[Red House] Lixian

"The concubines in the harem dare to talk about government affairs?" The Supreme Emperor raised his sword across Wei Qian's neck. Wei Qian didn't even blink, with tears in his eyes: "Although it is a state matter, it is also a family matter. What happened to the empress is a lesson for us and other concubines. "

"Imagine that the mother of a country can't protect herself in her own palace, let alone us? It's not as good as giving birth to two lives in other days. It's better to die directly by the emperor, and save future suffering!"

A golden chain flashed across Wei Qian's neck, and after she and Situ Yun made up their minds, they deliberately put the golden chain on their necks.

Seeing the chain and hearing Wei Qian's mournful words, the Supreme Emperor was furious and shook it twice.

Situ Yun next to him was stunned when the Supreme Emperor held the sword.Then he came to his senses and took the opportunity to cry loudly: "Today the father and the concubine attacked the baby, so why not kill the baby himself in the future to make way for the fifth brother?"

when--

The sword fell to the ground, the Supreme Emperor couldn't hold it back, and spat out blood: "Pfft——"

Wei Qian hurriedly got up to support him, and Situ Yun summoned the imperial physician.The pair of emperors and concubines accepted as soon as they saw a good relationship, and after expressing their attitude, they ordered someone to take care of the Supreme Emperor, and the two of them returned to Yongfu Palace.

"It's hard for you this time." Back at Yongfu Palace, Situ Yun heaved a sigh of relief.Although it was acting just now, I also vented my dissatisfaction.

Situ Yun was in an awkward position in front of a real powerful emperor.Doing is neither, nor is not doing.

There is also a saying that "the successor will not change the patriarchy for three years" after the emperor's death.Not to mention that the Supreme Emperor is still there, and he is not under house arrest. Situ Yun needs to hold this emperor carefully every day.

"There's nothing wrong with my concubine. It's just that I broke the precept this time and talked about state affairs indiscriminately..." Wei Qian gritted her teeth, with a pitiful look: "According to the rules, please ask your majesty to cut off the concubine's position as a warning to others."

"No. What you are doing is only for our family." Situ Yun said: "The empress admires the Supreme Emperor all day long, and Concubine Wu relies on her mother, the old Xiangguo, and is the representative of the powerful. Two days ago, the old Xiangguo also refuted my will. Yes. Hmph..." Situ Yun's face was not good-looking, and because of this, Concubine Wu Gui has been left out in the cold recently.

Wei Qian lowered her head, pretending not to hear Situ Yun's words.

When Situ Yun thought about it, he was unwilling to continue to mention the matter of the previous dynasty in front of Wei Qian.

Comforting Wei Qian, he said, "Only you two are on my side, and the Jia family has also contributed a lot."

Two days ago, when Wu Guolao showed his face, Jia Lian came out to speak for him, reprimanding Wu Guolao for being lawless. Although he was imprisoned by Situ Yun later, he admired Jia Lian, a young man who dared to face the powerful.

Those old stubborn people who want to move inside need the strength of these young people.

Only these people will stand with him. Situ Yun wants to monopolize the power, and these people also need a higher official position.

"The virtuous concubine gave birth to children for me. I understand in your heart that you serve your mother with all your heart." Situ Yun's eyes flashed coldly, and then he changed into a smiling face: "It's late at night, go to bed early, and tomorrow I have to take care of the reserve. things."

Wei Qian nodded, ordered someone to fetch water to freshen up, and the two of them prepared to rest.

Because Wei Qian had soothing spices here, Situ Yun had no dreams all night and had a good sleep.

But the Taishanghuang stayed up all night, tossing and turning thinking about his position.

After abdicating, the Supreme Emperor obviously didn't worry much anymore.Except for the refusal to give up military power and some important official positions, Situ Yun was allowed to toss around at will.Of course, the habits of decades can't be changed, and people are still ordered to report the situation in the court from time to time, and point fingers from time to time to show their sense of presence.

Moreover, after the abdication, the Taishanghuang put on a loving father's face, and after the death of the deposed prince, the Taishanghuang reflected on his father's love surging in his heart, and rewarded the other sons all day long, so that the chaos in the palace was over.

