556 has just started (and updates.)
The queen and Concubine Ling had a conflict over the matter of the concubine, they had heard it before, but at this moment, it was really in front of their eyes, and everyone was stunned. The Queen Mother is even more novel, she has always been obsessed with the Queen's support for Wei Hongyan, but she didn't expect that time would change and she would be able to see this day.
The Queen Mother asked with interest: "Why, it turns out that you didn't discuss it?" ”
The queen woke up and turned around, but Hongyan spoke before her: "The concubine once showed the queen's mother, and the concubine also thought that the queen's mother acquiesced." ”
The Queen Mother didn't pay attention to what Hongyan said, she only asked the queen: "Is Concubine Xin's body much better?" ”
The queen stopped her back, pressed the uneasiness in her heart, and responded: "After the treatment of the imperial doctor, Concubine Xin is about to recover, and it is not as serious as Concubine Ling said, the concubine is with Concubine Xin every day, and she knows it very clearly." There is no need to send it back to the Forbidden City, since the emperor has planned to live in the Old Summer Palace in recent years, it is beneficial to keep Concubine Xin to recuperate. ”
The Queen Mother nodded and said deliberately: "It was not suitable for Concubine Chun to recuperate like that at the beginning, a good person left so early, so that the third elder brother was too sad to follow." It's a pity that the eighth princess is still so young, how can she leave her mother, or the queen is thoughtful, so she will continue to stay in the concubine in the Jiexiu Mountain House. ”
"The Queen Mother, Jiexiu Mountain House is the residence of the queen, and the main room of the middle palace is extremely noble, and I have never heard of concubines living with the queen." Hongyan insisted, "If both the Empress Dowager and the Empress feel that it is inappropriate to send Concubine Xin back to the Forbidden City, then they must also move out of the Jiexiu Mountain House and choose another place to live." ”
"It is not suitable to relocate in the first month of the lunar month, you don't understand such a simple truth?" The Queen Mother said coldly, "The Queen Mother is broad-minded in the world, so you naturally don't have her heart to worry about this little thing." ”
Hongyan insisted: "The concubine is for the queen's mother, and the concubine should not live with the middle palace." ”
The Queen Mother snorted and asked the queen instead: "What about the queen, it seems that Concubine Ling is very persistent." ”
The queen said indifferently: "The current matter of the Six Palaces is that Concubine Ying assists the concubines, so the concubines should not interfere." She looked at Concubine Ying and asked, "What if you were asked to make a decision?" ”
Concubine Ying was startled, thinking that the queen and Concubine Ling had quarreled, and no one would worry about her laba porridge, but the queen still didn't let her go, but both sides were important people, and it was not good for Concubine Ying to offend anyone, she smiled dryly: "The concubine is stupid, and the concubine can't even do small things." ”
Concubine Yu, Concubine Shu, and Concubine Qing on the side all looked away, never looking at the queen or the queen mother, they are all people who have a tacit understanding with Hongyan, although this is very sudden today, but they all understand that keeping their mouths shut at the moment is the greatest help to Hongyan.
The Queen Mother said impatiently: "This matter is not complicated, what is complicated is the dignity and humility in the palace, who else is there in the eyes of the concubine now?" ”
Hongyan curtsied and said: "The concubines are afraid, the concubines don't dare to disrespect the queen, but they just feel that rearranging the going and staying of the concubines is good for the queen and the twelve elder brothers, and a sick person is raised by the side of the queen and the prince, and the ministers outside should gossip." ”
The queen's face changed slightly, but she gritted her teeth and insisted: "Queen Mother, this matter has been decided by the concubine, and it is already unfortunate that the pure concubine has not recovered and walked out of the door of Xianfu Palace. ”
For the first time, the queen mother felt that the queen was pleasing to the eye, and said with a smile: "Then according to what the queen said, continue to leave Concubine Xin with you." ”
"Queen Mother......" Hongyan spoke again, but Shengsheng watched the Queen Mother's gaze fly like a sharp blade, she accepted it steadily, only to hear the Queen Mother say coldly, "Don't forget your proportions, according to me, the person who should go back to the Forbidden City to calm down and sober up is Ling Guifei." ”
The atmosphere in the hall was extremely embarrassing, and everyone looked at Ling Guifei being reproached by the Queen Mother, this woman who was held in the palm of the emperor's hand and was full of blessings for giving birth to children failed to pass the Queen Mother's level, and I don't know if they can have a good day in their lives.
The queen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but when she saw Hongyan being blamed and humiliated by the queen mother, she couldn't bear it, but she couldn't give in to this matter, these days Concubine Xin lives there with her, although she doesn't often meet, but when she meets, Concubine Xin will mention Brother Fu Qing intentionally or unintentionally, she thought that Concubine Xin was chasing after the wind and only knew some fur, but she didn't expect Concubine Xin to know so much, Concubine Xin was still a little girl in the boudoir in those years, but it seemed to have experienced it herself.
This made the queen very uneasy, and she became more and more convinced that there would be such a person who would publicize his affairs to the whole world when Concubine Xin fell.
The six palaces dispersed from Ningchun Hall, with the queen and the concubine as the respect, and the others should have waited for them to leave before leaving, but the queen stopped in front of the door and let the concubines leave first, naturally she blocked Hongyan in front of the door, and said to her: "Let's take a walk, there are some things that are not easy to say just now, now make it clear." ”
Hongyan shook her head, she understood that the queen had nothing to say to her, nothing more than to confess her past with Fu Erye, or to persuade Hongyan not to insist anymore without explaining the reason. But these two are not the answers that Hongyan wants, no matter how long Concubine Xin's matter drags on, she will go to the last step.
