The Cannon Fodder and Villain’s Happy Ending

In this atmosphere, the new year is coming, and the first day of the new year is very lively, with the sound of firecrackers everywhere.

This was the second New Year Qin Jiu spent in the Daqi Dynasty, but it was the first time she asked the princess to enter the palace to worship.

Because of Gu Zezhi, Qin Jiu, who was a generation older than a generation, had already beaten a lot of Jin Dianzi and Yin Dianzi in advance to give out New Year money, but when the second princess and the sixth prince, they called themselves aunts. When she reached out to ask for the New Year's money, she almost smiled without holding back.

After sending out a few new year's money, Qin Jiu's face became thicker. When Fang Hanjun came to call her cousin, she didn't hesitate to stuff her a purse, "Here, your new year's money."

Fang Hanjun: "..."

The second princess Xin'an came over and said with a smile: "Cousin, we are not in time. It is the child. We are going to collect the depressing money."

Qin Zhuo was happy, and deliberately put on a posture of an elder and said, "Even if it's time to slap, it is a child!"

When she said this, some girls from the clan also came up to ask for the New Year's money with a smile, and the scene was full of joy and joy.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I went back to my natal family, and on the third day of the Lunar New Year, I left relatives.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Qin Jiu and Gu Zezhi went to Wenquan Zhuangzi to stay for two days.

After returning from Wenquan Zhuangzi, Qin Jiu slowly began to pack up his luggage, and when he returned to Qin's house on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, he told Mrs. Qin that she was leaving Beijing.

"Grandma, in a few days I will go back to Xijiang with Zezhi and meet the king of Duan."

Qin Jiu understood what Gu Zezhi meant, so he planned to reveal the matter of their going back to Xijiang for greetings without a trace.

Mrs. Qin's first reaction was that the journey was far away and it was too hard.

But distressed, distressed, and she couldn't talk about it. If the granddaughter married out, it would be the man in the palace to kowtow to the father-in-law, and that is reasonable.

Besides, King Duan was ordered by the emperor to guard the western borders, and he would definitely not be able to come to the capital. It should be the son-in-law of the younger generation to make this trip. If Qin Jiao did not go, he would be criticized instead.

Mrs. Qin calmed down and asked a series of questions with concern: "Have you packed up yet? Uncle can decide when to leave? Does the emperor know about it?"

Qin Jiao said with a smile: "When Zezhi's errand is finished, we will set off again. I will collect things slowly."

Mrs. Qin nodded, feeling that this was right, and she couldn't delay the errand. To put it harshly, Xijiang is so far away, so I'm not afraid it will be one or two days late.

When I thought that my granddaughter would travel far, especially this girl had never been so far, Mrs. Qin felt uneasy, and took Qin Jiu's hand and said, "Sister Jiu, you are a junior to the elders. It's your duty, but don't wrong yourself too much."

"If you can't get along with'over there,' don't force it. No matter what they say, you don't have to worry about it. Anyway, you and your uncle will return to Beijing after a few days."

"As for that concubine Feng, she is not a serious mother-in-law anyway, you don't have to give her face, if she wants to set rules for you, and block people in the house or something, refuse. You have to remember that you are a concubine and you don’t need to look at your concubine’s mother. Look, what's the matter, the Hou Mansion will support you."

Mrs. Qin Tai's remarks can be described as heartbreaking. Qin Jiao is a person who knows good and bad, and he happily responded.

For fear that the elderly would be worried, she took Mrs. Qin's right arm and said affectionately: "Grandma, don't worry, I won't suffer from anything, besides, there is Zezhi!"

Qin Jiu smiled sweetly and glutinously, seeing Mrs. Qin's heart melted, and completely disapproving of her granddaughter's first sentence. Her granddaughter is also hard-mouthed and always soft-hearted. Wasn't she coaxed to take it out by her uncle? Give him less money, as for the second half of the granddaughter.

