Hongshou Palace, just in autumn, but the desolation is already very strong.

Princess Tongchang wore a half-old palace dress, stood under the Danqi to cover her sleeves and wept, in the palace, although she had become a concubine, but the concubine Bo, who was still charming, was also trembling with anger! Miao, the personal female officer who has served her for many years, persuaded this and that, coaxed that and persuaded this, and was so busy that she was sweating, so she had to stomp her feet and said: "Now Your Majesty has not agreed to come down, and the mother is crying with the princess, what should I do if Your Majesty agrees?" ”

Concubine Bo burst into tears and said: "It's always me who wasn't careful, I was favored by the first emperor and didn't fight, I couldn't give birth to a prince, so Tongchang has no brothers to rely on, and now a concubine is just a concubine, and she has only been in the palace for a few days, so she will talk about my son's marriage casually!" That Nie Yuansheng, of course, is the grandson of the Duke of Linyi County, but not to mention that the title is not on him, the Duke of Linyi County has also gone, let's just say that the Duke of Linyi County himself is just a commoner, and even the poor family didn't want to recognize his marriage. He took a hateful sip as he spoke.

Miao persuaded angrily: "The slave maid inquired about Bo and the Cui family have already tried their best to oppose it, and now Your Majesty has not made a decision, but it is just a mention, where can you do it?" ”

"If this thing happens, it will be a slap in the face of our mother and daughter! If it doesn't work, the princess of the dignified palace will not be able to marry a person from the Liupin House who doesn't even have a title, wouldn't it make Tongchang even more faceless? Concubine Bo wept and said, "My son, why are you so miserable? ”

Although Princess Tongchang was very favored under the knees of the first emperor when she was young, she was the young daughter of the first emperor, she was still young when the first emperor went, since Ji Shen ascended the throne, the Empress Dowager Gao lived in Ganquan Palace, her status was plummeting, the Empress Dowager Gao held the shelf of everyone's daughter, although she did not humiliate them explicitly, and the rules were also followed, but when was there less people in the palace who stepped on the low and worshipped the high? I can't find fault with each ceremony, but I give enough cold eyes and ridicule.

Therefore, Princess Tongchang's temperament is a little cowardly, in fact, she has no opinion on Nie Yuansheng, she neither feels that marrying him humiliates herself, nor does she feel that she has any regret for not marrying him, but she was also confused by Concubine Bo's crying and saying, and she choked up and asked: "Mother, what should I do with my son?" ”

Concubine Bo thought about it, but she really didn't dare to go to the Ganquan Palace to say to the Empress Dowager Gao - as Miao said, Ji Shen hasn't agreed yet, if she will go to the Heyi Palace, the Empress Dowager Gao has always been unhappy when she sees herself, and when the time comes, she will simply come to say Yizhi, what can she do?

I had to cry again.

Miao had no choice but to persuade him again.

The cry spread to the outside of the hall, and the few palace maids who were waiting in the empty courtyard outside looked at each other, and they all walked away with interest, one of the palace maids walked and walked, and took advantage of the companion's inattention, and quietly went out of the corner gate of Hongshou Palace, and the familiar ones arrived at Ganquan Palace, and did not go in, only a small chamberlain who pulled through the corner door whispered a word, and then went back, and continued to serve as if nothing happened.

This little chamberlain gave the messenger who guarded the door to others, and he rushed to the Heyi Hall to tell the Empress Dowager Gao.

When Empress Dowager Gao heard "failed to give birth to a prince", the murderous intent in her eyes made the people around the palace tremble!

After the little waiter finished tremblingly, the Empress Dowager Gao picked up a bottle in the hall and smashed it to the ground, smashed it with a bang, and said through gritted teeth: "Slut!" ”

"The Queen Mother is angry!" Song and the others hurriedly knelt down and persuaded, "That Bo family has always been stupid!" What's more, now that she is not in the hands of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother can do whatever she wants, what is a mere Princess Tongchang? How could the Queen Mother be angry with herself for such a mother and daughter? ”

Empress Dowager Gao was gritting her teeth with hatred here, Concubine Wen entered the hall with her feet between her feet, and when she saw the broken bottle on the hall, she quickly put away the smile on her face, and said in surprise: "What's the matter?" ”

Seeing that it was her coming, Empress Dowager Gao suddenly burst into tears and whimpered: "That slut has such a big heart! It's a shame that the sky has eyes, and she didn't let her succeed! ”

Concubine Wen hurriedly stepped forward, persuaded and coaxed the Song family, and finally persuaded the Empress Dowager Gao to stop, and asked the little chamberlain to learn all the words, Concubine Wen listened and said: "The Empress Dowager, I didn't say you, in fact, what is there to be angry about this matter?" She also knew that she didn't have that blessing? What's more, she thought that if she had a prince, she would be able to shake the current position? I can really imagine it! ”

Concubine Wen sneered and reminded, "Don't forget that Your Majesty's position as the prince was determined by Emperor Gaozu himself!" Who can shake it? Not to mention that the Bo family doesn't have a prince in the end, she just gave birth to ten princes! And they all survive to adulthood, what can they do? Most of them have stayed in Hongshou Palace for a long time and lost their minds and went crazy! Dare to say anything! I can't give birth to a prince, but now I will hug the princess and cry! The net will make Princess Tongchang follow and not be happy! It's a bit like being a mother! ”

