At this moment, a big event also happened in the capital - the sixth prince, Prince Qian, fell ill with an epidemic. Many imperial doctors were helpless, and it seemed that the sixth prince was about to die!
In Prince Qian's Mansion, Li Qian was lying on the bed, with a pale face and purple lips. He squinted his eyes, exhaled half of his turbid air, and struggled to spit out half a word: "Water... water..."
A little head came up, with an innocent smile on his young face: "Father, do you want a drink of water?"
As soon as Li Gan saw the child, he felt as if he had seen a ghost. His eyes suddenly widened and he said hatefully: "Why are you here? Who let you in? Get out! Get out!"
The evil smile on the child's face suddenly disappeared, his innocent and lovely eyes suddenly became deep and unknowable, and a sneer appeared on his thin lips. He clasped his hands in front of his chest, calmly Looking at Li Qian, he said coldly in a voice that was completely inconsistent with his age: "Of course you don't want to see me, because you are afraid that people will know that I am not your biological son, and that people will know about your scandal! But now you can't decide, But it is up to me, the Crown Prince, to have the final say!”[
Li Qian's eyes widened even more, and his eyes were full of disbelief: "You are talking nonsense, you are talking nonsense, how could my father make you the crown prince? It is absolutely impossible!"
"Grandpa Huang heard that you had the plague and had already given birth to him. He cared deeply that I was your only son, so he naturally gave me the position of Crown Prince!" Li Yan showed his lovely smile again, "Now the palace Everyone here also listens to my words, because they know that you, the Qianwang, will die soon, and in the future, I will be the master of this palace!"
Li Qian stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to catch Li Yan, but Li Yan easily pulled back, then tilted his head, smiled, and left the room, not forgetting to close the door for him. Read the full text of the rich military marriage.
For a moment, Li Qian felt like the world was spinning, and several pictures in his mind passed before his eyes one by one...
Lily, his favorite concubine, was lying on the ground. Next to her was his personal bodyguard, the person he had trusted for ten years.
"Why?" He was hysterical. Although he couldn't see clearly, the blurry shadow in front of him made him even more annoyed.
"You say you like me and love me, but you are just a tool to vent my anger. When you are happy, you can pamper me, but when you are not happy, you will beat me. I have had enough of this kind of life, and only Ah Only iron can make me truly feel what love is!" Lily's heartless voice rang in my ears.
"Then I will grant you my wish and let you be a pair of wild mandarin ducks for the rest of your lives!" He stepped forward and waved the sword in his hand. He only heard a popping sound and hot liquid splashed on his face.
…
"Father, father, please, don't hit me, don't hit me!" The little child huddled in the corner, covered with scars, kneeling on the ground and praying to him.
"Don't call me father, I'm not your father, you bastard, bastard!" The title of father made him completely crazy. He stepped forward, slapped the child's face hard, and slapped his mouth. Li cursed: "Why don't you die? Why don't you die? Why are you still living?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please spare me, please spare me!" The child's sharp cries and begging for mercy were mixed together.
"Hahaha!" He laughed hysterically and used a lot of strength in his hands.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the young master has fainted!" The voice of the attendant rang in his ears, and he stopped. He would not let this bastard die. He wanted that bitch's child to live worse than death!
But now, he feels that his life is worse than death!
His consciousness slowly became chaotic, and Li Qian didn't know where he would go. He only knew that with this sad and pitiful cry, he might have reached the end, but he was not willing to die at the hands of a bastard. He was not willing to die at the hands of a bastard. willingly!
At this moment, in the Qiankun Hall of the imperial palace, Chu Yiqing, who had just settled down, was visiting the main hall under the leadership of Abao.
"Mom, that's my dad's study over there, and there's a small garden over there. Although it's not big, I haven't planted any flowers this year. My dad said, let mom plant whatever she likes!" Abao pulled her again. Chu Yiqing went to look at the small garden outside.
The garden is indeed not big, only about 100 square meters. The ground was all sorted out and replaced with soft new soil.[
"What does A Bao like to grow?" Chu Yiqing noticed Li Huang's good intentions and asked in a joking manner.
