Chapter 212 Qiluo Hate

Zuo Zhaoyi's summoning was delivered by the news that Ji Shen stayed in the prayer hall to accompany Sun Gui and the second daughter who was born a few days ago. Zuo Zhaoyi also knew that Mu Biwei now regarded Princess Xiping as the pearl in her palm, and refused to wait for leisure places under the banner of taking care of the princess. Therefore, after the autumn came to the door, there was no nonsense at all. He smiled and said, "Congratulations to Mu Qingyi, He Ximu Qingyi. This time, the noble concubine and Shunhua have caught up with the difficult labor. Shunhua has unfortunately passed away. There are not many high-ranking concubines in the palace. Now there is another one. Zuo Zhaoyi invited the empress dowager, thinking There have been some time since Mu Qingyi entered the palace. She has always served Her Majesty with all her heart and is the direct daughter of General Mu, so I want to invite Mu Qingyi to go to the Hualuo Hall for a talk.

Mu Biwei was reminded by Nie Yuansheng early. Of course, she would not be moved by her so easily: "Since it is the meaning of the Empress Dowager, how dare I interrupt? Although Zuo Zhaoyi is kind, I dare not go over it.

Shengqiu didn't expect that he would be rejected if he pointed so directly at Jinfeng's matter. His face couldn't help but stiffen. Then he smiled and said, "Mu Qingyi doesn't have to worry too much. Zuo Zhaoyi also got the decree of the Empress Dowager. He inspected one or two from the people who served his majesty and then determined who Jin was. It's not that Qingyi should cross-examination anything."

"If so, I dare not refuse." Mu Bi sighed slightly, and then she was relieved. Unexpectedly, she changed her words, "It's just that Your Majesty handed over Princess Xiping to me to take care, but I dare not leave privately."

"Qingyi laughed and heard that the good aunt next to Qingyi was an experienced person. What else is there to worry about when an aunt looks at Qingyi?" Yuqiu reacted very quickly to this excuse and said with a smile, "What's more, this is the palace of Jique. Everything is all right, but it's just a moment away."

Mu Bi smiled faintly: "The holy order is not contrary. What's more, as you know, Princess Xiping has not surrendered in full month, and she is a princess. Her body is inevitably weaker, but I dare not leave for too long."

As soon as she finished speaking, as if to prove this, she hurriedly ran in. Without looking at Qiu, she said urgently, "Qingyi, Your Highness is crying again. The good aunt can't coax her, so that the maidservant asks Qingyi to go there immediately!"

Mu Bi stood up without thinking and took a step as if she remembered that the autumn was still there. She apologized, "Qiu Niang, look at this..."

"Mu Qingyi is also worried about Her Royal Highness, just go." Qiu Bin said politely. At least from her face, she couldn't see her anger. Mu Bi slightly praised the background of the Qu family. Seeing that she had no intention of rising up, she winced at her and moved over and said, "I'll send a gift to Sister Qiu."

When she said this, she couldn't stay any longer. After all, she calmed down before she got up and said lightly, "Thank you, Mu Qingyi, for your hospitality."

"Where, Qiu Niang is easy to go, but I'm going to see the princess." Mu Bi nodded with a slight smile. Without waiting for her to reply, she turned around and walked to the inner room.

Because Nie Yuansheng said that Qu was not a despicable person, Mu Biwei only said that the matter was settled. Less than an hour after Shengqiu left, the door of Fenghe Courtyard was knocked again. Lv Liang came to report that he came back again and brought something for Princess Xiping.

Mu Biwei just watched Ah Shan help Princess Xiping change her clothes and frowned slightly when he heard the words. Ah Shan said to Lu Liang, "I took her up and put it in the farthest room here... and said that Qingyi fell asleep."

"I just said that I have to take care of the princess, so I can't leave the wind lotus courtyard. Don't go to bed so early now. Don't be an uncareful name." Mu Biwei stopped Lv Liang and said, "I'll go and have a look. I don't think she can find any new tricks."

When she arrived at the front hall, she had already served tea. She stood by side with her head down and hands without saying anything. She had already known this little maid's clever Mu Biwei. She was about to have a greeting with the beautiful autumn, but her eyes flashed and saw a person behind her, wearing a maid's clothes, long release, and fell on her cheeks to cover her appearance. Originally, she lowered her head. I didn't really look at it, but when I heard the sound of Mu Bi coming in, I suddenly raised my head and looked at her!

Mu Bi was slightly stunned, and then said to Wanyi, "You go down first."

"The Empress Zuo Zhaoyi came in person, which was really glorious." After dressing down, Mu Biwei sat down in the main position and said in a low voice.

