Chapter 008: The ruthlessness of men
When Meng Qing returned to Luanfeng Palace, Yi Mo rushed back out of breath.
"The king of tranquility is out of ...... Expedition ......"
Meng Qing looked at her playfully: "Watching King An Ning go on the expedition to tire you like this?" I don't know if I thought you were going on a campaign. ”
The palace people around them didn't hold back their laughter and laughed out loud, and they were afraid that the queen would be powerful and hurriedly stopped.
Yimo blushed suddenly, "Niangniang...... It was the people of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who made a stumbling block for slaves and maids. ”
Meng Qing looked at her annoyed but smug look and knew that it was done: "And then you took out your majesty?" ”
"Niangniang is so powerful, as soon as she guessed, the slave maid directly lifted the table of the Internal Affairs Office and told them that they couldn't do it, and the queen mother picked off their dog's head!"
"Can you be tired like this when you lift the table?" Meng raised his eyebrows lightly, took the handkerchief handed by the palace man and wiped the sweat on his forehead.
"They gave the bricks repaired in the West Palace to the maidservant, saying that there were not enough manpower, and the slave maid had to move it by herself...... "She is still too stupid and embarrassed the mother."
Meng Qing sighed lightly in her heart, this girl still has to be trained, and it is difficult for this Queen Meng to not establish any majesty for herself in the palace.
"Okay, go drink slowly." She's going to have to change it, too.
"Xie Niangniang is compassionate."
Dream light entered the dormitory to change clothes, this time is not suitable for bathing.
Habitually glancing at the beams, the gray roof was empty, and the little one still didn't come.
Today, not only Yimo, but the palace people she met when she came back from the imperial garden were all talking about King Anning's expedition, and some memories flashed in Mengqing's mind, Queen Meng seemed to be very afraid of this Anning King, and she didn't even have a close-up appearance in her mind.
It is rumored that King An Ning is handsome but fierce as a ghost, has a tyrannical temperament, is accustomed to tearing people apart with his bare hands, and every time he goes out on an expedition, he frightens the enemy army to flee in a hurry, and has never lost a battle.
Thinking of the people I met in the afternoon, some of them were not right, the emperor had a total of three brothers alive, one of his mother's compatriots was this King Anning, and the other was King Jing, who was spared because of his mother's bad background and failed to participate in the battle for the crown prince.
The uncomfortable taste in his stomach came up again, and Dream gently leaned on the coffee table and retched.
This Aunt Qiu seemed to have expected it, and suddenly pushed the door in, and took another bowl of medicine in her hand, as if she was completely ignoring her performance these days.
"Niangniang, if you change the prescription for this medicine today, it won't be so bitter."
Probably because of pregnancy, Mengqing's taste is many times more sensitive than ordinary people, especially for those inappropriate items, probably this is the ability given by God to pregnant women to protect themselves.
Smelling the smell of the decoction, she dared to conclude that there were still those blood-breaking menstrual medicines inside, so that the hospital knew that she was pregnant? Does the emperor know?
If the emperor knew, he would have connived at others to attack Empress Meng, or the person who would have taken care of the flesh and blood in his belly would be the emperor at all!
Thinking about it carefully, this body has definitely not done anything to be sorry for the royal family, and there is no possibility that the emperor will discredit him.
Meng Qing couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, but more of a heartache for the dead Empress Meng, that kind of deep love for the emperor, even if the soul was changed, did not dissipate from this body.
Hehe, men are so ruthless when they turn their faces!
"Aunt Qiu." Dream whispered softly, "Are you still loyal to me?" ”
Aunt Qiu was stunned for a moment, "Niangniang, you ...... What do you say, the slave is not loyal to whom you are loyal, you are a slave and a slave to underestimate ......"
Meng's soft voice was as sudden as ice: "Since Aunt Qiu is loyal to the palace, let's drink this bowl of medicine." ”
Aunt Qiu was stunned, "Niangniang, this is the tonic prescribed to you by the Tai Hospital, how can the slave have this blessing." ”
"This palace rewarded you, Aunt Qiu has taken care of this palace for many years, and she has worked tirelessly, but now it's just a bowl of medicine, isn't it that the poor people in this palace can't even afford to drink a bowl of tonics?"
"...... This ......"
Dream stared at her lightly, his eyes as sharp as if he could shoot a needle.
Aunt Qiu's hands trembled a little, and she tried her best not to spill the bowl of medicine.
Dream got up lightly and came to her, snatched the medicine bowl and sent it to her mouth: "Drink!" ”
Trembling has swept over Aunt Qiu's body, she has served the queen mother for more than 20 years, but recently the queen mother's attitude towards her has completely changed, and her bright eyes are looking at herself fiercely, as if she has peeled off all her filth in front of her eyes.
She knelt on the ground with a puff, "Mother...... Don't force the slave, the slave won't say anything. ”
Mengqing smashed the medicine bowl with a "bang", and the hot medicine soup splashed all over the place, and some pieces of the porcelain bowl were directly pierced on Aunt Qiu's face.
She was so frightened that she didn't dare to move, and buried her head in the ground and wept bitterly.
Yimo heard the voice and ran in, "Niangniang......"
"Close the door and tell them that no one is allowed to come in." Where can Meng Jinyu not be able to deal with you, she is so vicious, "Say, who told you to do it?" ”
Aunt Qiu shook her head, "The slave can't say, the slave ......"
She picked up a piece of porcelain in her hand and swung it towards her neck.
"Stop her!"
The two of them lunged forward together, but it was already a step too late, and bright red blood gushed from her neck.
Meng lightly grabbed the handkerchief and pressed it on her neck, and shouted to Yimo: "Hurry up and ask the imperial doctor, quickly!" ”
"Slave and maid will go, slave and maid ......"
