The emperor is reborn, the cute queen is upgraded

Chapter 107 Disguise
Duguye took a deep look at Chen Wangtai, nodded and said "OK", and left.

Concubine Chen Wang watched the emperor's guard of honor go away before turning around and continuing to walk towards Zihui Garden.

"Toffee, what do you think will happen to Mrs. Xing?" Li Yunying asked Princess Chen quietly.

Concubine Chen Wang came to Zihui Garden today and brought Li Yunying, who has been in charge of serving Chen Wang, with her.

"I'm afraid it won't end well." Princess Chen said with a sneer.

In fact, women in the harem will not end well, so what if they live to become queen mothers and concubines?
Si Luoyun, who had left the emperor in anger, was planning to visit her daughter who had received the medicine powder again, when the palace servants reported that Chen Wang Taifei was paying her respects!
elder sister?Si Luoyun was stunned for a moment, but soon ordered someone to invite Princess Chen in!

"See Empress Dowager." Princess Chen entered the room and saluted Si Luoyun who was sitting in the big chair, "My wife is here to thank Empress Empress. Thank you, Empress Dowager, for asking Imperial Physician Gong to treat Wang Chen and leave Here are the prescriptions for food supplements."

"Toffee, please stand up, you are welcome." Si Luoyun was not as warm as last time, but also a little distant and plain.

The palace maid moved a chair and invited Princess Chen to sit down.

Princess Chen looked up at Si Luoyun, and smiled faintly when she saw Liao Mu'er standing behind the queen.

"Is that the lady officer Liao?"

Princess Chen asked Liao Muer who was behind Si Luoyun, and Liao Muer stepped forward to salute, "Toffee, she is a slave."

Concubine Chen nodded, and motioned to Li Yunying who was beside her and said, "This lady Li is also an inner court lady who was brought up by my wife when she was in Chen State, and she is dedicated to serving King Chen."

Li Yunying stepped forward to give Liao Muer a blessing, Liao Muer first took a look at the obviously shy female official Li, Qian Fu returned the gift.

Si Luoyun also glanced at Li Yunying, and felt that this female official Li behaved cautiously and had a slight twinkle in her eyes. She was neither well-trained like ordinary maids, nor confident and generous like female officials, but she had the timidity of Xiaojiabiyu on a big occasion. reaction.How could Princess Chen choose such a woman as a female official to serve King Chen?
"I heard that the eldest princess was injured by a pet raised by a concubine in the harem. I don't know if the injury is serious?" Princess Chen asked with concern.

Speaking of the injured Fubao, Si Luoyun couldn't hide her distress, "It's not serious, it's just a bit of a thrill."

Then there was an awkward silence, the two sisters didn't seem to know what to say...

For a moment, Concubine Chen lowered her eyes and caressed the handkerchief in her hand, sighed and said, "Do you know, Yun'er, why I have been estranged from you since you and the emperor entered the palace?"

Si Luohe gave up her respectful title and called "Yun'er", which made Si Luoyun startled, and looked at her eldest sister with a bitter smile on her mouth with her mouth open.

"Chang...Changjie..." Si Luoyun's eyes became hot, and they also lowered.

Liao Muer saw that the Si sisters seemed to have something private to say, so she blessed her body and said, "I remember that the Empress said that she would send some plain fabrics to Concubine Chen Wang, why don't I take Miss Li to pick them out now?" Bar."

Knowing that Liao Muer was using this as an excuse to resign, Si Luoyun nodded.

Liao Muer smiled and called Li Yunying to go out with her to pick out fabrics, but Li Yunying seemed hesitant.

"Toffee..." She didn't know whether she should go with her or not.

"Yunying, you can go with Lady Liao." Princess Chen said.

Only then did Li Yunying leave with Liao Muer.

After the ladies left, the room was silent for a while.The two sisters who were already estranged suddenly wanted to say "confidant words", which was really embarrassing.

