Above the court is the open spear coming and going, and the Fengqi Palace is also the dark arrow coming and going. No matter what Wei Yuaner is, she is Webster's descendant after all, no matter how Webster's person is, it is impossible for Empress Wei not to care. After all the red tape, the concubines who took away the harem were sent away, leaving only the prince's new concubines.

Empress Wei glanced at these energetic women, and finally her eyes fell on Zhou Ruoshui, who was dressed in a red palace dress, with thousands of manners, dignified and elegant, compared to the several official women she selected, her temperament was very much like a real royal person. I also remembered the scene when I entered the palace, how I was not so old back then. Now, although it has the position of the mother of a country, it is too cold to be in a high place! Everyone only knows that they have supreme rights, but a few people know their helplessness. Thinking about her, she sighed, turned to Zhu Feifei, who was dressed in a concubine-colored palace dress, and said with a loving face: "Lord Wanting will have to stay in Beijing for a few more days this time, and the Spring Festival is coming soon. ”

Zhu Feifei hurriedly stood up and said, "The courtiers are going to live up to the kindness of the queen's mother, there is a father and mother waiting at home, and Brother Zhao and I have to find a hurry to go back." Zhou Ruoshui didn't know about this matter, and it would definitely hurt her heart if she said it rashly, and after finishing speaking, she hurriedly bent over to hold her hand, and said with concern: "Don't be sad, we will come back with my father and mother after the New Year." ”

Zhou Ruoshui smiled sadly and said, "I'm fine." ”

Although it was just three words, Zhu Feifei was still troubled, rubbing her hands, and was about to say something.

But it was preempted by Empress Wei: "It's a pity, you didn't say goodbye last time, Yunxi and Bengong have been thinking about you for a long time, and this time it seems that she has disappointed her again." ”

Zhu Feifei turned his head and smiled: "It's nothing, Feifei will go to Yingchun Palace to find the princess in a while, and explain to her in person that the princess is smart and understanding, and she will definitely not be angry with me." ”

has been sitting here for half an hour, but instead of reprimanding Zhou Ruoshui, Empress Wei didn't even say a word. After a long time, Wei Yuan'er couldn't sit still anymore, and couldn't bear to speak first: "Aunt, queen mother, we are all new concubines in the palace, and we don't know much about the etiquette in the palace. Please reprimand the queen mother a few words, lest someone hold a pet and be a pet of the special room! As he spoke, his eyes drifted to Zhou Ruoshui's body, pointing the finger at her.

What she said and what her eyes were alluding to, everyone understood, Zhu Feifei was not stupid, and naturally understood, he couldn't bear it anymore, and pointed at her and said, "Aren't you referring to water!" ”

Cao Kexin, who was sitting next to her, glanced at Zhu Feifei and said arrogantly: "Liangdi Niangniang is right, as the crown princess, you should be generous, if you can't even do this, then what ability will you have to rule the six palaces in the future." ”

Zhu Feifei glared at Cao Kexin, turned to look at Wei Yuan'er and said, "What do you mean!" Is this Liangdi's identity not satisfying you, thinking about flying on the branches and sitting in the seat of the lord of the harem! ”

Song Jiayin squinted at Zhu Feifei and said disrespectfully: "Liangdi Niangniang is the niece of the queen's mother, she often goes in and out of this harem, and she knows more rules than us official women. Saying that, he stood up, saluted Empress Wei and Zhou Ruoshui, and continued: "Queen Mother, although the Empress Niang is not as good as Niangniang's harem, it is not a trivial matter inside and out, if something goes wrong, it is also related to the future and fate of His Royal Highness the Prince." Although the crown princess is the daughter of Zhongyong Bo, she is a businessman after all, and she has little knowledge of the affairs of the harem. ”

As soon as her words fell, Wei Yuan'er had already stood up and saluted Empress Wei and Zhou Ruoshui, and said unexpectedly: "Then the concubine is disrespectful and willing to share her worries for the crown princess." "It's as if the power of the womb is still in her hands.

