sick princess

In Fengyi Palace, the atmosphere between the emperor and empress was quite harmonious.

Emperor Yongjia personally held the porridge bowl, brought the bird's nest porridge in the bowl to his lips and blew it cold, and fed it to Empress Fu in one mouthful. The action was really gentle and patient to the extreme. Emperor Yongjia would actually do such a trivial matter by himself.

Although Empress Fu's complexion was still a little pale, it was much better than when she was rescued a few days ago.While drinking the porridge fed by Emperor Yongjia, she quietly looked at the man in front of her.This time, they seem to be closer than ever.Because she had just experienced life and death, she finally let go of all her burdens, and her heart was clear and peaceful.

Beside Empress Fu's bed, lay the eldest prince's cradle.The little baby is lying happily in the cradle, yawning from time to time, or stretching out its fleshy little fists.

If one ignores the overly rich and elegant decorations in the palace, this is really just an ordinary family of three.

After Empress Fu swallowed the last mouthful of porridge, Emperor Yongjia took out a silk handkerchief that had been prepared, and gently wiped her mouth.

Empress Fu stared fixedly at Emperor Yongjia: "Your Majesty, let's talk."

The movements of Emperor Yongjia paused: "Okay."

The eldest prince in the cradle propped his head, his big round eyes rolled back and forth on his parents, as if he was curious about what they were talking about.

"The reason for the marriage between the concubine and the emperor, the emperor must also understand. All along, the concubine has not been honest enough to the emperor, because the concubine does not trust the emperor, and similarly, the concubine does not trust herself. The concubine only thinks about it." How to protect yourself wisely, without thinking about how to be a good wife."

"Since the last earthquake, when the emperor put himself in danger and rescued the concubine from the collapsed Fengyi Palace, the concubine has been thinking about how to get along between the concubine and the emperor. I can think about it , the courtiers and concubines couldn’t find an answer.”

"The concubine was unable to help the emperor at the critical moment of the emperor's succession. Even now, the role that the concubine can play is very limited. But the concubine has a greedy natal family, and she can only discredit the emperor every now and then. Drag the emperor's hind legs."

"The emperor is a responsible person, and the concubines are not worthy of the emperor. The emperor treats the concubines so well, and the concubines can't repay them."

Emperor Yongjia took a deep breath and was about to say something when he suddenly felt a warm touch on his hand.Empress Fu firmly put her hand on Emperor Yongjia's: "Your Majesty, don't worry, listen to my concubine first. These words have been held in my heart for a long time. If it wasn't for this time, I would have I am afraid that the concubine will continue to bury it in my heart, and will not tell anyone."

"Although the emperor treats his concubines so well, the concubines still feel in their hearts that sooner or later, the emperor will get tired of the concubines, or the concubines' natal family. Therefore, the concubines dare not respond to the emperor, and the concubines are afraid Now that the concubine has responded to the emperor, the concubine will feel even more uncomfortable when the day comes when the husband and wife break up."

"Of course the concubine believes that the emperor sincerely wants to live a good life with the concubine, but no one can say for sure what will happen in the future, right? No one can endure an overbearing and unreasonable Yue family for a lifetime. Therefore, although the emperor treats the concubine That's good, the courtiers and concubines only dare to care more about the emperor, and dare not respond to the emperor."

"This time, the disaster caused by the Fu family has finally crossed the line. The concubine's son was plotted against, and the life of the imperial sister was hanging by a thread. The concubine originally thought that the concubine had nothing to give up, and only This life. If something happens to the imperial sister, the concubine will go with the imperial sister, and the right is to forgive the sin and repay the favor. In this way, the imperial sister will not be lonely."

Emperor Yongjia moved his lips and said: "You...you only know that you will feel better if you go with the imperial sister, have you never considered me? If you just lost your sister, you will lose your wife. How can I feel so bad? I am not a man of iron, and I cannot bear the pain of bereavement one after another!"

"And our child, you just think about adopting him to your younger sister. Even if your younger sister has him, it also finds a way out for him. But why don't you think about it, the child lost his mother to take care of him at a young age How pitiful? Even though the Lan family dare not neglect him because of his royal blood, how much do you think the Lan family in grief can devote to him? You are not afraid that he will grow up , blame you, blame you?"

As he spoke, Emperor Yongjia's eyes slowly turned red, and his voice was choked with sobs.

The man did not shed tears, but he did not go to the sad place.

When the late emperor was there, he was not valued by the late emperor, and he was pushed out everywhere. Even in the most difficult time, he gritted his teeth and never shed a tear, because he knew that he was the mother and sister's reliance. If even he was weak, Backed down, is it possible to put all the burden on the mother and younger sister, two female generations?

But now, after his younger sister and his wife had lingered in front of the gate of hell, he finally couldn't help it, revealing his weak side that is not easy to show others.

In front of him, Empress Fu was already weeping.

