Wei Changjue said: "This is not fair, after I went to Tianxiangyuan, you thought I had fat powder on my body, and you urged me to take a bath, I urged you, why can't you?" ”

"Can that be the same?" Lan Yi was disgusted, "You are going to find another girl, and you are a little shorter in momentum." Speaking of which, what did the eldest brother say to you at the end today? The smile on his face was strange as I watched him go. ”

Wei Changjue smiled, "Brother Great Emperor said that he will give up chasing power and be an idle prince, from this day on, he will not stand on anyone's side, only with the emperor." ”

Lan Yi noticed Wei Changjue's title, and his heart moved, "What does the eldest emperor mean is that the person who becomes the emperor, no matter who it is, he will assist wholeheartedly?" ”

Wei Changjue nodded, "That's fine, although I need help, but I'm more worried that the people around me have different intentions. ”

In the next seven or eight days, the two of them were busy with their own work, and the anti-corruption incident set off a lot of waves in the government and the opposition, Wei Changjue was not iron-faced and selfless, but he had secretly handed over some of the facts investigated to the table of Qianming Palace, and many ministers flocked to Wei Changyuan in order to protect themselves.

Wei Changyuan did not refuse, those who could take a hand, all wanted to help escape this catastrophe, and for a time the second prince became famous, many people cursed Wei Changjue at the same time, they would praise Wei Changyuan a few words, even the people knew that Wei Changjue was a "villain" who secretly poked and poked, and Wei Changyuan was a gentleman who blessed the world.

Lan Yi was not angry, "Who are the people he is blessing, those are all moths who have hollowed out the treasury!" ”

Wei Changjue reassured him a lot, "The reputation for a while is nothing, the second emperor brother has indeed won the support of the ministers this time, but there is no doubt that this is a stinky move, you can watch it." ”

After Lan Yi heard this, she waited patiently, and on the second day, she was going to Wei Changyin's prince's mansion as a guest, and she had to prepare a congratulatory gift, so as not to lose her courtesy at that time.

was discussing with Ning Fu what to send, Xiao Yanzi came in quickly, lowered his head and said eagerly: "There is news from the palace that the queen mother is suddenly seriously ill, and I also ask Her Royal Highness and the princess to enter the palace to have a look." ”

When the queen had never been sick and had never made such a special trip to invite the two of them, Lan Yi's heart was pinched at that time, and she got up suddenly, suddenly with a flower in front of her, her body shook, and she was supported by Ning Fu, and then asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Xiao Yanzi was very anxious, "The slave doesn't know, it was the aunt in the palace who sent someone to inform him, and the person who came left quickly, saying that the Weiyang Palace was busy and there was a shortage of manpower, so he had to go back to help quickly." ”

Lan Yi hurriedly walked out, but was grabbed by Wei Changjue's arm, and he asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you?" Aren't you feeling very comfortable, or why can't you stand just now? ”

Lan Yi was in a hurry, "What is most important now, don't you know in your heart?" I'm so young, what can I do, but I sat for too long and was in a hurry, and I stood up violently, and then I fainted. Xiao Yanzi, prepare the carriage quickly, and we will enter the palace. ”

Along the way, Wei Changjue didn't say much, but Lan Yi kept raising the curtain to urge, and the coachman threw up the whip and said: "Princess, it's not that the slave doesn't want to hurry, there are really a lot of people on this road in Beijing." ”

Lan Yi sighed, sat back, looked at the small window on the side from time to time, and muttered to himself, "I never thought this road was so long." ”

Wei Changjue took her into his arms and said seriously: "Lan Yi, don't look at it, you always go to pull that small window, I will also panic." ”

Lan Yi tried to stabilize himself, and was about to say something, when Wei Changjue asked again: "Are you really okay?" Still dizzy? ”

Lan Yi nodded again and again, "I'm really fine, Changjue, I will definitely accompany you, don't worry." ”

Wei Changjue breathed a sigh of relief.

When he heard that the queen was seriously ill, he was just a little nervous, thinking that this day had come after all, but when he saw that Lan Yi couldn't stand up and was about to faint, his heart really steamed with great panic.

Holding Lan Yi's shoulder with a broad palm, he said, "God has never favored me, I thought I was used to it, but I didn't expect it to be at all." It gave me a little sweetness, and I fell back in. I don't know how long the queen mother will last, but I hope you can hold on to it with me in good health. Lanyi, I know it's selfish, but I have to be selfish about your affairs. ”

His mother's life is on the line, and whoever this matter is put on it will be sad, even Pei Miaoqing gritted her teeth to get married, and she wants to find sustenance elsewhere, not to mention that Wei Changjue and the queen depend on each other?

