Chapter 30: Where did the Queen Mother come from?
Ruyi fell to the ground with a pop, his face turned white, his lips trembled, the child was obviously frightened by Leng Yue's murderous aura. And Jiuling, although his face did not change, his eyes were full of consternation, his trembling hands touched his chest, and his breath was disordered.
Leng Yue regained her indifference, her slender hand gently plucked the strings, and the guqin made a pleasant sound, echoing Leng Yue's words: "The right phase, on the surface, has no quarrel with the world, looking left and right, but in fact he is the prince's person." Because I was pregnant with a dragon son in my belly and was favored by the emperor, he felt that the status of the crown prince was threatened, so he sent Concubine Lin to suppress me. As for the queen, she is the biological mother of the crown prince, so naturally she can't be touched, but Concubine Li's death can't be ignored by him, so naturally she won't give her a good face. Hehe...... The right phase is hidden deeply! ”
Nian Jiuling pondered for a moment and said: "If this is the case, then Concubine Lin's matter can be explained, this right phase is really hidden!" ”
Ruyi was still young after all, so he stupidly got up and stood quietly.
Leng Yue suddenly remembered the money bag, and snorted coldly: "I have already given away the money bag I used when I was a palace maid, only Lin Wenlang knows about it, but it's a pity that he ......."
Nian Jiuling asked, "Then did you apply for the money bag again afterwards?" ”
Leng Yue shook her head and said: "No, it's just a money bag, I didn't pay attention to it, and it was reissued in the palace during the Chinese New Year, so I didn't apply for it." ”
"Hmm...... Could it be that someone else did it to blame you? "When he returned to the palace at the age of nine years, he had already learned from Ruyi's mouth that the whole thing was going on.
Leng Yue shook her head and said, "That money bag is an old thing, and it is definitely not new. Moreover, the silk thread used in the name of the show is different every year, and it has been dyed with a special potion in the palace, because it is afraid that these palace maids will take out the things in the palace and sell them casually, so they can't be faked. ”
Nian Jiuling was silent, and he also knew this, so his luck psychology was hit.
It seems that this purse matter still needs to be investigated in depth, and also, who is the person who is following in the dark at the sunrise palace? What is the purpose? All this made Leng Yue unable to grasp it, and the uneasiness in his heart was even worse.
On the second day, Leng Yue was told that the Queen Mother would come back before the emperor's birthday, and Leng Yue suddenly stood on the spot.
"Too ...... Dowager? Where did it come from? I've never heard of it! "Leng Yue is stunned, the emperor is in his fifties, so isn't the queen mother going to be seventy or eighty? She muttered again: "It seems that any palace fight is indispensable to the role of the queen mother, what blood!" ”
Nian Jiuling saw Leng Yue muttering to herself on the side, and couldn't help laughing: "The Queen Mother is the biological mother of Master Luochen, and she is only thirty-five years old this year. ”
Leng Yue snorted and said, "It's even younger than the queen, but why doesn't she live in the palace?" Why did you come back all of a sudden this time? The people in the palace have never mentioned that there is a queen mother! ”
Nian Jiuling nodded and said: "After the death of the first emperor, the queen mother gave birth to Luochen, and she can be regarded as a mother with an heir, so she was named the queen mother." After falling out of the palace, she felt that life in the palace was boring, so she went to Shenglong Mountain to practice. ”
"Huh? Isn't she a nun with a pure heart and few desires? Leng Yue began to fantasize about the appearance of the Queen Mother.
