Chapter 149 The Puppet Empress (42)
Hua Qing couldn't deny Yan Zhen's accusation.He cast his eyes on a man of a different race and a beautiful woman on the street, and said with a smile on his mouth, "Those who know me are junior sisters."

Yan Zhen raised the corners of his mouth in disdain, "Brother, tell me the truth why you are here? Could it be that someone has offended you?"

Hua Qing looked at the other party in confusion, strongly disagreeing with the other party's point of view, and asked: "Is my senior brother so unbearable in your eyes? The so-called respect for teachers, have you forgotten what master taught me?"

"It's the master who respects, and the morality is important, how old are you, brother?"

"Junior sister's words are different. Master said that junior sister should listen to senior brother's words. What's more, respecting master also has the meaning of senior brother."

"Who said that?"

"Sage Confucius and Mencius said."

"I do not know how?"

"Because you often play truant from school and love to play with guns and swords. Isn't it immoral for a woman like you?"

Yan Zhen was silent, and she chose not to speak anymore, because this person thinks that the more you talk, the more mistakes you make, although sometimes you don't know where you are wrong.

"Concubine Zhen, please stay."

Zhen Ji turned her head and saw that it was the servant girl next to Princess Anning, so she followed her to the princess' bedroom.

Because An Ning was grounded by the Emperor Jin, she was not allowed to leave the bedroom, so she had to ask the palace maid to invite Zhen Ji.

As soon as Zhen Ji entered the palace gate, she saw Princess An Ning leisurely making tea as if nothing had happened, and then said: "The princess is so elegant."

Princess An Ning said in a brisk tone, "Thanks to the concubine for her great blessing." The movements in her hands never stopped.

Zhen Ji's eyes flashed, she sat on the soft bed at the invitation of the other party, and took the tea from the other party.Nowadays, refined scholars in the Jin Dynasty consider brewing tea to be an extremely elegant thing, and even among the common people, brewing tea is an indispensable way to treat guests with respect, especially for the nobles in the palace.

This is the so-called fashion, presumably the tea merchant is earning a lot of money, so she has to give some to her so that she doesn't suffer a loss!The so-called economy is the lifeblood of a country, otherwise people eat and drink whatever they want.Especially in today's Jin Dynasty, because of the desertion in political affairs, constant wars, natural disasters and man-made disasters, and the empty treasury, the so-called royal family maintains luxury, but it is only superficially rich. Using power for personal gain, but also doing it impeccably.Since Qu Zhen's fall, the money was transferred quickly, even Sima Yan was caught off guard and could not catch up with this matter.

Zhen Ji knew from An Ning that everything An Ning did was manipulated by Hua Qing with one hand, so that she shouted "stop the thief" with one hand, which was a cover-up.This Hua Qing really doesn't need her protection, but she has to be like a grandson!It's not a happy result by any means.

After returning to Chen Palace, she received an incredible news, that is, Aguda asked Sima Yan for a marriage, and the person for the marriage was actually the second princess Sima Yu'er.

When Zhen Ji got the news, she felt that the matter must not be as simple as it appeared on the surface.I am afraid that Hua Qing's handwriting is among them.

"What?" Sima Yuer was stunned when she heard the news.

Seeing the other party's face turning pale, Xi'er couldn't bear to reply again: "I heard from others that Aguda Shanyu asked His Majesty to give you the princess to him."

"Then what does Your Majesty say?" Sima Yuer grabbed the other person's shoulder excitedly, this was the first time she panicked.

"The slave does not know."

Sima Yu'er sat down in a trance, and saw a palace maid on the side coming to say that Concubine Zhen had arrived.

As soon as Zhen Ji walked into the hall, she saw Sima Yuer sitting upright, with a hint of confusion in her eyes, and she smiled appropriately when she saw her.

"Concubine Zhen, Yuer was about to ask Suzhen what happened?" Sima Yuer asked seriously.

Although Zhen Ji wondered why the other party asked such a question, she answered truthfully: "It is a good ending in the end that the lovers will get married in the end."

"Where is Princess Tianxiang?" Sima Yu'er continued to ask.

"Princess Tianxiang lost her memory in the end." Zhen Ji sighed, "It's a pity that a piece of true love was paid by mistake and wasted her life. If Suzhen hadn't disguised herself as a man, she would not have ended up like this. The so-called There is a destiny, but there is always a reason. However, there is a common saying in our Xiangtu, which is that anger cannot fight. If Princess Tianxiang faces it bravely and takes the initiative to seize her own destiny, maybe there will be a good ending."

Sima Yu'er muttered to herself: "Really? It's just that I can't help myself in the royal family." After speaking, she lowered her head, making people wonder what to think.

Zhen Ji said solemnly: "But if you know the result but don't seize the opportunity to work hard, wouldn't it be a waste of life? Is it true that the fate of a woman depends on others? Are you willing, Yu'er?"

Xi'er on the side began to chime in and said: "Princess, I feel that what the concubine said is right, maybe your Majesty has not made a decision yet, if the princess doesn't say it now, wouldn't that mean marrying into a place of bitter cold and suffering? The princess is a daughter How can I suffer like this? It is obviously the fault of Princess An De and Princess An Ning, but in the end it is the princess who suffers? It is really unfair. Your Majesty has a deep relationship with the princess, and I will definitely say good things to the princess. of."

Zhen Ji glanced at Xi'er meaningfully, and said, "Yu'er, why is this slave and maidservant looking so strange to me? Where's Dong'er?"

Sima Yu'er's complexion changed slightly, and she said in a low voice, "Dong'er suffered a serious illness at night and has already passed away."

"Ah? How could this be? Sigh! In fact, I really like this girl, she is very smart." Zhen Ji saw that Sima Yuer's face was not right, so she immediately changed the subject, "Fortunately, I thought the matter was over. After settling down, let's take a quick look. This palace is reluctant to part with Yu'er. Apart from the queen mother, you are the only one who is close to this palace. In the future, His Majesty will also elect a concubine. Presumably, His Majesty will have a successor soon. The palace also has grandchildren to play with. After all, having successors is the only way to show that I will last forever."

"Thousands of generations?"

Seeing that the other party was surprised, Zhen Ji smiled and said: "Of course. In my dynasty, the first emperor had the fewest male heirs, and it was also because of the deep relationship between the first emperor and the empress dowager. I like to hear anecdotes and strange things, especially when I hear that I don't know what they are. In which dynasty, there was a powerful woman who not only became the queen, but also almost killed all the princes for the sake of power, even her own grandson. When she became a queen herself, she even messed up the court and messed up the harem. The so-called injustice The lower beam is crooked, so her daughter has the ambition to become emperor, and she also imitates her mother emperor in terms of men and women."

"What happened in the end?"

Zhen Ji could see the eagerness of the other party, and was about to say something when Xi'er on the side jumped ahead and said, "Then it will definitely end badly. After all, the prince is supposed to inherit the throne. If the prince's daughter succeeds, wouldn't that cause more trouble?" Disaster? If the emperor knew that it would cause such a consequence, he would regret it to death."

"Then what if they have unavoidable difficulties?" Sima Yuer wanted to defend them.

"Hmph! If there is any real difficulty, it is also the desire for power. Otherwise, why would there be so many killings? It is orthodox for male heirs to inherit the throne, so that the blood of the royal family can be continued. And the harmony of the harem and concubines will allow the court to The officials in the middle are more dedicated to serving His Majesty."

Zhen Ji's words gave Sima Yu'er a complete epiphany.She tightened the handkerchief, and her bright eyes showed unprecedented determination.Maybe she knows what to do.
