"This is even more childish, how many times did your mother entrust the ladies to beg the mourning family to let you enter the palace? How many days will you have to regret it? ”

"Who let His Majesty bully Hui Shan? Hui Shan doesn't follow, Hui Shan wants to tell her father that Hui Shan wants to go back to the palace! ”

Before the queen mother could say a word of 'nonsense', Zhou Yukou really couldn't bear her inner thoughts, and said directly: "Hitting is a kiss, that's love, the emperor is close to you before he beats you, the palace wants the emperor to do it, but the emperor may not be willing!" ”

After saying this, he threw all the dried fruits in his hand into the fruit bowl, stood up and walked to Concubine Zhen's side, and took a closer look at the place where the emperor had slapped him.

Then he said meaningfully: "There is no mark anymore, it can be seen that the emperor is not willing to really do anything to Concubine Zhen, the emperor must be angry with Concubine Zhen, right?" What did Concubine Zhen do to make the emperor angry? ”

Concubine Zhen was 'instructed' by Zhou Yukou, raised her head, stared at her big teary eyes, and said aggrievedly: "Queen Mother, Hui Shan is the daughter of the prince and the county lord of the imperial court, and now she is a slave-born**, Hui Shan can't swallow this breath." ”

"Speaking of which, does Concubine Zhen think that the emperor beat you, or does she think that her position is not as high as that of Concubine Wu?" Zhou Yukou saw blood for a while, and asked directly about the core place of Concubine Zhen.

Concubine Zhen pouted and covered her face. The place where he was slapped by the emperor is no longer painful, but the heart that has been trampled by Bilian is still stained with blood.

"Hui Shan doesn't want to be subservient to Wu Guifei!" Concubine Zhen struggled for a long time and said what she really thought in her heart.

Zhou Yukou pinched a few more dried fruits with great interest, put one in her mouth, and the sound of chewing 'rattling' was mixed with her meaningful words.

"Queen Mother, if you want to say that Concubine Zhen is the daughter of the prince, she also deserves the position of a noble concubine."

Concubine Zhen looked at Zhou Yukou gratefully, and couldn't wait to rush over and kiss her pink face fiercely.

But it was only a short moment, Concubine Zhen stared at the Queen Mother pitifully and begged: "Queen Mother, Sister Jiahui has become the queen, Sister Yukou is now a concubine, Huishan has been in the palace for half a year, and she is only a concubine." ”

Zhou Yukou originally thought that the position of a noble concubine would be able to send the concubine, but she didn't expect that the concubine would actually set her sights on the throne of the queen and the concubine.

The queen mother didn't need to think about it, the meaning of Concubine Zhen's words was that her position was too low.

"The more I talk about it, the more unbelievable it becomes, the queen and the concubine followed the emperor into the palace from the palace, this honor, the concubine can't be respected, understand?"

The Queen Mother rebuked Concubine Zhen with words slightly, and Concubine Zhen lowered her eyebrows and leaned in front of the Queen Mother and said, "Queen Mother, Hui Shan is not disrespectful to the two sisters, Hui Shan is just a little unbalanced in her heart." ”

Zhou Yukou wanted to help Concubine Zhen at first, but after hearing Concubine Zhen's ambitions, she didn't bother to get into trouble, so she only said lightly: "Then what should I do, so that Concubine Zhen's sister can balance?" ”

Concubine Zhen didn't take Zhou Yukou's words, but said coquettishly at the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, Hui Shan doesn't want any prominent position." ”

The Queen Mother has seen too many people who want to be captured, so she will never open her mouth, waiting for Concubine Zhen to explain her words clearly.

Zhou Yukou couldn't hold back her temperament, and said in vain: "Since Concubine Zhen didn't come to ask for the queen mother's position, what does it mean?" ”

Concubine Zhen didn't look at Zhou Yukou, and said to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, Huishan is really not for herself. ”

The Queen Mother didn't even raise her eyes, but Zhou Yukou used her own eyes to look at Concubine Zhen interestingly, waiting for Concubine Zhen to tell her own play, what was it for?

