The little daughter-in-law of the palace

Chapter 368 The new love of Princess Shou'an (1)
The death of Concubine Song Keying, Princess of Shou, was nothing but a commotion for most people in the capital, but for Concubine Li, the grandson she had been looking forward to for several months was gone, and her beloved daughter-in-law and niece had also died. It hurts from the inside out, as if someone had gouged out a piece of flesh.

The Empress Dowager lived more than 20 years longer than her. In order to support Concubine Li to be the Empress, make the Fourth Emperor Sunshou Wang the Crown Prince, and maintain the power of the Song family, she had several quarrels with her son, Emperor Mingde. The relationship between mother and child has long since weakened. When a grand-niece of her natal family who was not very close to her died, she would definitely sigh, but she didn't take it too seriously.

With Song Keying gone, there will be other girls in the Song family. At the beginning, King Shou’s plan to choose the concubine and queen mother was to choose a powerful wife for the emperor and grandson. passed down from generation to generation...

The only thing to blame is Song Keying's poor fortune, even if she becomes the concubine of Shou Wang, she doesn't have that life to enjoy herself.

"Look at how thin you have become." Concubine Li came to the Compassion Palace to pay her respects this day, and the Empress Dowager turned around, scolding with displeasure and pity.

Concubine Li is a member of the middle generation of the Song family, and she is close to the queen mother as an aunt, and she is also close to Song Keying as an aunt, so she has nothing to hide in front of the queen mother. , I wanted to find it out and have a look, but they took it away..."

Yesterday, when I heard that Rui Wang and his wife entered the palace with the emperor's eldest grandson to greet them, she couldn't help but think of her unfavorable grandson again.

"It should be taken away!" The queen mother reprimanded in a low voice, and then stared at her niece's blank eyes, and said a series of accusations, "You have been in the palace for so many years, why haven't you made any progress at all? You can't come back to life after death, so what's the matter with you being sad?" Use? The important thing is to look forward, think about what benefits you can get from this matter, and think about what kind of princess you should choose for the fourth child! As long as the fourth child is here, are you afraid that you will not be hugged by your grandson?"

Concubine Li was stunned.

benefit?

She has been feeling sorry for her niece and grandson for more than a month, so how could she think of any good?
The Empress Dowager is angry when she sees her like this, she has a good skin, she is not as good as Concubine Hui in attracting men, and she can't even help with her son's important affairs.

"The fourth brother told me that he suspected that Keying died strangely. Jiuhua Temple is so big, why didn't that thief run anywhere, but only bumped into Keying?" The queen mother reminded in a low voice.

Concubine Li's eyes widened in shock, and she clenched her hands tightly in the next moment, gnashing her teeth and said, "Prince Ding must have ordered someone to do it!" His son's biggest opponent is King Ding, and King Ding himself has no son. Only after killing his son did he resort to this poisonous trick!
The Empress Dowager also found Wang Ding disliked, but she was not ignorant. King Ding really wanted to kill someone behind his back. Instead of knocking off the son of the fourth child, it would be better to kill the fourth child directly. That person could bump into the fourth daughter-in-law. There is a chance to assassinate the fourth child.But no matter whether the thief's appearance was a coincidence or someone else targeted Song Keying, it didn't prevent them from targeting King Ding.

Calling Concubine Li to her ear, the Empress Dowager gave some instructions in a low voice.

Concubine Li nodded obediently, and soon fell ill after returning home.

Although Emperor Ming De favored Concubine Hui, he had some old feelings for Concubine Li, his cousin. Concubine Li had just lost her daughter-in-law, and when he learned that she was ill, Emperor Ming De took time to visit her.Hearing from the imperial physician that Concubine Li was overly sad and depressed, Emperor Mingde held Concubine Li's hand and comforted him and said, "Since what happened, the fourth child is already very uncomfortable. If you fall ill again, won't you add trouble to him?" ? And the mother's side, don't always worry about the one who went, let the people around you worry about you. "

For Song Keying, when she was just a niece, the little girl was delicate and cute, and Emperor Mingde was willing to spoil her, but after becoming a daughter-in-law, Song Keying was narrow-minded and jealous. Emperor Mingde actually knew it and was just lazy to take care of it. Later, Song Keying knew She had to move around when she was pregnant, which resulted in not keeping the royal heirs. Emperor Mingde only wanted to let go of his grandson, and he hated Song Keying so much, so I couldn't see Concubine Li being jealous of such a stupid woman.

Concubine Li sighed quietly, looked at Emperor Mingde and said: "The emperor is right, I am ignorant, but I just saw that the sisters of the good concubines hugged their grandsons, but I couldn't wait for my grandson, I felt so sad. Just... Ke Ying is so miserable, she rarely wants to go out to worship the Bodhisattva, but she encounters such a thing, that wicked thief, he can't run anywhere, he insists on bumping into my grandson..."

It is normal to hide deep meaning in the anger, but the resentment and grief in it are real, and he buried himself in Emperor Mingde's arms and wept.

Emperor Ming De instinctively hugged his cousin to comfort him, patted his cousin, and frowned slightly.

He has countless important things to do every day, the death of a daughter-in-law that he didn't like is nothing, and the ins and outs are very clear, the fault is that the daughter-in-law is restless, so naturally he didn't think too much about it, but now he heard Concubine Li was sad Emperor Mingde couldn't help but think about it.

Maybe the thief has another origin?
Who in the capital would most dislike the fourth child having an heir?
In February, he reprimanded the second son, King Ding, because of the problem of heirs, and in March, the fourth daughter-in-law had an accident...

As for the relationship between the second child and the fourth child, the second child was chased and killed on the way back from Fujian, and the fourth child nearly died while hunting with him. The people behind the two incidents were perfect, so he could only suspect without any real evidence.Even this time, if the fourth brother really found out the evidence, he wouldn't stab the thief to death to vent his anger.

Was that the hand of the second child?
It is a fool's thing to kill the fourth son's heir alone, because after killing a fourth son, he will marry again, but it is precisely because of this that people will not suspect him.

Emperor Mingde returned to Chongzheng Hall with a heavy heart, and King Xuanshou entered the palace before sunset.

"Father Emperor." Shou Wang rushed over in plain clothes, with a haggard look, like a clear sky covered by dark clouds.

Losing his wife and children overnight, no one can remain indifferent. Emperor Mingde understood his son's suffering, but he still persuaded him: "It's not a problem after all if your cousin is gone and you have no one to serve you. I will let your mother The concubine will look after you and pick a good girl for you, and if you meet a suitable one, you can also tell me why a man has no wife, and he must not be immersed in grief and waste his ambition."
