Queen's scheming

Chapter 245 Detour
In the Cihui Palace, it was very quiet. Shen Qingyi knelt on the marble floor, counting the ticking sounds outside the palace door one after another in her heart. It had just rained heavily. Although it had stopped at this moment, Under the bright yellow glazed tiles, it was still dripping, as if lamenting that the rain was too short.

When Shen Qingyi counted to the 100th drop, the queen mother was supported by Nanny Ding, followed by An Qingyao who was dressed in Tianshui green clothes. An Qingyao smiled slightly at Shen Qingyi, reminding her that things were not that bad .

"Get up! You are in better health. If you kneel like this again, the emperor will probably marry someone from Ai's family!" The queen mother's voice was filled with disappointment. Although the son was her own, the old saying goes, you have It is true that the daughter-in-law has forgotten her mother.

Shen Qingyi forced herself to stand up, her knees should have turned purple.

Nanny Ding followed in front of the queen mother, looking at Shen Qingyi with a look of disdain. After all, Li Tianyou was not born to the queen mother, and for such a woman, she actually wanted to deal with the mother's family of the queen mother!

Shen Qingyi was very respectful, got up, blessed the Empress Dowager again, and said: "The concubine has been in a coma these days and has never served in front of the Empress Dowager. This time I knelt for a long time, which is also filial piety. The Emperor is too happy. How can you talk to the Queen Mother?"

The queen mother snorted coldly, dismissed all the palace people around her, and Nanny Ding consciously stayed beside the queen mother. The queen mother glanced at Nanny Ding almost imperceptibly, and said nothing Ask Shen Qingyi bluntly: "How do you want to deal with Aunt Yu's matter?"

Shen Qingyi blinked, and replied in a gentle voice: "Fu Guogong is the elder brother of the Empress Dowager, and Fu Guogong's son is the nephew of the Empress Dowager's direct relative. Therefore, it is not easy for a concubine to handle this matter, so I will The matter is left to the Royal Concubine Duanjing."

The Empress Dowager glanced at Shen Qingyi, with a bit of coldness, frowned and asked: "You are not easy to deal with, can the imperial concubine Duanjing just deal with it? Those are her parents!"

Shen Qingyi lowered her eyes, and continued naturally: "Back then, Feng Guogong and Feng Guogong's wife were also the parents of the concubine, but since the concubine has married into the royal family, the emperor must be the most important thing. If not, the concubine Now you won't be an orphan anymore!"

"What do you mean, could it be that it is your business alone, that the government of Fuguo should be destroyed just like the government of Fengguo?" The queen mother's voice suddenly became sharper, and Nurse Ding could feel the empress dowager leaning on her shoulders when she was beside her. The crutches he was holding shook the marble floor beneath him.

"The ministers and concubines don't dare. The Fengguo Duke's Mansion and the Fuguo Duke's Mansion are not the same. Besides, the Fengguo Duke's Mansion was seeking to usurp the throne at the beginning. It was the emperor. For the stability of the Dali country, it cannot be indulged lightly." This time, the Fuguo Duke's Mansion is only here for the concubine, the Queen of the Palace, so naturally it cannot be dealt with in a normal way!" Shen Qingyi bit the word Queen of the Palace very hard, she was the empress of a country, and she was trying to get her It was impossible to say a word, and the matter was exposed.

The Empress Dowager looked at Shen Qingyi coldly, and the two of them confronted each other like that. The Empress Dowager was defeated in the end, and she opened her mouth to ask, "How will Imperial Concubine Duanjing deal with this matter?"

Nanny Ding listened attentively to the side, only thinking of passing on every word spoken in the hall to Prince Cheng verbatim at night. Speaking of which, Prince Cheng really respects the Queen Mother, They all care about the Queen Mother's every move.

Shen Qingyi gently twirled the cherry-red plain brocade handkerchief in her hand, and said calmly: "The imperial concubine Duanjing means that she wants to get the hereditary title of Duke Fu's mansion. Enough is enough, although this punishment is a bit lighter, but it is not impossible to hinder the empress dowager and imperial concubine's thin face. Breaking the rules, colliding, such an excuse, it is already very serious to deal with it in this way, and if you continue to use your queen mother to reprimand you, the elders of the court will also feel grateful to the queen mother for being strict with herself and not lightly pampering her own mother. Home!"

