The reborn poisonous concubine was teased

Chapter 144 When the conspiracy is in progress ([-])

in the palace.

Huang Jieze had just left the imperial court, and walked towards Kunning Palace just like in the past, the maids and eunuchs were already used to it, so they didn't even need to report.

"Son, please greet the queen mother."

"Get up, as long as you are filial, come here every day to say hello." Su Jinyao put down the scissors in her hand, and motioned for Huang Jieze to come over, "Look, how about this pot of flowers I pruned?"

"My mother's good craftsmanship." Huang Jieze looked at the neatly cut flowers, praised, and helped his mother to sit down at the table, chatting, "Since when did my mother become interested in these things?"

"I'm bored, sometimes I play with these flowers and plants, and I feel more energetic and feel better." Su Jinyao ordered someone to bring some snacks, "Try it, I specially prepared it for you."

"The empress is bothering you." Huang Jieze picked up a piece, tasted it, and said, "Father, but the emperor hasn't come to the empress recently?"

Su Jinyao sighed faintly, staring at Kou Dan on her nails, her eyes became a little misty, "I've already gotten used to it. When I was young, I fought to the death and fought to the death, and finally snatched the emperor away. Now I see it. How to fight, there is always a newer and more beautiful one."

"The queen mother is also very young now." Huang Jieze patted the queen mother's hand and comforted, "Besides, the queen mother still has me."

"You child, you will please me." Su Jinyao laughed when she heard this, and a look of determination flashed in her eyes, "That's right, I still have Ze'er at least."

Suddenly remembered something, she continued, "In two days, it will be your father's birthday. If you are busy these two days, then don't come here."

Huang Jieze sneered, and said in an unclear manner: "My son is fine, but to be honest, the third brother is busy."

"Oh, what's going on?" Su Jinyao was taken aback. She just recovered from her illness these few days, and she didn't have the heart to care about the affairs of the previous dynasty.

Huang Jieze didn't speak, just glanced at the waiters around, Su Jinyao immediately understood what he meant, and waved to let everyone get down.

"The third younger brother persuaded the young master of Luohonggu to attend the birthday, and the royal father was very happy, and relying on that person is still living in his mansion. In recent days, the imperial father has followed the third younger brother's wishes in everything. Even the birthday matters are mostly left to him." After everyone went down, Huang Jieze clenched his fists and smashed it on the table as if venting, and said indignantly, "I really don't know what the father thinks , obviously I am the crown prince, yet I come to support the third brother at this time!"

Su Jinyao was not so excited when she heard this. She fiddled with the fingertips on her hands and analyzed quietly, "The emperor wants to use the third child to check and balance you. Now you are too powerful in the court. Even if you are the prince, he will always It's the emperor, before you ascended the throne, you will inevitably be jealous, I think the emperor took this into consideration when he let the third child back, this time he just took advantage of it."

Sure enough, Jiang was still old and hot, and he could see through the emperor's intentions at a glance. A woman who could become a queen, even if she looked innocent on the surface, would not be easy. !
She looked at the obviously irritable person opposite, shook her head, and reminded: "You, you have to restrain yourself in everything, after all, you are just a prince."

"What the empress taught me is that my son will pay attention to it in the future." Huang Jieze nodded, understanding.

"By the way, I heard that you went to Lie Wang's mansion yesterday, and you went for the young master of Luohonggu?" Su Jinyao thought about the news from last night, and now hearing what he said, this is the only possibility.

"Yes." Huang Jieze said calmly without hiding anything.

"How?" She heard that the poisoning in Taiyuan City was solved by this woman, so she probably has some skills.

Speaking of this, Huang Jieze thought for a while, and said with some doubts: "I have already made it clear to her that I want her to come to the East Palace. I thought she would immediately agree, but I didn't expect that she said that she would consider it. Although she did not refuse , but Erchen is still a little uneasy."

"Oh?" Su Jinyao picked up the teacup for a moment, gently blew on the floating tea leaves, and thought for a long time before she spoke, "According to common sense, a discerning person will choose the prince's side at first glance, unless ... She owes Lao San a huge favor, or maybe."

Seeing the sudden silence, Huang Jieze couldn't help asking: "Or what?"

Su Jinyao raised her head, gave him a meaningful look, and said slowly: "She fell in love with King Lie, and they must have known each other before Taiyuan City. Along the way, it's not like there are no such things as lonely men and widows. Possibly, besides this, I can't think of a third possibility!"

Huang Jieze was taken aback for a moment, as if suddenly enlightened, he clenched his right hand and punched his left hand, "No wonder, when Erchen went yesterday, she was neither cold nor indifferent to Erchen from the beginning, and Erchen also mentioned it, she felt embarrassed , Erchen is here to help her." After finishing speaking, he asked a little strangely, "Then why does she still say to think about it?"

"Maybe it's just that she likes the third child herself, but the third child doesn't have that intention, so she may be hesitant." Su Jinyao said with some uncertainty.

