After Empress Yu and Dou Zhaoyi separated, they each took their own painting boats and went to the spoon platform one after another. When Queen Yu arrived, Dou Zhaoyi, Meng Jieyu and other concubines had already arrived, and they were all waiting on the plank road of the spoon table with an oil umbrella. When the queen got off the painting boat, Dou Zhaoyi nodded her head and said "The queen's mother is immortal", and everyone knelt down to salute.

The queen waved her hand and said, "Hurry up and excuse yourself." With such a heavy rain, you wouldn't have had to wait here. It's summer at any time, but the cool air in Jianzhang Palace is much heavier than in the palace, be careful that you get wet and go back to catch a cold. I mean, let's take advantage of such a good rain to cool off the heat and have fun on this spoon table. After speaking, he turned his head and said to Liu Wei, "How did you pass on the decree, and why did you let so many mothers get drenched in the rain?" If they catch a cold, be careful that I skin you! ”

Liu Wei knew that this was Queen Yu selling favors, so she said very knowingly: "Niangniang is angry." The slave and maid did not do their errands. All the bad girls are drenched in the rain here. The slave and maid deserve death, please punish the slave and maid heavily. ”

Dou Zhaoyi said: "Niangniang is angry." It's not about Da Changqiu, it's the concubines who insist on waiting for the mother here. ”

Queen Yu said as she walked: "I see that you have a good popularity, so I won't punish you." However, it's always you who don't understand the decree and don't do things solidly, although the ladies intercede for you, but the account still has to be counted on your head. This time, I will make a note of it, and I will not punish you. If I don't do it again next time, I will not spare it. ”

"Whoa." Liu Wei responded. Liu Wei is a thoughtful person, but he doesn't understand Queen Yu's behavior. But Dou Zhaoyi is clear that Queen Yu is determined to contain these concubines.

The queen and all the concubines walked to the pavilion in the middle of the spoon table. It has not been renovated for many years. Emperor Longwu did not like luxury, and since he succeeded to the throne, it has not been repaired here, so the top beams and pavilion pillars of the Nanmu of the Mao Pavilion have become quite old. The queen stood in the middle of the most noble position in the pavilion, looking at the beautiful scenery of the rain lotus in the copper pool. The rain was so heavy that it was as if a curtain made of several layers of gauze was hung between the pavilion and the copper pool. The boundless lotus leaves in the copper pond rolled out, and seemed to be connected with the lake and sky in the distance. It is the most prosperous season of lotus flowers, countless lotus flowers are in the middle of the lotus leaves in the sky, some are blooming, some are budding, and one by one staggered to the ground swaying with the wind.

The Empress was in a very good mood, her eyes moved back from the copper pool, looked around at the slightly dilapidated pavilion, and said, "Although this pavilion looks a little old, it seems to have more charm than those fresh buildings with carved beams and paintings." If this pavilion is all newly built, it is too gorgeous, but it will rob the scenery of these rain lotuses and clear plains. Sit down. ”

Dou Zhaoyi said: "Niangniang's taste is the most elegant. The concubine remembered that one year, the year of the founding of Dazhao, the plum blossoms in our house were in full bloom, and it caught up with a surprisingly heavy snowfall. Niangniang took me and Meng Jieyu to look for plums in the snow, and stored a lot of snow to make tea. At that time, the mother said, 'Ruixue Zhao Fengnian', there must be a great joy. Sure enough, within a few days, Dazhao was established. It's elegant and magical. Since the establishment of the country, things in the house have become busier and busier, and I haven't had a good time with my mother for more than ten years. It's just in time for such a good rain, such a beautiful scenery, and such a good interest of the mother, the concubines have to wait for the good tricks of the mother. ”

Queen Yu smiled and said to Liu Wu: "Liu Wu, what tricks did you get for us to play today?" ”

Liu Wu said with a smile on her face: "Niangniang." It's rare to have a good rain today, the slaves and maids thought, please listen to the song with the mothers, enjoy the rain, enjoy the lotus, listen to the rain, listen to the music, okay? ”

Queen Yu glanced at Dou Zhaoyi and Meng Jieyu, and slowly tasted it: "Enjoy the rain, enjoy the lotus, listen to the rain, listen to the music?" It's a new look, and it sounds pretty good. It's just, Liu Wei, what good songs have you prepared for us? ”

"Niangniang, the slave and maid brought the musician, it is the Si Xiao and the Si Zheng."

