It’s Better to be the Empress Dowager - Chapter 86
Master Tang’s stomach had been faintly uncomfortable, and then she was forced to take a concubine. She was so annoyed that she suddenly went black and fainted.
Before Tang Shishi fainted, he vaguely heard Du Juan busy asking people to invite King Jing. From the side came a familiar cold saying: “Since the princess has fainted, then I should call the imperial physician and ask the prince to do what?”
“The princess is in health, how can you not notify the princess of such a serious matter?”
“Ignorant maidservant, how busy the prince is in his official duties, how can you disturb the prince with this little sesame matter? It’s useless if you go, the prince won’t come back, you will only make trouble for your master. With this Some time, I’d better call her an imperial doctor in An Anfen.”
“Don’t quarrel, come here, take my waist card, and go to the imperial doctor.”
The last impression of Master Tang stayed in Lu Yufei’s voice. It seems that Lu Yufei sent someone to find an imperial physician, and Master Tang was put on a soft pillow. Her mind was ups and downs, but she wanted to wake up but couldn’t help. She felt the noise in her ears all the time, and it seemed that someone was walking around in her ears. It was very annoying. In the end, all the voices suddenly stopped, and a steady and powerful footstep came straight towards her.
After Master Tang fainted, the beauties were clamoring and could not come up with an idea for a long time. Some advocate pinching people, some advocate not to act rashly, and others advocate feeding soothing tea to Master Tang. They didn’t agree, but no one wanted to go to Zhao Chengjun.
How busy Jing Wang is on weekdays, how can he care about this little thing? While they were arguing, there was a loud and powerful footsteps outside, and they quickly approached the main room. They were startled, and when they turned their heads, they saw Zhao Chengjun walking from the corridor with a calm face.
The beauties froze for a moment and hurriedly saluted hello, but Zhao Chengjun didn’t even look at them, and quickly walked past them, as if there were no such people at all.
The beauties kept their blessed movements scattered, and once again stunned. Don’t say let King Jing notice their graceful posture, they didn’t even finish saying hello. King Jing actually came back, and as soon as he entered the door and went straight to the inner room, he ignored the others at all.
The women were surprised. At this time, the talents behind King Jing followed, Liu Ji ran out of breath, panting and saying: “Everyone, get up quickly, the prince is in a bad mood, don’t make trouble here.”
It didn’t stop there. Behind Liu Ji, Zhao Zixun and Mother Feng also walked in. Lu Yufei was shocked when he saw Zhao Zixun: “Shizi, why are you here?”
When Zhao Zixun saw Lu Yufei there, he subconsciously wanted to frown. He noticed Zhou Shunhua who was not far away, and then reluctantly resisted, and asked, “I heard that the princess fainted, what’s the matter?”
“I don’t know the concubine body.” Lu Yufei said invitingly, “but the concubine body has already been hired by the imperial doctor and will be here soon.”
At the end of Lu Yufei’s speech, his tone couldn’t help lowering, and he felt that this was like an excuse. In fact, I really don’t blame Lu Yufei. Lu Yufei did go to the imperial doctor immediately, but who would know that King Jing came sooner than the imperial doctor?
I don’t know if someone spread the letter, but in the end the imperial doctor came. When he entered the door, he was out of breath, panting and saying: “See the prince, the son.”
“Don’t waste time.” Zhao Chengjun said with a cold face, without waiting for the emperor to finish the ceremony, he said solemnly, “Come to her for a pulse.”
“The minister obeyed.”
The imperial physician tremblingly stepped forward, pinched Master Tang’s wrist and pressed for a while. He wanted to let go, but when he looked up and saw Zhao Chengjun’s face, he stopped abruptly and took a few more consultations to make sure that no mistakes were made before he was cautious. He took back the veil and said: “Return to the prince, that the princess had a bad pregnancy, and she was frightened and cold at the beginning. Even if she was well-conditioned later, she was still much weaker than a normal pregnant woman. The princess was already weak, and she was short of breath. The heart attacked, and the qi and blood did not last, so I fainted.”
Anxious? Zhao Chengjun’s eyes swept across the room quietly, the back of the person who was seen chilled, and he couldn’t help holding his breath and bowing his head. Zhao Chengjun couldn’t bear it for the time being, and asked: “How to treat?”
“Now, the princess can wake up after lying down for a while, but in the future, if you want to put an end to this situation, you have to supplement with medicine and slowly recuperate.”
Zhao Chengjun waved his hand and told Liu Ji to take the imperial physician to prescribe the medicine: “Just do what you said. The medicine is prescribed according to the best, no need to worry about the price.”
