Chapter 342: The Emperor's Spectrum
Maybe I knew that they had a few days together, and the two were not tired of being together that night. It happens to be summer now, and it is the peak period of floods and droughts, and now eighty/ninety percent of the twists and turns that come up are about this, all of which are more urgent letters, and Yu Wencan must deal with them as soon as possible.
Therefore, when Rong Hua Zheng helped the two children take a bath, Yu Wencan went to the imperial dining room to review the folds.
On the way to it, he suddenly stopped.
"Your Majesty?" Xiahou, who was following him, said unknowingly.
"Let's get up early tomorrow morning and watch it, and now let's go to the cold palace first." Yu Wencan turned around as he spoke, and a cold light flashed in his dark eyes.
Go to the cold palace?
Xiahou lowered his eyes and thought about it, the current harem is the smallest in history, and now there are only two people - Yun Qingluan and the Empress Dowager.
According to the regulations of the royal family of Daying, after the death of the emperor, his concubines had three choices, one was to continue to stay in the palace, and the other was to live in the parent-child mansion, and thirty converted to Buddhism to pray for the blessings of their descendants. The emperor originally only had one queen, Yun Qingluan, and the other concubines of the first emperor either converted to Buddhism or lived in the mansion of their relatives after the death of the first emperor, except for the queen mother who was locked up in the cold palace, none of them chose to live in the palace.
Of course, it can't be Yun Qingluan who lives in the cold palace, it's not that she is naturally the queen mother who is in the limelight.
However, Xiahou couldn't understand why Yu Wencan didn't even approve the performance, but went to the cold palace to see the empress dowager who was sent to the cold palace immediately after she ascended the throne.
The cold palace is far away from Yu Wencan's bedroom, and Yu Wencan only took Xiahou to go alone, and walked extremely patiently for two quarters of an hour before arriving at the door of the cold palace.
Everything in the cold palace is cold, and there is not a single lantern hanging in the corridor, it is obviously a hot summer, but there is a cold feeling in such a night, as if there is no popularity.
Still, there was a little light inside, but the door wasn't open.
Because he didn't bring the eunuch with him, Xiahou Guo had no choice but to shout inside on his behalf: "The emperor has arrived!" ”
As soon as his scream fell, there was no reaction at all, Xiahou Guo didn't move, and quickly shouted loudly again.
After this sound, there was a voice inside. However, it was not the sound of people talking, but the second was the piercing 'crackling' sound of the vessel falling to the ground.
Xiahou narrowed his eyes, "The Empress Dowager, the emperor is here." ”
"Crackle! Crackling! A series of sounds came out of it, Xia Houguo had excellent hearing, and he could feel that the breathing of the people inside was rapid, and his emotions seemed to be extremely excited.
Yu Wencan's dark eyes were dark, and he pursed his lips and said, "Xiahou has passed, broken the door." ”
"Yes!" Xiahou passed the edict of the chief, but as soon as he stepped out, there was a shout from inside: "The mourning family wants to see who dares to break the door of the palace!" ”
Xiahou paused, "Your Majesty? ”
Yuwen Xuan's eyes glanced at him, and a cold light burst out.
Xiahou sighed secretly in his heart, took half a step forward, condensed his palm, and pushed his palm forward!
"Boom!" A loud bang sounded, and the door panel fell to the ground, and the empty hall lit with a half-short candlelight was immediately auspicious in front of the two of them.
"Yes, yes! Is this the way of the world, is this what the Emperor of Life should do, it's ridiculous! The sound from inside pierced their eardrums.
The person who spoke didn't know how long it had been since he spoke, the words he said were dull and harsh, and the tone of his words also carried a sarcasm that could not be ignored, and Xiahou Guo couldn't help frowning when he heard it. Yu Wencan turned a deaf ear, and walked in with a very faint gaze.
When the two of them entered, the master of the cold palace also happened to come out of the inner hall, compared with the noble and gorgeous clothes before, her current robe was plain, and her face, which was originally graceful, was now wrinkled, and the white hair on the black green silk was densely displayed. It's less than a year, but the Queen Mother has aged more than ten years during this period of time!
She used to love beauty the most, and there were countless precious anti-beauty drugs in the palace, but now that she has become like this, she doesn't even dare to look in the mirror. When she saw Yu Wencan, who was dressed in a bright dragon robe, her eyes widened, and she almost wanted to tear her eyes! She casually picked up a tea set that was placed on Zhuo Sticky and threw it on Yu Wencan's body: "Bastard!" Get out of the mourners! ”
Yu Wencan's face was expressionless, and Xiahou Guo reached out and quickly smashed the tea set!
"Bastard! Bastard! Get lost! Get out of the mourning house! The Empress Dowager looked very excited, her lips were white and purple, and she was very ugly.
