Chapter 117 Draft Completed
Chapter 117 Draft Completed
When Leng Xiqing woke up again, the final list had been delivered to her hands. Leng Xiqing rubbed her neck, which was slightly sore from sleeping for too long.
Without changing her clothes, she put on a coat and sat on the couch. Qingmei and others quickly got her a coat. After Leng Xiqing put it on, she lazily leaned on the couch and flipped through the roster.
Only two people left in the afternoon?There were only eight people left in this draft. Leng Xiqing frowned, Shen Yixue?Why does it sound so familiar?
Qingzhu beside him saw Leng Xiqing frowning, so he poked his head and took a look, "Master, you forgot? This person lives in the same house as Master Xu."
Leng Xiqing raised his eyebrows. This was going to be a good show. Because Xu Xinwan was too strong, the mothers casually arranged for several minor officials' daughters to live in the same house with her. In the end, only Shen Yixue stayed. .
"Master, the Imperial Concubine said that the positions of all the young masters will be decided today. It will be dinner soon, so you and the Xian Concubine can make an appointment first. Once the list is finalized, the Imperial Concubine will decide later. Take a moment and pass it to His Majesty."
"After the positions are determined tomorrow, we will go to Huaqing Palace to discuss allocating palaces to them."
Leng Xiqing nodded and continued to look at the roster. Of the many beautiful ladies, Guo Qian only left eight. Leng Xiqing couldn't help but curl his lips, how picky they were.
Leng Xiqing felt that Qingzhu had been staring at her, and when he turned around, he looked at Qingzhu. Qingzhu looked confused and hesitated to speak. Leng Xiqing was a little funny, "What do you want to say? You are so confused?"
Qingzhu pouted, "The Queen Mother is a little unhappy, saying that Her Majesty has chosen too few people, and that Her Majesty only favors the Queen, so she should be equally affected by rain and dew. We have just sent the nuns to talk about the relationship between the Imperial Concubine and Xian." The concubine, she said that we must be harmonious and generous, and we must not be doted on alone or anything like that..."
Leng Xiqing saw the aggrieved look on her face and said, "Okay, okay, then won't grandma come to our palace?"
The system nestled next to Leng Xiqing, "Meow~ Of course you are here, but you are sleeping, and grandma waited for you for a long time without waking up. She, Qingmei and the others gave a lecture and left."
Leng Xiqing licked his lips in embarrassment. Did she avoid being lectured because she was too sleepy?
In the Queen Mother's Palace, Guo Qian was sitting at the bottom. There was a slight low pressure in the whole palace. The Queen Mother sighed, "I know she saved you, but after all, she has a special status. Now that a new person has entered the palace, you dote on her like this. Aren’t we going to push her to the public eye?”
"The late emperor doted on his concubine alone, which caused chaos in the harem. You don't..."
Before the Queen Mother finished speaking, Guo Qian frowned and interrupted the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, what kind of character is she? What kind of character is the imperial concubine? The first imperial concubine was coquettish and willful, and took human life seriously, but the imperial concubine has never been like this."
"What's more, the chaos in the late emperor's harem was caused by the late emperor's greed for beauty and the numerous women in the harem."
The Queen Mother sighed, "If you don't have enough heirs, she has a special status. All day long, you..."
The Queen Mother still didn't say the second half of her sentence, and Guo Qian frowned and remained silent.
The Queen Mother rubbed her brows and resisted the itchiness in her throat, "Well, if you really dote on her, you have to protect her with open swords and hidden attacks in the harem, don't be like..."
Guo Qian frowned, "..." He didn't say anything. He was silent for a long time, looking at the Queen Mother's slightly aged face, "I will give the Yu family another child."
The Queen Mother lowered her head and said sarcastically, "Although the Ai family is the daughter of the Yu family, I am also your mother-in-law. There is no hope for a man from the Yu family to rise, so he can only rely on women..."
"That's all, you can go back. Just let things happen with the Yu family, and the emperor doesn't have to force it too hard."
Guo Qian lowered his eyes, stood up and saluted, "My son, please leave."
After Guo Qian left, the Queen Mother coughed violently, and later vomited a mouthful of blood. The nanny beside her tried to call the imperial doctor, but the Queen Mother caught her and said, "No... no, cough!"
Grandma looked at the Queen Mother distressedly, "Why are you doing this?"
The Queen Mother stroked her heart and said, "It's an old problem. Your Majesty's affairs are in a hurry, and the Queen has just left. It's not a big deal for me. Just go and make me a bowl of medicine prescribed by Dr. Zhao."
The nanny had no choice but to get up and leave. The queen mother collapsed on the couch, stroking her heart. This was the root of the disease left behind when she was abused by the imperial concubine in her early years. The imperial doctor visited her several times but to no avail, so she could only nurse her.
But recently, she has been feeling more and more that this body seems to be increasingly out of her control, her movements are very slow, and her whole body is weak...
The Queen Mother let out a long sigh of relief, is her time coming...
