Chapter 422: Conspiracy (Still Middle)
Su Ruhui smiled indifferently: "That's the position of this prince, it's actually a hot potato!" The Shen family, since calculating the former prince and the current good king, did not plan to ask Gan Tang to follow him to live in the East Palace! ”
"But Miss," Fushui was taken aback, but immediately thought of something wrong, "how can Dayong's position as the crown prince be a hot potato?" And if that's the case, why should the Shen family bother to abolish the former prince? Wouldn't this have caused the Queen Mother and Her Royal Highness to dislike the Queen Mother and Her Majesty? How could the Shen family do such a foolish thing? ”
"The Shen family is not confused." Su Ruhui sneered, "It's still the same sentence, the good king is both long and long, and he rarely has a good reputation, but he is a prince that no one can pick!" The potato that is hot for Gan Ran may not be so hot in his hands...... More importantly, do you think it is easy to drag down a prince who is the eldest son, or is it easy to pull down a prince who has a humble biological mother and an adoptive mother who is not in the main palace and has a thin family background and a reputation? ”
Floating water opened her mouth and stammered, and after a while, she ate and said, "So, Shen family...... Is the Shen family planning to seize the crown again? ”
"So I deliberately led Concubine Leng into the palace and gave Concubine Shen Shu a chance, just to see what the Shen family had planned?" Su Ruhua was very regretful, "It's just ...... Unexpectedly, it was my cousin who was in trouble first! ”
"Miss, that Shen Zipei is late today, there must be some scheme!" Fushui said seriously, "Guifei Niangniang......" Before she finished speaking, in the quiet night, there was a sudden sound of knocking on the door outside!
"Who is it?" Floating in the water was startled, but Su Ruhui seemed to have already thought: "She can be regarded as coming, go open the door and invite people in." ”
The floating water went out with doubts, and after a while, the cloak was still stained with night dew. Danzhu, who was wet, entered the inner room with a pale face, and before the floating water receded, she split her head and said: "Your Majesty has a big fire in Zhaohua Palace!" ”
"I know, because we didn't see Concubine De Niangniang coming over to visit Guifei Niangniang when we came out of Xifu Palace." Su Ruhua said to the floating waterway, "Go make hot tea!" ”
There was a stirring anger between Dan Zhu Meiyu: "Your Majesty told Concubine De Niangniang not to raise Princess Rongshou, saying that she wanted to give it to Concubine Zhuang to raise!" ”
She took a deep breath and looked at Su Ruhui, "Sister Ruhui, you never said before that things would turn out like this!" ”
"Hug it to Concubine Zhuang?" Su Ruhui said suddenly, "Is it Concubine Zhuang and not Liu Xiuyi?" ”
"Naturally not!" Danzhu said angrily, "After Princess Rongshou asked about the Fourth Highness, His Majesty was furious and reprimanded Concubine De Niangniang for learning from Concubine Zhuang's steady knowledge, instead of not even taking good care of a princess, so that the princess thinks about everything all day long!" ”
Su Ruhui pressed her eyebrows and seemed to say to herself: "This is not right......"
"Sister Rue!" Danzhu obviously endured his anger, "I know what you have planned a lot, but the princess is young, her biological mother and adoptive mother are gone, and even the most trusted brother is not around, how can you bear to use her?" I have always known that you are smart, but you are not a ruthless and unrighteous person, but this time you ......"
