[Qing Chuan] Gongdou system of black lotus

The corners of Concubine Chun's lips curled up secretly, and she gloated at Gu Qianqian with a look of seeing a joke.

She was sitting on Gu Qianqian's left, and she couldn't avoid Gu Qianqian's eyes in every move. Gu Qianqian knew that she made such an expression on purpose to embarrass her.

Gu Qianqian didn't even bother to look at her, raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked directly at the queen mother, "Empress mother, what do you mean by this? How come the concubine doesn't understand how to take care of the fetus of the imperial concubine?"

When the queen mother heard her words, the anger that was about to be vented suddenly stagnated. She looked at Gu Qianqian with anger in her eyes, as if she couldn't believe that Concubine Xian dared to question her.

Seeing her expression, Gu Qianqian couldn't help sneering in her heart. This queen mother is too self-righteous. In the past, she had nothing to find fault with, and all kinds of tossing the original body, but the original body can bear it. It is because the original body has a good personality and has a filial piety. Under pressure, how dare you confront the queen mother.But she is different.Her temperament is not her fault, if you dare to put it on her head, don't blame her for not giving face.

"Concubine Xian, how could you talk like that to Queen Mother!" The queen looked worried, as if she was angry at Concubine Xian's disrespect.

But Gu Qianqian understands that she is just trying to make a fuss with her pure heart. These days, she has made it difficult for the empress. Now, the empress has the opportunity to make it difficult for her, so of course she will not miss it.

She knew the queen's tricks, but she frowned, her clear eyebrows seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and she looked more fairy-like, "Empress empress, could it be that my concubine said something wrong?"

"Are you right?" Before the queen could speak, Concubine Chun couldn't wait to save Gu Qianqian's face, her eyes were shining red, "The empress dowager asked you a question, but you have a lot of words to resist, even Lord Long Live is filial and respectful to the empress dowager, you are a good concubine, it is a big show, could this be your Ulanara family's tutor?"

Gu Qianqian didn't want to talk to her at first, but since she involved Ulanara, Gu Qianqian couldn't just sit idly by.If she ignores it, if the word of Concubine Chun spreads today, the girl from the Ulanara family will never want to marry.The people in the Ulanara family are very kind to her, and she doesn't want them to cause any trouble.

"I don't know what capacity Sister Chunfei is questioning my sister?" Gu Qianqian turned her eyes to look at Chunfei, with cold anger rolling under those dark eyes, "The concubine is talking to the empress, and it is the empress who is asking for advice." Empress, Sister Chunfei interrupted us, could it be that this is your Su family's tutor?"

Concubine Chun's face immediately flushed red, and she was furious, not only because of Gu Qianqian's refutation of her, but also because of what Gu Qianqian said about Su Shi.Concubine Chun is a Han woman, and Su is indeed her surname, but she has always been ashamed of it. In the fourth year of Qianlong, after Long Live Lord carried their family into the Zhengbai Banner, Concubine Chun has always used Su Jia as her family name. Surname, especially don't like others to mention her original surname.

Gu Qianqian deliberately said that she was the Su family, which is to expose the fault directly.

"I'm just out of anger, and I was confused by you for a while, so I opened my mouth." Concubine Chun raised two distant eyebrows, her forehead twitched, her face turned yellow from anger, if this was not in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, But in some remote palace, Concubine Chun just wanted to roll up her sleeves and go up to grab Concubine Hua Xian's face.

"Sister also knows that she is confused." Gu Qianqian said softly, although she didn't laugh, but there was a smile in her voice, which made people even more annoying.

"Enough." Seeing that Concubine Chun was going crazy, the queen turned her head and yelled at Concubine Chun to prevent her from continuing to embarrass herself. She turned her face and looked at Gu Qianqian, "Concubine Chun was wrong to interrupt just now, but she There is nothing wrong with that.”

Gu Qianqian blinked her eyes, "Empress, you have misunderstood the concubine. The concubine is not contradicting the empress dowager. The concubine really doesn't understand. The concubine was ordered by the Lord Long Live back then, and the concubine only said to help the concubine to help the empress dowager." , I have never asked my concubine to take care of the fetus of the imperial concubine. And the empress, you—” She paused for a moment, with a little cunning in her black eyes, “never ordered my concubine to do this job. How important is the fetus of the imperial concubine, sir How dare the concubine make a claim to interfere in this matter. Therefore, the concubine really doesn't understand what this matter has to do with the concubine."

The queen choked on her words, she was as smart as her in an instant, and she didn't know how to answer.

The empress dowager was already angry, but now after listening to Gu Qianqian's "self-defense", the anger in her heart became even stronger, "Even so, you are helping to manage the harem, but you also have your responsibility."

Gu Qianqian lowered her eyebrows slightly, "What the Empress Dowager said is true."

She promised so quickly that the Queen Mother couldn't even utter the words she wanted to question.

The queen mother looked at her, not only disgusted, but also deep fear in her eyes. When she was outside, she had secretly raised her vigilance against Concubine Xian, knowing that she should not look at her with the eyes of the past, but now, returning to the palace is not enough. In half a day, she realized that the cunning and difficult to deal with this woman in front of her was the top three among the people she met in her life.

