182 Reduced to fish
"I don't want to say that to you either." Min'er said helplessly, "She should be the queen of the world, but she asked the emperor to control herself and stop leaving romantic debts." I will go down in history and be laughed at for generations. ”
Xiang Ye shook his head: "They won't laugh at you, they will only respect you, if it weren't for you, there would be no me now, Min'er, you did a good job." ”
Now is not the time to praise each other and say love words, but also to tell the queen mother, to explain clearly to the old lady, and to give an explanation to the harem and the ministers to the world.
Zhao's death, Min'er and Xiang Ye have already decided, they will believe that Zhao wanted to collude with the old palace people to murder the queen, but was killed by mistake because of a dispute with the palace people, such a story only needs to fabricate a murderer, and it can also embarrass Qiu Zhenyu.
As for Wang Jieyu, she originally only planned to let her "die of illness", but now that the mother and son left together, they simply pushed it on the Zhao family, saying that the mother and son ate the snacks sent by the Zhao family before, and even the queen almost died.
Such a statement is too far-fetched, but as long as the emperor decides it, no one dares to shake it. On the contrary, the more explanations they make, the more questions they will attract, this is Min'er's consistent attitude, those who are in a high position must have a high posture, your humility and kindness, in the eyes of others, are just good bullies and loopholes to exploit.
The Wang family and son are helpless in the court, and the position of the Zhao family is even more embarrassing, as the county lord of the previous dynasty, it was a burden for Qiu Zhenyu, and now even if he dies, he will cause trouble for him. Even if someone is not convinced, he will not be easy to take the lead, and he will not dare to boldly investigate the emperor's rights and wrongs. It's just that it will inevitably set off a storm, and Min'er and Xiang Ye have made plans for this.
Soon after, Xiang Ye left, going to the Longevity Palace to explain the situation to the Queen Mother, for the old lady, Wang's death may be nothing, but an eldest grandson is gone, if you don't make it clear that the child is not the emperor's, it will be a big trouble.
After the emperor left, Min'er changed her clothes, Qingya took hands on the side, whispered some things that Xiangwei told her, and then told the queen in detail that the white clothes mixed in the dress when she first entered the palace, and the hundreds of palace maids and eunuchs ate bad stomachs, all of which were the handiwork of the Wang family, and it was after the queen suddenly sent away the old people in the Kishu Palace, the Wang family suddenly lost all their connections, and could only be in the Begonia Palace in peace. Unexpectedly, two lives in succession were solved by her own hands.
"The matter of Baiyi, I initially thought that it was not that someone wanted to harm me, but wanted to remind me that there are bad things and bad people in this palace, and I hope that I can come forward to rectify it, and even take that person to live a stable life, now it sounds like this is really the reason, but I think that Wang She has actually struggled, she originally had a strong desire to survive, but ......" Min'er couldn't shake off the scene of the mother and son dying together, and said to Qingya sadly, "I'm ready, waiting for the eldest prince to hate me in more than ten years, and now I don't even have a chance to hate me." ”
"Thinking about the good news, Wang Jieyu is afraid that the eldest prince will bear too many of her sins in the future, be bullied and despised by others, and live better than death." Qingya persuaded her, "But thinking about her extreme personality, it may not be her last malice, even if she kills her son with her own hands, it will not be cheap to you." ”
Min'er sighed: "I'd rather believe that it's the former, and I can get by in my heart, but now that there are no more people, it's no longer interesting to say anything." The harem court will definitely cause a storm because of this, and the emperor and I still have a lot to deal with. ”
Qingya said: "Niangniang, Xiangwei looks like a loyal and smart maid, although the emperor said that he would execute the palace people involved in this matter, but the slave maid wanted to keep Xiangwei." ”
Min'er asked, "Do you want to bring it to the Shangyang Palace?" ”
Qingya asked: "Stay in the Begonia Palace in case of emergency, and she herself said that if she can work in the palace to support herself, she doesn't want to leave the palace." ”
Min'er responded, she believed that Qingya would arrange it, and how the emperor would execute the relevant people in the Begonia Palace, Min'er could guess a few points, but she would never ask or say, the emperor must have the ruthlessness of the emperor, and Xiang Ye, who came with white bones, did not lack this bearing.
In the Longevity Palace, the Queen Mother turned pale with surprise when she heard this, but when she heard that the eldest prince was someone else's child, she was extremely disgusted with the Wang family, thinking that the eldest grandson he had loved for many years was a bad seed, and the Queen Mother regretted that she had sent the Wang family to take care of the emperor with the army in the first place than the feelings she cultivated.
"Queen Mother, the matter is over, there is something else to say to the outside world, you just know it in your own heart, if the concubines come to ask, just drink them back." Xiang Ye said gently, "But Hong'er is innocent, he didn't have to choose his background, for the sake of the filial piety of the children over the years, don't hate the Wang family too much, not to mention that the people are gone." For the sake of my dignity, I will give the mother and son a grand funeral, please don't mind. ”
The Queen Mother sighed: "It should be fake to say that it is not diaphragm, but the child is really pitiful, and in the end he was killed by his own mother." Amitabha Buddha ......" The Queen Mother muttered to Mama Lin, "From today onwards, I want to retreat and worship the Buddha without anyone disturbing me, it must be that I am not sincere enough, and God has only given the emperor a tribulation." ”
Xiang Ye listened silently, without hindrance, it is also a good thing to let the Queen Mother calm down for a while and avoid the gossip of the concubines.
