Xiao Yue took Zhang Chunzi's medicine, such a private matter, Gu Nian didn't say anything, and the county lord of Jingning naturally didn't know.

"You haven't been born for so many years, or let's find a place to worship and ask for peace of mind."

Gu Nian couldn't cry or laugh, the eldest princess didn't say anything on the side, she witnessed the little couple coming all the way, so many years, Xiao Yue still wholeheartedly Gu Nian, so she was not in a hurry.

However, the county lord of Jingning is a mother, and he has just returned home, so his thoughts are different.

Gu Nian's chin rested on her shoulder and nodded, always so that the motherly love of the county lord of Jingning had a place to vent.

Seeing that she agreed, the lord of Jingning County hurriedly discussed with the eldest princess of the protector which temple outside the city would be more effective.

That night, after Xiao Yue came back, Gu Nian was packing up Xu'er's things to enter the palace.

When she cleaned up, she could appreciate the love of the county lord of Jingning.

Where will there be a shortage of things in the palace? But Gu Nian still cleaned up a lot for him, and it was very useful to use the posture of carriage transportation.

At first, Xiao Yue could still deal with it calmly, but when the second watch was knocked, Gu Nian had no intention of stopping, so he couldn't sit still.

He snatched the things in Gu Nian's hand, dragged the person and walked inside.

Gu Nian said, "Don't toss, my mother said she would take me to the temple to worship." ”

Her words were full of teasing.

If Xiao Yue hadn't taken Zhang Chunzi's medicine, according to his tossing strength, it is estimated that there would be several children.

Xiao Yue didn't raise his head, untied her clothes, and said, "There have been a lot of things recently, or I went to another city, and the four princes don't know where to nest in." ”

Gu Nian's clothes were almost half untied by him, and he struggled hopelessly, raised his hand to touch his face, and smiled lowly, "But I also want to go and worship, don't you want a daughter?" ”

Xiao Yue looked at her deeply and put down the curtain, "Born now." ”

……

The second day didn't work out.

Gu Nian's waist was sore and his legs were weak, and he was embarrassed to go to see the lord of Jingning and the eldest princess, just in time for the prince to be beautiful, it was cloudy at noon, and it rained in the evening.

When the county lord of Jingning saw Gu Nian's little appearance, she knew what was going on, but in fact, she didn't have to go to the temple to worship.

If the gods and Buddhas are really useful, then why did she suffer so much after worshipping so many gods and Buddhas in the past?

As long as the little couple is affectionate, the child will come naturally.

Go to the temple to worship and worship like this.

……

Since Empress Jiang was imprisoned in the cold palace, her life can be described by the word 'difficult'.

Although the queen mother, who manages the palace affairs now, will not treat her harshly, but the people who can mix in the palace are all human spirits, from palace maids to eunuchs, they are all watching people put dishes.

After Empress Jiang arrived in the cold palace, the emperor did not ask a word, but he sent the newly crowned imperial concubine Mingzhu over to serve Empress Jiang.

Although Mingzhu is not favored by the emperor, she is a free body, and Queen Jiang is really out of favor.

What's more, Mingzhu didn't really come to serve, and it was almost the same to torture.

Leftovers, leftovers, there is always only cold water in the winter, but in the summer it is replaced by hot water.

The clothes were no longer silk and satin, but were replaced by coarse linen clothes that could grind the skin into blood, and they were worse than the lowest-ranking palace people in the palace.

What's even more terrifying is that Mingzhu often tortures Queen Jiang with words.

This day is the day when Xu Er enters the palace, and it is very lively outside.

Empress Jiang shrank in the cold palace and asked, "What's wrong today?" Why is it so lively outside? ”

Mama Ye smiled reluctantly, looking at the tortured and inhuman-shaped Empress Jiang in front of her, she was inexplicably a little sad.

She followed Empress Jiang and watched how she killed herself step by step.

She pretended not to care and said, "The slave and maid don't know much about it, maybe it's where the war is won again." ”

Empress Jiang nodded, "It is estimated that King Jin is in the limelight again." ”

Her tone was full of contempt and disdain.

