"Side concubine, that little cheap hoof hooked the prince again. "Lily of the valley picked the wick to make the lamp brighter, so that it was convenient for Concubine Yang to read the account book," I heard that the little cheap hoof stood in front of the prince's study for an afternoon today, and he didn't go back when it rained, and the prince was distressed, so he went to Qiushui Garden. ”

"Don't look at what poems she has on her lips, after all, she is still a fox, and she is just a means that cannot be put on the stage. You can't pull off this face, concubine, otherwise with your beauty, there will be something wrong with her!"

Concubine Yang stopped looking at the account book and bit her lip gently.

"The matter that the slave maid mentioned to you last time, the side concubine should think about it, according to the slave maid's meaning, it should be sooner rather than later. Lily of the valley said.

"I have to think about it again. Concubine Yang pressed her temples, "How are things going in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple?"

"Childe came back in the afternoon, and everything went according to plan. Lily of the valley said.

"That's good. Concubine Yang said, "Jiang Liu is just a clown who jumps off the beam, so let's deal with Concubine Su's affairs first." ”

"Yes. Lily of the valley thought for a while and said, "The last time the prince got into trouble, the side concubine should go directly to the palace and let the queen mother be the master, and the son of the world will pass under the knee of the side concubine." ”

"The matter of the Qi Palace, in the final analysis, it is still the prince's decision. The queen mother can influence the prince, but she can't influence the prince's decision. If the prince is unhappy in his heart, even if he listens to the queen mother's words, he is uncomfortable in his heart, then this incident has to be issued, and I will naturally become this punching bag?"

"The third lady is very quiet, her spirit has decreased greatly, and she doesn't dare to make any moves now, there is still a little bit of the high-spirited appearance she used to be?" Lily of the Valley continued, "However, she seems to be close to that little cheap hoof, should the side concubine come forward to woo her? Anyway, she is not a threat now, if she can successfully win her over, she can take the lead against that little cheap hoof in the future." ”

"I've been fighting with her for almost ten years, do you think there will be a day when we will get along peacefully? I'm going to woo her now, even if she agrees, I'm still afraid that she will be stabbed in the back!"

"The slave knows that you don't like to hear this, but the slave and maid still have to talk about it again. In this Qi Palace, the prince will not only have a side concubine and you alone, even if the side concubine, the third lady, and Jiang Liu are all finished in the future, there will always be new women coming, rewarded by His Majesty, and offered by the minister, rather than this, it is better to cultivate a few henchmen who can be handled as soon as possible, and take precautions. Lily of the valley said.

"I see. Concubine Yang pressed her temples, "I will take care of this matter." ”

In addition to the melting of ice and snow in February, and the arrival of early spring, there is another thing that is the matter of Princess Changle and her relatives.

Princess Changle is famous, and the people respect this beautiful princess very much, and now the princess is about to go to the Western Regions for the stability of Northern Xia, but it has caused many people to cry and sigh.

There are also several scholars who jointly signed a letter, hoping to cancel this policy of harmony, because it would damage the prestige of Northern Xia. There are even many people who think that such a beautiful princess should stay in Beixia, and she can change to a princess to make peace.

At the same time, many people also set their eyes on Mi Zi, who had rejected Princess Changle, and I don't know how many people secretly scolded him for not knowing how to cherish the blessings, such a beautiful wife, how many people can't ask for it. Some people also think that the identity of the proton in Mizi District also dares to insult the princess of Northern Xia, this is the provocation of Northern Xia, and he should immediately send troops to recruit Southern Chu.

Qi Zi himself naturally didn't pay attention to these rumors, but what he didn't expect was that some people's jokes actually became facts. He never dreamed that his refusal to marry that day would really become one of the reasons for his conquest of Nanchu in the future.

Each other, although he is a little unruly, occasionally gloomy, and generally a sunny boy, but the tragedy begins to count down, and his life will usher in the darkest moment.

There are many discussions outside, but the affairs of Princess Changle and her relatives are proceeding in an orderly manner, and the gifts and etiquette prepared in the palace are all decided by Concubine Li.

What the Queen Mother didn't expect was that Concubine Li's ability was so outstanding, since she took charge of the harem instead of Concubine Yun, except for some things that she couldn't make up her mind to ask herself, nothing else had gone wrong, which had never happened to Concubine Yun back then.

She couldn't help but re-examine Concubine Li, with such ability, how could she have been obscure for so many years?

"This is the dowry list, the Queen Mother, please take a look. Concubine Yun handed the list prepared for Princess Changle to the Queen Mother, "There were originally one hundred and eight palace maids who followed the princess to make peace, but the princess couldn't bear to leave her hometown so much, so it was changed to eighteen, but the concubines added antiques, calligraphy, paintings, silk, etc. ”

The Queen Mother took a look, thought about it carefully, and said: "You have done a good job, this dowry list is very detailed, you let Your Majesty take a look at it and see if Your Majesty has anything to reward." ”

"Yes. ”

The Queen Mother picked up the teacup and took a sip and asked, "I heard that the seventh child is also starting to run errands?"

