Chapter 127: Liu E's Last Wish
Zhao Zhen is very satisfied, Wenchen is very satisfied, and Zhao Yunrang is also very satisfied.
He didn't want to get directly involved in this kind of court dispute, even with his IQ, this kind of court battle was too complicated.
Especially when there are no internal and external troubles, it is simply a hellish difficulty of the mind game.
Originally, Zhao Yunrang came to this world, and he did have a very grand ideal, a cross-era ideal.
This ideal, after the war, was very diluted.
Because he is deeply aware that he is thinking too simply.
Tens of thousands of lives have been filled into such a pit, but they are only fighting for some land.
And this kind of war on the border is often in the form of tug-of-war.
That is, you beat me and I beat you, and in the end nothing of value was formed, but barely supported their own living space.
But there are many senseless lives and senseless sacrifices.
In this epic magnificence, the family and the country are simply a battle of snails and horns from a higher perspective.
Although standing on the position of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Yunrang was never willing to let the iron hooves of any nation trample on the land of the Great Song Dynasty.
But Zhao Yunrang is a little tired of such a war.
Not to mention, these civil and military disputes in the court, the struggle between imperial power and vassals, and even the dispute between the emperor and the queen mother.
was planning to hide in the city, just in this Biluo Villa, Tsing Yi Lou died of old age, and a news suddenly came from the palace that the Queen Mother recruited him into the palace.
Zhao Yunrang was a little stunned, this kind of time is a sensitive period.
He has just been named the Duke of Anyang, and at this time, the Queen Mother summoned him, and he was not afraid that Zhao Zhen would have any thoughts?
can't resist the order and disobey it, Zhao Yun let him pack up and enter the palace.
As a result, when I entered the palace, I found that Zhao Zhen was actually there, and a group of imperial doctors were surrounded there.
The imperial doctor's face was very solemn, is this Liu E no longer good?
Liu E didn't use this method less before, but this time it really didn't work.
Liu E quickly entered a stage of aging, and now she is about to enter a dying state.
On the occasion of Liu E's death, Zhao Zhen also asked himself painfully what other wishes did this mother have?
As a result, Liu E said that she wanted to see Zhao Yunrang.
Everyone was puzzled, what do you want to explain at this time?
You must know that Liu E and Zhao Yunrang actually have no blood relationship, and they are not like Zhao Zhen, at least they are under their knees.
Of course, Zhao Zhen didn't know this.
Zhao Yunrang walked to the bed, and Zhao Zhen also stood aside.
Liu E didn't speak, her eyes looked at Zhao Zhen.
An old palace maid next to her looked at Zhao Zhen: "The queen mother's meaning is to ask Your Majesty to avoid it first." โ
Zhao Zhen was stunned, and let his son avoid it, although there are usually disputes with the queen mother's power, and the relationship is a little estranged, but it won't come to this point?
However, Zhao Zhen was still obedient, so he stepped aside with great reluctance.
Zhao Yunrang was also very embarrassed, could it be that this Empress Dowager Liu wanted to pit herself when she was dying?
Not to mention anything else, Zhao Zhen at least has an opinion about himself, his own son is not around, and his so-called nephew is going to stand aside and listen, what is this?
It has been the truth since ancient times!
Liu E looked a little struggling, and even her voice was very weak, but her eyes were extremely firm.
Zhao Yunrang cautiously leaned on the head of the bed: "Queen Mother, please give me something." โ
Empress Dowager Liu looked at it and grabbed Zhao Yunrang's hand: "I can't do it-"
"Queen Mother, don't say that, you will live a long life."
Liu E suddenly laughed: "Youโthis can be regarded as comforting meโmy own body, I know." โ
Zhao Yunrang: "......"
"I have something to ask you - at the beginning, when Concubine Li died, you were by your side, did she leave any kind of words?"
Zhao Yunrang shook his head: "No, if you really want to, can I not talk back to you at that time?" โ
Liu E nodded: "Then did you tell the emperor?" โ
Zhao Yunrang raised his right hand: "I swear, absolutely not, I didn't talk to anyone about it." โ
Liu E nodded: "Then you can talk to him now." โ
Is this - can it really be said?
