Chapter 107. Interference in politics
"The posthumous title of this noble concubine is really inappropriate, the biological mother of the prince in the palace has not yet been crowned as a noble concubine, how can it be her turn to be a person who was rejected by the first emperor?" Zhen Huan is still gushing, "If you really agree to what Prince Dun said, then the kings and the harem concubines will have a gap in their hearts, and the emperor will also lose the hearts of the people, and the former dynasty and the harem will be unstable, but if you don't allow it, Prince Dun will definitely hold a grudge, and all the previous appeasements will be in vain." ”
An Lingrong looked up at Zhen Huan suddenly, and an almost ridiculous answer was in her mind - the idea of giving Prince Fengdun a son and a daughter wouldn't be Zhen Huan's idea, right?
At the same time, she was also shocked. It turned out that Zhen Huan's interference in politics had reached such a point, and the emperor was still indifferent, was it too tolerant of Zhen Huan, or something else? An Lingrong couldn't figure it out, let alone think about it.
She stood silently aside.
"Nian Qianyao's remnants have not been cleared yet, and if he is moved at this time, there is only a forty percent chance of winning for a while." The emperor sank his face, "Nian Qianyao tried step by step earlier, approached and colluded with Prince Dun, and the two were very close. Now that this year, Qianyao has surrendered to the law, but his power has been transferred to Prince Dun somehow. ”
Zhen Huan stood beside the emperor with her hands down, and said slowly: "The concubine is in the harem, if the affairs of the previous dynasty are not related to the emperor, the concubine does not dare to involve it, the concubine only knows that she has a relationship with the emperor, but she doesn't know that the emperor also has the emperor's helplessness." ”
"The emperor and the generals, the concubines and concubines, who is not living in their own helplessness, each has its own constraints." The emperor's voice was low, revealing a little frustration.
"That's a long-term plan, and the emperor can only endure it." Zhen Huan raised her eyes to look at the emperor.
The emperor closed his eyes vigorously: "I, the emperor, have done too much." ”
An Lingrong stepped aside and concentrated on making tea, not listening or looking, just as if she didn't know at all, but Zhen Huan's words had already entered her ears, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Zhen Huan used the name of caring about the emperor to cover up the past and the present, and it is an undoubted fact that he is doing politics.
"Please follow what Prince Dun said, and posthumously crown Concubine Wen as your concubine."
"Smack!"
The sound of porcelain landing exploded like thunder, An Lingrong's hand shook, and he almost smashed the teapot in his hand, looking back, he saw Zhen Huan taking two steps forward, and continued: "Please posthumously crown Concubine Wen as a concubine, give her a title, and move her to the mausoleum of the first emperor's concubine, and at the same time seal all the concubines in the palace and give them honorific titles, especially Concubine Shouqi is the head of all the concubines, and the queen mother should be honored to show the emperor's filial piety." She took the new teacup handed over by An Lingrong and sent it to the emperor.
The emperor took a sip and was silent for a long time before saying: "Yes, he wants to posthumously seal his biological mother, and I will pray for the queen mother in the name of well-being, and give all the concubines honorific titles." The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was a good idea, and the emperor slowly smiled, "In this way, there is no objection from the front and back harems." ”
Zhen Huan immediately answered: "In this way, not only will the official not have any discussions, but the princess and concubine in the palace will also feel the emperor's kindness." It's just that King Guojun's biological mother, Concubine Shu, has already become a monk, how will the emperor settle it? ”
"Old Seventeen won't care about that." The emperor said casually.
"Although King Guojun won't care, I'm afraid that some villains will speculate that the emperor despises King Guojun, so it's better to ask the emperor to be interested in King Guojun." Zhen Huanfu said again.
The emperor stretched his eyebrows and said: "This is not difficult to do, Concubine Shu has become a monk, and it is not appropriate to add the honorific title, so I will respect Concubine Shu as the master of Chongjing." ”
"In that case, there is nothing wrong with that." Zhen Huan smiled and clapped her hands.
The emperor looked at Zhen Huan and muttered: "You are worthy of being my interpreter flower, and you can pay attention to everything for me." ”
Zhen Huan lowered her eyebrows and smiled lightly, suddenly remembered that An Lingrong was still by her side, and hurriedly said: "The emperor works hard for the world, and the concubines don't understand the government, so they can only pay attention to the emperor in these small things." She looked at An Lingrong, "The concubine said to herself, but she forgot that Rong'er was also there, why didn't she say a word?" ”
"The concubine can't understand this, so she can only sit and drink tea honestly." An Lingrong raised the teacup in his hand and said with a smile, "I knew that my sister could relieve the emperor's worries, so the concubine didn't follow me." Her eyes lit up and she smiled.