Seeing that this person was so disrespectful, Zhu Feifei endured it, pointed at Wei Yuan'er and debunked: "Everyone will say nice things, don't say those, you just rely on the majesty of the queen mother, and want to take away the power that Shui'er should have!" ”

Cao Kexin glanced at Zhu Feifei, got up and went over to persuade: "Lord Huanting doesn't have to be angry, the concubine thinks that Liangdi Niangniang is reasonable, Niangniang is the niece of the queen's mother, she has been walking in the palace for many years, and she has long known everything about the harem, and it is just logical that the affairs of the prince's harem are handed over to Liangdi Niangniang. ”

Song Jiayin echoed casually: "The concubine also thinks that what Cao Liangyuan said is reasonable, Liangdi Niangniang only lives under the crown princess, and it is natural and reasonable for the prince's harem to be handed over to Liangdi Niangniang." ”

Since seeing Wei Yuan'er's true face, Empress Wei's mind has changed a little. But for the benefit of the family, she still made it clear according to everyone's wishes, looked at Zhou Ruoshui, and said slowly: "The princess has just entered the palace, and she still doesn't know everything in the harem. ”

Zhou Ruoshui smiled lightly, looked around at everyone, still understood everyone's purpose, stood up, and bowed: "The concubine is the concubine of His Royal Highness the Prince, and it is natural for her to be friendly and lenient to all sisters. But if the queen doubts the ability of the concubine, she can make a decree to remove the concubine and the princess from the position, and if she is not in her position, she will not seek her own government, and lest the concubine end up with a name of incompetence in the future. ”

Lu Jue has long said that he is a husband and a wife, an emperor and a queen, he and Empress Wei are not of the same mind, and Zhou Ruoshui's position is what Lu Jue tried his best to fight. He has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands, and the time is not yet ripe for Wei to force the palace, if he really ignores the momentary anger at this time, it will be more than worth the loss.

Everyone thought that Zhou Ruoshui was the daughter of a businessman and had no knowledge, and everyone tried their best to say that it would make her lose her claim, as long as she had the opportunity to be favored, her status could be guaranteed. But everyone never expected that Zhou Ruoshui, who seemed to be soft and kind, would be so powerful.

Empress Wei is not one of those young women with little knowledge after all, no matter how shrewd Zhou Ruoshui is really or someone advises, you can't act rashly at this time, if you really annoy Lu Jue, it will not do you any good to yourself and Wei Shi. After thinking about it, Empress Wei stopped talking, leaned on the arm of the chair, and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Not to mention that Wei Yuan'er is still young and has not yet reached the realm of Empress Wei, after listening to Zhou Ruoshui's words, she actually reprimanded: "The queen mother is the mother of a country, and she is also the mother of His Royal Highness the Prince, the princess is so disrespectful, how can His Royal Highness the Prince's face exist!" ”

Mei Hanxue, who had not spoken, raised her eyelids to look at her, and snorted lightly: "If you want to say disrespect, Wei Liangdi is the first!" The crown princess is not sick and healthy, Wei Liangdi insisted on going her own way, and wanted to take the power of the prince's harem, knowing that she was sharing worries for the princess, and those who didn't know would be considered to be relying on the power of the queen's mother! ”

Wei Yuan'er couldn't hide her anger and looked at her, and scolded: "The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, the crown princess has just been disrespectful to the queen's mother, and even the concubines under her have begun to follow suit!" ”

"Yo-yo, what are you doing so loudly." Zhu Feifei crossed his hands on his hips, glanced at her and said: "Shui'er is the concubine that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is marrying, Wei Liangdi should be respectful as a concubine, but now these people who are high and low want to overstep their duties and seize power, this should not be taught by the crown princess!" May I ask Wei Liangdi, where is this beam! ”

Song Jiayin got up and reprimanded: "Does the county lord mean that Liangdi Niangniang did it intentionally. ”

Mei Hanxue replied: "Song Liangyuan is so desperate for Wei Liangdi, why can't help but make people suspicious. ”

This sentence angered Song Jiayin all of a sudden, she stood up abruptly and pointed at Mei Hanxue, and said angrily: "You 、、、、、、"

As soon as she said a word, Empress Wei interrupted impatiently: "Okay, this is the Fengqi Palace of the main palace, not a vegetable market, what kind of arguing here, kneel down!" The crown princess stays, and the palace has something to talk to you about. ”

Everyone stood up and saluted, "The concubine is retired." In a moment, except for Zhou Ruoshui and Zhu Feifei in the main hall, several other people and subordinates had already retreated.

