Harem strategy

Chapter 157 face to face

Over the past few decades, Wang's family has enjoyed a lot of glory, even the Empress Dowager's natal family is also the emperor's natal family.The first family of the entire Great Chu.

Whoever can marry into the Wang family is an honor, and whoever can marry a girl from the Wang family will definitely not have a good future.

Now these people don't know what to think in their hearts.

And at this time, the imperial concubine's father passed away unexpectedly.After the Yang family got the news, they quickly sent someone to deliver the funeral ceremony, and the next day, Mrs. Yang and Princess Changning went to Wu Mansion to help Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Yun, greet the guests.

Yang Fen, the husband of Princess Changning, made great contributions during the rebellion this time, beheaded Cheng Engong, and rescued the courtiers, so more people surrounded Mrs. Yang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Not a lot, because the Yun family is about to be the prince's grandmother on the bright side.

Although some people have found out that Mrs. Yun robbed someone's husband when she was young, but after all these years, Mrs. Yun is still the mother of the imperial concubine in name, and it is said that she has entered the palace quite often, so everyone He also showed his favor to Yun Shi openly, and when the imperial concubine couldn't understand Yun Shi, everyone could choose how to treat Yun Shi.

Master Wu’s funeral, because the imperial concubine said that there is no need to do it, so I just asked the people in the Ministry of Rites to do it according to the specifications of the county prince’s funeral, but everyone knows the direction of the wind, so there are so many sacrificial sheds on the road. Not a single street was done.

Master Wu's coffin will be sent to his hometown for burial.

And the family of Master Wu Er, who was far away from other places, did not rush back until the last day when he was about to send Master Wu back to his hometown.

As soon as Master Wu Er's family came back, they immediately burst into tears, crying about why his eldest brother was so miserable, and there was not even a soul-bearer.

The meaning of this is very clear. I want to adopt the heirs of the big house at this time. These years, they have lived in that barbaric and uninhabited place. It is a bitter life. Look at the age of these people. Obviously several years older than her actual age.

Even the old lady Wu who followed her was getting old.

However, even if this is the case, if they want to come back, if they don’t have the official document above, they can’t return it. The place over there is remote and the population is small, but there are guards guarding it. Go back, otherwise you will not be able to enter other places. It can be said that in the past few years, it has really been a very lonely life. Mrs. Wu regretted that she had to follow her second son. The capital city is the first one, and there will be nothing missing.

Look, now my eldest granddaughter is the imperial concubine. When I was about to arrive in the capital, I also heard that the emperor wanted to make the third prince the crown prince. It turned out that the queen mother was also defeated by my granddaughter.Wouldn't this Wu family be the first in the capital in the future, perhaps even better than the Wang family?

So when Mrs. Wu came back this time, she made up her mind not to go out anymore, but to stay in the capital.

And Master Wu Er's family also planned in the same way. The eldest niece and daughter are becoming more and more promising, and can be said to be the No. 1 in the harem, so they will definitely get greater benefits if they stay in the capital.

Besides, with so much money in this big house, there is no need to make it easier for outsiders.

Yun also cried and said: "Second brother rushed back, not to mention the matter of adopting the master, not to mention sending the master back to his hometown in person, even if he wants to adopt, he has to wait for the master to be buried in peace, how can we talk about it now? Two The younger brother is the master's own younger brother, so I will have to trouble the second brother and a few nephews to send the master to his hometown."

Mrs. Wu Er immediately said: "We have been sick several times on the way back from thousands of miles away. If we have to travel such a long distance, sister-in-law is hoping that the second master will take care of my son? Is it really not my son? , don't feel bad!"

After hearing this, Yun said: "In this case, you should rest well, and I will send the master back to his hometown with the members of the Wu family."

The old lady Wu said: "No, these members of the Wu family are all out of reach, how can I let them send them?"

"You can't do this, and you can't do that. Do you want to watch the coffin of the master parked in the temple in the suburbs? You are willing, but the imperial concubine is not happy. This matter is my wife's business." Son, the first house and the second house are separated. I, the wife of the first house, don’t need to listen to you. If you are not convinced, then let’s go to the palace and talk to the empress! However, I advise you, don’t mess with me. The empress is angry, because the empress is giving birth in the past few days, if the empress is angry, the emperor will not forgive you! In the capital, the heads of the Wang family have been chopped off by the emperor. Do you really want to see Does the emperor look angry?"

At this time, it's not the time when there was no separation before. She is alone now, what is she afraid of?
It's just that the person from the second room can't take over the house of the big room.

Second Mrs. Wu still wanted to provoke Yun Shi, and the messenger from the palace came.

The old lady Wu thought, it must be that the imperial concubine knows that her grandmother is back, so she is going to take her into the palace. At that time, she can cry and cry next to the imperial concubine, maybe she can Get a bigger order!

