Rebirth of the Faint Lord

The Empress Dowager lived in Renshou Palace. When Qi Junmu arrived, she was leaning on the warm seat with a sleepy look. Ruyan, the eldest maid of Renshou Palace, was beating her shoulders, while the rest of the servants stood quietly.

Ruyan is the favored court lady in front of the Queen Mother, and now she is always looked up to wherever she goes in the palace.

Bai Feng, the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital, has already checked the pulse of the empress dowager, and is describing her illness from the sidelines.When the emperor arrived, everyone naturally stopped what they were doing and saluted the emperor immediately.

Qi Junmu didn't ask them to get up immediately, but walked to the other side of another warm seat and sat down. He had an extremely handsome face, so he looked a little dumbfounded: "Why is the mother I'm sick, is it because the people in the palace didn't take good care of me?"

When Qi Junmu first ascended the throne of God, both the Queen Mother and his uncle Lin Xiao told him that his status was different, and he could not be the same as before, and he had to carry it all the time, so as to appear majestic.

Now even though there are thousands of emotions in his heart, his expression is still the same as before.

What Qi Junmu said was ordinary, but it was very serious in the ears of others. The maids and eunuchs who were serving all around hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty and asked the emperor to forgive them.

The queen mother frowned lightly, looked at Qi Junmu and said lazily, "It has nothing to do with them, it's because I know that the weather is getting colder, but I'm greedy for cold, and my stomach is cold."

Empress Dowager Lin, whose boudoir name is Mingzhu, is as bright and beautiful as her name.

She entered the palace as Jieyu at the age of 15, and gave birth to twins for Emperor Jing at the age of 17. The boy is Qi Junmu, and the girl is Fuhua. Fuhua is the first daughter of Emperor Jing and is the eldest princess.

Because of her meritorious service in giving birth to a dragon heir, she was named Concubine Shu.

The queen mother was also lucky. She gave birth to a boy and a girl back then, which was a sign of auspiciousness and double happiness.If two daughters are born, it is also a happy event to be celebrated, but if there are two sons in one birth, it is an ominous omen.

Since ancient times, twins have been considered unlucky, and they are known as "Kefu". Not to mention the royal family, even ordinary people are somewhat taboo.If twins are really born in one birth, the thin one must be abandoned or drowned, so as not to hinder the father's luck.

From this point of view, the Queen Mother, Qi Junmu and Fuhua are all lucky.

The queen mother is only 35 years old now, and because of proper maintenance, she looks like she is only in her 20s.Placed in Yingying Yanyan's harem, it is as beautiful as a flower bud in full bloom.

The Empress Dowager is really living a comfortable life now. At the time, there were countless beauties in Emperor Jing's harem, and he had an eccentric temperament, so he was favored today and tomorrow was forgotten.Even if he had a concubine with a dragon's heir, he would not deliberately look at it a few more times. The concubines in the harem were always served like walking on eggshells.

In Emperor Jing's eyes, he couldn't rub the sand, and he found out that the dirty methods in the harem were serious crimes, and they would implicate the nine clans.At that time, Emperor Jing sent his wife, Queen Wang, to fear that pregnant concubines would compete for favor and kill the emperor's heir.

Emperor Jing directly abolished the queen after checking, and all the Wang family of the previous dynasty were implicated. Wang's men served as slaves and women as servants. In one night, the Wang family changed from a high-ranking royal relative to a dirty woman that everyone can't avoid. After hearing about this incident, Queen Wang committed suicide in the cold palace, leaving behind the young eldest prince.

Since then, there has been no queen in the harem, and Emperor Jing is unwilling to be a queen.

Emperor Jing's methods were tough and arrogant, and everyone in the harem was in danger, but it was peaceful for a long time.

Emperor Jing had no particular preference for the concubines in the harem, and he didn't love them even if they were spoiled, even if they were concubines who were pregnant and gave birth to heirs, it was the same in Emperor Jing's heart.

In Emperor Jing's side, no one can be proud of being favored, and the wind from anyone's pillow can't blow into his ears.Of course, with Emperor Jing's temper, no one dared to whisper in his ear.

Except for the child who died young, Emperor Jing had four sons and two daughters in his life.

