When Shen Qingyi heard the news about sealing the queen clearly from Luo Ren's mouth, even though Shen Qingyi was disdainful, her expression changed and she sat up straight on the couch.
Rumors are overwhelming now. For a little concubine Yi, the rumors are nothing more than that. Potian is just a romantic affair. But if she becomes the queen, things will be different.
The relationship between her and Zhao Xu is pure and innocent. Even if she is sealed as a concubine, it will not change her. She is just a sixth-grade palace concubine.
But the queen is the head of the harem, and her status is respected. If these rumors are spread after she is sealed, it will only make people in the world laugh at the Shen family for their incompetence in educating their daughter. She is not satisfied with the support of King Linjiang, and even climbs the dragon and the phoenix to send her daughter into the palace as the queen.
Isn't this a clear reason to impeach the Shen family?!
However, in front of Luo Ren, Shen Qingyi couldn't help herself.
So after Luo Ren handed over the imperial edict, she weighed it in her hand and seemed not even willing to open it and take a look. She just stared at Luo Ren and smiled.
——Then he took out his hairpin and divided the imperial edict into several paragraphs.
The bright yellow imperial edict was cut into several pieces of rags and scattered in the air.
In the Queen Mother's Palace, she put on a plain plain dress. Her usual charm and charm disappeared, leaving only her flattering demeanor.
…
She slammed the teacup in her hand on the table, letting the tea splash onto the table.
On the other side, Queen Mother Su and Liu Yan were sitting together.
The envoy from Xiliao came to visit, and she practiced archery every night for the sake of Yongchang's face. His Royal Highness the Regent paid a late-night visit, and while rubbing elbows with her, he taught her superb archery skills.
But it was Empress Dowager Su, the former Noble Concubine Su.
Sure enough, within an hour, someone came.
Naturally, the maids beside the Queen Mother did not dare to say anything, so they supported Queen Mother Su and left.
Shen Qingyi rolled her lips and said respectfully: "I don't dare to take it seriously. What the Empress Dowager said is that I, Shen Qingyi, was born in a humble background and was a slutty person. I was once the daughter-in-law appointed by the late empress, and I had some unclear rumors with the Crown Prince of Chu. I have an identity like mine."
Such a woman will definitely be a perfect match for His Majesty."
It was with this skill of archery that he successfully made Xiliao fear Yongchang and did not dare to attack him for many years.
The hot potato of the imperial edict is just the beginning.
At that time, she was still Zhao Xian's queen.
As she spoke, she took the opportunity to taunt: "Yi Bin, the Ai family has long heard that you had a relationship with the Crown Prince of Chu outside the palace, and you were once recognized as the prospective daughter-in-law by the former Queen Mother. The word "livish" in this daughter's family is not a compliment.
With your current background, it is really rare to be able to sit on the throne of the emperor's son and queen. It is not a good thing for you to be so ignorant of promotion."
She should quickly plan how to withstand the coming mountain rain.
Shen Qingyi had already put on a jade-colored palace dress, her hair was in a graceful bun, but she wore the hair of her unmarried daughter. She had a fox fur cloak around her shoulders, and she was sitting on a soft chair, leaning casually, as ordinary people would.
Incomparable luxury and elegance.
Shen Qingyi turned around and said coldly: "Send the Queen Mother away quickly!"
The leading maid only thought she was the submissive palace maid A Yao. She was extremely arrogant and refused to be polite. She stared at Shen Qingyi with eyes full of disdain.
Liu Yan was beating her legs for her.
Thinking of this, she greeted her enthusiastically and said with a smile: "Hey, where is the wind that brings the Queen Mother here?"
"And I, Shen Qingyi, was the hero of the annihilation of Xuanwu Mountain and the princess conferred by the late emperor. However, Zhao Xu repaid me with kindness and only allowed me a small sixth-grade concubine. It was called a reward, but it was actually house arrest. Now he is even coercing me.
For the future, what if I don’t agree? Does Zhao Xu dare to attack me, a great figure in the Shen family?!"
Shen Qingyi sneered.
