Mrs. Mo said he would not agree

The smell of blood in front of Changle Palace lingered for a long time, and even the palace staff changed a lot.

The new emperor did not deal with the rebellion immediately, but focused on the funeral of the late emperor.Because of the late emperor's last wish of keeping everything simple, the new emperor only allowed members of the royal family to participate in the sacrifice, and did not allow courtiers, officials and female relatives to enter the palace.

However, although the new emperor avoided the red tape that bothered people, he imposed it on himself.

It is not easy to survive July 49.

The days of kneeling and fasting made him thin, and the clothes that originally fitted him were much wider.No matter how harsh the officials are, they can't say "no". The new emperor's mourning for the death of the former emperor is too vivid, and it is difficult to describe it in a play.

When the first emperor was alive, Xu Shi had already guessed that his life was approaching, so he built his imperial mausoleum early.

And another day, the spirit car will be sent to the Mingling.

In the middle of the afternoon, the Empress Dowager woke up in the Fengluan Hall, and the female officer Fengyi hurriedly leaned over to wipe her face, and helped her to sit up again, "Your Majesty, you fainted in front of the hall, Your Majesty sent you back personally, please The old doctor came to see it, and said that it was distressing, and I needed a good rest."

The female officer said softly.

The Empress Dowager looked pale, and gave a wry smile, "No matter how sad I am, can I compare to... the emperor?" As if she was not used to it, the Empress Dowager paused before saying.

Gongye Qida was brought up by the late emperor himself when he was a child. Whether it was reading and writing, or the power of the emperor, it was all honed by Emperor Yongning.

He loved this prince who was born with a disease very much, just like himself who was too weak back then.

The first emperor seemed to regard this as the fate of the royal family.

There is always something imperfect.

He is, and so is Gongye Qi.

Even if the crown prince suffered from madness, the first emperor sent someone to hide everything.

Although there are no rumors, but after all, the prince is still young, there will always be times when traces are revealed.

after all……

Thinking about the past, the queen mother sighed.

Back then the crown prince was young, and the Zhang family also had children of the same age. They originally planned to serve as attendants to the crown prince in the future, so Zhang Zhe was brought into the palace at the birthday banquet that year.Unexpectedly, at such a young age, Zhang Zhe has already been spoiled by the whole Zhang family. Even when facing the crown prince, he doesn't have the respect he deserves, and even speaks nonsense in front of the young prince...

Then, Zhang Zhe was terrified.

The little prince killed the attendant he brought into the palace in front of him, and then smeared it on his face with blood stained with a smile.

This is the first time that the prince really lost control.

Because Zhang Zhe casually insulted Emperor Yongning.

That almost scared Zhang Zhe crazy. After returning home, he had a high fever, almost burning out his brain. After waking up, he completely forgot about it.But so what if he forgot, when he mentioned entering the palace, he was so frightened that he burst into tears, and... the child forgot, how can adults forget?

The Empress Dowager will never forget how Emperor Yongning knelt down beside the little prince across the pool of blood. He softly coaxed the little prince, removed the weapon in his hand, and hugged him like a child.

She closed her eyes.

The little prince at that time was indeed a child, but which child would be like this?

Like a madman.

Emperor Yongning coaxed the child, and he squinted in his arms for a while, not even for a long time. After waking up, looking at the scarlet under his hands, he said, "Is this blood?" with cruel ignorance.

At that moment, the Queen Mother knew that he didn't remember either.

The little prince didn't know anything about what he did when he was crazy and the disasters he caused.

"What trouble did he cause?" After comforting the little prince to rest, Emperor Yongning heard the queen say this outside, raised his eyebrows and said, "What trouble did he cause?"

The queen's face was ugly, "Your Majesty, you always knew?"

Emperor Yongning patrolled the surroundings with his hands behind his back, but he didn't answer, and ordered Xia Ze to come in first, "All the palace people I saw today, except the ones the prince loves, should be killed."

He said lightly.

Even the Fengyi female officer next to the queen is the same.

"His Majesty!"

"Empress," Emperor Yongning said calmly, as if it was a big deal, "I turn a blind eye to many things about the Zhang family, but it's not for the sake of letting the Zhang family get on top of the crown prince."

