Chapter Seventy-Eight: Zhou Wenwen is arrested
The more Chu Yunning showed that he didn't care, King Xiao felt like he had a bad thought in his heart, he didn't want to be looked down upon, and insisted on marrying Li Shangshu's daughter-in-law Li Shanshan as Princess Xiao.
The palace queen didn't speak for a long time, a little embarrassed, she looked at Chu Yunning again: "Chu Shang Palace, do you really plan to ......"
"Queen Mother, the minister has no such intention, thank you for your kindness." Chu Yunning refused very happily.
So in the awkward atmosphere of the three people, the palace queen nodded and agreed for a bad breath
, immediately made the decision to marry King Xiao.
"Congratulations to King Xiao for his beautiful wife, and I wish King Xiao an early noble son." Chu Yunning said hello for the first time, with a bright smile on his face, and he didn't see any sadness and anger, but this smile made the palace queen and King Xiao panic in their hearts.
Could it be that Chu Yunning really doesn't care about anything?
No, it must be a disguise!
The palace queen still refused to believe it, and vowed to tear off Chu Yunning's disguise, so she said: "Chu Shanggong is a member of the harem, and has a relationship with Xiao Wangfu, this palace orders you to go to Li Shangshu's mansion, talk about the birth dates of King Xiao and Li Shanshan, and choose a suitable time." ”
Let an ex-wife talk about it, and it will be what the palace queen can do, Chu Yunning accepted it generously: "The minister obeys the order." ”
"Without further ado, let's go today." The queen of the palace found a reason and gave the pair of dragon and phoenix jade pendants to Li Shanshan, implying that the dragon and phoenix were auspicious, and asked Chu Yunning to transfer them on her behalf.
Remember https://m in a second.
Chu Yunning took the brocade box and checked it to confirm that it was correct, and left the palace directly after putting it on, as if he was afraid that the palace queen would regret it.
"You can't wait?" King Xiao chased after him unwillingly, staring at Chu Yunning's face, trying to find something.
"Could it be that Lord Xiao regrets it?" Chu Yunning raised her head and asked, she knew that King Xiao couldn't stand the agitation method the most, King Xiao took a deep breath and grabbed Chu Yunning's arm: "Don't play tricks with this king here, it's enough trouble, and the anger should be gone, this king is willing to ...... with the royal brother."
"Lord Xiao!" Chu Yunning interrupted King Xiao's words in time, with a serious face; "The gentleman is hard to chase after a horse, not to mention that there is a holy decree, and the fate between us is over."
"Really?"
Chu Yunning nodded without hesitation, from the day she crossed over, it was impossible for her to accept King Xiao.
It's good that I didn't settle accounts with him.
King Xiao looked embarrassed, gritted his teeth and brushed his sleeves away, leaving only an angry back for Chu Yunning.
Chu Yunning didn't think so, and went directly to Li Shangshu's Mansion after leaving the palace, explaining her intentions, Mrs. Li Shangshu was a little embarrassed, but fortunately, she didn't embarrass her, and it was the queen's will, Li Shangshufu could only agree with a smile and accepted the dragon and phoenix pendant.
"The queen mother means that the sooner the marriage between the two families, the better."
Mrs. Li Shangshu was slightly stunned, according to her daughter's identity, she was not enough to be a concubine, and she was the concubine of King Xiao, but King Xiao made a fuss a few days ago, and the real daughter of the wang family would not marry King Xiao at all.
Therefore, Shangshu's daughter is not considered to be Princess Xiao.
The two hit it off and set the latest day, the eighth day of the next month.
"Mrs. Li rest assured, the royal family will not wronged Miss Li, so the minister will go back to the palace to report and let the Internal Affairs Office start preparations as soon as possible."
Mrs. Li Shangshu smiled wryly, she always felt that something was strange, and the divorced princess helped her ex-husband talk about the current marriage, and it was the first time she had met her when she was so old.
"Then there is the Lao Chu Shang Palace."
"Mrs. Li is polite."
Chu Yunning left the Li family in a hurry, took advantage of the time to go back to the Chu family early, and asked people to inform Mrs. Chu, and after a while, Mrs. Chu came, and when she saw her, her eyes were red, and she cried into tears.
It gradually subsided under Chu Yunning's appeasement.
Mrs. Chu looked Chu Yunning up and down, and sighed: "Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, this road is a little difficult, and you should pay attention to safety yourself." ”
"Mother, don't worry!"
Chu Yunning reported good news to Mrs. Chu and didn't say anything else to worry her, and Chu Yunning left half an hour later.
"Master, it's not too early, it's time to go back."
Chu Yunning shook his head; "Let's go to the Remembrance Building again!"
Although there were credible people outside staring at Yisi Building, she still wanted to take a look, standing on the shore, looking at the lifeless Yihong Building in the past, and the Yisi Building next door was full of wind and water, quite a sense of accomplishment, and when she saw the bill, the smile on Chu Yunning's face was even more irresistible.
