Chapter 149: A group of wives and concubines is a burden

Hetai didn't agree with the Queen Mother's words in his heart, and he was also worried about Yu Die'er beside him, afraid that she would have some ideas because of this. Secretly glanced at it, and found that Yu Die'er looked as usual, and didn't seem to mind the slightest, looking calm and unconcerned.

A wave of boredom arose inexplicably, and his face turned completely cold, and he refused again, "Imperial grandmother, my grandson really thinks this time is inappropriate, let's talk about it later." He turned to Xiling again, "If you want to have a lively time, you can set up a table in Haoyue Zhai." ”

By saying this, he was undoubtedly pointing out that Xiling was the initiator of this matter. Xi was also a little panicked when she heard it, she didn't think about what was going to happen at this time, and she didn't have the courage.

She came to find the Queen Mother, but the purpose was just to get close to the Queen Mother and indirectly curry favor with Hetai. It's just that I didn't expect the Queen Mother to be a person who misses her old love, and she is already thinking about helping herself. The matter of going to the banquet was mentioned by the Queen Mother first, and since it is a good thing, it is not wrong for Xiling to want to climb the pole. But now seeing that Hetai is so resolutely opposed, Xiling doesn't want to annoy him by painting a tiger and not becoming an anti-dog. So she also didn't argue, since he decided it, it would be wrong to explain more, Xiling only didn't understand the sound outside the strings, and happily responded.

"Yes, then it's better to just tomorrow night, the two younger sisters are also very worried about the prince, and this meal happens to be a reunion banquet to catch the wind. ”

The Queen Mother was dissatisfied with Hetai's disobedient attitude, but seeing that Xiling was so sensible, she didn't want to say anything more, and said with relief, "Look, Xiling is really reasonable." ”

Xiling smiled softly, "The queen mother is embarrassed to praise the slaves and maids, the slaves and maids are loved by the queen mother, and they are very grateful, but the prince is very appropriate to arrange it this way, after all, there are still two sisters here, if the slave and maid are alone, presumably the sisters will be a little desolate in their hearts." ”

These words sounded like they were given to the Queen Mother and Hetai to complete the matter. There is no displeasure. It's just that Yu Die'er felt the gaze projected by Xiling intentionally or unintentionally, and it seemed to have a deep meaning. Yu Die'er felt inexplicable, so she just didn't see it and didn't accept it.

And the Queen Mother appreciates her bearing even more, she is not jealous or favored, and she can still think of the other two, which is really rare.

Halfway through the meal, Xiling proposed to retire, "The queen mother, the prince, the slave maid is really nervous for the first time, I am afraid that there is something inappropriate, I want to go back to my sisters to consult first, and then determine the ingredients with the dining room." So I wanted to retire first. ”

Of course, Hetai agreed without objection. The Queen Mother didn't keep it, and let her go with a few words.

The food supervisor delivers the ingredients every morning, and Xiling wants to have a number of dishes in his heart in advance, and he will ask for the corresponding ingredients with the food supervisor tomorrow morning.

In fact, even if the menu is sent temporarily, as long as Hetai speaks, the food supervisor must be happy to send it again immediately. It's just that Hetai doesn't want to care, just let her go. And the Queen Mother helped Xi Ling, but she just felt that she sent her over to be a palace maid, and her current identity is just a lady and a concubine, in the end, she is not much noble, and she is a little unhappy.

Maybe it's because people are old, maybe it's because of eating fasting and chanting Buddha for so many years, the queen mother's compassion is gradually heavy, so she will take care of this idle matter, if it is left in previous years, maybe she will not see these as a matter at all, a palace maid, give you to the prince as a wife, it is already a blessing to ascend to heaven, what else is there to worry about. I don't know what to think about if I dare to come.

So although she said good things for Xiling, the Queen Mother was not angry because Hetai rejected her. After all, it's still the grandson who is closer.

However, because of Xiling's reasonableness, after she left, the Queen Mother still said some serious words to Hetai, "Since you were fourteen years old, Xiling has been with you, although she is just a lady, but no matter what, she is also the first, and people are also virtuous, and there are few virtuous women, and your backyard will be much cleaner without right and wrong." ”

"She is also doing her best when she serves the mourning family, if it weren't for you, the mourning family would be reluctant to let her out. Even if you don't want to give her a long identity, treat her with relative care on a daily basis, which can be regarded as looking at the face of the mourning family. ”

Hetai was already unhappy that Xiling came to find the Queen Mother, but now that the person is gone, the Queen Mother is still speaking for her, so she is even more displeased, and she doesn't want to contradict the Queen Mother again, so she only puts the fire on Xiling, and can't help but accuse: "If she is dissatisfied with me, she can come to me directly, why bother the emperor's grandmother, is there a rule for this?"

"Looking for you, can you listen to it? Besides, can she dare?" the Queen Mother asked rhetorically. In fact, she also thinks that Xiling has always been a rule-abiding person, since she went to Haoyue Zhai, she has hardly been to Rongxiang Palace, presumably to avoid suspicion, and she should not have the intention to do it today, maybe she just watched Hetai come back, come and see. Besides, since you have spoken for her, whether it is right or wrong, you must always say it for the better.

Hetai was noncommittal, and what the Queen Mother said was right, a concubine dared to question the prince? Dare to reason with the prince? Why don't you treat me well, why don't you come to my room, why don't you pamper me? Don't say that she is a concubine, even if it is a princess, she doesn't dare to say this.

