Chapter 56: The Queen Mother's Old Story

Luoyu was thinking quietly when she suddenly heard Luoxue cough twice.

"Cold, huh?" Falling rain took a coat and put it on Falling Snow's back.

"It's okay, it's burning on the kang, it's not too cold." Luoxue smiled and blinked tiredly.

The master was still holding her hand, and he didn't mean to let go at all.

"Let's go sleep when you're sleepy, it's still a while before dawn, and it's not good to be busy during the day." When the rain came, he gently tore off the master's hand, held it in his hand, turned his head and rushed to the snow and said, "Go, go to sleep for a while." ”

Luoxue nodded and went out with her clothes on.

The rain felt the temperature of the master's palm, warm and hot, and sweating, even in her dreams, she clutched it tightly.

Han Shanggong followed Pan Zhen'an to the Taihe Hall and was arranged in a side room.

"Han Shanggong, if you are sleepy, sleep for a while, and call you when the emperor gets up." Pan Zhenan said with a sigh.

"It's okay for me, but my father-in-law should rest well."

"Don't, you just had a high fever a few days ago, I'm afraid you haven't gotten better, but you have to recuperate."

After Pan Zhenan finished speaking, he went out, and after a while, two palace maids came in with a bed and laid it out for Han Shanggong.

The charcoal basin in the house was warm, but Han Shanggong was still not sleepy.

She lay on the bed, covered her legs with the quilt, and gently hammered her back with her hands into fists.

She stroked the scar on her neck with her other hand, although she usually deliberately covered it, but she came out in a hurry tonight, and she didn't care about these things.

She remembered where the scar came from.

She will never forget.

For several years, she has been waiting for the day when the Chen family falls, waiting for the queen's crime to be revealed to the world one day.

Finally, the day came, and she was just about to pour the last barrel of oil on the fire.

The former chief eunuch of Fengluan Palace, Gao Gonggong, had a close relationship with Ding Zhou, and he also had a good relationship with Han Shanggong. Just because the queen was young and careless, the queen mother wanted to find someone to watch her, so she assigned Gao Gonggong to serve in Fengluan Palace.

Later, the queen mother passed away, and the queen was worried that Han Shanggong would show something, so she specially ordered Gao Gonggong to kill Han Shanggong.

Gonggong Gao and Han Shanggong both understood that to put it bluntly, the queen was testing the two.

So that night, Gonggong Gao did not start, but quietly told the truth about the death of the Empress Dowager Han Shanggong. He didn't know before, it was the person next to the queen who said that he accidentally heard it, but the queen mother was no longer there at that time, so he had to tell Han Shanggong about it, so that Han Shanggong could survive and avenge the queen mother.

The queen mother doesn't like the queen, she always feels that this person is quite scheming, and has been blocking the emperor from marrying her as a blessing. It's a pity that the emperor at that time was too young and insisted on accepting the daughter of the Chen family as Fujin, and later she became the queen after the emperor ascended the throne.

After becoming the queen, the queen mother was still dissatisfied with her, and she was also a little worried about the Chen family, so she never had a good face for her, and once persuaded the emperor to appoint her as the queen.

The queen sensed the crisis, and took advantage of the queen mother's illness to take the initiative to serve the queen mother, and took the opportunity to put slow poison into the queen mother's food, and even the imperial doctors could not fight against the queen mother's disease, until three years after the queen mother's death, the young imperial doctor researched the antidote prescription.

Because he was worried that Gong Gao would be killed by the queen, after Gong Gao left, Han Shanggong took a knife and slashed his neck, and then pushed open the window and shouted for help, saying that someone broke into her house.

This matter will slowly fade away.

A few days later, the news of Gao's father-in-law passed away, and Han Shanggong felt very sad.

Father-in-law Gao will not do anything about exchanging his life for his life, let alone about her.

He is the reason why Han Shang Palace has stayed in the palace for so many years, except for the Queen Mother.

That year, Han Shanggong had just entered the palace, and he was assigned to serve the Queen Mother together with Gonggong Gao, just like Luo Yu and Jiang Liu, who accompanied the Queen Mother through ups and downs.

Han Shanggong actually has special feelings for Gao Gonggong, although the two of them didn't say anything, but only they themselves understand what is going on.

Gonggong Gao would rather die than move Han Shanggong, doesn't he have her in his heart?

Before escaping from the West Palace, Han Shanggong deliberately took away the two travelogues next to the pillow.

When she first entered the palace, she was illiterate, but it was her father-in-law who taught her to recognize word by word, and gave her these two books.

Over the past few decades, she has flipped every page of the book back and forth countless times, and several of them have cracked, and the thin sheet of paper simply cannot withstand going back and forth. The pages of the entire book are glowing with paper yellow, and if you smell carefully, there is a smell of books, which has been emitting for decades.

Han Shanggong opened one of them again, looked at the words on it and read it silently in his heart.

A dark blue light came in from the window, and it looked like it was about to light up.

Han Shanggong moved the candle on the table to his eyes, and continued to look at the book she had read countless times.

No matter which passage, she remembers it vividly. This is her affection for her father-in-law Gao, and it is also the sustenance of her husband from youth to old age.

It didn't take long for the emperor to get up.

"Your Majesty."

