When Gu Nian took the maid to the side hall, he really saw the Mo Fei girl.

However, I didn't see the eldest princess of Tong'an.

Gu Nian glanced at the astragalus, and the astragalus said in a low voice, "She is sitting in the gold-topped vermilion wheel car of the princess's mansion. ”

Seeing Gu Nian coming in, Mo Fei looked at her, her chin raised slightly, probably thinking of something, she eased up again, stood up, squeezed out a smile and said, "Nian Nian." ”

Gu Nian was familiar with her like this, paused, and said lightly, "Miss Mo came to the door alone?" ”

Mo Fei's expression changed slightly, "My grandmother and I first arrived in the capital, and we have nowhere to go, speaking of which, from your father, I am also your cousin, from your mother, we are also relatives."

It's a pity that I haven't been able to see Jing Ning's demeanor. ”

She took Gu Nian's hand and said in a low voice, "Niannian, although I am the same age as you, I am always older than you, I really hate to treat you as my own daughter, so I told you this."

On my cousin's side, the future succession to the title will be your little family, you can't let any woman enter the door. ”

"The best thing is to find someone who is willing not to have children, so that it will not hinder your son.

Don't blame me for being troublesome. I was very anxious to watch. Speaking of which, at my age, it would be great to have a ready-made child for me to raise and let me suffer less. ”

Mo Fei said this, only to say that she was willing to give up childbirth, and she would not snatch the title of King Nasu, but only wanted to marry Gu Shi'an.

Gu Nian couldn't figure it out, his father clearly said back then that he would not marry again, even if he was a side concubine, he didn't want to ask for it, why was Mo Fei so persistent in marrying him?

Although her father's affectionate appearance is very good in the eyes of outsiders, she thinks that she should not marry such a man who is affectionate to his former wife.

There are so many people's feelings, and if they give, they will give.

What's more, how can the living fight the dead?

She thought about it, smiled slightly, and said, "Thank you, cousin, I have taken everything you said to heart." ”

Mo Fei was bent on making a good impression on Gu Nian, she was bent on marrying Gu Shi'an, originally her grandmother, Princess Changning, said that she was a good person, but she was unwilling to give in casually.

To put it mildly, let her grandmother take her into the capital, thinking that she could be closer to Gu Shi'an, and get closer to the water and the moon first.

It's just that she went to Suwang's Mansion several times, but General Tie guarded the door, and the porter either said that he entered the palace, or that he was in the Jinwangfu.

She wanted to please Gu Nian, but seeing her indifferent attitude, she was a little unwilling, so she said, "I've been in Beijing for so long, and I've never seen Xiao Shizi, I don't know if I can meet it?" ”

Gu Nian smiled and answered the question, "Cousin, today is the day to enter the palace to meet the queen, why isn't my cousin tired?" ”

Hearing these words, Mo Fei bit his lip and couldn't hide his annoyance, "I have a humble status and didn't enter the palace to see the queen." ”

"Oh!" Gu Nian dragged out his tone, "I see, but I went to the palace today, and now, the whole person is very tired, cousin, why don't we talk about it another day?" ”

After finishing speaking, she realized that she was probably influenced by Xiao Yue, and she spoke unconsciously with a little 'crazy' nature, and she didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing.

However, speaking like this is particularly relieving.

She really doesn't need to deal with such an unknown person, don't say that Gu Shi'an is not interested in her, even if Gu Shi'an is interested in her, she hasn't entered the door to be Princess Su yet.

What's more, she is already a married daughter, and there is really no conflict with the future princess.

As for the title, there is no title of King Su, and there is also the title of Prince of Jin to inherit.

As for the other children, in her opinion, the children's path still has to go on their own.

No matter how much parents give, the children don't cherish it, they can't manage it, and it's still in vain.

High beds and soft pillows can only wear down people's will.

Mo Fei was stunned and said, "Is this your tutoring rule?" ”

"No, it has nothing to do with my family's parenting rules." Gu Nianqian replied with a smile, "It's just, what do you mean by coming to the door like this?" Did you recommend a pillow to my father? It's just that if you want to recommend a pillow for yourself, you should also go to my father.

