Rebirth: Return to Houfu

Chapter 77

The huge palace is full of secrets, but it is also the place where secrets cannot be hidden the most.The news that Gu Fangling was invited by the imperial concubine was soon known by the empress.At the same time, he also knew that there was Wei Qingmo who was specially waiting in the palace bedroom today.

As soon as Wei Qingmo heard about this, he immediately stood up.He didn't bother to negotiate with the queen, so he walked outside the door.

Wei Qingmo's reaction was too quick, and he didn't look calm and collected in the past.Even the queen was stunned on the spot, unconsciously thinking of a certain exploration that was previously considered impossible.

The crown prince likes Gu Fangling?It didn't look like it before!Apart from caring for Gu Fangling a lot, the queen didn't see that Wei Qingmo was interested in Gu Fangling.At least when the crown prince came to her to mention Gu Fangling last time, he didn't show any signs.

However, if Gu Fangling was simply the prince's savior when he was young, why should the prince be so panicked?I'm afraid she missed something very important!

Think about it too.Gu Fangling is not only beautiful, but also has a pretty good temper. She really has the capital to attract men.Even with Gu Fangling's status, it is impossible to become the crown princess, but... once the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, how can there be such a lack of seat in the harem?
Compared with the imperial concubine's careful consideration and careful consideration of the fifth prince's side concubine, the queen's side is obviously much more tolerant.Because she knows better than anyone else that, as the king of a country, even if there are no three thousand concubines in the harem, there will definitely be dozens of stunning women with their own merits.

The queen has met Gu Fangling, and with Gu Fangling's appearance, it is not difficult to move into the harem.As for Gu Fangling's bad reputation, at most it would hinder Gu Fangling's path to becoming a concubine, and it would not affect Gu Fangling's becoming a favorite concubine.

Thinking of this, the queen couldn't help but start to change her view of Gu Fangling.Putting aside the previous thoughts without any distracting thoughts, he began to seriously consider Gu Fangling's character.

"Queen, should we go and have a look?" The princesses were all left behind when they came to pay their respects to the queen early in the morning.After sitting and waiting for so long, but hearing that Gu Fangling was kidnapped by the imperial concubine, she was immediately dissatisfied.

Royal concubine, is this intentional?They didn't believe that the imperial concubine didn't know why Gu Fangling entered the palace today.It's fine for the imperial concubine to fight with the queen in the past, why did they even provoke them today?
"Well, let's go together!" After so many years, the battle between the queen and the imperial concubine has already changed from the open to the dark.What's more, if the imperial concubine deliberately provokes him occasionally, the queen has the right to turn a blind eye and ignore it.

If it is not necessary, the queen will not do things that are demeaning, in case she is caught wrong.Now she already understands that as long as her queen position is secure enough, no one can move Wei Qingmo's crown prince position.

As for whether she can hold on to the queen's position, that's a very simple matter.The old ancestors taught that as long as she had a prince under her knees, unless she made an irreparable mistake, no one would be able to touch her, an upright queen, even if she did nothing.

If you don't fight, you win.That being the case, how could the queen do unnecessary things foolishly?No matter who the Holy One favors or values ​​highly, she just needs to close her eyes and wait until the day when Wei Qingmo ascends the throne as emperor.As for the others, the queen has long since given up her expectations.

But when it comes to Gu Fangling, it's not that the queen has no plans in her heart.She herself has experienced harem battles, and she has a thorough understanding of love in the palace.But when it comes to her only prince, the queen inevitably wants to deal with Wei Qingmo.

The candidate for the crown princess, even the queen cannot decide.It can be seen from the fact that the Holy Majesty has not let go until now, that the Holy Majesty is still choosing.

The position of the crown prince and side concubine?The queen had long thought of a suitable candidate, but she hadn't mentioned it to Wei Qingmo yet.The main concubine has not yet been established, what about the side concubine?No matter how anxious the queen is, she still has to wait for a good opportunity to come.

