The spoon in Yuan Xi's hand slipped into the bowl, and after a crisp sound, lightning crossed the sky, followed by a thunderstorm, but Yu'er didn't move, Yuan Xi didn't move, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law stared at each other and were silent for a long time. ￣︶︺sんцつ

The thunder and rain were endless, and the heavens seemed to hear the prayers of the emperor and the ministers, as if they had forgiven the emperor's "mistakes", and finally rained down.

The people's crops have been saved, but who will save Sister Jiayin, who will save the emperor, can God hear it?

Yuan Xi was full of fear, the Queen Mother once said that she wanted her to support the emperor through this hurdle together, but the Queen Mother now said that people are not in their position, how do she think that she is not just talking about Sister Jiayin?

"Rest early tonight and take care of yourself." Yu'er put down the things in her hand and touched Yuan Xi's long hair again, "What a good hair, black and shiny, reminds me of when I was young." In my life, I didn't do anything great, but I lived well, and when I lived, there was hope for everything. ”

Yuan Xi stood up, her hands were tightly folded together, but her fingers were interlocked, and she still couldn't help trembling slightly, Yu'er put her hand on Yuan Xi's hand and stabilized her trembling.

"Queen Mother." Yuan Xi finally spoke, "You, you will also forgive the emperor, won't you?" ”

Yu'er said: "Yes, definitely, he is my son." ”

Thunder rumbled outside the window, and I don't know if I was testifying to the Queen Mother's words or refuting it.

Yuan Xi's uneasiness overflowed from her eyes, and Yu'er patted the back of her hand and turned to leave.

It rained heavily for three days in a row, alleviating the disaster of the long-term drought, and three days later, the rain was clear, it was the day when Princess Heshun married Shang Zhilong, and the Queen Mother was engaged to Princess Roujia and Geng Jimao's son Geng Juzhong on this day.

In the three feudatories, two people brought their sons to Beijing, but Wu Sangui was unable to go to the capital due to physical discomfort, but fortunately, his son Wu Yingxiong was in the capital, so he could naturally replace his father to take care of these things.

Yu'er courtesy to the three feudatories, took their families to the palace for a small gathering, feasted and enjoyed, and was entertained once.

The empress dowager's earnest attitude naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of several Manchurian ministers, and the princes and Baylors even felt that the Han people had climbed on their heads.

They all made suggestions to the emperor, thinking that the queen mother should not be so elevated as a Han slave, but the current emperor wholeheartedly hopes that God can save his beloved woman, and in addition to this, he is in charge of national affairs as much as possible, and he can't bear it anymore.

He didn't even bother to raise his eyelids about this, but these words reached the ears of the Queen Mother.

The child who was raised by her side wanted to marry far away, and Yu'er was reluctant after all, and said goodbye with tears and two days after that, before she eased her spirits.

Fan Wencheng entered the palace to see the Queen Mother, although he sent some new books and poetry collections as usual, but every time they talked about the topic, they were extremely serious.

"Roujia, send these two books to the study, tell Taifu what I mean, and let them talk to Fuquan and Xuanye when they are free." Yu'er handed her little granddaughter two books and sent the girl away.

Only then was Fan Wencheng able to say something about the imperial court, mentioning that the Empress Dowager entertained the three feudatories in the palace, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the Manchurian ministers and went to Qionghua Island to complain.

"The emperor doesn't have time to pay attention to it." Yu'er said, "They found the wrong person." ”

"Yes." Fan Wencheng said, "The emperor may also understand the queen mother's hard work." ”

Yu'er said: "But on this matter, you can see what a little ghost is difficult." ”

It has been 16 years since entering the customs, and the previous generation of princes and Baylor have almost gone, and there are not many people in the current generation who have really been on the battlefield and received meritorious deeds, but they are all sitting on the shadow of their ancestors, and they are very self-righteous.

"In the past, although Dolgon was strong, I can control him, and if I control Dolgon, I will control everyone." Yu'er said, "But right now, none of these people who seek their own interests and have no real skills, but who are cunning, can't be trusted." On the contrary, they are all the grandsons of Nurhachi, and everyone feels that they are qualified to be emperors. ”

Fan Wencheng felt that the topic was very heavy, everything the Queen Mother mentioned at the moment had already skipped several things and was heading for the most unbearable future.

But he had to help the Queen Mother, after all, if he wanted to do it again when that incident happened, it would be too late for anything.

