After Cen Wei was sent down, the henchman palace maid saw that the queen's face was still sinking like water, so she poured a cup of Fufang drink and handed it over, and said softly: "Why should the mother bother with the two cheap maids? Whether it is the Queen Mother or Your Majesty, isn't this attitude obvious? In terms of longevity, whether the concubine is male or female, how can she compare with the eldest prince? ”

He also said, "You see that Your Majesty simply didn't even go to the Quezhi Palace for such a thing!" ”

"Have you forgotten what your mother said last time she entered the palace?" The queen took the Fufang drink but didn't drink it, but put it in the palm of her hand and slowly turned it, and said lightly, "Last year, when the Jiang family's second and fifth rooms entered Beijing, my mother said that she asked for her grandmother's permission, and wrote a letter to communicate with the fourth uncle, intending to work together to promote Shao'er as the prince - but the fourth uncle didn't agree!" ”

The confidant palace maid was stunned, and then said: "But Uncle Zhenbei didn't refuse!" It's not that he plans to wait for the northern Xinjiang to be completely pacified, and then ask for the establishment of the prince as the prince, and when the time comes, even if the Jiang family's big house and third room have any ideas, they are powerless to oppose it? Speaking of which, this is also for the good of the eldest prince, isn't it? ”

The queen said thoughtfully: "Maybe, but the northern Xinjiang has been fighting for several years, who knows when it will be over?" Especially in the western Xinjiang, there have been these recent incidents, and even the queen mother will not dare to slack off in the future situation...... Can the promise given by the fourth uncle be taken seriously, who can say for sure? ”

"But how can Uncle Zhenbei support the son of the concubine?" The confidant palace maid retorted, "The fourth room of the Jiang family has a grudge against the big house for killing children!" Although it is said that when Lao Jibei Hou was alive, he insisted that it was the Cai Wang and his wife who hated the Duan family back then, but who didn't know that they were just on the top of the tank, and this matter must be inseparable from the four rooms of the Jiang family? ! That Jiang Yayue is the concubine's uncle! ”

"The fourth uncle really won't support Jiang Huizhi, but the second uncle ...... That's hard to say! The queen's eyes were complicated, "Although this palace also has the blood of the Jiang family, it is not surnamed Jiang!" Jiang Huizhi, she is the serious daughter of the Jiang family! ”

He sighed, "The last time my mother came to the palace, didn't she complain that the new doorman who had recently defected to the Xin family couldn't find a suitable messenger, so that the palace was looking for an opportunity to talk to the queen mother?" This palace is the daughter of the Xin family, and once it is the queen, the first to benefit is the Xin family...... Do you think it's because of this that the uncles and uncles don't like it, and even have precautions, so they decided not to be the prince according to Shao'er? ! ”

The confidant palace maid also sank in her heart when she heard this, and muttered: "But how can the fourth room of the Jiang family rest assured that the son of the noble concubine will ascend to the great treasure?" ”

"The fourth room may not be willing, but the second uncle is in one day, and the fourth uncle can't be the master!" The queen felt that she had caught the truth, and rejoiced, "Fortunately, the palace has always had a good relationship with the fourth room - the second uncle is old, and it seems that Shao'er's entry into the East Palace can only be delayed!" ”

The confidant palace maid hurriedly reminded: "In this case, if the concubine is pregnant with a princess this time, it will be okay, if it is the prince, the mother should still try to suppress it!" Lest the limelight overshadow our eldest prince, and make some people outside think that they shouldn't be up, and it will not be good to have extraneous branches when the prince is discussed in the future! ”

"That's how it should be!" The queen nodded, "Fortunately, Your Majesty is also on the side of our mother and son, and you will pass on the news that Your Majesty did not visit the concubine today, of course, you can't say the real reason why Your Majesty can't pass......"

"Your Majesty doesn't go, of course, because the concubine, mother and son can't get into Your Majesty's eyes!" The confidant palace maid understood and said categorically, "After all, the concubine relied on Your Majesty for her own dead face, and Your Majesty is willing to let her enter the palace and still occupy the position of the concubine, it is already for the sake of the Jiang family's face, and under the condition of your tolerance, how can you give her any dignity?!" ”

The queen clapped: "That's it!" ”

The queen made up her mind here to suppress Concubine Jiang and prevent her from turning over because she was pregnant—but she didn't know that her order was in the emperor's arms: "The Jiang family's big house is getting worse now, and they will never give up the opportunity to turn defeat into victory from the harem!" It is an excellent opportunity for the concubine to be pregnant, and they will definitely make a move! And now that the queen has taken action to suppress the concubine, the Jiang family's big house will inevitably focus on helping the concubine, and it will be scattered in other places......"

Cen Wei admonished: "The concubine has been inferior to the queen everywhere since she entered the palace, and now she is pregnant, and Your Majesty has never even stepped into the Quezhi Palace on the first day of learning the news!" When you go tomorrow, do you need to be soothed? lest the concubine's disadvantage be too strong and she will be discouraged! ”

The Emperor bowed his head: "Of course! ”

The next day, when the emperor arrived at the Quezhi Palace, he greeted Jiang Huizhi step by step for a while, and after ordering the palace people to retreat, he suddenly said: "Although the queen doesn't like you, for the trust of the old Jibei Marquis, as well as her reputation, I don't think I will be harsh on you." If you need anything, just mention it to her - for your own good, I won't care about you very much in the future, so take care of yourself! ”

Jiang Huizhi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly burst into tears: "Being able to hear Your Majesty's words, the concubine is also satisfied!" ”

"You're pregnant, don't be too emotional." The emperor's tone was very light, but he couldn't hide his concern and helplessness, "It's not good for the child, and it's not good for you!" I have nothing to do for your mother and son, so I can only make a few fewer trips, lest you attract your eyes! ”

"The concubine understands." Jiang Huizhi said with tears in her eyes, "The concubine originally thought that His Majesty didn't like the concubine, but today I know Your Majesty...... Your Majesty's heart is ...... Concubinage...... The concubine body is really confused! ”

…… The private communication between the emperor and the concubine was very successful, and both parties felt that they had gained a lot.

