promised that Zhuang Chenchen would come to the prayer hall every day to chant scriptures, and Cen Muning really did it.

Even though I came every time, I didn't notice anything wrong with the prayer hall. It has always been a mystery why the Buddha statue that Qing Li and Bingling moved their hands and feet did not fall on Cang Lian's body that night.

"Mother, it's time for us to go back." Qingli reminded him on the side.

"yes." Cen Muning got up with her hand: "It's almost noon." ”

As the two of them walked out, they heard Bingling arguing with someone.

"The slave and maid have already said that the mother is chanting, and no one is allowed to disturb her. Why should you be embarrassed by your slaves? ”

"Get out of the way!" Ruan Er's voice was hoarse, and even if he used a lot of strength, he couldn't shout as if he was being choked by the neck. "The queen has been avoiding it, is it ashamed that she doesn't dare to see her concubines? Such a small child, how could she bear ......"

"Niangniang, you still have to take care of your body." Bingling frowned and grabbed her.

Cen Mooning and Bingling walked out at this time.

"Queen, queen mother, if you are dissatisfied with the concubines, just come to the concubines. You have seen with your own eyes how the concubine escaped from the ghost gate, do you know what the concubine paid to give birth to this child, why did you send him to someone else to raise. Queen Mother, people's hearts are full of flesh, don't you feel pitiful for the concubine's children at all? "The hoarse crying of the soft is really distressing and panicking.

Cen Muning instructed the slave who was pressing her to let go of her hand, and then said slowly: "It's true that you are his biological mother, but you are just an ordinary concubine, and you are not favored by the emperor." And the Queen Mother is now unwell and has been recuperating, and it is impossible for your mother and son to stay in the Fengluan Hall all the time and disturb the Queen Mother's recovery. So what do you think you can do to win the favor of the concubine? ”

This sentence was like a basin of cold water poured down, and the soft legs were weak, and the whole person fell to the ground.

"The concubine was criticized by the court and the people in the court because of the Buddha statue before. It was you who gave birth to the imperial heir at this time, so that her situation slowly improved. The courtiers were overjoyed that the emperor had an eldest son, so they stopped mentioning bad things. But this is only temporary. Cen Mooning looked at Ruan Er's weak and weak appearance, and asked calmly: "Can you understand the meaning of this palace?" ”

Joor didn't say anything, but she understood it perfectly. How could Concubine Pity not want to raise this child.

"This palace is just to fulfill her wish and make the emperor feel at ease." Cen Mooning frowned and said, "I also let your child live in a beautiful way." ”

"The queen mother said it so well, isn't it to gain a virtuous reputation in front of the emperor?" Rouer wiped away her tears and said, "Why do you think that your concubines are easy to deceive! If it didn't benefit you, would you be so generous? ”

"yes." Cen Muning smiled slightly: "Your child is weak, after all, he was born early." If she is raised by the side of this palace, this palace will definitely have to take care of her with all her might. Taking care of one or the other, it is likely that the palace has not experienced the management of the affairs of the harem, let alone the effort to accompany the emperor. I didn't even notice the misdeeds of the rest of the concubines in time. It's really not a good thing for Hongu. ”

"Ho......" Soft Er's eyes were swollen: "The queen mother is finally willing to admit it." ”

"There's nothing you can't admit." Cen Mooning handed her the silk.

Rouer twisted her body in resistance, not wanting to look at it. "Do you want to send your concubine's child to death for your own benefit?"

"Where do you start?" Cen Muning raised her eyebrows: "If this palace really wants to harm this child, don't let him be born." Why bother. What's more, why does this palace want you to move to the palace and take care of the children? Don't you just hope that with you, the biological mother, the child's life can be more comfortable. ”

"Are you merciful to our mother and son?" Rouer bit her lip, the smell of blood making her slightly sober. "Queen, you are selfish. You are afraid that if you can't raise my child well, you will blame others, if the child has an accident next to the concubine, she will inevitably be blamed by the emperor. For the sake of your own grace, you want the children of your concubines to die, how black is your heart! ”

"Don't be stupid." Cen Mu Ning couldn't help but sigh when she saw her so desperate. "You are the biological mother of your child, would you be willing to watch your child have an accident? Besides, the emperor treats the concubine very well, even if the child really has any mistakes, do you think the emperor will be angry with the concubine because of this? So Concubine Ying, think about it carefully, from the time you were pregnant to now, has the emperor shown that he likes this child? ”

When she asked, Rouer couldn't help but shudder. "What does the Queen want to say? The concubine is a substitute fake, so the concubine's children are not used? ”

"This palace wants you to know the gap between the fake and the deity. If you think about your children so much, don't you want to know why people can be concubines, but you can only be concubines? ”

Joor didn't make a sound, and looked at the queen silently.

She also wanted to know why the emperor cared so much about the concubine, but he didn't have any affection for her, a person whose appearance was not much inferior.

"Follow the favorite concubine and learn how to make a favorite concubine. Xuexue how can he raise his children to adulthood under the halo of a favorite concubine. can also make the emperor really cherish this child and be willing to give him a good future. This is what you should do. Cen Mu frowned, his face was cold: "This palace will let the imperial doctor carefully stare at the child's body, you, the biological mother, don't jump to conclusions first." ”

"......" Ruan Er looked at the queen and didn't say anything for a long time.

