When Wen Xiaotu and Lin Baolin walked out of the Yi Nian Palace, the sun was already high.
The Queen Mother is really becoming more and more nagging.
At this moment, Pingting, a little girl dressed like a golden girl in front of the Buddha, wearing a big red tapestry butterfly and a flowered shirt, came up. Isn't she none other than the eldest princess Jinyan?
"Empress Wen!" the eldest princess saluted.
Looking at the little girl with a round and cute face, Wen Xiaotu couldn't help but smile. This child now lives in the side hall of Yi Nian Palace and is raised by the Queen Mother herself.
The eldest princess's clothes were more luxurious than before, which showed that the old man's taste... was very festive, and it also showed that the eldest princess had never been neglected. However, the eldest princess looked miserable. She looked at Lin Baolin next to her, her face suddenly changed.
Bright and dark.
"What's wrong with the eldest princess?" Wen Xiaotu bent down and whispered softly, "The Queen Mother is worshiping Buddha in the palace, does the princess want to go in?"
Hearing such a gentle tone and looking into such concerned eyes, the eldest princess suddenly felt a sore nose and her eyes were red, "Ms. Wen, my mother-in-law didn't lie. It was really Mrs. Lin who made such rude remarks that made my mother-in-law get beaten up in anger.
She slapped her face."
At this moment, Lin Baolin was standing nearby. In an instant, Mrs. Lin's face turned pale.
The eldest princess's eyes were red, like a little rabbit, "But the royal grandmother said that I was lying, but I really wasn't lying!" Her mouth was flat, and she was extremely aggrieved.
It can be seen that the eldest princess also said these words to the Queen Mother, but unfortunately the Queen Mother regarded them as protecting Concubine De.
Lin Baolin breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Xiaotu said softly: "However, Concubine De still hit Lin Baolin. The princess should know that the rules in the palace are that even the maids are not allowed to slap her, not to mention that Lin Baolin is a concubine."
The eldest princess's big eyes were stunned, and then she asked in a low voice: "Then...Mother Wen, do you believe that I didn't lie?"
Wen Xiaotu glanced at Lin Baolin from the corner of his eye, and then said with a smile: "It doesn't matter whether I believe it or not. What matters is what the Emperor and the Queen Mother think of Concubine De. Princess, please don't get into trouble."
Wen Xiaotu then said softly: "What the princess has to do is to live a happy life under the Queen Mother's knees and fulfill her filial piety. After some time, when the Queen Mother and the Emperor have calmed down, they will naturally forgive Concubine De."
After hearing this, Princess Jinyan was overjoyed: "Is it true? Will my father and my grandmother forgive my mother and concubine?"
Wen Xiaotu nodded: "Yes, Princess, please be patient. Okay, Princess, please go and accompany the Queen Mother."
The eldest princess nodded heavily and ran into the palace happily.
Lin Baolin's face was very complicated: "Why does Empress Zhaoyi..." Why do you want to mention the eldest princess?
Wen Xiaotu simply said: "I am also going to be a mother soon."
After saying these words, Wen Xiaotu stepped forward to board the instrument and headed towards Changyi Palace.
Looking at Wen Zhaoyi walking away, Lin Baolin didn't understand that as a mother, she would naturally pity her child and believe her words.
Lin Baolin took a deep breath. No worries, Wen Zhaoyi just gave the eldest princess a few words. She was helping the eldest princess, not Concubine De. After all, Concubine De was banned in the first place precisely because she humiliated Wen Zhaoyi in public. She did not believe that Wen Zhaoyi would
Have no grudges and repay evil with kindness.
Returning to Changyi Palace, Hongguo closed the palace door and couldn't help but said: "Mother, is it possible that Lin Baolin deliberately angered Concubine De..."
Wen Xiaotu spread out a piece of rice paper, opened a book of poetry, and said calmly: "What the truth is, it doesn't matter." What mattered was that the emperor was tired of Concubine De, and Lin Baolin gave the emperor an excuse to punish Concubine De severely.
.
She could see this little plot, and there was no reason why the emperor couldn't see it.
This also shows that the emperor was not even half sincere towards Lin Baolin.
