In Fengxiang Palace, the atmosphere is a little strange.

Today is the fifteenth day of September, and all the princesses and concubines have entered the palace to greet the queen. At this time, in Fengxiang Palace, in addition to a few high-grade concubines, there were also many princesses and princesses. To everyone's surprise, the eldest princess who was ordered by the emperor to recuperate in the princess's mansion was also there, seeing that she had changed her heroic appearance in the past, and sat on the chair with a delicate and pale face, which made the people present really unbearable.

Probably because of the rare attendance of the eldest princess, it seems that Princess Xian and Princess Ning, who came to greet the queen with their stomachs, are not so obvious.

Originally, Ah Bao thought that today was a very ordinary day, after asking the queen to say goodbye, the married women sat together and chatted about some homely gossip, and then looked at each other unpleasantly.

But who knows, the queen will suddenly smash a big thunder in front of so many people, Ah Bao is rarely a little confused, and then quickly corrected his mentality - this is also due to her habit of pretending over the years, no matter how frightened she is, she can quickly put on everyone's beautiful posture.

And after the queen suddenly said something similar to the Jin Palace's palace that should welcome a side concubine and take a concubine, everyone was stunned for a moment, and they couldn't help but look at Ah Bao.

However, to their disappointment, Ah Bao did not move his brows, and looked at the queen very calmly and purely.

The queen coughed and said euphemistically: "King Jin's child has suffered a lot from himself, and this palace also feels sorry for him, and now that he is married, there is a person around him who knows cold and hot, and this palace is relieved." Although King Jin was not born in Bengong, Bengong didn't want to wronged him. Princess Jin, these palace maids are all well-trained by the Internal Affairs Bureau, and they are all smart. ”

Ah Bao smiled gently and dignifiedly, "Thank you for the kindness of the queen mother, but there are enough people to serve in the house, if you take them back, I don't know where to serve." And ......" Ah Bao lowered his head a little embarrassed and said: "My lord's Yulu has been fined for thirty years, and there are no errands, and there are many people in the house, and the expenses are also large, you see......"

Po looked at the queen with a "you know" look, and the queen's face twitched.

Not only did the queen twitch, but the other people present also twitched, looking at her with an incredulous expression, although they knew that the King of Jin had been fined for thirty years, but the princess of Jin directly used this as an excuse to refuse the act of giving people from her elders, isn't it too much? Do you want fame? Shouldn't you swallow your anger and bring people to the house at this time?

Who knows, after the queen had convulsions, she echoed: "It is indeed reasonable! ”

Now it was the turn of the others to be surprised, obviously the queen's previous intention was to stuff these palace maids who had been carefully adjusted and trained by the Internal Affairs Office into the Jin Palace, and made a concubine for the King of Jin. And as the lord of the harem, the mother-in-law of the princes, the queen's move is also a matter of course, it is not surprising, they thought that the queen either looked at the princess of Jin unpleasantly, or really felt sorry for the king of Jin, so they wanted to send a few more palace maids to the palace of the king of Jin. But now, what's so good?

So, someone is in a hurry.

"Queen Mother, although the fifth emperor brother was fined Yulu, which prince relied on that little Yulu to eat?" Celestia spoke up, and she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed a few times, because the cough made her pale face flush twice, and she didn't look so weak. I only heard her say: "The fifth brother and sister are also really, can't the Jin Wangfu even support a few people?" There is no joke that the whole Jin Palace's mansion has to rely on the dowry of the five brothers and sisters to eat, and the five emperor brothers have also become soft rice eaters. ”

Ah Bao's eyes were slightly cold, and he laughed twice, "I didn't take a few gasps when I heard the eldest sister speak, it seems that my body is recovering well, and I am happy for the eldest sister in my heart." Seeing that the eldest princess was so angry that she was about to lose her temper, Ah Bao continued, "And the eldest sister is not right, although it doesn't cost so much silver, but in the past few years, because of the war against Beiyi, my father has been advocating frugality, and for this reason, the queen mother has also reduced the use of the harem." Could it be that I, as a daughter-in-law, can I be more luxurious than my mother? Therefore, as long as the people around you are enough, unnecessary idlers will not spend that money to raise. ”

Po spoke calmly, and the eldest princess stared at her with fiery eyes.

