Chapter 60: The third prince went up the mountain to pray for the queen
Lenggong.
Bei Hengyuan is feeling better after taking the antidote again, but his face looks even paler now than when he was poisoned. The purpose is to deceive others, and now he spends every day in the cold palace with his mother.
Concubine Qin was deprived of her position as a concubine and no longer had her former glory. Wearing coarse linen clothes, he sat blankly in his room all day long and muttered: "It was me who harmed the Qin family. It was me who harmed my eldest brother and father. They were completely unaware of this matter and died so unjustly. I hate, hate dogs." The emperor is cruel and unkind. He hates the dog emperor for only favoring the prince. He hates the dog emperor for not caring about the relationship between husband and wife. Yuan'er, are we rebelling?"
"Mother, be careful what you say!" Bei Hengyuan's expression suddenly changed, and he coughed twice to remind Qin Wan.
His mother-in-law is good at everything, she just likes to do as she pleases. sooner or later.
That’s all! After all, she is still his mother-in-law.
It is impossible for him not to be angry when the Qin family is in trouble. After all, the emperor was still cold-hearted and did not let the Qin family go because he had saved him. At the same time, he also knew that if she really died of illness, Concubine Qin would not live long.
The conditions in the cold palace were extremely shabby, and they only had to eat chaffy vegetables every day. The only chair in the room was reserved for the frail Bei Hengyuan. Concubine Qin could only sit on the threshold like a withered branch, looking at the big locust tree with buds in the courtyard, and cursed Emperor Yu loudly.
"Yuan'er, your grandfather and your uncle cannot die in vain. This matter must be investigated clearly. The prince's blood must be used to pay tribute to their spirits in heaven."
Qin Wan looked sinister and dug her nails deeply into her flesh.
"There is also the Ji family, we can't let it go." She never expected that the Ji family would appear to be neutral, but in fact they would secretly help the prince. In this Jizhou incident, without the help of the Ji family, she did not believe that the prince alone would be able to find her out. And who wrote the unwritten note?
“Mother, Baiji is dead.” Bei Hengyuan suddenly spoke.
Qin Wan, who was sitting blankly, suddenly turned around: "Dead, dead? Who did it?"
Bei Hengyuan shook his head: "We haven't found anything yet. According to the informant, he died on the way back to Shengjing. He said he met a group of refugees, and I will go and investigate."
At this moment, Eunuch De gave a loud shout, and the two of them were suddenly startled.
“The Emperor is here!”
Emperor Yu, who strode in, glared at Qin Wan fiercely and looked at him with a look of resentment. If it wasn't for Yuan'er's sake, how could he have spared her life?
"Yuan'er, the conditions in the Leng Palace are difficult. Go back to the Yuehua Palace!" This was the second time in the past five days that Emperor Yu persuaded him to return to the Leng Palace.
Bei Hengyuan wanted to salute, but Emperor Yu waved him away.
He heard him say: "Father, I know that my time is short, and I just want to spend more time with my mother."
Emperor Yu was very moved. Concubine Qin was a bitch-hearted, but the son she gave birth to was a filial son.
If this son had no filial piety, six years ago he would not have said to him with a relaxed face just because he learned that he drank the poisonous tea: "Father, that's great. My son drank the poisonous tea for you, and my father will be fine." , you will live a long life.”
Thinking of this, Emperor Yu finally softened his heart. "That's all, that's all. Let's move out of the Cold Palace with your mother and concubine, live in Yuehua Palace, and stay with Yuan'er from now on, okay?"
Bei Hengyuan was so moved that he shed tears, and gave a vivid interpretation of a filial son: "My son, I thanked my father for caring about the child and feeding him back when he was dying."
“Get up, get up, you are sick, please don’t kneel down from now on.”
Bei Hengyuan agreed to move out of the cold palace, and Emperor Yu was also very happy. Bei Hengyuan took the opportunity to ask for a favor. "Father, I want to take my mother to Huguo Temple to pray for my mother. Isn't my mother's birthday coming soon? I want to pray for my mother's peace and blessings. I will take care of my mother every year."
"Okay, okay, Yuan'er is interested, go ahead, father will make arrangements right away."
Diary Longyan of Emperor Yu was very happy.
When something happened to the Qin family, it was the greatest blessing that Yuan'er didn't hate the queen. Sure enough, his Yuan'er was the kindest.
Here, the queen looked suspicious when she learned that Bei Hengyuan was going to take Qin Wan up the mountain to pray for her. "Mo'er, do you think Qin Wan will use this as an excuse to escape?"