It turned out that the imperial concubine and the imperial concubine came here, as well as someone sent by the emperor, who came to convey the meaning of the emperor and the imperial concubine.

Master Wu Zhengyi, after returning to pay homage to Master Wu, set off immediately before continuing to take office, because Master Wu does not have to observe filial piety for three years, and in the first hundred days before he takes office, he is not allowed to drink, have fun, have children, and wear plain clothes. The official has no influence, so given that Wu Zhengyi has done very well as the county magistrate in the local area, the emperor took it easy and let Master Wu Er continue to go to the original place and be his own county magistrate.

As for the words brought by the imperial concubine, it was for the Yun family and the son-in-law and aunt of the Lian family to send Master Wu back to his hometown together.Then, in the side branch of the Wu family, choose an orphan whose parents both died, so that he can take care of him well, and he can be regarded as inheriting the incense for Master Wu.

Moreover, after choosing an heir, he has to stay in his hometown for three years, and then choose whether to come to the capital or not.

And for the sake of safety, the emperor also sent someone to escort Master Wu's coffin back to his hometown. The son-in-law and aunt of the Lian family can come back after Master Wu is buried in peace.

The so-called imperial power is above everything else, the emperor also sent someone from the imperial concubine to say that the old lady Wu, the second master Wu, and the second wife Wu are all dumbfounded.

They want to fight for the position of the heir of this big house, a large part of it comes from the imperial concubine in the palace, or in other words, from the benefits brought to them by the imperial concubine.

Now the imperial concubine and concubine have spoken out, not letting the person in the second room be an heir.

If they insisted on doing this, it would be against the imperial concubine's wishes, not to mention the benefits in the future, even their current status would be lost.

Moreover, it is really a bolt from the blue to let Master Wu Er return to his original place now.

Master Wu Er and his wife are not arrogant anymore, they really don't want to go back to that place, they don't see a few people all day long, even though they are the magistrates of the county, they don't even have any oil or water, they eat meat every day, Don't say, it's a good day to eat meat every day. Vegetables are more expensive than meat in that place, okay? Eating vegetables is like eating money. It's really distressing.

Now, the emperor wants Master Wu Er to go back, isn't that killing them?

Master Wu Er and Mrs. Wu Er immediately interceded with Yun Shi, asking her to enter the palace and say good things to the imperial concubine, telling them not to go, that place is really unbearable.

They thought that this was because Yun's sued the imperial concubine, so they let them do this. They didn't expect that after these few years, Yun's relationship with the imperial concubine would be improved.It's just that imagination.

Yun said: "The emperor trusts the second younger brother, and even the official documents have been prepared. How can the emperor go back on his word for such a small matter? What is the majesty of the emperor like that? I advise the second younger brother and younger siblings to go on the road early. If mother doesn't want to go, just go back to my hometown with me. Although mother, you chose to follow the second younger brother's family at the beginning, but I am not a cruel person, so I will take good care of mother. I have decided to keep my filial piety in my hometown, so I am not planning to go back to the capital to deliver the master's coffin this time, mother, what do you think?"

Mrs. Wu didn't want to go to that desolate place with her second son, nor did she want to go back to her hometown. How wonderful is the capital, she asked, "Can't you just stay in the capital?"

Yun said: "Master has passed away now, as his wife, I will stay for three years no matter what."

"Wouldn't it be enough for you to be a wife for one year?" Like her mother who is the eldest, she is an elder, so she doesn't have to guard at all.

"I only guard for one year, but what about the heir, if the heir doesn't guard for three years, I will feel sorry for my master!" Sure enough, the mother and son are so selfish, and their daughter-in-law wants to guard their son for a few more years. A mother should be happy, but this old lady Wu said such things because she didn't want to stay in the country, she was really selfish as hell!
Regardless of whether Master Wu Er agreed or not, he was sent to the original small county by the people sent by the emperor.

Master Wu Er's two sons and daughter-in-law didn't want to stay there, it was too desolate.

They plan to go back to their hometown as well, and after observing the uncle's filial piety, they will talk about the situation later.Now they are the cousins ​​of the imperial concubine, what's the matter, it's good to find something to do.But Master Wu Er thought, as an old man, he has to endure hardships, but you, a son, want to leave your parents and enjoy it alone because you are afraid of suffering?How can this be?

If you want to endure hardship, let's eat together. Although Mrs. Wu Er wanted to intercede for her two sons, Master Wu Er just disagreed.

Mrs. Wu said to Yun: "Sister-in-law, you can keep your nephew. When you want to adopt a stepchild, they can help."

