Cai Wei said with a smile: "Since this eldest lady likes to kill, let's treat the other in the other way!" ”

"Master, what now?"

Cai Wei sneered, she thought that after the louse Gu incident, she should stop and live her life in peace, but she didn't expect that she was still bouncing, and it was getting more and more excessive, she actually wanted to kill her, she was really looking for death!

"So it's her?"

Brother Parrot said: "It's the young lady of the General's Mansion - Li Ruizhu!" ”

Cai Wei said coldly: "Who is it?" ”

On the third day of the hunt, Brother Parrot replied, "Master, I have already found out who is the person who teamed up with Helan Qing and Tuotuo to assassinate you!" ”

……

Nangong Yi said disappreciably: "In front of you, what kind of beauty is she?" At best, he is a living person with sound limbs and facial features! ”

Hearing that he compared Miss Ning to pig food, Cai Wei burst into laughter, nodded at his forehead and said, "You guy, Miss Ning has a deep love for you, and you don't marry you, but you don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, you really let down the beauty!" ”

The corners of Nangong Yi's mouth twitched: "I will be tempted by her?" I didn't even look at her when I didn't have you as a goblin, and now that I have you, how can I be tempted by her? Have you ever seen a person who doesn't eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas and goes to eat pig food? ”

Cai Wei smiled: "I want to stop her thoughts, I really have to let her stay by our side, but don't worry, I will let her retreat!" Of course, if you don't have a heart for her! ”

In the evening, when Nangong Yi came back, Cai Wei told him the news that Ning Huaixiu would enter the palace as a palace maid three days later, Nangong Yi frowned, and said in disgust: "It's okay if she wants to enter the palace, just find a place to settle her, don't let me be upset!" ”

The old lady wiped her tears and said gratefully: "Grandmother knows that you are a reasonable person, and grandmother has thanked you for the whole mansion of Liguo......

Cai Wei said: "Grandmother, don't worry, I will try to let the queen mother as much as possible in the future, as long as the queen mother is not too much, I will not compete with her like the high!" ”

Now, thinking of what happened to Empress Dowager Mo before, she felt less hateful, her behavior must be an irrational reaction made by a woman whose psychology has been suppressed to the point of distortion, she is not only Nangong Yi's mother, but also a poor woman, worthy of her forbearance and sympathy!

Her lover must have loved her very much, and when he learned that there was no possibility between them, he did not hesitate to die for his love, and such a loyal and unswerving love made her awe-inspiring and worthy of her respect!

Unexpectedly, Empress Dowager Mo had such an experience, a young and beautiful aristocratic girl, with a beautiful love and vision for the future, but because of the needs of the family, she sacrificed her lifelong happiness, ruined her love, and entered this cold and ruthless deep palace......

Cai Wei listened, and felt a burst of emotion in her heart!

The old lady talked about the sore spot, and the old tears flowed up.

Over the years, she has fulfilled the duties of a daughter of the Mo family and preserved the glory and status of the Mo family, but her own inner pain has nowhere to confide, she can only hold it in her heart, day after day, year after year, the inner depression makes her more and more perverse and unpleasant, so, under heavy pressure, she often does some excessive things. Grandmother sees the injustice to you and will tell her slowly, but she has been suffering for decades, and grandmother wants to beg you not to worry about her poor person, if she is not happy with you, you come to grandmother, grandmother will talk about her, just don't let her lose face in front of everyone......"

As a general, how could he not know the danger of patrolling alone, obviously knowing that she had entered the palace, he felt that he had nothing to love in life, and he hurried to find death. When your mother learned of this, she fell seriously ill and almost died, and then after the illness was cured, her temperament became more and more indifferent after she recovered. ”

"She is not favored, not because she has a small dowry, not because she is not beautiful enough, but because she herself does not want to compete for favor. Her sweetheart, is stationed between the Mengnu and the Jin Dynasty a young general, at that time between the Mengnu and the Jin often fight, after she entered the palace, the young general one day went out to inspect alone, as a result of bumping into a group of Mengnu people, the two sides fought, although the general killed most of the Mengnu people, but in the end he was cut down because of the body, the head was different, and he died. ”

When she said this, the old woman's eyes were red, and she choked up and said: "Actually, your mother has been hard enough for all these years, originally, she is also like you, she has her own sweetheart, she can marry her sweetheart, and live happily for a lifetime, but in order for the whole family to continue to survive and avoid the retaliation of Concubine Jin, she resolutely gave up her happiness and entered the palace, and she was alone in this treacherous deep palace to endure and support, how many conspiracies and calculations she had to face every day, The slightest mistake can lead to a catastrophe. ”

