What the? It turned out that he didn't dare to come to his palace these days, because of this?

What makes me hurt so much? Shangguan Wan raised his hand and clenched his chest, feeling that the pain was spreading at a rapid speed, covering himself like a spider web, but he was powerless to struggle.

The eldest brother went, and his father's life and death were unknown, but he was lucky to survive. Step by step to today, no matter how hard it is, I dare not slack off, why can't I see the exit? It turned out that the pain was only the beginning at that time, and the pure happiness had been completely buried at that moment.

"-Wan'er, you listen to the words of the mourning family, don't be sad and sad first. You replied to the mourning family--- emperor, how are you treated?" ”

The Empress Dowager asked.

Shangguan Wanxuan raised her head in surprise, not knowing whether to answer well or not, and there were too many rights and wrongs between the two, far from being able to explain clearly in a simple sentence.

My heart was dazed and confused, and my soul seemed to wander between memories and reality, and I was silent for a long time before I nodded, and said softly: "Well, Erchen knows that the emperor treats Erchen well, it's okay." ”

"That's good." The Empress Dowager smiled slightly, and said: "The emperor has been made the crown prince since he was a child, although he was not raised by the mourning family, but he also knows something, such a suspicious and unstable temperament, I am afraid that you will be wronged." ”

Shangguan Wanshu shook his head slowly, and replied softly: "Erchen is very good, the empress dowager doesn't have to worry." ”

"If you regret it, if you didn't pass on the throne to Sulfone, I'm afraid you would be better off now. However, who can do this fateful thing...... Lord."

The Empress Dowager finally couldn't hold back her tears, and said in a trembling voice: "The mourning family just thinks that they don't know which day they will go, but before they die, they can't look at their beloved two grandchildren in front of them, such an arrangement, what if you are the empress dowager?" ……”

"Queen Mother----" Looking at the grief-stricken Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager Nalan couldn't help but say that it was better to summon Jun Yuchen back to Beijing first, but she just kept hesitating, and finally said softly: "Please rest assured, the queen mother will take care of the emperor and Chen'er, and the queen mother should also take care of her body, don't be too sad." ”

"You think very well for Hua'er, no wonder he is also single-minded about you. For the two of you, the mourning family is very relieved......".

The Empress Dowager said, slowly stopped her tears, paused and said to Shangguan politely: "You have collected that list properly, or you can always use it in the future." Mo Xue's mourning family only cared about grief back then, but they didn't have any foresight at all. ”

There was a continuous panting between the words, and he covered his mouth and coughed for a long time, "Hey, the women in this harem are like this, all of them have a stomach full of unspeakable bitterness, and they usually look at the beautiful scenery, but at this time they are uncomfortable seeing each other." Liancheng, you will have someone bring Fourteen back, and Wan'er, the time you came out is not short, and you have a hard time, so you should go back to the palace first. ”

Shangguan was silent for a moment, got up and said, "Yes, please take care of the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, and the sons will retire." ”

After Shangguan Wanshu got up and left, the Empress Dowager Nalan helped her mother-in-law to sit up. She was silent for a long time and asked, "Dare to ask the queen mother, what do you mean, do you want me to support Shangguan Wansu to compete with the middle palace?" ”

When the Empress Dowager heard this, she shook her head and said, "No, Nalan Liancheng, now that you have become the Empress Dowager yourself, you naturally know that as long as the Middle Palace does not make a big mistake, then neither the emperor nor anyone can easily abolish the empress." The reason why the mourning family gave this edict to Shangguan Wansu in front of you today is to tell you that if you can help the mourning family to help her mother and son, in the future, the Shangguan family will also remember your kindness. You are also a mother, you should know that this kindness may not be repaid to yourself, but to your children and grandchildren. You can think about such conditions when you go back. Look at what the mourners said, can it be beneficial to you? ”

is very different from her usual impatient personality, but the Empress Dowager Nalan was very quiet on this day. She thought about it, and finally made another cup of tea for the Empress Dowager before replying: "Yes, the son understands it, please rest assured that the queen mother is." ”

The Empress Dowager seemed to be extremely tired, she closed her eyes and nodded a little tiredly. When the Empress Dowager Nalan got up to leave, no one noticed that her eyes were already closed, and the whole person seemed to have fallen into a dark and sweet dream.

After Shangguan Wansu came back from Zizhu Courtyard, she has been restless. She always felt that something big was going to happen, so she struggled to recite the Buddhist scriptures in the inner room for a long time, and finally put down the scriptures in her hand and ordered: "Come on, make a cup of soothing tea for the palace." ”

"Niangniang, this is the Danxin honeydew that the imperial doctor said before."

Ziyun said and held the eight-treasure lacquer plate and presented it, and there was a mutton fat white jade vial lying in it, and said with a smile: "Niangniang, this is the first Tai Tai Doctor Sun personally prepared in Tai Hospital, saying that there are not only red peony, yellow essence, salvia, honey grass and other things, but also high-quality pearl powder, agar paste, winter all day around the stove is inevitably dry and hot, apply evenly before going to bed, the next day can be moisturized all day without worry." ”

Shangguan glanced at it casually, then frowned and said: "You have been thinking about these prices all day long, but this palace thinks that today the empress dowager specially called someone to invite this palace over, and the words and things sent are different." Is it .......?"

