Chapter 25
On the way into the palace, Xiao Dezi and Mo Jin introduced some situations in the palace.
For example, in addition to the emperor and queen mother, there is also a concubine in the palace.
Concubine Rou is now the most famous concubine, of course, there is now another Hunan concubine, that is, Mo Jin.
The rest are nobles and below.
There are no less than 30 nobles alone, and there are countless others.
Mo Jin couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This emperor's physical strength is really good, isn't he afraid of exhaustion and death?
Of course, she only dared to say it in her heart.
After entering the palace, Xiao Dezi took Mo Jin directly to Guangyun Palace.
"Niangniang, you rest first, the emperor is still dealing with things in the imperial study, and he will come over after a while."
Mo Jin nodded, for the so-called emperor, she was a little looking forward to seeing him, but she didn't want to see him either.
If this emperor is a handsome guy, maybe she will consider An An to be her concubine Xiang, but if she is an old man in her forties and fifties, then she will definitely run away, and she will not do this kind of loss-making business.
Not long after Xiao Dezi left, the Mojin stool was not yet hot, and someone came to spread the word that the Queen Mother had summoned him.
To see the nominal future mother-in-law, Mo Jin was naturally a little nervous, and left Xiaobai in Guangyun Palace, so he followed the maid to the Queen Mother's Palace.
Because Mo Jin had just entered the palace, there was no one to wait in her palace.
Mo Jin happily stepped into the queen mother's bedroom, and saluted her according to what she had seen on TV, "The concubine sees the queen mother, and the queen mother is a thousand years old and a thousand years old." ”
"Get up!"
"Empress Dowager Xie." Mo Jin stood up, only to find that the Queen Mother was not as old as she imagined, but very young.
And there was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl standing next to her, the girl's eyes were full of tears, and her face was aggrieved.
"You are the seventh lady of King Wu's mansion?"
"Hui Queen Mother, it is the concubine."
"Hey, it's not very good, it's not even half a point of my Xue'er, I really don't know what the emperor likes about you?" A hint of mockery flashed in the Queen Mother's tone.
Actually, this Miss Seven is good-looking, but she doesn't think she looks better than her niece.
Some time ago, she mentioned Lixue'er as a concubine in front of the emperor, but she was rejected.
Unexpectedly, within a few days, he had sealed other women as concubines, and he hadn't discussed it with her beforehand, which was a slap in the face.
That's why Mo Jin summoned her as soon as he entered the palace.
At first, Mo Jin didn't know where the Queen Mother's hostility towards her came from, but now she understood.
It is estimated that the emperor accepted her as a concubine and did not accept the name Xue'er, after all, this is how it is played in TV series.
After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she looked at the woman beside her and comforted: "Xue'er, don't worry, I will definitely tell the emperor to let him make you a concubine, as for where this woman came from, she will go back, and her title will not count." When the words fell, he glared at Mo Jin fiercely.
Only then did Mo Jin know that this fifteen or sixteen-year-old woman was Xue'er in the mouth of the Queen Mother, she looked good, she was indeed good, but no matter how she looked at it, she was not as harmless as she was now.
Sure enough, in the next second, the woman called Xue'er cried and said: "Xue'er thanked the Queen Mother, but please don't mention the matter of Feng Xue'er, because Xue'er is not good enough and is not worthy of the emperor."
Seeing Xue'er crying so sadly, the Queen Mother felt that her heart was about to break, and hurriedly said: "Xue'er, don't cry, you are the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, how can you not be worthy of the emperor, don't worry, the mourning family will definitely say it for you."
Xue'er nodded, "Thank you Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is so good to Xue'er." ”
Mo Jin was a little speechless, she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and she interpreted the word white lotus so perfectly, and she also admired it.
"Queen Mother, if there is nothing to do, the concubine will retire first." Mo Jin was not interested in staying here and watching them perform.
But the Queen Mother didn't plan to let Mo Jin go like this, she remembered that it was because of this woman that her Xue'er cried so sadly.
"You come over and massage the legs of the mourning family."
"Queen Mother, it's good to let the maid come to this kind of thing, right?"
"Why, you don't even dare to listen to the words of the mourners?" There was a hint of anger in the Queen Mother's tone.
It doesn't matter if the emperor doesn't take her seriously, but if she can't even subdue a little concubine, then she will be the queen mother in vain.
Mo Jin could see it, she thought that the Queen Mother was just curious about her and summoned her so quickly, but she didn't expect that she was deliberately looking for trouble?
But she had no choice but to resign herself to her fate, she had just entered the palace, and she was not suitable for being an enemy of others, especially not against the most powerful woman.
And Su Ruoxue was in a place where no one could see it, and a sneer quickly flashed at the corner of her mouth.
A mere person from Wu Wangfu dared to snatch her concubine, and she simply didn't know whether she was alive or dead.
This is not what Mo Jin wants, she is just arranged here by fate. She didn't have any feelings with the people of the Wu family, but she didn't want to see all the people of the Wu family executed.
