It’s Better to be the Empress Dowager

It is not appropriate to say that the mother-in-law, after all, Jing Wang and Miss Xi Jia are not married. However, depending on King Jing's attitude, he was very polite to this Madam Xi.

Zhao Chengjun had already finished speaking during Tang Shishi's cranky thinking. Mrs. Zheng smiled heartily: "The prince can take care of the old man by doing these things with the old man. The prince can rest assured that the old man will take out all his wealth, so that he can live as a son and look at him, so he must choose a suitable concubine for the palace."

"Thank you, Mrs. Zheng." Zhao Chengjun said in a faint voice, "I'll tell you, I already have a candidate in my heart, Miss Lu's is very good."

"The prince is talking about Lu Yufei?" Mrs. Zheng thought for a while and nodded, "Yes, that girl is smart and smart, very strong, and has a more heroic temperament than an ordinary woman. She can be a concubine, but she can hold her up."

"Marriage events are not trivial. Today I have Mrs. Lao's hands. When we wait for the meeting, I will trouble the old lady to find a clean place and explore Mrs. Lu's mouth for me. If Mrs. Lu agrees, after a few days, the king will come personally. Propose a marriage for Zhao Zixun."

Mrs. Zheng knew it, and said with a smile: "My old man understands. The prince is interested."

Master Tang also understood, she was right, Lu Yufei was indeed the concubine. She raised her eyebrows and glanced at Zhou Shunhua from the corner of her eye.

Zhou Shunhua lowered his head, looking in a bad mood. Also, a teenager with a good impression is about to marry a regular wife. I am afraid that no one in the world can smile and bless each other. In particular, the two people have become affectionate with each other, and Zhao Zixun also has a good impression of Zhou Shunhua.

The gifted men and beautiful ladies liked each other, but were beaten by the evil force, Zhao Chengjun was the evil force. Tang Shishi relied on Zhao Chengjun's inability to see, and quietly gave him a glance.

This person didn't do personnel affairs and insisted on letting Zhao Zixun marry his concubine. How much trouble did this cause Master Tang? He deserves not to marry a wife.

Zhao Chengjun was listening to Mrs. Zheng. Tang Shishi thought he was very concealed. In fact, Zhao Chengjun knew about it. Zhao Chengjun slowly rubbed the rim of the cup, then suddenly put the teacup on the table and said, "The tea is cold."

Tongxiu was startled and immediately stepped forward and said, "It's the servant's negligence. The prince will forgive the sin and the servant will get a new tea."

"No need." Zhao Chengjun kept his eyes still, and pointed to the outside room casually, "Let her go."

Everyone inside and outside was quiet. Master Tang looked around and asked tentatively: "Me?"

Zhao Chengjun said coldly: "Otherwise?"

Master Tang’s disillusionment was disillusioned, and she quickly put away her resentment, with a well-behaved face: "Yes."

Master Tang lowered his head into the inner room, held up the teapot, smiled and saluted King Jing again, and quickly slid outside. Mrs. Zheng was still holding a water glass in her hand. She looked at Tang Shishi's back, turned her head, and looked at Zhao Chengjun in amazement.

Zhao Chengjun's expression remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "She is stupid, bold and bold. If she doesn't care about her, she will surely cause some trouble. I hope the old lady will forgive me."

Mrs. Zheng smiled cooperatively, but thoughts flashed in her eyes. Madam Xi was drinking tea, but when she heard King Jing's words, she couldn't drink it anymore.

Madam Xi knew about these women, they were sent by Miyagi to "serve" King Jing. Mrs. Xi didn't pay attention to these people. Based on her understanding of King Jing, King Jing would not touch the people sent by the Queen Mother.

But now, Mrs. Xi is not sure. Who is Zhao Chengjun? How could he care about a little maid, but today, he deliberately asked a woman to change tea and said so long.

Does this not care?

Master Tang changed the pot of "hot tea" and walked back slowly. As soon as she walked in, she felt the atmosphere of the flower hall was completely different. Master Tang walked inside, and sure enough, a guest came.

Xi Yunchu stood beside her mother, lowered her head shyly and timidly, smiling while listening to Mrs. Zheng saying that she was "the eighteenth change of women". Madam Xi shook Xi Yunchu's hand and said in a grotesque voice: "Old lady, don't praise her, don't look at her quietly now, and don't know how to bother me in private. I want to drive her out so that I can be clean. A few days."

Mrs. Zheng smiled and said: "You mean to say, if Sister Chu is gone, you still don't know how to think of her. Sister Chu is already fifteen this year, and there are some people outside who are waiting to marry, and wait until next year. The first sister's marriage is settled, let's see how you cry."

