The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 402: Secret Counterattack (4)
"It's not easy to be a queen, and it's even more difficult to be a concubine. The queen must know how to be content." The queen mother looked at the engraving of the copper auspicious animal head in the corner, and gently persuaded: "It's getting late, what the Ai family has said for so long I'm tired too, the empress should go back too, when you have nothing to do, think about how to serve the emperor well, after all, it's a husband and wife, and it's what you wanted wholeheartedly, if you have fate, you should cherish this affection."

The Empress Dowager has always been in poor health, and the Empress did not dare to disturb her any longer, she hurriedly got up and said: "Then Empress Mother should rest earlier, the concubine will leave first."

Seeing the queen holding Zheyue's hand and leaving the door, Mother Zhou smiled and asked, "The queen mother is tired, so let the servants take care of the queen mother to wash?"

The queen mother looked at the entrance of the hall and shook her head in dissatisfaction, and sighed: "Queen, what can the Ai family say about her? It's not that the Ai family doesn't love her, but that her temperament really doesn't suit the Ai family's wishes. The little concubine, besides, has no background, is it worth her to stop her personally? Look at the emperor's harem today, there are only a few concubines with slightly higher status, she can't stand it like this, think about it When the Ai family was the empress, how many concubines and concubines were there? Not to mention those concubines and concubines, alas, it is difficult to be a big one without the generosity of others."

Nanny Zhou took the wet handkerchief that Baozhu handed over, folded three stacks and handed it to the queen mother, and said with a gentle smile: "The queen can't be compared with the queen mother back then, when the queen mother was her age, she had two The prince is now, so it's no wonder she can't hold her breath. But the queen is still young, and she has experienced few things, not as difficult as we were at that time. She has suffered less hardships, and her temper is inevitably more impetuous. The queen mother will bother to mention more .”

The Empress Dowager wiped her face, handed the veil to Baozhu, and said coldly: "Many things, the Emperor is concerned about Aijia, and will save some face for the Empress, but she has to be able to hold up the appearance, otherwise it will be in vain. "

Nanny Zhou handed over the green salt again, and waited on the sidelines with a gargle cup in her hand, with a little emotion in her tone, "The emperor looks cold on the surface, but he is still very filial to the Queen Mother, especially after being favored by Concubine Cong Rong, The emperor's temperament seems to be much gentler than before, this concubine Rong is also a comfort to the emperor, but there must be no more mistakes, otherwise..."

The queen mother took the tea, rinsed her mouth, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said, "The Ai family thinks so, the emperor was raised under the empress dowager's lap when he was a child, and the Ai family only cared about the prince and cared little about him. , I always felt that I owed him. Later, because of the Xie family's affairs, it made him feel colder. Although the Xie family was to blame, but the emperor was still a child at that time, and it was understandable that the court was dangerous. The Ai family didn't fulfill their responsibilities as a mother and didn't teach him well. Since he likes Concubine Rong, then let him go, as long as she can't make any big troubles, the Ai family won't tolerate her either."

Nanny Zhou gave a relieved smile, knowing that the Queen Mother had completely let go of the Xie family's grievances, otherwise the Queen Mother would definitely not keep Concubine Rong and Xie Wanyi's three-point similarity to the Emperor, "Dear Queen Mother Don't worry, the servant looks at Rong Concubine's behavior coldly, she is gentle and humble, she has always respected the Queen very much, and she is lenient in everything, judging from her usual attire, she doesn't look like the kind of woman who can seduce the Lord, She is knowledgeable and reasonable, gentle and submissive, no wonder the emperor loves her a little more."