"You are the most gentle and meticulous, even if you don't speak, it's good to stay by my side." The emperor raised his hand at her and motioned for her to step forward, "I feel that my body is very sore, you rub it for me a few times." ”
Zhen Huan said with a smile on the side: "Rong'er's hands are eighteen kinds of martial arts, and she is proficient in everything, and the concubines don't know what she can't." ”
"It's just small." An Lingrong took off his armor, walked behind the emperor, touched a few acupuncture points, and kneaded them with moderate strength, "Sister Guan shares worries and solves problems for the emperor, and does not worry about the affairs of the previous dynasty, the concubines can only take care of the emperor's daily life with all their hearts, and I wish the emperor a healthy body." ”
The emperor stretched his body comfortably, and the sore tingling and itching spread out inch by inch, only to feel that the senses of the whole body were gathered between square inches, comfortable and refreshing.
An Lingrong pressed and quietly looked up at Zhen Huan who was sitting on the side, his eyes were full of melancholy.
"My sister has become a normal thing now to enter and leave the Heart Nourishing Palace, even the emperor is angry, and Father-in-law Su asks people to look for my sister as soon as possible, didn't my sister notice that something was wrong?" Back to Broken Yuxuan, An Lingrong talked to Zhen Huan about the matter, "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and my sister should avoid suspicion, how can she talk about it and gradually fall into it?" ”
"The emperor and I are just talking about family matters." Zhen Huan's hand moved slightly, and pretended to smile easily.
"Whether it's a family affair or a state affair, my sister knows better than me, doesn't she?" An Lingrong immediately pierced Zhen Huan's disguise, "Prince Dun's request for the seal is a political affair of the previous dynasty, no matter how much my sister hides it with words, no matter how much she cites scriptures, she can't get rid of the fact of interfering in politics!" ”
Zhen Huan pursed the corners of her mouth, and was irrefutable for a while: "The emperor said that I will discuss politics." ”
"So what!" An Lingrong was really anxious at this time, got up and paced anxiously for two steps, "I don't allow you to discuss politics, but in the emperor's thoughts, the emperor is happy, that is, everything is fine, the emperor is unhappy, my sister is the crime of interfering in politics, when the time comes, who will investigate and ask, has the emperor ever allowed you to discuss politics?" ”
The words of the cone, the air in the dormitory froze for a moment, and it was so heavy that it was breathless.
Zhen Huan was silent for a long time before she looked up at An Lingrong, her voice was as cold as ice: "Sister, are you scolding me for this?" There seemed to be a hint of shame in her eyes, "I don't know when I got worse and worse with my sister, obviously at the beginning, the emperor favored me more, but gradually, I felt more and more powerless." I obviously love the emperor deeply, but I always feel farther and farther away from him, only when I talk about the affairs of the court, I feel closer to each other, and more often, I feel that the emperor is looking at another person through me. She got up and walked two steps, looking back at An Lingrong, "Rong'er, can you understand that feeling?" The person you love is close in front of you, but it seems to be far away in the sky, obviously the body is so close, but you feel that the two hearts are far apart. ”
Zhen Huan approached An Lingrong step by step, revealing a somewhat sad smile: "After Nian Shilan's death, I always have palpitations, sometimes I talk to the emperor well, her face flashes in front of me, I am afraid that I will end up like her, so I want to be favored more and more, but Rong'er, you are so easy." She smiled softly and bitterly, "You are loveless and light, and you don't know all the thoughts of my love for the emperor." You are the emperor's gentle township, I will be the emperor's interpretation flower, so that the two are fine, and I can do nothing. Her face changed slightly, "But today you reprimanded me for interfering in politics!" ”
"Sister, I'm not reprimanding, but worried!" An Lingrong hurriedly explained, she didn't expect that the emperor's deep affection for her would affect Zhen Huan, obviously in her previous life, Zhen Huan was favored by the emperor alone, and she didn't expect Zhen Huan in this life to be so keenly aware of the fact that she was a stand-in, she secretly pinched a sweat, "Since ancient times, the emperor's heart is unpredictable, and my sister is erudite, so she naturally understands this truth better than me." Today is grace, tomorrow is punishment, Uncle Zhen has just made a meritorious contribution and is in a high position, and my sister should be more cautious in her words and deeds, otherwise I am afraid that the Zhen family will be implicated in the future. ”
"In ancient times, Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty favored Zhao Hede, and regarded his crisp chest as a gentle township, lingering, and now there is a beautiful and moving sister, and he is also the emperor's gentle township." Zhen Huan's eyes cooled slightly, "My sister reminded me not to interfere in politics, and I also want to remind my sister to cherish yourself, don't be the demon concubine who has brought disaster to the country." ”
An Lingrong was stunned in place, opened his mouth several times and couldn't speak, and it took a while to find his voice, and he said almost tremblingly: "Sister, is that how you look at me?" ”
A sharp pain pierced An Lingrong's chest, so painful that she almost couldn't breathe, and even her breathing was painful: "My sister and I delivered my sincerity, so I persuaded each other bitterly, does my sister actually think that I am hindering my sister from being favored by the emperor?" She unconsciously shed tears, it turned out that unconsciously, she already had such deep feelings for Zhen Huan, so she was so sad to hear such words now, "I said, I don't care about the emperor's favor, I only care about my sister's ......"
