In the court, for the title of virtuous concubine, he is fighting with the emperor. The person concerned, Xu Xun, didn't know at all - anyway, it was always a good thing to enter Beijing to be entitled, and this time she didn't have to go with anyone, besides, everyone now knows her status in the emperor's heart: it's not stupid, she traveled alone a few times, and she brought Concubine Xian Niangniang to serve by her side, and now she has just ascended the throne, so she has given Concubine Xian Niangniang such a haode title......

According to the rules set by Taizu, there is no difference in grades among the concubines in the harem, except for the concubines who are higher than the concubines, the rest of the Xian, Shu, Zhuang, Jing, Hui, Shun, Kang, and Ning are nothing more than to show the title of the boudoir Yongsu. But people's hearts are easy to compare, no matter how Xian says it, he also accounts for the first, plus it is one of the traditional titles of the four concubines, Concubine Xian feels much more valuable than Concubine Hui.

Besides, Xu Xun's favor has always been very obvious, and now that he is on board the ship, are all the people on the ship serving carefully? All the way to the Tianzi Wharf docked, local specialties to enjoy, Xu Xun just eat, sleep, sleep, eat, love to enjoy the scenery, love to read books, compared to the emperor's double trip, this person's trip is not much more refreshing?

From Guazhou up, until he walked to the vicinity of Zaozhuang, Xu Xuncai vaguely received the news and knew that Jingli was fighting for her affairs. Of course, her mood was affected a little, and after knowing the reason, she couldn't even eat a little bit. When a few grandmothers heard about it, they were secretly anxious, but they couldn't say anything.

wanted to comfort Xu Xun in words, but Xu Xun saw it clearly than them, "There must be an explanation for the Nanjing incident, and the eldest brother may still be holding back an evil fire in his heart." ”

The emperor is seriously ill, and some people here dare to force the prince of the palace, but they still come to the palace when the prince's seal is in his hand, he keeps issuing orders, and the chamberlains continue to do things as if nothing happened. You say that this is forcing the palace, and you have to instigate the respected Lord Hu to come forward...... Although Master Hu was really anxious and willing to make this gun, but those people behind it, who knows what they thought in their hearts? The prince at that time, the current emperor, was also taboo in his heart, Xu Xun and the attendants did not use the name of the prince to deceive, didn't they all fool the past, saying that they were recuperating with peace of mind. I didn't even let me take care of my illness, and I wanted to bang on the door and break in to see someone, what was the idea?

Also because the prince has a taboo in his heart, the matter of Nanjing, Lord Hu is reasonable and unreasonable, although he is also bent on reporting to the East Palace, wanting to confirm his safety, but the means are too radical, there was a great hope of returning to Beijing, but now it seems that he can only serve in Nanjing. I specially want to assign such a title of virtuous concubine to Xu Xun - if it is said in the order casually arranged by Taizu at that time, Xu Xun is several times ahead of He Xianxian, just to show it to others, so that they can know the emperor's attitude on this matter.

But the ministers are also unhappy: this matter, even if you talk to a civil official, for example, Lord Hu, he is a guest of the prince, and he is a hardcore princeling-this princeling, it is still your father! At that time, during the reign of Emperor Wen, Lord Hu was clearly inclined to the East Palace, so why can't he be trusted? Invite him in and tell the truth, with his help to say a few words, it won't be to the extent of slamming the door and forcing the palace. If you don't see anyone, what's the use of having a seal? In case the East Palace fails, and the internal and external traffic is controlled by a woman and the attendant, what a mistake......

None of the three parties can say that there is anything wrong, the prince did not speak, Xu Xun cannot communicate with the civil officials at will to cover up the matter, the civil officials are generally dedicated to the stability of the country, only a few people are the eyes and ears of the King of Han, as for the prince, there is indeed no minister who can be trusted in Nanjing, no matter how loyal Lord Hu is, he is also to his father, and he is not familiar with him, at such a sensitive moment, can he no longer be careful?

It is also because none of the three parties is at fault that this matter is on the bar, and now the ministers are not fighting with the emperor, but they are all picking on Xu Xun, saying that she is doing something wrong in Nanjing.

After hearing about it, several grandmothers couldn't eat, and now seeing Xu Xun so calm, the big stone in his heart was put down a little bit, and they both felt flustered and short-breathed, and Mama Sun smiled strongly. "As soon as Niangniang said this, my heart was much more relaxed, these people are just strange, Niangniang is in Nanjing, is it not good enough, and she still has to pick thorns?"

"Zuo is just using me as a reason, whether it is to block this number or not to allow this number to be blocked, what he is saying is something else." Xu Xun was faintly lazy, and the original joy was gone, she pouted, "Anyway, it's boring." ”

A few grandmothers, you look at me, I look at you, it's not easy to say anything, Grandma Sun smiled and said, "What do you say, Niangniang, after all, you are also a concubine......

