"Oh, what the hell is a heart disease, let's hear it," Jian Huaizhen said.

"The so-called heart disease still needs heart medicine, I implore the eldest princess to release my mother from the cold palace, so that I can see my grandson every day, and the disease in my grandson's heart will definitely be cured from this," Zhu Jianshen knelt down and pleaded with Jian Huaizhen.

Jian Huaizhen is so smart, when he heard Zhu Jianshen say this, he immediately understood what was going on.

She thought about it carefully, it is true that Zhou Guiren made a big mistake, but she has always been the biological mother of the crown prince Zhu Jianshen, and now Zhu Jianshen is the crown prince, and Zhou Guiren is suffering in the cold palace, Zhu Jianshen's heart is not at peace no matter what, but the sin committed by Zhou Guiren is really a great crime, so let her go, wouldn't it attract people's handle?

Thinking of this, Jian Huaizhen glanced at Zhu Jianshen and said to her in a serious tone: "Shen'er, it's not that this palace won't let your mother out. It's just that she murdered the emperor and framed Queen Qian before, and the sins she committed were really sinful, if she was released, not to mention that the people of the Six Palaces were not convinced, even the people of the world might not be convinced. ”

Zhu Jianshen's face suddenly showed a look of disappointment, and he said to Jian Huaizhen very sincerely: "Today I once went to visit my mother in the cold palace, I saw where she lived, and saw that her diet was very rough, and the neighbors around her were actually the crazy concubines of the previous dynasty, but I was in the palace with fine clothes and jade food, enjoying all the glory and wealth, when I thought of these, my heart could not be at peace, and I asked the eldest princess to be foolish and sincere, and let my mother out." ”

Jian Huaizhen saw that Zhu Jianshen seemed to have made up his mind, and saw that he was very filial.

"Alas!" She sighed and said, "That's it, since that's the case, this palace will be the master and let Zhou Guiren out." It's just that although Zhou Guiren can be exempted from the death penalty, she can't escape the living crime, and after she comes out of the cold palace, she will be grounded for half a year. Except for her own dormitory, she couldn't go anywhere. ”

"Yes, the grandson respectfully obeys the will of the emperor, thank you to the princess for her success," Zhu Jianshen saw that Jian Huaizhen finally opened his face, and he was moved to tears, so he happily found someone to let Zhou Guiren out of the cold palace.

Jian Huaizhen looked at Zhu Jianshen's back, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Zhu Jianshen is just a seventeen-year-old boy, but he has to endure so many things.

Jian Huaizhen couldn't help but think of when she was young, she knew that her life experience was different from others since she was a child, and she knew that she had a mission of revenge since she was a child.

Therefore, from childhood to adulthood, she has lived in a heavy sense of responsibility and burden, but she did not expect that her grandchildren are now living a life full of pressure.

After Zhou Guiren was released from the cold palace, he really stopped a lot, stayed in his dormitory safely, and didn't dare to go anywhere, let alone provoke Queen Qian. Jian Huaizhen saw that she was indeed settled, and he did not blame the past.

Before I knew it, half a year had passed. Zhu Qizhen's health is getting worse and worse.

One night in February, Jian Huaizhen was about to rest, when suddenly a little eunuch from Zhu Qizhen's dormitory hurried over, and when he saw Jian Huaizhen bowing his head, his face was very flustered.

Seeing this, Jian Huaizhen secretly screamed in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The little eunuch ran in a hurry and stammered: "The eldest princess, the big thing is ...... If something is wrong, go and see the emperor, the emperor ...... The emperor ...... "When the little eunuch said this, he didn't dare to continue,

His words were heard in Jian Huaizhen's ears, and Jian Huaizhen immediately understood what was happening.

At first, she used a winding gold needle for the emperor to extend her life, but she could only continue her life for half a year, but now that the half year has arrived, I am afraid that the emperor's life will be difficult to preserve.

Jian Huaizhen sighed and said, "Okay, you hurry up and report to Queen Qian and the crown prince, come to the emperor's palace quickly, and say that there is an urgent matter in the palace." ”

"Yes", the little eunuch saluted Jian Huaizhen and hurriedly ran in again.

Under the scattered service, Jian Huaizhen put on his clothes again, walked out of the dormitory, and went straight to the emperor's dormitory. When the two of them walked to the emperor's bedroom, they saw the little eunuchs and palace maids outside the palace kneeling in a whole room, and they didn't dare to make a sound, which showed that the situation was very serious.

