The queen mother's return to the palace is another big event for the harem.

Although the current queen dowager does not interfere in the affairs of the harem, and rarely stays in the palace, but after all, she is the mother of the emperor, and her power is no less than that of the queen. Some concubines have no way in front of the emperor, and will go to the queen mother to find a sense of existence.

If you can love the queen mother, even if you don't have holy favor, you can be considered a guarantee in this deep palace.

And don't look at the Queen Mother, although she is not in charge, but if there is an unresolved unjust case in front of her, she will still come forward to solve it. The means are very powerful and awe-inspiring.

But if you want to say that there are a few people in this palace who really like the queen mother, that's not necessarily true.

After all, she was the last palace fighting champion, not a kind person. I'm afraid she can't even remember how many lives and blood she got on her hands.

The members of the royal family have endless wealth and power, but they will never be able to enjoy the affection and warmth that ordinary people have.

The queen mother worshiped Buddha in her later years, and it was also an old age. Recalling the various things in the past, she began to feel fear and guilt. In particular, Buddhists pay attention to karma, and the queen mother is always worried that she will go to hell after her death.

When Emperor Lin first ascended the throne, she actually wanted to stay in the harem to help. After all, she understands what kind of storms these women can make, and with her in charge, the concubines can always be more peaceful.

But it was probably the emperor who had enthroned her greatest wish, and as soon as the whole person relaxed, she began to dream of those who died at her hands that year, and it was scary to sleep at night.

Finally, after listening to the advice of the eminent monk, she relentlessly moved directly to Mount Wutai, where the Great Buddha sits. I don’t know if it was really useful or for psychological reasons. She really stopped having nightmares, so she gradually settled down in Mount Wutai and devoted herself to worshiping the Buddha to offset her sins.

When she was young, she was beautiful and very flamboyant. Now that she is old, her skin is slack and her facial features look very prominent, especially her cheekbones are high, showing a bit mean and sharp look, which makes people feel scared at first sight. .

The Queen Mother remembered that she had scared her little grandson to tears back then. She cried as soon as she hugged her, which made the concubines panic.

Later, the grandchildren gradually grew up. Although they stopped crying, they were respectful and awe-inspiring in front of her, and they were not close to her at all.

It seems that this is also her life, old age can not enjoy the blessing of children and grandchildren.

However, after so many years with the ancient Buddha of Qing Deng, the Queen Mother also looked at it, but she did not take it to heart. After a long journey, I finally returned to the long-awaited palace.

Naturally, Emperor Lin brought a group of concubines, princes and princesses to greet him. When the Queen Mother got off the carriage, she glanced at it and found that her little grandchildren had grown a lot taller.

It's just that the fourth child and the prince stood next to the little girl who was born to her. She was the shortest among all the children, and there were two tugs on the top of her head. She was looking at her secretly with a pair of smart eyes.

The other grandchildren all lowered their heads and lowered their eyes, looking respectful, only she seemed not afraid of anything. When she met her gaze, she ducked back like a frightened little animal, but there was no fear in her eyes. , only curious.

The queen mother thought, is this the little five mentioned in the emperor's letter?

She didn't have time to take a closer look, and everyone saluted one by one. The queen mother was old and happy, and traveled a long distance. After she was finished receiving the ceremony, she returned to the Yiqing Palace with a sore back. She gave an order that there is nothing to ask for peace of mind, so as not to worry people.

She just returned to the palace today, and she was physically tired. Naturally, everyone did not dare to offend her. If there was anything, she would wait until later. After receiving it, they went back separately.

Lin Jingyuan accompanied Lin Feilu back to the Ming Palace, and he broke a flower branch and danced in his hand.

Lin Feilu said, "No."

Lin Jingyuan was not convinced: "Why not! There are none of us in the younger generation who are not afraid of her. If you don't believe me, ask the eldest brother!" He called out to Lin Ting who was walking in front, "Eldest brother! Are you also afraid of the emperor's grandmother? "

Lin Ting turned around and rebuked warmly: "Don't talk nonsense, the emperor's grandmother treats us very well, as a junior, I only feel awe."

Lin Jingyuan spread his hands: "Listen, eldest brother, this is a euphemism for fear."

Lin Ting smiled helplessly, but did not refute. Lin Feilu reached out and brushed over the flowers by the roadside, and said softly, "I'm not afraid anyway."

