Concubine Xian has been paying attention to the situation on the queen's side, she learned that the queen's condition has improved relatively quickly, and she has been able to get out of bed and walk, Concubine Xian is very anxious, she knows that the reason why the queen's condition can improve is due to Concubine De, after Concubine De came out of the laundry room, she is stepping towards success.

Concubine De's regaining her freedom and Empress Dowager He's approval made Concubine Xian very jealous, and Concubine Xian knew that if she did not take measures to curb the momentum of Concubine De's development, if she continued like this, Concubine De would take the throne of the imperial concubine, and she would completely lose her power and status in the harem in the near future under the exclusion of the empress and the imperial concubine.

In the field of vision of the virtuous concubines, the battle of the harem concubines has always been a matter of life and death, and if you win, you can stand tall, and those who lose will be swept away or even die.

The more Concubine Xian thought about it, the more she felt that the crisis had rushed towards her, she couldn't wait any longer, she decided to act immediately, she adopted Shen Deyi's Jianyì, hurried to the Queen Mother's bedroom, and asked to see the Queen Mother, after the eunuch reported to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother let her in.

"The queen mother is above, the concubine kowtows to you to say hello!" As soon as the virtuous concubine entered the door, she hurriedly knelt down to the queen mother to greet her!

"Hurry up, you haven't been here for a long time, get up and talk, don't be so polite!" The Queen Mother said.

"Thank you Queen Mother, the concubine misses you very much, but I am worried that the Queen Mother is too busy, there are too many things to worry about, I dare not come to disturb you, the concubine thinks, the Queen Mother's illness has bothered you enough, and the concubine does not dare to bother you anymore, but the concubine is worried that the Queen Mother is too busy, so she can't help but come to see you. I want to say hello to you and make you happier!" Concubine Xian said respectfully.

"Or Concubine De knows that she is worried about the mourning family, listening to you, her heart is comfortable, these days, the mourning family is not so boring, the mood is better, the queen's condition has improved greatly, the emperor sent someone to say, the queen has been able to get out of bed and walk a few steps. It's great. The mourning family knew that the queen was healthy enough to walk, and they were happy. The Queen Mother said.

"Queen Mother, it seems that Concubine De is still quite capable, she really cured the Queen Mother's illness. It is precisely because of the Queen Mother's magnanimity. Only then was he willing to release Concubine De to treat the queen's illness. It was your clever act that saved the queen and the concubine, and they should all be grateful to you. Especially Concubine De, she has received a great favor from you, and she should do her best to repay it, so it is also appropriate for her to do her best to treat the queen's illness. Concubine Xian said.

"Concubine De still has some skills in medical skills, several generations of imperial doctors in her family, she has studied medicine since she was a child, and her ancestors have passed down a few secret recipes, she has real skills, and now it seems that Concubine De is more clever than the people in the hospital in terms of medical skills, and when she cures the queen's illness, the mourning family must reward her well. The Queen Mother said.

When Concubine Xian heard this, her heart tightened, and she thought: "This fox spirit really has the means, and it really makes the Queen Mother value her more and more, I must cleverly belittle her, and I can't let her become more and more colorful in front of the Queen Mother." ”

Concubine Xian stretched out her hands, clenched her fists lightly, and gently pounded the Queen Mother's legs with both hands, while saying: " Concubine De is very capable, but also very shrewd, she came out of the laundry room with the help of the queen's treatment, this is very smart, she knows that the queen mother is open-minded and tolerant, and will not care about her, so she put forward a request for the queen's treatment, she knows that you will definitely agree, she is very shrewd in this request, and then, she cured the queen's illness, and will get along well with the queen, and the emperor will also look at her differently, so that Concubine De will be more popular in the harem, according to the concubine's guess, after Concubine De cures the queen's illness, she will definitely wait for the opportunity to propose to the emperor to be promoted to the imperial concubine, the queen mother, you look at it, it won't take long, she will definitely instigate the emperor to come up and ask you to make her the imperial concubine, and if she is promoted to the imperial concubine, and the relationship with the queen is very close, and she has been favored by the emperor, then, many things in the harem will be handled by her to assist the queen, and the queen will be much easier, at that time, the queen mother will have more free time, and Concubine De is indeed very capable!"

When the queen mother heard this, she became vigilant, and she thought to herself: "Concubine Xian's analysis is very reasonable, Concubine De is not a simple woman. Calm and kind, but, this time, she can skillfully propose to treat the queen, successfully free herself from the laundry room, and continue to gain the trust of the queen, which is very capable, and the emperor is very fond of her, often listen to her, and she has very good medical skills, it will not be long before her status in the inner palace will be higher and higher, if she joins forces with the queen to control the affairs of the harem, then, the mourning family will lose all power in the harem, and at that time, the mourning family may not even listen to what they say, no, you can't let this shrewd woman play freely in the harem, she must be restricted, otherwise, It will be difficult to suppress her, and on the day when the mourning family drives the crane west, maybe even the emperor and queen will not be able to restrain her, and at that time, the stability of the ancestors will be threatened, and when the mourning family is alive, she cannot be unscrupulous. ”

Of course, the queen mother also knew very well in her heart that what Concubine Xian said just now was ostensibly praising Concubine De, but in fact she was exaggerating Concubine De's shrewdness and power, and Concubine Xian's purpose was to remind the Queen Mother that Concubine De was very scheming and ambitious.

