[Qing Chuan] I became the queen mother after salted fish

The empress was also aware of the turmoil between concubine Jin and concubine Ning, but the empress did not intervene.

This is just a small matter of bickering among the concubines, and it hasn't reached the point where the empress needs to step in. Moreover, Concubine Ning herself has handled it very well, so she doesn't need to say anything more.

However, she gave Concubine Ning a higher treatment to express her attitude.

Concubine Ning accepted it respectfully, while Concubine Jin was itching with hatred.

The queen glanced at Concubine Jin, feeling a little disgusted towards her in her heart, she is really a shallow-skinned person, and even this little thing makes her jealous.

After thinking about it, the empress still said the right thing: "Jin concubine, last time you copied the scriptures for the empress dowager, you can understand some truths from the scriptures after thinking about it, and you must act more prudently in the future, don't let the empress dowager down Mind."

As soon as Concubine Jin heard this, she knew that the queen was warning her, and she secretly hated her, but she didn't dare to go against the queen, so she could only obediently agree: "Your Majesty is very right."

The queen glanced at Concubine Jin, and saw that she lowered her head, showing no emotion, so she stopped talking and turned her head to care about Concubine Ning again.

Concubine Ning was a very honest person, when the queen asked questions, she would answer honestly, never saying a word.

The queen was still satisfied with Concubine Ning, and after talking for a while, seeing that it was getting late, she let the concubines disperse.

As soon as the concubines left Changchun Palace, Concubine Jin snorted coldly at Concubine Ning, and left first, shaking her sleeves.

Concubine Yi and Concubine Ning fell behind.

Concubine Ning looked at Concubine Jin's back, pursed her lips and said nothing.

Concubine Yi smiled and said: "Concubine Jin is just a fool, sister, don't argue with her."

Concubine Ning also smiled lightly: "Concubine understands, thank you for your consolation."

Concubine Yi glanced at her clan elder sister with a half-smile, she used to be a quiet person, neither prominent nor prominent, unexpectedly she was pregnant, she was really unbelievable.

Concubine Yi suppressed the thoughts in her heart, smiled and nodded: "We are all sisters of the same family, so why be so polite, my Zhongcui Palace is also free in the past, if you are free, you can also come and sit."

Concubine Ning responded gently.

Concubine Yi didn't say any more, she put her foot on her shoulders and headed all the way to the East Sixth Palace.

Concubine Ning had been sending Concubine Yi respectfully to leave, and then she got up, she stood in the same place for a while and watched Concubine Yi's leaving back, then turned around, and said calmly: "Go back to the palace."

Concubine Ning's eldest palace maid, Liandong, was upset, and said in a low voice: "They all have the same status, and my concubine Jin didn't show her face like this, so why should she be patient?"

Concubine Ning lowered her eyes and said after a long time: "I am pregnant now, why should I have a conflict with her?"

Hearing this, Liandong bit her lips, feeling that the empress was still too weak, but the truth was the same, she didn't dare to say anything, she could only sigh, and helped Concubine Ning go to Yongshou Palace.

……

Seeing the end of the year, the palace became lively again, and the empress began to prepare for the New Year's Eve. This year, she used the excuse that she was busy, but slipped out the Dafujin Fucha family, saying that she would help her.

Passed the word to Si Ning, Si Ning did not refuse, and simply agreed.

She could more or less guess what the queen meant, and she used this incident to promote Da Fujin's status.

But this kind of flattery actually didn't play a big role. After all, the status of the elder brother and his wife depended on Mian Yi's intentions, and the role of the queen was very small.

But because of this incident, Concubine Yi became angry. From her point of view, she can be regarded as the second most important person in the palace. Even if the queen wants someone to help her, she should come to her. , Unexpectedly, he surpassed her and found his daughter-in-law.

Concubine Yi thought to herself, most likely because of what happened last time, she offended the queen. The queen didn't show anything on the surface before, but now she finally saw it.

Concubine Yi gritted her teeth, she was still a queen, her eyes were a bit bigger than her nose.

But even though she was disdainful in her heart, Concubine Yi still did a good job on the surface, and she didn't show any dissatisfaction with this matter.

On the contrary, Mrs. Fucha felt a little uneasy, but she was not the one who made the decisions. Since the empress had entrusted her with the errand, she could only continue.

