64

The first thing after the New Year's Eve: the Empress Dowager is seriously ill.

Emperor Yongzhao was known as a filial son, and it is said that he immediately left Empress Zheng and a pair of children and hurried to Funing Palace.

Nan Ruo thought of the situation when the prince and Fu Zhuo left in a hurry that night in Shangyuan, and couldn't help feeling worried. Empress Dowager Fu is now the prince's biggest backing. If something happened to her, the prince's situation would be even more difficult.

The original text did not mention the specific year when the queen mother had the accident, but according to the time when the prince rebelled, it should be one or two years.

The scumbag father was called into the palace to accompany him at this time, and he never came back. If Nan Ruo wanted to ask him for news, he couldn't do anything.

After two days like this, the news finally came out. First, Qin Tianjian made some calculations, and there was a lot of terminology in the cloud. To sum it up, the queen mother suddenly became ill and was rushed to the hospital. After two years of being a monk and praying for blessings, the closer the relationship, the more useful it is.

And it just so happens that Empress Zheng is a tiger in February.

After one country, it is impossible to become a monk, but the Queen Mother became more and more ill. Empress Zheng stepped forward and expressed her willingness to do this kind of filial piety. A substitute became a monk on her behalf, while Empress Zheng stayed in the palace as a resident priest, copying scriptures and praying for the Empress Dowager.

On the second day after Queen Zheng set up the incense altar, the Queen Mother's condition improved greatly.

When Nan Ruozheng was dumbfounded by this operation, another imperial decree was passed down: the prince officially entered the court in February.

Nan Ruo then understood that if Empress Dowager Fu didn't make a sound, she would become a blockbuster. He was also surprised that the crown prince failed to choose a concubine. Empress Dowager Fu kept silent, so she was waiting here.

This is to pinpoint the weakness of Emperor Yongzhao's love of face, and it is also sure that Empress Zheng will take the initiative to stand up to protect her reputation. Empress Dowager Fu wished, Emperor Yongzhao himself also had this meaning.

Sure enough, the scumbag father came back from the palace and nodded: "It's almost what you think, but the queen mother is really not in good health..." He was tired, and whispered the inside story, "I'm already struggling..."

It turned out that the queen mother was ill five years ago, and she went to the mountain to worship the Buddha, not only because she didn’t want to see Queen Zheng, but also to avoid people. If she didn’t see people, the outside world would not know that the queen mother was sick. As long as the queen mother is stable, the Fu family and the prince will be stable .

This time the old lady's condition became more and more serious, and she came back only after seeing that she couldn't hide it.

"... Your Majesty is already so skinny that she swallowed bowls of soup and medicine. She is afraid that the Holy Majesty and the Crown Prince will be worried, so she will wait until later..." Nangong Yunlin said in a sad voice, "...you When the Holy Majesty asked me to go to the palace to do something, told me to accompany the empress to talk..."

Nan Ruo understands his feelings. Although Empress Dowager Fu has a quick temper, she can protect others. Anyone who is put into the camp by her will protect them with all her might. No less face to Nangong Jiazhuang, many of the imperial gifts in Zhao's hands came from Empress Dowager Fu.

Nangong Yunlin was able to speak well, and in the past he often went to the palace to amuse the old lady, even if he followed Emperor Yongzhao and turned towards Empress Zheng, the old lady didn't blame him.

After all, Empress Dowager Fu is both the grandmother of the prince and the mother of Emperor Yongzhao, and her son and grandson have fleshy palms and backs.

"Your Majesty still remembers you, and told me to take you to Funing Palace to show her..."

"Okay." Nan Ruo replied, Empress Dowager Fu was not bad to Xiao Ruogu either.

Empress Dowager Fu's move was really powerful, turning the situation around, but Nan Ruo was even more worried about the prince. This might be a big stimulus to him. The stimulus was good. Maybe the enlightenment figured it out and passed this hurdle, but one was not good. , I'm afraid it will only make the prince's illness worse.

