Chapter 190: Should I be reminded?
"If Concubine Fang dares to disobey, this is a handle in the future. When she is too pampered and arrogant, she will eventually suffer the consequences. It's like...... Lee's the same. ”
Cui shook his head and said, "Speaking of this, Concubine Zhao is still worthy of admiration." She has been favored for so long, and she is not arrogant at all, although she is usually not polite to Jiang Guiren or the Li family, but she has no intention of bullying the concubines who are lower than her, and she is even more respectful to the queen. Cuiwei was tired of hearing every time she replied, saying that Concubine Zhao was very respectful when she mentioned the queen in private, and she had no intention of slacking off. ”
The queen nodded, "This palace knows it. However, Cuiwei is a person from the palace, and Concubine Zhao knows it, even if she has any opinions about the palace, she will not say it in front of Cuiwei. Concubine Zhao is a smart person, if only Concubine Fang was as smart as Concubine Zhao, the palace would be able to worry less. ”
The will of copying the scriptures was passed on, and all the concubines smelled some signs of the queen's power.
Su Youyi didn't care, but she usually practiced calligraphy, and replaced the poems with Buddhist scriptures and copied them occasionally, which was regarded as self-cultivation.
Wan Chang didn't mind, but Yan Concubine and Chun Chang sighed.
"Alas, if I had known that there was such a thing as copying scriptures, I should have studied hard. Now, it's more painful to ask me to write than to punish me for anything! ”
"Me too, me too!"
Yan Concubine and Chunchang finally found common ground, looking like a difficult sister and a difficult sister.
Su Youyi couldn't help but laugh when she saw it, "If the two of you are really in pain, just copy less." ”
Concubine Yan's eyes rolled, "Sister Zhao, you can copy the scriptures so easily, why don't you copy a little for my sister?" A little bit is good! ”
Chun Changzai also looked at Wan Changzai, who was helpless and was about to agree, but heard Su Youyi speak.
"No. You'd rather copy less than let someone else do it for you. The queen's move is obviously powerful, in case the first generation of copying is discovered by her, wouldn't it be a shame to use you to kill chickens and monkeys? ”
That's right.
Su Youyi's handwriting is so beautiful, it is not the same thing as their dog crawling words, and the queen knew that it was copied at a glance.
Concubine Yan sighed, "I'm just afraid that there will be less copies of what the queen has to say, but I'll grind it slowly." ”
Su Youyi smiled: "It's okay, you don't know how to write and ink, the queen knows." Copy less, and when the time comes, as long as you go to the queen and make it clear that although you copy less, you are sincere, and each one is copied by yourself, it will be enough. Anyway, what the queen wants is to be attached to the hearts of the people, not to mention that her goal was not originally the two of you. ”
Concubine Yan bowed slightly when she heard this, "I understand, the important thing is to let the queen see our sincerity in respecting her, and it is better to copy less by yourself than by others." But who do you think she's targeting? ”
Wan Chang said tentatively: "Sister is saying...... Concubine Fang? ”
"yes."
Su Youyi said: "Sister Yan and Concubine Fang live together, it should be the clearest, is the queen mother's hush and warmth to Concubine Fang less these days?" ”
Yan Concubine said: "It's true! In the past, she had to send someone to ask Concubine Fang's fetal portrait every once in a while, lest the emperor accuse her of not taking good care of the dragon fetus as a queen. Now I don't send anyone to ask, I thought it was because the queen herself was sick and couldn't take care of it, but now that I think about it, I am indeed dissatisfied. ”
Chunchang put down the pen, looked at the black ink in his hand, and couldn't help asking, "Did Concubine Fang copy the scriptures?" ”
Su Youyi looked at Concubine Yan, she also wanted to know whether Concubine Fang had copied it or not.
Concubine Yan shook her head, "Anyway, I didn't hear the palace people say that she copied the scriptures, and when she thinks that when she comes, she will use the reason that she is unwell, what else can the queen do with her?" ”
"Yes, the queen mother has just been criticized by the courtiers, saying that she treats Jiang Guiren harshly. What if you take Concubine Fang again, won't you be in the name of meanness? ”
Su Youyi couldn't help but smile when she heard what they said: "But the queen is sick, and as a concubine, she has the obligation to pray for her." If the queen doesn't mention the matter of copying the scriptures, since she has mentioned it, Concubine Fang is disrespectful to the middle palace if she doesn't copy it, she doesn't care about this charge now that she is pregnant, and she has to care about it in the future. ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"Think about it, if Concubine Fang's child is not born safely, her dependence will be gone. Or the child is born only a princess, and when the queen treats her with the crime of disrespect, what else can she do? ”
Su Youyi said, and said: "Besides, most of the concubines in the palace are not literate, everyone is copying scriptures, only her concubine is idle, and everyone will inevitably be resentful and jealous." This kind of resentment and jealousy is fatal if it accumulates for a long time, and the queen's hand is not in vain. ”
After she said this, Concubine Yan immediately reacted, "Yes, even I, who have a good relationship with her, feel unfair, let alone Concubine Hui and Jiang Guiren?" Concubine Fang was also too impatient, she was pressed too hard by the Li family in the past, but now she floated away without anyone pressing her. ”
Concubine Yan hesitated for a moment when she said this, as if she wanted to remind Concubine Fang.
Su Youyi knew what she was thinking, so she said: "The queen can't deal with Jiang Guiren directly now, her eyes are on Concubine Fang, it is beneficial to us, and my sister should understand this truth." ”
Concubine Yan suddenly realized that in addition to Concubine Fang, the most powerful thing to shake the queen's power was none other than Su Youyi, the favorite concubine, and her, the concubine who suddenly had a son.
In that case, she knew whether it was time to remind Concubine Fang.
"Niangniang, do you feel better today?"
In the room where the iceberg was sitting, Concubine Fang leaned on the chaise longue and ate grapes, and the palace maids stood aside, not daring to slack off.
Concubine Fang opened her mouth slightly, and a palace maid brought the peeled grapes to her mouth, and the sweet juice flowed out as soon as she bit it.
She closed her eyes and nodded slightly, "Today's grapes are so sweet, and I feel a lot more comfortable eating in this palace." ”
The palace maid flattered: "That's nature, this is the Portuguese grapes from the Western Regions, and there are not many in total." Niangniang is pregnant and naturally does her best first, and the rest can only be eaten by the queen and Zhao Concubine! ”
"Really?"
"Slaves and maids dare not deceive their mothers."
Actually, this is not false, but there are some problems with the order.
The queen is naturally the first one as the mother of the main palace, and Su Youyi is the favorite concubine, that one is even more indispensable, although Concubine Fang also got it, but she can only go to the back.
Concubine Fang herself didn't expect this, and said with satisfaction: "Then send a little to Concubine Yan, so that she can't eat Portuguese grapes and say that Portuguese grapes are sour." ”
The palace maid heard her say that she wanted to give a little to Concubine Yan, thinking that she was thanking Concubine Yan for saving the child in her womb, and she didn't want to listen to the second half of her sentence and had no deep meaning.
Concubine Fang glanced at her with a smile, "In the past, the palace listened to her sour words by her side, but now I send some grapes to block her sour mouth, so as not to make people talk about her protecting the children of the palace, and the palace is still treating her mean." ”
