Chapter Ninety-Five: Cao Hanjie's New Mission
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, King Xiao replaced the previous dynasty, while Chu Yunning and a group of imperial doctors studied the antidote.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, Emperor Mingwen did not show up for several days, and news of Emperor Mingwen's serious illness began to flow out of the palace.
"Chushang Palace, the queen mother and the flawed concubine mother came to visit." Grandpa Mo is in a hurry, these two masters are here together, but it's not easy to fool.
Especially the queen, who dragged her sick body, Gonggong Mo had already been slapped by the queen at the door just now, so he had to come in to report on the excuse before he got out.
Chu Yunning frowned, the Queen Mother hadn't rested for several days, she had just returned to Cihe Palace to take medicine to rest, and she couldn't come back as fast as possible.
"Don't stop the palace, the palace must come to see what's wrong with the emperor!" The queen's voice lingered outside the door, and if she didn't come in, she would definitely not give up.
Chu Yunning took a deep breath, could only bite the bullet, opened the door and stood on the threshold, taking a step and saluting the queen.
"Queen Mother Jin An, Concubine Niang Niang An."
"Smack!" The palace queen raised her hand high, and without hesitation, she aimed at Chu Yunning's little face and slapped it hard.
The force of this slap was not light, and it directly swollen Chu Yunning's face, his ears were buzzing, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
"Presumptuous, this palace is the mother of a country, if you want to meet the emperor, which is easy for you to obstruct, and those who know each other are not quick to get out of the way!" The palace queen was furious.
Remember the URL
Chu Yunning touched the corner of his mouth, and it hurt hotly.
"Chu Shang Palace, you better get out of the way, this palace is also worried about the emperor, after all, I haven't seen the emperor for several days, and this palace heard that the emperor is sick again, and I am very anxious." The attitude of the flawed concubine is gentle, but it is also an attitude that must be seen.
"The emperor has an order, no outsiders are seen." Father-in-law Mo walked out, straightened his waist and said in a deep voice.
Chu Yunning moved away and pointed to the inside: "The two ladies can see each other if they want, but don't blame me for not reminding me, the emperor is angry, if you pursue it......"
The palace queen was skeptical, but the concubine took two steps back, had already dispelled her mind to see the emperor, and smiled: "Since the emperor is fine, the palace is relieved." ”
Seeing that the situation was wrong, the concubine turned her head and left, for fear of being contaminated with a little responsibility, and in the end she would be disgusted by the emperor, but the queen of the palace scolded angrily.
"I haven't seen the emperor in this palace for a long time, come and ask for peace and leave." The palace queen raised her feet and crossed the threshold, so frightened that Gong Mo's heart was about to rise to his throat.
"Tsk!" Chu Yunning shook his head and sighed.
The palace queen turned her head sideways and looked at Chu Yunning unhappily: "What is the yin and yang weirdness of Chu Shang Palace?" ”
"The minister just rushed to mourn for the queen, no wonder the emperor didn't like the queen and took away the phoenix seal." Chu Yunning smiled mockingly: "The queen mother has repeatedly disobeyed the emperor's wishes and dragged her sick body to cause chaos, so it's strange that the emperor can like you." ”
"Chu Yunning!" The palace queen had itchy teeth, she took medicine before coming out and gritted her teeth before coming to the political palace, her head still hurt badly, if it wasn't for the palace maid to help her, she would have been unstable for a long time.
Chu Yunning looked at the palace queen without scruples and sneered: "Rumors are spreading in the harem, who would have thought that the first one who couldn't sit still was actually the queen's mother, sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing to care too much, who knows if it has ulterior motives." ”
"Chu Yunning, what nonsense are you talking about!" The palace queen was irrational by Chu Yunning, withdrew her feet, walked towards Chu Yunning, raised her hand and wanted to fight again.
After suffering a loss, Chu Yunning directly grabbed the hand of the palace queen, and unceremoniously slapped the palace maid beside the palace queen with a backhand.
"Idiot, the queen who doesn't serve well in the palace, let the queen come to Hu, how did you do it!"
Chu Yunning's momentum burst out, and he actually shocked the queen for a while, and the little palace maid was beaten and covered her face and looked at the queen, looking aggrieved.
"Chu Yunning, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, you actually dare to beat the people around the palace, you have eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall!"
The palace queen withdrew her arm from Chu Yunning's hand, and stared at her with a pair of phoenix eyes, eager to cut the other party with a thousand knives before she could relieve her anger.
"If the queen is not convinced, you can go to the emperor to make the decision." Chu Yunning didn't put the palace queen in his eyes at all, but instead instigated the palace queen: "The phoenix seal is in my hands, if the queen has this ability, take it back!" ”
After speaking, no matter what the queen's expression was, Chu Yunning walked away, leaving the queen angry and scolded in place.
