"Before Huayang went to Lingshan Temple, I mentioned you many times to this palace. He said good things about you without any flaws. I thought Huayang was exaggerating, but now it seems that is not the case."
The queen looked at Gu Shufei with a kind expression.
"Princess Huayang is very good."
Gu Shufei's eyes were filled with warmth when he mentioned Huayang. She was his good friend.
"My son is naturally fine, but she seems to have had some unpleasant experiences with Yue Concubine before she left the palace."
As the queen spoke, she observed Gu Shufei's expression. Seeing that there was nothing unusual about Gu Shufei, she continued to speak, "This child is also ignorant sometimes. Yue Concubine is her father's concubine, how can she have a random conflict with her."
When Gu Shufei heard the queen's words of never leaving the concubine, she still didn't understand that the queen was deliberately testing her attitude towards the concubine.
Then she thought about another incident where she helped the queen during the autumn hunting. Perhaps this was the reason for her temptation.
So she spoke with a face full of righteous indignation: "Although Empress Yue is the emperor's concubine, she is too arrogant and domineering. Before she was canonized, she deliberately started a dispute with Hua Yang."
Seeing her look like this, the Queen smiled with satisfaction, and then quickly lowered her lips and said like a good mother, "Yue Concubine is still suffering from kidney failure after all. Besides, my poor Hua Yang is now I went to Lingshan Temple to teach and practice, and now the grudges can be considered settled."
It turns out that the queen's purpose is here. Isn't it because he wants to deal with Dai Yingyue but doesn't want to show up in person and get a bad reputation?
Therefore, it was naturally best to find her, someone who, besides Huayang, was the same generation as Yingyue who had grievances with her.
What a great move to kill someone with a borrowed knife. After Gu Shufei figured it out, she stopped pretending. He raised his head and looked directly at the Queen: "The Queen, Your Majesty, I have something important to report. Can you send off the extra people?"
Seeing Gu Shufei's approach, the queen immediately looked at the maid beside her. The maid nodded and led the other female envoys to retreat.
"It's just you and me now." The queen looked at Gu Shufei with a smile.
"The Queen, I don't actually like the Yue Concubine."
The queen looked at Gu Shufei with a calm smile and said nothing. Seeing this, Gu Shufei continued: "Concubine Yue is another woman who is good at confusing people's hearts. I would venture to guess that Concubine Yue is the one who has been favored the most by the Holy Master in recent days. So the empress sent me here today not to reminisce about old times, or to say that she is not a friend. It’s not just reminiscing about old times.”
"Sure enough, as Hua Yang said, you are a smart woman. Smart people should do smart things. Do you know what to do next?"
When Gu Shufei revealed what she was thinking, the queen was not angry, but rather surprised. After all, only smart people can do this well.
However, Gu Shufei's change of tone was not as surrendering to her as she imagined.
"The queen may think too highly of my daughter. I am just a little girl and she is really incapable of doing what the queen expects."
"I hope you will still think so after entering the palace."
The Empress smiled and watched Gu Shufei say only one sentence before turning and leaving the makeshift resting place.
Gu Shufei looked at the queen's back and felt a headache.
Why was he forced to participate in the palace fight? It's really funny. Were all powerful people in ancient times so domineering? Tell the truth.
Before Gu Shufei could think of a countermeasure, it was on the first night after returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Someone came from the palace to announce the Queen's decree.
Zhao was still doing the same thing, which made Gu Shufei's ears tingle. She is said to be smart and clever, but since she is engaged to the third prince, etiquette is indispensable as a future royal princess. Therefore, the Queen specially sent someone to take her into the palace and let her receive etiquette training from the palace nun.
It seems that the queen really can't wait to push herself into the palace and get in front of Dai Yingyue. So that Dai Yingyue can fight with him.
Ah, I'm not a dog.
Forget it, the troops will come to block the water and the earth will cover up. In this era, facing the oppression of the imperial power, what else can I do except obey?
I can't learn anything. Is it true that princes, generals, and ministers have the talent? 'Not to mention that the times are different, but simply speaking of identity, I am just a simple medical practitioner, and I really don't have any lofty ambitions.
In her own opinion, apart from being a bit of a dog, the Queen is still pretty good in other aspects. At least he was allowed to bring his two personal maids into the palace.
It was the morning after entering the palace.
It's still dark, and it's foggy outside. Gu Shufei was lying on the couch in a daze, doing something. She had returned to modern times, played with mobile phones, used 5G, and watched the wonderful life of TV.
"Miss Gu, Miss Gu."
Gu Shufei seemed to hear someone calling her. Opening her big, hazy eyes, the scene in front of her made her wake up instantly.
Standing in front of him was a middle-aged woman dressed like a woman. Under the candlelight, she could be seen wearing gray clothes, red lips, white teeth, a hook-like nose, and a pair of bright eyes. This combination reminded her of a woman named Guipo in a ghost movie who also dressed like this.
So unfortunately, her scream of "Ah——" not only frightened the people in front of her, but also frightened the female envoys who were guarding outside.
The misunderstanding was resolved after Gu Shufei completely sobered up.
Who would have thought that this nanny would be dressed in such a ghostly manner, and would be standing next to someone's bed so early in the morning? Only those who are not afraid are ghosts.
The teacher, the nanny, looked at Gu Shufei with a look of hatred.
"The Queen sent this old slave here to teach the future three princesses various etiquettes. Today, girl, you made three mistakes. Do you know where they are?"
Gu Shufei was completely confused. I just woke up and I made three mistakes?
He saw Gu Shufei staring at him in confusion. Auntie Xie looked at Gu Shufei across her face, "Since the girl doesn't know, then I'll have the guts to give you some advice."
"Please give me some advice."
Gu Shufei reacted immediately and looked at the old grandma in front of him with a respectful expression.
Seeing that Gu Shufei reacted very quickly, the old nanny's livid face looked better and she said, "Miss, do you know why you came to the palace?"
"Learn etiquette?" Become a thug for the queen?
"That's right. Since you are coming to the palace to learn etiquette, shouldn't you get up early and get ready on the first day?"
"yes……"
I didn’t get up very late either. Isn’t five o’clock in the morning the time to go to bed?
"This is the first mistake. Then I have another question, has the girl dressed up since she got up?"
"Nothing." Guess if you didn't talk to me, would I have gone to wash up?
Gu Shufei looked at the old woman perfunctorily.
"The third thing is that Miss Gu is not strict in her discipline. When the old slave came just now, no one informed me. May I ask where the maids around the girl are?"
Auntie Xi's three consecutive questions had already stunned Gu Shufei.