Nian Jiuling smiled strangely and said: "No, although the Queen Mother is not very old, she was the princess of Dawan back then, both civil and military." At that time, there were no more concubines beside the emperor, and he didn't want to be close, but Dawan couldn't send tribute, so he sent the princess and relatives. The first emperor didn't want to cause trouble, so he agreed. The first emperor thought that the princess was only thirteen years old, so he wanted to give it to the emperor, who was still the crown prince at the time, but the princess refused to obey and had to marry the first emperor. The emperor couldn't resist her, so he held a big wedding and made her a concubine. Later, when the queen died, she was named the queen, but unfortunately, when she was eight months pregnant, the emperor died, and the crown prince succeeded to the throne, and she also lost her support. ”
Leng Yue sighed: "Presumably she suffered a lot in the two months before giving birth!" ”
Nian Jiuling nodded and said: "That's right, what I know is also known to others, it's not a secret, only the Queen Mother herself knows who has harmed her in those two months." ”
"The Queen Mother is really gentle enough, if it were me, I would definitely retaliate." Leng Yue said lightly.
Hearing this, Nian Jiuling laughed as if he had heard a joke, and after laughing, he said, "Wen Wan? You're the first to say that about her. I heard that the Queen Mother has a very strong temperament and belongs to the kind of person who will repay her, but if she is a person who is really good to her, she can do everything for that person. ”
"Oh? I'd love to see her for myself. "Leng Yue is really interested in this Queen Mother.
"Mother." Nian Jiuling suddenly turned serious and said: "The Queen Mother has a jade seal in her hand, so the emperor is also very jealous of her, you have to be careful." ”
"Jade seal? Isn't the jade seal only available to the emperor? Leng Yue felt that things were complicated.
"The Holy Dragon Dynasty has two jade seals in all dynasties, one in the hands of the emperor and one in the hands of the queen, and the two jade seals can be combined to replace the military talisman, understand?"
"Well, it's complicated. The emperor wants the jade seal in the hands of the queen mother! That's why I'm a little jealous of her, if the emperor has two jade seals in his hands, then he won't be afraid of the Feng family. ”
"So the Feng family is also eyeing this jade seal, but the queen mother secretly left the palace back then, and she also took the jade seal with her, and did not hand it over to the queen. Now that the Queen Mother is back, the Feng family will definitely please in every possible way, so Niangniang should be careful. ”
Leng Yue pouted and said, "I'm so well-behaved, what else can she do to me?" ”
Nian Jiuling shook his head and sighed, praying in his heart, hoping that his worries were superfluous.
In the following days, Leng Yue stayed in Huiyue Palace very obediently, and as for the emperor, he often came to sit for a while, but he did not stay overnight. Leng Yue could see that his heart was very irritable, it was all because the Queen Mother wanted to return to the palace.
Concubine Lin has not been idle these days, and has used all means to please the emperor, and even made a people's street in her own palace, and took the emperor to go shopping like ordinary people. The emperor felt fresh, and he was fascinated by Concubine Lin to give up the government for many days, and it was all taken care of by the two prime ministers. Leng Yue reaped a lot of benefits here and attracted a large number of officials. The right minister is also abnormal, he is no longer a good man, he is against the left everywhere, he is fighting for the interests of the prince.
Just when Leng Yue was trying to win people's hearts, Zuo Xiang came and brought two news, one good and one bad.
Leng Yue glanced at Zuo Xiang, who was sitting in front of him calmly drinking tea, and said, "Old fox, you didn't come to me to drink tea, did you?" ”
Hearing this, Zuo Xiang put down the teacup and said with a smile: "Niangniang, today the minister is specially here to thank Niangniang." Because of the mother's secret recipe, the old minister's wife was happy. ”
"Oh? So, the old fox's house is going to have a little fox! Congratulations. Leng Yue covered her mouth and smiled evilly.
Zuo Xiang said nonchalantly: "That's right, the old minister can finally get rid of this unfilial name." But...... Mother, there's bad news. Jiangnan failed. Jiangnan is rich, but it is not our power, watching a lot of silver flow into the Feng family, the old minister is heartbroken! ”
Leng Yue sighed and said, "That's where the Feng family is in control, and it's not so easy for us to arrange spies...... There is, let's look for him, that person will definitely help us take Jiangnan! ”