"It's said that the royal family is a most dangerous and dangerous place! When I was in the boudoir, I just thought that the concubines in my own mansion were competing for favor and calculating each other. It was the ultimate. After I became a princess, I realized that Aunt Ning and her like are just rivers. Small and medium-sized fish and small shrimps, all of them use unscrupulous tricks!" Chen Wangtai pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and sighed, "In the royal family, the person closest to you may be the one who killed you! As the former prince Who can I trust? You and my sister, I don’t want to hide it from you anymore! Even now, I’m still afraid that the emperor won’t tolerate our mother and son, and one day...he will kill Yunzhi, and in the future Get rid of future troubles!"

"..." Si Luoyun pursed her lips tightly, not looking at Princess Chen.

She is not an ignorant child, as a woman married into the royal family, she has also experienced a lot of ups and downs!In order to stabilize the political power and the throne, Dugu Ye may indeed get rid of the former prince's only legitimate son, Dugu Yunzhi!This cannot be defined by cruelty or not, after all, the success or failure of the royal family is a matter of life and death!
Seeing that Si Luoyun didn't speak, Princess Chen's heart ached even more!At the same time, he firmly took away the last trace of tenderness towards family affection in his heart!She is now Princess Chen and the mother of King Chen!She has only one relative, Chen Wang Dugu Yunzhi!
"So, please don't mind the attitude of my wife's deliberate alienation before and after, it's just my wife's self-protection." Princess Chen said weakly, "Whether it's the queen mother or the emperor, it's not my wife who can disobey you." And someone who can be offended. The minister would rather lead Chen Wangan to live quietly, and not get close to anyone!"

"... I understand." After being silent for a while, Si Luoyun also wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, and when she raised her head again, her eyes became much calmer, "Since this is what the concubine wanted, I can't force it. But If the concubine and Chen Wang need my help with anything, just ask."

Concubine Chen stood up and blessed the body to express her gratitude, and then sat down again.

Once the words were spoken, the embarrassment and estrangement between the two sisters disappeared a lot, and the face-to-face conversation was no longer harsh.

"I heard that noble Xing was the one who caused the eldest princess to be injured?" Dowager Chen raised her eyebrows and said, "That noble Xing has been tossing too hard recently. When she caused trouble in the garden before, the empress should punish her ! There will be no chance of letting this disaster hurt the eldest princess today!"

Si Luohe showed his elder sister's demeanor and "taught" his younger sister, although he used an honorific title, but his tone was harsh!
Si Luoyun was shy, it was indeed her lack of precaution that caused Fu Bao to be injured!

"How does your empress plan to deal with nobleman Xing?" Princess Chen asked.

Si Luoyun's eyes flickered, avoiding the elder sister's aggressive stare, and said softly: "I think nobleman Xing hurt the princess by accident, so..."

"So the Empress is going to punish Noble Xing lightly?" Chen Wang Dowager's tone was unbelievable, "My Majesty... Heh! Your Majesty, you are too kind-hearted! Could it be that the life in the harem these few years hasn't satisfied you? See the facts clearly?"

Si Luohe simply hated iron for being weak!

"Facts? What facts?" Si Luoyun raised her eyes to see the indignant expression of her eldest sister, and asked in puzzlement.

"In this harem, it's useless to be on guard! As long as you see any sign of restlessness or rash action, you should ruthlessly and firmly suppress it! In case you are the one who suffers in the end!" Princess Chen said coldly. "I know that the emperor loves the empress and empress very much, but if one day the emperor... the empress will keep a hand in everything, even if she doesn't think about her own future, she must think about the future of the princess and the two princes! Empress Liang Shan, in the eyes of concubines and concubines in the harem, I am afraid that he is easy to bully!"

