"Well......" Shi Jiong recalled, "but I remember that the Queen Mother said that whoever helped her hatch that bird egg, she gave her the golden silkworm!" How did Princess Yu please the Queen Mother and get such a baby? ”

Dong Qianmo said: "Although I don't know much about the affairs in the palace, I also know that the concubines don't want to talk to the queen mother. If the princess's cousin's methods were only to curry favor, then the queen mother and her old man would not look down on her. ”

Shi Jiong asked: "Then how did she get the golden silkworm?" ”

Dong Qianmo said: "How to get it is not the key, the key is that after she got the golden silkworm thread, she made clothes, and after more than half a year, she didn't put it on once, isn't it too strange?" ”

Shi Jiong said: "How strange is it? Maybe it's because she cherishes treasures and is reluctant to wear them. Just like the brocades in my house, the brocades that are given to the maids, they are all good things at the bottom of the box, and no one wears them. ”

Dong Qianmo shook his head: "Brother Shi, you don't know the princess too well, do you still remember the lantern night tour of the Shangyuan Festival four years ago?" ”

Shi Jiong didn't know and shook his head. Li Zhouyu frowned and remembered something.

Dong Qianmo smiled softly: "Four years ago, my cousin-in-law was newly widowed, her husband, the young general Shangguan, died, and my cousin-in-law was only twenty years old, and she was the number one beauty in our Western Wei Dynasty. She planned to pack up and go back to her parents' house immediately, and after three months of filial piety, she would remarry, but Shangguan Yuze, the younger brother of Shangguan Shao General, was very indignant and resolutely blocked it. At that time, the Wei family and the Shangguan family had a very fierce quarrel, Lord Li, you must know about this, right? ”

Li Zhouyu said: "Yes, I remember that later, the Shangguan family wrote to impeach Wei Qihua's father, Wei Shangshu, on the grounds of other things, saying that he was in charge of money and grain in the household department, and for many years he had deceived the court by falsely reporting false accounts, and the evidence was conclusive. Once the crime is confirmed, at least it will be the end of losing his official position and dismissal. At that time, Princess Qianyu was still a princess, and she was very anxious after hearing about her father, so she took her sister into the palace and begged the queen mother to uphold justice. ”

Yes, Dong Qianmo smiled, that was the first time Wei Qihua entered the eyes of the Queen Mother, and it was Wei Moqin who brought her there.

In the past, under the second festival of the year, Wei Qihua also entered the palace to attend the banquet as a wife, her appearance was not unattractive, and her makeup was not eye-catching, but when all the noblewomen who entered the palace were dressed like that, Wei Qihua could only stand out from the crowd.

And Wei Moqin stood up and took Wei Qihua to see the Queen Mother, and the situation was different.

The Queen Mother saw that two palace beauties who looked the same, but were completely different from temperament to radiance, and she was happy at once, and since then she has liked Wei Qihua very much.

Wei Qi's painting is not like Wei Moqin's piano art, tea art, and calligraphy, which are all self-contained, and can be appreciated and played. But Wei Qihua also has her own set of methods, coaxing the Queen Mother to think of her every once in a while and recite her two sentences.

For example, in the name of thanking Wei Moqin, Wei Qihua gave Wei Moqin a bottle of peach blossom ice dew, which is said to be two drops each behind the ears and on the inside of the wrist, and the whole body has a clear peach blossom fragrance.

Wei Moqin liked it, put it on before entering the palace, and talked to the Queen Mother in front of her.

The Queen Mother immediately remembered Wei Qi's painting, and it turned out that Wei Qihua entered the palace with Wei Moqin on the day he was covered with peach blossom ice dew.

The Queen Mother can remember this taste because Bohai paid tribute to two small bottles of peach blossom ice dew, both of which were collected by the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother doesn't rub it, she usually takes it out and smells it.

The peach blossom ice dew painted by Wei Qi was not purchased from the tribute channel, but was purchased from the black market with a lot of money, and the amount of one bottle was more than two bottles of the queen mother, and it cost 890 taels of red gold, which was more than the salary of Wei Qihua's first husband for a year.

Wei Qi's painting only took a few times, and the whole bottle was transferred to Wei Moqin, such a big stroke, just to make the Queen Mother think of her once or twice through this special fragrance.

For those who can come in handy, Wei Qihua has always been generous, so for Wei Moqin, and the same is true for Mama Mao.

Mama is an old man in the Queen Mother's palace, because she is particularly good at raising birds, and she is the most important grandmother of the Queen Mother.

Wei Qihua spent a lot of money to buy information from Tianyi Pavilion, dug out the origin of Mama Tsuna, and knew that Mama Tsuna's was originally a Gu girl in Xiangnan, and she had been raising all kinds of Gu for many years, all for her son.

Mama Tsutomi's son was born with a crooked mouth and slanted eyes and swollen cheeks, and the Xiangshi gave a request that the child could not be raised. Mama Mo used the ancient method to raise Gu, used her son as a stand-in, and burned a Gu to death every once in a while, and her son became a little more like a normal person.

