I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 297
"Today's affairs must be completed on the same day, otherwise today will be overwhelmed by tomorrow, and tomorrow will be overwhelmed by the day after tomorrow. There will be more and more things, and it will be difficult to find a clue if you try to deal with them properly." Qu Lingxu took a sip of the milk tea in Yunyi's hand, Seeing that the other party was always looking at me worriedly, he said with a faint smile, "Don't worry, it's just consuming a few brain cells, I have the right to relieve my boredom, I've been locked up by you and lying in the inner hall every day, if I don't have anything to do Do it, it's really going to grow hair."

"Master said lightly, you have just had a miscarriage, and it is time for you to take a good rest. The servant girl heard from the old mother that this confinement is more important than the confinement. If there is any root cause of the disease, I am afraid it will still affect you. Get pregnant in the future." Yun Xin tried to persuade Qu Lingxu while giving Qu Lingxu a massage.

"What nonsense, the master is in good health, how could he fall into the root cause of the disease." In order not to keep the child, Qu Lingxu wept secretly more than once, Yun Yi was worried that the word 'miscarriage' would irritate her again, so she blamed Yun Take a look.

Fortunately, Qu Lingxu was not as sensitive as Yun Yi thought, but smiled at her and said, "Look, there are quite a few people who don't understand at a young age, it can be seen that they are about to get married, and their thoughts are much more delicate than before. .”

Regardless of personal safety, Fang Bo went deep into the isolation area to treat the people infected with the plague, and made a particularly important contribution to the effective control of the plague in the capital. She also personally proposed marriage for him to Yun Yi, and she will only wait for a good day and auspicious day to get married after the next year.

No matter how bright and lively Yun Xin's personality is, she is still just a little girl who has not left the court. Hearing Qu Lingxu's teasing, her cute little face flushed with shame, and she stomped her feet angrily: "This servant is kind enough to think of the master. , but the master makes fun of the slaves, what is the reason for this?"

"Master, look, this girl's face is getting thinner and thinner. During the day, several palace people talked about Vice President Fang's good hands and kindness. It was just chatting, but this girl blushed after only listening to a few words." , I will not let everyone talk any more." Yun Yi took the teacup and agreed with a smile.

Yun Xin listened carefully at first, but finally realized that Yun Yi was teasing herself, and couldn't help being ashamed and annoyed, "Sister, even you laughed at me with the master, you are all bad people, I... I will ignore you !"

After all, he picked up the empty teacup on the table and 'run away'.

Seeing Yun Xin lowering her head blindly, not even noticing that she was about to hit the door, Qu Lingxu couldn't help but reminded: "Be careful, if you hurt your head, you have to go to the Imperial Hospital to bandage it. Fang Bo should be injured by then." It's my fault for not taking good care of you."

"Master, this slave will never talk to you again!"

Yun Yi has a stable personality, she teased Yun Xin before, but she just wanted to make Qu Lingxu happy, but now she suppressed her smile, bent her knees and said seriously: "Princess Fang is a valuable character, and she is worthy of being entrusted to her for life. Yun Xin can have such a good home, thanks to the master's plan for her, and the whole family of servants and servants will remember the master's great kindness and virtue, and they will never forget it."

"Okay, let's talk about this again, my ears are callused." Qu Lingxu leaned over to help Yunyi up, and said with a smile: "Although I have brothers and sisters, I have been bullied by them since I was a child." , I didn’t feel the warmth of being cared for until I met you, you have treated me with loyalty, so I will naturally plan more for you.”

During the days when she was infected with the plague, Yun Yi stayed by her side every step of the way. Yun Xin chanted scriptures and prayed for blessings in the Buddhist hall for many days, barely a drop of rice was eaten, and the whole person was thin and thin. Qu Lingxu naturally did not appreciate this friendship. will forget.

"The servant was able to escape from the sea of ​​suffering because of the protection of the master, so he should be smashed to pieces to serve the master." Yun Yi knelt down solemnly again, and said every word.

"Okay, what are you saying that is so inauspicious that your body will be smashed to pieces, but you sincerely want me to be angry?" Qu Lingxu pretended to be displeased and blamed, and then couldn't help laughing: "I have already seen that you are very angry with Qing." Yang intends, Qing Yang is the emperor's confidant, and he will naturally be entrusted with important tasks in the future, you will definitely not suffer if you follow him, when he returns triumphantly this time, I will ask the emperor to order a marriage, how about it?"

Qu Lingxu has always observed people in a subtle way, so naturally he would not misunderstand Yun Yi's thoughts. Yun Yi is not as shy as Yun Xin. Although she is a little embarrassed, she still blushes and nods to admit it, then sighs softly. : "General Qing Yang is young and promising, and he will definitely become a pillar of the imperial court in the future. The servants and servants come from humble backgrounds, so I'm afraid they won't be worthy of the general."

On Qing Yang's terms, without Qu Lingxu's interference, Leng Yuanxun would very likely point him to a famous lady, and it would be his turn to never be able to.

If Qing Yang felt wronged in his heart, and had to accept himself because of Qu Lingxu's face, then... he couldn't be so selfish.

