Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

The two of them left, and the Queen Mother held back the court ladies and eunuchs who were serving, beckoning Xu Shuhua to come near.

In the presence of so many minions, Xu Shuhua was unscrupulously criticized by the Emperor Guangyuan and the imperial concubine, and she was almost unable to hold it. At this moment, seeing the empress dowager like this, her eyes were hot, and she knelt in front of her and threw herself into her arms and choked up: grandmother!"

The empress dowager embraced her and patted her back gently, and sighed: "Did you see it with your own eyes today? In the eyes of the emperor, there is no one else except the concubine and empress! Your dress today suits you very well. , Showed your appearance, temperament, and manners perfectly, but the emperor still didn’t look at you too much! Even if he had a deliberate element in it, when he looked at you, there was no interest in his eyes. The Ai family sees it clearly! Shuhua, you are a good daughter of the Xu family, why bother to go this way and ruin your life?"

Xu Shuhua was also a jewel in the palm of her hand since she was a child, and her parents cherished her when she grew up. She is so outstanding, she also has her own self-esteem and pride. She felt a pain in her heart, and her choking became a low sob. The more she cried, the more sad she became.

The empress dowager knew that she needed time to digest what she had just seen and what she had said, and did not push her, but took her back, gently caressing her back lovingly.

Xu Shuhua cried more and more sad, and cried more and more discouraged. After a while, he intermittently, and then stopped.

"Grandma, forgive me, I—"

As soon as the emotional upheaval passed, she resumed her dignity and courtesy as before. After leaving the arms of the empress dowager, she wiped her tears and got up.

The empress dowager leaned forward and took her hand, pulled her to sit down beside her, and said with a gentle smile: "We are the aunts and nephews of our relatives, why do we need to be so! Shuhua, we are sincere in mourning the family. I only say these things for your own good. Otherwise, whether you enter the palace or not, why bother with the family?"

"Shuhua, thank you, grandma," Xu Shuhua raised her red eyes and asked with tears: "Auntie, Shuhua doesn't understand how the emperor treats Qing concubine, how could this be like this-- Qing concubine, Shuhua doesn't think What is she so good, worthy of the emperor's treatment!"

The Empress Dowager couldn't help but chuckled and said: "Then I ask you, Mrs. Weininghou, who is better than Miss Six of the Zhu family?"

Xu Shuhua's heart froze. Who in the capital did not know the grudge between Fangzhou, Zhu Yuying, and the entire Zhu family?Zhu Yuying finally fell to the end where she could not return and was ruined, and she made more jokes for the back homes.I don't know how many ladies and ladies have used her as a negative teaching material.

To be fair, Mrs. Weining Hou is naturally inferior to Zhu Yuying. She is not as good as her birth, education, and appearance. However, Zhu Yuying just cannot be a concubine!

Everyone said that Mrs. Weininghou was aggressive and sturdy, a first-class jealous woman.However, without the support of Weininghou, how can she be jealous?

Aunt-grandmother means that the emperor treats the imperial concubine of the Qing just like the Weining Hou treats his wife Weining Hou?

"Why! What the hell is this!" Xu Shuhua muttered in confusion, "I am not reconciled, I am not reconciled!"

The Empress Dowager sighed: "Why, I don't even know the Aijia. Perhaps this is how everyone has their own fate! Shuhua, Zhu Yuying back then, is it not because of unwillingness!"

Xu Shuhua's face changed drastically, and she shook her head and said, "No, it's different...This, after all, this is the emperor, not an ordinary person!"

The empress dowager smiled bitterly, and said: “There were princes and grandsons before, and everyone’s eyes are on them. Few people understand the temperament of the emperor today! These days, Ai Jiazi has carefully thought about it again. In retrospect, the emperor is different from the first emperor, the first prince, and the first emperor's grandson! Such a thing is absolutely impossible with the first emperor and the first prince, but it is hard to say for the current emperor!"

Although Xu Shuhua still didn't believe it, her heart was already shaken.

Although she wants to be an imperial concubine, or even a queen, she will not know that she is hopeless and still rush forward without hesitation.No one is that stupid, Zhu Yuying is still ahead!

The empress dowager laughed, and said: "Why don't you do anything like this, watch it first, so that you won't lose your face and reputation in the end! You just have to make your own mind, Xu family, it is sad after all. The family’s maiden family, the Ai’s family will naturally have some arrangements, the old man, they can rest assured! If you enter the palace as a decoration, then why do you have to catch you? The feeling of being alone and deserted and staying alone is not uncomfortable!"

