Chapter 807: Public Opinion
Although Zhao Changqing did not say it explicitly, his disapproval was already evident.
Yin Xiaoxiao didn't explain more.
People have different temperaments and temperaments. Zhao Changqing is sleek and thoughtful, good at calculation, but he also lacks enthusiasm and kindness, and he can't understand her approach at all.
And she can act as worthy of herself, without having to explain it to everyone.
"I'm here to discuss with you and go home." Yin Xiaoxiao opened the topic: "The Lu Wangfu and the Min Wangfu are quite close to each other, so we might as well leave the palace together and go back to the house together." ”
Zhao Changqing was also full of apprehension, with one more person to accompany him, he was also more down-to-earth, and nodded when he heard the words.
Yin Xiaoxiao said in a low voice: "Before leaving, let's go to Jiaofang Hall to thank you, and then go to the East Palace and Fulin Palace to thank you." ”
Zhao Changqing nodded again.
The two led the four children to the Jiaofang Hall together.
Empress Dowager Yu didn't see them, so she only ordered Zhilan to pass on the message: "After returning to the house, stay in the house with peace of mind and raise the children carefully." Do not walk around the house at will. ”
Zhao Changqing and Yin Xiaoxiao already knew that what was waiting for them was the fate of being placed under house arrest, and they were a little gloomy when they heard the words, but they did not show it on their faces, and knelt down outside the palace together to kowtow and thank them.
Go to the East Palace again and say goodbye to Xiao Yuhan.
Xiao Yuhan and Yin Xiaoxiao looked at each other, their hearts flowing with strong bitterness, and their eyes were full of desolation.
The former close friends of the boudoir have come to this point for some reason.
Zhao Changqing said two sentences: "Thanks to the imperial sister-in-law's intercession for our mother and son, we were able to leave the palace." ”
Xiao Yuhan calmed down and said softly: "This matter is the work of the seventh brother and sister, and you should thank her as well." After a pause, he said in a low voice: "Creation makes people, their brothers kill each other, and the trouble has reached this point today." There has never been a grudge between our concubines. I have never held a grudge against you. ”
"If you need my help in the future, you will send someone into the palace to deliver a letter, and I will do my best and never stand idly."
Zhao Changqing was full of gratitude and thanked him again and again.
Yin Xiaoxiao's eyes suddenly turned red.
She knew very well that Xiao Yuhan's words were meant for her.
But how can she not blame King Min, how can she not blame herself?
If it weren't for the rebellion of King Min to assassinate Emperor Jian'an, Emperor Jian'an would not have died, and the Great Qi Dynasty would not have changed the day.
The new emperor has ascended the throne, and Xie Mingxi is now the queen of the Middle Palace. As a former queen, Xiao Yuhan lives in the palace, how embarrassing is his identity?
After a few years, Sheng Hong and his wife have gained a firm foothold in the palace, but I am afraid that Xiao Yuhan's life will be even more difficult.
A thousand words, which cannot be said at this time.
Yin Xiaoxiao had red eyes and said in a low voice: "How precious the imperial sister-in-law is!" ”
Xiao Yuhan twisted his head to the side, tears sliding out of the corners of his eyes.
……
Zhao Changqing and Yin Xiaoxiao finally went to Fulin Palace.
Xie Mingxi had expected them to come, and when they met, he didn't wait for the two of them to open their mouths, and said, "Between us, Xie Lai Xie doesn't have to say anything about going outside." ”
"Don't resent Sheng Hong either, you two. He also did not want to kill each other, but King Min of Lu committed the felony of murdering the Son of Heaven, and there was no way to live. What he can do is to end this matter as soon as possible and save the lives of your mother and son. ”
"After leaving the palace, you will live in the palace with peace of mind, and your clothing and food will be two levels lower than in the past. However, it will always ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing. ”
"The second sister-in-law has to raise a pair of children, and the fifth sister-in-law has to raise Brother Ting in addition to Brother Lin. I will send two imperial physicians to return home with you, and you will be relieved that the imperial physician will take good care of the child's body in the future. ”
Zhao Changqing was grateful: "Thank you to the seventh brother and sister." ”
Sending the imperial doctor to the palace is the most affordable reward.