Back then, when I was in the Southern Xinjiang Palace, my father had already made it clear that he would not marry you, would he? ”

Mo Fei stood up suddenly, shook his sleeves and said, "I thought that you were also his daughter, so I would meet you and say a few words, but it turned out that your palace was such a way of hospitality, so rude." ”

Seeing this, the maid standing beside her also helped, "If Her Royal Highness the princess knows, only those who feel sorry for the girl and are angry for the girl." ”

Gu Nian didn't think so in his heart, the eldest princess of Changning has gone through several dynasties, although the Mo family is now in decline, but it is also because of the lack of prosperity.

In the heart of every emperor, there is still a little position, after all, she does not form a party for personal gain, firmly follows the emperor, does not participate in standing in line, and does not covet the merits of the dragon.

Maybe this can't make the Mo family prominent, but it can keep the Mo family undefeated and not withdraw from the aristocratic circle.

Gu Nian thought in his heart, but said in his mouth, "I thought that Miss Mo and I didn't have any friendship, but they just knew each other."

But the girl looked at me with a motherly eye, which I couldn't stand it, after all, my mother had been dead for many years. ”

Mo Fei turned around and walked out, "Hmph, I want to see, the day I entered the Suwang Mansion, do you worship me or not." ”

The confidence in her words makes people feel that she is just around the corner to be the housewife of King Su's mansion.

Gu Nian didn't pay attention to her wild words, but said with a smile, "Then I'll wait and see." ”

Mo Fei threw up his sleeves and left, seeing that she was far away, Huang Qi frowned and said, "This Mo girl, where did she get the guts, speaking of which, the eldest princess of Changning seems to be a very reasonable person, why is her granddaughter so domineering?" ”

After Gu Niancong woke up, she saw too many people like this, she shook her head and left Mo Fei behind.

Whether her father continues to continue the strings or not, she supports them, after all, life is lived by herself, like people drinking water, knowing their own warmth and coldness. Even if she is a daughter, she has no blame.

*

On the first day of the seventh month, Gu Nian put on a cumbersome and gorgeous princess dress and entered the palace to meet the queen.

The first emperor has not passed for a hundred days, although it is said to be simple, the palace is still told, even Fengyi Palace is no exception.

In Fengyi Palace, the original crown princess, now Queen Jiang sits on the top, wearing a pearl and jade phoenix crown, and only some pearls are embellished on the head except for a phoenix wings with seven treasures embedded on six sides.

That's it, it still looks graceful, lining the concubines of the new monarch like slag of wood.

There are not many people in the new monarch's harem, one queen, one concubine and two concubines, and three other nobles, that's all.

Those who are qualified to sit in Fengyi Palace are all concubines or above, and there are only three.

Gu Nian can see a look at a glance without traces, and his appearance is not bad, but he is not as good as Queen Jiang, and his family background is not as good.

Those who can seal concubines and concubines have all given birth, but the child born to Queen Jiang is the eldest son, although this time when the seal was divided, the prince was not crowned, but it is not surprising that in the future, the eldest son of the emperor will be the prince, and he will be the next emperor.

After a group of women saluted and thanked them, they sat in Fengyi Palace for a while, and then went to Yongfu Palace to ask the Queen Mother for peace.

Gu Nian's grade is high, Xiao Yue is different in the eyes of the new emperor, therefore, she walked in the forefront, and as soon as she stepped into Yongfu Palace, she heard a crisp laughter, just like a yellow warbler out of the valley, dare to laugh like this in Yongfu Palace, thinking that her identity is not ordinary.

Entering the main hall, I saw a bright girl like a flower, who was leaning on the side of the Queen Mother and laughing, seeing them come in, she stood up with a smile, avoided to the side, and waited until the wife saw the Queen Mother, she met the Queen Mother again, "Yun'er has seen the mother." ”

Empress Jiang frowned slightly, and then called her up with a gentle smile, "Cousin, what kind of joke is this talking about, making the queen mother so happy?" ”

Cousin? This will make Gu Nian find that this girl's eyebrows and eyes are still a little similar to the Queen Mother, and suddenly understand that this should be the girl of the Queen Mother's family.

The niece of the Queen Mother, no wonder she can be so bold in Yongfu Palace.

Miss Yun'er blushed and looked embarrassed.

The Queen Mother smiled and relieved her, "This child, peeling melon seeds for the mourning family, I didn't expect that she actually put the melon seed shell on the plate, and the melon seed kernel was thrown upside down." ”

The Queen Mother looked at Yun'er with a doting face.

