Chapter 3 Turning into spring mud is more protective of flowers
Since the emperor learned that the queen was critically ill, the emperor went to the Zhaixiu Palace every day to visit the queen.
Once in the morning after the morning pilgrimage, once in the afternoon, and once in the evening.
This is probably the most frequent time that the emperor has gone to Zhaixiu Palace in the past ten years. In addition, the frequency of the imperial doctor's entry and exit from this Zhai embroidery palace is also much higher than usual.
The concubines of this harem will naturally guess that the queen mother is afraid that she is about to die. The position of queen can finally be vacated. Some people will naturally think so badly, but some people will still feel pity.
Zhaixiu Palace has such abnormal behavior, this squatting at the door of Zhaixiu Palace, there are many people who want to find out the situation inside.
If this person is the first to get real and reliable news, he can naturally prepare and plan in advance.
Most of the time, the queen was in a coma. Occasionally, I would open my eyes, but only for a second or two, and then close them again and fall asleep.
That night, the emperor had dinner and was about to get up to visit the queen in the Zhaixiu Palace.
At this time, the little eunuch outside the door hurriedly bowed his head and came in, "Your Majesty, the fan girl in the queen's palace has something important to see." ”
"Biography." The emperor had an ominous premonition in his heart.
The little eunuch hurriedly bowed his head and turned to leave, and passed a fan at the door.
Fan Er entered the hall, quickly knelt down, and kowtowed to the emperor unhurriedly, "Your Majesty, the mother is sober, and she said that she wanted to see the emperor." ”
The emperor always felt a little uneasy in his heart, "Okay." ”
The two hurriedly went to the Zhaixiu Palace, and Father-in-law Li Yue followed behind the emperor.
When he arrived at the Zhaixiu Palace, the emperor knew that the queen had always liked to be pure, so he withdrew all the palace people. Only the fan was left to serve aside, and even Li Yue's father-in-law could only wait at the door.
The queen, who was lying on the bed, saw the emperor coming and wanted to get up and salute. But the body didn't listen to the call at all, and tried to get up, but it never worked.
The emperor hurriedly strode forward, sat on the edge of the bed, and stopped the queen from getting up and saluting. "The queen doesn't have to salute, your body is very weak, just lie down like this."
"The concubine is rude, and I hope the emperor will forgive her sins." The queen replied with a pale face and an embarrassed expression.
When Fan'er left, the queen specially asked Fan'er to change the queen's clean clothes and recomb her hair. also asked the fan to put makeup on the queen, but it still couldn't hide the queen's pale and haggard face.
The emperor is naturally the queen, and the queen has always paid attention to etiquette, and letting the queen lie like this does hurt the queen's dignity.
"Fan'er, help the mother up."
The queen sat up and leaned back, her body was too weak, and she still needed a fan to support her.
The emperor's actions moved the queen very much, at least it shows that the emperor has not forgotten the queen in his heart, and still remembers the queen's bits and pieces.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that time is running out for concubines." The queen's voice was soft and weak.
"Don't say that, the Queen. The Imperial Doctor will surely heal you. The emperor comforted the queen
"The emperor doesn't comfort his concubines, the concubines' bodies are known by the concubines themselves. In the future, in this harem, the concubines will no longer be able to help the emperor take care of it, and the concubines will be ashamed of the emperor and the emperor. ”
"This harem queen takes care of it very well, and she will continue to help me take care of it in the future."
The queen looked at the emperor, as if she had something else to say, but she didn't know how to speak.
This may be the last time in the queen's life, not to mention that I am afraid that there will be no more opportunities. said that he was afraid that in the end, it made the emperor unhappy and made him angry.
The emperor also saw something about the meaning of the queen's expression.
"I am ashamed of the Queen. On the day of the wedding, I clearly said that the three chapters of the covenant were good, but I violated them. Don't pamper, don't protect, believe. Can I do the first two things to satisfy the queen? ”
The queen looked at the emperor and shed tears, and the emperor raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears that crossed the queen's face.
"Only this third one believes that I am not doing well. The queen is willing to give me a chance to make amends. The emperor wiped the queen's tears, and looked at the queen over and over again = .
"The emperor has done a good job of these three articles, and the emperor has not violated them."
