Chapter 151
Chapter 151
The emperor couldn't guess what the empress dowager was thinking, and he was not sure if the empress dowager knew about it, but after he calmed down and thought about it carefully, he realized that it would be good to hand over the triplets to the empress dowager to raise them, at least for a while. Hold on to the Empress Dowager.
Lest the empress dowager always imply overtly or secretly that he prefers to see Horqin, if resentment arises because of this, it would be bad if the fish dies and the net is broken in the end.
However, the emperor still felt a little uncomfortable about this matter, and citing government affairs as an excuse, he didn't call anyone to sleep with him for several days, and he didn't enter the harem.
The emperor did not move, but the queen did.
After leaving the Yonghe Palace, the empress began to investigate the matter. Compared with Yun Guo's suspicion of the concubine Shi, the empress felt that the concubine Shi was a shield. Gao, she didn't believe that a little concubine from a poor family background in the Eight Banners of the Han Army who had fallen out of favor for several years could buy her off.
It is said that Concubine Yi's family background is low, and that is only compared with other concubines in the harem. It would be better if Concubine Yi's family background is better than that of the servants below. The imperial guards are also considered to be a family with a name and surname in the coat.
With such a family background, plus Concubine Yi's favor and children, even if concubine Shi really bought the little eunuch out of jealousy and wanted to murder the triplets, the little eunuch could tell Concubine Yi to sell Concubine Shi. The benefits obtained are definitely more than the murder of the triplets by following the concubine Shi's words.
As for the concubine's natal family outside Shi's palace, it is indeed possible to hold the life of the little eunuch's family, but it is not so easy to succeed, because there are too many people staring at it, and everyone can Not a fool.
Still the same sentence, even if such a thing really happened, it would be more beneficial for the little eunuch to sell the concubine Shi Shi than to obey.
So even if concubine Shi Shi really participated, the queen felt that there must be someone else behind her!
Who is it?
The Queen's first suspect was the Hesheli family, followed by Concubine Rong and Concubine Hui who had sons, but for the Empress Dowager and Concubine Tong, the ranking of suspects was very low.
In fact, it's not surprising, how can one not see the temperament of the Empress Dowager and Concubine Tong after being together for more than ten years with the intelligence of the empress.
The Empress Dowager wanted to restore Horqin's glory in the harem, but at most she would just stand by and watch other people in the harem killing each other, and she would never end by herself.As for Concubine Tong, although she has a lot of selfish ideas, she can generally talk about Concubine Tong.
It is the one who loves the emperor, and a child who loves the emperor will not murder even if he feels uncomfortable or unhappy.
But things change with the situation, it was the former Empress Dowager and Concubine Tong, but now the queen can't guarantee it, so she is also on the list of suspects.
The young eunuch was interrogated first, and the empress used a two-pronged approach. On the one hand, the Department of Punishment tortured him, and on the other hand, he was asked to check his family background. If there were family members outside the palace, they would send someone to check the situation.
This little eunuch was stubborn, the Department of Punishment punished him and didn't make him change his mind, he still insisted that the concubine Shi Shi bought him.As for the little eunuch's family members, they were nowhere to be found outside the palace. According to him, they were all dead.
It seemed that the murderer was the concubine Shi Shi, but the queen didn't believe it!
The queen sent someone to check the young eunuch's interpersonal relationship, and found that he had good friends with a young eunuch from Jingren Palace and a young eunuch from Zhongcui Palace.
Immediately, the queen ordered the two of them to be summoned. The first question did not give any meaningful answers, but the second question both complained of injustice. They were dragged to the Department of Punishment and tortured, but they got different answers.
According to the account of the eunuch of Jingren Palace, he was ordered by Aunt Lichun of Jingren Palace to give the little eunuch a small paper bag. He didn't know what was in the paper bag.
This sounds a bit like the truth, but the problem is that Li Chun died of illness a few days ago, and the eunuchs of Jingren Palace should know about it, so it is true, or the eunuchs of Jingren Palace can't help but see that Li Chun has already died of illness. The empress is not sure about who confronted Li Chun with him.
It's just that after finding out this step, the queen knew that she had to stop, at least before the emperor made up her mind to investigate thoroughly, she had to stop.
reason?
It's very simple, because everyone in the palace knows that Lichun is the nail of the Hesheli family, and she was the one who sent Yipinjue Chan to the dragon bed.
The Hesheli family is very suspicious of this matter, but it cannot be ruled out that someone took advantage of this and made a fuss about Lichun's death a few days ago.
Of course, when it comes to the crown prince, as long as the emperor doesn't open his mouth to investigate thoroughly, the queen can only stop in order not to get burned.
The queen went to Qianqing Palace and reported the matter to the emperor, but the emperor did not let the queen continue the investigation, but said that he would take over the investigation.
But the queen knew in her heart that if the emperor investigates this matter by himself, it might end up being nothing.
Can't help but his eyes darken slightly, the emperor is too partial to the crown prince and the Hesheli family!
Looks like she'll have to speed up.
Not
Of course, I don't know how long her body can last.
This time, there is no doubt that the queen guessed wrong. The emperor's first reaction was not the crown prince, but his empress Xiaokangzhang. The role played in the play, the emperor has not yet found out.
