The Queen Mother left Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun to speak in Kunning Palace for a long time.

After Zhu Zhongjun "recovered", he lived in Kunning Palace for four or five days, and the Queen Mother was already able to accept him like this.

She knew how Zhu Zhongjun became stupid.

At that time he followed the prince to ride a horse and fell off his horse.

But the Queen Mother didn't mention the events of the year in half a sentence.

She didn't ask Zhu Zhongjun if he remembered that year.

She just told Zhu Zhongjun that the emperor loved him very much, and the queen mother also loved him, so that he would be loyal to the emperor in the future and share his worries for the emperor.

"You only have such a brother as the emperor." The Queen Mother took Zhu Zhongjun's hand and said earnestly, "Waiting for the queen mother for a hundred years, it is your brothers who depend on each other." Remember the words of the Queen Mother. ”

She was worried that if Zhu Zhongjun was stupid back then, it was really the emperor who killed him, and the brothers turned against him, so she used words to suppress Zhongjun's desire for revenge.

The Queen Mother only has two sons, which is all her reliance and sustenance.

"Yes, don't worry, the queen mother." Zhu Zhongjun said.

The Queen Mother nodded.

Then, she took Gu Jinzhi's hand again and asked her to take good care of Zhu Zhongjun: "...... You don't have to come to the palace these days. The mourning family knew that you were taking care of Zhongjun, so they were relieved. ”

Gu Jin's way is.

The queen mother was afraid that she would stay with them for too long, and the emperor's displeasure added another layer.

She told a few more words, but in the end, she was still afraid that Gu Jinzhi would be unhappy, so she gave Gu Jinzhi a green jade ring on her hand.

That ring is worn by the Queen Mother all year round.

Gu Jinzhi was a little loose on it.

She knew this ring, and most of the women inside and outside had seen it. It is the queen mother's beloved thing. gave it to Gu Jinzhi, representing the Queen Mother's praise for Gu Jinzhi.

She happily took it.

"It's a little loose." The Queen Mother personally put it on for her, and said with a smile, "Keep it for later." This is when Zhong Jun was three years old, he memorized the 'Yongye' in the Analects in front of the emperor, a total of thirty chapters, he memorized fluently, and the emperor was overjoyed, saying that Zhong Jun was born and smart, which was the credit of the mourning family. I rewarded a lot of things. This jadeite ring. The mourning family likes it the most, so I have brought it for more than ten years......"

Gu Jinzhi hurriedly excused himself.

"A gentleman does not win the love of others." Gu Jinzhi said with a smile, "The Queen Mother's good intentions, Xiao Qixin has received it." This ring has a special meaning. Xiao Qi didn't dare to accept it. ”

The Queen Mother forced it into her hand. "It's unusual. I rewarded Xiao Qi. If it's an ordinary thing, how can it be worthy of Xiao Qi? ”

This is a high praise for Gu Jinzhi's contribution this time.

Gu Jinzhi thanked him again.

Then, she and Zhu Zhongjun said goodbye from the palace.

Aunt Cheng personally sent them both.

sent Gu Jinzhi and Gu Jinzhi away. Aunt Cheng still returned to Kunning Palace.

On the way, she met Concubine Zhang Shu, who came to ask for peace.

The Queen Mother valued Concubine Zhang very much before, and wanted to train her to balance Concubine Tan, but Aunt Cheng knew it. But later, Concubine Zhang Shufei seemed to feel that the Queen Mother was too quiet and inactive, although the emperor was filial, the Queen Mother did not act, and the Queen Mother's words were useless, so she no longer relied on the Queen Mother, but had an affair with Tan Guifei Wolf Bèi.

She wants to fight on her own.

In the past few years, she has acted more and more dissatisfied.

Aunt Cheng is the queen mother's confidant.

Her attitude towards everyone is to imply the Queen Mother.

People in the palace like to speculate about the queen mother's intentions, since the last time I talked to the emperor about the queen's candidate, I know that the emperor no longer likes Concubine Zhang Shu, and the queen mother doesn't mind letting people know that she is not very satisfied with Concubine Zhang Shu.

