Seventy-second bowl of soup (5)
It was the first time for the emperor to have his own child. He had never seen what it was like for a woman to give birth to a child. Even a cold-hearted person like Queen Wei couldn't help but wailed like that. He stood outside for a while, until the eunuch reported that Marshal Wei asked to see him.
Seeking to see him at this time, there must be some urgent matter, the emperor looked back at Fengyi Palace, then turned and left. Empress Wei inside was relieved when she learned that her father had already entered the palace. She didn't need her father to come to Fengyi Palace to wait for her. She only needed him here so that she could feel at ease.
She was able to reach the position she is today, and she can successfully marry the person she likes, all relying on her father and brother, so if she doesn't get a lot of love, then she must hold the power in her hands, and she must not lose it easily. Because the empress and the Wei family share the same honor and disgrace, they are one and the same.
How could she forget other things just because of her love for His Majesty
I don't know how long it has been in pain, I only know that my body has almost no strength, the whole body is almost collapsed, the tearing pain comes one after another, in the comforting sound of Huazhi crying, Empress Wei pushed with all her strength, and then Then passed out.
Before closing her eyes, she heard the baby crying.
Because the child was born at full term, he was in very good health and cried loudly. Empress Wei was concerned about the child, she woke up after a short coma, and the first thing she did was to ask Hua Zhi: "Where is the child?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry, the little prince is fine." Hua Zhi smiled, "This is the medicine that the imperial doctor asked your Majesty to drink for your body. Your Majesty has just given birth to the prince, and she is at a time when she is weak."
Prince.
Queen Wei herself didn't know whether the child in her womb was a boy or a girl, but unfortunately, the child had to be a boy, otherwise all her plans would be empty talk. She even prepared a backhand, if she gave birth to a female fetus, she would immediately replace it with a boy she had found in the folks. It was cruel to do so, but there was nothing else she could do. That's all she could do if she wanted to survive.
But fortunately, maybe the gods took pity on her and gave her an ideal child.
"That's good."
Seeing that Empress Wei was happy, Hua Zhi said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, you won't be unhappy in the future." After having a child, your Majesty won't feel sad for His Majesty day and night, right? Huazhi was really lucky, she never wanted to see the empress waited since dark, and waited and waited, but she would never be able to wait for the person who was supposed to come.
Queen Wei thought to herself, it is true that she will not be unhappy anymore, but it is also true that she will not be happy. As early as after she had finished that nightmare, she forgot who she was. She only remembered that she was carrying the honor and disgrace of the entire Wei family, and that she had lost all emotions and desires, and would never open her heart and wait for others to trample on her. . But she didn't want to disappoint Huazhi either. "Does Your Majesty know?"
"Understood, when the little prince was born, the maidservant asked someone to report to His Majesty, and Marshal Wei also knew about it. I heard that Marshal Wei was so happy that he turned several somersaults in the imperial study." Hua Zhi said Laughing all the time.
Empress Wei listened to her description vividly, and seemed to be able to think of her father with well-developed limbs and simple mind who was happy. But to her, the boldness and unruliness is probably a provocation of contempt for someone as suspicious as His Majesty. Dare to be so presumptuous and disrespectful in the Imperial Study Room, is it because he doesn't take His Majesty seriously. "My palace knows, pass on the decree, and everyone will be rewarded."
"yes!"
The first month after giving birth was to be spent in bed. Empress Wei asked someone to hold the little prince to her side. The little guy has inherited the best qualities of his parents. He has delicate features at a very young age. Good-looking, I don't know how many girls' hearts I will break. His father is so handsome, and there are countless people who admire him, but a person has only one heart, which cannot be divided into thousands of parts. Those who get it are honored, and those who don't get it are miserable.
What Empress Wei didn't expect was that the emperor who didn't have to come to Fengyi Palace on the 15th day of the lunar new year came again, and it was still on the 16th day of the second day!
He never came here on days other than the first and fifteenth day of the new year.
The emperor wanted to see the little prince. He actually saw it once yesterday. At that time, the little thing was glowing red. He didn't expect it to be white and soft in just one day. He stared at it for a long time. The little guy has been sleeping soundly. Occasionally It is also very cute to make a few hums.
The child is so young and tender, with a round face, the emperor tried to touch it lightly with his hand, it was as tender as tofu, and he was worried that he would break him if he touched it. No matter how ruthless he is to Empress Wei, this child is also his flesh and blood, so a kind of gentleness appeared on his face, until Xiaomei's Empress Wei opened her eyes and saw him, and the first sentence was: "Why is your majesty here?" ?”