Looking at Zhu Feifei who was left, Empress Wei was full of displeasure: "Didn't Lord Huanting understand the words of this palace!" The palace said that the crown princess would stay alone. ”

Zhu Feifei smiled disapplausively: "Why should the queen care, Feifei doesn't know a basket of big characters, and you speak in a concise manner, I'm not here here, aren't they all the same!" ”

Empress Wei looked at her sharply: "The matter that the palace and the princess want to talk about is related to the harem system, and the county lord is a person outside the palace, and it is inconvenient to participate in the affairs of the harem." ”

Zhu Feifei waved his hand and said, "If you talk about you, I don't exist."

This really made Empress Wei anxious, and said angrily: "Come 、、、、、、"

Seeing that the momentum was not right, Zhou Ruoshui hurriedly spoke out to stop her: "Don't be angry, the concubine will persuade the sister-in-law to leave." Zhu Feifei was allowed to take Zhu Feifei aside and persuade: "Shui'er knows that her sister-in-law is worried about Shui'er, but this is the palace after all, if your sister-in-law is careless, how can Shui'er bear it!" Besides, what Shui Er wants to talk about with the queen is a harem matter, and it is inevitable that there will be boring words, and the sister-in-law will definitely be bored at that time, so it is better for the sister-in-law to go to the palace of Princess Yunxi to sit down, and when Shui Er finishes talking with the queen mother, she will send someone to invite the sister-in-law? ”

Zhu Feifei turned his head to look at Wei Hou, who was still not at ease, but he couldn't resist Zhou Ruoshui, so he decided to take a step back and said, "Take a step back, I will wait for you outside the hall with Yuzhu and them." ”

Zhou Ruoshui said with a distressed look: "If it is cold outside, if my sister-in-law is frostbitten, won't it make Shui Er feel distressed." ”

Faced with her like this, Zhu Feifei surrendered, nodded reluctantly: "Okay, I'm afraid of you, then I'll go to Yunxi and come to Fengqi Palace with her to pick you up, I only retreat like this." ”

Zhou Ruoshui nodded: "It's okay, I left early for Liulang, and I have time to have breakfast in the future, I have prepared refreshments and meals before coming here, so it is better to ask the princess if she would like to sit down." ”

"The dim sum you make is better than the dim sum master, Yunxi, this little girl is very greedy, she likes to eat dim sum the most, she will definitely like these dim sum, without further ado, I will go to find Yunxi." He saluted Empress Wei and said, "Feifei retires." After explaining Zhou Ruoshui two sentences, he left with confidence.

After seeing Zhu Feifei leave, when Zhou Ruoshui turned his head, Empress Wei asked inexplicably: "Is the crown princess so close to Yunxi, is it true or false?" ”

Zhou Ruoshui smiled softly and said: "It's all in vain to tell the truth, because others can't see it or touch it." The queen mother already has a fixed number of concubines in her heart, so why should the concubines argue. ”

These two people have the same characteristic, that is, they will never argue in the face of rumors, because some things will become darker and darker, and smart people will look at them, and they will naturally be able to see the truth here. If you try to defend yourself superfluously, you will only appear ignorant and shallow.

In the face of this statement, Wei Hou was obviously speechless, making her feel that what she was talking about was all in vain. She put on a tired look, and told Zhou Ruoshui about the rules of the harem, the punishment system of the concubine, and how to deal with the affairs of the prince's harem, and also talked about how to be generous as the head of the first palace, don't want the favor of the special room, and let the prince stay in the place of other concubines, so that Zhou Ruoshui retreated, and sat alone in the palace without saying a word.