"But her method is not advisable, what if everyone follows her example and pleases their hearts?" Tsurutai's tone was indifferent, but anyone could hear his impatience.

Originally, these women were not begged by him, but the Queen Mother had to give him a few women, and he thought they were more regular. It's really annoying that it's starting to rise now.

"Tai'er misunderstood Xiling, she just came to see the mourning family today, and said that the mourning family didn't believe that she had any intentions. ”

"In short, I hope this is the first and last time, otherwise the grandchildren will not be able to cope with it in the long run, and then I can only ask the imperial grandmother to take them back." ”

Take a look? If you don't have any other thoughts, the ghost will believe it.

Since the Queen Mother gave three concubines to Haoyue Zhai, at first it may have been out of curiosity, Hetai and they have also been intimate for a while, and they are cold to them on weekdays, which is not only due to temperament, but also because they don't want to spoil anyone more, which will lead to competition for favor in the backyard. Later, after the curiosity passed, I felt bored, and every time it was more like an obligation and a response, and I couldn't think about them.

If there is no love, where does the mind come from? Later, he was too lazy to deal with it, and he could hide and hide, and over time, he became accustomed to this state. In the past few years of going to the battlefield, I have become even more innocent, and now I don't even have the idea of seeing them. didn't expect them to want to compete for favor, and they also used the Queen Mother as a backer, which was even more unpleasant.

So Hetai's words were ruthless, just to cut off Xiling's thoughts, and also asked the Queen Mother to stop caring about this matter.

But the Queen Mother didn't think so, and now she only felt that Hetai was too disobedient and disobedient, and she couldn't help but be a little annoyed.

"Why, now that your wings are stiff, you dare to speak to the mourning family like this?"

"Imperial grandmother, I don't mean that, I'm not complaining about you, it's just that my grandson is busy with business now, and I don't have time to take care of these things, if they try their best, I'm afraid it's just a burden for me, not only will my grandson not be able to cope with it, but it will also disturb the purity of the queen mother. ”

Hetai really feels that what he yearns for is the kind of woman he loves for a lifetime, as long as he loves it, one is enough! It was a very heavy burden, a burden on the mind, and even more so on the body. If you have to do something like that to a woman you don't like, it's really depressing.

And it's fighting, and everyone is tired. A life is so long, he doesn't want to live like that. He can't choose to be born, but in the future, he hopes to live according to his own heart, although he knows that it will require countless struggles, and it may not be possible.

"Burden, cope?" The Queen Mother didn't know what to say for a while.

Which man doesn't like a beautiful wife and concubine, not to mention the national beauty and fragrance of these people he chose, they are also delicate and lovely beauties. How did it become a burden? Could it be that there is something wrong with Hetai?

The queen was embarrassed, hesitated for a while, and whispered, "If there is anything, the imperial doctor will take a look, and don't shy away from the doctor." ”

The words were vague, but Hetai understood it, a little embarrassed, knowing that the queen mother was wrong, and hurriedly explained in a low voice, "My grandson is not sick, but I don't like them." I really don't have the heart to deal with it. ”

Yu Die'er was close, so she naturally heard the conversation between the two, and glanced at Hetai with a strange face. He was even more embarrassed, and what was even more annoying was that Yu Die'er's face seemed to be trying to hold back a smile.

Hearing Hetai say this, the Queen Mother was relieved. She loves this grandson very much, even if she doesn't contradict herself, she won't really blame her. Then he said, "Forget it, don't mention her." "It's not worth it to affect the feelings of grandchildren for the sake of a concubine.

"When you moved to the residence of the emperor's heir, the first time you left the mourning family, although they were all in this palace, but after all, you can't meet from time to time through the door of the harem, and you are not at the age of marrying a concubine, so the mourning family wants to find a few sensible and virtuous women to point out to you to make a room, so that you can do your best to take care of your life. Now that you're older, the mourning family can't control your thoughts, and since you say you don't like it, the mourning family can't do anything. ”

The Queen Mother's words, even Yu Die'er was a little moved, and the Queen Mother had nothing to say about Hetai's really good intentions. No less than a mother to her child.

"Imperial Grandmother. Hetai also felt a burst of self-blame. Fang Cai himself spoke to the Queen Mother like that, which must have hurt her heart to some extent.

The Queen Mother saw Hetai's guilt, and it seemed that she still cared about her grandmother. Then I didn't have any anger.

"It's nothing, the words are in a hurry, the mourning family can understand, how can the mourning family not understand that Tai'er is a filial child. Regarding your marriage, it used to be delayed because the mourning family also had concerns, finding out the height, afraid that people would bully you, and the low-born person was not worthy of you, and now you also have a future. It's outstanding. Now no matter which one you fancy it, you will not be controlled by others, and the mourning family is also relieved. After a few days, the mourning family will say to the emperor, choose a good one with you. "The grandson who was raised single-handedly is now top-notch among the princes, and the Queen Mother is really pleased and honored.

said that he didn't mention Xiling, but now the conversation has obviously turned to Hetai's marriage, no way, who called Hetai no mother, it was the queen mother who brought it up, and it hurt as much as her own son. The Queen Mother felt that she didn't think about him, didn't think about him, who else worried about him?
