From this day on, there is no one in the Sixth Palace who wants Concubine Xian to recover from her illness and return to normal more than Gu Zhen.

She even began to copy scriptures and pray for Concubine Xian in private, hoping that Yuan Yanniang would sink away overnight and be alive......

However, the heavens are not beautiful, and in the news from Yanhong Palace, Concubine Xian is getting worse and worse day by day, and she sounds like she is going straight to Qi Ruosi and may die anytime and anywhere.

In this case, there is a good reason for Empress Dowager Yuan to summon the queen to count the falls: "...... A good child is like this, how old is the Eighth Prince now? I don't know anything yet, if I don't have my mother, how pitiful will I be in the future? Of course, this is no wonder the queen, but if the queen is more careful, it will not make the witness die in vain overnight, at least the mourning family can also track down the real murderer and avenge the virtuous concubine, and the eighth prince will be older in the future, so he will have an explanation! Now it'......"

The Queen Mother began to wipe her tears, whispering comfort left and right, Gu Zhen endured vomiting blood and knelt down to plead guilty, saying that all this was her own fault, she was sorry for her mother, the Queen Mother was sorry, the Concubine Xian was sorry, and she was sorry for the Eighth Prince, and took advantage of the situation to say tentatively: "The daughter-in-law is really shameless to face the Eighth Prince, or else, please ask Concubine An to help take care of the Eighth Prince for the time being?" Now as long as the daughter-in-law sees the eighth prince, she thinks of the poor sister of the virtuous concubine, the daughter-in-law is really ......"

Before her tears could brew, Empress Dowager Yuan looked at her with tears and a look of surprise: "So, Concubine Xian and her son are so pitiful, you still have to hand over the eighth prince to Concubine An to raise, it's not that Concubine An is bad, but what is Concubine An's position?" The rules of the palace are forbidden, and the adoptive mother must be higher than the biological mother, you ...... Where are you consciously sorry for the virtuous concubine, you are deliberately humiliating the poor eighth prince! ”

Cry and cry!

At this time, even the close attendant dipped in the willow couldn't help but say to the queen: "The queen mother is sad enough, why should the queen mother say such things to stab the queen mother's heart?" Even if you don't like the Eighth Prince, you don't have to say this in front of the Queen Mother! ”

“…… This is not what Hongu meant. Gu Zhen pinched his palm hard to hold back the urge to get angry, and said to the Empress Dowager Yuan with a smile, "Queen Mother, the daughter-in-law is just ashamed of herself, and she feels that she is not worthy of taking care of the Eighth Prince, there is absolutely no other meaning, you must not be careful." It is also a daughter-in-law's temperament - straight, and close to the queen mother, what she wants to say, she is not thoughtful, please don't be like her daughter-in-law. How could a daughter-in-law not like the Eighth Prince? The daughter-in-law herself is not blessed, and she can't personally continue the heir for His Majesty, the eighth prince is fair-skinned and lovely, and the daughter-in-law likes it when she sees it. ”

She was so hateful that she was about to drip blood at this time: Originally, according to Yun Fenghuang's words during the summer vacation, Empress Dowager Yuan and Xingning Bofu would go to the mother and keep the son after confirming that Yuan Yuniang gave birth to a healthy prince, and stuffed it to raise herself, replacing the prince born by the Gu family, in order to seek the East Palace!

This is already very embarrassing for Gu Zhen and the Gu family.

But at present, it seems that the actual arrangement of Empress Dowager Yuan is even more vicious and filthy than what Yun Fenghuang said!

In Gu Zhen's opinion, if the eighth prince has just landed, and Yuan Yanniang will be gone, then the advantage is that this child may be credited to her name and become a concubine, but ...... As a concubine who passed away as a concubine adopted by his mother, this is a concubine!

The Eighth Prince should be grateful to her.

Even the Empress Dowager Yuan and Xingning Bofu should also thank her.

But what is the situation today?

Although the eighth prince is recorded in the name of Concubine Xian, he is not considered a concubine, but Concubine Xian's condition has worsened and she has been harmed, and the only clues and many witnesses have been killed in the hands of her, the queen.

So she couldn't find the murderer one day, and she was sorry for Concubine Xian and sorry for the Eighth Prince for a day.

In this case, she adopted the Eighth Prince, which was not grace, but atonement.

It is conceivable that when these eight princes grow up, will they be grateful to her?

No, it's not bad for him to round up and think that the queen is his mother's enemy.

Although Gu Zhen didn't care about the gratitude of this cheap son, after all, she was more concerned about the three princes and the king of Chu, but!

Outsiders don't think so.

People who don't know it will feel that the queen is sorry for the eighth prince.

No matter how good the queen is to the eighth prince, the queen should prefer the eighth prince.

If the Eighth Prince is only the Eighth Prince, then Gu Zhen can still suppress these rumors and opinions with the help of his mother's bullet, but the Eighth Prince is not alone.

Empress Dowager Yuan and Xingning Bofu will inevitably add fuel to the fire and knock to death the "fact" that the queen is sorry for him.

