"Ann Neng and JunXiang Tips" / The first appearance of the sharp edge
Previous Chapter: Ancient Style Novel (Thirty-Five): Mo compares the fallen city to color, and never came from home to the country for the death of Yi
The jade is cold, the rivers and mountains are lightly abandoned, and the flowing water falls on the flowers; when the dream first awakens, the iron riding golden armor flies sand, and the acacia bright moon is sent.
After the scientific examination, someone sent the roster of saints who entered the temple to the Qiankun Hall, Su Jin looked at the people above, and there was no name of Su Dare, so he relaxed his mind slightly, but listened to Murr on the side: "Saint Shang knows that Niangniang's younger brother also came to take the exam, and he specially summoned Su Gongzi, that Su Gongzi is not a person who covets fame and profit, and is very liked by Shengshang." ”
As he was speaking, the person who had gone to the imperial study to meet the emperor had already retreated, and when Su Jin entered, he was just angry, thinking that the conversation with the man had not been discussed, he put the roster of the face saint and the copied recital in front of him, reached out and pinched his shoulders for him, and when he saw that his brow finally stretched a little, he did not stop, and continued to press the unpleasantness of his brow.
Recently, more and more people in the hundred officials impeached her harem to interfere in politics, and when she copied it, she saw that several pieces of music had her name or title written on them, and asked Moore to investigate for herself, and she had a fixed number in her heart, and she was calm, as if she did not take these things to heart.
"Jin Er, I want to set you up as the queen."
"Are you in charge of the Phoenix Seal and the Mother's World?"
"In the harem, except for you, I don't know who else can make you feel at ease."
Su Jin pulled more bows and arrows, and the strength of her hands was much greater than that of other women, although this was still weak in the eyes of men, but the matter of massaging and kneading for others was still what Su Jin liked most.
She sighed, and the tail note was pulled very high, as if she was puzzled: "But the concubines are not ready, and the most favored by the monarchs of the dynasties has never been the empress, compared with the power, the concubines prefer to stay by His Majesty's side every day, spending the moon before and before, raising eyebrows, white heads and old age, and foaming at each other." ”
"If you are a boy, you are a man with no ambitions, and you are a short-sighted person who has divineized the idiom and taught people that they cannot refute."
She hugged him from behind and lazily pressed his face to say, "Concubines are also ambitious, and they are no smaller than other women." ”
"Talk about it."
"Hmmm... I won't tell you. ”
There was a burst of laughter in the room, and after a while it gradually calmed down, and Su Jin leaned into his arms and gasped slightly, smiling like a child.
He caressed her face for a long time, and then he felt a little annoyed, and said, "Recently, some people in the DPRK have been quite critical of Yuan's preferences, and the ministers are divided into several groups every day and quarrel in the court hall, causing headaches, and they are afraid that their evil words and evil words will hurt their beloved people. ”
"The concubines know, so they have thought of a way, perhaps they can solve for Your Majesty some people who are following the tide, and the remaining concubines cannot solve them, and then Your Majesty will personally come forward and let them have nothing to say."
"What's the point of saying nothing?"
"As long as Your Majesty inadvertently confides in them that the concubines are the only one in the harem, and whoever can serve and who can be promoted to the throne is the concubine's decision, then it may make Your Majesty less headache."
He held her face in the palm of his hand and smiled, "Isn't that right in the middle of those people's arms, so that they have more to say?" ”
Su Jin pecked at his lips, leaned back into his arms, and smiled: "As long as Your Majesty listens to the concubines, will the concubines harm themselves?" ”
His heart was palpitating, she swore an oath, and the corner of her mouth smiled lightly to hide her worries.
However, a few days later, there were many people in the Xianju Hall, and he went to the Xianju Hall to see the gifts sent by others, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud, nodding the tip of her nose and saying that she was cunning.
Su Jin handed over the roster of gift-givers, and he casually glanced at it and threw it on the table.
Among the hundred officials, many of them sent their daughters to the palace, because of Su Jin's favor, their daughters did not even have the opportunity to meet the emperor, and when someone impeached Su Jin and said that she was involved in the government of the harem, naturally they would not let go of this opportunity to bring her down, and rushed to write a book to talk about the red face and the disaster of the country and the people.
