The identities of Master Jiao and Feng Sijin are not simple. Not even the Empress Dowager can stand up to them, let alone the small imperial army.
Mr. Jiao and Feng Sijin had made up their minds that they must see the Holy One today. No matter what the Imperial Army said, they refused to leave. The Imperial Army did not dare to attack the two of them because of their status.
I had no choice but to leave someone to keep an eye on Mr. Jiao and Feng Sijin, and then send someone to ask the Empress Dowager for instructions on how to deal with it.
The Empress Dowager is not an ignorant woman, but she has been locked up in the harem for most of her life, and her knowledge is limited. In addition, she is also old. When encountering such a big thing, she doesn't know how to deal with it.
"These old stubborns, the emperor has not been in the capital for most of the year, but they still do things as usual. It has only been ten days since the emperor came back, why do they have to see the emperor?" If it weren't for the inconvenience of finding medicine outside the palace, it would be easy for others to find out the clues. The Queen Mother
They all wanted to take Qin Jiyan to the temple and escape these three months in the name of praying for blessings.
Anyway, it's not like the emperor has never done such a thing before.
"Your Majesty, Master Jiao and Master Feng are outside. They are determined not to leave. Please give me permission." Master Jiao and Feng Sijin have high positions of authority. The imperial army really did not dare to offend them. Seeing that the Empress Dowager was still refusing to give up.
The answer has to be repeated.
"This matter, this matter..." The Empress Dowager was confused for a while. She didn't know how to make a decision. After hesitating for a long time, she finally closed her eyes and said: "Forget it, go and invite Mr. Jiao into the palace. As for Mr. Feng, let's just say that the emperor is still here.
I don’t have time to see him.”
When things got to this point, she needed someone to help her cover the Lord's serious illness. Jiao Shoufu was the chief minister appointed by the Emperor and should be trustworthy.
As for the Feng family?
Feng Yuqian mentioned before leaving that the Feng family must not be trusted because the Feng family and Jing Yan had never kept secret. The Feng family knew that the emperor's life was at stake, and Jing Yan knew about it, and Jing Yan... I don't know if something happened to the emperor.
, do something.
Mr. Jiao felt a little relieved when the Empress Dowager finally allowed him to see the Holy Emperor. However, he was also afraid of any accidents. Before entering, he reminded Feng Sijin that if he did not come out of the palace before dawn tomorrow, he would lead troops to the palace to rescue him.
people.
The person who needs to be saved is naturally not Mr. Jiao.
Feng Sijin nodded and did not stay outside the palace.
Anyway, there will be news tomorrow morning.
I have been waiting for more than ten days, so waiting for one more day is nothing.
Master Jiao calmly followed the imperial army into the palace, but God knows how panicked he was at this moment.
He had no idea what kind of medicine the Empress Dowager was selling in her gourd. He had no idea whether he would be able to see the Emperor when he entered the palace this time, and he didn't know whether it would be bad or good.
As soon as Mr. Jiao saw the Empress Dowager, he knew that his visit to the palace was really not a good thing!
Since the Empress Dowager summoned Mr. Jiao to the palace, she was planning to ask Mr. Jiao to help her share the burden. As soon as Mr. Jiao entered the palace, the Empress Dowager told Mr. Jiao everything that had happened, without hiding anything.
Lord Jiao felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and staggered back a few steps, "The emperor's fate is at stake, and the whereabouts of the prince are unknown? Feng, how did the Feng family protect the emperor? How did they protect the prince?" This is God's death.
Da Qin?
Finally, except for the powerful enemy, the Holy Emperor and the Crown Prince both got into trouble!
"The Ai family is also very angry, but now is not the time to reprimand the Feng family. The top priority is to save the life of the Holy Emperor and prevent the secret of the Holy Emperor's serious illness from leaking out." If the news leaks out, there may be chaos outside.
If nothing else, Northern Qi would not negotiate peace easily.
"Three months? How could you hide it for such a long time!" Mr. Jiao looked embarrassed.
Their emperor often went out. If he had not returned to the capital in the first place, the courtiers would be worried and would not think much about it. But now that he was in the palace, how could they explain the emperor's absence?
