"Your Majesty, the queen will come back safe and sound, the emperor should take care of his body, otherwise the queen will be heartbroken when she sees the emperor so worried." Xiao Yi persuaded him on the side.
"Where did Xiao'er go. Find her as soon as possible. Xuanyuan Rui sorted out his emotions, and when he walked out of the bamboo forest, he already had a steady expression, and ordered in a deep voice, "Xiao Yi, quickly spread my will to find the queen with all my might, and ordered the Yuzhou government to assist Li Yang, and all the counties and counties along the way should be visited, and all the towns and villages should be checked, and no dark corner should be missed, and the queen must be found." ”
"Yes."
At the emperor's will, the Yuzhou government made a big effort to find Mrs. Xuan, and the counties along the way also took action, and Xuanyuan Rui personally went to look for it everywhere, but it was still fruitless after more than ten days.
Xuanyuan Rui wanted to go all over the mountains and rivers to find it, and the Queen Mother urged him to return to Beijing to govern, and returned to the capital in desperation.
The queen mother was afraid that the emperor would never return like the queen, so she waited in the palace for nearly a month, and the emperor finally returned to the palace and settled down.
On this day, the Queen Mother slept hazyly on the soft couch in Ningshou Palace, and woke up to see Xue Fenghui still standing next to the chair to fan her, and said in a low voice: "Hui'er, after fanning for a long time, you are also tired, rest." ”
"Queen Mother, the slave is not tired, the slave is in good health, the weather is hot, I'm afraid that mosquitoes will fall." Xue Fenghui continued to fan herself, in order to please the Queen Mother, she tried her best to make the Queen Mother happy, the emperor did not wait to see her, only to ask the Queen Mother to say a word for her.
"In the past few days, you have served carefully and tried your best, if the emperor has a gentle concubine like you by his side, the mourning family will be relieved, but unfortunately, there is no you in the eyes of the emperor, you have to work hard to please the emperor, let the emperor know your good."
"Slaves and maids can't make the emperor like them, it's all up to the queen mother."
"It's been a few days since the emperor came back, but he has been to Qixia Palace." The Queen Mother was still a little sleepy and asked lazily.
"Back to the Queen Mother, the emperor didn't go to Qixia Palace, and the emperor stayed in Fengyuan Palace every night." Mr. Yikang stepped forward to reply.
"The queen is not in the palace, and the emperor still does not favor the concubines as always." Empress Dowager Duan frowned slightly, as long as there was no emperor and grandson, the knot in her heart would not be untied.
The palace maid made tea and served it, and Xue Fenghui handed the tea bowl in the tray to the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, use tea." ”
Seeing that the queen mother was still worried about the emperor's heirs, she said softly, "Queen Mother, the emperor has not taken the queen back to the palace for a month after leaving the palace, I heard that ...... The emperor was in a bad mood. The queen is so avoiding the emperor and not returning to the palace, she is really too capricious, doesn't this break the palace rules, how can such a queen still be a mother of the world. ”
Xue Fenghui is thoughtful, if the emperor forgets Yun Xiao, he must first abolish her position as queen, so that she will never be able to return to the palace, after a long time, the emperor will inevitably be indifferent to his feelings and pin his feelings on others.
Now the queen is at fault for not abiding by the palace rules, and the queen mother is only in the queen mother's words, but the queen mother is hindered by the thin face of the Yun family, and she still soft-hearted and does not pursue it.
"What do you mean...... If you want to mourn your family, you will abolish the queen. The Queen Mother stared at Xue Fenghui with hard eyes.
"Slaves don't dare." Xue Fenghui bowed his head, knowing that he was too anxious, after all, his status as a maid was too low, almost as good as a palace maid.
"The queen's affairs don't need you to be a girl to discuss, Hui'er, you have to speak and act steadily in front of the emperor." The Queen Mother glanced at Xue Fenghui coldly, and felt slightly unhappy in her heart, Princess Yuping, the youngest daughter, was much more thoughtful than the eldest daughter Feng'er.
"Yes, Hui'er is more than right." Xue Fenghui's chin is beside the Queen Mother, no matter what she says or does, she must be cautious.
"Speaking of which, your mother, Princess Yuping, is too rampant, if Yuping abides by the palace rules and etiquette and respects the queen, the queen will not leave the palace, and the emperor will not leave the palace for many days." The Queen Mother spoke with a slight anger in her tone.
