Since Liu E's death, Queen Guo has gradually become the master of this harem.

Although she only has one daughter under her knees, her status is respected, and even if those harem concubines have some favor, they will never dare to be pampered and proud in front of her.

In the small room in the back, she knelt on top of the futon, begging in her heart that the gods and Buddhas would bless her to give birth to a son.

The statue was speechless, and a Taoist book was spread out on the ground.

Still!

"Mother's ......"

"Hmm!"

Empress Guo slowly opened her eyes.

The female official Zhao Shangshu stood outside the door and said in a low voice: "There is news." ”

Empress Guo lives here, and there is no major event that will not alarm her.

"There was a rebellious ambush last night that ...... Qin Wei"

There was more coldness in her eyes, and she asked, "How is it?" ”

Zhao Shangshu said: "That rebellious leader ......"

"Mr. Li!"

Empress Guo had learned about this person from Zhao Zhen before.

"Yes, it seems to be this person." Zhao Shangshu lowered his head and said, "Qin Wei was almost killed, and then Ye Shuangchou made a move...... Qin Wei didn't know what to use to ignite Mr. Li......"

"Good!"

Empress Guo said happily: "Then Mr. Li, I have also heard of it, I heard Your Majesty say that it was a madman who could not be controlled, and now he is finally dead, otherwise His Majesty will have to be careful when he leaves the palace in the future......"

"I don't know if I live or die."

Zhao Shangshu said embarrassedly: "Then Mr. Li doesn't know if he lives or dies, Qin Wei chased and killed his subordinates overnight, and finally killed them all...... The Cao family also went. ”

"The Cao family? They're good at calculating...... His Majesty once said that Qin Wei is a person who values love and righteousness, and the Cao family helped Qin Wei this time, and he will ...... in the future."

As the number of concubines in the harem increased, Empress Guo felt more and more that her status was unstable.

There were courtiers who proposed to choose the daughters of the nobles to enter the palace to fill the harem, and the Cao family was one of them, and now they are allied with the Qin family, and it seems that they are also going to make plans.

Empress Guo asked, "How is the lady of the Qin family?" ”

"I said I was overthinking and almost fainted!"

Zhao Shangshu remembered the Liu Shu he had seen, and couldn't help sighing: "Qin Wei is very affectionate to his wife, so the lady of the Qin family is naturally worried about her husband......"

Such a couple is enviable.

Look at this ...... in the palace again His Majesty may be good to Niangniang, but he can't be like Qin Wei, only one person in his life......

Empress Guo looked at her embarrassed appearance and said coldly: "Go and tell Your Majesty that I want to leave the palace." ”

Belch!

The queen can't leave the palace easily!

Although there are no explicit regulations, the identity of the queen is too important, and it is inevitable that she will be criticized early when she leaves the palace.

But Queen Guo looked at her coldly and shouted, "Diao slave! Get lost! ”

Belch!

Several palace maids outside were a little stunned, this Zhao Shangshu is the queen's intimate person, and he has always been courteous, what's wrong today?

Fang Yuan felt a little strange.

However, it is the general mentality of the people in the palace that the dead Taoist friend does not die and the poor Taoist is the general mentality of the people in the palace, and he is standing outside with a loyal face.

Zhao Shangshu retreated with a pale face, someone caught a glimpse, and after she left, he whispered: "She cried." ”

"Shut up!"

Fang Yuan drank these people, then went in and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Niangniang?" ”

Empress Guo stood with her hands in her hands, her posture upright.

She glanced at Fang Yuan and said coldly, "Get out!" ”

Fang Yuan touched his nose and went out to stand, and when someone rushed over, he sneered: "What should be the crime of disturbing the mother, ask him!" ”

This was a good opportunity to blackmail and vent his anger, and the two chamberlains smiled and shouted, "What are you running? I'm not afraid of disturbing my mother's ......."

For his wife, Zhao Zhenzhen's emotions are probably complicated.

On the one hand, she felt that Queen Guo was too jealous and tyrannical, but in that situation back then, if Queen Guo was a person who could be bullied, she would not have been able to get to this point today.

On the other hand, when she seized power by herself, Queen Guo stabilized the harem in time, and such a queen can be regarded as a virtuous helper.

But the question is......

An excellent virtuous helper can not only help the emperor manage the harem, but also give birth to a son...... A harem master with no heirs, how far can she go?

So for the status of Queen Guo, Zhao Zhen used to break the butt of a Diao slave as a guarantee.

Don't mess with the Queen!

As long as I don't change the queen for a day, Queen Guo is still the lord of these six palaces, and people should not be despised and despised .

Here's his hint!

But the visitor shouted: "Get out, Your Majesty is here." ”

The two trouble-seeking chamberlains came back with a dirty face, Fang Yuandui greeted them with a smile, Zhao Zhen strode over, Xu Mao followed closely, followed by Zhao Shangshu.