"The Queen Mother, Hui Shan's father is the sworn brother of the first emperor of Wuzhao, after the death of the first emperor, his father has been depressed, if it is not for the fear that the queen mother's orphans and widows will be bullied, my father is eager to follow the first emperor."

The Queen Mother finally turned her gaze to Concubine Zhen and examined Concubine Zhen's heart with a gentle look.

"When the first emperor was alive, Prince Yi made great contributions to the imperial court."

Concubine Zhen couldn't hear the meaning of the Queen Mother's words, and continued: "Queen Mother, Hui Shan can not have any position, but Hui Shan is the daughter of her father, and Hui Shan's position is too humble, which will only make people outside the palace think that the Queen Mother does not pay attention to her father. ”

Only then did Zhou Yukou understand that Concubine Zhen did not want to be promoted to a high position, but wanted to capture the old and indulge, so that the Queen Mother could not refute and refuse.

The Queen Mother quietly looked at the messy hair of Concubine Zhen's sideburns, looked at Concubine Zhen kindly and said: "Prince Yi has followed the mourning family and the emperor in the past few years, and has worked hard and made great achievements. ”

Concubine Zhen listened to the Queen Mother's words, and cried excitedly in the Queen Mother's arms.

"Queen Mother, if it weren't for Concubine Wu slapping Hui Shan, Hui Shan would never come over to cause chaos for the Queen Mother, Hui Shan is really aggrieved, so she can only let the Queen Mother support Hui Shan!"

The Queen Mother stroked Concubine Zhen's bun and comforted: "Good boy, there is an old woman from the mourning family, and you will not be wronged." ”

The Queen Mother raised her head and said to Gonggong Wei: "Concubine Wu slapped the precious concubine for no reason, fined her for three months, and thought about it behind closed doors. ”

Concubine Zhen was still crying in the arms of the Queen Mother, and when she heard that the Queen Mother not only made herself a precious concubine, but also personally punished Concubine Wu, she felt more comfortable.

"Hui Shan thanks the Queen Mother, with the Queen Mother giving Hui Shan justice, Hui Shan no longer feels wronged."

The Queen Mother sent the precious concubine, and then let Zhou Yukou disperse. In the Cining Palace at noon, there was not much heat, and Gonggong Wei opened the windows of the East Warm Pavilion, and then put down the fine and dense blue curtains.

The Queen Mother leaned on the recliner, Father-in-law Wei stepped on the pedal of the wind wheel, and the two talked leisurely.

Recently, there have been a lot of variables in the palace, and Gonggong Wei saw that the Queen Mother was already drowsy, so he stopped talking. took a thin silk quilt and put it on the queen mother.

Then he called a little maid to step on the wind wheel pedal in the warm pavilion, and Grandpa Wei himself lay down on the bench at the entrance of the main hall to rest.

The precious concubine left happily and returned to her palace, where the head of the court office had received a report and waited respectfully.

At first glance, when he saw the precious concubine coming back, he rushed over with the wind and rain, and happily stretched out his orchid finger and said in a strange manner: "Congratulations to Niangniang, congratulations to Niangniang." ”

The sudden fluttering made the precious concubine a little trance-like, but she still smiled like a flower with joy.

"Mr. Cao, what kind of wind blew you here?"

Gonggong Cao, the head of the court, squinted his small sesame eyes, looked like a thief's eyebrows, and said flatteringly: "Niangniang has just been promoted to a noble concubine, isn't the slave so busy that he has to rush over to congratulate Niangniang!" ”

The precious concubine endured it with pride, and suddenly flattered her like a night of spring breeze, the corners of her arrogant little mouth rose, and she said happily: "If you can have this filial piety, the father of this palace will definitely not treat you badly." ”

Gonggong Cao bowed his head and took over and said: "Niangniang, the slave can have today, it all depends on Prince Yi to support the slave behind his back, Niangniang can have today's joy, and the slave is happy in his heart!" ”

"You and the father of this palace are old acquaintances, and this palace has already entered the palace, and it is also thanks to you that you have traveled in many ways."