Madam Xi laughed, Xi Yunchu pursed his lips, and whispered: "Old lady, don't make fun of me."

"How is this teasing?" Mrs. Zheng said, "It is only natural for a man to be married and a woman to marry. Especially the first-time sisters are good-looking and first-class women. I don't know who will be blessed in the end. To marry you."

Xi Yunchu said that he didn't agree, but his eyes quietly looked at Zhao Chengjun. Master Tang said "Yo" in his heart. No wonder Xi Yunchu didn't show her a good face just now. It turned out that it was because of Zhao Chengjun?

She sighed in her heart, and on the surface still pouring tea to Zhao Chengjun respectfully: "Master, your hot tea."

Master Tang emphasized the word "hot". Zhao Chengjun's face could not see the joy or anger, but when he saw it was her, he said nothing, and silently took the tea cup.

Madam Xi looked at Zhao Chengjun, then at her daughter, and said unconsciously: "In a blink of an eye, the children have grown up, and the eldest son has reached the age of negotiating marriage. However, the wedding is not a trivial matter after all. Do it for you, but waiting for the six ceremonies, arranging banquets, and entertaining guests in the future, there will be more things. There is no princess in the palace, and it is not a problem after all."

Speaking of the princess, everyone in the room was silent. Mrs. Zheng quietly glanced at King Jing's face and looked up. Zhao Chengjun rubbed the pattern on the tea cup, and after a while, he said: "The wedding is managed by Tongxiu. She has served in the forbidden court for a long time, and she has a good understanding of red and white etiquette. The troubled old lady told Mrs. Lu that the wedding will be arranged by the king. Properly, let her rest assured."

Zhao Chengjun told Mrs. Lu, in fact, this was for Mrs. Xi. Madam Xi's face became stiff, she refused to give up, and continued: "Aunt Tongxiu came out of the palace. There is no doubt about her ability. However, it is inconvenient for such a big palace without a serious female master. No matter what else, just say. For things such as welcoming and sending off, offering gifts in sacrifices, the princess needs to come forward. Your Royal Highness, the concubine knows that you are a lover, and there are accidents between Sister Wan and Ms. Li, and your heart will not pass. But, people After all, you have to look forward. There should also be a caring person by your side who knows the cold and the hot."

After Mrs. Xi finished speaking, the needle dropped inside the house. Mrs. Zheng lowered her head to drink tea, Tongxiu lowered her eyes to look at the bricks, Tang Shishi noticed something was wrong, and quietly retreated behind Zhao Chengjun, even her breathing was lightened.

Mrs. Xi finally realized that she had passed, but she couldn't take back what she had said. She forcibly supported the table and looked at Zhao Chengjun with a calm expression. Xi Yunchu hid behind his mother. Although he lowered his head, he couldn't help looking at Zhao Chengjun from the corner of his eyes, his eyes full of expectation.

In the tight silence, Zhao Chengjun spoke slowly. He said: "I don't intend to get married, so the princess doesn't have to. It's the same when the imperial concubine enters the door and let her take care of the central feeder in the palace."

Xi Yunchu's cheeks suddenly lost their blood color, Madam Xi was a little anxious, and quickly said, "How can this be the same?"

However, Zhao Chengjun had already lost his patience. He stood up, and the female family members followed up when he saw it. Naturally, the rest of Madam Xi couldn't continue. Zhao Chengjun nodded to Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Xi, and said: "The two continue to talk. If there is something to do with this king, we will leave."

Madam Xi could only smile, and said: "The concubine is here to send King Jing to you."

As the internal and external servants walked together, Zhao Chengjun strode away as everyone bowed. After Zhao Chengjun left, Xi Yunchu slowly stood up, his face completely pale.

Mrs. Zheng pretended not to see, and smiled and talked about the flowers of the palace. Tongxiu stepped forward to withdraw the tea, and Master Tang, who was the nearest station, couldn't help but help. She personally poured the cup of tea to King Jing, but she took it down again without a sip.

When Master Tang was walking away with the tea cup, he vaguely felt that someone from behind gave her a fierce look. Master Tang pretended to be ignorant and went out with the plate unhurriedly. Behind, Mrs. Xi used her sleeves to cover up, and quietly pinched Xi Yunchu's hand.

Xi Yun was in pain, and reluctantly retracted his gaze. Mrs. Xi stared at Xi Yunchu warningly when people were not paying attention.

King Jing is gone, and there is no need for their group of wall flowers to exist. Master Tang left by holding the tea, just not having to go back. After a while, several beauties in it also came out one after another.