"If something happens, they will definitely join each other, first get rid of the biggest enemy together, and then chase each other's interests. At that time, the Qing royal family and the imperial court will become a plate of scattered sand, and enemies from all directions will take advantage of the situation. Yu'er looked out the window, as if she was also looking at the future, "Daqing, it's over." ”

"The Queen Mother's ......"

"Fu and I are dead, it doesn't matter, but nothing can happen to Daqing, never." Yu'er said categorically, "This time, I want to put the chips on the ministers, let them resist the mercenary nobles, the empire should have the dignity of the empire, and the monarch should have a brain and strategy, and can no longer be like a barbarian tribe, fighting fists and talking." ”

Fan Wencheng asked the Queen Mother: "What do you mean?" ”

Yu'er said: "You know my thoughts, I have asked you a long time ago, if everything is repeated, can we survive it." But the reality is that if there is a day, we can't do it all over again, we can't set up any more regents, and we have to let those royal families go farther away. ”

Fan Wencheng said cautiously: "But it is likely that because of this, they will be more hostile to you and the emperor." ”

Yu'er said: "As long as the ministers work together and support the king, will they still kill the king and usurp the throne, even if they have the heart, they can't stand." The current Eight Banners are no longer the Eight Banners of the past, and there are no people in the imperial family who can straighten their waists and speak hard in front of me and Fu Lin, but there are still ministers among them, and these ministers trained by the first emperor are still working for the Qing Dynasty. ”

Fan Wencheng asked: "In the heart of the Queen Mother, there are people who are chosen. ”

Yu'er bowed her head and said, "I've wronged you, Master Fan, you are Han after all, and you can't be among them." ”

Fan Wencheng hugged his fists and said: "The minister is very contemptuous of fame and fortune, the Queen Mother understands, but please also ask the Queen Mother to listen to the minister's words, if you really go to that point, it is important to choose anyone, talent is one of them, loyalty is more important." In addition, it is also extremely important for these people to unite as one, or to fight openly and secretly. Everything, please think twice. ”

Yu'er said: "Think about it with me, and you will enter the palace again in a few days and tell me your opinion." I have to make all the preparations now, to face the changes that may happen at any time, the imperial concubine, she is about to die, she has survived the summer, and she can't survive the autumn. ”

Fan Wencheng was worried: "May God bless me and help my emperor get through this." ”

But he looked up to the Queen Mother, but he couldn't see the expectation in the Queen Mother's eyes, and she seemed to have completely given up on the emperor.

Dong Jiayin's illness is getting worse.

On the day Yuan Xi came, the sisters came and talked for most of the day, and in just a few days, Jia Yin had fallen into a high fever and coma, sometimes awake, she could still recognize the emperor, and she could still say a few words, but more often, she was in a coma.

When Fu Lin was not busy with state affairs, he guarded Jia Yin, but Jia Yin told him that he should not get close to himself or touch her body, so he moved a stool and sat on the side, and kept looking at her.

With the severity of her illness, Jia Yin's appearance had already changed, and Fu Lin could imagine that Jia Yin did not let herself touch her, it must be because something worse had happened to her.

Fu Lin finally figured it out, no longer obsessed with knowing her condition, he wanted to preserve Jiayin's last dignity and beauty.

Looking back on the four years together, he can hardly remember anything particularly happy, and the joy of the birth of the fourth elder brother has long been consumed by the pain of the child's premature death, and he can't even feel the slightest joy.

Even if Jia Yin said that she didn't regret it, and said that she was very happy to be with her, Fu Lin still fell into deep regret, he was wrong from the beginning, he was wrong to Meng Guqing, and even more wrong to Jia Yin.

Meng Guqing was just a show girl to marry, and she was reduced to being imprisoned for life, and it was nothing more than killing people and setting fires, the dignified queen sacrificed her whole life because of such a mistake.

These days, looking at the sick Jiayin, Fulin will always think of Meng Guqing, the quarrels in the past, her pride and arrogance, will always come to mind, Fulin especially misses her, misses the freest person in the world.

"Jia Yin, it was I who harmed you, harmed you......" Fu Lin Wuzi muttered, he got up and left the meditation room and came to the Buddha hall.

In the Buddha hall, Xingsen got up from under the Buddha shrine and saluted the emperor: "Your Majesty, you are here." ”

"Master." Fulin looked up at the Buddha in confusion and said, "In this life, I have a lot of sins and karma, how can I repay them?" ”
