Chapter 239 Why would you choose to die if you are a good prince?
Hearing the inner voice of baby Ruoxi, the queen mother's eyes darkened slightly.
Someone wanted to harm her, she had known this for a long time.
Before entering the palace, she knew that this was a place where people would be eaten.
However, for the safety of her father and brother, she could not disobey the order.
Before entering the palace, she had already started taking weak poisons. After entering the palace, what she had to do every day was to make her body able to resist various poisons and protect herself from various calculations.
When she was pregnant with two children, she was trembling all day long and never relaxed at all.
It was also because of this that the poison in the early years and the fearful life all day long led to her severe physical weakness in the later period.
In the past few years, she has had headaches every day.
However, half a year ago, after Xier was born, her headaches gradually eased.
Moreover, Doctor Wen examined her pulse several times and said that she was fine, which made her feel relieved.
However, when Xier touched her with her little hand, he said that she was poisoned.
This made the empress dowager even more angry.
She was on guard every day, and there were old people serving her around her, but she still gave someone a chance.
"Can Xier eat complementary food?" The empress dowager asked Xiao Yin.
"Yes, Xier used to let Nanny Jin make some rice porridge for her to eat. Now, she can drink chicken soup and eat some minced chicken. Xier, you are very greedy." The emperor looked at the little girl and said with a smile.
The Queen Mother was poisoned again. Seeing that the Queen Mother's spirit and expression were completely normal, it seemed that the poison was mostly light, or this poison, like Yue'er's poisoning before, was slow.
"Okay, Ah Qin, go to the small kitchen and make chicken soup. Make it well for me and make it fragrant, so that our hard-working little Xi'er can take good care of it." The Queen Mother immediately instructed Nanny Qin beside her. "Yes,
I will go and tell the kitchen now, oh no, I will go myself!" Nanny Qin saw that the Queen Mother glanced at her, and she immediately smiled, bowed, and ran away.
"The Queen Mother likes Xi'er more than she does." The Queen Mother said with a smile.
"Of course, this is Yue'er's child, I naturally like him, and besides, I haven't treated Ting'er and Heng'er harshly, have I?" The Queen Mother said, turning her head to look at the Queen. '
"Of course, mother has never treated Ting'er harshly. I just think that mother is kind-hearted and a good mother." The queen immediately stood up and said.
"Yes, the queen is right. Mother is very kind." Xiao Yin nodded, because he saw that his mother was not very happy, especially she didn't like talking to the queen.
So Xiao Yin turned around and said, "The queen is pregnant and should have a good rest. Don't stay here with her. I will take Xi'er and mother to play!"
"Yes, then I will go back and rest first." Originally, the queen insisted on staying for a while, but seeing that the queen mother and the emperor were not very friendly to her, she stood up, squatted down to salute, and slowly walked out.
After the empress had been out for a long time, the queen mother turned around and looked at the emperor, saying: "When you have time, pay more attention to the empress, and also, ask someone to check the prime minister." "
What the queen mother meant..." Xiao Yin looked at the queen mother with deep eyes, and he subconsciously glanced at Xiao Xier.
Seeing Xiao Xier eating her fingers with a well-behaved look, he couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth slightly, but then put it down again.
For half a year, he always looked forward to hearing Xiao Xier's voice. No matter what he did, he expected Xiao Xier to give an answer.
He didn't know when he cultivated this feeling in himself.
Thinking of him, since he was sensible, he was warned by his mother that he must learn to be independent, learn to handle everything by himself, and learn to avoid all calculations and dangers. As a result, in the end, he actually had a baby.
"I know that before you left, you arranged a mutual restraint, which is a good thing. The old guys in the court are confronting and restraining each other, but there are still some people who want to take risks with ulterior motives." The Queen Mother said. "
Well, it's just like the Queen and the Prime Minister. It's just a pity for my cousin. He could have been a prince and a prince in the future. If he was smart and wise, he could have been a crown prince and waited for his uncle to die. It would not be bad to be a good emperor, but... why did he want to die?"
Baby Ruoxi bit her fingers and thought about it. She felt that it was not bad to be a female devil who concentrated on cultivation. This kind of life in the palace, with intrigues and life and death, was simply not a life for human beings.
The Queen Mother's expression froze. She slowly straightened Xi'er's clothes,
but her heart was filled with shock. Although she, as the Queen Mother, should not interfere in the affairs of the previous dynasty, Xiao Yin was her son, so she had to pay some attention to him.
When the Emperor left, he let his two sons lead several subordinates respectively. The eldest son was a civil official, and the second son was a military official. It seemed that they were living in peace and would not interfere with each other. However, the Queen Mother knew that the Queen was secretly doing something.
"In troubled times, civil officials are useless. This is what the eunuch Xiao Xiazi of Kunning Palace told the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother said this to the eldest prince."
Therefore, the Queen Mother knew that the Queen was still a little wild.
The Emperor looked normal.
He was not particularly jealous of Xiao Yuting. After
all, he had experienced the killing of his brothers to get to the throne. How could he trust others for no reason, not even his own son?
Because, three years ago, the empress and the prime minister looked down on him as an unfavored prince, and Lin Wenzhen, who was then the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, felt that he had no chance of succeeding to the throne. He even sided with others among the princes who were competing for the throne.
It was only after he came back from the border and led his troops into the imperial city that Lin Wenzhen realized the situation and quickly changed his mind.
In the past three years, the prime minister has been restless and often regards himself as the father-in-law of the emperor. If it were not for the kind pressure from the imperial teacher, the old man would have died.
"Mother!" A coquettish voice came from outside.
Immediately, a beautiful figure caught the queen mother's eye.
Looking at her daughter's bright complexion, the queen mother's eyes were full of smiles.
"It's good to go out for a walk!" said the queen mother.
"Xi'er!" Seeing her daughter, Xiaoyue immediately came forward and stretched out her hand: "Well, this time I go out for a walk, I'm in a really good mood!"
This morning, she listened to the people in the palace constantly reporting to her that they were not in the imperial city. In the end, she also heard something.
The Shangguan family was destroyed. Originally, the imperial concubine had been detained in the cell, and Xu Ruzhen and Xu Shilang's family were all in prison. As a result, news came from Su County that Shangguan Jinghong assassinated the emperor and the princess. So, the prime minister was furious and ordered people to beat all the people in the Shangguan family to death.
