Most afraid of the heroine's sudden concern

Royal Palace.

There were many people standing outside the main hall of Tinglan Palace where the queen lived.

The people inside were busy, the eunuchs and maids who came in and out were covered with fine sweat, and their footsteps were in a hurry, and they didn't have time to salute the masters guarding in front of them.

At this moment, another group of eunuchs and maids came in through the wide open palace gate, carrying a soft sedan chair, and did not come down until the front of the inner hall.

Looking at the battle, the palace concubines, princes and princesses, and imperial doctors all knew who was coming.

This is the eldest princess of Da'an Kingdom, the eldest sister of the crown prince who is only six years old now.

The curtain of the soft sedan chair was lifted by the court lady, "Princess, we're here."

Following the reminder of the palace lady Nianhe, the people inside slowly opened their eyes, looked at the palace with a corner slightly exposed outside the curtain, paused, and said, "Let's go."

Nian He handed over her hand so that the eldest princess could hold her hand down.

As soon as she got out of the sedan chair, a little man rushed over.

"Queen!"

This is her prince brother.

The prince has been close to the eldest princess since he was a child, and because of his young age, he is naturally happy to see his sister in a serious and lifeless place.

Sitting in the middle of the yard, the empress sulked and shouted displeasedly: "Ruochu! Your father is still alive and dead, how can you laugh out loud, this is disrespectful!"

When Qiu Ruochu heard the queen's words, she obediently put away her smile, lowered her head expressionlessly and said nothing.

Qiu Ruoya was naturally unhappy seeing her younger brother like this.

"Why does the queen mother have to be angry with a child, the father is an auspicious person, and Ruochu is the prince of Da'an, the father's son. He smiled and said that it might bring good luck to the father. uncertain."

The queen wanted to say something more, but Qiu Ruoya patted Qiu Ruochu on the back comfortingly, and said again: "You and the second brother don't laugh more, drive away the plague god for the father, and stop Ruochu from being happy, what is it?" Take care!"

The queen looked at Qiu Ruoya in disbelief, as if she didn't expect her to contradict her like this.

The second prince Qiu Jiayou didn't say a word, he directly brought the two eunuchs behind him forward, pointed at Qiu Ruoya and said, "My sister, my sister, all goodness and filial piety are the first, even if you are for your own brother, How can you contradict your mother? This is unfilial!

Thinking that his father was still sick on the couch, it was not suitable for him to teach the younger sister himself, so the elder brother overcame the distance and did it for him. "

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand, and the two eunuchs behind him were about to step forward to grab Qiu Ruoya, when her eldest maid had already made a move and knocked the two eunuchs to the ground.

The movement was quick, and none of the people here noticed how she made the move. They saw her take two steps forward and two feints, and the two of them fell to the ground.

Qiu Ruoya took Qiu Ruochu's hand and walked forward with Nianhe.

"I forgot to tell everyone that the people my mother left for me and the crown prince were very skilled."

The person in the hall, the person Qiu Jiayou said was sick in bed, is the current emperor of Da'an.

Qiu Ruoya and Qiu Ruochu's mother, who was his first queen, died three years ago.

Afterwards, Qiu Jiayou's biological mother came to power and became the second queen of Da'an Kingdom.

There was no conspiracy in it, Qiu Ruoya's biological mother was not in good health, but after giving birth to Qiu Ruoya, she took good care of her, and she thought she was completely recovered, so she gave birth to Qiu Ruochu.

However, born with poor health is not so easy to recuperate. After giving birth to Qiu Ruochu, the physical condition of the former empress took a turn for the worse, and finally passed away three years ago.

The emperor and the first empress were childhood sweethearts, and they had a deep relationship. After the first empress passed away, the emperor made his son Qiu Ruochu the crown prince.

The emperor's first son died, and now the second prince, Qiu Jiayou, is considered the eldest son. Originally, his biological mother became the queen, so he could become the eldest son. Who knew that the emperor made Qiu Ruochu the crown prince first, so he would be considered the eldest son now. It's useless to be the eldest son.

However, things always turn around.

About nine months ago, the emperor accidentally exposed his identity when he went out for a private visit in his micro-service, which led to his death.

