famous eldest daughter

Chapter 1127 Soothe the Mind
This time, Xiao Rui returned to Jing'an Hutong to discuss with King Nan'an about entering the palace.

It was originally planned that King Nan'an was going to enter the palace today.

But the news sent by the imperial doctor Zhou was really overjoyed. Obviously, entering the palace on the eighth day of the lunar new year is the perfect time.

In that room, in the palace, Concubine Hui was leaning on the bed in mourning clothes, her face was pale and she was very weak.

Next, Gu Yuqing paid close attention to her filial piety and sat on a wooden chair with two armrests. Her eyes were calm and she looked at Dr. Wang who was standing there and said: "These days, Dr. Zhou will definitely come to you several times to inquire about the physical condition of His Highness the Fourth Prince. , when the time comes, please be patient."

Doctor Wang was dressed in white mourning clothes, with a sad expression on his face, and said, "Don't worry, the empress and Miss Gu, I know how to deal with him."

Gu Yuqing turned to look at Concubine Hui, exhausted. Concubine Hui only blinked briefly. Gu Yuqing understood, stood up and bowed to the Imperial Physician Wang, "Whether His Highness can successfully carry out the coronation ceremony depends entirely on you. "

How dare Dr. Wang accept such a courtesy from Gu Yuqing? He immediately handed it over and said, "Ms. Gu's words are serious."

After several instructions, Imperial Physician Wang withdrew. Concubine Hui drank a cup of bird's nest, took a breath, and said to Gu Yuqing, "Although Xiao Rui is conceited, he is also very smart. If he sees the clues, Woolen cloth."

He sighed deeply, full of worry.

Gu Yuqing stood up and walked to Concubine Hui. She leaned against the bed and sat down. He stretched out his hand to squeeze her legs and said: "Xiao Rui grew up without trouble and troubles. He is very proud of himself. What's more, he has to seize the throne and force the palace. They also want to fight without bloodshed."

"It's a national mourning time again. At this time, they are trying to force the palace. Even if it succeeds in the future, they will be infamy for eternity and they will not be able to get on the stage. King Nan'an and Xiao Rui have been plotting this matter for a long time. If they can find a peaceful way, they I definitely won’t let it go easily.”

"Through the mouth of Imperial Physician Zhou, Xiao Rui and King Nan'an learned that His Highness was not in good health and could not get out of bed at all. In this case, they must have doubts about the identity of His Highness the Fourth Highness during the coronation ceremony on the eighth day of the lunar month."

"Even if he sees the clues, with Xiao Rui's character, he would rather take a gamble. If the gamble wins, he, as a member of the royal family, will have every reason to eliminate the empress in one fell swoop, and then justifiably support a new puppet king to ascend the throne. , if they fail, they have so much strength behind them that he has nothing to fear."

"What you said is true!" Concubine Hui sighed, "But we are afraid that we will tie ourselves up. Instead, we let them succeed. Although Dong Ce's disguise is very similar to Yu'er, since King Nan'an came prepared, he must have wanted to be in front of everyone. Expose Dong Ce’s true face, and if he succeeds, we will have no way out.”

Gu Yuqing smiled confidently, "Don't worry, ma'am, he won't get it."

Looking at Concubine Hui's pale face, Gu Yuqing changed the subject, "My Majesty, your health is important, you'd better take a break. Wait until night, there will be three more crying sessions, and your Majesty cannot be absent from those three sessions. Now, I can help you, so you can just close your eyes and rest your mind."

The palace invited eminent monks from Fahua Temple and Dafo Temple to chant scriptures.

Today was the first scene. Concubine Hui stayed with her for two hours from beginning to end, and then she fainted in the mourning hall.

If it were normal, for her, even if she was a little tired after two hours, it would not be the same.

But now that she was pregnant, she had always had a bad appetite and had severe morning sickness. These two hours were really killing her.

Gu Yuqing really didn't dare to tell Concubine Hui that after she fainted, her lower body was bleeding slightly.

"There is me over there in the mourning hall. Don't worry about me or the Princess of Pingxi Palace. She is here to take care of you. It's okay. You can rest peacefully. When it's time to cry, I'll have someone call you. .”

If you don't take a good rest and you really have a miscarriage, that's the real trouble!

Concubine Hui wanted to hold on, but her head felt heavy and her eyelids were trembling, so she followed Gu Yuqing's words, turned around and lay down, "Thank you for your hard work," she said weakly.

As soon as he lay down, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Gu Yuqing gently covered Concubine Hui with the quilt, turned around and left, went out of the inner room, and said to Concubine Hui's personal maid: "Did you invite the eldest lady of Yongning Houfu?"

The palace maid immediately said: "As soon as you gave the order, I immediately sent someone to invite him. He should be here soon."

Gu Yuqing nodded, "If the lady wakes up later, you can give her half a bowl of bird's nest porridge. There is a tranquilizer in the porridge, so don't let her notice it."

The palace maid promised, "I know that your Majesty's body will not be able to bear it if you don't rest." As she spoke, her eyes turned red, "Just now, Mr. Xingui came to make a scene, saying that the Empress was in the Sixth Palace at this time. The leader should set an example, why should the concubine of the Sixth Palace kneel down while she hides and relaxes by herself?"

Knowing that Concubine Hui had taken the medicine to soothe the nerves and fell into a deep sleep, the maid still couldn't help but lower her voice, "Listen, what are you talking about? In the mourning hall, our empress fainted, but everyone I saw it with my own eyes, and carried the empress back to the bedroom, she was bleeding from her lower body at that time, and the blood was scattered on the ground, everyone witnessed it with their own eyes, and they actually said such words!"

"If His Majesty was still here, she wouldn't dare to give her ten courages! Now that His Majesty is gone, she, a little noble person, dares to act like a monster in front of our queen, not because our mother-in-law's family is weak. "

"Even if His Highness the Fourth is going to ascend the throne, she has made the right calculation. If His Highness ascends the throne under such circumstances, he will definitely not dare to do anything to her as an elder. That's why he is so bold! She is too bullying!"

Gu Yuqing raised her hand and patted the palace maid on the shoulder, comforting her: "Don't care what she did, she was just being used as a weapon without knowing it. The one you really want to keep an eye on for the empress is Concubine Qi."

"Concubine Qi?" The palace maid wiped her tears and looked puzzled, "Concubine Qi only has a princess and no prince."

Gu Yuqing shook his head, "To be disrespectful, if Concubine Hui disappears, even if His Royal Highnesses ascend the throne, according to the seniority of His Majesty's concubines at that time, Concubine Qi was the eldest at that time. At that time, she would be the only candidate for the Queen Mother."

With Gu Yuqing's advice, the palace maid was suddenly enlightened and said with a stern expression, "I know this!"

While they were talking, a palace maid led Dong Xueyi in, who was dressed in mourning clothes.

Gu Yuqing hurriedly welcomed him out.

Although Dong Xueyi had planned to frame Gu Yuqing for Dong Ce in the Yongning Hou Mansion before, but this time is not the time to take these personal grievances into consideration.

Concubine Hui’s closest relatives are the Dong family.

The most capable female member of the Dong family is Dong Xueyi.

Although Bai Yuetang is not bad, she is too young compared to being ruthless. What's more, Bai Yuetang's feelings for Concubine Hui cannot be compared with Dong Xueyi!
Furthermore, Dong Xueyi is now a widowed mother with a young son. She wants to give her son a good future, and the best shortcut is to rely on Concubine Hui and Xiao Yu.

Dong Xueyi is a smart person, and there are many things that Gu Yuqing doesn't need to mention at all.
