Chapter 125: Loulan Palace Changes (2)
"Father, don't say that, the children know that they can understand your helplessness, you will get better, and we all hope that you will get better. Nalan Qidi said quietly with a crying voice.
"My father is reluctant to let you go, but my body knows best, and there is not much time left, the edict has already been prepared, in the left and right prime ministers, as long as I die, they will read the edict, my father pinned his hopes on you, you must carry forward Loulan well, otherwise your father and emperor Jiuquan will be ashamed of the ancestors. The old emperor told his son.
Although this son is cynical on the surface, he knows that this son Wen Taowu is a first-class person, although he is not as eloquent as other sons, but he is still very filial.
"Qian'er, you must do your best to assist your brother and let Loulan flourish, if there is a chance, my father hopes that Loulan's territory will become wider and wider, not limited to the current Western Regions. The Emperor spat out his wish with his eyes half-open.
"Father's wishes, son-in-law has written down, son-in-law must remember his father's teachings, expand the territory of our Loulan Empire to the Central Plains, son-in-law wants to make Dajin, Moguo and the Western Regions all submit to our Loulan, you can rest assured. Nalan Qidi gritted his teeth and said with the greatest determination.
To be able to dominate the world is a dream that the emperors of the four countries are doing, because his father is old, this ideal can only be delivered to him, of course, he also hopes to look at the world, so that the four countries all belong to the territory of Loulan, he wants to be the king of the world, he wants to make everyone submit to his feet. At that time, he was not afraid that the promise would not belong to him.
"Well, my father believes in you, you two have always been the sons and daughters of your father's pride, and they are not as capable as you, and they are not as far-sighted as you. Emperor Loulan was relieved, it was indeed his merit to have such a child.
"Father, do you want to drink water, and I'll pour you a cup of tea?" Nalan Qidi hurriedly stood up and went to pour tea.
"Di'er, no need, my father is tired and wants to rest, you go down first, Qian'er, you stay for a while. The old emperor waved his hand, very weakly and authentically.
"Okay, father, then you can rest well, and the retainers will come to see you later. Nalan Qiqi responded, leaving only Nalan Qianqian to chat with her father inside.
After a while, the brother and sister walked out of the emperor's dormitory with a melancholy face.
I saw the concubines gathered at the door, and they were all whispering something, but when they saw the Nalan Qidi brothers and sisters coming out, they all immediately closed their mouths.
"The eldest prince, is the emperor better?" At this time, Concubine Li, who was dressed enchantingly and pretty, twisted the waist of the water snake and greeted her.
"Well, my father is resting, let our brothers and sisters come out first. Nalan Qidi said lightly.
"That's good, I'll go in and take a look, if the emperor sleeps, I'll come out immediately." Concubine Li didn't listen to Nalan Qi's words, and walked in on her own.
"Ah, the emperor, come quickly, the emperor is afraid that he will not be able to!" As soon as he entered, he heard a deafening cry from Concubine Li.
Everyone rushed in, only to see Concubine Li hugging the emperor and crying bitterly.
"Your Majesty, wake up quickly, you must not leave our orphans and widows behind!"
"Your Majesty, why are you like this for a while when you were so good?" At this time, Concubine Xiao also pounced, crying with words.
"Don't howl, Father, he's fine now, what are you crying about!" Nalan Qidi shouted angrily, so frightened that the two of them suddenly stopped crying.
The two of them looked at the old emperor suspiciously, his weak appearance and breathing were no different from those who wanted to return to the west, could it be that there was something wrong with their eyes. Or Nalan Qidi's eyes have a problem.
"Nalan Qidi, you don't respect your elders, how can we say that we are also your elders, how can we allow you to shout here, and the emperor is obviously not optimistic, but you don't let us vent the sour feelings in our hearts, what is your intention?" Concubine Xiao raised her phoenix eyes, and there was something in her words.
"Hehe, I don't have respect for the elders, do you have the emperor in your eyes? I'm afraid everyone knows what you think in your heart, right? The emperor was originally in good health, and my sister and I just left the palace for a few days, and we became like this, what do you say you have done?" Nalan Qidi glanced at Concubine Xiao and Concubine Li, and asked with a gloomy expression.
"Your Majesty, you are wronged, you wake up quickly, look at your good son, he actually spewed blood and said that we have harmed you, our loyalty to the emperor can be seen by the sun and the moon, he actually slandered us, we are not alive. Concubine Li also cried when she saw it.
They want to recruit everyone and let the big guy see how insidious such a prince is, not only harming his father, but also bullying his father's woman, so that he will betray his relatives and see who else can stand on his side.
Nalan Qianqian, who was watching the excitement on the side, couldn't help sneering, these women are really restless, this father has not passed, they have taken action, they are really in a hurry not too late, if it weren't for the discussion with the father and the emperor when he and his brother went in just now, I am afraid that at this time, a basin of dirty water will be splashed down, and it will not be washed by jumping into the Yellow River.
