Chapter 168: Three Women, One Play

The moonlight was bright, insects were chirping, and the palaces in the Forbidden City had been lit with lights. Against the backdrop of the lights, the entire palace looked very bright and beautiful.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty has loved your Majesty very much during this period. Your Majesty's position as Queen is unshakable." Xiaohuan inserted a gold hairpin on Queen Zhang's head and said with a smile.

Shaking her head gently, Queen Zhang said with a serious face: "Xiaohuan, whether it is outside or in this palace, if a woman wants to keep her status, there is only one way, and that is to have a son. Although now I am

Queen, the emperor also loves me because we are newlyweds, but what about five years from now? Ten years from now? When I get old and lose my beauty, then it will be uncertain."

Xiaohuan nodded thoughtfully and said with a smile: "What's the point? The empress will definitely give birth to a son, who will be the future prince."

Glancing at Xiao Huan behind her, Queen Zhang said with some emotion: "Xiao Huan, you have been with me since you were a child, and I can't bear to let you go, but after all, this palace is not the place where you should live. So be it! Live it.

I will talk to the emperor in a few days and ask you to go home! I will write a letter to dad and ask him to find a good family for you and get married! That is the life a woman should live."

"Your Majesty, I will not leave you. I have been by your side for so many years. How can you let me go?" Although Xiaohuan was moved, her face was full of reluctance and she said sadly.

"Silly girl, that's the life a woman should have. Look at the maids in this palace, what kind of life they live! Now I still have favor and status, but who knows what will happen in the future?

Go out of the palace! Find a good man to marry, that is the destination of a woman's life!" Seeing that Xiaohuan was about to speak again, Queen Zhang waved her hand gently.

, and then said: "Not to mention the distant concubines, let's just say that there are more than 40 concubines selected into the palace this time, in addition to me, pure concubines, and good concubines. Look at the current emperor, he thinks about the country, the country, and the country.

What he wants is his family, country and world, and he is a sage emperor. But for these women, it may not be a good thing. I am afraid that some people may not even be able to see the emperor in their lifetime."

Seeing the sadness of Queen Zhang's words, Xiaohuan smiled and said, "My dear, maybe this is the truth! Some things are destined and no one can change it."

Shaking her head gently, Queen Zhang said with a smile: "Maybe! Xiaohuan, don't worry! I will write a letter to my father. You are the person next to me, and my family will definitely find a good family for you.

, don’t worry!”

"I won't leave. If I leave, then there will be no one around the queen, and no one will talk about her." Xiaohuan shook her head vigorously, her attitude was very determined.

Seeing Xiaohuan's attitude, Queen Zhang could only shake her head and smile bitterly, without saying anything!

When Queen Zhang was preparing for the banquet, she might not have any burden in her heart, but for the other two people, she was very nervous. One of these two people was Concubine Duan Chun who lived in Changchun Palace.

"Your Majesty, the clothes have been smoked with fine red sandalwood incense!" A palace maid came to Concubine Duan Chun holding a piece of clothing and said respectfully.

After sniffing it gently, Concubine Duan frowned and said in a deep voice, "This doesn't smell good either? Ling'er, how did you do it?"

The maid on the side smiled softly and said calmly: "Your Majesty, I have already gone to inquire. The Emperor does not like things that are too fragrant. In the Emperor's bedroom, incense is never lit. So these clothes are just right.

, too much is not enough, if it is too fragrant and will bore the emperor, then the gain outweighs the loss."

Glancing at the maid behind her, Duan Guifei smiled and said happily: "It's good to have you by my side. After so many years, you are the most caring."

The maid smiled, saluted Concubine Duan, and then said respectfully: "Thank you, Concubine Duan, for your compliment."

"Okay, come here and help me get dressed." Calling the maids around her, Duan Guifei smiled softly, then turned around and asked: "Who is here today? Is there Concubine Lan?"

"Back to the empress, no. I asked the eunuchs who came to deliver the order. They were the empress, the empress, and the royal concubine." The maid smiled softly and replied respectfully.

Nodding slowly, Concubine Duan sighed and said in a deep voice: "Once you enter the palace gate, it's as deep as the sea. I don't know if the emperor is dissatisfied with us. He hasn't summoned either of us for so many days. Come to think of it,

We are all in the same boat."

Taking Concubine Duan's headdress, the maid smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I have asked about it. Before we entered the palace, the Emperor only loved Concubine Lan in this palace. But after the wedding, the Emperor doted on the Queen very much, and even now

They all come with the Queen to approve the memorials. So don’t be anxious, Madam, because someone will be anxious."

