Chapter 289: Opinion (2)
No, it must be that the Fang family is even worse here, it is impossible for the emperor to remove the virtuous concubine, but if the queen mother's words are said, the emperor will not follow it, and it will be the Fang family's shame.
Therefore, it is not so much that Mama Liu said those words for Gu Banqin, but for the sake of Fang's face.
Fang Shi coughed dryly, but after all, he swallowed those words, and said coldly to Gu Banqin: "What do you say you are for?" If you are asked to do something like this, you can't do it. The emperor doesn't listen to you, you just find a way to make the emperor listen to you, the man relies on the wind on the pillow, and the wind blows well on the pillow, which is much more effective than those who speak and advise the ministers. It's useless! ”
The Fang clan couldn't replace the matter of dismissing Gu Banqin, so he changed his tone to squeeze Gu Banqin.
Gu Banqin raised her eyes and looked at Fang's family, and smiled good-naturedly, in fact, she didn't want to fight with Fang's as soon as she returned to the palace, Gu Banqin hoped that everyone would be harmonious, you don't offend me, I won't offend you, it's enough to be able to sit together and say a few beautiful words during the New Year's holidays, so Fang's doesn't chase Gu Banqin to find trouble, and Gu Banqin is also happy to give her face.
"Yes, yes, it's useless to be a concubine, a concubine is born not to blow the wind on the pillow, and what blows out is also a crooked wind, so the problem is to go back to the original place, this kind of bedding has to rely on the emperor's consciousness, let's make the list look good, everything is in vain if the emperor doesn't come."
What the Fang clan hates the most is Gu Banqin's soft temperament, guarding a point, always borrowing strength, never refusing to suffer a loss, and once defeated in words, Fang's words are not so harsh.
"Nothing for nothing, if you say a word for nothing, do you want the concubines of the entire harem to be widowed all day long, and look at you to moisturize the rain and dew, and they will have to die in the palace one by one?"
Fang didn't want to play Tai Chi with Gu Banqin, so he directly said the most powerful words.
Gu Banqin smiled, and the Fang clan began to talk about feelings with her, so this matter would be easy to do. Standing up from his seat, Gu Banqin put his hand into his sleeve, and paced in place several times before he said slowly:
"Actually, it's not that hard to do. The concubine wanted to ask the queen mother, what is the ultimate purpose of the harem woman entering the palace? ”
Fang didn't expect Gu Banqin to turn her head and ask her, and glanced at Mama Liu, who was also unknown, and after thinking about it, Mama Liu replied thoughtfully:
"Hui Niangniang, when this harem woman enters the palace, she naturally asks for the emperor's favor."
Gu Banqin glanced at Mama Liu, who was clear-minded, and asked, "What about after seeking the emperor's favor?" ”
Mama Liu really didn't understand what this virtuous concubine wanted to say, and after being stunned for a while, she replied stubbornly: "This is ...... After grace, it is natural to ask for an heir. ”
Gu Banqin nodded: "Well, yes, ask for an heir, then why do you ask for an heir?" ”
Mama Liu felt that the cold sweat on her back was about to come out, and looked at Fang's family, Fang's hands spread out, and asked her to continue to answer, Mama Liu couldn't, she really didn't know how to answer, if she continued to talk about it, it should involve the prince's struggle for the throne, the harem's competition for favor, these words are not something that she can talk about casually.
Fang Shi saw that Mama Liu couldn't answer, so he said to Gu Banqin for her: "What do you want to say, just say it directly, don't embarrass Mama Liu here, there are some things you can say, she can't say!" ”
Gu Banqin looked at Mama Liu, and felt that this was a talent, at least it was not easy to talk to her until now, and she was no longer embarrassed by her, and said to Fang Zi:
"Yes, since the Queen Mother has ordered so, the concubine will not be polite and blunt."
After taking a deep breath, he expressed all his thoughts to the other party: "The concubine thinks that the harem woman enters the palace to seek the emperor's favor, as Mama Liu said, after seeking favor, she is asking for an heir, and the harem woman, after having an heir by her side, it can be regarded as a consolidation of her identity, which is understandable." ”
"All the women who enter the palace think so, no one is far away, you can analyze these thoughts in depth, in fact, the reason why everyone wants to compete for favor and do everything is to have a stable status, worry-free food and clothing, and rise step by step, everyone is just asking for the emperor's favor in the name of actually asking for these material things."
"Everyone is an official girl who has just entered the palace, since she has been in the palace since she was a child, she is definitely not asking for love, and besides, even the emperor has never seen it, and the three words of love are too confused."
