In comparison, the girl of the Shi family is much more petty.

However, even if the people of the Shi family are excellent, the queen will not be chosen, after all, the matter of the Shi family and Song Xi forcing the palace to rebel is still clear, although the Shi family has not been cut off, but it is also because of the position where Shi Yuan is located, and there is no one to replace him for the time being.

However, fortunately, Enke will be opened next year, and a group of outstanding young people will be selected to fill some of the vacancies that have been cleared before.

"Second Young Lady Gu's words, this palace has listened to it, and this palace will think about it carefully." The queen thought that this matter still had to be discussed with the emperor, and it was not good for her to make her own decisions.

After all, the prince's choice of concubine is a big deal, and he can't be sloppy.

"However, the prince's lifelong event is a royal family affair, but also a state affair, in addition to the main concubine, there are also side concubines who should be decided earlier, if the mother can't make a decision for a while, wait until the crisis at the border is lifted, a general election can be held, so many ladies in Beijing, there are always a few to elect."

Qin Niang's suggestion can almost be regarded as the most traditional suggestion, since ancient times, the crown prince has to choose concubines from the major eunuchs in Beijing, not only to choose the docile temperament, but also to balance the court.

It's really head-scratching to think about.

Fortunately, there is no one else between her and Gu Chen, otherwise, I don't know when the fight will end this day.

"Let's settle down the concubine first, and then talk about the rest." The queen sighed, "I don't think my emperor may want to live in a group of wives and concubines in the three palaces and six courts, he, he can't finish the affairs in the court, and if he turns back to the backyard to fight, I think he will be choked enough." ”

Qin Niang pursed her lips and smiled: "But the prince has to shoulder the mission of the royal branch, and there can't be only one wife in the harem." ”

Gu Chen couldn't do it, he even married Tang Wan halfway through the door, and Gu Chen was just a courtier, and there was so much helplessness, and Song Yu was the next successor of the royal family, how could he only have one wife?

Even if he wanted to, these ministers of the court would not agree.

Let's see, especially those old stubborn, if the prince drags on for another two years and does not marry a wife or a side concubine, I am afraid that those old ministers will die in the main hall and ask the prince to fill the harem with death advice, thinking that the royal branch has been scattered.

"Alas, this palace also has a headache, forget it, let's not talk about this today, it's very annoying, this palace recently got a new chess book, I have heard that Mrs. Gu Er has a lot of research on chess, so it's better to give it to Mrs. Gu Ershao." So saying, she summoned someone to come in and go to find the chess book.

After Qin Niang thanked her, she took the chess book, and her eyes immediately lit up: "This is a lost and lost score, the courtiers have been looking for a long time and have not found it, but they didn't expect to be found by the mother, you know, if you take it out, I'm afraid it will be robbed." ”

The queen smiled and said: "It's good that Second Young Lady Gu likes it, this palace doesn't have any research on chess skills, and it's a waste to put it here in this palace, so it's better to let Second Young Lady Gu take it back and study it well." ”

Hearing this, Qin Niang got up again and thanked her.

The two chatted about two more teas, and the queen ordered someone to send Qin Niang out of the palace.

"Miss, what did the queen mother talk to you about? After talking for so long, the slave and maid sat here and almost fell asleep. Qiu Tao was guarding in the carriage outside the palace gate, and when she saw Qin Niang coming out at this moment, her originally sleepy appearance immediately became energetic.

"It's nothing more than those two things, what else can we talk about." Qin Niang pursed her lips and told the coachman to go home.

Qiu Tao looked at Qin Niang in surprise and said, "The queen won't really ask you to decide on the crown princess for her, right?" ”

This candidate for the crown princess is not trivial, how can others be allowed to interfere at will?

Although she is a little girl who doesn't understand, she can also imagine that if a royal person wants to marry a daughter-in-law, it is not only necessary to consider the family background and temperament, since ancient times, those imperial techniques are one of the most difficult to understand, she doesn't have to think about it, as a royal person, who to marry or not is not up to her own decision.

"I just gave her a choice for her reference, whether or not to choose is their royal family's own business, I don't care." If it weren't for the last time she entered the palace, the queen implied that she had ruined the prince's marriage and poached the prince's favorite girl, for fear that the queen would settle accounts after the autumn, she wouldn't have bothered to care about this matter.

"Oh." Qiu Tao nodded, not very concerned, and then changed the topic, "Liuying came to visit just now, and said that the eldest girl next to the third girl of the Shi family personally went to Rongguo Houfu to ask for medicine, and originally thought that she would be sneered at, but no, the sixth girl Rongliu gave her the medicine very easily." ”

The maid still couldn't believe it before she left the Rongguo Mansion, she thought that she would be humiliated for a while when she went to ask for medicine, but she didn't expect to get the medicine so easily.

Don't say she doesn't believe it, even Qiu Tao is a little unbelievable.

"Miss Rong Sixth is a smart person, since Miss Shi San has admitted defeat, why should she be a villain in vain? She generously gave the medicine to the other party, and she could also get a good reputation, I believe that many people have seen the maid when she entered the Rongguo Hou Mansion, and she came out with the medicine in her hand, and she must have been seen by some people with a heart. ”

In this case, if Rong Liu deliberately embarrassed her, it would seem that he was a little angry.

