Chapter 633: His Difficulties (2)
Cining Palace.
Cining Palace is the dormitory of the Empress Dowager of Great Qin.
Now in the Great Qin Palace, the queen is pregnant, and she is not valued by the emperor, so all palace affairs are in charge of the queen mother.
But the queen mother said that she was old, and said that she had worked hard for half her life, and she had already managed palace affairs as the queen's support, and now she was tired and didn't have much heart to manage this harem affair.
But the queen shirked, and then added the emperor's plea, so the queen mother could only take a step back and let her personal grandmother Cao Mama manage the palace affairs on her behalf.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that although Mama Cao is managing the palace affairs on the surface, the person who is actually in charge is the queen mother.
After all, Mama Cao, as the closest person to the Queen Mother, will ask the Queen Mother in advance about all decisions, so the real owner of this Great Qin Harem is the Queen Mother.
In other words, the decisions promulgated by Mama Cao are naturally decided by the Queen Mother.
As for why the Queen Mother did this extra and let Mama Cao be the shield in the middle, the beginning and the end of this are still deep.
First of all, in this way, the queen mother not only gained a good reputation, but also was able to become the eternal master of this harem.
You won't be impeached by the old ministers of the previous dynasty, and at the same time, you can win their respect.
Some people who know the inside story will also understand that this is because the relationship between the queen mother and the emperor is not as simple as it seems.
As we all know, the current Emperor of Great Qin is the biological son of the Empress Dowager of Great Qin, but sometimes. The relationship between the biological son and the mother is not as harmonious as outsiders see.
Especially in this palace, because of power, the father is not the father, the son is not the son, and the mother is not the mother.
Su Chengcheng originally thought that there would be an exception between Rong Songyao and his mother, but after listening to what Xiao Liuzi said, he understood that the relationship between the two was probably worse than that of other countries.
Now Su Qingcheng has come to Cining Palace, and it is the queen Shan Dan who brought these concubines to greet the queen mother.
Originally, they should have come a long time ago, but because the Queen Mother has been ill recently, it has been delayed until today.
Su Qingcheng was still thinking about what kind of person Rong Songyao's mother would be, but after hearing the palace secrets in Xiao Liuzi's mouth, she understood that the women in this harem are never simple, especially those who can achieve the position of the queen mother.
She thought that the reason why the Queen Mother was willing to see them like this today was also because Wang Qingcheng had been a pet for a lifetime in the past month.
No matter what the reason is, the Queen Mother will probably comfort Rong Songyao with a motherly heart, and then warn them about these concubines, so that they know who is the real master of the harem.
Now, with her position, there is no way to enter this Cining Palace.
But she didn't think much about it to figure out what was going on in this Cining Palace, I'm afraid that after Wang Qingchengli left Cining Palace this time, she would never be as proud as before.
Su Tingcheng thought about the neglect that Linglong Pavilion had received during this time, and understood that it should be Wang Qingcheng's work behind this.
After all, what Wang Qingcheng said that day was not just talking, she would definitely do it.
As the only woman in the harem who has ever been favored except for the queen, her status is much higher than her name.
Her special may appear in the second place, and the third concubine will disappear after that, but before she appears. She's the most special one.
The palace people in the palace have always looked at the face of the emperor's master, and the emperor favors Wang Qingcheng, so all the palace people will look at her face and flatter her.
During this time, because of Wang Qingcheng's speciality, Jingyang Palace has also become a place for people in the palace to come and go, and any good things in the Internal Affairs Office will be sent there first.
Similarly, no matter what Wang Qingcheng wants to do, she only needs to move her mouth, and countless people will go forward to do things for her.
Even if Su Tingcheng seeks a complaint from Shan Dan, I am afraid that the final result will not be over.
It's a big deal to punish a few palace people, and this matter will definitely not implicate Wang Qingcheng.
She won't be punished, because she will be smart and won't let anyone hear her say something that makes these people snub Su Chengcheng.
However, Su Qingcheng didn't hate Wang Qingcheng much, first, the other party's subordinates showed mercy. Otherwise, her life would be even worse than it is now, and the second is that the reason why all this happened was all her own sin.
"The emperor has arrived."
Just when Su Chengcheng was thinking nonsense, a eunuch's sharp voice sounded, Su Tingcheng's body shook, and then he lowered his head.
Then she heard a rush of footsteps passing by.
She was mixed with other people's greetings, and she couldn't hear anything special at all, even if her voice was Su Qingcheng's voice.
Soon, he entered Cining Palace, and he didn't raise his head to look at Rong Songyao's back like other concubines.
Just looked at the bluestone slab in front of him in a daze, from Rong Songyao's footsteps just now, he could hear that he was very anxious.
So who is his eagerness for?
Is it because of Wang Qingcheng?
Is he reluctant to let Wang Qingcheng suffer a little grievance here from the Queen Mother?
Or is it just to create the illusion of pampering Wang Qingchun for the Queen Mother?
She couldn't see through it, and she knew that what these people were doing could never be just superficial.
These people ......
Su Tingcheng wanted to cry a little, the memory she desperately protected in her mind, the man she thought had never changed, and now he finally became the kind of person he hated the most.
Even if she knew that he didn't do it willingly, but because of various external factors.
There is even the persecution of the owner of this Cining Palace now, but she still can't accept his changes.
Everything she cherishes seems to be slowly moving away from her, so now, what is she still holding onto?
She didn't understand.
Rong Songyao naturally didn't know at this time that there was a person who was saddened by his change.
After he walked into Cining Palace, he saw the Queen Mother, Shan Dan, and recently his "favorite concubine" Wang Qingcheng sitting together, talking something.
It seems that the atmosphere between people is very harmonious, and it is not what outsiders imagine, the Queen Mother is bullying Wang Qingcheng.
Rong Songyao's footsteps paused, his eyes changed, and then he stepped on the sound of eager footsteps and walked in.
"Greetings to the Queen Mother."
After Rong Songyao finished speaking, Shan Dan and Wang Qingcheng also quickly got up to greet him.
And Rong Songyao hurriedly held Wang Qingcheng's hand, and said in a very soft voice: "Ai Concubine, don't be polite." Isn't that what I said? It doesn't have to be that way between you and me. ”
Wang Qingcheng's face flushed, he didn't dare to look at Rong Songyao, he just lowered his head.
This concubine made Shan Dan couldn't help but change her complexion, but then she regained her composure.
