Sandalwood lingered in Kunning Palace, and the queen mother sighed: "Aijia really didn't expect Ji Shi to be such a person."
Emperor Jing Ming sighed: "My son didn't expect it either."
Thinking of the concubine Xian, who was benevolent and poisonous, the concubine Ning, who even ate roast chicken in a big event, and the queen who dared to throw her sleeves at him, Emperor Jing Ming felt that women were too complicated.
Only he can't think of it, and it can't be done without them.
Thinking about the number of concubines and concubines in the harem, Emperor Jing Ming suddenly felt that the three thousand in the harem was simply the greatest pressure on being the emperor.
"Ai's family has already told the queen that Fuqing will not come over in the future."
"Queen Mother—" Emperor Jing Ming's expression changed slightly.
The Queen Mother smiled bitterly: "This time, Concubine Xian instructed Xiao Dengzi to deceive Fuqing under the name of Cining Palace, only to get the opportunity to start, and also killed 14 lives. The Shangyuan Festival is also related to Cining Palace. Aijia is really sorry. We can't let Fuqing go wrong again for the sake of Aijia's selfishness..."
Emperor Jing Ming hurriedly said with relief: "Mother, this has nothing to do with you. Fuqing's service to you is her filial piety as her granddaughter."
The Empress Dowager shook her head: "Your Majesty, don't persuade him again. Over and over again, accidents in Fuqing always have something to do with the Cining Palace. No matter how much Aijia comforts her, she can't get over this hurdle."
"Which other girl do you like, let her come to accompany you."
The queen mother sighed and looked lonely: "No, it's good for Aijia to worship Buddha quietly as before."
Emperor Jing Ming blamed himself very much: "It's all because the son is incompetent, and he can't find the traitor who is making trouble in the palace, and the mother can't be relieved."
The queen mother looked at Emperor Jing Ming and frowned: "What does the emperor mean, do you think there is someone behind Concubine Xian?"
Emperor Jing Ming was stagnant for a while, and explained embarrassingly: "My son doesn't mean that, but he thinks that there are too many incidents in the palace..."
The Empress Dowager sighed and pointed out the window: "Your Majesty, how big is the sky in this palace compared to the sky outside? So many people stay in the most noble place in the world all their lives, and they can't get out. There are more desires, and there are naturally more things that can’t be caused by asking for it. In Aijia’s view, this is normal, and the palace will amplify people’s desires infinitely. And you are the king of a country, you have to look at the world , don't be stumped by these things in the palace."
Emperor Jing Ming nodded: "Mother is right."
The queen mother retracted her gaze and fell back to Emperor Jingming: "Does King Qi know?"
Mentioning King Qi, Emperor Jing Ming's face darkened slightly: "I see, my son let him go into the palace to see Ji's last face, and it's all about their mother-son relationship."
The empress dowager nodded: "The emperor is thoughtful. After all, the Ji family is a high-ranking concubine. When she suddenly disappears, she must let some people understand the inside story, so as not to cause trouble. Then the king of Qi has gone back?"
Emperor Jing Ming was silent for a moment and said, "I'm still kneeling in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, saying I'm here to apologize."
The Empress Dowager touched the Buddha beads and said with a frown, "Has the emperor not seen him?"
Emperor Jing Ming sneered: "I'm upset when I see it."
The queen mother shook her head and persuaded earnestly: "Your Majesty, Concubine Xian made a big mistake, but King Qi didn't know about it after all, and he is your own son, so there is no need to take anger."
Emperor Jing Ming moved his lips but said nothing.
To be honest, he has always been indifferent to the fourth child, neither liked nor bored. Of course, he is completely bored by now.
Maybe it's the lack of temper
When the queen mother saw that Emperor Jingming did not listen, she sighed: "Your Majesty, you are not only a father, but also a monarch to several princes, and you can't come by your own preferences. The position of the prince is vacant at the moment. Wrong, don't be too harsh, lest there will be no one to choose in the future... "
When Emperor Jing Ming heard the Queen Mother's words, he felt a little heavy.
The prince died, the King of Jin made a mistake to guard the imperial mausoleum, and the King of Xiang was imprisoned.
"Your Majesty, be more tolerant of a few children, or you will end up being passive in the end." The Queen Mother said meaningfully.
Emperor Jing Ming nodded: "My son understands what you mean."
When the queen mother saw it, she put it away, picked up the tea cup and said: "The emperor is busy."
Emperor Jing Ming left the Cining Palace and returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. He saw that King Qi was still kneeling there, his boots embroidered with golden dragons parked in front of the crumbling King Qi.
King Qi raised his head with a sad expression: "Father, my son is here to apologize to you."
He started to kowtow as he spoke, smashing his forehead on the jade brick one after another, and soon saw bloodstains.
Emperor Jing Ming stood for a while and said lightly, "Go back, Ji's business has nothing to do with you."
"The mother's debt is paid by the son. If the mother and concubine made a mistake, the son made a mistake. If the father is angry, let him spread it on his son. If you hold it in your heart and hurt your body, your son's sin will be even worse."
"I said it has nothing to do with you, go back."
"Yes." King Qi kowtowed a few more times before staggering away.
Returning to the cold and cold Prince Qi's mansion, Prince Qi plunged into the study, beating the table and crying bitterly.
The death of the mother and concubine made the father even more disgusted with him, and the road he had been thinking about for many years was completely ruined.
The desk vibrated, and a volume fell down with a muffled sound.
This sound interrupted King Qi's venting, staring blankly at the book.
I don't know how long it took, King Qi suddenly jumped up, hurriedly went around the bookshelf and opened the hidden compartment.
There are not many objects in the dark grid, mainly letters and other things, and these are the most important.
King Qi hurriedly opened the letters and pulled out a letter from the bottom.
There is not a single word on the surface of the envelope.
King Qi rubbed the elegant lines on the envelope, his expression kept changing, and finally he gritted his teeth and opened the seal.
There were several sheets of thick and thick letter paper. King Qi hurriedly read it, and then read it word by word from beginning to end, and murmured against the bookshelf, "So that's how it is..."
The mother concubine was actually instigated by the queen mother to kill the thirteenth sister.
King Qi remembered the last time to greet Concubine Xian, what Concubine Xian said when she handed him this secret letter before leaving: "Zhang'er, if one day the concubine is gone and you are in a difficult situation, open this letter again. Come and see."
He brought the letter back, restrained his curiosity and put it in the secret compartment, where he spent days and nights wondering what was written on the letter.
Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for the mother and concubine to have an accident.
The Queen Mother's kindness and kindness appeared in King Qi's mind, which was a little incredible.
The queen mother hides so deeply!
With the letter from the mother-in-law, he will not be kept in the dark. If the queen mother stands by him in the future, he will have the queen mother's handle.
The father was filial to the queen mother. This letter was enough to make the father suspicious of the queen mother, which must be something the queen mother did not want to see.
Of course, he will not mention this letter to the queen mother unless it is absolutely necessary.
The queen mother... can you really help him get that seat
When King Qi left the palace, the heart that had fallen into despair came alive again.