The queen was stunned, "I don't have..."

"The crown prince is the crown prince, and he is the successor after the widow's great success. Not to mention a few attendants, even if Zhang Zhe killed him today, this fact can't be changed. I hope the Zhang family can remember this."

At that time, the queen didn't understand what Emperor Yongning's warning was for, and she didn't know the Zhang family's mistakes again and again until Donghua paddock.

She sat in the dark, with life beating under her palm.

This is her second child.

The doctor said it would be a boy.

The queen closed her eyes in pain, called the female officer in, and whispered a few words.

"Miss!"

"I let you go!"

So half a month later, the news of the queen's pregnancy spread outside the palace.

Since then, there have been no rumors of pregnancy.

Gongye Qihui is the crown prince, and he will only be the crown prince, there will be no second choice.

"Niangniang, Niangniang..."

The empress dowager was so dazed that her thoughts drifted away for an unknown amount of time, and it took her a long time to be called back, she took the decoction and then slowly lay down.She closed her eyes and thought carefully, fearing that after the ceremony and funeral, there would be another disturbance.

The blood in Changle Palace has not been washed clean yet.

...

Although civil and military officials do not have to bow down every day for the funeral ceremony on July 49, the old rituals still have to be followed.

After finally going through the last few etiquettes, Mo Jingchun's gait was trembling when he returned home. He didn't even bother to eat, so he slept hard for half a day, from the afternoon to the next morning.

In order to comfort the old lady, he went to the main courtyard to eat with him for breakfast.

The old lady looked at his thin appearance distressedly, and hurriedly asked him to eat more.Mo Jingchun smiled and said: "Grandmother, I have practiced martial arts anyway, and I have lost some weight because of being tired these days, but I am not sick."

Xu Sumei sighed and said: "Thanks to the kindness of the late emperor and His Majesty's kindness, otherwise I will be fine. It is really difficult for grandma to go through this whole thing."

Mo Jingchun: "Grandmother should be able to ask for grace at her age."

Xu Sumei shook her head with a smile, "That's what I said, but what about this His Majesty..." She frowned slightly, not knowing how to describe it.

The misfortune of Concubine Li and the matter of Changle Palace cannot be regarded as a secret.

Although there were all important officials in the court at that time, they might not say too much, but just a few words can make people feel the horror of the meeting and the bloody terror in front of the apse.

This new emperor is by no means as benevolent as Emperor Yongning.

Mo Jingchun: "Your Majesty is a bit ruthless, but it's also because of Concubine Li who pushed her too hard. He has a deep relationship with the late emperor, and it was normal for him to do something like this when the late emperor was away."

Xu Sumei nodded her head, thinking about it in her own shoes, this is also the reason.

Mo Yuanze was eating at the side, and suddenly said, "Uncle, did you change the spice?"

Mo Jingchun was slightly surprised, "I changed it some time ago." The incense used before was to block the smell of piss, so it was very strong.After using it for a period of time, he still didn't quite get used to it.

But the punishment was over, so he changed to a light one.

Mo Yuanze wrinkled his little nose. Although he got the answer, he felt that it was not spice.

But that's all he said, and in a blink of an eye, the child forgot about it.

Mo Jingchun still had something to do, and he didn't take it to heart, he just ate some more and was ready to go to court.

Although the new emperor had been enthroned for two months, he was busy with the late emperor's affairs, even taking time out to deal with government affairs.

However, because of the funeral ceremony of the first emperor, since the new emperor ascended the throne, there has not been a formal court meeting, and today can be counted as the first time.

Gongye admired the mysterious, and the emperor and the crown prince's crowns were all black, with occasional red embellishments.

The new emperor wears a crown and clothes and stands on the palace, accepting the worship of all officials, just when the morning sun breaks and the sun rises.

The new emperor changed to Yuan Zhengshi.

In the first year of Zhengshi, the first major event was to deal with the rebellion of Concubine Li.

According to the laws and regulations, those who conspired should be punished according to the law, and they belonged to the same family.

Concubine Li's father is Xu Boheng, the chief assistant of the court, and his son is the eldest prince, who is of royal blood.This made it difficult for the judge to make a decision, but before a verdict could be drawn up, news came from the prison that Concubine Li hanged herself to apologize.

