Chapter 317: The Best Shield
Because the empress was lying on the couch, Feng Yin was handed over to Yun Fenghuang. All the affairs of the six palaces in the past two days were handled by the imperial concubine, so there was not much time to spend on the heirs.
After Zhaoqing came now, he felt a little wronged: "Mother and concubine are very busy these two days, and I have come to pay my respects three times, but I haven't seen you!"
Yun Fenghuang smiled and said: "The concubine mother is not for your own good... Your empress mother is ill, if the concubine mother does not step up to take care of the sixth palace, this huge palace is in a mess, and if you want nothing, can you live comfortably? ?”
"As long as mother and concubine spend more time with Erchen, Erchen won't want this or that!" Zhao Qing held her arm and acted like a baby. This is the truth, after all, he was born with everything he should have, whether it is Zhaoqing or the King of Qin, at this age I really don't care much about objects.
"That can't be done." Yun Fenghuang calmly responded to her daughter's sweet words, and said softly, "We Zhaoqing are precious, mother and concubine, I can't wait to give you all the best things in the world! How can I let you live?" Is it wrong to have this or that?"
Zhaoqing said: "My son is afraid that I will tire my mother and concubine!"
"As long as the concubine sees you all doing well, she won't feel tired at all!"
"It's really hard work, mother concubine!"
"What's the trouble? As long as it's for you, the concubine is willing!"
"Mother, you are so kind!"
"My son is becoming more and more sensible." Yun Fenghuang coaxed a few words with a smile, and then asked about her basic necessities for the past two days. Although her confidants regularly reported these things, in order to show her concern for her daughter, she still carefully After some investigation, and a few tactful pointers to the scheming city, it was time to get down to business, "When the palace was sealed earlier, the former courtiers offered some people to serve your father. This year, the harem resumes access. They are not Have you come here to see your mother and have you been formally conferred? However, eight of the newcomers were sent to the Huzhu Palace by your concubine An. I heard that they are not doing well in the past two days... "
Zhaoqing curled his lips and muttered: "It's good to have a bad life, those are vixen, they will confuse Father! So much so that Father doesn't come to see us very much now!"
Yun Fenghuang's gentle smile turned cold and stern in an instant, and he regained his composure, and said with a smile: "Your child's family... Where did you hear these gossips?"
After hearing Zhaoqing’s talk, she heard some maidservants discussing privately in the women’s school. She glanced at Qingren next to her, who hurriedly went out to make arrangements, and then said nonchalantly, “What do you know about a poor maidservant? Emperor daughter, don't listen to their nonsense! You don't even think about who in the three palaces and six courtyards in this palace is not serving your father. It is the mother and concubine. When you enter the palace, it is how many years your father has been married. Could it be, Do you think the mother concubine is also a vixen?"
Zhao Qing quickly said: "Mu Concubine is Mu Concubine, how can those people compare?"
"I know you are the most considerate of my mother and concubine, but if this is the case, don't talk nonsense in the future!" Yun Fenghuang said solemnly, "The left and right are just things to relieve your father and emperor. Look at your mother and concubine, look at your mother and queen, who is it?" Do you care? You are the royal princess of golden branches and jade leaves. So far, you are the only one among your sisters who has been sealed, which shows how much your father thinks of you! You should have a royal demeanor in your speech and demeanor. How can you be led by the nose by a few servants? Just listen to the wind rain!"
Silly daughter, of course I am happy for you to protect me as your mother with double standards, but don't be so straightforward!
When it was passed on later, it was Bengong who others should be careful about, so it didn't hurt Bengong's reputation!
Besides, she specially asked Zhao Qing to come over this time because she had something to order.
After teaching Zhaoqing a lesson, and seeing that the daughter accepted it humbly, Yun Fenghuang said, "Your Concubine An has always been a quick-tempered son. In the past two days, the newcomers have had a very bad time under her hands! Concubine Concubine Mu I can't stand it. But your mother and concubine An are the nieces of your grandmother Yuan Huang. In order to save face for your grandmother Yuan Huang, even your father and emperor should not be too restrictive to your mother and concubine An... Mother Concubine, I am thinking about this matter, it is not convenient for mother and concubine to say anything, and it is not convenient for your father and emperor to say anything, but you are a child, so if you yell a few words, your Grandmother Yuan is always embarrassed to care about you."