Zhao Yunrang could see that Liu E was going to leave a will, and he asked for this little bit of thought.
When I snatched the child from someone else's hands and raised my own son, I guess I feel a little sorry for people.
Especially now, he is about to die, so Zhao Zhen will definitely know about this, and his family will also leave a way back.
However, Zhao Zhen should not be such an ungrateful person, and most importantly, Empress Dowager Liu is indeed good to Concubine Li.
To be honest, Empress Dowager Liu's mind is quite broad.
In history, she and Wu Zetian are as famous as Empress Lu, but their reputation is much better than those two.
"Are you sure you can say that? Then I'll say. Do you think it's appropriate to say it now, or is it appropriate to wait until you die? โ
"Say it now, I'm going to look at you and Zhao Zhen."
"Okay," Zhao Yunrang stiffened, this job is not easy to do.
Well, it's not your own mother who is lying here, your real mother passed away a while ago, and you haven't even seen your last face.
How do you say this, how do you feel that you are not human!
However, the arrow is ready to be sent and has to be sent, which is also something that there is no way to do.
Zhao Yunrang walked to Zhao Zhen's side and bowed to Zhao Zhen.
This is the treatment that Zhao Zhen gave him, no need to kowtow.
Zhao Yun made everyone else humble, but in this matter, there was no modesty.
Truth be told, knees don't bend easily.
"Uh-brother, I have something to tell you."
Zhao Zhen had long seen him muttering to the Queen Mother, and he knew that something was wrong.
Now seeing that Zhao Yun has come over, with an embarrassed look, he knows that something is wrong.
"You say, I'll listen."
"This is a long story, I just need to say it simply, can the emperor still remember, Concubine Li who died more than a year ago?"
"Remember, isn't that the concubine of my father, and in the end she was named Concubine Chen."
"Yes, that Concubine Li - it's your real mother!"
"What?"
Zhao Zhen was very surprised, and turned his eyes to Liu E on the sickbed.
The two looked at each other, and Liu E nodded slightly.
Zhao Zhen took two steps back in a row and sat on the chair next to him at once.
Zhao Yunrang hurriedly stepped forward: "This matter is a long story, but I can guarantee that although Concubine Li said that she went to guard the spirit, she did not receive any unfair treatment. โ
Zhao Zhen nodded, there is no concubine of the first emperor who can still enjoy this kind of treatment after death.
"That's because she's my motherโ"
To say that Zhao Zhen has no resentment at all is also nonsense, after all, his biological mother has been isolated for so many years, and she just knew.
However, Empress Dowager Liu's nurturing kindness to her cannot be forgotten.
Liu E adopted him under his knees, raised him as an adult, and sent him to the throne.
Although he has been in politics for several years, he has not interfered too much with him.
In other words, Empress Dowager Liu is fully capable of picking it up and doing it herself.
But no, the throne was given to him.
At this time, Liu E was able to tell the secret.
Concubine Li Chen has passed away, so this Empress Dowager Liu will also die now.
Being able to tell the story before she died also shows the sincerity of Empress Dowager Liu.
Otherwise, it's like the so-called "who cares about the flood after I die", right?
"What does the Queen Mother mean when she talks about this at this time?"
No way, as the emperor, Zhao Zhen is still very sensitive.
Zhao Yunrang stubbornly said: "Well, one is probably to settle a matter of concern, and in addition, I'm afraid I have to leave some favors for the Liu family." โ
Zhao Zhen nodded: "You went in person when Concubine Li died, you know the specific situation-"
"The Queen Mother and I discussed the disposal, and it was the highest specification among the concubines at that time."
"That's fine," Zhao Zhen walked to the bed, "The Queen Mother-I already know about this, and I hope the Queen Mother will take care of her health-"
As soon as she heard the word Queen Mother, a smile bloomed on Liu E's face, and the word "Queen Mother" showed that Zhao Zhen still regarded him as a mother.
Zhao Zhen was still there and said: "Please rest assured, the Queen Mother, in the future, the Liu family, I will still treat it as my own mother-"
The old palace maid next to her suddenly shouted: "The Queen Mother!" โ
