Chapter 152: There is an inexplicable tacit understanding
The emperor favored Qin Zhaoyi, and had the intention of making the second prince the crown prince, but he would not have the idea of making the fifth prince the crown prince.
Empress Dowager Bai knows this.
Empress Dowager Bai thought to herself, the emperor and Qin Zhaoyi invited Jiaojiao to come to treat the five princes, I'm afraid they are not setting a trap for Jiaojiao?
knows that Jiaojiao's heart may not have a second prince. The emperor and Qin Zhaoyi asked Jiaojiao to treat the five princes, this doctor is healing, it is inevitable to get a needle for the patient or something.
At that time, Qin Zhaoyi can use this to talk about things, and will say that since Jiaojiao has done her best, let Jiaojiao marry the fifth prince.
The fifth prince married Jiaojiao, and he must have earned it.
Because the five princes themselves do not have the advantage of competing for the crown, let alone the ambition to compete for the prince. But he has had a good relationship with his second brother since he was a child. He will definitely work hard for his second brother and his wife, that is, the delicate mother's family.
If that's the case, the people of the Bai family will inevitably only be able to help the second prince, because if the second prince becomes the crown prince and becomes the emperor in the future, he will definitely not treat the five princes and Yi Chao badly
No matter how well the five princes live in the future, at most they will only be a prince, a prince with fiefdoms and gold and silver treasures. A prince who does not have a heavy army in his hands, how can he be compared with the emperor of the Dajing Dynasty?
Jiaojiao married a prince, how can Jiaojiao marry into the palace and be a queen with a noble status?
From the perspective of a woman, Empress Dowager Bai considered a lot of practical problems for Bai Jiaojiao.
Jiaojiao is the concubine of the long house of the White Mansion, and if she wants to marry, she must marry the future crown prince as a concubine, and become the queen in the future.
When Zhaoyi is always pressed by the queen, she has to be careful everywhere to protect her own thoughtfulness.
If the queen treats people well, it is okay to say; If you don't treat people well, you will be unlucky sooner or later, and you will bring the people of your own family.
Suffer with you.
Empress Dowager Bai didn't want to see that kind of scene.
In order to prevent some tragedies from happening, Empress Dowager Bai was so anxious that she really couldn't take care of too many cumbersome etiquette. hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out his hand and tapped the door of the fifth prince's bedroom, and said, "Emperor, open the door quickly." ”
Seeing that the door was not opened, the Empress Dowager Bai stood outside the door and explained: "This palace wants to go in to meet Jiaojiao and say a few words to her." ”
In the bedroom of the five princes.
The emperor and Qin Zhaoyi both heard the knock on the door, and the two exchanged glances with each other, wanting to say that Jiaojiao was prick a needle for the fifth prince at this moment. I stuck the needle with my eyes closed.
If the door is opened, it will affect Jiaojiao's treatment of the five princes, it will not be good.
But Empress Dowager Bai is an elder, and people come to look for Jiaojiao to care about Jiaojiao. The two of them, as the juniors of the Empress Dowager Bai, can't ignore them.
The emperor didn't open the door, walked to the back of the bedroom door, and said to the Empress Dowager Bai through the closed wooden door: "Queen Mother, Jiaojiao is prick a needle for Ying'er." Please wait for a while, and the sons will welcome the queen. In. ”
Empress Dowager Bai was holding back a wave of anger in her heart, and she wanted to say that she wanted the emperor to open the door first, and she also wanted to go in and see Ying'er.
But Empress Dowager Bai's brain is extraordinarily sober, and she knows that the current emperor is no longer the one who followed her in the past, happily called the queen mother around her, and listened to her very much.
The well-behaved and obedient Lin'er gradually moved away from her as early as when he grew up and was made the crown prince. Although Lin'er is still Lin'er today, she, the elder who raised him, can no longer call him Lin'er affectionately after seeing him, but can only call him "emperor".
Lin'er has grown up a long time ago, and his personality is becoming more and more like his deceased father, and sometimes he becomes more ruthless. Even in many cases, Lin'er was more ruthless than his father when dealing with certain things.
Don't talk about it from afar, let's just say that Yan'er's biological mother, what a beautiful person and what a clean person. It's a pity that after marrying Lin'er and fulfilling the request of the elders of their two families to marry.
