Knowing the emperor's attitude, Yun Fenghuang was relieved.
Although after Chunjia left, no news came that day, and she no longer focused on how to escape, but finally had time to comfort her children.
King Qin and Princess Zhaoqing were the fastest, and they also had the most complicated expressions.
The eldest son of the emperor is finally married, so he is much more mature.
But Princess Zhaoqing couldn't hold back her words. She hugged Yun Fenghuang and cried a lot. After telling some things about those confinement days, she immediately choked up and asked: "Mother, Concubine, everyone outside Rumming said that my son After the incident with my leg, you acted very worried in front of my father’s sons and ministers, but privately you didn’t care, and you even took the time to study dressing up... Is that true?”
Next to him, King Qin hesitated to speak, but finally he whispered a word of advice: "I don't want to ignore the rain... There must be nonsense outside. How can my mother and concubine wrong us? Don't we know it in our own hearts all these years?"
The princess also sounded a little apologetic, and said hesitantly: "Don't take it to heart, concubine. I will be upset after hearing this. How can concubine be..."
"None of those are true." Yun Fenghuang was silent for a short time, sighed, and nodded.
"Mother Concubine..." Both King Qin and Zhao Qing were startled, and the waiters on the left and right also held their breaths and did not dare to say anything.
Yun Fenghuang had no fluctuation in her heart. Compared to Chunjia, she didn't even bother to use her brain to pay for her eldest son and eldest daughter. At this moment, she maintained a heavy expression and said slowly: "I was indeed with our father at that time. The emperor is very sad when we are here. In private, he is not only very careful about his dressing and grooming, but also pays close attention to the movements in the palace."
She didn't feel guilty or uneasy at all. She glanced around and asked the children in the school, "Do we know why?"
From what I said before, of course she is just a bumbling adoptive mother.
He didn't take the princess' leg injury to heart at all.
In this case, it is not impossible to blame the eldest son of the emperor.
But Yun Fenghuang's behavior at the moment made it impossible for a pair of children to say such words. I looked at him and he looked at me, feeling a little at a loss.
"We are the eldest sons and daughters of the royal family, do you know what that means?" Yun Fenghuang spoke earnestly and thoughtfully, "Before we were born, our father, the emperor, had a King Qi for a short time, and he was gone before he was even full moon. . And before that, our father’s concubines were not pregnant, and they never gave birth. These words, usually when we are young, I don’t want us to know at all. But Ru Ming, We are also at that age, and we want to be fathers and mothers in the future, but I must mention a few points so that if we encounter similar things in the future, we can protect our children in time."
She showed a look of reminiscence, "I had not been in the palace for a long time at that time, but I was already very popular with our father. Because of that, or maybe because, I... To be precise, I am not the kind of person who is easy to fool. , we have just been able to protect our respective biological mothers and give birth to each other in peace. But our father is not a mediocre monarch. Since he took office as a pro-government, he has gradually freed himself from the constraints of powerful ministers such as the Ji family. In the harem, more and more heirs have been born... "
"After Zhaoqing's accident, I felt guilty and uncomfortable."
"But I am our mother-in-law. In addition to feeling guilty and uncomfortable, the question before me is how to minimize the consequences of that incident?"
"Although Zhaoqing is not the princess or the eldest daughter, please don't forget that our father already had other children at that time."
"If there is ridicule from outsiders, it is easy to use the identity of the royal blood to suppress it. What if there is ridicule from our younger brothers and sisters?"
Zhao Qing said angrily: "The elders and young ones are in order. Who dares to ridicule my son, my son is determined to look good to them!"
Yun Fenghuang looked at her quietly until Zhao Qing shut up, then said: "Is it because our father's most beloved children are us? What if there are others? What about our younger brothers and sisters? At that time, what was the use of the rule of ordering the elders and younger ones? After all, in that palace, in terms of seniority and origin, among us Shumu Concubine and Demu Concubine, who was not in this palace? Why did they ignore them everywhere in those years? Are you going to listen to me? It’s just because I am more favored by our father than they are.”
"And because of this, we get more attention from our father."
"So even if Zhaoqing is lame, even if the accident was an unintentional mistake by King Qin, no one dares to say anything."
"I also knew at the time that something happened to Zhao Qingcai, and I immediately started thinking about fighting for favor or keeping favor. If word got out, it would definitely cause discussion. Even when we grow up and find out, we will definitely blame me."
"But sometimes, I have no choice."
"Zhaoqing has been injured. The imperial physician...the royal physician is not the most skilled doctor in the world. It won't help. Even if I hold us in our arms and cry and be sad, what's the use?"
"In that case, if our father is annoyed, it will make things worse!"
"I have no power to restore Zhaoqing to his original state, so I have to work hard to win our father's favor and make him pay attention to us all the time."
"This is our greatest compensation."
She finished speaking in one breath, looked at the two children with tearful eyes, and said sadly, "So, at that time, I was not only thinking about dressing up in private, but also put a lot of thought into using Zhaoqing's leg injury to win over our father. The Emperor's sympathy and mercy. If we feel that I have done something wrong, then... I..."
