Thinking about it, Shang Kelan deliberately showed a gloating smile.

Concubine Hua's face turned red, and she was ashamed and indignant in her heart, but she didn't know if this was true or not.

I feel that Shang Kelan's every word is asking her to drill into the sleeve, say more and make more mistakes, just ignore her!

Thinking about it, Concubine Hua snorted coldly at Shang Kelan, and turned her head away from looking at her.

Shang Kelan took a sip of tea in a good time, and did not take Concubine Hua in her eyes.

As the daughter of Zhengyipin Zuoxiang, the only imperial concubine of the Great Zhou Emperor, she is more qualified to be arrogant than anyone else.

She already knew about Concubine Hua and Concubine Ning framing her, but she chose to keep her mouth shut, just to give Governor Li behind Concubine Hua a face. If it weren't for the usefulness of Governor Li to Jin Yantang, the last Concubine Ning incident, Concubine Hua would have accompanied Concubine Ning to the cold palace to live a good life!

The rest of the concubines silently looked at Shang Kelan and Concubine Hua's words, and secretly swallowed their saliva, and turned to Shang Kelan's attitude to be more flattering and respectful.

About a stick of incense, the queen mother, who was wearing a black gold thread trim and embroidered nine phoenix animal patterns, walked out.

"The Queen Mother has arrived!"

With the announcement of the chamberlain, all the palace concubines knelt down and saluted: "The concubines see the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is a thousand years old!" ”

"It's all polite, sit down, the mourning family has something to say."

After everyone sat down, the Queen Mother sat on the main seat.

Shang Kelan raised her eyes and inadvertently glanced at the Queen Mother, but found that the Queen Mother was dressed extremely formally today, and her expression was also very majestic.

The girl in red standing next to her was Zhao Kehan.

My Fair Beauty, with jewelry, makes people feel admired when they look at it from afar!

Like the Queen Mother, today's Zhao Kehan is also dressed very brightly, and his expression is no longer cowardly when he first met, but with a confident smile.

Ordinary people showing such a smile will only make people feel disgusted, but Zhao Kehan smiled, but it made everyone feel that she was born to laugh so proud and beautiful.

When he first met, Zhao Kehan hid his edge; Today, Zhao Kehan's extravagance is revealed, and he is no longer clumsy at all.

After everyone quieted down, the Queen Mother glanced at the people around her, and announced in a deep voice: "At noon today, the mourning family set up a lotus banquet in the pavilion next to the lotus pond in the imperial garden. ”

As soon as these words came out, the concubines changed their complexions when they heard it.

Who of them is not from a noble family or a noble family?

Although Zhao Kehan is the princess of the previous dynasty, but now she is just a commoner, why does the queen mother still spoil her so much?

There was silence in the air for a while, but the queen smiled and said: "Today, on the second day of the seventh month, it is a good day for the lotus to bloom the last stubble. ”

Shang Kelan also smiled and said: "The concubine already had the intention of rewarding the lotus, but I didn't expect Miss Zhao and the concubine to think of going together, which saved the concubine some preparations." ”

The highest-ranking queen and imperial concubine didn't care about Zhao Kehan's behavior, and these palace concubines at the bottom were not good at putting on a face, so they all smiled and agreed: "The concubines should prepare gifts for the banquet." ”

Seeing that these concubines knew each other, the Queen Mother's majestic face softened a little.

After smiling and patting Zhao Kehan's hand, she looked at everyone again: "Also, now that Concubine Ning has been beaten into the cold palace, the palace power in her hands has also been handed over to Concubine Chen, but Concubine Hua has been dealing with harem affairs for so long, but she can't even identify the liar, and the mourning family sees that you don't have the ability to hold the palace power, so give the palace power in your hands to the queen!" ”

Until now, the Queen Mother has not forgotten to think about the palace power in her hands!

Concubine Hua's face sank, and her eyes instantly showed resentment.

She gritted her teeth and said unwillingly: "Queen Mother, the concubine knows that she is wrong, and the concubine was also blinded by lard that day, so there will be that unintentional mistake, but after all, the concubine has managed the affairs of the palace for so long, and the queen has just returned to the palace, I am afraid it is still difficult to deal with palace affairs, and the concubine has been in charge of palace affairs for three years, and she has already been familiar with the rules......"

The queen mother waved her hand, and didn't listen to her continue at all, but said with a tough attitude: "Concubine Hua, the mourning family is not discussing with you, the queen is the master of the harem, and the power of this palace should also be in the hands of the queen, so even the phoenix seal you withheld privately should be returned to the queen today!" ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar at the bottom!

"No wonder Concubine Hua is so fearless, she turned out to be in charge of the Phoenix Seal?"

Everyone whispered, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces.

Concubine Hua's face turned red, and she didn't know whether she was embarrassed or angry.

Although she was greedy and took the queen's phoenix seal, the queen hadn't asked her about it in the past few years, so she hid the phoenix seal in the palace, because she was just a second-grade concubine, she couldn't use the phoenix seal, so she put the phoenix seal beside her.

It can also be regarded as a way for Concubine Hua to quench her thirst.

It's just the Queen Mother, how could she know that Fengyin is in her palace?

Despite all her unwillingness, Concubine Hua still clenched the champa and said, "The concubine obeys the order and will hand over the palace affairs to ......the emperor in two days."

"Wait!"

Suddenly, the queen, who had been silent, stopped her, and then she curtsied to the queen mother and said with a smile: "Queen Mother, the concubine is indeed not very familiar with palace affairs, and it must be very tricky to deal with. ”

The queen's words were tantamount to a bombshell, which was thrown in the crowd and caused an uproar.

Shang Kelan's eyes flashed slightly, and she didn't make a sound, only took a sip of tea lightly, and quietly looked at the queen and the queen mother.

Zhao Kehan stood quietly beside the Queen Mother, calmly looking at these concubines in the hall, and seemed to be not concerned about palace affairs.

When the Queen Mother heard this, she frowned, looked at the queen with dissatisfaction and said, "Since you are the queen, you can't be so petty, it's time to learn to deal with palace affairs!" ”

A few days after she warmed up the palace power, the queen mother would take the palace power away from her, and this thought was clearly written on the queen mother's face, why should the queen bother to do this?

It's better to hand over the palace power to Concubine Chen, anyway, Concubine Chen's net worth background is very strong, and how this group of people will compete for palace power at that time has nothing to do with her.

Mingzhe's move to protect herself, the queen can't understand.

So, she smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "Alas, the concubines have been burning incense and worshiping the Buddha in recent years, and they have long stopped asking about the world. ”

Obviously, the palace power that everyone wants, when it comes to the queen, how can it become a terrifying creature like poisonous insects and beasts?

It can be seen that the queen is really cowardly, except for playing a round, she can't do anything!

Just when everyone had this idea in their hearts, Shang Kelan's eyes narrowed slightly.

A dark glint flashed in her eyes when she looked at the queen, and she said in her heart: This queen, is it really as greedy for palace power as she seems? Why did he push the palace power on her again and again?

If it was a coincidence to shirk Concubine Ning's palace power last time, then how to explain Concubine Hua's palace power this time?
