Chapter 105 The Queen Mother Has a New Daughter
"What are you talking about, Queen Mother? How could His Majesty joke about his own dragon body?"
The news that came this morning was that His Majesty was really ill.
The only remaining imperial physician in the palace has been guarding in the Purple Palace. It seems that the emperor is seriously ill.
But the Queen Mother didn't look distressed at all.
"I won't go, and he won't restore Yizhi's position as Grand Tutor. I won't bow my head first."
He is as stubborn as a little child, and even Madam Rong feels sorry for the emperor.
He is the Queen Mother’s biological son.
"That porridge..."
“No!”
Madam Rong was helpless as the Queen Mother was still so stubborn and refused to listen.
"Go and call the imperial concubine. I have something to ask her."
"yes."
Concubine Yun came with tear marks on her face, and it was obvious that she had just cried.
The Queen Mother waved lovingly, and those who didn't know would have thought this was her own daughter.
"Yuxiang, come to my place."
Concubine Yun stepped forward, her expression of grievance instantly bursting out, tears bursting like a dam: "Mother!"
"Good boy, don't cry. Sit down."
Concubine Yun forced herself to stop crying, wiped her tears, and sat down carefully.
"Mother, please forgive me for my impoliteness."
Madam Rong welcomed Concubine Yun and stepped aside.
The title of "Queen Mother" can only be used by Your Majesty, the Eldest Princess, the Regent and the Queen. The Empress Dowager has been asking Concubine Yun to be called "Queen Mother" for so many years, and her favoritism is too obvious.
The queen was forced to go to the Buddhist temple and would not come out unless necessary.
You know, the Queen is the Queen Mother's own niece.
Even her own niece is not as good as Yun Yizi's daughter. I really don't know what the Queen Mother is thinking.
The Queen Mother patted Concubine Yun's hand:
"Don't be so formal with me. Your father is seriously injured. How can you not be sad? I understand."
"How is your father? The emperor really went too far this time."
They spoke as if the emperor was very cruel and their words were full of dissatisfaction with the emperor.
"Father is awake."
"Are you really awake?"
The Queen Mother was overjoyed: "Amitabha, it's good that you wake up, it's good that you wake up!"
"But... my father is living a life worse than death. He lost an arm, can no longer serve as an official, and was stripped of his title of Grand Tutor. How is he going to live the rest of his life?"
It can be said that his integrity is lost in his later years.
If I were just injured, no one would say anything if I gave up the title of Taifu.
But my father was stripped of his title by His Majesty, doesn't that mean he made a mistake and is not worthy of it?
Concubine Yun was really sad.
Even though my father did not have the title of Taifu, he was still the Minister of the Central Secretariat, which could be said to be second only to the Regent.
Now that he has lost an arm, he can no longer keep his position as the Minister of the Secretariat, and he will definitely not be able to attend court anymore.
What should I do if my son hasn’t become the crown prince yet?
The Queen Mother did not think too much: "As long as you are alive, everything will come back to normal."
Concubine Yun pretended not to understand and asked, "Will you come back?"
The Queen Mother said in a resounding voice: "I promise you, I will."
Concubine Yun knelt down to express her gratitude: "Thank you, mother!"
She inadvertently knew the Queen Mother's feelings for her father, but she never dared to show it.
Today, he also intentionally revealed his father's miserable condition so that the Queen Mother would find a way to restore his father's title of Grand Tutor.
"Get up quickly. I have always treated you as my daughter. You must take care of yourself. Otherwise, your father will be worried when he finds out. He will blame me and the emperor for not taking good care of you."
"Well, Xiang'er will listen to mother."
"But mother, you also need to take care of yourself. You should eat something. If you are hungry, His Majesty and Xiang'er will be worried."
And he told Rong Mama: "Go and bring another bowl of porridge, I will feed my mother."
We can’t let the relationship between the Queen Mother and His Majesty become strained, otherwise our son will be in even worse trouble.
Madam Rong was extremely grateful. It was still Concubine Yun who had the solution. She gave the Empress Dowager a way out, and the Empress Dowager would definitely follow her lead.