"There are only two kinds of musicians, the dong flute and the zheng?" Empress Yu asked, obviously dissatisfied.

Liu Wei understood that this was due to the fact that Queen Yu did not know music theory. Such a heavy rain, and in the wooden pavilion, if there are too many kinds of music to accompany the music, mixed with the sound of raindrops hitting the wood, a bunch of sounds mixed together, messy, then nothing can be heard, it will only make people feel upset. Only one or two kinds of elegant accompaniment music can be elegant, and it also coincides with the artistic conception of appreciating lotus in the rain. But such a reason can't be played directly with Queen Luo, otherwise it will become a public ridicule of Queen Luo for not understanding music theory.

Liu Wu smiled and said, "This is the fault of the slave maid. In the past, Niangniang didn't like singing and dancing, so the slave only brought Si Xiao and Si Zheng to Jianzhang Palace this time. The slave and maid were not well prepared, disturbing the elegance of the mother, and asked the mother to punish the crime. ”

The queen smiled and said, "Look at you Liu Fu! We have a good appreciation of the rain and the lotus, and you have already been guilty twice in the blink of an eye. Aren't you ruining your fun? A relaxed and teasing tone.

Liu Wu and the concubines all laughed.

Queen Yu looked at Liu Wu and said, "However, I shouldn't blame you for this." I really don't like singing and dancing. You didn't take a lot of trouble to set up a work, which also shows that you are still diligent and diligent, where will I find your mistakes. But ah, it will be different in the future, those of us who are mothers, the children all go to the county to be the county king, and guard the county for His Majesty, so there are only a bunch of women like us, staying in the palace of the holy capital, what joy can we have? Isn't that all that's left to enjoy singing and dancing, eating and drinking? Liu Wei, in the future, you will show us all the good musicians and kabuki that Your Majesty used to raise in the palace. A few of us have given birth to such a bunch of good children for Your Majesty, and now it is your turn to follow Your Majesty to enjoy the blessings. The queen's tone was very kind, not like a queen, but like a kind old lady from a large family who didn't care about housework.

Liu Wu and the concubines laughed again.

Dou Zhaoyi smiled and said, "Niangniang, depending on the concubine's knowledge, you should be considerate of Da Changqiu's loyalty." Niangniang, you like to listen to the sound of rain hitting flowers and leaves, and the concubines and these slaves and maids are well aware of it. In the palace and palace before, how could there be such good rain and such good lotus. Da Changqiu's loyalty and diligence to his mother are unparalleled. I guess, Da Changqiu must be so that Niangniang can listen to the wonderful sound of the rain hitting the lotus leaves quietly? Isn't it, Da Changqiu? ”

Liu Wu didn't answer, just smiled and bent down respectfully towards Dou Zhaoyi.

"It's a rare sign of your loyalty." The queen stared at Liu Wei and said, "Then your loyalty will be fulfilled, and you won't play music for the time being." Let's listen to the sound of the rain hitting the lotus leaves. ”

As soon as the queen's words fell, there was no sound in the pavilion all of a sudden. There is only the sound of raindrops hitting thousands of lotus leaves.

This is indeed wonderful news that the Queen has never heard before. The queen loved to listen to the sound of raindrops hitting the flowers and leaves, so she planted all kinds of flowers and trees in the place where she lived, so that she could listen to this beautiful sound in the rain. The queen herself often went to various gardens in the rain to listen to the sound of the rain, and made it the best pleasure in the world. She had almost heard the sound of raindrops hitting the leaves of all kinds of flowers and trees, and she had almost heard the sound of rain hitting flowers and leaves in the gardens of various princes and ministers and wealthy families in the Holy Capital, and she could tell with her eyes closed that the raindrops were hitting the leaves of all kinds of flowers and trees. However, today's rain sound is something that Queen Yu has never heard before. The dense summer rain poured down on the thousands of thick lotus leaves in the vast copper pond, and there seemed to be countless musicians playing different instruments in the whole world, forming an indescribable wonderful effect.

