135 in power

135. Take power

It's getting late, and when I go out to visit the queen at this time, Xu Xuncai's body may not be able to withstand the evening breeze - although the weather is gradually getting warmer, it has just been less than a month after giving birth, and it is still a little exquisite. No matter how surprised he was, Xu Xun couldn't rush to Kunning Palace right now.

She flipped through the gift list and glanced at the lotus lotus a few times - it was also an old man who had been with the queen for at least ten years, when everyone lived in a courtyard before, they didn't look up and looked down, although there was a difference in identity, but at that time Xu Xun said that his identity was a little higher than that of lotus lotus, everyone talked and laughed, and it was not taboo to this. "This gift is too heavy, lotus, if you don't give a word, I won't be able to sleep tonight."

The big palace maid in Kunning Palace, although she is not full of arrogance, but as the first and second units in the harem, she is generally very confident in speaking and doing things. Lotus lotus often has a confident smile on her face, and she speaks and does things with such stability and thoughtfulness...... But now, although her demeanor is still so perfect, the demeanor on Lotus Lotus's face has changed, her eyes are not as bright as before, and the smile on her lips is also a little reluctant. "These are all things that have been prepared for the little brother and sister in the future over the years, and now Ah Huang is also older, so he doesn't need these. Niangniang thinks it's all good things, and it's a pity to take it for nothing, so it's better to give a little bit and make it ...... with her younger brothers and sisters."

It is said that it is a play, a small thing, but the same on the gift list is a set of twelve golden and jade zodiac toys, this golden and jade zodiac, Xu Xun has seen it in the queen, even in Kunning Palace, there are a number of good things. A set of zodiac signs, not big or small, vivid, although the use of the best clear gemstones, can give people the feeling that the work is more valuable than the material. Although this thing is just a toy, it can also be brought to the princess's mansion for Ah Huang to enjoy in the future. In the future, a series of long-life locks, arm locks, and purse pendants, although they are all things used by children, and they are also past Ah Huang's age, but in the future, Ah Huang's children can also use them, but the queen gave a little bit of it.

In addition, there are a large number of precious fabrics, some of which are used entirely by adults - no child will wear pomegranate-patterned clothes to shake around, and there are hundreds of children and grandchildren...... This is beyond Xu Xun's own grade, not so much that the queen is giving a little gift, but rather that she is clearing her own treasury, it is estimated that all the things related to children and grandchildren are given to Xu Xun, and there are some jewelry that obviously exceeds Xu Xun's own grade.

Xu Xun collected this gift, but if he didn't accept it, it would be tantamount to slapping the queen in the face. Lotus Lotus's words couldn't convince her, but it was not easy to force her to ask - people are here to give gifts, not to ask for debts, if you don't have a ghost in your heart, you can just live without suspicion. Asking questions is a little childish.

Although this is the truth, Xu Xun flipped through the gift list, and the more he flipped it, the more sad he became, and he wanted to speak a few times, but he couldn't say anything. When Lotus saw it, he also accompanied Xu Xun to sigh, and said, "I also ask Concubine Zhuang for one thing - when you go to Kunning Palace to see you in a few days, don't mention this gift to Niangniang." Now, we don't talk about children in front of our mothers. ”

What a sadistic ...... What else does Xu Xun have to say? I had to agree, and when I saw that it was getting late, I sent Lotus Lotus and another palace maid to reward Feng'er and let them go back to pay their errands.

When Xu Xun received the queen's messenger here, of course it was not easy for Mama Qian and others to intervene, but now that the outsiders were gone, a few grandmothers took the gift list from Xu Xun's hand, checked it by themselves, and then registered it in the warehouse. Xu Xun teased a little here, and naturally packed up and prepared to go to bed, and when she finished washing, Mama Qian came in and called her back. "The storeroom is almost fullβ€”"

She glanced at Xu Xun a few times and didn't say anything further, as if she was waiting for Xu Xun's next words. Xu Xun nodded, but didn't answer, Mama Qian couldn't help it. "Niangniang, if something goes wrong, it will be a demon, and the mind on the other side of Kunning Palace ......"

"Maybe I'll really feel sad to see it, so I'll just send it to me." Xu Xundao, "The palace and the queen are the most haode, that is, our Yong'an Palace, and a little bit is small, which can be used." If you don't send it here, are you still going to send it to Changning Palace? ”

This...... Of course, it's not unreasonable, but sometimes things in the palace are so simple? Mama Zhao's eyebrows were a little dark, "Don't try to use this matter to make you and Changning Palace ...... apart."

"There's no need to think so complicated about people's hearts." Xu Xun shook his head, "Others haven't done anything yet, on our side, we can do what we have to do, and we don't have to think about it, but we are messed up." ”

She seldom said anything about it, and the two grandmothers looked at each other, but they did not dare to speak againβ€”but they were still a little worried.

Mama Qian was still calm, but Mama Zhao was tossing and turning, and she didn't sleep well all night, and the next morning, after serving breakfast, Mama Zhao and Mama Qian could be on duty. But Mama Zhao was stunned and took a step to find Liu Zhien when Xu Xun went out to visit Kunning Palace.