The opponent's strength is strong, even if all the people brought by the emperor appear, they can't stop the opponent from hurting the emperor.

It's not fatal, but it's more difficult to treat.

The emperor refused to accept this or that, he was about to die and he refused to take good care of his wounds. He dealt with state affairs every day and forgot to sleep and eat. All were injured and critically ill.

For the past month, the emperor has been bedridden, and the imperial physicians have come several times, some of them are watching inside, and some of them have just seen the injury outside and are studying the treatment plan outside.

It's a pity that no matter how many times they study, the final results are not optimistic.

The palace was suddenly shrouded in dark clouds, everyone had different thoughts, some were secretly happy, like some people who wanted to be emperors.

Some don't care, like Qiu Ruochu who doesn't know anything.

There are also those concubines who are so sad that they can't help themselves, and feel that the sky is falling when the emperor dies.

As for Qiu Ruoya, she looked at the palace calmly, waiting for the imperial physician's final verdict.

It's not that the emperor has been ill for a day or two. She started her plan when she first came to this world a year ago.

She prepared for so long, waited for so long, and finally when it was getting dark, the death knell in the palace rang.

It seems that this moment has been known for a long time. A month ago, martial law had been imposed in Beijing and China, and everything was ready.

The bell in the Huguo Temple outside the capital also rang an hour later, and the mourning bell lingered for a long time.

For a time, wailing sounded throughout the entire Tinglan Palace.

In the 23rd year of Rong'an, Emperor Rong died.

Three months later, Prince Qiu Ruochu held a grand enthronement ceremony and changed the country's name to 'Yun'an'.

The end of Rong'an's 23rd year fell in December, and in the new year, the sky in Da'an has also changed.

In the first month of the first year of Yun'an, the new emperor came to court for the first time, and a seemingly unexpected person entered the palace, but he was expected by all the officials.

Qiu Ruochu sat on the dragon chair with her small body, feeling a little at a loss.

Qiu Ruoya sat aside, with a curtain hanging in front of her, and memorials, imperial pens, and jade seals on the table.

You can tell what she wants to do.

Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, there are many things that must be done before the government, such as where the princes and daughters should go, where the former emperor's concubines should be placed, and so on.

After the Chinese New Year, Qiu Ruochu was eight years old, and in one month it would be his seventh birthday.

Also a big kid.

It's a pity that he didn't know how to deal with these things, so Qiu Ruoya did it for him.

Qiu Ruoya is 16 years old this year, Jiji last year, and has a fiancé who made an engagement two years ago.

The first emperor wanted to watch Qiu Ruoya get married, but unfortunately, her health was getting worse day by day, and Qiu Ruoya didn't want to move out of the palace so early. The first emperor doted on his daughter, so the matter was shelved.

After the princess reaches Jiji, the emperor will confer a title and set up a courtyard, move out of the palace, or continue to live in the palace, depending on personal wishes.

But after having a son-in-law, you have to move out of the palace. If you want to live in the palace, you can, but the time can't be too long.

The former emperor had already built a princess mansion outside the palace for her, but it was no worse than what she lived in the palace.

It's just that now she's going to "listen to the government behind the curtain", and the Princess Mansion can be temporarily exempted. After Qiu Ruochu grows up, she can handle the court affairs independently before moving out.

The morning court on the first day is not a normal day to go to court. To deal with these trivial matters, it is natural to find a day to rest and take a bath. If you really start to deal with the government affairs, you will go to court after two days.

Da'an Kingdom has an early morning court on the third day, and the rest of the time is for rest and bathing, so you don't need to use it. If you have important matters, you can go to the imperial study to find the emperor.

As soon as Qiu Ruoya sat down, the person standing at the top started talking.

Although Qiu Ruoya is an eldest princess, she actually has several older brothers, and they also took advantage of being the eldest among the imperial daughters, so she earned the title of an eldest princess.

Among the first emperor's sons, eight were older than Qiu Tang, and except for one eldest prince who unfortunately passed away, there were seven more.

These seven people all want to be emperors, and the second prince who has been the eldest son for several years is the one who wants to be the most.

He stood at the bottom, looking at Qiu Ruochu on the dragon chair, his eyes were red.

