Chapter 32: The Dispute

Back in Chengqian Palace, Concubine Xian tiredly leaned on the big pillow near the window, thinking gloomily about the queen's words just now. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Xuanhui sat on the side and ate tea silently, thinking that it was no wonder that the old saying raises a hundred kinds of people. is also a favorite concubine, the concubine of her father in the previous life was so arrogant, she not only fought with the queen, but also had trouble with the prince and princess. The one in front of him is tolerant everywhere, careful every step, and has to sit here uncomfortably after being beaten by the queen for no reason.

She walked to Concubine Xian, sat down next to her, leaned her head on Concubine Xian's shoulder, and said coquettishly: "Mother, I heard people say that evil things are easy to do, but good people are difficult to be." You can be regarded as doing your best for Sister Hejing today, and when your father comes over, I will help you find your father and ask for a reward! ”

Concubine Xian smiled, her tired face lightened, and said, "I didn't do this for your father's reward. He Jing is a gentle and lovely child, and Li Meiren can't see the saint and the queen mother when she is idle. Since you have trusted me, you believe in me, and I must do my best. You can rest assured, the mother concubine is not sad, but she is a little sad for their mother and daughter. ”

After a short time, Emperor Yuan He came to Chengqian Palace. After Xuanhui saluted, he went out of the main hall, and when he came out, he saw the eunuch who was personally served by Emperor Yuanhe, Gao Quande, the chief eunuch of the Qianqing Palace.

Xuanhui always has a warm smile every time he sees him, which flatters Gao Quande. He couldn't understand why the most favored third princess suddenly looked at him.

And Xuanhui thinks about Gao Quande in the history books. He served on the side when Emperor Yuanhe was still a prince, and he has always been cautious and cautious, even when Emperor Yuanhe ascended the throne and entered the Qianqing Palace, Gao Quande was also diligent and never arrogant. In the 20th year of the national disaster of Yuanhe, the emperor did not choose to leave Beijing to avoid disaster, but insisted on staying in the capital and swore to keep the ancestral foundation. When the imperial city was breached, Emperor Yuanhe set a fire in the Qianqing Palace, burying himself and many concubines in the fire. Gao Quande took the few remaining little eunuchs under his command to guard outside the Qianqing Palace, and made the last and weakest resistance of the empire when the thieves came in. Gao Quande's head was different when he died, but he left a strong mark in the history books.

Xuanhui smiled at Gao Quande and said, "Father-in-law Gao, are you on duty today?" The two pots of Jianlan that I moved to my father's study a few days ago can be hung with buds? I've been busy for the past two days, and I haven't even been able to take a look! ”

Gao Quande bowed down and said with a smile: "Today is the slave who is on duty for the saint. I specially found an apprentice who is careful to take care of your two pots of Jianlan. Now there are four buds hanging in one pot, and six in the other. It's all a pair of numbers, you see how auspicious! ”

Xuanhui "giggled" and laughed: "Look at what you said, does this mean that there are good things in the Qianqing Palace, or do I have good things?" ”

Gao Quande said with a smile: "Don't screw these two things, the good things of the Qianqing Palace are naturally the good things of the princess, the good things of the princess are coming, and the whole of the Qianqing Palace is naturally happy!" ”

Xuanhui smiled: "Inherit your auspicious words!" The most important thing for me now is to learn to ride a horse, if I have learned it recently, I will reward you with a big red first! ”

Gao Quande smiled so much that all the wrinkles on his face came out: "Then the slave begged the princess to the Buddha every day!" ”

In the Chengqian Palace, Emperor Yuan He leaned on the big pillow with a tired face, and Concubine Xian knelt behind him and gently rubbed his temples.

After a while, Emperor Yuan He asked, "Did you go to the Queen Mother today?" What did you say? ”

Concubine Xian replied softly: "Sister Guifei said that she wanted to invite the young ladies of the two families into the palace to look at each other, and the Queen Mother allowed it." Speaking of which, the eldest princess picked up the honor guest for the county lord of Wenjin, and I mentioned that he was the same age as the county lord, so it was time to get busy. It's just that I was stupid and didn't say anything well, which made the queen more hearted and fell into a few words. ”

Yuan and Emperor pulled Concubine Xian, let her sit in his arms, and said, "What did she say about you?" ”

Concubine Xian forced a smile: "I didn't say anything. It's just that I think I can give the queen a reminder, and it's also a good thing, and Hejing should be in time at the end of the year......"

Emperor Yuanhe sighed, closed her eyes, and said, "She herself is not virtuous, and she can't listen to people's persuasion, it's really ...... You have been wronged. ”

Concubine Xian's eyes turned red, she held back her tears, and said with a smile: "Last time I told you about Xuanhui's husband, what did you think?" I've got a crush on one here! ”

Emperor Yuan He opened his eyes and said with a smile: "You are fast with your hands and feet!" Are you in such a hurry to receive your son-in-law's New Year's gift? Tell me whose son it is? ”

"What do you think of the prince of Chengguo?" Concubine Xian cautiously looked at Emperor Yuanhe's expression.

I saw him frowning and said, "Last time the Queen Mother's birthday, I summoned him over." I just thought that it was for Wen Jinxiang's husband. If we pick him for Xuanhui, how will the Queen Mother explain? ”

Concubine Xian hurriedly said: "The Queen Mother didn't say it explicitly, just because we guessed wrong." Besides, I don't think the meaning of the eldest princess is necessarily how satisfied she is with the prince of Chengguo. We can't grab Xuanhui and Wen Jin, can't we even pick up what she doesn't want? With that, tears rolled down her cheeks.

Emperor Yuan He hurriedly wiped her with his hands, and he was also very sad. But under the power of the Queen Mother, he did not dare to disobey the Queen Mother.

Concubine Xian saw that Yuan and Emperor didn't speak, so she added fire: "The meaning of the eldest princess's words is that she thinks that Pei Shizi is a capable person, and she can stand up without borrowing their momentum in the future, for fear that he will oppress the county lord in the future." I think it's good, let's Xuanhui is gentle and sensible now, find a sensible colt, and life will be not bad in the future, where to think about who bullies whom. Besides, I thought to myself that if the pony is useful, others will be able to treat me a little bit better in the future when they see Xuanhui and the pony......" As she spoke, her voice choked.

Seeing this, Emperor Yuanhe hurriedly got up, hugged Concubine Xian in his arms, and stroked her back with his hand. He felt bored in his heart, and he couldn't bear to push Concubine Xian away, so he sat there stiffly.

There was another war in Liaodong, and Tian Dengwen asked for the help of the troops and horses of the Guangdu Division. The squire of the Ministry of War believed that Tian Dengwen's move was an order of troops, and he overstepped his authority to make a decision for the Ministry of War, so he submitted a request for rejection. Immediately, there was a royal history book to impeach Tian Dengwen for being rebellious and using military intelligence for his own personal gain.

Cabinet Yang Shoufu believes that the military situation is urgent, and it is the first priority at present. Although Tian Dengwen's request for troops was inappropriate, whether it was a change of generals or a renegotiation of rescue, it was a big taboo. Therefore, he suggested that he immediately send a letter to Wang Jintang, the commander of Huguangdu, asking him to send troops to rescue.

The courtiers discussed for a long time, and they all thought that although the Huguang Capital Division was far away, it was located in a rich place, and the soldiers were strong and strong, which was more suitable than the Shenxi Capital Division.

However, they all seem to have selectively ignored the question of whether Wang Jintang would respond.
