Empress Dowager + Spoiler

Xiao Shizi took a look at Princess Minghe, saw someone nodding, and immediately ran to Gu Xizhao's side, tugged at Gu Xizhao's sleeve, and said obediently, "Thank you, Aunt Huang."

Princess Minghe also entered the palace, and leaned over again, "You really didn't say anything? But I've been here too, so it doesn't matter if we women talk about these things..."

Gu Xizhao gave Xiaoshizi a piece of exquisite lantern heart cake, and stuffed another piece for Minghe Princess, "I didn't expect that sister Huang is such a gossip."

Princess Minghe took the pastry, but gagged, smiled, and went to eat the pastry.

Gu Xizhao took a piece herself, and took a bite of it as a pastime.

As for what the little fool said just now, it was the interest between their husband and wife, and she was not willing to tell outsiders.

——I'm not afraid of the queen and the overlord, but I'm afraid of going on. I want to be forced by the queen and the overlord.

Chapter 128

After the big wedding, the treasure book and phoenix seal that symbolized the identity of the empress returned, and the harem, which had been scattered for more than a year, finally ushered in a legitimate mistress.

Gu Xizhao is not a new official, and now it is more legitimate. There are no elders in the harem, such as the queen mother, to control the head, and there are no messy concubines to control. It should be more convenient to act.

However, compared to her previous style as Concubine Xi, she is now more cautious as a queen, carefully considering every word and action, and she no longer sees the publicity of Concubine Xi who did whatever she wanted.

Regarding this, Chan'er has some complaints. Just take the matter of Madam An's gift of snacks as an example. Now her master is the master of the Sixth Palace who is under one person and above ten thousand people. If she can't eat anything, Madam An takes After a few pieces of Suzhou dim sum made by myself, I rushed to show my courtship shamelessly, and sat in Changning Palace for more than half an hour.

It's just that her mother has a good temper. If it were her, she would have already turned away this little bitch who is overbearing.

"Niang Niang, when you were in trouble, Mrs. Na'an used to be sneering and sarcastic, but now she comes to Changning Palace with a smile every day like a jú flower to give you gifts. It's obvious that she wants to please you. You're such a fool, why would you waste your time dealing with people?"

Chan'er spoke angrily, but Gu Xizhao just laughed it off.

"Your Majesty, you have changed." Chan'er's expression changed, and she was very annoyed at her magnanimity, but she was the master and she was just a slave, so she could only hold her breath.

Gu Xizhao raised her eyebrows, "Oh? What changed?"

Chan'er secretly glanced at her, hesitated for a moment, still gritted her teeth, and said truthfully: "In the past, my mother was a happy person who avenges revenge and repays injustice, but now her status is more honorable, but she is tied up, not at all like before. It's crisp and neat."

Gu Xizhao lowered her eyes, picked up a piece of lily sou from the plate at the side, and handed it to Chan'er, "Taste it."

Chan'er glanced at the plate with a resisted expression. She did not forget that this was Mrs. An's hospitality, but she still reached out and took Baihesu, "Thank you for the reward."

Gu Xizhao looked at her embarrassed face, took a piece herself, took a sip, savored it carefully, put down the snack again, wiped her hands with a handkerchief, and then slowly opened her mouth, "Madam An is She is from Suzhou, but she is also dexterous, and the cakes she makes are also considered outstanding. In the past, the emperor favored her because the cakes she made suited his appetite, so Ai Wuji Wu let her sleep with her."

Chan'er still didn't eat the snack, "It's delicious, what are you talking about with your servants?"

"Mrs. An's status is not high, but her father is the magistrate of Suzhou. Now the emperor wants to build water conservancy projects in the south of the Yangtze River and open up canals, and the support of these local officials is indispensable. According to the news from Governor Xu a few days ago, this time the planning of water conservancy projects in the south of the Yangtze River This magistrate An responded most positively. Just because of this, I should treat Mrs. An kindly."

Gu Xizhao looked at the plate of lily sou again, "Furthermore, Mrs. An has a delicate temper. She has been in the palace for so long, and I have only seen her make cakes to please the late emperor. The taste of the lily sou today is the same as that given to the late emperor in the past. It's the same, so it can be seen that she did it herself, and it can be regarded as a kindness."

Chan'er didn't think so, "Your servant is watching, she is just trying to curry favor with the empress."

Gu Xizhao shook her head, and said helplessly: "Chan'er, the truth in this world has always been that winners and losers, the fittest survive. The weak attaching to the strong is also a way of life. She is disliked by others, but this is her way of life, and no one else can criticize her. What's more, Mrs. An just said something disliked, but she didn't do anything bad. I don't need to worry about her."

