Under the guidance of the prefect of Jinling, Qianlong quickly boarded Xia Yingying's painting boat.

At this time, by the Qinhuai River, She Shuxian and her entourage finally arrived, and they were about to board a boat to stop her. The local officials who were traveling with her pointed at the hazy water and said, "My Majesty, the Emperor has already boarded Miss Xia's boat."

"what!"

Before She Shuxian made a statement, the accompanying concubines stood up in shock.

The elder brothers were also panicked, and asked one after another: "Mother Huang, what should I do!"

She Shuxian sighed, and said: "Since it's done, we can only pretend that nothing happened, stay on the shore and wait for the emperor to come back after enjoying himself before admonishing him."

"The Empress really understands righteousness."

All the officials in the same industry flattered him.

She Shuxian didn't bother to listen to these compliments, and signaled them to back down. All the concubines and elder brothers drank tea and ate snacks in the pavilion by the lake, which was called appreciating the moon, and they were actually waiting for Qianlong's return.

When the moon was in the middle of the sky, Hong Zhou came suddenly and said to She Shuxian in a low voice: "Empress, there is something that I don't know whether to say or not."

Seeing Hong Zhou's flickering expression, She Shuxian got up, walked out of the pavilion, and said, "What is it?"

Hong Zhou said: "I just received the secret guard who led the emperor to go to the boat to meet Xia Yingying. The Jinling Tongjuan is closely related to the Red Flower Society's rebellious party. Tonight's boat listening to music is probably a conspiracy of the Red Flower Society!"

"and then?"

She Shuxian asked back.

Hong Zhou was stunned, then suddenly realized, and said: "What the queen said is very true. This matter concerns the dignity of the royal family. Regardless of whether it is true or false, it should be handled in a low-key manner, and no news should be leaked."

She Shuxian said again: "Your majesty is the king of a country. It is already out of style to go to the place of fireworks to listen to the music. If people still know that those who lead him to listen to the music and those who play him are all remnants of the rebellious party... this matter It will definitely become the laughing stock of all ages! For the current plan, the only way to do it is to keep a low profile, send people to clean up the Qinhuai bank, protect it secretly, and wait for the emperor to come out of the painting boat before making a fuss!"

"Indeed, that's the only way to go."

Hong Zhou sighed.

The matter had been discussed properly, and She Shuxian turned around to go back to the pavilion, but suddenly gorgeous red flowers burst out on the rippling river under the night!

boom!

Rumble!

After the loud noise, the surface of the river turned into a sea of ​​flames. There were burning boats everywhere, and the flames soared into the sky. Countless figures jumped into the river from the burning boats. From the depths of the flames, a clear and decisive voice came faintly.

"...Hunting, dreaming, ambitious, hard to pay, see you in the sky and on earth..."

Everyone on the shore was silent.

Hong Zhou, who was planning to solve the matter quietly, stopped in his tracks and exclaimed, "Brother Huang——"

The local official was so frightened that he shivered, fell on the ground and trembled, "Your Majesty, forgive me! My Lord forgive me! Seventh Brother, please forgive me! I don't know... I really don't know anything!"

"Now is not the time to hold anyone accountable!" She Shuxian said angrily, "Hurry up and send someone into the water to save the emperor!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Hurry up and save the emperor!"

Everyone came back to their senses, and the guards jumped down the Qinhuai River one after another like dumplings.

An elder brother suggested to shoot ten thousand arrows to kill the rebellious party, and She Shuxian said angrily: "Aren't you afraid of accidentally hurting your emperor Ama! It's important to rescue the emperor first!"

……

……

In order to assassinate Qianlong, the Honghua Society made sufficient preparations. In addition to filling up more than ten painted boats around it, they also poured a large amount of vegetable oil into the Qinhuai River. After the detonation, the fire burned for five hours before it was extinguished. It was burnt like charcoal, because the royal jade pendant and Tianhuang seal on his body were found by the servants from the pile of corpses, put on a dragon robe, stuffed into a golden nanmu coffin, and sent back to the palace.

Seeing this, the royal family all cried until the sky was dark. However, Qianlong's death in the Qinhuai River fire was extremely disgraceful. They could not make a big fuss, and they could not even publicly arrest the relevant personnel. Xun, took the coffin back to the Forbidden City in an emergency, and then declared a national mourning in the name of Qianlong's death from his injuries.

……

Full of rules, the husband dies, the wife cuts her hair as a condolence

Since Qianlong passed away, She Shuxian, as a model in the harem, naturally had to follow the rules.

In front of the concubine and brothers, she took the scissors, cut off a bunch of hair, and put it back on the Zhu Pan.

Seeing this, Yong Cong's expression sparkled, as if he knew something, but he didn't say a word.

After the queen had finished cutting her hair, Yong Cong invited the queen's mother to go to Zhengda Guangming Hall together, and Prince He Hongzhou took out the late emperor's edict in public.

The posthumous edict was announced, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs began to prepare for the succession ceremony of the new king. She Shuxian was about to be promoted to the empress dowager, and moved to live in Shoukang Palace with Qianlong's harem.

When the women were sitting together recalling the past emperor's life, a slave came in and reported, "Empress, the Wei family gave birth to a pair of twins."

"It's actually twins?"

She Shuxian sighed, and said: "The late emperor had ordered that Wei's children be handed over to Concubine Ying to be raised after they are born, but now that they have given birth to twins, Concubine Ying may have to work hard."

Concubine Ying heard the words and said: "My sister is very satisfied to have a daughter under her knees, and I ask the empress to distribute the boy to other sisters."

Concubine Shu stood up and asked: "My lady, I have an unfeeling request. Concubine Qing and my concubine love each other as sisters, but I have nothing to say. I beg your mother to send Wei's child to be raised by Concubine Qing's younger sister." .”

She Shuxian looked around and saw that no one objected, she agreed, "Okay, this child will be given to Concubine Qing's younger sister."

"Thank you, Empress!"

Concubine Qing and Concubine Shu thanked each other.

She Shuxian said again: "Although the Wei family made a big mistake, she gave birth to a pair of children for the royal family after all. I intend to keep her in the Yuanmingyuan to raise her and enjoy her life. What do you think?"

"The empress is magnanimous, and I am ashamed to be so."

The concubines said in unison.

……

……

Wei Yanwan and her children have already taken care of everything, and She Shuxian, who has nothing to do, stands in the pavilion in the imperial garden, looking at the stars that are about to go out in the sky, turning her head, and said to Yong Cong who appeared by her side at some time: "Yong Cong, Do you have something to ask Bengong?"

Yong Cong said: "My son did have a lot of questions that he wanted to ask Empress Empress, but now, my son doesn't want to ask anything anymore."

"Why?" She Shuxian asked.

Yong Cong said: "Because my son understands that everything the Empress Dowager does is for the country and the country of the Qing Dynasty. Since it is for the country and the country, naturally everything is right."

She Shuxian smiled and said: "It is true that everything I do is for the country, but the country has never only belonged to the Qing Dynasty or the Aixinjueluo family, it belongs to the tens of thousands of people who make up the country. Surname. Yong Cong, you have to remember that what the people’s livelihood refers to depends on the destiny of the country;
