Vol 4 Chapter 242: Ask for advice

"The Queen Mother?" Gu Zhen was startled and said, "What can the Queen Mother do now?"
Even when the Ji clan was in power, the Empress Dowager would not take care of things after Xiaozong became the throne. Not to mention that after Chunjia took office, the power status of the empress dowager has gone from bad to worse. She is still alive and her only role is to make those who suspect the emperor be cruel, first punish the Ji family and then remove the Yuan family. Now she is sculpting the Gu family again. It is the people who specialize in treating relatives, and think that the young emperor is still a bit of a bottom line.
This means that the Queen Mother Yuan Qu is gone, otherwise Gu Zhen would rather ask for these two heads, which is more reliable than the Queen Mother, isn't it?
"Niang, the former mother-in-law empress dowager and the mother empress dowager have a deep relationship with your majesty, but in the legal system, they are the elders of the Fuyang king's lineage and are not qualified to intervene in the sixth house." The close attendant reminded, "it is the emperor. The queen mother, that is your majesty’s grandmother. This grandson’s back house has caused a disturbance. You are the most generous. You can't bear the concubine's confinement and feel sorry for the concubine Jing, and don't want to disturb Your Majesty, who is busy with government affairs, at this moment, you go to greet the Empress Dowager, isn't it natural?"
Gu Zhen hesitated: "I just don't know if your Majesty would not like it too much?"
But then I think about the empress dowager too low-key in the past two years. If you ask for peace, it is still a question of whether people want to meet or not.
She is not Chunjia, the Empress Dowager is not willing to meet, and she has to.
Either it’s better to take a trip, when the time comes, the empress dowager will either agree or not, anyway, it’s a little bit to be able to delay the time... Maybe this time someone will poke the matter to the front, Chunjia has to deal with it personally, she doesn’t need her. Is the queen embarrassed?
So Gu Zhen ordered people to prepare phoenix and go to Qingci Palace.
To her surprise, the Empress Dowager readily let her in.
"The queen is really a rare visitor." Speaking of it, the harem hasn't seen the Queen Mother for a long time. The woman with the most noble status today has a lot of white hair. It can be seen that no matter how lavishly such a life is, the outsider The death of the niece and granddaughter is suffering.
However, the empress dowager's eyes were still piercing, and her spirit was okay. She avoided the empress's courtesy and ordered people to make tea. Her tone was casual, but her expression was a little curious.
This kind of curiosity made Gu Zhen feel a bit contrary.
how to say?
If the empress dowager is sad, gloomy, embarrassed, angry, or even acrimonious... it can be understood.
Or even stupid?
But curious about this emotion...
Gu Zhen said in his heart, I really don't know how the emperor grandmother still came out curiously now?
She suppressed this emotion, smiled, and said in a few words the course of the matter: Of course, after deducting the section where she planted the concubine Wanfei Jingfei, she only said that she did find those things, but after a thorough investigation, she found that it was actually Concubine Wanfei Jingfei. It was done by the people under her hand, and Princess Jing did not know it.
"This is the matter between the concubines, the queen should be judged by you." The queen mother listened, smiled faintly, and said, "but what do you come to find this old bone in the Ai family?"
Gu Zhen originally wanted to say that he could not make a decision, so he wanted to ask the emperor's grandmother to be the lord. The words came to his lips, and the soul was blessed to the soul. Suddenly he got up and worshiped her, and respectfully said: "Although the grand-daughter-in-law was born in the Gu family, but the Gu family lintel Originally inferior to the Ji family, besides, the grand-daughter-in-law and the family had never had the idea of ​​becoming the phoenix before. Therefore, the grand-daughter-in-law is dull and far less intelligent than the queen. I also asked the emperor and grandmother to show mercy to the grand-daughter-in-law, how to be a queen Can the sixth house be peaceful and share the worries for your majesty?"
The empress dowager knew Gu Zhen's original intentions, but she was a little surprised when she said that, her expression was a little weird, and she said: "Outsiders all say to me the three generations of Phoenix Masters of the Ji family, rich and honorable! But you should understand. For the three generations of Phoenix Masters Ji, the ending is not good! Both Shenger and Ling Zi failed to die. It is the current situation of the Ai family, outsiders don’t know, don’t you know it? You can see the Ai family. Human experience may not be of any use."
"Don't dare to lie to the emperor and grandmother, the manners of the three generations of phoenix masters of the Ji clan, the front is in the harem, no one can or forget what you have seen." Gu Zhen respectfully said, "If granddaughter-in-law can learn a ten thousandth, it is also Satisfied!"
This is her truth.
After the three generations of phoenix masters of the Ji family may not be the kind of virtues recorded in the history books, they all have selfishness and cruel calculations.
But their defeat, in the final analysis, was the impact of Ji's collapse.
