Chapter 24 Two Concubines
Since you enter the palace, of course, you have to say hi to the empress dowager first. Surprisingly, the last time she entered the palace, the empress dowager avoided it, but this time she actually said that she was slightly sick. However, after several people left, Yuer said that the Empress Dowager was in good health at all, but she had been in a bad mood and didn't want to see anyone recently, and even her most favored family was difficult to see her.
This should also be said to Zhou Huaiyi...
Thinking of this, Wei Fuyan had a heart attack. Zhou Huaiyi had no news after he left. She didn't even know whether he had entered the palace or not and where he had gone.
consciously shaking his head to calm down, Wei Fuyan said to Sheng Qian and Yuer, "Let's go and say good to the queen!"
Zhou Huaiyi and Sheng Qian's biological mother died early, and both of them were raised by the empress herself. Zhou Huaiyi usually goes out with her master, so she is a little unfamiliar with the queen, but for Sheng Qian, who has no impression of her biological mother, the queen is his biological mother.
The prince was abolished, and the queen lived a simple and kept a low profile. Is it too much to plant flowers and trees in the yard and climb the wooden ladder to prune and cut flowers and trees?
Sheng Qian also seemed surprised and hurried forward and said, "Mother, I'll come!"
The queen seemed to be scared and her body shook. Wei Fuyan hurried forward, but saw the queen grabbing the flowers and trees to stabilize her body, and then lowered her head and glanced at them indifferently.
The queen is old, but she can still see the charming style of her youth, especially those eyes. Even if she is only indifferent, she can see the spirit of the people behind her eyes. Wei Fuyan has already learned to distinguish his joys and anger from Zhou Huaiyi's look, but it is not difficult to come to the queen.
"Mother, just let the slaves do these things. What if you climb so high and fall down!"
Wei Fuyan immediately tightened his heart and climbed down and fell down. No one usually cares about this kind of words, but for the queen who was abolished by the prince, this sentence was a little insinuated. Sheng Qian no longer had no intention, but one of the people who was abolished the prince was Sheng Qian's brother Zhou Huaiyi. If the queen thought more, it would be troublesome!
After she stabilized her figure, the queen let go of her hand. It seemed that the newly repaired branches cut her fingers. She elegantly put her right index finger in her mouth for a while, and then wrapped it in a silk handkerchief and walked down steadily on the wooden ladder. Sheng Qian hurriedly held her, but she smiled and said to Sheng Qian, "If you climb high, you should naturally stand firmly and stand by yourself. Even if others want you to fall down, they can't move you."
Sheng Qianzhen nodded and said, "My mother's words are reasonable, but after all, it's too dangerous. Next time my mother's queen won't go so high!"
Don't go that high next time?
Wei Fuyan was frowning, but saw the queen glance over indifferently. Wei Fuyan hurriedly saluted: "I have met the queen. Please send my peace to the queen!"
The queen came forward and took her hand with a hand wrapped in a silk hand and said, "No gift! Now people are really beautiful when they look closely. No wonder they are fascinated. I thought that he would never settle down in his life, but I didn't know how to explain to his mother a hundred years later, but I was lucky to meet you.
The queen's tone was plain from beginning to end, but her eyes were awe-inspiring and powerful, and the mother's state of the world was only indifferent. Wei Fuyan didn't know the deep meaning of her words, but echoed and said, "It's a blessing for my concubine to serve around the prince!"
"That's true," the queen took her hand and walked into the house. As she walked, she said, "When people fight, the most important thing is to choose the right opponent. If they are not qualified to fight, the most important thing is to choose the right side. This palace is a little different from your identity, but at least now you have to rely on your will and stand on his side. This fate is much deeper than that of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law!"
There was a great intention to ask for Zhou Huai's blessing in her words. Wei Fuyan was frightened, but although her voice was not low, it was unlikely to be heard by Sheng Qian and Yuer behind her, so she had to continue to walk forward by the empress, but said, "My concubine is married to a married husband, so she should stand on the prince's side. But if the mother says that she can rely on it, she will break our palace!"
After the queen returned to her room, someone waited on her to sit down, and Wei Fuyan served aside. She only listened to the queen and did not avoid the people around her. She continued to say in a calm voice: "Where, the whole court knows that the only thing I can rely on now is Yi'er. Although there are several people in my mother's family, the crown prince is far from enough. Only Yi'er can do it, only he can."
Wei Fuyan was even more stunned. The prince had been abolished, but the queen dared to continue to openly call him "prince", even if the palace was full of people around the queen, in case it spread outside...
Sheng Qian and Yuer followed up. Sheng Qian went forward and poured tea with his own hands and said to the queen, "Mother, I heard that Princess Chai is going to hold a banquet again? What's the name this time? Another flower meeting?"