The queen liked the subtle change of sound after a light breeze blew the rhythm of the raindrops falling was blown up, and then fell on the lotus leaves. At this time, the queen always felt as if she had become the only creature in the vast universe, and she had become a raindrop, falling from the sky, neatly falling on a beautiful leaf, and then sliding down the veins of the leaf. This kind of splashing freely and heartily makes the queen feel that she is in control of the whole world. It's a wonderful feeling.

For the Queen of the Lotus, the sound of the rain hitting the lotus leaves today is a hundred times more pleasant than any music. She closed her eyes and entered a meditative state. She followed the subtle changes in the sound and rhythm of the raindrops falling on the lotus leaves, and felt that she had become a colorless wisp of smoke, seeping into everyone's heart, and feeling the changes in everyone's heart. She infiltrated Dou Zhaoyi's heart and carefully observed Dou Zhaoyi's forbearance. She infiltrated Meng Jieyu's heart and looked at Meng Jieyu's ambition coldly. She infiltrated the hearts of the other concubines one by one, and found that the existing concubines were yearning for a better life in the future to enjoy honor, and some concubines compared their sons with other princes in all aspects. She found that although the concubines had different ideas, there was one thing in common, and all the concubines longed for their son to be the crown prince in the deepest part of their hearts, and then inherit the throne and become the supreme emperor. She also found that although all the concubines were respectful to her, they all despised the rank very much, and all thought that their own sons were a hundred times stronger than the rank, and that their own sons would sooner or later surpass the rank and become the crown prince chosen by His Majesty. In the past, she was very disgusted, wary, and even hated these concubines' thoughts, but now, when she once again realized the great contempt and inexplicable confidence in the hearts of these concubines, she felt extremely ironed in her heart.

Of course, she also felt that all the concubines were completely bored to sit here and listen to the rain.

She opened her eyes, saw the satisfied and appreciative expressions of each concubine, smiled slightly, and said, "Okay." Listening to the rain is a pleasure for me, but it is a boring chore for you. Let's have some other fun. Liu, do you have anything interesting arranged? ”

"Niangniang, the slaves and maids brought some lotus seed tea and all kinds of food that was hot in the summer. Please taste it with all the mothers. ”

"Refreshments? What's so fun about that? What's the fun? The queen asked with a smile.

This is the first time in history. Queen Yu has always been strict and harsh, how can she ever play with everyone? Liu Wei was stunned there, no matter how interesting he was, he couldn't guess what Queen Yu thought about this sudden change.

The queen said, "All right." You're a willow, you're getting more and more stupid. I'll tell you a trick, let's play it. Everyone looked at Queen Yu, they really couldn't imagine that such an old-fashioned and mean person could have any fun tricks?

The queen shook the fan lightly and said: "I remember when I was not out of the cabinet in the palace, every time I came to the big festivals of Lixia, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Lichun, my grandmother would take the ladies and little girls in our house to play with the dragon." Do you know about the Dragon? ”

Chuanlong is a trick played by everyone, where can there be a reason that I don't know, but the concubines present all shook their heads, to show that the queen's proposal is very novel and interesting. Lu Meiren also propped up her head with her hands, looked at Queen Yu with her eyes stupidly, and put on a look that she couldn't wait to listen.

The queen was really very interested, and said with great interest: "Actually, this dragon is very simple, and every family plays it." Let's find a thing, pass it down one by one, and there must be a musician next to it, and the person who plays the music is blindfolded, and you can stop playing the music at will. When the music stops, whoever gets the thing into his hands will have a piece of fun for us. Either tell you a funny joke, or sing a song to everyone, it's really not good, just tell a little anecdote. Anyway, it's just a matter of making everyone happy. This is all a trick for our little girls in the mansion to spend time, today, how about we also play this dragon? ”

Dou Zhaoyi said: "This trick is novel. But ah, the concubines are afraid, the concubines are all clumsy, and today I am afraid that they will be embarrassed in front of their mother. ”

The Empress smiled and said, "It's all right. It's a pastime. Over the years, it's rare for me to be so happy with you. In the future, our sisters will live together day by day, so we still have to have more fun. Otherwise, if you don't bother me, I will be tired of you. ”

This caused everyone to laugh again.

