Chapter 61
Hanyin froze there, unable to recover for a while.
Zhao Wuyou said, his woman?
Thinking of that morning that made people blush and heartbeat, Hanyin quickly averted his gaze from Zhao Wuyou.
There was Zhao Wuyou's gentle voice, "I just came to see if those dog slaves hurt you. Now that you are thoughtful, I feel relieved. You can leave whenever you want, and you don't have to sneak around. I'm not someone who makes things difficult for others, if you really want to leave, I won't stay, and I won't entangle you in the future, so let's end this."
Zhao Wuyou turned around and walked out, "Out of the capital, you and I will return to the bridge and return to the road. If you - if you want to come back, the door of the Shangshu Mansion is open for you at any time. falsehood."
When the gate of the Town God's Temple was closed again, Hanyin seemed a little exhausted, limp and powerless, and didn't know where to go for a while.
After finally escaping from the Shangshu Mansion, she was found by Zhao Wuyou in the blink of an eye. It is conceivable that she could not escape from his grasp at all.Zhao Wuyou seemed to exist like a god, just as aloof as when he first met.His gentle smile seemed to be well-thought-out, and everything was clear.
Therefore, she cannot escape Zhao Wuyou's hand.
But what should she do?
When Zhao Wuyou said, if you leave the capital, we will return to the bridge and return to the road, she was flustered.
I don't know what to do, and I don't know how to choose.
To leave, or to stay?
In the huge capital city, she didn't know where the people from Wuji Palace were, and she didn't dare to leave the password easily.Zhao Wuyou is too clever, so clever that Hanyin feels unreal.
"Master?" Yun Zheng stepped forward, "What should she do?"
"It's okay." Zhao Wuyou took a deep breath, "Go back!"
"My lord, aren't you afraid that she will run away?" Yunzheng worried.
Zhao Wuyou glanced at her sideways, "In such a huge capital, if she had somewhere to go, she wouldn't stay here. If she could leave the capital, would she wait until now? Just keep an eye on it, don't stop."
"If she really leaves the capital, what should I do?" Yunzheng helped Zhao Wuyou into the carriage.
"Then keep watching." Zhao Wuyou smiled coolly, "If she leaves the capital, she will contact the people in Wuji Palace. To me, it doesn't matter if she leaves or not, it's just a pawn to use It's worth less!"
No one can threaten the Xiangfu, and no one can threaten her, Zhao Wuyou.
She is unfettered and unfettered, so who can do anything to her?
Hanyin didn't come back, and stayed in the Chenghuang Temple all night, and didn't leave the capital either.
Either waiting for backup, or not knowing what to do.
Zhao Wuyou waited patiently, she had nothing else but to be patient.The palm prints on her face will eventually fade away, and she is still that suave and suave young man in white.
After dealing with the emperor's Taoism, now only the emperor's tour in micro-clothes is left.
This matter must not be sloppy at all, the palace is also quietly busy, and the sixth department dare not slack off.
Department of Education.
Zhao Wuyou sighed softly, and Hong Gu stepped forward to salute, "Your Excellency, is there something on your mind?"
"It's nothing, I just feel a little uneasy!" Zhao Wuyou fiddled with the jade token in his hand.
Hong Gu lowered her eyes, "Is your lord afraid that they will attack the emperor?"
"Isn't that what my aunt taught women? Women are the best weapons to men. They can kill people invisible, and they can defeat others without fighting. Throughout the ages, there are not a few people who are overwhelmed by countries. There is a concubine who loves Daxia, and later there is Baosi, who plays with the princes, and Farewell My Concubine Ai Hengchang." Zhao Wuyou leaned lazily on the soft couch, and slowly stroked the lines on the jade plaque with his fingertips, "Woman The power is the most terrifying."
"Your Excellency's words make this servant feel more important." Hong Gu sighed softly, "You are not in good health, so don't think about it. Those who are there are not, and if the sky falls, there will be tall ones to support them. no."
Zhao Wuyou nodded, "I also know that there is a prime minister's mansion above, but be prepared for danger in times of peace, otherwise sooner or later it will become someone else's prey. Recently, I discovered that someone is trying to get the Jiaofang Secretary's idea."
"How does your lord know?" Hong Gu was taken aback.
"These days are a bit strange. Every time I go out, there are more and more entertainers on the street. It's fine if I meet a market, but it's only when I go out. I have been observed for a while, since Fu Yuying entered After the palace, there is something wrong with the ten-mile long street in the capital." Zhao Wuyou narrowed his dangerous eyes, "They thought I didn't know, and they were still performing hard there."
Hong Gu was startled, "Your Excellency, be careful, if these people attack you, the consequences will be disastrous."
"If you want to do it, you've already done it, let alone—" Zhao Wuyou paused, "Do they dare to touch me? This is the capital city, not the small town at the foot of the mountain. This is my territory. I will let them die without a place to bury them before I lay hands on me."
Hong Gu nodded, "However, it's better to be careful."
"You should visit my mother more often if you have the chance!" Zhao Wuyou closed his eyebrows and took a nap.
"I haven't visited Madam for a long time." Hong Gu let out a long breath.
"My mother was frightened last time, and now I don't know what to do. I'm not allowed to enter the temple until the ninth day of the lunar new year. If you have time, go and see for me! Anyway, there are not many new recruits in the Jiaofang Division, so you can spare time." Zhao Wuyou closed his eyes and said.
"Yes!" Hong Gu saluted and exited cautiously.
Zhao Wuyou was a little flustered with exhaustion. These days, she started taking medicine again, and her body still couldn't stand the torment.In a daze, she began to dream again, dreaming that the whistle of the train, accompanied by the man at the window who kept waving his hands, quickly disappeared in front of her.
She chased the train, crying and shouting, "Brother, don't go...you are gone, what should I do?"
But the train is ruthless, and what it brings is either a reunion or a parting.
"Young Master?" It was Yunzheng's voice, "Young Master? Come quickly, and invite the doctor!"
Zhao Wuyou started to have a fever again, his consciousness was weak and he was in a trance.Her body was light and soft, and she felt like she was sitting on a cloud, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, just like sitting on an airplane, looking at the charming blue outside the window.
The same blue as the sea, so beautiful and beautiful.
She slept for two full days.
Inside the East Factory.
"Sick again?" Mu Baili frowned.
"Yes!" Lu Guoan saluted, "He has a fever for no reason."
Mu Baili frowned, "Has Shen Yan ever returned?"
"This meeting should start from there." Lu Guoan said, "Qianliju will take two days at the fastest."
Xia Donglou was deprived of his title, but there are many members of the Xia family in the imperial court, and now everyone is dissatisfied with the emperor's handling, and they have come forward to ask the emperor to restore Xia Donglou's duke position for the sake of the late emperor.
The emperor had soft ears and was a vacillating person.
But not everyone supports Xia Donglou's restoration, such as the Fang family.
