Chapter 208: Calamity Cloud
Everyone got the news about Empress Miao's driving through their respective secret agents and other channels, but there has been no official news in the palace.
Su Ruoshui returned to the palace and felt like grass had grown, and she couldn't sit still, rubbing her hands as she walked. I don't know if the old monk can do things well, and I don't know why the palace hasn't officially released the news of the queen's driving, in case Queen Miao doesn't die, it's bad.
"Mother." Chang Zhong was forced by Su Ruoshui to go into the palace in person to find out the news, and when he came back, he saw Su Ruoshui anxiously walking around the courtyard. "The old slave is back."
"Tell me quickly, do you have any letter in the palace?" Su Ruoshui's eager eyes flashed with fire.
"There's really something big going on in the palace." Chang Zhong said unhurriedly: "The manager of the imperial dining room Zhou has been arrested. ”
Su Ruoshui looked at Chang Zhong speechlessly, can you say something useful? Who cares about Mr. Zhou? The filial princess cares about her mother-in-law, Comrade Miao Shiying.
"The emperor sent someone to check Empress Miao's accounts, and the head of the Internal Affairs Office Chu was also arrested."
"Father-in-law Chang, let's pick the important thing first." Su Ruoshui was impatient to listen to this.
"The emperor was very angry and was furious in the imperial study." Chang Zhong was talking, and Su Ruoshui turned around and left.
"Niangniang" Chang Zhong walked two steps quickly and caught up and said. "The emperor said that it must be strict"
"Grandpa Chang!" Su Ruoshui stood still, and his face sank. When did Chang Zhong become so unreliable? "This palace doesn't want to hear about those trivial things, what I want to know is is if there is a big thing in the palace? Event! ”
"This is a big deal, the emperor wants to abolish the title of Empress Miao."
"Huh?" Su Ruoshui's head 'buzzed', and he felt a roar at that time.
Her understanding is that Empress Miao's death is fake, if Empress Miao dies, the emperor can be the queen if he wants, so why abolish the title?
Now it seems that Empress Miao is not dead, and the emperor is anxious to make Emperor Jing's concubine the queen, so he wants to abolish the title of Empress Miao.
There are many reasons for abolishing Empress Miao's title, why did the emperor use the method of auditing to convict her?
Su Ruoshui remembered that the comparison of the expenses on the account book she gave to Emperor Jing was so obvious, it seemed that this awakening was not in vain, and Emperor Jing Concubine really reported the account book to the emperor.
None of this is important, the important thing is that if Queen Miao is not dead, the old monk will have almost no chance of success.
"The emperor has only checked the accounts for three years, and he is in a hurry to abolish the title of Queen Miao before the previous ones have been checked." Chang Zhong said slowly but forcefully: "The old slave speculated in vain that Queen Miao should be more than lucky. ”
The emperor must have had the idea of abolishing the queen, but he didn't rush to start. His audit was by no means to rectify Queen Miao, Queen Miao had been pushed to the bottom, and there was no need to step on it again.
So why not check the accounts? It must be that something big happened to Queen Miao, and the emperor wants to abolish Queen Miao first.
Because the title is not abolished, she has to be buried according to the queen's specifications, carry her into the imperial mausoleum, and be buried in the queen's position, and the concubine of Emperor Jing will probably go out of the palace to pray for the country again.
After listening to Chang Zhong's analysis, Su Ruoshui's heart was a little more stable. Shayue sighed in disappointment: "Bai is happy, I thought the prince was coming back." ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Qingyun pushed her, how could she talk nonsense?
Su Ruoshui looked at the moon with questioning eyes, what does this have to do with the prince?
"If the queen dies, it will be a state funeral, and the prince must rush back. If the one who dies is a criminal concubine, of course the prince doesn't have to pay attention to it. ”
Su Ruoshui didn't say a word and went directly to the studio to embroider.
waited for a day and didn't wait for any news, and the next day Emperor Jinluan proposed to abolish the title of Empress Miao and demote Miao Shiying to a concubine. The Miao family has long been uprooted, and naturally no one has raised objections.
In the evening, it was rumored in the palace that Empress Miao was stimulated by the demotion and committed suicide by taking poison. The emperor took pity on his fierceness and ordered someone to take care of Miao Shiying's funeral affairs with the specifications of 'concubine'.
The concubine is one level lower than the concubine, but there is no mourning after the death of the queen of the dynasty, the cold and deserted mourning hall is extremely simple to bury, and the funeral goods are only the Jin Chuan on her left arm.
Su Ruoshui only glanced at it, put incense on her and left. She thought she was a cool person, but she didn't expect that she was the only one in the entire harem to mourn.
Su Ruoshui sat on the prince Luan, took a large team of guards, and went to Lingyun Temple to burn incense and pray for the country.
The abbot took the four major classes out of the mountain gate to greet, accompanied by the abbot, Su Ruoshui burned a few pillars of incense, of course, it was inevitable to donate some incense money, and the beautiful name was to add blessings and longevity to the emperor and the concubine of the Jing Emperor.
The elder took out a small gray box and presented it to Su Ruoshui with both hands: "Your Royal Highness the Crown Princess, this is the guardian talisman prepared by Lao Kute for Niangniang, and it will definitely be able to bless Niangniang with good wishes." ”
"Thank you, old Zen master." Su Ruoshui took the fluttering small box, and her heart suddenly blossomed.
How can you still be in the mood to be polite to the bald asses here? Let's drive back to the palace immediately.
What treasure can make the crown princess so happy? Of course, it was the emperor's hair that got his hands on it. She sat in the sedan chair and couldn't wait to open the box, and the old monk really had two clicks.
It's really hard to find such perfect long dark gray and light black hair, and black, white, and light gray people have it.
Su Ruoshui collected a total of seven colors of hair, from jet black to pure white, and this time the merit was finally completed.
In fact, without the emperor's hair, she can embroider a fairly perfect landscape map, but Su Ruoshui, who is more serious to the extreme, must create an absolutely perfect landscape map, and if the color of a hair is not satisfactory, she will not deal with it.
How did the old abbot get the emperor's hair? Of course, it was Su Ruoshui's idea. She revealed the news of Empress Miao's death to the old monk, and then asked him to enter the palace to face the saint.
The emperor was also a believer in Buddhism, and he had a lot of respect for the abbot of Lingyun Temple. There are not many times when the old abbot takes the initiative to enter the palace, and the emperor will definitely receive it.
The old abbot said to the emperor after seeing the salute: "Amitabha, the old man suddenly saw a star on the side of the emperor star fall at night, and the meteorite drew a black cloud straight to the emperor star. ”
The old abbot can't do anything else, pretending to be a god stick and pretending to be a real image. The nonsense is covered with clouds and mountains, and the emperor really believes it very much. The emperor's biggest worry is that Miao Shiying's Gu worm will not die after his death, so his future troubles will be endless.
The old monk was originally a fictional word, but it was exactly what the emperor was thinking. Needless to say, Miao Shiying, who just died last night, is the emperor's side. Drawing out the black clouds must be a Gu worm.
"How to resolve the disaster cloud?" The emperor's heart is sick, it's really a good doctor who took the initiative to come to the door.
