[Red House] Lixian

"This chamomile is not bad. It is fragrant and sweet, calms the liver fire, and nourishes the yin and body. It is indeed a tribute from Jutan." Wei Qian tasted the chamomile tea and felt admiration.

Wang Xifeng watched her drinking tea from the side, and said amusedly: "There are so many rare and expensive tea leaves in the palace, why does the empress suddenly have such an interest in drinking chrysanthemum water?"

"Suddenly I became interested, so I tried it. After all, it is a good thing for improving eyesight and clearing lungs." Wei Qianwen sat quietly in the garden, looking at the golden chrysanthemums in the garden, with a bright smile.

Her chrysanthemum tea was inspired by Isis.

The local conditions and customs in the solar system are different from those in China, but chamomile also grows there.Soaking water with chamomile has a unique flavor.

Moreover, Wei Qian's tea tasting is to drink tea with the body and the avatar.The avatar finds a secluded place to drink tea in Laluo, and the main body tastes it in Daming Palace.

Two different flavors of chrysanthemum tea bloom on the tip of the tongue, the taste...

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Xiang Ling rushed to report.

Glancing at Wang Xifeng, he hesitated to speak.

"Ma'am, I have something to do at home, I'm leaving first." Wang Xifeng was about to leave when Wei Qian pressed her down: "What's the hurry, girl Xiangling, just say what you have to say."

"Your Majesty, Ningshou Palace has come to decree, please go to the Empress Dowager to defend yourself."

"Self-defense?" Wei Qian was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the sky: "It's already afternoon, and your mother isn't going to take a nap, so why come to me when you have time?"

According to daily habits, Empress Dowager Chen should find Wei Qian to have dinner later.

"It is said... It is said that it was Wang Jieyu who reported to the Queen Mother that you were promiscuous in the court and having affairs with foreign ministers."

"Pfft—" Wei Qian swallowed the water, wiped her mouth, turned her head and asked, "Say it again?"

"Wang Jieyu said that your letter was intercepted, and the queen mother ordered you to go to the palace to defend yourself."

When the maids heard this, their expressions were horrified, and they almost couldn't hold the golden lamp, silver vase, etc. in their hands.

Yi Yun was out of breath: "Which family of rats is defiled by our mother?"

Wang Xifeng heard: "Wang Jieyu? Which Wang Jieyu? The one at Uncle's? Or the family of Wang Yushi in the capital?"

"It's the lady from the Yushi's family." Xiangling's face was flushed with anger.She was staying in the palace just now, and immediately came to Wei Qian when she heard the news.

Wei Qian had the bottom line in her heart, thought for a while, and said to Wang Xifeng: "You go out of the palace first, and I will look for you later."

Hearing the news, Wang Xifeng was in a turmoil, tried to calm down, and nodded: "That's fine, I'll go back and find the second master and the others, the empress is careful in the palace."

Wang Xifeng hurried home to find Jia Lian, while Wei Qian went to Ningshou Palace.

On the way, Wei Qian sat in the chariot and secretly calculated the truth.

It's just that the dragon's aura is concealed, and the secrets of the sky are chaotic, so it's inconvenient to investigate.

"After His Majesty's return, the dragon spirit in the harem is getting stronger. Now these people are not as conspicuous as the empress in those days. It's hard to calculate. But after thinking about it, it's nothing more than Jia and Chen."

When I came to the Ningshou Palace, I saw all the concubines sitting upright in front of the Empress Dowager.

After seeing Wei Qian, some people secretly gloated and looked at this actual mistress of the sixth palace.

She was dressed in a sky blue palace dress, with twigs of light plum, cloud patterns of two butterflies and patterns of Danniaoluan embroidered on the corners.On the head is a set of Fengyang red bead ornaments, including gold hairpins, goose yellow, earrings, bracelets, bead curtains, and forehead belts.

This set of Fengyang Chizhu jewelry was purchased from Nanyang by Weifu Trading Company.It is said that a hundred-year-old clam was found in Nanyang, and many red pearls were dug out from the old clam.

Jia Mei ordered someone to turn this set of pearls into jewelry and give it to her precious daughter.

The mother loves her, the younger brother strives for her strength, His Majesty favors her, the Empress Dowager appreciates her, and she is in charge of the Sixth Palace. She is simply the winner of a simple game version of life.

The concubines were jealous in their hearts, thinking of what happened today, they laughed secretly.

"Feng Shui takes turns, and now it's finally your turn."

"If Concubine Ning is overthrown by this incident, I don't know which family will be in charge next?"

"Tit for tat, when the queen and concubine left, it's your turn now."

