Chapter 171: Dexterity
There is one more princess in the palace, and the atmosphere seems to be much calmer.
The maids in the palace all said that this new queen has no frame at all, and she smiles when she sees people, never speaks loudly, let alone beats and scolds the maids, and there is a reward to take at every turn.
For a while, the palace people sharpened their heads and wanted to drill into the harem. Live less and relax, laugh and moan all day long, and take more, who doesn't want to.
If it is assigned to the queen hall, it will be miserable. Facing a bitter face all day long, cold as frost, not smiling, and his eyes are as sharp as knives, which makes people tremble, for fear that he will be sentenced to death if he does something wrong.
But if you ask which palace person died under the hands of Empress Dai, no one can be named.
Everyone in the world is centered on their own interests, and whoever is good to themselves is a good person, and this method of judging is simple and crude.
On this day, Shi Wang remembered the king's advice, so he went into the palace to talk to Princess Sangping.
As soon as I reached the entrance of the temple, I heard my aunt's laughter.
Two steps further in, I saw Princess Sangping and Queen Sue sitting together, Queen Su pounded Princess Sangping's back, the two chatted and laughed.
"Yuan Ping is here, come over and try your sister-in-law's craftsmanship. Her osmanthus cake is really superb. Princess Sangping smiled.
Shi Wang realized that there was still a snack box on the table, and half of the osmanthus cake was missing.
When she saw it, she hurriedly got up to greet her, and said with a smile: "The princess has often interacted with Ning Mansion, and Sister Wu's craftsmanship has also tasted a lot. I'm afraid these clumsy things are not to the princess's liking. ”
Shi Wang hurriedly said no, and according to the wishes of the two, he picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and tasted it.
Sweet, too sweet, in addition to sweetness, it is too strong osmanthus aroma, diffuse in the mouth, making people a little dizzy. After eating one piece, I am already tired of it, and I don't want to eat the second piece.
The pastries made by Sister Wu have always been light, never letting the taste overflow the taste of the ingredients themselves, and the amount of ingredients is also very particular, one more is too strong, one less is too light, the taste and fragrance always complement each other to be considered complete.
In contrast, it is immediately clear who is better and who is inferior.
Shi Wang looked at his aunt who was smiling and bowed slightly, and said, "It's delicious." ”
Princess Sangping was very happy, pulled Shi Wang to her side, and accompanied by two juniors, one on the left and one on the right, with rare treatment, she kept talking and laughing.
In the past, Shi Wang accompanied his aunt, and most of them were aunts talking and listening to themselves. Now that there is a queen of guilt, I can talk to my aunt without being blunt at all.
My aunt rarely goes to the people to walk around, and likes to listen to some market stories, so I will tell her some books about the storyteller, as well as the people's feelings and customs, and there seems to be endless topics.
When Shi Wang was leaving, Princess Sangping was in high spirits, and only nodded slightly to indicate that she was walking slowly, and was not sent to the door as before.
She thought that her aunt would not be bored in the palace in the future.
What is my aunt's taste, I want to be more or less clear, and it is common for me to like heavy taste.
But Shi Wang had also tasted the meal made by Bai Luo in Ningfu, and it didn't seem to be such an ingredient. Why is it that now, her craftsmanship is in line with her aunt's appetite?
Shi Wang didn't know the reason, but she felt that the queen was definitely not as simple as she appeared.
Although there was a princess in Ning Mansion, she did not make any noise, but there were still congratulatory gifts sent to Ning Mansion, but they were all sent back by Wu Qingsheng, saying that she was in charge of her own life, and she had nothing to do with Ning Mansion, and she did not dare to be discredited because of this.
It looks like he parted ways with the queen, making people speculate about the relationship between the two.
After that, the queen sent a gift to Ning Mansion to thank her for her previous favors, but she was also turned away and carried back as it was.
Everyone is General Dao Ning, and he is unwilling to make a profit in the name of the new concubine.
But in the Ning Mansion, it really drew a clear line with the queen.
Wu Qingsheng alerted everyone in the mansion and asked them not to say anything related to the queen outside, and that nothing that the queen did in the mansion in the past should not reveal the slightest thing to the outside world.
Why is Bai Luo's matter strictly controlled, perhaps from the day when the political king came to the mansion and Bai Luo personally made the sweet brew praised by the political king on the grounds of helping, Wu Qingsheng understood her intentions.
In the past, the political king also praised Bai Luo's craftsmanship and personally named him to taste it, but it was just an accident, and he had never seen Bai Luo so active.
Now that it is the time to choose a concubine, Bai Luo bumped into her like this, and the discerning person naturally knew her intentions.
Those who ask must have a plan, and now that Bai has fallen into the queen, no one knows what will happen in the future.
The best plan is to clear up with her, and it is inconvenient to have anything to do with it, and it will no longer disturb whether you are rich or not in the future.
The reason for this is only known to Wu Qingsheng and Ning Zeqing, and when the people in the house saw her repeated advice, they only regarded it as a shelter from the limelight, and there was no suspicion.
Even if there is little contact with the Ning Mansion, the queen is the queen of the queen, the favorite concubine of Wang Shangxinna, the nephew and daughter-in-law of Princess Sangping, and the mother of the country who is the son of Wei Er, these identities cannot be faked.
Although the king is busy with government affairs, he always takes the time to go to the queen side, and eats there when he stays, and the two are happy and harmonious, which is a rare scene of harmony between the emperor and queen in the harem.
The Central Plains of the Dynasty had a slight remark about breaking monogamy and accepting commoner women as queens, but the emperor and queen were only good for state affairs if they were harmonious, and it would be better if they could give birth to an heir.
Above the court, there seems to be a new atmosphere.
Not only did the king of politics smile a lot, but even the ministers were also a lot more relaxed.
"Since the Autumn Feast, Klee has not moved, and there is no sign of further alliances with other nations. It's a happy event for my son. ”
Wen gradually said: "Ke Liding realized the gap with my son from the autumn banquet, and he didn't dare to make it again. The prestige of my dynasty and the respect of all countries are the blessings of Your Majesty. ”
When he said this, the king was naturally happy.
But Ning Zeqing didn't approve of it: "Keli's ambition has long been known to the world. His current silence may also be dormant, waiting for the time to take action. Don't take it lightly. ”
Shi Wang also said: "Although Keli is a small country, it is a big disaster for a group of small countries to gather in one place, not to mention that He Guo and Keli are very good friends, and their troops are strong, which should not be underestimated." At present, there is no change, which is naturally a good thing. But its own strength is the guarantee. As long as the soldiers and horses are abundant and the soldiers are sufficient, they will not be afraid of others. ”
Ning Zeqing saw what she said, for the sake of her son everywhere, if she hadn't listened to her words with her own ears, she would have been unable to imagine that everything she said here was a resistance to her father's country.
However, among the courts, only one person knows, and he only has his own feelings.
King Zheng was also very happy with Shi Wang's words: "Sister Wang's words are reasonable, seeing that the army in the country is getting stronger, this king is also very pleased." ”
He paced a few steps in the hall, and suddenly said: "The generals have many talents, why don't you all come to the competition and choose the best of the armies?" ”
