"That'...... That ......" Chunlan didn't know what to do.

"Chunlan, you can help me think of a way to send this jade pendant to the emperor." Tang Jingchen said and took out a jade pendant from his arms and put it in Chunlan's hand.

"This was given to me by the emperor when I was first pregnant with Xinyun in the past, saying that I could go to disasters and keep safe, maybe he could look at this, don't let Xinyun marry far away."

At that time, Tang Jingchen was being favored, and it was the first time she was pregnant, the emperor was very happy to attach importance to it, and specially rewarded this jade pendant, she had carried it with her all these years, and she didn't expect it to come in handy this time.

Chunlan's expression changed, and finally said, "Slave and maid, try it." ”

"You can't try, you have to do it." Tang Jingchen said in a deep voice: "Xinyun's future depends on you. ”

Chunlan nodded heavily, "Rest assured, the slave will definitely live up to her mission." ”

After speaking, she turned around and left, and the mother-in-law who guarded the cold palace immediately locked the door, and Tang Jingchen fell to the ground in a dejected manner, and a tear fell into the snow.

Cining Palace.

The emperor's face was cold, and he paced around the room with his hands down, and said in a deep voice for a long time: "Zhungeer deceives people too much, and dares to ask to marry Xinyun, Huang Eniang, how can you agree?" ”

The Queen Mother sat upright, picked up the tea bowl in front of her, took a sip slowly, and pressed the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, "What if the mourning family doesn't agree, do you want to start a war with Jungar?" If the emperor has already made up his mind, he will not want to marry. ”

After speaking, she sneered, "It's just that the first queen is going to be uneasy underground, if her daughter can marry, other people's daughters can't be married, is the eldest daughter not as noble as the concubine?" ”

The emperor couldn't tell the difference, "Huang Eniang, it's not who is noble and who is not, but the heart is too small, and I am afraid that it will be inappropriate to forcibly marry in the past, and I can't allow another daughter to die in a foreign country." ”

The Queen Mother's eyes flashed with a fierce color, "If she can't survive and die, it will be her life." ”

She continued: "Emperor, you are too childlike, Tang Jingchen does not abide by the woman's way of filthy palace, but is just abolished into the cold palace, it is reasonable to give three feet of white silk to death, even her family will be punished, and now marry her daughter, so as not to ruin her life, and can also alleviate some sins for her." ”

"This matter is so decided, the mourning family has asked Duolun to prepare a dowry for Xinyun, she is a princess of a genuine brand, and the dowry is twice as rich as Xinyao, which is worthy of her."

The Queen Mother waved her hand, "The mourning family is tired, the emperor, you kneel down." ”

After speaking, she asked Mama Zhao Lan to carry her back to the dormitory, and the emperor stood silently in the main hall of Cining Palace, looking very helpless.

The queen mother is his biological mother, and the dynasty rules the world with filial piety, and he can't disobey his mother, so he can only persuade her to take back her fate.

But looking at the queen mother's meaning, she was very resolute.

Mama Zhao Lan waited for the Queen Mother to rest, and when she came out to see that the emperor hadn't left yet, she couldn't help but be stunned, "Why is the emperor still here, you also know the habits of the Queen Mother, and you have to sleep for an hour, let alone this sleep." ”

The emperor's face was gloomy, "Why did the emperor suddenly change her mind?" ”

The Queen Mother has never liked King Dejun, although the daughter of King Dejun is also her granddaughter in name, she has never seen it, and she will not choose someone else because she is reluctant.

Mama Zhao Lan didn't answer, but said: "The Queen Mother is very quiet...... Ah no, it's the Tangshu people, you spoil the Tangshu people and snub the queen, her old man is already very dissatisfied, but the Tangshu people gave birth to a stillborn baby, and her old man feels even more ominous. ”

"The Queen Mother said at the time that she burned the stillborn baby and punished the Tangshu people, but you refused to do so, and the Queen Mother became more and more angry."

Looking at the emperor's face, Mama Zhao Lan continued: "There is a saying, the old slave wants to persuade the emperor, and to collect favors in one body is to collect grievances in one, and the queen is still the queen mother's family, how can the queen mother watch her being left out in the cold?" ”

"At first, it was decided that Princess Xinyao wanted to take the opportunity to rectify the King of Dejun, but the King of Dejun accepted it without saying a word, and the Queen Mother inevitably felt bored.

Although Mama Zhao Lan said it vaguely, the emperor had already heard it, and this matter had nothing to do with Duolun.

He couldn't help but think of Tang Jingchen's fornication with the guards.

At that time, it seemed that the evidence was conclusive, the human and material evidence was perfect, Tang Jingchen was simply indisputable, and death was the only ending.

However, although he was angry, the emperor was never willing to execute Tang Jingchen, and when he calmed down afterwards, he felt that this matter was quite strange.

All the evidence is so simple that it seems that someone has done it in front of him.

Just as they were about to send someone to investigate secretly, the envoys of Dzungar came to make a big fuss, accusing the Celestial Empire of deceiving them and treating the daughter of a county king as a princess.

At the same time, he also asked to marry Princess Xinyun, the emperor simply didn't know where he got the news, King Dejun would not reveal this, he didn't dare, and other courtiers wouldn't.

The emperor has already sent someone to check, since the envoys of Zhungeer came to Kyoto, except in the post house, they only saw Empress Dolun, or to discuss the dowry, so did Duolun reveal it?

Quite possibly. The Emperor clenched his fists.

He was reluctant to marry Xinyun, mainly because she was too young and not suitable at all, and he thought that this matter would not be difficult to solve, as long as more dowry was allowed to Jungar, they would die down.

Who knew that there was a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the Queen Mother agreed, and directly issued an edict.

The emperor looked at Mama Zhao Lan eagerly, "Mama, you are an old man in the palace, and you have always served by the emperor's side, you say, is there any room for turning around in this matter?" ”

Mama Zhao Lan thought for a while, "Your Majesty, the old slave can't think of it, the Queen Mother doesn't like the Tangshu people, she dislikes her for not being able to give birth to a son, and she is not close to the two princesses, and the decree has been made, if the Queen Mother changes her words, won't she slap herself in the face?" ”

The difficulty in this matter is here, the designated Xin Yao at that time, regardless of the Empress Dowager Emperor, did not make a formal decree, but planned to let Duolun adopt her for a period of time, learn the palace rules and then announce it to the world.

Now she has made a decree, which is itself a corner of the nail and cut off the possibility of change.

Reasoning, all the princes and princesses in the palace get married, and the queen mother has the right to inquire and even have the right to make decisions, so at this point, the emperor can't say anything.

He could only hope for the courtiers.

The next morning, the emperor took this matter out for discussion, and at this time, almost everyone knew that Duke Xinyun was going to marry Prince Jungar.

"I don't think it's appropriate, Xinyun is too young to marry."

An old minister said: "The marriage between the two countries has always attached importance to identity, it doesn't matter if the princess is young, it doesn't matter if the princess is young, marry a few more palace maids of the right age, first serve the prince for the princess, and then officially round the house when the princess is older." ”

The rest of the ministers chimed in.
