Queen Gu left everyone to have lunch in Fengyi Hall.
The dining room in Fengyi Palace is very spacious, and it is still more than enough for three tables. The prince, Gu Xinian and Gu Yongnian have one seat, Sun's Queen Gu and Mrs. Zheng have another seat, and the remaining young women naturally have a seat. It's a seat.
As the Crown Princess, it was natural for Madam Mo to sit at the top. Logically speaking, Concubine Lin and Concubine Shen should have sat beside her. However, unexpectedly, Madam Mo kindly greeted Ye Qinglan to sit beside her. : "Today you and your cousin went to the palace to express gratitude. You were supposed to be the leader. But I took this seat. I feel really bad about it. Come and sit next to me quickly so that we can have a good talk. Talk to you later.”
Shen Qiuyu's smile paused, and then she took her steps back as if nothing had happened.
Mr. Mo deliberately embarrassed Shen Qiuyu, and of course Ye Qinglan spared no effort to cooperate. She sat down with a smile. Concubine Lin sat on the other side of Mr. Mo, and Zhang Yue sat next to Ye Qinglan. Shen Qiuyu could only accompany her. Last seat!
There is no need to describe the turmoil in Shen Qiuyu's heart in detail. However, the moment she sat down, she looked as usual, and even had a smile on her face.
Able to bend and stretch, with such beauty and such scheming, no wonder he was able to coax the prince into submission. No wonder he hurt Gu Xinian so miserably in his previous life...
At this moment, Ye Qinglan finally officially listed Shen Qiuyu as his number one enemy!
There is no doubt that if Shen Qiuyu really gains power one day, she will definitely be the first person to deal with it! Moreover, judging from the current situation, this possibility is really not small. As long as the prince ascends the throne, Shen Qiuyu will definitely She will be made a concubine. With her favor, if she crosses the Mo family and becomes the Lord of the Sixth Palace, it will be very bad...
Such a potentially terrifying opponent can no longer be summed up simply as a love rival. It must be eradicated as soon as possible to avoid more trouble in the future.
Even if it was for Gu Xinian, I would never let go of this woman with a heart as poisonous as a scorpion!
Ye Qinglan smiled slightly and took a deep look at Shen Qiuyu opposite. Shen Qiuyu seemed to have noticed something and looked over with a smile.
The moment their eyes met, the two people could clearly see the coldness in each other's eyes.
One day, the two of them will tear apart this veil of hypocrisy and meet each other with swords! They will never give up until they get rid of each other!
Of course, people at the same table would not miss the subtle atmosphere between the two. Mrs. Mo and Concubine Lin hated Shen Qiuyu to the core, and they would spare no effort to suppress Shen Qiuyu. They deliberately showed affection towards Ye Qinglan. Luo, leaving Shen Qiuyu aside.
One after another exquisite dishes were served one after another. Mrs. Mo smiled and said: "The dishes in the palace are exquisite and delicious, you might as well try more." After saying that, he personally picked up the dishes and put them into Ye Qinglan's bowl.
Ye Qinglan smiled quickly and thanked her.
Concubine Lin also enthusiastically served Ye Qinglan some food, and said with a smile: "I wanted to invite you to the house to talk before, but you are not married yet. It is inconvenient to leave the house. But it will be much more convenient in the future."
"As long as Concubine Lin doesn't dislike me for being dull and boring, I will have the audacity to come and bother you." Ye Qinglan smiled back.
The three people in this room were very lively talking and laughing. In contrast, Shen Qiuyu's room was extremely deserted and no one paid any attention to them.
Zhang Yue was well aware of all this, and after a moment of hesitation, he chose neutrality. He neither deliberately alienated Shen Qiuyu, nor deliberately talked to Ye Qinglan.
After Shen Qiuyu fell out of favor and regained favor, she became much more thoughtful. No matter how much she was gnashing her teeth in her heart, her face didn't show it at all. She even pretended to be listening attentively.
After lunch, everyone moved to the side hall to drink tea and chat.
Empress Gu held on for a long time. Her physical strength was obviously exhausted, and her expression showed a look of fatigue. When Mrs. Sun saw this, she felt distressed and uncomfortable. She wanted to say something considerate to herself in private, so she made a move to Mrs. Zheng. A look.
Mrs. Zheng understood the idea and immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Empress, my concubine would like to lead Madam Ye and Madam Zhang around for a while in the garden of Fengyi Palace. Please grant me your permission."
Empress Gu agreed with a smile, and glanced at Mr. Mo intentionally or unintentionally. Mr. Mo immediately stood up and said with a smile: "It just so happens that I also want to go out for a walk, so I'll go with my aunt."
After everyone left, only Mrs. Sun and Queen Gu were left.
"Weiniang," Mrs. Sun called Empress Gu by her maiden name: "Now there are only two of us. Tell me, what's going on with your illness?"