"yes. Concubine Li said worriedly, "Your Majesty asked him to assist Prime Minister Shangguan in handling the matter of opening a branch and taking a scholar, but this kid has never done a serious errand, and this opening a branch is such an important matter, lest he mess up the matter." ”

"When a child is older, he should go through the experience. The Queen Mother said, "But let him rest assured to do it boldly, don't be afraid of it because he is afraid of doing it." ”

"Yes. ”

While speaking, the palace maid entered the inner report and reported: "Qiyu Empress Dowager, King Qin and Princess Qin have come to greet the Empress Dowager." ”

"Let them in. ”

"Yes. ”

After a while, I saw Liu Ling and Shangguan Yu'er walking side by side, Liu Ling walked fast on his legs, Shangguan Yu'er adjusted his pace to catch up with him, Liu Ling didn't mean to wait for him to be together, people who came over knew at a glance that there was a strangeness between the two!

"I've seen the Queen Mother. The two knelt down and saluted.

"No need to be polite, get up. The Queen Mother smiled kindly.

At this time, Liu Ling remembered that they were a couple, helped Shangguan Yu'er to get up, and asked Concubine Li to say goodbye.

"It's been almost a few days since you got married, can you still get along well?" asked the Queen Mother kindly.

Shangguan Yu'er glanced at Liu Ling, lowered her eyes and smiled, and said, "Empress Dowager Xie cares, it's good." ”

"The mourning family is waiting to hold their grandson. The Queen Mother laughed, as if she remembered something, and asked, "What kind of hibiscus is still in the Qin Palace?"

Shangguan Yu'er glanced at Liu Ling, Liu Ling hugged her fists and said, "Here, she is Sun Er's wife, where can she be if she is not in the Qin Palace?"

"Last time, the son broke into such a big disaster and lost the face of the heavenly family, but she actually stayed in the palace, what did she do in the palace?" The queen mother smiled coldly, "Okay, now that you have a serious princess, let the princess restrain her well in the future, don't let her cause any more trouble, then it will be your King Qin's face!"

"Yes. Liu Ling's heart was naturally uncomfortable, and he didn't dare to talk back to the Queen Mother, so he had to respond stiffly.

"King Qin, Se Ling Zhi is faint, you remember. The Queen Mother said earnestly.

These four words are relatively heavy, although the Queen Mother may be well-intentioned, but for the listener, it is still difficult to accept in the heart.

"Remembered. Liu Ling's smile faded, this queen mother has always been biased towards King Qi, and now she will naturally belittle herself.

He glanced at Concubine Li and said, "The seventh brother is going to run this next scientific examination with his father-in-law, his father-in-law is old, and I hope that the seventh brother can help his father-in-law more." ”

Concubine Li hurriedly said: "Lao Qi, he is so young, he has never done an errand, and now is the time to learn from the prime minister." ”

After greeting the Queen Mother, the two went to greet Concubine Yun again.

"Do you say that the Queen Mother can see our relationship?" Shangguan Yu'er said as she walked, "The Queen Mother said that you are lustful and intellectual, in fact, I don't agree, if you are really a lustful person, this Qin Wangfu will not be the only one for so long." Why the hell are you so fond of Fleur?"

"What do you have to do with it?" Liu Ling replied coldly, and then walked two steps forward quickly.

Shangguan Yu'er didn't want the relationship with Liu Ling to be so stiff, so as not to be seen as flawed, so she had nothing to talk to him, but she didn't expect him to appreciate it at all.

After a while, the two came to Concubine Yun's bedroom.

Concubine Yun has lost her previous state, as if she is several years old, but her body is still light, like a shy white lotus in the wind, which will still make people pity.

Compared with Fleur, Concubine Yun was very satisfied with the daughter-in-law she had personally chosen, and she was very happy when she saw her son bring the bride to greet her, and gave her the gift she had prepared a long time ago.

Concubine Yun was generous, and she gave a lot of gifts, this time it was the night pearl, the Hainan pearl, the out-of-print books, and the precious calligraphy and paintings, these things were enough to buy several houses in the capital, which showed the importance of Shangguan Yu'er.

She knows her son's temperament, and she will inevitably have trouble with the new princess for the woman Furui, and now that the prime minister of Shangguan is mainly responsible for the upcoming scientific examination, she has to curry favor with some Shangguan Yuer for her son, so that the people of the Shangguan family can see the attitude.

"The concubine's gift is too valuable, and the concubines don't dare to accept it. Shangguan Yu'er said.

"This is a little bit of the mother's heart. Concubine Yun took Shangguan Yu'er's hand and said, "Is King Qin good to you?"

Shangguan Yu'er glanced at Liu Ling, and then replied, "It's good." ”

"If King Qin dares to snub you in any place, he can enter the palace at any time to find the concubine, and the concubine will be the master for you!" Concubine Yun said, "If he dares to bully you, this palace will teach him a lesson for you!"

"Thank you, Princess. Shangguan Yu'er said jokingly, "With the support of the concubine, the concubine feels that her waist is straight!"
