Xia Meng also learned about Cining Palace's invitation to watch a play when he accompanied Emperor Cheng Xuan to have a royal meal.

"If you're not feeling well, you don't have to go." Emperor Cheng Xuan stretched out his hand and grabbed a chopstick pearl fish stewed on the porcelain plate in front of her, and when he saw that she was just bowing her head to eat, he couldn't help but comfort a few words, "The queen mother is not an unreasonable person, you are unwell now, I think she can understand." "It's just that in the final analysis, the queen mother wants to mention Su Manyan more in front of the harem concubines.

Xia Meng raised her eyes to look at him when she heard this, her beautiful face was still as cold and glamorous as the snow in the mountains, but her eyes were soft: "There is no need to be like this, the concubine is still young in the next month, and it is not to the point where she can't move, and the queen mother has invited her many times, and the concubine can't just refuse." ”

Since the queen mother returned to the palace, she summoned the concubines in Cining Palace many times for various reasons, and her purpose was clearly revealed.

The first is to swear his status, the master of the harem, and the second is to let the concubines understand that Su Manyan must enter the palace, and his status will never be low.

In just one month, many concubines in the harem defected to the queen mother, after all, no matter how powerful the queen mother is, she can't fight the queen mother, right?

Emperor Cheng Xuan obviously knew these things, so he became bored in his heart.

As a son, he is naturally willing to worship and respect his mother, although she has not contributed a little to his accession to the throne, but it is enough to give birth to him. And as the emperor, he really can't stand the people in the harem who want to stretch out his hand to the court! The people of the Su family actually won over the courtiers in a grand manner, and they also intended to seek a higher position!

It's just relying on the queen mother!

"Well, I'll go with you today."

Xia Meng saw his intimate posture and smiled slightly: "Third brother doesn't have to be like this, you still have a piece of music to review, the affairs of the harem really can't bear to bother you anymore." ”

A smile appeared on Emperor Cheng Xuan's face, gently touched her cheek, and teased: "Tianmeng also knows that he cares about the third brother, can the third brother still watch Tianmeng be wronged?" Don't worry, I'll go back after reading the recital. Saying that, he couldn't help but sigh, "If the queen mother embarrasses you, you don't have to put up with ......it" After all, Xia Meng has never treated the queen mother badly, and even before she ascended the throne, she has always relied on the relationship of the Xia family to survive in the palace and ease.

He remembered how when he was young, when he was returning from class, at the gate of the palace, he heard the queen mother and the maidservants beside him calculating Tianmeng.

The queen mother didn't know the grace, but he couldn't.

Wang Yong was so happy that his heart was excited, he was waiting by his side after Emperor Cheng Xuan ascended the throne, although he knew that the pure concubine and the emperor's childhood sweetheart had no guesses, but the real details were not clear, and now I heard the emperor say this to know what the status of the pure concubine was.

I was worried in my heart, I was afraid that in the future, no one would be able to defeat the status of the pure concubine.

Xia Meng looked at him in a daze, and saw that there was a clear apology in his eyes, and couldn't help frowning: "How can you say this?" The Queen Mother is the mother of the third brother and the queen mother of the Great Zhou, she just said that everything should be done, how can the concubines tolerate it? ”

Emperor Cheng Xuan sighed, he understood what Xia Meng meant, and in the final analysis, it was only because of himself that he was willing to grieve his temper. I have to say how wonderful the brain supplement is.

"Tianmeng, the third brother will be good to you." As he spoke, he looked at her lower abdomen softly, "And our emperor." ”

No matter how many hardships there are in the harem, with his secret help, she can always be safer-

Dividing line-

The queen mother was half-lying on the chaise longue and carelessly pinched her shoulders by Su Manyan, and when she heard the palace maid report that the pure concubine was serving in the imperial study and had lunch with the emperor, she looked at the void faintly, and her voice was cold: "The emperor really loves the pure concubine." ”

The palace maid kneeling below shrunk her neck when she heard the sound, and she really felt very gloomy.

Su Manyan couldn't help but become anxious, but because of the fear of the queen mother, he could only kneel at her feet and whispered: "Auntie, the emperor's cousin is so fond of Concubine Chun, which is very detrimental to the harmony of the harem!" ”

The queen mother still didn't understand anything when she saw her like this, but after all, she was her niece, how could she be willing to reprimand, she could only comfort her gently: "Don't be too sad, the emperor crawled out of the belly of the mourning family, can the mourning family not understand him?" In the final analysis, it's just because Concubine Chun once helped him ascend the throne and was kind to her. Moreover, the Xia family is full of loyal ministers, and the emperor naturally treats her a little kindly. ”

Su Manyan was unhappy in her heart, and she didn't dare to bring it out on her face, so she could only bow her head and whisper with a cowardly retort: "It is a matter of course for the Xia family to share the worries of the emperor's cousin, where is there any ...... that is not gracious" Speaking of which, she also felt very wronged, if it wasn't for the fact that the Su family was not capable enough, which round of credit for helping the new emperor ascend the throne get the Xia family?

The Queen Mother couldn't help frowning when she saw her like this, and her tone was a little cold: "As the daughter of the Su family, how can you be so petty?" It is an established fact that the Xia family has merit, and if you want to enter the palace, it mainly depends on the emperor's intentions. Saying that, he felt that she was not angry, and reached out and nodded her forehead, "If you have the ability, let your cousin himself want to admit you into the palace, and you have to worry about everything!" ”

Su Manyan hurriedly went up to beat her legs, her face was full of flattery: "My aunt is my cousin's biological mother, so naturally everything is useful, Yan'er is low-minded, and she has to give her aunt advice on everything!" ”

The Queen Mother snorted and felt a little more comfortable: "That's it, you, you're still a child." "In the end, the Su family still has to rely on themselves to get to this point, who would have thought that the daughter of the Su family's side branch entered the palace to give birth to an unfavored prince, and finally became the queen mother?

"Queen Mother, the stage outside has been set up, and the ladies are already waiting for you in the side hall."

When the queen mother heard this, she only raised her eyebrows slightly, and slowly raised her hand to let the palace maid put on the armor for her, and the golden pattern was shining and luxurious: "Who didn't come to the high position?" She invited these concubines to come, and she naturally returned to her, but she naturally stood on the queen's side and passed the buck as much as she could.

The palace maid reported in a low voice: "The queen mother, the pure concubine, and the jade concubine have not arrived." ”

"Hmph." The queen mother snorted coldly, her eyes were full of confidence, "I am very loyal to the queen, the mourning family has always been too gentle, presumably they have to forget who is the master of the harem." Go, send someone to invite them over, and whoever is unwell will bring the imperial doctor! If you are not sick, you are deceiving the mourning family! ”

Su Manyan applauded repeatedly: "Aunt is wise! I couldn't help but sneer in my heart, even if I was the emperor's cousin's good wife and concubine, what if I didn't have to listen to my aunt?
