The emperor woke up, and the sky in the back court suddenly cleared. It's not just Xu Xun, the eunuchs and maids inside and outside the Qianqing Palace, and even the deep three cabinet ministers and three Shangshu in the city government, they can't help but be overjoyed on their faces.

Of course, it should be easy, for the important ministers, the alternation of imperial power is tantamount to a huge storm, in this storm, even a little thing may be magnified at will, and a little mistake can give an excuse for those who are interested to make trouble. This kind of hasty change of dynasty has always been the best time for the legendary story to happen, and as a few bigwigs at the apex of the court, there is little room for progress in the future, what they want is an orderly metabolism, not a big change like a son of heaven and a courtier. Besides, the prince is young and ignorant, and it is inevitable that the harem ladies will be in charge, and compared with the queen mother, who is as shrewd and rumored as a woman and is a woman, she can naturally be unreasonable, and the ministers certainly like the emperor who has undergone formal training.

As for the harem, not to mention, except for the concubines and others, no one may say it, and the rest of the people who have been in the palace for a long time, which one doesn't know about the funeral? The emperor counted the days, which was equivalent to the people of the palace accompanying the people, and the concubines were really uncomfortable, and almost everyone washed their faces with tears, which reduced a lot. is a kind of eunuch palace maid, most of them think about their own errands, which is another kind of worry. Now that the emperor wakes up, everyone is very happy, not to mention that the joy is like the New Year, anyway, everyone in and out of the Qianqing Palace is a lot brisker.

The emperor couldn't understand this change, and he didn't know how calm the atmosphere in the Qianqing Palace was when he was in a coma. Even now, he was still a little groggy and his thinking was relatively sluggish, so Imperial Doctor Liu helped his pulse, rolled his eyelids again, gently asked the emperor a few words, and then announced, "People are fine, but they have been in a coma for many days, and now they have to recuperate and rest." I'm afraid that it will still be bad for a few days. ”

The emperor was sick for about 20 days, but fortunately, there were no major military affairs in these 20 days, and the basic operation of the imperial court was not a problem. Of course, the news of his serious illness inevitably leaked out, and the reaction of all parties was another matter, Xu Xun didn't consider this aspect at all before, at this time the emperor woke up, she was relieved, and then she suddenly remembered, and asked the queen mother, "Old lady, I heard that someone in the capital took the initiative to pray for the eldest brother, and now that the eldest brother is safe, should he issue an edict or something, so that everyone can rest assured?" ”

"It doesn't have to be this way." The emperor woke up, the queen mother also relaxed, much calmer, this sudden change, also made the old man sweep away the decadence of the previous few years, look very energetic, sit upright on the first solemnity, everything seems to be confident. "After Da Lang is well, as long as he goes to the Chang Dynasty as usual, it will be regarded as a note. He fell ill suddenly this time, and he got better quickly, so he just handled it in a low-key manner, and he didn't have to take it too seriously. ”

As he spoke, he sent someone to the Wenhua Hall to deliver a message and tell the ministers of Imperial Physician Liu's diagnosis, "You can also work as usual, and you don't have to work so hard every day in the Qianqing Palace." ”

Although it is said that it is the old man of the three pavilions and the six scholars, but the three Yangs are also the six scholars, so in essence, it is these six important ministers who are on rotation, and the rest, such as the British public and other relatives, can only be rotated with them, but they cannot be alone. Needless to say, this is another civil and military dispute, or even a power struggle between the six cabinet ministries and other miscellaneous departments - Xu Xun only understands it slightly, in fact, her understanding of the official system of the country and the dynasty is no higher than that of a teacher. Now I know that I have indeed worked hard for six important ministers in the past few days, and there is the British Duke, who has been in the palace most of the time these days, and with his old age, he has supported these days, and he is indeed struggling.

In the end, the ministers still stayed for two days, confirming that the emperor's spirit was getting better day by day, and then the rotation system was ended. Wenchen's shelf is so big, don't look at the emperor when he is critically ill, they don't care about the appearance, they immediately come to squeeze the concubines, and insist on staying in the Qianqing Palace, also out of suspicion of the concubine's inner servants, but now that the matter has passed, the queen mother still wants to reward them for their merits.

