Chapter 222: Talking about the virtuous concubine
Mrs. Guangping Hou was summoned to the palace and saw the queen, and the queen told her that the seventh prince had grown again, "Ronghua Palace has invited a doctor again, what's the use of concealing it, a premature baby, congenital insufficiency, and early death." ”
The queen herself gave birth to a daughter, but only found her mother's joy in the seventh prince, Mrs. Guangping Hou felt that something was wrong, but now there was something more important to say, she told the rumors outside the palace and asked the mother how to deal with it.
The queen's face was a little unnatural, and she only asked who did it?
"There are different opinions about this kind of thing, where can you find the beginning so quickly, such a private thing must have come from the palace. The lady said, "Is there anyone suspicious?"
"It's either a noble concubine or a virtuous concubine, and now the three of us are fighting, and the others are not afraid, and they can't come against this palace. The queen said. "You will investigate the two of them, and when you find the evidence, the palace will present it to your majesty, and see how he thinks that the innocent concubine has committed the crime. ”
"It will take some time for this matter, and it just so happened that Hou Ye got a piece of news, saying that His Majesty was not sick at all, but was poisoned. "Throw out the news," said the lady, "and now no one is gossiping about the mother." ”
"What, Your Majesty has been poisoned?" said the Queen, standing up in astonishment.
The lady also stood up, also surprised, "Doesn't Niangniang even know?"
The queen shook her head, "I don't know in this palace, if it weren't for my sister-in-law today, I am sure that no one in the palace knows about it." ”
"Then Ronghua Palace doesn't know?"
The queen's firm words blocked her throat, and when Her Majesty was sick, the concubine took care of her every step, if Her Majesty was poisoned, would she not know?
The queen sat down backwards, and a complex emotion of powerlessness and resentment arose from her chest, and His Majesty was like this, he never regarded her as a wife when he encountered things, she was the queen, but she was not a wife who could be of the same heart and mind as His Majesty, haha, she wanted to laugh after her sadness.
She still remembers that when she first married, His Majesty was also kind and respectful to her, how did it become like this?
When the lady saw that the queen was stunned, she reminded her, "Your Majesty is not allowed to say this, and it is normal for outsiders not to know, and that is another matter." ”
"Niangniang, this rumor is a signal, indicating that whether it is a noble concubine or a virtuous concubine, they will not come to block again, but take the initiative to attack, Niangniang must make plans early. ”
The queen nodded, "This palace is still the queen now, but it depends on what they dare to do to this palace." ”
When Mrs. Guangping Hou left the palace, she asked the palace maid of Ditai Palace, how did Princess Lijia make the palace maid look confused, and the princess lived in another palace, and she should live well.
Madame was amazed in her heart that the queen mother didn't care about the princess at all. Forget it when I was a child, and now the princess has remembered, and the mother is still like this, how much is left of this mother-daughter relationship.
The queen thought about it for two days, and asked Concubine Xian to Shanglin Garden, and the queen looked at the liveliness of the garden, and couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that no one appreciates such a good spring." ”
"Isn't Niangniang admiring it now?" Concubine Xian said, she couldn't figure out what the queen suddenly came to her for, she couldn't just enjoy the flowers, in short, the water came to cover it.
"Originally, when we were in the palace, we still enjoyed the flowers. The queen said, "It's just that the wisteria in Ronghua Palace is blooming more and more, and no one comes to enjoy the flowers anymore." ”
Concubine Xian lowered her head and drank tea, but did not answer this.
"I don't know if I'm getting old, but I've been thinking about the past a lot lately. The queen said, "The palace still remembers that when you first entered the palace, you were brittle, when the concubine had not yet entered the palace, His Majesty's favorite was you, and he often stayed with you, and other women in the backyard envied you, soured you, or the palace gave you a siege." ”
"The mother is in her prime, and she is still far from old age. Concubine Xian picked up the easiest answer and replied.
"This palace also wanted to be a good wife back then, but somehow, it became like this. The queen said melancholy, "You also feel that this palace is unbearable." ”
"The concubine didn't dare. Concubine Xian said.
"When you were favored back then, the palace was still able to relieve you from the siege, and the concubine was favored, but the palace was suffering more and more day by day. The queen said, "This palace is not reconciled. ”
"Are you willing?" the queen asked rhetorically, "You and I are both famous ladies, father and brother are illustrious, what is Qin Yunyi? She is just the daughter of a criminal minister, even if His Majesty took her directly from home to the mansion, the will of the first emperor was clearly written, she was going to send the sect to the sect, how can such a slut be on an equal footing with us, and even, she may even crush us." ”
Concubine Xian didn't speak.