Lan Yi could only appease him.

When they arrived at Deweiyang Palace, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and the two eunuchs guarding outside the palace saw His Royal Highness King Gong and Princess Gong, and hurriedly greeted him, and said tremblingly: "Aunt Lingjiao asked the servants to wait here, saying that as long as His Royal Highness and the princess come, they will quickly bring them in." ”

Wei Changjue "um", calmly faced, and strode in.

Lan Yi hurried a few steps and said in a low voice: "Changjue, no matter what the situation of the queen mother is, most of them don't want to see you like this, it's better to smile, if you support it, the queen mother can support it." ”

Wei Changjue nodded, trying to make a steady smile, "Does it look better like this?" ”

"Much better." Lan Yi stretched out his hand, tidied up Wei Changjue's clothes, and then nodded and said, "Let's go, let's go in together." ”

The busyness in the Weiyang Palace has been controlled by the water chestnut, and the palace people who come and go hand over the hot water and change the handkerchief, quite calmly, walking inside, the water chestnut looks at the six roads and listens to the eight directions, and the first one comes up to salute, "The slave has seen His Royal Highness and the princess." ”

Wei Changjue bowed his head, didn't say much, and rushed to the queen's side, her face was paler than when she fainted a few times as usual, but her expression was very peaceful, as if she was just sleeping peacefully.

Wei Changjue turned his head and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with the queen mother?" ”

"The master was still awake, and after a moment's effort, he fell asleep again." Water chestnut said, "The slave and maid wake up the master, the master has ordered, if His Royal Highness and the princess come, you must wake her up." ”

Wei Changjue said: "No, you tell me first, why did the queen mother's illness suddenly deteriorate like this, wasn't it all fine before?" ”

The water chestnut sighed and let the people around him go down before he said a word.

It turned out that there was a big incident in the palace today, this Ying Guifei inadvertently touched a porcelain vase that the Nine Emperors' biological mother, Concubine Ke, had given her as a birthday gift in the Changfu Palace.

Ying Guifei immediately went out of the palace to inquire, wanting to know what to say, but the folk Taoist priest said that writing a person's birthday on yellow paper with cinnabar, and then throwing it into a closed small object, can hinder the person's fortune, and even make him weak and sick, and his family is difficult to complete in his life, and he is in trouble.

This matter involves strange forces, but it is not small, Ying Guifei immediately ran to the emperor to cry, saying that it was Concubine Ke who held a grudge against herself, and it was because she did this kind of thing that she had caused herself to be quite unhappy in the past two years, and even her own children were damaged under the hooves of animals.

When it comes to Wei Changjun, it is also a pain in the emperor's heart, and it is inevitable to be angry, not to mention that even if these ghosts and gods are nonsense, if they want to harm people, it is also taboo in the palace to use methods similar to witchcraft to harm people, so he immediately asked Concubine Ke to ask.

However, Concubine Ke couldn't explain clearly, she said that she never wanted to hurt others, let alone do such a vicious thing, and naturally she didn't know who put the note in. Anyway, when she gave gifts, she had never seen anything like this.

Concubine Ying refuted her at the time, "You mean, it was the palace that let people put in to frame you?" Why are you such a vicious woman, no matter how this palace is, she will not joke about the child's affairs, the chief of this palace died so miserably, you still openly and secretly say that this is this kind of evil done by this palace itself, do you have a heart? You are also a person with a son, will you casually hand over the things related to Changshu to God and to the ghosts and gods?! ”

When it comes to her son, Concubine Ke easily panicked, she argued: "Of course not, the concubine knows how important the child is to the mother, so the concubine ......"

"So you curse this palace, curse the son of this palace! You know that if you don't have any children in this palace, you will be in pain! ”

"No, Your Majesty, please listen to the concubine's explanation, the concubine has never harmed people......" Concubine Ke kowtowed, explaining weakly.

