Chapter 375: Ulterior Motives!
Before, Baili Qingcang was just angry in his heart, angry that several princes were not measured, angry that they only thought about fighting for power and profit, regardless of the dignity of the royal family, and wanted to use this scene to teach them a lesson, who knew that after asking the results, he was full of disappointment.
The prince gave the things that were originally going to be given to the queen to the concubine, the third prince moved the dowry of his side concubine regardless of his face, and the fourth prince even played with a white wolf with an empty glove, and used porcelain to exchange things for the Westerners to give to the concubine, no matter what they said was true or not, this face has been lost, is this what a prince should do?
Concubine Li was in a cold sweat, her hands and feet were weak in shock, and she half leaned back on the chair before she slid down without losing her temper: "Your Majesty, this matter ......"
Baili Qingcang frowned and glanced at her, with a thick coldness and warning in his eyes. Concubine Li stopped suddenly, and swallowed the words of plea that came to her mouth. She can't fall out of favor in front of the emperor, otherwise the situation of the third and fourth children will be even more difficult!
The third prince and the fourth prince knelt on the ground, only to feel that their faces were hot, just now the time was urgent, and they came up with an excuse that they were in a hurry, but now that they think about it, they only feel that their face is completely empty, and their people are lost.
Baili Qingcang drank the teacup slowly, and put the teacup down after a long time: "Okay, get up, it's good that everything is clear, I hate being deceived the most." ”
The first sentence relieved them, and the second half of the sentence made them shudder in their hearts, they hated being deceived the most, their father was warning them, he clearly knew that they were lying, and he didn't have a seizure because so many people were present.
The originally lively banquet was suddenly a little cold, and Baili Qingcang glanced at everyone: "Today is the birthday banquet of the concubine, you don't have to be restrained, enjoy the flowers and wine." ”
"Yes." No one dared to refute the emperor's face, and the banquet immediately resumed its previous liveliness.
Concubine Li reluctantly sat in her seat, listening to the compliments below, only to feel a feeling of anxiety rising from the bottom of her heart, making her more and more restless, and it took a while to adjust her expression: "Your Majesty, in fact, the concubine has one more thing I want to ask you to agree to today." ”
"What's the matter?" Baili Qingcang turned his head to look at her, and there was an indescribable impatience suppressed in his eyes.
Concubine Li looked at Lin Feiyuan and pulled her to her side: "The emperor also knows that in a few months, this child will marry into the Dayue Kingdom, she was spoiled by the Lin family before, and the rules and the like are not well learned, just now Concubine Lan's sister also said that Princess Zhaohua's rules are the most commendable, and the two of them are also of the right age, and the concubine wants to bother Princess Zhaohua to teach Feijiao." ”
Shen Ninghua hadn't reacted yet, Baili Qingcang's brows had already wrinkled: "This is not appropriate, Ninghua is a princess, and she is not a grandmother who teaches others the rules, besides, she still has two children to take care of, they are young, and they are the ones who can't live without......"
"Yes, the concubine also knows, but after thinking about it carefully for a long time, she didn't find a more suitable candidate than Princess Zhaohua. The princess is smart and wise, as long as Fei Yuan can learn so many points, she will have the ability to settle down in Dayue Kingdom. Concubine Li said, her face couldn't help but show a deep sense of worry.
Lin Feiqian hurriedly knelt down with a plop: "Fei Fei Lao Niangniang is worried." ”
Concubine Li said this, Baili Qingcang couldn't help but think carefully about this possibility, Shen Ninghua is indeed smart, and she is not as narrow as other women, if Lin Feiyuan really learns some of her skills, it is enough to live well in Dayue Kingdom, in this way, the relationship between Da'an Kingdom and Dayue Kingdom can also be more stable.
"Ning Hua, what do you think of this matter?"
Shen Ninghua's eyebrows frowned slightly, the emperor asked like this, which meant that he had already made a decision in his heart, at this time she opened her mouth to refuse, I am afraid that she will not be able to push it down: "Ninghua obeys the arrangement of his father." ”
Baili Qingcang frowned and thought about it, his eyes couldn't help but look back and forth at Lin Feiyuan, he wanted to think carefully about whether this girl was worth it for him to use Shen Ninghua to teach.
Seeing his look, Concubine Li knew that he had agreed five points in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the concubines also know that this matter is a bit difficult for strong people. Originally, I wanted to find a few grandmothers to teach, but unfortunately the grandmothers are subordinates in the end, and the rules they teach are right, but I am afraid that they are not applicable in the real court. ”
Seeing that Baili Qingcang's eyebrows loosened slightly, she hurriedly increased her strength: "And the concubine has also thought about it, it is obviously not appropriate to let Fei Yuan go to Prince Yi's mansion to learn the rules, so I thought about wasting one or two hours of Princess Zhaohua every day, and asked her to come to the concubine's palace to teach Fei Yuan, it only takes a month, and when Fei Yuan learns well, the concubine will definitely give a generous gift to thank the princess." ”
Seeing that Baili Qingcang was still a little hesitant, Concubine Li glanced at Concubine Lan and glanced at her. Concubine Lan smiled and said: "Sister Guifei thinks that things are comprehensive, we can't compare, I have heard people praise it before, saying that although Princess Zhaohua is the emperor's righteous daughter, but compared with other princesses in Da'anguo, that gesture is not bad at all, it feels like a princess raised by a regular royal family, and the concubine has been yearning for a long time, but unfortunately there has been no opportunity to communicate with the princess, if the princess enters the palace in the future, the concubine can visit a few more times." ”
Shen Ninghua sneered in her heart, and her cold gaze turned around Concubine Lan: This Concubine Lan is really unusual, and she got to the point in a few words, to put it bluntly, although she has the name of a princess, she is not the emperor's biological daughter in the end, and it is not a loss of face to teach the rules of the young lady of the family.
