Chapter 224: Confrontation Without Gunpowder
The Ulanala clan was naturally very satisfied with my performance, and before Li Shi could recover and open his mouth, he said loudly: "That's it, it's all the habits in the house that haven't been changed, just pay attention to it in the future." www.biquge.info Concubine Qi doesn't have to be familiar with Concubine Yu in general, the order of the seats when everyone asks for peace has been discussed with the emperor, if Concubine Qi thinks there is anything wrong, why don't you mention it when the emperor is free to go to you. ”
Wulanala is a god mending knife, she knows that Yinzhen will not step into Chengqian half a step, but she pretends not to know and say this to Li, it is no less than directly stabbing Li's heart with a knife.
I didn't care whether Li accepted my "apology" or not, and sat down again at the signal of the Ulanala clan, ignoring the Li clan with a hideous expression on his face, looking down at the tip of his nose, looking at his nose and nose, and a more brilliant and obvious "what can you do with me" smile appeared on my lips than Li at that time.
No matter how bold the Li family is, they don't dare to directly contempt the imperial power, and the words of the Ulanala clan actually gave the Li family a step, even if the Li family is angry and corrupt, he will not have a brain to enter the water at this time, and he does not know the point of retreating, so he sat down in the vacant position next to the Nian clan with a cold face, and when he was about to go to get the tea bowl, he caught a glimpse of the Wu clan who had been ignored just now.
Wu kept her head down and looked silently at the handkerchief in her hand from beginning to end, as if everything that had just happened had nothing to do with her. But such a demeanor happened to be a sign of secretly laughing at her in the eyes of the angry Li family, especially when she saw Wu's young and pretty face, she was even more angry, and as soon as she picked up the tea cup, she suddenly took off her hand and threw it in the direction of Wu's family, and shouted in her mouth, "It's so hot, which one who doesn't have long eyes wants to burn me to death." The Wu family, who was sitting next to her, didn't have time to dodge, and the tea splashed all over his face, looking very embarrassed.
The palace maids in the palace are specially trained to make tea, and the tea served is usually just right, neither too cold nor too hot. The Li family did this obviously to insinuate that the palace maids in the Yongshou Palace were not trained well, and at the same time, they were angry with the Wu family, who had little to do and no background. Fortunately, the tea was only a little hot, and it was not as exaggerated as Li said, so as not to hurt Wu's good skin. But in this way, the Wu clan must have a grudge against the Li clan.
I secretly think that this Li family really has its own hatred value, and he can make enemies for himself wherever he goes, but although such people have no brains, most of them have their own backgrounds, and they are not easy to die. Stretched out his hand to grab the Qian family, who instinctively wanted to come forward to see the situation of the Wu family, and motioned for her not to go up and smoke the fun. Qian asked me in a whisper why I didn't take advantage of the current situation to show my relationship with the Wu family, so that I could take advantage of this opportunity to make friends with the Wu family.
I didn't answer, but pouted and asked her to pay close attention to each of these people's reactions and expressions. Qian followed my words and looked around, and found that the Wulanala clan was looking in the direction of the Li and Wu clans with a playful expression. Nian just glanced at her when Wu exclaimed, and then returned to a quiet and low-key state to sit on the side as a transparent person. Li wiped his fingers with a handkerchief, and turned a blind eye to the Wu family who was full of grievances and embarrassment.
At this time, it is the time to observe Wu's true character and reactions, even if he has good acting skills at the age of fifteen or sixteen, it is impossible to hide it so well in the face of such a sudden situation. If the Qian clan goes up to inquire at this time, it will disrupt the Wulanala clan's mind to observe the Wu clan, and it will also make the Wulanala clan feel that the Qian clan is deliberately wooing the Wu clan, although it is only a very small move, but it may also cause many follow-up problems. And according to my understanding of the Ulanala clan, in this situation, she will inevitably appease the Wu clan and punish the Li clan, so that the grace and power can not only win people's hearts, but also kill chickens and monkeys.
The meeting, which was supposed to be held to discuss what to do on August 15, turned into a farce, and there was no way to continue the discussion at this time. However, the Wulanala clan obviously didn't care about this result, she straightened up and asked Li in a cold voice: "Have you made enough trouble?" First she was disrespectful to the palace, and then she was disrespectful to Concubine Xi. Since you don't want to come, you don't have to come in the future, the harem is a peaceful place, if you can't stop, the palace will give the emperor, so that you don't have to go out of the Chengqian Palace in the future, and give that garden to you as a blessing. In addition, the treasury is empty, and the palace is tight, so this time it was originally planned to discuss the frugality of the palaces. It is said that a few days ago, you also received a lot of subsidies for serving the Empress Dowager, and there are not so many expenses in the Chengqian Palace, so you don't have to receive these three months' salary. After speaking, he waved his hand and motioned for the palace people to lead the Li family out, not wanting to look at her again.
The Li family is stubborn, seeing that there is trouble, and being punished is also expected, disdainful of the Wulanala clan's excessive words, and without waiting for the palace people to step forward, he got up and waved his sleeves without looking back.
As soon as Li left, the atmosphere in the house suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. The Wulanala clan softened his expression and said to the Wu clan with a smile: "Concubine Qi's temper has always been arrogant, you see that she was just like this in the palace just now, and now she really wronged you, so I will go back and change my clothes first, and then ask the imperial doctor to come and see if she is hurt." With that, she asked her to go to her small storeroom and fetch two brocades and gave them to Wu as a comfort.
It was the first time for Wu to see this kind of confrontation between women in the house, obviously both aggrieved and frightened, even if he had a big temper and arrogant heart, he didn't know how to react for a while, so he could only follow the words of the Wulanala clan, and got up and retired with tears.
As soon as Wu left, Nian, who had long been unable to sit still, also got up immediately and wanted to leave under the pretext that he was unwell. Naturally, it was not easy for the Wulanala clan to stay long, so only me and the Qian clan were left in the house.
Without anyone else, the Ulanara clan reverted to the casualness they used to get along with. She looked at the Qian family and said: "You don't have to take Li's words to heart, your position was raised by the emperor, and the intention is self-evident, and your identity is naturally not comparable to the current Li family." ”
Seeing that the Qian family only agreed, the Wulanala clan said to me again: "Don't blame me for making things difficult for you, the position of the queen is not easy to do, the four words of the mother and the world seem simple, but in fact, it is really difficult, and every move is watched by the world." You are messing with the Li family, and outsiders seem to be just competing for favor in the harem, which will not damage the face of the royal family, but if I, the queen, directly confront her as a concubine, I am afraid that some people will say that the queen is intolerant, and it will also make the emperor embarrassed. Don't think that Li is a brainless person, in fact, she can see the situation more clearly than anyone else. She just calculated that the emperor is now thinking about the remarks of all parties, and does not allow the harem to regenerate right and wrong, plus there is the queen mother's edict, forgive me for taking her without fear, otherwise how dare she be so arrogant. I'm afraid it's going to be even more difficult for you in the future. ”
When it comes to this, the words sound sincere, and there is also the meaning of lowering the figure, what else can I say, I can only smile and say, "Don't be embarrassed, it's an honor to share the worries of the emperor and the queen" Yunyun and other polite words.
There are no friends and foes in the deep palace walls, only checks and balances of interests, and there is no real friendship between people, only hypocrisy. Only in this way can people who survive in the cracks live, and those who have the most bargaining chips and are more hypocritical can live better than others, which is the reality.