The chief culprit was put to death, and Xu Bo was killed by the emperor himself during the rebellion, leaving only the accomplices.

Emperor Zhengshi killed all the rebels in the Forbidden Army, but his family was not affected.He demoted the eldest prince to a commoner and sent him to guard the imperial tomb.

As for Xu Boheng's request for resignation, he suppressed it.

After counting them one by one, there was no big move, even the Queen Mother was surprised.

Everyone praises His Majesty's benevolence.

However, Mo Jingchun had the illusion that this was not the new emperor's habit, he was a character who would retaliate, and the reason why he tolerated it like this was probably for the sake of Emperor Yongning.

However, once the emperor and the courtiers, apart from the small changes in the cabinet, there are also some quiet disturbances in the court.Because of Liu Cunjian's relationship, the Liu family was exceptionally prominent in the appointment of officials this time.

Mo Jingchun had expected many adjustments in official positions, except for himself.

Mo Jingchun was transferred to Zongzheng Temple.

The Gongye royal family has lasted for more than ten generations, and there are naturally many descendants of the clan.The former dynasty ordered the fifth emperor to beheaded, and the Gongye royal family also inherited this point and established Zongzheng Temple.

Zongzheng Temple is actually one of the nine temples, not the one with the highest power, but the one with the most dignified status.

After all, it is in charge of all the affairs of the royal family, whether it is the marriage and heirs of the clan, rewards and punishments, household registration, land, population and various royal transactions are all under the management of Zongzheng Temple.

It is also necessary to inform the emperor of the impeachment first when the clan's behavior is not correct and the conduct is improper.

In short, this is an important, yet offending place.

Mo Jingchun even drooped the hair of the rabbit's tail.

Generally speaking, Zongzheng Siqing is from the third rank, but Gongye once set it as the third rank, and usually chooses people with high morals and high prestige, after all, it is extremely difficult to deal with.

As soon as Mo Jingchun received the transfer order at the court, Liu Hao invited him to the Imperial Study Room at the next court.

After Gong Yeqi succeeded to the throne, Liu Hao naturally became the servant in front of the palace.

After Xia Ze recovered from his illness, he invited him to guard the imperial tomb.

The new emperor gave a reward of one hundred gold with a wave of his hand, and agreed to the matter.

Liu Hao said in a low voice: "Your Majesty was invited away by the Empress Dowager just now, please wait here."

Gong Yeqi became the emperor, and the original prince and Taifu naturally became a false post. At this time, Liu Hao did not call Mo Jingchun's official position, but said that the false post was just to show his closeness.

After the Changle Palace incident, Mo Jingchun was no longer as unknown as before.

Liu Hao was amazed that he was able to drag the mad emperor away, and Liu Cunjian even sighed with him in private about the critical moment.It's not that Liu Cunjian didn't know how much criticism Gong Yeqi would cause when he killed the eldest prince at that time, but it was difficult for him to take such a step in the face of the prince's fierce and cold murderous intent at that time.

Mo Jingchun: "Eunuch, don't bother, I'll just wait here."

The emperor was called away by the empress dowager, but Liu Hao was left alone to wait here, which was more or less important. Mo Jingchun knew it in his heart, but he was just a little inexplicably terrified.

I am afraid that His Majesty will say something more.

Ever since that weird rubbing of the rabbit's tail, Mo Jingchun has never met Gongyeqi in private again, occasionally a few times close contact, he can faintly see the black marks under the emperor's eyes, he may have suffered a little .

But at the same time, he also got a reminder that the enthronement mission was completed.

[Mission objective: assist Gongye Qi to succeed to the throne]

【completed】

[Completion evaluation: overfulfilled]

[Reward: The next punishment will be halved]

This reward is neither good nor bad.

Thinking of the possibility of another punishment, Mo Jingchun was exhausted, after all, the rabbit tail was still there.

This rabbit tail still has half the satisfaction to grow, it is really amazingly slow.

Liu Hao asked Mo Jingchun to sit down, and chatted with him casually, "I heard that the Grand Tutor has no heirs yet, when you get married again, you can talk to your servant, and this servant will send you some congratulatory gifts."

