Dai Yuxin says
Chapter 124
Xiugu raised her head, looked at the water mirror with bright eyes, and said with a sincere smile: "I am really grateful to the emperor for giving me the opportunity to follow the girl. The greatest wish of the servant in this life is to serve the girl with all my strength and live up to the emperor's expectations. "
"That's right." Shui Jing said softly, looking at Xiugu behind Daiyu, a trace of affection flashed in his heart.
After dinner, Daiyu and Shui Rong talked with Shui Jing to digest their food, while waiting for Aunt Xueyan to eat.
Shui Rong saw Bao Zhu sticking out her head outside the door, and waved: "Come in, how is the thing you want to do?"
With slow steps, Baozhu moved into the room, fixed her eyes on the water mirror, knelt on the ground, and timidly replied: "I have done it, but I dare not say it."
Shui Jing's eyes were like lightning, he shot at the orb, waved his hand and said: "You all go down."
The servants in the room retreated quietly and quickly like ghosts, and the last one to go out closed the door tightly.
Shui Jing said in a deep voice: "Say."
An extremely short word, revealing incomparable majesty and coldness.
At this moment, the air in the room seemed to be condensed into ice lumps, and Daiyu suddenly seemed to see the true face of the kind and amiable Shui Jing, and understood the cold and witty character of the emperor.
This kind of depression that was about to come and the wind filled the building made her heart tighten, and she had a premonition that the Queen Mother would reveal something.
Daiyu's premonition was very accurate.
After the death of the first emperor, Shui Jing kept his promise and kept his promise to his father.
Although I don't often meet the Queen Mother, I treat her life very favorably, and I don't lack the courtesy in the harem.
Shui Jing not only allows the Queen Mother to have all the privileges that the Queen Mother deserves in the harem, but also requires the women in the harem to respect the Queen Mother.
The ordinary life of being pampered and pampered all the year round has made the queen mother, who was once so famous, forget many unknown things she did in her early years.
It stands to reason that the queen mother should be satisfied to be able to have today.
However, for those with great ambitions, the heart is a bottomless pit, and the desire is hard to fill.
In fact, this queen mother was born very hard. When she was seven years old, her hometown suffered a severe drought, and the fields had no harvest.
The family was poor and had no food to eat, and the whole family was about to starve to death. At such a young age, she did something that ordinary children would never think of.
In order to have enough food for herself, beautiful clothes to wear, and more money for her parents, she came to the brothel by herself and asked the old bustard to buy her.
The old bustard was also a woman with a discerning eye, and when she carefully looked at her sallow, emaciated face that hadn't grown up yet, she knew she had found a treasure.
Without further ado, the old bustard took her to find her parents, bought her at a high price, and loved and raised her like a daughter.
At the age of 13, she met the father of Wang Ziteng, then General Weihu.
When the general saw her, he thought it was a rare commodity to live in, so he redeemed her from the brothel, and took her to his home to raise her as a baby.
At that time, she was still a filial girl who understood the value of beauty bestowed on her by God, and she and the general silently reached a consensus.
In the future, she will do her best to help the general rise to the top, and the general will have to give her brother a corresponding official position according to the value she paid for the general.
The general tried to get her to meet the late emperor, and the late emperor was really fascinated by her beauty and intelligence. She was brought into the palace by the late emperor. Prince Teng's father, General Weihu, deliberately arranged for her to become a noble concubine in a short while.
Her belly was very upbeat, and she had a happy relationship with the emperor, and she became pregnant with a dragon child.
After giving birth to a dragon son, her appearance was even more beautiful, and she fascinated the late emperor.
She, a lowly woman from a brothel, unexpectedly made the emperor, Shui Jing's father, dote on her three thousand times.
For her sake, the first emperor even gave up his wife, the empress, who had been married for many years, and only had her in his heart.
She made a lot of promises, and urged the emperor not only to reuse Prince Teng and his son, but also to give Prince Teng and his son the grace of being promoted to rank.
Of course, Wang Ziteng and his son also promoted her elder brother to be a general of hussars step by step.
As the emperor's favor deepened, her elder brother eventually surpassed the Wang family and became the most powerful Marquis in the dynasty.
