Fengqi crabapple

Chapter 300
The Queen Mother was ill, so the Emperor naturally wanted to visit her.The Empress Dowager has not caused any trouble to the Empress for many years, she just eats fast and recites scriptures in the palace.Seeing that he was getting older, he became more and more timid and afraid of death.

"Mother, why have you become so haggard after I haven't seen you for a few days? Has the imperial doctor come to see you?" The emperor was shocked when he saw the expression on the Queen Mother's face. It turned out that the Queen Mother was really ill.

The Queen Mother waved to the Emperor and asked him to sit down by the bed.She took the emperor's hand and said: "Emperor, the Ai family can no longer live in the palace. You have people send the Ai family to Wu Nian Temple. The Ai family wants to live there..."

The emperor did not expect that the Queen Mother would say such a thing, and was surprised: "Why did the Queen Mother say this? Is it because the son did something bad? You said, the son can change it."

What the Heavenly Dynasty said is that filial piety is the first thing to do. If you don't take your mother with you to take care of her, but send her to a nunnery, it will make people in the world laugh at her.How could the emperor be willing to do it?

"Emperor, the Ai family knows that you are sincere. With Cheng Haitang in your heart, you cannot pretend to be someone else. But she is not an ordinary person. If she is by your side, I am afraid that she will harm you!"

Cheng Haitang?Why does the mother call the queen by her first and last name like this?

"Queen Mother, what misunderstood you about Haitang? She is very good to her son. She would not harm her son. On the contrary, she has saved his life over and over again..." The emperor was worried that what happened yesterday had misunderstood his mother, so he explained :
"My son misunderstood Haitang yesterday. That book was not given to Yunqi by Haitang, but by himself..."

The Queen Mother interrupted: "Since the emperor mentioned that book, the Ai family is not afraid to tell you. The Ai family sent people to check the origin of that book... Yunqi died because of it. In the future, I'm afraid someone else will die because of it. He died! The Ai family knows that you will not agree to your advice to give up Cheng Haitang, so the Ai family can only retreat from the palace and seek forgiveness from their ancestors."

Only then did the emperor understand that the queen mother was forcing herself to leave the palace...to give up Haitang!Abandoned?Or kill her?

The emperor stood up slowly, turned his back to the queen mother, and whispered: "Begonia has not done anything worthy of deposing the queen, so my son cannot accept her order."

"One child has already died. Isn't that enough? Because of her, the emperor only has three children. How many more times can you withstand God's response? The emperor is not young anymore and will soon reach the age of forty. She is After saving you, you don’t have to risk the entire Xie family to repay her!”

For many years, the Empress Dowager has always been bitter about the emperor's failure to accept concubines, and the emperor's heirs are weak. Once there is some disturbance, she will be in front of the late emperor, and she will have no face to speak for herself.Of course, this account must also be settled on Queen Cheng Haitang's head.

The emperor stopped talking and just walked slowly towards the door.I heard the Queen Mother's voice coming from behind me: "If the emperor leaves this door today, the friendship between us as mother and son will be severed."

The Queen Mother knew that forcing the emperor to submit was the last resort, but she was really afraid. If the theory of retribution was true, she would only use this method to make the emperor leave that woman.

The emperor was stunned. As expected, he didn't leave anymore. He still didn't look back. He asked dullly: "Mother... what do you want me to do?"

The Queen Mother secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Aijia is not an unkind person. After all, she is still the mother of Yunjuan and Yunxuan. All you need to do is send her to Wu Nian Nunnery and let her pray for the country there. Recite the scriptures for Yun Qi, there is the blessing of Buddhism, so naturally everything will be safe."

The emperor sneered in his heart: It turns out that Wu Nian'an is not where the Queen Mother is going, but is prepared for Haitang.