The imperial physician should follow Liu Ji to go out. Madam Feng listened to the audience. She glanced at Master Tang who was lying on the bed, then looked at all the beauties of the court with her head down, and asked calmly: “What the **** is going on? Good point, why did the princess faint? ?”
While Sister Feng was talking, Master Tang woke up. She frowned slightly and moved her eyelashes slightly. Zhao Chengjun noticed it immediately. He held her hand and asked softly, “Master Tang, it’s me. How are you?”
Master Tang struggled to break free from the darkness. She opened her eyes and saw the person in front of her. She was stunned for a long time before reacting, “Master?”
“it’s me.”
As soon as Master Tang fell with tears in his eyes, he choked and threw himself at Zhao Chengjun. Zhao Chengjun hurriedly held on, feeling terribly distressed: “What’s the matter?”
All the people standing behind were shocked. What did they see? As soon as the princess woke up, she cried and threw herself into the arms of King Jing, but did the princess still hold her arms? In broad daylight, everyone is in full view, how can they do such an unruly thing?
It is a virtuous person who marries a wife, and even holding hands in public is ignorant, let alone hugging. Tang Shishi was originally a beautician sent from the palace. It is understandable that she would confuse the Lord with ethics, but why did King Jing follow along?
When Tang Shishi saw Zhao Chengjun’s grievances, she subconsciously threw herself into Zhao Chengjun’s arms, but after she cried for a while, she reacted rationally and found that it was inappropriate to do so.
It’s not that the two of them are getting along in private, there are still many people standing outside.
After Tang Shishi realized this, his whole body became stiff, and he would not cry anymore. Zhao Chengjun noticed it, and he gently supported Tang Shishi to sit down, and while wiping her tears, he asked, “What’s the matter, who made you angry?”
Teacher Tang still had tears on his eyelashes, and his eyes were moist and bright, like black jade. Master Tang quickly scanned Lu Yufei and the others, lowered his eyelashes and said, “It’s nothing, it’s because I’m upset and can’t control my emotions. It’s nothing to do with others.”
Zhao Chengjun followed Tang Shishi’s sight and turned back, and it was Lu Yufei where he fell. Lu Yufei’s hairs were erected immediately. Zhao Chengjun turned his head and still spoke to Master Tang in a warm voice: “You are pregnant and emotionally fragile. It is normal to be easy to be happy and easy to be miserable. The person who disturbs your mood is wrong. What did they say to you? “
Based on Zhao Chengjun’s experience, how can I not tell that this group of women said something to Master Tang, and as a result, Master Tang was dizzy. Zhao Chengjun asked her kindly, but Master Tang hesitated.
If it was something else, Master Tang would have shaken out happily, but what Lu Yufei and other beauties said was about concubine.
In private, she can pester Zhao Chengjun to act like a coquettish, coerce and lure Zhao Chengjun not to accept a concubine. But what if in front of everyone?
She couldn’t intercede, and Zhao Chengjun had to take care of face, and there was almost no doubt about accepting concubines. Because originally, this is a normal and legal thing.
Master Tang’s eyelashes trembled quickly, and he dared not answer for a while. Master Tang is stuck here. Lu Yufei perceives that this is an opportunity and takes the initiative to stand up and say: “The prince, the princess has just woke up, and the mood hasn’t recovered. It’s not suitable to recall what happened just now, and my daughter-in-law is willing to dare to speak to the princess.”
Zhao Zixun frowned, thinking that Lu Yufei was simply too stupid, not knowing the so-called. Zhao Chengjun’s family affairs, what did she mix with?
Zhao Chengjun glanced at Lu Yufei lightly and said, “Yes.”
After Zhao Chengjun said these words, he felt Master Tang tighten his clothes and his shoulders straightened. She herself didn’t realize these movements, but her body reaction could not deceive anyone.
She was scared. What is she afraid of?
Lu Yufei received the approval of King Jing, and his confidence immediately increased. The winning ticket was in her hands: “Li Meiren feels sorry for the princess’s hard pregnancy. She suggested that the princess should take care of several people by her side, take care of the princess, and share the housework for the princess. The princess is about to reply. , Suddenly fainted.”
Li Meiren is one of the beauties who have just been questioned. When everyone heard that it turned out to be such a reason, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and showed their approval.
Even Madam Feng didn’t seem to be out of color when she heard it. Master Tang is pregnant and can no longer serve Zhao Chengjun, so she must find a woman to compensate King Jing. This is not uncommon in the family of kings and nobles. The princess was pregnant, and she wanted to find two maidservants to open their faces and serve the maid during her pregnancy.
