Chapter 1298 Join forces (additional update for the good Xiong Diting boss)
"I understand why Your Majesty wants to tell you this."
Princess Quan glanced at Mrs. Pan with some hatred.
There was also a hint of envy in his eyes.
This woman is simply blessed by God alone.
How many women entered the weaving room without registration, and have been in darkness and unknown in the world for the rest of their lives?
Her reputation has actually reached His Majesty's ears.
Then he could ask His Majesty to send a chariot to take her into the palace.
Even if he enters the palace, he can actually steal the favor of the king bitch.
She came from a humble background, and she overestimated her abilities and wanted to ascend to the throne. Coincidentally, she had to go out of her way to help her...
Mrs. Pan didn't know what Princess Quan was thinking. She looked at Princess Quan's complex and changing expression in confusion, not knowing why.
"I understand why Your Majesty said these things to you."
Princess Quan refilled herself with wine, then refilled Mrs. Pan's glass, and then said to Mrs. Pan one by one:
"I believe that Your Majesty does not want to appoint a bitch named Wang as your queen!"
When Mrs. Pan heard this, her eyes suddenly shone. She leaned forward regardless of her manners, and asked with surprise, joy, and uncertainty:
"Seriously? Princess, do you really mean what you said?"
"Why should I joke about such a big event?" Princess Quan drank another glass of wine confidently, "At least Your Majesty doesn't insist on making the king a bitch your queen."
She put down her wine glass, stared at Mrs. Pan, and emphasized: "This shows that we still have a chance!"
Compared with before entering the palace, I thought that His Majesty had already decided who would be his queen. Now this news is really good news.
"More importantly, His Majesty said these words in front of you. What does this mean?"
"What does it mean?"
"Your Majesty believes in you, so you may not be the one in His Majesty's heart."
Mrs. Pan's breathing suddenly became rapid, and even her words were a little incoherent:
"Really...really? Princess, don't say it as a joke. What you said, do you mean it?"
"The bitch named Wang is the mother of the prince, and she is supported by Lu Boyan in the court. In the harem, not to mention you, among all the ladies in the palace, whose qualifications can compare with hers?
"
As the saying goes, only my mother can hold down someone named Wang.
Princess Quan smiled faintly and continued:
"With such advantages of time, place and people, His Majesty was obviously unhappy when he talked to you about this matter last night. That can only mean one thing: She is not the one in His Majesty's heart."
No one knows their children better than their parents.
Sometimes the reverse can also be true.
No one knows his parents better than his children.
Your Majesty may not be disgusted with people named Wang, but he is certainly disgusted with Lu Boyan and others for interfering too much in the harem.
So I also felt a little angry towards Bitch Wang.
At this time, Mrs. Pan was overjoyed:
"That's great, great!"
After barely calming down, Mrs. Pan looked at Princess Quan with some admiration:
"Then what should we do now? What does the princess want me to do?"
Princess Quan shook her head:
"The more times like this, the more important it is for you to stay calm. The most important thing for you right now is to be yourself as you did in the past, serve His Majesty with all your heart, and never lose your balance."
"The rest," a thoughtful light flashed in her eyes, "No one can say what His Majesty is thinking right now..."
Hearing this, Mrs. Pan stopped talking.
Princess Quan noticed her little expression and asked involuntarily:
"What did Madam want to say?"
Mrs. Pan looked a little hesitant, as if she didn't know what she was thinking, whether she should tell Princess Quan or not.
However, she also knew that Princess Quan saw these things more clearly than she did, so in the end she gritted her teeth and mentioned one person:
"Speaking of understanding His Majesty's thoughts, there is actually a person who may be able to help, but I don't know if the princess is willing to let him participate."
As soon as these words came out, Princess Quan was a little surprised: "Who?"
I originally thought that Mrs. Pan came from a humble background and entered the palace alone, so she had no connections.
I didn't expect to find out from her mouth that there was someone else who could help her in the palace?
