The humble concubine pursed her lips and sneered: "Concubine Xian Niangniang has also worked hard all night, after all, she has managed the internal affairs of the king for so many years, presumably this phoenix seal has been touched several times, unlike the concubine, I have only seen it a few times!" ”

These words are like a sharp dagger piercing the heart of Concubine Wang Xian, she has been in charge of palace affairs for many years, and it can even be said that she is acting as the queen.

It's a pity that the birth of the emperor this time not only has no reward, but a series of events after that, even cutting and punishing, almost lost the power of the prime minister in his hand, plus the newcomer who entered the palace, the family background is not bad, it is conceivable what a heavy slap in the face of Concubine Wang Xian.

Yan Shi saw that the master was speechless for a long time, pinched her jade hand, and reminded: "Niangniang, it's time to say hello to the Queen Mother." ”

Concubine Wang Xian adjusted her breathing, showed a gentle and dignified smile again, and said: "I heard that the eldest princess Yueheng has been getting worse and worse recently. ”

For the first time, the graceful face of the humble concubine showed fear, and when she saw her take a deep breath, she got up and saluted, and said, "The concubine has thanked the virtuous concubine for her grace." ”

"After gossiping for a long time, the queen mother should be in a hurry."

The Empress Dowager of Jueyue is not the phoenix hall that no one can go in to ask for peace, only those who are above the fifth grade are fortunate to enter the palace to bow, and those below the fifth grade such as Shu Concubine and Lan Concubine have to kneel outside the hall to salute, and those in the South Garden can only be outside the door of the West Garden.

After hearing this, Yingluo next to the Empress Dowager Yue came out to speak, "The Empress Dowager has a decree, please come forward and serve." ”

Wu Meiren, who was kneeling behind Concubine Lan, was startled, and before she could react, Xiao Gong'e stepped forward to carefully help her up, and Yingluo saluted: "The Queen Mother said that the little master is pregnant, and she can't be exposed to the wind and sun for a long time, so she ordered the old slave to invite the little master to enter the palace to rest." ”

Wu Meiren stumbled and thanked her, sweating profusely and following Yingluo in, waiting in the Feng Palace, Concubine Wang Xian and others had already taken their seats according to their positions, and after Wu Meiren came in, she didn't dare to look at the person on top, so she only bowed her head and knelt down to worship.

The Empress Dowager Yuyue waited for her to finish worshipping, then she stretched out her hand to help her, and said, "Wu Meiren doesn't have to be polite, get up, come to the mourning family." ”

Wu Meiren fell to the ground, her body trembled, she didn't know how to react at all, and then she heard a "come here" before thanking, got up from the ground, and bowed forward.

The Empress Dowager Yue directly pulled her to sit on her couch, so frightened that Wu Meiren didn't dare to sit upright at all, leaned slightly sideways, straightened her upper body, and pointed her toes on the ground, ready to stand up at any time.

Empress Dowager Jueyue said affectionately: "Silly boy, what are you afraid of, tassels." ”

The tassel presented a pomegranate wrapped in gold silk beads, and the Empress Dowager Jueyue personally put it on for her, and said: "If you can give birth to a grandson for the mourning family, the mourning family will be the master, and you will be promoted by two levels, and you will be made a concubine, your emperor, the virtuous concubine will definitely be able to treat her as a parent, and take care of it, even if she gives birth to the emperor, there is also Qin Jieyu, and she will not treat you badly." ”

Wu Meimei was shocked, forgot the etiquette for a while, and stared at the Empress Dowager Yue's kind smile, only the noble concubines of the fifth grade in the palace can take care of their own children, from the concubines of the fifth grade, this means that no matter if she gives birth to a boy or a girl in the future, she will give someone else's life, otherwise, if she really gives birth to Lin'er, what will she have to seal a noble concubine.

Bai Suyan glanced at Concubine Wang Xian, whose eyes were dark, and guessed whether this meant that Concubine Wang Xian could no longer raise them, so she could only raise the children of low-ranking concubines, but the Wu family was not afraid of diaphragm?

Mrs. Wen Yu probably really learned a lesson, but she didn't jump out to speak, Concubine Wang Xian's hand in her sleeve tightened again, and finally couldn't help but say: "Queen Mother, the concubine has just been blessed, it is the time when she can't take care of it, and Wu Meiren is not a concubine's Yuxi Palace, it is better to be taken care of by Qin Jieyu, and it is convenient for Wu Meiren to visit." ”

The Empress Dowager Yuyue lowered her eyelids, let go of Wu Meiren, and said indifferently: "It's good if you think it's good, the mourning family is tired, you all disperse!" ”

The people here in Beiyuan dispersed, and the concubines and concubines in Nanyuan knelt outside the gate of Xiyuan Palace, Mo said that the Empress Dowager was solemn, and she could only see the pearls on her head at the end of the hall reflecting the sunshine and shining.

Only Xiao Gong'e came out and said: "The Queen Mother is tired today, please let the little master disperse today." ”

The concubines of Nanyuan stood up under the leader of the Lin in the room, and Concubine Wang Xian and the others came out of the door, and Nanyuan hurriedly retreated to both sides, bowed and saluted, and waited for the palace concubines of Beiyuan to go first.

