314 Just ignore her (and update.)
This sentence makes Hongyan smile naturally, don't people laugh because they are happy, and they will be happy in their hearts because they laugh? She understood what the Queen Mother meant, and it was indeed not a time to be happy at the moment, but the Queen Mother obviously deliberately made trouble for her today.
She never knew what was waiting for her in Ningshou Palace, but she knew what she was going to do, her sadness and joy were not for others to see, even if she was happy and sad for Hongli, it was all from her heart, and she never thought of catering to him, let alone the Queen Mother, let alone others?
"In the past, the concubines didn't like to hear the emperor say that the concubines were wronged, but now the emperor should bother the concubines and always cause you trouble, right?" The April sunshine failed to melt the emperor's frozen heart, but Hongyan's smile finally made him feel warm, and seeing that the emperor's gaze was becoming more and more gentle and peaceful, Hongyan smiled again, "The concubine will change, it must change." ”
Hongli said: "What to change, I never feel that you have done something wrong." As he spoke, he looked behind Hongyan and saw Qianya standing there, in the past, it should be the queen talking to him, Qianya is still there, but An Yi will never come back.
"Try not to take Qianya out, I know you have no other intentions, but it seems that others want to accuse you of being disrespectful to Queen Daxing, and you don't have to cause trouble." Hongli said with a flat expression, "I have stopped all the power of Ningshou Palace to interfere in the affairs of the Six Palaces, and there will be a canonization decree in a few days, I and the Queen Mother have already selected the candidate for the new queen, and the next things will be arranged one after another." ”
Hongyan was not interested in who the new queen was, and when she heard that the emperor had deprived the queen mother of the right to intervene in the six palaces, she couldn't help but worry: "Are the emperor and the queen mother deadlocked?" ”
Hongli smiled bitterly: "She must have thought it was for you, but the contradiction between me and the emperor's mother, not just you?" Don't be self-righteous and take the responsibility on your shoulders, don't worry about me, I have been her son for more than 30 years, I know her better than any of you, and I will take care of the rest of the matter, and I will not let the world see jokes, let alone cause you trouble. ”
Hongyan's heart is warm, isn't Hongli's words still for her? The emperor treats each other so sincerely, she will inevitably repay it with her life.
When the emperor saw Hongyan's comfortable expression immersed in a little happiness, he felt down-to-earth in his heart, and asked with a smile: "Why don't you ask me who I chose as the new queen?" ”
Hongyan said with a smile: "Forgive the concubines for their blunt words, looking at the six palaces, it is none other than the concubine Niangniang, and the other concubines also know it, not to mention the emperor and the queen mother." Although the Queen Mother doesn't like concubines, she cares about the harem more than anyone else. ”
"yes." Hongli said, "Anyone can think of the right person, but the Queen Mother feels that she is the only one in the world who is sober." ”
Hongyan couldn't help but put his hand on the emperor's chest, frowned, and said: "The emperor don't put this kind of words on his lips, the concubines have all seen it, how can the emperor not see it." ”
Hongli looked down at her white and tender hands, and said with a smile: "You are enough for the emperor to talk about it for several days." ”
Hongyan hurriedly wanted to withdraw his hand, but the emperor grabbed it, and he said, "I listen to you, look away." Another sigh, "I wanted to go to Yanxi Palace for a cup of tea, but this time was wasted again." ”
"Then ......" Hongyan thought for a while and said boldly, "The concubine is now going up to the Heart Palace with the emperor to make tea for you?" ”
Hongli smiled: "I always thought that you were unwilling to go to the Heart Cultivation Palace. After that, he took her hand and walked to the Heart Cultivation Palace.
On this day, and the people of the prince's mansion hurriedly entered the palace to take out Concubine Yu, Concubine Yu was a junior in front of Concubine Wen Hui, and she had to come to salute, and people in their fifties cried so much that they were full of grievances, and the concubine persuaded her: "You are not too young, and you will let your grandson live for the joy of the future, and don't make trouble for Hongday's husband and wife." You should think about it, if the emperor is really a ruthless person, can the mistakes made by Hongyang be forgiven again and again? But you should also understand that the emperor has a bottom line, don't dig your own grave. ”
The concubine's words were very polite, in her opinion, she didn't know when she would see each other, even if she didn't see her from now on, she didn't care, this Shoukang Palace could finally become quiet and peaceful, if Concubine Yu hated her because of this, she would never come again, but the concubine would be happy.
But Concubine Wen Hui gave Concubine Yu a lot of rewards and let her retire in her old age, Concubine Yu naturally did not dare to complain when she took the benefits, but said to Concubine Wen Hui when she left: "You love Concubine Ling, but the Queen Mother really regards Concubine Ling as a thorn in the flesh." The concubine and the queen mother have been sisters for decades, knowing her temperament, she doesn't like Concubine Ling not because Concubine Ling is bad, but because the first emperor has never treated her like the current emperor treats Concubine Ling, she is purely jealous, that is a grievance that has been suppressed for decades. ”
These words, Concubine Wen Hui did not convey to Hongyan, she can't be a villain who instigates the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, although these two people have long had no mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship, but the Queen Mother is the Queen Mother after all, if she really wants to do anything to hurt Hongyan, the emperor will only lose Hongyan, but she can't do anything to her mother, and now she has stopped her power to intervene in the Six Palaces, she is already ruthless, and I don't know how to turn around their mother-son relationship after Hongli.