"The emperor and this palace value character more than family status." Seeing that Yun Yi's brows were always sad, Qu Lingxu no longer played tricks, just patted each other's hand, and explained: "Okay, you are so pitiful For the sake of this, I will tell you the truth, the emperor asked Qing Yang about his thoughts earlier, and he... just happens to be interested in you."

Qu Lingxu is also a modern person who has been educated in the idea of ​​freedom and equality, how could he rashly point out marriage without asking the opinions of the parties, but he has been hiding it from Yunyi.

Yun Yi never thought that Qu Lingxu would say these words, she was overwhelmed with surprise and couldn't help being stunned for a while before she came to her senses, "Master...you are telling the truth?"

For a long time, although Qing Yang took good care of Yun Yi, he did not show any obvious attitude. That's why Yun Yi felt that the other party had no intention of treating her. Unexpectedly...

unexpected surprise.

"I'm the queen, so how can I lie to you?" Seeing Yun Yi's happy smile, Qu Lingxu also smiled gratifiedly.

I hope, I hope everything goes well ahead, Leng Yuanxun and Qing Yang can return to Beijing as soon as possible.

However, the war in Jiangnan is not optimistic.

Yun Yi also failed to wait for her sweetheart back as she wished.

Of course, this is all for later.Right now, Qu Lingxu has not received any report on the battle ahead, but there is a major issue in the capital that must be resolved as soon as possible.

In other words, since the court mutiny that day and Leng Yuanxun successfully took control of the political power, the former emperor, empress dowager, concubine and others were placed in the Beiyuan circle and imprisoned together.Logically speaking, the mother and son of the empress dowager who killed the first emperor and the first prince's family to seek power and usurp the throne should be sentenced to death. However, the grievances of the previous generation have gradually dissipated in the long river of history.
Therefore, after discussing with Marquis Huaiyang, Leng Yuanxun Qu Lingxu decided to save their lives, and they will only be confined in the clan mansion for life, and they will not be buried in the royal cemetery after death. Dismissed from the palace, to fend for himself.

Throughout the ages, which palace coup was not accompanied by bone-destroying bloody killings, it can be regarded as the best ending if it can be ended in such a gentle way, but there is still a thorny problem left, that is, the resettlement of Zhongyonghou's family.

Yes, it's the Rongsheng family.

Undoubtedly, Mrs. Zhongyonghou and Princess Anle were insiders of the disaster that destroyed their family back then, but they were not participants, but like most people, they only got a glimpse of the truth after the event was finalized.

It stands to reason that Princess Anle is the Queen Mother's biological daughter. The Zhongyonghou clan has been brave for generations. They have high prestige both in the court and in the army. They should be the emperor's first help in seeking power and success. But they But gave up, why?

Because the people in the Zhongyonghou Mansion headed by the old lady are just like the titles given to them by the Emperor Taizu. be opposed to.

Therefore, concealing it for as long as possible is the most correct choice.

Mrs. Zhongyonghou has been following the late Lord Hou on the battlefield for many years. She is not a brainless person. She had doubts as early as when the emperor made his high-sounding statements public, and then deduced all the truth, but deduced So what if the first prince dies and the new king ascends the throne, everything is a foregone conclusion, what can they do with their family alone?
What's more, Princess Anle is still her most valued eldest daughter-in-law.

That's all, that's all!
Although it has never been mentioned in front of people, this depression that has been suppressed in the heart of Mrs. Zhongyonghou for many years has never dissipated. Because of her shame, when she was seriously ill and knew that her fate was not long, she personally wrote to the emperor, saying I have no morals and incompetence, and after death, I dare not be buried with Mrs. Hou's grand ceremony, nor do I dare to ask for any posthumous title from the court. I only hope to be buried in the mausoleum with the loyal and brave old Lord Hou as a commoner.

At that time, Leng Yuanxun hadn't seized his heir, and there was no news in Beijing. From the emperor to the officials and common people, even Princess An Le and Rong Sheng were amazed.

No virtue?inability?
In terms of talent and virtue, looking at all the dukes and earls' mansions, the old lady Zhongyonghou deserved to be the first. Why did she lower her status so much and let herself be dishonored behind her?
The emperor was also puzzled, but Mrs. Zhongyonghou insisted on this, so she had no choice but to let her go.

Others don't know the reason, but Leng Yuanxun and others guessed it. Therefore, in this accident, the Zhongyonghou Mansion was not involved at all from the beginning to the end. I heard that the old lady was getting seriously ill, and Qu Lingxu had long been interested. Early visits, but she herself had just recovered from a serious illness and experienced the pain of miscarriage and loss of a child. Until now, she was a little free, so she went quietly to Zhongyonghou's mansion.

"Master, why do you have to come to visit the old lady, but for the sake of Rong Sheng?" In the carriage, Yun Yi hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't help asking the question in her heart.

Qu Lingxu didn't have any friendship with Mrs. Zhongyonghou, and as far as that matter was concerned, she was indebted to the former crown prince after all. It would be considered a privilege not to implicate them and punish them. There was really no need to make this trip in person.

"No one can live without making mistakes, so why be too harsh."
