Chapter 311: Three Divine Decrees

"It's no wonder that my grandmother was able to let us arrange for people to spread rumors so early," Chen Yikang has now sorted everything out, and he admires his grandmother's arrangement even more. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

When the rumors spread, he wondered, the emperor's younger brother? The queen is about to give birth, if the queen gives birth to a prince, where will there be any matter of the emperor's brother.

"It turns out that everything is in my grandmother's hands!"

The eldest princess of Fuyun shook her head, these skills of controlling everything and calculating people's hearts have been exchanged for countless injuries, if she can, she doesn't want her children and grandchildren to do this.

"It's going to be windy, depending on the weather, it is estimated that there will be snow at night!" The eyes of the eldest princess Fuyun looked through the half-open window lattice, looking at the already bright sky outside, and the morning fog was filled, and it could be seen that it was a cloudy day.

Why do you suddenly feel the weather? Chen Yikang was a little puzzled.

Ning Guogong knew that his mother was lamenting the impermanence of the world.

Thinking of the other news he received, he couldn't help but sigh, the world is indeed impermanent.

"The news from the palace also said that the queen had a difficult birth, and she was killed!"

The queen is gone? The eldest princess of Fuyun turned her head in surprise.

"What's going on?"

Ning Guogong's face was a little not good, "It is said that it was a difficult birth, and the queen was weak and couldn't hold on, so the doctor asked the emperor whether to protect the adult or the child." ”

"The emperor chose to protect the child?" The anger on the eldest princess Fuyun's face flashed.

If that's the case, the emperor is too chilling, that's his original match.

Ning Guogong shook his head, "At that time, Mrs. Pingzhanghou was also there, and the emperor didn't say that he would protect the child, but he asked the imperial physician to go in to help the doctor, and the child was born safely, but unfortunately the queen was ........., and our people suspect that the imperial physician may have chosen to take the child by caesarean section." ”

Laparotomy? Rao is the eldest princess of Fuyun has lived most of her life, and she still gasps.

Chen Yikang on the side was speechless in shock.

"Is the news true?"

Disembowelment! The emperor is too ruthless, the queen is still alive, and he forcibly opened his stomach and took out the child, which has no intention of leaving a way for the queen to live.

"Our people just suspected, but didn't verify." Ning Guogong shook his head.

The queen gave birth in the early morning, and it was not easy to get the news out so quickly.

The eldest princess of Fuyun was silent, and after a while, she said: "If this matter is true, the emperor will definitely deal with the relevant palace maids, stable women, medical women and other insiders, and let our people find a way to investigate the queen's body." ”

If it is a disembowelment, the corpse will definitely leave traces.

Ning Guogong nodded and wrote it down.

"Also, if the news is true, find a way to reveal the news to Pingzhanghou and his wife." The eldest princess of Fuyun frowned, thought for a while, and added.

Pingzhang Hou Li Jiazu also accompanied Taizu to fight the world, the world was initially decided, Taizu was awarded the meritorious hero according to the merit, and the Li family was awarded Pingzhangbo.

Unlike many nobles who started with military merits, although the Li family gave the title of Pingzhangbo, it was not publicized, and Pingzhangbo was very strict with the upbringing of his children.

The children of the Li family, whether they are academics or martial arts, have been strictly required to learn since they were young.

And regardless of their identity, the men of the Li family were all thrown into the army to experience training when they reached the age of fifteen, starting from ordinary soldiers.

After so many years, the Li family also has a deep foundation in the army, and its prestige is also very high.

When the first emperor was alive, the Tartars outside the northern Xinjiang invaded the south, the first emperor drove the expedition, the previous generation of Ping Zhangbo followed the expedition, blocked an arrow for the first emperor in the battle against the northern Xinjiang, and used the strategy to force the Tartars, the first emperor read his merits, and was crowned as the Marquis of Pingzhang by Ping Zhangbo.

The current Pingzhang Marquis Li Wen is the title of Pingzhang Marquis who took over from his father, Li Wen himself also started to experience from an ordinary sergeant, and slowly accumulated military merits, and now there is Li Wen in the Jingdong camp.

The queen's mother Li Qiuci is Li Wen's youngest daughter, Li Wen and his wife have been in love all their lives, and have three sons and two daughters.

If the Li family learns the truth about the death of the queen's mother, I am afraid that the Li family will be cold to the emperor in their hearts.

The 20,000 soldiers and horses of the Jingdong battalion are the reserve force of the garrison of Gyeonggi, if the Li family is cold to the emperor, it is tantamount to the emperor missing a strong arm, which is beneficial and harmless to Qi Chenjing.

After quickly passing through these interests in his heart, Ning Guogong had a plan in his heart.

After breakfast, sure enough, the wind rose, and after a while, large snowflakes fell, and in less than half a day, the whole capital was covered in a snow-white, covered in silver, covering up the dirt and dirt behind everything.

On the day before this Chinese New Year's Eve, the palace issued three holy decrees in a row.

First, the queen mother gave birth to the eldest princess on the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, and the queen mother died because of dystocia, from now on, the whole country will mourn the queen mother for one month, and all joy feasts and drinks are prohibited!

