"How dare I ask the Empress Dowager about the guilt?" Emperor Xuan said with a smile, "There is obviously something strange about last night's birthday banquet, and the Empress Dowager is a very smart person, so she must have seen it at a glance." ”

"What's the strange way, Your Majesty might as well talk to the mourning family?" The Queen Mother restrained her smile, "Your Majesty, although Concubine Yun is called a concubine, in this harem, she is just the name of a queen, and she is actually the same as the queen." It's just that the mourning family has looked at it carefully over the years, her ability is good, and the harem is only orderly under her management, and there is no chaos, but the means are very spicy, soft and jealous, but this character can't afford the name of the mother of a country, and ask you, what are you going to do? This queen has been vacant for many years, who do you want to be the queen in your heart? The prince is the foundation of a country, what are your plans in your heart for the prince's candidate?"

"I'm really in the prime of life, and it's a little earlier to make a prince. Emperor Xuan was silent for a moment and said, "The position of this queen, logically speaking, in terms of qualifications, only Yun Guifei can be competent, but I have not issued this holy decree after the seal, which is also due to my consideration." If she is made the queen, I am afraid that the position of the crown prince can only belong to the king of Qin, but the child of the king of Qin, although he is smart, is not enough to have the courage of an emperor, and I am also very headache!"

"It's rare that Your Majesty is willing to say something from the heart of the mourning family. The Queen Mother sighed and said, "King Qin has been growing up under Yun Guifei, and there is no shortage of little wisdom, but there is a lack of great wisdom. The mourning family is fond of King Qi, what does Your Majesty think?"

"King Qi, this kid is good, he has military exploits, wisdom, courage, skill, and the demeanor of the past, but he is ...... King Qi was brought up by the Yu family, and I was worried that he would repeat the mistakes of the first prince, and the first prince I didn't have high hopes, but the result made me extremely disappointed!"

"It's been ten years, and it's time for Your Majesty to come out. The Queen Mother sighed and said, "Besides, King Qi was also brought up by the mourning family, can't Your Majesty believe the mourning family?"

"Erchen didn't dare. Emperor Xuan said, "But there is another candidate in Erchen's heart, King Yu." ”

"Old Seven?" The Queen Mother was surprised, whether it was a courtier or a harem, everyone's eyes were focused on King Qin and King Qi, these two genius princes were known as the best heirs to the throne, but who would have thought that His Majesty's favorite person was actually Liu Liuyu, the seventh prince who was only fifteen years old and no one else cared about?

The qualifications of these seven princes are average, and their mother is just a concubine so far, so no matter what, it will not be the turn of this old seven!

"Your Majesty has already decided?" asked the Queen Mother with a frown.

"I just have this idea in my heart, but I can't be sure yet, this King Yu is still young, and his ability needs to be examined again. However, although he is young, he has a mellow character and a big heart, and only if he succeeds to the throne in the future, can all my sons be saved. ”

"It turns out that His Majesty is planning to do this, they are all parents, and they are all thinking about their children!" The Queen Mother sighed, "King Yu's conduct is indeed mellow and upright, and he treats his brothers with respect and love, if he succeeds to the throne, he can naturally save the lives and wealth of his brothers, but after all, this throne still depends on ability, and he can't hand over the country to an emperor who is not capable enough and mellow!"

"I understand, the old seven years are still young, the ability can be cultivated, I am also in the prime of life, I am confident that I can cultivate a qualified emperor!" Emperor Xuan smiled confidently, "I have been thinking about this matter for a long time, and today I told the queen mother all about it, and I also want to hear the queen mother's opinion." ”

"Since you have decided, the mourning family has no opinion, you have your considerations, this country is your country, this son is also your son, who you want to pass on this country to, it was originally up to you to say. The Queen Mother said, "It's just that if you want to help Lao Qi ascend to the throne, you must have some means to help him establish his authority, and first give his mother a place to the concubine." ”

"The courtiers mentioned this matter several times, but they were all suppressed by me. Emperor Xuan said, "If it is established, it must be Yun Guifei, Yun Guifei has been in charge of the harem for many years, and there has been no major mistake......

The Queen Mother's eyes narrowed and asked, "Could it be that it was you who ...... last night?"

Emperor Xuan smiled: "That's why I came to ask the queen mother for sin." ”

"That's it. The Queen Mother waved her hand, "You are the emperor of Northern Xia, what to do, you can think about it yourself, even if it is the mourning family, it is just your subjects, if it is really for the sake of the Northern Xia country, what should you do, just do it." ”

"Having said that, the sons are still unfilial!" Emperor Xuan said, "The queen mother can understand, and the sons are very grateful." ”

"It's not early, Your Majesty go back and rest, Ming'er has to go to court early!"

"The minister retired first. Emperor Xuan got up and left.

The Queen Mother looked at Emperor Xuan's back, and the once high-spirited emperor was now slightly rickety, but his mind was so deep that even she, a mother, couldn't detect it.

Is she really old?

She glanced out the window and asked, "Has the snow stopped outside?"

"No," replied the maid, "the snow is still heavy outside, and I'm afraid it will fall until tomorrow morning." ”

Qing Ling found out in time, and the damage to this Qiushui Garden was not very serious, but it was just that the corner of the house where Bai Ling lived was burned down, and there was no need to go outside to live for two days.

However, since Liu Xu spoke, Mo Ziyu still cleaned up and went to Nuanquan Palace to live for two days, and he could also try to be quiet.