Seeing Su Ruhui looking at herself quietly, Danzhu was watched by her, and she didn't know why, her voice became smaller and smaller, and she sighed: "I proposed this matter to Concubine De Niangniang, and I have also had it." ”
"If you really want the princess to be well, in fact, it is a good thing to watch her being sent to Concubine Zhuang." Su Ruhui said leisurely, "After all, Concubine Zhuang has been out of favor for many years and is old, so she doesn't expect to have a child of her own, even if it is to pass the time, she will treat the princess well." ”
Danzhu was stunned: "Are you really for the princess?" ”
"Concubine De Niangniang is interested in Princess Rongshou or not, can't you see it?" Su Ruhua said leisurely, "Although the princess is also the heir of the emperor, how can she be better than the prince?" Even if it's just a vassal king, when it's time to become a vassal prince, the mother concubine can also go to the feudal country to be the queen mother of a country, but what about the princess? Although the Queen Mother said that she didn't want the royal family to produce Yiyuan, Guangyi, etc., but was the Queen Mother willing to marry the eldest princess Yiyuan to Qiu Di back then? ”
"Will Concubine Zhuang treat the princess well? But wouldn't this also annoy Concubine De? Dan Zhu muttered, "What's more, if Your Majesty really wants to continue to take Princess Rongshou and kiss, even if she is raised by the queen's side, it will be the same, right?" ”
"Concubine Zhuang has become more and more unfavored over the years, she is also old, and she can only occupy a concubine position in the deep palace, what should you do to treat Princess Rongshou?" Su Ruhui said leisurely, "Moreover, don't forget, in the palace, there are still three mothers who are pregnant!" Concubine Hui seems to be about to give birth? ”
Dan Zhuqi said: "What does this have to do with the princess?" Didn't the hospital say that men and women hadn't been cut off yet? ”
"Now there are bodies in the palace according to the order of childbirth, the main seat of Liuxia Palace, Concubine Hui, the head of Xifu Palace, Huo Guifei, and the Baolin Xu family of Pinglan Pavilion of Lanqiu Palace, of which the first two are on the third grade, and they are the main position, so whether they give birth to a prince or a princess, they must be able to raise them under their knees." Su Ruhui snorted slightly, "Only Xu Baolin, Baolin is the fifth grade, originally according to the palace rules, Baolin and above, are qualified to be the lord of the first palace, but His Majesty's harem is full, and the lord of Lanqiu Palace is the nine concubines from the second grade!" Even with the example of Concubine Niangniang, Xu Baolin's children are afraid that it is not easy to stay by their side. ”
"The imperial heir should be raised by a concubine above the third grade, this is the practice set at the founding of the country, there are few violators, in fact, this is also for the good of the imperial heir, after all, the kings and princesses of the feudal country, Tang Mudi, the mother concubine who is not from a high background can not say half a word." Su Ruhui said lightly, "Now there are those in the palace who are older than the third grade and have no children under their knees, headed by Concubine De Niangniang, Mrs. Duanyao, Mu Zhaorong, Fang Chongyi, and ...... Hua Xiuyuan! ”
Danzhu looked at her in a daze: "I don't understand...... As Sister Hua meant, this will help Concubine De to win the support of Xu Baolin's child, so although Concubine De Niangniang lost the support of Princess Rongshou, she still won't be angry? ”
"On the contrary, Your Majesty was angry with Concubine De Niangniang tonight because of His Royal Highness, and even said that Concubine De Niangniang is not as good as Concubine Zhuang as a mother, Xu Baolin's child Concubine De Niangniang has no hope!" Su Ruhui said leisurely, seeing that Danzhu was shocked, she spit out a sentence, "In this way, Concubine De will put all her thoughts on the Fourth Highness!" ”
"But if Concubine De Niangniang intends to adopt Xu Baolin's child, what did she do in the first place to ask Concubine Niangniang to agree to record the Fourth Highness in her name?" Dan Zhu asked puzzled.
Su Ruhui sneered: "Do you remember at the beginning of last year, well, it was this time last year, there were many rumors in the palace about Zhaohua Palace, and it was also mentioned that the wife of Zhao Yu, who had angered the Queen Mother because of the crossing of the hairpin ring before the Laba Festival that we had just met?" ”
"That's ......"