"It's best to grow some of what A Bao likes to eat, yes, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants and cauliflower! I also need to plant some green onions and leeks. The ones my mother grows are the most delicious!" A Bao counted on his fingers. stand up.
"Okay, just as A Bao said, we will plant them when mother asks Yingqian to send the seeds to the palace!" Chu Yiqing smiled, and finally couldn't help but stepped forward and pinched the soil, and said with a smile: "This Fertilizer has just been added to the soil, as long as there are seeds, it will be fine!"
Abao giggled, and pulled Chu Yiqing and said: "Mom, we have to go to greet Grandma Huang. Mother, don't be afraid. Grandma Lao Huang is very easy to coax. If you say more nice things, it will be done." !”
Chu Yiqing touched A Bao's little head and said, "I didn't expect that A Bao would grow up so quickly and have A Bao take care of my mother!"
Abao raised his little head and smiled, took Chu Yiqing's hand and said: "Come on, mother, let's go and greet Grandma Huang with a little blessing!"
Chu Yiqing nodded.
In the Ci'an Palace, the Queen Mother teased the little blessing with a smile, and then looked at Ah Bao, her face full of satisfaction.
"You come and live in the palace. The palace will be more lively, and it will save the Ai family from having to send someone to pass the news when they want to see A Bao. It will take most of an hour to read the full text of the Witch's Heart!" the Queen Mother said with a smile.
Chu Yiqing quickly stood up and saluted: "Thank you very much for your concern, the Queen Mother. It's just that A Bao and Blessing are still young. I'm afraid they can't abide by the rules of the palace, which makes the Queen Mother worry!"
The Queen Mother smiled and said: "A Bao often comes into the palace these days, and he abides by it very well. Now that you have come in, you can live in peace and contentment. If you are worried that you do not understand the rules in this palace, the Ai family and a few others The concubine has been so busy all day that her bones are aching, so I just want to tell you about the rules in this palace!"
Chu Yiqing smiled faintly, it seemed that the Queen Mother wanted her to learn the rules, but she was prepared in advance, so she said: "I would like to take it to accompany the Queen Mother, but Blessing is still young, and A Bao also wants to study, so I'm afraid I don’t have that much time!”
The Queen Mother glanced at the blessing in her arms. In fact, she knew Chu Yiqing's temper to some extent. Now was a sensitive period. She didn't want to get too tense with Chu Yiqing, so she said: "That's fine, anyway. The days are long and it won’t be too late to wait for the new emperor to ascend the throne!”
Chu Yiqing nodded, said some more words, and then left Ci'an Palace.
As soon as I left Ci'an Palace, I met the two concubines Situ Yu'er and Gong Yuying who had been selected into the palace by the five major families. As soon as they saw each other, they were indescribably affectionate, and they talked for a while.
Going to be a guest in Qiankun Palace, Chu Yiqing responded accordingly.
Not long after returning to the palace, Situ Yu'er and Gong Yuying came hand in hand. After entering the flower hall, the two of them sat down. Concubine Yu also smiled and said: "We met Concubine Chu before she entered the palace.
, but there were so many people watching, and we couldn’t talk. Later, Concubine Chu lived outside the palace to have her baby, and we couldn’t get out. Now we finally sit together and can talk to each other!"
Concubine Ying also smiled and said: "Yes, sister Yu'er has been talking to me before, saying that Concubine Chu is different from ordinary women like us. Even though she is just a concubine of the crown prince now, in the future the queen's position will definitely be
Concubine Chu, it’s yours!”
Chu Yiqing heard early in the morning that Concubine Yu and Concubine Ying had fallen out of favor a long time ago. In addition, they were not allowed to have any heirs. Now that the old emperor was about to abdicate, I am afraid that these two people were uneasy in their hearts, so when they saw her, they were like
It's like seeing a life-saving straw.
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Speaking of which, we have some connections. Now in this palace, we must take care of each other more!"