"Mother, please don't tell me!" King Qin and Zhao Qing felt so guilty when they heard it halfway. Why did they lose their heads and listen to the many slanderous words from the outside world
He had known for a long time that the concubine behaved differently from ordinary people, and Jiraiya was very fond of them. Even his biological King Jin was often absent. How could he think that the concubine was really scheming after seeing those evidences? This was not true. Where are they
Zhaoqing stood up from his seat sadly and knelt on the ground, "My son is so stupid that he was deceived by outsiders. I beg my mother and concubine to punish me!"
"Get up, my legs will be in pain that I will never forget for the rest of my life." Yun Fenghuang went to the east to help her up and said in a trembling voice, "My concubine is not a fool, let alone treat me as such. If it is my own child, even if it is not true, even if it is wrong, I have a plan. Why is my daughter, who is as beautiful as a flower, not more worthy of use if her limbs are sound? Therefore, due to emotions and reasons, I hope that I will get better than anyone else. But at that time... At that time... At that time, the mother-in-law just wanted to chop off her own legs and give them to me! But the imperial doctor failed to live up to expectations... I... "
She was talking a little incoherently.
The man next to the Qing Dynasty came out with tears just in time and added: "At that time, the empress coaxed you and the east of the Qin Palace to fall asleep. When she came back to the palace, she walked around on the steps for a long time, crying and discussing with the maids, please How can we make up for our future? Later, the maidservants showed off to the empress and asked whether you two are the eldest sons and daughters. Your Majesty should not ignore them. With such status, some flaws are nothing."
"But the empress is not at ease after all. Even in the past and the present, the eldest son and daughter of the emperor have not been wronged."
"Especially when the eldest son and daughter were born, Bidong was still young."
"In the future, Didong's imperial heir will gradually grow up, and you two will get married and start a business. However, Didong's imperial heir is very young and fragile. Who knows whether Bidong will favor the younger ones?"
"At that time, if all the emperors' heirs are sensible and polite, it will be fine. If there are a few ignorant ones who rely on the emperor's favor and see the sky laughing at them, you two, it is not good to care about children, and it will be frustrating if you don't care. Qu, what should I do?"
"My Majesty, after much thought, said that it would be impossible to live the confinement life as unscrupulously as before. Even if it were just you two, I would definitely cheer up and win over your Majesty tightly - don't you know that... Whether the empress was tricked into entering the palace or not, the empress was in a very bad mood at that time, and she even did things based on her own preferences, without caring about the consequences or her own life or death."
"The reason why my queen has become more and more virtuous over the years is because she has rejected us!"
After saying this, the waiters who had served Yun Fenghuang for many years were all in tears.
... That month King Qin and Princess Zhaoqing stayed in Huanhua Palace until evening before reluctantly leaving.
After leaving the palace, King Qin had a rare serious look on his face and blamed his sister: "He just told me not to be so reckless and restrain his temperament. It's just wrong for outsiders, and it's the same for my mother and concubine! I don't want to think about my mother." Concubine’s experiences during those confinements, and Ruming’s mood! She was so happy to see us, so I asked her if she would like to forgive us... I just saw my concubine and the others looking so sad, and I was satisfied. ?”
Princess Zhaoqing was furious when she heard the accusation for the first time in her life, but she felt guilty and whispered listlessly: "He knows he was wrong."
"So what?" King Qin sneered, "If I don't say anything, I'm afraid my heart will be broken!"
He said coldly, "I think about it from the standpoint of my mother and concubine. When I fell, it was because of my own naughtiness and nonsense, and it was very much his ignorance! However, stricter parents, looking at such My child, it would be nice if you don’t give us a beating afterwards! Not only did the mother-in-law not have any punishment, she sincerely felt sorry for us and thought about our long-term interests! So what? I just heard what Aunt Qingren said, the mother-in-law doesn’t care about us. , endured the humiliation and endured the heavy burden for more than ten years, but in exchange for it, I would follow others and doubt her!"
"He really wanted to find a hole to crawl in just now!"
"Even if my mother-in-law had two dogs, they would bark twice at Ruming. What did I and him do for my mother-in-law during my confinement?"
"Can you hurt her faster than anyone else?"
Princess Zhaoqing cried silently after being scolded and did not dare to raise her head.
Seeing her like this, King Qin just stopped talking, but his face was still ugly: "Let me think about it carefully. What I said is wrong. We are no longer children now, and he has become a father. As for me, I will beg to be my mother sooner or later after Donglai comes down. If I don’t know my head when things happen like that, how many times will I be angry with my mother and concubine in the future?”
The brother and sister's wrong words quickly reached the imperial court.
After hearing this, Chunjia was speechless for a moment, then said with complicated emotions: "My eldest son and eldest daughter do not have a pure mind."
The people on the left and right didn't know what to say. After a moment, Fang braced himself and agreed: "The east of King Qin's palace and the east of Princess Zhaoqing's palace are indeed simple."
Although she knew that the empress could even deal with the Emperor, and could she capsize in front of her children, but she could so easily and quickly relieve the two children of their doubts and continue to be devoted to her, then...
It can be said that the eldest son and daughter of the emperor seem to be arrogant and difficult to deal with, but in fact they are innocent in nature...
Of course, Meng and the other people who hoped that Yun Fenghuang would be completely wiped out did not think so.
