Chapter 121: The Rise of the Queen Mother (3)
"Lord Zhang and my lord, why did you two come to the emperor's palace and make such a gesture, do you want to rebel?" Xue Lan walked into the dormitory with the support of the palace maid, folded her hands on her abdomen, and opened her mouth coldly.
"The queen's mother is serious, the ministers are all thinking about the country of the Great Shang Dynasty, and they dare not have the heart of rebellion." Although she looked down on Xue Lan, a low-born queen in her bones, she always had to do enough to save face, and the two ministers hurriedly put down the things in their hands and knelt down to salute.
"Are you saying that this palace is wrong?" Xue Lan moved the lotus step and approached and looked at the sick emperor condescendingly, his face was very pale, and there was blue and black under the corners of his eyes, he did look like he was terminally ill and about to die, and his originally young and handsome face was also dyed with frost.
"The ministers don't dare, it's just that all of this is a matter of the previous dynasty, and the queen mother is the master of the harem, so these things shouldn't be worried." Although he said politely, the look on the faces of these people was, you are a woman who is not qualified to take care of the affairs of the previous dynasty at all, so it is better to get out of here as soon as possible!
If Pan Xuelan was here, maybe she would have been really scared by this group of people, after all, she was not from a high background, she was just an ordinary woman, and she married the first emperor and became the queen by chance, and she really didn't have much foundation. Xue Lan is different, her confidence does not come from her identity or other things, but her own strength, no matter where she goes, this dignity and pride will never fade, so she is not scared in the slightest.
"The so-called special circumstances and special treatment, the three Aiqing were able to break into the palace without regard to the emperor's orders, and they did their best to die for the sake of the great Shang Dynasty. Although this palace is a deep palace woman, she is also the mother of the country of the dignified Shang Dynasty, and the emperor's wife, how can she ignore it? Xue Lan turned her back to the three ministers and said coldly, she was no less confident than others, not to mention that she was justified.
"The queen, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, this is an iron law since ancient times." The three ministers were obviously not convinced, and still wanted to use the reason that the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics to suppress Xue Lan.
"Now that the emperor is seriously ill, the palace, as the lord of the harem, naturally has the right to assist the emperor, didn't the two Aiqing break into the palace because of special circumstances? Or do you really have a disobedient heart? Xue Lan didn't have any dodge in this matter, but talked frankly, so that people couldn't catch the mistakes.
Seeing that the three big men present were speechless, Xue Lan smiled with satisfaction, and then sat down beside the emperor, looked at his pale face, picked up the fear on the side and wiped the sweat on his forehead for him, and then seemed to remember something.
"By the way, what about Heshun, who has been serving the emperor, why is he gone? The emperor was sick at this time, and it didn't take long for him to start disobeying the yang. Such a slave who violates the yang and the yin should be beaten and killed, the three Aiqing said yes? ”
The three people present were not stupid, so they could naturally hear Xue Lan's meaning of scolding Huai, but they could only swallow this breath, who made them courtiers and the other party the master? "That's exactly what Niang Niang said."
"If the three Aiqing don't have anything to do, let's retire first, the emperor's health is not good, and he needs to recuperate, and he will talk about it later." Xue Lan put down the handkerchief in her hand, looked at her slender hands, and spoke lightly.
How could it be possible to retreat again now, Li Xiexian stopped doing it, he raised his head and stared at Xue Lan directly, his tone was not very tough, "Niangniang, what about the emperor's body, I know very well that the country of the Great Shang Dynasty must be inherited, and there must be powerful courtiers to assist, we are also for the good of the Great Shang Dynasty, and please forgive the queen." The candidate for the auxiliary minister must be chosen today, and the emperor has no children, so the candidate for the new emperor should also be decided. ”
"General Li really deserves to be a descendant of the royal family, and he thinks so much about the royal family, which is admired by the palace." Xue Lan sneered and let out an unspeakable mockery, which was obviously saying the opposite, but it was impossible to refute.
"The Auxiliary Minister is a big deal, and it can't be solved in a few words. Besides, the emperor is alive, so it is too anxious to choose the auxiliary minister so easily, is this cursing the emperor? ”
"The ministers don't dare" said a bit heavy, no one dared to take such a responsibility, and the three of them immediately knelt on the ground and didn't dare to speak again.
"General Li is a member of the royal family, and the task of guarding the Golden Dragon Palace is too aggrieved to be a general, so it is better to leave this matter to General Zhang to do." Xue Lan struck while the iron was hot, and let these three people stay by the emperor's side sooner or later, it is better to change to a reliable person, at least to ensure peace for a while.
"Niangniang......" Of course Li Xie is unwilling, controlling the Son of Heaven is equivalent to controlling the imperial power, how could he give up so easily? However, Xue Lan didn't listen to him at all, and there was already the sound of hurried footsteps outside the room.
"Minister Zhang Fan sees the queen mother, the queen mother is a thousand years old." A burly man in armor and holding a sword stepped forward and knelt on one knee, his voice was loud and his steps were steady, and he looked like a practitioner.
"Aiqing, please get up, this palace is looking for you today to discuss something. The Golden Dragon Palace is the emperor's bedroom, and outsiders are not allowed to enter it easily, and I also ask General Zhang to guard the Golden Dragon Palace in the future, and don't let those people break into the palace at will to disturb the emperor's rest. After all, even if the emperor is seriously ill, he is still a true dragon and cannot be violated. ”
The latter words were said to the three people, this is a warning and an ultimatum, if it really touches her bottom line, Xue Lan doesn't mind doing it herself.
"Weichen obeys the order, he must protect the Golden Dragon Hall well, and never let anyone break in easily." Zhang Fan took over this task with a deep buckle, and it happened so quickly that it didn't give people a chance to react at all.
Zhang Fan was already in control of the power of guarding the palace, and it was justified to hand over the safety of the Golden Dragon Hall to him, but he couldn't do it if he wanted to find a reason to refute it. What's more, Zhang Fan is heroic and loyal, he is a close confidant of the emperor, and no one listens to anything except the emperor's words, and almost no one in the court dares to provoke him.
The reason why Xue Lan chose Zhang Fan was also because of him, so as not to find some people with active minds and have some crooked thoughts, so that she would have to spend time to stop or even change.
"Then hand it over to Zhang Aiqing, the palace is very relieved." Although he nodded with satisfaction, and then asked Zhang Fan to send the three of them out, then he turned his head to look at his nominal husband in this life.
I don't know when a silver needle as thin as a cow's hair has appeared on the fingertips, Xue Lan pricked a few stitches on the emperor's body with a turn of her wrist, and after a while, the emperor woke up and opened his eyes, and the two looked at each other.