At this time, he also changed his position with Qu Shi and stood respectfully behind Qu Shi. Qu Shi said calmly, "I take the liberty to come here to disturb Mu Qingyi." I didn't care about her rudeness at all.

Mu Biwei looked at her calm and resolute expression, and a sense of vigilance suddenly rose in her heart, but her face remained calm: "Is the Empress Zuo Zhaoyi here to visit Princess Xiping? Unfortunately, the princess has just fallen asleep. Ah Shan has coaxed her for a long time, but she should not be disturbed.

As soon as she opened her mouth, she said that she was unwilling to let Qu see Princess Xiping. After all, Qu frowned and said calmly, "If you don't say secret words in front of the Ming people, if Mu Qingyi can become the whole palace, I will definitely be paid a lot!"

"Since Zuo Zhaoyi has said this, I will come straight to the point." Mu Bi said cheerfully, "I was originally the eldest daughter of the third-grade master. If it hadn't been for He Ronghua's original slander, I would have married the son-in-law carefully selected by the elders to be the master of a house. Even if I entered the palace, it was impossible for me to call myself a slave and maid all day long. The left and right prime ministers had to have children to be promoted. Of course, I won't I'm looking forward to Jiang Shunhua's accident, but Princess Xiping was handed over to me by Her Majesty herself. I can't let go of such an opportunity!"

"I know!" Qu nodded and said simply, "Sun's promotion to You Zhaoyi this time has become a forde, and the two Zhaoyi under the back position are full. I can't guarantee that the ninth concubine has a Tang in addition to Longhui. You can choose whatever you want!"

She said that the harem's tone was like a vegetable and radish, which made Mu Biwei suffocate, and then smiled and said, "Zuo Zhaoyi is really generous, but this person is not right and unspeakable. I'm not a person who walks the wrong way."

"If you don't believe in this palace, I can set up a document." Qu said without hesitation.

Mu Bi shook her head slightly and smiled and said, "I won't talk falsely with Zuo Zhaoyi, but the most difficult thing since I entered the palace is the status of this female official, and it is difficult to be promoted to the palace concubine. Otherwise, according to your majesty's favor, why may Zuo Zhaoyi become the fastest person in the palace so far?"

Qu Shi heard the meaning of her words and couldn't help but be speechless for a moment - Mu Biwei's pet is not under the He family. More importantly, she can't wear the humble hat. Unlike He's so fast, she can't even look down on the previous dynasty. The shepherd family is not an old family, but five or six generations are all famous people with surnames in history books. If From the former Wei Dynasty, the first herdsman who was sent to the northwest has been an official for a hundred years now. Of course, He Qu and Gao, an old family that has been in several dynasties, can't be compared, and now there are only a few people left in the herdsmen, but they still belong to the scholar clan.

The background is uncriticed and satisfactory. As long as Mu Biwei rushes over the status of a female official, she does not need the help of Qu at all. Of course, the rear position is suspended, but the latter position is impossible for the Qu family to give up. In this case, why did Mu Biwei hand over Princess Xiping?

Qu was silent for a moment and said, "Would you like your younger brother to marry the Qu family?"

The Qu girl has always been precious. When Qu said this, she made a great determination. Even Shengqiu was surprised, but Mu Biwei listened and said without even thinking about it: "My young brother is simple and blessed, which is not enough to match the lady of a famous family, but he has failed to live up to Zuo Zhaoyi's good intentions!"

Hearing her refusal, the autumn suddenly widened her eyes! Even Qu was surprised!

It must be known that it is difficult for the Qu family girl to marry. Most importantly, if Mu Bicheng marries the Qu family girl, it means that the shepherd family has one more help in the court. Among other things, if there is another incident such as the loss of Xuelan Pass, the Qu family must protect the shepherd, which is no more important for the thin herdsman!

But Qu didn't know that although Mu Biwei had a bad impression of her young and naive half-brother Mu Bicheng, she hated Xu from the bottom of her heart. In this case, although she was not unfavorable to Mu Bicheng, she would never want to see him marry a famous girl - just the identity of the little He family, Ruo Mu Bi If the city marries a daughter of the Qu family, does the housekeeper still have the right to have a long house?

What's more, Mu Biwei early learned from Nie Yuansheng and Ji Shen's words that Ji Shen intended to change the court situation and reuse Mu Qi after the reign... The reason why Mu Qi was selected in the Wenwu of the Manchu Dynasty was not because of the evaluation before the death of the late emperor, it was not that Mu Qijiu was in the northwest and did not have much bad advice to Ji Shen, and the most important thing was with the court. Are all parties involved?

