Two days later, Lu Jiao and the imperial physician of Qi in the palace operated on Shangguan Rong, the fifth prince of Xiliang, and the operation was very successful, and the leg of Shangguan Rong, the fifth prince, would be fine.Shangguan Rong was indescribably happy, the whole person was very excited, inside and outside the words, that is, he would become the prince of Xiliang, and when he ascended to the throne, he would forever keep Xiliang and Da Zhou peaceful...It's just that the one who listens is also listening, and he is the only one there who is excited.In the afternoon after Lu Jiao and Qi Lei performed surgery on Shangguan Rong, the people from the 12th Nomadic Department of Beiqi entered Beijing.Compared with the people of Xiliang Kingdom, the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty hated the people of the twelve nomadic tribes of Beiqi very much, and many people ran to see the excitement, and at the same time prepared to smash their rotten eggs, but they were all stopped by Xiao Wenyu sent out to maintain the order of the five cities of the soldiers and horses, the twelve nomadic tribes came to Beijing to seek peace, they must have the bearing of a great power, but the compensation should not be less.Before the envoys of Xiliang entered Beijing, Xiao Wenyu should have set up a palace banquet to entertain the envoys of Xiliang, but Xiao Wenyu has not held a palace banquet, in fact, he got the news from the people of the twelve nomadic tribes, and they will arrive in Beijing soon, so Xiao Wenyu has been waiting for the arrival of the people of the twelve nomadic tribes, so that they can hold a palace banquet together.When the twelve nomadic tribes arrived in Beijing, he immediately ordered someone to prepare a palace banquet.The queen in the palace was confined in Chaoyang Palace, Concubine Nie was just a small concubine, and the palace did not host the palace banquet to summon the principal of the foreign woman, so Xiao Wenyu asked Zhou Youjin to invite Lu Jiao into the palace.Lu Jiao thought about it and didn't object, and took Ruan Zhu and the waiting people into the palace, and Shangguan Yunyan also accompanied her into the palace.In fact, Lu Jiao doesn't need to worry about the palace banquet, she just needs to sit in the palace.Everyone in the Great Zhou Dynasty knew that she was His Majesty's adoptive mother, and let her sit in the palace and entertain foreign women, and no one would gossip.All the affairs of the palace banquet are handled by Concubine Nie, she has been in charge of palace affairs for a period of time, and she knows everything about palace affairs, and she does not need Lu Jiao to worry about it.However, Concubine Nie is very low-key, as soon as Lu Jiao entered the palace, she brought someone over to greet Lu Jiao, and at the same time handed the things arranged at the palace banquet to Lu Jiao, so that she could palm, and she was very low-key from beginning to end, and she was not high-profile just because she was in charge of palace affairs.Lu Jiao looked at Concubine Nie a few more times, in fact, Concubine Nie looked very good, and she was born in the Duke of Wuguo, which was good in itself, in the past, when the Emperor asked Lu Jiao to help with the palm, Concubine Nie was not at the concubine selection banquet, so Lu Jiao did not choose her.Lu Jiao thought and sighed, and she didn't know what the Four Treasures meant now?
If he said that he fell in love with Concubine Nie, but did not raise Concubine Nie as a concubine, if he didn't take a fancy to Concubine Nie, but let her take charge of the palace affairs.Lu Jiao looked at the arrangements for the palace banquet in her hand, and everything was fine."
You've done a good job, you've worked hard."
Concubine Nie shook her head with a smile: "It's not hard, Your Majesty believes in the concubine body, which is the blessing of the concubine body." ”Lu Jiao saw that she spoke sincerely, and her tone was full of joy.She couldn't help but look at it twice, and at this glance, she found that when Concubine Nie talked about the four treasures, her eyebrows and eyes were very gentle, and she seemed to like the four treasures.Looking at Concubine Nie, Lu Jiao couldn't help but think of the queen, the queen seemed to rarely have such a gentle and affectionate look, she didn't want to lower her figure for men, men like the new and hate the old, Lu Jiao also knew her thoughts, afraid of being hurt, so she was on guard against men and loved herself more.In fact, Lu Jiao herself and Wang Mengyao are the same kind of people, and she met Xie Yunjin before she finally got a good home.But Wang Mengyao met the emperor, and you are separated from the emperor by one layer, and you will eventually break up.Lu Jiao didn't know what to say, she looked at Concubine Nie, thinking about whether to help her say something in front of Sibao, otherwise what would Sibao do for the rest of her life?
It's not good that there is no one to accompany you.Lu Jiao was thinking about it, when the eunuch outside the palace came in to report: "Mrs.
Zhou, the crown prince brought the eldest prince and the second princess to come over to greet Mrs. ”As soon as she heard that the crown prince and the eldest princess were coming, Lu Jiao immediately waved her hand: "Please let them in." ”She herself stood up and took Concubine Nie to greet her, the prince happened to walk in, and Lu Jiao immediately spoke respectfully with Concubine Nie: "The courtiers have seen the prince." ”Although Concubine Nie is Xiao Wenyu's concubine, she is also very polite to the prince.The prince hurriedly walked over and helped Lu Jiao up, he was slightly unhappy in his heart, feeling that his grandmother didn't seem to be like him now, but he didn't say it."
