Chapter 674 Concession

  The two prime ministers did not want to offend the prince nor the queen mother.

  They simply pretended not to understand the meaning of the Queen Mother, and knelt down together, shouting that His Royal Highness must take care of your body!

  The queen mother waited for a while and couldn't help being a little angry if she didn't wait for them to follow.

  "Aren’t you very good at talking on weekdays? Why don’t you continue talking today?"

  The two prime ministers lowered their heads, as if they were honestly admitting their mistakes.

   "The empress dowager has taught her the lesson, and the ministers know their mistakes."

  They said they knew their mistakes, but they didn't mean to correct them at all.

   too angry to look ugly behind.

  She hated these two old guys in her heart.

  They just deliberately pretend to understand, the old and cunning things!

  Don’t let her find opportunities in the future, otherwise she will have to teach these two old guys severely!

  No one around her was willing to speak for herself, and the queen mother herself couldn’t speak of the prince. She was forced to make a concession.

   "Prince, no matter what you think, you can tell the Aijia well, as long as you don't violate the palace rules and national laws, the Aijia can promise you, you must not think about it."

   Although the queen mother had the idea of ​​abolishing the prince, it was when the emperor was still alive.

  There is an emperor in town, even if she wants to change the prince, she can be justified, and there will be less trouble in the process.

  But now the emperor is dead, and he has left a photo to let the prince succeed.

  Civil and military officials have also known about this.

  If the crown prince suddenly has three longs and two shorts at this time, the ruling and the opposition will surely be in chaos.

  The regent is still fleeing, what if he comes back from the chaos to try to usurp the throne?

  The Queen Mother dare not gamble on this in case.

  Li Qiong’s voice came through the door.

   "The royal grandmother is serious about this?"

  Seeing that there is still room for change, the queen mother hurriedly seized the opportunity and responded quickly.

  "The two prime ministers are here, and with their testimony, the Aijia must speak up!"

  A moment later.

  The door was pushed open, and Li Qiong, wearing a white plain clothes, stepped out.

  He has loose hair and holds a sword in his hand.

  The sword is sharp and sharp, and everyone present is frightened.

"The grandmother of the emperor, the saint's parents who have a hair and skin, the grandson can neither watch the mother and concubine die, nor can they violate the father's last wish. For the present, the only way is to cut off the hair to offset the mother and concubine. My fate, I beg the emperor's grandmother for permission."

  After finishing speaking, Li Qiong grabbed his hair and raised his sword to cut it.

  This scene frightened everyone present.

  The Queen Mother exclaimed, "Never!"

  The imperial concubine Zhen rushed forward regardless, grabbing the blade with both hands to prevent Li Qiong's blade from falling.

  The sharp blade cut through the palm of his hand, blood overflowed, and he fell ticking down his wrist.

  Li Qiong hurriedly released the sword: "Mother concubine, what are you doing?"

  Zhen imperial concubine also let go, letting the sword fall.

  She spread her hands, her delicate and white palms were already bloody.

   She choked.

   "Good boy, I know you are filial.

  But as a prince, you are the future emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. How can an emperor cut his hair since ancient times?

  You must not break the rules and damage the face of the emperor. "

  Li Qiong is eager and authentic.

   "How can the life of the mother and concubine be important to the rules and face?

  As long as the mother and the concubine or the son are willing to do anything.

  Don't talk about this, you go in and sit down, and your son will send someone to get a doctor. "

However, the imperial concubine Zhen endured the pain and pushed her son away, bending over to pick up the sword.

  She tore off the beaded hairpin on her head, and thousands of green silks poured down like a waterfall.

  The queen mother sternly scolded: "What are you doing? Put down the sword!"

  The imperial concubine Zhen looked at the Queen Mother with tears, and said every word.

  "The saint wanted to bury his concubine, and the concubine did not dare to obey, but Qiong'er was still young, and the concubine couldn't worry about him.

  The empress dowager is also a mother. I think you should understand this feeling well.

  Today's affairs were originally caused by the concubine's body. Even if you want to cut your hair, you should cut your concubine's hair. "

   After finishing speaking, she waved the sword in the eyes of so many stunned eyes, and cut off her head and shoulders.

  The black and blue silks floated to the ground one after another.

  The Queen Mother was so shocked that she was a little stunned to speak.

   "You, did you come here for real?"

  Hair is both face and dignity for a woman.

  Now that the imperial concubine Zhen has cut her hair in public, it is undoubtedly a loss of face. How will she continue to live in the palace in the future?

  Li Qiong directly cried: "Mother concubine! Ma concubine, you can't do this!"

The court ladies and eunuchs all knelt down, their heads lowered, and they didn't dare to breathe.

  The two prime ministers on the left and right looked at each other, and both saw the unexpected look in each other's eyes.

  They really did not expect Zhen Guifei to be so decisive.

  Such a beautiful long black hair, I don’t know how much effort it took to grow it.

  She said that she would cut and cut, and she didn't hesitate to pick up the knife and drop it. It's really amazing!

  Things were up to this point, the queen mother knew that she would definitely make a compromise, but she was still unwilling.

  She didn't want to let the imperial concubine Zhen escape so easily.

   said with a cold face.

   "The Aijia didn't want to force the imperial concubine Zhen to die, but it was the emperor's edict to let the imperial concubine Zhen be buried. If only cutting a little hair could resist his life, the Aijia could not explain it to the emperor under Jiuquan."

  She looked at the two prime ministers on the left and right again, and forced her to ask.

"what do y'all think?"

  This time they didn't pretend to be foolish anymore, and responded honestly.

   "What the Empress Dowager said is extremely true."

Concubine Zhen Zhen knelt down at this time and said to the Queen Mother.

  "Since the concubine's hair has been cut off, it means that the concubine's body has been cut off.

  After the saint’s first seven days passed, the concubine moved to Shuiyun Temple.

  From then on, the ancient Buddha with blue lanterns every day, chanting and praying for the saint and the queen mother, never intervening in the mundane affairs. "

  The Queen Mother was a little excited.

  If the imperial concubine Zhen really moves out of the palace to make a ordination, everything in the harem will be her queen mother in the future.

  She doesn’t have to worry about threats to her status.

  Queen Mother: "The life in the nunnery is very hard. Are you sure you can bear it?"

  Zhen Guifei: "As long as I can pray for you and the saint, my concubine can eat any bitterness."

  Speaking of this, the queen mother no longer had any scruples and agreed to her request.

  The imperial concubine Zhen was so grateful that she shed tears.

   "Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your fulfillment."

  Quick concubine Zhen left, and soon the imperial doctor hurried over to help concubine Zhen's injury.

  After the wound is treated, Li Qiong backs away.

  He looked at Concubine Zhen’s gauze-wrapped hands, and then at her shoulder-length short hair, his eyes were red again.

   "The son is useless, so I can only use this stupid way to make the mother and concubine wronged."

  The imperial concubine Zhen said softly and comforted: "It's just a little injury, this little sacrifice is worthwhile."

  Li Qiong solemnly promised.

  "You can rest assured that in the future, when your son is firmly seated on the throne, he will find a way to get you back."

  Zhen Guifei helped him wipe the tears from his face with the back of her hand, and said warmly.

   "As long as you can do well, even if the main palace stays in the temple for a lifetime, the main palace will be willing."