The old lady sighed: "Grandmother knows that you are a good person, grandmother wants to ask you to look at your grandmother's face, don't worry about her in general, in fact, your mother was not like this before, she was also very gentle and reasonable when she was a girl at home, but later in order for the family to continue to survive, she entered the palace, more than 20 years of palace life, the palace is deceitful, you live and die, and she has been grinded into this extreme and mean temperament, you also know that human nature is not cultivated overnight, It's not something that can be changed overnight, grandmother will persuade her well, let her slowly change, you also promise grandmother, don't let her lose face in front of people, try to let her, okay? ”

Cai Wei said: "If grandmother can really persuade to listen to the Queen Mother, it is really Wei'er's blessing, grandmother doesn't know, since beating Wei'er through the door, the Queen Mother has been looking down on me in various ways, either to find fault with me, or to give me small shoes, which makes me miserable, and sometimes I have to fight back, otherwise, she may not be too much!" ”

The old lady said: "Niangniang is a person who understands, since she knows what the old body wants to say, the old body doesn't have to beat around the bush." The old body thinks that the Empress Dowager Mo is certainly at fault, but she is your mother-in-law after all, sometimes, the queen still saves her some face, the old body knows that you don't blame you for these things, and the old body will also persuade her later, tell her to save some trouble, don't look for trouble all day long! ”

Cai Wei smiled: "Grandmother, do you want to talk about the matter between Cai Wei and the Queen Mother?" ”

The old lady owes a debt and says: "Niangniang said that she laughed, now Niangniang is the mother of a country, how dare you teach you, but there are a few words, I don't know whether to say it or not?" ”

Cai Wei personally brought the tea cup and presented it to the old lady, and said with a smile: "Grandmother has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, but what do you have to teach Cai Wei!" ”

After the old lady finished worshipping, she was helped up by Cai Wei herself and sat on the edge of the kang in the East Warm Pavilion.

The thinking of the ancients was different from that of modern people, and Cai Wei couldn't stop her, so she had to reluctantly accept her gift.

The old lady said: "Niangniang, the etiquette cannot be abolished, for decades, the old body has always been strict with the rules, and dare not exceed the slightest bit, that is, when the former queen mother was in the back position, the old body every time she entered the palace to meet her, she was a big courtesy." ”

The old lady stepped forward and was about to salute Cai Wei, but Cai Wei stepped down to the ground and helped her to stop: "Grandmother, don't be like this, you are an elder, don't you want to give me a salute, don't you want to break my life?" ”

The old lady Liu didn't let her wait too long, and after about a cup of tea, she saw Xiaozhi leading her in.

Today, she slapped the Empress Dowager Mo in the face in public, and the Duchess of Liguo would definitely come to ask her, so after she came back, she didn't go out to find Nangong Yi, but changed into her homely clothes, leaned on the kang in the East Warm Pavilion and waited for her arrival.

Leaving the palace of the Empress Dowager Mo, Cai Wei sat on her own phoenix and drove back to the palace where she and Nangong Yi lived, and when she entered the house, she said to the eunuchs and palace maids who were waiting outside, "The Duchess of Liguo will come over later, she doesn't have to report when she comes, just invite her in!" ”

As long as she can share the queen's favor and suppress the queen's arrogance, she will be content!

In fact, Empress Dowager Mo wanted to give Ning Huaixiu a position, but the emperor personally promised that she would no longer accept concubines in this life, and the queen would not spit out to the emperor to accept concubines, and she would not be able to directly canonize her by crossing them, besides, with Mu Caiwei's temperament, she would be canonized, and she would not approve of it, rather than make her faceless in public at that time, it is better to take a step back, anyway, Miss Ning has entered the palace, with her talent and love for the emperor, sooner or later she will be favored by the emperor!

The matter was settled, and in three days, Miss Ning would enter the palace as a palace maid and serve by the emperor's side.

