The imperial concubine favors the crown of the harem

When the matter reached Concubine Yi's ears, it was exactly as Concubine Lin expected.

Yifei was furious on the spot.

"She doesn't know what will happen to Prince Zhan's mansion? She doesn't know what will happen to Lin Xiang's mansion? At this time, it would be nice for this palace to let someone continue to protect the peace of her imperial concubine, and she still wants to be the queen? Shouldn't she You will think that after your death, you can still be crowned as the head of the harem like Queen Xu!"

It's just a dream!

Ruyi and Ruhuan waited on the side, they were very careful.

Instead, Ruan Ming came forward and reminded in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry, but this servant thinks it's tricky."

"Oh?"

Concubine Yi frowned and looked at Ruan Ming.

His mind has always been meticulous and alert, and during these years in the palace, he spent most of the time safely relying on his reminders.

Therefore, Concubine Yi believed his words very much.

"How to say?"

"Judging from the previous fights between Concubine Lin Gui and the empress, she is not a fool. Why did she deliberately provoke you when she didn't know how long she would live? You must know that you are now in charge of the affairs of the harem. It's not impossible for you to cut off her life if you don't notice it in your hand. Therefore, there must be a deep meaning behind her doing so."

"Deep meaning?"

Concubine Yi thought about it for a while, her eyes were separated from the sullenness just now, and now she was somewhat serious.

"Could it be that you feel that you won't live long, and you need to ask Gu?"

After all, she also gave birth to Princess Mingruo.

But this idea is not right.

Isn't it good for Princess Mingruo to be raised in the Empress Dowager's Palace?

If they were sent to Yuxiu Palace, they might not have a good life.

Also, why does Lin Guifei think she can accept Princess Mingruo?
A series of questions popped out of her mind.

Instead, Ruan Ming reminded him.

"Your Majesty, don't forget that there are no permanent friends in the harem, and naturally there are no permanent enemies. Compared with the one in Yihua Palace, the noble concubine believes in you more, and also in Lord Hou and our Liu family. ability."

Hearing this, Concubine Yi nodded slightly.

indeed.

There is no doubt about this.

She is also very clear about the twists and turns in Lin Xiangfu.

It's like a family with a group of wives and concubines, and the children of the first-born and the children of the concubine are always at odds.

Therefore, the same is true for the children of the first wife and the second wife.

Even deeper hatred.

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he said to Ruan Ming.

"You go to the Linzhi Palace and bring some precious medicinal materials to send, and listen to this palace, what kind of medicine is sold in Concubine Lin's gourd!"

"Yes, the slave understands."

Afterwards, Ruan Ming left Yuxiu Palace to arrange the matter.

It's been a month and a half and no reply.

Concubine Lin Gui thought that nothing had disappeared.

At noon this day, I heard that Ruan Ming had received an order from Concubine Yi, saying that the Dragon Boat Festival was approaching, and he wanted to send some festive food to the palaces.

But now there are not many concubines in the palace, so in order to show the kindness of the concubine, Ruan Ming personally brought someone to send it to her.

The first place to go here is naturally Linzhi Palace.

When Lin Guifei heard the news of Ruan Ming's arrival, the corners of her mouth rose.

After coughing twice, she asked Qin Liu next to her to help her up.

Going to the front of the Linghua bronze mirror, I simply put on some makeup.

After making himself look less sick, he changed his clothes, sat on the throne in the main hall, and received Ruan Ming.

"Slave Ruan Ming pays respects to the imperial concubine. This is specially sent by Yifei from the slave. Apart from the things that will be used for the Dragon Boat Festival, these are all good things to replenish qi and blood. Please accept it with a smile."

"Well, Eunuch Ruan is being polite, Qinliu, accept it."

"Yes."

From this sentence, Ruan Ming knew that he had guessed right.

Otherwise, in the past, how could it be possible for Concubine Lin Gui to speak "kindly" to the palace people of Yuxiu Palace?
In the meantime, Qinliu asked someone to bring something, and then took him away.

So in the entire main hall, only Concubine Lin Gui and Ruan Ming were left.

Concubine Lin Gui kept holding her breath at this moment, for fear of venting in front of Ruan Ming.

But she didn't have much time, if she delayed any longer, she might not be able to hold on anymore.

So, speak ahead of time.

"Since Concubine Yi sent you here, she must have understood what I mean."

"Forgive me for being stupid, but I really don't know what the noble concubine and empress mean. It's just that the concubine Yi ordered the slaves to send some things to the palaces according to the palace rules."

Concubine Lin Gui was taken aback for a moment, but soon understood.

There was a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

"You don't speak dark words in front of Ming people, so why bother Eunuch Ruan?"

"Your Majesty is really worrying too much. This servant is stupid and stupid. I really don't understand what you mean. Please advise me."

Ruan Ming wouldn't be in a hurry to say something.

After all, it was Concubine Lin Guifei who surrendered to them, so it is better for Concubine Lin Guifei to say these things herself.

She probably understood what Ruan Ming meant, so she struggled a bit, but Concubine Lin Gui was still defeated.

After all, the current her has nothing to contend with Concubine Yi.

So, even with that tone, it collapsed.

After coughing and coughing twice, he looked at Ruan Ming, with some darkness in his eyes.

Then he said earnestly.

"Since that's the case, then I'll be blunt. I don't know what Concubine Yi thinks about the third prince's choice to accompany her to read?"

Seeing Concubine Lin Gui opened her mouth, Ruan Ming relaxed a bit.

"This matter will probably be decided by the emperor in the end, so when the empress asks the servant, the servant can only say that he is not very clear."

"It doesn't matter if you don't know clearly. The important thing is whether the final candidate is what Concubine Yi and the Liu family want. Although the Marquis of Northwest has power and power, it is not in Shengjing City after all. Therefore, some intertwined relationships, I am afraid that someone still needs to point them out. .”

"Your Majesty said so."

"I don't want to play tricks with you either, so let's just talk about it."

"Zeng Konghou, the second son of Bachelor Zeng in the cabinet, is a very good candidate, but Bachelor Zeng is very cautious. I am afraid that his son may not be happy to be selected as a companion this time. Therefore, this Palace can contribute to the flames. , do the Third Prince a favor."

"It's just that I also have plans. After the matter is settled, Ming Ruo must marry into the Zeng family."

Sure enough, as Ruan Ming expected, Concubine Lin was hiding something behind her.

Among other things, this Bachelor Zeng was originally a student of Lin Xiangye.

Therefore, if you follow Concubine Lin's path, I'm afraid this matter may really come true!
And Lin Guifei's guess was indeed good, the third prince they wanted to accompany him was indeed Zeng Konghou.

It's just that he still has to hide some of the words.

After all, they have cards to cover, but Concubine Lin Gui does not.

So he smiled and said.
