Chapter 605: I'm about to see you in the dagger
The crown princess and Concubine Lu thought about it yesterday and thought about the various requests she would make. But I didn't expect that now Chunzhi has come to this set of clearly marked prices.
Therefore, both of them were a little apprehensive.
Haruka smiled and introduced them enthusiastically. "What you want from me, you know in your own hearts, and I know it in my hearts. It just so happens that what you need is not the same, so of course I can sell you everything you want. Of course...... You've got to pay for it. “
The crown princess gritted her teeth, and she reacted at this time. "Auntie, you are also a princess of a country, how can you personally engage in such a menial job as business? If Grandma Huang knows, her old man will definitely be angry! ”
"Then you'd be wrong. The reason why I dared to do this was because my mother agreed. If she is not happy, how dare I mess around? Harueda said with a smile.
The crown princess was stunned again. "Grandma Huang actually agreed?"
"That's nature." Chunzhi bowed her head, "If you don't believe it, you can ask her now." Anyway, we're in Cining Palace, and it's only a few steps away if you go over and ask. ”
Of course, the crown princess didn't move.
Since Chunzhi dared to talk to them about business in Cining Palace, the Queen Mother naturally knew about it. It's just that she thought that the Queen Mother had an attitude of turning a blind eye, after all, as a princess with a noble status, she had never seen anyone who would be condescending to the noble, and she would go into business! If others know about this, then they won't laugh off their big teeth? The royal face will inevitably be damaged.
That's why she thought of threatening Haruka with this. However, who would have thought that Chunzhi had already agreed with the Queen Mother!
In other words, it was the Queen Mother who instructed her not to rely on anyone on either side!
The Queen Mother chose to support her again, so this matter will not be easy to do.
The crown princess sank her face, and Concubine Lu turned her gaze, and then nodded happily. "So that's what you planned, auntie? Well, let's talk about it! ”
Since Chunzhi didn't have the idea of favoring the prince's side, she was confident that with her friendship over the past years, she would pull Chunzhi back to her camp little by little.
And she also figured it out - Chunzhi is now in the palace, representing the face of the queen mother. The crown prince and the king of Qin have been fighting each other for so many years, and the queen mother has never expressed her position, so her old man definitely doesn't want to get involved in these things. At least, on the surface, I don't want to.
Therefore, when Chunzhi is still in the palace, she will definitely stick to the rules of the queen mother.
But! Now that she's agreed to sell things, that's what she means to keep going with them. As long as there is a relationship, there is a chance. She's not in a hurry, she can take her time!
After the crown princess was lost, when she heard Concubine Lu's words, she immediately reacted.
She immediately bowed her head as well. "In that case, that's fine. The price is clearly marked. ”
Harueda smiled. "Doing business is not something that can be negotiated overnight. These two account books, you go back and take a good look at them first, and when you finish reading them, pick out what you want, you make a list for me, and then we will continue to talk. ”
She paused. "However, if we talk about it again this time, it should be after the year."
"Okay!" The crown princess and Concubine Lu both nodded.
This time, Chunzhi killed them by surprise, and they are still secretly annoyed in their hearts. It's just that since the situation in front of them has become like this, and they have no power to return to the sky, they can only take advantage of the next time to plan well and strive to no longer be controlled by others next time.
Therefore, Harueda wants to postpone the next negotiations until the end of the year, which is also exactly what they want. They also need time to figure out what she thinks!
The three parties quickly agreed that Harunzhi would not keep them longer, so they let them go.
Then a few days later, it's Chinese New Year's Eve.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, officials and women above the fourth rank in the capital entered the palace to pay New Year greetings to the emperor, empress dowager and others. Chunzhi was also called by the Queen Mother early.
"On a cold day, instead of lying down in the bed and sleeping lazy, it is better to get up and move more and be in better spirits."
Chunzhi looked at the Queen Mother helplessly. "Mother, you don't feel happy because you have to get up early, and you don't want to see me sleep. What do you have in mind, you just say no, why do you still make a big sense of this little thing? ”
The Queen Mother laughed again.
"You girl, you really don't have any affection for the mourning family! Do you know that if other princes and grandsons dared to talk to the mourning family like this, the mourning family would have already punished them for kneeling! ”
"Then, mother, do you want to punish me for kneeling now?" Harueda blinked.
