As soon as he spoke, he heard the sermon "The emperor is coming".
Emperor Hongfu had a calm face, and his steps seemed a little slow, but the frowning brows were enough to show that he was anxious at this time, the setting sun shone on his gray sideburns, and the queen mother's eyes suddenly felt bitter.
The emperor has been worried about the crown prince for 20 years, and he has really exhausted his energy and blood, and he is only in the age of confusion at this time, not to mention the well-maintained queen mother, even the empress dowager Zhang, looks a little more energetic than the emperor, especially in the past two years, the emperor's heart disease has worsened, and he has been in a coma for four or five times, and the queen mother is really worried about the dragon body of Emperor Hongfu.
This is not her own flesh and blood who was pregnant for ten months, but when she thinks that she may inevitably experience the white-headed person sending the black-haired person, the queen mother still feels that the world is bleak. People have lived too long and have not seen a good life, and they have just experienced more life and death.
"The queen mother, the son is really shameless."
Listening to Emperor Hongfu's frustrated and listless words, the queen mother's anger disappeared, and she also sighed: "It's also blamed on my greed for pleasure all these years, and I didn't have the consciousness to share the emperor's worries and solve problems, so that the grandson lost his religion so far." ”
"Crown Princess Gao, it's really an unforgivable sin." Emperor Hongfu was angry.
"She has already known her mistake before repenting in the Boning Nunnery, in order to show piety, it is better to simply let the Gao family live in the Nantaizi Xu'an more quietly, she is not happy with her niece Gao Jiao, Gao Jiao since the age of five, there are always seven or eight months in a year to live in Ciqing Palace with the Gao family, just let Gao Jiao also accompany her to live in Zixu Nunnery, as a niece, it is reasonable to serve and accompany the aunt, Gao has a junior companion by his side, even if His Royal Highness the grandson is busy with government affairs and studies and rarely visits, Gao is not so lonely after all."
This is to mention that the Gao family was simply put under house arrest in Nantaizi Xu'an.
Leaving Gao Jiao to accompany him, in fact, is also to warn, the Song State Mansion is about to be punished, and it is inevitable to take the title of the family, even if the female dependents do not have to be official prostitutes and palace slaves, the days of brocade clothes and jade food are gone, Gao Jiao is the daughter of the princess's niece, the eldest daughter of Gao Shizi, compared to being reduced to a lowly status or marrying the market, at least the princess will not suffer hardships and humiliation in Nantai, if the princess knows her mistakes and can change them, the emperor can even allow Gao Jiao a relatively good marriage in the future, so that she can have a home, This is the only forgiveness for Song Guogong and even the crown princess.
Gao Jiao is the concubine chosen by the crown princess, and this kind of treatment is of course like announcing that the Song State Mansion is at the end of the road.
Emperor Hongfu was extremely annoyed that he had chosen the Gao family as his wife for the late prince, and now he naturally would not tolerate the crown princess's guilt more, he closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath, and frowned even tighter: "The queen mother is right, I hope it is not too late to make amends, Yu'er has no Gao family to instigate bewitchment, and his temperament can be reversed." ”
Sure enough, I didn't despair of my grandson.
The Queen Mother couldn't sigh, and she was really worried about Emperor Hongfu's decision.
The son understands in his heart that if it weren't for the queen mother's shock today, the queen may not be willing to return Miss Dong's innocence, and if she really wants to make a fuss and shock the government and the opposition, it will be useless to break the bones and ashes of the Gao family...... If Miss Dong is the princess, of course the rest of the people will not dare to slander again. ”
"It's really the most foolproof way." The Queen Mother said.