"Hui'er pleads for her mother." Xue Fenghui bowed softly and asked for guilt again.
Princess Yuping behaved perversely, provoked the emperor to force the queen away, and the queen did not think of returning to the palace as soon as she left the palace, and the emperor thought about the queen's safety all day long. This situation worries the Queen Mother, who does not want such turmoil in the palace.
The chief manager of Yikang hurriedly walked in and said: "Queen Mother, Zheng Jieyu of Qixia Palace attempted to hang herself and was discovered by the palace maid. It is said that Zheng Jieyu is bent on death, and the palace maids have stopped Zheng Jieyu from committing suicide three times. ”
The Queen Mother's face sank, "Zheng Qiuyue is the only woman who has been favored by the emperor, and she is not allowed to die, so she is good for the mourning family." ”
"Yes, Manager An has made careful arrangements, and there are people waiting for him day and night."
The Queen Mother shook her head, worried again, the emperor didn't like Qiuyue at all, and Qiuyue was looking for death and life, so she didn't have to put any effort into the emperor's favor, it seemed that it would not work to expect Qiuyue to give birth to a prince.
The Queen Mother couldn't sit still in the palace, "Hui'er, follow the mourning family to drive the Fengyuan Palace." ”
"Yes." Seeing the emperor immediately, Xue Fenghui was overjoyed.
The clear moon sprinkled all over the palace courtyard of Fengyuan Palace, and the night breeze blew the swaying of willow branches.
Xuanyuan Rui looked at the stars and moon for a long time, plucked the strings and chanted the song that he had chanted several times, "Yesterday the wine was beautiful, today people are drunk, love is long, know each other and love each other......"
"The Queen Mother has arrived."
Xuanyuan Rui came back to his senses, hurriedly stopped the chant and walked down the steps of the front porch, and bowed his head to say goodbye, "Erchen to the queen mother, please say goodbye." ”
"Rui'er, I'm still standing in the yard so late, rest early, and I'll have to get up early tomorrow."
"The queen mother is not resting at this time."
"Alas, you are in such a state, where can the queen mother sleep peacefully." The Queen Mother looked at her son's haggard face, shook her head and sighed.
"Queen Mother, the son-in-law is disturbing you old." Xuanyuan Rui said and helped the queen mother to the palace and sat firmly.
"Rui'er, since the queen doesn't want to go back to the palace, then don't think about her, settle down."
"The queen mother doesn't have to worry about ......"
"Rui'er, even if you miss the queen and are trapped by the love of your children, you must also put the interests of the family and the country first. The Dongchen Dynasty must not be without a successor, you must spoil the concubine, as long as you give birth to the prince, you can think about whoever you want, the queen mother will no longer care about your affairs on a snowy night, let Hui'er stay by your side tonight. ”
Xue Fenghui's heart throbbed, hoping that the emperor would have affection and leave her to sleep.
"Don't, son." Xuanyuan Rui resolutely resisted.
Xiao'er left the palace because of Yuping, Xuanyuan Rui knew Princess Yuping very well in his heart, and he would never be the daughter of Princess Yuping.
Xue Fenghui's face turned pale, she lowered her head and bit her lip, and tears fell down her eyes.
The Queen Mother looked at Hui'er's weak tears, felt pity in her heart, and insisted on saying, "Hui'er is docile, understanding, and very good at persuading people, let her talk with you, chat, and your mood will be much better tomorrow." ”
"Princess Yuping's daughter, I won't want it."
"Alas, the mourning family knows that Yuping has hurt your heart, Zheng Jieyu is gentle and virtuous, the emperor can accept it, let Zheng Jieyu sleep tonight, and let her conceive the prince."
"Queen Mother's ......"
"The mourning family knows that you only think about the queen in your heart, but the emperor can't favor a woman alone. Someone came, and it was rumored that Zheng Jieyu came to Fengyuan Palace to sleep. ”
"Queen Mother...... How can a concubine sleep in the queen's palace? Xuanyuan Rui's face sank, if it weren't for Aunt Yuping's boldness to arrange a wedding room in Fengyuan Palace, how could she force Xiao'er to leave the palace and not return.
"Where to pamper the concubine is as you like." The queen mother saw that her son's words were loose, and hurriedly said.