So, what kind of position should Gu Fangling be placed in?Whether it is the crown prince's main concubine or side concubine, it is impossible.If Wei Qingmo really cared about Gu Fangling, he could only wait until he became the new emperor before making other arrangements.

Because Gu Fangling had saved Wei Qingmo, the queen did not reject Gu Fangling's entry into the palace.The most indispensable thing in the harem is women. If you have more Gu Fangling, there will be no more, and if you lose her, there will be no less.However, if Gu Fangling's entry into the palace can make Wei Qingmo happy, the queen must support it.

She didn't know that on the way to the imperial concubine's bedroom, the queen had already made a decision for Gu Fangling's future destination.Wei Qingmo stood coldly outside the imperial concubine's bedroom, but had to wait for the so-called transmission.

"I don't know, but in this harem, apart from the Holy Majesty's bedroom, there are places that I can't enter." The queen, who arrived behind the back Qingmo, mocked with a half-smile.

All the palace people outside the imperial concubine's bedroom immediately knelt down to apologize, their complexions paled.They didn't dare to be rude in front of His Highness the Crown Prince, it was really the imperial concubine's order before.And His Royal Highness is a male guest after all, so it is not appropriate to enter and leave the concubine's bedroom at will, so...

Who would have thought that the empress would follow behind the prince?What's more, they didn't expect the empress's anger to come so quickly, they were so frightened that they didn't even have the time to find the imperial concubine for help, and they panicked in an instant.

The imperial concubine didn't intend to pay attention to the commotion outside the palace gate, but the palace staff informed that it was the crown prince who came to visit.

No matter how proud the imperial concubine was, she dared not ignore Wei Qingmo, the crown prince.They exchanged glances with Wei Qian, and greeted them personally.

Brother Prince again!Wei Xiding was not surprised at Wei Qingmo's arrival.But what she didn't expect was that Wei Qingmo would come so soon.Before she could teach Gu Fangling a good lesson, Wei Qingmo approached her.

The thoughts in her heart suddenly turned, and Wei Qian slapped Gu Fangling suddenly.At least before Wei Qingmo came in, she had to teach Gu Fangling a lesson before venting her anger.

However, Gu Fangling, who had been on guard for a long time, quickly turned around and avoided it.Before she heard Wei Qingmo's arrival, she was on guard for the time being.Hearing that Wei Qingmo was already standing outside the imperial concubine's palace, she would not allow herself to be bullied.

Not hitting Gu Fangling really made Wei Qian unhappy.With a wave of his hand, he scolded the servants in the room: "Hold her down for the princess!"

Concerned about Wei Qian's identity, the servants obeyed and walked towards Gu Fangling together.

At the same moment, Wei Qingmo who was outside the palace gate broke in under the guidance of the queen without waiting for the imperial concubine's response.Since there were several princesses in the group, it didn't seem rude and arrogant.

"My sister has met my sister, please..." Seeing the queen from a distance, the imperial concubine's expression changed.Just as he was thinking of going forward to salute, the queen ignored him.

The smile on her face froze, a cold light flashed in the eyes of the imperial concubine, she turned around in displeasure, intending to stop the queen.She believed that with Wei Qian's intelligence, she should know what to do at the critical moment to relieve her hatred.

"Sister, what are you doing?" Being blocked by the imperial concubine, the queen was not in a hurry, and stood there calmly.

The imperial concubine only stopped the queen, but forgot that there was another Wei Qingmo.Looking at the whole imperial concubine's palace, who else would dare to stop His Highness the Crown Prince besides herself?

Since the imperial concubine was held back by the empress, Wei Qingmo naturally entered the inner hall unimpeded.After that, I saw Gu Fangling being restrained by several palace guards and being slapped by Wei Qian with a ferocious face.

"Stop!" Furious, Wei Qingmo walked over quickly and stopped Wei Qian's raised hand.

Before Wei Qingmo came in, Wei Qian failed to hit Gu Fangling.And after Wei Qingmo came in, she couldn't meet Gu Fangling even more.The wrist was tightly grasped by Wei Qingmo, Wei Qian pursed her mouth and tried to break free, but she couldn't move at all.

