Chapter 203: Stalemate
A few days later, the queen mother really went to the palace of King Shen, and entered the palace in the morning and rushed back to the palace when the palace gate was about to fall in the afternoon, and it is not clear what she said.
It's just that the day after that day, the Murong family was taken back to the mansion by the old lady Murong on the grounds of recuperation, and on the day of leaving, all the people in the Murong Mansion were waiting around, and King Shen was never seen.
People outside still thought that Princess Murong had not yet recovered that time, because the palace also approved Murong Old Lady's request in the name of this, but Old Lady Murong's abrupt behavior still made the palace blow up.
Although Emperor Qi Wen disdained to ask about the private matter between his son and daughter-in-law, he was still a little angry when this matter was obviously about to come to the court.
And the queen went to King Shen's Mansion that day in addition to knowing Murong Clan's intentions, but she couldn't ask anything again, King Shen didn't mention it with a cold face, and Murong Clan was also cold and unwilling to say more, but it made her, the queen, vaguely aware of it in her heart.
Back in the palace, the queen immediately sent a question from Concubine De, thinking that in the past month or so, Murong had been to her palace a few times, and she must have been able to ask something.
As a result, Concubine De was also at a loss when she learned the news: "Queen Mother, the concubine really doesn't know about this matter, the concubine just knows that the Murong family may have had a quarrel with Shen'er, and the Murong family came alone both times, and Shen'er never appeared, and this thing will never happen on weekdays, so the last time the Murong family came, the concubine cared a few words, and she just smiled coldly and didn't say anything." ”
The queen sighed: "It seems that this matter is afraid of being strict, a few days ago, the emperor announced that the palace was visiting, saying that the old lady Murong personally asked the emperor for grace and wanted to take the Murong family home to recuperate. The palace didn't say anything, but the emperor was even more worried, so he had to let the palace go out of the palace to have a look, but he didn't ask anything after staying in the palace of King Shen for a day. Thinking about my sister, you might have some clues. ”
Concubine De said: "Sister, you don't know that some time ago, the concubine had a very unpleasant quarrel with Shen'er and Murong because of the child's affairs, and this time Murong hurt her body because of the frightened horse, and the concubine didn't want to say anything." The Murong clan is here, and the concubine is just saying some face-saving words, but my sister said this, it seems that there is indeed something wrong between Shen'er and the Murong clan, but maybe it's not a bad thing. ”
The queen glanced at Concubine De and said, "Concubine De, why do you say that?" ”
Concubine De raised her eyebrows and said: "Queen Mother, to tell the truth, if Shen'er didn't really like the Murong family, if she didn't marry her, the concubine, I wouldn't agree with the Murong family's girl, although she was a girl trained by the old lady Murong herself." It is true that few people can compare with her talent and appearance, but the concubine always feels that she has a cold air on her, she is not a person who can live at home with peace of mind, and she is not a choice that can make Shen'er stable and happy, but Shen'er was lost by the Murong family, and it is useless for the concubine to oppose it. ”
The queen said: "Yes, when you say this, this palace also thinks that this is the reason, but at that time, King Shen's child was forced to die, and this palace can't be ruthless, but over the years, Shen'er and Murong have always been in harmony." It's also happy, even if it's because the child is something, he didn't make such a fuss, why is it so stiff this time, even the old lady Murong, who has always been low-key, was shocked. Ay?? I'm afraid that the emperor is not feeling well. ”
Concubine De said worriedly: "What, the emperor punished Shen'er?" ”
The queen shook her head and said: "Not really, but Sister Concubine De, think about it, seven or eight years ago, King Shen had made a fuss all over the court in order to marry Murong as his wife, and the emperor was also a little displeased." This time it will make trouble again, and the emperor will not go to his heart, King Shen is already an idle prince, and he has relied on the emperor's blessing, and if he goes on like this, the palace is really afraid that he will lose his sacred heart! ”
Concubine De sighed: "What the queen sister said is, but the concubine can only be frightened, but there is no way, this child is stubborn, he won't say anything, although the concubine has raised him for all these years, and he is really distressed when he is his own flesh and blood, but this child is like something separated from the concubine, although he is very filial, but many things will not be mentioned to my mother, hey, it is not biological, no matter how hard it is, there is a distance." ”
The queen was stunned for a moment and said: "Concubine De, this child has been raised by your side since birth, this is really no different from your own birth, don't think about it, your intentions to King Shen over the years, this palace and the emperor are in the eyes, so this time this palace specially came to ask you what you mean." ”
Concubine De said frustratedly: "What can the concubine mean, in the final analysis, the concubine is not insistent enough, if she resolutely opposed this marriage at the beginning, I am afraid that the concubine will even hug her grandson, let alone these things." ”
The queen persuaded: "Sister Concubine De, this has happened, there is nothing to regret at the beginning, now hurry up and think of a way." ”
Concubine De said angrily: "Queen Mother, Old Lady Murong insists on doing this, what can the concubine do, as long as the Murong family goes back, it is equivalent to slapping Shen'er and the emperor in the face, such a daughter-in-law and concubine really can't afford it." ”
The queen looked disapproving: "Concubine De, what are you doing, do you want to ????"