But after returning to Nansan No. [-] Institute, she still decided to talk about it with her elder brother.

Yixuan didn't come back until the afternoon. As soon as he came back, someone reported that Fujin invited his master to discuss matters.

Yixuan paused, knowing that the Fucha family was not reckless, and calling himself to go there must be something wrong, so he nodded: "I see." After speaking, he went back.

After entering the main room, Mrs. Fucha came out to greet her. First, she served Yixuan to change into some homely clothes, and then served tea, and the two sat down.

Yixuan took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and then said: "Is there anything important today?"

Mrs. Fucha smiled and said, "I can't tell what the big deal is, but I'm thinking about it and feel undecided, and I want to hear what my master thinks."

Yixuan nodded: "Then let's talk."

Only then did the Fucha family tell about the errands assigned to him by the queen.

Yixuan was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect that it had something to do with Huang Erniang. He pondered for a while, and then said: "Since the emperor's grandmother has already agreed, then you can just do your errands and don't think too much about it."

Fucha breathed a sigh of relief, and then nodded with a smile: "Since that's the case, I can rest assured."

Seeing what she said, Yixuan also smiled at Fucha: "If you don't understand anything about the palace, just ask the queen mother and grandmother, they are very kind people, don't worry about it. So careful."

Fucha could see that Yixuan wanted to mention something about herself, so she couldn't help feeling soft, but she also understood that these men who work outside don't understand the subtleties of dealing with affairs in the deep palace, but Fucha didn't either. What more to say to him, just smiled and said: "I will remember what the master said."

Looking at his wife's delicate face, Yixuan was also very satisfied.

Although Fucha didn't talk much, he was a smart person, and he was gentle and considerate to himself. Such a Fujin was enough for him.

……

Early the next morning, Yixuan led the Fucha family to the Queen's Palace to pay their respects, and happened to meet Tana was there, Yixuan winked at the Fucha family, and the Fucha family immediately understood what he meant, and pulled Ta Na Na went out to talk, leaving only the queen mother and son in the room.

The queen looked at this scene and probably knew what her son wanted to say, so she was very calm.

After the person went out, he said to Yixuan: "Did your wife tell you what I mean?"

Yixuan nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Emiang has always been considerate in everything she does, so she has a different meaning to bring up this matter at this time."

The queen couldn't help but smiled: "You counted me accurately, I'm afraid that now the whole palace thinks that I did this for your husband and wife. I'm not stupid enough to do this, it's thankless The reason why I brought this up is because I told you Huang Ama a few days ago that I lack energy. I am afraid that I need to find someone to help with this year's festival. I recommended it to you Huang Ama. Concubine Yi, but your Huang Ama himself vetoed this proposal and brought your daughter-in-law out, so I have this proposal."

Yixuan didn't expect this, he glanced at the queen in surprise, thought for a moment and asked, "Does Huang Ama hate Concubine Yi?"

The queen shook her head: "No one can say for sure what your Huang Ama is thinking, but looking at it now, I probably don't like it. But don't worry about the harem, you just take care of it now. Good at studying, good filial piety to your Emma, ​​about the affairs of the harem, I have my mother to decide for you."

Yixuan nodded and said nothing more.

When Da Fujin came in, Yixuan and Dafujin bid farewell and left together. The two returned to the South No. [-] Institute quietly, and Yixuan went to the study room to study. Dafujin was thoughtful, looking at the older brother His expression seemed to be thinking about something, could it be that he was assisting the palace affairs this time, did he have other deep meanings?

Fucha didn't think about it deeply, no matter if he had deep meaning or not, it was not something he could touch now, so he should do his own thing honestly.

……

Although Sining didn't know about the conversation between the queen and Yixuan's mother and son, Sining soon found out from Mianyi that it was Mianyi's intention.

Si Ning was a little surprised, she really didn't expect Mian Yi to dislike Concubine Yi so much, and she didn't expect Mian Yi to value Yi Xuan so much.

Si Ning thought for a while before saying, "Concubine Yi, what did you do that displeased you?"

Mian Yi shook her head: "It's an overstatement to say that she doesn't like it, but she is so selfish and narrow-minded, the right to assist in palace affairs cannot be delegated lightly."

Si Ning nodded, that's why.

After Mian Yi finished talking about this matter, she paused and said: "There is still something to discuss with Er Niang."