"My sister doesn't care, but the emperor does." Zhen Huan also had tears in her eyes, she bit her lip hard, as if she didn't want to admit it, "The emperor values her sister very much, doesn't her sister know it?" Everyone says that the emperor's favorite person is me, but I can see clearly, when the emperor talks about his sister, his eyes always unconsciously show a warm smile, which is completely different from the emperor I know, it is a kind of softness and warmth that falls into the mortal dust. She closed her eyes and tears fell, "Rong'er, I'm very jealous of you, what you scorn and disdain, is something I have always been out of reach." ”
An Lingrong and Zhen Huan looked at each other with tears in their eyes, and countless words couldn't be spit out in their throats. She can keep her heart, but she can't predict the emperor's love, Zhen Huan confronts her like this, she has nothing to say.
"Sister, I'm sorry......" An Lingrong lowered his eyes and whispered, tears falling uncontrollably.
She seems to be no longer commensurate with Sister Zhen Huan. The emperor's love is like a moat between them, which cannot be crossed.
"Let's go." Zhen Huan wiped her tears, turned her head and stopped looking at her.
An Lingrong took a deep breath and said tremblingly: "Whether my sister listens to what I say or not, I have to remind my sister not to fall in love with the emperor, if you are obsessed with the emperor's love, you will only make yourself sad in the end." ”
"You said this when you first arrived at Broken Jade Xuan." Zhen Huan raised her hazy teary eyes, her eyes were full of stubbornness, "But I don't believe it, I use all my sincerity to bet on the emperor's true feelings for me." She raised a confident smile, "Sister Rong, let's look back, this game, I must win." ”
An Lingrong tightened her heart, almost suffocating, turned around and left Broken Yuxuan suddenly, and when she was about to go out, she turned back and shouted in a panic: "Sister, every word I say is for you......" She choked up and couldn't say a word.
Dill and Cardamom looked at each other, all of them were puzzled, but they could only follow the master and leave the broken jade xuan together.
Broken Yuxuan, who was still laughing and laughing in the previous second, fell silent in an instant, and the snow on the branches bent the branches, and fell to the ground with a heavy muffled sound, smashing into everyone's hearts.
"Oh? Quarreled? The queen looked surprised when she got the news, "Okay, how can these two quarrel?" ”
Qi Guiren told the queen everything he heard, and finally said: "The quarrel is quite fierce, and Concubine Rong cried so much that she couldn't even say everything when she left." ”
"Concubine Rong is a good word, if Concubine Wan really listens to her words and wakes up from love, it will be really difficult to deal with." The queen took a sip of tea in a good mood, "These two people have been holding together tightly from the beginning, and they can't be separated, but today is an unexpected joy." Now, Guan Concubine's father's official residence is from the first grade, although Rong Concubine's father is still only from the fifth grade, but when it comes to salt affairs, I am afraid that there will be a promotion, if these two people have been so good, the palace will have a headache. She put down the teacup and turned her head to look at Jian Qiu, "Go and tell the people below, don't let Concubine Hui be idle, let her be busy, lest she go to persuade Concubine Wan and Concubine Rong to reconcile." ”
"Yes." Jian Qiu leaned over and answered.
The queen looked at the noble Qi again: "Let you pay attention to Concubine Guan's father, catch more of his mistakes, and wait for the opportunity." ”
"Yes." Qi Guiren smiled and bowed.
Zhen Huan didn't know that the sword in the queen's hand, which was originally aimed at Nian Shilan, had slowly turned towards her, and a web of conspiracy against her had quietly begun to weave.
