Villainess Wants To Turn Over A New Leaf - Chapter 46

[Chapter 46 [46]]

The queen mother’s return to the palace is another big event for the harem.

Although the current queen dowager does not interfere in the affairs of the harem, and rarely stays in the palace, but after all, she is the mother of the emperor, and her power is no less than that of the queen.

Some concubines have no way in front of the emperor, and they will go to the queen mother to find a sense of existence.

If you can love the queen mother, even if there is no holy favor, it can be considered a guarantee in this deep palace.

And don’t look at the Queen Mother, although she is not in charge, but if there is an unresolved unjust case in front of her, she will still come forward to solve it. The method is very powerful and awesome.

But if you want to say that there are a few people in this palace who really like the queen mother, that’s not necessarily true.

After all, she was the last palace fighting champion, not a kind person. I’m afraid she can’t even remember how many lives and blood she got on her hands.

The members of the royal family have endless wealth and power, but they will never be able to enjoy the affection and warmth that ordinary people have.

The queen mother worshiped Buddha in her later years, and it was also an old age. Recalling the various things in the past, she began to feel fear and guilt.

In particular, Buddhists pay attention to karma, and the queen mother is always worried that she will go to hell after her death.

When Emperor Lin first ascended the throne, she actually wanted to stay in the harem to help.

After all, she understands what kind of storms these women can make. With her in charge, the concubines can always be more peaceful.

But it was probably the emperor who enthroned her greatest wish, and as soon as the whole person relaxed, she began to dream of those who died at her hands in those years, and she couldn’t sleep at night, which was scary.

Finally, after listening to the advice of the eminent monk, she relentlessly moved directly to Mount Wutai, where the Great Buddha sits. I don’t know if it was really useful or for psychological reasons. She really stopped having nightmares, so she gradually settled down in Mount Wutai and devoted herself to worshipping the Buddha to offset her sins.

When she was young, she was beautiful and very flamboyant. Now that she is old, her skin is slack and her facial features look very prominent, especially her cheekbones are high, showing a bit mean and sharp look, which makes people feel scared at first sight. .

The Queen Mother remembered that she had scared her little grandson to tears back then.

She cried as soon as she hugged her, which made the concubines panic.

Later, the grandchildren gradually grew up. Although they stopped crying, they were respectful and awe-inspiring in front of her, and they were not close to her at all.

It seems that this is also her life, old age can not enjoy the blessing of children and grandchildren.

However, after so many years with the ancient Buddha of Qing Deng, the Queen Mother also looked at it, but she did not take it to heart.

After a long journey, I finally returned to the long-awaited palace.

Naturally, Emperor Lin brought a group of concubines, princes and princesses to greet him. When the Queen Mother got off the carriage, she glanced at it and found that her little grandchildren had grown a lot taller.

It’s just that the fourth child and the prince stood next to the little girl who was born to her. She was the shortest among all the children, and there were two tugs on the top of her head. She was looking at her secretly with a pair of smart eyes.

The other grandchildren all lowered their heads and lowered their eyes, looking respectful, only she seemed not afraid of anything. When she met her gaze, she ducked back like a frightened little animal, but there was no fear in her eyes. , only curious.

The queen mother thought, is this the little five mentioned in the emperor’s letter?

She didn’t have time to take a closer look, and everyone saluted one by one.

The queen mother was old and happy, and traveled a long distance. After she was finished receiving the ceremony, she returned to the Yiqing Palace with a sore back. She gave an order that there is nothing to ask for peace of mind, so as not to worry people.

She just returned to the palace today, and she was physically tired. Naturally, everyone did not dare to offend her. If there was anything, she would wait until later. After receiving it, they went back separately.

Lin Jingyuan accompanied Lin Feilu back to Mingyue Palace, and broke a flower branch and danced in his hand

. Lin Jingyuan was not convinced:

”

Why not! There are none of us in the younger generation who are not afraid of her. If you don’t believe me, ask the first emperor!” He shouted to Lin Ting who was walking in front, “The first emperor! Are you also afraid of the emperor’s grandmother?” ?”

Lin Ting turned around and rebuked warmly: “Don’t talk nonsense, the emperor’s grandmother treats us very well, as a junior, I only feel awe.”

Lin Jingyuan spread his hands: “Listen, the first emperor is a euphemism for fear. Say

it.”

Lin Ting smiled helplessly, but did not refute.

