Chapter 317: Fake Gold's Golden Finger
It's raining. After an autumn rain, the weather turns cold.
The Purple Palace, perhaps because it was too tall, or perhaps because Zhang Zhi was old, felt particularly cold.
The young eunuch dared not say a word. Although Xue Ze was the emperor's confidant, he seemed to be courting death. He was clamoring to see the emperor, but he was just a general, or whoever he was, he shouldn't have done that.
The emperor was looking at what he had found. He knew a little before, but now he knew three things, and there were still many things he didn't know. That's it...
The emperor didn't get angry. I used to think Xue Ze was honest, and his brothers probably had some skills and knew how to pretend. Anyway, I don't know how to judge people, so I'll just change. The Xue family is not only eating in an ugly way, they want to tear me apart!
The Xue family is arrogant, thinking that they have a share in the world; Xue Ze is even more arrogant now, thinking that I have let him down? Then what?
A eunuch came over and reported carefully: "General Xue went to Zhou's house."
The emperor has great majesty.
The Zhou family and the Liu family are similar, both are hard to deal with. Now Zhou Chong is dead, Chen Zongxi's son-in-law, so the two sides have joined forces to do something to the King of Wei. Xue Ze went to the Zhou family at this time, which was really good, and he basically ignored the generals.
The emperor found it ridiculous. Xue Ze used to have some knowledge, but now he has none at all.
Xue Ze is not difficult to deal with. The emperor is considering Chen Zongxi, the Zhou family, and Chen Sheng!
A eunuch came back to report: "Empress Hui wants to see you."
The emperor was stunned for a moment. Huipin rarely came to see him, especially to the Purple Palace. The emperor was in a good mood and said, "Call him."
After a while, Concubine Meng Hui came in and paid her respects to the emperor.
The Emperor had packed up and was in a better mood.
Meng Huipin was only in her early twenties, which was not too old or too young in the palace. Huipin was not the prettiest, but she had a good temperament and was very upright and spiritual. She was actually more generous than the queen, but she never stole the queen's limelight. She didn't compare herself with others in everything and just lived her own life.
Normally, it would be very tiring for Concubine Meng Hui to assist the Empress on the Empress Dowager's birthday. But the Emperor spoke up, and the Empress was very active and didn't want to give Concubine Meng Hui a chance to perform. Concubine Meng Hui didn't fight for it and was happy and at ease.
The emperor did not force her. Seeing that the woman was in a good mood, he personally pulled her up and sat her down on the couch.
This is the emperor's grace. Concubine Meng Hui sat upright and looked around.
Zhang Zhi hurriedly took the young eunuch and retreated.
The young eunuch knew a lot, the emperor would do that before. But he didn't expect that the most dignified Concubine Hui would also compete for favor?
Zhang Zhi kicked him. What are you thinking about? Can't you see that Concubine Hui is in trouble?
The emperor was still in a good mood. Looking at Concubine Hui, he felt itchy and it was not impossible to do it here, but Concubine Hui resisted.
Meng Huipin was very dignified and spoke to the emperor about serious matters: "I don't know whether this matter is big or small, so I have to tell Your Majesty and ask Your Majesty to make a decision."
The emperor then acted very wise. It was good to be able to look at Huipin.
Meng Huipin said slowly: "Today, Princess Yi'an brought the fake daughter of the Shen family into the palace to see the old lady. The old lady told me how filial and virtuous the fake daughter of the Shen family was, and said a lot of good things about her."
The emperor could imagine it, so he sneered: "Is the old lady in good health?"
Meng Huipin said casually: "The fake daughter of the Shen family is here."
The emperor actually laughed out loud.
Meng Huipin complained, then talked seriously about business: "The old lady also said that my brother and I are engaged to the eldest sister of the fake daughter of the Shen family, and we will be a real family from now on."
The Emperor hated it! He hated the Empress Dowager so much!
