Chapter 275: Sabre-rattling (2)

After a long time, he entered the door alone, and Ah Zhi hurriedly greeted him, "Your Highness...... How did you come back on your own, slave and maid should wait for you. ”

She probably thought that Cao Tingyu and Chi Chi had quarreled halfway, so she just left Chi Chi alone and left.

After all, the two of them seem to have had a dispute before.

But to put it bluntly, in fact, Ah Zhi still can't believe it in his heart, as far as Cao Tingyue's attitude towards Chi Chi is concerned, he will ask Chi Chi Yi to come back? This is not quite in line with Cao Tingyu's usual habits.

Chi Chi shook his head, "He sent me back, he just left." ”

Ah Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said, "Your Highness is tired?" The slave and maid have someone bring water in and wash it in Your Highness. ”

Chi Chi nodded, Ah Zhi went out, and Ah Wei came in.

She didn't go with her today, originally if it was before, she would have been a little sad in her heart, because thinking that the person His Highness believed in the most was not her after all, but today's words she didn't have such convenient thoughts at all.

It's also amazing to say, since he got well from a serious illness, Awei seems to be a different person, and he is completely different from before.

Ah Zhi also talked to her, and Ah Wei also said openly, "I just understand a little, I am not as important as I think, His Royal Highness will have his own way to go, and those who should accompany His Highness along the way should be useful people." ”

When she said this, Ah Zhi didn't know what to say, so she could only comfort her, "You appeared when His Highness needed you the most, and you can't say that you yourself are useless." ”

Ah Zhi smiled, "So, it is actually my honor for me to be able to accompany His Highness through that journey, and if His Highness has a place to get me in the future, I am still obliged, anyway, it is ...... I must always be by His Highness's side, I must be a person who can be completely trusted, but I am not the same as before, not that I have to be the person Your Highness believes in and is closest to me. ”

Her eyes were lowered, as if she was very open-minded.

Only Ah Zhi knows that a palace maid was originally the palace maid who served her master the most, and she could be said to be the most trusted person by her master, but now she is willing to quit like this, although Ah Zhi really doesn't understand what she has realized in this.

But I also have to say that this slow look at people is really quite there.

At the beginning, among so many people, she was isolated and helpless, and she directly chose Awe, and this Awei obviously lived up to her.

"Is Your Highness okay today?" Chi Chi looked at Awei and smiled, "Where have you been all night, I only saw you late when I came back this time." ”

Ah Wei said, "The slave and maid are watching the bird's nest in the small kitchen, and they know that His Highness has never eaten anything at this kind of banquet, so he prepared a supper early and waited for His Highness to come back to use it. ”

This palace dress is indeed cumbersome, fortunately it's not summer now, otherwise I really don't know if I wear three layers here and three layers outside, and I will be suffocated to death by heat stroke.

She nodded, and Ah Wei came up to serve her to change her clothes, and then said, "Seeing that His Highness is in a good mood, is there any good news?" ”

Good news?

Slowly hooked her lips, "The second princess is pregnant." ”

Awe's hand smacked.

Chi Chi turned his head to look at her, "What, isn't it good news?" ”

Ah Wei frowned, "The slave doesn't know if this counts, but now the second prince has been reprimanded by His Majesty, and he hasn't completely healed, and now this kid can be regarded as a solution to his urgent need." ”

Awei didn't think it was good, "I'm afraid it's even the queen's side...... It's going to get better. ”

"So you don't think it's good?"

Ah Wei nodded, "We finally have a chance to bring down the queen mother, and now she has a chance to breathe." ”

"Wheezing?" After a long time, he almost took off and changed into the clothes in his palace.

"You think this is a respite?"

Awe didn't understand Chi Chi's words.

Chi Chi said, "It's because the second princess is pregnant that there will be more people eyeing each other, do you think this eldest grandson is so easy to give birth?" ”

Ah Wei was taken aback, "But Your Highness, who dares to go to the Second Prince's Mansion to do it, if you catch it, it will be a matter of losing your head, and I'm afraid that it will affect the people in the family." ”

Chi Chi smiled, "Don't worry, everyone won't think about targeting the Second Prince's Mansion, it's just that everyone is trying to find a way to speed up the process of making this queen mother no longer so smooth." ”

In seven months, if you don't want the status of the queen and the second prince to be as stable as Mount Tai, you have to do something.

So, that's it, the saber rattling begins.

In the harem, there is already a smoke of gunpowder that can be seen with the naked eye.

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but be aimed at the queen, and the queen must have known at this time that she must be the target of the public.

But for the queen, none of these people are worth mentioning.

