Nannan opened her eyes wide. She understood what the imperial grandmother said. She looked at her excited mother, then at her grandfather who kept coughing, and then looked back at the calm-looking imperial grandmother. She suddenly felt a little sad.
"You and I are married, but my daughter, who was not favored, eventually inherited the throne. In order to balance the power in the court, my mother appointed Zhao Qian, the legitimate son of the Zhao family who holds military power, for me. Imperial husband.
To be honest, I was unwilling at the time. I also asked you that if you didn't agree, I would push forward this ridiculous marriage like a deal. After I ascend the throne, you It's the emperor's husband.
But you compromised. You said that you were willing to make sacrifices for me to secure the throne, just hoping that I would not mistreat our daughter."
"Haha. , Wu Lianyi, do you think I am really willing? What can I do if I don’t want to? The late emperor threatened my family’s life, and even He’er’s life. What can I do? , after all, I am still a servant under one person, and my daughter is also the eldest princess. I have to make plans for my daughter’s future.”
Perhaps out of anger, Rong Shijun finished speaking in one breath before starting to cough.
The eldest princess, who listened to the conversation between the two, lowered her eyes and closed her eyes.
“Actually, when you said those untrue words, I was disappointed. As a husband and wife, you never gave me even the most basic trust, and you were not even willing to say what was in your heart. My daughter has made a plan.
If you were unwilling to give up the throne, I would let someone marry Zhao Qian and directly prevent this marriage from the source. If you don’t believe me, I will accept it. This marriage, and even so, I have no bias in teaching the princess, and I even think about passing the throne to the eldest princess.
Firstly, it is to compensate you, and secondly, Heer is stable and able to take on the responsibility. Something happened, but the Zhao family has a hundred thousand military power. I want to remove all these obstacles before passing the throne to He'er. This is also the reason why I did not appoint the crown princess early, but you are so impatient to deal with it. I give chronic poison
You say, what should I do? "
Ripple looked up, his sharp gaze passing over Rong Shijun and the eldest princess.
"When you and your daughter did these things, did you ever think that one day they would be exposed? "
"These are all done by me alone and have nothing to do with He'er. "
Rong Shijun supported the edge of the bed and sat up with difficulty and said.
"It has nothing to do with her? She personally held the two scriptures in front of me."
Lianyi said without mercy.
"Mother, my daughter deserves to die, please remember the past friendship and save my father!"
The eldest princess's eyes were already red, and tears were rolling in her eyes. , but it didn't flow down, she kowtowed directly.
“It’s not that I don’t want to be cured. Ask your father if there is an antidote to this chronic poison?”
Lianyi's expression remained unchanged and she still asked calmly.
“.”
The eldest princess suddenly raised her head and looked at Rong Shijun, only to see him closing his eyes in despair. It was obvious that there was no antidote to this poison, which showed that her father was He was rushing to kill the Queen Mother.
"He'er, your father is not in good health, so you can rest here and take care of him."
"Wu Lianyi, you are so cruel!"
Rong Shijun's shrill voice rang out and was heard by the waiters and female officials guarding the door. However, no one looked around, they all looked at him as if he did not exist. "Who is this cruel person? If you didn't have the thought, how could you have reached this point today!"
Lianyi smiled sarcastically, obviously she couldn't let go of the power that was at her fingertips. Now the blame is placed on her.
“You can be ruthless and unjust, but I can’t. From now on, my daughter will stay with me. When she can be independent, I will pass the throne to her. This is my responsibility as a wife, mother and The Queen’s compensation for the grievances you have suffered.”
After finishing speaking, Lianyi stood up directly, held Nannan’s hand, and asked softly:
"Nanny, what you heard and saw today, forget it as soon as you leave this room. Don't mention it to anyone. Wait until you figure it out that day and then talk to the Queen's grandmother. From now on, you will stay with the Queen's grandmother. , do you understand?”
The nine-year-old girl has already remembered things. Although some things are unclear, it does not prevent her from writing down, so she nodded heavily and said:
“Grandma Huang” Don’t worry, my granddaughter took note of it.”
“Let’s go!”
Lianyi shook her large red sleeves, held Nannan’s hand, and left Rong Shi step by step. Your bedroom.
Accompanied by Rong Shijun's cough, the eldest princess looked at her mother's retreating figure, just like looking at the throne leaving her. Her heart felt tight and aggrieved, but it was already too late.
The coughing seemed to be unable to stop. It was not until Rong Shijun coughed up a ball of flesh and blood that he stopped coughing. He looked at his daughter who was still kneeling on the ground. He finally sighed and said :
"He'er, my time is running out. You have to prepare your funeral arrangements in these two days. When I die, these secrets will be buried with me.
Queen Since I value my daughter and have given her a promise, I will naturally not break my promise. My daughter is still young and will still need your support as a mother after a hundred years. Don’t get into trouble.”
Rong Shijun. The words brought the eldest princess back from her chaotic thoughts. She nodded, got up from the ground, wiped her face and said:
"Father is right, I still have a chance."
I immediately grabbed the two scriptures, turned around and left Rong Shijun's bedroom. This was evidence of the murder of the Queen Mother. Since the Queen Mother did not take it back, naturally She didn't intend to pursue it, she wanted to deal with all this quickly.
Ten days later, Rong Shijun died of illness. The eldest princess took care of the funeral and began to observe filial piety. The court was also unusually calm. Lianyi would bring her daughter with her when she went to court every day, but she did not let the little girl Show your face.
Nanny was hiding behind the spacious throne of the Imperial Grandmother, listening to the daily arguments among the court officials. Some people even suggested that the Imperial Grandmother should reinstate the emperor's husband, but she was dismissed by the Imperial Grandmother. Once blocked, he went back.
After going back, Nannan tilted her head and asked:
"Royal grandmother, you already have so many granddaughters with you, why do they still want you to marry a husband?"
"They don't want an imperial husband to accompany me, they just want an imperial husband. It's just a name, so whether my daughter or granddaughter inherits the throne, they will respect him as the emperor's father and grandfather. He is the most respected person in the palace at a young age. What they value is identity and status. "
Nannan nodded in understanding, and then said with a smile:
“In Nannan’s heart, the imperial grandmother will never grow old, she will always be so beautiful!”
“ Tsk tsk, how much honey have you eaten? Your mouth is so sweet, but you want to coax the imperial grandmother to give you less homework?”
"Hee hee, Grandma Imperial, my granddaughter wants to go to the garden."
The autumn harvest is around the corner, and the departure of the Imperial Husband and Rong Shijun is gradually forgotten by people, who are all focusing on people's livelihood.
