Chapter 790: Uneasy
"I think it's still the Queen Mother manipulating behind her back." Shen Lanxi frowned, "Not to mention that the people who are busy outside are all the concubines, just from the level of the two of them, how can they be crushed by the queen mother." ”
Compared with the unpredictable and ruthless Queen Mother, Concubine Shu is much more "simple".
Most of her emotions are on her face, anger is anger, joy is joy, she is easy to get excited when she encounters something, and she can leave everything behind when she is excited.
It's hard to imagine how such a concubine should be the dominant person and calculate the queen mother?
"I have a point." No matter how Shen Lanxi didn't believe it, Xiao Ciyu insisted on his own point of view.
even explained it: "First of all, in this matter, you only met Concubine Shu head-on, and you didn't deal with the Queen Mother at all. Therefore, any speculation you have about the Queen Mother is imagined based on Concubine Shu's behavior.
"Obviously, Concubine Shu has a lot of opportunities to create an illusion in the middle.
On the contrary, the Queen Mother did not have such an opportunity. She was silent from the beginning, and she still does, she just stayed quietly in the Yanshou Palace, and she couldn't predict whether Concubine Shu was seriously doing things for her.
"Besides, it's all come to this point, how else can she harm us? Let Concubine Shu make you angry, and then take the opportunity to ruin your reputation to respond to us?
"What good can this be? Now this situation is just not a dead man's major event, can we still hold back a dispute in the palace?
"Besides, Chen Shoufu and others recommended you to be the queen, and there are more considerations involving the overall situation. Someone you mess with is not enough to affect the matter.
"So, what you said, I'm afraid the problem is still with Concubine Shu."
Hearing this, Shen Lanxi couldn't help but fall into silence.
According to what he said, there is some truth to it. In the whole matter, Concubine Shu has the initiative, so her chances of making trouble are obviously higher than that of the Queen Mother.
But what is she trying to do with it?
Also, why is she talking nonsense? She's really not afraid of losing her life because of this?
Shen Lanxi threw all the questions he couldn't figure out to Xiao Ciyu, and at the same time didn't forget to ask: "You just said that there was something you didn't tell me?" What is it? ”
Xiao Ciyu was stunned, and her long eyelashes suddenly drooped for a moment: "It's not a big deal, it's okay to talk about it slowly later." ”
Regarding the things buried in his heart, he did have the heart to tell Shen Lanxi. But thinking about her excited appearance, he suddenly felt that it was not appropriate to say it now.
Let's take it slowly...
Thinking like this, Xiao Ciyu took the food for Shen Lanxi and pulled her to sit down again: "Eat the vegetables first, and I will accompany you to Yanshou Palace after dinner." Let's talk to the Queen Mother in person, and this matter will be clear. ”
"Okay." Shen Lanxi was in a trance.
If you can meet the Queen Mother, it will naturally be good. But... After eating two bites, Shen Lanxi put down his chopsticks again: "Why don't we go now, it's been a while since Concubine Shu made a fuss, and I'm worried that something will go wrong." ”
"But you..." Xiao Ciyu had the intention to let Shen Lanxi eat first, but seeing that she was really unstable in eating, he didn't force it, "Forget it, whatever you want, but you have to promise me that you will eat as soon as the matter is over!" Eat more! ”
"Good!" Shen Lanxi couldn't wait to get up and pulled Xiao Ciyu out.
But when they came to the door, the two were stopped by Bai Yinran, who came in a hurry.
