Chapter 176

Although King Qing is not my own royal brother, he is also an authentic royal bloodline, and even his father did not kill him. If he had believed more in his father, he wouldn't have had to escape. As his wife, why should you kill them all? ”

Qu Muge tried to unravel her.

Bai Lingting said nervously: "In case he comes back one day, it will only drag down our mother and son, his life is over, but the child in my belly has to live openly, his father is a virtuous king who died in the line of duty, not a rebel king with a fake identity!" ”

Qu Muge continued to persuade: "It is said that he has a high fever for days and has become a fool, even if he comes back, as long as the Queen Mother doesn't say it, his father will not mention the old past." ”

Bai Lingting was a little hesitant and asked, "Really?" What if I get better one day? ”

Qu Muge was a little impatient, and said: "That's it, it's useless to talk to you about this matter, you just treat him as dead, go back and wait for childbirth in peace." ”

Qu Muge really wanted to save King Qing's life, but now that he has burned out his brain, he can't pose any threat to her; Second, Emperor Yong did not plan to dispose of King Qing, if she really killed King Qing, this would become her handle for the rest of her life.

She doesn't want to be in anyone's hands.

So Qu Muge discussed with Gu Nanye in private.

As for how to place a fool, Gu Nanye had many methods, and he was very pleased to see that Qu Muge had not become hard-hearted in the struggle for power.

On the other hand, after the funeral period of Master Gu for 100 days, Mrs. Gu entered the palace again and asked Emperor Yong to marry Taixuan, and this time, Emperor Yongdi finally nodded happily.

The Ministry of Rites regarded this matter as a first-class major event and immediately began to plan.

Qin Tianjian divined several auspicious days, and finally Qu Muge himself chose an auspicious day on June 16 next year, and the engagement gift was set on Qu Muge's birthday in March next year, the same day as the ceremony.

The lifelong event was finalized, Qu Muge let out a long breath, and he was extraordinarily proud, wishing that time would be faster!

In the busyness of government affairs and marriage, summer goes to autumn.

In a heavy rain, Emperor Yong's old illness relapsed, coughing up a pool of blood in front of the courtiers.

This pool of blood was poured in the hearts of hundreds of officials, and also in the hearts of the clansmen, and everyone understood that Emperor Yong did not have much time.

Qu Muge half-knelt at the head of Emperor Yongdi's bed with red eyes, and fed him the decoction with his own hands, hoping that time would slow down at this moment.

Emperor Yong slowly pushed open the medicine bowl, and said in his throat like a broken bellows: "Don't drink it, I want to talk to you." ”

Qu Muge turned his head and put down the bowl and said, "Then we'll drink it later." ”

Emperor Yong looked at her, showed a loving smile, and said, "In a blink of an eye, you are about to get married, and I don't know if I will wait for that day." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Qu Muge's tears couldn't hold back, and he choked up: "Father, don't talk nonsense, Ge'er is waiting for you to send me to get married." ”

Emperor Yong said: "When I took you back to the palace, you were thin and short, a small one, but I didn't expect that in two years, you would grow into a big girl, and you could also take on the government, which made me very pleased." I wanted to take care of more rivers and mountains for you, so that you could relax, but at the moment, it seems that it will not work. However, with Gu Hou here, I am not particularly worried, but I can leave with peace of mind......"

Qu Muge cried: "Father, don't talk nonsense! You have to get better quickly, I don't understand anything, and you want you to teach me by hand! ”

Emperor Yong shook his head and said: "I am an incompetent emperor, I have made no achievements for more than 20 years, and I can't even teach my son well. If it weren't for Gu Hou, I wouldn't even be able to keep the mountains and rivers of my ancestors, so what can I teach you...... I have been sitting on the dragon chair for twenty years, without my close relatives and teachers, I am too lonely and tired. I want to rest......"

Qu Muge was afraid that he would lose the will to live, so he encouraged: "You talk nonsense!" You know how to make good use of people, trust Gu Hou, and reduce talents without sticking to one pattern, and you dare to break through the old rules, whether it is constitutional reform or changing the clan inheritance, who dares to do it among the emperors? How can it be said that there is no achievement! ”

Emperor Yongdi smiled, wanted to argue but had no strength, so he had to nod and said intermittently: "I can only close my eyes if I do this last thing well...... Take pen and ink, and you will write your will for me. ”

Emperor Yong issued a decree to convene the clan and the cabinet, please come out with the ancestral code, and ask that the imperial daughter inherit the throne be written into the clan code.

Such meetings have been convened no less than ten times since May, but this time, everyone was extremely cautious and did not rush to start arguing, because they had seen Emperor Yongdi vomit blood with their own eyes, and they all knew that there must be a result today.

Qu Muge had not participated in this kind of meeting before, but Emperor Yongdi would tell her about the meeting.

This time, she accompanied Emperor Yong on the sickbed to attend the meeting, and said directly to the point: "The opinions of the elders and adults, my father is very clear, but this matter has been discussed for half a year, and no agreement has been reached. ”

The whole hall was surprised, and the reformers led by Lord Ge hurriedly said, "Princess, no! ”

Qu Muge shook his head and said, "It's okay, the minority obeys the majority, it's very fair." ”

There was a lot of discussion among the conservatives and the reformers, and their numbers were in the majority, and if they voted, the princess would never have succeeded to the throne.

Empress Dowager Yu, as the patriarch of the royal clan, spoke: "If the emperor and the princess mean to vote, the mourning family has no opinion, what about the other adults?" ”

The old-fashioned and reformists nodded in agreement, and the reformers, at Qu Muge's insistence, had no choice but to agree.

Aunt Mo Xin brought a piece of paper, and the words "agree" and "oppose" were written on the paper.

This vote was not anonymous, Aunt Mo Xin first asked Emperor Yong to choose, and Emperor Yongdi directly pressed his fingerprint on the word "agree".

The second is Empress Dowager Yu.

After Empress Dowager Yu pressed the handprint, she picked up the paper and blew it, and said, "The mourning family also agrees." ”

The clan relatives stood up in surprise, and someone asked aloud: "Queen Mother, are you ...... Are you mistaken, this is a discussion on whether to agree that the princess has the right to inherit the throne! ”

Empress Dowager Yu put the paper back on the tray and said, "These days, the mourning family has thought and thought, whether it is Man'er or Ge'er, the emperor's princesses are extremely good, as long as it is the emperor's blood, why not?" ”

Everyone was stunned, and instantly realized what Empress Dowager Yu meant.

If the princess can inherit the throne, the first to bear the brunt should be the eldest princess Li Muman.

Now it's hard for the old school.

The old-fashioned people, some of them are the only empress dowagers, but some are really patriarchal and can't accept the female emperor.

As a result of this change, the old guard agreed and opposed, and the situation changed slightly.

When Emperor Yong heard what the Queen Mother said, he whispered to Qu Muge with some annoyance: "Your imperial sister, you have also thought about it......

Qu Muge went to Emperor Yong's ear and said: "Yesterday, the Duchess of Zhuguo entered the palace, took the little prince into the palace to visit the Queen Mother, and talked to the Queen Mother in private for a while. ”

"Lianjia?" Emperor Yong was surprised, the relationship between the Zhuguo Mansion and the Gu family was very good, and he didn't expect that even the family would also think about the throne.

Qu Muge said: "It was Mrs. Gu who made a special trip to ask the Duchess of Zhuguo. ”
