After the crown prince and the crown princess left, Concubine An Guifei cried to the emperor for a while, crying and crying, and the CCP only had "If you are gone, the concubine will not live", "In this life, as long as Your Majesty lives a long life, she will leave to see Lord Yama." "And so on.

She also said these words on weekdays, and the emperor was very moved, but after recalling the past with the crown princess today, the emperor felt that he was still not old, not much different from when he was young, so he was a little tired of Concubine An's crying.

He said helplessly: "Concubine, I and you haven't reached the time of life and death, it's just a cold, Yingniang didn't take it seriously, and went back to the East Palace happily, why do you want to live and die here?" ”

Concubine An secretly hated it, and regretted that she cried too much - but crying like this, it was also to see that the emperor was happy with the East Palace couple, which made it even worse, so that the emperor would not see her benefits.

An Guifei used to be a pungent character, and by coincidence made a concubine room for the emperor, at that time, the mother family was not obvious, and there was no power, so she fought this and that when she was in the palace, she still did not mix with the position of the side room, but when she arrived at the palace, she cried once in a while, and was shocked by the emperor, so she turned over directly and won the emperor's favor, and since then the road has been smooth sailing, so unpleasant.

At that time, the queen had already died, and the concubines with prominent families who fought with her either died, only gave birth to daughters, or gave birth to a wasted son, which was overwhelmed. She is the only one who gave birth to the king of Jin who was favored by the saints, and sat on the throne of the concubine.

The emperor did not set up another queen, as a concubine, she controlled the harem, although she did not have the real name of the queen, but she was the same queen.

With such power and status, she thought about it carefully, and found that it was all the crying back then, so she analyzed the crying, there are many ways to cry over the years, and today she also has her unique crying method.

She took out her handkerchief, her eyes drooped lightly, and she wiped her tears with grievance, "Your Majesty, the concubine is also worried about you." The crown princess is young and doesn't understand the heart of the concubine, don't you understand it either? She has a crown prince, and the concubine is only you, even if you have a little wind blowing, it is a big deal for the concubine. ”

She said and said with sorrow, and threw herself into the emperor's arms and said bitterly: "Your Majesty, you have not been sick for many years, the concubines are afraid, if you are sick, come to the concubines, don't take you." ”

The emperor was moved again. In the end, he came over together when he was young, even if he knew that she was crying insincerely, he softened his heart and said: "Okay, okay, the children are still there, they are all grandmothers, how can they still cry like when they were young." ”

After thinking about it, he promised the day of the queen, "I see that there are a lot of good days in late November, why don't you move directly to Yongle Palace?" ”

Yongle Palace is where the empress lived.

Concubine An finally cried out of the queen's position, but she was not happy, and after another conversation, she saw that the emperor was tired, so she got up and retired. When I got out of the door of the Chengde Palace, I walked all the way quickly, walked all the way, and when I returned to my palace, I was already so angry that I couldn't speak.

"Okay, after crying for a long time, he thinks I'm crying for the queen's throne?"

King Jin reassured: "My father has relented, which is also a good thing. ”

An Guifei gritted her teeth, "The position of the queen is mine, I have waited for so long, and I look forward to it every day, but he gives it to me like this, but it makes me sick!" ”

King Jin understood what she meant, but he was helpless, "My father has become more and more suspicious over the years, and he wonders that it is normal for his mother to cry for the queen's throne - just look at what he looks like to the prince, you can know that he also has residual affection for his mother." ”

Concubine An Guifei was also a little angry when she thought of the prince being smashed today and being scolded in the past. Not only was he angry, but he also laughed, "The position of the crown prince, if you continue like this, you will not be able to sit firmly after all, your father really hates him, and he really likes you." ”

She whispered: "Don't be angry that your father doesn't give you the position of the prince, the position of the prince is very important, there is the Su family behind the prince, and now he has attracted some small people, although it is not very important, but it has a good reputation, and your father also has concerns." ”

When King Jin heard this, he frowned and said: "Mother, why do you have to tell your son this day by day, my son only has a plan in his heart, and I have a number of rights and wrongs." ”

An Guifei has bitterness and can't say it. She could see that the King of Jin had already complained about the emperor, so she became more and more flustered, and she had shared the bed with the emperor for more than 20 years, and she knew too well who the emperor was. She grabbed King Jin's hand and said, "You must not have a grudge against your father, if you have hatred, think about the prince...... You have seen the days when the crown prince and your father were separated. ”

When King Jin heard this, he was silent for a while and then suddenly said, "But mother, how long will I live like this?" ”

He smiled bitterly, "I used to think that I was a sharp blade, because my father was brave and good at fighting, and when he saw my sharpness, he thought I was a treasure sword, so he raised me, rejoiced me, and wanted to give me the position of the East Palace." ”

"But then I followed his wishes and embarked on this road of seizing the prince, and the more I went, the more I felt that I was not a knife, but just a whetstone for the prince. Because the prince was really stupid and cowardly, my father saw that I was showing my edge, so he asked the prince to come to me to try the knife. ”

When he said this, he covered his face, "Mother, I am still not a few years old, when my father gave me a piece of jade like the prince, I thought that I was comparable to the prince, and I was not a teenager, I used all my tricks and strategies to open up the road to the court, and fought with the prince to the death, I am now in my twenties, I know what I look like and status in my father's heart...... Mother, am I going to go on like this? What if in the end, my father still only uses me as a whetstone? ”

