Chapter 298 The Empress

Concubine Shu's eyes were swollen from crying, so she was helped by two palace maids to sit in the tea hall nearby.

As soon as he entered, he saw the emperor holding a teapot in his hand and pouring a cup of tea for the queen.

When Concubine Shu sat down next to the Emperor, she fully expected that the Emperor would pour her a cup of hot tea to soothe her throat.

Unexpectedly, the emperor handed the teapot to her and asked her to pour it herself.

Hot water was poured into the teacup, and the warm mist rose up, making Concubine Shu's red and swollen eyes moister.

Lu Hebei looked at Concubine Shu, who had a strange look on her face, and then at the Queen who was sitting upright and sipping tea wholeheartedly.

I couldn't help but sigh slightly from the bottom of my heart.

I don’t know why, other people’s wives and concubines are either living in harmony (fake), or they’re having sex.

There is only an indescribable weird feeling in his home.

Gongsun Wanying is a model among ladies, with outstanding appearance and good nature. She is familiar with all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, she is also involved in sericulture and farming, and has a thorough reading on current affairs and military art.

But now, he can only force himself to accept marrying wives and taking concubines on the same day. In the future, perhaps to weigh some things, he will marry more women.

Gongsun Wanying: "Thank you for your hard work, Concubine Shu. When you turn around, I will ask the small table to bring some snacks to the tea room. They are all your favorites. When you are tired, go to the tea room to have a rest. Don't keep kneeling."

Wu Yueniang is more like his common country girl, with an innocent and simple temperament. But because of the sudden change in status, Xu suddenly changed from a poor peasant girl to a lady from an official family who made slaves, maids, and wore gold and silver. Very few people can

Keep your mind steady.

Wu Yueniang could only say: "I also want to see the Queen Mother."

It's not because she was born inferior to the queen and was not favored by the emperor that this happened.

Lu Hebei felt that he was the cause of all this.

It's a pity that she has become accustomed to fine food and clothing, and now she is hallucinating from vegetarian food.

Wu Yueniang was dissatisfied and couldn't hide it on her face.

"this……"

Thinking that there were still more than ten months of vegetarianism waiting for her, Wu Yueniang felt that there was not much meaning in living like this.

After thinking about all this, Lu Hebei understood why the wives and concubines in his family got along so strangely.

Gongsun Wanying saw him moving his fingers lightly and hurriedly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I am going to see the Queen Mother."

Wu Yueniang said aggrievedly: "No hard work, this is what I should do."

"No, no, I... I will do my best." After saying that, Wu Yueniang urged Gongsun Wanying, "Queen, please go quickly, don't keep the Queen Mother waiting."

This is probably the helplessness of the three of them, or maybe more people!

She had heard that the Queen Mother only fasted for one month and then stopped observing the filial piety system in the palace.

Wu Yueniang is one of them.

Gongsun Wanying smiled lightly at Wu Yueniang and said, "Concubine Shu, what's the matter?"

Why couldn't she just go to the Queen Mother's Palace to rest, sit, and have a meal? There were so many experienced nuns and eunuchs in the palace, and originally she couldn't do much even if she just knelt down and rested here.

"Thank you for your consideration, ma'am."

"I want to..." I want to go to the Queen Mother's Palace to eat meat with the Queen.

Lu Hebei frowned slightly: "There are only the Queen and Concubine Shu in the Solitary Empress Palace. If you two leave, who will take care of all the female relatives in the palace? When the maids and eunuchs have something to ask someone to make decisions, do they still have to go to the Empress Dowager's Palace?

I want you to make up your mind?"

If he was still in Lujiazhuang in Dongyang County, he was still the second son of the Lu family who did not care about worldly affairs. Then he must be like father and mother, a pair for life.

When the words came to her mouth, she saw the emperor's handsome face looking over with some doubts. She couldn't say these words no matter what.

As soon as Wu Yueniang heard this, she knew that she did not want to have a meal in the Empress Dowager's Palace. The Empress Dowager was pregnant. On the surface, she was responsible for many trivial matters in the harem during the funeral.

Lu Hebei nodded: "Okay, I'll have someone take you there."

Seeing that the emperor and empress were leaving as soon as they said so, but they really didn't care about her, Wu Yueniang became anxious. She hurriedly caught up with her and called out softly: "Empress, stay here."

They were not originally from the same world, but fate tied them together and married the same man. They had to accommodate each other, but they also hated each other.

Over time, Wu Yueniang will either become weak and incompetent, or become narrow-minded and selfish.

As soon as she said this, the resentment in Wu Yueniang's heart suddenly became lighter.

But I was muttering in my heart, why don't I feel aggrieved? There are only three masters in the palace except Changle Hall. The Queen goes to the Queen Mother's place to eat twice out of three times a day. Occasionally, the Emperor will go over to talk to the Queen Mother and leave some food.

In Gongsun Wanying's eyes, Wu Yueniang was pitiful and pathetic, but she would not abuse her kindness and compassion. From the time they married into the Prince of Qin's palace together, competition began, and the kindness of her opponent meant that she was irresponsible to herself.

The Gongsun family has been a truly century-old family for several generations in the previous dynasty, and has produced countless outstanding children. However, Gongsun Wanying has a lively and cheerful temperament, and has no unnecessary petty thoughts.

Gongsun Wanying looked at the emperor hesitantly, "Your Majesty, is it possible for my concubine and Concubine Shu to go to Weiyang Palace together?"

Wu Yueniang stood up at the same time as Gongsun Wanying. She looked at Gongsun Wanying eagerly and then at the emperor, hoping that one of the two would say something to her and let her accompany the queen to the Queen Mother's Palace.

She is the only one who eats vegetarian food every day, and her skin is not fair and delicate enough to begin with. Now that she is a vegetarian, her skin is a little yellowish and green.

Gongsun Wanying gently held Wu Yueniang's hand, and said sincerely: "In this large harem, there are only you and me, and I am physically inconvenient. Now is the period of national mourning, and many matters in the palace are busy. I

The palace is powerless, so I can only entrust everything here to you. I hope Concubine Shu will not blame me."

Although she couldn't go to the Queen Mother's palace and eat something good, the Queen Mother was pregnant, so she had to make decisions about these trivial matters in the palace.

She became arrogant but cowardly and inferior. She didn't know much about literacy, and she didn't know how to control people. She was strong on the outside but hard on the inside, and didn't know how to adapt. The more she wanted to express herself, the more people felt she was trying to imitate others.

In Wu Yueniang's eyes, Gongsun Wanying is aloof and aloof, with a sense of superiority like that of other women. Wu Yueniang wanted to be better than Gongsun Wanying, but she was always at a disadvantage.

Now she wants to leave, but the emperor says no, so she definitely can't leave.

Such a wife can be called a good wife.

Gongsun Wanying said hurriedly: "When the funeral is over, Concubine Shu will have to work hard these days."

Lu Hebei sat in the tea hall for a while, but he couldn't sit still any longer.

Look, the empress didn’t want to ask the imperial kitchen to make her favorite snacks.

By the time the emperor went to the main hall and the queen went to Weiyang Palace, Wu Yueniang was kneeling with all the female relatives until her back ached. Even the newly delivered snacks from the tea hall were no longer delicious to her.

Wu Yueniang couldn't help but look around blankly.

who I am?

What do I do?

Where is my meat?

When can I eat meat?
