Shao family has a daughter

Chapter 120 Love Between Husband and Wife (4)
Princess Wuyang answered, "Yes, I also heard that there is a Ganoderma lucidum that is specially used to treat epidemics. Oh, it must be very rare." Some doubts, "Xianhui, you actually used it to make a pillow."

"No." Xianhui explained: "It's just that the leaves look like Ganoderma lucidum, and they are not expensive."

Princess Wuyang nodded, "I see."

Empress Dowager Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, "No matter what, as long as the emperor's illness can be cured."

"Yes." Xianhui said again: "My daughter-in-law has already instructed the imperial physicians not to disclose the emperor's condition to the outside world, so I just said that I am sick. I am just worried that if someone becomes suspicious and makes a movement, I hope that the queen will be watched more. Some."

Empress Dowager Zhou hurriedly said, "Naturally."

As far as she is concerned, she definitely doesn't want her youngest son to have trouble, and she doesn't want the throne to change again.

Princess Wuyang's heart moved when she heard this.

No wonder the little brother has always been in love with Shao Xianhui, there is no way, who made her beautiful and intelligent, and caught the emperor's eyes?Right now, it is the emperor's lucky star. When the epidemic is cured, she, the empress, will be in the limelight.

——Some people are lucky.

But this thought flashed by, and more attention was paid to the emperor's health.In all fairness, compared to the mediocre and incompetent big brother, I prefer the young and promising little brother, and hope that he will be the emperor, so that the country and society will be governed in an orderly manner.

And if something happened to the emperor right now, there would definitely be chaos, so of course Yijing should not move.

"It's okay, Queen Mother." Gao Chen comforted him, "Just take the medicine from Yao Xianhui."

"Be careful." The Empress Dowager Zhou looked at her son worriedly, said many words of concern, and gave many instructions, even Xian Hui confessed to her several times before leading Princess Wuyang away.

In the dormitory, Fu became quiet again.

"Xianhui." Gao Chen asked, "Aren't you afraid?"

"Naturally."

Gao Chen's eyes were deep, and he asked again: "Are you worried that I will die?"

Isn't he worried?Xianhui thinks Gao Chen is weird, who in this world is not afraid of death?Besides, isn't it normal for a wife to worry about her husband?No matter how many conflicts I have with him, I will not expect him to die.Even when she was the most resentful at the beginning, she just wanted to stay away from him and never see him again.

But right now, he is not in a hurry at all, he must be suffering from the epidemic!

Gao Chen waved, "Xianhui, come here." Instead of pushing her away like before, he pulled her into his arms, and whispered a few words in his ear, "...So, don't worry."

Xianhui stared at him with wide eyes, "You mean...?"

"Yes." Gao Chen smiled, "I didn't intend to tell you at first, but I was afraid that you would be overwhelmed and say that I would keep everything from you. As for the queen mother, don't reveal the rumors, let alone Wuyang." He Her smile was a bit bitter, "Sometimes, I have to make a decision, even my mother and sister have to hide it."

As a last resort?Xian Hui chuckled, so it was a last resort to use herself as a bait to lure King Yan.

——This is the thorn in her heart that cannot be pulled out.

Because that incident was not only about Gao Chen's emotional deceit, but also about his personal safety. If the matter fails, if he dies, or even if he is humiliated by King Yan, the consequences will be unimaginable !

"Xianhui." Gao Chen looked at her with a smile, and said slowly, "Guess what you were thinking? You were thinking, how could I be willing to let you be the bait, right? Yes, how could I be willing." He reached out and brushed her hair, "Little fool, things are not what you think at all."

"What's that like?" Xianhui asked flickeringly.

Although the news from Fengyi Palace was that the queen was ill, there were still gossip circulating secretly.

——The emperor is infected with the epidemic!
This news flew out of the palace as if it had grown wings.

When it reached the ears of King Gao Qi of Chu, it only took half a day.His complexion changed drastically, and he immediately summoned his staff to discuss how to deal with the matter. The atmosphere was tense, "The emperor is sick, and it is still infected with the epidemic."

"If the emperor..." someone pointed to the sky, implying that the emperor would collapse, "at that time, the Supreme Emperor will naturally regain power, and Prince Gong will be the crown prince, so the prince will have a chance to escape from danger."

"That's right!" Another counselor said: "The emperor keeps procrastinating, but he just refuses to clarify the time when the prince will go to the domain. Even if the Supreme Emperor himself asked, it was only a spring. It's hard to say if this is a perfunctory word from the emperor. .Furthermore, in the past few months, there will be some accidents if they are not guaranteed, which is unpredictable." The man brushed his beard, "So this epidemic came in time."

"Confused! Confused!" A skinny counselor jumped up angrily, "Don't you think about it, if the emperor is really ill, what will he do? Will he still keep the prince? Don't forget, queen The empress is the emperor's darling, for the safety of the empress in the future, the emperor will definitely get rid of the prince first!"