Si Ning was taken aback, then looked at Mian Yi: "Just say it."

Mian Yi pursed her lips and said, "I want to confer the title of Baylor on that child of my second younger brother. And Yi Wei, we need to be settled."

Si Ning didn't expect Mian Yi to say this, and couldn't help frowning: "Back then, Mian Ning caused chaos and caused your Empress Ama to die young, so you want to make his heir?"

Mian Yi looked at Si Ning's attitude, and knew that Si Ning was still dissatisfied with Huang Ama's death, but he also understood that Huang Erniang was not the kind of person who vents anger on others, so she sighed and explained in a gentle voice : "Back then, Huang Ama didn't involve Mianning's heirs. Presumably he didn't want to involve his descendants. Now that his son has been on the throne for three years, if he doesn't care about his nephew, I'm afraid it will cause gossip."

Si Ning's emotions were very complicated, and after a long time he finally sighed and said: "Then you can do it according to your own needs, I can't control these things now."

Seeing Si Ning's attitude, Mian Yi hastily confessed: "I dare not, if Er Niang doesn't like it, then the minister will not make them brothers."

But Si Ning shook his head: "I'm not angry, I know you are in a difficult situation, it's not a good reputation to treat your nephew harshly, and there is nothing wrong with those two children, there is no need to get involved in this kind of thing, just seal it up. "

Seeing that Si Ning seemed to be sincere, Mian Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Er Niang is still broad-minded."

Si Ning cast a reproachful look at his son: "You will speak nicely to me."

Mian Yi smiled, knowing that Er Niang really ignored this matter.

……

After the Chinese New Year, Mianyi really made a decree, and named Yigang from the Guerjia family as Baylor, and Yiwei as the Duke of Zhenguo, and finally gave Mianning's two sons a birthright.

When Guerjia received this decree, he was overwhelmed with gratitude.

Ever since she knew that Mianning had done such a thing, in the past few years, she couldn't sleep all night, for fear that the emperor would settle accounts with their mother and son.

Now that her son has been awarded the title, it means that the emperor will never pursue them because of this matter again, and Guerjia's heart is finally relieved.

Even if the title of Baylor is not comparable to the previous county king, but at this point, the Guarjia family does not dare to be greedy, and it is a great event to be able to live well.

And because of the emperor's operation, the harem couldn't help discussing for a few days.

The queen was afraid that the queen mother would be angry because of this matter. After all, in their opinion, the relationship between the queen mother and the first emperor was extraordinary. The first emperor died early because of the trouble caused by the second elder brother, and the queen mother fainted because of this. , no one in the palace dared to mention the second elder brother, but now the emperor conferred the title on the second elder brother's child, who knows what the queen mother will think?

After careful observation for a few days, she found that there was nothing wrong with the queen mother. The queen was relieved and understood in her heart that it seemed that the emperor had made sense of the queen mother before he dared to confer titles on the children of the second elder brother's family. .

Thinking of this, the queen couldn't help sighing in her heart, the emperor is really filial, and such a major court matter would be discussed with the queen mother first.

……

Apart from this incident, after the first month of the lunar year, Mian Yi also conferred the title of Six Palaces, Concubine Ning was conferred the title of Concubine Ning, Lady Zhuang was conferred the title of Concubine Zhuang, and Xiuchang was conferred the title of Concubine Xiu.

Not to mention Concubine Ning, this concubine Zhuang was exactly the princess Yongyan pointed out to Mianyi before, Si Ning seemed to still remember her appearance, she was a gentle and silent girl, she didn't talk much, she was pretty, and she was pretty. Chang Zai, who entered the palace during the draft last year, is lively and loves to laugh, and looks careless.

Si Ning can probably detect the type his son likes, either the taciturn one, or the one who doesn't care much.

But this time Mian Yi didn't give Concubine Jin a promotion, Si Ning was a little surprised, after all Concubine Jin has a second elder brother under her lap, so she has to show some face no matter what.

Later, Si Ning asked Mian Yi, and only then did he know what he was thinking.

"My concubine behaved improperly. I knew that Er Niang didn't like her, so I simply suppressed her position. After all, being a concubine doesn't count as humiliating her."

Si Ning sighed with a smile, although this kid seems to be indifferent to the matter of the harem, but he knows it clearly in his heart.

Sining knows Mianyi's thoughts here, but Jinbi doesn't know it.