Jian Huaizhen stopped, trying to calm down her heart, and then walked into the dormitory, she saw Zhu Qizhen lying on the dragon bed, his face was sallow, and his whole person was already thin and inhuman.

Seeing Jian Huaizhen come in, Zhu Qizhen said with difficulty: "You are the eldest princess...... You're finally here? ”

Jian Huaizhen nodded and said, "I'm here, are you okay, emperor?" ”

Zhu Qizhen smiled back and shook his head, "Eldest Princess, I ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to,"

Jian Huaizhen looked at the emperor on the dragon bed, he was only in his thirties, from the restoration to the present, he had only been the emperor for eight years, why did everything become like this.

"Alas!" Jian Huaizhen sighed and said: "Your Majesty, if you have anything you need to order, just tell this palace, as long as this palace can do it, I will definitely help you do it." Jian Huaizhen's voice was already choked up as he spoke.

The so-called white-haired person sending black-haired people is exactly her mood at this moment, from Ming Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji to Jingdi Zhu Qiyu, and to Yingzong Zhu Qizhen, unconsciously, Jian Huaizhen has sent away three emperors, and every time her mood is very heavy.

"Wait...... I'll talk about it when the queen comes", Zhu Qizhen held back the sadness in his heart and said to Jian Huaizhen.

He probably knew that his end was approaching, which is why he was so lonely and sad.

Jian Huaizhen nodded and said, "Okay, don't talk for the time being, rest first." ”

Jian Huaizhen took out the winding gold needle as she spoke, and acupuncture for Zhu Qizhen, this time she found that Zhu Qizhen's body was not as good as before, and she used all her strength, but it was just to make Zhu Qizhen be able to be more mental and reduce some pain during the period of returning to the light.

"Thank you, Grandma Huang." Zhu Qizhen's tears couldn't help but flow out, and he said to Jian Huaizhen that after Jian Huaizhen's injection, his mental state was really much better.

Jian Huaizhen smiled slightly and said: "Emperor, don't worry, if it's peaceful today, the prince is smart and capable, and the world is safe, just rest assured." ”

Zhu Qizhen nodded forcefully and said, "I am completely relieved that the state affairs are handed over to the prince, it's just a family matter-"

Speaking of this, he stopped talking and stopped, as if waiting for Queen Qian to arrive.

Jian Huaizhen looked at Zhu Qizhen's sallow face, and suddenly thought of something in his heart, so he opened his mouth and said to Zhu Qizhen: "There is one thing in the emperor's palace, I don't know whether to talk about it or not. ”

Zhu Qizhen nodded and said, "The eldest princess, please speak."

Jian Huaizhen said "um" and said: "In the past, whenever the emperor died, there would be countless people who were martyred for the emperor, including not only palace maids, eunuchs, but also countless concubines, the rules of martyrdom are very inhumane, many innocent people just gave their lives like this, the emperor doesn't know if you can abolish this rule?" People are doing it, the sky is watching, what you do, the emperor, the heavens must see it clearly and clearly. ”

Although Zhu Qizhen's spirit is not very good, he still understands it very well in his heart, he listened to Jian Huaizhen's words, nodded and said: "Everything will be done according to the will of the eldest princess, I don't want to drag innocent people after death." ”

Jian Huaizhen saw that Zhu Qizhen's mind was clear, and said in a loud voice: "The emperor's order has been issued, and the people of the world have abolished the funeral, this stereotype and bad custom, the people in the palace will definitely be grateful to the emperor." ”

Zhu Qizhen felt a little comforted when he heard Jian Huaizhen say this, and while the two of them were talking, Queen Qian and Zhu Jianshen had already arrived one after the other.

Seeing Zhu Qizhen and Jian Huaizhen, Zhu Jianshen knelt down and saluted, Queen Qian's eyes were full of tears, and she called the emperor, and tears rolled down her cheeks.

Zhu Qizhen looked at his queen with great pity, endured the pain in his body and said: "Queen, don't cry, there is still a long way to go, I have gone a lot of things, so I will let you face it alone, you must live well and take good care of yourself." ”

"Your Majesty, what if...... If the emperor is not in this world, what is the point of the concubine living alone, the concubine would rather be with the emperor in heaven and on earth and never separate. ”

Zhu Qizhen shook his head, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, it can be seen that he is trying his best, he said slowly: "Queen, no matter what, you must live well, I will never allow you to die for me, and your life is the greatest comfort to me." ”

After listening to Zhu Qizhen's words, Queen Qian burst into tears and couldn't say a word.

