Chapter 30: The Draft Battle
Gu Banqin saw the side light that Empress Dowager Fang glanced at in the direction of Gu Nianshu, and guessed what Empress Dowager Fang was thinking in her heart.
Empress Dowager Fang clearly compared her with Gu Nianshu, because in the harem of Daqi, there are two or three big cats and kittens, only the two of them are sisters who are related by blood, and they are still connected to the tendons when they break their bones, and Gu Fengmao brought Gu Banqin into the palace at the beginning, so it is inevitable that he did not have the intention of letting his two daughters form an alliance and dominate the harem.
Of course, compared to Mu Ne's Gu Banqin, Gu Nianshu, who is extremely excellent in all aspects, must have attracted everyone's attention, Empress Dowager Fang felt threatened, but why?
Gu Banqin couldn't understand why a queen mother would think that one of her son's concubines would threaten her?
The queen mother doesn't have to compete with the concubines for favor......
Wait, Gu Banqin suddenly thought of something, it is true that a concubine cannot threaten the queen mother, but the queen is not necessarily.
Daqi is newly established, the harem is empty, the east palace has no owner, and the phoenix position is undecided, the Empress Dowager Fang must want to arrange a person of her own to be the queen mother of the world, naturally she can't see anyone else sitting on the throne of the queen, and any powerful candidate is not used to today's Empress Dowager Fang.
What's more, Gu Nianshu, who is a seeded player in all aspects.
Take the current harem as an example, Concubine Zhao Defei is the princess of the Zhao family in the previous dynasty, and the chance of being the queen is basically zero.
Xie Xia is the eldest daughter of the Zhenguo Mansion, a royal family for generations, and the blood is noble, but the reputation among the people is not obvious, and the surname of the ordinary boss is only heard of the Xie family in the story.
On the other hand, the Gu family, Gu Fengmao was born as a literati, a noble family, before Gu Fengmao had been a master of the academy, there were many students, it can be said that the world is full of peach and plums, and the Gu family has no soldiers, and has not become a relative to interfere in politics.
In this way, among the three concubines, Gu Nianshu has no suspense, and she is the most likely to sit on the phoenix chair and have the greatest chance of becoming the queen.
Moreover, since Gu Fengmao became prime minister again, he has been working diligently, and the performance of the emperor's favor, in the eyes of the Empress Dowager Fang, is the Gu family's imperative performance of the queen's position.
No, it was not enough for Gu Nianshu to enter the palace as a concubine, and she sent a concubine in for the second time, although this concubine's brain doesn't look very flexible, but this foxy appearance is not a serious woman at first glance.
Now in the harem, the concubine is virtuous and prestigious, this bewitching Baolin lord is bewitching and seductive, this is a proper performance to hold the harem in his hands!
So Gu Banqin had just finished sleeping, and as soon as Empress Dowager Fang got the news, she summoned someone over as soon as possible, naturally to see what kind of goods this Baolin who had just entered the palace was, and by the way, try how many catties and taels Gu Banqin had.
And Gu Banqin's performance made Empress Dowager Fang not only satisfied with her stupidity and lack of brains, but also secretly hated Gu Banqin for giving birth to a bewitching Yazi.
But it's okay, if you don't have a good brain, Gu Nianshu will drag her feet, and the enemy has a pig teammate, which is always pleasant, isn't it?
So the more Empress Dowager Fang thought about it, the happier she became, and her gaze at Gu Banqin was really kind.
After saying this, Gu Banqin, who didn't know what Empress Dowager Fang had made up in her brain, sat down in the latter's loving gaze.
"Since the Helian clan inherited the mandate of heaven, the emperor responded to the mandate of heaven, ascended the throne as the king, has been the first emperor to keep filial piety for more than a year, the emperor's filial piety, the first emperor has received, the mourning family is very comforting."
"But this year's filial piety period has passed, yesterday Gu Baolin was the first to receive holy grace, the first to inherit the rain and dew, this is a day of great joy, since the first emperor went west, the mission of urging the Helian bloodline to pass on from generation to generation fell on the head of the mourning family, and the first emperor also left three princes and four princesses."
"The emperor followed the emperor for half his life, and now he is busy with state affairs, until today, no heir has been born, the mourning family knows that the four of you in the harem have the heart to continue the bloodline of the heavenly family, but only the four of you, the mourning family is worried that you have more than enough heart and insufficient strength, so the mourning family thinks, the edict of the world, for the emperor to select the virtuous, fill the harem, and extend the heirs, I don't know what you think?"
Gu Banqin sat at the bottom of the seat, and could clearly see the reaction on everyone's faces.
Concubine Gu Shufei was as calm as ever, the corners of her mouth twitched a few times, a little bored, ignoring the meaning of vulgar things.
Concubine Zhao Defei clenched her hands and pulled the golden silk handkerchief in her hand, which was a sign of uneasiness at first glance, while Xie Zhaoyi bit her lip, and she also looked unhappy, but the Empress Dowager Fang was holding the banner of continuing the bloodline for the royal family, and no one could refute it.
This draft is nothing more than an excuse for Empress Dowager Fang to bring her own people into the palace, Gu Banqin's heart is like a mirror.
I just thought that if the Gu family could get the news earlier, why would she be sent into the palace by the Wang family to be Gu Nianshu's shield?
The hall was silent, and no one spoke.
Empress Dowager Fang smiled and asked again, "What's the matter, do you all have any opinions?" ”
"Well, if you have no opinion, the mourning family is decided like this......"
Xie Zhaoyi thought about her situation, and finally couldn't help it, one got up, stood up, and said the words in her stomach like a cannon:
"Empress Dowager Qi, the blood of the heavenly family is not dependent, it's not that I can't fight, in the past there were only a few short days in the prince's mansion, when the first emperor was still there, the emperor was the prince, helping the first emperor deal with the story, and most of the day was resting in the palace."
"The first emperor died, the emperor hurriedly ascended the throne, while guarding filial piety, for the first emperor to keep filial piety for a year, on the other hand, he was even more busy with his feet not touching the ground, diligent in political affairs day and day, staying overnight in the palace of nourishing the heart, this year has never set foot in the harem for more than a year, and now, I am not afraid that the queen mother and the sisters will laugh at me, so far the emperor has never set foot in my Yushu Palace."
"Now the Queen Mother wants to draft for the emperor, fill the harem, and continue the bloodline of the Heavenly Family, I'm afraid that when the time comes, the newcomer will come in, and I won't have a chance at all when I wait for yesterday's yellow flower......"
After Xie Zhaoyi finished speaking, her eyes drifted to Zhao Defei opposite, Zhao Defei Zhen received the signal from her teammates, gritted her teeth, and also stood up and said:
"The Queen Mother is merciful, I am also in the same situation as Sister Zhaoyi, so I understand Sister Zhaoyi's situation, we have never received the emperor's favor, as soon as this draft opens, there are countless newcomers, I am afraid that Sister Zhaoyi and I will ......"
"It's okay for me, I know that my identity is here, I'm in an embarrassing situation, the emperor snubbed me, I have nothing to say, but Sister Zhaoyi has not been favored, and this Baolin sister is also a new Chengyulu, so she shouldn't be treated the same coldly."
After listening to the two of them, Gu Banqin smacked her tongue slightly, who would have thought that the emperor had never touched Concubine Zhao Defei and Xie Zhaoyi?
These two are not bad, right?
Could it be that in the first few months in the Prince's Mansion, the emperor has always favored Gu Nianshu alone?
