Houmen's wife

Chapter 12
Nian Qing's eyebrows twitched, she heard her mother talk about some things about the palace, but she didn't have time to sort it out.It is said that King Lingyun is a king with a different surname. His ancestor, King Lingyun, helped the previous emperors to make achievements.And the two empress dowagers in the palace, one is the emperor's biological mother, the empress dowager, and the other is the original empress Duanxian. Empress Duanxian is Duanmu Junye's younger sister, Nianqing's aunt, and the current empress dowager. .Although the emperor was born to the Empress Dowager, because he was raised by Empress Duanxian since he was a child, the emperor has been relatively close to the Lingyun Palace since he was a child.

But after all, he is an emperor, how can he allow others to sleep soundly beside his pillow.The art of the emperor pays attention to balance. If the prime minister hadn't seized power with all his heart, King Lingyun would have been destroyed long ago, instead of using it to check and balance the prime minister.

Nian Qing withdrew her thoughts and raised her eyebrows slightly, "The person holding the scepter must be regarded as a high-ranking person. That person must not take credit for pride, otherwise he will be killed. However, there is room for reversing everything. Can the center of power not intervene?" If you have to get involved, you must choose the one who is most likely to win, and after you succeed, you will retreat to the second line and be an idle person. But no matter what you say, it depends on human effort, and you must not fight alone." Speaking of this, Nian Qing paused , Seeing Duanmu Junye's eyes shining, she continued: "Father, there is a private school in the mansion, so that the sons in charge of the mansion can learn a little. If you are really afraid of the emperor's attack, this is another way of protection."

Duanmu Junye was startled, he looked straight at Nian Qing, his heart was racing, this is his Duanmu Junye's daughter, she has such great wisdom, and he has buried her for so many years.He clapped his hands on the spot, "Okay, I'll listen to you!"

Looking at Duanmu Junye's excited eyes, Nian Qing's heart suddenly twitched.She didn't know whether she was right or wrong in doing so, and whether she would cultivate another batch of "Xiang Army".Will Duanmu Junye become Zeng Guofan?Her heart is heavy, now that her sister joins the harem, if the foreign relatives monopolize the power, the country will inevitably be in chaos.

Thinking of this, she clenched her fists, and immediately knelt down, "Father, no matter what the future of Lingyun Palace will be, please don't create a scene where foreign relatives dominate, otherwise, Lingyun Palace will not last long, and the danger will be great." .”

Duanmu Junye's heart trembled, he was almost dazzled by the excitement, he looked up at Nianqing again, and nodded emphatically.

With the return of spring, the cold air in the house has gone down a bit. Nian Qing finally opened the window that had been covered for a winter. She took a deep breath of the cool but not cold air, and with her eyes slightly closed, she listened to Fu'er's broken thoughts. , with the joy of the dust settled in my heart.

"Miss San, it's very humid this spring, close it quickly and take care of yourself." Fu'er rearranged the quilt, and replaced it with the velvet quilt that Mammy Zhao sent yesterday.Touching the quilt that was as smooth as silk and moist as water, she felt emotional. It has been so many years, and that quilt has been covered for so long.There was a faint movement in her heart, if the third lady hadn't thought of that punishment method, she wouldn't know when this day would have a head.

After changing the quilt, she couldn't help rolling her eyes when she saw the spring water dripping from Miss San's nose because she was greedy for cold. "Miss San, the cold spring is expected to be cold. This is also the time for the cold spring. Your body has just recovered, so don't get sick."

Nian Qing took the cloak she handed over, smiled and said: "Don't worry about it." But fortunately, Fu'er, if she hadn't been dealing with servants all these years, I'm afraid she wouldn't have survived today.Looking around the room, I suddenly remembered that my mother often went to the front hall these two days, and she didn't stay in the garden very much.Nian Qing pursed her lips and said to Fu'er, "Fu'er, do you think Mother will give me a younger brother?"

Fu'er laughed and said, "Miss San can't be wrong."

"loquacious."

"Miss San, the big kitchen has delivered food, do you want to eat now?" The two maids held food boxes with respectful smiles on their faces.

Fu'er stepped forward and took the food box.The two servant girls took a step back and stood on both sides of the round table.The food was put on the table, and Nian Qing saw that today's dishes were richer than yesterday's. She filled a bowl of soup, smelled it lightly, and suddenly frowned, the soup was poisonous!In her previous life, she was a doctor, and the smell was obviously arsenic trioxide. After processing, it became the famous arsenic, which was called Hedinghong in ancient times.He glanced at the two maids calmly, and saw that there was no abnormality between the eyebrows of the two maids.

She narrowed her eyes, could it be that Mother Zhao would allow others to poison her food!Is this the people below listening to what others say or is it?If it's Mother Zhao, hum!

"Fu'er, go invite Zhao Mama." Nian Qing put down the bowl and ate the walnut cake that the prince rewarded yesterday. The two maids saw that the third lady had just picked up the bowl but didn't eat it. They thought there was something wrong with the food, and immediately Feeling uneasy, could it be that someone who hadn't seen it dared to touch the food in Yulin Garden?However, they took care of the lunch box along the way, who can steal it?

"You guys, go outside and bring a cat in."

The two servant girls nodded, and when they came in again, a cat with some shedding hair appeared in the hands of one servant girl.

After a while, Mother Zhao stepped forward, she was holding the hem of the dress with both hands, her brows were a little flustered.Just now when I heard Miss Fuer tell me to go to Yulinyuan, my legs suddenly softened, my son!Mother I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Unexpectedly, upon entering the room, Duanmu Nianqing was sitting steadily with a smile on his face.

Zhao Nanny's expression froze, but she didn't dare to look into the bright eyes of the third young lady, she just looked at the curtain of Wancui.

"Mother Zhao has worked hard. The assorted melon and fruit soup made in the kitchen today is very popular with me. Mother Zhao is also here to try it." As she spoke, she winked at Fu'er, only to see the ladle sticking into the soup Then, he brought the soup of gold and jade to Mother Zhao.Zhao Mama's expression froze, and she actually felt that the air became thinner.

She took a deep look at Miss San, only to feel that the person in front of her was still smiling like a picture, but that smile was like a sharp sword piercing her heart.

I don't know if the bowl of soup is more clear and attractive because of the addition of poison.Zhao mama held the handkerchief tightly with both hands, and her hands were already slightly sweating.She pushed it away and said: "This kitchen is specially made for the third lady. The slaves didn't control those who didn't follow the rules before. Now I can't take the lead in breaking the rules."
