Chapter 614 Turning point(1/2)
Chapter 614 Turnaround
Because the contents of the mahogany box were quite messy, it took the Queen about a quarter of an hour to sort out the memorials and approval documents regarding the Beijing-Western Railway.
She also took the opportunity to calm down, and finally she was not as panicked as she was at the beginning, but when she looked at Jiao Shun occasionally, she still seemed to be looking at something dirty.
The anecdote about calling my father was outrageous enough, but this second one was actually written in front of my mother-in-law’s soul...
In the eyes of the queen, Jiao Shun seemed to have become the evil of the world and the contempt of the world, so much so that even though she could hand those things to Jiao Shun in just two steps and reach out, she still called the palace maid from outside to hand them over.
Jiao Shun had calmed down again by this time.
What he was most worried about just now was that the Queen couldn't help but get angry after reading his wonderful article. But looking at the current situation, although the Queen was greatly shocked, she had no intention of making the matter public.
Think about it, after all, this thing was taken from the imperial study. Once exposed, he, the instigator, will certainly not end well. How can the emperor who keeps holding on to the book all day long gain a good reputation?
Especially since Emperor Longyuan is still in this situation.
Unless the queen has a son who is eager to inherit the throne, she has no reason to expose this matter.
And since she won't reveal it, how much impact will it have on herself?
So he calmly took the official documents, knelt down again, raised them high above his head, and said righteously: "I will live up to your majesty's trust!"
Emperor Longyuan opened his eyes with some difficulty, showed a smile that was half gratifying and half ferocious, and said: "As long as you are here, I have nothing to worry about."
He was obviously a little out of energy, and the Queen had already wanted to send Jiao Shun away, so she hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, since he has received the decree, you should take good care of him."
When Jiao Shun heard this, he hurriedly took advantage of the situation to leave. He stood up, held the official documents, took a few steps back, pushed open the curtain with his butt, and then turned around and left the palace.
After watching Jiao Shun leave, the queen withdrew her fierce look and was about to hand over the hot mahogany box to the emperor for disposal, so that she could pretend to know nothing about it and never touch those dirty things again.
Unexpectedly, in just a short while, the emperor closed his eyes again and his breathing became even.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"
The queen called softly twice, but she still couldn't bear to wake him up.
I looked at the mahogany box in my hand awkwardly, but I didn't know what to do with it for a moment.
If there were not those two dirty books, Dai Quan could just keep them, but how could she dare to hand them over to others now?
Nowadays, there are rumors in the palace, saying that the emperor's stroke was caused by the virtuous concubine Jia Yuanchun's flirtation with the emperor. If the things in this were spread, the rumors would probably turn into the emperor's debauchery and immorality.
Speaking of which, where did Dai Quan go?
If he had never left his post without permission, how could he have encountered such a ridiculous thing?!
…………
Jingren Palace, Yuyun Garden.
Dai Quan, who still didn't know that he had been angered by the queen for some inexplicable reason, was frowning and confronting the virtuous concubine opposite with a cold look on his face.
To be honest, he originally came here with the intention of turning the big thing into a trivial matter, and just wanted to send the Baoqin to the Clothing Bureau.
Who would have thought that Jia Yuanchun refused to agree, and even used a door bolt to force back several eunuchs who wanted to take people.
Although this was the reason why the eunuchs did not dare to fight her, she did have a bit of a general-like demeanor with the stick in her hand, so the situation was frozen for a moment.
Dai Quan had no choice but to advise: "Your Majesty, please don't embarrass me. If the trouble continues, I'm afraid you won't handle me so lightly."
Touch~
Jia Yuanchun turned the door bolt over and hit the bluestone with a heavy slap, and said without hesitation: "I said that I am forcing you to go out with the piano. If you violate the king's law, you will be punished directly by me."
"Empress!"
Baoqin, who was kneeling behind her, had already burst into tears. At this moment, he couldn't help but hugged one of her long legs and sobbed: "It's obviously this slave's own fault..."
"shut up!"
Jia Yuanchun scolded him, and said decisively to Dai Quan with a cold face: "Eunuch Dai will be responsible for the punishment. I will accept the punishment no matter what."
Dai Quan vaguely noticed that Jia Yuanchun seemed to want to make things worse.
Is it because I can’t stand the current embarrassing situation, or is it...
Can't bear to let her tender-skinned brother continue to serve in prison?
Speaking of which, what is going on in the Rongguo Mansion? The boy and the girl gave birth to a son, but the two daughters are quite heroic.
Thinking of the rumored third girl, Dai Quan couldn't help but curse a few words, and then bowed and said: "In this case, I can only go back and ask Your Majesty to make a decision."
Seeing Dai Quan take a few steps back and turn around to leave, Jia Yuanchun held on to the door bolt and remained unmoved. He hugged Qin and wanted to speak to stop him, but she covered his mouth with her backhand.