Fang Luan is a member of Jinyiwei Qianhu. In the early years, he had some grievances with Zhong Mian, who was the military commander of the five cities, and then Zhong Mian quietly joined Xia Donglou.Although Xia Donglou has now lost power, and Zhao Wuyou has also taken away the post of commander of the Wucheng army and horses by Zhao Wuyou, he has always held a grudge against Zhao Wuyou and the Fang family.
Now that Xia Donglou has lost his favor, Fang Luan thought, taking advantage of this time to kill Zhong Mian.
But the premise is that Xia Donglou cannot be reset.
Once Xia Donglou was reset, he would be like a tiger pouncing flies on his head, courting death.
The Fang family and the party members of the Prime Minister's House began to refute the memorial to reset Xia's family, and some people watched the fire from the other side, thinking it was a fool's errand.Various forces began to argue, and no one gave in.
But at this time, Zhao Wuyou fell ill again.
The cabinet's booklet has been overwhelmed, and there is still no way to implement it.
Dongchang also began to mix up, and finally someone passed the cabinet and Dongchang, and directly sent the book to the imperial court.
The emperor felt a pain in his head, and Panxi sat on the futon frowning, "Daoist, what do you think I should do?"
Daoist Xu flicked his white beard lightly, "The emperor is the Ziwei star who came down to earth, everything is blessed by heaven, Sanqing is by his side, and he will protect my emperor's kingdom for ten thousand years."
But the emperor is very useful, this is a compliment that he is a star descending from heaven!
Want to be a fairy, can you not be happy?
"I can't slap myself in the face now. I have just punished Xia Donglou and then withdraw my life. Isn't this going back on my word?" The emperor was annoyed.
Daoist Xu said with a smile, "Your Majesty, mortals are vulgar. You are the Son of Heaven, so naturally you don't care about them like them."
Hearing this, the emperor threw the bag into the medicine shed, "Forget it, I pretend I didn't see it, and I will kill anyone who dares to block my way of seeking immortality and asking." While talking, Dan Suddenly the furnace shook.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" Daoist Xu was delighted, "The first furnace of longevity pills has been refined."
"Really?" The emperor got up all of a sudden, and ran to the alchemy furnace with great excitement, his face was full of surprises, "Is there hope for my immortality?"
Daoist Xu saluted, "Infinite Life Buddha, the emperor is a man appointed by God, it is indeed God's will!"
Opened the alchemy furnace, there were three red pills inside, and there was a thin white mist. At first glance, it really looked like that.
Concentrating on the palm of the hand, Daoist Xu urged the inner strength, the three pills slowly flew into the air, and slowly fell into the palm of Daoist Xu.The emperor's mind is full of immortality, cultivating immortals and Taoism, which will make him feel that the Tao is extremely long.
Look, this elixir is all spiritual.
Daoist Xu put the three elixirs into the brocade box he had prepared long ago, with extra care.Close the brocade box, and said in a long way, "This elixir needs to be placed in front of the golden statue of the Sanqing, and it can be taken with the rootless water after a day and a night of poor practice. Take one pill every ten days. Do not take more or less , Your Majesty must remember."
The emperor was extremely pious, "I understand, there is a way to do it."
"Infinite Life Buddha!" Daoist Xu let out a breath, and carefully placed the brocade box in front of the golden statue of Sanqing.
"Can the Taoist priest prepare more pills for me, what if I run out of them?" The emperor was inevitably worried.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, Pindao will always prepare pills for the Emperor, so that the Emperor will remain young and live forever." It doesn't take much effort to speak big words, just pretend to be serious.
The emperor believed it, and when he went out, he was so happy that he was going to live forever. How excited is this?It is even more exciting than when he ascended the throne as emperor, which shows that emperors are afraid of death.
Immortality is the dream of many people.
He did it!
After thinking about it, the emperor stared at Xiao Dezi, "Is it because I threw the booklet into the stove, so this pill was suddenly refined after receiving spiritual energy? Or is it because the heavens appreciate my piety and wholeheartedly devote myself to the Tao, so ..."
The emperor suddenly realized, "It must be like this! Go, bring those useless booklets to me, and give them to the Taoist priest for alchemy and medicine."
Xiao Dezi was taken aback for a moment, "Your Majesty, where can I get it?"
"Stupid, of course it's the imperial study. If it doesn't work, go to the cabinet, and the East Factory Supervisor. They must have a lot of papers to approve the red on my behalf." The emperor stroked his chin and fell into deep thought, "Sure enough, it's heaven. Great responsibility must put honesty first, and then seek benevolence and get benevolence."
"Yes!" Xiao Dezi ran away.
He hadn't heard of it yet, that the alchemy was too expensive, the emperor became more and more unreliable, and became more and more obsessed with cultivating Taoism.But since the emperor said it, he could only follow through, but this news... still had to be sent out.
The news went to Tingfeng Building.
Zhao Wuyou has already woken up, but he is still a little dazed.
Hearing the news from the palace that the emperor wanted to burn Zhezi to make alchemy, he immediately laughed, "Is this method thought up by Taoist Master Xu?"
Yunzheng shook her head, "I didn't say that, but it probably has something to do with Daoist Xu."
"This is much simpler and more effective than preventing the emperor from rejecting the booklet and restoring the Xia family, tearing it up on the bright side." Zhao Wuyou coughed twice, his face was paler than ordinary people.
Yunzheng brought the medicine bowl, "My lord, this servant has let the medicine cool down, it's ready to drink."
Zhao Wuyou nodded, picked up the medicine bowl and frowned again, "The medicine is too bitter, I really don't want to drink it."
"The servant has prepared sugar hawthorn for the young master. The sweet and sour taste is just like a bitter medicine." Yunzheng brought a small plate of hawthorn slices.
"Where do you get the hawthorn this season?" Zhao Wuyou looked up at her.
"Young master forgot, you also said this last year. The medicine is too bitter, and the candied fruit is too sweet. You don't like to eat it. It's better to eat hawthorn sour and sweet." Yunzheng smiled, "Slave servant So people quietly planted some in the south to see if they can be supplied all year round. Whoever imagined it, it really did happen!"
Zhao Wuyou smiled and said, "I just said it casually, but you took it to heart."
"Your servants will remember what you said, how dare you forget it." Yunzheng took a deep breath, "Young master, is it delicious?"
"Not bad." Zhao Wuyou handed out the empty medicine bowl with a smile.
Looking back at the pear tree outside the window, the pear blossoms have almost withered, and now the green leaves of the tree are slowly growing.In spring, the pear blossoms outshine the snow, in summer the leaves are full of shade, in autumn the trees are full of fruit, and in winter the yellow leaves are all gone, leaving only depression.
The scenery is different throughout the year, how beautiful it is to lean on the building and listen to the wind.
"Young master, what should we do about the zhezi?" Yunzheng returned to the main topic, "I can't burn all the zhezi! If this is the case, it will block the way of talking, and I am afraid that something will happen in the future."
