Chapter 205: Chess Pieces (2)
As soon as he heard this, Suo Qingwu immediately knew that his father and the queen had something very important to say. So I hurriedly let everyone else out.
Bixi stood by the door in a daze and poked her head in.
Suo Qingwu frowned, "Bixi, your head." β
"Oh, I see, little lord."
Queen Wu Yashi was amused again, "This palace maid is indeed very interesting." β
Suo Qingwu lowered his eyebrows, "Yes." β
"Maybe she thinks it's boring to stand outside. Su Xin, you go out to accompany Bixi. β
"Yes, Queen."
So Su Xin also went out.
Seeing that there were only three of them left in the room, Suo Zhongtang said, "Queen Mother, you can say it." β
Wu Yashi smiled at him, "Suo Zhongtang, please go out too." β
"Me?" He was a little surprised, but still acted indifferent. "Xia Guan just remembered that there was still one official matter that had not been handled, so he took his leave first."
Wu Yashi: "Well, go ahead. β
It's okay now, only Suo Qingwu and the queen are left in the room.
She has just turned fifteen years old, and she does feel a little oozing when she faces a middle-aged woman who can't cover the vicissitudes of life alone with a thick rouge powder.
Wu Yashi's long nail covers made of gold actually looked eerie, and her makeup today was extremely failing, with a face like a white wall, bright red lips, and wrinkled skin...... In short, every place reminds Suo Qingwu of the zombies in ghost stories.
At this moment, she finally understood why Bixi didn't like to go to Kunning Palace.
The queen lady is quite scary to watch.
"Queen Mother, what do you need to discuss with me?" She asked cautiously.
Wu Yashi laughed, took her hand and said, "Good boy, you tell this palace." Do you want to be a concubine? β
As a concubine? Why ask this kind of question? Am I doing something wrong lately? Or is that idiot talking about something outside again?
"Queen Mother, Qingwu's wish in this life is just to spend her life peacefully in the palace and serve the Queen Mother well......"
Suo Qingwu Balabala said a lot of things against his will.
How could she not have come for favor?
It's just that she is not satisfied with being a concubine, if she has the opportunity to win the throne like Wan Guifei, I am afraid that she has a hundred more eyes than Wan Guifei.
In fact, Wu Yashi is not stupid, she knows that there is no practical meaning in asking this kind of question.
Who would stupidly admit that he just wants to be a concubine, that is, he wants to pamper the six palaces, isn't this obviously looking for death.
Well, not necessarily.
If it were a person like Bixi, maybe he would really say that he just wanted to be a concubine, and he wanted to be a more favored concubine than Wan Guifei.
The purpose of saying this is to initially test Suo Qingwu, and secondly, to elicit her following words.
Together, there are more than 600 people in their hearts, and no one is an idle person.
"Queen, did you hear something somewhere?" Suo Qingwu pretended to be innocent, as if she was just a harmless little white rabbit, and all rumors about her were malicious slander by others.
In the eyes of Queen Wu Ya, this set is simply no acting skills at all.
Who is she, she has lived in this deep palace for so many years, what kind of woman has she never seen? Like Suo Qingwu, at best, he can barely pass.
But this time, when she was useful to Suo Qingwu, she also pretended to reassure: "Qingwu, you are such a good woman, where would someone say something bad." The reason why this palace asked you like this is to see if you have a heart, and if you have a heart, this palace has decided to put you on the throne of a concubine. β
"Huh?"
This happiness came too quickly, she had only been a show girl for ten days, and the queen opened Chrysostom to praise her as a concubine.
The speed of this upgrade is comparable to that of a rocket.
She hasn't done anything yet, and she can immediately be on an equal footing with Concubine Xiao, who has been mixed for twenty years.
No, no, no, calm down, calm down, maybe I misheard.
"Queen Mother, Qingwu doesn't understand ......" Suo Qingwu shook his head.
It looked like a sack of money falling from the sky, and she was still pretending to be weak and sick, hey, it was too heavy for the slave family to lift it.
Queen Wu Yashi stroked her head and said seriously: "Child, you are too naΓ―ve. In this harem, who doesn't want to get the emperor's favor, from showing girls to agreeing, from agreeing to choosing a waiter...... finally from concubine to concubine, and then to concubine. β
"But the queen mother, who is young and talentless, how can she become a concubine? Besides, there are still many levels that need to be promoted from the show girl to the concubine, if the queen mother directly puts me on the concubine position, I'm afraid the other sisters will not be convinced. β
"What does it matter if they are convinced or not? If you care too much about what other people think, you will never get ahead in your life. And if you don't come out on top now, I'm afraid it's hard to get a chance to ......."
Queen Wu Yashi looked at her new nail cover, and always felt that something awkward, it seemed that the group of people in Si Zhenfang did not customize according to the drawings they gave.
I couldn't help but be a little annoyed, and my tone of voice became much heavier.
"You probably don't know yet, the emperor has a new goal recently. A new sister will soon come to this harem, and she will be at least a concubine from the beginning. β
Suo Qingwu was only joking when she was the queen, "Maybe it's the daughter of a minister with outstanding military achievements." I have heard before that if there is good news from the front, the emperor will break the rules as soon as he is happy, and the daughters or sisters of the heroes will enter the palace as mothers. Now that the border is in a fierce battle, it is not uncommon for the emperor to admit one or two women into the palace in order to boost morale. β
Empress Wu Yashi snorted coldly, "You have a wide heart." It seems that Hongu has lost his eyes, and Hongu still thinks that you will jump up and declare war publicly. I didn't expect you to accept the offer, so I announced my surrender first. Forget it, forget it, this palace should go to Concubine Xiao to discuss. After all, this daughter of Ning Yinde is not so easy to deal with. β
"Is it Ning Yinde's daughter? Isn't she the daughter of a sinner? Suo Qingwu finally became anxious, "Queen Mother, what the hell is going on?" β
"Hey, what else could it be. The emperor has taken a fancy to the daughter of the criminal minister. Now that the person is locked up in the Tianhe Palace, the palace estimates that it will not be able to wait for a few days, as long as the girl is soft, the emperor will immediately promote her. It's no wonder that a woman of her kind wants to get the emperor's favor too simply. It's just that, Qingwu, you have to think about it, if she is favored, will the emperor still have time to spoil you? β