"What?!" Gao Qi was shocked when he heard the words, and after thinking about it, he felt that the words made sense.After a while of panic, he hurriedly asked, "Then based on what you've seen, how should this king deal with it now?"

A stern look flashed in the thin counselor's eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Wait for the opportunity, and we will never have future troubles!"

Then, as the days passed, the emperor stayed in Fengyi Palace and did not leave, and the gossip spread even more violently.

It is said that the emperor is affectionate to the empress and never leaves her.It is also said that the emperor is afraid that he is sick, so as to deceive others.The Empress Dowager Zhou knew the news repeatedly, and even punished a young maid and two young eunuchs, but it was useless, the rumors still spread, and the more they spread, the more vicious they became.

When it came to the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, neither Gao Chen nor Xian Hui attended, causing panic in the palace.Now, there is only one layer of veil left in the rumors that has not been pierced.

"How could this happen?" The Empress Dowager Zhou came to visit and complained to Xianhui repeatedly in the outer hall, "You didn't, what kind of fairy ganoderma you brought, does it have miraculous effects? How come the emperor didn't see any effect after taking it?!"

Xianhui also had a distressed look on her face, "My daughter-in-law doesn't know, and the imperial doctors can't help."

Sitting in such a sad city, even the Supreme Emperor sent someone to inquire.In order to avoid the taboo, Prince Gong only asked Princess Gong to ask a question, and he didn't even see Xian Hui, and he didn't come to inquire after that.

In the air is the precarious and dangerous atmosphere.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty..." Nanny Li ran in in panic, her face was pale and she said, "The big thing is bad, it's bad! There are people outside...someone..." as if being strangled by someone , said with difficulty: "Conspiracy!"

"Treason?!" Xianhui and the Queen Mother Zhou said in unison, and their expressions changed.

"Yes." Li Nanny said in horror: "I heard that the king of Chu colluded with Wucheng's army and Ma Si, and Liu Taichang, who was in charge of the North Palace Gate, led the army to attack all the way in, and now he has entered the palace!" Trembling, "Niang Niang! Quickly let the emperor order people to kill the rebels."

Xianhui got up in a hurry and wanted to go in, but her steps stopped.

The Empress Dowager Zhou was startled when she saw this, and then annoyed: "It's this time, are you still afraid that the emperor's epidemic will infect you? If Gao Qi's rebellious son succeeds in rebelling, we will die without a place to die today!"

"No, Queen Mother." Xianhui shook her head sadly, and said with tears: "The emperor is already seriously ill and unconscious. My daughter-in-law didn't dare to tell you before, because she was afraid that you would not be able to bear it, but... It's useless to go in and call the emperor right now." As if the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the more he thought about it, the sadder he became, holding his face and crying loudly.

The Empress Dowager Zhou sat softly in the chair and lost her strength.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty..." After a short time, Yuzi ran in again, crying, "I can already hear the voice of the rebels outside, the sound is piercing, I guess... we have already reached the gate of the inner palace .”

"So fast..." Xianhui murmured.

Empress Dowager Zhou put the maid's hand on her hands and got up, walked to the door and listened, and sure enough... bursts of murderous noise came faintly from the sky, like waves of reminders! "Heaven is going to kill me!" She turned around suddenly in panic, "Since today is the day of death, then... let me take another look at Brother Chen..."

"Who is it?!" Outside the hall, a court lady exclaimed loudly.

"Reporting to the emperor..." A calm and powerful voice came, scaring the female family members of Fengyi Palace to death, but the man did not barge in, but said outside: "The rebels forced the palace to rebel, sir! Leading General Liang led the imperial guards to kill the enemy, and now he has already beheaded the anti-king Gaoqi! The rebels outside are leaderless and chaotic, and they have all been punished."

"Punishment? Is it all?" The Queen Mother Zhou said pleasantly: "Gao Qi's rebellious son is dead?!"

"Yes."

The Empress Dowager Zhou was overjoyed, then turned around and shouted inside: "Your Majesty, did you hear that? That rebel Gao Qi has already been beheaded, and the rebels have already been punished."

Xian Hui stood up and said excitedly, "This is really great."

The Empress Dowager Zhou wept with joy, she escaped from the earth-shattering danger, as if the gate of hell closed and turned around, but tears fell down instead, "Okay, okay." In the night wind, there was a smell of blood being transmitted, not so It smells bad.

Xianhui looked at the Queen Mother, as if seeing her former self.

Turn around and tell Gao Chen, that's it, keep it from the Queen Mother forever.

At dawn the next day, the sun still rose slowly.

The entire Fengyi Palace didn't sleep last night, and when they woke up this morning, they couldn't help but feel exhausted and happy after the catastrophe, and each of them had kindness on their faces.Those little maids and eunuchs who usually fight each other, when they meet each other, they speak and behave with a bit of tolerance.