"Can you move the Holy One out of the palace and say that the Holy One has gone up to pray for blessings?" Mr. Jiao gave the suggestion, but the Medicine King Valley Master said that it is not suitable for Qin Jiyan to move now. In addition, he will need a lot of precious medicinal herbs to support him. If he leaves the palace,
, using large quantities of medicine will definitely arouse suspicion?
"Use a substitute, I remember the Holy One has a substitute. Use the substitute directly to leave the palace, and the emperor will stay in the palace to rest." Mr. Jiao could come up with this reason, and he must be grateful to Qin Jiyan for finding various reasons to leave the city.
However, no matter how good the method is, it won’t work if no one cooperates.
"The Ai family can't find where the Holy Spirit's substitute is. Moreover, the Holy Spirit has used a substitute once before. Now he is still using this trick. What if someone exposes him?" The Empress Dowager has also thought about this method, but she is afraid that the matter will be exposed.
Come out, the consequences will be disastrous.
"What should I do if I can't stand in as a substitute? Or... just say that the Holy One was prompted by the late emperor's dream to fast and meditate?" People in the world always have an inexplicable fear of the power of ghosts and gods, and there is no way to verify it.
"This is a good reason, but now ten days have passed, isn't it too late?" The Queen Mother was annoyed that she had not thought of this reason at the time, and now it is too late.
"Besides these methods, I have no other options for the moment." Mr. Jiao made a bitter look on his face and shook his head.
The Empress Dowager was forced by the courtiers to have no choice but to see Master Jiao wanting to give up the business, so she hurriedly said: "Master Jiao, you have to find a way to do this. No matter what, you must pass this hurdle. Three months.
, as long as you hide it for three months, then there is no need to hide it no matter what happens after three months."
In three months, if Tang Wanjin didn't find anyone, Qin Jiyan would definitely die, and they would have no need to hide it then.
"This...this...please think about it, Rong Chen, the Queen Mother, please think about it, Rong Chen." In order to calm down, Mr. Jiao kept circling in the hall, like a donkey, he didn't know
Tired, I don’t know how tired I am, from noon to dark, I don’t stop.
The Empress Dowager wanted to speak several times, but finally endured it.
What if, what if Mr. Jiao happened to think of a way, but was suddenly interrupted by her, wouldn't it be a mess?
"Yes!" Finally, after it was dark, Mr. Jiao stopped, "The Empress Dowager, the Holy Master's handwriting, I will find a way to imitate the Holy Master's handwriting for approval. As for the reason why the Holy Master did not see everyone, I... I
Tomorrow we will tell the public that the Empress Dowager persuaded His Majesty to establish a queen, but His Majesty refused. The Empress Dowager and your Majesty are in a stalemate with her. Your Majesty is filial and spent ten days unable to persuade you, so I had to agree to establish a Queen, but you have to do so.
Fast and meditate for three months without seeing anyone in order to remember the prince’s birth mother.”
"Establishing a queen? This, this is not possible... The Holy Emperor would not want to establish a queen. It is okay to remember the prince's late mother, but it is absolutely not possible to establish a queen." The Empress Dowager refused without thinking.
Although she has stopped taking care of things since Qin Jiyan ascended the throne, the Empress Dowager also knows a little about the affairs between him and Gu Qiancheng.
"The Empress Dowager, if you can't do it, you have to do it. The emperor is not young anymore, and he only has one heir, the prince. All the ministers in the court do not want the emperor to have a queen as soon as possible and have many princes. Moreover, the saint has said that he will start a family and establish a career, and the emperor has already
After ascending the throne, it is inevitable to establish a queen. If the courtiers can wait for the emperor for one or two years, they will never allow the emperor to remain without a queen." Mr. Jiao admitted that he had his own selfish motives for proposing this method, but he did do it for the emperor.
good.
Gu Qiancheng made it clear that she was dead. The emperor had to guard her for one year. Two years was the limit that the courtiers could tolerate. If the emperor guarded her for the rest of his life, even ordinary people, let alone the ministers of the court, would not be able to accept it.
They cannot accept it, indulge in the affair between their children, and become emperor for a man whose woman will never establish a wife.
The emperor's oath to be a queen must be fulfilled. Instead of quarreling with the emperor in the future to persuade the emperor to establish a queen, it is better to take this opportunity to finalize the matter!
