Chapter 172: There is no rule
Chapter 172: There is no rule
Qing Ruifan was not in a hurry at all, the medicine Lan Yi found for him could allow Gu Lingge to spend this early autumn, thinking about it, the two of them have known each other for so long, and the time is really unpredictable.
In the early days of the heavens, some people in the court questioned Gu Lingge's position as the queen. Liu Chang, the squire of the Imperial Historical Stage, is already a gray-haired old man, but he is extremely loyal to the royal family, although he usually looks rigid, but in general there is no danger. There are times when Qing Ruifan needs his opinion, but not now.
Liu Chang stood up with Yugui and said in a dignified manner: "The position of the queen is related to the harmony of the middle palace and the unity of the people. Now the queen is frail and sickly, and the minister heard that the queen can't even get off the bed, * There are many miscellaneous things, how can such a weak body be qualified to be the master of the harem? β
Qing Ruifan played with the jade wrench that Gu Lingge gave him in the morning, glanced at Liu Chang casually, and then asked, "What does Liu Aiqing think?" He had heard too many of these clichΓ©s, and he had not had time to reply before, and these people had to take an inch. Since there are emerging birds now, then don't fight for nothing.
"The emperor is sage, the minister thinks that the queen should be relieved to recuperate at the moment, and only the health of the phoenix is the blessing of the country." Liu Chang's words were not finished, and he was ready to take a breath before continuing. This young emperor was so imposing that he couldn't breathe.
"According to what Liu Shilang said, the position of the harem is vacant, so dare to ask who Liu Shilang plans to let take over?" Ouyang took Yugui out of the queue and looked at Liu Chang without showing weakness.
Ouyang looked upright, which also made Qing Ruifan interested. The reason why these ministers tried every possible way to remove Gu Lingge was because Gu Lingge had no power and power, and he had nothing to do with any of the courtiers in this palace, but there was a powerful force that made everyone's hearts palpitate, and such a person was naturally unfavorable to the emperor.
In the final analysis, it's just that they just want to get rid of this one they don't know well, and replace it with one they know the roots, and it's best to ask for them. The inferiority of officials is here, they don't have the courage to control the royal power, and they don't want to produce an emperor who can't control it. This Manchu Dynasty civil and military, jackals, tigers and leopards, it takes a lot of effort to distinguish clearly.
"In the harem, in terms of qualifications, Concubine Chen's mother should be respected, and in terms of identity, Concubine Wan should be respected. The two complement each other, and they will be able to live in harmony and order. "Liu Chang has been an official in the court for many years, and he doesn't look like an easy person to be bribed, but the two candidates he proposed can't help but make Qing Ruifan worried. Wang Jingchen has always been a clueless, she can't think of accepting a waiter, Yang Li'er shouldn't be able to think of this for the time being, she seems to be calculating with the imperial doctor how to give birth to an heir.
"The minister seconded the proposal." Another civil official stepped forward, and eight courtiers already seconded it. Qing Ruifan squinted at Qing Ruiting and Qing Ruiyang, the former gave him a look, and the latter seemed to be in a fugue. Qing Ruiting stood up and looked at Qing Ruifan's dark eyes without humility or arrogance:
"Your Majesty, the courtiers thought that the queen was not so weak. Niangniang is a strange woman who can shoot two bears on the way back to Beijing and bravely kill the enemy at the border, which cannot be compared with the ladies in Kyoto. Moreover, when the emperor ascended the throne, he said that the queen is like the emperor, unshakable and unmistakable. If the younger brother is not mistaken, just now Liu Shilang said that the queen couldn't get out of bed, dare to ask Liu Shilang saw it with his own eyes? If so, how did Liu Shilang and his civil officials enter the harem? If not, where did Liu Shilang hear the news? β
Qing Ruiting's face was expressionless, and he asked questions again and again, and Liu Chang's face turned pale. Maybe that's why he's mixed up now, his beard is gray and he's just a waiter, it's too rigid.
"I didn't say this before, because I thought that you also care about me, so I accepted this intention. Who knows that some people have been stirring up, and it is endless. Qing Ruifan finally sat up straight, looked at the dark robe kneeling on the ground in front of him, snorted and continued, "Seeing that it is early autumn, the ministers don't know that they are worried about the floods of the Yellow River, and they don't know that they care about the people's food and clothing, so they know that they are biting my housework?" I am raising the pillars of the country, not a bunch of mad dogs. β
Qing Ruiting added in a timely manner: "Maybe the ministers don't trust the queen." Qing Ruifan also took this opportunity to show his anger, looked at them and snorted coldly: "If that's the case, then go back and think about how to treat the queen's weakness." β
He called Ouyang and Qing Ruiting to stay, and let Lan Yi retire. Ouyang seems to be Gu Lingge's person, not long ago, he had never heard of such a person, but this time he would be able to enter the Yongyuan Hall to participate in the court meeting with the ministers.
Apse.
Gu Lingge sat on the soft cushion and looked at Jiang Quanyue, who was dressed in plain clothes in front of him. She hadn't seen her for a long time, since she walked out of Fenglan Palace, although she could hear her news every day, she herself had passed a lot of news to herself, and she also knew that she had tied the knot with Lan Yi, but she really saw another scene.
