175 premature
The father and daughter looked at each other, the emperor had a full view, and Qiu Zhenyu must regret it now, why he gave birth to this daughter, and why he married her to himself. Originally, it was just a chess piece used by their monarchs and ministers, but it was destined that Qiu Min'er's life would never be at the mercy of others, and she didn't need to obey what she said when she first met, but fortunately, Xiang Ye kept it in mind and treated it more solemnly. But this father has never understood his daughter.
The guards quickly surrounded the Antai Palace, someone died, naturally there was a murderer, the cause of death of the son of the old princess has not been fruitful so far, and a tragedy occurred after a year, escorting is the top priority. Fortunately, the person who died this time had nothing to do with the queen mother, and he didn't see it with his own eyes, the old lady was not panicked, and was ordered by the emperor to send it back to the Longevity Palace first, and he himself took Min'er with him, with Qiu Zhenyu and several other ministers, to the apse to check.
"Your Majesty, Mrs. Qiu is covered in blood and is terrible, please think twice about the emperor and Niangniang." The guards stopped in front of the door and asked the emperor and empress not to enter the scene of the murder, which was covered in blood.
Xiang Ye smiled coldly, is there less blood in the bones and people he stepped on under his feet, but looked at Qiu Zhenyu: "Aiqing's wife died violently in the palace, I must give you an explanation, and I can't send people back to the Prime Minister's Mansion for a while, and I hope you understand my intentions." ”
Qiu Zhenyu didn't know how to express his emotions at this moment, he was not sad, he had no affection for his wife for a long time, and he was more annoyed that Zhao's inexplicable death would cause him trouble than being saddened by her violent death. And the emperor's attitude is obviously not allowed to interfere with himself, he can't do anything at the moment, he can only wait for the emperor to give him a result.
What worries him the most is that his wife is not an ordinary person, she is the county lord of the Zhao Dynasty in the past, this identity is enough for the emperor and those ministers who are opposed to him to make a fuss, maybe his wife's death is still due to her own guilt.
Qiu Zhenyu could only pretend to be sad: "Thank you for the emperor's compassion." ”
Xiang Ye saw him doing this, but his son and daughter-in-law were suppressing their excitement behind him, no matter how innocent the relationship between mother and son was, the emperor looked at Min'er and asked her if she wanted to go in and have a look, Min'er shook her head, and also turned her eyes to her half-brothers.
"You all go in and take a look, and you can send it to your mother, and when the case is clarified, you can take it back to handle the aftermath." Xiang Ye said lightly, ordered the guards not to let the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion move Zhao's body, and left with Min'er.
They had barely left the apse when they heard the crying, but it was almost instantaneous before the crying stopped. Xiang Ye and Min'er glanced at each other, and it was obvious that it was Qiu Zhenyu who made his sons and daughters-in-law not cry.
"You arranged this?" On the way to leave the Antai Palace and go to the Longevity Palace, the emperor finally asked.
"I didn't expect it to be so tragic, it wasn't originally planned that way." Min'er replied calmly, looking at her husband sincerely, "Do you think I'm too terrible, if the emperor is disgusted, he must tell me, and I will change it in the future." I'm afraid that if I don't say anything, it will become a mustard estrangement, and it will be boring. ”
Xiang Ye looked at her and smiled faintly: "You just did what I wanted to do but couldn't do, I originally wanted to kill all the people of the Zhao Dynasty, even if she didn't die, she would be imprisoned to death for the rest of her life, but she was Qiu Zhenyu's wife, I couldn't kill the prime minister's wife, and then let him mess with his own liver and brains." ”
"Yes." Min'er Ying.
In Xiang Ye's bones, there is also a natural emperor ruthlessness, and he seems to be destined to become an emperor, facing life and death, Yun Danfeng smiled lightly: "Good kill." ”
"But I didn't kill it, I didn't plan to kill the Zhao family." Min'er shook her head, "This matter is not over yet. ”
Xiang Ye sighed: "I know, you said that you would give me an explanation, and I will wait for you patiently." ”
The breeze blew, Min'er's heart softened, she was reluctant to let the man she loved get hurt, but the outcome of that incident was bound to not be good.
"Your Majesty, no matter what the result is, won't you blame me?"
"I don't blame you, I know better than anyone else."
Min'er understood that the emperor had long known what she was going to do, so there was no need to ask anything.
The emperor took Min'er's hand, and in the cool autumn breeze, they held hands with each other and went to the Longevity Palace. But originally planned to visit the Queen Mother, so I went back to Shangyang Hall to rest, and I didn't want to go to the gate of the Longevity Palace, and there were palace people who came in a hurry, saying that the concubine Niangniang was suddenly going to give birth on the way back to Anle Palace, and the imperial doctor said that the birth would be in less than a month, and the lives of adults and children would be in danger.
Xiang Ye frowned, but Min'er was very calm: "Your Majesty, let's go together." ”
In the Anle Palace, the palace maids and eunuchs went in and out, the imperial doctor and the midwife were arranged early, and the concubine was the second childbirth, and there was no chaos in the palace, but the little prince couldn't see such restlessness, and he didn't see his mother, so he was so anxious that he cried.
