[Qing Chuan] Mu Emperor's Grace

Hongli returned to the palace with a heavy heart. As soon as he sat down, someone from Shoukang Palace came, saying that Lafayette invited the emperor to the palace to talk.

In Shoukang Palace, Lafayette was smiling happily. When he saw Hongli entering the door, he hurriedly greeted him.

Only then did Hongli realize that Yongzheng was actually standing beside the queen mother, looking at him with awe and anticipation.

"My son pays respects to the Queen Mother." Hongli saluted Lafayette.

The Empress Dowager appeared to be in a very good mood, and said several times: "Okay, okay...get up." She patted Yongzheng's hand as she spoke.

Seeing Hongli's probing eyes cast on him, Yongzhen hurriedly knelt down and said, "I send my regards to Huang Ama."

"Get up." Hongli sat down at the side, and asked with a smile: "What happy things happened to the Queen's mother, and let my ministers be happy together."

"It was Yongzhen who said that the autumn chrysanthemums in Qingyi Garden bloomed very beautifully this year. Aijia thought, if it goes with the scenery of the lake and mountains, it will be perfect."

Hongli glanced at Yongzheng, saw that he was still hanging his head, and said with a light smile: "What the queen mother said is that the autumn chrysanthemums are in full bloom, and the date is just in time for the emperor's mother's birthday. According to Erchen, it is just now During the Qianqiu Festival, the princes and ministers will gather in Qingyi Garden. How about enjoying the chrysanthemum together and celebrating the birthday of the empress?"

"Okay..." Lafayette said with a smile: "You are also a person who is good at coaxing people. The Ai family sees that Yongxin is a good boy. You are busy with things and don't often go to the queen. Yongxin can't see you easily. , I also miss it very much. The Ai family is getting old, and I want to keep my grandson by my side to talk. It happens that you come to the Ai family every day to sit and sit, and the father and son can see each other more often."

Hongli was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly nodded and said, "It's his blessing that Yongzheng can serve by the side of the empress's mother, and this son-in-law also has this intention."

Lafayette picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, the smile on his face gradually subsided: "Ai's family is getting old, so I don't have anything else to think about, it's just that this harem is the emperor's resting place, and harmony can only be achieved." Good. The queen is a good boy, so don't be too partial to one another."

Hongli nodded, and changed the topic at the right time: "Emperor Niang, I told someone from the Prince's Mansion that Hong Zhou was ill. My son went to see him, and he looked not very well. The imperial doctor said, the worst I can't survive this winter."

The Empress Dowager was startled, sighed softly, and said in a trembling voice: "This kid Hongzhou looks easy to talk on the surface. When he was young, he would agree to whatever you said, but he was a hard-headed person on the inside. He had the right idea, and his forehead Concubine Niang Yu looks exactly the same. I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, so many years have passed, and now..."

Hongli was sad, no one in the room spoke for a while, and suddenly he heard a soft voice saying: "Grandmother, you once told me that when a person passes away, he will turn into a star in the sky, so that people who stay in the world The relatives in the world saw his traces, so our relatives will not leave. When we miss them, we only need to raise our eyes to see them."

Hongli raised his eyes in surprise, only to see Yongzheng holding Lafayette by his arm, and his attentive appearance made his heart move.

But in an instant, he frowned again, looking at Yong Xin with doubt and inquiry.

He Shen has been the editor of the Hanlin Academy for more than a month.The so-called editing is mainly responsible for the drafting of edicts and the revision of historical books on a daily basis, and occasionally lectures on scriptures and history with the emperor, and reads them by the side.

On this day, it happened to be Heshen's turn to be on duty. He stood by Hongli's side and turned the "Tongjian of Qualifications" to the mark of the previous Hanlin, and he saw a passage in "Tang Ji".

He Shen raised his eyes to look at Hongli, who was splashing ink, and said hesitantly: "Establishing a lineage is a long way, and etiquette is upright. However, the emperor Gaozu has the world, it is all the work of Taizong; the hidden prince is mediocre and inferior, If the earth suspects that the power is strong, it will not be compatible. Let Gaozu have the wisdom of King Wen, the hidden prince has the sage of Taibo, and Taizong has the festival of son Zang, so how can chaos arise!"

With a pause of Hongli's pen, a mass of thick ink smudged on the paper, and the originally flawless work suddenly became a piece of waste paper.

Seeing Hongli looking up, He Shen quickly calmed down, and then said: "This sentence comes from "Tang Ji". Sima Guang thought that it was the right way in ancient times to make the eldest son the prince, but Tang Gaozu Li Yuan was able to occupy the world. , his son Li Shimin has made the greatest contribution. Prince Li Jiancheng is inferior in qualifications, but he is above Li Shimin. With Zi Zang's minister festival, there will be no chaos."

Hongli put down his pen, stared at He Shen's profile and asked, "Do you agree with Sima Guang's words?"

He Shen paused, and replied: "The slaves thought that there was a law in the Tang Dynasty, which was passed on to the eldest son, but there is no such rule in this dynasty. Emperor Gao even explicitly prohibited brotherhood, so Sima Guang said, It does not apply to this dynasty."

Hongli pondered for a long time, then sighed: "Yes, the ruler of this dynasty has always been the one who is capable. In the past, when I was fighting with the third child, the fifth child was just a spectator. Everyone said that the fifth child was just an idler. The prince's material. But this royal child, how could he not want to be in that position? I have always known that the fifth child is not reconciled."

