Queen's scheming

Chapter 370
"These Yueliang people are different from us Dali people. What we pay attention to is warm fire and slow cooking. They really say what they say. Yu Ji has only told them about the kung fu for a few days, and they move so fast!" Shen Qingyi stroked the hairpin on her head, and deliberately chose a red agate hairpin with lotus tassels, and put it on the ponytail, with a bit of laziness and charm.

Jiang Nanny smiled and said: "That also depends on Su Nanny's efforts. Now that Su Zhai is doing things more and more smoothly, if it wasn't for the soldier who captured Yue Liang, it would not have been so easy."

Shen Qingyi said with some distress: "Madam Su is really willing to give up, a piece of gold mud is so expensive, if it is my palace, it really can't do it."

"I don't want the child to be caught by the wolf. Besides, Madam Su told me that because this material is only one piece, it just burnt out a few holes. If a good embroiderer embroiders patterns on it, it will still be the same." It can be sold at a good price, who made this unique in Su Zhai? It is said that the price of this piece of material has already reached tens of thousands of taels." The matter went smoothly, and Mother Jiang was in an extremely good mood. In front of Shen Qingyi, smiling.

"Madam Su seems to be in a good mood recently. She must have met some happy event. Otherwise, if she lost such a piece of material, she might have a gloomy face for several days. Now that she is in a good mood, she is still in the mood to play tricks like this." Shen Qingyi just mentioned it casually, but Mother Jiang understood the meaning and hurriedly covered it up.

"At the beginning, the rumor that Princess Linglong's horoscope was to help Long Feitian was widely spread. Now that Princess Linglong's horoscope is fake, there is so much excitement. The story is spread in the streets and alleys of the capital, and teahouses have already compiled it into books. Having said that, it may be difficult for Princess Linglong to enter the palace now, an ordinary family would not want a woman who is lying, let alone a royal family!" Mother Jiang joked.

Yuji also felt very happy at the side. These soldiers of Yueliang still abandoned Princess Linglong. It is better for Linglong to have something to do alone than to be buried with all of Yueliang. They will naturally know how to choose. Now those Yueliang people To testify, Princess Linglong's horoscope was wrong, but within two days, the woman Wen who delivered Linglong's baby, and her relatives came out. It was also said that Princess Linglong had calculated her horoscope in Yueliang, saying it was Ke The father beats the mother, and the six relatives don't recognize her, so Princess Linglong hasn't seen anyone since she was 14 years old, and she hasn't been engaged.

Compared with what Linglong said about helping Long Feitian, this rhetoric is more convincing to the people of Dali. After all, the fate of the Yueliang Kingdom lies there. There are few people in the house, and the nature of the people in the palace to worship the high and trample on the low can be seen at a glance.

Yuji served Shen Qingyi wearing a pea green outer dress, and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's time to see Princess Linglong too! I have ignored it these days, if I don't beat it at this time, Princess Linglong will be fine again." I went to look for that person in Zhaoyang Palace, looking for a chance to stand up, I'm afraid I'm going to be in trouble again!"

Shen Qingyi was silent for a moment. If she hadn't come to this situation, Shen Qingyi really didn't want to embarrass this little girl Linglong, but she is already fourteen now, and she still behaves like this willfully, never caring what other people think. Well, letting her mess around is really hurting her!
"Let Linglong pay her respects and come to Ningsu Palace!" Shen Qingyi sighed.

Because the person who was selected for the screen was either Shen Qingyi or Mrs. Jinghui, or Tang Xiurong, plus two Princess Yuexuan and Princess Linglong who were not the emperor's concubines, this screen selection in the harem was a good story of the emperor's stay. After all, it still didn't spread, and the mood of the crowd who wanted to cheer before it also plummeted. However, the greeting ceremony was very quiet, almost like a cup of tea, and these people dispersed.

When Shen Qingyi returned to the Nuan Pavilion, Yu Ji reported back and forth that Princess Linglong had been waiting for a stick of incense, so she had heard the wind and knew that her previous plan had failed, so she became cautious in her actions stand up.

In the Nuan Pavilion, Shen Qingyi took off the bird-chaofeng outer dress she was wearing, and put on a homely lilac-colored slanted jacket and a pea-green skirt with fine pleats, and then ordered someone to call Princess Linglong in. .

Shen Qing Yiyuan thought, as long as Linglong has a little bit of remorse, this matter will be fine, how can a girl in the [-]th or [-]th year not make mistakes, it is the age of first love, it is understandable to have a heroic complex, Li Tianyou rushed all the way from Dali to Yueliang to rescue her. It is understandable that she lost her eyes because of the feeling of gratitude and admiration for a while.

But when Linglong walked into the warm pavilion, Shen Qingyi wished she could slap herself twice. What was wrong with her, she felt that Linglong would change from her temperament of not giving up even if she bumped into the south wall, to become submissive.

