Chapter 015: The Queen Mother is dissatisfied
Inside the Inju Palace
"Your Majesty, I heard that you promoted the Yin clan again?"
Sandwiched a basket of steamed shrimp dumplings and put them in a small bowl with delicate patterns, the Queen Mother Zheng seemed to ask casually. Dongfang Ke nodded, and said without concealment: "The Yin clan has a meritorious service in saving Rong'er, and it is natural for me to be rewarded for her promotion." ”
"I agree with that." Dongfang Rong on the other side stuffed her mouth with food, and when she heard Dongfang Ke say this, she nodded like a chicken pecking rice and agreed: "People almost put their lives on the line to save me, and it should be rewarding something to seal a position!" Brother Huang, I know that everything before is wrong, I want to go to Chonghua Palace to see Yin Chongyuan in a while, is it okay? ”
"If you want to go, go there." Dongfang Ke approved Dongfang Rong's request, Dongfang Rong cheered, immediately cleaned his hands and left the carved wooden dining table, and after greeting Dongfang Ke and Zheng's family, he "flew" out of the palace like a bird.
At this time, there were only two people left at the Nuoda table, Dongfang Ke and Zheng, and Zheng put aside the blue-textured bamboo chopsticks in his palm, "Doesn't the emperor feel too fond of that Yin?" ”
"What does the Queen Mother want to say?" Also put aside the bamboo chopsticks, Dongfang Ke raised his eyes and asked. Zheng was stunned, "The mourning family doesn't mean anything else, it's just that the Yin family has been in the palace for a short time." In such a short period of time, he has been promoted two levels in a row, what does this make the other concubines think? ”
"The Queen Mother is too worried." After cleaning his hands, Dongfang Ke said slowly: "If any of them also block a sword for Rong'er, of course I will also be promoted." ”
"So the emperor is just thankful to the Yin clan for blocking the sword?" Zheng's eyes lit up, and he was bold and suspicious of the meaning of Dongfang Ke's words. Dongfang Ke didn't nod or deny it, the Queen Mother wanted to speak again, but was blocked back by his words, "Eat without saying anything, sleep without speaking." Queen Mother, let's eat while it's hot. ”
Zheng's face changed, and there was an embarrassed flush on her face, she shouldn't be so anxious. After calming down, Zheng put on a smile again, and glanced at it, and the consul immediately asked people to present the stew she had ordered the dining room to make for a long time.
Besides, Dongfang dissolved the main hall of Renshou Palace, and led the personal maid Liangyin all the way through several arches and went straight to the gate, just as she was about to approach the last arch, a whisper from another part of the palace wall couldn't help but slow her down.
"I heard that the emperor has sealed that Yin Wanyi again! It's really a vixen embryo, and it will seduce the emperor..."
"Don't say it, she's still a disaster, and the princess was almost assassinated!"
"It is said that the princess still blames herself, that scourge is really clever, I'm afraid everyone will be bought by that scourge again!"
"What are you talking about?" Hearing this, he couldn't hold back any longer, and Dongfang Rong walked through the arch in a few steps and let out a cold sigh. When several women in verdant palace clothes turned around and saw that it was her, they were almost frightened, and they all fell to the ground to plead for themselves.
"The princess spares her life, the princess spares her life! The slave knows it's wrong! ”
begging for mercy came and went, Dongfang Rong snorted coldly, "I know it's wrong, tell me where you are wrong?" This princess listens! Come on, come on, let's talk about letting this princess hear about it. ”
"This..."Several maids looked at each other, stunned for two seconds, and then fell to the ground and cried. Dongfang Rong saw that these people were chewing their tongues behind their backs, but they didn't dare to admit it, so they were angry, and they were about to be reprimanded fiercely, when Liang Yin on the right behind him pulled her sleeve and whispered: "Princess, this is in the Queen Mother's Palace, don't you ignore the Queen Mother's face..."
Liangyin's words made Dongfang Rong depressed a little, in the palace of the Queen Mother, she is a junior, and it is not good for her palace people to skip the level and teach her. With a cold snort, Dongfang Rong warned a few people: "You all remember, next time you get together to chew the root of your tongue behind your back with more mouths and tongues, this princess will definitely tell the Queen Mother, why don't you get out of here?" ”
"Yes, yes, slave and maid remember! The slave and maid will leave..."
