Qi Zongwen went to Ronghua Palace, it was rare that there was no expression on his face, Qin Yunyi asked for peace, he didn't come forward to catch her, teased Xiaoba for a while, and asked people to hug the eighth prince down, he had something to say to the concubine.

Seeing this, Qin Yunyi made the palace people avoid it.

Personally served tea to His Majesty, "Did I make Your Majesty angry?"

"What are you talking about with Lijia?" Qi Zongwen said, "Now that outsiders are rumoring that you are falling out between Lijia and the queen, can't you keep your distance from Lijia first?"

"Me. Before Qin Yunyi could say anything, Qi Zongwen said again, "Do you think that I won't know that you went to see Lijia when I went to the court? Even if I don't know, others don't know?"

"Since Your Majesty said so, I won't be able to go in the future. Qin Yunyi said, "I just feel sorry for a child like Lijia at a young age, trapped in a nightmare, I think I have some experience, so I can forgive her." ”

"I know you mean well. ”

"But you're not Lijia's biological mother, there are some things you can't do, and there are some things you can't say. Qi Zongwen said.

"I see. ”

Qi Zongwen sighed heavily, Lijia's matter really made him tricky, "She also asked me to find someone for Chunzhi, the person I was looking for, is Chunzhi worthy?"

"Nonsense. ”

Qin Yunyi was cleaning up Xiaoba's toys on the side, and didn't speak, Qi Zongwen waited for a long time and no one answered, and looked at her again, "Why don't you speak, and you're still angry with me?"

"Nope. Qin Yunyi said, "It's not Your Majesty who said it, it's better that I won't say anything about Lijia." ”

"I told you not to tell Lijia, I didn't say you can't tell me. ”

"I'm not Lijia's biological mother, and there are some things that I can't say in front of Lijia or in front of His Majesty. Qin Yunyi said, "Your Majesty already suspects me of arching the fire in the middle, what else do I say." ”

"Aren't you making trouble unreasonably?" Qi Zongwen said angrily, "I'm already annoyed, do you want to make me even more angry?"

Qin Yunyi was a little soft-hearted when she heard this, and wanted to be coquettish and softly say no, but His Majesty followed closely, "If you hadn't messed up with Lijia's ideas, would I be so annoying?"

Qin Yunyi's face turned cold, "If Your Majesty wants to say so, I can't help it." Then he kept his head down, indicating that he had nothing to say.

Qi Zongwen sat down for a while, put the teacup on the table, got up and left.

Qin Yunyi only felt that his eyes were hot, and he turned his head a little embarrassed to wipe away his tears, and Miao Ning came in, "Niangniang, why did Your Majesty leave." ”

"I got angry and left. Qin Yunyi said, "Leave him alone." ”

"But why should Your Majesty be angry?" Miao Ning was puzzled, since she came to Ronghua Palace, she had never seen His Majesty angry with her mother.

"I'm angry that I talk a lot. Qin Yunyi said, "If I hadn't seen Lijia's eyes, you thought I would have to tell her that, the poor child was scared like that by his mother, and he didn't dare to tell his father, if I didn't come up with an idea, would it be like watching the child being forced to die?"

"I have a good heart and am treated as a donkey's liver and lungs. Qin Yunyi tugged at the puppet in his hand angrily, "You also said believe me, I'm not Lijia's biological mother, will I hurt her?"

"The more I think about it, the more angry I get. Qin Yunyi stood up, "I'll go to Ganquan Palace to swim twice to vent the fire." ”

Qi Zongwen thought in his heart that a Chunzhi was not worth anything, if he was at odds with his mother, he would definitely not put things on the table because of a palace person, especially when he was still fledgling.

But who told him to hurt his daughter, since Lijia spoke, he couldn't directly give Chunzhi to the queen, in the final analysis, the queen is not good, the child is not sensible, what is she more energetic than the child, Chunzhi has long passed the flowering period, I was not in a hurry before, and now I am in a hurry to find Chunzhi, Chunzhi is already Lijia's palace person, she is the queen mother, and her hand is too long.

The matter of Chunzhi was secondary, and he knew that Lijia was so reluctant to marry into the Jiang family, which was a problem. Although he hadn't considered the Jiang family yet, subconsciously, the Jiang family was the last choice. Lijia's body, personality, and now her reputation for disobeying her mother, it is still a little difficult to make a good choice.

Hulutou Hutong is a narrow alley sandwiched between the north and south cities, it doesn't look obvious, in fact, it is inhabited by the rich slaves in the big families, and the small doors are carefully arranged.

Mama Cui sat cross-legged on the kang, with warm wine and a few dishes on the small kang table in front of her, and in front of her sat an equally rich mama, with gold rings on her ears, and two gold rings and an agate ring on her chubby fingers, with a smile on her face, "Old sister is free, but let me please." ”

"It's not me holding the shelf, you know, my wife is sick, no, I just found a vacancy. Cui Mama said.

