Chapter 166: Queen Mother
Chen Zhongqing turned around, "Yi'er should not follow others to make fun of it. It is a righteous thing for the wife to save lives and help the wounded..." He saw Zhen Shiniang's persistence and enthusiasm in the face of the injured, Chen Zhongqing admired her from the bottom of her heart, "Yi'er forgot. , You had also wanted to see her for treatment." After a pause, "When I come back from Qi Kingdom, I will take you to my ancestral home and let her see you."
She doesn't care!
When Chu Xinyi heard Chen Zhongqing's comment on Zhen Shiniang with her own ears, she felt that her heart was broken.
"After all, she did something that was unfair and shameful to her ancestors!" Chu Xinyi's voice was a little sharp.
Chen Zhongqing's body stiffened and his expression became cold.
Feeling the air suddenly became cold, Chu Xinyi also found that she had lost her composure. She pursed her lips hard and changed into a pear blossom with rain to look at Chen Zhongqing pitifully.
"...It's too late, Yi'er will go in." Chen Zhongqing turned around and left.
"General..." Chu Xinyi grabbed him, "It was a bad thing just now. I only listened to the general, and I will not listen to others' nonsense again." The topic changed, "The general was beaten up just now." , I'll help you bandage it." After so long the Cold War was stalemate, Chu Xinyi took the initiative to send a signal of peace.
Did Zhen Shiniang enter the mansion or the day Chen Zhongqing was scolded by the old lady in public... Chu Xinyi can no longer remember when it started. Chen Zhongqing never entered the Bizhu Garden again, and suddenly discovered this fact Chu Xinyi felt in panic that Dou Zhen Shiniang was second, and she was mainly repairing her relationship with Shen Zhongqing.
Only by using the skill of using the soft fingers to win over Chen Zhongqing as before can she have the capital to continue fighting with Zhen Shiniang!
Chen Zhongqing is about to leave. If you can no longer have a cold war with him, she must do her best to serve him during these two days, so that he can always remember her tenderness when he is in Qiguo.
The invitation was obvious, and he must have understood it when he was so low.
Chu Xinyi's cheeks were blushing and looking at Chen Zhongqing.
The dark candlelight of the big red lantern at the door reflected on his tough and handsome face, making Chu Xinyi feel strange.
"I have already applied medicine in the palace, and the staff are waiting in the study. I have something to deal with. Yi'er will go back first." His voice was always gentle, but Chen Zhongqing's steps did not have a trace of nostalgia.
Looking at the unruly back that disappeared into the darkness, Chu Xinyi suddenly grabbed the tree trunk beside her.
Five white rafters immediately emerged from the trunk.
...
"...This flower is like a human being." The Empress Dowager sat on the clinical kang and carefully trimmed a pot of phoenix-tail bamboo. "You have to water it frequently and fertilize it... and cut the crooked branches and leaves. Only when you fall off can you bloom lovely flowers." Put down the scissors, hold the flower pot with both hands and look at it left and right.
"If you want to take care of flowers and plants, there is no more patience in this palace than the empress dowager..." The palace maid Biyu smiled, "Even the envoy of Qi State is amazed at the flowers in your garden, and praised them all, especially The pot of orchids and white grass not only had white patterns on the leaves, but also had white patterns on the petals. The envoy of Qi said that it was called the double art of leaves and flowers. He lived so big that he only saw it in Nanyue. After that, I still want to spend a lot of money to ask for it.”
"He dared to send it out." The empress dowager put the flower pot back on the windowsill, "General Chen got back a total of ten plants. The Ai family cultivated it for a year, and at least it only raised one of them..."
"I know it's your favorite." Biyu said pleasingly. "Long live, I didn't dare to agree, and I gave me some gifts to give you five pots and eighteen beautiful girls from the messenger of Qi."
The eunuchs and palace maids in the hall laughed.
Xiangtao, the queen mother's personal official, walked in and saw the lively atmosphere in the hall, and wanted to speak but stopped.
The Queen Mother didn't even raise her eyelids, "...She hasn't left yet?"
"Lanxiang has been kneeling for an afternoon." Xiangtao Fusheng bowed, "I swear to see the Empress Dowager..." Lanxiang is Lanxin's sister. After the banquet, Long live to execute Lanxin, Fubao and others.
When her sister died, Lanxiang kept kneeling at the gate of Cining Palace and begging for the Empress Dowager.
"Their sisters are all loyal." The Queen Mother sighed, "You ask her to go back, the Ai family can't help her."
"Empress Dowager..." Xiangtao looked around hesitantly.
The Queen Mother waved her hand and sent everyone away and looked at Xiangtao.
"Lanxiang sacrificed a jade pendant..." Xiangtao took out a half-moon-shaped jade pendant from her sleeve and put it on it, "You said you had an alliance with Anqing Hou back then, and promised that as long as he sacrificed this jade pendant, you would do it unconditionally
He did one thing..." He looked at the Queen Mother carefully, "Lan Xiang came to ask you to fulfill your promise."
The Queen Mother frowned.
When the Duke of Zhenguo was in power, her daughter, Concubine Xu, dominated the harem and stared at her subordinates. Her life was in danger. In order to borrow the power of Anqing Hou, who was still the young master of the prince, she personally gave the jade pendant and made that promise
.
