The little daughter-in-law of the palace

Chapter 440
The event was settled, and the queen mother ordered Chu Qing and others to step down, and in front of King Shou Wang Rui, told the two concubines, Concubine Li and Concubine Hui, "The emperor is seriously ill, and I am old, and I am powerless to take care of him personally, so just leave auspicious Stare here. Among the concubines, the emperor usually loves you two the most, so you should work harder and take turns to serve you."

Concubine Hui cried and answered, and when she reached out to wipe her tears, the veil covered the doubt in her eyes.

Concubine Li was also puzzled. In the evening, Concubine Hui took care of Emperor Mingde, and she went to the Palace of Compassion.

"Mother, why do you still let her serve the emperor?" Concubine Li asked aggrievedly.Concubine Hui is younger than her and more beautiful than her, and she stole her favor as soon as she entered the palace. The only thing she is better than Concubine Hui is that she has her aunt backing her. ...

The niece is beautiful and has no brains. The queen mother is too lazy to tell her, fearing that she will show signs of suspicion after knowing the truth, so she reprimanded displeasedly: "The emperor is so sick that you still have the heart to fight for favor? If you are not my own niece, then Based on what you just said, I will throw you into limbo!"

Concubine Li didn't get the expected explanation but was scolded instead. She was taken aback, looked at the empress dowager's gloomy face, didn't dare to stay here anymore, and walked away in desperation.

The queen mother watched her leave, and suddenly fell backwards.

The maid next to her was shocked and hurried over to serve her.The Empress Dowager just turned around all of a sudden, she recovered her clarity after lying down, she didn't allow the maids to preach to the imperial physician, and she didn't want to listen to their nagging, she waved them away, then turned inside, lay down, with a few eyes under the corners of her eyes. Drop old tears.

That is her own son, she can't do something like a tiger poisoning a son, but, for her dearest grandson, for the glory of her mother's family for generations, she can't let her son recover, and she can't let him hand over the throne to In the hands of the king.

So she had to arrange for Concubine Li and Concubine Hui to serve her son together.

Concubine Li was only allowed to serve the emperor. If something happened to the emperor, the world would immediately suspect that they had tampered with secretly. Concubine Li and Concubine Hui took turns to show that she was just and could cover it up.Today her son was ill and paralyzed, so she let King Shou take care of the government first, and after a while his son could not recover, she then helped King Ding ascend the throne before King Ding returned to Beijing, so it was logical.When King Shou took that seat, King Ding came back too late. If he dared to be dishonest, he would be disobedient and rebellious.

Good luck.

The Empress Dowager took a long breath, and gradually calmed down in her old and cloudy eyes.

Take care of your home.

The emperor had a stroke, and Gu Heng also entered the palace. When Ding Wang and others left the palace, he went back to the palace together.

"How is the emperor?" Old lady Gu asked anxiously, and Gu Heng's mother, Dong Shi, was also worried and looked at her son nervously.

Gu Heng explained briefly.

The old lady Gu looked at her grandson, and her thoughts changed. King Ding is not in the capital, the emperor is paralyzed in bed, and the queen mother is the most important in the palace. The queen mother is the king of longevity and they belong to the Gu family...

Mrs. Dong didn't think as much as her mother-in-law thought. She looked at her daughter-in-law's yard and told her son with a sigh, "Don't let the fairy know about this. That child can't stand any more blows." While wiping tears, Meng Xianxian is a good daughter-in-law, seeing her lose weight day by day, Dong really feels distressed.

Gu Heng nodded. The situation in Beijing had suddenly changed. He had many things to reconsider, so he said goodbye to his family and went to the study.

When night fell, he went to eat with his wife and children. After the meal, the children left with the nurse, and Gu Heng took care of his wife to wash.

Meng Xianxian knew that there was not much time left, so she cherished the opportunity to be with her husband very much. She looked at him intently, and soon noticed the sadness on the man's face. What's the matter?"

Gu Heng glanced at her as if suddenly returning to his senses, and then smiled unnaturally: "It's okay, it's okay, don't think too much about it."

When he saw that he was lying, Meng Xianxian thought that her good sister had died and her husband had kept it from her for a long time, and this time someone she valued might have had an accident, so she became anxious, "Ziyan, what's the matter? Tell me quickly. Me, if you don't tell me, I feel uncomfortable, I..."

In a hurry, Meng Xianxian coughed suddenly, covering his mouth with a handkerchief. He coughed so badly, but his face was as white as paper.

Gu Heng looked at his wife who was like a candle in the wind with a complicated expression.

After sharing the same bed for so many years, it is impossible for him to have no feelings for her. However, he even gave up his own sister for revenge. Meng Xianxian is a person who has a short life...

Ding Wang is far away in Fujian, and the emperor's illness is like a mountain, which is beneficial to the Shou Wang who stays in the capital, but there will be risks when the big event is not settled for a day, and he will take refuge in the past at this time. It doesn't make any sense for Shou Wang to seek refuge after he ascends the throne, and Shou Wang will not value him.But when he went out to do anything at this time, he would be followed by anyone he saw. If he wanted to see King Shou, there was only one way.

Gu Heng clenched his hands, shook off the last bit of hesitation, and hugged his wife, "The fairy promised me, don't you rush after listening to me?"

Meng Xianxian nodded while coughing, urging him to speak quickly.

Gu Heng sighed, put his face against his wife's profile, and whispered in her ear.
