Chapter 475: Calculation
The head of the Shangyi Bureau, Mama, took two palace maids and followed Mama Ti into Cining Palace.
The Queen Mother had already changed her clothes and freshened up, and sat majestically on the top.
There was a faint hint of joy on her dignified and self-contained face, and she shouted to the people who knelt down and saluted, and asked quietly: "Mama, but the queen asked you to come?" ”
When the lady in charge heard this, she said respectfully: "Back to the Queen Mother, exactly." In half a month, there will be a Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet, and the queen maid ordered the slave maid to make new clothes for the queen mother. ”
Hearing what she wanted to hear, the Queen Mother couldn't hide a flash of excitement in her eyes, and coughed lightly: "Then there is Lao Ruma." ”
Ru Mama led the palace maid to measure the queen mother's body, bowed her head and retreated.
The Queen Mother quickly gave Mama Ti a look, Mama Ti understood, took Mama Ruru out of the hall, stuffed her with a bag, and asked a few words in a whisper before returning.
"Niangniang, it is said that the emperor allowed you to participate in the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet." Mama Ti whispered.
The Queen Mother sat up straight and asked, "Is there a ban on exempting Cining Palace?" ”
Mama Ti hesitated for a moment, then shook her head.
The Queen Mother sat back in a gloomy manner, squeezed the handle of the chair with her hand, and said hatefully: "I knew that the white-eyed wolf would not let go of the mourning family so easily!" ”
"Mother." Mama Ti raised her eyes worriedly, the Queen Mother couldn't say anything like this.
The Queen Mother gritted her teeth: "He will not dare to tell what the mourning family has done!" If the world knows, it won't do him any good! After all, the mourning family is his mother, and the mourning family has done something wrong, and his face is not shiny! ”
Rubbing the ground and getting up, the Queen Mother walked up to Mama Ti, "Besides, if you really want to think about this, do you know what others will think?" ”
When Mama Ti heard this, she shook her head and said, "The slave doesn't know. ”
"Others will think that the mourning family did that to put him in power!" The Queen Mother suddenly laughed, "So tell me, does he dare to make that matter public?" He didn't dare! ”
"Since he didn't dare, there was no reason to publicly confine the mourning family, and he didn't dare not let the mourning family attend this Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet!"
Pouring out these words, the Queen Mother's heart was much happier, and she took a few steps back and forth: "Mother Ti, the mourning family wants to take the opportunity of the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet to fight for Qing Ge'er." ”
"Niangniang," Mama Ti said, "what are you going to do?" ”
"The mourning family wants to write a letter to the town of Guogong." The Queen Mother pondered, "Go and prepare pen, ink, paper, and inkstone." ”
Zhenguo Mansion.
Zhen Guogong, who was reading in the study, received a letter from the Queen Mother who sent it secretly.
He read the letter silently, and slowly burned the letter paper on the candle flame.
"Guess what the Queen Mother wants to do?"
"Grandpa Guo, the Empress Dowager is imprisoned by the emperor in Cining Palace," his henchman carefully looked at Grandpa Guo's expression on the side, "Don't you want Grandpa Guo to help go to the emperor to say good things?" ”
Zhen Guogong sneered: "If that's the case, it's not difficult for the old man to go to the emperor to intercede for her." It's just that this man's heart is not enough, and the snake swallows the elephant. ”
He stood up and walked to the window with his hands behind his back.
He and the Queen Mother are distant cousins.
Back then, the queen mother participated in the draft in Beijing and stayed in their house, but after all, there is a difference between men and women, and they lived in his house for half a month, and the two did not talk twice.
Later, the queen mother was elected to the palace, and climbed up step by step from a small position, but it was all supported by their family.
In this way, the two sides slowly became each other's help until today.
It can be said that their Zhenguo Mansion is the power of relatives behind the Queen Mother, and they should support the Queen Mother.
However, what the Queen Mother mentioned in the letter, Zhen Guogong tightened his brows.
"The Queen Mother is old and confused." He leaned back slowly, his eyes narrowed.
Unashamedly, he wanted to force the palace to rebel.
Do you want him to be with her inside and out?
Zhen Guogong sighed, his Zhenguo Gong has a huge influence in Daqing State, and it is not difficult to respond to every call, but for such a kid who grew up in the countryside and village to commit a crime, is it stupid to be his Zhenguo Gong?
The henchman learned what the Queen Mother thought, and gasped fiercely: "Grandpa Guo, if the Queen Mother really does that, what should I do?" ”
"She can't make it!"
Zhen Guogong's thick eyebrows furrowed, "If she really insists on going her own way, the old man will draw a line with her!" ”
The Queen Mother was quite smart when she was young, but the older she gets, the stronger her desire for power becomes, but people become more and more paranoid.
Back then, she hid from her and let people hunt down the first emperor, and now she wants to force the palace to rebel at the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet, how can she be so bold!
It's self-defeating!
"But do you want to send a letter back to the Queen Mother to persuade her old man?" The henchman whispered advice.
"No." Zhen Guogong shook his head, "This matter is very important, if he is exposed one day, our letter is a talisman!" ”
"I don't know about this. We haven't heard back, and the Queen Mother will know the old man's attitude in a few days. ”
"If she can figure it out, it's her creation."
"If she can't figure it out, the old man can't help her!"
The Queen Mother waited for two days and couldn't wait for a reply from Zhen Guogong, and she was so anxious that the corners of her mouth were foaming.
Although her plan is abrupt, according to her calculations, the success rate is extremely high!
If Zhenguo Gong helps her, after Qing Ge'er ascends the throne, he will be the biggest hero!
Mama Ti followed the Queen Mother and persuaded in a low voice: "Maybe it's inconvenient to deliver news to the palace?" ”
The Queen Mother sneered: "With his ability, it is easy to send a letter." ”
"Take pen and ink again, and write a letter to him again!"
Not long after, Zhen Guogong received another letter from the Queen Mother.
This time, the Queen Mother was full of emotion in the letter, not only from the perspective of family affection, but also from the perspective of various interests in the future, and saw that Zhen Guogong's face was cold.
Throwing the letter directly into the fire: "It's funny! The old man has long been above ten thousand people under one person, and he still needs her old fool to give it? ”
The Empress Dowager still did not wait for the response of the Duke of Zhenguo, and seeing that there were less than ten days left before the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet, her heart became more and more nervous.
"Didn't Zhenguo Gong think that without his help, the mourning family would not be able to succeed?" The Queen Mother snorted coldly and put the teacup on the table.
Mama Ti hesitated: "Niangniang, Zhen Guogong didn't reply to you, will you ...... this matter?"
"He won't, and he won't dare."
The Queen Mother said firmly: "Inside and outside the entire court, who doesn't know that he and the mourning family are the same faction?" This matter, even without his help, the mourning family can be successful. ”
The queen later pondered: "Maybe he wants to look at the actions of the mourning family before deciding?" ”
"Zhen Guogong, this old fox, will definitely not act impulsively," the Queen Mother said to herself, "If the mourning family fails, he will definitely take himself out." If the mourning family succeeds, he will immediately stand on the side of the mourning family. ”
"Yes, it must be."
The Queen Mother's eyes flashed with a blazing light, "Ati, we must not afford to lose this time!" ”
