Chapter 373: The Empress's Bewitchment
This condition has no effect on the previous Su Chengcheng, with Ye Yutai in charge, coupled with her status as the queen's niece, she really doesn't have to be afraid to do things.
But right now, what she has to fight against is the queen who gave her identity.
"I have one condition," Su Chengcheng said, "The competition between the third prince and the fourth prince, you can't be partial or interfere." ”
"Okay, this palace promises you."
After a while, the eldest princess and Su Chengcheng returned to the front of the main hall, and the guard first looked the eldest princess up and down, and then said, "Come with me." ”
The guard led them down a completely different path than the last time, and soon came to the attic.
Su Qingcheng didn't smell wormwood all the way, and it seemed that the elixir had indeed cured Emperor Dongling's illness.
The two pushed the door in, only to see that the emperor was already able to sit up, and the queen was carefully feeding soup by the bed.
"See Father, Mother." Princess Celestia is blessed.
"Xi'er is here, hurry up, come to my father's place."
Su Tingcheng noticed that Emperor Dongling's face was delicate and ruddy, and he was similar to the sick appearance of a few days ago.
"Father, are you well?"
"Alright, thanks to your elixir," Emperor Dongling said happily, "I am going to return to the court in a few days." ”
The eldest princess asked according to what Su Tingcheng had taught: "Then how is my father going to explain to the civil and military officials?" ”
"Originally, I wanted to choose one of your two younger brothers, but unfortunately they are not as good as you," the emperor patted the eldest princess on the shoulder, "I told the truth that I had a serious illness, and the imperial doctor misdiagnosed me and thought that I was dead, and you saved me." ”
His eyes were full of emotion, and after escaping death, he felt that it was not easy to live.
"Your Majesty, Xi'er said that she is just a woman, and I am afraid that she will not be able to convince the public."
The queen secretly poked the eldest princess, and her eyes signaled that she would say something.
The eldest princess said helplessly: "Yes, father, the third brother and the fourth brother are all excellent, I hope my father will think twice." ”
Emperor Dongling slapped the side of the bed angrily and said, "Who dares to question my decision!" ”
"If you don't look at the concubines, the king should write a holy decree appointing the eldest princess as the crown princess." Su Tingcheng knew in his heart that the queen had called the eldest princess here today for this holy decree.
With the emperor's own decree, even if there is an opinion, it will not help.
"Okay, come on, bring pen and ink!" The emperor said in a grand manner.
Su Qingcheng immediately gave the eldest princess a look, and the eldest princess understood, and said: "Father is not in a hurry, how can the holy decree be announced by the father in public to have a deterrent effect." ”
"You're right." The emperor thought about it, and he didn't plan to write a decree again.
The queen's face darkened, her original plan was not to let the emperor live to the day when she could show people!
"Let's write one just in case." The queen continued.
Just when the emperor hesitated, the eldest princess said, "Queen Mother, last night I dreamed of the miracle doctor who gave me the elixir. ”
The emperor was interested and curious: "Oh? What did the miracle doctor say? ”
"He said, this is a medicine that is poisonous," Speaking of this, the eldest princess paused and glanced at the queen, "All medicines have side effects while healing. ”
The queen's face turned blue instantly, she naturally knew that this medicine was Hell Lingzhi, and glared at the eldest princess with a warning look in her eyes.
Su Qingcheng secretly observed without saying a word, and saw the queen's hand quietly making a murderous gesture, frowning slightly.
The eldest princess's heart tightened, what the queen meant was that if she didn't obey obediently, she would kill Hao'er...... In her heart, she remembered the task given to her by Su Qingcheng.
"Father, my son has something to tell you, ...... six years ago"
"Ouyang Xi!" The queen blushed and glared at the Celestial Princess.
The emperor, who didn't know anything, was puzzled: "What's wrong?" ”
The queen immediately grabbed the eldest princess's hand and walked out, saying, "It's okay, the eldest princess's dress is dirty, and the concubine will take her to change it." ”
With that, the two left the dormitory.
At present, only the emperor and Su Chengcheng are left in the dormitory of Nuoda.
This is an opportunity created by Princess Celestia and cannot be wasted.
"Your Majesty, how are you feeling today?" Su Chengcheng Road.
Only then did the emperor notice that the dark-skinned palace maid on the side was the woman who had spoken to him a few days ago.
"Yes, after taking the elixir of the eldest princess, I feel comfortable all over my body, but I can't use the strength of this leg and can't stand up." He had a good impression of Su Qingcheng, and he happened to have nothing to do, so he couldn't help but say a few more words to her.
"The slave learned some medical skills when she was a child, and she can check the pulse of the saint."
"Oh? Aren't you the personal palace maid next to the eldest princess, and you can also heal, not bad, so you can show me. ”
The emperor smiled and stretched out his hand, Su Qingcheng first took out a square scarf and covered the emperor's hand, and then stroked his veins.
There is a mystery hidden in the seemingly calm vein.
At the same time, outside the main hall.
The queen slapped the eldest princess in the face and said angrily: "What do you mean! Are you going to rebel against Hongu! ”
"Erchen doesn't dare," the eldest princess's face turned red at once, "Erchen just doesn't want the queen mother to go astray." ”
"Gone astray? You are pregnant and give birth to a child, and this palace helps you raise the child together, and now this palace wants to help your mother and son find a good future, and you say that this palace has gone astray? The queen said excitedly.
She never imagined that one day, the eldest princess, who was obedient to her, would disobey her like this.
As if thinking of her mother, who had taken care of her day and night after being abandoned by that person many years ago, the eldest princess's tone softened: "Queen Mother...... Erchen didn't mean that, Erchen just didn't want to be the princess. ”
"Then think of your son! Except that you yourself have supreme power, who will tolerate the scandal of the princess of the dynasty having children out of wedlock? The queen gritted her teeth.
The eldest princess just wanted to say that the fourth prince already knew about it, but after thinking about it, she still didn't say it.
"Xi'er, the queen mother is all for your good, when did the queen mother lie to you since you were a child," the queen saw that the eldest princess was silent, and persuaded her with good words, "The negative man on the side keeps saying that he loves you, and the queen mother knows at a glance that he is not a good man, and he does not agree with you, but as a result, you left your pregnancy behind." ”
"Queen Mother...... But Erchen really didn't want to be the empress. Princess Celestia was moved by her, and her tone was sincere.
"This is just a temporary plan, you see, when Hao'er grows up, let Hao'er sit in that position, and no one in the entire Dongling will be able to bully him and abandon him." The queen spoke eloquently, and her voice was full of demagogy.
Seeing that the eldest princess was about to be moved, the queen tested her and said: "What do you mean by the fact that the one you said is a three-point poison, did someone tell you something?" ”
"No, Erchen just said it casually." Princess Celestia instantly came to her senses when she heard this.
