Chapter 227 Pretending to be sick! Hurt each other!
After learning about the Queen Mother's illness, Wen Xiaotu rushed to Haiyan Palace.
It turned out that the Dog Emperor actually looked leisurely and contented!
Wen Xiaotu wondered for a moment whether the people below had given her the wrong news!
"Your Majesty, I heard that the Queen Mother is ill, do you know whether it is true or not?" Wen Xiaotu stepped forward and bowed.
The emperor raised his hand to help her up, and then said calmly: "Fake."
Wen Xiaotu breathed a sigh of relief, and then felt that something was even more wrong! How dare this slave to deceive her, a noble concubine?!
There was a sneer on Ming Zhao's lips: "The queen is pretending to be sick!"
Wen Xiaotu's eyes widened, and she stumbled and said: "The Queen Mother, she - she is pretending to be sick?!"
Ming Zhao said "hmm" and said, "I have spies in the Yinian Palace."
Wen Xiaotu: ...You even have to monitor your own mother, you pervert!
Wen Xiaotu slandered the emperor fiercely, and couldn't help but start to worry, "Even if the Queen Mother is not really ill, she has declared to the public that she is bedridden. If the Emperor does not return to the palace immediately, I am afraid that others will criticize the Emperor for being unfilial."
Yes, this can be said to be the biggest murder weapon in the hands of the Queen Mother. This dynasty governs the world with filial piety. If the Queen Mother is ill, the emperor should go to take care of the illness, and even taste the decoction himself to set an example.
Ming Zhao snorted coldly: "Yes, the Queen Mother just wants to use this to force me to submit!"
Wen Xiaotu sighed silently, "Perhaps the Queen Mother just wanted to pretend to be sick to make the Emperor feel distressed." - It was not necessarily a threat.
Although the mother and son, the Queen Mother and the Emperor, have always been secretly competing with each other, the Emperor has always cared about his mother, and the Queen Mother also cares deeply about her son, so she always wants the Emperor to have more children.
Ming Zhao's expression did not soften at all, "No matter what the Queen Mother thinks, there is no way I will surrender."
Wen Xiaotu couldn't help but ask: "But if the emperor doesn't return to the palace, I'm afraid he will attract criticism." - And as the highest-ranking concubine in the Sixth Palace, she is also obliged to attend to the Queen Mother's illness. If she doesn't,
Go, if she comes with you, you will be called "unfilial".
Ming Zhao chuckled: "Don't worry, I already have a plan to deal with it!"
Wen Xiaotu was puzzled: "How does the emperor plan to respond?" - Is there any way to counteract the Queen Mother's move? The name of "unfilial piety" is too heavy in this era, and Wen Xiaotu doesn't want to bear it at all.
Ming Zhao said lightly: "I'm sick."
Wen Xiaotu:???
Ming Zhao looked at that silly face and couldn't help but laugh, "From today on, when I am sick, Atu will stay in Haiyan Palace to take care of me."
Wen Xiaotu suddenly realized, "That's it! I understand!"
What a “sick” person!
The Queen Mother can pretend to be sick, but can’t the Emperor?!
Come on, let’s hurt each other!
Moreover, the emperor pretended to be ill, so she could use the excuse of "attending to the emperor's illness" and no longer had to return to the palace to attend to the illness of the Queen Mother!
What a strong reason!
Wen Xiaotu suddenly thought of something inappropriate in this, "But the Queen Mother probably won't believe it. Besides, what about the government affairs?" - If the emperor has to deal with government affairs "while dragging his body", the Queen Mother will naturally think that the emperor is
Pretending to be sick, but abandoning government affairs - given the emperor's temperament, he is really not such a coward.
Ming Zhao chuckled, "I have just drafted the imperial edict, sent it to the capital, ordered King Sheng to be regent, and have an overview of all important matters!"
Wen Xiaotu's eyes widened and he left the government affairs to his younger brother?!
It seems that the emperor did this before when he went to war, and King Sheng seemed to take care of it very well.