Yan'er's maternal grandfather's family helped Lin'er to expand the territory and solve many problems for Lin'er.
However, the woman who married Lin'er and became the queen of Lin'er, legend has it that after being poisoned, she was detoxified by the masters, and after marrying Lin'er for several years, she was able to have Yan JU with Lin'er
But just after the poor woman had Yan'er, Yan'er's maternal grandfather died in battle, and her grandmother soon followed Yan'er's maternal grandfather.
Empress Dowager Bai doesn't remember if Yan'er has a biological uncle or aunt. Just knew that the news of Yan'er's maternal grandfather's death was told by Lin'er that the people in the palace hid from Yan'er's queen mother, not to tell Huan'er's queen mother.
At first, Empress Dowager Bai thought that Lin'er was distressed Yan'er's mother by doing that. Thinking that Yan'er's mother is pregnant, it is inconvenient to know those sad things.
But many years later, Empress Dowager Bai learned the truth of the matter from her own nephew:
It turned out that Lin'er, who became the emperor, was afraid that after Yan'er's mother gave birth to the emperor's son, Yan'er's maternal grandfather would have more and greater power, which would affect the dominance of the Lu family. So he sent a certain henchman to the battlefield and took the life of Yan'er's maternal grandfather with a poisonous arrow.
Yan'er's mother died mysteriously within a few days after giving birth to Yan'er.
As for the cause of death of Gan Yan'er's mother, to this day, no one dares to mention it, let alone ask.
Even the Empress Dowager Bai herself didn't ask anyone how Yan'er's queen mother went.
Outside the bedroom of the Five Princes.
Empress Dowager Bai stood □ the door of the bedroom, raised her right hand, and gestured back and forth in mid-air several times, but finally failed to slap the closed bedroom door again.
At this time, Empress Dowager Bai thought of Yan'er's unjustly killed grandfather, Yan'er's miserable mother, and even more of Yan'er, who was far away in the north and was still living a hard life.
thought of the hard-working child, and Jiaojiao, who was locked up in the bedroom of the fifth prince and was giving needles to the fifth prince. Empress Dowager Bai suddenly felt that her heart was like a knife.
is the future crown prince, it doesn't have to be this Lu Yu born by Qin Zhaoyi.
After a pillar of incense, Qin Zhaoyi's cheers came from the bedroom: "Ying'er, Ying'er, you're awake!" ”
The Empress Dowager Bai, who was standing outside the door, as well as Lu Ying and others, also heard the emperor's voice: "I know that if I personally guard Ying'er and protect Ying'er, Ying'er will definitely be able to get through the difficulties and recover soon." You'er, you're really a good emperor for me. ”
When Lu Ying heard this, he was not jealous, but was still happy in his heart.
His father loved him and his fifth brother because his father loved their mother, Qin Zhaoyi. And one more thing, because both brothers are very competitive, much better than the other brothers.
Empress Dowager Bai didn't care about these things, because she only heard the voice of the emperor and Qin Zhaoyi, but she didn't hear what Bai Jiaojiao said, so she couldn't help but worry about Bai Jiaojiao in her heart. I'm afraid that the child doesn't speak because he has been wronged, and he can only endure it.
Thinking of the Bai father and son who were far away in the northern Xinjiang, Empress Dowager Bai had a trace of apology in her eyes. She thought in her heart, Jiaojiao of the Bai family had treated the five princes, and she had to go and talk to the emperor and Qin Zhaoyi, and next, how they should treat Jiaojiao better.
Just as the Empress Dowager Bai was pondering, the door of the bedroom of the fifth prince was opened, and the person who opened the door for the Empress Dowager Bai was the emperor himself.
Empress Dowager Bai raised her eyes to look at the emperor, with a kind smile on her face, and asked, "......"
The emperor smiled apologetically and said, "Queen Mother, it was the son's ministers who didn't think about it before, so you were worried about Ying'er." No, as soon as Ying'er woke up, Erchen immediately opened the door, please go in and accompany Ying'er JL."
Empress Dowager Bai pretended not to mind this matter, and said: "The emperor is serious, the mourning family just came to see Ying'er, as long as Ying'er recovers, the mourning family can also feel at ease." As for those inconsequential matters, the emperor did not need to mention them again. ”
It was rare for the emperor to hear who the Empress Dowager Bai was in front of, calling herself a "mourning family". When I heard it now, I felt even more sorry in my heart.