"Auntie." Yun'er twisted her body and stomped her feet, looking like she was about to die of shame.

A group of people laughed at the scene, Gu Nian also laughed, she couldn't help but look at Queen Jiang, Queen Jiang was also laughing, and her smile was impeccable.

The Queen Mother gave her a seat, her eyes fell on Gu Nian, and she said with a pleasant face, "Why don't you bring Xiao Shizi into the palace?" ”

Gu Nian, who had just sat down, stood up again, and said with a smile, "Thank you Niangniang for your concern, he is a noisy person, and he is afraid that he will enter the palace and bump into the nobles." ”

Saying that, she owed a debt and blessed the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother smiled gently, "It's okay, there are few people in the palace, and the mourning family hasn't heard the noise of children for a long time." ”

In the past, when Emperor Yongping was still there, the Queen Mother was actually indifferent to her, even if Xiao Yue was punished to go to southern Xinjiang in order to protect the crown prince.

At that time, the Queen Mother was not angry with Emperor Yongping and put all her care on Xiao Yue.

Later, after knowing that Emperor Yongping was Xiao Yi, he was relieved, and more importantly, Xiao Yue disobeyed Emperor Yongping for the sake of the crown prince and did not recognize this father, which made the Queen Mother very relieved!

Again, the crown prince has ascended to the throne and become the new emperor.

Xiao Yue still has to bow down to her son, so when she saw Gu Nian, she was extremely pleasant.

It's just that Gu Nian couldn't answer the Queen Mother's words, she glanced at Queen Jiang out of the corner of her eye, and saw that Queen Jiang's hand half-folded in her sleeve was clenched into a fist, and it was already white.

Probably because Gu Nian was too submissive, the Queen Mother lost interest, and this topic turned the page.

The Queen Mother and Empress Jiang, and several other wives said a few words, and then excused themselves to be tired, so they let everyone disperse, and the Yun'er girl who was ashamed and indignant to death, together with the female officials around the Queen Mother, sent everyone to the gate of Yongfu Palace.

Gu Nian was naturally aware of Empress Jiang's uneasiness because of the Queen Mother's words.

Out of Yongfu Palace, Empress Jiang said to Gu Nian, "We haven't talked well for a long time, but this palace took you to Zhang Shuren to ask for peace." Today, let's have lunch with Hongu. ”

Empress Jiang looked at the invitation like this, Gu Nian couldn't refuse, she smiled and said, "Then let's have a meal at Niangniang's place." ”

Empress Jiang said angrily, "Xiao Jiu loves you so much, why don't you get anything, and you don't have a bite to eat here in the palace?" ”

Originally, it was natural for the crown princess to be promoted to the queen, but her son was not canonized as the crown prince, which made Queen Jiang, who was already a mother in the world, unable to relax.

She even thought about whether it was because Rui'er offended Gu Nian at the gate of the palace, so Xiao Yue spoke in front of her husband, which made her son unable to be crowned the crown prince.

However, Rui'er was not canonized as the crown prince, and the other princes did not even have a county king, which made Queen Jiang's heart half relieved.

Time is still in time, as long as she has a good relationship with Princess Jin now, I believe that day will come soon.

This is also why she mentioned the past in front of Gu Nian, but it was just selling her feelings. At the same time, it also pulls in the relationship between the two.

For those little Jiujiu in Queen Jiang's heart, Gu Nian seems to have a mirror in her heart.

The two walked on the palace road, in the summer, the wind blowing through the hall on the road, it was much cooler than sitting in a sedan chair, Queen Jiang refused to get on the car, and insisted on walking with Gu Nian and talking.

She said, listening intently, answering from time to time.

Suddenly, Empress Jiang said, "I heard that last time, the granddaughter of Aunt Changning's grandmother went to the palace and was angry with you. ”

Gu Nian looked at Empress Jiang, smiled lightly, and said suspiciously, "The courtiers don't dare to be angry with their cousin, but after saying a few words, their cousin left by herself." ”

She looked innocent and smiled extremely sincerely.

Empress Jiang smiled, "Really? Aunt Changning's grandmother entered the palace on the second day and said this to the queen mother, and the queen mother handed over the matter to the palace at that time, so the palace had to ask, you also know ......"