Second Mrs. Wu thought, this Yun family seems to have a good relationship with the imperial concubine now, and she can let the imperial concubine speak for her, so it's better not to get too stiff with this Yun family, the son was born by her, so you have to plan for them Well, if you stay in that place for the rest of your life, what will you do in the future?

Yun thought about it, since the imperial concubine has spoken, there is also her daughter and son-in-law here, and she really needs a male from their side if she wants to adopt a child. The two children of the second room seem to be quite They are not as bad as their parents. Just look at them again. It is impossible for a person to have no relatives.

If they have a good heir, or if they can’t adopt a good heir in their hometown at that time, they can adopt a grandson from among their sons. When they come down, they will be adopted. She can definitely teach the children to only be close to her.

"That's fine, two nephews, do you want to follow your father and the others, or follow us back to our hometown!"

"My uncle needs to be buried. We came back late and didn't do our best. This time, we must accompany my aunt and grandmother back to my hometown."

Sometimes it is really sad to have no males, Yun agreed.

Master Wu Er and Mrs. Wu Er were sent away like a gust of wind.

Li Jialuo also knew that the matter was resolved in this way in the end. The worst of the family of the second room of the Wu family is Master Wu Er and Mrs. Wu Er.Besides, just like what she discussed with the emperor, she is not a girl from the Wu family, so if she really wants to deal with it, she will definitely not be lenient, and then others will praise her for righteousness and killing her relatives.So Li Jialuo is not afraid of the people of the Wu family making troubles at all.

Fortunately, this Master Wu could not speak in the end. If he could speak, in the end, for the sake of having such a promising daughter, he might be affectionate and wanted to be buried with Qian. Li Jialuo felt that if he heard this last word, Absolutely spit it out.

When Qian was not wanted at the beginning, he was so decisive, but now if he really wanted to show his affection, he would definitely do it very well.

What's more, Qian Shi would never be buried with him, it would be an insult to Qian Shi.

Even if this incident hit Yun Shi very hard, Li Jialuo would not agree. Qian Shi and her daughter might have been reincarnated underground. Why would such a man disturb their peace?

In the palace, the queen mother is still locked up, and the emperor did not say that she will be dealt with now. After all, she committed such a shocking thing, and her death is only a matter of time.

If you are ashamed, you will definitely commit suicide immediately when the matter is exposed, so as to avoid suffering in the future.After all, if you want to live a bad life alone, there are many ways, especially in the palace.

However, the queen mother didn't know what to think, she just lived strong and didn't want to commit suicide at all.Looks like I can live a few more years
It means that many people think that the Queen Mother is too hard-hearted, what good is it to live?

The emperor didn't let her guards deliberately make things difficult for her, or didn't give her food or drink, none of these.

Or follow the normal situation, three meals a day.Regardless of the fact that there are no longer those people around her, and the identity of the queen mother has also been taken away, she is just a sinner now!
The emperor did not kill the empress dowager, because the empress dowager was his aunt in terms of identity. If she really killed her ruthlessly, it would probably be called unfilial. This is the helplessness of the rules in the world.

However, the patriarch of the Xiao family, King Min County, felt that this matter could not be dragged on any longer. How could this Queen Mother be allowed to live?It's a waste of food to take care of her after doing such a thing!

The king of the county wants the queen mother to die immediately!So what if you just dealt with the people of the Wang family?Not enough at all, the Queen Mother is the culprit.

However, other members of the Xiao family also said: "Like the queen mother, it is generally regarded as committing suicide in fear of crime. Does the emperor have other arrangements?"

Just as he was saying this, news came from the palace that the Queen Mother was ill.The king of the county was happy, so he knew that the emperor was not a soft-hearted person. The queen mother was sick, even if it was 'sick', no one would speak ill of the emperor, the queen mother should have died long ago.

Now it's all right, the queen mother's illness must be cured.It would not be a pity for this kind of woman to die a thousand times!

A woman has such big ambitions. The ancestors of the Xiao family conquered the country, and she wanted to change the country's surname by stealing the dragon and turning the phoenix. It is really a dream.

But the Queen Mother is really not 'sick', she is really sick herself, the Queen Mother's willpower is not weak, she doesn't want to die at all, because she knows that as long as she lives by herself, the emperor will not be able to die. Give her death, she is the emperor's aunt, unless the late emperor has a will to kill her, otherwise she must be allowed to live.That's the rule.

But she forgot that now she is no longer the queen mother, that is to say, she is not the emperor's aunt, so she can barely be regarded as the emperor's elder.

She got sick this time because she had a nightmare at night, dreaming of the late emperor, who pinched her neck and asked her why she wanted to harm his descendants like this.The queen mother woke up with a start, and now she caught a cold and fell ill.She thought about her life, she had lived a vigorous life, could it be that the evening scene must be so bleak?
She knew that the emperor would not kill her for the sake of a good reputation, because after all, as the emperor's aunt, she had raised the emperor for decades.On this point, those civil servants will definitely persuade the emperor and want her, the queen mother, to "die naturally". In this way, the emperor's reputation will be gained, and she will not live well, and will pass away soon.

