Chapter Twenty-Four: Night Talk
"That's it. The mourning family will help you again. Concubine Su seemed to be helpless.
Nie Yan was a little surprised when she heard this, would Concubine Su be willing to help again?
Concubine Su pointed to a middle-aged grandmother beside her and said to Nie Yan: "This is the bride grandmother in the early years of the mourning family, she has been in the palace for decades, and she has some face in each palace, so I will come to you in the future." Do you think so? ”
The implication is that this grandmother is enough to act as Nie Yan's eyes and ears.
But as soon as these words came out, Nie Yan didn't have any happy thoughts. If she really wants this grandma, it will be difficult for Nie Yan to hide anything from Concubine Su in the future.
Nie Yan said in her heart: Inserting eyeliner next to her is probably the real purpose of Concubine Su, and as for helping, it may just be an excuse.
Seeing that Nie Yan didn't respond for a while, Concubine Su said unhappily: "What? Not happy to have mourning people around you? ”
"The concubine doesn't dare." Nie Yan didn't admit it.
Concubine Su snorted coldly and said, "Do you think the mourning family is willing to get involved in your idle affairs?" ”
Nie Yan didn't answer, only listened to Concubine Su continue: "The mourning family knows that a few days ago, Qing Yu went to you. ”
I see! Nie Yan understood that Concubine Su was worried that she had the intention of using Su Qingyu, so she sent the grandmother around her, first, to keep an eye on Nie Yan, and secondly, she really helped Nie Yan solve her current urgent needs.
"Concubine Niangniang, General Su is here for the assassin's business, not for the concubine's invitation." Nie Yan felt that it was better to explain it clearly as soon as possible.
Concubine Su was noncommittal when she heard this, but said: "Although you are in a high position, after all, your foundation is a little weaker, and you will inevitably be calculated." When your wings harden in the future, it's not too late to refuse to mourn your family. ”
The implication is that Nie Yan just agreed, and it was useless not to agree.
Nie Yan smiled bitterly, she didn't know that Concubine Su, who seemed to be kind-eyed, also had such a strong time.
Although she said that, Nie Yan could feel that Concubine Su was kind.
Concubine Su sent someone here, just to prevent Nie Yan from having any entanglement with Su Qingyu, and removing this is actually beneficial to Nie Yan and harmless.
Therefore, Nie Yan no longer shirked, and responded with a smile: "The concubine obeys the order." ”
When Concubine Su heard this, she eased her expression and instructed her aunt beside her, "Ah Ying, you will go to Beichen Palace with Concubine Shu later." ”
"The slave obeys." After Mama Ying finished answering, she made a formal salute to Nie Yan and said, "Slave Ah Ying, I have seen Concubine Shuniang." ”
In the end, it is the old man next to the concubine, and the rules are excellent.
Nie Yan said with a smile: "Mama is exempt, and Mama Lao will mention it in the future." ”
Mama Ying didn't dare to say anything.
When the goal was achieved, Concubine Su sent Nie Yan back to Beichen Palace.
In the Beichen Palace, everyone was surprised that Nie Yan suddenly brought back a grandmother.
Especially when I heard that this grandmother was serving by Concubine Su's side, they were all in an uproar.
I thought that this concubine had no support in the Chu State, and she was easy to bully. I didn't expect people to be able to climb the big tree of Concubine Su in a blink of an eye.
To say that in this palace, except for Xiao Yu, the most noble person is not the queen, but the concubine Su who lives in a simple place and does not ask about the world.
Because when the first emperor was funeral, there was no queen on the throne, and Xiao Yu's biological mother died early, so there was no queen mother.
And Concubine Su raised Xiao Yu for a period of time when Xiao Yu was young, although she is still the title of the concubine, but her actual status is no different from that of the Queen Mother.
It's just that Concubine Su has never asked about palace affairs and has never seen the palace concubine, which makes many people often ignore her existence.
Ningkun Palace.
"You mean, Concubine Shu leaned on Concubine Su?" Empress Xu looked at Concubine Zhao standing under the hall with an unkind face and asked.
Concubine Zhao hurriedly said: "The concubine saw with her own eyes that Mama Ying next to Concubine Su returned to Beichen Palace with Concubine Shu, and Concubine Shu also asked people to clean up the house, it seems that Mama Ying is going to live with Concubine Shu permanently." ”
When Empress Xu heard this, she was silent in thought.
Concubine Qi, who was sitting on the side, took the opportunity to say: "Not only that, but the concubine also heard that Concubine Shu insisted on visiting Jiang Guifei despite the order of the queen mother. ”
Although she had just had a miscarriage, Concubine Qi was born in the end and recovered well, because of the fact that Concubine De was promoted to a noble concubine, Concubine Qi could no longer sit still, and ran to Queen Xu in three days.
Although Concubine Qi is proud, she also understands that Prime Minister Jiang's family is no worse than the Zhenguo Mansion, and Jiang Lan has already given birth to a prince for Xiao Yu.
"Bengong is not a fool to see Concubine Shu, how can he blatantly disobey the will of Bengong?" Empress Xu was a little unconvinced.
Concubine Qi naturally wouldn't say that she stopped the eunuch who went to Beichen Palace to convey Empress Xu's will, and Concubine Shu didn't know about it at all.
Concubine Zhao knows a lot about this matter, but how could she dismantle Concubine Qi's platform?
"The concubine guessed that Concubine Shu must have thought that Concubine Jiang had a bright future, so she ignored the will of the queen mother." Concubine Zhao said boldly.
Clear-eyed people know that Queen Xu is quite taboo about Jiang Guifei, and as soon as Concubine Zhao said this, she divided Nie Yan and Jiang Guifei into a party, and did not believe that Queen Xu would not make a move to deal with Nie Yan.
Empress Xu sneered, these two people thought that they could hide their little actions from themselves?
Originally, they designed it this way, so that they could borrow Concubine Shu to give Jiang Lan a dismount, but now Nie Yan suddenly has Concubine Su as a backer, if she still moves her, it will be a benefit from being fishermen.
Therefore, Empress Xu spoke for Nie Yan and said: "If you want to come to Beichen Palace, it seems that it is far away from Ningkun Palace, and it is not good for a slave to do things, and Concubine Shu may not have heard Xin'er." ”
Concubine Qi and Concubine Zhao were weak-hearted, so they stopped talking about Nie Yan and found another topic to greet Queen Xu.
Nie Yan didn't know that the act of bringing back Mama Ying could directly dispel Queen Xu's intention of taking her under the knife, and she was busy bathing and sleeping at the moment.
After a few days, Xiao Yu recruited Nie Yan again.
"Your Majesty, how can there be bruises on your body?" Nie Yan lay on Xiao Yu's chest, blinking and curious.
Xiao Yu looked embarrassed and said, "I am learning martial arts with General Su today, I think it is because I am busy with government affairs, and I can't compare to his daily diligent practice. ”
The implication is that the contest is lost.
Nie Yan said: "Your Majesty is the king of a country, will you also lose?" ”
"I'm also human, so naturally I can't do everything first." Xiao Yu said calmly.
"Does the king of a country make mistakes?" Nie Yan blurted out.
But soon Nie Yan reacted that she was disrespectful, and hurriedly said: "The concubine lost her words, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive me." ”
Xiao Yu's expression was uncertain, and he looked at Nie Yan for a while before he said, "The king of a country, there can be no mistakes." ”
Nie Yan didn't understand what Xiao Yu meant, but she didn't ask any more.
"The concubine ordered someone to fetch some ointment and wipe it for His Majesty, right?" Nie Yan turned the conversation and said.
Xiao Yu responded gently: "Okay." ”