Seeing that the emperor had nothing to say, the queen mother said: "Although you are nearly forty years old, you have always been in good health, and you don't need to be drafted. You just pick a few daughters from families with meritorious officials. You will be appointed concubines and concubines. It also puts an end to the rumors among the common people that you, the emperor, are controlled by the demon queen and do not accept concubines."

It turned out to be the case.

"Let me go back and think about... how to arrange it." The emperor staggered two steps and left the Moyu Palace.

The Queen Mother's words just now were not kept away from others. The maids and chamberlains in the inner palace, as well as the doctors, guards and female officials in the outer palace all heard it clearly.

"Your Majesty, do you really want to send your Majesty to Wu Nian Nunnery?" Ling Xue asked eagerly when seeing no one around.The emperor and empress had a deep love for so many years. They had seen it with their own eyes from beginning to end. Ling Xue did not believe that the emperor could be so heartless. "Just now, were there many people inside and outside the house?" the emperor asked inexplicably.

An Qing did the math and said, "Men and women, there must be about twenty of them."

"If the Queen Mother still wants to leave room, will she let so many people hear it?"

Ling Xue and An Qing looked at each other: No wonder they were wondering just now why the people in Moyu Palace stood so concentrated.Among the people brought by the emperor, they and Chang Xi were the only ones who entered the palace. If the dozen guards outside the palace were included, the number would be even greater.

"The Queen Mother was stimulated by Yunqi's death. Besides, she has never been a stupid person." The emperor shook his head and said with a bitter smile.Before the knot between him and Haitang could be untied, here, the Queen Mother was struggling with each other again.Who would care about the pain in his heart of losing his son?

The emperor decided to go back and talk to the empress first, he didn't want the empress dowager's words to be passed on to Xuanyun Palace first.

But before the emperor's sedan returned to Xuanyun Palace, it was stopped by the eunuch on duty in the main hall: "Your Majesty, it's not good. General Li and several ministers jointly submitted a petition, and they must present it to the Emperor. The Crown Prince I can't stand it in the hall"

If something happened in the main hall, it would not be a trivial matter. The emperor had no choice but to glance at the entrance of Xuanyun Palace and pass by in a hurry.

What he didn't see was that as soon as his sedan chariot left, Chang Shun had a sad face and hurried back to the palace.

As soon as the emperor entered the hall, the civil and military officials who were making noise just now fell silent.Prince Yunzhen hurriedly stood up from his chair, his face full of resentment.

"I'm here. Tell me, what's the matter with you to join the school?"

General Li immediately came out and said: "Report to the emperor, and I will wait for the emperor to abolish the empress!"

"Depose the Queen? Just because I wanted to kill your son yesterday and bury him with the prince, you want to depose the Queen?"

Lord Lu hurriedly came out and said, "I would like to report to the emperor, what happened yesterday, I am grateful for the emperor's kindness to my youngest son, but this is not a cause, but an effect. Back then, the emperor killed those who spread rumors without mercy. He also ordered His Highness Prince Kang to admit that he was the one who spread the rumors. Indeed, no one dared to say that the Queen was the Demon Queen.

But yesterday, everyone witnessed with their own eyes that the third prince also died because of the evil book the Queen had learned, and the Demon Queen's words were revealed again.Your Majesty, stability in the court is more important than a woman in the harem! "

The uncle-in-law Cheng Hanbai, who was the commander-in-chief of the Fifth Army at the time, glared angrily: "If my sister is a demon, and I am also a demon, today I will show you how the demons eliminate harm for the people!" He raised his fist and was about to hit Lu Zhiang. go.

The ministers nearby were hiding, blocking, and pushing, and it was a mess.

General Li puffed up his chest and shouted: "The Queen practiced sorcery and practiced sorcery, and she didn't say that your whole family was the one who checked in on you. If you hit me, I'm not afraid of you!"

Zhao Muzhe happened to be standing in front of him. He had already disliked him. He turned around and punched General Li, cursing: "Are you not even afraid of me?"

Emperor: Fight hard!I don’t want to shout stop!