Did Lichun discover this by accident, or did she actually make the purse for Khan Ama back then, and someone misled her.
Or the purse wasn't made by me at all, but someone forged it to frame the Tong family... There are many possibilities, but the emperor has not found out the truth.
With such a slight possibility, the emperor dare not gamble.
Even if he now regained Ryukyu apart from the San Francisco, his throne would still be unstable if that matter was revealed again.
Because no matter from which aspect, Prince Yu Fuquan was actually more qualified to be emperor than him. Concubine Ningxi was full of people and she was on the Zhengbai Banner of the Three Banners, while he was only the Zhenglan Banner of the Han Army back then. .
If it wasn't for the fact that the Empress Dowager hated the Empress Xiaoxian so much that she hated Wu and Wu to the other Dong E clans, and that the birth mothers of his younger brothers had worse family backgrounds than him, according to the previous rules of the Qing Dynasty that valued family status, this would have been the case. It is not his turn to sit on the throne.
But since he sat on it, the emperor never thought about letting it out.
That must not be noticed by anyone.
Therefore, the emperor always pays attention to the queen's expression and small movements. From this look, the emperor knows that the queen's thinking is wrong, but although it is not partial to the crown prince, the emperor did not correct it. Kai guessed that.
After thinking about it for a while, the emperor asked someone to go to the Yonghe Palace to pass the oral order, and he agreed to hand over the triplets to the empress dowager to raise them.
In this way, in the eyes of outsiders, this is his compensation to Concubine Yi. This matter has been suppressed by him, and it will soon be left alone. No one will investigate this matter further.
??
Yun Guo has actually been a little uneasy these past few days. Although rationally speaking, no matter how you analyze it, I am [-]% sure that the emperor will agree. However, the reason why people are human is because sometimes people are emotional animals, and they will get carried away by emotions. , do something irrational.The emperor is also a human being, and he has done this kind of thing in his previous life, such as abolishing the prince.
Furthermore, Yunguo actually lied to the emperor about this matter, it was she who wanted to hand over the triplets to the empress dowager to raise them, not the empress dowager who took the initiative to bring this up.In case, in case the emperor and the empress dowager talk about this matter, the emperor will be afraid.
I really hate her, I'm afraid Sixth Brother will be taken away if he can't keep it.
But Yunguo didn't dare to take the triplets directly to the Ningshou Palace and hand them over to the Empress Dowager to raise them, otherwise she would be disgusted by the emperor, unlike now Yunguo only needs to be a little bit lower in the attached primary school and wait for the emperor to dissipate. passed.
Yun Guo was relieved after finally waiting for the emperor's oral order today.
Although the weather was not very good, but it was not windy, rainy or snowy, Yunguo was afraid that it would change if it was too late, so he quickly ordered the servants to pack up the triplets' clothes and toys, and wrapped the triplets into three big rice dumplings , A group of people went to Ningshou Palace mightily.
Someone had already reported that when Yunguo arrived, the Empress Dowager was sitting on the kang looking forward to see through, seeing Yunguo coming, she hurriedly excused herself.
Then impatiently took a swaddling baby from the nanny, took off the veil to block the wind, lowered his head and fixed his eyes, a cute little face of jade white was imprinted in his eyes, and two blushes appeared on the little face, really sleeping soundly.
"Is this the younger one?" The Empress Dowager asked without raising her head.
The sixth elder brother who came over to be next to the empress dowager hurriedly said: "Mama Huang, this is the eighth younger brother." Then he pointed to the two infants who were being held by the nanny beside him, "This is the ninth younger brother, this is the eighth younger brother." Tenth brother."
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager looked up at Brother Jiu and Brother Ten who were being held by the nanny, and wondered, "Can you recognize Erlu?" Why did she see that the three children were almost the same in appearance.
"The eighth brother likes to wear royal blue clothes the most, the ninth brother likes to wear water blue clothes the most, and the tenth brother likes to wear dark blue clothes the most, I can recognize them at a glance." Sixth elder brother looked up triumphantly Said.
The Empress Dowager immediately understood that this was because Concubine Yi deliberately made the triplets wear clothes of different colors in order to prevent people from being unrecognizable.
But the empress dowager didn't expose it, she smiled and said to the sixth elder brother: "Elu is so powerful, the emperor mama can't recognize it."
"Emperor Mama will recognize her younger brothers when she sees them more often." The sixth elder brother didn't know that the triplets would be left in Ningshou Palace to be raised by the empress dowager.
It wasn't until the afternoon when he left Ningshou Palace and was hugged by Er Nie and sat on the sedan chair that Sixth Brother asked, "Er Nie, won't the Eighth Brothers go back with us?"
A look of reluctance appeared in Yunguo's eyes, but she soon became firm, hugged the sixth elder brother and said, "Your Mama Mama is too lonely in Ningshou Palace alone, eighth brother and the others will accompany the emperor in Ningshou Palace." Mama."
Brother Six nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Three years old is not too young to be in the palace. Although Brother Six doesn't understand many things, he also knows not to ask questions, make trouble, or do anything.
