In the Wind Lotus Courtyard, Mu Biwei instructed to set aside a copy of the plum blossoms sent by Zhuo Heng and put them away, sent people away, and said to Ah Shan: "We had a lot of trouble yesterday, I thought that this time the people who took you into the palace to talk about things were just the same, I am afraid that the Queen Mother will also think that I am too rampant, I am afraid that I will ask Concubine Wen to come out of the round, but I didn't expect it to be in vain, Shunhua Niangniang and Gui Concubine Niangniang are good people!" ”

Ah Shan frowned and said: "Despite this, but Sun Guifei was already favored, and now she has a body, I am afraid that Your Majesty will return to Jique less, if the girl has a formal concubine position, we are not in a hurry, I am afraid that the He family, Ouyang and others will take advantage of His Majesty's thoughts to put on the New Year's Hall to attack the girl, they are above the position of concubines, and the status disparity here is always to be worried." ”

"In addition to Concubine Wen, Nie Linyi's eldest son and grandson are not fuel-efficient lamps." Mu Bi pursed her lips and smiled, and said leisurely, "He keeps calling me blessed, but I'm curious about what kind of blessing this is, and it's worth it for him to be convenient with me everywhere since I just entered the palace?" ”

"It stands to reason that Nie Linyi's character, even if the children and grandchildren who teach him are not as glorious as Nie Linyi himself, it is always not too much to be loyal to the monarch and be the same on the outside, but according to the girl, this Nie Yuansheng is far from his ancestors, and he can't be trusted." Ah Shan said, "It's better for the girl to be cautious." ”

Mu Bi said slightly: "It's this reason, but what can you do now?" I am a small Tsing Yi, if it weren't for His Majesty's favor, the huge palace, even such a small courtyard may not be able to live, if Your Majesty snubbed me because Sun Guifei was pregnant, what could I do? The He family gave Fang Xianren a meaning, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to even get out of the Jique Palace from now on! A sneer floated on her lips, "Nie Yuansheng is not hopeless, although I have only been in the palace for a few days, I also feel that this person is not simple, Ah Shan, you can find out that he is still a descendant of Nie Linyi, and it is even more strange if his temperament is like this, but then again, the character of today's son may not be the same as Emperor Gaozu, if Nie Yuansheng had learned the style of his ancestors, I am afraid that he would have been sent away from a distance like other companions, so as not to stay by his side and hinder His Majesty's eyes!" ”

Ah Shan sighed: "What kind of clear mind is Nie Linyi? He has been loyal to Emperor Gaozu all his life, even if his original wife does not give up when he is at the end of his life, he will never leave! I'd rather go against Emperor Gaozu's intentions than give up and marry the daughter of the Gaomen family! Listening to the old Taijun said, after the establishment of this dynasty, because Nie Linyi is talented and good-looking but his wife is vulgar, such as Qu, Gao and other famous families have moved the idea of marrying him, earlier the Gao family wanted to marry a side branch daughter to him, because he knew that Nie Linyi had refused Emperor Gaozu to persuade him to marry another, and at that time he said that he could take the position of a flat wife, and still keep the second son of Nayuan as a concubine, but Nie Linyi refused without even thinking about it, and the Gao family lost such a face, but even the Empress Dowager Gao couldn't say that Nie Linyi was bad, and could only sigh that his Yuan match was really fate- How can the eldest son and eldest grandson be the master of cooking? ”

Loyalty, infatuation and style, if it is said that there is Zidu in ancient times, Han Yan in Han, and Pan Anwei in Jin, then this dynasty is Nie Linyi. Not only is the so-called son-in-law like Nie Linyi, but even Emperor Ruizong also sighed that if his subordinates are like Nie Linyi, it is really a blessing for the king - even Ah Shan can't help but feel sorry for his ancestors in the face of Nie Linyi's descendants.

"It's this kind of master who has my way to live!" Mu Bi squinted slightly, and said lightly, "If he is a loyal and upright person like Nie Linyi, how can he care about the life and death of a mere harem female official?" I'm afraid he won't even say half a word of gossip to me, though he must have a plan to show favor to me now, and even charge twice as much as he gives me, but so what? It's better than just being trapped in a dead game, the old saying says that drinking a donkey quenches your thirst, it can be seen that people are in a hurry, and even the poison can be used as water to rescue, not to mention that when Nie Yuansheng and the lion open his mouth, I don't know what my situation is, maybe by then he will be powerless to control me? ”

Ah Shan pondered for a moment and said: "The slave maid thinks that Sun Guifei has a body, and the girl may not be completely out of life. ”

Mu Bi knew that she was astute, and hurriedly asked, "How did you say this?" ”

"Judging from what the girl has seen in the past few days since she entered the palace, it seems that the He family and Concubine Sun of the Qilan Palace are not very harmonious?" Ah Shan reminded.

