Chapter 16: The Queen of Sudden Toughness
"This palace has never given birth to a child, but I don't know the child's nature." Queen Mo Wandi smiled, and slowly walked into the hall with a beautiful woman.
Everyone saluted, and Concubine Zhen also squatted down slightly, and said, "Queen Mother Wan'an." ”
The palace people on the queen's side and the beauty of Ran curtsey to her, "I've seen Concubine Zhenniang." ”
I still stood still.
"My sister is flat." The queen raised her hand and wanted to help Concubine Zhen, but Concubine Zhen avoided it quietly, and her brows furrowed, hiding a look of disgust.
This sick seedling is really unlucky! Don't touch Hongu!
The queen withdrew her hand in embarrassment and coughed again. turned to look at Baili Yihan, who was standing still with tears on his face, and a little doubt appeared between his eyebrows.
Concubine Zhen saw the puzzled look on the queen's face, and sneered, "Presumably the queen has never seen such a rude person?" This kid is very rude! If you see a concubine, you don't salute, let alone the queen's mother? ”
Bai Qi and Lu Luo's faces froze, why is this Concubine Zhen like this? When the queen's face is still crowded with Her Royal Highness the fifth princess.
Also, what is it called, let alone the queen mother? The queen is the queen, she is just a concubine! The position was originally higher than the queen and she was lower, but when she said this, it seemed that her position was higher than the queen.
Concubine Zhen spoke like this, no matter how good the queen's temper was, she felt uncomfortable!
The queen's expression really flashed a little strange, although it disappeared. She smiled, this smile hid a little bitterness, and said, "The fifth princess is young and raised in the deep palace, how can she know these etiquettes?" Bengong didn't think of this, but when she saw the five princesses she had never seen, she was a little puzzled, and her sister didn't have to be too harsh with the five princesses. ”
Concubine Zhen smiled a little ironically, and said lightly: "Ha~ The queen mother is a bodhisattva, a sa, a heart, and a bowel!" On weekdays, isn't the queen the most important to etiquette? Today, the concubines are impressed. ”
The queen looked indifferent and lacklustful, and said bitterly, "It's still a child, why is my sister so difficult?" This child has lost his mother since he was a child, and he is a pitiful person, and now he has His Majesty's pity, so my sister should not be embarrassed anymore. ”
Concubine Zhen immediately replied with a smile, "Yes, I will obey the queen's will." ”
Hmph, this sick man is used to using His Majesty to press the palace!
I looked at the woman who was slowly approaching me, and thought to myself, this is the most noble woman in the harem, who can be treated as if nothing is wrong in the face of the contempt and disrespect of a concubine of a lower rank than herself.
Is this queen too weak, or is Concubine Zhen too strong?
The queen smiled at me, with a bit of morbid and weak beauty, I have to say, she is very good-looking, but her complexion is not very good, and she has taken away the bright colors that most women should have.
"Fifth princess, this palace is your queen mother, and I have blamed this palace for the past few years, I am not in good health, and I failed to take care of you, so I was wronged in Caiyun Palace."
I was stunned for a moment, suddenly sniffed my little nose, raised a finger with an aggrieved face, pointed at Concubine Zhen, and complained, "She bullied me!" ”
Then Da Da Da ran to the queen's side, because she was too small, she could only hug her legs, and said in a hoarse voice with crying: "Yi Han is so afraid, she wants to beat Yi Han." ”
Alas, there is no way, life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills! Okay, let me try the character of this queen and see what she will do.
Queen, you ...... Will it help me who is weak? Or for the sake of Concubine Zhen's face, you can't choose it?
The queen seemed to be a little overwhelmed, she had no children herself, she was an only daughter at home, she didn't have very young brothers and sisters, and it was the first time that a child had held her like this, like this...... Rely on her.
She could only comfort Baili Yihan with a soft voice as much as possible, and even squatted down and gently hugged Baili Yihan, "Don't be afraid, the fifth princess, the queen mother will protect you, don't cry, okay?" ”
The queen took out her handkerchief, gently wiped her tears for Baili Yihan, and looked at her red and swollen eyes, very distressed.
"Concubine Zhen, no matter what the fifth princess dislikes you for, but such a small child, you ...... How can you bear it? ”
The queen slowly stood up, looked at Concubine Zhen, and said dissatisfiedly, her voice was not as calm as usual, but with a bit of majesty.
Concubine Zhen immediately retorted, "I...... The concubine didn't hit her! ”
Although I really wanted to do it on the spur of the moment, wasn't it blocked by the child's palace maid? I didn't touch this little mongrel in the slightest, but I still cried so loudly!
I shouted, "Yes! You're a bad woman, I hate you! ”
"Fifth princess, don't talk nonsense, this palace obviously hit this palace maid, and it didn't touch you at all!"
The queen said in a deep voice, "Enough! ”
She is not stupid, she can be considered to have heard from Concubine Zhen's words, Concubine Zhen did want to do something to the fifth princess, but was blocked by the palace maid of the fifth princess.
Since she didn't care about the affairs of the harem, Concubine Zhen was in charge of it, and she admitted that Concubine Zhen did a good job and took care of the harem in an orderly manner, and the palace people were also convinced of her, but nothing major happened.
On the other hand, she herself has not been in good health, if she is asked to be in charge of the harem, it is indeed difficult, and she does not have the ability to take care of the harem.
Besides, she has a soft temperament, and there are only two people in the back house of the family, and there are no other warblers and Yanyan, so she has never learned the art of royalty.
And there are a lot of people in the palace, and the best thing is to disobey the yang and the yin, and see the wind and make the rudder, often a set on the surface and a set behind the back, which is a headache. It's often exhausting to manage the affairs of the harem, and she's also powerless.
But she is the mother of a country after all, and she can tolerate Concubine Zhen's coquettishness and disrespect on weekdays, and she doesn't care much about her, but this doesn't mean that she will turn a blind eye to everything.
Concubine Zhen was interrupted by the queen, and was stunned for a moment, thinking, what's wrong today? The usually gentle queen also suddenly became angry, could it be that she wanted to support this little mongrel?
"Queen! Are you confused? The concubines all said that they hadn't touched her, so if you don't believe it, ask the minions present! ”
"You also know that this palace is the queen! Hongu is not confused! You wanted to do something to the fifth princess, but you were stopped by the palace maid! Ahem! ”
The queen seemed to be extremely angry, and the discomfort in her throat came up, and she covered her mouth and coughed a few times.
"Concubine Zhen, this palace thinks that even if you act aggressively, you will not attack a child, it seems that this palace is wrong, cough cough!"
"Concubine ......"
Concubine Zhen was speechless, and after realizing it, she realized that what she had just said had betrayed her behavior, and she blamed that little bastard! As soon as she was stimulated, she accidentally said the wrong thing.
"Okay, this palace asks you, Concubine Zhen, why did you come to this Linhua Hall today?"
Concubine Zhen hooked her lips and smiled, and said, "The concubine naturally came to visit the fifth princess and talk about a few things, yo, isn't it?" Aren't you here too, Queen Mother? ”
Ran Meiren was silent, looking humble and standing beside the queen, and she had not spoken since she came in, almost making people ignore her as a person.
At this moment, she was eager to interject and say: What are you? You can come, but can't you come?
has no dignity and humility, as if he is the biggest master of this harem, and he is still in front of the queen to come to the palace, shameless! The queen is more noble than you!
But her temperament and identity don't allow her to do this, after all, she is usually gentle and soft-spoken, and she is just a little beauty, she can't talk to Concubine Zhen like this, she can only secretly feel unhappy in her heart.
