Chapter 401 An Accident in the Palace
Yun Fenghuang didn't care about the queen's anger and sadness, the reason why she refused to take over the sixth prince was actually similar to the queen.
Think about it, King Qin and Zhaoqing have grown up gradually, the eldest son of the emperor who is not well-qualified can't show his true qualities to please the emperor. When it comes to personality, all of them are loved by the emperor, but the jealous temperament, without Yun Fenghuang's help to cover up and mediate, will be rejected by Chunjia sooner or later.
Even if Chunjia didn't hate the eldest daughter in her heart, as long as someone instigates it, Zhaoqing's current city will be cheated to death every minute without knowing who did it.
Next, the Seventh Prince's talent is not bad, but he is someone else's child after all.
No matter how attached he is to Yun Fenghuang now, who can guarantee that he won't be coaxed by Yin Qu when he grows up? After all, Yin Qu really had nothing to say to him, and he absolutely did his best.
And if the Seventh Prince is older, Yin Qu will definitely tell him that the reason why his adoptive mother Yun Fenghuang has been kind to him all these years is because Yin Qu was driven by Xuanqing Palace, Yun Fenghuang is not simply being kind to him at all!
At that time, even if the child doesn't turn against Yun Fenghuang immediately, there will still be some estrangement left.
In short, Yun Fenghuang didn't plan to cultivate the Seventh Prince too much, of course, he still had to do some extravagance, otherwise Yin Qu would not agree.
The following nine princes, before Yun Fenghuang confirms that the fifteen princes are talented and intelligent and can grow up peacefully, they must also be raised as their own sons.
Otherwise, what if she wins in the future, but she doesn't have a suitable son to inherit the throne?
Just dealing with the emperor for King Qin and Zhaoqing and teaching the nine princes and the fifteen princes well is enough for Yun Fenghuang to separate himself - he is exhausted.
Not to mention that even if she doesn't pay much attention to the Second and Ninth Princesses, she still remembers the children under her own name, especially at the age of the Second Princess. In the future, her marriage can win over families for her.
...The value of the sixth prince is limited, how could she accept it?
The most important thing is that the sixth prince still has some connection with Xuanqing Palace: his biological mother, like the second emperor's daughter's biological mother, was once a concubine of Xuanqing Palace.
The second imperial daughter's biological mother, Mrs. Liang, died of dystocia after giving birth to a child. Even if it was a bit dark, at least she passed away with dignity.
But the sixth prince...
But this one was ordered by Queen Mother Yuan to have a son cut out by caesarean section!
Only based on this point, that is, he is still young, Yun Fenghuang let him live in front of her for a few days.
If this child grows up and hears the process here, who knows what he will think and do.
Anyway, Yun Fenghuang is busy enough, but he is not in the mood to always be on guard against the prince, so it is better to send it out.
The next day when I heard that the Empress had settled the six princes in the side hall of Yanfu Palace, Yun Fenghuang just smiled: "The Empress said she was too busy, really too busy, how did the King of Chu come all these years?"
The empress and concubine's dispute was also reported to Chunjia's side. He heard that it had subsided, so he decided to ignore it.
Because the emperor himself doesn't care about the settlement of the sixth prince, anyone can take care of him.
It's better for the concubine to solve it by herself than to make trouble with him.
At this time, New Year's Eve was just around the corner, and no matter whether it was the empress or the noble concubine, including the concubine De, they were already familiar with organizing palace banquets.
It's just that this year, under the advice of several newcomers, a lot of tricks have been added.
The main reason is that the young Jieyu have been competing with each other for a long time, and they want to take advantage of the situation to overwhelm their opponents.
The empress, imperial concubine, and concubine de were all happy to watch them fight, so they readily agreed.
However, the means of fighting for favor prepared by the newcomers Xingxingtou came to an end not long after the New Year's Eve banquet.
Because the Secretary of the Imperial City came to report in the wind and snow, the truth is that the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, suddenly fell into a coma in the palace, suspected of being poisoned!
Chunjia didn't hesitate at all, she just got up and left the table!
"..." The empress concubine and courtiers who were left behind looked at each other for a moment, Yun Fenghuang gave the empress a wink, the empress finally came to her senses, stood up, dragged her skirts to chase the emperor, "I will go and see!"
Yun Fenghuang also stood up, quickly glanced at the scene, and ordered Cui Lianye: "Concubine Shu, look here."
Cui Lianye has been very calm after sitting on the bench for the past two years, and besides, she also knows that she does not please the emperor, even if she tries to show her concern by force, there will be no good fruit to eat, she might as well stay in the seat and take care of the second prince, so He agreed without hesitation.
After the empress and concubine left in a hurry, Lord Yi and other important officials also got up quickly to follow.
A group of people chased to the side hall, without Chunjia cloaks on inside, and were frowning as they listened to the details of the ins and outs from the Imperial City Secretary: "...the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, violated the phoenix body on the way. The imperial doctor saw it and said it was depression Afterwards... the medicine was prescribed. The first few times it was alright, but then I developed a rash. The imperial physician changed the prescription several times, and finally after the local Li Shu heard the news, he presented a prescription, which was said to be effective. After the imperial physician asked the palace people to try it I didn’t find any problems, so I offered it to the loving mother Empress Dowager, and the loving mother Empress Dowager agreed, so I changed the earthwork.”
The effect of this earthen prescription is really good, even after the Empress Dowager Yuan took it, her body and bones improved, and even her complexion improved a lot.
So the Xinggong rewarded the person who provided the earthwork heavily, and let the queen mother eat it all the time.
