Chapter 98: Words of the Heart (3)
King Su Li had no intention of angering Mei Liangyu, but he just wanted to test it, but he didn't expect him to really not hide it at all, and talked to him directly.
"Ouch, the prince's words are serious, I still have the southeast behind me, how can I think about it, where do you dare!"
Gags are what King Su Li is best at, and I don't know how many people he has fooled like this.
Mei Liangyu at this moment, if he hadn't been angry in the palace, he wouldn't have had such a big reaction, at least he would have restrained himself in front of him.
If you care, you will be confused, and there is nothing wrong with this sentence.
"If King Su Li doesn't have anything else, the palace will send off guests!"
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and was about to go out, but King Su Li hurriedly grabbed him.
"Hey, King Beiqing is so impatient. There are still more than a month to go, and the hundred countries of Chaohe are going back, when will the mutual trade contract be signed? ”
That's what he's doing today.
At the end of the year, that is, only? For more than two months, after the subject country left, they were generally not allowed to enter Beijing unless they were called.
It's no wonder that King Su Li is in a hurry, the southeast road is far away, and it will take at least half a month to go back, if this contract is not successful, I am afraid that it will be difficult to open this mouth in the future.
"King Su Li doesn't have to worry, since Beixia will not break his promise to trade with each other, it's better to wait patiently."
Miyazawa Kun had said before, intentionally or unintentionally, that this mutual trade would be of great benefit to the southeast on the surface, but it was actually a good opportunity for Northern Xia to recuperate and fill the treasury.
However, outsiders do not know the current situation of the treasury of Northern Xia, and they still think that Northern Xia is as rich and rich as before.
He also deliberately wanted to delay the process, so that the southeast would not feel that Northern Xia was facilitating this matter, and he wanted to make the southeast anxious.
Mei Liangyu looked at King Su Li like this, Miyazawa Kun's approach was effective, and he was already in a hurry.
"King Beiqing, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, in case you don't sign the contract in the end of Beixia, what else can I do with you? It's not up to you to agree or disagree with one of your mouths! ”
He was a little annoyed, he came to Northern Xia from the southeast thousands of miles away, in fact, it was for this matter, otherwise he would not have come in person.
Now he has to put it off again and again, making him wonder if Beixia really has this sincerity.
"Steward Wei, send off!"
Mei Liangyu didn't pay attention to his words, called Steward Wei, and forcibly invited King Su Li out of the palace.
"King Beiqing, you are such hospitality! I've been here for most of the day, and I don't even have saliva, and now that things haven't been discussed, you're going to kick me out! ”
King Su Li can be regarded as the lord of a country, where is there a time when he is swept away, so now he is extremely angry.
"The next time King Su Li comes in from the main gate, the Beiqing Palace, will definitely take King Su Li as a guest and send off guests!"
King Su Li scolded and was kicked out of the palace, and he didn't forget to leave a cruel word when he was gone.
"King Beiqing, I still have a trick to make, I see that you won't even be able to cry when the time comes!"
Mei Liangyu only thought that he was angry and said happy things, and he didn't take it to heart.
If you want to say that King Su Li is a person, he just can't stay with him for a long time, and he can't do anything else, that is, to observe people, which is really called Eagle Eye.
If you talk to him a few more words, your heart will be exposed, and he is used to asking questions, and he can always make people say some loopholes.
For such people, it is better to stay away.
――――――――――――
Things inside and outside the palace have come to an end, and peaceful days always pass quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it is already seven or eight days later.
Mo Nan had already left Beijing and rushed in the direction of Suizhou, and he was the only one, single-handed, and no one cared.
In contrast, Zhou Yu led more than a dozen teams of people, and when they set off from the capital, the people stood on the streets to cheer for him.
These days, Miyazawa Kun has never entered the door of Qingli Palace, and the harem attendants have not summoned anyone else since Xu Guiren's incident.
Originally, Mo Ran would pass the time as before, but it was just a day of drawing and embroidering patterns.
I don't want to come to a person -- the Queen Mother.
This made everyone up and down the Qingli Palace panic.
If you want to say that this queen mother, since Miyazawa Kun ascended the throne, she can be regarded as living in Deokshou Palace, and she doesn't care much about big and small things in the palace.
Why did you come to this remote Qingli Palace today?
"Niangniang, the slave maid dresses you up more festively, and it looks good, besides, the queen mother is getting older, and her favorite thing is the festive and bright color."
Cen Er and the others have been cleaning up Mo Ran in various ways since they received the news that the Queen Mother was coming at noon in the morning, sticking a flower for a while, and feeling that the decal was too frivolous for a while.
Now I brought her this bright pink shirt, not counting the golden hairpin on her head, her dress was too bright and dazzling.
"Okay, Cen Er, you don't have to get it, it's just a good body, I'm like this on weekdays, and the Queen Mother is just here to see if I, the queen, can afford it, no matter how I dress up, it's useless."
Cen Er was reluctant to put down the clothes in her hand, according to her meaning, Mo Ran today could be regarded as the first time to see the Queen Mother alone.
