Not only did the noble concubine laugh non-stop, but even Lan Ying on the side was amused by Nangong Shuangshuang's words and covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and her shoulders shook while laughing.

Nangong Shuangshuang was speechless and watched the two of them laughing, I don't know why the laughter of these two people is so low, it is easy to laugh enough, and the noble concubine said to Nangong Shuangshuang: "Okay, you continue to talk about donating money to the emperor, what should you do to make the emperor happy." ”

Nangong Shuangshuang smiled lightly, "Niangniang, you are teasing the slave maid, a smart person like you, since you have listened to the slave maid's analysis, how can you not know what to do." ”

The noble concubine chuckled lightly and said to Lan Ying on the side: "Go and take out all the silver that has been saved in this palace over the years, and this palace will use it later." ”

In the imperial study, after reviewing today's recital, the emperor sighed with low interest, sat on the dragon chair, did not move for a long time, Song Lin waited on the side and did not dare to come out, he knew what the emperor was worried about.

The disaster was strapped in a larger area than expected, the national treasury had to allocate more relief funds than expected, the national treasury was empty, and this year's tax revenue was barely balanced.

The emperor is reluctant to enter the harem at this time, because there are always concubines who want to share the emperor's worries, but the result is just a disservice, a piece of kindness and public opinion in the previous dynasty, the emperor is not easy to say that the harem concubines should not do this kind of thing again.

If he didn't know that the harem concubines really wanted to please the emperor, and no one was stupid enough to offend the emperor, Song Lin would have suspected that these ladies in the harem were joining forces to find the emperor unhappy.

However, every time the emperor provides disaster relief, he has to donate money to the ministers of the court, and he can't say that he doesn't want the concubines to donate money anymore, and the emperor can't say it, and he, a slave, can't open his mouth to remind these ladies in the harem, so it also points to when these ladies will be able to understand by themselves.

It's a pity that after so many years, no lady has understood the emperor's true thoughts, and today seeing the emperor's appearance of not wanting to enter the harem for a long time, Song Lin feels troubled for the emperor.

Today is the first day of the new year, no matter how much you don't want to enter the harem, in the palace of the queen's mother, the emperor must go, this is the honor that the mother of a country must have, the emperor is still very fond of the queen, and naturally will not let the queen lose face in front of the harem.

Therefore, after doing it on the throne for a while, the emperor still patted the armrest of the dragon chair, stood up and walked out of the imperial study. ”

Fengchen Palace is located in the middle of the palace, just behind the imperial study where the emperor usually discusses and works, it can be said that Fengchen Palace is the closest location to the emperor, so the emperor did not walk a few steps on the imperial chariot, and arrived at the door of Fengchen Palace.

The queen is a very gentle woman, her beauty is full of a soft sense of tolerance, her temperament is just like her appearance, gentle and tolerant, and she is more lenient and less stern to the harem.

But if you think that the queen is easy to bully and can climb on the queen's head, it would be wrong, although the queen is soft, she is not without thunder means.

There used to be a favorite concubine that the emperor liked very much, that favorite concubine was really favored, and she was favored for three years after entering the palace, and in just three years, she was not pregnant, so she was promoted from the most slight change of clothes to Jieyu from the second grade, and the emperor also intended to promote her to the second concubine in the next year.

This one was able to hold it at first, but as a result, she gradually became domineering after three years of favor, and at first she just didn't put the concubine in her eyes, and she was humiliated from time to time, and then even the queen began to despise her.

At the queen's birthday banquet, because the queen's palace maid soiled her clothes, she directly ordered the eunuchs around her to strangle the queen's personal palace maid.

Killing people at the queen's birthday banquet, and killing the queen's personal palace maid, this is not a matter of killing a minion, this is a matter of pumping more than a dozen big mouths on the queen's face anyway!

The queen was furious, and denounced the favorite concubine as a waste concubine on the spot, and sent a Taoist temple outside the palace to pray for blessings, that Jieyu thought that the emperor must be facing her, crying and shouting to see the emperor, but after the emperor knew about it, he didn't even see him, and directly let people cut off her tongue, punish her for being disrespectful to the queen, and then immediately drove out of the palace and sent to the Taoist temple.

After this incident, the queen's position in the harem has not been shaken, no matter which concubine is favored, no one dares to challenge the majesty of the queen again.

And the reason why the queen dared to deal with the emperor's favorite concubine so boldly was not so much that the queen felt that the emperor would not blame her for having deep feelings for her, but that the queen understood the emperor and knew that although the emperor liked to spoil women, he was cold by nature, and he regarded the system and the stability of the court as much more important than women.

The queen dares to do this, one is that her grandfather is a product of the dynasty, the emperor has a lot of dependence, and the background is strong enough, and the other is that the favorite concubine is not only favored by the emperor, but she is from a humble mother's family, even if she kills the previous dynasty, no one will give this concubine a grievance.

The third one is the emperor's fancy for the system and his coldness for his own women, which shows that the queen is a woman who is smart enough and will never put her mind on the emperor, otherwise she will not see the emperor's cold nature so clearly in the bureau.

The queen's wisdom is also reflected in getting along with the emperor, the queen, as the mother of a country, is naturally a knowledgeable person, but she has never wanted to become the emperor's interpretation flower and meddle in the emperor's court affairs.

The way the queen gets along with the emperor is silent gentleness and omnipresent tolerance, so that the emperor can get the greatest peace in her, so although the queen is not in good health and has no children under her knees, she has always been favored, and her status is unbreakable.

Just like at this moment, although the emperor was upset, but when he saw the queen dressed in a soft dress and came to the door to greet him, his mood was still relaxed, and he hurriedly walked a few steps to the queen and helped the queen up, "Didn't you say that you don't always come here at the door to greet me, the queen is always so polite." ”

The queen smiled softly, obediently held the emperor's hand, and her voice was gentle, "Your Majesty, although you are generous, but the etiquette cannot be abolished, the concubine is the queen, if she takes the lead in not abiding by the palace rules, won't she set a bad example for the concubines and minions below." ”

The emperor chuckled and shook his head, and pulled the queen slowly towards the main hall, "The queen is always so thoughtful, and I am fortunate to have a good wife like the queen." ”

"Your Majesty, the concubines just did their part, and they can't afford to be so praised by the emperor." The queen and the emperor walked hand in hand, smiling.

The food has been placed in the house, and the emperor will accompany the queen to eat every time he comes here, so the queen will prepare a meal in advance on the fifteenth day of the new year, waiting to eat with the emperor.
