Chapter 60: An Awkward Situation
I don't know what has been provoked in the palace these days, wave after wave, and the concubines in the palace, especially the high-ranking concubines, have had accidents one after another.
Xu Liren sat in Chuxiu Palace every day and listened to the news from Pearl, only feeling frightened.
"It's not good!"
It was such a familiar opening remark again, Xu Liren slapped the tea cup on the table, quite depressed.
"What's wrong, this palace is fine, who happened today?"
Pearl shrunk her neck, a little frightened.
The people who have accidents are Niangniang's usual rivals, why is Niangniang not happy at all?
"It's Xu Cairen, she didn't know what she did today, she fought with Li Zhaoyi, and her face was scratched. Li Zhaoyi's neck was also scratched a lot, and now everyone in the palace is running there to see the excitement. ”
And so it is again!
Xu Liren touched the table, panicked.
A few days ago, Concubine De somehow got into a fight with Concubine Liu.
Concubine Gao De has the support of the queen mother, she has always relied on her temperament, and has never let others, Liu Guifei has been favored in the harem for many years, and even the queen has to avoid three points.
Although they had some dirty things before, they had the queen mother on the side to adjust, and the two really didn't want the queen to sit on the fisherman's profits, so they were okay with face, and it was the first time that they pinched with such fanfare.
This matter still originated from the second princess Gu Xiao and the second prince Gu De.
Gu Xiao, like her mother, has always been arrogant and domineering, she can't see anyone else in her eyes, she only sees Gu Hui so favored by the emperor, but she still fights with her every day, and she can't even do face-saving projects, which can be seen.
Some time ago, on Liu Guifei's birthday, Xu Liren did not go because she was pregnant, but Gu Hui went with a hairpin.
Xu Liren was still worried about Gu Hui's trouble, but she didn't expect her to be very well-behaved that day, but the second princess and the second prince had a quarrel.
Both of them love their children, and they refuse to admit defeat in this matter, so they broke up unhappily, and that night, something happened in the palaces of both sides.
Now they also put each other on the other side from time to time, making it clear that this matter will not pass so easily.
Xu Liren knocked on the table with her hand, thought carefully, and suddenly raised her head and asked.
"Where is the princess today?"
Pearl snorted in surprise.
[Why did you suddenly ask about the princess?] 】
"At this hour, the princess must be studying in the palace."
Xu Liren frowned.
"Some time ago, I asked you to pay attention to them in the warm spring, but there is any movement?"
Speaking of this, Pearl felt weird, except for occasionally asking about the princess's diet and daily life, she always didn't care what the princess did on weekdays, let alone let her spy on the people around the princess.
Despite the doubts in his heart, he still answered truthfully.
"The four big maids around the princess have been doing their duty, and they have not left the princess's side, nor have they seen any strange people, and the princess's little maids and slaves have also paid attention to it, everything is normal."
Everything is normal?
Could it be that this child really listened to her and didn't get involved...... But if this series of strange things is not man-made...... Is it really a coincidence?
Did she wronged this child?
It's really weird in the palace lately......
Even Concubine Ye Xian's palace had a palace maid who climbed into bed, and she was so angry that Concubine Xian, who had always shown her virtuous and gentleness, directly embarrassed the palace maid in front of outsiders.
Xu Liren also arranged for people to do some actions, but there was no reason to be bullied to the head and endure it, but her people didn't do anything, and many concubines had accidents one after another.
At this time, the same conversation was going on in the Qinzheng Palace.
"Reading in the palace every day?"
Gu Zhi was a little surprised, this child has been extremely obedient since her mother was pregnant, but to say that this child is willing to study in the palace every day, Gu Zhi doesn't believe it.
Su Lide bent over and respectfully reported.
"Back to the emperor, Princess Changning did study in the palace during this time, and the slave also checked the people around her, and there was nothing abnormal, and she did not have any contact with anyone in the palace......
But when it comes to making some strange things, I tell the cook to boil fish bladders every day, and I follow up from time to time, and I care very much about it. ”
"Fish bladder... I don't know if Ling'er has done it. ”
As a qualified father, Gu Zhi believes that he has the obligation to care about the daily life and psychological state of his children, so he also arranged manpower around the prince and Gu Hui.
Of course, only the two of them have such a "special" care, after all, the emperor has every opportunity, and most of the children in the palace are a few years old little radish heads.
It's good to care about the prince, at least he is the prince of the country, but Princess Changning ...... Su Lide thinks that there is no other use except to satisfy the emperor's strange exploration spirit.
Gu Zhi knew that the crown prince had personally made a seal for the queen, and because he was not the first to receive a gift from the prince, he felt a little disappointed.
The queen's actions Gu Zhi also knew about it, and he could only remain silent about it.
He is a father and a monarch, and the crown prince is the prince of the country, and the queen's approach is not wrong for the prince in the long run.
But Gu Hui can care about his brother's mood and want to find a way to repair it, and Gu Zhi is quite pleased with this approach.
[Sure enough, the daughter is the warm-hearted little padded jacket. 】
Thinking that Gu Hui usually had something, the first one was to bring it to his father, and even Concubine Ming was behind him, Gu Zhi was very proud.
Gu Hui usually values Concubine Ming so much, and he will only be more respectful and respectful to his father.
Thinking of this, Gu Zhi's heart softened a little.
"Alas, I wronged this girl."
She is a little doll, what ability can she do to stir up chaos in the palace?
Gu Zhi couldn't help but feel ashamed of his suspicions, but he also felt that this daughter was blessed.
It's just a whim to catch some fish, so I fished out a bottle that was hidden so deep, if I didn't find it at this time, it would be too late when Concubine Ming was pregnant in July and August.
Could it be ...... Gu Hui is really a little lucky star from heaven, a treasure specially given to him by God.
Thinking that during this period of time, the domestic wind and rain were smooth, and Dasheng's rule slowly stabilized, and a number of policies were implemented very smoothly, and even the cavalry of Beirong who was about to move also stabilized.
Gu Zhi was in a very happy mood and laughed.
"Good! My daughter is indeed a lucky star, Su Lide, you go to the treasury to find some fun things, and later go to Chuxiu Palace to reward Princess Changning...... By the way, I will find some bird's nest ginseng for Concubine Ming, she was frightened during this time, and I will go to Chuxiu Palace tonight. ”
Regarding the emperor's sudden change of face, Su Lide is obviously accustomed to it, anyway, the emperor's brain supplement is not a day or two.
He bowed and bowed respectfully.
[Author's digression]: Liu Guifei: Your Majesty, the third princess is far from the simple and kind princess in your impression, she has changed a long time ago.
Gu Hui stretched out his hand and opened his big eyes: Father~
Gu Zhi: Nonsense, Ling'er is my little lucky star, and Hugh wants to wronged this child.
Because of jealousy~, I will feel sad~