Mama Ye didn't talk well, but said, "Niangniang doesn't have to worry about these idle things, just take this medicine." ”

"What to drink?" Empress Jiang's face appeared hideous, "No matter how well the disease is cured, the emperor will not come to see the palace, what are you doing with these Laoshzi?"

I won't let her go if that slut has hurt me so far. ”

She casually flipped over the medicine bowl in Mama Ye's hand, making a harsh sound.

Mama Ye looked at the medicine bowl that had been turned to the ground, this was the last time the emperor was gracious, and agreed that she would bring the medicine in for Queen Jiang to eat.

If Empress Jiang doesn't eat it, her body will be completely ruined.

Moreover, as long as you take the medicine, you will fall asleep, and you won't feel so difficult, and the excitement outside, I'm afraid that if it goes on like this, you can't hide it.

Mama Ye sighed in her heart, and squatted down to clean up the broken medicine bowl.

"Mama Ye, why are you so troubled? When you were asked to serve in this palace, you had to suffer the anger of this crazy woman here. ”

Mingzhu walked in from the door in full costume, followed by a palace maid and eunuch.

Empress Jiang saw Mingzhu's imperial concubine clothes, the smile on her face was so hateful, as well as her delicate face and beautiful figure.

These all reflect her ugliness at the moment, during this time in the cold palace, she didn't dare to look in the mirror, for fear of seeing her wrinkled face.

Her heart was full of anger, at the time of Izumo Temple, she didn't know what was wrong, it was obviously designed to take care of her, but it was Mingzhu who went to the emperor's dragon bed, and soared into the sky, and was named the imperial concubine.

This is clearly lifting a stone to shoot yourself in the foot,

"Get out." Empress Jiang looked at the pearl with a strong face.

Mingzhu looked at Empress Jiang with a smile, "The concubine is sent by the emperor to 'serve' you." Don't dare to leave easily. ”

"Besides, today's concubine can bring you good news, do you want to hear it?"

"If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have a fart, let it go."

Mingzhu stroked his palm and smiled, "I really should let the people of the world take a good look at what they do, what the virtuous queen mother does and what she says." ”

"Queen Mother, you don't know yet......"

Her red lips curled slightly, with a sarcastic smile in her eyes, and she said in a slow voice, "Today, the emperor will bring the child of Princess Jin into the palace to be raised."

Not only that, but let him live in the side hall of the Qiankun Palace, how about it? How do you feel about listening to it? ”

Mingzhu approached Queen Jiang step by step, and the smile on the corner of her lips became more and more weird.

Empress Jiang was stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief, "What did you say?" ”

"The emperor took Princess Jin's child into the palace and raised it personally." Mingzhu kindly repeated it again.

"Impossible!" Empress Jiang shook her head, "How can King Jin be willing?" It was their only child. ”

The corners of Mingzhu's mouth were raised, revealing a sarcastic smile, "How is it impossible?" Don't you hear the buzz outside? The whole palace is busy with this. ”

Empress Jiang still didn't believe it, shook her head and said, "The emperor just took him in for a few days, and it wasn't like nothing before." ”

"You just deceive yourself, you obviously know what's going on, the emperor doesn't have no children, why did he take Princess Jin's children into the palace?

The Queen Mother should know better than anyone else. ”

Mingzhu pursed a smile at the corner of her lips, as if tempting Queen Jiang to tell the secret conjecture in her heart.

Empress Jiang stepped back step by step, she had such a conjecture, but the conjecture did not count, so she asked Mrs. Pingyang Hou to turn over her thoughts and wanted to do this 'conjecture'.

She felt like she was going crazy, and said sharply, "What kind of kindness did you have when you told me about this?" Even if I die, you won't sit in the position of queen. ”

Mingzhu smiled sadly, "Empress? Who is rare for the throne of the queen? You obviously know that what I want to enter is the Jin Palace, not to be the emperor's concubine.

But you were in Izumoji Temple, and you actually made people stun me and send me to the emperor's bed.

But I didn't expect it, stealing chickens and rice will not make you lose money, and you will send yourself to the cold palace.