"Don't!" Aunt Qiu grabbed the corner of her clothes and shook her head at the queen mother, "Slave maid...... I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for you......"
"Who made you unable to even say dead?" Mengqing's more nervousness comes from this body, but think of Queen Meng's dependence on her, but this woman betrayed you!
Aunt Qiu's body slid heavily to the ground, and some pity was squeezed out of her frightened eyes.
"...... The slave and the maid can't live, listen to the slave and the maid...... If the mother wants to keep the back position, this child ...... I can't stay! ”
"Who is it? Aunt Qiu, you watched me grow up, did you watch me die? Mengqing pressed her wound desperately, "Do you think that even without this child, those people will let me live?" ”
Aunt Qiu seemed to suddenly understand something, suddenly grabbed the queen's hand, and tried her last breath to reveal the truth: "It's the emperor...... The Imperial ......"
Her gaze gradually drifted, and her chest poured outward with the death of the body, and the hand that grabbed the queen finally fell.
"Niangniang, Aunt Qiu...... He's dead. "Emo was afraid, and there was blood all over the place, and the bright red glare was dazzling.
Dream gets up lightly, Your Majesty? Oh, sure enough, it's him!
Thinking about it, she and Meng Jinyu are really connected by the same fate, one was murdered by her newlywed husband, and the other was poisoned by her husband, but she still has that man's evil seed in her stomach!
Thinking of this, Dream Light couldn't wait to immediately take out that cub from her stomach and crush it!
After a while, she got up slowly, not caring about the blood stains on her body, "Yimo, ask someone to carry her out and ask her family to take it, so she has served the palace for so many years." ”
"Slave...... The slave and the maid obeyed. ”
Yimo was frightened, she always suspected that the queen mother was pregnant, it turned out to be true, but the emperor turned out to be ...... actually wanted to kill the mother, the emperor was too ruthless.
A nurse died, and the insignificance in this deep palace was like a sneeze, and no one cared.
The palace people, who were accustomed to life and death, quickly cleaned up the dormitory spotlessly, and a wisp of agarwood was smoked, leaving no trace of blood.
Meng Qing firmly believes that the bowl of medicine is not just as simple as getting rid of the child, maybe it will be two lives, she just wants to take out the child again, and she will not trust people casually, otherwise Imperial Doctor Zhou will not run away.
The next day, she didn't care about the purple sand mud she had recovered, but wore formal clothes that matched her identity.
The noble phoenix fluttered her wings on her high hair, her raised eyebrows stretched into the sideburns, and her gentle cheeks were beautiful and sharp.
This is the first time since she came here that she has accompanied a group of eunuchs and palace maids, and she is sitting firmly in the palace with a phoenix carried by eight people.
By the pond, Concubine Jing was shocked to drop the fish food in her hand: "Got it, what ...... Who's that? ”
Looking at the noble pomp, he replied unconvincedly: "It should be the queen's mother, right?" Sitting on the phoenix must be the queen. ”
"It's the queen...... "Why didn't she know that the queen was so good-looking?"
Concubine Xian was coming out of the garden, and she walked opposite Mengqing, she was so unlucky when she could just go out for a walk.
Yi Mo took two steps forward and said sharply: "Don't you say hello when you see the queen?" ”
Concubine Xian looked at her twice in disbelief, queen? It's only been more than half a month, and the queen actually judged the two of them, she didn't know that the queen was so beautiful?
No! No one in this palace can be better looking than her, she is the most beautiful!
Meng lazily lifted her eyelids, "Since Concubine Xian doesn't understand the rules, then you can teach her how to bow to the palace." ”
Seeing this, Min Shu hurriedly shook Niangniang awake: "Niangniang, Uncle Guo can tell you, don't touch the queen's brow now." ”
Concubine Xian returned to her senses, swallowed that breath stiffly, folded her hands on her side, and blessed her body: "The concubine visits the queen, and the mother is blessed with Jin'an." ”
"Get up."
Concubine Xian reluctantly got out of the way, watching a group of people pass in front of her, clearly distinguishing the difference between the concubine and the queen.
No matter how much she is favored, in the end, it is not to salute her, not to make way for her!
In the place where they passed, all the concubines and palace people were invited to bow down, so that the dream was light and really shook the authority of the ancient monarchy, no matter whether those people knelt on the ground sincerely or not, it was enough for the people in the high position to get temporary satisfaction.
It is temporary, because people's ambitions swell, and when they get used to what is in front of them, they will aspire to higher honors.
"Niangniang, the library has arrived."
The sedan chair fell to the ground, and Meng Qing retracted his thoughts, and quickly sobered himself up, what is there to worship in a ruthless high position.
Meng raised his eyes lightly and looked at the three gilded characters hanging on the high door, and the pen was vigorous and powerful.
"Mother, the slaves are not qualified to go in, so they can only wait outside." Remind with foam.
"No problem."
Meng glanced at the eunuch who wanted to stop him, pushed open the door of the library pavilion, and the long drag behind him slipped over the threshold and disappeared into a sea of books and books.
The three-meter-high shelves are piled with all kinds of books, and they are spotlessly clean.
Mengqing searched line by line according to the classification marks above, and finally, found the collection of medical scriptures in the innermost trip.
She is alone and in prison, and she can only rely on herself at this time.
Aunt Qiu's words she understood, if the child was taken away safely, the queen's throne would be safe now, but if the child was a month old, it would be her life that was taken away.
As for why the emperor didn't let the queen get pregnant, she didn't need to think about it anymore, it was just a means of power and government, and what she could do at the expense of a woman would definitely not cost soldiers.