Gu Nian's eyes flashed, as if she hadn't heard anything, and interrupted Queen Jiang's words, "Speaking of which, the courtier is the princess, and Miss Mo is nothing, but she came to point fingers at me, she dares to point fingers today, and she will dare to look at me with her chin tomorrow, so I just said a few words, and Miss Mo seems to be bullying her." ”

Empress Jiang's face changed, and she said, "Why should my brother and sister have a conflict with her, Aunt Changning's grandmother is not a person who is easy to fool." ”

"Niangniang, I'm too worried, I'm a dignified prince and princess, do you want people to point fingers? This is related to the majesty of the palace and the royal family, besides, it depends on the owner to beat the dog......"

That master is naturally the new emperor.

Empress Jiang frowned, in her opinion, the guest came, and if she didn't entertain her well, it was a faux pas of the host's family, and she didn't want to find a way to quickly mend the relationship, so why did she kick her nose more and more?

Gu Nian didn't seem to notice Empress Jiang's face, she said, "Niangniang has something to push on the courtiers, and she won't embarrass Niangniang." ”

Originally, Gu Nian still felt a little pity for Queen Jiang after seeing Miss Yun'er in Yongfu Palace, but after this incident, her little pity disappeared.

"I don't know, what kind of woman King Su likes?" Empress Jiang asked.

Gu Nian looked at Empress Jiang seriously, "My father is an elder, and as a junior, courtiers don't care about this." ”

"You say, how is the granddaughter of Aunt Changning's grandmother? This palace knows that there has been unpleasantness between you, but when you enter a house and close the door, you can say anything. ”

Gu Nian smiled a little, and he really didn't like Queen Jiang.

"The elders are in charge of their own affairs." Gu Nian pretended to be stupid.

Fortunately, Queen Jiang didn't say anything more, Gu Nian ate a tasteless meal in Fengyi Palace, and went out of the palace to go home.

After Gu Nian left, Mama Ye, who was beside Queen Jiang, stepped forward and said, "Niangniang, at that time, the Empress Dowager prevaricated the eldest princess of Changning, why do you still mention it to Princess Jin today, it is unpleasant." ”

Mama Ye glanced at Queen Jiang worriedly, she really didn't know what her mother thought.

In the past, in the position of the crown princess, I didn't see her like this, His Royal Highness the King of Jin took a fancy to the princess of Jin, and the mother didn't talk about wooing, but also picked some things to do to add blockage.

Moreover, doesn't this dislike the emperor? Why can't I understand it?

"You don't understand."

Empress Jiang came back to her senses and restrained the look on her face, Princess Jin, she can't afford to offend now, she can't bear this breath, she has to endure it.

However, he can't do without his own power, otherwise, how can Rui'er's interests be protected?

She stood up and called Mama Ye, "You find a reliable person, go back to the mansion, and hand over this letter to the brother in this palace." ”

As soon as Mama Ye saw it, she knew that Empress Jiang's letter had been prepared a long time ago.

In the imperial study, the new emperor quietly listened to Mama Ye's report, did not speak, and said, "Whatever the queen commands, you can do." ”

The emperor didn't open the letter on the table, because he didn't have to open it, he knew what was written inside.

After sending Mama Ye away, the emperor stood up and said to the waiter behind him, "Let's go to Fengyi Palace." ”

He's going to talk to the queen for a good time.

The person standing behind the emperor is Chang Yuan, who has been with him since he was a child, he bowed down, but his heart was distressed for the emperor.

In Fengyi Palace, Queen Jiang was leaning on the couch and closing her eyes to recuperate, when she heard the loud sound of the little eunuch outside, she was overjoyed, and hurriedly got up, her shoes were not put on, and she arrived at the door, just in time to see the emperor come in.

"Your Majesty, before you came, why didn't you send someone to inform you, the concubines are here, it's a mess." She touched her head shyly and straightened her clothes.

The emperor said gently, "When dealing with political affairs, I am dizzy and dizzy, so I want to come over and relax." ”

When Empress Jiang heard this, her eyes turned red, and she said, "The emperor has lost a lot of weight during this time, you have to take good care of yourself." Otherwise, the concubine will make soup every day and send it to the imperial study for you. ”

She wanted to say that the emperor would come to Fengyi Palace to drink soup, but she was afraid that the emperor would think that she was competing for favor.

The emperor leaned on the couch that Empress Jiang was leaning on just now, and relaxed.

