Chapter 119: Punishing the High Concubine
There is still Qiu Yue secretly greedy in this hall, and she also wants to taste it.
"Qiuyue, you can go too." Yue Qingqian said with a light smile while drinking the soup.
"Thank you, mother." Qiu Yue got permission and left very happily.
After they left, Yue Qingqian hurriedly put down the soup in her hand, and couldn't suppress her cough anymore.
"Ahem, cough, cough ......" But even though she coughed, she still restrained herself and didn't let the cough be too loud.
During this time, although my body has improved a lot, I will cough from time to time. I don't know if it's because the emotional ups and downs last time were too big and hurt my inside.
She was afraid that the people around her would worry, so most of the time she restrained her.
Yue Qingqian coughed for a while, and it took a long time to ease up.
She frowned, the cough was falling.
On that day, after Qin Moxuan punished Gao Xiaoqian, he walked all the roads he passed that day, but he still couldn't find it.
After that, for several days, his face was horribly gloomy.
Almost to this extent, none of the ministers dared to disobey, and the palace people who served around them were also trembling and cautious, and even the harem concubines did not make trouble.
His Majesty had just punished the concubine, and then he didn't have a good face for several days. Everyone thought that the concubine had done something that angered His Majesty.
Later, when I inquired, I learned that it was the concubine who insulted Mr. Zhang, and it happened to be heard by His Majesty.
The concubines were already very stammering with Zhang Quansheng, who was waiting by Qin Moxuan's side, but now that there is Gao Xiaoqian's matter, everyone naturally becomes more respectful to this Zhang Quansheng, and no one dares to offend.
Although Zhang Quansheng was moved by His Majesty's maintenance of himself that day, he also knew that His Majesty might have been so angry because the concubine mentioned the queen's mother.
Moreover, His Majesty seems to have lost something, and his behavior that day was somewhat abnormal.
But Rao is that he serves by His Majesty's side every day, but he doesn't know what His Majesty has lost.
I only know that His Majesty should cherish that thing very much, otherwise he wouldn't have looked for it for so long.
And after that, he had a gloomy face for several days. Come to think of it, I have had something to lose somewhat.
He also tried to find out His Majesty's tone, but he did not find any results, and finally had to give up.
In the Luanfeng Palace, Qiu Yue waited by Yue Qingqian's side and talked about some things that had happened in the palace in recent days.
"Niangniang, I heard that a few days ago, His Majesty punished Gao Concubine for insulting Manager Zhang and knelt down. I heard that I knelt for three hours, and fell to the bottom of the dark in the afternoon. After that, he was grounded for three months, and he had to copy Buddhist scriptures a hundred times. ”
Yue Qingqian didn't have any expression on his face, but said: "Manager Zhang has been waiting by His Majesty's side since he was a child, and it is normal for His Majesty to be angry. ”
"But the punishment seems to be heavier. After that, His Majesty's face did not look better. Those who serve His Majesty are careful. It seems a little strange......"
Yue Qingqian listened, and did feel that this matter seemed a little strange in her heart.
However, she didn't say it, but said, "Perhaps, Your Majesty has encountered some other troubles." ”
"Maybe." Qiu Yue didn't say anything more.
But Yue Qingqian was in deep thought, she wondered if the reason why Qin Moxuan was like this was because something had happened in the court?
Although she made it clear to Qin Moxuan, as the queen of the Western Qin Kingdom and as a member of the Yue family, there was still a bond between her and Qin Moxuan.
She still has to continue to help Qin Moxuan and complete the great cause of dominating the world.
But at present, she is not ready to meet Qin Moxuan for the time being.
She thought about it, and then said to Qiu Yue: "Qiu Yue, you go and inquire, what has happened in the DPRK recently?" ”
"Yes."
Qiu Yue was about to go out, when Qiu Shui came out of the inner room, muttering in his mouth.
Qiu Yue felt strange and asked, "Qiu Shui, what are you muttering about?" ”
Qiushui said: "The handkerchief embroidered by Niangniang herself seems to be missing." ”
Yue Qingqian was a little strange and said, "But I forgot where to put it?" ”
Qiushui shook his head and said, "The handkerchief, the slave and maid put it in the cabinet and put it on the brocade box where the handkerchief was placed." But the slaves and maids searched for them, but they were none. ”
Yue Qing frowned, and also felt that this matter was very strange.
Qiu Yue also wondered: "How can you be so decent, but you can't see it?" Could it be that someone else took it to wash it? ”
Qiushui shook his head and said: "Niangniang's handkerchief is washed by the slave maid herself, and she will not fake her hands to others." ”
"That's weird, could it be lost?"
Qiushui didn't know what to say, and said a little frustratedly: "Niangniang, the slave maid didn't take care of the only handkerchief you embroidered, please punish the slave maid." ”
Yue Qingqian suppressed the strange feeling in her heart and said with a smile: "It's just a handkerchief, if you lose it, you will lose it." How can this palace blame you, don't get up quickly. ”
Qiushui was a little sad and said, "But the handkerchief of the mother is so well embroidered, it's all because the slave didn't keep it." ”
Yue Qingqian said helplessly: "Get up, if you lose it, just embroider another piece in the palace." If you kneel badly, who will pay for the autumn water in this palace? ”
Qiuyue and Qiushui couldn't help laughing, and Qiushui was even more disgusted: "Niangniang, the slave is sad." ”
Qiu Yue couldn't look at it first, walked over and helped Qiu Shui up, and said: "Niang Niang said that I don't blame you, if you kneel again, you will let Niang Niang suffer and coax you." ”
Qiushui blushed a little.
