"Get up, the mourning family is just a casual remark." The man who got the hand took a closer look at the elegantly dressed woman—she was certainly not like an ambitious person. However, such wisdom is not a person who can stay for a long time. The Queen Mother snorted and narrowed her eyes slightly, "It's just that when it comes to Princess Ruqing, the mourning family misses it very much." For a while, you will stay alone and talk to the mourners. ”

Qingluan slowly raised her head, but saw that the Queen Mother was chuckling and staring at her. She knew that the Queen Mother had finally taken action, but she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, as long as the Queen Mother is willing to speak, it is better to see the tricks than to make a plan behind the scenes. What's more, the emperor will already go down to the early court, and if he sees that she is not returning, he will send someone to find her.

Sui Wen complied and said: "Yes, the concubine is deeply honored. ”

Seeing her so calm and free, the Queen Mother had a slight sideways look in her heart. Such a courageous woman has not been seen by the emperor's side for a long time. Right now, he is full of wings, and there are really some people around him who should not be underestimated.

"In that case, let everyone disperse. Queen, you also go back and have a good rest. ”

"The concubine retired." Qin Suyue took the lead in getting up, and all the concubines were like being amnestied. Concubine Wei Chen wanted to speak several times, but she couldn't find a chance. The queen bowed and retreated, and everyone rushed out. The Queen Mother leaned on the gold-inlaid throne, but her eyes narrowed slightly. From a distance, the peach blossom eyes seemed to contain a cold light.

"Sit down." She seemed to be tired, and after saying such a sentence, she fell into a long blank, Qingluan's body leaned forward slightly, but her hands were clenched into fists in her sleeves, and she didn't dare to slack off at all. The person in front of him is a generation of demon queens who have trapped their own sons in injustice and dominated the imperial power.

"The emperor of the mourning family has been staying in Liuyue Pavilion every night recently, and he is quite fond of you."

"The Queen Mother killed the concubine. The concubines are not as favored as half as the queen or the concubine Chen, how dare they take on a favor. ”

"You don't have to be too humble. Being too modest will only make people feel unapproachable. ”

The woman bowed her head quietly and only answered "yes".

"I heard that you have a sister?"

Qingluan was taken aback, but saw that the Queen Mother was smiling at herself, and she couldn't afford to think about it under her eyes. "Exactly, the eldest sister Yuan, for the sake of her grandson, inherited her father's surname. She has treated her concubines very well since she was a child. ”

"Even so, you are in the palace, and you should also think of your family." The Queen Mother lowered her head to taste tea, but deliberately hung half of her words without saying anything.

Qingluan's father's family made a living in the silk business in the Jiangjia area, although it was not a big family, but it was also famous. Such a family background cannot be sealed, and it is difficult for her to gain a foothold in the court no matter how favored she is. A woman like her is rumored to be killed in the palace, but she still wants to compete with the Qin family.

- The Queen Mother smiled coldly and put down the teacup heavily.

"The mourning family has been bored in the palace recently. When people are old, they always want someone to come and have a companion. You are so well-behaved, presumably your eldest sister is also smart and lovely. It's better to seal Mrs. Sanpin and enter the palace to be a companion with the mourning family. ”

"The concubine is from a humble background and does not ......"

"Your mother is not favored at home. If your family is prosperous because of you, neither you nor your mother have to work too hard. ”

Qingluan was finally speechless. Yes, it's no longer up to her to say something to avoid bad luck. The queen mother knows her family background well, so she wants to ask for the eldest sister who has been friendly to her since she was a child, and she is still waiting for the eldest sister in the boudoir to come over as a hostage. Snatching treasures, isn't this the queen mother's usual trick.

She thought she had nothing, but she forgot that there was a family far away from Gyeonggi. Whether she agrees or not, the Queen Mother will not give up.

"The Queen Mother is willing to raise the eldest sister like this, and the concubine thanked the Queen Mother for the eldest sister first. It's just that the eldest sister is an ordinary family after all, and she doesn't understand the rules of the palace. The concubine is afraid that she will speak disrespectfully and anger the queen mother, so I dare to ask you to allow my sisters to meet first, and the concubine can also tell her some court taboos. ”

The Queen Mother was still smiling, nodded and said, "You two sisters have a deep relationship, and it should be." That being the case, a few days later, the mourning family sent someone to pick her up and named her a three-grade Duanru lady. ”

Qingluan lowered his eyes, but his palms were already dense beads of sweat. The eldest sister has a gentle and virtuous temperament, how could she have thought that this honor that fell from the sky was to cost her life as a gamble. The Queen Mother was telling herself not to follow in the footsteps of Emperor Jin. However, this is already the case, and it is not something that can be walked away. After all, she has a grudge against the Qin family, and she will not be in the same league with them no matter what.

Out of Chaofeng Palace, I suddenly felt that the sun was too dazzling, and I asked only to know that it was almost noon. Su E knew that she had just been left alone by the Queen Mother, and something must have happened, so she didn't ask too much. It was Qingluan, who worked hard in his heart, and felt this heaviness, and suddenly burst into tears halfway through.

She had never been seen like this before, but now the weight of just a few words was too much for her to bear. Su E was shocked, and hurriedly handed over the handkerchief and said: "Why did the little master become a concubine, but he suffered from his crime." ”

"If the Queen Mother punishes me, I can bear no matter how hard I suffer, but I don't know that even my sister will be implicated."

Su E immediately knew the Qin family's tricks, but only said: "That little master regrets it." ”

Qingluan suddenly stopped crying, but saw Su E staring at him, and for some reason there was a strange stubbornness in his heart for some reason.

"No, everything I do is thought through. Even if I had to choose again, I would still go this way. ”

Yes, from acquaintance with the retainer to marrying into the palace. From being committed to the queen to joining forces with Concubine Chen. Even when she rescued Concubine Xian when she was dying, she never regretted the heartache of the moment when she learned that she was betrayed. Even if there is a haze that covers the sky and the sun, she wants to find a way with light.

Su E smiled faintly, "The little master must be tired, let's go back to the palace quickly." ”

After saying this, I was a little exhausted. There are still too many things to deal with, and she must go back to the palace to think about the next step.

"It's better not to tell the emperor about this matter, his mother and son have been fighting for a long time, if they make a big fight because of this, I will be guilty of instigation. Sooner or later, those who should know the Tao will know the Tao, so why bother to be a wicked person. ”

The sedan chair was stable, and he saw that Bai Yu had knelt in front of the door to greet him. Su E lifted the sedan curtain, helped Xiang Concubine and said, "This girl is clever today." ”

After walking a few steps to Liuyue Pavilion, seeing that Bai Yu was just about to speak, Shui Qiao happened to bring lotus seed soup, and the woman's raised head hung down again, and Qingluan realized that something was wrong. Glancing at Su E, the other party understood, sent the woman into the house, turned around and said: "Bai Yu, where did you put the pearl hairpin that the little master told you to put away, and don't come in and prepare it for the little master." ”
