Chapter 272: A Pair of Discerning Eyes
Zhang Gui naturally didn't turn his face with the Empress Dowager Chen, he didn't even refute it, but just respectfully but perfunctorily said, "The minister knows, the cabinet will carefully consider this matter" and dealt with the Empress Dowager Chen.
Empress Dowager Chen was not stupid, she naturally saw Zhang Gui's perfunctory, and although she was unhappy in her heart, she did not pursue it.
After all, compared to the Empress Dowager Li, who still has the emperor's son to support her, she only has the honor of the emperor's concubine and this good temperament of "being able to bend and stretch".
Empress Dowager Chen secretly sighed in her heart, and after a few perfunctory words, she sent Zhang Gui away.
Empress Dowager Li had the heart to say another word to Zhang Gui, and tried to persuade him to change his mind, so she also got up and said goodbye.
Empress Dowager Chen watched Empress Dowager Li and Zhang Gui go out of the palace one after another, sneered, and instructed Mama Chen: "I haven't finished reading the previous words, so let's talk about it, what happened to the old lady who raised the concubine?" ”
Mama Chen knew that Empress Dowager Chen was angry with Zhang Gui, so she hurriedly smiled and said: "That concubine is a promising person, she went to Beijing to take the exam, won the champion, and was appointed to the official, so she immediately asked the old lady to be crowned ......."
Empress Dowager Chen sighed in her heart, this is just like when the first emperor Tundan accidentally collapsed, she pushed Qi Yu to the throne as the queen, and Qi Yu respected her as the empress dowager of Rensheng.
It's just that unlike in the story, Qi Yu also crowned his biological mother Li Guifei as the Empress Dowager of Cisheng......
That's it, who left her childless?
Let's let go of those senseless battles of will and spend the rest of our peaceful lives.
"Alas......"
Empress Dowager Chen sighed, and the spirit of the whole person seemed to be taken away again.
When Mama Chen saw it, her heart was sour, and she picked up some festive stories to tell to the Empress Dowager Chen, wanting to make her happy.
In the main hall, there was only Mama Chen's eloquent voice and silent sigh for a while, and on this smoke-like spring day, it seemed extremely lonely.
……
Qi Yu and Huang Yi'an knew that the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces was looking for Zhang Gui and wanted to persuade Zhang Gui to support the selection of concubines, so they couldn't help but worry.
However, it soon learned that the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces was prevaricated by Zhang Gui.
Later, it was found that the reason why Zhang Gui firmly opposed the choice of concubine was that he was awakened by the words of the Empress Dowager Chen, worried that the courtiers who opposed the new policy would take the opportunity to send their daughters to the palace, in a vain attempt to contain the previous dynasty in the harem and strengthen the power against the new policy.
Qi Yu sighed: "It can be seen that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can lead to a hundred battles." ”
If it was Empress Dowager Chen, she would definitely not have come up with this idea, because she knew that Zhang Gui had to "cut the grass and eradicate the roots" personality when doing things.
Because he sighed again: "If I had used this trick to advance and retreat, I wouldn't have been coerced by Yuanfu and promised not to interfere in the new policy." ”
Huang Yi'an listened to it and said: "This is said by Your Majesty, but it is not as important as the two queen mothers, I am afraid that it will be calculated for General Zhang Shoufu, and the losses will be even more heavy!" ”
Qi Yu smiled helplessly, reached out and pinched Huang Yi'an's cheek, and pretended to be angry and said: "I am the Ninety-Five Supreme, everyone in this palace is afraid of flattery, and you are the only one who dares to make fun of me like this!" Aren't you afraid to cure your sins of disrespect? ”
Huang Yi'an didn't answer and asked: "Then does Your Majesty want your concubines to flatter you like everyone else?" ”
Qi Yu was not only angry when he heard this, but laughed heartily, and deliberately said with a straight face: "You have learned to make fun of me!" It seems that I have been indulging you too much lately, and I have let you be so presumptuous! ”
After that, the conversation changed, leaned into Huang Yi'an's ear, and said in a low voice: "Wait for the evening, see how I clean you up!" ”
The warm breath sprayed behind his ears, Huang Yi'an couldn't help but tremble slightly, and the red glow immediately spread from behind his ears to his cheeks and neck, and those embarrassing pictures unconsciously appeared in his mind......