Grandmother, don't be so polite to Lonely, get up quickly."
Lu Jiao thanked her again before getting up, she smiled and cared about the prince's studies and how he ate and lived recently.The crown prince and the eldest princess were talking with questions and answers, and the second princess on one side was also very happy, reaching out to hold Lu Jiao's hand and shaking it."
Grandmother, can you go and see the cats raised by the stars?
It's so cute and cute. ”Lu Jiao looked down at the second princess, stretched out her hand and hugged her, to be honest, she likes the second princess very much, her eyes are clean and clear, when she looks at people, she has no distractions at all, which makes people like it when they see it."
Well, where is your cat, grandmother will accompany you to see it."
The crown prince immediately glared at the second princess, and then spoke: "Grandmother, can the grandson ask you to accompany the queen mother to talk?"
The queen mother must be very lonely when she stays alone in Chaoyang Palace, and her grandson is very worried about her, but her father has issued a grounding order, and her grandson can't accompany her, if only her grandmother could go and talk to her. ”Lu Jiao turned around and looked at the prince, she was very upset, she didn't want to get involved in the affairs between the emperor and the queen, but the prince repeatedly made these requests, what did he want to do, Lu Jiao knew very well, didn't she want to use her and Xie Yunjin's hands to force Xiao Wenyu to relieve the queen's feet and let the queen come out?
This prince is really a good son of the queen, of course, Lu Jiao doesn't blame him for being a good son, ten-year-old children are basically in love with their mothers, but he knows that they are unwilling to mix these things, so he insists on it, which is a bit of a problem.The prince looked at Lu Jiaowang and thought of the queen mother's advice, and his eyes immediately turned red: "I'm just worried about the queen mother, if the grandmother doesn't want to, forget it." ”Lu Jiao grinned lightly, but the smile was a little cold, and she spoke: "I can go to visit the queen mother, but only this time, if there is a next time?"
”She didn't say anything more, but her voice was indescribably cold.The prince raised his head in fear, Lu Jiao was no longer willing to look at him again, turned to look at Nie Concubine and said, "You are worried about the affairs of the palace banquet, I will go to Chaoyang Palace for a visit, and we will talk later." ”"Yes, ma'am."
Lu Jiao turned around and took Shangguan Yunyan and the others to Chaoyang Palace, and the prince's face was pale and pale, and the uneasiness in his heart increased.The eldest princess on one side couldn't help muttering: "Brother Huang, you shouldn't always force your grandmother to do what she doesn't want to do." ”The prince turned around and looked at the eldest princess, and said unhappily: "Do you remember who raised you?"
”The eldest princess choked and didn't dare to speak, this is the crown prince, she can't offend him.The prince turned around and walked out, the eldest princess had to follow him out, and the second princess trotted to Nie Concubine's side and reached out to hold Nie Concubine's hand.Concubine Nie retracted her eyes, looked down at the second princess with a smile, thinking of what the prince had done, she didn't know what to say, this one was afraid that she was dying, just like his mother.However, Concubine Nie doesn't care about the queen's affairs now, she worries about her own affairs, His Majesty neither raises her as a concubine, nor pampers her, and doesn't know what it means?
Concubine Nie suddenly thought of the stunning-looking woman beside Mrs.
Zhou Guo before, if such a beautiful woman was for His Majesty to see, she wouldn't take a fancy to her, and Mrs.
Zhou Guo took that woman into the palace, what does it mean?
I don't want to sacrifice her to His Majesty.Concubine Nie couldn't help but worry, if His Majesty took a fancy to that woman, what position would she have, what would she do?
Lu Jiao didn't know Nie Concubine's thoughts, and took Shangguan Yunyan and others all the way to Chaoyang Palace.There are people guarding outside the gate of Chaoyang Palace, and idlers can't enter Chaoyang Palace, but Mrs.
Zhou Guo is different, she is His Majesty's adoptive mother, His Majesty has made a decree before, she can accompany everywhere in the palace, and the eunuch guarding the door saw that she wanted to enter Chaoyang Palace, and did not stop her.Lu Jiao led a group of people into Chaoyang Palace, and the queen got the news and immediately brought someone out to greet her.Now she no longer has the high spirits she used to have, she is thin and haggard, and she sees Lu Jiao even more tearful and pitiful, but unfortunately Lu Jiao has no pity for her, this is a selfish woman who only thinks about herself, in the past, as the queen of the four treasures, she was afraid of being hurt, and she didn't know how to pay her sincerity to men, and now she didn't hesitate to use her son in order to let herself come out.The prince ran in front of them three times and twice to do something, and it was not surprising that these were all instructed by the queen.The reason why Lu Jiao took this trip was also to have a good talk with the queen, whether she really planned to die of her son before she was willing."
Mother, have you come to see me?"
The queen looked at Lu Jiao with tears in her voice.