Zhao Wuyou took a deep breath, "I'm in better health now, once the cabinet papers come up, let them read them quickly, and don't need to reply to irrelevant ones, it's okay to send them to be burned directly. Some important papers will be deducted on the spot, and then immediately Approval and report. The time is a little tight, but it's better than burning all the brains."
"Yes!" Yunzheng nodded, "I will let you know."
Zhao Wuyou coughed lightly, "By the way, is there any movement in the East Factory?" The ghostwriter approved the red, in addition to the cabinet and Mu Baili, she hurriedly approved the document here, and Mu Baili didn't know what action would be taken.
Yunzheng shook her head, "Dongchang's mouth is always the tightest, so I didn't find out anything. It's just that some time ago, someone saw Shen Yan from Dongchang's thousand households leaving the capital, riding lightly, and I don't know where he went. "
"Shen Yan is Mu Baili's confidant, unless there is some urgent business, and Mu Baili is unwilling to accept others, he will let Shen Yan go out of Beijing." Zhao Wuyou frowned, "Send someone to check, Shen Yan Where did Yan go?"
"Young master wants to investigate the matter of Dongchang?" Yunzheng hesitated, "Master Xiang didn't come back, if he angered those eunuchs in Dongchang..."
"It's not the first time to provoke him. One more time is not too much, and one less time is quite a lot." Zhao Wuyou remembered the bathing incident that night, and the anger in his belly rushed to his forehead.
Who said eunuchs don't like things between men and women, in her opinion, Mu Baili's eunuch is purely the kind with unclean six roots.
Eunuch the body, forget to eunuch the heart.
Since ancient times, history books have recorded that the eunuchs should be the first to bear the brunt of the dirty palace.
The next day, at dawn, the cabinet immediately sent the irrelevant documents to the palace for the emperor to burn for alchemy.The same is true of Dongchang, but there is a silent tacit understanding, and they all send the booklets early to please the emperor.
Of course the emperor is happy, if you ministers agree with me in seeking immortality, then I can burn zhezi, refine alchemy, and live forever.
The emperor devoted himself to immortality, so he naturally neglected the harem.After several days of not being favored by others, the harem began to move around, and the women began to wonder whether they could snatch the emperor here while no one favored them.
In Kunning Palace.
"The concubine sees the empress!" Xia Lan knelt respectfully, still in the original docile and respectful attitude.
"Get up!" The queen seemed a little out of spirits, and Jingyi rubbed her temples for the queen.
Xia Lan stood up and stepped forward with a smile.
Jingyi retreated knowingly and let Xia Lan take her place.
"Your Majesty is not feeling well, do you want to invite the imperial physician over?" Xia Lan asked in a low voice.
The queen closed her eyes, leaning on the soft couch and enjoying Xia Lan's service, "What are you looking at? These imperial physicians are full of wine bags and rice bags, and it seems that they are so virtuous. This old problem of this palace has been around for a long time, and there is nothing wrong with it." of."
Xia Lan nodded, "The concubine will come to serve the empress every day until the empress is in good health."
"I am very happy if you have this kind of heart." The queen opened her eyes slightly, "Your father's matter will not implicate you, you can rest assured."
"Father offended the emperor abruptly, so he really should be punished. But father is old, how can he stand up to this punishment, and now my concubine is in the palace, I don't know what happened to my father..." As he spoke, he burst into tears, " Elder sister was punished, and she was restrained and unable to escape, and now this kind of thing happened again. Madam, my concubine is really helpless, I hope you can save my concubine and father's life!"
After saying that, Xia Lan knelt down with a plop.
The queen frowned, "Get up, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, it's not like you don't know."
"My lady, my concubine knows that the harem is not allowed to do politics, so I dare not make an exception for the empress, but..." Xia Lan pursed her lips and lowered her head, "The concubine received a message from my sister a few days ago, saying that... my sister has Pregnant. Concubine, concubine thinking, advise elder sister to work with concubine to serve empress well. I don’t know, empress, you..."
She spoke tremblingly, how cautiously.
"What did you say?" The queen sat up suddenly, "You mean, your sister is pregnant?"
"Yes!" Xia Lan knelt down on the ground, "Your Majesty, my concubine dare not lie."
The queen let out a long breath, lowered her eyebrows and looked at her lower abdomen.It is a dereliction of duty for the queen to have been in the palace for many years without a son and a half, and it is the greatest regret for a woman.
"Your sister's temper is too impatient, I'm afraid I can't do anything about it." Xia Qiongzhi was arrogant and domineering at the beginning, although she was stunningly stunning, she was too sharp in the end.The queen doesn't like women who are too flamboyant. After all, these people exist to weaken her queen's status and favor.
"Empress!" Xia Lan burst into tears, "The concubine must persuade my sister, she already knew she was wrong, and she has changed a lot. The concubine can guarantee her life. In the future, we two sisters will only follow the empress, never I will disobey my mother in the slightest. My mother, my concubine swears, if I break this oath, the sky will strike me with lightning. Your mother!"
The queen hesitated a bit, and made the oath, which logically should be trusted.
Can……
"Your Majesty, my concubine can listen to her whatever she wants, and my whole Xia family can serve her. Madam, please help my concubine's sister!" Xia Lan burst into tears, "My Majesty, Fu Jieyu If she gives birth to a son and the harem has no children, her son will be the crown prince."
In a word, the heart is full of blood.
If Fu Yuying gave birth to a son for the emperor, then judging from Fu Yuying's current favored situation, her son is very likely to be the best candidate for the crown prince.
In the sleeves, the five fingers curled up, and the queen sighed, "I will give it a try, but you'd better remember the oath you made."
"Thank you, empress!" Xia Lan wept, "I will remember this concubine in my heart. I thank empress for her kindness on behalf of my sister."
After leaving Kunning Palace, Xia Lan went directly to Xia Qiongzhi's place.
Xia Qiongzhi had her title lowered and was grounded back then, so life is very sad now.Although she is the eldest daughter of the Xia family, she entered this harem only because of the emperor's favor, without which she cannot live.
Seeing these women fall out of favor, the eunuchs began to domineering and trampled people under their feet.
The harem is where all the cold places in the world are.
"How can this kind of thing be eaten by the master?" Huandong threw the bowls and chopsticks in his hand on the ground, his face was full of anger, "you are really snobs, and when you saw the master fell out of favor, you climbed up your head one by one. You Wait, one day, sooner or later, when the master returns to the emperor, he will skin your dogs one by one!"
The eunuch sneered, "Go back? The Duke's Mansion is gone now, can you go back to the emperor?"
Huandong's anger didn't strike a single point, "Don't talk nonsense."
"The emperor has deprived the Duke of the country of his title. Everyone knows about it. Why are you talking nonsense?" The eunuch looked coldly at Xia Qiongzhi, who was standing at the door of the bedroom, trembling with anger.
