Chapter 120: Piercing the Heart (I)

Yo he! This princess Chonghua is still poking at Queen Chen's heart every sentence!

Just now, he refused to call himself the "queen mother" in front of everyone, and now he blatantly mentioned his mother in the cold palace to the queen mother. I don't know if it was taught by the abolition of the queen, or if the little princess spontaneously felt it.

Everyone's complexion was more wonderful than Fang Cai, but the Empress Dowager Weng didn't care much, her first impression of Princess Chonghua was very good, and she didn't think she was intentional, but she felt that she was innocent and immature and showed her true feelings, so she said: "It's a filial child, and I never forget my mother." ”

Who knew that Princess Chonghua's next sentence was even more surprising: "Can the granddaughter move back to Bixiao Palace to live with her mother?" ”

The Empress Dowager was stunned and asked, "Don't you like where you live now?" Why go back? Isn't it good here? ”

"It's very nice here, there is everything, there are nice dresses, there are also delicious snacks, not like in the cold palace...... However, these are not as good as my mother-in-law, if so, can the imperial grandmother intercede with her father and let her granddaughter go back to the cold palace to live with her mother? Mother will be lonely alone......" she said, tears burst from her eyes, and the hearts of those who watched were sour.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but sigh, with the emperor's current attitude towards Princess Chonghua, if she went back to the cold palace to live, wouldn't the emperor occasionally go to the cold palace? Is the cold palace still a cold palace?

Empress Dowager Weng didn't pay attention to the faces of others, and simply picked up Princess Chonghua from the small pestle and put it in her arms, "Good boy, you are the princess of Dajing, how can you live in the cold palace, but the imperial grandmother must tell your father and let you go back to see your mother occasionally, okay?" ”

Empress Dowager Weng actually said the words "princess" herself!

Before the emperor gave the title to the sixteenth princess, everyone speculated that this was a recognition of her identity as a concubine, but the emperor has never made a clear statement, so it is not implemented, but as soon as the Empress Dowager Weng opened her mouth at this time, it was equivalent to clarifying her status in the palace, above the other princesses! That's all with the older her Princess Hanyuan.

Empress Chen almost crushed her silver teeth, this little goblin!

Originally, her purpose in mentioning Princess Chonghua was to explain that the emperor should not have too much contact with a sinner woman, so that the queen mother could prevent the possibility of the emperor from dealing with the abolition, so as not to make waves in the harem, but who knew that the queen mother felt pity for Princess Chonghua, and personally identified her as the princess of Dajing!

When Princess Chonghua heard the Queen Mother say this, she didn't cry endlessly, wiped away her tears, sobbed and nodded, "Xiao'er knows ......"

This well-behaved appearance at the mercy of others made Empress Dowager Weng feel a little more distressed, she turned to Empress Chen and advised: "Chonghua is still young, and he needs to be taken care of everywhere, whether there is a mother by his side, you have to take care of her more." ”

Empress Chen stood up respectfully, bowed her head and responded "yes", but her heart was like a storm and could not be at peace.

In terms of background, she can't compare to Liu Zhaoyi, even compared with the previous Queen Chunrong, she can't compare to the feelings that people have been with the emperor for many years, she was promoted from Concubine Chen to Queen Chen, because the Chen family has a merit in exposing the traitor, and it is not a credit worth showing off, the Empress Dowager Weng's perception of the Chen family is not good, and she has little closeness to her, even not as good as Liu Zhaoyi before, even the emperor, treats her like a guest, and the days of coming to Zhengyang Palace have always been the two fixed days every month. Fortunately, her stomach was angry, even in this case, she still gave birth to two daughters and a son, with the sixth prince Li Qi, the emperor finally had a little more warmth for her, and the queen mother also had a little smile on her, and she finally didn't have to be so trembling in this Da'an Palace.

But how many years have passed? There was a daughter in the cold palace! Empress Dowager Weng also raised Li Xiao'er in front of all the concubines, which was simply slapping her in the face!

But she can only treat Li Xiao'er well, because as long as she exists for a day, even if she is in the cold palace, her daughter will be under everyone's attention. If he is half bad for Li Xiao'er, it is equivalent to falling in the eyes of everyone.

She is a queen, courteous and dignified, virtuous and virtuous, how can she ruin her reputation? She suddenly had a strange feeling, at that time, Liu Zhaoyi was accused of murdering Queen Chunrong and was beaten into the cold palace, was it also such a sense of powerlessness?

"Xiao'er will stay for dinner today, whatever you want to eat, the imperial grandmother will ask someone to cook it for you."

Empress Dowager Weng has been holding Princess Chonghua and never letting go, reaching out and feeding her a piece of snowflake cake, everyone is secretly surprised, and secretly wonders what kind of attitude they should treat Princess Chonghua in the future, but they don't know that Empress Dowager Weng is actually remembering her little daughter Princess Rou'an in her heart.

However, Qing Ruxu watched coldly, but she didn't think that Empress Dowager Weng was a spur of the moment, and she could crawl in the harem and get to her current status, would she be an emotional person? She had to think that this was what the emperor meant, or that the queen mother and the emperor both thought that Princess Chonghua should not be wronged, and they had planned it a long time ago, but the queen mother triggered an emotion in her heart today and treated Princess Chonghua more and more.