With a low voice, he told his daughter such and such, and seeing Zhaoqing nod repeatedly, and asked her to repeat it again after explaining.
This empress is really talented, she heard the words without thinking, she narrated them verbatim, and she also spontaneously added her tone and expression, so serious that Yun Fenghuang couldn't help but leaned over and kissed her, and said with a smile: "My son Sure enough! Concubine mother has you, I don't know how much peace of mind she has!"
After Zhaoqing was sent down to prepare in this way, Xie Kuo, who took a step back and had been waiting outside for a while, was called to him.
With Xie Kuo, there is no need to spend too much time and energy maintaining friendship like with Zhaoqing. Yun Fenghuang said bluntly: "Concubine An has always been cruel, and this time she suffered a lot under the hands of the big Wen family and the little Wen family." Fortunately, the eight newcomers who are assigned to the Huzhu Palace will probably be unlucky. Originally, His Majesty had never said anything about this matter, and this Palace didn't want to care about it. But after thinking about it, the Gu family made a big disturbance in the Chongchang Palace because of Concubine An. Now all kinds of Concubine An's behaviors are publicized. If you help the newcomers at this moment, it will be beneficial to fame. Of course, this matter, whether it is my palace or you, it is not good to get involved directly. Otherwise , there is something wrong with the loving mother empress dowager, that is, a good thing has turned into a bad thing."
"That's why I intend to let Zhaoqing go."
"She is the eldest daughter of His Majesty, she has always been loved by His Majesty, and she is also young. Even if there is something wrong with the loving mother Empress Dowager because of her, it is understandable."
After all, Empress Dowager Yuan is so old, if she wants to argue with the only seven-year-old imperial daughter, she feels embarrassed, Chunjia protects her, and she may feel sorry for her daughter in her heart.
In such a situation, Yunfenghuang asked Zhaoqing to speak out about his leg injury, and promised that Chunjia would feel sorry for him.
"Just now, my palace has explained to Zhaoqing, but you know, Zhaoqing is an emperor, whether she does such a thing or not, it will not affect her future status, the key is you." Yunfeng Having said this, Huang looked at Xie Kuo meaningfully.
Xie Kuo's heart was shocked, he quickly knelt down, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, thank you for your support..."
"You and I are close relatives. It is only natural for me to plan for you. Why do you need to thank me?" Yun Fenghuang shook his head, helped her up, and said slowly, "I originally asked Zhaoqing to give credit to you. You, it's nothing. Zhaoqing's sex - Zibengong knows it well, and won't care about it. But because of the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, it's not easy to do this. If you want to take advantage of this opportunity, you have to be tactful... Aren't you guys going to the Wei Mansion for a banquet tomorrow? At that time, try to reveal one thing or two, that is, the palace is very sympathetic to the newcomers, but because of the empress dowager's loving mother, you dare not do anything. And you and your sister , there are Zhaoqing and others, some of them want to complete this matter for my palace."
"The whole Wei family was scared out of their wits by Sejong's seizure of the heirloom in his later years. Even if he usually flatters you all, this kind of thing must be just talking about other things!"
"It's nothing, you just act like you want to find an ally, it's best to come up with some ideas..."
"After things like this are successful, they must spontaneously make a name for you."
Yun Fenghuang was a little regretful, "You are a hearty person, and I am willing to cultivate you alone. But Your Majesty appreciates Meng'er who has no city. So I can't praise you too much, otherwise, it will hinder you future, understand?"
Xie Kuo was also very regretful, she felt that she was no worse than Xie Meng in every aspect, and she could understand that her cousin preferred Xie Meng, because Xie Meng was her own niece and she was her cousin's niece. But the emperor also prefers Xie Meng, she feels a little bit wronged in her heart. But he didn't dare to show it, and only obediently agreed, and then he resigned with a complicated mood.
After she left, Yun Fenghuang asked Qingren with a cold face: "Did you find out the gossiping things at the female school? What's going on?"