Thinking that Gu Zezhi had earned himself the title of county king at a young age, Mrs. Qin felt that his uncle was a success, and Du Ruo, who was given by Queen Wei, looked at her, and her granddaughter should not be at a loss.

The grandfather and grandson were talking, and the voice of a maid saluting came from outside: "Master Hou."

Immediately afterwards, the curtain was knocked up roughly, and Qin Zening hurried in with the curtain on himself.

Qin Jiu and Mrs. Qin Tai both looked at him subconsciously, Qin Jiu raised his eyebrows slightly, and he could see something strange from the subtle expression of his elder brother.

"Grandma." Qin Zening saluted Mrs. Qin Tai.

Mrs. Qin Tai only thought that Qin Zening knew that Qin Jiu was going to Xijiang, and smiled: "A-Ning, do you also know that your sister is going to Xijiang?"

Qin Zening did know it too, but he didn't come back for this matter, and deliberately said: "Grandma, my sister is going all the way to Xijiang this time, I have something to remind her."

Mrs. Qin smiled clearly, waved her hand, and dismissed the brothers and sisters.

It was not until the brothers and sisters left Ronghetang that Qin Zening looked at no one, and said to Qin Jiu: "As soon as the pen is written today, the emperor will formally decree the six princes to be crowned princes, but..."

Qin Zening's eyes were dark, and after a pause, he continued: "However, Gong Engong knelt in front of the Imperial Study Room after the early morning, saying that... his grandfather was in collusion with the King of Yu and was plotting wrongdoing."

"He also said that the empress should take off the hairpin and ask for sin, and then ask the queen to be abolished."

The surrounding air condensed slightly, and even the sun in the sky was covered by clouds, and the sky was slightly darkened.

Qin Jiu frowned lightly, his expression stern.

To put it bluntly, Grandpa Cheng En came to Gu Ju, and once there was a dead mother, Gu Ju would not be the crown prince.

The siblings exchanged tacit glances, and Qin Zening said anxiously: "Xiao Jiu, I'm going to the Weifu Palace to see grandma and uncle. You go to the palace to see your aunt."

"Wait!" Qin Jiu grabbed Qin Zening's sleeve and said with a serious face: "Brother, don't go to Weifu, you can go to Zezhi. I'll go to Weijia to see my grandmother."

Qin Zening believed in Gu Zezhi's ability and nodded decisively: "Okay, I'll go to Gu Zezhi."

Therefore, the two brothers and sisters acted separately. After coming out of the Zhongyi Hou Mansion, Qin Zening headed east, Qin Jiu went west, and went to Wei Mansion first.

She only stayed in Weifu for a while, and in just one cup of tea, she came out again, and went to the palace with Mrs. Wei Tai in her Zhulun chariot.

One of them was the Princess of Chen County and the other was the birth mother of the Queen. With their brand names, even if the Queen was not called in advance, they entered the palace smoothly and went to Fengluan Palace.

In Fengluan Palace, looking at the calm and calm waves, there was a vaguely dignified dark tide.

Before Mrs. Wei Tai could speak, Empress Wei said, "Mother, I also know about father."

Mrs. Wei Tai: "..."

"Mother, don't worry about it," Empress Wei comforted the worried Mrs. Wei Tai, "I and the emperor know his father, and the emperor will definitely not wrong his father."

With a small smile on the corners of her lips, Queen Wei said, "There is an emperor."

Her eyes are open-minded and clear, her expression is gentle and calm, and she has a calm and quiet temperament.

Qin Jiu knew that the empress had always had deep feelings. Seeing that Empress Wei could still trust the emperor so much under such circumstances, he was not anxious or impatient. Qin Jiu was a little bit worried before, and even felt that I was fed a mouthful of dog food.

The corners of her lips were slightly bent, and she agreed with a smile: "My aunt is right, there is an emperor!"

