After news spread that Lin Fufu personally prescribed medicines for several old concubines, those noble ladies of Beirong who were treated by Lin Fufu but did not prescribe medicines finally realized something.
The empress must have been annoyed by them, so she deliberately refused to prescribe them medicine.
Think about it again, why did the empress annoy them? Didn't they think that they reminded them openly and secretly that the Empress Empress, a woman from the Great Wei Dynasty, could not bear the pressure of the entire Beirong gentry in the end, and would eventually compromise
The backyard of Beirong Zuoxiang Mansion.
In the inner room of Mrs. Zuo Xiang, several noble women of Beirong were at a loss for what to do.
This lady of the Ministry of Officials of the Northern Rong Dynasty is tall and tall, with a long face and willow eyebrows. She looks like a middle-aged woman with dignity and dignity.
She is sitting on the right side of Madam Zuoxiang at the moment, looking at Madam Zuoxiang with a sad face, "Madam Zuoxiang, not only we people underestimated the current empress, but also all the adults in the court. her!"
Mrs. Zuo Xiang glanced at her and didn't say anything, but just motioned her to drink horse milk tea.
Seeing this, Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of Officials had no choice but to take a small sip of tea first.
"The lady of the Ministry of Officials is right. My servants have inquired clearly. That day, several old concubines went to look for our empress with great momentum. In the end, not only did they not persuade our empress, but they all smiled happily. Leaving the palace is actually because our Empress has also seen them and prescribed medicine!" Sitting on the right side of Zuo Xiang's wife, Right Xiang's wife also had a very ugly expression.
This Mrs. Right is the successor of the Right Prime Minister of Bei Rong. She is young and beautiful, but her temperament is not calm. In the past, because of political opinions, the Right Prime Minister of Bei Rong and the Left Prime Minister were at odds, and this Mrs. Right He also secretly looked down on Mrs. Zuo Xiang.
But now, in order to deal with Lin Fufu, this Mrs. Right, regardless of the grievances between the two families in the past, unexpectedly mixed up with Mrs. Zuo.
As soon as she said this, Mrs. Zuo Xiang said: "This lady has also heard about it. I also heard that those old concubines are no longer willing to enter the palace after using the prescription prescribed by the empress. gone."
"In this way, those old concubines will be bought by our empress?" Mrs. Right frowned and looked at Mrs. Zuo Xiang with her slender eyebrows.
Mrs. Zuo Xiang snorted coldly in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. After taking a sip of horse milk tea calmly, she said lightly: "Madam Right, even if those old concubines were picked up to go to the palace to rely on the old and sell the old, but It's not stupid either. Since they don't enter the palace now, they have their reasons."
Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of Officials and other women did not speak for a while after hearing Mrs. Zuo Xiang's analysis, they were all thinking in their hearts.
But Mrs. Youxiang sneered and said, "My lady won't believe it. Those outdated offshoots of the Huangfu royal family will willingly stand with our emperor? They don't want to send the noble daughters of their in-laws to the Beirong harem." ? Even Madam Ben wouldn’t believe it if she was killed!”
Mrs. Zuo Xiang couldn't help but frowned in disgust when she saw her being so outspoken, but she lowered her head on purpose, and no one saw the expression on her face.
"Madam Right, please be careful! It's fine for us women to talk nonsense together, don't say this casually outside!" Mrs. Zuo didn't want to talk to her at first, but she said it in Zuoxiang's mansion Such reckless words, in front of other ladies, she must also indicate her position.
At this time, Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of Officials smiled and reminded Mrs. Youxiang: "Madam Youxiang, you must not forget that before our empress married our majesty, she dared to make three people with different surnames who had always secretly supported our majesty The concubine made a disgraceful face. This ability is not something that ordinary people can have... From my point of view, those old concubines must have said something to their family after they went back. After losing those old concubines, I must not dare to stand out now!"
The Minister of the Ministry of Officials and Prime Minister Zuo stood on the same line, so Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of Officials also supported Madam Zuo Xiang, but her speaking level was obviously much higher than that of Mrs. Right.
But these words also secretly ridiculed Mrs. Right's simple and stupid mind.
When the Right Prime Minister was in the court, he had been secretly wooing the most important Minister of the Ministry of Officials among the six departments. Therefore, the wife of the Right Prime Minister had always treated Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of Officials very politely, but now seeing her helping Mrs. Zuo Xiang secretly ridiculed her , the face is very ugly at the moment.
It's just that she still didn't dare to tear herself apart with Mrs. Libu Shangshu, so she could only sneer and say: "Mrs. Libu Shangshu, you are too flattering those kings with different surnames! What are they? Those who were suppressed by the late emperor when he was alive never dare to raise their heads again." , now I want to stand out and take advantage of it, and I don't want to see if the three of them have that ability!"
Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of Officials couldn't help but frowned in disgust when she heard the words, and glanced at the right-hand lady speechlessly.
But when Mrs. Right saw that no one responded to what she said, she felt even more frustrated.
