At this moment, Kunning Palace is bustling.

Su Qing and Su Zhiming were there, several little princes came out to salute, the sixth prince and the seventh prince pounced on Su Zhiming, Su Zhiming was very happy.

Su Youyi said with a smile: "Little boys still like to play with big boys, I know it since I was still in Lingnan." ”

At that time, many of the children her father taught naturally liked Ji Yushen.

Fortunately, she usually spends more time with the children, and she is knowledgeable and smart, so the children worship her even more.

In the past, Yuanzhi was like this when he was young, and he liked to play with Ji Yushen.

Su Zhiming couldn't help but say, "It would be nice if my wife could give birth to such a cute boy." ”

"My aunt will give birth to a boy."

The sixth prince muttered, Su Zhiming was stunned when he heard it, and then couldn't help but smile so much that the corners of his mouth grinned to his ears.

Su Youyi smiled and shook her head, "Did you hear that?" People are small and big. Okay, Chunhua, let the nurse take them down, we still have business to discuss. ”

When the children and nurses went out, the hall was quiet, and Su Youyi slowly took a sip of tea.

Su Zhiming looked outside the palace, "The Queen Mother is really scared to death today, although I got a message yesterday and knew what would happen today, I didn't know that it was so serious." The Queen Mother is resolute today, and the court must be quiet for a while. ”

"It's good to be quiet."

Su Youyi said with a smile: "It would be a good thing if they could quietly shift their minds from corruption to how to solve the drought in the northwest." ”

Su Qingdao: "The Queen Mother can rest assured, she shocked the court in one fell swoop today, and the Queen Mother has already established her authority." It is better to follow the example of the previous Empress Dowager and make this a regular practice. ”

Listen to politics with a curtain?

Su Youyi was a little surprised, "You mean to let me go to court every day like the emperor?" ”

"yes."

Su Qingdao: "If you miss this time, if you want to put forward it in the future, there will definitely be ministers who oppose it, this is the best time, what does the Queen Mother think?" ”

Su Youyi waved her hand, "No, no, whether they oppose it or not, it's my own unwillingness." ”

"Why is the Queen Mother unwilling?"

Su Youyi said: "I just helped the emperor take care of the affairs of the previous dynasty, and I don't want to overstep my responsibilities, and when the emperor is older in two years, he can take charge of the affairs alone, and he can be allowed to govern alone." Besides, the emperor is a young man, and he is not like a man. Zu ascended the throne at the age of eight and needed the Empress Dowager to listen to the government. ”

"What do eight-year-olds understand? Naturally, everything is decided by the Empress Dowager. But today's emperor is different, he has been the prince of the prison country, and he is smart by nature, which I can rest assured. ”

Su Qing frowned slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Of course, he knew that Yuan Zhi's talent was enough to reassure, but didn't Su Youyi want to do something else, just care about the peace and stability of the court?

He glanced at Su Zhiming.

Su Zhiming vaguely sensed what he meant, his eyes dodged for a moment, and he didn't answer his words.

Su Qing thought about it, and had no choice but to say to herself: "Doesn't the Queen Mother want to hold the power of the court in her hands, and only be willing to hover in the harem?" ”

In his opinion, Su Youyi is a talented person, and she was wronged in the harem.

Su Youyi finally understood what he meant.

Just as he was about to answer, he suddenly heard Chunhua come in and say, "Queen Mother, the princess took off her hairpin and knelt outside the palace gate, saying that she was a saint and came to ask for sin." ”

"Please?"

Su Youyi smiled, "What crime did she ask for?" ”

Chunhua said: "I think it's because of the matter of the former Wei Yuanhou." ”

"Wei Yuanhou's matter is not her turn to plead guilty."

Su Youyi said lightly: "I think she is afraid that Wei Yuanhou will be punished and affect her, so she will come to Kunning Palace." But why don't you go to the Qianqing Palace? ”

Chunhua looked at the two foreign ministers, "It's from the Qianqing Palace." It is said that he knelt outside the Qianqing Palace to ask the emperor for his guilt, but somehow, he suddenly came to our Kunning Palace again. ”

Seeing this, Su Zhiming got up, "Queen Mother, since you have harem affairs to deal with, Master Su and I will leave the palace first, right?" ”

Su Qing didn't want to leave yet.

Su Youyi said quickly: "Okay, Duofu, send the two adults out." ”

Su Qing had no choice but to get up and say goodbye, and the two walked outside the Kunning Palace, and saw that the concubine was dressed in plain clothes, without any hairpin rings on her head, and she looked haggard without fat powder.

A few days ago, they met Concubine Yu outside the Qianqing Palace, but they didn't expect to meet again today.

It's the same few of them, but the difference is that the tortoise concubine is even more embarrassed than last time.

Seeing Su Qing and Su Zhiming coming out, she just glanced up, did not speak, and knelt down aggrieved.

Su Zhiming felt embarrassed, the appearance of the tortoise concubine, I didn't want to see anyone.

He wanted to leave quietly, but he didn't want Su Qing to take the initiative to say hello to Concubine Jue, "Concubine Jue, what a coincidence, I met again." ”

Su Zhiming: "......"

He had no choice but to stop and salute the princess, "I've seen the princess." ”

Concubine Jue raised her eyes and saw Su Qing's smug face, a little disdainful, it turned out that any loyal minister and Qing official would also show this kind of villainous expression.

It's just because she said a few unpleasant words to him outside the Qianqing Palace a few days ago.

"Lord Su."

She replied casually, not intending to say more.

Su Qingdao said: "Every time Concubine Jue meets, she is outside the palace gate, either outside the Qianqing Palace gate or outside the Kunning Palace gate. I wonder what you're kneeling here for? ”

"Can't you see?"

The concubine's voice was cold, "Have you never seen a hairpin to be punished?" ”

"It's true that I've never seen it."

Su Qing smiled, "Thank you Taifei for opening my eyes today, in this case, I have something to persuade Taifei to talk about, it's not worth talking about it." ”

Concubine Yu was a little suspicious, thinking that the situation could not be worse, so she said, "What words? ”

Su Zhiming looked at Su Qing with doubts in his heart.

Su Qing smiled and bent slightly. body, "Concubine Jue has always regarded herself as the daughter of the Marquis of Weiyuan, and has been domineering in the palace for many years. Have you ever thought that it is your proud identity that restricts you, the concubines and Xu Guiren, who were born in small families, are more faceless than you, the concubine, haven't you thought about why? ”

"The first emperor didn't like the women of the big family, and the queen mother was not from the big family. Do you think that the emperor is from Empress Jiang, does it mean that he will like people from big families? ”

"He was raised by the first emperor and the queen mother since he was a child, and every bit of it is a thought that is integrated into the bone marrow, and he can't change it at all. Concubine Tortoise, don't you think it's ridiculous that you are self-conscious, but in fact you are misleading? ”

The princess looked up and stared at him hatefully.

And Su Qing had already finished what he wanted to say, he dusted off the corners of his official uniform, and walked forward without looking back.

The posture is particularly proud.

Su Zhiming frowned, helplessly saluted Concubine Jue, and then followed Su Qing's footsteps as soon as possible.