"Yes. Mama Liu said, "Our Mrs. Hou also goes to visit every day, and I hope that Mrs. Sister-in-law will get better soon." "It turns out that this Mama Cui is the grandmother next to Mrs. Guangping Hou, and this Mama Liu is the grandmother next to Mrs. Xia Bohou.

"Actually, the second lady doesn't need to worry, but she went to the palace for my wife to persuade the queen, which used to be my wife's sister-in-law, but now it's the second sister-in-law's turn to go in to see the queen. Cui Mama said. Although the two brothers of the Jiang family are each marquis, and the wives are also the wives of the family, but inside, they are still called the eldest lady and the second lady as ordinary people.

"That's what I said, but my wife can't speak as well as the eldest lady, and she won't judge the situation and adapt to the situation, so I'm afraid I won't be able to persuade my mother. Mama Liu said.

This queen is becoming more and more stubborn, even the eldest lady can't resist and can only pretend to be sick to deal with it, it is normal for Mrs. Xia Bohou not to dare to enter the palace, no, let her ask if there is any trick to deal with the Tai Palace, so she has fooled a few times, and then she has to be the eldest lady.

Otherwise, the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother.

"Actually, I said that the second lady was too worried. Cui Mama took a sip of wine, "No matter what the mother does, she just complains a few words to her mother-in-law, and the second lady listens to it, and she will come out when the time comes." ”

When Hou Ye asked, he only sighed and said that the mother was too bitter, and it would be done, but as for persuasion, it would not be possible. Cui Mama said, "It's also the Hou Ye who is worried, Niangniang is a good wife who can be married to the media, and has Princess Lijia, who is deeply favored by His Majesty, and still has the Seven Princes under her knees, how can Your Majesty easily abolish the queen, blindly persuade Niangniang to forbear, I don't know how to let Niangniang endure it, starting from the palace, only Niangniang is grinding the concubine's share, and now let Niangniang endure it, how can I tolerate it." ”

"In the past, we made people gossip about the concubine outside, but the result only provoked His Majesty to pity her more, and the reputation of this former lady was damaged, and I didn't see Your Majesty's pity. Cui Mama said, "It can be seen that men's pity is divided into people, Hou Ye thinks simply, and thinks that Niangniang can get a moment of pity from His Majesty if he shows weakness now." ”

"Isn't this a sign of weakness for the mother, and also for outsiders to be pitied?" said Mama Liu.

"Difficult. Mama Cui shook her head, "Unless the concubine herself is dizzy, how can others believe it." "Although the concubine has always had the reputation of being dominant, but she really has to study it carefully, she has never done those things, Your Majesty likes a woman, is it wrong to protect a woman.

"I really don't know what kind of ecstasy the concubine gave His Majesty, it's been more than ten years, Your Majesty still loves her and loves her, and now for her, even the draft has stopped. Mama Liu said.

"By the way, the second lady entered the palace and only Ying and Niangniang, saying that the concubine was charming, and the good days were not long, so she persuaded Niangniang to grind her days later, and now she has to be patient first. Cui Mama said.

The two of them drank a little wine, the more they drank, and in the end they were a little drunk, Mama Liu didn't know what to mention, and then Mama Cui said drunkenly. "Actually, it's really speaking, our mother is really not smart, originally Hou Ye had the evidence of the concubine's big crime in his hand, but he didn't expect the mother to be reckless in the palace and frame the concubine's people, but in the end, he didn't fall well, and Hou Ye regretted a good move in his hand. ”

"What's a good move?"

"I tell you, don't tell anyone else. Cui Mama said mysteriously, "Do you know why the concubine gave birth to her first one at such an old age?"

Mama Liu shook her head.

"The concubine deliberately didn't give birth. Cui Mama said, "The concubine has a doctor outside the palace, and he has been giving her medicine, but she can't get pregnant after taking the medicine." ”

"Why?" said Mama Liu.

"Why are you saying this?" Cui Mama asked rhetorically, in fact, she also heard a few words from others, and now she can't take it for granted at all by showing off her wine.

Mama Liu thought about it before and after, "Is it because of the concubine's family?"

Mama Cui slapped her thigh. "This is it. ”

"Do you think, the first emperor killed the whole family of the concubine, and the concubine can really follow His Majesty without any guilt?" Cui Mama said, "When do you think she conceived the Eighth Prince?

In fact, the cause and effect here are wrong, it was His Majesty who knew that the concubine was pregnant, and for the sake of the child, he made up his mind to overturn the case for the Qin family.

"I see. ”

"You think. This matter is going to be stabbed to His Majesty, can the concubine please it?" Cui Mama said, "It's a pity that the mother can't hold her breath, and in order to take a palace maid out, she lost such a good opportunity in vain." ”
