Tyrant [Rebirth]

This day is not the day when the family members of Jiaofang enter the palace to pay their respects, but Concubine Li couldn't wait, so she had to pretend to be sick, and told the Queen Mother that she wanted to see her family. Yes.

Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Luo followed the letter and hurriedly changed into their dresses and entered the palace. Concubine Li saw that her mother and sister-in-law felt a little more confident, and she described the events of these days in detail. What? She came into the palace. Although it was a little different from what we had planned before, we had no choice but to admit it. I just thought it was because I had an extra arm, but mother, do you think Miss Si will help me? Put it in your eyes? In the past, my aunt was my aunt and my aunt was short, but now I don’t pay attention to me at all, what is she going to do?"

Mrs. Xu did not expect that Zhen Si did not hug Concubine Li after entering the palace. Before Zhen Si entered the palace, she could faintly feel that the girl's temperament had changed. It was indeed wronged for her to marry Chu Shaoling in the first place. Didn't really get married, now that she's in the palace, could it be that she's still holding grudges?

"Empress, please relax. Concubine Zhen still has a lot of things that she is not used to when she first entered the palace, and there are some things that you can't take care of for a while." Mrs. Xu slowly relieved Concubine Li, "Concubine Zhen is young, and her worldly habits are not good. I fully understand, I can't say it, and I want the empress to suffer some grievances."

Concubine Li became even more angry when she heard the words, and said with a sneer: "She can't take care of everything? She will go to Ci'an Palace in the morning and evening. She goes first and last at the end of the day. On weekdays, there are concubines who go to Yongfu Palace to see her. When she comes out, she I can't wait to send people to the outside of the palace gate, the etiquette is great! Such a polite person, why do you only treat me like this?"

Concubine Li was annoyed at Zhen Si, she didn't even look good at Luo Shi, she said: "This child has been kissing me all the time before, why does she seem to be a different person now when she enters the palace? Could it be that someone told her behind her back What?" Concubine Li sneered, "It was not my idea to let her marry Chu Shaoling at the beginning, your good plan made me spend so much effort for nothing, and then you sent her to the palace, I can bear it Now, she actually wants to fight against me, is she thinking of becoming a king on her own?"

Luo Shi has long been full of grievances. She was unwilling to promise Zhen Si to Chu Shaoling at the beginning, but she had been unable to speak at her husband's house and had to endure it. This sister-in-law who doesn't treat herself and her daughter as human beings, might as well count on her own daughter. Now that Zhen Si is entering the palace as a concubine, she is so favored by the emperor. It will be a matter of time before she has her own children in the future.

No one is a fool. Zhen Si's favor made Luo Shi and Li Fei's elder brother Zhen Binsi have other thoughts in their hearts. Indeed, they used to get a lot of benefits from Li Concubine, but no matter how close a sister is, she can't kiss her daughter. A son can't be closer than a daughter's son.

Luo's face was still low-browed and pleasing to the eye, and he said: "Never dare to say anything nonsense, Concubine Zhen... I don't have the guts to talk about pampering, everyone in and out of the palace does not know that the empress is the first As for the position, the rank is high, and the second prince is the emperor's favorite, no matter what the concubine Zhen can't surpass the empress."

Concubine Li listened to these words, she calmed down, stroked the jewels on her temples, and said slowly: "She is still young, do you really think that she can gain a foothold in this palace by herself? Don't come to see me now Well, when something happens and you ask me to save her, it's best not to come here. I've said everything I need to say. One family doesn't talk about two things. Mother and sister-in-law should go to Yongfu Palace in a while, and put away all these serious relationships. Tell her about it."

Xu's and Luo's nodded in agreement.

The two left Linzhi Palace and followed the eunuch to Yongfu Palace. Zhen Si didn't see Concubine Li but still wanted to see his grandmother and mother. In the side hall, Xu Shi and Luo Shi looked at Zhen Sigui, who was dressed in Chinese clothes and wearing a treasured phoenix hairpin. After saluting properly, Zhen Si calmly asked the palace servants to help him up and give him a seat.