When Chu Yiqing said this, Concubine Yu and Concubine Ying immediately smiled away. Concubine Yu even said: "We have already said that Concubine Chu leads the five major families. How could she not care about us? Sister Ying, you
Look, your worries are unnecessary, right?"
Gong Yuying immediately smiled and said: "I have been worrying too much. Now the old emperor's health is getting worse day by day. We young concubines have neither power nor influence. Do we have any heirs to rely on? In the future..."
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Jade Concubine, there are many eyes and ears in this palace, so you'd better be careful what you say!" [
Concubine Yu quickly closed her mouth and smiled awkwardly.
The three of them were silent for a while, with no topic to talk about. At noon, seeing that every palace was about to have their meals, Concubine Yu and Concubine Ying took their leave.
As soon as they came out of Qiankun Palace, they met Concubine Rou. Concubine Rou smiled coldly, with sarcasm in her eyes: "You are starting to have a relationship so quickly, but I would like to advise you to look carefully before you get involved.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t get involved, you’ll end up hurting yourself!”
Concubine Ying was startled, and was about to step forward to argue with Concubine Rou, but Concubine Yu secretly winked at her, stepped forward and blessed her with a smile: "Sister Concubine Rou, isn't it true that there is no way, like us?"
If you don’t have an heir, you don’t know what will happen after the new emperor ascends the throne. Isn’t Sister Rou Fei worried?”
Concubine Rou's face couldn't help but tighten, and her smile was no longer so cheerful.
"So Sister Roufei, we fought before because we were fighting for favor. Now it doesn't matter whether we fight for favor or not. We are both the most pitiful women in the world. Let's not hurt each other!" Concubine Yu stepped forward and said proactively.
Easy to say.
Concubine Rou's face changed several times, and she finally said: "Since we have talked about this, I will tell you the truth. Now, people from all over Pingliang and Lucheng have signed a letter, asking the new emperor to confer Chu Yiqing as the title.
Queen, I heard that people in Chu Han are planning to go to the capital to petition in person. Think about it, Chu Yiqing's identity is already a cause for concern, and now he is openly inciting the people. When the time comes, the officials will be impeached. Even if the new emperor has the intention to protect his shortcomings, I'm afraid
It’s not easy to deal with either, so if I am you, please open your eyes and see clearly first before making any connections!”
When Gong Yuying heard this, he immediately asked: "But is it true? How is it possible?"
"If you don't believe it, just send a message to your mother-in-law's family to find out. Your mother-in-law's family is an imperial merchant and there are people from all over the country. It shouldn't be difficult to find out this information, right?" Concubine Rou snorted coldly and raised her head high.
, waving the handkerchief and said: "Now in this palace, no one can be trusted. I advise you not to waste your efforts. This is our fate!"
After Concubine Rou finished speaking, she walked away, but when she turned around the corner door, Concubine Rou stopped and looked depressed.
She laughs at others, but why doesn't she laugh at herself? She has been in the palace for more than ten years and left the palace. Do she really have to wait for the emperor for a hundred years to be sent to a temple to accompany the ancient Buddha with a green lantern?
Concubine Rou sighed quietly.
Here, Concubine Yu and Concubine Ying exchanged a look.
"Sister Yu'er, what should I do? If it's true..." Gong Yuying didn't dare to think about it.
"Don't worry, let's send the letter first and let the family inquire about it. Now we can only rely on Concubine Chu. If Concubine Chu falls, it will not be good for us!" Situ Yu'er whispered.
"Then should we inform Concubine Chu in advance?" Gong Yuying asked urgently.
"Don't worry, what if Concubine Rou is deliberately telling us lies to lure us in? We'd better find out more about it and be on the safe side!" Situ Yu'er said.
Gong Yuying nodded quickly.
The next day, the news that Li Qian died of an epidemic reached the palace. After hearing this, Li did not speak for a long time, but ordered a grand burial.
As soon as King Qian died, many ministers in the court knew that the general situation had been decided, and with Yang Xin's persuasion among them, the opposition to the new emperor's appointment of Chu Yiqing as his queen gradually became less loud.
