Chapter 1044: An Unexpected Answer
"Slut, presumptuous!" The emperor stood up and slapped him fiercely, as if he wanted to throw out all his unwillingness and anger.
The concubine's eyes were full of stars, her ears were ringing, the corners of her mouth were bloody, and she was unable to lie on the ground, but she was still laughing.
This made the emperor more and more angry and lost his mind, and shouted loudly, "Bring the second prince here!" ”
The second prince has been weak since he was a child, and he went to bed early at night, but he was arrested in his bedclothes and detained in the next room.
At this moment, he was dragged and thrown into the house by the guards, and fell beside his mother, and he couldn't recover for a long time.
The concubine finally smiled and began to be afraid.
She struggled to get up, hugged her pale son tightly, and shouted inwardly, "Your Majesty, the tiger is poisonous and does not eat children, he is your own son!" ”
"Huh, my son? He's your own son too! Send your mother and son to Huangquan today, and save you from worrying! The emperor's eyes were already red to black, and he didn't have the slightest gentle appearance at all.
The concubine finally knew that she was afraid, so she pounced forward after pulling the second prince.
"Please, father, don't kill you!"
The second prince didn't know what was going on, so he was suddenly pushed to his father's feet, raised a pair of ignorant and frightened eyes, and cried and asked, "Father, woo, I don't know what happened to my son......"
The emperor originally wanted to call someone to give an order, but suddenly choked in his throat.
This son was born with a medicine jar, and he didn't bother to follow it, and he finally raised it to such a big age, so he naturally loved it......
The blood red in his eyes receded little by little, and at the end of the day, he ruthlessly pushed the second prince away and pointed at the concubine.
"If you want to survive, use your means. Otherwise, I will never leave a useless person behind! ”
"Yes, yes!" The concubine was afraid that the emperor would regret it, so she immediately shouted, "I have a list in my hand, all of which are officials that the Queen Mother has secretly contacted through me, and two of them are something you would never have imagined!" ”
"Who is it?" The emperor immediately asked, but the concubine refused to answer, but said, "Your Majesty, the concubine knows that she is guilty of death, but the concubine does everything for the sake of the child, and the concubine does not have the slightest selfishness."
Now, the concubines are also willing to help the emperor dig out the two biggest hidden dangers. I just ask the emperor to take pity on the second prince since he was a child, his body has been weak since he was a child, and his life span is not long, so he will spare him this time. Even if you kick him out of the palace, you must spare his life and keep him safe from food and clothing.
"Ask the emperor to answer!"
The concubine knelt upright and began to kowtow.
Within two clicks, her hair ornament was completely gone, her hair was scattered, and her forehead was bruised.
The second prince felt sorry for his mother and tried desperately to stop him, but he couldn't stop it, but he fell to the ground tired......
In the end, the emperor's heart softened a little, and when the concubine's forehead was bloody, he finally promised, "As long as you do what you say, I will keep the second prince clothed and fed for the rest of his life." ”
"The eldest prince is ......" the concubine is still not at ease.
The emperor waved his hand, with a bit of certainty in his expression.
"The eldest prince will never do anything to a sick and weak brother, and I will leave a secret decree when the time comes."
But the concubine refused to believe it, and began to kowtow again, almost fainting.
The emperor couldn't, so he could only write a secret decree on the spot, and even asked Manager Yi to send it to the imperial study to build a jade seal.
Seeing that the second prince was holding the secret decree, the concubine finally let go completely.
She struggled forward and hugged her son tightly.
From the birth of the child to the present, all the past flashes by like a movie.
For the sake of this piece of meat that fell from her body, she almost worked hard, just for his peace and joy and healthy growth.
It's a pity that now, everything has failed.
She wiped away a handful of tears and choked up, "It's the concubine who is useless and can't earn you the throne." But it's okay to be weak, and if you are a rich man, you can grow old safely.
"In the future, the mother concubine will not be able to accompany you. You must remember to take care of yourself and give incense to your mother during the New Year's holidays to bring peace to you. ”
"Mother!" The second prince was so frightened that he tore the concubine's shirt and cried, "Don't leave the princess, the princess is afraid, woo, the son is afraid!" ”
The mother and son parted from life and death, and the crying Manager Yi lowered his head more and more.
The emperor was also silent for a long time, and then he instructed Mr. Yi, "Take the second prince down and settle down well." ”
Manager Yi hurriedly stepped forward and helped the second prince to get up.
The two personal grandmothers who served the second prince before have followed them since childhood, one is good at eating, and the other is good at needlework.
The two were originally pressed into the courtyard, thinking that they must be dead.
Unexpectedly, at this time, they were suddenly summoned and ordered.
It's not beheading, it's not poisonous wine, it's actually waiting for the second prince to rest.
The two of them burst into tears of ecstasy, hurriedly picked up the second prince, and persuaded them to return to the side hall.
Mr. Yi glanced at the back of the second prince, this child is also a blessing.
Although he was born in the royal family, he had a mother who was willing to die for him, and he was forced to find a way for him to become a rich idler......
In the house, only the concubine and the emperor were quiet at this time.
The concubine didn't delay any longer, and tried her best to earn a little more affection for her son, so she immediately said two names.
The emperor glared in surprise and blurted out, "Impossible!" ”
These two people, one is his mentor, he has supported him since he was a teenager, although he begged for bones early and has been cultivating at home for several years, but his children and grandchildren are still officials in the court, and they have always been his right-hand man.
The other person is a military general he trusts very much, and he has personally been promoted from the guard all the way to the commander, that is, this person's wife was specially given to him for marriage, and now he guards the gate of the new capital,......
The concubine was worried about her son, but thinking that she was about to face death, she was still angry in her heart, so she carefully stabbed it.
"The emperor doesn't know, your little grandson of the four generations of the family was poisoned by the Queen Mother, and he needs an antidote every month, otherwise he will die of poison.
Therefore, he promised the Queen Mother to secretly fully support the second prince's accession to the throne, support the Queen Mother to listen to the government, and his son, who was a waiter, would also climb to the position of Shangshu.
"And the commander you trust, there is a girl who has been a childhood sweetheart since childhood, and she has already agreed to marry, but you forcibly gave marriage, and true love has become a concubine, and she is depressed and sick every day.
"Of course he will hate you, just wait for you to die, divorce the wife of the royal gift, straighten the concubine, and the children will change from concubines to concubines!"
The emperor's face was gloomy, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence, "Okay, it's really good!" ”
With that, he got up and walked out.
The concubine was a little panicked, stumbled and chased to the door, and when she wanted to shout a few words, she was gagged by the guards and thrown into the house with a strong tie......
In Zhilan Palace, Shui Ling and Shui Yun originally wanted to take turns guarding the door, but they were too worried, so the two sisters simply sat together, supervised each other, and remained vigilant.
At the end of the road outside the door, there were mixed footsteps from time to time, and there were faint cries and scoldings.
Even if Shui Ling was bold, he couldn't help but be a little scared at this time, and whispered to Shui Yun, "I want to go back to Broken Gold Beach, it's better to be at home." ”
Shui Yun took her in his arms and gently patted her on the back.
"I also want to go back, but the county lord probably wants to go back even more. But our presence in the palace is equivalent to putting a pair of eyes on the emperor for the family and the marquis. And it's the Liu family, the Jia family, the Gu family, and even many people who are looking at our family and following suit.
"The county lord looks like he eats, drinks and has fun here every day, and he is at ease, but he actually bears a lot of things. We can't do anything else, but we can accompany the county lord, listen to orders, and guard the door. ”
