Chapter 218: The slanting moon sinks into the sea fog
At the mention of Mosan, everyone was stupid. The smile that was still on his face just now disappeared in his eyes and the corners of his lips in an instant, and he couldn't find a trace after all.
The Queen Mother smiled lightly disapprovingly, and ate the lotus root box cake that Concubine Hui worshipped: "Ling Xi is really very thoughtful, although this lotus root cake is fried and cooked, it is not greasy at all, and the entrance is crispy." ”
When everyone heard that the Queen Mother had changed her tone, their hearts couldn't help but relax a lot, and they laughed again and again.
How do you know that the Queen Mother only took a bite, and then turned around and came back: "What kind of person is Mo San, who can be promoted by the emperor, reward the female officials, and serve in front of the emperor every day?" ”
Concubine Hui and Concubine Chun glanced at the queen in unison, as if they wanted the queen and the queen mother to understand. But they have their own plans in their hearts, who would not know the queen mother's thoughts.
Lan Xin smiled calmly and said calmly: "It is said that she is a very talented woman, but the concubine has only met once in a hurry, and she has not asked in detail." I think the emperor also took a fancy to her talent, so he stayed in front of the emperor. A little thing, the Queen Mother is worried about it. ”
The Queen Mother looked at everyone's faces and knew that in fact, Mozambi's secret was no longer a secret in the harem. That's fine, since everyone understands it, and then talk to the queen, you don't have to go around in circles.
Picking up the wet towel at hand, the Queen Mother moistened the corners of her mouth, and wiped the food stains on her lips with warm wetness. "The mourning family is full, today's meal is really much better than the imperial dining room, and it is really rare to have a few of you waiting for the mourning family meal in the near future."
Lan Xin was the first to set an example: "Being able to serve by the side of the Queen Mother and not upsetting the Queen Mother is already a great blessing for concubines." ”
Gao Lingxi also made a gesture to be blessed, but was stopped by the Queen Mother: "Concubine Zhe Fucha went early, and the queen and concubine are left who have given birth to heirs in this palace." Seeing that you have also fought in the month, many things are inconvenient, so you don't have to come to the Cining Palace to serve in the mourning family all day long. When you give birth to the emperor's heir safely, the mourning family will go to Chengqian Palace to visit. ”
"Thank you Queen Mother for your grace." Gao Lingxi was very unhappy in her heart, so in the next few months, she would have to let Concubine Chun do everything she could to win the queen mother's joy. The dissatisfaction and slight unhappiness made Gao Lingxi very annoyed.
Who knew what the Queen Mother said afterwards, which made her want to bite her tongue.
"Wan Rong, you gave birth to Yongzhang before Ling Xi and experienced all these hardships. Otherwise, what should you pay attention to, what you have to be cautious, it is up to you to inform Ling Xi. "The Queen Mother listened to the gentle words, and shocked the two throbbing hearts." There is no side, the mourning family only hopes that Ling Xi can give birth to this child safely, and the harem will be lively for a while. ”
Su Wanrong knew that she couldn't refuse, and she also understood the meaning of the Queen Mother's words: "The concubine will help Concubine Hui to return to the palace, explain all matters clearly, and then tell the people below to be cautious, and remind them to take care of them carefully, so that Concubine Hui can add another little brother to the emperor." ”
The Queen Mother likes smart and sensible palace concubines, so she nodded lovingly: "That mourning family can really rest assured." ”
Gao Lingxi held back the dissatisfaction in her heart and said with a smile: "The concubine will retire first." ”
"Go ahead." The Queen Mother smiled: "Yafu, you go and send a gift to Concubine Hui and Concubine Chun." ”
Obviously, the Queen Mother did not tell Lan Xin to kneel, obviously she had something to ask. And Lan Xin also guessed that it must be related to Mo Sang, and what she could find, how could the Queen Mother not find out. What's more, Mo Sang had come to the Queen Mother's Cining Palace, and Lan Xin knew this matter from the beginning.
Mo Sang is the youngest daughter of Nian Qianyao, maybe she entered the palace with her father when she was a child, and she has already seen the Queen Mother.
Thinking about this in his heart, Lan Xin's face was gloomy and not so good-looking. She was afraid that the Queen Mother would not allow Mo Sang to live at this moment, let alone wait for her to give birth to that innocent child safely.
Sure enough, Lan Xin's worries were not wrong at all. Seeing that everyone had gone out, the Queen Mother went straight to the point and said: "Nian's meritorious achievements are high, and he secretly formed a party to threaten the imperial power of the first emperor, so he was sent down by the first emperor, and the people of the first family were deposed and deposed, beheaded and beheaded, and they were enslaved and exiled, and they were no longer allowed to enter Beijing and become officials, which is already a great punishment." ”
Lan Xin didn't squeak, just listened to the Queen Mother's desolate and slightly muffled voice, noncommittal.
The queen mother looked vain, and when she saw that the queen had nothing to say, she continued: "The emperor is the flesh and blood of the mourning family, how can his heart and mourning family not know. Let's put it this way, even if the evil seed of this year gives birth to an imperial heir, it will definitely not live to full term. Rather than die sooner or later, why don't you break it happily, what does the queen think? ”
"Concubine ......" Lan Xin gritted her teeth lightly and said slowly: "The concubine doesn't dare to have her own thoughts. ”
"That's good, wow." The Queen Mother's tone couldn't be heard as a word of praise: "The mourning family just likes the queen's single-minded allegiance to the emperor." ”
Actually, that child was really innocent. What Lan Xin wanted to say, the only thing he could say was this sentence. She can't change Mo Sang's fate, let alone keep it, but that child can be regarded as Concubine Hui's.