Ever since Concubine Ning was made a concubine after knowing that she failed to be promoted, Concubine Jin was very angry.

When the decree came down that day, she threw the only tea set left in the palace to pieces.

Si Xi, the palace maid in front of her, was about to cry: "Your Majesty, this is our last complete tea set."

Concubine Jin pointed at Sixi's face angrily and said, "As the lord of the first palace, don't you even have a tea set? Go to the House of Internal Affairs and ask for it! I'll see who dare not give it!"

Sixi was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and didn't dare to speak, she kept crying in her heart, the empress was greatly stimulated this time, and she didn't know when she would finish her breath.

Concubine Jin sat on the couch panting heavily, as long as she thought that Concubine Ning would be on her head in the future, she would bleed with hatred in her heart.

Why, she just gave birth to a girl, and now she has this in her belly, and she doesn't know the gender, yet the emperor treats her like this.

What about yourself?

She gave birth to an elder brother for the emperor!

Not to mention credit, but also hard work. Is the emperor looking down on her so much?

Concubine Jin was so angry that she was about to cry.

But thinking that she couldn't bow her head in front of Concubine Ning, she held back her tears after all.

Her thoughts were dark, could it be that the emperor knew that this baby was a brother, so he treated Concubine Ning so favorably?

As soon as this thought comes out, it spreads in Jinbi's heart like a weed.

Concubine Jin gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. No way, Concubine Ning can't be so complacent, and she can't give birth to her elder brother so smoothly. If so, then she and the second elder brother, mother and son, may stand on the edge of each other in the future. All the places are gone.

Thinking of this, concubine Jin had countless vicious thoughts in her heart, since concubine Ning's pregnancy can go wrong once, she can go wrong a second time, after all, who knows if she had a difficult labor last time and whether she has taken care of her body well.

Thinking of these words, Concubine Jin's emotions gradually calmed down, and a cold smile flashed across her face.

……

Si Ning doesn't know these things now, after Mian Yi confers the six palaces, she packs the harem directly and goes to Yuanmingyuan together.

Although Concubine Ning was pregnant, she also came here together. Now her belly has been six months old, and she looked pregnant, and she came here carefully, but she didn't hurt anything.

She often comes back to Sining to say hello, because she is very aggressive in her actions, and Sining likes to talk to her.

As time went by, Sining also had some expectations for the little grandson or granddaughter in her stomach.

Because of this expectation, Si Ning persuaded Concubine Ning: "You have such a big belly now, you should take good care of your body, and you don't have to always come to my side."

Concubine Ning pursed her lips and smiled: "The concubine also wants to enjoy the blessing of the empress dowager."

Si Ning shook her head helplessly, she said she was lucky, of course she could sense Concubine Ning's intentions, she just wanted to find herself as a backer.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with this. Living in this palace, everyone has their own thoughts. Although Concubine Ning has become a concubine and is pregnant again, she has no foothold in this palace. Tong Jia's connections are estimated Concubine Yi is holding everything in her hands, she is afraid that she will be irrelevant, if she wants to live a good life and keep this child, she has to find a backer for herself.

She would choose herself, and that was the most natural choice, after all, in this palace, her status was the pinnacle.

Si Ning pondered for a while, and felt that he still couldn't go on like this, and said, "I understand what you mean, how about this, I'll find you a nanny from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to help you raise your baby, so you should feel at ease, right? "

Hearing this, Concubine Ning knew that her little thoughts had been seen through by the queen mother, she felt a little embarrassed for a moment, she stood up and bowed to Si Ning: "If so, I will trouble the queen mother."

Si Ning smiled: "You are pregnant with the emperor's heir, I should worry more."

Concubine Ning moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she couldn't open her mouth, she just got up and gave Si Ning a deep bow.

When Concubine Ning left, Qing Dai couldn't help but said: "My servant looked at Concubine Ning so attentively during this time, and thought it was sincere and filial, but I didn't expect that I also wanted to take shelter under your wings."

Si Ning smiled faintly: "In this palace, it is not a big mistake to want to live a good life. It is normal for Concubine Ning to have such thoughts, so don't be too harsh on her."

Qing Dai sighed: "The servant is worthless for the empress, why bother with these heartless people."

Si Ning shook her head: "She is pregnant, I should take more care of her."

