Volume 1 The Queen's Fan Ji 61 The Dispute of Sole Favor

At first, she didn't care, thinking that King Zhou Yi couldn't turn a corner for a while, but she didn't expect that more than a month had passed, and Ji Xie had never summoned any concubines, and moved to the middle palace to live with the queen. She really can't figure it out!

Fan Ji glanced at the listless women under the seat, let out a long sigh, and said: "Alas, after this catastrophe, the harem is also withered, and there is no one to serve the king. ”

Ji Jiang glared at her hatefully, gritted his teeth and said, "The queen's words are wrong. Now the king eats and lives in the middle palace, in this harem, as long as the queen is powerful, what is the use of waiting for me? ”

Fanji was not angry, and he didn't bother to answer her words, but he cleared his throat and said: "I have summoned everyone here today because I have important things to talk about, and I also need to consult your intentions, lest I make blind arrangements and dismiss your own wishes." The king will go to Fengyi tomorrow to worship the heavens, praying for good weather in the coming year, it will take two or three days to come and go, and there must be a lovely person to serve tea and dinner along the way. Which of you would like to go? ”

Meng Jiang flattered: "Recently, the king has been here with Niangniang, and it must be very agreeable." Why don't you go with the king and the prince by yourself, it's cheaper for both sides. ”

Fan Ji smiled helplessly and said: "After staying in this palace for a long time, who doesn't want to go out to take a breath?" It's just that Huang Huan's son is weak, and Deng Man and E Yao are not well, so this palace really can't rest assured that this big mess is going on! In fact, she is worried that "there are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkeys are the overlords", if she and King Yi are not there, and no one is in charge, Ji Jiang doesn't know what will happen?

Who here doesn't understand her thoughts? Deng Man, Huang Huan and E Yao were grateful, and immediately left their seats to thank them: "Lao Niangniang is worried, and the concubines are grateful." ”

"Get up, they are all sisters of the first palace, and it is also within the duty of the palace to take care of you." Fan Ji said with deep emotion: "You are not in good health, so you are not allowed to go." She turned her gaze to Meng Jiang: "Are you willing to accompany the king?" ”

This question didn't matter, but it scared Meng Jiang to the point that he couldn't possess his body, remembering the scene of seeing Ju Ying bloody from the main hall in the early morning of that day, he suddenly trembled, and his words stammered: "Concubine ------ concubine also has to take care of Zhong Ji, she ------ she has recently contracted a cold, and the concubine is willing to accompany Niangniang in the palace." ”

It's also a gutsless one! Fanji waved his hand impatiently: "That's it, if you are reluctant, forget it!" Then there you go! She pointed the finger at herself.

It didn't matter, and I was about to agree. Suddenly, a shrill female voice sounded, and I saw Ji Jiang standing there with a pale face: "Didn't the queen see me?" I am willing to accompany the king to Fengyi, Niangniang doesn't ask a word, the concubine is also the lord of the Qiuliao Palace, the second concubine of the Great Zhou, the mother despises me so much? ”

"It's not that this palace despises you." Early in the morning, Ji Jiang repeatedly provoked, and she ignored it, but now she jumped out like this, and it was not good not to respond. Fanji decided to make his words clear: "Over the past few days, you have been turned away from seeing the king many times. Do you know why? ”

Ji Jiang gritted his teeth and said, "The concubine doesn't know!" ”

"I am inconvenient for the harem woman to beak in the affairs of the previous dynasty, but you should not pinch the king to pull the big ding to the front of the various palace gates of the harem, so that the king lost two sons in a row, and the harem was like a catastrophe. Now, whenever the king sees you, he will remember the events of that day, how can he take you with him? ”

Ji Jiang could actually vaguely guess the reason why King Zhou Yi snubbed her, but he didn't want to admit it. Seeing that Fanji had made his words clear, Deng Man, Huang Huan and E Yao all cast resentful glances at him, and couldn't help but look almost hideous, and shouted angrily: "I don't believe it, cousin, he loves me the most!" Is there something wrong with me, will you ignore me for the rest of your life? ”

Fan Ji said in a deep voice: "Since you don't believe me, go and ask the king." If he agrees, this palace will have nothing to say. ”

"Okay, okay, you wait."

Ji Jiang turned around to leave, but Fanji stopped her: "Wait! There is also one thing to say, the new Qi Marquis Lu Bushan who was enthroned by the king has been enthroned in Yingqiu, and the above table said that he will send his sister to the palace to accompany the king soon. Everyone, there's something new coming soon! ”

All the women set their eyes on Ji Jiang, Lu Bushan's sister is also Lu Buchen's sister, as the culprit who killed Qi Aihou, how will Qi Jiang get along with Ji Jiang when he enters the palace? Surely they won't be sisters.

Ji Jiang's body shook, and the lines of his shoulders suddenly became stiff.

As soon as she left, Fanji also served tea to the guests. Only Yiji stayed with a worried face, as if he had something to say.

"Are you here to go to Fengyi? Don't worry, the king will never allow Ji Jiangzhi's invitation, you still have to make some preparations and set off tomorrow! After tossing for so long, Fanji was indeed a little tired, and said lightly.

"No, sis. The concubine is for the sake of the uncle. Yi Ji plucked up his courage and said.

"Berge? Isn't she in the Middle Palace? What's the matter? "I don't know why for a while.