How badly her reputation was slandered before, the more amiable she was at this time, the more she could compare Shi Sanshang's appearance.

The world is accustomed to sympathizing with the weak, and the other party is showing weakness, if she still chases and beats hard, it makes people say that she is not broad-minded enough, and she is mean and will be repaid.

I have to say that although this Rongliu girl has traveled since she was a child, she is much more generous than those well-bred boudoir girls.

"But, miss, is the third girl Shi willing?" Qiu Tao asked, "The slave maid tasted a little grievance from her act of seeking medicine, I heard that there were a lot of cockroaches and insects in Shifu, and the whole Shifu was about to become a mess." ”

Qin Niang tugged at the corners of her lips: "Then it's no wonder that she lowered her head and went to ask Rong Liu for medicine, if she didn't go, I'm afraid that Lord Shi wouldn't let her go." ”

After all, a girl who is not beneficial to the family is not uncommon in the family, let alone a girl who spends the family's money and causes a lot of trouble.

That could have been a tragic end.

"But, isn't that Shi San girl in collusion with that cloth girl? How could these things get into Shifu? Qiu Tao asked puzzledly, "Is it possible, Miss Bu is backwater?" Then the two of them colluded, did it mean the Shi family, or did the third girl Shi mean herself? ”

If Shi Rong meant it, it was to seek skin with the tiger, and the bridge was demolished after crossing the river, so it was normal for Shifu to enter those things.

However, if it is the meaning of the entire Shi family, it will be different, that old guy from Ishihara will not stand stupidly and be beaten, if someone dares to cross the river and tear down the bridge, he will definitely turn the other party upside down with his backhand.

"It should be Miss Shisan's own intention, if the entire Shi family wants to collude with the Miao people, then they will never be crossed the river and demolished the bridge so easily." Qin Niang thought, at least Ishihara had to negotiate the terms with the other party, and let the other party pay something first.

Otherwise, he was swept away and killed so easily, then wouldn't he have been in vain all these years of immersion in officialdom?

Only a little girl like Shi Rong who has never been in the world can do such a stupid thing.

"Isn't that the cloth girl afraid that Miss Shi San will shake her out?" Qiu Tao doesn't understand, this is obviously not the time when the fish is dead and the net is broken, how can the cloth girl not offend Shi Rong at this time.

"I said that you are simple-minded, that Shi San girl looks like a brainless person, and she has been used as a gunman, if she shouts out and says that it is Bu Shuyuan who instructed her, you say, who believes it?" Qin Niang nodded on her head angrily, "When Bu Shuyuan colluded with her, she definitely didn't reveal her identity." ”

Therefore, Shi Rong didn't know much about her, only knew that she was a distant relative of the Gu family, or when she was angry that Rong Xi took away her opportunity, she complained to Bu Shuyuan a few words, and Bu Shuyuan took the opportunity to give her some ideas.

However, this can be purely regarded as the friendship between the two girls' families, and Shi Rong didn't realize that he was being used from beginning to end.

Only in this way will Bu Shuyuan not be afraid that Shi Rong will bite her back.

"Then, didn't you say that you wanted to take the opportunity to pull the Shi family off the horse? But if Lord Ruoshi didn't know at all and didn't participate, then if he abandoned this daughter and broke his tail to survive, wouldn't he be able to stand well in the capital? "Qiu Tao has listened to Qin Niang's analysis of the court situation a lot over the years, and she also has some insights.

"The prince won't give him this chance." Qin Niang tugged at the corners of her lips and sneered, "Shi Rong said that she is also the daughter of the Shi family, in a wealthy mansion like this, it has always been a matter of both glory and loss, if the prince says that the entire Shi family is involved, he is the entire Shi family involved." ”

At this time, he was grabbed by the pigtails, and he Ishihara just said that there was no way to remedy it.

Song Yu wanted to deal with him, it was as easy as a snap.

At this time, the old house of the Gu family arrived.

These days, because of such a big thing that happened in the old house that night, Qin Niang would come back every day to take a look, say hello to the old man, and pick up her daughter by the way.

There is no way, she has so many things that she can't get rid of, if she takes her with her, it is really inconvenient, only by putting her in the Gu family, she can rest assured.

"Second young lady, it's terrible, go in and take a look, that cloth girl is not good." As soon as Qin Niang got out of the carriage, the housekeeper of the old mansion greeted her and said eagerly.

Qin Niang frowned: "What do you mean it's bad?" What's wrong with her? Didn't she go out last year? ”

Why is it bad all of a sudden?

She didn't believe that she really let herself be bitten by a poisonous snake in order to perform a bitter trick, and she had to take her life to act.

"The old slave didn't know what was going on, and the old man asked people to take a look at her, only to find that she was lying in the yard, already dying." After the old housekeeper of the Gu family finished speaking, he subconsciously wiped the sweat on his forehead.

Qin Niang frowned, if this Bu Shuyuan died in the Gu family, then it would be unclear.
