The lanterns on the approach bridge were extinguished one by one, the galaxy disappeared from the Taiye Pool, the lights of the Shangyang Hall gradually dispersed, and the night pearl seemed to sink to the bottom of the water.

The emperor's shoulders left from the shore, and on this night, the queen's wedding night, the emperor pampered the concubine of Anle Palace.

In the Shangyang Palace, the tired Min'er, wearing the snow-white bedclothes, fell asleep.

In the dream, Min'er returned to her grandmother's side, back to her carefree childhood, she was holding her face to watch her mother embroider a purse for herself, but her grandmother suddenly appeared, domineering and rudely dragged her mother out of the door, saying that her mother was a slut, saying that she was a slut in life......

"Mother!" Min'er suddenly woke up from her dream, and the light had come in through the window, and it was dawn.

There was a lot of pain in her chest, Min'er opened her shirt and looked at it, and the left side of her chest was rubbed by the emperor, and she frowned helplessly. In the three days since she returned to Beijing, the grandmother in the palace told her countless times how to serve the emperor, although the emperor had the intention to humiliate her last night, but sooner or later there will be that day, she is not afraid.

And when I think of the scene in the nightmare, the gaze in my eyes becomes more and more resolute.

She wanted to see her mother, since she was already the queen, her mother should no longer be oppressed by her mother-in-law, but three days after returning to Beijing, the whole family was busy teaching her how to deal with the big wedding, and she repeatedly asked to see her mother, but she was ignored and rejected.

"Someone!" Min'er got up and left the bed, and there was immediately a sound of footsteps outside the door, and the palace maids rushed in, obviously surprised to see that the queen was standing in front of the bed.

Someone said: "Queen Mother, the hour is still early, and now it's just dawning early." ”

Min'er looked at them one by one, and there were no particularly outstanding characters, she ordered: "Summoning the five ladies of the Prime Minister's Mansion into the palace to meet them, and using the sedan chair of the palace to take the ladies to the Shangyang Palace." ”

Mama Yun hurried over and knelt at the feet of the queen, the little palace maid on the side told her what happened, Mama Yun hurriedly said: "Queen Qi, the emperor has decreed, you can't meet guests in the Shangyang Palace, and no one outside the inner palace is allowed to enter the Shangyang Palace." ”

Min'er looked at Yun indifferently, she understood her situation very well, her status symbolized wealth and glory, but in fact it was nothing.

When leaving the countryside, her grandmother told Min'er that the emperor did not kill the prime minister of the previous dynasty to calm the people's hearts, and to marry the prime minister's daughter as the empress three years later, to tell the Manchu civil and military forces his trust in the officials of the old dynasty.

Xiang Ye relied on the long sword in his hand and the iron horse of Zheng Zheng to fight the country, but the soldiers who followed him in blood could not rule the country for him, so his father Qiu Zhenyu was able to preserve his original dignity and survive. But he, like other old courtiers, was not destined to gain the trust of the new king. Maintained between the monarch and the ministers, there is only the great benefit of the family and the country.

Last night, the emperor made it very clear that he wanted Min'er to be the queen honestly, honestly. Therefore, the emperor's will, Min'er cannot easily disobey.

Min'er said: "Then meet on the shore and invite the lady to the pavilion on the edge of the Taiye Pool." ”

Mama Yun raised her head in amazement, this young little queen is really not simple.

In the palace of longevity, the elderly queen mother gets up early every day, every day when the emperor is in the morning, the palace maids and eunuchs have served the queen mother for breakfast, if the concubine does not sleep the night before, she will come to accompany her, and she did not come today.

The Queen Mother ate the milk porridge in her hand, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and followed the Queen Mother's lifelong companion Mama Lin, gave a plate of side dishes, and said with a smile: "You suddenly want to eat sweet, but after decades of habits, where can you eat sweet in the morning." It's a freshly pickled pickle that you taste and change your mouth. ”

The Queen Mother picked it with chopsticks, put it down happily, and said: "Ye'er is so easy to marry the queen, how is he prepared, a good person is left in the Shangyang Palace, and he goes to the concubine's house on the wedding night, what should the ministers think?" I, I want to worry about him, but I'm afraid that I can't do it, so don't worry about it, I don't think I'm sure. ”

At this time, the palace maid outside the door came in, and Mama Lin stepped forward to listen to a few words, and came back to tell the queen mother: "Mama Yun of Shangyang Palace sent someone to ask for your instructions, saying that the queen mother wants to summon the five ladies of the prime minister's mansion into the palace, and the emperor is in the early dynasty at this time, and they dare not disturb the emperor." Please show me. ”

The Queen Mother said: "Fifth lady? By the way, I heard that the queen is a concubine? ”

Mama Lin said: "In fact, in addition to the main lady in the prime minister's mansion, there are three concubines, what are they called at home, the slaves don't know, but let's count them, and they will be the fourth lady, these five ladies seem to be just the queen's mother herself, I heard that the biological mother is just a maid with no name, not even a concubine." ”

The Queen Mother frowned and sighed: "Suddenly said that she wanted to establish a queen, so she would stand up, but why did she choose a girl who came out of the house." ”
