The Prince Regent’s Violent Medical Consort Chapter 53: The Queen’s Way
Chapter 53 The Queen's Means
After Prime Minister Xia and Mrs. Linglong left the Shou'an Palace, Madam Yang caught up.
"Madam, the Queen Mother invites you to the Jingning Palace for a cup of tea."
Jingning Palace is the palace where the Queen lives, and Mrs. Linglong naturally knows it.
Prime Minister Xia looked at Mammy Yang vigilantly, "What's the matter with the Empress?"
Mother Yang smiled and said, "Nothing, just have a cup of tea and chat."
Prime Minister Xia thought for a while, "Then, the Prime Minister will also go with him."
Mother Yang bowed her body, "Master Xiang, let's go back first, the Empress and Madam are only talking about women's family affairs, and Master Xiang should not be present."
Mrs. Linglong knew that the queen left her alone, and it was absolutely impossible to just chat. She remembered that she had just made no statement in the queen dowager's palace. Would the queen want to blame herself?
But the empress dowager is not guilty, what can the empress say?
She grabbed Prime Minister Xia's sleeve and said worriedly: "Master, my concubine can't go to Jingning Palace alone. Otherwise, please let Concubine Mei accompany my concubine."
Xia Chengxiang said: "Okay, you go with the mammy first, and the prime minister finds the concubine Mei."
Mother Yang laughed, but her brows and eyes were stern, "Master Xiang, please don't disturb the concubine Mei."
Prime Minister Xia smiled back, "Women are afraid of things, so it's always a good thing to have relatives with you."
Mother Yang said indifferently: "Then go with Mr. Xiang, but this family member can't help but remind the servant that Miss Xia and Mr. Xiang are also relatives."
Mrs. Linglong is really fed up today. In the Queen Mother's Shou'an Palace, the Regent is always targeting her, and even a servant next to the Queen Mother dares to scold her. Now, the Queen Mother Yang has repeatedly spoken out against her. , where did these qi suffer in Fuzhong in the past?
She looked at Mammy Yang and said coldly, "The Empress Dowager doesn't even ask about the family affairs of the Prime Minister's mansion. You are a servant, how dare you talk about the minister's family affairs? How many heads do you have to lose?"
Mother Yang smiled instead of being angry, "The head of the slave is here. If Madam wants to take it, just take it."
Mrs. Linglong angrily said, "How dare you despise me like this? I am also the Prime Minister's wife."
Prime Minister Xia looked at Mrs. Linglong's hideous face, and the disgust in his heart rose again. In fact, he didn't think he had found a superficial woman before. When he met her, she was very talented. She did a very good job. Later, he said that because he was afraid of Yuan Shi's jealousy, he vowed to seal the pen and stop painting. He only thought that she was generous and gave up a lot for him.
Therefore, even though her performance in the later life did not satisfy him too much, but seeing that she gave birth to a pair of children for him and gave up her interest in painting, he felt that he could understand and endure it.
However, today the Empress Dowager said that compared with Yuan Shi, Yuan Shi is a hundred times better than her, and he couldn't stand it all at once.
That's how men are. He doesn't think it's a problem, but when others say it, especially when someone with a higher status than him, something strange begins to appear in his heart.
"Okay, Mrs. Prime Minister, please!" Madam Yang said sarcastically.
Mrs. Linglong said stubbornly, "No, I won't go. If there is anything wrong with the Empress, please order someone to declare the decree in the mansion."
Prime Minister Xia pulled away Mrs. Linglong and lowered her voice to warn: "You must not offend the Queen again today, otherwise, Wan'er will never want to marry the Crown Prince."
Mrs. Linglong didn't expect to go up to this floor for a while, but when she heard Prime Minister Xia's words, she panicked, "How about that?"
Prime Minister Xia thought for a moment, "Today, you must suffer some grievances, let's go, the empress will not do anything to you, I will go to the concubine Mei immediately, and let her go over and watch, With Concubine Mei around, the Queen should have some scruples."
"But..." Mrs. Linglong was flustered, but after thinking about it, she felt that there was nothing to panic. Since the empress dowager just said that she would not pursue the matter of repentance, the empress can't embarrass her about this matter.
Tell her to go, and at most she will be reprimanded, and she will take it.
"Alright then, the concubine will go." Mrs. Linglong said.
She turned around, looked at Mama Yang, and said arrogantly, "Let's go, lead the way."
Mother Yang bowed and said sarcastically, "Mrs. Xiang, please."
Prime Minister Xia was extremely annoyed, but could not attack, so he walked away coldly.
After Prime Minister Xia left, Madam Yang stood still and looked at Madam Linglong, "The Queen has an order, in order to pray for the Queen Mother within the month of Guanyin's birthday, all female relatives who enter the palace must kneel three times. Nine knocks to Jingning Palace."
When Mrs. Linglong heard this, she went crazy with anger, "Why do you have to kneel and kowtow to the Jingning Palace three times for blessing? This is clearly embarrassing people."
Mother Yang said indifferently: "It's not aimed at Madam. When the eldest lady entered the palace, she also knelt three times and nine times to the Jingning Palace, and she went in all the way from the palace gate, presumably Madam knows about this matter. Yes, even the eldest lady has to enter the palace like this, as a concubine, can you have the privilege?"
Mother Yang deliberately emphasized the word Madam, showing her irony.
"You..." Madam Linglong was so angry that her face was blue, but she was unwilling to kneel, she clenched her fist and said, "I won't kneel, unless the Queen personally orders it."
Mother Yang said: "The slave maid ordered on behalf of the empress. This is the meaning of the empress. Madam is unwilling. Do you want to pray for the empress dowager? If so, the slave maid will return to the empress dowager first."
How dare Mrs. Linglong let her say this to the Queen Mother? Gritting his teeth, he knelt down, "Okay, if I pray for the empress dowager, I am willing."
These three kneels and nine kowtows were carried out consistently by Mammy Yang, and she asked Mrs.
Mrs. Linglong was so full of anger that she almost burst into tears. She had never suffered such grievances before.
The queen has already returned to Jingning Palace first. When she returned to the palace, she watched Mrs. Linglong kneeling in from a distance.
She stood in front of the porch, looked at Mrs. Linglong coldly, and asked Zian next to her, "Do you know why Ben Gong did this?"
Zi'an's gaze was in the same direction as her projection, but she felt that it was pointless for the queen to do so. She treated her in the palace, and she was still vicious when she returned to the palace.
"I know, the maiden is standing up for the courtiers and daughters." Zi An said.
The queen shook her head slowly, "No, with her temperament, it is useless for Ben Gong to stand up for you here. Ben Gong wants your father to see that your mother is far superior to her."
"The minister and daughter don't understand." Zi An was a little puzzled.
There is a cold light in the queen's eyes, "To rule people is to rule the heart."
Zi An still didn't understand, and looked at the queen suspiciously.
The queen asked her sideways, "Do you know the story of your father and Chen Linglong?"
Zi An said: "I don't know, but I heard that I admire Chen Linglong's talent."
The queen sneered, "What kind of talent does Chen Linglong have? You have been in the mansion for many years, have you seen it? Back then, your father was attracted by a painting that was not painted by Chen Linglong, but painted by your mother. .”
Zi An snorted, she was really shocked, she really didn't know about it.