Concubine Ning hurt her body when she was pregnant with the second princess before, if something goes wrong this time, Si Ning is also afraid of accidents.

When Qing Dai heard this, she didn't say any more, she just said: "Then the empress sees, who is the most appropriate to send over?"

Si Ning thought for a while and said: "Send Nanny Tang there, I know her skills, and she is also cautious and flexible, so she should be able to protect Concubine Ning."

Qing Dai complied and went out to spread the message.

……

Early the next morning, Nanny Tang went to Concubine Ning to serve her.

After the news spread, Zi Yuan on the queen's side couldn't help but said: "I used to think she was honest, but now I know how to flatter the queen mother."

The queen just smiled: "She got hurt last time, and I'm afraid she was scared out of her wits. Of course, no one in this palace can believe it. It's not uncommon for her to think about looking for the empress dowager."

The queen didn't take it seriously, but Ziyuan felt wronged for the queen in her heart: "It's also because she has no eyes. You turned against Er Fujin because of her, but now she goes over you to find the empress dowager. She is really a wolf."

The queen didn't say a word, and said after a long time: "It's no wonder she is, even if it is placed on me, she will inevitably think too much."

Seeing that the Empress was in a gloomy mood, Wisteria at the side hurriedly stopped Zi Yuan, and said softly: "Okay, don't talk about these irrelevant things with your empress anymore, Eldest Elder Brother and Da Fujin are coming to your empress today." Greetings, today's dinner has to be decided by the empress."

As soon as the elder brother was mentioned, the queen's mood suddenly improved, and Zi Yuan suppressed her dissatisfaction, and instead made the queen happy.

……

The queen let it go lightly, but Concubine Yi and Concubine Jin didn't let it go so easily.

Concubine Yi was a little annoyed. She had shown favor to Concubine Ning before, but she didn't expect that she would not accept her.

Originally, she was only thought to be ignorant of flattery, but now it seems that this person is really hiding a traitor from the bottom of his heart. He has been fawning on the Queen Mother for a long time, and he doesn't take himself seriously.

Concubine Yi sneered, she wanted to see how much benefit she could get after being courted by the Queen Mother.

As for Concubine Jin, she was a little annoyed, she was thinking about ruining Concubine Ning's child, but she didn't expect Concubine Ning to find the Queen Mother as her backer.

She can't guarantee that she can accomplish something under the eyes of the Queen Mother. Even if she succeeds, she is afraid that she will be found out, and she will be implicated at that time.

Concubine Jin was very angry, but she could only think of a way again.

At this moment, the second elder brother barged in yelling.

"Er Niang! I'm starving to death! I want some snacks!"

When Concubine Jin heard this, her face turned dark, she pulled her son in front of her, and slapped him a few times angrily: "I just know how to eat! When your eldest brother is your age, I don't know how promising he is!"

Yishen pouted with some dissatisfaction: "Brother is so smart, how can I compare with him!"

The anger in Concubine Jin's heart flared up again, they are both fathers, but their own birth is not as good as that of others, how can this convince her.

Concubine Jin glared at her son viciously: "If you study hard on weekdays, you will be no worse than your elder brother!"

Yishen didn't believe this at all, instead he said stubbornly: "Er Niang, don't lie to me, no matter how serious I am, I can't compare with elder brother. There are so many cousins ​​in the study, none of them can compare with elder brother!" It's a little bit of pride to say that.

Concubine Jin was so annoyed by her son that she couldn't help but hit her son twice.

Thanks to this brat's solid skin, these two hammerings felt like tickling. He threw himself on Concubine Jin's leg, and started rolling around: "Mother, I'm hungry, I want to eat!"

Concubine Jin almost lost her breath when she was thrown like this, and hurriedly grabbed the kang table to stabilize her figure. She couldn't help but wanted to beat and scold her son again, but suddenly, a thunder flashed through her mind, and she looked up. The hand that got up, slowly put it down.

Concubine Jin looked at her son in a daze, countless thoughts flashed through her mind, and her face began to be tangled and uneasy.

After a long time, she finally gritted her teeth, grabbed her son's shoulders, forced a smile on her face, and said softly, "Good boy, are you really hungry? Er Niang will ask someone to get you some snacks. "

Yishen looked at Er Niang's appearance, and couldn't help shivering. Er Niang's current appearance is so scary!