Therefore, seeing Concubine Zhang Shu, Aunt Cheng was a little cold for the first time.

“…… The weather is getting hotter, I don't know if the Queen Mother is well? Concubine Zhang asked Aunt Cheng with a smile.

Aunt Cheng is usually very alienated from these concubines, and she is alone with anyone she gets along with and does not get involved in right and wrong, so the change in her attitude is just that she understands it in her own heart, and it is not obvious on the surface.

Zhang Shufei was a little vigilant in her heart, thought about it, but didn't care too much, thinking that she was too careful.

Aunt Cheng was lukewarm: "Niangniang's phoenix body is peaceful, and Concubine Shu is bothered." ”

Concubine Zhang Shu was still smiling, and greeted her cordially: "That's good, the concubine is also at ease." ”

After asking the Queen Mother, she asked the eldest princess again.

The eldest princess and the second princess were taken by the Queen Mother a few years ago to raise them, and they are still in the side hall of Kunning Palace.

They got along for a long time, and the Queen Mother loved those two granddaughters very much. The older they get, the more sensible the two princesses become, and the more reluctant the Queen Mother is to move them back to their respective palaces.

Concubine Zhang Shufei is the biological mother of the eldest princess.

"Celestia too." Aunt Cheng said.

The two walked slowly towards Kunning Palace, Aunt Cheng didn't take the initiative to say anything, Concubine Zhang Shufei had nothing to say, and Aunt Cheng was close.

“…… Which lady did Fang send out of the palace, Mrs. Ning? Zhang Shufei asked again.

Aunt Cheng didn't want to answer this question, so she said: "The Queen Mother is still waiting for the slave maid to run an errand, Niangniang, the slave maid is one step ahead." ”

He walked back to Kunning Palace quickly.

Concubine Zhang Shufei was stunned.

She was finally sure that Aunt Cheng was a little cold, not her delusion.

Her steps floated.

Zhang Shufei took a step to arrive.

The Queen Mother is always kind and kind on the surface. Her attitude towards each concubine is the same, so the people in the palace can't tell who she likes and who she doesn't like from her attitude.

Like Fang Cai, Aunt Cheng's indifference to Concubine Zhang Shufei, Concubine Zhang knew that the Queen Mother might not like her.

She was a little worried in her heart, but she still smiled and greeted the Queen Mother.

After talking for a long time, Concubine Zhang Shufei said that she was going to the side hall to see the eldest princess: "I heard that the eldest princess has started studying, and the concubine hasn't come to see her for a long time." ”

The Queen Mother smiled and said to Aunt Cheng: "Go and bring the eldest princess over......"

She didn't let Concubine Zhang Shu go to see the eldest princess alone.

This is a very bad signal, which makes Zhang Shufei feel alarmed.

She was a little surprised.

This is the first time the Queen Mother has done this to her, and so has Aunt Cheng.

Before the earth dragon turned over, the queen mother and the emperor did not communicate with each other, who was the queen.

Before the Queen Mother mentioned Concubine Zhang Shu. The emperor also agreed. Later, what Concubine Zhang Shufei did did not have the bearing of a mother in the world at all, which disappointed the Queen Mother.

Although disappointed and did not get an accurate letter, the Queen Mother did not want to treat Concubine Zhang Shu lightly and make people panic.

Now that she has told the emperor about choosing another position, she doesn't have so many scruples.

Today's attitude towards Concubine Zhang Shu will spread throughout the Forbidden Palace tomorrow.

The Queen Mother doesn't matter.

Looking at Concubine Zhang Shu's slightly changed face, the Queen Mother was still kind.

Aunt Cheng personally went to bring the eldest princess over.

The third day of Celestia's birth. There is its own palace. The ones who fed her and took care of her were all grandmothers in the palace.

When she was three years old, she was taken to Kunning Palace by the Queen Mother. Her grandmother was her dearest person.

Now she is almost six years old.

Concubine Zhang Shufei can't see the eldest princess a few times a year.

This biological mother is no different from the other concubines in the palace for the eldest princess. She didn't even like Concubine Zhang's coquettish appearance very much.

