"Do you think Hongu hasn't thought about it? The fifth elder brother is a strong and healthy child at first glance, if he does it once, he does not die, do you think that with the emperor's attention to him, can the queen of the palace still sit firmly? The queen's eyebrows are all calculated: "This palace understands the emperor, although the emperor is looking forward to this child now, but in the end he has not cultivated the relationship between father and son, what accident happens, this palace still has a way to deal with it, but the fifth elder brother is different, he is as strong as a calf, although he is not very sensible, but the danger is also extremely high, unless it is absolutely necessary, this palace can keep him for a few more years." ”

"But if the fifth elder brother is an adult, won't there be no chance to start?"

"You know what? If you want to get rid of a prince, you can not only start from his body, but also from his future. ”

Rao knew that the queen would never show mercy, but Xinyu was still shocked for a moment, to say that she was going to take precautions, the queen was definitely a first-class master, and she had a slightly paranoid psychology that she would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let go of one, and it was also because the queen had always wanted to be the best queen since she got married, and no one could threaten her status, otherwise she would give herself unlimited psychological pressure.

Now that the emperor has spoken, the group set off to return to the palace, although the journey is far away, but fortunately, there are a lot of palaces along the way, Hua Ying for some reason, she vaguely feels a lot more relaxed than when she came, probably because Mulan paddock herself has never been here, and she always feels that a stone in her heart has been moved.

"The concubine asks the Queen Mother to say goodbye, and the Queen Mother is blessed with Jin'an."

After returning to the palace after a long absence, the harem concubines have also arrived, and it is time to visit the queen mother, of course, the eldest princess of Duanjing also lives in Cining Palace with the queen mother, and many concubines also want to take this opportunity to please the eldest princess, after all, this eldest princess is the most favored and powerful among many princesses.

"Get up, Duanjing is here today, let's talk with the women in the harem, don't be so restrained, after all, Duanjing has only come back this time after so many years."

The eldest princess sat next to the queen mother, calmly scanning everyone below, including the queen, she changed into a palace dress, although the whole person is not so amazing, but it is also dazzling and beautiful, maybe this is from the self-confidence in the bones.

"The eldest princess of Duanjing is becoming more and more radiant, and the concubine vaguely remembers that she was fortunate to see the eldest princess back then, but now it hasn't changed at all." Except for the queen, no one present seemed to have a relationship with the eldest princess.

However, it is obvious that the queen and the eldest princess are not very familiar with each other, just look at the eldest princess's plain expression: "The imperial sister-in-law is polite, and the imperial sister-in-law is still in style." ”

After speaking, there seemed to be no more topics, the scene was a little quiet, and Hua Ying said aloud: "I have always heard of the demeanor of the eldest princess before, and I want to see it, mainly because the queen mother always praises the eldest princess for her cheerful and generous temperament, saying that she misses the princess very much, and now when I see it, the eldest princess is indeed approachable." ”

"Concubine Yun is really good at praising people, what the emperor says is cheerful and generous, in fact, it means that this princess doesn't know how to count etiquette." Speaking of her own mother, Princess Duanjing also glanced at the queen mother, and said with a smile: "Although I am far away in Mongolia, I have also heard of the virtuous name of Concubine Yun, and the mother is indeed like this, the emperor often praises you, saying that your massage skills are good, so look at it, not only the craftsmanship is good, but also a wonderful person." ”

"Where can a concubine deserve such praise from the eldest princess, it's just a little filial piety." It seems that this eldest princess is indeed a good person to get along with, and I thought she would hold a shelf, but I didn't think that she would be more friendly to Hua Ying.

The queen on the side didn't think so, she always felt that the eldest princess was not close to herself because of the queen mother, but she didn't know how to find the reason from herself, here said that the eldest princess Duanjing had been gone for many years, how could she remember the love of those words or two, at this time, she should talk generously, instead of thinking of a way to pat herself, but if the queen knew this, she would not continue to say this: "The eldest princess and Concubine Yun's sister hit it off at first sight, as if they had known each other before, and they had such a fate, You should also be more close. ”

The meaning of these words is not that the eldest princess is closer to other concubines than other imperial sisters-in-law, the eldest princess obviously heard it, it seems that she did not expect her imperial sister-in-law to be so cautious, obviously dissatisfied with this, but the expression on her face pretended to be virtuous and generous, and she heard a sense of irony in her ears when she said it, and she didn't know who it was for, anyway, Duanjing felt uncomfortable in her heart when she heard it: "What the imperial sister-in-law said is right, I have always heard the imperial concubine praise Concubine Yun Niangniang, This princess has always wanted to make friends with Concubine Yun. ”

After saying these words deliberately, the eldest princess Duanjing couldn't help but sigh in her heart, no wonder her imperial mother didn't like the queen, wasn't it just a trivial matter, she felt that it threatened her status, she always felt that she was a queen, and everyone needed to hold her, but unfortunately this eldest princess didn't like to wear a false mask like this, and she had to pretend to be indifferent.

"Then this time the eldest princess will have to stay for a few more days, and the concubine will also entertain the eldest princess, if you like Concubine Yun's sister, you can go to Jingyang Palace to talk to her more, but Concubine Yun's sister is still pregnant now, and she may not be able to take care of her." These words seem to be the queen showing her generous side, but in fact, she is just persuading the eldest princess to go to Hua Ying less, and she is her real imperial sister-in-law.