Xia Qiongzhi held back the fire in her chest. Now she is in this harem, suffering all kinds of abuse.Thinking back to when I was in the Duke's Mansion back then, it was like the wind and the rain. Who knew that in the harem, even a eunuch trampled himself underfoot.
Not to mention skipping meals, you have to support yourself.
She doesn't touch Yang Chunshui with her ten fingers, where has she ever done this, from the initial rage to the current reticence, it can be seen that she has suffered a lot.Looking at the bowl of rough yellow rice on the ground, it was probably another overnight meal.
Silently, Xia Qiongzhi stepped forward slowly, "Okay, Huandong, stop talking."
"Master, has he ever suffered such pain?" Huandong was so angry that tears rolled down his face, "These snobs are simply too hateful."
"It's okay!" Xia Qiongzhi turned around and went to the backyard.
Xia Lan's voice came from the small door in the backyard, "Sister?"
Xia Qiongzhi hurried forward, and Huandong stood in the corridor to keep out the wind so as not to be seen.
"Sister." Xia Qiongzhi almost cried.
"Sister, don't worry, you'll be fine soon. I've already begged the empress, and I'm sure you'll be released soon. Sister, you have to be patient. Our Xia family depends on you and me." Xia Lan choked up, "Sister, the Duke's Mansion is gone."
Xia Qiongzhi lowered her eyes and burst into tears, "It's all my fault that I was too self-willed earlier and forgot that this is the palace, not the Duke's mansion. Now I'm doing it on my own, thanks to you, otherwise I'm afraid I'm going to end up here for the rest of my life." .”
"Sister, don't worry, you'll be out soon." Xia Lan burst into tears.
"Okay!" Xia Qiongzhi nodded.
As long as she goes out, as long as she can go out, she can suffer any hardship and suffer any crime.She's had enough of this dark place.She will take back those humiliations and tramples one by one in the future.
Zhao Wuyou, Fu Yuying, let's wait and see.
Although the emperor asked about it, he was very happy when he heard that Xia Qiongzhi was pregnant.After all, the emperor's harem didn't have many heirs. There were several princesses, but they never had a son.
The emperor is not young anymore, if it is time to establish an emperor's heir in the future, it is absolutely impossible to have no son.
But at the beginning, Xia Qiongzhi was put under house arrest because she made a mistake. What should she do now to prevent her favorite minister from being chilled or opposed?
Ever since the empress mentioned this matter, the emperor hesitated a little. Although the emperor's heir was the most important thing, he could still raise a baby if he stayed there, so it was still difficult for Xia Qiongzhi to come out.
The emperor walked into Lianhua Palace with some embarrassment, and looked at Fu Yuying who was rolling up her sleeves and pruning flowers and branches in the courtyard.
Fu Yuying didn't expect the emperor to come over, she hastily put down the scissors and saluted, "The concubine sees the emperor!"
"Why don't you do such rough things yourself." The emperor supported her, "You are still pregnant, so you have to be careful."
"The concubine has nothing to do, just want to pass the time!" Fu Yuying smiled, and she could see the emperor's hesitation at a glance, "I heard that the emperor has refined the immortality pill, congratulations to the emperor Congratulations to the emperor."
When the emperor heard this, he immediately smiled, "After all, it is Qing who understands my heart best."
"Concubines are the emperor's people, so they naturally want to share their worries and labors with the emperor, and share their joy with the emperor." Fu Yuying had something to say.
"That—" the emperor hesitated, "You are usually the smartest and the most favored by me. Actually, I have a problem and I don't know how to deal with it. Why don't you and I come up with an idea?"
Fu Yuying smiled and said, "Please tell me, Your Majesty."
"The Xia Zhaoyi from earlier was a daughter of the Xia family, and now she is pregnant." When the emperor said this, his gaze fell on Fu Yuying's face.
Fu Yuying kept smiling, and when she heard this, she even laughed out loud, "Is this the emperor's reason?"
"She made a mistake at the beginning, and I punished her to ground her feet. Now that she picks it up, isn't it a bit of a backlash? Do you want to discuss it with the ministers?" How could Fu Yuying not know what the emperor was worried about.
"Your majesty!" Fu Yuying sat down with the emperor, "This is not a back-and-forth, it's for the sake of Daye's heir. In the final analysis, it is actually the emperor's housework. Household matters cannot be compared with those of the previous dynasty. The ministers discuss it. Look at your ministers, who has brought the family affairs to the Golden Luan Hall?"
The emperor felt that it made sense.
Fu Yuying continued, "If the emperor is afraid of objections from the previous court, after all, she is the daughter of the Xia family, so there is a compromise."
"What way?" The emperor asked hurriedly.
"Your Majesty can let her out and restore her original position, she will still be Zhaoyi. After the child is born, if she is a son of the Emperor, then the Emperor will promote her to her position. I am afraid that your lords will have nothing to say." Fu Yuyingshan Understand people's meaning, every sentence speaks to the emperor's heart.
The emperor felt relieved, "This is a good idea!" He hugged Fu Yuying horizontally like a child, and turned around on the spot, "It really is Zhen's Xie Yuhua, a good idea, I will do it according to Qing's wishes!"
"Your Majesty, don't tell Xia Zhaoyi that it was the concubine's idea." Fu Yuying sighed softly.
The emperor was puzzled, "Why?"
Fu Yuying put her arms around the emperor's neck, and the emperor sat down slowly, putting her on his lap.Fu Yuying said in a low voice, "The concubine is also pregnant, but her status is higher than that of Xia Zhaoyi. If she knows that it was my idea, in the future..."
Everyone knew that Xia Qiongzhi was arrogant and domineering back then.So Fu Yuying was afraid, and it was justified.
The emperor frowned, "Just don't worry, even though she has come out, if she still acts recklessly and dares to hurt you, I will never forgive you lightly."
If she got the pardon, Fu Yuying saluted on the ground, "I thank the emperor, my concubine."
The emperor would do things like this, the queen would naturally not say anything, all she wanted was a child.Xia Qiongzhi didn't even dare to say anything. Being able to take the child out of the gate of confinement was already a great grace of the emperor.
After so many days of despair, she finally saw hope in life.
Also because of this, she understands better what is the value of mother and child.
In the harem, as long as you have a son, you can win many things.
Xia Lan waited outside, "Sister, you finally came out."
Xia Qiongzhi became thin, silent and reticent.Seeing Xia Lan, although she shed tears, she didn't say anything more.Glancing at the emperor sitting on the sedan chair, Xia Qiongzhi knelt down respectfully, "My concubine thanks the emperor for his grace, long live my emperor, long live long live long live."
That bright lady back then, the sharp-edged woman, finally restrained her brilliance, and lost a lot of vigor.
The emperor took a deep breath, "Take care of it well so that you can take care of yourself."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xia Qiongzhi still knelt down, until the emperor's chariot gradually moved away, then she stood up and raised her eyes.
In the eyes, there is no warmth.