It is a red skirt with a vertical skirt, and the adjacent cuffs are rolled with pale pink and pearl-colored piping. It is embroidered with intricate and lively peony flowers. Because Princess Dingyi passed away not long ago, Linglong has been wearing plain clothes in the palace. This one actually dressed up like this, what else could it be for, it wasn't because Shen Qingyi had said before that Li Tianyou liked her wearing bright red clothes, Linglong naturally wanted to do what she liked.

The smile on Shen Qingyi's face suddenly collapsed, and Linglong also felt it, even when paying respects, she became more and more cautious, for fear that Shen Qingyi's next sentence would be a decree to marry her to others.

Shen Qingyi was entangled tightly. On the one hand, she lamented Linglong's obsession, and on the other hand, she pitied her for leaving her under the fence and being cautious, but for Linglong's sake, she still said with a straight face: "You are still in the period of filial piety, although it is not unusual to observe filial piety in the palace. People are so strict, but you shouldn't wear red clothes, let the censor in front know, how do you criticize you? You are at the age of negotiating marriage, if you are not filial to your own mother and queen, what kind of family is there? Madame dares to marry you back as a daughter-in-law!"

"Then don't get married." The words in Linglong's heart were stuck in her throat, and she didn't dare to say it out loud, for fear of offending Shen Qingyi, she replied in a low voice: "Linglong is still young, so I don't want to think about marriage for now. Besides, just like what the Empress said, not long after her mother passed away, it is really unfilial for Linglong to talk about marriage now!"

When Shen Qingyi heard the words "Empress Empress", her heart turned cold, and now Linglong refused to even say "Sister-in-law of the Emperor"!

Shen Qingyi said calmly: "Sit down first, I have nothing else to do when I am looking for you, it's just gossip."

Naturally, Linglong wouldn't be so stupid as to seriously think that Shen Qingyi was chatting with her, so she respectfully sat in a corner on the armchair beside her.

Seeing this, Shen Qingyi didn't say anything, but in the bottom of her heart she was not at ease, Linglong was finally estranged from her.

"I heard a joke told by someone else yesterday. I thought it was very funny. Let me tell you." Shen Qingyi had a smile on her face, and she only hoped that Linglong could learn something from this story. Sensible, then no wonder she.

Jiang Momo watched from the side and shook her head. If Princess Linglong is too obsessed with the emperor, why not her own mother for Princess Linglong?It's the queen's own sister, who probably hasn't been persuaded like this, but Princess Linglong refuses to accept her love!

"Empress, please tell me, Linglong, listen." Linglong lowered her eyebrows and looked down, she only hoped that Shen Qingyi would let her go by her cuteness, and let her stay in the palace, by Brother Tianyou's side!
Shen Qingyi really didn't want to see Linglong's aggrieved appearance, she got up and pretended to look at a pot of wintersweet on the high table, and said softly: "It is said that there was a little rabbit who went fishing, and he fished for a whole day on the first day. I didn't catch even a small shrimp, the little rabbit was a little unhappy, and went fishing with all her strength the next day, but still didn't catch anything, the little white rabbit felt wronged, obviously she worked so hard, but the fish But refused to take the bait."

Linglong listened absent-mindedly, but when she heard this, she probably knew that Shen Qingyi was comparing herself to the little white rabbit, and Li Tianyou was the fish, so she couldn't help being interested, and wanted to know why Li Tianyou and Shen Qingyi were He refused to let her into the palace, and asked in a low voice: "What about the third day? If the little white rabbit keeps going fishing every day, one day it will be able to catch it!"

Shen Qingyi turned her back to Linglong, grateful for Linglong's deep obsession, and smiled lightly: "On the third day, the little white rabbit sat by the pond and wanted to put the bait into the lake, but a carp jumped out of the lake. shouted 'If you go fishing with carrots tomorrow, we'll drag you into the lake and drown you!'"

Linglong opened her mouth wide and did not speak for a long while.

Shen Qingyi still turned her back to her, wanting to give Linglong some dignity and prevent herself from seeing her current appearance, she lightly smiled and said, "Linglong, do you think this story is funny? The little white rabbit used his favorite carrot , Forced it to Yuer, and felt that she gave her sincerity, but didn't get anything in return. Such a little rabbit is really cute! Doesn't she know that even if she donated all her carrots, Yuer would not It will take the bait, fish don’t eat carrots at all!”

Linglong stood there blankly, could it be that brother Tianyou would never like her?

Linglong refused to believe it, she knelt down in front of Shen Qingyi with a "plop", tugged at her pea-green skirt, tears rolled down and said: "Empress Empress, Linglong doesn't ask for anything, as long as she can be by Brother Tianyou's side, she can be with you every day." It's enough to have a good look at the day, I beg the empress to give Linglong a way out!"

"The way to live?" Shen Qingyi glared at Linglong, never expecting her to say such a thing, she couldn't hold back her anger for a while, and said: "I'm telling you this, is it to force you again?" There is no way to survive? Why don’t you think about it yourself, which one is the way to survive, and which one is the way to die? You hit the south wall, your head was bloody, and you still refused to turn back. What are you going to do! "
