Chapter 1629 She has many advantages
After Eunuch Qin stood up, the Queen wanted to invite him to the palace for tea.
"Your Majesty, I won't drink the tea. I have to go to Concubine Yu later..."
After saying this, Eunuch Qin subtly noticed the Queen's expression.
It had been a long time since anyone in the palace mentioned the Queen. But when someone did, it was always to lament her jealousy with mixed feelings.
In the past, if other concubines were mentioned in front of the Queen, the Queen would react with extreme hurt and unbearable pain.
The Queen was kind to Concubine Yu in the six months before she gave birth to the fifth princess.
Maybe people always need a friend or someone to talk to. At that time, the queen was full of hostility towards other concubines in the harem, and she was angry with the emperor and couldn't speak to him. So after Yupin, who looked very elegant and kind and seemed to have a very indifferent personality, entered the palace, the queen inexplicably became closer to her.
However, after Concubine Yu was favored by the emperor and became pregnant with the fifth princess, the queen may have felt betrayed, or may have been deceived by Concubine Yu's appearance, so she stopped interacting with her.
After living in the Buddhist temple for a few years, she refused to allow anyone to visit her, and she had probably not had any contact with Concubine Yu for more than ten years.
Now when the Queen heard Eunuch Qin talking about Concubine Yu, no, Concubine Yu, she looked a little dazed.
When Eunuch Qin saw the Empress's expression, he knew that the Empress had also heard that Concubine Yu had been promoted to Concubine Yu.
Sure enough, the Queen asked him, "She has a good relationship with the Emperor recently, right?"
Otherwise, how could she suddenly be promoted to Concubine Yu?
"I heard before that she has been living in seclusion with Xiaowu these past few years and hasn't had much contact with the emperor. Could it be all fake?"
When Nanny Huan heard what the Queen said, she guessed that the Queen was now somewhat resentful towards Concubine Yu.
Maybe you feel you've been deceived again?
Because when the Empress heard that Concubine Yu had taken the Fifth Princess to live in a side hall and rarely came out, she said that she might have misunderstood Concubine Yu before, and that Concubine Yu might not have been favored by the Emperor voluntarily.
But now Yupin has appeared again and was suddenly promoted to the position of concubine. The Queen Mother might feel slapped in the face, right?
Eunuch Qin may feel that he has no right to answer this question, and whatever he says is wrong. How can a servant like him have the right to interrupt the emotional entanglement between the emperor and the empress?
He was silent for a moment, then said, "My Lady, people change."
The queen's eyes were a little empty. She looked at a tree in front of her. Just then, a gust of wind blew by, blowing down a leaf. She suddenly felt a little desolate in her heart.
She sighed and said, "Yes, people always change. Even I feel that my mood has changed recently."
Eunuch Qin didn't follow her words and ask if there was any change in his state of mind. He just said, "After all, so many years have passed, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has grown up."
Eunuch Qin found that when he mentioned His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Queen's expression became somewhat complicated. She did not look like a mother who felt indebted to her child but was also loving.
His heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't figure out the reason for a moment, then he heard the Queen say, "Yes, when children grow up, they will always have their own ideas."
Eunuch Qin felt that the conversation could not continue any further, so he explained his purpose, "Your Majesty, I have come here on the orders of the Emperor to inquire whether Your Majesty will go to the Prince of Jin's Mansion tomorrow."
Go to Prince Jin’s Mansion?
When the queen was stunned, Nanny Huan whispered to her, "Your Majesty, tomorrow is the day of Prince Jin's wedding."
The Queen remembered.
She was about to speak when she saw a figure walk into her sight. The Queen was stunned and kept looking at the person who came.
Eunuch Qin also turned and looked over, his expression solemn, and he quickly bowed, "Your servant greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
The prince was a little surprised that Eunuch Qin had also come to the Buddhist temple.
He first bowed to the Empress, called her "Mother," and then asked, "Eunuch Qin, what business do you have with me, the Empress?"
Eunuch Qin repeated his purpose, "I, under the Emperor's order, have come to invite the Empress to the Prince of Jin's mansion tomorrow to attend the Prince of Jin's wedding ceremony."
The prince looked at the queen.
"This is consistent with my purpose."
"Does the Queen Mother agree?" asked the prince.
The Queen's expression was stern. "Eunuch Qin just said he was here to ask me if I wanted to go. I was just about to answer him."
She paused and said, "I don't want to go."
When these words were spoken, not only the Crown Prince and Eunuch Qin, but even Nanny Huan was stunned for a moment, looking a little anxious.
How could your Majesty speak so inhumanely?
Prince Jin is no other than the Crown Prince. For so many years, it has been Prince Jin who has protected His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Back then, it was the Empress who personally requested the Prince of Jin to help look after the Crown Prince. This effectively meant she was entrusting her own son to the Prince of Jin.
The King of Jin was just a young boy at that time.
Because of this affection and friendship, it is only right for the Queen Mother to attend this important event in the life of Prince Jin.
The prince came to his senses and said uncomfortably, "Mother, my uncle will be attending the ceremony tomorrow. He'll look a little lonely without his parents. My father will be there tomorrow too. Can't you come with him?"
"Grandfather is gone, and Concubine Long is also gone. With you and Father sitting in the high seats, it will be more lively for Uncle to pay his respects here."
"Furthermore, with you and the Emperor present, the guests will feel that this marriage is blessed and that the Royal Family is pleased to see it happen. Your appearance will also touch the Empress's aunt, and she will feel that we are all very happy to have her become part of our family."
The prince wanted to sound more affectionate.
This time he came to see his mother, hoping that she could attend the emperor's uncle's wedding, and that was his purpose.
The emperor's aunt's father is still missing, her mother died early, and the emperor's uncle now has no parents either.
The prince always felt a little sorry for them.
The Queen looked at him and said, "They haven't even gotten married yet, and the marriage isn't finalized yet, yet you call me Auntie, it's quite natural."
"Mother, the Imperial Aunt is a very good person. She is smart, generous, witty, decisive, courageous, and kind. If you meet her, you will definitely like her."
"You think so highly of her?"
"What I said is true and I am not exaggerating." The prince didn't mind that Eunuch Qin was here.
He vaguely knew that Eunuch Qin actually had a very good relationship with his uncle.
Although neither the emperor's uncle nor Eunuch Qin said it directly.
The queen looked at the prince with a meaningful look in her eyes.
Do you like Lu Zhaoling so much? You can actually list so many of her advantages in one breath.
The Queen even suspected that if she still didn't agree, the Prince would be able to list ten or eight of Lu Zhaoling's advantages.
Eunuch Tan also said at this time, "Empress, the Emperor wants you to go with him tomorrow. This is also what the Emperor wishes to see."