Gonggong Mo on the side was almost frightened to death by Chu Yunning, and swallowed his throat nervously, really worried that the queen would rush in to find the emperor regardless of it.
Fortunately, the queen had no mind to go to the emperor, and before leaving, she didn't forget to stare at Gonggong Mo closely: "Bring a word to the emperor for the palace, and pay attention to rest when the state affairs are busy." ”
"Don't worry, the slave will definitely speak for you."
Seeing the queen brushing his sleeves away, Gonggong Mo breathed a sigh of relief fiercely, and sat directly on the ground, which was really thrilling.
In the afternoon, Chu Yunning asked the Internal Affairs Office to send a few green cards, and picked a timid one to serve.
"Chu Yunning, you are crazy, this king is just replacing the royal brother, how can you let the show girl serve this king?"
When King Xiao was reviewing the folds, the little eunuch came to report that he wanted to pamper the concubine in the evening, King Xiao asked who arranged it, and learned that Chu Yunning did it, and King Xiao immediately couldn't sit still.
Chu Yunning looked at the angry King Xiao, and couldn't laugh or cry a little: "I am also hiding my eyes and ears by doing this, after all, the emperor often recruits concubines to sleep during this time, if it is a long time and no one is recruited, I am worried that I will be suspected." ”
"Heh, you know the imperial brother." King Xiao sneered: "No wonder the imperial brother reuses you, why didn't I find that you are delicate and thoughtful before." ”
She doesn't expect Xiao Wang to be a normal person now, she will go astray while chatting, and talk sarcastically about you from time to time, if she doesn't have a strong psychological quality, she will definitely be angry to death.
"There is no way, in order to protect yourself, you can only endure the humiliation and find a suitable backer, otherwise you won't know if you are killed." Chu Yunning said.
King Xiao hummed: "Sharp teeth and sharp mouth, Chu Yunning, no matter what you say, this king can't do the matter of pampering the concubine!" ”
"Lord Wang, when did I let you spoil the concubine, you may not need to be pampered if you summon someone." Chu Yunning had an expression of thinking too much.
After Xiao Wang reacted, his face was hot and a little unnatural.
"The prince only needs to focus on the previous dynasty, and the affairs of the harem will be handled by me." Chu Yunning said, for fear that King Xiao would misunderstand again, so he explained it thoroughly.
King Xiao said: "No wonder you don't look down on Xiao Wangfu, you have so much power in the harem that even the queen has to retreat, everyone has to look at your face, you are used to calling the wind and rain in the harem, what is the little Xiao Wangfu." ”
Too lazy to hear King Xiao mention these nonsense, Chu Yunning said again: "Lord Wang, please remember your identity at all times." ”
"What identity, this king is now handling the government affairs in place of the royal brother, and you are the princess of this king, you are now in charge of the harem, and the two of us will cooperate in the palace......"
After King Xiao finished speaking, Chu Yunning's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly interrupted: "Please be cautious if such a disrespectful word is spoken, if it is spread, this word will be evidence of rebellion." ”
At the mention of the word rebellion, King Xiao's face also changed, he glanced at Chu Yunning with a gloomy expression, and left the Qingluan Hall without saying more.
Although the person left, Chu Yunning was uneasy, and even Bixiu heard that something was wrong, and quietly stepped forward: "Miss, shouldn't the prince have thoughts that he shouldn't have?" ”
"This ......" is hard to say, she can't fathom King Xiao's thoughts, if she is in a hurry, she can do anything.
Human nature is the most unbearable temptation, after all, King Xiao has tasted the taste of power, if Emperor Mingwen really has something, there is no little prince in the palace, there is no successor to Emperor Mingwen, and King Xiao is the biological son of the Queen Mother, when it really comes to that time, the Queen Mother will definitely fully support King Xiao.
Chu Yunning's fingertips trembled slightly.
"Miss, can the emperor's illness really get better?" Bixiu asked.
Emperor Mingwen's condition is a little complicated, sometimes good and sometimes bad, let go of the blood of the ten fingers, but it can be alleviated.
Not much has changed substantially.
After practicing medicine for many years, it was the first time she had encountered such a tricky poison.
……
The back door of the council hall was quietly opened, and a small figure crept in, tiptoeing on the dragon bed.
Skillfully took out a pill from his arms and stuffed it into Emperor Mingwen's mouth, and after a while, Emperor Mingwen opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, and he couldn't see that he was still sick at all.
"Uncle Huang, when will you wake up?" Beibei muttered quietly, if it weren't for the people of Qingluan Hall who were busy, maybe he would have been discovered, it was too thrilling.
