Confused the world

When several people heard that Dong Xue was going to talk about the concubines in the harem, they all rushed over together.In an instant, the huge paulownia square table was full of people.Women love to gossip, this is really not casual, just look at the few women who are listening to the story with their heads stretched out, you already know it.

"You guys, when did you become interested in the women in the palace?"

Looking at the few people who seemed to have heard an interesting story, surrounded by crowds like this, they were more excited than picking up silver.

"Miss, we are also here to dawdle in the palace in the future. If you accidentally hit the bull's-eye without knowing the situation of the ladies, this will cause you trouble, won't it?"

Chun Yu smiled and hugged her own plate of melon seeds, sitting to the right of Mu Qingcheng.Chun Yu is the most eloquent among the few, and her lip service is first-rate.

"Chunyu, I don't believe that you are the kind of person who will hit the bull's-eye. If it were Qiuyue, I wouldn't doubt it at all, so forget it. You can say that the dead are alive, and the living are dead. .No one can compare with you in this skill."

Mu Qingcheng picked up the teapot and got a bowl of tea, took a sip, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.Then he placed a bowl of tea in front of Chun Yu, and tapped the lid of the bowl a few times with his hands.He blinked at her twice, which meant that he didn't believe it at all.

"puff……"

Seeing Mu Qingcheng's series of performances, Xia Xiang couldn't help laughing.

"Xia Xiang, what are you laughing at?"

Hearing Xia Xiang's laughter, Chun Yu became anxious.He put down the plate of melon seeds and stood up.

"Miss, look at what you said, they all laughed at me."

Chun Yu pouted, took Mu Qingcheng's hand and began to act like a spoiled child, feeling wronged.Several people were secretly laughing at herself, she knew it in her heart.

"Okay, Chun Yu, Miss is telling the truth, so don't lose your temper. I'll finish speaking soon so that Miss can go to bed. Please greet me tomorrow. You will be responsible if Miss doesn't wake up."

"No, let me wake the lady up, forget it. The lady stays in bed, except you and Miss Murong, no one can wake her up from the bed. I'd better just listen to the story honestly."

When Chun Yu heard that she was going to wake Mu Qingcheng up, the expression on her face changed instantly.His face was full of reluctance, as if he would not do this even if he was killed.He looked down at Mu Qingcheng, quickly let go of his hand, patted the table twice, and sat down on the stool.

What Chun Yu is most afraid of in this life is to wake up her own family, this young lady is more skillful at lazying on the bed than she is with her lip service.Sometimes, if someone does not wake her up, she may sleep for a day and a night.She is not the kind of person who gets up when she is called, very inky.It is always said that it is time to sleep for another stick of incense, another time for a cup of tea, sleep for a while, squint again, and finally sleep until noon.

"Chunyu, you don't have to be so disgusted if you ask me to wake me up. I will definitely wake up tomorrow by myself, and I don't need you to wake me up. It's really annoying to see how disgusted you are."

Mu Qingcheng pulled her small face and turned to Dongxue.Isn't it necessary for this guy to ask her to wake him up as if he killed her?

"Miss, what did you just say?"

Everyone spoke in unison, as if they had heard shocking news, they all raised their heads towards Mu Qingcheng, their faces full of surprise.Fearing that what he just heard was a dream, he stared straight at her.

"You...you, what is this, I said I will get up by myself tomorrow, do you really need to be so surprised?"

Mu Qingcheng looked at the crowd and shrank her neck back.These people are really getting smaller and smaller. Looking at the expressions of these people, it's really annoying.When they get up by themselves, do they need to look at themselves with this expression?Suddenly, I felt that my position in the hearts of the girls was so low that it couldn't be lowered.

"Okay, Miss, we're just curious. This is the first time Miss said that she got up by herself, and we are a little uncomfortable. Haha, let's not talk about this, let's talk about the things in the palace first."

Dong Xue looked at Mu Qingcheng's face very badly, so hurry up and make things right.She really couldn't believe what the lady said just now.But since I said it, it's good to see the real situation tomorrow.If she really changed her habit of sleeping late, she might be much better in the palace from now on.

"What's wrong with this? Let's talk about the situation in the palace quickly. I want to know if those women are interesting now, so that my life in the palace will not be boring in the future."

The face immediately turned from cloudy to bright like a flower. The speed of this change makes it impossible for you to know whether the person was really angry just now.

"Okay, I won't talk about the concubines in the palace first, but the queen mother first."

"The Queen Mother? Dong Xue, why do you say the Queen Mother? The Queen Mother is His Majesty's mother, so of course it is for His Majesty. She will not intentionally embarrass our lady."

Qiuyue, who had been silent all this time, spoke at this moment.She didn't know anything about the affairs in the palace.Without thinking about it, I said it.

"Who said this Queen Mother is His Majesty's biological mother? Have you ever seen such a young Queen Mother?"

Chunyu gave Qiuyue a blank look. Apart from caring about her sword, this woman would know other things, and this day would also change.

"Qiuyue, you must remember what I said tonight. It is better not to talk indiscriminately in the future. You should think about it before speaking, so as to reduce mistakes. This is the palace, how to speak and behave , Many people are watching, a small mistake may also become something that kills you."

Qiuyue has no scheming, outspoken heart, and simple person. Dongxue is most worried about her.

"it is good."

