Chapter 42 The Winter Solstice Festival
"If you don't want to go, it's all your own family!" The Queen Mother sat up, straightened up and smiled,
"Look at our little fall, ouch, we're sinned." After that, he picked up the face of Xiaoluo, who had already walked up to him, and looked at that and said,
"It's not as good as Hui'er Mingyan?"
"Auntie, you're making fun of me again!"
"Take care of it, and when Ming'er Spring is well, she will come to the palace to accompany my old woman." Empress Dowager Yan didn't answer Yan Hui's words, and looked at Xiaoluo really and said.
Before coming here, the stepmother had already asked herself if she wanted to go to the palace to live. Xiaoluo doesn't matter, if she is stable for such a life, Qingyun Courtyard is the best place, but she is destined not to have a stable life.
Of course, the ultimate reason is because I have read the master's letter, and the master's letter is very clear: the palace will be further away from his life experience.
What else is Xiaoluo unwilling to do?
Of course, there was a pair of eyes not far away that kept staring at Xiaoluo, and he didn't dare to come forward to talk to her, just look at her from afar. He was worried that he would make her unhappy if he accidentally spoke all of a sudden, and his grandmother was here, so he had better restrain himself. Therefore, after a while, I looked at Xiaoluo and turned away, which is really sad!
This meal can be described as Binyi's main joy, except for poor Zhaoqi. But the Queen Mother is the most understanding and good grandmother.
"Luo'er, I see that your left hand hasn't moved much, and it's not all right yet, so it's better to go to the side room to rest for a while!" The Queen Mother really didn't want to see Zhaoqi's sad appearance.
Who can not understand the Queen Mother's kindness? Zhao Qi wanted to thank him thousands of times, and thin stripes had already floated in the corners of his eyes. But looking at Xiaoluo's cold appearance again, Zhaoqi's heart became entangled again. In the end, he didn't dare to enter the wing room with Xiaoluo so clearly, not to mention that he didn't know Xiaoluo's thoughts at all now.
It's just a coincidence that someone from afar sent something to Shoukang Palace, and the palace maid didn't know which main palace lady sent it, Zhaoqi stood at the door and looked.
The one who came in was actually Wyeth from the Jade Fu Palace of Concubine Die, the female official Wyeth who had married the third prince as a concubine.
This is a clear provocation, and Concubine Die is so ignorant of the depths? You must know that Wyeth, who is already a concubine, is not qualified to come to Shoukang Palace again.
Zhaoqi walked into the main hall with a dark color and a little ugly, the Queen Mother and Yan Hui were chatting warmly, and they were really surprised to see Zhaoqi's face, Yongniang hurriedly brought a cup of tea.
"Imperial grandmother, don't be angry about what you see and hear." Zhao Qi gasped a little, unevenly.
"Look what's wrong with this kid, he looks like this." The Queen Mother quipped, it's not that Xiaoluo, this girl, has a grudge. When I saw her eating just now, her face was calm, what can deceive people, this look will definitely not.
But Yongniang stayed and looked out attentively.
This doesn't matter if you don't look at it, it's really shocking to see it, this shameless thing dares to come to Shoukang Palace.
According to the temperament of the Queen Mother, it is strange that the scourge sent to the door is peeled off, Yongniang sighed twice with "ouch, ouch", and beckoned to the inside with a disgusted face,
"You guys come over and block the door."
After speaking, he hurriedly walked to the queen mother, and said a little embarrassed,
"Yufu Palace sent someone over, and the old slave looked a little familiar, it was the lowly embryo who was thinking about marrying a concubine."
The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, covered her mouth with a silk scarf, and said indifferently: "Don't make a fuss, just send people back after they are taken." ”
"The Queen Mother is wise!" Yongniang took the order and hurriedly dealt with it.
The Queen Mother was about to deal with business, and Yan Hui hurriedly left with Xiaoluo.
When Concubine Die, who was far away in the Yufu Palace, saw that the cloth strips were wrapped all over her body, leaving only a pair of eyes to look at people and the nose that could breathe, and the rest of the place was almost tightly tied, Concubine Die was so ashamed that she almost didn't take a knife to stab the waste in front of her, but fortunately, the third prince came to save him in time.
This information was known on the second day when the emperor took Concubine Die to ask the Queen Mother to take the blame, of course, Concubine Die failed to enter the Shoukang Palace, she took off her clothes and hairpins to ask for the guilt, the Queen Mother thought she was in the way and let her stand at the side door of the Shoukang Palace, and the palace maids and eunuchs who came and went made a lot of comments.
The emperor still pleaded guilty in the Shou Palace, and the Queen Mother couldn't let his face really get over and set the rules, and Concubine Die couldn't step into the Shoukang Palace from now on.
"Emperor, it's good for a woman to be obedient, why do you need so many tricks?" The Queen Mother's persuasion was quite bitter.
