Funing Hall

After Zhao Cong left, the left and right servants looked at each other, and then silently looked away.

There is also a fire burning in their hearts.

Who would have thought that His Majesty would behave in such a manner.

It's not a rebellion, but it has the strength of rebellion.

Didn't the two of them support the Empress Dowager just because they wanted to reform?How did they expect that Queen Mother Sun would not even dare to rebel!

Fortunately, now, there is an emperor who looks like a rebel leader!

They couldn't help feeling remorse, if six years ago, they had given His Majesty the position, what would the Great Song do at this time?

Zhao Cong was in the Chui Gong Hall, to put it modestly, even if he didn't become famous in the first battle, he was indeed in the limelight for a while.

Empress Dowager Sun fell ill again at night, blisters formed at the corners of her mouth, and she was so angry.Qing Ming worriedly waited on the bedside, and when there was no one else, she finally couldn't help but whispered: "Your Majesty, the maidservant has something to say."

Empress Dowager Sun opened her eyes and looked at her, knowing what she was going to say.

Empress Dowager Sun smiled: "There is no need to say too much."

"Miss!"

"Since the bow is drawn, how can it be turned back?"

"But ma'am, if you can't aim at the red heart, what's the use?"

"Bold!" Queen Mother Sun was furious.

Qing Ming knelt on the ground, her eyes were red.

Empress Dowager Sun took a deep breath, and after a long time, said softly: "Forget it, get up."

In fact, Empress Dowager Sun had too many opportunities, but every time she was ruined by her soft heart.Zhao Cong is not as good as her in everything, but only one, Zhao Cong wins, Zhao Cong is the emperor!

But she was still unwilling to admit defeat. She opened her eyes and clenched her hands into fists under the quilt.

She will not hand over the Crown Treasure.

She still has a way, she will recall Sun Xiaoyu tomorrow, Song Zhou's schedule to go back and forth to Kaifeng Mansion happens to be two days, and the day of her return happens to be Zhao Cong's birthday.

After hearing what she said, Qingming already felt that the empress was struggling, but she couldn't bear to provoke her any more, so she took orders to retreat.

Empress Dowager Sun squinted her eyes again in the bed. She had already suffered a soft heart once, and she must not be soft again.

Xie Zhiyuan, this person must die!

Just at this time, Aunt Wang asked to see her.

She didn't want to see Aunt Wang, so Aunt Wang broke in crying and knelt by the bed: "Madam, it's already this time, why don't you want to see the servant girl! As long as you say a word, Madam, the servant girl will help you harm him." ! The maidservant is responsible for the crime alone, my lord!"

The Empress Dowager Sun couldn't bear it, looked at her, and said: "Auntie, you are confused. If you harm him, who would know that you are my wet nurse? How will I be treated then? How will the Duke of Yan's mansion be treated? I am the Empress Dowager after all, No one dares to punish me for my crime, yet the Duke of Yan's mansion is about to be destroyed."

"Your Majesty, how can you be so wronged?"

"I robbed him for six years. I should have to face this. I'm fine."

"Miss!"

"Back off, what you said just now, don't mention it to others again."

"Mother--"

"Go down." Queen Mother Sun closed her eyes.

Aunt Wang wiped her tears and had no choice but to back away, but just as she walked out the door of the inner room, her face darkened.

At night, after Zhao Cong fed Zhao Shishi the medicine, he fell asleep obediently.

But this was only on the surface, as soon as the candles in the hall were extinguished, he immediately sat up again.

Ji Xiang also hurriedly stood outside the curtain, and said: "Your Majesty is very majestic in the Chui Gong Hall today."

"How majestic?"

Ji Xiang said this and that, but Zhao Shixi remained silent.

Jixiang has also become more and more confused these days. In the past, when their husband mentioned Zhao Cong, most of them sneered or disdainful.Now it's good, if you say something about your Majesty's majesty, Lang Jun looks quite happy.He was serving the lord, so he naturally picked what the lord liked to say, and now when it comes to His Majesty, his words are also respectful.

Zhao Shishi was thinking, why is Zhao Cong so smart?

When feeding him medicine at night, he deliberately knocked over the medicine bowl, and Zhao Cong scolded him, still looking stupid from being angry, very interesting.