Mrs. Wei Tai also relaxed a little, but her heart was still hanging in the air.

At this time, Xiao Kouzi came in and said: "Queen Empress, Duke Zhou is here."

Zhou Xin was the great **** next to the emperor, and Mrs. Wei knew that too, she couldn't help but tightened her veil.

Queen Wei asked Zhou Xin to be brought in.

Zhou Xin walked up to the queen without squinting, bowed respectfully, and said: "The emperor asked the slave to come over and say to the queen's empress, don't worry."

The fact that Mrs. Wei Tai and Qin Jiu entered the palace could not be kept from the emperor. The emperor specially asked Zhou Xin to make this trip, not only to relieve Queen Wei, but also to tell Mrs. Wei Tai.

Zhou Xin went on to say: "Cheng Engong said that Master Wei colluded with King Yu, and took out some letters as evidence. These letters were secretly exchanged between Master Wei and King Yu in the past few years, and Master Wei was left in the letter. The stamp of, the calligraphy of Master Wei, look at the handwriting, these letters are indeed from Master Wei..."

Mrs. Wei Tai's face changed instantly, and she blurted out: "Impossible. My Wei family and Wang Yu have never been in contact." Her voice was a little high.

The Wei family’s daughter is a queen, and the emperor has had a long history with the king of Yu. This is well known in the world. How could the family of Wei go to serve the king of Yu!

Zhou Xin smiled and comforted Mrs. Wei and said, "Mrs. Wei, don't worry, the emperor knows her."

After he finished speaking, he saluted Empress Wei, then flicked the whisk home again.

Madam Wei stared at Zhou Xin's back in a daze. How could she be relieved of such a big event!

The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became, her face getting paler and colder sweat on her forehead.

If there is any carelessness in this matter, not only will the daughter's back position not be kept, it may also harm the Wei family.

Although the emperor has good feelings, the emperor is not only the daughter's husband-in-law, but also the emperor of the Qi Dynasty. The emperor is noble and has the palm of the world, but he can't act recklessly.

If the evidence is conclusive, it's not that the emperor's sentence has nothing to do with the Wei family, and that can be suppressed, and only the dazzling tyrant can do whatever he wants.

The more Mrs. Wei thought about it, the more heavy her heart became, but her grandfather was not in the capital now, and she couldn't directly go to the emperor to plead for himself.

In contrast, Queen Wei is still very calm.

She trusted the emperor, so naturally she was not in a hurry, and calmly said: "Mother, don't worry. The emperor is still investigating this matter, and we are waiting for news here."

She felt that Mrs. Wei's face was not very good, and said to Xiao Kouzi: "Go to the hospital and call the doctor to show Mrs. Wei Tai."

Xiao Kouzi immediately took his life.

"Mother, I heard my sister-in-law say that you have had liver-yang hyperactivity in the past few years. Don't be too excited. If you get sick, then my father, me, and my brother-in-law are worried about you." Holding Mrs. Wei Tai's hand, gently stroked her back.

Qin Jiu knew that hyperactivity of the liver yang seemed to be high blood pressure. The problem with high blood pressure could be big or small. He turned around and ordered Youbai to make a cup of cassia tea, and comforted Mrs. Wei, "Grandma, the eldest brother is looking for Zezhi. Nothing will happen."

Mrs. Wei looked at Empress Wei and Qin Jiao again. Seeing that the two younger generations were so calm, she gradually calmed down. She felt that she was really old, and she hadn’t seen any big winds and waves before. The first emperor’s time was worse. The situation is not unavailable. After more than ten years of peaceful days, some can't stand the storm.

Mrs. Wei calmed down and began to think calmly.

The handwriting can be imitated, and the stamp can also be forged.

After a while, she said again: "Empress, your father's seal has not been lost, so the stamp on this letter must be fake." They may be able to start checking from here.

Empress Wei saw her mother calm down, and said with a smile: "The false is not true, as long as the letter is false, there will be flaws..."