I don't know if it's because Qiu Ruochu sat on the dragon chair and couldn't sleep well last night, or because she felt jealous when she saw this scene.

But Qiu Ruoya didn't care about these, because it wasn't him who opened the mouth to find fault.

It was the sixth prince, Qiu Wenxuan.

Except for the sixth prince Qiu Wenxuan and the seventh prince Qiu Wenyu who are twin brothers among the sons of the first emperor, all the others were born to different concubines.

There are quite a lot of other people and sisters, but there is no brother or brother.

The only one in the palace who has two sons is Concubine De, the mother of the sixth and seventh princes.

The Seventh Prince didn't have the heart to seize the heir, after all, it was enough for a family to have one who wanted to be emperor.

On the first day of the morning court, although the seventh prince didn't like the atmosphere here, he had already stood beside the sixth prince in order to watch a good show.

The sixth prince Qiu Wenxuan stood behind the second prince Qiu Jiayou, took a slight step to the right, and stood up.

"Why did the imperial sister sit there? Although I, Da'an, do have a precedent for a woman listening to politics behind a curtain, but the imperial sister does not seem to be the material..."

Qiu Wenxuan shook his head twice, "tsk tsk", and said: "Although the imperial sister is old enough, she is still too young for her age. I'm afraid she won't be able to deal with the government affairs. Why don't you ask the imperial brother to help you?"

Qiu Ruoya just looked at Qiu Wenxuan quietly, without speaking.

Seeing that Qiu Ruoya didn't say a word, the third prince Qiu Chenghong suppressed the emotion in his eyes, and said in a calm tone, "Sixth brother is overhearted, if the imperial sister can't handle it, how can she sit in that position."

And how could she not handle it?

She is better at scheming and scheming than anyone else. When Qiu Ruoya started to win over power in private, she fought with her military adviser, and almost made her military adviser disarm and return to the field in anger.

Although being good at scheming and scheming does not mean that he has a high ability to deal with government affairs, but Qiu Chenghong has seen Qiu Ruoya's ability before, and he admits that this woman is really powerful.

Qiu Ruoya watched from the sidelines, quietly watching the battle between Qiu Chenghong and Qiu Wenxuan, and finally when Qiu Wenxuan was about to lose, she placed the teacup heavily on the table, awakening the two who were quarreling endlessly.

"If the sixth prince doesn't believe it, just watch and don't talk too much. You should be careful about saying the wrong thing when you enter the court."

Qiu Wenxuan called Qiu Ruoya the imperial sister before, but when Qiu Ruoya mentioned him again, she only said the word "Sixth Prince".

Oh yes, this is above the imperial court, there is no kinship relationship, only his identity.

After the quarrel between the two, a lot of time was wasted, Qiu Ruoya looked at the time, nodded to the chief eunuch beside him, and immediately brought the little eunuch forward.

The little eunuch followed respectfully, holding several imperial edicts in his hands.

The chief eunuch looked at it, took out the one on the far left, and read it.

This is the decree left by the late emperor.

Although I had read it before succeeding to the throne, but I took it out again at this moment to deter those restless people.

As for the effect, it is unknown.

The second imperial decree was also from the late emperor.

This time it's not about Qiu Ruochu's succession, but Qiu Ruoya's.

The imperial decree stated that Qiu Ruoya would be named the eldest princess and given the title Ruo'an.

Ruoya is the name of a boudoir, and the name of Da'an Kingdom was added, which shows how much the late emperor valued and loved Qiu Ruoya.

The third imperial decree is the masterpiece of the current emperor, Qiu Ruochu.

In the imperial decree, Qiu Ruochu's young age was changed to physical discomfort, and it was not suitable to review memorials for a long time, and her sister, the eldest princess, was specially ordered to serve on her behalf.

Physical discomfort, which also includes throat discomfort.

The place where he goes up is the Jinluan Hall, such a big place, if you want the people down to hear him, you have to shout.

Children should not yell too much, otherwise the voice will be damaged, and it will be difficult to hear when speaking in the future, making people cover their ears.

Therefore, for the ears of the ministers, and for Qiu Ruochu himself, before the body recovers, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess will do everything for her.

What Qiu Ruoya has done now has become justifiable, and none of the lower courtiers objected.