"Everything is wrong. It's all about the concubine's fault. If the concubine hadn't been worried and couldn't treat the emperor as the emperor treats his concubine, I'm afraid we wouldn't have taken so many detours. Now, the concubine is at the gate of hell. After going through such a journey, I also want to think about it, and focus on the present. Even if in the future, the emperor may be intolerable to his concubines because of the Fu family's affairs, the concubines cannot shrink back because of this illusory future and completely deny the present. "

"In the future, the concubines will treat the emperor with sincerity just like the emperor treats the concubines. The concubines will work hard to be good wives, mothers, daughter-in-laws and sister-in-laws until the day when the emperor hates the concubines."

Emperor Yongjia didn't feel very happy when he heard Empress Fu's heart-to-heart words, but was very distressed.

He stretched out his hand and held Empress Fu's hand backwards, as if he wanted to use this movement to transmit power to Empress Fu.

"Queen, I have always known that you are jealous of the Fu family and dare not get too close to me. But I never thought that the influence of the Fu family on you would be so deep. Don't worry, I will not let the Fu family Affecting you and our family for the rest of our lives, the matter of the Fu family will soon come to an end...I know that you won't believe what I'm saying now, so you can just look back. "

Empress Fu nodded.This man doesn't promise anything easily, but what he said will eventually come true one by one. Maybe she can look forward to it?

Suddenly there was a loud noise from outside, Emperor Yongjia frowned, and was about to reprimand, but saw one of his eunuchs walking in with a happy face: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The Imperial Master was found by his son-in-law and brought back! Now at the gate of the palace, waiting for an audience!"

These days, people in the palace are worried, afraid that what happened a few days ago will happen again.If the national teacher has not returned to the capital, Princess Longevity will not be able to survive, and there will be no good fruit for them!

Therefore, when they learned that the national teacher had arrived at the gate of the palace, they were really relieved.

The next thing is left to the national teacher. The national teacher is so capable that he can pull the long-lived princess back from the gate of hell three times and four times. This time, he must be able to save the long-lived princess, right?

Even if it can't, the one who will be punished will only be the national teacher, and it has nothing to do with them.

When Emperor Yongjia heard the news, he couldn't sit still immediately: "Hurry up and invite the national teacher to the imperial sister. The imperial sister's condition can't be delayed for a moment, let the national teacher see it early, so I can rest assured."

Speaking of which, he hadn't seen the national teacher for a long time.The last time I saw the national teacher was when he was under ten years old.

At that time, the national teacher asked the late emperor to tell his old age. The late emperor clearly did not want to agree, but in the end he reluctantly agreed.

So much time has passed, Emperor Yongjia's impression of the national teacher has become very vague, he only vaguely remembers that he is a gentle and wise figure, who seems to be very trustworthy.

Logically speaking, since we haven't seen each other for so many years, we should talk about the past first.However, Baoluo was anxiously waiting for help, and if it was delayed for a moment, it would be more dangerous, and Emperor Yongjia did not dare to take it lightly.

Because of Emperor Yongjia's consent, the national teacher was led by Lan Chengyu and entered the palace without any hindrance.

Empress Dowager Xu got the news and ordered people to wait outside early.

Although the national teacher is getting old, he still looks so gentle and refined, and from his facial features, he can still see the characteristics of a foreigner.He slightly nodded towards Empress Dowager Xu: "Empress Dowager, please stay safe."

Seeing the national teacher, the Empress Dowager Xu felt relieved: "This time, I will trouble the national teacher again."

"Caomin is no longer the master of the Great Xia, the Empress Dowager can just call Caomin 'Hui'."

"Hui 茝" is exactly the character that Emperor Yongjia's grandfather bestowed on the teacher of the state.At that time, the national teacher was still very young, but because of his extraordinary talent, he was valued by Emperor Yongjia's grandfather.When seizing the throne, the national teacher unexpectedly stood on the side of the late emperor and helped the late emperor win the final victory. Therefore, he was also highly valued by the late emperor.

"I don't know how your father is doing now?"

Empress Dowager Xu froze: "Father...he has been in poor health since he was relegated. He passed away a few years ago."

Originally, according to the identity of Queen Mother Xu's father, she shouldn't have gone so quietly.But who made the Empress Dowager Xu unfavorable at that time, and her natal family was turned into a white body again?Even after Emperor Yongjia ascended the throne, he posthumously conferred the title of Cheng'en Gong on his maternal grandfather, and reinstated several uncles from his maternal family's family, but the lives that had passed away could not be saved.

The national teacher had a lot of friendship with the Empress Dowager Xu's natal family back then. Hearing this, he sighed deeply: "There is a chance, the grass people want to go to your father's grave and burn incense for your father. After all, your father was The grassroots have the grace of saving lives. The grassroots have never dared to forget this kindness."

Empress Dowager Xu shook her head: "Although my father has saved Hui Chi once, Hui Chi has saved us several times. If we really count, we owe Hui Chi a lot. This time, the little girl's life depends on Hui Chi again. It's gone."

If it hadn't been for the persuasion of Empress Dowager Xu's father back then, the national teacher might not have chosen to side with Emperor Zhaode, nor would he have spoken for Empress Dowager Xu several times when Emperor Zhaode favored his concubine and killed his wife.

"Caomin go in and see how the princess is doing."