This time, Mrs. Pan was much more cautious. She first looked around carefully to make sure that there were only two of them on the Zhaoxuan stage, and it was impossible for anyone in the audience to hear their conversation.
Then she leaned over and whispered:
"School Affairs Office, Lu Zhongshu."
"What!"
This time, it was the princess's turn to speak out in horror.
She quickly covered her mouth and glanced at the palace people in the distance. Then she let go and looked at Mrs. Pan in disbelief:
"Madam, you, how did you get in touch with Lu Yi?"
The school affairs office has been keeping a low profile in recent years.
But this does not mean that the school administration has lost His Majesty's trust.
On the contrary, as a member of the royal family, Princess Quan knows better than others that although the school office has not created any prestige in the court in recent years.
However, His Majesty relies more and more on the school affairs office for many matters.
For example, the income of the palace and the expenses of the clan.
Even the money and food for the imperial army often need to be prepared by the school affairs office.
In the past few years, most of the envoys His Majesty has sent to the Han Kingdom have been school officials, rather than ministers from the court.
This is enough to show that the school office enjoys the trust of His Majesty.
Who dares to say that the school affairs office has lost its power?
Lu Yi, the secretary of the school affairs office, had been feared by all the officials in his early years but could do nothing about him, but now he has the trust of your majesty and controls money and food.
When it comes to understanding His Majesty's thoughts, this person is definitely at the top.
"I, I don't know either!"
The extremely beautiful Mrs. Pan once again showed a blank expression, "The first time I entered the palace, it was someone from the school affairs office who sent me in."
"And after I entered the palace, I found out that it was Lu Zhongshu who spoke kindly in front of His Majesty, so that my portrait was sent to His Majesty."
"I still have a sister who is still in the weaving room. Now she can occasionally send me some news, saying that she is being taken care of in the weaving room and living a good life. She tells me not to worry."
"The person who took care of her also told her that this was the order given by Lu Zhongshu himself."
Mrs. Pan and her sister have always been under the care of the school administration, so she has been curious about Lu Zhongshu for a long time.
It's just that she has been in the deep palace, and her only relative, sister, is in the weaving room again.
Naturally, no one could help her come to thank her and ask her what happened.
"Lu Zhongshu helped you so much for no reason?"
Princess Quan was almost jealous.
How much luck has this woman received from God?!
Who is Lu Yi?
I have only heard bad news, never good deeds.
How could he take so much care of Mrs. Pan secretly?
The key is that the person being cared for still looks baffled.
"Perhaps it is possible that he is an old friend of my late father?"
Mrs. Pan said with some uncertainty.
The only thing she thought of was this possibility.
"No matter what it is, if he really has good intentions towards Madam, then it's worth a try for us."
After learning that a school affairs office had appeared inexplicably behind Mrs. Pan, Princess Quan, who originally thought that Mrs. Pan was just isolated and helpless, refreshed her spirits and couldn't help but start to look at the lady in front of her.
The tone also changed from being a little rude at first to calling her "ma'am".
"It's just that Madam, you are in the deep palace. It is difficult to see Lu Zhongshu, let alone talk to him."
Princess Quan pondered and glanced at Mrs. Pan, "But I have never had any contact with the school affairs office. If I contact you rashly, I'm afraid it would be too rash."
Hearing that Princess Quan wanted to contact the school affairs office, Mrs. Pan asked worriedly:
"What if Lu Zhongshu doesn't want to get involved in this kind of thing?"
If Lu Zhongshu is displeased, won't she lose a helping hand?
Especially when no one in the palace can be trusted, the goodwill of the school office becomes even more important.
Princess Quan seemed to notice her worries and said with a smile:
"Why would Madam have such thoughts? Lu Zhongshu took such good care of Madam and her relatives before, is it possible that now he will just watch Madam in danger in the palace and ignore it?"
"Danger?"
"If that bitch named Wang becomes the queen, do you think she will be in no danger?"
