Chapter 60 Grey Parrot

"It's useless for the Empress Dowager to pay attention to it." Nie Yuansheng said calmly, "You see that the Empress Dowager Gao couldn't do anything about the Sun family, who had no support from her mother's family and no children. Do you think she can decide the choice of the crown prince? After all, King Gaoyang can't be exiled for too long. When he returns to Yedu and Empress Dowager Wen leaves the palace, it will not be easy for her to raise the prince raised by the empress dowager without anyone who can give timely advice to the empress dowager! After the example of Sun and Bu, who else will really pay attention to the empress dowager in this palace?

Mu Biwei didn't feel a thrill!

Only heard Nie Yuansheng continue to say, "Your Majesty is young and the spring and autumn are in full bloom, but the right Eying will not live long. Now your majesty favors You Eying. It is estimated that if You Eying gives birth to a prince, she will immediately ask your majesty to make him the crown prince, and your majesty may not refuse to allow it! But what about the future? Sun and Bu in the palace have gone one after another, but it is impossible to be newcomers again. Even if there are no newcomers comparable to Sun and Bu, do you have to expect your majesty to keep thinking about You Eying? Maybe You Eying expects so much, but Mrs. Wuying County will not be so confused!"

Mu Bi was awe-hearted and couldn't help looking at the next door: "Do they want to take all the princes..."

"That's impossible!" Nie Yuansheng said, and his face became solemn. "Your Majesty has three sons now. How can you know if there will be more princes in the future? If you want to harm all the princes, will the whole court and the opposition really be dead? What's more, if the eldest son and the second son of the emperor are raised by the empress dowager, the empress dowager does not defend the wife of Wuying County, and she does not know that Right Eying's life will soon, the prince can also be harmed by them?

He said slowly, "Are you sure that You Eying is really pregnant?"

"He also said that, and now he is not sure. After all, there is an example of Bu in the palace. Although You Eying may not know about Bu, it is not surprising that she can buy an imperial doctor as her identity." Mu Bi muttered, "What are your calculations?"

Nie Yuansheng nodded and said, "There are only two direct daughters of the Su family who have left the cabinet. In addition, they are not their own flesh and blood. Even if they design to send newcomers to serve His Majesty, if they are not favored, they are not as reliable as the Empress Dowager. If they are favored, the emperor's favor is in the body, how can they know if they will eat back? I think that if Bu Shi hadn't died now, lived longer and loved her more, the Qu family may not be able to hold her. After all, there are still few people who are willing to be slaves and maidservants, especially in the palace, and they have to listen to others to make their own pawns. If such loyal subordinates are so early, Some loyal servants are not even recorded in history books.

Speaking of this, he paused and suddenly asked, "Song Xianren is also dead?"

Mu Bi was slightly shocked when she heard the words, and then woke up: "Previously, Princess Wen once said that after the Empress Dowager Gao Eleven said that it was not easy to marry King Gaoyang as a princess, it was Song Xianren who took the initiative to mention the girl of the Su family, but... The imperial concubine also said that this was not necessarily the Song family. After all, the number of children the princess asked for was counted. Then a few suitable..."

"The Su family has made a mistake and will not let it go." Nie Yuansheng said slightly, "After all, he is close to the Empress Dowager. If he rushes, he will definitely make people suspicious. Smallpox... Hey, the palace, no, the government and the opposition are worried about the safety of the two princes. Even the life and death of Princess Wen is nothing, let alone a female official?"

Mu Bi suddenly said, "The Su family took such a big circle to get rid of the Song family?"

"With the Qu family staring at each other, they can't do things carelessly." Nie Yuansheng narrowed his eyes and said, "Since the most important thing to die in the lockdown of Ganquan Palace is this Song family, I think the purpose of the Su family is her."

"But the eldest son also seems to have hurt his leg..."

Nie Yuansheng said, "The two princes are both young. Maybe Ren Yangkuan lost his proportion when he started, and there are also some... It is expected that if the Su family really intends to deal with the eldest son of the emperor, they will simply take advantage of him to kill him this time. Since he is alive, I guess the Su family has no intention of dealing with him."

Mu Biwei imagined the same. She leaned on him and exhaled and sighed, "In order to deal with the Song family, such a big deal makes us exhausted."

Nie Yuansheng smiled, stroked her hair, and said softly, "I know you must have a bad life these days... Now that I have come back to cancel the fake, let me do these things."

...............................................................................................

In the evening, Xiping came back and looked very excited. There were a few wine stains on the pink palace skirt she took to change. Before the ceremony was finished, she said happily, "Mother concubine, cousin Yuyang gave a return gift to her son and her second sister. Do you want to guess what it is?"

Mu Bi smiled and asked, "Is it a cloth tiger?"

"My son is not a three or four-year-old child now. How can he always hold a cloth tiger!" Xiping said seriously, "The mother's concubine guessed wrong, guess again?"

Her words made the master laugh. Mu Bi said shyly, "Yes, yes, Yutong is not a three- or four-year-old child. He is five years old!"

