A room of people sat for a long time, saying things that were not salty or light, although Concubine He Hui was anxious about Xu Xun's matter, it was impossible for her to dominate the situation domineeringly in front of the Queen Mother, and let everyone turn the topic in the direction she wanted - in front of the Queen Mother, how could she speak?
The queen, who has room to speak, is indeed obviously a little absent-minded, although she is not distracted, but she is just following the words of the queen mother, and there is no intention of interjecting in the slightest. The Queen Mother herself didn't know what she was thinking, even Sun Guifei was distracted with a smile on her face, and Concubine He Hui was in a hurry alone in the room, she wondered in her heart: Didn't she say that the Queen Mother and Sun Guifei were also talking about the title of Virtuous Concubine, and now everyone is together, but one or two are like forgetting their original intentions, and they are racing here?
But the Queen Mother didn't mention this, and the Queen didn't mention it, Concubine He Hui couldn't help it even if she was in a hurry. I had to sit and act with everyone, no matter how uncalm my heart was, I had a faint smile on my face, and I chatted with the Queen Mother about the trivial things in the palace: the three major halls are still being repaired, and they have been fighting and dead all these years, and the state has a lot of expenditures, and the houses in the harem are all newly built, so don't renovate them...... There are few people now, so let's pick a palace and live in it. The concubines in the future will still depend on you to live.
Indeed, there are rules in the palace, and if you don't have a concubine, you can't lead a palace alone, you have to eat under the preparation of the concubine, and live in the side hall of their palace. Fortunately, in this palace, it is generally not said that there are two bare gardens, some are particularly haode, and there is a small garden or something in it. This time, the newly selected show girls, plus those who were promoted from below, are a total of seven or eight, and if they are divided in this way, each of the three concubines can be divided into two to take care of, but it will be lively all of a sudden.
But this is also bad, the emperor came to the palace, did he come to see the concubine, or to see the beauties and Zhaorong below? Of course, the newcomers are happy, and they can quickly brush their faces in front of the emperor, but the old people will feel that their rights and interests have been violated, right? The queen doesn't care about this, whether this rule can be implemented smoothly depends on the meaning of the concubine and the concubine.
Sun Guifei has no opinion on this matter at all, and Concubine He Hui naturally will not jump out to show herself, and she doesn't care at all. - Now that she is a concubine, everything has a fixed number, and the relationship between her and the emperor is not completely without affection, besides, there is another princess, and the affection that comes out of the palace together is enough for her to live a lifetime. This matter was settled very harmoniously, as for the title dispute of the virtuous concubine, the queen mother raised her eyebrows and said, "This matter, let's talk about it when the main lord arrives in the capital, and I will also talk to the emperor......"
As for what kind of attitude and what the charter was, the queen mother didn't reveal it at all, Concubine He Hui saw that the queen was still so soulless, sighed secretly in her heart, and took the initiative to get up and say goodbye, "Since this is the case, the son will retire." ”
The queen mother didn't stay much, and sent the queen away, "You should go back and rest quickly, I'm afraid that something in the palace will come to you again in the afternoon." I heard them say in a trance that they wanted to repaint Shouchang Palace and renovate it. ”
Shouchang Palace is now basically no one dares to go - it is the place where two generations of concubines were buried, and it is also a very common way to renovate and decorate it. So although this matter is small, the palace also has to come to ask the queen for advice.
The queen has no excuse to stay now, she glanced at the smiling and silent Concubine Sun, stood up and asked the queen mother to say goodbye, "The daughter-in-law will go back first, and come back tomorrow to greet you." ”
Concubine He Hui followed her out of the palace, and she didn't even dare to get too close to the queen. The queen behaved very normally, that is, when she raised her foot and crossed the threshold of Qingning Palace, she was not careful and almost tripped over, although the palace maid around her was in a hurry, but she still stumbled slightly.
Concubine He Hui sighed secretly in her heart, but she couldn't see it on her face, and stood beside her sedan chair with her hands tied, waiting for the queen to get on the sedan chair first.
The things in the palace, what can be mixed and what can't be mixed, everyone has an account in their hearts, how can Concubine Hui be able to do it, how can there be countless about it?