As for the inner servants and concubines who really work hard to serve the sick, this is their duty, so why should they be paid? Of course, most of the concubines didn't expect this piece at all, and the emperor could get better, which was the most haode gift for them. These days, the concubines who have a share of serving in the inner palace are really more careful to the emperor than their own parents and parents, so they are afraid that they will be heavy and careless, and disturb the emperor's recuperation.

"It's not just me who has lost weight." Xu Xun lowered his head and sorted out the braids for the emperor - this is ridiculous, but because he is always lying down, it is uncomfortable to tie up, and it is easy to press it when it is scattered, so the emperor has two twisted braids these days, hanging on both shoulders, and it is comfortable to lie down, but the shape is inevitably a little funny. "It's all thin, Sister Sun has been raising it for a few years, and it's easy to get a little fat back, this time the thing was tossed, and it was beaten back to its original shape, so thin that the meat on her cheeks was dried up at all."

When he first woke up, he was still groggy and couldn't say anything, but in the end, he was in good health, and if he survived, he survived, and after a few days of recuperation, he was already able to walk around on the ground, but the imperial doctor was bold in his therapy this time, and even gave the emperor a few blood. When it was swollen, it couldn't be seen, and after the swelling was reduced, I felt pale, weak and weak, even if I woke up, I couldn't get out of bed in a hurry, so I had to summon the ministers in the Qianqing Palace to ask about politics, and I was free to be served by the concubines, and I was accompanied to talk and relieve my boredom.

Today, it was Concubine Yuan who accompanied Xu Xun with her, and after listening to Xu Xun's words, she saw the emperor's eyes looking at her, and she also smiled and said, "But in this way, there is no one in the palace who is not thin, and even the old lady has lost a lot." ”

The emperor let out a long sigh, "It's me who is too ridiculous, but it's hard work, and it's really unfilial." ”

Now most people, including the emperor and the imperial doctor, are convinced that the polo match the day before the onset of the disease is the culprit of malaria this time, the emperor has this is quite normal, Xu Xun hurriedly comforted a few words, Yuan Concubine also had countless good words to offer, seeing that the emperor was still cowardly, she took the initiative to propose, "Why don't I sing a song to relieve your boredom - depending on what you want to hear, just order." ”

The emperor has been lying down for almost a month, how can he not get bored? Seeing that Concubine Yuan was funny, there was a smile on her lips, "Then sing a flower tune, it's a little more lively and festive." ”

Concubine Yuan stood diligently on the ground, saluted the emperor and Xu Xun, cleared her throat, and sang crisply, "What a jasmine, what a jasmine, the flowers in the garden are not as good as him." I have the heart to pinch Duo'er to wear, scared, and I'm afraid of seeing the flowers' scolding-"

Xu Xun looked at her youthful face, which bloomed like a flower in the sun, and felt some emotion in his heart: It is estimated that there have never been heavyweights in the palace who were sick before, and I usually didn't think it, but now I know that serving the sick is also particular. This time, the schedule of the sick is a self-arrangement of six bureaus, which seems to be random, but in fact, it is strictly arranged according to the rank of favor and even seniority, for example, Yuan Concubine is more favored and has been good and decent several times, so it is ranked in the afternoon when the emperor is more energetic, as for the evening, late night and morning, the rotation is Qing'er, Zi'er is Zhao Zhaorong's first-class character. Although it is not said that it is practiced without favor, after all, in these small things, you can see the difference.