"Mom concubine, guess!" Xiping stamped his feet and said impatiently, regardless of being teased.

Listen to Xintai: "Isn't it a parrot?"

"Huh? How do you know your second sister? Xiping's proud face suddenly suffocated and asked in surprise.

Xintai turned around and explained to Mu Biwei, "Previously, I was very envious when I saw many parrots from my elder sister, but those were all colorful. I didn't think it was easy to raise. If the elder sister wanted to send me, I didn't want them."

"My cousin sent it back this time, but it's not in color." Xiping happily asked Geqing and Getian, who stayed outside the hall, to come in together. Sure enough, everyone had a bird cage in their hands, and a gray-feathered birdfinch in it. Mu Biwei asked someone to take it to look at it and said strangely, "Is this also a parrot?"

Deng Shi smiled and said, "Yes, your highness and maidservants also felt very strange after hearing that this was a parrot. Which of the parrots we have seen is not colorful and beautiful? This gray look and sparrow, with a few red hairs on its tail, is it also called a parrot? However, Princess Guangling said that this was brought by several big food merchants from the West. Dao was only found in a faraway place. A total of dozens of them were brought on the road and carefully raised to our Middle soil, and only two survived. The owner of Aiyang County bought them all of them and happened to be given to the two highnesses.

"Big food?" Mu Bi smiled and suffocated and said thoughtfully, "Wasn't the business road to the west cut off by softness in the former Wei Dynasty? Why are there still big food merchants coming here now?

"I know!" Xiping interrupted happily, "They came by sea!"

Deng smiled and said, "Your Highness has a good memory... That's exactly what the Queen said. I heard from Princess Guangling that those merchants came from the sea to Nanqi first. Some of our Dalian businessmen bought their things and then brought them to Yedu." He added, "I heard from the county magistrate that although this parrot looks inconspicuous, it is extremely smart and will not be able to speak soon!"

"Real?" Mu Biwei's mind is no longer on the parrot now. He just wants to coax Xiping and Xintai and pretend to be interested. He praised a few words about the parrots and listened to them teach the parrots to talk. It was noisy for a long time. Then he sent them down and settled down.

Two princesses were placed, they changed their clothes and bathe, and went to see Ji Wei. Then they discussed business with Ah Shan: "You Eying won't live long. The re-elected imperial doctor also said that there is no medicine but Di Yejia. Do you think... Now that the Guangling Palace suddenly has a pair of parrots from the big food, is this the Qu family's plan?"

Ashan pondered, "This wild Jia originally came from the Great Food, and it is rare in the Middle Earth. It can be said to be extinct. The amazing and beautiful person like the Duke of Linyi did not get it before the death of his eldest son, so he could only give it to Nie Zikai to think about it! It's all because the business road was cut off after the decline of the former Wei Dynasty... I didn't expect these big cannibals to think of the sea road..."

Mu Bi said in a low voice: "Since you can bring the parrot here, Di Yega can also bring it here naturally! What does it mean that the Qu family sent these two parrots to Xiping and Xintai?

"The maidservant thought that the Su family is now calm on the surface, and secretly doesn't know how to find the bottom Yejia in the yellow spring. It's not a secret that Your Highness went to celebrate the birthday of the county magistrate of Aoyang County. Previously, in order to choose a good gift for the county owner, didn't you specially go to the Jinse Hall to ask for an order?" A Shan said, "I'm afraid it's to remind You Eying of the hope of Di Yejia?"

Mu Bi condensed for a moment, nodded with a complicated look and sighed, "What a Qu family!"

......................................................................................

"Does the Qu family want to be a good person?" He was also surprised to hear about the origin of the two gray parrots.

Mu Bi took a sip of mung bean soup and said with a sneer, "Listen to the origin of those two parrots! The big food merchant came from the sea!"

He was stunned and said, "That's nothing. It's impossible for them to do business only once? Even if people and boats have left now, how can we not leave a message or something, which means that they won't come after the New Year? What's more, something like Djega... may not have brought parrots to sell when they brought them? Wasn't it brought to our Middle-earth that the merchants brought to Emperor Wei? If there is a palace in Nanqi, the Su family may not be able to get it through the Empress Dowager..."

"You have always been smart, but this time you are also confused." Mu Bi frowned slightly and whispered, "Where was the foundation of the Su family before? Why did you come to Yedu again?

He suddenly covered his mouth and said, "Nanqi!"

"If it is before the smallpox in Ganquan Palace, the Su family can also tell the empress dowager and His Majesty clearly about this matter and send someone to Nanqi to find Diyejia." Mu Bi sneered and said, "But now... I'm afraid that the matter of Ganquan Palace, on the surface, Zuo Zhaoyi not only lost his palace power again, but also was slapped by His Majesty in public, which can be said to be a disgraces! But secretly there is the handle of the Su family, waiting for the Su family to send people to Nanqi! At that time, the Su family will not say anything about You Eying, which is to collude with Nanqi and want to fight back! Speaking of this, then this crime of murdering the imperial heirs, even the empress dowager, the imperial concubine, and even your majesty... Hey!"