In the Qingning Palace, when everyone had withdrawn, the Queen Mother took Sun Guifei back to the room where the two of them had just been close, and Sun Guifei continued to tell the Queen Mother her story, "I felt that there were ghosts at the time, how could ordinary tonics be so colorful, so I immediately paid attention." Later, they also inquired in many ways, asked Wang Jin again, and asked Ma Shi and them - they didn't say anything at first, only that they were all slaves, and they only knew how to act according to orders. Later, I asked harshly, and then I muttered and said the whole thing: It turns out that I used to take medicine too! Then I somehow didn't eat it, and last year...... When the emperor was still there, the Taoist priests burned out the elixir again, and after the one who tried the medicine ate it, he said that it was refreshing and the fruit had a miraculous effect, and the original illness was cured! After eating, he didn't think about the grains, and the emperor rewarded him with a bottle, but before he could eat it, he had already died, and the bottle was also given to him. It was worth a thousand gold, so he burned this furnace of divine pills, he was just trying to take this medicine with me, and he took it out last time, and he thought about it and put it back because he was reluctant to eat it......"
The Queen Mother has always been very opposed to taking medicine for longevity, and when she heard about this, her brows were already wrinkled. Sun Guifei continued, "Later, he wanted to eat again, so he was persuaded by me. Because of this, the two of us were still arguing, so I pretended to be angry and threw the two bottles of medicine into the water. He was so distressed that he couldn't do it, and he and I were stunned for two days before he changed his mind. ”
The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and she didn't speak for a long time. Sun Guifei looked at her face and said carefully, "I just thought, if you can send a word, let those bull-nosed people go back to their hometowns to concentrate on cultivation, don't alchemy, then it would be good - this matter, no one in the court will disagree with you, right......"
"Hmm......" the Queen Mother hummed softly, "I have also told Da Lang many times not to take any miracle medicine - this time, what kind of miracle effect did it say?" ”
Sun Yunu sighed a little amusedly, "Yes--in addition to strengthening the body and prolonging life, it is said that after eating, she will also give birth to a son......
With the emperor's preference for the concubine, it is reasonable that he will leave this medicine with the concubine. The Queen Mother couldn't help but smile slightly, but she was also a little excited-what if this was true......
Women are always a little more practical than men, and this idea only existed for a moment before it was expelled from the mind of the Queen Mother. She shook her head and sighed, "It's the one who is most like his father in this matter!" ”
Sun Guifei pursed her lips and smiled, "It's not all inherited from Emperor Wen. ”
In fact, since Emperor Gao, the emperor of the dynasty has not failed to take pills, the emperor used to be in order to strengthen his body, the queen mother said that he also said, now it is to give birth to a son, it seems to be a little pitiful. Anyway, now that the throne has stabilized, the Queen Mother's anger against him has dissipated a lot.
Concubine Sun Guifei looked at the face of the Queen Mother, and said good things for the emperor. "After all, I haven't eaten anything before, but this is the first time I've been tempted, and I've been persuaded again. If you can drive away those dead bald donkeys and cow noses, Da Lang will want to eat the elixir in the future, and no one will burn it for him. ”
Thinking about it carefully, Sun's health has always been bad, and he must not be able to resist too much conquest. Besides, she followed herself, and she has always been against taking medicine, this time, there was an heir as bait, and Sun was not moved, so he hurriedly came to complain. It can be seen that she really didn't know about the previous incident.
The Queen Mother also knows Sun's very well - she doesn't have to tell this kind of lie, and she can't tell it, so far, a knot in her heart has been untied. She glanced at Sun and mentioned what had just happened, "When you inquired about the news of taking the medicine, did you find out anything else?" ”
Sun Guifei didn't hide it from the Queen Mother at all, "I heard Wang Jin and them say that you have educated your grandson privately in the past......"
Her eyes flushed and she knelt down with a snort. "I know that I am not in good health, and I can't be a concubine, and after she enters the door, I am also doing small and low everywhere. It's just that the love of these years is eye-catching after all. I don't know what she said to you, to make you think that I know that Da Lang is taking medicine, but still sit idly by......"