When he released the words about Su Jin's position in the harem, those people came to the door with a shy face to give gifts, hoping that Su Jin could say a few kind words for their daughter in front of the emperor, as long as they could face the saint, it was not impossible to get the emperor's grace to run rampant in the harem to add glory to the family, she Su Jin was a living example.
Now that he knows which are the people who run away with the fire, he will have a lot of ease to deal with, except for a few who can't let go of Su Jin's relationship with Su Jin's sister, the rest have been cracked by him one by one, and the number of people who take this matter to make a fuss has suddenly decreased, which really saved him a lot of troubles.
If she herself said those words, no one would be convinced, but if the current emperor personally said them, the effect would naturally be greatly enhanced.
Su Jin asked him why the hundred officials were so jealous of Su Yi, and there was nothing unusual on his face when he asked, and he thought for a long time before he told her and the tray.
It was also at this time that I learned that the former Su Yi could indeed bear the title of The Beauty of the Troubled Water, but she was not interested in these, and no one would tell her this, so she didn't know anything, and was protected by the Xue family and Qi Lan Su Yi too ignorant of the world.
If it was some of the daily struggles with the harem women for favors, there were many things that Su Yi had done that she could not imagine.
For her sake, Emperor Xian sent an old minister who had been loyal and loyal for many years to the border, only because the old minister had broken the fact that she had seduced former officials in order to seek refuge; at that time, Su Yi was not as favored as later, there were wolves and tigers in the past, and she could only do everything she could to protect herself.
Then she was pregnant, the palace people said that her affair with Qi Lan was not empty, as early as the former emperor knew about the existence of Su Yi, Qi Lan found her such a person in the palace because of Su Jin's relationship, and fell in love with her at first sight, Su Yi was also bent on marrying him as a princess who had no quarrel with the world.
However, after creating people, Su Yi stepped onto the position of Concubine Ning of the First Emperor step by step between yin and yang, and finally became Lady Xu Guo.
There were many ministers in the court who died because of her, and the former emperor also knew that she was unfaithful to herself, but she never said anything, all because of her face that had brought calamity to the country and the people, and her temperament that made people boil.
At that time, many officials in the dprk also jointly wrote a letter to impeach Su Yi, demanding that her title be revoked and that she be reduced to a commoner, and that she should not be allowed to re-enter the palace in this life, and Emperor Xian, in a fit of rage, deposed many officials and executed two Zhengsanpin officials who had vowed to kill Su Yi.
Even the emperor, who was still the crown prince at the time, also had an affair with her, and when Su Jin did not know that there was such a person as him in the world, Su Yu also took his heart.
Su Jin asked him again how he was different from Su Yi, but he was silent for half a moment, and finally he didn't know it, knowing that he was not interested, she no longer insisted, forced a smile, buried all emotions into his heart, and a trace of light could not penetrate.
A few nights before the winter solstice approached, some people hurried to the Xianju Hall, saying that the empress dowager was going to hang herself, Su Jin rushed with him, and there were already many people gathered in the Taifu Hall, and the empress dowager sat on the ground with a haggard face, and a palace maid hugged her, and everyone present was frightened.
Luo ChongRong quietly approached her to remind her to be careful, the rest of the people were just waiting to see her joke, Su Jin looked at the empress dowager who looked like a ghost, just smiled faintly, and guessed something in her heart.
These days, the emperor has put the matter of re-establishment on the agenda, and the rumors in the harem are boiling, Su Jin has a daughter and a son, and the emperor visits the Xianju Hall every day, not to mention Shufei, that is, the favored Luo Chongrong and the like are unable to compete with her for the throne.
But the Empress dowager did not allow it.
The harem women all live by luck, Su Jin's luck is good or bad, and the people who once thought they were close relatives, the people who slept with her, the people who were enemies of her, and the people she regarded as close friends, all let her know what is called "blessings and misfortunes, misfortunes and blessings."
"If the emperor insists on letting her take charge of the harem, then you don't want to be the queen of the mourning family." The empress dowager spoke loudly, and at this point, she seemed to have lost her dignity and face, preferring to give up her dignity and let Li Sujin run aground for the latter matter.
