Chapter 111: What to Trade
"It's good if you can figure it out, it's you who hurts the mourning family the most in this palace." Seeing that she seemed to really understand what to do, the Queen Mother let go of the last bit of prejudice against her. "You have to know what is the most important thing, the position of the queen or even the queen mother is not something that can be obtained with the emperor's favor, and even if you get it, you may not be able to sit firmly. It is safest to have a prince in hand. ”
"Yang'er also wants to start a branch for the royal family as soon as possible, but I have never been pregnant in the past few years since I entered the palace, so I don't have this fate in my life." As he spoke, Liu Yuyang smiled bitterly. In the early years, she was not very anxious, because no one in the palace was pregnant at that time, and at that time she secretly heard others say that it was not necessarily that her cousin had a problem. It wasn't until later that she gave birth to Princess Yongle successively, and then Wang Jinyun's woman also had Jiale.
That's when she really started to get anxious. Since a child has already been born, it means that the problem is not with the cousin. She also secretly asked her mother to find a lot of prescriptions from the people and bring them in, but she drank a lot of medicine, but it had no effect at all. In the past few years, she has also stopped thinking about it. Unexpectedly, Lin Yaxin appeared, and she had almost no room to fight back when she was beaten in such a posture.
"You." Speaking of this, the Queen Mother was also a little annoyed, "I reminded you before that Zhang Yingchen is dead, let you treat Yongle well, but how did you do it?" actually ignored her, and finally let Concubine De take advantage. ”
"Yongle is that woman's child, how can Yang'er love her? I want to strangle her to death. "To say that among the women she has met in this life, Liu Yuyang hates the most is not the concubine Zhao Qinyue, who has always been above the top, nor Lin Yaxin, who took away her favor, but Zhang Yingchen, who died in childbirth a few years ago. The reason for this is that we have to mention an old thing.
Back then, the emperor originally wanted to point out Liu Yuyang to Li Yiqian as the concubine, and the queen mother had already gone to her mother's house to tell her mother, so that Liu Yuyang could prepare the things for the wedding. And Liu Yuyang knew that he would marry Li Yiqian a long time ago, so he had already put a heart on him, and now he knew that he was going to marry him as his wife, and he was naturally very happy in his heart.
It's just that I don't know why, but when the emperor gave me the marriage, she was just a side concubine, which made Liu Yuyang's excitement cold all of a sudden. From a wife to a concubine, such a gap made her difficult to accept for a while. The most important thing is that a few days later, the emperor married Zhang Yingchen as Li Yiqian's concubine. Since then, Liu Yuyang has hated Zhang Yingchen. hates her for snatching her own place.
Later, Li Yiqian became the emperor, Zhang Yingchen became the queen as a matter of course, and Liu Yuyang was the concubine. Although the name of the concubine sounds very high, Liu Yuyang knows that she is just a concubine after all, so she has always dealt with Zhang Yingchen. Especially when she was pregnant, when she gave birth, Liu Yuyang moved some hands and feet, so that she died in dystocia unknowingly.
At that time, after the Queen Mother knew about this matter, she was naturally dedicated to helping her niece, so she quietly dealt with those who knew about it, leaving only Liu Yuyang's henchmen.
It can be said that the most powerful people in the palace have interfered in this matter, so Li Yiqian and the others naturally didn't notice anything wrong. What's more, at that time, he was still concentrating on expanding his power, and he didn't notice these things at all. And Zhang Yingchen's father, General Zhenbei, heard the news that his only daughter died in childbirth, although he was sad, he didn't expect that this was a conspiracy, and he only thought it was his daughter Fubo. It is not uncommon for women to die in childbirth.
In this way, various reasons were superimposed, and Zhang Yingchen was defined as a dystocia and died. And the baby girl she gave birth to is naturally Princess Yongle, because she was born without a mother, the queen mother made the decision to let Liu Yuyang raise her, originally she wanted to use a princess to occupy Liu Yuyang so that Liu Yuyang would not have no one under her knees.
If it is cultivated in the future, it will also be beneficial to Liu Yuyang's children. After all, it is not as good as raising kindness, and whoever raises the child will kiss who in the future. At most, it is a dowry, and the big head does not need to be made by Liu Yuyang. It's just that Liu Yuyang didn't expect Liu Yuyang to fail to understand her hard work at all, not only did she not treat Yongle well, but let Zhao Qinyue find out that she was suspected of abusing Yongle, and finally lost the right to take care of Yongle.
Although the Queen Mother knew that Liu Yuyang hated Zhang Yingchen, she never thought that Liu Yuyang's hatred for taking her place would be so great, so it caused the later situation.
"Lu'er, the living will never be able to fight the dead. You can't just look at the things in the past, you have to look at the big picture. When the Queen Mother saw Zhang Yingchen, Liu Yuyang was so excited that she couldn't help frowning.
