Chapter Seventy-Two

"Where has the emperor gone? Let the minions be easy to find! ”

Father-in-law Yin trotted over from the bottom of the stairs, panting and anxiously asked.

Then a group of palace people gathered a few people to come forward, and the person who was headed by the queen mother was wearing a luxurious high-sleeved dark ink-colored phoenix robe, and there were several accompanying ladies behind her, who went to the corridor and saluted the emperor one after another.

Then Father-in-law Yin stepped forward to serve the emperor, Wei Ning quietly said goodbye and left, only Miss Su stood by her side with a shy face.

Qi Lin suppressed the discomfort in his heart, walked to the Queen Mother and asked, "Why is the Queen Mother here?" ”

Hearing the sound, the Queen Mother's eyes searched around, and made sure that there was no one around, as if she let go of her suspicions, put down the hand on the tassel arm, and explained lightly to the emperor.

"The servants who are waiting around you go to the mourning family to report, it turns out that the emperor is in the same place with the girl of the Su family, Mingzhu, the girl of the mourning family, looks like it, since the emperor is interested in the Su girl, the mourning family gives the emperor a marriage."

When she spoke, the Queen Mother did not pause, pretending to be surprised to see Su Shi and the emperor appear together, but there was no surprise in her eyes.

What is the relationship between the Su family and the Queen Mother, Su Shangshu holds the military power in the court, and he is a person who can compete with the cabinet and the Yu family, everyone knows it, the Queen Mother intends to match, and the Su family is included in the harem is a certainty.

The Queen Mother turned around with a smile and said to Miss Su's biological mother: "Mrs. Su, the mourning family will give the pearl to the emperor as a concubine, are you willing?" ”

Mrs. Su stepped forward respectfully, respectfully bowed to the Queen Mother, and couldn't stop smiling when she got up.

"Mingzhu can enter the palace to accompany the emperor, it is an honor for Mingzhu and an honor for the Su family, and the concubine is grateful for the kindness of the Queen Mother."

The Su family and the royal family are in-laws, and with the blessing of the Su family's status as the secretary of the military department, the Su family's status in the court is bound to be in the ascendant, and such a good thing is naturally disrespectful.

"Courtier, Empress Dowager Xie!" Su Mingzhu knew that the Queen Mother had discussed privately with her mother, and marrying into the palace was her best choice now.

What is it to be bullied by Princess Lehua on the street that day, as long as she can enter the palace as a concubine, with the status of her mother's family in the court, the position of the middle palace is just around the corner!

Those people she hated, she tried her best to place that down-and-out young lady Wei Lan, but she couldn't get rid of her, so when she became the imperial concubine, she would always find an opportunity to trample on it!

"The emperor has not had any heirs since he ascended the throne, there are only two concubines in the harem, and he has not established the middle palace for a long time, so it turns out that the queen mother is the meaning of this." Other ladies whispered underneath.

"Su's current status is second only to Lord Shoufu, and the Queen Mother is important, if Miss Su enters the palace, her status in the future will not be the same......"

"Let's be careful in the future, but don't bump into the nobles."

Everyone knew in their hearts that after the Queen Mother's birthday banquet today, they would have to flatter the Su family when they saw it.

"Erchen has just ascended the throne, and he wants to take charge of state affairs first, and it is better to discuss the matter of choosing a concubine..."

At this time, the emperor wanted to refute a few words.

When the queen mother heard this, she immediately persuaded with majesty: "What the emperor said is that the mourning family also thinks that the emperor is only pro-government, lest the burden of government and government on his body be too heavy, and many caring people around him take care of it, and the mourning family is also relieved, and the continuation of the emperor's heirs is also a state affair, and the emperor has to think twice." ”

The meaning of these words is friendly, but it is difficult to hide the majesty and strength, the queen mother does not dare to disagree with the government, and the emperor does not dare to refuse the queen mother's intentions.

"It's the son's negligence... The sons listened to the arrangement of the queen mother. ”

Qi Lin's thick eyebrows twisted slightly, hiding the hatred flowing on his face.

How can he not hate, although he has succeeded to the throne as the emperor, he is still under the control of others, and he can't even make the decision who to appoint as a concubine and see the woman he loves.

After being silent for a while, he finally retracted slightly.