She was about to invite Yu Ping to go to the emperor's side to make a complaint. The little Kouzi who had just gone out to send Zhou Xin came back, and said: "Niangniang, Gongpai Wang is here, give the empress dowager an order, Xuan Niangniang will go to Shouning Palace. "

Mrs. Wei Tai: "..."

Her mind that had finally calmed down became tense again, her hand squeezed the armrest on the right, and veins appeared on the back of her hand.

She had to think more. After all, Cheng Engong is the elder brother of Empress Dowager Liu, so he framed his own grandfather in this way, would this also have the intention of Empress Dowager Liu?

At this moment, Qin Jiu stood up and said: "Auntie, I haven't asked the queen mother for a long time. I will accompany you to Shouning Palace."

Empress Wei nodded, and she comforted Mrs. Wei Tai, leaving the old man waiting in Fengluan Palace, and she went to Shouning Palace with Qin Jiu.

The weather in the first month was still very cold, and the thick cloak couldn't stop the cold wind. Fortunately, the palace people in Fengluan Palace carefully prepared a hand stove for Qin Zhuo.

Wang Gonggong walked beside Empress Wei, half a step behind, and reminded him until he clicked: "The empress, the imperial concubine and the second prince are also in Shouning Palace."

At this moment, the atmosphere in Shouning Palace was quite brisk.

Concubine Liu Gui smiled and said to Empress Liu: "The queen mother, yesterday also specially asked the doctor Wang to diagnose Qin's pulse, and she was pregnant with a male fetus in all likelihood."

The Royal Doctor Wang is good at gynecology. Empress Dowager Liu narrowed her eyes when she heard the words, and said to Gu Jing: "Second prince, you are going to be a father soon. You should also grow up and handle the errands well."

Although the one hundred Queen Mother Liu can’t look down upon Qin Xin, the child in Qin Xin’s belly is of royal blood and his great-grandson. For this, she temporarily endured the unhappiness in her heart. It is still the arrival of this great-grandson. Quite looking forward to it.

A gloomy ray of light flashed across Gu Jing's eyes, and it disappeared in a flash. With a gentle smile on his face, he said: "Grandma, don't worry, your grandson will definitely make progress in the future."

Empress Liu saw that Gu Jing looked sincere and respectful, and she saw that she was calmer again, she was relieved, wondering whether to wait for the child to give birth, take advantage of the emperor's good mood, persuade the emperor to give Gu Jing a princess, he would leave the palace. The mansion is built, after all, it is the emperor's own flesh and blood, and the decentness should be given, so that people outside are always there to guess.

Concubine Liu Gui was also observing Queen Mother Liu’s complexion. Seeing her smiled kindly, she jokingly said: "Mother, the child should be born in a few months. I have already prepared a lot of toys for that child. I am thinking about two or three months. The sixth prince should be seven years old. I also prepared a copy for the sixth prince. It happened to be a copy for the two uncles and nephews. After this child is born, the nephew and uncle can play together."

Concubine Liu Gui said casually like a joke, but in fact there was another meaning in her words, alluding that Gu Ju was no more than a milk doll and could be the son of the second prince at his age. How could he be a prince? !

Empress Dowager Liu said calmly: "You reminded me that March is the birthday of the sixth prince, and the Aijia must prepare a gift for him."

Concubine Liu Gui stroked her sleeves and exchanged glances with Gu Jing calmly.

She said two more words around Gu Ju's birthday before she changed the subject seemingly: "Mother, I just heard that Mrs. Wei has entered the palace."

"..." Empress Dowager Liu smiled slightly at the corner of her lips.

The atmosphere in the hall also condensed.

Concubine Liu Gui was overjoyed in her heart, but she sighed faintly on her face, and said: "Hey. I thought Master Wei was a honest and loyal person, but I didn't expect to secretly be confused with King Yu."