Since Concubine Ning took charge of the palace affairs, the concubines rested their minds to be honest and obedient.But the thoughts of unwillingness kept accumulating in their hearts, and everyone patiently waited for the day when Wei Qian lost power.

After the queen mother died, Wei Qian was old and poor. At that time, he would have no heirs. In the end, it would be nothing more than another concubine wandering around in the palace.

The best result is to join forces with the prince and get the emperor's kind treatment.When Long Yu died, she was given the title of queen, and the prince was adopted as his adopted son.In this way, there is hope for the rest of your life.

This is also the reason for Concubine Wen and others to persuade Wei Qian to treat the prince well.As long as Wei Qian binds the crown prince, he will be carefree for the rest of his life.

"Let's fall, let's fall!" The concubines twisted their handkerchiefs, unable to restrain their excitement. "The harder the fall, the better!"

They desperately hope that Wei Qian will be smashed to pieces like the old queen.

Invisibly, everyone's fear of Wei Qian is comparable to that of the empress of the past.Currently Wei Qian is by the emperor's side, and everyone else has to give way.

Simply watching the moon with Wei Qian on the [-]th day of every month can piss off a large group of people.

On the fifteenth day of the lunar new year, according to the rules, you should go to the queen's palace.But the queen has passed away, and the ministers encouraged the emperor to make another queen.

But after looking around in the harem, many old ministers tacitly shut up and didn't say this.

Who is the Queen?

If Jia Yuanchun didn't look at the first and second families, his status would be acceptable.It's just that she has a second prince under her knees, and she can't be a successor for the sake of the prince, so as to avoid the tragedy of the rivalry between the first sons.

Therefore, the ministers of the Eastern Palace will definitely not establish Jia Yuanchun.

Apart from Jia Yuanchun, Wei Qian's concubine has the highest status.But according to the empress's usual behavior, the Minister of Rites and others tacitly reserved their opinions and avoided talking about the queen's issue.

Now that she has intervened in this way, if she becomes a queen in the future, wouldn't she be blatantly attacking others?

Situ Yun is willing to give Wei Qian all kinds of conveniences, but he absolutely cannot give the name of queen.

He is afraid of death!

Wei Qian's character is so ruthless, it's definitely not impossible to become a queen and kill the emperor by poisoning herself.

But now, Zichen Hall and Qingsi Hall are in the honeymoon period, and Situ Yun strolls around Wei Qian's place to enjoy the moon on the fifteenth of every month.Chu Yi also wanted to give Wei Qian, but Wei Qian politely refused and let Situ Yun rest alone in Zichen Hall.It can be regarded as a face for the queen, and it is also for the sake of the prince.

On the fifteenth day of the lunar month, Situ Yun didn't have much time to come to the Qingsi Palace on weekdays. Most of the time he had a meal and rested at the other concubines' place at night.

After all, Situ Yun loves beautiful sex and is happy to give Wei Qian a courtesy, but the actual "domestic needs" need to be solved by other people.

Originally, there were a few Baolins in the Qingsi Palace who followed Wei Qian. At the beginning, these people got Wei Qian's favor and let Situ Yun live in the side hall of the Qingsi Palace.The other concubines are jealous, and the palace that those low-ranking concubines most eagerly go to is the Qingsi Palace.

Everyone knows that Concubine Ning is the most generous, pushing the emperor away all day long.But the emperor cared about the friendship, so he rested in the side hall of Qingsi Hall, and had dinner with Wei Qian the next day.

When Situ Yun was the most troublesome, he would stay in the Qingsi Palace for ten days and half a month, and study the government with Wei Qian.

At first, the ministers were going to advise Situ Yun not to favor him, but then they gradually understood Wei Qian's style.

How can this be that the two palaces are intimate and only favor the sixth palace? This is clearly the two colluding together, thinking about how to deal with the foreign court in the Qing Si Palace!

All the concubines went to the Qingsi Palace, Wei Qian simply sent all the concubines away and threw them into other palaces.I live alone in Qing Si Palace.

In this way, fewer Situ Yun came, and Wei Qian could practice in peace.

Generally speaking, except for greetings and meals on weekdays, Wei Qian only occupies the few days in the middle of the month.

On the first day of the new year, I remember the queen in the Zichen Palace, and then gradually started from the low-ranking concubines, and finally lived in Wei Qian for a few days to raise my body, and then slowly went down.

Even the rain and dew, this is what Wei Qian advocated, lest a group of people in the harem torment her.

Everyone is safe, the harem is peaceful, she is also happy, the emperor is happy, the queen mother is at ease, everyone is happy.

