowager didn't feel anything when she handed over power the year before last, although she was sick a few times in a row, her vitality was lost, and she was relatively thin and weak, but her spirit was good. At that time, he handed over the emperor's treasure seal to the queen mother through illness, maybe he still had the idea of taking power naturally after he got well, but who would have thought that he had not taken care of things this year, and the queen mother was really aging rapidly. Now she has gray sideburns, cloudy eyes, deep wrinkles, obviously her thinking is not as agile as before, and her ears are a little back, and now when I talk to her, I have to amplify my voice, and then wait for her to reply slowly. Often after saying a word, the other side has to drink several bowls of tea to make up for the energy consumed.
When people get old, their mentality will change, otherwise, the noble concubine would not propose to let the queen mother and the emperor live together again. It is because the Empress Dowager's anger has almost completely disappeared, and almost all of the scheming methods of the past have been eaten up by the word 'old', that she has such thoughts. If not, the biggest possibility of raising the issue of the education of the Empress Dowager is to let her old man move her old man to move the child to live in Renshou Palace.
Thinking of this possibility, the Queen Mother also passed the gloom in her heart: after all, she was not her own child, and she always felt that she had been unfamiliar with her in the past two years. The child is older and has something on his mind, and in front of her, there are also a lot of reservations. If you live in Renju Palace......
She let out a soft sigh and put the nonsensical worry aside, "It's all right, you don't have to worry about it. ”
Patiently talked with the old man, and saw that the immortal master came over with the medicinal food to replenish the body, the queen mother got up and took the porcelain bowl, wanting to feed the old man herself, but the queen mother stopped. "Let's let Hu come, she is used to serving, and she is more comfortable."
After all, she is old, if it is usual, it is just for the Hu family to live opposite her, everything is not to look at her face, and the empress dowager will not say such a thing. Even if they don't want to cooperate, most of them will let the palace maids come forward to serve, the queen mother glanced at the fairy master, and when she saw her expression, she couldn't help but smile slightly, and didn't care.
When the old man had used medicinal food, his spirit had recovered slightly, so he took the Queen Mother and the fairy master out of the garden for a leisurely walk, and the three of them walked a few steps in the back garden of Renshou Palace, the Queen Mother sighed, and her voice was clearer, "People are old, they have a special feeling for the times, you are still young, you don't understand the smell of spring, but I think that the heating of this spring, with bones, is more comfortable than any wall of fire, these months, it seems that people are a little younger." ”
The Queen Mother hurriedly flattered and said a few words, but the Queen Mother didn't want to listen to this, and after recovering a little energy, she became sharp and pierced, "It's rare to see you stay so long on weekdays, but you have something to say today?" ”
She saw through it, and the Queen Mother had nothing to hide, so she told the Queen Mother about the conflict between Zhu'er and Liu Hanlin. "All along, Liu Hanlin has indeed been a little too strict with the emperor, and he scolds him at every turn, and once he does not do his homework well, he will be punished for copying books. Although Xuan'er endured it on his face and didn't do anything disrespectful, he really wanted to change him and come back to my palace......"
The Empress Dowager heard a few words from Zhu'er, and her eyebrows couldn't help but raise, she didn't speak, and listened to the Empress Dowager before asking, "Then what do you mean?" ”
The Queen Mother pulled the noble concubine out, "The Xu family also told me that it is not a matter for this child to live alone in the Qianqing Palace......"
The Empress Dowager listened to the Queen Mother's relay, and nodded while listening, "It also makes sense, one person counts the short, two people count the long, let her help you that day, this move is good." ”
Listening to her tone, this matter should be able to be done, the queen mother's heart was relieved, and there was a faint sourness: If the queen mother had this temper a long time ago, she would be so old. Why did it have to be like that three years ago? She can naturally weigh the system in the court, and as the queen mother, she can justifiably intervene in the government and politics, where should she be angry with the courtiers? You don't have to share this power with anyone, let alone promote your concubine. In the past year, she has been silent, in fact, she is just a name, and she has not helped herself at all.