"I will believe what the queen says, and thoroughly investigate the concubine."
Hearing this, the queen's tears gushed out as if the floodgates had been completely opened.
"Your Majesty, the concubines still have one last wish, I don't know if the emperor can satisfy the concubines."
"The queen said that as long as I can do it, I will help you achieve it."
"Can the emperor hug his concubine once?"
When the emperor heard this, his heart choked. The two have been married for ten years and have never even touched each other. It seems that the queen is really leaving now, and she is much bolder and has made such a request.
The emperor gently approached the queen and gently held the queen in his arms.
The corners of the queen's mouth rose slightly, and she smiled happily. It's not the kind of laugh that comes from the heart. The queen smiled, closed her eyes gently, and slowly rested her head on the emperor's shoulder.
The emperor knew that the queen had gone.
The fan standing next to him also knew that the queen was at the end.
Fan Er left tears, and the tears were full of the friendship between master and servant between the queen, and also full of respect for the queen, and also regret for the queen.
It was only at this moment that Fan Er also knew that the three chapters of the covenant between the queen and the emperor: not favor, not protective, and believe. The stalk that has been in the heart of the fan for so many years can be regarded as unraveled at this moment.
The emperor gently put the queen on the bed and lay down, and helped the queen comb her hair with his hands.
At this time, a flat man suddenly appeared from the air. Slowly and leisurely, it fell down and landed next to the queen.
The emperor and Fan Er were a little stunned when they saw all this.
The one who fell was a woman, covered in wounds. appeared out of thin air like this, which really stunned the emperor who had seen the world.
This person is none other than Cai Yue.
There was blood on the woman's face, but it could be seen from the silhouette that the woman looked exactly like the queen.
I don't know whether to say that she looks like the queen mother, or the queen mother looks like her.
The only difference is that the queen is wearing the queen's clothes. Even at the end, she still has the demeanor of the queen mother.
The identical woman next to her had a bloodstained face and a gray face. Visible scars can be seen on the entire right arm, as well as blood stains. The clothes were also ragged, stained with blood and ashes. One of the feet was wearing shoes, and he never wore them.
Fan Er was stunned, and as soon as Niangniang left, a person who looked exactly like Niangniang fell from the sky. Is this providence, is it the mother who is back?
Fortunately, when he came, the emperor withdrew all the palace people.
"Fan'er, you quietly go to the Tai Hospital to pass on Doctor Zhang." The emperor seemed calm and calm.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Fan Er received the emperor's order and quickly turned around. Leaving the Zhaixiu Palace, I went to the Tai Hospital to ask for Dr. Zhang.
Fan Er left the Zhaixiu Palace, but he also had all kinds of doubts in his heart.
Who is this person and why did he appear in the Zhaixiu Palace out of thin air.
The timing of the appearance is also too coincidental. At the same time as the queen left, this person appeared in the sky above the Zhaixiu Palace out of thin air and slowly floated down.
also has a similar face to the queen's mother, but the queen's soul has changed her body and returned.
These are all Fan Er has seen in the script, so he thinks so.
The matter between the queen and the emperor, not all fans know. It is impossible to say that Fan Er has no grudge against the emperor. It's just how deep the grievance is.
Fan Er is a smart person, although there are doubts in his heart, those who should be asked and those who should not be asked, Fan Er has his own confidence in his heart.
Those who should be complained, those who should not be complained, are also clear in their hearts.
Those who should be tolerated and those who should not be tolerated are also measured.
I know what I should do as a slave and what I shouldn't.
These are also the principles of life that the queen mother taught fans back then, and the basic essentials of survival in the palace.
Fan Er left, and Li Yue's father-in-law was waiting outside the door. At this time, there was only a sober living person in the house.
The emperor just stood there and watched for a while. Just looked at the two people lying on the bed, but they were very different.
The emperor looked carefully, looking at the woman in ragged clothes and covered in blood.
Every now and then you can smell a smell of gunpowder. This smell naturally does not come from the queen's body, nor is it the original taste of this Zhai embroidery palace.
The emperor bent down and approached the children next to the queen, and sniffed it elegantly.
The smell of gunpowder must have emanated from her body.
