Li Sui still didn't say anything, "Does the concubine already have a suitable candidate?" ”

"Since the emperor asked, the mother concubine thinks that Concubine Xin is good, virtuous and virtuous, since entering the palace, there has never been any major mistakes, and in the harem, Concubine Xin has the highest position, and she has been with you for the longest time in the palace."

The imperial concubine looked at Li Sui eagerly, hoping that he could give some advice,

Li Sui was still expressionless, "Mother, what about the third thing you want to say?" ”?“ The third thing, today Mu Shangshu found the mourning family and told the mourning family that his granddaughter was twenty-eight years old and wanted to choose a good son-in-law, but

What about this girl, I don't know when I saw the emperor once, I wanted to marry the emperor in my heart, Mu Shangshu came to propose marriage to the mourning family today, I don't know if the emperor can agree to enter the harem. ”

The imperial concubine said, and finally showed a smile on her face, "The mourning family has nothing to do today, so I asked Mu Shangshu to bring his granddaughter into the palace to see each other, this little girl looks thoughtful, eyebrows and eyes, graceful figure, willow thin waist, walks up and down Tingting, a good woman with a good hand, and has read a few books, and knows some words, which can be regarded as knowing books and etiquette,"

"If the emperor likes it, he will be included in the harem and fill in the grandson of the mourning family as soon as possible. That Mu Shangshu's granddaughter is a well-born woman at first glance, and she is very blessed. ”

Li Sui lowered his head, a trace of embarrassment flashed in his expression, "Mother, Erchen doesn't want to accept people in the harem for the time being, Erchen feels that now is not the time,"

The imperial concubine glanced at Li Sui, the emperors of all dynasties, I can't wait to be a woman, but if there is a little bit of posture, I will receive my own harem to be a concubine for myself, this Li Sui is good, and those who are sent to the door must be pushed out, there are three thousand beauties in this harem, there have been since ancient times, and they have been emperors for eight or nine years, but there are only a dozen women in the harem.

How can there be only a dozen women in their twenties?

"Your Majesty, the first emperor is an infatuated man, there are still fifty or sixty people in the harem, and these dozen or so women don't look like a harem. The mourning family said, Mu Shangshu's granddaughter, you still have to think about it, which is also conducive to the harmony of the monarch and the minister. ”

What is the harmony of monarchs and ministers, for the harmony of monarchs and ministers, I don't know how many things I don't want to do,

"Back to the mother's concubine, the mother's concubine's words, the son-in-law will keep in mind, Mu Shangshu's granddaughter will not consider it, the twenty-eighth year is a good year, and Zaize is a good son-in-law, get married."

As soon as the imperial concubine saw that she had said that she was dead, she no longer pestered, "But what does the emperor think of this matter after the establishment?" ”

Li Sui let out a long sigh and ordered the prince who was waiting outside the door, "You call all the people who changed their names." ”

The prince didn't dare to slack off, and walked briskly outside the palace like a gust of wind,

After a while, Concubine Xin came with a smile, followed by the personal palace maid and the personal eunuch Zhu Chen,

Concubine Xin knew that today the imperial concubine was going to talk to the emperor about the future, and she also knew that the imperial concubine would recommend herself as a candidate for the future queen in front of the emperor.

Since the imperial concubine and the emperor passed themselves to the palace of the imperial concubine together, it means that the imperial concubine and the emperor should discuss the matter of the queen with themselves, since they discussed with themselves, the candidate must be themselves, if the candidate is someone else, how can he come to him?

Therefore, Concubine Xin's heart was very happy, and when she entered the palace, she quickly and diligently kowtowed to the imperial concubine and the emperor to greet her, in order to show her awe and politeness.

"The concubines participate in the Holy Mother of the Imperial Concubine, see the emperor."

When the imperial concubine saw Concubine Xin, she immediately smiled, "Concubine Xin, get up, you don't have to make this big salute, just sit aside,"

Concubine Xin thanked the imperial concubine for giving her a seat, and sat down gently at the emperor's subordinate position.

Li Sui didn't look at Concubine Xin either, but asked, "Concubine Xin, just now the mother concubine and I mentioned the matter of the queen, the mother concubine said that you are virtuous and virtuous, and I want to make you the queen, what do you think?" ”

Concubine Xin looked at Li Sui's gloomy face, and her words were cold, as if she was reluctant to make herself the queen, so she quickly stood up and knelt down in the center, "Your Majesty, it is a major event in the harem to establish the queen, and the concubines are not talented, it all depends on the emperor." ”

Li Sui raised his head, a cold light shot out of his eyes, "I'm asking you, do you think you are worthy of being a queen?" ”

No matter how stupid Concubine Xin is, she can see Li Sui's anger,

"Although the concubines strive to be diligent and strive to maintain the unity of the harem sisters, after all, they are only shallow in their studies, their abilities are limited, and there are still many places to do that the emperor is not very satisfied, and the concubines will work hard in the future."

"For example, the sisters in the harem now slander and suspect each other, and some even use the means expressly forbidden in the palace in order to realize their own selfish interests, these things are all related to the concubines, and they are all because the concubines are not very conscientious, so they failed to find out and dissuade them in time."

The imperial concubine shook her head, "Concubine Xin, how can these things have anything to do with you, and it wasn't you who instigated the nobles, it was she who did it herself." ”

Li Sui said coldly: "In all the words of Concubine Xin just now, she said the right thing, that is, these things that have just happened are related to you. ”

"In that case, don't let me ask them all here, you can tell the imperial concubine yourself."

