Chapter 183: Empress Dowager Guo's Dilemma

When the palace car slowly stopped, Gu Yanling got off the carriage with the Xie family, and was led by the Hua Zhi in front of him to the gate of Cining Palace. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Walking through the narrow white stone square, passing through the Cining Gate, and using it through the high platform, you can see the solemn five-room palace in front of you, even on such a gloomy snowy day, the yellow glazed tile heavy eaves on the top of the palace are still shining with brilliance, and will not be ignored at all.

This is the place where the harem women look up to and compete for a lifetime, and it is also a symbol of a woman's most noble place, as a court lady, you can no longer rely on the ethereal emperor's favor, but also can be supported by the whole world, even if it is the emperor who is the son of heaven, you have to call respectfully: "Queen Mother." ”

She used to live here for 14 years, when she was the mother queen mother who was in awe of civil and military officials, and she was the real ruler of the Daxing Dynasty in the harem. When the curtain was hung for ten years, she had to quit the court and live in the harem, but she didn't expect that as soon as her words came out, all the ministers retained, and even spoke against it, and even the emperor Xiao Yu at that time personally went to Cining Palace to kneel and ask her to take back her life.

At that time, she was relieved to think that the emperor was really grateful for her assistance, and hoped that her mother, would help him go through the situation for a few more years, and jointly push the prosperity of the Jiande period to the peak. But later, it wasn't until she forced the palace that she suddenly realized that she had been shrewd all her life, but she was naΓ―ve when she was old, how could the emperor at that time really ask her to take back her fame and return to the emperor, but the child's ambition was greater and more prosperous.

He hated the respect and dependence of hundreds of officials on her as the queen mother, so after her downfall, he killed all the officials who supported her, his so-called kneeling invitation, but forced by the form of the court, in his heart, as long as she, the queen mother, does not fall for a day, even if she retreats to the harem, she will be opposed by the courtiers, and the power in the court is still a threat. What he wanted was the glory of truly holding power in his hands, removing all threats and obstacles, so he would rather wait another four years, until Shoufu Xie Yun died, and when his wings were completely full.

Gu Yanling quietly raised his head and looked at the three eye-catching words on the gilt plaque in front of him, suddenly like a dream.

She came back, in the previous life she was the shrewd, confused loser for a while, when she exchanged death for this life, in this life, she was destined to be only a successful person, and she must be.

Empress Dowager Guo, they are finally going to meet.

She really wants to see who the queen mother of the two dynasties meets again, and who should be slightly better.

The next moment, Gu Yanling walked forward with the Xie family, his head slightly raised, without the slightest arrogance, but he had a natural noble aura, and the golden phoenix pearls and jade interspersed between the coiled buns seemed to be as dazzling as in the sun.

Walking on the Taiji in front of the main hall of Cining Palace, with the loud announcement of the waiter at the door, Hua Zhi personally opened the soft curtain of fragrant satin embroidered colorful flowers and birds for them, led them in, walked through the door of the heavy double cross four rhombic flowers, bypassed a fourteen white bird Chaofeng screen, only to see that the furnishings in the house are gorgeous and atmospheric, than the young concubines in the harem, there is a bit of indescribable heritage.

Almost at that moment, Gu Yanling felt the countless eyes in the room fall on her body tightly, and she hardly let go of the slightest detail.

And at this moment, everyone also understands why a small twelve-year-old girl can become the "first noble girl in Daxing" in the mouth of others, why she has not yet faced the saint, she has been liked by the emperor and the East Palace, although she wears the pure gold phoenix bead head face personally rewarded by Queen Yuan, the girl's temperament is not inferior in the slightest, but with a kind of calm and atmosphere different from the boudoir girl, the glittering brilliance of the head is suppressed.

When everyone was surprised, they couldn't help but gradually have a little involuntary admiration.

It's not that the girl in his own house is not good, but that others are too good, and the position of the eldest grandson seems to be destined to only be the girl in front of her.

At the moment when Gu Yanling bowed her jaw respectfully, she saw the Empress Dowager Guo sitting on the phoenix couch surrounded by all the internal and external wives like the stars holding the moon.

The old enemy who made her ascend to the queen mother's phoenix throne and tried her best.

When Gu Yanling stepped forward steadily and cautiously to salute with the Xie family, the Empress Dowager Guo above did not make a sound, and was only silent for a while before the voice of Empress Yuan smiled.