Meng Huipin reminded the emperor that this was the key point: "The fake daughter of the Shen family acted very dignified and virtuous, but I seemed to hear a voice telling me to praise the fake daughter of the Shen family and treat her as my sister in the future. I felt very strange. While looking at the fake daughter of the Shen family's expression, I echoed the old lady's words. I saw that the old lady was dissatisfied with my attitude, but the fake daughter of the Shen family looked quite proud."
Meng Huipin told the truth: "I have never seen anyone praise me. Princess Yi'an is even more dissatisfied with me. Her words make it seem like my brother is a playboy and cannot compare to the Sixth Master of the Shen family. She also said that my brother married a country girl. I am stupid and don't quite understand what she wants to say."
The emperor understood that Concubine Hui was a cunning person. She was perfunctory in her treatment of Liu. Liu and Yi'an were dissatisfied. But did the fake daughter of the Shen family think that was okay?
The emperor said: "A few years ago, I had a similar situation to yours, but I didn't pay much attention to it at the time."
Concubine Meng Hui was surprised that Shen Daomiao actually tried to control the emperor?
The emperor snorted coldly and told Huipin: "I was also in Changning Palace, and Liu was also praising the fake daughter of the Shen family. I didn't pay attention to it. It seems that there is a voice asking me to praise her a few words and make her a princess."
Meng Huipin opened her eyes wide, looking so adorable.
The emperor was now able to confirm it, and said disdainfully: "Using this method to control people? Xiaoxiao has a righteous heart and will not be influenced by her."
Meng Huipin's maiden name was Qingxiao, and her nickname was Xiaoxiao. She accepted the emperor's praise very well. She asked, "What should I do?"
The emperor said very simply: "Don't worry about her."
Meng Huipin understood that the fake daughter of the Shen family was just a nobody, so she didn't need to worry about her.
The emperor said: "The fake daughter of the Shen family has the ability to control people; the real daughter of the Shen family knows some things that are going to happen; the girl of the Yun family..." It's hard to describe.
Meng Huipin was very calm. She was thinking, is this all Shen Daomiao is capable of?
The emperor smiled and said, "The third daughter of the Yun family looks most like her grandfather." He added, "The eldest daughter of the Yun family looks like her grandmother."
Meng Huipin thought that the Yun family had great reputation. Both the old man and the old lady were remembered by the emperor. This was also a very good evaluation. With this evaluation, the Yun sisters would feel much better. Shen Daomiao was also asking for a word, but she asked for too much. She actually wanted to be a princess. Meng Huipin didn't know what she was thinking? Maybe she was jealous? How noble is a princess?
The emperor said: "The real daughter of the Shen family is ambitious; the fake daughter of the Shen family is ambitious. The girl of the Yun family, hide in the mountains."
Meng Huipin joked with the emperor: "That is a treasure mountain. How many people are eyeing that mountain and want to grab it?" She also said, "The fake daughter of the Shen family has also taken a fancy to me now. I am flattered."
The emperor was very disdainful of the Shen family. How long can the Shen family last with these means? I will definitely destroy it someday.
A eunuch came over and reported: "The old lady invites His Majesty to have dinner."
The emperor asked, "Is Shen still here?"
The eunuch replied carefully, "Yes."
The emperor asked, "Shen wants to stay in the palace?"
Meng Huipin said nothing, it had nothing to do with her. But she heard the sound again.
The emperor asked the eunuch to get out and looked at Concubine Hui curiously, as he had only heard of it once.
Meng Huipin listened to the vague voice and said to the emperor, "I advise your majesty to bring Prince Ye with him and say something good to him."
The emperor's eyes were a little deep.
Meng Huipin was a little curious. Did the Shen family still like Prince Ye? Perhaps it was because Prince Ye had not granted the marriage yet? Shen Daomiao was so arrogant that she couldn't be a concubine. She was still the legitimate daughter of the Shen family.
