Counterattack of the Cannon Fodder Chambermaid

Chapter 529 Don't blame me for being selfish (2)

The dripping water outside turned into ice, the cold wind was biting, and the Zichen Hall was full of people.

There was Empress Xiao, Concubine Xu, several high-ranking concubines of Emperor Xi, and several princesses of different ages. There was a room full of women and children, but Luo Jing was the only man.

After all the imperial physicians pricked the acupoints with golden needles and poured medicine, Emperor Xi woke up leisurely.

All the girls here cried loudly, Emperor Xi moved his mouth, Zheng Haiquan moved over.

Your Majesty has orders. Everyone retreat, leaving the prince by his side.

Empress Xiao led all the female relatives to retreat to the outer hall, leaving only the prince alone in the inner hall.

Emperor Xi was propped up on a soft pillow by Zheng Haiquan, his complexion was abnormally rosy. Luo Jing knew that it was the old ginseng soup that was used just now, and now it can be regarded as a flashback.

You understand almost everything that should be taught, and Daxi will leave it to you in the future.

Father...

The two prime ministers, Xu Ke, Lin has to weigh it...

My son understands.

Emperor Xi had already told Luo Jing about this, and he understood the reason. Although Prime Minister Xu has factions, he can be regarded as an isolated minister. Prime Minister Lin is just the opposite. Behind him is an intricate family. The aristocratic family must not be used, and it cannot be used too much. It is the right way to restrain and promote.

Fortunately, although Emperor Xi has all kinds of bad things, he is quite clear in government affairs. The aristocratic family has been suppressed by him for so many years, so the Lin family took the lead with Lin Jian.

Emperor Xi didn't speak anymore, Zheng Haiquan walked in and said softly: The two prime ministers have arrived.

Xuan—

The outer hall of Zichen Hall was full of people kneeling, and the hall was filled with suppressed sobs.

Everyone was very dazed, after all, almost all those kneeling here were people related to Emperor Xi. A new generation of emperors replaced the old emperors. People like them will no longer be the emperor's concubines, but will become concubines. Those who have sons and daughters are fine, but those who have no sons and no daughters can only spend a lifetime in this deep palace.

Only Empress Xiao is the one with the calmest mood here, and she is a well-deserved winner among this group of people. When the new king ascends the throne, she will be the queen mother. Since the new king has no biological mother, there will only be a queen mother like her in the harem.

Daxi values ​​filial piety, and it is conceivable that she will be honored in the future. Even if there is a disagreement with Xinjun, as long as she is the queen mother, Xinjun must respect her, not to mention that the future queen is still her niece.

After about a quarter of an hour, the prince and the two prime ministers stepped out of the inner hall with solemn expressions.

Zheng Haiquan said in a hoarse voice: Empress Xuan——

Empress Xiao stood up straight, her eyes were half-drowned, her face was full of endless sorrow, but she held her own identity and endured it, not as good as other people who cried so that they lost all image. She took two steps slowly, staggered a bit, and finally couldn't hold back the sadness in her heart, and ran into the inner hall.

This scene entered the eyes of Luo Jing and the two prime ministers. Luo Jing's face was calm and unwavering, while the two prime ministers had strange expressions in their eyes.

His Majesty……

Empress Xiao lay beside the dragon couch, weeping uncontrollably.

Min'er, how long have you been married to me?

From, to now, for more than forty years.

Emperor Xi showed a dazed smile, and his dry and pale lips seemed to mutter something, because the voice was too low, Empress Xiao could not hear clearly. He raised his hand, Empress Xiao managed to straighten up and sit down on the edge of the couch.

Min'er, have you ever regretted marrying me?

Empress Xiao was taken aback, No.

I... have never regretted marrying you. You are my concubine, my empress, and my only empress.

Empress Xiao's face seemed both sad and happy, and tears rolled down again.

His Majesty……

Now that I'm leaving, are you reluctant?

The concubine is very sad...

Emperor Xi revealed a smile of unknown meaning.

The inner hall was so quiet that a needle could be heard, when Emperor Xi's soft voice suddenly sounded.

...I will give you two choices, walk with me and live, but there is no place for the Queen Mother...

Empress Xiao was immersed in grief, and didn't react until Emperor Xi finished speaking.

His Majesty?