Raising her head, Wei Qian blinked innocently, her face full of grievances: "Brother Prince, you hurt me."

"Who gave you permission to beat her?" Wei Qian's begging for mercy did not cause Wei Qingmo to let go.On the contrary, Wei Qingmo's face was condensed, and his gaze on Wei Qian was like a sharp sword, with an aggressive look.

Frightened by Wei Qingmo's aura, Wei Qian couldn't help but want to dodge, trembling all over in fear: "I, I..."

"His Royal Highness, please let go, and be careful not to hurt Xiaoqian." When the imperial concubine walked in, it happened to be such a moment.Reluctantly following behind the queen into the hall, he persuaded.

Compared with the panic on the face of the imperial concubine, the queen's expression was much calmer.Squinting her eyes, she carefully checked whether Gu Fangling was injured.

"Are you okay?" The Queen's tone was very gentle, but she was not directed at Wei Qian, but at Gu Fangling.

"Return to the empress's words, and my daughter is fine." Gu Fangling shook her head in a little panic, and responded in a well-behaved manner.Because he was not sure about the empress's attitude, he didn't dare to be presumptuous, and he didn't allow her to be unruly.

"It's fine." The queen's face remained unchanged, and then she looked at Wei Qingmo who still hadn't let go of Wei Qian, and said meaningfully, "Okay, don't get angry, the prince, we are all family."

The imperial concubine's expression was shocked, and her heart skipped a beat.What is "all family"?Did the Queen include Gu Fangling in her words?If so, whose "family" is Gu Fangling?His Royal Highness, or... her Fifth Prince?

After receiving the queen's signal, Wei Qingmo finally let go of Wei Qian.However, just from the air-conditioning all over his body, he knew that this matter was not over yet, Wei Qian had completely angered him.

Of course Wei Qian didn't want to anger Wei Qingmo.On weekdays, when she saw Wei Qingmo, she wanted to stay away, let alone confront Wei Qingmo face to face.The current situation is not what she wants, but there is no way to reverse it.

"I'm afraid the prince has misunderstood something? Bengong and Xiaoqian just invited Miss Gu to come and sit down for a while, there is no malice." Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, and there was a commotion in her bedroom, the imperial concubine had no choice but to force herself Stand up bravely and try to mediate.

"Really?" Looking at Wei Qian lukewarmly, Wei Qingmo twitched the corners of his mouth, "Why can't the prince see that the little princess doesn't mean anything malicious?"

Wei Qian bit her lips tightly. At this time, she should obediently follow the words of the imperial concubine and bow her head to Wei Qingmo honestly to apologize.However, she didn't want to let it go like this, and couldn't bear the humiliation and grievance she had suffered.

Vigorously throwing away the imperial concubine who was holding her hand, Wei Qian glared at Gu Fangling emotionally: "That's right, I just wanted to make trouble for Gu Fangling! I just want Gu Fangling to explain to me face to face, she How can you destroy my marriage and confuse Qin Yunran to withdraw my marriage!"

Qin Yunran?Why is the marriage of the prime minister's mansion suddenly involved?Wei Qingmo frowned and looked at Gu Fangling.

Meeting Wei Qingmo's questioning gaze, Gu Fangling shook her head: "I don't know..."

"Enough! Gu Fangling, stop standing here and pretend to be innocent! Who are you lying to? You don't know? You don't know? I think you are the only one in the world who really knows what's going on! On the one hand, he hooked up with Brother Wu Huang while wanting to refuse to welcome, and on the other hand, he shamelessly entangled Qin Yunran. You refused to let go of even the noble brother Prince. Next, do you plan to plot against Brother San Huang who just returned to the palace? Come on?" Hearing that Gu Fangling dared to deny it, Wei Qian exploded in rage, pointing at Gu Fangling's nose and scolding, "How can you be so brazen? You don't care about the reputation of the Marquis Gu's mansion, and you don't care about the reputation of General Wanwei." Don't you want it too? You..."