Shangguan Wanwan was talking when she suddenly heard the sound of a cup breaking, the voice was sharp and harsh, which made her feel a little frightened. Ziyun was about to scold the little palace maid who committed the crime, when she suddenly heard a series of hurried footsteps from the door.

"! Imperial Concubine Niangniang! There was a scream of the little eunuch outside, and the grandmother sent by Zizhuyuan seemed to scold, and then a little eunuch rushed in desperately, knelt down and hurriedly said: "Emperor Qiqi Concubine Niangniang, the Empress Dowager is critically ill!" ”

"What?!" Shangguan Wanxuan and Ziyun exclaimed in unison, Shangguan Wanxuan was stunned for a while, and only after a moment did she remember to get up, Ziyun on the side hurriedly stretched out her hand to support her, and persuaded: "Don't worry, Niangniang, it's a cold day, or the slave maid will go over for you to take a look." ”

Now that the war between the two countries is ongoing, and Jun Yuxuan is the new monarch succeeding to the throne, all places are uneasy, and the Empress Dowager is highly respected in the country and has always been known for her reputation. If she dies at this time, the vassal kings will go to Beijing to mourn the national funeral, and the soldiers on the frontier will have to discuss one after another.

Shangguan Wanxuan only understood at this time why she specially sent someone to invite her over early this morning, and handed over such an important decree to herself in front of the Empress Dowager. In fact, the Empress Dowager just wanted to warn the Empress Dowager not to try to move her Shangguan Wanshu, because she had such a decree in her hand, that is, she would fall out of favor in the future, and even the Shangguan clan would fall. However, she was able to rely on this decree to preserve the glory and wealth of this life.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Wanxuan couldn't help but burst into tears. She even regretted that she was willful and ruthless in the past, and did not do a little filial piety in front of the Empress Dowager. Now that people are about to leave, she began to regret it, but with so many things, what is the use of regretting?

In the Zichen Palace, Jun Yusulfone naturally got Tongbing for the first time.

It's just that the news he got will be more accurate, to be precise, the Empress Dowager has fallen into a dying posture.

As a grandson, Jun Yuxuan couldn't help but be more anxious, and said in a stacked voice: "Go, go!" Pass all the people from the Tai Hospital, you decide what you need first, I will immediately summon the Taifu and them, and then come! ”

In the Qingfeng Palace, Shangguan Wanxuan couldn't even wait for the chariot, and was helped by a few maids to stumble to Zizhu Courtyard, the cold wind was facing him, only to feel that his eyes were stinging like piercing ice edges, and a feeling of déjà vu struck again.

The Zizhu Courtyard was already in a mess, and there were only a few little eunuchs waiting in the apse, and Shangguan Wanwan didn't wait for the word to be transmitted, and just ran along the corridor path. Shuanghuan was in a hurry to follow behind, followed by his steps, and said in a low voice: "Niangniang...... The Empress Dowager is already seriously ill, Niangniang, you look like this carefully scare the Empress Dowager, slow down, or slow down......"

"Yes, the ...... of the palace" Shangguan Wanxuan hastily stopped at the back door of the inner hall, squeezed his loose cloud temples indiscriminately, covered his chest and gasped, and said blankly: "This palace knows, knows ......"

Shuanghuan saw that she was incoherent and worried, so he tidied up her clothes and said, "Don't worry, the slave is waiting here." ”

Shangguan Wan calmed down, walked in lightly, and was about to step forward to lift the bead curtain, only to hear Empress Zhang choking inside: "Imperial grandmother, imperial grandmother ......" The sadness in the voice was uncontrollable, and Empress Zhang seemed to be crying out of breath. Shangguan Wan couldn't help but be shocked when she heard this, but when she lost her mind, she heard the empress dowager say with difficulty, "Queen...... There are some things that you really don't understand when you're young......"

Empress Zhang cried and complained: "When I first married into the East Palace, my father also instructed me not to embarrass His Royal Highness the Prince's favorite concubine, but my sons really don't understand that the emperor hated her very much, but now she ----."

There was a lot of disdain in her tone, and it sounded more like a hatred, "Since she likes King Ding, why doesn't she follow King Ding?" Morning and evening, it can be seen that she is indeed a woman who is impermanent! ”

"If it is as you say, the great-grandson of the mourning family who is now longing for it...... Where did the fight come from? Queen, you have to remember, it's not that the mourning family is unwilling to help you, it's that you want to glorify the Zhang family, it's right, it's just ......."

It seemed to be a return to the light on the eve of death, and after a few violent coughs, the voice of the Empress Dowager gradually became clear, "Why don't you still understand?" The reason why the mourning family got the edict for her was because her father was willing to pay for the lives of the entire Shangguan clan. Such a promise has to be kept. But if you don't understand, go back and ask your father...... Besides, Shangguan is so sad that she is now a saint, and with her temperament, she is not a cowardly person. If you stop her, you will inevitably fight to the death in the future, and when the time comes, do you think the emperor will stand on your side and help you ......."