"The daughter of the Duke of Jin is of course qualified enough to be the princess, and the son has already considered it, and he will be given the title of Wulang as the king of Zi, and he will give
The king of Marriage Zi married the daughter of the Dong family as the concubine, but it was just ...... The queen mother also knew that her son and his concubine would have to argue after only ten words...... and Lao Mu personally announced the decree to the concubine after a while. ”
To say that the queen mother and the emperor give marriage, in fact, there is no need to ask for the approval of the concubines, but Emperor Hongfu is a benevolent monarch, and the practice will seek the opinions of the prince's biological mother, and the concubine has always been a straight temper, and dare to do anything if he is in a hurry, Emperor Hongfu really does not have the confidence to reach a unity with the concubine calmly on the marriage of the five princes, and he has to beg the queen mother after thinking about it.
If you want to say that the concubine is really respectful in this court, there is only the queen mother.
Of course, the queen mother would not refuse Emperor Hongfu's pleading, but thinking of the state of "respect as ice" between the concubine and the emperor over the years, she couldn't help but say two words for her: "The women in the palace, who don't have two bent stomachs, only the concubine is as straight as ever, the emperor lived in the East Palace at that time, and he still liked her temperament, otherwise the emperor would not have listened to the concubine's proposition in the accident of the Yao family, but in the end, it was because the Yao emperor had a mustard in his heart, complained that the concubine was too strong, and gradually got into her life, In fact, the concubine is not an unreasonable person, so where can he deliberately do it against the emperor no matter what? ”
"Although Yao is the maid of the concubine, but in the end he is ...... with his son But the concubine insisted on punishing her for hard labor, and even though the Yao family had Saburo, she still refused to forgive, and refused to raise Saburo in her name, she was so jealous......"
"When I punished the Yao family, I made the decision, and if the emperor wants to complain, he should also blame me."
Emperor Hongfu was so shocked that he hurriedly got up: "How dare my son complain about his mother?" The son knows that he and the concubine are stubborn, and the queen mother was originally lenient, but it was just because the concubine was serving the queen mother that night, so that Yao got the opportunity to drill the camp, and the queen mother had to treat Yao from her wishes in order to appease him, and later Yao gave birth to San Lang, and his mother was also willing to persuade him to raise his knees, isn't it also to forgive Yao, at least not to let her suffer in the service all the time? However, He and his concubine were still obsessed and finally ...... Yao was Saburo's biological mother, but she died in the military office, and whenever her son thought of it, he felt regret in his heart. ”
"I know that the emperor has always been benevolent, and I don't necessarily have much affection for the Yao family, but I just thought that after all, she was also a one-night servant, and later gave birth to an heir for the emperor, and I felt sad to see her die in the service. But today I also tell the emperor the truth, I decided to deal with the Yao family not because I felt guilty about the concubine, I do agree with the concubine's proposition. ”
The Queen Mother frowned slightly: "The emperor said that he was jealous of his concubines, then I have to ask you, although you were still the prince back then, in addition to the crown princess in Ciqing Palace, there were also many concubines, when did the concubines compete with them for favor?" Concubine Jing was still serving in my palace at that time, because you often come to Kunning Palace, you fancy her considerate and gentle, but you don't dare to open your mouth to me, even the queen felt that you were a prince but coveted the people of the palace of the mother is not a glorious thing, don't say to ask for gifts, this matter must be hidden, and the Peng Shen family can not be used as an excuse to shake the storage position. However, you have quietly promised Concubine Jing that you will accept her as a concubine and guard her appearance, and you refuse to take an oath, has the emperor forgotten who asked for me for you? ”
"Yes...... and concubines. ”
"If Concubine He is really a jealous woman, how can you fulfill this wish of yours, and watch Concubine Jing share her favor." The Queen Mother sighed: "The reason why she insisted on dealing with the Yao family, hasn't the emperor still figured out the reason?" Did the emperor take a fancy to Yao's intention to let her sleep? No! That night, I suffered from the cold, the condition was critical, and the concubine knew how to know medical skills after hearing the news and hurriedly came to Kunning Palace to assist the doctor in the diagnosis and treatment, because the incident happened suddenly, I didn't care about reporting it in person, but she knew that you would go to her palace that night, so I asked Yao to report for her
sound, lest you go on an empty trip.