Ning Huaixiu said resolutely: "Huaixiu is as willing as a glutton, and he dies without complaint!" ”

Cai Wei said with a smile: "Since the queen mother has decided, the concubine should obey her fate, but the dignified prime minister's daughter, being a palace maid with no name, does Miss Ning really think it's worth it?" ”

After speaking, he turned to Cai Wei and said, "Empress, the palace has decided to let Miss Ning enter the palace, what do you say?" ”

Empress Dowager Mo was just stunned by Cai Wei, and just came to her senses, seeing that Mrs. Ning wanted to regret it, she hurriedly said: "It's rare that Miss Ning is infatuated, since you have decided to enter the palace, this palace will definitely fulfill you." ”

Mrs. Ning also burst into tears and said, "You foolish child, you are also the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, what kind of family can't you marry?" Why do you have to be willing to go into the palace to be a palace maid? What do you want your mother to say? ”

Miss Ning shook her head and said with tears in her eyes: "Mother, my daughter is not filial, and entering the palace to serve the emperor is my daughter's greatest wish in her life, and I ask my mother to fulfill it!" ”

Mrs. Ning exclaimed: "Huaixiu, the matter is very important, how can you be willful?" Don't come back soon, beware of your daddy being angry with you! ”

When everyone heard this, they were all surprised, they couldn't imagine that the dignified prime minister's daughter would be willing to be so cheap, and she could even accept the identity of the palace maid!

When Miss Ning heard this, she understood that her mother had defected and given up on her entry into the palace, and her heart suddenly pulled out the cold, she stood stiffly for a moment, suddenly knelt down, kowtowed to Cai Wei and said: "The queen, the courtiers are not talented, and they are not worthy of serving the emperor in the position of concubines, and the courtiers are willing to enter the palace as palace maids and serve the emperor!" ”

After speaking, he beckoned to Ning Huaixiu: "Huaixiu, quickly kowtow to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and go back to your mother." ”

Mrs. Ning couldn't sit still for a long time after hearing Cai Wei's words, and when she saw her daughter looking at her, she sighed softly, shook her head slowly at her daughter, got up and played: "Yu Niangniang, my family is an honest official, and the prime minister's mansion only relies on a little bit of Xiangye's money and a few dowry Zhuangzi of the concubine body to live, and she can't take out the dowry required by the mother, and the little girl is like a willow, not worthy of serving the emperor, let's stop the matter of choosing, the concubine will take her daughter back, don't dare to be delusional!" ”

When Miss Ning heard this, she looked at her mother with a white face, wondering how much dowry her mother could give her and what kind of position she could have.

Cai Wei said: "When Concubine Jin and the Emperor Taishang met in Weiwei, and she blocked the knife for the Emperor, how can this love be measured by money?" If you also helped the emperor when he didn't meet him, then you don't need a dowry, let alone a great background, you can directly get the emperor's favor! ”

Hong Xiuju said unconvinced: "Queen Mother, I think that Concubine Jin was from a humble background back then, and she didn't have a dowry of a penny, didn't she also spoil the harem for more than 20 years?" ”

Empress Dowager Mo was slapped in the face by her daughter-in-law in public, her eyes were so angry that she almost fainted, she propped up the table and didn't let herself fall, but she covered her chest and couldn't speak.

Cai Wei said unceremoniously: "Don't talk about you back then, I think you were in the middle palace at the beginning, but you were bullied by a low-born Jin Guifei for more than 20 years, and even the prince can't become the prince, don't you know if the dowry is too thin?" If you also have a dowry that rivals the country, I don't think that the Jin concubine will dare to torture you so far, and the emperor will not suffer so much with you in those years! ”

Empress Dowager Mo sneered: "I think when I entered the palace, I only brought a dowry of 80,000 taels, and I also became the queen of the Great Jin Kingdom for more than 20 years, and the concubines in the palace have not heard of anyone who was promoted because of the rich dowry." ”

Cai Wei glanced at the Empress Dowager Mo, and said in a cool voice: "Don't take the queen mother out of context, the concubines have never said that they don't look at the concubines' origins and conduct, but they just want to ask for their dowry on the basis of their origin, conduct and appearance, this is not too much, which family here does not have a net worth of hundreds of thousands, and it will not hurt the vitality of the 100,000 200,000 yuan to marry their daughters, just see if they are reluctant to give up!" ”

After listening to Cai Wei's words, Miss Ning's heart was cold, her father and mother only prepared a dowry of 30,000 taels of silver for her, if she relied on this idea of money, she couldn't even be the lowest lady, and before she could express her position, Empress Dowager Mo was angry and said: "Ridiculous, according to what you say, the emperor's harem concubine is no different from selling the lord's beard, the concubines can be regardless of their background, as long as whoever has money, who can be in a high position, it is ridiculous!" ”

