Chapter 268: Jealousy

Concubine Cui is deep in the palace, and she is not as well-informed as the prince about the outside world.

When he heard that the prince was coming, he thought he was coming to see him, and said with a smile, "Come in", and saw that his son's face was wrong, so he hurriedly dismissed the palace people, asked him to sit down in front of him, and asked with concern: "But what happened?" ”

"There are rumors in the imperial capital that the cripple of the Daosu family and grandson is the child's instigation behind the scenes!" The prince no longer concealed his worries in front of his biological mother, and said in a slightly faster tone, "Although the child didn't like these words, he didn't take them to heart - but he asked to see each other, but he said that he was afraid to doubt this matter......"

After a pause, Concubine Cui's expression became nervous, and then she said with difficulty, "I'm afraid it's from the hands of the emperor's grandmother!" ”

"What?!" Concubine Cui's pupils shrank, she subconsciously tightened her handkerchief, took several deep breaths to stabilize her emotions, and said urgently, "I knew that the Queen Mother would inevitably be partial to the cheap maid of the country - but Xiao'er don't have to worry, the slut of the Sikong clan was separated from her mother's family before, and the people she will leave and right are all arranged by the mother, as early as the summer vacation, the mother concubine has already asked people to give her a little bit of medicine, but I didn't expect the Queen Mother to hurt you, this will change her mind but it will become so fast, I originally planned to let Sikong have a seizure in a few days, lest the imperial doctor who asked her for the pulse before suspect it, since this is the case, then ......"

"Mother!" The crown prince interrupted her words and said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid it's too late for the concubine's plan!" After all, the imperial grandmother has changed her mind now, even if the third brother and sister have an accident tonight, can the third brother Ming'er go to propose marriage to the imperial aunt of the Jin Kingdom? So who can not doubt the cause of the death of the third sibling? Even if the mother concubine is perfect, but the wife dies, the third brother immediately asks to marry someone else, how can the imperial aunt of the Jin Kingdom not suspect that the third brother is affectionate, according to the mother concubine, the imperial aunt of the Jin Kingdom is very fond of Cousin Nie, how can she be willing to give Cousin Nie to a person who is affectionate? ”

Concubine Cui was stunned by the prince's words, and after reacting, her face suddenly turned a little pale: "That...... Right now......? ”

"The child is here to ask his mother and concubine, what has happened to the imperial grandmother recently?" The crown prince froze and said, "After all, as you just said, the imperial grandmother has loved the child for so many years, even if she has to consider it for the aunt of the country, it has only been a few days, how can her attitude change so quickly?" The child thinks that there is probably something inside this! ”

"Insider?" When Concubine Cui heard this, she stared for a moment and blurted out, "Is it related to King Zhao's choice of concubine?" ”

The prince hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”

"When I was in Cuihua Mountain before, the queen took advantage of the convenience of the girl to go out, and she looked up to the concubine for Zhao Wangxiang." Concubine Cui didn't know about King Zhao and Nie Wuying, and she didn't know that Queen Su had released the news that she was going to choose a concubine for her son, in fact, it was to dispel the suspicion of the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, so she could only tell her son what she knew, "But it will be on the mountain, and everything is inconvenient, so I only circled a few girls, and I plan to come back and then decide." ”

As a result, before she came back, something happened to Su Bofeng - Queen Su was worried about her nephew, and King Zhao's age was not to the point where she had to marry a wife, so she put aside the matter of choosing a daughter-in-law for the time being!

This shelf, "A few days ago, the Queen Mother heard that the queen cried several times for Su Bofeng's cripple, and she didn't think about eating and drinking for several days, and sent Yuguo to Weiyang Palace to comfort her, so she mentioned King Zhao's family affairs, it seemed that she wanted to share the queen's heart with this matter, so as not to let the queen continue to be sad!" ”

The prince thought for a moment, but he really couldn't see what this matter had to do with the Queen Mother's sudden change of attitude - just interrogated repeatedly, but Concubine Cui couldn't remember what else the Queen Mother had done recently.

As a concubine second only to the queen, she has been in the palace for so many years, even if she was demoted a few days ago, because her son is the prince, the foundation is still solid.

