Chapter 25
As soon as this remark came out, Concubine Zhao Li and her minions all looked sideways. They wondered when the queen had more female officials who could speak the truth. The three of them wanted to make the queen furious, and they accused the queen of being immoral , can't educate the six palaces, and then release the rumors to the powerful ministers in the court. At that time, the public opinion will be together, and the unscrupulous words of the middle palace will spread outside the palace, which will greatly benefit the matter of making Prince Ying the crown prince.

The key point of this plan is whether it can make the queen angry and disrespectful. She is born in a general family, does not know poetry, and is easy to do things without thinking about the consequences. This is very easy to do.Unexpectedly, Chang Xi came out halfway and stopped her with such words, the queen saw that the situation had been restored, and most of her anger disappeared.

Such a powerful killing move was actually dispelled by Chang Xi's understatement. Concubine Li couldn't help but secretly looked at her carefully, and suddenly remembered that it was the dancer who competed in singing and dancing that day, and said, "So it's you!"

Chang Xi said indifferently: "It's the servant girl."

Concubine Li said coldly: "The Empress has always boasted that the Kunde Palace has strict rules, how can she accept this dancer who invites favor with obscene words and songs?"

The queen said indifferently: "Knowing your mistakes can make things better. Since I am the lord of the Sixth Palace, I should be a benefactor and give them a chance to reform."

Concubine Li sneered and said, "The empress is really magnanimous."

Wang Meiren calmly said: "I heard that in the central Sichuan area, there are natives who are good at raising Gu insects, and use them to defeat the enemy and win a hundred battles."

Everyone didn't know why she said such a sentence suddenly, they were all taken aback, Concubine Hua said: "What does Wang Meiren mean?"

Wang Meiren smiled and said: "It's a pity that once this Gu worm grows up, it will turn against the old master. Do sisters think this worm is interesting?"

Queen Wang was startled, and then understood what she meant. Chang Xi is beautiful, good at singing and dancing, and funny in talking and laughing. It is hard to guarantee that one day His Majesty will not be addicted to become the second concubine Li. All her efforts are to marry her. clothes, but that Chang Xi keeps saying that he doesn't want to follow His Majesty!People's hearts repeat...But I can't believe it.Thinking about it, he frowned slightly.

Wang Meiren's eyes turned slightly and she could see that Queen Wang was suspicious. She thought that this plan had worked, and it would be unsightly to continue talking, so she said, "I saw that the sisters were not talking very well, so I said such an interesting bug. , I don’t mean anything else, it’s just to amuse everyone, this morning I heard from the maid in the Furong Garden that the peonies are in full bloom, I wonder when the empress will take the concubines for a visit?”

Chang Xi listened to Wang Meiren talking about the witchcraft in the Southwest to insinuate herself. This trick of sowing dissension would not work for the queen. She just wanted to explain it, but she changed the topic and talked about peony, which was not good for her. Besides.

Everyone talked for a while about what kind of peonies are rare and what kind of peonies are suitable for hairpins. Empress Wang said with a smile: "This morning Sanlang also told me that he will entertain all the younger sisters and ministers and scholars in Furong Garden in ten days. This palace tells all the sisters to be prepared."

"Sanlang...he..." Everyone in the palace knew that Sanlang meant Li Longji, seeing the queen calling His Majesty Sanlang so affectionately, and calling him so recklessly, everyone felt sour.

Concubine Li was the first one who couldn't bear it anymore, and said with a sneer, "It seems that the empress is so happy that she returned to the time when you were newly married this morning. Your Majesty allowed you to be called this name at that time."

Chang Xi saw that there was an opportunity to frustrate Concubine Li's arrogance, so she smiled and said, "Reporting to Concubine Li, Your Majesty came down to have breakfast this morning, and insisted on her hand and said, 'You don't have to be so polite when you marry a married couple. From now on, I will call you Zhen Saburo as usual at the time of the newlyweds!'" She imitated Li Longji's affectionate style at that time vividly, and she was so angry that Concubine Li became angry. She was about to get up and reprimand, but she was held tightly by the corner of her clothes by Wang Meiren.

Queen Wang was very satisfied with this, she nodded with a smile and said, "I'm tired of talking today, all the sisters should leave."

Everyone came to Shengnuo in unison and withdrew one by one.

Concubine Li brought Liu Jieyu and Wang Meiren out of the palace, strolled to the imperial garden, the three came to the Xinxin Pavilion to watch the scenery, and ordered a group of maids to wait beside them.

Concubine Li said angrily: "It's all the fault of that lowly maid named Chang Xi!"

Liu Jieyu said: "At that time in the Jiaofang Division, the empress should take the opportunity to kill her. At this time, she is under the empress's protection, so it is not easy for us to do so."

Concubine Li spat and said: "It's just a dancer of the Jiaofang Division, I want to see what troubles she can make.

Wang Meiren groaned and said for a while, "The most urgent thing is to persuade His Majesty to appoint Prince Ying as the crown prince. This time it is a fundamental matter."

Concubine Li said: "Don't you know this! It's annoying that Zhang Jiuling is a stubborn person. No matter how intimidating and tempting I am, I refuse to agree to support Ying'er as the crown prince. Even Xiao Qing, an idiot, can't persuade Your Majesty. Zhang said this An old fox will just keep pretending to be confused!"

Liu Jieyu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down, that Zhang Jiuling is more than stubborn in front of you. A few days ago, I heard that the Empress Empress, in order to thank him for standing up and admonishing him in the Huae Building last time, sent her father-in-law Xiao Lu, who is in charge of the Kunde Hall Zhang Jiuling went to give Zhang Jiuling a thank-you gift, but he scolded him and cleared him out. Zhang Jiuling said that his direct admonition was for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, not for the queen, and the queen mother did not need to thank him.

As the mother of a country, the empress bribed the ministers, which is really out of character!Xiao Luzi went back to report, and made the Queen very angry! "

Wang Meiren has always been reserved, so she also laughed out loud: "Let's ignore this nerd at this time! Your Majesty will hold a banquet in Furong Garden ten days later. We want to take this opportunity to restore the empress's favor, and take this opportunity to make His Majesty agree to the appointment of the crown prince." , as long as the position of the crown prince is established, those ministers who are downwind in the court will not fail to fall to the empress's side, and it will not be too late to clean up the queen and concubine Hua!"

Liu Jieyu said: "The banquet given by the Furong Garden is just to enjoy the peonies, what opportunity can I take advantage of?"

Wang Mei said: "No! The peony is my national flower of the Tang Dynasty. Besides, since Emperor Taizong, the ministers of the imperial court have paid more attention to writing poems, and the fashion of scientific research has to compose poems for comparison. What's more, there are elegant scholars in the imperial court during this banquet. , Your Majesty must ask someone to recite poems on the spot. Everyone knows that the empress is illiterate. If the empress can make a blockbuster by singing the peony this time, shocking everyone, it will surely make your majesty happy, and it will also show that the empress is dedicated and studious, which is better than that. The king and queen who can't read a basket!"

Liu Jieyu clapped her hands and praised: "This idea is very good, then ask the beautiful sister to write a few good poems, so that the empress can recite it by heart."

Concubine Li nodded and said: "Very good! I have given you a thousand pieces of gold, you go and settle this matter for me! I will definitely show off in the Furong Garden and make that old woman mad at the empress!"

"Promise!" Wang Meiren bowed down and bowed, and she was already smiling when she got up again, she really had the chance to win and was full of pride.