Lin Jingyuan looked at her lovingly, sighed and said, "Those who don't know are fearless."

His mind turned fast, and he quickly put the topic behind him, and said excitedly: "Xiaolu, your birthday is in two days. Guess what gift I have prepared for you?"

Lin Feilu thought about it seriously: "Brush? Inkstone? Ancient book? Gilt ink?"

Lin Jingyuan: "...So these terrible things are gifts for you?"

He thought about the nine-story streamer revolving lantern in his palace that he had brought in from outside the palace with great care, and felt that this time the gift might disappoint Sister Xiaolu.

As soon as Lin Feilu saw his annoyed expression, he knew what he was thinking. He rubbed his hand over and said sweetly with his eyes bent, "I like everything that Brother Jing Yuan gives!"

Lin Jingyuan straightened his back with satisfaction. ...

Although the empress dowager had a verbal order that most people should not disturb it, but the next morning, the queen and the two noble concubines brought their children to say goodbye.

Concubine Xi is still that cold and indifferent appearance, although she has no children and no desire to compete for favor, but the Xi family is full of goalkeepers, and the Queen Mother treats her very leniently.

Lin Ting and Lin Qing are the queen mother

The grandsons I like, one is docile and the other is elegant, and both are polite and eager to learn, and can be regarded as a benchmark for the children of the royal family.

The two bowed their heads below, and stood aside, even when the Queen Mother called someone over and held hands to look at them, the two looked cautiously with their eyes down. The queen mother didn't care, and asked them to withdraw after a few words.

He also asked the Queen and the two noble concubines if there were any major events in the harem in the past year.

Speaking of major events, it is estimated that only Concubine Mei was demoted.

The queen said it briefly.

The Empress Dowager knows how much the Emperor loves Concubine Mei. She actually didn't like women like Concubine Mei. She used to be in the harem, and she didn't know how many of these weak little white flowers were killed, so when she looked at Concubine Mei, she would think of the bad things in the past.

But she couldn't stand her son's liking, and she, an old lady, didn't want to be annoying, so she didn't say much.

Now that I hear that Concubine Mei has fallen out of favor, I am quite surprised. She knew about her son's urination, and after listening to the Queen's story, she quickly grasped the key point - his appearance was ruined.

Yeah, I got it.

In the afternoon, the third concubine also brought the child over.

The former fourth concubine became the third concubine, and the queen mother felt a lot more pleasing to the eye. Lin Jiwen and Lin Jingyuan were arrogant and domineering on weekdays, but they behaved like kittens in front of the imperial grandmother, and they dared not speak loudly.

After greeting the two grandsons, the queen mother smiled and looked at Lin Nianzhi aside: "I haven't seen you for more than a year, but Nianzhi is much quieter than before. It's just that his face doesn't look very good, is his body not good?"

Lin Nianzhi looked up at the grandmother, and then quickly lowered her head: "Thank you for the concern of the grandmother, the granddaughter just hasn't rested very well recently, so it's fine."

The empress dowager said: "It's not a trivial matter to have a good rest, Concubine Hui, you should have more snacks as a mother, and then go back to the palace and call the imperial doctor to have a look, and prescribe some medicine to calm the nerves and help sleep."

Concubine Hui respectfully should be.

Among the former four concubines, the Queen Mother liked Concubine Hui the most. First, because she was the first to give birth to an heir to the emperor. Although she was a princess, she was also very likable. Second, the queen mother admired Concubine Hui's calm and low-key temperament. If there were more concubines like her in the harem, she would be more peaceful.

After Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu retired, the queen mother left Concubine Hui as usual to talk for a while.

As soon as Concubine Hui sat down, her eyes were a little red, and she said warmly, "You should come back to the palace more often. Wutai Mountain is too deserted, and there is no one to talk to with you."

The queen mother sat cross-legged on the soft couch, with a blanket on her legs, holding the beads in her hand, and said with a smile: "When people are old, they like to be quiet. Living in this palace, they feel noisy."

The two said a few words, and the queen mother asked, "Is the emperor still not going to your palace often?"

Concubine Hui lowered her eyes and smiled: "Your Majesty is busy with political affairs, and I did not go to the harem many times this year. However, if there is a sense of wisdom, His Majesty will still come once a month."

The queen mother said: "This is not bad, although Nianzhi is a princess, but as the saying goes, her daughter is caring, which is many times better than that of the fourth child. Just help."