"Is the mother okay?" Jiang Quanyue looked at Gu Lingge, she was much thinner than before, her face was pale, and she was haggard, but a pair of calm eyes told her that this was indeed the queen Murong Zhi who had been dominant. She knew that Gu Lingge was poisoned, and she even reported the news to Qing Ruifan.
"Let's get by." Gu Lingge didn't know how to reply to her. Jiang Quanyue, or Qi Juan, is now someone else's wife, and she is doing well, and she doesn't want to trouble her with her messy things again. She has been with her in this palace for a long time, and she has also faced doubts and finding faults with her, already, enough.
"Can the mother's poison be cured?" Jiang Quanyue felt that it was inappropriate when he asked this sentence, after all, Gu Lingge knew the person with the best medical skills in the world today. But Gu Lingge shook her head, maybe she didn't know how sad her expression was.
"Is there anything I need to do?" Jiang Quanyue is also unambiguous. She knew what Gu Lingge needed now, so she tried to help her do what she could. She didn't believe that Gu Lingge would stay in Yongyuan Hall like this all the time. Although the medicine that Qing Ruifan gave her was found by her husband, she also promised that there would be no other bad effects, but the medicine was poisonous.
"I recognize a younger brother." Gu Lingge thought that it would be okay anyway, Liulizhuang was so big, she could save one if she could. Jiang Quanyue looked very serious listening to her. "His name is Lu Nan, and he is safe for the time being. I want you to pull him when I'm dead. β
Ignoring Jiang Quanyue's surprised eyes, Gu Lingge said very seriously: "After I die, if you see him alone, pull him along." Although he is still a child, his brain is still enough, and he will be independent on his own in less than three years. Lu Nan is the most talented child she has met in recent years, and in her heart, she still hopes that he can live in peace.
"Did you already foresee that day?" Jiang Quanyue vaguely knew what Gu Lingge was talking about, she didn't want to admit it, but Gu Lingge had already accepted it, and was calmly arranging countermeasures. Her voice trembled as she asked this, and she didn't understand what the same sadness and despair looked like in the aftermath of this arrangement.
"There will be that day." Gu Lingge gave an ambiguous answer, then slowly closed his eyes and hummed an unknown ballad. Jiang Quanyue sat with her quietly. At noon, Qing Ruifan strode in, looked at Jiang Quanyue and waved her down.
Gu Lingge was already asleep, she was nested in a ball, although her legs and feet were weak, she was still curled up, like a pure and flawless newborn baby and like a warrior waiting for her. Lan Yi walked in and asked if he wanted to pass the meal, Qing Ruifan shook his head and motioned for Lan Yi to walk lightly. Lan Yi walked out with a smile on the corner of his mouth, although he had already noticed that Gu Lingge was awake.
Gu Lingge didn't want to get up, she was like being in an ice cave now, and she couldn't move even lower her waist. Sensing Qing Ruifan's hand drawn on her face, she even grabbed that hand directly and held it in her arms, and the continuous warmth was conveyed, Gu Lingge felt at ease, and she wanted to fall asleep in a groggy mood.
"Niangniang, Niangniang, wake up soon, it's not too late for us to eat and go to sleep." Someone said so in the dream. Gu Lingge opened his eyes and found himself sitting on a chair in Fenglan Palace, basking in the sun and wearing a cloak on his body. Lixia stood beside her, holding a soup woman in her hand, and looked at her with a smile on her face. "There's fish to eat today, the fish you've always wanted to eat."
Gu Lingge laughed, bent his eyebrows, and then a lilac-flavored silk scarf wiped away his tears, "Niangniang is really, I'm not happy if I don't cook fish, I'm not happy when I cook fish, it's really hard to serve." Lixia stood against the light, and she smiled very beautifully, with the delicate air of a small jasper.
"yes, I still want you to feed me." Gu Lingge stood up, uncovered his cloak, and wanted to give it to Lixia as soon as he sent it back, but Lixia didn't receive it at all. The cloak fell to the ground, and Gu Lingge stood up and looked at Li Xia, with doubts and incomprehension in his eyes. Lixia has always been the most nimble with her hands and feet.
"Niangniang has to take care of herself, you see that you have lost a lot of weight." Gu Lingge didn't pay attention to what Li Xia was saying, and only saw that her body was translucent under the sun. Obviously, the sound is the same, but it's not real at all. "Niangniang must take care of her body, there is no endless road, and there will be a way for everything." Lixia was still smiling, and the familiar smiling face made Gu Lingge feel sad.
"Lixia, Lixia, Lixia......" Lixia retreated step by step, Gu Lingge also chased forward step by step, Lixia was still smiling, just like when she entered Fenglan Palace, Lixia led everyone to stand under the main hall and salute her. The sun was also very good that day, and Lixia looked as if it was really her wings, her right-hand man in the high walls of this deep palace.
She's still talking.
She told Gu Lingge that she must protect herself,
She said that if there is a palace maid who will still be Gu Lingge in the next life,
She said, "Niangniang, don't be afraid, Lixia is here ......"
Gu Lingge woke up, didn't care about the tears on his face, and dragged his legs that were about to go numb towards Fenglan Palace. Qing Ruifan followed behind her, and wanted to help her to be pushed away, so she could only follow with blue clothes. He didn't know that Gu Lingge's heart was dripping blood, and he didn't know why Gu Lingge was in such a hurry to go to Fenglan Palace.
He only knew that Gu Lingge's figure was like a wolf with an arrow wound, stubborn and desperate.