Who taught him those words?

I'm afraid it's Zhao Zongning or Qian Shang again.

But words can be taught, how can momentum be taught?Zhao Cong's aura couldn't be faked, and he couldn't help feeling a little suspicious.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Ji Xiang took the initiative to say: "Mr. Lang, Your Majesty's birthday is approaching, what are your plans at this time?"

Only then did Zhao Shishi wake up, and he had to remember his original intention of entering the palace.

After a while, he said softly: "At least let him celebrate his birthday happily."

"Yes." Ji Xiang replied, and said again, "Aunt Wang came to look for the younger one at night. She didn't give anything, but asked Concubine Shu if she would send soup to our Funing Hall every day."

"How do you say that?"

"To tell the truth, after all, everyone knows it. Mr. Lang, she is afraid that she will start with Concubine Shu. Concubine Shu is afraid that it will be bad luck."

Zhao Shishi thought to himself, Qian Yuemo must be unlucky!Every day I come to Funing Palace, it looks like Funing Palace is her home.

Qian Yuemo was really anxious to wait in Xueliu Pavilion.

She has discussed with His Majesty many times in the past few days, no matter how she analyzes it, it doesn't matter if she analyzes it positively or negatively.Her Xueliu Pavilion is the best entry point, but His Majesty's birthday is tomorrow, and there is no movement yet.

In the morning, she got up and walked towards the courtyard holding Piao Shu's hand.

Standing in the courtyard, she looked up at the pigeons flying from Funing Palace, her eyes narrowed slightly.The pigeons flew by, and there was a "flapping" sound, and she laughed, and Piaoshu also laughed: "These pigeons are really well raised."

Qian Yuemo withdrew her gaze and was about to nod, but saw a few young maids coming from the outside, going around the corridor on the left, and followed the maids of Xueliu Pavilion to the back.

Piaoshu took a look, and said: "Xu is the little palace maid at Yanming Pavilion."

Qian Yuemo narrowed her eyes slightly, and then regained her composure, and asked, "Recently, do they come here often?"

"That's right, a few days ago, Madam Qi's court lady came here to inquire about the tonic soup you made for His Majesty." Piao Shu disdainfully said, "Madam, you made it yourself. Ask about it. Ask the servant girl to tell you that Madam Qi's behavior is really very pissed off!"

Compete for favor, compete for His Majesty's favor, and rely on one's own ability!Mrs. Qi is useless by herself, but she wants to imitate their ladies!

Qian Yue silently adjusted the handkerchief in her hand, and said indifferently: "Miss Qi is the only daughter in the family, so she is inevitably arrogant."

"A person like the princess is worthy of arrogance! She is just the daughter of a magistrate."

Qian Yuemo had no intention of mocking Mrs. Qi, the so-called identity was an extremely unfair thing.Whether it's the magistrate's daughter or the prime minister's daughter, if they're still trapped in this small world, what's the difference?

If someone wants to harm His Majesty, isn't it just to take advantage of these innocent women?

In this world, women are born to be sad.

Who cares whether they live or die.

As arrogant and indulgent as Princess Baoning, so what, he will still be trapped in the backyard in the future.

After thinking about it, she smiled nonchalantly: "How many princesses are there in the world?"

After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked back into the house, feeling relieved, it seemed that someone had already done something.

She can also explain to His Majesty.

Whose favor is easy to come by?

Who is not standing in the palace wall tremblingly.

In Funing Hall, Rantao thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, tomorrow is your birthday."

"En." Zhao Cong was reading a book, and nodded casually when he heard Rantao's words.

"But this, this—" Rantao was a little angry and anxious, but suddenly didn't know what to say.

Zhao Cong looked up at her and smiled: "No one in Qi Palace asked about my birthday? What's more, no one asked about my birthday?"

"Your Majesty! The Empress Dowager is going too far! This is your 16th birthday. Back then, she said in person that she would return it to you this year! The people in the palace are too bad—" Rantao couldn't say any indecent words after all.

Zhao Cong was angry when she saw that she was always steady, and he could understand, after all, in their eyes, the 16th birthday was a very important day.The ancients valued this age, and it was the age at which Empress Dowager Sun said that she would return to the government.

