Chapter 163: Transformation (2)
The world is quite tolerant of men, and it is natural to take wives and concubines. is extremely harsh on women.
It is a commendable virtue for a man to be willing to keep his wife for a year before remarrying. When a woman dies her husband, she should keep the festival for the rest of her life. It is unchaste to remarry someone else.
When her husband was still alive, she shared a bed with another man and gave birth to a child...... It is even more unchaste.
This is also Queen Pei's gloomy and insoluble knot for many years.
Cheng Jinrong was quite friendly to the Six Princes yesterday, did he really not mind, or did he deliberately show her?
Empress Pei looked at Cheng Jinrong worriedly.
Cheng Jinrong smiled at Queen Pei.
Empress Pei's heart fell back to her chest steadily, and she whispered to the sixth prince: "This palace is much better now, you can study with peace of mind, and you don't have to worry about it all the time." ”
Suddenly, his attitude was much softer than before.
The sixth prince pressed the joy in his heart, and asked cautiously, "Can I stay and have dinner with the queen mother?" ”
Empress Pei nodded.
The sixth prince couldn't help but grin, and the joy in his eyes almost overflowed.
Cheng Jinrong looked at this scene, and his heart was slightly sour.
Empress Pei couldn't help herself, and the six princes were also innocent.
She has love for the six princes, and has the love of sisters and brothers whose blood is thicker than water. But she couldn't imagine how the six princes would react when they knew the truth in the future. When the time comes, will their siblings be free of estrangement, and will they be able to work together......
Everything is unknown.
Now, the most important thing is to cure Empress Pei's illness.
The six princes are still young and immature. After two years, the sixth prince is a little older, and then find a suitable time to tell him everything!
Cheng Jinrong sighed silently in his heart, and his face did not show half a point. When the six princes looked over happily, she smiled back.
……
Empress Pei was no longer in trouble, and Du Ti ordered Imperial Physician Zhou and Imperial Physician Li Cheng Jinrong to stay on duty in the Jiaofang Palace, and went to the Baohe Hall by herself.
Pingxi Hou led his troops out of Beijing and marched all the way, but he had not yet reached Shandong. The war report about the unrest of the people and bandits in Shandong was sent to the capital with a fief.
Looking at the battle report of the defeat of the garrison, Emperor Xuanhe Longyan was furious, and while issuing a holy decree to urge the Marquis of Pingxi to march, he summoned all the ministers to discuss the matter.
The civil officials and military generals who were deliberating were trembling under the wrath of Emperor Xuanhe and discussing countermeasures.
In fact, there are only two ways to discuss and discuss. The first is to continue to send troops to reinforce the troops, and the second is to ensure that the grain, grass, horses, weapons, and baggage are guaranteed.
Pingxi Hou led 30,000 soldiers and reached the halfway point. At this time, how many troops should be sent? Who will lead the troops?
The generals were not afraid of battle, and they vied with each other to fight.
Emperor Xuanhe's expression eased slightly, and he ordered a young military general in his thirties to lead 10,000 soldiers to reinforcements. The position of the main general of Pingxi Hou naturally remains unchanged.
Emperor Xuanhe then asked Liang Shangshu: "Liang Shangshu, the war is urgent, and the grain and grass may be supplied?" ”
The treasury is empty year after year, and there is a shortage of silver every year. Every time there is a war, Liang Shangshu can't wait to have a few more hands, where to get some silver.
But the Son of Heaven opened his mouth to ask, and Liang Shangshu didn't dare to say that the household had no money, so he gritted his teeth and responded: "The emperor can rest assured." Weichen returned to the household department and immediately summoned everyone in the household department to stay up all night to take inventory. It will never be short of food and grass for the soldiers. ”
Poor Liang Shangshu, the beads of sweat on the top of his head have slipped out of his official hat.
