morning thoughts

As soon as the empress came in, Concubine De's expression changed, and when she raised her head, she and the general understood each other.

The queen came here at this time because she knew about the prince. It turned out that the people around the prince had been waiting outside the palace. Although they couldn't hear what was going on inside, the general and concubine De were there, and the slave thought something was wrong. signs of coming.

Looking for an excuse, he went to the queen to invite someone. The queen naturally wanted to ask clearly when she heard that King Rong An was involved.

"Mother..." The prince turned sideways to salute the queen, with a little light in his eyes, he said, "Mother's health is not good, why did you come here suddenly?"

The queen only glanced at him, nodded and sat on the bedside, took out a handkerchief and wiped off the blood stains on the corner of the emperor's mouth, then helped him, and said softly: "The concubine heard that your majesty is because of King Rong'an The matter moved the atmosphere."

"Go and ask your good prince, what he has done!" The emperor continued angrily, pointing at the prince's chest heaving.

The prince raised his head angrily, and said sadly: "Father! Although I have been a prince these years, I have never secretly formed a party or colluded with courtiers. I have always been cautious in my words and deeds. My son is already a prince, so why is it necessary?" to do these?"

The emperor looked at the prince for a long time, and said: "You think that if you don't show up to the courtiers, you are not friends with him? You are already a prince but you don't know how to be satisfied. Your brothers and sisters dare to kill you. What virtue do you have and how can you stay in the position of the prince!"

The emperor couldn't stop coughing after saying these words.

"I thought that after I died, the Great Jin Dynasty would belong to you, and I would turn a blind eye to what you did," the emperor scolded, "But do you really think I'm a fool? ?”

Both Concubine De and the General could hear that the Emperor had moved the idea of ​​abolishing the Crown Prince, or it was more than that, so they couldn't wait for the result.

"Your Majesty, the concubine has nothing to ask for the rest of her life. I only hope that your majesty can let our Yu'er go away with peace of mind because the concubine has served you for more than ten years!"

Concubine De's complexion was not good, the emperor couldn't bear to criticize her when he saw her at this time, his palms and backs were covered with flesh, he raised his hand to signal Concubine De to stand up.

The prince is not benevolent, harming his brother to do such an unrighteous act is really against the demeanor of a benevolent monarch. The emperor knew that he would not be able to protect the prince, so he said: "The East Palace is immoral..."

"His Majesty!"

The queen got up, straightened her clothes and knelt down in front of him. The emperor's eyes flickered, and he shouted, "Queen! What are you going to do?"

The empresses before and after have always been self-denying and dignified, and even the smile on their faces seems to have been reproduced, but at this moment, there is a different expression on the face that has not changed for thousands of years.

She stared at Concubine De, the hatred in her eyes caused Concubine De to involuntarily take two steps back, after a cold snort, when she walked up to the Prince, her expression was as loving as ever, and she raised her hand to caress the Crown Prince's hair , was actually a little bit reluctant.

"Mother, son..."

The queen's expression changed suddenly, and she cursed angrily: "Trash!"

The prince's words were interrupted by the queen, and he looked straight at the queen in surprise, but saw the queen raised his hand and slapped himself, the hotness on his face was not as hot as the surprise in his heart.

The queen raised her eyebrows and looked at the prince: "It's a waste of my palace to plan so much for you, but you can't even deal with these people." She raised her hand and lifted the prince's collar, and sneered: "What brothers and sisters are respectful? Do you think Ling Didn't Yu have any intention of harming you? How can I make you lose to Ling Yu with all my plans for you? The general's appearance here today is just because of a bad move, right?"

The hall was silent.

Everyone gasped, they could never have imagined that the queen would say such a thing.

The queen raised her eyes, and the unwillingness in her eyes was undoubtedly revealed, which happened to fall into the eyes of the emperor.

"Dexi is the person my concubine arranged to be by Ling Yu's side. It's no wonder that the concubine's carelessness allowed that dog slave to have a chance to contact the prince. As for the gold stone medicine, it was my concubine who instructed him to do so. After all, Dexi was nothing but It’s a slave, it’s possible that I didn’t figure it out for a while.”

The queen spoke calmly, but the others couldn't sit still.

"Empress, being a concubine with a mother's heart is understandable, but if you forcibly accuse the prince of these crimes, you will make us all fools?" Concubine De said anxiously.

The queen sneered a few times, looked at the crowd, and said: "I hope that these are all done by the prince. It would not be in vain to teach him all these years. Your Majesty's previous expansion of the prince's collusion with courtiers is also a mistake." Don't His Majesty know what the concubine's idea is?"

"Your Majesty's heirs are meager, and there are not many adult princes. How can Ling Yu and concubines who are about the same age as the prince not guard against it?"

The royal family attaches great importance to children, not to mention that when there are not many children, the empress took care of the emperor's concerns and took on all these things.

Now that this situation has been reached, what else can the emperor say, and he said with a pale face: "The empress is persistent and resentful, has repeatedly violated the edict, harmed the emperor's heir, and formed a party for personal gain. Within the palace, there is neither the virtue of Ju, nor the posture of teaching, how can it be possible?" Entrusted to the young orphan, he respectfully accepted the Ming sacrifice, and then took back the empress's jade seal, and confines him in the palace pavilion unless he dies."

