Chapter 73: Decide the Great Things

Before Yao Hei'er's big ceremony was finished, Empress Dowager Yan couldn't wait to pull her up, and said with tears in her eyes, "Good boy, today we don't care about the monarch and minister, just talk about the usual friendship." Now that the mourning family and your sister-in-law have no idea, the two children are young and ignorant, I just think that you are a well-informed and well-read person, and you are now Sheng'er's mother-in-law, so you are naturally more intimate. ”

Yao Hei'er glanced at Queen Yang, who was already crying, and the two princes kneeling next to Li Gonglong's couch, hesitated, and said categorically, "The Queen Mother has always treated me like a daughter, and the Queen also treats me as a sister. The courtiers are brave, and there is only one sentence, inheriting the great treasure, it is none other than King Ning! ”

As soon as these words came out, King Ning immediately jumped up, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, stared at Yao Hei'er, and said angrily, "Mother-in-law doesn't know yet? My sister-in-law has given birth to a son, and my brother has long been the crown prince, so this throne should naturally be inherited by the prince's son. ”

Yao Hei'er bowed to King Ning, and said lightly, "King Ning is angry, the princess has already told me on the road, and persuaded me to persuade the queen mother to ask the prince's son to succeed to the throne, if it is in peacetime, this is not impossible, but now that the country of Mu has just been established for a year or two, the court is still unstable, and there are villains in the south, one ...... A young child, I am afraid that I can't suppress the formation. ”

King Ning glanced at Yao Hei'er coldly and said, "Why not?" What's not to hold back? Naturally, the king will help his nephew take care of the government for a few years, and then return it to him when he grows up. Mother-in-law is erudite and talented, doesn't she know that there is a Zhou Gong? King Wu died, King Cheng was young, isn't it the auxiliary government of Zhou Gong? When King Cheng grows up, will he return to the government of King Cheng? For thousands of years, who has not praised the great virtue of Zhou Gong? ”

Yao Hei'er said, "Zhou Gongfu became the king, and it was also after King Wu sat down in the country. Rao is like this, just because of the auxiliary government of Zhou Gong, as well as Uncle Guan, Uncle Cai, and Uncle Huo rebelled, does King Ning think that our Great Mu Kingdom can still afford to rebel? ”

Empress Dowager Yan clapped her hand and sighed, "Sure enough, we forgot about this." Sheng'er, you don't have to push it anymore, the south has already sent several waves of people over, and it has not yet been pacified, if there is chaos here again, I am afraid that the country that your father has worked hard to build will face a great crisis. What's more, the remnants of Xu Guo have not been eliminated, and the death of your father is not the deliberate harm of the remnants of Xu Guo? Our Great Mu Kingdom is now in a crisis, so it is natural to set up an adult monarch in order to stabilize its position. ”

Yao Hei'er was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "What?" Your Majesty has died......"

Empress Dowager Yan gritted her teeth and scolded hatefully, "It's all a thief called Qiu Qian, who bought off the cook named Ma Lin in the palace, and I don't know what medicine was used...... "

Empress Yang also cried, "It's all the palace accidental, because His Majesty wants to eat the shredded chicken soup with shepherd's cabbage, tofu and chicken, the palace ordered someone to send materials to do it in the side hall next to it, but I didn't expect the damn thief, so he put a medicine called shadowless dream in the crystal salt." ”

Yao Hei'er and Yao Qiong glanced at each other, Yao Qiong shook her head gently, Yao Hei'er understood that Yao Qiong didn't know these things.