Master Tang was aware of the invisible attitude of the people, and the despair in his heart was even worse. She has no say in such matters, she can’t even express dissatisfaction. Master Tang’s mood slipped to the bottom. She thought that being passive was better than taking the initiative. Instead of waiting for someone to stuff her a few difficult things, she would take the initiative to choose.
Teacher Tang was about to speak, Zhao Chengjun said one step ahead of time: “It turned out to be this. The princess asked me about these things privately, but I was too troublesome and prevented her from being arrogant. I had no intention of getting married. I married the princess to take care of the royal family’s contribution. The princess did a good job on this point, and no other women are needed. You don’t need to ask about this kind of things again.”
Master Tang was stunned, raised his head in disbelief, staring at Zhao Chengjun in a daze. Zhao Chengjun’s expression was still very calm, his tone seemed to say “what to eat at noon today”, and he didn’t feel how amazing his words were at all.
Tang Shishi didn’t understand why Zhao Chengjun said this, and took the reason to himself. But in any case, this is a good thing. Master Tang hurriedly said: “What the prince said is. As a wife, since the prince is the first thing to do, the prince refuses to accept concubines. Although I feel wrong, there is absolutely no reason to refute it. Sister Feng, don’t you think?”
Mother Feng was also fooled by this trick, and she couldn’t tell what Zhao Chengjun wanted to do for a while. When there were only a few of them before, Zhao Chengjun also showed extraordinary love for Master Tang, even saying that they would have children in the future. But after all, it was in private. Now in front of everyone, Zhao Chengjun still loves Master Tang so much, and even accepts concubines to follow Master Tang?
Of course, Grandma Feng didn’t believe in Master Tang’s rhetoric, and it was all **** that King Jing was unwilling to prevent Master Tang from accepting concubines. Not to mention whether there are any men in the world who don’t want to take concubines, just talk about Master Tang, is Master Tang such a virtuous and reasonable person?
Totally impossible. Therefore, there can only be one explanation, and that is that Zhao Chengjun is favoring Tang Shishi. Most of it was Tang Shishi privately, not allowing Zhao Chengjun to accept a concubine, Zhao Chengjun was reluctant to refuse her, so she left.
Grandma Feng was very surprised. Zhao Chengjun was too spoiled for Teacher Tang, so spoiled that Grandma Feng thought it was fake, and Zhao Chengjun was deliberately acting. Grandma Feng thought about Tang’s identity as a teacher and she realized in an instant.
A good trick will be calculated. The queen mother sent a beauty to Zhao Chengjun, and wanted to use the beauty trick to capture Zhao Chengjun, Zhao Chengjun pretended to be in the middle of the trick, and then numbed the queen mother Yao with the hands of Master Tang. His Royal Highness Jing is really very scheming.
Sister Feng’s thoughts were endless, and she didn’t miss anything on the surface. Teacher Tang was still waiting for Madam Feng to reply. Madam Feng did not lose the face of Master Tang and said with a smile: “What the princess said is that if you marry a spouse, the princess should naturally follow King Jing’s arrangements.”
Master Tang breathed a sigh of relief. Grandma Feng represented the Queen Mother. Now Zhao Chengjun and the Queen Mother agree with Master Tang in turn. To refute Master Tang is to refute King Jing and the Queen Mother to see who can use the concubine’s affairs as a raft.
Lu Yufei was stunned. She took the risk of being the first bird to come forward, just to diminish the status of Master Tang and muddy the pool of the palace. Unexpectedly, Zhao Chengjun did not agree to accept a concubine, but instead excused Tang Shishi. In this way, instead of pushing Tang Shishi to an invincible ground.
For a while everyone was dumb, not knowing what to say. After Zhao Chengjun calmed down Master Tang, and felt that Master Tang’s shoulders slowly relaxed, he said unhurriedly: “After talking about the princess, it’s time to talk about you. Who said these things in front of the princess just now made the princess angry. ?”
A few beauties were taken aback, and they knelt down immediately: “The prince calms down his anger. It is the slave family. But the slave family is very kind, and this is all for the sake of the palace…”
“Prince Jing Mansion doesn’t need your kindness.” Zhao Chengjun said coldly, “You are so enthusiastic that staying in the Mansion Jing was wasted. You should go back to Jinling. There are many people in the palace, which is more suitable for you to display.”
The women were shocked, even Master Tang’s eyes widened in surprise. Master Tang thought that Zhao Chengjun would not pay attention to these women. Because of the face of Mother Feng and Queen Mother Yao, Master Tang could not punish them severely. In the end, most of them opened one eye and closed the other. Who knows, Zhao Chengjun personally handled these beauties and sent them back to Jinling.
