Chapter 104: Exploitation

Liufu. Fuyao Temple.

Fang Yan'er was half-leaning on the bed, with a soft pillow behind her waist.

She covered her belly with both hands, and said with a smile to the old woman sitting at the table not far away: "Mama, you don't know, the courtier's appearance has been a little unstable recently, and the doctor suggests that the courtier's wife should be allowed to recuperate, and it is not appropriate to worry too much."

Although the courtiers also want to share the queen's worries, they are really powerless now. ”

She had a smile on her face, but her eyelashes drooped but the cold light in her eyes was obscured.

The reason why her fake pregnancy was exposed before was that in addition to Liu Zhan's suspicions, it was also indispensable for the queen to cross the river and tear down the bridge, and she would not save her when she saw death.

And now the old lady will come to the door, because soon the emperor will patrol the royal car and comfort the soldiers on the border.

Now that the country is in a prosperous era of smooth wind and rain, rich country and strong people, the emperor also wants to use this opportunity to show his generation of bright monarchs, sympathize with all the people in the world, and never forget the sacrifice and dedication of the soldiers.

To put it bluntly, it's just an opportunity to establish a personality and gain a reputation.

Although the queen is still claustrophobic in her bedroom, she has always worried that the crown prince's position may be unstable.

So I wanted to take the opportunity of the emperor's border patrol to see if I could persuade him to take the crown prince as his temporary replacement.

Otherwise, it is also a way to redeem the Sacred Heart by allowing the prince to accompany the emperor and show his filial piety on the grounds of sympathy for the suffering of all the people.

The queen asked the old lady to find Fang Yan'er, just to let her blow the pillow wind for Liu Zhan.

Unite a group of ministers to make suggestions to the emperor and help the crown prince.

The old lady listened to Fang Yan'er's words and scolded: "Aunt Fang, you are a little young concubine, and you dare to disobey the words of the queen's mother?" What kind of lip service are you playing, can't you hear it when you look at others? ”

Fang Yan'er's face turned pale, and she seemed to want to get up and get out of bed.

But when he moved slightly, a painful look immediately appeared on his face.

"Mama, you misunderstood me. The last time the concubine's fake pregnancy was exposed by the minister, he was so angry that he almost beat the concubine to death. If it weren't for the discovery that the concubine was really pregnant, I'm afraid the grass on the tomb would have grown by now.

At that time, the concubine was the first to ask the queen for help, but it was a pity that ...... The queen said at the time that she had no time to take care of her concubines.

Mama, you said, if I hadn't had that unwarranted disaster at that time, and I hadn't received the fright and moved the fetus, would I not need to be in bed to recuperate now, and I could do a good job for the queen? ”

The old lady was speechless when she said this.

After all, this matter is indeed the queen's not authentic first.

They both knew that the queen felt that Fang Yan'er was not of much use, so she treated her as an outcast.

But who would have thought that the emperor would suddenly go to patrol the border, and he also moved his mind to promote Liu Zhan.

Fang Yan'er saw that the old lady's eyes were flickering, she was silent for a long time, and hooked her lips slightly.

"Mama, as a courtier, you should be loyal to the king, this is a little truth, although the concubine is a woman, she still knows it.

Being able to do things for the queen is also a blessing for the concubines. It's just that the concubines are now lowly and are mostly constrained by their status. Moreover, when I thought that in the future, the son of the concubine could only be the eldest son, my heart was filled with sadness.

I'm depressed, it's hard to sleep, so naturally I can't stabilize my body as soon as possible and go to do things for my mother......"

The old lady snorted coldly: "Aunt Fang, if you say, the old body will bring it." I just want to advise you, don't be greedy and swallow elephants! lest it be backfired! ”

She brushed her sleeves and left.

Fang Yan'er stared at her back, smiling.

"Whether I'm going to be attacked or not, you don't have to worry about it. In the future, when my mother ceremonies the world, she will remember to press a few pieces of yellow paper on your grave. ”

The words that Fang Yan'er said to the old grandmother soon reached the queen's ears.

She angrily smashed a teacup and shouted angrily: "What an arrogant and domineering! How dare you instruct this palace to do something for her?

No, not only the command, but also the threat! Did she look at the palace and there was no one available except her? ”

The old lady asked the maid to clean up the residue of the teacup, and she stepped forward to persuade: "Don't be angry, that Fang Yan'er dares to do this to you, I'm afraid I heard some rumors."

Liu Zhan has been in a strong position recently, and the ministers of the court and the central government are all discussing it, and His Majesty seems to want to reuse him, and he is considering the matter of promotion.

How could Fang Yan'er be willing to condescend to be a concubine, not to mention that she was sure that she was pregnant with a son. Whether it is the fate or the identity of the son-in-law, she can't let it go.

So now, relying on this identity, I will talk to you about this deal with the queen. ”

"So what?"

The queen pinched her eyebrows impatiently.

She has been having a hard time lately, and she hasn't seen the emperor for a long time since she was claustrophobic in the palace.

The only good news is that her nemesis, the concubine, was also grounded because of Princess Minglai's refusal to marry, and she also never saw the emperor.

But the concubine can afford it, but she, the queen, can't afford it.

The emperor is partial to Lao Jiu, but he is extremely cold to the real prince.

Seeing that the prince's position is unstable, the court is already surging, and they have secretly made calculations.

These things all made the queen worried.

"Mama, you should know that the prince's situation is not good now. How can I have time to care about her Fang Yan'er's affairs! If she is willing to dream, let her dream! Hongu is too lazy to pay attention! ”

The old lady sighed, knowing that the queen was worried about the prince, and her mind was a little confused for the time being, so she could only rely on herself to help her figure it out.

"Niangniang, you should listen to the old slave tell you."

"You also said just now, Liu Zhan is in the Holy Grace first. Since His Majesty wants to reuse him, he should want to check and balance the relationship between the court, and according to the old slave, Liu Zhan's current Qingyun Road may not stop here. ”

The queen is also a noble daughter from a famous family, but she is temporarily upset and distracted.

Hearing Mama say this, her eyes gradually became clear.

"You mean, that Liu Zhan...... Will you climb even higher? ”

Mama bowed her head and was silent, everything was silent.

"That'...... That's good. According to what you said, Fang Yan'er's chess piece not only can't be lost, but also helps her go higher. In this way, she will have weight in her words and will be able to help me do things better. ”

As soon as the queen finished speaking, she shook her head again and again to deny her words.

"That's not right! At the Queen Mother's birthday banquet before, Fang Yan'er wanted to take advantage of the chaos to kill the young daughter of the Fang family, which was seen by the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and their families.

Although she was quibbling at the time and was a ghost for a while, no one was a fool, and her heart was like a mirror. If I come forward again and openly help her raise her identity, won't I push Qiao Xiang to our opposite? ”

The queen only felt that she was in a dilemma, and when she was entangled, she heard someone come to report.

"Qi Yu Niangniang, Uncle Guo asks to see me."
