Forbidden Autumn, Summer, Winter and Spring Rebirth
Chapter 81 77 Seizes the Son
Xia Dongchun sat in the side hall all night with dark circles under his eyes, feeling numb in his heart.
She didn't read much, but she had heard the allusion of "Zhuang Zhou dreamed of butterflies", and she also knew that "the truth is also false when the false is true." Sometimes she herself couldn't tell whether what she thought was her past life was a nightmare, or whether her current life was just a dream.
She looked at the child who was still sleeping, with warmth in her eyes and tears. Even if this was a dream, even if she was indeed the heretic, she would persevere for the sake of her child.
At the end of the day, the sky was still gray. Xia Dongchun looked up and looked out the window, his eyes becoming more determined.
Ginguo and the others came in to help her wash up, they were all careful, looking distressed but helpless.
"Bring me the auspicious clothes that I wore when I was concubine." Xia Dongchun said in a deep voice.
Bai Guo was surprised, but didn't ask any more questions.
"My slave, please give me a dignified flag hairdo to match the auspicious clothes." Yue Shan saw Xia Dongchun's solemn expression and had some premonitions in her heart.
"Yes." Xia Dongchun glanced at Yueshan approvingly.
As soon as everything was tidied up here, a commotion outside the palace was heard. Yu Xin came to report that she was someone from the Queen's side.
Xia Dongchun's heart sank, and he thought to himself: Sure enough, it's here.
Several eunuchs, nuns, and a large group of people arrived outside the main hall of Yanxi Palace. Jiang Fuhai's high-pitched voice then sounded: "The Queen has a purpose!"
Xia Dongchun led everyone to kneel down to receive the order.
"According to the Queen Mother's decree, Concubine Chang is caught in an unlucky horoscope and is suspected of heresy. She is not suitable to raise the emperor's heirs. Therefore, I will temporarily move my brother and princess into my brother's residence."
Closing her eyes, Xia Dongchun felt sulky in her heart. She had indeed guessed that the queen was right. Now that the emperor had only left the palace for a few days, she trapped herself with the astrology, and now he was going to take Hongmin and Qiongwei away from her.
Jiang Fuhai also noticed that Concubine Chang was dressed in auspicious clothes and dressed solemnly, as if she was well prepared. Even so, he was used to relying on the queen's strength and did not think of anything else.
"Come here, pack up the princess and brother's things and move them to my brother's house."
"Wait a minute, I haven't received the order yet." Xia Dongchun stood up suddenly, hiding the panic in his heart and shouted sternly.
Jiang Fuhai raised his eyes and asked, "Why, does Empress Changcon want to resist the decree?"
"I will obey the Queen's will," Xia Dongchun glanced sharply at Jiang Fuhai, who had a sharp look on his face. He took out something he had prepared in advance from his sleeve and said loudly: "I am holding the Emperor's token. When I see this It's like the emperor is here in person, if you act rashly, don't blame me for being destroyed."
Xia Dongchun raised the emperor's auspicious clouds and dragons with his fingers, and his voice was so fierce that everyone was stunned on the spot. Only Yu Changbin's impassioned speech echoed in the hall.
I don't know who reacted first, knelt down quickly, pointed at the finger in Chang's hand, and shouted, "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor!"
Everyone just came back to their senses and knelt down to salute one after another. Jiang Fuhai looked around and knelt down as a last resort. This ring with auspicious clouds and dragons was naturally worn by the emperor. Unknown to others, Jiang Fuhai, who had been following the empress for many years, knew that this ring was from when the emperor was serving as King Yong in his late residence, he selflessly ran errands for Emperor Kangxi and used thunderous means to investigate. When the treasury was in short supply and the imperial merchants evaded taxes, the late Emperor Long Yan was very happy and rewarded it in front of all the princes. From then on, the emperor often wore it close to his body and never left it. Somehow, it ended up in the hands of Concubine Chang.