"As far as I can see, the king of Yu is uneasy and kind. It doesn't count as if he killed his cousin Yongle. He treated Hanjun so badly. I heard that the king of Yu also built a palace for the concubine Fang in Yuzhou, cf. the empress dowager."

The words and sentences of Concubine Liu Gui pointed at the pain points of the Queen Mother Liu.

Concubine Liu sighed again and said: "Hey, how can the Wei family be like this? And the child of Han Jun..." Concubine Liu held a kerchief and wiped the unnecessarily tears in the corner of her eyes. "I think of this child every night. Sleepless, she is still so young, how can she live the rest of her life!"

Empress Dowager Liu slowly picked up a white tea cup with floating patterns and drank tea with her eyes down.

Seeing Empress Dowager Liu not speaking, Concubine Liu ordered until she stopped and gave Gu Jing a wink. Gu Jing said again: "Grandma, my grandson recently found a painting of "Avalokitesvara of Yangliu" painted by the saint king in the previous dynasty. I’m sending people to Beijing, I’ll be there in two days, and then I can ask the emperor’s grandmother to hold hands for her grandson.”

He said it was palm and palm, but he actually wanted to please the Empress Dowager Liu with this Guanyin picture.

The Empress Dowager Liu naturally believed in Guanyin, but she was slightly moved when she heard about this precious "Picture of Yangliu Guanyin".

At this time, a court lady came to report, and Queen Wei and Qin Jiao came.

Gong Gonggong led the two into the Dongbian Hall. After Empress Dowager Liu gave them a seat, Guifei Liu smiled and said to Qin Jiu: "Say, I haven't seen Princess Chenjun for a long time, why have you suddenly entered the palace? Well, but came with your grandmother? I don’t know how well Mrs. Wei is in her elderly health."

Concubine Liu Gui's expression and tone are gentle and gentle, but what this means is that Qin Jiao accompanied Mrs. Wei into the palace to intercede with her grandfather, and Qin Gui is now the princess of Chenjun. , Her attitude naturally also represents Gu Zezhi's attitude.

Mrs. Liu put down the tea cup expressionlessly, and said straightforwardly: "Xiaojui just came the day before."

"..." Concubine Liu's face became stiff.

Qin Jiao said with a smile: "The minister's wife hasn't seen the noble concubine for a long time. Every time the minister's wife comes to Shouning Palace to greet the queen mother, the noble concubine is not here." On the day after the marriage came to Shouning Palace to confess, Concubine Liu Gui did not appear either, saying that she was unwell.

Empress Dowager Liu stopped paying attention to Concubine Liu, and asked Queen Wei, "Is Lingtang here?"

Empress Wei nodded and replied: "After returning to mother, I just entered the palace before a cup of tea." She said meaningfully and glanced at Concubine Liu Gui. As soon as Mrs. Wei entered the palace, Concubine Liu knew it, really. Have a heart."

Concubine Liu Gui still held her head up, smiling and looking at Queen Wei.

She has been under the Queen Wei for so many years, Feng Shui turns, this time, the evidence is solid, it is not so easy for Queen Wei to retreat.

Empress Dowager Liu greeted Mrs. Wei's body a few words before saying: "Queen, before Lingtang leaves the palace, let her also come to Ai's house. Ai's family and her have not seen each other for many years. She rarely visits the capital. It happens to recount the past with the Aijia."

Queen Wei owed her body and responded with a smile.

Empress Dowager Liu sighed sighfully, and said meaningfully: "The affairs of the previous court go to the court, and the affairs of the harem go to the harem."

Empress Dowager Liu specifically called Queen Wei to relieve her heart. Regardless of whether Master Wei was guilty or not, it would not affect the Queen.

Empress Wei widened her eyes slightly in surprise, startled for a moment, got up to face the Queen Mother Liu and blessed her body, "Thank you for your mother's care." She calmly accepted the kindness of Queen Mother Liu.

