The concubine is so charming

71 Chapter 71

The Empress Dowager just spoke to Xie Wanning alone, and no one else in the warm pavilion heard her except Lanyi.

When she returned to Jingyu Palace, she didn't even have time to change her cloak, leaving only Xie Lan to accompany her into the bedroom, and hurriedly said what the Queen Mother had said.

Xie Lan had a kind smile on her face, and she took off her cloak while listening carefully.

"Your Majesty, please sit down and have a sip of tea first." After she finished speaking, Xie Lan helped her to sit down on the imperial concubine's couch.

Recently, she has been running outside all day, but she looks much healthier than before, her hands and feet are warmer, and she seems to be less and less afraid of the cold, Xie Lan thinks this is a good thing.

Xie Wanning took a big sip of tea, and then asked, "Mom, what do you mean by this? She is becoming more and more incomprehensible."

Xie Lan waited for her to sit securely, then moved the embroidered pier to sit beside her, and wiped hand cream on her hands: "Mother, don't you understand what the Queen Mother means? The Queen Mother is showing favor to Your Majesty through you. "

"I know this, and His Majesty knows it well."

Xie Lan smiled, and the lines at the corners of his eyes were traces of time: "During these years, do you think that His Majesty has no grievances in his heart? There must be. He first became a great treasure, but was suppressed by the Empress Dowager with most of the power in his hands. We couldn't see how difficult it was. At that time, the Empress Dowager might not have dared to let go, or she might have been afraid that he would turn his back on her. After two or three years of observation, I found that His Majesty is still very respectful to her, and the Empress Dowager also slowly let go hand?"

Xie Wanning listened quietly to her.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager said this through you. One is to show her favor to His Majesty, and to tell him that she really does not want to make Wang's daughter as queen. Isn't the other one also showing her favor to you? Your Majesty has not yet made a clear intention to establish a queen. After that, Ke nodded and agreed to make you a noble concubine, which shows that you must be different in His Majesty's heart."

Xie Wanning said thoughtfully: "No matter what outsiders think of her, it is harmless to her. The most important thing is Your Majesty, and the concubines in His Majesty's harem?"

Xie Lan nodded, and took Xie Wanning's hand on her knee: "Madam, maybe the queen mother just said that, we just understand what she means, and we can't think about extra things."

For so many years, Xie Lan has been sincere to Xie Wanning. She is afraid that she will think about it again and again. If she has expectations that she shouldn't have, her good life will be difficult again.

Fortunately, Xie Wanning herself is a sober person, she pulled herself back in time, and was able to get along with His Majesty calmly, and never got entangled in things that shouldn't be entangled again.

that's enough.

Xie Wanning felt the warmth in her palm, and smiled at her: "Mom, am I such an easily shaken person? I was just afraid that the Queen Mother would dig a hole for me to jump into. If I don't want to be thorough, I will always feel uneasy. .”

Xie Lan heaved a sigh of relief, got up and said with a smile: "That's good, what the Empress Dowager said, you can tell your Majesty half of it when you come back, he knows the Empress Dowager better than you."

"What mother said is true." Xie Wanning nodded thoughtfully.

However, King Jing's marriage has not yet been resolved, Xie Wanning thought of another way, and then went to busy with other things.

One day later, when she went to the Empress Dowager's Palace, Xie Wanning was still as usual, well behaved, gentle and generous.

"Your Majesty, the concubine went back and thought about it. Since the Empress Dowager wants to be more cautious about King Jing's marriage, why don't you wait for King Jing to come to Beijing later and ask him how he is? After all, he is the one who marries a wife. As long as he likes it, the Queen Mother will do it I will also like it, so that the two can live in harmony, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can be properly handled."

Concubine Jing is the birth mother of King Jing, and the Queen Mother is the first mother of King Jing. If the king is willing and the queen mother agrees, the marriage will naturally be harmonious and smooth. With King Jing working hard, it will not be a problem for Concubine Jing.

Xie Wanning's sentence about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a pun, but she didn't single out the Queen Mother.

The Empress Dowager laughed, turned her head and joked with Lan Yi: "I said yesterday that the Imperial Concubine is a smart person, she must be able to come up with good ideas for an old woman like me, isn't she?"

Lanyi also echoed: "What the empress said is that the imperial concubine is ice-snow and smart, she is very desirable."

Xie Wanning was blushed by the two of them, and she stumbled to learn how to act like a baby: "Your Majesty!"

The Queen Mother laughed even more.

The atmosphere in the warm pavilion was just right, but suddenly a familiar voice came from outside: "Why is the mother so happy?"

The brocade gauze curtain was lifted from both sides, and a handsome face came into everyone's eyes, but it was Xiao Mingxiu who hadn't seen him for a long time.Xie Wanning hurriedly stood up and wished him well: "Your Majesty, Wan An."

Xiao Mingxiu helped her elbow, and before she had time to salute the Queen Mother, she heard the Queen Mother say: "Your Majesty, there is no need to salute too much, sit down quickly."

,all in

So he took advantage of the opportunity to sit next to Xie Wanning, and said to the Queen Mother: "I'm busy with things ahead, I haven't seen the Queen Mother for a few days, how is the Queen Mother recently?"

Seeing him, the Empress Dowager looked happier. She looked at Xiao Mingxiu's expression carefully, but said: "I live in peace in the palace all day, and with the concubine Xieyuhua by my side, naturally It's very good. It's just that the emperor looks very tired, is it because he is disobedient at night and stays up late?"

Xiao Mingxiu just laughed, and begged for mercy naturally: "My son is wrong, please don't be angry with the queen mother.", all in

The queen mother sighed: "You, you have the same temperament as your father, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and you can't rush everything."