Liu Wei stepped forward and said, "Niangniang, let them play the dong flute or the kite today?" ”

"I don't understand that. Meng Jieyu, you are an expert, you can decide. ”

Meng Jieyu stood up, bowed slightly, and said, "Thanks to Niangniang for rewarding the concubine for such a big bonus." The concubine felt that the sound of the summer rain hitting the lotus leaf was very beautiful, and if it could be accompanied by the exquisite tone of the zither, it seemed to be more compatible. The concubine doesn't know much either, so she still asks the mother to decide. ”

"It's up to you. Let's play the zither. So what's the matter? ”

"Why don't you pass on a bud that hasn't bloomed?" Dou Zhaoyi pointed to a pool of lotus flowers in the copper pond and said.

"Dou Zhaoyi is really witty. This method is very good and very elegant. Queen Yu said happily.

A palace maid held an umbrella, walked to the shore, and folded a pink bud.

The queen took the buds handed over by the palace maid, looked at them for a while, sniffed them lightly, and said, "It's so fragrant, at dinner, you pick more buds and use ice water to cool the town, it tastes very refreshing." Liu Wu promised a "yes".

The queen said, "Let's start playing." ”

As soon as Liu Wei raised his hand, a zither who was waiting not far away immediately played the zither song.

Queen Yu passed the bud to Dou Zhaoyi on the left hand side, Dou Zhaoyi took it and continued to pass it down unhurriedly. The concubines who received the buds were all busy passing the buds down. When Gongsun Ronghua handed it down again, he didn't take it properly, and the bud fell on Chi Meiren's leg, which made Chi Meiren exclaim in fright, as if the bud was a small snake that could bite people. After Chi Meiren exclaimed, she looked at Queen Yu with a nervous expression, lest she would be unhappy if she had made her disrespectful. The cute look was very cute, and the queen looked at it, laughed and said, "Chi Meiren, pass it down quickly, be careful to stop in your hands." Chi Meiren put her heart at ease, blushing and laughing as she passed the buds down.

When the buds reached Meng Jieyu, the zither song suddenly stopped.

Meng Jieyu held the bud and hurriedly handed it to Queen Yu. Queen Yu posed and said, "Meng Jieyu, don't hurt me. It's yours. You're going to give us something fun to amuse us. Queen Yu's demeanor was avoidant, which caused everyone to laugh again.

Meng Jieyu held the bud in one hand and covered her mouth with the other, blushed with a smile, and said: "Niangniang, where will the concubine say any jokes, please be gracious and go around the concubine." This time, even if we try it out, it's not good. The concubines were very flustered in their hearts, and the first time they didn't have a good time, they didn't count this time. Okay, huh? ”

Queen Yu smiled and said, "Don't ask me, you ask them if they agree." ”

Meng Jieyu put the lotus branch in her arms, bowed down and said, "Zhaoyi Niangniang, save me." Sisters, help me. ”

Dou Zhaoyi said: "If we save you, we ourselves will suffer." Sister, let's talk about the last one. We don't dare to help with this. ”

Meng Jieyu looked really panicked.

Dou Zhaoyi smiled and said to Queen Luo: "Niangniang, take a look." Meng Jieyu is holding this lotus in her hand, how beautiful her posture is. Isn't it true that her religious name holds the lotus? ”

The concubines also remembered that Meng Jieyu's name was "Lotus Substitute Pastor".

The queen also remembered, so she said: "Hold the lotus daimu, look at it, isn't this fate." Your teaching is to hold a lotus, and it happens to be holding a lotus now, where can you find such a suitable thing? If you don't amuse us, we can't spare you today. ”

Meng Jieyu believes in Baijiao, she is a very cautious woman, she is used to being virtuous and virtuous on weekdays, and she really doesn't know what jokes to say, so she blushed and said: "Niangniang forgives her sins, the concubine really can't tell jokes." Ask the mother to bypass the concubine. Please,. ”

Queen Yu was not angry, and said with a smile: "If you beg me on weekdays, I have never been a person who does not rely on you." But this time, it can't be done. If I let you go, the sisters behind me will also ask me to let you go, and we won't be able to play this dragon anymore. ”

Meng Jieyu was really embarrassed.