So when I returned to the palace, the smile on my face was confiscated, and I went to the queen's palace to resume my life while it was dark, and waited for a while before the queen's side came out: "Niangniang has committed an old illness, and it is inconvenient to see Chu Shang Palace for the time being, Chu Shang Palace Ming'er will report again." ”
"Yes!"
After a day of tossing, he returned to the Qingluan Palace, where Beibei was sitting on the soft collapse and putting together a pair of giant building blocks, the appearance of a ship.
"This was sent by the emperor's uncle." When Beibei saw Chu Yunning coming back, he immediately put down the building blocks in his hand and greeted him, and said with a smile: "Master told me a lot of stories today, and I think it is very useful. ”
Beibei is like a person who has just opened the door to world cognition, and he shared what he learned with Chu Yunning one by one.
"Mother, I like Uncle Huang very much."
Emperor Mingwen accompanied Beibei for an afternoon, loving and patient, every time Beibei asked a question, the other party could answer it fluently, not perfunctory at all, so that Beibei felt respected.
Chu Yunning touched Beibei's head, his son was still not deeply involved in the world, he didn't understand the sinister world, and he couldn't bear to hit the innocence in Beibei's heart, so he said with a smile: "The emperor is well-read, he must be a very powerful person, you have to be more respectful, don't be rude." ”
"Mother, Beibei understands."
Beibei plunged into the patchwork blocks, having a lot of fun, Chu Yunning didn't bother when he saw this, leaning on the soft collapse and squinting.
This day was too tiring, and after a while, there was an even breathing sound, and Beibei couldn't bear to disturb it when he saw this, so he had to go to the council hall by himself.
When Gonggong Mo saw Beibei coming, he smiled and narrowed his eyes: "The little county king is here." ”
"I want to see Uncle Huang."
Emperor Mingwen was dealing with official business in the council hall, and when he heard Beibei's voice at first glance, he was in a good mood and let him in.
"Uncle Huang!" Beibei held up the building blocks high with both hands and grinned: "I've put it together." ”
Emperor Mingwen rarely put down the fold in his hand with great interest, invited Beibei to sit beside him, raised his thumb and praised a few words without hesitation, and asked Chu Yunning again.
"My mother fell asleep as soon as she came back."
"Then is your mother sad?"
Beibei tilted his head and asked puzzledly: "Why are you sad, my mother was obviously in a good mood when she came back." ”
Emperor Mingwen raised his eyebrows, he believed that a child would not lie easily, so the smile on his face became even stronger.
"Then King Xiao is going to marry a new daughter-in-law again, are you sad?"
Beibei shook his head without hesitation, he only had a few contacts with King Xiao, and he didn't like this person, especially King Xiao often helped bad women bully his mother, so he didn't have a good impression of King Xiao.
"I'm not sad at all, and my mother doesn't like King Xiao." Beibei pouted and snorted, with a posture that although I am young, I know everything: "My mother said a long time ago that it took eight lifetimes to marry King Xiao." ”
"Does your mother really say that?" Emperor Mingwen smiled, hugged Beibei and sat on his lap, looked at his cute little face, and said in a good mood: "Let's make an agreement between us, don't tell your mother in today's conversation." ”
Beibei hesitated for a moment.
"I'll let Gong Mo take you to the small storehouse ......"
Beibei shook his head: "I know that Uncle Huang doesn't want my mother to be angry when he touches the scene, and is worried that my mother is asking right?" ”
Emperor Mingwen touched his nose with his fingertips when he heard this, smiled and said nothing, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence, Beibei glanced at the hour: "Uncle Huang, I should go, if my mother can't find me, I should be in a hurry." ”
Beibei advanced and retreated to a certain extent, and was not greedy, which made Emperor Mingwen happy, and handed Beibei a small token before leaving: "You can come to Uncle Huang at any time in the future." ”
"Good!" Beibei took it unceremoniously, stuffed it into his arms, and grinned at Emperor Mingwen: "Uncle Huang, you have to eat on time." ”
Emperor Mingwen was slightly stunned, looking at Beibei's back, his emotions were a little complicated for a moment, and he couldn't tell if he was moved.
"Someone!"
Father-in-law Mo entered: "What does the emperor command?" ”
Emperor Mingwen snapped the fold on his hand and ordered to Gonggong Mo: "Pass the meal!" ”
"Yes!" Gonggong Mo was a little surprised, and then he was happy, Emperor Mingwen's appetite has always been bad, and he rarely eats after dark, and he has also persuaded him several times, touching Emperor Mingwen's gloomy look, he didn't dare to say it again.
After another meeting, someone outside announced: "Your Majesty, Concubine Mei is here." ”
According to the schedule, it was Concubine Mei's bed again, and suddenly Emperor Mingwen's appetite was lost by more than half, so he put down his chopsticks and wiped the corners of his mouth: "It's all withdrawn." ”
Gonggong Mo couldn't guess what Emperor Mingwen meant, and asked worriedly: "Your Majesty, ...... that Concubine Mei?"