"Most sinful women plan for the prince, deliberately making a big mistake, and the prince is also unforgivable. They want to abolish the position of the prince and take back the power to supervise the country."

The prince's face turned pale, but he managed to save his life.

But Concubine De couldn't kill the prince, and her resentment remained undiminished, but the general saw that the biggest concession the emperor could make was this, and retreated outside together with Concubine De.

The queen was sent back to her own palace for confinement, and the prince rushed over before the palace gate was locked.

"Eunuch, please do me a favor."

While talking, the prince stuffed things into the father-in-law's hands, but the father-in-law declined and said: "Too... the eldest prince, hurry up, don't make things difficult for the servant, the servant will go to the side to guard."

The prince nodded repeatedly, raised his foot to catch up with the queen, and shouted: "Mother..."

The queen turned and stared at the prince...

"Now that I am a waste body, the First Prince shouldn't lose his manners and call me Queen Mother!"

Hearing this, the prince felt his face was on fire, his eyes were sore, he knelt down at the queen's feet with a plop, and said with tears in his eyes, "It's my son's minister who is useless, and I've hurt the queen!"

The queen smiled, helped him up, gently stroked the prince's cheek with her warm hand, and said comfortingly: "Killing your brother, forming a party for personal gain, and many other crimes that your father didn't say, once they are committed to you Everything is fatal, it is worth using my life to save yours!"

"Mother, you wait for your son to make a comeback, and you must take the mother out from here in a good manner."

The queen smiled lightly and was speechless, the prince held back his tears and wanted to say something more, but was pushed away by the queen.

"Go back," the queen said softly, "don't come here again, if you miss your mother, then bow in this direction, assuming that you have fulfilled your filial piety, I will walk the rest of the way back by myself."

The prince was kicked out, and the servant who was in charge of sealing the palace tremblingly locked the palace gate, and then went back to return after seeing the prince.

The prince stood in front of the forbidden palace gate, gritted his teeth hard, and his cheeks bulged.

Finally, he punched the wall as if venting, leaving a trail of blood.

Ji Yu came out from Concubine Shu's palace, happened to see this scene, walked up to him, only looked at the wet blood on the wall and shook his head.

Coincidentally, when he was leaving the palace, he met the general again, one with a worried face and the other with a slight smile.

Standing beside the general, Ji Yu smiled presumptuously and said, "Congratulations, general!"

The general said coldly: "My son, don't deceive others too much!"

The general was stared at by Ji Yu for a while, and his heart was very irritable. Just when he was about to attack, he heard Ji Yu say: "It seems that I was wrong about the general, thinking that the general not only brought down the prince today, You should be happy to have found someone who is your back again."

The general's eyes froze, he grabbed Ji Yu's arm, and asked in a low voice, "What do you mean by that?"

Ji Yu gasped, moved his arm away, and saw the general staring at him fiercely, raised his eyebrows slightly: "The general is like this, how dare I say it?"

"Stop cheating with me!"

"How about the general invite me to visit the mansion?" Ji Yu asked with a smile.

The general looked at Ji Yu with pity, and said, "Aren't you afraid that if you come to my mansion, you will never return?"

"Are you going or not going back?" Ji Yu raised his eyebrows, "At the foot of the Son of Heaven, Huajing is an important place, so many people have nothing to be afraid of when they see me entering the mansion with the general!"

The general pondered for a moment, and took the lead to get on the horse. Ji Yu smiled and got into the carriage, and ordered: "Follow the general's horse, and let's go to the general's mansion to take guests."

When they arrived at the general's mansion, the servants brought tea up, and the general directly took the tea and downed it in one gulp.

After finishing drinking, he wiped off the beard around his mouth and looked at Ji Yu, and said, "There is no one else here, so you can clarify what the son said."

The general has always been hostile to Ji Yu for no other reason, one is because of Ling Yu, and the other is because of King Annan.

No matter how domineering and slow the general was, Ji Yu always had a smile on his face. He took the tea bowl from his hand and glanced at the general, "The general is really in a hurry."

"Since that's the case, I won't fight dumb with the general anymore." Putting the tea bowl on the table, he said, "The prince must hold a grudge for being pulled down by the general and concubine De, and I'm afraid he will remember the general in the future. "

"joke!"

Ji Yu stared at the general, his gaze sank, and said, "I don't know how the general got Ji Xiu, but the general has heard that Ji Xiu is mine."

The general stood up suddenly, "How is that possible!"

After a long while, the general fell back to his seat, and there was still something he didn’t understand. Ji Xiu was nothing. If Ji Yu dared to speak out to himself, it meant that he must have more than this bit of evidence in his hand. Next, it doesn't matter who Ji Xiu is or the prince's person.

The general lowered his head and sat on the chair. When he raised his head again, he stared at Ji Yu, his eyes were red with murderous intent.

Ji Yu looked at him expressionlessly, and said unhurriedly: "I understand the general's ruthlessness. Concubine De and the general come from the same line, and they are really similar."

The author has something to say: the abolished imperial edict was revised according to the edict issued by Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu when he abolished Queen Guo~~