Dou Zhaoyi glanced at Meng Jieyu and said to Queen Yu: "Niangniang, the concubine has an idea. I just don't know if Meng Jieyu is willing. ”

The queen said, "You can tell me first." ”

Dou Zhaoyi said: "Niangniang, why don't you ask the lotus pastor to sing a song for Niangniang?" Your Majesty said back then, holding the lotus on behalf of the shepherd, the face is like a green lotus, and the voice is like a phoenix. We are all blessed, and we have never heard of it. Today, let's touch the light of the mother and listen to the phoenix song of the lotus pastor, right? ”

A trace of embarrassment flashed on Meng Jieyu's face. She doesn't like people to mention her past as a critic in the White House. Over the years, she has become a lotus pastor admired by believers because of her kindness and generosity. Everyone has almost forgotten that it was her singing voice that first touched His Majesty.

Queen Yu glanced at Meng Jieyu and said, "Dou Zhaoyi's memory is good. If Dou Zhaoyi doesn't mention it, I'm about to forget. Meng Jieyu, oh, no, Lotus Pastor, I've never heard you sing. ”

When the queen said so, Meng Jieyu couldn't excuse herself. Her face returned to a smile and said, "Since the queen mother and Dou Zhaoyi said so, then the concubine will be ugly." The concubine has not spoken for many years, if she loses her ugliness, she still hopes that the queen and the sisters will be in the sea. ”

Dou Zhaoyi said: "We have been stained with the light of the queen's mother, and today we are going to feast our ears." ”

The other concubines also nodded frequently.

Meng Jieyu glanced at the lotus flowers in the water, then turned her head, looked at Queen Yu and said: "Niangniang, today Niangniang and her concubines are here to enjoy the lotus in the rain, and the concubines will sing a suitable for the occasion, "Jiangnan Can Pick Lotus", okay?!" ”

"Very good, very good." The Empress nodded.

Meng Jieyu said to Si Xiao: "Just use a tube of dong flute." After speaking, he nodded to Si Xiao and motioned for Si Xiao to start playing.

The melodious hole flute blows. "Jiangnan Can Pick Lotus" is a soothing and brisk folk tune, the song is tactful and smart, like a girl holding a boat to pick lotus on the lake. Meng Jieyu opened her mouth and sang:

"Jiangnan can pick lotus,

Lotus leaf He Tian Tian.

Fish play among lotus leaves,

Fish play lotus leaf east,

Fish play lotus leaf west,

Yuxi lotus leaf south,

Fish play lotus leaves in the north. ”

Meng Jieyu's voice is clear and melodious, and it seems to be integrated with the sound of the dong flute, the sound of rain, and the sound of rain hitting lotus leaves. Queen Yu didn't know much about the rhythm of music, but she was still deeply attracted by Meng Jieyu's voice.

Queen Yu found that when Meng Jieyu finished singing the last word, her eyes inadvertently swept over Dou Zhaoyi, and Meng Jieyu's eyes were filled with deep resentment.

Dou Zhaoyi didn't seem to notice it, and was the first to say: "The Lotus Pastor is worthy of being the Lotus Pastor, this song is really amazing." It's like floating down from the sky. Dou Zhaoyi shook the fan, and looked at the other concubines after speaking.

The other concubines also nodded, "That's true." ”

Meng Jieyu looked at Queen Yu and said, "Niangniang, the concubine is ugly." ”

The queen smiled: "I'm really happy today. As you all know, my temperament is different from ordinary people, I like to listen to the sound of rain, but I don't like singing and dancing. But after listening to Meng Jieyu's music today, I can understand what the sound of heaven is. Just now, what Dou Zhaoyi said is really not bad at all, this is the voice floating down from the sky. Meng Jieyu, you are a jewel in front, and the sisters behind you are going to be embarrassed. ”

