Chapter 456: Blind Her Father's Brother's Remarkable Exploits
Concubine Shu was full of heaviness and helplessness, but she couldn't help laughing when she heard this, and said, "Queen Mother, this child is likable." β
"The mouth is sweet, but it's a little silly." With such a cute and well-behaved daughter-in-law, how could Yu'er be dissatisfied, but she also said, "Don't boast to your face, the concubine, she should be arrogant." β
Concubine Shu said: "The child is still young, you just have to love it more." β
Yuan Xi lowered her head, she dared to be coquettish to the emperor now, and dared to toss in Fulin's arms, but if the emperor was the heaven of the Qing Dynasty, then the queen mother was the heaven of heaven, how could she be presumptuous.
"Otherwise, let's go see the queen." Yu'er said to Concubine Shu, "It's hard for you to come out for a walk, the queen is not in good health these days, let's go see her together." β
Concubine Shu didn't care, the queen mother invited her naturally, Yuan Xi sent them all the way to the vicinity of Kunning Palace, and the queen mother instructed her: "Kneel down, the queen is not happy to see you." I said to go to your house and have a look, there will be opportunities in the future. β
Yuan Xi saluted the two of them, and watched the Queen Mother and the Concubine turn into Kunning Gate before going back to Jingren Palace.
In the dormitory of Kunning Palace, the queen leaned on the mat with her hair scattered, staring out the window in a daze, and was indifferent when she heard the movement of the driver outside.
It wasn't until she saw Concubine Shu enter the door together that Meng Guqing made a move to go to the ground, but she was naturally stopped by Concubine Shu, and she said gently: "Why did Niangniang lose weight like this?" Can't eat in the summer? β
Tana took the palace maid to bring the pear chair for the queen mother and the concubine, and Yu'er sat down and took a few glances in the room.
Although the furnishings and utensils have been well replaced, the lacquer water that has been scraped off on the feet of the beams and pillars is mottled, and a little bit of the dignity and solemnity of the middle palace has been lost.
How old is this child, to the point where he has to use manic violence to vent his hatred?
Concubine Shu said some words of comfort and concern, this is what she is best at, and it is also the purpose of Yu'er bringing her here, Meng Guqing is at least measured, and she doesn't want to lose face in front of outsiders, if Yu'er comes alone, I'm afraid that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can quarrel, and even the faΓ§ade work can't be done.
After drinking tea, the two of them were leaving, except for echoing Concubine Shu's words, Yu'er herself barely said anything, and both of them asked Meng Guqing not to go down to the ground to send each other.
Tana sent the queen mother and the concubine all the way outside the palace gate before returning, watching the little palace maids move the pear flower chairs, she knew that the queen mother was just doing it for outsiders, and she didn't plan to do anything about the discord between the emperor and the queen.
The queen leaned weakly on the head of the bed, and when she saw her approaching, she asked, "Why did they come together, and the Queen Mother specially invited Concubine Shu to come?" β
Tana said, "I heard that it came from there, so I stopped by to see you." β
"There?" Meng Guqing was impatient, grabbed the pillow and still had Tana's body, "Talking about people, tell me to guess what?" β
Tana hurriedly said: "Yes, it was the Queen Mother who went to visit the concubine with Concubine Shu." β
Meng Guqing trembled, although she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she knew that the woman was locked up and tortured by the Queen Mother, and everyone who saw it said that the concubine was like a withered tree, very terrible and pitiful, and the Queen Mother still didn't allow her to die.
"What does she mean?" Meng Guqing burst into tears, "Deliberately? When you have deposed me, you will send me to that place. β
Tana hurriedly said: "Don't think nonsense, how could the Queen Mother treat you like that." β
Meng Guqing cried and said, "It will be, I scold her son every day, that old woman must hate me to death." Tana, even Amma doesn't care about me, and wants to depose me with them, I have no hope. β
Tana persuaded bitterly: "But you still have the emperor, as long as you are good, the emperor will never leave you, Niangniang, think about it yourself, what have you made the emperor angry these days." β
"And what about him bullying me?" Meng Guqing covered his face in pain, "I can't learn the appearance of those sluts, I can't learn to coax him like that." β
Tana said: "You don't need to learn those coaxing skills, as long as you restrain your temper a little, don't shout at the emperor, and you will be peaceful." When you were asleep, the emperor came to see you, and the slaves and maids could see that the emperor was very worried. β
Meng Guqing sobbed, gradually calmed down, and asked her, "He came to see me, is he really worried about me?" β
On this side, Yu'er had already separated from Concubine Shu and returned to Cining Palace, but for the whole day after that, Su Mala ignored her.
Yu'er was also stiff, the master and servant were in a stalemate until sunset, she couldn't help it, avoided the other palace maids and eunuchs, and asked, "What did you do to show my face, but it turned against you." β
Su Mala knelt down and said, "The slave and maid deserve to die, please punish the queen mother." β
Yu'er glared at her angrily, but it didn't take long for her to soften, and she pulled Su Mala up: "I'll compensate you, don't be angry." β
Su Mala turned his face away and said, "How can the slave and maid be angry with you." β
Yu'er smiled: "Okay, okay, I'll compensate you." β
Su Mala looked serious: "Such a good child, what to do if you are frightened, you can really think of it." Why don't you bring those nobles with broken mouths and bad hearts over to make rules, they are the ones who should be scared, at such a young age, how can they learn to be mean and bitter one by one, so you don't care. β
"You really hurt Yuan Xi." Yu'er smiled, "You don't want Barya anymore?" β
"Barya is obedient, where is it like some people, after the age of forty, still like a child, thinking about one out and one out." Su Mala snorted and walked away.
Now in the entire Qing Dynasty, the only thing Yu'er didn't dare to provoke was Su Mala, so she could make her happy, so she put on a straight face and said: "You are really capable, I can coax people now, and I can't even take the turn of Fulin." β
Su Mala said solemnly: "How dare the slave and maid ignore your dignity, but ......"
Yu'er knew her thoughts, and sighed: "Fu Lin likes it, Yatu likes it, and even Concubine Shu likes it, not to mention you and me." Our liking is grace for Yuan Xi, but we are afraid that the favor is too much, and she is wrong at a young age. It is not a bad thing to let her know some of the cruelty in the palace, even if she is so scared that she can't sleep for a few nights. Who knows what kind of life she will experience in the future, but I want her to understand that good and evil are rewarded, don't be confused. β
Su Mala asked, "Do you want to cultivate the Tong nobles with your heart?" β
Yu'er bowed her head: "Try it, I don't know how long I can live, the affairs of the harem must be taken care of by Fulin, and the queen has no hope, so she can only choose from the harem." Although my aunt was in power back then, my sister and I often took care of the affairs of the harem, even if Meng Guqing had been in Kunning Palace, there was no reason for her not to do things by herself, and she didn't allow others to do it. Yuan Xi can't be stupid, she will be a favored little nobleman all her life, and she will be blind to her father and brother's great exploits. β
It was dark, when the meals in Jingren Palace were removed, Fulin happened to come over, and when he saw that the dishes and dishes were almost the same, he couldn't help but smile, and when he entered the door and saw Yuan Xi rinsing his mouth, she hurriedly turned her back and picked it up before coming to greet her, and said, "Why does the emperor always come suddenly?" β
Fu Lin said angrily: "Otherwise, you are waiting with your eyes open, and you are not hungry?" I've eaten, and if I have something to do in a while, I'll come to see you, you've seen the world today, right? β