Emperor Mingwen's palm rubbed Beibei's jet-black hair; "Then do you still want to be with your mother for the rest of your life?"
"Of course!" Beibei nodded heavily,
"It's not that everything will be fruitful for others, sometimes you need to exchange for equal value, or rely on your own ability to do it, you know?"
These words are a bit profound, Beibei thought for a while before digesting this sentence, and nodded obediently: "Can I really be with my mother all the time in the future?" ”
"Hmm!"
Beibei gritted his teeth, in order to be able to be with his mother, take risks, it's better than being separated from his mother.
"Uncle Huang, you have lost a lot of weight." Beibei touched Emperor Mingwen's emaciated face, put his little head on Emperor Mingwen's shoulder, yawned sleepily, and muttered in a low voice: "I still don't understand some of the lessons that the master said, the master is too strict, and he punished me for playing the board." ”
Emperor Mingwen smiled, and supported his body with one hand: "Study hard, no one can help you." ”
"Uncle Huang, when will you get better?"
"Uncle Huang."
Beibei stayed with Emperor Mingwen for half an hour, and Emperor Mingwen suddenly asked: "Beibei, if one day King Xiao sits in the position of the emperor's uncle and replaces the emperor's uncle, and your mother and King Xiao are reconciled again, will you be happy?" ”
Beibei tilted his head and asked, "What about Uncle Huang?" ”
"Uncle Huang will go to a far, far away place." Emperor Mingwen asked with a smile, as if he was saying something very easy.
When Beibei heard this, he hugged Emperor Mingwen's neck tightly: "If King Xiao becomes the emperor, Beibei will not be happy, my mother will not be happy, and the people of the world will not be happy." ”
"Why?" Emperor Mingwen was very surprised that Beibei could say this, Beibei thought for a moment before saying: "King Xiao is not a virtuous monarch, it is the people who suffer as an emperor, my mother often says that King Xiao has been spoiled since he was a child, and what he can't get is the best, once he gets his hands, he will not cherish it, his personality is irritable and irritable, and it is easy to be taken advantage of." ”
These words were even more unexpected, and Emperor Mingwen asked again: "Does your mother really say that?" ”
"That's right."
Looking at Beibei's sincere and innocent eyes, Emperor Mingwen smiled again and asked, "Uncle Huang believes what you say, so your mother usually talks about Uncle Huang?" ”
"My mother said that the emperor's uncle died to save face, he was a bright monarch, and he lived a very hard life, and my mother also said that the emperor was not a human worker, and the surface scenery was actually very hard, and there was no freedom at all."
Emperor Mingwen looked at Beibei and said these words without hesitation, the corners of his mouth raised a wry smile, these words definitely seemed to be said by Chu Yunning.
"My mother also said that there is no difference between being an emperor and being in prison, there is no opportunity to read the great mountains and rivers, since ancient times, there is no longevity when you are an emperor, virtuous monarchs are exhausted to death, and the end of a faint monarch is to be destroyed."
Beibei blinked his smart eyes and looked directly at Emperor Mingwen, which made Emperor Mingwen's face sink: "Beibei, your mother ......"
Emperor Mingwen suddenly didn't know how to refute, is it really good to be an emperor?
With unshirkable responsibilities and burdens on his shoulders, how many pairs of eyes are staring at him, everyone's hopes are pinned on him, the people are happy to live in peace, and there is no enemy to invade the border passes, this is his greatest wish.
"Uncle Huang." Beibei looked at Emperor Mingwen suspiciously.
Emperor Mingwen cleared his throat, he didn't expect Chu Yunning to reject the position of emperor so much in private.
"Your mother hasn't read any books, she doesn't understand the hardships of the emperor here, although being an emperor is hard, but it can make more people happy, and there is nothing bad about it." Emperor Mingwen appeased Beibei, but he never said that Chu Yunning was not.
After all, that's someone's mother.
I have to say that Chu Yunning's thoughts impressed Emperor Mingwen, and few women can have such an awareness.
Who doesn't climb forward desperately for power, and do everything for their own selfishness.
"Beibei, sometimes you can't help yourself, if you don't have the right, you can only be bullied." Emperor Mingwen glanced at the time and touched Beibei's head: "In short, what your mother said is not wrong, people have their own ambitions and different aspirations, okay, go back quickly, don't let people find out." ”
"Good!" Beibei touched his arms, took out a pill and handed it to Emperor Mingwen, who took it without hesitation, and gradually fell asleep again.
In order not to make people suspicious, Beibei also deliberately adjusted the pulse of Emperor Mingwen exactly the same as before he came.