There were 1 dissatisfaction in her heart, and she didn't ask clearly, how could she be willing to die.

The emperor was at Li Jialuo's side, and he said to Li Jialuo: "Wang's side, I want to wait for you to give birth to the child and finish confinement before disposing of her, otherwise the child will die in this palace before it is born." It's not good for an older person."

In fact, the emperor still wanted to vent his anger on Li Jialuo. After all, the queen mother did a lot of things against Li Jialuo. The imperial concubine must have something to say to the queen mother. Excited, something happened, what should I do?
So what the emperor meant was that the Queen Mother would die sooner or later, let her also taste the feeling of falling from a height, but he didn't let anyone humiliate her, because the emperor felt that it would be too out of place.But this feeling of being neglected is enough for the Queen Mother, since she doesn't want to die, she should feel this low place more often.Doesn't she like to chant scriptures and practice Buddhism? It just so happened that she found a room with only her alone, and went to worship Buddha properly.

After hearing this, Li Jialuo said, "I reckon that the Queen Mother must have a lot to ask me. It's time to clarify with her."She won't add insult to injury, but it is impossible not to avenge her grandfather's revenge. She entered the palace not only to avenge her kindness, but also to avenge her grandfather. If the queen mother is not dead, how can she be considered revenge?
Although the queen mother is so tenacious, does she really think that after raising the emperor for decades, people can forgive her and let her survive like this?
This so-called upbringing also includes poisoning the emperor.

By the way, Li Jialuo thought of one thing, and hurriedly said to the emperor: "Those civil servants heard the conversation between you and the Queen Mother, and know that the emperor was poisoned since childhood, and the princes born after that will not be healthy. How do you explain to others that Luo'er and Yuan'er are healthy?" After all, Li Jialuo's true identity has not been disclosed to others.

The emperor smiled and said: "Those courtiers, don't need me to say, they will think for themselves, and they will definitely think that since I knew about this in advance, I also secretly searched for someone, or cured my illness, or followed me. Like the Wang family, I found those pills for you."

So they must have thought in their hearts that their own emperor was even more different from the imperial concubine, so it would be absolutely easy for the third prince born to the imperial concubine to become the prince.

Because the emperor only gave birth to a healthy prince with the imperial concubine, if not the third prince, who would he be?
Those who originally wanted to establish an eldest son, after hearing such inside information, will definitely not establish an eldest prince again, because the body of an elder prince is not enough to be an emperor at all, and they may not even have any heirs in the future. If a person establishes an emperor and has no heirs at that time, wouldn't he still have to adopt the children born to other princes? Instead of doing this, it is better to abandon the eldest prince and make the third prince the crown prince. In this way, everyone is satisfied, and the emperor is also satisfied.

Moreover, they calculated that since entering the palace, the imperial concubine has really done nothing to harm the country and the people. Just because she was favored by the emperor, she was calculated by the queen dowager. In the end, the words that the queen dowager said were all aimed at the imperial concubine Yes, the Queen Mother has been proven to be a bad person, so the person she wants to kill is naturally a good person.

Almost half a month later, the imperial concubine finally gave birth. This time it was another son, the sixth prince. The name was already chosen before the birth, and it was called Xiaotong. Finally, the Wang family rebelled in the palace. Afterwards, there was a happy event.

The birth of the sixth prince made the aristocratic families in the capital very happy, because the emperor would be happy, and this happiness would prevent them from killing like the royal family.

You must know that during this incident, many people who have close or distant relations with the Wang family are trembling, for fear that they will be implicated, and their families will be ruined at that time.

Executioners, there is nothing ambiguous about killing people.

Now that the emperor got another prince, the mood will always be better. Once the mood is good, maybe some families who have made minor mistakes will be spared, and this family will escape the catastrophe.

Everyone guessed right, because the imperial concubine gave birth to another prince, so the emperor did not continue to pursue those unrelated people. The bloody storm in the capital for nearly a month finally subsided.

And the Li family, who realized it later, heard from somewhere that the reason why the first prince was born was because of his weak health, and scolded the queen mother and the Wang family severely. To relieve my anger, I thought that if the emperor hadn't been drugged, maybe the first prince would be healthy. In this way, wouldn't the first prince be a certain prince?After all, the empress did not have a son, and the eldest prince was the eldest son, so he should have been crowned prince.So this feeling of injustice became more and more intense, and he wished that the palace would talk to the emperor about it.

It's just that they didn't think about it, why should the emperor tell them?In this history, how many people are really the eldest son who succeeded to the throne?
Still thinking that the eldest son is the crown prince is simply fantastic.

