The letter is Juanxiu Xiaokai, the paper industry has been a little yellowed, this letter was written by the Qianlong Emperor's biological mother, the Empress Dowager Niu Colu.

I still remember that in the forty-first year of Qianlong, in late autumn, the queen mother was seriously ill, at that time, the queen mother was already a little in good spirits. Everyone thought that it was a good recuperation, but they didn't expect her to say that she was about to die soon, and she wanted to talk to the emperor alone.

After everyone withdrew, the Queen Mother stretched out her hand to grab the emperor.

Qianlong's heart moved, and he hurriedly covered her hand, "Huang Eniang." ”

The Queen Mother was drooping and old, full of gorgeous hair, looking at her son who was old in the armor, and felt from her heart.

"Emperor, how fast do you say this time flies......"

With a sigh, Qianlong's heart was sour, since he ascended the throne, everything has been based on the emperor's mother's heart, and it can be regarded as letting the emperor's mother spend his old age in peace. To tell the truth, even though he was physically and mentally exhausted every day, he never thought about life and death, but from the time when Huang Eniang was seriously ill, he suddenly became worried, and it seemed that he was getting closer and closer to such a situation. But what if it does come to this?

"E-Niang has been in this palace all her life, she is used to seeing too many people and things, she has been honored and disgraced for a lifetime, and she was born with you, and she is worthy of the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty." What a strong woman the queen mother is, what a smart woman she is, she has been a royal daughter-in-law all her life, but she still has an identity, she is still the daughter of Niu Colu. The glory of the family has been all on her for decades, but once she leaves this world, she has no woman who can immediately renew her grace, which is really helpless.

The Queen Mother knows her son best, he is suspicious and suspicious, but he also attaches the most importance to "providence", and the Niu Colu clan can only use his life to win the "imperial grace that will not fade" once.

"Huang Eniang, you will definitely be fine. The doctor also saw it, and said that it was all right, and you should be relieved! Qianlong sat in front of the bed and smiled.

"The mourning family knows their own body, and when they mention this breath, they don't worry about you, you said that the mourning family will not be able to see you when they leave......" The queen mother's nose was sour, her eyes were jerky, and tears flowed down.

"The Emperor's Mother......"

"You will be glorious for the mourning family for a lifetime, speaking of which, the mourning family will not live in vain in this life."

Qianlong wiped away the tears from the corners of the emperor's eyes, his throat was blocked, and he couldn't say a word.

The Queen Mother tried to sit up straight with her last strength, but her arms were sore, and she couldn't lift herself when she was so weak and tired.

The Queen Mother settled down, took a deep breath, and said, "People are about to die, and their words are also good, although the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty are not allowed to interfere in politics in the harem, but the mourning family has to entrust you with one thing in the end!" ”

Qianlong was sad, and bowed his head and said, "Son, listen......"

"E-Niang has always known that there are no subjects in the world who do not praise you, that is because you are intelligent, and you are the destiny of heaven, the true son of heaven. But at present, the qualifications of the prince to be worthy of the big position are very small. Now that you are also a person who knows the age of the destiny of heaven, E-Niang is worried about your body......"

Qianlong, who has always disliked the politics of the harem, trembled when he heard Eniang's "hospice care", and it was his Eniang after all. couldn't help but sigh, "E-niang, my son understands-" Qianlong paused for a moment and replied, "There is one thing that my son also wants to ask E-niang to have an idea." ”

"Eniang, yesterday, Qin Tianjian entered the palace at night and told me something." Qianlong glanced at Eniang, and then said: "They reported that they found that the crape myrtle star suddenly brightened, and found that a small star appeared at the foot of the west side. It should be the substar who shelters Ziwei Star, and my son found someone to check, and a woman happened to be born yesterday! ”

The Queen Mother cheered up and said weakly, "Which girl?" ”

"E-Niang's family, Niu Colu. Lady Gong Allah. Qianlong's words woke up the Queen Mother.

When she heard her son say this, the Queen Mother suddenly became angry and couldn't help coughing, and her already weak body looked even thinner.