So the prince thought about it for a while and decided to go to Qingxi Hall to find out in person.

After all, if the Queen Mother has not decided to abolish him, as the eldest grandson who has always been favored, it is not wrong for him to go to the Queen Mother to pay homage; If the Queen Mother already has this intention, in the end she will do it, maybe there is still some regret for her grandson, he went in time, not to mention the Queen Mother's heart back, so that the Queen Mother hesitated for a while, and it was good to buy some time for herself.

With such an idea, the prince and Concubine Cui casually talked and then retired, and after leaving Xifu Palace, he went straight to Mingren Palace - Xifu Palace is very close to Renshou Palace, where most of the queen mothers lived in the Qianyong period, but it is quite far from Mingren Palace.

You have to pass through several palaces to get there, but the prince is in the prime of life, so it's okay to walk around.

It's just that he was only halfway there, and across a row of flowers and trees, he could only see people on the path, but suddenly a woman's sour and prickly voice came: "Yo! This little face, tsk! This palace feels relaxed and happy, and it is strange that I can serve His Majesty all day long, but I make these people in this palace idle all day long, and they don't know what to do! ”

The prince frowned slightly when he heard this, but he was now anxious to see the queen mother - not to mention that this woman called herself "Bengong", then she must be above the position of Sanpin Jieyu, this kind of high-ranking concubine, the prince is certainly not afraid, but when he sees it on the scene, he has to call him "mother concubine", it is not good to be rude. He didn't have the time to do it now, so he frowned and quickened his pace, intending to leave this right and wrong quickly.

I didn't want him to walk away a few steps, and there was a sudden "bang" in the bushes behind him, accompanied by the tearing of the brocade silk in the middle, followed by several palace maids who exclaimed: "Beauty! ”

The prince subconsciously looked back, and his eyes couldn't help but stare at it!

Between the broken branches and leaves, the green-shirted woman lay limply on the ground, half of her sleeves rolled up, revealing a clotted arm, and the newly scratched bright color on the arm was gradually oozing bloodβ€”this scene mixed with her panicked expression, which reminded people of the hibiscus after a storm in the summer.

It is clearly the weakness after being devastated, but it makes people feel relaxed and happy for no reason.

The prince looked at her, and there was a moment of distraction - when the warm beauty's eyes moved and she noticed his gaze, she was shocked, quickly gathered her mind, turned her head, and continued to walk.

Fortunately, Nuan Meiren didn't mean to ask him for help, and after her eyes swept over him, she wanted to get up without saying a word, and her palace maid naturally hurried over to help. However, the palace concubine who had embarrassed her before refused to just forget it, and actually walked out of the gap she smashed, and the embroidered silk shoes stepped on the back of the warm beauty's hand that had just supported her body with malice, and she screamed in pain and fell down again!

"Oops!" It was autumn in August, but the day in the imperial capital was still a little hot, so the palace concubine also took a fan in her hand, half covered her lips at the moment, and shouted in surprise, "Why is my sister so careless?" Hongu originally planned to help you, but you ...... Look at you, why did you just hand it to the foot of the main palace? Will this hurt? Do you want to ask a doctor to take a look for you? ”

As she spoke, a flash of color flashed in her eyes, but her feet became more and more forceful, and she crushed the back of the warm beauty's hand!

The warm beauty was so painful that her forehead was covered with cold sweat, her lips trembled for a while, but she lowered her eyes and said softly: "The concubine doesn't dare!" ”

"What is my sister talking about?" The palace concubine leaned over, admired her frightened appearance for a long time, picked up her chin with a fan, and said with a smile, "You are going to serve Your Majesty later, and you are injured on the back of your hand, so your work will naturally be affected, so you will not neglect Your Majesty at that time?" You ......"