Cai Wei said with a smile: "This palace is the queen, and the emperor who brought a dowry worth more than one million taels to marry, the concubines naturally can't be compared with the palace, as long as the daughter of a young lady with an innocent background and a dignified character, if she has a dowry of 900,000 taels of silver, this palace can make her an imperial noble; 800,000 taels to be a concubine; 700,000 as concubines; 600,000 can be made concubines; 500,000 for Zhaoyi; 400,000 for Jieyu; 300,000 are beauties; 200,000 are talented people; a hundred thousand for the electee; 50,000 for the lady, and then down, is the palace maid, if the ladies have no money at home, and want to enter the palace to accompany the driver, you can only start from the palace maid, if you fight for your own energy, you can win the emperor's favor, and it is not impossible to be promoted in the future! ”

Miss Ning listened and said in a trembling voice: "Thank you for the guidance of the queen, the courtiers have been taught, dare to ask the mother, if you want to enter the palace to accompany the driver, how much silver dowry do you have to get?" ”

"Therefore, ladies who want to enter the palace to accompany you, you must not only have a noble character, but also have the style of abandoning the previous style of treating money as dung, and of course, you must have enough dowry."

After speaking, he glanced at Miss Ning and said: "Of course, entering the palace to accompany you is not just to have silver or the ability to make money, but also to have a benevolent and charitable heart, always think about the people of the world, for the sake of the country, not for the sake of your own fake and high image." ”

"If any young lady wants to enter the palace to accompany her, she can't share the worries of the emperor and can't benefit the people of the world, she just wants to rely on the dignified and sour pedantic style of fake and high to serve the emperor, not to mention that the emperor doesn't agree, even the palace will never agree."

"Also, the hundreds of support halls in our Great Jin Kingdom, tens of thousands of old, young, sick and disabled, are all supported by the power of this palace alone, and it doesn't cost the treasury a penny; Even the compensation money for the palace maids released a few days ago is supplied by the palace with their own bodies, if the queen mother does not believe it, she can call the head of the internal affairs office to come and ask, can the concubine take a stitch and thread in the palace? These things that help the society and benefit the people of the world are all done by the concubines themselves. ”

As soon as the words fell, the ladies who were still with a look of disdain just now all pondered, the queen's words were very reasonable, thinking about the emperor's embarrassment at the beginning, if it weren't for the queen's money, where would there be the emperor today?

Cai Wei said: "The queen mother's words are bad, food, clothing, housing and transportation are the foundation of people's livelihood, saying that people who care about money are vulgar, and people who are full of copper smell are pedantic and ridiculous, think that at the beginning, the emperor's Northern Expedition, was calculated by Jin Guifei, and the grain and grass allocated were all covered with mold, or mixed with chaff, the emperor was anxious, and bought grain and grass everywhere to fill the military needs, at that time he had all his pockets, and it was difficult to move, and he saw that the army's heart was turbulent, and it was about to change, it was the palace that did everything he could, and purchased grain and grass for him everywhere, pacified the army's heart, and helped him tide over the difficulties. With today's kingship in the world. Imagine the situation of that day, if it weren't for the copper-smelling silver coins in the palace, how could it be a few words of poetry and moaning from the queen mother's mouth, and a few paintings and calligraphy that pretended to be elegant? So, money is still very important! ”

Empress Dowager Mo sneered, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, as if she wanted to wipe away the mocking smile on the corner of her mouth, and said: "The queen is young and not serious, so she will say these words full of copper smell, think that I am the king of a country in the Great Jin Kingdom, sitting on the world, rich all over the world, do you have to care about the amount of dowry when marrying a concubine?" If this gets out, won't it make the Gentiles laugh and lose their teeth? ”

Seeing everyone's faint look of disdain, Cai Wei looked at Empress Dowager Mo with a disapproving smile and said, "What does the Queen Mother think?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone raised their heads in surprise and looked at Cai Wei incredulously, even Old Madam Liu looked at her in surprise, unable to believe that such vulgar words came out of her mouth.

Cai Wei saw that Empress Dowager Mo actually ridiculed herself in public, and she didn't even bother to do the most basic superficial work with her, of course she wouldn't swallow her anger, so she smiled and said: "What the queen mother said is very true, and the concubines think the same thing, but the emperor said that women's 'Ronggong and Virtue Business' are ranked at the front, which shows how important a woman's appearance is, but according to the concubine, the most important thing for a woman is not her appearance, but 'financial resources', that is, the dowry!" ”

Everyone heard that the queen mother was using the excuse to ridicule the queen's bewitching appearance, and confused the emperor, so they didn't dare to say anything, but only looked down at the tip of their nose, so as not to get into trouble.

