Chapter 151: The Desire to Control
In the Shoukang Palace, the Empress Dowager stretched out when no one was around, and she was bound by the rules all day long, and only the queen could be a little more comfortable.
As soon as she finished a big yawn, Grandma Wu led a few little palace maids in and waited for her to get up and wash and change her clothes.
Alas, trouble, the day of being watched by everyone is about to start again.
With their arms outstretched, the puppets were carefully dressed by the palace maids.
"The Empress Dowager, it's a good day, do you think it's better to wear this hairpin or this hairpin?"
A lovely-looking little palace maid held two golden hairpins in front of the Empress Dowager and asked her to choose them with a smile.
"Well, who am I dressed up for my age? It's also about choosing hairpins on the sun, and it's only you little girls who are like flowers that care about this. ”
The Empress Dowager laughed while still picking a golden phoenix hairpin.
This phoenix hairpin has abundant wings, shining in the sun, and when it walks up a little bumpy, the hollow golden feathers tremble, as if it is about to spread its wings and fly high, which is even more vivid.
Dressed up and having breakfast, Grandma Wu accompanied the Queen Mother for a walk in the garden.
"The Empress Dowager, just now Gonggong Rongyi came to report that last night the saint made an appointment with Prince Hui and Prince Chun to have a night drink in Wangyue Tower.
During the banquet, Shengshang and Prince Chun seemed to have a verbal dispute because of Miss Leng's matter, and later Prince Hui mediated it, and finally settled the conflict between the two. ”
Grandma Wu lowered her voice and whispered in the ear of the Empress Dowager.
"Alas, it seems that these two stupid boys really like that cold girl."
"But no, the old slave also heard that Prince Chun sent a large gift to Lord Yan Shihai's mansion, and also gave a pair of jade bracelets to Miss Leng in public, and Miss Leng immediately gave a silk handkerchief to the prince."
The Empress Dowager walked slowly, listened silently, frowned and pondered for a while and said:
"That'...... Is this cold girl also interested in Thirteen? ”
"The old slave doesn't know. But ah, the Queen Mother, the old slave is really a scourge to look at this girl. Otherwise, the old slave will go and invite the supervisor of Qin Tianjian over, and let him find an excuse to send Miss Leng to the Taoist temple. ”
"Alas, there is no hurry. The mourning family heard that this new prisoner had a strange temper, and he didn't even give the saint face. Otherwise, the saint will not change his hexagram and give him a temporary correction.
We don't know the details of him, and we don't have much to do with him. I didn't have to send my face to people to beat.
Besides, if we pass on the prison to come, the Holy One will definitely know, and when the time comes, won't we hold a grudge against the mourning family? ”
The Empress Dowager frowned slightly, obviously she was just a little palace maid of unknown origin, why did she suddenly become so helpless?
Since she sat in the position of the queen mother, it has been a long time since she has not had this feeling of decline and control.
It's a bad feeling! And whenever this feeling comes to her, she will be more cautious and never move.
Responding to change with the same is the key to making yourself invincible.
After all, she is the Queen Mother, no matter how much trouble the children below make, as long as they don't seem to be biased towards anyone.
Although she had the intention to help and did help Prince Chun, in the end she also agreed to the saint's conditions.
Therefore, we must not move around now, and we must first fulfill the agreement with the Holy One.
In this case, the only place that can work hard is the upcoming Shangsi Festival.
Eyeing this festival, in addition to the Queen Mother, there are also Queen Mothers and a group of palace ladies in the harem.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity because this festival is different from previous years.