The emperor thought her tone was weird, as if he saw some monster, so he asked, "Can't I come?"
"The concubine dare not. It's just that the concubine has just given birth and cannot serve His Majesty. I'm afraid it will be abrupt."
The emperor glanced at her. She was a little haggard. She was quite different from the charming and beautiful woman in the past. She seemed to be a bit weak. It seemed that the invincible Empress Cui also had a fragile side. But this idea quickly made the emperor shudder, why would he think like this
Empress Wei didn't pay attention to what he was thinking, but asked him: "I heard that Marshal Wei has entered the palace today, but do you have something important to discuss with His Majesty?" Otherwise, there might not be a trace of wrinkle between his brows. Whenever the emperor had any troubles, he would habitually frown, which made him always have a few marks between his brows, and Empress Wei was also sure that her father must have said something important to keep the emperor summoned for so long.
"It's not a big deal," said the emperor.
As soon as he said Queen Wei, he knew that the other party didn't want to tell him. It was one thing that the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, but on the other hand, the emperor didn't trust her. But Empress Wei is not stupid, she can use the words and deeds of the emperor to infer what makes her worry.
Now in the entire life of the world, the only people who can make the emperor irritated, except the Wei family, are the barbarians who often come to harass and plunder the border. Those barbarians were brave and good at fighting and cruel by nature. Every autumn and winter, when there was a shortage of food and grass, they would attack the border towns every year. But it must be more serious this year, otherwise the emperor would not stretch out his hand to rub the center of his brows from time to time, he is not uncomfortable, but purely irritable.
The relationship between the two of them still hasn't improved much, at most they can say a few words without getting angry. The emperor may also feel that it is boring to face Empress Wei here, and after looking at the little prince, he left. After a while, Huazhi came to report that the emperor had gone to Cheng Meiren.
When she said that, she carefully observed Empress Wei's face. Empress Wei wanted to laugh a little. It's sad. The reason why she was meditating was because she was thinking that if the border war was serious this time, the commander-in-chief's father would definitely be sent out. His Majesty has become more and more anxious recently. He has been secretly deploying for so many years, so he needs a chance. Is it possible this time... After all, my father has not rushed to the frontier for almost ten years.
Their Wei family has already taken root here, even if all the men from the Wei family come out, there is still one of her here. Empress Wei had no doubts that if His Majesty used herself as a bait, her beloved father would definitely fall for it immediately.
Thinking of this, she felt a little chilled, this man, she just gave birth to a child for him with all her life, but he was full of calculations for her in his heart, how could he not make people feel sad. But Empress Wei touched her chest, where the fresh heart was still beating, but it would never beat for anyone again.
She originally thought that she was His Majesty's wife so she would solve His Majesty's worries and problems, but as a wife, she must be gentle and considerate and not overly aggressive, so she never put eyeliner in the palace, but it is different now. Now the emperor sneezes several times a day and wrote She knows a few words clearly.
She was extremely smart and loved him very much, but this love was slowly burned to ashes, leaving only a strong obsession in Empress Wei's heart, no longer expecting the emperor's love and understanding, only May the family live in peace.
She doesn't ask for much, but most of the time God always wants to make some bad jokes with her.
Within a few days, Empress Wei learned that Marshal Wei had volunteered to go on an expedition. She sighed, but she knew that this was inevitable. Her father refused to accept his old age, and always wanted to do a big business again. He was simple-minded and never thought about serving the world. He just liked military life, but for the controller To me, this is arrogance, a kind of arrogance with evil intentions.
When the emperor was in the court, he deliberately stopped it a few times. After all, Marshal Wei's absence in the capital was actually more important to his layout. It was best to take all the other men of the Wei family out.
What kind of power does the emperor have? Empress Wei didn't know, but she didn't need to know either. Although the emperor was ruthless to her, he was very good at controlling people. Empress Wei knew how his subordinates would be loyal to him without even thinking about it. It is as difficult as going to heaven to make a group of dead men turn their backs.
Perhaps Cheng Zuizui also knew this, so when he came to pay his respects to other concubines these days, although his expressions were all humble, his eyes were full of sarcasm. Probably in her opinion, no matter how arrogant Queen Wei is, she will not be so arrogant for a few days.
Queen Wei's good days will come to an end soon. As for that child... Cheng Zuizui admits that he is not some kind of virgin, it was born by a man he loves and another woman, and she doesn't want to keep him.
