Chapter 51: Adopted as a Righteous Son
Nowadays, the court is ostensibly divided into three factions, the regent faction, the auxiliary monarch faction and the royalist faction, in fact, in the final analysis, they are two factions, because the Grand Duke Qihuai has no 'selfishness' and only wants to assist the king, so his faction can also be called the royalist faction. In addition to them, the royalists also have the first emperor and the people left behind by the filial piety prince, as well as my former descendant - interests first, if something happens to Run, I, the empress dowager, will also suffer. As for the regent faction, their purpose from beginning to end is to support Qi Min as the emperor, although their purpose has not yet been clearly revealed, but one day they will 'show' their true colors.
When Qi Huai made my request in the court, the royalists were naturally very happy, while the regent faction was very opposed except for Qi Min who remained silent! Of course, they all regarded Yuan Xi as the little master in the future! If Yuan Xi was adopted by me, then Qi Min would have to be subject to me.
It is said that the two factions of the morning dynasty quarreled so much that their faces were red and their necks were thick, and they did not come to a conclusion!
The person who supported me said: "The Empress Dowager has only one princess under her knees, and the regent Shizi has been with the Empress Dowager since he was a child, and now he is studying in the palace, and he and the princess go to Penglai Mountain for summer vacation. In the future, the eldest princess will get married, and the prince will be able to accompany the queen mother to relieve her loneliness. ”
And those who oppose me have this view: "The Empress Dowager is not empty on her knees, and there has never been a precedent for the Empress Dowager to adopt a righteous son in this dynasty. Adopting a righteous son, then this child has also become the adopted son of the first emperor?
Qi Huai told me afterwards and said: "The two gangs are arguing very much, I think if the fifteenth brother does not personally nod his head, I am afraid this matter will be more tricky." ”
I said, "I know that this matter will not be so easy, otherwise I would have made a will in the name of the Empress Dowager! But if I make a will, he will have to obey it, and if he does not obey it, he will resist the decree, and then not only will he have a reputation for being disloyal and unfilial, but I will not be able to do it!"
Qi Huai sighed: "I know, you don't want to tear your face with him." In this way, I will go to find out the tone of the fifteenth brother and see what he thinks, if he is willing to be by your side for the sake of all-in-one, it would be better. ”
As soon as the words fell, Bai 'Lu' came in and said, "The Empress Dowager, the regent asks to see you." ”
I glanced at Qi Huai and said, "Please let him in!"
Qi Min walked in, saw me and Qi Huai sitting together, his eyes darkened, and he said meaninglessly: "The Eighth Emperor Brother is always one step faster than the younger brother." Then he saluted, and then said: "Since the Empress Dowager likes Yuan Xi, it is a blessing for Yuan Xi and Weichen to keep him in the palace." ”
I smiled and asked, "So, are you willing to keep Yuan Xi in the palace as the adopted son of the mourning family?"
He also smiled and said, "As long as you are happy, what can't you!"
"Good!" I looked at him with a smile, "The regent is worthy of being a minister of the humerus, and he has wronged the prince and the princess in order to show his loyalty." Fortunately, there are still two 'daughters' in the house, but unfortunately their biological mothers are too low, otherwise it would be good to be crowned a county lord. In this way, why don't you make the decision of the mourning family and marry a side concubine for the regent?"
Qi Min's face changed several times, his eyes suddenly became cold, he looked at me, looked at Qi Huai again, and said with a smile: "There are already beautiful wives and concubines in Weichen's mansion, so I don't worry about the Queen Mother, but there is only one princess in the family of the Eighth Emperor Brother, and the princess has no children so far, you should care more! Weichen still has to go to the diligent government affairs building, and retire first!"
As soon as he left, Qi Huai also got up and said, "Weichen also retired first." ”
"Teacher, please wait a minute. I waved my hand back and walked up to him, thought about it, and said, "Actually, what he just said...... It's not like I haven't thought about it. Teacher, since you have already married Miss Ming, why bother...... It's a little unfair to her. ”
Qi Huai smiled and shook his head, "If I really treat her as my wife, it will be unfair to her." ”
I was stunned, but after thinking about it, I also understood: he didn't love her, so he could only marry her as a princess, but he couldn't really treat her as a wife. If you force it, you will only hurt each other.
It's as if I was thinking about Qiheng in my heart, how could I possibly accept Qi's mercy.
I smiled and said, "Then, wait until the place in your heart is empty, and then treat her as your wife!"
He smiled and nodded, and stepped out. But I am still 'confused': how long does it take to forget someone?
In the afternoon, I watched Run's nap, and Bai 'Lu' hurriedly came and said in my ear: "The Empress Dowager, the princess regent is crying outside." ”
I frowned in displeasure and said in a deep voice, "What is she crying for?"
Bai 'Lu' said: "She...... She begs you to give her back the son. ”
I snorted coldly and said, "Let her go back!" This matter has been agreed upon by the Mourning family and the regent, and it is not something that she can change at will as a 'woman' Taoist family. ”
Bai 'Lu' should go down to persuade her, but I didn't want her to come back to restore her life, so I heard Gao shouting outside: "Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, Concubine Please return Yuan Xi to your concubine! Concubine beg! Concubine only has Yuan Xi's son!"
I looked at Run's frowning uneasily, and quickly patted it a few times, signaling Ru Mu to coax. Got up and walked quickly outside, Bai 'Lu' was admonishing something, but Gao was unmoved, still looking at the hall and crying loudly.
I frowned and walked to the 'door', Gao knelt at the bottom of the steps, saw me come out and knelt forward a few steps, begging: "The Empress Dowager ......"
"The emperor is taking a lunch break, what kind of body are you making such a noise!" I interrupted her, "You didn't listen to the mourning family when they told you to go back, didn't you take the mourning family in your eyes?"
"The concubine doesn't dare, the concubine just ...... I just want to beg you to return Yuan Xi to the concubine, the concubine really can't live without Yuan Xi!" she cried.
I said, "The mourning family understands your feelings as a 'mother', but the mourning family can't promise you. Besides, the regent has no objection to this matter, and the princess has come like this, can the regent know?"
Gao lowered his head, no need for her to say, Qi Min must not know.
So I said meaningfully, "You better go back, and if the regent comes to the mourning house to ask for someone, I am afraid that there will be a rift between you and your husband." ”
Gao gritted his teeth and sobbed silently.
In the distance, Enlightenment strode towards me, and as soon as he came, he asked me for his sins.
I smiled coldly: "The regent knows the movements of the Nanxun Palace, and the regent knows it really quickly! Princess, don't you worry about it now, right? Not only the mourning family and Yuan Xi, but even the emperor's every move, the regent is clear!"
Gao Shi looked up at me in surprise, then at Qi Min, and fainted.
