Queen Gu's face was indifferent, but there was a hint of joy in her eyes.

Ye Qinglan saw it in her eyes and couldn't help but smile secretly.

Even in front of the Sun family, Empress Gu didn't say anything about the quarrel with the emperor that day. She always thought that she had hidden this secret very well, but she didn't know that Ye Qinglan already knew her secret well. Unexpectedly, Ye Qinglan deliberately angered Concubine Zheng and made such a big move, just to create such an opportunity for her.

Empress Gu is a smart person and will definitely take advantage of this opportunity......

The next day, the emperor really came to Fengyi Palace.

It was the first time that Ye Qinglan had a glimpse of the sky, and after honestly kowtowing and making a big salute, she stood aside and quietly raised her eyes to look at this son of heaven.

The emperor is also in his forties this year, with small but very bright eyes and a short beard. In terms of appearance alone, it is far inferior to Gu Hong, even compared to Ye Chengli. But there is a majesty and bearing that others can hardly reach. The appearance of the crown prince Zhao Qi is mostly inherited from Queen Gu, but it is not very similar to the emperor. is the third prince, and the charm in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows is like enough for the emperor.

No wonder the emperor has always favored the three princes. As a father, who doesn't like a son who is more like himself?

Queen Gu's illness has been cured by seventy or eighty percent, and her complexion is much better than before. But in the end, he was seriously ill, and the reduction of his cheeks was obvious, and he deliberately made a cautious gesture, which made the emperor feel a little pity in his heart. Thinking that he hadn't come to visit for two months in a row, his tone couldn't help but soften: "Is the queen feeling better?" ”

Empress Gu's face was moved by gratitude: "Thank you for the emperor's care, the concubine has been in good health recently." There was a pause. He sighed again: "These days are quiet and recuperating, and the concubines often reflect on themselves. In the past, words and deeds were not in moderation, and virtue was lacking. Anxiety becomes a disease. Now that her body has finally improved, the concubine thinks that from today onwards, she will eat fasting and chant Buddha and live quietly. As for these cumbersome affairs in the palace, Concubine Zheng took care of them very well, and she didn't need to worry about the concubines. ”

The words are subtle and vague, and the translation is straightforward, in fact, I already know that I am wrong, and I will stay in Fengyi Hall honestly in the future. Don't compete with Concubine Zheng.

Ye Qinglan secretly admired in her heart, she deserved to have been immersed in the palace for many years, and Queen Gu's hand of retreating was really wonderful. first admitted his mistake in a low voice, and then lowered his posture. In this way, the anger in the emperor's heart will naturally disappear.

In the past, it was Empress Gu who was sick and could not preside over palace affairs, so she asked Concubine Zheng Guifei to act as her agent. Now that Empress Gu's body is about to recover, it is obviously very inappropriate to let Concubine Zheng Guifei assist in the Sixth Palace. Even if the emperor loves Concubine Zheng again, he will not throw aside the dignity of his original wife. So. When Queen Gu said these words, she was pretending to be pitiful and sympathetic.

The emperor's face softened a little, and he smiled faintly: "After the queen is the sixth palace, it is a matter of course to be in charge of the six palaces. You were sick the other day. needs to recuperate with peace of mind, so I asked the concubine to help take care of the palace affairs. When you're completely well, it's better to take over all this trivial matter as soon as possible. ”

Empress Gu was stunned. Then his eyes flashed with shame, emotion, joy and other complicated feelings, and he opened his mouth tremblingly: "The concubine still thinks ...... The emperor treats his concubines so lovingly. The concubine is really overjoyed......" said, her eyes already glistening.

The emperor saw Empress Gu like this. was also a little moved, and the remaining unhappiness in my heart disappeared. A few words of gentle and cordial reassurance.

Ye Qinglan looked at Queen Gu's singing performance, and she really admired it in her heart. So far, among the women she has seen, the one with the highest acting skills is Queen Gu. Of course, Shen Qiuyu is also a master of acting, but in the end, there is still a little less heat. Sometimes the details still reveal the real feelings. Queen Gu is more sophisticated and sophisticated, and this attitude is simply natural and flawless......

With the dissolution of the knot between the emperor and Queen Gu, the atmosphere in the Fengyi Hall was also much more relaxed and harmonious.

The emperor glanced at Ye Qinglan seemingly casually, and asked with a smile: "This is Gu Shilang's newly married daughter-in-law Ye!" I heard that Ye is shrewd and eloquent, and when I saw it today, I felt that it was a bit exaggerated. ”

The so-called shrewd and eloquent temperament are obviously pointed. It seems that someone has complained in the emperor's ear. I just don't know if the person who sued is Zheng Guifei or Cao Jieyu Huang Beauty......

Empress Gu was mentally prepared, and said with a smile: "The concubine has been in a depressed mood these days, but thanks to the Ye family's companionship every day, her condition has improved." ”

The emperor seemed to be interested, and raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Is it true? ”

Regardless of the queen's eyes, Ye Qinglan also took two steps forward and replied respectfully: "The queen has praised her, and what the Ye family has done is limited." It was because the queen mother thought of the emperor and His Royal Highness the prince in her heart, and she didn't want to worry everyone about her illness, so she got better so quickly. Ye didn't dare to take credit! ”

Sure enough, he is a good man......

