Chapter 398: The Mao Clan Seeks to Join Forces
Author: Skyrim Drive
After listening to these bits and pieces of reports, Queen Mao could feel Feng Ran's love for Feng Hexiang. She also doubted that the man who spoiled the child in the Commander's Mansion and could hold the child to the sky was really the legendary ruthless General Feng? She didn't love her children, but the royal family had royal rules, and she had never doted on the prince like Feng Ran, so was this the reason why she lost to Feng Ran?
Queen Mao is awake most of the time, and only when she is stimulated, will she suddenly have a hysterical seizure, and after she wakes up, she doesn't remember what she said or done when she had a seizure. Therefore, two days ago, Queen Mao fell asleep after being forcibly taken back to Fengqi Hall and poured a decoction to calm the nerves. According to the experience of His Royal Highness Fengqi, after the queen took the medicine, she would sleep peacefully for a long time, and that night everyone saw that Queen Mao fell asleep after taking the decoction, and they couldn't help but feel a little relieved and slack, and it was late at night, and everyone was lazy and napped.
No, this night, Queen Mao woke up after taking medicine and not sleeping for long. In the middle of the night, she didn't remember that she had just made a fuss outside the Jinghua Palace, but she thought of the prince from Feng Ran. Feng Ran went out to patrol the army, and He Yue took the prince back to the palace every three or five days or ten and a half days. Empress Mao calculated, she hadn't seen the prince for about six or seven days, and she thought about it, thinking that tomorrow she should hand the emperor a note from the middle palace to remind him and let the prince return to the palace to save his relatives.
Feng Ran sincerely likes the prince, and he is also sincerely good to the prince, and the prince is happier than living in the palace, which makes Queen Mao feel at ease. After thinking about the prince for a while, Queen Mao couldn't help but think of Princess Rong from the prince. The children raised in the palace, upbringing and living, are taught and cared for by special nurturing grandmothers and nurses, and most of the concubines are just responsible for supervision, and they are ordered to do whatever they need, and they rarely do anything for the children with their own hands.
The prince was dyed by the wind and left, and he was not close to him, which made sense, but Princess Rong was raised by her side, and she was not as close to herself as the nurse and grandmother beside her. This kind of alienation, Queen Mao, as a mother, feels obvious. But I think the children in the palace have grown up like this, and when they grow up and are sensible, they know that the concubines in the harem are their mothers, and the nurses who take care of them are just subordinates, so they will naturally alienate their subordinates and get close to their own mothers. However, this kind of closeness is not cultivated from childhood, it is a conclusion drawn from rational understanding, and without the accumulation of feelings and the precipitation of time, this kind of closeness will have a sense of dissociation and hypocrisy.
After seeing the completely different ways of raising children by Feng Ran, Queen Mao couldn't help but have doubts. I feel that the children raised in the palace are all young and old, full of style, more than respectful to the elders, not close enough, commanding the subordinates, flying and arrogant, not at all as lively and cheerful as the prince, although there is less restraint and respect for the elders, but it is a pure heart, although the subordinates are also called to come and go, but there is no such domineering momentum. As the prince stayed by Kaze's side, the contrast between the prince and the children in the palace became clearer.
Queen Mao couldn't sleep for a while, so she pondered and thought a lot about it all night. suddenly thought that a few days ago, Princess Rong was clamoring to pick the lotus pod outside Jinghan Xuan to eat. How dare the grandmothers let Princess Yan run to pick the lotus pod by herself? So they directly took some fresh lotus seeds and lotus rice to coax Princess Rong to eat. But the child wants to pick the lotus pod to eat, the key fun is to pick, not eat, although Princess Rong ate the lotus seed and lotus rice, but her heart is very unhappy. When Princess Rong saw Queen Mao, she timidly begged the queen mother to allow her to pick lotus flowers. Queen Mao didn't understand what Princess Rong meant, so she even asked someone to pick a few lotus canopies and give them to Princess Rong to play with. This made Princess Rong depressed, and she was unhappy for several days. Queen Mao asked her, but she didn't say.
In the quiet night, Queen Mao's thinking was very clear, thinking about it, and suddenly understood Princess Rong's intention to pick lotus flowers, so she thought that Ming'er agreed to Princess Rong's request and let her pick lotus flowers to play. In Queen Mao's heart, there is a bit of comparison, Feng Dye will take the child, she will also bring, the wind dye can do it for the child, she can also do it for the child. It's just that I don't know how to pick the lotus pod, will it be dangerous? Queen Mao thought that she would go to Jinghanxuan first.
Queen Mao is full of desire to be good to Princess Rong, and wants to spoil Princess Rong like Feng Ran, but she can't keep the prince, and it's good to keep the princess's close feelings for her. So in the middle of the night, Queen Mao was hot-headed for a while, so she got up and went to Jinghan Xuan by herself, and when she was comparing how to reach the lotus canopy in the pond on the curved corridor, she didn't want to really stumble and fell into the water!
The real reason why she fell into the water, Queen Mao only mentioned it to Shan Lulian, and didn't say anything to anyone, and only said that the Queen Mother was confused for a while, and she didn't know why she fell into the water. She summoned Feng Ran overnight, not to justify the reason why she fell into the water, but in the face of this man who robbed her husband and son, Queen Mao instinctively wanted to confront Feng Ran, and felt that she couldn't lose her momentum in front of Feng Ran, so she couldn't help but defend herself.