Empress Dowager Mo said coldly: "The emperor's requirements are too strict, women put morality first, as long as they have good conduct and dignified appearance, what posture do you require?" Didn't get a room of foxes, the demon Qiaoqiao's, how can the fox charm the master? ”

After entering the house, Cai Wei saluted the Queen Mother, sat on her throne, and said, "The concubine heard that all the young ladies have voluntarily withdrawn, and only Miss Ning is left, I don't know what the Queen Mother thinks?" ”

All of a sudden, she didn't want her daughter to enter the palace, although her daughter said that if she couldn't marry the emperor, she would never marry, and she also promised her daughter to work hard once, but for some reason, after seeing the queen's smile, she suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart, this time, she would rather her daughter never marry for life, and she didn't want her daughter to enter the palace!

Mrs. Ning was also among these people, and at this time, her heart was very uneasy, and she always felt that there seemed to be too much content hidden in the seemingly casual smile of the queen mother just now, mockery, contempt, disgust, and discrimination......

As he spoke, he took Meng Huai'an's hand and walked steadily towards the house. The ladies walked behind Queen Mu in turn according to the high ground of their grades, and followed her into the house.

Cai Wei looked at Miss Ning, who was sincerely afraid, smiled, and said, "Miss Ning is serious, get up, let's go in and talk." ”

When Miss Ning heard this, she hurriedly knelt down and said eagerly: "The princess misunderstood the courtiers, the courtiers Pu Liu's posture, how dare the queen's bright moon compete for glory, but, it's just that the courtiers have wanted to serve the emperor since they were young, even if they are willing to be a palace maid, so they didn't quit, they never dared to think that they were detached, and they hoped that the mother would be clear!" ”

Chao Gui stepped forward and said: "Back to the queen's words, the emperor decreed, the young ladies who are not as good as the mother will automatically withdraw, and the young ladies think that they are not as beautiful as the mother, so they all took the initiative to withdraw, only the daughter of Ning Cheng's family thought that her appearance was better than that of the mother, and she did not quit." ”

Cai Wei said with a pleasant face: "Shicai talked to the emperor for a while, delayed the time, and you have been waiting for a long time, but I don't know if the queen mother has chosen to choose, which young lady has been selected to enter the palace to serve?" ”

The young ladies saw her so beautiful as a fairy, even if their hearts were full of jealousy, but they couldn't secretly be convinced, the appearance of the queen mother was really beyond the reach of these people, no wonder the emperor would favor her alone, and he couldn't tolerate others in his eyes!

This outfit is very solemn, easy to look old, but the person who wears it on her body is more and more like a jade carving, with fair skin, and it adds a bit of noble and majestic air than usual.

With a crown on the head, the crown is decorated with four golden phoenixes, the big golden phoenix in the middle holds a pearl round and jade, there is a green cover, drooping bead knots, and the rest of the small golden phoenixes are also beaded in their mouths.

Cai Wei took Meng Huai'an's hand and walked down from the phoenix, she was wearing a bright yellow court dress, embroidered with five-color nine-tailed colored phoenixes, with plain yarn in the single, black collar, placket side, skirt, inlaid with red embroidered three pairs of colorful phoenix patterns, tied with jade leather belt.

"Let's get flat!"

"See the Queen!"

With Meng Huai'an's lengthy singing and harmony, Cai Wei's phoenix fell to the ground outside Empress Dowager Mo's palace, and all the ladies and princesses all came out and saluted Cai Wei.

"The Queen Mother has arrived—"

After the Queen Mother said this, Miss Ning's face softened a little, but her face was still red and she didn't dare to raise her head.

Seeing that the old lady was so embarrassed by Miss Ning, Empress Dowager Mo hurriedly said: "Mother's words are not right, the ancients said: Men are like pots, women are like cups, how can there be a reason that a pot is only worthy of one cup?" Although the emperor and the queen are like glue now, they can't tolerate others, it's just because the two are still newly married, and after a few days, the emperor will naturally be tired, and when the queen is pregnant in the future, he can't let the emperor be lonely and cold, and no one will serve him! ”
