Chapter 872: Tempting the Emperor
Just like at the beginning, Su Yiyi's father married Su Yiyi to Chang Rui for his own status, as long as it is good for himself, the happiness of women will not be in their consideration or the like.
Especially for a princess like Yin Qingxuan, her marriage is easy to be used as a tool to maintain Yin Jinghan's interests, but Concubine Shu did not do this, not only did she not force Yin Xuan's family, but even chose to let go of the three princesses who were against her for the sake of Yin Qingxuan.
It can be said that the mother of Concubine Shu is already very rare.
Laifu's words were very comforting, and Concubine Shu said, "The palace already has such a status, and no one can shake Han'er's position in the court, Xuan'er's marriage, of course, is up to her." ”
"The mother is wise, if the princess knows, she will definitely be very moved."
Laifu smiled again and said something flattering, and then said worriedly, "But Niangniang, are you really sure that Concubine Xian can stop the third prince?" The relationship between these three princes and the three princesses is very deep. ”
"Hmph, what about deep feelings? Bengong still doesn't believe it, for the sake of a woman, even his mother's words have to be disobeyed. Concubine Shu sneered, and as she spoke, she said to herself, "If he really does this, then he is only to blame for his own death." ”
Although it is said that for Yin Qingxuan's sake, she can let them go once, but it does not mean that she will be so kind every time.
If they really don't know how to lift, then don't blame her for turning her face and being ruthless.
"Mother, how is it, has Concubine Shu embarrassed you?" Seeing that Concubine Xian came back safe and sound, the heart that the third princess was carrying was finally put back in her stomach, she hurriedly went up, helped the concubine to sit down, and said with concern.
Seeing that she was so concerned, Concubine Xian smiled, "I said it, she won't be a mother, but you have to be careful these days...... It seems that Concubine Shu suspects you of provoking Yi'er behind you. ”
However, it is not surprising that Concubine Shu would have such thoughts, after all, Concubine Xian is famous for not caring about idle matters, especially sensitive matters related to the dispute between concubines and princes, she will stay out of it.
So Concubine Shu really didn't know that this matter was Concubine Xian's idea.
"Mother, you don't have to worry about me, I am often outside the palace, they just want to embarrass me and can't embarrass me." The third princess said.
"Well, then these days, you don't want to enter the palace." Concubine Xian nodded, arranged it, thought about it, and added another sentence, "By the way, you go back and tell Yi'er to let him restrain himself a little bit, and don't do it too obviously." ”
She is not a person who does not know how to be flexible, since Concubine Shu did not choose to shoot directly this time, but reminded herself first, then even if it is face, she has to make an appearance, so that Concubine Shu and the others will relax their vigilance and buy more time for Yin Jingyi.
"Yes, Erchen wrote it down."
Then the third princess said goodbye to Concubine Shu and went out of the palace.
After that, Yin Jingyi in the court really didn't go against Yin Jinghan again, and after Concubine Shu asked once, she thought that her words had played a role, but she didn't pay much attention to this matter.
Her current focus is on the emperor's side.
One afternoon, Concubine Shu prepared a few snacks that the emperor loved to eat, and took Laifu to Chaoyang Palace.
After walking in, after Concubine Shu saluted the emperor, she took out a snack and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that you have a bad appetite in the end, these are some pastries prepared by the concubine in the imperial dining room, you can taste them." ”
"The concubine has a heart." The emperor said gratefully, patted the place next to him, and motioned for Concubine Shu to sit down.
Concubine Shu was not pretentious, and sat next to the emperor with a smile.
Sweeping her gaze over the thick stack of folds in front of the emperor, Concubine Shu said, "Your Majesty, although government affairs are important, Your Majesty must also cherish your dragon body." ”
"What Concubine Ai said is very true, I will pay attention." The Emperor nodded, picked up a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, and the next moment, a little surprise appeared on his face.
Concubine Shu had been paying attention to the emperor's demeanor, and when she saw his expression, she immediately smiled and said, "What does Your Majesty think of the taste...... I specially had people pick fresh plum blossoms to make it. ”
"Yes, it's delicious." The emperor was full of praise and ate a few more pieces as he spoke.
Seeing the emperor's happy eating, Concubine Shu's face immediately showed a happy expression, and said, "If Your Majesty likes it, I will ask the imperial dining room to make more and send it over in a while." ”
The emperor naturally had no objection, and Concubine Shu accompanied the emperor to say a few inconsequential things, and when the emperor had almost eaten, Concubine Shu got up.
"Since this is the case, then the concubine will not disturb His Majesty's business, and the concubine will retire."
Speaking of which, this is the cleverness of Concubine Shu.
If it was the former queen and this kind of thing happened to her mother's family, I was afraid that she would run to the emperor in the morning and cry and make trouble.
But Concubine Shu is completely the opposite, from the time the emperor asked Wang Tanzhi to track down the Yan family until now, Concubine Shu has never asked, and she looks for someone to eat tea and talk every day, as if she doesn't know that there is such a thing.
And I finally came over once, and I really cared about the emperor's body, and I didn't ask anything more about the pastries before leaving.
The emperor also knew that Yin Jinghan had begun to suspect himself, since Yin Jinghan was suspicious, it was impossible for Concubine Shu not to know, but since she knew, she could still be so casual, which showed that this woman's scheming was unfathomable.
Now is not the time to turn his face, so since Concubine Shu does not speak, the emperor can only speak on his own first to stabilize them temporarily.
So he called out to stop Concubine Shu.
"Concubine Ai, don't you want to ask about the Yan family?"
"Your Majesty, the concubine is just a woman and doesn't understand the affairs of the court, but I believe that as long as our Yan family doesn't do it, you won't wronged them." Concubine Shu said with a look of trust.
Although her face was full of trust and dependence on the emperor, the emperor did not believe that this was her true thoughts.
The emperor said with an excited and guilty face, "Aifei, you are really understanding, I am really ashamed of you." ”
If it was in the past, maybe Concubine Shu really believed the emperor's words, but because of the emperor's abnormality during this time, Concubine Shu was still a little suspicious.
It seems that she should still test the other party again, thinking of this, she said very reasonably, "Your Majesty, don't say that, the concubine believes in you and my brother, he will not do such a thing." ”
"Ai Concubine, I also believe that the Yan family will not do such a thing." The emperor hurriedly said, "It's just that you also know that the matter has been brought out, and if I don't show an attitude, it will inevitably make people in the world say that I don't distinguish between good and evil." ”
"Your Majesty, you don't need to explain, the concubine understands your hardships, and for you, even if the Yan family suffers some grievances, what is it."
"Ai Fei, how can I have such a righteous woman." The emperor said with a touched face.
