Chapter 70: Entering the Palace

"Uncle Huang, of course they're fine! Who said they died?!! Xiao Tiange was also dumbfounded, "You don't know it until now, do you?!! ”

Xiao Ruoruo's eyes rekindled hope, she almost staggered and fell into Xiao Tiange's arms, grabbed his shoulders with both hands, and asked eagerly, "What happened?" Tell me quickly! ”

The powerful hand strength made Xiao Tiange feel painful. He pulled Xiao Ruoruo's hand away with a bitter face, and hurriedly told her everything: "Here's the thing, yesterday morning, someone revealed that the emperor's uncle wanted to join forces with the envoys of the two countries to plot against the emperor's grandfather... Then the imperial grandfather was so angry that he fell ill on the spot! Before fainting, he ordered his father to put the emperor's uncle and you all in prison! ”

My father had no choice but to do it, but he had been investigating the truth! But just after noon, it was rumored that the emperor's grandfather was not sick, but poisoned! What is hateful is that the fourth uncle even bribed the palace maid to falsely accuse his father of being the one who poisoned him! Fortunately, the Queen Mother was aware of everything and returned her father's innocence. ”

"It was also the Queen Mother who overrode public opinion and saved the lives of the emperor's uncle and you. It's just that in order to block the mouth of the people, the Queen Mother can only give in and demote everyone except you to concubines, so that they will never be able to set foot in Kyoto City! ”

After listening, Xiao Ruoruo lowered her arms in a daze.

What does the Queen Mother mean by this? Why did all the people in Prince Gong's Mansion expel her and leave her alone? But she doesn't want to enter the palace, she wants to be with her father and mother!

Mama Sun, who had been standing on the side and had not spoken, spoke up at this time: "His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun, the county lord, the Queen Mother has been waiting in the Blessing Palace for a long time!" ”

"Oh yes, yes, yes! If we go! After that, Xiao Tiange pulled Xiao Ruoruo into the carriage. And the two who were running fast didn't see Grandma Sun frowning slightly behind them.

In the huge inner courtyard of the palace, except for the emperor who has the supreme imperial power, everyone else must walk in the palace! Unless, of course, the emperor grants the chariot. That's a great honor!

Therefore, their carriage naturally stopped when it reached the gate of the palace, and Xiao Ruoruo had to get out of the car and walk.

At this time, in the Buddhist hall of the Blessing Palace, there was tension.

"Ahem, do you have to go against your sons, queen mother?!" After resting for one night, Xiao Chuhong's body was still weak. But none of this compares to the anger in his heart that makes him uncomfortable! So he dragged the sick body over.

The Queen Mother turned a deaf ear and continued to recite Buddhist scriptures. Although the Sanskrit words that floated out of her mouth were obscure, it made Xiao Chuhong, who was extremely uncalm in his heart, squint his eyes and listened like a violent beast put away its claws!

The Bodhisattva enshrined in the niche wears a crown and a heavenly robe, with a solemn and graceful demeanor. With compassion on his face and a smile on his face, he seems to be able to forgive and purify all the sins of this world......

After a while, both of them opened their eyes.

"The mourning family is not trying to oppose you, but to save you!" The Queen Mother looked sad.

Xiao Chuhong, who had lost his anger, looked at her face, and didn't move away for a long time: "Erchen would like to hear about it!" ”

The Queen Mother shook her head with a wry smile, and slowly stood up from the futon: "I don't know if you remember, the person you liked to pestered the most when you were a child was your eldest brother!" Speaking of this, her eyes flashed with reminiscence, "At that time, your father was still alive, and he had not yet ascended the throne, and you and your eldest brother were still young. Once, when you secretly went up to a tree to dig a bird's nest, but accidentally fell off the tree, it was your eldest brother who used his body to make a meat pad for you, for which he also broke two ribs. Later, when your father found out about this, he wanted to punish you severely, but your eldest brother interceded for you with a sick body, so you hid. ”

As if thinking of this, the corners of Xiao Chuhong's lips were slightly hooked, and even his face softened a lot: "Yes!" At that time, my eldest brother persuaded me, and he said that he would get it for me, but I didn't want to, so I had to go up myself! But because of this, he was injured, lay in bed for several months, and even missed the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival he had been waiting for for a long time! But it really annoyed him for days! Ha ha! ”

The Queen Mother also chuckled: "Hehe, you didn't do less of this kind of thing when you were a child!" ”

Xiao Chuhong bowed.

"Later, when your father ascended the throne, the king of Yunnan was dissatisfied. In just a few days, he has gathered tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to push your father and emperor down! Your father ordered your brothers to go and destroy the rebels, but they never thought that you would be ambushed on the road! At that time, you were poisoned with arrows, and you were in the middle of the barren mountains and mountains, and in all kinds of danger, your eldest brother actually sucked poison with his mouth, which pulled you back from the ghost gate! Perhaps this matter is too heavy, the Queen Mother's voice is a little low, "There is still ......"

"Queen Mother, what the hell do you want to say?!" Xiao Chuhong suddenly interrupted, his expression quite complicated.

The Queen Mother was stunned when she heard this, and immediately lowered her head in confusion. She wanted to arouse the brotherhood in the emperor's heart, so as to persuade him to let them go. I didn't expect him to react so quickly!

