Chapter 16: Big Brother Wins the Battle

"Do you want to say hello today, this queen has been sick and recuperating for three days, and I don't know if it's true or not, it's just a mess of our sisters."

Next to Qingchun Pool, Concubine Li led a group of concubines to complain on the way to Cining Palace.

It stands to reason that the queen in the harem is the boss, and all the concubines have to greet her in the morning.

But before everyone packed up and walked to the door of the dormitory, they received the news that the queen mother was sick.

Who doesn't know that the queen's body is comparable to Daiyu, a minor illness in three days, a major illness in five days, and it is possible to go down to see Lord Yama anytime and anywhere.

But Concubine Li couldn't be angry, shaking her fan, and arching the fire with the rest of the concubines: "According to the palace, this queen is an unlucky person, her body is so weak, maybe she will die one day, and it is no wonder that she has not been pregnant with the dragon seed until now." ”

Concubine Li's family dared to say this, but the other concubines didn't dare to talk about it.

"Concubine Li, this person has a lot of eyes, be careful to be listened to by someone who cares, and think that you are cursing the queen behind your back."

"That is, the speaker has no intention of listening, and the listener has the intention, and be careful that trouble comes out of the mouth."

Concubine Li's faction includes An Guiren and Yao Guiren, and these three people are the arch fire experts in the harem.

Even the other concubines who didn't have much opinion on the queen were aroused by their hatred.

In fact, they originally had no opinion on the queen, because the queen's Buddhist party did not pose any threat to them.

And everyone is not favored, no one has reaped any benefits on the emperor's side, and it can be regarded as a bowl of water.

But as a queen, she didn't do what she should do, and she recuperated from illness twice in three days, how could everyone be convinced?

Now the emperor doesn't turn over anyone's brand, and he also arranges the draft in the previous dynasty with great fanfare, which makes those girls who are in their prime feel calm but calm.

Her queen is different, her mother's family is strong, she doesn't have to worry about food and clothing every month, and she has extra silver taels to send in.

Even if she can't conceive a dragon, she still has a good father and a group of brothers and sisters to support her in the front court, and she is not afraid of losing it when she gets old.

But the other concubines are different, when they are old, they will be rejected by the emperor, replaced by the new show girls who entered the palace, and finally died of depression.

After all, as long as the position is sealed, in this northern dynasty, there is no saying that the palace is released, and everyone's fate is either to die of old age in the palace, or to wait for the emperor to die and be buried together.

And the queen's inaction is not to occupy the pit and not.

Among this group of women, only Concubine Ru disagreed: "The queen is not frail and sick for a day or two, why don't we go to visit her." ”

Concubine Li glanced at her: "Sister Rufei is joking, Concubine Qi went to her yesterday and her arm was broken, who dares to go to Cining Palace to see her now." ,”

The forces led by Concubine Li all followed and discussed this.

Concubine Ru shook her head and said, "Concubine Qi's arm is broken, she must have done something disrespectful to the queen's mother, otherwise with the queen's generous and benevolent nature, it is impossible to let the next person do something to Concubine Qi." ”

Concubine Li covered her handkerchief and almost laughed: "I let my sister say everything, if my sister continues to talk about it, won't it seem that she has an opinion on the queen." ”

When Concubine Ru heard this, her eyes darkened for a moment, and her expression was still cold and indifferent; "In that case, then the main palace will retire first, and the sisters will rest early."

After she finished speaking, she took the maid's hand, didn't look at the concubines behind her, and left.

Concubine Li and Yao Guiren looked at Concubine Ru's distant back and glanced at each other, "Concubine Ru is still that tall and withdrawn character, and I don't know who to pretend to show it to." ”

"Concubine Ru's uncle is the younger brother of the Queen Mother, and in this relationship, our sisters can't reach it combined."

"That's right, if the concubine is high and has the capital of Qinggao, it's not like us."

In addition to the queen in the harem, only Concubine Li, Concubine Ru, and Concubine Yu's maiden background is the most powerful, among them, the Jade Concubine is the most different, the Jade Concubine is from the Northern Regions and relatives, representing the entire Northern Regions royal family, and the emperor treats her differently from others.

If you want to accept the concubine Qinggao and arrogant, then the jade concubine is completely alone, and she does not participate in any of the concubines' activities, and she is also locked up in Qingmei Garden on weekdays, staying at home.

However, in view of the fact that no one in the harem is pregnant with a dragon son now, even if the three legs are standing, everyone is fine.

"Okay, we're not here to talk about Concubine Ru."

Concubine Li shook her fan, lazily interrupted a few mouths behind her, and turned her eyes to the direction of Cining Palace, pulling back the topic.

"I heard that today the emperor was angry and sent the Imperial Forest Army to Cining Palace to catch a girl and leave, do you know?"

"It's all going to be so big, who doesn't know."

"It seems that the position of our queen mother is not so stable, otherwise how could the emperor do this with great fanfare, so it is clear that it is to make her lose face."

"Huh."

Concubine Li covered her mouth and smiled as if she was not smiling, but did not intervene, and grabbed the fish food in the maid's hand and sprinkled it into the pool.

A group of fools who don't even understand the emperor's intentions.

The emperor nominally caught the maid around the queen, but in fact he was warning the queen, what he meant was that although he couldn't make a move on her, he could understand the people around her.

Doesn't this move just show that there is already a gap between the emperor and the queen?

As long as the emperor is tired of the queen, it will not be a matter of time before the queen is abolished.

Although I don't know why the emperor wants to deal with the queen, but a queen who will be abolished sooner or later, Concubine Li feels that there is nothing to be afraid of, just wait for the opportunity.

......

After Chu Chenxi got out of the morning court, he went straight to the palace to change into his court clothes and called Fuzi.

Fuzi comprehended, sent out all the servants who were waiting, and leaned in front of the emperor's ear and whispered: "Your Majesty, everything is done." ”

Chu Chenxi's face was dark and uncertain after hearing this, but he bowed his head slightly and did not speak.

Fuzi took out a roster and presented it, and reported it one by one: "The people sent by the slaves have all checked, and the list of those who went to Cining Palace recently is on it, please look at it." ”

Chu Chenxi took the booklet and glanced at it roughly, without even lifting his eyelids, he seemed to be little interested, and only lightly praised: "The efficiency is fast." ”

Fuzi lowered his head and thanked him, and for a while he couldn't guess what His Majesty meant.

Didn't you rush to find out yesterday, why aren't you in a hurry now?

It's really an emperor's heart needle~

Chu Chenxi threw the booklet on the table, got up with his hands down, and sneered: "In the early days of the dynasty today, Yu Chensheng came with good news from northern Xinjiang, saying that it was a great victory at Yanmen Pass, and our army lost no more than 100 people. ”

Fuzi did not understand the holy will, and bowed his head and said; "Then this is good news, why did the slave listen to His Majesty's tone...... I'm not very happy. ”