Yue Qingqian smiled, "Come on, you all go and get busy." ”
"Yes."
Qiuyue and Qiushui retreated, and the two were still playing quietly.
Yue Qingqian smiled and shook her head, but this matter still made her feel strange.
The handkerchief was embroidered with his name on it, which was too eye-catching.
If you lose it in your own palace, it's fine, but if you lose it elsewhere, it's not good.
Yue Qingqian thought about it and left it behind, although she had a faint bad premonition, but in the end she didn't care too much.
If someone really makes a fuss about her handkerchief, then she must be able to perceive it in advance. It's a bit unfounded to worry about this now.
……
"Your Majesty, it seems that the queen has sent Qiuyue to inquire about the affairs of the court these days." Zhang Quansheng told Qin Moxuan about this.
His Majesty and Niangniang hadn't seen each other for a long time, and he could only be anxious by the sidelines. Now that the queen has finally taken action, he is a little happy.
Perhaps, the queen mother has figured it out.
Qin Moxuan paused, his eyes were deep, but his tone seemed to be indifferent: "Really? ”
Zhang Quansheng has been by Qin Moxuan's side for so long, so he naturally knows his thoughts.
"Yes, today the minion met Qiuyue on the road, and she asked the minion personally."
"And she...... What do you know? Although Qin Moxuan's eyes were still on the fold in his hand, the hand holding the fold tightened.
Zhang Quansheng replied truthfully and said, "The slave did not inform Qiuyue of what happened in the court, it was Qiuyue who inquired about it and confirmed it to the minion. There is something wrong with the reform, and there is also the matter of the unjust case, these two things must be known to the queen. ”
Qin Moxuan lowered his head and thought about it, could it be that Qing Qian wanted to help in these things?
"In addition, about the ...... What else do you know about the Queen? Do you know why she suddenly asked this? ”
Although Zhang Quansheng didn't let Qiu Yue get any news from him, he got a lot of words from Qiu Yue, some of which Qiu Yue said herself.
He replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the servant learned from Qiu Yue that the queen mother asked Qiu Yue to inquire about this because she learned that Her Majesty was in a bad mood in recent days. The slave thought that Queen Xu was worried that His Majesty was in a bad mood because of the affairs of the DPRK and China, and she wanted to share His Majesty's worries. ”
Zhang Quansheng said clearly, and thought: Now, Your Majesty will never have a cold war with Niangniang again.
He secretly observed his master's face, and sure enough, His Majesty's face changed instantly.
It can be seen that His Majesty is also happy in his heart.
After a long time, Qin Mo Xuan said: "Gu knows, if you ask after Qiuyue, you can tell the truth." ”
Zhang Quansheng happily should.
Between His Majesty and Niangniang, the solid ice that is lying across is finally about to break. After that, it should be spring blossoms.
Yue Qingqian got Qiu Yue's inquiry in Luanfeng Palace, and she didn't know what was going on, so she sighed helplessly.
This matter is fragmented, especially the unjust case, which involves the first king, but Yue Qingqian doesn't know what happened.
How does this make her come up with a solution?
"Niangniang, the slave maid also asked Manager Zhang, but she couldn't ask anything from Manager Zhang's mouth. I'm afraid I can't hide this from Your Majesty. ”
Qiu Yue naturally calculated it a long time ago, and said a lot of things about her mother to Manager Zhang. Thinking about it, Manager Zhang will definitely inform His Majesty of all this, so that His Majesty will know that Niangniang is still concerned about Your Majesty.
In this way, His Majesty and Niangniang can also reconcile earlier.
Yue Qing stroked her forehead, but she forgot to warn Qiu Yue. However, that's it, Qin Moxuan will always know anyway.
She got up and walked to the bookcase, and said, "Qiuyue, grind, this palace wants to write a letter to Your Majesty." ”
Qiu Yue was a little surprised, but she also hurried over to polish the ink, and she was very happy in her heart.
However, she didn't understand very well, and said while grinding ink: "Niangniang, why don't you go directly to the Chengqian Palace to find Your Majesty in person, but instead write a letter?" ”
How can this letter be said clearly in person, Qiu Yue muttered in her heart.
Yue Qingqian did not answer Qiuyue's words, but took the pen, dipped it in ink, and put pen to paper on the letter.
roughly talked about the preliminary solutions to some of the problems encountered in the reform, and also mentioned that he did not know everything, and hoped that Qin Moxuan could tell him. And the unjust case, she only knows part of the matter.
In the end, I roughly said that she is still the queen of the Western Qin Kingdom and his courtier. As a courtier, he naturally has to solve the problem for him.
However, she also euphemistically mentioned that it was best for them not to see each other for now.
