When the crown prince and Jian Xubai discussed the way out, Xifu Palace.

Fu Chongrong held the osmanthus in his hand and walked into the inner hall with a smile: "Sister Cui is really outside!" A dignified concubine, even if she is demoted, she is higher than her sister after all! When you're sick, why don't you squeak, but hide here quietly to recuperate? If it weren't for the fact that my sister had just met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince outside and knew about it from His Royal Highness, I am afraid that she would not have known about it at this time! ”

As she spoke, she motioned to her palace maid to drag an embroidered stool in the distance, moved it to the vicinity of Concubine Cui's sickbed, and stepped forward to sit down with Shi Shiran - I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, but since she entered the hall, she has never saluted Concubine Cui - looked at Concubine Cui's pale face, "fluttered", but the laughter was a little louder, and she said, "Sister's complexion, it's really distressing to look at!" It's just that you are sick like this, you don't invite the imperial doctor and don't tell the queen, but you only privately invite His Royal Highness the prince to come over and speak, and spread it, and you think the queen has treated you badly? ”

"Who doesn't know that the queen's maiden nephew and nephew had an accident not long ago?" Concubine Cui is really sick in a hurry, but in the end, from the side concubine when Emperor Xianjia was the prince to the current old seniority, even if she is not in good spirits, she will not feel sorry for Fu Chongrong, who is more than ten years younger than her.

Hearing this, he was not angry, but said lightly, "A few days ago, even the Queen Mother sent people to Weiyang Palace to comfort the Queen Mother in three days, in this case, the palace is so sick, why bother the Middle Palace?" Fu Chongrong often walks around in front of the Queen Mother, the palace only says that the Queen Mother has always been kind and amiable, you are familiar with it, how can you learn to be considerate, but I don't want you to even think about such a simple truth, it is really disappointing! ”

"Sister Cui's words are not right!" It's just that Fu Chongrong is not easy to deal with, and when he heard this, his eyes fluttered, but he sneered and said, "Now in the harem, I know that the queen's niece and nephew are destroyed in the hands of my sister's own flesh and blood, His Royal Highness the Prince!" Sister will be sick, no matter what the real reason for the illness is, when you send someone to tell the queen, you can finally express your guilt and remorse a little, right? You are silent, so that people know, but ......"

She deliberately dragged out her voice, "You're a thief!" ”

"His Majesty Emperor Taizu made it clear that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics!" Concubine Cui lowered her face coldly, and said calmly, "The affairs of the previous dynasty, how can we as concubines discuss it?" Fu Shi, you have overpassed! ”

"What kind of politics is this?" Fu Chongrong disdainfully retorted, "It's just a pity for the queen's maiden nephew, a good noble son of a family, who provoked whom, was ruined at a young age!" Thinking about Su Bianxiu's talent, he, his nephew, may be the same character as him when he grows up, but now he has suffered this disaster - but who still has a conscience, who can see it?! ”

When Concubine Cui heard this, she sneered, her knife-like gaze swept over her face, and she did not hide the ridicule in her tone: "I said that although you didn't have any friendship with this palace in the past, you didn't have any grievances, how can you rush up and fall into the well today?" Do you think that the crown prince is in danger, and you are afraid that after King Zhao takes the throne, the queen will investigate your mouthy in the Qingxi Palace, and plan to use our mother and son as stepping stones to atone for your sins? ”

- This Fu Chongrong was only Jieyu at the beginning of the year, but because the Queen Mother was still defending the prince and did not want the Su family to fight for the throne of King Zhao, she summoned the concubine to the Qingxi Palace, and proposed in public to let King Zhao succeed, and at the juncture when no one dared to respond, she said something that conformed to the queen mother's wishes, and entered the eyes of the queen mother, and then she was promoted to one of the nine concubines.

It's just that although she did that at that time to please the Queen Mother, she greatly offended the Queen!

After all, no matter how generous Queen Su is, how can she have a good impression of a palace concubine who wants to pass her only son out?!

Fu Chongrong didn't know this before, but she didn't have anything to be afraid of: after all, the queen mother she took refuge in was the mother-in-law who the queen had to serve carefully, not to mention that the prince's position was stable - the prince's biological mother was not Queen Su! She helped the Queen Mother speak at that time, which was equivalent to helping the prince, so even if the Queen Mother was gone, as long as the prince ascended the throne, the queen would not be able to retaliate against Fu Chongrong!

She has been in the palace for a few years, and she has been favored for a while, otherwise she would not have been the master of the first palace before she took refuge in the queen mother, and she won the book of Jieyu.

The problem is that he has never been able to give birth to a son and a half daughter - but Emperor Xianjia's health is getting worse, this year he simply entrusted the government to the prince and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, and concentrated on recuperation.

In this case, Fu Chongrong knows very well in his heart: even if he is still young, he has no hope of having a child!

So she has to think about her future!

When Rui Taizu fought the world, the banner was "to drive out Hulu and recover the rivers and mountains", so after the Dingding, all the systems copied Qianyong to show the restoration of clothes.

The harem system handed down from Qianyong is that after the first emperor goes, the concubines with children are taken out of the palace by their children to be raised, and the childless concubines are sent to the palace near the emperor's tomb to "take care".

The former is naturally good, going to the children's house to reunite with the title of concubine or concubine, enjoying his old age in peace, and teasing his grandson; But the latter is not so wonderful, or rather not so wonderful: frankly, it is to go to the palace and wait for death!

Not only is he waiting for death, but his food and clothing will definitely not be much better - after all, it is not good for a widow to wear bright clothes, let alone to keep a festival for the first emperor?

It must be a hard life to show the sorrow and reluctance to the emperor!