(End of this chapter)
Hanyin froze there, unable to recover for a while.
Zhao Wuyou said, his woman?
Thinking of that morning that made people blush and heartbeat, Hanyin quickly averted his gaze from Zhao Wuyou.
There was Zhao Wuyou's gentle voice, "I just came to see if those dog slaves hurt you. Now that you are thoughtful, I feel relieved. You can leave whenever you want, and you don't have to sneak around. I'm not someone who makes things difficult for others, if you really want to leave, I won't stay, and I won't entangle you in the future, so let's end this."
Zhao Wuyou turned around and walked out, "Out of the capital, you and I will return to the bridge and return to the road. If you - if you want to come back, the door of the Shangshu Mansion is open for you at any time. falsehood."
When the gate of the Town God's Temple was closed again, Hanyin seemed a little exhausted, limp and powerless, and didn't know where to go for a while.
After finally escaping from the Shangshu Mansion, she was found by Zhao Wuyou in the blink of an eye. It is conceivable that she could not escape from his grasp at all.Zhao Wuyou seemed to exist like a god, just as aloof as when he first met.His gentle smile seemed to be well-thought-out, and everything was clear.
Therefore, she cannot escape Zhao Wuyou's hand.
But what should she do?
When Zhao Wuyou said, if you leave the capital, we will return to the bridge and return to the road, she was flustered.
I don't know what to do, and I don't know how to choose.
To leave, or to stay?
In the huge capital city, she didn't know where the people from Wuji Palace were, and she didn't dare to leave the password easily.Zhao Wuyou is too clever, so clever that Hanyin feels unreal.
"Master?" Yun Zheng stepped forward, "What should she do?"
"It's okay." Zhao Wuyou took a deep breath, "Go back!"
"My lord, aren't you afraid that she will run away?" Yunzheng worried.
Zhao Wuyou glanced at her sideways, "In such a huge capital, if she had somewhere to go, she wouldn't stay here. If she could leave the capital, would she wait until now? Just keep an eye on it, don't stop."
"If she really leaves the capital, what should I do?" Yunzheng helped Zhao Wuyou into the carriage.
"Then keep watching." Zhao Wuyou smiled coolly, "If she leaves the capital, she will contact the people in Wuji Palace. To me, it doesn't matter if she leaves or not, it's just a pawn to use It's worth less!"
No one can threaten the Xiangfu, and no one can threaten her, Zhao Wuyou.
She is unfettered and unfettered, so who can do anything to her?
Hanyin didn't come back, and stayed in the Chenghuang Temple all night, and didn't leave the capital either.
Either waiting for backup, or not knowing what to do.
Zhao Wuyou waited patiently, she had nothing else but to be patient.The palm prints on her face will eventually fade away, and she is still that suave and suave young man in white.
After dealing with the emperor's Taoism, now only the emperor's tour in micro-clothes is left.
This matter must not be sloppy at all, the palace is also quietly busy, and the sixth department dare not slack off.
Department of Education.
Zhao Wuyou sighed softly, and Hong Gu stepped forward to salute, "Your Excellency, is there something on your mind?"
"It's nothing, I just feel a little uneasy!" Zhao Wuyou fiddled with the jade token in his hand.
Hong Gu lowered her eyes, "Is your lord afraid that they will attack the emperor?"
"Isn't that what my aunt taught women? Women are the best weapons to men. They can kill people invisible, and they can defeat others without fighting. Throughout the ages, there are not a few people who are overwhelmed by countries. There is a concubine who loves Daxia, and later there is Baosi, who plays with the princes, and Farewell My Concubine Ai Hengchang." Zhao Wuyou leaned lazily on the soft couch, and slowly stroked the lines on the jade plaque with his fingertips, "Woman The power is the most terrifying."
"Your Excellency's words make this servant feel more important." Hong Gu sighed softly, "You are not in good health, so don't think about it. Those who are there are not, and if the sky falls, there will be tall ones to support them. no."
Zhao Wuyou nodded, "I also know that there is a prime minister's mansion above, but be prepared for danger in times of peace, otherwise sooner or later it will become someone else's prey. Recently, I discovered that someone is trying to get the Jiaofang Secretary's idea."
"How does your lord know?" Hong Gu was taken aback.
"These days are a bit strange. Every time I go out, there are more and more entertainers on the street. It's fine if I meet a market, but it's only when I go out. I have been observed for a while, since Fu Yuying entered After the palace, there is something wrong with the ten-mile long street in the capital." Zhao Wuyou narrowed his dangerous eyes, "They thought I didn't know, and they were still performing hard there."
Hong Gu was startled, "Your Excellency, be careful, if these people attack you, the consequences will be disastrous."
"If you want to do it, you've already done it, let alone—" Zhao Wuyou paused, "Do they dare to touch me? This is the capital city, not the small town at the foot of the mountain. This is my territory. I will let them die without a place to bury them before I lay hands on me."
Hong Gu nodded, "However, it's better to be careful."
"You should visit my mother more often if you have the chance!" Zhao Wuyou closed his eyebrows and took a nap.
"I haven't visited Madam for a long time." Hong Gu let out a long breath.
"My mother was frightened last time, and now I don't know what to do. I'm not allowed to enter the temple until the ninth day of the lunar new year. If you have time, go and see for me! Anyway, there are not many new recruits in the Jiaofang Division, so you can spare time." Zhao Wuyou closed his eyes and said.
"Yes!" Hong Gu saluted and exited cautiously.
Zhao Wuyou was a little flustered with exhaustion. These days, she started taking medicine again, and her body still couldn't stand the torment.In a daze, she began to dream again, dreaming that the whistle of the train, accompanied by the man at the window who kept waving his hands, quickly disappeared in front of her.
She chased the train, crying and shouting, "Brother, don't go...you are gone, what should I do?"
But the train is ruthless, and what it brings is either a reunion or a parting.
"Young Master?" It was Yunzheng's voice, "Young Master? Come quickly, and invite the doctor!"
Zhao Wuyou started to have a fever again, his consciousness was weak and he was in a trance.Her body was light and soft, and she felt like she was sitting on a cloud, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, just like sitting on an airplane, looking at the charming blue outside the window.
The same blue as the sea, so beautiful and beautiful.
She slept for two full days.
Inside the East Factory.
"Sick again?" Mu Baili frowned.
"Yes!" Lu Guoan saluted, "He has a fever for no reason."
Mu Baili frowned, "Has Shen Yan ever returned?"
"This meeting should start from there." Lu Guoan said, "Qianliju will take two days at the fastest."
Xia Donglou was deprived of his title, but there are many members of the Xia family in the imperial court, and now everyone is dissatisfied with the emperor's handling, and they have come forward to ask the emperor to restore Xia Donglou's duke position for the sake of the late emperor.
The emperor had soft ears and was a vacillating person.
But not everyone supports Xia Donglou's restoration, such as the Fang family.