"But, the eldest prince has become like this, the emperor should feel guilty, he should compensate the eldest prince and Li Jieyu." Everyone in the Li family thought so.

This kind of thinking itself is wrong, the emperor will feel guilty about this matter?He is also a victim. Because of the eldest prince, the members of the Li family have suddenly changed from a farming family in the countryside to a rich family. Enjoying these wealth, isn't it enough?
The emperor doesn't need to feel guilty towards anyone, because he didn't feel sorry for the eldest prince.If the members of the Li family feel unconvinced, they should settle accounts with the members of the Wang family.

What's more, the reason why the third and fourth princes are healthy is also because of the blessings of his own biological mother. Just because the third and fourth princes are healthy, you should not think that they should let the first prince. This is too absurd.

It's fine if the people of the Li family don't do anything, but if they do something, the emperor will never let the people of the Li family go.

As for the feeling of guilt, he has already paid it back. The emperor knew that it was the Li family who planned the affairs of the Wu family, which almost ruined the reputation of the Wu family and the imperial concubine.After doing such a thing, they should be grateful that they were not sentenced to exile.

"Another prince was born?" Li Jieyu was very disappointed when she heard the news. There were three princes, and her eldest prince had no chance at all. There were three princes, and she was an imperial concubine. She even defeated the queen mother and the royal family. , such a person, does she dare to provoke her now?dare not!

The emperor's heart has always been biased. He only wants the imperial concubine to give birth to a healthy prince. What are they?

Some people might say that when Li Jieyu gave birth to the first prince, he didn't even know that he was drugged, that's why the first prince is like this.So the eldest prince deserves it?
But what if you are not reconciled?It's not the time when she was in the countryside, she could find others to fight and scold once, how dare she talk to the imperial concubine now.

Li Jieyu thought, maybe the emperor, with this guilt, would give her son a good fief and then give some compensation, then she would have a good life.

Now in this palace, except for her eldest prince, all the princes were born to the imperial concubine. Li Jieyu was a little apprehensive when she thought of this. If the imperial concubine also thought of this, look at her eldest prince. It's not pleasing to the eye, so what should I do?

Li Jieyu trembled, she was still thinking that her son could become the crown prince, not only would the crown prince fail, but what if the imperial concubine really became cruel and removed her eldest prince as a thorn in her side, what would she do? In this palace, there is only the eldest prince, a prince who was not born to the imperial concubine.

Thinking about it this way, Li Jieyu was already immersed in the idea of ​​how to save the eldest prince's life, why would she want to compete with the imperial concubine's child for the crown prince?

Li Jialuo gave birth to the sixth prince, and then sat for a full month of confinement, and then went to see the Queen Mother, some things will be settled sooner or later, and during this period, the Queen Mother probably felt that she was sick and her health was not good. Ask to see the imperial concubine every day.

The people who served her didn't listen to her, but after that, they also told their superiors what the Queen Mother said.

The emperor originally wanted to go with Li Jialuo, but Li Jialuo said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, even if she is a tiger, she is now a tiger without teeth, and there are some things that my concubines don't explain clearly to the Queen Mother. Neither of them will be at ease."

The emperor knew that what Li Jialuo was going to talk about was about her grandfather, so he didn't ask to go there together. There are some things that she and the queen mother can talk about without her presence.

The Queen Mother was kneeling and chanting scriptures, when she heard the movement, she didn't even turn her head, and said directly, "You're here?"

Li Jialuo said: "Yes, I am coming!"

The Queen Mother stopped chanting sutras, stood up, and said to Li Jialuo: "The emperor is assured that you will come alone. Are you afraid that I, an old woman, will fight to the death and kill you in the end?"

"Your Majesty, just try and see if you can kill me!" Li Jialuo said with a smile.

The queen mother looked at this woman, and she was defeated by this woman, which made the queen mother unwilling.

What's more, she also heard the people serving here happily say that this woman gave birth to another prince!
She and her two nieces and daughters didn't fight each other. The Queen Mother said: "The Ai family is only lost in the hands of the emperor, not in your hands."

Li Jialuo nodded, "You are right, you lost in the hands of the emperor." As for the losers, what if we make them stiffen their mouths?Anyway, all she had left was a stubborn mouth.

"However, the Ai family only realized now that you are not the real Wu family, you are a descendant of Doctor Li!" Although the Queen Mother is ill, she will not appear sick when she sees her opponent.

During this period of time, she was locked up here. She thought about all the things in the past few years. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. She always felt that she had neglected something. She was still very healthy, but she felt that she suddenly figured it out, she was not a stupid person, but it was too late to figure it out now, everyone in the Wang family was gone, but she became like this.