In the eyes of outsiders, it is undoubtedly a signal of his release.Not to mention Situ Yun, the pressure in his heart was even greater, and he was afraid that he would be deposed one day.

Of course, having a son is different now.As long as the son is here, as long as the reserve is established, even if he is deposed, it will not be the turn of these brothers.

"These boys are not the ones to worry about, after all, the Tian family has no family!" Reflecting on his recent actions, the Supreme Emperor said to himself: "It is true that these boys are too indulgent. I thought they would just stop me, but I didn't expect How dare you attack Long Si."

The Supreme Emperor was also surprised by what happened today.He also became completely vigilant, what Wei Qian said was right.If he can attack the prince today, but if he is ruthless tomorrow, he may die of illness for no reason. ?

"Kill me with poison, and then give Yun'er a fight to set things right..." The Supreme Emperor has no idea of ​​changing the emperor's family at present, and his heart is hardened, and the habit of being an emperor in the past reappears.

"It seems that we can only suppress and balance again."

Get up straight, write straight, and prepare everything for tomorrow...

The next day, Situ Yun woke up and saw that Wei Qian was tidying up the house and ordered someone to prepare soup, medicine and supplements: "What, did you disturb Your Majesty?"

"It's okay." Situ Yun sat by the bed and asked after smelling the medicine, "What is this medicine?"

"A tonic made for the Supreme Emperor, and by the way, some medicine for the sisters to nourish their health." Wei Qian suddenly thought of something, and said apologetically, "Your Majesty won't blame this concubine for being troubled, right? These soups and medicines can be treated by the imperial physician first." Check." After a pause, he said worriedly: "I am really worried about those people in the palace. Especially the princes and princesses, you must be careful during this time."

Situ Yun was startled, stood up and muttered: "That's right, the crown prince must be preserved, this is the bargaining chip for future negotiations with the Supreme Emperor." Fu then said to Wei Qian: "There is nothing to worry about, but I have to trouble you, a concubine, to make the medicine herself... "Situ Yun was so moved that he stepped forward to grab Wei Qian's hand.

Wei Qian quickly dodged it, and said respectfully: "The smell of medicine on my body is too strong, so I can't get close. After changing clothes, I will go to the palaces to deliver the medicine. If your majesty wakes up, he will get up earlier and prepare to go to court. Breakfast is ready. It's all His Majesty likes."

After finishing speaking, Wei Qian went to change clothes and left, leaving Situ Yun alone by the bed in a daze.

"There is a degree of relaxation in her actions, no wonder the father values ​​her." Looking at Wei Qian's back, Situ Yun had complicated emotions.Among the concubines, only Wei Qian did what he wanted the most.This kind of majestic style cannot be learned by the queen.So far, fighting with a group of concubines, how can there be any perspective on the big picture?He can't even see who is his own, and he doesn't even understand what Situ Yun needs most now.

a son!Even if it wasn't from the empress, it could alleviate Situ Yun's embarrassing position and allow Situ Yun to have successors.But those concubines fought among themselves all day long, and no one was pregnant when Wei Qian was not in the palace.If it is said that the queen has no hands and feet, no one will believe it.It's just that Situ Yun doesn't want to make a fuss.

On the other hand, Wei Qian acted in a completely different way. Like Situ Yun, she hoped that the imperial line would be stable.Otherwise, how much the Wei Mansion helped Situ Yun back then would be liquidated when the new emperor came to power.

"Even if she entered the palace, her temperament from back then has not changed!" The girl's sassy attitude towards Bo Gongtang back then is still unforgettable to this day.Since he entered the palace, he couldn't change his temper, and he still lived so freely.

"It's a pity that she can't bear children." If Wei Qian could "have children", she might not only be in her current position.

"But fortunately, I can't have children." Situ Yun changed his mind and acted according to Wei Qian's actions. If he really had a son, Situ Yun didn't know if he could accommodate her.

What he did yesterday has already touched the line between the former court and the harem.If it wasn't for Wei Qian's infertility and special position, what she said yesterday would be enough to kill her.

"Even the empress would not dare to act like this, and join me in fighting against the royal father."

If a shrewd concubine had another son, the emperor would have to consider those famous lessons learned from the past.

It was because Wei Qian was barren, that she remained aloof in front of Situ Yun.