It wasn't until Dai Quan was far away that Jia Yuanchun let go.
"Empress!"
He walked a few steps in front of her, holding the piano on his knees, and kowtowed as if he was pounding garlic. He cried out: "It's clearly my own decision. Why does the empress insist on taking her? If this is the case... I will die without redemption!"
"Get up and talk."
Jia Yuanchun threw the door bolt to the corner of the wall, picked up the piano and said: "You have been with me since you were a child, and now you are risking your life for me. How can I sit back and watch you suffer?"
Without waiting for Baoqin to say anything, she turned her eyes towards the direction of Qianqing Palace and said quietly: "Besides, this time is just right. If God bless me, there may be a turn for the better."
"Time?"
Baoqin was confused at first, but then he thought about the news that the empress had spent a lot of money to find out, and his eyes suddenly widened: "Are you talking about too..."
"Shh~"
Jia Yuanchun made a silent gesture and looked like he had the pearls of wisdom in his hands.
However, she was actually a little uneasy. After all, she originally wanted to wait for the emperor's condition to get better, but now she had to start early in order to hold Qin. As a result, she was even less sure whether her plan would work.
.
The book does not go into details.
After Dai Quan left Yuyun Garden, he hurriedly returned to the Qianqing Palace.
When he came behind the curtain, he saw that the emperor seemed to be sleeping. He hesitated for a moment, then turned to the queen and said, "Your Majesty..."
"Shh..."
The queen made a silent gesture, stood up from the end of the bed, and motioned for him to go outside to talk so as not to disturb the emperor.
Dai Quan was just about to follow her out, but the queen suddenly remembered something and suddenly returned to the bed and picked up a mahogany box.
Dai Quan felt that the wooden box looked familiar. It seemed that it was used by the emperor to store important memorials.
But it was just some memorials, and the emperor himself had never been so worried. The queen looked like she was facing a powerful enemy. Could it be that there were some top-secret items inside that she didn't know about?
Curious about what was inside, Dai Quan followed him outside and couldn't help but take a peek. He couldn't see what was inside, but he found that the queen was obviously in something wrong. She bit her lower lip lightly and her cheeks were slightly red, as if she was resentful and ashamed.
angry.
The husband has been paralyzed in bed for more than a month, and the widowed wife looks like this...
If it were someone who was not a human being, such as someone like Jiao, I'm afraid he would have strange thoughts immediately.
Fortunately, Dai Quan's six roots were pure, so he did not have such delusional thoughts, but he became more and more curious about what happened in the palace before.
"What's the matter? Tell me."
At this time, the queen seemed to have finally suppressed her strange emotions and asked a question in a somewhat cold voice.
Dai Quan hurriedly told the story about Baoqin, and then said helplessly: "I thought that Baoqin didn't have time to say anything. It's better to turn the big thing into a trivial matter. Send her to the clothes bureau first, and then report back.
Long live my lord, who knows..."
After hearing the cause and effect, the queen sighed and said: "Her master and servant grew up together before they entered the palace, and their affection is naturally no better than the others. If it were me, I would not be able to bear the punishment for holding Qin -
Alas, Sister Yuanchun also suffered a terrible disaster. It's a pity that I tried to explain it to her several times, but Your Majesty..."
After saying that, she sighed again and said helplessly: "Come on, we are sisters after all. When Your Majesty wakes up, I will beg for mercy for her."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard someone outside the door saying: "I'd better ask for this love on your behalf."
The Queen looked up and saw the Queen Mother turning out of the door. She hurriedly came forward to greet her, but before she could bend down, the Queen Mother grabbed her and pulled her and said happily: "Good boy, good boy.
It’s a shame you have such a big heart.”
When she was a queen, she didn't have a good look towards the emperor's beloved concubines, but as a mother-in-law, she hoped that her daughter-in-law would be as generous as possible.
After a few words of praise, she sighed again: "That child Yuanchun was chosen by me personally for the emperor. He has no choice in character, talent or learning, and he is most responsible for observing etiquette. This time... oh, if you had listened to me back then,
Yes, if I hadn’t drank those messy things, how could I have ended up in this situation now?”
As he spoke, he turned cold again and turned to ask Dai Quan: "Has the person who contributed the folk remedy been dealt with?"
One moment she was a loving mother, but this moment she was showing all her power.
"Go back to the Queen Mother."
Dai Quan hurriedly said: "Lingchi is scheduled to kill the nine tribes. Because of bad luck, he collided with Chunwei. It is scheduled to be executed on the 15th day of this month."
"Humph, so what about Chunwei?"
The Queen Mother snorted, but did not dwell on it. She just ordered calmly: "The body is not allowed to be collected after the execution."
Then he turned to the queen and said, "I heard that the emperor summoned Jiao Shun today?"
