Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Contest (1st Update)
When the queen learned that Hua Ruyu was involved in the robbery and murder, she angrily broke the teacup in her hand.
She didn't expect that Hua Ruyu, a woman, was bold, and after entering the palace, she was really restless, and in a short time, she would take revenge.
If it weren't for Mama He's persuasion, she would have rushed to Hanxiang Palace in one breath and tore her up.
The queen, who was persuaded by Mama He, calmed down, thinking that An Huajin said that she had drugged her that day, and her heart was finally more comfortable, so she thought of the emperor, with his understanding of the emperor, he would definitely protect that woman, not to mention, that woman was pregnant with an imperial heir in her belly.
So, she immediately issued an edict and first banned Hua Ruyu and prevented her from seeing the emperor.
She has been in the harem for twenty years, and she knows better than anyone how much of a woman's tears are weapons. What's more, the emperor is still a person who loves beauty and beauty.
After grounding Hua Ruyu, the queen didn't plan to sit and do nothing, and ordered someone to drive, and she went to the south study.
is related to the robbery and murder of her niece, and she, as an aunt and a queen, must always show an attitude.
If Chu Chen's pressure on His Majesty in front of the civil and military officials of the court was not enough, she was in the harem, and she had to add another amount of pressure.
Controlling the harem concubines is her business, and now that Shun Concubine has such a thing, she can't help but say a charter.
No matter how angry His Majesty is with him, he can't tell her that she is wrong.
So, the queen soon went to the south study.
After the emperor sent Chu Chen away, he was still angry, and at the same time he was bored, he walked back and forth on the ground of the south study, and he didn't think about how this matter could be turned into a small matter.
At this time, the queen came.
Gonggong Zhang was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was respectful and frightened, and he said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the queen asks to see you." ”
"Nope!" The Emperor spoke very decisively.
Father-in-law Zhang's face was embarrassed, "This ...... Niangniang said that I must see Your Majesty today. ”
The emperor's face was gloomy, he knew what the queen was here for, Chu Chen left, and a queen came. Is it time for his seventh son to come after sending the queen away? An Huajin, that little girl should also be found? Who else? The old man of the Gu family? Gu Qingyan? Do you have to find them all?
The emperor felt a headache, but still gritted his teeth, "You go and tell her that I don't want to see her today." ”
Father-in-law Zhang was helpless, he didn't expect the emperor to be so reckless, so he could only go out and inform the queen.
The queen and the emperor have been married for 20 years, and they know him even more, and the emperor Laipi, relying on the identity of the emperor, said that if he can't see her, he won't see her, but she can wait. She didn't believe that he wouldn't be out of the South Study today. If he doesn't come out of the south study, that's the best, when Xiao An'er's medicine takes effect, Shun Concubine is sick, she doesn't have to know about him, she will stop all the people who come to report the news, and it is best for Shun Concubine to die of illness.
She has been in the palace for 20 years, and has always been careful to follow her father's teachings, and has never used extreme means against any concubine.
The queen instructed, "Bring a chair to the palace, and the palace will sit under this porch, waiting for His Majesty to see the palace when he is in a good mood." ”
The queen made up her mind that if she didn't leave, she would also play tricks.
Father-in-law Zhang was impressed, and hurriedly ordered someone to move a chair to the queen.
Under the eaves of the south study, there are eaves to cover, the wind does not blow, the sun does not shine, and it is very cool. The palace people who were waiting in the south study did not dare to snub the queen and brought him hot tea.
The empress sat dignifiedly, drinking tea while waiting for the emperor.
The emperor listened to the movement outside the south study, and knew that his wife, it seemed that she was very angry today, so many years her mother was in the world, gentle and dignified, and she had never persecuted him anything, even if he was most suspicious of Nanyang Palace, she had never treated her face coldly, her nose was not her nose, she had never been gentle and gentle.
Today, she's clearly consumed with her.
From the queen's point of view, he still can't blame her for her mistakes. Even if he was at a loss, he could scold Chu Chen, and even kick Chu Chen in anger, but for the queen, he couldn't.
If he had seen her, he would have to listen to the queen talk to him about the sins of the concubines today.
The emperor felt that his brain was about to explode, and he could hide for a while, so he secretly competed with the queen. Looking forward to the fact that it was too hot, the queen's body and bones couldn't stand it, and it wouldn't be long before she couldn't resist it, and then went back to her Fengqi Palace.
But the emperor forgot that no matter how bad the queen's body is, she is still the daughter of the An family. For so many years, in the harem, she has not practiced some simple kung fu to strengthen her body in a no-man's land. After all, in the harem, a good body is too important. She has a family and a son, and she must live well to have the last laugh.