Xu Shuhua's heart shuddered again, and finally nodded gently, and said in a low voice: "My grand niece listens to you..."

The empress dowager finally felt more relaxed, and said softly with a smile: "The Aijia knows you are a child who understands!"

For dinner, Emperor Guangyuan arrived as scheduled.

Xu Shuhua changed into ordinary home-style clothes, put on an ordinary girl's hair bun, and still served calmly beside the Queen Mother.

Emperor Guangyuan glanced at her quickly and said in his heart: It seems that the stimulation effect in the morning is good...

After having dinner with the Empress Dowager, the Emperor Guangyuan glanced at Aunt Yan and the others.

The empress dowager retired everyone, including Xu Shuhua, leaving Aunt Yan by her side, and said with a smile: "Aunt Yan is an old man who has been with Ai's family for decades. It doesn't matter if the emperor has anything to say!"

"Yes, the emperor grandmother."

The Emperor Guangyuan responded, suddenly stood up, and knelt down toward the Queen Mother.

"The emperor! Get up quickly, you, what are you doing!" The Empress Dowager was shocked, got up hurriedly to help the Emperor Guangyuan herself, angrily and anxiously said: "You are the emperor, how can this be so good!"

"Grandma," Guangyuan Emperor helped the Queen Mother sit down, and sat down at her head casually, and said: "The grandson has something to ask the emperor's grandmother today, and only asks the emperor's grandmother to feel sorry for the grandson. It should be a big gift!"

Seeing his rare seriousness, the empress dowager realized in her heart, "If you have something, you just say it! You are just a grandson of Laijia, how can you not hurt you?"

"Really!" Emperor Guangyuan raised his eyebrows, his eyes were bright, his face showed a childish smile, and he smiled: "With the words of the emperor grandmother, the grandson can rest assured! After! And, besides Qing'er in this life, grandson doesn't want to have any other women, so please make it happen!"

Although I had expected it, it was far from hearing it with my own ears.

Looking at Emperor Guangyuan, the Empress Dowager was a bit speechless for a while!

She sighed and said faintly: "The emperor, in this life, if it is long or not, it is short--"

, 1561

"Grandson knows," Emperor Guangyuan looked more serious than ever before, and said, "Grandson never thought that one day he would become an emperor. Ever since I met Qinger, grandson has always wanted to grow old with her. Don’t give up, one double for one lifetime! Even though you have become this emperor now, your grandson’s heart will not change! Grandma, please trust your grandson once!"

The Empress Dowager was a little moved and wanted to laugh, and said half-soundingly: "In that case, these nobles and beauties in the palace, what are your plans?"

Emperor Guangyuan said without hesitation: "Send it! If you don't want it, there is no shortage of this bowl of rice in the palace. It's just that, if you dare to make trouble, I will kill her whole family!" Give them a way to survive, and those who are willing to leave the palace secretly send out the palace, and they will marry in the future. If they want to marry in the future, they will be kept in the palace in captivity. Who else can find out what storms will fail! "

Concubine Han is dead, Concubine Yan is dead, Noble Lin and Noble Xiang are dead, Noble Lian is half crazy, and the rest are scared by Concubine Han, no one is silent, and they dare not mess around with them!

The empress dowager was startled, and said with a smile: "You are so thoughtful!" She sighed again, "Qing'er can think so, it's great!"

Emperor Guangyuan brightened his eyes and hurriedly said with a smile: "Grandma, are you agreeing?"

"How much is the relationship between the Ai family's promise or not?" The Empress Dowager couldn't help but laugh, and sighed: "The emperor should pay more attention to the former dynasty. Ministers, can you agree?"

Emperor Guangyuan snorted with disdain: "If you agree or not, you can't let them!"

He said with a smile, "I have some ways to deal with those nosy old guys!"

The empress dowager was silent, and so did her heart, there is another sister behind the Qing noble concubine!Moreover, the imperial concubine Qing is not an easy mess!The emperor is so single-minded...

The empress dowager thought for a while, then smiled and said: "In this case, the emperor will deal with the previous dynasty. As long as the dynasty has no objection, the Aijia will naturally have no objection!"

"Then the matter after the establishment, is it so decided?" Emperor Guangyuan smiled again.

The empress dowager was slightly stiff. She originally wanted to vague this topic, but Emperor Guangyuan raised it plainly again.

"The emperor," the queen mother sighed: "I will be the queen, let's be the queen! The emperor can persuade the ministers not to send women to the harem, not to mention the draft, and to be the queen..."

