Volume 1: The First Birth (The Future Is Unclear, Friend and Foe Are Inseparable; Clues to the real murderer) Chapter 56 Convince the Queen Mother
The attendant who returned in front of Mrs. Wei finally returned to the Hanxiang Hall before the last touch of the slanting sun disappeared, and after some words, he actually told the earlier story very appropriately and sincerely, especially the words of Mrs. Wei and Yao Ji, without adding a word.
It wasn't until the Queen Mother asked that the chamberlain added two sentences of "tasting".
From the point of view of the cheap slave, Mrs. Tai's attitude is very tough, whether it is to expose Yao Ji's bad deeds, or only from the Empress Dowager's will, she blurted out without hesitation, and did not even let Xiao Junjun intervene a word, as if she was very protective of her shortcomings...... Besides, Yao Ji is indeed ignorant...... I'm afraid it's hard to be useful. ”
I don't know how Yao Ji should feel when she knows that she is described as a waste at this time, but Empress Dowager Wei shook her head with a smile: "Things gather like like, and the Yuan family has that opinion, let alone this Yao Ji." ”
The queen mother didn't want to waste more of this matter, and she didn't want to be more wasted the next day, but the princess of Weijun came hand in hand with Concubine Xian, and after some flattery words, Xiao Wei asked: "Sister, I heard that Concubine Xian said that you sent the inner servant to Liufu and advised the fourth sister to bring Yao Ji as a concubine, how about it, the fourth sister agreed?" ”
The Queen Mother glanced at her, a fellow sister, and said angrily: "You already knew about this, right?" ”
Xiao Wei had already heard Concubine Xian say at this time that the matter of their "internal news" had been perceived by the Queen Mother, and the rhetoric had been calculated in advance, and at this time, she actually followed the appearance of the little girl, and pouted pretentiously: "Sister! It was Concubine Xian who was not sure whether you should allow this matter, so she discussed it with me, and I knew that you would not let go so easily, so I suggested that Concubine Xian should not be too anxious, and it would be more successful when you were in a good mood. ”
In fact, Princess Weijun didn't want to hide a lot of trouble like this, but her sister, although she was usually easy to talk to, but once the "overall situation" was involved, it would never tolerate selfishness, and any relatives and personal grievances had to stand aside, so she had to be cautious, in order to promote Qiao's incident, she had to go around in such a big circle.
Empress Dowager Wei didn't pursue it further, and seemed to be even more impatient to elaborate, so she simply called the eunuch yesterday and asked him to say it again.
This incident was naturally not what Xiao Wei expected, but it made Concubine Xian angry, thinking that her face could be planted this time, and what face would she brag about in front of Sister Yao Ji in the future, she was angry for a while, so she forgot about her fear, and said a sentence: "Good Wei, but also too arrogant, who does she think she is?" ”
Princess Yoshikawa raised her eyebrows slightly, but the Queen Mother snorted coldly and said, "Who do you think she is?" She is my fourth sister, born with a surname, and her husband's family is also Jingzhao Shiwang, she is the wife of the Liu family, how can you be disrespectful? ”
Concubine Xian came back to her senses, quickly raised her body and knelt down, and bowed down again, but she said without grievances: "Queen Mother, the concubine is unfair to you, and Mrs. Tai's words are ...... Since Mrs. Tai ignored the edict of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother Mo Ruo did as she wished......"
"Yuan, how big of face do you have? An old friend, who sued for a mere concubine, actually wrote a letter to me? You don't think it's ridiculous, but I don't want to lose this person, Yuan, you have been a concubine in the palace for more than two years, how to talk and act without a long brain, what kind of temperament Yao Ji is, you will not know anything? How dare she murder her concubine, instigate her own daughter to slander, and dare to offend the main room, and want to sue her concubine? It was Liu Shaoqing who sent her back to Yao's house with a letter of paper, and no one would say that Liu Shaoqing was inappropriate, but would only laugh at Yao Ji for doing it herself. The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows: "You only said how jealous the Xiao family is, I actually believe you, and I will be embarrassed with you this time, and you still have the face to let me make a decree to force my own sister to tolerate the concubine's arrogance?" ”
The Queen Mother is open-minded on the surface, which only makes people feel very approachable, but those who have had further contact with her are all shocked by the Queen Mother's power without anger, not to mention such a powerful remark that was split on the head, and almost didn't split the concubine's eyes and fell directly on her back.
"Go back to your dormitory, I will teach you the rules of etiquette with the female officer, and you will not be allowed to enter or leave without my permission!" The Queen Mother didn't seem to be relieved, and with a wave of her sleeves, she followed Concubine Shu and simply grounded Concubine Xian again.
Only Xiao Wei's heart is bright - how could she, the elder sister, believe Concubine Xian's words and think that Xiao is jealous? That's the most ridiculous thing in the world.
However, of course, the princess did not say what she was thinking, she first presented a sandalwood drink to let the queen mother dissipate, and after an interval of half a moment, she pleaded slightly for Concubine Xian: "Concubine Xian was born in a slight cold, not as good as the surname of the lady, and she is naturally inferior to her knowledge, but Sister always has to remember her dedication to serving sincerity and filial piety in the past two years, but don't be angry for too long, angry with herself, and frightened Concubine Xian, how can someone say those witty words to make you joke in the future, I see, there are so many concubines in the harem, all of them are like stake beauties, boring and tight, the concubine will not say it, There is also Concubine Shu, she is a beautiful lady, don't say witty words, how much better is her words and deeds than Concubine Xian? ”
The Queen Mother frowned slightly: "Only her witty words can only make me laugh, and they can't enter the ears of the saint." ”
"This is even more humiliating for the virtuous concubine, where is her fault, I want to complain, I complain that Empress Pei is too charming, and I don't know what kind of magic I have cast on the saint......"