Feng Qian found Master Tang, held Master Tang’s arm affectionately, and asked, "Sister Tang, why did you go by yourself again?"

Master Tang quietly rolled his eyes and smiled on the surface: "Miss Xi doesn't seem to like me. I was afraid that it would block Miss Xi's eyes, so I hid away."

"Sister, what are you talking about? You are smart and beautiful. How can there be people who don't like you in the world?" Feng Qian said, asking casually, "Sister, King Jing just said he didn't intend to get married. Is this true? ?"

"Who knows." Teacher Tang responded lightly, she didn't know, and she didn't care. But from the perspective of self-interest, Tang Shishi really didn't want another princess in the palace.

Otherwise, it would be enough for them to toss about every day.

If that person is still Xi Yunchu...heh, that would be even more interesting.

Feng Qian obviously thought of Xi Yunchu too. She secretly observed Master Tang’s expression and asked: "Sister Tang, do you think Mrs. Xi intends to renew the engagement? The first fiancé of the prince is Miss Xi’s family, but it’s a pity that her sister is unlucky. , She died of illness without going through the door. But the second lady seems to have a vice-photographer."

Master Tang looked at Feng Qian quietly, and suddenly asked, "You seem to be paying attention to the prince?"

"No." Feng Qian slammed Master Tang angrily, and whispered, "I obviously care about Sister Tang. My sister is now serving well in front of the prince. Although other beauties are constantly playing and making troubles, but fortunately, they are not bad-hearted. , I am used to being a lifeless, such a day is very good for me, don't change again. If a new princess comes, who knows what will become in the future."

Master Tang smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, with my sister's appearance, even if a new princess comes in, I won't treat you harshly. Sister Feng doesn't have to worry about this."

"But..." Feng Qian bit her lip and said in a low voice, "The prince said clearly, he has no intention of getting married."

Master Tang snorted and made no secret of his disdain: "All men who have lost their wives in the world say so, but which man do you think delayed them from marrying the heirs? Just listen to the words of the man. If you really believe it, you are a fool."

Especially a man like King Jing, who is young and powerful, and holds great power.

Feng Qian gave a cry, unable to see her inner thoughts. Tang Shishi and Feng Qian didn't want to greet other people, they took a secluded road, and never thought that they happened to hit Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun.

The four of them suddenly met, and they were all startled. Zhou Shunhua was the first to react, smiled, and said, "It turns out to be Miss Tang and Miss Feng. Recently, you two got closer."

Master Tang did not take it lightly and went back: "Not as deep as Sister Zhou and Sister Ren Jin Lan."

It was hard for Ren Yujun to look good at Master Tang. She frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"

"It's too noisy outside, come and hide in the garden." As he said, Master Tang sneered slightly, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not bored enough to follow you."

Zhou Shunhua's face was not good. She was about to prevent Master Tang from quarreling with Ren Yujun. A woman's voice suddenly came from the road outside: "Yun Chu, are you telling the truth?"

"Of course." Xi Yunchu's voice sounded like someone owed money, "Congratulations, Miss Lu, I got her wish and became the concubine of the world. In the future, Concubine Wang Shizi will help me to settle down."

Several women's exclamations sounded, and one woman was very surprised and asked: "Is this true? My sister is really going to become a concubine?"

"What was said by King Jing himself, could it be fake?" Xi Yunchu's voice sounded impatient, and his tone was not good, but the other women didn't care at all, and everyone was surprised and envious. They surrounded Lu Yufei. Keep talking flattery. With a smile in Lu Yufei's voice, he said, "It's still not a bit of a word, don't talk nonsense."

Several ladies talked and laughed and walked away. There were dense bushes planted on both sides of the main road. They were busy talking again, so they didn't see anyone behind the trees.

Ren Yujun wanted to remind him, but when he heard the words Shi Zifei, his voice suddenly disappeared. The four of them kept silent, none of them spoke, and they listened to all the conversation outside in silence.

After Lu Yufei, Xi Yunchu and others walked over, none of the four spoke first. Finally, Master Tang said: "The elder son is about to marry the concubine.

Ren Yujun was originally lost, and when she heard the words of Master Tang, she immediately woke up, showing her precautions: "We take care of the affairs of the world's son, so I don't need to worry about girl Tang."

Master Tang curled her lips and smiled, she slowly approached, looked at Ren Yujun's eyes, and said slowly: "I have to go, you can control me?"

When they were talking here, there was a sudden plop from outside, and then the girls panicked: "Come on, Miss Lu fell into the water!"
