Empress Yu Concubine Lie Wins Everyday

Chapter 266 The Empress Dowager Died

"Emperor..." Empress Dowager Wuya struggled to support herself on the sickbed.

His filial son, His Majesty Yongzheng, rushed to support her, and stuffed a few soft pillows behind her. Today, Yongzheng seemed very patient, "Mother, my son is here."

Empress Dowager Wu Ya looked at the eldest son who was not young, and felt a little dazed. She raised her hand, as if she wanted to touch the emperor's forehead, but slowly lowered it, her tone was a little sad: "The emperor seems to be born gray hair..."

Yongzheng was silent for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at his gray-haired mother: "Did the Queen find out that her son has gray hair today?"

Shu Jin was standing by the bed at this moment, holding a bowl of medicine in her hand. She should have reminded the Queen Mother to take the medicine, but now...seeing the atmosphere, it would be better for her to pretend to be dumb.

It seems that Yongzheng had gray hair in the year when he took drugs, but he was wearing all kinds of hats, which is not easy to find.

But the mother never found out, which shows how far she has ignored her son.

"Is that so..." Empress Dowager Wu Ya sighed faintly, "Ai Jia only remembers your appearance in the prime of life..." Being in the prime of life is also extremely tough.

Yongzheng's tone was a bit cold: "The Queen's mother was joking, who can always be young and vigorous? I will also grow old."

Empress Dowager Wu Ya also heard that her emperor's son's tone was not kind, but she couldn't help laughing: "The emperor is the son of heaven, and he is blessed by heaven. Unlike the Ai family, he is really old."

Empress Dowager Wu Ya is indeed old, her temples are like frost, the corners of her eyes and brows are full of wrinkles, and her smile is full of desolation.

Yongzheng was silent for a while.

Seeing this, Shu Jin said, "Queen Mother, the medicine is no longer hot."

Yongzheng raised his hand and said, "I am here to serve the Empress Dowager with medicine."

"Yes!" Shu Jin hurriedly handed the medicine bowl to the emperor with both hands.

Yongzheng took the medicine bowl, took a spoonful and put it into his own mouth, "It's true that your mouth is no longer burning, please use the medicine, Queen Mother."

Empress Dowager Wu Ya raised her hand and pushed aside the medicine bowl, but her weak face showed a bit of toughness, "I am sorry for my own body and bones, and I know it well. Today I can hold my body and chat with the emperor, but I think it's just a flashback." .”

Yongzheng frowned, "Don't say such things, Queen Mother, medicine is a good thing, and you will get better after drinking it."

These words seemed to be coaxing a child, but the emperor's tone was cold and stiff, without the slightest coaxing posture.

Shu Jin is speechless, it's this time, why can't you say a few nice words?
"Emperor..." Empress Dowager Wu Ya's eyes softened instantly, "The Ai family knows that you have been complaining about the Ai family all these years."

Yongzheng's old face darkened, as if he guessed what Empress Dowager Wuya wanted to say, he handed the medicine bowl to the noble concubine Geng Shi: "The medicine is a bit cold."

Shu Jin knew that it would be inconvenient for her to hear the next words, so she knelt down and said, "Yes, my concubine will go down and warm up."

Then quickly withdrew from the Queen Mother's inner bedroom.

It was Mi concubine Li Shi who was waiting outside. Seeing the medicine bowl in Shu Jin's hand, she couldn't help being suspicious: "This medicine..."

Shu Jin handed the medicine bowl to the servants below to warm it up, and said, "The empress dowager and the emperor want to talk about the relationship between mother and child."

Concubine Mi glanced at the bead curtain leading to the inner bedroom, the emperor and the queen mother?Where does the mother-child relationship come from?

Let the emperor and the queen mother get along alone, I'm afraid there will be a quarrel...

Concubine Mi glanced around, and then asked in a low voice: "Would it be troublesome for us?"

Shu Jin shrugged her shoulders, saying that people who are about to die speak kindly, and if the queen mother succumbed to the emperor before she died, it would be good for everyone.I'm afraid that the old lady will pierce Yongzheng's heart when she is about to die...

"Just do what we should do." Shu Jin said nonsense.

Concubine Mi nodded thoughtfully.

After a while, Aunt Lan Ruo walked in with a hot medicine in her hand, "Mother, the medicine is ready." She glanced at the inner bedroom.

Shu Jin could only say: "It's too hot, let's wait a while."

At this time, the idiot went in.

"Yes." Aunt Lan Ruo hurriedly placed the medicine bowl on the crescent table beside her, and then silently stood by Shu Jin's side.

Shu Jin silently stared at the western pendulum clock at the side. Only a mere quarter of an hour had passed before he heard a "clang" sound coming from the inner bedroom, and he didn't know what was broken.

Immediately, Yongzheng came out of it with a face of raging anger.

Shu Jin and Mi concubine hurriedly bowed to salute.

Yongzheng seemed to be full of anger, but he had nowhere to vent it. He glanced coldly at the people outside, and then said in a low voice, "The empress dowager is dead."

Without saying a word, Shu Jin and Concubine Mi hurriedly knelt down, and the palace people also knelt down on the ground.

Shu Jin leaned over and said, "The Emperor's condolences!"

Yongzheng took a deep breath, "Grand Concubine, I would like to serve the Empress Dowager to change clothes." After saying these words, Yongzheng strode away.

Shu Jin and Concubine Mi looked at each other, got up hurriedly and ran into the Queen Mother's inner chamber, as expected, the Queen Mother had passed away, but her eyes were wide open, and an angry expression was still maintained on her face.

It can be seen that before the death, the mother and son broke up unhappy.

Thinking about it with your toes, when she was about to die, the queen mother still wanted to kidnap the emperor morally, and wanted the emperor to let her youngest son go.

It's a pity that Yongzheng is a master who takes soft things rather than tough ones, he would rather keep his mother alive than fulfill her wish.

What kind of temperament is your son, don't you know?
Shu Jin sighed, and hastily ordered the palace servants to bring the empress dowager's court dress crown, and together with concubine Mi, put on the luxurious and cumbersome court dress layer by layer before the queen mother's body became stiff.There was also that old face that could not rest in peace, Shu Jin had to rub it manually, help her close her eyes, and then squeezed out a serene smile.

Concubine Mi saw it, and couldn't help being stunned: Is the imperial concubine not afraid at all?
"What are you looking at me for? Bring makeup and powder." The complexion of a person who died of illness is very ugly, and it is necessary to put on makeup.

"Yes!" Concubine Mi only felt her scalp go numb.

When Concubine Mao and other concubines arrived after hearing the news, Concubine Shu Jin and Concubine Mi had already cleaned up the old lady's remains quite well.

The luxurious court dress and crown set off the nobleness of the empress dowager, and the red rouge made the empress dowager's face not only not haggard, but gentle and kind.Empress Dowager Wu Ya was lying upright on the brocade couch, and the maid was covering her body with a brocade quilt embroidered with Buddhist scriptures.

Death is such a luxury.

Shu Jin let out a breath slowly, she felt that she seemed to have the potential to be an embalmer.Look at the face of the queen mother, how well it has been transformed, as if she is still alive!

So he led all the people to kowtow in front of Empress Dowager Wuya's body, and then said to Concubine Mao and Concubine Mi: "You stay here and I will go and ask the emperor about the funeral ceremony."

This is a national funeral, how to arrange it depends on the emperor.Shu Jin felt that it was probably time to ask the county king, who specializes in funerals, again.

Concubine Mao nodded, "The empress dowager went away peacefully."

Shu Jin: ...

Concubine Mi: ...

Concubine Mao:? ? ?Did I say something wrong? ?
