The emperor's scheming: alluring the world

Chapter 291

"Who is suitable for this ceremony? I think the emperor already has a candidate in his heart, and I need to recommend it. I just saw that the emperor had no plans to perform the ceremony for many days, so I entered the palace to propose to the emperor." Wake up." Li Sister-in-law smiled, and what she said was quite meaningful.

Hearing this, Li Yi couldn't help but look at Li Sister-in-law more, but seeing her looking at him frankly again, a strange thought arose in his heart.

"Thank you for your reminder. I will let the queen prepare the ceremony as soon as possible." Li Yi put away the weirdness in his heart and gave Li Sister-in-law a definite answer, but he didn't realize that when facing Li Sister-in-law, he claimed to be from me. I.

"It's good for the emperor to remember this. My sister-in-law can't stay in the palace for a long time, so I will leave the palace." Smiling, Li sister-in-law supported Yunyu's hand and walked out of the imperial study room. To be able to have a clear conscience, it turns out that it is not the case. The imperial study in the imperial palace was closed after Li Yi ascended the throne. The imperial study he is using now was rebuilt from a palace.

After leaving the imperial study room, Li Meizhen walked slowly with Yunyu and Qing'er. When they reached the imperial garden, they saw a beautiful woman in a palace costume coming from the opposite side, surrounded by a group of pink-clothed maids. When she walked up to Li Meiying, she looked at Li Meiying arrogantly and said: "Who are you? You don't look like a palace maid, let alone a concubine in the palace. Why don't you kneel down and salute when you see me?"

Li Meizhen knew this person, she was the second prince's biological mother Ge side concubine, never thought that after leaving the ancient country for so many years, this woman was as beautiful and young as she was a few years ago, the years seemed to have left no trace on her face, Although the beauty is beautiful, it's a pity that the sternness between her eyebrows is too strong, giving people a sense of bitterness, no wonder Li Yi doesn't like it.

Li Meiying is wearing a veil, and other people can't see her facial features clearly. Seeing Li Meiying's extremely beautiful peach blossom eyes staring at her coldly, Concubine Ge felt displeased, so she said in a more serious tone: "You are the one." For those of the palace, it’s fine if you don’t kneel down and salute when you see me, and you don’t even answer my questions, are you going to die?”

After hearing this sentence, Li Sister-in-law slowly removed her veil, looked at Concubine Ge with a half-smile and said: "Concubine Ge has a lot of affairs, I don't remember that this princess is nothing special, let this princess tell Concubine Ge If you kneel down and salute, you have to be able to bear it, the queen tolerated three points when she saw this princess, but side concubine Ge has a much stronger temper than the queen."

Li Sister and Empress Xue Ying look exactly the same, but their temperaments are different. Concubine Ge has been Li Yi's concubine for many years. In the early years when Li Yi was King Zhongyi, she would always enter the palace to attend every banquet in the palace. , Empress Xueying can be described as familiar. Seeing the familiar face that has disappeared for many years, Concubine Ge's face changed slightly. Compared with Queen Xueying's noble and gentle temperament, Li Meiying's temperament is cold, There was a kind of seductive charm in the coldness, and what surprised Concubine Ge even more was that there was a bottomless mystery about Li Sister-in-law, but the little girl of sixteen or seventeen could hide it so deeply. , really surprised Concubine Ge.

It took a long time for Concubine Ge to find her own voice: "It turned out to be Princess Yao Huang. Right now Princess Cai was wearing a veil and dressed neatly. I thought it was the young lady from the concubine's natal family who came to visit the palace. Princess Yaohuang doesn't care about it."

Li Meiying heard the words, smiled slightly, and said indifferently: "Those who don't know are not guilty. My face is covered with white gauze, and Concubine Ge can't see my face clearly. It is human nature to misunderstand me. Now it's easy to talk about it." Can."

Seeing Li Sister-in-law so talkative, Concubine Ge not only did not breathe a sigh of relief, but the nerves in her whole body became more and more tense, but she did not show any anxiety on her face: "I heard that the princess escorted Queen Ruan's coffin back to the country. Why did you enter the palace today!"

The smile on her face faded, and Li Meizhen sighed faintly: "I heard that the princess had a miscarriage. I went to the palace to visit the emperor's uncle, and reminded the emperor to remember to perform a ritual ceremony for the child who died young."

Hearing the words, Concubine Ge's eyes flashed a strange color, but she said calmly: "The princess has a heart, but this is strange to say, since she learned that the crown princess is pregnant, the queen sister will tell you every day Arrange for the imperial physician to ask for the peace pulse of the princess, and all kinds of anti-fetal medicine and soups to replenish the body are sent to the East Palace without leaving a day, how can you say that a miscarriage is a miscarriage!"

Hearing this, Li Meiying said with a helpless expression: "I have to ask God about this, maybe the Crown Princess and the child in her womb have no mother-child relationship."

When Concubine Ge heard the words, she naturally didn't believe Li Sister's words, and at the same time, she was even more certain that the child in the crown prince's belly was suspicious of a miscarriage.

Li Sister took in all the emotions in Concubine Ge's eyes, but her expression was always indifferent, and she just changed the subject suddenly: "But it's strange, several cousins ​​have been concubines for several years, why don't they have any children under their knees?" Woolen cloth!"

It is said that the speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. Although Li Meiying's words were intentional, in the eyes of Concubine Ge, she said them unintentionally. Her words made Concubine Ge think of a serious problem, that is, the issue of heirs. If her son can have a son before Li Dingkang, he will have a succession of incense, and then he will unite with the ministers to put pressure on the king. The crown prince's position will definitely not be guaranteed.

With an idea in mind, Concubine Ge swept away her gloomy mood, smiled and said to Li Sister-in-law: "As the princess said, maybe the fate has not come, and when the fate comes, the child will naturally be born."

"What Concubine Ge said is that I've been in the palace for a while, and I have to go back to the palace, so I won't chat with Concubine Ge, and I'm leaving!" Putting on the veil again, Li Sister-in-law said softly.

Concubine Ge was very excited by her thoughts, and naturally she was not in the mood to chat with Li Sister-in-law, so she hurriedly responded and gave way to her.

Li Sister-in-law smiled at Concubine Ge, and left with Yunyu and Qing'er. The speed passed to Feng Lindian.

After leaving the palace and sitting in the carriage, Yunyu finally couldn't help but said: "Princess, it's been several days since Prince Ming's secret letter came into Li Yi's hands, and they haven't moved at all. Should we take the initiative to attack and find out the truth."

Li Meiying heard the words, but she shook her head indifferently and said: "I have all experts around me, Prince Ming knows this, and will naturally tell Li Yi truthfully, with Li Yi's shrewdness, if he is not fully sure In the past, he didn't know how to deal with things. Besides, I'm in Beijing now, and I won't leave until my father and mother enter the imperial mausoleum. He has enough time to think of a way. If we take the initiative to attack, it will only change the situation. Passive, so you can't act rashly now, understand?"
