Chapter 607: Use retreat to advance

Views:

"Even if the queen wants to beat the concubines and the others, the timing is really good." Mrs. Zhaowu, who came in a hurry, looked at Gu Zhen and sighed. Now that her daughter has become the queen, her mother must be careful to shut up. Otherwise, she would ask Gu Zhen directly if he was dizzy, "Can you please come earlier? When Chu Wang Diandong just got sick, when the swimmer Chu Wang Diandong recovered, the attack happened, even if everyone knew it. Ming Imperial Concubine Shu, Concubine De, they are all unjustly accused. No matter how high or low they are, I will always take care of your feelings! But at that time, King Chu Diandong recovered, and you were fine too. If there is no proof, then I am afraid that Your Majesty Does Dongbuqi feel sorry for them?"

Gu Zhen said gloomily: "Before, the King of Chu was ill, and I went to take care of him. Later, I felt uncomfortable myself, so I stayed in bed for some time. I waited until I recovered before I had the energy to take care of him, okay?"

Mrs. Zhaowu said: "Then what are you asking about? When you took over the power, did you say why you took over the power? It means you are fine and don't need their help to share the burden, right? There is nothing wrong with that, but You also know that Bidong always wanted to be cruel to those concubines, especially the imperial concubine! In the past, the palace affairs were always shared by the imperial concubine, and several urgent matters were handled by her, and they were handled well. Then Now you can simply say that you can personally take care of the Sixth Palace in the East, and ask her to retreat to the East. If she doesn't say anything, the Sixth Palace will think that you are crossing the river and burning the bridge. What's more, as a noble concubine, you don't want to say anything?"

"... It's useless to say that now, so let me just tell you what to do!" Gu Zhen said in a self-deprecating tone, "It's all like that anyway."

"If you don't explain it clearly to your Majesty, how will your Majesty know what you should do if Dongci encounters something similar?" Mrs. Zhaowu Bo sighed and said, "You Pinghong took back the palace power. Of course everyone feels that those few have worked hard to share your worries. But what if you didn’t take back power because something went wrong with them? Are you too honest? Didn’t you say that the real culprit who murdered the king of Chu’s palace has never been found? Why can’t you ask the concubine and the others to blame you for that matter? ? The Sixth Palace has always been taken care of by them. Even before I was crowned queen, I didn’t have palace power in my hands, so they started to take care of things. If something goes wrong in the Ming Palace, who should I turn to instead of them? "

Gu Zhen opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment: "... When the King of Chu fell ill, I personally asked the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine gave me some ideas."

Mrs. Zhaowu Bo was quite speechless: "So you were embarrassed to fall out with the imperial concubine over that matter? Madam, the fights in the harem are not like yours! Look at the imperial concubine, she saw the former queen when she entered the palace. It is said that You are all worried about Bi Fou! What happened next? After the Ji family was overthrown and the former empress lost power, what kind of face did she have? At that time, she was the empress dowager, and she was just pretending, but was she really respectful? You "Please don't be embarrassed all the time. What do you think you would do to fight someone like her?"

Seeing that Gu Zhen didn't shut up, he added, "And before you moved your legs, did you mention your purpose? Didn't you just think of making trouble when you were angry for a moment, without thinking about the consequences of making trouble?"

"I..." Gu Zhen pondered for a while and said slowly, "I don't want to establish my authority."

A trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, "The King of Chu looks like he doesn't even know the real murderer! Your Majesty Dong is wrong and I don't care about it, and even my descendants on the east side of the palace are not taken seriously! If I continue to do what I did before, I will be called Liu." The palace thinks that he is a soft-tempered person who can easily keep his mouth shut. Even if there are ten or eight emperors at his knees, how can he stop the plots from all directions? I am as old as Ming, and after all these years in the palace, I have no hope. It’s enough to make Your Majesty Dong look so cruel. I just want to call him Sixth Palace, so that everyone in the front and back palaces will know that even though I rely on my family to support my family, I can’t be bullied by anyone!”

"The heirs to my knees are also untouchable!"