The prince picked up the teapot and filled a cup of tea for the queen, and said calmly: "Probably not. If she escapes, the third brother's condition will only worsen."
"Is there a possibility that the third child did it on purpose?" This time the Qin family encountered a disaster, did Bei Hengyuan really not hate her and the prince?
Hearing this, the prince’s hand holding the cup paused.
Did you let Concubine Qin escape on purpose?
This whole world is not the land of kings. Where can she, a sinful woman, escape to? A smart person will not run away.
Along with this news, the palace poster for the celebration banquet in the evening also reached the Ji family. Ji Hua is working hard to practice raising her head and turning over. He tried to sit up but quickly fell down, very annoyed.
The round breast dumplings are rolling around on the small bed, the scene is very funny.
After the tenth failure, gave up.
Just playing with his little feet and listening to his parents and brothers discussing important matters.
Banquets and the like were just things that Emperor Yu made for outsiders to see. The Ji family did not care about them. They only cared about the movements of the third prince.
I don’t know since when my father and brothers started discussing important matters in the court without avoiding my mother. But that’s okay, I can also know where the plot is going.
Three days have passed since I met Mrs. Qin at the city gate. During these three days, everyone in the Ji Mansion had a very comfortable life.
The Qin family has been defeated, and Mrs. Qin will never make an issue with Ji Hua's baby brother again. Qin Hai, who used to like to encourage Ji Linfeng to eat and drink wildly instead of doing his job, and to visit flower houses across the mountain, also died.
No one will smear the Ji family’s reputation outside.
The Ji family was surprised that all the men of the Qin family were beheaded. After thinking about it, I realized that Concubine Qin had made a huge mistake. Killing her alone was not enough to appease Emperor Yu's anger. The Jiang family was completely dragged into the trap by Concubine Qin.
I have to say that the third prince used this strategy of slowing down the troops well. If successful, Concubine Qin will not only survive, but her case will be overturned in the future. If defeated.
Failed? There is no failure in the third prince's life motto.
As his thoughts came back, Ji Yushu's voice came to his ears: "Concubine Qin moved into the Yuehua Palace. Ever since Concubine Qin moved into the Cold Palace, the third prince moved in under the guise of feeling sorry for his mother. Emperor Yu felt sorry for the third prince. Being weak, he went to the cold palace to persuade the third prince to come out. "
“The third prince certainly knows how to deal with his Majesty. When he agreed, he also asked for the grace of Concubine Qin to go out to Huguo Temple to pray for the Queen.”
The news was sent by the prince. He placed an informant around the third prince, with the purpose of monitoring Concubine Qin, lest she jump over the wall in a hurry.
【Pray for the queen? 】
【I think his praying for blessings is fake, but discussing weird ideas is real. 】
At the Queen's birthday party, Concubine Qin gave the Queen a piece of poisonous jade. The Queen did not want to show her face in public, so she accepted it. Now, Concubine Qin is in trouble and cannot attend the Queen's birthday party, but this jade must be given away. So, I went out to come up with some weird ideas. 】
【If the Queen's plot does not collapse, then this jade must be delivered to the Queen by another person. It has to be someone she trusts. Who is the one? 】
When they heard about the poisonous jade, the four of them panicked. If something happens to the queen, the prince will go crazy.
The third prince seemed to be in a hurry to go up the mountain to pray for blessings. He took Concubine Qin to Huguo Temple as soon as he came out of the cold palace. He didn't return until the end of Shenshi.
At the same time, he brought back an unexpected person.
Master Cifeng.
This person is highly virtuous and respected by everyone in Beijing. In addition, this person also has some divination skills.
It is said that a few years ago, Master Cifeng went to the south of the Yangtze River to seek nectar for the drought-stricken people, and he became famous ever since.
Ji Hua has some impressions of Master Cifeng. There is a mention in the original work, which shows that Lu Yiyi is still a strange soul. It can be seen that he is a man of some ability.
Just when everyone was wondering why this man followed the third prince into the palace, the prince sent someone to bring news that shocked everyone.
"What? The emperor specially appointed Master Cifeng as the national advisor and gave him a residence in the former Qin family mansion." The news came unexpectedly.
Ji Hua was confused.
Isn’t this the case in the original work?
Before everyone could figure it out, another big news came out: "Master Cifeng, watching the sky at night, divined that the third prince's fate should not be cut off, and he was destined to have a noble person to help him. And he accurately predicted that the noble person would be on March 3rd. Appeared on Shangsi Festival.”
Ji Hua was stunned and suddenly realized.