Mo Jingchun smiled wryly, "Eunuch Lao remembers, I'm afraid it won't work in a short time."

Liu Hao nodded: "Yes, after all..."

The first emperor had just passed away, although the people were not allowed to mourn for him, nor did he have to be a vegetarian and abstain from sex, he was allowed to continue to marry, but... the courtiers lived under the new emperor, and they had to act according to the new emperor's face.

The new emperor admired the former emperor and respected him a lot, so he couldn't get into trouble at this time.

"If Master has a suitable candidate, I can ask for an order."

The sudden words frightened the two people in the hall to look quickly, and found that the new emperor appeared outside the door at some time, and was casually stepping in: "What kind of woman do you want? Prettier, or soft-tempered?"

Liu Hao retreated his eyes knowingly, and Mo Jingchun stood up and saluted, "Thank you for your kindness, but I really don't have this kind of thought." It is indeed a grace to be married by the emperor, but what happened next Trouble, Mo Jingchun is absolutely unwilling to provoke.

Gong Yeqi didn't change his royal uniform, but he wore the solemn imperial robes, showing the appearance of an emperor, and he was angry when he was not powerful.He walked in, raised his eyebrows and said, "Isn't the world just looking for the succession of the family?" The wide sleeves moved slightly, as if there was a faint smell of blood.

Mo Jingchun: "There are already ministers and elder brothers in the lineage, many ministers are not many, and young ministers are not many."

It's not like he didn't have a chance.

Hui Niang was pregnant, but she was unwell, so she specially moved to a small courtyard in the suburbs, just to feel fresh and at ease.Mo Jingchun would visit her occasionally, but before giving birth, Hui Niang fell and gave birth to a stillborn baby.

Said it was a girl.

From then on, Hui Niang became seriously ill, and she often cried until she died.

Mo Jingchun thought, maybe he is destined to have no heirs, so there is no need to force it.

Gong Yeqi asked Mo Jingchun to sit down and talk, but he paced in front of the window, "If Master has a child at home, maybe he can point out a child relative."

Mo Jingchun pursed her lips, "Your Majesty..."

"The princess gave birth to a son ahead of schedule, just now."

Mo Jingchun was slightly surprised, he couldn't complain that there was a smell of blood just now, and he was afraid that His Majesty had hugged the child.

However, the princess?

Although the new emperor has never issued an edict, his concubines in the East Palace should naturally become his harem after he ascends the throne, and the crown princess should also become the queen.

Even if it's just a name, why is it the princess?

Gong Yeqi seemed to know Mo Jingchun's confusion, and said with a strange smile: "Because she knows that the widow will not give it."

So I dare not ask for it.

Mo Jingchun caught a glimpse of the harem's secrets from the emperor's smile, and immediately regretted the unfolding, but the emperor seemed to have found someone who could speak, but he didn't stop.

"She started it early this time, and it was Cai Ji who did it. The princess concubine has a lot of contacts. Before the imperial doctor arrived, she sent someone to take Cai Ji to the sinking lake, saying that she accidentally fell."

... Mo Jingchun is full of suspicions, is the emperor's harem affairs so sinister?

"Guess, master, how do you know that Cai Ji was killed by the concubine's people?" Gong Yeqi's smile became darker and colder, making Mo Jingchun's scalp tingle.

Mo Jingchun: "...Yes, another concubine?"

Gongye Qi laughed loudly, "That's right, it's indeed Liu Ji. The Crown Princess's people wanted to kill her, but she escaped, and finally begged the Queen Mother."

This is really...

The princess concubine has an extraordinary background. Compared with high-ranking officials in the court, she is the daughter of a powerful family.

Jiao's.

The Jiao family did not have many people who became officials in the court, but they have always enjoyed a good reputation. Why did the princess concubine act so viciously?

"Because the person who pushed Cai Ji to do it was Liu Ji. And Liu Ji didn't expect Jiao's daughter to act like this."

Listening to what His Majesty said, Mo Jingchun hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty doesn't seem to like it..."

He didn't finish his words, but his intention was reached.

