Miss Qi also felt that she was really out of character to cry like this in front of the Queen Mother, so she hurriedly got up and left, not daring to delay the Queen Mother's affairs. As soon as she left, Emperor Yongchang strode in from outside, his eyes swept around everyone, and when he saw that they were all lowering his eyebrows, he saluted and greeted Empress Dowager Cui.

"Why does the emperor still come to this with the mourning family?" Empress Dowager Cui waved her hand, and with a faint face, she motioned to Gong E, who was beating her legs, to step back, and asked softly: "What's the matter, the mourning family heard that something happened in the palace?" ”

Just now, Shi Gonggong came in in a hurry, saying that she heard that all the imperial doctors in the palace had been summoned to Concubine Xian's palace, she was a little puzzled, at first she thought that Concubine Xian was advancing with retreat and pretending to be sick, but later, she thought about it carefully, and knew that it could not be Concubine Xian pretending to be sick.

Concubine Xian is a hundred times smarter than Concubine De, and she is not such a reckless person.

Now that Emperor Yongchang has come over in person, Empress Dowager Cui rubbed her eyebrows and asked.

Emperor Yongchang's face was not very good-looking: "Princess Lu killed herself." ”

Princess Lu Gao?

Empress Dowager Cui's face sank.

Of course, she doesn't like Princess Lu very much, but not because she favors Princess Zhou, but because Princess Lu is really a bit outrageous, although Da Zhou's requirements for women are to follow their fathers at home, marry their husbands, and follow their husbands to their sons, but Princess Lu only did the second thing.

Except for her husband's words as a golden rule, no one else is in her eyes.

Even the little emperors and grandchildren can't get her liking, she treats her children at will, and even only treats them as a weight to invite pets, which makes Empress Dowager Cui really look down on her.

Princess Lu is like a silk flower that can only cling to a man's life, but it is even worse than a silk flower.

Now that she heard that Princess Lu was dead, she frowned, and sneered: "It's really a seed of infatuation." ”

That's what I said, but in fact the tone doesn't mean praise.

Emperor Yongchang naturally knew the ridicule in Empress Dowager Cui's words, he was not dissatisfied this time, but lowered his voice and said: "Before she died, she took all the blame on herself, saying that she did it, and it was only because she cared about the old things that King Lu had outside in the past, so she targeted the two girls of the Lu family." ”

These words sound flawless, but flawless is the biggest flaw.

Empress Dowager Cui sighed, and this time said bluntly: "It's really infatuated, Concubine Xian is afraid that she can't go out so open-mindedly, she is an infatuated species, but in comparison, the fourth child is too cold." ”

It is indeed very serious to make a big mistake.

But to put it mildly, Emperor Yongchang has a total of so many sons, as long as he doesn't really rebel, he basically doesn't have to worry about his life.

King Lu admitted that he did the thing himself, and he might be treated coldly, or he might be demoted, or he might be imprisoned.

But that's all there is to it.

But he chose to push Princess Lu out to take the blame.

Emperor Yongchang was silent for a long time.

He sighed lightly after a long time: "What the queen mother said is that it is too affectionate, and being an emperor is indeed to be sensible, but it is so unkind, it only makes people feel cold." What's more, their husband and wife don't know, what Ying Changshi explained is not very different from what they said to their husband and wife, such as collusion with Huangfu Zhongyi."

Although Ying Changshi also insisted that it was because the Ying family also had a grudge against the Lu family.

But where are there so many grievances to settle with?

Even if it is a grudge, just because of this personal grudge, he will collude with the minister to kill people, who will believe this?

King Lu asked Princess Lu to come out today, and he may feel that the crime has been reduced.

But for Emperor Yongchang, it was precisely this incident that completely condemned him.

Empress Dowager Cui sighed, her chest was a little dull, and when she saw that Emperor Yongchang had a very ugly face when she talked about these things, she also knew that this son was also sad in her heart, so she said: "The mourning family always thinks that it would be good if the prince didn't have an accident." ”

Yes, if the first prince didn't have an accident, then whether it was civil and martial arts, or according to etiquette, he would be the undoubted successor, and he would be a righteous prince, so where would there be anything to do with his younger brothers?

As long as the prince himself did not make a mistake, no one could cross him.

King Lu and King Zhou don't have to make trouble like this.

What's the difference between fratricide and fratricide now?

Speaking of the first prince, Emperor Yongchang's mood was even worse, his chest hurt, and he closed his eyes: "Yes, if nothing happened to him, it would be fine." It's just a pity that he won't come back."

He felt uncomfortable, lowered his eyes and leaned lightly on the back of the chair, and whispered: "Queen Mother, every time I think of the first prince, I feel a heartache. So I didn't want to make a prince for so many years, and I also know that you all think that I am seriously suspicious and sick, in fact, I do not want to make a prince, but it is not because I am suspicious, but the third and fourth children really can't catch up with the prince."

King Lu has been talking a little bit recently, and he used to mess with flowers and grass everywhere, what does it look like?

King Zhou is okay, but he is too arbitrary, probably because he has been in the army since he was a child, King Zhou is very harsh in employing people, and he can hardly tolerate any mistakes and omissions.

But how is this possible?

As long as you are human, you will make mistakes.

This is also the reason why Emperor Yongchang was dissatisfied with both sons.

Of course, it's not a matter of satisfaction or dissatisfaction now.

He also knew it was time to settle down.

Empress Dowager Cui reached out and touched Emperor Yongchang's head for the first time.

Emperor Yongchang used to be only close to his nursing mother, and even had a much better relationship with Mrs. Wang for a period of time than with the Empress Dowager Cui, even after the Empress Dowager Cui reconciled with him, she would rarely touch him like this.

Touching his head like this now is as if both mother and son have returned to their previous days in the mansion of the vassal king.

Emperor Yongchang couldn't help but have some hot eyes: "Queen Mother, did the son disappoint his father?" ”

If the first emperor knew that his sons had become like this, dead and stupid, stupid and stupid, and finally two of them were normal, but you fought to the death, you would definitely jump up and scold him, right?

Empress Dowager Cui rarely encouraged her son, she used to be strict with herself, and she treated her children the same, but now, it is different, she smiled softly: "Who said that?" The emperor's family, no dynasty is indispensable for such a thing, you haven't made any big mistakes, besides, you govern the country well, this is better than many people, your father has a spirit in the sky, and he will definitely be proud of you. ”

Emperor Yongchang never thought that Empress Ami's evaluation of him would be so high, and he was a little flattered for a while, pursed his lips and looked at Empress Dowager Cui, and couldn't help but smile for a while.
