Probably Qi Wangshu and the others didn't know how Concubine Shen made Su Shangqing unhappy in the Imperial Garden before she came.

"Concubine Shu is arrogant and domineering in the palace. She relies on the emperor's favor and becomes arrogant. Even the middle palace doesn't look down on her." Shen Shu said slowly, "If you don't discipline her, I think this country girl will go to heaven."

Qi Wangshu, Mrs. Qin and Qin Ruilan looked at each other. He was not familiar with Concubine Shen in the past. When she was a concubine, she lived in seclusion in Qionghua Palace and rarely met her.

Concubine Shen is a low-key person, and this is also the first time they have met each other.

Qi Wangshu was a little surprised after hearing what Concubine Shen said: "Concubine Shen, did you meet Su Shangqing in the Imperial Garden?"

Shen Shu just hated Su Shangqing, but now it seemed that they did too, so she nodded: "Yes, the weather is rarely sunny today, so I wanted to go out for a walk, but unexpectedly I met her."

"Ms. Shen still needs to be more careful. After all, the emperor's favorite one is her now. Besides, she is pregnant with the emperor's heir. The emperor is so attached to that child. If something really happens, it will affect Shen. Empress."

Qi Wangshu kindly reminded, but the situation is indeed the case now. No matter what happens to Su Shangqing, the child in her belly is always innocent. If something happens to Su Shangqing, maybe it can be fooled, but if something goes wrong with the child in her belly, If something happens, it will be serious.

Qi Wangshu had never been pregnant, but she once saw Liang Huanqing's miscarriage, and she couldn't bear it.

Although he refused to admit Su Shangqing's status in the royal family, no matter what, the child in Su Shangqing's belly was still the heir of the Qi royal family. Even if Qi Wangshu didn't feel sorry for Su Shangqing and didn't care about Su Shangqing, Qi Wangshu had no ill intentions towards the child.

After hearing what Qi Wangshu said, Shen Shu also nodded: "The princess is thoughtful, but the Ai family is also aware of the current situation and will definitely not do anything too extreme. The Ai family has the ability to protect themselves."

After saying this, Qi Wangshu understood that the current situation in the court was not stable. Although the Liang family and the Qin family were criticized by the emperor in every possible way, in the final analysis, no one could replace them. In addition, the empress was in the palace. The Liang family was quite complaining about the situation. Even if Liang Ji didn't say anything, the Liang family's retainers would still feel a little uncomfortable.

The retainers of the Liang family are all disciples brought up by Liang Fengmian, who also brought them up. Many of them are orphans. Most of these people know how to repay their kindness.

But now that she has become richer and richer, and the only eldest lady of the Liang family is in such a situation, it is inevitable that some people will feel a little uncomfortable and it is reasonable to complain.

Qi Jingqin knew this, and when they said it without knowing it, Qi Jingqin just pretended not to know. Sometimes being a king is like this, having all the situations under control, but when there are some things that should be ignored, Qi Jingqin should pretend to be ignorant. If you don't know, you can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

And Qi Jingqin will not trust the Liang family as he did before. However, now there are internal and external troubles, and many countries are obviously friendly, but secretly they are covetous. The Liang family is so untrusted, and now Danxiu is the nation that Qi Jingqin wants to focus on being friendly to. .

Among them, the only one who can be the intermediary messenger is Shen Shu.

Some time ago, China was unable to provide resources to Danhong, so Danhong withdrew his troops as they had agreed. It was also because of Princess Shen Shu's face that he did not do anything too excessive to China in this situation. matter.

Now that Qi Jingqin needs to continue to cooperate with King Danlong on the border issue, he needs Shen Shu's help even more.

As early as the Bingyu period, when King Danrong sent an envoy to congratulate him on his birthday, it could be seen that Danrong was a barbaric land. Their people were good at conquering and fighting, but they were not easy to get along with. Qi Jingqin was also worried that he would be the food of the Celestial Dynasty. As you said first, if you ask King Danlong for help again, you will have to pay a higher price.

Anyone who doesn't take advantage of the situation at this time is considered a friend, but now it's China that breaks its promise first. If we continue to cooperate, Shen Shu will inevitably have to deal with it.

Because Shen Shu knew this, she was even more sure that Qi Jingqin would definitely come to her recently, but also, even if Qi Jingqin didn't come to Shen Shu, Shen Shu would come to Qi Jingqin sooner or later.

Danlong will come to Beijing sooner or later, and he has informed Princess Shen Shu early. At that time, Shen Shu will inevitably have to negotiate with Qi Jingqin first to strive for greater benefits for Danlong.