On the contrary, Gong Yeqi shook his head, and said lightly: "Whether it is the Crown Princess Jiao, or Liu Ji and Cai Ji, whatever they want, they are all asking for it themselves. They regard themselves as capital, but none of them dare to do it in front of the widow. Show off.

"The princess is bolder than the other two."

After all, it is decisive.

The Crown Princess could see clearly that no one would enter the palace for at least a year.And if she was able to leave the emperor's heir safely, and there was a reason why she was almost victimized, she would not be punished even if she did something.

She earned at least one year for herself, and also gave the child in her womb a chance to grow up for a year.

Young children are the most innocent and the most vulnerable.

Mo Jingchun was speechless, these words were all hidden, how could the emperor casually confide in them?After thinking about it again and again, he still couldn't help persuading him, but he said it more tactfully than the straightforward one before.

Gongye laughed and said, "I'm telling my master, not others."

Mo Jingchun: "..." It's only worrying to tell him!

How can he be!

Why is His Majesty's attitude so weird now?

When Mo Jingchun went out, his mind was full of royal secrets.

Gong Yeqi told him a lot like a joke.

Not only the matter of the harem, but also the princes of the previous dynasty, who are fond of beauty, who have a bunch of children in their families, and some who like to play with wood, but are pure carpenter princes, who else is plotting to do wrong, who has the same relationship with the court The ministers had a close relationship...all kinds of things made Mo Jing feel dizzy when he heard it.

As a new official, he has to go to Zongzheng Temple.

Afterwards, he became Minister Zongzhengsi.

Gong Yeqi watched Mo Jingchun go out with deep eyes, and took another deep breath.

That's right.

There seemed to be a faint fragrance on Mo Jingchun's body, which was faintly visible and hard to catch.

Just a slight sniff, but it makes people intoxicated like an addiction.

It was the dark fragrance smelled in the side hall of Changle Palace that day.

...

When Mo Jingchun arrived at Zongzheng Temple, Shaoqing, Cheng and others surrounded him.

The attitudes of several people were very friendly and their words were gentle, and they all introduced him to the new Shangguan.If it weren't for the mountains of various files, Mo Jingchun wouldn't have such a headache.

Only then did he know that a person in charge of Zongzheng Temple had died in office as early as the death of the late emperor. Due to the turmoil in the court and the turmoil of hundreds of officials, the two young ministers had always been supporting them. Unmovable major events still have to wait until the new official takes office.

Mo Jingchun sweated a lot, and when he sat down at the table and picked up the file, he was already fully prepared to touch his forehead, but he didn't expect to open it, and the first thing reported was very familiar.

It is said that King Xu Huai wants to marry his son.

His Majesty had just teased him that King Xu Huai had a lot of sons, but he couldn't give birth to a daughter.Every time a son gets married, the government must allocate money to present the marriage ceremony, but some of them are registered in the register, and some cannot.

Some even have the title of illegitimate children.

King Xu Huai also pretended to be stupid, no matter whether they were on the roster or not, he always reported them together.

Mo Jingchun: "First find out the roster of King Xuhuai's lineage, and see if there is a record of this name on it. If there is, report it according to the regulations. But don't worry, there is something in the court recently, King Xuhuai I'm afraid the wedding won't be held so soon."

Don't say it's about getting married, even about getting married and other memorials, I'm afraid there won't be any this year.

Shaoqing of Zongzheng Temple was slightly surprised, he didn't expect the new Shangguan to know the inside story, which made them less angry.After all, they all thought that after taking office, one of them would take over the position, but they never expected that the new emperor would be so generous and directly appoint someone who had never been in contact with.

Although Mo Jingchun is the crown prince and grand tutor, he has been in the Hanlin Academy all year round. It is a place that is extremely noble but ignorant of worldly affairs. practical.

Mo Jingchun was also aware of his own situation, so he didn't say much, but occasionally offered some advice on some matters, and passed the first day in peace.

After returning to Mo's mansion, when Mo Jingchun was soaked in hot water and exhausted, he picked up the doubts about summoning His Majesty today again.

The emperor seemed to have nothing to do with him to chat with, but intentionally or unintentionally told him the inside story of the clan as a joke, but it took more than half an hour to plug his ears. This is... Your Majesty's enthusiastic help ?

