Chapter 310: Pulse
The emperor's face softened slightly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"The investigation must be investigated, but the left is just those that are close to Qi Chenjing." The emperor frowned, and began to calculate in his heart those families who were close to King An.
The Queen Mother's opinion is a little different, "If it is a family that has a good relationship with Qi Chenjing, then what is the purpose of such rumors that they are walking?" What do they want? ”
If you want to take a walk like such a rumor, let the ministers unite, force the emperor to comply, and appoint the emperor's younger brother, it is obviously a bit too child's play.
Not to mention that the emperor is in the prime of life, the spring and autumn period is in full bloom, that is, this time the queen failed to give birth to the prince, but there are still many concubines in the palace, who can guarantee that the emperor will not be able to give birth to the prince in the future.
Taking a step back, even if the emperor really has no children all the time, he can inherit a child from the clan, and he doesn't necessarily have to be the emperor's brother.
"It stands to reason that if it was such a rumor spread by Qi Chenjing's slut looking for someone, wouldn't this be a naked exposure of his purpose and pushing himself to the cusp?" The emperor also felt that this was not like what Qi Chenjing would do.
Anything that pushes oneself to the forefront is something that a fool would do.
"Even if I don't have a prince, I won't set up any imperial brother if I go to step a child." The emperor said angrily.
Speaking of succession, the Queen Mother's face changed, and a thought suddenly came to her mind.
"Maybe that's their purpose," the Queen Mother frowned and slowly scrutinized, "If you really have no children, you will naturally have to succeed, but the succession will naturally have to be chosen from the bloodline closest to the emperor." ”
The first emperor had only two sons, the emperor and the king of An.
"Therefore, if you want to succeed, Qi Chenjing's newborn son must be the first choice."
But what if there was another option?
The emperor has been injured outside, which means that the emperor may have some hidden diseases in his body, and if there are hidden diseases, the emperor's lifespan may not be long.
So is it better to inherit the throne with a baby who is still in infancy and does not know the sufferings of the world, or is it better to inherit the throne with a young and strong adult who is a decent person?
Most courtiers would choose the latter, right?
Assisting Mingjun and making history a long history, this is something that almost all civil ministers and military generals dream of.
The green tendons on the emperor's forehead almost jumped out.
He had apparently thought of this layer as well.
Releasing such news, firstly, is to distract people's minds and make the ministers start to think in a direction they have not thought about before, and secondly, to test or persecute the emperor, in this case, they can't do anything.
If he proposes to succeed, it is to admit that he has a hidden illness, and the emperor will definitely not do such a self-defeating thing.
The emperor's younger brother, he is even more reluctant.
But if you want to find an excuse to deal with Qi Chenjing at this time, it will make the ministers feel that he wants to cover up and can't accommodate his brothers, not to mention those imperial histories, even those old people of the clan who eat idle meals and worry about leisure every day can jump out and scold him.
The emperor suddenly felt like a fish in his throat, and he wanted to scold but didn't know what to scold.
"You didn't say that you were already planning to deal with Qi Chenjing, then let your people secretly speed up." The Queen Mother also felt that it was a little tricky, and after thinking about it, she could only let the emperor strike first.
Since the last time the emperor blamed her for meddling in Kang Yan's production, the queen mother has settled down a lot during this time, and she also came to discuss with the emperor about the rumors this time, and did not make her own decisions first.
This made the emperor feel a little more comfortable.
"It's already in the layout, and there will be news in the next year."
In fact, in the final analysis, it is because there is no prince now, thinking of the eldest prince who died unexpectedly before, and the little princess who was just born to the queen, the queen mother feels very pity.
How can she be a princess!
These imperial doctors are indeed bastards, if they had found out earlier, she had prepared earlier, and now the queen could only give birth to a prince, not like now, which caught her off guard.
The Queen Mother secretly hated in her heart!
There were so many people present at the time, it is estimated that the news that the queen gave birth to a princess has spread, and now it is too late for her to do anything.
"After all, you still have to have a prince to put an end to these things." The Queen Mother was also anxious, "There are so many concubines in the palace, and you are not less lucky, why can't you give birth to a son?" ”
Hearing this, the emperor remembered the gossip outside the palace again, and immediately stirred up his sensitive nerves, "Queen Mother, what do you mean?" Do you also doubt my .........? ”
"Mourning doesn't mean anything!" The Queen Mother interrupted angrily.
That's a little bit of interest! If she was suspicious, she would directly ask the Imperial Doctor to check his pulse.
The emperor pursed his lips, "Don't I want to have a prince?" I'm in a hurry more than anyone else. ”
It is no longer just a matter of needing the prince to inherit the throne, it is also about his dignity as a king and as a man.
What's the use of being angry with her, she has the ability to give birth to her son, the Queen Mother snorted in her heart.
This son is now becoming more and more disobedient and self-serving.
