Chapter 721: Retreat to the Imperial Garden

Or Su Youyi is thoughtful everywhere.

Concubine Yan was overjoyed and praised again and again, "In the end, the Queen Mother has been in charge of the government since she became the Queen Mother, unlike those of us who have been spoiled in the harem, and our brains are not good." The Queen Mother is right, everything will be done according to the Queen Mother's wishes! ”

Su Youyi glanced at her, "Don't put a high hat on me, thinking that you can be idle in this way?" ”

Concubine Yan smiled wryly.

Su Youyi sneered, "The emperor hasn't made a queen yet, so I can't do anything about the marriage of these children?" I can't keep myself busy. I don't ask you for anything else, the second prince is your son, I will leave his marriage to you, you have no opinion, right? ”

Concubine Yan opened her mouth, and just wanted to be lazy, Su Youyi had already folded her hands and counted, "I'm going to be much busier than you." The emperor's wedding, the emperor's pro-government ceremony, the two princes went out of the palace to open the mansion, and the marriage of the eldest princess ......"

"And, I'm going to move to another palace."

Concubine Yan hurriedly said: "Move the palace? Is it to leave Kunning Palace to the new queen? But didn't I hear that the emperor let the queen mother continue to live in Kunning Palace? ”

Su Youyi thought of Yuan Zhi's words, and couldn't help laughing, "Your Majesty, that's a child's talk." How can there be an emperor who has a queen and lets the queen mother live in Kunning Palace, is there such a reason in the world? ”

I don't think I've heard of this kind of reasoning.

But......

Concubine Yan waved her hand, "But even if the emperor is in power, don't you care about it at all?" Queen Mother, are you still so young, are you really willing to give up power? ”

Su Youyi glanced at her, smiling rather than smiling.

No wonder the royal family in the past were worried about her taking it all, if she hadn't set up the signboard of Prince Yong, the regent, and delegated power to Yuanzhi everywhere, I don't know how suspicious they would be.

Even harem sisters like Concubine Yan, who have always been close to her, are inevitably suspicious of her, let alone outsiders?

She was calm and asked Concubine Yan, "What kind of right is this?" It's imperial power. As long as it is imperial power, it should belong to the emperor. In the past, I held it in my hand, because the first emperor died early, and no one could entrust him, so I could only watch the emperor. The emperor will turn eighteen after the New Year, and he can take power alone. ”

Concubine Yan couldn't help but sigh when she heard Su Youyi's words.

"I have known the Queen Mother for so many years, and after the eighteenth year of the emperor, I have known the Queen Mother for ten years. In the past ten years, I have not been able to see through the heart of the Queen Mother, and I still dare not say that I understand the Queen Mother. ”

Su Youyi said: "How do you say this? ”

Concubine Yan laughed at herself: "Isn't it? I always knew that the Queen Mother didn't admire power, but I didn't expect the Queen Mother to let go so easily. In fact, the Queen Mother knows that with your skills and ability, if you want to monopolize power, no one in the court is your opponent. ”

Su Youyi laughed when she heard it, "You have lived in the deep palace for a long time, who told you these words?" ”

"Who else is going to tell me?"

Concubine Yan pointed at herself, "I have eyes that can see, besides, the ministers in the court also think like this, I don't think it's wrong." Queen Mother, I have been in the palace for more than ten years, and I have never admired anyone, you are the first and only one. ”

Su Youyi smiled but did not speak.

When she first became the emperor's nobleman, Concubine Yan was the first to look down on her, saying that she was from a humble background and did not deserve to be favored.

Later, it was Concubine Yan who asked her wrist to be subdued, and willingly formed an alliance with her.

Concubine Yan has nothing to hide from her relationship to this day, so Su Youyi said: "I'm not so selfless, I'm just too lazy to care." Besides, the emperor respects me so much, even if I don't take power, will he treat me harshly? ”

"Of course not."

Concubine Yan said: "It's just this Kunning Palace...... Alas, it's a pity. If the queen mother moves out, will the emperor live for the new queen? In fact, there have been examples since the first emperor, and the queen does not have to live in Kunning Palace. ”

She is talking about Queen Wang, this example has been told to Su Youyi by countless people.

But Su Youyi was determined to move the palace.

She said: "Not to mention that no matter whether the queen lives in Kunning Palace or not, I have to move, and I would rather Kunning Palace be empty than I can occupy it." Besides, the example of the first emperor is unusual, the queen is the successor, and her background is also low, so she has no weight in the heart of the first emperor, you know this. ”

"I hope that the new queen will live in Kunning Palace, but I don't want her to be separated from the emperor and his wife. They are the original husband and wife, and they should have grown old, not to mention that the queen is the young lady of the Zhou family, and the mother's family is powerful and cannot be easily neglected, which makes people think that the emperor has no mercy for the old minister. ”

Concubine Yan suddenly felt that her face was hateful and very ashamed.

She was on Su Youyi's side, thinking only about how to be the best for Su Youyi, and thinking that the queen was the new daughter-in-law when she entered the door, how could the daughter-in-law and mother-in-law fight in the ring?

The queen is in power, and Su Youyi, the queen mother, is bound to lose power.

Unexpectedly, Su Youyi didn't care at all, Yuanzhi didn't ask her to move the palace, she had to take the initiative to move, Concubine Yan felt that she was really ashamed, there was a gap between her and Su Youyi.

It's strange that someone can be the queen mother, and she will be a noble concubine if she dies!

Concubine Yan was convinced, "Since the Queen Mother has this thought, it is better to let people prepare Cining Palace as soon as possible!" Although it has been renovated once in the past, it has been several years. What's more, the Queen Mother must not be wronged if she wants to live in it, and she must be well arranged. ”

"Why bother?"

Su Youyi said lightly: "Actually, there is something I just want to ask you and Sister Chun their opinions, since today's talk is here, I will tell you in advance." ”

"What's the matter?"

Su Youyi paused and said slowly, "What do you think of my newly renovated courtyard?" It has doubled in size compared to before, and the children can come and stay, and it is not crowded at all. ”

Concubine Yan looked in the direction of her finger and nodded, "Yes, isn't this specially expanded so that the Queen Mother can live comfortably in the Imperial Garden?" How did the Queen Mother talk about this, is it ......?"

Concubine Yan was startled and gently covered her mouth, "What does the Queen Mother mean, does she want to retreat to the Imperial Garden?!" ”

"What are you so excited about? It's just asking. ”

Su Youyi pushed the tea to her, motioned for her to take a sip of tea, and then said, "I can see the scenery of the Imperial Garden by myself, and I can also stay away from the rights and wrongs in the palace, if I am interested, it is also convenient to go to the people." But I don't restrain you, if you want to live in the Imperial Garden with me, or continue to live in Shoukang Palace, I don't force it. ”

"I don't mean that, I don't know others, my sister and I must follow the Queen Mother, and we will live wherever the Queen Mother goes. Just quit the palace directly, wouldn't it be bad? If the queen mother leaves the palace directly, what if there is chaos in the harem......"