"The more you talk about it, the more you don't talk about it." The Queen Mother put on a straight face, but in the end she screwed the little sister hard, and she didn't pursue it again.
Xiao Wei smiled again: "Concubine Xian just said something wrong, but in my opinion, the fourth sister is indeed too arrogant, knowing that it is Sister A's intention, but she still talks about Yizhi, and it is clear that she doesn't take Sister A in her eyes, and she is still arrogant and despises Sister as before." ”
The Queen Mother also smiled, and completely restrained her anger: "If she agrees easily this time, I have to suspect that she is suspicious, don't say that you don't know the temperament of the fourth sister, she has always protected her shortcomings, how could the sixth sister be stubborn at the beginning, she didn't cover up for the sixth sister, she couldn't cover it up, Aya punished it, she dared to fight for reason." ”
"It's a pity that Sister A and I have never been among the four sisters." The princess of the county sneered coldly: "Sister, I have long wanted to persuade you, don't trust the fourth sister, when you were so vigilant, she was stubborn and did not treat the Pei family, but in front of the prince of Yuanping County, she put on a posture of affection and righteousness, as a result, the Pei family still got a 'sudden illness', isn't this strange?" ”
Regarding this matter, the Queen Mother did feel a little puzzled.
"Sister thought it was the fourth sister who was pretending to be tough on the surface, but secretly let Pei's violent death, so that she had a moral and virtuous name, but she would not be implicated by Pei Zheng, Yuanping County was an honest man, and she was deceived by the fourth sister, and she didn't want to marry again, and the fourth sister let him do the same...... If it weren't for Sister A's reminder, the Duke of Yuanping County would only be afraid that he would still be in the dark now, and he would be as filial to the fourth sister as his biological mother. But Sister, are you really sure that the Duke of Yuanping County has no second intentions? Need to know...... The birth mother of the county prince passed away early, and the fourth sister became her stepmother, but she was never harsh, and later married Pei's family, the fourth sister not only didn't care, but was very enthusiastic, and the mother-son relationship between them was really so easy to have a gap? ”
Of course, Empress Dowager Wei had already thought of these doubts, so the public talents of Yuanping County were not important in national politics.
"However, in the end, the county prince is the son of the Liu family, and his role is very important." Xiao Wei leaned over slightly, and made another suggestion: "Sister, do you know the temperament of the fourth sister, this time it is related to the Xiao family, her sister-in-law and daughter-in-law, and the fourth sister is the most proud of the Xiao family, and she is bound to protect her shortcomings...... But Sister, the fourth sister may not know your consistent temperament, she should also understand that for a mere concubine, you will not turn against her. ”
This was really neglected by Empress Dowager Wei, because people are inevitably confident, especially smart people.
Seeing that the queen mother frowned again, the princess hurriedly said: "Sister, in fact, the fourth sister has a deep dislike for you, how can you two not be harmonious, what's the use of you testing her if she pretends to compromise?" How can she be convinced of you, I think, the key is to know whether the fourth sister is really powerful, as long as she compromises with power and proves that she has no courage to disobey you, whether she is sincere or not? ”
This is very reasonable, Empress Dowager Wei couldn't help but sigh, the authorities are obsessed with bystanders, Qingzhi said, it is indeed very reasonable.
"As for whether the fourth sister and the prince of Yuanping are not on good terms, there is also a plan that can be revealed." Xiao Wei smiled, simply got up, sat down next to the Queen Mother, covered Yan Hong's cherry mouth, and whispered.
After hearing this, the Queen Mother really felt that this plan was very good: "If the fourth sister does not follow and is willing to give birth to a daughter for the Pei family and anger me, it means that Pei's death was not as I expected, but there is something else strange, and Liu Yuyi's relationship with her is also an illusion; If she agrees to sacrifice Liu Siniang to protect her granddaughter, Liu Jungong will inevitably be dissatisfied, even if she can't argue openly, she will take action in secret. ”
And more importantly, once Liu Wuniang marries into the Wang family, won't she have a better chance to win the support of this hope?
As soon as Wei Shi saw the queen mother's expression, he knew that the plan had succeeded, and he couldn't help but be complacent - thanks to the advice of the county king, this matter would go so smoothly.
But he didn't listen to it and asked again: "Liu Wuniang's mother, Qiao's family, how many benefits did you promise to let you waste so many brains and do your best for her daughter to marry into the Wang family." ”
Wei Shi couldn't help but be stunned, and only after half a sound did he come out: "Sister, I do think about you, even if I have some selfishness, it is because of Xuanqing, who made Qiao her niece...... That Wang Qilang heard that his literary talent is outstanding, and he will be able to use it for Sister A in the future, why bother to give birth to a daughter from the Pei family, when the time comes, Sister Ah will have to take precautions while using it, and she will not be tired. ”
These words made the Queen Mother laugh, and she stretched out her hand and poked her little sister: "You, you are good friends...... I can only remind you that people like Liu Xuanqing have ordinary contacts, and there are some things, don't get involved with her. ”
Wei Xiaomei smiled like a flower and promised again and again, the sisters are so close and harmonious, they are really envious of others.