Slowly rubbing the long-lost jade pendant, it was as gentle as ever, but the mood was different. The Queen Mother sighed quietly, "... He helped the Ai family keep the position of the queen, and the Ai family also keep her daughter as the queen, so
Concubine Zheng favored the harem for many years, and the Ai family did not let her be the queen, which was worthy of the marquis' support from the Marquis back then." Recalling the past, the empress dowager narrowed her eyes slightly, "You go and tell Lanxiang, it's not Ai
The family does not keep their promises. When Ai's family promised, they said that everything they do must be allowed by the ability of the Ai family... If they just killed a few people, the Ai family only thinks she is acting spoiled and arrogant, she can still be long old.
It’s a pity to protect her in front of her…” The Empress Dowager shook her head, “She touched the bottom line of long live, and the Ai family can do nothing.” The sonorous tone was unquestionable.
It’s a joke that I am not a fool. Her father and daughter want to seize the kingdom of their own son. How could she keep promises to protect her again!
Xiangtao shook her head, "Lanxiang said that her master knew that his crime was unforgivable and did not ask for life..."
Don't ask for life?
The empress dowager raised her head, what was she going to do when she sacrificed this jade pendant?
"She wants to ask you to help her kill someone..."
Kill someone?
The empress dowager raised her eyebrows and looked down at the jade pendant in her hand, "Let Lanxiang come in."
...
"Empress Shen specially sent her father-in-law to come to see you, so that you can be happy. Don't be too stubborn and get angry." Shen Zhongxin left, and Biyue told her about the afternoon.
The old lady frowned, "Empress Shen didn't say that the bitch could cure the Seventh Prince?"
"I can't help but say it's a wife..." Zi Yue brought in a bowl of medicine and interrupted after hearing it, "I heard that Doctor Li, who is here to take your pulse today, say that the Seventh Prince is probably helpless."
The old lady snorted coldly.
The eldest aunt Yang Lan and the second aunt Li Caixiang knocked in.
"... After doing such a despicable thing, it has brought shame to our ancestors. Isn't it possible to have a rest?" Yang Lan took the medicine and fed the old lady himself, "If this is true, all women in the world are competing to imitate, and there is still a routine.
Is it?"
The old lady nodded.
This is also the doubt she has always had. That bitch has done such a cruel thing and can't stop, which is really angering her to death.
Li Caixiang picked up a candied fruit and handed it to the old lady, "...I haven't seen you for a few years, and the lady is so embarrassed that she is so embarrassed that she will be sympathetic to her."
The old lady felt a little upset.
"Auntie, stop talking..." Seeing the old lady's face dark, Biyue waved her hands repeatedly, "The general said just now, the lady was left by the Long Live Imperial Imperial. Don't you understand?" Looking at the leaking pot on the desk,
"...It's getting late, so the two concubines should come back soon."
Yang Lan smiled, "That's what she did before, and what she did was not exposed. Now everyone in the capital knows that our general's mansion had come out..." The voice paused, and Yu Guang saw that the veins on the old lady's forehead were bulging again.
, She changed her topic, "Long live, it's time to change her original intention."
"That's it." Li Caixiang echoed, "...you have to try everything before you know if it can be done?"
The old lady turned her head and ordered Biyue, "...go and invite the general over!"
"The old lady must not do it." Yang Lan and Li Caixiang were so scared that they waved their hands repeatedly, "If the general really wanted to part with his wife, how could he rather be beaten or scolded by you?"
Thinking of Shen Zhongqing's stubborn look when he left just now, the old lady grinded her teeth.
"I want my maid to tell you, don't point at the general." Yang Lan took advantage of the situation and said, "The matter on the left and right has spread, so the old lady went directly to the Golden Palace to beat the Dengwen Gu in public, begging Long Live the decision!"
The old lady's heart moved.
Yes, she was given up in public and expressed her position, and at least she could save some face in front of others. However, the old lady frowned again.
I am a woman after all, is this okay?
Will this kind of drumming without hesitation affect my son's future?
"What are you afraid of? You are also the fourth-rank imperial edict given by the emperor!" Seeing the old lady hesitation, Li Caixiang advised, "... Besides, there is Empress Shen."
If Chu Xinyi said this, the old lady might have doubted her purpose, but it would be different if the eldest and second aunts said it.
Yang Lan and Li Caixiang have been obedient in their wife's manner since they entered the door, taking care of their husbands and children wholeheartedly. They took a step back and said that even if Zhen Shiniang is divorced, they will not have the right to take office. For them, who in this family is
It’s the same as being a mistress, and they have no reason to murder anyone.
The reason why they did this is because Zhen Shiniang did something that both man and gods were angry!
I am ashamed of my ancestors, and even the aunt at home is not ashamed of her!
This thought flashed through and a trace of fortitude appeared on the old lady's face.
For that bitch, he dared to disobey the imperial edict in public and ignore the lives of the Shen family. Why should he care about his future?
My glory and wealth were given by Concubine Shen.
That bitch did such a vulgar thing and kept her going. I believe that Concubine Shen can't raise her head in front of Long Live!
...
"... The general's injury recovers so quickly. He will be able to move water in another three to five days." After changing the medicine for Shen Zhongqing, Zhen Shiniang secretly praised his physical strength while serving him to dress. She still said yesterday
It was so heavy that the blood sequins were more than an inch tall, and today it had mostly disappeared and had begun to scab.
If you put it in her, a small hole would be rotten for half a month.
"How is the Seventh Prince?" Yu Guang saw Zhen Shiniang staring at her body and admiring, and the corners of Shen Zhongqing's mouth curled up. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations.