Meng Jieyu nodded towards Queen Yu and said, "Niangniang has won the award." The concubine was very clumsy, and the mother smiled. ”

Dou Zhaoyi said: "Today, we still have one missing, if only Yun Jiao'e of Yinglu Palace was here." One is Yun Jiao'e's dance of the sky, and the other is Meng Jieyu's heavenly sound, which is really the most beautiful and elegant supreme joy in the world. ”

Meng Jieyu felt strange, why did Dou Zhaoyi, who has always been cautious in words and deeds, lose her temper today, first moved to let herself sing in front of everyone, and now she actually compares herself with a lowly Liuchuan dancing girl. A trace of unhappiness flashed on Meng Jieyu's face, but she lowered her head and took a sip of tea without speaking. The queen also bowed her head and took a sip of tea without speaking.

Liu Wei keenly captured Meng Jieyu's unhappiness and Queen Yu's silence. He knew that Queen Yu didn't like this Yun Jiao'e, who was born as a dancing girl in Liuchuan and was favored by the emperor, and Meng Jieyu and other concubines also looked down on Yun Jiao'e, who was from a humble background and relied on charm to attract favor, so she came up and joked: "The slave dares to say a word, Dou Zhaoyi's words are bad, so how can Yun Jie'e be compared with Meng Jieyu?" ”

Dou Zhaoyi and Meng Jieyu didn't react. Dou Zhaoyi took a piece of tea and brought it to her mouth and took a bite gently, Meng Jieyu still just lowered her head and took a sip of tea.

Queen Yu glanced at Dou Zhaoyi, then at Meng Jieyu, put down the teacup in her hand, looked at Liu Wu coldly and asked, "Liu Wu, why do you say that?" ”

"Niangniang, today is Niangniang's own person, and there is no outsider, so I forgive the slave and maid for daring to say a word. No matter how favored that Yun Jiao'e is, after all, she is just the origin of a Liuchuan dancing girl, relying on unsightly secret skills and charms, after all, she can't be on the stage! Liu Wei was convinced that his words would be unanimously approved by the other concubines of the Queen of Yu. After he finished speaking, he deliberately lowered his head, waiting for the queen to reward him with something.

Empress Yu picked up the teacup suddenly, threw it in Liu Wu's face, and said sharply: "Dog slave, so bold, dare to belittle His Majesty's concubine?!" ”

Liu Wei was caught off guard, never expecting that his deliberate welcome would annoy Queen Yu. But he was convinced in his heart that Queen Luo must recognize himself from the bottom of his heart, and he also appreciated that he belittled Yun Jiao'e so much, because what he said just now was to say what Queen Luo wanted to say but it was inconvenient to say, which gave Queen Luo a bad breath, so he knelt down disapprerovingly and said, "Niang Niang is angry." The slave lost her words. He felt that the queen was in a good mood today, and at most it would be fine to scold a few times, so he said with a hippie smile: "However, the slave maid looks at her foxy appearance, and it is expected that she will not last long." ”

But Queen Yu was unrelenting: "Bold, dare to be nonsense!" Lapsus linguae? You're crazy! I have decreed many times that after Your Majesty succeeds to the throne, the state affairs will be troubled, and all sisters in the palace should live in harmony, and not cause turmoil and cause chaos to Your Majesty. You have turned a deaf ear to these wills. You are powerful in front of the ladies of the palace on weekdays, I have heard of it, but I have always tolerated you because you have some hard work. Since I arrived at Jianzhang Palace, I have once again made my will clear, you are still the same, serving all the ladies and mothers, without dedication, and there are many omissions, but these are still forgivable sins. But today you slandered His Majesty's concubines in public. If I don't punish you severely, this harem will be lawless in the future! ”

Liu Wu was a little scared at this time, he was worried that he would really be severely punished by the queen, and he would really not be able to get down on his face, and he would not be able to be a person in the palace in the future. So Liu Wu kowtowed a few times and said, "Niangniang is angry, Niangniang forgives her sins, and the slave and maid don't dare anymore, don't dare anymore." Ask the mother to bypass the slave this time. Ask the mother to bypass the slave for this while. ”

Empress Yu summoned a Nangong guard who was guarding the edge of the pavilion and said, "Take Liu Wu out of Jianzhang Palace, and kill him immediately with a rod to set an example." ”

"Ahh All the concubines exclaimed. This is a change that everyone never expected. After the queen entered the palace with the emperor, she brought Liu Wu into the palace and appointed him as the great Changqiu who was in charge of all the affairs of the queen, making Liu Wu suddenly become the second person in the status of the inner servant second only to the middle servant. But now, because of these few words, the queen is going to kill Liu Wu immediately.