However, the sour smell reverberated for a while, and then gradually dissipated again. If you really want to ask about politics and participate in politics, I'm afraid that she won't be able to cope with it at all, and the empress dowager arranges an assistant, which is also an old move, and if it is her, I am afraid that it will be arranged like this - just add an extra layer of insurance. Xu Xun can be content with the position of 'insurance', does not talk nonsense, and meddles everywhere, which is also what she is cautious about, and she has nothing to complain about......
"Still." When she was thinking about it, the Empress Dowager changed her words again, "She is not the main palace after all, she doesn't have that confidence, and she is inevitably timid when she speaks, so she will transfer Liu Hanlin away?" If the emperor didn't say it, he could be transferred, but now that he has said it, then not only can he not be transferred, but he must also be promoted. ”
The Queen Mother couldn't help but be stunned, "-But, will this be a little ......?"
"What?" The Empress Dowager had her ears behind her ears and didn't hear clearly.
"Would it be a little too harsh on the bolt?" The Queen Mother had no choice but to say her thoughts out loud. "Liu Hanlin is indeed a little stricter—"
"I can't stand this setback, how will I face the world in the future?" The Empress Dowager's speech was very slow, but the authority that had been in charge for many years still permeated from her old words, revealing unquestionable affirmation. "Since ancient times, only the teacher blames the apprentice, how can there ever be an apprentice who punishes the teacher? To put it mildly, that is to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors...... Even if you want to transfer him, the cabinet has passed, and the six departments will also call back in the matter. There is no major event, the emperor has always only been promoted to make a fortune, how can he be sent out of Beijing for no reason? ”
The Queen Mother didn't want to demote Liu Hanlin out of Beijing to do things, she wanted to send him to the Ministry of Rites, but the Queen Mother spoke, and it was inconvenient for her to defend herself, so she had to listen to the old tigress with a drooping head.
"If you think about it, you can see that you don't study well at ordinary times, which is a mistake," the Empress Dowager pondered and said, "and provoked the relationship between the inner court and the outer court. When the emperor can't trust his courtiers, how can the courtiers rest assured that they will work for the heavenly family? The three ministers of the cabinet have worked hard for the country, and they have worked hard for many years, and they are worthy of his heart-wrenching questions? ”
was told by the empress dowager, and the empress dowager had quietly broken out in a cold sweat on her forehead: although she felt that this matter was not good, if it wasn't for the noble concubine's suggestion, she wouldn't want to move the emperor to live with her. - I thought that this was enough to make a fuss, and I didn't think about the Queen Mother, what she just did was still too understated! Although it is only a few words, the problems exposed are already shocking, I and the concubine are very shallow, or the old man sees it deeply, the three adults of the cabinet, although the authority is not small, but they have always respected the inner court, and they also abide by the duty of being a minister. Even the Queen Mother has times when she is uncomfortable with them, but she also knows very well in her heart that the Lord Shaoguo is suspicious, in the previous dynasties, at such a time, there have been many very sinister things, and compared with the predecessors, the situation of the inner court is now relatively relaxed.
As the lord of the people, he didn't know how to reward and thank the courtiers for their dedication, but he became suspicious and punished. The child is still young, he is not sensible, and he can still teach, but if he can't prevent it from getting worse and let such thoughts ferment, how will he treat the three ministers in the future? Isn't it to chill the hearts of the world's corporals?
