When the seven-year-old third prince Xiao Yan came back from studying, he also felt that today's atmosphere seemed to be different, why did the queen mother look so happy?

"What's wrong, why are you looking at me like that, don't you know your mother?"

Tao Yao felt a little funny, looking at the villain standing in front of him, seven or eight years old, his eyes were as bright as Fu'an, but he seemed to be a little restrained and would restrain his emotions.

"Is the queen mother still happy today? Is the matter of the harem handled smoothly? ”

Xiao Yan bit his lip and walked to Tao Yao's side step by step, in fact, he knew that his mother's emotions had become a lot in the past six months, and she used to be so gentle and dignified, but since the appearance of that Mrs. Qionghua, everything has changed.

"I've always been good, how did I study today?"

Tao Yao stretched out her hand to bring Xiao Yan over, I have to say that the son and daughter born by the original owner are all so cute, the daughter is lively and cute, the son is introverted, and it is a good blessing to have such a lovely child.

"I will teach me what Taifu teaches, and after I finish learning, I want to come back quickly to accompany my mother and sister, but my father still hasn't come over today?"

When I came back, I still had a trace of anticipation, but I still didn't see my father who always came to accompany them, and I was always a little disappointed, since I had Mrs. Qionghua, my father has really changed.

"You have to know that there are a lot of concubines in the harem, who your father likes and doesn't like, I can't stop it, you should accept this fact for so many years, I am the queen, and there are many big and small things that I do every day, I have to deal with them, and I have to take care of you and Fu'an.

Sometimes I don't even have time to rest when I'm busy, because Qionghua really affected too much of her emotions in the past, many things in the harem have been delayed.

Now I can only pack it all up and pick it up again, but I can't always be immersed in those emotions. “

Tao Yao smiled and shook her head, and said a lot of bitter words, in fact, she also wanted to tell the original owner.

She is a queen, and there are many things to do, and it is really a bad thing to always affect her emotions because of a Mrs. Qionghua.

Therefore, this harem was not managed well in the later period, and the reputation of the former generosity and virtue collapsed suddenly, seeing that the queen was already weak, and the concubines' methods of fighting for wind and jealousy were becoming more and more powerful, and even caused a lot of trouble.

It is precisely because of this that Xiao He is really drifting apart, in her opinion, Xiao He can like any woman, but she can't like a woman who is nine points similar to her once young self.

In Xiao He's opinion, how did the once good wife become more and more bitter as she got older, how could she not even manage the harem well as a queen, and always made so many troubles, and then she simply didn't want to see her.

Anyway, there is already a younger and more beautiful Qionghua around him, who is nine points similar to the wife he once loved, since the main owner can't go back to the beginning, isn't there a stand-in?

The once youthful love has actually become like this, but the main protagonist can't compare to the stand-in.

Xiao Yan opened his eyes and looked at his mother, who was not at all different from before, he believed that these words were said by his mother from the bottom of his heart, because his eyes were not at all different from before, and there was no such heavy sorrow.

"Okay, okay, let's go and play with Fu'an, the affairs of adults shouldn't involve you."

Tao Yao smiled and pushed Xiao Yan over the two children, now they are still young, they just need to grow up happily, and they shouldn't worry about these things in the harem.

After dinner with her two children in the evening, Tao Yao was not ready to freshen up and rest, she knew that someone would come.

Sure enough, I saw Yunxi coming over with a heavy face, and reported that Mrs. Qionghua was here.

"I told you in the daytime, don't let her be a knife into my heart, learn to ignore Mrs. Qionghua, come over when you come, why do you look bitter and hateful?"

Looking at Yunxi's worried look, Tao Yao reprimanded a few words, and from now on, all habits must be changed.

Don't hear the words Mrs. Qionghua as if she is facing a great enemy, will the queen treat a little lady as an opponent?

"It's the mother who is right, and the slave knows it's wrong."

Yunxi hurriedly lowered his head and admitted his mistake, knowing that he had just done something stupid again, and also realized that the more he did this, the more he would make Mrs. Qionghua proud, and he had been worried for too long.

"Say hello to the Queen."

Qionghua was wearing a water-blue skirt at the moment, which made Tao Yao take a more look, and the original owner's favorite was also aqua blue.

"Get up."

Tao Yao smiled, and glanced at Qionghua's face a few more times, it was indeed quite similar to the original owner, seventeen or eighteen years old was when he was young and beautiful, no wonder Xiao He would find such a stand-in to stay by his side.

What a beautiful thing this is, the wife who once loved each other has gone through many years of ups and downs, and she is no longer as young as she was at the beginning, and now she has found a perfect young stand-in, and blames her for why she can't tolerate it generously.

