Chapter 51: I Don't Want to Be a Queen (11)
Tang Guo deliberately looked at the information of the Yu family before going to see Yushu.
"This Yushu really has some origins." After Tang Guo glanced at it, he couldn't help but slander.
Zao Zao couldn't help but sigh: "Sima Jin doesn't like the Yu family very much, but with his current ability, he can't move the Yu family for the time being." Yushu is the niece of the concubine Yu Qiuhong, and the second daughter of Yu Qunbo, the right minister of the dynasty, even if she has a delicate and domineering personality, and has collided with Yan Chengyu and Tang Ruo many times, Sima Jin has not punished her very severely, and it is estimated that she is also afraid of the power of the Yu family. β
Tang Guo was noncommittal, Sima Jin and the Yu family were naturally incompatible, after all, during the East Palace period, the Yu family supported Sima Lan, the third prince who grew up under the knees of the concubine.
Sima Lan's biological mother was a talented person, and she died just after giving birth to the child, and the concubine Yuqiu Hongsheng had been favored for many years but had never had a child, and later took Sima Lan to her side to raise her.
Yu Qiuhong couldn't have children, and the Yu family could only fully support Sima Lan.
Sima Lan is also very competitive, strategic, calm and shrewd, and was once Sima Jin's most threatening competitor.
However, Sima Lan was not very lucky, and on the eve of the emperor's death, he went to the northwest for disaster relief, and finally died unexpectedly in a landslide. Sima Lan is the favorite son of the former emperor, but this dynasty has the rule of establishing a descendant but not a concubine, and establishing a long and not a young, so Sima Jin can continue to sit on the throne of the prince.
After Sima Lan's death, the emperor was overly sad and developed a vicious illness, and died within a few months.
Therefore, Sima Jin was able to successfully ascend the throne and become emperor.
As soon as Sima Lan died, the Yu family had been planning for many years to be destroyed, and finally had no choice but to send the second daughter Yushu to the harem after Sima Jin ascended the throne, which was barely able to climb Sima Jin.
But Yu Qunbo is not a fool, how many evil things he did to Sima Jin and Yan Chengyu back then, and now Sima Jin wants to kill him.
It's a pity that Sima Jin's succession time is too short, and the emperor's throne is not stable, so he doesn't dare to directly take the Yu family, and the harem is also pressed by the concubines Yu Qiuhong and Yushu, so Sima Jin is also constrained left and right, so he can only endure humiliation and burden, and accumulate thick and thin.
Therefore, the current temples and harems are actually calm on the surface, but behind the scenes, there are undercurrents surging and treacherous.
Tang Guo glanced at the door of the side hall and muttered, "I always think it's too coincidental." β
Zao Zao didn't understand: "What is too coincidental?" β
"Sima Lan's death was too coincidental, and he died just before the death of the first emperor."
Zao Zao's eyes widened: "You don't suspect that Sima Jin killed Sima Lan first, and then killed his own father, right?" β
Tang Guo shook his head: "I can't say, Sima Jin is a ruthless person." β
"But...... It is also possible that the old emperor himself arranged to get rid of the three princes before he died. β
"Why? Didn't the first emperor love Yu Qiuhong and Sima Lan very much? β
A fine light flashed in Tang Guo's eyes: "How can a person who can sit firmly on the throne for more than forty years be dizzy?" You don't want to think about it, the concubine has been favored for more than ten years, but she has never had children, but she has never made waves in this harem...... Whose handiwork? β
"This method is a bit similar to Sima Jin's." Jujube jujube quickly grasped the point.
Tang Guo was silent for a moment, and chuckled: "No, it is Sima Jin's methods that are very similar to those of the first emperor. Now no one in this harem can conceive a child, to be precise, Sima Jin doesn't want Yushu to conceive a child. Yushu is not like me, she is a tool to save Yan Chengyu, once she is pregnant with a child, the concubine and the prime minister will try their best to get rid of me and Yan Chengyu to escort Yushu's son. At that time, the middle palace was in the air, and Yu Qunbo united with a group of students under his sect to admonish and coerce Sima Jin to re-establish the queen, except for Yushu...... Who else could it be? At that time, even Sima Jin was unable to return to the sky, and this world would sooner or later become the world of the Yu family. β
Zao Zao can't think of so many at all: "So many twists and turns?" The human heart is terrifyingly complicated. β
"So, I don't like Gong Dou the most, I try my best, but I can't get anything."
The money is all vain, food and clothing are not worried, but there is no way to enjoy the fun of buying and buying, and you have to abide by countless rules, the status is low, you have to salute when you see people, and the status is high, and the people around you are trying their best to pull her down, which is really boring.
"Yushu's mother clan is powerful, look at her menacing, Guoguo...... Won't you suffer? Zao Zao was inexplicably a little worried.
Tang Guo raised the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Suffer? Do I have these two words in my dictionary? β
There was a low sound of conversation in the side hall, Tang Guo smiled lightly at the corner of his mouth, and crossed the threshold with a dignified demeanor, and the voice in the hall stopped abruptly.
"The concubine greets the queen."
As soon as she entered the palace, two beauties dressed in gorgeous palace clothes and wearing light makeup suddenly approached Tang Guo, keeping a distance of three steps away from her, and blessed herself.
Tang Guo's footsteps did not stop, slowly passing past the two of them, the curvy skirt swept over the embroidered upper of the woman on the left, she walked with the smell of agarwood incense, the two who bowed down breathed, and pinched the handkerchief in their hands.
The sunken water spices are all for the emperor's use, and the concubines in the harem are rewarded at most, but since Sima Jin ascended the throne, he has only given the agarwood to Queen Kangyuan, and the other concubines have never had this treatment.
Now, Tang Ruo is the second.
Yushu is dressed in a rose-red water-colored palace dress, with a collar and placket, a brightly colored peacock hairpin on her hairpin, and a pair of green jade tassels on her temples, bright and beautiful, like a begonia that blooms early in spring, and is a spring color that cannot be ignored in the palace of this beautiful woman.
"Excuse me." Tang Guo picked a chair and sat down, raised his hand and pointed to the chair next to him, "Concubine Yu, Jiang Meiren, just sit down." β
The smile on Yushu's face did not decrease, but Jiang Meiren was a little angry, the expression on her young face was cold and hard, but she did not say anything, but she was extremely dissatisfied with Tang Ruo's behavior in her heart.
"Thank you, Queen."
Although Yushu is delicate, she is a smart person, and her position is not as good as Tang Guo, so she obediently does a complete set of etiquette, which is impeccable, even if she has all kinds of disgust and contempt for Tang Guo in her heart, she can't see anything on her face.
Tang Guo raised his eyebrows lightly: "Pinghong, change another cup of hot tea for Concubine Yu and Jiang Meiren." β
"Yes."
Pinghong immediately turned around and went out to tell the palace people to prepare, Yushu raised her eyes to look at the empty side hall, and asked: "Queen Mother, why is there no one waiting for you in the Fengluan Palace, the concubine?" You are the lord of the six palaces, upholding the power of the middle palace, and your every move is to represent the faΓ§ade of the royal family. β
"Concubine Yu is right, change the Japanese palace and ask the emperor if the Qianyuan Palace can divide a few more people over." Tang Ruo pinched the corner of his forehead with one hand and laughed lowly, "But this palace is probably not good, the emperor always dislikes the previous group of palace people for not serving them well, and sent them to the Huanyi Bureau. β
"After the new palace people are trained, the palace will pick up a few and put them in the Fengluan Palace."
