Quick wear is not a cannon fodder

Master Mei thought he could defeat Master Mei, but Master Mei's words actually defeated him.

Mr. Mei Er was right. If he insisted on breaking the pot, it would be bad for the second wife, but he wouldn't get a penny, which was not what he wanted to see.

So at that moment, he said reluctantly: "Okay, ten thousand taels is ten thousand taels. I hope you can help me a little when you become rich in the future. Is that okay? After all, I am in this situation for the sake of my empress. You can't use all the birds and hide the bow."

Seeing that he agreed, Mr. Mei Er couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Mr. Mei would insist on fifty thousand taels and talk nonsense outside if he didn't give it. And neither of these two options was what he wanted to see. of.

Seeing that he accepted ten thousand taels now, he was naturally relieved, so he asked Mr. Mei to help him a little when they got rich in the future, and naturally he didn't refuse. At first, they didn't know when they would get rich, so how about agreeing first? I don’t want to talk about it anymore in the future! Secondly, if you are really prosperous and Dafang is very poor, you can give him a little charity. After all, we are brothers. If you don't give him a little, others will say that your family is too mean and you can't afford it for that little money. Build such a reputation.

Because Mr. Mei agreed, the two of them found a time to go to the palace and let Concubine Mei bear witness.

Concubine Mei couldn't help but feel disgusted when she saw that Mr. Mei had really started to cause trouble after the old lady passed away. She secretly thought that this Mr. Mei had bullied her and her family like that back then, but now that she was a beloved concubine, she would continue to be bullied by him. It's not that he hasn't taken over yet, otherwise she would have dealt with him long ago.

Although I dislike Mr. Mei very much in my heart, it is not good to have a stalemate with him before he takes office. After all, it is not good to have many friends and many enemies, so he did not show it publicly. When I came out, I only served as a witness for my father and Mr. Mei.

Because Concubine Mei never showed her dislike for Dafang, the people of Dafang, including Master Mei, did not notice that Concubine Mei had a wrong attitude towards her family, so Master Mei still had a good attitude towards Concubine Mei at this time. Yes, he promised that he would work hard to help her ascend to the throne. This is also true. After all, Concubine Mei is about to ascend to the throne, and she will be very good to their eldest brother. However, you must know that Concubine Mei hates the eldest chamber, so she probably would not say such a thing, let alone He would do such a thing to avoid revenge from Concubine Mei in the future.

Although Mr. Mei took the money, he has not separated from his second wife for the time being. The reason why he has not separated is also very simple. If they live together, he can still say that he is Mei Fei's natal family. If the two families are equally divided, then Mei The concubine's natal family can only be the second wife, and it has nothing to do with him. Then it will be difficult for him to collect people's money and help people run official positions. In this way, the income of the first wife will be affected. If he goes out, because he and the second wife The families are separated, and it cannot be said that they are Concubine Mei's natal family. At the same time, he does not have an official position, so that he will not be looked down upon. This is naturally not what he wants to see, so naturally they still live together.

Because she has been paying attention to the activities of Concubine Mei and the Mei family, An Ran naturally heard about these things that happened in the Mei family. However, she did not take advantage of the conflict between the eldest and second bedrooms to cause trouble this time, because they already had a relationship with each other. Contradiction, there is no need for her to go out of her way to cause trouble, lest she be discovered, which would be bad.

Concubine Mei guessed something right. The older the eldest prince got, the more wary the emperor became about him. He gradually stopped sending him on errands, lest the eldest prince's reputation among the people would get higher and higher. In the future, his reputation would not reach a certain level. The courtiers all supported him as emperor and forced him to abdicate and become the supreme emperor.

While the eldest prince was not often sent on errands, Concubine Mei was once again promoted to Concubine Mei.

But this time, the emperor's love for Concubine Mei was only one aspect. More importantly, he planned to provoke Empress Zhang to fight with Concubine Mei, so he deliberately promoted Concubine Mei to the rank of Concubine Mei, so that Empress Zhang would feel a sense of crisis. Then she would have to deal with Concubine Mei. Concubine Mei took action, and he had a handle. One day he felt that there was a crisis, so he used this to depose Queen Zhang to prevent the eldest prince from forcing the palace.

Because Empress Zhang didn't want to take the initiative to harm anyone, she didn't know that the emperor's move was to provoke her into a fight with Concubine Mei. However, there was no doubt that after several years, the murderer Concubine Mei not only did not fall out of favor, but the emperor also restored her favor. Due to her position, Queen Zhang was still very angry.

In fact, in recent years, there have been no newcomers to the palace, including myself and some high-ranking concubines. In order to snipe Concubine Mei, they also specially selected girls who were beautiful or similar to Concubine Mei to enter the palace during the draft. However, Without exception, they failed to shake the status of Concubine Mei.

Empress Zhang felt that this might be because the emperor loved talented women, but it was really difficult to find a talented woman who could be as beautiful as Concubine Mei, so they never succeeded.

Although she was very angry, Empress Zhang's plan at this time might disappoint the emperor, because she did not deal with Concubine Mei. Empress Zhang's thoughts were the same as before - as long as she did not abolish the queen, and there was no crisis of abolishing the queen, she There is no need to do anything, lest you fall into trouble, which would be unsightly.

Even if the emperor deliberately dotes on Concubine Mei more and more, giving people the feeling that he may want to depose the queen, Empress Zhang will not do anything for the time being, unless the emperor really takes some practical action.

She doesn't have to worry about the emperor making a sudden attack. After all, she still has some background, and there are many forces supporting her son. They will pay attention to the emperor's every move, and if there is a problem, she will be notified immediately to react.

Concubine Mei didn't know the emperor's true thoughts. She just thought that with her hard work, she finally impressed the emperor again and made him love her as much as before. She was naturally very happy. After all, only if she became more and more favored, her son would be better in the future. Only then did he have the opportunity to ascend to the throne, so he worked harder to increase the emperor's favorability.

And Concubine Mei was once again promoted to Concubine Mei. Although she only restored her status and did not take a step forward, it also re-energized the Mei family.

After all, since Concubine Song poisoned Concubine Mei during her pregnancy and was thrown into the cold palace, the emperor has not appointed any concubines as concubines. In other words, the position of concubine has been vacant after Concubine Mei was demoted. Now Mei After the concubine regained her position, she naturally became the only noble concubine. She was once again ranked below Queen Zhang and above the others. Because she was favored, in fact, her real status in the palace was completely equal to that of Zhang. The Queen was walking closely together, but Queen Zhang didn't dare to do anything to her when she saw her.

Such prosperity has naturally boosted the Mei family's status in the capital and re-energized them. Now they finally don't have to do what they did some time ago, because Concubine Mei was demoted and the Mei family took over officials. It feels like they are going downhill. The beauty is no longer there, and it’s awkward to go out. Now when they go out, they can straighten their waists again.
