Chapter 50 Fortune Telling

The spacious palace is covered with layers of curtains, and the gorgeous fragrant tripods and calligraphy and paintings are not all full of artistic mood. The most common here is intrigue, which is no different from the aunts and wives in the market.

Concubine Wang turned a deaf ear to her son's persuasion and still showed anger and dissatisfaction in front of the personal palace servants.

At this time, a woman in a long skirt next to her spoke, "Why don't you tell your Majesty about the miserable affairs of men and women to your Majesty, it's better to have her."

After hearing this, Concubine Wang imagined the misfortune of the queen's fall from favor and showed pleasure, but she soon returned to reality: this matter was hard because there was no real evidence, and the queen had the support of the King of Jin, so she was afraid that she would not steal the chicken and lose a handful of rice.

The woman who made the suggestion was someone who had been with Concubine Wang for a long time. Now, in addition to serving the Concubine, she also became a female official in Shangyi Bureau because of her favor, and she also had a certain status in the palace.

Her status in front of everyone comes from the imperial concubine, so she naturally tried her best to make suggestions for it: King Jin curled with Empress Gao, but because she was the queen. If she was not the queen, would the King Jin still care about her? What are the benefits?

When Concubine Wang lowered her head and thought, the woman said again: Empress Gao has always been on guard against the prince's position. I don't know how to harm us behind us. We kept giving in, but instead made others feel that we are easy to bully.When the Empress meets His Majesty, she doesn't need to be too clear. As long as she mentions that matter in ambiguous way, the more unclear the matter, the more suspicious it will be... No one feels that she will wear that hat, she will definitely not feel good.As long as Your Majesty resents Empress Gao, will it be easier to do anything in the future?

Concubine Wang looked a little cautious, and immediately stopped complaining, and still thought about the pros and cons. You are right. If Gao is not favored and has never given birth to the Li family's blood, why should I fight with me?This vixen is really hateful. Don’t blame me for being ruthless!

When the woman on the side saw that Concubine Wang adopted her trick, she excitedly gave her advice. The Empress mentioned the matter with His Majesty a little... A few days later, it was the 20th day of the first lunar month. His Majesty will formally issue an edict to enthrone His Highness as the crown prince, and then hold a banquet in Linde Hall. The royal relatives, nobles, civil and military ministers and people in the palace will participate, and Empress Gao and King Jin will definitely go there too.Then you will remind Your Majesty that those two of you will be suspicious.

After hearing this, Concubine Wang said happily: This is good!I did not wrongly accused them of stealing people, and could not catch my handle, but it could also have an effect.Humph, I just want to see, how many days can that woman look at the roof with her eyes!

……

It's time for dinner, I have the chance to meet Brother Fen.

Brother Fen is the most fond of sex and does not miss any entertainment opportunities. He holds a small banquet every night to gather important wives and concubines to have dinner together and then lets the palace prostitutes sing and dance to cheer up, and ask whoever is beautiful will be called to serve the bed.

Tonight was no exception. Concubine Wang, Empress Gao and others sat together to accompany Brother Fen to have fun.

Nowadays, the palace and court are full of factions, which are so complicated that many people are in a mess. However, Brother Fen on the throne is the most open-minded.

He was so happy to sit in the seat. He was so happy to see the exposed singing geniuses twisting away...

When he was the governor of Youzhou, he could only marry dozens of wives, and there was limited economic situation and there was not much room for choice. Even so, he couldn't afford to support him. Now that he became an emperor, there were not only three thousand beauties in the Daming Palace, but there were tens of thousands of young women here. He fucked whoever he wanted. He asked people to dance and pick people every night. In the past, those wives had been idle for a long time, and it was just like this if he was a god.

The delicacies were all over the place, and the beauties were full of seductive spring smiles. Brother Fen would occasionally stretch out his legs and wave his hands with joy.He was so proud that he was really a foolish emperor.

After having enough food and drink, Brother Fen waved. When the eunuch standing at the stand, he pointed to a beautiful singing girl and smiled quietly. The eunuch nodded and kept saying: Yes, yes, Your Majesty.I understand.

As the dinner was approaching, the musicians and singers dispersed one after another, followed by refreshments after dinner.The palace people removed the messy cups and plates on each table and replaced them with tea and small Tianshu and other refreshments.

At this time, the hall was quieter, and Concubine Wang took the opportunity to speak and said to Gao, sitting opposite him: I heard that the queen and King Jin went to Chengxiang Palace to see Princess Taiping today. Is her illness better?

Brother Fen is right between the two, so you can naturally hear it. In fact, Concubine Wang said it to him.

Gao turned his head slowly and said without changing his face: I still haven't woken up like that.

Concubine Wang showed a sneer, and she didn't like Gao's indifference. How could she pretend to be noble?

Although Gao is named the lord of the harem and has the highest status, because he is young, women like Concubine Wang who have been with Brother Fen for decades naturally do not have much awe of her. The bridge I have crossed is more than you.