The emperor is really good-natured and can tolerate you staying in the palace, but you probably wouldn't have imagined that I tortured you during this time, but it was all instructed by the emperor.

Sure enough, the most ruthless emperor put you in the palace, tortured you every day, and didn't let you die.

Also, it's so easy to die, and being tortured alive is the most painful, right? ”

Mingzhu's words were like a sharp blade, destroying Empress Jiang's last bit of expectation about the emperor.

Mingzhu's misunderstanding is no longer a big deal.

The only thing she could think of was that she was arrogant all her life and gave all her feelings to the emperor, but in the end it became a joke.

The emperor kept saying that he was willing to live alone with her, but in the end he allowed other women to torture her.

She sneered, not knowing whether she was laughing at herself or Mingzhu.

The smile on her face grew bigger and bigger, and she slowly laughed out loud, laughing and laughing, and tears followed.

Mama Ye went over and hugged her, "Niangniang, don't listen to her nonsense, you must take care of yourself, you have a long time to come." ”

"Is it still long?" Empress Jiang was a little distracted, she thought. What did she get in her life?

It was a void from start to finish.

Even Mama Ye in front of her, probably, wanted to get something from her.

She said to Mama Ye, "You don't have to comfort me, I know that you can see the emperor, you bring a message to the emperor, please read it to us for the sake of our husband and wife for so many years, I want to see King An, please ask him for permission." ”

After listening to what Mama Ye said, the emperor groaned for a while, and finally sighed deeply and said, "Let King An enter the palace to see her, I hope this time, it can stop."

Tell her, though, that this is the last time. ”

After the emperor's approval, Mama Ye went out of the palace and went to King An's mansion and summoned King An into the palace.

After King An arrived in the cold palace, Queen Jiang was unusual, and did not scold, but greeted King An coldly.

The emperor has not summoned King An for a long time, this time, he was suddenly summoned, it was for Queen Jiang, he didn't know the purpose of Queen Jiang to see him, thinking that filial piety could not be violated, so he entered the palace.

But when I entered the cold palace and saw the appearance of Queen Jiang, I felt uncomfortable again, where did my mother still have the scenery of the past, she was obviously not old, but she was the same as an old woman, no wonder her father looked down on her.

Empress Jiang shushed and asked for warmth, took King An's hand, sighed, looked at the ground and said, "In the past, life in the East Palace was not easy, but our mother and mother were together. ”

"Now, the mother and son are separated, and they are still despised for no reason, not only you, but the mother is here, and I don't know if I will stay until the Year of the Monkey.

When I think of this, I can't help but feel sad and aggrieved.

I just hope that you can do well outside the palace, and in the future, you can find a good fiefdom and stay away. ”

In the end, it is her biological mother, when Queen Jiang was just imprisoned in the cold palace, King An also went to the emperor to intercede.

was just kicked out of the palace by the emperor.

wanted to come to the cold palace to see the queen, but in the emperor's cold gaze, he swallowed his words back.

Yun'er once told him that he must not be impulsive, the queen mother is no longer guaranteed, if he goes to the emperor too much to speak for her, the emperor will not only stop, but will be angry with himself.

Anyway, the mother's position is still there, as long as he forbears and waits for the opportunity in the future, so that the mother and son will naturally be able to reunite at that time.

He thought so, but he couldn't bear to see the queen's desolation.

However, in the past, Empress Jiang would never show weakness to him like this, such an abnormality, what idea did she Mo Fei have?

Sure enough, just as he was groaning, Empress Jiang whispered to him,

"The people of King Jin and his wife, they deceive people too much, we can't let them bully them like this in vain, during this period of time in the cold palace, I think about it, or because our status is not enough.

If you ascend to the throne, how dare they do this? When the time comes, let them kneel, and they will not dare to lie on their stomachs. ”

King An heard what Queen Jiang meant, and as Yun'er said, he also asked him to compete for this big position.

He already had the intention of competing for the big position, and now everyone around him also has this meaning, and suddenly, his blood also boiled.

"The mother and the son coincide, but I don't know what good ideas the mother has?"

