Chapter 732: Farewell
Empress Pei is here.
Cheng Jinrong's eyes flashed with complicated emotions, and he quickly disappeared from his eyes, slowly got up, and walked to the door to greet him.
Queen Pei soon appeared, and after staying up for so many days, Queen Pei became more and more haggard, and her spirit was good.
When he saw Queen Pei, Cheng Jinrong was about to bow his hand, but before he could bend down, Queen Pei reached out and grabbed Cheng Jinrong's arm, and said angrily: "You are injured and you are not lying on the bed, why did you run to the door?" ”
The tone is the same as before, still so intimate and gentle.
Cheng Jinrong looked up and saw familiar concern.
No matter how Queen Pei changes and what she becomes, in front of her, she will always be the mother who loves her wholeheartedly.
Cheng Jinrong's heart seemed to be stuffed with something, rising and sour.
Queen Pei looked at her daughter, and her heart was both happy and sour. She took Cheng Jinrong's hand and entered the room and sat down, the palace people had already withdrawn from the door and closed the door tightly.
"Jinrong, this palace hasn't come to see you these days, I'm really sorry for you." Empress Pei showed a look of guilt in her eyes, and sighed in a low voice: "That day, Xiao Liu's life was hanging by a thread, the situation in the palace was unstable, and people's hearts were even more restless. This palace can only stay by Xiaoliu's side, and there is no clone to accompany you. ”
"The only person who can be trusted by this palace is He Qi. Therefore, He Qi has been left by the palace, and with him guarding Xiaoliu, the palace can feel at ease. It's a colt, and Bengong doesn't dare to believe him all. ”
"The colt is good at everything, but the heart is too soft."
"The palace ordered him to guard the prison, he invited a medicine boy for the Zheng family, and he came to the palace for the matter of the four princes."
Empress Pei was vaguely dissatisfied in her tone.
The fourth prince had his right wrist broken, bleeding profusely, and had a high fever that did not go away. Just died in the prison, a hundred. But Zhu Qijue came to report eventfully.
In this way, she can't be regarded as ignorant, so she has to act like a pretentious doctor to save the four princes.
Cheng Jinrong didn't make a sound, and listened quietly.
What Queen Pei was thinking in her heart, she couldn't let the people around her know at all. After holding it for many days, at this time, facing Cheng Jinrong, he poured out in one go: "Concubine Wei Xian's death was expected in this palace. Wang Zhaorong and Zhao Jieyu's courage was unexpected. ”
Cheng Jinrong finally opened his mouth: "I heard that before the two mothers committed suicide, they wrote a desperate letter. ”
Empress Pei nodded slightly: "This palace doesn't have the heart to be ruthless to that extent." The seven princes and the eight princes are honest and peaceful, and the palace will take good care of them as they grow up. ”
"Of course, the premise is that the two of them have to be really honest. If they have resentment or dissent, I will never be merciful to the tiger. ”
In the past, Empress Pei would never have said such cold and hard words.
Now, these words come out of the mouth quite naturally.
Cheng Jinrong has long been mentally prepared for Queen Pei's changes. However, the moment I heard what I saw with my own ears, my heart was still tight: "Niangniang......"
Empress Pei looked at Cheng Jinrong.
Cheng Jinrong's words came to his lips, and naturally became: "This is long overdue." ”
A trace of bitterness flashed in Queen Pei's eyes, and she said in a low voice: "Yes, you and Xiaoliu were injured together, and I woke up." In this palace, there is no room for soft-heartedness and kindness. I should have seen it a long time ago. ”
"In the past, it was the emperor who protected the palace and Xiaoliu. Now, the main palace is changing, and after this incident, Xiaoliu will also change. ”
"However, no matter when and where you go, this palace will always be your mother, and the person who loves you the most. That will never change. ”
Cheng Jinrong's eyes were hot, and his voice trembled slightly: "I understand Niangniang's intentions." ”
Empress Pei's eyes were also red, but she was able to restrain herself and no longer shed tears: "Jinrong, your injuries should be slowly recuperated." The situation in the palace is complicated, which is not conducive to recuperation. After some time, you will leave the palace and return home! ”
Cheng Jinrong forced the heat in his eyes back, and responded softly: "Okay." Even if I don't say it, I already have this idea. ”
She entered the palace for her mother.
Now, it was time for her to stay away.
Queen Pei held Cheng Jinrong's hand hard and did not make a sound for a long time.
……
Not long after, a knock broke the silence in the room.
Empress Pei came back to her senses, and Cheng Jinrong also restrained all her expressions.
A palace maid pushed the door in and reported respectfully: "Empress Qiyu, Duke Wei Guo, Duke Jin Guogong and several Shangshu lords ask to see His Royal Highness the Prince." Without Niangniang's consent, Commander He did not let him go, and specially sent a slave to ask Niangniang, if you want to let a few adults see His Royal Highness the Prince? ”
Empress Pei's eyes flashed, and she stood up: "When the emperor was alive, no one dared to make a mistake. Now, a few of them have put the prince of this palace in their eyes. ”
"As soon as the prince's health improved, a few of them couldn't hold it back. Anyway, Hongu went to see them in person. ”
Then, he turned his head and glanced at Cheng Jinrong.
Cheng Jinrong also stood up: "I'm fine, I don't need to worry about it, go quickly!" And so that a few adults will not be anxious to wait. ”
Empress Pei sighed silently, nodded slightly, and left.
Cheng Jinrong watched Queen Pei's figure go away, and his heart was mixed.
In the midst of the turmoil, relief and happiness prevailed in the end.
The lord Shaoguo is suspicious, the courtiers' minds are floating, Queen Pei is not tougher, how can she shock the important ministers?
As long as Empress Pei can live well, it is enough. She shouldn't and couldn't ask for more.
……
An hour later, the palace maid beside Queen Pei was ordered to send some supplements, and "by the way" told Queen Pei about showing her phoenix power and driving away the ministers with a cold face.
“…… The slave was watching. The queen mother had a calm face and asked a few adults why they disturbed His Royal Highness the Prince's recuperation? also said that the adults kept saying that they were loyal, but in fact their minds were impure and unright, and they were bullying the weak and bullying the prince's youth. Several adults were accused by the queen's mother, and they were so ashamed that they couldn't raise their heads, and knelt down one by one to plead guilty. ”
The queen mother was furious, and then ordered them to get up, and let them meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was much better than before, and was helped to sit on the bed. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince opened his mouth and compensated for the mother's mother. Please take care of the mother's overthinking sake. ”
Several adults thanked Dade with gratitude, and quickly withdrew.
There are two mothers and sons, one singing white-faced and the other red-faced, and they cooperate very well.
Cheng Jinrong raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
We must not underestimate the wrestling between monarchs and ministers. If you can't firmly suppress the courtiers, you will ascend the throne and sit on the dragon chair, and you will be overtaken by the courtiers.
What's more, the six princes have not yet ascended the throne. The so-called improper name is not good, and it is inevitable that the courtiers want to try to "weigh".
Empress Pei and the crown prince worked together to finally maintain the balance of the situation.