This is probably because Gao always wears old, steady and luxurious dresses and dresses like that. If she dresses herself up in a delicate manner, she may not be able to suppress others.

Originally, Concubine Wang’s original plan was just a little mention tonight, and she was not in a hurry to let Brother Fen understand their affair immediately. However, when she saw Gao’s pretending to be a thousand miles away, she felt angry. She couldn’t help but say a few more words, deliberately laughing in a joking tone: I heard that the Queen and King Jin had been talking for a long time after talking, I wonder what you said?

Gao's face changed slightly, and he paused for a while before slowly saying: Who did Concubine Wang say nonsense? Why did I close the door?Besides, there are palace servants next to you.But what else can I say about Princess Taiping’s condition?Apart from that, what else can I say with the King of Jin?

Concubine Wang pointed to the opposite door with a cold smile and said: Of course, there is no need to close the palace in the palace. Besides, aren’t the slaves around the queen all yours? What dare they say?

Gao frowned and said coldly: What exactly do you want to say?

Concubine Wang smiled and said: No, I'm just chatting, curious about what the queen said to the King of Jin, don't worry.

Gao immediately shouted: Come on, call in the few people who came to Chengxiang Palace with me in the morning!

It’s all right to say this. Brother Fen should understand what the two women have to do. Unexpectedly, Brother Fen said: What are you quarreling?We have a meal for a family, so don’t make it more like a court, women are really troublesome!

Gao said angrily: It’s better to ask someone to ask clearly in person, so as not to feel uncomfortable when you listen to the gossip.

Concubine Wang was also angry and said angrily: Who are you talking about gossip?What am I wrong, or is it a creation out of nothing?Didn’t the Queen and King Jin stayed in Chengxiang Palace until noon before returning this morning?Your Majesty, you gave me some advice, what did I say wrong?

Brother Fen was not only not angry at this time, but was timid, probably because he mentioned Princess Taiping, and he was very awe of this aunt who underestimated him and took the throne.

Instead of giving a comment, he said kindly: Princess Taiping is my elder, and it is okay for the queen to care about it.Don’t argue, you all go home and rest, I… am a little tired.

Gao said stubbornly: Your Majesty will be here soon after a moment. You have to listen and you must figure it out.

Brother Fen said impatiently: What else is there to be unclear?You think I don’t understand, I understand very well!

Gao asked calmly: What does Your Majesty understand?

I want to make Chenghong the crown prince. You are afraid that your mother will be deposed as the queen because of her son, so I can't help but find someone to form an alliance to strengthen my momentum. I don't know yet?I just don’t know what you are doing. Why did I get rid of the troubles of the deceased?It is a serious matter for you to live your own lives. It is dangerous to fight over and over again. If you don’t believe it, think about the people and things that were not far away from our Tang Dynasty, and let’s do it yourself.

At this moment, several palace maids and eunuchs had already entered the hall and bowed down the steps together.

Gao turned his head and said to Concubine Wang: I've called you. If you have any questions, just ask them in front of His Majesty!

Concubine Wang said coldly: When did I say I would confront you in person? Everyone heard that, only the queen had to confront you again and again. What are you doing now when I push you to me?

Gao's face was cold and he didn't argue. He sat upright and said to the bottom: Answer whatever I ask you, Your Majesty is above. You must tell the truth, otherwise it would be a serious crime to deceive the emperor, understand?

The servants below kowtowed quickly and said: Yes, yes...

Gao nodded gently and asked: Where did I go after entering Chengxiang Palace this morning and what did I do?

A little eunuch said: The Empress went to the side hall on the side of the front hall and drank tea for a while; then the King of Jin came and spoke for a while.After saying that, we came back with the Empress.

Gao asked: Have you always been by my side?

The eunuch replied: Yes, the young men have always been by the side of the empress.

What did I say to King Jin?

The little eunuch thought for a while and said: First, he talked about His Highness Taiping's disease. He took the Yin-Yang Resurrection Pill... No, the King of Jin said that His Highness had eaten what elixirs he had, and then the Qi was open to the seven meridians and eight meridians. The small ones and the small ones didn't understand and could not remember them clearly.Then King Jin said that the stars in the sky have something to do with people on the earth and can be used for fortune telling. The zodiac sign of the empress is... When he was about to talk about Scorpio, he probably was unhappy when he remembered that the queen was unhappy, so he hurriedly changed his words, and the young one could not remember it clearly.

Concubine Wang smiled and said: King Jin is interesting, so he even told the queen fortune.

Gao's face was a little embarrassed, and so was Xue Chongxun. Just talk about the serious business. He talked about those things and was just a joke.

She turned her head and said: Now it’s clear, are there anything shameful about me and the King of Jin?

Concubine Wang said in surprise: When did I say that you have something shameful?

Gao snorted and said coldly: Concubine Wang, you should know a little bit about the superiors and inferiors, and question me at will?Do you really want to sit in this queen's position?