"What's the matter?" As he spoke, the emperor raised his two arms so that the two palace maids could dress him in court clothes.

"Last night, someone climbed over the wall into the Yunyan Pavilion and set it on fire, Yao Cairen she..."

Pan Zhen paused and met the emperor's cold gaze.

"What do you say? What happened to Yao Cairen? The emperor asked the palace maid who changed her clothes to stop and took two steps to Pan Zhen'an's side.

Pan Zhenan swallowed his saliva and clearly knew his current situation.

If this sentence is not right, the emperor will definitely raise his leg and give him a kick.

"Back to the emperor, Yao Cairen was frightened, choked by the smoke, and the soles of his feet were injured, and he had to ask the doctor on duty for the specific situation, but this morning the slave has already let the young doctor go."

"Did you get burned by the fire?" The emperor's brows furrowed deeply, as if he wanted to eat Pan Zhenan in front of him.

"Back to the emperor, Yao Cairen is a blessed person, and he was not burned by fire."

The emperor didn't speak again, but went out directly in court clothes.

It stands to reason that he should have gone to the morning court this morning.

Pan Zhenan followed closely behind him, beckoning Duan Kui, "What are you looking at?" Hurry up and pass the sedan car! ”

After the emperor got on the royal roll, he first kept a straight face without saying a word, and then scolded a few eunuchs who carried the sedan chair to make them faster.

"Your Majesty, Han Shanggong is still in the Taihe Palace, saying that there are some things I want to tell the emperor, it seems to be about the Queen Mother and the abolished queen."

"I'll talk about it when I get back."

After a while, the emperor arrived at the Yunyan Pavilion.

The east hall of the Yunyan Pavilion had been burned to pieces, all of it was black, and the bed in the inner room could be faintly seen standing in the courtyard, although only a charred empty shelf remained.

The west hall is not as serious as the east hall, but it is also uninhabitable.

The emperor entered the house where it was raining and snowing.

Yao Chuxi had just woken up and was lying on the bed drinking porridge.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?"

The emperor gently pressed her shoulder and motioned for her to lie back, "Don't move, don't move, how are you?" ”

"The concubine is fine, don't worry."

"I heard that your foot hurts, show it to me."

"It's okay, it's just a little injury."

The emperor didn't listen to her, but directly picked up her feet.

Her feet had just been taken out of the covers, and they were still hot. Because her injuries were under medicine, she didn't wear socks, and the dazzling white gauze suddenly entered the emperor's eyes.

"It's a minor injury, but it's still a minor injury?" The emperor said with some blame.

Yao Chuxi kept his head and didn't speak, his attitude seemed to be admitting his mistake.

The emperor turned his head and asked Luoyu, "Has the imperial doctor been here?" What did he say? ”

"Back to the emperor, the young doctor came and said that the little master's body is fine, but you have to be careful with this foot, and you can't delay taking medicine and drinking medicine at all, otherwise it is easy to get infected or scarred."

"Well, you have been following Yao Cairen, I believe in you, you are responsible for taking medicine and drinking medicine, don't be careful."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The emperor turned his head to look at Yao Chuxi again, stretched out his hand to comb her hair, and asked in a soft voice, "Are you scared?" ”

Yao Chuxi didn't make a sound, but hugged the emperor, his nose twitched, and he tried to hold back the tears in his eyes.

Everybody has this problem. Actually, it's not a big deal, and it's not so sad, but once someone comforts you, you can't control your emotions.

The emperor gently patted Yao Chuxi's back, like coaxing a child, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, don't be afraid." ”

Yao Chuxi's voice was crying, "The emperor is wearing court clothes, but he is going to the early court?" ”

The emperor nodded.

"Then the emperor is going quickly, don't delay because of the concubines, the civil and military courtiers are waiting for you alone." Yao Chuxi gently pushed the emperor, trying to break free from his embrace.

The emperor exerted his strength slightly, but did not let go, "It's okay, it was originally the dynasty of the emperor, and today it should be regarded as letting them rest." ”

"Can the emperor find someone to inform? Don't leave them waiting. ”

"Don't worry." The emperor patted her on the back and let go of her, "Drink some porridge quickly, it'll be cold for a while." ”

Luo Yu just wanted to take the porridge bowl and feed the master, but the emperor waved his hand and personally took the porridge bowl and fed it.

Not only was it raining, but even Yao Chuxi was stunned.

"Drink it."

Yao Chuxi nodded with straight eyes, and opened his mouth numbly.

In the morning, the emperor returned to the Taihe Palace.

"Bring Han Shanggong and let me hear what is going on."

Pan Zhen'an agreed, and just about to leave, he turned around and came back, "Your Majesty, the slave still has something to say, and he was delayed in Yunyan Pavilion." ”

"Say it."

"The person who set the fire this time left evidence, and the minions have already detained this person."

"Who?"

"The Chen family's horses."

The emperor didn't say anything, but waved his hand, as if he expected it.

After a while, Pan Zhenan brought Han Shang Palace.

The sun shines well in the morning, and it's warm even in winter.

The queen lay on the bed in the Hidden Pavilion, squinting at the sunlight shining through the window.

The sun shone on her face, forming a slit of light, and it was strange that she didn't feel dazzling.

What she handed over to her brother was probably successful.