"The fifteenth elder brother can't leave the concubine these days, and he may be crying at this time." Hongyan bowed and politely refused, "The concubine will retire first." ”
Seeing that there was no one around, the queen couldn't help but say: "I told you that I have no intention of fighting with you, but in this matter, don't interfere again?" If you have to have a dispute like today, you know that the Queen Mother will never help you even if she knows right and wrong. ”
Hongyan lowered her eyes and didn't look at the queen, and insisted on the same: "The concubine also said that she will never give in to this matter, and the concubine will never dare to fight with the mother for anything, the concubine just wants to give herself an explanation." ”
The queen had nothing to say, seeing Hongyan leaving, Hua Rong came to support the master on the side, and sure enough, the queen's body seemed to fall softly, Hua Rong always hoped that the result would be Concubine Xin, she supported Concubine Ling more than anyone else, but unfortunately the queen would not compromise with Concubine Ling, nor would she listen to her.
Hongyan walked away and found that Concubine Yu was waiting for her in front of her, they were all worried and anxious, Concubine Shu took the initiative to greet her, looked Hongyan up and down, and asked with concern: "It's okay, the old lady didn't call you back to toss you?" ”
Hongyan smiled: "I didn't offend her anything, what did she do with me?" ”
The sisters walked together, and Concubine Yu couldn't help but say: "You have always been a smart person, what's wrong today, the Queen Mother is the one who knows that you are right and will never help you, what are you doing in front of her?" Now it's okay, let her deny this matter herself, and she will focus on you whatever you do, it's better not to mention it in front of her, since the emperor promised you, you will send people away directly one day. ”
But Hongyan's expression was relaxed, and she was not affected by Fang Cai's incident at all, Concubine Qing watched from the side, and said with a smile: "It seems that my sister has other plans." ”
Hongyan praised Concubine Qing for her carefulness, and said to Concubine Yu: "I'm just getting started, the most important thing now is to handle Yongqi's marriage, don't care about that kind of irrelevant person." Sister rest assured, I have been dealing with the Queen Mother all my life, and I still don't understand her old man's temper? I know this by heart. ”
Concubine Shu asked: "Did you deliberately provoke it today, and let the Queen Mother say that you were beaten for nothing?" ”
Hongyan nodded: "It's not in vain, now the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother must be thinking about what to do in the future, I'm afraid they don't want to do it, isn't that just to make that one comfortable." ”
"So what can we do for you?" Concubine Yu asked.
"Don't do anything, let's go about the old days." Hongyan smiled, "My sisters are happy, which is the biggest help to me." ”
Concubine Shu sighed: "In this case, we won't interject indiscriminately, so as not to make trouble for you, but you must be careful, even if the Queen Mother can't do anything to you now, but you have overdone it, and it is difficult for the emperor to be caught in the middle, and you will not even have the last backer." ”
Hongyan said gratefully: "With my sisters on the side to support and remind me, I can't be wrong." ”
At this time, the concubines and concubines dispersed into the garden again, and the matter of the Queen Mother and Concubine Ling in Ningchun Hall still seemed to be in front of them, and they almost didn't remember why they went to Ningchun Hall to gather in the first place.
Concubine Ying returned to her residence, and in the past, she drafted into the palace together, and now several people who are still scattered in the position where the nobles are often gathered in her room, talking about this matter, Concubine Ying covered her heart at the door and said: "They haven't mentioned the matter of Laba porridge yet, and my heart has not been put down." ”
Someone said: "The queen mother said for a while that she wanted to return the affairs of the sixth palace to Concubine Ling, and then said that she was sister, you are in charge of the six palace rooms, I think the queen mother is a little upside down, what happened to the concubine, so that the queen mother cares so much?" ”
Concubine Ying was upset, ripped open her shirt and said, "I don't want to care about the affairs of the Sixth Palace, but who should I talk to now?" ”
Her palace maid hurriedly said: "The slave maid thinks that no matter what, don't go to the queen mother at this time." ”
The queen had just returned to the Jiexiu Mountain House, and Concubine Xin was standing outside the door of the Warm Pavilion waiting for her, and the queen was upset when she saw her, so she didn't go to the Warm Pavilion, and threw it to Hua Rong and said, "Send her away, I don't want to see her." ”
Concubine Xin saw that the queen turned around and left, so she wanted to follow, Hua Rong naturally wanted to stop her, but Concubine Xin became more and more unkind to Hua Rong, and at this moment she also scolded: "Bold slave, block my way?" ”
Hua Rong said coldly: "Niangniang is tired, I don't want to see you at the moment, Concubine Xin Niangniang will go back first." ”
Concubine Xin raised her eyebrows and said: "I'll just ask Niangniang a word, if you don't stop it, it's all over now." ”
"If Concubine Xin has anything to say, just ask the slave." Hua Rong refused to back down.
"I heard that Concubine Ling is going to send me away again? Is there such a thing? Concubine Xin really asked.
Hua Rong looked at the people around Concubine Xin, she knew that if the queen didn't let the people on Concubine Xin's side, there would be a problem, and in the Xiushan House and Yikun Palace, no slave dared to spread the word nonsense.
