The rebirth of a concubine: Gong Du will become the Queen Mother

When this news came to Xiangying Residence, Jiang Shiying was holding a cup of lychee ice cream and eating it deliciously.

"First, the imperial concubine called Yi Meiren a dog, and then today, the imperial concubine kicked Yi Meiren out of the Mingguang Palace." A Yuan looked at her with bright eyes: "Now, in the entire harem, Yi Meiren is The person the beauty hates the most must be the imperial concubine, right?"

Jiang Shiying was about to nod when she heard her say something else: "Oh, by the way, there's also the matter of the spices when Beauty Yi first entered the palace."

"About the spices -" Jiang Shiying murmured, remembering what she felt was strange at the time.

She shook her head slowly: "Now, the person that Yi Mei hates the most is the imperial concubine. The one she wants to deal with the most, but she may not be serious about it."

It’s the end of June in a blink of an eye.

For more than a month, the drama between the imperial concubine and the beautiful woman was dizzying for everyone in the garden.

Whenever the concubines and concubines went to Mingxiu Pavilion to pay their respects on the tenth day, the two of them would bicker and quarrel.

Everyone said that the imperial concubine and the beauty were completely matched.

The queen was even more happy. She sent people to Chaoyunxuan every two days to deliver things to Yi Meiren.

Jiang Shiying looked at it, but felt that there were two violations.

The confrontation between the two people was a little too deliberate.

She especially remembered that when she first entered the palace, the imperial concubine tried to match the probe a few times, then stopped and pretended to be "good sisters in the harem".

The imperial concubine looks domineering, but she is actually quite aware of current affairs. Why are you fighting like this with Yi Meiren now?

Before Jiang Shiying could investigate further, the queen fell ill in July.

Because of the queen's illness, Lu Zhaolin rarely took the initiative to enter Mingxiu Pavilion.

"I have met your Majesty."

The queen tried to stand up and salute, but Lu Zhaolin held her shoulders down: "Lie down well."

The queen lay back down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Lu Zhaolin looked at her pale face and dark lips, and frowned: "Why did she suddenly become ill when she was fine? What did the imperial doctor say?"

The queen lowered her eyes and sounded like she was sighing: "Since Yongning left, my body has not been very good. The imperial doctor said that this time it was because of the cold that she suddenly had an attack."

Hearing her mention Yongning, Lu Zhaolin felt uncomfortable. He turned to look at the picture screen standing beside him: "Who examined the queen?"

Huaping replied respectfully: "It's Judge Liu."

"He's not bad." Lu Zhaolin knew in his heart that Liu Yuanjian was the empress, and even if he pointed out someone else's information about her, she might not believe it, so he just said: "Let him Serve with care."

Huaping lowered his head and said "Promise".

The queen said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Judge Liu has always been diligent."

At this point, she coughed twice, and after she recovered, she continued: "I will have to take good care of my body for a while. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of the many affairs in the palace for a while."

Lu Zhaolin was a little surprised when he heard this. What does the queen mean implicitly in her words, is she going to delegate power? Doesn’t the sun come out from the west today?

"Then what do you mean?"

"I'm thinking, why don't you let the noble concubine take charge of the palace on your behalf, and concubine Jing help manage it?"

At this point, the queen looked at his face, saw that he frowned, and added: "The reason why she didn't mention Concubine Chen was because she was young and had never taken care of things, so she was not as stable as Concubine Chen and Concubine Jing. "

"No one is born with the ability to govern. You will learn how to do it as you learn." Lu Zhaolin said calmly.

The queen's hands hidden in her sleeves squeezed the quilt tightly, but she smiled on her lips: "I also thought that these troublesome things would be left to the noble concubine and Jing Concubine, so that the concubine Chen can be more relaxed."

Lu Zhaolin glanced at her with unclear meaning: "You have a good intention. However, there is no reason to bypass the first-class concubine and let the second-class concubine take charge of the affairs. It's outrageous to say it out loud. I thought you, the queen, couldn't see it. Fuck her."

By the end of his speech, his tone had become a little heavy.

The queen felt depressed in her heart, but she said: "How could it be? My concubine had a sudden thought. In this case, the noble concubine will be in charge, and the concubine Chen will assist?"

Lu Zhaolin shook his head: "The two of them have the same status, they only hold the same power in the palace, why bother to separate them."

More importantly, he could also take this opportunity to see what Ah Ying was capable of.

The queen coughed twice before saying: "I listen to your majesty. I am also worried that if the two sisters disagree, I am afraid they will easily quarrel."

Lu Zhaolin raised his eyebrows: "Ah Ying is not an unreasonable person."

The queen gritted her teeth and said "yes".

After sitting for less than half a stick of incense, Lu Zhaolin said, "You have a good rest," and stood up to leave.

As soon as the door closed, the queen spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Empress!" Huaping covered her mouth, not daring to let her voice be heard outside - Your Majesty hasn't gone far yet.

The queen wiped the blood on her lips with her sleeve, shook her head slowly and said, "I'm fine. I want to see how long he can protect that bitch Concubine Chen."

···

But it’s Lu Zhaolin’s side.

After leaving Mingxiu Hall, he was going back to Mingguang Hall.

After walking a few steps, I changed my mind - "Go to Xiangyingju".

Xiangying Curie.

Jiang Shiying just woke up after a break.

She was too lazy to get up, so she lay on the bed talking to Qiu Yu and Hongying.

Suddenly, the inner door was pushed open.

Lu Zhaolin smiled as soon as he came in: "I thought you were still awake."

"Your Majesty is here." Jiang Shiying sat up and yawned slightly: "I'm awake, but I still want to be lazy."

Lu Zhaolin walked to the bed and sat down: "I'm afraid you won't be too lazy later."

"Oh?" Jiang Shiying put her head on his shoulder, held his fingers with her left hand, and wrapped her right hand around his arm, asking, "What do you mean by your Majesty's words?"

Lu Zhaolin said: "The queen is ill. I plan to let you and the concubine take over the affairs of the harem together. Do you have confidence?"

Jiang Shiying raised her head and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will do my best and not cause any trouble or embarrassment for you."

Lu Zhaolin pinched her fingers: "Don't be too stressed, I will take care of everything for you."

Jiang Shiying smiled and put her head back on his shoulder: "With your Majesty's words, I feel relieved."

Lu Zhaolin laughed: "You!"

The two laughed for a while, and then heard him say: "If you are not sure, just ask Yao Xingde. He knows as much as the queen about these things in the palace. Or ask the queen mother to ask, it is also fine."

Jiang Shiying said: "Don't worry, I am a thick-skinned person. From tomorrow on, I will stay in the Queen Mother's Anhe Pavilion every day, begging the Queen Mother to teach me."

Lu Zhaolin laughed out loud: "If the Queen Mother annoys you and kicks you out, I won't care."

Jiang Shiying gave him an angry look: "The Queen Mother doesn't know how to do that."

Lu Zhaolin was originally going to rest in Xiangyingju.

Before dinner, someone from the Mingguang Hall came to send a message, saying that someone from the previous court wanted to see him.
