Chapter 334: Bold
"I guess it's for Jintu's business!" Ye Xi said. "Since the Queen Mother wants the Gu family to weave a bigger brocade, naturally how big it is, and whether there are subtle changes in the pattern, I always have to advise."
"If only it were for the sake of Jintu." Qin fidgeted nervously. "But if it's really just a matter of Jintu, then the Queen Mother will send someone to the Gu family another day, where to summon it."
Although this is something that others envy, she is still very worried.
What the hell is in the palace, who knows if something will happen.
Naturally, she just wanted the picture to go smoothly and then leave the palace smoothly.
"What is it for, naturally we will soon know, why should Mrs. Gu worry. With such a noble status as the Queen Mother, there is naturally no need to embarrass lowly people like us. ”
"That's what I said." Qin gritted his teeth.
Even if you are very nervous, you can only wait quietly.
waited until the birthday banquet was over, and then someone came to them and took them to Cining Palace to see the Queen Mother.
In the end, Cining Palace is a place specially prepared for the Empress Dowager, but all the people who live in it are widows, so Cining Palace is a little remote.
Even if you are the queen mother's concubine, after all, she is the widow left by the first emperor, and the hustle and bustle of the palace is incompatible with the women here.
The birthday banquet of the Queen Mother in the Chonghua Palace was so noisy and lively, but the Cining Palace was very quiet.
After meeting the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother first said something about Jintu. In the end, he praised the brocade picture presented by the Gu family, and knew that the flower was made by Ye Xi, so he also praised Ye Xi.
Then the Queen Mother said that she would inquire about the Jintu Flower Book in detail, and invited the Qin family to drink tea outside, but left Ye Xi alone.
"Tang Mu asked you to come?" The Queen Mother suddenly asked.
Ye Xi was a little surprised, it seemed that the token did not let the emperor see her, but let the queen mother pay attention.
But also, the emperor's side is only afraid that he will always be guarded by the people of the Wei family, and on the queen mother's side, maybe the people of the Wei family are not so closely watched.
After all, no matter how noble the queen mother is, she has no real power.
"Yes."
The Queen Mother looked a little excited, "That's ...... That kid ......"
"Xiao Rui, he is very good, now that he is handed over to General Du for protection, the Queen Mother does not have to worry."
"That's good, that's good." The Queen Mother wiped her tears with a handkerchief as she spoke, "The emperor finally still has this bloodline, otherwise under Jiuquan, what kind of face will the mourning family have to meet the ancestors of the Chen family." ”
"Xiao Rui is very good, but the most important thing now is to restore Xiao Rui's identity. As long as Xiao Rui's identity is in doubt, naturally few people in the Manchu Dynasty will be on his side, and they will not be able to compete with the Wei family. Ye Xi said busily.
"This mourning family and the emperor also thought of it, but the emperor's bedroom was surrounded by people arranged by the Wei family, and the emperor couldn't do anything. Fortunately, you entered the palace today. The Queen Mother handed over a box to Ye Xi.
Ye Xi opened it and looked at it, but was taken aback.
Inside are the Three Divine Decrees and the Great Seal of the Prince. The first holy decree is to say that the prince was sent out of the palace back then, and now Tang Mu, the prince of Chengguo, is asked to send the prince back to the palace and officially recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.
The second holy decree is to canonize the prince Chen Rui as the crown prince, and once the emperor dies, the prince will be ordered to ascend the throne on a certain day.
The third holy decree was given to Tang Mu, canonizing Tang Mu as an auxiliary general, assisting Chen Rui to ascend the throne, as an auxiliary minister, he could remain in power until Chen Rui and Guan were in power.
Ye Xi gritted his teeth, the emperor trusted Tang Mu so much.
It's just that the emperor's arrangement is appropriate, but if she wants to take the holy decree out, I'm afraid it will be a difficult thing.
Such a large box is not something that can be hidden casually. Even if it is said to be the queen mother's reward, the people of the Wei family may not let her out of the palace without checking.
Tang Mu has returned to Beijing, and naturally the people of the Wei family will also take a lot of precautions.
Everything that comes and goes to the palace will be carefully checked.
When I entered the palace before, the box where the brocade was placed was carefully checked, and I even carefully checked whether there was a mezzanine in the box.
"The arrangement of the emperor and the queen mother is excellent, but how to bring this thing out is a problem." Ye Xi frowned.
If the Holy Decree is found by the people of the Wei family, not to mention that she and the Qin family will not survive, there will be many people who will not survive.
And with such a time, it is natural that the Wei family will keep an eye on the emperor and the queen mother more closely.
In other words, if the Wei family had already been rebellious, they would have taken action against the emperor in advance.
"It's the mourning family's negligence, and now it's not what it used to be." The Queen Mother smiled bitterly.
When it turned out that even the things she rewarded people, the Wei family had to check them.
In and outside the palace, there has long been no place for her, the queen mother. On the surface, Wei Guifei is not embarrassed by her, and she has all the respect she should have, but behind the scenes, it has long been the world of the Wei family.
After all, the emperor was confused, and raising tigers was a problem, and he ended up today.
Step by step, the Wei family has become bigger, and it has threatened the imperial power to this day. Even her only imperial grandson had to carefully avoid the Wei family, lest she be killed.
"These wills are all archived in the palace, right?" Ye Xi suddenly asked.
The holy decrees issued in the palace are actually in duplicate, one is to be sent out, and the other is to stay in the palace.
Once someone doubts the authenticity of the will, you can look for the pair in the palace, and it will naturally be clear whether someone is falsely preaching the holy will.
"This is natural, if there is no one in the palace, this one will be useless." The Queen Mother sighed.
Even if this is the emperor's own handwriting, it is stamped with a jade seal. But as long as there is a problem with the part in the palace, the Wei family will be able to make a big fuss.
"Since there is one in the palace, can we forge one outside the palace?" Ye Xi said.
The Queen Mother's eyes widened and she looked at Ye Xi in disbelief. This is the first time that someone has said that she has forged a holy decree in front of her.
"You are really bold, forging a holy decree, and conspiring against him, which is a great crime for the Nine Clans." It took a while for the Queen Mother to regain her voice.
"I can't bring out this written decree, so naturally I can only think of other ways. Since there is a real one in the palace, even if we forge one, no one dares to say that it is fake. As long as you compare them, they will all be clear. Ye Xi said busily.
She really couldn't think of any other way, and let her leave the palace with the holy decree so clearly, wasn't it self-defeating.
As long as he is stopped by the people of the Wei family, the fate will be clear.
"This is indeed a method, but the jade seal ......"
"Although the jade seal is made of special material, the appearance is not special. After all, isn't it just a seal? ”
In Ye Xi's opinion, it is very easy to forge the mark of a jade seal.
In fact, the reason why it is not easy to succeed in false decrees is because the real decrees have backups, not because they are difficult to forge.
As long as the emperor is sure that the holy decree is true at that time, what else can the Wei family do?
