Queen's scheming

Chapter 162 Palace Banquet ([-])

Yu Lian supported Shen Qingyi to go out, and asked in confusion: "Mother, why did you let Yun Lu go so easily?"

Shen Qingyi embraced a gold-plated hand stove with orchid patterns, and said softly: "The matter of Yunlu, on the surface, is just a servant girl who married into the Duke's mansion and became a concubine, but in reality, it has a lot to do with it."

"This Yunlu is going out of the palace for Prince Cheng, but now she is in Fuguo Duke's Mansion, and the seat that Yunlu occupies is the position of the young wife of the prostitute daughter of Zhongbohou's Mansion. The Duke's Mansion and the Zhongbohou's Mansion affect the whole body, so it's better for me to sell Yunlu as a thin noodle, with her in Fuguo Duke's Mansion, I can feel more at ease." Shen Qingyi caressed the orchid pattern pattern, gently With a smile, Yun Lu's request is actually very simple. It can be seen that she really likes Mi Chenghong, and is even willing to risk his beheading to attend the palace banquet for him.

In fact, Yu Lian sincerely hoped that Shen Qingyi would let Yun Lu go. Hearing what Shen Qingyi said now, she slightly squinted her peach blossom eyes and asked, "Is it because you don't trust Imperial Concubine Duanjing when you say that?"

"Huh?" Shen Qingyi didn't think of this, but after hearing Yulian mention it, she realized that Mi Yurou was from the Fuguo Duke's Mansion, and Mi Yurou's standing on her side meant that the Fuguo Duke's Mansion was on her side.

Shen Qingyi shook her head lightly, and said: "Imperial Concubine Duanjing treats me sincerely, she is a very dutiful person, she will not expect too much, and I will not distrust her. It's just that she is in the palace after all. Here, she can't take care of the affairs of the Fuguo Duke's mansion with the concubine here. Judging from today's situation, the water in the Fuguo Duke's mansion is also very deep, which is much more complicated than the Fengguo Duke's mansion back then! "

Yu Lian lowered her head and thought for a while, "Your Majesty, do you mean the Young Madam of Fuguo's Mansion? That's right, how can it be such a coincidence that she doesn't get sick in the morning and doesn't get sick in the evening, but today she is sick at the palace banquet? Yi Nu Maid Look, this young lady is definitely not what the concubine Shizi said. If she eats vegetarian food and recites Buddha, if she is really so desireless, she wouldn't let Yunlu take such a big risk to enter the palace. This young lady clearly wants the palace. People in the middle, recognize Yunlu!"

Shen Qingyi licked the broken hair on her temples, blinked her eyes lightly and said: "In the future, there will be no such person as Yunlu in the palace, and there will be only Yuniang from Fuguogong's mansion, an orphan adopted by Zhongbohou's mansion, I believe , with Yuniang's intelligence, it is not difficult to gain a foothold in Fuguo Duke's Mansion!"

Gu still stood at the Moon Gate, seeing Shen Qingyi lightly moving the lotus steps, whispering something to Yu Lian beside her, frowning slightly from time to time, under the bright yellow eight-treasure glazed palace lanterns, Shen Qingyi's face was blurred and unreal .

Is she unhappy in the palace? Why is she always sad when she is a queen?

Shen Qingyi and Yu Lian finished talking about Yuniang, and said softly: "Let's go back to the palace banquet quickly, the palace has only given you two tables of drinks, and it's too late to go back, I'm afraid we won't be able to make it in time."

"Empress Empress, don't be impatient. Brother Huang has already given you wine for Empress. You should have walked through the whole hall by now." Gu Yiran suddenly appeared in front of Shen Qingyi, and said in a warm voice.He never wanted to call her Queen's Wife, he would rather call her Empress Empress, as if that would be closer to Shen Qingyi.

Shen Qingyi was talking to Yu Lian just now, and didn't notice anyone around her, so she looked a little startled at that time, looked at Gu Yiran's eyes, and said with displeasure: "Prince Cheng doesn't drink at the banquet, come here to do it What? This is the harem after all, as a grown man, Prince Cheng wanders around the harem at night, I'm afraid it would be out of style!"

