Chapter 169: The Queen Mother is invited
Chapter 169
It is said that after Prime Minister Du Cheng returned from Yanxi Palace, he asked his wife to prepare some fine jewelry. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Mrs. info was suspicious, and asked what to use the jewelry, but Prime Minister Du Cheng said that he would send it to the palace to Youlan, and she interrupted her.
I saw her say menacingly: She has entered the palace and become a mother, not to mention that she can't help the house, but she still wants us to send jewelry in?
When Prime Minister Du heard this, he said without hurry: This jewelry was given away, but what came back was inexhaustible glory and wealth.
Madame asked rhetorically: It's good that she doesn't drag us down, and I want her to shine on the lintel in the next life.
It seems that Du Youlan's situation in the palace has long been known to the lady of the Du Mansion.
Just listen to Prime Minister Du Cheng: Now, Youlan is not pampered, but it may not be the case in the future. As long as the emperor sees her a few more times, Youlan will definitely be able to capture the Sacred Heart, and when the time comes, she will continue to be honored, and this Prime Minister Du Cheng's Mansion will naturally be extraordinary.
When Madame heard this, she was right. Asked: You said that this is also the reason why you send jewelry in?
Prime Minister Du Cheng smiled: Naturally.
Madame said nothing more. This Prime Minister Du Cheng's formal wife only gave birth to a daughter, and her appearance is not as outstanding as Du Youlan, who is a concubine, and her skills in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are also inferior, so Prime Minister Du Cheng prefers Du Youlan more. For this reason, Mrs. Zhengfang bullied Youlan's mother and daughter a lot in the past, and Youlan's mother was weak and died of illness when she was twelve or thirteen years old.
Prime Minister Du Cheng had his own set of means, and the next day alone, a box full of luxurious jewelry was sent into the Chaoxiang Palace.
The palace people in Chaoxiang Palace saw that this lady's family actually sent jewelry, and some eunuchs of higher rank greeted her with a smile, and most of the words were flattering and praised. Seeing this, those palace people saw that Du Youlan's eyes became respectful, and they no longer dared to do things casually, and even showed the master's face.
It is said that Chengli entered the palace and became the guard of Luanjiao Palace, and he would always meet with Qixuan Dyezhi on weekdays. Xu is because they all entered the palace from Renfu, and the three of them seemed much closer than when they were in Renfu. The age is about the same, and Dye Zhi treats Chengli as a younger brother, and if there is anything delicious in the hall, he will think about Chengli and bring him to eat. Every time he sees this, Qi Xuan will complain, saying that he is not as good as Chengli. There was no malice in the words, both of them were just joking, just talking. From this point of view, Chengli has become their younger brother.
Inside the Imperial Study.
The border situation intensified, and the former courtiers were divided into two factions, and the stalemate was stalemate. In Yu Yuxuan's opinion, the main and faction led by Prime Minister Du Cheng, at such an urgent moment on the border, even thought that as long as they sent envoys to meet the king in the border area, they could calm down the incident, and sending troops was the next step. I don't know if these courtiers are incompetent, or if they are afraid of barbarians. All in all, Yu Xuan was becoming more and more dissatisfied with the words of the Lord and the faction.
I only heard him interrupt and said: Do you really think it is inappropriate for a few adults to say that the main battle is inappropriate?
When Du Cheng heard this, he lowered his head and was silent. Several ministers behind him whispered. Suddenly, one person came out of the queue and said: Back to the emperor, Weichen felt that it was inappropriate to send troops, and the ministers of the Biansai Fan Gang were weak and weak, and if they wanted to invade our dynasty, they had no intention of using the mantis arm as a car. As a prosperous dynasty, my army is strong and strong, if I send troops for a trivial matter, I am afraid that people will feel that the holy lord is suspicious, but it will lose the trust of the ministers to the emperor.
After speaking, he saluted and returned to the queue.
This sounds like there is a truth to it. The main war faction also did not make a verbal rebuttal.
Seeing this, Yu Xuan said: What Aiqing said is reasonable. This matter will be discussed later. Let's go back first.
Hearing this, the adults all bowed and withdrew.
The frontier land can no longer be delayed. After the ministers all retreated, he ordered Sanren to invite Lu Shui into the palace.
The emperor shirked not going to Yanxi Palace for several days, and the queen mother knew one or two reasons in her heart. Every time I ask someone to ask for it, what I wait for is something like 'the state is busy' and 'I will ask for guilt in the future', but I sneered. In that case, let's invite them to come first and have a good chat.
The two little eunuchs of Yanxi Palace received the order, one went to Yiju Pavilion to invite Lu Niangniang, and the other went to Chaoxiang Palace to invite Du Niangniang. After both of them entered the palace, they were both named concubines, and they were of the same rank, second only to the queen. Since entering the palace for three months, Du Youlan has gone to Yanxi Palace many times to ask the Queen Mother for peace, and was invited back after seeing it for the first time, and then went again, and was stopped by the eunuch at the palace gate, saying that the Queen Mother was tired and did not see many people. Being invited this time made her feel incredible.
But Lu Yun is much simpler, if it weren't for the careful teaching of her grandmother and let her go to Yanxi Palace to ask for peace, I'm afraid she would only know how to eat, drink and have fun in Yiju Pavilion.
After a short time, the two ladies and two palace maids entered Yanxi Palace.
When the two of them walked into the hall, they saw the Queen Mother sitting in front of them, so they bowed their heads and stepped forward, knelt down and kowtowed: The concubines ask the Queen Mother for peace and hope that the Queen Mother will be blessed.
I only heard the Queen Mother smile and said: Get up quickly, sit down.
The two were helped up by the palace ladies and sat on both sides.
After sitting down, the two looked at the Queen Mother. Self-humility and respect are many.
I saw the Queen Mother smile slightly, and said: I invited you here today just to get together, this harem is too big, and the emperor only has a few of you.
Hearing this, Du Youlan said: It is a great honor for the Queen Mother to personally send someone to invite the two concubines to come over, so how can she be bored.
Lu Yun listened, smiled and nodded.
When the Queen Mother saw this, she said: The three of you are here in this harem, and it is more lively. It's just that the emperor loves the queen and doesn't ask other concubines in the harem, so you are left out in the cold and always wronged.
Du Youlan answered: The Queen Mother doesn't want to say this, the queen is the emperor's wife and deserves to be favored by the emperor, and we don't feel wronged.
When the Queen Mother heard this, she smiled and said: You are empathetic.
Du Youlan replied with a smile: The Queen Mother praised it falsely.
When Lu Yun heard this, he just smiled and said nothing.
I saw the Queen Mother turn to Lu Yundao: Yun'er, have you ever thought about why the emperor is like this?
Lu Yun looked at it and replied: Yun'er doesn't know.
Listening to the conversation between the two, Du Youlan also looked at the Queen Mother.
I only heard the queen mother say: Which men in this world are long-term love? One moment of love, one moment of love, all depends on what you do.
The two listened, thoughtful, and silent.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother said: As long as you are empathetic enough, you will do what you like and do something cute at the right time. Heroes are sad about beauty, no man doesn't like beauty, just like the queen, men naturally like it.