The second holy decree, the queen mother gave birth to the princess meritorious, the father of the queen of Jin, Pingzhang Hou Li Wen is the prince of Pingzhang, and Mrs. Li and the three sons of the Li family are rewarded.

The third holy decree, the emperor was so sad because of the death of the queen mother that he had fallen ill on the bed, and the draft originally scheduled for the year after the year was postponed to next year's Dragon Boat Festival.

As soon as the three holy decrees came out, the whole city was in an uproar.

The old ministers of the clan, the imperial history Hanlin, and the ministers first lamented the difficulty of the emperor's heir, and finally the queen was pregnant, but in the end only gave birth to a princess.

The emperor is almost thirty years old, and from last year to now, only two concubines in the palace are pregnant.

Could it be that the emperor really has a hidden disease?

Inexplicably, many people think of the rumors that are quietly circulating now.

Brother Huangtai! Some ministers began to change their minds.

Maybe it's time to think about these things!

And the fact that the Marquis of Pingzhang was the Duke of Pingzhang also made many families, especially some old nobles who were eating the glory of their ancestors in the old days, envious and dissatisfied.

In addition to Taizu's accession to the throne, when he was rewarded according to merit, many princes and dukes were awarded, and then the later emperors only awarded titles to meritorious people in the battle with northern Xinjiang.

To the current emperor, he has not been awarded a knighthood since he ascended the throne.

Over the years, there have been fewer and fewer dukes' homes in Daliang, and many of the children of the duke's homes are just leading idle lives, living on the shadow of their ancestors.

Like the Li family, from Pingzhangbo at the beginning of the founding of the country to Pingzhanghou of the first dynasty, and then to the current Pingzhanggong, he is definitely the leader among the nobles.

Therefore, there are those who envy, those who are jealous, and those who sigh.

"It's all the credit of that sick queen!" The jealous man pouted and said.

When someone who is good at drilling the camp heard this, their eyes lit up, and they secretly began to focus on the position of the new queen.

But I remembered the third holy decree and postponed the draft, and I felt a little lost in my heart, but most of the year's work was enough to plan, so the ambitious people rolled up their sleeves and began to jump up and down.

Compared with the first two holy decrees, the third holy decree has set off much smaller waves, and speaking of which, everyone is also praising the emperor's deep affection and righteousness.

In short, the emperor relied on rewarding the Li family and postponing the draft to gain a good reputation among the ministers.

However, the newly sealed Li family of Pingzhang Gong was unexpectedly silent, except for when the queen stopped mourning, the ladies of the Li family entered the palace to cry, and the Duchess of Pingzhang fainted several times because of excessive sadness, and at other times, the Li family closed their doors.

The snow fell for a whole day and did not stop until late in the evening.

The cold wind stopped, and the white lanterns that had just been replaced under the silver-white corridor of the courtyard were a little cold.

Kang Yan's hand was carefully baking a pair of dirty pants on the carbon basin, but there was a sarcasm on her face that couldn't be concealed, "......... Affectionate? If it is really affectionate, it should not postpone the draft, and if it is not drafted in the future, wouldn't it be even more affectionate. ”

She entered the city late yesterday night, and she didn't expect that so many things would happen in just one day.

She had just given birth, and she was most touched by the woman's birth, and when she heard that the queen died in childbirth, she inevitably felt a wave of sympathy for her birthday.

She didn't enter the palace many times, remembering the queen she had only seen a few times, at that time she was still living in the shadow of the imperial concubine, and she had always been gentle and polite, and even a little cowardly.

Kang Yan had a bad impression of the palace, but at least when she entered the palace, the queen mother never felt sorry for her.

is also a poor person, and after her death, she will be used by the emperor to make a reputation.

Su Yuhuan, who was sitting next to him, was holding Brother Tan in his hand and teasing, and he sighed when he heard the words.

But Kang Shaofan didn't react.

He sent the news of the queen's death in childbirth.

When Kang Yan arrived last night, Su Yuhuan was already quietly waiting here, afraid that she would not be comfortable, Su Yuhuan had been with her today, and she couldn't put down the chubby Brother Tan.

Kang Shaofan came against the snow, he still has to be on duty during the day, tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, from tomorrow to the sixth day of the new year, he does not have to be on duty.

"My sister lives here with peace of mind, I took a look when I came just now, there are two secret sentinels arranged around here, my grandmother sent someone to guard the periphery, and the people brought by my sister are guarding around the yard, so you don't have to worry too much about safety."

Sanxing Hutong, a two-entry house, was purchased by Kang Shaofan by chance.

He had the idle job of riding and guarding the guards, and under the arrangement of the Chen family, he entered the Su Guard Army as an errand boy.

The Su Guards are responsible for the security and defense of the capital, and they are indispensable for patrolling the streets every day.

One day when patrolling the streets, he caught a sneaky thief, and after careful interrogation, he found out that the little thief had actually burglarized, and after being discovered by the master's family, he stabbed the master's house with a knife in a hurry.

