Qiu also heard that those who have a country and a family do not suffer from widowhood but inequality, and do not suffer from poverty but suffer from anxiety. There is no poverty, no widowhood, and no inclination. If the husband is like this, so people from afar are not satisfied, and they will repair Wende. If it comes, it will be safe. Now you are asking for it, and you are a master, and people from afar are not convinced, and you can't come; The state is torn apart, and it cannot be defended: and it plots to fight in the state. I am afraid that Ji Sun's worries are not in the moment, but within the Xiao wall.

It is said that the Houmen is as deep as the sea, and this harem is even more so. Although there are no other concubines competing for favor, on the one hand, there is a little emperor who is only thirteen years old, on the other hand, there is a queen mother who has gone through three dynasties, and there is a father who restricts the little emperor everywhere outside the court.

When she first entered the palace, Yeyan didn't quite understand that the emperor was the husband of the eldest lady, the empress dowager was the aunt and grandmother of the eldest lady, and the powerful An Han Gong was the father of the eldest lady, so what else did the eldest lady have to worry about. It wasn't until he saw Emperor Ping's attitude towards the eldest lady on the wedding night that he realized that Emperor Ping had vented all his anger against An Hangong on the eldest lady. Except for the wedding night, Emperor Ping was a little dependent and intimate with the eldest lady, but after the morning class the next day, he resumed his indifference to the eldest lady, and drove the newlywed queen to the Changqiu Palace, and was served by the aunt to sleep in the Weiyang Palace for several days.

After breakfast today, Wang Yan took Yeyan to greet the Empress Dowager. When she was about to enter the palace gate, Yeyan couldn't help but say: "Miss, I still don't think I should tell the Empress Dowager about this, in case the Empress Dowager gets angry, it will be on you." ”

Wang Yan sighed helplessly: "You have seen what my situation is, since I have married Your Majesty, I am one with Your Majesty, I can't let others say that the queen of the Han Dynasty and the emperor are not of the same mind." Besides, Your Majesty is also quite difficult. ”

"But it's also difficult for the eldest lady." Yeyan muttered quietly, Wang Yan paused, pretended not to hear, and stepped into Changle Palace.

"The concubine visits the Empress Dowager."

"My granddaughter-in-law is here, come and come, come and sit here." Wang Zhengjun looked obviously happy, beckoned Wang Yan to sit beside him, Wang Yan got up, and saw a graceful and noble woman kneeling beside him, who looked to be about fifty years old, and asked, "Who is this?" ”

At this time, the old woman had already stood up and bowed slightly to Wang Yan, who was a little confused and didn't know how to return the salute.

"Okay, you two don't push and push, I will introduce, Queen, this is Princess Jingwu, my sister-in-law, and my aunt and grandmother."

Wang Yan suddenly remembered that this eldest princess was not a simple person. She was the favorite daughter of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, and was canonized as the county lord before she was twelve years old, and later changed to a princess. Because of many dynasties, in order to distinguish her from the princess of the junior, everyone privately called her the eldest princess, but she didn't expect it to slowly become popular, and she was also happy to accept this title. Princess Jingwu married a total of three husbands in her life: Zhang Lin, Marquis of Fuping, Zhao Qin, Marquis of Linping, and Xue Xuan, Marquis of Gaoyang. I heard that a few years ago, because of sympathy for Emperor Wai's mother Ding Ji, her father also impeached her husband Xue Xuan from the throne of prime minister under the pretext of punishment by his father. It is said that she is from the Empress Dowager Ding Jifu's side, why did she come to the Empress Dowager's side today to say goodbye?

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and sat down under the arrangement of the Empress Dowager. Princess Jingwu asked people to bring in a small box, and said to Wang Zhengjun with a smile: "Since I heard that Yan'er was made the queen, I have been happy for several days, and I have been looking for a day at home, and finally found a pearl offered by Hepu, the size of a woman's fist, crystal clear, specially brought today, I thought about going to the Changqiu Palace to give us the queen for a while, but I didn't think about it, I haven't moved, people came first, just through the eyes of the queen mother, give the sister a look, this bead can still be in the eye." As he spoke, he took out an egg-sized pearl from the box.

Wang Zhengjun took the beads, glanced at the bright part of the pane, and said with a smile: "You are really willing, the two of us have known each other for half a lifetime, and I have never seen you give me such a valuable thing, but today I am eccentric, saying, but what is the attempt, I tell you, you are not allowed to make some small means to bully our concubine, she has just become a queen, but she can't fight you old foxes, haha!" ”

"Where does the Empress Dowager speak, isn't this a little bit of heart as an elder." As he spoke, he took the pearl from Wang Zhengjun and handed it to Wang Yan.

Wang Yan took it with some surprise and took a closer look, this is a crystal clear bead, white all over, and there is a cool feeling in her hand, which can be seen that it is not ordinary. hurriedly refused: "The eldest princess's gift is too heavy, I can't afford it, and I ask the eldest princess to take it back." ”

Princess Jingwu grabbed Wang Yan's hand and pressed her body that just wanted to stand up: "The things I sent out have never been taken back, and they can be regarded as a little bit of my mind, so don't shirk the queen." I've been sitting for a while, so I won't bother the queen to talk to the empress dowager, and I will come to visit the empress dowager again when I have time in the future. The girl retired. After saying that, he saluted Wang Zhengjun and took the maid away.

"This eldest princess, she is still so hot, and it's weird, she never wanted to be close to me before, but today it's a little abnormal. That's it, don't talk about her, Yan'er, is the emperor good to you? ”

The carriage of Princess Jingwu left the Changle Palace, turned around the city, and came to a Taoist temple. The eldest princess got out of the carriage and entered the main hall through the side door under the guidance of the little Taoist priest.

There were two people sitting in the quiet room, one was Wei Ji's niece Wei Nanzhu, and the other was Wang Yu's wife Lu Yan. When the two saw the eldest princess coming in, they stood up together and saluted, and the eldest princess helped them up in two steps: "Don't be polite, it's all within my responsibility." Princess, you are heavy, don't make such a big gift, let's sit down and say. ”

The three of them sat down, and the little Taoist priest went out with fragrant tea, and the eldest princess spoke: "I know, now only I am qualified to enter and leave the harem." I will do my best to do what you entrust, not to mention that I am a world friend with Nanzhu's aunt. What I see and hear today seems to be that His Majesty does not trust the Empress very much. I have a few ways to say it to the two of you, and the three of us will go our separate ways and try to get this done. ”

Nan Zhu and Lu Yan nodded.

"Nanzhu, there are many secret agents in the capital, so it is not advisable to stay for a long time. In the afternoon, you will return to Zhongshan and ask your aunt to write a letter to the capital, and hand it directly to me, and I will hand it over to An Hangong, one of them. Shizi Princess, after you go back, ask Shizi to come forward and find a way to persuade An Hangong, even if you can't achieve the result, you have to say a little bit. You are pregnant with Liujia, and you are the eldest grandson of An Han Gong in your belly, even if An Han Gong disagrees, he will not have any thoughts about you. In the next few days, I will find a way to enter the palace again, meet the queen, and let her say a few kind words in front of the empress dowager, and the day when the Empress Dowager Wei and His Majesty will meet is not far away. ”

Nan Zhu and Lu Yan looked at each other, their eyes could not hide their cheerful expressions.