The Queen Mother snorted, "You are a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and the queen didn't say a word about you." In front of the hall just now, you shouldn't have given her a face. ”
Sun Guifei walked to the Queen Mother on her knees, hugged the Queen Mother's thigh like a child, "I have been misunderstood by you for a few years in vain - I am wronged!" ”
"Can the grievances be big or small?" The Queen Mother's tone was not very harsh. "That's it for this time, your mood is agitated, and you can't avoid ignoring the subtleties. In the future, in front of the queen, there is still no rudeness, otherwise, in front of the ancestors' rules, even I can't protect you. ”
She paused, and saw that although Sun Guifei was not convinced, she still nodded obediently, and couldn't help but feel a wave of pity, and gently stroked the concubine's bangs, "Has the emperor complained to you about this elixir?" ”
"No," Sun Guifei shook her head and said, "You also know Da Lang's character, and I inquired about this matter myself...... In front of him, I still pretended not to know anything. ”
The Queen Mother nodded deeply, "It's done, I know, I'll leave this matter to me." Don't mention it in front of Dalang, just assume that you don't know. ”
"Hey." Sun Guifei replied briskly, and she went to support the Queen Mother, "What time is this-I'll serve you for dinner......"
After lunch, the Queen Mother took a lunch break as usual, and Concubine Sun naturally went back. When I got up from a nap, Aunt Meng served the Queen Mother for a short time with bird's nest, and I heard the Queen Mother sigh.
A middle-aged woman in her forties is usually very energetic, because she is in good health and well-maintained, it is not too much to say that she is in her thirties. But today's Queen Mother looks very old.
"It's strange that they say that they are not stupid or deaf, and they don't want to be a family." She muttered to herself. "My mother-in-law is also confused, and now I can't even figure out the housework."
Aunt Meng didn't dare to say anything more - the Queen Mother didn't hold back when she was talking to Concubine Sun, she was on the side, but she still heard some things half-understood and half-understood, and this matter involved the queen again, so she didn't understand, but she didn't dare to ask a word.
"Go...... chatted with the people around Sun Guifei, and asked how the concubine and the emperor were usually together. The Queen Mother pondered for a long time, tapped her fingers on the table, and ordered unhurriedly, "And whether you have quarreled recently because of the pill." ”
"Hey." Aunt Meng naturally didn't have a second word.
The Queen Mother's first question is nothing to hide, all the palace maids who have served Sun Guifei - including the palace maids who used to be by Sun Guifei's side and are now transferred out are all of the same caliber: the concubine is frail, and she is usually the same as the emperor. Sometimes the emperor is not satisfied with being fortunate to others, and the concubine is not happy, so when he is by the side of the concubine, the emperor is once a night.
After all, she is a beloved woman, and she can control it, it seems that she really wronged the Sun family in the past, and the Sun family really didn't know about the aphrodisiac elixir case.
As for the elixir of giving birth to a child, there is really such a thing. The queen mother called Feng En, who had served the first emperor and now supervised the construction of the mausoleum, to ask, Feng En still has a memory, there is indeed such a box of pills, there are not many, more than 20 pills, the emperor attaches great importance to it, and after someone tries the medicine, it is initially effective, and after keeping a bottle himself, he gave the prince a bottle, which is still before the prince went to Nanjing. However, at that time, although this person's wife was soon pregnant after taking the medicine, she had not yet given birth, so neither the first emperor nor the prince had eaten it yet, and they were waiting.
Let people ask again - that person's daughter-in-law did give birth, and indeed gave birth to a big fat boy.
Emperor Weishenme suddenly wanted to take medicine, and the reason was very clear, he had been married to a wife for so many years and had no children, and he was also anxious! It's the Queen Mother, it's a pity at this time: why throw it all away, you can try someone again, if it's really effective, it can be seen that it is an elixir, not a harmful elixir......
Maybe it was because of this thought that she really didn't deal with those Taoist priests, and she didn't talk to the emperor - she didn't know, and she also turned a blind eye. This turmoil passed quietly invisibly.
Compared with the emperor's body, whether to give the title of virtuous concubine or not is a little insignificant - and because the queen mother did not come forward to speak, when Xu Xun arrived in Beijing, the two sides were still facing each other, and as soon as she entered the palace, she received several times more attention than before. The Queen Mother, the Empress, Sun Guifei, He Huifei, and even Nan Yipo, Zhao Mama, Feng En...... Either let someone come over, or come over in person, all with an expression of a thousand words that he wanted to tell Xu Xun. However, the emperor was still working in the foreign court, and he didn't know that his favorite concubine had returned to the capital.
Xu Xun thought about it, and was the first to go to the queen to say goodbye.
The author has something to say: Xiao Sun knows the reason why he didn't give way to the queen in the last chapter, right?
I'm angry.
The misunderstanding is getting deeper......
