Chapter 221: The Decision of the Three Princes
Emperor Qin Yuan gave Qin Huan one last chance!
After Qin Huan kowtowed, he retreated directly, and when he took another step, Qin Huan completely cut off his affection for Emperor Qin Yuan.
He will never let anyone control his fate again.
Cheap grandfather is the same as cheap father, and he doesn't want to be him.
In this case, he no longer needs to worry about that little bit of family affection.
Emperor Qin Yuan also fell ill after Qin Huan left, but he did not summon any imperial doctors back to the palace to diagnose the pulse.
The news of his relapse from his old illness was kept under wraps.
Qin Huan is not as good as a woman to his uncle, in addition to Qin Yu, he has many princes.
Qin Yu has never fought with the crown prince for anything, but the three princes are different.
Emperor Qin Yuan encouraged his sons to compete, and even used the three princes to sharpen the crown prince, but he never thought that his sons would kill each other in the future.
He tried his best to keep the dispute within a certain range, and he also had the confidence to close his eyes and untie the knot between them.
He doesn't ask how good the crown prince who ascended the throne can be to the three princes, he just wants his sons to live safely.
In the harem, Gu Changle felt that he was not as valued by the queen mother as before, and his grandmother's own sister Concubine Xiao was a little negligent to her.
Gu Changle didn't show it on his face, but he already understood in his heart that it was precisely because of Gu Mingzhu's appearance that she was given a cold reception.
Because of his concerns, Gu Changle didn't stay in the harem for too long, and after saying a few words with the queen, he met Concubine Xiao again, and she hurriedly left the palace.
Concubine Xiao prepared a lot of tonic bird's nest for Gu Changle, saying that she would take it back to recuperate for Xiao's body.
Waiting for Gu Changle to leave, Concubine Xiao's eyes slowly narrowed, "This time, my sister is afraid that she will kick the iron plate, I thought that my sister would support the emperor, but I didn't expect my sister to let Gu Changle and the emperor's eldest grandson get close." ”
In the past, she listened to Xiao's words very much, but after Gu Yuan appeared, Concubine Xiao found that her sister was not so powerful.
She also had the intention of breaking away from the Xiao family's control.
The Xiao family partnered with the emperor's eldest grandson to run a fat powder shop, and Concubine Xiao also heard about it.
"Mother."
From behind the screen, the three princes flashed out, his appearance was very similar to Emperor Qin Yuan's youth, and he was heroic.
"I saw that my father was completely cold to Mrs. Xiao, and I heard that he admired Gu Yuan very much."
The third prince laughed at himself: "I have always been respectful to my aunt all these years, but I didn't expect her heart to be biased towards the prince, and her son and you were all tricked by her." ”
Concubine Xiao pursed the corners of her mouth, "Without her guidance that day, I wouldn't have been able to give birth to you smoothly, we must always remember her kindness." ”
"Mother, that day, the son asked to marry Gu Changle with his eldest son, and Zhen Guogong said that she was still young and it was not easy to marry early, but the son has not seen Gu Changle with the emperor's eldest grandson recently, and if she marries the emperor's eldest grandson, she is not young?"
"I'm afraid that Zhenguo Gong is not optimistic that his son can obtain the throne!"
The third prince pursed a cold expression on his lips, "She is unkind, and it is not easy to blame me." Mother, why did you say that the crown prince and the Nine Emperor brothers quarreled? The Nine Emperors were angry and sick by the crown prince? ”
"Huh?" Concubine Xiao was much more serious, "Is there any news from your people in the East Palace?" ”
The third prince lowered his voice: "The prescription given by the crown prince to his father may be a bit problematic, and the ninth emperor brother thought of his compatriots and asked the prince to take the initiative to be honest with his father...... The crown prince blamed the Nine Emperor Brothers for their evil words to confuse the public, and there was absolutely no problem with the prescription. ”
"Is there a problem with the prescription, or is it ......?"