The promotion of her status with her natal family did not affect her relationship with Wang Ziteng's family. The relationship between her and Wang Ziteng's family was still solid and unbreakable.
She and the Wang family and the Jia family in the future, facing inside and outside, are the horns of each other.
As her son grew up, her desire gradually expanded.
The title of imperial concubine can no longer satisfy her, she wants to be a queen day and night, and wants to change her son to be a prince.
She designed the relationship between Li Shuijing's father and son, and all the schemes were shattered by the queen one by one.
Because the gentle and virtuous queen came from a famous family, the court has extremely powerful forces supporting her.
The important ministers of the court may turn a blind eye to the battles in the imperial court, but the prince is the foundation of the country, and they will never tolerate the usurpation of the throne by a child of a lowly woman.
She, this young and beautiful woman is indeed extraordinary.
When there was an opportunity for war in the frontier, she persuaded the emperor to send Prince Shui Jing to supervise the war.
Just as the prince Shui Jing was away from the court, the queen died unexpectedly.
When Shui Jing returned to court in victory, the queen had passed away for more than two months.
This incident became Shui Jing's lifelong pain.
Destiny is really unpredictable and unpredictable!
Just as she was ambitiously fighting for the crown prince for her son, the old emperor fell ill and would die soon.
When the first emperor was dying, he held her hand with eyes filled with guilt, and told her sincerely: "I can make you a queen, but I cannot make your son a prince. This is to keep our son's life safe."
The old emperor died, and the new emperor came to the throne, and her good days were at an end.
The new emperor, Shui Jing, respected her as empress dowager according to the last emperor's edict, and treated her with courtesy, but transferred her son to a distant place, so that her mother and son could not see each other.
She hates, but is helpless.
After hibernating for so many years, it was not until Shui Rong came back that her heart became alive again.
She thought that to change the fate of herself, her son and the family, she pinned all her hopes on Shui Rong.
In order to realize her wish, she couldn't tolerate the helpless little Daiyu blocking her way.
So, she did not hesitate to stand up and take risks, hoping to realize her last dream.
She made two preparations, one is to let Shui Rong and his nephew and granddaughter fight firewood, it is best to cook raw rice, and force Shui Rong to marry back first.The second is to make Daiyu sterile for life, so as to avoid future troubles.
Unexpectedly, this Daiyu was smarter than the previous empress, she dropped the bowl of tea without even touching her lips.
This night, it's so dark!
The young queen mother was lying on the bed, thinking over and over again about everything that happened during the day. She couldn't believe that Daiyu dropped the teacup because she was really careless.
However, she couldn't figure out where there was a flaw, which made Daiyu aware of it and escaped the catastrophe.
Suddenly, she found a dark figure standing in front of the bed, and she was just about to open her mouth to ask, "Who!"
With a wave of that black shadow's hand, she didn't know anything.
The next day, the maids found that the Empress Dowager had a ferocious face, her eyes were wide open, and she died on the bed.
When Shui Jing heard the report, she felt relieved.
Over the years, he has never let go of the cause of his mother's death, nor has he let go of the spider trail left by Xiugu's disappearance.
It's just that the clues are often cut off when they are about to be revealed.
Despite this, he still found out the real cause of his mother's death, which was related to his father.
This troubled Shui Jing very much, he couldn't kill his own father just to avenge his mother.
There are many sad secrets about the royal family. It is better not to know.
For the sake of the throne and the stability of the country, Shui Jing had to bury the late emperor and his mother together.
In order to cover up the royal scandal, and more importantly, to be seen by others and win people's hearts, he has had to pretend to be a dutiful son all these years.
Respect this young and beautiful queen mother, and give preferential treatment to this young and beautiful queen mother.
Whenever he saw this young and beautiful queen mother, his heart seemed to be set on fire.
He had long known that the most direct cause of his mother's death was his father's desire to satisfy the Queen Mother's ambition.
The disappearance of Xiugu was completely caused by the Queen Mother.
The past is over, Shui Jing originally thought of her father, who was omnipotent in the world, and supported her in the spirit of filial piety and in accordance with the will.
Who knows that she still doesn't know how to repent, and even stretched out her poisonous hands to Daiyu, who she loves the most in her heart, what is tolerable and unbearable?