Fang Luan is a member of Jinyiwei Qianhu. In the early years, he had some grievances with Zhong Mian, who was the military commander of the five cities, and then Zhong Mian quietly joined Xia Donglou.Although Xia Donglou has now lost power, and Zhao Wuyou has also taken away the post of commander of the Wucheng army and horses by Zhao Wuyou, he has always held a grudge against Zhao Wuyou and the Fang family.
Now that Xia Donglou has lost his favor, Fang Luan thought, taking advantage of this time to kill Zhong Mian.
But the premise is that Xia Donglou cannot be reset.
Once Xia Donglou was reset, he would be like a tiger pouncing flies on his head, courting death.
The Fang family and the party members of the Prime Minister's House began to refute the memorial to reset Xia's family, and some people watched the fire from the other side, thinking it was a fool's errand.Various forces began to argue, and no one gave in.
But at this time, Zhao Wuyou fell ill again.
The cabinet's booklet has been overwhelmed, and there is still no way to implement it.
Dongchang also began to mix up, and finally someone passed the cabinet and Dongchang, and directly sent the book to the imperial court.
The emperor felt a pain in his head, and Panxi sat on the futon frowning, "Daoist, what do you think I should do?"
Daoist Xu flicked his white beard lightly, "The emperor is the Ziwei star who came down to earth, everything is blessed by heaven, Sanqing is by his side, and he will protect my emperor's kingdom for ten thousand years."
But the emperor is very useful, this is a compliment that he is a star descending from heaven!
Want to be a fairy, can you not be happy?
"I can't slap myself in the face now. I have just punished Xia Donglou and then withdraw my life. Isn't this going back on my word?" The emperor was annoyed.
Daoist Xu said with a smile, "Your Majesty, mortals are vulgar. You are the Son of Heaven, so naturally you don't care about them like them."
Hearing this, the emperor threw the bag into the medicine shed, "Forget it, I pretend I didn't see it, and I will kill anyone who dares to block my way of seeking immortality and asking." While talking, Dan Suddenly the furnace shook.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" Daoist Xu was delighted, "The first furnace of longevity pills has been refined."
"Really?" The emperor got up all of a sudden, and ran to the alchemy furnace with great excitement, his face was full of surprises, "Is there hope for my immortality?"
Daoist Xu saluted, "Infinite Life Buddha, the emperor is a man appointed by God, it is indeed God's will!"
Opened the alchemy furnace, there were three red pills inside, and there was a thin white mist. At first glance, it really looked like that.
Concentrating on the palm of the hand, Daoist Xu urged the inner strength, the three pills slowly flew into the air, and slowly fell into the palm of Daoist Xu.The emperor's mind is full of immortality, cultivating immortals and Taoism, which will make him feel that the Tao is extremely long.
Look, this elixir is all spiritual.
Daoist Xu put the three elixirs into the brocade box he had prepared long ago, with extra care.Close the brocade box, and said in a long way, "This elixir needs to be placed in front of the golden statue of the Sanqing, and it can be taken with the rootless water after a day and a night of poor practice. Take one pill every ten days. Do not take more or less , Your Majesty must remember."
The emperor was extremely pious, "I understand, there is a way to do it."
"Infinite Life Buddha!" Daoist Xu let out a breath, and carefully placed the brocade box in front of the golden statue of Sanqing.
"Can the Taoist priest prepare more pills for me, what if I run out of them?" The emperor was inevitably worried.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, Pindao will always prepare pills for the Emperor, so that the Emperor will remain young and live forever." It doesn't take much effort to speak big words, just pretend to be serious.
The emperor believed it, and when he went out, he was so happy that he was going to live forever. How excited is this?It is even more exciting than when he ascended the throne as emperor, which shows that emperors are afraid of death.
Immortality is the dream of many people.
He did it!
After thinking about it, the emperor stared at Xiao Dezi, "Is it because I threw the booklet into the stove, so this pill was suddenly refined after receiving spiritual energy? Or is it because the heavens appreciate my piety and wholeheartedly devote myself to the Tao, so ..."
The emperor suddenly realized, "It must be like this! Go, bring those useless booklets to me, and give them to the Taoist priest for alchemy and medicine."
Xiao Dezi was taken aback for a moment, "Your Majesty, where can I get it?"
"Stupid, of course it's the imperial study. If it doesn't work, go to the cabinet, and the East Factory Supervisor. They must have a lot of papers to approve the red on my behalf." The emperor stroked his chin and fell into deep thought, "Sure enough, it's heaven. Great responsibility must put honesty first, and then seek benevolence and get benevolence."
"Yes!" Xiao Dezi ran away.
He hadn't heard of it yet, that the alchemy was too expensive, the emperor became more and more unreliable, and became more and more obsessed with cultivating Taoism.But since the emperor said it, he could only follow through, but this news... still had to be sent out.
The news went to Tingfeng Building.
Zhao Wuyou has already woken up, but he is still a little dazed.
Hearing the news from the palace that the emperor wanted to burn Zhezi to make alchemy, he immediately laughed, "Is this method thought up by Taoist Master Xu?"
Yunzheng shook her head, "I didn't say that, but it probably has something to do with Daoist Xu."
"This is much simpler and more effective than preventing the emperor from rejecting the booklet and restoring the Xia family, tearing it up on the bright side." Zhao Wuyou coughed twice, his face was paler than ordinary people.
Yunzheng brought the medicine bowl, "My lord, this servant has let the medicine cool down, it's ready to drink."
Zhao Wuyou nodded, picked up the medicine bowl and frowned again, "The medicine is too bitter, I really don't want to drink it."
"The servant has prepared sugar hawthorn for the young master. The sweet and sour taste is just like a bitter medicine." Yunzheng brought a small plate of hawthorn slices.
"Where do you get the hawthorn this season?" Zhao Wuyou looked up at her.
"Young master forgot, you also said this last year. The medicine is too bitter, and the candied fruit is too sweet. You don't like to eat it. It's better to eat hawthorn sour and sweet." Yunzheng smiled, "Slave servant So people quietly planted some in the south to see if they can be supplied all year round. Whoever imagined it, it really did happen!"
Zhao Wuyou smiled and said, "I just said it casually, but you took it to heart."
"Your servants will remember what you said, how dare you forget it." Yunzheng took a deep breath, "Young master, is it delicious?"
"Not bad." Zhao Wuyou handed out the empty medicine bowl with a smile.
Looking back at the pear tree outside the window, the pear blossoms have almost withered, and now the green leaves of the tree are slowly growing.In spring, the pear blossoms outshine the snow, in summer the leaves are full of shade, in autumn the trees are full of fruit, and in winter the yellow leaves are all gone, leaving only depression.
The scenery is different throughout the year, how beautiful it is to lean on the building and listen to the wind.
"Young master, what should we do about the zhezi?" Yunzheng returned to the main topic, "I can't burn all the zhezi! If this is the case, it will block the way of talking, and I am afraid that something will happen in the future."
