Chapter 29: Like a Prophet
On the palace road, Gu Hui covered his mouth with his hand and yawned again and again.
Sure enough, she still overestimated herself, and relied on her experience of staying up late in her previous life to act recklessly.
Now this body is too small, it is the age of lethargy, and she has always had a regular schedule and rest, she stayed up late last night, she almost couldn't get up this morning, and she was still coaxed up by Xu Zhaoyuan.
The harem is divided into six palaces, east and west, with six main palaces in each direction, as well as various small attics.
As the mother of a country, the queen lives in the Kunning Hall of the East Palace. The decoration of Kunning Hall is very in line with the identity of the mother of the country, simple atmosphere, graceful and prosperous, but there are clusters of peonies in the palace that only the queen and the queen mother can use to grow wantonly, a scene for Kunning Palace.
It can be seen that the flowers are often tended to and bloom luxuriantly.
"See Xu Zhaoyuan, the third princess, the queen mother is dressing up at this time, please wait for a while."
Xu Zhaoyuan took Gu Hui's hand and nodded with a very good temper.
"The scenery of this Kunning Palace is very beautiful, and the concubines and others can enjoy it by themselves."
The queen's personal maid Biyun nodded with a smile and retreated.
Because Gu Hui was lying in bed in the morning, there were already many people standing when they came, and the concubines with low ranks didn't dare to be late, so they came early.
Xu Zhaoyuan even saw the figure of Concubine Gao De.
"Yo~ Xu Zhaoyuan has always been diligent and thrifty, why did she come so late today."
Xu Zhaoyuan looked at the noble concubine, lowered her head and saluted expressionlessly.
"Concubines, see Concubine De Niangniang."
"Excuse me, this is the third princess, the child feels a lot, Xu Zhaoyuan, you have to take good care of the third princess, she is now our emperor's ***, if you want me to say, what does it matter to ask the queen for peace? The princess sleeps well is the most important thing. ”
Xu Zhaoyuan smiled faintly in the face of her obvious difficulties.
Concubine De is the niece of the Queen Mother, she has always been arrogant and domineering, and she has never suffered anything in the palace because of the care of the Queen Mother over the years, so she said that this IQ is fading day by day.
There is no clever way to sow discord.
"Thank you Concubine De for your care, the third princess's heart for the queen is the same as that of the second prince, how can she delay the queen mother because of the trivial matter of sleeping."
Who in this palace doesn't know that Concubine Gao De is arrogant and domineering, and she is as good as Concubine Liu, and the second prince is as unpopular as his mother.
It's just the first day of the new month and the fifteenth day of the month, and the second prince doesn't come often, and every time the excuse is that he is busy with his studies, but he has been busy with his studies for so long, but he has not been good at all.
"You!"
Reacting to being choked by Xu Zhaoyuan, an "honest man" who has never been good at words, Concubine De's eyes widened in surprise.
snorted coldly, and looked at Xu Zhaoyuan coldly.
"You're good!"
With a favored daughter, do you think you can compete with her? It's just a princess, what kind of climate can it become.
Xu Zhaoyuan was naturally not easily frightened by her, and took a step back with a faint smile, turning her head to enjoy the scenery.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the queen has finished dressing and dressing, please move to the main hall to drink tea."
Gu Hui was protected by Xu Zhaoyuan behind him, looking at this realistic palace fight.
Her eyes were fixed on Biyun.
It was a coincidence that Biyun appeared, the quarrel was almost over, and the people came out after they were offended, and the queen had a good means.
Empress Li and Gu Hui did not change much in their impressions, wearing a gorgeous palace dress in bright red, combing their delicate hairstyles, painting delicate makeup, and their gait was elegant, and they held the palace maid's hand and walked to the seat without hurrying.
"See the Queen."
Empress Li glanced around, a hint of clarity flashed in her eyes, and then she raised her hands.
"No rudeness!"
Concubine Gao De didn't wait for the queen to ask, and took the initiative to get up and salute.
"The queen mother, the second prince has been busy with his homework recently, and the concubine really can't bear to disturb him, the concubine thinks that the queen mother has always been benevolent, and probably can't bear it, so she didn't call the second prince over, and asked the queen to forgive her sins."
Listening to Concubine Gao De's words, a trace of disgust flashed in the queen's eyes, but she still maintained the smile on the corner of her mouth, with a faint hint of mockery.
"What's the matter? De'er is still young, just to ask for peace in the palace, it doesn't matter if you don't come, it's still the most important thing to study! ”
Concubine De naturally knew that the queen had always been hypocritical, and she was afraid of her aunt's punishment, how could she really blame her? Now it's just to save face, and I don't want to be tongue-in-cheek.
Concubine Gao De knew in her heart that it was not appropriate for the second prince to do this often, but this child seemed to be stubborn, and she couldn't move, and she subconsciously didn't want her child to ask her for peace.
Even if the queen is the titular queen mother.
Listening to the thorny words between the harem women, Gu Hui's eyes widened excitedly and looked at it with interest.
This is also a pastime for her in the harem.
Usually, Gu Hui has always stayed out of the matter and been an audience, but today someone burned the fire on her body.
"If you want the concubine to say that the third princess is getting more and more cute, even the concubine is very happy to look at it, no wonder the emperor regards her as the tip of his heart, and even takes it with him when he goes out of the palace to play, if I have such a lovely daughter, I can't wait to hold it to the sky."
Everyone's eyes looked over, but Gu Hui innocently opened his eyes wide, looking ignorant.
It's just that she is young now, and she can pretend to be innocent for a few more years.
"Thank you Zhaoyi for your care, the emperor loves Zhaoyi, if you work hard, you will definitely have children, isn't it more joyful to give birth to a daughter to raise?"
It has always been a pain in Xu Zhaoyi's heart to be childless after entering the palace for many years, but now that she was suddenly poked out, her face couldn't help but turn dark.
Xu Zhaoyuan didn't seem to notice that there was anything wrong with what she said, she just smiled gently.
The concubines next to her are willing to watch the excitement, this Xu Zhaoyi is quite pampered, usually very broken-mouthed, many people have been buried by her, and she can only endure it because of her high position and the emperor's favor.
Especially some low-ranking concubines, now seeing that Xu Zhaoyi has been buried, they are quite happy.
At the same time, everyone was puzzled, although Xu Zhaoyuan was born noble, his father and brother had real power in the court, but he always had a good temper, and he was a transparent person in the palace most of the time.
Usually, even if someone takes advantage of her a little bit, they all laugh it off, how can they be so aggressive today?
Is it really that her daughter is favored, so she is petted?
"Xu Zhaoyuan is right, everyone is a concubine, and they should be in the same breath, so as to serve the emperor and spread the branches for the royal family!"
"Yes, follow the teachings of the Queen."
Gu Hui was still sitting in his seat ignorantly because he was young, but he sighed in his heart.
The queen is really a master of water.
has been sitting upright and listening to the concubines bickering, waiting for everyone to say almost before speaking, this is really amazing with the ability of thin mud.
[Author's digression]: As a queen, you must have a wide heart and a fat body, and have a unique water serving technology.
