Chapter 208: Send someone to invite
Yun Qingyan nodded, "Queen Mother, you don't agree to release people, so naturally it is also a matter of course." It's just that if the father really moves, such a thought, coupled with the pressure from the court, maybe the Empress Dowager Liu will be released, it's just a matter of time. ”
"This is also clear in the heart of this palace, if that is the case, you can only take one step at a time."
As soon as Empress Chu's words fell, a palace maid outside suddenly walked in hurriedly.
"The slave has seen the queen and the eldest princess."
"What?" Empress Chu asked.
The palace maid cautiously glanced up at Yun Qingyan, and then said: "The Queen Mother of Disease is the news from the Queen Mother's Palace, saying that the Queen Mother knows that the eldest princess is back, and hopes that the eldest princess can go to see her." ”
"What?" Empress Chu was stunned, "Isn't the Queen Mother still grounded now." ”
"Back to the queen, the slave doesn't know, only knows that it is the news from the queen mother's grandmother, saying that she hasn't seen the eldest princess for a few months, and the queen mother hopes that the eldest princess can go and ask her to say goodbye."
"No, no." Empress Chu said with a cold face, "Yan'er has just returned to the palace, she got the news, and she is so impatient to see someone, who knows what kind of medicine is sold in her gourd." ”
Since the last incident, although she has not seen Empress Dowager Liu again, she can figure it out that she must still be unwilling in her heart.
If it weren't for Yan'er, her plan wouldn't have been revealed, and if she wanted to see Yan'er at this time, she would definitely not have any good intentions.
"Queen Mother, anyway, the identity of the Queen Mother is still there after all, she has already sent someone to see the eldest princess, if we refuse directly, will it be a little inconsistent?"
Hong Feng opened his mouth a little uneasily, after all, now the court is already full of rumors, if this time the matter spreads again, I am afraid that whether it is the queen mother or the eldest princess, it will end up with a reputation of disrespecting elders.
"Even if Yu Li is incompatible, what can she do, not to mention that she is already grounded now, it is not in accordance with the rules for Yan'er to visit. What's more, who knows if she is playing some tricks and wants to deal with Yan'er. ”
If she really just calculates herself, she will definitely not allow her to calculate her own children.
"Queen Mother, I'd better go and take a look, you don't have to worry, after all, the Queen Mother is still grounded now, and she shouldn't be able to do anything. I also wanted to see her, and suddenly someone sent me over at this time, what the hell did she want to say? ”
There are also those remarks in the court now, I am afraid that I can't get rid of the relationship with the Empress Dowager Liu, being in the harem, being grounded again, and being able to affect the court, the Empress Dowager Liu must still have the means to contact the outside world.
"Yan'er, the queen mother knows that you are smart, but after all, the Empress Dowager Liu has been in this harem for so many years, and her thoughts and means are not comparable to others. The best way is not to provoke, and don't care, the queen mother really doesn't want to see you and Yao'er hurt again. ”
"Queen mother, don't worry, your daughter is measured in her heart." Empress Chu in the cloud clear smoke smiled, and then spoke to the palace maid standing at the door, "If you go to reply now, just say that this princess will go to visit the queen mother later." ”
"Yes, slave and maid obey." The little palace maid nodded hurriedly and retreated quickly.
After appeasing Empress Chu a few more words, Yun Qingyan left Zhong Cui Palace and went to Empress Dowager Liu's palace.
"I've seen the Queen Mother." In the main hall, Yun Qingyan looked at the Empress Dowager Liu, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.
"The eldest princess came much faster than the mourning family expected." Empress Dowager Liu sat at the table, still holding a teacup in her hand, and with the action of skimming off the tea foam, the heat in the cup rose.
"Since the Queen Mother wants to see me, she naturally doesn't dare to slack off at will." Yun Qingyan stood up straight, "It's just that I don't know what the purpose of the Queen Mother is so eager to send someone over to me?" ”
"The mourning family originally thought that your queen mother would not let you come, after all, in her eyes now, the mourning family should already be like jackals, tigers and leopards." Empress Dowager Liu sneered and put down the teacup in her hand.
Yun Qingyan shrugged her shoulders, "The Queen Mother laughed, no matter what, the Queen Mother, you are the elder of the Queen Mother, even if you have done something wrong, but in the heart of the Queen Mother, you naturally still respect you." ”
"Okay, there is no need to say more about such beautiful words in front of the mourning family." Empress Dowager Liu paused, "The mourning family came to you today because the mourning family knows that you are a smart person." ”
"What does the Queen Mother mean by this?"
"Presumably, the voices above the court now, your queen mother should have told you. If he continues to confiner the mourning family, it will definitely cause more gossip, but according to the queen's temperament, I am afraid that he will not let go so easily and promise the emperor to let the mourning family go. So......" Empress Dowager Liu paused, stood up and walked in front of Yun Qingyan, looked into her eyes and continued to speak, "The mourning family hopes that you can persuade the queen to stop obstructing this matter in front of the emperor." ”
"Why is the Queen Mother looking for me?" Yun Qingyan shook his head, "After all, the Queen Mother almost poisoned my queen mother before, you should know very well that in my heart I don't want to see you released at all." ”
"The mourning family has just said that you are a smart person, since you are a smart person, you should know that in this situation, if you bite the mourning family to death, the final result can only be a lose-lose situation." Empress Dowager Liu sighed, "Presumably, you don't want to see your queen mother become the target of public criticism!" ”
"It's nature." Yun Qingyan responded, "However, if you really let go of the Queen Mother, what benefits can I and the Queen Mother get?" If it's just to avoid being talked about by the courtiers and losing a good reputation, I'm afraid it's really worth the loss. ”
"As long as you are willing to relent, persuade the emperor to lift the confinement of the mourning family, the mourning family will never trouble you again after that, and the well water will not interfere with the river water from now on. Of course, if Liu Wushuang still wants to embarrass you in the future, it is not impossible to mourn the family to help you. ”
Empress Dowager Liu's eyes were full of indifference and calculation, and when she mentioned Liu Wushuang's tone at this moment, there was no longer a trace of emotion.
Yun Qingyan was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, he couldn't help laughing.
"The Queen Mother has really lived in the deep palace for a long time, and even the benefits she promised to others are so illusory. Whether it is from now on whether the well water does not interfere with the river water, or whether it helps me deal with Liu Wushuang, it is all in the air. How can I believe that the Queen Mother will not regret it in the future? ”
In fact, Empress Dowager Liu was lifted from the grounding, and judging from the current situation, it is very likely that it is only a matter of time.
But since the other party wants to make a deal, they naturally can't suffer a loss in this transaction!
