Chapter 902 There Is No Way to Chat Awkwardly
No, his voice was quite loud just now, it stands to reason that the entire Zhongcui Palace could hear it.
But no one in the main hall came out to greet him.
Even in the Left West Hall, no other little master came out.
Only a few servants in the courtyard came out one after another to salute.
The person who should be seen was not seen, and fourth master didn't have time to stand in the yard, so he walked directly into Ruoyin's main hall.
Su Peisheng glanced at the back of the fourth master, and wanted to say that the emperor came to look for the queen, and he didn't bother to ask the servants beside him.
He only caught Li Fukang and asked, "Where is the Empress?"
"Returning to Grandpa Su, the empress took the rest of the young masters to the Yonghe Palace to pay her respects to the Queen Mother." Li Fukang replied truthfully.
Hearing this, Su Peisheng had nothing to say.
I could only stand in the yard and wait.
After all, it was a greeting to the Empress Dowager.
He can't let people call the queen back.
At the same time, Ruoyin was leading the women in the harem to greet Concubine De in Yonghe Palace.
Although this Concubine De didn't want to be the Empress Dowager, she was very airy when the people in the harem saluted her.
Probably because she used to be humble.
Finally, in this Forbidden City, she climbed from the palace maid to the empress dowager position.
During this period, I suffered a lot and saw the faces of many noble people.
Now even if she doesn't want to be the empress dowager, she is still the emperor's own mother, and those people will inevitably come to pay her respects.
At this moment, Ruoyin was sitting in the main hall of the Yonghe Palace. She had already drunk three cups of tea, and there was no sign of Concubine De.
It seems... Concubine De deliberately let them sit on the bench.
But Concubine De's putting on airs is the Concubine De's business.
Those of them who are juniors are very courteous.
After another stick of incense, Concubine De supported Aunt Cui's hand and came out from the room.
Seeing this, Ruoyin and the others got up and saluted: "My concubine please rest assured to the Queen Mother, best wishes to the Queen Mother."
Concubine De was wearing a dark blue gold embroidered women's jacket, her hair was coiled up high, with a golden chiseled blessing character hairpin, and a bat pattern headdress.
On a face, there are only a few fine lines.
The sharp and experienced eyes swept over the faces of everyone.
Finally, it landed on Ruoyin, paused for a while, then withdrew his gaze, and took a seat at the top.
"The emperor's ascension to the throne is really not what I thought in my heart, which caused me to feel depressed. I feel unwell and come out late." Concubine De sat at the head, without a trace of apology, "Get up."
In fact, she was stimulated by Long Kedo's promotion.
Feeling upset for a while, he vented his anger on the harem.
It turned out that the fourth master had been married to Queen Tong Jia since he was a child, and grew up under her knees.
Later, Queen Tong Jia died, and it was still under the name of Queen Tong Jia, which has not been changed.
Therefore, I have always called Longkodo my uncle, and I haven't changed my words.
It's just that it's the biological mother after all, and the adoptive mother is no longer alive, so I go to Defei to behave.
This is the ancestral system that the previous emperor has never changed, so naturally it can only be like this.
Concubine De always has trouble with a dead person, it's her narrow-mindedness.
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Ruoyin got up a few times and sat down again.
They pretended they didn't hear what Concubine De said, and didn't talk to them.
With a humble smile on his face, he looked at Concubine De.
Immediately afterwards, Concubine De said: "However... now that things have settled down, this is the only way to go."
Ruoyin and the others naturally knew what Concubine De meant.
One by one, with embarrassment on their faces, they didn't say anything.
How can people talk about this, there is no way to chat awkwardly!
Seeing that everyone was silent, Concubine De finally brought up a crucial point.
She held her lips, and said lightly: "For the emperor, the most important thing is to govern the country and extend the succession of the emperor. Governing the country is the business of men, and women have no right to interfere in the affairs of state. However, for the royal family to stay To cultivate a good bloodline is the duty and obligation that you must fulfill, and it is related to the future of the country."
Hearing this, the women in the harem finally regained their spirits.
"Since the emperor became an adult, there are only a few children in the mansion. Don't think that I don't know what's going on when I'm in the palace. In the past, you were all in the mansion. Even if I want to take care of some things, I can't take care of them so far. Now You all moved to the palace, if I see something dirty, I can't tolerate a grain of sand in my eyes!"
Concubine De's voice was sonorous and powerful, revealing the majesty of an elder.
Looking at Concubine De's serious appearance, she should really care about this.
The water in this harem is deep and muddy.
Concubine De gave birth to several elder brothers and princesses in succession.
Although a few did not support them, they were considered prolific.
In the harem, being prolific is equivalent to being favored and having means.
So Concubine De has seen many dirty things in the harem, and this is to wake up the harem.
Everyone naturally responded with a smile: "Thank you for the teaching of the Empress Dowager, the concubine will keep it in mind."
Even though everyone deserved well, Concubine De still had a stern face, turned her head to look at Ruoyin, and said, "Queen, as the main wife, you used to be jealous in the mansion. It is your duty to manage the daily order and trivial matters of the harem well, and to persuade the emperor to enjoy the rain and dew evenly."
"Yes." Ruoyin replied.
Here, the man doesn't have many children under his knees, and it's the woman in charge who doesn't manage it well.
If the main wife is infertile, she has to find a way to take a concubine for the man to show her virtue.
Even if the men are spending time and drinking outside, it is because the women did not persuade them well.
If the father-in-law and mother-in-law want to blame, they will only blame the daughter-in-law.
Anyway, no matter what, it's all the woman's fault.
Even if the mother-in-law is unreasonable, she can only obey obediently, otherwise it is unfilial.
Ruoyin obviously didn't care about it, but Concubine De taught again: "Don't just think about letting others not threaten your harem position all day long, you know the women in the harem."
Hearing this, Ruoyin's eyes rolled, and she knew what Concubine De was referring to.
It is estimated that he is talking about Mrs. Li who still lives in the mansion.
So, on the surface, she said that she was jealous, but on the other hand, she secretly said that she deliberately left Mrs. Li in the mansion.
Ruoyin had always relied on himself to compete for favor.
Never say that you suppress others for no reason.
If she really wanted to overwhelm the women in the harem, it would be for young, beautiful and backgrounded women like Nianshi.
As for Li Shi, who has given birth to several children and is as arrogant as a firecracker?
Ruoyin smiled at Concubine De, and replied decently: "What Huang Erniang taught is true, but there is one thing, if Huang Erniang doesn't know, then Mrs. Li really doesn't understand the rules, so I sent her off. Besides , all the sisters in the harem were there that day, if you don't believe me, you can ask them, and they will know what is right and what is wrong."
Since the Empress Dowager is knocking on the sidelines here, let's bring the matter to the surface.
She can do as the Romans do and understand the feudal and pedantic ideas.
But you can't let people put a hat on her head indiscriminately.
Anyway, she is also the one who wants to be the queen, so it's fine if she is scolded by Concubine De.