An hour later, the queen was still sitting under the eaves of the south study.
The emperor gritted his teeth and endured.
The emperor didn't wait for the queen to come, but he didn't want to wait for the old man of the Gu family.
The old man of the Gu family has already given his respect, but His Majesty has granted permission to send someone to attend the important court meeting in advance. But most of the time, it's just a matter of going through the motions.
The children and grandchildren of the Gu family all stood up and grew up, and Old Man Gu stepped down to make room for his children and grandchildren.
Today, Old Man Gu heard about what happened in the early dynasty, and after sending someone to inquire about Gu Qingyan, he got his words, knowing that the queen was waiting outside the south study, and the emperor was gone, so he came.
The emperor can not see the empress, but he can't hang the old man Gu.
Old man Gu came to see His Majesty today, and he can be regarded as a famous teacher, after all, An Huajin is his future granddaughter-in-law, she was bullied by His Majesty's women, His Majesty obviously made a protective attitude, the old King Nanyang is not in the capital, he is the elder who can make her the master and be a backer.
With him coming out, His Majesty can't take the flowers lightly.
As soon as Gonggong Zhang saw Old Man Gu, he had a score in his heart, and hurriedly went in to say, "Your Majesty, Old Man Gu is here." ”
The emperor's face sank, and he didn't want to see him, but he also knew that he couldn't see anyone, and he couldn't see Old Man Gu, his identity was there, and if he didn't give him such a little face, then Old Man Gu would not give him face in turn, and the consequences of not seeing him were very serious.
So, the emperor was helpless, "Please come in, Old Man Gu." ”
Old Man Gu didn't rush into the south study, but greeted the queen, "The queen is well!" ”
"Gu Lao, your body is still so strong, this palace is relieved, my father is not in the capital, Xiao An'er's matter, I, as an aunt, can not do anything, I have to rely on you more when I am old." The queen was very happy to meet Old Man Gu.
Old Man Gu stroked his beard and smiled, "The child has been bullied, we as adults, we can't let her be wronged." It's too hot in the summer, let's go back to the palace. ”
It means that the emperor is here, and it is enough to hand it over to me.
The queen is also a persuasive person, since Old Man Gu is here, then, if she stays here, she will just add one more person. It's better for her to go back and think about it, and when His Majesty doesn't dare to see the flowers, hide her illness from the harem, and let her simply wither.
How can a flower be like jade? It's just a woman that His Majesty has been spoiled too much recently, and so many of them have dealt with her face!
So, the queen went back very obediently.
Old Man Gu entered the south study and saluted the emperor.
The emperor didn't dare to show his face to Old Man Gu, and waved his hand gently, "Old Man Gu is not polite, it's so hot, why did you enter the palace?" What's the matter, just let Huai'an say it. ”
After speaking, he instructed Father-in-law Zhang to give Old Man Gu a seat.
Old man Gu sat down and talked to the emperor, "Huai'an, that bastard boy, since His Majesty valued him and was promoted to the secretary of the ministry, I can't touch his figure every day, and I am busy like something. ”
When the emperor saw that he didn't open his mouth and said that Hua Ruyu was guilty, his heart was a lot more relaxed, and he said with a smile, "Young talents, those who can work harder, you should worry less." I see that he is doing a good job, with the demeanor of Gu Lao when he was young, and even better than the blue. Gu Lao taught well. ”
Old Man Gu smiled, "Your Majesty has won the award." ”
The two of you come and go, from Gu Qingyan's busy ministry of officials, to the appointment and dismissal assessment of the world's officials every three years in the golden autumn, and to the heavy rain a few days ago, where there was a flood, His Royal Highness of the Seventh Highness lived up to expectations, supervised the disaster relief, and was very effective, and did not let the disasters in various places outside Beijing give birth to a big mess, it can be seen that His Majesty's godson is good, and His Royal Highness the Seven is an example.
The emperor praised Gu Qingyan, and the old man Gu quietly praised the seventh prince and then praised the emperor, and after a while, the emperor's eyebrows and eyes disappeared, and most of the depression was dispersed.
Half an hour later, the old man Gu stopped talking and said with a smile, "When people are old, they want to hurry up and tease Sun, there is no old man in the capital and I have nothing to do, the old man imagines that His Majesty will ask for a will, go to Nanyang, and discuss the marriage of Huai'an and the little girl of the An family with the old prince, these two children, it is better to get married early, so that the old man and I can be down-to-earth." I think King Nanyang generally thinks the same way as me. ”
When the emperor heard this, he suddenly woke up from his dizziness.