Qi Junmu has two older brothers, the eldest brother Qi Junyan, who is one year older than him, was born to the Queen, born stupid and implicated in the affairs of the Queen, Emperor Jing did not like it.

At the age of 16, he left the palace to build a mansion, and became Prince Rui. After Qi Junmu ascended the throne, he was granted the title of Prince Rui by grace.

The second elder brother, Qi Junyou, is handsome and full of knowledge. His mother comes from a Zanying family with a prominent family background. She entered the palace as Zhaoyi, and after giving birth to Qi Junyou, she was named a virtuous concubine. Qi Junyou was named King Ping when she left the palace and built a mansion at the age of 16.

There are two princesses in the palace, Princess Fuhua and Qi Junmu are twins. She was born a little earlier to be the elder sister. The second princess, Yueqing, is one year younger than Fuhua.

The last one is Qi Junzhuo, the youngest son of Emperor Jing, two years younger than Qi Junmu, and the fourth prince.

His mother was of a foreign race, and she was conferred the title of Concubine Rong when she entered the palace. She died of dystocia when she gave birth to Qi Junzhuo.He was born with light golden eyes, which were called flirtatious by others.After he was born, people in the world said that it was unknown that he would bring natural disasters to Daqi, and there were still people in the book who wanted to force Emperor Jing to grant him death.

Emperor Jing sneered, and ordered people to directly punish the old minister who said this, so that the world dared not speak again, and Qi Junzhuo survived.

The relationship between Qi Junmu and Qi Junzhuo is excellent, and Emperor Jing doesn't pay special attention to his offspring.He doesn't particularly care about the concubine in the palace or his children.As long as they live, he doesn't care how they live.

The princes framed each other and competed as long as they were not caught by Emperor Jing, that was their skill.

Therefore, even if the people in the harem became concubines, became concubines, and had princes, no one would dare to bully others.Emperor Jing's harem was peaceful, orderly, and the most depressing.

Qi Junzhuo has no mother and concubine to take care of him, and his family is far away from Daqi, so no one takes special care of him.He was taken care of by the palace people since he was a child. Except for not starving him to death, the palace people didn't take care of him very carefully, so that he couldn't speak when he was three years old.

The concubines in the palace will not harm him, but they will not take special care of him and let him live and die.When Qi Junmu was six years old, he met Qi Junzhuo who was bullied by the palace people in the cold palace. He took him back to Concubine Shu's palace and gave him a snack.

From then on, he had a little tail around him, and later Qi Junzhuo suffered a lot for him, and Qi Junmu really regarded him as his own brother.

When Emperor Jing was in power, he did not appoint a prince. He had the same attitude towards his four sons, and he ignored them at all. No one knew what the emperor was thinking.

No matter how much the princes thought about the throne in their hearts, they made small moves in private, but they didn't express anything on the surface.

The sudden death of Emperor Jing's illness was beyond anyone's expectation.What was even more unexpected was that Qi Junmu's name would be written on the imperial edict in the brocade box.Qi Junmu didn't expect it himself, he thought he would see blood if he wanted to sit in that position.

After all, he has two older brothers, one is more stupid, but the other is extremely intelligent and has a good family background.

It was the inner eunuch and Lin Xiao who were around Emperor Jing who read out the imperial decree. Naturally, other courtiers expressed their disbelief.But the edict was written by Emperor Jing himself, with a vermilion seal on it.

Besides, his natal family is also powerful, and they have given him a lot of support in private over the years.Now there is the last edict of Emperor Jing, and he ascended to the throne in this way under the complicated eyes of everyone.

Thinking about it now, it was quite unexpected and pleasant.

Qi Junmu lowered his eyes. After living for two lifetimes, he still hasn't figured out what Emperor Jing thinks and why he passed the throne to him.

But soon he stopped thinking about these things, no matter what his father thought, he is now the emperor of Daqi.

These things passed in Qi Junmu's mind, but nothing came out. He looked at Bai Feng.Bai Feng is very young, in his thirties, since he entered the palace, he has given Qi Junmu and the Empress Dowager a diagnosis of Ping An's pulse.

Baifeng's eyelids are extremely active. Facing Qi Junmu's gaze, he hurriedly explained the Queen Mother's illness. It was nothing more than greedy for cold and cold in his stomach. He just drank a few patches of medicine and avoided eating cold food in the future. .