On the side of the net, several palace maids were amnesty, and they all said that they knew their mistakes and then retreated like they had smeared oil on the soles of their feet. Seeing them disappear, Dongfang Rong adjusted his mood and continued to set off towards the "destination".
After accompanying the Zheng family to finish eating, Dongfang Ke also left one after another. personally sent Dongfang Ke out of the palace gate, and the Zheng family was helped into the palace by the consul Mama Yingqiu. After a while, a middle-aged woman in a purple palace dress hurriedly came and stopped outside the main hall, knowing that the Queen Mother had been waiting for a long time, the chief manager Feng Yuan hurriedly brought her in.
"The queen mother really expected things like a god, the old slave let a few palace maids to test, as you expected, the princess heard what they were talking about, and she was indeed angry with a few palace maids." This purple palace woman is called Yingchun, and like Yingqiu, she has been the Queen Mother's confidant for many years.
"It's really a disappointment for the mourners."
Fiddling with the armor, Zheng threw out a sentence without raising his head. Yingchun Yingqiu was silent, understanding that she was a precursor to embossing anger.
It is also said that the queen mother has always been extremely concerned about the emperor's concubines, as an elder, she is not good to face to test which concubine, Princess Jiahe's temperament has always been hot and impulsive, the queen mother often arranges for the palace people in the palace to chew the root of the tongue when Princess Jiahe comes to deliberately give her heard, generally Princess Jiahe heard, will run to the concubine's womb to make a big fuss, so that the arrogance of the new concubine will be much lower.
Who knew that this time it was Yin Wanyi's turn, but she didn't expect that an assassin would come to the racecourse, Yin Wanyi's block, the princess couldn't afford to "torture" her again as if she had been poured * soup. Princess Jiahe has been loved by the Queen Mother for so many years, and now she actually came forward to scold the palace maid of Renshou Palace for a concubine, how can this make the Queen Mother not angry?
Thinking about it, neither of the two had a tacit understanding of comforting. Because Zheng has a problem for decades, he can't persuade when he is angry, and a persuasion will add fuel to the fire, plus burn himself, a few ignorant people in the early years have a few more words, and now the reincarnation I am afraid that he is more than ten years old.
Coming out of the Empress Dowager's Palace, Dongfang Ke instructed the emperor to return to the Qianqing Palace, and after approving the folds, he was in a pavilion full of trees and flowers all around, and he poured wine and drank alone.
A few months ago, Taishi Fu mentioned the words about the stars, and the spearhead was directly aimed at the Yin family, where the southwest of the imperial city was located. Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, Dongfang Ke is not very keen on the stars, Fu Taishi has been chattering in his ear, and there is no way to be nagged, so he paid attention to the daughter of the Yin family, who was sent to the palace.
What he didn't expect was that Yin Zhongxian's daughter seemed to have given him a lot of "surprises". Deliberately picked to sleep in the recurrence of old diseases, the pear hairpin that was "disguised" was never left, the fierce assassin was killed on the horse farm, and the extraordinary endurance for pain... But this qiē was actually made by a Jiaojiao lady who was raised in the boudoir since childhood. Counting the recent scenes, Dongfang Ke found that for her, the field he wanted to explore was getting bigger and bigger.
Two days ago, seeing that she kept calling A-Niang in her sleep, he couldn't bear to let someone pass Mrs. Yin over. But now it seems that the relationship between their mother and daughter is not good, including the sister who has never heard Yin Xiang mention it before, otherwise she would not subconsciously do something to her sister when she is not conscious, although she let go of her hand when she regained consciousness, but the hatred in her eyes has not had time to dissipate.
It seems that it is time for him to send someone to check on him, the new concubine. Thinking of this, Dongfang Ke put down his right hand that poured wine, "Mo Xian." ”
"The subordinates are here." There was one more person in the pavilion silently, this person was dressed in black brocade boots, and knelt down on one knee with both hands in fists.
The cold command gradually dissipated in the breeze, and Mo Xian took the order and quickly disappeared into this pavilion.
Sitting on the stone bench, Dongfang Ke's fingers rubbed the small wine cup around his body. Thinking of the "truth" that was about to be peeled off, his eyes couldn't help but become more profound.