With the care of the doctor, the children have an extra layer of protection. More importantly, Xie Mingxi used this move to tell everyone that the emperor and queen were protecting the Lu Wangfu and the Min Wangfu.
At this point, the last trace of resentment in Zhao Changqing's heart quietly dissipated.
In all fairness, swapping positions with each other, she simply couldn't do this.
Yin Xiaoxiao did not say thank you. Between her and Xie Mingxi, there is no need to say half a polite word. She directly opened her mouth to ask for Brother Ting'er's degree: "Brother Ting'er will go back to the Fujian Mansion with me, and he can't miss his share of the clothes in the future." ”
Xie Mingxi smiled dumbly: "Don't worry! Never forget! ”
Yin Xiaoxiao was relieved and muttered: "Anyway, if there is anything that cannot be solved, I will order someone to send a letter into the palace." You don't care. ”
From now on, mother and son will rely on Xie Mingxi's posture!
Xie Mingxi couldn't cry or laugh, and nodded in response.
……
That night, Zhao Changqing and Yin Xiaoxiao went out of the palace and returned home together.
When the news spread, the ministers couldn't help but sigh in private.
The emperor and queen acted with a kind and generous attitude.
Compared with Emperor Jian'an, who is cautious and narrow-minded, the new emperor is more than a step stronger. Xie Mingxi's performance in these days is far better than that of Empress Xiao back then, which shows the bearing of Empress Daqi.
The next day, it was reported that Xie Mingxi entered Cining Palace to serve the Empress Dowager Li, and Xie Mingxi was praised inside and outside the palace.
Daqi governs the Tao with filial piety, even if it is an appearance, it is extremely beautiful.
I don't know who said Queen Xie's words, which moved everyone even more.
"The imperial grandmother has been seriously ill for several years, and the queen mother has been worried about the palace affairs and has no time to serve the illness, and her heart has always been haunted. Today, I can come to serve the imperial grandmother on behalf of my mother, share the worries of the queen mother, and fulfill my filial piety for the imperial grandmother, no matter how hard it is, I am also willing. ”
"From this day on, I would like to serve my grandmother all the time. The emperor's grandmother's illness is not good, and I will not take over the palace affairs for a day, nor will I be in charge of the phoenix seal. ”
What a filial Empress Xie!
What a queen Xie who does not value power and has a noble character!
In just a few days, Empress Xie's virtuous name spread throughout the palace and beyond.
In contrast, the Empress Dowager Yu, who has the sole power, is a little criticized.
A granddaughter-in-law serves her grandmother, of course, as she should. As a daughter-in-law, she only cares about the phoenix seal and palace affairs, and doesn't care much about her mother-in-law's illness, so it is a bit too much to send her daughter-in-law to do it for herself.
The upright and upright Lin Yushi immediately went to the fold and participated in the Queen Mother's book.
At the court meeting, all the civil and military officials were in the court, and Lin Yushi's slightly indignant and passionate voice echoed in the Jinluan Palace: "...... What the Empress Dowager did, she could not be called a filial piety word to the Empress Dowager Li, and she could not be called a word of kindness to the Empress Dowager. The minister should not have said that the queen mother was at fault. It's just that since the minister is the imperial history, he must not retreat because of the fear of the power of the queen mother. ”
"Today, the ministers impeached the Queen Mother."
"The minister knows that the emperor is filial to the queen mother, and the son does not say anything about the mother and son."
"As the saying goes, self-cultivation governs the world. The emperor is the Son of Heaven, and family affairs are also state affairs. If the emperor acquiesces and connives, because of the word filial piety, all the behaviors of the queen mother are acquiesced and connived, it is the misfortune of the heavenly family and the misfortune of the country. ”