As expected, the Queen Mother smiled and patted her hands: "Xiang'er is still considerate, why aren't you my daughter?"
They looked so intimate, like a mother and daughter, and were seen by the eldest princess outside the door.
Rong Mama came back with the porridge and bowed quickly after seeing it: "Greetings, Princess."
"The princess won't go in?"
The eldest princess' face turned pale: "My mother has a new daughter, so I guess my biological daughter is insignificant, so I won't go in and get in the way."
This was said so loudly that the Empress Dowager and Concubine Yun in the palace could hear it.
Concubine Yun stood up in fear: "Mother, is the princess angry with me?"
The Queen Mother's expression was extremely ugly: "Ignore her, she has a bad temper."
"But..."
"Just sit still. You are so filial that you came to persuade me to have a meal. But she only came to see me after two days. She is as cruel as the emperor."
The Queen Mother was also very dissatisfied with the eldest princess. She shared the same opinion with the Emperor and did not consider her as a mother at all.
It is said that a daughter is her mother's warm and cozy little cotton-padded jacket, but her little cotton-padded jacket has always been leaking.
"The princess probably came to see you right after she got the news."
"snort..."
The Queen Mother's tone clearly showed her disbelief.
Concubine Yun stopped talking and fed the Empress Dowager porridge spoonful by spoonful, with a smug look in her eyes.
What does the eldest princess do in front of the Queen Mother? She's not as good-looking as me.
The eldest princess, who was not far away, became a little stiff. Her mother actually said this to her.
Why didn't she come earlier?
It’s because my mother has used this trick too many times.
Every time, he used hunger strike to force her or her brother to compromise.
But this time she can't tolerate it anymore, so she came today.
Why does Yun Yuxiang always obey her mother? It’s because everything her mother does is beneficial to the Yun family.
Ever since Yun Yuxiang entered the palace, the Queen Mother treated her like her own daughter, and she, the real biological daughter, was sidelined.
And Changle, the Queen Mother’s only granddaughter, is not as popular as the Yun family’s daughter.
He is really blinded by greed.
Does the Queen Mother really think that others don’t know what she is thinking?
The Queen Mother doesn't care, and she doesn't want to stay here and be an eyesore.
He turned and went to the imperial study. No matter what, Yun Yizi could not be forgiven this time.
Cining Palace
After feeding the empress dowager a bowl of porridge quickly, Concubine Yun then helped her rinse her mouth and drink tea, serving her more attentively than she would her own mother.
The Queen Mother looked at her with more and more loving eyes.
"I said you were considerate, and once you start being considerate, you can't stop. Stop working and sit down and take a rest."
"Mother, it's just a small matter. How can I be tired? I am happy to serve you."
“Hahaha~”
The laughter even drifted out of the Cining Palace.
"Zhuo Xu originally wanted to come and pay his respects to you, but the emperor put him under house arrest, so he can only come and pay his respects to you with the princess after the wedding."
"The emperor is the same. Zhuo Xu is still young. It's not his fault that a black bear appeared in the hunting grounds, but he was punished by being grounded."
"Mother, it is true that Zhuo Xu did not do his job well. Your Majesty should punish him. It is said that a loving mother is a strict father. Your Majesty is also doing this for Zhuo Xu's own good."
"The child is still young, so it is inevitable that there will be omissions in his work. Just teach him slowly. The emperor is too harsh."
Concubine Yun didn't dare to respond, and just said, "Your Majesty also wants Zhuo Xu to be able to take charge of his own affairs as soon as possible."
"Xiang'er is the most considerate person in the palace. I wonder if the emperor knows about your feelings."
"Your Majesty is busy with many things every day, and I should be considerate of Your Majesty."
"You...what can I say about you? You are too sensible."
"You should go out of the palace more often to visit your father in the next two days."
Concubine Yun frowned:
"Mother, this incident is quite strange. Father was chased by a black bear at the hunting ground. The black bear was clearly caught, but why was it released on the way back and attacked father?"