On the third day, petitions from people were received from all over the country and reported to the court step by step. In particular, a memorial worth tens of thousands of words written by Bai Yuanzhen passed through the hands of Li Huang several times.
In Qiankun Palace, Li Huang walked into the palace excitedly, and first went up to kiss the sleeping blessing. His cold face made little blessing snort impatiently.
"Haha!" Li Huang was even more amused by the little blessing.
"What good things happened today? Are you so happy?" Chu Yiqing put down the book in his hand and turned his eyes and asked.
"Let me show you a memorial!" Li Huang placed the memorial in front of Chu Yiqing.
Chu Yiqing was not pretentious. He picked it up and only glanced at it for a few times before looking at Li Huang strangely: "This is a coupon for a hundred yuan increase. It says that the people of Chu Han will come to the capital to petition, but is it true?"
Li Huang nodded and motioned for her to continue looking down: "You will understand the content of the petition later!"
Chu Yiqing looked down again. The more he looked, the tighter his brows became. He couldn't help but whisper: "It's for me..."
"You didn't expect it, did you? I didn't expect it. I didn't expect the people to support you so much!" Li Huang burst out laughing, laughing twice. Then he was surprised to realize that Little Blessing was still sleeping and quickly lowered his voice.
"What was the reaction of the ministers in the imperial court?" Chu Yiqing was not as optimistic as Li Huang and asked in a low voice.
"The current response is still under control! But there is one more thing, Li Gan got the plague and died!" Li Huang raised his eyebrows slightly. The latest chapter of Dominate the Galaxy.
Chu Yiqing was startled: "Dead? How is that possible? With so many doctors in the imperial hospital, can't they even cure the plague?"
Li Huang smiled and said: "In this palace, even walking on flat ground can kill someone, let alone the plague! The chess pieces are useless, so naturally throw them away!"
Li Huang's words are cruel but true.
Chu Yiqing was silent for a long time, and could only say: "It's time for Li Gan to die!"
"I'm afraid I have to thank that Li Yan!" Li Huang's eyes were deep and he could see everything clearly.
Chu Yiqing whispered: "That child is so vicious at such a young age, I'm afraid I can't keep him!"
Li Huang nodded: "But now is not the time. When Li Gan died, my father was very sad and needs to be comforted now. My father had already decreed a grand burial for Li Gan and named Li Yan the crown prince!"
Chu Yiqing fell silent, carefully read Bai Yuanzeng's memorial again, and said, "What do you think of this memorial?"
Li Huang smiled and said: "Get off the donkey along the slope!"
Chu Yiqing sighed, "I'm afraid it's not that simple. Don't forget that your father has not abdicated yet. If he knows about this..."
Li Huang stepped forward and held her hand: "Don't worry, I have already thought of this. It will take seven days to get from Chu Han to the capital. Not everyone of those people has a carriage, so when they arrive, I have already ascended the throne and become the emperor. At that time, if I pretend to comply with public opinion and make you the queen, wouldn't it be logical?"
Chu Yiqing frowned slightly. She always felt that it was not that simple, but she still couldn't think of what the problem was.
"Okay, don't be upset. You should be happy. Look how much the people support you! If it were anyone else, I would really be afraid of losing my country!" Li Huang joked.
Chu Yiqing smiled faintly and read Bai Yuanzeng's memorial again, still feeling vaguely uneasy in his heart.
At this moment, in a palace at the end of the palace, there are two old princes who are suffering from "leprosy".
Abao took Sun Leisheng with him, and Sun Leisheng walked slowly over with a big food box in his hand.
"Your Majesty, join us!" The two guards quickly saluted.
"Your Highness is going to deliver food to Grandpa!" Abao ordered calmly.
The guard responded quickly and stepped forward to open the copper lock.
Po put his hands behind his back and walked into the palace gate with his little head held high.
In the courtyard of the palace, the two princes were basking in the sun. After being locked up for several months and suffering from "disease", Prince Yu's white and fat body has shrunk greatly, but his face He looks much more handsome.
