Ajiu

Chapter 258 Relief
The Empress Dowager Zhang is different from the fat emperor, the process of leaving is long and painful.She was not feeling well, and her mood was even more irritable. She often couldn't sleep all night, coughed, became weak, lost her temper, her face was flushed, and her eyes were even more frightening.After the deposed prince died, she had a stroke, half of her body was paralyzed, she couldn't get out of bed at all, and her temper became worse and worse. She knocked over the medicine bowl and refused to be treated by the imperial physician, making it very difficult to serve her.

She was uncomfortable, and so were the emperor, empress and six children.During the few months when she was bedridden, the emperor and empress often served in the Ningshou Palace, and she lost a lot of weight. Even the children couldn't stop, and they were tortured by their parents.

"Mother, I understand what you said now. Grandpa is blessed." Xiao Zhengzheng was deeply moved when he witnessed the struggle of Empress Dowager Zhang before her death.

Grandfather and grandmother are so blessed.The old man passed away quietly in his sleep, which was much better than grandma's suffering in the hospital bed day after day.At least, he didn't suffer so much.

"Grandfather is indeed blessed." Ajiu looked gentle, "In his old age, he arranged all the important state affairs and family affairs, and he didn't worry about it. He took his grandchildren to play every day. How pleasant and happy."

The Empress Dowager Zhang is incomparable.She is full of worries, her eldest son died of illness, her two daughters are away from home and cannot see each other often, her natal family cannot get support, her son has become an emperor but he is not close to her... She has too many worries and cannot be happy at all.Although physical discomfort made her uncomfortable, mental pain made her sleepless and restless. Her old age was destined to be difficult and unhappy.

"Mom, you've lost weight." Xiao Zheng was very distressed.

Empress Dowager Zhang fell ill this time, and Ajiu had to go to Ningshou Palace every day to serve her sick, she lost a lot of weight, and her chin became pointed.

Ajiu touched her cheek narcissistically, "Have you lost weight? I seemed to have gained weight a while ago, and I was worried about it. Son, has mother really lost weight? Very good, very good."

Xiao Zhengzheng couldn't laugh or cry.Mom, you are so beautiful.

"There is also Daddy, who is also very tired." Xiao Zhengzheng said softly, "Daddy has also lost weight."

Ajiu sighed inaudibly, "Son, let your father go to Ningshou Palace more and do his part. The more he suffers physically, the calmer he will be in his heart, and the less guilty he will feel."

Xiaozheng nodded silently.

The mother is very smart, and what she says is always right.

"Mother, when you get old, I will be filial to you and take care of you personally." Xiao Zhengzheng expressed his feelings.

"I'm not old." Ajiu rolled his eyes at him angrily, "I'm always young and beautiful, cute and charming! Whoever wants to be old is taken care of by you, it's not rare!"

"That's right, it's not rare." The emperor walked in exhaustedly, with a slight smile on his face, "My little junior sister is unique, how can she grow old? Impossible."

Ajiu smiled triumphantly, "Of course!"

The emperor walked up to Ajiu, stretched out an arm to embrace her, and looked at Xiao Zhengzheng calmly, "Even if my little junior sister is really gray-haired, I am the one who will stay with her. Son, what are you looking for?" Go to a cool place to rest."

Ajiu looked up at him, and the two looked at each other with smiles, affectionately.

Xiaozheng was looking at the two of them sullenly, and couldn't bear to ask, "Daddy, where is my little junior sister? Why did you pick me a teacher who doesn't have a daughter?!"

"Son, it's a matter of luck." The emperor turned his head with a smile, and talked eloquently, "When your grandfather chose a teacher for daddy, he paid attention to the teacher's knowledge and character. Girl, it's the same reason why Dad chooses a teacher for you."

"Father's teacher has a cute little daughter at home, it's because of his luck; your teacher only has a son and no daughter, it's because of your bad luck..."

Before the emperor finished showing off, Xiaozheng turned around and left in an upright manner.

The unscrupulous parents, Emperor and Ajiu, didn't pay any attention to the minor's emotional problems, hugged each other, and continued to be affectionate.

"Isn't it good that the queen mother is like this, and we are like this?" Ajiu suddenly realized her conscience, looked up at the emperor, and asked in a low voice with a guilty conscience.