In this way, Mama Tsuta's son not only grew up, but was also smart and beautiful.

After finding out the details of Mama Tsuta, Wei Qihua tried to meet with Mama Tsuna, complimented her on being the first celebrity in front of the Queen Mother, praised her, and promised to spend money on a county official to Mama Tsuna's son, so that Mama Mura could help say good things to the Queen Mother, and made a special decree to allow Wei Qihua to remarry.

With the efforts of Wei Moqin, the princess of Yu at that time, the queen mother had already passed the anger with the emperor and pardoned Wei Shangshu's dereliction of duty.

However, the family rules of the Shangguan family are that men do not take concubines, women no longer have to take concubines, and the major general Shangguan sacrificed his life for the country, why did the emperor and the queen mother force people to revise the family rules because a widow was too beautiful and unwilling to be lonely?

Mama Tsuru didn't agree to Wei Qihua at first, and said that a few years ago, the Queen Mother had mentioned letting Mama Tsuru's son go to the Guard's Mansion to do things and give him a position. Mama Tsuru didn't want her son to be an official at all.

Wei Qihua does not believe in evil, because she does not believe that there is no one in this world who does not seek fame and profit. If you don't want to do either of these things, then maybe you are a resentful woman who wants to take revenge on someone.

Sure enough, Wei Qihua found out the clues as soon as he checked Mama Tsuru's husband through Wei Yechen.

Back then, Mama Tsuto was still a beautiful lady in her hometown, and her father was a big man with hundreds of silkworm farmers. It's no wonder that Mama is polite and responds decently, and has a temperament that is different from that of ordinary palace people, and has been praised by the Queen Mother.

Mama Tsuta has a wealthy husband, who is her father's tenant, and is a flamboyant person, who coaxes her father to hand over a piece of the family business to him to take care of.

Later, Mama Tsuto gave birth to a problematic son, and her husband took away the family property and ran away with Mama Tsuta's maidservant.

Mama Tsuto's father was also seriously ill, and he had no intention of taking care of Sangtian, and he was paralyzed by the creditor because of his debts, and after a few years of poverty and illness, he died miserably.

Mama hated that man, but she couldn't find anyone for many years. This is the biggest heart disease in Mama Tsuta's life.

Wei Qihua did what he liked, and bought all the intelligence stations of Tianyi Pavilion for seven days in a row.

On the third day, I found out the old bastard and tied him up to see Mama Tsuta. For this fragrant bait, Mama Tsuru has no reason not to eat it. Wei Qihua helped Mama Tsuru catch the old bastard, and Grandma Tsuru was grateful to her.

Although according to the old bastard, he has repented over the years, not only to change his mind and face to benefit the township, but also to believe in Taoism, and set up an immortal tablet for Mama and her son, which is worshiped all year round.

Mama still summoned the Gu things she had raised over the years, and served the old bastard inside and out.

In ten days, Mama took revenge on the old bastard and the servant girl that the old bastard took back then, and used the flesh and blood sacrifice of the dog man and woman to refine a Gu King.

It is said that this Gu King is very profitable, as long as it is used properly, it will come to whatever it wants, so the people in the Gu cultivation world call the porcelain jar of the Gu King "Cornucopia".

All this, Wei Yechen is very clear. Because he is a big mouth, he likes to go to Wei Moqin to talk and make her laugh. Therefore, Dong Qianmo can know all this.

Later, Mama Tsuru was grateful for the great kindness of Wei Qihua, and since then, Mama Tsuru betrayed the Queen Mother, who had the grace of knowing her, and worked wholeheartedly for Wei Qihua.

The place where Mama Tsuru can help Wei Qi paint the most is not because Mama Tsuru is a person who can eat well in the Empress Dowager's palace, but because she raised the Gu King.

Dong Qianmo didn't know what kinds of so-called Gu things were divided into, but he heard from Wei Yechen that Mama Mo asked for the Corpse Immortal Gu from the Gu King and put it into the body of the Queen Mother's favorite purple and blue macaw.

The Queen Mother touched her day and night, and gradually affected her sanity, and she was not as firm as before, and became a confused old man who listened to and believed partially.

********

"Even if the Queen Mother likes that Wei Moqin, she can't be so biased!"

When he mentioned this, Shi Jiong was a little annoyed, because Wei Qihua's former uncle Shangguan Yuze and him were good friends. Because Wei Qihua wanted to remarry, it hurt Shangguan Yuze!

Dong Qianmo said: "Princess Qianyu wants to help her father get rid of his crimes, this is also human nature, although the relationship between her and her mother's family is quite stiff, but blood is thicker than water, and she still has her heart to the Wei family at a critical moment." The Queen Mother was dedicated to upholding justice, but in fact, she only mentioned it to Her Majesty, and she was extrajudicial and appropriately let Wei Shangshu go. The relationship between the former princess and the current one has not been harmonious, and the former princess has never interfered in the matter of remarrying. ”

"Then why did the Queen Mother later reprimand Wei Qihua's little brother-in-law, Shangguan Yuze, and asked the Holy Lord to punish him to go to Northern Xinjiang to plant trees for three years, delaying his fame?" Shi Jiong asked angrily.