"Erchen knew that the empress dowager relied on Shufei to make her empress, but Shufei's character was really not enough for the mother to be the queen, and any woman in the harem was more qualified to be the empress than Shufei, let alone Su Jin."
"Then today, the Wai family will put the words here, and anyone in the harem can be the mother of the world, except Su Jin."
He could vaguely think of the reason why the empress dowager rejected Su Jin in this way, but he couldn't say it clearly, and he only wanted to give her more time to accept this matter, but Su Jin, who had been standing on the side and had not spoken, suddenly made a sound, and his calm and idle appearance startled everyone present.
She looked at the empress dowager and said word by word: "Your Majesty, it is true that the concubines are not qualified for the position of empress, so it is better to leave this position vacant for the time being, and then fill in this position when we meet a suitable candidate in the future." In this life, it is already very satisfying that concubines can accompany His Majesty, and when the wrong empress is not important to the concubines, His Majesty does not need to have a grudge with the empress dowager for the sake of concubines. ”
When the empress's gaze finally changed, she smiled and asked him to talk to the empress dowager alone, promising that the empress dowager would give up the idea of taking her own life from now on.
He was half-convinced, but thinking that Su Jin had put those people in the court together, he took everyone and temporarily withdrew, and soon, only the two of them were left in the Taifu Hall.
There are fewer people, and the heart is naturally cleaner, although it is still a little disturbed, but it is always much more reassuring than before.
"The empress dowager's prejudice against me is so deep, aren't you afraid that the emperor will be caught in the middle and embarrassed?" Her eyes were like a torch, and the various encounters after entering the palace were fermented in her heart again, but she could not act rashly now, thinking that there was still a Rong Yu in the Immortal Residence Hall, and thinking that the empress dowager had the means to kill people without blinking, she finally relented a little.
After all, the empress dowager had experienced decades of ups and downs, and obviously didn't need to care too much about Su Jin's Daoist deeds, and sneered: "You, like that slut, will only make some foxy means to confuse the emperor, how can a woman like you bear the burden of this motherly world?" ”
"Can't afford to bear it is not the empress dowager you have the final say, only then my words have been made clear, even the empress dowager can not let go?"
"Then why don't you just swear a poisonous oath and tell the emperor that you will never be this empress?"
"If you want me to swear by poison, you can also, but I have to be on guard, in case the empress dowager still refuses to let me go, then am I not wasting a great opportunity to dominate the harem?" The feeling of being forced into a corner is not good, I think the empress dowager you should understand, now the emperor only goes to the Xianju Hall, if I feel threatened, ask the emperor to give me a phoenix seal to stay in the Yi Palace... It's not impossible. ”
"There is a mourning family, don't try to beat the idea of the phoenix seal."
"Is it delusional, don't you know the Empress?"
She looked at the empress dowager for a long time, and the sarcasm in her eyes was unbridled, and it didn't look like she was comforting and persuading, and when she saw the empress dowager as a fire in her stomach, she didn't hurry and said: "When the empress dowager promised to let me enter the palace that day, she should have expected all kinds of situations that might occur in the future. ”
"When I first agreed to let you into the palace, it was because the Wai family thought that you couldn't set off any big storms, and that an abandoned woman of the Xue family could have what ability to be a demon under the eyes of the Wai family." But the mournful family has underestimated you in the end, you are in the same breath as the untouchable, and as soon as you enter the palace, you begin to be restless, and it is a sin to let you live one more day in this world. ”
"The empress dowager is a slut, and it seems that Sister Iris has indeed made you suffer a lot." Unfortunately, although I am sisters with her, I can't even learn half of her means, otherwise today I am afraid that the empress dowager will not even have the opportunity to force her to die. ”
The empress's face became more frightening, her gaze became even worse, and the atmosphere in the Taifu Hall instantly became as cold as this cold winter, and it was impossible to say whether it was colder outside or colder inside.
When she finally lost her words, Su Jin's words turned sharply and mentioned the Former Emperor: "Does the Empress Dowager remember the Xiandi Concubine Ning Clan of the Former Emperor?" When emperor Xian went out hunting, Concubine Ning Xian was burned alive in the sleeping hall, and Crown Prince Ji also disappeared into the fire. But everyone said it was an accident, and because there was no proof of death, you escaped the disaster. ”
"How do you know about this?"