Zhu Qizhen gasped for a while before he regained his breath and said slowly: "The eldest princess said that I have something to entrust each other, and now that the queen and the crown prince have arrived, I can say what I said." ”

Jian Huaizhen held Zhu Qizhen's thin hand, endured the grief in his heart, and said, "You say, what do you need to do in this palace, just say it." ”

"I beg the eldest princess to help me take care of the queen, and after I die, ...... I believe ------"

When Zhu Qizhen said this, he glanced at Zhu Jianshen from the corner of his eye, and continued, "I believe that after my death, Zhou Guiren will definitely not stop there, and she will definitely find a way to deal with my queen, the imperial aunt and grandmother, please help me take care of the queen no matter what." ”

Seeing that Zhu Qizhen was so affectionate, Jian Huaizhen felt very moved in his heart, and said repeatedly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, even if the emperor doesn't say it, the palace will definitely appease the queen and not let anyone bully the queen." ”

When Zhu Qizhen heard Jian Huaizhen say this, his heart suddenly let go, and he turned to Zhu Jianshen and said: "Prince, I know that Zhou Guiren is your biological mother, but the queen is also your mother-in-law, after I die, you must not only respect your biological mother, but also respect the queen and your mother-in-law, do you know?" ”

"Erchen respectfully obeys his father's holy decree," Zhu Jianshen said, and knelt down and kowtowed respectfully to Zhu Qizhen.

Zhu Qizhen saw that Zhu Jianshen was very sensible, and he suddenly felt a lot of comfort in his heart, he took the hand of the former queen and said: "Queen, you have been married to me for so many years, and there are ten years in between, and I have been separated from you. In the past eight years, I have not taken good care of you in the eight years since I came back from Warat, I am really ashamed, please live well and take good care of yourself no matter what, not only for yourself, but also for me. ”

Seeing that Zhu Qizhen's words were very moving, Queen Qian saw that she was panting for breath, and Queen Qian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, your orders and concubines have been recorded." ”

Zhu Qizhen was relieved when he heard Queen Qian say this. There is another thing that I want to entrust to the eldest princess, Zhu Qizhen looked at Jian Huaizhen and said.

"If the emperor has anything, just say it." Jian Huaizhen sighed, looked at Zhu Qizhen's tired and weak sick body, and felt very sorry in his heart,

"I hope to be buried with the queen in a hundred years." Zhu Qizhen said with emotion.

Jian Huaizhen was moved to see the deep love between the emperor and the queen. She said firmly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, as long as this palace is still alive at that time, this palace will definitely remember what you said today." ”

Zhu Qizhen glanced at Zhu Jianshen again, and said to Zhu Jianshen: "Shen'er, you must remember this sentence, I want to be buried with Queen Qian." ”

Zhu Jianshen choked with tears in his eyes and said: "Father, don't worry, every word you said today, Erchen has already remembered it in his heart, and Erchen will definitely do what you instruct." ”

After Zhu Qizhen listened to Zhu Jianshen's promise, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, he glanced at Queen Qian again, and said with infinite affection: "Queen, queen-" Before the words fell, Zhu Qizhen's head had already turned sideways, his hand had fallen on the bed, Jian Huaizhen went to shake Zhu Qizhen's hand, and found that his hand was cold, and Zhu Qizhen was dead.

The news of the emperor's death soon spread to every corner of the deep palace, the emperor's funeral was held ceremoniously, and after the funeral was held, it was the crown prince Zhu Jianshen who ascended the throne, and Zhu Jianshen succeeded to the throne as the emperor and was regarded as Ming Xianzong.

According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, the respected queen mother should first be the mother of the crown prince Zhu Jianshen, and then his biological mother, which also coincides with Zhu Jianshen's instructions, the first thing that should be respected is Queen Qian, followed by Zhou nobles, and the courtiers are also talking about this matter, when they are discussing how to get a name, there is a debate in the harem.

After Zhou Guiren was released from the cold palace, he has been grounded for half a year, all because murdering the emperor is a big crime. She was scared in her heart, afraid of being locked up in the cold palace, but now that the crown prince Zhu Jianshen has ascended the throne and become the emperor, and she is the emperor's biological mother, of course, there is nothing terrible.