The emperor only smiled coldly, "This is already a lie, you have so many eyes in your heart, when I don't know?" Since the day I was fortunate to have come to you, you have not stopped, I have allowed you to give birth to a prince, but I never thought that you have been teaching him to take you as a mother to heart. You think I'm treating you unfairly and want to get comfort from your children, don't you? ”

From the day she saw this man, Concubine Ke put her whole heart on him, but her expectations again and again were not only disappointed, but all she got was infinite doubts and knives pierced in her heart. Concubine Ke said mournfully: "Your Majesty, in your eyes, the concubine is just such a person? The concubine really had nothing to say. ”

The emperor snorted coldly, "You have nothing to say, I have nothing to say, there was a rumor in the palace that you wanted to replace the concubine, and now you have harmed the concubine in a grand manner, so vicious, I will not allow you." ”

Water chestnut said, these inside information, all the little eunuchs in the Qianming Palace heard and told the master, so many years, the queen finally has a little accumulation, if it wasn't for the news spread quickly, the queen rushed over, this concubine Niangniang, I'm afraid she is already in the cold palace now.

But Weiyang Palace came out for the concubine, and what he got was the emperor's dislike and reprimand, he said that it was the queen's blind connivance, so there was today's disaster, and he made it clear that the queen has always been unaccustomed to Concubine Ying, so she was able to tolerate what Concubine Ke did, but she didn't say that this matter was what the queen instructed Concubine Ke to do.

How could the queen endure such slander, and she was not polite between her words, saying that the emperor listened to and believed partially, refused to believe in the goodness of Concubine Ke, and was instigated by Concubine Ying many times, and wanted to force all the good people to be bad.

Such words, water chestnut can't be stopped, into the emperor's ears, the anger caused, far greater than before, the queen rushed over, originally to save people, but I didn't expect to cause things to go to a dead end, the more things involved, the two of them took out the trivial troubles in the past, and finally the emperor's scolding and the queen's reprimand were mixed together, but the concubine and Ying Guifei were thrown aside, even the water chestnut was dumbfounded, wanted to persuade, and didn't know where to persuade from.

Such a quarrel finally stopped at the moment when the queen fainted.

The emperor at that time was really stunned, but the water chestnut felt that he was like a gust of wind, rushed over and hugged the queen directly, and shouted two words in a low and rapid voice, "Junyi!" ”

The water chestnut is in a trance, the queen's name is Wen Junyi, few people in the harem know, if the emperor doesn't shout out, with the passage of time, I'm afraid even she will forget.

But the voice was too short, so short that the water chestnut wondered if it was an auditory hallucination.

Next, Xuan Taiyi, applied needles, and wiped the cold sweat on the queen's body...... In the face of Wei Changjue and Lan Yi, she didn't dare to take out such an uncertain thing, after all, she only talked about the moment when the queen fainted and shouted "Xuan Taiyi" with the emperor.

Wei Changjue's expression was serious and sad, the root of his sudden serious illness was still in his father, and it was difficult to distinguish right from wrong in his mind. Seeing that he had understood, the water chestnut bowed silently, took two steps back, turned around and knelt at the head of the bed, and called softly, "Master, master, Your Highness and the princess have come to see you." ”

The queen quickly woke up and saw Wei Changjue smiling at her, and couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth.

She stretched out her hand, Wei Changjue hurriedly stepped forward to hold it, and then turned back to Lan Yi to signal, Lan Yi also stepped forward, Wei Changjue folded her hand between herself and her mother, and the couple knelt on the side of the bed like this, quietly listening to the queen's words.

The queen glanced at the water chestnut, and the water chestnut immediately said, "Everyone go down." ”

Lan Yi beat a drum in his heart, looking at this posture, the queen is going to explain something.

Is it an heir? Or the throne?

However, what she didn't expect was that the first thing the queen said when she opened her mouth was, "Seeing you like this, my heart is very happy." ”

Lan Yi was stunned, and said softly: "Queen Mother, you don't have to worry about us, and you don't have to worry about anyone and things outside, Erchen will stay by your side and serve you from now on, and I have to help you raise your body." ”

The queen was very pleased, but what she said was: "You are also a little girl raised by thousands of pets, where will you serve people, I used to be by my side, I didn't let you work hard, in front of Changjue, don't let him feel that I, a mother-in-law, bully you." ”

Lan Yi couldn't cry or laugh, and after thinking about it, he said: "Changjue is looking for you in his heart, knowing that you are sick, and he is anxious or something, but he has something arranged by his father, so he has to let his sons and daughters be his eyes, and every day as long as he looks at the safety of the queen mother, it is enough, if you dislike your sons, your sons will try to please you, okay?" ”
