Chapter Sixty-Nine: The Vicious Mother
The next day, Jiuyu entered the palace to see the queen's mother.
"Jiuyu, you have been talking to this palace for a long time, and I miss you very much."
Jiuyu smiled slightly, looked out the window, and there were already snowflakes at this time, not only this time, when would Su Zisheng return. The queen shook her head with a light smile, and slowly pushed the teacup in front of Jiuyu.
Jiu Yu came back to her senses, "Niangniang, Jiu Yu is unwell today, which disturbs Niangniang's interest." ”
"It's okay, you and I don't have to say this, I understand that you are worried about King Changping."
"It's only been the first day he's gone, and I'm so worried, and I don't know what happened to him. Whether it's safe or not. ”
The queen let out a long sigh, "We women have devoted our lives to our husbands, I don't know if it's right or wrong." ”
Jiuyu raised her head: "Niangniang, where did you start with this?" ”
"The emperor has been very fond of Confucian concubines in recent days, and it has been two months since I came to the palace, and I am also indifferent to Yu'er, although Yu'er has grown up, I don't have to bother, but I am still worried, if ...... What's the change, how can I be worthy of the deceased Concubine De. ”
Looking at the haggard queen in front of her, Jiuyu realized that she didn't seem to have a good chat with the queen for a long time.
"Niangniang, I remember you once said that the higher you climb, the worse you fall."
"What? What's your idea? ”
"I can't say the ghost idea, but it's also an idea, the Confucian concubine is just a concubine now, no matter what convenience is still respectful to the mother, if we hold her high, isn't it ......"
"You, you're really the same Jiu Yu you used to be. There are more ghost ideas than anyone else. ”
On the same day, the queen came to the emperor's imperial study and sent white fungus soup, "The emperor hurts his eyes when he watches the music at night, so let's use some soup to see it again." ”
"Why is the queen free today?"
"The concubine also has something to discuss with the emperor recently."
"Oh? Something to say. ”
"Yes. The concubines see how many concubines in the harem are hanging, and there is only one Confucian concubine in the concubine, this harem is inevitably deserted, if the harem is like this, how can the emperor have the heart to deal with political affairs, according to the concubines, the triennial draft should also start to prepare, on the other hand, the Confucian concubine was born under the guise of the concubine, and the concubine was a little wronged by her. ”
The emperor smiled slightly and took the queen's hand, "I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful, then according to what you said, Jin Confucian concubines are concubines, and noble people and noble people are concubines." ”
"Your Majesty, the concubine has another request, I don't know if the emperor can grant it."
"But it doesn't hurt to say it."
The queen bent down slightly and knelt on the ground, "Please ask the emperor to make a Confucian concubine a concubine." ”
"Why?"
"The Confucian concubine has a prince, and has been in the palace for many years, accompanying the emperor, doing her best, and never abandoning the country's difficulties, the emperor only allowed a concubine, I am afraid it will hurt people's hearts."
The emperor shook his head, "You, when can you think about yourself?" ”
"The concubines have the emperor, the children, and the lord of the harem, who are in a high position and have nothing to ask for."
This night passed, and there was one more noble concubine in the palace - the Confucian concubine gave the name Duansu.
"The emperor actually overstepped the position of the concubine of the palace, and from now on, the palace and the queen can be regarded as equals." Concubine Ru sat in front of the bronze mirror, looked at her concubine's clothes, snorted coldly, and turned around, "Song'er, the mother concubine is now a concubine, are you happy?" ”
"The mother concubine is a concubine, what about Song'er?"
"Song'er will definitely be the Son of Heaven in the future."
"Is Song'er the Son of Heaven?"
The palace maid Ran'er immediately ran over, "Niangniang, don't do this, this is a big sin to lose your head." ”
Song'er snorted: "The mother concubine said that I am the Son of Heaven, and I am the Son of Heaven." Song'er only listens to the concubine. Concubine Ru got up slowly, touched Song'er's head gently, and smiled slightly, "Nurse, take Song'er down." ”
"Yes."
Watching the nurse take Song'er out, Concubine Ru walked to the little palace maid Ran'er step by step, "Why do you want to come to the palace to teach you a lesson?" ”
Ran Er knelt on the ground in fear and kowtowed vigorously.
The concubine slowly squatted down and held up her chin with her long armor, and Ran'er's chin oozed blood, "Yo, it's bleeding." It was me who was careless. ”
Ran Er didn't dare to speak, and her tears were kept vigorously.
"Don't be afraid, I haven't said anything yet, why don't you dare to speak?"
"Concubine Niangniang, the slave knows that she is wrong, and the slave knows that she is wrong."
Concubine Ru's eyes were bloodshot, and she pierced Ran'er's eyes with her long armor, and Ran'er's miserable screams were particularly painful in this quiet room, and the two palace maids standing on the side were frightened and didn't dare to move.
At this moment, Yin Thirteen clenched his hands tightly, and at this moment Song'er ran in excitedly, and the nurse shouted loudly, "Little prince!" Little Prince! Can't get in. ”
Song'er, who rushed in, just saw this scene, her eyes widened, her mouth trembled a little, and Concubine Ru immediately let go of her hand and put her blood-stained hand behind her back.
