After the concubines in Cining Palace retreated, only the Queen Mother and Qin Suyue, who was the mother of the country, were gossiping in the apse. The green furnace lit incense, and smoke rose up, outlining the shadows of immortals in the damp air. Wisps of fragrant fragrance swirled in the empty hall, and the occasional wind blew in, and the golden bells on the drapery tinkled. The light of the day folded into the temple, and it was several times inferior to the gilded magnificence.

The Queen Mother leaned on the couch and closed her eyes on the goose feather hibiscus pillow, and the heat of the hand stove had unconsciously receded most of it. And the petite woman shrunk into her suit, constantly pulling the stove to her side. It's been decades since she came to the Northland, but she still can't get used to the cold. Especially in the middle of the night when she was lonely and uninhabited, every time she woke up and looked at the empty place next to the bed, she would tremble uncontrollably.

There are some lonely people in the hall, if it weren't for the too empty palace and too gorgeous furnishings on this side to remind that this is a harem, this scene is really some ordinary people's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law filial piety.

"Why does my aunt have to be so angry today," after a while, the queen finally spoke, with a little doubt in her words, "She is just a little palace maid, how can she be so angry." ”

The Queen Mother slowly opened her eyes, and she could vaguely glimpse the style of the year in her cloudy pupils. She looked at the woman in front of her who had been with her since childhood, but there was no trace of pity in her eyes. "Since she is Concubine Chen's person, how can she be allowed to get cheap, how does the mourning family tell you on weekdays."

"Aunt," the queen said lightly, interrupting the following words with some disapproval. In front of the Queen Mother, she was just like an ordinary woman, taking off her heavy gorgeous disguise, "It has always been a common thing for a royal woman to be favored or fall out of favor, Su Yue understands, compared to Concubine Chen, not to mention the emperor's ......" Her voice suddenly weakened, the woman lowered her eyelids, and her thick eyelashes cast a shadow on her beautiful face: "What's more, the emperor treats his concubines very well." ”

"What kind of person Hao'er is, don't you understand the mourning family?" The Queen Mother cast a cold glance at her, raised her hand and stroked her sideburns, "You two are acting in front of people, and you look loving, but it's not you who suffers the most, otherwise why wouldn't your stomach still move." ”

The queen bowed her head and smiled: "It's Suyue who doesn't fight ...... spirit"

The Queen Mother couldn't help but sigh. The emperor has a fierce temperament since he was a child, and he refused to submit because the first emperor changed the prince to wash the horse without authorization, and hid in the place where the subordinates lived in Changxin Palace and refused to come out, and he didn't eat or drink, and he was anxious to spoil everyone. The first emperor was furious and left with his sleeves up, and when he left, he put down his cruel words, and he didn't deliver meals for a day if he didn't come out. The young emperor was carried out for three days without food, and the queen mother was in full favor at that time, holding the thirteenth prince Yusheng who was still in her arms and waiting to be fed, pleading in front of the Qianqing Palace. In the end, the first emperor gave in, and he gave up only after resuming his original job of washing horses.

After that, it was rumored in the palace that if the three princes became kings one day, they would be the lords of troubled times, vigorous and resolute, and they would practice hard. Since then, because of the pro-government issue, there has been a discord between mother and son between him and the queen mother, and the same queen Qin Suyue is even more nameless. Qin Suyue is five years older than him, with a gentle personality, although he is a childhood sweetheart with the emperor, but the woman's tolerance everywhere is not to his liking. After the marriage, he was forced to marry such a queen, and in the eyes of others, the young couple was in love, but they did not know that one party was in dire straits.

This woman in a red golden phoenix robe has looked over the railing more than once, and the grievances in her heart are unspeakable. She thought that if she was not the queen who was forced to sit on the phoenix chair at that time, but the bright and gorgeous girl who held hands and smiled when he was a child, would this man she loved no longer have hatred in his heart, and would it be easier to accept her. When did the boy who was willing to call himself his sister and swore that he would not marry her when he grew up, he became indifferent to himself and became another person.

In fact, although the emperor is not satisfied with his concubines, he is also very respectful, and the concubines are already very content that they did not make a fool of themselves in front of everyone.

As soon as the words came out, they immediately aroused the queen mother's stronger dissatisfaction, and the old queen mother seemed to be all about her, and even looked forward to the emperor's mercy more than the queen herself. "The emperor has no heirs now, if you give birth to the dragon species, it will be the rightful crown prince and the heir of the Great Wei Kingdom. In such a situation, how can you be satisfied with a formality? ”

The queen pursed her lower lip tightly, and was speechless for a moment. The Queen Mother saw that she looked depressed, so she didn't say anything more. The hall fell silent again, but the two of them were in very different moods at the moment. One is hating iron but can't help it, while the other is meditating on how to win back the young husband's heart.

The queen stared ahead, stunned for a moment. The scene from the past is vivid, and my hands have clenched into fists at some point. Yes, everything has just begun, and instead of sighing day and night that the emperor is staying in her dormitory, it is better to try to fight for it yourself. She has always been pampered, and she has never had the courage to confront people head-on. She thought that to become a queen, she didn't need to be vigilant all the time. However, the truth is that this forbearance has created itself as a puppet.

She suddenly remembered that when she was still in the house, she was bullied and slandered by her people everywhere, and her heart was by no means as calm as water at that time. She didn't want to be slaughtered, and she wasn't a kind and innocent person, so since it had come to this, why not try to fight them. Thinking like this, the queen had already raised her head dignifiedly, and there was a faint dim light in her eyes.
