Chapter 192: The Battle of Flattery
The jade silk mat with natural patterns is crystal clear, and it seems that the cool steam contained in it is about to evaporate, so that people can see it, and the restlessness in the heart will subside unconsciously. Concubine Mo gently swiped her slender jade fingers across the mat, and sighed with a smile: "It's really a good thing, Xiao Wu really bothered." ”
Her henchman, Aunt Song, said with a smile: "The fifth prince remembers that the mother is good to him." ”
Mo Guifei said: "It was supposed for my sister to take care of my younger brother. What's more, although he has been frail and sickly since childhood, he is smart, well-behaved, capable, and talented. Thinking of the embarrassing situation of this young brother who was talented but couldn't show it, he couldn't help but sigh softly: "It's really hard for him." ”
Aunt Song couldn't answer, so she stood with a smile and lowered her hands.
The queen has no children, and no one in the harem can be as beautiful as herself, except for Concubine Huang Shu. Huang Shufei...... Don't mention it, there's nothing to be afraid of, how beautiful it is at the moment, how tragic it will be in the future. When his own emperor can inherit the unification in the future, it is indispensable to give the fifth brother the opportunity to show his strength. Mo Guifei smiled slightly, turned her head and instructed Aunt Song: "Go to Ningshou Palace and ask, and say that I got a good thing and want to present it to the Queen Mother." ”
Could it be that the concubine wants to dedicate this jade mat to the queen mother? Aunt Song was a little reluctant: "Niangniang, this mat is a rare thing." The maid has also seen a few jade silk mats, but she has never seen such fine workmanship. ”
"Don't say you're reluctant, I'm reluctant. But why did Xiao Wu bother like this? Aren't you just looking forward to me? The Queen Mother is the queen mother, so she should use the best. Concubine Mo's beautiful eyes flashed with determination, as long as her son was good, she would be able to say anything in the future.
"You have a heart, it's getting hot these days, and I'm feeling that I can't sleep well, but it just so happened that you sent a mat." Queen Mother Lian looked at the jade silk mat in front of her with a smile, and then looked at Concubine Mo who was serving on the side with little flattery, and waited for Concubine Mo to say something. The so-called courtesy must be demanded by others, even the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are no exception, not to mention that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is still the most complicated relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the world.
Concubine Mo Guifei knew the simple temperament of the Queen Mother, so she didn't dare to go around, and whispered with a smile: "Filial piety to the elders is ......what the junior should be" In a few words, she turned the topic to An Yi: "Thanks to Dr. Xiao An, my fifth brother who is not a weapon can be regarded as a person." These days, I have listened to Dr. Xiao An's good words, and they all say that the Queen Mother is wise and knowledgeable, and Mrs. Xiao An is precious, and the only regret is that her background is slightly lower, and she can't get a good marriage......
Although even the Queen Mother was noncommittal, the smile on her face was even bigger, and when Concubine Mo Guifei saw this, she knew that her sycophant was right, so she had to get the topic to the point: "I heard that there have been very many rumors in Beijing recently, and they all say that Mrs. Yongchang Hou and Dr. Xiao'an have fallen in love, just like a pair of mothers and daughters...... Before she finished speaking, she saw Aunt Jiang come in and whispered: "The queen mother is here to ask for peace." ”
Although Empress Liang did not give birth to a boy and half a girl, she was a legitimate daughter-in-law, and she was the first person to marry the emperor, and accompanied the emperor through a very difficult youth. Empress Dowager Lian felt sorry for her, of course she was reluctant to let her wait outside for a long time, and hurriedly said, "Let her come in." How did she come out on such a hot day? You don't persuade her, you really want to go out and walk around, and you should come out in the morning and evening when the sun is not shining. ”
Concubine Mo had some bad feelings in her heart, but she still smiled, respectfully walked a few steps forward to greet the queen, and then carefully helped the queen in, and said with a smile: "The queen mother feels sorry for the mother, and the concubine is so sour." ”
Empress Liang nodded at her: "You unforgiving mouth, you don't know how to restrain yourself when you're old." He saluted the Queen Mother, sat down and said with a smile: "What were you talking about just now?" Let me have fun too. ”
Concubine Mo Guifei is not good at telling lies, and she thinks that it is a matter of currying favor with the Queen Mother anyway, and it is impossible for the queen to dismantle the stage, so she smiled and said: "Just talking about Dr. Xiao An, it is rumored that Mrs. Yongchang Marquis fell in love with her and wanted to accept her as a righteous daughter......
Without waiting for her to finish, Queen Liang said softly: "It's not good." ”
Concubine Mo changed color in an instant, and then put up a smile and said: "Niangniang said that it is not good, there is a reason for Niangniang." ”
Empress Liang continued to say gently and gently: "It's true that Dr. Xiao An is a good girl, and it's not wrong that Mrs. Yongchang Hou is kind-hearted. But I have heard that Dr. An's father is a loyal and capable man, and the saint also means to use it heavily. If Mrs. Yongchang Hou kindly accepted Xiao An as her goddaughter, it is inevitable that there will be a villain who will talk a lot in the future, but it is not beautiful. Moreover, if it is Xiao An's marriage, there is a huge difference between this righteous daughter and her own daughter, and if she can't go up or down, it hurts people. ”
Even the Queen Mother was noncommittal.
Concubine Mo Guifei observed her words and felt that the Queen Mother should not be very satisfied with the queen's words, so she retorted with a smile: "What Niangniang said is naturally right, but if the Queen Mother wants to give someone dignity, who dares not to continue?" Let's talk bigger, aren't the dignity of people in this world all given by the royal family? ”
Empress Liang smiled but did not speak.
Concubine Mo couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and even felt that she had been a little unable to see through this dying queen.
Empress Dowager Lian frowned and said, "Okay, okay, I know." The queen understands the righteousness, and the concubine is also enthusiastic. But Xiao An does have merit, and he knows how to advance and retreat, a few days ago, I told the saint that I had never rewarded her, you made an idea for me, how to reward her best? ”
Empress Liang said unhurriedly: "She is a woman, it is more useful to give her anything than to give her a title directly." ”
Empress Dowager Lian looked at Empress Liang with blazing eyes, and Empress Liang sat there quietly, as weak as a piece of paper, but her expression was open. Empress Dowager Lian sighed and said, "There is some truth. She saved my life, and she also does a lot of good deeds on weekdays, and she has the credit of the epidemic during the first aid in Feilong Pass in the past, give her a piece of Lu rice to eat, I think people won't be too picky about me, an old woman, fake public help, right? If you really want to be picky, then give it from my private treasury, isn't that too much? ”
"Of course not, how could it be?" Concubine Mo's intestines were all repentant, and she looked at Queen Liang with a little resentment, this is the master of sycophancy, it's no wonder that it's all like this, and she can still be in the middle palace. Thinking about it again, she was a little angry, the queen couldn't see her doing well in front of the queen mother, she was a person who stepped into the loess with one foot, why was she still restless?
Empress Liang smiled calmly, sat with the Queen Mother for a while, and offered two boxes of Buddha incense made by herself, and then got up. When she arrived at the Kunning Palace, she planted her head, and the palace maid who was with her hurriedly helped her into the palace, waited carefully, and arranged to invite the imperial doctor, Queen Liang waved her hand: "No, I'll rest for a while." Leaving the henchwoman to speak, her voice was so soft that she could barely be heard: "Go and tell Tang Guogong that I did what he asked me to do, and let him not forget his promise." ”