The Queen Mother was told by her that she gradually returned to normal, and hated: "The mourning family just thought that she pretended to be considerate in front of the first emperor back then, and kept saying bad things about the mourning family, making the mourning family and the first emperor know each other for decades, and in the years when the first emperor ascended the throne, there were no more words!" Such a slut, if it weren't for her serving the first emperor and giving birth to Princess Tongchang, where would the mourning family tolerate her? I had already sent her to the Taoist temple outside the city to pray for the blessing of the first emperor! ”

Concubine Wen pursed her lips and said with a smile: "According to me, it is not difficult for the Queen Mother to take such a breath." ”

"Oh?" Empress Dowager Gao listened, but she didn't see much joy, after Ji Shen ascended the throne, although Concubine Bo also had a maiden family, but Empress Dowager Gao really wanted to embarrass her and Princess Tongchang It was really not difficult, but Empress Dowager Gao was proud of her identity, and she couldn't let go of that face, for fear that she would be talked about outside She was not virtuous, but she was tied up.

Earlier, Concubine Wen had already had an idea because she was always angry with Concubine Bo, but Empress Dowager Gao was afraid of this and that every time, and now she said listlessly: "What should I do?" ”

Concubine Wen smiled lightly: "Actually, Concubine Bo talked about it like this in the harem, and the Cui family of the Bo family attacked the Nie Sheren like that in the previous dynasty, I am afraid that it is still ......."

When Empress Dowager Gao saw her say this, she couldn't help but care: "What? ”

"Speaking of which, there is a reason why I came to find the Queen Mother." Concubine Wen said softly, "But it's Shiro, I went out to buy a few current pearl flowers today, and I heard some gossip on the way...... When it comes to the Queen Mother! ”

"Now that they have been married, what kind of bead flowers outside can be better than those in the palace? But don't spoil Jiayi. Empress Dowager Gao was disgusted, and then she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Talking about mourning?" ”

"I heard that everyone outside is saying that the Queen Mother was ...... back then. This one...... Well, I don't like Concubine Bo, so I deliberately refused to marry Princess Tongchang, forcing Concubine Bo to ask for Bu Shunhua, who only entered the palace, even if Bu Shunhua deliberately chose only a six-pin person for Princess Tongchang to be a concubine, the Queen Mother was still not satisfied! Concubine Wen said, sighing, "It's not me who said, this Concubine Bo and the Bo family, don't care about it, it's not possible!" ”

Empress Dowager Gao was really angry when she heard this!

It's just that she also knows that not only herself, but Concubine Wen, the relationship with Concubine Bo was not necessarily any better, and this news came from King Gaoyang, Empress Dowager Gao took a few deep breaths, forced herself to calm down, and reluctantly coped: "The mourning family knows, these personal mourning families have their own plans." ”

At this time, someone came up to tell him, saying that the eldest son of the emperor was crying non-stop, so Concubine Wen took the opportunity to leave, and the Empress Dowager Gao also got up to see Ji Hui and told the Song family: "Go and check!" Is there such a thing as that? ”

Song knew the seriousness of the matter and hurriedly went.

waited until she reported after dinner, but it was even more outrageous than what Concubine Wen said-

Even the Song family said cautiously: "It is said that the Queen Mother competed with Concubine Bo for favor back then, and deliberately harmed Concubine Bo, so that Concubine Bo would only have a princess, and there would be no prince, because I was afraid that Concubine Bo would give birth to a prince and would definitely take the throne today......

"It is said that since the accession to the throne today, the queen mother has always been embarrassed by Concubine Bo and Princess Tongchang, and on the New Year's Day, the concubine and the princess appeared in front of people, and they were also cautious, which shows that they have been treated badly in the palace......

"It is said that now Princess Tongchang is also in the year of marriage, but the Queen Mother is eager to choose a concubine for King Gaoyang, but she ignores Princess Tongchang's concubine, and she clearly wants to mistake Princess Tongchang's flower letter, in order to avenge the revenge of Concubine Bo who competed for favor back then!

"It is also said...... said that the queen mother was born in a famous family, but she was the most jealous, even if Bu Shunhua couldn't see it, and said to His Majesty, His Majesty hindered the queen mother, and he didn't dare to choose a high-door concubine for Princess Tongchang, that's it, the queen mother still can't see it, the Bo family and the Cui family are afraid of the queen mother, so they ...... That's why he resolutely opposes this marriage, in order to make Princess Tongchang not descend, so as not to bring disaster to the two families...... Even...... also said that the reason why Cui Xuanming is not favored is also ...... with the Queen Mother Queen Mother ......"

Although the Empress Dowager Gao made it clear that she wanted to listen to the truth and told the Song family to say something she wanted, but when she had the courage to say this, the Song family really couldn't open her mouth, and she stopped trembling and persuaded her: "Queen Mother, this is all deliberately rumors by people with bad intentions to slander the Queen Mother's reputation!" I hope the Queen Mother cheers up, don't let that villain succeed! ”

Empress Dowager Gao was furious, but calmed down: "Do you really say that? ”

Song kowtowed: "How dare the slave and maid deceive the queen mother?" ”

"They...... How bold they are! Empress Dowager Gao trembled and pinched the corners of her clothes, and said a little blankly, "Mourning family...... The mourning family has endured these things for many years, and they ...... They still want to say this about mourning family?! ”

Before she finished speaking, the Queen Mother's body shook, and she fainted directly!

The Song family and the other waiters were all shocked!