Sheng Wang’s business capabilities should be no problem!
However, now, the Queen Mother may be anxious. What the Queen Mother fears most is the loss of imperial power! The emperor's only son Jingjun is still young, and King Sheng is already an adult. With such a capable uncle regent, the Queen Mother is only worried about sleeping and eating.
Uneasy!
The emperor's move is really damaging!
In the Yi Nian Palace, the Queen Mother was lying on the couch with a rosy complexion. She said angrily: "Let the concubines retreat, the Ai family does not need these useless things to serve!"
Aunt Bai Tan had no choice but to withdraw from the inner hall and tell the three principals, Concubine De, Concubine Xian and Concubine Lu, who came to attend the meeting. However, Aunt Bai Tan told her very tactfully: "The Queen Mother said that there is no need for you ladies to come to attend to the illness."
The three of them looked at each other, and Xin Ruozhi immediately guessed that the Queen Mother was probably pretending to be ill. After all, she was fine when she came to pay her respects yesterday... The Queen Mother wanted the Emperor to return to the palace.
Xin Ruozhi said: "I understand what the Queen Mother means. I will go back to copy scriptures and pray for the Queen Mother."
As soon as the three principals left the Yi Nian Palace, the eunuch in charge, Zhu Sichang, ran in in a panic and shouted: "The Queen Mother, it's not good! The emperor is ill!"
After hearing this, the Queen Mother looked tense at first, and then snorted, "The Emperor has a strong body since he was a child. He has not even coughed all year round. How could he become ill by such a coincidence?"
Zhu Sichang knelt on the ground, looking flustered: "I'm afraid it's true this time. The emperor has already sent an order to Prince Sheng to supervise the country!"
As soon as these words came out, the Queen Mother suddenly changed her color, "What?!" Let King Sheng supervise the country again?! How can this be possible?!
Aunt Baitan took the opportunity and sighed: "My dear, the emperor has always been diligent in his administration. If he is really unable to handle government affairs, why would he ask Prince Sheng to supervise the country?"
The Queen Mother looked hesitant, "But the emperor's body and bones shouldn't be..."
Aunt Bai Tan sighed, "As you know, the Queen Mother, the Emperor is young and energetic, I'm afraid... he may be hurt by his anger."
The Queen Mother showed resentment, "Is he angry? It's the Ai family who should be angry!"
Although she was so angry, the Queen Mother couldn't sit still. "Immediately send someone to the Summer Palace to have a look! Nothing can happen to the Emperor!"
And the people sent by the Queen Mother were naturally from the Emperor.
The next day, the news the Queen Mother received was, of course, that "the Emperor was so angry that he suddenly fell seriously ill."
The Queen Mother was completely panicked, and immediately stopped pretending to be sick, and directly asked her confidant, Grandma Baitan, to go to the Summer Palace to deliver the message: "Tell the emperor that the Ai family has agreed to him! He can make whoever he wants to be the queen! He
If you don’t want to be drafted, don’t draft! I hope he gets better, and Aijia will rely on him for everything!”
Then he quickly told Zhu Sichang: "Hurry up and prepare a car and a guard of honor for the Ai family, who are going to the Summer Palace!"
Haiyan Palace had only been around for two days, but the situation suddenly made a breakthrough.
Wen Xiaotu looked at His Majesty the Emperor, who was strong and strong, and then at Aunt Bai Tan. He never expected that even the Queen Mother's confidants were the Emperor's people.
Aunt Baitan showed an unbearable look: "The Queen Mother has agreed to all the emperor's requests, and please ask the Emperor to recover from his illness and return to the palace as soon as possible. Otherwise, the Queen Mother may have to come to the palace."
Ming Zhao's expression remained as calm as a mountain, "I understand. You can go back and comfort your mother. In two days, I will call the Taiyuan Hospital to send word that I have improved."
Aunt Baitan breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, I understand."
In this cold war between mother and son, the one who is soft-hearted loses everything in the end.
Wen Xiaotu sighed and suddenly felt that the Queen Mother was quite pitiful.