Shui Jing decided: this evil spirit should not be allowed to live any longer.
When Shui Jing learned that the queen mother was dead, she snorted and asked easily, "I was fine yesterday, why did I die at night?"
The imperial doctor who was in charge of the examination replied with cold sweat all over his face: "The servant checked it out, and the queen mother suffered from violent illness, so she just died."
Shui Jing nodded and said: "So that's the case. Since she was suffering from violent illness and died well, it's not a good thing. Could it be God's punishment for her? Alas! When a person dies, one death will kill a hundred. Pass the decree and don't let it go." Discussing the Empress Dowager's character for no reason. The weather is so hot, and it is not suitable to keep it for a long time, and notify the Ministry of Internal Affairs to find a place for a quick burial in the imperial mausoleum according to the Empress Dowager's etiquette."
In this era, people generally have a bad opinion of a person who died violently, thinking that this person may have done something bad that ghosts and gods would not tolerate, and was killed by a ghost.
When Shui Jing said this, it seemed that he was protecting the Empress Dowager, but in reality it was not.
When Daiyu heard the news that the Empress Dowager died of violent illness at night, she couldn't help but think of Shui Jing listening to Baozhu's report to inspect Xiugu's veil for wiping tea, and the test results of the broken tea bowl that Xiugu stole back. The tea contained sterilization powder.
If a woman drinks this medicine, she will be barren for life.
I remember that Shui Jing's face turned black at that time, his face was cloudy and uncertain, his eyes were wide open, and he looked at Daiyu silently.
Shui Rong was so angry that he jumped up, and was about to rush out to find the Queen Mother to settle the score.
Shui Jing grabbed Shui Rong and persuaded: "Rong'er, you should think twice before doing anything. If you go to the Queen Mother now, she will not only refuse to admit it, but will even cry with you endlessly. Just pretend you don't know, Father will give you and Yu'er justice."
As Shui Jing said, with a smile in his eyes, he comforted Daiyu softly: "Yu'er is blessed by the God of Daluo, and she is a noble person with great fate and fortune. How can a small person be able to calculate?"
Daiyu was very angry at the time, feeling that the Queen Mother's plot had failed anyway, so she didn't say anything more after hearing what Shui Jing said.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night that day, the Empress Dowager disappeared, and her soul returned to the west.
Daiyu knew that this must be the justice given to her and Shui Rong by Shui Jing.
In the palace struggle, you can't see the live ammunition, and you can't smell the slightest gunpowder smoke, just in a group of friendly words and laughter, poison you, and kill you in a gentle and beautiful smile.Palace life is really cruel and terrifying, and it is hard to guard against.
If I hadn't had the special ring given by Ah Shan to call the police, I would have been tricked by the Queen Mother yesterday without knowing it, and I would be barren for the rest of my life.
The queen mother's conspiracy was exposed, and life disappeared so silently.
Now that she has a close relationship with the court, Daiyu dare not think about her future life.
"Yu'er, what are you thinking about? So preoccupied?" Shui Rong walked over and asked her with a smile and tenderness.
Now, the water-soluble mansion, the assistant prince's mansion, is being built day and night.
The West Garden of the Wangfu is connected to Daiyu's Jade Garden. Shui Rong asked the craftsman to open a door with hanging flowers. He holds the key by himself, and he can enter and exit the Jade Garden freely.
He walked into Yuyuan through the Chuihua Gate and came to Daiyu's place, just like walking into the back hall of his own house.Yuyuan's servants saw him as family, and they were used to it.
At the beginning, Daiyu lost her temper a few times when she saw him coming casually.
Shui Rong is always smiling, and he obeys Daiyu in everything, except for not letting him see Daiyu, he really can't do it.
Afraid that Daiyu would find out that he was going to be angry, he was like a thief, sneaking in every day to visit Daiyu, and even Ah Shan felt sympathy for him when he saw it.
After a long time, under the persuasion of Zijuan Xueyan Ashan Xiugu, Daiyu let Shui Rong go.
Shui Rong saw that Daiyu didn't make a sound, still sitting on the stone pier of the gazebo, staring at the duckweed on the water surface, silent, like an old monk in meditation.
