boudoir

Chapter 261 Add fuel to the fire
Shuhua knows how to sit on the fence to watch the fun, and her own interests are the most important thing.The crown prince asked her to come to the palace as a lobbyist, and she could accept it as soon as she was good. Naturally, she can light the fire for Liuli later on.

For her, the young mistress who came to the Shang Song Mansion to be her daughter-in-law, although her courage is admirable, her back is still not as straight as others' straight, so she has especially supported her in-laws and established a virtuous image over the years.The Young Mistress of the Song Mansion has a beautiful face, but only she knows the bitterness in it.

In this case, it would be of great benefit to her to have a close sister who married into the Dingbei Palace and was the general's wife.Even if Qi Yunhao is not used by the prince now, it doesn't matter whether the prince will be in power or not in the future, as long as he does not hand over the military power in his hands, he will be a decisive force in the court.With this layer, Shuhua can gain a bit of face no matter in the Song Mansion or in front of the Prince and his wife.

That's why the crown prince and Song Pi invited her to the palace as a lobbyist.And when Liuli expressed her attitude towards the prince unceremoniously, she did not dare to turn against her in the end, but found a way to go down by herself. Strength, her identity helps her.She would rather take the risk of not being able to do anything than offend her, because Liuli, who is Qi Yunhao's wife, is the one she should really win over.

If Qi Yunhao's wife is replaced by someone else, then she will lose this power for nothing. For the prince and Song Bi, and even Mrs. Song and Song Ziyu, she has lost a share of value. As Shuhua, How could you be willing to do this?
So, who else is more suitable than her to set fire to the princess?
Yuegui went to Qingning Palace, and Shuhua was preparing for the banquet as the emperor's eldest grandson's family. After hearing Yuegui's words and Liulirang's report, Duan Wenhui actually coveted Qi Yunhao's position as the main wife. In a word, as expected, he understood what Liuli meant in an instant.They are all people from the same path, and they are all people who are good at using for their own benefit. Liuli puts the strength in front of her eyes, and of course she will not be so confused that she will let it go.

After calling Yuegui to go back, she retreated to the side hall and sat in silence, not even going to the banquet.

As the parents of the bride, Song Bi and his wife will not be here today, so Song Ziyu and Shuhua, who represent the Song family, became today's honored guests. As soon as Shuhua sat down like this, someone would immediately tell the princess.In less than a moment, the princess came over and asked with a smile: "The table is already set, why doesn't Shuhua go to the table?"

Shuhua hesitated to speak.The princess was puzzled, and when she asked again, she said: "I'm afraid the princess doesn't know yet, but it's really annoying to say it. On such a happy day for the emperor's eldest grandson and the eldest grandson concubine today, someone is causing trouble in the palace and disturbing Duanqing. The screen in the palace was knocked down and injured someone. Do you think you should be angry? It is extremely unlucky to see blood on the big day! After returning to the mansion, I don’t know how to tell my parents-in-law about it Son!"

The Crown Princess has been busy in Qingning Palace just now, how could she bother to ask where the Empress went?Hearing the seriousness of what she said, she immediately said in surprise: "This happened? Where? Who did it?"

Shuhua frowned and said: "I don't know the details, but I just heard word of mouth from the palace people. I heard that the empress has gone to Duanqing Palace. It's just that the empress is kind, and there has been no news for so long. , I don’t know what to do!”

The concubine's face darkened. Don't say that today's son Shuhua is a guest of honor and cannot be treated like an ordinary courtier. She is the daughter-in-law of Song Bi who is trusted by the emperor. When the crown prince's status is unstable, it is difficult for her to treat her Attitude cannot be easily changed.What's more, it's not only the daughter of the Song family who was bumped into this happy event, but more importantly, her eldest son, the future prince!
Deliberately knocking down the screen and hitting people, how can this be tolerated? !

"Go, Ben Gong will take a look with you!"

Shuhua was just waiting for these words, and immediately took a step forward, and went to Duanqing Palace together with her.

Liuli applied medicine in the inner hall, guessing that Shuhua was about to come, so she was supported by Yuegui Haitang and returned to the front hall. up.Duan Wenhui stood at the side, although her face was disturbed, but she didn't seem to bear any harsh punishment, just as Liuli imagined, the empress knew clearly, so naturally she would not offend anyone because of their grievances, in the end only these were the unlucky scapegoats Innocent palace people.

This is not what she wants.

When Lou Mingzhu and Lu Muyang saw her coming, they immediately went up to meet her.Liuli bowed to the queen, and the queen said in harmony: "Why don't you go and rest? Later, someone will bring the food, and when you leave, someone will send you to the sedan chair."

Liuli replied: "Your Majesty loves you so much, Liuli is ashamed to accept it. It's just that the emperor's eldest grandson is married, and as a courtier's wife, how can she act like this? No matter how unbearable the courtier's wife is, she will come out. What's more, the imperial physician I saw it just now, and there is no serious problem, but the spine was injured, and the road can still be walked."