After hesitating again and again, he wrote a letter of trust to Fu Zhuo and sent it to the prince.

Pepper House.

Empress Zheng was kneeling in front of the table and copying scriptures, and the fragrance of Buddha was lingering in the air.

One of Liu Jin and Qian Jin cuts paper, and the other grinds ink.

Qian Jin rubbed her sore wrist, and said quickly: "It's the hour, empress, get up and rest your legs."

Liu Jin glanced at the clock: "It's still half a tick away."

Qian Jin said, "It's because the servants are watching the errands. They just want to ask the empress to get up and rest."

Empress Zheng's expression was indifferent, and she carefully copied stroke by stroke, without taking into account the two people's words. She didn't put down the pen until the hour chime sounded, and stretched out her hand to ask the two people to help them up.

"Your Majesty, wait a little longer..." Liu Jin carefully let go of Empress Zheng's arm, "My maid asked someone to bring hot water."

He called out, and soon Mi Ling and two little maids came in with basins.

Liu Jin and Qian Jin squatted down and lifted up Empress Zheng's trousers, exposing her blue knees, and Mi Ling hurriedly wrung a towel to apply a hot compress.

Empress Zheng let out a long sigh of relief.

Qian Jin couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty has suffered a great crime this time, it's impossible to do this every day, it's going to drag you down..."

"What are you talking about!" Liu Jin hurriedly patted her.

Qian Jin was indignant: "The servant girl is wronged for the empress."

Empress Zheng said indifferently: "It's okay, since I have to pray sincerely, how can I be lazy, I just hope that my sincerity will not be in vain, and the Buddha will bless the Empress Dowager to live a long life."

In the past, she didn't believe in gods and Buddhas, but after timetraveling, she would rather believe that there are gods and Buddhas. If there are gods and Buddhas, she sincerely hopes that the queen mother will live a long life and enjoy the pains all over her body.

Back then, she was full of joy and wanted to please the queen mother, and she racked her brains to get people to make and send up anything that middle-aged and elderly people would like. She was not so devoted to her biological mother in her previous life. In her eyes, only she can't.

Think she doesn't know that the queen mother who had a miscarriage also intervened behind her back?

She was not the only one who harmed her. She had been thinking about the stillbirth that Kang Yi framed her for several years and couldn't figure it out. It was only later that she figured out that the queen mother was playing tricks inside. She only wanted a prince of the Fu family's blood!

Now that the old woman has been punished, it can be seen that God has eyes!

Empress Zheng felt happy.

Mi Ling twisted another handkerchief and put it on again, carefully deliberating: "The princess just sent someone to say hello to the empress."

"Call her over—forget it." Empress Zheng felt tired, "Tell Changle, tell her to be more behaved these days, and watch her and don't tell her to go and make noise with His Majesty, she should know something..."

In the past, she always thought that girls in this world were difficult, and couldn't bear to criticize Tianniang, so that she could be happy when she was in front of her parents, but now she is afraid that it will not be possible.

Since Xia Houyan wanted her to avoid her, he would avoid her. Anyway, in the past two years, his mother-child love has been fulfilled.

Empress Zheng mocked.

It happened that something happened in the south of the Yangtze River, she wanted to be silent for a while, so as not to arouse his suspicion, but unfortunately, men in this world look down on women, Xia Houyan would never think of what her real purpose is.

I really look forward to that day, she wants to take a good look at Xia Houyan's face.

Funing Palace.

The queen mother fell asleep, and the prince came out exhausted.

Fu Zhuo greeted him lightly: "How?"

The prince motioned to go out and said, the two of them sat down on the porch outside, the weather was fine today, and the afternoon sun at the end of winter gave warmth to their bodies.

"It's much better than the previous two days. If you continue to eat according to this prescription, it will relieve some pain." The prince said.

