The eyes of the lady concubine were swollen when she cried, and she was helped by the two palace maids to sit in the tea hall on the side.

As soon as I entered, I saw the emperor holding a teapot and pouring a cup of tea for the queen.

When Concubine Shu sat down at the emperor's head, she was full of hope that the emperor could pour a cup of hot tea for her to moisten her throat.

Unexpectedly, the emperor handed the teapot to her and asked her to pour it herself.

Hot water was poured into the teacup, and the warm mist rose, making the red and swollen eyes of the concubine more and more moisturized.

Lu Hebei looked at Concubine Shu, who looked a little strange, and then looked at the queen who was sitting and drinking tea wholeheartedly.

I couldn't help but sigh slightly in my heart.

I don't know why, other people's wives and concubines are either happy (fake), or chickens and dogs jump.

Only his home, indescribable weirdness.

Gongsun Wanying is a model among everyone's ladies, with outstanding appearance and good temperament. Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are all incomprehensible, sericulture is also involved, and the current politics and art of war are all read.

The Gongsun family has experienced several generations in the previous dynasty, and it is a real century-old family, and the outstanding children cultivated are unknown. But Gongsun Wanying is lively and hearty, and there is no extra care.

Such a wife can be described as a good wife.

Wu Yueniang is more like his usual country girl, with an innocent and simple temperament. But because of the sudden change in identity, Xu suddenly changed from a poor peasant girl to a young lady of the official eunuch who made slaves and maids wear gold and silver, and few people could stabilize their mentality.

Wu Yueniang is one of them.

She has become arrogant but cowardly and inferior, not much literate, and does not know how to control people.

Thinking about all this, Lu Hebei understood why his wives and concubines in his family got along so strangely.

They weren't originally from the same world, but fate tied them together and married to the same man. They have to accommodate each other, but hate each other.

Wu Yueniang in Gongsun Wanying's eyes is pitiful and pathetic, but she will not abuse her kindness and compassion. Since they married into the Qin Palace, the competition began, and the kindness of the opponent was not responsible for themselves.

In Wu Yueniang's eyes, Gongsun Wanying is tall and arrogant, and has the superiority of a woman. Wu Yueniang wanted to be better than Gongsun Wanying, but she was inferior everywhere.

In the long run, Wu Yueniang will either become weak and incompetent, or she will become narrow-minded and selfish.

All this, Lu Hebei felt that he was in trouble.

If he is still in Lujiazhuang in Dongyang County, he is still the second son of the Lu family who does not ask about the world. Then he must be like his father and mother, a couple for the rest of his life.

But now, he can only force himself to accept a wife and concubine on the same day, and in the future, perhaps in order to weigh something, he will marry more women.

This is probably the helplessness of the three of them, or maybe more people!

Lu Hebei sat in the pantry for a while, and it was not good to continue to sit and not leave.

Gongsun Wanying saw his fingers moving lightly, and hurriedly got up and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine will go to the Queen Mother's side to have a look." ”

Lu Hebei nodded: "Okay, I'll let someone send you over." ”

It was Wu Yueniang who got up at the same time with Gongsun Wanying, she looked at Gongsun Wanying, and then looked at the emperor, I really wanted someone from the two to say something, let her accompany the queen to the queen mother's palace.

She heard that the Queen Mother only fasted for a month, and then did not abide by the palace filial piety system.

It's a pity that she has become accustomed to fine clothes and food, and now she has hallucinated when she is a vegetarian.

Thinking that there were still more than ten months of vegetarian days waiting for her in the future, Wu Yueniang felt that there was not much point in living like this.

Seeing that the emperor and queen said that they would leave, they really didn't care about her, Wu Yueniang was anxious, hurried a few steps to catch up, and called softly: "The queen mother stays." ”

Gongsun Wanying smiled at Wu Yueniang and said, "Concubine Niangniang, what's the matter?" ”

"The concubine wants to ......" wants to go to the Queen Mother's palace with the queen mother to eat meat.

When the words came to her mouth, she saw the emperor's handsome face looking over with a little doubt, she couldn't say this anyway.

Wu Yueniang could only say: "The concubine also wants to go to see the Queen Mother."

"This ......"

Gongsun Wanying looked at the emperor on the side hesitantly, "Your Majesty, is it feasible for the concubine and the concubine to go to Weiyang Palace together?" ”

Lu Hebei frowned slightly: "There are only the queen and the concubine in the lonely harem, if you both leave, who will take care of the ladies in this palace?" The palace maids and eunuchs have something to find someone to get an idea, do you want them to go to the Queen Mother's palace to find you to get an idea? ”

As soon as Wu Yueniang heard it, she knew that she didn't want to go to the Queen Mother's palace to eat, the queen mother was pregnant, and on the surface, she was responsible for many trivial matters during the harem funeral.

Now she wants to leave, but the emperor says no, she definitely can't go.

Just go to the Queen Mother's Palace to rest and sit down, and have a meal by the way, why can't it? There are so many experienced grandmothers and eunuchs in this palace, and she can't do anything here.

It's not because she is not as good as the queen and she is not favored by the emperor.

Wu Yueniang was dissatisfied, and she couldn't hide it on her face.

Gongsun Wanying hurriedly said: "When the funeral is busy, these days will be hard for the concubine." ”

Wu Yueniang said aggrievedly: "It's not hard, this is what a concubine should do." ”

But he muttered in his heart, how can he not be wronged, there are a total of three masters in the palace except for the Changle Palace. The queen goes to the Queen Mother for dinner two out of three times a day, and occasionally the emperor will go over to talk to the Queen Mother and stay for dinner.

It's just her, she eats vegetarian every day, she eats vegetarian every day, her skin is not white and delicate enough, and now her face is a little yellow and green.

Gongsun Wanying gently grabbed Wu Yueniang's hand, and said sincerely: "In this big harem, there are only you and me, and this palace is inconvenient." Now is the period of national mourning, many matters in the palace are busy, but the palace is powerless, so I can only entrust everything here to you, and I hope that Concubine Shu will not blame the palace"

"No, no, I ...... The concubine will do her best. Saying that, Wu Yueniang also urged Gongsun Wanying, "Queen Mother, go quickly, don't let the Queen Mother wait for a long time." ”

Gongsun Wanying: "Then it's hard Shufei, turn around, I'll let the small table send some snacks to the pantry, it's all your favorite food, when you're tired, go to the pantry to rest, don't keep kneeling." ”

As soon as she said this, the resentment in Wu Yueniang's heart instantly lightened a little.

"Thank you for your kindness."

Although she can't go to the Queen Mother's palace and eat something good, but the queen mother has a body, and she has to make decisions about these trivial things in the palace.

Look, Niangniang didn't want to make the imperial dining room make her favorite snacks.

When the emperor went to the main hall and the queen went to Weiyang Palace, Wu Yueniang accompanied the ladies to kneel with a sore back, even the new snacks sent by the tea hall could no longer make her feel delicious.

Wu Yueniang couldn't help but look around blankly.

Who am I?

What am I going to do?

Where's my meat?

When will I be able to eat meat?