Concubine Yun walked behind Mrs. Yaohua, and when she saw that Xu Fengren, whose face was still not very good, she only smiled and greeted, so she didn't make any more movements, but it was enough to attract curiosity or disdain from others.

Xu Fengren has been sick for many days, his spirit is not good, he was watched by a group of people like monkeys, ashamed and annoyed, but he was helpless, Miyagi Sensen, the rules are complicated, the upper and lower are respectful and humble, and the distinction is clear, even if she is really seen as a monkey, what can she do?

Can you shout in anger, shouldn't you be this flattery?

No, she can't, there has always been only a concubine who has been abandoned, and there is no king who has been left out in the cold, even if she is rejected in the future, she can only be trapped and locked, and besides, she is better alive than dead, at least she can give the Xu family a chance to improve.

Mrs. Yaohua came to the sedan chair, turned her head to Bai Suyan and invited with a smile: "Although it is not yet summer, but the infinite blue pear blossom is just right at the moment, there is no charm, if Concubine Yan is free, why not come and sit?" ”

Bai Suyan bowed her knees and said respectfully: "Xie Niangniang's blue eyes, but today's concubines still have internal affairs to deal with, and the concubines will come to visit in the future." ”

Mrs. Yaohua said: "Then the palace will sweep the couch and wait." ”

However, after saying three sentences, it instantly passed three bends in everyone's hearts, and they all dialysed out the "answer" they thought they thought, and their faces were clear.

The tassel said goodbye to the palace concubines, and returned to the Fengdian to restore their lives, "Queen Mother, all the ladies have left the West Garden." ”

The Empress Dowager Yuyue snorted, and suddenly said, "Tassel, do you say that Concubine Xian will understand?" ”

The tassel said politely: "Concubine Xian Niangniang is wise and intelligent, she will definitely understand, and if there is no Queen Mother in the future, even if Concubine Xian Niangniang only gives birth to an emperor, she will be safe and worry-free." ”

Empress Dowager Jueyue said: "The mourning family is afraid that their longevity is limited, and they will not be sheltered for long, the monarch remembers the love between mother and son, and retreats again and again to the mourning family, the virtuous concubine, and the mother of the mourning family. ”

Tassel carefully rubbed his shoulders beside the Empress Dowager Yue, and said: "The gentleman is still young, and he has just been drafted, and he is not in a hurry to raise a child at this moment, that Shen Meiren was specially sent in by Mrs. Wang, and that Ni Cairen, it seems that she is also falling to Concubine Xian, and the Empress Dowager does not need to worry." ”

"Shen Meiren," Empress Dowager Jueyue sneered, "Sister-in-law is really hearted, such a remote place, almost all of the daughters in the side branch who don't have much movement with my Wang family have been dug up, and there is a serious relative who is a waiter, pity the Jin family, pity the Jin nobles, I am afraid that I will be stepped on as a stepping stone." ”

Tassel didn't dare to say more, the people sent before had verified that the ancestor of the Shen family was married to a daughter of the side branch of the Wang family in the early years, and later due to the decline of the Shen family, he was only in the original Shaanxi and Beijing.

Decades have passed, and the two families have not moved around for a long time, until Master Shen's generation married the daughter of the Jin family and gave birth to "Shen Man'er".

And just three years ago, the real "Shen Man'er" drowned, and Mrs. Wang's Qian ordered her henchmen to go to "contact" the feelings, and I don't know what benefits were promised, so that a concubine of the Wang family who had never walked around the capital replaced "Shen Man'er", and she really worked hard.

Master Shen is not angry, he has been exiled to other places, and the Jin family has only seen "Shen Man'er" a few times when he was a child, and even better, because of the loss of his beloved daughter, Mrs. Shen's Jin family was actually "in a trance", and was soon coaxed by Master Shen and the current Shen Man'er.

If Concubine Wang Xian really raised the prince of Shen Mei's life, even if she couldn't hold it, the Wang family would definitely give her full support.

The world is unpredictable!

Empress Dowager Yuyue said tiredly: "My children are already emperors, and the Wang family is now also infinitely beautiful, no one can stop them, what else do they want?" Learn from Cao Cao and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes? My father often said that I was bold and smart, and I didn't lose my son, so he should also know that I was his daughter and the mother of the king, and a mother would love her son more after all! ”

Tassel was taken aback and asked, "Is the Queen Mother planning to do it herself?" ”

Empress Dowager Jueyue said: "The mourning family can't let the king bear the reputation of treating the queen mother on his back, then the mourning family can only do it, tassels, secretly summon the ceremony, let her start to give the 'condensation incense' to the virtuous concubine, and Shen Meiren, must not let the prince crawl out of the stomach of the Wang family!" ”

"The old slave takes orders!"

Ning Lu Xiang, the medicine specially prepared by the Wang family's doctor to control and deal with women in the backyard, the concubine Zhen back then, and now Mrs. Wen Yu are all ruined on this medicine.

However, this is probably the first time that the self-family has used it on the self-family.