Lin Feilu reached out and brushed the flowers by the roadside, and said softly, “I’m not afraid anyway.” Lin Jingyuan looked at her

lovingly

and sighed: “Those who don’t know are fearless.”

Putting this topic aside, he turned excitedly and said, “Xiaolu, it’s your birthday in two days. Guess what gift I have prepared for you?”

Lin Feilu thought about it seriously: “A brush? Ancient books? Gilt ink?”

Lin Jingyuan: “…So these terrible things are gifts for you?”

He thought about the nine-layer streamer revolving lantern in his palace, which was brought in from outside the palace with great care. , I feel that this time the gift will probably disappoint Sister Xiaolu.

As soon as Lin Feilu saw his annoyed look, he knew what he was thinking. He rubbed his hand and bent his eyes and said sweetly, “I like everything that Brother Jingyuan gave me!”

Lin Jingyuan straightened up contentedly. waist rod.

…

Although the Queen Mother had a verbal order that most people should not disturb her, but the next morning, the Queen and the two noble concubines brought their children to pay their respects.

Concubine Xi is still in a cold and indifferent appearance. Although she has no heirs and no desire to compete for favor, the Xi family is full of goalkeepers, and the Queen Mother treats her very leniently.

Lin Ting and Lin Qing are the empress dowager’s favorite grandsons, one is docile and the other elegant, and both are polite and eager to learn.

The two bowed their heads below and stood aside. Even when the Queen Mother called someone over and held hands to look at them, the two looked cautiously with their eyes down.

The queen mother didn’t care, and asked them to withdraw after a few words.

He also asked the queen and the two noble concubines if there was any major event in the harem in the past year.

Speaking of major events, it is estimated that only Concubine Mei was demoted.

The queen said it briefly.

The Empress Dowager knows how much the Emperor loves Concubine Mei.

She actually didn’t like women like Concubine Mei. She used to be in the harem, and she didn’t know how many of these weak little white flowers were killed, so when she looked at Concubine Mei, she would think of the bad things in the past.

But she couldn’t stand her son’s liking, and she, an old lady, didn’t want to be annoying, so she didn’t say much.

Now that I hear that Concubine Mei has fallen out of favor, I am quite surprised.

She knew about her son’s urination, and after listening to the Queen’s story, she quickly grasped the key point – his appearance was ruined.

Yeah, I got it.

In the afternoon, the third concubine also brought the child over.

The former fourth concubine became the third concubine, and the queen mother felt a lot more pleasing to the eye.

Lin Jiwen and Lin Jingyuan were arrogant and domineering on weekdays, but they behaved like kittens in front of the imperial grandmother, and they dared not speak loudly.

After greeting the two grandsons, the queen mother smiled and looked at Lin Nianzhi aside: “I haven’t seen you for more than a year, but Nianzhi is much quieter than before. It’s just that his face doesn’t look very good, is his body not good?”

Lin Nianzhi looked up and looked up.

She glanced at the imperial grandmother, and then quickly lowered her head: “Thank you for your concern, granddaughter just hasn’t had a good rest recently, so it’s fine.” The

queen mother said: “It’s not a trivial matter to have a good rest, Concubine Hui, you The mother should also have more snacks, and then go back to the palace and call the imperial doctor to see and prescribe some medicine to calm the nerves and help sleep.”

Concubine Hui respectfully responded.

Among the former four concubines, the Queen Mother liked Concubine Hui the most.

One is that she was the first to give birth to an heir to the emperor. Although she was a princess, she was also very likable.

Second, the queen mother admired Concubine Hui’s calm and low-key temperament. If there were more concubines like her in the harem, she would be more peaceful.

After Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu retired, the queen mother left Concubine Hui as usual to talk for a while.

As soon as Concubine Hui sat down, her eyes were a little red, and she said warmly: “You should come back to the palace more often, Wutai Mountain is too deserted, and there is no one to talk to you.” The

queen mother sat cross-legged on the soft couch, covering her legs He took off a blanket, held a Buddha bead in his hand, and

said with a smile: “When people are old, they like to be quiet. Living in this palace, they feel noisy.”

Going to your palace?”

Concubine Hui lowered her eyes and smiled: “Your Majesty is busy with politics, and I did not go to the harem many times this year. However, if you have the knowledge, His Majesty will still come once a month.” The

Queen Mother said: ” This is not bad. Although Nianzhi is a princess, it is often said that her daughter is caring, which is many times better than that of the fourth child. Yes.”