Then just a few days ago, the Empress Dowager began to dizzy, vomit, and even had bleeding from the seven orifices for no reason... This kind of situation would make people feel flustered, let alone a dignified Empress Dowager?
Xinggong was so frightened that he hurriedly searched Hegong overnight.
In the end, it was discovered that the medicinal materials in the earth recipe had a kind of herb known only to the locals, but it had been replaced with a similar-looking poisonous weed!
Because the growth process of the two is very similar, it is almost the same after being made into medicinal materials.
The imperial doctor failed to identify it, so that the Queen Mother is now deeply poisoned... The people in the Imperial City Department dare not say it clearly, but the implication is that the Queen Mother Yuan may not be able to survive this test.
After Chunjia heard this, she didn't speak for a long time, and the envoy of Huangcheng Division was silent.
Not only him, but all the concubines and courtiers who came after him could also feel the almost substantive tyranny and guilt on the emperor at this moment.
Gu Zhen pulled off Yun Fenghuang's sleeve quietly, but Yun Fenghuang not only didn't respond, but lowered his head even more. The empress and concubine scolded the other party in their hearts for being an asshole, when, who stepped forward at this moment, didn't they offend the emperor?
The Empress Dowager...
Perhaps in the face of power, Chunjia was already ready to give up his adoptive mother, but just as he did not try to keep the Queen Mother Yuan at all costs, the grief and sadness he felt when he bid farewell to the Queen Mother Yuan was real.
The Son of Heaven is sensible, but not without emotion.
But at this moment, I also know that the emperor, who has been busy for a year and is about to relax, is at the peak of emotional brewing after being warned by the bereavement head-on. Maybe he still has clarity in his heart, but he is currently , obviously the feelings for Queen Mother Yuan overwhelmed the others.
Now even Yun Fenghuang dare not speak rashly.
"Come on, prepare the horse." Chunjia was expressionless for a moment, then suddenly said, "I'm going to the palace...to see the loving mother, the Empress Dowager!"
"Your Majesty!" Everyone was shocked when they heard this!
"Your Majesty, no!" At this time, they could see the benefits of Duke Yi's presence, and the others were still considering whether to persuade them with the emperor's anger, or... wait for their colleagues to speak?
Yun Zhao took the lead and cupped his hands and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty is the lord of ten thousand chariots, how can you leave Miyagi lightly?! Moreover, I'm sorry to say that although Your Majesty is a hero with a dragon and a phoenix, he is not a master of Xinglin. Even if you go there yourself If you leave the palace, will you be able to save the loving mother, the Empress Dowager?"
Everyone applauded Yun Zhao in their hearts.
This is a true minister.
Those who have a little bit of courtier skills are not so straightforward.
This is actually the truth, but with the current mood of the emperor, can you say that?
Sure enough, as soon as Yunzhao finished speaking, Chunjia suddenly became furious. He grabbed Yu Ruyi and threw it at him, shouting sharply: "There are very few people in the world who can rejuvenate. According to the words of this farmer, isn't it true that everyone has heard about it?" You don’t even need to visit after a long couch?!”
"I don't dare!" Yun Zhao didn't hide, the emperor lost his sense of control in a panic, Yu Ruyi directly smashed his forehead, blood slowly flowed down his face, but he didn't blink, just lifted his robe and knelt down, Shen Sheng said, "But the people of the world are the people of the world, and your majesty is your majesty! If the empress dowager is in the palace, or even in the imperial capital, and your majesty wants to visit in person, I have nothing to say! But now the empress dowager The Empress Dowager is thousands of miles away, with such a precious status as Your Majesty, how can you go there rashly?"
"Did Your Majesty forget? In the summer of the seventh year of Chunjia, the Empress Dowager was seriously ill in the Qishan Palace. After you received the news, pack lightly and go from Wannian County!"
"It's not a long journey between the two places, but if you meet an assassin on the way, you'll survive from death!"
"Now the palace is more than a thousand miles away from the imperial capital!"
"Your Majesty, please think twice, don't tell Chunjia to repeat the past seven years!"
At this point, Yun Zhao hesitated for a while, gritted his teeth, and added, "Your Majesty is saying something to your heart's content. The country can be without a loving mother, the Empress Dowager, but it cannot be without Your Majesty!"
These words are really heart-breaking. Originally seeing the old minister's injury, the emperor's eyes were already a little annoyed.
Hearing this, his eyes instantly turned cold!
"Your Majesty!" Seeing that the situation was not good, others rushed to save the scene. Ouyang Yanran took the lead and knelt down, stepped forward on her knees, and said in a mournful voice, "Your Majesty, calm down! Duke Yi is loyal and has no other intentions!"
"Please calm down, Your Majesty." Several other important officials who came with them also knelt down, "Although what Duke Yi said is Meng Lang, His Majesty knows that the palace is far away. Great hands from the Imperial Hospital, go all out to save the empress dowager!"
Seeing this, the queen also quickly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down... I beg your majesty to put your body first!"
The queen knelt, and Yun Fenghuang could only kneel, but didn't speak.
Chunjia stood on the altar, looked at the concubines and courtiers who were kneeling on the ground, there was no movement in his eyes, and he asked Yanyin in a slow voice: "Why don't you go soon?!"
Yan Yin looked at the people under Dan Chi in embarrassment, but when the emperor glanced at them coldly, he was shocked: "Your servant obeys!"
"I know that you are all thinking of me." Chunjia did not continue to get angry at this time, he took two steps back, sat down slowly, and said in a deep voice, "Or, it is all for the sake of the overall situation... But don't you forget that although I am the Son of Heaven, I am also the Son of Man! If it were you, at this moment, if you don't come to the palace in person, can you rest assured?!"