Empress Gu gave a bitter smile and had no intention of hiding it in front of her mother: "In the beginning, I was restless and always wanted to get angry for no reason. Later, I had nightmares all night long and couldn't sleep at all. Now, although I drink Even after taking the soothing decoction, I still have nightmares from time to time. I feel listless and groggy every day. Now Concubine Zheng has taken over the affairs of the palace, and she deliberately promoted Cao Jieyu and Huang Meiren to serve. Your Majesty, Your Majesty is fascinated by these two beauties, why would you want to come to my Fengyi Palace again? I'm really worried that if this continues, the Crown Prince's status will be affected..."
The movements in the harem and the court have always been closely related. If she, the queen, could be stable and secure, the prince's position would be as stable as a mountain and no one could touch it. But now, Concubine Zheng has gained power, and the three princes' party has another party. There is a trend that is about to start. I have tried my best to gain a little advantage before, but I don’t know how long it can last.
Sun was not a fool. After listening to Queen Gu's words, she knew that the most worrying issue in Queen Gu's heart was the prince. She immediately comforted her in a low voice: "You don't have to worry about the prince's affairs. Your father and your brother are here, as well as Xi." With Nian Yixin assisting, the third prince is definitely no match for the prince. Besides, most of the ministers in the court support the prince, so there is nothing to worry about."
Empress Gu sighed softly: "The human heart is the most delicate. There are many people who are the icing on the cake. I am afraid that once they lose their Sacred Heart, how many of those important officials in the court will stand with the prince sincerely?" In the final analysis, the real The princeling party does not have much power. Those ministers in the DPRK and China who are watching and taking action may be on the side of the prince today, but they may be on the side of the third prince tomorrow. What really matters is the holy family! And the holy family has always been It is consistent with the trends in the harem.
Now that Concubine Zheng is in power, the three princes and their faction feel like they have been beaten to death. On the other hand, the princelings are all very worried.
"No matter how unfavored I am, I will never lose my position as the Queen of the Central Palace." A hint of coldness and determination flashed in Queen Gu's eyes, but what didn't match it was her pale and tired sick face: "Anshen Decoction does have some effects on the human body. Damage, but there is no other way at the moment. It is much better than insomnia all night long."
The damage caused by the Anshen Decoction to the body is long-term and slow, and it will not have much impact in the short term. However, if you have insomnia all night long, it will wipe out a person's energy and physical strength in the short term. What if the emperor
After listening to the villain's slander, she was asked to move out of Fengyi Palace to "rest in peace". Her position as queen was really in jeopardy...
Sun's eyes were slightly red: "I know your suffering, but you can't torture yourself like this. If your body is really damaged, what will you do in the future..."
Queen Gu's nose felt sore, her eyes flashed with water, and her voice lowered: "Mom, I know you feel sorry for me. However, I am also a mother, and I have to plan for my son. As long as I get through this
After a while, if Concubine Zheng and the Third Prince can't make any progress, they will naturally die down. I'll be fine after another two months."
Mrs. Sun couldn't say anything and kept wiping the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
Empress Gu also shed a few tears. However, she was a determined person after all. She quickly calmed down and whispered: "You don't have to worry about the harem for now. I can still handle it. It's just the court.
You must pay special attention to the side."
Mrs. Sun responded with red eyes: "Don't worry, I will talk to your father and the others carefully when I get back."
Empress Gu hummed, thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Also, don't embarrass the Ye family. Xinian tried his best to marry her into the palace and took her very seriously. If he knew that she had been wronged,
, I will inevitably feel unhappy. Xinian is indispensable for the prince to make suggestions, and we cannot let him be distracted at this time."
Mrs. Sun nodded in agreement without thinking. At this time, all her thoughts were on Queen Gu and the Crown Prince, and she could not think of embarrassment for Ye Qinglan.
On this side, everyone is admiring the spring scenery in the garden.
The prince deliberately slowed down his pace. Gu Xinian knew better and walked much slower.
"Father, I have become a lot closer to the three emperors these days." The prince lowered his voice, and a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes. The direction of the Sacred Heart can affect the situation in the court. The situation was originally good, but in this month, it has changed.
There have been subtle changes again.
Gu Xinian was very aware of the prince's concerns and casually said a few words of comfort. However, the scene at this time in his previous life appeared in his mind.
In the previous life, Empress Gu was ill for more than half a year. Concubine Zheng was in charge of the Sixth Palace and was favored by the Holy Spirit. The third prince also rose in power, completely overshadowing the prince. Later, Empress Gu's illness
She never really recovered and only took the title of Queen. Concubine Zheng became the de facto Lord of the Sixth Palace.
From then on, the princeling party became more and more unstable. More and more people stood in the camp of the third prince. Within two years, the emperor issued an order to depose the prince and change the third prince to the prince.
This crisis has come in this life.
However, the prince in this life is much stronger than in the previous life. Without him as a shrewd and powerful opponent, he has gathered a lot of power around him. Even if Queen Gu is still sick like in the previous life, she will not be completely defeated.
