Chapter 433: The Queen's Thoughtfulness
"The queen mother was listless all day, couldn't eat, and rested early."
"I know, I'm going to see her." Qin Zhao was very distressed, and walked towards the hall in three steps and two steps.
Qin Zhao walked lightly into the hall, and before he could lift the curtain, he heard Lu Qingjin's muffled voice coming from the collapsed side, "Jingshu, is there any movement over there in the Heart Cultivation Palace?" ”
Qin Zhao stood in place and was silent.
"Is it Binglan?"
"It's me." Qin Zhao lifted the curtain and walked inside.
"Your Majesty!" Lu Qingjin sat up from the collapse and looked at the person in surprise.
"Why don't you eat well?" He deliberately kept a straight face.
"Then why hasn't the emperor heard anything all day today?" She also felt aggrieved in her heart.
"I'm too busy, Qingjin, I'm really tired." He reached out and grabbed her by the shoulders and took her into his arms.
"Do you really want to take Lu Youruo down to Jiangnan with you?" It was something that confused her all day.
"I just wanted to go with you, but today the Empress Dowager suddenly sent me a message after I left the morning court, asking me to take Lu Youruo with me." Qin Zhao explained in a low voice, "I am naturally unwilling, I was about to go to the Empress Dowager to theorize, and it happened that many ministers came, and Hou asked to see me in the Palace of Cultivating the Heart, I originally thought that they were for the matter of the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, but they opened and closed their mouths to abolish the queen, and they kept saying that it was for the sake of the country, for the sake of the society, and even came to discipline me, and wanted me to set up that Lu Youruo as the queen." ”
Lu Qingjin listened quietly, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that it was those ministers' requests to see each other, and it wasn't a coincidence. ”
"Yes, later the Empress Dowager came, and in a few words, she sent those difficult ministers away, and the price was that I had to take Lu Youruo down to the south of the Yangtze River together." Qin Zhao told her everything about the matter, and he didn't hide it at all.
"Qingjin, it's not that I didn't come to see you, it's not that I didn't miss you, it's that I really can't pull away, I was already physically and mentally exhausted in order to deal with those people at that time." Qin Zhao let out a long sigh.
"Your Majesty, the concubines all understand that the concubines are not sensible." Lu Qingjin lowered his head and said softly.
"I've been busy all day, and I haven't eaten a mouthful of food, so come, accompany me to dinner."
In this way, Lu Youruo's arrangement to go out of the palace with the emperor and queen to pray for the queen mother was decided.
Lu Qingjin understands the situation, understands the general situation, and has accepted this reality, but the other four concubines can't accept it.
Why don't the four of their concubines who have been in the palace for a long time have this treatment, and she can have it?
But they didn't dare to shout in front of the Empress Dowager and the emperor, so they had to go to Zhaoyang Palace to complain, gossip, and vent their unhappiness in their hearts.
Today, the four concubines went to Zhaoyang Palace to ask for peace as usual, but who knew that they happened to meet Lu Youruo, who also came to ask for peace.
"Yo, who is this in this palace, it turned out to be Miss Lu, Miss Lu is so dressed up today that this palace is almost unrecognizable." Concubine Shu said in a strange manner.
"Miss Lu is dressed up like this, who are you going to show it to?" Concubine Yun also looked at Lu Youruo unpleasantly.
"Look at what you said, Sister Yun, there is only one man in the entire harem, Miss Lu is dressed like this, it must be for the emperor to see, this is preparing to meet the emperor in Zhaoyang Palace, right?" Concubine Shu had an expression that saw through everything.
Lu Youruo clenched his fists and resisted the urge to scold back.
"Why doesn't Miss Lu speak? The palace knows that Miss Lu is now a celebrity in front of the Queen Mother, and she will go out of the palace with the emperor and the queen mother to pray for the Queen Mother's blessings, so she must look down on us people. Concubine Shu sneered.
Lu Youruo took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart, after a while, she would go down to Jiangnan with the emperor, and she must not make any mistakes at this time.
Seeing that Lu Youruo had been dumb and unresponsive, Concubine Shu suddenly lost interest, so she left with her chin held high.
I thought that this farce would end here, but at night, a scream of pain came from the palace of the concubine.
Lu Qingjin hurriedly sent someone to ask, only then did he know that Concubine Shu's pet was dead, and the cold corpse was floating on the surface of the lake.
"Mother, who do you think did it?" Binglan asked curiously.
"Didn't you guess it in your heart?" Lu Qingjin answered lazily.
"Caritas had disappeared in the afternoon, and Concubine Shuniang also sent someone to Zhaoyang Palace to ask, but who knew that Caritas's body would float on the lake at night." Binglan shuddered, the person who drowned Caritas was really ruthless, Caritas was so cute.
"What's going on over there?" As a queen, you should also ask about the situation of the concubines.
"The lady was dizzy, and before she fainted, she threatened to kill the person who drowned Caritas and avenge Caritas." Binglan replied truthfully.
"You go and tell her, don't act impulsively." Lu Qingjin thought about it carefully and didn't plan to meddle in this matter.
Who caused Caritas's death, everyone knew it, and Lu Qingjin considered that she would go to Jiangnan in a while, so it was better not to meddle in troublesome things recently.
Binglan brought Lu Qingjin's words word for word, but it was useless to Concubine Shu who was angry.
Her favorite Caritas died, she came to Lu Youruo's residence violently, and after seeing Lu Youruo, she couldn't help but slap her.
Lu Youruo was stunned by this slap at first, and after reacting, he began to cry.
When she had cried enough, she pretended to be aggrieved, and pretended to take out the decree given to her by the Empress Dowager in advance.
The content of Yizhi is very simple, only saying that Concubine Shu has a violent personality, does not live in harmony with the harem, is jealous, and is directly demoted to Jieyu, and is not allowed to leave the Chengyang Palace within seven days.
The people in the palace were all shocked when they heard the news, and even Lu Qingjin began to sigh at Lu Youruo's methods.
Concubine Li in the palace has the best relationship with Shujieyu, and after hearing that the good sister was demoted to Jieyu and even grounded, she felt very unbelievable, and she impulsively went to Lu Youruo to theorize.
"! You can't go, mother! Miss Lu has the Queen Mother behind her, we can't be offended, Shujieyu is the best example! No one knows how many Dao Yi Decrees Miss Lu still has in her hands! Nan Qiao hurriedly stopped his master.
"Let's go, go to Zhaoyang Palace."
Concubine Li hurried to Zhaoyang Palace, and Lu Qingjin's face was not good at that time.
"! Have you ever heard about the lady? Concubine Li asked anxiously.
"She's Jieyu now." Lu Qingjin responded lightly, saying that he already knew.
"! Now Lu Youruo's limelight is too strong! Relying on the empress dowager to love her, she is rampant and domineering in the harem! Empress! You can't leave it alone! Shujieyu has suffered such a big grievance, you must be the master for her! Concubine Li wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Of course this palace wants to help her, but this matter is originally Shu Jieyu's, isn't it, this palace has already sent someone to tell her, don't be impulsive in everything, she didn't even have evidence, so she ran over and beat someone, Lu Youruo's crying entire harem knew that she had been wronged, how did you let this palace make Shu Jieyu the master?"