But the next day, there was a decree spread throughout the six palaces, saying that the queen mother was sad for Queen Daxing, and she wanted to recuperate in Ningshou Palace, and the six palaces were not allowed to go to disturb without a summons.
The word "generation" is of great significance, once the news spreads, all kinds of speculations have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, among the three of them, Hongyan is ranked last, and the power of the assistant of the matter, Xian Guifei, who has not been inconspicuous, was suddenly pushed to the forefront, although as the emperor and Hongyan said, there is really no more suitable candidate than her, but if she is really selected as the future queen, there will still be many people who are dissatisfied and opposed, and the biggest and only deficiency of Xian Guifei is that she has no children under her knees.
The queen mother said that she wanted to train a new queen for the emperor, and the next day after the emperor issued an order, she called Xian Guifei to Ningshou Palace. In the past, she had brought Xian Guifei to assist in the affairs of the Six Palaces, and she could see that Xian Guifei was capable and intelligent, and later she was afraid that she would shake the middle palace before suppressing it, and unlike other concubines who had to struggle when they were suppressed, she looked at the ups and downs plainly, and this self-cultivation and open-mindedness were now in the eyes of the Queen Mother, and it was also the bearing of the middle palace.
But even Mama Hua thought it was incredible, she thought that the Queen Mother would be hit hard after yesterday's events, but she immediately regrouped and came to "cultivate" a new queen for the emperor with great interest, Mama Hua thought in her heart a long time ago, the Queen Mother's good to Queen Daxing in the past was based on her hope to support the middle palace and use the middle palace to stabilize the meaning of the six palaces, and sure enough, now her idea has been verified, it seems that it doesn't matter who is the queen, as long as it is the "queen".
She secretly thought, if Concubine Ling really became the queen, would the Queen Mother also give up the struggle and support the new queen wholeheartedly from then on, in order to seek a "good reputation" in her life?
However, the current situation is not optimistic, Queen Fucha has been in and out of the imperial city since she was a child, the Queen Mother watched her grow up, she also watched the Queen Mother grow old, and they know each other, Queen Fucha is dissatisfied in her heart, and she also knows how to be thoughtful in front of the Queen Mother, but this one in front of the door is really difficult to deal with.
The Queen Mother has been talking for a long time, Concubine Xian has not moved a trace of expression on her face, she seems to be listening carefully, but as if she has not heard anything at all, the Queen Mother's enthusiasm gradually turned cold, and she said with some dissatisfaction: "Do you not know the changes you are about to face?" You didn't want to pay attention to the affairs of the six palaces before, you are a cold person, but as the lord of the six houses, everything is your business, and you are the one who wants to be the mother of the world. ”
Concubine Xian blessed her body and said: "The queen mother is safe, naturally you come to the world of mothers, the queen is virtuous and benevolent, and the concubines are less than a point." In the coming day, if the grace of the saint is vast, and the concubines are in the middle palace, they must follow the example of Queen Daxing, and do their best for the emperor, the six palaces, and the people of the world. ”
The Queen Mother frowned and looked at this woman who was as indifferent as clear water, the pure concubine was so fake and high, she felt annoyed when she looked at it more, but the concubine was not too cold, and the Queen Mother secretly felt that this daughter-in-law was not necessarily easier to deal with than An Yi.
Exiting Ningshou Palace, Concubine Xian pulled her neckline, as if she was breathing, she really didn't like the depression in Ningshou Palace, and she sighed even more when she thought that she would have to come and go from time to time in the future.
Hua Rong said softly: "The Queen Mother actually made everything clear, Niangniang, you want to be the queen." Our Huifa Nala clan is finally going to have a queen, and they must be very happy. ”
Xian Guifei said indifferently: "I haven't skimmed the eight characters yet, not to mention that I don't want to be a queen at all, the most troublesome thing is that in the future, I have to be tired of dealing with this one." ”
Hua Rong also said: "The queen mother's posture looks at it, as if she thinks that you will be promoted from the concubine position in the future, and you will not be as orthodox and noble as Queen Daxing, and she can press you everywhere and make you grovel to her." ”
Concubine Xian glanced back at Ningshou Palace, shook her head and said, "I don't care about her, the old lady turns her face faster than she turns a book, it doesn't matter who you are." ”
However, regardless of whether the queen mother explained her words to Xian Guifei, the emperor's holy decree made it clear that Xian Guifei would take charge of the affairs of the six palaces, and this direction was already indicated, and now she is walking in the Forbidden City, whether it is a eunuch palace maid or a low-ranking concubine, there is no need to treat her with a more respectful attitude, but all this is meaningless to Xian Guifei.
At this moment, she slowly walked back to Yikun Palace, and saw her palace maid greeting her happily, as if she wanted to call the queen mother, she suddenly had a spirit, pulled Hua Rong into the door, and asked her: "Is there really that day, my canonization ceremony, are all civil and military officials coming to the pilgrimage to him?" ”
Hua Rong's heart sank, and he nodded stiffly.
