Chapter 1602: The Imperial Meeting
Ling Ruo hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's not too late, it's not too late at all." , but it's a concubine, the emperor treats the concubine so well, the concubine really doesn't know how to thank ......"
"Shh Yin Zhen pressed Ling Ruo's lips and said, "I don't want to hear you say thank you, because that will make me feel that you are still blaming me." ”
Ling Ruo smiled and pulled down Yinzhen's hand and said, "Since the emperor doesn't want to listen, the concubine just doesn't say it." After tossing like this all night, the emperor must be tired, so it is better to rest here with the concubines. ”
After getting Yinzhen's consent, Ling Ruo called Shui Xiu to come in, fetched water to clean Yinzhen's face, and then changed into a thin bedclothes.
After Yinzhen lay down, Ling Ruo pillowed his arm and whispered, "Has the emperor really made up his mind to abolish the queen?" The concubine was worried that Ping'er's words alone might not be able to convince the officials. ”
"I know that the queen has made the most undeserved mistake this time, so that I can't find a reason to forgive her, and after tomorrow, she will not be my queen again!" Yin Zhen's eyes flashed with a cold light, but when he looked at Ling Ruo, he had already turned into a rare tenderness, "When the time comes, I will make you the queen and be by my side forever." ”
"Even if she is not the queen, the concubine has never had the idea of leaving the emperor." There was a subtle trace of guilt in Ling Ruo's words, Yin Zhen treated her so trustingly, but she was hiding many things, including plotting Ping'er's defection to deal with the Nala clan.
She was afraid that after saying it, she would make Yinzhen think that she was a person who was good at using means, but if she didn't say it, she felt ashamed of Yinzhen, and she was very entangled for a while.
After thinking about it for a long time, he finally decided to tell the truth, gritted his silver teeth slightly, and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine has something to tell the emperor." ”
After waiting for a long time, there was no sound of speech above her head, only a long breath, and she raised her head a little strangely, only to see that Yinzhen had closed her eyes and fell asleep, this accident made Ling Ruo laugh dumbly, she finally mustered up the courage to say, Yinzhen just fell asleep, it seems that now is not the time to say this, it's just, let's wait for a while.
Many people couldn't sleep at night this night, and when the sky was just dawning, the news of Nala's grounding spread like wings to every corner, but after all, there were not many people who knew what happened last night, and only some news that seemed to be true and false reached everyone's ears, including after Yinzhen was preparing to abolish the queen.
However, everyone is skeptical, after all, the Nala clan is the mother of a country, and after suddenly saying that it is abolished, it would be good if the reason is sufficient, otherwise those old antiques in the DPRK and China would never agree.
Liu Shi asked Jin Gu while comparing Zhu Hai to the mirror, "I really can't find out what happened in Kunning Palace last night?" ”
"The slave maid has tried her best to inquire, but the emperor ordered the queen and the people around her to be grounded, and they were not allowed to step out of Kunning Palace for half a step, and no one could be asked at all, but last night the emperor uploaded that Concubine Qin and Prince Guo entered the palace overnight, and there seemed to be a maid who entered the palace together."
"Handmaiden?" Liu's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and said softly: "It's strange, what does the emperor do with a little maidservant, and how eager he is, he refuses to delay even one night." ”
"According to the slave maid, I am afraid that this matter will involve Prince Guo, I heard that after Concubine Qin went back last night, Prince Guo was still left in the palace, and he went directly to the morning court with the emperor early this morning!"
"Prince Guo is now very favored by the emperor, and he is about to catch up with Prince Yi, what can he do?" Saying this, Liu suddenly remembered something, and said hesitantly: "Could it be related to the previous incident of escorting Concubine Xi back to Beijing?" ”
"The slave thinks the same way." As soon as Aunt Jin's voice fell, she heard Liu ask again: "How is that maidservant, did you return to the palace with the concubine last night?" ”
"This slave doesn't know, she must have gone back together." Jin Gu replied uncertainly, and then said tentatively: "Master, do you say that the emperor will really abolish the queen's throne?" When the first emperor was alive, he set up many queens, but never abolished one, does the emperor really want to risk this? ”
"The first emperor is the first emperor, the emperor is the emperor, although the two are father and son, the love is far apart, and the emperor cannot be measured by the first emperor's son." After frowning and thinking for a long time, Liu shook his head and said: "This time, this palace really can't guess, but if it is from this palace, it is better not to waste it." Because the queen position can't be hung for too long, and soon a new queen will have to be established, who do you say will be more suitable than Concubine Xi in this harem. ”
"This is also true, as soon as the queen falls, Concubine Xi will be dominant in the harem, maybe she will take this opportunity to let the emperor make Hongshi the crown prince, so as to prevent future troubles."
"So, for this palace, it's better for the queen not to fall than to fall." She put a beaded flower on her sideburns, glanced at Gu and said, "But we can't talk about this kind of thing, let's wait for the news after the early dynasty." "Both the Liu family and Jin Gu know very well that for such a big matter after the abolition, Yinzhen must discuss with the hundred officials.
They didn't know that the maid in their mouth had just left the Forbidden City at the moment, looking at the bright light in the sky, she touched the letter hidden inside through her clothes, and walked in the opposite direction to the Guojun Palace, but when she came to the door of the Guogong Mansion, she had a closed door, no thorn sticker, no identity, the guards did not let her in at all, Ping'er was so anxious that she wanted to hesitate to say that she was a person sent by the queen, and suddenly remembered that at this time Yingge should have gone to the morning court, if she waited at the door, When he goes down, he will be able to touch it.
Thinking like this, Ping'er suppressed the eagerness in her heart, found a hidden place that was not easy to be seen, and squatted in the corner with her knees crossed.
In the palace of nourishing the heart, with the sound of three whips, the hundred officials went to the court in order, silently waiting in the hall for the arrival of Yinzhen, although there were many people, but there was no sound, and no sound came out.
"The emperor has arrived!" With the eunuch's shrill voice, Yin Zhen, who was dressed in a dragon robe, walked from behind, and after he sat down on the throne, all the officials knelt down with their sleeves and said respectfully: "The ministers knock on the emperor, long live the emperor, long live long live!" ”
"Flat!" Yinzhen raised his hand, and after the hundred officials got up, Sixi stepped forward, shook off the dust and said according to the usual practice: "If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat!" ”
After Sixi's slightly sharp voice fell, the officials who were originally standing on the side of the hair played and handed over the folds, discussing what had happened in the court in the past few days, and after the hundred officials had almost narrated, Yinzhen handed Sixi a fold that he was looking at in his hand, but he was not in a hurry to retreat from the court, but said: "Today, I also have something I want to hear your opinions on Aiqing." ”
Among the hundred officials, only Yunli knew what Yinzhen was going to say next, and sure enough, after a moment of silence, Yinzhen said: "I was shocked to hear about it last night, and now I still feel surprised when I think about it, and I don't want to believe it, but the facts are the facts after all, so I can't believe it." ”