Being so little by her, Mu Biwei suddenly came to her senses, clapped her hands and said, "Not bad!" On that day, the He family took advantage of His Majesty's absence in the Xuanshu Palace, and summoned me to Pingle Palace as Rong Hua, which invited the original Zhaoxun Ouyang clan to come forward and humiliate me! That Ouyang clan is proud of his background and posture is extremely high, and he will just serve a Zuo Zhaoyi in the palace when he looks like that! Not to mention that Sun Guifei invited His Majesty away that day to celebrate the so-called Xiao He Beauty's birthday, just look at the proximity of the He family and the Ouyang family, I'm afraid she is not from Sun Guifei's faction. ”

Ah Shan said: "Among the concubines in the palace, one is favored by the Queen Mother, such as Zuo Zhaoyi and Ouyang, and the other is what His Majesty likes, such as Sun Guifei." She smiled meaningfully, "Although Zuo Zhaoyi doesn't seem to be very favored......

Mu Biwei couldn't help but interrupt: "The rumors are true, but I don't think it may be credible, I saw Zuo Zhaoyi in the Chengguang Palace that day, and talked to Your Majesty very casually, even compared to Nie Yuansheng's attitude in front of Your Majesty, I think this Zuo Zhaoyi was able to gain a foothold in the palace is not all due to the support of the Queen Mother!" ”

"The girl was negligent herself!" Ah Shan said, "The attitude is casual, you think that Your Majesty even the Queen Mother's will was reversed for the sake of Sun Guifei, and even Zuo Zhaoyi entered the palace because the Queen Mother agreed to seal Sun as a noble concubine to let His Majesty relax, after entering the palace, there are not many servants, and there are no heirs, plus the palace and the palace all know that Your Majesty likes good colors, and Zuo Zhaoyi is an ordinary appearance, but Zuo Zhaoyi In addition to her appearance, her family background is royal and she does not dare to underestimate it, and the Queen Mother supports her, If she is a girl and is in Zuo Zhaoyi's position, will you still be afraid of Your Majesty? ”

"Naturally not!" Mu Biwei said without thinking, "No matter how good Zuo Zhaoyi is, she is not the kind that His Majesty likes, what she is good at is what His Majesty doesn't care about, the point that His Majesty attaches the most importance to, Zuo Zhaoyi is not biased, so he puts down his body to cater to His Majesty, and it is also difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, there is no hope of the emperor's favor left and right, it is better to be a little more generous, and bring out the posture of a famous family, don't pester Your Majesty too much, but will leave an informed impression in front of Your Majesty, In this way, you can also keep the last dignity in front of those favored concubines! ”

Saying this, Mu Biwei realized something, and sighed: "In the end, it is the daughter of the Qu family, I heard that she entered the palace is such a style, I think I thought it clearly from the beginning, I had to guess at the ridicule of the palace maid next to her outside the Chengguang Palace, but now it seems that Zuo Zhaoyi is a person who understands - she is the daughter of the Qu family, and there is the support of the Queen Mother above, and the person who has given the power of the six palaces by Yi Zhi is not the emperor's favor, as long as there is no big mistake, no one will want to cross the Hualuo Palace!" Since she doesn't have the moon and flower that His Majesty likes, it is easy to humiliate herself if she barely competes for favor, so it is better not to count on it, and she is a good student to be Zuo Zhaoyi, so Sun Guifei is not convinced, but she can't help her, no wonder she has such a casual attitude towards His Majesty...... There is a way that if you are thoughtless, you have no desire, and if you have no desire, Zuo Zhaoyi doesn't count on the emperor's favor anyway, as long as she doesn't go beyond the etiquette, she is naturally not restrained at all in front of Your Majesty! ”

She sighed and said, "I can't." ”

Ah Shan persuaded: "Isn't it stupid for a girl to compare herself with Zuo Zhaoyi?" Zuo Zhaoyi seems to be at ease like this, why can't he be forced to do it? If you can, who in this world doesn't want to raise eyebrows and beauty with her husband, she doesn't want to think about the blessings of Nie Linyi's wife, just like ordinary people are happy with each other is a serious day! Zuo Zhaoyi is undoubtedly like this, so she is ready to stay in this deep palace for the rest of her life! Youth is thrown in such an empty space, if Zuo Zhaoyi can choose, she would have known that entering the palace is such a result, and the slave maid bets that she will definitely be willing to marry a child of the right family like her sister Princess Guangling or not as good as Princess Guangling, even if she also meets a greedy and lustful person, but today except for the Son of Heaven, who dares to snub the daughter of the Qu family like this? ”

He said, "Moreover, now that Sun Guifei is pregnant, this will not know men and women, with Sun Guifei's favor, if she gives birth to a prince, Jiang Shunhua will have a pregnancy letter in front of her, but the girl also said, where can Jiang Shunhua's favor be compared with Sun Guifei?" Whether the Guiluo Palace can be empty next year and who lives in it, I am afraid that the Queen Mother may not be able to say! ”

Mu Bi said slightly: "I just think that the previous estimate of Zuo Zhaoyi has gone away, how can I really envy her?" If you want to say that envy is also envy of their Qu family, Ding Xingwang's heirs are prosperous, that is, she is not favored at all, looking at the Qu family's family, Your Majesty will go to her more or less, and she will not be like the previous Fan Shiwomen's princess, once she loses His Majesty's favor, she will be trampled into the mud! ”