"Niangniang is serious, it is a privilege for a slave to be able to do a little bit of work for the prince and Niangniang."

"You are now the head of the Imperial Court, and the palace will have to rely on you in the future to gain a firm foothold in the harem, and my father-in-law must not say such arrogant words again!"

Gonggong Cao shook his head again and again, and his pug-like face gradually climbed a little gloomy.

The precious concubine was clever, and immediately saw through the difference in Father-in-law Cao's face, and asked directly: "Father-in-law came today, but is there anything else?" ”

Gonggong Cao didn't dare to hide it, and continued to hoard gloom, crying with a sad face, and said hesitantly: "Niangniang, you are now the co-master, but you also know the current situation in the palace, it's not that the slave doesn't give Niangniang another palace, and you really can't vacate the land!" ”

At first, the precious concubine was only immersed in the ecstasy of being suddenly canonized, and she was not aware of this serious problem in the slightest.

It wasn't until this moment that she came back to her senses, and couldn't help complaining: "No wonder the Queen Mother gave herself the position of a noble concubine so happily, there is no single palace and a single courtyard in her feelings, and this noble concubine in this palace is just a false name!" ”

Gonggong Cao didn't dare to nod, but he looked worried, and said: "Niangniang, our Great Zhou Dynasty has only four generations of system, and several generations of emperors have advocated diligent and thrifty governance, so it is reasonable that the harem is insufficient." ”

The precious concubine said disapprerovingly: "There are a total of sixteen main palaces in the harem, and there are countless palace pavilions, is it possible that there is still no palace room for the palace to live?" ”

Gonggong Cao was questioned by the precious concubine, and explained like a mourner: "Niangniang doesn't know, the queen of the middle palace lives alone in Changle Palace, Zhou Guifei lives in Weiyang Palace, Concubine Shu lives in Huifang Palace, Concubine De is in Yingchun Palace, Concubine Jing has just died, Wu Guifei occupies Concubine Jing's Dongzhao Palace, Li Guifei is in Guanju Palace, and Meng Guifei is in Huaqing Palace......"

"There are so many palace rooms in the palace, can't you really vacate a courtyard?"

"Niangniang, don't you know, there were originally many concubines of Emperor Wu Zhao, and all of them were placed in the northwest, and there was no left. Immediately after the death of Emperor Yong'an, Emperor Yong'an had so many concubines, he couldn't squeeze in anything, so he could only live in the palace and rely on a golden lock from the court office to show the difference. ”

After listening to these words, the precious concubine squinted, and asked seriously: "Is there really no place to place this palace?" ”

Father-in-law Cao was embarrassed for a long time, and said in a low voice: "It's not that there is really no place, it's just a little difficult." ”

The precious concubine glared at her eyes and asked sharply: "Could it be that the work of dogs and horses that my father-in-law just said is just lip service?" ”

"No, no, no...... Minions don't mean that. ”

"Since my father-in-law has a place, I might as well say it directly, whether it is difficult or not, and this palace will also help you think about it......"

"This matter, it's difficult to say, it's easy to say, it's easy to say, it depends on whether the mother is willing to make a move."

"Don't beat around the bush, but it's okay to say it!"

"The Ask Immortal Palace in the east of the Zichen Palace is now inhabited by the Shuren Master's ......"

After Gonggong Cao's eyes were secretive, the precious concubine understood.

"Most of the widows of Emperor Yong'an are also the daughters of meritorious gate lords, rather than driving them away, it is better to drive away the daughter of a criminal minister!"

"Amitabha, Niangniang is really intelligent. It's just ......"