"Xuan!"
Early the next morning, Emperor Mingwen gave Concubine Mei a bunch of gold, silver and jewelry, letting people know that Concubine Mei was very favored and had been favored for several days in a row.
Concubine Mei is a person who knows how to be grateful, and she gave half of the reward to Chu Yunning for the first time, Chu Yunning accepted it unceremoniously, since she took over this job, she didn't mind filling her pockets, saving more money and waiting to leave the palace in the future, she and Beibei had a good life.
At this time, Bixiu said: "Miss, the county lord is here." ”
The county lord of Changyang?
Chu Yunning hurriedly put down the matter in his hand and asked Bixiu to invite someone in, and the county lord of Changyang walked over with a smile, looking up and down at the scene and object in the inner hall: "It's still a person in the palace, it's only been a few days, and the complexion of Chu Shang Palace is much better than before." ”
"County Lord, please take a seat." Chu Yunning poured a cup of tea and handed it to the county lord of Changyang, she knew that she would go to the Three Treasures Hall if she had nothing to do, and the other party was here to urge her to do something.
The county lord of Changyang didn't bother to beat around the bush, took a sip of the tea and put it down again: "Chu Shang Palace, when are you going to fulfill what you promised me before?" ”
She has been aggrieved enough for the position of county lord, and she can't wait to restore her status as the eldest princess.
"Helping the county lord restore the title is not something that can be completed overnight, it will take some time, and even more opportunities."
The county lord of Changyang raised his eyebrows and said unhappily: "Do you want to regret it?" ”
"No, since I promised the county lord, how could I go back on my word."
Seeing that Chu Yunning didn't seem to be telling a lie, the county lord of Changyang breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "I met Jing Niang when I entered the palace just now, and the person is right under my nose, why don't you take advantage of such a good opportunity?" ”
Chu Yunning was silent.
"With your current status, why do you have to do it yourself, there are many people who don't know the truth to clean her up for you." There is still a bit of contempt and contempt in the tone of the county lord of Changyang, it's been so long, it's still useless to take Jingniang, it's useless!
The county lord of Changyang sat for a while and left, and before leaving, he did not forget to urge: "Chu Shanggong still hurry up, my patience is limited!" ”
Chu Yunning clutched the cup tightly, her mood calmed down for a while before recovering, she got up and went directly to the palace queen to talk about yesterday's incident, and the palace queen let her stand at the door for an hour before letting her in.
"Back to the queen's mother, the minister picked a good day for King Xiao according to your instructions, and on the eighth day of the next month, it is appropriate to marry."
The palace queen already knew, and without raising her head, she made a faint humming sound, stretched out her nails stained with impatiens juice, and sneered at the corners of her mouth: "How does Chu Shang Palace arrange the sleeping space for the next month?" ”
According to her age, the palace queen is only in her twenties, but compared with the delicate concubines in the harem, the palace queen's appearance is not outstanding, but because of her dress, she is a little old-fashioned.
"Present it to the main palace."
The palace queen has not slept for more than a month, the fifteenth day of the first month has been occupied, a few days ago Emperor Mingwen came and just sat for a while and left, which made her very distressed, this morning there was a concubine Mei rewarded, he was pregnant again in the future, and the status of the palace queen was even more precarious.
Just when Chu Yunning was embarrassed, the flawed concubine came, and after a long absence, the flawed concubine's lower abdomen was slightly raised, wearing a delicate crimson palace dress, and the golden begonia flowers blooming on the collar were bewitching and dazzling.
"The concubine greets the queen." The flawed concubine symbolically bent her knees, and quickly stood up again, squinting at Chu Yunning, and retracted her expression with only a faint glance, as if she was just a transparent person.
This is the third time she has come face to face with the flawed concubine after entering the palace, and every time the flawed concubine turns a blind eye to her, she does not find fault or show favoritism.
"Concubine Niangniang." Chu Yunning saluted.
Concubine Guifei hummed lightly, turned her head and chatted with the palace queen: "When the concubine got up this morning, she suddenly felt a little tight in her lower abdomen, and she actually noticed that the emperor was kicking the concubine, and the concubine specially came to share the joy with the mother." ”
The palace queen's face stiffened, and every time the concubine came to her, she would mention the heir to stimulate her, in order to avenge the humiliation when she was demoted.
But the palace queen couldn't do anything, and seeing the flawed concubine jumping in front of her, she had to squeeze out a smile: "The little prince in the womb must be smart and cute, and the concubine is so blessed." ”
The imperial doctor diagnosed that the heir in the abdomen of the flawed concubine was a little prince, and Emperor Mingwen Longyan was happy, and even threatened to become the prince when he gave birth to a little prince.
Therefore, in the cognition of the harem concubines, the flawed concubine is listed as the person who cannot be offended, and there is no one.
