218 The Nine Heavens (172)

"Mother, mother!"

The little emperor woke up in his sleep, his hands still scratching in the air.

"Hooray, did you have a nightmare?"

The little eunuch Qian Si came in from outside.

Stretched out his hand and touched the little emperor's head, which was covered with cold sweat.

His hands were warm and soft, and the little emperor couldn't help but tremble, and said in a low voice: "I dreamed of ......"

"Long live the lord, did you dream of Chen Niangniang?"

Qian Si asked tentatively.

Chen Niangniang? Chen Yingxiu? No, the little emperor shook his head, but he didn't say it, because he dreamed of the Empress Dowager Xi, in the dream, the Empress Dowager Xi cried to him in a low voice: "Emperor, I gave birth to you in October, even if I took the medicine primer, but it was to give birth to you, without the medicine primer, my mother would not be able to conceive you, that is a recipe for giving birth to a child." ”

In fact, the little emperor was originally suspicious of the bones under the peony flower, and the east was not a good thing, and he didn't know how many ghosts were smashed behind his back, otherwise how would Cining Palace

The manager came to Toucheng, and there was such a thing as Mama Li spreading rumors? It's all behind the scenes, it's just to see who has more mana. It doesn't matter whether he is the biological son of the Empress Dowager of the West, the important thing is that this matter was turned out, his biological mother actually ate human brains back then, and he, the emperor, was born because of this, what is this called? It will make the world laugh. So this mother must not admit that he must create a flawless life experience, which is originally a concubine, even if it is the son of a palace person, what can he do? It's better than the son of a poisonous woman.

Therefore, he sent the Empress Dowager Xi to the cold palace, and on the surface he issued a silencing order, and the palace was not allowed to talk about it, but in fact, he privately ordered people to spread the news: Today's Long Live Lord is the son of Chen Yingxiu, a palace person, and his biological mother was persecuted and died by the Empress Dowager Xi. The Empress Dowager of the West was a mother who was expensive to her son, and she was very domineering, and later she listened to the government, and her reputation was not good enough, so she exchanged her reputation for the little emperor's pro-government, and cleared all obstacles on the road of pro-government, and this deal was too cost-effective.

But after all, it was a mother-son connection, and the little emperor dreamed of the Queen Mother of the West.

"When?"

The little emperor took the tea sent by Qian Si, didn't look at it, and drank it all in one gulp.

"It's the third watch." At that moment, there was a sudden commotion outside.

The emperor's bedroom, who dares to shout?

Qian Si hurriedly walked out, quickly turned back, lowered his head and said, "Long live Lord, there is a fire in the cold palace." ”

The little emperor was shocked: "What? Where is it? Is there anyone ......"

"Mother, the one in the west...... Didn't come out. ”

The little emperor was paralyzed there, his mouth wide open, his eyes widened, and it took a long time for him to cry: "Mother......"

"Long live the Lord's Day of mourning."

"I ...... I'm going to check it out. “

The little emperor jumped out of bed, and Qian Si hurriedly said: "Long live the Lord will give people a mouth like this." “

The little emperor was stunned for a moment, stood there and nodded: "Yes, you are right, Niangniang is gone, it is irretrievable, the next step is to see how to make this matter beneficial to us." “

"There is only a palace maid named Pearl by Niangniang's side, nothing happens, why is she okay if something happens to Niangniang, you might as well try it for a trial, maybe you can ask something."

The little emperor thought the same: as long as he was tortured, he could always ask what he needed.

Soon, the Empress Dowager of the East Palace also knew about the fire in the cold palace.

"It's not going to burn, is it?" Her first reaction was that there was nothing wrong with her Cining Palace.

"Rest assured, the fire has been extinguished, it is said that the kitchen of the cold palace is on fire, our mother, in the end, is from a small family, what is this good run to the kitchen, this is really unlucky, died inside."

The eunuch whispered, his tone flattering.

