Tianhuang nobleman

The next day, in Fenghua Palace, the second rank of the Feng Mansion ordered Fang Shi to enter the palace early in the morning to hand over the invitation letter to Empress Feng.

Empress Feng's confidant female officer carefully looked at Empress Feng's face, and said in a low voice, "Do you want to see Madam?"

The confidant female officer still remembers the last time after Fang Shi left, Empress Feng made a big fuss in the bedroom alone. , Empress Feng smiled wryly, how could Fang have the guts, she was actually just a messenger, and Empress Feng still wanted to listen to the words of Mrs. Feng and Feng Guozhong.

Empress Feng nodded wearily: "Xuan."

Although Fang is Empress Feng's sister-in-law, she is five years younger than Empress Feng. Because she has been well-fed and well-maintained all these years, she looks only 30 years old. Empress Feng is relieved to see Fang's exquisite makeup. Jealous again, nodded and smiled, "Sister-in-law looks very good."

"Thank you for your blessings." Fang respectfully bowed to Empress Feng, sat down and said with concern after giving a seat and tea, "I don't know if the second prince is still in the empress's palace? The concubine found a kind of ointment from her mother's house to treat it." A club wound is the best."

Empress Feng smiled: "It's hard for you to think about it, but it's a pity that he's not here today, his injury is not healed, and my palace usually doesn't allow him to move around more, and he is still being raised in Zhaoyang Palace."

Fang Shi nodded, and Empress Feng asked as usual how the family was waiting, and finally took a sip of tea and said, "This time... is it father and brother who have something to say?"

Fang looked at the people in the palace, Empress Feng waved her hand to let the palace people go down, Fang said unhurriedly: "Madam, the master asked me to ask Madam, I heard that from that day... the emperor will never leave the palace. I haven't been to Empress Palace, is it because the emperor is busy with government affairs and can't take care of the harem, or...don't worry, empress, the emperor has gone to other places, and he didn't come to Empress Palace alone?"

Empress Feng paused, put down the teacup slowly, and smiled mockingly: "I went to Concubine Xue's palace once, and Guiren Jiang's palace once."

Fang nodded, silently counted the days and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty...the emperor has been deeply in love with your empress and her husband for many years, and it is rare for him not to come to your empress's palace for such a long time."

"It's just that because of what happened last time, the emperor is still annoyed by this palace." The queen wiped a trace of unwillingness in her eyes, "That's all, but the emperor has always given concubine Xue Gui the face these few days. Not to that bitch..."

Fang groaned in her heart, and quickly persuaded: "Your Majesty, be careful with your words..."

Concubine Xue, the mother concubine of the third son of the emperor Qi Qi, Concubine Xue's mother's family is also very powerful in the court, and she is young, so she has been favored all these years.

Fang sighed secretly in her heart, she actually knew all of this, that's why her father-in-law was in a hurry, everyone could see that the emperor had the intention of cultivating other princes, at this time Concubine Xue suddenly became so embarrassing... No one in Feng's residence could sit Living.

Mrs. Fang has also figured out Empress Feng's temper these years, and tried her best to persuade her softly: "Queen, calm down, no matter what you do, Concubine Xue will not be able to surpass you. Do you remember, empress? Last year, empress suddenly had a bad temper, and the emperor was very angry. Throwing Concubine Xue Gui in her bedroom in the middle of the night, facing the cold wind to see the empress, the emperor and the empress have loved each other for many years, and the empress is used to it, she may not feel anything, but she doesn't know how much this matter spread outside the palace, causing much trouble Ladies and wives are envious."

Sure enough, Empress Feng's complexion improved a lot after hearing this, Fang smiled and continued: "The concubine only dares to tell the empress, no matter how high the status of Concubine Xue Gui is, she is just a concubine, and she cannot surpass the empress. Yes, if you get favored by chance, your empress doesn’t have to take it to heart, concubines... I don’t know when someone will suddenly be favored, and who will suddenly fall out of favor. Only you, empress, can really be as loving as the emperor. .”

Empress Feng felt much better, she looked at Fang with gentle eyes, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, there is always a sister-in-law who came to explain me a few words..."

"It's good that the empress can figure it out, but now the emperor and the empress are like this..." Fang paused and said with a wry smile, "Let's not say it's us, even others think it's not good. Now the emperor hasn't come to the empress's palace for several days. Well, it's okay to say, if it's still like this after a while, the clan will come to persuade you, empress, don't wait until that time, when the time comes to discuss it, it is a small matter between the emperor and empress and his wife. Let those caring people talk about it as a big thing, small things have become big things, and you can forget it with a smile, but in the end it may become a knot in the hearts of you and the emperor, why bother?"