"Then I have to give up my family!" The Queen Mother shook her head.
Harueda immediately raised a smile again. "I knew that you loved me the most! Then I'll thank you on behalf of Miss Chen and Boy Xi! ”
"You! Are you embarrassed to say mourning? Now you're not threatening the mourning family with the morning girl and the Xi boy? The Queen Mother also shook her head helplessly.
The morning girl and Xi boy, the dragon and phoenix fetus, the queen mother liked it at first sight. In the past few days when Chunzhi came back, she had to hold her two children and play with them for a long time every day, and she would appreciate things as soon as she was in a good mood. By now, the two children have only just learned to climb, but in the next ten years, they already have the materials and toys to make clothes.
Therefore, Chunzhi is now openly using the child to pinch the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother is not angry. Even just thinking of those two fluffy little grandsons, her old man was already smiling and squinting.
Chunzhi also smiled, and she hurriedly came over and grabbed the queen mother's hand. "How dare I threaten you! My daughter just begs you to hurt me more for the sake of the two children who are still young! Otherwise, if the children see their mother being scolded, they will definitely be sad! ”
"Poor mouth!" The Queen Mother gently slapped the back of her hand, but the corners of her mouth were raised higher.
Seeing this, Chunzhi hurriedly talked about all kinds of interesting things about the dragon and phoenix fetus with the Queen Mother. Children, there will always be a lot of fun things every day, Chunzhi can't finish talking, and the Queen Mother can't listen enough.
While the two were talking, they heard the eunuch report: "The Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and the Imperial Concubine are already outside the door." ”
"Then let them in!" The Queen Mother bowed her head, and she went to sit down on a chair outside with Chunzhi.
According to the rules, every year when the wife enters the palace to pay homage, the queen mother must meet with the queen and the imperial concubine. But the queen mother is old and senior, and now there is something to do in winter, the queen and concubine naturally dare not work the queen mother, and she comes over in person every year.
This time, they did the same.
Waiting for the two of them to enter the door, Chunzhi greeted them first, and then the queen and concubine saluted the queen mother in turn.
The Queen Mother waved her hand casually. "Sit down! On this day, you all have to be tired enough. ”
The Queen Mother was right.
Not long after the queen and concubine sat down, the wives had already entered the palace in turn. The palace maids and eunuchs took a roll call one by one, calling these people in according to their status and hierarchy to talk to the Queen Mother and others.
Chunzhi sat next to the Queen Mother, and she watched the Queen Mother and each of these people say two words, and then send them out, call two more in, and send them out with a few more words...... It went on like this, and the day went by.
Not to mention that the Queen Mother, who is concentrating on dealing with the marquee-like wives, feels tired, Haru Zhiguang is watching from the sidelines, and she feels so tired.
Moreover, although she has been accompanying the Queen Mother, she also quietly observed the Queen and the Imperial Concubine during the process. She found that by noon, the queen's face had already shown a trace of fatigue, and her eyes had become dull. Even the thick makeup on his face can't hide this tiredness!
So, after taking off the heavy makeup, I wonder how ugly the queen's face will be now?
She clearly remembered that when she came to the palace to visit the lady of the North Kingdom three years ago, the queen was in good spirits. It's only been a few years, and the queen has already aged like this?
The Queen Mother naturally also found out about the queen's condition, and her old man's brows furrowed slightly. "Queen, if you are tired, you can go back and rest. The people who matter horizontally and vertically have already seen the same. The rest of the kittens and dogs, the mourning family and the imperial concubine can see each other together. ”
"No, the retainers can bear it." When the queen heard this, she immediately shook her head, and suddenly raised her eyes, and this gaze met that of the imperial concubine.
Between the lightning and flint, Haruka saw a trace of murderous intent in the eyes of these two people.
She suddenly understood - it seems that the imperial concubine has been pressing step by step over the years, and she has forced the queen to this point!
Both sides are approaching the time to see each other. Thinking of this, Chunzhi's heart trembled, and she quickly lowered her head.
These things in the harem have nothing to do with her anyway, she won't be involved anymore if she is killed.
Definitely not!
