Chapter 289 Filial Piety?

There is no doubt that Chunjia is unwilling to believe this result.

Because even if you don't mention the mother-child relationship that has depended on each other for decades, just talk about benefits, he is the protection of the noble concubine, why not the protection of the Queen Mother Yuan?

Even if Empress Dowager Yuan is far away in Fuyang County, but Chunjia will be in one day, who would dare to treat her as an ordinary elder of the clan?

Even the current King of Fuyang, who has never been raised and cared for by Queen Mother Yuan, must be more respectful to her and serve her more attentively than his own mother.

After all, Gongxiang Ruoheng's mother may not complain about her son's negligence, but the Queen Mother Yuan may not be willing to tolerate Gongxiang Ruoheng.

But Chunjia couldn't believe it, but she vaguely understood in her heart that unlike the imperial concubine, the Empress Dowager Yuan did have a reason to destroy him...

Empress Dowager Yuan is different from the noble concubine. She is Chunjia's former aunt and adoptive mother. Because she has nothing to do, she has to adopt the concubine's concubine. Since it is the joy of the family, why not the rewards for the effort?

But now?

The Empress Dowager herself, no matter how high-sounding the reason, could not conceal that she returned to her hometown sadly after living in the Imperial Palace for more than ten years.

As for the mother's family, let alone.

The three nieces and daughters who served Chunjia were carefully selected, two died young, and one fell out of favor for many years.

If Empress Dowager Yuan had a choice, would she still support Chunjia as the emperor?

After all, if Chunjia didn't become the emperor, but just the king of Fuyang, Chunjia dared not listen to her, and once she sued the court, someone would naturally punish the unfilial king.

But now Chunjia is the emperor, the Ninth Five Supreme.

Who can do anything to him?

He talks about filial piety, but in private, he does everything he can to make the empress dowager feel like a stick in his throat... What can the empress dowager do? Not only can she do nothing, she can't even lose her temper!

Because there is Concubine Min in the harem, who tries to provoke the relationship between mother and child.

If she becomes willful and reckless, she will give Yun Fenghuang a chance.

Such a life, even with the title of empress dowager, is it okay?

Chunjia judged from a fair standpoint, and had to admit that it should not be counted.

Empress Dowager Yuan herself was born in the famous Yuan family in Fuyang County. Although the Yuan family is only a prominent family in the county, there is a gap with the Yin family and the Meng family, which are famous all over the country. big.

After entering the Fuyang Palace to be a princess, even if she is not loved by the concubine, she is the mistress of the palace. After the concubine leaves, the entire lineage of the prince of Fuyang will be decided by her...

This empress dowager, before becoming empress dowager, actually had nothing lacking... In contrast, she now has the status of empress dowager, but she has lost more...

Frustrated, it is not unreasonable to simply ignore Chunjia's revenge.

After all, she has already gone back to Fuyang County, and at this age, she has no biological flesh and blood, and even her natal family is gone. Even if something happens to Chunjia, at most she will be deprived of the title of Queen Mother, and it is impossible to chase after Fuyang County What about her?

Even if someone really got to this level of liquidation, the Queen Mother Yuan is already at this age, does she still need to care?

"Mother..." The emperor suddenly burst into tears. Regardless of the presence of attendants in the palace, he put his hands on his forehead, weeping, and whispered, "Really...really...is that you?"

He still didn't want to believe it.

Even looking back at the past twenty years of experience, there are actually many grievances between mother and child that they cannot or are unwilling to express.

For example, the Empress Dowager Yuan’s maintenance and love for Yuan Niangniang, for example, the Empress Dowager always thinks about her natal family immediately when his situation improves slightly, and for example... But no matter what, Chunjia really thinks that the Queen Mother Yuan is closer to the Queen Mother Qu .

As soon as he landed, he was carried to the Empress Dowager Yuan. Even if the Empress Dowager Yuan treated him well because she had no children, she had truly been his mother for these years.

In Chunjia's mind, if there is anyone in this world who is determined not to harm him...it must be Queen Mother Yuan.

Even the imperial concubine Yun Fenghuang, when the emperor was calm, felt that the imperial concubine would not betray him in a short time, but if it was for the sake of King Jin, then it was really not necessarily true.

But also because Yun Fenghuang attached great importance to King Jin, he felt that the Empress Dowager Yuan, who is not her own mother but better than her own mother, would not harm him.

Yes, even if the Eighth Prince's life experience was doubted by the court and harem, Chunjia also felt that the Empress Dowager might confuse blood, intervene in the battle for the crown prince, and target concubines for the sake of Yuan's consideration...but it would definitely not be detrimental to him.

It's not doing the queen any favors.

Besides, how could the Empress Dowager Yuan be willing?

but now……

Chunjia was a little dazed.

He even wanted to send someone to find the deputy who had just been sent away, so that the Imperial City Secretary would stop investigating.

Sun Yu couldn't afford this result, and he...he couldn't accept it either.

Don't check, without conclusive evidence, Chunjia can still deceive himself and think that maybe Sun Yu made a mistake. Perhaps Sun Yu was murdered for other reasons. Maybe Sun Yu found out about other important matters, but he didn't have time to report...

Anyway, he can deny things that have not been implemented.

Queen Mother Yuan never harmed him.

He is her only child!