He quietly sat next to Daiyu and reported in a low voice: "Yu'er, when the emperor announced the death of the queen mother to the courtiers this morning, he seemed very sad. He only said a few words, but he was too sad to continue. I went back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to rest. My father said that because of his sadness and feeling unwell, he would not preside over the funeral of the Empress Dowager. My father had already decreed that the Queen Mother’s own son, King Xin, should come back quickly and let King Xin preside over the funeral. The crown prince assisted King Xin. Now that she is dead, I don't care about her anymore. But, I don't want to worry about her at all."
Daiyu raised her head, looked at Shui Rong with eyes as clear as water, saw his sharp-edged face with an upright demeanor, looked at his black and white eyes, very pure, knew that he was a straight-hearted man, didn't understand Machiavellian, even more disdain to play tricks and tricks.
"Her identity is the Empress Dowager. It is reasonable to say that her funeral should be a national funeral. The emperor is not feeling well. It is only natural to entrust you and the crown prince to assist King Xin. I'm afraid it would be bad if you don't go." Daiyu analyzed for him in a soft voice. with.
"To be honest, through this incident, I feel that power is really not a good thing. If I am not a big prince, nor a co-prince, and you and I are just ordinary people, the Queen Mother may not kill you. You and She has never known each other before, she has no grievances or enmities, and it's too scary to do such a murderous thing when they meet for the first time." When Shui Rong said this, he clasped his hands together and looked at Daiyu quietly.
He seemed to be troubled, and continued slowly: "Yu'er, God wants me to be born in the emperor's family. I have no choice but to choose my birth. Wealth and wealth are inherent in birth. This is destined, and I have no way to choose. But , I don't want to be powerful, I'm not interested in this co-prince, I just want to live a peaceful life with you, grow old hand in hand with you, stay with you for a lifetime, grow old slowly, and I'm satisfied."
"Hey! It's not easy to say." Daiyu sighed lightly, and persuaded in a soft voice: "I think you should obey your father's words."
"Yu'er, why are you persuading me to go? The Queen Mother has done something bad to you!" Shui Rong opened his eyes wide and sighed, "Yu'er, you are too kind."
Kindness is in Daiyu's nature, but she persuaded Shui Rong not only out of kindness.
It's because yesterday, although the queen mother poisoned her secretly and was unknown, but the queen mother matched her nephew and granddaughter Tian Xin and Shui Rong, it was very obvious and obvious.
Now that the queen mother died suddenly, Daiyu was worried that if Shui Rong didn't show up at the funeral, she was worried that it would arouse suspicion.
Having lived in the Jia Mansion for many years, she is used to the intrigues of the big family. Now that Daiyu has survived the catastrophe, her fate has pushed her into the royal family, where there are the most conspiracies and tricks, so she can't help but pay attention to everything.
"Yu'er, I listen to you, if you want me to go, I'll go. Don't be afraid, even if the Queen Mother dies, we will rarely enter the palace in the future." Seeing Daiyu's frowning, Shui Rong said nothing. Comforting and persuading.
Daiyu sees that although Shui Rong is clumsy and not good at expressing his words, his true feelings are undoubtedly revealed from the corners of his eyes and brows.
Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?
Daiyu's heart was warm, she lowered her head slightly, and said coquettishly: "I want you to listen to that, I just said so."
People in Jia's mansion were more sad than ordinary people when they knew that the queen mother in the palace had died.
Because Yuan Chun is gone, the Queen Mother is their only backer in the palace.
Now, like an iceberg, this backing has melted to nothing.
Jia Amnesty is a hereditary official with positions but no powers.
Jia Zheng was just a fifth-rank official, a foreigner, an idler in the imperial court.
The only useful thing is that Wang Ziteng, he is now in the south, and he doesn't know when he will be transferred back to the capital. It will be difficult for the Jia family to do things in the future.
Just when the people of Jia's mansion were sad, the emperor ordered that the people of Jia's rank should go to guard the queen mother's spirit for seven days.
Jia's mother took Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Youshi, Wang Xifeng and other high-ranking female relatives to guard the queen mother's spirit, and Baochai took care of the family.
