Rebirth of the Faint Lord

Qi Junmu's head was groggy, his eyes were closed tightly, and he was floating up and down between half awake and half asleep.He couldn't open his eyes and felt weak all over, but he knew what was happening around him.

He knew that the Empress Dowager asked Bai Feng about his current physical condition, and he also heard her severely reprimanding the maids and eunuchs around him, saying that they did not serve well enough to make the emperor unaware of his illness.He also said that if the emperor made any mistakes, they would all be buried with him.

The mournful begging of the maids and eunuchs could not cover up the worry in the Empress Dowager's tone. If it was left in the past, Qi Junmu would naturally be happy about it.

But now, his head was dizzy with heat, but he couldn't help thinking, his mother was so worried and panicked, was she really worried about his health, or was she afraid that if he, the emperor, died suddenly, her queen mother's position would be unstable.

In his previous life, Qi Junmu's feelings for the Queen Mother had always been complicated. Before becoming an emperor in his previous life, he longed for his mother's love and care. Later, when he became an emperor, he deliberately forgot such thoughts, and he always wanted to be a wise king.

But there will still be some conflicts between their mother and son. If you want to be a wise king who is considerate of everything, sometimes you have to be ruthless about the overall situation. For this reason, he dismissed the empress dowager's face and told the empress dowager that the harem should not interfere in politics.

He remembered the eyes of the queen mother at that time, some were hurt, some were sad, and more of it was an indescribable complex anger.But he was unwilling to give in, and the rift between mother and child grew wider and wider.

His uncle Lin Xiao once said that his mother had a flamboyant and self-willed temperament when she was young. Since entering the palace, she has been living under the shadow of Emperor Jing, and her temper suddenly became extremely low-key, and she became quite restrained.

After becoming the empress dowager, there was finally no one to overwhelm her, so she wanted to live a more comfortable life.

At that time, he asked Lin Xiao back, "If my mother wants to be free, can I just give in? As a son of man, I can take a step back from my mother, but I am also the emperor, and I can't just because she is my mother. Give way in everything. My uncle always taught me how to be a wise king, and a wise king accepts others but not relatives."

Lin Xiao is silent.

The Empress Dowager had very high expectations for Qi Junmu. When he didn't become the emperor, he was looking forward to planning various things for him, and wanted him to become the emperor.When he really became the emperor, she became the empress dowager, gained power, enjoyed the respect and love of the emperor, and the flattery of everyone in the harem. He is obedient.

But half of Emperor Jing's blood is flowing in his bones, and he can't be an obedient puppet in his life.

It's better now. Going back to the way of the past, his attitude towards the queen mother has become indifferent.In other words, he became indifferent to everything and everyone, he just wanted to make himself happy.

He doesn't care what kind of wise king, tyrant or stupid king.

The young emperor was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. People are always vulnerable and helpless when they are sick, and the emperor is no exception.

The queen mother felt a little distressed, and it was rare for her to feed him the medicine tenderly. When Qi Junmu's forehead was covered with dense sweat, she was completely relieved.

The Empress Dowager put away the love in her eyes, she ordered the palace servants to take care of the sick emperor, and with the support of the maid Ruyan, she left the side hall, Bai Feng followed behind her.

After the Empress Dowager returned to the front hall of the main hall and sat down, Bai Feng stood respectfully to the side and said, "Don't worry, Empress Dowager, the Emperor is already sweating, I will prescribe some more medicine, and the Emperor will be fine after drinking it."

This kind of sure thing, Bai Feng naturally said firmly.

The queen mother nodded, although there was still some worry in her brows and eyes, she was no longer flustered.

The Empress Dowager looked at Bai Feng, and said in a cold tone, "Your Majesty's illness will be hidden from the doctor Bai first."

Qi Junmu has just ascended the throne, and his foundation is not yet stable. If it is reported that he is ill now, there will be disturbances in the court.There are people in this world who are looking forward to Qi Junmu's well-being, and there are also people who are looking forward to his early death.

Bai Feng bowed in response, but there was a little hesitation on his face.

The Queen Mother raised Liu Mei: "Why, do you have something to say?"

Bai Feng pursed his lips, hesitated and said softly: "Queen Mother, I just think that the emperor fell ill because he missed the former emperor, so there is no need to hide it."

There are countless pairs of eyes staring at the emperor in the palace, and the more you want to hide some things, the more you can't hide them.

The queen mother is also a smart person, after thinking about it, she smiled: "What the doctor Bai said is that the emperor is filial and affectionate, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty should be grateful for hearing this."

Bai Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and then retreated.

When Bai Feng left Renshou Palace, he happened to meet Fuhua and Princess Yueqing who came to pay their respects to the Queen Mother. They came here when they heard that the Queen Mother was unwell.

Fu Hua has fair skin, a beautiful face, and a gentle yet strong personality.

As the first daughter of Emperor Jing, she has a high status and has been carefully cultivated by the Queen Mother. She is good-looking and her gestures are dignified and reserved with a hint of arrogance.

In contrast, Princess Yueqing was very low-key due to her mother's low status, with a cautious expression on her face all the year round, for fear that she would be held accountable for making mistakes.