As for Su Shangqing, it was just that she happened to meet Shen Shu, and Shen Shu also happened to hate such a woman extremely. How could Liang Huanqing, a good queen, be forced to be like this? If this were the case for Dan Xiu, concubine If you dare to override the principal wife, the principal wife will be able to execute the concubine.

In ordinary families, concubines are tools to make the family prosperous. Logically speaking, they are slaves of the head wife. However, in the royal family, concubines are also respectable people, so they are given a little more face, but such humiliation The queen is really hateful.

"Why is our queen's life so miserable..." Seeing that after waiting for so long, Yuebai still didn't come to let them pass. Mrs. Qin couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and she felt sorry for the queen she had seen since she was a child.

Qin Ruilan took her mother's shoulders and patted her gently. They were the ones who felt most sorry for Liang Huanqing. They were all very distressed when they saw Liang Huanqing suffering such pain.

Liang Huanqing lost her mother since she was a child. She lost her father not long ago. Her husband disappeared not long ago. She supported the whole country alone. Now the emperor has come back and brought another woman with him. I think the defense in my heart suddenly collapsed, so it was too late. Reluctant to wake up.

Since marrying the emperor, Liang Huanqing's fate has completely changed. Even Qi Wangshu sighed at this time: "If only the queen had not married the emperor, so many things would not have happened... "

They all know that since the late emperor granted marriage to Qi Jingqin and Liang Huanqing, Liang Huanqing has suffered threats to her life more than once. From the initial danger at Yunxiao Temple to the subsequent New Year's Eve family banquet, it was obviously Lu Huiling who went to Liang Huanqing. , the purpose is to want Liang Huanqing to die, and then blame this matter on Xia Rongxin and Qi Wangshu.

From the poisonous wine at the Spring Banquet, Liang Huanqing was killed every step of the way. Liang Huanqing was lucky to survive every time, but surviving would mean greater suffering and Liang Huanqing would have to continue to suffer.

No one was surprised at all when Qi Wangshu said such a thing. On the contrary, it was the most fair thing to say. Even the emperor's biological sister said so. It seemed that Liang Huanqing was really having a hard time.

When Shen Shu heard these words, she slowly lowered her head. She didn't know that these things happened. At that time, she was a bystander from beginning to end. Now she looks at the situation and it is too pitiful.

"The matter has come to this, and it is useless to regret it. It is better to think about what to do now." Shen Shu said, "It is definitely not an option to continue like this... When Concubine Shu gives birth to a child, it will be even more difficult for the Queen. ."

"Is it possible that Concubine Shu can really replace the Queen?" Qin Ruilan asked doubtfully.

In her eyes, Su Shangqing was just a tool in the hands of the emperor, used to control the queen. It was just because Su Shangqing had a child in her belly that she would be better than the queen. But now what Concubine Shen said, It's like Su Shangqing wants to replace Liang Huanqing.

Shen Shu looked at Qin Ruilan and said: "Of course not, the queen is better than Concubine Shu in terms of family background, quality and appearance. It's just that when the Ai family saw Concubine Shu today, she looked like she had this In my mind, I am afraid that I will do something even more extreme."

Shen Shu's worry is not unreasonable. A woman like Su Shangqing is very ambitious and will use any means to get it if she has nothing. She is afraid that Su Shangqing will do something bad before the queen can take a breath. No one can stop it.

These words let them all know that Shen Shu wanted to help the queen.

After Qi Wangshu understood, he took the lead and asked: "So, is there anything you can do about this, Miss Shen?"

Now the Queen's situation is indeed unfavorable. Even the Liang family and the Qin family above the court have been affected. Everyone knows what the emperor means at this time. Even if there is no life-long friendship, they are all alienated in every possible way, for fear of being harmed. Get yourself into trouble.

Shen Shu shook her head: "The Ai family wants to persuade the emperor... But it is not easy to persuade the Ai family at the moment. After all, they are not the biological mother, and they are not much different in age. We just wait for the Ai family's father and brother to come to the palace. Then we can talk about it. I think the emperor will listen."

What Shen Shu was thinking was that when her father and brother came to Beijing to discuss border defense with Qi Jingqin, she would definitely be the one to bring them together. At that time, her words would have some weight, and the emperor would listen to them.

"It's just that we have to wait for more than a month until the Ai family's father and brother enter the palace. Today, the Ai family has dampened Concubine Shu's spirit, but if the emperor talks about it in the future, it will still..." Shen Shu said worriedly.

"No need." A familiar but weak voice came from outside the door, "Let everyone worry about me... Ahem! I'm really sorry..."