Seeing this, Meng Jieyu immediately got up and knelt down first, and the other concubines also knelt down. Meng Jieyu said: "Niang Niang is angry. Da Changqiu was confused for a moment and said the wrong thing. For the sake of Da Changqiu's perennial service to Niangniang and her hard work, Niang Niang spared Da Changqiu this time. ”

Dou Zhaoyi and the other concubines also interceded for Da Changqiu, saying, "Please beg Niang Niang to spare Da Changqiu this time." ”

Queen Yu said coldly: "Sisters, our sisters have been treating you harshly for so many years, but the friendship between our sisters is sincere and deep, in the final analysis, we are all a family, we are all His Majesty's wives and concubines, and there is nothing that cannot be overcome." But it is precisely because of a lowly slave like Liu Wei who plays right and wrong and steps on the high and low, who often sow discord and play right and wrong between us, which makes us more and more divided. Sisters, we are a family, and we are His Majesty's concubines, and we are the heavenly family! What kind of thing is Liu Wei, who dares to use such vicious words to belittle His Majesty's Yun Xuan'e. If we keep such a slave by our side, how can we sisters live in peace?! How can the harem be clean?! Our children are outside, how can we do things for Your Majesty with peace of mind?! You don't have to intercede for him, it's his own fault. Nangong guards, quickly pull him down, take him outside Jianzhang Palace, and immediately kill him with a cane. Don't let him defile my place in Jianzhang Palace! ”

None of the concubines dared to speak.

Liu Wu was carried out by two Nangong guards, and begged for mercy loudly: "Niangniang spare your life, Niangniang spare your life." Spare the slave and maid a dog's life. The slave doesn't dare anymore......"

But Queen Yu didn't even look at Liu Wei.

She stood up, helped Dou Zhaoyi and Meng Jieyu up, and then said to the other concubines, "You all get up." Today, our good intentions have been disturbed by this dog minion. It's a pity that this good rain and this good lotus. However, Liu Wu is also worth dying, and today he is just borrowing his dog's head to make an example of him! As you have seen, I will not allow anyone to stir up the friendship between our sisters in the future. I still say the same thing, now the situation is different, we must be considerate of Your Majesty's difficulties, and understand the difficulties of our children who are guarding in other counties, and we must not cause trouble in the palace, tell right and wrong, distract Your Majesty, and let the children worry. If there is a similar situation, I will not spare it. ”

"Whoa." The concubines lowered their heads and said.

The Empress sighed and said, "Hey! My good mood these days has been completely disturbed by this dog minion. ”

Dou Zhaoyi and Meng Jieyu took the concubines and hurriedly leaned over and kowtowed: "Niangniang is angry." The mother was angry. ”

The queen said, "Get up quickly." Get up. Killing a willow is not a big deal. I'm just worried that you're thinking I'm still being as you as I used to be. Then all my heart will be in vain. In His Majesty's harem, there will never be peace. As she spoke, there were tears in her eyes.

Dou Zhaoyi looked at the gap between the queen and wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said, "Niangniang is relieved. The mother's hard work, the concubines all clearly see it in their hearts. Niangniang is all for His Majesty's country, for His Majesty to be at ease and free from worries. Although the concubines are dull, they can clearly see the good intentions of the mother and understand them. The concubines will never disappoint their mothers! If you go against the mother's wishes, you will be punished by the mother. ”

"The concubines will never disappoint their mothers!" Meng Jieyu and the concubines also kowtowed.

"That's good. Arise ye. Let's disperse today. Back to the palace. ”

"Whoa."

The Empress Doomed Expression, surrounded by the chamberlains and the palace maids, walked to the painting boat and left by boat.