As for her and the queen, both of them had errands, so they had to come and visit them when they were free. But she stayed longer than everyone else, and so did the Empress—this time she was seriously ill, and it was obvious that she was different from the Emperor. Xu Xun thought that she would be happy and sad, and it would be okay to get by on her face, but more thoughts were spent on Zhu'er. The Empress Dowager Hengzhi and her heart knot is deep, and the emperor is in a coma all day long, and the day is precarious, at this time, no one will be useful if he does superficial work, or it is serious to take care of the bolt to prevent him from getting sick. Unexpectedly, the queen didn't seem to understand all this, but stayed by the emperor's side all day, and only went back at night to see the bolt. It's Xu Xun, who has to take care of the affairs of the palace, and he keeps some hours less than her during the day. However, she also has an advantage, Diandian and Zhuang'er have no henchmen around her, a Korean girl history, and a Qian Mama, who takes the child very closely. Xu Xun was afraid that she would have too many people to come into contact with and go in to see the children but get sick, so she decided to wait until the matter was over before going in to visit, because she didn't have to go back to the palace at night, and she could live in the Qianqing Palace to guard the emperor at close range. At that time, everyone was strictly working in shifts of twelve hours, in no particular order, but now that the emperor is a little better, the treatment is immediately different. I don't know if it was the instructions of the Queen Mother, or the internal work of the Sixth Bureau and the First Division, anyway, although she is in charge, she has never used her brains in this regard.

Concubine Yuan sang a few songs, and the emperor's spirit was better, he smiled and said, "It's hard for you, I will reward you with a bowl of good tea to eat, moisten your throat." ”

Immediately, someone went to make tea, Concubine Yuan knelt down and thanked her, and also withdrew to take the tea and change her clothes, and did not say much: she has had ups and downs in the past few years, but she has experienced it, at least she has eyes than the concubines, knowing that the emperor is not in good spirits, it is best not to talk much in front of him, those coquettish and crazy things, you can wait for him to recover in the future.

"Is there anyone else sick in the palace these days?" The emperor is a family member, and when he has a little spirit, he begins to pay attention to the situation. "What about in the city?"

"I don't know what's going on in the city." Xu Xun was a little embarrassed, "There have been no patients in the palace for a few days." It seems that I heard the old lady say that now the rain has gone to the south, and the disease has also gone to the south, but I don't know if I heard it wrong. ”

The emperor couldn't help but smile slightly, "Usually you are the most powerful and know everything, but now you don't know anything." ”

Although Xu Xun also has times when he drops the chain, it is mostly due to the lack of harmony in dealing with people, and there has never been such a mistake in serious business, she argued, "There have been too many things recently, and I don't have the heart to deal with the outside." ”

"I don't blame you." The emperor said, stretched out his hand to hold Xu Xun's hand and patted it, "These days, it's been too hard for you, have you ever slept well?" ”

"Sleeping." Xu Xun hurriedly said, "Later, I slept together, and I was too busy to take care of it before, and I couldn't sleep—"

She incoherently discerned a few words, and she didn't know what she was distinguishing, so she stopped talking after saying a few words, but the emperor didn't believe it, "I woke up in a daze several times and drank medicine, and I heard your voice, I feel that it is very late, and I must not have slept much at night, right?" ”

The perception of the outside world by the comatose patient may be strange, Xu Xun doesn't know what to say, and it seems hypocritical to defend it again, so he said, "Okay, don't talk about this, now that the person is better, don't mention what happened when he was sick." ”

Thinking of the panicked and dazed state at that time, she couldn't help but tremble slightly, and then continued, "Now let's talk about Concubine Luo?" Sister Sun didn't come over today because she was in the first seven. ”

Xu Xun also went over to pay tribute just now, and only came to the Qianqing Palace, she didn't stay for a long time, because on the surface she really had nothing to do with Concubine Luo, besides, before Zhu'er didn't hesitate to go on a hunger strike to see Concubine Luo, it is estimated that the queen can't be happy, and she doesn't want to go to her side.

This time the plague, dozens of people in the palace died, in addition to Luo Concubine, there was also a eunuch from a certain prison in the twenty-four yamen, which was also a leading figure. However, those who died of epidemic disease are particularly anxious to be buried, and they must be cremated and buried when necessary. The people in the palace are naturally even less particular, and the dozens of people in the palace this time, according to the queen mother, are all burned to ashes and poured into a dry well for sealing, and all the relics are burned. Luo Concubine is still good, when she died, it was the end of the epidemic, and the emperor also woke up, the queen mother was a little relaxed, of course, immediate cremation is inevitable, but after the cremation is over, the ashes are pulled back, and the ritual is done for seven days, and a little palace maid is also found to wear linen and filial piety, cry or something, but there are also palace rules in the palace, according to Luo Concubine's grade, there is no reason to do it for forty-nine days, and it is time to be buried after seven days, Xu Xun is now talking about Luo Concubine's funeral and treatment.

