Chapter 35 The Queen's Dilemma
Yiman frowned slightly, put the brocade box on the bookcase behind the desk, straightened her dress and got up to greet her.

"Mammy is here, but the Queen Mother is calling me?"

Looking at the graceful eldest princess, Gao Nai first smiled in relief, then put away the smile a little stiffly, and glanced back at the palace guards on both sides.

Hanzhi saw Yiman nodded, raised his hand, asked the palace people on both sides to step back, walked to the door and closed it himself.

Gao Momo knelt down suddenly, her face was a little embarrassed, but her eyes were determined.

Yiman was about to hold Grandma Gao's hand, but he couldn't kneel down as fast as she could. Looking at the failed hand, he smiled slightly, turned around and walked to sit behind the desk.

"What's the matter, Nanny Gao? Why don't you ask the queen mother to make the decision. I just returned to the palace, and I speak lightly."

Aunt Gao has been with the queen since she was young. It can be said that the queen obeys her. What's more, she has been in the palace for many years and her status in the palace is much higher than that of some low-level concubines.Kneeling down at this moment must be something that even the queen cannot solve. It must be extremely difficult to do it yourself.

Hearing such distant words, Grandma Gao's thoughts became more determined, "The princess is exquisite and clear, so I won't make any detours."

Looking up and seeing the eldest princess staring at herself with a half-smile, but not answering, Gao Nanny's heart tightened, she sighed, and opened her mouth anyway.

"The empress is magnanimous, and the eldest princess should have seen it too. Although the little emperor's grandson has already been born, the crown prince is weak, and there has been dissatisfaction in the court for a long time. There are not many concubines with children in the harem, and there are also many restless ones. , The empress is still not clear about the affairs of the harem, not to mention that His Royal Highness is alone in the court hall. Now it looks like the status of the Empress Empress and His Royal Highness is stable, but it is actually on the verge of falling."

Yiman dragged his head, silently looking at the next empress Gao who was full of emotion.

The harem has always had Gao Nai to assist the queen, if it is said that the cooking is not clear, it is a bit serious.As for the court, the empress shouldn't have interfered. If she did, the emperor would be the first to be unhappy.Therefore, the so-called inability of the prince to stand alone in the court is just a sneaky change of concept.Even if the crown prince is in a difficult situation in the court, the Fu family has been officials for many generations, so how could it be possible that the crown prince has no help in the court?Aunt Gao deliberately exaggerated, why?
Seeing the contented and stable eldest princess above, Nanny Gao felt a little uneasy.

"Princess, I can tell from Liangdi's difficult childbirth that you are decisive, bold and intelligent. If it hadn't been stolen back then, the scene in the palace would definitely be different now. The Empress must be the true Lord of the Sixth Palace. The eldest princess must also be a proud daughter of heaven."

Hearing this, Yiman finally understood what Aunt Gao meant.

Let her rhetoric have only one meaning.If Yiman hadn't been stolen during the palace change, he would definitely assist the queen.

Now the palace is indeed troubled by internal and external troubles, not only Xia Yuyi, the favorite concubine, but also those concubines who are always jumping up and down in order to compete for favor. Du Cainu and Guo Jieyu are the most recent examples.

The important thing is that there are still many princes and courtier families who secretly covet the throne. Just one concubine Duan De who is already planning for fame and paving the way for the seventh prince Bai Renji is enough to cause headaches.

If the queen had a hard heart, Lei Ting's methods would be fine, but she had an indecisive temperament, and she still had conjugal expectations for the emperor.If it hadn't been for the help of a number of female officials such as the Fu family, the prince, and Aunt Gao in recent years, I would have been kicked off the phoenix chair long ago.

Nanny Gao wanted Yiman to help the queen tidy up the harem and intervene in the affairs of the concubines.But once it is done, there will inevitably be a reputation for being unfilial and presumptuous. Those high-ranking concubines are, after all, "concubine mothers" in name. up.

Yiman smiled slightly, "Since the incident has happened, now I have reunited with my father, queen and queen, and I only want to spend my days in the palace. The emperor's brother is weak, and I will definitely visit him often in the future."

Seeing that Yi didn't answer, Gao Nai practiced Tai Chi and gritted her teeth, "Princess, have you thought about it, if there is something wrong with the Empress, it will affect you, Eldest Princess."

Yiman's eyes turned cold, "There is a nanny by my mother's side, so nothing can go wrong, right?"

It's not that Yiman can't clean up the harem, but that Gao Maimai had the intention of using her to clean up the harem from the beginning, not to mention she mentioned it to the queen when she went to bed that day.Now the threat is buried like a thorn in the cotton, which is really disgusting.

Gao Nanny saw Yiman personally picking gardenia flowers for the queen to put on her pillow that day, and she was careful in everything, from hair accessories to protecting her when she was framed, she thought that the eldest princess was a very emotional person.If you ask me to intercede, the eldest princess will definitely be able to agree with me to clean up the miasma in the harem for the queen, or pave the way for the prince.I didn't expect to see her cold-hearted side today, so calm and unmoving, she doesn't look like a young girl.

"After all, the old man can't compare with the eldest princess. If the empress and His Royal Highness are good, the eldest princess's marriage will definitely be improved in the future. The old man is also thinking of the eldest princess."

Yiman suddenly smiled, "Nurse is right, I have long wanted to help my mother, but she is soft-tempered, and I am afraid that she will not want to."

"As long as the eldest princess is willing to help, I'm willing to talk to the empress."

Yiman nodded, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then set his eyes on the clothes.

Gao Momo did not dare to speak too much, seeing that the Eldest Princess agreed, she only said that she would pay her respects to the Eldest Princess some other day, and left Qingsi Hall.

Han Zhi changed a cup of tea for Yiman, "Princess, Madam Gao just now - was she threatening you with the princess's marriage just now?"

There was no one around, seeing Han Zhi's worried brows, Yiman smiled reassuringly, "Even if I marry out of the palace right now, I'm not afraid, just don't worry."

Since even Nanny Gao was thinking about her own marriage, wouldn't the emperor not think of it?In the final analysis, the emperor still needs to nod in agreement.The role played by Gao Nai is only to play a catalytic role in the ears of the queen, and she has just entered the palace not long ago, and has not yet established a firm foothold in the palace. Only by making good arrangements in the palace can one be free and unrestrained in the mansion outside the palace.

"If the princess interferes in palace affairs, those concubines will definitely not agree. Servant, slave, I think that Grandma Gao is the queen's wife, how could she-"

Yiman raised his eyelids and looked at Han Zhi, "Make things difficult for me?"

Yiman sneered, "It's normal in this palace. Brothers are fighting each other, and father and son are killing each other. I was prepared before entering the palace. If I want to live the best life, there will be bloodshed. Now it seems that instead of It is better to take the rights of the harem into your own hands than to rely on the mother's mercy, which in the final analysis can be regarded as helping the mother."

"Princess, what did you say?"

"It's nothing, let's find something to make medicine."

"Yes."
