Chapter 149: Self-Appointed Emperor
Behind her, Princess Cheng suddenly said, "So Niangniang is very waiting to see Concubine Ling?" But yes, although Concubine Ling and Niangniang have been at odds for many years, there is one thing that has contributed to Niangniang, presumably it is precisely because of this incident that Niangniang has always allowed her, right? ”
The crown princess couldn't help but stop and turned her head to look at her: "Do you know a lot about the affairs between our wives and concubines?" Okay, let's hear about it. ”
Princess Cheng came to her and said, "Back then, the concubine was allowed by her father to the sixth brother, but when she was measuring the eight characters, it was a coincidence, and she was not in harmony. And the eight characters don't fit this play, isn't it that Concubine Ling is jealous, so she bought someone to do it? Because of this, the concubine did not marry into the East Palace, which is also in line with the mother's wishes. Niangniang looked at it like this, oops, this hateful Concubine Ling also has her benefits, she is jealous of her love, but her husband just spoils her, and her status is still very stable. If you keep her, how can you stop the woman in the future? The concubine went to do it herself. So the mother kept the wolf of the side concubine to watch the door of the backyard, and she could expel a lot of enemies for herself. ”
After hearing this, the crown princess smiled coldly: "Heh! Princess Cheng, let's not talk about the rights and wrongs between our wives and concubines, just say that you bring up these old words today, what do you mean? Do you hold a grudge against the side concubine? Or do you still hold a grudge against this concubine? Or do you always regret not marrying into the East Palace? ”
After the crown princess finished speaking, she suddenly showed a meaningful smile: "Oh, this is interesting, are you still thinking about your sixth brother in your heart?" Hehe, no, it's too late, even if the feelings allow, this ethics is not allowed? I don't know how King Cheng will feel when he hears that you are rehashing the old things here today? ”
Now the crown princess fought back perfectly, and Princess Cheng was a little difficult to parry, Yingying's smiling face also collapsed, and her apricot eyes widened: "Niangniang, what are you talking nonsense?" Time has passed for so many years, and the concubine body should have forgotten for a long time. Today's re-mention of the old things is just to admire the mother's deep thoughts. Niangniang don't expect to use this to separate the relationship between the concubine and the husband and wife of the king, Niangniang has this kung fu, it is better to beg the father and the emperor a few more times, so that the sixth brother can return as soon as possible and the husband and wife can get together. You know, we women, without a husband, it's like the sky is falling, how long can a person last? At this time, if there is a small wind and waves, the mother will not be able to bear it. ”
The crown princess's beautiful eyes lit up, and her eyebrows were filled with heroism: "What? Do you still want to do something to this palace? ”
Princess Cheng smiled slowly: "What's the matter, if we don't know what to do, just follow the husband obediently, and let the husband support the sky above our heads." The crown princess said in a deep voice: "Okay! This concubine is looking at it, whether it is your husband who has gone far, or my husband who has soared! After speaking, she turned away, her gait was sharp, and her skirt was raised in the wind, like a phoenix about to rise in the wind.
……
Spring does not change, and the days are as usual. But inside the harvest year, the atmosphere is getting more and more tense. The doctors had a diagnosis every two days, but found that the prescription did not clear the snake venom in Emperor Qian's body, and the heart was not affected by Emperor Qian's physique, so they changed the prescription again, but after two days of re-diagnosis, they were surprised to find that it was still useless. The imperial doctors didn't know why, but they knew that there was no problem with the prescription, it was jointly prescribed by them, but it was useless to eat it for Emperor Qian. The imperial doctors were confused and panicked, and re-prescribed the medicine for Emperor Qian, but after revisiting the clinic two days later, they found that it was still useless. In this way, the prescription was changed again and again, and the doctors diagnosed and diagnosed, and after ten days, Emperor Qian's condition became more and more serious, his face was swollen, his asthma became heavier, and the snake venom in his body did not subside.
The doctors were helpless. These days, all the medicines that can be used have been used, but for some reason, when I got to Emperor Qian, it was useless.
Emperor Qiandi was tortured by snake venom, and as soon as people were uncomfortable, his temper became irritable, and he pointed at several imperial doctors and scolded: "A bunch of quacks!" I can't take any snake venom, so what's the use of raising you! ”
The doctors knelt on the ground in unison, terrified. After Emperor Qiandi scolded, he gasped for a long time, then pounded the bed and said, "I don't believe it!" I am the true dragon emperor, I will be defeated by this snake venom! You guys figure it out right away! I can still hold on!! ”
The doctors looked at each other and discussed it, and the only decision was to continue to change the prescription. The courtiers and princes, as well as the princesses and princesses, all knelt on the ground and jointly asked Emperor Qian to end this year's personal cultivation early, return to Luan, and recuperate in the palace. Emperor Qiandi pondered it for a while, and finally ordered that this year's pro-cultivation was over, and everyone returned to the city in advance.
In this way, the mountain garden ploughing was not half a month, and it ended early, and everyone returned to the city in a mighty way.
Now that he returned to the palace, Emperor Qiandi had more careful care and treatment. In order to concentrate on recuperation and recuperation, Emperor Qiandi orally decreed that the dynasty should be dismissed for a few days, during which the king would supervise the country and temporarily assume the position of the holy lord.
When this command was issued, it seemed that the wind was turning sharply, and everyone seemed to have spied on something amazing. But then, what was surprising was that King Cheng changed his previous competitive style, and was rarely humble, and refused to accept the important task of supervising the country, saying that he was incompetent and incompetent, and it was difficult to take on a big responsibility, and he and Qiao Fengzhi strongly recommended King Hao to supervise the country.
