Chapter 62: Chu Qing's resignation
"The Empress Dowager is wise." Yu Xi hurriedly said.
"I am the empress dowager of a country, and I am a mother, the eldest son went early, and now the most afraid thing is that the younger son will be hurt by which woman."
It's obvious that there's something in the words. Yu Xi couldn't sit still when she heard this, as if she wanted to deceive Feng Yiyang and hurt Feng Yiyang's heart!
"What the Empress Dowager said is extremely true, but a wonderful person like King Jing is unparalleled in the world, it is difficult for him not to hurt others, how can others hurt him." Yu Xi said with relief, her mind was full of Feng Yiyang's appearance of being a scoundrel to her.
"You don't know, Yiyang is very simple. I hope most that he can find a woman with the same simple mind to spend his life with," the Queen Mother sighed.
Simplicity? Which simple man was a teenager with hundreds of thousands of imperial forest soldiers on the side of the Qing monarch and went to Beijing in blood? What simple man can play such a big game of chess and turn the prime minister of the enemy country into a pawn?
And what simple man drills into everyone's beautiful boudoir late at night, hugging others like this and that?
Yu Xi's face was a little hot when he thought about it, and hurriedly changed the topic.
"Don't worry, Queen Mother, Prince Jing will definitely meet an equally simple woman and won't hurt him." After saying this, Yu Xi was also sullen in his heart, and quickly changed his head, "I don't know why the Queen Mother let me enter the palace?" ”
The Queen Mother saw that she didn't want to say more, so she was no longer reluctant. She took out a scroll with some old ones from a box and handed it to Yu Xi.
Yu Xi unfolded it cautiously, and saw the legendary fox fairy concubine, Chu Qingci.
The outfit is slightly different from the wide robe and big sleeves of ordinary Fengguo women, but it is not the dress of a tanned woman. She wore a black dress with narrow sleeves and short beats, and the bottom was actually the black legging breeches worn by a man who rode and archery, and she was covered with a red fox fur coat, which was very heroic.
Dressed so heroically, but looking at her face with the coquettishness of a little girl, with a smile in her peach blossom eyes, if Yu Xi is a good girl who is sensible and reasonable, she is like a little princess who has been spoiled. Yu Xi looked at this dress, and suddenly remembered the teenage Guo Xianglai in the Yang Mi version of the TV series "The Condor Heroes" he watched.
Moreover, it is similar to himself, but it is exactly the same as his mother. She can't convince herself that there are people in the world who look alike.
Yu Xi stared at the painting and was silent for a long time. Is this why Feng Yiyang approached her? Because she is like the woman whom the emperor loved? Because that woman's relationship with the Feng family is not trivial?
"Yiyang said that you want to see the portrait of Chu Qingci, so the mourning family brought it to his palace." The Empress Dowager looked at her and smiled.
"It's better for the mourning family to give you a chance to ask the mourning family three questions." If there is a son, there must be a mother, and the empress dowager is also a narrow character, she wants to know what Yu Xi thinks, and she doesn't ask her personally, but gives her the opportunity to ask herself.
Yu Xi just looked at the portrait and was silent.
Half a pillar of incense time passed, and then he spoke: "How did Chu Qingci die?" Or rather, how did he fake his death? ”
"The mourning family used their connections and begged for fake death medicine. After eating, breathing stops, the heart stops, the pulse is closed, and the body temperature also decreases. ”
Then put it in the wine and let Chu Qingci drink it. She had a special identity, so she couldn't be buried in the imperial mausoleum, so she arranged a few eunuchs and threw her into a mass grave.
When I woke up a few days later, I had a new identity.
The outside world thought that the emperor had found out her details before giving her death, but they didn't know that she exposed it herself.
After faking her death, Chu Qingci used her new identity to go to Mo Nan to open a tavern as a proprietress hostess, but found that her family did not receive preferential treatment because of her "vain death", but because the royal family was afraid that Shun Teng would find out that the entire spy organization that Tanran had planted in Feng Kingdom, she was killed.
So, she rebelled, personally brought out the ears and eyes of Tanran in Fengguo, and disguised herself as a man and followed the emperor to directly fight Tanran, and took the first title of Emperor Tanran.
"Chu Qingci is Zhu Yan, and he is my mother."
Yu Xi finally understood why her mother didn't have any relatives in Fengguo, and she didn't have a grandmother's house to go to since she was a child.
"Creation makes people." The Empress Dowager was full of emotion, "I can't bear to really watch that child die, but I know my son too well." Yichen is so infatuated, she is dead, and Yichen is afraid that even the emperor will not be able to do it. ”
Yichen is the name of the emperor.
"It's just that I didn't expect that Tanran would be wiped out because her identity was exposed."
In stark contrast to the benevolence of the Fengguo royal family and the viciousness of the tanran royal family, Yu Xi understood her mother's choice.
"But I'm not the child of the emperor, I have the same mark as my father." Yu Xi said. The mole on the bridge of her nose is exactly the same as Gong Xun.
"Of course." When the Empress Dowager talked about Chu Qingci, she suddenly had some tears in her eyes.
Yu Xi even burst into tears.
The Empress Dowager said that she did not know the story of Chu Qingci and the palace prime minister, but only knew that Yu Xi was indeed born to Chu Qingci and the palace prime minister.
The two sat and talked for a while, and before they knew it, the day had passed.
In the end, Yu Xi didn't ask the third question.
"When I think of a third question, can I ask you again?" She asked.
"Child, enter the palace at any time." The Empress Dowager only said.
She is not like the empress dowager who is a mother in the world, but more like an old mother who protects her son.
She seemed to be afraid that Yu Xi would affect Feng Yiyang's emotions, and she had no choice but to warn her. She didn't want her to have anything to do with Feng Yiyang, but she couldn't afford her in her bones.
If it weren't for the kindness of the woman back then who saved Chu Qingci's life, how could Feng Guo and Tanran win the battle. Chu Qing's words were wrong, but he was also kind to Fengguo.
On the way back, Yu Xi felt that his brain was about to explode. The mother who I always thought was a lowly mother turned out to be an agent who was placed in Fengguo, and she was so capable, and her identity was exposed, so that the queen mother and emperor of Fengguo at that time were willing to hide from the sky and protect her?
And even so, the mother was able to give birth to her with the father? Did my mother ever love the emperor? Have you ever loved your father? Both of these people loved their mothers.