But why is that?

Qing Ruxu was a little puzzled, shouldn't it be unforgivable to murder Queen Chunrong after the abolition?

But why did the emperor "stray" into the cold palace and still love her daughter after she was abandoned? Is it just because Empress Chunrong has passed away for many years that the emperor has forgotten the mistakes of the abolition?

Qingru secretly denied that the emperor was a wise and decisive person, and would never risk the world's disapproval to touch a sinner, even if he liked Princess Chonghua again, he would take care of it more in private, and he would never give the title and give the title with great fanfare.

But the emperor did this, what does it mean?

Qing Ruxu smoothed out his speculation in his mind and came up with two new conjectures.

The first is that someone did murder Queen Chunrong back then, and blamed the queen for the abolition, so that the emperor could do something to the Liu family. The emperor knew that things were different, but after weighing the pros and cons, he chose to deal with the Liu family and gave up the abolition. Many years have passed, and he occasionally saw the abolition, and he felt guilty and pity for her, so he made up for Princess Chonghua.

The second type, the abolition of the queen to murder Queen Chunrong, the evidence is conclusive, the emperor does not know the truth of the matter, Liu Zhaoyi into the cold palace, and vigorously suppressed the Liu family, many years have passed, Liu Zhaoyi tried his best to lead the emperor to the cold palace, like he stated the truth, the emperor believed her words, but for some reasons could not make the decision for her.

Qing Ruxu actually prefers the second type in her heart, because if it is the first type, the emperor can take more care of the mother and son in the cold palace in private as she thinks. Therefore, she was almost certain that the emperor had realized the truth about the murder of Empress Chunrong four years ago.

However, he didn't intend to expose this matter, otherwise, the cloaked man would not have found Qing Ruxu's head and asked her to find out the real culprit behind the scenes on behalf of the deposed queen.

Qing Ruxu can think of the reason for the emperor's move.

Whether it is the vassals of the dynasty or the concubines of the harem, most of them are associated with the family court, and they affect the whole body. No matter who the real culprit is behind the scenes, it should not be easily touched. What's more, the murderer who dared to murder the queen back then must have a lot of intentions, and the power of today is definitely better than that of the past. Even if the emperor knew who the murderer was, he just knew it in his heart, took strict precautions, and would not easily bring up the old matter, unless he wanted to completely eradicate this force.

It is obviously unwise to set off a storm in the DPRK and China for the sake of a case that has no political purpose.

At least, not for the time being.

Qing Ruxu couldn't help but guess, would the emperor be like her, thinking that the murderer was the Chen family? If Empress Chen is really behind the scenes, will the emperor depose another queen for the sake of one queen again?

And what is the purpose of his fanfare for Princess Chonghua now? Is it to make people aware of his intentions so that they can do it "for him"?

After all, as an emperor, there are some things that you can't do with your own hands, but you can suggest others to do it.

For example, Jiang Rin's Imperial City Division is a sharp knife in the hands of Emperor Zhaoren, where it needs to be pierced. Qing Ruxu decided to go back and ask Jiang Rin if Emperor Zhaoren had signaled him to investigate what happened after the abolition. She was thinking about it, when she was suddenly pulled by the fourteen princesses beside her, she quickly came back to her senses and looked at everyone.

The fourteenth princess reminded in a whisper: "The Queen Mother called you!" ”

Qing Ruxu hurriedly saluted when she heard this: "The courtiers are here, what does the Queen Mother command?" ”

Empress Dowager Weng looked at her with a pleasant face and said, "I heard that your body is better?" I don't know what kind of panacea was used, but the mourning family looked at you, and her complexion was much better than that of ordinary people. ”

Qing Ruxu said cautiously: "Where is the courtier's elixir, but she was lucky to meet the cold doctor, she saw the crux of the courtier's daughter's illness, and prescribed the right medicine, she can naturally be cured, plus the cold doctor lives in the courtier's house, and often regulates the body of the courtier, and the complexion is better." ”

Fortunately, Leng Lingyu did appear in the capital at the joint where she had detoxified, and no one would doubt it if she said so.

Empress Dowager Weng nodded and said with a smile: "I heard that this cold divine doctor is only two years old, so young, he has such ability, and he is worthy of being a disciple of the Holy Hand Zhang Xian." ”

Concubine Hui glanced at Empress Chen's face, and said with a smile on the side: "It turns out that Leng Shen cured Miss Qing's illness, if it weren't for what I heard today, the concubine would really think that Master Zhiren's approval had played a role." ”

The topic was brought up again, and everyone was interested, and today's big drama is really one after another......

Qing Ruxu's gaze moved to Concubine Hui's face and paused, wondering why she suddenly bowed down to the queen.

Although Concubine Hui was as cunning as a fox before, she did not clearly stand by the queen's side to form an alliance with her, and the queen was happy to see her and Concubine Chen as opponents of each other, why did the situation suddenly change?

However, there was not much time to think about it at this time, and everyone's eyes fell on her, waiting for her to answer!
