Chapter 22: Coincidence
Zhuang Zhao has not seen the new palace maids since he was sealed, and he has to see them when he returns to the palace next time.
The other three palace maids were all selected from the palace, and they looked thoughtful and smart.
Zhuang Zhao asked them to report their names one by one, and only after listening to them did he say, "Since you are here, you have to change your name." Well, it's called Bailing, Bailuo, and Baihe. ”
The three of them thanked Zhuang Zhao for giving him his name, and then the little eunuchs.
However, Zhuang Zhao didn't need them closely, so he only instructed Xiao Yandao, "Teach them the rules well, don't be harsh." ”
It was noon after all this, Xiao Yan came back from lunch and learned about Zhang Biyu's grounding.
Zhuang Zhao sighed flatly, rewarded Xiao Yan, and began to eat.
As soon as Zhang Biyu made this move, it was basically a fee.
It doesn't matter if you provoke the crown princess, when the crown princess doesn't take you seriously, it doesn't matter how you provoke. It's like a childish who says he's going to kill you, and you don't take it seriously. But if the kid had a knife in his hand, it wouldn't be the same.
The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty.
But Zhang Biyu doesn't know how to converge yet.
After eating, Zhuang Zhao went to the courtyard to walk around twice to eat, and happened to meet Li Ying.
"Sister Zhuang is good" Li Ying wore a pink butterfly breast-length skirt, and walked over with a kind smile on her bright face.
Zhuang Zhao shook his head, "Why did you come here at this time?" ”
Li Yingdao, "If you come to meet Sister Zhang, you naturally have to meet Sister Zhuang first." These words put Zhuang Zhao in front of Zhang Biyu.
Zhuang Zhao showed a shallow smile, "Your sisters have a good relationship. ”
The speaker has the intention, but the listener seems to have no intention.
"Yes, how can I say that Sister Zhang also took care of me more before" Li Ying's cuffs moved, and she took out a little white chubby cat from it.
"Hey, what a cute kitten." Zhuang Zhao couldn't help but touch it, and Xue Tuan meowed against her palm, not afraid of life at all.
The little pink tongue licked Zhuang Zhao's hand, and his eyes showed a flattering meaning.
"This cat is really clever, and he knows how to offer it," Bai Cha couldn't help but laugh.
Zhuang Zhao rubbed its head, "Can you lend me a hug?" She looked at Li Ying, her eyes full of love.
Li Ying nodded, "Of course you can." ”
Zhuang Zhao carefully picked up Xuetuan, and Xuetuan looked at her innocently, her clear eyes blue and pure.
"If my sister likes it, I'll give it to you," Li Ying said as if unintentionally.
Zhuang Zhao was a little moved, but he still refused, "No, after all, it is your sister's pet, and a gentleman does not win people's love." ”
Li Ying covered her mouth and smiled, "What pets?" It's just a brute. ”
That's right.
Zhuang Zhao's brows furrowed, "Since Sister Li insists, then accept it." ”
Li Ying owed a debt and said, "Then I will leave first and don't disturb Sister Zhuang." ”
Zhuang Zhao rubbed Xuetuan's face and called Xiao Yan, "Let people who know cats and dogs see if there is anything wrong with this cat." ”
Come and see Zhang Biyu still with a cat?
Zhang Biyu doesn't talk about cats now, she has to be careful when she sees people.
Li Ying's trick was too bad.
Xiao Yan quickly came back with the snow ball, "Master, this cat's nails are too long, and the small ones have been cut." In addition, the cat's reaction to the red cloth is also very large, and nothing else. ”
Zhuang Zhao nodded unexpectedly, "Got it, you can reward them for me." ”
Li Ying wanted to borrow a cat to kill two birds with one stone, and he didn't know whether he felt stupid or that everyone else was stupid, so he played the rest of the tricks.
"Since the master knows that there is something wrong with this cat, why should he stay? If you really like it, just let them pick up another one. White Tea added a cup of tea to her.
The rain has passed through the azure Ru kiln porcelain, and the tentacles are warm and cool.
"How can there be a thousand days of anti-thief truth" She had a cold face, and her face that had always loved to smile was covered with a layer of frost, "Since Li Ying has already harmed me, I am not more polite to her." At the crown princess, you send someone to get some news. This is a ready-made substitute for the dead, and the crown princess will definitely be interested. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Ling coughed outside.
"Come in."
Bai Ling pushed the door in, blessed his body, and told him that Mu Guifei was pregnant, the emperor was overjoyed, and he rewarded the palaces.
"I heard that there was going to be an amnesty for the world, but I was brought back by Mrs. Xie. The emperor later crowned Mu Guifei as a virtuous concubine. Bai Ling's voice is good, like a clear spring, and it lives up to the word "Ling" given by Zhuang Zhao.
Not only Taifu Xie, but most of the ministers did not approve of the emperor taking this child too seriously.
It is not uncommon for the old man to favor the young son, but when the prince has been established, it is not appropriate for this old man to be the emperor to do this.
If it's a girl, it's fine, but if it's a boy, the prince's status will definitely be impacted......
There is no big problem with the emperor's body, let alone live for more than ten years.
When the time comes......
It's no wonder that Mrs. Xie will admonish on the spot.