When her good grandson lands, the position of the second prince is almost stable, and when the time comes, don't these people just need to be people with their tails between their legs?

There won't be any difference.

On the second day of the Halloween Festival, another person was ushered in in the palace for a long time.

It was Ah Wei who came in and replied, "Your Highness, Concubine Rou has arrived." ”

Of course, Chi Chi would guess that she would come, after all, Concubine Rou was of course a particularly scared and nervous person at this time.

Chi Chi hummed, and then turned a page of the book in his hand, "Well, you let her wait, I'll change my clothes here and go out." ”

Ah Wei glanced at Chi Chi, and when he saw her unhurried appearance, he thought that he wanted to dry this concubine.

Awe didn't understand why, but she did it anyway.

Concubine Rou sat outside, frowning, and she could see that her mind was very worried.

When she saw Awei come out, she stood up suddenly, "What about Your Highness?" ”

Awei asked her to add tea, and then lowered her eyes, "Your Highness is changing clothes inside, and I also invite Niangniang to wait, Your Highness will come out immediately." ”

Concubine Rou couldn't say anything, just bit her lip, and then sat down.

Chi Chi felt that Concubine Rou should have finished drinking two teas, so she came out of it slowly, and then smiled at Concubine Rou, "I've been waiting for a long time." ”

Concubine Rou could only say, "It's okay." ”

sat down for a long time, and then looked at her, "Concubine Rou Niangniang came today to ......"

Concubine Rou said, "Yesterday's incident, His Royal Highness will not fail to understand what this means. ”

Concubine Rou's face was not good, "What I said on Your Majesty's side before, it is impossible for the queen not to notice it, and the relationship between me and her is already on the same footing, not to mention it...... She had already seen me as a thorn in her side and a thorn in her flesh. If you give her power now, I'm afraid it will be...... My life in the harem is even more difficult. ”

Chi Chi frowned, "Why should Niangniang think like this, Niangniang has the honor of His Majesty, and the queen will not dare to do anything." ”

Concubine Rou also has some means in the end, at least she has returned to the emperor's side.

Otherwise, the last time the second prince happened, it was not so easy for Concubine Rou to persuade the emperor to speak.

In the end, Concubine Rou didn't make any big mistakes before, and men are much more tolerant of beautiful women after all.

Concubine Rou stood up and paced around the room, "Your Highness, is this pretending not to understand or really not understanding, is this palace afraid of the current queen mother?" Seven months later, once the father of the second prince is more expensive than the son, then he will really get the ......" She said in a very soft voice, spit out those two words vaguely, and then said, "At that time, she will really wait for the position of the queen mother in a hundred years, then I don't just want to let her go." ”

Concubine Rou felt uneasy, and her steps were faster, "I used to stand with His Highness, and I listened to a lot of His Highness's words, just because I believe that His Highness is the one who has the means, and His Highness is the one who can prevent me from coming to this step......"

"But the pregnancy of the second princess is not something I can control." looked at her with embarrassment, "I know, the second princess is pregnant, and the matter makes Niangniang feel that the situation is very complicated, in fact, I think so too, after I came back last night, I thought a lot, thinking about what we should do, so that this matter will not become so bad, at least it will not become a situation that we are all afraid of." ”

Concubine Rou didn't dare to say anything, but Chi Chi didn't look afraid of anything, "At least you can't call the second prince to become the prince." ”

Concubine Rou looked at Chi Chi, "So, Your Highness has a way, right?" ”

Chi Chi smiled, "How much can Niang Niang pay for this?" ”

Concubine Rou frowned, a little puzzled, "What does Your Highness mean?" ”

Chi Chi said, "Niang Niang should know that if we want to stop the second prince from becoming a prince, there are only two chances." ”

Concubine Rou stopped her steps, sat down again, and muttered to herself, "Either the second princess can't be born." ”

Chi took over the conversation, "But we are far away in the deep palace, and we are simply beyond the reach of the second prince's mansion, and now I am afraid that both the second prince and the queen are very wary of this, but I am afraid that the second prince's mansion is even more impassable, if we want to take this road, I am afraid that it will be difficult." ”

Concubine Rou nodded, if it is the concubine in the palace, even if it is well defended, there is actually a chance.

But if you are outside the palace, it will be more difficult and troublesome.

"So what's the other opportunity you're talking about......

Chi Chi stood up and walked to Concubine Rou's side, which was to fill her with tea in person, "That's why I want to ask Concubine Rou how far you can sit for this." ”

The tea was eight points full, and he paused for a long time, and then looked at Concubine Rou, who was not shocked and endless, "Concubine Rou, do you want to be the queen?" ”

What the?