Sure enough, the Empress Dowager immediately became energetic: "What, the one in the west is dead?" “

"Yes, I don't know what she's doing in the kitchen, maybe her hands are itchy, and she wants to do something to send to the Lord Long Live, won't the emperor always use this set of invitations when the emperor is here?"

The Empress Dowager Dong smiled: "Okay, I didn't expect her to be two years younger than me, and she went to see the first emperor early, well, I am also relieved to have her serve the first emperor underground." “

The Empress Dowager's good mood didn't last long, and the next morning, Qian Si, the most favored little eunuch around the Long Live Lord, came over to deliver a decree that all the eunuchs and maids in Cining Palace would be sent to the Shen Penal Division.

The Empress Dowager was shocked: "What is this for?" I have never heard of sending so many people to the Criminal Division. “

"Yes, mother, okay, don't you send it, isn't this an accident? There is a palace maid named Pearl in Changchun Palace, Niangniang knows, right? “

"A palace maid, where do I know where to go?"

"Niangniang doesn't know, the palace maids and eunuchs of Cining Palace must know, and they will know if they are sent to the Shen Criminal Division."

The Empress Dowager immediately understood: "You mean that the people in my palace and the people in Changchun Palace plotted to kill her?" ”

"Niangniang may not know about this, it has nothing to do with Niangniang, and these minions will know about it." Qian Si said with a wave of his hand, "Take it all away." ”

The Empress Dowager Dong was angry and stretched out her hand to block the door: "Who dare in my opinion?" ”

Qian Si smiled coldly: "Niangniang, this is the will of the Long Live Lord, since it has nothing to do with Niangniang, why do you have to wade into this troubled water, these uncompetitive minions are not worth it." “

The Empress Dowager Dong is not stupid, in a place like the Prudent Criminal Division, as long as people go in, you can say whatever you ask them to say.

She was furious: "I want to take people away today, unless...... Unless you step on my corpse. I don't believe it, the emperor dares to persecute his mother-in-law? “

Qian Si walked over and whispered in the ear of the Empress Dowager Dong: "Niangniang, you know whose son the Long Live Lord is, he doesn't even care about his biological mother, do you really think he will give you face, what a face." ”

The Empress Dowager was so angry that she almost fainted, and she raised her hand to hit: "Dog minion, I'll kill you." ”

Qian Siyi held her hand: "Niangniang, your hand hurts carefully." ”

As she spoke, she pushed hard to the side, and the Empress Dowager staggered and held on to the wall without falling.

Qian Si commanded the guards to push the palace people and eunuchs out, and only the Empress Dowager Dong was left alone in the entire Changchun Palace, crying and falling to the ground: "First Emperor, open your eyes and see, your bones are not cold, the emperor treats me like this, this is a big rebellion." ”

When Luo Fan entered the palace, he happened to meet the palace maid and eunuch who was pushed and walked away, crying.

"What is this?"

He recognized that these were all people from Cining Palace, and immediately stopped Qian Si and questioned.

Qian Si glanced at him: "General Luo, I am acting on the orders of the emperor, so don't ask more." ”

"Hooray? Come with me to see Banzai,"

He grabbed Qian Si's arm and whispered in his ear: "Little Liu, don't make trouble, I heard that there is a fire in the cold palace, and the west is gone, what else are you going to make trouble?" “

Qian Si smiled coldly: "I don't know if the knife didn't cut me, General Luo." “

His tone was sarcastic, and a smile appeared on his lips.

Luo Fan was stabbed by his eyes, and lowered his head: "I know your grievances, long live the Lord has given you Zhaoxue, and you are also on the jade plate." “

"I don't know what General Luo means, he is ordered to do things, why did he mention Zhaoxue and Jade Saucer? General Luo, you have recognized the wrong person. “

Qian Si struggled his arm out, hugged his fists and said, "Please bear with me, no one can stop this matter today." “