If it is not a descendant of Dr. Li, why can he have three healthy princes in a row?
One can be said to be called luck, two can barely be called good luck, and three, this is too impossible!Unless she gave birth to a princess, but she gave birth to a prince, there is no other explanation except for the descendants of Miracle Doctor Li!If I had known about this earlier, then it would not be her who lost today, and I would have gotten rid of this imperial concubine earlier, instead of taking it lightly and thinking that she would not be able to make any big waves.

Li Jialuo smiled and said: "The empress dowager is wise, you are right, I am the descendant of Dr. Li, and Dr. Li is my grandfather!"

Seeing Li Jialuo's straightforward admission, the Queen Mother said: "If you bully the emperor like this, aren't you afraid that the emperor will dislike you?"

"The empress dowager wants to threaten me with this? Then the empress dowager can go ahead and tell the emperor, and the emperor said that I will never see you again. How can you tell the emperor? Do you think the people who serve you here, the empress dowager, will do that?" ? Since no, only you and I know, that is, in front of the emperor, do you think the emperor listens to you or to me?"

She just deliberately didn't tell the queen mother that she had confessed to the emperor, and let her regret it. Even if she died, she would feel uncomfortable because of this matter.

As expected, the Queen Mother was so angry that her face turned blue. She held back her anger and said: "I really should let the emperor see what kind of evil his concubine is. The Ai family doesn't have that ability, so they dug such a passage from the ground for the emperor to see." Listen carefully to your words, but there is no impenetrable wall in the world, I hope that when the emperor knows your true identity, you can still be so arrogant!"

"Hehe, it doesn't matter. You know, my grandfather was killed by you, the empress dowager. You know why you killed my grandfather. Do you think the emperor will punish me? Not at all!"

The queen mother calmed down and said: "Aijia finally understands why the emperor has doubts about his own life experience. It turned out to be your fault. You knew from the beginning that Aijia was not the emperor's biological mother, so you Then the emperor doted on you, and you gave birth to a healthy prince, slowly making the emperor suspect that the Ai family really underestimated you before! It’s just that there is another thing that the Ai family can’t figure out, the Ai family also didn’t understand your identity Having doubts, I looked at your back in the Small Buddha Hall, because the Ai family knows that your Li family members will have a pink birthmark under the armpit, why don't you have one?"

Because during the draft, the pink birthmark was not obvious, it was still under the armpit, and it didn't affect the appearance, so half of it would be missed.

Li Jialuo said: "Since I want to enter the palace, how can the Empress Dowager see this? This pink birthmark was removed by my father when I was young, and the Empress Dowager forgot? My grandfather He is a genius doctor. I have been familiar with medical books since I was a child. The empress put a secret medicine in the small Buddha hall. I smelled it when I went in. It was just to cooperate with you, the empress dowager. By the way, I dispelled your suspicion, the empress dowager. I'm disappointed, it really did check me, now, because of you, the Queen Mother, I'm safe."

It is absolutely impossible for the Queen Mother to say that she has no regrets!
Speaking of this incident of seizing the palace, if I had known the identity of the imperial concubine early, I would not have been negligent, thinking that the emperor was addicted to drugs, and thus defeated in one fell swoop.

So, her biggest failure was falling into the hands of this woman.Sure enough, was Doctor Li arranging for her to take revenge?Then Miracle Doctor Li can rest in peace, he has indeed had his revenge.

The Queen Mother laughed, "Sure enough, the Ai family underestimated you. You can even deceive the emperor, and naturally you can also deceive the Ai family, but the emperor will know sooner or later that you are just a liar!"

Li Jialuo sneered and said: "The queen mother has done so many bad things, but she never felt that she was wrong. Once she failed, she just felt that she had not planned well. No matter what, she would definitely succeed. She never reflected on it. Own.

So you are doomed to fail, so I might as well tell you, do you really think that in this palace, I am the only one who knows the life experience of the emperor, and then secretly 'moisturizes everything silently'?

Tell the empress dowager that there are not a few people in the palace who know the emperor's life experience. It's just that you were powerful in the past and others dared not tell it. But people are going to die.The Queen Mother has not forgotten Concubine Lin, right? That Concubine Lin who was framed by you as a thief, she left a letter to the emperor before she died. Guess what it is.There is also Zuo Shi, the biological mother of the second prince, and Zuo Shi’s grandfather, decades ago, received a booklet recording the pulse case, which clearly remembers that you, the empress at that time, had a severe cold in the palace, "Since After talking, Li Jialuo said enough once and for all to make the queen mother sober. Since she said that there is no impenetrable wall in this world, let her see how her wall is airtight.

Now this wall is full of holes.

