Chapter 97 Don't Even Think About It

Minister of the Ministry of Officials said: "Now the empress dowager refuses to see her, and she doesn't order the prince to oversee the country, let alone take charge of the country. What should we do? It's not a solution for us to spend so much time. Instead, Murong Chuan will take the initiative to suppress us."

Mrs. Liang's face was gloomy, and he didn't speak, the light in his eyes became more and more serious, as if he already had a calculation in his heart.

The empress dowager sat on the high seat, looking at King Nanhuai who had not seen him for several years, she was naturally touched.

"Get up, let the queen mother take a look."

King Nanhuai stepped forward, knelt down again, and fell on the Empress Dowager's lap, crying bitterly.

"The son and minister are not filial. They failed to welcome the mother's queen's knees, and even made the mother worry about the son and minister." King Nanhuai cried very sadly, and his tears soaked the empress dowager's skirt.

The empress dowager couldn't help but feel distressed, and also shed tears, "You are alone in the southern country, it's hard for you."

"No, I deserve what I deserve. I was too young and energetic at the beginning, and my heart was high. It was right for the emperor to relegate my minister to the Southern Kingdom. In the past few years, I have been constantly reflecting on my mistakes and interacting with famous people in the Southern Kingdom. In the world, my minister is really wrong. It's just that my minister is in the southern country, and I don't know the emperor..." He said, his voice choked up, and the man's tears kept falling, he was very sad.

The empress dowager hugged him and sighed sadly, "The fate of the country is bad, the fate of the country is bad!"

The emperor was seriously ill, Ah Jie was in charge, but these things happened again, what happened these years?

Eunuch Sun saw that both of them were crying together, so he stepped forward and said, "My lord, the noble concubine was also injured a few days ago, and with the matter of the regent, she is too sad and unable to hold herself, you should hurry out of the palace." Go and stay with her, lest she be overwhelmed."

The empress dowager let go of him, and wiped the corners of her eyes, "Yes, you hurry to accompany your concubine mother. She lost her son in old age and experienced great pain in the world. She really needs the company of her relatives. You should go quickly."

King Nanhuai kowtowed his head a few times, knocked heavily on the ground, and there was a thud, the empress dowager hurriedly helped him up with his own hands, "Okay, okay, you should take care of yourself."

King Nanhuai cried and said: "Let my minister kowtow a few more times. These years, my minister has really missed my mother and everyone. During festivals, my son kowtows in the direction of the capital, but my mother can't see it. "

The empress dowager's heart softened. She was still wary and worried about his return to Beijing, but now it seems that he has really changed his mind and blurted out, "My child, why is the empress willing to let you stay in the southern country? This time When you come back, spend more time with your mother, your mother and concubine, and let's not mention the matter of returning to the southern country."

King Nanhuai shook his head, "No, I will go back after my brother's funeral. If the mother misses me, I will return to Beijing to visit."

The empress dowager said pitifully: "You are a much more sensible child, and the Ai family is relieved of you. Okay, you can go back, and we will talk about the future."

Eunuch Sun was listening and couldn't help shaking his head. The Empress Dowager is always soft-hearted.

After King Nanhuai left, the Empress Dowager wiped away her tears and said, "This child is dark and thin now, it seems that life in the southern country is very hard."

Eunuch Sun said: "Yes, the southern country is close to the sea, the sun is very strong, and the sea breeze can also hurt the skin. The prince is from the capital, and he is not used to the climate and diet. Naturally, he is thinner."

"King Nanhuai has changed a lot, and he is a different person from before. Our worries are unnecessary." The Empress Dowager said.

Eunuch Sun said indifferently: "The Empress Dowager, from the southern country to the sea and returned to the inland, and then returned to Beijing from the inland. It is conceivable that the king of Nanhuai can return so quickly. This kind of heart makes people..."

He stopped talking and didn't speak too clearly, hoping that the empress dowager could understand it herself.

The Empress Dowager naturally understood, but she reproached slightly: "You, worrying too much, he hurried back day and night, there is nothing to doubt, could he have known about Ah Jie's accident? Absurd, must be getting the news Then I returned to Beijing."

When Eunuch Sun saw what she said, he stopped defending and just kept an eye out.

From issuing the decree to receiving the decree and returning, the time was too fast, and I had to guard against it, especially since he was still the King of Nanhuai.

King Nanhuai left the palace, got on his horse, and hurried to the Prince Regent's Palace.

When the noble concubine saw her son who had been away for many years, she broke down in tears, "You are back."

King Nanhuai gently pushed her away, "Concubine Mu, why did his body disappear? Didn't you send someone to look for it?"

"I've looked for it, but it doesn't matter if you can find it or not, your elder brother is dead after all, and it was mother and concubine who watched him die with her own eyes." The noble concubine wept sadly.

King Nanhuai heard that he had watched him die with his own eyes, so his expression softened, "Who did it for the body to be stolen? Didn't the concubine have any doubts?"

"It should be Xiao Tuo who did it. He wanted to conceal the news of your brother's death and stabilize the government. However, everyone in Beijing now knows that even if he hides the body, it will not help."

King Nanhuai nodded, "Xiao Tuo has to be on guard. Also, who is Xia Zian? When Erchen was outside the city, he ordered people to inquire about the news. People in the capital said that Xia Zian took him away. "

"Xia Zi'an, Prime Minister Xia's daughter..." The imperial concubine told Nanhuai King about Zi'an's origin and recent things related to Zi'an, and finally added, "No matter how good this Xia Zi'an's medical skills are, Gao Ming is useless, she is already dead."

King Nanhuai didn't care too much about Xia Zian. After all, he was just an unfavored daughter of the prime minister's family. If a weak woman was tied up in a mass grave, she would definitely not survive.

There was a burst of ecstasy in his heart, and what he had planned for many years was finally coming into his hands.

However, his ecstasy was only maintained for a while, and he said: "Next, we will expose in public the fact that Liang Taifu colluded with the crown prince to ambush and kill the current regent."

The noble concubine asked, "Where are your soldiers and horses?"

King Nanhuai sneered, "Here we are, just thirty miles outside the city, temporarily stationed in the woods so that no one will find out. Over the years, I have been cultivating influence in the capital, so there are many of my people in the capital. Now only When the prince's crimes are exposed, he will be able to respond to everyone."

Concubine Gui breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, okay, Concubine Mother is counting on you."

She looked at King Nanhuai, and said seriously: "However, Concubine Mu has a request, and you must agree to it."

King Nanhuai said: "Even if the concubine mother orders, don't say one request, even if there are ten, the sons and ministers will all agree."

The imperial concubine said: "Although your brothers are at odds, but this time the Ai family sacrificed your elder brother to protect you. Once you gain power, the emperor will die in the future, and you will be crowned emperor. Your elder brother must also be named emperor. do you know?"

King Nanhuai assured: "Mother and concubine, don't worry, the emperor sacrificed for me. Even if I have a lot of dissatisfaction with him for not being a brother, now that the lights are gone and everything disappears, I will always remember that he is my brother." brother."

He will give him a posthumous title, but posthumous title as emperor? Does he have this blessing?