"Master Liu." Everyone is used to this kind of greeting, but Liu Zhien will bow his head slightly, as if to show his humility, "Did you see the gift list of Kunning Palace yesterday?" ”

Liu Zhien has only just come in, and he has already gone out when he gave gifts yesterday, but even so, there are still people who report to him. "I listened to it, and I don't know the ins and outs."

Mama Zhao naturally whispered to Liu Zhien.

"This ......" Liu Zhien was also a little unsure, and thought for a while, "What does Niangniang mean?" ”

"Niangniang means to respond to all changes with the same, and receive it when it is sent." Mama Zhao said, "I also said that there is no need to think too complicated about people's hearts. ”

"You can't be wrong about that," Yoo Ji-eun frowned.

"It's good to be wrong, but we are subordinates, and we can't share our worries for our mothers? Right now, in the palace, the ones who can handle it are the mother and the concubine, and the concubine has just closed the palace to recuperate......" Mama Zhao muttered, "If you are not careful now, you will make a mistake, and I am afraid that I will not regret it if I slap myself in the future." ”

The grievances between the queen and the concubine, who else in the harem doesn't know now. If Sun Guifei is pregnant in the palace, if she accidentally gives birth to a boy, the queen will definitely have to live by people's eyes in the second half of her life, for her, it is really very utilitarian to say, then now it is better to get rid of the child in Sun Guifei's belly, even if she can't regenerate, she has to adopt from the near branch clan and become an adoptive mother in the future, which is also much stronger than Sun Guifei's son.

And compared to the Kunning Palace, which is now very weak, the one that is more suitable for making a move is of course the Yong'an Palace, which is being favored by the saint. Obviously, Changning Palace is closed, if you are pregnant, the concubines over there will be transferred out one after another, when the time comes, will the emperor run to Changning Palace more times, or go to Yong'an Palace more times? There is no doubt about it, although it is said that she gave birth to a daughter, the market of Yong'an Palace is still bullish......

Mama Zhao probably can only consider this, and she can't see the deeper entanglement of interests. Liu Zhien glanced at her a few times, but she was confident, and said with a slight smile, "Niangniang has her own sense of proportion, let's look at it coldly, if Niangniang has anything unexpected, just mention it again." There is no mother who doesn't speak, let's do the reason of being in a hurry. ”

As the two were talking, someone suddenly came from outside, "Niangniang went directly to Qingning Palace from Kunning Palace to ask for peace, I'm afraid I won't come back for lunch." ”

If you don't come back for lunch, of course you want to say hello, Mama Zhao wondered when she heard it, but Liu Zhien smiled and said nothing-Obviously, this matter was already expected by him.

Today is not a three-day dynasty, so when Xu Xun walked into Kunning Palace, the palace was quite deserted - the queen was not in the main hall.

She walked slowly among the flowers and trees in the backyard of Kunning Palace with her hands in her hands, and when she saw Xu Xun coming, she stopped and smiled, "Xiao Xun is here." ”

Xu Xun used a lot of strength to suppress her surprise and regret, she smiled and saluted the queen, "The concubine has seen the mother-"

"Why take it so seriously." The queen waved her hand and looked a little weak, "Have you been around the bend for a quarter of an hour today?" ”

Probably got a positive answer, she was obviously relieved, and led Xu Xun back to the house and sat down. "The doctor said, "Although I can't be tired of this disease, I can't lie still. The doctor's order is to move for at least half an hour every day, but even now, I am still dizzy when I get up...... That's about a quarter of an hour at most. ”

The queen should not have exaggerated anything, her face had a kind of pale characteristic of excessive blood loss, and that kind of weak and sluggish demeanor could not be disguised. Although it has not been exaggerated to the point that the green silk turned gray overnight, although it has only been less than seven months since Xu Xun last saw her, the queen seems to be seven or eight years old. Now she looked as if she was a few years older than the Emperor.

What's more important is the queen's eyes...... If it weren't for the fact that her clothes and appearance hadn't changed, Xu Xun would almost have been a little afraid to recognize her...... She has never seen such a queen, and the calmness and indifference that have always accompanied her, and the queen's bearing seems to have been buried in that miscarriage along with the hope of childbirth.

It doesn't look like it's like being able to have children anymore, and if you have to say it, it doesn't look like you still have the strength to be in charge of the harem. Xu Xun was in doubt that the queen would be able to maintain her attention for more than half an hour now, she looked too weak, as if she could close her eyes and fall asleep at any time.

"Tai Hospital always prescribes nourishing prescriptions." Xu Xun couldn't help but care, "Sister, I've been eating this for a few months, hasn't it worked?" ”

"It worked, why didn't it work?" The queen smiled weakly, "It's because it works that I can get out of bed and walk around." If it doesn't work, I'm afraid it will have already passed in my sleep...... I heard that I almost drained all the blood in my body that day, and if it weren't for the century-old ginseng, I wouldn't have been able to die at all. ”

She coughed lightly a few times, "Before the beginning of spring, the Tai Hospital said that 'it will be okay after this winter'." You should also understand what this means. ”

This basically means that I am very worried that the queen will not even be able to survive the winter. -- If you lose a lot of blood, your body will be weak, and if you feel cold in winter, you will probably faint as soon as you close your eyes. Now after the beginning of spring, the weather is gradually warmer, at least the possibility of getting sick will be much smaller, if you take good care of it, maybe you can cross this threshold and save your life.