When Min'er came, she took Feng'er from the nurse's hand, and the little guy asked delicately: "What's wrong with the mother, the queen, I want to see my mother." ”
"Mother is going to give birth to a little brother for you, hasn't Feng'er waited for a long time?" Min'er gently comforted him, and when the emperor saw it, he walked up, picked up his son, and rudely wiped away his tears, "What are you crying about, the boy's family sheds tears at every turn, what does it look like?" ”
Feng'er pouted, didn't dare to cry or talk back, but twisted restlessly in her father's arms, and only waited for Min'er to carry him before she lay down on Min'er's shoulder with peace of mind.
"He's so big, you can't hold it, don't flash your waist." The emperor admonished, but his face was full of anxiety and impetuousness, no matter what, Concubine Shu was his woman and was about to give birth to their child.
At this time, the imperial doctor ran out sweating, saying that because of the lack of a month, Concubine Shu was born very difficult, if it was too long to give birth, the child might suffocate inside, Concubine Shu is now very flustered and emotionally unstable. As he spoke, Er Zhen also followed, knelt in front of the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Niangniang wants to see you." ”
Everything came too suddenly, and Concubine Shu was not frightened by Zhao's death, but on the way back, suddenly the amniotic water broke, and although it was the second childbirth, it still frightened her. The child is less than a month, and she is afraid that she will not live long after birth, she has worked hard in vain, and she may have to be laughed at, and people who are cranky and think can't concentrate on calming down, so they naturally can't use their strength.
The emperor did not refuse Er Zhen's request, and came in alone to visit Concubine Shu, as soon as she saw the emperor, Concubine Shu burst into tears, Xiang Ye did not show irritability, but was worried about her, and said angrily: "There is a doctor here, I am waiting for you outside the door, and I will give birth to the child well." ”
Concubine Shu grabbed Xiang Ye's hand and said: "Your Majesty, if the concubine has three long and two short, Feng'er will be handed over to you, and I ask the emperor to teach him well." ”
"Don't be cranky." Xiang Ye said patiently, "If you have anything to say, give birth to the child and then talk to me." ”
Concubine Shu cried: "The concubine is afraid that she will not live until tomorrow, Your Majesty, our children ......"
But the sharp pain of a contraction made Concubine Shu almost unable to catch it in one breath, she clenched her teeth in pain, and the midwife shouted: "Niangniang, you work harder, Your Majesty, please avoid it first." ”
Everyone asked the emperor to leave, he was just adding chaos here, when he walked out of the door, he heard Concubine Shu calling him, the sound of "emperor" made people's hearts tremble, Xiang Ye was stunned, raised his eyes and saw Min'er gently teasing his little son, he was a little in a trance.
Suddenly, he didn't want Min'er to suffer this crime, and he didn't want her to face life and death for a child, so naturally Concubine Shu was also working hard, and he was also worried about Concubine Shu.
"Father." When Feng'er saw her father come out, she hurriedly ran up and asked, "How is my mother, has my brother given birth?" ”
Min'er slowly followed, also waiting for the emperor's answer, but the emperor looked at her a little strangely, he told the nurse to take the little prince away, and then shook his hand, and took her to the side hall to wait.
This is Anle Palace, the palace maids and eunuchs of Anle Palace are all watching, Min'er once thought about pulling her hand away, but the emperor didn't plan to let her go at all.
I don't know how long it took, Min'er and Xiang Ye were also silent for so long, and finally heard the baby's cry, and there was a lot of excitement in the delivery room, and soon someone came to congratulate the emperor on adding another son, and the mother and son of the concubine were safe.
Min'er also congratulated the emperor, Xiang Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and took her to see the newborn baby.
In the delivery room, the groggy concubine was woken up by Er Zhen, and Er Zhen said to her in surprise: "Niangniang, it's a little prince, it's a little prince." ”
Concubine Shu opened her eyes in astonishment, and asked in disbelief: "Is it really the prince, isn't it a princess, the imperial doctor said it was a princess." ”
But at this moment, the emperor held the child and walked in with Min'er, and when he heard Concubine Shu say this, he remembered what Concubine Shu said behind the screen that day, and now she has got her wish and has two sons.
"Your Majesty." Min'er pushed the emperor who had stopped, and then stepped forward with a smile and said, "Congratulations, the imperial doctor said that although it is less than a month, it has grown completely, and the crying loudly will inevitably grow up healthily." But in the end, it is smaller, and it can't be kept by your side these days, and you don't feel comfortable in your heart. ”
Concubine Shu looked at the queen weakly, this woman who was not yet twenty years old, had never experienced childbirth at all, but because she was the queen, she put on a look of knowing everything. In any case, on top of the heir, Concubine Shu will never admit defeat, maybe the queen will not be born in her lifetime, who knows.
"Your Majesty, the concubine wants to see her son." Concubine Shu looked at the emperor with a longing face.
"It's too small." Xiang Ye walked up and sent the child into Concubine Shu's arms, watching her cry with excitement, but there was nothing moved in his heart, he always couldn't forget what Concubine Shu said, she was going to fight, even if it wasn't now, she would have to fight with Min'er in the future.
Min'er was standing calmly aside, but the emperor always looked at her strangely, making her feel uncomfortable. Concubine Shu gave birth, what does it have to do with her?