"Empress Dowager, you probably don't remember which imperial physician informed the Zuo family, because the Zuo family was the Minister of Dali Temple at that time, and the imperial physician thought that he would not be able to escape your poisonous hand, so he prepared in advance. It's just that the people of the Zuo family felt that this booklet was a rare commodity, and they wanted to use this booklet to get some benefits. Unfortunately, things didn't go as they wished. In the end, the Zuo family did something wrong. In order to save their lives, they told the truth This matter, leave it to the emperor. The emperor didn't believe it at that time, but to the empress dowager, how can you not doubt what you did yourself?
Apart from the girl of the Wang family, where would you value the prince born to someone else?This is definitely not something a grandmother should do, and with the intentional reminders from these people, the emperor really won't know, aren't you her biological mother? "

Speaking of which, the biggest flaw is the Queen Mother. If she hadn't been so eager to want the prince born in the Wang family to take the throne, it wouldn't be the current situation. Even if she took the initiative to tell the emperor that she was not his biological mother, the emperor would She was taken care of by her aunt, after all, she raised him up.

It's a pity that the Queen Mother didn't do this step. She felt that as long as she said it, the emperor would not be close to the Wang family, and things in the future would not be easy.So it ended up like this.

People's ambitions cannot be hidden, and the failure of the Queen Mother was due to her too much ambition.

The Queen Mother was about to laugh even more, there is such a thing, it really is a long time only counting others, do you always feel that others can't count yourself?

I hunted eagles all the year round, but one day, my eyes were pecked by an eagle.

"The empress dowager, do you have anything else to ask? If not, I will go back. The sixth prince is still waiting for me." Li Jialuo used this palace.

"Then, one last question from Aijia, since the emperor is so fond of you and has told you so many things, Aijia asks the last question, how did you escape from Changchun Palace in the first place?"

Back then, Deputy Commander Chen surrounded the Changchun Palace. Unless the imperial concubine flew into the sky, how could he escape?This is also one of the reasons for her failure. If Vice Commander Chen was able to capture the imperial concubine and the third and fourth princes at that time, and the emperor cared so much about the imperial concubine, then he could use these three people to threaten the emperor. It is better to go to the capital than to be wiped out now.

Speaking of this, Li Jialuo smiled, "Empress Dowager, why don't you ask how the secret way of your small Buddhist hall came about? That is the place you go every day. Why is there a secret way?"

Li Jialuo had already told the Queen Mother the answer. Since the emperor suspected that the Queen Mother was not his own mother, he hadn't slept well for a while. When he was reading an ancient book in the imperial study, he talked about this ancient secret way.The emperor thought of a way, dug a secret passage from the ground leading to the small Buddhist Hall of the Compassionate Ning Palace, this was done by the hidden guards, and they were all done in the dead of night when no one noticed, so they opened their mouths It took several years of hard work in the deserted courtyard with no human habitation. The emperor dug several passages, and the one in the Yueyue Palace was also built in secret.

But the one in the Yueyue Palace is better than other places, and you need a jade card to enter, while the small Buddhist hall of the Compassionate Ning Palace is just a passage. After the passage was dug, the emperor went to the small Buddhist hall of the Compassionate Ning Palace. Hearing a lot of facts that will never be heard, that's why he was able to seize the opportunity in advance and wipe out the Queen Mother and the Wang family.

Otherwise, why would the emperor be clear about the Queen Mother's arrangements?The people around the Queen Mother were all loyal, but unfortunately they couldn't guard against their feet, and the emperor heard it all.

However, after this incident, the passage leading to the Palace of Compassion and Peace has already been destroyed by people. Too many people know about it, so it doesn't work anymore.

Even Li Jialuo was a little surprised when he knew that his Changchun Palace had also been dug into a secret passage leading to the Yueyue Palace, but it was because the emperor wanted to transfer her and a few children safely, without anyone noticing. of.

After listening to the Queen Mother, she laughed loudly, "Sure enough, he is the son of the late emperor. The Ai family will see that you have a smooth journey in the future, but the Ai family wants to warn you that the love of men will not last long, so don't fall into the Ai family in the future." Such an end."

Li Jialuo said: "Please rest assured, Empress Dowager, I will definitely not end up like you!"

Li Jialuo, the empress dowager's tense body softened when the imperial concubine left. Is her life good or bad? If she could regret it, would she do such a thing?

No, she will still do the same thing. In this palace, it's either you die or I live. She managed to become the queen mother and enjoyed the supreme power for so many years. Guang, they have enjoyed it for decades, so they shouldn't blame themselves, even if she goes underground, she can still explain to the Wang family.

However, she seemed to have forgotten and didn't ask the imperial concubine's real name, so what should she say when she got to the ground?

But now it doesn't matter whether you ask or not.

Li Jialuo returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and the emperor waited early, "Did she say anything nasty?"