Therefore, in the eyes of everyone in the harem, the strongest obstacle to progress is the red phoenix above the head.

With the wings covering the harem, there is no way for others to show their heads.

But the phoenix lost power, and all the birds chased after it!

Everyone was excited, even the queen mother could see that the situation was wrong.

The empress dowager was silent, sitting on the phoenix chair and looking at Wei Qian.She doesn't believe this rumor, but she doesn't know if she should help Wei Qian out now, after all...

Seeing Wei Qian approaching, Concubine Wen winked and gestured to Wei Qian with her hands hidden in her sleeves.

"Concubine Chen."

Wei Qian saw her sister's hint and knew it in her heart.But in this way, the queen mother's position is blurred.After all, outsiders don't know which side is closer between my niece and the concubine who has been close to me for many years.

But I have been prepared for a long time, even if they join forces, they can't easily deal with me.

Wei Qian smiled calmly, saying it's okay.Then he bowed to the queen mother: "Meet the queen mother."

The Empress Dowager looked at Wei Qian with a complex expression, nodded and said, "Sit down."

The word "sit down" made Chen Mengyu feel uneasy.Just looking at the relationship between the Empress Dowager and Wei Qian for many years, I am afraid that this matter will not be successful.

Jia Yuanchun couldn't restrain his excitement, and pushed Chen Mengyu to fight against Wei Qian, while shouting behind his back.But the evidence about Wei Qian was compiled by the two of them together.If Wei Qian can't be brought down, Yuan Chun must immediately get rid of the responsibilities to avoid being affected.

Xue Baochai has practiced Taiyin art for many years, and she can vaguely perceive the thoughts of the concubines in her heart.With a faint sigh, the woman sat quietly on one side like an orchid in an empty valley.

Caressing her belly, Xue Baochai carefully shrunk her figure, not intervening in the concubine's fight.

Xue Baochai's current plan is to give birth to a dragon son and live an honest life.I don't want to compete for the dragon chair, I just want to be awarded the king's branch in the future, so that I can be an old lady in the king's mansion when I am away.

Drifting with the tide, looking at the lonely mountain quietly, although there is no way to resist the system of the entire dynasty, Xue Baochai is now unwilling to put down her body and get her hands dirty.

After sitting down, Wei Qian glanced at the queen mother, saw her lips pursed, and immediately smiled and said, "I prefer chamomile these days, so I asked people to rummage it from the inner storage, and finally found some. The empress might as well often." Wei Qian Because of his noble status, the eight maids in the palace are always equipped with gold basins, silver vases and other items.

Just ordered, Yiyun teapot and silver bottle came forward to make tea for the Queen Mother.

The light green transparent tea was gently rippling, and the queen mother looked at it, with a smile on her face: "You still know Aijia."

The Empress Dowager had just sat for a long time thinking about things, she didn't drink a drop of water, her lips were dry, so she pursed her lips and moistened them.Just as someone was about to pour tea, Wei Qian immediately got everything ready.

"After all these years, you still don't know these little habits?" Wei Qian also poured himself a cup, and drank slowly: "I heard people say that chamomile improves eyesight and refreshes the mind. Didn't your mother always say that your eyes are not good recently? You might as well try it. , see if it works."

"You just toss about eating, drinking and playing all day long." The Queen Mother shook her head, but asked people to accept the tea and was ready to try it later.

Although Jutan chamomile is a tribute, scented tea has never been favored by concubines in the palace. The queen mother usually drinks green tea, and chamomile is given as a gift.

This time Wei Qian had a sudden whim and rummaged in the palace, and finally brought some from Jia's mansion.

"Then try it." The Empress Dowager said: "If it's really useful, let Dusan Palace look for it later, she doesn't like chrysanthemums the most."

The two invisibly promoted the atmosphere of drinking scented tea in the palace, and because of this, Du You was honored as "Concubine Chrysanthemum" by later generations, and was deeply loved by literati.

The two were talking about homework, and Wang Jieyu couldn't help it: "My lady, don't forget about business."

The Empress Dowager's face darkened, she glanced coldly at her, and then looked at Chen Mengyu, feeling complicated.

I sat for a long time without a drop of water, so my niece didn't know how to take care of it.

After all... After all, you can't kiss yourself!

The Empress Dowager felt complicated, and said to Wei Qian: "Come here, show Concubine Ning the things, and let Concubine Ning talk about it herself."

"However, someone has been sent to His Majesty to send a message. According to His Majesty's character, he must be furious." Jia Yuanchun thought of another hand of cards, and he was certain in his heart, sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.