"It's the daughter-in-law who is not good." She couldn't help but apologize for pleading, "You left three instructions for your daughter-in-law, and the first one taught the emperor's duties, and the daughter-in-law did not do a good job." ”
She took the initiative to admit her mistake, and the Empress Dowager didn't care about herself, she shook her head, "That's it, you are too inexperienced after all, otherwise, I won't let the Xu family assist you...... You are alone, you are busy on weekdays, and when there are many omissions, you should have a person as careful and outspoken as Xu's to carry it on the side. ”
This time, the Queen Mother nodded convincingly, "According to the old lady's opinion, what should be done about this matter?" ”
The Empress Dowager closed her eyes and muttered for a while, "Who is the closest person to the emperor in the palace on weekdays?" ”
The Queen Mother is still very clear about this, although she is busy on weekdays, she always has one eye on the Qianqing Palace, she said quickly, "After Concubine Luo goes, it will be Wang Zhen." He is the old man in the hands of Emperor Zhang, and after he arrived at Da Lang's side, he has always been very close to him. I'm also diligent and careful on weekdays—"
"Kill him." The Empress Dowager coughed a few times, and then said lightly, her voice also had the unique ambiguity of the old man - her speech today was slurred, mainly because she had just lost a front tooth and had not yet inserted a new denture.
In the years since the Queen Mother entered the palace, except for the punishment of some low-level palace maids and eunuchs who made big mistakes, she was punished more severely and died accidentally, and she really didn't give orders and took anyone's life. Hearing that the Empress Dowager was like slaughtering a cat and killing a dog, she casually wanted to kill a Quan Jue who had no obvious bad deeds, which was difficult to accept for a while. "But—he's the Bolt's Companion—"
"It's not a big companion, so don't you kill it." The Empress Dowager was a little dissatisfied with the Empress Dowager, "Bolt would say such a thing, isn't it because his companion can't be good at teaching and admonishing?" Just looking at this point, killing him is not wronged. Besides, if you don't deal with it a little more heavily, the child won't be able to learn that lesson. ”
"W-Which class?" The Queen Mother was already suppressed, and her behavior was somewhat unprepared.
The Empress Dowager glanced at her, exhaled tiredly, she slowly sat down on the stone bench, closed her eyes to recuperate, and comforted herself in her heart: I finally found a helper for her, and I could help her somewhat......
"Of course, I can't listen to the words of the palace people and eunuchs." Although her words were vague and her eyes were cloudy, the cold and cold momentum around her body was still impressive, "In this case, could it be that the Hanlin people said it to him?" He believes what the people around him say, how should he be the emperor in the future? ”
The Queen Mother finally understood: this time, the Queen Mother wants to punish small punishments and commandments, and use the lives of those closest to people to teach the truth of bolts.
Family members such as concubines, mothers and sons, and subordinates such as adoptive mothers and companions, all belong to the generation of insiders who cannot participate in politics. In the affairs of the imperial court, they can't even listen to a word of what they say, let alone swallow it in their stomachs, and then say it as their own words - those who want to be emperors would rather be suspicious than gullible. Just as the more beautiful a woman is, the more she can deceive people, and the closer she is to people, the more she can't trust them.
As for whether Wang Zhen should be responsible for the words said by the emperor, it doesn't matter at all, even if he is wronged, he can't care about it. Who let him catch up? The eunuch is a dog in the inner court, the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die, let alone a dog? His death, if the emperor can understand this truth, then it is not a wrongful death!
This line of thinking is the usual style of the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager has served her for many years, once she turns the corner, she immediately understands her intentions, she takes a deep breath, slightly contempts for a moment, and then opens her mouth to say.
"The old lady is right...... The daughter-in-law knows what to do—in this case, after killing Wang Zhen, it is better to replace all the palace maids and eunuchs in the Qianqing Palace, and transfer some honest palace people from the two palaces to serve Dalang in the past......"
Even if Wang Zhen is innocent, the person who really instigated the bolt is still hiding in the shadows, can't the Queen Mother have no way to deal with him/her? And why bother trying to find him/her out? It's just changed in one go, but it saves trouble! Anyway, the new ones must be much more honest than the old ones.
The Empress Dowager's eyebrows finally showed a look of relief, once she relaxed the string in her heart, her tiredness also came up, and her originally clear thoughts were also washed away and gradually lazy. "Yes, yes, you are a haode after all, in the future, you will only work with the Xu family, and in addition to political affairs, you must also take care of the emperor......"
The author has something to say: the style of the Empress Dowager has always been obvious......
