Chapter 1153 Dressed as a Rebellious Vicious Stepmother 32
Xihe was called to the main courtyard, but before he could speak, Lu grabbed his hand and asked, "What are you and Chuan'er hiding from me?"
Xihe's heart suddenly thumped, and Lu's face was serious: "Huaiyu has no official position, so why would a waiter come to invite him into the palace? Now His Majesty is in great mourning, and the palace is in such chaos, what is he doing there as a child? Why don't you hurry up and get rid of him?
Call people back!"
Although he was worried, he didn't think about Meng Huaiyu's life experience.
But yes, who in the right mind would think that the child they have pampered for so many years is not their own!
Xihe felt complicated, but when things got to this point, the news of Meng Huaiyu's canonization of the crown prince would come out in less than two days, and there was no way he could hide it...
Thinking of this, Xihe took a deep breath: "Mom, my daughter-in-law has something to do..."
A maid hurriedly ran outside the door, breathing heavily: "Young madam, the waiter is outside the door!"
Lu subconsciously looked at Xihe, and the two looked at each other. Xihe immediately said: "Take people to the flower hall first." Then he held Lu's hand: "Mom, time is tight and I don't have time to explain, but you promise me,
No matter what happens, don’t be anxious! Okay?”
Mrs. Lu now had a premonition that something was wrong and nodded.
Xihe then talked about Meng Huaiyu's life experience in a few words, and after speaking, he stared at Lu's expression closely.
Mrs. Lu looked at her, her face turned pale a little, and then she staggered and fell back. Xihe quickly helped her sit down on the chair, and kept helping her.
After a long while, Mrs. Lu finally came back to her senses and looked at her, tears streaming down her face.
Xihe felt sour in his heart, but there were still many things to do at this moment: "Mom, the waiter is still waiting in the flower hall, let's go and receive the order first?"
Ms. Lu nodded with tears in her eyes.
The two of them helped her into the flower hall.
The eunuch who delivered the order had been waiting for a long time, but he was not impatient at all. Xihe said that the old lady was not in good health and was resting, and the eunuch agreed with a smile.
What a joke, these two are the mothers and legitimate wives of the chief minister, how can they be staged by a little eunuch like him?
What's more, others don't know that, as the palace's "Bao Dao", he is well aware of the newly minted mysterious prince, who is said to have a close relationship with the Shouxin Mansion.
After building a relationship from one level to another, it would be a blessing if he didn't kowtow to others.
You still dare to take Qiao because you think you have a long life?
When the imperial edict is issued, His Majesty will pass away and the Crown Prince will ascend the throne soon. As extraordinary ladies, they will go to the palace to pay homage and so on.
After conveying the decree, the eunuch avoided the sight of the maids, thrust a letter into Xihe, and whispered: "Mrs. Hou, this is given to you by the first assistant, please keep it."
Xihe quickly took it: "Thank you very much, waiter. I will enter the palace on time tomorrow."
The eunuch agreed with a smile, and then led the people out of the Shouxin Mansion.
As soon as the person left, Xihe opened the envelope, but as soon as she saw the content, she knew it was written by Meng Huaiyu.
In the letter, he briefly touched on his feelings, but focused on comforting the old lady and Mrs. Lu, asking them to take care of themselves, as he would always be their grandson, etc.
Mrs. Lu burst into tears after reading this and covered her mouth: "This child..."
Xihe hugged Mrs. Lu: "Mom, my grandmother's side..."
Mrs. Lu wiped her tears: "I will comfort your grandmother."
-
The next day, everyone entered the palace early.
The car passed through the palace gate and stopped in a palace in the harem.
Everyone changed into mourning clothes and then went to the palace where the funeral was held. Afterwards, they knelt down, offered incense, and cried in mourning. Everyone saw the young man in front of the emperor's coffin.
He was dressed in a bright yellow robe and knelt at the front of a group of princes who were older than him.
