Chapter 194: The Queen Mother's Crisis
When Yun Fenghuang smiled slightly, Dipping Liu was hurriedly shaking up Empress Dowager Yuan: "Niangniang, it's not good!" Someone from Wannian County came to sue the royal complaint, and the road was...... The Eighth Prince of Dao is not His Majesty's blood, but the Yuan family's confusing bloodline!! ”
"......" Empress Dowager Yuan, who was awakened, sat up in horror, and asked what had happened in a few words, her face was instantly gloomy, "Who did it?!" ”
Dipping willow said in a panic: "It seems that it has nothing to do with the queen's mother......
"Impossible!" Empress Dowager Yuan vetoed it without thinking about it, "Gu Zhen doesn't have this ability!" When Gardenia Niang settled in Wannian County, she sent someone to keep an eye on her. But that's just stalking! I'm afraid she doesn't have the brains to think of stealing dragons and turning phoenixes! ”
"Niangniang, if it's not the queen, it's probably a concubine." Dipping Willow smiled bitterly, "If that's the case, I'm afraid things will be even trickier." ”
That's right, just like Yun Fenghuan didn't treat the queen as an opponent and thought that if it wasn't for Chunjia to stop her, the queen and the Gu family would be vulnerable, and the Empress Dowager Yuan's master and servant also thought so.
So now the dipping willow is very anxious, if the eighth prince is made by the queen, she will not even wake up the queen mother.
But if the mastermind is the concubine......
Then, it's not simple.
Although both Empress Dowager Yuan and Dip Willow are very disgusted with Yun Fenglian, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they want to get rid of it quickly, but they also have to admit that in terms of wrist, Queen Gu Zhen is not the opponent of the concubine at all.
At this moment, Empress Dowager Yuan pondered for a moment and said: "The concubine is the most suspicious, but there is still a person, and it can't be missed!" ”
Dipping Liu was stunned, then reacted, glanced at the Empress Dowager Qu, and whispered: "That, we have been staring at ......"
"If you really want to keep an eye on it, how does the emperor pity her?" Empress Dowager Yuan sighed and said, "People's hearts are fickle...... Before, the Ji family pressed it, and the people below didn't dare to make a time, and they didn't have a chance to make a time. After all, the three generations of the Ji family's phoenix masters, who do they want, our people, even if they want to take the initiative to lean up, they have to look at it. But the Ji family is gone, although the mourning family is the queen mother, that is also the queen mother, and the biological mother of the emperor, and the blood is related...... There are always some people who will think about it. ”
Since the fall of the Ji family, although the identity of the Empress Dowager Yuan is not what it used to be, there are also some people who have the idea of burning a cold stove and have the idea of flattering the Empress Dowager Qu.
After all, as the main mother of the Fuyang Wang's lineage, her background is not bad, and the Empress Dowager Yuan has had her own henchmen since she married into the Fuyang Royal Mansion as a princess, and she has never lacked people for many years, and rarely recruits outsiders. And Empress Dowager Qu is different, she came from a humble background, she was bought and sold into the palace like a commodity, and she didn't have the ability to get a team for herself.
With Chunjia's pro-government, there are always some palace people who want to go off the rails, thinking that the Queen Mother is also the emperor's biological mother no matter how she says, and it is impossible to follow her without a head.
And it's stable.
Compared with favorite concubines such as noble concubines, when they are powerful, they are certainly powerful, and even the queen mother has to be tactful; Once he falls out of favor, such as Concubine An, the end will be very bleak.
It is better to take refuge in the Queen Mother, but if Chunjia does not lose his position and has a rich and noble status, then there is a guarantee.
Therefore, in the seven years since Chunjia, the Empress Dowager Yuan has not only failed to eradicate the Empress Dowager Qu, but even has become more and more difficult to suppress the Jiashan Palace.
At this moment, she immediately thought of the Empress Dowager Qu, "The mourning family has raised the emperor, even if the emperor's mind has gradually been hooked by Xiaoyun and the like in the past two years, he is not the kind of faint monarch who is led by the nose after all." Xiaoyun's ...... It is said that it is a great favor, but in the real military affairs, it is impossible to intervene. The mourning family can't help her, and she can't help the mourning family. Qu's ...... It's pretty much the same. The possibility of the mourning family killing her is getting lower and lower now, but she wants to turn over, but if the mourning family lives for a day, it is impossible! ”
Empress Dowager Yuan sighed slowly, "Whether she or the Xiaoyun family, they can only hope that the mourning family is dead, or that they will make a heinous mistake and have a lot of trouble with the emperor...... Otherwise, no matter how unwilling they are, they can only endure it! The emperor is smart and understands everything, but people are not ruthless, he is just ...... In some things, in some places, he is not willing to delve too deeply, lest all parties fail to step down and make him embarrassed and sad! ”
And how many big mistakes can make Empress Dowager Yuan abandon Chunjia?