When it comes to being a queen, these three are actually very qualified.
After all, from the Empress Dowager to the commoner Ji Sheng to Ji Lingzi after the Yuan Dynasty, they all managed to manage the sixth house by themselves, and the overall situation was stable. No longer like this, the favorite concubine relied on the emperor’s love to openly bully another high position. The palace can only find excuses to hide in the palace not to show up, so as not to set the fire on the body.
Gu Zhen did not expect to learn Ji Lingzi completely.
One is that the Empress Dowager cannot teach an outsider wholeheartedly; the other is that Ji Sheng and Ji Lingzi were both born and cultivated by the family as future queens. How can Gu Zhen start to learn at this time can be compared ? Most importantly, Gu Zhen knew in his heart that although Chunjia despised her for being stupid, she was at ease because of her stupidity.
She asked for advice from the Empress Dowager, mainly because she wanted to be less embarrassed in the future.
I didn’t expect to say that she would follow the management of the Sixth House from now on... Then it is estimated that she is about to go to the end of Shang Ji Lingzi...
"..." The Queen Mother was silent, and after a while, she said, "The Queen doesn't need to be like this. The Lamentation family knows your plan. It just feels that the imperial concubine's move will make you feel embarrassed and worried that you will encounter similar things again. In fact, you can’t be blamed for this. After all, you know, starting from the first emperor of Shenzong, Emperor Xiaozong, these two emperors were all enamored with their predecessors and didn’t linger on the harem. In the harem, there is no such thing as an allergic concubine."
Not to mention Yun Fenghuang, a favorite concubine who once dominated the private room and was ambitious and willful. During the time of Emperor Xiaozong of Shenzong, it was probably because the emperor's mind was on the political affairs. In the harem, except for the queen of the palace, the concubines had no sense of existence.
For example, the birth mother of the regent Prince Xiang Ruoji was supposed to be unfavorable. At any rate, she gave birth to one of the only two princes of the Shenzong. This was only a few decades ago. There were still alive people at that time. Has it been forgotten? But... Gu Zhen really couldn't remember the last name of this lord, what position he was when he was alive, and what sadness he was after he left.
Gu Zhen was a little disappointed for a while, but also a little comforting: Look at it, the old phoenix masters who have been three generations of phoenix masters have said in person, the current situation can not be blamed for this palace.
The well-respected three generations of phoenix masters can be regarded as qualified queens simply because they have a good fate and have not met a favorite concubine like Yun Fenghuang.
Oh, Ji Lingzi actually met.
Even Yun Fenghuang was the phoenix master pulling it up with one hand in the early days.
Had it not been for Ji Lingzi's protection, Chunjia would have prepared Yun Fenghuang first...
But before Ji Lingzi left the palace, although Yun Fenghuang had become a favorite concubine, he hadn't been so unscrupulous now.
If Ji Lingzi is still sitting in the Phoenix seat now, she probably has nothing to do with Yun Fenghuang... After this idea emerged, Gu Zhen suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. 678 read novels.678kxs.

The empress dowager saw it, but just smiled and said: "Today, the wise martial arts are the blessing of the Gongxiang clan, but the emperor is also a human, and everyone always has his own preferences. Compared with the emperor of the past, today is actually very good. Okay. He obviously loves and values ​​the imperial concubine very much, but he has been pressing to keep the imperial concubine from going too far... Since he didn't let anyone show up, it can be seen that he acquiesced in giving the imperial concubine to the imperial concubine to vent his anger. They are the ones who serve the emperor, but many people like the Sannomiya and the Sixth Institute can't say that the hearts of the emperor are equally divided! Noble concubine Min has a deep Fukuzawa, and there is no way to put your majesty's mind on her."
"There is a concubine from the left to the right. It has nothing to do with the overall situation. The concubine is willing to be embarrassed, so let them go!"
Seeing Gu Zhen wanting to speak again, she smiled and reminded, "Anyway, Concubine Wan is not without her family. When Meng cries to the emperor, even if the emperor is not willing to deal with the harem personally, she will always give Meng an explanation. …When the time comes, you can just follow the emperor’s will and act."
Gu Zhen said in his heart, this is light, but at that time, Chunjia may be screaming at the palace again.
The Queen Mother looked at her expression and said with a smile: "But I am afraid that the emperor will blame you?"
"..." Gu Zhen nodded in embarrassment. "The grandson-in-law is dull. She has been disappointed by Your Majesty many times, but she doesn't dare to have similar things again, eh..."
"That's actually nothing." The Empress Dowager said lightly, "After all, even if it is to show Meng's family, Your Majesty should say a few words to you. But if there is no other punishment afterwards, it can be seen that your Majesty has no intentions. Now that this is the case, how can you not be more generous as a queen? Just listen?"