Everyone knows that hurting the spine is a serious matter, but she still gritted her teeth and said something harmless. Even if the empress thought about her colliding with the prince, she couldn't help but sighed at this moment and said: "These slaves are not effective. I have already punished them severely, I will send some imperial medicines to you later, it will be regarded as my apology to you. It depends on my face, don't worry about it."

Liuli glanced at Duan Wenhui, and saw her face showing color, and then looked at the group of people walking by the gate of the palace in the distance, and sneered in her heart, bowed her head and said to the queen: "My wife obeys. This is the How can anyone else be blamed for the accident? It just disturbed the emperor's eldest grandson's wedding, and he was extremely disturbed. I don't know what the minister's wife should do to make up for this mistake?"

The queen was about to speak here, when a report came from the door: "The princess is here!" The queen frowned suddenly, "What is she here for?"

It turned out that she didn't alert others to come here, and she didn't intend to let her get involved so that everyone would know about it.After all, it was Qi Yunhao's wife who was hurt, and both Prince Dingbei and his son were protective, and if the disturbance caused the Holy Master to come forward, it would be difficult to deal with the matter.So for the arrival of the crown princess, the queen expressed her disapproval for the second time today.

"Mother's Empress." The Crown Princess bowed to the Empress, glanced at Liuli in front of her, and suddenly became angry again: "Since you know that you disturbed the emperor's eldest grandson's wedding, then what should you do, do you know?"

Shuhua winked at Liuli, telling her to keep silent.She hadn't told the Crown Princess who was the one who pushed the screen and smashed it. One was that she didn't want to be hated afterwards, and the other was that she wanted the Crown Princess to recognize the person herself.The Crown Princess doesn't have much brains. If she knows everything when she gets here, wouldn't that be the same as telling the Queen that someone specially tipped her off?

Therefore, when the crown princess mistook Liuli standing in front of the queen as the instigator, she intentionally let her continue to misunderstand.

However, Liuli had seen the Crown Princess coming in long ago, and she said those words just now specially for her. When the Crown Princess hated her, she would definitely preconceive that she was an unforgivable sin, and then treat her She severely punished.And she wanted to take advantage of the crown princess's lack of brains and her anger to vent her anger.

Therefore, at this time, Shuhua's little thoughts and Liuli's thoughts were synchronized by coincidence.

Of course Duan Wenhui didn't know about this inside story, she was a little disappointed to see the Queen coming alone, but now that the Crown Princess finally came, her eyes immediately relaxed.

Although the queen didn't know what Liuli was doing behind her back, why did the crown princess rush over here after she came, but she was a sensible person, knowing that it was wrong for the crown princess to scold people indiscriminately, especially before The palace also targeted others, so in the eyes of others, it would appear even more petty and out of proportion.

So she said in a deep voice: "When the matter is not clear, the princess should not blame others indiscriminately. The injured person is the general's wife! The servants did not do their job well, and the screen was not put in place, so they accidentally injured someone." If she wanted to say it was the screen She really couldn't tell who pushed it. As an empress, the necessary means are not only to be able to govern people, but also to be able to appease and balance.Marquis Zhongyong also made meritorious service to Sheji. As a queen, can she make the descendants of her heroes a target of public criticism?
But when she looked at Duan Wenhui, there was still a hint of deep meaning in her eyes.

But can the Crown Princess believe this?It's fine in normal times, but today is the day of her only son's big wedding, and it's an ominous omen if she gets bloody, if something happens to Lu Zhen in the future, who will she rely on to survive?And the most important thing is, this girl didn't do this, so if she had to accuse her as soon as she entered the door, wouldn't it be superficial and frivolous in the eyes of others?
Thinking back to the queen's tone just now, she became even more embarrassed.She has become a mother-in-law, and her in-laws are standing next to her. It is really embarrassing for her mother-in-law to point out her mistakes in public.Then he wanted to make up for it even more, so he said: "So it wasn't the general's wife who did it. Then I misunderstood you."

Forcibly said something to Liuli, then turned around and said to the queen: "But mother, how could the good screen fall down? Someone must have done it on purpose. Zhen'er is getting married, I don't know how many people want to take advantage of this Opportunity is taking advantage of it! Doesn't the Queen Mother think this is strange?"

The "many people" in her words naturally referred to Concubine Luo Gui and King Qing, but Liuli was really embarrassed to bring this mother and son into this unintentionally.

However, since the Crown Princess has this intention, she has no objection, anyway, she has no friendship with King Qing.Glancing at the silent queen who pursed her lips tightly, she simply added to the fire and said: "Your Highness's words are very true, and the minister's wife also feels that something is wrong. It's fine to hurt the minister's wife, but in the future, don't do it again." Someone took this incident as a precedent and injured the noble masters in the palace, but it was also done by slaves, so it would not be worth it."