Concubine Xiao grabbed her son's arm, "Have you checked it out?" ”
The third prince shook his head and said: "What kind of medicinal materials are used in the prescription, the son is still unclear, but the son has already made people pay attention to the residue of the decoction used by the father." ”
"When the son has the conclusive evidence, he will naturally talk to his father about it, Qin Yu treats the prince as a brother and ignores his father, and his son will not learn from him."
Concubine Xiao told uneasily, "You must be careful, if you don't get this kind of thing right, not only will you not be able to win Your Majesty's trust, but you are more likely to attract the prince's revenge." ”
"Even if my son doesn't do anything, can the prince spare me? It's better to fight, and the prince's body is ...... Mother, my son will not let you be subservient to the queen again! ”
How can the daughter of a squire compare to the dignity of the Xiao family?
"In the future, my aunt will bow before you, and you don't need to listen to her anymore."
The third prince swore and said.
Concubine Xiao sighed lightly, "If you can suppress her, it will be a good thing, but your uncles still listen to her more, and the Xiao family is still holding it in her hands!" Without the support of the Xiao family, the emperor also lost a help. ”
"In fact, my son has never really taken a fancy to the Xiao family, and the uncles are extremely mediocre and can't help me. I am respectful to my aunt, more because of the prince of Zhenguo and the nobles married to the daughter of the Xiao family! ”
"The mother concubine was originally the highest-status among the married daughters of the Xiao family, and now that the Duchess of Zhenguo has relapsed from her old illness, you should share her worries and let her recuperate with peace of mind."
The third prince said softly: "In addition to the queen, your status in the harem is the most noble, and you summoned your sisters to the palace to talk, even the queen mother can't stop it." ”
"Mother, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
“…… But your aunt's temperament ...... I'm afraid that if it doesn't work, she will definitely take revenge on me when she recovers. ”
Her fear of Shaw was not something that could be overcome in a day or two.
"Even if she recovers from her illness, I am afraid that she has no intention of retaliating against her mother. Every year when her old illness recurred, the Duke of Zhenguo would personally enter the palace and beg His Majesty to send a doctor. ”
"But this year, Zhen Guogong did not enter the palace, and Gu Changle had no intention of revealing that Zhen Guogong was very busy...... Mother, isn't it obvious, Zhen Guogong has become wary of his aunt because his eldest son has returned. ”
"In the past, she would enter the palace every ten days and a half months, or be summoned by her father, but in the past few months, her father has not mentioned her once. Qin Huan, who had just brought Gu Changle into the palace, was punished to go to the Taimiao ......"
The third prince analyzed: "The son is also a man, to say something that the mother doesn't like to hear, in the heart of a man, the heir inheritance is the heaviest." Zhen Guogong, the brother of his father and emperor for many years, has a temper that is at least in tune. Gu Yuan did not come back, Zhen Guogong naturally attached the most importance to Gu Jin, but the more outstanding Gu Yuan returned to Beijing, and it was impossible for Zhen Guogong not to scruple Gu Yuan. ”
"My son knows very well that Gu Yuan and his children are not less targeted at their aunt."
"Are you talking about Gu Mingzhu? For a while, she said that she was as stupid as a fat pig and a stupid nymphomaniac, and for a while, she was a stunning beauty with both talent and appearance! ”
Concubine Xiao pressed her forehead, "I am looking forward to the Spring Festival banquet as soon as possible, and I can also see Gu Mingzhu, who is rumored a lot, with my own eyes." ”
"The person my son values more is Gu Ruyi!"
The third prince's eyes flashed, and he said in a low voice: "If there is a chance, the mother concubine may wish to mention to Mrs. Gu, can you let Gu Ruyi marry your eldest grandson?" ”
"What? You asked him to marry a medical woman? ”
"What's wrong with the medicine girl? At least she can save her father's life! If there is a case at this time, the son and you will have to be martyred for the father! ”