Gu Zhen's teeth were itching, and he regretted that he didn't pay enough attention to Yun Fenglian's reminder before, and he didn't stop Chunjia's persuasion, and took the eighth prince to Chongchang Palace.

This is just a hot potato, this is simply an ancestor!

What Yun Fenghuang said is really an understatement, what after raising this child, but if there is a little wind and grass, he will be asked by the Chun Xuan Palace?

This is to take an ancestor to him, and the three incense sticks in the morning, noon and evening are not enough, okay!!

Gu Zhen didn't know how she got out of the Chunyun Palace, and when she returned to the Chongchang Palace, she didn't even care about changing her dress, so she asked people to pass the word to the family and ask the family to help with ideas.

The old lady of the Gu family was very calm: "Although the Queen Mother is mean and unkind, she is not an uninteresting person. Not to mention that Your Majesty is not a foolish master. Our family is here, not to mention that the queen is raising the eighth prince well, even if she really deliberately raises the eighth prince, will the royal family still be abolished? At most, it was just found fault with the Queen Mother, how big of a deal? Let the queen endure it, she can't do it for such a thing, and let the family take action. Otherwise, if you dislike Your Majesty, it will be worth the loss. ”

He was speaking from the position of the Gu family, and felt that after learning the lessons of the Ji family, as a descendant, he should not act in inconsequential matters, otherwise, it would be easy to be fooled when he met the faint monarch.

A clear-eyed person like Chunjia has a lot of small actions, and he may not know when he will start to settle the accounts again and again.

Therefore, even if you are not afraid of the Empress Dowager and the Xingningbo Mansion, but good steel is used on the blade, this kind of thing will not really affect the status of the queen and the status of the Gu family at all...... Old lady Gu didn't want to toss.

He himself has never been a daughter-in-law or a mother-in-law, so he didn't take it seriously.

Mrs. Zhao Wubo and Gu Zhen's mother-in-law understand this feeling, her relationship with her mother-in-law is not bad, and she gets along politely after running in for a few years after entering the door, she still feels uncomfortable in retrospect, let alone her daughter's situation?

Therefore, he still fought for his daughter in front of his father-in-law: "Dad, although this is the case, how scheming is the Queen Mother?" If she holds a grudge and blindly grinds the queen, how can the queen stand it for a long time? ”

"The Empress Dowager is also from a serious family, and the Fuyang Yuan family can't look good now, so it's a local family." Old lady Gu waved her hand and said, "Even if she doesn't like the queen, can she still do it against the middle palace?" At most, it's not good, so the queen shouldn't have heard it, right? Many mothers-in-law in the market are also difficult to get along with, and many daughters-in-law can stand it, what can the queen bear? The queen is also older, you don't have to be like a little girl everywhere to protect her, you don't have to let her think so, but it's easy to develop a weak heart. ”

Mrs. Zhao Wubo was angry but didn't dare to say anything, so she could only smile and say, "Yes, it's the daughter-in-law who didn't think it through." ”

turned her head and went to the palace to tell Gu Zhen what had happened, and the mother and daughter just hugged their heads and cried, feeling that this day was too sad.

"How about you call yourself sick?" Mrs. Zhao Wubo thought about it and gave advice to her daughter, "Or simply let the credible imperial doctor prescribe some prescriptions, and if you are sick at that time, you will be afraid that you will be sick to the princes, and it is logical to move the eight princes out." ”

Gu Zhen frowned and said, "I didn't take it that day, so I thought so." But His Majesty's eyes are like torches, and he bluntly said that I was pretending. If you ...... again now? I'm afraid it's hard for Your Majesty to explain. ”

At this time, you can see the importance of the emperor's favor, if it is Yun Fenghuang who is pretending to be sick, the emperor will most likely not expose it.

will even help her out.

However, Gu Zhen didn't have such treatment - Mrs. Zhao Wubo frowned, thought back and forth about her father-in-law's words for a moment, and said abruptly: "Then why don't you follow your grandfather's wishes?" ”

Seeing that Gu Zhen was at a loss, she sneered: "Didn't your grandfather say that with the status of our family, even if you have the intention to raise the Eighth Emperor to be a good person, it doesn't matter?" Well, you should really raise that little thing to death! The Empress Dowager sent three nieces into the palace to serve Her Majesty, but only the virtuous concubine gave birth to such a little bit of blood. If the Eighth Prince has three longs and two shorts, see what other bad moves they can make? Anyway, your grandfather said that Your Majesty will not be abolished because of such a small thing. In that case, what are you afraid of? As for the place where you offended the Queen Mother, you just offered the eighth prince, and you also owed the mother and son of the virtuous concubine, is there a difference? ”

Gu Zhen hesitated, because she couldn't give birth, and she was left out in the palace for many years, she was sincere to her adopted sons, and even for the eighth prince who didn't want to raise, although she was heavy, she poisoned such a young child, which ......