Xu Xun also smiled, "Yes, it's okay, maybe I can't be a concubine, and now I don't have any news alone...... Did you hear that? Is there a newcomer in the harem? ”

"I got a few, and I got low-level titles, and I don't know the details outside." Mama Zhao stepped forward and pinched Xu Xun's shoulder, "Niangniang doesn't have to care about this, where can others compare to your relationship with Bixia?" That's a lot of tribulation! ”

Mama Qian said more bluntly, "Niangniang is now a concubine, and she will have a lifelong dependence, even if Bixia empathizes and doesn't fall in love, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother will not treat you badly." ”

This is true, Xu Xun nodded, "Mammas, you can rest assured, I won't do anything stupid to be jealous." I still keep in mind the way we discussed. ”

That night, Xu Xun put forward this proposition, which almost stumped several grandmothers - they wanted to compete for favor and have children, they could understand and help a little. But if they want to escape from the burial, this requirement is a bit beyond their ability.

It was still Mama Qian who had the most ideas, leading the two Mammas, and analyzing with Xu Xun in detail, everyone said it very thoroughly, and eliminated it one by one - it is very simple to not want to die, just give birth to a son before everyone, as long as you can raise it safely, and the queen has no out, the biological mother of the emperor will definitely not be buried.

But there are also problems with this road, first Xu Xun doesn't know if the queen will have children, they are still young now, and the emperor definitely wants an eldest son. Second, she can't guarantee that she will get a man in one fell swoop, and third, she can't guarantee that this child can be raised safely. Unless she was lucky enough to give birth to four or five boys in a row, it would not be surprising that a baby dies halfway at today's infant mortality rate.

Therefore, although this path exists theoretically, the probability of going through it is quite low.

Of course, there is a more difficult way, for example, after you give birth to a boy, you will kill everyone else's boy or something. However, this road only exists in theory, if the royal heir can be killed casually, Emperor Wen will engage in the Yulu Rebellion in vain. In the case of such a strict palace ban, even the mother can't casually put her hand into the prince's office, not the mother, let alone delusional. Just wanted to poison him, and there were at least a dozen palace people in front of the prince who were willing to give him a disaster.

Other despicable methods such as engaging in palace fighting, framing, and planting are not to be discussed, Xu Xun doesn't want to be martyred, not to drag everyone to die together, and killing her peers is not helpful to the goal of not being martyred.

Zuihou summed it up, Xu Xun should do a few things: have a good relationship with the queen, make a good relationship, and if he can have a child, have a child.

Nothing else, everything else is false, what emperor's favor has nothing to do with not being martyred, and then Emperor Zhao is more favored than Guo Guifei? Guo Guifei said that martyrdom is not the same as martyrdom. The pronunciation of the Emperor and the Emperor of Death is very similar, but they are two completely different people.

The reason for having a good relationship with the queen is very simple, as long as she can survive the emperor and is not favored again, she is also the queen mother, that is, the heir emperor was not born to her, then she must also be recognized as a mother's great gift, without a little slackness - unless he doesn't want a word of filial piety in his own nickname. The Queen Mother sent a word not to her to be buried, and the possibility of others chasing and biting was much smaller.

As for making a good relationship, it is simpler, and it is better to make a good impression at the beginning than to wait for the birth of an heir to the emperor and then go to Haode. In the case that all the concubines in the palace are likely to give birth to the emperor, what Xu Xun has to do is to create an image of his kindness and kindness, not to make difficulties with others, to make good connections and everyone to be sincere sisters. In this way, the future concubine or queen mother (depending on how the emperor gives her biological mother a honorific title), the possibility of embarrassment with her is also very small, no matter how good it is, she doesn't want Xu Xun to be martyred, then Xu Xun's chance of survival is much greater.

As for the third point, it's just to find an excuse for her not to be martyred, you can say Concubine Li Xian, just because she was sick at the time, had sons and daughters, and wanted to fulfill their filial piety, so she didn't die. As a result, now that the illness is slowly getting better, she can get out of bed, if she doesn't have a good relationship with the Queen Mother, can she get this opportunity? It's really a good relationship, and there are excuses for having no children and no daughters. Therefore, if the child has it, and if he doesn't have it, he doesn't have to be anxious, but he will break his body.

After such a combing, Xu Xun's path is already obvious, and it is still the same as before: to be a good person who is kind to others from the heart.

