Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 219 Aftermath (1)

   It took a few days for Queen Qiao to know the "good thing" that Empress Dowager Zhao had done. His face changed with anger!

   On the first day of the new year, Emperor Yongjia came to Jiaofangdian to stay overnight.

   It is rare to have free time, so Emperor Yongjia explained the matter one by one. Queen Qiao couldn't hold back, and her anger broke through her dignified and self-sufficient mask: "Does the queen mother see that A Jing has a direct son?"

   This is too harsh to say!

  Emperor Yongjia's face sank, and he looked at Queen Qiao: "Queen be careful!"

Queen Qiao was used to being modest and forbearing (counseling) on ​​weekdays, and she couldn't bear it when it came to her children. She sneered and said, "Yes, the concubine, just shut up. When the day is bullied, the concubine and the concubine will shut up. Jing and his wife also endured silently, and will never say a word. So that the emperor will not be embarrassed!"

   In this matter, the Queen Mother Zhao really didn't care.

  Emperor Yongjia had to patiently appease Queen Qiao: "I have dealt with it properly. If I don't tell you, even you won't know about it."

   "As for the queen mother, I also said it. From today, the queen mother will never interfere in the affairs between the young couple."

   At least, before the child in Lu Mingyu's belly is born, the Queen Mother Zhao will not trouble Lu Mingyu again.

   Queen Qiao didn't say a word, her eyes flashed with disbelief.

Emperor Yongjia coughed and said again: "I have already promised my mother that the Qin family will be banned from the bedroom for two months. In addition, the Qin family has given birth to the fourth prince, and it is really not very decent to be reduced to Jieyu. After a while, Find an excuse, let her restore the concubine position!"

  Queen Joe: "..."

Ha ha!

   Having such a mother-in-law on the stall is a blood mold for eight lifetimes!

   Queen Qiao replied expressionlessly: "What the emperor said is."

  The Son of Heaven made his promises and issued an imperial decree to punish the Qin family. After only a month, he changed his mind. It really doesn't look good when it comes out. Therefore, Queen Qiao had to come forward and "talk" to Qin's family, and he "reluctantly" responded.

  In order for Queen Qiao to sing this play together, Emperor Yongjia had to be kind and relieved: "My mother is at this age, and occasionally she is confused. I am a son, and you are a daughter-in-law, so I can only let it go."

   "Speaking of which, Ah Jing also makes me look at it differently."

   "The queen mother rewarded the palace servants to go to the Lu Mansion. He was lucky. Not only did he confiscated it, but he immediately sent the person to my Wenhua Hall. As soon as the whole story was told, he threw this hot potato to me."

   "I was also afraid that my mother would remember this in her heart, and it would be embarrassing for the grandparents and grandchildren to meet in the future, so I gave way to Qin."

   As soon as Li Jing was mentioned, Queen Qiao's face softened: "The emperor relieved A Jing, and the concubine thanked the emperor."

  Emperor Yongjia smiled and said, "Ajing is not only your son, I am his biological father. I have nothing to say about cleaning up the mess for him."

   Queen Qiao calmed down a little and said slowly: "How the emperor intends to arrange the Qin family, you might as well talk to the concubine."

Emperor Yongjia hinted a few words implicitly: "The matter in the harem should have been decided by the queen. Without Qin's company, the mother is always unhappy. The queen is the most filial. There's no reason to."

   Queen Qiao nodded, indicating that she understood.

  …

When Li Jing entered the Jiaofang Hall at noon the next day, Queen Qiao had to scold her son: "...How can you keep hiding such a big thing? Your grandmother makes things difficult for you, you should tell this palace immediately. Let this palace take care of you. Go around!"

  Li Jing said: "I can't bear to be wronged by Xiaoyu, and I can't bear to be angry for my mother."

   Queen Qiao's nose was sour, and her eyes became hot.

   Empress Dowager Zhao never liked her daughter-in-law. Not looking for an opportunity to stab her is fine. Even if she went to Shouning Palace, she might not be able to protect her son.

   Without waiting for Queen Qiao to suffer, Li Jing said with a smile: "It's so good now. If the royal father comes forward, and the royal grandmother is not happy, I can't continue to make trouble."

   Queen Qiao sighed and told Li Jing that Emperor Yongjia had responded to Empress Dowager Zhao.

  Li Jing was not surprised at all: "I guessed that there would be such an event." After a pause, he whispered: "This matter appeases the imperial grandmother, in exchange for half a year of peace, it is also worth it."

  As Empress Dowager Zhao, it's really easy to block Li Jing and his wife.

   Queen Qiao sighed: "That's true. Ben Gong has already promised your father and emperor to sing a good show together and restore Qin's concubine position first. After a while, let her out of the palace."

   Qin's company by the Empress Dowager Zhao's side, fanning the flames from time to time, is really annoying.

   But without the Qin family, the Empress Dowager Zhao is even more difficult to deal with.

   Mother and son were gossiping, and Queen Qiao suddenly said, "Ajing, you and your father are much closer than before."

  Li Jing's eyes flashed slightly, and he smiled lightly: "I used to be too cautious and didn't dare to get close to the father. In fact, between father and son, this is how we should get along. I used to think too much."

   Queen Qiao smiled with relief: "Yes, this palace is also looking forward to you and the emperor and his son."

  …

   A few days later, when everyone went to Shouning Palace to say goodbye, Queen Qiao opened her mouth to plead with Emperor Yongjia in public: "Qin swears occasionally, and the emperor punishes him. Now that it's been so long, it's time to calm down."

   "My mother is not accompanied by the Qin family. These days are a little unhappy and the phoenix is ​​unwell. For the sake of the mother and the phoenix, please be kind to the emperor, restore Qin's concubine position, and let Qin leave the palace earlier."

  Emperor Yongjia deliberately said with a stern face: "A word from the Son of Heaven is as heavy as a thousand pounds. How can it be changed in the morning and evening."

   Concubine Meng Gui and Concubine Su snorted in their hearts at the same time.

   Such an obvious play, it's impossible to think that they are fools.

   Queen Qiao said warmly: "It's not a major matter in the court. This matter in the harem is such a serious change in the court order. The emperor's power should give the concubine a face, and agree to the concubine!"

   Emperor Yongjia then reluctantly nodded his head: "Well, since the queen is interceding for Qin, I can't refute the queen's face. However, this is only one time, and the next one will not be an example!"

   Concubine Meng Gui and Concubine Su sighed in unison.

   Empress Dowager Zhao was so pleased, and Queen Qiao was much more pleasing to the eye. It was rare to open her mouth to praise Queen Qiao once: "The Queen is the most filial."

   Queen Qiao endured her dismay and replied with a smile: "It's right for a daughter-in-law to be filial to her mother."

   On the afternoon of the same day, Queen Qiao issued a decree to restore Qin Jieyu's position as concubine.

   Concubine Qin, who had lost weight after being confined for more than a month, almost burst into tears while holding the phoenix decree.

  The fourth prince came soon, and said to Concubine Qin with a look of joy: "In more than half a month, the concubine will be able to leave the palace."

   Concubine Qin wiped her tears with her sleeve and whispered, "You don't have to wait that long. Just watch, in a few days, your imperial grandmother will find a way to let me out of the palace to meet people."

  The Fourth Prince: "..."
