impersonating queen

Chapter 39

Everyone was surprised by the imperial decree. It sounds a little strange, but it seems that there is nothing illegal. It's just that he was called the queen earlier.

The imperial wives of each family are caught in a tangle. In theory, when the emperor is established, they should go to pay homage. But this time the queen is a man. Is this an audience or not?

Everyone is waiting for Mrs. Zuo Xiang to give a letter of approval. Zuo Xiang's family is related to the Eldest Princess, and the Eldest Princess also wants to meet the new queen. I think we will discuss it properly.

This meeting was said to be an audience with the empress, but it actually had another meaning. After all, Shao Wangshu was the empress, and without a crown prince, logically he would have to find two more concubines for Qin Jiaqian to give birth to a crown prince.

Originally, it was up to the Empress Dowager to discuss this matter, and the Empress Dowager wished that Qin Jiaqian had no children, and assumed that this matter did not exist.

The eldest princess and the son-in-law are hard-core royalists, and they want to remind Shao Wangshu to choose two concubines when they wait for the audience.

When the news came in, Shao Wangshu had just woken up, and Qin Jiaqian was leaning on the bed to read the scriptures.

Qin Jiaqian asked: "Princess Da Chang asks you, the empress, do you want to call your wives to meet? If you want to meet, you can call now. They are waiting outside the palace."

"See you."

Qin Jiaqian was worried: "Can you handle it alone?" According to Laifu's description, Shao Wangshu himself had never faced such a complex interpersonal situation alone, especially this time he had to face a group of female relatives.

"There's nothing wrong with that." Shao Wangshu thought to himself, if the queen is rude, it's called frankness.

Just as Shao Wangshu was about to refuse, he raised his eyes and saw the little eunuch's uniform hanging beside the bed, the sleeves happened to be facing Qin Jiaqian.The wind sneaked in faintly through the gap in the open window, blowing the eunuch's clothes, and the sleeves were dangling.

Shao Wangshu:! !

It shouldn't be!If the clothes are not on the hangers, what's the matter hanging here.

How can it be hung here on the dragon bed.

Is Laifu dead?

Qin Jiaqian caught a glimpse of his eyes, his whole body seemed to be struck by lightning, Qin Jiaqian lowered his eyes, pretending not to notice.

Seeing the sleeve dangling back and forth beside Qin Jiaqian's head, Shao Wangshu was afraid that Qin Jiaqian would smell the onion water and pepper water on the sleeve, so he lifted the quilt with a "wow", held Qin Jiaqian's hand and said, "Your Majesty, this is the first time for me to be a Your Majesty is very inexperienced in summoning clan relatives for imperial orders, so please invite your Majesty's ministers."

Shao Wangshu begged: "Let's go with my ministers."

Qin Jiaqian did not expose him, "Forget it, I will accompany you there."

Shao Wangshu pulled Qin Jiaqian out without looking back, with the other hand frantically gesturing to Mingzhu behind him: Take that unlucky eunuch suit away!

On the way, Qin Jiaqian told Shao Wangshu what to pay attention to: "There is nothing to pay attention to."

Qin Jiaqian said: "You are the queen, and they are the subjects, as long as they don't violate your taboos."

Shao Wangshu felt that something was wrong. The empress dowager in the palace, the winner of the previous palace fight, had her own opinions in dealing with people. She knew what people would say and do. The relationship between in-laws, conflicts, and trivial gossip are all familiar, and he doesn't understand anything, "What if I say the wrong thing?"

Qin Jiaqian said in surprise: "The Queen will never say the wrong thing."

The mistake is that they did not understand and misunderstood.

"There are three people, please be careful." Qin Jiaqian said: "One is the granddaughter of Prince Duan, the Queen Mother appointed her to be Qin Yumi's concubine yesterday, and the other two are the niece of the minister of the Ministry of Industry and the daughter of the young supervisor of the Imperial College. The two are Qin Yumi's side concubines."

"The biological mothers of these three people are said to have given birth to six or seven children, and most of them were boys." Qin Jiaqian pointed at Shao Wangshu: "The queen mother said that extravagance and waste are not appropriate, and the wedding was not held, so she directly ordered it to be sealed. Let them bear it today." The name came to see you."