"The Mother ......"
Ben Tong's innocent smile slowly changed color, and Song'er was still holding the taro balls to give to her mother in her hand, which was her favorite food, and she wanted to bring it to her mother to taste, but she didn't want to come back and bumped into this scene.
Song'er walked step by step in front of the palace maid who had fainted, and Concubine Ru immediately squatted down in front of him, signaling Yin Shisan to take her out.
Yin 13 walked over, set Ran'er up, and pretended to unintentionally lift up his bloody face, just letting Song'er see it clearly, seeing this scene, Song'er was directly frightened and fainted.
"Song'er! Song'er! ”
When Song'er woke up, the world seemed to have changed, and the depressing Forbidden City was finally even more depressed. Concubine Ru looked at her son who slowly opened his eyes in front of her, "How is it?" Her mother's brilliance finally overwhelmed the desire in her heart.
"Mother."
Hearing Song'er call herself, Concubine Ru smiled from the bottom of her heart. It's just that the mother who was about to hug the child was frightened by the child's behavior.
"Where did the concubine go?"
Concubine Ru was stunned for a moment, "Song'er, what's wrong with you?" ”
"This lady is very good-looking, where is Song'er's mother?"
The incoming critical attack frightened Concubine Ru immediately stood up, "Imperial Doctor Zhang, what's going on?" ”
"Don't worry, the little prince is frightened and may be delirious."
"Maybe? He doesn't even recognize his mother, what's going on in a delirium, are you tired of being crooked? ”
"Old minister, I really don't know!"
Speaking of this, the emperor walked in, "Song'er, are you better?" ”
"Father, the son is fine, but this lady is very fierce. Imperial Doctor Zhang didn't do anything wrong, and this lady spoke out disrespectfully. ”
"This mother?" The emperor looked back at Concubine Ru, Concubine Ru had collapsed, seeing that her biological son didn't recognize herself, and actually called herself this mother, this mood can only be understood by being a mother.
The queen also walked in with Jiuyu, since the king of Changping left Beijing, Jiuyu often entered the palace to accompany the queen.
"Mother!"
Seeing the queen and Jiuyu, Song'er got out of bed and ran over before she even had time to put on her shoes.
"What's your name Hongu?"
"Mother!"
The queen looked up confused, "This...... What's going on? ”
Jiuyu also frowned, and Concubine Ru hurriedly ran over and grabbed Song'er's hand, "Song'er!" Look at me! Look at me! You really don't know! Don't know your mother anymore? This person is not your mother! I am! I am! ”
The frightened child looked at the crazy woman in front of her in confusion, and the queen slowly squatted down, "Concubine Ru, you scared him." ”
"Shut up! He is my child, and you are coming to take my child, Queen! What is the grudge between me and you, and you want to take my child? ”
"Concubine Ru is crazy, take her down first!" The emperor looked coldly at the Confucian concubine who was kneeling on the ground with her hair scattered. Concubine Ru broke free from the eunuch beside her, "Your Majesty!" Can't you see it yet? It's them! They forced my Song'er to do this. Do you understand! ”
"Song'er is sick, Doctor Zhang has superb medical skills, and sooner or later he will be cured, and you have lost your physique!"
"Your Majesty! You talk to the concubines about the system, the biological children of the concubines, call the mother concubine to others, the emperor thinks, what is the system? Queen Mother, you are also a mother, don't you really feel my feelings? ”
The queen pulled Song'er, who was a little scared beside her, "Your Majesty, the Confucian concubine is also worried about Song'er, so she lost the rules, and it is not a big crime, she will think about it behind closed doors for a few days, and let the concubine take care of Song'er in these days, and Mrs. Zhang has excellent medical skills, so let him diagnose and treat Song'er, and the concubine remembers that the red-sleeved girl next to Jiuyu is also a skilled doctor, and the concubine guarantees that Song'er will be cured." ”
"Come on, take Concubine Ru down, he needs to have a good rest."
"Your Majesty! Emperor! ”
Looking at Song'er, who was a little timid in front of her, the queen gently touched his head, this child, but only five years old, how can he ...... His eyes seemed to have experienced something, and his speech was so mature.
returned to the palace, leaving only the queen, Jiuyu and Song'er.
Jiuyu smiled slightly, "Song'er, do you remember me?" ”
"Princess."
"Then you also remember the queen mother?"
"Yes."
"Why do you want to call the queen mother?"
Song'er lowered her head and didn't speak, Jiu Yu looked at the queen sitting on the side, and the queen slowly lowered her head, "Song'er, there are only three of us left now, don't be afraid, just say whatever you know, the queen won't blame you." ”
"The Imperial Mother! It's not that Song'er has to offend, it's just that Song'er can't stay with her mother anymore. ”
"Why do you say that?"
"The mother concubine has done a lot of wrong things for Song'er, for Song'er, she has killed a lot of people, Song'er can't let the mother be wrong anymore, if Song'er is not there, the mother can stop, Song'er doesn't want the mother to do those meaningless things for me."
Jiuyu looked at Song'er, who was only five years old in front of him, in surprise, he was really smart, it had only been two hours since he fainted, he was able to do so much, and what he said was the truth, he was not only smart, he was also a kind person.
