Nan'an City, south of Tian'an City, is like a giant axe splitting the ridge, and the east and west ridges form a barrier to protect the city. As the "southern barrier" of the imperial city of Cheonan, the geographical location of Naman Fortress is very important.

The Prince's New Politics was experimentally implemented in this city.

The so-called new policy of the crown prince, that is, the prince of the dynasty, who has been five years old, must implement the new policy and uphold the virtues of the monarch, which is the royal ancestral training of the past dynasties of Daya.

There are still three days left before the New Deal inspection period. Nan'an City has become the place of great attention, the emperor ordered 8,000 Praetorian Guards to rush to Nan'an City to maintain order, and the whole city is heavily guarded.

However, the most lively at the moment is the imperial palace Kunyang Palace. Due to the new policy of the crown prince, a few days ago, Emperor Honghua issued an edict to hundreds of officials, named Su Guifei as the queen, named Yixian, and officially held a ceremony today to award the queen's treasure book and treasure seal.

The harem sings and dances, and it is happy.

In Kunyang Palace, Empress Yixian was richly dressed and beautiful, sitting on the back seat, accepting the congratulations of the harem concubines.

"Congratulations to Niangniang, congratulations to Niangniang. The concubine had long had a premonition that the queen's position must be none other than Niangniang, and now it seems that this is indeed the case. The person who spoke had a flattering voice and a flattering look on his face, it was Xiang Concubine.

She is the daughter of the prefect of Cangzhou, she has just entered the palace for a year, and she has no power in the harem, and she is attached to Concubine Su.

Empress Yixian smiled lightly and said: "Inheriting my sister Jiyan, this palace is also inheriting His Majesty's love, so that I can have this honor, and the affairs of this harem will be complicated in the future, and I will have to bother the sisters to work together." ”

Although she is over forty years old, she is well maintained, she looks like she is only twenty-eight years old, and the years have not left any traces on this woman, how can such a woman keep a man's heart?

In fact, since the previous queen Empress Chongde, Emperor Honghua has never moved the idea of being crowned, but he favors Concubine Su alone. It was not until five years after the crown prince was canonized, and at the suggestion of the ministers, that he was established.

Empress Yixian has a beautiful face, a smile in her eyes, and a gentle and graceful face. But who knows how much effort she has spent for this position over the years, and now that she has finally come out, what echoes in her heart is not joy, but melancholy.

This majestic deep palace, the emperor's favor, how many women once wanted to enter the palace gate and seize the supreme glory. But when I entered the deep palace, I realized that those supreme graces, glory and wealth were so unattainable, and if you peeked into their corners, you had to pay a painful price, such as kindness, conscience, and conscience.

And that's not all she has to lose now? She sighed, but the smile on her face remained the same.

"Niangniang is so virtuous, this queen's position naturally requires Niangniang to be so virtuous to be competent, right, Sister Roufei." Liu Zhaoyi smiled softly, but she couldn't reach the bottom of her eyes.

Concubine Rou had been sitting upright, smiling gently, and not speaking, and when she saw Liu Zhaoyi mentioning herself, she nodded and said, "What my sister said is extremely true." ”

Empress Yixian's gaze swept over Concubine Rou's smiling face, a trace of imperceptible mockery flashed in her eyes, and she said with a smile: "Thank you sisters for your love, today I will wait for the sisters to talk about it, and the sisters are not polite." ”

"That's natural, as long as the mother doesn't think the concubines are noisy." Xiang Concubine said flatteringly.

"Hmph." Concubine Lian, who had been expressionless and as cold as frost, snorted coldly and stood up, "Congratulations to the concubine, but the concubine is not feeling well, so she will retire first." Sister Xu, your wind and cold are not yet good, but you have to go back to the palace together. ”

Xu Liangdi, who looked demure, smiled gently, got up and said: "The concubine congratulates Niangniang, but the concubine occasionally feels cold, and then she is afraid of ruining the interest of the sisters, so she will retire first." ”

Empress Yixian sneered in her heart, but her face remained silent, and she said softly: "Since the two younger sisters are unwell, let's go back to the palace to rest." ”

Concubine Lian and Xu Liangdi saluted and retired and left together.

