After that, he frowned again: "Is the concubine very old?" Why don't you see wrinkles when you look in the mirror? ”

"What is old, younger than me." Qi Yan smiled: "She said you are old? He Meiren has been arrogant in the past few months. ”

"I'm not here to complain, I'm just talking to the emperor first, lest I be this wicked person." Shangguan Ji shook his head.

"Well, I know you won't bully people for no reason, and the queen certainly does. He is young and very ignorant. Originally, I also said that she gave birth to this child, and I promoted her to the throne. Now, it doesn't have to. ”

"This kind of thing. What did the emperor tell me to do? I don't dare to care, what about myself......" Shangguan Ji smiled: "I haven't given birth all these years, so I guess I don't have that ability." I don't plan to raise children, I just have to accompany the emperor for the rest of my life. I don't want others. ”

"You, you, don't talk about the past. I'm not afraid of jealousy. Qi Yan laughed.

"Your Majesty is really! I'm not saying that I married the emperor, just that the person in front of me is not good. He was a good man. It's just that we don't have a deep fate. But what kind of person is the emperor? Since I came to the court, it has been more than ten years, who does the emperor think he has been convinced? Still jealous? ”

"Come on, you're really leaving me speechless. It's you, you know everything. What the queen doesn't know, you know. Qi Yan shook his head.

"Your Majesty." Outside, Fuyu shouted.

"Come in and talk back."

"Your Majesty, Concubine Niang, the Empress has sent someone to talk back."

"Call in, too." Qi Yan said.

Not long after, a eunuch came in, and it was the big eunuch beside the queen.

"The slave invites the emperor's peace, and the concubine's mother's peace."

"Well, tell me, what's the matter?" Qi Yan asked.

"Back to the emperor's words, just now, He Meiren went to Fengzao Palace to cry. Of course, Niangniang refused to listen to and believe partially, so she also passed on Wang Baolin. Got the matter straight. I was afraid that the lady concubine would be angry because of He Meiren's inappropriate words, so she called the slave to come. One is to go back to the emperor, and the other is to tell the lady that the queen knows everything. It's not your fault. ”

"The concubine thanked the queen for her understanding, but the queen was also a little more careful. When did I stop believing in such things? Shangguan Ji smiled.

"Well, you go and tell the queen, just say that I will go to dinner later, and as for He Meiren, punish her for grounding. It doesn't have to come out before production. I'll talk about that later. Qi Yan waved his hand.

"Yes." The eunuch hurriedly responded and left.

"Oh, I will go to the queen today, and I will go out with you in a while. I'll see you tomorrow. ”

"Okay." Shangguan Ji smiled: "The queen mother has no concubine yet, and the emperor should go more." ”

"Do you really think so?" Qi Yan laughed deliberately.

"Your Majesty, don't be funny." Shangguan Ji squeezed his hand.

Qi Yan hugged her with a smile, and the two of them talked.

Empress Ye was naturally happy when the emperor was coming.

"Concubine Shu really understands the righteousness. I, the queen, can't be biased, although He Meiren is wrong, but she has an imperial heir in her belly. How can I ......?"

"According to the slave maid, the queen mother does not have to worry. Although the identity of the concubine is different, she is now also the concubine of the Son of Heaven. The Queen Mother has always been fair. Our emperor is also reasonable. There is no reason to be angry. But today, Niangniang is too polite. ”

"Then I'll just pay attention to it in the future." The queen sighed.

Bai Mei suddenly knelt down: "Niangniang." The slave has a saying that she has wanted to say for several years. ”

"You say that, what do you say?" The queen was going to pull her up.

didn't pull it up, not only did she refuse to get up, but Bailing also knelt down.

"Niangniang, do you remember what you were like before you got married? At that time, even the emperor when he was the crown prince praised you for being smart. When Yihe and Queen Yi were still alive, how many people were there when choosing the crown princess? Let's not talk about others, today's concubine Niangniang has not yet been out of the cabinet at that time. What a good candidate? You don't know the emperor's temperament? If he had thought it was good at that time, he would have married. The first emperor loved him, and with the support of Yi and the queen, he could naturally get his wish. ”

"There is also today's Concubine Huixian, the slave heard that there was a chance at the beginning. Although the first emperor felt that the Cui family's family was not enough, it was mostly because of the prince's general wishes at that time. But what about you back then? You have a wife he likes and is optimistic about. ”

"Have you forgotten? Back then, the prince told you that your name is good, and your person is also very good. At the time of the wedding, the slave and maid still remembered that the prince praised you for being very smart. ”

"A person like the emperor, what he likes will not be a dull queen who only knows the rules. Or do you want to be a queen who only knows the rules for the rest of your life? Empress! ”

"But I'm ...... So far, I have no children, this queen, I am ashamed to do it. Queen Ye wept.

"Niangniang, a woman's life, is it possible that she has to live like this because she has no son? If you don't have a son, will you be deposed? Even if you don't have a daughter, you're still a queen. There is no concubine, or a prince who is raised next to him, or a prince who is a prince. But no matter what, you just need to have good rules, too rigid, and you don't feel sad? ”

"What were you like when you were younger? Over the years, Concubine Hui Xian has never changed much. But you weren't like that before. ”

Empress Ye took a deep breath and wiped her tears: "I know, you guys get up." The emperor will come in a while. I ...... in my heart I know it all in my heart. ”

Only then did the two of them get up, fetch water to wash the queen's face, and put on makeup again.

After Qi Yan came, he didn't say anything, but if he didn't see it, no one would know.

Qi Yan didn't mention today's incident, and the queen didn't talk about it anymore.

but waited for him to eat and sleep.

Nothing happened for a few days.

Just when everyone didn't pay attention to this matter, Wang Baolin suddenly came to Fengzao Palace and knelt down and cried and said that He Meiren practiced witchcraft.

"The concubine saw it with her own eyes. The concubine lived with her, and although she was grounded, she was not really reflective. The concubines really didn't dare to deceive the queen. Wang Baolin said.

"Wang Baolin, what kind of sin is it to practice witchcraft in the palace, do you know?" The queen stood up suddenly.

"The concubine knows, the concubine knows that if it is true, it is a great sin. Because of this, the concubines don't dare to hide it, and if it breaks out one day, the concubines are also afraid. Wang Baolin said.

"If you don't see it really, the sin is yours. That's false accusation. "The queen is serious.

"Niangniang, the concubine has been in the palace for two years, although she is only Baolin, but she also knows the severity. has always been not in harmony with the beauty of Hemei, but he will not slander this kind of thing. The concubine's family still wants to live. Wang Baolin kowtowed, she was going to be scared to death when she first knew.
