Thinking about it this way, Yu Qing is not so uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty, you can chirp."

"Ridiculous!"

"Oh, it's going to taste better, you can try it." Yu Qing said with a wink.

"Bah."

"Hahaha......"

Xue Gui was outside the gate of the Qinzheng Palace, listening to the laughter of the Qing nobles and the occasional angry reprimand from the emperor, he exhaled and said to Xiyue: "Sure enough, the Qing nobles have the ability, and the old slave didn't invite the wrong person." ”

Xiyue didn't know what was going on inside, and when she heard Gonggong Xue say this, her heart was settled, it seemed that the little lord was persuading the emperor.

After another half pillar of incense, the door of the Qinzheng Hall opened, and Yu Qing walked out with an empty food box.

"Qing noble, emperor?" Xue Gui asked.

"Sleep." Yu Qing shook the food box in her hand.

Xue Gui smiled and couldn't see his eyebrows, "Hey, it's done, the slave thanked the noble people." ”

He remembered the snacks that Yu Qing made in the small kitchen, which looked very ordinary, but they were all good ingredients for relieving stress and helping him sleep.

"Grandpa Xue owes me a big favor." Yu Qing laughed.

"This is natural, if you have any orders in the future, just find a slave." Xue Gui agreed, with the emperor's attitude towards Qing Guiren, it was too late for him to stammer.

Yu Qing Xiyue returned to Wenhua Palace, and Xue Gui still stayed outside the palace until two hours later, when the emperor's summons came from the palace, "Xue Gui." ”

Xue Gui went in, and saw that the emperor had just gotten up from the couch, and hurriedly went over to serve the emperor to dress, and couldn't hold back a smile in his mouth, "Did the emperor sleep well?" ”

The emperor asked him to help him lift his boots, glanced at Xue Gui, tapped the brim of his hat with his fingers, and said, "Hmph, your errand is getting better and better." ”

Having said that, without the slightest sense of blame, Xue Gui smiled slyly and said cheekily: "Thank you for your praise." ”

From that day on, the emperor still often went to Wenhua Palace, and the news of the return of the Qing nobles spread all over the harem in an instant, and everyone even felt that the emperor's favor for the Qing nobles was faintly better than before.

Concubine Hua couldn't believe that she really persuaded the emperor that day, especially when she had just left the gate of the Qinzheng Palace with her front foot, and she returned in vain, she went in with her back foot, which was undoubtedly a slap in the face.

Concubine Hua kept cursing Yu Qing in the palace, and it was difficult to dissipate her anger, and viciously put her mind on the upcoming 100-day ceremony of the little prince.

"Niangniang, I'm afraid this matter is inappropriate." Yuzhi said worriedly after hearing this.

The little prince's 100-day banquet has a large number of people, and the guards are more tight, if it is found that he is plotting to kill the emperor's heir, I am afraid that it will be difficult to make a comeback.

"Are you stupid for this palace? Do it yourself? ”

If it is successful, the little prince can be successfully eliminated, and Yuqing has no barrier of protection, so she is not allowed to kill. If the matter is revealed, it will not be found on her head, and someone will convict her.

"Isn't there still Concubine Jia......" Concubine Hua smiled.

"Yes, the mother is scheming, and the slave is ashamed." After hearing this, Yuzhi covered her mouth and smiled treacherously, complimentingly.

The day before the start of the 100-day ceremony, Yu Qing ordered Xiyue to carefully check her clothes and various necessities on the same night, so as not to have the last birthday banquet of Concubine Jia.

He also sent someone to the Taihe Hall to check the ornaments there, and learned that the emperor had already sent someone to carefully inspect it, and there was no abnormality.

But Yu Qing was worried in her heart, something bad would definitely happen.

It's not that she's worrying about nothing, but it's about the little prince, and she has such a few powerful enemies, she can't figure out who will do it behind her back now.

Therefore, she should try to be as careful as possible where she can notice, and would rather be in vain than indulge.

Early in the morning of the second day, the concubines of the palace got up to bathe and change their clothes, and took the prepared gifts to the outside of the Taihe Palace to wait for the arrival of the emperor.

After a while, everyone saw a group of three people coming over in the distance, the emperor was in the middle, the queen mother was on the right, and the one on the left was actually holding the little prince.

Everyone was surprised, and after thinking about it, they felt reasonable, after all, this is the birthday ceremony of the little prince, the little prince died in childbirth, and now she is raised in the palace of the Qing nobles.

When the three of them approached, the palace people sang and entered the main hall, and the 100-day ceremony began, and everyone came back to their senses from their own conjectures.

Yu Qing looked up at the center of the main hall, and sure enough, as Xue Gui said, he enshrined a statue of Sakyamuni.

The Buddha statue sits on top of a blooming lotus flower, sitting cross-legged, with its feet upward, its left palm spread over its knees, and its right palm on its chest.

Rao is a person who does not believe in gods and Buddhas, and he also feels the solemnity of the Buddha statue.

Just about to pay homage to the ancestors, the eunuch announced outside the door: "The queen mother has arrived!" ”

Even the emperor didn't expect that the queen mother actually came to participate in the 100-day ceremony of the little prince, and hurriedly got up to greet her.

"Queen Mother, why are you here?"

"You are such a prince, a hundred days ceremony, how can the mourning family not come." The Queen Mother's voice was low and hoarse, revealing an obvious old state.

It's not the first time Yu Qing has seen the Queen Mother, but it's the first time she has met her so closely, just through the emperor, she can clearly see the wrinkles on the Queen Mother's face.