Ordinary murder and arson, in the eyes of the emperor, his adoptive mother did this...... That's it.
What's wrong?
If you want to be wrong, it should be that the person who was killed is not sensible enough, the Queen Mother wants you to die, isn't it good for you to honestly kneel down and stretch out your neck to lead your neck? Why bother? Why do you still cry out for injustice? Why do you still attack the Queen Mother?
Empress Dowager Yuan still has this little confidence, as long as she kills not the ones Chunjia also cares about, Chunjia will definitely not blame a word.
There is actually only one kind of mother-son friendship like theirs that can cause great harm: betrayal.
But Empress Dowager Yuan is not a fool, how could she betray Chunjia?
Even if it is made into a game with ironclad evidence to frame her, it will not be able to convince Chunjia to believe it.
After all, whether it is in terms of interests or feelings, it is impossible for Empress Dowager Yuan to betray Chunjia.
She has no children under her knees, Chunjia is a child raised by her, except for being more protective of Yunfeng Huang and not taking enough care of the Yuan family, there is nothing to blame for the Queen Mother. This child is still the biggest guarantee for her and the Yuan family, how crazy does this be to betray Chunjia? Who can she turn to after her betrayal? Who can give her similar treatment? Besides, Empress Dowager Yuan is not the kind of master who can be the master of her own house!
Without Chunjia, most of her life's hard work and hard work will be ruined!
It's too late for her to protect Chunjia!
But starting with the Eighth Prince is different.
It is well known that it is impossible for Empress Dowager Yuan to betray Chunjia, but she also has her own careful thoughts, that is, to prepare for the future of the Yuan family.
This is from the fact that the three Yuan daughters entered the palace one after another, and from the beginning of the opposition of the queen and the concubine, Yuan Yuniang was also made a virtuous concubine, and from the special care of the eighth prince...... It's all visible.
Then the Queen Mother will not be unfavorable to Chunjia, but it may be unfavorable to Chunjia's other children for the sake of the Eighth Prince, and even, it is logical to get involved in the dispute between the princes.
If it was just like this, the emperor would be bored at most, and he would be more distant and beaten from the queen mother, and it would not reach the point of a rupture.
Because to be honest, it is understandable that ordinary people's grandmothers are partial to their grandchildren.
But......
If the Eighth Prince is not of Chunjia blood, this is a big problem.
If the Empress Dowager Yuan knew about this but pretended not to know for the benefit of the Yuan family, or to protect the Yuan family, then ......
"The problem now is to find out whether the eighth prince is the blood of the emperor." Empress Dowager Yuan said this, and then laughed, "Whether it's the concubine or the Qu family, these two ...... It's okay not to turn it out, now that it's out, then, most of the life experience of the Eighth Prince does have some problems! ”
Dipping Liu was frightened, swallowed his saliva, held the hope of what happened, and whispered: "Niangniang, maybe they are deliberately sensational...... So cut off the future of the Eighth Prince! You think, when Concubine Xian gave birth outside, you always sent someone to take care of her. Where did they come from, to drop the bag right under your nose? ”
When Empress Dowager Yuan heard this, she turned her head sideways to look at her, and after a moment, she smiled helplessly and said, "Dip willow, dip willow, concubine and Qu are indeed incapable of dropping the heir of the emperor in Wannian County." But have you forgotten? Gardenia and Xingningbo Mansion, but they may not have this ability! ”
The Queen Mother showed a sad look on her face, "Do you still remember what Xingningbo and his wife came to the palace to cry to the mourning family that year?" They said that the Son of Heaven was tired of the Yuan family, not only did he not get close to the Yuan family's daughter, but he also did not have much importance to the Yuan family's children in the temple. When the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, he chose six companions. Ji Mingji is Ji's son, and he is destined to have no good end. But Yuan Shu has never achieved anything, which shows the estrangement between the Son of Heaven and the Yuan family...... What did the mourners say? The mourning family first told them the truth. Because of Ji's lesson, the Son of Heaven will definitely not get close to any of his relatives. ”
"Especially if the Son of Heaven respects the mourning family, then it will not let the Yuan family have the opportunity to hold power!"
