Chapter 234 Queen
"Empress, I can understand your feeling of guilt for that child, but the situation is critical now. If we cannot remove this only weakness, the officials may take advantage of it, and all our previous efforts may be lost. All the efforts made before the meeting are in vain," Leng Xiang said.
It's not that the Queen didn't know this. On the contrary, the Queen knew it very well and understood the purpose of Leng Xiang's suggestion to her. The journey of the Queen and Lengxiang was actually not easy. As a woman, it was very difficult to have a place in such a feudal society. In today's male-dominated society, it is not easy to reach today's status step by step, so she values her status more than anyone else and will never allow her hard-earned rights to be taken away by others.
But although the queen knew this very well, she could never be cruel to her children.
"Lengxiang, you don't have to persuade me anymore. I have made up my mind, and you will not change what I have decided. You know this." He closed his eyes after changing his number, thought for a while, and answered like this.
Leng Xiang was helpless: "I know that the Queen is very guilty about the child, and I also know that Queen Mother, it is difficult for others to persuade you to change your decision. But I still want to persuade you again, time will pass, and great achievements will surely be made." Be cautious.”
"Okay, you really don't need to say more. I have made up my mind. I will never do that kind of thing." The queen couldn't help but frowned. She already felt a little bored. "I won't do it. I don’t allow you to do it either. Lengxiang, I want to warn you very seriously not to have those evil thoughts. I said you are not allowed to do anything to that child. I will not do it, and you are not allowed to do it either.”
Leng Xiang was helpless: "The queen and the slave know it. Don't worry, I won't make any arbitrary decisions."
The queen and Leng Xiang talked about other things and suppressed this topic for the time being.
On the other side, the official family mentioned by the queen and Lengxiang was in a state of confusion.
"Official, do you think my concubine's rouge looks good today?"
"Official, what do you think of the hairpin on my concubine's head?"
"Guanjia, what's wrong with you?"...
Compared with the quiet time in the Queen's and Lengxiang's house, the situation in the Guan family is very complicated and difficult to describe.
The official rested his forehead tiredly. He was surrounded by a group of warblers, chattering at him non-stop.
"Okay, okay, can you guys calm down for a while? I have a splitting headache today, and I'm feeling very uncomfortable. You guys are all talking here, and it's making my head hurt. Look, look, look like this , what kind of loss do you still say? You are all my treasures. You keep saying that you want to be considerate of me, but are you so considerate? If you are so considerate, then you should take away your magical powers as soon as possible. I really can't stand it. He opened his mouth and scolded them.
The Yingying Yanyans immediately lowered their voices, and each other was a little at a loss. They looked around awkwardly, not knowing what to do.
"Guan Jia, what's wrong with you today? Why are you so angry? This was not the case in the past! The country has always been kind to us sisters, why are you suddenly so angry today? Did someone provoke you?" Someone has the courage to do so. The eldest concubine came up to her. This loser was recently canonized. She was a person sent by the queen. The main character was bold, quick to do things, and unexpectedly very popular with the officials. The official sighed: "Well, there's nothing to worry about. It's just that I haven't had a good rest these past few days and I have a headache. I didn't mean to scold you, but your voices are really too noisy. Plus, I had a severe headache, so I couldn’t help but feel a little irritated.”
"Guan Jia, don't sigh. I'll give you a massage." The concubine with a cheerful personality came over and started massaging Guan Jia's head.
"Alas, you are the most discerning and know how to treat me well." The official no longer put on airs and talked to this concubine like a conversation between ordinary people.
This concubine was extremely courageous and took advantage of the official family to treat her as one of their own, so she spoke frankly: "Is the housekeeper bothering you because the queen is pregnant?"
After hearing this, the housekeeper immediately glared: "What do you mean by this?"
"I don't mean anything, I'm just speculating."
"You'd better not mean anything. Do you know how influential your words are? Your words are stupid because you have bad intentions. Why does the Queen's pregnancy bother me? Why do you feel that The Queen is pregnant and it will bother me. As the mother of a country, the Queen is a bun for me. The fact that she has not had a voice for many years has always been a thorn in our hearts. Now she has finally become pregnant. As fate dictates, I am pregnant and will soon give birth to our legitimate prince. This is a great joy, a good thing that cannot be asked for. Why do you think this matter bothers me? I warn you, Don't think about anything, let alone speculate about the Holy Heart. "What the official said was scary and very intimidating, but he did not refuse or interrupt the concubine and continued to massage his head.
This concubine was not only courageous, but also quick-thinking. Although she only blamed the official, and the tone sounded scary to her, she did not let herself go away, nor did she let herself go and stop massaging him. , I understood a little bit in my heart. It seemed that the official family was really having a headache because the empress was pregnant. It seemed that the queen was right. The official family had been afraid of her.
"Yes, yes, the knowledge of the official lesson, I really deserve a slap in the mouth. I actually said such treacherous words. The Queen is pregnant. It is a great good thing. It is a happy event for our entire Great Xia. It should be celebrated by everyone. Yes. Please forgive me, the steward. The first is the fastest concubine. I didn’t think so, and I didn’t have any bad intentions. I was just worried that the official would have a headache, so I became a little anxious and started talking nonsense. Please don’t take it seriously. It’s all my concubine’s fault.” Saying that, this concubine is going to do something and slap herself in the mouth.
"Okay, okay, you don't have any malicious intentions, you just said something carelessly for a moment. Your original intention was good, and you were thinking about me. It's okay. Forget it, there is no need to punish yourself." The housekeeper waved his hand to him , let him go.
"Thank you for your magnanimity and kindness, steward."
The official sighed again: "Well, in fact, the fact that the Queen is pregnant really surprised me, and it also made me feel more sorry for the Queen. She has been helping me with business these past few days. Because I am busy and tired with political affairs, and now I am pregnant, this is an extremely difficult thing. I am afraid that the Queen’s body will not be able to bear these two things, so I feel a little upset.”
"Since the Empress does not want to take care of the house, why not find someone to share the burden of the Empress? It is also good to let the Empress relax a little faster. In this way, the Empress will have more energy to raise the baby."
There was a hint of joy in the official's eyes: "You have said something pleasant. This is a good idea."