"Is this the time to be soft-hearted?" Seeing this, her mother was anxious, hating a little bit of iron and steel, and shouted, "You are soft on that little thing, but the Empress Dowager and Concubine Xian and Xingning Bofu will be soft on you?!" You think about the trust of your family, and you think about yourself! Moreover, you have been picked by the Queen Mother, are you still in the mood to take care of the other children under your knees? Don't forget that Gu Su is pregnant now, her naïve and ignorant sex, without you to look at it, let alone give birth to an imperial heir, I'm afraid she can't even save her own life! ”

"......" Gu Zhen sighed when he was persuaded in the end, and said, "I know, don't worry, mother, I just feel aggrieved." In fact, the eighth prince is also innocent, what does he know at a young age? But there were so many elders on the stall, and they gave him his life. ”

Lady Zhao Wubo sneered when she heard this: "If his elders feel a little distressed about him, they will definitely pick him up in advance." When the time comes, everyone will be fine, and that's it. But if they don't feel distressed, then the child was not born by you, so why should you care? The three princes and the king of Chu, as well as the imperial heir in Gu Su's belly, which one doesn't need you more? ”

The mother and daughter then decided on this plan, but it was not easy to implement for the time being.

The main reason is that Concubine Xian hasn't taken her last breath yet, compared to Concubine Xian who has been lying on the bed for a few days, the Eighth Prince has been a good child since he was born, if he actually had a good one step before his biological mother died, how could Empress Dowager Yuan and Xingning Bofu give up?

Even if Old Lady Gu said that the emperor would not depose the queen for the sake of the eighth prince, if the queen fell into the reputation of not caring about the concubine, or even deliberately putting the eighth prince to death, it would not be good for the concubine to establish a prince in the future.

In the end, there is still a cloud wind fence in the palace, and the tiger is eyeing the side.

Although Yun Fenghuang has not publicly expressed his coveting of the East Palace and Qingci Palace, no one will think that this is a pure-hearted master.

"Take care of it first, and when the virtuous concubine is gone, the Chunyu Palace will be picky again and again, and then the eighth prince will not be able to raise it." That's what the mother and daughter were going to do.

And Yun Fenghuang watched coldly, I heard that the queen was sad at first, and after returning from the Spring Palace that day, her fingers were trembling on the road, as if she was angry, but since Mrs. Zhao Wubo entered the palace, her mood seemed to be much better.

Although he still looked in a bad mood outside, he had returned to normal in private, and he often hugged the third prince and laughed with the king of Chu in person...... Immediately frowned: "Didn't Mrs. Zhao Wubo give her some idea to make her think that the matter of the Eighth Prince can be solved?" ”

Chen Jing muttered at the bottom: "Shouldn't it be?" After all, the Empress Dowager tried her best to send someone to Chongchang Hall after even taking Concubine Xian, how could the queen easily resign? ”

"Then how can the queen be so easy?" Yun Fenghuang leaned back and said lightly, "You should know very well what the queen was like two days ago, and if you want to say that she didn't have some tricks at this time, this palace won't believe it!" ”

asked Chen Jing, how did the queen treat the eighth prince in the past two days?

Chen Jing said: "Everything is as usual...... Oh, the queen mother actually doesn't pay much attention to the eight princes in private, but just knocks on the attendants, and she has to take care of the eight princes. ”

Yun Fenghuang's eyes rolled, and he pondered for a moment, as if he said to himself: "This is a little wrong...... Bengong told her before that this eighth prince was a hot potato, and she clearly listened to it...... After that, she was very indignant about the actions of the Empress Dowager...... But no matter how indignant she is, it is said that she will not dare to snub the eighth prince, lest she be found fault by the Queen Mother? ”

"Could it be that he was angry with the actions of the Empress Dowager of Loving Mother, so he was angry with the Eighth Prince?" Chen Jing guessed.

Yun Fenghuang shook his head and said: "The queen was born in a famous family, and she has been in the palace for many years, she is used to conformism, but she is not the kind of person who does not follow common sense, even if she is angry with the eighth prince, unless she has an idea, she will definitely not give the Empress Dowager for such a trivial matter." ”

After all, the eighth prince is still young now, and Gu Zhen came to him and scolded him, Concubine Xian, Empress Dowager Yuan, and Xingning Bofu...... He didn't understand.

Make a show to stabilize the Empress Dowager Yuan, so as to gain time to think of countermeasures, in Yun Fenghuang's opinion, this is what Gu Zhen will do.

That's what most people do.

As for sealing, locking, eliminating, and not letting Empress Dowager Yuan know......

The few talents in the Taoli Hall were wiped out in the Chongchang Palace, if there was no accident, it should be presided over by the Empress Dowager Yuan.

In this case, Gu Zhen was stupid to believe that his act of snubbing the Eighth Prince could be concealed from Empress Dowager Yuan!

So......

Yun Fenghuang narrowed his eyes and asked abruptly: "You say, if the queen mother raises the eighth prince with three long and two short, how can the queen mother have her?" ”