In this way, how could the people present not understand that the queen didn't want to offend Princess Jin by doing such a thankless thing, but who knew that the eldest princess came in with one foot. There is the figure of the eldest princess, which proves that maybe the emperor has spoken about this matter, so the queen has no choice but to express it meaningfully, but her heart is towards Princess Jin.

At this time, Princess Jin Jingqi of Qi also said: "Sister the Emperor, the Fifth Emperor's sister-in-law said very well, the border continues to fight every year, and the cost is very large, the father has mercy on the border soldiers and reduces the expenses of the palace, as a daughter-in-law, how can she ignore the hardships of her parents and enjoy herself comfortably." ”

Jin Jingqi is the daughter of the Jin family, and her dignified atmosphere is engraved in her bones, and she said this, which is really awe-inspiring and imposing.

The fifth princess laughed and said: "Hearing the words of the sixth brother and sister, I feel guilty as an elder sister. Thinking of my father and the border soldiers, in order to show some gratitude, I am willing to do my best for the border soldiers and donate a thousand taels of silver. ”

The crown princess also smiled when she heard this: "It seems that you are all knowledgeable, but I am an ignorant one." The queen mother, the sixth brother and sister and the fifth sister are all good, and the courtier-in-law is also quite guilty when she hears it, and the courtier-in-law is also willing to take out two thousand taels of silver from the dowry and donate it to the soldiers on the border. Winter is coming, so make them more winter clothes. ”

The smile on the queen's face couldn't stop when she heard this, and said: "You are all good children, and your father will be very happy when he learns the truth." There was a tacit approval of their actions.

The queen said so, and the topic has risen from whether the king of Jin wants to get a palace maid to go back to warm the bed to the national interests and personal ethics, although they are a little confused, but the others looked at it, and they could only echo it, and expressed their willingness to take out silver taels from their dowry to add some winter clothes to the border soldiers, and do their best.

The eldest princess was almost so angry that she vomited blood, and Princess Ning also wrung her handkerchief and glared at Jin Jingqi fiercely.

So, the topic shifted inexplicably, and the harem women led by the crown princess also donated generously, and the queen asked the first-class palace maids of Fengxiang Palace to take pens and booklets to record the silver money donated by everyone, and the royal princess and the ladies of the harem donated it was also a lot of money. After the records were summarized, the queen asked people to take them to the Taihe Hall for Emperor Zhengde to see.

As for later, in order to please the queen, the ladies of various families in Beijing said that they also cared about the country and the border soldiers, and also donated silver meaningfully, and after waiting for someone to summarize it, it was presented to Emperor Zhengde, and Emperor Zhengde was shocked - this amount was enough for the border soldiers for several quarters.

When Ah Bao left Fengxiang Palace, he naturally returned empty-handed, and he didn't bring a single palace maid - of course, the silver was also scattered for 1,500 taels, but everyone donated it, and they were not stingy with that little money.

After leaving Fengxiang Palace, Ah Bao walked with the fifth princess and Jin Jingxuan, and the three of them chatted casually at first, but then the topic began to turn to today's affairs. For the fact that Jin Jingqi and the fifth princess helped her talk at that time, Ah Bao thanked her.

Jin Jingqi said: "Fifth Emperor Sister-in-law, what is going on today...... It is estimated that the eldest sister made trouble. ”

The fifth princess groaned: "A few days ago, I heard that Princess Ning ran to the eldest sister several times, and I don't know what she is going to make a fuss about, you should be careful." As she spoke, the fifth princess pursed her lips disapprovingly.

said that Princess Ning did not wronged her, since the doctor diagnosed the happy pulse, Princess Ning's whole person has become expensive, and she can't stand the slightest grievance, the day before yesterday was just a few words with King Ning, and she will go back to her parents' house immediately, and she will only come back after the queen has to be picked up by King Ning in person. After this matter was spread by a subordinate in the Huainan County Palace, Princess Ning's reputation of being jealous and unvirtuous immediately spread throughout the capital.

Ah Bao nodded, thanked them for their concern, and then parted with them in front of the imperial garden, she wanted to wait for King Jin, who also entered the palace today.

After the two left, Po went to an open pavilion in the Imperial Garden, and then asked someone to call Linglong over.