What did Yao say as a result? Said that it was ordered by the concubine to serve the prince, full of nonsense and said that the concubine knew that it was difficult to give birth to and raise him, but he had been looking forward to having children to bear the knees, and he thought about it for a long time before he planned to recommend her to bed, hoping that she would be able to give birth to an heir for the prince in the future, and the concubine would be raised under the name of the concubine, she welcomed you to the palace, claiming that the concubine had made an excuse to avoid Kunning Palace for the sake of this matter, you didn't know about my sudden cold, and believed Yao's lies as true. ”
The Queen Mother was still indignant when she talked about the old things at this time: "The Yao family betrays the Lord for ambition and selfish desires, how can you let the concubine tolerate her?!" Such a bold woman, I will not let her succeed! But she is really lucky, she has San Lang after sleeping for one night, the reason why I want to persuade He Concubine to raise San Lang under her name is that compared with Zheng and Wan, I trust He Concubine's character more, and I know that if she agrees, she will not embarrass San Lang; Moreover, it is also for her sake, after all, she insists on punishing the Yao family as hard labor, and it is inevitable that she will be jealous and intolerant of slander, if she can raise San Lang, these slanders will not be a cause for concern, and one more thing is that I saw that because of Yao's affairs, you and her gradually became involved, and I also hoped that I would compromise with my concubine and take a step back, and I could also ease the impasse between the emperor and her. ”
Unexpectedly, in the emperor's opinion, the Queen Mother did this for the sake of the Yao family, and the Queen Mother really couldn't cry or laugh.
"He concubine is unwilling to raise San Lang, the reason she also said it clearly in front of the emperor, she despises Yao, angers San Lang, can't be the mother of Yao's son, but she understands that the child is innocent, should not bear the Yao family's legacy of the guilt, if she treats San Lang indifferently, San Lang must not be warm, is it not unfair to San Lang? There are many things that can't be forced, so I persuaded the emperor to dispel the idea of letting the concubine raise San Lang, but the emperor also thought about it, if the concubine is really jealous, why disobey the emperor and me in person? She promised to raise San Lang openly, and treated her coldly and even harshly in private, so as to punish Yao's mother and son to vent their anger. ”
When Emperor Hongfu heard this, he sighed for a long time: "Yes, it's like a concubine...... At that time, she always said that Saburo was stubborn and didn't listen to discipline, and I didn't believe it anymore. ”
"The emperor has a grudge against the concubine, and the great reason is also in San Lang, Zheng is not kind, and treats San Lang very harshly, the emperor will inevitably regret it after learning about it, you, in fact, I also believe that He Concubine will not be as two-faced as Zheng's, thinking that if she could be generous and agree to raise San Lang, San Lang would not have suffered for so many years."
"The concubine is so cruel to San Lang, but San Lang has never been willing to disobey the concubine, until now, treating the concubine as if she was a biological mother, I think that this child has not been treated warmly since birth, and I am indeed guilty and heartbroken."
"But the emperor can't complain about the concubine because of this, after all, it's not her fault." The Queen Mother is colorful.
"Yes, the queen mother's admonition is reasonable, and the son should indeed not blame the fault and concubine, but ...... Freezing three feet is not a day's cold, and my son and concubine may never return to the beginning. "Emperor Hongfu was also extremely depressed.
Those years of unspoken and unsympathetic affection have really been too long, so far away that when he wants to reminisce, it is like falling into chaos and chaos, and now he can no longer appreciate the direct frankness of the identity and concubine, she has not changed at all, it is he who has changed, he is tired, there are too many things that need him to worry about dealing with too many things, what he needs is a gentle and considerate woman like Concubine Jing and Concubine Hui, and the sharpness of the concubine will only make him more tired and make him avoid it.
The Queen Mother looked at Emperor Hongfu for a while, and finally gave up persuasion.
The world is often like this, perhaps destined for a person and a person's fate, only such shallow, the emperor's affection can not be expected to last for a long time, which is more helpless than ordinary people's hearts are changeable.