Yu Qing couldn't help but think of the day when Concubine Shen was at Concubine Shen, the Queen Mother's fierce words were like two people who were majestic but kind to the Queen Mother in front of her.

Sure enough, the harem is the best place to hone your acting skills, if this is left in modern times, a proper actress-level character.

After thinking about it, I still feel that Concubine Shen is kind and close, and the most important thing is that she is as beautiful as a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world.

"Sunny nobleman!" The emperor saw that Yu Qing could be distracted when he was standing, his voice was stern, and he said, "The queen mother wants to see the little prince." ”

"Yes." Yu Qing came back to his senses, and he blamed himself in frustration, when did he dare to be imaginative.

took a few steps forward, held the little prince slightly elevated, and sent it to the queen mother's eyes, so that she could see it clearly.

Yu Qing wants to tell the emperor, do you know that your biological mother was imprisoned by this person in a remote palace where no one cares, humiliated every day, and lived a life that was worse than death.

If it weren't for thinking of your son, she wouldn't have known how many times she would have died.

But now is not the time, the queen mother's power is huge, the last time I listened to her, the former dynasty and the harem were involved, and there seemed to be many people in the court, I don't know if the emperor was aware of it.

"Good! The emperor and grandson of the mourning family are well raised, and they look like the emperor between their eyebrows and eyes. The Queen Mother praised.

While Yu Qing looked at the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother was also looking at Yu Qing. This is the noble man in the harem who is rumored to be favored by the emperor?

Sure enough, there is a bit of beauty, but to survive in the palace, you can't live long just by relying on beauty, so I don't know what this noble man means.

It's just that I heard Concubine Hua say that she is quite sharp-tongued, and the person who can make Concubine Hua say this seems to have some ability.

At this time, the Queen Mother didn't know that Yu Qing was the little palace maid of the Huanyi Bureau who she was going to send someone to assassinate to visit Concubine Shen.

"It's been a long time since the mourning family attended such a grand banquet, and it's been a long time since I've been to the Taihe Palace." The Queen Mother's affection seemed to have a memory, and after only a moment, she continued: "Quick, go on, don't delay the auspicious time because of the old woman of the mourning family, it's not good." ”

"Yes, Queen Mother." The emperor should go down and order the palace people to continue.

It shows that worshipping the ancestors, hesitating the queen mother to participate, and each process regulation is much slower.

The Queen Mother seems to have a lot of memories, every time she experiences a place, she has to be distracted for a long time, and no one dares to disturb her, so she can only pull the banquet process very slowly, and she has to worry about whether it is a dinner party, which will be placed until tomorrow.

Fortunately, the Queen Mother just worships the ancestors, and there are more memories here, and the prayer is much more serious at the beginning.

Naturally, the young and the old are orderly, and there is a difference between respect and inferiority. Worship and pray for the Queen Mother is the first to be the first, "May the Buddha bless the country and the people, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the emperor governs well, and bless the emperor and grandson of the mourning family, Amitabha." ”

The Queen Mother held three pillars of incense in her hand, leaned over and bowed three times, and inserted the incense into the incense burner.

The second is the emperor, the emperor moved much faster, Xu has been waiting for a long time, and he is not willing to delay for a second longer.

The first two were safe and sound, and when they arrived at the queen, the situation that Yu Qing was worried about finally happened.

The queen took the three incense sticks that had been lit by the palace people a long time ago, and knelt on the ground to pray.

"Xinzi sincerely prays that the Buddha blesses the queen mother and the emperor in good health, the little prince is healthy and worry-free, and the harem concubines are mostly for the emperor, Amitabha."

Everything was normal so far, but when the queen leaned over to worship the Buddha, the incense pillar broke from it, fell to the ground, and fell to pieces.

The moment the incense pillar broke, the queen's heart was about to jump out, and when praying to worship the Buddha, the most taboo thing was to break the incense.

If the incense pillar is broken, it means that your desire to seek the Buddha is not successful, and the Buddha can't stand it anymore and does not accept your incense offerings, so he deliberately breaks it.

The concubines in the distance couldn't see what was happening, but the few people in the distance couldn't help but gasp when they saw this scene, worried about the queen's mother.

The queen pretended to be calm, took the newly lit incense pillar from the palace people, recited the prayer just now, and was cautious when leaning over, and did not dare to hold her hand too tightly, for fear that the incense pillar itself would be fine, but would be pinched off by herself.

But what should have happened still happened, the incense pillar was still broken when the queen mother worshipped the Buddha, and even the concubines in the distance found the abnormality, whispered to each other, and slowly rioted.

"Your Majesty, concubines......" The queen didn't believe that things were so coincidental, someone must have done it on purpose, but who was this person, and he wanted to harm himself at such an important moment.

"The queen is not sincere, she shouldn't come today, and the queen won't bother to participate in the next, go back to the palace and rest." The emperor said indifferently.

In fact, Yu Qing understands the emperor's reaction very well, this world is in a feudal dynasty, and he is convinced of the theory of gods and Buddhas, so he is naturally taboo.

What's more, the emperor attaches so much importance to the little prince, naturally he can't tolerate even a little accident, and the people who set up the bureau also rely on this to dare to blatantly do things on the incense pillar, in order to have zero tolerance from the emperor and uproot the people who want to get rid of them.

The queen looked at the emperor, her eyes were full of helplessness and grievances, "The concubine is really sincere to the Buddha, praying for the queen mother, for the emperor and the little prince, the emperor must believe in the concubine." ”

The emperor's face was gloomy, and he was not moved by the queen's tears.
