Chapter 322: What to Explain
Empress Dowager Zhao said: "I knew that you had taken her to the palace because of this plan, so the mourning family would not intercede for you, and let your imperial brother allow you to let her out!" You know her identity, and you want to marry her as a concubine, and in the future, I don't know what will happen to her! Now that the mourning family is still there, the mourning family can still say a few words for you. When the mourning family is no longer there, who can protect you? ”
Xiao Yulin lowered his head and said, "Erchen knows!" The sons and daughters all know what the queen mother is worried about. However, the queen mother also knew that this had nothing to do with her! She ......"
Speaking of this, Xiao Yulin glanced around, and then waved the idle people and others away.
Subsequently, Xiao Yulin said to the Empress Dowager Zhao: "The queen mother should know that the Zhong family has been wronged!" ”
Empress Dowager Zhao's eyes widened and said, "Don't listen to the rumors outside!" Don't be fooled by that woman! ”
Xiao Yulin said: "Queen Mother, whether this matter is true or false, the Queen Mother knows it in her heart. Erchen was suspicious when he was young, but as he grew up, he knew more things. ”
"What the hell do you know?!"
"What you should know, your sons know. The former prince, Zhong Yushi, and his sons all know it. All this is the handiwork of the royal brother. Erchen didn't listen to other people's rumors, nor did Zhong Yuqi confuse Erchen. The man who forged the letter has also been seen by his sons. The person killed by the imperial brother back then was not the one who really forged the letter. ”
"You talk nonsense! The mourners know that after you are with that woman, you will be bewitched by her! I knew that the mourning family should not have allowed you to associate with her, and killed her directly, and she would never suffer in the future! ”
Xiao Yulin laughed at himself and said, "So, the queen mother also knows about the things back then, right?" Perhaps, the queen mother is also a participant, a person who gives advice. If the secret is not leaked, the dead will not speak. ”
"You...... Do you believe the words of others, and you don't believe the words of mourners? Empress Dowager Zhao said sadly.
Xiao Yulin lowered his eyes a little sadly, and said, "The other things that the queen mother said, the sons are convinced. Only in this matter, Erchen believes in Erchen's judgment. The son showed the queen mother a thing, this thing, the son did not recognize it, I don't know if the queen mother denied it. ”
After speaking, Xiao Yulin took out the booklet from his arms and handed it to Empress Dowager Zhao.
Empress Dowager Zhao took the booklet, opened it, and only read the first few words, and knew what it was.
Empress Dowager Zhao was shocked and said, "This ...... How can this evidence be with you? You're not doing anything wrong, are you? ”
Xiao Yulin lowered his eyes and said, "The queen mother looks at the back." ”
Empress Dowager Zhao saw the end, and there was no signature at the end, and there was no handprint. Empress Dowager Zhao's face turned white in an instant, her eyes widened, and her mouth opened wide.
"This ...... What's going on? Empress Dowager Zhao exclaimed.
Xiao Yulin said: "This is what the person who forged the letter left behind. ”
Empress Dowager Zhao said, "Isn't that person already dead? How did this thing get into your hands? ”
"The queen mother doesn't ask about the origin of this thing, how can the queen mother explain it when she sees this thing?"
"This ......"
Empress Dowager Zhao's eyes widened, and she didn't know what to say. When she was angry again, she was about to faint when she saw it, so she was so frightened that Qinglian and Wanlu hurriedly gave her relief.
Empress Dowager Zhao raised her hand to stop their movements, closed her eyes and said, "Lin'er, how do you know that this letter is not forged?" ”
Xiao Yulin said: "Erchen thinks that this matter is true. As for what the queen mother thinks and says, the sons are just listening. Erchen didn't come to blame the queen mother and the royal brother, Erchen just wanted to compensate the Zhong family. Zhong Yuqi is now the only bloodline of the Zhong family, and Erchen just wants to treat Zhong Yuqi well, and atone for the Zhong family for his mother and royal brother. ”
"You ......"
Empress Dowager Zhao exhaled heavily and said, "Originally, the mourning family shouldn't have lied to you. But now, the mourning family has nothing to hide. This matter, as you think. However, the battle between emperors is like this, either you die, or I live! ”
Empress Dowager Zhao: "Back then, the former prince's foreign family was powerful, although he was also a military general, but he was not compatible with my Zhao family. If the former crown prince ascends the throne, where is your imperial brother, you and me, and the Zhao family? Thanks to the love of the mourning family, the first emperor favored you, and gave birth to you and your imperial brother, so the first emperor favored the mourning family even more. Especially your arrival, you have to be loved by the emperor. ”
Empress Dowager Zhao: "There are rumors that the first emperor intends to pass on the throne to you. This also aroused the jealousy of the former queen for the mourning family, and there was no less manipulation of the mourning family in the harem. None of this you know. ”
Empress Dowager Zhao: "At that time, you were still young, even if the first emperor really wanted to pass on to you, you couldn't control the court." The mourning family is a person in the harem and is not allowed to interfere with the court. Your royal brother is also a courtier, and you must not be suspected of taking over politics. When the time comes, no one can predict what will happen to the court. And you may not even be able to save your life. ”
Empress Dowager Zhao: "It's better to take the lead and let your imperial brother win the dragon chair first." Lin'er, I hope you can understand the hard work of the mourning family and your imperial brother! ”
Xiao Yulin said: "Queen Mother, these truths are also understood by the sons. Erchen has had speculation since he was a child, but in order not to embarrass his mother and royal brother, Erchen just didn't know what to do. Now, Erchen just wants to compensate the Zhong family and be kind to Zhong Yuqi, so he said what he said in his heart to his mother. ”
Xiao Yulin: "The son only dared to tell the queen mother. Brother Huang, Erchen knows that Brother Huang has always had opinions on Erchenbao. And now, Erchen is close to Zhong Yuqi, which is even more intolerable to the imperial brother. ”
Xiao Yulin: "Erchen doesn't know what the emperor's attitude towards Erchen will be in the future." But Erchen assured the queen mother that Erchen would never do anything to be sorry for the royal brother! As long as the royal brother does not live up to his son, the son will not embarrass the royal brother. Erchen doesn't like these intrigues, doesn't like court disputes, and just wants to stay with the people he likes for life. I hope that the queen mother will be fulfilled! ”
After speaking, Xiao Yulin kowtowed to the Empress Dowager Zhao again and fell to the ground.
Empress Dowager Zhao listened, closed her eyes, and two lines of tears slipped from the corners of her eyes.
Empress Dowager Zhao said: "It turns out that my son looks at the scenery on the surface, but in fact, this heart is also bitter!" It's the mourning family who can't stand my son! ”
Xiao Yulin said: "Erchen doesn't blame the queen mother, nor does he complain about the queen mother. The sons are considerate of the queen mother, and they also implore the queen mother to be considerate of the sons. ”
Empress Dowager Zhao sighed softly again, then bent down and pulled Xiao Yulin up. patted his hand again, and looked at Xiao Yulin's eyes, full of complexity.
"The emperor has arrived!"
Suddenly, there was a singing, which startled several people in the hall.