It is no secret that Qi Lan, the eldest son of Concubine Ning Xian, not only found the culprit who killed his mother concubine that year, but also found the Crown Prince Ji who disappeared into the fire. Qi Lan and I are good friends, and it is not difficult to know these things. ”
The empress dowager smiled loudly, and then she narrowed her smile and said, "It's been so many years since this happened, what do you mean by talking to me about this now?" What's more, who can prove that what he found is the real dragon species? ”
"The emperor can prove it." She said that the more ugly the empress's face was, the more she was not in a hurry: "Before emperor Xiandi died, she not only saw Emperor Ji, but also left him a will, and the day the edict came out, that is, when emperor Xiandi was deposed, that is, emperor Xiandi knew what you had done, if Emperor Ji took out the edict, you would no longer be the empress of Emperor Xiandi, but you would really become a commoner, and you would not be allowed to enter the royal garden tomb after death, even if your son was the emperor, it would not help." The emperor was the king of a country, and he could only do things according to the will of the former emperor, otherwise the courtiers would be restless, and the people of the world would know that their emperor disregarded the ancestral instructions and was useless to the Jiangshan society. Empress Dowager, would you like to see the emperor lose the trust of the people of the world because of your affairs? ”
"Are you threatening the Mourning Family?"
"If the empress dowager can be at peace with me in this regard, she is not a threat." You are the Emperor's beloved mother, the Emperor is my husband, and if we can't get along, it will only be your precious son who is now the Emperor. Crown Prince Ji was used to life outside the palace, but if necessary, I don't think he would mind being a prince dressed in gold and jade and a group of servants. At present, only the emperor knows where Qi Lan is, if the empress dowager believes, I can go to Qi Lan to ask for a clear question, but if the matter of the will is known to the emperor, it will inevitably investigate this matter to the end, the empress dowager is a person who has come over, for your lifelong reputation, I think you should know what to do.... ”
Walking out of the Taifu Hall, Xingzhu took the cloak to meet her, and it snowed outside at some point, because she was worried that she was cold, Xingzhu saw that the sky was not right and took the cloak and came out to find her.
The rest of the people were sent back by the emperor, seeing her come out of it well, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, stroked her face and asked how the situation was, Su Jin whispered that everything was fine, let him go in again to see the empress, he instructed Xingzhu to escort her back and walked in.
Su Jin watched his back disappear into the door, and couldn't help but smile and tell Xingzhu to turn away.
"These days you keep an eye on the Empress, and wherever she goes and sees everyone, you must write it down."
Xingzhu understood, nodded, looked back at the Taifu Hall, and then walked up quickly to walk with her, holding her with one hand: "So let the emperor go to see the empress, what if the empress dowager takes the opportunity to chew on the emperor's tongue?" ”
"He sees everything I've done for the emperor lately, and if the empress dowager moves the emperor so easily, then aren't I busy in vain these days?"
"But the slave maid is afraid of what if..."
"It's all right, now the emperor is still reluctant to move me."
Walking all the way back to the Xianju Hall, looking back at the heavy snow that was blowing up, the feeling of suffocation was like a shadow, and I accidentally toe a little, only to find that there was a lot of snow accumulated on my head, and the apricot beads hurriedly called people out, and swept away the snow on her body for her, that scene, somewhat with a little cold.
He had always wanted to know how she had made the empress dowager clear, and su jin had been fooled by the gag; he was displeased, so Su Jin went up to him and gently pleaded with him, and the boneless body rubbed away his anger little by little, and suddenly an outsider appeared, so he immediately put away the delicacy on his face and sat up, turning back into her arrogant and cold concubine.
Su Jin thought that he had returned to Qingzhou and did not care, on the day of the winter solstice, the palace was going to hold a winter feast, but she saw Su Gan's figure in the people who were seated, and she couldn't help but be shocked, leaving the people in front of him to walk over and take him aside, and asked him how he appeared here.