Concubine Hui nodded yes.

She always knew what the Queen Mother liked her, and she never went overboard in her actions, and she only picked what she liked when she spoke.

The Queen Mother suddenly asked: “Have you seen the Fifth Princess?”

Concubine Hui was stunned and nodded: “Yes. The Fifth Princess and Nianzhi are good friends and often come to my palace.” Before the Queen Mother asked again, she smiled. Said: “The fifth princess always sends things to Yaohua Palace, such as hand cream sachets and so on. I know that I like the gift from my sister, so I also give her brocade gold and jade. The two children are sisters.”

She said .

This is a very good word, but the Queen Mother heard another meaning.

The five princesses gave all the little things that were worthless.

What Lin Nian knew was all precious things.

Inevitably there is the suspicion of taking advantage.

On the way back to the palace, she had already inquired clearly from the palace servants who were taking care of her. It turned out that the fifth princess was the daughter of the noble Lan who gave birth to the stupid prince.

No such person has been investigated before, which shows that this fifth princess is unsatisfactory in terms of status and life in the palace.

Then it’s not surprising that she pleases Lin Nianzhi.

It’s just that she has such a scheming at a young age, and the Queen Mother will inevitably be displeased when she hears it.

Thinking that in just one year, she would be able to jump from an unknown princess to a favorite for the emperor to hold a state banquet for her, and her eyes dimmed more and more.

Concubine Hui didn’t say much. She has always been vigilant in her actions. Seeing the empress dowager’s eyes overflowing with displeasure, today’s goal has been achieved.

After a cup of tea, he retired and left.

Having received concubines above the concubine rank today, Yiqing Palace will no longer let people in, so as not to disturb the queen mother’s rest.

After dinner, the Queen Mother went out for a walk with the help of the palace servants.

At the end of spring, the palace is full of flowers and the scenery is very beautiful.

I was used to seeing the deserted scene in Wutai Mountain, and I was very satisfied when I occasionally saw the wealth in this world.

Passing through the Begonia Garden, I heard a quarrel, the voice was broken, it sounded a bit like the voice of a little girl.

The queen mother walked over slowly, and saw a small figure behind the begonia flower shadow, with two tugs on the top of her head, which looked familiar.

It’s just that this little figure was wiping away tears at this time, burping and crying, and said intermittently in a small milk voice: “You have… you haven’t listened to me for ninety-eight days.” The

queen mother didn’t know what happened before.

There was a person who changed positions in surprise, only to see a person standing not far away, looking at the back, it was Lin Nianzhi.

Just looking at it, I heard Lin Nianzhi’s muffled voice: “I didn’t ignore you.”

The little milky voice sobbed and retorted her: “You have! I wave to you and you ignore me! I call you and you ignore me. You ran away when you saw me just now…” The

more she spoke, the sadder she became, and finally sat down on the ground, covering her face and crying.

Lin Nianzhi stomped his feet twice, and had to turn around and walk back. When he came to the little girl, he squatted down and took out the handkerchief in his arms to wipe her tears: “Oh, don’t cry! Don’t cry… Lin Feilu! Nope! Crying!” The

crying stopped.

The little girl pursed her lips aggrievedly, raised her head and looked at her pitifully.

Lin Nianzhi’s expression was extremely complicated. He squeezed the handkerchief to wipe away the tears on her face, then pulled her up from the ground and patted her ass.

Lin Feilu tugged at her cuff, eagerly: “Sister…Aren’t you mad at me?”

Lin Nianzhi said impatiently, “I’m not mad at you, I’m mad at myself!”

She seemed unable to listen Understood, tilted his head to look at her.

Lin Nianzhi looked at her angrily for a while, and finally took her hand in discouragement: “Forget it, I’ll take you back.” Then he taught her: “You follow me so far, and you’re not afraid of being caught by the bad guys!”

The little girl held her hand happily, her crying eyes were watery, but she didn’t hide her happiness: “I’m not afraid if the eldest sister is here!”

Lin Nianzhi: “Humph!” Lin

Feilu

: “Hehe.”

People gradually walked away, and the queen mother stood behind the begonia flower shadow, and the corners of her lips curved up at some point.

She turned around and said to the palace servant who served for many years: “These two children remind me of my sister Ying and I.” Her tone turned low, “It’s a pity that sister Ying was murdered by an adulterer and went too far. Morning…”

She didn’t want to say more, and turned around: “Go back.”