The emperor's eyes flashed, and he glanced at Ye Qinglan. Although there is a difference between men and women, he is the son of heaven and an elder, but there is no need to avoid suspicion, so he looks at the past so openly. The pretty face that is happy and smiling is in the eye, and the smile on the lips is even more pleasant.

The emperor is also a man, so he naturally can't get angry with such a delicate and moving young woman. remembered that Cao Jieyu wiped her tears and complained about her grievances yesterday, which also made him a little curious about this Ye Qinglan.

Everyone in the palace knows that Cao Jieyu is a newly favored concubine, and Concubine Zheng Guifei is even more favored in the Sixth Palace, and it is too late for everyone to please her. This Ye Qinglan is not small, and she dares to blatantly embarrass Zheng Guifei, Cao Jieyu and others......

Ye Qinglan suddenly knelt down: "If you have the courage to say something, I hope that the emperor will approve it." ”

This sudden appearance made Queen Gu also stunned. Not to mention the emperor, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "If you have anything to say, you might as well say it and listen to it." But he didn't open his mouth to let Ye Qinglan get up.

Ye Qinglan knelt down honestly and said: "Emperor Qiqi, yesterday I met the noble concubine Niangniang, as well as Cao Niangniang, Huang Niangniang and others in the imperial garden. Ye's mouth was quick for a while, and somehow annoyed a few mothers. Since I came back yesterday, I have been confused and uneasy. I hope the emperor will forgive the sins! ”

The emperor's expression was indifferent, he couldn't see his joy or anger, and his deep gaze fell on Ye Qinglan's body fixedly: "According to what you say, did you unintentionally collide yesterday, didn't you do it intentionally?" ”

Ye Qinglan boldly raised her eyes and glanced at it, her eyes were clear and frank: "The Ye family is young and ignorant, and I don't know which sentence angered Niangniang." ”

Queen Gu is a master of acting, yes, Ye Qinglan is not inferior at all. This justified confession did not show the slightest weakness, and even the emperor began to shake when he looked at it.

The emperor's eyes flashed, and he said lightly: "The two sentences of wives and concubines fighting and restless houses are always what you say!" ”

Empress Gu took a breath. No wonder even Zheng Guifei, who is quite deep in the city, was so angry that her face changed on the spot, and such words fell on Zheng Guifei's ears, which was simply heartbreaking......

Ye Qinglan admitted calmly: "Yes, I did say it." Before the emperor's eyes darkened, he defended himself with grievances: "However, when he said these words at that time, the Ye family never thought of alluding to anything with these words. It was Cao Niangniang and Huang Niangniang who first mentioned the fact that the Ye family was fortunate to marry into the Dingguo Mansion, and the Ye family casually talked about the promise that her husband had made in public on the day of marriage. ”

As if recalling the humiliating scene in the Imperial Garden yesterday, Ye Qinglan's eyes were also red, and her voice was a little choked: "The Ye family knows that his identity is low, and he is not worthy of the family of the Dingguo Mansion. It's just that now that the Ye family has married into her husband's family, she naturally wants to maintain dignity for her husband's family. That's why in a hurry, I said indecent things. Unexpectedly, he angered the concubine Niangniang and Cao Niangniang and Huang Niangniang, and all the mistakes were Ye's fault. This qiē queen doesn't know about it, and she still hopes that the emperor will know it! ”

After speaking, he couldn't control it anymore, and tears slowly slipped from the corners of his eyes.

This time, it was Queen Gu's turn to say yes again and again in her heart. This Ye Qinglan is really smart! Pointing to Sang scolding Huai and humiliating the palace concubine, if this big hat is pressed down, even if Queen Gu tries to protect it, Ye Qinglan will not want to get away with it. But now, Ye Qinglan cleverly positioned this battle of words as a momentary gaffe. What's even better is that he also emphasized consciously or unintentionally that he was humiliated first, so he would fight back in a moment of anger, which is completely different in nature.

What's more, although Ye Qinglan is young, after all, she is the nephew and daughter-in-law of Queen Gu, and she is also the granddaughter-in-law of the Dingguo Mansion. To be humiliated is to embarrass Queen Gu to the Princess's Mansion, what's wrong with fighting back?

Clever tongue like a spring, nothing more than that!

The emperor was really dumbfounded, and looked at Ye Qinglan, who was kneeling there crying with rain, and glanced at the poor Ye Qinglan, who was wronged, and his tone was a lot warmer: "I just asked casually, and I didn't mean to question." Alright, you get up first! ”

Ye Qinglan thanked her, and after getting up, she wiped her tears with a handkerchief. But the aggrieved look in the red eyes made people feel pity.

Queen Gu didn't say anything, but at this time, she suddenly sighed, and blamed herself: "The concubine has been in a mess these days, and she doesn't know anything about the outside world. The Ye family collided with Zheng Guifei and Cao Jieyu Huang Meiren in the imperial garden, both of whom were concubines who were not strictly taught. If the emperor blames him, please punish the concubines......"

As he spoke, he was about to get up with a look of shame.

The emperor pressed Queen Gu's hand: "Your body hasn't healed yet, sit back in peace." I'm not a fool who listens and believes, and I know very well which is right and which is not. (To be continued......)
