Emperor Zong's funeral was very grand, the Qianming Palace stopped the coffin for 7749 days, and sent the funeral to the tomb of the Zhou Chamber of Mingyang Mountain. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Then the prince kept filial piety for 27 days with the day and the month, and practiced Zuo 95 on March 26, changed the year name to Emperor Chaohui, and opened a new prosperous yuan.
After the enthronement ceremony, there was the harem seal, the crown princess was crowned the queen, the former queen became the queen mother, and the concubine became the queen concubine. Immediately after the big seal, it is to change the palace, Fengyi Palace is the middle palace, and it is naturally the residence of the queen. According to the convention, the imperial garden is bounded, and the east garden is where the emperor's harem is located, and there are eight palace groups around the Huaye Pond. There are four palaces to the west of the Imperial Garden, among which Ci'an Palace is the most exquisite and occupies the largest area, and it is usually the residence of the Queen Mother.
But the trouble is that there is a crown princess living in Ci'an Palace now, and Fengyi Palace has to be vacated for the new queen, so where the former queen who has been upgraded to the queen mother lives has become a big problem.
The first emperor wanted to make him the queen mother earlier, but people didn't want to just have a Ci'an palace, go deep and simple, never meddle in the affairs of the harem, and now let the Zhaohui Emperor order to drive the concubine out of the Ci'an Palace, it's difficult! The Zhaohui Emperor is stumped, the queen mother is stumped, the queen is stumped, the queen is also stumped, and the ministers are even more stumped, so the queen mother, the queen and a group of concubines are sealed, but no one can move, and the former harem is strangely quiet for several days.
In Ci'an Palace, Mama Gui walked in with a tea bowl of pure white porcelain from Ru kiln, and put the tea bowl in the hands of the imperial concubine, "Niangniang, this is your favorite tea before the rain, new this year, Your Majesty specially asked the inner chamberlain to send it to you." ”
The Empress Dowager chuckled, "I didn't expect the treatment of the new emperor to succeed to the throne in the palace." ”
"Your Majesty is a kind and filial man. Mama Gui replied with a smile.
The Empress Dowager only took a sip, and the fragrance she usually loved was tasted with a hint of astringency at this time, "Your Majesty is filial piety, shouldn't this palace be generous and take the initiative to give up this Ci'an Palace." With a smile on his face, he could speak with a hint of annoyance.
Mama Gui's expression remained unchanged, she knew that rumors had been spreading in the harem recently, and the center of the harem was her own master, but she didn't know what kind of character her master was, and she wanted to rely on a few rumors to make her take the initiative to quit, which was tantamount to lifting a stone to shoot herself in the foot.
"What does this have to do with generosity, it's just a house, but you've lived in this house for five years, and you pay attention to everything first-come, first-served, right? You live in Ci'an Palace, but it is the will of the first emperor, and you can move if you want to, but please come out of the will of the first emperor, when are we afraid of people. We have nothing to worry about, and we are willing to dare to pull the emperor off the horse, and the slaves and maids still don't believe that Your Majesty really dares to do anything to you. ”
The Empress Dowager was still smiling at first, but after listening to the first sentence, the smile on the corner of her mouth gradually faded, pursed her mouth, and her slender and white fingers twisted the bowl lid and made a beautiful orchid finger, and the bowl lid touched the edge of the bowl and made a light and crisp sound, one long and one short, one tight and one slow, just like the master's hesitant mood.
After a long time, a deep voice came, "This palace remembers that there is a Zhongcui Palace in the west of Xinglin, and it seems to be pretty good when I passed by last time, why don't I move there in this palace, it is more quiet there." ”
Mama Gui's nose was sour, and she pressed the corner of her eyes, "Niangniang's vision is excellent, and Zhong Cui Palace is in the northwest corner of the harem, which is the most quiet." In the future, the Queen Mother will live in the West Garden, and this West Garden will be lively, and the mother will live in Zhongcui Palace. ”
The princess loosened her fingertips on the lid of the bowl, and there was a crisp sound when the lid hit the edge of the bowl, and the tea splashed wet the tabletop, like a dusty mood, and it was gloomy.