Concubine De sneered: "Sister Queen, as long as his Murong family dares to do this, then the concubine can only follow their wishes, it's a big deal to find a more suitable family for Shen'er, I'm afraid they won't succeed!" ”
The queen persuaded: "Good sister, as the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than to break a marriage, not to mention that this matter has not been clarified, and it will not reach the point of no return, you don't want to cut off the back road." ”
Concubine De said disdainfully: "Queen Mother, this is the concubine who has also cut off her own back road, this is clearly the old lady Murong forced her, it was a mistake to marry her at the beginning, now there is a chance, maybe it's not a bad thing, it's really not good, the palace will help Shen'er marry a side concubine first, she Murong is gone, how can she let Shen'er guard herself like a jade for her as a woman, don't even think about it, I will never allow it." ”
The queen said worriedly: "Sister Concubine De! ”
Concubine De got up and said: "Sister Queen, don't persuade the concubines, as long as they do it in the Murong Mansion, the concubines will immediately help Shen'er marry the side concubine, but I want to see how hard her Murong clan can be, hum!" ”
The queen hurriedly said: "Sister Concubine De, you have to think twice about this matter, you can't hurt King Shen." ”
Concubine De said with a smile: "Sister Queen, don't worry, the concubine will naturally wait for the Murong Mansion to express her position, thank you for the queen's concern, there are still things in the concubine's palace that have not been dealt with, so I won't bother the queen to come, and the concubine will leave first." ”
After that, Concubine De ignored the queen's worries and objections, and threw up her sleeves and went back to the palace, but the queen was even more worried.
Mama Qi, who was waiting on the side, sighed: "Queen Mother, Concubine De has such a temper, your face is a little bad, are you okay?" ”
The queen glanced at Mama Qi and said: "Mama, if it is really as Concubine De said, I am afraid that this matter will not end well, the old lady Murong has always been highly respected, if it is really tough, let alone Concubine De, even the palace does not have much chance of winning, not to mention that it will affect King Shen." ”
Mama Qi said: "That's the queen, you are kind-hearted, and you think about these princes everywhere, but after all, this matter is not something that you can solve with the queen's mother, it depends on time and people's hearts." ”
The queen sighed: "Yes, these children, it's really a headache for the palace, especially King Shen and Murong Clan, since they got married, they haven't been reassuring, and they have finally stumbled until now, and they have made such a scene, hey, if it is really Murong Clan who has left the house, I am afraid that Concubine De and the emperor will not die well, hey, a headache????
Mama Qi pressed her head for the queen and said, "Queen Mother, this is all a matter for the children, why don't you let the children coordinate with each other, maybe it can be resolved." ”
The queen closed her eyes and said: "This palace has also thought about it, but the Murong family has always been high, and the relationship with several other princesses is also light, which makes anyone feel embarrassed, and King Shen is the same, this matter is really a little tricky." ”
Mama Qi then asked: "Master, what does the emperor mean, as long as we don't go against the emperor's will." ”
The queen sighed: "The emperor naturally doesn't want to see it, but he handed over this matter to the palace to deal with it with full authority, and the palace is not good to always trouble the emperor." ”
Mama Qi nodded and said, "Queen Mother, you are indeed embarrassed." ”
The queen frowned and sighed: "Hey, I hope that the worst will happen, at least there is room to make up for it???"
But the queen was worried for a day, and the old lady Murong slapped her face directly, and took the Murong family back to the house directly, although the emperor was a little angry, but it was also hindered by the face of the old lady Murong, so he didn't have much attack, but the pimple in his heart couldn't be dissolved.
Murong and Qi Shen quarreled very strictly, but Xibao didn't know anything here, to be precise, she hadn't eaten well for almost a month, except for her slightly convex belly, even Xibao's round little face was so thin that only the tip of her jaw remained.
The people in it are going crazy, Zhao Zongzhen even asked for leave to stay with Xibao all the time, Qi You was also empty and hurried to Xibao's side to accompany him, most of the affairs of the military department were handed over to Qi Zhe to deal with, and he rushed back to deal with it when it was very urgent, and the rest of the time he kept holding Xibao and coaxing, tricking her to eat one or two more bites.
Qi Zhe himself has always wanted to see Xibao, but seeing that Qi You was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground, he had to try his best to help Qi You share official duties, so that Qi You's pressure could be slightly lighter, and Qi You could stay by Xibao's side more.
On this day, it was not easy to catch up with Xiu Mu, and there were not many things in the military department, so Qi Zhe had free time to visit Xibao.
Qi Zhe hadn't seen Xibao for more than two months, although he knew that she had a strong reaction, but it was still a little shocking to see it with his own eyes, Xibao looked thinner than before he was pregnant, and he even felt stricter than when he came back.
But fortunately, after a month of tossing, Xibao's morning sickness has improved a lot, but this appetite has not been good, only Qi You can lie when he is there, coaxing him to eat something, and at other times, Xibao can almost not eat anything, and even her favorite dim sum has lost interest????
