Coming out of the palace of the virtuous concubine, the emperor thought about it and went to the palace of the queen mother. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Free the prisoners in the prison?" The Queen Mother raised her head to look at the emperor in surprise, and then her face sank, "The emperor is confused, the prison is full of people who have committed the most heinous crimes, how can it be said that if you are pardoned, you will be pardoned, even if it is to pray for the child in the belly of Concubine Xian." ”

Speaking of this, the Queen Mother's expression was restrained, "Besides, all the people who were imprisoned in the prison were once officials, and they were all imprisoned by the emperor's golden mouth, and now in order to pray for the unborn prince, the emperor pardoned them, so that the upside-down behavior will not make the subjects of the world laugh and make the civil and military officials angry, no, the mourning family does not agree." ”

The most important thing is that Su Jin is still imprisoned in the prison, if the emperor pardons everyone, wouldn't Su Jin be among the pardoned, no, she will definitely not let Su Jin get out of the prison alive.

The emperor's face was a little unhappy, he originally wanted to discuss this matter with the Queen Mother, and also thought that the Queen Mother might have a complaint about this matter, but he didn't expect the Queen Mother to react so violently.

"However, Queen Mother, I am twenty years old this year, and it has been more than two years since I ascended the throne, and my knees are still empty, I am the lord of the world, if I don't even have an heir, who will inherit this great beam in the future?"

At the mention of the heir, the Queen Mother was silent.

This is the common pain in the hearts of their mother and son.

When the emperor was the crown prince, he had a group of wives and concubines, but none of them gave birth to heirs, and when he became the emperor, there were more women, and the opportunity should have been greater, but who knew that the result was still the same.

The Queen Mother pursed her lips for a moment before she spoke: "The emperor is still young, don't worry about the heirs, you are still young, and then select beautiful women to enter the palace, the mourning family will not believe that they will not be able to hold the emperor and grandson." ”

"How can I not be in a hurry, I have already ........... in my previous life" The emperor shouted a little irritably, and as soon as the words came out, he immediately realized that something was wrong, and the rest of the words were held in his throat.

He already had two children at this time in his previous life, although they were both daughters.

Now he is twenty years old, but he still sees the shadow of a child.

His current identity is the emperor, he must have a son, a son he wanted in his previous life but didn't want.

Looking at it this way, who would dare to make a fuss about his heirs?

The Queen Mother frowned and looked at the emperor, "What are you talking about?" The mourning family seems to have heard something from a past life. ”

The emperor picked up the red engraved gold silk begonia teacup in front of him, tasted it lightly, and his expression was a little unnatural, "It's the Qiandi, I just wanted to say that when I was in the Qiandi, I wanted a child in my heart, and I was too anxious, so I said the wrong thing." As he spoke, he laughed dryly twice to hide his discomfort.

I? The Queen Mother was slightly stunned, and suddenly felt that the emperor's self-proclaimed title was a little harsh.

When did it start? The emperor no longer calls himself the emperor in front of her, but calls himself me, why is she not impressed?

Is it because the emperor has been doing it for a long time, and he has a majestic aura on his body, and he can't even change it in front of himself?

Shaking her head, the Queen Mother smiled a little, it was really strange, how could she pay attention to such a trivial matter.

The emperor saw that the queen mother looked stunned and didn't speak, so he tentatively said: "Queen Mother, I am indeed worried about the problem of heirs, there are always rumors in this palace that I have no heirs, and I am cursed, so I .........."

Before the emperor finished speaking, the queen mother's face sank, and she shouted to stop the emperor's unspoken words: "Shut up, the emperor, what nonsense, you are the king of a country, how can you listen to those rumors, don't you understand the truth that three people become tigers?" ”

Her voice was sharp, and her expression was even a little hideous, which startled the emperor.

"Queen Mother, I'm just talking about the worries in my heart, why are you so excited?" The emperor looked at the Queen Mother with a strange expression, and his face suddenly changed, "Tell me that those rumors are true, Queen Mother?" ”

The Queen Mother's expression was so excited that he lost his mind for a moment.

It is not a matter of one or two days for him and the Queen Mother to be mother and son, and he has also figured out the temperament of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother is a bit serious and not friendly enough, but she is sincere to him.

She rarely goes out of her palace, most of the time she reads Buddhist scriptures, raises flowers and plants, and only attends some celebrations together during the New Year's holidays.

For political affairs, she rarely participates, and occasionally only asks for an official position for the children of her mother's family, which are within his tolerance, so the emperor is also happy to fulfill it and make a mother and son filial piety.

The only exception was that she forcibly allowed herself to arrest Pingbei Hou Sujin without any reason.

When the emperor thought of this, his expression moved slightly, and his heart was a little clear, the queen mother's expression had a sense of guilt, and it seemed that ninety percent of the rumors were true.

The Queen Mother stared at the big red embroidered Korean flower mat on the ground, and her voice was a little ethereal, "There will be no curse, where will there be any curse, there is no such thing, there is no such thing." ”

She repeated this sentence over and over again, not as if she was saying it to the emperor, as if she wanted to convince herself.