She was suffering on the hospital bed, full of resentment, and we were still talking about love...

"No." The emperor said softly: "Parents want their children to be well, right? The queen mother must also want us to live happily and happily, and doesn't want us to have a sad face."

Since Empress Dowager Zhang suffered a stroke, the emperor's resentment towards her has gradually disappeared, and compassion has prevailed.He often took care of Queen Mother Zhang's soup and medicine himself, and refused to pretend to be a maid. The Queen Mother Zhang became more and more impatient with him. He didn't seem to take it to heart at all, and was more considerate to Queen Mother Zhang.

He often comforts himself, "The queen mother actually loves me very much, but she is angry with me because she is not feeling well." No matter what kind of person the Queen Mother Zhang is, he beautifies the Queen Mother Zhang infinitely in his heart, and believes that She is the most loving mother in the world. Every child, no matter the eldest son who was deposed as a commoner or the youngest son who became an emperor, whether it is the eldest daughter who went to the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River or the second daughter who was dispatched to the bitter cold land in Liaodong , are her sweethearts.

It is natural for the emperor to say this now.In his heart, he really thought that the queen mother was very good, and she would not stop her son and daughter-in-law from being sweet and affectionate just because she was hiding in the hospital bed.

"That's great." Ajiu smiled and leaned on the emperor again.

Brother Ten, during these years of caring for patients, we need to cuddle up to each other.

These are sad times.

"Junior Martial Sister, I forgive you, and I don't mind anymore." The emperor said without thinking.

"Forgive me." Ajiu is so smart, she knew that he meant to forgive the Empress Dowager Zhang, and agreed softly, "Brother Ten, she is the one who gave birth to you and raised you."

That soul-stirring night, the Empress Dowager Zhang must have done something that saddened you.Now that things have changed, her time in this world is running out, forgive me.Forgive her, that is, free yourself.

The emperor hugged Ah Jiu tightly in his arms.

"Father is in a coma. Eldest brother led the troops to press the palace. I commanded the guards to resist and personally supervised the formation with a sword. It was a brotherly duel. If elder brother won, I would die without a place to die, and my father would have no physiology; if I If I win, Dad may be saved and wake up, or maybe he will sleep forever, and the situation will be chaotic. The queen mother must have weighed it over and over again, and decided that Dad would not wake up, and I would not be able to win the final victory. She helped the elder brother, and she decided to help the elder brother. .

Junior Sister, if Dad hadn't suddenly woke up, forced his sick body out of the dormitory, and stood in front of the rebels, maybe he and I would have already..."

The emperor hugged Ajiu even tighter.

"Poor tenth brother." Ajiu felt extremely sympathetic.

It's a cruel thing to fight between brothers. At this time, the queen mother is helping one side, so why should the other side feel so embarrassed?
"...Father wants to execute her quietly, but I don't allow it. I threatened my life to not allow Dad to hurt her. Dad has nothing to do with me, so he agreed angrily. Junior sister, I... I am sorry for her, I have always been sorry for her. "

Ah Jiu understood.

The fat emperor could execute the Empress Dowager Zhang calmly. When she died, she was still the Empress Dowager of the Central Palace, and it would not affect Xiao Shi's becoming the new crown prince at all.However, if he really did this, Xiao Shi would not be able to accept it.

Not only Xiao Shi, any normal person probably cannot be unfeeling towards his biological mother.

"It's all over, Brother Ten." Ajiu said softly, "Brother Ten, it's all over."

The emperor let out an "um" with a thick nasal voice.

When going to Ningshou Palace later, Ajiu would often look at Empress Dowager Zhang with pity and disgust.You have treated Brother Ten like that, and you have the nerve to complain and make all kinds of demands?You abandoned him at the moment of life and death, what kind of injury is this, you can act as if nothing happened, you... It's amazing.

When Empress Dowager Zhang was ill, she had a very bad temper. Later, she often had nightmares.She was often woken up from a dream, her face was pale and panicked, and she looked disgusting and pitiful.

After all, he is an old man.

Ajiu suppressed the resentment in her heart, and comforted her gently, "Queen Mother, I'm here, don't be afraid."

The Empress Dowager Zhang shrank to the corner, looking at Ajiu in horror, "Your Majesty, I dare not, don't kill me, don't kill me."

