Queen's scheming

Chapter 246 entanglement
The moment Tang Aoxue saw Shen Qingyi, seeing her walking slowly down the long alleyway, the silver-red floral plain brocade outer dress, the lotus root pink underskirt, wearing a lady from the Ming dynasty, Tang Aoxue thought she would be proud He despised Shen Qingyi, because she never gave birth to a prince, and even when she was in a coma, Mi Yurou, the imperial concubine of Duanjing, gave birth to Li Tianyou's first child. Tang Aoxue thought that she would mock her indifferently.

But in fact, Tang Aoxue faced the rising sun with a slight smile, performed the blessing ceremony in a proper manner, and returned Shen Qingyi with her most cordial smile, saying: "The empress, why don't you take advantage of it?" The sedan chair? Although the sun is not so strong at the moment, it will damage the skin after all, and you don't have to tan your skin to look like the emperor."

Shen Qingyi greeted Tang Aoxue's smile. From that moment on, Shen Qingyi knew that Tang Aoxue was no longer the Tang Aoxue before. She wanted to defeat her easily, avenge her child, and seek justice for the life she almost lost. It's not that easy anymore.

Shen Qingyi naturally put her hand on Tang Aoxue's outstretched forearm, and said with a warm smile: "I have been lying in the Ningsu Palace for more than a year, but now I miss the sunshine, I miss it so much, and I just want to bask in it." He looks like an emperor."

Tang Aoxue was kind, and led Shen Qingyi into the main hall of Zhaoyang Palace, and said with a smile as she walked, "Why don't you say that the empress and the emperor are deeply in love with each other? We really can't compare, if the empress looks like the emperor again Isn't the unique skin color a match made in heaven as people often say, a pair made in heaven?"

Shen Qingyi glanced at Tang Aoxue inquiringly, she was still wearing a moon-white dress embroidered with red plums in the snow, and even the earrings were tasseled pendants with red-gold plum patterns, but there was a slight smile on that face, eyebrows and eyes curved The kindness of the bend made Tang Aoxue a different person. Such a cold and aloof person actually had a bit of tenderness.

This harem really changes the boundaries of people, no matter how cold people are, there will be a day of tenderness; no matter how arrogant people are, there will be days of submissiveness;
Shen Qingyi sipped the tea lightly. The tea was the jasmine tea she used to like. Li Tianyou once laughed at her, why did she like such ordinary tea? After a long time, I got used to it. The tea next to me is not as refreshing as this tea.Li Tianyou's heart ached, and since then he ordered someone to cook excellent jasmine scented slices, and sent them to the Lingsu Palace every now and then. Now there are four tea pillows in her palace, and she drank the rest of the tea , made after drying.

Tang Aoxue was able to take the trouble to get people to prepare her favorite tea. It can be seen that Tang Aoxue, who was once the most proud and arrogant, finally lowered her proud head.

"Concubine Tang Gui said that she has something important to do and she wants to find me. What exactly is it?" Sensing the difference in Tang Aoxue, Shen Qingyi lost patience at the bottom of her heart. Tang Aoxue only came to pretend to be gentle and soft to her at this time. It was too late, she had already killed her own child, even almost killed her, how could he let her go lightly.

The smile on Tang Aoxue's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a sad look, "I was ignorant before, and I was sorry for the empress in many things. Over the past year, my concubine has repeatedly reflected on it, and I can't let it go. I even want to I apologized after I died, but I felt that I owed my mother a lot. Therefore, my concubine recited sutras and worshiped Buddha every day, copied scriptures, and prayed for the empress. The concubine has been copying Buddhist scriptures for more than a year. Today, I just collected a thousand volumes of Buddhist scriptures. The concubine asked to see the empress with the intention of taking the thousand volumes of Buddhist scriptures to Ningsu Palace, but she was worried that the empress would not accept it. That's why I ordered people to look for Mother Jiang first, unexpectedly, before a stick of incense, the empress actually came to Zhaoyang Palace in person, and the concubines were terrified."

Shen Qingyi twirled the veil and wiped it lightly on the corner of her lips, covering up the mocking smile on her lips, Tang Aoxue could be humbled like this.I remember that the Queen Mother once said after her first miscarriage that as long as a woman can pass her own level, there is nothing she can't do. At that time, she changed from arrogant and self-willed to a dignified and kind queen in the palace. Tang Aoxue, from being cold and aloof before, has become like this. All of this is for survival, and it is a good survival, a life that tramples others under their feet!

"Concubine Tang Gui copied the scriptures for the palace, and the palace couldn't be more grateful, why would she refuse to accept it?" Shen Qingyi asked, staring at Tang Aoxue with raised eyebrows.Shen Qingyi wants to see how much patience Tang Aoxue has developed.

Tang Aoxue fell to her knees with a "plop" that was beyond everyone's expectations. Tears streamed down her face in an instant. The people in Zhaoyang Palace saw clearly that Tang Aoxue knelt down and begged Shen Qingyi!

Tang Aoxue wiped her tears and said: "The concubine was deceived before, and she wanted to stand shoulder to shoulder with the empress, and even poisoned her. Her thoughts are vicious and outrageous. Your refusal to accept my concubine is understandable. The concubine will continue to copy the scriptures until the day when the empress forgives the concubine!"

Shen Qingyi's slender hands in the silver-red wide sleeves were clenched into fists. If they were not covered by the sleeves, everyone would have noticed that Shen Qingyi's joints were clenched white, but they didn't show it on his face, and said softly: "Tang Gui What is this concubine doing, why don't you get up quickly, you can correct your mistakes if you know your mistakes, there is nothing good about it, concubine Tang Gui is so sincere, how can the palace not accept it? After a while, I ordered the guards to carry it, and sent it to the Buddha in the palace first. Burn incense in the hall for more than a month, and then send it to Huangjue Temple in the future."

No matter who saw this scene, it was extremely harmonious, only Shen Qingyi knew how much she hated and resented, but it didn't matter, the days were long, she wouldn't let Tang Aoxue just dodge the past so lightly .

The two sat down again, Shen Qingyi scanned the decorations in the main hall of Zhaoyang Palace and said: "Concubine Tang Gui is the head of the third rank, isn't it too simple?"

Tang Aoxue made an extremely humble gesture, and said: "As a concubine and a sinner, the emperor and empress do not blame her, it is a great kindness. How can I be extravagant? This is already excellent. If it is not for For the dignity of the Duke of Zhen, the concubine has already begged the emperor to take the position of the concubine's noble concubine."

Shen Qingyi held a cup of jasmine scented tablets and did not speak, but only counted the tea leaves one by one to calm down her mood, then opened her mouth, her voice was so tender that it seemed as if water could be squeezed out, and said: "I will go back and make a list. , changed all the decorations in your palace, although it is wrong to be extravagant, but you are also the main position of the third rank, so you don't have to be contemptuous."

Before Tang Aoxue could refuse, Shen Qingyi put down the teacup, got up and said: "Tomorrow, I will go to the Empress Dowager's palace to serve the sick, there are many things to arrange, where are the scriptures, just let them move to the Buddhist hall. "

Tang Aoxue respectfully sent the man out of the palace.

On the way back to Ningsu Palace, Mother Jiang saw that Shen Qingyi hadn't spoken for a while, and said softly: "The days are very long, the empress really doesn't need to look at the momentary victory or defeat."

Shen Qingyi squeezed the brocade handkerchief in her hand, and said in a low voice: "I went to invite Mr. Baicao, and said that I would ask for a peace pulse for this palace!"
