Chapter 257 Pursuit (2)

The queen raised her hand gently, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and covered her nose with her fingers that were obviously open and closed. She covered her inner embarrassment, and looked down, so she dared not let the emperor see her lost and jealous appearance.

"Wan Yi, you are a smart person in the harem." The emperor shouted out the queen's name for the first time, and put his face forward earnestly. His eyebrows raised curiously in the form of trust, and his eyes were full of earnest. "What do you think about this matter? Tell me."

Wan Yi, when this name was spoken from the emperor, contained thousands of deep affection, splitting out the queen's thoughts in a thread, entangled with it, and finally intertwined into the sweetest harem life.

However, at this moment, the sound of Wan Yi contained a false intention. The queen obviously could not feel the warmth she had before.

She naturally knew that the emperor called Wan Yi so kindly because she had something to ask for. Unexpectedly, the once loving couple had fallen to the point where they needed conditions to show their love. She was frustrated and looked at the maids who were cleaning up blood outside, as if she saw herself who had just entered the palace, she was not as cruel as she was, but more gentle as water.

What turned himself into such a cruel person step by step, is that he fell out of favor, and was a younger and more beautiful concubine, especially the Concubine Wei, who was favored for only three years and had all the souls of the emperor. Since Concubine Wei's death, the emperor's newly appointed concubines have the shadow of Concubine Wei, which even made the queen collapse.

I don’t know when she started, but she gradually became fierce and harsh, and often beat and scolded the palace maids. She didn’t want to do this, but she had nowhere to vent her anger.

At this moment, seeing a man who has changed his heart pretending to love himself for the sake of the children who love women deeply, she felt a few pains and helplessness in her heart, but when facing this emperor, she still pretended to be normal and decent on the surface.

She decorates her face with the most appropriate smile: "Your Majesty, this is really difficult, and the Eighth Princess and the Ninth Princess are the pearls of your hand. It is better to go take a shower and change your clothes first and let me think about it. I will tell you after you come out."

"Well, that's fine." The emperor's face showed a disappointed expression, his eyes moved away from the queen, nodded, and slowly walked into the bathroom.

The queen sighed in her heart. She originally wanted her daughter, the third princess Biyan, to marry the martial arts top scholar. She had been too strict with her husband and took a long time to pick her up, and she actually made the third princess under the age of 18 to become an old girl. Now she finally found a satisfying martial arts top scholar, but the martial arts top scholar is only 20 years old and Biyan is already twenty-five years old. This woman has so many marriages than men in Ming Kingdom. It just so happened that the eighth princess and the ninth princess liked the martial arts top scholar, so it would be better to give your Majesty the Majesty himself to please His Majesty.

Now Mingguo is in the stage of marriage with Chenguo. She thought that if both princesses were married to the martial arts champion, the task of marriage would fall on her daughter Biyan, so she could not make such suggestions. She could only choose one from the Eighth Princess and the Ninth Princess.

The queen looked at Cuizhu with a slightly embarrassed expression: "Cuizhu, since I entered the palace, you have been my think tank. What should you do about this? Alas, no matter which princess is marrying Qin Changfu, it is better to come without anyone to marry him. Our Ming Kingdom is not a good man. These two princesses are really

Yes, it is worthy of being born by Concubine Wei. One is more worry-free than the other, and it is not a good waste. Last year, they were asked to marry each other, but they refused. Now when they meet such a good partner, they can compete with each other. They only know how to enjoy themselves all day long, but they don’t know that marrying the royal princess should fulfill their responsibilities. It’s not like my beauties, sensible and generous. It’s better to let them compete and win the marriage to Qin Changfu.”

Cuizhu thought to herself: When I chose the princess to marry her last year, didn’t you and Princess Biyan refuse? She was so embarrassed to say that other princesses were selfish. But she just thought about it in her heart and didn’t dare to show it in front of the queen.

The queen frowned slightly, as if she was dissatisfied with Cuizhu's dissatisfaction: "What's wrong with you? Are you confused when you are old? You can't hear what I say? Or have you been with me for so many years and been spoiled by me?"

Cuizhu is indeed old, not as smart and clever as she was when she was young, so she could give advice to the queen at any time.

"Empress, in my opinion, it's better to betroth both princesses to the top scholar of martial arts."

When the queen heard this, the tea she had just drunk was almost spit out. She blinked in surprise, her eyes facing Cuizhu unequally: "The two princesses promised to a martial arts top scholar, you are crazy, this is simply messing around."

"Ahem." The emperor walked out of the bathroom in neatly dressed, his face much better than before.

"Your Majesty, have you gone to take a shower? What's going on? Isn't the servant serving you well?"

"No, the queen's servants are the best at doing things. I just heard Cuizhu's suggestion. According to me, this method is the best. Queen, don't be too rigid." The emperor took the queen's hand and patted it gently. Even though he didn't care how smooth the forearms were.