The fat emperor's gloomy face seemed to be in front of her eyes, and her rough voice seemed to ring in her ears, "If it wasn't for Xiao Shi's sake, I would have deposed you long ago! Mrs. Zhang, do you understand?" I promised Xiao Shi not to kill you, but if you dare to go your own way, I have my own way to make you go silently, but Xiao Shi thinks you died without a problem!"

Empress Dowager Zhang hugged her head and screamed, leaning against the wall desperately, as if this cold wall could protect her.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me quietly, Xiao Shi will be sad!" She shouted incoherently.

Did the emperor's father threaten her?Looking at the appearance of the Empress Dowager Zhang, Ajiu could probably guess why she suddenly became more secure back then.

The fat emperor had indeed promised Xiao Shi not to kill her, but for a scheming emperor, there were hundreds of ways to kill, which could not only kill Empress Dowager Zhang, but also make her look like a natural death.It's really not that difficult.

The fat emperor didn't do this in the end, because of Xiao Shi.

He didn't want Xiao Ten to leave regrets at 01:30.

Having a father like the fat emperor can be regarded as Xiao Shi's greatest luck.

Empress Dowager Zhang spent her last years in this world in a nightmare, which was very painful.When she finally died, Ah Jiu and the children felt relieved.The emperor shed tears sadly, "Mother, you have ascended to the Paradise of Paradise, and from now on, you don't have to suffer any more."

The emperor summoned the best doctors in the world and the best medicinal materials in the world for Queen Mother Zhang.However, no matter how good the medical skills are, no matter how precious the medicinal materials are, the disease cannot be cured, but the life cannot be cured.The Empress Dowager Zhang had no enjoyment in the few months she was lying on the hospital bed. She had a stroke and couldn’t move. She poured down bowl after bowl of bitter medicine, but it didn’t work. It was purely suffering. For herself, it was a relief.

When Empress Dowager Zhang passed away, the emperor kept 27 filial piety for her with the sun instead of the moon.

Neither Princess Ningshouchang nor Princess Fushouchang asked to return to Beijing for the funeral: Princess Ningshouchang had just given birth to a six-pound baby boy. She gave birth at an advanced age and needed to recuperate.Princess Fushouchang is just pregnant, and she has not yet secured her pregnancy, so it is inconvenient for her to travel far.

"Very well, the two elder sisters of Brother Ten, you two are going to give birth and raise children outside, and live in peace." Princess Ning Shouchang and Princess Fushouchang are unlikely to return to Beijing for a few years, and Ajiu is still very willing to see This situation.This is a happy event, very good, very good.

Ah Mu is a bad luck little girl.Not long after she entered the palace, the Empress Dowager Zhang fell ill. How could a child who was only ten years old serve the sick?Although she is older than children of the same age, she is still a child. When Queen Mother Zhang gets angry, she will tremble with fright, and can't sleep after returning to her room at night.Seeing her pitiful, Ajiu ordered her to recuperate in the side hall. The imperial doctor looked at her, said she was frightened, and prescribed a medicine to soothe the nerves.After drinking two doses of medicine, Ah Mu gradually recovered.

Before Empress Dowager Zhang passed away, Ajiu discussed with the emperor, and in the name of Empress Dowager Zhang, Amu was sent back to the Jinxiangbo Mansion, where she was granted the title of Lord of Anyang County and a lot of gold, silver and jewels.

Although the emperor announced it in the name of Empress Dowager Zhang, who doesn't know that Empress Dowager Zhang is no longer sane?We all know the meaning of the emperor.

Duke Yasukuni was very grateful, "Your Majesty is wise."

Jin Xiangbo was complacent, "Your Majesty still misses me as an uncle." He thought it was his own credit.

In a secluded courtyard of Jinxiangbo Mansion, Cao Huiyin sat alone in front of the window, shedding tears of joy.This is the meaning of the emperor, this is all the meaning of the emperor, he is very good to A Mu, how thoughtful he is for A Mu.

"Because Amu is my daughter, right?" Cao Huiyin had a dreamy smile on her no longer beautiful and increasingly haggard face, "It's just that he and I are not destined to be together. If we are destined to be together, he must Will be fine with me."

It's a sweet dream.Such a beautiful dream supported Cao Huiyin to finish her bleak life.