With such good conditions, how can Mu Biwei care about an in-law of the Qu family?

Although there are many benefits of marriage with the Qu family, one is dependent on others, and the other is self-reliance. If you choose someone with a little bone, you will not choose the former.

What the harem woman wanted was nothing more than the middle position of the palace and the wealth of the mother's family outside the palace. Neither of these two could move Mu Biwei. After her long silence, Mu Biwei was thinking about sending guests like this, but slowly heard her say, "You are different from He and others. I really can't come up with anything to impress you now, but... ...Mu Qingyi, although you may not be willing to enter the palace, you will be favored when you first enter the palace. Do you know the days when you fall out of favor or even the unfavored people?

Mu Biwei listened and said, and came. Sure enough, Nie Yuansheng said that she wanted to raise Princess Xiping, but now she even used the art of emerciliation. She said, "The Empress came from a noble background, loved by the Empress Dowager, and she was in the position of Zuo Zhaoyi, which was beyond my reach."

"You also said that it is the Empress Dowager who loves me, not Your Majesty." Although Qu's tone is slow, it is not sad. Obviously, she decided to touch people with emotion, but she disdains to help her grief with tears. However, it is difficult to hide the loneliness and sadness in her word. "I have known that I will marry your majesty since I was a child, so since I was about ten years old, the Empress Dowager often called me to the palace to get along with your majesty. For your majesty's Sex. Son, I dare not say that I know more than Nie Yuansheng, but I am not strange!"

Hearing her suddenly mention Nie Yuansheng, although Mu Biwei's face remained unchanged, she was shocked!

Fortunately, Qu just compared Nie Yuansheng and did not doubt them. He continued: "At that time, I didn't get along well with Your Majesty, but it's just not bad. Your Majesty regarded me as a playmate, just like the accompaniment around him. In fact, my second brother is indeed one of Your Majesty's companions! Your Majesty has never had a love for a man or a woman in this palace, which I know very well. In fact, I may not have any feelings for your majesty that he does not marry. This sentence is not afraid to listen to Qingyi!"

Mu Bi frowned slightly.

"But I still entered the palace, because Mu Qingyi is so smart that I don't need to say anything more!" Qu Shi said, "I just want to tell you that I have been in the palace for more than two years, and now it is July, that is two and a half years. The number of times your majesty has spent the night in the Hualuo Hall is three times!"

She said slowly, "As for the service of your majesty... just once!"

"If it is said that I still have expected something in the past, it has faded in the past two years. I am not to blame your majesty. Some people in the world like beautiful appearance, and some people value Gao Hua's demeanor. I happen to be not the one he likes, so I always take good care of the palace affairs and have no intention of embarrassing anyone." Qu raised her head and stared at Mu Biwei's eyes. "But... the loneliness in the palace, you are still loved by your majesty. I'm afraid it's difficult to understand - I only want a child to accompany you. Your majesty doesn't like me. There is no other way but to raise others, but Mu Qingyi, you have to be spoiled by your majesty, and so When you are young, you will definitely have your own flesh and blood in the future... Why can't you complete this time?"

Qu Shi said the last sentence, and his tone did not sob, but his expression was stained with a layer of sadness.

Mu Biwei was silent for a long time before she slowly shook her head in Qu's expectative gaze: "Your Majesty, your majesty is young, and there will be more emperors in the harem. Princess Xiping personally asked me to take care of it. At the beginning, Jiang Shunhua suddenly gave birth in Chengguang Hall. Your Majesty once ordered me and He Ronghua to enter the delivery room to take care of it, because Ping Le The palace is far away from Jique Palace, so I'm a step late... So I can't give the princess to you.

"The future emperors are different from Xiping." The expectation in Qu's eyes gradually turned into disappointment and sadness. She closed her eyes with a wry smile and hung a drop of tears from her cheeks. Qu said weakly, "I am not the one who is waiting to force others to separate their flesh and blood!"

"Not everyone has the blessing of Sun Gui." Mu Biwei insisted, "Maybe you can ask the Empress Dowager to raise a prince in the future!"

Qu sighed, wiped away the tears from his cheeks gracefully, but smiled: "Jiang Shunhua's such an accident may not happen to others... What's more, the example has been opened, how can there be so many accidents in this palace? Moreover, I raised the emperor's heirs just to find something to do. It is inevitable that the prince will have many things to do when he grows up. I really want a princess!"

Mu Bi squeezed her lips slightly: "Please forgive me for not helping the Empress!"