"The imperial sister-in-law said so, that Duanjing naturally will not refuse, and when she is free, she will invite Concubine Yun to come to Cining Palace, so that the three of them can also make the imperial mother more lively, the imperial concubine said yes?" The eldest princess is really smiling, she heard the queen's meaning, and she didn't want to follow her thoughts, after all, he was the emperor's sister, and the queen, as the lord of the six palaces, not only did not take care of her sister-in-law, but also pushed her to others, but there was no such reason.

The Queen Mother also understands the eldest princess in the end, the queen is now full-fledged, the queen mother does not want her to have irreconcilable contradictions with the queen, although the queen mother does not look down on the queen, but she can't ask her daughter to be the same as herself: "Then call your sister-in-law and Concubine Yun to rub pai gow together another day." ”

"The Queen Mother still likes to play with these things, but I didn't know before." Concubine Xiu laughed and joked, as if she didn't see the atmosphere between them.

"It's just to pass the time, Concubine Xiu can also come along."

"No need, the sixth elder brother has learned to climb in the past few days, and the concubine wants to accompany the sixth elder brother all the time, I'm afraid I won't be able to make up the time to accompany the queen mother, but it's enough to have the queen mother and the concubine Yun's sister, the concubine is clumsy, I'm afraid that I won't be able to accompany the queen mother."

"This Xiufei sister is modest, although she takes care of the sixth elder brother every day, but ah, this palace belongs to Xiufei's sister who is well-informed, which is also something that everyone knows." Seeing that Concubine Xiu did not forget to leave an image of a loving mother in front of the Queen Mother and the eldest princess, Concubine Jiang said.

The eldest brother was injured for no reason, not to mention that he broke his arm, and he was suspicious of the emperor, maybe he still suspected that the eldest brother was under his own command, at this time, Concubine Jiang's heart, didn't she just want to find someone to be angry, in the end, she was also anxious, and drove the eldest brother to train the horse, otherwise there might not be such a thing, obviously Concubine Xiu also grasped this, she smiled calmly: "Concubine Jiang is also a person with children, and naturally knows that the health of children is first-class, whether it is physical strength or psychological growth." , it should be like this, so the concubine has to accompany the sixth elder brother all the time, but is Concubine Jiang's sister in a hurry about the eldest brother's thoughts? I heard that my eldest brother can't move his hands freely now. ”

These words almost pointed to Concubine Jiang's nose and said, it is because Concubine Jiang did not teach well and forced the eldest brother to compete for favor in front of the emperor, so it led to the current situation, Concubine Jiang naturally will not allow people to say this about herself and the eldest brother, but this is Cining Palace, even the queen mother heard the meaning of Concubine Xiu, but after all, she didn't say it explicitly, and Concubine Jiang didn't dare to make a mistake here, so she suppressed the anger in her heart and said: "Since this palace helped the emperor raise the first adult prince, it naturally has its own godchild skills, maybe Concubine Xiu can't understand, After all, the biological mother of the sixth elder brother is still a nobleman. ”

Do you think this will hit her in the heart? Concubine Xiu disdains it in her heart, but not everyone has the same thoughts as her: "The biological mother and adoptive mother, as long as she is good to the child, she is a good mother, although the emperor is not born to the queen mother, the queen mother treats the emperor well, we all look at it, not to mention that the eldest princess also has a deep relationship with the emperor's brother and sister." ”

As soon as it came to the emperor and the queen mother, Concubine Jiang really didn't know what she was talking about, in fact, he shouldn't have mentioned biological or adoptive support, the children in this palace, if they can grow up under the knees of their own mother, it will already be a blessing, and even the queen does not have her own biological son: "Sister Xiufei is right, as long as she can help the emperor extend the heirs and raise the princess, she is a blessed person." ”

"Don't worry if you don't have children, this kind of thing is predestined." The Queen Mother seemed to remember something, and added: "Your Majesty, there is a shortage of confidants now, as long as you serve the emperor well, you will all be good." ”

This tone is obviously for everyone to hear, so that they can serve the emperor in the harem with peace of mind, don't always think about what they don't have, the queen took the lead in standing up and bent her knees slightly and said: "The concubines follow the teachings of the queen mother." ”

"Sit down, the mourning family is not here to teach you today, it's not too early, the mourning family continues to talk to the eldest princess, and you will go back to the palaces, by the way, Ning Guiren stays."

Other people also know more or less that Ning Guiren has done the Queen Mother a great favor this time, only Hua Ying and the others are the same as Ming Spiegel in their hearts, Ning Guiren is definitely not like the Queen Mother thinks, continue to think about the Queen Mother, otherwise they will not do what Xuan promised repeatedly, no matter whether that thing is true or not, the reason why Ning Guiren and Guiren do this must be for themselves.

Not long after returning to Jingyang Palace, there was another shocking but regrettable news from the people.

"Niangniang, Yongshou Palace just came to report, saying that Xuan's promise is about to fail, Niangniang wants to go and see?"

"What?"

Hua Ying's heart was shocked, and she immediately said, "What do you mean it's not good?" How can a good person suddenly become like this? ”

"This slave doesn't know very well, but I heard that Xuan of Yongshou Palace promised to vomit a mouthful of blood today, and let the imperial doctor come to see it, only to say that Xuan's promise has been exhausted, and the emperor seems to have been there, and he left after a glance, and now he is almost gone, and no other concubines are willing to go over, Yinlan of Yongshou Palace knows that Niangniang is kind, so she came to ask Niangniang."