Fu Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good if it can relieve the pain." Seeing the bloodshot eyes of the prince, he persuaded, "Don't burn yourself out, go and rest when you need to rest, there are palace people here, and me, I will take good care of your mother, You still have to prepare for the imperial court."

The prince raised his hand and rubbed between his brows, and the long sleeves slipped down, revealing a section of his wrist.

"You..." Fu Zhuo quickly grabbed his arm and rolled up his sleeve, and he saw a series of scratches, and the color was obvious only a short time ago.

"Why—" he said in a hurry, looked left and right, quickly put down his sleeves, and lowered his voice, "Didn't you say that I haven't had an attack again, cousin, you're lying to me again!"

The prince was silent, his bloodshot eyes showed indifference, his eyelids drooped, and he said flatly, "One last time."

It was he who lost control, and when he came back to his senses, his hand had already swiped down.

Fu Zhuo's chest heaved, he didn't know who to vent his anger on, and in the end he just slapped the table twice bitterly.

Who is to blame, the empress is so devoted to the cousin, of course the cousin can't blame the empress, he has to be grateful, otherwise he is a wolf-hearted dog, but who asked the cousin beforehand if he is willing!

Serving the empress these few days, every painful moan/groan of her was like a huge mountain pressing down, even he felt suffocated.

"Cousin, let's go." He suddenly said, "Go far away, the farther the better!"

If this goes on like this, sooner or later something will happen!

The prince was dumbfounded, and raised his eyelids to comfort him: "Don't worry, it's really the last time."

He should almost figure it out.

Fu Zhuo knew that he had said something stupid, so he was discouraged: "I have heard this more than once, how can you tell me to believe it?"

The prince suddenly looked at him as if he wanted to say something.

"What's the matter?" Fu Zhuo was puzzled, his eyes widened and his eyes narrowed. Suddenly, Ding Fu took out a letter from his bosom, "You want to ask Nangong? I almost forgot. He asked me to bring you a letter. I'm afraid of losing it..."

The letter in his hand was taken away before he finished speaking, and the naked eye could see that the person who had been tense for several days relaxed.

Fu Zhuo had a faint understanding in his heart.

The prince opened the letter and read it word by word. At the end, a smile appeared on his lips, and he seemed to be in better spirits.

Fu Zhuo affirmed the speculation in his heart, and secretly made a decision in his heart.

The matter between the empress and the empress dowager Nan Ruo is still in the dark. For him, the first major event at the beginning of the new year is to search the house.

Emperor Yongzhao seemed to have made up his mind to turn Luanyiwei into a Jinyiwei. After the Shangyuan, he officially appointed Tan Ying as the commander of Luanyiwei, and gave Luanyiwei the power to investigate and arrest.

The first one to bump into him was Xue Weiren, the political adviser.

Yushitai's first senator in the first year of the year, together with the Zhongshu Provincial Counselor, accused Xue Weiren of accepting bribes from officials, framing Zhongliang, and not maintaining the concubine system in the inner house. The evidence is conclusive.

Emperor Yongzhao ordered Luan Yiwei to arrest and investigate.

Tan Ying immediately gathered his subordinates and rode straight to Xue's residence. Nan Ruo was not only among them, but was also called by Tan Ying to take care of him.

"Don't be soft-hearted when you go in later, don't forget our duty."

"Yes." Nan Ruo replied.

Tan Ying led a group of school lieutenants to rush in like wolves and tigers, arresting anyone they saw along the way, and kicking down and beating anyone who resisted.

Nan Ruo hesitated for only two seconds, stepped forward and kicked the door open, facing the screaming and panicked female relatives in the room, said coldly: "You kneel down, the master will take you all away!"

The huge Xue Mansion was bustling and overturned in a short while, and Xue Weiren was dragged out of the gate like a dead dog by the school captain.

Nan Ruo glanced at the tall plaque, rode his horse and swung his whip away.