After all, being angry for a while is nothing, living is the best.

"Your Majesty." Mother Li came in and replied, "I heard that the rebels attacked all the way in yesterday. It was fine at first, but... when it came to the gate of the inner palace..." Lowered her voice, "The two guards beside Gao Qi suddenly Rebellion, he actually cut off Gao Qi's head himself!"

"What?!" Xianhui's eyes were shocked, it was hard to believe, and her heart was shaken for a long time.

Because Gao Chen said to himself yesterday, what is the way Gao Qi died today, even if Jin Ye missed back then, King Yan would have died the same way as Gao Qi!That is to say, there are spies around King Yan, so they can't accomplish anything, can't rebel, let alone hurt himself.

"Your Majesty." Nanny Li said joyfully, "It seems that the Emperor is always on guard and has a plan in place."

Xianhui couldn't listen to it, and was filled with a feeling of irony.

After making trouble for a long time, the shocking danger in his imagination, Gao Chen's betrayal, and the panic of the epidemic were all the scenes he carefully woven.That's right, why did I forget that he was a great general who had been in and out of the battlefield several times in his previous life, and he was the emperor who calculated others to ascend to the throne in this life, so why would he deviate from his calculations!
In this way, my hatred is in vain.

——I was tricked by him from beginning to end.

Hate it, no, he didn't mean to harm himself.Blame it, you can't say that he is wrong, he said, he has his helplessness and difficulties.But what about your own heart?What about your own feelings?As long as people are fine, can the heart and feelings be ignored?If this is the case, then he is a bodhisattva of clay sculpture.

Because Gao Qi conspired against him and died, the Supreme Emperor naturally had nothing to say, and even Gao Qi's remnant party was wiped out.As for Gao Qi's family members, his throne was abolished, and all the children of the family members became ordinary people, and everything was relegated to the remote Lingnan land.

As for Gao Chen, it seems that surviving a catastrophe will bring blessings, and his "illness" is getting better day by day.

The Empress Dowager Zhou recited Amitabha happily, but Xianhui's heart was as calm as water.

At the beginning of February, Gao Chen's illness was finally completely cured, and the epidemic in the capital was also slowly decreasing.Spring is coming to the earth, full of vitality, in the fresh green color of early spring, everything seems to be getting better.

The palace was full of joy and happiness.

The only thing that is not harmonious is probably the delicate relationship between the emperor and empress.

Xianhui now treats Gao Chen with equal eyebrows and respect as a guest, and her demeanor and speech are much calmer.No matter when, there is always a decent smile on the face, and it is difficult to see the ups and downs of emotions like a child in the past, and gradually have the dignity and grace of a mother.

Every time Gao Chen looks at her current appropriateness, he always feels lost.

But there is no way to be in a hurry.

Some feelings can only be made up by slowly repairing later.

"Your Majesty, Mrs. Liang Guo please see me."

Because Xianhui became the empress, Shao Yuanheng was made a Liang Guogong by Emperor Enrong, and Mrs. Liang Guo was the Shen family. Because of her special status, she could naturally enter the palace to see her at any time.

"Mother." Xianhui now only saw her mother, her smile was a little more sincere, "I was just saying that I was idle, and I wanted someone to invite you into the palace to talk, so here you are." He said again: " In addition, I have thought about it, when the spring is warm, let my sister and the Song family go to Beijing, and my brother and his family will also come, so we can have a happy reunion."

"That's easy to say." The purpose of Shen's entering the palace today was not to talk about her family, but to drive out the palace people, and whispered something personal to her daughter, "I heard that in March this spring, there will be a big selection of beautiful women to enter the palace. gone."

"Great pick girl." Xianhui sighed softly, "I know."

"My son." Shen was a little anxious, "Don't be confused about this matter, you have to make careful plans early. The previous Ning Yuyao made such a fuss, and there will be another Zhang Yuyao, Li Yuyao, but there will be trouble in the future." It's up to you." Can't help but sigh, "Although you are a queen, none of the women in the harem of this dynasty have family background, and you have no children, so you don't have any more support than other women."

Xianhui sighed, "Of course my daughter knows these truths, but... the selection depends entirely on the emperor, and I can't stop it."

But Shen said: "So, when the time comes for the draft, you should pay close attention to it. You must choose a few honest ones. You must not want the kind of vicious and restless ones. Besides, you must not be too soft-hearted, and you must not be like Just like Ning Yuyao, let her bewitching emperor bewilder you and cause trouble for you."

honest?Xian Hui chuckled, "How can there be honest people in this world? Honest, but there is no chance to be dishonest."

Shen Shi was startled when she heard the words.

When the mother and daughter were in a stalemate, they heard the palace man outside say: "The emperor is here!"