Concubine An's heart jumped suddenly, and she grabbed King Jin's hand, "Son, what do you want?" Don't do anything stupid. ”

King Jin shook his head, "I don't do stupid things, now that my mother is about to be the queen, and I am also my son-in-law, I will only be more justified." ”

He suddenly smiled and said, "I just don't believe that my father will give me the position of the East Palace as it is, mother, I also have to leave a way back for myself." ”

An Guifei's forehead jumped violently, and she didn't speak for a while, but in the end she agreed with her son's words, and said: "What do you want to do, your mother will naturally pave the way for you, and here in the harem, you don't have to worry." ”

Then he paused and said, "Crown Princess...... is much more powerful than the prince, and the prince is not as good as her. With her there, I'm always uneasy. ”

Princess Jin had been sitting on the chair before and didn't dare to speak, but at this time she replied, "Mother, in the East Palace...... It's not a mess of splendor, isn't the prince's Zhao beauty making trouble together? ”

An Guifei looked over, "Do you have a way?" ”

Princess Jin bowed, "You have to try it." ”

Concubine An hesitated and nodded, "Be careful, don't leave your tail." ”

Princess Jin: "Don't worry, concubine." ”

An Guifei didn't dare to rest assured. Now at a critical time, she is afraid that these two couples will show their feet and disgust the emperor. was so worried, I thought of one thing again, "Today, the crown princess mentioned Suilan's ......"

King Jin's face darkened, "Mother, don't mention him." ”

Concubine An didn't dare to mention it, only sighed, "I don't know if your father really doesn't blame you or what......"

That child, in fact, she also likes it, and she doesn't want him to die. But he was a vassal of the prince, and he was loyal to the prince, and he had no choice but to get rid of him.

She waved her hand, "I'm tired too, so you can go to the side hall to rest." ”

The two husbands and wives of the King of Jin got up and said goodbye, went out, carried the lantern, and the moon and stars outside were scarce, but it was a good day.

……

The moon stars are scarce, the wind is slightly cool, and the autumn is strong.

The feast bell carried a hexagonal glass lamp, and boldly took Guan Gui to say to the Li family: "Auntie, it's a good day, I want to go out to see the night scene." ”

Li Shi was taken aback, "It's so late, what are you going to go out?" Wait for tomorrow, right? ”

The feast bell whispered: "Auntie, we're going back tomorrow, right?" ”

Li touched his nose with a weak heart, "Yes, Your Majesty is sick, King Shun rode away first, and your eldest sister followed, and now she should also go to the palace." It's not good for us to stay here, so we'll have to go back to Kyoto. ”

Where is the reason why His Majesty is sick and suffered, and the courtiers enjoy themselves. Forget about other people's families, King Shun and the crown prince are all back from Xiaoxi Mountain, and when the emperor inquires, okay, you still soak in the hot springs, isn't this a crime plus a second?

Li didn't dare to stay, he was ready to pack up and leave tomorrow morning, but he just coaxed him. She smiled again and said, "It's my aunt who treats you as a child - will you be okay next time?" ”

Feast Bell nodded disappointedly, "Okay, next time." ”

She went back with the hexagonal glass lamp, and the second young lady walked out from behind the screen, patted her chest and said, "Ouch, I almost came out to agree for my mother, why is Yan Ling so good at pitiful?" If I were a man, how could I resist not being nice to her? ”

Li Shi still scolded in action, "Little beasts are not shallow to harm people!" ”

After scolding, he said as if he remembered something: "Let the mother-in-law go and send some supper to Yanling and Xixi, don't be hungry." ”

The mother-in-law went in response, and as soon as she went out, she saw the third young master and the girl Sheng Biao in the courtyard. The three girls are in front, and the third young master is in the back.

The third young master was followed by three or four small maids, and there was also a mother-in-law and maid behind the cousin, and the two met in the verandah, obviously met, the third girl did not see the third young master in front, but the third young master saw the third girl in the back, and did not make a sound.

Both of them wore cloaks worn at night, one was a Zilan jade tree, and the other was charming and docile, looking like a natural pair.

It's really eye-catching, but it's a pity that the portal is wrong.

The mother-in-law sighed secretly, walked over respectfully, and shouted: "Third young master, cousin girl." ”

Ning Shuo was distracted by things, but he didn't notice it for a while, and before he could react, the feast bell had already turned around with a lantern, and the wind helped him through his sideburns, and said with a smile: "Mother Huang, what's the matter?" ”

She had already seen her third cousin! But she didn't dare to look back!

The mother-in-law was confused by her posture for a moment, and then said, "Girl, Madame is asking the old slave to go to the kitchen to call for supper, what does the girl want to eat?" ”

Feast bell: "Just make a bowl of clear water." ”

The mother-in-law nodded, "Yes." ”

When she left, Feast Ling looked at Ning Shuo, and she didn't know what to say, so she asked in a panic, "Third brother, why does the Suijia Courtyard call Xiaoxi Makeup?" But what are the allusions? ”

Ning Shuo was looking at the hexagonal glass lamp in her hand, and was called a third brother, and then came back to her senses, and then muttered: "I don't know, it should be taken from Xiaoxuan Window, and she is dressing up." ”