Zhao Wuyou took a deep breath, "I'm in better health now, once the cabinet papers come up, let them read them quickly, and don't need to reply to irrelevant ones, it's okay to send them to be burned directly. Some important papers will be deducted on the spot, and then immediately Approval and report. The time is a little tight, but it's better than burning all the brains."
"Yes!" Yunzheng nodded, "I will let you know."
Zhao Wuyou coughed lightly, "By the way, is there any movement in the East Factory?" The ghostwriter approved the red, in addition to the cabinet and Mu Baili, she hurriedly approved the document here, and Mu Baili didn't know what action would be taken.
Yunzheng shook her head, "Dongchang's mouth is always the tightest, so I didn't find out anything. It's just that some time ago, someone saw Shen Yan from Dongchang's thousand households leaving the capital, riding lightly, and I don't know where he went. "
"Shen Yan is Mu Baili's confidant, unless there is some urgent business, and Mu Baili is unwilling to accept others, he will let Shen Yan go out of Beijing." Zhao Wuyou frowned, "Send someone to check, Shen Yan Where did Yan go?"
"Young master wants to investigate the matter of Dongchang?" Yunzheng hesitated, "Master Xiang didn't come back, if he angered those eunuchs in Dongchang..."
"It's not the first time to provoke him. One more time is not too much, and one less time is quite a lot." Zhao Wuyou remembered the bathing incident that night, and the anger in his belly rushed to his forehead.
Who said eunuchs don't like things between men and women, in her opinion, Mu Baili's eunuch is purely the kind with unclean six roots.
Eunuch the body, forget to eunuch the heart.
Since ancient times, history books have recorded that the eunuchs should be the first to bear the brunt of the dirty palace.
The next day, at dawn, the cabinet immediately sent the irrelevant documents to the palace for the emperor to burn for alchemy.The same is true of Dongchang, but there is a silent tacit understanding, and they all send the booklets early to please the emperor.
Of course the emperor is happy, if you ministers agree with me in seeking immortality, then I can burn zhezi, refine alchemy, and live forever.
The emperor devoted himself to immortality, so he naturally neglected the harem.After several days of not being favored by others, the harem began to move around, and the women began to wonder whether they could snatch the emperor here while no one favored them.
In Kunning Palace.
"The concubine sees the empress!" Xia Lan knelt respectfully, still in the original docile and respectful attitude.
"Get up!" The queen seemed a little out of spirits, and Jingyi rubbed her temples for the queen.
Xia Lan stood up and stepped forward with a smile.
Jingyi retreated knowingly and let Xia Lan take her place.
"Your Majesty is not feeling well, do you want to invite the imperial physician over?" Xia Lan asked in a low voice.
The queen closed her eyes, leaning on the soft couch and enjoying Xia Lan's service, "What are you looking at? These imperial physicians are full of wine bags and rice bags, and it seems that they are so virtuous. This old problem of this palace has been around for a long time, and there is nothing wrong with it." of."
Xia Lan nodded, "The concubine will come to serve the empress every day until the empress is in good health."
"I am very happy if you have this kind of heart." The queen opened her eyes slightly, "Your father's matter will not implicate you, you can rest assured."
"Father offended the emperor abruptly, so he really should be punished. But father is old, how can he stand up to this punishment, and now my concubine is in the palace, I don't know what happened to my father..." As he spoke, he burst into tears, " Elder sister was punished, and she was restrained and unable to escape, and now this kind of thing happened again. Madam, my concubine is really helpless, I hope you can save my concubine and father's life!"
After saying that, Xia Lan knelt down with a plop.
The queen frowned, "Get up, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, it's not like you don't know."
"My lady, my concubine knows that the harem is not allowed to do politics, so I dare not make an exception for the empress, but..." Xia Lan pursed her lips and lowered her head, "The concubine received a message from my sister a few days ago, saying that... my sister has Pregnant. Concubine, concubine thinking, advise elder sister to work with concubine to serve empress well. I don’t know, empress, you..."
She spoke tremblingly, how cautiously.
"What did you say?" The queen sat up suddenly, "You mean, your sister is pregnant?"
"Yes!" Xia Lan knelt down on the ground, "Your Majesty, my concubine dare not lie."
The queen let out a long breath, lowered her eyebrows and looked at her lower abdomen.It is a dereliction of duty for the queen to have been in the palace for many years without a son and a half, and it is the greatest regret for a woman.
"Your sister's temper is too impatient, I'm afraid I can't do anything about it." Xia Qiongzhi was arrogant and domineering at the beginning, although she was stunningly stunning, she was too sharp in the end.The queen doesn't like women who are too flamboyant. After all, these people exist to weaken her queen's status and favor.
"Empress!" Xia Lan burst into tears, "The concubine must persuade my sister, she already knew she was wrong, and she has changed a lot. The concubine can guarantee her life. In the future, we two sisters will only follow the empress, never I will disobey my mother in the slightest. My mother, my concubine swears, if I break this oath, the sky will strike me with lightning. Your mother!"
The queen hesitated a bit, and made the oath, which logically should be trusted.
Can……
"Your Majesty, my concubine can listen to her whatever she wants, and my whole Xia family can serve her. Madam, please help my concubine's sister!" Xia Lan burst into tears, "My Majesty, Fu Jieyu If she gives birth to a son and the harem has no children, her son will be the crown prince."
In a word, the heart is full of blood.
If Fu Yuying gave birth to a son for the emperor, then judging from Fu Yuying's current favored situation, her son is very likely to be the best candidate for the crown prince.
In the sleeves, the five fingers curled up, and the queen sighed, "I will give it a try, but you'd better remember the oath you made."
"Thank you, empress!" Xia Lan wept, "I will remember this concubine in my heart. I thank empress for her kindness on behalf of my sister."
After leaving Kunning Palace, Xia Lan went directly to Xia Qiongzhi's place.
Xia Qiongzhi had her title lowered and was grounded back then, so life is very sad now.Although she is the eldest daughter of the Xia family, she entered this harem only because of the emperor's favor, without which she cannot live.
Seeing these women fall out of favor, the eunuchs began to domineering and trampled people under their feet.
The harem is where all the cold places in the world are.
"How can this kind of thing be eaten by the master?" Huandong threw the bowls and chopsticks in his hand on the ground, his face was full of anger, "you are really snobs, and when you saw the master fell out of favor, you climbed up your head one by one. You Wait, one day, sooner or later, when the master returns to the emperor, he will skin your dogs one by one!"
The eunuch sneered, "Go back? The Duke's Mansion is gone now, can you go back to the emperor?"
Huandong's anger didn't strike a single point, "Don't talk nonsense."
"The emperor has deprived the Duke of the country of his title. Everyone knows about it. Why are you talking nonsense?" The eunuch looked coldly at Xia Qiongzhi, who was standing at the door of the bedroom, trembling with anger.