If you don't use your heart in this dress, I'm afraid that the Queen Mother will think that she is too rude.
The left and right clothes were worn on Mo Ran's body, she didn't want to wear them, and Cen Er had no choice.
But as soon as I stopped here for a while, I saw Cen Er coming in with fat powder blush again.
"Niangniang, this makeup still needs to be painted, at least the complexion is better, Niangniang was sick a few days ago and her body was boiled out, and now she looks very haggard, put on some fat powder, put on blush, and look more energetic."
Seeing her looking at herself with hopeful eyes, Mo Ran nodded.
But Cen Er's painting is not as simple as previously said.
Mo Ran's glasses belong to the more round kind, they are still shining, and the corners of their eyes are picked, they look pitiful, extremely seductive, and very cute.
But in front of an elder like the Queen Mother, such eyes are what the concubine looks like.
Cen Er drew a few lines on the side of her eyes with a snail, so that the corners of her eyes did not look so high, but looked a little pure.
The rest of the places are also extremely attentive, the fat powder is very delicate, the blush is just right, and Mo Ran came with her.
This kind of painting is nearly an hour, and before I put down the things in my hand, I heard a report that the Queen Mother was coming.
"The Queen Mother has arrived!"
Cen Er put a mole on the corner of Mo Ran's eye, and as soon as she put down the pen, the Queen Mother came in, but she didn't see the two of them flustered.
"The concubines see the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, Wanfu Jin'an, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."
This set of palace rules was still when Mo Ran was just named Concubine Li, and a few old ministers from the Ministry of Rites came to the palace to teach, and I thought that I couldn't use it, but I didn't expect that it didn't make her lose face today.
"Get up."
Mo Ran's etiquette made the Queen Mother very satisfied.
"Thank you, Empress Dowager."
Mo Ran breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, if the Queen Mother really found fault, it was really not something she could prevent.
"The mourning family heard that your illness was caused by the previous concubine? How's it going? ”
Mo Ran had just sat on His Royal Highness's seat, and when he heard the Queen Mother's question, the expression on his face stiffened slightly.
Miyazawa Kun did not tell the Queen Mother that Mo Ran had a miscarriage.
Except for the few people who were present at the time, he told everyone that Concubine Tingfei framed her, causing her to fall seriously ill, and Concubine Tingfei committed suicide because of self-reflection and then chagrin.
The real reason is that it is hidden from everyone.
Therefore, outsiders still think that this great change in the harem is just because of the struggle for power and love between the concubines, but no one knows about the mistakes made by the court concubines.
"Back to the Queen Mother, the concubine's body is almost good, but the bottom of the body has to be raised, and the concubine Xie the Queen Mother."
Mo Ran ignored her first question, and the answer was also extremely straightforward, there was nothing wrong with it, and it didn't sound so pleasant.
With such a dry reply, the Queen Mother was also a little embarrassed and coughed slightly.
"Ahem, ahem."
"Queen, you are now the master of the first palace, the mother of the country in Northern Xia, you should have some mind, don't chase and fight hard, in the end, you have to look at it better."
Mo Ran, who said the Queen Mother's words, was a little confused, why did she chase after her?
"The concubine is ignorant, and I ask the queen mother to make it clear and give me one or two advice."
Seeing that Mo Ran had already spoken, the Queen Mother no longer shy away from anything.
"Court Concubine...... Isn't it already dead, the queen should stop targeting the He family in everything, make the emperor embarrassed, and your reputation is not good. ”
The words were clear, but Mo Ran was still confused, he didn't care that anyone had targeted the He family.
"The queen mother showed that the concubines have never targeted the He family."
The Queen Mother was a little annoyed by her tough tone, and her tone was also a little bad.
"The mourning family is for your good! The dignified queen, if it is for such a thing as collecting the body of a criminal concubine, she will suppress the ministers everywhere in the court, and if she says it, the royal face will be lost! ”
Mo Ran was a little dumbfounded, and asked the Queen Mother a question that looked stupid.
"The Queen Mother...... What collects corpses? ”
The Queen Mother sulked a little, ignored her words, and tilted her head to the side.
Mo Ran turned to look at Cen Er, and found that her expression was also very unnatural, a little stiff, and he didn't dare to look up at her.
"Cen Er! Tell me, what is the corpse?! ”
Cen Er lowered her head and said in a whisper: "Hui Niangniang, the emperor...... collect the body of the court concubine, and return it to ...... With the gift of a noble concubine, he was buried in the imperial mausoleum......"
"When?"
"It's ...... On the day Niangniang was made queen......"
No wonder, no wonder my brother entered the palace in such a hurry that day, no wonder I asked her if she was okay, no wonder I said that I supported her......
I see.
"Hehe, hehe, hehe."
――――――――
On this day, the He Mansion was also as restless as the Qingli Palace.
When the moon is dark and the wind is high
A coffin was quietly carried into the He Mansion through the back door.
A hand reached out from within