Of course, childbirth or anything else is something that you can't think about......

Xu Xun also saw the queen and realized that everyone in Weishenme at that time turned all their attention to her without hesitation: the queen is like this, and the second half of her life is basically over. An Sheng is recuperating in Kunning Palace, not to mention competing with Sun Guifei for jealousy or something, she just wants to be jealous, and she may not have this physical strength.

She immediately dispelled the idea of asking about the full moon ceremony: Sick like this, it is very reasonable to simply not want to see things related to Zixi, some things, seeing things and thinking about people, often arouse the feelings of the owner, patients often don't think so much, giving is giving. It is also inappropriate to bring up such a sensitive topic in front of the patient.

"Isn't it all winter now?" She explained to the queen, "I will slowly raise it in the future, what else can't be raised?" ”

The queen smiled, and didn't argue with Xu Xun, she said to herself, "It's just right for you to come today, and if it's a few days late, I can't say that I have to ask someone to post to invite you - after I became ill, the big and small affairs in the palace have always been managed by Qingning Palace." But the old man is old, and there is no reason to let that side continue to be in charge of it indefinitely. ”

Of course, this is too simple to explain. Qingning Palace took over the palace affairs at that time, in fact, it was because the queen was pregnant, otherwise, if the palace affairs were so thankless, they might not be able to take care of their heads.

"I actually thought of you in my heart at that time, but you were pregnant, and I didn't know what would happen, so I didn't say it clearly." The queen coughed lightly, "The concubine is relatively weak, I'm afraid she may not be able to do itβ€”you see, isn't this really sick again?" Now that you are out of confinement, you can also smoothly take the palace affairs from Qingning Palace. What do you see? ”

Although it was a tone of discussion, Xu Xun basically had no room for disagreement. Unless she planned to push Concubine He Hui out of the palace, there was no other way than to agree. She had no choice but to say, "I'm afraid I won't care about it, and it's too messy to make a mess at home." ”

"What do you say?" The queen was also amused by her, "It's not like you haven't taken care of it." ”

She beat her spirits and talked to Xu Xun for half a day, and she seemed to be a little tired. As he spoke, he yawned, "It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, it's better to go to Qingning Palace today to ask for peace, I mean, I already know everything over there, and the Queen Mother is also very much in favor." ”

This is tantamount to asking Xu Xun to accept the entry speech, maybe to Qingning Palace, the Queen Mother will take advantage of the situation and hand over power. Xu Xun was a little unprepared, so he sighed, thought about it and agreed. On the way to Qingning Palace in the past, when I thought about it, I understood it: it was strange that a few princesses were good to her. It's really hard to say when you will hand over the power, if you are lucky, maybe the princess's marriage is all organized by her with the help of the counselor. These troublesome sisters-in-law, if you don't have a good relationship with her, you can't be at ease in your heart.

Judging from the reactions of the princesses, at least the Queen Mother should still be very supportive of her taking over the palace affairs. Xu Xun thought bitterly - although he was forced to go to Liangshan, at least, he still had the support from Kunning Palace and Qingning Palace.

She expected it to be good, the Queen Mother's attitude towards Xu Xun has always been very kind, although she gave birth to a daughter, which somewhat disappointed the Queen Mother, but the reasonable old man will not show this disappointment too obviously. The old man asked for some full moon wine, and when he learned that it was doing well, he smiled and said, "They all say that the child is very strong - the weather is still cold at this time, and in a few months, you can bring it to me." ”

Of course, Xu Xun's interest in housekeepers was not high, and he hurriedly took advantage of the situation to make a small struggle, "Exactly, I thought to myself, I have been a little young in the past few months, and in fact, I haven't been able to find much time to come out." In a few months, I think Changning Palace will be free there......"

The Queen Mother looked at Xu Xun and smiled, "You want to be lazy, right?" ”

She also understood Xu Xun's thoughts, "Indeed, it is said that the concubine should come forward at this time." However, she has just gotten sick, who knows when she will get better? It's not a problem for us to wait for her, so she has a lot on her mind, and she doesn't like it anymoreβ€”"

Xu Xun listened and was a little surprised: in her heart, the Queen Mother's vast and well-informed level was not something she could compare. Even she knows some news, hasn't the Queen Mother received the news yet?

She didn't think much about it, so she corrected it, "Back to Niangniang's words...... Isn't there a saying that Sister Sun is pregnant......"

"Huh?" The Queen Mother was very surprised and put down the teacup in her hand, it seemed that she really didn't know anything about this statement. "What do you say? Pregnant? ”

At that time, the old man couldn't sit still and asked someone to go to the hospital to spread the word. "Let the imperial doctor who gave Concubine Sun Guifei a pulse to see me - take the pulse