"I don't believe it, you really don't care. The queen said. "You were not afraid of her in the palace at the beginning, why are you so weak now. ”
"I don't know what Niangniang came to me to say today?" said Concubine Xian, "When the concubine sacrificed her life to jump off the horse to save Roujia's life, at that time, I swore that I would not be an enemy of the concubine in this life." ”
"Whatever the mother wants to say, she has found the wrong person. ”
"Roujia is your daughter, isn't the second prince your son?" the queen asked, "You don't want to be an enemy of the concubine for Roujia, don't you even want to fight for the second prince?"
Concubine Xian paused, "Establishing an heir is a state affair, not something that I can get by fighting, everything is up to Your Majesty to decide." ”
"Your Majesty. The queen snorted coldly, "Your Majesty's heart has gone to Ronghua Palace, and all the princes together are not as good as a milk doll in Ronghua Palace." ”
The conversation between the queen and the concubine did not bear fruit.
After that, the queen and the concubine had a few small arguments, the queen had cold eyebrows and cold eyes, and the concubine spoke with a smile and poked at the pain points, which often made the queen change her face instantly, and she could hardly hold her demeanor.
Leaving the Ditai Palace, Concubine Lu and Concubine Yao said, "It's only now that I see the gods fighting." I'll just say it, the concubine didn't compete with the people in the harem before, not for other reasons, but because she didn't look down on it. ”
"Anyway, they quarrel with them, and we don't mix. Concubine Yao said.
"Of course not. Concubine Lu said, "I just don't know who became the prince in the end?"
"Whoever becomes the prince will not affect our lives, but will be mixed in and harm others and ourselves. Concubine Yao said.
"I don't have the guts. Concubine Lu said, "I'm just worried about how to hide it from Your Majesty, the third prince likes to play with wood." ”
"It's not a big deal. Concubine Yao said.
"Concubine Song's face looks better, I heard the third prince say that Concubine Song is extremely meticulous to the five princes, and she doesn't force the five princes to call her mother in private, I think the day when the five princes change their words to call their mothers is also coming soon. ”
"Your Majesty has decided that it is good for him that the Fifth Prince's acceptance will be accepted as soon as possible. Concubine Yao said, "Concubine Jia was originally a smart person, but a smart person has gone the wrong way, and it is true that she can no longer teach her children, in case the child loses sex, it will be a disaster among the brothers." ”
"Now the two princes are long, sensible and reasonable, and the rest of the princes have their own cuteness, if they have been growing up like this, brothers and friends will be respectful in the future, which is also a good story. ”
"It's all good now. It's just the youngest two, I don't know what kind of character it will be?" Concubine Lu sighed.
This year's weather is a little abnormal, it is only in May that the heat is unbearable, His Majesty asked people to prepare to go to the palace in June to escape the summer, in this regard, Qin Yunyi is worried, "Your Majesty's body is still not suitable to run, let people put more ice cubes, why bother to go to the palace, the palace is not as comprehensive as the palace." ”
"Even if it's not hot this year, every day during the rainy period, I have to go to the palace to escape the heat, do you know why?" Qi Zongwen said with a smile.
"Your Majesty has already gone to court, and the civil and military officials have also seen Your Majesty, why are you still not at ease?" Qin Yunyi wondered.
"Before, I just knew that I was cured, and I was naturally relieved to see people standing well, but now it's not rumored that I have been poisoned outside, and this poison is so scary to say, just standing can not be satisfied, I have to do more to prove that I am very good. ”
"What's more, rumors have flowed into the market, and the people can't see me, but it's just that everyone is in the clouds, and I go to the palace for a trip, which is the fastest and best way. Qi Zongwen said, "Don't worry, you go with me, are you still worried that I won't get good care?"
Miao An said to Niangniang in private, "Niangniang really wants to take the Eighth Prince to the Imperial Palace? There are many trees and water in the Imperial Palace, the weather is cool, and the adults are comfortable to stay, and the Eighth Prince can't stand the wind." ”
"It's okay, take him. Qin Yunyi said, "It's not uncomfortable to be hot, besides, I have to follow Your Majesty, leaving him alone in the palace, I don't worry." ”