They didn't know that Qiu Ruoya had already wooed the courtiers, and now most of the people in the court were from their own side, so it was naturally impossible to oppose her.

Those who don't know the inside story instinctively feel that something is wrong, and it's fine if others don't speak up, but the people in their own camp don't speak up.

On the steps, the chief eunuch continued to read the imperial decree.

What follows is all about the prince, princess, and concubine.

The matter of the imperial concubine is easier to deal with. At present, there are only four high-ranking people in the harem, and there are only five with the empress.

To be honest, the queen didn't make any big mistakes, and even though Qiu Ruochu had been taken care of by Qiu Ruoya in the past few years, in the eyes of outsiders, the two siblings were raised by the queen.

Even if she didn't raise her, just because of her status, she wouldn't suffer too much.

It is an established fact that she has become the queen mother, and Qiu Ruoya did not attack her in advance. If she is doing well, if she has any careful thoughts, then it is no wonder she is to blame.

The remaining four imperial concubines became imperial concubines.

There are not many princesses who are as good as Ji, except for Qiu Ruoya, there are only two of them, who have obtained their own titles, and there are also princess mansions outside the palace that have been prepared by the late emperor before his death.

And the princesses who haven't reached Ji haven't titled yet, they have to wait till Ji and get the title before they can leave the palace and live in their own princess mansion.

The princes are much simpler, most of them have grown up, but they haven't reached the crown yet.

However, in Da'an, men's coming of age and attaining the crown are two different things, and attaining the crown is a matter of 20 years old, not as early as women's attainment.

Girls are considered adults when they reach the age of ji, but men are considered adults after they turn 16, and getting a crown is just a symbolic proof that they are adults.

Actually it doesn't help.

Mature people will continue to mature, and immature people will not become mature and sensible just because of a ceremony.

Now that the coronation ceremony has been held and titles have been granted, there are four princes who have moved to live outside the palace, from the second prince to the fifth prince, all four of them have titles.

The fourth prince is in poor health and has been recuperating outside the palace. Unless something important happens, he won't see each other for a long time.

The fourth prince left the palace five years ago. In the past five years, it was only the funeral of the former empress. The fourth prince came back after the emperor passed away a few months ago. It was quietly guarding alone in the palace.

The fifth prince worshiped the Great General Wang as his teacher many years ago, and he is still guarding the border with the son of the Great General Wang in the army.

So these few were removed, the sixth prince and the seventh prince already had a palace, and the seventh prince once came to the late emperor, saying that he would not entrust the land in the future and travel around the world by himself.

When the first emperor was not in such a bad state, he often pulled Qiu Ruoya to say these words.

She also remembers clearly, but for those who don't have a fief, the source of income must be the emperor, so it's better to give him a fief, and let others manage it, anyway, if he is short of money for traveling, Solve it yourself, you can't ask the emperor for it.

The seventh prince was found, but the sixth prince was not.

He didn't have a title yet. After Qiu Ruoya gave him a title, she ignored him and started thinking about others.

The chief eunuch quickly finished reading all the imperial edicts, and everyone had nothing to do, so they retreated.

Since the death of the former emperor, Qiu Ruoya brought Qiu Ruochu to live in the Hall of Supreme Harmony by virtue of the imperial decree.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony is located in the front palace, very close to the Imperial Study Room, and not too far from the Jinluan Hall of the early dynasty.

And the harem was reserved for those women.

Qiu Ruoya dragged Qiu Ruochu to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, while teaching what an emperor should learn.

When I walked to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, I saw a man standing under the willow tree in the courtyard.

The man was wearing a white robe, his long black hair tied up with a jade crown, a white jade wrench on the thumb of his left hand behind his back, and a fan in his hand.

Seeing them coming back, the palace servants at the gate of the palace smiled slightly and said in unison: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Eldest Princess."

Although the imperial decree was only issued today, after Qiu Ruochu's enthronement ceremony was held, everyone in the palace changed their minds.

Hearing the voice here, the man turned and looked this way.

When he saw Qiu Tang, his cold face melted like a glacier, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a perfect smile.

"Princess."

Qiu Ruoya stepped forward, nodded slightly, and asked, "Why is your son free to enter the palace today?"