The emperor couldn't resist the ministers, and it was estimated that he was also angry in his heart, otherwise why would he give Mu Guifei a virtuous word.
Of course, the biggest headache is still the queen.
Mama Zheng rubbed her temples and comforted her, "It's my own body, wouldn't it be as good as their wishes if they were angry." ”
"Heh, I didn't expect Mu to have this trick, I underestimated her." The queen coldly brushed away Mama Zheng's hand, and stalked to her chest in one breath, "The eagle was pecked in the eye by the eagle." How can I not be angry. The emperor also gave her the title of Xian, but nothing else, but Xian. ”
A virtuous wife and a beautiful concubine, is a virtuous concubine to do? I don't know, I thought it was because she was too unvirtuous as a queen, so it seemed that this virtuous concubine was virtuous.
However, no matter how angry the queen is, she still has more rewards for the virtuous concubine, even more than usual.
Otherwise, wouldn't he help the virtuous concubine prove that she was not virtuous?
"It's too coincidental for Concubine Xian to be pregnant." Just now, the crown princess came to beg the queen to deal with the Zhang family, and Mu Guifei revealed that she was pregnant, and Mama Zheng inevitably thought about it.
Queen Yirin, "You go to check what the Mu family has done during this time, she may not know that I will deal with the Zhang family, probably guessing that I will hesitate what the Zhang family's children will do, so the time is adjusted." "After getting along for more than ten years, the queen still has a certain understanding of the virtuous concubine.
In the palace, all coincidences are worth chasing.
Mama Zheng called all the palace people in Kunning Palace to the courtyard.
"Since May, anyone who has left his post without permission has stood up for me."
The palace people were silent, and only after half a sound did a palace maid kneel forward tremblingly, "The slave should die, the slave should die." ”
Mama Zheng said, "Okay, don't make this gesture." Wait on the sidelines. She swept her eyes back to the rest of the people and said coldly, "Is there anything else?" Now stand up and just light punishment. If I know from other people's mouths that someone else dares to hide it, I'll wait to go to the Raccoon Bureau. ”
The Huanyi Bureau has always been a place that everyone is afraid to avoid, and as soon as they heard this, two little eunuchs came out.
Mama Zheng's eyes were as sharp as knives and crossed the two of them, "The three of you stand together and wait for me." ”
"The next thing is to see someone sneaking around outside the Kunning Palace, or someone like you to inquire about the inside of the Kunning Palace, stand up."
This time it was a palace maid and a eunuch.
The five of them stood aside, all worried.
"Come with me, and the rest of us will stand here and not move, and I'll ask you when I get back." Mama Zheng led five people into the side hall and came out after a long time.
The five of them were all pale and their eyes were red, but they didn't dare to cry. didn't go back to the queue, just walked out.
This is expelled from Kunning Palace.
The rest of the people couldn't help but get a little nervous.
"After you go back, think about all the people you know about the two things I just mentioned, and Ming'er will tell me one by one. If it is found that there is indeed a fact, the person who reported it will be rewarded. If you hide it and don't report it, you will be punished with the same crime," Mama Zheng said sharply, "Do you understand?" ”
"Understood."
The rectification of Kunning Palace was just the beginning, and the frequent actions of the queen even alarmed the emperor.
"Searched all the places in the East Palace?"
The emperor touched his chin and heaved, "Interesting." ”
Yuan Zhong hunched his waist and took the medicine, tried it first, and poured half a bowl for the emperor after a while.
"Your Majesty, drink the medicine." But he didn't answer the emperor's words.
The emperor took the medicine and drank it all, wiped his mouth, "You old thing, I don't ask you, you won't say yes, right?" Yuan Zhong smiled, "Isn't this afraid that the slave will make the emperor unhappy." He pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that something was found from Prince Zhang's concubine, but the people sent by the queen mother are very strict, and I don't know what they found." ”
"Forget it, the queen is also angry in her heart this time." The emperor also regretted it a little, he didn't rush for a while.
Who is not happy to have a son when they are old? Immediately afterwards, he was poured cold water on the ministers, and he was also angry.
Yuan Zhong handed the tray to the apprentice and continued, "According to the slave, the queen's temperament has always been gentle. I don't think it's the Emperor Qi who is crowned the concubine, but this title......" Yuan Zhong patted his mouth lightly, "The slave has too much to say." ”
The emperor listened, "What you said also makes sense, the title of Xian Mu is not deserved," he thought about it, "Spread my message, the virtuous concubine is deferential, change it to be deferential." ”
Yuan Zhong sighed, the little apprentice Yuan Bo secretly admired his master's method on the side, look, a few words can make the emperor change his mind, who else has this ability?
When Concubine Gongshun received the edict, she couldn't help but stiffen with a smile on her face.
Yuan Bo lowered his eyebrows, but his posture was not low at all, "Your master, the slave brought the words, and this is the case." ”
The corners of Concubine Gongshun's mouth fell, "Picturesque, reward him." She stared at Yuan Bo tightly, "Remember to greet your master for me." If the emperor changed his title without Yuan Zhong's "credit", she would not believe it.
Yuan Bo didn't seem to hear the hatred of her gritted teeth, and accepted the reward with a smile.
The master is now standing on the prince's faction, and he has to go to the prince to show his skills.
Well, that's a big problem.