Shen Shu, Qi Wangshu, Mrs. Qin, Qin Ruilan and others all stood up and looked over. The door of the main hall slowly opened, and a woman walked towards them with a light on her back. The eunuchs and maids outside the door all bowed their heads and knelt down.

"Huanqing!" Mrs. Qin called excitedly.

Her soft waist is lightly wrapped in a light pink dress, and the plain white gauze dress is lightly draped on the outside. Her graceful neck and clearly visible collarbone are faintly exposed, making her even more charming and charming. The pleats of her skirt are like snow and the moonlight flows lightly. On the ground, it stretches more than three feet, making the gait more graceful and soft. Three thousand blue silk hairs are tied up with light silver hairbands, and silver butterfly hairpins are inserted sideways. Two strands of green silk hair hang seemingly casually on the chest, and a thin layer of pink and white is applied. The looming red on the cheeks creates a delicate and cute look, and the bright eyes are blue. A slight smile can attract thousands of people, and there is always a light, fresh and natural fragrance of mint behind him. The whole person is like a butterfly flying in the wind. It is also like clear and clear ice and snow.

Dressed in a Yuebao Palace outfit, she is elegant but has a bit of a worldly temperament. The wide plain skirt meanders behind her, simple and elegant. The jade-like green silk is simply tied into a flying fairy bun, and a few round pearls are randomly embellished.

In the hair, it makes the black hair more soft, shiny and moist. The beauty of the eyes is overflowing with brilliance, and there is a faint smile on the lips.

The smoky green palace dress is covered with a thin layer of silver gauze. The crape myrtle is in full bloom on the hem of the wide coat. The three thousand green silk hairs are briefly pulled up, and the rest hangs around the neck. There is a small small hanging on the forehead.

The drop-shaped amethyst is embellished just right. The hollow flying phoenix on the head makes a jingling sound as the golden steps move lightly, which makes it look very charming.

The eyes are like water, with a bone-chilling coldness, and they seem to be able to see through everything. The fingers are slender, the skin is like gelatin, and the snow-white is pink, as if they can squeeze out water. The red lips are smiling like a beauty, and every move is like dancing. The supple black hair hangs straight down to the ankles.

, the fragrance emitted when dancing in the wind can attract butterflies. The waist is slender, the limbs are slender, and it has a fairy-like refined temperament. Dressed in white clothes, the dark patterns of purple and blue butterflies are vague. The black hair is draped down smoothly, only provoking

A few strands are lightly tied with butterfly tassels. A butterfly carved from a night pearl hangs on the forehead, emitting a full of light. There is no powder on the face, but it still can't conceal the stunning appearance. A crystal necklace around the neck makes the collarbone even more beautiful.

It was crisp and clear. The dark jade bracelets on her wrists highlighted her skin like snow, and a pair of gilt shoes on her feet were decorated with fluorescent gemstones. Her beautiful eyes were flowing, and she gently stepped into the threshold, with the corners of her skirt flying, as if she had lost her breath in the darkness.

The pale butterfly has an indifferent expression, like a fairy who cannot eat fireworks from the world. A faint smile appears at the corner of its mouth, as ethereal and gorgeous as fireworks.

Seeing her like this, Shen Shu couldn't help but raise a faint smile.

Yuebai supported Liang Huanqing and walked in. Mrs. Qin and Qin Ruilan looked at her straightly, with tears already flowing from the corners of their eyes to their chins. They calmed down and stepped forward and said: "My wife (my daughter) pays homage to the Queen!"

Liang Huanqing had no strength in her body, and now she had used up all her strength when she stood up. Although she was wearing light make-up, it could still be seen from her tired eyes that she was very weak now.

Tang Xue and the other two maids beside her stepped forward to help Mrs. Qin and Qin Ruilan get up for the Empress, while Yuebai helped the Empress slowly to their seats.

Liang Huanqing walked up to Shen Shu and was a little surprised when she saw Shen Shu, but the surprise quickly passed over her. Just when she was about to salute, Shen Shu quickly held her up with both hands and said: "Queens are like this

Yes, no gift required."

Everyone looked at Liang Huanqing, wanting to know how she was doing now.

Liang Huanqing nodded with a forced smile: "Well, I don't know if I can stand up to my concubine's formality..."

When everyone heard this, their hearts clenched. How serious is this, that Liang Huanqing would say such depressing words?

"Get some rest and say anything depressing." Qi Wangshu held back his tears and stepped forward to help Liang Huanqing sit down.

"You all should sit down too." After Liang Huanqing sat down, he smiled at everyone as if he didn't care.