"Your Majesty." The queen asked again, "Where is our daughter Bi Jin, please choose a good princess for her. She is almost twenty-five years old and is still in the boudoir. If she ends up working, she will become an old princess."

"This... Chen State is eyeing us and is ready to kiss us now. Now we need a princess to marry us. It is time for our beauties to fulfill her duties." However, the emperor said such understatement in his serious tone, which made the queen feel heartbroken.

The queen was a little anxious and no longer cared about the decent, so she hurriedly said, "But last year, the king of Chen was obviously interested in the Ninth Princess."

The emperor sighed: "Oh, Wanyi, why did you become so reckless when you first entered the palace? You are fifty years old, so you should set some examples for others."

"But, the king of Chen clearly faces the Ninth Princess..."

"Okay, this thing that is interesting to anyone is unsure. Bi Jing is not worse than Lao Jiu. As long as the king of Chen Guo looks at Bi Jing a few times, he will definitely be fascinated by it. What's more, Lao Jiu is only fifteen years old. If she goes to Chen Guo, what's wrong with me, how can I explain to Lian Huan?"

Lian Huan...is this name again. It turns out that His Majesty has never forgotten her, Concubine Wei, who was the favorite of the harem.

The queen sneered in her heart: Concubine Wei’s two daughters are your treasures. Isn’t my daughter Jiu? She is a father, why are there such a big difference in treatment?

Recalling Concubine Wei, seventeen years ago, she was a little palace maid in the central palace, responsible for serving her master by the bed every night. Who would have thought that the reason why the queen, who had fallen out of favor at that time, was able to get the emperor's favor every night was because

For this Lianhuan, the poor queen did not know the truth until the day when Lianhuan was named the imperial concubine.

She hated Concubine Wei, who was loved by San Qian, very much, but she was powerless.

Concubine Wei had a poor life. Although she gave birth to two children in two years, she was both princesses, and she died after giving birth to the ninth princess. The queen thought that the emperor could look at her a few more times, but she did not expect that the emperor ignored her and even refused to come to the central palace once every three months.

It would be fine if he was ruthless to himself, but he was so indifferent to his daughter. Bi Yan never enjoyed the emperor's affection for a day, but Lao Ba and Lao Jiu were held in the palm of their hands every day. How could these things not make the queen feel uncomfortable?

The emperor raised his head and asked, "Empress, that's it. You know, the marriage matter cannot be delayed any longer." After that, he walked out the door.

"Your Majesty." said the queen anxiously, "Where are you going?"

"Well, I'm going to go to Concubine Chen's palace, and she has sent someone to ask me for several days." The emperor walked out without any hesitation.

The dark clouds outside gradually connected into one, covering the only little moonlight. The lanterns strung into lines on the ground illuminated the entire road, reflecting His Majesty's still blushing face, while the bitter color of the queen who was guarding the central palace alone formed a sharp contrast with it.

"Cuizhu, let's turn off all the palace lanterns." The queen sat upright in her seat and said quietly.

"Empress, now that the lamp is turned off, how can you eat, take a shower and change your clothes?" Cuizhu advised.

"I won't eat anymore! I said I won't eat before Your Majesty!" The queen suddenly roared.

"Empress!" Cuizhu knelt down, "Don't be angry, you can eat some at least."

"You are so embarrassed to persuade me?" The queen suddenly stood up and opened her eyes to Cuizhu kneeling on the ground. "If the suggestion you just made was heard by His Majesty, how could my daughter have fallen to the point of marriage? Although Chen State is richer than my Ming State, she is thousands of miles away from our Ming State. I am afraid that I will never see my daughter again in my life!"

Cuizhu suddenly realized the stupid things she had done. A year ago, she could still calmly think about the queen's thoughts, but her mind has become difficult to use recently.

"Grandmaster, forgive me." Cuizhu didn't dare to say anything else. She was very nervous at this moment. Recently, the queen's temper has become increasingly irritable. When she is angry, she may do something extremely excessive to her servants. The little palace maid who was killed by the stick just now is a living example.

Cuizhu was anxious and did not dare to plead for her daughter anymore. She just lowered her head and knelt on the ground.

The queen looked at Cuizhu and glared at her fiercely, let out a heavy "hum" sound from her nose, and walked into the bedroom with her head raised, and said, "You can all push it off, I want to sleep."

Cuizhu watched the queen walk in, and like other palace maids, she kept her original movements unmoved for a while, then stood up and did not dare to sigh, so she had to complain in her heart: Queen, you have such a cruel heart. When you first entered the palace, I gave you the idea to get your Majesty's favor, and I helped you gain your Majesty's trust and successfully become the Queen of the Daming Kingdom. Now, not only do you not miss my good deeds, but you want my daughter to marry so far away, endure danger and endure the pain of homesickness. I will definitely not let you have a good time, Queen, you wait.