But he doesn't care about that.He simply put down the book in his hand and asked Rantao: "Yesterday, I was in the Chui Gong Palace, how was it?"

"The Empress Dowager dare not say a word! You have said everything, please ask her to take charge of the government for a few more days, and after her birthday, she must return!"

"Isn't that enough?"

"His Majesty?"

"It doesn't matter whether it's my birthday or the words of returning to the government. Rantao, you have taken care of me since I was a child, and you have dealt with Empress Dowager Sun more often. How much can you believe her words?"

"I can't believe it!"

"That's right, what's in your hands is the truth. What I say and what I do is also true, and no one can stop it." Zhao Cong smiled. If he really wants to show off, he just needs to open his mouth. Who would dare not arrange this so-called Longevity Festival, he said, "I would rather have a bowl of birthday noodles with Shi Shi and Ning Ning tomorrow. Besides, she has been pushed by me, and something will happen in the next two days .”

"With her—"

Before Ran Tao finished speaking, Lu Yuan hurried in from the outside: "Your Majesty!"

"Ok?"

"The Empress Dowager sent someone to Songzhou to pick up Mrs. Sun!"

Rantao was stunned: "Is this going to happen?"

Zhao Cong laughed: "This is where it is."

Lu Yuan looked at them puzzled.

Zhao Cong got up and said, "It's okay, you send someone out of the palace to bring a letter to Uncle Wei Jun, saying that Mrs. Sun is coming back! He naturally knows what to do."

"Yes!" Lu Yuan took the order and quickly withdrew.

Rantao waited to say more, Fu Lu came in and said: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu is here."

"please come in."

"Yes!"

Zhao Cong smiled at Rantao: "This is really a matter."

"..." Rantao became more and more puzzled, she turned around, and saw Concubine Qian Shu walking into the main hall with a smile on her face.She still holds a delicate food box in her hand, which contains the nourishing soup she stewed for His Majesty.

It's no different than it used to be.

Zhao Cong has no intention of explaining to them, after all, the less people know about this kind of thing, the more it will be a big deal.

He ordered everyone to leave the main hall, everyone knew that he doted on Concubine Qian Shu, but there was no other guess.Even Rantao, who was a little tense, became relaxed again because of Concubine Qian Shu's arrival, and she backed away with a smile.

When there was no one in the hall, Qian Yuemo opened the food box and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I made chicken soup for Your Majesty today."

Zhao Cong couldn't help raising his eyebrows, he looked at Qian Yuemo's hands, Qian Yuemo carefully took out the porcelain cup from the food box, and placed it in front of him.

Qian Yuemo lifted the lid.

The soup is clear and fragrant. In addition to chicken, there are wolfberries and some mushrooms.

There is no problem with goji berries and ginseng, but the problem is with the mushrooms?

He does like to eat all kinds of mushrooms.

He looked up at Qian Yuemo again.

Qian Yue smiled silently: "Early this morning, the little palace maid next to Mrs. Qi in Yanming Pavilion came to ask for cooking skills. After they left, my concubine went to the dining room and looked at today's ingredients. The mushrooms were very fresh, so I stewed them for Your Majesty." This soup."

Mrs. Qi?

According to Zhao Cong's knowledge, this little girl is very brainless, don't be used as a gun by someone, right?

But at this time, it is not the time to care about these.

Zhao Cong scooped up the mushroom with a spoon to see, could it be a poisonous mushroom?But if this is a poisonous mushroom, if you eat it and you die, it's very easy to find the root cause by starting with Qian Yuemo, this method is too stupid.If you can't die if you eat it, what's the use of making a fuss about this poisonous mushroom at this stall?If he couldn't be killed quickly, the Empress Dowager Sun would be at her wit's end.

"Your Majesty. According to reports, the Fifth Envoy of the Southwest Yi Department has visited the palace many times to meet the Queen Mother."

Zhao Cong nodded, the Fifth Envoy was definitely the Queen Mother Sun's party, and he would not show any kindness in front of him.

"Your Majesty, have you ever heard of the book "Bacteria Spectrum"?"

Zhao Cong shook his head, although he reads a lot, but he is not interested in eating, so he will not read these things.

