Extraordinarily angry
Emperor Xuanping is rarely in such a good mood and in good interest.
Empress Liang stood aside with a smile and watched, occasionally laughing in a low voice with Empress Dowager Pei: "It's rare for a concubine to see the emperor so happy. In the future, the queen mother summoned Cousin Rong and Ah Yuan Aman into the palace, and the palace was also lively. ”
Empress Dowager Pei glanced at Queen Liang with a smile: "I didn't expect the queen to like children so much." Waiting for the filial piety period, the queen and the emperor will have a round house, and give birth to a grandson or granddaughter as soon as possible, so that the mourning family can also enjoy the joy of teasing the grandson. ”
Queen Liang was thin-skinned, and suddenly blushed with a pretty face.
On this evening, Empress Liang accompanied Emperor Xuanping to dinner, and suggested with a smile: "The concubine looks at it, the queen mother likes children very much." Today, Aman entered the palace, and the queen mother was very happy. ”
"However, Ah Yuan Aman is the son of a foreign minister, and it is inconvenient to enter the palace from time to time. It is better to let the second imperial sister-in-law often bring Brother Heng into the palace to accompany the queen mother. ”
When Empress Liang said this, it was purely a piece of filial piety.
In the eyes of Empress Liang, Empress Dowager Pei lived in a widowed deep palace and missed the first emperor, but she was also quite lonely and lonely. Raising a grandson by your side can also relieve loneliness.
The most suitable is Brother Heng. The second prince made a thousand mistakes, and in the end he was the son of the Empress Dowager Pei. Brother Heng is the grandson of Empress Dowager Pei.
For some reason, Emperor Xuanping's smile faded.
He didn't nod his head, he didn't say no.
After entering the palace, Emperor Xuanping has always treated her very well. It's the first time I've shown such a cold expression.
Empress Liang felt a sigh in her heart, knowing that she had said something wrong, and her beautiful face showed a little panic and uneasiness: "Did the concubine say something wrong?" Please calm the emperor's anger. ”
Emperor Xuanping looked at Empress Liang with a confused face, his heart softened, and he said in a low voice: "Ruyue, I know that you have good intentions. It's just that the second emperor brother made a big mistake back then. The queen mother hated him. Brother Heng is a good child, but when she sees Brother Heng, the queen mother can't help but think of the second emperor brother. ”
"Therefore, you should be careful in front of the queen mother."
Empress Liang responded in a low voice: "Yes, the concubine knows." I'm sorry, but concubines shouldn't be messy with ideas. ”
Empress Liang quickly got up and retired, and Emperor Xuanping did not hold on as in the past, nodding slightly.
After Empress Liang retreated, all the expressions of Emperor Xuanping were hidden, and he was silent for a long time without speaking.
It's that he's too wishful thinking. thought that Queen Liang would also accept Cheng Jinrong without any guilt, and loved her as a sister.
For Empress Liang, Cheng Jinrong is a very favored courtier. Aman, Aman, is the son of a "foreign minister". Perhaps, Empress Liang is still strange in her heart, he and Empress Dowager Pei are too kind to Cheng Jinrong......
Tonight, this basin of cold water was poured down, and he suddenly calmed down and sobered up a lot.
At this moment, he finally understood why Cheng Jinrong was reluctant to enter the palace on an errand.
There is Queen Liang in the harem, which is different from before. Cheng Jinrong occasionally enters the palace, if he is by the side of Empress Dowager Pei every day, can Empress Liang not be suspicious?
……
Early the next morning, Empress Liang went to Renhe Palace to say goodbye.
Empress Dowager Pei saw at a glance that something was wrong.
Queen Liang is young and beautiful, and she doesn't need rouge to decorate, and she is also a good color. Today, I rarely smeared fat powder, and there was a faint hint of gloom in my respectful expression.