The back is straight and straight, and he has a handsome face that is unfamiliar to everyone, but he is born with the majesty of an emperor, which makes people dare not look directly at him.
After everyone knelt down and worshiped, they hurriedly left.
"Your Highness, please have your condolences."
Xihe handed over the incense with both hands.
The eunuch immediately stepped forward to take it, but the young man took it first.
His eyes were fixed on Xihe, and his eyes turned red little by little. He opened his mouth, but could not say the word "Madam", and tears overflowed from his eyes.
Xihe felt sour and tears fell down.
The eunuch next to him was startled. He looked left and right, not knowing what to do.
Xihe swallowed the sourness and said: "Your Majesty is a heavenly being. He descended to earth to overcome tribulations. This time he returns to the throne of God. Prince, please don't be too sad." Covered by his sleeves, he stuffed the prepared cakes into Meng Huaiyu's hands.
Meng Huaiyu took it and took a step back: "Thank you, madam."
After that, he was no longer a member of the Meng family.
After the worship, Xihe was arranged to rest in a side hall, but Lu had already gone to the inner room to sleep because she was not in good spirits.
Xihe had just sat down for a while when there was a knock on the door. As soon as she stood up, she saw Meng Yuchuan walking in, dressed in black, taking three steps at a time and pulling her into his arms.
The tears that Xihe was holding back suddenly became wet and wet his front.
"Did my dad do this?"
"Um."
Meng Yuchuan wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes with his thumb: "It's just that these are not important now. Madam, Huaiyu's road is not easy to follow, and as a husband, I cannot let it go."
Xihe nodded: "I know."
Meng Yuchuan smiled and sighed: "I'm afraid our family will never have a quiet life in the future."
Originally, he wanted to retire in two years, but now his plan has been disrupted, and the other princes obviously do not accept Huaiyu as emperor, and there will definitely be trouble in the future. As a father, he certainly cannot just let it go.
Xihe hugged him tightly: "It doesn't matter, I'm not afraid. Huaiyu is our child, and we should protect him."
Meng Yuchuan tightened his arms and his chest swelled: "Madam, thank you."
-
Meng Huaiyu now had a special status, and the ministers protected him so well that he did not have the chance to see anyone alone until the emperor buried him in Xihe.
As a former confidant of the emperor and the adoptive father of the current prince, Meng Yuchuan was also the first assistant.
After briefly seeing Xihe that day, he fell into a busy schedule.
After half a month of waiting for everything to be finalized, everyone in the court knew that the late prince still had a son alive, and his majesty passed the throne to him before his death.
Everyone:!!!
My jaw almost dropped in shock.
You must know that for the sake of this throne, all the princes will die and be imprisoned.
In the end, the throne was snatched away by a boy who had become a monk on the way. How can one reason with this? It is said that the seventh and ninth princes broke a lot of things in the palace.
Even the concubine who had a son was so angry that she cursed Meng Shoufu for being treacherous!
All the people: What does this have to do with the chief minister?
The founder of the figurines (Prime Minister Qiang) touched his beard and said: The secret of heaven must not be leaked.
In fact, everyone who has something to do with this matter knows it, but they just don't talk about it.
After all, Prime Minister Qiang deliberately chose a time when there were many people to say it that day for effect. Otherwise, what if his son-in-law sealed someone's family?
Now everyone knows it, and he can't hide it even if he wants to.
Prime Minister Qiang was very proud at this time. He was the prime minister and Meng Yuchuan was the chief assistant. Even if the emperor was not happy, let alone the emperor, once Meng Huaiyu's identity was exposed, he would have to fight for the throne.
After all, his and his son-in-law's status is there. Who would believe that Meng Huaiyu doesn't want to be the emperor?
Now, Meng Huaiyu has ascended the throne as the emperor, his daughter is the emperor's adoptive mother, his son-in-law is the emperor's adoptive father, and his granddaughter is the emperor's favorite sister... He can still be the prime minister for another hundred years!!!