So she promised the emperor that she would come here to be a concubine for the Wu family. She was originally going to Yunlan Pavilion, but she felt that she couldn't harm so many people for her own selfish desires.
So she is now Concubine Xiang.
After receiving the order of the Queen Mother, Mo Jin did not dare to be half a point of neglect. She gently placed her hand on the Queen Mother's leg and massaged it gently.
She was a little glad in her heart, because she had massaged her grandmother in her own time, so she still had a lot of research on this aspect.
She continued the massage with great skill. The Queen Mother was also enjoying herself, leaning back on the chair behind her, her eyes slightly closed.
Su Ruoxue, who was on the side, couldn't stand it anymore, she felt that the Queen Mother must be fascinated by her, but she still believed that the Queen Mother was on the same front as her.
She thought to herself: The Queen Mother may want to make it difficult for her in the future, yes, that's it.
So she felt a little comfortable in her heart, so she was sipping melon seeds on the side. Waiting to watch the play, see how the Queen Mother makes it difficult for the Xiang Concubine in front of her.
She stumbled, and unconsciously found that there were already a bunch of melon seed shells in front of her, but the Queen Mother was still enjoying it silently with her eyes closed.
Su Ruoxue felt that she couldn't stand it anymore, so she said coquettishly: "Queen Mother." ”
The Queen Mother, who was enjoying herself, heard her niece call herself, so she opened her eyes all of a sudden.
The Queen Mother thought that she was looking for something for herself, and immediately turned her head to look at Su Ruoxue. As if there was a question mark written on his face, he asked Su Ruoxue what was going on?
Su Ruoxue saw that the Queen Mother had no reaction, and said hesitantly: "I... We...... That's that. ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, she understood the meaning of Su Ruoxue's words. Mo Jin, who was massaging seriously, was dizzy by them.
But she seemed to understand a little bit of what they meant, but she didn't want to figure it out, she didn't want to imagine people's hearts so dark.
So she just wants to do what she has in her hands, and now she just needs to press the Queen Mother's legs, and the Queen Mother will let her leave when the time comes.
But what she didn't expect was that within a few minutes, the Queen Mother began to embarrass her.
"Concubine Xiang! I want to drink water. The Queen Mother said squeamishly.
Mo Jin knew that the Queen Mother was pretending when she heard it, but she couldn't help it.
She thought about it carefully, in her own time, then this was her old woman. In any case, she has to get along with her old woman.
And put aside the current situation, the queen mother is the most authoritative woman in the harem, and she always has to stammer.
If there is anything in the future, she will have the backing of the Queen Mother.
She stood up, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said, "I'll go and pour." ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, she also expressed her gratitude and said, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
"It's not hard, it's not hard, you're half my mother!" Mo Jin said as he walked in the direction of the table.
As soon as she walked over, she picked up the cup on the table when she realized that she had said something wrong.
She immediately turned around and found that the Queen Mother and that Su Ruoxue were both looking at her with puzzled expressions.
She smiled awkwardly and continued to pour herself water.
At this time, the Queen Mother said: "Mom? What is it? ”
Mo Jin was a little flustered when she heard this, she just said it casually. She forgot that in ancient times, there was no word for mother, only mother!
She laughed out loud and said embarrassedly, "No, it's just an expression that I'm going to do anything." ”
After hearing this, the Queen Mother expressed great amazement, it was the first time she had heard this word, and it was also the first time she understood this word.
After pouring the water, Mo Jin carefully held it and handed it to the Queen Mother. But how could the Queen Mother forget her agreement with Xue'er, she had already thought of a countermeasure in her heart.
As soon as she took the water, she took a sip, so she said angrily, "It's cold, I want to drink hot water, don't you know?" ”
"I ......" Mo Jin was very speechless, because she came to the palace for the first time today, how did she know that the Queen Mother wanted to drink hot water.
She took the cup with half a glass of water left in the queen mother's hand, returned to the table, and was about to pour hot water, but found that there was only cold water in it.
She looked back at the Queen Mother and said, "Queen Mother, wait for me for a few minutes, the hot water will come immediately." ”
When she had finished speaking, she ran out. A few minutes later she hurried back again, only to have an extra pot of hot water in her hand.
She carefully poured a cup of hot water, handed it to the Queen Mother, and then said gently: "The Queen Mother is careful to burn." ”
As soon as the Queen Mother took it, she splashed it on Mo Jin's clothes. After she finished splashing, she said, "It's too hot, pour it again." ”
Mo Jin looked down at his half-wet clothes, which were still emitting white smoke.
Although she was full of anger in her heart, she kept reminding herself not to lose her temper, not to lose her temper.
So she resignedly said, "Okay, Queen Mother." ”
She returned to the table, picked up her cup and continued to pour water, but this time she was half hot and half cold.
The Queen Mother took the water, and after drinking it, she didn't say anything. Mo Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief and finally satisfied the Queen Mother.
After the Queen Mother drank the water, she said to Mo Jin: "Come and continue to massage me." ”
"Okay." Mo Jin said while massaging the Queen Mother.