Before leaving, Jia's mother was not at ease, and specifically told Baochai to be more careful, so that no accidents should happen.
Baochai responded one by one, saying that the old ancestors should rest assured.
There are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkeys are kings.
Baochai is now the main head of the Jia family.
These days, Baochai has suffered so much in her heart!
My brother is in prison, and he hasn't gotten it out yet. Prince Zhongshun asks his servant to send letters to Lixiangyuan from time to time, and finds himself through Aunt Xue to discuss his brother's affairs. Every time he goes to discuss, he always plays with himself in various ways. I am too lazy to mention Xue Pan.
Every time he had had enough fun with him and was exhausted, Baochai would have the opportunity to ask about his brother, and if there was any good way to settle the case, so that his brother could get out of prison as soon as possible.
Prince Zhongshun always frowned impatiently and said: "Your brother's case was brought to the emperor, if I hadn't cleared it inside, your brother would have moved his head long ago, how could he live comfortably in prison. "
In fact, Xue Pan lived in prison with impunity. There was a cell for each person, the house was bright and airy, and there were all tables, chairs, benches, bed cabinets.
Xue Pan drank and ate meat in it every day, and the jailers talked and joked with him.
Occasionally, the jailer would find him a prostitute to sing and sing for him.
But I don't know how much money Xue's family was extorted!
Baochai was angry in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it, and she had to accept the loyalty of the prince in face.
On this day, having had enough fun, Baochai flattered him and flattered him: "Yes, thank you for your trouble. It's just that I'm the only brother, and my mother is crying all day long, and her health is getting worse and worse. It's quite uncomfortable. I beg your lord to take good care of this concubine, and no matter how much trouble you have to let my brother come out as soon as possible, I will be forever grateful."
After hearing this, Prince Zhongshun thought for a while, got up and put on his clothes, turned his head and said to Baochai, "Just wait."
A few days later, Prince Zhongshun sent someone to deliver a letter. This time, he didn't ask Baochai to send it for him to play with. He just asked the young man to tell her that he had opened up the Ministry of Punishment and asked Baochai to go directly to Dali Siqing to talk.
Baochai heard the words, prepared enough gifts, and took his family to meet the minister of Dali Temple.
This Dali Siqing is an old man who is nearly sixty years old. As soon as he saw Baochai, he happily let her into the room without any process. , but at the risk of beheading."
With tears streaming down her face, Baochai knelt down and begged, "I'm the only brother. If he's gone, my mother won't be able to survive. I beg your lord to be merciful and save my brother's life."
The minister of Dali Temple saw Baochai crying so much that the pear blossoms were raining, which was very touching.
I couldn't help stretching out my fat hand like a pig's claw, helped Baochai, wiped her tears with my sleeve, and said, "Don't cry, if you cry any more, it will break my heart. Your mood makes me cry." I can understand, but it has too much to do with it. If you want to save your brother's life, you can't do it without paying something."
When Baochai heard that there was a door, with tears in his eyes, he said softly, "Please tell me, my lord, as long as my brother can be rescued, Baochai is willing to do anything."
The Minister of Dali Temple smiled and said: "Killing pays for life. Your brother is a murder case and he must pay for his life. It has been approved by the higher authorities, and he will be executed in July and a half."
When Baochai heard this, her eyes turned black, and when she swayed, she was about to fall down.
Dali Siqing hugged her soft waist and said with a smile: "Beauty, don't worry, I haven't finished my words yet."
Baochai's face was pale, and she was too anxious to speak, but shed tears.
Dali Siqing hugged her into his arms, put his mouth close to her ear, and said quietly: "I can replace your brother's life with someone else's life, but your brother will keep his name anonymous in the future, and no one will know about this matter." What do you think?"
"That's right." Shui Jing said softly, looking at Xiugu behind Daiyu, a trace of affection flashed in his heart.
After dinner, Daiyu and Shui Rong talked with Shui Jing to digest their food, while waiting for Aunt Xueyan to eat.
Shui Rong saw Bao Zhu sticking out her head outside the door, and waved: "Come in, how is the thing you want to do?"