Emperor Guangyuan has gone through so many things and has been the emperor for such a period of time. His mind is no longer comparable to that of His Royal Highness, who seemed to only be hippie and smile all day long.

In addition, the first emperor once said in front of him and Lao Min Jun Wang that Lian Fangqing could not be a follower.

Hearing what the Empress Dowager said, the Guangyuan emperor's heart jumped subconsciously, and he asked, "Emperor Grandma, there will only be Qing'er in the palace at that time. Who can stand without her? In other words, even if you don’t make her a queen, what is the difference if you do! I don’t want to wrong her!"

The last sentence is the point.

The empress dowager stagnated and did not know how to answer, she sighed: "You have to give Laijia some time! It's useless to say too many things at once! You have to wait until you have time to do it! Things should come slowly one by one, no rush, no rush, ah!"

No matter how emperor Guangyuan forced, entangled, or drew questions, the Empress Dowager was just talking about him, and would not confide in any way.

Emperor Guangyuan had no choice but to do nothing.

But he was suspicious: There must be a problem with this matter!

Fortunately, it is not nothing.

When he left Cining Palace, Emperor Guangyuan was generally satisfied.

It would be great if Qinger was able to conceive a child as soon as possible...If Qinger was pregnant with a child, the mother would be more expensive than the child, and no one could stop him from making her a queen!

After the Guangyuan Emperor left, the Empress Dowager looked at the beating candlelight, but was alone for a long time in deep thought.

With a light sigh, she ordered Aunt Yan to call Xu Shuhua.

After listening to the words of Emperor Guangyuan relayed by the Empress Dowager, Xu Shuhua's heart sank to the bottom. The half-grey heart was still struggling to leave a glimmer of hope, and it was completely gray!

"Grandma, tomorrow, Shuhua will go to bid farewell to the imperial concubine, and go back to the palace!" Xu Shuhua was silent for a while, and said softly, but her tone was extremely firm.

"Okay!" The empress dowager's mental arithmetic was completely relaxed. Xu Shuhua is the most outstanding girl in the Xu family's generation. Since she has all come back in despair, the Xu family will naturally not send another girl.

"The Ai's family will repair a book, and you can take it back to the old man. As for what Ai's family told you about the emperor and the noble concubine," the empress dowager paused and said: "You can tell the old man alone. The emperor has not made the matter public. Don’t let the news go, otherwise, the emperor’s top mustache is ugly. Even if he doesn’t blame the Ai family, he will always have a knot in the Xu family.”

"Yes, grandma!" Xu Shuhua agreed with a smile.Originally, she planned to hide it from anyone!

How could she not know the relationship?The emperor vowed to keep only one noble concubine in his life, and regardless of whether this matter is true or false, and how long it can last, the court will definitely explode. How can that group of old ministers, especially the clan, imperial court, cabinet, and Yushitai Give up?

The memorial must be presented to the emperor's imperial case like snow flakes. When the emperor is caught off guard, wouldn't it be annoying?

The emperor is angry, must find someone to vent his anger?

The big stone in the empress dowager’s heart fell to the ground, and she was distressed that Xu Shuhua was sensible, she could not help but took her to say half a night, and vowed to ensure that she would personally interrogate her family affairs, would ask the emperor to be the master, and point her to a good family. , I will never treat her badly in the future.

Xu Shuhua's originally depressed mood gradually improved, and she thanked her with a smile.

Lian Fangqing did not expect that the effect of the scene he played with Emperor Guangyuan would be so good!

Originally, someone came from outside the door early in the morning to report to Miss Xu to visit. She was a little unhappy: Why did you come again?

Hearing that she was coming to pay her respects, she was going to leave the palace and go home today. She was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Alright! It's been down in recent years, so let's go back if Miss Xu wants to go back! Wait for the new year to pass on from the palace. You enter the palace and talk, stay with the Queen Mother for a few more days!"

She smiled and said: "The empress dowager has always been thinking about her family's relatives! In fact, the emperor often talks about Xu Mansion. The empress dowager always mentions the kindness of her elderly to the emperor, and the emperor always mentions it with emotion!"

Xu Shuhua was even more relieved, and said with a smile: "How can the Xu family, how can the Emperor Lao Meng, the empress dowager, and the noble concubines worry about it, it is the blessing of the Xu family!"

Lian Fangqing knew she was a sensible person, and the two smiled at each other.

Leaving her to talk for a while, before leaving, she rewarded her with a pair of mutton fat white jade carvings and a pair of golden pearls.
