Just learned the news that Princess Zhaoyang had dealt with the crown prince, Emperor Qinglong could understand her reason for doing so intellectually, but he still couldn't accept it emotionally. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At this time, he didn't want to go back to the imperial study to face those government affairs.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Go to Yijing Palace." ”

Wu Guangqi was instructed to send the little eunuch who was waiting in front of him to Yijing Palace to spread the word. He saw that Emperor Qinglong was in a bad mood at this time, but fortunately, Liu Zhaoyuan was a clever person and should be able to deal with it.

When she arrived at Yijing Palace, Liu Zhaoyuan was really dressed up and waiting.

The white jade twisted bead tassel is inserted in the sideburns, and the shallow smile on the beautiful face is heartwarming. A staggered silver bas-carved peony belt was tied around her waist, which made her slender waist even more difficult to grasp.

She bowed down and said softly: "The concubine greets His Majesty the Emperor." ”

At present, the beauty is dressed in a way that suits her heart. Emperor Qinglong laughed, put his troubles behind, reached out and grabbed her waist, and walked inside.

Wu Guangqi breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the emperor will rest here.

……

Yanqing Palace.

Empress Cao accompanied Empress Dowager Xiao to cut the flower branches, the two cleaned their hands and sat down, and Liuli took the little palace maid to put the dinner on the table.

"Just look at the emperor, you don't have to come to accompany my old wife often. ”

"Where is the queen mother's words. Here in the queen mother, the sons are at ease. Empress Cao smiled lightly.

A little palace maid stepped forward and said: "Queen Mother, the emperor went to Yijing Palace, and sent someone to say that he would not come in the evening, and he would come again in the morning to ask for peace." ”

Empress Dowager Xiao picked up the chopsticks, paused them lightly on the table, and said, "Look, I said it." ”

"The emperor is busy with government affairs, and this harem is prepared for him. The emperor has been in a bad mood these days, Liu Zhaoyuan is a sensible person, and it is good to be able to make him relaxed. "The harem can't interfere in politics, but Queen Cao knows everything about what has happened recently.

"You're just too kind-hearted. "Empress Dowager Xiao has some hatred that iron does not become steel.

Queen Cao pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Don't be angry with the queen mother, look at me, there are sons and daughters, and the queen mother loves me, and I can't fight with these flower-like women." The emperor doesn't look down on people, it's useless to fight. ”

Empress Dowager Xiao looked at her deeply and said, "You can see it clearly." ”

Indeed, as she said, she gave birth to the emperor's heir, and sent the first emperor to wear filial piety, and her position was stable. Such a daughter-in-law, not to mention in the royal family, even in the people, cannot be easily abandoned.

The emperor is rich and seems to have everything, but he is not. Empress Cao's mother is the world, and her virtues are good, as long as she doesn't make mistakes, Emperor Qinglong has no reason to abolish her. If he really wants to go his own way, he will be drowned by the spit up and down, and he may not succeed.

But in this harem, there are many people who can understand this, but there are only a few people who can recognize what they should do. Most people, in the midst of the many calculations of the court, where can they still keep their hearts?

is like Shi Jieyu, who died in childbirth, if she didn't climb up with her heart, how could she end up with a tragic death?

After a dinner, Empress Cao rinsed her mouth and asked with a smile: "Queen Mother, I have matched a pair of beautiful people, and the Duke of Zhongguo must be grateful, and he will enter the palace in a few days to thank him." ”

Speaking of this proud thing, Empress Dowager Xiao was happy and said: "The wife of Zhongguo Gong is really narrow-minded. Wu Sheng is a good one, but how can he be a sister-in-law? Fortunately, there is this concubine, and he has dragged it out until he is eighteen years old, and he has not even discussed his relatives. ”

"The sons have also heard that she treats her concubine harshly, and her behavior is outrageous. ”

These two most noble women in the world today are actually just ordinary women. Close the door and talk about other people's gossip, and also talk about it.

The Chen family suddenly wanted to marry Wu Zhengxiang, and the mourning family felt a little strange. After so many years, where did she have such a good heart?"

Erchen thinks that no matter what happens behind the scenes, this is a beautiful talk. Queen Cao said with a smile: "The queen mother rewarded Xu Wanzhen with a five-grade seal, so that she would not be bullied when she entered the door, right?"

Empress Dowager Xiao nodded and said: "This Xu Wanzhen's grandmother has some past feelings with the mourning family, and she knows that there is a wicked mother-in-law, and the mourning family also pointed her out to the martial family, but it is just compensation." ”

Speaking of this, she laughed and said, "The second son of the martial arts family is also a good one, and he specially came to ask to see the mourning family and ask for a seal for Xu Wanzhen, but it coincides." The mourning family pushed the boat along the river and rewarded her with a pleasant one. ”

Queen Cao was surprised: "I didn't expect him to be a careful person and know how to hurt people." The queen mother doesn't have to feel guilty, she has a husband to protect her in the back house, this Xu Wan is really blessed. ”

……

The night was thick, an inconspicuous sedan chair arrived at the back corner door of the prince's mansion, and the little man who watched the door had already got the will, and let the sedan chair go in, and did not stop until it was in front of the hanging flower door.

A handsome young man who was accompanying him on the side of the sedan chair stepped forward and helped one person down from the sedan chair.

He was about fifty years old, and wore a simple blue cloth shirt. The temples are white, with a long haircut, the hair is neatly combed, and a bamboo and wood grain hosta is inserted on it, and the appearance is neat.

This master and servant are dressed simply, but the aura exuded from his body is not despised by anyone.

Master Du stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "Lord Guan, please." ”

Guan Jinghuan nodded and asked Master Du to lead the way in front. He took the handsome young man, paced in all directions, and walked behind unhurriedly.

Before arriving at the study, the prince greeted him and said, "It is a great honor to learn that Lord Guan is here. ”

Faced with the hottest minister of the dynasty and the popular candidate for the next prime minister, the crown prince put his posture very low, and even replaced his self-proclaimed character with his own words.

Guan Jinghuan smiled slightly and said, "The prince welcomes him, where does Weichen dare to be?"

After entering the study, the two sides met each other, and then they had to discuss business.

The prince glanced at the handsome young man who was following Guan Jinghuan, and Guan Jinghuan introduced: "Zhang Feiping, the righteous son of Weichen. When I was a child, I learned from a teacher, traveled all over the world, and returned recently. At the moment, he is close to protecting Weichen, and there is no need to avoid him. ”

It turned out to be such an identity. The prince said in his heart: "After introducing such a confidant, it seems that Guan Jinghuan is sincere to him." ”

At the moment, he no longer avoided taboos, and the prince arched his hand and said: "The current predicament, I am powerless to break free, and please teach me sir." ”

The prince held the disciple ceremony, Guan Jinghuan accepted it calmly, his face was solemn, and said: "The prince is an orthodox prince, if there is no flaw, others want to attack but can't." The old man supported the prince from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't want to contact you too soon, but the current situation was really not good, so he had to make this decision and meet with the prince. ”

Hearing this, the prince's heart was shocked and asked, "What did Mr. mean?"

Guan Jinghuan sighed and said, "As the crown prince, it is taboo to befriend important ministers in the court. The old man's original plan was that when the emperor was not energetic, he would ask the prince to watch the government, and then succeed to the throne in a dignified manner. It's a pity, it's a pity......"
