The moment she saw Mrs. Wang, Queen Mother Yu's eyes flashed with disbelief and surprise. Soon, her face turned livid.
Yu Guang was the cousin of Empress Dowager Yu, and the concubine Yu Shu who was buried was the sister of Yu Guangzheng's mother.
Due to the death of Concubine Yu Shu, Yu Guangzheng was resentful and had already separated from the Empress Dowager Yu. In the past few years, he had been under house arrest.
The emperor and the empress took action against the Yu family, and Yu Guangzheng willingly became the sharp knife in the empress' palm. If you want to make a big tree fall, nothing can be done faster than a tree that gets eaten from the inside.
Yu Guangzheng has also become a person that Queen Mother Yu is happy with. However, she has no time or energy to do anything to him at the moment.
Empress Dowager Yu never expected that when she summoned the Zhou family, it would be the Wang family who came.
what does that mean?
How could Empress Dowager Yu, who had been floating in the palace for decades, not understand?
Either Yu Guangde was no longer able to control the Yu family, and was forced by the Yu family to nod to Wang's entry into the palace. Or Yu Guangde took the initiative to nod...
Are the Yu family trying to survive by cutting off their wrists?!
Queen Mother Yu clenched her teeth hard, and there was a hint of fishy sweetness in her mouth.
The eyes that were staring at the Wang family were burning with burning anger, as if they could spit out flames at any time and burn the Wang family in front of them to ashes.
Mrs. Wang had already received Yu Guangzheng's advice. Although she was panicking in her heart, she was still calm on her face. She bowed first and said, "I have seen the Queen Mother."
.Yu Guangzheng is now the third-rank minister of the Ministry of Justice, and Wang has become a serious imperial wife.
"Why didn't Mrs. Zhou come?" Empress Dowager Yu asked sternly with a livid face.
Mrs. Wang lowered her head and explained softly: "My brother and sister were so frightened a few days ago that they fell ill and couldn't stay. That's why I was asked to come."
Before Empress Dowager Yu could ask further questions, Wang sighed again: "The Empress Dowager inquired, but I dare not hide even a word. I heard that a few days ago, the patriarch sent several stewards to Yangzhou to run the business, and an assassin who came from nowhere actually killed
These stewards were all killed. The heads were well prepared, put in wooden boxes and sent back to the Yu family."
"Not to mention my younger siblings, even the clan leader was frightened and fainted. He has been lying on the bed these days. The clan members went to visit him, but the clan leader didn't even say a word."
The flames in Queen Mother Yu's eyes almost turned into reality.
Wang raised her head and lowered it again.
Is power more important or life?
Without power, one can only linger and pray for mercy. Without life, there is nothing.
Yu Guangde has obviously figured it out and made a choice.
The Queen Mother Yu, who was setting the sun on the west mountain, was no longer the towering tree that sheltered the Yu family, but would only drag the Yu family into a situation that was beyond redemption. In order to save his own life, Yu Guangde could no longer take care of the Queen Mother Yu.
Queen Mother Yu's body suddenly shook.
Zhi Lan was shocked and rushed over. But she was already a step too late.
Queen Mother Yu's vision went dark and she fell heavily.
…
During these days, Zhao Yuanshi and other imperial doctors took turns to be on duty in Fulin Palace. Empress Dowager Yu suddenly fell into a coma, and before it was time to drink tea, Zhao Yuanshi and two other imperial doctors came over in a hurry.
After the Zhao Yuan envoy checked his pulse, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
There was no need for him to do anything. Empress Dowager Yu was completely pissed off this time.
Soon, Xie Mingxi, Xiao Yuhan and others also came after hearing the news. A group of children gathered around the bed. Sheng Hong, who was handling political affairs in the Yiqing Hall, also came quickly, acting like a filial son.
Empress Dowager Yu remained in coma for another two days.
Yu Wan and Yu Yan waited cautiously beside the bed. However, no one paid any attention to the two of them.
Princess Changping and her consort led Gu Shujin back to the capital at this time. The carriage entered the palace immediately without stopping at the princess's residence.
Despite the estrangement, mother and daughter still have a deep affection. Princess Changping was so anxious all the way that she didn't care about her manners and almost trotted all the way after entering the palace.
Gu Qing's right leg was slightly lame, and he felt a little embarrassed when he walked quickly. Gu Shujin had no choice but to support her father and walk quickly together.
Princess Changping stopped outside the familiar palace and raised her head to read the plaque.
It was nearly noon, and the sun was dazzling. The three words Fulin Palace shone with a strange luster under the sunlight.
Princess Changping's heart throbbed and her nose was sore.
Empress Dowager Yu has lived in Jiaofang Palace for decades. Every plant, tree, brick and tile here belongs to her. Today, the palace has not changed, but the plaque has been changed to Fulin Palace. Such humiliation makes Yu feel arrogant.
How could the Queen Mother swallow it?
Gu Qing's somewhat rapid breathing sounded in his ears: "Princess, be careful what you say and do."
Princess Changping turned her head and looked at her husband who couldn't hide his sorrow. Tears almost burst out of her eyes. Fortunately, she quickly swallowed back her tears and said softly: "Don't worry, I know the severity and won't talk nonsense."
In just over half a month, the emperor and empress used thunderous tactics, and the palace fell into the hands of the empress. No matter whether Empress Dowager Yu was willing or not, she was unable to recover.
As the eldest princess, she will also face an embarrassing situation.
Assess the situation and when it is time to bow your head, you can only bow your head.
…
Princess Changping calmed down a little and stepped into Fulin Palace.
Princess Changping was the legitimate daughter of Empress Dowager Yu and the eldest princess of the Qi Dynasty. Sheng Hong and Xie Mingxi showed their dignity to Princess Changping and welcomed her out in person.
"Sister Huang," Sheng Hong said with a look of shame on his face, "I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of my mother."
Xie Mingxi also showed some self-blame: "The emperor is busy with government affairs, and all the care of his mother has been entrusted to me. It was because of my carelessness that I failed to take good care of my mother. If you want to blame the emperor, just blame me!"
The Empress's acting skills are superb and her scene skills are excellent.
What else can Princess Changping say?
He had no choice but to cheer up and sighed to Sheng Hong and Xie Mingxi: "You have done your best. My mother is old and it is inevitable to get sick. How can I blame you?"
After a pause, he then said: "I will stay in Jiaofang today... stay in Fulin Palace and stay with my mother. When my mother's illness improves, I will leave the palace and return home."
Xie Mingxi pretended not to have heard Princess Changping's slip of the tongue and responded immediately.
Princess Changping calmed down, went to the dormitory, and sat down by the bed. Her eyes fell on Queen Mother Yu's face, and she felt sad again.
What a glorious sight my mother always looked like.
At this time, she was lying weakly on the bed, her expression was gloomy, and her white hair was a little messy. She looked like any seriously ill old woman.
Maybe it's because of the rapport between mother and daughter.
Queen Mother Yu woke up unexpectedly, and when she opened her eyes, she saw the eyes of Princess Changping with tears in her eyes.
"Mother," Princess Changping shed tears and choked with sobs: "My daughter is unfilial and came back late."
Queen Mother Yu's eyes flashed with water, she opened her mouth with difficulty, and shouted Changping.
When Empress Dowager Li fell ill due to qi, Empress Dowager Yu secretly ordered envoy Zhao to tamper with the soup, making Empress Dowager Li sick and unable to speak.
Empress Dowager Yu was no better than Empress Dowager Li back then. She spoke intermittently and with great difficulty.
The reincarnation of heaven brings unhappy retribution. (To be continued)