Seeing that Empress Dowager Yan and Empress Yang were crying again, her heart became a little impatient, and she hurriedly pulled the topic back again, saying, "Queen Mother! The most important thing now is to hurry up and make a big decision! King Ning's brotherly love is admirable! It's just that now King Ning must not think that asking you to inherit the treasure is to pick up a bargain, in fact, it is a thousand catties of heavy burden on you! If you push it off, you're afraid of carrying a heavy burden! ”

Empress Dowager Yan also understood that now was not the time to cry, and she was busy saying to King Ning, "Sheng'er, your mother-in-law's words make sense." Just do what she says! ”

King Ning frowned and thought for a while, and said, "In this case, when I ascend to the Great Treasure, I will definitely make my nephew the crown prince, and return the dragon throne to my nephew in the future." ”

Yao Hei'er was stunned for a moment, then glanced at her daughter Yao Qiong, who was lowering her eyebrows next to her, and said busily, "This is naturally handled by King Ning, the Queen Mother, and the Queen, and the courtiers are all obedient!" ”

Since the major event has been decided, the Empress Dowager Yan ordered Meng Ying to send the Zhongshu Sheren into the palace and draft an edict, saying that the saint left a will, so that Li Sheng, the king of Ning, would take over the dragon throne; He also ordered someone to go to the Ministry of Rites to discuss the rites of the state funeral.

King Ning and the middle scholars went to the study next to them, and the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace were also sent out to prepare filial piety. In the huge palace, although there are still a few people who serve, it can't help but look a little empty.

Empress Dowager Yan and Empress Yang looked at Li Gong, who had returned to heaven on the dragon couch, and Li Yan, the king of Ding, who was still kneeling beside Li Gong's couch, and couldn't help but shed tears again.

Yao Hei'er was about to leave the palace, but when she saw the queen mother and the queen sad, she had to persuade her tactfully, because she asked, "The queen mother, the queen, and the courtiers just heard about it, and what is it called...... What ......"

Empress Yang said sadly, "That thief is called Qiu Qian, although we don't know the origin, I think it is just the remnants of Xu Guo, or the family of the official eunuch who was demoted, or the relatives of the official eunuch who was killed, Sheng'er has ordered the household department to investigate according to this clue, and there must be a result after all." The cook, whom he had bribed, had committed suicide by taking medicine, and in his room, no clues were found. ”

Mound diving? Mound diving?

Yao Hei'er silently read it twice in her heart, this name seemed to be a little familiar, but she couldn't remember it for a while.

Seeing that Empress Dowager Yan and Empress Yang were crying again, Yao Hei'er didn't have time to think about it anymore, but just searched for all the good words in her stomach to try her best to comfort her.

Some palace maids have already brought a few sets of filial piety clothes, Yao Heier took the palace maids to help the queen mother, the queen, Yao Qiong and King Ding, and they all changed according to the etiquette, and cried for a while.

Empress Yang held back her tears and said, "Sister, it's been a good night, seeing that the windows are all white, you can go back too." With Qiong girl here, that's it. ”

Yao Hei'er stood up at this time and said, "The queen mother, the queen, on the road first, I heard Princess Ning mention that the princess gave birth to a son, and now the palace is busy, and I think the princess also needs manpower there, so it is better for the courtiers to go home and wash, so go to the East Palace to see, if there is anything, it is better to come back and forth to the queen mother and queen in time." ”

Empress Dowager Yan hurriedly said, "That's right, just because the major events have not been decided, and the death of His Majesty is also covered up, when you get there, and Yu Niang's child, she said slowly, it is also the most important thing for her to take care of her body." Poor Yu'er, only this single seedling is left......" he said, and couldn't help but burst into tears again.

Yao Hei'er hurriedly agreed, and said, "The Queen Mother, please take care of the jade body!" The courtiers must do their best to serve the princess and the prince's son. ”

Yao Qiong saw that her mother was leaving, because she said, "Mother, my daughter is now filial piety, and it is inconvenient to send you to the old man's house, you came by your daughter's car, and let them send you back, that is." ”

Yao Hei'er agreed one by one, and gave a salute to Empress Dowager Yan and Empress Yang, and said goodbye.

Sitting in the car back, Yao Hei'er wondered again - who is Qiu Qian? How is the name so familiar?
