After the rebirth, the empress took the tragic script of Meiqiang

Chapter 86 Acting

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing." After reporting Chu Dingguo's affairs, Li Baoquan remembered another matter. He should have reported it long ago, but he had been running outside in the morning, and the emperor was meeting with foreign ministers, and he could not find him.

opportunity.

"After the court recessed in the morning, Mr. Chen Ge came here once, but he was rejected by the servant because His Majesty's dragon body was not in good shape and could not meet the guests. But according to what Mr. Chen Ge said, I am afraid he will come again later today."

There were only three days until the engagement ceremony, but the Chen family suddenly lost the position of queen. Finally, the old guy Chen Yuansi couldn't sit still.

"Mr. Chen Ge has always been calm, but it seems that he is really anxious this time." Ye Qinghuai turned the chopstick pillow on the table with one hand and said unhurriedly.

"Auntie, let the servants in the palace share these meals." Ye Qinghuai rinsed her mouth, wiped her mouth, stood up, and ordered, "I am weak and have no appetite. I didn't eat a bite today.

.”

After saying that, she left the table with a stern expression.

Behind her, Aunt Fanghua and two palace maids lowered their eyes and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."

——

When the sun set in the west, Chen Yuansi arrived as expected.

The windows and doors in the Qinxian Palace were closed, and the best ambergris was burned in the golden incense burner. Ye Qinghuai was only wearing a thick white coat and was weakly leaning on the bright yellow couch.

A green-blue glazed medicinal bowl with some medicinal residue remaining at the bottom of the bowl.

Ye Qinghuai hung one arm and leaned on the soft cushion behind him. His face was pale and it seemed very difficult to even raise his eyes.

When Chen Yuansi saw Ye Qinghuai's appearance, his face paused briefly, then he knelt on the ground with trembling old bones, his eyes were swollen and he cried bitterly: "Your Majesty must make the decision for me!"

"Chen Ge, don't be like this. Get up and talk." Ye Qinghuai's voice was so weak that it was just breathy. She held on to the edge of the cave as if she wanted to get up, but she didn't have the strength to stand up, so she could only raise her hand from a distance.

He signaled Chen Yuansi to stand up.

Chen Yuansi was shocked. He had thought that the emperor was just sad because of Concubine Lan's death, so he didn't want to see anyone. He didn't expect that he actually became so sick overnight.

He looked worse than the sixty-year-old man he was.

This scene suddenly reminded him of Emperor Shunping's appearance eight years ago.

Many thoughts passed through his mind at once.

While he was in trance, Ye Qinghuai slowly got down from the couch. She walked to Chen Yuansi, held his arms and tried to pull him up, but she couldn't find any strength in her hands.

No.

"Mr. Chen Ge, I also want to make the decision for you, but it's really difficult for me." Ye Qinghuai half-hunched her waist, breathing heavily as she spoke, as if she was about to faint at any moment.

Chen Yuansi came back to his senses, took Ye Qinghuai's arm, knelt on the ground and cried: "Your Majesty, the engagement ceremony is coming soon, the etiquette department has prepared the schedule, and the wedding clothes and gifts have been sent to the house. Your Majesty suddenly changed his mind at this time.

, how should my humble granddaughter handle herself, and where should I put my old face?"

After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and covered his face, as if he was too embarrassed to see anyone.

"Does that mean I want to change my mind?" Ye Qinghuai asked with a bitter smile, "Mr. Chen Ge, you were not here yesterday, but you should have heard that at that time, there were all the imperial guards outside Chengtian Gate who were under the orders of Mr. Gu Ge, and I was only one person.

With one strike of sword, I almost couldn't get away. Chen Ge said he was embarrassed, how could I not be embarrassed? To put it more harshly, Gu Ge almost put the sword on my neck, not to mention the position of a queen, even if he cares about it

The elder wants me to take the Zen position, but I don’t dare to say ‘no’.”

At the end of the sentence, Ye Qinghuai's eyes were red. She coughed twice weakly, staggered a few steps, barely held on to the tea table, sat firmly on the wooden chair beside her, covered her face and cried.

Chen Yuansi did not expect that the emperor would cry even more aggrieved than himself. For a moment, it was useless for him to cry again. He simply sighed heavily and comforted Ye Qinghuai: "Your Majesty, take care of the dragon body."

Ye Qinghuai sobbed for a while before she stopped. She raised her head and looked at Chen Yuansi and said: "Mr. Chen Ge, it's fine if the courtiers don't listen to me. You are still in charge of the cabinet. He, Gu Shihai, is afraid after all. I

I can feel relieved. But now that the harem is full of his people, even the Imperial Army dares to hurt me like this."

Ye Qinghuai said, pointing to his bandaged left shoulder.

"Next month, his daughter will enter the middle palace again. Mr. Chen Ge, do you think I can sleep peacefully one day?" Ye Qinghuai's words were filled with resentment towards Gu Shihai who dared not express his anger.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Gu's thoughts are no longer on one day or two. When Your Majesty first ascended the throne, he built a new mansion. At that time, something happened and was reported to the cabinet."

Chen Yuansi said slowly: "The stone lions in ordinary people's homes have their feet on embroidered balls. Only the stone lions in the palace have their feet on the cauldron, to show that His Majesty is the master of the nine cauldrons in the world. But when Mr. Gu Ge built a new mansion, his door

The stone lion outside was stepping on the cauldron. If the Ministry of Industry had not found out in time and impeached him, his treasonous thoughts would have been known to everyone."

This was the first time Ye Qinghuai had heard of it. She had just ascended the throne at that time and was not in charge, so this matter did not come to her attention.

Chen Yuansi brought up this matter at this time to hint that Ye Qinghuai's ambition for Gu Shihai was far more than just the position of queen, and it was very likely that he had been planning it for a long time.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say that you don't like to hear. You are too reckless this time regarding the Chengtian Clan. Your Majesty has no heirs, how can you play with your own life like this?" Chen Yuansi said it painfully.

He really never expected that the emperor would personally fight out of the palace with his sword and stop the imperial army single-handedly.

When he first heard the news, he was stunned for a moment.

Chen Yuansi is also a person who has experienced great storms and waves. He has never seen anything, but the fact that the emperor took the lead in rebellion is really unheard of.

What's more, in his impression, the emperor was just a child who had no interest in government affairs.

If he knew that the emperor would be so impulsive, he would never sit back and watch the emperor put himself into Gu Shihai's mouth and let him eat his flesh.

Now he regretted it so much. On the one hand, he hated the emperor for acting recklessly. On the other hand, he hated Gu Shihai for not following the rules and actually wanted to get married in advance.

No matter how much you regret, it is of no use now.

"Mr. Chen Ge, as long as I have someone I can rely on, I won't be so desperate. Unfortunately, Mr. Chen Ge was ill before. I sent people to invite him several times but couldn't. I really have no choice but to do it." Ye Qinghuai.

He sighed and said regretfully, "What a pity for your granddaughter. I really had a rapport with her and fell in love with her at first sight. Alas..."

"Your Majesty, I have a heartfelt request."

"Mr. Chen Ge, please speak."

"Maybe Your Majesty will bring the old minister's granddaughter into the palace?"