As soon as they left, Liu Zhaoyi also got up and said lightly: "Queen Mother, the concubine remembered that today was the day when Yun Tilt entered the palace to meet her, and the concubine retired. ”

"My sister has a deep mother-son relationship with His Royal Highness King Rong, and this palace will naturally take care of it, so retreat." Empress Yixian smiled, but there was already coldness in her smile.

"Queen Xie, the concubine retires." After saying that, he flew away.

The only ones left here were Concubine Rou, Concubine Xiang, and Concubine Ning and Wei Jieyu, who had not said a word.

"Queen Mother, today is the canonization ceremony of the Niangniang, such a happy event, this concubine, Concubine Rou, Liu Zhaoyi is really rude." Concubine Xiang said with disdain on her face.

Empress Yixian hooked her lips and smiled: "Where is my sister, the three sisters have important things to do, and the palace is not reluctant." What's more, as the head of the harem, I only wish that all my sisters are healthy and live in harmony. ”

Concubine Xiang said: "The queen is too generous, otherwise how dare they be so bold." ”

"Presumptuous." When Empress Yixian saw that she dared to talk such nonsense, she couldn't help but reprimand, "Concubine Xiang, you are a concubine, how can you talk nonsense." ”

As soon as Concubine Xiang said herself, she knew that she had said the wrong thing, and was shocked by Queen Yixian's words, so she hurriedly fell to the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The queen mother is angry, the concubine deserves death, the concubine just didn't check for a while before talking nonsense, the concubine is wrong, please forgive the queen." ”

Seeing this, Empress Yixian sighed: "That's it, you can get up." ”

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Concubine Xiang stood up tremblingly.

Empress Yixian's eyes swept over the other three, and she said lightly: "All sisters must be tired, so let's retreat." ”

"The concubine retired." As soon as her voice fell, all the concubines retired one after another.

After they left, Empress Yixian sat down in her chair with a tired face.

"Mother, you need to rest for a while." Wen Xiang, the personal palace maid, said in a low voice.

Empress Yixian didn't answer, squinted, her face was tired, and she sighed in a low voice for a while: "It's cold in the high places······"

In her sigh, a palace maid came to report: "Niangniang, Her Royal Highness the princess has come to greet her." ”

"Oh, it's Junhuang here." Empress Yixian's spirit was shocked, and her face was happy.

"The Queen Mother." Before the Huangfu Junhuang people arrived, they heard it first.

With a gust of fragrant wind and the sound of ringing, the beautiful woman with a graceful posture has bowed down: "Junhuang congratulates the queen mother on her ascension to the throne." ”

Looking at the girl in front of her, Empress Yixian's eyes were full of pity, and she said softly: "Junhuang, get up quickly, let the queen mother take a look." ”

Huangfu Junhuang grinned, sat beside Empress Yixian, hugged her arm, smiled with her eyebrows, and captivated the country and the city.

"The Junhuang in this palace is really getting more and more beautiful." Empress Yixian said lovingly.

"Junhuang was born by the queen mother, so she is naturally beautiful."

"You little clever ghost, you know how to be happy after coaxing your mother." Empress Yixian nodded her nose and said, "And what did you say you have been doing these days, why didn't you come to the queen mother to say goodbye?" ”

Huangfu Junhuang has been staying in Qi'an Houfu for the past few days, and when she saw Empress Yixian asking, she couldn't help blushing, and said weakly: "Junhuang has been a little busy these days. ”

"Busy?" Empress Yixian seemed to smile, "But how did this palace hear that you have been living in Qi'an Houfu?" ”

Huangfu Junhuang saw Empress Yixian's explanation, his face turned even redder, and he whispered: "Junhuang, isn't there something to ask Chonghua for help." ”

Empress Yixian looked at her beloved daughter's delicate appearance, and couldn't help but quip: "Chonghua Chonghua, it's called so intimate, it seems that the baby daughter of this palace has also grown up." ”

"Oh, the queen mother is good or bad, Junhuang doesn't care about you." Huangfu Junhuang's face turned crimson, turned his head to the side, and said angrily.

"Okay, okay, the queen mother won't make fun of you."

Huangfu Junhuang was relieved at this time, with a smile on his face, he suddenly thought of something, his eyes rolled, and he said in a low voice: "Queen Mother, if it is······ If it is Junhuang······" Speaking of this, his face turned red again, "Will the queen mother help Junhuang?" After speaking, his eyes were as clear as water and looked at Empress Yixian with hope.