"Why don't you talk? Could it be that what my wife said is wrong? Let's not talk about those two families, just say that those two stupid little girls from Linwang's family dare to send them to the harem? Are there no bones left for fear of being eaten? "Madam Right is trying her best to create a sense of her own existence, but Madam Zuo is here, and she is still in the backyard of Prime Minister Zuo, which noble lady is willing to respond to her and offend Madam Zuo Xiang
Mrs. Zuo Xiang also saw that she was becoming less and less like her words, she frowned and looked at her, but her tone was very gentle, "Madam Right, you are still a little younger, and some things only look at the surface. Say that Princess Lin is not Is she also very smart? You see, she is spreading the benefits of our empress everywhere now, and she has given up the idea of sending her daughter to the harem long ago, but His Majesty the Emperor soon let him run some properties. It's not accidental!"
Mrs. Right turned her eyes when she heard the words, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, she looked at Mrs. Zuo and asked, "Then according to Mrs. Zuo, there is no one in our family who has to think about cultivating the family carefully." Is your daughter sent to the harem to be a nobleman? Everyone has followed the example of Princess Lin and dismissed this idea, and our gentlemen will be able to win the favor of His Majesty the Emperor!"
Regarding her rude words, Mrs. Zuo Xiang was very well-mannered and did not get angry, but it made the other wives who were on good terms with Mrs. Zuo Xiang frown again and again.
After thinking for a while, Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of Officials continued: "Madam Youxiang, Madam Zuoxiang naturally didn't mean that, but I just want to tell you that our empress is a heroine, not something we stupid women can understand." You see, first a few concubines with different surnames were sent out of the palace in disgrace, then several old concubines of the royal family were invited out of the palace with smiles, and finally we were severely beaten by the empress She was kicked out of the palace after being slapped in the face, and more or less of the illnesses on us were hit by what she said, but she didn't prescribe any medicine for us... "
Before Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of Officials finished speaking, Mrs. Zuo Xiang nodded lightly, "Our empress is courageous and resourceful, rich and powerful, and most importantly, His Majesty the Emperor only loves her. We want to make our family Sending the noble girls carefully cultivated in the harem to the harem... It's difficult!"
Mrs. Right patted her hand on the small table, and sneered: "No matter how difficult it is, we have to do this! How many infatuated emperors in our Beibei history only had the queen as a woman? Even the most infatuated emperor, Then will the concubine enter the harem to spread branches and leaves for the royal family?"
Seeing that she couldn't make sense, Madam Zuo Xiang didn't bother to explain to her, so she just asked her: "Then what are you going to do?"
Mrs. Right was stunned.
She listened to her master today because she wanted to discuss an idea with Mrs. Zuo Xiang, but Mrs. Zuo Xiang asked her how to do it, what could she do
In a blink of an eye, she chuckled, but restrained her temper, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Zuo Xiang is old and has experienced many things. I listen to you. If you say what to do, then do it!"
Mrs. Zuo Xiang sneered in her heart, and the other wives also had unpredictable smiles on their faces. This was the reason why they were unwilling to make friends with Mrs. Right.
Except for that mouth, nothing can be expected from her.
"Mrs. Xiangye, I think it's better to slow down this matter. If you make an appointment to go to the palace to accompany the empress, you can also ask her to prescribe medicine for us to cure those difficult diseases on us. It is serious that the illness that Yan said has been cured." Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of Officials said suddenly.
Mrs. Zuo Xiang glanced at her and nodded secretly.
"Do you want to ask her for medical treatment first?" Mrs. Youxiang was anxious, and she glared at Mrs. Shangshu, an official official, and said displeasedly, "Thanks to you, madam, you figured it out. So we just retreated like this?"
Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of Officials saw her so impatient, her brows frowned deeper, but she had to suppress the anger in her heart, and explained in a soft voice, "Madam You misunderstood, if we can cure our illness If it is cured, it will also prove how powerful our queen's medical skills are... "
"No matter how good the medical skills are, so what? My wife doesn't believe that our empress's medical skills are the best in the world, number one in the world!" Mrs. Right was not convinced, she frowned and sneered.
Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of Officials shook her head, she really didn't want to continue talking with her, a stupid woman.
It's no wonder that this stupid woman can't be favored by the right minister, and has been doting on the few concubines in the family.
Seeing this, Mrs. Zuo Xiang could only sigh, and glanced at Mrs. Right, who was disconvinced, and her tone was a little impatient, but she also raised a little bit of the young man's point, "Don't you just think about it, don't care about her?" Is her medical skills the best in the world? As long as her medical skills are good enough, how many of our noble ladies in Beirong can be her opponents? Don't give up, doctors and poisoners belong to the same family!"
Mrs. Left Prime Minister's pointed words made all the wives silent, including Mrs. Right Prime Minister of course.
At this moment, her face was already flushed. She had never thought about this question, but she felt even more ashamed when Mrs. Zuo Xiang sympathized and said it in a teaching tone.