As if seeing the queen's thoughts, the queen mother sighed coldly: "Do you know how much the concubine of the Dunsu Emperor won the favor of the first emperor back then, and gave birth to three sons and one daughter for the first emperor, and she has already far outperformed the mourning family." ”
"The Queen Mother, please forgive the concubine for saying more, the Imperial Concubine of Dunsu has been dead for so long, why do you ......" Lan Xin didn't dare to say it too bluntly, because these days, the relationship between the emperor and the queen mother has really eased a lot. So she didn't want to start another estrangement war between the emperor and the queen mother because of her disobedience and dissatisfaction.
The Queen Mother sank her face and frowned: "It can be said that it is a coincidence, as soon as the mourning family saw the Qiansang of that year, they recalled the suffering imposed on the mourning family by the Dunsu Emperor and the concubine one by one. ”
After a long sigh, the Queen Mother made a serious face: "The three sons and one daughter born to the Emperor Concubine of Dunsu are not all gone in the end!" How smart and wise Fuyi is, how handsome Fuhui is, and how handsome Fupei is the child who looks most like the first emperor, all of these things ended in a bleak ending.
Queen, the mourning family has seen all the blood and rain in the palace and realized a truth, that is, 'don't force it', behind the seemingly infinite scenery, the remaining bitter fruit can only be slowly devoured by yourself. It's a pity that the concubine of Dunsu has such a good background and such a glamorous appearance, but in the end she is not a thin face.
The first emperor did have affection for her, but no matter how deep this affection was, it couldn't match Nian's evil after all. ”
Lan Xin didn't say a word, listening to the Queen Mother's resentment in her heart like a few family treasures, and her heart just gradually cooled down.
"Instead of coming to Japan and finding out that the child born to Concubine Hui is actually the blood of the Nian family, it is better to take precautions as soon as possible and eradicate everything that is unfavorable to the emperor." The Queen Mother made it clear that at this point, she finally hung her head silently.
Lan Xin gasped and said slowly: "Actually, in a few months, Nian's child will be born." At that time, the concubine will naturally arrange everything properly, so that the child will really become the flesh and blood of Concubine Hui. Nian's life is only the last few months, and the concubine has the courage to ask the queen mother to spare this innocent child. ”
"The mourning family can indeed do what the queen wants." The Queen Mother was not annoyed by the queen, on the contrary, she was very approachable: "But have you thought about it, the queen has not, there is no impermeable wall in the world." Those stable women and imperial doctors who delivered babies for Nian's family had to keep their mouths shut forever because of this unsavory secret of the royal family. Even the maids and maids who have seen Mo Sang in the Heart Cultivation Hall every day have to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots without leaving any of them. How many lives will be lost in her hands, have you ever thought about it, queen? ”
Her expression became more and more profound, her eyes were calm, and the cold voice of the Queen Mother did not have a trace of warmth: "Now, the clan has not been exposed that year, although there are many doubts and suspicions in the palace and the court, but she can always hide it." However, in a few months, she had a big belly and a bloated body, she suddenly appeared in front of the civil and military officials, pointed to the emperor's nose and said, the flesh and bones in her belly are the children that the emperor has prepared to pass on to Concubine Hui, what kind of situation will it become, have you ever thought about it? ”
Lan Xin's body shook, almost unsteady. The Queen Mother's words are sharp, but there is nothing wrong with it. If the emperor can really convince Mo Sang, he can only give birth to this child outside the palace. Why risk bringing her into the palace?
It is clear that from the very beginning, Mo Sang has already remembered his identity and future. How could she be willing to let Concubine Hui raise her
Flesh and bones, that was her last chance to turn over, her to turn over for Nian's.
Seeing that the queen's heart was already trembling, the queen mother breathed a sigh of satisfaction: "Lan Xin, the mourning family knows that you are kind and want to preserve the emperor's bloodline." But when the judgment continues, there will be troubles, the emperor is still young, and there will never be fewer heirs. But the sinner of the Nian clan, once he gave birth to an imperial heir, it would be a catastrophe for the Qing Dynasty, and it was the most reluctant thing for the first emperor to see. ”
The tone became more and more solemn, and the Queen Mother tightly grabbed Lan Xin's wrist: "Think about it clearly, do you really want the emperor to take the risk of violating the holy decree of the first emperor and cover Mo Sang for giving birth to this child?" If at that time, the situation is out of control, what face do you want the emperor to live in the world? ”
Lan Xin only felt that his wrist was about to be broken by the Queen Mother, and the pain was a little unbearable: "The concubine will inevitably persuade the emperor to knock out the dragon fetus in Mo's womb and drive it out of the palace." ”
"Nope." The Queen Mother gritted her teeth and said: "The mourning family does not allow anyone from the Nian family to be powerful and prosperous in front of the mourning family, and no one related to the Nian family is allowed to confuse the emperor, let alone allow her to leave the Forbidden City alive." You are the queen, Lan Xin, you are the queen of the main palace of the Qing Dynasty, you must have a way to do it without knowing it, right? ”