In the past, the Queen Mother Liu really hoped that the second prince Gu Jing could inherit the throne. After all, he had the blood of the Liu family in his body. However, the various things that Gu Jing showed in the past two years have really disappointed the Queen Mother Liu and cannot bear the crown of a country.

Empress Dowager Liu had given up her mind a long time ago.

After all, to her, Gu Jing is her own grandson, and Gu is also her own grandson, and his succession is the same.

Besides, in the past, Empress Dowager Liu was anxious to establish a reserve because the emperor’s dragon body was not good enough. She was somewhat afraid that the emperor had a chance and the country did not establish a young master. Gu Jing would be more suitable than Gu Bi. Now the emperor’s dragon body is getting better. Empress Dowager Liu was relieved, and she didn’t want to intervene in the affairs of the court anymore. It was not until Concubine Liu Gui and Gu Jing’s mother and son came together just now and said roundly, that she knew that Grandpa Cheng En had impeached the Queen’s father Wei. .

Concubine Liu Gui: "!"

Gu Jing: "!"

The faces of the mother and the son are not very beautiful, and their bodies are tight.

They came to Shouning Palace today to put on eye drops, and they wanted Empress Liu to put pressure on the emperor. The purpose was naturally to abolish the queen. As long as the queen is abolished, Gu Ju is the son of the abandoned queen, and his only advantage as an imperial concubine is gone.

But I didn't expect that Empress Dowager Liu did not play cards according to common sense.

Concubine Liu's heart sank, and she didn't understand what happened to the Queen Mother. She had always been on their side before.

Concubine Liu Gui tightened the veil in her hand, almost squeezing it into a ball, and sighed, "If Master Wei is guilty, how should the Queen Empress be..." She looked worried.

Qin Jiu smiled sincerely and said: "The imperial concubine is so good, and I have to worry about the empress."

"The imperial concubine is really gentle and kind, as pure and flawless as the white lotus in the pond."

Empress Wei smiled faintly: "Thank you, my concubine sister, for taking care of this palace."

Empress Dowager Liu frowned slightly, feeling a little bit in her heart. What she hates most is lotus.

Back then, the first emperor loved Fang Qinlian's **** so much that he had a "lotus" in the bitch's name. Not only did he dig a pond to plant lotus in Fang Qinlian's palace, he also planted lotus in other places in the palace.

And that **** always has two faces. He is proud of the first emperor on his back. He is gentle and gentle in front of the first emperor. He also pretends to speak for himself. The first emperor will praise Fang Qinlian as the sludge. But not dyed, clear the ripples and not demon, reprimanding myself for not having the heart of the world.

After ascending to the throne today, Queen Mother Liu dug all the lotus flowers in the palace.

Empress Dowager Liu's expression became more and more gloomy, and she looked straight at Concubine Liu Gui. At this moment, she overlapped Concubine Liu's face with that of Concubine Fang.

How could her niece look like Princess Fang from her manner to her tone?

Back then, Princess Fang always did the same in front of the first emperor. She looked soft, but in fact what she said was cheering and stinging.

Empress Dowager Liu suddenly felt that Concubine Liu Gui was a little strange. Her former niece who intimately called her to be her aunt had actually changed a long time ago...

I was wrong. It was because I had been so indulging in this niece all these years that it raised her heart. Not only did she have the kind of domineering like Princess Fang.

She wanted the queen to fall, but instead of it? Taifei Fang was exactly the same back then, and repeatedly let the first emperor humiliate her, just to let the first emperor abolish the second and the prince.

Queen Mother Liu's heart was cold, and it was also cold. What is Liu Guifei's reliance on? To put it bluntly, isn't that yourself? ! She is using herself as a gunman! !

The more Queen Mother Liu thought about it, the more annoyed, she closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her eyes became sharper, saying:

"The harem must not be involved in politics, noble concubine, you go out and kneel for an hour."