Moreover, Wei Qian's self-esteem does not allow her to pretend to be flattering and gentle like those concubines.She would rather be neglected and out of favor like Wen Xiuyi than lose her own glory.

After all, the focus of cultivation is to lose one's heart for the sake of holy grace, and that is not worth the loss.

On the way, Hongchun asked about this matter: "The empress wants to show her strength so that the imperial concubine can be promoted?"

"That's right. After all, you can't have children if you maintain a Yunying body. If you want to advance, you can only do meritorious service. I can't do the flattering things like other concubines, and I don't want to be ignorant of my heart, so I use this to show my skills." At that time, helping Situ Yun obtain the real imperial power was the real merit.

Arriving at the Taiji Pavilion, Wei Qian ordered the palace servants to go in and communicate.

"Tell Your Majesty, this concubine is here to plead guilty." Saying this, he asked the eunuch to bring in the soup.

The Supreme Emperor was flipping through the books at this time. The eunuch brought the soup and medicine, and said that Wei Qian at the door pleaded guilty. The Supreme Emperor snorted coldly: "What is she doing here? I won't hold her accountable for her misconduct in front of the imperial court yesterday. It's already giving her face. Drive her out !"

The eunuch hesitated. This eunuch happened to be the eunuch who went to Qingning Palace yesterday. Thinking of Wei Qian's care, he said in a low voice: "Then this soup..."

"Forget it, keep it, forgive her for not daring to poison."

The eunuch was about to go out to ask Wei Qian to leave, when suddenly the Supreme Emperor called him back: "Wait..." After thinking about it, Fang said: "Go and call her in."

"Observe the order." The eunuch went out and invited Wei Qian in. The Supreme Emperor pointed to the words written on the table: "Look at these words, which one is more suitable?"

"Jie", "Xi", "Tao", "Zhao" and "Xi"

These five big characters were written on the rice paper in a standardized manner. Wei Qian glanced at it, her face was overjoyed, and she knelt down and said, "On behalf of His Majesty and the Crown Prince, I thank the Empress Dowager for your kindness."

"You are a smart person." Seeing that Wei Qian understood what he meant with just one glance, the Supreme Emperor was a little awkward, and said, "How did you name it? You turn around and call Yun'er over."

Situ Yun's generation follows the sun, while the next generation follows the fire, with "灬" as the side.The Taishanghuang's help in naming is undoubtedly an expression of his attitude and recognition of the prince's status.

"The name should naturally come from my grandfather. Children are prone to illnesses and die young, and only with the shade of my grandfather can I live a long life."

There was something in Wei Qian's words, and the Supreme Emperor was silent for a while: "Don't worry, after all, he is my grandson, and I will keep him safe in the future." This is about those uncles and uncles, only the Supreme Emperor himself Only by expressing their attitude can Situ Yun and Wei Qian feel at ease.

"Forget it, I'm tired, you kneel down!"

The Supreme Emperor drove Wei Qian away, and when he turned around, he decreed to cut off the management power of Concubine Zhen Gui, and handed over all affairs of the harem to Empress Dowager Chen.By the way, he personally ordered people to clean up a large number of people in the palace, and removed the eyeliner of several princes in the harem one by one.

Situ Yun's foundation is superficial and can't be found out, but the Supreme Emperor has been in business for decades, so don't you know who belongs to whom?

In order to give the prince a good environment, the Supreme Emperor was completely ruthless.At the same time, he announced to outsiders that he never had the intention of abolishing Situ Yun's line.

Wei Qian went to the various palaces to deliver medicines, Wen Xiuyi and Concubine Xiande gratefully accepted, but the Empress frowned: "Use her to pretend to be kind? I heard that His Majesty is also resting in Yongfu Palace last night?"

The queen was dissatisfied, she had just given birth to a dragon son, which was a great achievement.In the end, the emperor was not in Qingning Palace at night, but actually ran to Yongfu Palace?And the next day Wei Qian delivered the medicine, is this a slap in the face?Or slap in the face?

He ordered someone to pour the medicine down, and used the excuse of self-cultivation, even Wei Qian's face was not seen.

Wei Qian was rejected, bowed her body and took Hong Chun to Ningshou Palace.