Come again? Didn't she worry about the last peony party at all?
"I don't remember much," the queen said, drinking tea indifferently. "It's about Princess Jingyu who came to feast the Moon Kingdom."
Sheng Qian asked happily, "Will the mother go or not?"
The queen glanced at Sheng Qian and her eyes were flat, but Wei Fuyan immediately felt afraid.
"Go," the queen looked at Wei Fuyan and said, "Princess Jingyu, who is the most beautiful woman in the world, should look better than the peony."
I don't know why Wei Fuyan looked at her and said, but she just bowed her head respectfully and said, but heard the queen continue to say, "If I remember correctly, Princess Jingyu wants to marry Yier than Miss Yu."
Wei Fuyan didn't know what she meant, so she just said, "Thank you for your suggestion!"
When the queen heard this, she said, "I'm tired. You can kneel down!"
Sheng Qian and Yuer naturally stayed here. Wei Fuyan came out of the queen alone, but still did not see Zhou Huaiyi.
Then it's time for her to see Concubine Tong. I don't know if the poison given to Concubine Chai has been solved, but as soon as she was led by the palace people to Concubine Tong, she saw Concubine Chai. Chai Guifei seemed to be in a good mood, but she saw her smile instantly.
"My concubine, please give my concubine Chai peace!"
Concubine Chai is a bright purple silk shirt today. She stepped forward and said, "I don't know that Princess Huai and Concubine Tong also have a friendship. Concubine Tong is sick and has to bother Princess Huai to visit her? What a great face!"
Wei Fuyan squeezed his lips and smiled, and didn't say much. He just said in his heart to recover from illness? Is it poisoned?
"It's a pity that King Huai is still sitting in Lanyuan, otherwise the Huai Wang and his wife will come together, and Concubine Tong's status in the palace will be unusual!"
Zhou Huaiyi in Lanyuan?
Wei Fuyan knew that Chai Guifei deliberately forced her to mess up. Zhou Huaiyi is in Lanyuan, and Princess Ping is also in Lanyuan. How can she not know the meaning of Chai Guifei's words?
"Concubine Tong has a holy pet to protect her body, and her status in the palace is not ordinary!" Wei Fuyan smiled and said, "Of course, it's still far from a mother like Chai Guifei, so what is Chai Guifei worried about?"
Qi Guifei didn't believe that Yu Sikou dared to tell her that she really wanted to, so she smiled and said, "Even if you are in a hurry, you can't worry about the little Tongfei! With the empress dowager and queen, and you princesses, I don't have the intention to play with Concubine Tong!"
"That's great. My concubine thought that Concubine Tong was strangely ill, so she came to have a look. Since Princess Chai was not in a hurry, she was not in a hurry to see her!"
At this time, Concubine Tong came out to invite the two of them in, so Wei Fuyan clearly saw that Chai Guifei had changed her face and just said, "Concubine Chai, please first!"
Chai Guifei narrowed her eyes and smiled, and the silver basin and jade face suddenly bloomed. Her purple sleeves gently waved in front of her, followed by Wei Fuyan, and the two entered the door one after the other.
Concubine Tong waited there in a very thick coat. Seeing them come in, she hurriedly knelt down for Chai Guifei and said, "Sister, please say good to my sister!"
Is it just a greeting? Do you need to kneel down and worship? Wei Fuyan couldn't help looking at Chai Guifei, but saw that Chai Guifei was also looking at her.
The concubines in the palace all have excellent faces. If the queen is a heroine and Chai Guifei's face is rich and noble, Concubine Tong is my pity. Tong Concubine's two almond eyes seemed to have two pool of clear water. No matter how she looked at it, she was pitiful and weak. Especially at this moment, her face was pale. Wei Fuyan felt that she was suppressed by Chai Guifei at a glance.
It's just a person from the palace. How simple is it?
"Concubine, please give my concubine Tong's best salutation!" Wei Fuyan saluted.
Only then did Chai Guifei say that she would be exempted from courtesy. Concubine Tong seemed to faint after being helped by her subordinates to get up. Chai Guifei quickly helped her and said, "Sister, you shouldn't get up! Since you are sick, you'd better go back to ** and lie down according to the doctor's instructions! Why do we two sisters need to split up?
Wei Fuyan squeezed her lips and smiled and said nothing, but after waiting for Princess Chai to take Tong back to the hospital bed with help, she said, "It has been many days since my concubine returned to Luodu, but I haven't had time to say hi to Concubine Tong. I hope you don't be surprised!"
Concubine Tong leaned weakly on the shoulder of Princess Chai and said, "Princess Huai doesn't have to be polite..."
"Thank you for not blaming me," Wei Fuyan rushed to say, "Even so, my concubine left! Wishing you good health!"