"Bao, dear, are you here again?" When Prince Lu saw Ah Bao, he immediately dropped the toy in his hand and stepped forward with a smile.
"Grandpa, I brought you some food!" Abao turned around and took the food box from Sun Leisheng's hand, and brought it forward with a smile.
Prince Yu deliberately pretended not to see or hear.
Po opened the food box directly, and a burst of fragrance immediately hit his nostrils.
"Bao, dear, what are you going to eat today?" Prince Lu immediately came over.
"It's fermented eight-treasure duck and griddle-pot grandma's dish, as well as scallion pancakes and soup-filled steamed dumplings!" A Bao recited as he put the food on the table, took out the fire dumplings from his arms, and lit the griddle pot. .
After a while, the fragrance became even stronger, attracting Prince Yu's eyes to glance this way from time to time.
"What kind of rare thing is this?" Prince Lu was very interested in the dry pot.
"This is called a dry pot. You heat it slowly so that the dishes won't get cold easily. Especially my grandma's dish, which is made from dried radish and pickled vegetables. It absorbs the oil and becomes extra fragrant when grilled!" A Bao said. As he spoke, he used his small hands to lure Prince Yu with the scent.
Prince Yu swallowed secretly, but still maintained his posture.
Abao smiled and said: "The two old men will use it first, and Abao will take his leave!"
Prince Lu immediately got up reluctantly: "Leave now? Don't you want to play for a while? Don't you have any novel toys recently?"
Abao smiled and said: "Grandpa Lu, I brought all the fun toys to Grandpa Lu, there are no more!"
Prince Lu sighed, looked at his black fingers, and suddenly cursed: "What kind of imperial doctor, ghost doctor, a bunch of drunkards and ricebags, can't even cure a minor illness! Do you want to imprison me for the rest of my life?"
Abao quickly said: "My master said that the two grandfathers are almost cured of their illness. Haven't they been feeling numb these days? They will definitely be cured!"
Prince Lu sighed and said: "Boy, you are the only one who cares. We two old guys have been locked up here for half a year. There are fewer and fewer people coming to visit, so you are the only one who comes every ten days!"
Prince Lu glanced at Prince Yu again, who had been ignoring Ah Bao, and said, "Don't look at you, old Yu, for ignoring you, but I still look forward to your coming every time!"
A Bao bit his lip and said suddenly: "Grandpas, when you get better, how about A Bao taking you on a sightseeing tour? A Bao will be very filial to you!"
Lao Lutou nodded movedly, and was about to reach out his hand to silence A Bao's chubby face, but finally held back, waved his hand and said: "Okay, as long as you have the heart, we can still
I don’t know if I can survive until that day! Well, you can go back, it’s not a good place to stay any longer!”
Abao could only nod his head and leave with three turns.
After A Bao left, Prince Yu immediately picked up the chopsticks on the table and started eating eagerly, especially the dry pot grandma's dish. It was spicy and spicy in the mouth, and it was also very chewy.
of fragrance.
But Lao Lutou sat there in a daze.
"Lao Lutou, why don't you eat?" Lao Yutou glanced at him.
"I was thinking about what A Bao said. Although we don't have children, there are many princes in this palace. There are not many conscientious ones like A Bao. You said that we have been locked up here for half a year. At first, you said
Several people came to see us, but when they heard that we had the disease, they all ran away for fear that we would spread the disease, and now the only child left is A Bao!" Lao Lutou sighed.
Lao Yutou snorted. Although he didn't say anything, he was a little moved in his heart.
Suddenly, a ball of paper was thrown down from the roof. Prince Yu quickly raised his eyes and saw a dark figure leaving quickly.
"Who is it?" Prince Lu shouted loudly, and a guard came in immediately.
"Two princes, what's the matter?" the guard asked quickly.
"It's okay, you go down!" Prince Yu said coldly.
The guards quickly retreated.
"Old Yutou, there is obviously someone..." Prince Lu looked back and asked in confusion, and saw Prince Yu gestured to him, unfolded the note in his hand, his eyes were cold, "Look what's written on it
What is it!"