Princess Quan paused, with a threatening tone in her tone:
"Now for her sake, Lu Boyan and others can make all the concubines who have no status move out of the palace. Then when she becomes the queen, who knows that she won't use the same method to deal with you, madam?"
"Madam, you don't want to follow in the footsteps of those beloved concubines, do you?"
Mrs. Pan then remembered that compared to the possibility of offending Lu Zhongshu rashly, the fact that she could not be the queen was indeed more serious.
At this time, Princess Quan's tone softened again and she turned to smile:
"Actually, even if there is no wife, I'm afraid Lu Zhongshu will not treat Lu Boyan well. Most of the things Lu Boyan supports are things that Lu Zhongshu opposes."
"And if my wife is there to pull the strings, I can join forces with Lu Zhongshu and naturally be able to deal with Lu Boyan better."
First, he persuaded the king to make the son of the bitch the prince, and now he persuaded the king to make the bitch the queen. In addition, he suppressed the whole family on Shouchun's military exploits.
Princess Quan felt that her grievances with Lu Boyan were getting worse.
As for Lu Zhongshu, Lu Boyan had written many times in his early years, strongly criticizing the harm caused by the school affairs office, and even suggested that your majesty abolish the school affairs office and investigate the crimes of all school officials.
Princess Quan believed that Lu Yi would not forget these old things so easily.
As long as Lu Boyan is suppressed, Bitch Wang will lose his biggest supporter in the court.
When she and Mrs. Pan join forces again in the palace, she won't believe it and can't drag the man named Wang down.
"Is that so?"
After hearing Princess Quan's explanation, Mrs. Pan couldn't help but feel excited.
"Although I have not been able to meet Lu Zhongshu in person, I have met my sister. If the princess wants to join forces with Lu Zhongshu, I can send a message to my sister and see if she can bring a message to Lu Zhongshu."
"If so, that would be great!"
All the princesses were overjoyed.
She picked up the jug and poured wine for Mrs. Pan.
This time, she really meant it.
You can tell from the slightly bent forward posture.
After talking about the business, Princess Quan lowered her attitude and deliberately catered to her, and the two of them began to talk and laugh formally.
At this moment, all the palace people in the audience could hear were shouting:
"See Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty is here?"
Mrs. Pan stood up in surprise and followed the sound.
Sure enough, he saw Sun Quan climbing up the steps.
"I (daughter) pay homage to Your Majesty."
"Haha, get up! Everyone, get up."
Sun Quan seemed to be in a good mood, with joy in his tone:
"I saw the two of you talking here from a distance. You seemed very happy. I wonder if I disturbed your enjoyment?"
Mrs. Pan covered her mouth and smiled:
"Your Majesty is joking. The princess is waiting for Your Majesty and wants to pay your respects. I am the one who is disturbing her."
Her eyes flickered, quite charmingly, "Why don't I step aside first and let Your Majesty have a conversation with the princess?"
"Huh, no need."
Sun Quan waved his hand and looked at Mrs. Pan and then at Princess Quan.
One is his most beloved wife, and the other is his most beloved daughter.
The two of them were able to talk happily, which made him very happy.
This daughter can finally get along with the lady in the palace.
Unlike with Mrs. Wang, they are simply incompatible with each other, which gives me a headache.
“The scenery here is nice and the water is pleasant. It’s a good place for my wife to choose.”
Sun Quan walked to the mat and greeted:
"Come, madam, please come and sit with me so that I can relax."
Mrs. Pan walked over with a charming smile.
"Daughter, come here too."
Princess Quan waved her hand, deliberately glanced back and forth between Sun Quan and Mrs. Pan, and said:
"My daughter went to the palace to pay her respects to her father because she missed him and was worried about his health."
"Now," she said meaningfully, "seeing that her father is being taken care of makes her daughter feel relieved."
After saying that, she blinked narrowly and said, "Then my daughter will leave first."
In fact, he winked at Mrs. Pan.
