Chapter 121

The emperor is still dealing with political affairs in the study, Qi Yanzhi is also there, Yao Guifei is very "sensible" and does not bother, and waits outside the hall honestly.

"Guifei Niangniang, do you want to go back first, when the emperor is free, I am asking someone to invite you over?" Gonggong Li said with a smile, "The emperor has been busy with state affairs recently, and he often doesn't care about eating, and he doesn't know when it will be, so you are just waiting." ”

Gonggong Li refused to see the emperor in disguise, and the emperor had already ordered that no one in the harem should be allowed to come to see him when he was dealing with government affairs.

Yao Guifei didn't care, "It's okay, I'm fine, just wait for a while." ”

Gonggong Li was not reluctant, so he could only let her wait, "Then snub the concubine, you go and move a stool for the concubine to sit on, and then make tea." ”

The palace people brought the chair, and Yao Guifei sat on it and drank tea, and said: "The emperor doesn't eat, you should persuade him, even if he doesn't eat, he should take care of Qingyang Hou's stomach, people are weak, where can they stop boiling like this." ”

"Yes, yes," Gonggong Li nodded and responded, "Master Hou usually persuades, you can rest assured." ”

It was more than half an hour later when Qi Yanzhi came out, and it was the time of the meal, Yao Guifei ordered the kitchen to stew nourishing soup, and when she saw Qi Yanzhi come out, she said: "Master Hou has worked hard, why don't you stay and drink a bowl before leaving?" ”

Qi Yanzhi smiled, "The concubine is polite, Mrs. Chen is still waiting for the minister's meal at home, so she will live up to the concubine's kindness." ”

"The Hou Ye couple is really affectionate, then I won't stay." After he left, Yao Guifei entered the door, and she didn't know how to feel some jealousy in her heart.

Qi Yanzhi looks too similar to the Bai family, every time she sees his face, she feels uncomfortable, what makes her uncomfortable is that this face stays by the emperor's side all day long, and it is like a fish in her throat. The emperor's mind couldn't be clearer, I'm afraid it was for this face that he favored Qingyang Hou.

Hmph, that woman is such a scourge.

"Your Majesty, you have worked hard, take a break." Yao Guifei personally brought the soup to the emperor, "This is what I specially asked the imperial dining room to make, it's good that you don't have the appetite to drink some soup, there is everything here, and you will have energy after drinking." ”

"There's Concubine Lao." The emperor took the soup and drank two spoonfuls, nodded and praised, "This soup is good, I knew that Qi Yanzhi would drink a bowl, and he always said that I wouldn't give him good things to eat." ”

Yao Guifei gritted her teeth and smiled, "No, I just kept him, he said that he wanted to accompany his wife, I didn't expect him to have a good relationship with that child in Ruqing." ”

The emperor nodded, "This kid is affectionate and righteous." ”

"I don't know what's going on in Northern Xinjiang?" Yao Guifei cared about state affairs, "I heard that Lord Qi is in a worrying situation in northern Xinjiang, I am afraid that it will frighten a group of courtiers, won't no one dare to go to the army in the future?" ”

The emperor sighed, since the queen left, he no longer discussed state affairs with the people in the harem, probably because Yao Guifei's bowl of soup was sent to the emperor's heart, so he said in passing, "Yu Ning came to ask me a while ago, saying that he would go to the north of Xinjiang with the army, but I didn't agree." ”

"Yu Ning is going?" Yao Guifei was surprised, "Then how to make Yu Ning pampered since he was a child, where can he endure that hardship, I have heard that the war is extremely dangerous, if he has three long and two short, how is it good, you must not let him mess around." ”

Yu Ning has no mother, Yao Guifei can care about him like this, just enough to please the emperor, the emperor nodded, "What you said makes sense, but in today's court situation, no one else can go, if it comes to the point of last resort, I am afraid I have to use him." ”

Yao Guifei understood, the emperor is no one can be trusted, he can only believe in his son, there are more than a dozen sons of the emperor, except for the young, those who can go to the battlefield are only the three or five in front of the eyes, the prince is impossible, the emperor is not worried that he has military power, then only the three princes and the nine princes can be mentioned.