For example, at this time, even though she and Fuhua are both princesses, they both take a slight step down to show respect.

When Fuhua saw Baifeng, he asked the Queen Mother how she was.

Bai Feng answered truthfully, and told Qi Junmu that he was also ill but was ill.

The relationship between Fuhua and Qi Junmu is very good, after all, they are twins again, after hearing this, she frowned, and said with a displeased expression: "The people around the emperor don't know how to take care of them, such a big matter They didn't find out, damn it."

Her tone was the same as that of the Queen Mother, but what she said, no one else could say.

Yueqing stood there, looking worried, without saying a word.

The Queen Mother and Qi Junmu were both unwell, and Fu Hua was not in the mood to greet Bai Feng, so he nodded and walked towards Renshou Palace.

When I arrived at the main hall, I saw the Empress Dowager stroking her forehead and looking uncomfortable. Fu Hua didn't even do the courtesy, so he walked up to comfort him a few times and asked about Qi Junmu's condition. Yue Qing followed behind respectfully. Great gift.

The Empress Dowager rubbed the center of her brows, told Yue Qing to stand up, then looked at Fu Hua and said, "I'm fine, the emperor just took the medicine and he's fine."

Fuhua pursed his lips lightly, and said: "Mother, the emperor is gentle and generous to his servants. The empress has been ill these days and is unable to manage the harem. Now there is such a big mistake. If my brother hadn't come to you, I don't know that I would have become ill. What, you have to take good care of these daring slaves."

Hearing Fuhua mention the word "Queen", the Empress Dowager's expression paled. The Empress is Qi Junmu's first wife, Wen Shi, whose boudoir name is Wan.

The Wen family is the mother family of the Queen Mother's mother, this Wen Wan should be called the Queen Mother's first cousin according to her seniority.The Lin family has power, and the Wen family has soldiers. This is also the wife that the Queen Mother chose from thousands of times for Qi Junmu.

At the beginning, the queen mother looked down on Wen Wan, thinking that she was too thin to bear, but Qi Junmu liked it, and the Wen family only had such a prostitute in this generation.

Later, the queen mother also figured it out, and at most, she would help Qi Junmu choose a few women with innocent family backgrounds and gentle temperaments to serve by her side.

Speaking of which, Qi Junmu and Wen Wan had only been married for two months. What made the Queen Mother displeased was that Wen Wan was ill on the day of their wedding.

It's okay if there is no consummation of the house, and Wen Wan is just young, so it's okay to be two years late.

It's just that her condition had just improved, and when Emperor Jing passed away suddenly, Qi Junmu ascended the throne in a hurry, and Wen Wan became the queen.

After a lot of work in the huge harem, Wen Wan fell ill again. The queen mother was unhappy. If she had known that Wen Wan was so weak, she would never have let Qi Junmu marry her.

If Emperor Jing hadn't died of illness not long ago and Yu Wei was still there, the Empress Dowager really wanted to directly choose a few concubines for Qi Junmu to enrich the harem.

Now after hearing Fuhua's words, the queen mother said: "The queen's life is good, but her body is weaker."

Fuhua could tell from the Empress Dowager's expression that she was unhappy, so he hurriedly said: "You know, Empress, the Empress was in good health before, but this is because she was tired after entering the palace suddenly. I went to see her the day before yesterday, and the whole bowl of She drank the bitter medicine without blinking her eyes, if her daughter can't take it, it can be seen that she wants to get better soon."

The queen mother thought about the scene of drinking medicine gently, and felt that her mouth was so bitter, she gave Fu Hua a look: "You are the only one with a poor mouth."

Fu Hua smiled, and Yue Qing looked at the two of them with envy in his eyes.

@@@

Qi Junmu's body was a little sticky and wet. In his sleep, he faintly heard someone whispering that the queen came to pay her respects while sick.

Qi Junmu's heart trembled when he was shocked by the word "Queen". Suddenly, he seemed to have returned to the time when he was dying in his previous life.

He seemed to have suddenly gone from a high place and fell straight to the ground. He opened his eyes with a flick of his heart.

"The emperor is awake." A palace maid shouted joyfully, "Quickly report to the queen mother."

Qi Junmu sat up, only to hear the sound of hurried footsteps in his ears, and the joyful gasps were very noisy, he frowned and said coldly: "Shut up, all back down."

The room fell silent for an instant, the palace servants looked at each other, bowed their heads and quietly retreated.

Qi Junmu sat on the bed, looking at the empty palace in a daze.Wen Wan and the others have known each other since they were children. She is beautiful and charming, and he likes her in his heart.

Of course their luck was not very good, she fell ill before they got married, but the date of marriage was fixed, she married him with illness.

After she recovered from her illness, it just happened to be in time for Emperor Jing's filial piety period. As an emperor, he would be criticized for having fun with others while being filial, so he didn't touch her.She was weak, they hadn't been together, the queen mother didn't like it, and she was still young, so he always protected her.

Later, the queen mother asked him to be a concubine, but he refused because he saw Wen Wan secretly hurting himself. He always thought that when she recovered completely, they would have an eldest son first.