Since the decision to conceive an heir as soon as possible, Qi Yu has more and more tricks, and his energy has become more and more abundant.
If this continues, Huang Yi'an feels that he will have good news soon.
……
Before Huang Yi'an's good news arrived, Zhang Xi came to give her the good news first.
Huang Yi'an circled around Zhang Xi twice, looking at Zhang Xi's flat lower abdomen in a well-tailored spring shirt in amazement, and couldn't believe that she had been pregnant for more than three months.
Zhang Xi looked at Huang Yi'an's surprised appearance, and couldn't help laughing: "They also said that it is rare to be completely unpregnant like me. ”
While speaking, Zhang Xi subconsciously stroked his lower abdomen, and between his eyebrows and eyes was never gentle.
"I think it's because I've been practicing martial arts all the time and I'm in good health, that's why I'm like this." Zhang Xi said with a smile.
"What?" Huang Yi'an exclaimed, and said disapprovingly, "This woman is the most delicate in the first trimester of pregnancy, and you dare to dance with a gun?" It's okay to lose! Mrs. Li, they didn't dissuade you? ”
Between the words, he was quite dissatisfied with the dereliction of duty of Mrs. Li, the mother-in-law.
Huang Yi'an's maintenance made Zhang Xi's smile brighter, and she hurriedly said: "This matter has nothing to do with my mother-in-law, and I only learned that I was pregnant recently." ”
This time it was Huang Yi'an's turn to be surprised.
"How did you find out when you were almost three months pregnant?" Huang Yi'an helped Zhang Xi sit down and reproached, "You are too careless!" ”
Zhang Xi took Huang Yi'an's hand, asked her to sit down beside him, and said with a smile: "My monthly letter is occasionally inaccurate, and I am pregnant, except for some changes in taste, I don't vomit or vomit as usual, so I didn't pay attention to it."
"Later, Li Zizhen noticed that my appetite had become too good, and the taste was different from before, so he asked the doctor to check the pulse and learned the good news.
"My mother-in-law was also very happy, saying that the first three months were unstable, and the more she hid her child Xue Health, so I didn't go into the palace immediately to inform you."
The main reason was that during that time, she was worried about Zhang Lan's book, and she didn't have the heart to pay attention to other things, otherwise the child would not have been found out for more than two months.
However, there is no need to tell Huang Yi'an about this.
Now that Huang Yi'an and Qi Yu are in harmony with their husbands and wives, Qi Yu has repeatedly refused to choose a concubine for her; And Zhang Lan also identified Liu Yinger, and the two will be married in the near future.
The past, let it go with the wind.
Huang Yi'an was in a fluctuating mood when he heard this, and couldn't help but rejoice: "Fortunately, your mother and son are safe, God bless!" God forbid! ”
Zhang Xi was both moved and amused when he heard this, and asked, "Why are you so sure that I am pregnant with a son and not a daughter?" ”
Huang Yi'an raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Of course! Who made me grow a pair of discerning eyes! ”
The insight of a double life made her discover more and more things that were different from her previous life while she had experience in her previous life, such as Empress Dowager Li and Qi Yu......
Huang Yi'an has always believed that "the nature of the country is easy to change and difficult to change", so he couldn't help but think a little more about the difference between Empress Dowager Li and Qi Yu in their previous lives.
For example, although Empress Dowager Li acted differently from her previous life, her heart to help Qi Yu stabilize the country remained the same; Although Qi Yu did not obey Zhang Gui in his previous life, the purpose of regaining the monarchy was the same......
So, the reason why Qi Yu treats her differently from her previous life is because she insists on what remains the same?