The emperor looked very carefully at the woman's clothes. Where there is no blood or dust on the clothes, you can see the original material of the clothes. It's not old at all, and judging by the color, it should be a new fabric. The emperor has never seen this material, it is so thin, it doesn't look like cotton or silk or anything like that.
The hair was not combed and was a little messy. Some of the hair was sticking to blood and clinging to her face. The length of the hair is not long, at most it reaches the middle of the back, less than the length of the waist.
These shoes have heels, not too high. The workmanship is exquisite, and it doesn't look like cloth shoes, but like the skin of some animal. But it's not quite like it, the color is very bright, some like a copper mirror. There is no embroidery on the upper, and on the front of the shoe, there is something that sparkles and looks like a gem.
After such an observation, the emperor found that the woman's dress did not belong to the clothes of the Si Na country.
In the emperor's cognition, he has never seen a country or nation dressed like this.
The emperor wondered very much, where did this woman come from with such a strange dress?
What happened to the queen, such a tragic situation appeared in the queen's Zhaixiu Palace? How did she get into this Zhai Embroidery Palace? Where did she come from?
The emperor stood in front of the couch and raised his head to look at the beams of the house where the woman had fallen just now, and the roof was intact.
Did it really appear out of thin air?
The emperor has never encountered this kind of thing, but he has seen it in some books, and the gods come out of thin air and go out of thin air.
Isn't this woman a god in the sky?
If it is a god, why is this the case?
Didn't you commit some heavenly rules and be punished?
What makes the emperor even more strange is that this person looks exactly like the queen. It was all too strange to appear out of thin air when the queen was leaving.
Is there some providence in this?
While thinking, the emperor slowly walked to the table in the hall and sat down.
After a while, Fan'er came with Imperial Doctor Zhang.
The emperor asked Imperial Physician Zhang to wait outside the door now, and instructed Fan'er to hide the queen. Fan Er changed the injured woman into the emperor's clothes.
The emperor also instructed that if the imperial doctor asked, he would find a reason to prevaricate. Just said, Fan Er decocted medicine for Niang Niang in the backyard. I don't know if Niangniang woke up, Niangniang walked to the backyard, and the fan just picked up the medicine, but Niangniang fell on the medicine stove without standing firmly.
After dealing with this, Fan'er took Imperial Doctor Zhang to the bed.
Imperial Physician Zhang looked at the queen lying on the couch and was a little confused, this injury, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the queen she saw a few days ago.
Imperial Physician Zhang pulled out the pulse, and the pulse was even more strange. It's completely different from the previous pulse. The pulse before the queen was weak, coming and going, but this pulse was strong and steady.
Next, Imperial Physician Zhang carefully examined the queen's injuries.
"Fan'er girl, I don't know how the queen mother was injured so badly?" Doctor Zhang asked Fan'er.
"Just now, the slave maid was decocting medicine for Niangniang in the backyard. I don't know that Niangniang woke up, Niangniang walked to the backyard, the slave maid just picked up the medicine, and Niangniang fell on the medicine stove without standing firmly. ”
Imperial Physician Zhang was a little puzzled, the burn marks of Niangniang were indeed true, but he could smell a smell of gunpowder. This queen's fall is at most some skin trauma, how can it be so open, and there are more fractures.
Could it be that the queen has been taking medicine all year round, and her bones are loose and brittle. However, according to this pulse, this symptom is not at all satisfied.
Could it be that it is said in the book that it must break its muscles and bones before it can be reborn!?
Imperial Physician Zhang didn't want to get too entangled, after all, in this palace, everyone was a secret person. If you don't want to say it, you don't want to, just practice healing and saving people as a doctor.
Imperial Physician Zhang walked up to the emperor and reported, "Qiyu, the emperor." Niangniang's injuries are a bit serious. Niangniang's right ear has bleeding, and I am afraid that her hearing in her right ear will be damaged in the future. The left and right arms were dislocated and fractured, and the right finger was fractured, and there were serious traumatic injuries. Left and right calves are fractured, and there are obvious scars on the right thigh. If you recuperate, you should be able to regain your basic mobility in February. ”
"It takes so long?" The emperor asked rhetorically.