Linglong is a little palace maid who serves in the imperial garden, and she is also Xiao Lingshu's hardcore subordinate, she is loyal to Xiao Lingshu, although she seems to be a little palace maid, she has great ability. As long as Ah Bao remembered the time when she was recuperating in the palace and serving Linglong, she felt a little stomachache.

Linglong came over quickly, and after saluting Ah Bao, she raised a tender face and looked at Ah Bao cutely.

Ah Bao felt sick to her stomach again - she couldn't live for another hundred years, and her acting skills were called a free sending and receiving.

With a smile on his face, Ah Bao spoke softly to Linglong and asked her if she was doing well in the palace these days. Linglong naturally thanked her for her concern, and looked at her with teary eyes, looking at it in the eyes of others, but Ah Bao thanked the little palace maid who served him to ask a few more words, and the little palace maid was also flattered.

Bao: =__=! Sure enough, in the palace, he has to act all the time!

"Linglong, has Princess Da Baohua entered the palace recently?"

"Yes, three days ago, Princess Baohua entered the palace and went directly to the Taihe Hall to meet the emperor." Linglong replied, then carefully peeked at Ah Bao, and said: "I heard that Princess Baohua came to the palace to ask the emperor for her guilt, and she cried again, and then the emperor forgave Princess Baohua and let her have time to enter the palace to ask the queen for peace." After Princess Baohua left, the emperor went to the harem. Later, the slave maid heard from a sister on an errand in the Internal Affairs Office that the next day, the queen asked people to go to the Internal Affairs Office to pick people, and the people selected were all ......"

Linglong is really a means master, obviously just a little palace maid serving in the imperial garden, but she is very well-informed, and she is really a talent.

From Linglong, Ah Bao learned that this time the queen suddenly proposed to give people, it must have been ordered by Emperor Zhengde, and what Emperor Zhengde ordered was that the eldest princess entered the palace to find what he said, so he personally ordered the queen to do this kind of offending thing. Seeing that today's queen echoed her lightly after she spoke, she knew that Queen Lu Dao didn't care much about this matter.

Thinking with her toes, she also knew that the eldest princess's move was just to block her, Ah Bao touched the soft whip in his sleeve, and felt a little pity in his heart, if the eldest princess didn't agree and waved the whip over, she would have an excuse to ask for advice, and she didn't know who was the deer to die. This way of directly engaging in conspiracy is really inconsistent with the temperament of the eldest princess, is it because she is not in good health now and has no power to whip and beat people, so she changed her conspiracy to conspiracy?

After letting Linglong leave, Ah Bao thought while waiting for Xiao Lingshu, because the crown princess Jin Jingqi and others interrupted today, the topic still has to be brought up again another day. If Emperor Zhengde doesn't give up, it is also possible to directly get a side concubine or something for the Jin Palace.

******

When Ah Bao was thinking about how to solve this matter, Xiao Lingshu had already rejected it head-on.

"What did you say?!" Emperor Zhengzhen said angrily.

The crown prince looked anxiously on the side, giving Xiao Lingshu a look, who knew that he didn't see it at all, and said in a cold and hard voice: "Erchen doesn't need some irrelevant people to serve, just have a princess." If you dare to get someone into the Erchen Mansion, it is none of the business's business to die. ”

"You-"

Xiao Lingshu looked at it coldly, stroked his sleeves and said: "The eldest emperor's sister is not in good health, and the heirs are difficult, if the father is really so concerned, it is better to give a few palace maids to the eldest prince of the Zhongwu General's Mansion, lest the martial arts will be the fault of the father." ”

Emperor Zhengde was almost half angry with him, Xiao Lingshu's words were not a slap in the face for him, thinking that he gave the eldest princess to Wu Lie to marry Wu Lie, which was completely a pit for Wu Lie! Give a woman who can't give birth, so as to cut off the incense of the martial arts family or something...... As long as the brain is a little more, it can be extended to the imperial means and the like.

Emperor Zhengde took a few deep breaths before he said, "Shut up, I don't want to hear your cold and rigid voice!" I just saw that there were few people in your house, and I gave you a few caring people to serve, do I want to harm you? I'm your father! In the last sentence, his voice was a little hoarse, with a bit of strange sadness.

The reason why Emperor Zhengde behaved like this was because of the unconscious sixth son, and the sixth son sent Jiangnan girls to all his sons, which made him suddenly realize that these five sons were different from other sons, since the age of fourteen, he should have understood people, and he has never had any women around him, not to mention, and now he has become a relative, and there is no concubine or anything like that, so he has to wonder if this son is not good.