King Rong's Mansion, Qi Rong rarely returned to the room in Shen Shizheng, Zhen Wanyi greeted her, her voice was full of joy, "Why did you go back so early today?"
Qi Rong gently hooked the corners of his lips, pulled Zhen Wanyi to sit on the low couch in the west side room, and waved away the people waiting in the room, "Wan'er, I have something I want to discuss with you for my husband." ”
Zhen Wanyi blinked, took a secret breath, sat up straight, and said with a serious face: "What did the prince say?" ”
Qi Rong saw that the little wife had a pretty face, her nose was slightly wide, and she looked very serious and serious, so she laughed, stretched out her hand and rubbed Zhen Wanyi's hair, "Don't be so nervous, it's not a bad thing." ”
Zhen Wanyi breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "The prince's face is so ugly, how can I not be nervous, I thought something big happened in the court." As he spoke, he poured a cup of tea and served it.
Qi Rong took it and took a sip, "Wan'er heard about the things in the harem recently." ”
Zhen Wanyi frowned, "Are you talking about the palace? Your Majesty hasn't come up with a charter yet? It's been ten days after this has been sealed, and the canonization ceremony is about to be held, hasn't the Queen Mother moved out of Fengyi Palace yet?" ”
Qi Rong put down the tea bowl, "Hmm." ”
Zhen Wanyi pouted, "There are so many palaces in this West Garden where people can't live, and you don't have to live in Ci'an Palace, isn't the Queen Mother not the Queen Mother if she doesn't live in Ci'an Palace? Why should she embarrass Your Majesty and the Empress?"
Qi Rong hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Wan'er's words are sincere, but people don't think so, she has finally become the most noble woman in this big week, how can she be willing if she can't get the treatment commensurate with her." ”
"The Queen Mother is looking at her face. After Zhen Wanyi finished speaking, she pursed her lips and laughed, and then winked at Qi Rong, "What does the prince want to discuss with me?"
Qi Rong's right thumb unconsciously rubbed on the edge of the tea bowl, and only after a while did he say, "I want to take the imperial concubine to live in the house." ”
Zhen Wanyi opened her mouth in surprise, and the first time she stepped into the imperial garden with Qi Rong flashed in her mind, and she met the concubine and got a pair of precious dragon and phoenix inlaid bracelets, and the second time she met was that after giving birth to Brother Heng, the concubine gave her a very valuable mutton fat jade Yingluo and several pairs of gold and silver bracelets, the mutton fat jade Yingluo was still the concubine's dowry, and the third meeting was the first time Heng Ge'er entered the palace, and it was also in the imperial garden, the concubine accompanied her for nearly an afternoon, holding Heng Ge'er and was unwilling to let go.
patted her forehead, why is she so stupid, everyone has done it so obviously, and then think about her age, the concubine is also in her early forties, isn't it about the same as Qi Rong's mother.
"Lord, why didn't you tell me about the concubine before? You didn't reveal anything, I, I haven't officially met the concubine, isn't this rude? ”
Qi Rong raised his eyebrows, looking at the distress on Zhen Wanyi's face, surprised that the little wife was thinking about this for a while, and he thought that she was worrying about the fact that there was one more elder in the mansion to make rules. The warmth in my heart spreads to every corner of the body, fluttering like a catkins in March, blown by the warm wind.
"Wan'er. The low voice was a little hoarse but indescribably charming, and the heat from her hand made Zhen Wanyi excited, looking at Qi Rong blankly, and her big eyes were stunned and full of tenderness.
Qi Rong's eyes were blazing, full of joy and couldn't hold back any longer, he straightened the little delicate person up, hugged him tightly into his arms, and couldn't wait to rub it into his own blood, how could there be such a person who suited his heart? How could such a good delicate person just be found by him?