Of course, the premise is that she has to be a smart person who doesn't cause trouble for herself, and the two are not contradictory. On the basis of these two conditions, she will strive for a higher title and then strive to have a son, but all this cannot be separated from the foundation of a smart and good person. You must know that her son may die young, and the title is not a fart before the funeral, but the reputation and feelings, these ethereal people's hearts, are the most durable, and they are the most likely to earn a life for her before the funeral.

Whether it's a virtuous concubine or a Ning concubine, they are all concubines anyway, and there will be no difference in treatment. The emperor opened his mouth to make her a concubine, even if he couldn't withstand the pressure and changed the title, Xu Xun didn't lose anything, maybe after changing the title, the emperor felt guilty and treated her better. are now sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai and can't blow the eight winds.

But she will no longer be like a little concubine who has just entered the palace, and she can't stand it anymore, and even a plate of soufflé can stand trembling.

Looking back, can you not have a little emotion in your heart?

#

are not in a hurry, but there are people in the inner palace who are anxious for her, and Concubine He Hui, who has not yet been canonized, has gone to Kunning Palace more times than before for a while - canonizing the queen is a ceremony, how can I prepare for a while, and now the queen has not been canonized, but she has been arranged to live in Kunning Palace.

"This is like this, when Xiaoxun enters Beijing, won't there even be a place to stand." Concubine He Hui wrote a deep sadness on her face, "It's really a good thing, what are the men thinking outside!" I only care about embarrassment with our weak women. ”

It is impossible for the queen to accept Concubine He Hui's words, but when it comes to the controversy surrounding Xu Xun's title, there is also a hint of worry between her eyebrows, "I thought it was a trivial matter, but now it seems that it is a little bit unlike......

She shared the news with Concubine He Hui, "I'm afraid you don't know yet, the emperor is so annoyed today that he almost has to bring up the matter of the court staff again." ”

The court staff, that is, the minister stripped naked and pulled to the outside of the Taihe Hall to spank, the bad habit passed down from the Yuan Dynasty, the Taizu Dynasty also followed, and it was abolished in the hands of the emperor - although the emperor was very easy to kill when he was young, he did not take the ministers much after ascending the throne, and the court staff was abolished in the last years. Now that the emperor wants to reopen the court staff, that is not a trivial matter. After all, this kind of thing is really humiliating, and once it is reopened, the situation will definitely escalate again, and when the time comes, no one knows how to accept Kena.

Concubine He Hui may not know the meaning behind the court staff, and the queen also knows this, she casually explained a few words to Concubine He Hui, which startled Concubine He Hui, "This is not a joke, sister, if she really opened the court staff for Xiao Xun, her reputation will really be bad in the future, but she must be unjustly killed?" ”

"That's what I said." The queen sighed worriedly, and she stood up, "It's just so that you're here today...... Let's go and say hello to the Queen Mother. ”

Although the queen is the nominal lord of the six palaces, she has made her attitude very clear: in this palace, the one who speaks is still the old queen mother who lives in Qingning Palace.

Concubine He Hui has nothing to say: for palace affairs, it is also right for the Queen Mother to come forward to speak. She really wanted to fight for Xu Xun in front of the Queen Mother. As soon as the queen and the concubine got on the sedan chair and went to Qingning Palace.

But I didn't expect to enter the Qingning Palace-the Queen Mother, but there were already guests.

Sun Guifei was also talking to the Queen Mother about this, "Da Lang is a little emotional......"

Seeing the queen and Concubine He Hui coming in, she hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to salute, "Sister - Sister Hui." ”

The queen glanced at the Queen Mother, and saw that the Queen Mother was distracted, and she didn't seem to notice what was in front of her, so she also glanced at Sun Guifei with a smile, "The concubine came early." ”

As if she hadn't heard anything, Sun Guifei stood in front of her seat and said with a light smile, "Didn't Da Lang rest at my place yesterday, and came over to say hello this morning, and said a few words after accompanying my mother, and it just so happened that my sisters also came......

The eyes of the two touched, and they both dodged away, and Concubine He Hui was busy playing in the center, "We are also here for this matter-Sister Sun, tell us quickly, what kind of ...... the eldest brother means."

Sun Guifei was about to answer, and the Queen Mother also called the queen, "My son, what are you doing standing?" Don't sit next to me yet. ”

She set the position, and Concubine Sun Guifei naturally continued to occupy the first position on the left hand just now, and Concubine He Hui saw it in her eyes and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Although there is a pet, it is too domineering in the end...... If it weren't for the Queen Mother's words, the queen wouldn't even have a place to sit......

She couldn't help but glance at the Queen Mother, wanting to see the old man's mood.

But the queen is as dark as the sea, and she didn't leave any clues for speculation......

The author has something to say: there are conflicts in the court, and there are conflicts in the harem

Xiao Xun has finally found his own path, maybe he can't go through?
