Chapter 65: Empress Liu Xuan

Kunning Palace.

The fragrance of the Xinuan Pavilion is thick, and the incense burner is made of sterling silver, and the appearance is as white as snow.

The tables and chairs are edged with gold leaf, and the carpet is embroidered with gold thread with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes, and the pearls and jade are curtains, but they are not tacky at all.

Everyone tiptoed quietly, because the queen didn't like to make noise, and everyone in the palace was extremely careful, and they couldn't wait to make a sound.

Therefore, Concubine Shu's sharp voice is particularly harsh.

"Sister, as the Lord of the Six Palaces, do you really plan to give up like this?"

The emperor edicted to build a moon tower for the newly promoted concubines on the edge of the mirror lake, and its regulations were only under the Kunning Palace.

Concubine Shu has such a competitive temperament, where can she suppress this breath.

After sulking for a long time, she finally couldn't help but come to probe the queen's tone.

Queen Liu was born in a declining clan, almost no family background at all, can climb up step by step and sit firmly in the position of queen, if she is a blank slate, there has never been any scheming and means, it must make people laugh off their big teeth.

When she was young, she didn't take this silent queen in her eyes, but now she is more and more aware of the horror of this woman, and she recalls the bizarre and unbelievable past events in the palace back then, and she feels a chill in her back.

Empress Liu Xuan's tone was still very flat, and she couldn't hear any joy or anger: "This is not my business, what can I do, Your Majesty's mind, can anyone be disobedient?" ”

When Concubine Shu asked to see her, she was writing in the warm pavilion, so she directly asked Concubine Shu to come here to see her.

There was still rice paper with ink on the ebony edge pear heart strip, and she didn't ask the palace maid to clean it up.

On the side of the table, there is a four-fold solid wood screen carved with the four gentlemen of Meilan, bamboo and chrysanthemum, blocking the other side tightly, but it is slightly abrupt.

Seeing her so calm and relaxed, Concubine Shu became even more irritable.

She suppressed her anger, and her voice was so soft that it dripped: "But...... You are the lord of the six houses! What kind of thing is that fox! ”

She said this sincerely, as if she was indeed thinking about the queen.

Queen Liu Xuan was still plain and unmoved, sitting there upright, the double luan tassels on her head swayed motionlessly.

As soon as Concubine Shu spoke, she realized that she had lost her words, so why did she say everything she thought in her heart!

You can scold that slut in private, but you have to be cautious in front of the queen. She was very uneasy in her heart.

The queen didn't care about the flickering in her words, she only glanced at her coldly:

"I'm not the master of the harem."

"Your Majesty is."

This is a wonderful thing to say, and it caught Concubine Shu off guard.

Concubine Shu was speechless for a moment.

She hurriedly knelt down, her eyes instantly turned red, the rouge in the corners of her eyes was blurred, and she looked very aggrieved.

"Sister is a lesson."

The queen sighed softly: "Sister, please get up, but don't say this kind of thing again." ”

Concubine Shu also knelt on the ground complainingly, fortunately, there was a dark gold velvet blanket on the floor of the warm pavilion of Kunning Palace, otherwise when she went back, her legs would hurt. She was afraid that she would say too much and make too many mistakes, so she simply kept her mouth shut and responded to all changes.

"You don't have to."

Concubine Shu took out a silk cloth handkerchief and gently pressed the corners of her eyes, full of charm, I saw pity.

The queen lowered her eyes: "Biqiu, send the concubine back to the palace." ”

Anyway, she has already said what should be said, and as for whether it can have any effect, she simply doesn't care.

This soft queen has made up her mind to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight?

Concubine Shu honestly let the palace maid help her to get up, and retreated with low eyebrows.

Waiting out of the gate of Kunning Palace, Concubine Shu shook off Biqiu's hand and asked her to go back in an unkind tone.

Biqiu has the same temperament as her master, as if she doesn't care about anything, and she just respectfully retires after receiving such treatment.

Seeing her walk away, the expression on Concubine Shu's face became obscure again, she gritted her teeth, stomped her foot viciously, turned around and went back with a high spirit.

After Biqiu took Concubine Shu out, Queen Liu Xuan breathed a long sigh of relief.

A man came out from behind the tall solid wood screen, bowed down to her, and bowed his hand: "Queen Mother." ”

It turned out to be the crown prince Xie Qinglin!

It turned out that Concubine Shu came quite unfortunately, Xie Qinglin was also here, Liu Xuan wrote and he studied ink, and the mother and son were chatting.

Concubine Shu doesn't come to the door on weekdays, so she must have something in mind when she comes rashly.

And when she thought of the recent incident that was spreading inside and outside the imperial city, she simply stopped Xie Qinglin, who was retreating, "Don't be in a hurry to leave first, stay here and see what she wants to do." ”

So Xie Qinglin sat behind the screen, holding his breath and concentrating, deliberately slowing down his breathing, and listened to the content of their conversation completely.

Concubine Shu naturally had no time to realize his existence.