With slow steps, Baozhu moved into the room, fixed her eyes on the water mirror, knelt on the ground, and timidly replied: "I have done it, but I dare not say it."
Shui Jing's eyes were like lightning, he shot at the orb, waved his hand and said: "You all go down."
The servants in the room retreated quietly and quickly like ghosts, and the last one to go out closed the door tightly.
Shui Jing said in a deep voice: "Say."
An extremely short word, revealing incomparable majesty and coldness.
At this moment, the air in the room seemed to be condensed into ice lumps, and Daiyu suddenly seemed to see the true face of the kind and amiable Shui Jing, and understood the cold and witty character of the emperor.

When Shui Jing learned that the queen mother was dead, she snorted and asked easily, "I was fine yesterday, why did I die at night?"
The imperial doctor who was in charge of the examination replied with cold sweat all over his face: "The servant checked it out, and the queen mother suffered from violent illness, so she just died."
Shui Jing nodded and said: "So that's the case. Since she was suffering from violent illness and died well, it's not a good thing. Could it be God's punishment for her? Alas! When a person dies, one death will kill a hundred. Pass the decree and don't let it go." Discussing the Empress Dowager's character for no reason. The weather is so hot, and it is not suitable to keep it for a long time, and notify the Ministry of Internal Affairs to find a place for a quick burial in the imperial mausoleum according to the Empress Dowager's etiquette."
In this era, people generally have a bad opinion of a person who died violently, thinking that this person may have done something bad that ghosts and gods would not tolerate, and was killed by a ghost.
When Shui Jing said this, it seemed that he was protecting the Empress Dowager, but in reality it was not.
When Daiyu heard the news that the Empress Dowager died of violent illness at night, she couldn't help but think of Shui Jing listening to Baozhu's report to inspect Xiugu's veil for wiping tea, and the test results of the broken tea bowl that Xiugu stole back. The tea contained sterilization powder.
If a woman drinks this medicine, she will be barren for life.
I remember that Shui Jing's face turned black at that time, his face was cloudy and uncertain, his eyes were wide open, and he looked at Daiyu silently.
Shui Rong was so angry that he jumped up, and was about to rush out to find the Queen Mother to settle the score.
Shui Jing grabbed Shui Rong and persuaded: "Rong'er, you should think twice before doing anything. If you go to the Queen Mother now, she will not only refuse to admit it, but will even cry with you endlessly. Just pretend you don't know, Father will give you and Yu'er justice."
As Shui Jing said, with a smile in his eyes, he comforted Daiyu softly: "Yu'er is blessed by the God of Daluo, and she is a noble person with great fate and fortune. How can a small person be able to calculate?"
Daiyu was very angry at the time, feeling that the Queen Mother's plot had failed anyway, so she didn't say anything more after hearing what Shui Jing said.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night that day, the Empress Dowager disappeared, and her soul returned to the west.
Daiyu knew that this must be the justice given to her and Shui Rong by Shui Jing.
In the palace struggle, you can't see the live ammunition, and you can't smell the slightest gunpowder smoke, just in a group of friendly words and laughter, poison you, and kill you in a gentle and beautiful smile.Palace life is really cruel and terrifying, and it is hard to guard against.
If I hadn't had the special ring given by Ah Shan to call the police, I would have been tricked by the Queen Mother yesterday without knowing it, and I would be barren for the rest of my life.
The queen mother's conspiracy was exposed, and life disappeared so silently.
Now that she has a close relationship with the court, Daiyu dare not think about her future life.
"Yu'er, what are you thinking about? So preoccupied?" Shui Rong walked over and asked her with a smile and tenderness.
Now, the water-soluble mansion, the assistant prince's mansion, is being built day and night.
The West Garden of the Wangfu is connected to Daiyu's Jade Garden. Shui Rong asked the craftsman to open a door with hanging flowers. He holds the key by himself, and he can enter and exit the Jade Garden freely.
He walked into Yuyuan through the Chuihua Gate and came to Daiyu's place, just like walking into the back hall of his own house.Yuyuan's servants saw him as family, and they were used to it.
At the beginning, Daiyu lost her temper a few times when she saw him coming casually.
Shui Rong is always smiling, and he obeys Daiyu in everything, except for not letting him see Daiyu, he really can't do it.
