Queen's scheming

Chapter 307 A Desperate Strike

Qiaohui carefully brushed Tang Aoxue's hair. Her master is pregnant now, and there are many freckles on her face, which can't be covered without a few layers of powder. But yesterday, a gift from the empress, Zhaoyang Palace I get the most, and there are no eating utensils, either the white marble Guanyin Guanyin or the pillow jade Ruyi, or the four small screens, each of which has no spices, and I can’t find any faults even if I want to find it. .

Qiaohui sees that the empress is pregnant, the imperial concubine is pregnant, even Qiaolan is pregnant, so she doesn't need to apply powder, Qiaolan is even more taboo, even the rouge cream from the House of Internal Affairs is discarded, Qiaolan She was originally the maid in front of her master, she had suffered a lot before, she didn't use rouge and gouache for a while, her face was a little unreadable, but she was all focused on her stomach, and now she lives in Lengsu In the palace, there is no desire to compete for favor, just so plain-faced every day, and he doesn't care if his face is swollen into a bun!

"Master, do you still want to apply powder? I heard from the imperial physician that using rouge powder may affect the fetus..." Qiaohui thought for a while, and finally opened her mouth. Now that Tang Aoxue is in the limelight, she can't be grounded, so she doesn't need to look at the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The complexion depends on her stomach, if she gets hurt, she doesn't know what life will be like in Zhaoyang Palace, Qiaohui really doesn't want to wash clothes by herself anymore!
Tang Aoxue raised her eyebrows, and said sharply: "My concubine's face looks like this, how can it be done without powder? Didn't you look at those little hoofs, all of them are all enchanting and enchanting, standing in front of Qiankun Palace all day long Are you shaking your head? It’s just a pretense that you’re here to pay your respects to my concubine. Is your concubine’s eyes blind? It’s just because Zhaoyang Palace and Qiankun Palace are so close, and I’m tired of wandering outside. Come here to warm up Body, resting feet, in the winter, wearing either pink or emerald green, not to seduce the emperor, or for some reason, no matter how bare-faced my concubine is, let them look at my concubine's cat-like face, Is it to make them happy?"

"But you're pregnant now..." Qiaohui explained while grabbing an ivory comb inlaid with jewels.

"So what if you're pregnant? You haven't seen those concubines in Duke Fu's mansion, each of whom has put so much powder on them. They're still giving birth to bastards. The lady of Duke Fu can't control her if she wants to. Putting powder on will really have an impact, how did Duke Fu's bastards crawl out!"

Tang Aoxue was angry in her heart, who is she, she is the first sister of the former empress, the second daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, let those scumbags in the palace climb on top of her, delusional!
Qiaohui frowned, and agreed, and took out two boxes of duck egg powder from the dressing box at the side, and helped Tang Aoxue paint meticulously. The imperial concubine is now the second child, why didn't she see anything growing on her face, but what happened to her master, her face was already like a person standing in the shade of a tree, mottled, like The light and shadow under the tree are ordinary.

When Qiaohui rushed to the fourth floor, she managed to paint Tang Aoxue's face in white. Fortunately, it was winter, otherwise she would definitely be able to see that her face and neck were quite different.

Tang Aoxue looked at it for a while in the Linghua mirror, nodded in satisfaction, and then listened to the report from the little maid outside that Mrs. Zhen Guogong had arrived.Qiaohui breathed a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Zhen Guogong strode into Zhaoyang Palace with her head held high, and looked around, okay, okay, fortunately, she has a daughter, looking at the location of Zhaoyang Palace, plus the decoration, it is actually Lianningsu Palace Nothing could compare, and I felt full of momentum in my heart.

Tang Aoxue saw Mrs. Zhen Guo frowned and said, "Mother, why are you dressed like this?"

I saw Mrs. Zhen Guogong wearing a goose yellow flowered skirt and a royal blue jacket on her upper body. Such contrasting colors are really too conspicuous.

Mrs. Zhen Guogong looked her up and down, and said, "What's the matter? Could it be that I entered the palace wearing a frost-colored plain dress? Let the queen add another crime of disrespect to me? I remember that you were just because of a A frost-colored dress, forced to ground myself by the empress dowager and empress!"

Tang Aoxue said unhappily: "Why are you bringing up the old things in a good manner? It hasn't been a year since my brother left, and he is still in the filial piety anyway. After all, he is the mother's own son. Who is he wearing such bright clothes for? , besides, how do you see, this color should not be worn by mother at this age!"

Mrs. Zhen Guogong sat down in the armchair by herself, and said in a muffled voice: "Now the person raised by that little woman has taken the place of my son. If I wear plain clothes every day and wash my face with tears, why don't I just let him The bastard is proud, I lost a son, and your father personally murdered the other youngest son, who is lying on the bed every day, unable to move, but I still have a third-rank daughter Well, when you, the prince, are born, let me see who dares to show off in front of me!"