Xie Wanning also persuaded him to say this two days ago, and Xiao Mingxiu laughed when he heard the words: "The imperial concubine also said the same thing at first, but my son looked at the stacks of memorials and couldn't sleep until he finished approving them."

The queen mother was slightly taken aback, glanced at Xie Wanning who was sitting beside her smiling and silent, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

She always said that Xiao Mingxiu was like the late emperor, after all it was not nonsense.He has a resolute personality, can endure but also can be ruthless, has never been diligent in political affairs, and only picks out the women in the harem who he likes.

Those who can't get into his eyes, I'm afraid it will be hard to get in for the rest of their lives.

It's just... the queen mother looked at Xiao Mingxiu's smiling eyes, and was a little dazed. He might be better than his father in some aspects, if not worse.

The Empress Dowager had something on her mind, but her face was still kind: "You see, both of us mothers are talking about you, so naturally it's your fault."

Xie Wanning absolutely couldn't bear the word "mother and wife", she immediately stood up and bowed in fear and trepidation: "Your Majesty's diligence is naturally a great fortune for the country."

This has become Xie Wanning's catchphrase, when something happens, she will always be right.

The Queen Mother couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud: "What a clever little ghost."

Xiao Mingxiu also smiled softly: "Queen Mother, after this busy period is over, I will have a rest, and this will definitely not be the case anymore."

In front of Xie Wanning, the Empress Dowager didn't hide much, but she was a little sincere: "When your father was here, you always refused to listen to my advice, and it was too hard to come early... You should be good and stay healthy." Kang is the best."

Speaking of the former emperor, Xie Wanning immediately lowered her head, and Xiao Mingxiu was somewhat sad, and assured the Queen Mother: "I will definitely step up the implementation of the New Deal, and I will no longer work as hard as I do now."

The Empress Dowager then gave up, saying that he would not listen, and insisted on moving the late emperor out.

Xiao Mingxiu sat for a while, then got up to leave, Xie Wanning didn't want to stay any longer, and left with Xiao Mingxiu.

The Empress Dowager laughed and said: "The emperor should rest more when he is free, and don't worry about me often."

Xiao Mingxiu and Xie Wanning saluted her before leaving the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

I didn't think about it, but when I was talking for a while, there were snowflakes outside.

This is the first snow in Shengjing this year. Looking up, the snowflakes are scattered like wild cherry blossoms in spring, and there is a hint of coldness and chill in the beauty.

Xie Lan stood on the porch, fastening a cloak on Xie Wanning.The hood of her cloak was made so large and thick that it hid her face well.

Xiao Mingxiu's chariot has a generous canopy, and he usually only wears a sable hat, and he never feels how cold it is outside.But now seeing that Xie Wanning was wearing both a cloak and a hand stove, he couldn't help saying: "If you don't want to go back in my imperial chariot, you'll be on the way anyway."

Xie Wanning didn't come back to her senses, she opened her mouth and said, "That's so embarrassing."

Xie Lan tugged at her sleeve, and Xie Wanning finally came to her senses, and quickly said: "This is against the rules."

Xiao Mingxiu gave her a funny look, pointed to the thin and narrow canopy on her walking chariot, and then pointed to the one on his imperial chariot: "It's so cold, why don't you sit?"

Xie Wanning was shaken all of a sudden.

She is such a person who is afraid of the cold, sitting in the chariot under the snow for two moments in winter is really tormenting, but she doesn't have the guts to sit on Xiao Mingxiu's imperial chariot, and she feels like a battle between heaven and man for a moment.

Xiao Mingxiu was not in a hurry, so he let her hesitate there.

In this moment, the snow fell more and more, and the golden glazed tiles on the wall of the Vermilion Palace were covered by white snow in an instant, adding some rare beautiful scenery to this majestic and magnificent Changxin Palace.

Xie Wanning had never hesitated like this before, she was torn in her heart repeatedly, and she stood under the eaves of the Compassionate Ning Palace and became dazed.

Xie Lan was about to remind her, but suddenly heard Aunt Lanyi's voice behind her: "The queen mother asked if there is anything else?"

This time Xie Wanning came back to her senses, her face was suddenly stained with rouge, almost as red as the palace wall.

Xiao Mingxiu waved his hand at Aunt Lanyi, took Xie Wanning's hand, and led her to the imperial chariot.

In the ice and snow, the two of them stepped on the palace road that had already touched the snow, but they didn't feel slippery.

"Anyway, you're wearing a cloak, no one can tell who it is," Xiao Mingxiu smiled and helped her onto the imperial chariot, "What are you afraid of, who dares to gossip if you are seen?"

Now she is the most favored imperial concubine, what's wrong with sitting in a chariot?Normally, in Qianyuan Palace, she is still domineering, so why didn't she know how to be afraid at that moment!

Xie Wanning sat beside him, with a tight canopy on her head and his warm body beside her.Even though it was snowing, it didn't feel cold at all.

"The concubine is not afraid that outsiders will say about your majesty."

She may not be afraid of these gossips, but she is worried that others will say that he has been so sleepy and sleepy, if she is only allowed to ride on the imperial chariot, he will be rejected again, it is simply unreasonable.

Xiao Mingxiu squeezed her hand, felt the warmth in her palm, and felt a little at ease.

"It's hard for outsiders to know about the things in the palace. Maybe it was possible in the past, but not in the future." Xiao Mingxiu said firmly.

Xie Wanning turned her head to look at him, but she could see determination and cruelty in his eyes.

"In the future, I will put the affairs of the palace in your hands, and I will feel more at ease." Xiao Mingxiu said.
