Hongning Palace.

Fu Xin went to congratulate the concubine early in the morning according to the number of rites, and the second son of the emperor, Hu Cheng, was also in it, the concubine was in excellent spirits, and she was lowering her body and saying something to him kindly, and when she saw Fu Xin coming, she smiled and said to Hu Cheng: "Go over and say hello to Zhang Xiaozhu." ”

I saw Hu Cheng's small figure running over, but he was neither timid nor hidden, and he was very flattering: "Zhang Xiaozhu has a good New Year, I wish you good luck and good health." ”

Fu Xinwaner said softly: "Brother Cheng is so sensible, the mother will have a lot of peace of mind." Airan touched his back, and then stepped forward to salute the concubine.

The concubine smiled without saying a word, hugged her son who came back to her side, tidied up his robe for him with great love, and said, "Follow my father, don't forget what my mother explained." ”

Hu Cheng nodded with wide eyes, and then was taken out by the servants.

"Did you see the beast yesterday?" The concubine said on the one hand, and sat down on the other.

Looking at the departure of the second son of the emperor, Fu Xin thought that such a big event at the banquet must have to be discussed, and said one by one: "Everyone present must have seen it clearly, but the concubine believes that everyone has never seen it." ”

Under the dress of the first day of the new year, the honey-colored makeup brocade jacket Zhai is covered with a big red feather veil and the crane in the otter, the gold grate of pearl and phosphorus combs a complex high bun, and wears a white jade inlaid with Fu Shou hairpin, which is even more graceful and luxurious: "Yes, everyone knows it, but no one knows it, but this palace reminds me of the mother of Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty." ”

Fu Xin's brows moved, and asked, "What the noble concubine Niangniang said is Mrs. Gouyi of the Western Han Dynasty?" ”

The concubine glanced at her appreciatively, and said with a smile: "You are very familiar with history books, no wonder Your Majesty praises you for your intelligence with this palace." ”

Fu Xin only felt that his heart was dull, and it was not a good thing that the edge was too exposed, so he said humbly and calmly: "It is Your Majesty who has praised it falsely, in front of Niangniang, but it is just a dull body." ”

The concubine didn't say no, but said slowly: "Mrs. Gouyi is said to be born unable to spread her fists, and she has been holding it tightly since she was born, and she was not willing to open it until she met Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, not only that, but there was also a jade hook in her fist, so she was favored." ”

Fu Xin raised his eyes and smiled: "I don't believe it if I want to come to Niangniang." ”

The concubine meaningfully held the hairpin on the bun: "They are all ancients thousands of years ago, the history books have not judged, it doesn't matter whether the palace believes or not, the important thing is that for thousands of years, such mysterious tricks to please the emperor have emerged in endlessly, and they have been tried and tested repeatedly." ”

"Niangniang, you mean, that Rui beast is fake?" As soon as these words came out, even Fu Xin's heart was shocked, and even the voice was dragged lightly.

"As long as Your Majesty acknowledges the Rui Beast, it is true, and you have not seen it with your own eyes." The concubine is quite interested: "Most of the time lies or heavenly opportunities are just a thought." ”

Yuan Lang, the personal female official of Hongning Palace, came in at this time with the curtain, followed by a luxurious woman, and even her eyebrows were beaming: "Guifei Niangniang, Mrs. Yongchangbo has arrived." ”

The concubine immediately took Yuan Lang's hand and got up: "Hurry up and welcome the lady in"

After all, the concubine lives in the deep palace, and is not allowed to see her relatives all the year round, suffering from lovesickness, and this decree is still in the concubine when she was the princess of Yong, and gave the title of Yongchangbo.

The Zhao Zhao has extremely strict control over the title and reward, and the most noble prince can also be knighted as a marquis, and the mother family of the prince and concubine can only be demoted to a knighthood, and it is even more difficult to become a duke.

Therefore, there are only nine people in the Zhao Dynasty, and among the twelve meritorious heroes rewarded by Taizu that year, two have died, and one has returned to his hometown.

The weight of the knighthood is self-evident, and it is no wonder that when the emperor wanted to be named Shi Fuzhou's adoptive father, the queen would react suddenly.

"Now that the lady is here, the concubine will retire first." Fu Xin said slowly and retreated from the Hongning Palace.

Today, the three ladies all entered the palace, Mrs. Anqinghou, Mrs. Yongchangbo, and even Lan Bi specially gave her family permission to visit him.

Tang Wan saw that there seemed to be a gloomy look on her eyebrows, thinking that she was touching her heart and missing her family, so she happily explained on the side: "When the master is the same as Ban Jieyu, she is pregnant, you can ask a grace to see Mrs., you have been favored in the palace these days, and I think Mrs. will feel relieved in the house." ”

Fu Xin smiled and shook her head, she was just wondering if one day she would be able to climb to that position, and in this splendid and lively situation, they would meet again as the former monarch and minister.

Kun Dome Hall.

"The concubine's position is vacant, and Ling Gu intends to seal the decree, Your Majesty means this." The queen threw the oracle aside, and outlined the New Year's makeup in the mirror, feeling impetuous.

Luo Qi put away the edict, and a bit of seriousness accumulated on his old face: "The emperor is now going to slowly hand over the matter to Your Highness, why is Your Highness displeased?" ”

She is more than twice as old as the queen, and she is an old slave selected by thousands of people in the Guogong Mansion, following Zheng Qianhao into the palace, and raising points step by step behind her, for fear that when the queen is about to make a mistake, whether it is qualifications or life, she is impeccable.

"But Your Majesty gave good things to the Yin family, and gave Lonely, but he wanted to reward others, how do you say that Lone's heart is not hearty?" The movement outlined by the queen's hand stopped, and her eyes swept to the side.

This young little queen, after all, her mind is shallow, Luo Qi felt deep in her heart, she only said slowly on her face: "Your Highness, calm down and think about it, if the will of this big seal is in the hands of the concubine, how will she use it, who will be sealed, and who will not be sealed." ”

When the queen heard this, her heart calmed down, and she suddenly felt soothed: "Yes, the power is in Lone's hands." ”

Luo Qi said: "The concubine can't be turned over after all, besides, you need to think about the intention behind the emperor, the temptation in the middle." ”

The queen frowned again when she heard this: "What does Your Majesty have to test Lone?" ”

Luo Qi pondered deeply, and gradually stabilized: "The slave maid thinks that the emperor wants to try you, it is a private word, as long as anyone has selfish intentions, they will show traces of doing things." ”

The queen took a deep breath: "He wants to seal it alone, but he can't seal it to contain selfish intentions." ”