Fu Chongrong is still in Shaohua, and her body is healthy, if there is no accident, she can still live for decades - if she has been working hard in the palace for decades, she really feels bored when she thinks about it!

It was because she stood up to help the Queen Mother speak, but it was not for promotion, but mainly to please the Queen Mother and the Prince, after the death of Emperor Xianjia, she could get some preferential treatment, and it was best to be spoken by the new Queen Mother and stay in the side hall of Mingren Palace as a companion, so as not to be thrown into the palace and fend for herself.

But who would have thought that it was only half a year, the situation in the harem of the previous dynasty had changed abruptly, and the prince, who had been the prince for nearly 20 years, was suddenly charged with murdering innocents, disrespecting his mother-in-law, violent heart, etc., and his future was not bright; However, the queen's son, King Zhao, has become the most likely candidate for the prince at the moment!

Fu Chongrong still remembers that when he was serving in Mingren Palace, he occasionally heard the palace people chewing their tongues in private: "This time the Jianling bloody case is said to have been investigated by His Royal Highness the King of Wei, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince goes wrong, the new prince should be His Royal Highness the King of Wei, right?" ”

"Are you stupid?" The companion of the palace man smacked at her and said, "Who doesn't know that His Royal Highness the King of Wei is just a cover for Her Royal Highness the Acting Princess?" This His Royal Highness is going to come to power, and in the future, I am afraid that the Ji family will have the final say! Your Majesty is so wise and powerful, how could he tolerate such a thing? Moreover, when the Queen Mother talked to Aunt Yuguo about the current situation two days ago, she also sighed that the palms and backs of her hands were full of meat! If His Royal Highness King Wei ascends the throne, how can the eldest princess of the acting country spare the crown prince and the one in Xifu Palace? ”

"And you mean?"

"If you want to be easy to store this time, the new prince must be His Royal Highness King Zhao! After all, although the Su family has always supported His Royal Highness King Zhao to seize the crown, they have no intention of treating His Royal Highness King Zhao as a puppet! What's more, if His Royal Highness King Zhao ascends the throne, whether it is the crown prince or Her Royal Highness the Acting Princess, there is hope to preserve it - do you think this is the truth? ”

"It's—but, the one who's been running toward us all these few months is going to be unlucky, isn't he? When the Queen Mother said that she would pass on His Royal Highness King Zhao to King Su or King Xiang, the people in the hall didn't dare to squeak, but she stood up, and then she was promoted to full capacity, but this has only been a few days proud? fell into the hands of the queen mother, and I don't know how the queen mother will toss her? ”

The two palace people laughed indifferently when they said this-they didn't say a word to Fu Chongrong, so naturally they couldn't talk about grievances, and the reason why they mentioned her was not that they had any malice, but they just felt that there was something lively to see.

But how could Fu Chongrong, who was hiding in the shadows, not be as cold as ice when he listened?!

Helplessly, time cannot be reversed, she offended the queen has happened, and now in this situation, she is willing to give up her face and go to Weiyang Palace to kneel and bow three times, how can the queen not guess the reason, how can she forgive her?

And it is not feasible to ask for guilt directly, and Fu Chongrong is unwilling to sit still, so it is natural to prove his repentance with direct action, in order to seek the queen's forgiveness.

For example, Concubine Cui's mother and son fell into the well!

This will be openly exposed by Concubine Cui's intentions, Fu Chongrong's eyes flashed with shame, and he sneered: "Sister Cui still knows that the prince is already in danger? It's no wonder that you were so anxious that you fell ill overnight - but it has come to this point, why do you mothers and sons continue to be obsessed? The queen has always been tolerant and generous, if you ......"

"Whew!" Before she finished speaking, she was cut off by Concubine Cui's loud voice, "What are you, just a little tolerant, even if this palace is no longer a concubine, it will still press you!" The former and harem are all like ants, and they want to please the queen and want to go crazy, so they are delusional to persuade the palace and the prince to surrender to Weiyang Palace! ”

Concubine Cui will be really angry - she persuaded the prince herself before, but if she couldn't do it, she would support King Zhao's accession to the throne, in short, she couldn't let King Wei succeed, even King Liang doubted these words, of course it was just talk!

What's more, she really wants to take refuge in King Zhao, how can she give Fu Chongrong credit?!

The more he scolded, the more he hated, although he was sick, he almost didn't jump up and fight Fu Chongrong, "I don't know how thick the sky is. People, you deserve to meddle in such a thing?! ”

Fu Chongrong only said that the prince was no longer saved, so Concubine Cui was not afraid, so not only did she not even salute after entering the inner hall, but she didn't take her seriously between her words and demeanor - this would be scolded by Concubine Cui and scolded the whole person for a while, before she reacted, angry, ashamed and angry, and screamed: "I have a good intention to show you the way, since you don't listen, that's good!" I'm going to see what kind of miserable law your mother and son will have in the future! ”

Saying that, he flicked his sleeves with hatred, threw the dangui that had been playing for a long time on Concubine Cui's quilt, and said with a sneer, "Gui is noble, my sister and the prince, just like this cinnamon that has been broken off: even if it is full of vitality and fragrance when it is born on the branch, it is often a metaphor for the word 'expensive', after it is folded off, all kinds of romance in the past are already yesterday's scenes;

She laughed maliciously, "Scattered into dust, reduced to mud on the soles of the feet of people who come and go!! ”

"Cheap. Person! Concubine Cui looked at Fu Chongrong's back, the resentment in her eyes was like substance, she punched the edge of the couch fiercely, and said through gritted teeth, "No matter what happens to my mother and son in the future, you cheap. people, don't think about what will happen to you!! ”