This year's snow is heavy, and this Warm Spring Palace is on the mountain, so it is not very easy to walk along the way.

"What does the girl think of the matter with the third lady?" asked Lu Qiao, "Speaking of which, this third lady is quite pitiful, I thought I was pregnant, and the joy can be seen by anyone with two eyes." Later, he had a miscarriage, and the whole person was not as full of spring breeze as before, and his eyes were full of sadness, which made him feel distressed. Now she has to tell her that she is not pregnant, everything is fake, not to mention the fake, and that all this is a game set up by herself, and who can stand it! I don't know who designed all this, which is also too vicious. ”

"Who knows!" Mo Ziyu said lightly, "If you have weaknesses, you will be taken advantage of, and the third lady was smooth sailing in King Qi's mansion before, but now that she has to reflect on it." ”

"But I also believe that justice is in the hearts of the people, and the prince will return the third lady to her innocence, just as the prince will definitely return the girl's innocence. Lu Qiao said, "I have heard of this warm spring palace before, even the princess is afraid that she has not been there a few times! It is said that the hot spring water in there is good, not only after soaking, but also the skin is delicate, but also can change the old and rejuvenated! There are also many nobles in the palace who like to go to the palace, and that Yun Guifei likes it very much." It is said that after the concubine ran to the hot springs, her skin was like congealed fat, and she was fascinated by His Majesty at once!"

"You know a lot of things!" Qing Ling said with a smile, "Concubine Yun Guifei favored the harem back then, but she never came to the Warm Spring Palace because she was allergic to hot spring water. ”

"How do you know about these palace things?" Mo Ziyu smiled, "I haven't heard of it!"

"Who doesn't have one or two eyeliners in the palace. Qing Ling said, "There are a lot of things that I have inquired about, there are no impermeable walls, things in the palace, real and fake, true and false, and the outside knows more or less." But if it's really fake, who knows, it's just adding oil and vinegar, and it's spreading a wave. Some things are more and more evil, and some things are more and more mysterious, and no one cares if it's true or not. ”

As he was talking, the carriage stopped, Lu Qiao lifted the curtain and asked, and the guards outside replied: "I met other people's carriages going up the mountain in front, we have to wait for them to go up the mountain first, we are afraid to wait." ”

"It doesn't matter. Mo Ziyu said, "But whose house is ahead?"

"It's Shangguan's family. ”

"Shangguan Yu'er?" Mo Ziyu lifted the curtain and glanced ahead, "Miss Shangguan's marriage with King Qin is a certainty, and it seems that it will be in the future." ”

Fleur has been planning for so long, and she has exhausted all her means, but she still hasn't become a princess in the end. Is she just willing to give up the position of princess to others? Or will she deal with Shangguan Yu'er like she did with herself? Shangguan Yu'er is gentle and lovely, but will she be her opponent?

Now that Zhao Ling married the Shangguan family, his strength has increased greatly. If something happens to Shangguan Yu'er, there will inevitably be a rift between him and Prime Minister Shangguan, which will definitely be beneficial to Liu Xu.

If Fu Rui really has such a means, I am afraid that it will help Liu Xu a lot.

Mo Ziyu was full of worries in her heart, thinking of Shangguan Yu'er's face, she couldn't bear it in her heart, she really didn't want her to follow in her footsteps.

"This road is the Hot Spring Palace, I didn't expect to meet Miss Shangguan. Lu Qiao said, "Girl, didn't you hit Miss Shangguan at first sight before? ”

Qingling smiled faintly: "Now that the wedding date between Miss Shangguan and King Qin has been set, the girl doesn't have to force herself." ”

Mo Ziyu sighed lightly: "I have a sense of proportion in me, it's okay, go up the mountain." ”

After a while, Mo Ziyu also came up the mountain, and just got off the carriage, he saw Shangguan Yu'er waiting for him in the snow. The maid on the side was holding an oil-paper umbrella, her smile was like a flower, her eyes were gentle like water, and she said with a smile: "I just heard that you have also come to this hot spring palace, and I am very happy in my heart, so I am waiting here early, just looking forward to meeting you earlier and talking for a while." ”

Mo Ziyu paused for a moment, and hurriedly got out of the carriage: "I didn't expect you to wait for me here, I'm really flattered! This is the tuyere, go and rest inside, if you are infected with the wind and cold, what should I do!"

As she spoke, she hurriedly took Shangguan Yu'er's hand, and the two walked towards the hot spring palace together.

Shangguan Yu'er said with a smile: "Since we met in the Lingyin Temple last time, we haven't had a deep chat, and since we have this opportunity today, we will definitely have a good chat." By the way, after I went back, I read a few poems and a few articles you wrote, and I am indeed very talented and stylish. The poems I made are more than gorgeous, but they are missing some of the bones, and after reading your poems, I only feel so admired, and I hate to see you late!"

"The poems and articles I wrote are all nonsense, and they don't count. I wonder where Miss Shangguan read what I wrote?" Mo Ziyu asked with a smile.

"Mr. Li took what you wrote as an example for the students to circulate, and the dress spread. I'm afraid that even you don't know that you are now a famous talented woman in everyone's eyes!" Shangguan Yu'er smiled, "By the way, I got a poetry club in my spare time, and on the twenty-seventh day, I got a party in the Plum Garden, you must come to participate in it, and they all want to see what this talented woman looks like!"