Gu Zhen said embarrassingly: "But it is true that the concubine is dull...so the concubine feels..."
"The Aijia asks you, do you think that even if you have learned Ling Zi, who is smarter than the emperor?"
Gu Zhen hurriedly said: "The empress is both talented and virtuous, her grandson-in-law is far inferior! But if your majesty compares, I'm afraid your majesty is even better!"
The Queen Mother said: "It's not better, it's far better!"
She frankly acknowledged Chunjia's outstanding performance, "I can produce three generations of phoenix masters, is it a mediocre family? The emperor can step on the Ji family's power, which shows that my Ji family is not as good as your majesty! Do you think Ling Zi is much better than you, but how wise is the emperor compared to Ling Zi? It can be seen that no matter how hard you work hard, you are not as good as the emperor. Since the emperor is insurmountable, he thinks you are dull... Then why do you take it to heart? In his eyes, there are probably not many people in the world who are not dull."
These words can't comfort Gu Zhen, mainly because Gu Zhen felt that even if the emperor felt that few sentient beings in the world were not dull, how many queens could there be?
Even if she is the successor, that is also the master of the sixth house!
Why can't she be smart!
... Even more sad is that the emperor thought she was dull, but he certainly didn't think the concubine was dull.
Otherwise, why would you give your concubine the title "Min"?
Don’t you think the imperial concubine is smart!
"In short, don't take too much of the words that make you sad." The Queen Mother sighed softly and said softly, "You are a queen. When you have the heart of the queen, this heart is more than just To tolerate the Sixth Palace and the emperor heirs, but also to tolerate the emperor...After all, if you are a husband and wife, if you have to care about him, who can he tell the truth?"
Gu Zhen couldn't help but said: "Grandma, your Majesty often speaks the truth to your concubine!"
"The imperial concubine can't stay with him for long. Even if she has not fallen out of favor, when the fifteenth prince grows up, she will be sent to the feudal clan, she will probably be sent away." The empress dowager said indifferently, "The family said, the emperor Yingming Shenwu, since he intends to pass on the concubine, even if he arranges some concubines to train the concubine, how can he tolerate the people and things that would really threaten the concubine? And he loves the concubine, so he won’t let the concubine mother and son be with you. Gong Niang'er really tears her face. After all, after he goes, he still expects you and your prostitutes to take care of Xuanqing Gong's mother and son!"
Gu Zhen: "...?????!!!"
The words were abrupt, and the queen couldn't believe her ears for a while.
If it was Chunjia before the showdown with her, she would absolutely not believe it, and she would even think that the empress dowager was not a stimulus-too much excitement that broke her brain?
But at this moment, she suddenly felt that perhaps this inference is very possible?
After all, Yun Fenghuang is the favorite concubine who has been in the palace since she entered the palace, and she is also a arrogant sex-child, and she has never looked at other concubines from beginning to end.
The emperor's heirs are still young now, especially the two prostitutes have not grown up.
Chunjia did not let go of the reserve.
Regarding the possibility that the imperial concubine's mother and son would threaten the central palace, threaten the protagonist, and then cause the royal family to succumb to flesh and blood, and thus internal friction, it is only at the time of suspicion.
But if you wait a few more years, the aunts will grow up, and the princes will grow up too, and the emperor will formally take the position of crown prince. If the imperial concubine still doesn’t give up, then...
If Chunjia can't cut the mess quickly and sacrifice one party to complete the other party, what he has to face is the volatility of the hearts of the people, the children fight inwardly, and even reproduce the scene when Shenzong ascended the throne!
This decision is not alarmist. After all, once Chunjia allowed the imperial concubine mother and son to attack the crown prince, it would also give a signal to the other emperor heirs: the emperor's intention to establish a son as the prince was not very firm.
Since he can let the imperial concubine mother and child do so because of his pampering, do other people have a chance?
Even if their mother and concubine are not as favored by Chunjia as the imperial concubine, maybe they think they are smarter and better than the concubine?
Or do they think they can take advantage when the imperial concubine and the queen are both hurt?
Even if he can't be a prince, it is not bad to look for a reliable brother, support his superior, and be a favored king.
It's hard to say how much the many heirs under Chunjia's knees will suffer by then.
And Gu Zhen never doubted Chunjia's wiseness, she could think of it, how could Chunjia not think of it?
He is not a messenger, even if he is reluctant to part with the imperial concubine, but... if the imperial concubine's status in his mind overwhelms the society, he is not himself on the phoenix seat now.
Thinking about this, Gu Zhen felt in a good mood, and even, she was disappointed again and sympathized with Xia Yun Fenghuang...
... After the emperor left Qingci Palace, the attendant asked the empress dowager: "Your Majesty will really let the noble concubine follow the fifteen princes to the feudal clan?"