"I hinted to the concubine, it's not that I don't like her, and I don't want to give her the respect and status that the concubine deserves, but she is really controlled by the Jiang family, and she can't help herself! The concubine and the queen have always had a grudge, and now it involves the future of the two of them - she will definitely spare no effort to persuade the Jiang family to go to the fourth room, so as to bring down the queen's backer! ”

This is the emperor's thoughts, "How can the four rooms be so easy to deal with?" I don't know how much brain it takes to get a big house...... In this way, they should have less brains in what I really want to do, so that I can do it more easily! ”

And Jiang Huizhi thinks so: "Sure enough, although the emperor has always made the puppet messenger very qualified, he is unwilling in his heart." Besides, the queen and me serve him in the huge harem, and I am also beautiful and young, how can he hate me? It's nothing more than that the queen mother and queen dare not express their closeness! As the Ninety-Five Supreme Being managed like this, how can it be without a little resentment - I keep saying that I understand him, I'm afraid that the more he listens to me and understands, the more humiliated he feels! ”

A man can still splash blood in five steps when he is angry, let alone the Son of Heaven?

"The second great-uncle has been lying on the couch for several years, and he may die at some point. Without his backer, it's hard to say how the fourth room of the Jiang family will treat us! Fortunately, they have the weight of military power, and our house also has the advantage of the court! If you can promote Your Majesty's pro-government, even if it is only a nominal pro-government, the status of the Queen Mother will be weakened, so I can be much better off in the harem, not to mention, in the future, our room under the banner of Your Majesty can also make the fourth room have scruples......"

"It's just that Sifang also knows that their power in the court is weak, and they married the king of Huainan and pulled the king of Huainan, plus the master-apprentice relationship between Xue Chang and the brother of the nineteenth aunt's family, this matter has to be planned well, so as not to be self-defeating!"

Don't talk much about these battles in the palace, and say that in the Qin State Mansion, Qiu Yulan has taken care of Qiu Jinglan since he knew about the defeat in Western Xinjiang, and he only learned the news from the beginning of February, and now it is the end of March.

Jiang Yashuang was distressed, and she couldn't persuade her, so she ordered someone to send a message to Zhuang Man: "Your cousin-in-law has been in a bad mood for the past two days, you hurry over and talk to her!" ”

But he didn't want to call the person who sent the letter on the front foot to go out, Zhuang Man came on the back foot, and as soon as he entered the door, he didn't wait for Jiang Yashuang to be surprised how she came so quickly, so he complained angrily: "Ling drunk he wants to go to Xijiang!" ”

Jiang Yashuang suddenly realized that she didn't take the letter, but because her husband happened to catch up with her and wanted to find her, so she said: "Brother Yige and brother have a good relationship, and now that my brother is in danger, it is reasonable to want to help one or two." However, the current situation in Western Xinjiang is very bad, and the righteous brother has never joined the army, so I am afraid that he will not be able to help much, but let the brother distract him...... Did you tell your brother-in-law like that? ”

Zhuang Man said angrily: "Of course I said it! But he just didn't listen, and said that his father and mother would not allow it, so it was the same as last time, and it was a big deal to sneak over! ”

"He's gone?" Jiang Yashuang couldn't help frowning.

"No—" Zhuang Man gritted his teeth, "I stopped him!" ”

Jiang Yashuang was curious: "Then what are you doing so angry?" Didn't he listen to you? ”

"Who said I persuaded him to stay?" Zhuang Man gave him a blank look, "I told him a few times not to go, but he refused to listen, and when he was in a hurry, I gave him two punches...... Now his two eyes and sockets are blue, and he doesn't dare to go out to meet people at all, see how he moves! ”

Jiang Yashuang really didn't know how to say this cousin: "You are a woman anyway, can't you be gentle?" Always solve the problem with your hands, and carefully hurt the relationship between husband and wife! ”

"It's like you're not doing well with your cousin now!" Zhuang Man hit the nail on the head and said, "You dare to say that you haven't been beaten by your cousin?!" ”

“…… Hurry up and go in with your cousin, I don't have anything to tell you! Jiang Yashuang decisively ended the conversation between her cousins!

When Zhuang Man came to Qiu Yulan, someone with fast legs came over and told her what she said after entering the door, Rao is Qiu Yulan is now full of worries, and she can't help but be amused: "I said that Man'er was so virtuous and generous when she got married before, it was like a different person, and I thought that her arrogance was only before marriage, and she went to the gentle and virtuous lady when she left the cabinet, and it turned out that her nature was difficult to change!" ”

After all, she had been taken care of by Ling Zui for many years, and when she saw Zhuang Man, she scolded her: "You are really, what can't you say well, how can you do it?" Even if you do it, you will go to the place where you can't see it under your clothes! Hit in the face, how much does this hurt people's face? If the eldest princess of Maude knows, how can she not feel distressed? ”

"Cousin-in-law, do you really have to go to the Western Xinjiang just for him?" Zhuang Man said, "It's not that he doesn't know that he can't do martial arts, so how can he drag your brother back?" It's just drunken talk! ”

"And you're still beating him?" Qiu Yulan asked in surprise.