Mo Jingchun's expression became strange.

If this is the case, then His Majesty's help is really...very real.

Mo Jingchun thought awkwardly.

For example, although he knew about King Xuhuai, he didn't know that King Xuhuai had many heirs, and he didn't know that King Xuhuai had such a character. When he saw the report, he would only say that he would act according to the old routine.

The two young ministers would never do anything for the Shangguan, so they would just follow the previous practice and directly invite them.

If he waited until the steps were completed and found out that he was an illegitimate child... just like the surprise when he was not found on the list today, then Mo Jingchun would definitely die.

But... the question is, why did His Majesty do this?

Mo Jingchun grabbed a handful of wet long hair and pushed them behind his back. Could it be for the gift of rubbing his tail a few times before?

The more he thought about it, the more strange he became, and he crawled out of the barrel silently.

The snow-white hair ball behind her was completely wet, revealing a small existence.The rabbit tail is actually not big, but the fluffy and soft hair gives this illusion. After absorbing the water, the whole ball loses its spherical shape and drips wetly.

Mo Jingchun wiped his hair half dry before wiping his tail slowly.

The tail was rubbed so far that it was out of shape.

He thought of another thing His Majesty said today.

Obviously, the ruling and opposition parties will know the good news of the Holy Son tomorrow, but what follows is the news that the two concubines in the harem have died of illness.The queen mother will not let Liu Ji, who knows the inside story, survive.

What she will protect is the reputation of the royal descendants, and she will never be a mere concubine of the Eastern Palace.

After this round, the Crown Princess has won a complete victory, and even her actions against other concubines in the palace were suppressed.

Because she gave birth to a royal heir.

But even more because she gave birth to an imperial heir, Mo Jingchun silently felt that the crown princess might not be able to be an empress.

In addition to His Majesty's weird attitude, it is also because of Jiao Shi.

The imperial court has been trying to suppress the prestige of the aristocratic family. If Jiao's daughter is the queen, with the eldest son of the emperor at her knees, it will be far more difficult to deal with than the situation of Concubine Li.

Mo Jingchun brushed the tip of his tail casually, pinching out a little water mark.

He said to himself: "Not everyone will be the first emperor."

Especially the new emperor.

...

The Queen Mother is already preparing to move out of Fengluan Hall.

After all, Fengluan Hall is the residence of the queen, and she is now the queen mother, so she naturally has the palace where the queen mother should live.The Empress Dowager was not dissatisfied with this, and had already started preparing for it.

It was just yesterday's farce that gave her a headache.

"Your Majesty, there are two nannies I have prepared in front of me, but I can't make it, and only one is suitable."

The Queen Mother rubbed the center of her brows, "Let's face it first, how about the little prince?"

"I cried twice yesterday, but everything is normal."

Knowing that the prince is safe, the Empress Dowager feels at ease.After all, she was born more than a month early, and she was afraid that the womb would be sick, so she directly called two imperial physicians to wait in the side hall, in case something happened and it would be too late.

After confirming the prince's side, the queen mother planned to start the matter of the crown princess.

Cai Ji was dead, the body was fished out of the lake last night, Liu Ji was bestowed to death by her, Bai Ling died immediately, only the crown princess... the queen mother was extremely angry and even had a headache.

The emperor has always disliked the harem, and the queen mother knew it well.

Women who have entered the palace are not very sensitive. Even if they have never actually seen Gong Yeqi's madness, after staying in the palace for a long time, there will always be some unpleasant rumors.

This is something that Emperor Yongning couldn't kill even if he banned it again and again.

If there was only fear, Qi'er's temper would be ignored at most, but these people had their own ideas, and they implicated the prince at that time several times, so far he completely turned his back and never paid attention to it.

especially……

The Queen Mother sighed quietly.

Gong Yeqi didn't know why he was so indifferent to his son's offspring, and he never cared about the children who had accidents in the battle. It was always the crown princess who said what, and let them go.On the surface, it is to treat the Crown Princess generously and give her face, but in fact, if this is the case, why is the Crown Princess not only guarding against the two concubines after she becomes pregnant, but also afraid of seeing the Crown Prince in person?