Empress Jiang thought that he would hesitate, and thought of words of persuasion, but she didn't expect him to be so cheerful and positive, and immediately grabbed King An's arm and said,

"Mother has a plan here, if you do what I say, it will be fine, and the chances of success are also very high."

"During this time, you stayed in the palace, and you were very peaceful.

That little wild seed from the Jin Palace's mansion has come into the palace, you know? You go to him and put on a good brother's image. Please your father, and then ask him for the position of the crown prince. ”

"This ...... Is this possible? King An was stunned, he thought that the queen had a good idea, but he didn't expect it to be this.

He offended the people of the Jin Palace's mansion from top to bottom, not to mention that when he was in the paddock, the title of the chief envoy who poisoned the princess of Jin was still buckled on his head.

At this time, he went to please Xiao Xi's little brat, and everyone saw that there was a problem.

Empress Jiang's gaze gradually deepened as she watched him, revealing a hint of dazzling light, which made people shudder,

"In the past, it didn't work, but now, isn't there something wrong with your body? They can't imagine that you are like this and still want to take the big position, they will inevitably lower their guard against you, and you will cry a little more pitifully.

Nothing is impossible.

Besides, even if it doesn't work, won't you force it to happen? ”

In the end, these words burst out from between Queen Jiang's teeth, word by word.

King An had never seen her like this, and he was stunned for a while, but he saw Queen Jiang take out a small porcelain bottle the length of her thumb from her sleeve, stuff it into King An's hand, and let him hold it tightly.

"Now that Xiao Ye Seed of the Jin Palace, he has just entered the palace, and he will definitely be in chaos for two days, you will enter the palace, with the help of that Xiao Ye Seed, God unknowingly let the emperor make a will, there is a will in hand, you want to be on the throne or be the prince, you can do it.

Moreover, you don't have to take responsibility, it's all on that little wild seed. ”

Empress Jiang's words were low and clear, like the water droplets in the ancient pool, they kept echoing and expanding in King An's ears, and he held the small porcelain bottle tightly, trembling slightly, and couldn't tell whether he was scared or excited.

He can do whatever he wants? As long as the contents of this bottle are eaten by my father, then ......

Isn't this a king-killing?

"No, I don't dare." He seemed to have grabbed a hot charcoal and wanted to throw it out, but he was reluctant to warm it.

He swallowed and shook his head desperately.

"What are you afraid of?"

Empress Jiang looked at the empty cold palace, the cold wind blew, Qi Qi was cold, her tone became more and more urgent, "It's just a drug, what do you think?"

Just a little bit, put it on tea or spread it on pastries, and he will be confused for half an hour.

Sober up after half an hour, can't you get a copy of the edict for succession in half an hour?

It's just that it's over, even Zhang Chunzi, a miracle doctor, can't find out! ”

King An stood still and couldn't move.

Even if the emperor does not die, but his forgery of the holy decree is also a great crime of deceiving the king, and when the matter is revealed, he will definitely die.

He is afraid of death, he is very afraid, even if he is no longer a man, he can still enjoy the joy of fish and water.

Yun'er waited for him very well.

If he doesn't do anything and can continue to enjoy it, besides, he already has help, as long as he waits, the man says he can help him get to the top.

It's just a matter of time.

But Empress Jiang's words were like an iron hook, constantly hooking him to think about this road.

The desire to be able to sit in that position early and enjoy the power early, why did he have to wait for the future that he didn't know when?

It's just a drug, not a poison, and it won't cause the crime of killing the king.

Just let him issue an edict, not a threat of persecution, and it will not alarm anyone.

There won't be a trace left afterwards, and the doctor can't find out.

Even if it is found out, there is still Xiao Xi's little thing in the way.

As long as he takes out this edict when the time comes, he will be the next emperor.

That's right, he doesn't want to be a prince, he wants to do it, and he will be the emperor directly.

He was excited, and his eyes shone strangely.

The devil in his heart is about to move, he wants to seize the throne, he wants to be the emperor.

He wants to chop Xiao Yue into meat sauce and burn Xiao Xi to ashes, so that he will die without a place to be buried.

More importantly, he can make Yun'er change from a small girl to a queen mother in the world.

In the future, he will make her the queen mother.