Hearing Concubine Lan's words, Baili Qingcang finally nodded: "Okay, since that's the case, let's work hard." ”
Shen Ninghua stood up and saluted, her slender eyelashes covering Gujing Wubo's black eyes: "Yes, Erchen obeys the order." ”
Concubine Li finally showed a smile and smiled at Shen Ninghua: "It's really good, Feiyuan, why don't you thank the princess?" ”
Lin Feiyuan hurriedly stepped forward to salute, her face full of gratitude: "Courtier, thank you princess." ”
When the banquet was over, Concubine Li returned to Changqiu Palace, and her face sank. Mama Wei stepped forward cautiously: "Niangniang, are you still angry about today's incident?" ”
Concubine Li was silent for a long time, and suddenly swept the things on the dresser in front of her to the ground. The precious pearl hairpin headdress was scattered all over the ground, and a few pearls the size of a dragon's eye rolled around on the ground, and the corners of the distressed Mama Wei's eyes jumped, I don't know how much silver can be exchanged for this out......
"How could I not be angry? Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua, these two people ruined my birthday banquet! Concubine Li's eyes were on fire, she originally wanted to take advantage of this banquet to establish her authority, but she didn't expect a good banquet to make her lose face!
Mama Wei shook and hurriedly comforted: "The situation may not be as serious as Niangniang imagined, the emperor doesn't seem to be angry, and he waited until the end of Niangniang's birthday banquet before leaving. ”
Hearing this, Concubine Li's expression improved: "Today's matter is also I'm in a hurry, after Zhao Huiying died, the emperor has no intention of establishing a queen, although the palace is in charge of palace affairs, but in the end it is just a concubine, and the name is not right...... I originally thought of taking this opportunity to climb up again, but unfortunately...... The emperor refutes my face like this today, I am afraid that he also has the intention of warning me, and my father's move is in vain. ”
"Niangniang, the days will be long, the emperor will always see who is really good, besides, now you are the first person in the palace, why rush for a while? The battle for a while looks happy, and the winner may be the one who has the last laugh. ”
Concubine Li sighed, gently stroked the hair on the corner of her forehead, the woman in the mirror was beautiful, and her black hair was like a cloud: "What you said is good, the last one to laugh is the winner, and this palace does not want to be happy for a while." When Zhao Huiying was alive, Bengong bent her back every day, and gave birth to two sons, and she came over with that kind of life, what else is there to be afraid of? ”
Seeing her look better, Mama Wei breathed a sigh of relief: "Niangniang's mind is transparent, it's good to be able to figure it out." It's just that why did Niangniang suddenly change her plan today, not that she wanted to ...... Princess Zhaohua"
"Don't you look at what the scene of today's banquet is, the third prince and the fourth prince stabbed the basket, if the palace is no longer restless, but instead shoots at Shen Ninghua, I am afraid it will be difficult to end at that time. Moreover, didn't this palace get Shen Ninghua to the palace? After a month, you can't find the right opportunity to start? ”
Mama Wei smiled and flattered: "Yes, Niangniang is thoughtful, what she said is reasonable." ”
Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua, who returned to the mansion, were also thinking about this matter.
"Ning Hua, why did you say that Concubine Li suddenly insisted on letting you enter the palace?"
Shen Ninghua took off the beads and hairpins on his head, and glanced at him through the bronze mirror when he heard the words: "What else can I do, I'm afraid I'm restless, today you lost the face of the third prince and the fourth prince, she, as a mother, can't she find a way to get some back?" ”
"Hmph, there is no Zhao Huiying in the palace, she jumped out first, aren't you afraid that her father will kill chickens and make an example of monkeys?"
"Without waiting for the sharp blade and machete neck, how would she know to be afraid? Now I am afraid that I can only see the splendid future ahead, and I can't see the cracks and abysses under my feet! ”
Baili Junyi couldn't help but worry: "Although there are our people in the palace, but in the end there are some whips beyond the reach of the whip, you will enter the palace every day in the future to teach Lin Feiyuan the rules, I am afraid that ......"
Shen Ninghua smiled: "I'll take Qingque in." ”
"Blue Sparrow?"
Shen Ninghua smiled slyly: "I entered the palace to teach Lin Feiqian the rules, do you want me to personally demonstrate how to bow and kneel?" Naturally, someone has to replace me, isn't Qingque very suitable? ”
Baili Qingcang couldn't help laughing: "Yes, Qingque is very suitable." ”