A trace of anger flashed in Empress Feng's eyes, and she said forcefully: "It's not my fault..."

Fang sighed inwardly, old lady Feng left early, and her natal sisters all envied her not having to serve her mother-in-law, but who could know her hardships?She would rather have three layers of parents-in-law to serve, at least the matter of preaching and persuading people would not fall on her head.

The emperor made it clear that he wanted to teach the queen a lesson, but his sister-in-law just refused to bow her head. Her father-in-law and husband were sweating anxiously, but she still felt that she was right.

Fang paused for a moment and apologized softly: "Of course it's not the empress's fault. Didn't the concubine tell the lord's words to the empress last time? It just happened to be so coincidental, and there is nothing I can do about it. The empress can't say anything about it." Is it the emperor's fault? The concubine also knows that the empress has been wronged this time, but if she doesn't bow her head now, it will be even worse when things really go wrong."

Seeing that the queen was still angry, Fang knew that such persuasion would not work, she took the handkerchief and pressed the corner of her mouth and said: "Listen to the master... what the father-in-law means is that those few people are not safe now, the queen If you feel powerless, it is better to promote a few good-looking and well-behaved girls to win the emperor's heart."

Hearing this, the queen almost smashed the teacup by mistake, frowned and said, "You want me to use others to invite pets?!"

"Your Majesty's redemption." Fang hurriedly stood up and apologized, "My Majesty, don't worry, this is nothing new... Don't say that every palace empress always picks a few girls with good looks and no family background to put in her palace, even outside. In a small household...there are always cases where the wife of the main house puts a few girls in her room, since the empress can lead the harem, she is naturally tolerant."

Empress Feng took a deep breath and shook her head for a while: "My palace...my palace and the emperor are more than that."

Fang said softly: "The meaning of the father-in-law... is nothing more than a precautionary measure. The empress, the father-in-law and the master are all men. They don't understand, but the concubines understand the heart of the empress. They come to the main room to take concubines for their husbands. Others will praise the virtuous wife of the main house, but which woman doesn't understand, it's not a last resort, and it's not because of the reputation of that trouble, who is willing to pay for her husband? The concubine also persuaded the master, but the master said... I'm afraid that one day Which one does the emperor suddenly favor? As long as it can enter the harem, who has no family background? Instead of this, it is better for the empress to choose one for the emperor herself. Downstairs, it's easy to handle, and..."

Fang glanced at the queen, and slowly said after deliberation: "The emperor is in his prime, and there will be more and more princes in the future, and the empress cannot guard against it."

Empress Feng closed her eyes, yes, the emperor is in his prime, but he is not young anymore.

Seeing that Empress Feng finally listened, Fang said hurriedly: "But there is no need to rush this matter. Your Majesty just watch over it slowly. The most urgent thing... is to coax the emperor's heart first, Madam, up and down. Everyone is watching you."

Empress Feng tried her best to suppress her reluctance, gritted her teeth and nodded: "Tomorrow... I will cook in person, and have someone invite the emperor to dinner."

Fang breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said with a smile: "That's it, the empress and the emperor are in harmony, and those with evil intentions will rest."

A stern look flashed in Empress Feng's eyes, and she lowered her voice and said ruthlessly: "It's all...it's all that Bairen...he first caused Hua'er to suffer that humiliation, lost his emperor's heart, and then he didn't have a head He made a fuss about Mao'er Alley, and humiliated Bengong to this point! Bengong...just wait for Bengong to have a chance, and see how Bengong repays what he gave today!"

Fang's heart was shocked, and she quickly persuaded: "Your Majesty, don't talk nonsense! Dongling Bairen is no better than others. When something like this happened, even the emperor comforted him. Father-in-law even found a lot of rare tonics in the storehouse and sent them to him. Apologizing to him shows how important he is in the imperial city, your empress must not do foolish things."

Fang's heart was worried, Mao'er Alley was obviously done by Qi Xiao, she actually knew about it, but before coming here, Feng Guozhong told her again and again, don't talk nonsense with Queen Feng, Queen Feng in recent years His temper was getting bigger and bigger, and he had no brains. Knowing the past and the future, he was going to make trouble out of control. At this critical juncture, Feng's family couldn't stand it.

Fang weighed it in her mind, Qi Xiao was more difficult to mess with than Bai Ren, so she didn't say any more boldly, but persuaded Empress Feng to leave the palace after a while.