The thief broke into the house in Sanxing Hutong.

In the spirit of running an errand to the end, Kang Shaofan went to this house to investigate, but found that there was only one dead middle-aged man.

Out of mercy, he buried the middle-aged man.

After more than a month, a middle-aged man's family found him, thanked him for his kindness in burying him, and donated the house to Kang Shaofan.

Kang Shaofan told Kang Yan about the origin of the house, "......... There are ordinary businesses all around, and the people who live there are relatively simple, and there are not many people who come and go on weekdays, so if there are fresh faces to explore, it is easy to be found. ”

"After I took over this house, I opened a small door in the hidden place in the backyard, which was blocked by firewood on weekdays, and I couldn't find it if I didn't look closely, just in case I needed it."

Kang Yan's mind also turned away with Kang Shaofan's words.

"I haven't seen you for more than half a year, but the ninth brother has grown up." Looking at Kang Shaofan's serious appearance, Kang Yan couldn't help but think of the days when their sister and brother depended on each other in those years.

In the blink of an eye, almost five years have passed.

Both of them are married and have more relatives.

Kang Shaofan was thinking intently about where he hadn't prepared for Kang Yan, when he was suddenly interrupted by Kang Yan, a flush appeared on his face, and then he straightened his chest again, "What my sister said, I am married, I am an adult, I will try my best to protect my sister in the future, Brother Tan, and Huan'er, our family will always be fine." ”

actually brought up Brother Tan solemnly, Kang Yan was amused and moved in her heart.

"Well, my sister believes in you, Xiao Jiu is the best brother."

Kang Shaofan obviously didn't expect his most beloved sister to suddenly praise him like this, his face was red, and he pinched the corners of his clothes at a loss.

"Oh, Brother Tan, you little villain, you don't even squeak!" The side suddenly remembered Su Yuhuan's exclamation.

Kang Yan turned her head to look, and saw Su Yuhuan looking at Brother Tan with a stunned face, and the goose yellow butterfly on her body was already **.

Brother Tan also twisted his eyes half-squinted, not knowing that he had already caused trouble.

"Flutter!" Kang Yan couldn't help laughing, "This little villain actually peed on your aunt and mother, and he should be beaten." ”

Mama Zhang, who had been waiting in the house, hurriedly stepped forward to pick up Brother Tan, "Oh, congratulations to my uncle and grandmother, this child's child urine is the most joyful, and I think there will be good news for my uncle and grandmother soon." ”

Is there such a statement?

Kang Yan and the three of them all looked at Mama Zhang.

Mama Zhang nodded, "It's true, don't believe it, just wait and see." ”

Su Yuhuan looked forward to it again, and glanced at Kang Shaofan shyly.

If it's true, she has to thank Brother Tan.

Kang Yan's gaze turned on the two of them, "It's been half a year since the two of you got married, why haven't you heard any news?" ”

Su Yuhuan blushed.

She and Kang Shaofan are not controlled by elders on weekdays, and the two of them have the final say in the affairs of the family, and the affairs between husband and wife are quite frequent on weekdays.

Two young couples are greedy for joy.

Three months after getting married, she also had her mind set up wanting a child.

Kang Shaofan hugged her and coaxed her, "......... Wait, don't worry, let's live for the two of us for a while, and with children, where can I still be so comfortable! ”

What is the freedom method? Su Yuhuan has already experienced it in Kang Shaofan's next actions.

It's just that how can she say this kind of thing to Kang Yan, you can't say that your brother is addicted to the pleasures of the boudoir and doesn't want children for the time being.

"I'm going to change my clothes." She got up and hurried out.

The house is stocked with her clothes.

Kang Shaofan, who was left behind, was also red to the root of his ears, and he was snorting for a long time before replying: "......... Huan'er is still young and wants to wait for her to be older. ”

Kang Yan also had a hard time asking her younger brother, what happened in her younger brother and sister's room, looking at the appearance of the two of them, the relationship was quite good.

She put her mind at ease, "......... If only you knew for yourselves. ”

"Sister, tomorrow night's Chinese New Year's Eve, let's both stay here, our house is too eye-catching, it's not good to pick you and Brother Tan over." Seeing that Kang Yan was no longer entangled in the topic just now, Kang Shaofan hurriedly changed the topic.

Tomorrow night is Chinese New Year's Eve, although the empress is newly mourned, all banquets are forbidden, just after the New Year, behind closed doors, the family still has to eat together and keep vigil together.

Kang Shaofan naturally didn't want Kang Yan's mother and son to celebrate the New Year by themselves.

Kang Yan naturally has no different meanings, Sanxing Hutong is quiet, and Kang Shaofan and his wife come quietly, which will not be too eye-catching.

"I guess my sixth cousin will come tomorrow night." Kang Yan thought that her grandmother would definitely not let their mother and son celebrate the New Year alone, and she should let Chen Yikang come over to accompany them.

Qi Chenjing, who was in the imperial mausoleum, could only celebrate the New Year alone.

They are husband and wife, father and son cannot be reunited in this year! (To be continued.) )