"That's it, Erchen went to sleep in Qixia Palace." Xuanyuan Rui sighed helplessly and stood up.
The queen mother always hopes that she will spoil her concubines, Xuanyuan Rui twisted her eyebrows, and she was helpless, Yun Xiao was infertile, and the queen mother was angry. Since you have to have an heir to the queen mother to feel at ease, then give birth to one, Qiuyue has a gentle temperament, and she is a candidate that Yunxiao is satisfied with, obviously Qiuyue is the most suitable.
Queen Lu Xinyue, "Rui'er, it's right to open a point, there is no affection and fate." ”
Xuanyuan Rui and the Queen Mother parted hands at the gate of Fengyuan Palace, the Queen Mother returned to Ningshou Palace, and Xuanyuan Rui arrived at Qixia Palace.
"The emperor has arrived." The voice of Chief Ann sounded in the silent Qixia Palace, startling a flock of night birds perched on the trees.
"Concubine...... Greetings to the Emperor. Qiu Yue was terrified, and took the palace maid and eunuch and knelt on the ground to greet her.
"Flat." Xuanyuan Rui walked straight into Qixia Palace and sat down on the soft couch.
Qiu Yue Ne followed in, stood aside with lowered eyes, didn't know how to face the emperor, cramped for a moment, and then remembered the procedure of serving the emperor, the emperor must drink a bowl of ginseng tea every night to fall asleep.
"Ginseng tea." She whispered to the palace maid.
The palace maid respectfully served the ginseng tea as ordered, and Qiu Yue nervously stepped forward to hand the tea to the coffee table next to the emperor.
"Stand down." Xuanyuan Rui snorted.
"Yes."
Xuanyuan Rui retired from the eunuchs and palace maids, drank a few sips of ginseng tea, and was already a little sleepy, "Go to bed for me to retire." ”
Qiu Yue bowed her head in response, "Yes." ”
Xuanyuan Rui took off his clothes, changed into an elegant and obscene clothes and lay down, Qiu Yue stood beside the bed and didn't dare to act, her palms were in cold sweat.
Glancing at Qiu Yue, Xuanyuan Rui said, "I ...... I am fortunate to be on that day, I am sorry for the queen in this life and this life. However, you know my affection for the queen, so ......"
"The slave understood what the emperor meant, and Qiu Yue hurriedly caught the emperor's words, and made up her mind not to go to the emperor's bed." She thought that if she died, the emperor would be relieved of her guilt, but now, the queen mother ordered people to watch it closely, and she couldn't even help herself to die.
Qiu Yue knelt on the ground and pleaded, "The slave knows that the emperor and the queen have a deep relationship, the queen was forced out of the palace, the emperor is worried, the slave is also worried, the slave and the maid ask for the order to go out of the palace to find the queen." ”
Xuanyuan Rui sighed in a low voice, "The queen doesn't want to come out to see me, my thousands of troops and horses have not found the queen, and it won't help you to leave the palace, it's better to stay in the palace, the queen mother forced me to favor the concubine, you have to be perfunctory with me." ”
"The slave obeys."
"Get up, I have decreed that your brother be appointed official." Xuanyuan Rui didn't have anything to say to Qiu Yue, thinking of the reward for her family, she said it casually.
"The slave and maid kowtow for their brother, thank the emperor for his grace." Qiu Yue knelt down and bowed deeply.
"Go to bed." Regulus stopped looking at her.
A sentence floated out of the bed that made Qiu Yue's heart beat faster suddenly, and she didn't dare to disrespect the holy decree, Qiu Yue got up and rubbed close to the bed, not daring to look at the person in the bed, wondering in her heart, and went to bed.
Could it be that this is a perfunctory queen mother. Obeying the order to perfunctory the queen mother for the emperor, the idea of Qiu Yue's death was temporarily suppressed, and the queen returned to the palace to apologize for her sins.
The riots caused by the queen's departure from the palace seem to have calmed down.
Xue Shaoqing was removed from his official position, and Wei Changyan gradually fell out of favor since the emperor's accession to the throne, and was replaced by Xiao Yi, a close confidant of the emperor. Wei Changyan was unwilling to fall from the pinnacle of power, and wanted to find a backer to make a comeback, that is, the big backer of the queen mother.