"But the emperor will not teach the Yuan family to be too wronged, and the title and wealth that should be given will never be less. Otherwise, when Gardenia was able to be a virtuous concubine, was it really the mourning family who pressed the queen and the concubine? The queen is also okay, as for the concubine, a person like her, she really doesn't want Gardenia to make up for the lack of a virtuous concubine, what can't be done? But she and the queen won the title of queen in advance for King Qin and King Chu, what can they do to Gardenia? No! Is she afraid of Gardenia and the mourning family? It's just that I'm afraid of provoking the emperor's dislike! ”
"Even if Concubine An is not favored by the noble concubine, it is impossible for the emperor to raise the Yuan family. In Ji's case, any son of heaven comes over, but as long as he still has a little brain, there is nothing that is not taboo. How can it be possible to give latecomers another chance? ”
"The mourning family told them not to think so much, rather than seeing the eyes of the sky and seeing that other people's children are highly used, it is better to think about it behind closed doors and carefully cultivate their children and grandchildren."
"After a few years, the mourning family is old, the traces of the Yuan family in the palace have faded, the children of the Yuan family have also become talents, and the status of the emperor has been completely stabilized, maybe, they are also willing to give the Yuan family a chance......"
She let out a long sigh, as a person from the princess to the concubine and then to the queen mother, the Empress Dowager Yuan is actually very sober and rational in most cases.
But the Yuan family behind her is not like this.
Xingningbo Mansion took turns to come to the door to cry and complain about grievances, anxiety and worry...... Of course, from Yuan's point of view, they have a reason to do so.
The Yuan family lived in Fuyang County and was a famous local family.
But because of the Empress Dowager Yuan, she was involved in the top whirlpool of the dynasty, and Chunjia ascended the throne for eight years.
In this way, Chunjia is finally in power, and the result is?
Their daughter-in-law, Yuan Neem Niang, who had no guesses with the emperor's childhood sweetheart, fell out of favor.
Even the child was not saved.
The pillar of their family, the Empress Dowager Yuan, is still respected by the emperor, but when she faced the young concubine, she was broken again and again, and her liver and intestines were broken!
The children of their family were first imprisoned with Ji Mingji, and then forgotten by the emperor.
Seeing Deng Chengzhai, Zheng Fengtong, Gong Xiangxiao, and Yunqike relying on the love of accompanying them back then, the lord of Shang is still the master, and the man is on the rise. Even if Gong Xiangxiao, the eldest son of the regent, was first the Marquis of Shouning, and now he is the King of Yi, how bad is this ending?
Only Yuan, from top to bottom, nothing.
Those eight years of hard work and hardship, the trek of thousands of miles with the holy car to the imperial capital...... Simply fed the dog with all his heart!
The Yuan family was angry and aggrieved, and wanted the queen mother to support the six princes and eight princes, and even coveted the position of the prince, is it wrong?
Empress Dowager Yuan felt that this was understandable.
But is Chunjia wrong again?
Chunjia is not wrong, as the Son of Heaven, isn't it within his duty to learn the lessons of his predecessors and avoid the fall of imperial power?
The Empress Dowager Yuan, who was sandwiched in the middle, was the most tormented.
The problem is that neither side can understand her suffering, Chunjia's idea is that the protection of the queen mother is fine, why always worry about the family? Yuan's thought is, Queen Mother, of course you sit back and relax now, but don't you care about what's going on at home? When you persuaded us to help your heir ascend to the throne, that's not what you said!
“…… The mourning family remembered that the mourning family had compromised with the Yuan family at that time. Empress Dowager Yuan sighed again, that time, her younger brother and sister-in-law knelt on the hall, kowtowed again and again, they were also grandfathers and grandmothers, their sideburns were slightly frosty, and their foreheads were red...... It's really pitiful, the queen mother was soft-hearted for a while, so she promised, "The mourning family said that if Gardenia gave birth to a male heir, the mourning family would plan a future for her." If it is the princess, then the mourning family will also have some mercy, but don't think about the rest. The emperor is not such a faint king, he has his own opinions in his heart about the major affairs of the family and the country, and it is not something that the mourning family or anyone else can control. ”
Then, on the way back from the palace, Yuan Yuniang had to stop in Wannian County and give birth because of the fetal gas.
Although she was greatly damaged, she gave birth to a prince.
Before today, Empress Dowager Yuan had never doubted her niece, let alone the Yuan family.
