Chapter 56: The Queen's Birthday
Although it was a banquet in the palace and there were a lot of etiquette, many people present looked at this situation and secretly sighed in their hearts, where is this like a banquet in the palace, the scene just now is more like a happy family of four.
Some people sigh that naturally some people are unhappy, Wan Guifei looked at the scene in front of her, and the ivory chopsticks in her hand were almost crushed.
Today is the queen's birthday, originally she wanted to take this opportunity, in the name of celebrating the queen's birthday, to let the emperor let the sunset moon come out, but she didn't expect the emperor to hesitate, saying that this matter should see what the queen meant.
As a result, she didn't wait for the news of Xiyue's lifting of the grounding until now, it seems that Queen Chu is simply making trouble from it, and she doesn't want to let go.
With a cold snort in her heart, Concubine Wan retracted her gaze and happened to see Yun Ze diagonally opposite with an envious look.
She couldn't help frowning all of a sudden, she had also heard a report from the palace people in the past few days, saying that the Seventh Prince had recently gotten a little closer to the eldest princess and His Royal Highness the Prince, originally she hadn't taken it to heart, but now looking at the envious look on Yun Ze's face, she only felt a fire in her heart.
After a banquet, Concubine Wan didn't know how to eat, and finally waited until the banquet ended, and after returning to Feiluan Palace, Yun Ze was immediately transmitted.
"Erchen has seen his mother." Yun Ze bowed.
Concubine Wan slowly got up from the beauty couch and looked at Yun Ze, "I heard that the Seventh Prince has been quite close to the eldest princess and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recently?" ”
Yun Ze was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.
Seeing Yun Ze's silent appearance, Concubine Wan couldn't help but sneer, with a bit of mockery between her eyebrows.
Although Yun Ze can be regarded as growing up beside her, he is not her biological son after all, so she doesn't pay much attention to it. It's just that what I didn't expect was that he was also a seventh prince, but the bigger he was, the more cowardly he became, and among the princes and princesses, he was not eye-catching at all.
Originally, she still thought that if the seventh prince was raised by her side, the emperor would at least come to Feiluan Palace a few more times for this reason, but in the past, the emperor would still be concerned, and in recent years, it was almost as if he had forgotten this son.
"Although this palace is not your biological concubine, but I have raised you for so many years, why, now you can pretend not to hear even this palace's questioning?"
"Erchen doesn't dare." Yun Ze gritted his teeth, and only after a moment did he speak, "Erchen is not quite close to the imperial sister and His Royal Highness the Prince, but a few days ago in the study, the imperial sister gave Erchen some cakes, that's all. ”
"A little favor will buy you?" Concubine Wangui's expression became more and more contemptuous, "You can leave this palace alone with other things, but now since you are still staying in the Feiluan Palace of this palace and raising under the knees of this palace, you should not forget that if you really want to talk about the love between sisters and brothers, it should be your third emperor sister in the first place." Now that she is being grounded by your father, you are not worried about her but are close to Yun Qingyan and them, what kind of reason is this. ”
"The son knows that he is wrong, and asks the queen mother to forgive him." Yun Ze lowered his gaze and spoke meekly.
In the lowered eyes, there was helplessness and forbearance.
He naturally knew that Yun Xiyue was his Third Emperor Sister, but this Third Emperor Sister, who grew up together, had always been quite cold to him, and sometimes he did something wrong, and he was afraid that he would be punished by Concubine Wan and would be blamed on him. How can such a third emperor sister get close to him?
"Okay, you can step aside, this palace is lacking." Seeing Yun Ze like this, Concubine Wan waved her hand with satisfaction and sent him back.
After Yun Ze retreated, Luo Mei, a henchman of Concubine Wan on the side, looked at the place where Yun Ze's figure disappeared and spoke.
"Guifei Niangniang, after so many years, the temperament of the Seven Princes seems to be getting more and more dull."
"Who said it wasn't, there is no prince in this palace, and I originally wanted to raise him by my side in this palace, so that he could have something to rely on, but now it seems that he is going to fight with Yun Yao for anything, even other princes, he can't compare at all." When she said the back, Concubine Wan's face couldn't help but sink again, "It's better now, but I'm starting to please the two brothers and sisters!" ”
Luo Mei thought for a while before she spoke: "Guifei Niangniang, in fact, there is nothing bad about letting the Seventh Prince and the eldest princess have more contact with them. ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"Niangniang, you think, the eldest princess is in the limelight at this time, if we want to find something wrong, I'm afraid it's difficult. But if the Seven Princes and the Celestial Princess have a lot of contact, maybe we can find some tricks along the Seventh Prince. Luomei's expression darkened, and a little calculation appeared in her eyes.
Originally, Luomei was just a little palace maid in Feiluan Palace, but now the reason why she can climb to the position of Wan Guifei's henchman is inseparable from the fact that she has been planning for Wan Guifei behind her back.
Wan Guifei thought carefully about Luomei's words, and slowly hooked the corners of her mouth after half a sound.
"What you said is not unreasonable, although our queen mother looks generous and gentle on the surface, but she also has means, for so many years, the people we want to send to Yunwu Palace and the Tai Palace have all been found out, since the palace people can't do it, then simply let Yun Ze go as our eyeliner. This palace doesn't believe that the queen mother can still prevent the contact between brothers and sisters! ”
"Wise mother!" Luo Mei hurriedly spoke.
Concubine Wan smiled proudly, slowly picked up the teacup on the side, and just about to drink tea, she suddenly paused.
"The emperor should be in the queen's palace today, right?"
"Back to Niangniang, today is the queen's birthday, and the emperor should be in Zhongcui Palace."
"Okay, in another hour, you will send someone to Zhong Cui Palace to report, and the emperor will say that the palace suddenly has abdominal pain, and the emperor will invite me over."
"Niangniang, after all, today is the queen's birthday, I'm afraid that the emperor's ...... may not come."
Concubine Wan raised her eyebrows, "Hmph, send someone to explain the situation in the palace more seriously, when the emperor comes, it will be very good, if the emperor can't come, you will send someone to spread the news, just say that the queen is jealous, even the palace suddenly fell ill, she stopped the emperor and did not let the emperor come to visit the palace." ”
"In this way, there will inevitably be gossip from all over the palace, and our queen mother has always cared about reputation, if you hear such gossip, it will definitely be very uncomfortable!" Luo Mei smiled and said, "Niangniang is really smart. ”
"Do it according to the instructions of the palace, isn't it the queen's birthday today, this is a birthday gift from the palace."
Putting down the teacup in her hand, Wan Guifei's expression was full of pride.
No matter how good Queen Chu's reputation is, she doesn't believe it, and as a woman, she doesn't have the slightest jealousy in her heart.
If Empress Chu can stop the emperor today, it just happens to let the emperor take a look, and the provincial government always praises the queen for her generosity.