Empress Yixian saw her spitting, but she understood what she meant, and couldn't help but smile: "What does this palace think, don't worry, you are the emperor of this palace, and this palace naturally wants to help." ”

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Huangfu Junhuang's face was full of joy.

"As soon as your prince's brother's new policy inspection is over, the queen mother will tell your father and the emperor, is it okay for your father to give you a marriage?" Empress Yixian said softly.

Huangfu Junhuang's face was slightly red, and he lowered his head and said softly: "Junhuang is all up to the queen mother. Her heart was filled with joy, and she knew that if the queen mother opened her mouth, she would definitely get the man.

Empress Yixian looked at her beloved daughter who was already in love, and a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes.

She has been thinking about how to win over Qi Anhou and really use it for the prince, but Junhuang has brought her a chance, how could she let go of such a rare opportunity? Qi An is waiting for this chess piece, she is going to decide.

Fushoumen, Xu Liangdi and Concubine Lian waved away the palace maid and walked slowly.

"Sister Lian, if you act like this, the queen will definitely be angry with you, you have to be careful." Xu Liangdi's face was worried and admonished.

Concubine Lian was not afraid at all, and her beautiful face was even more cold as frost and snow, and she said in a cold voice: "What is there to be afraid of in this palace, she has done all these bad things, she is ruthless, but the person who hides the knife in her smile can ascend to the back seat, it is really God's eyes." ”

Xu Liangdi hurriedly covered her mouth, looked around, and saw that there was no one around to put her mind at ease, and said in a low voice: "Sister Lian, you must not say this, if these words reach the ears of His Majesty and the Empress, it will be a capital crime of killing the head." ”

Concubine Lian snorted coldly, looking extremely disdainful.

Xu Liangdi knew her temperament and sighed: "Sister Lian, the queen is in the limelight, you and I must not act recklessly." ”

Concubine Lian was extremely unwilling, and said coldly: "Sister Xu, if it weren't for King Mu······ How could the crown prince fall into the hands of that slut's son. ”

Her words were not finished, but Xu Liangdi understood her words, thinking of Huangfu Jingming, she couldn't help but feel sour in her heart, and said in a low voice: "Sister Lian, don't say that, I can use Jingming's blessing to get out of the cold palace, which is already a great gift, and I only want Mingming to be happy and carefree in this life, how dare I ask for anything else?" ”

When Concubine Lian heard this, her face became even colder, but she knew Xu Liangdi's temperament, so she didn't speak for a while.

"The two sisters are walking so fast." A soft voice came.

Concubine Lian and Xu Liangdi looked back and saw Liu Zhaoyi with a charming smile, and came surrounded by palace maids.

"Zhaoyi Niangniang." Xu Liangdi bowed slightly.

But Concubine Lian just took it casually and didn't speak.

In terms of status, Liu Zhaoyi is naturally higher, so the two naturally salute.

Liu Zhaoyi said with a smile: "The two younger sisters are not feeling well, they should go back to the palace, this weather is cold, don't freeze your body." ”

"Thank you for your concern." Xu Liangdi's voice was neither humble nor silent.

"Hypocrisy." Concubine Lian sneered.

Liu Zhaoyi's face stiffened slightly, and then he still smiled: "His Royal Highness King Rong sent a few boxes of high-quality ginseng the day before yesterday, and I will send someone to the two sisters later, and we will talk about it." ”

"Thank you, mother." Xu Liangdi still just thanked him and didn't say much.

Concubine Lian was disdainful and said coldly: "Thank you Zhaoyi Niangniang for your kindness, I'm afraid that the concubine Fu Bo can't stand it, so Niangniang will eat it by herself and retire." With that, he strode away.

Xu Liangdi also smiled and said, "The concubine has also retired." After saying that, he also left.

Seeing this, Liu Zhaoyi couldn't help but be angry, her eyebrows were upside down, and a trace of cruelty flashed in her eyes.

With a hideous face, she couldn't help but think hatefully: "You all look down on this palace, one day this palace will make you worse than dead, and regret what you did today." Thinking about it, his expression suddenly became proud, and he strode away.