"Niangniang, I heard that the prince of Qi has fled to Laiyi, and the king has also deprived Lu Buchen of the inheritance of this lineage. So ------ Birge's family?"

"Well, you can rest assured. Before, he just said that he promised to marry the son of Qi, and it may not necessarily be the son of Lu Buchen, whoever is the son of Qi will marry whoever Bo Ji marries. Lu Jing also has many sons, and she will definitely re-establish a son in the near future. Fanji didn't care about her worries at all.

"However, the concubine heard that there are many people in Qi who are not satisfied with the new Qi Marquis, will they ------ in the future" is just a daughter, Yiji is very worried that his daughter will become an innocent victim in the battle for the throne of Qi State, and she will lose the notoriety of a "Kefu".

"Smack-" With a sound, the jade bracelet on Fanji's wrist collided with the case table crisply, and she became angry: "You are so bold!" What qualifications and identity does a harem concubine have to talk about Wang Ji's marriage? The family affairs of the Son of Heaven are also state affairs, you dare to point fingers at state affairs, have you forgotten what your identity is? ”

"The mother is angry, the concubine knows that she is wrong!" Yiji kowtowed and apologized.

"It seems that if you are not punished severely, you will be punished every day. From now on, you will be grounded in the palace for three months, and you will not be allowed to step out of the palace without the palace order! ”

Yi Ji bowed and withdrew, and the sheep asked cautiously: "Niangniang, who will go to the matter of Fengyi?" ”

A strange smile appeared on Fanji's face: "I want to be left, wouldn't it be better to let the king take Ji Jiang there?" The courtiers are comparing her to Su Daji, this time she hit the muzzle of the gun herself, thinking that the king is the only favor, and she can't complain about others! ”

The reason why King Ji Xie of Zhou Yi lost his position with his uncle King Zhou Xiao back then, in addition to the reason that he was not a concubine, his own character flaws were also a very important factor. He is not bad by nature, but he has soft ears, no opinions, and is easily manipulated by others. Such a person needs a resolute and resolute person to pull him back to the right path at any time, such as the queen Fanji.

Ji Jiang was very keen to grasp this shortcoming of his, and used it to achieve his goal. She held her one-year-old son Shang's father and successfully intercepted King Zhou Yi on the way to the middle palace in the main hall, kneeling and begging, coupled with the crying of the child in her arms, which successfully made Ji Xie's heart soften.

Ji Jiang is very flamboyant in front of Fanji and the rest of the concubines on weekdays, but facing King Zhou Yi is completely different.

"When this incident came out, all the people blamed the concubines, and they said anything unpleasant. The sisters in the palace are also disgusted with me, and no one talks to the concubine on weekdays, and even the concubine's own concubine who married me ignores me. If even the king is disgusted with me, then the concubine can only go to find death, woo woo woo ------"

Seeing her crying pitifully, Ji Xie also felt sad. I thought that she shouldn't be blamed for this matter in the end, the words were said by Ji Hou, and the order was given by herself, so she shouldn't be accounted for. Looking at Ji Jiang's weak posture again, it seems that he has indeed suffered a lot of grievances these days, and he didn't feel soft-hearted, so he pulled her up and said, "Cousin, okay, when Gu comes back from Fengyi, I will definitely go to Qiuliao Palace to see you." ”

"King," Ji Jiang cried so much that the whole person looked pitiful: "The concubine misses the king, but she doesn't see it for a moment and feels tormented in her heart." It's better for the king to take his concubine with him! ”

"This ------" King Zhou Yi hesitated, he originally wanted the queen to accompany him to the sacrifice, but Fan Ji refused on the grounds that the palace was busy. Now ------ looking at Ji Jiang's eyes full of hope, he really couldn't bear to disappoint her, so he nodded.

On the way from Hokyo to Fengyi, the princes were all talking. In fact, for the fact that Qi Hou Lu Buchen was killed in the palace, people not only had palpitations, but even resentment. Everyone knows that it was because of the admonitions of Ji Hou's father and daughter that this unprecedented tragedy happened since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty - the Son of Heaven killed the princes of a country in front of the princes of the Quartet. But things are still hot, the daughter of the culprit actually entered the palace in a grand manner, and swaggered through the market in public, showing off King Zhou's favor for her. Isn't this a sign of the country's demise? Many people think of Su Daji, the demon concubine of the King of Shang back then, and it seems that this Ji Jiang is not far behind.

In stark contrast to her, the queen's behavior won the unanimous praise of the people of Hojing.

In order to clean up the mess left by the demon concubine, the queen took the initiative to give up the opportunity to sacrifice Fengyi with the king, and stayed in the palace to take care of the palace concubines who had suffered great physical and mental injuries.

Especially the son born by Huang Huan early, it is said that this son was not much bigger than a strong man's slap when he was born, and his skin was wrinkled like cinnamon. Because the premature baby was unable to suck, the child could not suck the milk of the nursing mother, and was so hungry that he cried, and the cry was like that of a kitten. Fanji Niangniang specially supervised the production of a particularly small and thin spoon, so that the nurse could express the milk and feed it to the child little by little. It was winter, and I was afraid that the child would freeze, so thousands of catties of silver silk charcoal were sent into Huang Huan's palace at a high price, and I heard that they were all saved by the queen from her own middle palace.