Looking at her granddaughter, Mrs. Xu knew that it was hard to say something today, so she first asked Zhen Si carefully how she was today, etc., and then asked if she was still used to being in the palace. If you are not used to it, just look for Concubine Li, Concubine Li is your own aunt, so naturally you have to take care of her."

Zhen Si smiled and said: "Thank you grandma for your concern, now my palace is very good, the queen mother is kind, and all the sisters are willing to talk to me to relieve boredom, but there is nothing to work for Li Fei."

Mrs. Xu nodded in embarrassment, "It's fine if there's nothing to do, it's fine if there's nothing to do." Mrs. Xu used the excuse to tell Zhen Si not to have an affair with Concubine Li for a long time, but Zhen Si just didn't pick up the words, and said something. It was all blocked back, Xu was so bored, so he could only smile and said: "Your Majesty must have missed her own mother when she came into the palace, and your mother is also full of self-deprecating words to tell you, I will go outside first .”

Xu gave Luo a wink, turned around and went outside to wait.

Luo Shi hasn't seen Zhen Si for almost half a month, Xu Shi has no time to talk to her, and now there are only herself and Zhen Si in the inner room, watching her daughter Luo Shi's tears fall suddenly, and she is afraid that she will cry out and let the palace people outside Seeing the gossip about Zhen Si, she could only cover her mouth tightly, and said in a low voice for a while, "It's all my fault, I can't protect you..."

Zhen Si couldn't help but her eyes were red, she turned her face away, and said in a hoarse voice for a long while: "I don't blame mother, I know, you can't decide."

Luo Shi desperately suppressed his sorrow, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, you must not show your temper for a while, Concubine Li... is now in a fit of anger, and now Your Majesty's foundation in the palace is not stable, and there are still many things that need to be supported by Concubine Li ah."

Zhen Si sneered, and said: "Of course I know, but I still can't suppress the hatred in my heart, I... that's all, I know."

Seeing Zhen Si's relaxation, Luo Shi felt relieved, his voice was lower, and he said slowly: "First, we must deal with the concubine Li, and then... the empress must also plan for herself, the emperor's favor may not last forever. Yes, now that the emperor is in his prime, the empress should seize the opportunity."

Zhen Si nodded: "I know."

Xu Shi was still waiting outside, Luo Shi didn't dare to stay for long, and knelt down after explaining clearly, leaving Zhen Si to lean on the couch thoughtfully.

In the Council Hall, Chu Shaoling was discussing this year’s autumn harvest with the officials of the household department, and Chu Shaoyang was also listening. After discussing for a long time, everyone decided to start with this year’s autumn harvest tax. There is not enough manpower to handle the affairs, Chang Dongmao, Minister of the Household Department, said slowly: "This year is a good year, but there are several floods in the south to evade taxes. Report it properly, this is famine fighting again."

This Chang Dongmao used to be Zi Junhou's disciple, so he was very reassured about him, Chu Shaoling, and nodded: "I can't say, I have to send someone to see it in person."

Chang Dongmao frowned slightly, it was good to send someone to see it, but who to send?Chang Dongmao shook his head lightly: "I can't hold back my identity, and I'm afraid that the greedy temper will attract those moths..."

Chu Shaoling smiled lightly, before he could speak, Chu Shaoyang said first: "Brother, send me there, I will definitely check out these chores for my brother."

Chu Shaoyang had an idea in his heart, he thought that Chu Shaoling was worrying about this, and he begged his elder brother to look at him high, and he would ease the relationship between the two, besides... this is a good job for Chu Shaoyang, Chu Shaoyang is different from Chu Shaoling , Chu Shaoling is backed by Zi Junhou and the Empress Dowager’s family. If you want people, you need money. Because Chu Shaoyang is still young, he doesn’t have many supporters, and he will be hindered in doing many things. South, taxes, these two The words are all oily, and Chu Shaoyang didn't want to let go of such a good opportunity.

Chu Shaoling frowned slightly, Chu Shaoyang was afraid that Chu Shaoling would not agree, and said again: "Brother, don't worry, now that there are so many affairs in court, it's not easy for eldest brother to go there in person. Wouldn't it be nice for me to go on behalf of elder brother? What is eldest brother going to do, check What, just tell me, I will definitely do it on behalf of the eldest brother, and nothing will go wrong."