"Who dares to show off his power in front of his mother, you don't want to be raised by a little woman every day, and talk about it. After all, my daughter is still using him now. If you offend him, what good fruit do you have?" Sitting aside, Tang Aoxue reprimanded Mrs. Zhen Guo.

"Could it be possible that you also went to Tang Zihan? Don't forget that when you were in the most difficult time, it was your brother Tang Zinan who gave you advice, sent you contacts, and paid the guards around you. It's not that little woman who raises Tang Zihan!" Mrs. Zhen Guogong's wife stared at Tang Aoxue with rounded eyes.

Tang Aoxue frowned. She has been in the palace for many years, and no one would follow her words. Now, Mrs. Zhen Guogong has not said a word since she entered the palace. Angrily said: "You just scold him every day, what good can you get? Mother, don't forget that the guards around my Zhaoyang Palace are all sent by Tang Zihan. If you said these words If the news spreads, he will be annoyed, and when the time comes, he will be upset and play tricks on me, killing the child in my stomach, I will see what you and I can rely on!"

Mrs. Zhen Guogong was silent, and opened her mouth and said: "I can't! If you gave birth to a little prince, he would be proud, so why would he attack you!"

"Why can't it? It's just that he doesn't do it himself. As long as he is no longer protecting me, the child in my stomach is not guaranteed to be saved. The maids in front of the queen are all good at martial arts. Who knows what will happen?" Time to kick me! What is he afraid of, he is now a celebrity in front of the emperor, even the empress thinks differently, talking every day, let Tang Zihan be the master of the prince, people will lack this one in my stomach Is it?" Tang Aoxue was furious, it didn't matter who gave birth to Tang Zihan, anyway, his biological mother had died a long time ago, if she didn't die, would he still be called Mrs. Zhen Guogong's wife?

Mrs. Zhen Guogong's lips moved, but she didn't continue the topic in the end, she just changed the subject and said: "It's almost three months! Just wait for three months to sit firmly, and you will take good care of it. I hope it all falls on you! I don’t count on your father anymore. Now he doesn’t even enter the main courtyard. Tang Zihan, that bastard, knows about the evil things your brother committed back then. I don’t know where he got it. Two good families came out, and now your elder brother has been gone for less than a year, and your father actually blatantly raised his aunt for those two sluts. Live by you!"

Tang Aoxue took a sip of tea sullenly, and asked coldly: "Mother begged to enter the palace just to say this. If I knew this, why would I ask the queen to let you come in?"

Mrs. Zhen Guogong glared at her, looked around, only Qiaohui was waiting in front of her, she secretly took out a small white porcelain bottle with two ears from her sleeve, and handed it to her: "This is still I packed it up from your brother’s belongings, and it’s hard for me to find things like this now that your brother isn’t here, so you should use it sparingly, anyway, it will only take three months at most, and solid pets are enough!”

Tang Aoxue breathed a sigh of relief, and instead of reaching out to pick it up, she just gave Qiaohui a wink, in case she found out someday, she didn't handle it anyway, and everything was done by Mrs. Zhen Guogong and Qiaohui down.

Qiaohui picked it up tremblingly, feeling very sad, as if seeing her own life burnt out like the red candle beside her, she could only stand by Tang Aoxue's side, she knew Tang Aoxue's too many secrets She is different from Qiaolan. Qiaolan is now Dong Xiaoyuan. When she gives birth to her little prince in the future, the mother is more expensive than her son. deep!

Mrs. Zhen Guogong looked at Tang Aoxue, frowned and said, "Why do you still use such thick powder, drink tea, and use spices? What if the child is gone? Don't you know that whether it's you or Am I relying on this child to come back?"

Tang Aoxue said tiredly: "There are so many aunts, why don't they still use makeup and powder when they are pregnant?"

"What's the matter if I didn't see it?" Mrs. Zhen Guogong flicked her sleeves and said, "You think that only your sister, elder brother, and younger brother are descendants of the concubine in our house, and the only concubine is Tang Zihan. You think this is your mother and I am lucky. If it wasn't for your mother, you would have tampered with my aunt's rouge powder, spices, and tea, you don't know how many younger brothers and sisters you have now! You are so bold enough to use these, you are afraid that the queen will not have a chance to give you Can't you poison it?"

"I'm afraid she won't poison me!" Tang Aoxue sneered.When she got this prescription back then, she was prepared to fight desperately. Shen Qingyi had better not attack her, as long as she did, she would never let her retreat unscathed!