At this time, the words Yun'er said to him before were thrown out of the clouds by him.

"You're right, Mother, I'll be able to get you out then." His voice trembled slightly, and he grabbed Empress Jiang's arm, and the corners of his lips drew a twisted arc.

Empress Jiang nodded with satisfaction, "This is a big matter, you must remember not to make a noise." ”

"There must be a lot of people around Xiao Xi's little slut, in order to avoid a lot of dreams at night, without further ado, you go to see your father and emperor now, and act when you have the opportunity."

Such urgency made King An hesitate again, "So fast? The child was not prepared at all. ”

Empress Jiang raised her hand and was about to slap it over, but she was restrained, she said softly, "Silly boy, it's best for you to go at this time, Xiao Xi has just entered the palace, and he must not have settled down yet, and the Qiankun Palace will definitely be very chaotic."

Your father is so fond of the wild species, he will inevitably send Chang Yuan around him to help, and it is easy to start at this time.

You remember, you must call Xiao Xi to meet your father together. ”

King An still wants to go out and ask Yun'er for an idea, he is now used to listening to Yun'er's idea in everything, and with Yun'er by his side, he is not afraid of anything.

Empress Jiang is still urging him to go to the emperor quickly, King An is ruthless, and when he gets the edict, he can go to Yun'er to ask for credit.

She must be very happy to be the queen.

……

In the Qiankun Palace, the emperor was holding Xu'er's hand and watching the palace people move and lift.

Xiao Yue stood behind the two.

The emperor glanced at Xu'er on the side, and the more Xu'er grew up, the better he became, the more he looked down on his children.

He couldn't tell what he was thinking, and he had to let Xu'er enter the palace.

He had already observed his three children, and none of them would be able to be Mingjun in the future.

He has never forgotten that he is in charge of the Lin family, and he can't have a trace of wanton behavior, the consequence of that will be to bring unwarranted disasters to the society and the people, and the party will run rampant, so that the traitors will have a chance to take advantage of it.

Therefore, he once taught King An, the eldest son, to death, but the harvest was not good.

He gave up.

"Your Majesty, King An came over and invited An to come."

A little eunuch came in to report it.

The emperor frowned without a trace, lowered his head and smiled at Xu'er, who was looking at him, "No." ”

The little eunuch had a difficult look on his face and said, "King An said that he has figured out a lot of things in the palace recently, and he wants to talk to the emperor about something." ”

Figured it out a lot? The emperor had a slight sneer on his face, what good thing could he think of?

He didn't mind hearing it, though.

When Xu Er entered the palace today, he was in a good mood.

He will carefully teach Xu'er in the future, anyway, he is still young, and he can wait until Xu'er grows up, and no matter who sits on the throne of Dongli at that time, Xu'er must be able to have the strength to restrain him.

Thinking of this, his expression unconsciously relaxed.

As soon as he thought that the country would not be ruined in his hands, his heart was relaxed.

When King An walked into the main hall, what he saw was the emperor's lips slightly raised, and he looked thoughtful.

Xiao Yue's father and son stood beside the emperor and were talking about something.

King An tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart, he didn't need to do anything, Xiao Xi was already by the emperor's side, he knelt down and bowed,

"The child came to greet the emperor."

The emperor waved his hand, "Get up." ”

King An stood up, raised his eyes and saw that the side hall was busy, and the palace people were coming in and out, it seemed that what his mother said was true, the emperor was indeed too good to Xiao Xi.

He stepped forward and walked to Xu'er's side, and said to Xiao Yue sincerely,

"Uncle Jiuwang, in the past, Rui'er was ignorant, and he listened to the provocation of the traitor, so he misunderstood Uncle Jiuwang, during this time, my nephew figured it out, and I won't do it again in the future, and I hope that Uncle Jiuwang can forgive my nephew for being young and ignorant."

After speaking, he reached out again and wanted to touch Xu'er's head, but Xu'er looked at him vigilantly and turned his head away when he raised his hand.

King An coughed embarrassedly and said to Xu'er,

"It's a mess here, and the air is not good, Brother Rui will take you outside for a walk."