"Back to the emperor, it has indeed been a long time. Niangniang's injuries mainly hurt the bones, so it naturally takes longer. It's not like a skin trauma. ”
"What was Niangniang's original condition?" The emperor tested Imperial Doctor Zhang.
"Back to the emperor, just now besieged the city to check the pulse of Niangniang, and found that Niangniang's pulse was strong and stable. I don't know what the reason is, all of a sudden. Weichen guessed, I don't know if it was the medicine of the previous one. ”
"Can this medicine save people?"
"Back to the emperor, this medicine is also a matter of quantity, a small amount can save people, and more can harm people. It's just that Weichen is only a shallow learner, and I don't know that this medicine still has such an effect. ”
"Good. Then you go down and prescribe medicine, and take good care of your mother's wounds. ”
"Yes, Wechen obeys."
The imperial doctor treated Cai Xiao's wounds, and Fan'er helped by the side.
The imperial doctor first had to clean up the bloody wounds that were quickly blown up, then apply medicine and then bandage them.
If these scars are not handled carefully, even if they are healed in the future, it is estimated that they will leave scars. So the doctor was very slow and careful.
After the imperial doctor dealt with it, he left the Zhaixiu Palace.
Cai Xiaoxiao's face was a little pale, which should be caused by excessive blood loss.
wiped this face, originally Fan Er just thought that he was similar to the queen. Unexpectedly, this face is exactly the same as that of the queen.
Fan'er has mixed feelings in his heart.
After Fan'er dealt with all this, he walked up to the emperor, "Your Majesty, everything has been dealt with." ”
"After nightfall tonight, I will arrange for someone to secretly send Niang Niang out of the palace for burial. He's going to come here to you, and your code is, wrong, wrong, Momomo. When the girl next to you wakes up, you serve him well, like a mother. From now on, he will be the queen's mother, understand? ”
"Back to the emperor, the slave is stupid." Fan Er said as he knelt humbly on the ground. Fan Er pretended to be a little reluctant and said. After all, it was his own master who left, and he couldn't change to a new master without any doubt or hesitation.
"I know that you are loyal to your master, if I announce the death of the queen. Wouldn't it be that the murderer succeeded, this Zhai Embroidery Palace, I'm afraid you won't be able to live anymore. The memories of your queen mother's ten years in this embroidery palace will also come to naught. This woman must have been sent by heaven to find out the real culprit for your mother. Even so, is he not enough to be your master? ”
"Yes, slave and maid." Fan Er knew that if this was the case, this Ming woman would definitely be threatened by the same threat as the queen's mother, and even her life would be in danger.
"Remember to be your queen mother."
"The slave obeys." Fan Er is sure in his heart that this person is the reincarnation of the queen's mother, that is, the reincarnation of the mother, so naturally he must be treated and cared for like the mother.
After that, the emperor left the Zhaixiu Palace.
Fan Er used the queen's mother to recuperate on the grounds that she was left alone in the palace. Sent away all the slaves and servants in the queen's palace.
In the huge queen's palace, there is only one corpse, two living people. Among them, a living person is still lying with the corpse, which is a little infiltrating when you think about it.
At night, in the dead of night. Except for the patrolling guards, there was no one else in the palace to move around. The queen's palace door was finally knocked, and Fan Er hurriedly responded, "Who?" ”
"Wrong, wrong, wrong."
Fan Er knew that it was someone sent by the emperor, "Mo Momo." ”
Fan Er hurriedly opened the door, and then handed over the dead queen mother to this person.
Concubine Shu's palace has also been closely monitoring this Zhaixiu Palace, and after finding that Fan Er left Zhaixiu Palace and went to the emperor's Qinzheng Palace, she hurriedly went back to report to Concubine Shu.
After hearing the news, Concubine Shu paused for a few seconds and continued to write, saying nothing.
The subordinate also understood the meaning of Concubine Shu's speechlessness, so she stopped making a sound, and stood beside her silently with her head bowed.
In fact, at this time, Concubine Shu's words in her heart were: The queen is finally dead, and the palace has finally taken a step forward. But Hongu was not happy at all. Maybe one day this will be the end of Hongu.
Thinking of this, Concubine Shu stopped the pen in her hand, gently put it on the pen stand, and went outside with a touch of sadness.