Empress Dowager Pei asked gently: "The queen's complexion today seems to be worse than in the past, could it be that she is sick?" ”
Empress Liang is still young, and she doesn't have many city mansions, so her smile is a little reluctant: "My daughter-in-law is in good health, and I am worried about my mother." ”
Empress Dowager Pei's heart moved slightly, and her voice became more and more gentle: "Did you have a quarrel with the emperor?" The emperor is young and vigorous, and it is inevitable that there will be times when he is not considerate enough. The queen should be more considerate. ”
Empress Liang didn't know whether she was moved or ashamed, her eyes were slightly red, and her voice was a little choked: "It was the daughter-in-law who spoke carelessly, which made the emperor unhappy." No wonder the emperor, it's all the blame for the daughter-in-law. ”
Empress Dowager Pei didn't make much effort, and quickly asked the reason for the incident.
Empress Liang didn't look up, and she didn't see the slight coldness in Empress Dowager Pei's eyes: "...... The daughter-in-law was also distressed that the queen mother was lonely, and when she saw that the queen mother liked children, she made a proposal to the emperor and let Brother Heng enter the palace to accompany the queen mother, which could also make the Renhe Palace more lively. Unexpectedly, when the emperor heard these words, his face sank. ”
As she spoke, Empress Liang wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and cautiously raised her eyes to look at Empress Dowager Pei: "Daughter-in-law, please forgive the queen mother for her recklessness." ”
In an instant, the coldness in Empress Dowager Pei's eyes faded, revealing a kind smile: "I see." You are filial, how can the mourning family blame you. ”
"Brother Heng is indeed a good boy. He is enlightened to study this year, and the inconvenience of mourning his family makes him enter the palace every day. Every five days in the future, let the Jiang family take Brother Heng into the palace to greet the mourning family. ”
Empress Liang was both surprised and delighted, and said with a smile: "It's good that the queen mother doesn't think her daughter-in-law has any ideas." ”
Empress Dowager Pei said with a smile: "Why is it a mess of ideas." In the eyes of the mourners, this idea is very good. After a pause, he said: "On the emperor's side, the mourning family will talk about him when they are free." Husband and wife talking in one place, it doesn't matter if it's lighter or heavier. If he slaps his face at you, it's not his. ”
Queen Liang was moved, and hurriedly got up to thank her: "The queen mother feels so sorry for her daughter-in-law, and her daughter-in-law is ashamed." ”
Empress Dowager Pei comforted Queen Liang with kind words, and the young Queen Liang was moved to tears.
In private, Empress Dowager Pei called Emperor Xuanping and sighed in a low voice: "Little Liu, the Liang family doesn't know anything. Why should you be angry with her over such a trivial matter. ”
Emperor Xuanping pursed the corners of his mouth and said in a low voice: "Queen Mother, Erchen is not angry with her, Erchen is angry with himself for taking it for granted." Cousin Rong did not go to the palace on an errand, but went to the official office of the Tai Hospital, obviously thinking of this earlier. But Erchen was wishful thinking, thinking that the Liang family would like Cousin Rong very much, and they would also like Ah Yuan and Aman......"
"It's not that I don't like it." Empress Dowager Pei sighed lightly again: "However, she is the queen and her status is precious." Jinrong is a courtier, and she is also courteous to Jinrong. ”
"Actually, the queen is right. Brother Heng is a good boy, and in the future, the mourning family often summoned him to the palace. ”
"There is also Kangning's daughter, who will often be summoned to the palace in the future. In this way, the matter of Ah Yuan Aman's entry into the palace is not so eye-catching. ”
Brother Heng is a nephew, and Sister Qiao is a niece. Empress Dowager Pei summoned the two of them into the palace, and Emperor Xuanping naturally would not object.
It's just that he always feels a little guilty in his heart: "Queen Mother, I'm sorry." Erchen originally thought that when Erchen sat on the dragon chair, he would be able to do what he wanted. Now it seems that it was Erchen who thought everything too easily and simply. ”
Even Cheng Jinrong's entry into the palace was not as convenient as in the past.
Empress Dowager Pei smiled faintly: "In the future, when Jinrong enters the palace, you will be a little more restrained." lest Liang continue to be suspicious in his heart. ”
Emperor Xuanping sighed helplessly and nodded in response.