Concubine Xin "chuckled" in her heart, but her face was full of doubts, "Your Majesty, the concubines are stupid, I don't know what the emperor wants the concubines to say to the Holy Mother." "First Literature

Li Sui finally raised his eyes and stared at Concubine Xin, "Okay, if you don't say it, let the princess tell you,"

When the prince heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward, "Back to the imperial concubine, back to the emperor, the old slave found out that the embroidery on the clothes used by the villain of the witch Gu is Su embroidery, in this harem, the concubines who can use this kind of skill are only Concubine Xin Niangniang and Xi Concubine Niangniang,"

When the imperial concubine heard this, she looked at Li Sui with a puzzled face, and then at Concubine Xin,

Concubine Xin's face was pale, it turned out that the emperor wanted to let her tell about it, she knelt there, playing with the handkerchief with both hands, "The emperor asked the prince to investigate this, what can it say?" On the surface, the concubines and Xi concubines can do Su embroidery, but who knows that there are still those people who will not say it secretly. ”

The imperial concubine looked at Li Sui, and her expression became more and more serious, "Princess, those things that have no shadow, don't talk nonsense, don't disturb the rare purity of the harem,"

The prince hurriedly leaned down, "Go back to the imperial concubine, the old slave doesn't dare." The old slave also found out that the cloth used to make the witch Gu is the silk cloth of Suzhou and Hangzhou, this kind of silk cloth process is complicated, only in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and in our harem, only Concubine Xin's maiden family is in the land of Suzhou and Hangzhou, this kind of silk cloth will only be available in Concubine Xin's palace. ”

Concubine Xin's face was as white as paper, and she looked at Wang Gonggong viciously, "Wang Gonggong, what you said doesn't seem to be accurate, in this harem, I'm not the only one who will use Su Hang's silk cloth, right?" The imperial concubine and the emperor are also using it,"

When the imperial concubine heard this, she immediately became angry, "Bold Concubine Xin, are you insinuating that the mourning family and the emperor are disturbing the harem?" ”

Concubine Xin was so frightened that she hurriedly kowtowed, "Back to the Holy Mother of the Imperial Concubine, the concubine has no such intention, the concubine means that no one got silk cloth from the imperial concubine or the emperor to frame the concubine?" What's more, the words on the witch Gu's body are indeed not the handwriting of the concubine,"

The imperial concubine's brows furrowed slightly, what was going on? She glanced at Li Sui complainingly, she just said that she wanted to set up a queen, if you don't want to, you can say that you don't want to, why do you have to make so many things?

Li Sui was silent, picked up the tea bowl in front of him, and took a sip of tea,

The prince continued: "The old slave has found a person,"

After speaking, he waved his hand to the door, and a scholar in a coarse cloth shirt stepped into the threshold, "The grass people knock to see the imperial concubine, knock to see the emperor,"

Concubine Xin turned around and saw someone coming, and immediately felt dizzy, why did he come?

The imperial concubine said slowly: "If you have anything you want to say to the mourning family and the emperor, come quickly." ”

The man got up and said, "Because the grass people have read some books, they write family letters for the villagers in the township, and they eat together, and after a long time, the grass people have developed a skill, that is, they can imitate anyone's font, as long as I can see what I have written, and then copy it, within three days, the grass people can write exactly the same handwriting as this person." ”

"A few days ago, a father-in-law found the grass people and wrote a few words for a nobleman, but the words were written on a piece of silk cloth, and the grass people did not think so, but the words that let the grass people write were curses for the current imperial concubine. It wasn't until the prince found the grass people that the grass people felt a little more at ease. ”

The prince said: "Do you see that there is someone in this hall who asks you to write?" ”

The scholar looked up,

The scholar was very pedantic, and he carefully looked at the father-in-law and the palace maid in the hall, but when he saw a father-in-law who lowered his face, he leaned up and tilted his head to look at him, and looked at his face with great difficulty.

Concubine Xin's personal eunuch Zhu Chen pressed his head hard, refusing to lift it, and trembling all over his body.

Zhu Chen's face was already covered with beads of sweat, his eyes were full of begging, the scholar saw Zhu Chen's face clearly, and immediately widened his eyes, "Back to the imperial concubine, back to the emperor, it's this father-in-law, this father-in-law told me that if I tell outsiders about writing for others, I will be broken into pieces, so I took his silver taels and ran away quickly, afraid that he would regret it and come to kill me again." ”

Li Sui glanced at the scholar coldly, "Do you still remember those words?" ”

The scholar was so frightened that he hurriedly leaned down and kowtowed vigorously on the ground, "Go back to the emperor, the grass people remember." ”

"Then you can write it again in front of the imperial concubine and me."

When the scholar heard this, he kowtowed like pounding rice and said: "Your Majesty, you can spare the grass people, the grass people will never dare again, and promise to make only this one mistake, in the future, the grass people will definitely write family letters for people in peace, and no longer write these unclean things." ”

Li Sui looked at the imperial concubine, "Mother concubine, do you want to see his ability?" ”

The imperial concubine ordered: "You can write it, and the mourning family will forgive you for your innocence." ”

The scholar dared to pick up the pen and write the words on the prepared paper.

After the scholar wrote it one by one, the princess's personal maid brought the piece of paper to the princess to see, and the princess only glanced at it.

"Smack!" With a bang, the case was slapped!

That Zhu Chen was so frightened that he knelt down and sat down on the ground, and Concubine Xin was already scared like chaff, trembling, and beads of sweat the size of beans dripped down her face.