Shao Wangshu knew very well in his heart that he, the empress, had no legitimate sons, and the empress dowager wanted Qin Yumi's child to be the crown prince.

The place where the emperor and his wife met was in the Fengzao Palace where the queens of all dynasties lived.

Qin Jiaqian found the name of the palace not pleasing to the eye, "Chang it, it's called Zhangde Palace."

The royal family and imperial servants were all wearing high-grade dresses, and they had already stood in line inside, with their heads down, and when Shao Wangshu came in, they saluted in unison.

When everyone raised their heads again, Shao Wangshu wasn't the only one on the top. There was another man on Shao Wangshu's right who was dressed in casual clothes but had an astonishing aura.

The eldest princess spoke first: "Why is the emperor here?"

"Sit, auntie." Qin Jiaqian glanced over the crowd, paying special attention to the three women who were born in the face but could stand in the ranks of the prince and concubine. They must be Qin Yumi's newly married concubine and side concubine. Nothing, I have nothing to do left and right, so I will come over to have a look."

Shao Wangshu also recognized these three people. Although he was still half-baked all these years on the mountain, he had also learned something from the Great Master, and he could tell a lot from his facial features.

With just one glance, the leading Concubine Kang, the granddaughter of Prince Duan's family, was pregnant for more than two months.

She was conferred the title of Concubine Kang just yesterday, just as a prestige, and she hasn't met King Kang Qin Yumi yet.

I don't know that the queen mother is clear about this matter.

The interview process is simple, just introduce yourself, and then offer blessings and congratulatory gifts to the emperor.

After a circle of people turned around, Shao Wangshu remembered that his head was dizzy, and there were too many melons in his face. In just one or two hours, Shao Wangshu had already seen that "the daughter-in-law and the father-in-law climbed ashes and gave birth to a child", "the weak and sick are the result of being laid down by others". Poison", "In order to consolidate her status, the wife who gave birth to a daughter hugged a newborn boy and lied about twins"...

What a lot of melons.

The Eldest Princess led a girl to meet her. The girl was not wearing high-grade clothes, and Shao Wangshu was not sure about her identity.

The Eldest Princess laughed at Yan Yan: "This is the beauty that I present to His Majesty."

Shao Wangshu's smile didn't change. Judging from her face, this girl was not destined to be a concubine.

Sitting side by side with him, Qin Jiaqian couldn't see his expression from the profile, and patted Shao Wangshu's hand to signal him to feel relieved.

The eldest princess said: "Her name is Du Junshi, she is the daughter of Governor Bo Yang, she has a gentle personality and is considerate. She has long wanted to present it to His Majesty, but it is inconvenient because His Majesty is not yet married. Now it's all over." , it is just right to leave her in the palace to talk with His Majesty to relieve fatigue."

When the eldest princess said this, she never thought that Shao Wangshu would be unhappy. From her point of view, let alone a queen, even if she married a queen, there were two concubines in the palace when they got married.

The emperor has always belonged to the entire harem.As a man, Shao Wangshu must know better.

The queen mother "forgot" to make arrangements for Qin Jiaqian, and her arrangement of being an aunt was not considered presumptuous, and even thoughtful.

"Du Junshi, the daughter of the people, kowtows to His Majesty and the Queen."

Du Junshi was wearing a dress made of Sichuan brocade, embroidered with the most fashionable patterns, her hair was neatly coiled, decorated with two gold-plated butterfly tassel hairpins, the tassels fluttered during the salute, and the butterflies spread their wings under the pull of the tassels. Very eye-catching.

Everyone looked at Du Junshi's eyes, many of them were full of envy and respect. In the absence of a son-in-law, the eldest son will be the prince. If she is the first to give birth to the prince, then the position of the Queen Mother will be indispensable in the future.

"Thank you for my aunt's arrangement." Qin Jiaqian held Shao Wangshu's hand, opened his fingers, and interlocked with Shao Wangshu's fingers. Qin Jiaqian's hand was wide and warm, and the heat was continuously transmitted from Qin Jiaqian's hand to Shao Wangshu's. Therefore, it is enough to have the queen alone."