"Let's think about the matter of giving birth to a prince in the long run," the queen mother made a decision in her heart, "The queen is over, the original draft after the year will naturally be postponed, no matter how anxious you are, at this moment, let's find a way to deal with Qi Chenjing first." ”
After all, the queen is the mother of the country, and her death is a state funeral, and all wedding banquets are prohibited during the national funeral.
The emperor naturally has to mourn, and naturally he can't be drafted, even on the grounds of the emperor's heir, the draft will be postponed to three months at most.
Thinking that his plan to have a child was going to be put on hold for the time being, the emperor was even more depressed!
"Even if it's to appease the Li family of Pingzhang Hou, you have to act like this time," the Queen Mother looked at the emperor's unhappy look and warned her.
The palace maids who cleaned up for the queen inside had already come out, and the queen mother took a look at it and comforted the emperor, "Don't worry, with the queen mother, you will always be able to give birth to a prince to inherit the country." ”
If it really doesn't work, let's do it again.
The Queen Mother thought to herself and hurriedly ended the topic.
The palace maids in the inner hall rushed out, the door of the delivery room opened, and the faint smell of blood dispersed.
"My sister-in-law, ........." was already sober, and Mrs. Pingzhanghou, who insisted on letting the palace maid help her over, staggered into the delivery room.
The emperor glanced indifferently at the delivery room and turned to leave.
……………………
The sky had just been polished, and Chen Yikang hurriedly walked into the courtyard of the eldest princess of Fuyun.
The maidservant who was waiting under the porch helped him lift the curtain.
"Grandmother is up?"
The eldest princess's mother-in-law, who was waiting for her, was coming out of the inner room.
"The princess has something on her mind, how can she sleep peacefully, she has already gotten up, Sixth Young Master, please!"
After Chen Yikang entered, he saw that the eldest princess had already packed up.
"Is your cousin safe into town?" Seeing Chen Yikang come in, the eldest princess of Fuyun sat up straight eagerly.
Counting the time, Kang Yan should have entered the city late yesterday night, and she arranged for Chen Yikang to pick up early.
However, she didn't hear the news of Kang Yan's mother and son in person, and her heart was always hanging.
Chen Yikang nodded, "They went around a few times on the road, and the people guarding the door had already been sorted out when they entered the city, and the grandson did not show up in person, after the cousin entered the city, the grandson met with them and escorted the cousin to the house in Sanxing Hutong, cousin rest assured." ”
The eldest princess of Fuyun breathed a sigh of relief.
"My cousin asked her if she might bring Brother Tan to greet you?" Chen Yikang remembered what Kang Yan asked him to bring and asked.
Thinking of the little great-grandson who had never met since she was born, the eldest princess Fuyun sighed, "Alas, I also want to meet their mother and son, but there are many people in the house, it's not good for your cousin and their mother and son to come over, if I go out of the house, the movement will not be small, tell your cousin first, wronged her for a while, and then I will think of a way after the year." ”
Tomorrow night is Chinese New Year's Eve, and thinking of her beloved granddaughter and little grandson who are going to spend the New Year alone outside, Princess Fuyun is very distressed.
Chen Yikang is no exception to this answer, in fact, he and Kang Yan both knew the current situation last night, and it was not appropriate to meet.
"Tomorrow night, you go over quietly and help your cousin see how the New Year's affairs are prepared, although there are only their mother and son, you can't be too wronged by them."
Chen Yikang helped her to walk outside, "Grandmother, don't worry, grandchildren will arrange it, grandmother will have breakfast first." ”
As soon as I arrived outside, I saw Ning Guogong coming over in a hurry.
"It seems that your father is also in trouble," the eldest princess Fuyun patted Chen Yikang's hand, "You stay and listen to it together." ”
Then tell someone to fetch breakfast," ......... Let their father and son accompany my wife and son to use some together. ”
Only Mother Yue was left in the house, and she bowed to Ning Guogong and retreated to the door to guard.
"Mother, I just received news from the palace that the queen has given birth to a princess."
Princess? The eldest princess of Fuyun raised her eyebrows, but she was not too surprised.
"That's exactly what we're arranging." Although he knew that the queen might be pregnant with a princess, the moment he received the news, Ning Guogong was secretly relieved.
"It's still my mother who is calm, Jiang, it's still old and spicy!"
The eldest princess of Fuyun smiled.
Chen Yikang was confused, "Grandmother and father have long known that the queen mother will give birth to a princess?" ”
Can't you? Didn't I hear that the imperial doctors all said that he was a prince?
Ning Guogong and the eldest princess Fuyun looked at each other and smiled.
"It seems that the stone court has been silent for many years, and if you don't make a move, you will definitely not miss it." Ning Guogong sighed.
The eldest princess Fuyun arranged for her father to do some things he knew, but he didn't let him know that he had deliberately inquired, and today his grandmother left him, explaining that she wanted him to know these things.
