Chapter 179: Checks and Balances in the Taihe Hall (II)
"Then do as you say, and leave the idea to you." The Queen Mother picked up a cup of morning dew tea, blew it lightly, and sipped it carefully. "I can't see that I grew up in the palm of the Ling family, but I can understand the suffering of the people so much. The mourning family heard that you donated a lot of precious jewelry for disaster relief this time. ”
Seeing that she had been praised by the Queen Mother, Ling Suxin was overjoyed, but she was even more humble on the surface:
"The queen mother has a good reputation, my grandfather and father have the trust of the emperor to entrust the responsibility of disaster relief, and the concubines should also do their part, but unfortunately what can be done is too limited, if you can really help the emperor even a little, it will be good."
"This is the heart for the emperor."
The Queen Mother put down the tea and instructed Aunt Rui:
"If you have a meritorious reward, go and shake the golden silk inlaid ruby double luan of the mourning family."
"Yes." Aunt Rui was blessed, and after a while, she brought a box, red sandalwood depicted the mandarin duck and the picture, and even the box looked exquisite and expensive, not to mention the things inside.
Opening the lid, the Queen Mother personally put the step on Ling Suxin's bun.
"This pair of Luan dots and cuibu shook was given by the first emperor and the queen mother when they got married, and what was entrusted was the first emperor's deep affection for the queen mother, which was too precious, how could the concubines ask for it." Ling Suxin wanted to take it off as she spoke, but was stopped by the Queen Mother.
"It is precisely because this step is full of friendship that the mourning family transferred it to you, who also have a sincere heart for the emperor, which is considered a reward, and you deserve it."
Raise your eyebrows lightly,
"What, doesn't the imperial concubine like this gift?"
"No, how can the concubine not like it." Ling Suxin stroked the step, her face full of joy, and the joy revealed on the surface was less than one-tenth of her heart. "The concubine was just too excited for a while."
"Look at this stupid boy." The Queen Mother smiled, "If you like it, you have to know the meaning of this." The symbol of the imperial concubine's appearance can stand this step, and the mourning family is also happy when they look at it. ”
"The concubine will wear it every day in the future, and don't forget the queen mother's teaching today."
Ling Suxinfu bowed and said movingly.
"That's it, the mourning family is still a little tired, so I won't leave you."
The Queen Mother issued an eviction order, and Ling Suxin didn't want to stay longer after achieving today's goal and the extra gain, so she saluted and retreated.
Aunt Rui went out to send each other,
When I came back, I took the door with me.
"How does the imperial concubine look." The Queen Mother sat on the chair with her eyes closed, flicked the Buddhist beads in her hand, and asked.
"Back to the Queen Mother, when the imperial concubine went out, the spring breeze was proud, her face was full of joy, and she was obviously extremely ......happy," Aunt Rui paused, "It's just that the master did it that day, the Queen Mother really didn't think much about her chin, and the slave always felt that this matter would not be so simple." ”
"Of course it's not that simple. What kind of person is the imperial concubine, how could she run over to offer advice for the disaster, and there is only one person who can get her to care about it except for her appearance. The Queen Mother slowly opened her eyes, "That's Bai Jingyin." ”
"It seems that Concubine Jing is following the emperor's feelings, but she has lost the favor of the queen mother
。 Aunt Rui said.
"Such a smart girl, how could the mourning family not like it. It's just that the mourning family likes it or not, and it's not worth mentioning in front of the national community. Bai Jingyin, this child, if she gave birth to a boy, it would be okay for the marquis to pay homage to her, but she mistakenly became a woman and became the emperor's favorite concubine. ”
The Queen Mother sighed and brought the Buddhist beads in her hand back to her wrist.
"It is not unreasonable that concubines are not allowed to interfere in politics after the palace rules, if a concubine is resourceful and ambitious, then he knows that his relatives will not become big in the future, if such a person becomes a queen again, I am afraid that it is possible to ask the curtain to ask about politics. At that time, won't the world follow her surname Bai? ”
"But the slave maid looked at Concubine Jing as a simple and straightforward person......"
"People will become, especially if they are too closely connected with 'rights', and that will become faster." The Queen Mother got up and walked slowly towards the back room. "The mourning family can't take this risk, the emperor likes her, so the mourning family naturally can't like her."
"So even if the Queen Mother knew that the Imperial Concubine wanted to borrow the Heavenly Master to deal with Concubine Jing, she would turn a blind eye."
"Arrow." The Queen Mother glanced at her, "Why do you need to say it, just know it in your heart." ”
"Doesn't the Queen Mother also like to talk to slaves?" Aunt Rui has served the Queen Mother since she was a child, so she naturally knows what she can say and can't say, and she also knows that the Queen Mother is not really angry. "Compared with Concubine Jing, the Queen Mother doesn't like the Imperial Concubine now."
"I like it, how can I not like it." The Queen Mother snorted lightly, with inscrutable emotions in her eyes. "Didn't the mourning family reward her with all the steps given by the first emperor, I'm afraid that she can fly to the sky happily with wings now."
"But the Queen Mother doesn't trust the imperial concubine." Aunt Rui pressed her leg for the Queen Mother, "That's why I will be wary of her." ”
"She can't become a climate by herself, but she can't bear Ling Xiang's growing ambitions. The old horseman thinks about the mourning family very clearly, once her daughter becomes the queen and gives birth to the prince, then I am afraid that the father and son with wolf ambitions will immediately force the palace. ”
"From this point of view, the Ling family is indeed much more dangerous than Concubine Jing."
"But it's much simpler than letting the emperor not love someone, and making the imperial concubine unable to become the hope of the Ling family." The Queen Mother paused, "Even if you become a queen, you can't become a fertile queen." ”
After that, the Queen Mother took out a brocade box from the dark pavilion under the bed, and what was contained in it was the same branch that Fang had just given to Ling Suxin.
She looked at the hairpin and stroked the lifelike pair of birds.
"I just hope that she can live up to the expectations of the mourning family and keep carrying it."
The implication is self-evident.
***
Back in the Linlang Palace, Ling Suxin was still happy, holding the hairpin in her hand and turning it over and over again.
Haitang stood aside and said curiously:
"Although this step is beautiful and luxurious, but Niangniang has so many treasures and jewelry, and there are more precious and gorgeous than it, why do you value this so much."
"Don't you know, no amount of jewelry can compare to the Queen Mother's reward
There are a lot of things in this hairpin. Wu Mama said: "This step shake was given by the first emperor and the queen mother when they got married, and bluntly said that only their own queen can be worthy of such a gorgeous step, queen, does this mean that I still don't understand, it is to imply that our mother is on the back seat, I am afraid it is also a sitting." ”
"Really! That's great news. After Haitang understood, his eyes widened happily and he sighed with joy.