He Shen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. From Hongli's words, he vaguely smelled a royal secret, and couldn't help but clenched the book in his hand.

Hongli's thoughts seemed to have drifted far away. He leaned on the throne, his eyes slightly closed: "In these years, I have tried my best to grant what the fifth child wants. I know that he misses the old man who was in Prince Yong's mansion. I will give him all the property in the mansion. If he wants power, I will let him be the governor of the Three Banners, and specially appoint him to participate in the discussion of politics, but he still looks like a fool."

Since He Shen traveled through time, he has never seen such a lonely expression on Hongli's face, as if his eyes will be red in the next second.He said softly: "The emperor's kindness to the prince is well known. The so-called brotherhood, and the prince will definitely understand the emperor's painstaking efforts."

Hongli shook his head and said with a wry smile: "He, he is angry with me. In his heart, I am the one who killed the third child. He is afraid of me, and he is not willing to forgive me."

He Shen looked at the emperor on the throne, tiredness appeared on his handsome face.He suddenly realized: Hongli is the emperor, but after all, he is just a body of flesh and blood, he will be tired, weak, and annoyed.Unexpectedly, He Shen stretched out his hand, trying to rub the wrinkles between Hongli's brows, but was disturbed by a voice.

"The emperor... and the prince..." Wu Shulai was halfway through the sentence, and was suddenly shocked by the scene in front of him: He served Hongli all the year round, and he had never seen him so defenseless, like a fierce tiger. A forest where you can sleep peacefully.

Hongli opened his eyes as if aware of it, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter with the Prince?"

Wu Shulai turned around and said hesitantly, "He Prince...had hemoptysis..."

He Shen trembled when he heard the words, the book in his hand fell to the ground, he turned his head stiffly, and saw Hongli's eyes focus on a point in the void, and he repeated blankly: "Hemoptysis..."

The air in Sanxi Hall seemed to be stagnant, and Hongli struggled to get off the throne.A pair of feet were about to step on the ground, He Shen quickly took the imperial boots aside, leaned over to help Hongli put them on.

Hongli stared at He Shen in a daze, and he heard He Shen say: "Your Majesty, this servant wants to accompany the Emperor to visit Prince He's Mansion, and hope for His Majesty's permission."

Hongli nodded slowly, staggered when he got up, but was held firmly by He Shen in the next second.He Shen showed a conciliatory smile at Hongli, and said in a warm voice: "I heard from the older generation that the emperor is the real dragon emperor, born with auspicious aura. The ghost of Hades in the underworld has to take a detour when he sees the emperor. You This time I will personally visit the prince and the prince, the prince will definitely recover from his illness and be safe and sound."

There was a crack in Hongli's cold expression, he forcefully squeezed out a smile, and cursed: "Nonsense." Although it was a reproach, Wu Shulai felt that when Hongli spoke, his desolate temperament faded .

Wu Shu came forward several times, trying to help Hongli for He Shen.But the two people walking in front, one walking and the other supporting, reminded people of symbiotic vines for no reason.

When the two stepped into the gate of the palace, He Shen was taken aback by the white silk and white silk that filled his eyes.A mourning hall was set up in the main hall of the palace, and all the servants were dressed in mourning.

Hongli tremblingly said: "What about the prince?"

The servant in the front yard stopped crying and sobbed: "If you go back to the emperor, the prince and the imperial doctors are all in the warm pavilion."

An unknown fire rose in Hongli's heart: "You have arranged the mourning hall before you die, are you all looking forward to your master's death?"

The servant was so frightened that he knelt down: "Your Majesty, the prince ordered the servants to arrange it. He said that it would be dead if he left early and late, and he also said that the melons and fruits placed in the mourning hall can be eaten freely..."

Seeing Hongli trembling with anger, He Shen shouted coldly: "Bold slave, don't talk nonsense."

Hongli took a deep breath and said angrily, "You let him talk!"

The servant was already trembling with fright, and stammered, "Your lord... also said... also said... that you will have the strength to cry for him when you are full, and that no one will cry for him except the servants." .”

Hongli's feet were vain, and he walked towards the Nuan Pavilion like a walking corpse.He Shen wanted to help him, but he pushed him away.

The small warm pavilion was full of people, all five imperial physicians were present, there was also a servant who wiped Hong Zhou's body, and Fujin who was sitting by the side and couldn't stop crying.A choking smell of medicine hit, but Hongli didn't notice it at all.

Seeing Hongli, the imperial doctors all had a bitter face, and the imperial hospital judged tremblingly: "The emperor...and the prince..."

"There is no need to treat it." Hongli's face was so gloomy that it was frightening, and what he said was even more unbelievable.The Imperial Hospital judged that Hongli was blaming the imperial physician for his incompetence, and hastily explained: "The cause of hemoptysis needs to be further diagnosed. I implore the emperor to give you some more time..."

Hongli yelled and interrupted the court sentence: "I said there is no need to treat him, are he deaf? Since he wants to die so much, I will let him go. Pack up everything for me and get out."

For a moment, everyone in the room was afraid of hurting themselves, even Hong Zhou's wife Fujin left the door wiping away tears.In the stuffy warm pavilion, only Hongli and the man lying on the sickbed were left.
