Chapter 135 The Queen
Ripple merged into a body again. Before he opened his eyes, he heard louder and louder arguments, and the sounds became sharper and louder, even a little harsh.
She did not open her eyes in a hurry. She felt it carefully, her brows wrinkled slightly, and then she opened her eyes sharply, and her sharp eyes swept across the people arguing below.
The female official in court uniform immediately stepped forward and shouted:
"Silence! How unbecoming is it to make such a noise in the court hall!"
The people who were so noisy immediately stopped and looked at the queen who was wearing a red court dress. The queen who just closed her eyes and let them quarrel, now her sharp eyes swept across their faces one by one, making everyone immediately lower their eyes. After standing back to his original position, the whole hall immediately became quiet and could be heard.
"Why don't you stop arguing? Are you hoping that I will make room early so that you can stand in line early and support the princess you like?"
The cold and majestic voice echoed throughout the hall, giving way for no reason. People feel depressed.
"I don't dare!"
Everyone in the hall fell to their knees, especially the three princesses at the front, who had a look of fear on their faces.
"Hmph! It's because I don't dare, not because I don't want to!"
The queen sat up straight and said calmly.
No one among the people kneeling in the main hall dared to raise their head, and the atmosphere was a bit stiff.
The eldest princess quickly raised her head and glanced at her mother, straightened up and said:
"Mother, please calm down! In my heart, the body of the mother is the most important, and everything else is more important than anything else. No, the courtier is also worried about your health and has no other intentions.”
"What the eldest sister is saying is, Queen Mother, please don't be angry and be careful with yourself!"
The second princess also straightened up and saluted with both hands.
"Mother, don't listen to these people's nonsense. I am your youngest daughter. Even if you want to pass on the throne, you can't pass it on to me. The crown princess is either a direct descendant or a eldest daughter, and I am the same. Even if you don’t take it, I hope you can sit on the throne for another hundred and eighty years and watch me get married and have children. Those are the days of immortality.” In the lobby, he made his thoughts clear and clear, which earned the eldest and second princesses a blank stare.
No one else in the hall made a sound, and now only the three princesses would come forward to avoid being scolded.
"If I sit on the throne for a hundred and eighty years, I will become an old monster, which will make people hate me even more."
Lianyi stroked the sleeves of the large and exquisite court clothes and said softly.
Because of one sentence, the stiff atmosphere in the hall eased.
"Well, you have been arguing for so long, and you must have your own ideas, so let's give it a try! I will consider it as appropriate."
After Ripple finished speaking, he stood aside Female officer Huizhi stood up with her hands.
Immediately, a middle-aged female guard with a knife stepped forward and shouted:
"Retreat from the court!"
"Farewell to the Queen, long live the Queen!"
< br>"Huh! The slogan is so good, you are not expecting me to abdicate."
Ripple left the court hall with a leisurely pace.
Her last words seemed to reach the ears of the three princesses and the courtiers. After everyone stood up, they looked at each other and then exited the hall in twos and threes.
The three princesses greeted each other and followed the courtiers back to their palaces.
After leaving the main hall, Lianyi directly ordered his imperial chariot to go to the palace instead of Qinzheng Hall.
The female official Huizhi immediately stepped forward and asked softly:
"Queen, but your head hurts again? Do you want me to be the imperial doctor?"
"No, I just want to rest. It just so happens that the court officials are going to write a report. Give them three days to prepare the report and rest for three days." Lianyi said very bachelorly.
“This”
The female official Huizhi hesitated.
"Just as I said, they won't make a fuss."
Lianyi waved his hand directly.
"Yes, I will go and convey the Queen's instructions."
Huizhi took a step back and trotted to convey the meaning of Lianyi.
After returning to the palace from Xuanzheng Hall, Lianyi ordered the maids to bathe and change her clothes. When she sat in front of the dressing mirror, Lady Lan Xin came to report:
"Queen, Emperor My husband is waiting outside the palace.”
"Let him go back, just say that I am tired today and want to be clean for a while."
Looking at the haggard original owner in the mirror, Lianyi sighed in her heart. No wonder the obsession is so heavy and the resentment has affected the small world. operation.
The original owner in the mirror has wrinkles on the corners of his lips and eyes, severe dark circles under his eyes, deep nasolabial folds, spots and yellowing on his skin that require a thick layer of powder to cover, and his hair has turned white. half.
At first glance, it seems that premature aging is caused by overdraft of energy, and it is easy to die from overwork. In addition, her good daughters added good ingredients to her, which caused Shen Yuan to faint while discussing matters in Xuanzheng Hall not long ago. , Fortunately, the imperial doctor had some skills and rescued the original body, but even so, the original body's vitality was severely damaged.
Because of the original owner's fainting, the court began to clamor for the appointment of a crown princess. As good contenders for this position, the three princesses have come into everyone's sight. This is a critical moment to stand in line.
If you choose the right one, you will live in glory and wealth for a lifetime, if you choose the wrong one, you will be doomed. Ambitious ministers will naturally take the gamble. There is also a category of losers. There is also a category of staunch neutrals who do not choose sides and are only loyal to the queen. Heirs, these people naturally seek stability.
Now the three princesses are all in their prime, and they have already left the palace and built a mansion, married husbands, and even have two or three children. Among them, the three princesses are just sixteen years old. , although they are already married, they have not yet given birth to a daughter or a son.
It is precisely because of this that the third princess made a bold statement in the court that she would not participate in the competition for the crown princess. It was also to show off the ears of the courtiers. After all, she was neither the eldest daughter nor the legitimate daughter. Women, who have no heirs, do not have the basic hardware to compete.
Ripple stroked his long hair and wanted to sigh. This body was really bad. If she hadn't come, he would have died in three to five years at most.
At this time, a maid lit incense in a copper furnace with a phoenix flying to the sky. The light and elegant aroma floated out from the incense burner, but Ripple frowned and said coldly:
"Take away the incense, I have a headache from smelling it!"
"Yes!"
The waitress seemed to be frightened, and immediately called two female officials to carry the incense burner out.
At this time, Lady Lan Xin also walked in carrying a food box, and respectfully said to Lianyi:
"Empress, this is the ginseng soup that the emperor asked me to deliver. Let me advise you to use more and take care of yourself. Children have their own destiny.”
"He is a good person."
Lianyi said lightly.
Immediately waved all the maids in the palace to go out, leaving only Huizhi and Lan Xin, the two most capable female officers.
The two female officials have been with the Queen Wu Lianyi since childhood. They grew up together and were trained together to be the Queen's right-hand assistants. There are some things that she will not shy away from the two of them.
“I was poisoned, so my body became weaker and weaker”
"What!"
"How could it be?"
Two exclamations sounded at the same time.