The Queen Mother has been in the harem for nearly forty years, of course she knows the complexity of the harem, she knows that the harem concubines have always been jealous of each other, in order to calm the contradictions, the Queen Mother said to the virtuous concubine: " Don't praise Concubine De too much, she just knows a little bit about medical skills, she is good to the queen, she is usually gentle and elegant, she is more liked by the emperor, she is not as powerful as you think, if she has a non-point thought, it is that she is not interesting, and when the queen is well, the queen can naturally manage the inner palace well, the queen is smart and capable, she does not need assistance, what you said the mourning family understands in her heart, you don't think too much, on weekdays, you come to accompany the mourning family to talk, this is the most important thing, and it is also the happiest thing for the mourning family!"

"The concubine understands, there is the queen mother in charge of the harem, and it will be very smooth, with you supporting the queen to manage the inner palace behind her back, she will definitely be able to manage it lightly and easily, and Concubine De can't help. As long as the Queen Mother is happy, the concubines will often come to talk to the Queen Mother, so that you will be happier in your heart, so that the Queen Mother can live to be a thousand years old!"

"Your little mouth is just going to say, every time you say it makes the mourning family happy, you go to see the queen for the mourning family in the past two days, see how good her condition is, and by the way, also pass the word to Concubine De for the mourning family. said that the mourning family was very satisfied with her meticulous treatment of the queen. Let her be sure to cure the queen's illness. The Queen Mother said.

Concubine Xian knew that the Queen Mother was a little tired, and it was time for her to leave, she said: "The Queen Mother has a good rest." The concubine took her leave. Tomorrow. The concubine went to see the queen at your behest and sent the edict to the concubine. ”

Bidding farewell to the Queen Mother, Concubine Xian was very happy. She decisively entered the queen mother's bedroom today, and skillfully said everything that should be said to the queen mother, from the queen mother's expression and the tone of her later speech, Concubine Xian already knew that her goal had been achieved, and she believed that after the queen mother listened to her words, she would definitely start to be disgusted with Concubine De and begin to be defensive.

With the queen mother's decree, Concubine Xian was even more unwilling to be calm, the next day, she arrived at the queen's bedroom early, she asked Eunuch Wu to tell the queen that the queen mother entrusted her to come to see the queen, and after the eunuch reported, she came out to welcome Concubine Xian.

When Concubine De heard that Concubine Xian was coming, she hurried to the door of the queen's bedroom to greet her, and as soon as she saw Concubine Xian, she said politely: "Sister greets Concubine Xian, please give you peace!"

"Sister doesn't need to be so polite, between our sisters, we don't need so many courtesies, quickly lead my sister to meet the queen!" Concubine Xian said kindly.

The two sisters walked into the queen's bedroom, the queen said that she wanted to get up, and Concubine De said: "The queen's body is still very weak, you don't have to get up, Sister Xian will understand." ”

"Sister Concubine De is right, it is important for the queen mother to take care of her body, you don't have to get up, my sister is at the order of the queen mother to see the queen, the queen mother asked: 'What state is the queen in good condition?' The queen mother is very concerned about the queen's condition, and hopes that the queen mother can recover as soon as possible, and do her best to help the queen mother manage the inner palace. Concubine Xian conveyed the Queen Mother's decree very vigorously.

When the queen heard that Concubine Xian said that she was here to convey the Empress Dowager's decree, she hurriedly asked the palace maid to help her up, she got out of bed and bowed and said: "Welcome to the Empress Dowager's decree, please Sister Xian to tell the queen mother, the condition of the son has improved greatly, thank you for the queen mother's concern!"

Concubine Xian walked over, affectionately helped the queen and said: "Sister must tell the queen mother, in fact, my sister has always been worried about the queen's illness, and I want to come to see you, but I am afraid of making a noise with you, and I am afraid that it will affect the sister of Concubine De to treat you, so I have not dared to come to see you, please forgive the queen!"

"Where to say, between our sisters, there is no need to say polite words, this time, if it weren't for Concubine De's sister carefully treating the palace, the palace would never be able to get out of bed, you two good sisters are very concerned about the palace, which makes the palace happy!" said the queen.

"By the way, the queen mother said that the queen sister of Concubine De, in fact, the queen mother also has a decree for the sister of Concubine De, the queen mother said that her old man is very satisfied with Concubine De's meticulous treatment of the queen's illness, so that Concubine De must cure the queen's illness!"

When Concubine De heard that the Queen Mother had a decree, she hurriedly knelt down to receive the decree and said respectfully: "Thank you for the praise of the Queen Mother, the concubine should do her best to treat the queen, and the concubine must live up to the high expectations of the Queen Mother, and do her best to let the queen recover, and the concubine will accompany the queen and the sister of the virtuous concubine to greet the queen mother as soon as possible!"

Concubine Xian walked over, took Concubine De up, and said cordially: "Sister Concubine De, everyone knows that you have excellent medical skills, you He family has a secret recipe, and you will definitely be able to cure the queen's illness as much as possible, even the queen mother has been praising you, you have made a great contribution this time, this is also the queen's blessing, the queen mother has an open mind, so you have your current success!"

Concubine De heard what Concubine Xian said, she felt very unhappy, she thought: "You are conspiring to harm me behind your back, but in front of me, you are very sensual and fake to show kindness, and you also annoyingly suppress me to praise the Queen Mother and the Queen, you dare to be so blatant in front of the Queen Mother and me, behind your back, you don't know how many bad things you have said about me to the Queen Mother." ”

Indeed, Concubine Xian hid a knife in her smile, not only Concubine De could see it, but also the queen was clear in her heart. (To be continued......)