Xin Ruozhi is right, in the harem and as a concubine, who is not the emperor's pawn?
"I feel so sorry for the princess." Wen Xiaotu suddenly sighed.
Bi Xin said: "Master loves Concubine De's daughter. I'm afraid Concubine De will hate you very much!"
Wen Xiaotu chuckled and said: "Now Concubine De hates Lin Baolin the most."
Lin Baolin was just a small deviation in the palace of Concubine De, but suddenly she bit Concubine De. Concubine De also had a mean temper and had learned a lot from Lin Baolin, otherwise Lin Baolin would not have risked disfigurement.
This game.
At dusk, Xiao Yuanbao ran in to report that the emperor had turned over Lin Baolin's brand again tonight.
Since her appearance recovered, Lin Baolin's favor has been increasing day by day. Because she can't sleep with her, Lin Baolin is the one who sleeps with her the most. Secondly, Lu Chongyi is occasionally summoned once or twice, but Xin Ruozhi has never been summoned since she took over the palace affairs.
Fortunately, it seems to have become a thing of yesterday.
This dog emperor really likes the new and hates the old.
"Everyone in the harem now says that the emperor pities weak women. You were harmed many times before, so you were favored by the emperor. Now that Lin Baolin is almost disfigured, it is a blessing in disguise, and the emperor pities you even more." Hongguo reported the gossip in the harem,
His face was very unhappy.
Do you pity weak women? The dog emperor is not that kind!
Grandma Jin Ou on the side looked a little worried, "Lin Baolin is becoming more and more favored. It is better for the queen to take measures early."
Wen Xiaotu glanced at Jin Ou suspiciously, "What should I do? Lin Baolin and I have no grudges!"
Aunt Jin Ou hesitated for a moment, then she whispered: "Your Majesty is pregnant and cannot accept your favor. For the long term, would you consider consolidating your favor?"
A strategy to maintain favor? Wen Xiaotu frowned: "Isn't that what grandma means?"
Hong Guo, who was standing by the side, also frowned.
Bi Xin was confused: What does that mean? Which one does it mean?? She looked left and right, why did everyone else look thoughtful?
Grandma Jin Ou hurriedly lowered her head: "I know that the empress does not want to do such a thing, but Lin Baolin already has the tendency to dote on you. If you don't give her favor as soon as possible, I'm afraid it will be disadvantageous for you in the future."
Bi Xin showed a look of surprise: "Aunty, do you want your empress to support Jiang Cairen or Cui Cainv?"
Wen Xiaotu had a caring look on his face: My child, can you be any more stupid?
Aunt Jin Ou glanced at Bi Xin lovingly, and then said: "Miss Bi Xin's idea is indeed a method. However, we have several high-quality palace maids in Changyi Palace, so why bother looking far away?
?”
Wen Xiaotu’s black line: That’s exactly what it means!
Hongguo showed a bit of displeasure: "Mommy, stop talking!" - Asking the empress to recommend maids to the emperor's pillow, this made the empress even more upset than supporting Jiang and Cui!
Aunt Jin Ou said: "This slave is also considering the long-term interests of the empress. Xue Mo and Yu Zhui are both good-looking people."
"Okay!" Wen Xiaotu raised his hand and said, it's obvious that Grandma Jin'ou has some small calculations. Isn't the jade pendant the person Jin'ou brought?
"Luo Meiren, Jiang Cairen, and Cui Cainv have not yet slept with each other. Do you think that the pretty maids in the palace will be better than the ladies raised in official families?!" Wen Xiaotu looked at Jin Ou coldly,
"I have some thoughts, so I'd better put them aside!"
Grandma Jin Ou knelt down and said, "I have no selfish intentions! I just saw that Xue Mo was loyal to the empress, so..."
Wen Xiaotu flicked his sleeves and said, "I'm tired, mama, please step aside."
Seeing Wen Zhaoyi's cold and solemn expression, Grandma Jin Ou felt regretful. If she had known this, why would she have carried the jade pendant... Grandma Jin Ou kowtowed, lowered her head and left.
Wen Xiaotu then ordered Hongguo: "Take the jade pendant to the back hall to serve it." - So as not to wander around the front hall and do things that irritate my mother.
