The imperial concubine sneered: "although the spirit concubine is beautiful, it can't compare with the elegant demeanor of the empress of Ming Dynasty."
Xiao Jintang looked at his mother in surprise, "mother, why are you..."
The imperial concubine slowly got up from the soft couch and straightened her sleeve, "why do you want to ask me to speak for my rival?"
Xiao Jintang nodded awkwardly.
"In fact, if it wasn't for your father, I would appreciate the empress of the Ming Dynasty. She is beautiful and has a good family background. She plays the lute well and is famous in Beijing. It's a pity that life is a little thin. "
When she said this, the expression on her face was so obscure that Xiao Jintang hardly dared to look directly at her.
"There is no resemblance between that Lingfei and her appearance. Interestingly, when she droops her head, she is somewhat similar to empress Ming. Ling Fei is ambitious, but when she faces the emperor, her eyes are very astringent, just like when the emperor was the only one in her eyes at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. I guess the emperor also likes her
Xiao Jintang frowned when he heard that. He didn't understand this feeling very well. "Doesn't father like the empress of Ming Dynasty? Although he is a hairy wife, his father only goes to the queen on the 15th day of the first day of junior high school... How can he spoil her because of a woman who looks like the queen of Ming Dynasty? "
This is ridiculous. He can't figure it out.
The imperial concubine turned around, went to the table, dropped her eyes and poured tea, "you are still young, and it's normal that you don't understand. This person, no matter men or women, what you can't get is always the best.". How can a man dislike a woman like empress Ming? When the queen is here, he doesn't cherish it. When the queen dies, he will think of others' kindness. "
Looking at the imperial concubine, Xiao Jintang hesitated and said, "what's the matter with your mother today? You seem dissatisfied with your father? "
The imperial concubine came over with a teacup and handed it to him, "tang'er, where is anyone in the harem devoted to your father? Ah, there may have been, but no one, no more. Mother's concubine just saw through, don't you understand? It's better to be proud of yourself than to count on your father. If she only listened to your father, she would have no idea where she was buried. "
Xiao Jintang took the cup and felt a little uneasy.
"You can forget what you and my mother and son said today. Ling Fei is not afraid. What you need to do now is to try to win over the courtiers. The prince has come to you. When he returns, his prestige in the court will be different. I don't know how many people are waiting to flatter him at that time."
This is what Xiao Jintang is most worried about. Now he is mercilessly pointed out by the imperial concubine, and he has no mind to think about anything else.
"Mother, what should I do? Although the minister now has contact with the Ministry of rites and the Ministry of war, the two books are all old foxes, so they are not willing to let go. "
"It's normal. The situation is not clear yet. They won't stand in line easily. You can start with the imperial examination next year. It's hard for poor people to get ahead. If someone can help them, they will be very grateful."
"Also," the imperial concubine said with deep meaning, "King Annan has made great contributions this time, and your father and Emperor intend to reward him."
Xiao Jintang's spirit was shocked: "reward? But king Annan's mansion can no longer be sealed in the Jin Dynasty. The son of the world has been set up. The third son has been sealed as Marquis Anle, and the second son is said to have no intention of officialdom but to be devoted to business. Who else is there
His heart moved, and his eyes suddenly brightened. "The meaning of his mother's concubine is --"
"Shh" the imperial concubine's index finger stands in front of her lips.