Qian Yue smiled silently: "Your Majesty, my concubine's natal family has this book. I read it when I was at home. It records many types of mushrooms. I'm afraid your majesty doesn't know that some fungi that can harm people are not fresh. , nor can it cause death by poisoning."

"Oh?" Zhao Cong looked at her.

"There is a kind of phantom mushroom, which is named for its ability to cause hallucinations. This kind of mushroom, as long as you eat it, even if it is only a bite, it will also work. If you eat it every day for three or two days, people will lose weight. There must be an illusion."

"What is an illusion?"

"Before today, I have never seen this kind of fungus. I have never been out of Kaifeng Mansion since I was born, and it is said that there is no one in the north of the Yangtze River. Moreover, there are few books about this phantom mushroom. Interested in this, I rummaged a lot, and found some notes of contemporaries who also mentioned it. According to the notes, people who ate this mushroom were not immediately fatal, but many strange things appeared before their eyes. For example, there are people who are as big as a thumb, and for example, there are people with blue hair, etc. Some people can heal themselves after a few days of hallucinations, and some will go crazy forever." Speaking of this, Qian Yuemo looked up at him , "Some people even jumped into the lake on their own initiative due to hallucinations, and died because of it."

"Active?" Zhao Cong smiled and said these two words silently, "Since Yueniang said before today, it can be seen that she saw it today?"

Qian Yue smiled silently: "It is said that it looks like an ordinary white mushroom, but there is a gray circle at the root. Concubine, I did see it today."

Zhao Cong looked at his hand again, there was a gray ring at the root of the mushroom in the spoon.

He also smiled: "I, I saw it too."

"Your Majesty, this type of fungus only appears in the southwest mountains."

Zhao Cong nodded, and stirred the phantom mushrooms in the soup again.

"Your Majesty, the other party is very cautious. There are two baskets of mushrooms in the dining room. I searched carefully and found only ten. However, each of these rattan baskets is divided into five layers, that is, each layer has one. The other party is cautious and thoughtful. Thorough. With the fungus on that layer, you can always run into it."

In the soup bowl in front of you, there are five in total.

"The other five, I will use them tomorrow."

Zhao Cong was silent for a long time, and asked Qian Yuemo: "You are so smart, what exactly do you want?"

Qian Yuemo was stunned for a moment, and said with a generous smile: "Your Majesty, I am just a concubine, and what I say is slight, compared to the world, it is even more insignificant. Although I am a weak woman, I have great wishes in my heart, and I also wish for peace in the world." .”

"You can be sure that I can bring peace to the world?"

"Yes."

Zhao Cong smiled, put down the spoon, and said, "I can't give it to you. How about making you a queen when I take charge of the government?"

Qian Yuemo was slightly stunned, and immediately shook her head: "This is not what I want."

"I can only give you this, and you deserve it too."

Qian Yuemo suddenly understood what he said, His Majesty just needed a queen.This queen could be anyone, but she happened to please him.

She also thought to herself again, why doesn't His Majesty get close to the concubine?She couldn't figure it out, but it had nothing to do with her, she was only someone who could be used by His Majesty, she just wanted to live a good life in the palace, if she could do more good deeds, that would be great.

She thought about it, and smiled: "Your Majesty, this concubine is your concubine, and I will cherish what you bestow. Just forgive my concubine's nonsense, and it is not suitable for you to make a concubine a queen immediately when your majesty is in charge. This matter should be considered in the long term." .”

Zhao Cong laughed out loud, how could there be such a smart little girl.

As expected, he was lucky, and it was also his sister who had poisonous eyes.

He will definitely designate Qian Yuemo as queen in the future, she is indeed worth it.He was going to marry the queen anyway.

Zhao Cong said with a relieved smile, "We'll talk about it later."

"Yes." Qian Yuemo finally showed a relaxed smile.

Zhao Shishi just stepped into the hall, and when he looked up, he saw the pair of young lovers smiling at each other.

He still wanted to touch the knife.

The author has something to say: Qian Yuemo: Whose favor comes easily? [Sad] [Beauty Face]

Eleven: Me[=v=][beauty face plus (self-appointed)]