Queen Mao leaned on Shan Lulian, panting one after another, and said: "Xiang'er can be loved by General Feng, which is also his blessing." I just want to ask General Feng to promise to the palace, and after a hundred years of His Majesty, the general will fully support Xiang'er to succeed to the throne. ”
Feng Ran was a little surprised, Queen Mao summoned her overnight, just to say this to herself: He Yue is in the prime of her youth, and now she will explain what He Yue will do a hundred years later, this is too early! Besides, He Yue also has the meaning of passing on the throne Feng He sounded, but Feng Ran wanted to come from the child's heart, and did not force the succession. Empress Mao asked Feng Ran to fully support Feng He Xiangxiang to succeed to the throne, but it was difficult for Feng Dye to succeed him. Feng Ran didn't want to tell Queen Mao what he thought, so he only responded: "The minister will do his best." ”
Empress Mao listened to Feng Ran's rather perfunctory words, but it seemed that a big stone had fallen in her heart, and she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "General Feng must remember today's words...... In the future, if the palace is gone, Xiang'er will have to rely on the general's care and support. ”
What do you mean by "if the main palace is no longer there in the future"? This sounds very ominous. Besides, Feng He Xiangxiang has already been passed on to Feng Ran, and Feng Ran should take care of him wholeheartedly, so how can she get Queen Mao's repeated instructions? Or did Queen Mao have a lunane attack and forgot that the prince had already passed on to Feng Ran? Feng Ran reminded with a thorn in his words: "Xiang'er is the son of a minister, and the minister should do his best to take care of him, and the mother does not need to worry." ”
"This palace will inform my Mao family, and in the future, I should take General Feng's horse head as a vision, work with one heart and one mind, and jointly assist the prince to succeed to the throne. ”
...... Queen Mao summoned herself overnight, and it turned out that this sentence was the key!
Feng Ran robbed Queen Mao's husband and son, and the Mao family has always hated Feng Ran. However, in order to support Fenghe Xiangxiang to succeed to the throne, Queen Mao did not hesitate to abandon her previous suspicions and let the Mao family take refuge in Fengran, but she couldn't fight Fengran, so she gave up some of her interests, put down her body, turned enemies into friends, and pulled Fengran into her own people.
was dyed by the wind and took away her only son-in-law, although it made Queen Mao feel painful, but after learning from the pain and thinking deeply, Queen Mao felt that it was not a good move to succeed the prince to the wind dye.
In order to improve the status of the eldest prince, He Dan also pointed out to Concubine Wu to raise, and before the age of the king, he was crowned Prince Wu early, and promised that Concubine Wu could return to Prince Wu's fiefdom in the future, which is a special honor.
Although the second prince He Li is not particularly loved by the emperor, he can't stand the second prince's mother's concubine, the Guan family, is strong, deep-rooted, and powerful all over the court. Even the emperor has the blood of the Guan family in his body, and the empress dowager died for the emperor, so that the emperor does not dare to take action to clean up the Guan family's forces easily.
Empress Mao looked back at the crown prince. Before the prince succeeded to Feng Dye, the emperor didn't like himself and didn't like the prince very much, and the Mao family was swept out of the court by the emperor, although the prince was born as the prince, but the prince was neither liked by the emperor, but the mother family has no strength, whether he can succeed to the throne, there are too many variables, it is really difficult to say.
In the future, the three princes will compete for the throne, and Queen Mao is not sure.
However, after the crown prince succeeded Feng Ran, the pattern of the three sons competing for the throne suddenly became the crown prince's dominance! First of all, the emperor became very fond of the prince, far surpassing the other two sons, and secondly, Feng Ran held heavy troops and was in charge of military power alone, and he could almost compete with the emperor. As long as there are no accidents, there is no suspense about the crown prince succeeding to the throne in the future.
As the saying goes, there is giving. On the surface, it was the prince who was dyed by the wind and left, but unexpectedly held the future throne firmly in the hands of the prince.
Based on this idea, Empress Mao did not insist on having another son with the emperor. wants to have another son, more of the queen mother's thoughts. The queen mother wanted to take the opportunity to restore some of the Mao's power first, and then the Li family and the Mao family joined forces to support the second son-in-law to succeed to the throne, so that the Mao family and the Li family could seek more benefits in the court. Now that Empress Mao knows exactly that her eldest son will succeed to the throne, why does she want to give birth to a second son to compete with her eldest son? Therefore, He Yueqian delayed and refused to have sex with her, and Empress Mao was not in a hurry at all, and it didn't matter, only the Queen Mother was in a hurry.
How could Feng Ran expect that he couldn't say a few words to Queen Mao, and he directly turned to the factional struggle of the court gangs? But the Mao family united with him in order to support Feng He Xiangxiang to ascend to the throne, and Feng Ran couldn't categorically refuse, and continued to perfunctory: "Everyone is loyal to the country and should be of one heart and one mind." ”
As if she didn't understand, Queen Mao stared at her again: "General Feng must remember today's words! Feng Mao joined forces, worked together sincerely, and assisted the prince." "Deliberately misinterpreted the perfunctory nature of the wind dye, and forcibly tied the wind dye to the Mao family.