Afraid that Daiyu would find out that he was going to be angry, he was like a thief, sneaking in every day to visit Daiyu, and even Ah Shan felt sympathy for him when he saw it.
After a long time, under the persuasion of Zijuan Xueyan Ashan Xiugu, Daiyu let Shui Rong go.
Shui Rong saw that Daiyu didn't make a sound, still sitting on the stone pier of the gazebo, staring at the duckweed on the water surface, silent, like an old monk in meditation.
He quietly sat next to Daiyu and reported in a low voice: "Yu'er, when the emperor announced the death of the queen mother to the courtiers this morning, he seemed very sad. He only said a few words, but he was too sad to continue. I went back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to rest. My father said that because of his sadness and feeling unwell, he would not preside over the funeral of the Empress Dowager. My father had already decreed that the Queen Mother’s own son, King Xin, should come back quickly and let King Xin preside over the funeral. The crown prince assisted King Xin. Now that she is dead, I don't care about her anymore. But, I don't want to worry about her at all."
Daiyu raised her head, looked at Shui Rong with eyes as clear as water, saw his sharp-edged face with an upright demeanor, looked at his black and white eyes, very pure, knew that he was a straight-hearted man, didn't understand Machiavellian, even more disdain to play tricks and tricks.
"Her identity is the Empress Dowager. It is reasonable to say that her funeral should be a national funeral. The emperor is not feeling well. It is only natural to entrust you and the crown prince to assist King Xin. I'm afraid it would be bad if you don't go." Daiyu analyzed for him in a soft voice. with.
"To be honest, through this incident, I feel that power is really not a good thing. If I am not a big prince, nor a co-prince, and you and I are just ordinary people, the Queen Mother may not kill you. You and She has never known each other before, she has no grievances or enmities, and it's too scary to do such a murderous thing when they meet for the first time." When Shui Rong said this, he clasped his hands together and looked at Daiyu quietly.
He seemed to be troubled, and continued slowly: "Yu'er, God wants me to be born in the emperor's family. I have no choice but to choose my birth. Wealth and wealth are inherent in birth. This is destined, and I have no way to choose. But , I don't want to be powerful, I'm not interested in this co-prince, I just want to live a peaceful life with you, grow old hand in hand with you, stay with you for a lifetime, grow old slowly, and I'm satisfied."
"Hey! It's not easy to say." Daiyu sighed lightly, and persuaded in a soft voice: "I think you should obey your father's words."
"Yu'er, why are you persuading me to go? The Queen Mother has done something bad to you!" Shui Rong opened his eyes wide and sighed, "Yu'er, you are too kind."
Kindness is in Daiyu's nature, but she persuaded Shui Rong not only out of kindness.
It's because yesterday, although the queen mother poisoned her secretly and was unknown, but the queen mother matched her nephew and granddaughter Tian Xin and Shui Rong, it was very obvious and obvious.
Now that the queen mother died suddenly, Daiyu was worried that if Shui Rong didn't show up at the funeral, she was worried that it would arouse suspicion.
Having lived in the Jia Mansion for many years, she is used to the intrigues of the big family. Now that Daiyu has survived the catastrophe, her fate has pushed her into the royal family, where there are the most conspiracies and tricks, so she can't help but pay attention to everything.
"Yu'er, I listen to you, if you want me to go, I'll go. Don't be afraid, even if the Queen Mother dies, we will rarely enter the palace in the future." Seeing Daiyu's frowning, Shui Rong said nothing. Comforting and persuading.
Daiyu sees that although Shui Rong is clumsy and not good at expressing his words, his true feelings are undoubtedly revealed from the corners of his eyes and brows.
Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?
Daiyu's heart was warm, she lowered her head slightly, and said coquettishly: "I want you to listen to that, I just said so."
People in Jia's mansion were more sad than ordinary people when they knew that the queen mother in the palace had died.
Because Yuan Chun is gone, the Queen Mother is their only backer in the palace.
Now, like an iceberg, this backing has melted to nothing.
Jia Amnesty is a hereditary official with positions but no powers.
Jia Zheng was just a fifth-rank official, a foreigner, an idler in the imperial court.
