Houmen's step-wife

367 Chapter 4: Here Comes the Court of Death ([-])
The implication of the words is that Mrs. Chu is nothing more than mediocre, even worse than Concubine Zhen.

Mrs. Wu Qingbo couldn't help but said in surprise: "Is this true?"

Immediately, he shook his head and said, "No, no, it shouldn't be like this. Then Madam Chu, I feel that she is very different from other people." However, what is different, I can't say much, I always feel that she speaks , Doing things is different from others.

"Sister Yi, I know you are arrogant, but you must not underestimate her." Mrs. Wu Qingbo warned, "It is definitely not easy for her to be favored for such a long time. Besides, this Yuyingtang and this auction The restaurant was all her idea."

Lu Jingyi said with some displeasure: "Mother, why are you talking so much about her? The nursery hall is obviously the Queen's idea. As for the auction house, it's just her random idea, and it's just a mistake. It's not like what you said So powerful? In my opinion, she can only play tricks like this."

She really didn't understand, how could she be favored?
She said so in her mouth, but she was jealous and envious in her heart. If she came up with these things, why wouldn't His Majesty treat her differently?

Mrs. Wu Qingbo knows that her daughter, although she looks very calm and indifferent, as if she doesn't care about anything, but in fact, she thinks highly of herself, she must do the best in everything, and she can't allow others to surpass herself, and she does have pride It's just that, sometimes, it's too proud.

Some helplessly said: "Sister Yi, the meaning of what I said is that I want you to learn from her and come up with a few new ideas. If it can benefit the people of the world, that would be even better."

But Lu Jingyi has learned all kinds of skills and how to please men since she was a child. She only reads poems and songs, never reads various history books and miscellaneous books, let alone care about people's livelihood. It is simply embarrassing for her to come up with ideas.

Hearing Mrs. Wu Qingbo's words, I couldn't help but look a little ugly, and said: "But these good ideas have already been preempted by Mrs. Chu and the empress, what can I do?"

"That's why I asked you to think of another one." Mrs. Wu Qingbo said.

Lu Jingyi said a little irritably: "Then let me try! If mother has any ideas, please tell me."

Mrs. Wu Qingbo choked when she heard it. If she had a new idea, she would have told her a long time ago. Why wait until now?

The two suddenly looked at each other speechlessly and fell into silence.

Mrs. Wu Qingbo sat for a while, then left.

When she went to kowtow to the Empress Empress, Empress Ning left her to talk, and even asked her to give her a seat.

"Mrs. Ye, I really want to help Lu Cairen very much, but you have also seen that His Majesty only favors Mrs. Chu. In the eyes of His Majesty, I am afraid that the queen of this palace is not as good as her little finger, so , is also powerless." Queen Ning said.

Mrs. Wu Qingbo smiled respectfully: "How can I not know the empress's kindness? I am really grateful to my empress."

Empress Ning sighed: "It's not that this palace has never persuaded Mrs. Chu not to keep occupying the emperor. Unfortunately, there is a misunderstanding between her and this palace, and there is nothing I can do if I don't listen to my words. However, if If Mrs. Ye makes a move, there may be a turning point."

Having said that, she stopped and took a sip of her tea.

Mrs. Wu Qingbo asked: "What do you mean by your mother's words?"

Empress Ning chuckled and said: "What I mean is that Mrs. Ye might as well put some thought into Mrs. Chu. A word from Mrs. Chu is more effective than all of us combined. As long as she is willing to let go, everything will be fine." done."

Mrs. Wu Qingbo laughed awkwardly: "Your Majesty is joking, Mrs. Chu doesn't even buy your Majesty's face, so why would she still listen to my concubine's persuasion?"

"That's why I asked you to find a way." Empress Ning put down the teacup, pressed the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, and said lightly, "Whether it's to understand it with affection, move it with reason, or lure it with profit, As long as Mrs. Chu can speak a good word for Lu Cairen in front of His Majesty, Lu Cairen will definitely be able to regain his favor."

"Your Majesty, this..." Mrs. Wu Qingbo felt that it was very unreliable, but on second thought, maybe she could find a way to try it. Anyway, no matter whether it is feasible or not, there will be no loss. What if it succeeds?That can make a lot of money.What's more, human beings have weaknesses, and Mrs. Chu is no exception.Although this matter seems unlikely, there is room for manipulation.

Empress Ning said with a smile: "This palace is just a proposal. Anyway, I already have a prince, so it doesn't matter whether I get favored or not. No one can threaten my position. This palace is indeed only for Lu Cairen, and Gong For the sake of all the sisters here."

"What the empress said is true, so the concubine keeps saying that the empress is the first virtuous queen of our Daqian Dynasty, and she has always admired her in her heart. It's just that this matter is unusual, and the concubine still needs to think about it." Mrs. Wu Qingbo said.

"Naturally." Empress Ning nodded and smiled.

After Mrs. Wu Qingbo left, Nanny Gao said, "Ma'am, will Mrs. Wu Qingbo agree?"

"She will definitely do it. She is still hesitating now. After a few days, she will definitely be anxious when she sees that His Majesty still does not meet Lu Cairen." Queen Ning said firmly.

Uncle Wuqing's mansion was so high-profile some time ago, if Lu Cairen is still not favored, the newly established personal connections may be disbanded at once, and it will also make the Uncle Wuqing's mansion lose face and be ridiculed by others. Talented people are not favored, the Wuqing uncle's mansion must be more anxious than anyone else.

So, after she pointed a way for them, they certainly couldn't sit still.

The plan for a year lies in spring, and after mid-spring, Emperor Xiande became busy. He wanted to lead all his officials to the Xiannong Altar, to worship the God of Xiannong, and to personally plow the one-acre three-point land in front of the plowing platform, plowing back and forth. At the same time, in February of this year, there will be Chun Wei, as well as the issuance of various new policies, etc. However, no matter how busy Emperor Xiande is, he will come every two or three days, even sometimes just to see Su Wan just go.

Su Wan was very distressed, and told him not to worry about himself, and wait until he was done with work.

On this day, Mrs. Yu, the wife of the Marquis of Lingbi, brought Tang Lingyu and Tang Huiyu to visit.

Su Wan was a little surprised, because Mrs. Yu never brought them here.However, Su Wan didn't care too much, since she came, she naturally entertained her well.

Su Wan received them in the flower hall, and had them serve tea and fruits.

The two Tang Huiyu sisters looked at this magnificent place, showing the royal atmosphere everywhere, and they all expressed admiration and admiration, but Tang Huiyu hid it very well, while Tang Lingyu did not hide it.

After Su Wan moved in, this place was gradually filled with many things, all of which were rare items from the palace, not to mention, Emperor Xiande often lived here, so the furnishings and layout here were naturally according to his preferences.