In addition, the eldest princess entered the palace and talked to him about the father-daughter relationship, and after crying and repenting, she expressed her regret for what the King of Jin had done, and Emperor Zhengde naturally forgave her, and then the eldest princess showed her concern for the King of Jin with her actions, thinking that the princess of Jin had not been pregnant for several months since she was married, so it was not that this son was not good for women, so he wanted to give a few women to serve him. Who knew that he didn't appreciate it and didn't say anything, and sarcastically replied to him.

"Erchen already has a princess!" Xiao Lingshu is still the same sentence.

"Then let your princess give me a grandson!" to prove that he can do it.

Xiao Lingshu looked at him intently, and when he saw that Emperor Zhengde was starting to stiffen, he said: "The child is troublesome, what's the use of giving birth but not raising it." ”

“……”

Emperor Zhengde was speechless for a moment, silently looked at the young man who was standing proudly not far in front of the imperial case, closed his eyes for a while, and silently said to himself, this is the only thing that Ah Jing left him, and if it is broken, it will be gone......

"How are you going to bring those palace maids back?" Emperor Zhengde said expressionlessly.

Seeing the majesty of Emperor Zhengde, the palace people in the Taihe Palace did not dare to breathe, and even the prince did not dare to interject casually at this time.

Xiao Lingshu said coldly: "What do you want them for? Can you beat my princess? ”

“…… Get lost! ”

Xiao Lingshu turned his head and left, very simply.

"Wait!" The crown prince hurriedly called out to stop the people and said to Emperor Zhengde: "Father, the son of the emperor called the fifth brother over and has something to show to the father." ”

Xiao Lingshu obediently walked back, stood beside the prince like a log, didn't even look at Emperor Zhengde, and almost made Emperor Zhengde half angry, roaring in his heart, who is his father.

The prince sighed in his heart, knowing that if he didn't speak, don't think they could talk well. Recently, when the two met, the emperor was always angry, but the king of Jin was still painless and expressionless. In the past, the two ignored each other, although he was also a substitute in the middle, at least he didn't have to be a fire extinguisher anytime and anywhere.

"Father, there is news from Jiangnan, there are some things for you to see!" The prince said, took out a few folds from his sleeve and presented them to Emperor Zhengde.

When Emperor Zhengde finished reading the excerpt, anger flashed in his eyes, and then he said expressionlessly: "Old Five, you will go to Jiangnan in a few days." ”

Xiao Lingshu raised his eyelids, then turned his head away.

This childish action naturally surprised the prince, and Emperor Zhengde was also very surprised, in the past, this son was like a muffled gourd, telling everything to do obediently, never played like this, and clearly refused.

"Old Five, did you hear that?" Emperor Zhengde said patiently, he found that in front of this son who had been neglected, he was simply a king, a father was not a father, there was no majesty at all, no matter how he treated him, it was useless, and for some reason, there was always a sense of frustration. The other sons, which one is not respectful in front of him, no matter how bearish the king of Qi is, he is afraid of him, and no matter how arrogant the eldest princess is, she must listen to him, and regard the emperor's favor as a reliance.

The prince was afraid that Emperor Zhengde would be angry, so he hurriedly said: "What is the fifth brother's trouble?" ”

Xiao Lingshu looked at Emperor Zhengde, and Emperor Zhengde looked at him expressionlessly. Seeing this, the prince didn't know that the two of them were starting to compete, and the prince, who was treated as a sandwich cake, felt that this day was really impossible.

In the end, it was Emperor Zhengde who compromised - the country is now his, and if something happens, he is anxious, and he can't compromise if he doesn't compromise.

"Tell me, what are you going to do?"

Xiao Lingshu didn't have the slightest smugness of victory on his face, as if this was as it should be.

******

In Fengxiang Palace, when the queen heard that Chen Xiang, the chief eunuch of the Taihe Palace, had come to pass the word in person, she thought that she had heard a mistake.

"Queen Mother, the emperor said, Princess Baohua is not well, not suitable for work, a few days ago there were many slaves and maids in the princess's mansion sent to the Jingling Nunnery, I am afraid that Princess Baohua has no one to serve, so I gave a few palace maids to serve her, please let these palace maids be sent to the princess's mansion." Chen Xiang said with a smile.

