Chapter 60: The Righteous Mother
Qianqiu was stunned, and her fingers tightened slightly: "If you can't sit steadily......"
"Huh?" Han Ziji raised his eyes, his eyes deep and waiting for her answer.
"Then I'll go with you to open a mountain and block the road and rob it." Chiaki is very serious, very serious.
Han Ziji smiled, stretched out his hand and knocked her forehead: "I am a dignified emperor, and I will be reduced to being a bandit?" ”
"What's wrong with the bandits?" Qianqiu was indignant: "The bandit is also capable of doing a great job!" ”
"Okay, ambitious little bandit." Han Ziji touched her head dotingly, then held her in his arms and quickly fell asleep.
The warmth on Qianqiu's face had not yet dissipated, and he looked up at Han Ziji's sleeping face, thinking with some emotion that he really regarded her as his own. Holding her so defenselessly, and sleeping so soundly, if she does anything crooked, it will be a crime that deserves death.
But......
She received a letter from her father, asking her about the deployment of the palace and the arrangement of the guards.
She originally entered the palace with the intention of exploring the bottom, and now she naturally wants to help her father do things, but seeing that Han Ziji trusts her so much, she has some heavenly and human wars in her heart, but she can't find a way to do both.
Sleep, sleep, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain.
Chiaki closed her eyes, but her dream was still unstable, she dreamed of the fire in her childhood, the screams of her mother and sister seemed to penetrate the sky above the grassland, she was held in her father's arms, sitting on the horse and running wildly.
"Mother......
Han Ziji opened his eyes, looked at the person in his arms, frowned slightly, and reached out to smooth her brows.
The next day, Chiaki inspected the harem with dark circles under her eyes.
The quality of sleep is not very good, resulting in the whole person being a little haggard. Chiaki sat on her shoulder, shaken dizzy.
"Niangniang, we've been shopping around the harem for a week, and the guards everywhere are reliable, so there's no need to send additional people, right?" Lily did as she was instructed and took a small notebook to record.
Qianqiu said "um", looked out along the palace wall of Chongyang Gate, raised his eyebrows and said, "Is the front hall the front court?" ”
Lily nodded: "Our harem is a big place, and the front is just the Taiji Hall where the emperor does things, and the court hall when he was in the last dynasty." ”
Qianqiu bowed his head, took the book in Lily's hand, and probably knew the topographical map of the harem. Her Scene Palace is the most heavily guarded place, but there are not too many people, except for Chu Yue, there are only five guards. There were only four guards on the queen's side, as well as many palace people.
In such a situation, if Daddy wants to assassinate, it will inevitably ...... Choose her Sight Palace.
Thinking of the last time Uncle Si happened, Qianqiu lowered her eyes, and the guilt in her heart still did not dissipate. Those lives are her sins, and I am afraid that she will have to bear them for a lifetime. And this time, she'd better just... No one should help.
"Why is Concubine Jing so interested in wandering around?" Situ Xiuxiu held the hands of the palace people, and happened to come out of the Taiji Hall and met her.
Qianqiu hurriedly lowered his shoulders and went over to salute with a smile: "The queen is well." ”
Situ Xiuxiu snorted, stared at her and said: "Calm down, Concubine Jing is the most favored concubine in the palace, the emperor doesn't even look at the new people who enter the palace, and it is also your ability to refuse to come out of the palace if you deviate from your scene." ”
Qianqiu scratched her head, this person was talking all over the place, she didn't understand whether she was praising her or hurting her.
"But Concubine Jing had better remember that the palace has never been a place where anyone can dominate, and you will cause trouble under the favor, you better be careful, and don't always compete with newcomers for favor." The golden steps on the queen's head swayed, and the expression on her face was also unfathomable.
Qianqiu was helpless, so she could only say "oh", and then bypassed her and entered the Taiji Hall to find Han Shishi.
"I haven't finished talking yet, why do you have to leave?" Situ Xiuxiu frowned, and Shui Lan next to her stepped forward and gently stopped her.
Qianqiu raised her eyes and glanced at Shui Lan, and the girl was motionless with her eyes down. She could only turn around, and her mood was already a little bad: "What else does Niangniang have to order?" ”
Situ Xiuxiu laughed angrily: "It's really a girl in the mountains and wilderness, half of it doesn't understand the rules, let someone like you come to assist in the harem, and the emperor will definitely be ......."
The words were too fast, almost disrespectful, the queen hurriedly stopped, coughed lightly and said: "Tonight, you have to turn over the brands of those newcomers, you don't want to make any more troubles." ”
Qianqiu felt that this Situ Xiuxiu's attitude was really annoying, she raised her face and spoke, she saw it in her nostrils, she really looked like a peacock high above, arrogant and willful.
As the second leader of Heifeng Village, Qianqiu has always dared to love and hate, and if she provokes someone she hates, she naturally won't give a good face, so she pushed away Shui Lan and walked directly into the Taiji Palace.
"Look at it, what kind of system it has become like this, it is still a dignified concubine!" The queen was so angry that she threw off her sleeves and left, Shui Lan looked at Qianqiu's back, then looked at her master, and followed silently.
