The king's fierce concubine: women don't be arrogant

Chapter 140 Three: Exploration

Rong Zixuan didn't know for a while whether the queen mother meant something or just said it casually, she felt very uncomfortable, and argued: "It's not a joke to be superior or inferior, queen mother, don't be fooled by others casually, they Xia Liangguo There have never been any rules, and if you dare to use such a rebellious word as a game, you have to teach the bad guys."

Meng Yiqing secretly kicked Mu Lan across the bottom of the table, knowing that the queen had many rules and would cause trouble for her.But on the face, she still smiled and said: "My family is playing, why bother so much? It's just for fun. This is just like men playing chess, it's just a battle between generals. Besides, it's not you who are fighting queens , why are you nervous, if you want to be a queen, you have to get this card."

While talking, Meng Yiqing had already started to shuffle the cards, and Qing Wu had just learned it, so she kindly explained the rules and methods of the game to the queen.

Rong Zixuan had no choice but to draw cards along with her. It was probably because of her bad luck that she became the "Queen" in the first hand.However, her heart wasn't here at all, while absently grabbing the cards, she casually chatted: "Mother, what are your plans for this year's birthday?"

Meng Yiqing played a good hand and was in a good mood, so she responded casually: "Once a woman gets older, the birthday is what she fears the most, just look at Zhang Luo." Especially like her, who suddenly changed from young to middle-aged Aunt, how can you be in the mood to celebrate.

Rong Zixuan smiled flatteringly and said: "The queen mother looks very young, and this birthday is naturally for those civil and military officials, princes and princes to see your splendor. I remember three years ago on your birthday, Just in time for the peach blossoms to be in full bloom, there was a feast in the imperial garden, and your majesty prepared a special birthday gift for you, do you remember?"

"Are you talking about the plate of hundred flower cakes that your majesty personally made for Ai's family?" Meng Yiqing searched the memories in her mind, a look of color appeared on her face, and said: "Your Majesty values ​​filial piety, every year Ai's On birthdays, he would spend all his time trying to make Aijia happy, but it was the only time he cooked food himself that year."

Rong Zixuan has been observing the Empress Dowager's expression secretly. The expression seems to be much younger than in previous years, and there is an indescribable charm between her eyebrows and eyes. It is completely different from the solemn queen mother.

However, her answer was not bad at all, and even the pride of being a mother when she mentioned Jun Shanglai was so real.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Before coming here, she even had the whimsical thought that the current queen mother is a fake. Now it seems that this possibility should not be great.

However, for the sake of caution, she said again: "You have suffered a lot for the emperor in the early years, and the emperor should respect you. Speaking of which, do your old wounds still hurt now? The concubine remembers that every time the weather changes , you always say that the wound hurts, turn around and ask my concubine to rub it with medicine and wine for you."

Her deliberate flattery today finally aroused Meng Yiqing's surprise. Seeing her looking at him from time to time, Meng Yiqing's heart was slightly shocked, and then she smiled as if it happened, and said: "You are talking about the knife wound on the back Is it strange to say that the wound has been healed for so many years, and there is only a little scar left, but it still can't get rid of this painful old problem. It's hard for you to remember it, and let the cotton instrument in front of you come to me later Just rub it. You are so busy, don't worry about it."

Although I don't know why she doubted him, in short, let her see it at ease.

"Queen, if you don't play any cards, you will lose." Mu Lan tapped on the table, reminding at the right time.

Rong Zixuan looked back, and saw that the three of them had few cards left, but she was still holding a handful of them.

"You have to pay attention when playing cards." Meng Yiqing smiled and threw down the last card in her hand, and announced, "Queen, it's your turn to post the note."

The queen mother has spoken, and Rong Zixuan is not easy to play tricks on, but she is a dignified queen, how often has she done such an outrageous thing, and immediately grabbed a note and stuck it on her forehead, her face turned red for a while.

Seeing this, Mu Lan couldn't help but smirked inwardly, but she said, "The empress is a beginner, why don't you ask Xifeng to give you a staff advisor? His poker skills are not bad."

Naturally, she also saw that the queen's visit today was not kind, so she didn't give her a chance to be distracted.

Rong Zixuan had a prejudice against Xifeng, how could she believe him?What's more, it was Mu Lan who spoke, feeling even more ghostly, and immediately said calmly: "No need, I will come by myself."

But the facts have proved that novices can easily play the game of Fighting the Landlords badly, especially when the two veterans are secretly joining forces, although Qing Wu is neutral, she is still a beginner.So, after playing all afternoon, Rong Zixuan posted the most notes on her face.

Rong Zixuan is not stupid, seeing the situation is unfavorable, she was about to find an excuse to escape, when she heard a familiar voice behind her, saying: "There are quite a lot of people today, what are you doing?"

It's Your Majesty!Rong Zixuan's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly turned around to salute.Because Mu Lan and Qing Wu were sitting facing the door, they actually saw him a step earlier, so they also got up and bowed to him. [

"Zixuan?" Dong Lingjue looked at the face covered with notes in front of him in surprise, and was stunned for a second, then found that the other three were the same, but they were not as exciting as Rong Zixuan's face, and the corners of his lips could not help but twitch With a slight smile, he turned to Meng Yiqing and said, "It turns out that Queen Mother's place is so lively, it seems that it's a bit of a coincidence that I came here."

Meng Yiqing smiled and tore off the note on her face, and said: "What is your Majesty saying, you can have such filial piety to visit Ai's family, it's too late for Ai's family to be happy." As she spoke, she sighed: "Today, I will talk to these younger generations. After playing a few hands of cards, Aijia felt as if he had become ten years younger all of a sudden, you guys are all so caring, Aijia is very pleased."

/>

These words not only reasonably explained everyone's disrespect, so as not to make people suspicious, but also gave the three of them a lot of face.Rong Zixuan was still annoyed at being seen by her ugliness in her heart, but now she is rounded up, wiped the note on her face, with a bit of coquettish meaning: "The queen mother is better than us juniors. It's much stronger, the courtiers and concubines don't know how many times they have lost in your hands, but the teacher saw a joke."

"You're so busy these days, and you still have time to spend time with your mother. It's really kind." Dong Ling absolutely appreciated her dedication, "You're also just recovering from a serious illness, so you need to rest more."

Hearing these words, Rong Zixuan was very moved, a bright smile appeared on Yan Hong's face, and she said: "It is the blessing of my concubine to be filial in front of my mother."

Dong Ling smiled and nodded, his eyes turned and fell on Mu Lan, his brows wrinkled involuntarily, and said, "Concubine De, I haven't seen you for a few days, why is your complexion still so bad?"

Is it so obvious?Mu Lan couldn't help touching her face, "Probably because it's too cold and I don't have much appetite."

Now this body seems to be particularly afraid of the cold. The weather is getting colder every day these days. Although she has tried to exercise as much as possible, she is still anorexic and lethargic, almost hibernating.

Seeing Dong Lingjue's attention turned to Mu Lan so quickly, Rong Zixuan felt sour in her heart, but she still smiled and said, "Sister Defei probably hasn't adapted to our climate in Western Chu, right? You are weak and weak. , but you have to pay more attention, I will ask the storehouse to allocate more silver carbon to Jinfu Palace later, so you can stay indoors if you have nothing to do, and don’t suffer from the cold anymore.”