Looking at his daughter's back, Sun Quan was not ashamed, but laughed happily.
"His Majesty!"
Mrs. Pan naturally took the hint from Princess Quan and was immediately irritated.
Sun Quan laughed again and shook the flask of peach wine:
"You two are quite drinkers."
"Ah! Your Majesty, it's my fault. Let me clean it up now."
"no, I'm fine!"
Sun Quan didn't mind at all. When he was in a good mood, or towards the people he liked, he was quite sarcastic and didn't have much airs.
For example, in the early years, when Zhu Huan went on an expedition, Sun Quan saw him off. Zhu Huan served the wine cup and said: "I will go far away. I hope that once I stroke your majesty's beard, I will have no regrets."
Quan Ping sat at the front table. Huan came forward and stroked his beard and said, "I really feel like I'm stroking a tiger's beard today." Sun Quan laughed.
"It's a rare taste to drink the leftover wine from your wife and your own daughter."
Sun Quan poured the wine into Mrs. Pan's cup, drank it all in one gulp, and then smacked his lips:
"It's just that there is too little wine to fully enjoy the meal. Come and bring me another jug of wine."
Then he said to Mrs. Pan:
"With a beautiful woman in my arms, and beautiful scenery dazzling my eyes, how can I go home if I'm not drunk?"
The two of them drank and enjoyed the scenery on Zhaoxuan Terrace.
Mrs. Pan got the help of the whole princess to relieve her worries from last night.
Coupled with the fact that His Majesty was by my side, I was in such a good mood that I became intoxicated without even realizing it.
She stood on the stage, drank a full glass of wine, looked at the ripples of the lake below the stage, fish scales appeared slightly, her heart moved, and she spit the wine in her mouth into the jade pot.
"Come here, pour down the wine in this pot, and today I will invite the fish in the lake to drink rose peach wine too!"
The palace servant was ordered to take the wine jug and pour it into the lake.
Unexpectedly, when I tilted the wine pot, I could only hear the sound of clanking inside.
It turned out that Mrs. Pan was drunk and accidentally dropped the ruby ring she was wearing on her finger.
Mrs. Pan took the ring handed back by the palace attendant and hung it on the pomegranate branch while she was drunk:
"It's God's will that it wants to leave me. How can I force it to stay? Why don't I let it stay here with the pomegranates."
Seeing this, Sun Quan, who was half drunk, also put his palms in his hands and laughed:
"Beautiful, wonderful!"
It turns out that the red and green leaves of rubies and pomegranates complement each other, and they sway slightly under the breeze of the lake, which is quite artistic.
In addition, the birds standing under the branches look like Mrs. Pan's weak willows blown by the wind. It is really beautiful.
Sun Quan took advantage of his drunkenness and said:
"Madam hangs pomegranates on a ring. From now on, this table will be called the Huanqiu Table!"
From then on, Zhaoxuan Terrace was changed to Huanliu Terrace.
Mrs. Pan is also known as the pomegranate flower goddess in the name of the goddess.
This is a good story.
But a certain Taoist named Zhuge who traveled to Wudi smiled calmly after hearing this rumor:
"The world is divided into three parts, and the three kingdoms of Han, Wei, and Wu are fighting each other. The name of 'Huanliu' can be said to be 'returning Liu'. From this, the Kingdom of Wu must return to the Kingdom of Han!"
He looked towards the distant northwest, "Brother, it seems that someone will fulfill your legacy for you."
He shook his head again:
"Although Jianye has the spirit of a dragon, the dragon's veins have been cut off and the Wu Kingdom has established its capital here. The national destiny will not last long, so it is better not to stay here."
After saying this, he turned around and left without entering Jianye City.
(Note: Refers to the fact that Qin Shihuang sent people to dig out the dragon veins in Moling)
PS: Boss, you are throwing money at me. I don’t feel at ease if I don’t pay for it. After coaxing the child in the middle of the night, I still have to go against the rules and continue to code.