"It's no wonder that the Queen Mother is not to blame," Dong Qianmo said calmly, "At the beginning, the Queen Mother also said that the family rules of the Shangguan family are that men do not accept concubines, and women are no longer drunk. In the two years when Wei Qihua married Shangguan's wife, Shangguan Major General never took a concubine, and Shangguan's family also treated Wei Qihua well, so Wei Qihua should observe the festival and never mention remarrying. However, the princess's cousin is a person with a way, no one stands in her position to speak, but she has her own clever plan to remarry. ”

"W-What?" Shi Jiong's eyes widened, and at the same time, he wondered in his heart, with Xiaowei's intelligence network, he didn't know anything about these things, how could Dong Qianmo, a young girl, be able to talk eloquently, and there were no details that she didn't know?

"The princess's cousin and sister-in-law came up with a way to hit the idea into the queen mother's palace. She bought off Mama Tsuna, who is proficient in witchcraft and Gu arts," Dong Qianmo said, "Mama Tsuru has a Gu on the living creature that the Queen Mother often comes into contact with, a macaw, which affects the Queen Mother's wise decision-making of her old man. ”

Shi Jiong was stunned and said: "Aren't Gu things just live poisonous insects, used to poison people?" Could it be that a small Gu can still manipulate people's minds? ”

Dong Qianmo said: "Then it's not very clear, anyway, after Mama Mao died, my second sister and I wanted to release the Gu things in the parrot into the water, but those Gu didn't follow, and suddenly turned into a pool of murderous black tung oil, turning a living grandmother into no bones and blood." ”

Li Zhouyu thought about it and said: "In the past two years, the Queen Mother has been moody, and even Her Majesty has always avoided it. His Majesty begged the national teacher, but the national teacher did not enter the palace, but opened the eyes of heaven with great magic power, and told His Majesty that he saw something like witchcraft to bring disaster to the court. It seems that this is true. ”

Shi Jiong shouted in a loud voice: "I know this, after listening to the eunuchs around the emperor at that time, the news leaked, so the palace spread privately, saying that there was a poisonous woman in the palace concubine, the Empress Dowager Zhenzhen." When the Queen Mother heard this, she not only didn't believe it, but also became furious, thinking that the person who spread this rumor must be a disgruntled queen, and from then on she picked her nose and eyes at the queen. ”

"Speak carefully, twelve." Li Zhouyu reminded Shi Jiong to pay attention to the words.

"That's it, using Mama Mao's Gu, coupled with the superb acting skills of the princess's cousin-in-law, soon convinced the Queen Mother that the reason why Shangguan Yuze resolutely opposed the eldest sister-in-law's remarriage was because he coveted her beauty and wanted to dominate her for himself."

"How can it be!" Shi Jiong was furious, "Yuze has long had a confidante, what is Wei Qihua?" She deserves it too! ”

"Speak carefully, twelve." Li Zhouyu reminded lightly.

Dong Qianmo pursed her lips and continued: "So the Queen Mother issued a decree to allow the princess and cousin-in-law not to even have to keep the three-month filial piety period, nor do they have to follow the ancestral family rules of the Shangguan family, and they can remarry freely. On the other hand, it is indecent for the brother-in-law to covet the beauty of his sister-in-law, and it is not good for the reputation of the Shangguan family, and the old lady of the Shangguan family is the princess, and the royal face is also damaged. Therefore, this matter is well hidden, and even the guards don't know about it. ”

Shi Jiong asked: "If Wei Qihua wants to remarry, let her change it, what's the matter with Guan Yuze?" Why did he punish him so severely? ”

Dong Qianmo replied: "I don't know the specifics, I only know that Shangguan Yuze has a little sister who is a childhood sweetheart, and the two families are world friends, it seems that the princess's cousin doesn't like that girl very much, Shangguan Yuze stepped forward to protect her, which made the princess teach a lesson and planted a charge of humiliating the eldest princess." If it weren't for the fact that the Shangguan family was a veteran of the army, the punishment would be heavier than that of three years of confiscation. ”

At this time, Li Zhouyu felt that something was really wrong, raised his eyebrows and looked at Dong Qianmo, and asked: "How can the fourth lady talk about other people's family affairs, just like talking about your own family affairs, like a number of family treasures?" Princess Yu Wei Qihua is a cautious person, unless she is her confidant, she can know such secrets! ”

"Lord Li is confused, isn't he?" Dong Qianmo smiled, "I'm her confidant." I'm betraying her now, and I'm going to join the Guards. ”

"......" Li Zhouyu and Shi Jiong exchanged glances.

"What? Do you still want to hear it? Or are you willing to be in harmony with the princess all the time, and don't want to listen to me talk about it anymore? ”
