Princess Jimo - Persuading the Queen to Compete for Favor (78)
Empress Dowager recalled: "At that time, as soon as the emperor returned to the palace, he told the mourning family that he wanted you to be his queen, and the mourning family was still a little surprised, and the mourning family said that this is a lifelong thing, and the emperor could think about it before making a decision, but the emperor begged the mourning family to let the mourning family promise you to him, and he said to the mourning family, he fell in love with you at a glance, and you stood quietly under the peach blossoms of the tree, just like a goddess who fell into the mortal dust by mistake, and the mourning family listened to the emperor is also sincere, so he agreed. ”
"Sure enough, within a few days, the emperor drafted a holy decree and ordered his henchmen to be sent to Zeng's mansion." The Queen Mother smiled kindly.
The queen smiled faintly: "The concubine didn't know that there was such a thing, if she hadn't come to see her aunt today, I don't know if she could have known about it." ”
The Queen Mother gently held the back of the queen's hand and said slowly: "You are also fate, and others are incomparable." ”
"The concubine understands." The Queen's jaw.
"This is not just as simple as understanding", the Queen Mother meant: "The emperor's heart is just temporarily blinded, you have to fight more, understand?" ”
The queen was slightly stunned, and immediately understood that what the queen mother said was to make the concubine receive the emperor's favor alone.
"Yes, the concubines follow the teachings of the Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother nodded: "That's good, others don't know about the mourning family, but the mourning family knows that I, the emperor, must still have you in my heart." ”
The queen pursed her lips and smiled, but said nothing.
"Yuxiu Pavilion is becoming more and more presumptuous", the Queen Mother said earnestly: "With a pampered temperament, it is not as good as before, and there are two princes under the knees, which is inevitably worrying." ”
The queen's eyes were bright and her heart was bright, and she immediately understood what the queen mother meant. Yuxiu Pavilion's concubine Ling has both grace and two princes, and she only has one prince Yan'er, it is inevitable that she is weak, the emperor is a person of great affection, if you really change your mind one day, you want to change the concubine, not to mention Yan'er's difficult situation, even she and the queen mother's aunt are also in danger.
"Do you really want her to be a village woman from a humble background to be my Jimo's **?" The Queen Mother was faintly angry.
The queen said gently: "Aunt doesn't have to be angry, the emperor is not an unreasonable person, the concubine is not from a high background, and it is the highest honor to be able to reach the position of the concubine, I believe the emperor will not do that." "Although she comforted the queen mother, the queen herself had no bottom in her heart, the emperor could make her the queen because of one side, wouldn't she let Concubine Ling's child be the prince because of her temporary favor? The queen cannot guarantee it.
"If it's as you say, the mourning family won't worry." The Queen Mother sighed, she hoped that what the Queen said was true, so that she would not have to worry about preserving the glory of the Zeng family.
"Yue'er is a capable person, let her come and help you deal with palace affairs", the Queen Mother's voice changed, and she said back to the power of the assistant six palaces: "What about you, just study and study the emperor's preferences, sometimes, women, don't have to be too indisputable, don't fight or grab, like Concubine Ling, timely weakness can get the mercy of men, understand?" Looking at her niece's elegant temperament, the Queen Mother had a headache.
"The concubines follow the teachings of the Queen Mother." The queen lowered her eyes.
"The mourning family also heard that Concubine Ling often doesn't go to greet you?" The Queen Mother's eyes were cold.
The queen was indifferent: "It's okay if you don't come, but the concubine still feels cleaner." "Whether Concubine Ling comes or not, she has no waves in her heart, there is no person in her heart, even if his favorite woman walks under her nose, she is still indifferent.
"Hmph", the Queen Mother snorted coldly: "It's time to rule the rules in this palace, otherwise how can the majesty of your queen exist?!" ”
"The concubine understands, so leave it to Yue'er." The queen received.
"Okay." The Queen Mother's head.
The queen got up: "Since there is nothing to do, the concubine will not disturb the queen mother, and she will retire." ”
"Have you eaten?" The Queen Mother asked.
The queen was stunned: "Not yet." ”
"Then sit down and have lunch with the mourners." The Queen Mother signaled, and after a while, a pair of bowls and chopsticks came to the table.
"These are your favorite foods, use more." The Queen Mother smiled kindly.
"Aunt Xie." Unknowingly, the queen's title for the Queen Mother was changed to "aunt" again.
The Queen Mother's eyes flashed and she remained silent......
One of the two is already dying, and the other is nearly thirty years old, but the posture of the meal is elegant, not in a hurry or slow, only after the best training can have such a demeanor, the two of them did not eat much, and soon ran out of food, and the palace maids came up to take the dishes, chopsticks, and plates one by one.
"The weather is very good today, and the mourning family doesn't want to take a nap, queen, you can go out for a walk with the mourning family." The Queen Mother suddenly proposed.
The queen is still gentle and gentle: "Yes." ”
Mama helped up the queen mother, Ziqing stepped forward to help the queen, the two got up and walked outside the hall, the sky in the palace was deep and cloudy, so that people could not see it at a glance, it was obviously late autumn, but the carefully cultivated flowers and plants in the back garden were still in full bloom in the wind, the flowers were enchanting, and the end was delicate.