Xia Qiongzhi held back the fire in her chest. Now she is in this harem, suffering all kinds of abuse.Thinking back to when I was in the Duke's Mansion back then, it was like the wind and the rain. Who knew that in the harem, even a eunuch trampled himself underfoot.
Not to mention skipping meals, you have to support yourself.
She doesn't touch Yang Chunshui with her ten fingers, where has she ever done this, from the initial rage to the current reticence, it can be seen that she has suffered a lot.Looking at the bowl of rough yellow rice on the ground, it was probably another overnight meal.
Silently, Xia Qiongzhi stepped forward slowly, "Okay, Huandong, stop talking."
"Master, has he ever suffered such pain?" Huandong was so angry that tears rolled down his face, "These snobs are simply too hateful."
"It's okay!" Xia Qiongzhi turned around and went to the backyard.
Xia Lan's voice came from the small door in the backyard, "Sister?"
Xia Qiongzhi hurried forward, and Huandong stood in the corridor to keep out the wind so as not to be seen.
"Sister." Xia Qiongzhi almost cried.
"Sister, don't worry, you'll be fine soon. I've already begged the empress, and I'm sure you'll be released soon. Sister, you have to be patient. Our Xia family depends on you and me." Xia Lan choked up, "Sister, the Duke's Mansion is gone."
Xia Qiongzhi lowered her eyes and burst into tears, "It's all my fault that I was too self-willed earlier and forgot that this is the palace, not the Duke's mansion. Now I'm doing it on my own, thanks to you, otherwise I'm afraid I'm going to end up here for the rest of my life." .”
"Sister, don't worry, you'll be out soon." Xia Lan burst into tears.
"Okay!" Xia Qiongzhi nodded.
As long as she goes out, as long as she can go out, she can suffer any hardship and suffer any crime.She's had enough of this dark place.She will take back those humiliations and tramples one by one in the future.
Zhao Wuyou, Fu Yuying, let's wait and see.
Although the emperor asked about it, he was very happy when he heard that Xia Qiongzhi was pregnant.After all, the emperor's harem didn't have many heirs. There were several princesses, but they never had a son.
The emperor is not young anymore, if it is time to establish an emperor's heir in the future, it is absolutely impossible to have no son.
But at the beginning, Xia Qiongzhi was put under house arrest because she made a mistake. What should she do now to prevent her favorite minister from being chilled or opposed?
Ever since the empress mentioned this matter, the emperor hesitated a little. Although the emperor's heir was the most important thing, he could still raise a baby if he stayed there, so it was still difficult for Xia Qiongzhi to come out.
The emperor walked into Lianhua Palace with some embarrassment, and looked at Fu Yuying who was rolling up her sleeves and pruning flowers and branches in the courtyard.
Fu Yuying didn't expect the emperor to come over, she hastily put down the scissors and saluted, "The concubine sees the emperor!"
"Why don't you do such rough things yourself." The emperor supported her, "You are still pregnant, so you have to be careful."
"The concubine has nothing to do, just want to pass the time!" Fu Yuying smiled, and she could see the emperor's hesitation at a glance, "I heard that the emperor has refined the immortality pill, congratulations to the emperor Congratulations to the emperor."
When the emperor heard this, he immediately smiled, "After all, it is Qing who understands my heart best."
"Concubines are the emperor's people, so they naturally want to share their worries and labors with the emperor, and share their joy with the emperor." Fu Yuying had something to say.
"That—" the emperor hesitated, "You are usually the smartest and the most favored by me. Actually, I have a problem and I don't know how to deal with it. Why don't you and I come up with an idea?"
Fu Yuying smiled and said, "Please tell me, Your Majesty."
"The Xia Zhaoyi from earlier was a daughter of the Xia family, and now she is pregnant." When the emperor said this, his gaze fell on Fu Yuying's face.
Fu Yuying kept smiling, and when she heard this, she even laughed out loud, "Is this the emperor's reason?"
"She made a mistake at the beginning, and I punished her to ground her feet. Now that she picks it up, isn't it a bit of a backlash? Do you want to discuss it with the ministers?" How could Fu Yuying not know what the emperor was worried about.
"Your majesty!" Fu Yuying sat down with the emperor, "This is not a back-and-forth, it's for the sake of Daye's heir. In the final analysis, it is actually the emperor's housework. Household matters cannot be compared with those of the previous dynasty. The ministers discuss it. Look at your ministers, who has brought the family affairs to the Golden Luan Hall?"
The emperor felt that it made sense.
Fu Yuying continued, "If the emperor is afraid of objections from the previous court, after all, she is the daughter of the Xia family, so there is a compromise."
"What way?" The emperor asked hurriedly.
"Your Majesty can let her out and restore her original position, she will still be Zhaoyi. After the child is born, if she is a son of the Emperor, then the Emperor will promote her to her position. I am afraid that your lords will have nothing to say." Fu Yuyingshan Understand people's meaning, every sentence speaks to the emperor's heart.
The emperor felt relieved, "This is a good idea!" He hugged Fu Yuying horizontally like a child, and turned around on the spot, "It really is Zhen's Xie Yuhua, a good idea, I will do it according to Qing's wishes!"
"Your Majesty, don't tell Xia Zhaoyi that it was the concubine's idea." Fu Yuying sighed softly.
The emperor was puzzled, "Why?"
Fu Yuying put her arms around the emperor's neck, and the emperor sat down slowly, putting her on his lap.Fu Yuying said in a low voice, "The concubine is also pregnant, but her status is higher than that of Xia Zhaoyi. If she knows that it was my idea, in the future..."
Everyone knew that Xia Qiongzhi was arrogant and domineering back then.So Fu Yuying was afraid, and it was justified.
The emperor frowned, "Just don't worry, even though she has come out, if she still acts recklessly and dares to hurt you, I will never forgive you lightly."
If she got the pardon, Fu Yuying saluted on the ground, "I thank the emperor, my concubine."
The emperor would do things like this, the queen would naturally not say anything, all she wanted was a child.Xia Qiongzhi didn't even dare to say anything. Being able to take the child out of the gate of confinement was already a great grace of the emperor.
After so many days of despair, she finally saw hope in life.
Also because of this, she understands better what is the value of mother and child.
In the harem, as long as you have a son, you can win many things.
Xia Lan waited outside, "Sister, you finally came out."
Xia Qiongzhi became thin, silent and reticent.Seeing Xia Lan, although she shed tears, she didn't say anything more.Glancing at the emperor sitting on the sedan chair, Xia Qiongzhi knelt down respectfully, "My concubine thanks the emperor for his grace, long live my emperor, long live long live long live."
That bright lady back then, the sharp-edged woman, finally restrained her brilliance, and lost a lot of vigor.
The emperor took a deep breath, "Take care of it well so that you can take care of yourself."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xia Qiongzhi still knelt down, until the emperor's chariot gradually moved away, then she stood up and raised her eyes.
In the eyes, there is no warmth.