Li Jialuo shook his head and said: "The queen mother is not convinced, and there are some things that must be clarified, otherwise she will not be reconciled."

But now that I understand it, I feel even more reconciled.

The emperor said: "Whether you are willing or not, can you change the facts? In my opinion, she should really feel at ease now."

That's right, the Queen Mother really weakened very quickly, and the energy was vented all of a sudden, and the spirit was gone. The day before the emperor made the third prince the crown prince, the Queen Mother died in the house It's just that for a sinner like her, if she died, she would just be given a coffin. The emperor was not harsh, and the coffin he gave was also very thick. He asked people to carry the queen mother out of the palace, because the queen mother was no longer the queen mother. So there was no need for the wives to watch the spirit, they were just carried out quietly. This woman, who had been brilliant for most of her life, turned out like this when she died.

Even if the Queen Mother wanted to enter the imperial tomb, it was impossible for her to enter the imperial tomb because she had betrayed the Xiao family.It's just that the emperor is soft-hearted, but there are still the king of the county and others, they don't want to be with such a poisonous woman in the future.

This is the end of a woman's brilliant life.

And the death of the Queen Mother did not affect such a big event as the canonization of the prince at all. Li Jialuo also told the emperor that the third prince is still young now, isn't it too early to be canonized now?

The emperor felt that now was the right time for the canonization, and he had no intention of appointing someone else as the prince. Anyway, he was the third prince. If he was established as soon as possible, he could arrange for the cultivation of the crown prince as soon as possible, so that he would know his responsibility.

"I thought, in less than ten years, Luoer will be able to stand alone. At that time, I can let go. The emperor is tired of doing it. Ten years later, I will let go of the pick. Taking advantage of these ten years In the coming year, I will hand over what I have learned and know to Luo Er, and he will also let his father relax early."

The purpose of setting up the crown prince is to relieve the emperor.This is really true, poor Luo Er, he is only six years old, but the burden on him has begun to increase.

"Your majesty, don't you think Luo Er is very pitiful?" Thinking about moving to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, it is really hard to watch the emperor approve so many papers every day. For annoyed things, I have to hold back my anger so as not to explode, this will cause internal injuries.

"Why are you pitiful? Concubine Ai should be pitiful to me, but she has been appointed as a prince since she was a child, and she has been so busy until now. As a son, shouldn't he share the burden for his father?" The emperor felt that Concubine Ai only Thinking of my son, not my husband, I was very unhappy.

As for the eldest prince, with his body, would he be able to bear it if he really had to approve so many papers every day?It's a pity that the members of the Li family only see the benefits of being a prince, but not the responsibilities of being a prince. Jia Luo sees this very clearly. The first thing he thinks about is the responsibility of being a prince, not the responsibility of being a prince. How much benefit should be reaped.

So, why can't I pamper such a smart, sensible and general woman?

Is it good to spoil those ignorant women?He is not a fool, who is good and who is bad, if you feel it with your heart, you will naturally understand.

"Ten years later, when the crown prince gets married, let's go to Weifu for a private visit. When I feel that I am the happiest, I will go there for a private visit on Weifu."

"But ten years later, the concubines might be old. At that time, the emperor probably had more newcomers. Where do you remember the concubines?" Li Jialuo said intentionally.

The emperor laughed out loud when he heard this, "A concubine who is jealous is the most beautiful. I have already decided that I will not draft any more. I think that there are enough women in the palace now. If there are more, I can raise them." Sorry."

Li Jialuo never thought about being able to be a couple with the emperor for the rest of his life. This is simply impossible. At least this couple still has Queen Zhao. Since he entered the palace and became a concubine, he already knew that it was impossible for the emperor to have a woman like himself. of.However, their way of getting along is getting better and better now. It is already very good for an emperor who can use his mind to send himself and his children to a safe place to protect them when others are rebelling against them.

People should learn to be content, and those who are not satisfied will often fall into the abyss of desire, desire and ambition.

Think about it, ten years later, if he can really go out for a walk, Li Jialuo will be a little excited thinking about it, although he feels a little sorry for his son, but at that time, Luoer has grown up, so naturally he has his wife Worry about him, as a mother, she should worry less, otherwise the child's clan will not grow up.

"The emperor made a promise. After ten years, I will bring my concubine to Weifu for a private visit! Don't break your promise. Otherwise, my concubine will not obey me!" Li Jialuo said.

"Naturally, Aifei doesn't feel sorry for Luo Er anymore?" The emperor said jokingly.

"Well, at that time, he already had a wife. Naturally, a daughter-in-law would love her dearly. As an old lady, I should go to the other side." Li Jialuo said helplessly.

As he spoke, he couldn't help laughing, and the emperor also laughed. At this moment, the two of them felt unprecedentedly peaceful.
