good wife

Chapter 678 Inside Story (4)
After hearing this, Princess Ming knelt down on the ground and looked at the queen with an incredulous expression. Although she thought that the queen would punish her, she never thought that the punishment would be so severe!She actually handed over all the rights of her mistress to Bai Min'er!I left the title of a concubine empty!

The queen looked at her coldly, there was no emotion in her eyes!Only now did Qin Susu realize how big a mistake she had made!I shouldn't, I shouldn't, I shouldn't have hit Bai Min'er's idea!Even if the queen doesn't like her anymore, she is still her own niece, and they are connected by blood!What's more, there is Duke Protector's Mansion behind her!Concubine Ming felt scared for a moment. In the scorching summer, it was like being in an ice cellar. She used to be self-righteous and smart, but now it seems that it is just a joke!It's ridiculous that I used to think that as long as I was smart enough and capable enough, I would definitely be able to win the queen's love and attention!But now?It was she who ruined all this with her own hands!
King Ming looked at Concubine Ming who was kneeling on the ground, a look of disgust flashed in his eyes, how could such a woman be his rightful concubine?Suddenly, a pure smiling face jumped into his mind!So bright, sunny, and gentle!
King Ming lowered his head, "Queen Mother, I still have important matters to discuss with Emperor Father, so I will take my leave first."

"Go, state affairs are important."

After King Ming left, other people also left Kunning Palace one after another.There was a smile on the queen's face, and she said in a cold tone: "Where did you find the spices in the sachet?"

"Hui Niangniang, I found it in Wang Shufei's room."

"Hmph! This Wang Wei is quite scheming. However, Min'er in this Palace will never allow them to bully you wantonly!"

"Your Majesty, since Wang Shufei has already been found out, why don't you just punish her as well? What if she hurts Miss again?"

"No! She doesn't have the guts yet! I have already expressed my attitude today, so she naturally understands everything in her heart! Besides, this Wang Wei is still somewhat attached to the Bai family. I don't want anyone to criticize me. Opportunity! As for what this concubine concubine has done, if Min'er can't even do it for her! She doesn't even deserve to sit in this seat!"

"Yes! Your Majesty is wise."

The queen got up and went down the steps, and walked to the center of the hall, "Is there any news from Concubine De?"

"Returning to your empress, Concubine De was drenched in the rain last night, and her fever persists today. She has already invited the imperial physician three times."

"Hmph! Concubine De, are you trying to trick me? Do you think the emperor will be fooled by you as easily as before?" After the queen finished speaking, she ordered to Madam Liu: "Take care of Concubine Zhao and Min'er's miscarriage. Spread it out, just to avoid the aphrodisiac."

"Yes, the servant knows how to do it."

Two days later, Jingyi was sitting in the Wenhua Courtyard, drinking the plum juice specially made by Si Yu for her, and listening to Yuanxi playing the piano for her, it was very pleasant!

After finishing playing the song, Yuan Xi said: "Yiyi, is there anything else you want to hear?"

Jingyi shook her head, "Let's take a rest first, it's a hot day, don't suffer from heat stroke."

Yuanxi got up and sat down opposite to Jingyi, "The Qianqiu Festival is coming soon. In previous years, we were not in Beijing, so that's fine. No one will comment on the birthday gift we gave, but this time, We are going to present the birthday present in person, are you nervous?"

"What's there to be nervous about? Isn't it the emperor's birthday? I'm curious now, what kind of birthday gift this Princess Ming will give, so I can turn around!"

"Turn over?" Yuan Xi chuckled, and then poured himself a glass of plum juice, "How can it be so easy? This time, it is obvious that the queen wants to teach Qin Susu a lesson! Who made her be Have the guts to design that King Ming lost two children in a row? And one of them is her own niece?"

Jingyi smiled lightly, "You are right, the queen's methods are indeed ruthless! It's just a small sachet, but it leads to so many things! She is indeed a master of palace fighting!"

"It's just pitiful for us, who gave us 5 taels of silver notes for nothing!" Yuan Xi said with some distress.

"Okay! Isn't it just 5 taels? You have a lot of money! Don't cry poor with me!" Jing Yi rolled her eyes at him and said angrily.

Yuan Xi curled his lips and said: "No matter how rich you are, you can't help but give it away to others for nothing!"

"Didn't you say it was to subsidize the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"

"Hey! How can the empress be so kind? Thinking of making money for the emperor?"

Jingyi was a little puzzled and said: "What? Isn't the Ministry of Internal Affairs belonging to the emperor?"

"It's true that the Ministry of Internal Affairs belongs to the emperor! But the money may not necessarily reach the emperor! Think about it, in two days, there will be a feast for the Qianqiu Festival in this palace. Who will be in charge of the preparations? And where will the money come from?"

Jingyi thought for a while, didn't she?Now Concubine De basically has no place to talk!Now the palace is dominated by the Queen alone, she is in charge of the Sixth Palace by herself, and there is no one in charge of the Sixth Palace who can share with her the preparation of the banquet. How much money is spent and how much is left is up to her alone Calculate?
Only then did Jingyi understand, "It turns out that the empress spent so much effort just to stare at the feast of the Qianqiu Festival! Wonderful! Really wonderful! First, she tried to cut the power of Concubine De's assistant six palaces! And then There are noble concubines in this harem, but only Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu are left, but both of them are in poor health, so they may assist the sixth palace. In this way, in this harem, the queen is the only one ! This is thinking of making money for King Ming!"

"More than that!"

"Oh? What else?"

"You forgot, Miao Jiang also sent envoys during the Qianqiu Festival."

"What about the Miao Jiang envoy? What's the matter with the queen?"

Yuan Xi smiled wryly, "I received news this morning that the envoys of the Miao Jiang faction were a man and a woman. The man is the eldest prince of the Miao Jiang royal family, who is also the future king of Miao Jiang, and this woman is the king of Miao Jiang. daughter, Princess Lixiang."

"Princess Lixiang? The eldest prince?"

"Princess Lixiang is sixteen years old and is not yet married. It is said that she was born with a beautiful face and a beautiful country. She is very much loved by the king of Miaojiang! Even his princes are not as favored as this princess!"

"So?" Jingyi motioned him to continue.

Yuan Xi chuckled a few times, "Yiyi, King Ming and King Jin appear to be evenly matched on the surface, but it is only because of the queen's overwhelming attack on Concubine De that it appears that the odds of winning on the side of King Ming are slightly lower." There are a few more. But Concubine De is only in the harem after all. Besides, people have seen too many battles in the harem, and one day if they fail to keep it, Concubine De will make a comeback! Therefore, the empress must win over all the forces that can be drawn now!"

Jingyi's eyes lit up, "You mean, the empress intends to marry Princess Lixiang to Prince Ming?"