Qi Junmu believed Bai Feng's words. He turned to look at the Queen Mother and said, "Queen Mother, how could this be your fault? In the final analysis, you, a slave in the palace, don't care."

After saying this, his tone darkened, his eyes darkened and he said: "For the sake of the queen mother, I will forgive you today. Next time, if you are not good at serving, you should all go to the execution department to be punished."

Qi Junmu's expression was a little sinister and distorted. The queen mother who was lying on the reclining was a little surprised. She sat up straight and tapped on the small table beside her with cardamom-painted nails: "What's wrong with the emperor today? In my palace Li loses his temper so much and sees blood, and when he comes to me, he is so angry. Bai Feng happens to be here, so let him take your pulse and get rid of the anger."

The implication is that she knew about the death of the eunuch in Qianhua Palace, and she was a little dissatisfied.After all, Emperor Jing had just died of illness, so seeing blood in the palace is not always a good thing.

Empress Dowager Qi Junmu's feelings are very complicated, loving and strict, sometimes too strict, when she loves her deeply, but when she is strict, she doesn't seem to be her own.

The Empress Dowager loved her daughter Princess Fuhua very much. She personally taught her the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and invited a famous teacher to teach her to read and write poems. Princess Fuhua was quite well-known as a talented woman in Daqi.Qi Junmu sometimes feels that their mother and daughter are the real relatives, and he has always been very envious of Fuhua in his heart.

But in the Empress Dowager's place, Fu Hua was not the most favored, but his uncle Lin Xiao's eldest son, Lin En, the cousin of the Lin family, was the most favored.Lin En was half a month older than Qi Junmu. When he was a child, half of his face was burned in order to save Qi Junmu. After he recovered from his injury, he has been living with half a silver mask, and he has been doing so ever since.

The queen mother was very grateful to Lin En and treated him very well. She once said to Lin Xiao that Lin En was Qi Junmu's benefactor at all times.In recent years, she still intends to point Fuhua to Lin En, but now that Emperor Jing has just passed away, it is not easy to mention this matter.

From this point of view, the Empress Dowager Qi Junmu is very concerned about it, otherwise she would not treat Lin En like this.Xu is just like what the queen mother said, Qi Junmu is a man and a prince, and getting power and family can only be placed in a secondary place.

As a king, too much emotion will appear cowardly.

She has great expectations for Qi Junmu. There is no woman in the palace who does not want to become the queen mother. She has been secretly working with the Lin family for Qi Junmu so that he can become an emperor.

After Qi Junmu really became the emperor, she was naturally quite happy.

On the first day Qi Junmu ascended the throne as emperor, his uncle Lin Xiao asked him if he wanted to be a wise emperor through the ages that everyone praised, or a foolish emperor that everyone feared and disliked.The word tyrant is used to describe Emperor Jing, the queen mother and Lin Xiao dare not mention this word, it is a bit disrespectful.

Qi Junmu has always had the heart to create a prosperous world, so of course he chose to be Mingjun.The queen mother was very satisfied at that time, and Lin Xiao also supported him very much.After all, Emperor Jing was too cruel and his temper was too distorted, making people always highly nervous and exhausted physically and mentally.

Lin Xiao said that if you want to be a wise king, you must have a heart of tolerance, and you must allow different voices to appear around you.Be respectful to your superiors, courteous to your inferiors, and listen to the opinions of ministers, even if the words are harsh.

In his previous life, Qi Junmu did as he did, sometimes he was really aggrieved, he was upset and wanted to show his wisdom and generosity, he won the praise of the courtiers in the court, and he was also loved by many people.

But the result was nothing more than three years later, he had a sudden stroke and was paralyzed on the bed, and was finally suffocated to death in the bedroom.

Thinking of his helpless and desperate struggle and suffocation before he died, Qi Junmu now feels that something is blocked in his throat and it is difficult to breathe.Now he has figured it out, being a wise king is the end, he might as well be a tyrant and a foolish king.

Living like his father, Emperor Jing, everyone dared not even look up at him, let alone suffocate him to death.

Things in the previous life were not so good. This is the Queen Mother's Renshou Palace. After all, Qi Junmu restrained all kinds of emotions in his heart.Now is the time for him to be clear about the enemy and the dark, and he doesn't want to startle the enemy too much.