Although the matter between Concubine An and the newcomers was not a secret in the former court and the harem, Yun Fenghuang had requested that such dirty things should not be allowed to dirty the ears of the heirs until they were ten years old!
This aspect is due to the consideration that none of the children other than the fifteenth prince are her own. Except for the seventh prince, the other three princes still regard her as their biological mother. , Yun Fenghuang is strictly guarding against people's talkativeness, so if they are allowed to listen to all kinds of news at will, who knows if people will take advantage of the loopholes and let the children know their life experience in advance?
On the other hand, he really thought about these children.
Yun Fenghuang's own wrist and city are enough to protect his children, and he doesn't require them to charge forward and fight against each other at a young age. She hoped that before the children were ten years old, they could learn some scheming, but the main focus was still on their schoolwork. After the age of ten, slowly replenish the means. Getting in touch with messy people and things too early will inevitably distract your mind, and more importantly, change your temperament, which will be unfavorable in the future.
...After all, she doesn't want to deal with children like her when she was a child.
She herself is a careful, deep and jealous master, and she knows how difficult it is to get along with such a person.
Therefore, Yun Fenghuang still hoped that Qin Wang Zhaoqing's seventh and ninth princes would all look grand and dignified...at least for her.
Just now I heard Zhaoqing skillfully call the newcomer a vixen, how could he not get to the bottom of it?
"It has been found out that they are two servant girls serving in the tea room. They lost their heads and even hid in the flowers under the railing and chatted among the flowers during the recess of the women's school." The Qing said cautiously, "Behind them It was not instigated by anyone, but it just happened to happen. The servant girl has already explained to the female school that these two people will never appear in front of His Highness again. Moreover, the steward of the female school has also guaranteed that they will go to Nothing like this will ever happen again!"
Yun Fenghuang said slowly: "I explained earlier in the morning, and the manager over there also said that I will do my best and will not be negligent in the slightest. Now such a thing still happens, but what promise will I give me next time? Let the steward go and get ten boards by himself! If there is another time, I will never let you down!"
This time it wasn't a big deal, but if she opened her mouth, maybe in two days, several children would cry and ask her who her biological mother was!
Thinking of that possibility, Yun Fenghuang's face became even more ugly, "Tell the steward again, if you are incompetent, tell me sooner! I have never rubbed sand in my eyes, let alone waste!"
... The imperial concubine's seizure was quickly reported to the queen, and the next day when Yun Fenghuang went to visit the queen, the queen asked casually: "Yesterday you had a seizure with the steward of the women's school? I heard it was because of Zhaoqing?"
"That's not it!" Yun Fenghuang frowned slightly, and said, "How old is Zhaoqing? I never allow anyone to whisper in front of her, I just teach her to go to school carefree. At her age Aside from going to school, is there any other important thing? Some people say such nonsense in front of her, how can I not be angry? I told the steward at the beginning, look at some of the servants! The concubine asked Zhaoqing to go to school, to learn serious lessons, not to listen to those bosses and parents! The steward promised well, but in the end he didn't do it. Madam, should I be a concubine? Punishment?!"
Of course, the empress would not clash with a concubine who had a good relationship with her recently because of a steward, she nodded upon hearing this, agreed that the steward deserved it, and asked about Zhaoqing's recent situation before letting the concubine leave.
After the noble concubine left, Gu Zhen said: "The noble concubine raised Zhaoqing as her own daughter. When the palace changed, I heard that she brought Xiao Qi with me. I thought she was just like your majesty. Zhaoqing is good, it's just for show."
"Your Majesty, don't forget that Her Royal Highness Princess Zhaoqing was not born to the imperial concubine and empress." One of her close servants had a sensible person, and she immediately reminded her, "If Her Royal Highness listened to all kinds of right and wrong when she was a child, she would have developed a sensitive and thoughtful personality. , do you think you can be united with the imperial concubine in the future? After all, the biological mother of Princess Zhaoqing is still there, and she is also the ninth concubine, and she was once suppressed by the imperial concubine."
Gu Zhen couldn't help being confused, and sighed: "You said that, I can't see clearly, is the imperial concubine good or bad?"
Not only did she feel uncertain, Wei Shi also had similar doubts at the moment.