"This queen mother is Your Majesty's aunt, and she is only 30 years old this year. She is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She was the most talented woman in the imperial capital at that time. In the 21st year of Mingde, Empress Xiaowen died. Because the first emperor loved Empress Xiaowen in this life, there is no one in the harem Other concubines. Empress Xiaowen died of illness for half a year. The ministers worried that the harem would have no owner in the future, so they collectively wrote a letter to let the first emperor accept a concubine. For the sake of the prince, the first emperor appointed Empress Xiaowen's younger sister Liu Yihan as the queen. Strange to say, the queen mother was eighteen at the time, But she didn't marry for a long time, the reason behind this is only known by the Queen Mother herself."

Dong Xue spoke in detail, and everyone listened carefully.They all put down the things they were busy with, and listened with their ears up, afraid that if they were not paying attention, they would miss it and go away.

"The queen mother is so young, I thought she was a majestic old lady."

Qiuyue blinked her eyes twice, and said something with a sigh.

"Has the queen mother always been a majestic old woman in your eyes? Haha...Qiuyue, if you let the queen mother know that you said that about her, you probably won't be able to see the sun tomorrow."

Chunyu pointed at Qiuyue and laughed out loud. This palace has been full of beauties since ancient times. How many queen mothers belong to old women?Some teenage dolls can become queen mothers, let alone only 30 years old.

"Chun Yu, don't laugh, I don't know about the affairs in the palace. The Queen Mother is so young, how do I know?"

Being teased by Chunyu, Qiuyue was a little unhappy.Looking at Mu Qingcheng with an aggrieved face.

Seeing Qiuyue's pitiful eyes, Mu Qingcheng's heart softened, and he opened his mouth to help her.

"I'm talking about Chunyu, so you don't have to say a few words. It's not like you don't know Qiuyue's temper. If she knows that the Queen Mother is a young and beautiful woman, then she is not Qiuyue. Don't laugh at her anymore."

These words sounded like they were speaking for Qiuyue, except for Qiuyue, the other three knew what it meant.He lowered his head, covered his mouth and snickered, not daring to make a sound.

Qiuyue thought that looking at Mu Qingcheng with pitiful eyes had an effect, and her young lady helped her speak, she was very happy in her heart, as if she didn't pay attention to the changes in the expressions on the faces of the people around her.

"Actually, it is thanks to the Queen Mother that His Majesty and King An Yi are able to have today's status. Maybe the first emperor married the Queen Mother for His Majesty and King An Yi, and King Yixin has always coveted the throne. In order to ensure that someone can properly manage the harem and take care of His Majesty, This late emperor also took great pains."

Dongxue took a sip of tea, and carefully analyzed the matter of the first emperor making Liu Yihan his empress.The situation in the palace is complicated and disturbing, and ordinary people really can't blend in.

"There is some truth to this. When the first emperor entrusted Gu, he also said that the Queen Mother should listen to my father's advice. I am afraid that this is also for the sake of the world of the Huangfu Dynasty."

Mu Qingcheng thought that Dongxue's analysis made sense, and nodded her head in praise.

"Next, I will talk about the queen. This queen is also a talented woman. Her father is Ouyang Chong, Prime Minister of Zuo, and her brother is Ouyang Yi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Your Majesty entered the palace three days after he ascended the throne and was directly conferred the title of empress. She also recommended herself to enter the palace. This was the only strange event at that time. At that time, people said that the queen loved her majesty, and there were many versions of the story."

"Is there such a thing? It's the first time I've heard of it. I'm afraid the ulterior motives are not in the bar."

Mu Qingcheng picked up the tea bowl with her right hand and rubbed it in her hand, the smile on the corner of her mouth seemed to be waiting for a good show to take place.

"Miss, do you know the reason why the queen entered the palace?"

Xia Xiang saw Mu Qingcheng's treacherous smile, and knew she must know something, so she asked curiously.

"Me? I don't know anything. Dongxue continues."

Now the good show has just begun, and Mu Qingcheng doesn't want to reveal the plot in advance.Without answering Xia Xiang's question, she smiled and motioned Dong Xue to continue talking.

"There are two factions in the court, one is the faction of King Yixin, and the other is the faction of our master. This Ouyang Chong is a member of King Yixin. Back then, His Majesty appointed Ouyang Qingxue as the queen, and it was to monitor Ouyang Chong. After the queen entered the palace , is very virtuous, and the Queen Mother also likes it very much. The Queen goes to the Queen Mother every day to pay her respects, even if she is bedridden and sick, she will go there in person. With such persistence, the palace people all say that the Queen is benevolent and filial."

"Really? This queen seems to be a kind woman, and it won't be too troublesome to get along with."

Chun Yu grabbed a handful of melon seeds, heard Dong Xue say so about the Queen's character, and admired her in her heart, so she decided that she was a good person.

"That's not necessarily the case. You haven't met the queen, how do you know if she gets along well?"

Mu Qingcheng snatched a few melon seeds from Chunyu's hand, ate one, ate it, and refuted what she said.

Having seen the queen, Mu Qingcheng could recognize that woman at a glance, and she was not an easy-going lamp.As the mother of a country, she has no mastery, how to manage the harem, how to mother the world.

"Miss is right. There is no way for the kind and honest people in the palace to stay. There are calculations and conspiracies everywhere in the palace. If the queen is a simple person, she will not recommend herself, and she will not be stable. Sit in the position of the Lord of the Sixth Palace."

Xia Xiang also echoed what Mu Qingcheng said, how many people in the palace are simple?
