The queen mother was seriously ill, and the concubines in the harem also came to accompany her.
The queen mother didn't really want to see anyone, she just wanted to see the dim sums.
Originally sick and angry, the child shouldn't stay with him, but Yuan Qingling did not have this taboo, and it is not a contagious disease. It is a blessing to stay with the child.
Therefore, Yuan Qingling simply stayed in the palace and was able to bring her children to see him at any time. In addition, she knew medical skills and accompanied the Queen Mother. If there was an emergency, she could be treated in time.
Therefore, in these few days, the Queen Mother has been in the temple with her almost all day.
On the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Queen Mother looked much more energetic, and she was able to sit up and eat a bowl of porridge. After eating, she felt pale and wanted to eat some cakes, so Yuan Qingling asked someone to do it.
Early in the palace, he began to prepare for the queen mother's funeral. All the arrangements were handled by the inner palace and the Ministry of Rites. Everyone seemed to be prepared, and the harem was also waiting for the moment when the queen mother died.
But today, seeing the Queen Mother has a good appetite and she can still sit up. This is something we haven't tried since her condition worsened. Everyone seemed to see hope again in their hearts.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, a banquet was set up in the harem.
The queen mother got better this day, and said she wanted to go out to see the harem.
The weather was getting colder again. Emperor Ming Yuan didn't allow it, but she insisted on going, so she had to prepare her shoulders and ask someone to carry it out and sit in the pavilion.
The palace is very lively today. There are lanterns and colors everywhere. To celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, the imperial garden is filled with strings of red lanterns. A word puzzle is posted outside each lantern. The queen mother sits inside and looks at the royal family. The young children and girls are guessing hard.
This lively atmosphere has always been very high, because there are many programs arranged in the palace today, and a theater troupe has been specially set up to start the gong after only a while after lunch.
Fresh lotus seeds were brought up, and Yuan Qingling peeled two for the queen mother.
The queen mother doesn't eat much, but likes the taste, "This lotus seed is like life, first bitter and then fragrant, and the aftertaste is sweet and long."
"Then you eat two more!" The imperial concubine smiled while holding the tenth prince beside her.
"No, eating this thing is like life, just taste it, don't be greedy." The queen mother pressed her hand and turned to look at the ten prince, with a frowning smile, "this kid, how can he get fatter as he eats? Caught up with his second brother."
Concubine Sun looked at her little uncle and also smiled, "You are really told, look carefully, it's just a diminished cock."
Yuan Qing Ling also glanced at it and couldn't help but laugh. Indeed, King Sun is the plus version of the ten princes, all with fat heads and big ears, with round faces.
She smiled and said, "This is a wealthy look, okay."
Princess An asked: "Didn't you listen to your second brother saying you want to lose weight earlier? Why didn't it work?"
Concubine Sun said in an unpleasant manner: "You listen to him? How many times a year he says he wants to lose weight. He has never succeeded. He can't control his mouth. If he doesn't eat, he feels that the sky will collapse."
"Last year, it looked a little less clear."
"That's because he was injured in the attack. To avoid food, he just said to lose weight. When he gets better, he still eats? He doesn't like to move. He is really a pig."
Although Princess Sun is burying her husband and son-in-law, her eyes are full of smiles, which shows that she likes it very much.
Rong Yue peeled off the curtains and asked the queen mother, "Old lady, do you like more ten princes, or do you like more dim sums? "
This question is sharp. Everyone looks at the queen mother, even Concubine Hu turned his head to look at it.
Yuan Qingling pushed Rong Yue, "What do you like more? They are all the old ladies' darlings, and they like them the same."
Rong Yue's mouth is really begging sometimes.
The queen mother looked at the ten princes, lovingly said: "The prince is right, they all like it the same."
As she said, her eyes drifted out and saw Dim Sum playing with Snow Wolf. Three little apples with red faces, all of them were royal children. Naturally, she loved them the same way, but these three babies were caring and intelligent. It's human nature to love it a little bit more.
The queen mother looked at the royal descendants in the garden with satisfaction. The autumn sun filled the palace with golden light. She felt a little hungry and asked people to get a bowl of glutinous rice balls.
There are ten in a bowl of glutinous rice balls, and she can't eat five of them, but thinking that the glutinous rice balls are going to be reunion, so even if she is full, she can barely eat the rest.
After eating, she asked the dim sums to come over, stretched out her hand and stroked their faces, her eyes were nostalgic for kindness, "If there is anything left to give up, it is these children, I really hope to see them grow up and become children. ."
Everyone felt sad after hearing these words.
The imperial concubine smiled and said: "Queen dowager, you can definitely see it, you have to choose the concubine for them yourself."
The queen mother stared for a long time before sighing softly, "The world's women, I am afraid that there are few who can match them, and whoever marries them will be wronged."
Yuan Qingling smiled, "Emperor Grandma, they are not incredible treasures, you are not afraid of people's jokes by these words."
The queen mother proudly said: "The treasure of the treasure, whoever marries, the girl of whose family is blessed."
The bun was holding a sepak takraw ball in his hand, and the urn sounded in an earnest manner: "Grandma, I will marry you when I grow up, how delicious your house is."
When the queen mother heard it, she was startled and laughed. Everyone was so childish and unpredictable.
The eyes of the Queen Mother were wet and she looked at the buns, "Remember what the great grandmother said, marrying in the future, pure mind is the most important thing, to be like your mother and concubine, don't be like you..."
Her words stopped, and her eyes were a little gloomy. Although she didn't say it, everyone knew that she was talking about Concubine Xian.
Yes, marrying a wife is absolutely not allowed to marry a concubine like this.
After lunch, the theater group kicked off. The Supreme Emperor also came to see in person and sat with the Queen Mother. The Supreme Emperor also rarely held the Queen Mother's hand all the way.
All the princes and county princes also came with their families and took their seats to watch the theater together.
In the Caile Hall, the sun is covered, the golden yellow leaves are flying, the white clouds are floating under the blue sky, this kind of time seems to be transparent and quiet, even the butterflies playing with the flowers have stopped, listen carefully That spends a full moon singing.
The queen mother's head slowly rested on the shoulders of the emperor.
There was a happy smile at the corner of his mouth.
Her husband-in-law, her sons and daughters, her grandson, and her great-grandson are all around her, and her eyes are slowly closed in the days when the singing and dancing are rising.
At the end of the opera, the Emperor Tai Shang stretched out his hand, gently embraced her shoulder, and sighed inaudibly.
All the red lanterns in the entire palace were taken off and replaced with white lanterns. These, the inner palace had already been prepared.
After the death of Empress Dowager Su, Emperor Ming and Yuan made an order to mourn the whole country.
