After Qi Jiao was promoted to concubine, except for those days that made people feel ashamed and humiliated, most of the time she was still very comfortable. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info because of her docile flattery to the emperor and her maternal ancestor, the emperor is very gracious to her, in addition to a steady stream of rewards, but also let her assist the queen in the six palaces. For a while, her limelight was unparalleled in the palace.

As Qi Jiao's status improved, the Wang family entered and exited the court more freely. On this day, the Wang family came to the palace to visit his daughter again. After the ceremony, Qi Jiao asked the palace maids and eunuchs who were accompanying her to retreat, leaving her mother to speak considerately, and only at this moment did she dare to let go of her guard and take a few breaths.

"Niangniang's face has been getting better lately. Wang looked at his daughter and said.

"It's better, it's just stronger than some time ago. ”

"Mother, do you have eyebrows about my cousin?" Qi Jiao's cousin was the son of his uncle Jiangzhou prefect. Wang couldn't help but shed tears when he heard this,

"I don't know what the origin of that group of thieves is, but they are very powerful, your foreigners and your uncle have not only sent out many people openly and secretly, but there is no news, but there is no news, poor your uncle is just that one sister-in-law, and your aunt doesn't know what to do with sadness. ”

Qi Jiaoliu raised her eyebrows and said angrily:

"How can this be reasonable, these people are really bold, and there is no royal law in their eyes. I must report to the emperor and punish those people as offenders. ”

Seeing that his daughter was emotional, Wang hurriedly reassured:

"Niangniang is angry, even if the emperor can manage it, even if it is good, everything must be based on Niangniang's phoenix body. To divert the topic, Wang asked:

"By the way, how is the big brother?"

"That's it, sick and weak, even the emperor feels that he has no heart when he sees it, so there is only this one in this palace, and I just count on him. ”

"Qi Yun's little hooves are still safe?"

"What's the matter, people are now a celebrity in front of the queen, this is not flattering in front of the queen every day, what can I do with her. Qi Jiao was furious when she mentioned Qi Yun.

"Father is really, it's not good to help anyone, help this cheap girl. ”

Wang hurriedly laughed and said:

"Niangniang, my father is also thinking about Niangniang's reputation, isn't it?"

"After all, my father still didn't believe me. Qi Jiao snorted coldly.

"How can it be, according to Niangniang's current status, who else can surpass you?"

If it weren't for his father's maneuvering, the Guogong Mansion would have been cleaned up by the emperor a long time ago, how could it be as prosperous as it is now, what a general, what a prince's wife!" Qi Jiao's words were full of resentment and jealousy.

It is true that the two Zhang Hou brothers have some disdain for what Scholar Wang did, because taking history as a mirror, an arrogant minister like Scholar Wang generally has no good end. Because of the relationship between the family and the in-laws, they can't get rid of the relationship with the Wang scholars, but it is always better to have less to do with it. However, Wang's mother and daughter didn't think so, and the connection with the bachelor's house became closer and closer.

Therefore, Zhang Hou has some complaints about a concubine like Qi Jiao, but the identity relationship can only be low-key in front of the emperor, and then low-key. On the contrary, because of his understanding of the eldest daughter and his appreciation of Li Yi, he only reached out last time to help them tide over the difficulties, which also shows that Zhang Hou, an old fox, is well versed in the doorways of officialdom.

"Don't worry, your grandfather recommended him to suppress the bandits this time, and he has made all arrangements, so he must be told to go around without eating, and when the time comes, don't say what is the title, whether his life can be saved. ”

"Really?"

"Why is it not true, this is what your grandfather said personally, and your mother can still coax you?" Wang said happily, and he no longer called Niangniang in his mouth.

A smile was reflected on Qi Jiao's face, a beautiful face, with this smile, but it made people shudder.

"That stinky girl is very fine, every time I send someone to call her into the palace, but she always says that she is sick and shirks, and she can't clean her up if she wants to, it's a pity. Wang knew that Qi Jiao was talking about Saiyu, but thought that Zhang Hou had told her many times that the emperor didn't like the harem to be too close to the previous dynasty, so he opened his mouth and said

"Niangniang, you also know that the emperor doesn't like the harem and the previous dynasty to have something to do with it, it's already a little inappropriate for my mother to come to see you so often, more things are better than less things, the emperor's mind is the most important, isn't it?"

"I know, my daughter has been in the palace for many years, and she still knows how to measure. Qi Jiao said impatiently.

"By the way, the emperor still often comes to Niangniang's place?" Wang asked with concern, after all, his daughter's honor and favor are closely related to a large family, and then he suddenly remembered a rumor he heard, so he asked his daughter for verification.

Qi Jiao's face changed,

"Mother should not inquire about these things. ”

Qi Jiao's sudden change in tone shocked Wang's heart.

"Why, if you have any troubles, just tell me. ”

Qi Jiao smiled bitterly in her heart, how to make people talk about what she had suffered, even someone as close to her mother could not speak.

"What can it be, the emperor's favor of me is known in the six palaces, can this be fake?"

"However, how did the concubine hear that the emperor had not come to Niangniang for a long time. Wang was still not at ease, so he finally spoke out.

"The mother believes in her daughter or believes in outsiders, although the emperor is not in the palace of the palace, he often finds the palace to go to the study to accompany him, and then he has several other palaces, how can the emperor ever set foot in it, even the queen mother is very few. I advised my mother to relax and not listen to people's words. ”

Qi Jiao's words finally made the Wang family feel at ease a little.

The mother and daughter were talking, and suddenly heard the palace maid outside replying,

"Guifei Niangniang, just now Gonggong Zhang from the other courtyard passed the word, saying that Jing Zhenren had invited Niangniang to come over. ”

Qi Jiao was shocked when she heard Jing Zhenren, and almost dropped the tea cup in her hand, Wang listened attentively to the words of the palace maid, and did not notice the change in Qi Jiao.

"Mother, let's go back today. In an instant, Qi Jiao's complexion had returned to normal.

"Why is this Jing Zhenren so big?"

"Mother, don't ask too much about the palace. Qi Jiao suddenly blocked her mother's words.

After the Wang family left, Qi Jiao ordered someone to come in to comb her hair and change her clothes, because she was going to see Jing Zhenren, so everything was simple, and she didn't bring extra jewelry on her head.

"Niangniang, is this dress good?" asked the palace maid.

"Whatever. Qi Jiao was a little excited, anyway, when she arrived at the other courtyard, she didn't have to wear anything. Qi Jiao packed up and took the palace maid and eunuch who accompanied her to sit on her shoulders and come to the other courtyard.

Jing Zhenren was waiting at the door early, and the two entered the courtyard hand in hand, both smiling, but only they knew the sorrow in their hearts. (To be continued.) )