"Fu Chongrong, you keep thinking about your father, why don't you go to Xuanming Palace to accompany you?" Leng Bu was caught up in a delicate voice, snorted coldly and cut off her words, and said, "But here I am entangled with the warm beauty, and I come to such a show at two ends in three days, you are not tired, and I am tired of watching this palace!" ”

The palace concubine followed the sound and looked at it, and saw that it was Princess Yushan leading the people not far away, looking at herself impatiently, her mind turned, and she moved her steps away, and said with a smile: "Your Highness doesn't know, I was talking to Sister Nuan, but she suddenly fell, I want to help her!" But since Your Highness doesn't like me to help her, forget it! ”

Seeing that Princess Yushan just pursed the corners of her mouth when she heard this, and looked at the warm beauty who lowered her head and rubbed her hands with a sympathetic look, Fu Chongrong's eyes rolled, knowing that it was useless to say more, so he said two more words and left.

After she left, Princess Yushan raised her chin and ordered her to pick up the warm beauty left and right - the warm beauty didn't care about the pain in her hand, and hurriedly thanked her, Princess Yushan played with a flower branch that was just broken, but sighed, and said with some hatred: "Although Fu Chongrong is one of the nine concubines, the position is above you, and her fullness is still given to her by the emperor's grandmother - but you are also a proud person in front of your father, you don't care about her a few words of ridicule, and you can still understand the rules and have grace, she was bullied like this, and she didn't even dare to reply, I heard that you Wuhuan people are fierce, why are you so useless as a princess? ”

The warm beauty laughed at herself when she heard this: she really likes Emperor Xianjia, and since Emperor Xianjia recuperated, as Fu Chongrong said, she has almost always served her.

But so what?

Emperor Xianjia is not a faint monarch who gets dizzy when he sees a beauty, he enjoys it, but he has never given a warm beauty any special treatment - in fact, she basically didn't dare to speak in front of the emperor, because at the beginning, she only tentatively made a small request, but Emperor Xianjia stared at her playfully and looked at the tea kung fu before she was faintly approved.

At the time of that tea, her inner and outer clothes and skirts were soaked in cold sweat, and although she took a shower and changed clothes after retiring, she almost contracted a cold afterwards!

The emperor didn't trust her at all - he liked her looks, but he was also defensive because of her beauty!

In the first month, the seizure of slapping her for the prince's biological mother, who knows what the purpose was?

All in all, her status in the emperor's mind is not as important as outsiders, including herself!

After the warm beauty clearly realizes this, let alone being spoiled, it's too late to be careful!

So Fu Chongrong was embarrassed, and she could only endure it.

After all, not only is her position inferior to Fu Chongrong, but the most important thing is that this Chongrong was personally promoted by the Queen Mother - when the Queen Mother planned to pass King Zhao out earlier, the Fu family, who was still Jieyu, spoke to the Queen Mother in public, and afterwards the Queen Mother reciprocated her and promoted her, and since then Fu Chongrong has a backer, and even Queen Su, who hates her deeply, is not good at doing anything to her on the surface.

What's more, it's a warm beauty who has always made the Queen Mother want to kill her?

However, these truths, Nuan Meiren can't and doesn't want to tell Princess Yushan, so she just bows her head and is silent at the moment.

Princess Yushan saw that she was really depressed like this, shook her head, threw the flower branch to the side of the road, and beckoned her palace maid to go away.

The warm beauty looked at the princess's back, bit her lip hard, and said to the left and right: "Help me go back to medicine!" ”

She will have to serve Emperor Xianjia later-although it is said that the back of her hand is injured in this position, and Emperor Xianjia can easily see it, but the warm beauty knows that this emperor will not stand up for her in order to show that he is not at all confused by beauty.

At least on the surface, no.

Otherwise, Fu Chongrong would not dare to do that.

"I don't know when such a day will be a head?" When the warm beauty left gloomily, she thought that Princess Yushan had just mentioned Wuhuan - although she was only a princess in Wuhuan a year or two ago, it seemed very far away when she thought about it now.

And the elegant and dusty boy became clearer and clearer.

When Jian Xubai never refused to marry......

This thought swirled in her mind repeatedly, and she was so frightened that she didn't know where to go if it weren't for the support of the palace people.

…… She didn't know that when she was in a trance reminiscing about Siren, there was also a pair of eyes behind her that were full of complicated eyes to see her leave.