She stood up and looked directly at the Empress Dowager Su, saying: "I want to see how Zhao Xu would hold his head up in front of future generations according to the historian if the Empress Dowager dared to force me to accept the position of queen!"
She raised her eyes casually, her black jade-like eyes were extremely calm, and it was obvious that she had not taken anyone into her eyes at all.
Seeing her earnestness, Empress Dowager Su couldn't help but look cold and arrogant. Thinking that Shen Qingyi was afraid of her as the mother of the country, she sat down at the top and said, "I heard that the prince of the Ai family intends to make you the queen."
But he refused. I have never heard of a weird person like you in the world."
Her words left Queen Mother Su speechless. Her bright red nails dug into the edge of the table and she was unable to utter even a single word.
Her words frightened Luo Ren so much that he didn't dare to do anything, and he immediately ran away in tears.
When the palace maid's voice fell, she did not raise her head, her eyes skipping the memory of her previous life.
Queen Mother Su naturally understood her sarcasm and couldn't help but said angrily: "You——"
Luo Ren was so frightened that he was dumbfounded.
She was half sarcastic and half belittling, as if Shen Qingyi's position as queen was so rare.
She praised Empress Dowager Su's words openly and secretly, and returned them to Zhao Xu intact.
Queen Mother Su was scolded by Shen Qingyi, and she was furious. Liu Yanneng was very talkative and tried her best to please, and finally relieved most of her anger.
Not long after the Queen Mother left, Liu Yan's people arrived.
Shen Qingyi twisted her white fox shawl with her fingers, showing no leisurely thoughts.
In this life, she grasped the crossbow again.
Seeing her, Shen Qingyi remembered what Zilan said back then, that it was she who, regardless of the life and death of the palace maids, allowed Zilan and others to strangle the prince and help Zhao Xu ascend to the throne.
After sitting on the throne of the Queen Mother, she is also plump and beautiful without losing any color.
Shen Qingyi stood up by herself, lifted her robe and sat down, picked up the tea, and said with a sneer: "The Queen Mother doesn't really think that the whole world is thinking about Zhao Xu's position as queen, right? In terms of identity, my father is your Majesty's teacher, and your eldest brother
He is a well-known and upright official in Yanqing. He is loved by the people. He has been in office for many years and has made no mistakes. He has an excellent reputation among the people. The second brother followed the prince of Chu to fight on the battlefield. If this victory is won, my brother will have no fault in it.
The leading palace maid came in with a group of strong-backed women, and kicked open the door of Yonghe Palace.
She drew her bow and arrow, pursed her lips slightly, and chuckled.
In a daze, she was still the empress in her previous life, a noble and victorious queen.
Shen Qingyi lay back on the couch again.
Zilan helped her once, and she didn't mind returning the favor.
She smiled and consoled her: "Why do you need to be so angry about her? I have sent someone to persuade you. I think Yibin will figure it out soon."
Shen Qingyi's fingers picked up the treasures and touched them one by one. Then with a flick of his fingers, all the treasures in the lacquer plate fell to the ground.
I'm afraid that one day in the future, when Zhao Xu's throne is stable, Empress Dowager Su will definitely silence all the maids who participated in the East Palace Incident.
When the palace maid came with her wives, she was calmly wiping the small crossbow in her hand.
"Tell Zhao Xu, he can be his queen to whomever he likes, and don't use these useless things to please me! Get out!"
"Are you going together or one by one?"
"Concubine Yi entered the palace in a hurry, and openly disobeyed Your Majesty. The concubine is the head of the harem, and she sent slaves to teach her. Concubine Yi, if you listen to the advice of your slave, if you turn back now, you can avoid the pain of your skin and flesh."
She looked at Liu Yan and said: "No wonder among these concubines, the emperor loves you the most. You are indeed the most sensible and intelligent. It would be great if Shen Qingyi was half as clever and sensible as you."
A coldness flashed in Liu Yan's eyes, but it disappeared when she raised her eyes.
She took the opportunity and said: "Why should the Queen Mother be angry? There is an excellent dancer coming to my concubine's palace. She sings and dances very well. Why don't you invite the Queen Mother to have a look and calm down her anger?"
I'll save the manuscript and I'll update it for you in the New Year.