After Empress Jiang didn't fake her, she squatted down to help the emperor take off her shoes, and took a thin blanket to cover his legs.

The emperor took Empress Jiang's busy hand, asked her to sit beside him, and said, "It's hard to relax, sit down, busy and busy, you have your own people." ”

Empress Jiang pursed her lips, "The concubines are used to it." ”

"We are husband and wife, and we can talk openly about anything." The emperor slowed down his tone, "Do you think that I am the emperor now, so I can relax?" ”

Empress Jiang was taken aback, although the emperor's tone was gentle, but the words were harsh, she quickly knelt down and pleaded guilty, in the royal family, although they were husband and wife, but they were also more strict in rank.

"Get up." The emperor rubbed his eyebrows, "Let's just say that back then, those side concubines in the East Palace or something, which one was not chosen by you without concealment?"

You said that you only gave birth to a son, and you can't have another son, okay, you want to have a rich heir, and I will fulfill you, which woman in the harem is not pregnant, and I will never enter their body again?

Yes and no? ”

Empress Jiang nodded, the prince didn't have the intention of taking a concubine at first, but later, she did it.

"I know that if the royal family doesn't have a concubine on the scene, someone should say that you are jealous and can't tolerate people in your eyes.

Okay, I accepted it. One after another.

I'm tired, I obviously talked to you about my intentions, just the two of us, live a good life.

Those concubines, and heirs, you take good care of them, we don't have no sons, as long as he is well, can this world not be his?

If you feel in your heart that because of the heir, you feel unsteady, and you feel that I don't know when I will be drafted again, I will let Zhang Chunzi show you, it can be cured, let's continue to give birth, if it can't be cured, teach Rui'er well, and lead him to the right path, it will be good.

I, since the first day of the wedding, I have expressed that I am not the kind of person who will leave you aside when she sees a new one tomorrow. Even if, as the emperor, I still have the final say in the inner courtyard of my harem.

I want it, I want it, I don't want it, no one can force it. ”

Empress Jiang listened to the emperor's words and burst into tears, what woman doesn't want to be a couple with her husband for the rest of her life?

In the past, as the crown princess, she didn't have a good day, she gave birth to a child, she was afraid, she didn't have a child, she was still afraid.

She wants to be a virtuous helper, but the royal daughter-in-law, where is it so good?

The emperor got up, bent down to wipe away the tears on Empress Jiang's face, and said, "Today, Princess Jin came in, and you have eaten together?" ”

Empress Jiang smiled, "Yes, the concubine thinks, Xiao Jiu and you are good brothers, and the concubine should be in the same place as Princess Jin, so that she can help the emperor show grace." ”

The emperor nodded and said quietly, "That's all?" ”

Empress Jiang pursed her lips and said, "Last time, Aunt Changning's grandmother entered the palace and complained to the queen mother, saying that the princess of Jin was disrespectful, and the queen mother was impatient to deal with this, so the concubine took it, and asked the princess of Jin today, and also said two words......"

The emperor's heart cooled down little by little, and he was suddenly a little disheartened, the emperor felt that maybe he was really thinking too much, and he was just looking forward to her being able to objectively say what happened today.

"That Miss Mo is just messing around, where do people don't like it and have to put it on, not to mention the woman's face, even King Su's place, it is also extremely embarrassing.

King Su clearly said that he didn't want to marry again. ”

"Your Majesty, if you don't, you should be a matchmaker for King Su, perhaps, King Su is embarrassed to break it because he made an oath at the beginning, and he is afraid that he will be laughed at by the world.

Could it be that King Su is really lonely all his life? The emperor's decree is different. ”

Empress Jiang saw that there was no displeasure on the emperor's face, and then said.

The emperor closed his eyes.

He wants to be good to her, he wants to be good with his heart and lungs, even if he guards her alone, he can do it.

He just wants to be sincere, but now, even if she is sincere to her husband, does she really have sincerity?

What he said just now was all in vain.

The emperor was silent for a long time and said, "I still have something to do, so I'll leave first." ”

Empress Jiang was stunned for a moment, "Didn't you say you had a headache?" The concubine has a new palace maid here, a medical woman from the former Tai Hospital, who specializes in massage. The concubine thinks it's good, why don't you let her try it? ”

The emperor looked at Empress Jiang with a smile, tilted it again, and said lazily, "Then let her try it." ”
