Chapter 757: Strict Discipline
Looking at this situation, the queen mother is better than she imagined, she still thinks that a woman who has lost her only son and whose children and grandchildren still die at the hands of her husband will be more extreme, but she didn't expect that as the mother of a country, the queen is really the queen, very comparable.
The queen also looked at Concubine Wei with a light smile, thinking about the intention of the eunuch just now, and suddenly asked, "Concubine Wei, why do you look a little bad?
Concubine Wei was shocked, and hurriedly stood up and replied: "Queen Xie is concerned, the concubine may be a little cold, and it is not a big problem." ”
"That's good. The queen nodded, and said in a gentle voice without hurry: "However, although it is June and the weather is hot, you should not be too greedy, you should rest more, and you must not be careless." ”
"The previous Concubine Yang was originally good, and the emperor was also favored, but she was greedy for a cold, and she couldn't do it when she got sick. ”
"That's what the queen said. Although these words were unlucky, Concubine Wei still showed gratitude and replied respectfully: "The concubine must be careful." ”
The two of them were originally old men in the palace, and it was not that they were completely speechless, but if there were many topics to be said, there would be none.
More than ten years ago, one was the queen and the other was just Wei Guiren, after the queen lost her son and closed the palace door, Concubine Wei was slowly promoted to Wei Concubine, and because of her deep qualifications, she sat on the throne of the concubine.
The disparity in status in the past made Concubine Wei feel a little unconfident now, and she even speculated: "The queen summoned me late at night, is it just to say these painless words?"
Just thinking about it, there was a sudden commotion outside, the palace maids were separated, Concubine Wei suddenly had palpitations, she could hardly control herself, she barely calmed herself, and when she looked, a big eunuch entered it, it was none other than the head eunuch Zhao Gonggong next to the emperor.
Gonggong Zhao saluted the queen first, but he didn't kneel, only said: "The old slave has seen the queen's mother." ”
The queen stared at her, guessed something, and stood up one by one, as the queen, unless it was specially given to her, otherwise, there was no need to kneel, just get up.
Sure enough, Gonggong Zhao turned around and said to Concubine Wei: "Concubine Wei, tell me!"
Concubine Wei's heart jumped, and she actually had a sense of impending a catastrophe, and her face immediately changed greatly, she hurriedly got up, knelt down and bowed: "Concubine Confession!"
Gonggong Zhao not only announced an oracle to her, but also said to the queen who had walked down: "Queen Mother, please also give an edict." ”
"The concubine is an edict. The queen also wanted to bow down, but was stopped by Zhao Gonggong.
"Queen Mother, you don't have to kneel down to say something, this is what the emperor meant. Zhao Gonggong was expressionless, but said in a deep voice, word by word very clearly.
"The emperor has a decree, Concubine Wei is extravagant, and she has a position, the queen should make a decree to cut off Concubine Wei's concubine position, and strictly control it. ”
"Ahh
The queen couldn't help but change color, Concubine Wei didn't say anything else, she has always been cautious This is true, it's been twenty years, who doesn't know?
This is extravagant, too much, where to start?
Of course, acting in the palace, as long as there is a reason, it doesn't matter if it's really or not, Queen Bingxue is smart and immediately understands: "It must be King Lu who has an accident." ”
Seeing that Gonggong Zhao had passed on his will to leave, he hurriedly said, "Father-in-law, please stay!"
Gonggong Zhao hurriedly stopped, bowed down and listened to the queen ask, "It's so late, where are you going?"
Zhao Gonggong said respectfully: "Queen Mother, the old slave has just announced the decree, and I have to go to ask for the official will and go to the Lu Palace." ”
"Go to the Lu Palace, can you sue the palace, what is the reason for this?"
The queen asked, and what she asked was something that everyone would know about immediately, but Gonggong Zhao didn't hide it, and replied directly: "Back to the queen, the emperor has issued an order to cut off the prince of King Lu and abolish him as a concubine." ”
Poof!
"Concubine Wei!"
Not far away, Concubine Wei, who was already holding on, just heard this answer and immediately fainted.
"Cut off the prince of King Lu?"
The queen couldn't help but gasp, since it was so serious, she couldn't ask more.
Although I don't know what the specific thing is, the emperor can directly abolish the position of a concubine, not to mention, but also cut the prince who has become an adult prince.
This is enough to alarm the entire capital and even the world, and its implied sense of implied wind and rain makes the queen even have the illusion of returning to more than ten years ago.
What is that ruthless man going to do again?
This is the queen's first reaction, and the second reaction is, will this matter implicate the acting king?
Seeing that Duke Zhao announced his resignation and left, the queen retracted her thoughts and ordered: "You take a few people and wait for Concubine Wei to go to the side hall to rest." ”
and specially advised: "Although the emperor dictated that Concubine Wei's concubine position was cut, but after all, it was a concubine, and the emperor gave birth to a prince, so he was not allowed to be coldly treated. ”
Below the concubine is the concubine, which not only conforms to the emperor's will, but also shows his benevolence and leniency, as for the emperor, if he is dissatisfied, he can also be beaten down casually, which actually does not cost a few dollars.
"Yes, Queen. The female official immediately responded, and took a few palace maids to set up Concubine Wei, who had not yet woken up, and walked towards the side hall.
Another female official went out and asked the people who came with Concubine Wei to go back to Concubine Wei's residence first and wait for the final fate.
When things were all taken care of, the queen walked back to her seat and sat down.
"What's going on?" she pondered, "Why did the emperor suddenly send Concubine Wei and King Lu down? Could it be that this mother and son have committed the emperor's taboo?"
But except for the tragedy of the former prince more than ten years ago, most of the time, the emperor was quite tolerant and generous to the prince, the princess and the concubine.
Even those concubines who are not favored will not be bullied, and they can have a life of food and clothing.
The adult princes have all been crowned kings, opened mansions, and are as high-profile and arrogant as King Qi, and they have not been killed by the emperor so far, and King Lu is so low-key who doesn't know whether it's true or false, and his life has passed.
There are a few underage princes and princesses, all of whom live with their mothers, although they are not taken seriously, and the grade of the mothers is also low, and the emperor usually can't even think of them easily, but it will not reach the point of dying.
Such an emperor suddenly attacked the adult prince who had been in the palace for several years, and anyone who saw it would feel that Concubine Wei was affected by King Lu.
The queen thought about it for a long time, but she felt that something was wrong.
"Recently, the emperor has actually gradually favored King Lu, and I am worried that it will be unfavorable to the acting king. ”
In fact, she had already noticed that the emperor's attitude towards King Lu had changed, and she knew that even if the acting king came back and was crowned a prince, she was not in the emperor's choice.
The queen was secretly vigilant: "Why is there a sudden thunderstorm? This matter must be investigated and clarified!"
Thinking of this, the queen immediately instructed the big eunuch in front of her: "You go and check, what happened to King Lu, go back and tell me." ”
"The slave obeys. ”
