Outrageous
Emperor Xuanping was rarely in such a good mood and interest.
Queen Liang stood aside with a smile and occasionally laughed in a low voice with Queen Pei: "I rarely see the emperor as happy as he is. In the future, my mother often summoned her cousin Rong and A Yuan and Aman to the palace, and the palace would also look lively."
Queen Pei smiled and looked at Queen Liang: "I didn't expect that the queen likes children so much. When the filial piety period comes, the queen and the emperor will complete the family and give birth to a royal grandson or granddaughter as soon as possible, so that the Ai family can enjoy the joy of having fun with their grandchildren."
Queen Liang had a thin-skinned face and suddenly had a pretty face red.
On that night, Empress Liang accompanied Emperor Xuanping for dinner and suggested with a smile: "I look at me, my mother likes the child very much. Today, A Yuan and Aman entered the palace, and the mother was very happy."
"However, A Yuan and Aman are the sons of foreign ministers, so it is not convenient to enter the palace from time to time. It is better to let the second emperor sister-in-law bring Heng Ge'er to the palace often to accompany her mother."
Queen Liang said this purely because of filial piety.
In the eyes of Queen Liang, Empress Pei was widowed in the deep palace and missed the late emperor, and was quite lonely and lonely. Raising a grandson by his side can also relieve loneliness.
The most suitable one is Brother Heng. Even if the second prince makes mistakes, he is Queen Pei's own son. Brother Heng is Queen Pei's grandson.
For some reason, Emperor Xuanping's smile faded.
Neither nodded nor said no.
After entering the palace, Emperor Xuanping treated her very well. This was the first time she showed such a cold expression.
Queen Liang's heart skipped a beat. She knew that she had said it wrong. Her beautiful face showed a little panic and uneasy: "Did I say it wrong? Please calm down."
Emperor Xuanping looked at Empress Liang with a confused look on his face, and his heart softened, and he whispered: "Ruyue, I know you have a good intention. However, the second emperor's brother made a big mistake back then. The mother hated him. Brother Heng was a good child, but when she saw Brother Heng, the mother must remember the second emperor."
"So, be careful in front of your mother."
Queen Liang whispered: "Yes, I know. Sorry, I shouldn't have any random ideas."
Queen Liang quickly stood up and left, but Emperor Xuanping did not try to keep him as he used to, and nodded.
After Queen Liang stepped down, all the expressions of Emperor Xuanping disappeared and he remained silent for a long time without saying anything.
He was too wishful thinking. He thought that Queen Liang would accept Cheng Jinrong without any grudges and liked to be close to her as a sister.
For Empress Liang, Cheng Jinrong was a very favored minister. A Yuan and Aman were both sons of "foreign ministers". Perhaps, Empress Liang was still wondering in her heart that he and Empress Pei were too fond of Cheng Jinrong...
After pouring this basin of cold water tonight, he suddenly became much more calm and awake.
At this moment, he finally understood why Cheng Jinrong was unwilling to join the palace to work.
The existence of Queen Liang in the harem is different from before. It would be fine if Cheng Jinrong occasionally entered the palace. If she was with Queen Pei every day, how could Queen Liang not be suspicious?
...
Early the next morning, Queen Liang went to Renhe Palace to pay tribute.
Queen Mother Pei saw something was wrong at first glance.
Queen Liang is young and beautiful, without the need for rouge, and is also a good color. Today, she was rarely applied with powder, and a hint of gloom appeared in her respectful expression.
Queen Pei asked in a warm voice: "The queen looks less beautiful today than she used to be. Could it be that she is in a bad state?"
Queen Liang was still young and not very cunning, and her smile was a little reluctant: "The daughter-in-law is in good health, and she is worried about her mother."
Empress Pei's heart moved slightly, and her voice became gentler: "Are you having a quarrel with the emperor? The emperor is young and energetic, and it is inevitable that there will be times when he is not considerate enough. The queen should be more considerate."
Queen Liang's eyes were slightly red, and her voice was choked: "It was because of her daughter-in-law's carelessness that made the emperor feel unhappy. No wonder the emperor, it's all the daughter-in-law who blamed her for not speaking carefully. "
Queen Mother Pei didn't take much effort and quickly asked about the reason for the incident.
Queen Liang did not look up and never saw the slight coldness in Queen Pei's eyes: "...the daughter-in-law also felt sorry for her mother's loneliness. Seeing that her mother likes her children, she advised the emperor that Brother Heng would enter the palace to accompany her mother, so that Renhe could also make the palace lively. Unexpectedly, the emperor felt a little sad after hearing these words."
As he said that, Queen Liang wiped the corners of her eyes with a veil and looked up carefully at Empress Dowager Pei: "I would like to forgive my daughter-in-law for her rash things."
In an instant, the coldness in Queen Pei's eyes faded away, and she showed a kind smile: "So that's it. You are filial, how could the Ai family blame you?"
"Heng Ge'er is indeed a good child. He started studying this year, and the Ai family was inconvenient to let him enter the palace every day. From now on, every five days, Jiang will bring Heng Ge'er to the palace to pay tribute to the Ai family."
Queen Liang was both surprised and happy, and hurriedly said, "It's good that the queen mother doesn't bother her daughter-in-law to have random ideas."
Empress Dowager Pei smiled and said, "Why are you making a random idea? In the eyes of the Ai family, this idea is very good." After a pause, he said, "The emperor, if the Ai family is empty, he will also talk about him. It is okay for the couple to speak in the same place, it is better to be lighter or heavier. It is his fault to say that he is not."
Queen Liang was moved and hurriedly stood up to thank her: "My mother feels so sorry for her daughter-in-law, and she dares not be accused of taking it."
Empress Pei comforted Queen Liang again with kind words, and the young Queen Liang was moved to tears.
In private, Empress Dowager Pei called Emperor Xuanping and sighed in a low voice: "Xiao Liu, Liang knows nothing. Why do you have to be angry with her for this little thing?"
Emperor Xuanping pursed his lips and whispered: "Mother, I am not angry with her, but I am too angry with me. My cousin Rong did not go to the palace to serve, but went to the Imperial Hospital office. Obviously, I thought of this a long time ago. My cousin was willing to think that Liang would like Rong very much and would like A Yuan and Aman..."
"I don't like it." Empress Pei sighed again: "However, she is the queen and has a noble status. Jinrong is a minister, so she is also a courteous person to Jinrong."
"Actually, the queen is right. Brother Heng is a good child. From then on, the Ai family often summoned him to the palace."
"And Kang Ning's daughter is also often summoned to the palace in the future. In this way, the incident of A Yuan and Aman entering the palace will not be so eye-catching."
Brother Heng is his nephew and Qiao Jie'er is his niece. Empress Dowager Pei summoned them to the palace, so Emperor Xuanping would naturally not object.
However, he always felt a little guilty: "Mother, I'm sorry. My son originally thought that when I sat on the dragon throne, I could do it with my heart. Now it seems that my son thought everything too easily and simply."
Even the incident of Cheng Jinrong entering the palace was not as convenient as before.
Queen Mother Pei smiled faintly: "From now on, Jinrong will enter the palace, so you can restrain yourself a little, so as not to continue to be suspicious in Liang's heart."
