Chapter 260: Fighting for the Queen's Favor

Zhu Jiu is known as the goddess of war in the Central Plains countries, but how praised she is, how terrible she is in the eyes of the border countries.

Because she is there, not only the Yan Kingdom in the Central Plains, but even the former Xuanyuan Kingdom, Gaoxin Kingdom, and Xia Kingdom have benefited, and foreign barbarians dare not invade at all.

In particular, Zhu Jiu also mastered the technology of gunpowder, and thanks to her strict control, this thing did not fall into the hands of others, but also because she could exert the power of gunpowder, so on the battlefield, as long as she heard the word Zhu Jiu in the opponent's army, even if Zhu Jiu did not come to the battlefield in person, it was enough to scare the enemy into losing his armor.

Loulan used to be good friends with Xuanyuan Kingdom, just because she was afraid of Yan Kingdom and Zhu Jiu that she would be unhappy one day, so she directly turned them into history.

Before coming to Heqin this time, they didn't expect Zhu Jiu to become the queen of Xuanyuan Kingdom, so after learning that Zhu Jiu was named the queen, Nana, the little girl of Loulan, has been vigilant in Changle Palace, always paying attention to the movements of Changle Palace, and not letting her Zhaoyi Niangniang get close to Zhu Jiu.

She never expected that yesterday Zu Menglan just had a few words with this group of Central Plains women, and she was disgusted by them, so she didn't want to live in a palace with these people, and went to the queen's palace with a pillow in the middle of the night!

If this is known by the queen, will her master still live?

Fortunately, these palace concubines all talked to that Liu Baolin, and no one paid attention to her Lan Zhaoyi, Nana breathed a sigh of relief and let her go, but couldn't help but remind again, "In short, what you listen to me is, His Royal Highness the Prince specially asked the slaves and maids to come with you to take care of you, just to protect you to live well in the palace, the women in this palace are not simple, have you forgotten what His Royal Highness the Prince told you before?"

"Uh......"

Zu Menglan thought about it carefully, before she kissed, the prince's brother once held her hand and said to her solemnly: "Sister, I heard that the harem of the Central Plains Dynasty is more terrible than ours, our father has only one queen, and only one queen mother, but the emperor over there can have many women, and the women in the harem can be said to be unscrupulous in order to rob a man, what kind of drugging, framing, framing and other things, the play is very smooth, you go over there, you must not make friends with anyone, Don't make enemies easily, just live well, my brother will definitely grow Loulan, and I will take you home in three years and five years!"

Their country still needs to develop, and because they are facing the threat of a great power in the Western Regions and are at risk of losing their country, they have to send her to Xuanyuan and borrow troops from Xuanyuan.

Therefore, she has a very important mission, and she must not die in the battle of harem women!

Hearing Nana say this, and thinking of the prince's brother's instructions, Zu Menglan suddenly felt that the task was heavy, and his expression gradually became serious, and he nodded solemnly: "I know, it's a big deal - it's a big deal that I won't go to sleep with the queen mother tonight, I will sleep in my own room honestly."

As he was talking, suddenly, a notice came from the front, "The queen mother is married!"

I saw a eunuch in red, it was Wei Ruhai's eldest apprentice, Wei Changfu, he was standing at the door hunched over, his lips were red and his teeth were whiter, and his face was whiter because of the fat powder, and he looked solemn and hunched over, which made people feel a little more in awe of the people walking behind him.

For a while, the palace concubines got up in unison and bowed to Yingying at the door: "See the queen mother!"

His Majesty will not come to the women's table at will today, and the queen is the person with the highest status among all the female relatives present, but no one dares to really treat Zhu Jiu as an ordinary woman.

Zu Menglan felt that the breathing of the people around her was much lighter, so she lowered her head more cautiously.

Because she is Zhaoyi, she stood at the front of the queue when she saluted, I don't know if it was her illusion, I always felt that the queen seemed to look at her more when she walked past her just now?

But Zu Menglan still listened to Nana's advice, held back her curiosity, and didn't look up at Zhu Jiu.

And the first time Zhu Jiu saw this woman, he recognized her as the palace concubine who fell asleep in her palace last night.

Did this woman's identity turn out to be Zhaoyi? I heard that it was the little princess sent by Loulan, but after entering the harem, because Zhu Jiu was exempted from the morning and dusk province, these palace concubines rarely came to Changle Palace.

Seeing that she was a little restrained, Zhu Jiu smiled, and then walked into the main seat and sat down, the brocade dress she was wearing was made of luxurious materials, and the production process was also very fine, and it would not be criticized as a dress.

So after taking a seat, she raised her hand and let the palace concubines also start to sit down, when she came, the people on the women's side had almost arrived, and many ladies in the back house were seated, so Zhu Jiu signaled, and everyone sat back in their seats, it seemed that there were quite a lot of people, but it was also lively.

Zhu Jiu simply said two sentences, and then said: "The original intention of this trip is to escape the summer, and secondly, it is rare for you to participate in such a banquet.

This has made it clear that as long as you perform on stage, no matter how bad your talent is, you can get a prize.

With the encouragement of the queen's mother, everyone in the audience was eager to try, Liu Baolin was used to seeing the excitement, although she felt that the queen mother was very majestic, but she was also amiable when she laughed, so she said coquettishly: "Niangniang, this is not fair, we also want to ask for a reward, why don't you let the sisters also perform on stage?"

No matter what Zhu Jiu rewards, if he can be rewarded by the queen, it will be very face-saving to go back to the palace and say it!

After all, His Majesty does not spoil the harem, and His Majesty has shown that he only loves the queen mother, if the queen mother has the heart to show off His Majesty's favor, it will be okay, but people just look like they are indisputable, but it makes the palace concubines not easy to vent, so they simply rely on the queen and live.

If you can't get Your Majesty's favor, can't you compete for the favor of the queen?

Today is a palace banquet for the ladies to have fun, and the families of these ministers also need a good name in order to better marry their daughters, so Zhu Jiu will not refute their face and interest.

For the behavior of the palace concubines who also wanted to be rewarded, he also laughed, "Yes, but if you don't perform well, you will be punished for copying a book and praying for the blessing of the country."

Praying for the blessing of the country is a good thing, who is not happy to put it on anyone?

It is said to be a punishment, but it is actually a reward.

Liu Baolin immediately thanked with a smile, and leaned over to discuss with the little sisters what program to perform.

And Zhu Jiu also made it clear that he wanted the ladies of the back house to start first, they were guests, so they put the guests first, which also gave these ladies enough face, and while they were comfortable, they were also a little more grateful to Zhu Jiu, and when they performed the show successively, they worked very hard.