Ah Shan saw that she really didn't mean to learn Zuo Zhaoyi, so she was relieved, and didn't forget to continue to chant a few words: "Zuo Zhaoyi doesn't compete for favor, except that she knows that her posture is not in the eyes of His Majesty, and there are also reasons for the Qu family in it, the girl can not look at the Queen Mother now that the Queen Mother protects Zuo Zhaoyi everywhere, this is also His Majesty's too little to give Zuo Zhaoyi face, if Zuo Zhaoyi has the favor of Sun Guifei today, the girl will look at it, and then the Queen Mother will definitely press her again - Qu Gao is flush in this dynasty, but in fact, the Qu family is faintly better than the Gao family, The Qu family doesn't talk about the queen mother in this dynasty, and there is not even a concubine! And the first emperor has chosen a daughter of the Qu family as his second daughter-in-law, but the queen mother still has to give up the position of queen to the Gao family and the Qu family, please think about it for the sake of the girl! ”

Mu Bi frowned slightly, she has a tacit understanding with Ah Shan, and her nature is also extremely alert, now that Ah Shan mentioned it, she immediately understood: "The Queen Mother originally wanted Zuo Zhaoyi to be the queen because she was sure that she was not favored by His Majesty?" ”

"There is a way to know the son Mo Ruomu, although Your Majesty did not grow up with the Empress Dowager Gao, but it was the Empress Dowager Gao who was conceived in October, where would you not know what kind of person Your Majesty likes?" Ah Shan said, "Besides, Your Majesty himself is handsome and tall, although the slave has never seen Zuo Zhaoyi, but since the girl said that she is a mediocre-looking person, since ancient times, it has been said that the husband and wife who are matched are all talented and beautiful, where is the reason for the reversal?" The royal family of this dynasty is all excellent, and His Majesty is one of the best, not to mention the mediocre appearance, the slave maid peeked at His Majesty when she faced the saint yesterday, and that kind of demeanor - it is an ordinary few points of posture that are overshadowed by the side of the station, if Emperor Gaozu is still there, it will definitely not choose Qu as the queen! ”

"Although Emperor Gaozu is talented, he is also a little judged by his appearance." Mu Bi pursed her lips slightly and smiled, "The founding ministers Nie Linyi, Qu Yan, and Gao Shangyuan, in addition to their talents, which one is not outstanding?" I heard that His Majesty was also raised by Emperor Gaozu himself because his appearance was particularly outstanding in the royal family! ”

A Shan said: "Emperor Gaozu has a long life, the first emperor Ruizong ascended the throne when he was close to the age of not confused, His Majesty is to succeed to the throne with a young son, so far has not tasted the crown, now although the founding ministers of the court have withered, but such as the left and right prime ministers, the old ministers are all people who have experienced the first emperor and the king of Jiqu to compete for the prince, all of them have been in politics for many years, extremely old and spicy, and although the remnants of the king of Jiqu are removed, but after the first emperor ascended the throne, several of the kings who depreciated Yedu are still in the prime of life, the former emperor is still there, and he does not put them in his eyes, but His Majesty is young, Empress Dowager Gao has a motherly heart, and it is also for the sake of the royal family, she always chooses the daughter of a famous family for Her Majesty, thinking that Her Majesty will help! The family is headed by Qu and Gao, the Empress Dowager Gao herself was born in the Gao family, and the Gao family has normally stood on His Majesty's side, so it is not surprising that the queen is from the Qu family, and the best reputation of the Qu family is now the Changfang Wei Libo, but Zuo Zhaoyi and His Majesty are generally young daughters, if you want to say that the queen is a candidate, the Qu family is enough to enter the middle palace is not without the concubine in the room next to it, the queen mother chose the sister of the princess Guangling's compatriots, one is because the queen mother hopes that the brothers are harmonious and close, and the other is probably because Zuo Zhaoyi looks mediocre, Even if she is the queen, she can't get the favor of His Majesty, so the daughter of the Qu family not only has to rely on the queen mother, but the Qu family also wants to completely overpower the Gao family by relying on the identity of the descendants! But even if the Qu family is still only Zuo Zhaoyi now, the Empress Dowager Gao's support is clearly placed there, and the Qu family can't help but not stand on His Majesty's side! ”

Speaking of this, Ah Shan sighed and said, "Where is the old minister of the previous dynasty who accompanied the first emperor through the affairs of Pang Guifei and King Jiqu?" Isn't Empress Dowager Gao too? Although the queen mother has never made achievements in political affairs, it is impossible not to figure out the general truth! It's only been a few days since the girl entered the palace, Jiang Shunhua and Sun Guifei have sent out pregnancy letters, and now the queen mother is afraid that she has no time to pay attention to the girl, otherwise, the slave doesn't know what the queen mother will do to the girl! ”

Mu Biwei listened, and she didn't feel secretly frightened.