The judgment of the stone court is talking about the judgment of the Tai Hospital, right? Chen Yikang pondered in his heart.
"Shi Ming is grandmother's person?" Listening to his father's emotion about Shi Ming's move, Chen Yikang asked.
But even if Shi Ming is a member of their Chen family, even if he is a court judge, he can't stop the mouths of all the imperial doctors, could it be that all the imperial doctors have diagnosed the wrong pulse?
Chen Yikang looked at the eldest princess Fuyun in puzzlement.
"Shi Ming is not a member of our Chen family, but when he was young, by chance, I saved the lives of their family, and seeing his superb medical skills, I found someone to arrange for him to work in the Tai Hospital, he was also considered to work hard, and after twenty years, he was sentenced by the hospital."
When she first saved the Shi family, she never thought that she would use him one day.
At that time, seeing that Shi Ming had excellent medical skills, she found someone to arrange for him to go to the Tai Hospital, and she had forgotten about it afterwards, if she hadn't met Shi Ming once, he took the initiative to mention it, and the eldest princess of Fuyun herself forgot about it.
"But how did the stone court judge do it?" Chen Yikang asked puzzled.
Speaking of this, Ning Guogong himself admired his mother.
"After Yan'er went to the imperial tomb, let your grandmother find reliable people for her, and the people we were looking for at that time were not mixed into other people's secret stakes." Ning Guo explained openly.
Chen Yikang remembered this incident, at that time Kang Yan was five months pregnant, and the queen should have been pregnant for just four months, Kang Yan asked her grandmother to pay attention to arranging manpower for her before going to the imperial mausoleum, and her grandmother took a lot of effort, but finally found that a stable woman was a secret stake in the palace, and her grandmother was quite angry at that time.
"These secret piles have been checked and checked, and they have found out where the Queen Mother is, your grandmother kept an eye on it at the time, thinking about estimating that the palace regards the child in Yan'er's belly as a thorn in the eye, if Yan'er gives birth to a girl, it will be fine, if it is a boy, it is estimated that it will be more dangerous in the future."
The eldest princess Fuyun thought of the fetus in the womb of the queen and Xin Guiren at that time, and wanted to know whether they were pregnant with a prince or a princess, if the two of them were a prince in their wombs, it is estimated that the queen mother and the emperor would not be so anxious to deal with the child in Kang Yan's belly.
She found the stone court to test it, at that time, Xin Guiren was five months pregnant, and the queen had just turned four months, and she could almost diagnose whether the fetus was male or female.
As a result, the stone court told her that the queen was pregnant with a princess, and although Xin Guiren was a prince in her belly, because someone used the medicine of the tiger and wolf on her, the child in her belly was destined not to be born.
The queen's pulse has always been in his diagnosis, and he knows how much the palace is looking forward to the prince, so he didn't reveal a word to the queen if she was pregnant with a princess.
If it was another imperial doctor, she didn't doubt what Shi Ming said.
Shi Ming has been in the hospital for many years, and his medical skills are second to none in the Tai Hospital, besides, although the eldest princess Fuyun has a life-saving grace for their family, the Chen family has never contacted him for so many years, let alone asked him to do anything.
Shi Ming had no reason to deceive him.
"If the queen mother knew that the queen was also a princess in her belly, she would probably be even more crazy to deal with Yan'er, so your grandmother hinted to Shi Ming and asked Shi Ming to adjust the queen's fetal pills and change the queen's pulse."
Shi Ming thanked the eldest princess Fuyun for saving her life, and that medicine would not harm the human body, but it could change the pulse of the human body, making the queen look like she was pregnant with a prince, but it would not damage the queen and the fetus, so Shi Ming should do this.
After that, Shi Ming took turns with the Tai Hospital under the pretext of being unwell, and asked other imperial doctors to diagnose the queen's pulse.
Most of the doctors in the Tai Hospital have checked the queen's pulse.
They all say that he is a prince.
"Grandmother is really smart, even if the queen gives birth to the princess, the emperor blames the imperial doctors, but almost all the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital have made mistakes, and the emperor can't cut down the imperial doctors, and the law does not blame the public!" Chen Yikang's eyes lit up, and he admired the foresight of the eldest princess Fuyun.
The admiration of her son and grandson made the eldest princess Fuyun feel very useful, "Actually, my grandmother didn't think so far at that time, she just wanted your cousin to get through the pregnancy safely, and now I think about it, fortunately, I took this step at that time." ”
Thinking of the news that Qi Chenjing asked Chen Yikang to bring back, the emperor may not be the blood of the first emperor, and the queen mother was secretly happy in her heart.
If the Queen Mother knew early that the queen was pregnant with a princess, it was hard to guarantee that she would not repeat the same tricks and get another prince out. (To be continued.) )
