Chapter 29: Calculation

Sizhen raised her head, bit her lip, and said softly, "Queen Mother, I have something important to tell you. ”

She told her how the palace maid invited her to Concubine Duanshun yesterday, what Concubine Duanshun said, what she did, and then met Prince Shuosai of Chengze from beginning to end......

Seeing that the Queen Mother didn't speak, Sizhen said eagerly: "Queen Mother, I don't know what's wrong here, it's just that what Prince Chengze said is very scary, I'm so scared of ......."

Before she finished speaking, she raised her face, held back her tears, and looked at the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother listened patiently to Sizhen's narration, and from her expression, she couldn't tell what she thought about these things, but there was an occasional hint of anger in her eyes, which showed that her heart was not calm.

After Sizhen finished speaking, she asked softly: "Don't be afraid, you just have to rest assured, there is a mourning family, the mourning family is the master for you, since you are the daughter of the mourning family, how can anyone bully you!" You just said that the person who invited you to the side hall is the palace maid of Concubine Duanshun, if you see someone, can you recognize it? ”

"It should be okay, the palace maid has a small red mole here, and she looks beautiful." Sizhen pointed to the left corner of his mouth and said.

After thinking about it, she said half worried and half ashamed: "That, the person who stopped me is Prince Chengze, he said...... He said he wanted me to go to his house...... It doesn't sound like a good thing...... However, he is a prince......"

When the Queen Mother heard this, she sneered: "Hmph, what's wrong with Prince Chengze?" Sizhen, you remember, now you are the daughter of the mourning family, and you are Heshuo Gege, in this world, there are really few people who can insult you at will, don't worry, there is a queen mother. ”

"Queen Mother-" Sizhen was relieved at this time, and happily called the Queen Mother again, snuggled in her arms, with a look of admiration.

The Queen Mother smiled with satisfaction, patted Sizhen's hand gently, and then said with a somewhat solemn expression: "Actually, the mourning family heard Concubine Duanshun talk about this in the morning......

Before the Queen Mother finished speaking, she heard a little eunuch shouting in a long voice: "The slave asks the emperor for peace-"

In a blink of an eye, I saw Fu Lin open the curtain and break in, and said angrily: "Queen Mother, I want to abolish the queen...... Ah Zhen, why are you here? ”

Seeing Kong Sizhen, Fu Lin's tone softened a lot, but he still couldn't hide his anger.

Sizhen hurriedly stood up and said goodbye to Fulin.

The Queen Mother said unhurriedly: "What's the matter? What made the emperor so angry? If you have something to say, speak slowly, don't damage your own body. ”

Fu Lin sat on the chair, looked at Sizhen, and did not speak.

"It seems that the emperor also heard about yesterday's incident. Don't avoid Sizhen, the mourning family just heard her say what happened yesterday, does the emperor want to listen to it too? The Queen Mother's hand tapped on the table for a while, and somehow, Sizhen, who was standing aside, broke out in a cold sweat.

Sizhen thought: Look at this, yesterday's incident was not just as simple as she saw, but, how could it be related to the queen?

Seeing Fu Lin's calm face, the Queen Mother said again: "The queen is the niece of the mourning family and the daughter-in-law of the mourning family, but the emperor is the son of the mourning family, no matter what, you should believe that the mourning family will not help any of them, and everything the mourning family does is for the emperor!" The emperor should listen to Ah Zhen first......"

Seeing that Fulin nodded and looked at the Queen Mother's expression, Sizhen had no choice but to tell yesterday's events from the beginning again, and after speaking, she looked at the Queen Mother and the Emperor and said, "...... At that time, the courtiers were still strange in their hearts, how did Duanshun Concubine Niangniang know that the courtiers could dance with swords? ”

Fu Lin solved her doubts: "...... It was the queen who told her, and the palace maid who had a cinnabar mole on the corner of her mouth was also ordered by the queen to arrange for you to go to the side hall, and the palace maid told Yuhua that the queen said, you are good at sword dancing, and let her help you become famous in front of others, so as to show my importance to Hanchen, so she will personally use the pipa to help you accompany you......"

He looked at the Queen Mother: "I have checked, that palace maid is indeed from Kunning Palace, and she has died in the well last night." Also, when the fifth brother walked to that road, it was the palace maid who invited him over, saying that the queen had something to look for him......"

Saying that, Fu Lin's face showed ruthlessness and determination, "Queen Mother, she Meng Guqing is just extravagant and wasteful on weekdays, and she is so jealous, I can't see that there are other women around me, last year, the Li Wusu clan was born because of her, and this time I want to kill two birds with one stone, and count Yuhua and Ah Zhen in it...... I don't want such a queen. ”

The queen mother was silent, if it was only the palace maid, it could be said that someone framed the queen, after all, the people in the Kunning Palace could also be running errands for other people, but now Shuo Sai also said the same, plus the palace maid is dead, there is no proof of death, if the emperor insists on putting this matter on the queen's head, it is really difficult to do!

Sizhen, who was sitting quietly listening to the conversation between their mother and son, opened her mouth gently: "Your Majesty, this thing is very strange, and the courtiers feel that the queen mother is not that kind of person." ”

Fu Lin looked at Sizhen unhappily: "You know, what do you know?" She has always been unable to tolerate other women approaching my side, and this is not the first time......" Seeing Sizhen's somewhat injured expression, his face eased a little, "You don't understand these things, the people in the harem, in order to compete for favor, what means can't be used......"

"In the harem, the queen is not the ......only one who wants to win the emperor's favor," Sizhen muttered, "Perhaps, someone wants to frame the queen and seek the throne?" ”

Seeing Fu Lin looking at herself in surprise, Sizhen was a little embarrassed, she was a girl who had not yet reached the end of her life, it was indeed a little strange to say anything about pampering, but thinking of the queen's lonely expression at that time, she really couldn't keep her mouth shut.

The Queen Mother sighed: "Your Majesty, why don't you understand the truth that even Azhen, a child, understands?" This thing may or may not have been done by the queen, but now that there is no proof of it, it will be unfair to her if you want to put the matter on her head. The mourning family knows that you have a knot, but you can't blame everything on the queen's head! ”

"This time there is no proof of death, but what about last year? Last year, Wusu was pushed down by her and fell, so that she had a miscarriage, what to say? The queen mother always asks me to take care of the overall situation, but have you ever thought that a jealous woman like her can be in the middle palace without the generosity of the mother of a country at all? Fu Lin said unrelentingly.

"Wusu's miscarriage was an accident, she spoke against the queen at the time, and the queen pushed her angrily, who would have thought that she would have a miscarriage? The queen didn't know she was pregnant with a child...... Why is the emperor still talking about this! ”
