Although the news did not spread, there was never a shortage of well-informed people in this palace, especially when the battle report was sent to the capital this autumn, the weather in the palace immediately changed.

The most obvious thing is that the Empress Dowager's attitude towards noble Zhu is three points more cordial than before.And the Empress Dowager still treated Jia Yan that way.No, today the Empress Dowager greeted Mr. Zhu with a happy face as usual, and then said to Jia Yan who had just confinement: "Queen, I won't talk about you in the past. But at first you I brought it up, are you prepared for the selection of concubines for the emperor?" @无限好文,all in Jinjiang Literature City

Jia Yan said: "Mother, please ask me. My son has already consulted Wansui for his opinion on this matter. Wansui said there is no rush..."

The Empress Dowager immediately said with displeasure: "Of course the emperor is not in a hurry! Empress! This is your business!"

Seeing that the Empress Dowager was displeased, the three concubines below all stood up in unison.

Jia Yan said: "Please make it clear, mother-in-law and empress."

The Supreme Empress said angrily: "Empress! How do you want me to express it? I have already made it so clear!"

Jia Yan said: "Mother, the palace is no different than the outside, and my son is a queen, so it is natural that Long live is the most important thing in everything. In everything, my son will ask Wan live's opinion first, and never dare to be self-reliant."

The Empress Dowager was speechless by Jia Yan, and she said after a long while, "Empress, are you perfunctory to me?"

"My son doesn't dare."

"Then what do you mean? You brought up the matter of choice first!"

"The minister is only responsible for putting forward opinions, and the final decision depends on the meaning of Long Live."

The Empress Dowager stared angrily.

The queen puts long live as the most important thing, and obeys the emperor's opinion in everything, which can't be wrong.

"Queen, the emperor gave you a fief, don't think you are different."

"Mother and empress don't worry, I know this. Long live wants to control the Yellow River, but he is afraid that he will spend money on two things but finish less than half of it, so he uses this compromise method."

In the past, without being dissuaded by her son, Concubine Zhou De might have jumped out to help Empress Dowager Jia Yan, but today, Concubine Zhou De chose to remain silent.

Concubine Zhao Jing never dared to challenge the palace, whether it was the former queen or the current one, she never dared to challenge the dignity of the queen, so it goes without saying.

Zhu Guiren, on the other hand, prided himself on his status and would never do such a thing. Therefore, for a while, the palace of the magnificent Empress Dowager became quiet.

The empress was even more angry: "Empress, are you using the emperor as a shield?"

Jia Yan had no choice but to kneel down: "Mother and empress calm down, my son dare not."

"What are you afraid of?"

Concubine Zhao Jing hurriedly pleaded, saying: "Your Majesty, although the selection of concubines is for Long Live, it is a matter between the royal family and the courtiers. The Queen's Majesty should first ask Long Live for advice, which is also the Queen's prudence."

Concubine Zhou De also said: "Yes, Your Majesty. The empress and empress chooses a harem for Long Live, and the ones she chooses are all fourth-rank and fifth-rank official ladies and noble daughters. People like us can't compare."

When Concubine Zhou De said this, her tone was a bit sour.

As the mother of the fourth prince who has grown up for many years, Concubine Zhou De also followed the current emperor from the hidden residence.At that time, Concubine Zhou De's natal family was just a petty official of the eighth rank, but she didn't want to give birth to a beautiful daughter.The Zhou family also had ideas, specially sent money to send their daughter to the palace, and wanted to send it to the palace of Prince Lao Yizhong, who was still the prince at that time.As a result, Concubine Zhou De didn't get what she wanted. Instead, she served the Empress Dowager who was still Jieyu for a few years, and was then given her adopted son by the Empress.

Concubine Zhou De also knew that she was getting old and could no longer serve her bed, but her niece from her natal family was just right in age, and her natal family also intended to send this niece into the palace.

If Concubine Zhou De could choose, Concubine Zhou De would also like to directly reject her natal family.Too bad she can't.She didn't even dare to tell the people around her the suffering here.

When the Empress Dowager heard about it, she became more and more uncomfortable.

She felt that Concubine Zhou De, who had always been one with her, had betrayed her, and she had lost all face.Therefore, the tone was very bad and said: "Don't you know anything about this palace? Zhu Mingcheng has already submitted the paperwork for returning to Beijing to visit relatives. How could Wansui let the Ministry of Rites and Zongzheng Temple prepare to choose at this time? Empress, don't you Was it on purpose?"

Jia Yan immediately said: "Mother and Empress, you have wronged my son. General Zhu submitted a family visit report. How could this kind of thing get to my son's ears for no reason? If you don't say it for a long time, if you don't say it, the nobleman will say it. It's absolutely impossible to know..."

The Empress Dowager said: "So the emperor told you."

Jia Yan said: "Mother and Empress, how could Wansui tell my ministers this? Besides, choosing a concubine for Wansui and General Zhu's return to Beijing are two completely irrelevant things. Is it okay to look at other people's eyes? That would be too insulting to Long Live."

When Jia Yan said this, the Empress Dowager stared closely at Jia Yan, but she saw that Jia Yan's expression was as usual, and there was no clue, so she couldn't help being more puzzled. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

The Empress Dowager began to suspect that Jia Yan dug a hole for her.

Thinking about it this way, the Empress Dowager lost her temper even more.

I just heard her say: "Since the queen also said that choosing a concubine has nothing to do with General Zhu's going to Beijing, then let's start like this. I don't care about other things, but during the Chinese New Year, I hope to see It's very lively in the palace."

In the eyes of the Supreme Empress, this young empress was really too cunning.She actually had a fifty-day confinement and wanted to get away with it.

The Empress Dowager said that it was really inconvenient for her to open her mouth when the empress was confinement, but now that the empress is confinement, she can't serve the emperor. , Either the maid came up, or the palace entered the palace five years ago.Therefore, it is indeed time to enter the palace.

And this is the queen's responsibility and obligation.