The more Fang Shi listened, the more he felt that Gu Banqin's words were inexplicable, and asked with a frown: "What do you want to say, just say it directly, I don't understand what you mean by making such a big bend." ”
"Queen Mother, what does the concubine mean...... Since after everyone enters the palace, what they seek is not love, but glory, wealth, and a stable status, so why must they use the matter of serving in bed, which is led by the emperor? You can completely change the way to achieve your goal of seeking glory and wealth and seeking a stable position. ”
After Gu Banqin's words were finished, there was silence in Cining Palace for a moment, Fang Shi looked at Gu Banqin with neurotic eyes, and only after a long time did he ask Gu Banqin:
"What do you mean...... Let the concubines not gain favor through the bed, and then seek glory and wealth, and seek a stable position? ”
Gu Banqin was very satisfied with Fang's understanding, and nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, that's what it means." ”
"Fun!"
Fang said such a sentence from the bottom of his heart, and looked at Gu Banqin with the eyes of a fool: "In addition to sleeping in the harem, what other methods can there be to stabilize the position?" ”
Fang felt that this Gu Banqin had really taken great pains to the point of madness in order to keep the emperor from looking for other women.
The women in the harem don't ask for favor, what do they ask?
Is it possible to ask Guanyin Bodhisattva for mercy and help the world?
It's just a joke.
Gu Banqin was not discouraged by Fang's disapproval, and after exhaling, he said what he had been thinking about in his mind these days.
"The concubine means that everyone can rely on their own efforts to obtain skill levels in the harem, for example, those who are good at qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, can use the level of qinqi, calligraphy and painting to get the level of welcome, for example, those who can embroider will be compared with those who can embroider, and those with good skills will naturally get more levels, I say this, can you understand the queen mother?"
This is the method that Gu Banqin thought about for several days before she came up with it, in the past, Helian Hongyi spoiled other women, to be honest, she didn't care, because she didn't care much about Helian Hongyi herself.
But since the last time she left the palace, she and Helian Hongyi exchanged hearts, she decided to open her mind to Helian Hongyi, try to accept him, and then this trip to Chu State, Gu Banqin has a deep love for Helian Hongyi, she likes Helian Hongyi, so naturally she will not be willing to share it with other women.
Her man can only love her alone during the period of loving her, this issue, Gu Banqin also told Helian Hongyi, and Helian Hongyi himself agreed, so the way out for these women in the harem is also the problem that Gu Banqin has been focusing on recently.
Gu Banqin's words made the atmosphere in Cining Palace silent for a moment, Fang frowned and looked at Gu Banqin, Mama Liu was also dumbfounded, the two seemed to digest it for a while before they digested Gu Banqin's words just now.
Gu Banqin saw that they still didn't understand, so she continued:
"Instead of dying alone in the palace, it is better to let each of them have a career dedicated to life, so that even if there is no man, they will not feel so lonely in the harem."
Fang Shi frowned and said coldly: "You have the emperor by your side, but you are not lonely, but you want other concubines to do these things, Gu Banqin, Gu Banqin, I really underestimated you in the past." Your domineering nature is really an eye-opener for me. ”
When Fang said this, Gu Banqin knew that she hadn't understood what she meant, and explained:
"The queen mother may not understand what I want to say, anyway, the emperor is not favored by the harem, we don't count, the initiative is in the hands of the emperor, rather than everyone waiting passively in the harem, it is better to do something, so that at least the spirit can be satisfied, it will not be so boring."
Fang Shi snorted coldly: "The emperor is favored or not, I see, it is completely in your hands, if you really have the heart to let the sisters in the harem live a good life, then why don't you persuade the emperor to get the rain and dew evenly?" ”
"This idea of yours is the most vicious I've ever seen. Needless to say, I won't agree. There should be a harem in the harem, you try to control the entire harem with your own selfishness, as long as you have me for a day, you don't want to do it. ”
Gu Banqin looked at Fang Shi patiently, took a deep breath, and said:
"My words, in fact, the Queen Mother doesn't have to be in a hurry to refute me, the Queen Mother can think about what I said right or not, I really don't have such a big measure to persuade the emperor to be evenly wet, this is a fact that will not change."
"I won't persuade the emperor to go to other women, of course I won't stop the emperor from going to other women, everything is the emperor's freedom, what I said before means that before the emperor goes to the palace sisters, everyone may not have to hold back in the palace, there are many things to do in this world, and being favored by the emperor is not the only one."
Fang's old problem has been committed again, the last time Gu Banqin came to tell her about the harem reform, she also raised the bar with Gu Banqin left and right, in the final analysis, in fact, it was because of Gu Banqin's performance that made her feel threatened and unsafe, so she subconsciously opposed all of Gu Banqin's opinions, when the harem was restructured last time, Gu Banqin did not compromise, so it is naturally impossible to compromise with Fang's today.
Turning around, the other party saluted, Gu Banqin decided to give her a period of time to think about it, in fact, it was more to let the Fang family understand a truth - she agreed or not, for Gu Banqin, there was not much difference.
It is best for the Fang clan to agree, she will naturally come to discuss with the Fang clan if she has some ideas, if she does not agree, then Gu Banqin can only make her own ideas and make decisions, and the Fang clan will not be able to participate even if she wants to.