Xia Dongchun didn't know the origin of this thumb ring. He only knew that the emperor was playing with Qiong Wei after lunch that day. The jade thumb ring made of yellow fei was completely translucent and shining under the sun. He immediately grabbed the emperor's thumb and held it tightly. Let go, the little person is so strong, Xia Dongchun tried a lot of strength, but couldn't break it open, but she didn't dare to use any more force, just for fear that Qiong Wei's delicate fingers would hurt her again. Xia Dongchun had no choice but to kneel down and plead guilty. Unexpectedly, the emperor was delighted, so he let Qiongwei lift the ring on her thumb and watched her play with it happily.
I thought Qiong Wei was just having a whim, but when the emperor wanted to return to Yangxin Hall to handle political affairs, he still couldn't take it out of his hands. If he tried to take it by force, he would cry and cry.
The emperor seemed to be in a good mood and just asked the princess to play with it. Xia Dongchun looked at the dragon pattern engraved on the finger and did not dare to accept the reward. Seeing that Qiong Wei was having fun playing, he had no choice but to apologize and wait until Qiong Wei was happy. After passing, someone will return the ring finger.
Unexpectedly, within a few days, the emperor went on a winter hunt, and the ring finger stayed in Yanxi Palace. I only thought Qiong Wei was naughty that day, but who would have thought that she would be put to such good use today.
Xia Dongchun knew in her heart that her move violated the palace rules and was even suspected of falsely conveying the imperial edict. But now, she didn't care so much. She only hoped that if the emperor were to ask questions, he would be merciful and punish her alone, without involving Hong Minqiong. Wei, and his brother's family.
Seeing that the situation in front of him was not good, Jiang Fuhai's mind changed and he thought of an excuse.
"I'll forgive you, Concubine Chang. Now that the emperor is not in the palace, the matter of the astrology in the Qin Tian Jian is not a trivial matter. The Empress is also considering the harem for the sake of the former emperor. I also ask Concubine Chang to be considerate and not to embarrass the Empress." Jiang Fuhai bowed his body. , pinching his throat and said unhurriedly.
"I have no intention of disobeying the Queen. In fact, the Emperor has told me to take good care of the prince and princess, and to make sure that mother and son stay together. He also bestowed this auspicious cloud with dragons on his fingers. Therefore, I don't know. Should we listen to the emperor or the empress? Why not ask Eunuch Jiang to answer my questions?" Xia Dongchun looked steadily at Jiang Fuhai, who was calm and composed in front of him, and refused to give in.
Jiang Fuhai's expression froze and he didn't know how to answer.
"Since Eunuch Jiang doesn't know the importance of it, then please go back. I also have something to ask Eunuch Jiang to take to Jingren Palace." Xia Dongchun took a step forward and said in a slow and powerful voice: "If you don't know , unless you do nothing."
Bowing and saluting, Jiang Fuhai silently led the people out of Yanxi Palace.
After the palace door was closed again, Xia Dongchun felt as if a thousand kilograms of weight had been lifted off her body. She was swaying and unsteady. Mo Shuang and Bai Guo rushed forward to steady her with quick eyes and hands.
Walking to the inner room, Xia Dongchun slowly sat down, and was surprised to find that her back was already covered in cold sweat. Yue Shan went out to pass the hot water, preparing for Xia Dongchun to take a bath.
Xia Dongchun was uneasy and went to the side hall to take a look at the two children. She saw that they had had breakfast and were playing with their wet nurses. They had not been affected by the battle just now, so Xia Dongchun went back with peace of mind.
Sitting in the bathtub, Xia Dongchun breathed a long sigh of relief, but was still worried. Although the dangerous tactics of the military expedition had passed the test for the time being, there was no guarantee that the Queen would not succeed in one plan and then create another one.
Ging Guo and others waited on her to take a bath, while persuading her to eat some food and get some sleep.
"I'm afraid what happened today will involve you." Xia Dongchun sighed.
Several people hurriedly comforted her with gentle words and advised her not to think wildly. For now, the only way is to wait until the emperor returns to the palace after winter hunting before making any plans.
After bathing and eating some food, Xia Dongchun lay on the bed, feeling depressed and thinking wildly, but finally couldn't resist the exhaustion and fell into a drowsy sleep.