So, facing what the queen mother said, he whispered a little shyly: "Queen mother, my son was nightmared during his nap today, and the servant made a mistake before he recovered. People were killed with sticks."

Of course, he just talked about it, anyway, the facts will not change, and the damned person will still be killed.

"This kind of clumsy slave is just dismissed. There is no need to see blood. Isn't this dirtying the gate of your Qianhua Palace?" The Queen Mother said with a slightly relieved expression.

She knew that every time Qi Junmu had nightmares, it was because he dreamed about Emperor Jing.

Emperor Jing held a lot of weight in the hearts of the princes. To put it another way, it could be said to be very shadowy. His indifferent words can make people's hearts chill.Besides, she also heard that Qi Junmu has been having nightmares recently, and in the middle of the night because of this, he dropped several sets of good porcelain.

Now that she has reached this point, it is hard for her to say anything more.

Bai Feng thought deeply, seeing that the Empress Dowager and the Emperor obviously had something private to say, he took the opportunity to propose going to the side hall to write a prescription.

The Empress Dowager waved her hand to make him and the rest of the palace retreat.

The Empress Dowager is now the most honorable woman in the whole world, she doesn't need to flatter anyone, she doesn't need to compete with others, even Qi Junmu respects her, and everyone in the world wants her, this life is better than her concubine Those days were refreshing.

When you are refreshed, you will feel better, and you will look extraordinarily young and beautiful.

She looked at Qi Junmu seriously and said: "You are the emperor, logically speaking, I should not interfere with your affairs, but you are young, and you must remember that some things cannot be controlled once they are opened. You are the emperor, you No one dares to comment on what you do, but the pen and ink of future history books will not show mercy to you."

Qi Junmu smiled slightly: "My mother's teachings, my son has remembered. Mother's mother knows that my son is honest and timid by nature, and I am afraid of seeing all this blood suddenly."

Queen Mother: "..." She felt that the child was a little smirk, but when she took a closer look, Qi Junmu in front of her was still looking like he was trying to be serious and steady, so she felt that it was him. I think too much.

The Queen Mother thought that Qi Junmu probably hadn't smiled for a long time, and when he wanted to laugh, his expression became a little stiff.

After she calmed down, she couldn't help but said, "Since I'm afraid, why do I have to open the palace door to see?" The door of Qianhua Palace was opened, and the emperor sat inside and watched the eunuch being beaten to death. , should soon spread throughout the palace.

Qi Junmu lowered his eyes and said embarrassingly: "The child has been dreaming about the dead recently, so he wants to see with his own eyes what it looks like when he dies."

Queen Mother: "..." She felt that Qi Junmu might be a little confused, and he would never say such stupid words in the past.

The queen mother was a little angry, but before she could speak, Qi Junmu raised her eyes and smiled at her again: "Don't worry, mother, the child is joking."

The Queen Mother finally couldn't bear it anymore, and called Bai Feng to come and feel the emperor's pulse.

Bai Feng left in a hurry and came back in a hurry. As soon as he put his hand on Qi Junmu's wrist, he felt a hot body temperature, and he said with a shocked face: "Forgive the queen mother, the emperor is sick, and his body is hot. "

The Empress Dowager's complexion changed suddenly, and she looked a little panicked and worried. She hurriedly helped Qi Junmu to lie down in the side hall, and asked Bai Feng to take his pulse.

Hearing Bai Feng said that the emperor just had an occasional cold and that he would be fine after taking a few doses of medicine, the queen mother was relieved, and she took a breath after scolding the palace servants who served Qi Junmu.

She said that something was wrong with Qi Junmu today, and it turned out that he was really sick and confused.She originally wanted to ask Qi Junmu about Shen Yi, why she wanted Shen Yi to return to Beijing, but now she can only give up.

Qi Junmu, who was lying in the side hall, opened his eyes under the curtain, with distorted pleasure on his face.He knew about this disease and calculated it.There must be a reason for the sudden change of the emperor's temperament.

Fever is the best excuse.

The hidden enemy will not be too vigilant because of this, but this is all temporary. Sooner or later, he will be able to do whatever he wants without making excuses.

No need to explain to anyone.