I also vaguely understood what Empress Dowager Bai meant when she said this, she was afraid that he and Qin Zhaoyi, after Jiaojiao healed Ying'er, would forget Jiaojiao's dedication to the royal family.
The emperor said softly: "Queen Mother, Ying'er can wake up and recover well, thanks to Yu'er's future princess, Jiaojiao." I have decided that as soon as Bai Aiqing returns from northern Xinjiang, I will marry Jiaojiao and Ju'er. ”
Hearing this, the Empress Dowager Bai neither said "good" nor said, "not good". Anyway, Jiaojiao's father hasn't returned yet, so she doesn't count this matter alone.
Bai Jiaojiao, who was standing in front of the bed, happened to hear what the emperor said to the Empress Dowager Bai. When she heard this, she inevitably felt angry in her heart.
She kindly treated the emperor's son Lu Ying, but who would have thought that the emperor and Qin Zhaoyi would make it difficult for her in every possible way at a critical time. didn't talk about the ideology and feudalism, and supervised her throughout the whole process, as if he was afraid that something would happen to her.
They all treated her like this, and wanted her to marry their son, Lu Jue. What about beauty?
She didn't get married.
Just as Bai Jiaojiao was thinking about this, the words of the Empress Dowager Bai came to her ears: "Heh, that is." Although Jiaojiao is young, Jiaojiao is still the descendant of a famous doctor. When her mother was alive, she could have given needles to people with her eyes closed when she was so young. Jiaojiao has such superb medical skills, firstly because she is smart, and secondly because she is eager to learn......"
When Bai Jiaojiao heard this, she had mixed feelings in her heart. The skill she has has has nothing to do with her parents in this life, but that she had such a good skill in her previous life.
However, when Empress Dowager Bai said this, she indirectly helped her explain why she had such good skills.
The answer given by the Empress Dowager Bai doesn't sound like a sense of disobedience. I persuaded myself in my heart, forget it, just assume that the truth of the facts is like this. In this way, you don't have to think about what reasons to explain to others.
Qin Zhaoyi's words came quickly: "Yes, Queen Mother, our family's Jiaojiao is really a miracle doctor." ”
Bai Jiaojiao felt in her heart that Qin Zhaoyi was a little hypocritical. When I gave her a problem before, I only knew what to say about blindfolding her and asking her to prick needles for the fifth prince.
But she never considered from her point of view, if she was blindfolded, she couldn't prick the needle for the fifth prince, and what happened, how bad luck she and her family would follow.
At this moment, Qin Zhaoyi saw that she had cured the illness of the fifth prince, and only then did she say in front of the Empress Dowager Bai that she was a miracle doctor, or something.
Bai Jiaojiao wanted to say a word to Qin Zhaoyi: "Since you think I am a miracle doctor, then give me some practical benefits, don't think about letting me marry your son Lu in the future."
Bai Jiaojiao saw Qin Zhaoyi supporting the Empress Dowager Bai, came to Lu Ying's bed, moved a Taishi chair, and sat for the Empress Dowager Bai.
Qin Zhaoyi looked at Lu Ying, who was drinking the decoction, with a look of joy on her face, and told the Empress Dowager Bai: "Queen Mother, you see, after Jiaojiao pricked her fifth brother with a needle to discharge the poisonous blood, her fifth brother can take the medicine. ”
"It's good that Ying'er recovers, it's good if she recovers." Empress Dowager Bai sat in front of the bed, looked at Lu Ying, who was sitting on the bed I, holding a bowl of medicine, her eyes showed a touch of joy, and said: "In the past few days, Ying'er has suffered and lost a lot of weight, so I have to make up for my body." ”
"That's, that's." When Qin Zhaoyi heard this, she felt very heartache for her Ying'er, only to see that the Empress Dowager Bai cared so much about Ying'er's body, and this Ying'er was healed by the Bai family's Jiaojiao, and she was busy praising Bai Jiaojiao in front of the Empress Dowager Bai and said: "It's all thanks to Jiaojiao, who helped our family Ying'er heal, and Ying'er can recover so well." Queen Mother, you see, Ying'er's face is bloody, her complexion has become better than before, and her whole person has become more energetic......"