"Your idea is very good, but why didn't you explain it when you took over the power?" Mrs. Zhaowu Uncle was very sorry. It has been almost ten years since Gu Zhen entered the palace, and he has made no achievements or made any demands. Zhaowu Uncle's Mansion is in the east If it's because of that daughter, there's no hope.

So from the beginning, it was decided to let her spend her confinement behind closed doors and concentrate on raising the emperor's heir into the East Palace.

In addition to the lack of Gu Zhen's city residence, the Lord asked whether he also thought that Gu Zhen himself had great interests in the Sixth Palace of Weijia.

If I had known she would think so, my family would naturally have planned a good plan for her.

At this moment, he sighed, "You said at that time, how dare the concubines and the others dare to openly look for trouble for you? Anyone who dares to look for trouble for you must have a guilty conscience, or they may have plotted to murder the king of Chu!"

Not only that, but the hot potato who was looking for the consort for Princess Minghui’s palace was no longer the queen’s turn. “Please tell me that the real culprit who murdered the King of Chu has not been found yet, please.” There is nothing else in mind. Furthermore, as a queen, you can’t see who in the sixth palace harmed the prince on your knees. How can you dare to give the eldest princess palace a look? If you say that, Dong Dong must be speechless! "

Gu Zhen quickly asked: "Then why am I going to tell Bidong now...?"

"That's definitely not possible." Uncle Zhaowu said, "You have already met him and then you say that. Don't you know if Bidong learned it from your family? Then he may think that your sudden takeover of power was not the intention of the family. So. How could Bidong not hold a grudge in his heart and think that we are deliberately trying to manipulate him? You don’t know Dongchang who is resented by Bidong."

Gu Zhen frowned and said, "Then now...?"

"You can take a step back now." Mrs. Zhaowu Bo looked at her, "You will go to apologize to the king of Chu later. Just say that because of the king of Chu's palace, you doubted the concubines and the others, and took advantage of the opportunity of co-managing the Sixth Palace to wrong the king of Chu's palace. Not good. After I calmed down, I immediately took over and tried to find clues. But after some persuasion from my family, do you think it was a misunderstanding?"

"..." Gu Zhen's face was expressionless and he said nothing.

Mrs. Zhaowu Bo sighed: "Are you unwilling?"

Gu Zhen still didn't shut up, but his expression said everything.

"He is not willing to give in, and neither is his family. Although Uncle Zhaowu's house is not a top family, it is not a powerful family. And because of the Dingbei Army, we dare not make mistakes even if Ji's family is wrong during those years in the Imperial Capital. It's too harsh." Mrs. Zhaowu Bo said seriously, "Who is Concubine Min? How dare you be so disrespectful? Is there nothing you can do about it? She is the only one who loves her the most. The most important thing is that we hold each other's legs like that. It is difficult for a family with military power to have a good relationship. Especially if you are not like the late emperor, just look at Ji's affairs and you will know that you have offended the emperor!"

"Although tomorrow the emperor will use him to serve the Gu family, he will be very tolerant and tolerant of me and the Gu family."

"But if that's the case, we will become even more discreet!"

"Otherwise, we were so happy at that moment, and the Emperor won't need us anymore. Then... how can I and him meet like Mingyue?"

Gu Zhen said sadly: "If Ming Ren, Ming Hou also begs for patience, but how long will it last?"

"Your Majesty Dong is not a human being, he will also grow old." Mrs. Zhaowu Bo stretched out her legs to hold her legs and comforted her in a low voice, "You will take good care of the emperor's heir. When the Dongdong Palace is established in the future and the Eastern Palace becomes stronger... At that time, you Just look at Ru Ming’s loving mother, the Queen Mother. How about the Queen Mother who has an unjustified reputation? Who dares to offend her in Dongdong? The Queen Mother is not related to Bidong by blood, but her status and seniority are there. Including Bidong, who dares to neglect her? At that time, what will Concubine Min be? Whether she can be a concubine in peace depends on your face! "

"But what if the emperor changes his position to another queen?" Gu Zhen asked, "Yongwanzhe thinks that the prince under my care is good, and thinks that Concubine Min or someone else's prince is more suitable for that position. Then I will Say, what’s the point of being patient with me and my family?”