"Father, don't sleep, wake up quickly, you sleep for a while, I'm afraid that this Jinluan Palace will be washed away by this tears, so my brother and he may also be washed away, you hurry up and take a look, your favorite concubines really have all kinds of tricks." Nalan Qianqian said disdainfully.
"You, what nonsense are you talking about, what kind of tricks have we played, you went in and the emperor was unconscious, are you still reasonable?" Concubine Xiao was fierce, her face was full of schadenfreude, and she blamed unrelentingly.
"We are not as good as the beasts you say, people are watching the sky, I believe that God's eyes are the brightest, and we should know the good and the bad. Nalan Qianqian glanced at the two favorite concubines with disdain, and there was something authentic in her words.
"You, what are you talking about, you are a wild girl raised outside the palace and dare to talk to us in this tone, I think you are really undisciplined!" Concubine Li stood up angrily, her willow eyebrows were upside down, and she was going to slap Nalan Qianqian's face when she did something.
Nalan Qianqian's movements were very fast, and before her handwheel came down, Concubine Li's wrist had been held by Nalan Qianqian.
Nalan Qianqian glared at Concubine Li contemptuously, and said disdainfully: "Use your hands and brains before doing things next time, don't do this kind of self-conscious thing, otherwise people will laugh at it." ”
Although Nalan Qianqian is not a master, she can do a little bit of three-legged cat kung fu, but it is indeed more than enough to deal with these women who only know how to compete for the wind and be jealous.
"You, you dare to bully the head of this palace, you, you are so bold!" Concubine Li pointed at Nalan Qianqian's nose with her other hand and shouted sharply.
"You are also worthy of calling yourself the palace in front of this princess, you seem to have forgotten that the queen mother of this princess is the original match of the father, you say that it sounds good to be a concubine, and it is a little concubine when you say that it is cheesy, how can it be compared with my mother, and only my mother is qualified to sleep in the same cave with my father after a hundred years. Nalan Qianqian's words are sharp, like a sharp knife poking the hearts of the two, what they hate the most is that they are so favored that they can't compare to a dead ghost, they tried all kinds of means, but they couldn't climb the queen's throne, this emperor would rather the queen's position be vacant than the queen, which made them feel very unhappy.
"You, you are talking nonsense, we are the emperor's favorite, your mother is just an outdated woman, and we are the most important thing in the emperor's heart now. Concubine Xiao took the lead and pointed at Nalan Qianqian for a reason.
"Haha, it's funny, there is only one of the best since ancient times, which of you two is more important?" Nalan Qianqian looked at the two like clowns, and felt that she understood for a while why her father favored them, haha, because she was big-chested and brainless, such a woman was easy to deal with, she didn't have to bother to deal with them, and she didn't make enemies for her children, because their IQ was not worthy of being the enemies of their brothers and sisters.
"You, you don't sow discord there, Sister Xiao and I are the emperor's favorites, and we are willing to serve the emperor together, we will not deviate from morality because of your words. Concubine Li retorted angrily.
Obviously, this Concubine Li has a little more brains than that Concubine Xiao, no wonder Concubine Xiao is more favored than her, I am afraid that she will not understand why she is favored until she dies, why is Concubine Xiao more favored than her, right?
Nalan Qianqian looked at the two pathetic women in front of her with a smile, they had been calculating for several years, but they didn't expect to calculate and still hadn't calculated the old man they thought they loved the most.
"That is, the friendship between us can not be destroyed by her words, and when the emperor wakes up, we have to say it. The two sang and harmonized, but in their opinion, this time the old emperor may really travel west.
"What are you arguing about here, I was so noisy that I was woken up by you if I wanted to sleep well, and I haven't gone yet, what kind of system are you crying wolf howling, do you just want me to die with a glaring of my legs? "Although the old emperor is a little weak, his words still make people feel powerful. The two favorite concubines lowered their heads and stopped talking, and their hearts were even more foggy, just looking at him, but there was no life at all, otherwise they would not be acting here.
Otherwise, how to explain this, when they remembered what they had just said, both of them couldn't help but regret it, they knew that the queen's position in the emperor's heart was as stable as Mount Tai, and they had just slandered the queen's words, I am afraid that the emperor had also eavesdropped, if they knew that the emperor was lying there, and borrowed a few of their courage, they would not dare to do so.
In this way, the good image of the virtuous and gentle people pretended to be in the past has come to naught. Thinking about it, the intestines are going to regret at this time, but there is no regret medicine in this world, they can only stiffen their heads, and can only pray silently, the old emperor didn't hear what they just said, otherwise they are really worried.
"Go down, all of you, and don't let me hear these words that I shouldn't say again, and don't let me see your ugly side. Let's go!" The old emperor sent everyone away with a look of disgust.
He finally saw the true face of the so-called most favored woman, all they care about is his position of power, they all know how to plan ahead, and he is still alive and estimated, and they have already planned for the aftermath, haha, people's lives are like this, extremely ironic.
If I hadn't listened to my daughter's advice on a whim, I am afraid that I would not have believed what my daughter said when I closed my eyes.