"Concubine De and Concubine De are at odds, but in contrast, Concubine De is more loved by His Majesty than Concubine Shu, and she is also friendly with His Majesty's favorite concubine. But Concubine Niangniang has three highnesses, but Concubine De has nothing. Su Ruhui sneered and said, "So, even if Concubine Niangniang is not loved by His Majesty, she can follow the Third Highness to the vassal in the future, but Concubine De Niangniang is destined to die of old age in the palace, or, in the future, she will be martyred for Your Majesty!" ”
Danzhu's eyes widened: "Sister Rue, you mean...... Concubine De knew that Concubine Niangniang would not let her adopt His Royal Highness smoothly, so she deliberately proposed it, and when Concubine Niangniang objected once, when she proposed it again, if Concubine Niangniang objected again, it would make the Queen Mother and Her Majesty feel that she was deliberately embarrassed, so it would be much more convenient? ”
"How can it be so simple?" Su Ruhui shook her head, "You don't want to think about it, at the beginning of last year, there was no pregnancy in the palace, from the twenty-ninth year of Changtai, until the middle of last year, the concubine was pregnant, Concubine De is old, although she has not fallen out of favor, but she is not as prosperous as the concubine, not everyone has the blessing of the concubine." ”
"Concubine De really wanted to adopt a prince for the future, and among the six highnesses at that time, the only and best choice was of course the fourth highness." Su Ruhui squinted, "The same concubine Niangniang wants to consider for the Fourth Highness, and she will agree to this, after all, the prince under the name of one of the four concubines of Zhengyipin and the prince under the knee of the third-grade concubine have a huge gap when they take up the domain, not to mention that although the concubine Niangniang has the mercy of the Queen Mother, the emperor's favor is close to nothing!" ”
Danzhu rubbed the corners of his forehead, and subconsciously said: "But last time, when Your Majesty was angry, Concubine De still tried her best to protect His Royal Highness." ”
"Of course she wants to protect His Royal Highness." Su Ruhui smiled lightly, "The Queen Mother is seriously ill and can't be a director, think about who is the person who has the greatest benefit in this palace?" It's Huo Guifei! So who is the palace concubine who has the best relationship with the concubine? It's Concubine De's mother...... What's more, that day was supposed to be the time when the Queen Mother would wake up, as Yu Taiqi said, when the Middle Palace was still recuperating, and Concubine Shuniang was reprimanded by His Majesty to return to Yongxin Palace for reflection because she disturbed the concubine's rest in Xifu Palace! Concubine De, who was in charge of palace affairs, arranged her and the four highnesses' guards to be guarded when the Queen Mother woke up, but something went wrong at this time and the Queen Mother couldn't afford to be ill...... You said that if she still allowed Her Majesty to kill the Fourth Highness alive, what would Your Majesty think when she came to her senses? ”
Danzhu opened his mouth, his face pale.
"The reason why the number and hour of the sick are managed by Concubine De is because the two concubines and concubines of De had a dispute when they asked me about the death of Xiao Huo, so they went to Xifu Palace to find the concubine Niangniang to administer justice, but the result was that the concubine was tossed so much that His Majesty was alarmed...... Your Majesty calmed down, why didn't he think: Concubine De first deliberately couldn't get along with Concubine Shu when she interrogated me, and used the hand of Concubine Guifei to lock Concubine Shu back to Yongxin Palace, and took the power of the palace alone, and then took the opportunity to instruct His Royal Highness...... even colluded with Yu Taiqi to murder the Queen Mother? Su Ruhui said leisurely, "Therefore, if Concubine De Niangniang was beaten to death by His Majesty when she watched the Fourth Highness, she would wait for Concubine Shu and others to accuse her of instigating the Fourth Highness to murder the Queen Mother in the future!" After all, if the Fourth Highness is dead, there is no proof of death, this kind of thing, as long as some rumors come out, there is no need to confront Concubine De, and she will not have a good end! ”
Danzhu's eyes widened, and his lips trembled slightly: "Difficult, is it the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother's illness ......?"
"Don't think about it!" Su Ruhui patted her hand softly, and a trace of pity flashed in her eyes, "His Royal Highness is also pitiful." ”