Although the queen was surprised, she still responded happily on her face, and when she asked people to send those palace maids who were originally going to be sent to the Jin Palace's mansion to the eldest princess's mansion, Fang asked: "Chen Xiang, tell the palace honestly, what's going on." ”

Chen Xiang took the benefits of the queen, although he was not the queen's person, but he was willing to give the queen a convenience many times, so he lowered his voice and said: "Hey, His Royal Highness the King of Jin entered the palace today and went to the Taihe Palace, and he almost quarreled with the emperor before, and then the emperor agreed to a few requests from His Royal Highness the King of Jin." ”

The queen was taken aback, and saw Chen Xiang nodding affirmatively, feeling that her head was not enough.

After Chen Xiang left, the queen pressed her forehead, thinking back to the things of these days, and suddenly understood something. I'm afraid that at the time of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Princess Ping understood the emperor at a moment's notice, and let him begin to face the King of Jin. It's just that the emperor's disgust and resentment can't be eliminated all at once, so although he is not completely ignored now, his attitude towards King Jin is also extremely complicated, even if King Jin doesn't do anything, he can attract his eyes.

Husband and wife for more than 30 years, how can the queen not know the virtue of Emperor Zhengde, this is a man with a very small heart, but if he is good to a person, it is really good, the eldest grandson concubine is an example. If he wants to slowly start facing that son from now on, and then make up for him...... I am afraid that the king of Jin will become the most favored of all the princes, and even a kind of favor without any purpose.

However, thinking of the identity of the eldest grandson concubine, the queen was not very worried that King Jin would threaten the status of the crown prince, and the people of the Xiao family would not allow a prince with the blood of the eldest grandson to ascend to that place.

*****

When the eldest princess's mansion received the person given by the queen, the eldest princess was so angry that she couldn't stand the things that had happened in the past, so she naturally didn't want outsiders, but the queen's behavior was also extremely surprising, and she didn't know what the queen was doing and what her intentions were.

When Bao heard this, he was also a little dumbfounded.

"How's going with Princess Baohua?" Po's inquiry has become a bag of inquiry.

Yan Ran pursed her lips and smiled: "I heard that the princess's mansion is bustling there, and Princess Baohua is dizzy." And although those palace maids are serving the princess, who doesn't know that Lu Dao is actually serving the martial horses. ”

Ah Bao suddenly felt that the emperor's father had really done ...... Throughout Chinese history, many married princesses, even if they are no longer favored, but if they suffer any grievances in their husband's family, the emperor will definitely make Princess Shang's family unlucky, but this emperor has plucked his daughter, and even let his wife arrange women for his son-in-law.

What Ah Bao didn't know was that it was not Emperor Zhengde who was pit his daughter, but Xiao Lingshu, a cruel product, who was pit his sister, and one of the conditions for Emperor Zhengde's compromise was to send all the women who were supposed to be sent to the Jin Palace's Mansion to block Ah Bao's Mansion to block the eldest princess, which could be regarded as returning the favor to the other in his own way.

Ah Bao was both pitiful and secretly refreshed, and the two extreme emotions made her a little entangled, and she didn't have to think of it herself, and the matter was solved, so that she had to look suspiciously at the man who was reading quietly next to her.

Finding her gaze, the man pulled her into his arms very calmly and continued to read.

At this time, Mother Hua walked in, and was stunned when she saw the posture of the two, and when Ah Bao hurriedly got up, Fang pursed her lips and said to Ah Bao with a smile: "Princess, the ewe raised in the courtyard has produced milk, and the cook has squeezed some of it, so what is the use of letting the old slave come and ask you." Because Po once commanded that if the ewe gave milk, she must be told.

When Ah Bao heard this, he immediately put aside the matter of the eldest princess and hurriedly said: "First try to boil almonds and tea leaves to get rid of the fishy smell, and then add some sugar and bring it directly." Mom, goat's milk is a tonic for the body, so you can drink some if you don't have anything to do, don't think it tastes bad. ”

Mother Hua responded with a smile, thanked Ah Bao for her concern and went down again, and soon brought over the boiled goat's milk, which was two bowls.

After the goat's milk was brought over, Po touched the edge of the bowl, and was so hot that she quickly withdrew her hand and touched her ear, and then her hand was held by the man next to her.
