Chapter 974: On a par

"The queen mother, Concubine He and Concubine Li are here."

Dan'er entered the dormitory to say goodbye, Queen Zhou was sitting on the edge of the bed watching the child sleep, and suddenly heard Dan'er's announcement, she smiled and shook her head.

A helpless face.

Dan'er smiled when she saw her expression, "The queen said that this concubine Li doesn't deal with concubines, but she always has to come to Niangniang together." Every time the two of them come together, they have to talk a few words, and there is no time when they are quiet and silent. ”

"That's it."

Empress Zhou's face was Buddha-like, "Why are you angry?" Wouldn't it be better if the two of them were just telling jokes to amuse the palace? Let's go, go out and meet the guests. ”

The eldest prince is still asleep, and Queen Zhou is willing to listen to the quarrel between the concubine and Concubine Li, but she doesn't want the eldest prince to listen to it.

She stepped out of the dormitory, and Concubine He and Concubine Li, who were sitting on the left and right outside, stood up, saluted, and Queen Zhou sat down at the top, and said with a slight smile: "Why did the two sisters come together?" ”

Before the concubine could speak, Concubine Li took out the package first, "The concubine heard that the queen mother loves to read recently, so she found two books and wanted to give them to the queen mother, if you can relieve the boredom of the mother, it would be good." ”

"Oh? What is the book? ”

Queen Zhou asked Dan'er to take the book, took it and flipped through it slightly, and Queen Zhou's eyes showed a little joy, "These two books are the only ones of the previous dynasty, how did you find them?" Yes, your father is the son of the country, and he must have a lot of books, and he also gave you a lot when you entered the palace. ”

"Yes."

Concubine Li smiled: "These are the two best books, the concubine is reluctant to take them out, but if it is given to the queen, the concubine is willing." ”

Queen Zhou flipped through it a few more times and handed the book to Dan'er, "You have a heart, thank you for bothering to find it." ”

As soon as she heard this, Concubine He was not to be outdone: "Concubine Li didn't bother to find books, but also bothered to take the books to the emperor for a tasting!" I don't know what the emperor said, but did he praise Concubine Li or praise the book? ”

Empress Zhou didn't say anything, just smiled.

Dan'er watched from the sidelines, and the heart really came again.

Concubine Li glanced at the concubine, "The emperor only said that the queen would like this book if he gave it to the queen, but he didn't say it." ”

"Hmph."

He didn't smile at the concubine, "It seems that the emperor likes this book, and Concubine Li is really willing to give it to the emperor, but she actually took it back and gave it to the queen." ”

When Empress Zhou heard this, she interrupted them, "For the palace or for the emperor, it's the same." By the way, why are you here? ”

She asked the concubine, and the concubine was stunned, and hurriedly said: "Didn't the queen mother say that the concubines should come to Yongshou Palace often?" The concubines came to see the eldest prince and touched the blessings of the eldest prince. ”

"You guys didn't come at the right time."

Empress Zhou smiled and glanced at the dormitory, "Chen'er is sleeping, he is almost asleep most of the day, and he doesn't even give face when the emperor comes up." ”

"Children are like that."

After saying a word to the concubine, he didn't insist on seeing the eldest prince.

She knew that the harem concubines often came to greet the queen, but it was rare to see the eldest prince, at most, she glanced at it from a distance in the nurse's arms, and the eldest prince was hugged down.

In the end, it is the eldest son of Jin Zun and Yugui, and not everyone can see and touch it.

"That's right, the Queen."

He Concubine suddenly said: "I don't know how the full moon banquet of the eldest prince is arranged, and the concubines should prepare gifts in advance." ”

She has already asked her mother's family to help search for a lovely gift, which must be both valuable and thoughtful, and must be liked by both the emperor and the queen.

I waited for the full moon banquet to take it out.

Queen Zhou smiled when she heard this: "The full moon banquet is just a small banquet in the end, Chen'er is still young, and I am afraid he can't withstand it if it is too grand." However, the queen mother said that she would go back to the palace to attend the banquet at that time, so the emperor said that it could not be done too simply. ”

Queen Zhou's words are modest, and Concubine He and Concubine Li naturally understand that how can a banquet with the Queen Mother personally present be a small banquet?

It will be lively and grand.

He Concubine couldn't help but say to Concubine Li: "Concubine Li has been sending this and that to Yongshou Palace recently, I don't know if there are any treasures to send when it comes to the full moon banquet?" ”

Before Concubine Li could speak, Queen Zhou had already said: "You don't have to send anything, just come and drink a glass of water and wine when the time comes." ”

"How's that going to work?"

Concubine Li said: "When the time comes, the concubine should naturally send a congratulatory gift to the eldest prince, this will not be bothered by the concubine, my dowry is still a little, and it will not be used up for the time being." ”

Concubine Li was sarcastically ridiculed several times, and finally fought back once.

He Concubine knew that she was sarcastic about her low dowry, and immediately rolled her eyes.

married from her father to her husband at home, and she received much more rewards than Concubine Li after entering the palace, which was enough to make up for the lack of her dowry.

Empress Zhou suddenly laughed.

Concubine He and Concubine Li both looked at her, "What is the queen laughing at?" ”

"Nothing."

Queen Zhou said lightly: "It's quite interesting to listen to you guys bickering like this, and it's boring to be confined, it's good to listen to you bickering." In the future, you can make an appointment to come to see this palace together, and it will be fun. ”

He Concubine and Li Concubine glanced at each other, each with a complicated heart.

The two of them are not happy and funny enemies, but people who really have grudges, but they can't tear their faces in front of the queen, they can only fight.

The two of them were bored for a while, and they didn't sit long before they took their leave and went back.

I don't know why, after Concubine He and Concubine Li left this time, Queen Zhou sat in place and smiled to herself for a while.

Dan'er felt strange, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Empress Zhou looked at her with a smile, "It's nothing." It's just that I suddenly remembered that when I first entered the palace, I was trembling at that time, lest I would not be able to unite the harem concubines. Later, some of the concubines were not in harmony, and I was afraid of being victimized. It's ridiculous when I think about it now. ”

Dan'er looked at the queen's calm and relaxed appearance now, and couldn't help but say: "Now Niangniang doesn't have to worry about this anymore, just watch others compete and be jealous, Yu Niangniang is fine." Slowly, we have the eldest prince and the emperor's favor, so I said that the queen mother is now standing up herself, and even Concubine Li is not an opponent. ”

Thinking of the appearance of Concubine Li and Concubine Li arguing, if "Concubine Li Xian" when she first entered the palace was still a person who could be compared with the queen, then now she can only be compared with Concubine He.

She can no longer threaten Queen Zhou, and Queen Zhou no longer needs to worry about her actions.

Dan'er looked at Queen Zhou's confident expression, and as a loyal servant, she was also happy in her heart.

Queen Zhou raised her hand and helped Dan'er to stand up, "Chen'er should be about to wake up, I'll go in and take a look at him, this abrasive little thing, always can't sleep enough, and I don't know who it looks like......"