The emperor was depressed in his heart, he really didn't know that this woman had such great ability, and she could directly send the person concerned to the queen mother's palace, and in front of Yan Hui, she was really dizzy. If it weren't for Zhaoyu's pleading, he really couldn't imagine how this woman could be so frustrated.
"In the end, it's not our Central Plains woman, and years of harem life haven't allowed her to learn to be like a Central Plains woman." The emperor persuaded.
"The harem also needs someone in charge after all." Listening to this short word for Concubine Die, the Queen Mother was not annoyed, and said it in a word.
"Thanks to the Queen Mother...... the Emperor immediately stood up straight and saluted.
"Don't look at me, I'm old, it's okay to watch some children, I can't take care of your warblers and swallows, and I don't want to take care of them." Before the emperor could salute, the Queen Mother had already refused one step ahead of him.
Go back and pull yourself, can you still live for a long time! The Queen Mother is angry when she thinks about it!
"It's all the son's unfilial piety." The emperor made amends and saluted, and his tone was even cordial.
"You don't have to be unfilial, if you really have the heart, someone can come to me like Zhaoqi to be filial, and I am also content."
What a shrewd person the emperor is, it is not difficult to hear that the queen mother means that she plans to have one or two juniors to be happy in front of her. As long as he doesn't have an idea about the queen of the middle palace, he doesn't have this idea.
"Oh, what granddaughter is so blessed to be taught by her mother?"
"It's good if you agree to this, but if you want to, I still have to ask her to find out." The Queen Mother was quite happy and sat ironing.
"Queen Mother, you can torture your sons, how dare I say that I am not allowed?" The emperor snorted. In fact, this suspicious emperor was already thinking quickly about every son and daughter in the palace at this moment, which one did the queen mother fancie?
You must know that the emperor is not the queen mother's parent, this is something that everyone in the palace knows, and the emperor was not successfully established as a reserve at the beginning, isn't it because of this reason? Therefore, after the emperor held the country, the queen mother began to support in this Shoukang Palace, which was already like a decoration, and because of what Yanfu did before, the emperor did not turn his face with the queen mother, which is probably his greatest tolerance.
"Just let it go! Just let it go! "The Queen Mother is always smiling.
However, now that the Taishi has begun to return to the court, Hui has also relieved the pain of captivity. I don't think the idea between the two of them is so serious.
"I don't know if the queen mother has a suitable candidate for the queen of the middle palace?" The emperor asked tentatively.
"You choose your own affairs, as long as you have a good character, a woman from a family, the rest depends on the emperor's preferences." For the emperor's favorite concubine, the queen mother is inconvenient to say. But this queen can still say a few words appropriately.
With this sentence, it was decided that Concubine Die was not even qualified to be selected as the queen.
"The queen mother thought ......." The emperor wanted to find out the deeper meaning of the queen mother, but the queen mother had no intention of saying more, but interrupted,
"I've already said what I think, you can do the rest, don't bother me anymore old woman."
It was only in the face of the emperor that the Queen Mother complained a little.
The emperor was ashamed again and again, and repeatedly asked for guilt and retreated.
For a time, the news spread that the queen mother and the emperor were discussing the pre-establishment of the queen, and the people in the harem were excited, and several competitive characters had begun to compete in secret, and they used eighteen kinds of martial arts to win the favor of the emperor. But also because the word "woman of the family" set a cross of shame for Concubine Die, she was indignant.
It's Ning Guifei, who is one step away from the queen, Ning Guifei is not slow, she still plays her phoenix blood guqin every day, admires flowers, teases birds, and lives quite comfortably.
Don't dare to do anything about the harem, until the Chinese New Year, the position of the queen of the palace has not been decided, the harem Fengyin is still in Shoukang Palace, and everyone above the concubine position routinely goes to Shoukang Palace on the first and fifteenth days of each month to ask for peace, except for the butterfly concubine Niangniang can not enter.
The New Year is coming in a blink of an eye, this winter is exceptionally cold, the snow has fallen several times, even this Chinese New Year's Eve, from the initial misty snow to this goose feather snow has fallen.
Xiaoluo shook the snowflakes on his shoulders, and his hair was also dotted with a little snowflake, and they were all wet.
"Miss is really, the eldest lady has specially set up a big pavilion to practice swords for you, you have to be in the yard, it's all wet now, it's good to be blocked by the wind!" Qiu'er complained while wiping the dry clothes.
"It's still at ease in the courtyard, just like in Qingyun Academy." It's not that Xiao Luo doesn't know that practicing swords in snow is susceptible to wind and cold, but he can't take care of anything when he holds this Ice Sword.
"It seems that this sword will have to be placed in the pavilion next time, and the young lady will be willing to practice it in the pavilion." Linggui also smiled and laughed, by going and coming back, there was no difference between her and Qiu'er, they were like a family. But it can be seen from her reply that she is particularly alert.
"In the pavilion? What about security? "Qiu'er's execution is still quite fast, and she has already begun to think about the next things.
"The rest is not tight, the main thing is not to exert too much effort in the palms." When several people spoke, they didn't notice that Yan Hui had come over by herself.