"Auntie, don't worry, Yang'er knows what to do in the future, and she won't let you down. You're right, no matter how beautiful Zhang Yingchen was in the past, he is now dead, this harem will still be mine in the future, and I am the final winner. Liu Yuyang knew that the Queen Mother was for her own good, so she didn't refute it, but followed her words.
This is also what she thought of after the last time, the Queen Mother is just her aunt, so she will not tolerate her unconditionally, and her kindness to herself is conditional. If what she did displeased her, then there is no doubt that she will give up. Without herself, there are still many people in the family who want to be used by her, and she will not lose anything, but she will be miserable. Therefore, what she has to do is to make the Queen Mother happy, and as for the rest, she still needs to be careful.
The Queen Mother didn't know that Liu Yuyang had other thoughts about her, so she was very happy to see her listen to her words. pulled her and said a lot of "intimate" words. What a picture of "mother-in-law and daughter-in-law".
After chatting for a long time, the Queen Mother also felt a little tired, and Liu Yuyang retired with a very good look. As she left, her eyes were full of sarcasm.
In the Qiangong, Li Yiqian, Gongsun Ce, and Nalansong were chatting happily. Originally, the envoys of various countries should also be waiting in the Qiangong at this time, but Li Yiqian said that he would discuss the chaotic chess game that day with the two princes, so they were invited to the side hall. Only the three of them were left, and in order to make the trick more realistic, Li Yiqian also specially instructed Mu Xiu to take three chessboards.
"I really didn't expect that the well-known Prince Nalan would be such a ambitious person, I really admire Lonely." After everyone left, Nalansong also put away the pretended arrogance on his face. The speed of changing his face surprised Gongsun Ce again and again.
Hearing Gongsun Ce's sarcasm, Nalan Song was also polite: "Isn't the prince of Ce, who has been reused by Emperor Lan, also sitting here?" I don't believe you don't have any thoughts. ”
There are very few people who know about the matter between Gongsun You and Gongsun Ce, and Li Yiqian also learned about it by accident in his previous life, and Nalan Song didn't know the inside story, so he naturally thought that Gongsun Ce was also trying to seize the throne.
"Don't attack each other anymore." Li Yiqian smiled and played a round, "Today, the three of us get together as friends, and we only talk about the friendship of allies, not anything else." Last time Prince Nalan mentioned it to me......"
Just as Li Yiqian was about to say something, Nalan Song interrupted him. "Since we have formed an alliance, Emperor Hua still calls me loose in private, Prince Nalan always looks very rusty when he listens to it."
"That's right, just call me Ce, I don't want to listen to you call me one by one, my diaphragm should die." Gongsun Ce also agreed, the identity of the emperor's younger brother was originally imposed on him by Gongsun You because of those things, so every time he heard someone call him that, he would feel that that person knew what was going on between them, and he felt uncomfortable.
"Well, in that case, you're welcome. In private, you can just call me dry, let's just talk about friends, regardless of the country. Li Yiqian guessed that Nalan Song put forward this opinion to show that he was closer to them, and Gongsun Ce's reason could be guessed by looking at his disgusted expression. So it's time to go.
"Song told me last time that he wanted to talk to Ce, but our identities are too special, and it is difficult to meet in private. So I can only take today's opportunity to let you get acquainted, but the time is limited, and I hope you have something to say. ”
Hearing that Li Yiqian had built a bridge for himself, Nalan Song glanced at him gratefully, and then looked at Gongsun Ce with a straight face. "I heard that you signed an agreement with him between the two countries, and the two sides will not fight in the future, I don't know if you are interested in signing this agreement with me."
Gongsun Ce raised his eyebrows, it seemed that both of them had signed that agreement with Li Yiqian. But what should be fought for is still to be fought for. "I wonder what you can trade this agreement for? You know, I'm not profitable. ”
Nalan Song seemed to have expected Gongsun Ce to say such a thing, and he was not surprised, and said the conditions he had thought of before. "I can help you when you take the throne."
"Hehe, you're too busy to take care of yourself now, what can you do to help me? Besides, I've formed an alliance with Qian, do I still need you? Gongsun Ce also expressed the disdain in his heart. If Naransong himself can solve the internal affairs of the Eagle Country, he will not seek foreign help.
"I can provide you with intelligence, and I can even help you with the military. One of the generals of Arashikoku is one of my men. Naransong looked confident, after he was reborn, he thought that one day he might ally with the families of other countries and use their strength to make himself on the throne, so he began to send his henchmen to other countries very early, for this day.
Gongsun Ce was very shocked by the news he released. You must know that the military power of Lan Guo is firmly in the hands of Gongsun You, and those generals have followed him very early. But there were spies from other countries inside, which made him not surprised.