On this morning, the courtiers were discussing how to set up the queen mother of the two dynasties.

Li Xian, the minister of Gu Ming, has always been good friends with Jian Huaizhen, and he got it from Jian Huaizhen's mouth, and Yingzong personally entrusted him on his deathbed to be the queen mother. He also knew the virtue of Empress Qian, so he first proposed that according to the rules of our dynasty, the queen mother should of course respect the emperor's mother-in-law, Empress Qian, as the queen mother, and then the emperor's biological mother, Zhou Guiren.

When he was a scholar of the university, he also immediately expressed his attitude, he also supported Li Xian, the ancestors and the gods of heaven and earth are on top, and the emperor must govern the country with filial piety and govern people with filial piety, of course, he must obey his biological mother and not his grandmother.

Li Xian and Peng Shi, the two ministers who took care of their lives, started their careers, and the ministers also echoed it, after all, this matter is very important, involving not only the ethics of the Steel Dynasty, but also the rules of the ancestors, as well as the emperor's dying will, of course, we must do things according to the rules.

Zhou Guiren sent people to Chaotang to inquire, and after hearing these news, she was so angry that she couldn't speak, and she immediately sent her cronies and eunuchs to Chaotang to announce her decree.

The eunuch Xia Shi was very arrogant, entered the Tang Dynasty, and saw the emperor first, "Our family came this time to read out her decree for Empress Zhou, Queen Qian is sick, blind and lame, how can she be called the queen mother?" Wouldn't such a queen mother be ridiculed by the world when she said it, she should respect Zhou nobles as the queen mother, and Queen Qian has no son, where is she qualified to be the queen mother? It should have been abolished long ago by following the precedent of Empress Hu of the Xuanzong Dynasty, otherwise it would have been abolished according to the rules of martyrdom in the past, and Empress Qian would be buried for the emperor.

When Li Xian heard this, he was angry. He stepped forward and said to Zhu Jianshen: "The edict of the first emperor has been decided, how can it be changed casually? ”

Zhu Jianshen didn't expect that Zhou Guiren would suddenly send his eunuch to Chaotang to read the edict, and he felt that he couldn't get over his face.

But Zhou Guiren is always his biological mother, and he has no way not to blame deeply, Zhu Qizhen's instructions before his death, he remembers it clearly, if Zhou Guiren is appointed as the queen mother and does not respect the former queen, I am afraid that it will not only cause a rebellion among the courtiers, but even Jian Huaizhen can't pass the pass, Zhou Guiren thinks things are too simple.

"Alas" Zhu Jianshen sighed, and said to the courtiers who had already been in a mess: "Ministers, don't discuss it first, wait until I go back to discuss this matter with Zhou Guiren and Queen Qian, and then give an explanation to the adults."

When the ministers saw that the emperor had already opened his mouth, how could they say no, but despite this, they all said: "The emperor should discuss with the nobles, and the matter of establishing the queen mother involves the state system, and it should not be done rashly. ”

After going down to court, Zhu Jianshen immediately went to see Zhou Guiren.

Zhou Guiren was unhappy when he heard the reaction of Xia Shi coming back to tell the courtiers. Seeing Zhu Jianshen coming to ask for a meeting, he pretended to be sick and didn't see him.

Zhu Jianshen saw that Zhou Guiren was still losing his temper, and after thinking about it, he felt that she was always his biological mother, so he said to the eunuch Xia Shi: "Since my mother is sick, then I won't go in first, and when my mother is sick, I will come to discuss with her again," After speaking, he broke his sleeves and left.

On the contrary, when Zhou Guiren saw that Zhu Jianshen heard that she was sick, not only did he ignore it, but he brushed his sleeves away, knowing that Zhu Jianshen was very dissatisfied with the fact that he sent Xia Shi to the Tang Dynasty to upload the edict. Therefore, he personally walked out and glared at Xia Shi and said: "Who said that the palace is unwell, the palace is unwell, the emperor of the palace is here, how can the palace not be seen," After speaking, he welcomed Zhu Jianshen in.

After Zhu Jianshen entered the main hall, he sat down and said to Zhou Guiren: "Mother, why did you send Xia Shi to the Tang Dynasty today to read the decree, saying that you want to abolish Queen Qian, and why did you let Xia Shi say that Queen Qian should be martyred for her father, and the old and bad habits of martyrdom have been abolished before his father's death, so why do you say that you will be martyred." ”
