Chapter XXXVII
Concubine Li has been staying in the harem during this time, but the emperor still doesn't attach special importance to Concubine Li, if it weren't for the queen mother's request, the emperor wouldn't have come at all.
"Your Majesty, you have made the concubine wait so hard, and the concubine has been looking forward to your coming."
Concubine Li hurriedly asked the maid to prepare ginseng soup and the emperor's favorite pastries.
The emperor has also been busy with government affairs recently, the weather is cold, there are more appropriations in various places, and the demand is also great, the emperor originally wanted to allocate funds this time, but the courtiers told the emperor that the treasury was in short supply.
The emperor immediately raised his eyebrows, how could this treasury be in short supply, this is the prince Ji who reported the matter, and he wants to spend the money elsewhere, this weather is cold, and it is inevitable to put on more silver for the local area.
But will these locals get the money? Prince Ji smiled, and the answer was naturally self-evident.
"There are a lot of things to worry about, I don't have time to come to Concubine Li, I miss you, but every day is the same, I asked those eunuchs and guards to bring you something, have you received it?"
Gonggong Liu has not been here for many days, and the main reason is that the Yellow Emperor told him that the queen needs to be taken care of more, so Gonggong Liu has been going to the queen's bedroom more frequently recently.
Concubine Li knew that the queen had been jealous all the time, thinking that the emperor would either spend all his thoughts on court politics, or else his thoughts would be all on Concubine Li.
Therefore, I sigh and sigh every day, and from time to time, people say that I feel uncomfortable.
"Your Majesty is actually idle, just come to the concubine to sit down and have a cup of tea, this beautiful scenery belongs to the queen's sister."
Thinking of greeting the queen every day, he couldn't help but be ridiculed, especially during that time, when the emperor was thinking about the county lord in the palace.
Although the queen was not happy, she took advantage of this matter to keep Concubine Li from coming to the stage.
"Okay, I know you have some grievances with the queen, but the queen's health is not good at the moment, Concubine Li has always been the most sensible, and she has won my heart, so she should assist the queen."
In front of the emperor, he said something good, and he also expressed his grievances, in fact, Concubine Li was making an umbrella for herself, and the queen was a sick man, and she would have to hang it sooner or later.
In contrast, Concubine Li felt that she was still young and deeply favored by the emperor, and when the queen hung up, she was most likely to become the new queen.
So Concubine Li is now wishing that the queen is not good, this queen makes Concubine Li's life difficult everywhere, and she has become timid because of the queen's interference.
"The concubine wants to help the queen's sister share, but the queen's sister has always been estranged from the concubine."
The emperor took a sip of tea, and he didn't know where to start talking about the rights and wrongs of these harems, and if he didn't say it, it would spread more and more seriously.
"Concubine Li has always been generous and benevolent, I am exhausted from taking care of the government, and the rights and wrongs of this harem are troublesome, and Concubine Xian has a lot to worry about."
Concubine Li was very happy to hear this, the emperor did not think about the problem from the perspective of the queen, but defended her everywhere.
The emperor coaxed a few words, and Concubine Li immediately forgot about the previous unpleasantness.
"The concubines will not disappoint the emperor, and the concubines will definitely help the queen take care of the harem."
The barbarian dynasty's political harem wandered around and said a few intimate words, the emperor was like this every time, not that he had no feelings for these concubines, but that these concubines had nothing to do all day long.
finally met the emperor, and what he said was not something to relieve the emperor's worries, but to convey to the emperor who was not good, and who was scheming.
Every time the emperor heard this, he wanted to leave immediately, but Li Fei was an exception, after all, it was not easy for his brother to guard the stability of the country.
"Okay, I still have to walk around, as Concubine Xian said, go to the queen or go to something else, I always want the rain and dew to be wet."
The words were so, but when Concubine Li heard the emperor say this, she began to be jealous again, muttering her little mouth.
"Lang Jun is too bad."
Unwilling to be unwilling, but the emperor couldn't spend much on her, Concubine Li sent the emperor away, and turned around according to her own calculations.
Counting the red walls and bricks every day, hoping for the emperor to say these few words, the good youth is wasted in this palace, Concubine Li thinks it is really sad.
"Wait for dawn to call Li Long into the palace, there is something to be handled by Li Long in this palace."
What can be trusted at the moment is the group of teams outside the palace, plus this Li Long.
There was nothing to do in this palace all day, and Concubine Li wanted to attract the emperor's attention through these actions, and found that she was a good material to negotiate.
At present, the treasury is tight, that is the words of Prince Ji, and the emperor must be aware of all this, but he did not say it thoroughly.
First of all, we must leave a good impression on those people, this day is getting colder and colder, if you can take out some silver or coal for these people to spend the cold winter, the son of one day and the concubines in this palace can also be exchanged for a good praise from the people.
I haven't seen King Zhenbei recently, and I heard that for the sake of the palace, her brows are locked all day long, and Concubine Li plans to ask King Zhenbei to have a drink.
At dawn, the people arranged by Concubine Li went to invite Li Long and the king of Zhenbei.
These two people are now working together, and both of them are confused when they learn about this matter, and the cooperation is so low-key, Concubine Li can also know.
"Do we want to go, I think this meal is uncomfortable, and it's even more sad not to drink, we have fallen into a trap."
Concubine Li has already asked the most powerful cadres beside her to come over and invite the prince and Li Long, this is to offend people to death if they don't go.
"It's just a drink, Concubine Li can't do anything to hurt others and herself, and the emperor can't explain my mouth to the emperor, and there is still a little thin face in the emperor."
When it comes to those contributions in the past, the king of Zhenbei doesn't have to talk about it, and the emperor and the ministers in the court must have memories in their minds.
Concubine Li means to put these two people together to see if they can face some problems together, so that you will have two more people who can help at critical moments.
It's a pity that the king of Zhenbei has always been high-minded, thinking that he has some credit, and he has always looked down on these juniors.
Concubine Li is ready, King Zhenbei will not go to the appointment, after all, someone like that will definitely talk about it with his beard pulled.
Concubine Li made two preparations, launched the first plan, King Zhenbei and Li Long came together, which really made Concubine Li's eyes shine.
"Why did Concubine Li summon the grass people?"
Concubine Li thought in her heart: This Li Long is pretending to be presentable.
"It's a coincidence, Hongu didn't expect the two of you to come at the same time."
King Zhenbei and Li Long stood far away, pretending not to know each other.
"This palace has its own forces, and this palace must make itself better, and a few people must be cultivated."
King Zhenbei didn't want to be Concubine Li's tool, but he had already reached a cooperation with Li Long, which was interlocking, and King Zhenbei was afraid that he wouldn't be able to escape.