After hearing this, Huang Jieze frowned, "No matter what, the situation is always against us. Being so passive is not the way of a minister!"

Suddenly, a malicious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Since she still has feelings for Jiudi, why not let her give up completely."

Su Jinyao looked at the person opposite who seemed to have paid attention, and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"I'm afraid the queen mother will be involved in this matter, and choose a good marriage for the third brother." He looked straight at the queen mother, and immediately expressed his thoughts.

Su Jinyao was taken aback for a moment, and after careful consideration, she felt that this method was feasible. After all, the third child had already reached the age of marriage, and should have had a concubine according to common sense, but now she didn't even have a concubine room, "However, this candidate... It's a bit difficult, since you want to choose a concubine for Lie Wang, your status should not be too low. Nowadays, most of the court is your power, and the one who can be worthy of the position of concubine must be the daughter of an important minister, but no matter which minister , if you marry the prostitute, it is hard to guarantee that you will not end up favoring King Lie."

"What the concubine mother said is true." Hearing this, Huang Jieze also felt that it was reasonable, which was equivalent to giving the third younger brother an extra power.

For a while, there was silence in Kunning Palace.

Suddenly, the two thought of something, raised their eyes at the same time, looked at each other, only to find that the other had the same eyes as their own, looked at each other and smiled, and said a person's name together, hit it off!
-

Outside the imperial study.

"Why is the empress here?" The chief eunuch outside the door saw the person coming, and hurried over to ask.

Su Jinyao pointedly looked at the brightly lit imperial study room, and asked softly, "Is the emperor still busy in there?"

"Oh, that's right, the miscellaneous family wants to persuade the emperor to go to rest, and I will be busy tomorrow." The chief eunuch sighed distressedly, glanced at the maid following behind the queen, and said clearly, "It is the queen who knows that she loves the emperor, and the miscellaneous family I'll let you know."

"Excuse me, father-in-law." Su Jinyao nodded and smiled decently.

Hearing the chief eunuch's report, Huang Yanyuan raised his head from the memorial, frowned and said, "Why is she here?" After saying that, he waved his hand, "Forget it, let her in."

"Hey."

After a while, the door of the imperial study room was pushed open, and a woman came in style. It was probably at night. The woman did not wear a cumbersome bun, nor did she wear a phoenix robe that symbolizes her status. Her hair was slightly coiled and scattered on the left side A small part of it was covered, and it looked like a different kind of style. She was only wearing a purple dress, which looked elegant and luxurious, but also had a bit of mystery, emerging from the dark place little by little.

"Concubine, please greet the emperor."

Huang Yanyuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the woman below. The two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they were a little dazed. Then he came back to his senses, knowing that something might be wrong with the empress coming here at this time, "Get up, why is the empress so late?" coming?"

Su Jinyao smiled faintly, but did not answer immediately, the maid behind her quickly handed the things in her hand to the queen, and retreated automatically.

"This is?" Huang Yanyuan looked at the exquisite utensils on the table calmly, even though he asked this on the surface, he knew in his heart that it was probably something to eat.

"Tomorrow is the emperor's birthday banquet. There will definitely be many people celebrating the emperor's birthday. Although the concubines have prepared small gifts, they are afraid that the emperor will be overwhelmed tomorrow, so the concubines are thinking of celebrating the emperor's birthday one day earlier. " Su Jinyao lifted the lid, and a rich aroma rushed to her face, and a bowl of delicate thick soup appeared, "I remember that the emperor used to love this kind of soup the most."

It is reasonable to say that the emperor hates words that are obviously competing for favor, but at this time, the expression on Huang Yanyuan's face softened a little, and he lost more than half of his guard. In recent years, although he did not say anything, But she also knew that the empress had spent all her thoughts on the prince, and she was much less concerned with the affairs of the harem.

He looked at the woman with anticipation in his eyes, and sighed in his heart, no matter what, she was still just a woman, he was overthinking, "The queen has a heart."

Huang Yanyuan took a sip, the thick soup entered the mouth, the fragrance lingered on the teeth and cheeks, and the aftertaste was endless. Her craftsmanship was the most speechless, and she said with some nostalgia: "I remember, you used to be like this, no matter what happened in front of me They all said it openly, even in such things as fighting for favor, no other concubine is as advanced as you, and now she has been a queen for so many years, and she is still the same."

There is a bit of humor in the tone, and you can tell when you hear it, you are not really blaming others.

Su Jinyao cast a strange look at him, and said in disbelief, "Obviously the emperor said before that this is good and won't let the concubines change, but now he's teaching the concubines a lesson." There was a rare touch in the voice The shyness of the daughter's family seems to have returned to the days when they first met in an instant.

"Look at you, I'm not happy to talk about it." Huang Yanyuanyu smiled, feeling a lot more relaxed, and pulled the queen to sit beside him.

As she approached, Su Jinyao happened to see clearly the memorial that was spread out, and she suddenly realized, "It turns out that the emperor is looking at the process of tomorrow's birthday."
