Nanny Zeng agreed with a smile, "That's right, Princess Wang is a good and interesting girl, even old slaves like her very much."
Wen Rongjun pretended to be shy and said: "If the queen mother and mother Zeng continue to boast, I'm afraid I'm going to grow a tail."
The two old men were taken aback for a moment, but after realizing it, they couldn't help laughing.
The Empress Dowager touched her head and smiled from ear to ear.
After a while, the laughter stopped, and she said with deep meaning: "There is no need for a tail, but I hope your stomach will have good news as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Wen Rong was a little embarrassed.
She and Gu Linchao haven't taken that step yet, how can she get pregnant
But in front of the elders, she still showed a shy look appropriately, and did not answer her words.
The Empress Dowager was even happier when she saw it.
Yung is a good boy, even if the two of them haven't consummated their marriage yet, it doesn't affect anything.
If she hadn't been worried that her body wouldn't last long enough to see the birth of Chao'er's heir with her own eyes, she wouldn't be in such a hurry, let alone be so troubled.
After Nanny Zeng served the tea, the Empress Dowager took Wen Rongyong's hand and sat down on the soft couch by the window.
"What do you think of Chao'er?" She asked suddenly.
Wen Rongyong was taken aback for a moment, but said without thinking: "My lord is a very good person."
The wrinkles on the Empress Dowager's face deepened, and she said meaningfully: "What's a good way?"
Wen Yujun pointed out the advantages of Gu Linchao with his fingers, "The prince cares about the country and the great cause of the people, he is just and selfless, his character is pure and innocent, and he is also very good to the soldiers under him. Although he is a child of the royal family, he does not have those bad habits of dudes. He is very frugal and doesn't like to waste extravagance. He looks cold, but in fact he has a kind and warm heart. He treats me very well and can pamper my petty temper... "
Having said that, Wen Rong was stunned for a while.
Gu Linchao has so many advantages.
Unknowingly, she remembered his good points in her heart, that's why she opened her mouth to come.
The Empress Dowager laughed all over her face when she heard it, "It turns out that Chao'er is in Yung's heart, so it's so good."
Wen Rongyong came back to her senses, blushed a little shyly, but still nodded and said: "My lord, he is indeed very good." So good that she was fascinated by him without knowing it.
"It seems that Yung likes Chao'er very much." The Empress Dowager was very satisfied.
Wen Rong's face burned.
It's okay to mess around in front of Gu Linchao on weekdays, but in front of the elders, with a thick skin like her, I can't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Although, she did like Gu Linchao very much.
I like it so much that I am willing to live with him forever.
The Empress Dowager suddenly sighed at this moment, "But Chao'er is so good now, but she suffered too much when she was young..."
Wen Yunyun was startled for a while, seeing the sad expression on her face, his heart tightened, he held her hand, and said in relief: "That's all over, don't think too much about it, the Empress Dowager."
The Empress Dowager held her hand instead, patted the back of her hand lightly, shook her head and said: "But Aijia will never let go of that matter until his death. If it wasn't for Aijia's negligence back then, Chao'er There is no need to suffer that pain, Aijia has been blaming himself for many years and cannot forgive himself."
Wen Hao felt that what the empress dowager said must be related to what the king said when he was in the mansion, maybe it was the same thing.
She was actually very curious about what happened to Gu Linchao back then, but she didn't ask when the words came to her lips.
The empress dowager blamed herself so much, the truth must be very cruel, she might not dare to listen.
But the Empress Dowager suddenly mentioned this matter, and she planned to tell her.
"... When Chao'er was seven years old, on the Lantern Festival, the Ai family took Prince Jiande and Chao'er out of the palace to watch the lanterns, but they were attacked by assassins on the way, and all the guards who accompanied me out of the palace were killed. , The assassin set fire to the lantern festival, causing chaos.
Prince Jiande was injured by a falling log in order to save me. At that time, I was so anxious, and there were people running for their lives everywhere, I was only thinking about Prince Jiande's injury. When I turned around to look, I realized that he was gone..."
Speaking of this, tears flashed in the Empress Dowager's eyes.
Wen Yunlong's heart sank when he heard this, and he couldn't help asking: "Then what happened afterwards? Did you find the prince?"
The Empress Dowager said bitterly: "At that time, the late Emperor sent many people to look for him, but they couldn't find Chao'er. I even thought he was killed. Until a year later, the people sent by the Prince Jiande found him in Heilongjiang. Zhouzhou found him. But when Prince Jiande rushed over, Chaoer was being treated inhumanly. He almost, just... "
The empress dowager was so choked up that she couldn't speak.
Wen Yujun's heart tightened, thinking of what King Huan said, his complexion became very ugly.
Sure enough, the Empress Dowager gritted her teeth and said angrily, "That beast even fed Chao'er bone incense, and almost killed him... He was only eight years old at the time, how dare they?"
Wen Rongjun clenched his fingers, as expected, Gu Linchao had been hit by Fragrant Bone Fragrance before, but he didn't expect that at such a young age, those people were really insane.
At this time, her hand tightened, but it was the Empress Dowager who squeezed her hand tightly, "Not only that, that year, Chao'er survived by begging. to the point...
You know, Chao'er is very smart, he is very talented, no matter what he does, he can learn it in no time, he is very favored by the late emperor, the late emperor even gave him the name Linchao, because he has high hopes for him , but after returning from Hezhou, although the first emperor still loved him, he changed his mind. "
Wen Rongjun's heart shuddered, yes, isn't Linchao the meaning of the emperor's courtship? So the late emperor's original intended successor was Gu Linchao
But after Gu Linchao encountered those things, the first emperor changed his mind.
Did the first emperor feel that Gu Linchao was already stained, so he was not worthy of being emperor anymore
She suddenly felt that this matter was not that simple.
"Queen, was the crown prince Jiande established later?" She asked suddenly.
The Empress Dowager was still immersed in pain, she didn't think carefully about her words, she just nodded, "Yes."
Wen Rongjun clenched the handkerchief tightly, she had an idea in her heart, ready to come out.
Could it be that everything that Gu Linchao went missing and ended up in Hezhou, and was abandoned by the late emperor was all a conspiracy of Prince Jiande
He was jealous of Gu Linchao, and only by getting rid of Gu Linchao could he naturally get the position of crown prince, so he secretly planned all this
If this is the case, the mind of Prince Jiande is too dark and terrifying.
To be able to design and frame one's own younger brother is already insane and inhumane.
