Chapter 218: Empress Dowager

Chapter 218 The post-marriage

After the morning court, Gu Yin came to Longxiang Palace.

"Greetings to the Emperor." Gu Yin lifted his robe and prepared to give a big gift.

He was stopped by Ning Shiqian.

"Your Majesty has reported to the emperor that he has changed some leaders of the Imperial Guards, who are in charge of posts and posts," Gu Yin said.

He is not the leader of Emperor Jing's secret guard now, but the leader of the imperial guard.

Ning Shiqian nodded: "There is no need to rush, just take it slowly."

"Yes!" Gu Yin received the order.

To be honest, he has been calling his name for so many years, but suddenly he is a little uncomfortable with the other party being the emperor.

Ning Shi moved to the screen and left, leaving only Shi Lei and Gu Yin in the hall.

"Is there any news about her?" he asked Gu Yin.

Gu Yin naturally knew who he was asking.

"When I go back to the emperor, it is said that because there are too many people going to the house to seek medical treatment, she moved to the palace and moved into Nuanxiang Pavilion."

"I know these," Ning Shiqian said, "I'm asking if there is any other news?"

Xue Guizao Feige sent a letter to tell him.

"There are no other subordinates. Since the Secret Room of the Four Princes' Mansions, my subordinates have never seen her again, and there is no contact with her." Gu Yin replied.

Ning Shiqian didn't say anything. Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Yangyang smiled and signaled him to retreat.

When Ning Shiqian came to Xiangrui Palace to pay tribute to Concubine De, Concubine De was feeding fish by the fish pond in the courtyard.

"Mother's wife."

Seeing him coming, Concubine De handed over the fish food to Madam Chang next to him: "The emperor is here just right, I happen to have something to discuss with the emperor."

The mother and son went to the pavilion next to him.

"Mother, my son just went to pay my respects to my father. I saw that my father was still in a bad mood. Didn't my mother give him the antidote?" Ning Shiqian asked.

Concubine De sat down beside the bench in the pavilion: "Of course I gave it. If I didn't give it, could he survive until now?"

After saying that, he changed his mind again.

"But, the antidote is not enough to be as good as it can be eaten once. It must be eaten once a month, and it takes two years to eat. In this way, he will not dare to be detrimental to our mother and son in the past two years. You also have enough time to strengthen your feathers and sit firmly on the throne."

Ning Shiqian was very surprised.

I have to sigh that his mother is thoughtful and well-planned, and she also feels that such a mother is a little unfamiliar.

In my memory, his mother was gentle, kind, timid, and timid. After sleeping for a few years, she woke up and changed a lot.

Ning Shiqian looked at her, looked at the exquisite makeup on her face, and felt indescribable.

"Mother, you don't need to be so sharp for your son."

Concubine De's eyes rippled slightly and looked at him.

After a moment of silence, he spoke, "It's not all for you. When he asked Zhuyan to poison me with a poison, he was destined that I would not have any sympathy for him for the rest of his life."

Ning Shiqian sighed, not knowing what to say.

He also lifted his robe and sat down on the bench opposite Defei.

"By the way, my mother just said that she had something to discuss, what's the matter?"

"The wedding was born." Concubine De said.

Ning Shiqian was stunned.

Pointing to yourself: "Are you a son?"

"Otherwise? Besides you, who else can marry a woman named Empress Li?" Concubine De asked with a smile.

Ning Shiqian's eyelashes trembled slightly.

"But my son."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Concubine De: "I know you don't want it, but, child, this is your only way. Throughout history, which emperor can do exactly what he wants, and which emperor can do exactly what he is willing to do?"

Ning Shiqian did not speak.

"You first ascended the great treasure and needed to win people's hearts and consolidate your foundation. The fourth princess Zhuyan is dead, and you can marry another. I know you can't let go of your sister."

Before Concubine De finished speaking this time, Ning Shiqian raised her eyes and interrupted her: "Mother, she has a name, her name is Bai Jiuxiao."

He didn't want to hear the word "sister".

"Okay, okay, Bai Jiuxiao," Concubine De was not angry, "I know you can't let go of Bai Jiuxiao, but what can that happen? Good fortune makes people doomed, you are destined to be brothers and sisters in this life."

"So, children, look forward and go forward. The road of life is still very long. If you try to go out, he may feel that he can't do it at this moment, but once he goes out and looks back in the future, you will find that nothing is necessary, really, nothing is necessary, no matter people or things."

"And, since you have sat in this position, you must be responsible for the country and the people of Sanglin. You must stand firm first, then be strong, and then do what you want to do, seek benefits for the people, and you can protect the people you want to protect."

"Now, you haven't even stood firm. How do you protect me and how do you protect my sister."

The word "sister" was revealed, and Concubine De realized it and quickly added a name: "How to protect her sister Bai Jiuxiao?"

Ning Shiqian lowered his eyebrows and eyes, but he didn't respond. He waited until she finished speaking before he bent his lips and raised his eyes.

"Is the candidate my mother likes to be Quchi from the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Concubine De was a little surprised: "Do you know?"

Ning Shiqian shook his head: "I don't know, but my son looked at the court, and Qu Xiang had the greatest power and prestige. He could respond to one call in the court. If he wanted to win over, of course, he would win over such humeral people, right?"

"Look, don't you understand all these principles?" Concubine De was very happy and relieved.

Ning Shiqian bends his lips.

He has always understood the truth.

I've always understood it.

She didn't need to instill him here at all.

But understanding the truth is one thing, and inner will is another thing.

"There are two girls in the Qu family. Qu Ge is dead, and only Qu Chi is left. Qu Chi is originally the pearl in Qu Xiang's hand, not to mention that Qu Ge is gone. Therefore, if you can marry him as your queen, Qu Xiang will naturally stand on your side."

"The most important thing is that I have asked someone to inquire about you. In fact, Qu Chi has been thinking about you for many years, but Qu Ge has a good relationship with you, so you ignore Qu Chi. In fact, no matter what character or appearance, Qu Chi is no worse than Qu Ge."

Ning Shiqian didn't listen to the words behind Concubine De, and he remembered that dream.

I remembered the dream of Bai Jiuxiao cutting his throat in front of him because he didn't marry him.

After Defei finished speaking, she saw Ning Shiqian looking at a place where she was lost. She called out several times before Ning Shiqian came back to her senses.

"But it depends on the mother."

Concubine De was very surprised: "Did you agree?"

I thought she had to spend some time talking and thinking.

"Um."

Since it is impossible to marry a woman you want to marry, who else wouldn’t marry?

"That's great!" Concubine De was very excited and stood up: "Then I will go to the prime minister's mansion in person in a while."

*

Qu Xiang actually doesn't agree with this matter.

Because he originally planned to marry Qu Ge to Ning Shiqian, Qu Chi wanted to marry him to the third prince Ning Shuyan.

Unexpectedly, things were unpredictable. Qu Ge died suddenly and Ning Shuyan did not receive the throne.

So, he felt a little uncomfortable.

But she couldn't bear to see Qu Chi liked it. When she heard that Concubine De came to talk about this matter in person, her father was vague and rushed to the two of them, expressing that she was willing.