"Dong, you ruthless slut, you harm my child, your child will not end well in the future." The woman in the garnet red palace dress Luo skirt, the corners of her mouth kept bleeding out, but her eyes were hideous and ruthless, and her sharp voice kept echoing in the empty hall.

"Even if I go to hell, I won't let you go, I will always follow you and watch you." The bright red blood continued to flow downward, mixed with the garnet-red clothes, becoming bright red and dazzling.

"I curse you, Dong, you will definitely cut off your children and grandchildren in the future, and in the future, you will die alone and old, and your fate will be a hundred times worse than mine."

Old and alone, die alone!

The woman fell to the ground, but her unwilling voice echoed in the wide palace.

Old and helpless, he died alone.

These words were also in her heart.

At first, she didn't particularly care, she had not been contaminated with human life in her years as a queen.

But since the crown prince married the crown princess, she has always been looking forward to holding her grandson.

It is also strange to say that the prince's wives and concubines are pregnant, but none of them have been pregnant for three months, and after the prince ascended the throne, this kind of thing happened more frequently.

Rumors gradually spread in the palace that their mother and son were cursed and destined to have no heirs for the emperor.

Old and helpless, he died alone. This sentence suddenly came to her ears, and the more she didn't want to think about it, the more she remembered it, and even began to have nightmares at night.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be so eager to track down the events of the year.

Because she always dreamed that she was dying alone in the midst of illness.

No, she is the queen mother, and now the saint is her son, she is the most respected woman in the world, and no one wants to decide her fate.

No one.

No one!

Empress Dowager Dong repeated it several times in her heart, and her expression calmed down slightly.

"Mother, are you alright?" The emperor asked with concern.

The Queen Mother shook her head and disguised: "I haven't had a good rest these days, my spirit is a little weak, and the mourning family is a little tired, so I want to rest for a while." ”

"What about pardoning the prisoners in the prison?" The emperor hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Actually, there are not many prisoners in the prison now, I have calculated it, there are no heinous crimes, and there is nothing to pardon, but how to deal with Su Jin, the Marquis of Pingbei, please show the queen mother." ”

Su Jin was arrested by the Queen Mother, and how to deal with him naturally had to ask the Queen Mother.

At the mention of Pingbei Marquis Su Jin, the Queen Mother's face suddenly sank again.

She asked the emperor to release the people of the Su family, which was regarded as agreeing to Su Jin's conditions.

Su Jin was also very cooperative at first, pointing out a few roads, but the people she sent out made an unannounced visit for a long time, and they didn't find anyone like the child back then.

Su Jin was lying to her at all! Realizing this, Empress Dowager Dong was furious, and asked Sun Zhong to torture Su Jin, but he refused to say anything, no matter what kind of torture he used, he was silent.

The people of the Su family have been released, and she has nothing to threaten Su Jin.

You can't let the emperor order the Su family back, right?

Not to mention that this will make people all over the world question the emperor's repeated actions and reduce the emperor's prestige, even he himself has no suitable reason to speak to the emperor.

forcibly let the emperor arrest the Su family by decree, which must have aroused the emperor's suspicion.

The emperor looked at the Empress Dowager Dong's complicated expression, but he didn't open his mouth to urge.

After arresting Su Jin, he asked people to secretly investigate the matter, although he did not find out the specific reason, but it was not for nothing.

Before Su Jin inherited the title of Marquis of Pingbei, he was very appreciated by the first emperor, and he was also mentioned as the head of the imperial guard.

At that time, Su Jin often entered the court for the first time, and it was not necessarily that the queen mother had any tricks that Su Jin knew.

He didn't find out what the specific trick was, but the news that his people found seemed to be related to some child.

The Queen Mother's people are constantly tracking down the whereabouts of a child.

The palace struggle has always been cruel and powerful, and he thinks that this matter is nothing more than the aftermath of the struggle with other concubines when the queen mother was still the queen.

The emperor was not very interested in this matter, and he did not want to know about the past, anyway, in the end, it was their mother and son who won.

The Queen Mother is his mother, not his enemy, as long as the Queen Mother does not interfere in his political affairs, he is still very willing to respect and honor the Queen Mother.

Therefore, he transferred the person back and did not follow up on the investigation.

The Queen Mother's people kept going to the prison to ask Su Jin, but he turned a blind eye, pretending not to know about it, and never took the initiative to mention it in front of the Queen Mother.

Empress Dowager Dong was silent for a long time, and finally made a decision, "What Concubine Xian said is not a solution, return the family property of those prisoners in the prison, forget about pardon, don't let the world think that the emperor is capricious." ”

The emperor nodded, "Well, then that's it, the queen mother will rest first, and I will go back first." ”

Looking at the back of the emperor going out, the queen mother breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person collapsed on the chair, and after a while, she came back to her senses and called Sun Zhong to come over to serve.

"That Su Jin don't stay any longer, find a way to let him die in prison." The Queen Mother instructed Sun Zhong with a gloomy expression.

Sun Zhong nodded and wrote it down, and asked hesitantly, "Which child are we not looking for?" ”

"The people who knew the truth of the matter back then are basically dead, if Su Jin is also dead, this matter can be regarded as a dead case, let's stop here first." rs