"Concubine Shu has a good plan, let me be this bird, and she will enjoy it herself." Queen Liu Xuan snorted coldly, extravagant, not angry and arrogant.

"The queen mother is wise." Xie Qinglin laughed.

Liu Xuan looked at her son softly: "What do you think about this matter?" ”

Xie Qinglin found a chair opposite her and sat down, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's not a secret, Erchen has already mentioned it to his father, but unfortunately it's still useless." ”

"Oh? When? "The emperor is now throwing more and more folds to the East Palace, Xie Qinglin is busy day by day, so he doesn't come to Kunning Palace often, and he and the queen haven't seen each other for a few days.

I haven't had time to talk to her about the study that day.

"When my father first started this idea, he said that it was not feasible, and he also said that he would think about it later, but I didn't expect it to be like this in the end."

Xie Qinglin looked guilty: "Erchen is not doing things effectively. ”

"Well, you don't have to blame yourself." Liu Xuan also knew that this was not his fault at all, so he shook his head helplessly, and asked again: "What are the reactions of those courtiers in the previous dynasty?" ”

Speaking of this, Xie Qinglin was quite puzzled: "Only Song Xiang stood up against it, and none of the others spoke. ”

He didn't expect this to be the result at all, and he thought that most people were just as stunned as he was.

Song Xiang...... is really upright, and the loyal ministers set an example...... "Song Zhijie is a veteran of the two dynasties, and Liu Xuan has long heard of his name.

She asked, "Then the others, really didn't react?" ”

Xie Qinglin's face was gloomy, "Erchen thinks that although the others didn't show anything, I'm afraid they are also completely unwilling. ”

"What about the people of the Chen family, what is their attitude?"

This one is even more bizarre.

Chen Yuanli didn't react, but Erchen looked at him very strangely.

Liu Xuan held up her chin: "That sleeve is obviously their person, how can it seem that there is another hidden meaning in this now?" ”

This is really strange, as if things have developed like this, and it is not what the Chen family expected. The first time she saw Huai Sleeve, she saw a strong ambition in her eyes, she didn't think it was worth mentioning at the time, but now that she thinks about it, she is too much of a rival.

Xie Qinglin sneered: "I'm afraid that they will be bitten back in the end if they don't use people well." ”

It's just that what is this woman trying to do?

What lies beneath her stunning exterior is hard to fathom.

After dinner, Xie Qinglin retired from Kunning Palace. There are still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with, even if he is actually very reluctant in his heart.

Unexpectedly, on the way back, I met an unexpected person.

"Brother Huang." Xie Ziyu smiled gently, but he revealed a bad intention.

What does he want to do?

Xie Qinglin returned the salute very politely, he didn't want to entangle with him more, he just wanted to rush back as soon as possible.

But as if he deliberately wanted to go against him, Xie Ziyu was not as good as he wanted, and stopped him from gossiping for a long time, Xie Qinglin's brows jumped, and he even wanted to throw his sleeves and leave on the spot, but his good self-cultivation made him control himself, and his face was still calm and light.

"Brother Chen heard that the imperial brother met a beautiful woman who looked like a fairy outside, so it seems that the imperial brother doesn't want to be a golden crow and a treasurer?"

Yes, I was waiting to ask this.

He's well-informed.

Xie Qinglin didn't want to say more to him, so he glanced at him lightly: "It has nothing to do with you." ”

After several twists and turns, Song Xingqiao finally learned Jiang Yunyu's address from Xie Qinglin.

He immediately rushed over with Lan Ting in a hurry.

Because Xie Qinglin said that only he and Lan Ting were allowed to go, and no one was allowed to approach, these two people who were not good at knowing the way almost dizzy in the alley.

When he finally saw the word "Gu Yuan", Song Xingqiao exclaimed excitedly, but Lan Ting on the side still had no expression, he secretly thought that this little ghost was really cold.

As everyone knows, under Lan Ting's calm appearance, there have already been turbulent waves, and his fingers trembled slightly, but Song Xingqiao didn't notice it.

Although he was so excited, he still noticed that there seemed to be many people who knew martial arts hidden here, and their bodies could be hidden, but their breath could not deceive people.

Who is hiding in the shadows?

Song Xingqiao stepped forward and knocked on the door, and it didn't take long for a woman to open the door for them, this woman, he also often saw in the East Palace, so he was even more sure that he had not come to the wrong place, and his tone was brisk: "Sister Xiange, why are you here too?" ”

Xian Ge hung his head and welcomed them in: "Song Gongzi, please come in." Although she didn't know his intentions, she still knew Song Xingqiao's personality, and the one who could know this place must be someone who was deeply trusted by His Highness.

"Sister, don't be in a hurry to invite me first, the one behind is the one who should go in the most." Song Xingqiao smiled and turned over, and Xian Ge saw the pale and thin young man behind him.

"Who is this......?" It was a fresh face, and she was a little confused.

Song Xingqiao smiled: "Take her to see Miss Jiang." After speaking, he blinked, "Just find me a place to roast the fire, and I won't disturb the two of them first." ”