"This person..." Qin Jiaqian seemed to say to the eldest princess, but also said to everyone: "Auntie, let's take it back. Miss Du is beautiful, intelligent, dignified and generous. I will find a good home for her."

The eldest princess stared at Qin Jiaqian in a daze, savoring the phrase "one queen is enough", and said in a broken voice, "Don't be willful!"

They only thought that Qin Jiaqian still wanted to have their own children, so they didn't express their opinions on Qin Jiaqian's establishment as the queen. Looking at Qin Jiaqian's statement today, it seems that they no longer want concubines or heirs.

Shao Wangshu looked at Qin Jiaqian.

Qin Jiaqian said: "That's what I mean, and I understand my aunt's heart. After a hard day, go back and rest earlier."

"Laifu, bring the pair of emerald bracelets that I bought this year to my aunt. As soon as the bracelets came in, the queen said that the emerald color is good, and only my aunt's beauty is worthy of it. Someone left it for my aunt. My aunt happens to be here today, so let's take it along the way." Qin Jiaqian said lightly.

Naturally, Shao Wangshu had never seen Laoshizi Jadeite. He was a big man and was not interested in bracelets. The above were all made up by Qin Jiaqian.

Although Qin Jiaqian did not want to accept the concubine, but what the eldest princess did wholeheartedly was for Qin Jiaqian's good. Qin Jiaqian didn't want to hurt her face and heart, and he didn't want his relatives who treated him well to be prejudiced against Shao Wangshu, so he just found a reason to ease the relationship .

Shao Wangshu continued: "Your Majesty always talks about the heroic appearance of the Eldest Princess who went out with the son-in-law back then. Wang Shu has long admired the Eldest Princess, but he has never had the chance to see her. Now that we are a family, we should move around more. To give Wang Shu a chance to learn from her aunt."

The eldest princess was taken aback for a moment, she thought Qin Jiaqian was fooling her with the first sentence about the emerald bracelet, when Shao Wangshu said this, the two looked at it together, and there was a bit of sincerity.

He was the first to show his favor, and he couldn't take it too seriously. The Eldest Princess said: "It's just relying on the strength of the soldiers and horses to show off bravely. It's nothing. If the Queen wants to hear about the battlefield, I can go back to the barracks to search for it." , find something interesting, and tell the queen later."

Sending off the eldest princess, Shao Wangshu felt a headache from staying in Zhangde Palace, and wanted to go back to Hanzhang Palace. On the way, he told Qin Jiaqian that Princess Kang was pregnant and might not be Qin Yumi's child, and said worriedly: "I don't know the Queen Mother Whether you know it or not, but after all, the Empress Dowager is bound to win the crown prince, even if you know it, you have to pretend not to know it."

Shao Wangshu tentatively said, "Your Majesty, why don't you accept two concubines?"

Dare to try.

Qin Jiaqian stopped, "You really think so?"

Shao Wangshu is hard to talk, to be honest, Qin Jiaqian has no memory now, if he thinks it should be taken for granted, if he doesn't mind, he will take two, then he will shoot himself in the foot; if he minds, stop Seeing that the emperor has heirs, he seems to be ignorant of the general situation.

Zhangde Palace was not far from Hanzhang Palace, and he entered Hanzhang Palace while talking, and Shao Wangshu saw the eunuch's uniform dangling beside the bed at a glance.

Shao Wangshu winked at Mingzhu: Didn't I ask you to take it away? Why did you confiscate it?

Mingzhu also winked: Your Majesty won't let me!

Qin Jiaqian smiled, "My queen, Mingzhu, what are you two talking about?"

"No, it's nothing." Shao Wangshu played sloppy eyes: "I wanted to surprise you and asked them to prepare a cup of lotus seed soup that His Majesty likes to drink, but I didn't see it when I came back, so I asked why. Mingzhu returned to the minister, the taste of lotus seeds in this season generally."

"So that's how it is," Qin Jiaqian nodded, "I thought you asked her why the eunuch clothes haven't been confiscated yet?"

Shao Wangshu's legs softened, and he knelt on the ground: "I'm wrong."