Chang Dongmao nodded secretly in his heart, Chu Shaoyang is a good candidate, but he also heard the rumors that the two princes were at odds the day before yesterday, so he shut up and dared not intervene.

Chu Shaoling still seemed hesitant, and said after a while: "Forget it, I really can't get away, so I'll let you go."

Chu Shaoyang was proud of himself, see, the eldest brother still has to compromise with himself, this is the benefit of being a direct relative, Chu Shaoyang nodded solemnly and said: "Don't worry, elder brother, I will definitely not let elder brother down."

Chu Shaoling put the letter in his hand on the desk, and said: "It's just that it will take at least half a month to go, let Wei Zhan go with him, he has just been promoted to the captain of Qingji, and it's just right to come back to escort the money."

Chu Shaoyang was unwilling to let the person that Chu Shaoling picked up with one hand go with him, and Wei Zhan was still the brother of Wei Ji, but it was not easy to refuse Chu Shaoling at this moment, Chu Shaoyang nodded and smiled: "That's very good."

Chu Shaoling and Chang Dongmao ordered the accompanying officials again, wrote the paperwork and handed it up, and just waited for the emperor Zhu to approve it. Chu Shaoling sneered at the unconcealable pride in Chu Shaoyang's eyes, let's be happy for a few days.

At noon, Chu Shaoling summoned Wei Zhan and explained the matter in detail. Fortunately, Wei Zhan was a peace of mind, and he understood without Chu Shaoling talking nonsense. He nodded: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely fulfill my mission."

Still very relieved of Wei Zhan Chu Shaoling, he chuckled lightly: "It's hard for you, after you come back this time... this official position will be promoted again, a Zhaoyong general is indispensable."

Wei Zhan quickly knelt down, and said in a deep voice, "Serve the prince, only after death, don't ask for Hongda."

Chu Shaoling smiled softly: "Get up, I know what you want, there is still half a month, you should prepare well first."

Wei Zhan nodded, looked at the hall subconsciously, Chu Shaoling smiled: "Wei Ji went to the army with Zhang Lifeng today, and he won't come back until evening, I'm afraid you won't be able to see him today, so don't worry about him, Wei Ji is doing well here. very."

Wei Zhan bowed and said, "Don't dare, it's his blessing that my younger brother can get the protection of the prince."

Chu Shaoling smiled lightly, and ordered Wei Zhan to kneel down after a few instructions.

The dinner Qianwei came back, and he took a bath before coming to greet Chu Shaoling. Chu Shaoling asked the imperial dining room to add a dish of sauced beef and a dish of stewed hooves. Among the beef, the taste is very good. Wei Ji likes to eat it, and he happened to be hungry, so he ate three bowls of round-grained rice with sauced meat. Chu Shaoling saw that his food was delicious, and he also got a lot of food, so he chuckled: "Eat slowly." , could it be that you didn’t eat in the army at noon?”

Wei Ji smiled: "I ate it, but I didn't stop in the afternoon. General Zhang took me to practice troops, and the formation of troops was indeed clearer than what was stated on paper..."

Chu Shaoling patiently listened to Wei Ji talking about military affairs, and asked him a few words from time to time, and tested him. When the two of them had dinner, it was already Xu o'clock. down.

It was still hot in the imperial city, and there were several basins of ice in the dormitory of Bitao Court, the inner room was cool and comfortable, Wei Ji was tired all day, now curled up in the fluffy and thin quilt, he couldn't help rubbing against it, Chu Shaoling Looking at Wei Ji's appearance, he smiled lightly and said: "You go to the army, but let me stay in the palace for a day by myself."

Wei Ji pursed his lower lips. Although he didn't want to say it, he also thought about it after not seeing Chu Shaoling for a day. Seeing Chu Shaoling now felt warm in his heart, and leaned against Chu Shaoling. Chu Shaoling held Wei Ji in his arms and kissed him. He touched and rubbed Wei Ji's back lightly, without lust, but made Wei Ji's comfortable bones weak, Wei Ji also tentatively stroked Chu Shaoling's body, and the two of them kissed for a long time before falling asleep.