Chan'er seemed to understand but half understood, and her expression eased a little, "Your Majesty is just too generous."

"Chan'er, I am the queen now."

Queen of little fools.

From entering the palace, being Zhao Jin's imperial concubine, or taking charge of the harem for the frail and sick queen, it was just an agreement between her and Zhao Jin, and to her, it was more like a game.

Since it's a game, she doesn't care much about the outcome, so she does her own thing and does whatever she wants. It doesn't matter what the world thinks of her, Concubine Xi.

However, how the world views her as a queen is very important.

Chan'er didn't understand the deep meaning of her words, and couldn't figure it out either.In her opinion, when her master was only a noble concubine, she never cared about the affection of those who please others. Now that she is a queen, she should have no scruples.

Gu Xizhao glanced at her without further explanation, "Chan'er, you just have to remember that the reputation of Changning Palace in the future is not only related to the reputation of the palace, but also related to the reputation of the emperor."

Chan'er could understand these words, "Your Majesty, don't worry, the servants will definitely be careful in their words and deeds in the future, and control the palace servants of Changning Palace for your Majesty."

Gu Xizhao nodded, and glanced at the sun outside, "You go down and make arrangements first, the emperor is probably coming here soon, it's hot here, prepare the sour plum soup."

Chan'er also glanced at the sun outside, and without further delay, hurriedly took her orders.

As the day got hotter and people got tired, Gu Xizhao sat alone in the hall, covered her lips and yawned, thinking that the little fool would come over later, she picked up the Lily Soup that she had just tasted and ate it. Wake up.

What kind of character is Mrs. An? Of course, she has a longer-term view than Chan'er. Regarding Mrs. An's overtures, the reason why she does not refuse, besides the two things she said to Chan'er, is actually another one - she would rather offend a gentleman, Do not offend the villain.

Although Mrs. An didn't have the guts to do bad things, she had a mouth to tell tales.If she treats others harshly, there will be rumors in the harem that she, the empress, cannot tolerate others.The fact that she was so considerate was not because she was afraid of her and there was nothing she could do about it, but because she needed her mouth to spread the word about her generosity as a queen.

She is the queen who was conferred by a little fool against all opinions, and she can't tolerate any stigma, because her faults will be counted on the little fool.

She is not afraid that the history books will say that Gu Xizhao is a demon queen who will bring disaster to the country and the people, but she is only afraid that the history books will say that the little fool is a fatuous emperor.

When Zhao Jin's Xi noble concubine, she can be unscrupulous.

When you are the queen of the little fool, you can only be cautious in your words and deeds.

Aggrieved?

Gu Xizhao raised her head and looked out, her vision was quickly blocked by the high palace walls.After a while, she lowered her head and smiled.

In the past, she felt extremely wronged. Although no one ever forced her, she felt that this seemingly magnificent palace was a cage that made people live like years.

Now, this is her home.

How can there be grievances?

Gu Xizhao sat alone in the middle of the hall and thought about it. Not long after, the voice of the palace servants came from the outside, and then Zhu'er came over with a smile, "Your Majesty, the emperor is here."

Gu Xizhao put her hands on Zhu'er's and got up, "Is the small kitchen ready?"

"Sister Chan'er is making arrangements, and it will be ready soon."

While talking, the two left the hall, and saw Zhao Sansi trotting over from a distance, and Li Zhongxian trotting behind him holding a parasol, wiping his sweat.

"emperor……"

"Queen, hurry up and go into the palace, the sun is too poisonous and hot." Without waiting for Gu Xizhao to speak, Zhao Sansi quickly waved her hand and told her to go into the palace.

Gu Xizhao looked at her in a hurry, stepped out and retracted her feet, and stood in the shade under the eaves waiting for her to come.

Seeing someone, Zhao Sansi walked faster, stepped over in three steps at a time, and before Gu Xizhaofu went down to salute, he grabbed her, "It was cold two days ago, When the sun came out, it was unbearably hot.”

Gu Xizhao took out a handkerchief and helped her wipe the sweat off her face, "Knowing that it's hot, I still didn't ask Eunuch Li to hold an umbrella for you. You left in such a hurry."

Zhao Sansi took her handkerchief and sniffed at the tip of his nose, wiped off the sweat indiscriminately, put away the handkerchief, and dragged Gu Xizhao into the hall, "It's hot even after holding an umbrella, often hot is not as good as short hot. "
