Chapter 61: The Great Defeat

The next day, Quezhi Palace.

Early in the morning, Jiang Huizhi sent the emperor away with low eyebrows, and only sat down to freshen up when he returned to the dormitory, and the palace people told the queen that the inner servant in front of the queen was coming.

"Father-in-law, please take a seat!" Jiang Huizhi knew that he must have come with bad intentions, sneered, hastily cleaned up, and when he walked outside, he had already changed his face with a pleasant face, and said gently, "But what does the queen mother command?" ”

"Back to the words of the concubine, the queen said that it is now February, March is the Holy Birthday Day, and April is the descent period of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Yongfu!" The chamberlain indifferently conveyed the queen's order, "Now that the queen is grounded, I am afraid that you will have to handle these things when the time comes...... The queen is afraid that you don't understand this, so let the old slave tell you in advance! ”

Jiang Huizhi was stunned, his face changed, and then he smiled: "The queen mother is really thoughtful and kind-hearted...... Do you still ask your father-in-law for advice? ”

"How dare you be the 'advice' of the concubine?" The waiter said unhurriedly, "The queen mother said that the queen mother said earlier that this year's Holy Birthday Festival will not be a big event, at most it will be a casual banquet for her own people." Therefore, this year's Holy Birthday Day is held as a family feast. Of course, it is impossible not to invite a guest, but this has to be considered by the concubine! ”

He also said, "And Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Yongfu is the biological daughter of the Queen Mother, and her identity is no better than that of other eldest princesses!" The descent ceremony of His Royal Highness will naturally be held ceremoniously! I don't know what the concubine thinks? ”

Jiang Huizhi smiled: "Niangniang's words are reasonable!" Please ask your father-in-law to tell the queen mother, and the palace will definitely do things beautifully according to her wishes! ”

The waiter was not wordy, and when he saw that the words were brought, he waved the dust: "The old slave retires!" ”

…… After the chamberlain left, the personal palace man came up and asked, "Niangniang really wants to worry about these things, don't you go to the queen mother to serve?" The queen's move is clearly not to let you get close to the queen mother! ”

"The Queen Mother is not the point, she is the person personally selected by the Queen Mother, and there is the Duchess of Eguo to help speak, the Queen Mother's mind is not something that the palace attendants can be brought over in a few days!" Jiang Huizhi sneered, "Her real purpose is to be afraid that this palace will get along with Your Majesty for too long, so that Your Majesty will snub their mother and son!" ”

"Then why does the lady still agree to organize the Holy Birthday Festival and the descent ceremony of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Yongfu?" The palace man hurriedly said, "These two things should be done well, once something goes wrong, it will be troublesome!" Moreover, since the queen clearly pushed these two things to the mother, she must be uneasy and kind! How can you not obstruct it? When the time comes, it is just right to embarrass the mother - why is the mother really suffering? ”

"She is grounded, do you think in this huge palace, who will come out if the palace doesn't come out?" Jiang Huizhi bit his lower lip lightly and sighed, "Is it just ignoring the Queen Mother's holy life, and Yongfu has declined?!" ”

The palace people rolled their eyes and said: "When the queen was punished before, the queen mother intended to let you take the sixth palace temporarily!" At that time, didn't Niangniang say that you wouldn't take care of the palace and excuse yourself? Let's just say you won't do either of ......."

"Do you know why the queen chose these two things to occupy the time of the palace, so that the palace would not continue to go to the Taishi Palace to serve the queen mother and meet His Majesty?" Jiang Huizhi said lightly, "After all, she is grounded now, and it is already negligent for her inconvenience to ask the Queen Mother for peace, how dare she openly stop me?" ”

"But whether it is the Holy Birthday Day or the descent of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Yongfu, it is something related to the Queen Mother. The latter is a major event that the Queen Mother will always worry about even if she is sick on the couch...... She sent the palace to do these two things, and when the Queen Mother found out, not only would she not blame, but she would think that she was thoughtful! ”

"That's not all-it's better that the palace isn't good enough, so she doesn't have to say it herself, and the queen mother will also send a message to her not to be grounded and come out to do these two things! If this palace says that it will not do it, it is equivalent to letting her lift the ban immediately! ”

The palace people were thoughtful: "Speaking of which, the queen just wants to be a good person!" On the surface, he reminded Niangniang to handle the Queen Mother's Shengshou and the decline of the eldest princess, but secretly prepared to make the Queen Mother and the eldest princess misunderstand Niangniang - it's good to change her disposal and cancel? ”

"She does make a good person!" Jiang Huizhi said lightly, "As for whether she will do these two things in this palace, it's hard to say, after all, she can't preside over it in person now, she can only send her subordinates to remote control, in case she is seen through, it will be over!" Bengu thinks that she is more likely to rely on the fact that Bengong has no experience and mislead! Anyway, you also know that the Queen Mother has always loved her, and if there is any reason, the Queen Mother is willing to let her out! ”

"Is this asking the mother to make her wedding dress? She thought so beautifully! The palace man said angrily.

Jiang Huizhi was very calm: "She is the wife of His Majesty, and she is the natural lord of the Six Palaces!" Of course, she has to take responsibility for something that goes wrong in the palace, but she can also share the credit for the things that the people in the palace have done...... Didn't you think that the Holy Birthday Festival in March and the Yongfu Festival in April would fall? It's just that with the position of the palace, and the queen mother's dislike for the palace all the time, mentioning it will only be suspected of ulterior motives! ”

"Then the lady just let the queen take advantage of her?" The palace people asked unwillingly.

"How can it be so easy to take advantage of the palace?" Jiang Huizhi sneered and said contemptuously, "If this palace has done everything well, what are you going to use her to come out for?!" Besides, did she think that after taking over these two things, she wouldn't be free to go to the Taishi Palace? Holy Birthday is like that every year, and this year is nothing more than the Queen Mother's reluctance to steal the limelight from Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Yongfu on her birthday! As long as there are no big forks, the Queen Mother won't care at all! ”

"So what I really need to worry about is the descent ceremony of the eldest princess of Yongfu, about this ......" Jiang Huizhi had a sneer on his face, "This palace remembers that when the first emperor was still there, the queen mother once asked the nineteen uncles of the palace to assist His Majesty in drafting a specific charter for the descent ceremony of Princess Changle in order to let the ministers recognize His Majesty's practical ability, and also prepared it for the eldest princess of Yongfu!" It's ready-made! ”

The palace man hesitated: "But is the nineteenth prince willing to take it out?" The maid feels that the four rooms are eccentric to the queen! ”

"Didn't you hear what Hongu said?" Jiang Huizhi glanced at her, "It's the Nineteenth Uncle who assists Your Majesty - doesn't Your Majesty also have it?!" It gave Hongu a chance to talk to His Majesty...... Hey! ”

…… On the Taishi Palace, Empress Dowager Jiang lazily asked Lady Lin: "How is the palace now?" ”

"The queen sent someone to remind Concubine Jiang about the big things to be done in March and April." Lady Lin said softly, "It's not a big deal, don't worry about it!" ”

Empress Dowager Jiang ignored this, squinted and pondered for a while, and was about to speak, when a palace man with a hurried expression suddenly rushed into the hall: "Niangniang, something happened in Xijiang!" The grain and grass of the Zhenxi army were burned by the spies, and the whole army was defeated! ”