But soon, she raised her head again, but her face was already calm: "The mourning family doesn't want to say anything, just tell you how good your brother is to you, and you can't even want your life for you!" ”

"Hahahaha! Could it be that if you are good to me, you can betray me, and you can secretly harbor the remnants of the previous dynasty?! ”

Suddenly, the beast's face turned hideous, and its fangs lit up again!

"It can't be!" The Queen Mother said categorically.

"Of course not!"

Before Xiao Chuhong could refute, a woman's crisp and slightly cold voice came from outside the door.

The two of them, who didn't have time to change their expressions, turned their heads to look together, and saw Xiao Ruoruo walking in, followed by Xiao Tiange, who was in a state of bewilderment.

"If you meet the Queen Mother, meet the Emperor!"

"Tiange meets the emperor's grandfather and the queen mother!"

After saluting together, Xiao Tiange retreated in a witty manner, and the room fell into silence.

The sun is just right outside, and the snow melts, forming drops of water falling from the eaves! The plum blossoms planted in the front yard of the Buddha Hall seem to know how to cherish the few warmth in this winter, and they have spread their petals. White, red, yellow, green, purple, more expensive, there are green calyx, dragon you, palace powder...... All stand proudly in the wind, a cold wind blows, and the falling flowers are colorful, beautiful and romantic.

In stark contrast to the outside, there is an oppressive atmosphere inside the Buddhist hall.

Xiao Chuhong recalled Xiao Ruoruo's words just now, and sneered on his face: "Hehe! You said that it was impossible for him to harbor the remnants of the previous dynasty, so do you know what the identity of your master is?! ”

Xiao Ruoruo's face was expressionless: "I don't know." But what the courtiers know is that this master was given to the courtiers by the emperor! She was secretly mocking him for using his niece, who was only three years old at the time, in order to achieve his goal!

"You!" Xiao Chuhong was a little annoyed and angry, "He is the former prince of the previous dynasty, Jiuyou Wenjin!" You don't know it's excusable, how could your father not know! ”

"But the truth is that Father really doesn't know! If he knew that if the emperor did not ask for the guilt, he would ask for punishment himself! Her voice was a little excited, and her eyes were full of resentment, but her heart was as plain as water.

This statement is true! When Xiao Chuhe found out that Cheng Buqi had Garan on his body, he suspected that he had saved the remnants of the previous dynasty, and his first reaction was to enter the palace and ask Xiao Chuhong, who was the emperor, to ask for guilt!

So at this time, Xiao Chuhong was also a little suspicious about whether he was thinking too much.

But when he thought that Qin Banruo, who had cuckolded him, turned out to be the princess of the previous dynasty, he wanted to kill with hatred!

"Did he mention his sister to you?"

"Never!"

One asked through gritted teeth, and the other answered bluntly.

Xiao Ruoruo felt a little strange: why did the emperor ask this question? And in such an angry tone!

I thought of the grassland above his head...... Hehe, I realized it in an instant! The queen mother who gave him a hat with affection is still the master's sister!

Glancing vaguely at the green man in front of her, she pretended to be pensive and asked a little cautiously, "Your Majesty, are you ...... Found the sister of Jiuyou Wenjin?! ”

"Ahem...... Ahem......"

Xiao Chuhong had the urge to kill her for a moment, but he was quickly suppressed, but because his heart fluctuated too much, he couldn't help coughing violently.

Suddenly, the already pale face was even more white and terrifying, the blue tendons on the forehead burst out, cold sweat broke out, and the lips were still bruised.

Xiao Ruoruo, who watched it, called a heart (heart) frightened (emotional) courage (Shu) battle (Chang)!

Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of blood, rolled his eyes, and fainted.

"Someone! Pass the doctor, pass the doctor! The Queen Mother was shocked and hurriedly shouted at the top of her voice.

Xiao Ruoruo felt that since it was the Queen Mother who saved her father and the king, then she should keep this great kindness in her heart. So he opened his mouth to comfort: "The Queen Mother, the emperor is fine." He has the toxins in his body that have not been cleared, so just spit them out. Don't believe me, do you see if the blood is jet black? ”

"Yes...... Really?! The Queen Mother was suspicious and glanced at the pool of blood on the ground.

Sure enough, it was as she said! Under the sunlight, the pool of blood was shining black, and it was still steaming!

My heart was immediately relieved.

And at this moment, Mama Sun, who heard the call of the Queen Mother, rushed back with the imperial doctor. In line with the idea of foolproof, she ordered the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat the emperor again.

After a while, he got a reply that was the same as Xiao Ruoruo. She glanced deeply at the girl who was touching her nose, and then looked away casually.

This little girl is not simple! In this way, she is relieved!

Yuan retreated again, and only the three of them were left in the house.

"Sit down." The Queen Mother pointed to the chair next to her.

"Empress Dowager Xie" Xiao Ruoruo naturally sat down with kindness.

"You are a smart and shrewd person, so you can rest assured that you are so sad." The Queen Mother took Xiao Ruoruo's delicate and white hand, and gently rubbed it, "Your father is upright, and the emperor is ...... In fact, he still has an old love for your father in his heart, and his previous actions were just to weaken your father's power, and he didn't want his life! ”

Xiao Ruoruo didn't say a word about this, just pursed her mouth and pulled out her hand.

The Queen Mother is old and refined, so she doesn't understand her thoughts, she sighed and said: "The mourning family left you in the palace just to let you work hard to change the emperor's opinion of your father!" ”