Emperor Xuanhe let Liang Shangshu go, and asked Wei Guogong again: "Wei Guogong, the weapons and war horses of the military department may be in time?" ”
Wei Guogong replied respectfully: "As long as the household department allocates silver, all kinds of weapons and war horses can be supplied." ”
Liang Shangshu: "......"
It's really poured eight lifetimes of blood mold before I made a terrible Hubu Shangshu!
……
Du Tidian waited outside the Baohe Hall for more than an hour, waiting for hunger, and did not wait for the summons.
This is a common occurrence in the palace. Du Tidian had long been accustomed to it, and waited silently in the side hall.
After waiting for another half an hour, a waiter finally came: "Lord Tidian, the emperor has summoned, please bring Lord Tidian into the palace with the servants." ”
Du Tidian followed the attendant into the Baohe Palace.
The civil and military generals have all withdrawn, and there are only Emperor Xuanhe and the eldest prince in the Baohe Palace, and there are more than a dozen imperial guards.
There are 1,000 imperial guards, and there are not many who actually accompany them every day. Only those who are favored and trusted by the Son of Heaven are qualified to stand in the closest place to the Son of Heaven.
Even Du Tidian was familiar with the two imperial guards on Emperor Xuanhe's side.
One is He Qi, and the other is Pei Zhang.
"Wechen has seen the emperor." Du Ti bowed.
Emperor Xuanhe was in a bad mood, there was no expression on his face, and he said lightly: "Don't be polite." ”
Du Tidian was very familiar with Emperor Xuanhe's uncertain temperament, and without saying a word of nonsense, he opened his mouth to report: "The queen's mother is no longer in serious trouble, and her heart disease has improved." Recuperate slowly, and over time, there may be a day of healing. ”
Emperor Xuanhe was a little surprised, and looked at Du Tidian: "The queen's heart disease has really improved?" ”
Over the years, he has always been a regular envoy to see Empress Pei. Empress Pei's illness is good and bad. Emperor Xuanhe occasionally summoned the envoys of the Standing Court to question, but the envoys of the Standing Court never dared to say that the queen could be cured.
Du Ti replied respectfully: "How dare Wei Chen talk nonsense about such a big thing." ”
Emperor Xuanhe's brows relaxed, and a smile flashed in his eyes: "Good!" Come and see the reward! ”
……
As soon as Emperor Xuanhe was in a good mood, he gave birth to the idea of going out to the Jiaofang Palace to take a look at Empress Pei, and ordered him to drive.
The eldest prince retired with interest, went out of the Baohe Palace, and went to the Zhongcui Palace.
When Concubine Zheng heard that her son was coming, her mood was gloomy all day, and she finally improved slightly. got up and welcomed the eldest prince into the bedroom, and the palace maids and servants who were waiting all withdrew.
There are only two mothers and sons in the dormitory.
"Mother," the eldest prince frowned and whispered, "Du Tidian came to report to his father today, saying that the queen's illness has improved. Careful care, over time, can be cured. When the father heard this, the dragon heart was overjoyed and immediately went to the Jiaofang Palace. ”
Emperor Zheng's beautiful face was distorted for a moment, and after a while, she sneered: "Pei Wanqing has been ill for many years. The envoy of the Standing Hospital did not cure Pei Wanqing's illness, but when Du Ti came, Pei Wanqing was mostly better. ”
"Your Father's ......"
Everyone knows that Emperor Xuanhe favors her, the imperial concubine, and only respects Queen Pei, the wife. It's been ten years since I've stayed in the Jiaofang Palace.
The real inside story is almost unknown.
In fact, it's not that Emperor Xuanhe doesn't want to stay overnight, but that Empress Pei is too indifferent and never invites pets. After giving birth to the six princes, she lingered on the sickbed. After a long time, Emperor Xuanhe also completely lost his mind to Empress Pei.
But now, as soon as Emperor Xuanhe heard that Empress Pei's condition had improved, he went to the Jiaofang Palace......
Emperor Zheng gritted her teeth, but didn't say the rest of the words, but said: "I will keep an eye on these harem matters, so don't worry about it." ”