The princess just guessed that if she wanted to keep the child, the biggest crisis would not come from Shi Ji, but from Gong Yeqi!

Because of this, the queen mother had no choice but to take the little prince to her side.

The female officer was standing beside the queen mother, slowly pressing her shoulders, "If the queen mother wants to, why don't you take the little prince under her knees and raise her?"

"If the Ai family wants this child to survive, they must do so. But if they want to raise a prince, it will be a lot worse." The queen mother was upset.

The female officer was surprised, "But the little prince was just born..."

Have you already thought of succession to the throne?

The queen mother smiled bitterly: "The Ai family thinks that in the past few years, apart from this little grandson, no other heirs will be born."

For the sake of the imperial court, the crown princess should not be the empress; but for the sake of the little prince, she can't die now, at least not because of this matter.

The queen mother made up her mind.

At this moment, there was movement outside the hall, and it was His Majesty who came to see him.

These days, Gong Yeqi would always come to visit the Empress Dowager in the early morning, especially when she was unwell, every day.The queen mother was relieved, and naturally wanted to solve the current troubles for the emperor.

After Gong Yeqi heard the Queen Mother's thoughts, he just nodded lightly and didn't take it seriously.

"Mother, within three years, no one will enter the harem."

The Empress Dowager made up her mind and agreed.

The Gongye royal family inherited the previous dynasty, and the filial piety period was only one year, but the emperor wanted to use this to resist the courtiers' talk of offering their daughters, and this happened to be an opportunity.Not to mention that Gong Yeqi's words are more or less sincere.

"Then, little prince..."

The queen mother said tentatively.

Gongye Qi casually tugged on the accessories around his waist, "Mother Empress Quan just raises her as a kitten or puppy. If she doesn't like it, she can throw it to Mrs. Jiao to raise it."

The queen mother twisted his ears and sighed, "Forget it, I will keep him with me, and the future has nothing to do with the Jiao family. The emperor will treat him as my grandson." She squinted at the prince. Ye Qi glanced at him, forcing him to respond.

Gongye Qi doesn't like heirs.

It's not such a strong disgust, nor is it hurting the fish in the pond, it's just a kind of pure indifference.After all, he didn't treat his bloodline as pampered and loved as his father, but was completely indifferent and cruel.

Even more like a ferocious beast, facing threats from its own race, it only has pure malice and killing intent.

Gong Yeqi did not sit on the imperial court, but walked slowly in the palace road.

Liu Hao and the others followed behind, all in silence.It seemed to others that the emperor was just as usual, but the recent Liu Hao felt that His Majesty might be upset.

It was a nameless vigilance.

Birds flew over the green palace walls, eagerly feeding the hungry young birds in the nest; water waves swayed, and fish swimming in the imperial garden pool dropped their eggs.

Midsummer is the most hot and dry, but it is also full of greenery and full of life.

cicadas sing.

Everything is full of vitality, there is no more solemn and cold blood, and Emperor Zhengshi walked in it, but he felt inexplicably noisy.

"Stick down all the remnant cicadas in the palace."

The emperor suddenly issued a strange order.

"Here."

Liu Hao paused, then said softly: "Your Majesty, the Taifu should still be waiting in the imperial study."

In the past half a month, Emperor Zhengshi often called Mo Jingchun into the imperial study, and Liu Hao remembered the time every so often.It was now a quarter of an hour later than usual.

The irritable Emperor Zhengshi raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Hao with his hands behind his back, "Slippery."

His voice was neither fast nor slow, but he couldn't hear his mood.

Liu Hao sneered, "The servant is not thinking that you and the master can talk, so I thought, maybe talking to the master will make you feel better." He has been with Gongyeqi for many years, so he doesn't even lose this bit of face.

"He's too formal." Emperor Zhengshi changed direction, but headed for the imperial study.

Thinking about it carefully, it still has something to do with him.

Liu Hao followed step by step, and said with a light smile, "Your Majesty used to dislike the character of Master the most." What he concealed from Mo Jingchun seemed to be right in front of his eyes, but in the blink of an eye, it was completely different, and no one could tell.

Emperor Zhengshi said lightly: "I told you to talk too much."

