Chapter 203: Guifei
Su Guifei greeted her with a light smile: "I miss the emperor." ”
Emperor Qingchun laughed and walked to the beauty couch with Su Guifei on her shoulder.
When the cat saw Emperor Qingchun coming, he glanced at him lazily and continued to rest on the beauty couch.
Emperor Qingchun couldn't help but smile and said, "Xuetuan is really not afraid of me at all. ”
Concubine Su curled her lips: "Does the emperor want Xuetuan to be afraid of you?" ”
Emperor Qingchun sat down and smoothed the white cat's hair: "I like such a spiritual little thing as Xuetuan, Xuetuan can't be afraid of me." ”
The white cat Xu was impatient listening to the gossip of the two, and finally got up lazily, jumped off the beauty couch and walked away without hurrying.
"Is the emperor busy today?"
"Not busy. Even if I am busy, it will not affect me to come to see my concubine. In front of Concubine Su, Emperor Qingchun always smiled gently, and he couldn't see the majesty of the emperor at all.
This made the people of Yaohua Palace feel the emperor's favor for Niangniang all the time, and it was also the confidence of Su Guifei to smile easily.
She didn't have to be as careful as those concubines to please the emperor, and she would sit in front of the dressing mirror and carefully check the corners of her eyes for frightening lines.
As long as she is still the most beautiful, the emperor's eyes will fall on her.
And the years have indeed treated such a stunning beauty well, and until now, there is no trace left by time on Su Guifei's face.
Emperor Qingchun looked at Concubine Su's smooth and fair face, and his gaze became softer and softer.
After chatting a few words, Su Guifei said the purpose of inviting Emperor Qingchun over: "Your Majesty, Lang'er is nineteen years old this year, is it time to choose a princess for him?" ”
King Wu's single name is a Lang character, and he is still one year away from the crown.
Concubine Su has always been very concerned about King Wu's family affairs, and you must know that the Yue family is often a big help. As soon as the news of the crown princess's joy came out, she wanted to settle her son's family affairs as soon as possible.
The prince's sick son has not moved for so long, but when some old ministers began to secretly turn to support their son, the good news came out, which was simply infuriating.
Emperor Qingchun nodded slightly when he heard this: "It's time to choose a concubine for Lang'er, I don't know if my concubine has a favorite noblewoman?" ”
Concubine Su glanced at Emperor Qingchun: "Look at what the emperor said, for such a big event as the prince's choice of concubines, how can concubines make their own decisions." ”
This is actually a bit excessive.
The prince's choice of concubines is also divided into people, generally speaking, only the selection of the crown princess depends entirely on the emperor's intentions, and others can't talk too much, as for the selection of concubines for ordinary princes, it is negotiable.
As the mother of Wu, Su Guifei can certainly propose.
"Lang'er's family affairs should be cautious, and it is good to love the concubine and be satisfied with her future daughter-in-law."
Regarding King Wu's family affairs, Emperor Qingchun was actually hesitant.
Emperor Qingchun is indeed partial to King Wu, on the one hand, he favors Concubine Su, Prince Wu is expensive by his mother, and on the other hand, the prince is weak and not long-lived.
But even if he prefers King Wu, it is not easy to change the crown prince.
Chengguo Gong, who fought the world with Taizu, the queen who married her hair at a young age, firmly supported the orthodox minister.
The most important thing is that Emperor Qingchun is only in his early forties now, and he is in the prime of life, whether the crown prince completely overwhelms King Wu, or King Wu completely overthrows the crown prince, it is undesirable for Emperor Qingchun, who only has two sons.
He hoped that the balance would be maintained for a long time, preferably until he was old and had to make a decision.
King Wu's family affairs are undoubtedly a very weighty weight, and a bad plan may upset the balance.
Concubine Su has been with you for many years, and she can't see Emperor Qingchun's hesitation.
She sneered in her heart, and her expression was still lazy and moving: "It's just getting hot, and it's boring to stay in the palace all the time." The concubine thought that it would be better to hold a banquet in the Humble Summer Garden, invite the ladies and girls of various provinces to play, and see if there are any suitable noblewomen. What does the emperor think? ”
Emperor Qingchun groaned slightly and nodded: "It's okay, Concubine Ai looks at it." ”
Su Guifei fiddled with her long nails.
The jade shoots and the pill always inadvertently attract the attention of the emperor.
She chuckled and said: "This kind of thing should naturally be the queen in charge of the overall situation, how can the concubine be so messy." The concubine is only worried that the queen will be troublesome, and if she really hands this matter over to the concubine, she will have a headache. ”
When Emperor Qingchun heard this, he said: "I will go back and talk to the queen, and you will discuss it." ”
"Then thank you, Emperor."
After leaving Yaohua Palace, Emperor Qingchun went to Kunning Palace.
Hearing that the emperor had arrived, Queen Lu was quite surprised.
The emperor hadn't come to her palace at this time for a long time, so long that she couldn't remember when the last time it was.
After a moment of silence, Queen Lu got up to greet her.
Emperor Qingchun had already walked in, looked at Empress Lu who was saluting him, and subconsciously frowned.
Compared with Su Guifei's delicate flowers, the pale and silent woman in front of him made him just want to escape.
"The queen hasn't been busy lately, has she?" Emperor Qingchun walked in and sat down by himself.
"It's not busy."
"That's good, you can hold a banquet in the Humble Summer Garden and invite those ladies and girls to have fun."
Empress Lu looked at Emperor Qingchun and didn't understand which one she was singing.
Emperor Qingchun didn't want to see Empress Lu say something and didn't ask, so he resisted the urge to leave and explained: "King Wu has reached the age of choosing a concubine, just to see if there is a suitable girl." ”
"Concubine Zhang Luo is suitable." Empress Lu said lightly.
"You are the queen, and King Wu also wants to call you the queen mother, so naturally you are the most suitable to operate, and the assistant concubine is it."
Queen Lu lowered her eyes, and her eyes were cold.
She understood what the emperor meant.
asked her to set up a banquet for King Wu to choose a concubine, Su Guifei watched from the side, and it was Su Guifei who chose in the end.
"The concubine has no spirit when she enters the summer, and it will not be good if it is such an important matter as choosing a concubine for King Wu because of the concubine's leakage." Empress Lu looked at Emperor Qingchun and said in a calm tone, "Please forgive the emperor, I'm afraid the concubine won't be able to help the concubine." ”
Emperor Qingchun's face was difficult to look at.
The queen refused him without hesitation.
No, this has happened many times.
There are so many concubines in the harem, including Su Guifei, who is not gentle and considerate to him.
Only the queen, relying on his young knot, never looked at him as an emperor.
The emotions that had been piling up were easily ignited by the woman in front of her, and Emperor Qingchun asked in a deep voice: "The queen doesn't think about it?" ”
Empress Lu straightened her back and said lightly: "Don't think about it." ”
Emperor Qingchun walked away with a blue face.
Empress Lu stared at the door, where no one had been seen for a long time, and did not look away for a long time.
The henchman couldn't help but say, "Niangniang, why are you bother-"
A pair of apricot eyes swept over, with coldness and fierceness, and the henchman had to swallow the words behind.
When the news reached Yaohua Palace, Concubine Su Guifei smiled happily at the beautiful woman in the dressing mirror.
The queen really never let her down.