Even if it's not her own, but the queen mother has nothing to do, she has raised him for so many years, how can she bear it? ? ?

After Chunjia roared in her heart, she couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Have the heart...?

What about him? Didn't he only regard the Empress Dowager Yuan as his own mother, but he also sat and watched the imperial concubine, the empress, and other concubines, step by step, bit by bit, piece by piece, forcing the empress dowager to trek back thousands of miles regardless of her age Fuyang County?

Knowing that the Empress Dowager is getting old, this trip has been a long journey. Not only was the journey hard, but most importantly, when they left Fuyang County, even though they were full of hesitation, the scene was glorious anyway.

Because he came to the imperial capital to be the emperor and queen mother.

Who is not envious?

Now the two empress dowagers are going back in a phoenix chariot, no matter how big the battle is, no matter how good their manners are, they will inevitably fall into the mouth after all.

He knew all these things, but he still didn't really make any effort to keep the Queen Mother Yuan. Maybe the Queen Mother's heart became colder and hardened little by little under the eyes of all kinds of people on the way back?

Chunjia propped her forehead, and sobbed for a long time in the dead silence where the waiters were so terrified that they held their breath and stared at their hearts, and finally ordered in a hoarse voice: "Go to the one-person Imperial City Secretary and urge them to do things as soon as possible!"

Although very reluctant.

but……

Chunjia still felt that the truth of the investigation would be revealed.

If it is found out that it is not the Queen Mother Yuan, that is of course the best; if it is, he does not intend to do anything to the Queen Mother Yuan, so he will act as if nothing happened, but in the future, he must take precautions... After all, he cannot die.

This is not only for the Empress Dowager Yuan and the noble concubine, but also for the Gongxiang family and the world.

The eldest son, King Qin, is only six years old, and the two legitimate sons are even younger, especially the tenth prince, who is still struggling with smallpox.

In this case, if the emperor made a mistake, the country would definitely be in turmoil in an instant.

As for the nephew and uncle Wei He, who are still splitting up, they might not be able to unite immediately and join forces to go south, riding on the great rivers and mountains of the Central Plains...

Therefore, even for the sake of the overall situation, Chunjia can't have an accident now.

The servants agreed to go down to deliver the order, but the emperor stopped one of them and asked, "I... am you filial?"

"...Your Majesty is naturally..." The servant was startled, and subconsciously bowed to answer, but just opened his mouth, Chunjia waved his hand with a wry smile, and dismissed him.

Yes, this is a close servant, how could it be said that he is not filial?

Not to mention that he has always done well on the scene, even if he is not, how many people have dared to say that the emperor is not right in front of the emperor?

... Yun Fenghuang from the harem didn't know Chunjia's inner torment. When she heard the news of Sun Yu's sudden death, she was very surprised: "Is the Imperial City Secretary so incompetent now? Even the envoy died in his own mansion Is it unclear?!"

Chen Jing smiled wryly and said: "Isn't it? And you don't know, Madam, it's really hard to talk about it now, because the people in Mrs. Sun's house said that the visiting guests seemed to be talking and behaving from... They came from the north! What do you mean by that? Just now, Uncle Zhao Wu, who just came back, hastily rushed to the gate of the palace to call for grievances before he even washed himself up!"

Yun Fenghuang frowned: "He is nimble, but it may not be because of him. After all, Sun Yu can be the envoy of the imperial city, how can he not have two brushes? Since he has been very nervous these two days, originally You won't meet strangers casually, let alone be poisoned by strangers suddenly!"

"Your Majesty is right." Chen Jing said, "Now there are so many things out there, it's a mess. They're all waiting for His Majesty's holy judgment... Over at Yanfu Palace, it's said that the Empress vomited blood."

With a low voice, "Niang Niang, do we need to add fire to the middle palace?"

"When it's such a mess, let's forget it." Yun Fenghuang shook his head and said, "The middle palace is getting worse and worse these days, I see, even if the third and tenth princes are fine, the queen may be seriously ill. At this time, add fuel and jealousy to her." , other times people can't slow down, this eye contact, wouldn't it be a great help to Gu Shi?"

No matter how unfavorable the empress of the main palace is, it is also recognized that the existence of the mother Yi Tianxia.

If it was because of overwork to take care of the sick prince and died, then the government and the opposition must be very sympathetic.

When the time comes, she will comfort Gu's family with emotion and reason.

From Yun Fenghuang's point of view, if the Gu family doesn't collapse, killing Gu Zhen doesn't mean much.

Because Mrs. Gu can send another daughter in to sit on the phoenix seat anytime and anywhere.

At the beginning, Chunjia fell in love with the Gu family, so Queen Gu was born, but it was not because of the establishment of Queen Gu, that the descendants of the Gu family came into existence.

Thinking of this, the imperial concubine felt uneasy.

But this is something that can't be helped, and it's useless to care about it. After calming down for a while, Yun Fenghuang asked about King Jin's situation: "How is my son now?"

"...Young lady, please rest assured, Your Highness is blooming now, and everything is fine." Chen Jing paused before saying, "Because His Highness is young and delicate, the Qing people find that His Highness is trying to struggle, and they can easily hold him down, so After His Highness recovers, there should be no scars."

Yun Fenghuang breathed a sigh of relief.