Don't be surprised.

Hearing this name for the first time, he would only think that he is a person who is like a spring breeze, but when meeting him, he is an extremely restrained and silent man, which naturally makes Gongye unhappy.

His nature is flamboyant and reckless, and he only sees majestic mountains in his eyes, and he can't tolerate boring and stubborn rocks.

Mo Jingchun was a surprise.

But if it hadn't been for this accident, in front of Changle Palace, he would have tortured and killed the eldest prince first, and then killed Concubine Li alive.Regardless of the reason, this would not be harsh enough for courtiers and scholar-bureaucrats.

When Gong Yeqi calms down, he will naturally think clearly, but what if he can't calm down?

Rubbing his thumbs against his fingertips, the emperor smiled faintly, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

In the imperial study room, Mo Jingchun shuddered silently.

He was sitting upright, not doing anything inappropriate just because he was alone, but drinking tea honestly, while thinking about what dirty news His Majesty would say today.

Mo Jingchun didn't realize that in getting along day and night, he was no longer as afraid of Gongyeqi as before.

Not long after, His Majesty strode in.

Mo Jingchun met Liu Hao unexpectedly, and when he heard him say a few words silently, he immediately came to his senses.Just about to salute, Gongye Qi interrupted with a wave of his big hand, and said with stern eyes: "There is no need to be too polite."

Mo Jingchun: "..." Who did His Majesty meet?

Liu Hao stood outside and licked his lips. There was too little time just now, otherwise he would have signaled to Mo Jingchun that His Majesty met some princes on the way here, there was some conflict, and the brothers broke up unhappy.

Several princes entered the palace to meet the queen mother, and they had something to ask for.

It was really unexpected that this happened.

In the imperial study room, Mo Jingchun thought about it and said: "Could it be that your majesty... met several princes?"

Gong Yeqi raised his eyebrows, "Master, can this be calculated?"

Mo Jingchun laughed, "I just met a few people when I came here."

Gong Yeqi's face gradually darkened, "They want to ask for a fief to release, and take away their mothers and concubines at the same time."

When the emperor succeeds to the throne, he usually entrusts his brothers and releases them outside. If they are filial and the emperor likes them, they can make an exception and take their mother and concubine out to support them.

Gongyeqi said coldly: "Which one of them can make an exception?"

On the contrary, the former eldest prince still had some possibilities, and the relationship between the prince and the eldest prince was actually not too bad.

"Your Majesty, the matter of releasing it to the public can only be decided after the courtiers have discussed it. As for the matter of support...of course it is entirely up to your idea."

Gong Yeqi: "The widow thought that the master would come to persuade me again."

Mo Jingchun's tone was calm: "After all, there is no law to follow, it's all up to His Majesty's idea. Even if I want to restrict His Majesty with rules, there is no way to follow."

Gong Yeqi swept away his gloomy thoughts, and said with a smile: "Master is very right. Speaking of which, did you just say that King Qinghe invited a clay sculpture of an evil Buddha into the palace in order to pray for gods and worship Buddha? I heard that since then After a while, he will be able to see the fox demon in the mansion every night."

Mo Jingchun's face froze.

Your Majesty's previous and subsequent topics can be described as one in the sky and the other in the ground, which made Mo Jingchun, who was fully prepared, feel as if he had punched cotton, and even drew his sword and looked around in a daze of astonishment.

His Majesty called him here frequently recently, more like a way of relief, occasionally talking about something novel, not sticking to what it is.

Mo Jingchun guessed that maybe it was the events in Quanxue Palace and Changle Palace that day, which made His Majesty trust him a little more.

But the topic of the past two days has become a bit magical.

Not an illusion.

Recently, His Majesty's gossip has changed from the gossip of various clans to gossip about ghosts and demons.If Mo Jingchun didn't have a rabbit tail, he wouldn't be as restless as he is now.

His tone was difficult, "Your Majesty, what are you implying?"

Gongyeqi's eyes lighted up slightly, staring at people like a vicious tiger pouncing on its prey, but he was about to show a gentle smile that made people creepy, "Master, have you ever smelled yourself?"

Mo Jingchun was at a loss, taste?

He's used to incense since he was out... that thing,