Han Ziji was reading in the hall, and he heard Situ Xiuxiu's voice from afar, and then watched Qianqiu come in with a black face, and smiled without surprise: "Why did you quarrel with her again." ”
Qianqiu said angrily: "Which ear did you hear me arguing?" It's clear that your eldest wife is deceiving people too much, and she won't stop talking about me, it's really annoying, don't sleep with me tonight, lest she come to teach me a lesson tomorrow. ”
Han Ziji listened to it funny: "What do you call my eldest wife, that's the queen, besides, what she said is not unreasonable, now that there are more people in the palace, you should also pay attention to it, and you can't be as casual as before." ”
Qianqiu frowned: "You talk to her in the same tone." ”
Han Ziji shook his head: "The people in the palace are all in tune with me." ”
Dare to love them all in a gang and bully her as an outsider? Qianqiu was a little angry and kicked Han Ziji's chair: "Will you help her or help me?" ”
Putting down the book, Han Ziji said with a smile: "I can't help you blatantly in the harem, otherwise it will hurt you." ”
The people in the palace are troublesome, talking around a dozen bends, walking with a steady pace, and flattering when doing things, are they tired or not? Qianqiu sat irritably and sulked, Han Ziji saw this, went out and ordered Junzi to bring two plates of dim sum, the second master was angry, but it was not easy to provoke, he was really angry, maybe his fists were beckoning to him.
When the snack came, Qianqiu was not so angry, and said while stuffing it into his mouth: "Recently, General Xie went to Shandong, right?" Then you go to sleep with his daughter tonight, and tomorrow you will reward him with something, so that he can rest assured. ”
Han Ziji choked and coughed, took the book and half-covered his face and said, "Can you not speak so vulgarly?" What does it mean to sleep his daughter? ”
"Okay, Lin Xing, Lin Xing, right?" Qianqiu rolled her eyes: "Doesn't it mean the same?" The thatched house has to be called the toilet, the sleeping woman has to be called Linxing, the eldest wife has to be called the queen, and the little wife has to be called the concubine, there are many things! ”
Han Ziji felt that the second master was in a very bad mood today, quite bad, so he put down the book and walked to her to sit down: "You calm down, whoever provokes you will be like a cat with its tail stepped on, and it will be too easy to be taken advantage of." ”
"What are you using me for?" Qianqiu snorted angrily and said: "I don't want money, if I want to die, I will take it!" ”
She just isn't happy, she has to be talked about when she sleeps with Han Shishi, is there a way to live this day?
Han Ziji chuckled, gently pinched Qianqiu's chin, snatched a little pastry from her lips, and said, "Your life is mine, and others can't take it." ”
The atmosphere was a little ambiguous in an instant, and Qianqiu snorted twice, and her face turned red again: "Don't snatch my pastries." ”
"Okay, give you as much as you want to eat, no one will rob you." Han Ziji smiled: "It's just that tonight I'm going to really go to thank Cairen, you sleep alone, don't hit the quilt again." ”
Qianqiu felt a little uncomfortable, so she didn't start to answer, and she couldn't eat the pastries in her hand.
It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, and as an emperor's man, it is even more normal for him to have three wives and four concubines, and she has long been psychologically prepared.
But for the next few days, Han Ziji slept in the Wutong Palace and Chengguang Palace, and only returned to the Taiji Hall in the second half of the night, which made her a little unhappy.
However, Shi said that as Concubine Jing, she is older than them, and she is more generous when she is the boss, but there is a queen above her, she is at most a second child, can she be generous?
But in order not to embarrass the stone, she still hid in the Scene Palace honestly and didn't go out.
Then one night, Shui Lan in the queen's palace knelt in front of her again: "Niangniang, what did you think about the matter that the slave mentioned last time?" ”
Qianqiu tried hard to remember what the palace maid said, and finally remembered. On the night when she and Han Ziji took the wrong medicine, this girl came to see her in advance.
The queen's medicine, this Shui Lan is her wedding maid again, the emperor came to the Scene Palace smoothly, and Shui Lan is naturally greasy.
She wants to ally with herself? Chiaki touched her chin and asked, "What conditions do you have?" ”
Shui Lan raised her head and said seriously: "The slave maid can't stand the queen's mother, and she continues to follow her, and she can only be beaten and scolded every day, so the slave and maid want to help the mother, and also ask the mother to save the slave from fire and water when she gains power." ”
She had heard Lily say that the queen had never been very good to Shui Lan, and it was reasonable for her to be rebellious, but ......
"What do I want you to do for me?" Qianqiu said strangely: "My life is very good now, if you really can't stand the queen's mother, then the palace will find a way for you." ”
Shui Lan was stunned for a moment, thinking that Qianqiu was trying to refuse and welcome, so she shed tears more realistically: "The slave maid has followed the queen mother since she was a child, and knows many secrets about her, and she beats and scolds the slave and the maid at every turn, and the slave maid... Slaves are really..."
This is also too ruthless, Qianqiu's sense of justice suddenly exploded, and he slapped the table and said, "It's okay, you come with me!" ”
