Chapter 290 Everyone in the palace takes it for granted

"They actually didn't call me when they had a party in the garden?" Li Wanyun only got the letter the next day. He didn't know why they excluded him. It would be understandable if they didn't invite Concubine Chun, but what does it mean if they don't call her either?

"Master, don't be angry. What good can you do by hanging out with them? They are all unpopular. As for the imperial concubine, the queen was better when she was there and would support her. Now the queen doesn't know where she is. She Normally, she only stays in her palace and does not go out. Only Concubine Cheng has been pampered for a few days. As soon as Concubine Chun says something, the emperor will not go there again, let alone those two. The emperor may not even look at her. , so the master doesn’t have to argue with them. If you want to make friends with them, it’s better to go to Changle Palace to make friends with them.” The girl waiting next to her saw that she was angry and persuaded her.
After hearing what the girl said, Li Wanyun felt that it was good. If Concubine Chun was willing to give her some favors, and His Majesty the Emperor would listen to her in everything, she might be able to get His Majesty to come to her palace.
"If it's someone else, I really can't speak, especially if it's the late empress. We had problems when we were daughters, and she wouldn't speak for me no matter what. But this second young lady, even though she is a concubine, we still can't. You can speak well," Li Wanyun said, with a little joy on his face.
I have been in the palace for many years and have never been favored. I have to be reprimanded even when I return home. Now why not take this good opportunity to make friends with the second young lady. It will be good if I can be looked at by His Majesty. When I return home, I will not be Can't hold my head up
"What do you think Concubine Chun is thinking about now, and what does she want most?" Li Wanyun asked
This little girl is quite smart. After thinking about it for a while, she said, "Now she is the first one in the harem. She has all the honors and statuses she should have. I think she wants to be the queen."

"She wants to be a queen, and I still want to," Li Wanyun hummed. "If I had that ability, why would I do this?"

"Master, why don't you help her with small things? If there is a thorn in her heart, help her pull it out, and then use it to show her kindness, maybe you can win her heart," the little girl said again

"What's the thorn in her heart? If I were like her now, I would only be happy," Li Wanyun said while thinking about it.
"The queen is her thorn, so is the prince, well...and so is Cheng Guiren who is pregnant," the little girl said again
"Queen? Prince? Does she really want to?" It's not like Li Wanyun has never thought this before, but she was still a little shocked when she heard it from others.
"Master, what I said today is overstepping my bounds. But if this slave is her and she has a son, why don't you fight for it? If you fight well, you will be the queen mother. If you don't fight, you will be a concubine living a hard life in the harem. , with Concubine Chun’s personality, will she be willing to be subordinate to others? She is still a subordinate to others who she is completely dissatisfied with.” The little girl arrived again
"The empress and the crown prince, how can I do it?" Li Wanyun was a little scared, and even more discouraged, fearing that he would not be able to make friends with the noble concubine Chun, so he could only spend his days in the palace like this.

"What about Cheng Guiren? She is about to give birth now. If she gives birth to a girl, forget it. If she gives birth to a boy, look at how uncomfortable Chun Guiren must be. I heard that Cheng Guiren still has two babies in her belly. "The little girl said in Li Wanyun's ear.
"Cheng Ruolan?" Li Wanyun muttered. In order to live a comfortable life in the palace and at home, he could only feel sorry for her.

"Mother, look, Honglin can write letters." Just that day, Pao'er received a letter from the third prince who was far to the northwest with Tiedan'er.
After hearing this, the second lady took the letter and opened it. When she saw the handwriting, she laughed, "My dear, this can also be called a letter. The writing is crooked. How many people can read it all?"

"It's already good. Honglin used to be naughty and tight, so he never learned how to read and write. In the past two years with General Huang, he has learned martial arts well and is willing to learn to write. This is very good." The poor man held the letter in his hands. Full of joy
"Then tell me quickly, what did our Third Highness write?" The second lady then asked. If she couldn't guess it herself, she would have to ask the poor man to tell her.

"He said that he had grown taller and stronger. He talked about planting melons with General Huang, and also talked about Chengzhe. He said that his uncle looked very good every day, but he always stayed up late at night." Read this, No matter how hard it is for a poor child to continue reading, his heart will be so painful that he can't breathe.

The second lady even wiped away tears.
The two of them didn't speak for a long time.

"Why is grandma crying here? What happened?" Fortunately, Zitong has recovered now, and Princess Qing also allowed her to go out for a walk. She came to see Pao'er first. As soon as she entered the door, she saw that Pao'er's face was not good-looking. , while the second lady was sitting there crying. When the poor boy saw Zi Tong holding Jiu Sheng in his arms, he quickly stood up and hugged Jiu Sheng. "It's been cold these days, why do you just let the child wear so little and just carry him out? He's already "Weak"

"How could he be so weak? He's grown up now, and his grandmother fed him well. You see, he's strong and it's fine. But what's wrong with his mother? Where is his grandmother?" Why is Zitongzi concerned about her mother? The two of them look like this with their grandmothers

"It's not a big deal." Pao'er didn't want to say more, fearing that Zi Tong would be sad too, so he hugged Jiu Sheng and sat to play without looking at her.

Zi Tong sat next to the second lady, and the second lady wiped away her tears and did not want to say more.

"Grandma, tell me quickly, what happened?" Zi Tong was worried and kept asking.

"Your brother has sent a letter from the northwest." The poor boy had no choice but to hand the letter in his hand to Zi Tong.
"Hong Lin? What happened to him?" Zi Tong hurriedly took the letter, thinking that something had happened to Hong Lin, so he opened it and looked at it. "What kind of letter is this? It's like a ghost drawing a talisman." Zi Tong also laughed, Just by guessing, I seemed to understand the meaning, and I knew why my mother looked so ugly, and I also knew what the second lady was crying about.

She didn't dare to say anything more. First, she was sad, and she was afraid that if she said too much, it would make them both sadder.

"I didn't expect that Honglin could actually write letters," Zi Tong said. She wanted to put the matter aside in a very gentle way. "Look, there are still people who dare to steal their melons. Who is this grandmother talking about?" ?”

"That's your uncle Tiedan'er's biological mother," Poverty said. Ever since Tiedan'er returned to the northwest, Master Chunqiu has been living with Tiedan'er. After a narrow escape, mother and son were reunited. It's a happy event now. Got it
"Uncle has a biological mother." Zitong has been with Lay Heming for these years, and he doesn't know much about the Northwest
"What are these words? Who could be someone who jumped out of the cracks in the rocks?" The second lady was actually amused by her words.

"Where's your mother-in-law?" The poor child saw that Zitong was the only one coming. This is not how Princess Qing behaves. Besides, her grandson is still here, so she must follow suit.
"I went to my aunt's place in the backyard. She asked me to come over, and asked my mother to come over too." Only then did Zi Tong remember what his mother-in-law had ordered.
"Did your mother-in-law come up with something else?" Pao'er only felt that Princess Qing had learned a lot more tact from following Zhao Qing over the years, and she was much more thoughtful than before. Maybe she was surrounded by a group of official family members. , that’s why it’s like this, right?
