Chapter 59
"Yes... yes, my concubine is taught," Concubine Zhao stammered, her lips were trembling violently, and the usually domineering imperial concubine seemed to be a frightened bird at this time, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your instruction."
"Okay, let's go back, I'm exhausted." The queen mother let go of her hand, and Bi Qiao immediately handed over the handkerchief. The queen mother wiped her hands slowly, lowered her head, and drank the remaining half of the orange tea tripe.
"Yes, the concubine will leave." Concubine Zhao got up from the ground, her face was paler and paler with her shining emerald green hair, Concubine Shu Cui also stood up, went to support Concubine Zhao, and then bowed and retreated .
Zhongcui Palace.
"What the concubine mother said is true? The queen mother really said that?" Zhong Ming'e looked at Cui Shi with a look of astonishment, "Just in front of you and Concubine Zhao?"
"That's not true. The queen mother has always been a bodhisattva with a heart, and never interfered with the affairs of the harem, but today, the moment she opened her mouth, Zhao Guifei was so scared that her legs went limp." Concubine Shu clicked her tongue thinking about the scene at that time. Can't stop, "Man said it was Concubine Zhao. At that time, I was too scared. I have been in the palace for so many years, and it was the first time I saw the queen mother get angry. But after all, she was not angry, but the whole body The aura of the stock is really too intimidating."
"The Empress Dowager has spent most of her life in the palace, so she is naturally not an ordinary housewife. Besides, Empress Zhenxian is her own niece. She grew up under her knees, and she also protects Empress Zhenxian," Zhong Ming'e said. While reaching out to pour a cup of tea and handing it to Concubine Shu, he paused and said, "It's just that I don't understand, it's enough for the Empress Dowager to teach Concubine Zhao in private, why bother in front of Concubine Mother?"
"I'm afraid it just happened to be in time," Concubine Shu snorted coldly while cupping her cup of tea, "If I knew that Concubine Zhao Gui was going to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, I definitely wouldn't go there. Dare to ridicule Bengong in front of the queen mother, tsk tsk tsk, but when the queen mother opened her mouth, that cheap hoof suddenly became weak. If it wasn't for Bengong's support, she might not be able to take a step. It can be seen that she is just a stern master Son."
"But I think it's not a coincidence." Zhong Ming'e didn't focus on the harem women's battle, he frowned and looked at Concubine Shu, "I think that the queen mother is going to use Concubine Zhao and your The mouth lets the inside and outside of the palace understand a truth."
Concubine Shu was startled: "What reason?"
"Although the prince is abolished, he is still the son of the empress. Whoever dares to abolish the prince will be dead," Zhong Ming'e said slowly, rubbing his teacup, "and, in the future, no matter who it is, anyone who mentions the abolishment of the prince will be killed." Be careful."
Concubine Shu was stunned: "Then is this what the Queen Mother meant? Or the Long Live Lord?"
"It's both the queen mother's meaning and the father's meaning," Zhong Ming'e said, staring at the piece of green bamboo on the screen, and said slowly, "Although the prince was deposed, it was the meaning of the long live Lord, but the Zhao family did not." It took a lot of effort, but when the abandoned prince arrived at Ninggu Pagoda, the father turned his face and chopped up Yutangchun in the palace. It can be seen that the father did not trust the Zhao family as much as it appeared, and it may be that the father regretted it. No matter what the reason is for making the deposed prince so miserable, the emperor's attitude is very clear now. He wants to send a message to the inside and outside of the palace through the ceremony of offering sacrifices to Queen Zhenxian, and the queen mother will not be here today. Is it to convey the message on behalf of the emperor? Presumably at this time, everyone inside and outside the palace has already known that the ceremony of the Zhenxian Queen's sacrifice is still the same as in previous years, and will not be affected by the deposed prince."
