Chapter 343: Intercession
"The emperor's favorite and most trusted is Niangniang! The mother said a few words casually, and maybe she could keep the child. This child will not compete with the mother for anything in the future, let alone threaten the crown prince of the queen mother! Before, the concubine was ignorant, and she collided with Niangniang, and asked Niangniang to forgive her sins! ”
Concubine Xian knelt down with her body propped up, looking at her slightly bulging lower abdomen, Wei Zhaohua thought, it should be before she came to Daduan, this Concubine Xian was already pregnant, right? It's just that I pity Daduan's palace rules, being a mother, but in the end I just gave up.
Wei Zhaohua couldn't bear to look at the appearance of Concubine Xian on the ground, but he still stretched out his hand to help Concubine Xian up.
"If the queen doesn't agree, the concubine won't be able to kneel for a long time!"
Wei Zhaohua withdrew his hand, this place has his back to the rockery, if someone passes by, he will not notice here, Concubine Xian still has a hand, and she knows what to do to be able to protect herself.
"Then you just kneel, the palace doesn't mind, it's not Anyun Pavilion here, and it can't get in the way of the palace's eyes!"
"You! How can you really be so vicious!" Concubine Xian couldn't help but scold, looking at Wei Zhaohua's back, even her voice was already trembling helplessly.
Wei Zhaohua turned around, "This palace has never felt that he is a bodhisattva who saves suffering, and he doesn't like to be threatened by others. Besides, you and I had a holiday before, and this palace has always remembered how you treated righteous desires. The original thing can be written off, but it is definitely not your current attitude. ”
After Wei Zhaohua finished speaking, he walked directly in the direction of going back. The virtuous concubine who stayed behind looked at Wei Zhaohua's back, and gradually sat down on the ground, and only after a long time did she hold on to the rockery and stand up gently.
When I returned to my yard, I was still busy. The palace people put up the lights and still enjoyed it.
Mama Li in the room was directing left and right, and on the bed cabinet, even the beams above her head were already covered with red ribbons, fluttering one after another, making her upset.
"Queen Mother, are you back? Look here, it's good to hang like this, these lanterns are to be hung on the head of the bed! And that ...... over there."
Mama Li saw Wei Zhaohua and hurriedly stepped forward to answer, but before Mama Li finished speaking, Wei Zhaohua smiled lightly and had already left the house. My yard looks like a mess, even if it's based on the comfort of others.
"Niangniang, Yin Xun's father-in-law is here."
Qingzhou walked to Wei Zhaohua's side and said in a low voice. Wei Zhaohua raised his eyes and saw Yin Xun standing beside Qingzhou, perhaps to weigh the red color of the courtyard, but Yin Xun's body also turned into dark red clothes.
"See the queen mother, the queen mother Wanfu Jin'an."
Yin Xun stepped forward and saluted Wei Zhaohua with a smile. Wei Zhaohua nodded lightly, he knew it.
"The emperor knew that Niangniang had a poor appetite recently, so he specially asked the servants to send these hibiscus cakes. said that Niangniang liked to eat this dim sum the most in the past, and more than ten masters made it, and I don't know which one is the most suitable for Niangniang's appetite? ”
Yin Xun said, gesturing slightly to the palace maid behind him. The palace maids understood, and everyone held a tray in their hands, and a few pieces of hibiscus crisp were placed on the delicate jade plate in the tray. Wei Zhaohua looked over, and there were more than ten people.
Seeing that Wei Zhaohua didn't move, the smile on Yin Xun's face inevitably stiffened a little, "Why don't you taste it?" How much is the emperor's mind, if you don't like it and then find someone else to do it, it's the same, if you like it, this chef will make pastries for the mother in the future! ”
Yin Xun was still smiling, and even the palace maids laughed. If Wei Zhaohua really didn't have any interest in these hibiscus cakes, they would suffer the most!
Wei Zhaohua stretched out his hand, Qingzhou stepped forward to support, and slowly walked in front of the palace maids. Looking at the hibiscus cakes placed on the jade plate, there was inevitably a little smile on his face. Indeed, when she was in Dongqi, her favorite thing to eat was hibiscus cake.
Walking casually in front of a palace maid, Wei Zhaohua gently pinched a piece of hibiscus cake and put it in his mouth. It melts in the mouth, with a hint of sweetness, although it tries its best to imitate the production method of Dongqi, but the taste is still not as good as half of Dongqi!
Before the whole hibiscus cake was eaten, Wei Zhaohua had already put the rest back on the plate.
"That's it, right? This palace thinks this tastes good, and you can take it back and pay for it. ”
Seeing Wei Zhaohua so perfunctory, Yin Xun's face was slightly stunned, and then he responded with a smile, and sent all the palace maids to retreat, leaving only the palace maid selected by Wei Zhaohua.