"The old lady means, you can give a concubine," Xu Xun said, "She came over in the morning, did you see it?" ”

The Queen Mother has stayed up for a month, and she is also very tired, and now that the extraordinary situation is over, she lives in the Qianqing Palace, so she goes back to live in the Qingning Palace, and now she will come over in person every three or five days, usually rest in the Qingning Palace, and send someone to Xu Xun or the queen if there is anything. It is much more confident than before the emperor got sick.

The Emperor shook his head, "I heard she was here, but she was asleep." What does it mean to be a mother? ”

The old lady thought that the funeral was in a hurry, and she had already wronged Concubine Luo. It's better to seal a concubine, and it can be regarded as compensation. Xu Xun told the truth. The queen seemed to know, but she didn't say anything. ”

People die to see the glory, such as Taizu Sun Guifei, Taizong Wang Guifei, all enjoy the treatment of 'all sons for the concubine' period, and the rest of the details including the emperor's resignation and the high standard of the funeral are also privileged, Luo Concubine is unlucky The emperor was sick when she went, and all the mourning was gone. The queen mother said that she was crowned a concubine, but she didn't say that she was crowned an imperial concubine, Xu Xun was a little surprised - the emperor's illness was so sick that everyone's style was different from before, if it was left in the past, the queen mother would definitely raise Luo Concubine and add blockage to the queen's heart.

However, the emperor is like this, in fact, he is very reasonable with the queen mother and the queen, not to mention Xu Xun, he is also tolerant everywhere. Xu Xunshi can't say that he is a mean and unkind person, but it is true, the emperor is really stingy and ruthless to people he doesn't like and don't care about. He frowned, "Why bother, are you still afraid that there won't be enough talk in the government and the opposition?" Anyway, if you die and upgrade to one level, you can just seal a concubine, and the scene is better. ”

"Then, Zhu'er ...... "If you Feng Shufei, Zhu'er can't even serve for a year, and this kind of thing can't be hidden, after all, after the epidemic passes, Zhu'er will come out to study and be enlightened, and he won't be dissatisfied outside, and he will come back and secretly serve a heavy filial piety."

"Reading is the grace of assisting and nurturing, and the service period is just a year." The emperor said, "You don't have to record it in the classics, keep a low profile, and some people dare to talk nonsense about what's not to do?" ”

Although the voice is still a little weak, but the tone is not domineering at all, Xu Xun does not plan to express any opinion on this matter, anyway, there is the queen mother on top, she silently responded, and when she saw that the sky was almost there, she comforted, "Sleep for a while?" I didn't rest all afternoon, closed my eyes for a while, and just got up to take medicine. ”

The emperor hummed, adjusted his posture, and leaned against the head of the bed and narrowed. Xu Xun was on the side, and when he saw that Concubine Yuan was about to enter the door, he waved his hand and ordered her to go out, and when the emperor's breathing was even, he slowly stood up, and when he wanted to tiptoe out, the emperor opened his eyes again and said, "Don't go." ”

Xu Xun has known him for all these years, and he has never seen the emperor in such a mood, he is sleepy, and he is weak, he really looks a little childish, which is very different from the usual generosity and grace. Her heart softened, so she sat down again, picked up a book to read, and accompanied the emperor by the bedside until it was getting late, and she couldn't read the book anymore, so she just sat there, quietly looking at his steady and undulating chest and abdomen, and counting the emperor's breathing.

#

"The imperial concubine is still inside?" The queen frowned slightly, and sighed half-jokingly, "She should also go back to Yong'an Palace to see the child." ”

Wang Jin lowered his eyebrows, and didn't mention what Xu Xun was going to leave at all, even though he was standing by the bed at the time. "The emperor got out of bed today, walked around the courtyard, and is now looking at the excerpts in the south."

As he spoke, he introduced it in front of him, introducing the queen to the south room, which was rarely used for a while. This is the emperor's study, all kinds of facilities, the emperor half closed his eyes leaning on the couch, the imperial concubine is sitting next to the emperor, holding a book in her hand, read out to the emperor, "Since last year, there has been no rain for a year, and the grass and trees are scorched." And now there is another flood......"