At this moment, the violent death of Wang Jieyu and the eldest prince, with the acquiescence of the emperor, began to circulate in the palace, and the cause of death was the accidental ingestion of poisonous dim sum, which came from the hands of the prime minister's wife, and the prime minister's wife was killed just a few days ago.
People who have not been able to see what happened in the Begonia Palace can only listen to this far-fetched statement to imagine the situation at that time, naturally no one is willing to believe it, they prefer to believe that the queen has always been ruthless, as Xiang Ye and Min'er expected, the wind direction quickly turned around, and some people began to say that it was the queen who forced the Wang family to death.
Because the Zhao family died by self-inflicted sin, the royal family did not have a pension, and the prime minister's mansion was not allowed to be buried in a grand manner, and even the mourning hall in the mansion was demolished, and the person who wore the guilty body could only be hastily buried.
Wang Jieyu got the posthumous mourning, was posthumously named a concubine, and the eldest prince was also buried as a prince, and the royal family presided over the funeral of the mother and son.
On the day of the funeral, the emperor and queen came to see her off in person, and the concubines had to follow, everyone peeked at the queen, she was still graceful and couldn't see anything unusual.
After the funeral of Wang's mother and son, everything in the palace was restored as before, Lin Zhaoyi took off her plain clothes and immediately came to Anle Palace, and saw Concubine Shu sitting on the bed with the little prince in her arms, and the second prince lying on the side of Zhengxiang, a pair of sons were by her side.
"Sit down and go, I don't have time to gossip with you these days, I'll talk about it in a few months." Concubine Shu's expression was indifferent, the imperial doctor only returned the little prince to him today, before because of premature birth, the imperial doctors needed to observe day and night, she couldn't see each other all the time, and now she sent it back, and even breastfeeding had to be nursed in front of her to be at ease.
Lin Zhaoyi and Sun Xiurong glanced at each other, and said timidly: "Wang's matter, do you know about it?" ”
Concubine Shu bowed: "Of course you know, the palace held such a heavy funeral for her, can you not know?" ”
Lin Zhaoyi said nervously: "Aren't you afraid, Niangniang?" The eldest prince is dead, and the next ......"
Concubine Shu glared at the Lin family viciously, and said hatefully: "What nonsense, are you going to curse my emperors?" ”
Lin Zhaoyi hurriedly knelt down and blamed herself again and again: "Niangniang forgives the sin, the concubine doesn't mean that." ”
Sun Xiurong was playing a round on the side, she was also frightened by the sudden death of Wang's mother and son and couldn't sleep well for several nights, and said fearfully: "Concubine Niangniang, the concubines have heard that it is the queen who wants to clear the harem, so she will take the most useless Wang mother and son, and then, the concubines and concubines will be reduced to fish and meat." How ruthless the queen is, you know, lady concubine, are we sitting still? How can the prime minister's wife have any ability to collude with the palace people to murder the queen, she has such a deep enmity with the queen, saying that the queen wants to kill her, and the concubines are willing to believe it. ”
Lin Zhaoyi said with a sad face: "Niangniang, will it be a concubine next, do you know...... The concubines are so flamboyant on weekdays, and they always bully people. ”
Concubine Shu glanced at her: "Now you know that you are flamboyant and love to bully people?" The queen has let you see herself clearly, don't you ...... It has nothing to do with the queen, what the emperor says, is what it is. ”
Obviously, Concubine Shu said that she leaked her mouth, she learned that the night of the violent death of Wang's mother and son, because the imperial doctor refused to let her take care of the little prince personally, Concubine Shu did not sleep all night, and the person who sat in confinement had to dry her tears.
How could she not be afraid, although the more children they had, the more secure their future would be, but correspondingly, in the years when they were growing up, Concubine Shu had to do everything she could to protect them.
However, if the queen is really her enemy, it is difficult for her to have a chance of winning, the emperor listens to her everything, everything she says is right, and she can't even say half a sentence. The funny thing is that the emperor once dragged her to the Longevity Palace, deliberately disgusted the queen, and loved her in front of her. Now that I think about it, I can make Concubine Shu sad and can't eat.
Originally, she was the hero of Daqi, but now even the eldest prince is gone, and a pair of princes were born and raised by her in October, and she shouldered the incense of the Xiang Dynasty alone, but because Shangyang Hall has a master, even the children have to call her a queen mother. And in the days to come, is the queen really not born?
"Concubine Shuniang, didn't the Queen Mother say that she wanted to canonize you as a concubine?" Lin Zhaoyi reminded, "Now that the Queen Mother is in retreat to worship the Buddha, when you leave the customs, you should also be out of confinement, and when the time comes, a few concubines will go to beat the side drum for you, no matter what, you must promote this matter." You have a noble status, so you can compete with the queen. ”
Concubine Shu said coldly: "Don't talk nonsense, it seems that I instigated you, I respect the queen very much, and the queen treats me like a sister, there are not so many messy things." Stand down, don't argue with Feng'er and the little prince. ”
Lin Zhaoyi and Sun Xiurong glanced at each other, and when they got up to leave, they heard Concubine Shu say: "It's okay to do it yourself, otherwise what else can you do?" ”