Of course, Yao Guifei selfishly didn't want the third prince to go, but at this time, she had to say a polite word or two, "It's better to ask Xiao Er to go, Yuning is too young, of course the eldest brother has to go for this kind of thing." ”

The emperor snorted, "At this time, don't mention that he is strong, he is a weak scholar, what did he do?" ”

The emperor commented on the three princes like this, Yao Guifei didn't feel how uncomfortable she was, the three princes were not very good at riding and shooting, but they couldn't mention it like this.

"What you said is that Xiao Er is not very good at martial arts, but he is full of poetry and books, can he still be a military advisor." Yao Guifei couldn't help but defend her son.

"Applying for a poetry book?" The emperor seemed to have heard some joke, "That's the battlefield, not to go to the wind and snow, what's the use of reading poetry and books, does he understand the art of war?" ”

Yao Guifei's face turned black when she was choked, the third prince loves to read, but he doesn't like to read the art of war, he is indeed a literati who only knows the wind and snow, which Yao Guifei also hates, I don't know how many times I persuaded on weekdays, but what can my son do if he doesn't listen to her.

"Yes, Xiao Er is not comparable to Yu Ning at this point, although Yu Ning is young, he is the most capable of their brothers, even the crown prince." Yao Guifei deliberately gave the emperor eye medicine, and Kua Yuning just wanted to remind the emperor that if an excellent son has a different heart, it can be prevented.

The emperor frowned, although this is correct, but it is not what the emperor wants, he hopes that the prince can grasp the overall situation, can have the talent to rejuvenate the country, and hopes that Yuning will be safe and smooth, but the facts always backfire, the prince's mud can't support the wall, but Yuning is talented.

Yao Guifei didn't expect her words to make the emperor's mind begin to tilt, he originally unswervingly wanted to keep Yu Ning away from the government for the rest of his life, but now that he thinks about it again, since he is the best, why not consider him, can you let those few useless people damage the foundation of the country?

Yao Guifei didn't know what the emperor was thinking, but when she knew that the emperor trusted and wanted to use Yu Ning more, she changed her mind, and she decided to fulfill Yu Ning's idea and persuade the emperor to agree to him to go to the battlefield. As long as Yu Ning goes to the battlefield, she will try her best not to let him come back, so that he is no longer a threat to the third prince.

"From the perspective of the concubines, I naturally don't want any child in the palace to take risks, but when the country is in trouble, if there is no one available, I have to ask my own children to be the head, it is none of your business Xiao Er or Yu Ning, I think as long as you need it, they are duty-bound. The concubine put her words here, if the emperor can use Xiao Er, the concubine will not stop her. ”

These words were so touching that the emperor only thought about the overall situation in his heart, but he didn't have the heart to understand the conspiracy hidden in her words.

"The concubine has the overall situation in mind, which is rare."

"It's the emperor who should be a concubine." Yao Guifei arrived.

In the blink of an eye, it was the concubine's birthday, Xie Ruqing dressed up early in the morning, and entered the palace with Qi Yanzhi, the two of them had to be separated outside the palace gate, Qi Yanzhi went to the emperor, and Xie Ruqing went to the harem.

"When are you leaving?" Xie Ruqing asked him.

"Madame doesn't have to wait for me." Qi Yan said, "If I have to be free, I will go to you, if I can't be idle, you will go home by yourself." ”

"Okay."

The two are tired of being together all day, and they have to grind for a long time before they are separated every time, and the carriage is parked outside the palace gate for a long time.

Qingshan was embarrassed to stay outside for a long time, and he especially wanted to remind the two in the car that it was almost there, but he didn't dare, for fear that Qi Yanzhi would scold him.

It was easy to wait for there to be movement inside, Qingshan hurriedly stepped forward to wait, and helped Qi Yan get out of the car, "Master, will you and your wife be in love at home in the future, and everyone at the gate of this palace will come and go." ”

"What do they care about me?" Qi Yanzhi said very indifferently, and greeted him with a smile when he saw his acquaintance.

Aoyama was simply convinced.