Seeing her enter the house, the imperial concubine stood up, and the emperor also nodded at her, the queen pressed a faint sour feeling in her heart, saluted the emperor, and said with concern, "Big brother, you are just right, don't bother again." If you have the cabinet and the celebrant of these things, it will not hurt you to take a break for two days. ”

The emperor nodded, "It's all an excerpt that has been approved, it's boring to sit idle, let Xiao Xunbai read it, and I'll listen to it in vain." ”

He asked someone to bring a round stool and asked the queen to sit down, "How is the bolt going these days?" ”

"It's okay, after this incident, he is a lot more sensible." The queen was also a little pleased, "I used to be noisy and felt stuffy in the house, but now I don't say anything, I just think about my eldest brother." ”

Although the emperor has recovered a little, for the sake of safety, he still hasn't seen his children. "Soon, when this wave passes, we will all be able to meet."

The queen saw that he was getting better day by day, and her heart was also stable, she smiled happily, "Isn't it? I saw my eldest brother today, and my spirit is a little better. ”

When she came to visit a few days ago, the emperor was sick, but now he was in good spirits, and the two husbands and wives sat opposite each other for a while, but they still had nothing to say. The emperor asked her, "Concubine Luo, have you cleaned it up?" ”

The reason why the queen came over was that she heard the message from the emperor just now, and she couldn't help but feel a little sweet in her heart, who knew that it was like this when she came, and she liked it a little bit, and when she heard the emperor mention it, she was a little happy, and nodded, "After doing the Fa, I will send it out." According to the eldest brother's orders, he was sent to the coal mountain for the time being. When the land is encircled, the tomb is repaired, and then it is relocated. ”

While speaking, the medicine was boiled and delivered, and the imperial concubine took the tray from the palace maid and sent it to the queen, and the queen picked it up and sat down next to the emperor, wanting to serve the emperor to take medicine, the emperor waved his hand, "How old is it, still feed?" ”

He took the medicine bowl and drank the medicinal juice in one gulp, and the imperial concubine hurriedly handed over a handkerchief to wipe her mouth, and took candied fruit to change the emperor's mouth. The queen saw that the imperial concubine's eyes were blue and black, so she said, "You should also go back and have a good rest, not to mention the two children, just say that you yourself are also tired and out of shape." ”

The imperial concubine wanted to speak and stopped, the queen saw it, she was puzzled at first, and when the imperial doctor went, the two sat down for a while, and the queen got up to say goodbye. The emperor didn't keep her, but said, "You are also good at giving birth, and this month, you have lost a lot of weight." ”

The queen glanced at the imperial concubine a few times, and saw that she did not say anything, and the emperor was also very natural, and suddenly understood in her heart, but smiled self-deprecatingly: The ups and downs of emotions these days have made her a little abnormal and a little slow to react.

Walking to the door, she glanced back again, and saw the imperial concubine standing under the lamp, holding a Lin Kuo fruit in her hand, talking to the emperor, with a slight smile on her face - not a sweet abnormality, a smile of you and me, this smile, the smile is very normal, very homely, without the slightest flattery, panic...... It's like a couple gossiping.

On the emperor's face, there are still two funny pigtails, and he usually replies to the words of the imperial concubine, this picture is simply too simple and simple, so simple that it is incompatible with the palace.

But this is such a scene that washes away the lead, but the queen doesn't want to see more, she suddenly turned around, almost a little sadly quickened her pace, and stepped out of the southern threshold.

The fluctuating and panicked mood due to this sudden crisis slowly returned to the right track, and with the emperor's recovery, real life slowly settled into the queen's heart. Back in Kunning Palace, facing this crazy quiet palace, the queen muttered for a long time, weighing the gains and losses in the past month.

A bitter smile slowly appeared on the corner of her lips, but she quickly armed herself, clapped her hands, and summoned the maid on duty.

"Where's Mama Zhou?" She said, "Let her come, I have something to command." ”

The author has something to say: today is an early update.

Yes! It's getting hot, I really want to finish more than 10,000 words a day.
