Chapter 126 The Queen's Guidance
"I have never been an enemy in my life. They won't team up against me, right?"
"What did the queen say?"
In her previous life, Songzhi would definitely say something like "With a great general backing you up, who dares to bully you?" and try to coax her as much as possible.
Now she knew that the queen's character was not as reckless as before and she would not listen to honest advice.
She analyzed in a low voice, from the old palace officials headed by the Empress, to newcomers such as Shen Meizhuang, Zhen Huan, and An Lingrong.
Songzhi is a bystander who can see things clearly. “Who treats the Majesty sincerely and who treats the Majesty falsely, I dare not say that I can see through it like seeing through fire, but I still have some insight.”
"There's no need to talk about Sun. She won't be able to make it big."
"Except for Concubine Qi who is confused and Concubine Duan who has a grudge, no one should be an enemy of the Queen."
Concubine Qi was not an enemy. She was holding a dart in her hand and shooting every living person equally.
Nian Shilan asked uncertainly, "What about Zhen Huan?"
At this time in my previous life, I didn't take Zhen Huan seriously, but it was she who brought me down in the end.
"Your Highness doesn't like her, I can see that. She respects and fears Your Highness, I can see that too. If I say something I shouldn't, even if Your Highness Wan is intent on being Your Highness's enemy, I'm afraid Your Highness Hui will persuade her not to do so."
"You don't understand. Mr. Hui is just following..."
Nian Shilan didn't know what words to use to describe it. She thought for a long time, "Shen Meizhuang seemed to be born for Zhen Huan. Whatever Zhen Huan wanted to do, she would follow."
If I am a love brain, Shen Meizhuang is a Zhen Huan brain.
A tool that exists to assist Zhen Huan, who can die after his role is fulfilled, and even his death serves Zhen Huan's growth.
Nian Shilan thought of a word, "tool man."
Songzhi didn't understand, "But I see that Hui Guiren is on your side, Madam. Sometimes I can even see their eyes looking at me unintentionally. There is no calculation, just admiration."
"Besides, why should your majesty be afraid of them?"
No matter how smart a person is, he or she will be limited by his or her own vision and knowledge.
Song Zhi was just a maid after all. "Your Highness is now a noble concubine, and the Nian family is behind her. How dare they go against Your Highness?"
"Don't worry, madam."
It is true that I worry too much.
At this time in the previous life, Huang Guiquan had already been punished, but now Shen Meizhuang is firmly in the position of a noble lady, Huang Guiquan is still the head of the Imperial Household Department, and Wen Yi is being well raised by Cao Qinmo.
Even Yu Ying'er became a maid, although she was not particularly favored and had even been forgotten by Lao Deng.
However, the fate of these people has indeed changed.
Thinking of Huang Guiquan, Nian Shilan couldn't help but praise him more.
In his previous life, the dog emperor pulled down Huang Guiquan and promoted Jiang Zhongmin to the position in order to please Zhen Huan. This useless guy can't even tell the difference between a luozidai.
Huang Gui is indeed very smart. He knows how to divide three hu into three parts.
One hu was given to the empress, one hu was given to himself, and the rest was divided equally among those who ascended the throne this year, and no one had any objection.
Why should we alarm the emperor for such a small matter?
Thinking of this, Nian Shilan's steps became lighter.
But she came to terms with it, while some people couldn't.
When Longkodo left, the moon was already high in the sky. The emperor lay on the bed, tossing and turning in his thoughts the same thing that Nian Shilan had said.
Even if Sun Miaoqing is not around, fate is still going on as planned.
The emperor was worried and couldn't sleep well. The next day, after meeting with the court officials, he went to the empress for breakfast.
He looked at the lotus pattern on the empress's dress and said casually, "The brocade with the inscription "Fu Shou" (meaning longevity) was presented to the empress dowager a few days ago. It was very pleasing to her."
The queen immediately understood what the emperor wanted to say?
It's really shameless. Yesterday he couldn't get off the stairs, so today he has to go find the stairs himself.
"Yes, the Queen Mother praised it highly. Sun Daying must have been influenced by his brother. When he was learning to assist in the affairs of the six palaces, he was very organized."
After observing the emperor's expression, the queen realized that she had moved the steps correctly, so she continued:
"Sun Danying did nothing wrong. The emperor confined her to her house because he wanted her to take good care of herself. It's been so long, right..."
"You are the queen, you can do whatever you want." The emperor stood up, "but you have to teach her good manners in the future."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The empress bowed respectfully and saw the emperor off. The smile on her face faded as she watched him walk away.
There is only one multiple-choice question, where would the queen be to take care of it?
I have to teach her the rules myself. Does this mean that if there are any mistakes in the future, I, the queen, will be responsible, right?
Okay, I will teach her this rule.
The guards at the gate of Siyi Academy were withdrawn, and Sun Miaoqing saw the light of day again.
She bathed and changed her clothes, and went to Louyue Kaiyun early the next morning to pay her respects and express her gratitude to the Empress.
"I should have come to thank the Empress as soon as I was released from confinement, but..."
The ancient times were no different from the modern times. There was no running water, no showers. In the hot summer, there was only a limited amount of water every day. She hadn't had a good bath for several days.
I always feel like I stink.
I was released from confinement the day before yesterday, and yesterday I took a nice bath and ate something delicious.
Today I am finally alive.
"It's okay, it's all trivial. It's pitiful that you've lost so much weight." The queen looked distressed and said, "Give me the throne."
"Thank you, Queen."
Sun Miaoqing stood up and sat down.
Jianqiu explained for the Empress, "The young lady is under house arrest, and the Empress is very worried. She wanted to visit the young lady, but the guards of Siyi Academy are all Yu Qian's men, and the Empress cannot disobey the Emperor's will."
"In order to get the young lady out earlier, the queen has been speaking well of the young lady to the emperor these days."
Sun Miaoqing knew that the Queen and Nian Shilan were mortal enemies, and the newcomers in the harem had not yet clearly taken sides.
Nian Shilan is now named a noble concubine, and the queen urgently needs teammates to deal with her.
Naturally, you have to take the trouble to get it out yourself.
"Thank you, Her Majesty. I am deeply moved and will never forget you."
She...did not doubt the Queen's words.
"That day, the incident happened suddenly, and I was caught off guard. I wanted to plead for you, but I always felt that something was fishy, and the emperor was angry. I was afraid that my advice would be inappropriate and would be more detrimental to you."
The Queen's words "strange" were intentional guidance.
Sun Miaoqing had always thought that Nian Shilan was responsible for everything. "I understand. I was also tricked this time."
"I'm glad you understand."
The queen looked at him with regret, and said sincerely, "In the harem, you need a child to have someone to rely on. But you are still young. If you take good care of yourself, you can still give birth to children for the emperor in the future."
"After a while, I will make amends for you, restore your status as a noble, and allow you to take care of the affairs of the six palaces again."
When the Queen is virtuous, she is truly virtuous.
Perhaps because she had been ignored for too many days, Sun Miaoqing actually felt a little touched.
"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."
"I feel like I have a good relationship with you, and I can't help but want to say a few more words to you. It's getting late, so you should go back and rest early. Huichun, send Sun Duying out."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Sun Miaoqing bowed and left.
Jianqiu looked through the screen window at Sun Miaoqing leaving the courtyard, "Sun Danying has been locked up for so many days, and his temper seems to have calmed down. He is not as reckless as before."
"You are young, so if you bump into the wall more often, you will become more powerful."
The Queen looked at the vague shadow on the window and thought of the confession sent by the Ministry of Punishment:
Waifuai, Hulianwang...
And what did she mean by passing through?