"Let's get up. ”

Gu Yanling got up with Xie Shishun, but the surrounding internal and external women were a little difficult, according to Gu Yanling's identity as the quasi-eldest grandson, they should bow to him, but now they have only made a holy decree, and the wedding has not yet been decided, so if they salute, it will be a little rash.

Just when everyone was in a dilemma, the girl had already turned around and said politely: "Yanling has seen all the ladies and ladies, the nobles, and the ladies. ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone was slightly stunned, and then they were relieved, although they had the identity of the quasi-eldest concubine, the girl did not have a domineering momentum, but was neither humble nor arrogant, and she was really in retreat.

This scene fell in the eyes of Queen Yuan and the crown princess, and naturally liked it a little more, Ning Guifei and Xie also looked at each other and smiled, quite a bit and honored, Ducheng Guifei seemed to be smiling, but there was a little plainness in her eyes.

"The Dingguo Mansion is so well-educated. ”

Empress Dowager Guo's appreciative voice suddenly sounded above, but this sentence did not make people feel that it was a simple appreciation.

"Come over and let the mourners see. ”

The girl lowered her eyes and walked forward quite kindly, and the next moment she felt that Empress Dowager Guo's pair was well-maintained, and her hand wearing Zhucui reached over and pulled her.

"Raise your head, and tell the mourners to take a closer look. ”

When Gu Yanling slowly raised his head, he happened to meet the pair of smiling eyes of the Empress Dowager Guo, but they were full of scrutiny and sophistication. Empress Dowager Guo is the same as before, if you just look at her appearance and temperament, she is indeed a kind woman, but she has only one pair of eyes, but she is like an eagle, sharp and shrewd, which makes people daunted at a glance.

In the face of Empress Dowager Guo's fierce gaze approaching step by step, Gu Yanling was calm and calm, only with an appropriate smile on her lips, just when everyone gradually fell into silence and became cautious, Empress Yuan couldn't help but open her mouth to relieve the girl, but who knew that Empress Dowager Guo, who had been smiling and silent, was the first to speak.

"It's a good boy, Queen, so blessed. ”

Seeing that Empress Dowager Guo turned her head to talk to herself, Empress Yuan's smile did not decrease, and she still spoke politely.

"In the future, such a good boy will have to call you a grandmother. ”

Empress Dowager Guo smiled when she heard this, and then looked at the girl in front of her lightly and said: "It seems that it is also the blessing of the mourning family, indeed, now it is time for the mourning family to enjoy the blessings of their children and grandchildren." ”

Empress Yuan heard that the corners of her lips floated with a dignified and decent smile, but she was wary of every word of the Empress Dowager Guo in her heart, but when everyone gradually smelled a faint smell of gunpowder, Empress Dowager Guo looked at the girl in front of her quite gently, and said with a smile: "The mourning family heard that the plum blossoms in the plum garden are blooming well, good boy, you can personally go and fold a few branches for the mourning family and come back to insert the bottle." ”

Although it is a question, it is with an attitude that cannot be refused.

The smile in Empress Dowager Guo's eyes has not diminished, and the kindness has not diminished.

As soon as these words came out, the room suddenly fell silent, and everyone couldn't help but look at the girl who was cordially held by the Empress Dowager Guo.

Empress Yuan's brows were almost imperceptibly furrowed, and the faces of Ning Guifei and Xie seemed to be calm, but there was already something strange in their hearts, but Cheng Guifei took a sip of tea with her eyes down, blocking the faint smile on her lips.

In this stormy and snowy day, the snow on the ground has accumulated several layers of thickness, and a weak daughter's family ran so far to break a few plums, and she may not be embarrassed when she comes back. What's more, in front of the public and the women, these jobs should have been done by a palace maid, but now the Empress Dowager Guo is specifying that the future eldest grandson concubine will go in person, wouldn't it be that before the family marries into the royal family, she will lose people's face, and lose the dignity of the eldest grandson in front of everyone, like a slave who has been called.

Empress Dowager Guo's seemingly casual request was too ruthless and poisonous. But because of his status and filial piety, everything is difficult to refuse.

Empress Dowager Guo looked at the calm girl in front of her, the smile in her eyes deepened a little, she just wants everyone to understand today that people who don't like her are no different from an ordinary slave who is commanded by her in this palace, in front of her, and she wants to give everyone a loud wake-up call, and everyone knows who can call the shots in today's harem.

What if a little girl is held by the emperor, as long as she is there for a day, there will be no time for others to dare to cover the sky.

Empress Dowager Guo glanced lightly at Empress Yuan, whose face had not changed next to her, and who was still dignified and decent, with a faint mockery floating on the corner of her lips.