Yu Wencan glanced at the Empress Dowager lightly, and looked away before her shadow could be reflected in her eyes, and said extremely indifferently: "The Empress Dowager's appearance now is much better than before. ”
"You!" The Empress Dowager was extremely angry, grabbed a plate beside her that was still sticking to some food crumbs and threw it at Yu Wencan's body, and sneered: "What an unworthy descendant!" I'm afraid there will never be a second person in this world who is as unscrupulous as you, and actually locked his grandmother in a cold palace! Haha, just wait to be scolded by someone! ”
"What is the Empress Dowager talking about, when did I lock you up in the cold palace? Who in this world doesn't know that the empress dowager was so grief-stricken because of the death of the first emperor that she left home to eat fasting and recite Buddha? Yu Wencan's black eyes were flat, and his tone was extremely natural.
"What? You actually ......" The Empress Dowager's eyes widened.
"How am I? Otherwise, does the Empress Dowager think everyone knows that you are actually in the palace now? ”
"You treat the mourners like this! Reverse grandson! "The Queen Mother is angry!
Yu Wencan looked at the Empress Dowager coldly, "I came to ask you for something back today." ”
"Asking for something from the mourners?" The Empress Dowager's cloudy eyes narrowed slightly, and her expression was suddenly full of vigilance, and after a while, she seemed to think of something, and her vigilance turned into a sneering smile, "The emperor is really good at laughing, is there anything here in the mourning family that you don't have?" I actually came to mourn and ask for something? ”
Yu Wencan pursed her lips and did not answer.
The Empress Dowager laughed, smiling unusually proudly. She stretched her limbs, slowly found a stool to sit down, lifted the old kettle to the cup of boiling water, and curled her lips and said: "Others don't know about the mourning family, the emperor is not just an emperor, you are still the richest man in the world, everything precious is there for you, I am afraid you are in the wrong place to come to the mourning family." ”
"I'm not in the wrong place, I know." Yu Wencan said lightly: "I only want to ask one thing now-did you take out the imperial spectrum now, or did I send someone to forcibly search it out?" ”
The imperial genealogy, as the name suggests, is a genealogy belonging to the royal family, which is not the same as the general genealogy, which can only record the descendants of the emperor, and among the descendants of the emperor, those who did not become emperors and became kings will be crossed out from the list on this imperial genealogy and recorded to the genealogy instead.
In addition to the descendants of later generations, the royal genealogy also records their spouses, and an heir has only one spouse, and the person recorded on it can only be the main room, and those below the side room and the side room will be recorded in the genealogy. And such a royal genealogy belonging to the royal family, the queen has been in charge of the past generations. Originally, this imperial pedigree should be in the hands of Yuwen Zhai's mother, Concubine Hua, but, because of the discord between Empress Xiaoyi and the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager secretly refused to hand over the imperial pedigree to Empress Xiaoyi no matter what, after Empress Xiaoyi died, Concubine Hua wanted to change the name on the emperor's spouse, and she always thought that the imperial pedigree was in the hands of Empress Xiaoyi, thinking that the imperial pedigree would fall into the hands of the emperor after Empress Xiaoyi's death, and she had asked the emperor several times.
Yu Wencan has always known that whether it is the phoenix seal or the imperial pedigree that Rong Hua Zheng inadvertently stole before, it has never reached the hands of his mother, and the imperial pedigree is still in the hands of the empress dowager until now.
"Haha! Really! The Empress Dowager raised her head and said rampantly, "The sons born by the people are different, now they are all emperors, but they want to ask for the imperial pedigree from people like me, ridiculous, really ridiculous!" ”
Yu Wencan's thin lips pursed, "Before I still have a little patience, I advise you to hand over the things." ”
"Haha, do you think the mourning family will be afraid of your coercion?" The Empress Dowager snorted sneeringly and looked at Yu Wencan, "Do you think that the mourning family doesn't know what you want this imperial pedigree to do, and you want to write the name of that cheap woman from a fourth-rank official into it, right?" But it's a pity that she's not dead, she can't even see you doing it now, why are you so thankless?"
"Xiahou, go out and call a few people over, search!" Yu Wencan was too lazy to talk nonsense with her, and ordered coldly.
"You dare!" The Empress Dowager's face changed, but she pretended to be calm and sneered: "It is worthy of being the son of the first emperor, if it is really the same as the first emperor, the first emperor also threatened the mourning family so much for a woman, and said that if the mourning family did not let him write the name of the cheap woman, he would never recognize the mourning family as the queen mother!" Scold! How ridiculous! ”
Yu Wencan's face was cold, and he didn't even look at the Empress Dowager.
Xiahou Guo went inside to find something according to his words, and the Empress Dowager wanted to stop her, but she was just a sixty-year-old man, how could I stop Xiahou Guo?
Xiahou Guo took a few people into the inner hall of the Empress Dowager, rummaged through the cabinets, and after a while, he found a book with the word "imperial spectrum" written on it.
When the Empress Dowager saw it, her eyes were almost dripping blood, and she hurriedly rushed up, "You dog slave, put down the imperial pedigree for the mourning family, can you touch these dog things!" ”
But as soon as her words fell, the imperial score had already reached Yu Wencan's hands.
Yu Wencan glanced down at it, and then turned away without mercy. When he walked out of the door, he paused, looked back at the old Empress Dowager and said, "It seems that you are really not suitable to live here at all, so Ming'er will go to a temple in Kyoto to pray for the blessings of future generations." With that, ignoring the shouts of the Empress Dowager behind him, he strode away.
