Chapter 173: The Queen Tells a Story
Concubine Jia deliberately emphasized the word heir, and she often came to the queen's palace recently, but she was blocked from waiting outside more than once because the queen mother was worshipping the Bodhisattva.
What else can the women in the palace ask for when they worship the Bodhisattva, it is nothing more than an heir, and the reason why she said this is just to give the queen a wake-up call.
The emperor stays in Wenhua Palace every day like this, if she really has it one day, with the emperor's favor for Yu Qing, the queen's status is in jeopardy.
"But no, there is such an eldest son of the emperor in our palace, and he is still raised under her knees, if she wants to have another son, what hope do we have."
Concubine Qi has always been a brainless person, she speaks straightforwardly, and she has helped Concubine Jia in one sentence, although she doesn't like it, but she is telling the truth, and she really hits the queen's heart.
The queen clenched the silk handkerchief, her nails digging into the flesh, and her brow furrowed.
Concubine Jia, Concubine Qi is right, although Feng Jingyuan is not Yuqing's biological child, he can be raised in the palace since he made a sound, and it is better if he is not his own child.
If she gets another one, not to mention the prince, even if she is a princess, the emperor will probably promote her to a concubine, and she has both children and daughters, and Yu Qing's status in the palace can be said to be as stable as Mount Tai.
Once a person reaches a high position, he will want more, and his desires and greed are endless.
If Yuqing really covets her queenship, I'm afraid that no one can pull her off the horse at that time.
She has to think carefully about how to fight against such a strong enemy, but now is not the time for her to make a move, where are the unconscious people in front of her, who are coming to her to complain, obviously wanting to use her as a gunman.
That Concubine Jia is also, except for getting up in the morning to say goodbye, she never went to her palace, and she really bowed down for her once pleaded, she didn't believe it.
Now a vigorous pouting is a good proof, looking at himself is a fool, the emperor is now full of holy will, and he has come out to deal with Yu Qing?
There must be no good fruit to eat, and if the emperor dislikes it, it will really outweigh the losses.
The queen sorted out her mood, her brows stretched, and she said without saltiness or lightness, "If the noble people can spread the branches and leaves for the royal family, it is naturally good to extend the heirs, and it can be regarded as a credit." ”
After saying that, the room full of people looked at her in surprise, the queen snorted coldly in her heart, but said with a smile on her face: "The emperor's side of the palace will go to persuade her, but it depends on the emperor's intentions."
Okay, let's not talk about that, sisters, I'll tell you something new.
At the beginning of spring, there is a nest of swallows on the beam outside the main house of the main house, and one of the small ones is crowded in front every time the mother swallow feeds, so that the other few are not full every time, or even cannot eat at all.
One day the female swallow went to forage for food again, who knew that the one who often ate alone was actually squeezed out of the nest and fell to death, isn't it, Tinglan. ”
When Ting Lan received the queen's eyes, she immediately understood, and then said: "No, after Xiao Yan'er's death, Mu Yan came back without noticing.
Feeding as usual, the other few were assigned to the insects, and the slave maid happened to be standing outside the corridor to guard the mother's nap, and after the mother woke up, she told the mother as a joke. ”
After telling the story, several people in the audience looked different, some were ignorant, some did not know what to do, some lowered their eyes and pondered, and of course, there were also those who did not have the heart to listen to the story seriously, such as Qi Concubine.
"The queen is also kind-hearted, so she let the swallow build a nest under the corridor, if it was a concubine, she would have sent someone to send it away."
Concubine Qi had no heart or lungs, she just thought that the queen really had fun for no reason.
The queen's expression was stagnant, resisting the urge to roll her eyes, secretly scolding Concubine Qi for being useless, ignoring her, and smiling at the others: "Okay, the hour is not early, let's go back, the palace is lacking." ”
"The concubine retired." Several people got up, knelt down in unison, and exited the door.
Lan Chang was walking with the noble Shun, and asked with a puzzled face: "Eh, sister, what do you mean by the queen, do you want to help us persuade the emperor?" ”
Shun nobles actually beat the drum in their hearts, and the queen's words were ambiguous, who knows what it means.
didn't want to lose face in front of Lan Changzai, so he didn't know how to pretend to understand: "Oh, didn't the queen mother just say that she would go back and persuade the emperor." ”
"But the queen also said that it still depends on the emperor's own meaning."
If according to the emperor's intentions, isn't it obvious now, the emperor is willing to stay in Wenhua Palace, which is not the same as not saying.
Shun Guiren was choked and speechless, as if it was indeed such a truth, but as soon as he exited, he was immediately disfaced, and he said with confidence: "What do you want to do so much, the queen has no way to do it, what can we do?" ”
"We're here for nothing today." Lan Changzai nodded and said.
Concubine Jia and Concubine Qi walked behind and listened to the conversation between the two clearly.
Concubine Jia smiled sarcastically, and said sarcastically: "With your brain, it is better to go to Changyin Pavilion to listen to the long knowledge of the two excerpts, but don't be embarrassed in the queen's palace." ”
Because Concubine Jia has a high position, no matter how ruthless the reprimand, the two dare not contradict each other, but they still have some temper.
Shun Guiren respectfully blessed Gu Fu, "Concubine Jia's lesson is that Lan Chang is here, I want to go to Changyin Pavilion to listen to the play, along?" ”
Lan Chang pursed his lips and smiled, "Okay, it's okay to go back anyway." "Is it possible to wait for the emperor.