But Wen Wan's illness has been intermittent, and he has been waiting.The queen mother who was waiting didn't want to care about this matter anymore, Wen Wan suddenly told him that she was pregnant.

At that time, he was shocked, puzzled, and couldn't believe it. He hadn't even touched Wen Wan's finger. How did Wen Wan get pregnant, and whose child was it?

With the extreme anger, he suddenly became dizzy, and his legs went limp and he fell to the ground.He still remembers the way Wen Wan looked at him at that time, pity, pity, and disdain were taken for granted.

When he woke up again, he was diagnosed as having a stroke by the imperial doctor, and he could not speak and his hands and feet were inconvenient.Two days later, he died. He was smothered to death with a pillow in his sleep.

He's so useless, he hasn't seen the face of the sullen man, but he can feel it's a woman.

That feeling of suffocation gave him the urge to kill violently when he dreamed of going back to midnight.

Thinking of this, Qi Junmu's eyes seemed to have a layer of dark clouds, very gloomy.He gathered his clothes slowly, then got up from the bed and went to see the queen mother.

When he went, Wen Wan and Yue Qing were gone, and Fu Hua was sitting beside the Queen Mother talking.

Seeing Qi Junmu appear, Fuhua hurriedly stood up and said worriedly: "Your Majesty, are you alright?"

Qi Junmu hummed, walked up to the Empress Dowager and lowered his eyes and raised his eyebrows: "The child is very sick, and the Empress Dowager is worried."

The queen mother sighed: "You come to my place even when you are sick. I know you are filial. Next time, you must not despise your body like this."

Qi Junmu naturally agreed.

The queen mother said again: "The queen came here just now, she was still coughing, she wanted to see you, but I was afraid that I would make you sick, so I let her go back."

Qi Junmu's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was light: "The queen has a heart."

The queen mother hummed, and Qi Junmu then got up to leave and said that he was going back to Qianhua Hall to rest. He was really tired.

The queen mother and Princess Fuhua saw that his face was not good, so they didn't say anything, and they told the servants around him to let him go back.

When Qi Junmu sat on the imperial chariot and went back, it was already time to light the lamps.

The palace servants of Qianhua Palace reported that Qi Junzhuo had been waiting for him in the palace.

Only then did Qi Junmu feel happier. He opened the door and entered, and saw the person standing in the main hall.

Qi Junzhuo raised his eyes, and the light shone into his eyes, and there was a faint light flowing through those pale golden eyes, bright and dazzling.

Qi Junzhuo is handsome and has an obvious exotic style. He has a high nose, deep eyes, a sharp face, and a tall and straight figure.

He always has a cold face. In Qi Junmu's words, just by looking at his face, he feels that someone owes him money.

When Qi Junzhuo saw the emperor, he was about to salute, but just as he lifted his clothes and leaned over, Qi Junmu had already walked over to hold his arm, and said helplessly, "My brother, you don't need to be so troublesome in private. .”

Qi Junzhuo smiled, and the coldness disappeared from his face. He said seriously: "The emperor is now the emperor, and the ministers are ministers. The etiquette cannot be discarded."

Qi Junmu let go of him and shook his head. He walked to the imperial case and took out the map of the palace city that was pressed down in the booklet, and then waved to Qi Junzhuo with a smile on his face: "You came just in time. Look at Jianfu’s mansion, there are a few good places here, come and see if you like it. If you have a place you particularly like, let me know, and I’ll give it to you directly.”

When Emperor Jing died, he hadn't selected a house for Qi Junzhuo to build a palace, and he didn't have a title. He still lives in the palace, and now this matter fell on Qi Junmu.

Qi Junzhuo has suffered a lot for him, and he still has the scars from his original torture, which Qi Junmu had to bear.

In my previous life, I took care of this and that, and chose a fairly good site for Qi Junzhuo.

This life is different, he doesn't care about anything, so naturally he wants to choose the best palace for this younger brother.

Qi Junzhuo didn't care about the map of the palace city at all. He looked at the young emperor with displeasure on his face: "Isn't the emperor sick? Why don't you take a good rest and worry about what you are doing."

Qi Junmu looked at him, with a smile still on his brows: "I've already thought about your title, how about Jin?"

Qi Junzhuo's eye circles were slightly hot, he knew that if he didn't answer, Qi Junmu would not give up, and since he was a child, what the emperor wanted to do must be successful.

So he lowered his eyes and retreated helplessly: "The one chosen by the emperor is good for everything."

Qi Junmu nodded, and Zhu Bi circled a house with the largest and best environment on Zhuque Road, which is the closest to the palace, as Qi Junzhuo's palace.

He wants everyone to know that Qi Junzhuo is his favorite younger brother.

After he put down his pen after Zhu approved, Qi Junzhuo couldn't help but said: "Brother Emperor, it's time to call the imperial doctor here."

Qi Junmu agreed.

At this time, the booklet Shen Nian handed over from the northern border was on its way to the capital.

Shen Yi died of illness in the northern border, Shen Nian helped the coffin back to Beijing, the general's heroic soul returned to his hometown, and there was another turmoil inside and outside the court.