Gu Yiran was not angry, instead he liked Shen Qingyi's slightly pouted cherry mouth at the moment. For more than two years, Shen Qingyi always treated herself with a royal smile and pushed herself far, far away. Gu Yiran was a little happy to see her suddenly annoyed.

"Did the empress forget? Because the king wants to accompany the empress dowager, the queen mother made a special case for the king. I was drunk just now, and was about to go to the Cihui Palace to take a break. I didn't expect to meet the empress!" Gu Yiran It's not easy to say a few words with Shen Qingyi, even if it makes Shen Qingyi angry, it makes his heart jump with joy, as if his heart beats only for Shen Qingyi, only when he meets her and talks to her Only then can he feel that his heart is warm.

Shen Qingyi took a deep breath, she must have made a big fuss, Gu Yiran couldn't have come here on purpose to wait for her.

Shen Qingyi changed her expression, the corners of her lips raised slightly, and said with a kind and dignified smile: "I was just reprimanding the maid, but I didn't see Prince Cheng, and in a fit of rage and shock, I bumped into him, and please Prince Cheng not to be offended. "

Just like what Li Tianyou said, his throne and her successor seemed to be stolen, and he felt guilty towards Gu Yiran and the others. Don't want to see him.

Gu Yiran pinched the emerald ring jade pendant around his waist, and said with a bright smile: "Your Majesty, you are welcome. Your Majesty is pregnant with dragon heirs, so it is not appropriate to be overjoyed and angry. Earlier, my minister asked for a peace talisman for the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager used it to calm her mind and calm her mind." The effect is particularly pronounced, the Empress Dowager also said the day before yesterday that she wants her younger brother to ask for one for the empress."

Before Gu Yiran finished speaking, Shen Qingyi interrupted: "Lord Lao Cheng is worried, the emperor has prepared a lot of pearls, tourmalines, and jade ruyis for this palace, it is already enough."

Gu Yiran stared blankly at Shen Qingyi, seeing Shen Qingyi's persistence, slightly lowered his eyes, and said with a wry smile: "My brother knew that the empress would say this, but he didn't give up, so I have to say this one more sentence."

Shen Qingyi smiled dignifiedly, and said: "It's not that this palace is ungrateful, it's just that there are too many things in the palace, there is really no need to look for them outside the palace. This palace is just pregnant with a child, it's too hypocritical, and it will be a waste of money."

"In this way, this king has good intentions to do bad things." Gu Yiran glanced at Shen Qingyi resentfully, and said: "This king has already told the emperor brother where to obtain the peace talisman, and the emperor will definitely ask for it for your mother." of."

Gu Yiran's hand under the sleeve was slightly clenched, but the calm and gentle look returned to his face.

"Hey, what a coincidence? I met Prince Cheng again!" Tang Zihan saluted.

Gu Yiran narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at Tang Zihan and said, "Young General Tang is really strange, why is Young General Tang appearing wherever the empress is?"

"Oh, this minister is about to say that too. Prince Cheng is really easy to find. As long as you follow the empress's guard of honor, you can always meet him. As for me, your life will be hard. The emperor is really worried about the empress, so Wei Wei I came here on purpose, otherwise, in this cold weather, wouldn't I be drinking hot wine in the hall and hugging a beautiful woman, why would I suffer from the cold here?"

Tang Zihan rubbed his hands exaggeratedly as he spoke, raised his eyebrows and said, "Prince Cheng, are you here to admire the moon? It's not that the humble minister said you, you have a strong body, and there are Princess Cheng and two side concubines serving you. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear the cold wind again!" Tang Zihan pointed out.

Gu Yiran snorted coldly, bowed to Shen Qingyi, and said, "My brother is going to Cihui Palace first!"

Tang Zihan stared at Gu Yiran's back without taking his eyes off it.

"The emperor asked General Tang Shao to look for this palace, but something happened?" Shen Qingyi asked with some concern.The whole hall gave wine, and Li Tianyou might not be able to bear it after a round.

Tang Zihan gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and said, "Well, the emperor is drunk, Concubine Xue is serving the emperor to rest, I'm afraid I won't turn around tonight, right now the imperial concubine Duanjing is supporting the emperor at the palace banquet. That said, this minister is looking for the empress to go back and preside over the banquet!"

"Concubine Xue?" Shen Qingyi slightly raised her eyebrows.