It wasn't until Cen Muning led others to walk a long distance that she suddenly came back to her senses: "Concubine...... Congratulations to the Queen. ”

How can you raise your child to adulthood under the aura of a favorite concubine? Soft asked herself over and over again, she knew it was not easy. But it is not easy, but it must be done.

Thinking like this, she suddenly admired the queen a little. Although the queen's actions are indeed ruthless, they are particularly reasonable.

It was a bad day.

Cen Muning had just sent Concubine Ying, and before she entered the Fengling Palace, she saw Cang Lian standing in front of the Fengling Hall waiting.

There were more than ten palace people accompanying him, and it seemed that they should have waited for a while.

"Why is Concubine Pian so free?" Cen Muning asked indifferently.

"Of course the concubines are free. Since the Buddha statue fell and the concubine was wronged was a bad omen in the palace, the emperor didn't come to Weiyang Palace very often. Even when the concubine went to Qingxuan Hall to ask for a meeting, the emperor was not very willing to talk to the concubine. Cang Lian sighed helplessly: "When the concubine came, she made a special inquiry, saying that the emperor was still in charge of the government at this time, so he dared to come over." I'm afraid that I will disturb the mother to accompany the emperor and ruin the emperor's interest. ”

"So, the poor concubine is here to complain about the palace?" Cen Muning smiled slightly: "Then follow the palace into the hall and talk." ”

Qingli swept Cang Lian's eyes, and it was obvious that she was hiding her dissatisfaction in her eyes, and her anger was a little uncomfortable. "Niangniang, the slave has served the master for many years, and she knows the master's temperament best. I used to like it, but I don't know when I didn't like it. The one who can make the master worry for a long time must be a person with the same heart, just like a mother. It's no wonder that some people are jealous and full of sour words. ”

Cang Lian and Qing Li have known each other for a long time, and they are not angry when they hear her talk like this at this time. "I was still heard by Qingli, and this palace thought that it was good to cover it up. really loves the emperor, and it has been a love affair for many years, and the concubines will certainly envy the love between the mother and the emperor. But envy is not jealousy. It doesn't hurt to eat a little vinegar once in a while. ”

When the group walked into the temple, Cang Lian instructed Jingqiao to present the gifts.

"The clay pot made by the laborers last time was accidentally smashed, and in the end it also disappointed the concubine's good intentions." Cang Lianzhuan uncovered the satin on Jing Qiao's hand, and under the satin was a brocade box. "This time, the concubine gave Niangniang something, Niangniang will definitely not break it."

While speaking, the brocade box was sent to the queen by Jingqiao.

"This is a good thing that the concubine has been looking for for a long time. The mother can use it. ”

Bingling took the brocade box from Jingqiao's hand, and Qing Li opened the brocade box, took the contents and handed them to the queen.

It was a thin piece of paper.

Cen Mooning frowned, and a dose of pharmacy appeared in front of him.

"What's this prescription?" She asked, puzzled.

"Naturally, it's a secret recipe for a man." Cang Lian smiled and couldn't close her mouth: "If the queen mother uses this recipe to recuperate, she will soon be able to give birth to a concubine." I want to come to Niangniang, you have been serving the emperor for more than a year, but you don't have any children of your own. Now you are so generous, you are really virtuous to give up other people's children to your concubines. But the concubine can't do anything for you, so she has to offer medicine to wish you a wish as soon as possible. The middle palace vulture, but it has been a taboo since ancient times! ”

"You're obviously deliberately cursing the mother." Qingli was so angry with her that she couldn't wait to roll up her sleeves and pick her two big ear scrapers.

"Qingli, what nonsense are you talking about." Cang Pian glanced at her with disdain: "I hope to share the worries of the queen." But it didn't mean to curse. If you are in doubt, just ask someone to test the prescription, this is a really good thing. ”

"The concubine is so hearted, it really makes the palace happy." Cen Muning put Fang Zi aside with his hand: "It's just that why don't you use it yourself!" You have been looking forward to it for so many years to regain your old love, don't you need something practical more than this palace? ”

"It's hard for the concubines to even see the emperor's face, where is there such a good blessing as Niangniang." Cang Lian sighed again: "The concubine is really envious of the mother." ”

"This palace has accepted it, if there is nothing else, you can go back and rest." Cen Mooning looked at her quietly.

Cang Lian Rao smiled and saluted her slightly: "The concubine retires." By the way, the concubine almost forgot that the concubine would receive the great grace of the mother and take good care of Zizhou. ”

"Azusa?" Cen Mu Ning was slightly surprised.

"yes, the queen doesn't know yet, does she? The emperor gave the emperor's eldest son the name Zizhou, Zhuang Zizhou, the state of Kyushu. It shows that the emperor has high hopes for this child. The corners of Cang Pian's lips flew: "The love of the mother, the concubine will never live up to it." will inevitably raise Zizhou to adulthood, in order to comfort your grace today. ”