She called out to the mother. He held Aunt Cheng's hand tightly. Lean against Aunt Cheng. With a bit of caution and politeness.

Maybe she has been like this since she was a child, and Concubine Zhang Shufei didn't realize that the child was not close to her.

She is full of the attitude of the Queen Mother at the moment.

She smiled and asked Celestia about her recent homework.

Princess Celestia only started reading and literacy this year. It didn't take two months to start when he encountered the earth dragon and turned over.

Her homework also stopped.

“…… Just draw red. She whispered, "Mother Lao is worried." ”

Zhang Shufei asked her again if she was in good health.

The child is not used to doing homely things, and the eldest princess just answered indirectly.

Zhang Shufei's words couldn't be continued.

She had no choice but to get up and take her leave.

This time, she just had a sudden idea, and she wanted to walk around in front of the Queen Mother by looking at the eldest princess, and she didn't have any special purpose.

It turned out to be a big surprise to her.

On the way back to her palace, Concubine Zhang Shu walked very slowly.

She's a very smart person.

The attitude of the Queen Mother and the affection that Aunt Cheng inadvertently revealed still surprised her. She didn't know what she had done to make the Queen Mother so disgusted.

Over the years, she has been calculating step by step.

She wanted not to offend Concubine Tan, in exchange for her trust, but also not to offend the Queen Mother.

If it is exquisite, it is none other than her Zhang family in this palace.

Even Tan Guifei is not as good as her.

Concubine Tan Guifei is better off than her, but her mother's family is powerful, her sister is the first queen, and the eldest prince is her nephew.

Without these, where would Tan Guifei be Zhang Shufei's opponent?

Back in the palace, Concubine Zhang Shu sat alone for a long time.

She called Li Ping, the eunuch in her palace, and asked him: "Last time, the fourth lady of the Ning family, didn't she send some of her homemade rouge to the palace?" You go to the treasury to look for something, find an object that fits, and the palace will give Miss Ning Death a gift. ”

The fourth lady of the Ning family refers to the queen mother's niece Ning Yuan.

She has already married the eighth young master of the Tan family and will marry after the year.

Since she got engaged, Ning Cheng has tried to get close to Tan Guifei.

At the same time, she showed favor to Concubine Zhang Shu.

Zhang Shufei didn't like Ning Ming's ambiguous attitude at both ends, so last time Ning Cheng gave Tan Guifei her homemade rouge, and also sent it to the Queen Mother and Zhang Shufei, Zhang Shufei just lightly asked the eunuch to say thank you and gave a pair of gold bracelets as a gift.

Did you offend the Ning family?

But Concubine Zhang Shu had obviously heard that the Queen Mother didn't like the Ning family to be close to the palace.

After Ning Cheng gave a gift, she was severely reprimanded by the Queen Mother, and then she didn't dare. Concubine Zhang Shu knew that she was doing well, why did she offend the Queen Mother now?

She wanted to see if there were any signs from Ning Cheng.

"Niangniang, didn't you give a gift last time?" Li Ping said in a low voice, "If you send things again, Miss Ning Si may not like it." The slave maid heard that the fourth lady of the Ning family asked the eldest father of the queen mother about Miss Gu last time. The slave maid heard again that the fourth miss of the Ning family and the seventh miss of the Gu family were at odds. Today, it is estimated that Miss Seven has entered the palace again. What is she going to do, the fourth lady of the Ning family is probably the most concerned......"

Zhang Shufei's eyes lit up slightly.

"What is the seventh lady of the Gu family doing when she enters the palace now?" Zhang Shufei said, "You go and inquire." ”

Li Pingdao is.

Waiting for Li Ping to go out to inquire about things, Concubine Zhang Shufei suddenly thought: Is the attitude of the Queen Mother and Aunt Cheng aimed at her Zhang, or was she caught up by the Zhang family because she was angry with Miss Gu?

Last time, Miss Gu Jiaqi and the emperor were alone in Qianqing Palace for half an hour, but they couldn't find out what they did, and even Tan Guifei couldn't find out, which became the biggest secret in the palace.

Concubine Zhang Shufei suddenly woke up.

She still wanted to meet Ning Cheng.