Si Luoyun quietly listened to the elder sister's lesson, and recalled that half a year after Si Luohe became the crown princess, she and her mother went to the prince's mansion to visit the elder sister again, the aura on Si Luohe's body and the look on his brows Everything has changed!
At that time, the eldest sister always listened to her mother's comfort, but her eyes and smile on her face were cold.The former crown prince had more than a dozen concubines, but only the crown prince concubine Si Luohe gave birth to his son Dugu Yunzhi. The other concubines were sterile when the former crown prince was still alive, not even a concubine daughter!

"Empress, although the minister's wife's words are a bit extreme, they are also kind." Seeing that Queen Si was silent, Concubine Chen wondered if she was too strict and made her sister feel uncomfortable, so she softened her tone, " Noble Lady Xing used to imitate the Empress Empress everywhere, just to attract the emperor's attention and gain favor. A stupid woman like Noble Xing, no matter whether she is favored or not, is a nuisance! Because they are stupid, sometimes they do Such stupid things will endanger the empress, the princess, and the prince."

"..." Si Luoyun sighed softly, "Sister, I have always had a question hidden in my heart. Ever since my eldest sister became the crown princess, this question has been deeply rooted in my heart, and I still have no solution."

Do you have questions after becoming a princess?Si Luohe's heart moved, and he couldn't help but think about it on the other side. Could it be that Si Luoyun knew...

"What questions does the empress have? I don't know if the minister's wife can answer?" Princess Chen asked tentatively.

Si Luoyun looked at Princess Chen's still young and beautiful face, and asked in a tone full of doubts: "Did eldest sister ever really love Prince Shang?"

"..." Princess Chen did not expect that Queen Si would ask such a question, and was momentarily stunned.

"Is it because elder sister punishes and severely treats Prince Shang's concubines because she loves and is jealous of Prince Shang?" Si Luoyun said quietly, "Like mother no longer has affection for father, as long as The power of the housekeeper in the mansion is still in her hands, so she will let the aunts to make troubles, it doesn't matter how many brothers and sisters she has..."

"Empress." Princess Chen twitched her lips and interrupted Si Luoyun's words, "No matter how fierce the dispute between the courtiers and the wives and concubines of the people's family is, the concubine will still be the concubine, and the wife will still be the wife! If the wife dies and remarries, those who A concubine can't be the mistress! But the harem is different. There are many concubines with good family backgrounds. Isn't it the best example for you, empress, to become Princess Chen from a beauty? No matter whether you are affectionate or ruthless to the emperor , without delaying those women who are peeping at your empress position and want to control the harem after winning the emperor's heart. The emperor is born of Mrs. Liu, who became the new prince after the death of Prince Shang, and then ascended The throne... the things that happened to me and around me are not enough to make the empress see everything clearly? The empress empress has such doubts, it can only prove that you are still too kind." It is too naive!

Si Luoyun pursed her lips and sighed again, falling silent again.

Concubine Chen Wang felt that it would be good to stop the direct conversation between herself and Empress Si, but if she talked too much, she would feel provocative, so she got up and left.

After leaving the room, Liao Muer and Li Yunying who were sitting in the small tea room stood up to meet them.

"Your Majesty, my wife is a little overstepped today, please don't blame me, Your Majesty." Before leaving, Concubine Chen Wang gave a blessing to Empress Si.

"The concubine is worrying too much. I have benefited a lot from the concubine's words." Si Luoyun nodded.

Ordered the palace servants to send Concubine Chen off, and Si Luoyun and Liao Muer entered the house.

Si Luoyun sat in a chair in a daze, and Liao Muer didn't dare to disturb her.

It wasn't until about a cup of tea that Si Luoyun came back to her senses, and her face was a bit tired.

"Your Majesty, did Princess Chen tell you... anything?" Liao Muer asked softly and tentatively.

Before, Empress Si was unhappy because of Concubine Chen's indifference. Today, Concubine Chen took the initiative to chat with the empress, but the queen still didn't look happy. Could it be that the chat was not very pleasant?
"Mu'er, I suddenly feel that I am also... despicable." Si Luoyun said quietly.