This is Qiu Ruoya's fiance, named He Xiujie.

He Xiujie's grandfather was the prime minister, his father was the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, his cousin was the second prince Qiu Jiayou, and his aunt was the queen mother.

After the first empress passed away, the first emperor met He Xiujie a few times, he liked He Xiujie very much, and because they were relatives, after all, the empress' nephew was also his nephew.

Due to multiple reasons, the first emperor made an exception and made He Xiujie his son, promising that he could be named king with a different surname after reaching the crown.

Not only that, he also decided to make a marriage contract for Qiu Ruoya and He Xiujie.

It would be gratifying to congratulate him if he was only conferred the title of prince with a different surname, but it is a pity that the first emperor later made a marriage contract for him and a princess.

You know, after he married the princess, no matter whether he was a prince or not, he had only one identity at that time, and that was the son-in-law.

But He Xiujie didn't seem to like this marriage contract very much, and the two had only met a few times. Outsiders didn't know that they were avoiding suspicion, but they knew that the two of them looked down on each other more than the other.

I took the initiative to come today, and then there will be a novelty.

Qiu Ruoya looked up at He Xiujie, and before he could speak, she took Qiu Ruochu's hand and walked into the hall.

"I'm a bit tired this morning, and it's not suitable to see guests. Your son, please come back."

He Xiujie's smile froze on his face, being rejected for the first time, he could only watch Qiu Ruoya leave without doing anything.

Qiu Ruoya returned to the hall, comforted Qiu Ruochu, who got up early, and fell asleep again.

Seeing Qiu Ruochu fall asleep, Qiu Ruoya got up, walked to the soft bed beside her, and collapsed.

Thirteen: [You really don't look like a princess now. 】

Qiu Ruoya used her hand as a fan, put it on her forehead and fanned it, and said: [Although it is Qiu Ruoya, I am still Qiu Tang in essence. 】

Anyway, it's not the princess herself, so she doesn't feel guilty at all for ruining her image.

She collapsed on the soft bed, and after a long time, she suddenly sighed and said: 【You said I changed my name, will Xiaoer not recognize me? 】

Thirteen was silent for a while, then suddenly said: 【You hide a little bit and look behind secretly. 】

Qiu Tang didn't know why, but he still did as Shisan said.

She just hid her whole body behind the soft collapse, when she saw the closed window behind her being pushed open suddenly, and the woman in black jumped in hastily before she had time to observe the situation in the room.

Originally, his body was light and his movements were nimble, but when he jumped off the window, his legs became weak and he couldn't stand firm.

Throwing his body towards the ground, Qiu Tang opened his eyes wide and ran over at a speed that he couldn't even imagine.

However, she still failed to catch the woman in black.

The woman's mask had come off, she turned around clutching her waist, coughed lightly, and growled, "If you want to catch it, catch it, big sister!"

Qiu Tang: "..."

endure endure endure endure.

A small leak will sink a great ship.

Qiu Tang took a deep breath and asked, "What's your name?"

The woman in black looked unhappy, and replied with a cold snort, "None of your business?"

Qiu Tang took another deep breath, and put his toes on her waist.

"If you don't tell me, I'll hand you over to the imperial army."

There was a wound between the woman's waist and abdomen, which was still bleeding. Her complexion was pale, probably because she felt very painful.

It won't hurt the woman if Qiu Tang put his foot there like this, but the woman is sure that if her attitude is still so bad, she will definitely kick him over.

Step down...

OK.

For the sake of her own life, the woman can only give up.

"Yan Qiuer."

Qiu Tang moved his foot away, asked Shisan for a bottle of medicine, turned around, walked to the box where the medicine was usually placed, pretended to take it from there, and threw it to her.

"Use it, don't die here."

Seeing Yan Qiuer doubtfully opened the medicine bottle and smelled it, then his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed: "It's a good thing."

After speaking, she lifted up her clothes and sprinkled the white powder on the wound.

Qiu Tang moved his wrist, but did not speak.

She waited for Yeon Chul to be well.

After it's done, let's count her for calling her 'big sister' just now!

The author has something to say: The eldest princess must attack this time!Wouldn't it be a pity for you to attack the master's name if you don't attack!