He felt that he could tolerate so many women in the harem, but why he couldn't tolerate Qionghua, in his opinion, it was really an incredible thing.

"Today I made the queen unhappy again, it's really my fault, Your Majesty personally said let me apologize to the queen mother, I hope the mother can be in a better mood!"

After Qionghua got up, she looked at Tao Yao's eyes without timidity, she was honest and scared when she was brought back to the palace at first, but gradually she became more and more bold.

Because he realized that he still had a place in His Majesty's heart, many times His Majesty even favored her, but the queen was also the queen after all.

"You don't have to tell me, whether these are sincere apologies or not, this palace understands very well in his heart, but he really feels a little emotional when he looks at you. I remember when Your Majesty brought you back to the palace, you lowered your head and didn't dare to look at me, but now you are wearing gold and silver, and you dare to look me in the eyes! ”

Tao Yao said with a smile, the four titles of Mrs. Qionghua are really beautiful, when Xiao He gave the order, the original owner was the first to refuse.

She had a hunch that this woman was different from all the women in the harem and would be a very dangerous person.

Later, her hunch finally came true.

"All this is given to me by His Majesty, if the mother has any dissatisfaction, go directly to Your Majesty, and His Majesty must bring me back to the palace that day, they all say that the harem is not a peaceful place, and now it can be regarded as seeing it!"

Qionghua is really not afraid at all, and directly satires in a weird way.

In the past half a year, I have already seen the situation clearly, Your Majesty will indeed give the queen some face, but he will not punish herself, because her appearance is really similar to the queen!

Everyone said that this was her greatest blessing, because she looked similar to the queen mother to get everything she is now, but this is what she is most dissatisfied with!

Why do you have to be similar to the queen to get these, doesn't you say that the person you are most grateful for is the queen?

The more this is the case, the more she is dissatisfied, just to prove that she is also a unique existence in His Majesty's heart, and she is not a stand-in for the queen!

"Do you know that Your Majesty had a very favored concubine Concubine Xuan, her appearance was so beautiful that even I couldn't help but admire, but the more she was favored, the more she made enemies in the harem, and I protected her several times.

Later, the red face and the thin life also went, at that time, His Majesty also praised me for chatting and being generous and dignified, you are just a lady, how can you compare with Concubine Xuan, I can even tolerate Concubine Xuan, why can't I tolerate you? “

Tao Yao said funny, in fact, after not having those inexplicable feelings, it is really ridiculous to look at these things, why does a little lady think that she will be a big stone in the queen's heart?

"This?"

Qionghua was suddenly stunned, she didn't expect Tao Yao to say such a thing, she didn't seem to be different from her before, as long as she said a few words casually, she could anger the other party.

A little lady can make the queen lose her temper like a great enemy, but what a powerful thing, but how can the current queen suddenly become so calm, and she still has the heart to talk about other people's affairs.

"You have to know that there are many concubines in the harem, will Your Majesty abolish all the other people for you, including the queen of the palace?" Tao Yao asked rhetorically.

Qionghua lowered her head a little embarrassed, not daring to answer, because she knew that this answer was impossible, no.

Even if His Majesty once liked the queen so much, didn't he have so many concubines, and didn't he have his own existence?

"Or do you think you look similar to Hongu, which is your greatest confidence?"

"No, I've never felt that way!"

As soon as he said this, Qionghua quickly shook his head, this is the most dissatisfied place, how can he feel like it.

"You don't think so, isn't that what happened?"

Tao Yao smiled, "Why do you think His Majesty wanted to bring you back in the first place, you are just a civilian woman, why did he take a fancy to you?" It's because you look similar to Hongu that that's the most important thing! ”

Tao Yao wants to say this fact nakedly, which is what the original owner wants to avoid, and it is also what Qionghua has always wanted to deny, but no matter what, this is always the most important fact.

Because Xiao He did bring Qionghua back because of this.

"Why would the Queen Mother say such a thing? Don't you mind at all? ”

This is what Qionghua is most surprised about, although she also knows this fact in her heart, but in the past, the queen never dared to deal with it head-on, and she tried her best to escape like herself, why did she say it so generously now?

"This palace doesn't mind," Tao Yao smiled brightly, "There are a lot of concubines in the harem, if you have to mind one by one, I, the queen, might as well not do it, not to mention that you are only a lady and have not become a concubine, nor have you been a concubine, I'm afraid you won't be able to enter my eyes!" ”

Tao Yao didn't mind saying it more harshly, after all, this is the case, even if the queen wants to mind, she should mind the concubine and the concubine, not a lady.