The only useful thing is that Wang Ziteng, he is now in the south, and he doesn't know when he will be transferred back to the capital. It will be difficult for the Jia family to do things in the future.
Just when the people of Jia's mansion were sad, the emperor ordered that the people of Jia's rank should go to guard the queen mother's spirit for seven days.
Jia's mother took Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Youshi, Wang Xifeng and other high-ranking female relatives to guard the queen mother's spirit, and Baochai took care of the family.
Before leaving, Jia's mother was not at ease, and specifically told Baochai to be more careful, so that no accidents should happen.
Baochai responded one by one, saying that the old ancestors should rest assured.
There are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkeys are kings.
Baochai is now the main head of the Jia family.
These days, Baochai has suffered so much in her heart!
My brother is in prison, and he hasn't gotten it out yet. Prince Zhongshun asks his servant to send letters to Lixiangyuan from time to time, and finds himself through Aunt Xue to discuss his brother's affairs. Every time he goes to discuss, he always plays with himself in various ways. I am too lazy to mention Xue Pan.
Every time he had had enough fun with him and was exhausted, Baochai would have the opportunity to ask about his brother, and if there was any good way to settle the case, so that his brother could get out of prison as soon as possible.
Prince Zhongshun always frowned impatiently and said: "Your brother's case was brought to the emperor, if I hadn't cleared it inside, your brother would have moved his head long ago, how could he live comfortably in prison. "
In fact, Xue Pan lived in prison with impunity. There was a cell for each person, the house was bright and airy, and there were all tables, chairs, benches, bed cabinets.
Xue Pan drank and ate meat in it every day, and the jailers talked and joked with him.
Occasionally, the jailer would find him a prostitute to sing and sing for him.
But I don't know how much money Xue's family was extorted!
Baochai was angry in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it, and she had to accept the loyalty of the prince in face.
On this day, having had enough fun, Baochai flattered him and flattered him: "Yes, thank you for your trouble. It's just that I'm the only brother, and my mother is crying all day long, and her health is getting worse and worse. It's quite uncomfortable. I beg your lord to take good care of this concubine, and no matter how much trouble you have to let my brother come out as soon as possible, I will be forever grateful."
After hearing this, Prince Zhongshun thought for a while, got up and put on his clothes, turned his head and said to Baochai, "Just wait."
A few days later, Prince Zhongshun sent someone to deliver a letter. This time, he didn't ask Baochai to send it for him to play with. He just asked the young man to tell her that he had opened up the Ministry of Punishment and asked Baochai to go directly to Dali Siqing to talk.
Baochai heard the words, prepared enough gifts, and took his family to meet the minister of Dali Temple.
This Dali Siqing is an old man who is nearly sixty years old. As soon as he saw Baochai, he happily let her into the room without any process. , but at the risk of beheading."
With tears streaming down her face, Baochai knelt down and begged, "I'm the only brother. If he's gone, my mother won't be able to survive. I beg your lord to be merciful and save my brother's life."
The minister of Dali Temple saw Baochai crying so much that the pear blossoms were raining, which was very touching.
I couldn't help stretching out my fat hand like a pig's claw, helped Baochai, wiped her tears with my sleeve, and said, "Don't cry, if you cry any more, it will break my heart. Your mood makes me cry." I can understand, but it has too much to do with it. If you want to save your brother's life, you can't do it without paying something."
When Baochai heard that there was a door, with tears in his eyes, he said softly, "Please tell me, my lord, as long as my brother can be rescued, Baochai is willing to do anything."
The Minister of Dali Temple smiled and said: "Killing pays for life. Your brother is a murder case and he must pay for his life. It has been approved by the higher authorities, and he will be executed in July and a half."
When Baochai heard this, her eyes turned black, and when she swayed, she was about to fall down.
Dali Siqing hugged her soft waist and said with a smile: "Beauty, don't worry, I haven't finished my words yet."
Baochai's face was pale, and she was too anxious to speak, but shed tears.
Dali Siqing hugged her into his arms, put his mouth close to her ear, and said quietly: "I can replace your brother's life with someone else's life, but your brother will keep his name anonymous in the future, and no one will know about this matter." What do you think?"
