Chapter 453 Xiao Yuheng's Scheme
These three people were rescued by the Queen Mother on the road when she followed the Emperor to the battlefield after she entered the palace.
In the past, the Emperor of Wei who committed suicide was actually once a powerful man and had galloped on the battlefield without fear.
When the Queen Mother first entered the palace as a concubine, she was fascinated by the Emperor's grace. She thought that she and Doctor Wen were just friends and they were far from loving each other, so she was very calm and devoted to being a concubine in the Emperor's harem.
The Wei Dynasty was in chaos, with enemies everywhere and the borders always turbulent, so the Emperor had to go to the battlefield in person.
When the emperor went to war, he took Concubine Duan with him, who had some kung fu skills. The empress dowager at that time was dignified, virtuous, and outstanding in appearance, so the emperor gave her the title of Concubine Duan. Concubine
Duan followed the emperor in his battles. Wherever she passed by, she would share some of her money and food with the people. When she met sick or injured civilians and soldiers, she would do her best to take care of them.
In this way, after Xiao Yin ascended the throne, she assisted the emperor, managed the harem, and helped the then empress Lin Rou to manage the harem. The people were convinced. Although they were jealous and Xiao Yin's methods were cruel, they were convinced by the empress dowager.
Therefore, the Wei Dynasty was able to stabilize quickly in the chaos.
At first, when the Queen Mother passed by the southeastern border, she saved several girls. These girls were about to be captured and sold, and one of them was even beaten to death by the buyer because she refused to obey.
Concubine Duan saved them and took good care of them, so these girls were willing to follow her wholeheartedly.
At first, Concubine Duan just arranged for them to work in a nunnery outside the city, at least there was food to eat and they could live a good life. Later
, the harem was in turmoil, and the queen and concubines in the palace reached out to her because of her favor, thinking that their misfortune was a small matter, but if their two children were harmed, it would be a big deal.
So, Concubine Duan began to make arrangements. She first secretly asked her father and brother to send people to take a few girls out to practice martial arts. After they had practiced martial arts very well, she tried to get those girls into the palace.
She did not let those girls come to her palace, and she did not let them
make it public after Xiao Yin ascended the throne. Without activating them, those girls also kept themselves low-key and even never mentioned anything about the Queen Mother.
After Nanny Qin was sent to the Clothing Bureau by the Queen Mother, they had not shown any familiarity for a few days there, but these women all knew that Nanny Qin was someone close to the Queen Mother.
Just now, Nanny Qin called them over, saying that they were here to make clothes. After all, every year at a certain season, the Queen Mother would order people to make clothes. In the past year, she has called people from the Clothing Bureau to come more frequently, but most of them are to make clothes for baby Ruoxi.
"You were brought to the palace from the southeast. After all, you still have to go back and take a look at those places." The Queen Mother said.
"Queen Mother, we are not going back to take a look. We just want to help the Queen Mother do things well. There is no home for us, no relatives, nothing in that place!"
"Yes, Queen Mother, we just want to complete the task well!"
Several women said together. When they were first rescued, they were only thirteen or fourteen years old. Now, more than twenty years have passed, and they have all become middle-aged women.
"I was thinking that I had delayed you. You have been in this palace for more than 20 years. You have worked so hard!" said the Queen Mother.
"Queen Mother, we are your servants in life and in death..." "Bah!
What are you talking about? I just asked you to accompany Concubine Xian to take care of the little princess. Why are you still saying such things? Don't talk nonsense!" said Nanny Qin immediately.
"Yes, we won't say anything more!" Several women immediately kowtowed and said.
"Chunxiang, Qiuyue, Xiayu, the three of you, assist Concubine Xian well and help me protect the little princess!" said the Queen Mother.
"Yes!" Several women nodded.
Concubine Xian did not stay any longer. She went to see her son that night and talked with him for a while. Then she changed into a maid's clothes and went out through the back door.
The Queen Mother sat in Fushou Palace, looking at the sky outside.
"Don't worry, Queen Mother. It's not a good thing to worry so much all the time. The little princess will be fine." Nanny Gui came over and said.
Nanny Qin and Nanny Gui summoned the palace maids to soak the Queen Mother's feet and rub her shoulders.
"Aqin, go and ask someone to call Heng'er over. I'll ask him about his homework!" said the Queen Mother.
"Queen Mother, you..." Nanny Gui thought about it and decided to call the second prince over.
In fact, the second prince is the eldest prince. After all, the second prince is the real prince of His Majesty the Emperor, and the previous one...
Soon, Xiao Yuheng came, holding a book in his hand. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Grandmother, I have memorized it, I have memorized it!"
"Well, let me see!" The Queen Mother smiled and took the book from Xiao Yuheng's hand, saying: "Come on, I will test you and see your level!"
In Fushou Palace, in front of the Queen Mother, Doctor Wen was sitting on a low stool, and he was checking the Queen Mother's pulse.
A white gauze covered the Queen Mother's wrist, and Doctor Wen was checking the Queen Mother's pulse very seriously.
Xiao Yuheng stepped forward, handed the book in his hand to Doctor Wen, and said, "Let Doctor Wen rely on me, I don't care!"
"Hahaha, Your Highness, don't scare me, I am just a doctor, nothing else!" Doctor Wen said immediately. "
Who said you are a doctor? When you were young, you were also good at martial arts. You wanted to go to the border and be a general!" The Queen Mother said with a smile.
"This was decades ago. Now, I guess you can't even hold a knife with this hand!" Doctor Wen said, stood up, and said, "Queen Mother, I will prescribe you a tranquilizer. Drink it and go to bed early at night. Don't stay up late like this!"
"Grandmother, do you want Heng'er to stay here with you?" Xiao Yuheng asked.
"No, go back and take care of yourself. You still have to deal with state affairs tomorrow morning, so you should focus on state affairs."
The Queen Mother said. "Okay, Grandmother, when will Lin'er come back?" Xiao Yuheng asked.
Xiao Ruilin was taken away by Madam Taifu these days. The child played very well with Madam Taifu. Besides, Madam Taifu is still the Queen Mother's concubine.