Even the meticulous and ruthless queen never made her feel this powerless.

"Since this is the case, the concubine has no choice but to receive the punishment together with the empress." Gu Qianqian said, "The concubine is responsible for helping the empress. If he is not good at things, he should be punished."

She accentuated the word "help".

The implication was that she was just helping the queen, if she was to be punished, then the queen should be punished too, and as the real manager of the harem, the queen had to be punished harder than her.

Gu Qianqian thought, if she could really see the queen being punished, then she would be willing to receive some punishment. After all, someone was worse than her, and that person was the queen.

However, this involves a problem, does the queen mother dare to punish the queen severely?To be precise, does she have this right, does she have this qualification?

Punishing concubines is different from punishing queens.No matter how favored the concubines are, they are nothing more than noble concubines in the final analysis, and even noble concubines are nothing more than concubines.But the queen is different. The queen is the main palace, the queen of a country, and has the right and status.If the queen is to be severely punished, even Qianlong has to weigh the consequences of the punishment, because if the reason is unreasonable and spread out, the scholars and common people will have objections, and the censor will write a letter, which can be described as pulling the trigger. Move the whole body, and there will be endless troubles.

Of course, it would be different if the queen's reputation was ruined.But our Empress Fucha has a good reputation both in the former court and in the world.The Fucha family is also a famous family, and many members of the clan lead errands.

Therefore, if Empress Fucha is punished, then the Empress Dowager will have to bear a series of troubles in the future. Among other things, the Fucha family alone cannot be afforded by the Empress Dowager, nor Niu Colu's family.The Niu Gulu family, who was born as the queen mother, is not worth mentioning compared to the Fucha family.

Moreover, on the other hand, the queen mother actually has no rights. Regardless of the queen mother's status, how filial Qianlong is on weekdays is all false.As an extremely suspicious monarch, Qianlong did not give the queen mother any rights. He gave the queen mother honor and honor, and he was considerate in every way, like a filial son, but this was just his means of governing the country. From the first day of the emperor, the empress dowager had no chance to touch the power of the palace, and even when the empress was pregnant with the dragon seed, the imperial concubine and pure concubine were temporarily replaced.

The Empress Dowager's face was sallow with anger, her wrist with the Buddhist beads was trembling because of anger, she was full of anger and had nowhere to vent, the muscles on the thin cheekbones even twitched slightly, how dare she!How dare you speak to her like that!

"What a concubine Xian, these days when Ai's family is not in the palace, Concubine Xian seems to be a different person." The queen mother tightly clenched the beads on her wrist, and her thin fingers were imprinted on those beads, her knuckles were so hard. white.

"After all, the concubine is a person who has walked through the gate of hell, so she should be sensible." Gu Qianqian said with an elegant smile, "If not, I am sorry for this gift from God."

It's really a disaster for thousands of years.The empress dowager felt annoyed in her heart, she rubbed the Buddhist beads on her wrist, and slowly calmed down the anger in her heart with the lustrous Buddhist beads. Originally, she wanted to take this opportunity to send off Concubine Xian again and again. Kneeling, this kind of punishment is the most embarrassing and humiliating.

But now this idea is dead, if Concubine Xian is to be punished, the Empress cannot let it go.

But she couldn't punish the queen severely.

"The empress fined her salary for one year, and the concubine Xian fined her salary for half a year, so as to imitate others." The queen mother almost said these words through gritted teeth.

Gu Qianqian and the queen knelt down one after another, "The concubine will be punished by the empress dowager."

However, the penalty was half a year, and the eyes of the noble concubine and others showed regret.This half-year salary is nothing to them, as concubines, all they eat and use are treasures, so they don't care about the hundreds of taels of silver.

What is the difference between punishment and no punishment.

"The mourning family is exhausted, you all go down first." The teacher was unfavorable, and the queen mother was not in the mood to talk to everyone, so she waved her hand and issued the order to expel the guests.

Everyone stood up and said goodbye sensibly.

When leaving the Compassionate Ning Palace, the empress turned her head and took a deep look at Gu Qianqian, she said lightly: "Today is only the first day that the Queen Mother came back."

She didn't know the beginning and the end of her words, and the others were probably at a loss.

But as Gu Qianqian, who has fought her several times, she quickly understood what she meant. The empress meant that the Queen Mother just came back today, and there will be plenty of opportunities to take care of her in the future.

The corners of Gu Qianqian's lips curled up, and her already beautiful face was instantly as dazzling as a glimpse of light, "Empress Empress, you lost."

After she finished speaking, she bowed her knees and saluted without looking at the queen's slightly changed face, and left on the chariot.

"Your Majesty." Looking at the empress' ugly face, Mammy Liu was a little worried.

"I'm fine, let's go back." The queen tried to restore her former appearance, but she couldn't get rid of the boredom in her heart. The words of Concubine Xian kept ringing in her mind.

It's not that she lost. When she and Concubine Xian needed to involve the Queen Mother, it meant that she couldn't deal with Concubine Xian by herself.

Empress Fucha has been smooth and smooth for half her life, and has never been humiliated like she is today.