The beauties were shocked and frightened, not caring about their good manners, and kowtow quickly on the ground: “The prince is forgiving, we were wrong, and we will never dare anymore. The prince, it was me who was impolite and annoyed the princess, but other than that No big mistake. If the prince sends us back to Jinling, what face do we have to meet the empress dowager? Please think twice.”
“It’s a big mistake for you to upset her.” Zhao Chengjun’s attitude was still resolute. Several beautiful women knelt in front of him to plead, but his heart was as if made of iron, and he was unmoved, “Grandma Feng, this I can’t accept a few women. It’s just that the mother is leaving on the day. It’s better to take them on the road and be a good company on the road.”
Mother Feng was calm on the surface, but analyzed quickly in her heart. What exactly does Zhao Chengjun want to do? These women, will she accept them or not?
Madam Feng ignored the interceding people on the ground, and her eyes fell silently on Master Tang’s body. Master Tang’s eyes were weak and innocent, and she quietly stared at Grandma Feng. Grandma Feng watched for a while, and she was heartbroken to protect her car. Tang Shishi has been pushed to this position. Regardless of whether Zhao Chengjun is true or fake, they must protect Tang Shishi. Otherwise, all the efforts made in the past four years would have been lost.
Sister Feng didn’t believe that, Tang Shishi, such a charming and charming beauty, puts him next to King Jing every day, so he can really remain unmoved. As long as King Jing relaxes for a while, they will have a chance.
Grandma Feng made a decision in the light of flint and said: “The King Jing has ordered, but the old slave is disrespectful.”
The beauties lost power in an instant, and looked up at Grandma Feng in disbelief. A beauty Lihua cried with rain and said: “Mother, we were taught by you and brought out with your own hands. We entered the palace together with Master Tang, and went out together with Master Tang. Even if it is not as pleasing as Master Tang, we have been by your side for the past few years. Quite a lot. Does the mother only care for her, regardless of our life and death?”
Madam Feng hesitated, but she looked up and saw Master Tang leaning on the bed softly, quietly and beautifully, and she instantly strengthened her determination: “Be bold, don’t call the princess by name. You are so ignorant of etiquette, how to serve in the palace. The prince and the princess? Your highness calms down the anger, and the old slave will take them back to Jinling so that they can be disciplined. Princess, you can recover from the illness with peace of mind. Only when you take care of your body can the queen mother be at ease.
Teacher Tang smiled lightly, and at this point, she was fully victorious. Zhao Chengjun chose her, and even Mother Feng also chose to defend her.
These people thought that together they could force her to take concubines, but they didn’t get any good, and they lost everyone. Want to imitate her superior? Hehe, go back to the palace and explain to the Queen Mother slowly.
Master Tang was very happy, and his eyes brightened instantly. This was undoubtedly a loud slap, hitting these beauties, hitting Lu Yufei, and hitting all the maids in the palace who wanted to climb the bed.
This is the end of the fight against her, even the radish with the mud, no one wants to please.
Zhou Shunhua looked at the crying and making noises on the ground, completely unacceptable to the reality of the fellow beauty, and lowered his head deeper. Some of them didn’t participate in intimidating Master Tang, but what’s the use? The beauties sent from the court, except Master Tang, and the few who followed Zhao Zixun, everyone else had to get out.
This is a struggle in the backyard. It is either victory or defeat. There is no middle option at all.
Ren Yujun and Ji Xinxian looked at those people with sadness in their eyes. Things in the world are so unfair. Feng Qian was beaten to death for offending Master Tang. After Madam Feng came, she never asked a word. Now, just because these women obstructed Master Tang’s eyes, they were about to be sent back to Jinling facelessly. The beauties who were given gifts are returned again. Can those who wait for them have a good end?
But what can be done? King Jing is partial to Tang Shishi, and even Mother Feng and the Empress Dowager Yao are partial to her. She is so ordinary, she has nothing but her face.
It’s really no eyes.
Lu Yufei was completely shocked, and couldn’t keep his mouth shut for a long time. She thought that Master Tang had a mere appearance, relying on her stomach to dominate, and the sister-in-law of the Lu family also despised Master Tang, feeling that this princess was not taken seriously. As a result, she was extremely favored, not only did King Jing favor her, but even the court had no bottom line to indulge her.
King Jing and the court are clearly opposites. Master Tang is the real talent that can make the two sides who are mortal enemies love her together.