"Now that the queen has opened her mouth, the slave has only to obey orders. This plate of hibiscus cake will be left for the queen's mother, and the slave will send this cook to the queen's mother as soon as she returns! ”
Although Yin Xun said flatteringly, Wei Zhaohua just nodded lightly and then there was no follow-up.
"The queen doesn't seem to be in a good mood, I don't know if there is something on her mind? If you encounter something that disrupts your fun, it is better to talk to the minion, and the minion will definitely go back and explain it to the emperor well, and will not let the queen be wronged! ”
"You mean, is it impossible for this palace to look at other people's faces here? This palace just doesn't want to pay attention to you, nothing else. If the emperor is really worried about the palace, don't always think about these tricks, the palace doesn't like it! ”
Yin Xun's face froze, and when he heard Wei Zhaohua say so frankly that he didn't like these tricks, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
"Niangniang, Concubine Xian Niangniang is here!" Qingzhou's voice sounded in his ears, waiting for Wei Zhaohua's meaning.
Wei Zhaohua shook his head, Qingzhou understood, and quietly walked down. As for Yin Xun standing in place, seeing that he couldn't get any benefits, he could only leave in a hurry after asking for peace, leaving the palace maid with hibiscus cake.
Sitting in the courtyard and watching everyone busy, Wei Zhaohua was like water.
Until noon, it was unbearably hot outside, and Wei Zhaohua's face was already sweating, so he had to walk towards the house. Lowering his head and pretending not to see the furnishings in the room, Wei Zhaohua only thought that this place was still the same as it was.
Qingzhou brought the food and put it on the table, and Wei Zhaohua simply ate two bites. Maybe it's the hot weather, or maybe it's something else, in short, Wei Zhaohua seems to have no appetite.
"The queen mother, the virtuous concubine has been asking to see me outside, I don't know ......"
When Wei Zhaohua was about to rest, Qingzhou said softly again. Wei Zhaohua looked at the sky outside and sighed helplessly, "Go and invite her in." ”
"Yes." Qingzhou answered and walked outside.
Wei Zhaohua's eyes fell on the palace maid who gave the hibiscus cake, and he waved his hand gently, but he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he didn't see any signs of the palace maid leaving.
After looking closely, the palace maid's eyes were deep, the powder on her face seemed to be stained on purpose, and the clothes on her body were a little muddy, and in the palace where attention needs to be paid attention to everywhere, it stands to reason that such a palace maid should not appear. Wei Zhaohua walked towards the palace maid, and before he had time to take a closer look, Concubine Xian had already walked in from outside.
"See the Queen."
Seeing Wei Zhaohua, I don't know if Concubine Xian suddenly had a good memory, or just for the child in her belly, she made a big gift directly to Wei Zhaohua, that is, even the palace maid was startled, took a few steps back and lowered her head.
Wei Zhaohua gestured slightly to Qingzhou, Qingzhou understood, and walked out lightly, not forgetting to bring the door.
"You don't have to be so polite, this palace knows that you are sincere, otherwise you wouldn't have been waiting at the door of Anyun Pavilion for so long, but sincerity does not mean that this palace will definitely help you. The rules are never easily broken, and if this palace tries its best, if it still can't meet what you want, will you resent this palace? ”
Wei Zhaohua reclined on the soft couch, gently supporting his head with his hands, looking lazy but noble.
"As long as the queen mother is willing to agree, no matter what the final result is, it is better than the concubine herself I don't know how many times, and please ask the queen to open the net!"
Concubine Xian didn't care what Wei Zhaohua meant, in her opinion, as long as Wei Zhaohua wanted to, there was nothing she couldn't do.
"Now that the ceremony is coming, you have a lot of inconvenience in the palace, if you don't mind, the palace will find someone to ask the emperor what he means and send you out of the palace. Of course, the palace will not reveal half of your pregnancy to the emperor, but you still need to suffer a little bit of fatigue, as for the foothold after the palace, it is better for you to choose. In the future, if you give birth to a child, this palace can also think of other ways to take you back. ”
Hearing Wei Zhaohua's idea, Concubine Xian, who was still full of hope just now, couldn't help but feel a little lonely again.
If you leave the palace to give birth to a child, the inheritance of the royal bloodline in the future will inevitably make your children have a little more scruples. What's more, if Wei Zhaohua doesn't send someone to pick him up in the future, then he will only have to live outside the palace for the rest of his life, and live an unjustifiable life. Even his future children can't find any place to be!
Wei Zhaohua was not in a hurry to wait for Concubine Xian's reply, but instead looked at the palace maid on the side. No matter what, this palace maid always made Wei Zhaohua feel familiar. Looking at the palace maid's figure, Wei Zhaohua seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and he couldn't help but smile on his face.
"If the queen can ensure that the children of the concubine can recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors in the future, then the concubine is naturally very happy! But the concubine dared to ask the queen, what is the token? Although concubines and children don't care about many things, they must have a name for what is integrated into the blood! ”