Concubine Lan said softly behind the rockery: "As my lord expected, the lady and the emperor stayed in the library for a long time before coming out, and I asked the palace maid to reveal the emperor's whereabouts to the queen mother, and she quickly led the Su family away." ”

The clear spring in front of the rockery is lightly drained, and there is a slender figure in white clothes and snow standing on the side of the clear pond.

"Niangniang is doing a good job, the official knows."

The two words were as light as a breeze, which made Xiao Lanxin feel relieved.

Although she believed in Lord Rong, she still had doubts: "Can your lord tell me how to bring down the Queen Mother and the Yu family?" ”

Now she is in the harem, every night is always awakened by nightmares, she can't wait to get revenge on the enemy early, Lord Rong is unfathomable and clever, and the queen mother is now moving, she is afraid that something will go wrong.

Hearing this, Rong Xunjun's eyes were a little smiling.

He explained softly: "Niangniang doesn't have to be anxious, the time has not yet come, the queen mother and the Yu clan are intertwined in the court, but when the fox always shows its tail, Niangniang just needs to wait for the opportunity and keep an eye on the Su family." ”

But when he spoke, no one noticed the anger hidden in his eyes.

He asked Concubine Lan to test Wei Ning, she finally saw the emperor, coincidentally the nine doors made a move today, if he didn't secretly bluff to lure the man in black away, it would inevitably arouse the suspicion of the queen mother.

The battle in the court is treacherous, how can he say a few words, it is reasonable for Concubine Lan to have concerns, including the woman he bothered to put around him, and he did not want to implicate her in this quagmire.

Rong Xun saw her nodding, so he said goodbye with a relieved face.

"I wrote it down, thank you for your advice." Watching the man's handsome back leave, Xiao Lan felt a trace of melancholy in her heart.

She was so envious of that Mrs. Rong, what a blessing it would be to have someone so protective.

In the backyard of the Guogong Mansion, Mama Xu happily attracted a person from the front yard: "Big lady, Miss is here." ”

Taking advantage of the opportunity to leave the mansion, Wei Ning specially returned to the Gongfu to visit the Zhang family.

Zhang hurriedly stepped forward, concerned and enthusiastic to pull his daughter to ask for warmth.

"I can finally see Ning'er, my mother misses it very much! Why didn't I see you come back from the house during this time? Listening to the shopkeeper of the Wei family, you should also go to the shop less to see some business. ”

"Rong Mansion, but what kind of person is bullying you? Shousuke-sama is so good to you..."

These words were full of warm family affection, and Wei Ning saw Zhang's and felt a warm heart that he had never felt before.

In the book world, they are dearest relatives, and she cherishes this family affection and makes a wish, vowing to do her best to protect them!

Wei Ning smiled back at her: "Mother, you don't have to worry about me, everything is fine, as long as my mother is healthy, I will be content." ”

Zhang's eyebrows were smiling, his face was relieved and nodded, and asked Mama Xu to buy her favorite food so that she could take it back.

"That's fine, Ning'er is so competitive, my mother is very pleased, but my mother would rather not want these, I just hope that you are safe and smooth."

Yuyan and Ziling glanced at each other, and couldn't help but be moved, the old lady really loved her wife!

Naturally happy when he returned home, Wei Ning responded happily: "Mother treats Ning'er so well, Ning'er has written it down, and she won't worry her mother." ”

After sitting for a while, Zhang Shi said a lot of thoughtful words to her, and then there was a report from the porter in the front hall.

"Mrs. Hui, the master of the front yard is meeting guests, saying that he wants to see Miss, and let Miss go over and sit down."

As soon as the Zhang family heard it, he understood: "I heard that it was the Gu family squire who came to visit your father in the mansion, and wanted to come to the Gu family to have some relationship with us, this Gu Gongzi is now supporting the Gu family, and he is used to being in harmony with his father in the court, and you can also treat each other politely when you see guests." ”

Zhang took her hand with a smile on her face and asked Wei Ning to go to pay a visit, so she got up happily and went to the front hall with her personal maid.

"Miss is here." Hearing the porter's return, the slender and bright figure walked into the hall.

Wei Ningfu saluted and smiled decently: "Greetings to my father, I've seen Master Gu." ”