"The mourning family remembers, you are the least fond of these delicate flowers, at that time, the mourning family gave you a peony and gold dress, and you only wore it once at the mourning family's birthday banquet." Looking at the prosperity of the garden, the Queen Mother couldn't help but recall the time when the queen had not yet left the cabinet.
The queen smiled: "It turns out that my aunt knows." ”
The Queen Mother smiled: "The mourning family should not know, but guess, why did the mourning family know?" The Queen Mother's expression was mysterious.
"The concubine doesn't know." The Queen shook her head.
"The emperor told me all this."
The queen was stunned for a moment, her expression subtle.
The Queen Mother continued: "The emperor has a lot of affairs all day, but as long as he is free, he will study your preferences, some things, even the aunt of the mourning family may not be clear, but the emperor knows it clearly", the queen mother stroked the queen's hand, and said seriously: "Empress, the emperor is affectionate to you." ”
The queen lowered her eyes and was silent.
The queen mother sighed, her own emperor, was obviously infatuated with Ah Yi at the beginning, and the autumn wind painted a fan, how could she now spoil another person regardless of it? Ah Yi was obviously heartbroken, as if she never wanted to approach the emperor again, and the Queen Mother felt a headache.
"Ah Yi, a woman regards her husband as her heaven, no matter how the emperor is, after all, he is your husband, can't you forgive him once?" The Queen Mother earnestly induced.
The queen pursed her lips and finally agreed.
"My aunt's words are understood, and the concubine will try to do it."
"That's good, with the weight of Ah Yi in the emperor's heart, the mourning family is not worried about the loss of the Zeng family's power." The Queen Mother got the queen's promise and was happy. Knowing the son Mo Ruomu, his own emperor, what thoughts he thinks in his heart, what kind of thoughts he has, he can estimate seven or eight points.
The queen's eyebrows were faint, and the two continued to enjoy the flowers along the garden, the scenery was picturesque along the way, and the two talked softly, and the scene was very harmonious......
Suddenly, a collision sound startled the two people who were enjoying the flowers, and the two looked in the direction where the sound came from at the same time, as if they were on the other side of the garden, full of flowers, but at this time they also blocked their vision.
"How do you walk? Do you have long eyes? An angry female voice came.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the slave didn't see the princess before she bumped into it, and I ask the princess to forgive me." A palace maid's voice panicked.
Princess? The two people who were admiring the flowers looked at each other, and walked to the other side of the garden, where the sound came......
"Forgiveness? That's your attitude?! The previous female voice became more and more aggressive.
The palace maid was stunned for a moment, pretending to look around inadvertently, the road she walked has always been remote, and there are very few people passing by, and it must have been just a coincidence that she met the fifth princess today, thinking like this, the palace maid's courage increased.
"The slave is apologizing, naturally this is the attitude, sister don't be too aggressive!" The palace maid retracted her saluting posture and straightened up.
Looking at the arrogant and rude appearance of this palace maid, Hanxing was so angry that he couldn't say a word.
"Okay, Hanxing, don't worry about it, let's go." Concubine Ji comforted.
Of course, Concubine Ji is of course not indifferent, on the contrary, she also accounts to the end. Listening to the prompt sound of the system in her mind, the Queen Mother and the Empress have been attracted attention and are walking here, and today's event will be her first step to the palace to take revenge.
"Princess, you are so good at talking, do you know..."Before the words fell, a dignified and atmospheric female voice sounded.
"Do you know what? Well? ”
Han Xing was taken aback: "To the queen mother, please say hello to the queen mother!" Yingxing also saluted.
Concubine Ji pretended to be frightened, and hurriedly bowed: "To the Queen Mother, please say hello to the Queen Mother." ”
Yuechan knelt down respectfully.
The queen and the queen mother who came to enjoy the flowers in the garden, the queen gently held the hand of the queen mother, the queen was dignified and elegant, the queen mother was graceful and luxurious, behind her was the waiting grandmother and Ziqing, the green surrounded the three people, both of them were extraordinary, and the situation made people feel awe.
Yue Chan was slightly afraid in her heart, this was the first time she was so close to the two most noble women in the harem, but after thinking about it quickly, she had just collided with the princess, and she had already knelt down to ask for forgiveness, even if the queen still thought she was rude, according to the palace rules and the queen's always charitable style, at most she would be punished a few boards, and when the time came, the concubine would send someone to secretly accommodate her, and it would be fine, thinking like this, Yue Chan was proud in her heart.
"Get up", the queen said: "Today, the palace and the queen mother are visiting the garden in the garden, and I hear your voices from afar, and they all talk about it, what happened?" ”
Concubine Ji apologized: "It's all Shu'er's to disturb the interest of the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother's visit to the garden." ”
"No problem", looking at Concubine Ji as if she felt that she had done something wrong, her face was at a loss, and the queen's heart softened: "The palace is just a casual stroll." ”
The Queen Mother's voice was faint, but her face was serious: "You, tell me what happened just now, report it truthfully, and don't say anything about it." The Queen Mother looked at Han Xing, who was standing beside Concubine Ji.