Zhao Shangshu's face was still pale, and he followed behind.

"I've seen Your Majesty."

Fang Yuan saluted, seeing her appearance, he knew that this person would be difficult in the future, as a person close to the noble, he would generally be respected.

Grumpy as Queen Guo is still like this.

But today Zhao Shangshu was scolded by Queen Guo, which is a bad start.

There are so many female official positions in the palace, and Zhao Shangshu's official position is 'Shang Gong', which is the top among female officials, and is respectfully called 'Shangshu'.

This is a fragrant dumpling, after today, someone will dig a pit for her, and then see Queen Guo's reaction. If Empress Guo doesn't care, then Zhao Shangshu can wash and sleep, and the subsequent attack will overwhelm her.

The sad mood of the rabbit and the dead fox was only for a moment, Fang Yuan followed all the way, and was stopped outside the hall.

Xu Mao said coldly: "Your Majesty and Niangniang have something to say. ”

Fang Yuandui smiled: "Yes, a certain reckless." ”

This person can also be called able to bend and stretch, and Xu Mao raised the threat of this person to a level in his heart.

Then he turned his head and saw Ren Shouzhong in the corner.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

That Ren Shouzhong is also an old man, but he is only in his thirties, although he is not young among the servants, but he is more experienced.

If he can squeeze out the position of Fang Yuan, or......

Xu Mao is almost 60 years old, and he urgently needs a successor to secure his future retirement.

There were a few palace maids in it to accompany her, and after Zhao Zhen came in, he asked, "Why did Miao Ling suddenly leave the palace?" But where did I make you angry? ”

"It's none of Your Majesty'......"

Empress Guo was shy at first, and then said: "Then Mr. Li has been crisscrossing for many years, the Imperial City Division has made great efforts, and Ye Shuangchou has personally shot many times but he can't succeed, this time Qin Wei is in danger, I heard that his wife almost fainted...... The concubine wants to go and compensate for His Majesty......"

I want to check it out. ”

Belch!

Zhao Zhen didn't expect this to be the reason, and he said warmly in his heart: "The queen knows the general ...... Qin Wei has made meritorious contributions to the country over the years, and it is also appropriate to compensate for it. ”

He stared at the several female officials beside the queen, and said coldly: "Protect the mother." ”

……

After leaving the palace, Zhao Shangshu looked at the carriage in front of him with some despair, feeling sad.

She has served Empress Guo for many years, and she can be called conscientious. Now that she is almost thirty years old, she has this embarrassment, how will she be in the palace in the future?

The curtain of the carriage was suddenly lifted, and someone went over to listen, then turned his head and said, "Zhao Shangshu, Niangniang told you to get into the car." ”

Zhao Shangshu was shocked and hurried over.

Except for Zhao Zhen, Empress Guo doesn't like to stay close to people, and even Zhao Shangshu guessed that because Zhao Zhen is the emperor and husband, Queen Guo endured it, otherwise she would rather stay alone.

But now she let herself get into the carriage......

She carefully climbed into the carriage and sat down on her knees, her head bowed, revealing a delicate neck.

Empress Guo looked at this neck and the long black hair, and asked lightly, "Your family is from Yizhou?" ”

"Yes."

Zhao Shangshu didn't know what Empress Guo meant by asking this, so he could only answer cautiously.

"Are your parents still there?"

"Yes."

"Lots of brothers and sisters?"

"Yes."

"Can your parents miss you?"

“……”

Zhao Shangshu looked up blankly, remembering the home with vague memories, as well as his parents and siblings.

"They...... I don't know. ”

She had a mother who could give birth, and brought her many brothers and sisters, and when she had more children, her feelings were scattered, so she was elected to the palace that year, but her parents were just indifferent, saying that she went to enjoy happiness.

Empress Guo's eyes were a little more gloomy.

When he arrived at Qin's house later, Qin Wei had not yet returned, but Liu Shu had already stabilized from the panic.

"I've seen the mother."

Sun Haomin was scared to pee.

Even the queen has come to condole, I'm afraid there are not many holy favors like Lang Jun in the world, right?

"Madam Qin is better?"

"Much better......"

Sun Haomin hurriedly asked Wu's mother to help Liu Shu and bring her out.

"I've seen the mother."

Liu Shu is now in the late stage of pregnancy, and her temper is the same every day, and it is common for her to be uncertain.

Empress Guo saw that Liu Shu's eyes were normal, and she didn't have that kind of weak fear, so she couldn't help but praise her: "Don't be surprised, it's very good......"

I heard that Queen Guo has a lot of temper and is jealous and domineering, if she has an unpleasant sentence that stimulates the pregnant Liu Shu, then Lang Jun is afraid that she will find her desperately when she comes back.

Qin Wei's temperament is probably very kind, that's because you didn't provoke anything he cared about.

If you mess with it......