"Don't worry...... Isn't that a good thing? Qianlong hurriedly stepped forward to stroke his back.

"A good thing? If this is another woman, E-Niang must be happy and happy, and immediately announce the canonization. But if this is a woman of the Niu Colu clan, some people will inevitably speculate that it is Eniang's favored harem, which is really worrying...... cough cough cough ......"

Qianlong looked relaxed and said: "E-Niang is a lot of heart, the Niu Colu clan has been a family of highly decorated generals since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, and has always had a pivotal position in the harem. Qintian monitors people with such profound blessings, and it is also a blessing for the Qing Dynasty......"

The Queen Mother burst into tears, frowned and said: "If the emperor really wants to reuse this woman, he must also promise Eniang one thing!" ”

"E-niang, please speak."

The Queen Mother looked at him fixedly, and said: "There must be no overprotection of this woman before marriage, if she is really the wife of the prince given by the mandate of heaven, she will have to go through a lot of hardships and taste all the hardships, so that she can experience the heart and know how to cherish and be grateful for everything." If it is unfortunate to grow into a provoke of right and wrong, arrogant and domineering, according to the will of Eniang, it will be removed, so as to avoid future troubles! ”

After saying such thoughts, the tension between Qianlong's eyebrows was completely relaxed, and he said with a lot of feelings: "It's still Eniang's thoughtfulness, my son must keep it in mind!" ”

That night, the Queen Mother was bedridden and only ate a little water and rice, and the imperial doctor shook her head and sighed after diagnosis, and kowtowed to ask for sin. Qianlong knew that his mother's time was running out. In addition to the sadness, he was relieved about what Qin Tianjian had done, thinking that E-Niang had not planned this matter.

Then from the eunuch of Cining Palace, he went out and found a letter to the Yellow Flag Dutong Nine Masters.

The letter reads:

"I am a family of Niu Cobalt, and I have a woman as a phoenix. Qin Tianjian watched the sky at night, and measured that the western suburbs were blessed with the arrival of the star of wisdom, and throughout the years, the crape myrtle star became brighter and brighter. Taste it, found that it is the daughter of Niu Co Lu Gong Allah, it is inevitable that the emperor's grace is vast, provoke its arrogance, and specially entrust the yellow flag to take care of it. The century-old foundation of the royal family needs to be established by the prince, if it is the daughter of the wise and filial piety, she can be the wife of the prince and assist from the side. The pride of the sky, love is difficult to balance the Quartet, if this woman is not favored, in order to ensure the longevity of the Qing Dynasty, it must be safe! ”

The words on the letter are true, there is no excess, after the emperor's suspicion is lifted, he feels that there is a negative mother's affection, so he transcribes a copy and puts it in the heart palace to express comfort. After that, he invited An Cining Palace every day until the death of the Queen Mother.

Now sixteen years have passed, Qianlong has sent close guards to inquire, Niu Colu's daughter is named Jingwen, with a modest temperament, perseverance and courage, filial piety and virtuousness, quite the demeanor of the queen of filial piety and virtue, and because of this, after determining Yongyan as the prince, Qianlong issued an order to point to Yongyan as the side blessing.

This year's winter is a little warmer, and it seems that even the mood is very good.

People's hearts are unpredictable, and everyone will have their own calculations. Even if he is the son of heaven, the mother and son are connected, but they are just a subsidiary of this supreme imperial power, enjoying the honor above ten thousand people, and they have to taste the loneliness of being unaccompanied, which may be the price of getting the imperial power.

Qianlong is almost in his old age, and every time he thinks about it, he still can't help but sigh, I don't know if Yongyan can really support the Qing Dynasty......

Looking up at the portrait of the woman on the wall, a trace of tenderness flowed from Qianlong's eyes, as if he was speaking to her: "Do you think I'm doing this right?" After so many years in power, why has no one said anything considerate? I've been thinking about you lately, but I wonder how you're doing? ”

The painting shows a woman stroking flowers and standing, the corners of her skirt are flowing in the wind, the eyebrows are pure, the willow eyebrows and moon eyes, the autumn water is like it, or the appearance of his first sight......