He smiled and screamed before seeing Concubine Xianniang, and saw that Su Jin was solemn and undiminished before he said solemnly: "The emperor said that although I do not have the literary talent to govern the country, I can do something else for him, you know what kind of people Daddy and The Eldest Lady are, they can do whatever they want for the Heavenly Attic, I don't want to shrink in the Heavenly Attic at a young age and live in the account book, this world has a fun place, the Emperor has promised me..." ”
"Bullshit!" Su Jin was momentarily angry, and it took a while before his breath eased up: "Do you know what kind of place the palace is, and dare to break in?" What if something happens to your sister who can't save you? Tonight I will make it clear to the emperor that you will rush back to Qingzhou as soon as possible early tomorrow morning, so as not to worry your father. ”
"I don't want to go back, the emperor asked me to do things for him, and if I do a good job, there will be many rewards, but this is a fat difference, and others can't ask for it." Oh my good sister Xiao Dare knows that you are worried about me, but my sister is assured, Xiao Dare has also been mixed in the Heavenly Loft for more than ten years, and will not let your sister get into trouble. ”
"What does he want you to do?"
"The emperor asked me to follow a Gu lord to Shuzhong to collect taxes, and then escort me to Ganzhou, where there is a war with the Si people, the grain and grass are urgent, if I can handle this matter well, in the future, the emperor will not double his favor for your sister you?"
Su Jin's throat was tight, and he didn't know how to refute him, he only felt that this matter was too unreliable, Su Dared, a teenager less than twenty, how could he bear such a big task as co-ordinating in collecting taxes, it was good to be lucky, if it could not be completed, the killing of the head was certain.
She thought about it again and again, or let Su Dare go back to pack her bags after the winter feast, and leave Chang'an as soon as possible to return to Qingzhou.
Just as they were talking, the people who rushed to the banquet had all arrived, and Su Jin saw Du Qian in the seat, and the two looked at each other and smiled and each opened their faces.
The empress dowager's face improved slightly in the past few days, and her gaze was not as sharp as before, Su Jin sat opposite her on the emperor's side, and the scene seemed to be extremely harmonious.
The emperor said that he wanted to set her up as the latter, and finally gave up because the empress dowager was forced to die, Su Jin made that promise in front of everyone, the water was difficult to harvest, and the emperor had no choice, but she took the initiative to make such a big concession in order not to separate the emperor and the empress dowager's mother and son, and even more so that those who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to impeach her had nothing to say.
To this day, she doesn't care whether the so-called position is high or low, didn't Yan Manyi accompany him for ten years and finally break the Yellow Spring?
Su Jin knew his own weight, did not dare to be delusional, and did not want to worry about this so-called position.
This winter banquet is really a family banquet, Du Qian as the princess of Deyang naturally can also attend, she is still quite calm, did not ask the emperor in public why he did not let Qi Lan also attend, but Su Jin can see the anxiety in her eyes, her husband Jun's life and death are still unknown, she is anxious and anxious.
Su Jin drank a few glasses of wine and felt that his chest was very stuffy, squeezing the wine glass and looking at the reflection in the cup, his brain was still confused, and he looked back at the apricot beads before he calmed down.
The empress dowager on the other side took a sip of wine calmly, and said to the concubines below that she should serve the emperor wholeheartedly, showing her style as the empress dowager, and when everyone turned their heads to talk and laugh with the people next to her, she made a look that had been thinking for a long time, and told the emperor about the lady Concubine Yu Yuanyuan, who had been imprisoned in the cold palace for more than a year.
"Yuanyuan has been pampered since childhood, and it is inevitable that she will be reckless in doing things, but now that Concubine Xian's child has been born safely and will be one year old in a few days, can His Majesty the Emperor also consider sparing her this time?" Not to mention the generosity of the concubines, not counting this matter. ”
"Lady Shufei's heart is vicious, and if she hadn't arrived in time that day, she was afraid that Concubine Xian's mother and son would all die at her hands." Such a poisonous woman will only harm others when she is released, and considering that your mother loves her, you did not execute her, so you let her stay there and reflect on herself. ”
After he finished speaking, he turned his head to see Su Jin's expression and asked her if she was uncomfortable, as soon as she looked up, she saw that the empress's look had changed greatly, and she smiled slightly and said that there was nothing wrong, and there was very little speech all night.