Emperor Qian's heart was only temporary, and whoever would act as the agent for government affairs was the same, so he agreed. In this way, King Hao suddenly stood out, came into everyone's sight, inherited the jade seal from Emperor Qian, and took on the responsibility of supervising the country. The direction of the wind followed and turned sharply, and suddenly, Concubine De was in the harem, and the concubines stammered, flattered, and gifted, so they were not proud.
At this time, there were rumors in Beijing, which spread all over the world, with noses and eyes. said that the king had a disease, and Concubine De's mother was untied with careful care, and finally moved the king's heart, so the monarch was inclined to have the heart of Yi Chu, and wanted to abolish the prince, and set up the son of Concubine De, King Hao, as the prince, and so on.
Such rumors spread so vividly that they spread almost everywhere. For a time, Concubine De's mother and son were in the limelight. The son is calling for wind and rain in the front court, and the mother is in the harem.
However, on the third day of King Hao's reign, he ushered in the biggest problem in history. This difficult problem shocked the government and the opposition.
King Hao had no choice, so he came to Concubine De's palace that day to tell the truth, Concubine De listened, and said with a sad face: "Hey, Hao'er, the mother concubine is just a woman in the deep palace, where do you know about the major affairs of the court?" The stakes are high, so you should go to your father and let him make the decision. ”
King Hao said: "Mother, but, at this juncture, how can my father be hit again?" ”
Concubine De said: "Hey, this is also something that can't be helped, except for your father, no one can speak on this matter." You'd better go and tell your father. ”
In this way, King Hao came to the Emperor Phoenix Hall where Emperor Qiandi was recuperating.
"Jing Hao is here?" Emperor Qian, lying on the dragon bed, asked weakly. After the king of Hao saluted, he sat down on the footstool in front of the bed, and said with a solemn face: "Father, your snake venom has not been cleared, the dragon is unwell, and the son-in-law has also been imprisoned in the country, I didn't want to disturb your recuperation, but this matter is really important, and the son-in-law can't do this ......."
Emperor Qian asked, "What is the matter?" ”
King Hao said in a difficult tone: "Father, it's the sixth brother, the sixth brother he, he is ......"
"What's wrong with Jingcheng?!" Emperor Qian's eyes immediately widened, quite nervous.
King Hao is still a stumbling person: "Sixth brother, he is actually in the Southern Wilderness...... He has established himself as emperor. ”
"What?!" Emperor Qian couldn't believe it, grabbed King Hao's sleeve, and said, "You say it again, say it again!" ”
King Hao stubbornly repeated: "Father, the sixth brother has established himself as the emperor in the Southern Wilderness." ”
The atmosphere was quiet for a moment, and the next moment, Emperor Qian's roar suddenly broke out, resounding throughout the dormitory: "Get out!!!! ”
King Hao was frightened and hurriedly knelt on the ground. Emperor Qian's eyes widened angrily, his eyes were red, and he gasped and scolded: "You guys, you don't have a good thing!" Everyone wants to kill Jingcheng! I don't believe it, I don't believe it!! ”
King Hao explained: "Father, the emperor and his sons don't want to believe it, but this is a fact! The sixth brother is the people's desire, a hundred responses, there are still a lot of people who support him, he has established a force in Nanqian in the past six months, and now the time is ripe, he actually occupied the Nanxiao City in the Southern Wilderness, and sealed the city as a basis, and took the commander of the city army and his family, and put the officials in the city under house arrest, and those who obey me prosper and rebel against me to force them to take refuge! Sixth Brother has already killed several officials! In order to protect his family, the commander of the city army surrendered to the sixth brother, and in this way, the city army was also included in the bag of the sixth brother! At the same time, the sixth brother proclaimed himself the emperor, and he was also recruiting talents in the city, wanting to establish a new dynasty! ”
"Poof!" Emperor Qian suddenly vomited blood, and said angrily: "I don't believe it!" I don't believe it!! I don't believe it!! With that, he grabbed his son's collar, gritted his teeth, and said, "How did this news come about?" Who sent it?! ”
His angry face was close at hand, his lips were stained with bright red blood, and his angry eyes were bloodshot, and the waves were tumbling inside.
After all, King Hao was young, and when he saw that he was vomiting blood and angry at this time, he was frightened, and persuaded in a trembling voice: "Father is angry, father is angry!" Erchen should call you the imperial doctor first! ”
"Say! How did the news come about!! Emperor Qiandi held on to him, and the whole person was like a wounded lion, brewing a rage that swallowed mountains and rivers.
Seeing that he couldn't escape, King Hao said in a panic: "Father, is it...... It was Lord Cheng Yan of Nanxiao City who pretended to take refuge in the sixth brother, and after winning his trust, he secretly passed a letter to the prefect of Ying'an City nearby, and told him about the matter. The prefect of Ying'an City received the secret letter and came up as soon as he received the excerpt. ”
Emperor Qiandi panted like an ox, let go of King Hao's collar, and fell back on the bed weakly, a pair of blood-red eyes slowly turned for a long time, and finally said: "I don't believe it, I still don't believe it." Jing Hao! Listen to me, don't discuss this matter with any minister! Then give me a decree to summon the prince back to Beijing! I want to see him! I want to see Jingcheng!! As he spoke, he tilted his head sharply, and spit out another mouthful of blood, his face the color of pig's liver.
King Hao was shocked and promised again and again: "Father is angry!" Erchen will do it, and he will do it! Father, you are angry! "Someone! Tell the Doctor!! ”