For example, Mr. Li's gang of subordinates were dragged out by him and chased and killed by the Bishan Army overnight.

"It's a hurdle for a woman to give birth, but is there any discomfort?"

Empress Guo's words made Sun Haomin's heart feel relieved.

As soon as the child was mentioned, Liu Shu subconsciously touched her lower abdomen, with a kind smile on her face, like those women who first became mothers.

Just thinking about it makes my heart feel so sweet.

An attendant couldn't help but smile, and then was glanced at by Fang Yuan, and couldn't help but sweat.

"Women who have just given birth are like this, they can't wait to hug him early, and they are all ...... in their hearts" Queen Guo also looked at it, and then pointed to Zhao Shangshu beside her and asked, "Do you think she is kind?" ”

Liu Shu glanced at Zhao Shangshu inexplicably, nodded and said, "Kind." ”

Empress Guo got up and said, "Go back." ”

After they left, Sun Haomin said fearfully: "Why did the little lady refuse just now? Flowey and the green-haired little man will be able to feed. ”

……

After returning to the palace, Empress Guo went to a small room again.

"Mother let you in."

Zhao Shangshu was still suffering from gains and losses, and after entering, he knelt on the futon on the side, and he didn't dare to come out.

Empress Guo knelt in the middle, her lips moved slightly, but she was silently reciting the scriptures.

After a while, she glanced at Zhao Shangshu and said lightly: "You are twenty-seven years old." ”

Belch!

Do you even know all about co-authoring?

So why did you ask this earlier?

Zhao Shangshu was completely stunned.

"Your parents have given birth to too many children, and you have been out for many years, and they have long forgotten about you......"

"You ......"

Zhao Shangshu finally couldn't help but ask: "Niangniang, you actually know ......"

Empress Guo said coldly: "Twenty-seven years old...... When a woman reaches the age of twenty-seven, she withers from there...... In this house...... Come! ”

A man came in from outside the door.

Empress Guo said coldly: "Tell Your Majesty, the Zhao family is losing everything, I don't like it, drive it out!" ”

"!"

Zhao Shangshu seemed to hear a thunderbolt on a sunny day, she fell on the ground and mourned: "Niangniang, the minister is at fault, the minister is willing to be punished, but he can't leave the palace." ”

What can she do when she leaves the palace?

Thousands of miles back to Yizhou?

She is twenty-seven years old, and it is difficult to find a suitable man to marry at this age. Moreover, the dowry of the Great Song Dynasty woman is very demanding, and her family will not accept such a trouble and burden.

I might keep it, but it's the walking dead!

She raised her head, "The minister is willing to stay in the palace for the rest of his life......"

As long as you work hard in the palace, at least you don't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, which can be called an iron rice bowl.

But what about the outside?

When she goes out at this age, what can she do in Bianliang City?

Probably in the end, I can only fall into the green building.

She didn't want to go!

I'd rather die than go.

"Get out!"

Empress Guo lowered her eyes, her lips moved slightly, and she began to recite the scriptures silently.

"Mother's ......"

Zhao Shangshu just wanted to open his mouth to plead, but two chamberlains came over and set her up.

Empress Guo's status is respected, and it is not a problem for her to drive a palace maid out, but Zhao Shangshu is a female official, or a high-ranking female official like Shanggong, which is a little troublesome.

But she said that Zhao Shangshu did things and lost everything, this can be had, and there is no room for people who are lost around the nobles.

Later, someone replied, "Niangniang, Your Majesty nodded over there, saying that you have something to do, just speak." ”

I heard that there were female officials who were unreliable, how could Zhao Zhen disagree, and immediately made people come.

Empress Guo nodded to a female official, and then began to recite the scriptures silently.

"Zhao, get out of the palace!"

Zhao Shangshu sat paralyzed on the ground and said in despair: "The minister doesn't go out, the minister doesn't go out!" ”

"It's up to you!"

The two chamberlains came with cold faces, probably preparing to take her out of the palace.

"Let's get out."

The female officer came, with a burden hanging from her arm, and handed it to Zhao Shangshu, but Zhao Shangshu was so sad at the moment that she couldn't mention her interest.

"Take a look."

The female officer hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "You open it and take a look." ”

Zhao Shangshu slowly opened the baggage......

"That's banknotes?"

An attendant looked at the stack of banknotes and couldn't help but look greedy.

"It's going to have to be one or two hundred."

"There are very few banknotes, and no one has them. She can take it to Qin Ji to exchange money when she leaves the palace, and she is developed! ”

The voice of envy came from all sides, and everyone understood one thing, it was not a bad thing to drive her out of the palace with Queen Guo! Why else did you send so much banknotes?

Zhao Shangshu recalled today's experience, remembered Empress Guo's questions, and instantly understood.

"...... The minister does not leave the palace! , the minister is willing to serve you for a lifetime! ”
