Chapter 782 The Emperor Is Cheating (Twenty)
In the early morning, upon hearing the news that Yongshou Palace was under house arrest, Queen Mother Wang still felt a little "regretful" -
"I originally wanted to add fuel to the fire of Mrs. Xie and let our little emperor experience the stupidity of his own mother. Unexpectedly, Min Huang was decisive and directly locked Mrs. Xie up."
When Queen Mother Wang mentioned Concubine Xie, there was obvious sarcasm on her face.
Such a stupid woman, if she hadn't been pregnant, would have been buried in the deep palace long ago.
How could she become a noble concubine dowager, let alone have the delusion of wanting to be equal to the empress dowager.
"I heard that the Queen went to Yongshou Palace first—"
Ah Xian took the sweet white porcelain teacup from the little palace maid, felt the temperature of the cup with her fingertips, and made sure there was no problem before she personally brought it to the Queen Mother's lips.
The Queen Mother lowered her head, took a sip, then raised her head with a slightly restrained smile, "The Queen is here too, no wonder!"
No wonder Min Huang dealt with his mother so quickly. Queen Gu must have contributed to this.
"This Gu really has a strange and delicate mind."
"She was also 'devoted' to Min Huang. This couple worked together to drive me out of the court. Gu played a great role!"
"...Alas, I just don't know how Min Huang will 'repay' Gu after he takes control of the court."
Who is not a young couple? Who has not supported each other? The Queen Mother herself almost died in order to save the late Emperor, and she completely lost her ability to bear children.
As a result, the only thing the late emperor gave her was the position of queen.
emotion?
Ha, the companionship they once had is now a joke in the harem.
In the face of power, they are worthless.
Apart from other things, was the "accident" of the prince really just an accident? At that time, the relationship between the queen mother and the late emperor had entered a "mutually cold" mode, and the Wang family had already begun to prepare to support the prince to ascend the throne.
Then, the prince accidentally fell off his horse.
Ha, ha, what an "accident"? I knew clearly that the death of the crown prince was closely related to the late emperor, but I couldn't get angry.
She didn't even dare to express her doubts about the late emperor.
She could only investigate secretly and retaliate by making the late emperor "die of illness".
They are also married and have been together for nearly twenty years.
But in the end, they ended up on opposite sides because of power and desire.
In this harem, the father is unkind, the wife is unvirtuous, and each one of them is a monster that looks bright on the outside but is filthy on the inside!
"In fact, Your Majesty has already begun to 'repay' me, hasn't he? The Gu family has two dukes, and the whole family is rich and noble—"
Ah Xian sensed the Queen Mother's fleeting loneliness, resentment and other negative emotions. She did not comfort her directly, but instead jokingly talked about the incident that happened half a year ago.
"Yes! Min Huang is much more ruthless than his father!"
Half a year ago, when Min Huang conferred the title of Duke of Zheng on Mr. Gu, he had not yet taken power.
The emperor's party and the empress dowager's party are also in fierce confrontation.
Min Huang suddenly gave the Gu family this supreme honor. On the surface, it seemed that he wanted to "stimulate" the Gu family to step up their efforts to help the emperor rule the country.
In fact, a clue was laid in advance.
From then on, Min Huang had already begun planning to "overpraise" the Gu family.
Before successfully crossing the river, he was already planning to demolish the bridge.
Tsk tsk, even more mean than the late emperor.
The late emperor waited until the Wang family became powerful and formed a large group of foreign relatives that threatened the rule of the imperial power before he took action.
Of course, the late emperor was not soft-hearted or indecisive.
But he is more powerful and ruthless than Min Huang.
If he didn't make a move, it would be fine. But once he did, he hit the nail on the head - the Wang family's biggest support was the prince! If he killed the prince, the Wang family's high building would instantly lose its foundation.
The death of her only son was a fatal blow to the Queen Mother as a mother.
When the tragic news of the prince falling off his horse came, the Queen Mother vomited blood.
After the prince's funeral, the queen mother was bedridden for nearly a year, and strands of white hair were mixed in her black hair.
The Queen Mother aged nearly ten years and was almost half dead! If it weren't for Princess Ankang who stayed by her bed every day and cried constantly, the Queen Mother might not have survived.
"Cruel! You really are cruel enough!"
Awakened by her daughter's crying, the Queen Mother gritted her teeth and cursed the late emperor in her heart while beginning to prepare for revenge.
The Queen Mother threw out the bait of "wanting to adopt a prince", which directly muddied the waters in the harem.
The late emperor could only watch his own sons fighting each other for the identity of "legitimate son".
Those years were definitely the bloodiest and most chaotic years in the capital of Dajing Dynasty.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Five or six adult princes, some of them "plotted rebellion", some of them were killed by accident, or some of them were killed in a palace coup... In the end, the ninth prince was chosen. In addition to some of his conditions meeting the requirements of the queen mother, it was also because -
All the princes who ranked before him fell to the ground with a bang.
Only he and the seventh prince who was born with a disability had grown up. Although there were little princes later, they were all too young.
The country depends on the eldest prince. The late emperor suddenly fell seriously ill and needs an older successor who can support the country.
The late emperor was also afraid that the new emperor would be too young and the Min family's kingdom would fall into the hands of the Wang family.
“…Just Jiulang!”
Even if the late emperor looked down on Min Huang, the invisible prince, he had no choice but to choose him today.
The emperor and empress reached a rare consensus, and Min Huang was successfully enthroned as the crown prince.
Min Huang had been the crown prince for less than three months when the previous emperor passed away.
When he died, Min Huang was guarding by his bed. It was unknown what the father and son said to each other, but the emperor passed away with a smile on his face.
"What else could it be? I guess the late emperor knew at that time that Jiu Lang, whom he had ignored for more than ten years, was actually a wolf cub pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger!"
"What a 'mediocre and incompetent' Ninth Prince! Even I was deceived by him."
After Min Huang ascended the throne, he rejected the Queen Mother's arrangement for the first time and forced a marriage with the Gu family. From that moment on, the Queen Mother knew that she had made a mistake.
She mistook the wolf cub for a dog.
It is precisely because she realizes her mistakes that the Queen Mother is so strong.
She held on to government affairs tightly, and would not let go no matter what.
pity--
"Gu, oh Gu, you are so devoted to Min Huang, but your fate in the future may be worse than mine!"
Looking in the direction of Anyi Palace, a hint of coldness flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes.
She would never sympathize with the Gu family. It was her own choice and she had no regrets.
Since you have chosen to help Min Huang, don't blame me for dealing with you too.
"No! In fact, I don't even need to target her deliberately. I just need to expose that matter——"
Three years ago, Min Huang did not listen to the Queen Mother's arrangement and refused to make Wang's daughter the queen, so the Queen Mother began to make preparations.
She sent out the Wang family's assassins to investigate not only Min Huang and Queen Gu, but also Concubine Xie.
Then, the Queen Mother had a surprise -
"Who would have thought that a fool like Xie would have such a mind and courage!"