Looking at the back of the two of them leaving, Concubine Jia was angry, she had been grounded for so long, she finally let it out, and wanted to play majestic in front of the concubines of status, but no one answered.
"Listening to Concubine Jia's meaning, does the queen's words have another meaning?"
Concubine Qi is not stupid, she still doesn't know how to look at her face, and asking Concubine Jia a question at this time is not to go up to the pole to find scolding.
"You might as well go to the theater with them!"
Concubine Jia glanced at Concubine Qi fiercely, and walked away as fast as the wind at the bottom of the three-inch-high flower pot.
If I continue to talk to Concubine Qi, I am afraid that she will really be angry to death, and I really can't count on her, so she has to go out in person.
If you can really get rid of the stumbling block of Yuqing, Concubine Zhen's secret can also be kept.
can still get face in front of the queen, and maybe you can regain the emperor's love, which is really a lot of benefits, and there is no harm.
Whether the queen's story is true or not, there is only one thing to say, it is nothing more than squeezing out those who eat alone, and others will have food.
Seeing that the queen won't make a move, those incompetent people didn't even understand the story, let alone think about anything else, looking for their help, it must be more than enough to succeed.
At this time, Concubine Jia thought of the noble man again, and she used to be able to give advice by her side.
Now she actually took refuge in Yuqing's little slut, and let her keep a princess, and she was deeply favored by the emperor, and she could see the emperor occasionally, which was really embarrassing.
Now, she had to go back and plan her way.
One day, the little eunuch guarding the door in Wenhua Palace saw Xiyue coming out of the main house, and hurriedly ran over and called Xiyue, "Aunt Xiyue!" ”
"What?" Xiyue stopped, it seemed that the person was Xiao Dezi, and asked.
"Aunt Xiyue, Chunlan has always been running out these days, and it will be an hour when she goes out."
Xiao Dezi looked around, saw that no one was paying attention, and quietly reported to Xiyue the situation he had observed in the past few days.
Chunlan was not the little master's personal maid, and she did some rough work, and she didn't hear that she was assigned any tasks that could only be done when she left the palace.
"Oh, okay, I got it." Xiyue sneered, the little master was not sure how happy he was, and it was estimated that he would be happy.
"Is something wrong, but what did Chunlan do to be sorry for the little master, do you want the slave to bring someone over and tie her up?"
Xiao Dezi is used to observing words and feelings, and he is very cautious, and he knows that he is very displeased with Chunlan's behavior by looking at Xiyue's expression, and he seems to have known it for a long time.
"Knowing that you are a loyal person, you don't have to worry about this matter, just do it as usual, leave her alone, and don't show anything abnormal." Xiyue commanded.
"Gotcha!" Xiao Dezi responded quickly, didn't ask, and continued to go back to guard the door.
Xiyue was originally going to the small kitchen to order the preparation of meals, but she was not in a hurry anyway, but now that she had something more important, she hurriedly reported to Yu Qing, and then turned around and entered the main house.
"Little Lord."
When Xiyue entered the door, she saw Yu Qing sitting in front of the dressing table, walked over and found the white hosta that Yu Qing wanted to help her pin behind her head.
Yu Qing does not like cumbersome decorations, and this white hosta is the most commonly bringed.
"Why did you just go out and come back?"
Just now Xiyue helped her comb her hair, she couldn't help but be hungry, so she asked Xiyue to tell the small kitchen to get some food, and it was only ten seconds before and after, and it was estimated that she would turn back when she reached the door.
"The little Dezi who guarded the door told the slave maid that he saw Chunlan go out early in the morning and come back an hour later, and it has been like this for several days in a row."
Xiyue looked at Yu Qing in the mirror and said.
Yu Qing raised her eyebrows, she was interested, and finally there was movement, and she almost thought that Concubine Jia had given up targeting her.
"Go and ask the nobles to come over." Since Concubine Jia is going to act, they must also prepare early.
As soon as the Wen nobles heard Xiyue say the reason, it didn't take long for them to arrive at Wenhua Palace.
"What, Concubine Jia is planning to attack you?" Wen Guiren hurriedly came, didn't even bother to drink tea, and went straight to the point.
"Sister Wen, don't worry, take a sip of tea, Xiyue." Yu Qing sneered, saw that the noble man was in a hurry, and instructed Xiyue to pour a cup of tea and hand it over.
Wen Guiren took a sip and hurriedly asked: "You said, don't you make me anxious in vain?" ”
"Good sister, I just got the letter, I don't dare to confirm it." Yu Qing begged for mercy and smiled mischievously, "I just said that she went out for an hour every day, and I didn't know where she was going, let alone who she was seeing." ”
"That's right!" Wen Guiren said categorically.
A little palace maid, without the master's orders, what other big things can she have to go out every day, it should be her serious affairs in Wenhua Palace.
can go out for so long, not every day to pass on news, plot to kill people, what else can it be.
"What does my sister think?"
Yu Qing thought the same thing, there was no need to hesitate about this kind of thing, but now they had to think of a countermeasure, so they specially asked Xiyue to invite Wen Guiren to discuss.
"The left is just trying to harm you, and you can't prevent it if you don't know the root cause."
Wen Guiren frowned, now Concubine Jia is in the dark, they are in the light, waiting for others to make a move, after all, they are passive.