After taking a look at the maid, Duan Guifei smiled softly and said in a deep voice: "What do you know? If Concubine Lan can give birth to a son for the emperor, he will be the emperor's eldest son. If the queen has no son, then he will be the prince. Even so.

If the queen has a son, the status of the emperor's eldest son cannot be lowered, so as long as she can give birth to a son, no one can touch Concubine Lan's status. Unless the emperor wants to take action, but according to the emperor's love for her, I am afraid there is no such time.

"

"But I heard that the emperor loves the queen very much and rarely goes to Concubine Lan anymore. No one can say for sure what will happen from now on. If one day, it will be uncertain." The maid lowered her voice and spoke.

Concubine Duan whispered in her ear.

Slowly shaking her head, Concubine Duan said with a smile: "You! Don't think that everyone is a fool, the emperor is wise! My father told me back then that everything in this world has no master, as long as it has an master

Then no one would dare to rob it. When a beast in the mountains runs out, countless people will chase it, but after it is killed, no one will rob it. Why? That's because it has an owner. Before we entered

Before the palace, the emperor loved Concubine Lan, and no one could say anything because the emperor was just such a woman."

Glancing at the maid, Duan Guifei sighed softly and said in a deep voice: "But it's different now. The emperor has more women, and everyone wants to be favored more. But the emperor is just one, and he still treats most of them every day.

If you spend most of your time on military and national affairs, then some battles are inevitable, just like what my father once said, there are more wolves and less meat!"

Frowning slightly, the maid asked with some confusion: "What does that have to do with His Majesty's current attitude?"

"You have been with me for so many years, and it is not uncommon at home. How many concubines does the master have? Have you ever seen any fights? If they fight each other, who dares to cause trouble? Who dares to cause trouble for the madam?" Concubine Duan looked at the maid.

, asked with a smile.

"Of course no one dares to cause trouble to Madam, and no one dares to do anything excessive, because the relationship between Master and Madam is so good, and they treat each other like guests." Suddenly the maid was stunned and looked at Concubine Duan in surprise, in disbelief.

He said: "Your Majesty, that's what I said!"

Nodding slowly, Concubine Duan said in a deep voice: "That's it. What the emperor is doing now is to consolidate the status of the queen. If the emperor still favors Concubine Lan at this time, once Concubine Lan gives birth to a son, she will have the throne.

There was a dispute. Although the queen's son was legitimate, how many queens had been deposed throughout the ages? The emperor was cold at this time.

Concubine Luolan dotes on the queen and even ignores us two concubines. She has only one purpose, which is to consolidate the queen's status. The emperor wants all of us to know that the queen's status is unshakable. Don't

Do you have any unreasonable thoughts? This family dinner tonight should be for the emperor to see if we understand!"

She nodded in understanding, and the maid said in disbelief: "How did you see so many things in this place?"

Shaking her head gently, Concubine Duan just smiled indifferently but said nothing. Naturally, she would not tell the maid. This was her mother telling her that this was what her father did back then. Everyone who just entered the house

Everyone would be cold and let her know that things are hard to come by and should be cherished and not have any inappropriate thoughts. However, Concubine Duan was a little curious, how did this young emperor understand this?

"Your Majesty, can Concubine Wang Liang understand?" the maid asked curiously as she put the shawl on Concubine Duan.

"The three of us this time all come from relatively well-to-do families, and they all know about these things, so no one doesn't understand." Duan Guifei smiled softly and said calmly.

Gently brightening the lights, Chen Hong walked slowly to Emperor Tianqi's side and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, it's getting late, and the three empresses are already here. Will Your Majesty come over?"

Gently rubbing his forehead, Emperor Tianqi smiled bitterly and said: "As the saying goes, three women perform a show. This time I bring three women together. I don't know if there will be a good show. Okay,

Please tidy up this place! I’ll go take a look.”

When Emperor Tianqi came to the back, three women were already waiting here. They didn't know what they were talking about, but they could hear laughter from a distance.

Slowly walking into the room, Emperor Tianqi looked a little strange. He glanced at a few people and said with a smile: "What are you talking about?"

"I see you, Your Majesty!" When the three of them saw Emperor Tianqi coming, they quickly stood up and saluted.

After waving to the three of them, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "Don't worry about so much when you are a married couple. You have been in the palace for a while. I am really too busy and I have neglected you. Don't take it personally!"

Several people sat down, and Concubine Duan said with a smile: "The emperor wants to be a wise king in the prosperous times, and it is inevitable to deal with all kinds of things every day. How can the concubines be angry!"

Looking at the charming Concubine Duan and Concubine Wang, Emperor Tianqi suddenly had an evil idea, is it possible?