Concubine Hui nodded yes.

She always knew what the Queen Mother liked her, and she never went overboard in her actions, and she only picked what she liked when she spoke.

The queen mother suddenly asked: "Have you seen the fifth princess?"

Concubine Hui was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "I have seen it. The fifth princess and Nianzhi are close friends, and they often come to my palace." Without waiting for the mother to ask again, she smiled and said: "The fifth princess always sends things to Yaohua Palace, what is it? Hand cream, sachets, etc. Nianzhi liked the gift from my sister, so she also gave her brocade gold and jade, and the two children are sisters." She said this very well, but the queen mother heard another layer. mean.

The five princesses gave all the little things that were worthless.

What Lin Nian knew was all precious things.

Inevitably there is a suspicion of taking advantage.

On the way back to the palace, she had already inquired clearly from the palace servants who were taking care of her. It turned out that the fifth princess was the daughter of the noble Lan who gave birth to the stupid prince. No such person has been investigated before, which shows that the fifth princess is unsatisfactory in terms of status and life in the palace.

Then it's not surprising that she pleases Lin Nianzhi.

It's just that she has such a scheming at a young age, and the Queen Mother will inevitably be displeased when she hears it. Thinking that in just one year, she would be able to jump from an unknown princess to a favorite for the emperor to hold a state banquet for her, and her eyes dimmed more and more.

Concubine Hui didn't say much. She has always been vigilant in her actions. Seeing the empress dowager's eyes overflowing with displeasure, today's goal has been achieved. After a cup of tea, he retired and left.

Having received concubines above the concubine rank today, Yiqing Palace will no longer let people in, so as not to disturb the queen mother's rest.

After dinner, the Queen Mother went out for a walk with the help of the palace servants.

At the end of spring, the palace is full of flowers and the scenery is very beautiful. I am used to seeing the deserted scene in Wutai Mountain, and I am very satisfied when I occasionally see the wealth in this world.

Passing through the Begonia Garden, I heard a quarrel, the voice was broken, it sounded a bit like the voice of a little girl.

The queen mother walked over slowly, and saw a small figure behind the begonia flower shadow, with two tugs on the top of her head, which looked familiar.

It's just that this little figure was wiping away tears at this time, burping and crying, and said intermittently in a small milk voice: "You have... you haven't listened to me for ninety-eight days, woo woo woo."

The queen mother did not know that there was someone in front of her, so she changed positions in surprise, only to see a person standing not far away, looking at the back, it was Lin Nianzhi.

Just looking at it, I heard Lin Nianzhi's muffled voice: "I didn't

Ignore you. "

The little nanny retorted her sobbing: "You have! I wave to you and you ignore me! I call you and you ignore me! You ran away when you saw me just now..."

The more she talked, the more sad she became, and finally sat on the ground, covering her face and crying.

Lin Nianzhi stomped his feet twice and had to turn around and walk back. When he came to the little girl, he squatted down and took out the handkerchief in his arms to wipe her tears: "Oh, stop crying! Stop crying... Lin Feilu! Nope! Cried!"

The crying stopped.

The little girl pursed her lips aggrievedly, raised her head and looked at her pitifully.

Lin Nianzhi's expression was extremely complicated. He squeezed the handkerchief to wipe away the tears on her face, then pulled her up from the ground and patted her ass.

Lin Feilu tugged at her cuff and said eagerly, "Sister...Aren't you mad at me?"

Lin Nianzhi said impatiently, "I'm not mad at you, I'm mad at myself!"

She looked at her with her head tilted as if she didn't understand.

Lin Nianzhi looked at her angrily for a while, and finally held her hand in discouragement: "Forget it, I'll take you back." Then he taught her: "You follow me so far, and you're not afraid of being caught by the bad guys!"

The little girl held her hand happily, her crying eyes were watery, but she didn't hide her happiness: "I'm not afraid if the elder sister is here!"

Lin Nianzhi: "Humph!"

Lin Feilu: "Hehe."

The two gradually walked away, and the queen mother stood behind the begonia flower shadow, and the corners of her lips curved up at some point.

She turned around and said to the palace servant who served for many years: "These two children remind me of my sister Ying and I." Her tone turned low, "It's a pity that sister Ying was murdered by an adulterer and went too far. morning……"

She didn't want to say more, and turned around: "Go back."