The queen mother gritted her teeth and said, "It's rare that you have put so much thought into it!"

Nanny Ding heard it clearly from the side. Shen Qingyi had given up on the Queen Mother's idea of ​​lenient punishment. First, she said that the punishment was light, and then said that it was because Shen Qingyi saved the Empress Dowager and Imperial Concubine Duanjing with respect. If the queen mother is in a hurry, she will expose the matter of Aunt Yu's poisoning of her. At that time, the Fuguo Duke's Mansion will not only be a matter of getting the title!

Nanny Ding was listening, and became more and more dissatisfied with Shen Qingyi!This Shen Qingyi is too disrespectful to the Queen Mother. Usually, when Princess Qinya came to pay her respects, she would be cautious at all times, for fear that something might go wrong. Like Shen Qingyi, who takes herself too seriously, if It wasn't that Prince Cheng of my family gave up the throne to Li Tianyou, how could she be a queen, she was just a concubine to death!
Shen Qingyi looked directly into the empress dowager's wise eyes, the corners of her lips raised slightly, forming a perfect arc, and said: "The concubine can't just think about her own size, since she narrowly escaped death this time, she always thinks about living in the world. , it is better to accumulate more merits. Although Aunt Yu was instructed by the Fu Guogong's concubine to poison the lives of the concubine, so that the imperial concubine Duanjing ascended the throne, she made the concubine sober by mistake. Now, if it's a coincidence, it's better to say it's the blessings that the concubine accumulated for herself earlier."

"So this time, the concubine also thought that it would be better to leave some leeway, even if it wasn't for the Empress Dowager and Imperial Concubine Duanjing, after all, you and her are already extremely honored, but after all, there is still Princess Qingrong No, Princess Qingrong is going to get married sooner or later, and her maternal ancestral family cannot be charged with the crime. Therefore, the concubine agreed to the method of Duan Jing, the noble concubine, only to get the title, and Fu Guogong is still Fu Guo Lord, it’s just that the eldest son and the eldest concubine have become ordinary officials and officials, master and old lady, this is really nothing!” Shen Qingyi finished speaking respectfully, and looked at the queen mother with a smile, as if again Invitation to credit is average.

The subtext is that Shen Qingyi has already given the Duke Fu a lot of face for the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager snorted coldly and said: "Since the empress has already thought about it so well, Aijia has nothing to say! Aijia's body is not in good shape yet, Qingyao is a little bit hard to serve, since the empress is so virtuous, she should know How to do it!"

Shen Qingyi lightly blessed her body, and said with a slight smile: "From now on, the concubine will handle the affairs of the Six Palaces in the morning, and go to the Cihui Palace to serve for two and a half hours every day after lunch, and come here from tomorrow, okay? "

The queen mother didn't answer, and angrily supported Nanny Ding's arm and walked into the warm pavilion. Nanny Ding was stretched by the queen mother, so An Qingyao had to go see Shen Qingyi off.

An Qingyao held Shen Qingyi's hand until she was about to reach the gate of Cihui Palace, Fang whispered: "The empress dowager's intention is to ask the emperor to reward Fuguo's government in her own name. It would be the best thing to bring back the hearts of the people in the government. If the Fuguo government really can't support it, it will be dealt with by the emperor. It's just that the queen mother has a lot of concerns for the Fuguo and his wife. If you can wait for the Fuguo It is the best way to deal with it after a hundred years, Your Excellency!"

Shen Qingyi remained calm, and nodded lightly. An Qingyao knew that Shen Qingyi understood what she meant, so she didn't say any more, and sent Shen Qingyi out of the Cihui Palace with a slight smile.

Shen Qingyi had just left the palace gate, and Mother Jiang greeted her, and whispered a few words in Shen Qingyi's ear, after hearing this, Shen Qingyi pondered for a while, then smiled slightly: "Let's go, let's go to Zhaoyang Palace to see This good sister of this palace!"
